What I'd like to see is compiled JS with the equivalent of debug symbols; minified JS with source maps feels like a patchy solution at best, after all it's still JS which is represented and transferred as ASCII text; I feel like this could be accellerated by a lot.

I wouldn't mind common libraries (jquery, react, etc) to be shipped by browsers (lazy loaded), with signature verification in the browsers themselves. CDNs / single code locations sorta help by increasing the change of a browser cache hit, but that too seems like a workaround.
If the answer was yes, it wouldn’t be a question. In fact there’s a “law” stating the exact opposite: Betteridge's Law of Headlines.
In a turn based market your place in the queue is determined only by the price you bid. Everyone trades at the same price, except for those who bid too high/low, they don't trade.

These systems are already running in many markets, typically at a rate of one trade round per day, but using them is optional.
> It's only when there are "free" alternatives that people flock in droves to the "free" options.

People were happy to pay 10$ for something until there was the same thing for 5$ and theses peoples thus flock to the "5$" options. This is why we should stop the 5$ option because it hurt the 10$ one!

People that paid more, just did because they had no alternative to get that. In that amount, there was some that couldn't pay that and didn't, and maybe you don't know them, but they exist. The cheaper option still provide enough value, or else why would the one that paid more move to the cheaper one? It also allowed the one that couldn't afford the previous price, to afford it and get that value too.

It's even possible that it was in aggregate delivering more value in total when the people that wanted the 5$ options were paying 10$ for the one with more things in it, but is it ethically right to force them to pay 5$ more for something they don't care about? Isn't it one of the important point here in this discussion manipulating people to pay for something they didn't want?

> The existence of ads definitely stops that.

It thus doesn't stop that, it only show that people were forced to pay more for value they didn't care for.

The people that want more and can afford it are still there. Like you said, they are still happily paying for Bloomberg and WSJ.

Talking about that, I don't read theses newspaper, yet they are annoying me enough that I may pay for it one day just because I keep getting linked to their article on Hacker News. It's weird how the paying one is giving me worse experience than ads ever did in my case, but I still believe that option is needed.

"An apple a day keeps the doctor away" is a saying too, but it doesn't mean people are eating apples regularly. If anything, it means people are not doing it as much as someone thinks they should. It could easily be the case that we have such a saying because people don't regularly eat breakfast.

Indeed. That's just one of several dangers.

People seem to effectively conduct 7-10 day fasts regularly, but beyond that you should talk to a doctor/registered dietician and also take nutritional supplements (and exit the fast in a very gradual way, not feasting).

Don't fool yourself thinking that after few weeks or even months of dieting/fasting you've broken the addiction. That was my mistake the first time I began IF.. after 8 months I decided that eating normally for a few weeks will not change anything.. 10 months later I'm back at my pre-diet weight trying to restart the whole process again.

> Seeing that the latest iPhones you can get that hasn’t received a recent patch is the iPhone 4 from 2010

We already discussed this. iOS has a huge attack surface that can only be patched via system updates, which is horribly bad design and terrible for security.

> The other 2.7 billion Android users probably would care if they knew any better.

If those billions knew better, they would get an Android One or Pixel instead of an instead of an iOS or other Android device. We already established that there is only one set of devices that is good for security, and the vast majority of people, including you it seems, do not have them. It's not my problem to fix their security. I don't buy them myself.

> I have a Mac Mini from 2006 running Windows 7 that is still getting security updates and a Dell

In exactly the same way, updates work fine for those of us on properly updated Android devices, and Windows updates don't work for people with hardware that has poorly supported drivers. You didn't address my point. Also, you still haven't addressed why this matters.

> Linux is free open source software that anyone can use, no one pays Linus for using it, and Linus doesn’t have much of any criteria about how it’s used.

So exactly the same as Android.

And all of them have poorly updated userspace. There is no five year old Android phone that has poorly updated userspace. All of those are insecure except for the subset of Android devices that have properly updated base system.

I've never fasted for multiple days at a time, but I've been eating what most people would consider 1 meal a day for the past 10 years. Not that I set out to do this. It is what felt adequate naturally.

I think browsers are somewhat unique even among "large projects" for the sheer breadth of their codebases. Everything from networking to graphics to midi is somewhere in there, and they all have to provide a somewhat common interface. It just has to be complex, no matter how well the project is organized.

On a sidenote, firefox has fantastic build times (like 20-45 minutes cold), and the codebase is fairly well organized, so if you want to try contributing to a browser, that's probably the one to start with. Chromium has a much nicer source IMO, but cold build times can be as high as seven or eight hours.
It's in the interest of big corporations (like Google, Mozilla, and Microsoft) that making a browser is as complicated as possible so they face no competition.

This is something I've noticed as well. As both a client and as an IT troubleshooter, I try to be keenly aware of this distinction. When I'm at the doctor's office, I relay what I've observed, and try to refrain from any speculation of the cause. Likewise, when asked to fix a problem, I try to ignore the explanation the client is offering and focus solely on the observation.

I think it's very easy to get hung up on refuting or confirming the observer's explanation and ignore the observation. For as much as observations are worth, if someone says they saw a strange animal, I might believe them, if they said they saw Bigfoot, I wouldn't, but that's a very good moment to ask questions.

> However, if you had a turn-based market where every trade got cleared at the top of the minute it's not clear to me at all whether that would effectively be less liquid than what we have now.

The primary problem with that is that it pools order flow into a homogenous, undistinguished pool.

HFT heavily rely on profiling order flow into the informed and uninformed. A typical uninformed trader is Joe Sixpack who's rebalancing his 401k. A typical informed trader is a hotshot hedge fund manager, who's invested enormous resources in gaining an informational edge. If Joe's buying a stock that doesn't tell you anything about the value of the stock. If hotshot hedge fund manager is buying a stock, that in and of itself is a credible signal that the stock's worth more than you thought it was.

Liquidity providers love being the counterparts to Joe, and hate being on the other side of the hotshot hedge fund managers. The more you can profile the order flow, the better prices and more liquidity you can offer to Joe, by charging the hotshots more. Think of how life insurance companies can offer better premiums, particularly to the healthy, if they require a physical exam before underwriting a policy.

Even on a millisecond by millisecond basis, there's a ton of distinguishing characteristics regarding the informational content of order flow. Uninformed flow basically looks like a bunch of small, randomly spaced trades. Informed flow is more likely to cluster together in small time windows, move sequentially in the same direction, try to sweep liquidity with huge trades, and immediately follow similar moves in other securities among other things.

If you pool all orders into a homogenous one minute pool, HFTs would lose much of their ability to segment order flow. The end result would mean that the hotshot hedge fund manager would see his trading costs reduced, and Joe Sixpack would see his trading costs increase.

A standard restaurant must be located where people will walk in. It must be pleasant premises for customers.

If the target is to work only with Deliveroo or other delivery app then everything can be stripped apart from the kitchen and that kitchen can then be located where it's cheapest since no customers will ever walk in or even know where it is.

That's not a scam. That's an adaptation, an optimisation for a specific business model.

Oh interesting. I didn't realize it had slash commands either.

It's briefly mentioned under "View > Open Quickly" on https://www.iterm2.com/3.3/documentation-menu-items.html:

> If you have lots of sessions you can quickly find the one you're looking for with Open Quickly. Select the View > Open Quickly menu item (cmd-shift-O) and then enter a search query. You can search by tab title, command name, host name, user name, profile name, directory name, badge label, and more. Queries are scored according to relevance and sorted by score. Open Quickly also lets you create new tabs, change the current session's profile, open arrangements, and change the color preset. If you start your query with a / then that gives you a shortcut to various commands. /a followed by an arrangement name restores the arrangement. /f restricts the query to existing sessions, excluding options to open new tabs, etc. /p restrics the query to profile names to switch the current session to. /t restricts the results to "open new tab" for matching profile names. /c restricts the results to color presets.

I think with /s and creating custom scripts you could wire up some of these use cases.

Sadly, it's insanely common to have advanced degrees plagiarized. I worked as a high school teacher and the number of co-workers who phoned it in for advanced degrees just to get the pay increase was insane.

I can't think of one person who did it to actually learn anything.

The worst was a couple of "Doctors", who essentially bought their way to getting EdD's. It was just disgusting. Our admins and leaders CHEATING their way to getting advanced degrees and then expecting us to respect them as educators.

And they had the gall to make people call them "doctor". One of the many reasons why I quit working for them.

You already have a system, and it sounds like it's 'ask the bank how much money I have'. In the not too distant past, checking accounts came with a checkbook that included a register for you to track your expenses, but I guess humanity has declined.

Does the exercising during fasting cause you to feel hunger pangs more intensely?
That was much milder than expected, but not particularly surprising. I made this point recently in an unrelated thread; having taught academic skills classes at a research university and talking to many of my friends who didn't go to research universities, the one big problem is that people don't know what research entails. They don't know how to conduct it, how to express it, and (a fundamentally problematic one) why it's done.

This is partially a problem with unethical students who just want their degree or title, but that's just one part of it. There's a problem with research education. That's why we have students who are just dumbfounded at the effort needed to write research papers worth reading and studying.
I wish we would bring back manual renewals for copyright. I get that publishers thought it was a hassle to have to do the work for stuff they had not published in decades and had no intention of ever reprinting, but that's kind of the point isn't it? Why is the government locking away works that the original rightsholders no longer care about? The copyright system is supposed to serve the common good, what common good is there from locking away works simply because the original owner lost interest in them? Or worse, when nobody knows who or where the original owner is.
