The UK can’t run out of pounds any more than it can run out of inches or centimetres. In this response to Gary Stevenson, I explain why money is a public good, created by the state, and why it’s wrong to claim the government is broke.

Why the UK can’t go broke – and why Gary Stevenson shouldn't imply it could

Folks talk about poor RN performance on Android. I can sympathize with that but sometimes the poor performance I see in codebases stem from naivety.

What's the best way to debug React Native apps these days?

Legend List 1.0 beta is ready!

It started as a performance experiment, but it ended up solving a lot of the major issues with lists in React Native. 🎉

✨ Better perf than FlashList
✨ maintainContentVisiblePosition
✨ Bidirectional infinite lists
✨ Chat UI without inverting

Blessed is the React native developer that is naive, ships bugs, Sentry makes a fuss about it and developer swoops in like a hero to fix bug they made with much fanfare and confetti. Native dev looks on in bewilderment...that bug should not have existed.

this thing in programming when you’re not sure where to properly fix the problem and then you think about it like, where is the first point that bad data enters the system. what it is the entry point for the confusion. this is where you mend it

Absolutely!!! I would check it out on Android also because RN on Android requires a great deal of effort to get right.
I honestly think @bsky.app finally has everything for me to switch to it. App seems so smooth and fun to use.
All RN devs should actually dogfood Bluesky.

@jayz.us I am going to try out legend state. Really looking forward to a different experience from selector based state management libs. Thanks for showing up at the meetup.

What’s a pragmatic approach to convincing a team of web devs to abandon redux sagas for managing side effects. There’s a 4 year old codebase at stake and a prevailing philosophy of if it ain’t broke don’t fix it.

long shot, but do any React Native experts know if there’s a way to get the green thing (contentContainerStyle) to show up in the middle vertically but WITHOUT extending its height?

Very much enjoying starter packs. Nice work, Team Bluesky.

On business cards. Ha, brilliant! 💳

Also …

Kinda like the awkward LinkedIn app scan thingy yet waaaaay cooooler.

What is often called voter apathy is sometimes voters taking a deliberate step, refusing to engage with a system that holds no honest and human space for them.

I guess myths die hard…because I still see so much myth about RN development on social media networks
