Flash isn't responsible for anything. It was the technology used to animate the web. Something else would of came along, and of course did.
I'm a bit confused. So they really didn't know the kid wasn't in the balloon?
Here is my geekbench results:

Ironically with a superblock style plan, 14th Street would be one of the only streets where cars are allowed.

Jokes aside, yes, I really hope this is the beginning of the end of cars in Manhattan. When it was announced I was thrilled: here was the perfect flash point to grow the anti-car movement in NYC. Now we have to deliver.
I agree, we may not know the extent of the problem. But if they are tracking sources as well as they claim to be, the problem wouldn't keep growing like it is. There's a major disconnect somewhere...

And you kinda make my point. The practice is for the benefit of Amazon, not us.

(It still benefits Amazon to sell fakes already within their inventory.)

Yet it's happening. I don't claim to know all the whys, but I've ordered enough to know that it's happening. And a lot.
You're right that I need to review more of the Bel spec (which as you point out does in fact implement numbers).

But I am trying to read this in the spirit in which it's intended, as irreducible axioms. And so I don't think it's true that a character needs a representation from the perspective of Bel.

Consider if pg had approached this more like I would have, and started with integers and not characters as a built-in. Does an integer need a "representation"? At least, in a language that is not designed to execute programs in, like Bel? An implementation (with the additional constraints like width, BCD vs two's complement vs whatever, radix, etc) would need one, but the formal description would not.

Thanks for exploring the subject.

> Really, only thing that changes is instead of sending a URL hash, you send the URL DB version, and the reply is the list of changes since that version.

Or none at all and a simple confirmation that the list is up to date. Yes this is a way better idea.

Although it's always going to be less efficient. For instance i'm not sure how it would scale into the future. Checking URLs server side is optimal, it's always going to be relatively constant in proportion to the URL size, but with DB deltas each URL is now related to both the URL size and the DB update frequency, i.e as the malicious URL rate increases over time, individual URL lookups will incur greater network cost... this is probably not a big deal for the client, but It would make a significant difference for the provider of the deltas - or maybe network caching would disolve it again? I mean there would be a lot of duplicate deltas flying around every minute... basically a content distribution problem but with a high frequency twist.
We're.... misattributing some things here, I think.

Flash was a bundle of good things and bad things, as we all more or less agree. Good for creativity, bad for usability and accessibility and security, etc.

You could, obviously, do so many things in Flash that were impossible with web standards.

But, why was there such a gap between what you could do in Flash and what you could do with web standards? Why was Flash even necessary?

This was due in large part to how Microsoft acquired a stranglehold on the web right as it was beginning to really take off -- IE4, IE5, and IE6 were the defacto standards, and Microsoft used them to quash innovation on the web as they (successfully) tried to hold on to their desktop software business for another decade or so.

Perhaps we haven't lived through the worst possible timeline, but there was certainly a better outcome possible - where Microsoft didn't stifle innovation on the web for close to a decade.

(And now, of course, we're approaching another dark age as Google heads toward IE6-like market share....)
The world is an oil based economy. If people really want to move away from oil you need to transform the economy from being based on it to on based on electricity.

Which means you need a lot more power. Solar and wind still factor in but you still want that massive amount that a power plant provides, because all current storage technology won’t be able to keep up.

Plus if all reactors were the same design such as in France it lowers costs dramatically as well.
But when you return the defective product, Amazon can see what seller it came from.
I don't think it's gatekeeping. I think it's because experts need different tools to beginners, and have louder voices when a tool doesn't meet their needs.

Consider Ruby on Rails. It was the most beginner-friendly way to create a web app when it was popular, but the very things that made it that way - opinionated design, sacrificing speed/correctness/scale by using Ruby, "batteries included", and a cultish fanbase that drew new users to it - made it the target of justified criticism from experts who wanted flexibility, type safety, speed, lightweight design, fewer CVEs, and fewer annoying fanboys. Flash came under fire for similar things: performance issues, poor UX when used in the wrong place, constant security vulnerabilities, being a proprietary standard.

These are actually good criticisms! There's no shadowy cabal who arranged feigned outrage over flash vulnerabilities, people were genuinely upset that a proprietary piece of software was turning their browser security into a sieve and stopping screenreaders from working. The criticisms just failed to ask why it was so popular with beginners anyway.

I'd just like to add a caveat to point #3 that it is based on the last 10 years of low unemployment and high growth in the tech sector. Things probably will change one day. Who knows in a few years you might be competing for a "bad" mid-level position with 50 ex Googlers for half the pay.
I think the jury is still out on whether Nueman comes out ahead on this deal overall. He did some self dealing and got a bloated salary, but it also seems that much of his loans and stock sales were reinvested into wework.
The only time I ever really noticed litter in Japan was in Ueno Park during Sakura.

There's a good chance it was tourists as they had brought in skip bins that were all overflowing to the point where the skip was sitting in a mound of rubbish.

Seems not having bins in public places cuts down littering as there is no expectation that you can dump your rubbish and someone else will deal with it. A similar thing happened in Brisbane when they removed all the public bins for the G20. The few remaining bins were all overflowing with litter everywhere or people dumped rubbish where they used to be.
This is really, really great! Extremely intuitive and created great results for me.

Here's a few suggestions — please feel free to take them with a grain of salt:

* The "theme" section states: "then use the generated theme in your projects." It might be useful to be more clear that this is formatted for theme-ui on this page by linking to the docs.

* It took a second for the "What body font do you like?" jawn to pop up, so I scrolled down and only scrolled back up because things were moving around on the page.

* I use an admittedly obnoxious color for all of my personal projects (#9604f2) and the utility/extra colors that were provided weren't that great. It might be cool to have each of these colors in the "Here are your colors..." stage have a color picker — as well as when adding your own color.

* I really wish there was a back button instead of just a next button! I picked the wrong body font at first and had to reload the page to go back.

That all being said, I'm going to use the design system that I just generated pretty much immediately!
These are both interesting insights and I, am, somehow more, selfishly surprised and amused that my career isn't going away because of increasing literacy but because user experience on few devices made it so.
It’s worth noting that it’s no longer a user-friendly tool for making interactive experiences, though. The current version of Actionscript is working hard to be a Real Programming Language, with a lot more code to write to make anything happen. It feels like Java to AS2’s Basic, and you just can’t write stuff in AS2 any more.

(AS1 is gone too, it was something you had to write by selecting verbs in a massive dropdown, and good riddance to that.)

One of the bullpens at my new job pitched in and got a pull-up stand! It brings people to visit and makes the place feel like we own it a little. That's a good selling point that it causes you to rotate your shoulder blades back and up. Hanging leg lifts can also be done and are also a much more effective ab exercise than situps (since it only takes 10 reps to get tired, and you can bring your knees closer or farther away to adjust the resistance).

This analysis is a little bit weird and I don’t think quite tells the whole story. I remember digging into their 10K a while ago and the big takeaway was that a good Costco store will do somewhere around a billion dollars in revenue per year. Their merchandise profit is low, but I don’t think zero - I believe I calculated it at somewhere between half a percent and a percent on average. But again, that’s on a billion dollars per store.

Membership fees also aren’t pure profit - there’s some overhead with them and other member services at a net negative that lower it below 100%.

Ya, it's not like a software startup at all. You have to pay "developers" to build out all your new physical locations. You need to scout those locations, then you need to market and advertise those locations locally, furnish them, staff them, and then run them in the red until you get enough tenants to break even.

One would think they are profitable on a per location basis. But just losing lots of money overall due to huge growth.
I'd love to learn more about this visualisation you produced. Can you say more? Is an example output or code available?
Flash had a VM that truly was "write once, run on anything" and a great (software) pixel and vector renderer. Cross-browser compatibility with HTML standards was completely bonkers and HTML had none of the features Flash Games and Animations needed. Try to move or rotate a picture at 30 fps with old HTML.

It was just an idea floating around the circles I used to visit. I knew it improved posture so I tried it. I was also having lower back issues and general excessive computer use problems. Works well enough.

Deadlifts miss the muscles in the shoulder that tighten up from too much mouse + kb. I haven't found an excersize for that, which is as effective as deadlifts. Pushing your arms back in a door frame, holding your elbows above shoulder height, helps roll back each shoulder and stretch a tight muscle that goes from the top of your shoulder to the front of your chest that gets tight when hunched over a kb. That works in the short term, but it doesn't give the effective feeling of strengthening those muscles in such a way that the problem recurs much more slowly, like deadlifts do for your legs/back/neck.

I've tried hanging from a pullup bar and that certainly helps reset the shoulders/neck/head tension, but it's not a fix in the same way gaining strength is a fix.
> We've sunk untold billions into nuclear, a very small fraction of what has gone into renewables.

Out of curiosity, is there a good estimate for how much money the world has spent on nuclear/renewable energy research? You'd think this information should be easy to find given the importance of the nuclear vs renewables debate, but it's not obvious to me how to find it.

The My Little Pony show just ended and it used Flash for 9 seasons. Most modern cartoons use ToonBoom though.
It seems a shame that 99.99% of humans will never have the opportunity to break the record. If only there was a category for people who race unassisted by a large team of pacers, cyclists who feed them specially designed gel, and laser-equipped pacer cars.

Does anyone here remember an old DOS program called Cartooners [1]?

It let you do animated shorts with predefined characters, different backgrounds, music, speech bubbles, etc. I used to love playing around with that as a teenager.

I found the workflow ingenious: You placed a character on the screen, selected what action you wanted it to perform (like ‘Walk’), I think you selected how you wanted it to move, then you held down the REC button and watched the character act as the animation was being ‘recorded’. To do something new, you just stopped recording, set the character up for the next action, move, etc, then do the whole REC thing again. Repeat this as needed.

Adding another character? Scrub back to where you wanted that character to appear and repeat the above process.

New background? Scrub to where you wanted the new background to appear, set the background and then ‘record’ over the old one.

It was similar for everything. Put a speech bubble down where you wanted it, hold down ‘REC’ for as long as you wanted it on the screen, then just remove it and record further as needed.

It was so damn intuitive. Never seen anything quite like it since and I’d love to know if there’s a clone of it or something out there that I’ve missed!

Except go read the seller's forums. Sellers who (claim to) opt out are constantly complaining that their product still gets mixed in. Even sellers who do their own asin / personal barcodes have problems with it.

Amazon is either ignoring the preference when it suits them, or has significant flaws in how they're implementing the policy.

Either way, they're destroying their brand reputation.
That's from bad programming practices. It was very easy to write a terrible inefficient program with it since it was so accessible. There was nothing inherent in Flash that used a lot of CPU. The VM was pretty light weight. It also had only a software renderer for most of its lifetime which would naturally struggle with lots of crazy overlapping effects.

It needs to be able to name a platform, media type, IDE, all at once. E.g., "I'm going to use Flash", "It's a Flash game", "Hold on, let me animate it in Flash". The name should be able to go in domain names; e.g., "superfunflashgames.com".

Basically, it has to have a name amiable to becoming an umbrella term. That gave Flash such a "universal" connotation.

I hope this makes sense - trying to convey the _peculiarities_ of "Flash" which made it (as I see it) successfull and distinct in character.

It’s normally big successful companies and or failing companies that lays people off.

The project that you are in matters.

People stuck in maintenance mode normally are safe; whereas devs in some greenfield projects may find themselves seeking a new team/project when management decides to cancel or go a different route for the project.
Worst, if a project manager doesn’t like you.

I'm an undergrad student, and I'm nervous about picking between Tensorflow+Keras over PyTorch.

It looks like many more companies are hiring for TensorFlow, and there's a wealth of information out there on learning ML with it. In addition, it just got the 2.0 update.

But, PyTorch is preferred nearly every single time when I see the discussion come up on HN and Google searches. I'm having a hard time deciding what to dedicate my time to.

Sure you can host it on your personal site but who is gonna find it? It has to be on a 3rd party website and that 3rd party website wants some way to monetize it (by showing ads). It's harder to manage many files than one file that a VM can run as is.
Also Flash had something like 98-99% installation base during like 2000-2010 so it was very much not a problem. Flash had a much larger market share than any one browser.
Congestion charges and upzoning would fix that issue, but people with the same outlook on this problem (aka NIMBYs) that you do seem to hate those things as well.

People often forget this fact but the vast majority of cities east of the Mississippi in the U.S. developed without cars for most of their existence. Streetcars were the name of the game until the 1950s, after which personal car ownership was heavily pushed and subsidized by the government after bending to the will of GM, Ford, and Chrysler.

The entire idea of designing our cities around car ownership and the single-family household is extraordinarily new and unnatural. There's nothing prohibiting us from creating density in these post-WWII cities; just look at Denver or Portland and their massive successes with public transit and upzoning.
The most funny thing happens with SSDs. Even when same block is reclaimed and overwritten by OS, it very rarely overwrites the bits in NAND flash, due to the wear leveling implemented in SSD controller chip.
