>That was absolutely economics on my part.

The content of your explanation after the fact does use quantification, but the personalization you originally wrote is pure humanities.

Further, the story you've told about what care went into your six-word comment: also pure humanities.

And let's not overlook the other humanities-based flaw in your six allegedly deeply considered words: if "everything is economics" then why is economics the study of the world using models? By their definition, models fail at being "everything" they model.

If it's a must have for you, you could try buying a copy of Crossover, which is a commercial version of Wine that employs several Wine developers.

Anyone who owns Crossover is entitled to support, and you may be able to then submit your specific program over to the devs to take a look and see if they can figure out why it's not working.*

Note: I say "might" and "may" because buying a Crossover license doesn't automatically entitle you to demand support for any obscure program you can think of. The developers will take a look at your logs and offer suggestions with no guarantee of a fix. But it is a way of supporting Wine development.
When I was in the Army, in 1971, there was a computer in our supply warehouse. The programmer was rotating home and there was no replacement. I was assigned to the task. I got two weeks of OJT from the programmer before he said "Good luck" and went home.

I was left with a few manuals and a few file cabinets full of programs punched on 80 column cards. The computer was a Univac 1005, an ancient card processor with 4K core, yes core, memory and a few peripherals (card reader, collator, card punch, line printer).

After a few months, I decided that I wanted to learn more about computing. When my service was over, I went to college (UMASS, Amherst) on the GI Bill and graduated in 1974. I had very little student debt it was paid off in about a year.

I have been programming ever since I graduated, I work mainly in Python nowadays.
The ability to use the responsive flexbox classes has been game changing for me. I can do large portions of a fully responsive flexbox layout with css classes like d-md-flex and flex-md-row, etc. This drastically cuts down on the amount of stuff that needs to be in my styles.less or whatever. And it makes maintenance easier for that reason as well.

To finish the layout I generally am making a few utility classes to control things like color and spacing (not a fan of the default bootstrap spacing classes). And then of course custom CSS for navigation, typography and other misc widgets.

But the bulk of the main layout is handled entirely with bootstrap classes. And because nearly everything can be specified with the responsive breakpoint prefixes, I don't have to write repetitive media queries.
I like it quite a bit, even applied for the related dev-advocacy job (and was resoundingly ignored; rightly so, I might add). It removes the complexity layer of having to deal with multiple packaging systems, and it isolates the app at the user level which helps with dependencies.

The only issue I see, really, is that it does not appeal to the traditional Linux userbase, the greybeards and neckbeards who are used to all the packaging esoterica. It’s a user-friendly concept that happens to be very developer-friendly too, but has no appeal for the sysadmin crew, which is still the majority in Linux land. So it risks being ignored.
Pay for a patent lawyer's time, $500-$1000 (or less if you're lucky). Or some clever combination of retainer or something.

It'll save you 10-100x that much in pain and suffering. And it always pays dividends to talk to a professional.
Some people seem to have figured out how to detect without relying on fingerprinting the browser. ex. Crunchbase

but headless chrome shouldn't be possible to distinguish from a regular chrome browser.

The only vector to block scraper is some sort of navigational awareness that deviates from a distribution curve + awareness of IP.

but this comes at a great cost to hurting your own real vistors by taxing them with captcha or other annoyances.
I mean yeah, but I want to buy a house soon. Me closing an account will have a negligible effect on the system but a large effect on my ability to get a mortgage.
It means they're probably tired of maintaining standards such that their application can run on multiple distros, and have decided to shove it in a container.

I love the idea of snaps, but good grief they sometimes have really backwards build processes -- start with a traditional rootfs, install packages, delete cruft (pray you didn't delete the wrong cruft), export and call it a day.

Indeed. A web site is an API, a crappy one, yes, but also one without unnecessary auth requirements and one they can't remove without removing their business.
This is an informative talk that mostly highlights errors of user interfaces, specifically in regards to software and software development. He shows you the errors that seem so obvious and clear of their inconsistencies after pointed out, though the UIs are getting better, he hopes that future interface designs aren't so easily picked apart in 20 years from now. User Experience and UI Designers could learn something here and apply it to their designs.
I've definitely owned a Casio calculator that worked on fractions rather than decimals and could even work in terms of roots and certain irrational numbers like e and pi.

For example, sqrt(2) + sqrt(8) would print 3 sqrt(2) rather than 4.242640687119286~

I wish I knew how it worked, it's probably something simple like suggested in another comment.

Apple Bans Net Neutrality Testing App
Without wanting to diminish the technological achievement behind that in any way, but it is really not that uncommon to create features that are smaller than the tools we use to make them. An obvious example are the details on a sculpture which can be much smaller than the chisel used to create them. Maybe not a perfect analogy because you only really use the edge and don't just throw the chisel in the rough direction of your marble block. Anyway.
> In the medium term, they get public transit systems shut down

This sounds like grade-A bullshit. At best rideshare services reduce the use of personal cars and compete with taxi services, but they can't or won't compete with mass transit.

Moreover the upper or even middle class aren't exactly the target market of public transportation services. If anyone was switching from public transportation to rideshare services, that would be the class you assert is being oppressed, which makes absolurely no sense.
> More likely the user who asked it (3 questions, 0 answers) got bored and never "accepted".

Call me, uhm, skeptical. I wonder why he'd get bored, if not for receiving non-working answers. I wonder if it's at all akin to how I'm in the same situation and the answers don't work for me either. That strangely correlates with the lack of an accepted answer. Yeah, "not causation", I know. Doesn't change anything.

> You could still update all the individual programs manually like you would on windows. Which is what I thought you were advocating?

No you can't, which is my point. These programs depend on different versions or libgl/libmesa/whatever is causing the problem. So I can't update anything that needs a newer (or older?) version because it chokes when there are multiple versions needed. That's a non-problem on Windows, and if 10 years ago the story was different that means, well, nothing.
Does this still apply to carbon fiber body planes like the 787? I know aluminum has can only be flexed so many times before it cracks but if the plane is made from a different material, would this rule still apply?
> often to no benefit of the local population.

Considering they'll be hiring a lot of locals, and property values will most likely rise, and the associated peripheral startups will start flourishing due to Amazon expats, I don't see what your point is.

It's not like they're building a NFL stadium, which is almost always a huge boondoggle. Would you rather have Amazon HQ, a football stadium, or watch your city fade into irrelevance?
They wouldn't have to do that if the website wasn't - purposefully or through crappy engineering - making the data unnecessarily difficult to get and process by machines.
China may have a middle class, but that middle class is still making a low $1000/month, even if that middle class is slightly bigger than 100M

I'm not sure why people think the data is being collected for advertising, as opposed to, say, improving the ground-truth on the Google Maps dataset.

Sure, if the punishment is perceived to be applied reliably and accurately.

If it's perceived to be applied in a spotty manner, according to shifting whims of the leadership as to issues of concern, and with favoritism that can see the guilty free and the innocent punished, then, no, that just incentivizes currying favor and trying to influence the leadership perception that drive where enforcement is and isn't focussed.
I'd agree with you if you removed "for people who currently aren't residents (or don't yet exist)" from the sentence, but leaving it in there means creating more inequality than economic progress.

Why would it be more expensive? Google's annual revenue is 13 billion for around 1.3 billion users. That is $10 per user per year or less than $1 per user per month. Google certainly has a rationale for not providing a subscription option, but it is not 'raw revenue'
Hi...presenter here. This has been posted a couple times and it's always flattering and a bit nerve wracking.

I think you are reading too much into my comment.

I am simply stating that "good" and "populist" are two different things.
IMO, HN incentivize having popular opinions. Saying "HN incentivizes good behavior" comes with an underlying assumption that "populist" is "good" which I was trying to point out via my comment.

> I'm not sure if "populist" is as pejorative as you think it is when describing HN.

I am not using "populist" in perjorative sense.

> Is it possible to have a forum on the internet with hundreds of active users that doesn't leverage a populist model (upvotes/favorites/likes)? Even places where the comments aren't ranked by the users they ARE ranked by activity (bumps/views) behind the scenes.

Nearly all internet forums I have used leverage the populist model. However, I think this is more due to the designers of these forums. The designers of these forums want to show the most "relevant content" and their definition of "relevant content" seems to be the content with which most people agree. I believe one could experiment with different definition of "relevant content" to create different forums.

Can you remember details of what you ate for dinner two weeks ago? Probably not. That's because it's not very important.

On the other hand, I can remember one meal I ate several years ago in great detail, because it had three of the best dishes of their type I've ever had (sashimi, pasta, and ice cream in one meal!). That meal mattered. But I'd have a hard time telling you what I ate last thursday.
It is possible - but officially discouraged - to do a dist-upgrade on Ubuntu. Sometimes it works, other times it 'almost' works. It is the latter problem which makes the official discouragement a reasonable precaution against breakage. Things like the mysql->mariadb migration in Debian might necessitate manual intervention but this is made clear from the onset.
You are in principle correct, but in practice you need to account for the side channels of information as well -- does the mouse and keyboard behave like a human or a robot? Are there thousands upon thousands of sessions coming from the same IP address?

The cat and mouse game happens at every level, not just the DOM/browser-detection level.
well headless browsers exist because they are less expensive to automate than real browsers, adding in the computer vision and the scraper just added a lot of expense.
Which, for 99% of extension-equipped users, will be just an ad blocker, i.e. something the websites don't want to deal with either.

I've seen Brutalist design being mentioned a few times here and it always shows this website gallery, I am no specialist, so I wonder, is this what brutalist design really is?

Quick Google search explains that brutalist architecture is about creating modular elements representing specific functionality often sacrificing aesthetics.

A lot of the sites on that gallery are ugly just for being ugly, they have no functionality and use different types of animations or constructs to just make something unconventional from common website aesthetics, I get why, but it feels like the word brutalist was borrowed here and is applied in a very different way.
I work on the TV team at Roku, building software for our smart TV platform. We've been shipping versions of Roku OS for our TV partners since 2014, and the first TVs enabled with Roku OS are still getting regular updates here in 2018, as are most of our streaming boxes (any released after summer 2011). Plus, if you end up not liking the Roku TV smart features, you can always factory-reset the TV and run it in unconnected mode.
Well done to the Bootstrap team!

I'm a little surprised though, that jQuery is still a requirement. I'm guessing that this might be due to linked JS components that they don't have permission to modify?
You're not wrong. AgentME is correct, that crashes can be exploitable, but it is definitely more dangerous for software to continue after its data is corrupted.

The Erlang programming language, in fact, is built around the idea that as soon as you see data you don't expect, you crash, and an external process will start you back up in a known good state.
> Tom Tromey and I have replaced the most performance-sensitive portions of the source-map JavaScript Library’s source map parser with Rust code that is compiled to WebAssembly. The WebAssembly is up to 5.89 times faster than the JavaScript implementation on realistic benchmarks operating on real world source maps.

Wow. Some people have been wondering if Rust has a "killer app", but this could be it. Right now WebAssembly only supports non-GC languages (so C, C++, and Rust), and of those three Rust is the easiest to get started with. It looks really appealing.
> It doesn't sound like something I'd care much about.

That's OK. It's a free country you can live where and how you want.

But recognize that many, especially increasing numbers of millennials, feel differently and this is now reshaping the demographics of cities.
Rate-limiting followed by CAPTCHAs seems to be the usual strategy.

Taxes on land have been popular forever. Adam smith talked about it, then Ricardo formalized why rent is what it is, to which Marx barely made an addition and Henry George made an economic and moral argument for Land Value Tax in California. That was over 100 years ago.

Today, Krugman, Stiglitz and Milton Friedman agree on land value taxes.

The economic consensus on this topic was achieved long ago. Its a political issue , not an economic one.

> When I care, and have a professionally made UI design on input, default styles & templates are not that relevant for both platforms. I need to create my own ones anyway to implement what the UI designer wants.

A good UI designer may not realize that they desire some of the same ideals as the platform defaults, especially with something like the Fluent Design System. It may not be your job to second guess a UI designer you are working with, but there are times where it makes sense to encourage a UI designer to know/understand the defaults of the platform, and especially the reasons for the defaults of the platform. I've been especially glad since the Fluent branding attempt that Microsoft has been doing a much better job documenting it and the reasoning behind it, as you can see in the links above.

> Right, but in my experience when I don’t care about UI design, I can use anything, even win forms.

In my mind, that is when defaults matter most, when you don't care. If you can get a lot of niceties for free, with no extra work on your part because they are the default, on a platform like UWP, then why not take advantage of that?

The software world and especially the enterprise software world is full of programs built by programmers that could care less about UI design and it shows, and it makes users miserable, even when those users are our future selves sometimes. So many papercuts that could have been avoided by choosing a platform with better defaults to begin with. (Friends don't let friends choose WinForms in 2018.)
So scrappers will start OCRing screenshots.

> “If war breaks out lots of sparks and bullets go back and forth.... Cotton tends to melt and vanish but vinalon burns you because it sticks to your skin,” Jung said. “The uniforms made of vinalon are not suitable for combat. When it rains, the uniforms soak up water and become very heavy, which inevitably makes it difficult for soldiers to move. After a while, the uniforms turn very stiff.”

So basically they are wearing flammable and stiffening clothing that defeats the very purpose of combat uniforms....how can a country like this even survive the first few days of war? More reasons for it to never give up its nuclear weapons.

Ok, thanks! It seems to me that these aren’t mutually exclusive, rather complementary. The embodied approach, reminds me of the Montessori attitude of exploration / discovery and the metaphor of stacked paper, the industrial age, man as machine. How about seeing it as the difference between cultivating (complex, holistic, iterative, like ANNs) vs constructing (simple, compositional) or the principles of intuition and logic? Also, I suppose one may move in the other direction, from higher level conceptual to embodied understanding via iterative refinement.
