What is your analogue to bitcoin from a decade ago ? Merkel trees are old (1979), Hashcash goes back to 1997 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hashcash
But bitcoin is not just a rebranding of a combination of hashcash, merk trees, forth, pgp, BitTorrent.

Also what is the analogue to reactive in the past ? The main reason for reactive is different screen sizes and orientation of handheld devices. What similar problem would reactive have solved 2 decades ago ? There are a couple of references from 2001 and 2004 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Responsive_web_design , but really there wasn't a practical common use case before the iPhone in 2007 and ipad in 2010.

I can't believe an LED that adapts the colour temperature to the time of the day like F.lux does isn't a standard yet.

should there be a need for the ToString?
I was thinking primarily about appliances - lightbulbs (dumb or smart), washing machines, cars, cellphones / smartphones, etc. Those two points you added don't apply to most of them.

That said, I'm not sure if I agree with the first one. At least not completely. I'd like to have some ability to recover old/special features but I wouldn't mind if it required some extra work (like tracking down that motherboard model that still has parallel port on it). In the reality where all technology is being obsoleted fast and my two points hold, whatever you want to program over parallel has probably broke down already anyway.

As for the second one - we don't have anything like that even today in wide use, and we cope :). On Unix you end up moving your dotfiles; on Windows I used to spend an hour or three for setting things up "my way". Personally I don't expect a new machine to immediately feel like the old one - but I do expect to be able to make it so.
Modern heat pumps are three to four times more efficient in their use of electric power than simple electrical resistance heaters.[1]

I have a 7.1kW heat pump, it uses a little over 1.79kW of power generate that heat, so a thermal efficiency of 3.96:1. Any light bulb, whether it's incandescent or CFL or LED produces heat a 1:1 thermal efficiency.

Swift is not unique in using constraint solving to provide bidirectional type inference. Scala and Haskell provide the same level of flexibility; although not with the same compile-time problems. In the case of Haskell, this is ultimately because the language is intentionally simpler in some ways.

Swift brings together three features that can be hard on type inference:

* Overloaded literals. When overloaded literals like maps can themselves contain literals, there are actually quite a few possible overloadings to choose from.

* Subtyping. We infer not types but type bounds (ranges).

* Overloading.

Haskell has notably no overloading at all and no subtyping. Somehow Scala manages to combine all these things and a quite astonishing conversions system, too.

Meta: Stop changing post titles
Today I spent a long time looking for a post from three days ago only to find out its title had been completely changed from the original (I assume by a mod). This is unnecessary and creates confusion. I would suggest adding an additional optional "alternate title" for this purpose (reddit has this) or just let the community vote decide if a post title is good enough.
tl;dr: "hack.css is a superset of markdown.css with more common UI utilities plugged in."

Well... move along please, nothing to see here.
Your suggestion does not appear to be valid for the UK.

"Data on overweight and obesity among adults are mainly from the Health Survey for England (HSE). Results for 2014 showed that 61.7% of adults were overweight or obese (65.3% of men and 58.1% of women). The prevalence of obesity is similar among men and women, but men are more likely to be overweight."

Projection from WHO:

"74% of men and 64% of women in UK to be overweight by 2030"

I have no trouble getting hold of 2700K LED bulbs here in Australia.

I agree though, the cold white 4500K or higher bulbs are really only suitable during the day. Every bulb in my house, CFL or LED, is 2700K.
The Netherlands has this as well since this year. Putting a price on plastic bags actually seems to change people's behaviour — for the good. The law doesn't even stipulate a minimum price; as long as plastic bags aren't free, people will bother to bring their own.
It's an interesting language no doubt. There are a lot of different implementations though. I generally prefer free implementations and would recommend SWI-Prolog as it's reasonably fast and has the most documentation.

Of the proprietary Prologs I've mostly worked with Sicstus which was the fastest one I've used and had pretty good constraint libraries. It also has a lot of extra features (logical loops etc.) but I mostly used it for legacy reasons and generally prefer a free implementation (for any programming language).

I've heard good things about Eclipse (unfortunate naming, hard to search for) when it comes to constraint programming.

Some random observations: It usually takes my brain a bit to switch to "Prolog mode". You can build some fairly elegant things (constraint based poker hand rankings was the last thing I built) but it's usually not very fast. However I'm not a very proficient Prolog programmer so it could very well be on me for not optimizing enough. If you want some book recommendations I think the best first book is "Prolog Programming for Artificial Intelligence" (best intro section which is the first half of the book so highly recommended even if you don't care about AI at all). The classics are great followups to that (Art of Prolog first, Craft of Prolog second).

I like it, because you get somehow the best of both worlds,
on one side you're getting explicit error handling and on the other the convenience of exceptions, that you can just "raise" them and they propagate upwards in the calling stack.
> ... and there is no possibility of ever having proper TLS, with or without CloudFlare. That alone disqualifies it as "best". It simply doesn't meet minimum requirements.

I'd argue that using CloudFront for SSL termination would be slightly better, but ultimately even just running an EC2 instance implies trusting Amazon and giving them power to intercept and mess with your traffic. So I guess with CloudFlare the only difference is you are trusting one more entity that could screw you over. So you end up trusting both Amazon and CloudFlare.

> What are you paying for S3, currently?

I pay roughly $0.03/month so switching to something like a DO droplet($5/month) would increase cost by 16566%, increase labour required and make the site less stable and more vulnerable to hug of death scenarios.
True, a silent dictatorship and freedom of speech is not allowed
See above about cost and labour required. If you stick with the github.io domain you still have free SSL termination.
Interesting, I guess the computations are expensive enough that the extra food required isn't worth the survival advantage.

I completely agree. I understand the sentiments of those who oppose new construction because hey, SF is an awesome place and whenever you change something you run the risk of destroying that character, but the reality is that change is coming one way or another and it needs to be addressed.

I actually lay more blame on the cities surrounding SF and down the peninsula though. How Mountain View can oppose new apartments with a straight face is beyond me.

Housing policy in the US seems to be designed for a period of 0 population growth and people who want to exclusively live in the suburbs. Additionally, nobody seems willing to point out the blindingly obvious contradiction in saying "high house prices are good" and "we need to address the problem of housing shortages".

Perhaps most galling is that people care more about having places for cars to sleep than for people. New buildings (more in Santa Monica than SF) are required to have obscene amounts of parking - room that could go towards housing humans, and not cars. After living in Santa Monica, I lived in a wonderful apartment in a delightful neighborhood for a year in San Diego, but it was expensive (by SD standards). Why? Because it's de facto illegal to build nice neighborhoods any more with cottage-style homes or apartments above shops nestled close to one another, because now you'd have to use as much space on parking as on housing. And yet, it seems people like these places, as evidenced by the high rents they command.

For what it's worth, while living there my wife and I were car-free for the first three months, relying on a 170cc scooter, car2go, and bicycles. After she got hit by a car commuting to her job which was in the middle of nowhere and poorly served by transit (but, I will say, surrounded by massive amounts of parking and on cheap land), we got one car, which we shared. SD law says our apartment would have needed two parking spaces if built now, which is comical.

In Ireland we have a levy (I.e. addiontal tax) on plastic bags. It's been in place since 2002: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recycling_in_the_Republic_of_I...

From link:
One noticeable success in Ireland's environmental track record was the introduction of a plastic bag levy in 2002, the first country in the world to do so. All consumers were required to pay 15c for a plastic bag; this led to an immediate decrease of over 90% in the amount of plastic bags in circulation. From 328 bags per inhabitant per year when the levy was introduced, usage fell to 21 bags per capita.
Did brief search about said referendum. Saw that 98% of voters approve it.

Sounds like ballot stuffing.
For the right level of "sponsorship" I am sure they will be willing to do a follow up article.

Maybe, and I appreciate the argument 'fapjacks brought forward downthread, but then again - psychopaths exist too and if one's to believe recent reports, the US military kind doesn't pay as much attention as it should anymore to vetting and training people who are working with nuclear weapons. By extension, I doubt situation in Russia or other nuclear powers is any better.

Even ignoring psychopaths, I have my pet theory too. It goes like this: "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to be separated from it by enough layers of abstraction". So for instance, the moment some military decides to automate away people in the silos I'll start being very scared.
I wonder if a service that has to be paid with cash or wire transfer would work.
This. It would be really great to have a language like PowerShell on Linux. Being able to pass file names reliably[0] without disgusting hacks would be great, for a starter. And, unlike in current nix shells, a new shell should separate responsibilities cleanly between tools (`find` has both `-exec` and `-delete` unlike most commands; `grep` has `-c`), return reusable results (damn you `ls`!), have sensible scoping rules, stop on the first error (like `errexit`, `nounset` and `pipefail` implemented sanely), and just generally be more like a real language.

I just ordered a some from Osram Lightify that you can control the colour temperature and brightness. I'm going to set them up with Home Assistant to do exactly this, and at €20/bulb (for GU10) they aren't too bad (compared to the coloured Philips Hue which are €60/bulb). However as you say, it would be great if the bulbs would just do this themselves.
100% is a bit of a deceptive claim, since
1) we can exceed 100% with heat pumps, and
2) pretty much _every_ electrical appliance in an enclosed space is 100% efficient at converting energy to heat.
3) For the most part, the electricity being used to power those incandescents is produced with 25-50% efficiency. Burning gas to make heat to run a turbine to produce electricity to transmit it to your home to heat a coil to make light is not very efficient. Ideally it's combined-cycle (waste heat boils water to spin another turbine) but it's still not as good as just burning that gas in your furnace.

My apartment, lovely as it is, has vile, ancient, horrible resistive electric storage heaters. I live in a somewhat cold climate. I suck it up and pay for renewably-sourced electricity to assuage the guilt because there's no way I'm going to win in a fight to install heat pumps or gas-fired heating with my landlord.

In this limited scenario, incandescents make sense. If I owned this place those hunk-of-crap heaters would be in the skip tomorrow and all the incandescent bulbs with them.

No FUD, just physics. The parent comment mentioned electromigration[1].

From the Wikipedia article:

Electromigration is the transport of material caused by the gradual movement of the ions in a conductor due to the momentum transfer between conducting electrons and diffusing metal atoms. The effect is important in applications where high direct current densities are used, such as in microelectronics and related structures. As the structure size in electronics such as integrated circuits (ICs) decreases, the practical significance of this effect increases.

It remains to be seen how long modern CPUs (ICs in general) last. My i5 laptop is still running at 3 years, so there's that.

> And Asian build LED are of a often of a higher quality and last longer.

I'd like to believe that. I got burned by so many cheap Chinese LEDs (quite literally, too - some common failure modes of LED bulbs have them getting almost as hot as incandescent ones) that now I'm willing to pay premium to be sure the bulb won't turn into disco stroboscope after two days of usage.

On one of my sites, I'm using websockets to do uploads. This is because it gives me better control over congestion issues (I can for instance do bandwidth shaping for each of my virtual connections).

However, sadly, I've discovered that in Chrome when a tab does not have focus, upload speeds dramatically go down, probably because of some scheduling policy in the browser.

If you want to programmatically address uploads (i.e., not with a simple PUT request), you have to somehow face this issue. I'm not sure if Uppy has this same problem or not (or if it even allows bandwidth shaping).
Theophrastus is not talking about your experiment, but suggesting another.
Haskell does have overloaded literals: integer literals have type `Num a => a`, and floating-point literals have type `Fractional a => a`. And GHC has an extension OverloadedStrings to make string literals have type `IsString a => a` (which makes it easier to work with ByteString and other different string-like types).
I hosted a family of giant fat people yesterday. The teenagers were all girls and grossly obese. The mother was the same. The father was the same. They were loud, crass and annoying. The most thin child (still fat) was the easiest to get along with.

As an on-and-off fat person myself, fattiness is most associated with a state of mind and not gender. But if you combine this data with the so-called "happiness gender gap" (http://greatergood.berkeley.edu/article/item/is_there_a_happ...), you see that this outcome is inevitable.

I changed my apartment recently and replaced all bulbs with Hue. Thanks for another idea to my list of hacks I'm trying to implement on them.

I promise you that bulbs on dimmer switches do burn out. I just bought a house and the kitchen light on a dimmer switch burned out within a week of my moving in. No idea about the age of the bulb, so it's not very good data, but... Sadly, it's apparently still a crapshoot whether any given LED bulb works without flicker on any given dimmer of unknown design; I have only found those with flicker so far.
