Awesome!

There is a way to avoid some of the pain discussed in the article with iframes as well, and it uses techniques from domain-driven design as applied to microservice architectures. So in this analogy the iframes are your "browser microservices" and the main app is also a sort of microservice and they all have to communicate with each other.

The basic idea there is that most microservice architectures are actually subtly monolithic because they have direct communication via The Database. Basically whenever you have a shared database you have a form of tight coupling which defeats the point of microservices. So in DDD, you deal with communications difficulties by creating these Bounded Contexts where a word means one given thing; applying that here with a notion that "meaning" is controlled by The Database, you want to transition to "miniliths" where a set of services has its own local database. Then your two miniliths talk to each other by passing messages back and forward; generally you want these messages to be Events ("this happened over here and I thought you should know about it but I don't want a response") rather than Requests (which invite responses and then you have to ask questions about what if the response is not what you expected or it was not received, etc., what happened in the middle?). You don't have to go the whole way to an Event Sourced Architecture (where your model is entirely determined by a sequence of received Events which have been stored in a database and can be used to "rehydrate" that model from scratch at any given time) to get about 80% of the value of the message-passing.

So translated to this context, basically what you have is a model of your system (possibly simplified) that you keep inside of the iframe and a model you keep in the app; the message bus communicates changes between the two but it seldom needs to serialize the whole structure at any given time. You allow plugins to interact with the in-iframe-model and it sends events "hey this happened" to the outside world, which has to respond to those events by updating its own data model. But fundamentally you have these two separate data models for the thing and they are being held together by a promise of eventual consistency through message-passing the diffs to the structure.
No, I'm suggesting that we start a linear reduction right now and be done in 20 years. Perhaps overshoot the target by a few years and pay for it with carbon sequestration.
It's pure delusion to think you can get everyone to band together to change the climate.

We can't people to stop murdering each other, stealing, lying, or many other harmful things.

You are arguing that propaganda is the solution to climate change. That manipulating people by appealing to their emotions will lower the carbon in the air.

But, you are missing that whoever controls the best manipulation tactic decides the outcome of that manipulation. Want to guess who that will be? The rich and powerful is my guess.

I think we could fix the climate in one simple way, stop polluting. The problem with this is that then the US isn't the biggest polluter, so that is not a "feel good" message.

Okay, but art direction has nothing to do with the size of the game? I basically just argued that their games look worse since going HD.
That only works on AWS & GCE. A restic based operator will work anywhere.
Instead of jQuery why not use a more minimalistic reactive library like Vue.JS?

Using jQuery will just make you suffer in the end. You end up having to write loads of code to manage the state of the DOM and it just gets more complicated as your project expands.
Palantirs were created by elves if I am not mistaken. Sauron has stolen / acquired palantirs in battles but originally they were used by people like Gandalf or Elrond for communication. Somebody correct me if I’m wrong.
I guess this explains the "Defend the Shire" shirts I see Palantir employees wear sometimes. Always thought the idea they're on the side of the pastoral, mind-their-own-business Hobbits was one of the most absurd misconceptions of their purpose of any company in Silicon Valley, and that's really saying something.
>They could also let asylum seekers go, and allow them to live in the United States pending a hearing

There are many issues, yes. Why can't you give the administration credit for fixing one of them? Why point to another problem and say, "but this isn't fixed yet!"
>Who would punish them? The customers?

Future potential employees. If I go on glassdoor and read about this happening I'm either going to

A: raise my rates as I need to keep a larger emergency fund to deal with these guys

B: decline to work there at all

They end up only ever getting entry level kids to work for them. The system sort of works in that regard if you come from a non-traditional background you can work for a year or two at a job like that, skill up and move on.

This is useful feedback, thank you. There's definitely still a lack of documentation, and I'm working to improve that. Currently, Scarf takes fees only to cover the Stripe fees, it doesn't add any additional fees in an effort to encourage people to give it a try. Scarf will eventually take its own transaction fees but that exact amount isn't ironed out yet. I'll add this to the FAQ
* K8up uses Restic, k8s-snapshots Tarsnap

* K8up doesn't do snapshots but file-based backups supporting any RWX storage and to some extend RWO (still to be improved)

* K8up can do pre-backup tasks like dumping a database to have application consistent backups

* K8up has a great amount of monitoring backed in for providing a good overview via Prometheus if the backups really work

* K8up can send webhooks about backups available to allow integrations into third party control panels. F.e. Lagoon[1] uses it

Yup. A few years ago I tried to reduce my dependence on the computer by writing more things down by hand, only to discover my left hand had developed a nervous tic that resulted in me attempting to hit command-S on the paper.
This is hyperbole for sure - there are some amazing things that Figma does and I love using it, but it's still missing a lot of things that Sketch and Illustrator have. On the plugin side which is what this article was about, Sketch is leagues ahead of Figma. File system access and native app functionality mean that plugins can go beyond just the constraints of a browser. Even in the web constraints though, Sketch is still leading in the support it has. An example of this is an events API - Figma doesn't have any way to listen to insertions of components and react accordingly to it. This vastly limits the scope of what Figma plugins can do - they can only be proactive, not reactive. Often we want plugins that just work seamlessly, and right now Figma doens't support that.

Illustrator on the other hand is still vastly better at what it's named after - illustration. Figma has great basic vector functionality that will cover 99% of your design needs, but little around illustration needs.

I'm really excited for Figma and what comes out of it, but it still has a long way to go to catch up. I think it has a better foundation though.
You seem to be conflating first-party cookies with third-party ones. The originating party of the cookie, with respect to the site the user get the cookie from, is the crucial point on that subject in this context.
I did not read that as defending his art style, I saw it as getting at something deeper. His argument is not really about defending the quality of graphics in his games, they are much more about showing the calculus and weighing of his choices.

The first and key point is that there are people (such as myself) who actually like his graphic style and who, above all, prioritize the excellent story telling in his games. These are the people who sustain his business.

The second point is one of niche indie versus AAA or even popular indie. It's a similar sort of argument as between "life-style" businesses versus VC backed businesses. Specifically, in the game industry, the effort into graphics and assets versus reward from customers gained is not a linear function of effort, where small increases result in small gains. It is not even a smooth function where there are small in-between things you can do that will have an impact.

Now, in hackernews style, you believe that there is a simple solution but remember, the issue is not of graphics but getting to a sustainable business. This is someone who has survived making games for 25 years where so many better more consistent looking games have flopped or their parent companies folded. Besides, from my short time working on games, it seems to me you are both overestimating and underestimating the gains from such touchups. The people who care about such things are very exacting and the people who don't care are very forgiving. The upshot is, either the touchups you list will not matter or they will never be enough. Which leads to a key point.

There is a large step function covering not just graphics but also animation and sound quality to where the majority would consider acceptable. He is not complaining that good artists are too expensive, he is stating that the incurred risk required to afford majority acceptable game assets is not worth it, compared to what he is comfortable with and how he wishes to live his life.

He is happy with his current niche and those of us who feel nothing for the latest shiny 3D raytraced games are grateful that developers like him exist.

Those of you who seek to create businesses should consider knowing yourself and what will truly make you happy. Do you want great wealth and acclaim or the freedom to live your life mostly as you please, content without any great material or status need?
Another cool metric that's used commonly when measuring quality difference between two texts is a BLEU score (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BLEU)
Note that the article you linked is about CBP, which is not part of ICE.

Also note that ICE doesn't just enforce immigration laws, they also do things like this: https://www.ice.gov/news/releases/missouri-felon-indicted-se...

Officers executed a search warrant at Lee’s residence and found numerous firearms, ammunition, firearm suppressors, suspected methamphetamine, marijuana, suspected stolen farm equipment, and a large amount of cash. Lee told officers that he received 10 to15 past deliveries of the selector switches, and that he converted and successfully fired a Glock pistol as a fully automatic firearm.
I use iframes with my software to separate user accounts and other "SaaS boilerplate" into one web app that then proxies your web app and uses an iframe's srcdoc to serve the content within a template regardless of which server it came from. Using the srcdoc attribute lets you skip an additional request and mask the server's address, but it comes with some additional API restrictions like not having document.location.

I believe this approach was pioneered by Facebook some years ago in the earliest incarnation of their app platforms. There was no iframe sandboxing so they had an intermediate contrived language called "FBML" which compiled to a subset of HTML they allowed. That was the platform where Zynga made their fortune on Farmville originally, just before the iPhone.

We are in private beta for 6-7 months, so not that bad. Also it took our competitors 2-3 years before the first release as well, so it seems that is not a huge problem. We hope...
> They could also let asylum seekers go, and allow them to live in the United States pending a hearing. That's what we've been doing until this administration.

Granted, there have been a large increase in the number of people who skip their asylum hearings. From 2013 to 2017 this figure was lower, averaging ~44%. More recent samples put this figure in the 70% range and by some estimates even into the 90% range.

We could have ICE deport people who miss their hearings but ICE raids generate even more negative PR than detaining people at the border.
Ask HN: What are people using mruby for?
mruby is a lightweight, embeddable Ruby interpreter that Matz + many others have been working on. Has anyone here used it for anything in production? If so, what was the use case?
Most of what you mention are sustainability propositions, which are not useful long term, probably not even short term. We can’t create sustainability, it’s a fad we’ve all been fed, based on anthropometric views of the world which aren’t going to improve it. They will cause stagnation and that will cause collapse faster than climate change ever could.

Electric cars still cost to produce what non electrics do, we have to take into account the backend (mining ect) as well. Gas is most likely as bad according to many reports. Countries which have made the switch like Brazil in cars haven’t produced the results expected, again the production is still not clean.

Wind is unreliable in most cases and non scalable. Solar is ok, but expensive and we can’t deploy it for everything(think maritime transport).

The way to solve our problem is with innovation that can really replace our main source of consumption. Think population bomb/explosion in the 50-60s. Whaling shift to electricity and vegetable oils late 1800s. All was replaced by new tech, which has decayed into bad tech, and the new tech we develop will probably also decay into bad tech again in 100years. That’s the way it works. Only realistic current solution is fusion.

Fusion, carbon-sequestering tech, geo-engineering, betavoltaics(One can dream) and new innovations are always the way forward. The rest are bandaids on the dam + have cost us a lot of money/time at subpar results.

I think you've used only bad devices so you've had a bad experience. Use a good pair of Bluetooth headphones like Sony WH1000 or Bose Qc35 along with a good phone like Galaxy S10. It's perfect. No cut outs, amazing quality, insane range.

I was only really sold on Figma because it could actually read Sketch files. That was an absolute blessing when I worked on a Windows machine. It’s improved loads since then but ultimately I’d still take a native app over a browser-based one.

Yes, in the UK most professional jobs will offer private health as a benefit, plus NHS rules for getting on lists for operations are pretty fair, essentially if you can prove it’s affecting your life you can get operations for lots of things. There are the classic tabloid stories of people getting boob jobs and gender reassignment surgery on the NHS but I’m sure for the people affected it was a godsend.

My own brother got his ear pinned back when he was a teenager because he was being bullied about it at school. Cost nothing and happened within a couple of months of GP appointment.

I would come home from middle school and have multi-hour conversations with the people I had just seen at school, plus a few strangers from the internet, only taking a break for dinner. It was an unusual time.

You'd need to include the infrastructure to be able to launch B-29 fleets over Tokyo, which was much of the Pacific Theatre effort. That itself was a major share of the total $288 billion (1945 dollars) US expense of the war itself, far more than the Manhatten Project itself.

Mainland US flights were unable to reach Japan, even from Hawaii or Alaska. Large-scale effort required control of a large portion of the Pacific and both launch and recovery capabilities.

A significant number of aircraft for the Doolittle raids (early in the war) were ditched before they could reach their designated LZs in China. The aircraft, B25B Mitchell medium bombers, could launch from carriers (easier to arrange for than island occupation), but lacked either the range or raw capability to land on the Hornet. The raids were effective as a shock and demonstration of US reach and capabilities, but had minimal direct military effect.

> IIRC something like 80-90% of people returned for their court dates under the old system where they were not detained anyways and even if you did think that number is too high there are other options like ankle monitors to ensure they could be tracked down.

It's the same issue as with practically everything else digital these days. Hugely complicated thousand-page standards that few, if any, understand in their entirety. Implementations that are rushed to market to "be fixed later because it's just software" - which never actually happens because the next thing comes along and instead of fixing existing shit it's again a rush to the deadline to push more of it out the door.
Thanks. For a single-person or maybe two-person team working in the same office, would you recommend Figma or Sketch?

That seems a lot more cost effective, to train algorithms in a virtual, rather than physical, environment.

On the other hand, like with self-driving cars, for some purposes it makes sense to provide physical, real-life situations and objects, with all its chaos, unexpected and unpredictable events.

For "true" intelligence matching human expectations, I imagine an understanding of the physical environment and its complexity is key. Otherwise, it could only deal with abstract concepts, like pure mathematics, but missing the experience of concrete reality - to be able to relate to us.

According to the article doing that would subject the recipient to prosecution. So any transfer is a big deal all the way to ground.

I had a recruiter reach out, and I actually played along with their interview process, but at every step of the way I’d inquire about the company’s ethics. Nailed all the tech questions, but in the end did not get an offer.

Maybe I didn’t do as well as I thought I did on the tech, or maybe Palantir recruiting is selecting for people who don’t ask questions.
