Re:How to lose $950 quickly on Airbnb on Sunday March 05, 2023 @05:00PM (#35034527)
This is correct. I had an issue with an Airbnb at some point that Airbnb was struggling to resolve. When I said "whatever, I'll just dispute the charge", the rep said that it is their policy to permanently suspend an account when a user initiates a chargeback. Not "may" but "definitely will". The issue did end up getting resolved after countless phone calls and escalating the issue to supervisors of supervisors but

I don't think you'd be able to find Desoxyn outside of the US (and ever here it's incredibly rare to get it prescribed & then also successfully fill it at a pharmacy). Most of the EU has negative attitudes towards ADHD meds, especially immediate release ones. AFAIK, the only amphetamine many countries have is Vyvanse, because it's XR and "abuse resistant". I was actually doing some research about whether I will be able to keep getting Desoxyn if I move back outside of the US (anywhere, really) and the answer seems to be a NO. I think NZ/AU might have a special scheme for giving a person an exception when other treatments have failed, but that's about it.
Can confirm. Desoxyn is the only stimulant that works for me. Other stimulants usually do less in terms of positive effects _and_ have more side effects. Vyvanse was probably my second best so far, though it was still unpleasant and if I didn't land on Desoxyn, I'm not sure I would be putting up with Vyvanse. Adderall was a fucking hell.

Hey, I’m Gosha.

I see how programming is just connecting business objectives with reality, not a craft unto itself. Languages are all the same to me. (I also wrote toy languages and primitive type systems.)

Re:Should you store your form state in Redux? on Friday August 25, 2017 @06:24AM (#15097389)
You can't always know in advance, and that's perfectly cool. The bigger point I'm making is, put things into Redux only once they become global.

It could be argued that migrating to Redux can be non-trivial, but there are certain things you can do to ease the potential transition.

In particular, there is nothing stopping you from applying the Redux approach on the scale of just one component, by not mutating the state in the component directly, but instead by creating small "action reducer" functions which return the new state. Kinda similar to what ReasonML with React tries to do.

Roughly something along the lines of:

    function changeEmail(state, event) {
      return { ...state, email: event.target.value };
    }

    class FormComponent extends Component {
      // ...
      handleEmailChange = (evt) => {
        this.setState(state => changeEmail(state, evt));
      };
    }
Afterwards, it's easy to migrate this to Redux:

1. Instead of `setState(state => changeEmail(...))` you would dispatch an action.

2. Instead of getting the current value from this.state you would get it from this.props.

3. The `changeEmail` function can trivially become a branch in the form's reducer function.

Re:Ask HN: Swift or Objective-C for new iOS app in 2017? on Wednesday January 25, 2017 @03:08AM (#13479650)
Depends on the app, but for most I'd say React Native will be suitable.

I used to do native iOS apps in the past, but I've always been more of a web developer than native. This winter, I did a client project in React Native (http://goshakkk.name/works/12min-mobile/) and the experience has been very positive on the iOS side (RN + Android is another story...)

Almost everything you know about React.js holds true in RN. The CSS-like styling and layout with Flexbox are a godsend. ES6 with Flow is type safe, mostly.
