Can PWAs charge users as easily as native apps? I think that is the killer feature for developers. As soon as we have that, native apps will go away quickly.

I only install native apps if I absolutely have to. But I am happy to try websites. Not sure how many users are like me in this regard?
To be fair, this is trivial to automate - barcode on the token, scan on the other side, conveyor belt pops out your trays.
A CRM+POS+ERP is pretty complex by itself, and being more configurable means more stuff is in the database vs the code.

I work with a platform that also does CRM/POS/ERP (plus a bunch more), and the products alone have over 10 tables for describing them: the base products, their variants, a list of generic variant attributes, a table detailing which variants have which attributes, a table for specifying the values that those variants have of those attributes, the product categories, two tables for configuring the taxes applied to each product (on purchases and sales), the product images, the list of suppliers.

We're already on 10 and we haven't even used those products for anything (stocking, selling, invoicing, purchasing, etc, etc).

The author says you can feel like an imposter when you're a minority, whether gender or race. I think there's much evidence out there about women that are not being validated in the tech and startup space the same way as men... Just look at female founder statistics.

> 1. James Clapper is not in the NSA.

It's true that James Clapper was not employed by the NSA at the time the question was asked. Are you suggesting that therefore he does not know the answer? If he does not know the answer then why did he answer the question?

> 2. The NSA never recorded all domestic phone calls, and there is no evidence that they ever did, so neither Clapper nor the NSA lied about that.

The question posed in the linked video clip is "Does the NSA collect any type of data at all on millions, or hundreds of millions of Americans?".
This article was very refreshing for me because each bullet point was like yes this is totally how I feel. Even reading about this issue gives me a lot of anxiety.

I built a 6 figure business on my own from $1500, imported my first goods from overseas, been validated with mentorship from 7 and 8 figure business owners, I'm now a board member of an org in my industry, and I still have extreme amounts of imposter syndrome.

Even when I realized that the reason I'm not as successful as some of my peers is because they started with a bigger investment than $1500 or that they built their success over years... I can't help but be anxious over what I've achieved in comparison to theirs when I end up thinking about it. I try not to because it's not productive.

I wish there were more resources to overcome imposter syndrome as a founder or business owner.

Poor people get free healthcare in the US. I'm not sure how you could not know that after decades of that being the case. Medicaid has existed since 1965. Not only has it broadened out considerably, today there is also CHIP and SS disability to further supplement that along with countless smaller programs.

Just Medicaid + CHIP covers 70 million people, about 22% of the US, or twice the entire population of Canada.

The US also has vast housing subsidization programs for poor people.
This was A1, which came out in 2010. I've spent two years using it, I know its strengths and weaknesses, there are just better offers out there.
Probably good for starting new projects. The ecosystem looks clean with separation of concerns. Not worth the pain migrating old projects to Angular 2/3/4/5/6/n, unless you have the resources to do so.
Same, they handled the transition terribly, I really wanted to use angular but I stuck with knockout and then ended up going to VueJs instead.
The idea is that startups are very hard work and you need someone to bounce your ideas off, do some heavy lifting, who is also completely supportive of your success. Someone who pulls you back up when you hit the floor hard.

My theory has often been that many "solo founders" actually get some very strong support elsewhere - whether it's their spouse or a relative. A lot of the more modern VC companies target very young entrepreneurs in their 20s, who probably have not gotten married yet.
You see, that’s where you’re missing the point entirely ... there’s more to conflict than violence ...
The quote I argued against didn't specify anything regarding your particular ad network. My argument was pretty simple: the content is more important than the origin.

> Since my ad network doesn't serve any JS from an advertiser

That's about content.

> As long as my browser doesn't load anything from different domains

That's about the origin.

Just because your network doesn't serve malicious JS, doesn't mean all networks do. And just because it comes from the same origin, doesn't mean it's safe.
isn't that intrinsic to companies with multiple founders?

For example:

you have a pool of 10 companies

6 of them exit

3 of the companies who exited had 2 founders each

3 of the companies who exited had one founder

in this world:

66% of founders who have exited, have had cofounders

now:

if you are a person who is founding a company, does bringing on a cofounder increase your chance of exiting in this world?
California's old people are already paying 10% income tax which they can easily avoid by moving to Oregon. Lower property taxes is a result of higher taxes.

Also property taxes are not there to decide who leaves and who stays. The only reason why we have property taxes is to pay for Police, Public schools and other bare minimum public services.
The Japanese invasions of Korea (1592–98) was largely caused by too many unemployed samurai warriors, who were largely out of jobs as peace spread in Japan. Toyotomi Hideyoshi, de facto ruler of Japan, needed to prevent disturbances by unemployed samurais and result was invasion of Korea. It's not the only reason, but a major one.

The scale of the war was massive. Japan alone brought a force of 158,800 in 1st invasion of 1592. In the 2nd invasion of 1597–98, Japan again brought similar number of troops.

For comparison in the Long Turkish War or Thirteen Years' War which was between 1593 to 1606, Ottoman Empire had 160,000–180,000 men.

Ming Dynasty sent 50,000 men to aid Korea, and some say this started the decline of Ming Dynasty.

One really great book I recommend for anyone wanting to learn about this war is

"The Imjin War: Japan's Sixteenth-Century Invasion of Korea and Attempt to Conquer China
August 12, 2014" by Samuel Hawley.

Some interesting tidbits from the book:

1. This war was the first time a large group of Christians (not Western but Japanese Christians) set foot in Korea. Of the 12 (?) forces commanded by different warlords, 2 or 3 had large number of Christians. And these were first Christians to set foot in Korea.

2. Chosun Dynasty court maintained the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty (also known as The True Record of the Joseon Dynasty), annual records of the Joseon Dynasty of Korea. They were kept from 1413 to 1865. The annals, or sillok, comprise 1,893 volumes and are thought to cover the longest continual period of a single dynasty in the world.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veritable_Records_of_the_Joseo...

Four copies of the records were kept in geographically separate area within Chosun. However during the Imjin War, 3 of the 4 were burned down by Japanese forces. The Imjin War book talks about how the last set of copy was being transported in numerous, lumbering carts pulled by ox to keep it out of marauding Japanese forces. The convoy was in a village when Japanese forces caught up. The convoy had not enough troops to resist. They then faked it to look like the village held more Korean troops than actual, by using extra flags and other camouflage. Japanese forces stayed away and this allowed the last backup of 4 backups to survive.

This tidgit was extra interesting to me for following:
1) Faking it till making it.
2) how 4 sets of backup was just barely enough.

Basic lesson of statistics: If you have one roll of the die statistics don't matter.

Seriously, the individual context of your situation weighs much much higher. I would only use advise in situations where I have zero ideas what to do next, and then only to start brainstorming.

Sometimes you have to do things that might even seem weird to other people. But always remember that other people are there to achieve their own goals, not yours. Even your parents might have goals that are competing with yours. E.g. they want you to be financially save because if you're not then they might need to take care of you again.

Pretty much everyone. People only install apps if they are planning to use it in a regular period.
Data seems pretty flawed. Looking at exits or more than $10m raised doesn't seem like the correct marker of success.

I think "success" should be measured in exits or ongoing profitable operations, as well as revenue growth over time. Looking at that data set and seeing if number of founders had a positive or negative effect would be very interesting, but perhaps more difficult to gather.

And as long as I am wishing for the perfect data set I would also include founder happiness (maybe using spousal divorce or tenure at the company as a proxy?). Because you might have an exit but have totally destroyed your personal life, and that doesn't sound like success to me.

Why? Just use the in tree Dockerfile (which didn't work due to linking errors with libstdc++.a missing definitions for basic_istream::ignore last I checked).
SEO is still an unsolved problem, imho. Has anyone experience with this? We run a ecom business with millions of products, fast responses in time are necessary for us.

I certainly like the idea of PWAs much more then fragmented native mobile ecosystems. But it seems quite complicated compared to a classic web app. As others noted, service workers are tricky to set up.

Maintaining the offline cache is quite hard. I am quite sure that average ecom apps will easily hit the proposed 10 MB cache quota if the useful views for offline viewing are preloaded. Strictly using an LRU seems silly because the user will likely do different things if he realizes he cannot load new content. (I.e. he could decide to prepare an order with his data.) There are lots of tough decisions to be made even before thinking about cache invalidation.

Routing and history changes are quite puzzling for me. Quick tests on history api made me realize that it is 10 times harder then it looks, not even sure if it works.
"It would be quite a twist if a technology whose most ardent fans are motivated by distrust of central banks became a key tool for those banks."

It's the other way around: the fact that publicly provable and verifiable financial systems are possible, yet the central banks didn't work this out (what they should have been striving for from the start), nor improve on it for another decade now is what fuels distrust of the old blindly trusted financial systems.
Firefox for Android (other then Focus/Klar) has the added benefit of also providing cosmetic content blocking.

Some in my family have a mild form of schizophrenia (mild as in not completely life destroying) and fika always seemed to set the minds flying. Not a breakfast or afternoon went by where not some incredible machine was constructed or some enormous project was discussed. To be honest though for these to become real a pressing need or some cooler minds constant pressure necessary. Usually a prototype was built and then abandoned due to boredom.
Not all the businesses have the man power and budget to maintain a website and native apps for each platform. If you decide to build it yourselves then you have to learn Swift/Kotlin/React Native. The time spent for learning these would be more than enough to learn fundamental of PWA and launch multiple stable versions of your PWA website. There are plenty of websites like nomadlist which makes use of PWA because of these reason and it is developed and managed entirely by levels.PWA apps are a blessing for Indie developers who have limited resources and are constrained to make use of the building things most effectively.
I don't know what you're trying to say. That violence has been used as a solution to problems? Sure. It has. That violence has, rarely, in some cases, been a sufficient answer for a problem? Sure. You cited a few. But that's not what you started out saying. You said that violence has "solved more problems in human history than any other solution" which is ridiculous.

Oh, and I don't think hunting animals for food is the kind of "violence" we're discussing.

I once saw a memorable setup on a fairly desolate piece of Queensland highway: There were three flagmen (as they are or were called Down Under) spaced over with a few hundred meters between them, each with a flag warning me to slow down, roadwork ahead. At the other end three others, of course, to take care of traffic in the opposite direction.

But here's the thing: There wasn't any roadwork in between. There had been, but everything was neatly packed away.

Then again, I've worked in public administration. Nothing will shock me.

My wager would be AR. We have a few years yet before we see useful, comfortable, well-designed AR environments, but once they cross a certain threshold they'll immediately obsolete a massive section of the computer dislay market, as well as provide numerous opportunities for further innovation. Given that it's a market in which products will succeed or fail based primarily on UX, ease of use, and quality of design, each a strong point of Apple, they have the potential to take the sector by storm.

Which filter lists? What do you mean by "noncommercial license"?
This could be done but it would probably kill or slow technological progress and economies.

For example, China is extremely good at manufacturing, Japan and South Korea are great at electronics manufacturing, Germany engineering disciplines, etc, etc. North America could do this but everything would be very expensive or impossible to source locally.

Also, what about food? Do you enjoy coffee? Well it got to North America on a ship. How about bananas? Same thing, that tropical fruit's year round availability is due to shipping logistics. The same thing applies to most "everyday" goods like chocolate, transistors, cotton, etc, etc.

Also, going back to China, they don't only manufacture cheap goods to be shipped to Wal-Mart. They are also a major farming and agriculture producer.

VS has alot of stuff which is missing in Code, so Code has of course new shiny features every release. I mean just the XAML development is missing (as far as i know). That was also the point why they released VS Community, to allow Independent developers to develop for there UWP Platform. Also MS uses VS in several other Products, like sql management studio (they releases a cross platform tool lately), or Blender. Both are just VS with a bunch of other Plugin/Projekt Templates. I also know some Companys who uses VS Shell - a striped down Visual Studio - for there own internal software.

Also, if i'm not wrong, VSCode is electron based app. If VSCode will have the same amount of fearures as VS, i think they will have Performance and Memory issues. Just a few weeks ago they published a blog post, how they improved the performance of the editor for large files (fun fact, Atom had the same problem and they solved it by implementing a native Textbuffer, no JS). So adding new features to VSCode will bring new challenges to performance and memory consumption. And don't forget, there are people out there complaining about why the slack app needs so much memory....

So all in all, yes maybe Vscode will replace VS but this is a really long road to go.

Third party hosting means it is a lot easier to pay a website per view. You can't do that if the ads are hosted on a domain not controlled by the advertiser.

Similarly, if you are going to personalize the ads, they need access to some third party that has this personalization.

Not that I am defending the current state of web advertising, just explaining why it is third party hosted.
There is such a theory, yes. It has obviously never encountered low-paying, shitty, backbreaking work on the factory floor.

Not quite. The point of a startup is to get rich and then not think about money. It's why people endure the pain. (It wasn't till I tried starting one that I realized just how painful it is.)

this is purely sophistic. It is shady to block ads and sell ads at the same time, but for me at least "ad blocker" meant "stop redirecting me to crap sites while clicking on your menus".

I'm not sure what you mean by "churn for churn's sake"?

The AngularJS to Angular upgrade step is a big one. But, the latter is unquestionably a better framework once you're using it. It only needs to be done once, and it can be done gradually, if you're willing to ship both frameworks for a while. The upgrade modules they provide for running AngularJS code in Angular (and vice-versa) were a bit dodgy at first, but they are excellent now.

Once you're on Angular, there's no need for any 6-month rewrites. We upgraded about a year and a half ago, and we've kept up to date without facing any problems with backwards incompatible changes or upgrade pain. The Angular team has done a lot of work on improving the framework's internals, but the actual conceptual model and interfaces have remained stable.

Plus, if you use Angular CLI, you're also isolated from churn in the build tool world. You don't have to worry about juggling compatible versions of Webpack and its myriad loaders and plugins. It's all hidden away. Having wasted far too many hours of my life hacking on Grunt, then Gulp, then Webpack configs, that's reason enough to use Angular for me.
