I think there are a lot of benefits to a web app here including:

- Cross-platform support
- Collaboration and sharing, especially with unregistered users
- Speed to get off the ground as a new user
- Automatic updates for fixes + features
- Integrated live support
- Great open-source community

The largest downside for me is less robust offline support, but that's improving. I'd be curious what the most important missing pieces are for you. Would love to minimize those downsides!

> If the whole point of doing the deploy is to pick up new code changes, then the people responsible for doing those code changes run the risk of having to work over the weekend to make sure they're ready.

I feel like you're conflating deadlines with deploys. If its ready to go on a Monday then I see no reason why you should hold off doing the deploy. If you have to work all weekend to get it ready to go by Monday then its probably because there's a deadline.
Speaking of parking, I think a lot of the need for street parking would go away if underground parking became more ubiquitous (and less expensive relative to street parking). Make street parking (if it exists at all) for loading/unloading only (maybe max 5 minutes), and basically build the city atop a bunch of underground parking structures.

Obviously this wouldn't be easy to pull off for existing buildings, but for new construction it'd make life a lot easier for everyone (drivers have an easier time parking, pedestrians/cyclists have more room for dedicated sidewalks and bicycle lanes, etc.).
Most randomly selected people could make better policy than politicians. Politicians don’t make bad policy because they are stupid, they do it because it serves their interest in some way.

It's also worth noting that those "few hundred dollars" represent about half of an average monthly salary for people in those countries.... so, the real cost of getting a visa for people in those countries is much higher in the end.
Some establishments lie. I've had a cynical attitude in the past. But then, I've had enough places actually come back to me with a correction about their menu that they could have gotten away with not making, or checked on something that I didn't even think to check on, that I have faith that people aren't total scum out there. Parties though? If people disrespect me like that at a party, those are not people I ever want to party with.

I'm only going to go so far to verify. I accept the risk, and at a certain point the blame is on them for lying to me.
I doubt if there's a strong market for VR even if a great headset was $50. Do people who are not enthusiasts really want to immerse themselves like this? A good chunk of the population doesn't seem interested even in game consoles. I imagine a subset of them are interested in VR gaming. Outside of VR gaming, there's little mainstream content designed for VR.

Ok, since that's a heading from the article itself, we'll use it for the title above.
I just saw a clip from one of those scared straight shows last night and this was my first thought. These kids are going to hit 18 and sue the everlasting hell out of anyone who had anything to do with this. Leaving aside the questionable effectiveness of those programs to begin with, all I could think was how can a parent allow their kid to be put on tv and abused in such a vulnerable position no matter how bad they are.

I think it's the same for these kids who have been posted on social media by their parents. Kids get their lives ruined by this type of stuff. The internet has a long memory, and these children are in no way capable of consenting. Yeah it's not Cash Me Outside girl bad but you're still potentially putting still maturing children on display to be potentially mocked by random internet mobs. Forever.

My experience differs from yours. I find the lightning port to be considerably robust. I drop my AirPods case fairly regularly and keep it in my jean pocket on work days (though I find myself not using them all too much). I charge my pods maybe once a week and don't have battery life problems. If the AirPods were only chargeable inductively, they would (presumably) take considerably longer to charge and thus impact my experience.

"I know it is a hard to sell "figure", but I wish Apple could find a way to market this"

Blackberry did that with the Playbook pitting it against iPads. They showed it was more responsive by having a video game, a browser, and other stuff running with no lag. Apple could similarly highlight faster response time.
You'd be absolutely right but it's still a sad state of affairs.
I worked in a VR lab at my university for a year before graduating so I got to experiment with a bunch of the current headsets (no Rift S though since it was just announced obviously).

My personal take away is if you are going for the maximum immersion, have space and the money, go with the Vive or Vive Pro. The Rift (likely applies to Rift S as well since they are so similar) was more comfortable than the Vive for me at least and I liked the controllers more but the tracking quality was not as solid especially in even medium sized rooms. The visual quality on the Oculus is not quite where the Vive is either. Additionally the Vive is a pretty open platform so there are lots of third party accessories you can play with (once again if you can stomach the costs). I love using Vive trackers on my feet to track my foot motion so I could run in place in games to move. That kind of ecosystem doesn’t exist for Oculus. Additionally Valve will likely release new controllers soon with full finger tracking (and then you could use your old controllers as Vive trackers)
A significant portion of people (most maybe?) who are interested in this would like to see the specs and not some Apple inspired dumbed down web page with little actual substance about the product. Even apple gives you prominent access to tech specs. This page tries to get your email address three times. Very poor.

Tracking is a joke with the Rift v1 (consumer version). Decent for a few hours and then randomly everything gets all screwed up, requiring a tracking reset which sometimes doesn’t even fix the issue. It’s way too involved to set up, and even following the instructions it takes sometimes 20 minutes to finally get the tracking sensors synced with the controllers and your System. I found that really frustrating and made it prohibitive for anything other than killing time. Furthermore, for some reason it always makes me set it up from scratch even if I haven’t unplugged the three different USBs (2x tracking, and one for the headset) needed to get the whole thing operational since the last use.

Echo VR is super super fun to play, as one concrete example, but I’d say the Rift is still not good enough other than as a toy to show off to people. The driver updates are also absurdly huge. I didn’t use it for a month and I had a 14gb driver download (pretty sure it wasn’t any game/app updates)

We are far away from VR being even in the comparable to general purpose “everyday” computing IMO.

I once watched a talk by someone running a startup creating artificial cheese and it sounded like the FDA was very interested in what they're doing and they hat a close look on the safety. You can expect that this stuff won't go into supermarkets without some testing.

The comparison to smoking is a poor one, because this was in another era with a lot less developed scientific methods. The comparison to medicine is closer, but you're looking more to something like testing generics. If you have lab-grown meat that's chemically almost identical then the concerns are much smaller.
This is now mostly fixed with "gopls". It's using go/packages under the hood which is both GOPATH and Go modules aware. gopls has also caching inbuilt, both code completion and jump to definition works very well.

If you're using vim-go, HEAD has now gopls support. I believe vscode also added recently support for gopls.

Other than, I agree that it broke all other tools, but most of them are migrated to use the go/packages package so it'll be better going forward.
As much as I want to believe it's a good thing for a kid to be away from social media, there doesn't seems to be any compelling argument for it in that article.

It seems like fear is her only justification, which to me if anything, is the worse reason to do anything. Being aware of the risk and mitigating it when necessary is the right way to do it, instead of simply letting fear control us. The strange thing is that she seems to be aware of that risk and did use methods to mitigate it.

Her lack of social media doesn't seems to affect her though, so I guess it's alright in her case. I know personally though that my group of friend and I had ton of trouble to include people without social media in any event organization, and the increased friction slowly pushed many of the ones without it away (while the solution, which did work for some, was simply a fully anonymous account, though I think Facebook now ban theses accounts).
> Remember the Gall-Mann amnesia effect: expert believing news articles on topics outside of their field of expertise even after acknowledging that articles written in the same publication that are within the expert's field of expertise are error-ridden and full of misunderstanding

This trope is tired and very annoying each time I see it come up.

I'm an expert in Programming Computers (at least, that's my job, so I assume I'm an expert). So I laugh at WashPo or New York Times, or Bloomberg whenever they make simple computer-related errors in their article.

But guess what? I'm not paying Wash Po for my computer news. I'm paying ACM or IEEE actually for computer news. But ACM / IEEE have no news on financial markets. (Bloomberg is an expert newspaper in the realm of finance).

ACM / IEEE don't have many articles on politics. Washington Post is far better at describing the daily political issues in the capital.

Al Jazeera gets American news incredibly wrong sometimes. But I'll trust Al Jazeera on middle-eastern news over almost any American-based paper (aside from Wash. Po, which has a solid foreign politics / world politics section).

Throw in a few "Conservative" newspapers for the conservative slant on issues, and you can get a decent balance of news from a variety of sources.

I don't expect general Newspapers to be an expert in my field. I read newspapers to learn about things OUTSIDE of my realm of expertise. Believe it or not, newspapers have "specialties", and they're quite good if you read them based on what they're actually an expert in.

-------

Honestly, I don't read too much NY Times, so I dunno what they're an expert in. Financial news is definitely a Bloomberg thing IMO.
The copilot actually suggested to use the airbrakes at one point.

Neither Bonin nor Robert, nor the third crew member (Marc
Dubois, the captain) who entered the cockpit 90 seconds
into the episode, recognized that the aircraft had stalled
despite multiple cues. In the confusion, Bonin
misinterpreted the situation as meaning that the plane was
flying too fast and actually reduced the thrust and moved
to apply the speedbrakes – the opposite of what was
required to recover from the stall. Robert overruled him
and attempted to take control, but Bonin continued to try
and fly the plane. He and Robert made simultaneous and
contradictory inputs, without realizing that they were
doing so. By the time the crew worked out what was going
on, there was insufficient altitude left to recover, and
AF447 crashed into the ocean, with the loss of all 228
passengers and crew.

But I've had the stick back the whole time!

At last, Bonin tells the others the crucial fact whose
import he has so grievously failed to understand himself.

I have the PSVR headset, that works with PlayStation 4. It really amazed me how good it looks and how real some experience feels (read some reviews about Resident Evil 7, for example, I didn't dare to try it). For example, I notice it that it is so good, that my dad (60 years old), who never played any console (because he is not a gaming person), played several games with the headset. It is also a different type of entertainment.

At the same time, it makes you feel tired. Not only your eyes / mind, but your body. So I don't play that much, but that's the only reason - you need to be in a special mood to play, and you can't play for one hour, at least not without some rest.

But I enjoy it a lot, and with my girlfriend we often joke it was the best purchase we ever made.

Organs are even harder because it isn't just speed of sound. There is often mechanical delay before the pipe even gets the air after the key is pressed. In some organs the pipes are "slow" to speak meaning that rank of pipes won't make a sound for some time after the air arrives. Skilled pipe manufactures can minimize this (called voicing, though voicing covers other areas of pipe fine tuning), but in some cases that involves other compromises that aren't desired.

Organs have gotten better and worse in this regard several times over the hundreds of years since they have been known.
Just for the record, I was not questioning the veracity of the story.

Lots of weird things happen in the privacy of home. Children are especially vulnerable to having a fast one pulled on them.

Trains in Norway (and, presumably, also elsewhere) run on 16 2/3Hz AC.

This is a historical artifact - back in the day, electrical motors didn't fare too well if fed with 50hz, so a lower frequency was desirable.

In airplanes, on the other hand, AC supply is typically 400Hz - as higher frequency equates a smaller, lighter transformer for a given throughput.
> I agree, but is there a way that could happen without slowing the process to a crawl?

I don't see why a more rigorous release process would slow progress down at all. All the iterations that lead to progress should be done on test vehicles, not customer vehicles.

"Move fast and break things" is a development model that should only be applied to low-importance, low-risk systems. Most software development work occurs on such systems, and I think that narrows the perspective of the software development community as a whole.
> but then we wouldn't have nice things like Asynchronous Timewarp / Spacewarp unless we want to shift the burden of doing that onto the rendering application.

Or onto common libraries and frameworks. And I can live without such features until then; if I don't use the SDK and I miss a feature that's in the SDK, that's on me.

Video Games as Scientism's Totem
It's not so much that Christianity is the source of justice, hard work, and loving children as that Christianity claims to be the source of these things.

And, since Christianity is inextricable from European imperialism, those "values" were used to claim moral superiority to other cultures, in order to justify the pillage. Because other cultures clearly don't care about justice or work or children, right? Right.

Your inversion can itself be inverted. The success of Christianity is arguably derived from European political power - first the Romans, and then the colonialist explosion across the globe that started with Spain in the New World (closely followed by England, Holland, and France), which was a result of technological advantages, not moral ones. Without colonialism, Christianity would be merely an also-ran religion confined to a European backwater.
This is pretty much my list. I'll second the salary point in particular - if I can't get the salary range from you, I'll get it from Glassdoor, and if I can't get it from either you or Glassdoor, I probably won't apply. One other point I'll expand on a bit:

> List requirements but be open-minded. An experienced-enough engineer can learn a lot very quickly.

Be thoughtful and explicit about which requirements are firm and which aren't. I think of a firm requirement as one for which any resumes lacking it are automatically thrown in the trash, full stop. Or, equivalently, any requirement for which you can say f'I wouldn't hire {best_hacker_you_know} for this position if they didn't have {requirement}.' With this in mind, it may be reasonable to have 0 firm requirements for a position if you trust your interview process, and it's probably suboptimal to have more than a handful of them.

Assume that there are good candidates who will treat every requirement as a firm one unless you explicitly state otherwise, and who will only apply if they meet all of them. Because there are. Chances are, you don't want to miss out on good candidates who know most of your stack like the back of their hand but decide not to apply because you "require" MySQL experience and they only know Postgres.
That's what I find so interesting with Tesla owner. They spend a fortune on a car, then they minimize every single issue they have with the car. My explanation for this is that for a lot of owners, the car is a way to be part of a hyped group more than being a utilitarian object (what a car should be).
>They clearly want to push their more casual all-in-one headsets and don't care much about the enthusiasts and gamers that helped get Oculus off the ground in the first place.

I'm a little surprised they have taken this route. Especially with someone like John Carmack for a CTO.

2) Your employees are reasonable, and won't try to maliciously bypass security controls

Corollary: unless those controls impede their ability to do their jobs. This goes into a bit of UX design thinking, where you have structure your security controls to be minimally invasive or invisible, if not complementary to the business' operations.

>That's all this is. And for 95% of corporate applications, that's good enough. If you have high-level executive crime, or a scandal where you killed a few people, this won't help, of course. But if you'd like to keep an upcoming merger confidential, or maintain a trade secret, or anything vaguely normal, this is more than good enough.

Kind of. Partly you only get there by having a company culture where people value this sort of thing. Company cultures where everyone is out for themselves are likely to see worse compliance. But a company like Apple, which is famously secretive, are likely to do better. On the other hand, even Apple employees screw up in some pretty boneheaded ways, like that time a dude left a prototype iPhone in a bar that would up getting sold to Gizmodo.

I own a Vive. Haven't used it in six months. The technology is amazing. Some of the games are fun. I think content is holding it back more than hardware. Unfortunately with such a small install base, the market isn't there to really drive investment in great titles. I think one of the biggest benefits of VR is the social aspect - default on microphones and body language do a lot.
Why would any of that be relevant?
