I'm not sure about the total affect on sleep, but another affect of the blueish lights is macular degeneration, a google search brings up a lot of resources on it. From what I understand, your eyes have a hard time focusing on bluish light, so the constant strain increases the chances of contracting age-related blindness.
> Another source of explosives in the forests here are blanks that were left by NATO troops during maneuvers.

Blanks? As in blank small-arms ammunition and artillery rounds? I've never heard of them being a fire-risk before, or being dumped like that. They don't contain much explosive do they? How is this happening?
My favourite feature of iTerm is broadcasting keyboard input to multiple windows. I use that when doing certain kinds of server maintenance.
This f.lux stuff is really starting to cross the uncanny valley from well-intentioned concern to junk science conspiracy theory.

First of all, the idea that you "can't see" the differences in the light emitted by OLED vs. LCD is just absurd. It's called white balance, it's well understood, and any person with at least one functioning eye is going to pick out most OLED screens as having a blue/green tint to them.

To correct for this, the iPhone X was the first generation of Apple phone to adopt "True Tone", which matches the white balance of both OLED and LCD screens to that of the ambient environment. How convenient that they took the time to conjure up some bespoke metrics, but somehow didn't get around to mentioning this headlining feature of the iPhone X that has quite a lot of relevancy to the subject area. I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that it stomps all over the point they're trying to make.

As to "Night Shift" not making enough of a difference at the default setting... yeah, you know that you can change default settings? Indeed, with one finger swipe, I can spray tan my phone screen so hard it gets elected president. Turns out I don't need f.lux after all!
Akamai has different products, coming with different price tags/GB. Which product does this site take in to consideration?

Thanks for politely engaging with me. I hope you have a nice day to.
Is there any proof that the change of color by programs like flux or built-in OS "night-light" features improves anything?
for me the #1 thing is the non-standard full-screen behavior, which lets my hit cmd+return and instantly full-screen the window, without any animation or creating a second workspace.

Just curious, do you disagree with this?
I am still baffled that back then people could not build mechanisms to set a bomb off reliably, yet could build bombs that remained deadly while lying in the ground for what now amounts to a decent human lifetime. And I am deliberately ignoring the legacy of World War I here, which according to the latest forecasts will still take centuries to clean up.
The linked page notes that the Alexa provided stats might be considered inaccurate.

Either way, it has youtube.com on place 2. If that is counted as English, which I simply suppose were the case, "English is used by ..." is highly misleading in this context. Surely they don't analyze the video contents, maybe comments as proxy, never the less for music and the like the language doesn't even matter. Proficiency is a factor because a play button is neither English nor Japanese.

Please see https://w3techs.com/technologies/cross/content_language/char...

They compare UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1 (that's Latin-1) and a Cyrillic encoding. That's it. They simply don't analyze the Chinese market. Which is not surprising because Alexa is after all into advertising and focused on a target group. They include baidu, but probably only for comparison. I can't explain the mismatch any other way, that is the mismatch of English 50% compared to .de, .cz, .jp, .ru etc. each only ca. 2%. .de on second place ... wut?

English speakers are highly biased to rest on the assumption, because it's comforting. I can't even blame anyone for that. It's a shit language, but the comfort is the language has the grammar that is an easy learning.
The saying “all models are wrong, some models are useful” seems appropriate here. The interviewee is arguing against both the correctness and usefulness of “sub-conscious thought” as a model for the human mind. But he seems to conflate the two arguments. It sounded to me like he was saying: “Here are all the ways that the sub-conscious thought is wrong and confusing, so it must not be useful either!”

He talks about motor neurons and sensory processing as an unconscious brain process, which is so different from what we consider “thought” that it doesn’t make sense to call them unconscious thought. He then goes on to rail against Jung and Freud and psychology in general. But that’s a straw-man. Based on my limited knowledge, I don’t Freud et al were talking about the mechanical brain processes when they wrote about the unconscious mind. Instead, they were talking about things like the self-images and expectations that we hold at any given moment.

Like, if I hold a very low opinion of myself (like I did for most of my life) I might feel awkward and insecure around girls or certain social situations. The unconscious belief in those moments was that there was something inherently wrong with me (I was unloveable, of little value, etc). Ten years ago if you had asked me I would have told you I was amazing. I probably believed it at conscious level. But given my levels of anxiety back then, it certainly wasn’t true. It’s only now after some inner exploration that I am able to see and realize this.

Is it fair to call that unconscious or subconscious if these beliefs were there all along I wasn’t aware of them? I personal find that a useful model and I think that’s what psychologists have in mind when they use those words.
On the other hand, how many restaurants have you been in with brownish, bulging acoustic ceiling tiles?
I mean, that's the whole point of cmake, ninja, etc. They'll build all of those projects, complete with testing and other ancillary projects. You don't have to be an "build system expert".

And you can absolutely make your build times better than what you're citing, coming from someone with binaries measured in tens of megs with templates out the wazoo. Just break up your dependencies. Seriously, you can almost certainly get ten to hundred times faster with only a little bit of work (which more than pays for itself in increased productivity).
Tell me what you think about Muslims. Are they bad too?

The ability to set a hotkey to toggle the terminal is a must. I assigned ± to it (i.e. pressing it will toggle the window).
Yeah, I’m wondering about this too. I like transparent windows and font ligatures so as much excitement as I have about this, I won’t be able to use it unless these limitations can be eliminated. I’ll keep using iTerm regardless, but it would be nice to see the benefits become available for my setup as I do notice the performance issues.
Ah, that is interesting. I figure Numerical ODE solvers might be faster. But there is philosophical value in a series that is proven to converge for any time t. Do you happen to recall whether it is uniform convergence?
Then main drawbacks of sprintf are that it doesn't allow to find the shortest decimal representation and that its output depends on the current locale, so you often need something like sprintf_l which isn't portable.
For now, it is non-keyed. As I mentioned in some other comments I just wanted to get a beta out as I've been rewriting Moon for about a year and it's finally gotten to a semi-usable state.

A keyed implementation, single-file components (multi-file components exist with Moon CLI but I've started to like single-file components), custom DOM events, component inserts, and an official router are on my todo list. Hopefully you'll get to use the library this time :)

“Albright, who looks at least a decade younger than his 40 years”
Legislation happened in the '70s, but I would characterize those earlier movements as countercultural.

MeToo, as far as I'm aware, is the first time where allegations against sexual harassment are with the prevailing winds of modern American culture, and when people other than politicians have suffered actual blowback and consequences from such behavior.
The relevant stakeholders are elected, or nominated or hired by elected officials. And as already pointed out in a sibling answer, there kind of is such an office already in some sense.

The core of the problem is that if you try to introduce an extra layer of bureaucratic oversight, one might expect an outcry over it being technocratic or wasteful. So it's unfortunately not simple. (However much your viewpoint makes sense IMHO.)
Argg, now do I disable transparent background windows to support it?
On my Android phone, you can use night-light which just changes the spectrum of photons that hit your eye. The theory is pretty simple -- since lower wavelength photons have less energy than higher wavelength photons, the radiation ends up having less destructive potential. I would consider that an improvement.
It’s easier on your eyes to follow and just looks aesthetically better also.
I think it's worse in Electron because the JavaScript code runs in a more privileged context. At least, from my brief run-in with using Electron as a developer, it felt like Node.JS strapped to Chromium, in such a way that all JS code was not sandboxed.

The person who wrote this article seems more concern with phishing, but I don't think the RCE was as big of a leap as they think it was.
tmux can do this too inside of regular terminal (where windows = panes)
Well, we have fundamentally different moral valuations of situations then.
the advertising subset of that patreon exists because of the popularity of the open source project he develops full-time.
School can create these sort of spaces, at least to a degree. University for example is many people's first taste of independence, but that independence is supported by some fairly extensive safety nets (financial, social, educational, etc.) that should prevent screwing up too badly. These safety nets are certainly not perfect, and putting your face in bottle can still end quite poorly.

I think one way to create a face putting safe community (physical or virtual) is to allow anyone to safely propose actions but only let these actions effect the world if other community members agree. PR based workflows sort of fit this model. As a new programmer, I should be able to safely submit garbage PRs while learning without actually hurting anyone, and if my code does get merged and it breaks something then it's the community that failed. There are roleplaying communities that also work like this: users can only state their actions and not the effect of their actions, which are determined by the people effected. Of course learning and history also has to be considered. That first garbage PR is understandable, but if I keep submitting garbage PRs without learning then there's something wrong.
Z1d 4GHz “sustained all core turbo” either a mistake or broken
I've been load testing z1d last couple days and cpu's are always set at the base 3.4GHz. Turbostat doesn't run (likely due to kvm hybrid on nitro). Tried changing the cstate to 1 but always showing 9. I can only see 1 core go up to ~4GHz and only for a fraction of a second and only a handful of times. All other times they stay at 3400GHz. I opened a case with aws ec2 support team who doesn't know what's going on. They said they are escalating to the development and hypervisor teams.

Has anyone else tested the z1d and been able to get "sustained all core turbo" of up to 4GHz?

“Add to Cart” widget to put on any HTML website
Hey,

I've developed a simple web application which allows to create an online store. What differs it from the existing on the market is that the products can be presented on any website just by simple put a piece of Java Script & HTML code. It allows you to spread the products on blogs etc.

I need a group of people willing to test it. Here is the address https://buynowjs.com

Don't hesitate to create a store, add products etc. If you need some help ping me to hello@buynowjs.com.

Big thanks for all beta testers!

Regards

Andrew
As of 2018 there is no neat helpful way of resolving white space problems that I know of in Chrome devtools. I wish there was as I can remember trying to get the white space removed from a search box and the search submit button, almost getting into the realms of hacky negative margin things before the penny dropped that it was the white space problem that I had known since the IE6 days.

If using code to generate HTML then you can remove white space with Google's mod_pagespeed. This will only remove a certain amount and what remains either 'doesn't matter' or is something that needs fixing in templates.

I doubt there is a performance penalty for excessive white space but it is satisfying to be able to 'view source' for the document to be pretty printed with the exception of indentation. In my opinion source documents should be neat, otherwise might aw well just give up on HTML and go for some byte code HEX digit stream in a non-human-readable format.
Good insight.

I wonder if Snap suffers from similair thinking.
The Truth Behind Electrek's Shady Alliance with Tesla
After trying out alacritty[1] and seeing just how good gpu-accelerated terminal could be I’ve been eagerly awaiting an update like this from iterm.

I really wish iterm was cross platform. I’ve realized when switching between Mac and Linux how important the terminal is to my development and quality of life.

Your mileage may vary, but as someone with retinal degeneration it makes a pretty big difference. Photons in the red wavelengths of light carry less energy and put a lot less stress on the retina. Screens are pretty unpleasant for me to use unless they have a color filter on them, and it's the same reason I always keep deep red sunglasses on.
Nonsense! One of marketing's main purpose is to convince you that some thing is superior in some way regardless of whether or not it's objectively true (or even objectively provable).

Tastes differ, but we're talking about marketing, and I tend agree with the parent post that Tesla's marketing around their cars is much better than the production quality or design of the cars.

What frame rate does the built-in Terminal.app perform at in macOS 10.13?

> Most people who participate in the threads do so for complex social reasons that are not particularly different than the reasons that some people buy Starbucks, some people buy from an indie shop, and some people hit the Timmie’s drive-through.

To make a stronger statement, there is "actual" value, it's just that people are bad at describing it. Many people will go to Starbucks every day because "they like it" and that's about as good an explanation as you can get out of them. But they didn't just wake up one day and decide they were going to like Starbucks.

For me personally, I like the consistency of Starbucks. If you order the same drink at two different stores you'll get the same drink. This isn't something that a large corporation like that does on accident. It requires a lot of effort to get that consistency. And it's just one of the many reasons someone will like Starbucks without recognizing it's one of the reasons.

People similarly like Apple products for reasons that sound vague ("it's easier to use") but which are not an accident. Apple is highly vertically integrated to ensure many of those reasons. It's no coincidence that Tesla is also vertically integrated.
Problem 1 is something I'm super into. One place where I think I would use this is in parallel to a web annotation system. Two years ago I had to take a stats course at school and I often found the dry mathematical explanations in the textbook challenging to comprehend. I would go online and search for better answers and often find them. For example a math overflow page or youtube video which makes the problem click in my brain. Now two months go by, and I forget the same theorem. In the back of my mind, I'll remember reading that one mathoverflow page or following a series of links, but now those links are lost in my history.

What I would like to do is annotate the web with data similar to what you are capturing and create 'context chains' as little sidenotes in the margins of the web. Then when I come back to the theorem I'm failing to understand I see a little margin note of the pages I visited when I first read the chapter, and I can immediately regain the context I found in my original study session.
You are turning my experience into an attack on your worldview. I would engage with materialists more if they didn't have the nasty tendency of doing that.

Of course there's a correct answer. But there's no way to find out without using tools with a greater resolution than the ones we have. And even that wouldn't dispel all of the mystery.

I'm avoiding questions because there's no way to prove anything. If you want to explore your own mystery, then you need to do your own mysticism. You can ask all the questions you want, and get the same vague, non-specific sorts of answers I got, answers that don't resolve anything but only serve to deepen the mystery.

I was a materialist atheist at one point too. I investigated my beliefs. I'm no longer a materialist. I would be very happy to have the tools to better investigate the thing inside my head that I've carefully cultivated a relationship over the course of five years.

But having the answers won't make it go away. That's the essence of the discussion. It still has meaning, it's still worth investigating, no matter how deep you get, no matter how many answers you get.

The only way out of it is to dictate that there's nothing behind anything.

That's not it at all and nobody cares about "destructive potential" of screen-emitted photons, though. The actual reasoning behind shift to lower wavelengths is that our circadian rhythms are entrained by ambient light, with "blue" light being assumed as indicative of daytime and "red" tones – of sunset (ergo, time to ramp up melatonin secretion and prepare to sleep).

Then why is the effort not to detect/reinitialize modifications to the BIOS or IME instead of this more complicated alternative?
That's a very impressive and tactile answer, thanks for taking the time to put it together.

This seems to tie into the old debate of top-down versus bottom-up pedagogies. A high-level map of a topic is indisputably valuable, but I personally find it most useful as a guide for where to dive deep and back out, to make concrete the abstractions; a more directed patching-together of competencies, as you put it.
