I'm curious why you use `.js` files instead of `.jsx`? In my experience, using `jsx` files makes everything work better

Legal address doesn't matter for mail, and all of this stuff is about mail/shipping. This includes billing addresses.

I would have assumed that you knew that. I know people whose ZIP code belongs to a neighboring town (because mail works that way) and it basically becomes their de-facto address.


Probably not safe to assume my level of knowledge about any subject matter

If that's a self-own then fair enough.

But if you get mail to an address with a ZIP code listed to another city then surely you're aware of this as it comes up constantly for anyone who ever receives mail or packages.


Some areas have duplicate, or very similar street names (ie, 'ave' vs. 'street') I don't think its that much of an ask that a website lets you enter your address correctly

Yeah it should auto fill but not stop you from changing it, best experience 98% of the time.

I just looked it up and apparently there's some cases of zip codes that do go across state lines too, but it's rare.


There is a canonical full address for every mailbox in the US. Would be curious to see what these houses show.

My experience living in towns that received mail from other towns is your canonical address IS the other town.


FWIW I have received mail from the USPS in places that had no canonical full address as well. It's not the case in reality that the USPS only delivers mail to mailboxes that have an associated entry in their canonical database here in "messy" reality.

Street name isn’t auto completed here…

The legal address can absolutely matter for shipping when there are legal requirements in regards to the thing you’re shipping.

cache uses whatever you have

im sure that gmail tab is just casually caching gigabytes of email, just in case the user opens it.

Many people WERE in those markets, but this is a better fit because it is a modern chip. It's hard to recommend a 6 year old computer because the concern about support length is higher.

My school, my college, and my current enterprise (Fortune 500, etc.) environment all manage it just fine.

In the United States (population of 340 million):

* 86 million (27%) are under 21 and most of those are students. * Those people have parents, assume 2 parents per 2 children = 86 million parents (27%)

That means 55% of the US population is eligible for the cheaper rate before you even account for people getting secondary degrees, educators, and yes - the schools themselves.


Yeah it sounds like you’re the target audience for 16GB of RAM.

If you even know what XCode is you're not the target audience for 8GB

And who exactly is the target audience for a regression?

Bruh if 32GB of RAM feels insufficient your computer is broken.

That's crazy, must be a specific field? The overwhelming majority of college degrees don't require Windows.

You can nowadays do fine with macOS or Linux in most college degrees I've seen, since nowadays there are decent open source alternatives for the most prolific software that's on the level of popularity that it will be used in teaching.

However by default almost every college curriculum I've seen (unless it's in CS or IT combined field like bioinformatics) is still taught Windows-first, be it sociology, biochemistry or economics. In many you also have strong presence of MS Office suite, which is probably the first software that any university will buy license packs for for their students.


They're giving an example of a very heavy workload on 16GB. It stands to easy reasoning that a casual consumer could be fine on 8GB.
