Having a baby will really flip this on its head. I used to "geek out" like my wife would say for a few hours on the weekend, sometimes an entire day, uninterrupted. This is all over now. I barely get 3 hours block at best, once or twice a week (rarely).

Thing is, there is hope, I can still get some really big things done. I realise now how much time was wasted in the past, clicking around the web, diverging. When you're on a deadline of productive time, focus goes up 300%.

Because you'll come to hate that feeling of being forced to stop as you were just getting into it.
I'm principally against abstracting package management across platforms, because experience has taught me that the software management subsystem of the target platform is the best system for that platform. I see no point in this abstraction since I understand that the best packaging format is the native format, and I've no problem mastering the native format.
Ask HN: Are new desktop applications being built without Electron?
Most new desktop applications I notice seem to be built on Electron, much to the chagrin of many commentators, who complain about large download sizes and excessive resource usage. But developers must still be creating new desktop applications using traditional desktop technology, right? Or are these technologies mostly used in legacy projects?
This is addressed in Cal's book. He acknowledges no plan will survive the day perfectly. Basically, you just re-prioritize your blocks throughout the day. The goal is not to break the day into hour long blocks as much as it is to always have a priority and to maintain focus on that priority. Things happen and no plan survives contact with reality. I have found this method to work well and fit with a modern knowledge worker's work patterns for the most part.
Ubiquiti is overpriced and Mikrotik is underpowered. There are good consumer routers that have 802.11ac for the price of a wired-only Ubiquiti router. If you're comfortable installing OpenWRT, it still offers more capabilities for a lower price than those "prosumer" brands that pretend to be real enterprise-grade stuff.
Yes, it’s a pretty standard feature which is why it works so well. You can Typescript->ES->bundled ES->bundled minified ES and Chrome will point you directly at the original source in the debugger (once you give it permission).

I will happily point the finger at any tech giant when it does wrong, but Samsung didn't do anything to warrant years of court battles and accusations. It's tiring to hear people defend Apple's sideshow legal agenda.

The "touch screen phone" was inevitable, and was always going to be something with round-ish corners, flat, with icons. The shape is too fundamental to the ergonomics of such a device. There's too little room for difference in design, relative to the objective of making such a device comfortable to hold. I had the Nokia N9 for awhile, and the pointy/squared corners were not a great feature. They probably wanted to avoid rounded corners, which is a ridiculous situation where consumers lose out.

In large part yes, you are right, his writing was more qualitative and sociological, sometimes philosophy.

But seeing your comment made me start trying to dig up a 1987 paper from Alexander titled, "Toward a Personal Workplace," and I am actually amazed and unsettled by how hard it is to find anything online. That article surveys more empirical properties of office interiors. But yes, I would look to the studies cited in the Peopleware chapter called, "Bring Back the Door" for the empirical extensions of what Alexander had inspired.

Live Darshans from Temples Made Popular by House of God
The concept of LIVE Darshans in today's technology driven world sounds just normal. But the amount of impact it has brought to the society is humongous. India is a land of Religious Beliefs and people have immense faith in God. Think about your grandmother (Dado/Nani) who found her peace in starting her day by visiting the temple religiously everyday. But her age and health doesn't allow her to follow her daily routine. Wouldn't she be sad and disheartened. 'Live Darshans' could bring back her zeal to start her day by worshipping the God the way she used to. Everyday witnessing the 'Live Aarti', 'Live Darshans' and 'Live Puja' sitting at home. You have to be emotional about your faith to even imagine the feeling your grandmother will have. 'House Of God' has just bridged this gap. House Of God App helps people find peace through 'Live Darshans' even if they're unable to visit the temple. Early morning 'Live Aarti' from famous temples like 'Siddhivinayak Temple','Mahakaleshwar Temple' ,'Kashi Vishwanath Temple','Hanuman Temple, Patna', Hazur Sahib Gurudwara' etc can be seen on the mobile phones. The concept of Live Darshans from famous temple was spread across and made famous by 'House of God'. Even though these were provided by others but no one could bring together this many temples or touch the lives of people in the way 'House Of God' did by making Live Darshans easily accessible.

I was 7, 30 years ago. We wouldn't have a computer in the house for another 10 years.

Owning a personal computer in the 80's wasn't given, even in the middle class white Connecticut suburban neighborhood I grew up in.

I was introduced to Logo at school maybe not at seven, but maybe 11?

Looking back, I would have given anything to just have more play time where I made up the rules, and those rules weren't called "rules" (because that's what playing is, right?)

As an adult, I find that I'm not playing by making computer programs, but by going into the woods, and pretending I'm basically a kid and exploring and getting a bit caught up in my own imagination. It's... it's lovely.

Your reply made me chuckle and you are right.

For me personally, I derive a lot of self-identity from my own productivity, and end up caring about my work and treating it like a craft.

I wish I could turn this off and just accept better paying jobs that embed me in a distraction-filled room where nobody really cares about my productivity so long as I superficially appear to try hard and evangelize the company line.

But I just can't. I am too intrinsically quixotic. For me, and the I guess dying breed of people like me, the side effect of the VC behavior you mention is like death by a thousand cuts.
Don't know Hungarian, but pluralization is more than changing the noun after a number.

For example, in full phrases like "Clear history after N days", "Found N files" some languages would change the part before the number (instead or together).

Another example is text+button "N items in your cart [Buy them now]". The text may be unaffected by the number at all, but in the button "them" usually has to become "it" when N is 1.

I don't think the article is accurate. Turkish definitely shouldn't be together with Chinese, it needs plural forms in some situations in which Chinese doesn't, I know this because our product was localized for both. Unicode CLDR is recommended reference.

No, it would be the same rule, just phrased better. The rule works by introducing a disjunction (to match the one you already have), not by eliminating one.

Given

a implies p
b implies p
a or b

you can conclude ((a or b) implies p) from my statement of the rule, and then conclude "p" from modus ponens. And if you're feeling really obscurist, you can rename modus ponens to "proposition elimination".

But notice that if you have

a implies p
b implies p
c implies p
a or b or c

then my statement of the rule will still allow you to conclude "p", whereas the statement on wikipedia won't.

Stewart Brand: Don't to get stuck over-adapted on some local peak of fitness
IMHO TI-BASIC is one of the best environments for learning. Not because it's the most capable of languages or runtime engines, but because it has menus. Lots and lots of menus. The usability on a phone emulator is the same as the real thing.

When you're starting out, and even more so when you're young, syntax is the issue. Every paren and sigil you have to type or complicated function name you have to spell is one more bomb that could explode. Keyboarding is tedious. Vocabulary is hard.

And on the TI's, most of that is eliminated by the method of input. While you can turn on an alphabetic mode to type characters, and simple algebraic expressions can be input from the calculator face keys, the environment pushes you to browse and explore the menus of library functions. Browsing is fun at any age. It is not the most efficient thing, but programming was never about how fast you can type.

So your syntax error rate goes way down and while some reference and guidance is needed to know how to use a lot of the functionality, you can focus more on the semantics of, e.g., "what is a subscript error?"

Environments that go heavily graphical like Scratch also have this kind of benefit, but the method used by TI-BASIC, which is mostly an artifact of being designed for a limited interface circa 1990, results in source code that looks and behaves similarly to other languages, making it that extra bit more transferrable.

And the functionality is good for drawing things and building up math concepts, although it's not great as a games environment. I remember my older brother making an Asteroids clone on his TI-82. He got it to where it rendered everything, moved and rotated objects, and took input, but he ran out of single-letter variable names to use. I think if he had known to use the built in matrix and list functionality to store object state and do transforms, he would have been able to take it much farther, but there was a lack of guidance on these things in the early 90's.

> These kinds of cells require two well-matched organic molecules. The first, usually a polymer, absorbs light and produces excited charges. The second, usually a small molecule, pulls electrons from the first, allowing them to flow through electrodes so the cell can generate current. The challenge is that when chemists improve, say, the light absorption of the donor, its electronic properties may no longer pair well with the acceptor

Those words are also empty if they are not provided along with a rubric of what they mean. Equality is perhaps more troublesome than meritocracy while diversity is somewhat better.

It is not obvious that diversity is a good thing, so it has more bits of information if you make it a value. Not much, though, if you do it like most corporations in a shallow and vague way.
> Even with something running on it, that’s not automatically gonna give it access to any other hardware component in the phone. The phone itself is only interested in using it for identification.

I can't tell if this is true or false, but it seems that in either case, access to the SIM can imply access location data:

No I didn't, you should read it again. The original thread was about GDPR in general until the other commenter started talking about me and my company personally. We're not confused on whether it applies to us, although there are plenty of specifics that lack guidance.
Boom! Nailed it. As much as I love the hashgraph tech, it is not pure both with respect to the patent AND the few dozen 'overseers' (or whatever they will be called) that they will have in place. They really need to have an opensource concept. I warned the Swirlds team that their tech will be knocked off--patent or no patent--so they better get big dominance fast!!
> Quit moving the goalposts. Objective morality is not the same as whether lexical definitions of "good" and "evil" exist in all the world's languages.

What are you talking about? I was only ever talking about the lexical part, which was what the original parent of these comments was talking about (e.g. removing the lexical part just because the objective part doesn't exist in complex moral philosophy terms). No goalpost moving (I'm really not sure what you're talking about with that.)

> My real point which you left out is that judgements about such things should really be left to the reader. Saying such things like "x is evil" really doesn't help the conversation.

What? Again I am not seeing a connection either to your earlier comment or my original point. But regardless, I disagree with the claim that "Saying such things like "x is evil" really doesn't help the conversation".

It absolutely does help when there is a commonly understood lexical (as you call it) notion of evil that's widely accepted.
I have seen large real-word applications written in QBASIC. It's nothing to sneeze at. I think we often overlook the value of simplicity. Today's "high abstraction" languages offer a great deal, but when the rubber hits the road, they too often prove more trouble than they are worth.
Perhaps you should take your own advice.

Disabling JavaScript actually works great on news sites as far as I remember.

It used to be that disabling JS rendered web pages illegible. But good CSS changed that. So now you can read sites perfectly fine with JS. You can't interact, but you can read.

EDIT: Wow I just tried disabling JS on nytimes.com and it's INCREDIBLE. Reallly, try it. In Chrome I used the pattern [*.]nytimes.com. Not sure what that syntax is.

I think the point is, you have to write the fallback anyway. There really is no "enhanced", as they are two different ways to reach the same solution. The user won't notice a difference, and no sane person wants to do the same thing twice just because one method is slightly cleaner.

This is why CSS grids have been a nonstarter for most of us.

Thanks for the extended explanation. Lots of things to chew on.

Yeah, I am unhappy that they are focusing Dart more on the client side (another reason, I didn't look too closely at it) -- focus like that is probably good for language adoption in some niche, but it would be nice to have a good strongly typed language that also has good support, good tooling and extensive libraries for use both on the client side and the server side (and for mobile app development!) so you have only one language to deal with everywhere. Dart is one of the few languages that from the outside seems closest to that ideal.

Oh, how many hours I spent in front of that TUI. QBasic was how programming should be. It's amazingly simple to understand (at the cost of ugly and somewhat verbose syntax). It doesn't force any mental burdens on you, and it included both a compiler and a interpreter, so you could run your programs instantly (with array out-of-bounds and overflow checking) and have a fast, compiled version.

I wrote plenty of programs that worked the first time I ran them, something that seldom happened to me in more modern programming environments, which put many mental burdens on you, and encourage writing fast and sloppily, and then improving your mistakes afterwards. You don't need any boilerplate - I regularly used QBasic to just plot a graph for example (in a program written from scratch).

Also, I like the approach to pointers is very nice, I think. There are no pointers. You need to PEEK or POKE into memory! In C you do

a = *b

In QBasic you do

a = PEEK(b)

Which is so easy to understand that I sometimes wonder if pointers is C are even an improvement to this. I'm probably being a bit nostalgic here, but I genuinely miss the feeling of mastery and understanding I had when I used QBASIC. I could do anything I needed inside the editor. No plethora of tabs and windows. In my opinion, programming is too complicated nowadays.

Edit: More nostalgy! The help system was absolutely amazing. It was possible to read a keyword for the first time, press F1, and two minutes later you would actually understand the statement. Something I never experienced afterwards.
