But you can't build a pop-up if you don't have access to create new windows, yet you can still be turing complete. For example, WASM is Turing complete, but it can't create popup windows because it has no access to the DOM.

I think JavaScript should have to request access to use browser APIs, and you should be able to disable access to any of all of them. For example, I should be about to disable:

- network access (disables adding script tags, XMLHttpRequest, fetch)
- 2d canvas access
- 3d canvas access
- WASM

And so on, just like mobile apps, but perhaps more granular. The app should also be able to put a note as to why it needs each specific feature.

Did anyone ever investigate what benefits ads have to a population? It seems like a net loss to me, because ads are used to make people consume more than they need; ads make people buy the product with the biggest advertising budget instead of the best product; and while ads may make the internet "free", we are still paying for those ads indirectly.

Why then, doesn't the government bring advertising to a halt? At least they could start with targeted advertising as seen on the internet.

(Of course, if you measure the success of an economy by the GDP, then it might seem that ads have a positive influence, but that seems a bit like a broken-window fallacy to me).

I’m a marketer and we help our clients with a few trade shows a year.

If you are going to have a booth, table cloth, marketing materials (flyers, brochure, etc) you cost will be more than then the $1,500 for the space. Depending on the type of show many will also charge you for WiFi and power. Even on the low spend side, I’d anticipate spending $3k plus your food, lodging and travel costs.

Upside is many shows will provide you with the whole list of attendees which while aren’t leads - can be useful for future outreach without hunting down names/emails on your own.

Like others mentioned if it’s not a lot of money, then go and get feedback about the pain your product is solving. In addition to that, you can meet other vendors who can be good referral and industry connections if you don’t have that yet.

My experience: I have built a failed product that no one needed before and it was an expensive (couple million) and long exercise (2 yrs) in futility that would have been helped by getting face to face with our target audience earlier, not later.

From the article:

> Many nearby countries, like France and Germany, had systematized surnames generations earlier

Which isn't actually true: Prussia (and after German Unification, Germany) instituted a wave of fixed family names in the 19th century. As the names were recorded by officials, they often ended up being changed/assigned by same officials (as also happened at Ellis Island in the USA). In the Prussian case you can see it directly in the case of names assigned to jewish families, which often played to stereotypes (Goldschmidt "goldsmith") or mocked the recipient (Fischbaum "fish tree").

Turkey performed this process after the revolution in the 1920s; I read that Atatürk chose his as "Father/Sire/Source of the Turks"

The field of naming is called Onomastics.

That's essentially what their physical is. Now I'm thinking a "real" physical might involve more diagnostics?

> Lindsay suspected his body was producing too much adrenaline. He knew of a drug called Levophed, which is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration to raise blood pressure in some critically ill patients. Levophed is basically an injection of noradrenaline, which counters the symptoms created by excess adrenaline.

This is incorrect. norADRENALINE is a more specific version of ADRENALINE made in different parts of the body (and which also acts as a neurotransmitter). outside of nerves, noradrenaline acts on alpha receptors which among other things constrict blood vessels to raise blood pressure (it is used for this in critically ill patients). adrenaline acts on the same alpha receptors, but also targets beta-receptors which have the effect of speeding up and increasing the strength of contractions in the heart (also used in critically ill patients with low blood pressures and whose hearts aren't pumping enough). Epinephrine is another word for adrenaline.

> As Lindsay delved into more medical literature, he found only 32 recorded cases of bilateral adrenal medullary hyperplasia.

I don't have numbers to counter this off the top of my head, but congenital adrenal hyperplasia is a rare syndrome, but still common enough that it is taught to every medical student and tested on our boards repeatedly.

obviously, im somewhat skeptical, but i guess that plays into his hands since I'm part of the 'establishment'. Hard to know without more medical details, which are glaringly missing from any stories I can find about him...
Coming from a perspective of the IT consulting world, CRUD apps are rarely that simple.

The core is always the same, sure - you're basically wrapping read and write transactions to a storage subsystem in a pretty veneer. The complexity is never in the CRUD actions themselves. But transforming the things that have been R-ed so we can U them or identifying the full population of things to be D-ed is often non-trivial and deeply tied into understanding of the business domain and process at hand.

Often (analytics and reporting lenses on here), the complexity is in modeling the data appropriately and the logic of transformation. The work of presenting this stuff to a user is basically trivial arithmetic.
Apple is playing fairly dangerous game, positioning themselves as some kind of saint, or tron, fighting for the user.

Firing shots at all tech companies for collecting data can backfire at them. Like it does in this case. It shows that they’re likely overselling what they can do without your data, and to deliver they your data anyway - they just try to be quiet about it.

Of course there are different level of data collection, and I’m not making a call if what Apple is doing here is bad. But they have spent last few years building narrative that any data is bad, as it allowed them to differentiate themselves.

They built their marketing around it in last few years. But it’s likely that they won’t be able to deliver on it. With AI being hot and constantly needing more data to improve it, Apple needs to get this data somehow, and their narrative makes it hard, unless they’re willing to mislead their customers.

I'm amazed at how upset some commenters are about a blog post that did a toy experiment and didn't actually make any strong claims.

I'm actually a stickler about good benchmarks - it riles me when people draw sweeping conclusions from poorly-designed experiments. Lemire is actually one of the good ones. If you want something more fully developed than a blog post, read one of his papers.

I personally really enjoy his blog because of this - he's good at picking interesting exploratory experiments that provide some insight, without trying to over-generalize from the results. If you read his conclusion, the point is that there is a good probability that even relatively simple programs are CPU-bound. His experiment supports that point. My experience also matches that - I've seen a lot of data processing code that could be I/O bound in theory (i.e. a perfect implementation could max out CPU or network) but is CPU bound in practice. Usually because of string manipulation, regexes, or any number of other things.

> This is not the best that Java can do: Java can ingest data much faster. However, my results suggest that on modern systems, Java file parsing might be frequently processor-bound, as opposed to system bound. That is, you can buy much better disks and network cards, and your system won’t go any faster. Unless, of course, you have really good Java engineers.

Yes, it is over-engineering in a sense that you can start a blog using any number of free hosted platforms, or install an existing blogging platform onto your own host.

BUT! If you already have a data-source, you should check out GatsbyJS or VuePress -- these are static site generators which allow you to create a single-page experience while also providing fallback for browsers with compatibility issues.

(Even without a datasource, both of these frameworks are a great starting point for building out prototypes, landing pages, and simple websites.)

I've spent the last 15 years convincing my doctors, friends, and family that my physical symptoms are not just a manifestation from mental illness. It took me pushing myself to the point where I could no longer stand up. My legs felt like they were being ripped to pieces when I put weight on them.

I had attempted all the psychiatric treatments recommended to me. None of them ameliorated the physical symptoms.

Then I discovered what physical compounds my body was missing, and the physical symptoms AND mental symptoms resolved. So yes, the mind and body are not separate. They are constructed out of the exact same basic building blocks.
The obvious solution is build more housing.

> I read that Atatürk chose his as "Father/Sire/Source of the Turks"

>'Why then, doesn't the government bring advertising to a halt? At least they could start with targeted advertising as seen on the internet.'

Interesting idea. I just read that over £20bn is spent a year on advertising in the UK. The problem is that things which are socially valuable - especially journalism, but also a lot of entertainment - are chronically dependent on advertising revenues.

Netflix is an interesting example of a new model of entertainment that generates revenues through subscriptions instead of advertisements. Lots of newspapers have also shifted to a subscription-based model, though only The Guardian has done so without placing their website behind a paywall. Another alternative is public service broadcasting, like the BBC.

Yes, it's still important and I agree we should diversify our economy away from agriculture, but that is not something you can just do immediately especially when the citizens that industry is supporting are under-supported by both the community and the U.S. government as a whole.

I will not blame people immigrating to the U.S. for relying on one of the only jobs they can get to put food on their tables while our government actively tries to persecute and deport them, and our citizens inactively support them. These people need our agricultural industry to live, and until we give them a replacement somehow we are SOL.
