not exactly sqlite-lite, but it's sqlish and it's build on top of IDB: https://github.com/google/lovefield

Make a version that has active cooling and I'll buy 2 and wear the extra to work.

And JavaScript, of course. Usually these are titled "JavaScript Developer" but they really mean "CoffeeScript Developer" and no thanks.

All of the opinionating is really to say it only makes sense if it's what you want to do. I happen to like programming (including JavaScript) so I do back and front end. If you don't like JavaScript don't do front end because it can and will get complex, and JavaScript doesn't help you manage complexity.

That said, if your plan is to work on web applications, the more JavaScript you know, the more valuable you'll be (in theory) to your employer/client.

tl;dr maybe

I did run into some performance problems (rendering huge lists into complex tables), but I was able to iron them out for the most part. The only downside, which is definitely not unique to Vue, was debugging--a ton of functions get called in the Vue code when model data changes, so it can be tricky to find the right combination of breakpoints to set to track down why what you're expecting to happen isn't happening.

UI/UX, Django and Flask, all things front-end and game dev. Self-taught, loads of experience. I've done coding and visual design: for consumer and b2b products; independently for small businesses; in-house, producing marketing sites and internal tools; for fun and profit nights and weekends. Extremely eager to learn and grow and make.

About: Full-stack developer, visual designer, writer. I enjoy being involved in all aspects of product development. Over the course of my career I've done everything from writing and editing copy to designing billboards, developing complex user interfaces and high-performance server applications. I'm always experimenting with new languages (most recently Elixir). I prefer smaller teams/businesses, but more importantly I want to work on interesting problems with interesting people.

I have an alarm clock/lamp that slowly increases light and audio levels (I have it set to bird sounds). It's great for a gentle wake-up, but the bird sounds get repetitive if you don't snooze/turn it off after 20 seconds or so.

My biggest issue with Napwell, aside from the obnoxious information desert that is its homepage, is that I could never fall asleep with a thing strapped to my face.

It's built in node-webkit [1] though, so it wouldn't (shouldn't) be too hard to integrate websql, sqlite or some other database [2].

It's one thing to easily obtain my own personal mail server, it's another entirely to understand and be able to maintain/improve it.

FF 28 seems to be working fine with the "Weenie Hut Jr." version...is it just the add-on that isn't supported?

awesome tech, btw

source? genuinely curious if those words are written somewhere.

It would seem to me that the IRS should tax income, specifically income that I can use to pay taxes (or which can reasonably and reliably be converted into something that I can use to pay taxes).

I'd love to send 40% of last week's corporate-paid lunch to the IRS but my guess is they wouldn't accept it.

> in most countries you get a wage AND you are free to look for jobs everywhere around you, and to get them

At some point, there will not be enough jobs to keep everyone gainfully employed doing meaningful work (in even the loosest sense of the word). With a basic income, rather than having immense swaths of poverty, each person would have the freedom of any pursuit they desire. For many, this would be some form of productive work.

> Even from a personal standpoint, most people would not really feel good to be paid to do nothing.

This is a thought process very much a product of our current socio-economic environment, where you are told that you are worth the work you put in. But when there is nothing to do, how can you argue with being paid to do nothing?

Furthermore, it is disingenuous to call it being "paid to do nothing". You are being paid a wage directly, unconditionally, but there is nothing forcing you to do nothing. You are free to do anything the law affords.

This is already the status quo. Less people being reliant on charity is a good thing.

I also think the premise that prices would rise and create a GBI death-spiral is far from guaranteed. With a GBI behind them, citizens could potentially be more likely to start their own businesses, increasing competition and productivity and keeping prices well within reasonable range.
