I agree. It was pretty annoying. So are the new top/bottom footers on Medium. I sometimes open up the inspector and delete those two divs just to read the page, but most of the time I don't bother, give up on the article, and just close the tab.

Content should just be content. You shouldn't need Javascript to simply view a page. Even if this was all just CSS tricks, it's still pretty annoying. I mean it's a neat idea. Scrolling animation can be kinda neat if done right, but this totally wasn't. It takes away from the content, which is pretty interesting.
@sleepydog, that was an example. Even in one planet, RTT in internet can be quite severe for realtime applications.
I definitely don't disagree with your statements, but I think OP meant more akin to "the web is not for running other peoples code". Ie, the web is for content, not applications.

This may not be what OP meant.. but it's something I can agree with to a degree. I love web apps, don't get me wrong, but I wish we had meaningful fallbacks for those who want content without features.
Searched a bit on Project Panama, found an example:

@Header(path="unistd.h")

While indeed very easy to use, that API is extremely hard to implement in the runtime to make it work not just for toy examples. Authors of real world libraries do all kinds of weird stuff in their C headers: they abuse C preprocessor, implement compiler-specific hacks, and even include pieces generated by external tools.
WASM requires a much simpler VM than JS. It doesn't take most of a JS VM.
I would guess that roofing services have inelastic demand, meaning that a change in price doesn't affect demand much. A home owner often doesn't have much choice about whether or not to repair their roof, if it needs to be done then it needs to be done.

WebOOB [0] is a good Python framework for scraping websites. It's mostly used to aggregate data from multiple websites by organizing each site backend implement an abstract interface (for example the CapBank abstract interface for parsing banking sites) but it can be used without that part.

On the pure scraping side, it has a "declarative parsing" to avoid painful plain-old procedural code [1]. You can parse pages by simply specifying a bunch of XPaths and indicating a few filters from the library to apply on those XPath elements, for example CleanText to remove whitespace nonsense, Lower (to lower-case), Regexp, CleanDecimal (to parse as number) and a lot more. URL patterns can be associated to a Page class of such declarative parsing. If declarative becomes too verbose, it can always be replaced locally by writing a plain-old Python method.

A set of applications are provided to visualize extracted data, and other niceties are provided for debug easing.
Simply put: « Wonderful, Efficient, Beautiful, Outshining, Omnipotent, Brilliant: meet WebOOB ».

> It's not about the number of "features", but whether it's a productive, convenient item to have in your life. A 1-day battery life on a watch is a serious flaw.

And the Apple watch is a productive and convenient item to have in many people's lives. I have a series 2 and easily get 2 days of battery life. Apparently the series 3s can get 3 days.

For me at least, 1 week battery life is in some ways worse. It means that I will not charge it regularly, and it will likely die when I want to use it. Right now I never think about the battery on my Apple Watch, and just charge it when taking a shower in the morning.

It's crazy how often I need to do this as well. I remember back in the old days hitting esc would stop all the animations on a page, now you need to inspect + delete those elements.

There needs to be some crowd sourced way of doing this, so if you delete an element and I visit the site, the element is gone.

To have this many accounts, they might have a series of scripts and potentially farm out captcha. I find it interesting the article mentions one of them messing up and switching to a fake account in a post. That would suggest some of this is done manually, which would be bizarre.

HTML, CSS, SVG and other things your browser will interpret might be more complex than JavaScript and surely their implementation contains bugs and exploits. Hell, I recently learned about CSV injection (comma separated values). You can't realistically discard JavaScript and think that you're safe. The world is full of complex data formats ready to be exploited. Proper solution is to embrace sandboxes and put many walls around it, so inevitable bugs won't be exploited.

Motion is great for one or two cameras, but changes take a while and viewing the output is hard. However I really like motioneye:

https://github.com/ccrisan/motioneye/wiki

it works well on a pi and is basically a nice gui for motion (with the ability to paint motion masks in the browser, which is a very nice touch)

the only down side is that video viewing isn't supported directly in the browser, but that might change if someone is willing to help out.
VPN can be a problem, especially on these older devices as those services themselves are vulnerable due to underlying OS issues. In terms of WiFi, keep in mind LTE is effectively broken because of the emergency tower redirection implementation. It's possible for attackers to direct devices to their own OpenLTE tower.

Imagine something like the Java VM, available without the need of 3rd party installations, that interfaces actual HTML (instead of being locked down into a frame), and has no limitation on language support.

This is how adblockers work (sort of).

We could probably leverage the same tech used for adblockers to make UI blockers, which maintain lists of "bad" UI and remove their tags and scripts.

Of course, I find it easier to just not use those websites.

>If you took the finances first approach, you would have missed Google.

Google Inc is a very interesting situation. I wasn't there as a fly on the wall during the first investment rounds but based on reading multiple sources of Google's history, it seems like there's been a little bit of mythology built up around Google's ascent -- some of which is perpetuated by very persuasive personalities like Ron Conway.

For example in the interview[1], Paul Graham asks Ron Conway if Google knew how they would make money and Ron says "no". So just based on that, it seems like investors such as VC firms Sequoia and KPCB made a blind leap of faith based on the sheer force of Larry and Sergei's brilliance.

However, other sources say there's actually more to that story. You have to split apart the "monetization" into 2 different strategies: (1) licensing the search engine to others like Yahoo and (2) AdWords.

When people say "Google didn't know how it was going to make money", they're likely talking about AdWords. However, Larry did have the idea of "licensing income" from the very beginning. The potential to sell a search engine license to Yahoo was why he was enlisting Ron Conway's help to connect him to the VC firms in the first place. With benefit of hindsight, we now know that Google pivoted from licenses to AdWords and it became the massive cash cow nobody predicted when the company was initially founded.

So VCs like Sequoia and KPCB did have "finances first" because they invested with the idea that licenses was a realistic revenue model. Contradicting Ron Conway, the VCs didn't necessarily need a 10th slide that showed the business model -- because they already bought into the licensing idea. Because of the strange way that mythology works backwards from the present, if you ask Sequoia today if they invested in Google without a business model, they will emphatically answer "yes" which reinforces the idealization that they "believe in their founders". It's an interesting feedback loop.

If there were Google investors that prioritized the idea over finances, it might have been the very first angel investors such as David Cheriton and Andy Bechtolsheim. Possibly Jeff Bezos as well.

If anyone close to the early Google days can correct the story, that would be helpful.

User builds on some Chinese phones are pretty sloppy. I needed to access an old Oppo phone the other day, where I couldn't remember the PIN. Luckily ADB was enabled, which suggests that their production software might have been a userdebug build. I couldn't enable root via ADB, since it was at least a production/user build, but the su binary was already on the phone, so I just su'ed and got a root prompt. From there I could pull the sqlite settings database, reset the PIN and push it again. After a reboot, the phone booted without PIN.

Unfortunately there was an Oppo homebrewn secondary PIN on some of their built in apps, which hadn't been reset, but it turned out I could enter the PIN as many times as I wanted, so I made a small script to brute force it via ADB (input text). Took half an hour to disable the secondary PIN with my script.

That whole phenomenon strikes me as a fundamental dimension of reality and perception (sorry for the bombast).

We basically see the world as a texture of possibilities, and there are different poles in the way that works.

Some people are rigidly conforming or conservative, and they perceive the "possibility vectors" as mostly low in magnitude and pointing in the normal way.

Some people are "lateral thinkers" compared to the status quo and see weird opportunities all around them. If they play the piano they'll always be looking to jazz it up in more and more crazy ways.

Some people would have a lateral perception but a conservative morality; like, they would have some deep gut level understanding of queerness but react in conservative ways out of fear or repulsion.

I suppose that real innovation probably isn't that much due to lateral imaginative personality, but more due to having immersive knowledge enough that you just see way ahead, plus confidence and close-knit support from conspirators.

Steve Jobs still has the best quote on this that I know.

Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn't really DO it, they just SAW something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That's because they were able to connect experiences they've had and synthesize new things. And the reason they were able to do that was that they've had more experiences or they have thought more about their experiences than other people.

Unfortunately, that's too rare a commodity. A lot of people in our industry haven't had very diverse experiences. So they don't have enough dots to connect, and they end up with very linear solutions without a broad perspective on the problem. The broader one's understanding of the human experience, the better design we will have.
I'm excited for all of the ports of C++ projects the web will get.
