Seeing how closely TopShell resembles Haskell I am curious why you chose to implement it in Scala rather than Haskell or Purescript.

It doesn't have a notch. This makes it better than the real iPhone. Too bad they added a software one.

What is the best location to watch the launch from?
The only thing I like about it is the fact that it removes the need for the `fun` keyword. Otherwise it just adds noise in my opinion.

I love how VS Code has no problem working with large and even minified files (unlike some other “modern” editors). Every update is just icing on the cake.
Keep up the good work!

VS Code has much better git integration than Atom will ever have out of the box because Atom does not want to compete with GitHub for Desktop.

In my country (Romania) HIV was actually spread through vaccinations. Indeed that is how I got infected as an infant. The problem was supposedly not with the vaccines themselves though but with the fact that they were reusing needles.

Actually there is a positive 0 and a negative 0 in JavaScript. Try 1/+0 and 1/-0 in your browser console and notice how the result is different for each (+Infinity and -Infinity respectively).

Re:“Implement text editor DOM updates manually instead of via React”

I think this is a very good question, and the short answer in my opinion is yes, canvas rendering would make it much faster (as the guys at Flipboard have shown [1]). The downside is you would have to implement your own rendering engine from scratch which is quite challenging.
