Gigabrained environmentalism: we need to build over the green belt in order to move people out of the countryside and into the city

David Buchanan@retr0.id· 19 Jul 2023that's actually a kinda neat concept - letting people use "in game" currency to bet on the future like count of a post. This could give even stronger signals to feed algorithms than the raw like count.

1 4if you haven’t tried react query PLEASE give it a try!! It’s not just for fetching stuff, it’s for dealing with ALL asynchronous state in a beautiful way. you will never write a useEffect again
1 2I have 12k LoC for Graysky and 24 useEffects, almost all of which are either syncing with external state, like messing with react navigation, or invalidating/setting the react query cache. zero fetches :)
an old project from before I discovered RQ has almost twice as many useEffects per LoC
1Oh no cursed fix idea to graysky’s scroll position in threads being terrible: invert the flashlist and the data, then use onBottomReached to append to top
1 3I’ve tried so many things but literally every react native list thingy assumes each item is of fixed (or at least known) size!
1ok if the smell of burnt toast is the sign of a stroke, what’s gonna happen to me if I start smelling pringles???
1 2im scared guys. is it radiation poisoning? leprosy? has someone trapped my effigy in a pringles can?
