The Subway employee served up the knowledge free of charge. Love to picture the look of grim acceptance on the vegan's face when they learned that mayo was in fact not vegan. The fact they went through with the original sandwich order anyways is pretty great. 

If you're like anyone else, it's hard to escape garbage moments made possible by shortsighted people who aren't thinking with everyone's best interest in mind. There are crook landlords, people stealing crap, and some massive disrespect just floating around the world. This trashiness belongs on Garbage Island.

As long as the choosing beggars continue to present themselves, it's up to the rest of the world to serve them up reality checks, free of charge. This particular impatient choosing beggar experienced a nice wakeup moment, after pestering an artist to rush a free drawing, after they already received one free drawing. The artist absolutely delivered.

Tell me if this strategy sounds familiar. Pick a target, any target, as long as the Trumpkins hate ’em. Pay a non-credible source to make up an unlikely story of sexual malfeasance.

California Governor Gavin Newsom announced Friday that he had signed an executive order to mail ballots to the state’s 20.6 million registered voters, citing potential health risks due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.“There’s a lot of excitement around this November’s election in terms of making sure that you can conduct yourself in a safe way, and make sure your health is protected,” Newsom said Friday. In March, the state allowed ballots to be mailed in for its primary, which saw a record-high of 72 percent of all ballots that were cast by mail.California Secretary of State Alex Padilla, who heads the state’s elections, commended the move “It’s great for public health, it’s great for voting rights, it’s going to be great for participation,” he said. California already allows for generous absentee voting, passing a 2002 decision which gives voters the option to request permanent voting by mail, regardless of the reason.While Newsom’s decision applies only to the November election, it could set a precedent for other Democratic states, with voting by mail quickly becoming a partisan issue. It comes after the state’s lawmakers and local officials requested the measure, saying coronavirus will severely hamper voting efforts, a complaint echoed by prominent Democrats.“Why should we be saying to people, ‘Stand in line for hours,’ when we don’t even want you leaving the house?” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in April. But President Trump has repeatedly slammed calls for mail-in voting, saying last month that it lets “people cheat” and involves “a lot of dishonesty.”Newsom said that his order would still allow an “appropriate number” of in-person voting sites, saying that some voters, including those that are disabled, require technological help to cast a ballot.

Meghan McCain, The View’s resident conservative host, tore into Kayleigh McEnany for “spinning propaganda” on Thursday morning after the new White House press secretary dismissed the need for increased coronavirus testing as the economy reopens.During her press briefing on Wednesday, McEnany said it was “nonsensical” to think that every American should be able to get tested for coronavirus, even though President Donald Trump said two months earlier that “anybody that wants a test can get a test.” The hosts of The View took the press secretary to task over those remarks.Co-host Sunny Hostin said she found it “shocking” that the White House spokesperson would say that considering recent news that one of the president’s personal valets just tested positive for the virus.“So it’s obviously important enough for everyone in the White House and surrounding the president to be tested for the coronavirus, but it’s not important to the press secretary and to the administration for Americans to be tested for the coronavirus,” she declared. “And so that tells me that she is just spinning lies to the American people rather than being honest with the American people.”After first saying there has been “mixed messaging” coming not just from the White House but from medical experts since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, McCain went on to blast McEnany as a propagandist.“I think in regards to Kayleigh McEnany, she was hired for this job because she’s good at spinning propaganda, and she was good spinning propaganda before she got hired,” she exclaimed. “And you can make the argument that’s the role of any press secretaries but it’s probably a little more egregious with this particular president.”The conservative co-host then worried aloud that we were reaching a tipping point on saving the economy, criticizing the Trump administration for not taking the necessary steps to safely reopen the country.“If we don’t start getting a plan to get testing, to somehow pull ourselves out of this and get America back to work,” she proclaimed. “This is going to be far more egregious than any crisis any of us have seen in all of our lifetimes.” “If the tests aren’t important, why is the White House, and everybody else getting tested before they go before the president?” McCain concluded. “I would like to go back to work. I know you would, and I would be comfortable doing that if we all had the capacity to get tested.”Read more at The Daily Beast.Got a tip?

The routing ecosystem around React and React Native is quite different. One is characterized by a strong incumbent, and the other is plagued by rapid change.

React JS

No question about it, React Router (ReactTraining/react-router) is king here. They have the benefit of several years of active development, along with an active community submitting PR’s, fixes, etc. Supplement that with myriad tutorials and how-to’s and you end up with a well-supported, stable product. To be fair, React Router has suffered some major API upsets, and is nearly the poster-child for javascript fatigue but the maintainers have declared their lasting support for a few specific versions, which means you can plop down with V3 and be good to go for the next 12 to 24 months.

React Native

Ok, this is where things start to get really, really crazy. The most important thing to keep in mind is that the React Native team has produced three navigation helpers: NavigatorIOS, Navigator, and NavigatorExperimental.

• NavigatorIOS was quickly deprecated, as it was supported only by (you guessed it) IOS.
• Navigator is the currently endorsed solution for navigation, at least if you are following the official docs. However, its about to be upset by-
• NavigationExperimental. This is an updated navigator that has learned some lessons from Navigator, and has some solid integration with Redux. ‘Navigator’ is (or was!) sleighted to be deprecated in favor of NavigationExperimental at some point.

Already you have three ‘official’ navigators supported by the React Native team. The big issue with all three of these is that they are somewhat lightweight and don’t include a lot of common navigation situations out of the box, like sidebars, tab bars, headers, etc. To solve that, the community has introduced…

• React Native Router Flux (aksonov/react-native-router-flux). My personal favorite, this is router is based upon NavigationExperimental. You can imagine that the authors looked at NavigationExperimental, realized that everyone would be writing the same wrapper code around it, and so created this project.
• React Native Router (t4t5/react-native-router). Haven’t used it, but it is colossally popular.
• React Router Native (jmurzy/react-router-native). Strives for API conformity with React Router (the above mentioned one). The great approach here is that they bring in the concept of a URL in native apps, where one doesn’t otherwise exist. This is a great approach that simplifies a lot of common routing situations. Of course, there’s one more big solution that is supposedly going to become the standard:
• React Navigation (react-community/react-navigation). Seen as a solution that will soon be ‘official’ in the community, it is intended to replaced NavigationExperimental. This package is still in active development, so I expect at least a bit of API upset over the coming months. If you want to use official solutions, go with this, if you want a tried and true solution, go with React Native Router Flux.
