That's an extremely difficult problem for browser makers to solve in a generic way: the state of client-side scripts might not lend itself to such a snapshot, and the browser has no way to account for changes that have been made server-side in the meantime (including new versions of the page content, scripts, stylesheets, API endpoints, etc.). Your proposal reminds me of Java object serialization, which I've rarely seen used in an effective way (and only when the code and runtime environment are tightly controlled).

Webpage makers already have the tools they need to do this: the page URI can be manipulated client-side to store state. And they can specify which content should be cached for use in the future without a trip to the server—including full client-side app functionality.

How about signing under protest? So you sign, but at the same time you signal that you're not OK with the situation. In the Netherlands this is often used if you don't agree with the amount you have to pay for something. When you sign under protest, you admit that you got the products or service you requested, but you are not satisfied with the quality or the price.
It's actually quite simple. Just follow each case of it being either:

1. if true, then "the battle is not fought on tomorrow's date" which is a truth for all time

2. if false, then "the battle is fought on tomorrow's date" and statements depending on it being true are invalid.

The fault in the line of proposed reasoning is the assumption of (1) and not admitting the possibility of (2) as a premise.

Facebook’s New Cryptocurrency, Libra, Gets Big Backers

Unfortunately, it's going to sell just because it's the big old facebook, your non-techy friend probably don't know the difference between crypto and food stamps all they know it's points for money, one is a boring piece of paper and the other is cool futuristic out of the matrix Bitcoin like super numbers
Interesting, thanks. I have virtually zero JS experience so didn't know that, and were I to try and pick it up this would've been a surprise to me - I naively assumed it would use the same terminology as the RFC and the libraries in languages with which I am familiar (rust, golang, python, perl). A quick look for the URI data type in a handful of other languages shows they also use "scheme". JS appears to be the outlier here.
How to spend your innovation tokens wisely

The most "fun" I've ever had was decoding command and telemetry from piece of equipment for a ground station. The box would spit out this massive frame of data. It was a very long ASCII string that you would turn into binary to break into 6bit BCD values (no clue why they didn't use 4bit...). There were random flags of odd bit lengths (sometimes just a single bit, sometimes 5bits) thrown in between numbers for arbitrary reasons rather than just having all the binary flags up front. My python script was this ugly mess of slicing up the frame to turn it all into a very nice struct I could pass to the rest of the system. The manual with this piece of hardware was some old scan that must have been xeroxed a million times over so some portions of the document were just unreadable and you had to guess what those bits did. Other parts of the frame were just undocumented. Commands were send one by one as single letter with the actual ASCII representation of the numerical command parameter.

When I started the project, I looked online to see if anyone had done any previous work on this thing. A vendor was selling a GUI for the thing for $2000, I scoffed at the price and started working it myself. By the time I was done, it had probably cost my employer more than that but at least we had our own code that could connect to whatever you wanted rather than a GUI with a no API.

I just watched my company embark on a 9 figure multi-year automation journey. For some reason, the powers that be thought it would be easier for our folks to figure out an RPA tool than write code — never mind with RPA you have to navigate 3 abstraction layers (the OS, browser DOM and the application itself) instead of just the application. The complexity RPA introduces for web apps kills any benefit it has. I can’t teach an accountant how the DOM works and why some fields have to be selected by an INPUT tag and others by a SPAN tag — they’re numbers geeks. They just don’t think visually.

What kills me here is that we use Google for e-mail and documents — and App Script is disabled. Sheets with App Script is one of those “unreasonably effective” tools because it basically allows business analysts to build and test business logic behind even complex web applications (Sheets has some extra data management functions that make it far more powerful than Excel). Or really anything else they want, but with a relatively easy path to converting that process step to a scalable API if that becomes necessary. Heck, I’ve been known to build working wireframes in Sheets — most business applications are glorified spreadsheets anyway.

Sure, this is reminiscent of the Access databases that proliferated across companies in the 90s — with the notable difference that Sheets doesn’t have the locking issues Access does and is performant outside a local LAN. Anyone who is going to be able to manage the complexity of an RPA tool is going to be able to figure out App Script. Sure, the quality of code they write will be crap but it’ll be a lot better than the output of an RPA SpaghettiWare tool. Versioning / inheritance are a lot easier to manage. And there are a wealth of existing libraries and connectors.

TLDR: code > spaghettiware; always. Any employee who doesn’t have the patience to learn to code will not have the patience to build and maintain reliable RPA automations. If you want to enable “citizen-led automation” (fka “shadow IT”) don’t buy expensive RPA tools — spend that money teaching your folks to code in a tool they’re already familiar with.
Probably the latter, although uplift happens, sometimes. And subsidence. The coast of Washington state rises over the course of (on average, 10ky window) 300 years, and suddenly drops 3-6 feet when the 9+ earthquake hits. The last one was 320 years ago. Most of the recent-ish ones were spaced closer to 500 years, but that is not predictive.

Ceej and company are trying to portray NPM as the villain here, but is the entire JS ecosystem's burden their's to carry? They keep whining that Roald Dahl is miserable and all despite inventing Node and why the NPM founder is so rich with VC money, etc. According to me, therein lies their hypocracy:

On one hand, you declare your altruism and how you care about commons and not money but on the other hand, you try to imply guilt on those who try to earn money out of JS ecosystem! How is this fair? You do your job and let them do theirs, I don't see how NPM is made the villain here?
Thank you! Much appreciated! What a happy coincidence that I speak German, too.

Neither, just silting up. The Tiber has been filling in that area with sediments for thousands of years. The harbour was just a tiny dent in that natural process.

> I'm still skeptical of your supposed two week 500 heights forecast from the ECMWF model.

You're probably right to be skeptical, for the record I was only a forecaster for a short period of time over ten years ago... didn't even serve my full four year commitment as I volunteered to get out under the Air Force "force shaping" at the time. I was stationed near Rammstein and we created forecasts for Europe. I was referring to the ECMWF ensemble products, specifically.
”by the middle of the 5th century AD, the outer harbour basin was silting up”

So, the Tiber deposited silt in front of the port. Reading https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portus, that isn’t surprising. It says:

”Claudius constructed the first harbour on the Portus site, 4 km (2.5 mi) north of Ostia, enclosing an area of 69 hectares (170 acres), with two long curving moles projecting into the sea, and an artificial island, bearing a lighthouse, in the centre of the space between them.”

Those constructs must have decreased water flow, allowing (more) silt to settle.

Yesterday, there was a discussion (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20174418) about most OSS being so underfinanced that the authors must be doing it because they are either very kind or very crazy.

I was reminded of the David Graeber's Bullshit Jobs, where he describes the testimony of a programmer, who is working on OSS in free time so that he could then cover it with duct tape during the day to make a living. That part of the essay just seemed very apt.

Here, another parts of that essay seem also apt, those about how useless jobs get created in a bureaucracy.

Is there something fundamental to these things, that we don't know how to deal with?

I think even Instagram is slowly but steadily decaying. The amount of "influencers" are getting annoying even to younger people. I believe soon only people who will remain are influencers influencing influencers, you can even see this in the comments of said posts.
The first tip-off that there's something funny going on is that it's temporal conditional and it's trying to run the cause and effect in reverse time. If something tomorrow, then something today and yesterday. And it then uses normal flow to say if something yesterday then today and for all following days.

It's basically self reinforcing saying if it's true then it's always true. The other unconsidered state is if it's false then it's always false.

i think you’re misunderstanding the important parts of the analogy (and as a result calling me a racist, which is ridiculous). i’m saying all people are on a continuum of genetic difference and that some groups are clumped together along the spectrum relative to some phenotypes and other groups are clumped together elsewhere on the spectrum relative to the same phenotypes - and that it’s easier to see differences between those groups relative to these phenotypes (an easier line to draw. say, average hair color between Pygmies and Swedes) and harder to see differences within those groups relative to the same phenotypes (harder line to draw. say, average hair color distribution within Pygmies).

tell me what is racist about that observation. at no point did i claim that certain of these clumps of phenotypic groupings are correlated with being stupid or inferior or better or worse (nor would I make that claim).

It seems a bit overkill to spin up a new worker per segment, especially if encountering I/O bottlenecks. Why not make sure to distribute multiple segments to multiple threads on the same (large-enough) worker so it can stitch them all together from the same machine?
I worked two maybe three years doing just this. Hired into a non-IT department, tasked with others to script/automate the in-house ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system. We were able to increase the productivity of the department, tasks taking two weeks turning to an hour or less. However, honestly it was a house of cards because the automation we created could fail when the IT department changed the ERP system significantly.
Yes, but by the time the system is implemented, the official whose pet project it was had moved on. The new official wants to channel resources to his own pet project, not making the old one work.
What is your dosage and form for the supplements you mentioned?
I recognized the author from another study where he claimed that he found a cure for atrial fibrillation. So I would take it with a grain of salt. Although there is obviously an effect of Magnesium on many important body functions, but the same is true for potassium or other minerals and amino acids. e.g. tryptophan against depression.

First I had toothache. After a while it occurred to me that this coincided with my stress level at work and that it actually was caused by my teeth grinding at night. And then I remembered how Mg helps me to become much more relaxed when under stress. Tried it and it worked.

I've never seen Mg Carbonate in a sport supplement but I usually look for the highest bio-availability and the least laxative effect. Hence, Bisglycinate is my best choice. Usually comes in pills and rarely also (expensive) in liquid shots w/ sweeteners.

Germany has a police union that sometimes makes public statements but overall they don’t seem to have much power.

I think the US is suffering from the disadvantages of decentralization. Local police forces have much more freedom and get away with a lot of stuff. The training is also very inconsistent and generally not sufficient.

Also the fact that sheriffs and judges get elected seems to have the opposite effect from the intended one. Instead of more accountability this seems to lead to less accountability and there is less professionalism.
Why supplement magnesium instead of getting it from dietary sources?

I'm not in the public sector, but I've seen this a lot in the enterprise world.

That is the problem with how organizations prioritize capex over opex in their budgeting. Most teams I've worked for can request a bigger capex budget for a project because it is "one time". Even though they ask for a bigger budget every year.

But asking for more annual opex is a harder sell on the bean counters, because the increase of operating expense of a department is seen as a permanent thing. It only goes up, never down, so lets just not give them money for it.
I am trying to understand why we make NPM such a big deal (and suddenly have all these projects born to solve the NPM problem) when people have solve the issue of a package repository already. C j Silverio's point (JSConf's talk [1]) was that is NPM's scale that makes it hard.

> accessible tools that don't have...the psychological/emotional barriers actual coding has for lots of people

I don't think I've ever seen this expressed before; that is, people (in general) having "psychological/emotional barriers" to "actual coding"?

Do you have any links or other references to this; studies, documents, heck - even a general audience article? It would all be interesting to read about. I've seen people struggle with learning (and often giving up) "coding" and "software development", and I am interested in what these barriers may be, etc - and what ways around them, or lessening them, there are.

I've run into this topic tangentially when it comes to children's education (particularly Papert's Mindstorms seems to touch on the issue), but it would be interesting to understand it more when it comes to older individuals.

I can only attest to my experience in prison. I never heard of a sex offender being killed in one of the several state prisons I was at.

In the two federal prisons, there was one guy murdered, but it was because he was stupid. When he arrived, he fell in with the Aryan Brotherhood gang, a white supremacist group. Pretended to be a drug dealer. When the law library stumbled upon his case and discovered he had run a child prostitution house inside Mexico, the AB's had to do him in to save face.

The only people in prison who get hurt are the ones who deserve it. You might say, well, that guy is in for that heinous crime, but as long as the guy is respectful and doesn't overstep social boundaries he'll get along fine in federal prison.
