Exactly. The other thing is that the tools you use define how you think. Nobody is using HTML properly, it is as if the only elements are div and span. Why can't we have people using the full vocabulary?

If you only think in terms of div and span with a gigantic mess of CSS making it look like a web page then you are never going to write good content.

Content means articles with sections with asides, headers, details and summaries and regular HTML goodness such as lists. If you can write your content in a sensibly structured way then you can style the elements consistently with a minimal amount of classes.

Also to add to the mix is CSS variables. People that aren't using them in their CSS for making pages responsive are just not using CSS sensibly and are doomed to use a hacky scheme to manage untold bloat-CSS.
I've learned to love matplotlib and its OO interface.

I just wish that its documentation examples would consistently provide the OO interface version of how to achieve each example, at least alongside the state-machine version.

It's always frustrating to see an example image that shows exactly what I want to achieve, and then click on the code for it and it's using the other interface, and I have to try to guess the equivalent OO commands. Which are always slightly different, like set_ylabel instead of ylabel...
> To each their own, but I personally learned to hate this approach. In my experience, it leads to a CSS spaghetti full of overrides and `!important` just to get all the utility classes to play nicely across a site. And of course the markup becomes less readable.

I wrote many many CSS lines in my life and !Important is part of OOCSS world more than utility first. How do you write !Important in a functional space? It's kinda impossible unless you want to overwrite things too much from outside the funcional classes. That would be a problem and it would tell you that your approach was not good from start.
The manual thing is such a canard.

The directive issued is literally just reminding pilots of a procedure they should already know - reset the trim to stabilize the plane and throw the cutout switch. The issue with MCAS changing how the plane performed was remediated by skills pilots should have irrespective of feature descriptions in a manual.
>The article gave a clear method of avoiding higher concentrations: stay further from sources of pollution. Even a tiny distance made a big change. So sit away from the exhaust pipe of a bus, walk on the inside of the sidewalk, etc

Also, avoid being inside public transit buses, or carpool cars, because, according to the article, the highest levels are actually inside the vehicles. Just don't travel anywhere, really, or you're killing yourself.

Linux 10.2 Released
I appreciate the response. I get that... (I think)

I just don't get why that necessarily has anything to do with supply itself. It has to do with the distribution, and as a result, the quality or utility of the network.

As you said, one person having 20 phones is off dubious value, but 20 additional people with phones might increase the network's quality.

The supply (20) is independent of the resulting quality/saturation/useful node count.

On the other hand, increased nodes could be seen as a negative. Like the US-Russia hotline. Or Facebook after it opened up to users without college email accounts.

Sometimes supply might affect the quality of a network, and therefore the value of having a node (phone) on that network. But to say supply increases with demand is misleading, to me. Increased quality increases demand, at a rate greater than the rate demand is decreased due to increased supply.

If supply happens to increase quality, then yes supply might dominate the equation such that demand increases as supply increases. But that doesn't mean the fundamental relationship between supply and demand has changed, it's just been minimized for particular cases.

Or maybe I'm just getting confused by transitive semantics.

Americans and Privacy: Concerned, Confused and Feeling Lack of Privacy
I skimmed the article, but I don't think it covered one of the reasons why I prefer utility-first CSS. When all the CSS is in a separate CSS file I can look at a page's HTML and have no idea what it will actually look like. But with utility-first CSS, just by looking at the classes on the HTML elements I can make a pretty good guess at what the HTML will look like when rendered. I'm sure a lot of people won't see this as useful, but I really really appreciate it.

> The psychological thriller examines the lives of two hunters -- one is a serial killer who preys on victims in and around Belfast, Northern Ireland, and the other is a female detective drafted from the London Metropolitan Police to catch him. The local authorities have no suspects and no experience with cases involving sexually motivated serial killers; DSI Stella Gibson has. She heads a task force dedicated to solving the crime spree, with a simple motto: Anyone not part of the solution is part of the problem. The killer? He's Paul Spector, a father and a husband leading a double life, as viewers learn from the outset. He's hiding in plain sight, the protagonist in a cat and mouse game that is every police officer's worst nightmare.

> Isn't the way the law is written the real root cause here? Judges and courts don't write laws...

This is a complicated question, but I would argue that the answer is no. Congress trying to anticipate every corner case ahead of time would be a nightmare, so instead the courts exist to take general laws and apply them to specific cases.

Even if congress tried to write a law with no unspecified edge cases, they would fail, because any law they pass has to be within the powers granted to them by the constitution, and those powers are vague. The relevant power here is literally "[the United States Congress shall have power] To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries". That's it, one sentence, it's vague and there is no fixing it. If congress tries to legislate something that falls a bit outside of it, or that violates any of the various rights and freedoms specified in equally vague sentences, the law, at least as applied such that is violates the constitution, doesn't exist.

It's also not quite true that judges and courts don't write law in our common law system. They do, that's what the "common" part is about. Statutory law takes precedence, common law fills in the gaps. Here's an example of a case where the Texas Supreme Court directly addresses that they are creating new exceptions to the law, and that they can do so because the relevant law in the first place was invented by the courts: https://www.casemine.com/judgement/us/59148e86add7b04934555a...
It’s just dynamic binary translation. It isn’t a full system emulator. It works fine for many other implementations.
I wonder if my base still stands. But the 2b2t server has gone pay 2 play so haven't played for some years. Have the coordinates written down somewhere. Btw it would be really fun with a Minecraft like game focusing on PvP, since Minecraft is focused on co-op it does not have any cheat preventions, which ruins the experience on servers like 2b2t.

In general, all such mechanics are a dramatic simplification of reality, and when doing such a procgen, you don't do such a from-scratch approach, because it's unfeasible. What you do instead is realize that you want a tidallocked world, then figure out the most important outcomes of it, then fiddle with your generation rules till you get something that looks mostly correct.

More likely than not, it's perfectly feasible in the nms engine, but the devs themselves haven't put much thought towards it.

Also see heredragonsabound; you can get really far with parameter fiddling.
For those following along, it went great!

The procedure itself was as comfortable as they could make it, you know, for cutting a flap in your eye and blasting part of it away.

This morning I went in for followup and have 20/15 vision. A mild amount of blood under one flap which will dissipate within a week.

So far, only mild discomfort after the initial healing yesterday, which was pretty irritating. Now, it just feels like there's an eyelash that won't go away. I have to keep reminding myself that I can't adjust my contact lenses any more.

There is some staring I noticed looking at the clock display in a dark room, but nothing worse than the old pair of glasses I was wearing in the interim. But that's supposed to almost completely fade over 6 months.

You could probably have a network of multistory buildings linked by walkways and such.
Orchestration tools (which also include chef/puppet/etc.) inherently need to be able to notice when something is just a little out of whack, and respond by just calculating the smallest action that will restore things to the way they “should” be.

Unless your scripting language is both deterministic, essentially syntactic sugar for a dependency digraph that the orchestration system knows how to calculate reduced patches of, it’ll break the “convergence” abstraction of the orchestration system: in est, it won’t know for sure what state the system is in after the script runs, so it won’t know what needs to be done to put the system back into any other state later on.

Not that such scripting languages don’t exist. Apache BEAM, for example, is a set of SDKs for various languages that let you write code that compiles to dependency+data-flow digraphs. But it’s probably not the type of scripting you’re thinking of.

I should also mention, though, that systems like k8s do allow arbitrary programming (not necessarily “scripting”) through Operators (https://coreos.com/blog/introducing-operators.html). Rather than scripting the orchestration system itself, you write a new type of component for it to orchestrate, where that component is both created/managed by the orchestration system, and, through delegation, is responsible for implementing the method by which the orchestration creates/manages other specified types of resources.

> she'll cycle along roads because "exercise offsets it."

Ideally, we'd cycle on paths away from busy roads to reduce exposure to pollution. But that option isn't available for all cities and all commutes.

But the point is that if you're going to be exposed to pollution anyway, you might as well get some exercise.
> wouldn't you say that when naming things for the purpose of targeting them with styling, what they look like is indeed what they are?

What do you mean? A "comment" is likely to stay a "comment" forever, whereas its bold'ness or italic'ness can/will likely change relatively often.
That is the justification I usually hear, but I don't buy it. Like, 99+% of the time, I want to use these kinds of operations to manipulate lists which are orders of magnitude away from anything even approaching a scalability issue. I just don't care about memory allocations when trying to manipulate something like, say, a list of active users in a real-time chat or something. And often I find that the mess coming out of having to implement those same operations without expressive constructs is worse than the messes that people can create (though I grant I've seen those errors too).

This hints at some of the ideas behind Go – it's designed, perhaps, for Google-scale software. This is dealing with problems (like e.g. memory allocation) that I don't have when working with most datasets I'm likely to need. Maybe we just have to accept that.
Cool.

I wonder if I am getting to be that old guy but I tend to go back to styles that mimics windows XP classic style (not the blue, silver or green one) the most. To me it's the most readable graphics. Right now I am using KDE with the default breeze theme.

I recently used a recent copy of photoshop and premiere and the black UI and the widgets being different from the UI of the whole system really bugged me off (I remember a quote related to windows applications "applications shouldn't skin themselves, it's the job of the windows manager/OS"). I think I like it when all the applications on the installed system (or session) are consistent and look and feel the same.

Though on Linux I remember that Firefox, Openoffice and other big name applications always had a look that somehow was slightly off with the default look of the underlying window manager.

edit: although my first personal computer as a kid was an 8088 Windows 3.1 is the first GUI I used for a long time all the way to XP (then I fully switched to linux, around 2005 or something).

That's a great article.

Whitehead's quote from that article ("Everything of importance has been said before by somebody who did not discover it") is elegantly stating that it's unoriginal turtles all the way down.

Rust has an interesting relationship with cognitive load. At first, it is fairly high. But then, at some point, stuff just clicks and it drops dramatically. How long that takes depends on the person, they’re background, how much support they have, etc. As a random anecdote, we had a team at work who started a Rust project, and it took them a month or two to get going. Now they’re sailing quite smoothly. (We have other teams as well but I’m only really familiar with the process for one of them.)

The reason for this is that you have to learn to work with the compiler and its rules. At first, that’s a struggle. But later, it’s just helpful, and you have to think about things way less because the compiler is helping you keep track of them. It’s like a pair programmer.
We aren't talking about "code with feeling behind it" but rather "code as some kind of art".
There's something about russ cox writings that exemplifies go 'cleanliness', they engineer stuff to make a task clearly, nicely and nothing more.

Okay, I'll start. How about ridding humanity of all manner of disease? How about designer drugs, custom made for your particular DNA? How about, to the extent intelligence is determined by DNA (80% by some estimates), increasing the intelligence of the population, furthering our understanding of the universe? How about my dad who suffered years of paralysis until a 23andme test revealed a genetic mutation his many, many doctors didn't consider and now he's mobile and active again just by taking inordinate amounts of B12 vitamins?

Does it really help so if the procedure is the same but the critical element, the cut-off switch changed function? I'd say no, in that case procedure had changed. If it would have just been some kind of human error, like Air France 447, it wouldn't have grounded the whole fleet for the time being.

the major linux distributions could all get acquired by microsoft, google and ibm, but they have to give out they're kernel changes for free. thing is, increasing portions of our stack are bsd/mit/etc. those licences could go anywhere. “amazon postgres” could be funded well enough to hollow out the market. “we're already using 10 aws only api's, we're paying for support, and it's got these great features, and i can run it in virtual box/docker/whatever for porsonal and development use.” next thing you know, you wonder why independent cloud providers are dead.

consumer computing will struggle, even worse than it does in these days of android-vs-ios that made the old (windows vs will this be the year of linux on the desktop) days look like a free software hayday.

the cloudification of computing has destroyed any dreams of free software stacks - nowadays people call us thieves for not running other people's code on our own computer.

but those problems aren't caused by microsoft buying canonical. but embrace, extend, extinguish. it's a known game, and we're the losers, even when we feel like the winners. who cares what licence the kernel and ls are distributed under, that's not what anyon's buying.
Show HN: Experimenting with Uses of Amazon's Insulated Trash
This is exactly the take I have been expecting to unfold for a lot of developers regarding Go. It is a very compelling language to get started with because it is so reductionist compared to alternatives like Java and C#. This makes learning it very straightforward, to the extent that you would almost want to die defending the language that is feeding your dopamine loop.

But, one day you might wake up and realize it was all a fantasy. That is, if you ever step foot into a shop where you are expected to build a line-of-business application with sufficiently-complex business entities and rules. All of your ideas about how wonderful Go is will fly directly out the window. Sure, you can eventually implement anything in Go. It is Turing complete after all. But, that isn't to say you'll have enough time to implement it. Go advocates will happily dismiss the value of things like LINQ, generics & reflection until they are faced with a reality where tools like these are the most productive way get a feature into production before 2020 hits. If you open your mind up to the possibility of using different (god forbid, unique) approaches to solve problems, you might then find that Go does not even offer the best implementation of these alternative language features.

Of course, once you support scripting, why not just do everything in a deployment script?

I think a lot of these tools are based on the assumption that declarative configuration should be sufficient. The tools eschew scripting because introducing it would call their basic assumptions into question.
