I find that the current state of things is that, indeed, jQuery is often still worth using, but only just, and especially if older browsers have to be supported.

If download size is at all an issue, jQuery is the first thing to go. I have a tiny collection of helper functions that make 'plain js' almost as simple as jQuery in most cases. Almost.

For example, at the very least I'll have a '$' helper function that makes document.querySelector(All) simpler/quicker to use, and I use a helper function for events to make it a bit more like $(<selector>).on().

But considering the fact that I have quite a few projects where the client will upload some huge image for the home slideshow or where there's no time or incentive to do any lazy loading of images, jQuery is often still the pragmatic solution. Especially when other devs need to deal with the project at a later stage.
By facts, I mean what Elon Musk has stated himself.

The interview with Sam Altman in How to build the future is one instance where Elon states this. In the same interview Sam also states that when Elon took him for a tour of SpaceX, Elon talked about the engineering aspects in detail and had a surprisingly good understanding of how the components worked.

Another instance is in the recode interview I think.

And how often do you see Elon going around doing PR stuff? AFAIK not much.
Sitting on your butt shooting test is twice as effective (over 10 weeks) than not shooting test and exercising for 10 weeks:

"Fat-free mass did not change significantly in the group assigned to placebo but no exercise (Table 4 and Figure 1Figure 1Changes from Base Line in Mean (±SE) Fat-free Mass, Triceps and Quadriceps Cross-Sectional Areas, and Muscle Strength in the Bench-Press and Squatting Exercises over the 10 Weeks of Treatment.). The men treated with testosterone but no exercise had an increase of 3.2 kg in fat-free mass, and those in the placebo-plus-exercise group had an increase of 1.9 kg. The increase in the testosterone-plus-exercise group was substantially greater (averaging 6.1 kg). The percentage of body fat did not change significantly in any group (data not shown)."

He's also an extremely weasely manipulator and an egomaniac.

In the documentary "Pumping Iron" he manipulates an entire family, who trusted him as a friend. Oh, and he also boasts about this in front of the camera.

I would consider his autobiography to be a brilliant marketing piece (with the positive and negative connotations of the "marketing" concept), although of course this is personal opinion, and I doubt this will be ever fact-checked to dis/prove it.

Your friend and familiy do not have to understand your motivation. They do not have to understand your decision building a product instead of working for a "prestigious company". They do not have to be your friend.

On the orher hand, you do not have to give a fuck about their opinion. The said truth is that there are 7 billion people on earth and you can not make all of them happy with your way of life. But you can make happy yourself.

I read once an articel where someone was asked "And what do you do when the people say you have crazy ideas?". His answer was "I talk to other people!" Do not worry, there are other people out there who understand you. You only have to find them and listen to them instead of the naysayers.

I've read just yesterday about interrupting others (while looking for missed IRQ's :) and the thing is this: It is expected of politicians and high profile figures to talk over others or they will be percieved weak. Their setup is not on polite debate but on putting up a convincing show.

That's not how I read it. The driver developers are now acting as politicians, trying to merge their own AMD-specific worldview into an open structure and trying to convince the rest of the DRI world that that is a good thing.

DA instead is saying to the developers that they need to play ball and work with the existing Linux DRI world and not silo themselves off.

Note that both the amd and the nvidia kernel modules always have been FOSS because of the GPL license. It's just that nvidia provides it by its own ways, not through the official linux branch, and thus doesn't have to respect linux rules nor to document the driver.

Apparently there is company switching from using Gentoo to NixOS. Gentoo seems a bit of a weird fit for production, unless you can compile packages on another server and deploy them (last time I used it was 10 years ago so I don't know if that's a thing).
Technology improvements are good, but all these sensors in devices scare me, especially in network-connected stuff. Let's say someone exploits and modifies the firmware to trigger on the word "confidential" and then upload the recordings to some server of the attackers choice. Or hides a modified device in someones office/home/etc.

Of course, that's not at all specific to IoT or voice-triggered microphones. Laptops and phones have large batteries and are regularly recharged so they could be exploited as well.
Of course not, the maintainers will accept a well thought out series of patches that each make one small logical change towards the better interface.

And yes - who else is supposed to fix all the regressions caused by changes that AMD wants? Volunteers who would rather work on something else? If you want a change, you get to support the regressions - and if AMD's work gets merged, then anyone ELSE who wants to make a change in that page needs to support AMD's regressions.

Hence wanting to make sure that the changes from AMD are manageable and flexible enough to allow further changes.

Can we please stick to the facts? Where exactly does it promote micro-modules? For example, React was repeatedly criticized for not splitting virtual dom implementation into a separate npm package. That's completely opposite side of the spectrum.

> Here I am thinking that 20k+ files

This are separate files and not necessary as many separate modules. Different things, really. That's ought to be solved with some kind of jar-like packaging format. I'm surprised node.js/npm doesn't have something like that implemented yet.
That's current behavior, but I wouldn't guarantee it will remain that way, an http image compromises the integrity of the site: it could be manipulated to change the meaning. Imagine reading a news site using an unencrypted CDN and whoever runs the WiFi (or the country you're in) is replacing the images with similar yet different ones, giving a different impression that what the creator intended.

You could do this quite subtly as a way to influence people by making certain figures appear more sinister.

The difference between open source and free software is mostly in the political camp the word comes from. Read the OSI definition of open source if you don't believe:

The reasons why "free software" people don't like the word "open source" are indeed political:

So, in an interwiev, Elon talked some engineering aspects to another enterpreneur, Sam, and Sam, who never did any rocketry, concluded that was a surprisingly good understanding of how components worked. How the hell Sam Altman does know anything about rocketry?

That's exactly what I'm talking about. Elon certainly understands some general concepts, maybe even decent amount of engineering (for a businessman). He is obviously an excellent businessman, and, I'd say, even better personal brand promoter. Everything beyond that is just PR that is obviously excellent since intelligent people fall for it.
Gentoo's not such a weird choice if you want to have a lot of control. CoreOS is getting pretty popular these days, and that's gentoo based.
Almost everyone who achieves far beyond the average is "flawed" in some way, or in quite a few ways.

It is a good thing. For the developers of that piece of code (AMD in this case).

However, it is introducing a second API for a very specific subset of hardware into a kernel that is being developed by not just AMD people. Dave Airlie is rightly saying that the second API and hence two different code structures makes the whole DRI infrastructure harder to maintain for everyone else.

And Dave's responsibility is to everyone else, not to AMD.

I have an example to which maybe you or someone else can suggest a better 'vanilla' solution. Would love to hear suggestions.

With jQuery I'd often do

$(<root-element>).on('click', <target element>, callback);

crucially, because events bubble up, even a click on a child element of <target element> will register as a click on the target element.

in plain js it doesn't seem to work that way. I'd do <root-elem>.addEventListener(), but I'd run into the problem that the event.target would point at the exact element that was clicked on instead of the parent element that I wanted to register clicks on.

Given the structure ".item .inner .title", I can't just check if event.target.classList contains 'item', because it might only contain 'title' or 'inner'.

event.path to the rescue! I can simply check if any of the parent nodes do contain the 'item' class. Except event.path doesn't work in safari mobile, so it needs a polyfill. Plus on every event handler I have to go up event.path to check.

Obviously it's not that hard to write a helper function that basically emulates .on(), but I can't help but feel that I'm maybe missing some simpler, plain solution. Any suggestions?

This sort of thing is exactly what some of the software development processes are all about.

When I was in a CMMI training class 10 or more years ago, the instructor we had said basically that much. By instantiating a process, it takes the mental weight of knowing (or checking) if everything is correct.

No one builds cars that way - why should we build anything that way. The processes should catch the inevitable human errors.
Downvoted ofc. To be more elaborate: Node never claimed to do multithreading or being good at parallel processing. The shocking discovery of this article is:

1) The Author knows little about JS.

2) Picking on a scripting language which has 2 weeks + 2 years of development vs a 25 year old monster that is the playground of the brightest minds in CS, is easy.

Unfortunately the article did also not go into details of how the event loop works or shows how you can break out of the single thread with the tools that ARE available to you.
I guess the idea was to write a hype article for Haskell.
Here are some more ideas for the author:

Comparing Haskell and C++ type systems.

Comparing Haskell and Clojure functional purity and lazy evaluation.

Comparing Haskell and Java deterministic parallelism.

I'd say it's normal and healthy. Many industries in the UK, for example, now have what are called CPD obligations. ("Continuing Professional Development"). To stay current you have to earn a particular number of points each year by attending courses or other public events. Even something light like a public lecture might count, for example, for an architect.

> That's not how I read it. The driver developers are now acting as politicians, trying to merge their own AMD-specific worldview into an open structure and trying to convince the rest of the DRI world that that is a good thing.

If AMD decided to simply leave their driver as closed-source blob, they would not have this problem. But all the Linux fanboys that they want AMD to open source their graphics drivers. Just to state one thing clear: AMD already released specifications beforehand such that the kernel developers could have developed an independent graphics driver if they wanted. But it is better to shitstorm companies not to develop a driver than to sully one's hands.

AMD was nice and did its job. But instead of being satisfied with the result they now want AMD to start playing the political game with them (for the protocol: IMHO the correct thing to do would be to bring the driver to the staging area and now it's part of the kernel developers to sully their hands to bring the part up to the standards they want).

NVidia simply refuses to open source their drivers and does not get into this kind of trouble. Lesson learned: Never negotiate with terrorists.
Let's be honest, jQuery was a patch for the IE6 bug.
It's ok to get older in the tech industry as a whole just not in spaces like are Silly Valley and or places that are trying to be such and draw that crowd.

The best place in tech for older is a govt. job where age skewers older and you may even be a minority amongst your fellow laid back/no drama, hard working Indian co-workers. The pay is more then good too!
I only use flexbox in CSS and Svelte for raw JS, less code and speedier workflow. It's more easier when combine Svelte with Redux and transpile with Rollup. With Sever-side Rendering include, this is so much better and doesn't force me to stick to one framework.
Was Your vote counted? (feat. homomorphic encryption) – Numberphile
I always think it's worth pointing out the BS inherent in the "I take steroids but I actually work harder than non-steroid users".

(ps. I hav nothing against steroids/PEDs; I just hate the moral equivocating around them)

Steroids/PEDs in general allow you to get bigger than your genetic/physical limits should allow, in a much shorter period of time, and/or spend more time exercising in a given period than a natty equivalent.

So, if I'm natty, and I do a heavy workout on my arms, I need to wait 2 days or 3 days or whatever until I recover before I can hammer them again. If I'm on the juice, then I wait a day, or less. Plus my recovery will be enhanced, so instead of growing 1-2lbs of total muscle a month, I might grow 5-6lbs.

So, because steroid users can exercise heavily every day, and make outrageous gains that means they're pulling heavy weights pretty quickly, or ridiculous rep counts, they say they're working harder.

I question this - non-steroid users are working just as hard, but their work is spaced out over a longer period, with less visible gains and improvements. At least to me, this isn't "working harder" - it's 100% attributable to the drugs, and not to some other exterior, alternative mental factor or higher degree of commitment from the athlete.

And what about a change to a stable internal kernel API, which the kernel developers refuse?
Sure, it's not ideal... but does it really matter? Just register your domain with this hypothetical service while you're still preparing the content for it, so there's time for the cert to go through before you need it. Or they could let you provide your own cert if you're in that much of a hurry.

We're talking about edge-cases within edge-cases at this point: a service that (1) offers HTTPS subdomains (2) hasn't been able to get a rate-limit increase from Let's Encrypt (3) is unwilling to buy a wildcard cert (4) either is growing by hundreds of subdomains a day, or has a significant amount of clients who can't wait a few hours for a cert but won't buy their own. That's so oddly specific, I'm not surprised people aren't going out of their way to cater to it.

Display core. From a message upthread:

We propose to use the Display Core (DC) driver for display support on AMD's upcoming GPU (referred to by uGPU in the rest of the doc). In order to avoid a flag day the plan is to only support uGPU initially and transition to older ASICs gradually.

The DC component has received extensive testing within AMD for DCE8, 10, and 11 GPUs and is being prepared for uGPU. Support should be better than amdgpu's current display support.
