>And for desktop and phone purposes, search is popular because it works damn well.

It works well, until it doesn't. It's especially bad if you don't remember exactly what you're looking for; this is when a decent hierarchy is really useful. And yes, hierarchies have problems, which is why RDBMSs took over from the older hierarchical DBs which were used before that (such as on the Apollo program), but just throwing everything into a single directory and hoping file metadata and search will replace it all is wishful thinking.
The Brutal Mirror
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as FOSS, is in fact FLOSS, or as I've recently taken to calling it F/L/OS/S meaning “Free/Libre and Open Source Software”. Free is not free by itself, call if F/L/OS/S to explicitly avoid a preference between the two political camps. If you wish to be neutral, this is a good way to do it, since this makes the names of the two camps equally prominent.
There really is a F/L/OS software and there are people who use it, but it is just a part of the system they use, that in fact called GNU/Linux. Anyway Libre refers to freedom, instead of calling it open source you could also start to call this type of software Libre software. “Free and Open Source Software” is misleading since it can be interpreted as free as in beer when it is Free as in Freedom. Not calling it FLOSS is an obstacle to understanding GNU philosophy, free software and open source are different political positions that are completely not the same.

That's precisely the problem that Luminus [1] solves. It provides a batteries included template that follows best practices as well as documentation on how you would accomplish many common tasks. Making an app is quite straight forward, and all you need is Leiningen [2] and a JDK. For example, you could do:

lein new luminus myapp +postgres +auth +swagger

This will create an app using Postgres as the database with a Swagger UI set up out of the box.

During development mode you'd run the app with:

lein run

Any changes you make in the source will be automatically reflected when you reload the page. You can also connect the editor to the REPL that gets started on port 7000 by default.

You can package this app for production with:

lein uberjar

and you can run the resulting jar as:

java -jar -Dconf=config.edn myapp.jar

You really don't have to hand roll your app and go hunting for libraries unless that's something you want to do.

Ah, so now you're back, trying to tech me a lesson about anec-data with your own anec-data. Got any real data to support whatever claim you are trying to make, or are you just trying to come over and be right at me again? Again, comments like this, especially from mods, make the community more closed. Your pithy comment ends up making you look like a bully, not as a person trying to foster an open debate about the platform.

Like, did I come up on your tools, or do you just go and check my comments because I disagreed with you a few weeks ago? Are you so focused on proving me wrong and getting one up on me that you now follow my comment threads? Bit creepy for a mod, Daniel.

I don't believe it's a rude comment at all, given that:

1. Russia and Ukraine were the same country until 1991. The culture was exactly the same until that time. Until less than half a decade ago, Ukraine was led by a Russian puppet. Believing the culture is "different" is blatantly ignorant or deceitful, and it's unlikely the poster is the former.

2. Russia is stressing the difference between itself in Ukraine to rouse support for its take over of Crimea.

I was worried for this over the past few days (thanks, YC! ;) ), and reading the thread below see others are as well, but the main solid data I could find against the yield curve predictor (which the original article doesn't mention) is that it doesn't hold up in other countries:

https://www.marketwatch.com/story/an-inverted-yield-curve-is...

So, if you're a start-up in the U.S. and are worried about the yield curve, just move to Germany, where even though the yield curve is also now inverted there, the historic evidence shows no to weak prediction of a German recession due to an inverted German yield curve!

For me, when I looked up online and saw my symptoms were pretty much exactly temporal lobe seizures, I went to see a doctor at the Mayo Clinic (I'd tried a local one but I had to see a normal doctor first before a referral to a more specific one and that process was not the best) and the Mayo doctor did an EEG, MRI, and pointed at the tumor that was causing the seizures.

The medication is a huge problem, considering how many side effects there are and trying to find the right one is so difficult. I've very jealous that you were able to get off the meds.

These types of medical problems seem so random and crazy things can happen. I always wonder what it'd be like if we had these problems 50 years in the future when the knowledge of seizures and medicine has made much more progress.
I am not mistaken. Go look, the first ad for Yoga, click on the info icon and you will see:

“This ad ran without a disclaimer. After the ad started running, we determined that the ad was related to politics and issues of national importance and required the label. The ad was taken down.”

This is the same for many other yoga ads.

Yoga studios aren’t political orgs not are the issues of national importance.

It has to do with how wide your screen is. The responsiveness of this piss-poor design was clearly not thought out.

But neither was anything else in this design, apparently. There's a 300px square in the middle of the screen that the _entire_ article is contained in. Everything else is just bullshit "interactive" chrome that's totally useless.

But F35s generally fly with F22s which is in fact an air superiority fighter. The F35 is often a "gun truck" for targets the F22 finds and annotates.

In general, one of the things that sets the F22/F35 apart from most of the competition is their AESA phased array radar, which is allegedly the best in the world. It can find enemy aircraft long before they can find it. Also, it can allow the pilot to lock and fire missiles before the enemy is close enough to target it. The dogfighting days where men such as the Red Barron or Chuck Yaeger ruled the skies are pretty much done forever. Soon enough we'll have UCAVs which can do > 12G rolls and will win every single dogfight because turns that fast cause humans to simply lose consciousness.

The "struggles" of tech companies blocking the NZ video is not giving them enough credit. I only know about Facebook's 80% preemptively blocked rate but to be frank, that figure is impressive. A new video, with millions of not tens of millions of people posting it, editing it, cropping it, flipping the image and doing everything they can to avoid the filtering algorithms and Facebook still managed to preemptively block 80% of attempted uploads. To me, that's an impressive feat and a sign of just how much investment the company had made to block bad content.

Copyright filtering isn't a good example IMO. Lots of people consistently claim that the content ID algorithms are crappy and have high rates of false positives.

What's worse is, this is a crosswalk that people from the residential neighborhood on the far side of the street use if they want to walk their children to either of two preschools on the near side. They have to dodge oncoming traffic while carrying their toddlers across. That or drive, which, due to the configuration of the streets and the roundabout route they have to take, isn't any faster than walking.
Who said anything about microservices on the local network stack? You don't need to do that to separate the layers; just have them be separate logical layers in your application. This is common enough that I almost think we're talking about different things: people have written APIs and SSR apps for much, much longer than SPAs have been around.
> The other thing that killed them, as many have noted, was the lack of apps. ... What app developer wants to spend a lot of time and resources developing a 3rd version of their app for a new platform that no one is using yet?

Sure, there was a lack of apps; but it wasn't all because it was too late; Windows phone 7 wasn't _that_ late to the game, and there's value being the only app for X on a platform, even if it's the smallest platform. The problem was your windows 7 app didn't work right on 8, and you probably should rewrite it again for 8.1, and you definitely need to rewrite it for 'Universal' Windows Platform for 10, except that's a waste of time since 10 never got anywhere close to the number of users as 8.

If Microsoft hadn't effectively killed Windows Mobile 10 by merging the desktop and mobile teams during development, and ended up with a solid Windows Mobile 10 release at launch, they would have been able to continue as a third platform. Supporting WP 8 devices upgrading to 10 and continuing to release lower end devices on 10 would have helped get existing developers to update their apps for 10. Having a decent browser would have helped, but Microsoft was playing the 'pretend to be iOS' game too hard, and blocked browsers from the store until it was too late; Firefox wanted to release for WP, but Microsoft said no, and IE/Edge are IE/Edge.

Given all of the things Google is doing to try to rein in apps, like Doze and this storage api revocation; it would be nice to have an option that isn't iOS.

WP 8 may have been ugly, but it was functional, and had a dark mode _everywhere_. The better tiles were really useful for getting the right amount of information, and because they were a critical part of the UI design, most apps supported them, unlike launcher widgets which are pretty hit or miss. Number badges require you to go in and reset the count to zero or they don't provide a useful signal; seeing the last message lets you delay it to later.

I think you know this is not true. You don't take your hand off the wheel to flip the signal switch and if you do it's certainly not the safe effect as taking your hand off the handle bar of a bike.

> most software projects eventually reach a point where they have to be burned down and rebuilt (or simply deprecated in favor of a younger project)

Is it really that, or do new people just come along and rebuild the same thing again and again without firm understanding of the older thing?

One approach would be to call GNU tools very exceptional and marvel at them (keep in mind its origins as a clone of older Unix stuff), but perhaps it's more appropriate to ask tougher questions of people operating in this other modality, that you are calling normal expectations.
True, for the task shown. That for me is the rub. As an engineering problem I'm looking at it like "The robot cost $x, operating it costs $y, and setting it up to operate costs $z." So I want to make sure that the costs add up to (ideally) less than an operator or two.

Optimization is about what can you assume is "fixed" about the environment (and so not engineer a solution around it) and what must you consider "variable". Clearly fixed constraints are easier to engineer around, and if all of your pallets and racks were arranged similarly, then a robot you could move somewhere, have it extend its "base" to provide stability, and then run all day would be a win.

The other variable then is how often do I do this task from this space. Assuming setup and tear down of the robot takes some number of minutes/hours, those add as a cost to change tasks. If the robot is mobile and can move itself from task to task, that changes its economics as well.

So lets assume as an example, that there are six bays (loading docks) at the warehouse and each bay of the warehouse receives one truck a day which offloads up to 6 pallets that need to be transported on to the conveyor.

If all trucks arrive at the same time:

Six robots will efficiently unload them as soon as they arrive. (optimizing for truck parking time) At the expense of six robots.

One robot that can be packed up, moved, and unpacked, can work all bays at the cost of loading bays that cannot be reused until all previous bays have been unloaded. How long does that take? And how does it affect how many goods can be moved through the warehouse? (which is how money comes in)

Then there are trucks that arrive at different times. Same options but now you have idle robots (if you have six robots) which are waiting for a truck. Although you might be able to overlap robot movement with truck arrival to keep your bays reasonably busy.

At the outermost level of the problem (where the business people look at it), a warehouse is essentially a "switch" that moves goods from bulk carriers to more specific carriers. Each good moved through earns its percentage of the transport cost. Each good incurs a storage cost while sitting in the warehouse. Lots of metrics around how many times you can completely fill and empty the warehouse of goods vs the money you can get for transporting goods.

Bottom line is that reality (and logistics in particular) are pretty complicated and I expect there are times when a stationary arm would make more sense than a moving arm. However I consider the 'moving arm' to be the super class of 'arm' (to me it seems easier to turn an arm that can move on its own to one that is stationary, and much harder to give a stationary arm the ability to move.)
>the Windows Phone campaign was inexcusably mismanaged to such a degree that it seemed deliberate

From what I remember in the US, the phone stores just weren't interested in pushing them too much, for various reasons. That's not MS's fault.

Maybe you didn't think they were ugly, but a lot of people did. Aesthetics have never been MS's strong suit, nor has naming (their names are always horribly boring and unimaginative, unless they buy it, e.g. PowerPoint or Excel).

MS also had a bad reputation because everyone knew they made the OS on their home and/or work computer that crashed all the time. XP will still in use at that time, remember, and 95/98/Me weren't that far in the past at that point.

MS also has a bad history of abandoning their products. You mentioned Zune; right before that, they had "PlaysForSure", which didn't "play for sure" because they abandoned it and all those customers were screwed. On Windows Phone, people who bought the earlier versions were screwed because they were incompatible with the later versions. (IIRC, this was a big problem because the apps were incompatible between the versions, and this made the app store problem even worse.)
Rubio, a Republican, wants to decrease the power of employers by curtailing non-compete agreements?

>Updated browser: because this project is not a fork, it is kept updated with the latest Firefox version.

Exactly with mine. The first times I had these I don't remember them, but the people around me did. Where I'd just tell them to hold on before I could understand them again. Took until I was getting them daily where the hit of the seizure was enough to be noticeable.

Temporal lobe seizures are interesting too because for me, it was just the word issues. I had one while riding a bike when I still didn't know what was going on, and I kept going being actively confused, like I knew something odd was going on with the word / thinking part of my brain, but nothing at all physical.
Where in my comment did I say that YouTube doesn't have the right to ban content?

Nowhere. It always puzzles me why this response always crops up, even when I never even remotely try to claim that platforms have any legal obligation to host content.

I did claim that making their site have a partisan recommendation algorithm is not a good idea and may be bad for society. I have zero doubt that this is their right, but people and companies have the right to do plenty of things that aren't good for society. Saying that it's bad for society to implement a partisan recommendation algorithm is not at all the same thing as saying it is or should be illegal.

It's not just supply of new homes, but also existing homes. Inventory for sale at any given time in the bay area is really low. Things like Prop 13 give people a LOT of incentive to stay put and not leave (until they are ready to never come back).
