Yes, there are LCS deduplication logic, synchronized DOM update, initializers, reactive updates, storing and mutating states, etc. They're all in there. They're just structured differently because it has a different architecture than existing frameworks.

The whole point of Cell is not trying to match feature by feature of existing frameworks like React/Angular/Ember/etc. And I am aware Cell doesn't look like most existing web app frameworks that follow best practices, because that's the point.

I did my best to explain the rationale behind all the design decisions on the homepage, could you take a look at those and let me know if you have questions? Thank you.
You are, and there are plenty of devices for you. This idea that because one or two device lines (surface, macbook) do something means that it is an assault on you (the collective) is tiresome. The great thing about capitalism is that you vote with every purchase. People want these, those people aren't you (the writer).
> What would motivate someone to intentionally prevent poor people from helping themselves?

Less social security to be paid out.

Once homeless the way back is super hard, and to receive social security you have to have a registered address and to have a registered address you need ID.

So good luck reversing that.

> they are inventions used for a political purpose

I think you are conflating "fiat currencies" with "currencies". US Dollars are a currency. Gold is a "currency". Bitcoin is a currency. Calling card credits are a currency. Cigarettes in prison are a currency. Any store of value is a currency -- whether created / authorized by a state or not.

If anarchists go back to a barter system, there will always be asymmetric transactions that will require some sort of value store (basically an IOU for a transaction that already happened) or cause inefficiencies in the market (the buyer or seller would have to take a hit in order to complete a transaction). Currency always has been to fill this purpose.

> Required millions of dollars to get off the ground

I would argue that if you chose to try and replace the old Gold System with your Widgets System, you would also need lots of resources to convince others to buy into your new currency. It's not about state power as much as other people having faith in your currency keeping value, which is the only purpose of a currency.

Because that's the entire basis of society. Amazon gets the benefits of existing in the US and it must give away some rights. You may want to research Standard Oil.

I don't think Amazon is a monopoly yet, but monopolies are bad for everyone except their shareholders, and Amazon shareholders aren't going to starve either way.

Yes, exactly. If you're creating electronic music then the key aspect is how you modify the sound over time, so a flexible modulation system is crucial.

I get your point, but the fact that one way to improve working conditions is to take matters into your own hands doesn't mean that we should rule out the other course of action: pressuring companies to change.

I remember reading a story about a 19th century company that literally put chains on the doors to prevent workers from leaving the building. When a fire broke out, dozens died. Today we don't allow that type of behavior, and for good reason. The reason that you can move elsewhere to get a better job is because society has worked to ensure the prevalence of said good jobs, and I hope it continues to do so.
In other news today... a lot of middle to upper middle class people who already get 2 or 3 boxes a week from Amazon will start getting 3 or 4 boxes a week instead.

I don't think the widespread resentment of Amazon as a "cold corporate digital version of WalMart" exists outside of your own point of view, and perhaps a few publishers' offices in New York. Amazon is one of those factors in its customers' lives that pretty much always Just Works. Gotta give credit (and cash, and gift cards) where it's due.

Social security cards and birth certificates are not a form of photo ID. Furthermore renewing an ID costs $30 which is a roundabout way of instituting a poll tax.
That's a rather inefficient way to get your account banned. ;)

Jokes aside, I've been consistently impressed with how well manual methods have worked for HN. It was very unexpected that you can simply throw human resources at problems of scale and do so well. There is lots of smart software powering those humans, but the manual approach avoids false positives.

Stripping a hashtag has also caused problems, by the way. I remember one submission in particular where the OP complained that the hashtag linked to a different entry in a blog, which was set up to make that the only way to link to it.
Not planets, asteroids. Will Belters be able to refine and create high tech alloys in zero g? Will they be able to manufacture parts and equipment in zero g, at scale. It may be that all those activities require gravity, or are exceedingly difficult in zero g, we don't know. In the case that those things are hard in zero g, my proposition is that Mars will be desirable place for those activities due to its low gravity and atm making it easy to send back up.

> Having to deal with something like this at the same time as being evicted and losing your mother is very sad, but that's not an excuse.

It's the perfect excuse. Once you have no registered address it is only a matter of time before you gain the accumulated 'benefits' that come with having no status at all. Essentially you become an un-person, and your life is just about forfeit. [1]

I take it that you have not experienced homelessness?

> It's a human interest story.

Yes, indeed. So take an interest in how these situations could be avoided rather than blaming the victims of the system, it should be fairly obvious that she's making a significant effort to regain her status as a documented citizen.

Also note how IDs tend to expire and that if you have no registered address you may not be able to apply for a new ID.

I wrote the comment with the expectation that the reader would have enough musical background to understand it. I can easily picture a rhythm as it would appear in sheet music (well, maybe not easily), because I used to play drums and I had to be able to read music.

Playing drums is probably the ideal background to be able to follow along with what I wrote.

The idea is kind of hard to explain to begin with.
Good analysis. I was disgusted at myself for taking the Parisian celebrity interpretation, then somewhat consoled but at the same time disturbed that on Hacker News of all places so many people did the very same. But I think you've hit the nail on the head with the title-case Pairs factor. The All Stars expression probably introduced some anchoring too.

Might just be the single most useful and usable 'framework' ive seen all year. This is awesome. So many possibilities to construct DOM on the fly from programs for a web UI. And the liberation from dependency hell of npm is so refreshing.
Thank you - this lies in the realm of proper 'Contribution' rather than the usual 'regurgitation' one gets form vast bulk of other coding tools. You have rethought the fundamental approach of how and why one wants to use HTML together with apps.
If you've been fingerprinted and identified, ever, you should be able to get copies of all necessary IDs from that alone.
There are many ways, for instance in some countries several citizens themselves in the possession of valid identification go together with you before a judge and swear on the penalty of perjury that you are who you say you are.

I like that approach. I wonder if there's some way to campaign for it here in the US.

It seems more likely that the lack of this system is just what you get with lowest-common-denominator governance, so there are probably ways to change it for the better. If we could think of a way to add economic incentives to implement it, then it might have a chance.
> Is there a way to offer that kind of system while avoiding the concerns about identity theft?

I know there are other cases where you must prove your identity, but in the case of voter impersonation fraud, to pull that off at a scale large enough to affect a major election requires a massive logistical effort. You must:

* Obtain the registered voter rolls for every polling place. This is the easy part.

* Know a priori which registered voters will and won't vote on election day. Why? Because if you show up and say you're John Doe, and the polling place has marked that John Doe has already voted, you won't get to vote. If that happens enough times—especially if it happens to the real John Doe, after a fake John Doe voted on his behalf—alarm bells are raised.

* Shuttle your team of voter impersonators across the city or county or whatever N times so that they can each fraudulently vote enough to tip the election in your favor.

This enormous scope is why almost all known cases of voter impersonation fraud are in elections for offices like "dog catcher" in a rural town: the scale is small enough that you can tip an election with a handful of your closest friends, and you might also know a corresponding handful of registered voters around town who have said they're not planning to vote. Laws that require a photo ID to vote are malicious at worst, and wrongheaded and pointless at best.
Yes there is. One is by force of law, the other is simply a reverse engineering problem. If you can put it together, you can take it apart, it doesn't mean it will be easy though.

> If the government ID infrastructure ran as well as Facebook's ad targeting department, we would have no problems of this kind whatsoever.

You might want to rethink that statement. I suspect that the government ID infrastructure works flawlessly for about 99.9% of users. The FB ad infrastructure does not work that well.
By "music theory books", I believe the author means "Literature which attempts to explain biologically why harmonies sound pleasant". My experience with this is that

1) Much of this literature is indeed in inside books which also discuss the "cookbook" parts of music theory, and

2) It's shocking how much incorrect, unscientific nonsense there is in these texts, and

3) There's nothing close to a scientific consensus about why humans and animals nearly universally feel good when hearing harmonious sounds.

The author is attempting to answer that question, and I think his initial complaints are perfectly valid.
I always wondered how people get IDs if: 1) they never got one while under an age when someone else could vouch for them, and 2) they didn't have any of the documents needed to an ID because to get those documents, you need an ID.
> Any store of value is a currency

No, any medium of exchange is a currency. (That and the unit of account function of money are deeply tied; while store of value is often cited as a function of money, it's not deeply tied to the other two, and lots of things that aren't money/currency fill it; the essential feature of currency is being a medium of exchange.)
If you're having to manually update transactions, that might be worth mentioning on your site.

5. Simplicity - you only have to know JSON and HTML.

In my view, this isn't entirely accurate. On some occasions, musicians have invented theories for prescriptive use, for instance to overcome a creative roadblock. I think that modal jazz and 12-tone systems are examples.

Noting a neighboring comment, theory may not be necessary for composition, but some specific forms of composition may be prohibitively difficult without theory. I have musical colleague who composes multi part jazz harmonies for small to large ensembles. They are steeped in theory.

On the other hand, my spouse attended a seminar given by a fairly well known film composer. She asked him if he followed any particular school of theory, and he said no.
> the situation described in the article which seems to be engineered to simply keep people in the hole once they through misfortune or carelessness slip up. It's sad too that it should come to volunteers to correct such situations, you'd think that the government would really like its citizens to be able to take part in society rather than to be pushed even further into the fringes.

You'll find that Americans really believe in personal responsibility to an absurd extent. And if you're irresponsible enough to lose all your ID (forget why, who cares?) then you clearly deserve to die in a ditch somewhere. It's a brutal philosophy that permeates everything about the country.
Yes, this is exactly the effect I am talking about.
You go into the store, and effectively, using the cell network for data goes to zero, but the cell voice service still works.

Could it be something that makes the cell network jittery or adds latency that interferes with cellular data but not voice service?

In the U.S. at least, Department of Justice antitrust litigation has prevented law schools from artificially limiting the supply of lawyers. There are about twice as many law graduates each year as job openings. If you just need someone with a law license, you can hire them for $20/hour on craigslist.
Even if the government issues me a free ID I don't have to carry it and I can tell anyone who asks that I am my brother
I think it goes both ways. Historically, most music theory has arisen after the fact to explain why music written a hundred years before sounds good. However, it is possible to discover some particular mathematical structure in music and then generalize to create new previously-unknown forms of music. There's a certain degree of artistry to this, so it's hard to say where the science ends and the art begins. To an outside observer it may look like someone just randomly made noise until something "worked".

Personally, I think western music is stuck in a 12-tone-equal-temperament rut. It's not as if we've discovered all possible 12-TET music, but it's getting harder to find anything truly novel harmonically or melodically. (Timbre and rhythm are still good ways to innovate within 12-TET.)

When you look at the design of the hardware, the various busses and registers are of a fixed maximum size. For example, small micro-controllers might have 8 bit registers and data busses and 16 bit address busses. This in turn means that the arithmetic unit processes information at that chunk size. There have been attempts at variable word size architectures (especially in the early days) but the amount of circuitry required to marshall variable sized information in and out of fixed sized hardware resources became excessive. Similar concerns apply to arbitrary-precision FPUs. These architectural concerns then propagate to the cache designs, memory and and I/O channels.

Of course, these concerns only apply at the hardware level. There are virtual machines, e.g. Lisp systems, that implement variable sized operations.
Even still, you're trying to create data out of "thin air" -- too much information is lost in the "conversion process" to drawing, and trying to recover it is futile.

I've been using this approach and it works amazingly well (for text-based formats like .tex and .md). I switched from mercurial to git because rebasing feels much more natural. I'm currently actively maintaining five different versions of a book in parallel as separate branches. The `master` branch sees the most fixes then I rebase the five branches.

Anyway, it's great to see books stored in git. Mark my words, this will be a big thing for education!

Good to know this. I don't think it's outright cell jamming but something where voice service is still passable but data service basically cannot function due to packet loss, etc.

Would be interesting to try to detect if such interference is present on the right frequencies, or if it is just a natural effect and truly not intentional.

Well, it's more like with each president over the past two decades, everyone became more aware that the US is not the benevolent/welcoming/whatever democracy it said it was.
