If you make many web pages that do not require JavaScript, CSS, and many images or videos, then that also improves the speed, and is better for accessibility.

For other cases you do need some scripts and stuff, I have suggested a "widget" attribute nd <widget> element. Both <script> and <widget> elements support the widget attribute. If recognized by the browser and enabled by the user, then the element and its contents are replaced by something implementation-dependent (and not necessarily representable in normal HTML). Otherwise, a <widget> element acts like <span>. This also improves speed, as it can skip loading a script if it has its own version, and possibly also use a native code version specific to the browser or an extension. It also allows better user customization, for example if a special text editing widget is used on the web page (rather than a normal <textbox>), then it can be replaced with one that has vi or emacs key bindings, or to implement it without animations if the user wants to implement that script without animations.

The other alternative, for stuff that doesn't need HTML and HTTP, is to use Gopher. Then, no need to consider what kind of user interface is used and any other kind of accessibility; it already is!
Credit Fix
I had credit scores of 504(transunion) 511(Equifax) in January. I applied for loan in March when I desperately needed to get a house for my wife and kids but was not approved because of my low FICO scores. Out of desperation i started looking for help and I came across a post about a professional hacker called COMPUTER WAREHOUSE GROUP I was so nervous at first thinking they would take money and disappear on me but at the same time i really needed help so I gave them a shot. They magically boosted my FICO score to 760 within 48 hours across all 3 credit bureaus and I was approved for the loan within a week. I still have my scores high because it is a permanent hack. I am so happy and thankful to them and i will recommend ONLY them to anyone in need of such services. CONTACT; computerwarehousegroup1@gmail.com +1 912 388 313.

I think it's fair to say that, as far as commercially available consumer computer displays are concerned (and thus anything relevant to anyone viewing the OP website), we are indeed display-bound.
The hardest part of working with really smart people is that they can rationalize pretty much anything. Worse still, if they have been on the project for years and you’re the new guy, you’re working from a deficit of knowledge and they’ve had plenty of time to cook up a “coherent but wrong” model of the universe. The only thing that saves a group like that is humility. Trying to see the system through the eyes of the new person helps loads. I call people out for complaining about “having to” train a new guy. It’s “getting to”, man. Take advantage of the opportunity.

The first time I worked with a stable group where everyone was a smart as me, even the old new guy with a massive inferiority complex who managed to sneak one really profound comment into every meeting, there was a lack of humility on everybody’s part and things did not go well. Planning meetings were exhausting because you could get them to bash their own old work but couldn’t get them to admit to needing to change process at all. I should have quit, but I had a string of experiences with persistence paying off and I had not been beaten yet. That was the first time, and my current employer the second (I should probably quit here, too).

Cognitive dissonance is at its absolute worst in the head of a scary-smart person.

US Business Formation Statistics (2018)
The real problem is that it's a competitive environment. Women understandably want the ability to work -- even if you're married and have kids, picking up a shift at a diner here and there can help get your kids into a better school district.

Until everybody does it. Then you need that shift just to be able to afford to live where you would have without it, and to be in the better school district you need a full time job as a second income. Then everybody does that and we have the two income trap, and the option to just be a stay at home parent evaporates because the other families have two incomes and you're bidding against them for positional goods.

And it's no answer to ask each parent to work half as much and then split the child rearing duties, because that's still an economic disadvantage relative to the family where both parents work full time. It's even worse than having one full time worker and one full time parent, because one full time job pays more than two half time jobs due to the reduced training costs and other administrative overhead.

So instead it creates the requirement that women become full time workers in addition to full time parents, only to have the same quality of life and economic stability they used to have as stay at home parents. And we see fertility rates and female happiness on the decline since the 1970s.

A possible solution might be to fight against scarcity in existing positional goods. So make housing costs low enough that anyone can afford to own a home even with one income or two part time incomes (and build lots more homes to make that possible), untie school quality from housing and let people send their kids to any school they want to as long as they can get the kids there, etc. Another (complementary) option is to increase support for families with children, e.g. bigger child tax deductions/credits. But we clearly need to do something -- we shouldn't just pretend it isn't happening because it's politically inconvenient.

If a payment mechanism existed for free transactions of any amount, paid for by normal American taxes, that would revolutionize digital payments.

Those are all shaping (and bidi) issues though, independent from encoding. UCS-4 is a single Unicode code point and the simplest encoding. Shaping may combine code points many to one, one to many, have ordering issues, etc. I think it is important for people to understand how shaping works and the code point/glyph distinction. Trying to duplicate the effort of the shaper when processing strings UCS-4 is going to lead to a world of hurt. Even English text with strings like "1/4" and ligatures in the font may display as a single glyph (that's font specific shaping, not encoding).

I've heard more than one person tell me they don't need to worry about text shaping since they are using UTF-8. (That statement doesn't make any sense) There is a lot of confusion with Unicode text rendering stack.

I am sometimes amazed by our industry. Somebody comes up with a solution to a problem and then someone else starts applying it before they even have a problem. Sometimes people ignore what mistakes/challenges others have dealt with and win/lose their own battles. So many times, people just say X does/uses it as some kind of validation or guidance. Well, if your business is also like X, great, you are learning from other people doing the same thing. Otherwise why are you looking at X and not "your" challenges, resources and opportunities?

There is just too much religion here :)

If you need it use it, if it works, great, if it doesn't or you don't need it, move on. The only advice I would give to people is that there is no rule book or the good way. Use your brain and pick up things that work.

I think first off yes I do have a narrower definition of feature toggles; if you are using a configuration file to perform arbitrary swapping of code modules in and out I would argue you've turned feature toggles into a synonym for a dependency injection framework, especially if you're allowing for two implementations to run at the same time (e.g. and then compare their results for correctness otherwise fail with an assert).

But arguing over definitions is not particularly enlightening or fun, so let's take feature toggles in their full generality as DI frameworks.

I still don't think that's what Carmack is advocating for.

Indeed Carmack specifically calls out:

Code fearlessly on the copy, while the original remains fully functional and unmolested. It is often tempting to shortcut this by passing in some kind of option flag to existing code, rather than enabling a full parallel implementation. It is a grey area, but I have been tending to find the extra path complexity with the flag approach often leads to messing up both versions as you work, and you usually compromise both implementations to some degree.

Now Carmack isn't talking about feature flags quite in the same way you are (I think the short cut he's talking about here is not doing a full re-implementation and interleaving parts of the old code with new code at runtime).

Nonetheless in one important way he is talking about feature flags in the more general case, which is that his approach should lead to ideally no change to your original codebase (the only exception he lists is if your original code relies heavily on global state). This is not true for feature flags (or DI). You need to write new code just to support it. Indeed your link calls this out as the "carrying cost" of feature flags because of the additional "abstractions or conditional logic" they require.

Hence feature flags are not the AAA form of what Carmack is talking about here (although they are one choice of implementation for the particular functionality Carmack is getting at if not necessarily his philosophy of do no violence to the original code). There are several other candidates, but the one I personally gravitate towards is hot code reloading. You write your separate code, then hot swap it in. And hot swap back your old code as necessary (either for educational purposes or for testing purposes). You don't need to decide up-front which parts of your code need to be designed around feature flags; it's all hot-swappable. You don't need to write extra logic to enable feature flags, the hot-swapping makes it all come for free. You don't need even need to shut down your process and restart it to read a new configuration!

I develop and maintain an app using the serverless framework. I have set up db, API gateway, functions, queues and custom domains through it and love how easy it is to get going but also how powerful the framework has shown to be in terms of configuring the underlying services.

With that in mind - you already have a system that is highly configurable and easy to figure out - I really have a hard time figuring out what the purpose of Serverless Components is - is it mainly the sharing Components part?

Fine, guys. It's your money...

Google does refactoring, but you’re expected to sell the idea, plan its roll out, and measure its impact... and then bring the codebase into a consistent state. I would rather things be consistently “wrong” than inconsistently right.

You can assign work to teams to complete, but you must drive the effort and gain buy in. Otherwise it’s not actually worth refactoring.
I’ve worked around the ad ecosystem for a long time as a media buying agency, then an ad network, then a publisher. I think this article is spot on. Few understand the iron grasp Google has on the ecosystem. Soon they are changing the model to allow for fair competition, but thus far Google AdX has had a massive advantage by having the first and last price in every bid request. They get to see what other ad networks are paying for each request. They get to optimize their profits using data from users, publishers, ad exchanges, and advertisers, mostly because of the absolute monopoly Google DFP/Ad Manager has in the ad server market. If I were a regulator that would be my first stop.

You are IMHO a tad bit optimistic, the process needs power, so - usually in remote areas - it is solar powered, and that - unless you add the complication of energy storage/batteries, limits the output to a much smaller number of hours per day.

See (as an example):

On the other hand, 350-400 lt per person is on the very high side of water consumption in a very "first world" scenario (such as the US) a more real estimate is 150-200 lt per person per day this is UK:

https://www.ccwater.org.uk/households/using-water-wisely/ave...

Germany and Spain:

https://water-for-africa.org/en/water-consumption.html

https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Water-consumption-liters...

With a minimum of attention/care 100 lt per day per person can be enough.

And a large part of this is of course not drinking water, so it needs less desalinisation.

In a "built today" home, the water flushed from the basin/shower/bath (which is relatively clean) is re-used to supply the toilet and - in some cases - the washing machine.

Newish toilets have typically double flush at 6 and 9 liters each, so if you re-use only those it is likely to be in the 30 liters per day per person saving.

These PBMs need to be eliminated along with the insurance companies that deal with them. The blame is two fold and this can be seen as a conspiracy to commit murder. Maybe not legally, of course, as these companies (pharmacy and insurance) are clearly allowed to murder people without consequence. Insurance companies whole business plan is based around this notion of providing the absolute minimum care when a patient is really sick and needs it the most. Who'd have thought there is another way to die in America just so pharmacies save a few dollars? It's widely known about insurance companies. What other companies have such legal power of death, I wonder?
