This feels like another positive sign that the de/centralized pendulum is about to swing back, as the centralizers are running out of momentum.

If low latency were actually in demand, this would be reflected in our popular runtimes and frameworks. As it stands, opening phone apps can take seconds, embedded devices shamelessly have hundreds of milliseconds touchscreen lag, and commercial webpages spend much time loading a host of malware and backhauling surveillance data.

Users do enjoy low latency, just not with enough importance to prevent the market from adding bloat up to what they're willing to tolerate. If this innovation just results in 10-20ms to load more surveillance scripts, that's not particularly noteworthy!
I used to have this in my bookmarks bar as 'defuck page' but decided that name was too awkward for work when projecting my screen.

there's a more advanced version of this that is an extension. it offers a fixed delay, adjustable per site. so you can nuke slide-overs and html5 popups as well. it isn't perfect but it's still a useful tool. sorry i don't have the link handy as i'm not using that extension currently.
Ah, I was mistaken. I thought they were extracting it.
Evidence, not proof.
If they’re just HTML pages, why would I use AMP?
It's the other way around -- AMP pages show a blank page for 8 seconds for people with ad-blockers because of that CSS rule.

Well I'm unhappy about cellphone tracking too.

Why is that problem justification for bending over to the expanding surveillance state?

Yeah I'm lacking a ton of stuff. No GUI, nothing in fact. But the tracker I've implemented (not into prod yet) does get under 90ms globally.

Your service, which I've seen is serverless, is actually pretty fast compared to other services and for that I have to admire your work. However, as I've done some response time testing on Postman (https://twitter.com/notsuryad/status/1199201916850278400?s=2...) I've found that my service is getting right next to Google Analytics' response times.

I'll release more details about how I've conducted this soon, but I hope the best for Fathom (I've used Fathom self hosted before but ran into some issues).
It's funny how condescending some will try to be about use of the command line, as if it's something special.

You can quickly invert this to read as: GUI configurations to break your dependence on the command line.

In moment's thought, it becomes very obvious that a GUI can readily conceal complexity and require earned skill in the same way any text mode interface might. Text command skills also evaporate just as quickly when you realize you were just locked into preferences specific to the system they bind to.

The command line is not better than other ways of completing tasks. When Linux (and each and every last variant) dies (however long that may take), it will become all too obvious that the essential commands people memorized were only useful within the scope of that particular operating system

Damnit, MacReady.
They can't put the percentage or denominator in the headline? Seems borderline click-baity to me. Even a percentage probably wouldn't cut it -- I can't tell from either whether it's lower or higher than I should expect. Obviously I hope for 0 sexual assaults, but it'd be nice if the headline communicated meaningful information
ARM64 Linux on sbcl is okay, and steadily improving. IIRC there's a port to one of the BSDs (Free?) that is almost done.

Obviously there's no ARM64 windows or solaris port in the works.
I think this neatly refutes the whole "I prefer Uber because it's safer than taxis!" argument that's commonly thrown around whenever the comparison comes up.

Is it accurate to say that it actually can't be used in your favor, or that it simply won't be?

I think you're giving them just a little too much credit for implementing, essentially, a product that works as expected.

And the reason for that is partly because so many companies make products that don't work as expected. Or worse they make products intentionally designed to mislead users, most of whom have very little understanding of what their device is actually telling them.

More importantly, the super-users like yourself who know when they're being deceived by symbology in UI design don't get up in the companies face when you DO discover "hey, this symbology is misleading!" Granted, companies are intentionally vague when documenting such features so that you'll essentially shame yourself into not asking "what does this little symbol actually mean?"

This is an entirely different thing than a McDonalds.

Yes, I could trivially make an automation machine to cook meat, we have them, they're called a charbroiler, similarly, toasting buns is pretty easy. The hard an expensive part is assembling all the parts into a package.
They're cheap, simple (don't require a complex BMS), predictable/safe, have a long-enough lifetime and are easy to recycle. The biggest drawback really is weight - and thereby shipping cost - but for long term stationary applications that doesn't matter.

Lithium Ion attached to a supercapacitor with a sophisticated BMS is a much more complex setup-- yet even so, it will probably end up being the gold standard in the long run at this point, I would say even in most places lead-acid is still being used. I would not have predicted anything like that even five years ago, but barring some unlikely breakthrough it seems like where we're headed.
Then maybe a business that can't make enough money to pay livable wages should cease to exist? I thought this was the idea all along?

I think you have to choose a limited perspective to make a diseconomy of scale for batteries.

CPUs, RAM, Energy and Energy storage have each reached the economy of scale point where innovation is heavily rewarded.

Single core, static dram, Oil, and lithium batteries should each fail at some point soon.
Good. That means you have good taste and can therefore improve.
I read it here:

https://webassembly.org/

Open and debuggable

WebAssembly is designed to be pretty-printed in a textual format for debugging, testing, experimenting, optimizing, learning, teaching, and writing programs by hand. The textual format will be used when viewing the source of Wasm modules on the web.

Will WebAssembly support View Source on the Web?

Yes! WebAssembly defines a text format to be rendered when developers view the source of a WebAssembly module in any developer tool. Also, a specific goal of the text format is to allow developers to write WebAssembly modules by hand for testing, experimenting, optimizing, learning and teaching purposes. In fact, by dropping all the coercions required by asm.js validation, the WebAssembly text format should be much more natural to read and write than asm.js. Outside the browser, command-line and online tools that convert between text and binary will also be made readily available. Lastly, a scalable form of source maps is also being considered as part of the WebAssembly tooling story.
I found docker was perfect for self-hosting services with relative ease. upgrades are self-contained, security is simplified behind a reverse proxy like nginx, and there are very few dependency conflicts to worry about. I've got about 40 containers running at any given time and barely think about them at all.

Definitely a good idea. Apparently some of the top architecture schools do this as well. They'll make students cook for everyone in a kitchen for a couple of weeks with the assumption that you won't be able to design a kitchen if you haven't really worked in one.

Same should apply for software as well imo.

A prosecutor that withholds evidence in a felony proceeding could be guilty of a felony in most states, and in nearly all states would be suspended or disbarred even in states where withholding evidence is not a crime.

(In nearly all US jurisdictions where it is a crime, it matters whether the withheld evidence would have affected the outcome of the trial (i.e., is "material") as it is generally not a crime to withhold non-material evidence.)

If the underlying assumption is that you can mainly attract top talent through high salaries / compensation.

I think we need to acknowledge that "top talent" is going to go other places, driven by other incentives. The academic world is filled with "top talent" that work for a measly salary, compared to the industry, because they have more freedom - and can work on what they want.

Or you have the military, which operate with a caped base salary for around $180k for their 4 star generals / admiral. It's hard to argue that the top 0.1% talent in the military are any worse than their peers at high-paying companies.

People choose different jobs / industries based on their own incentives. The smartest and most driven person I know is currently a post-doc earning $70k while doing cutting edge research in Deep Learning. He could easily be making 5-6 times that, if he just joined the industry...but he's content. /anecdote

>127. A technological advance that appears not to threaten freedom often turns out to threaten it very seriously later on. For example, consider motorized transport. A walking man formerly could go where he pleased, go at his own pace without observing any traffic regulations, and was independent of technological support-systems. When motor vehicles were introduced, they appeared to increase man's freedom. They took no freedom away from the walking man, no one had to have an automobile if he didn't want one, and anyone who did choose to buy an automobile could travel much faster and farther than a walking man. But the introduction of motorized transport soon changed society in such a way as to restrict greatly man's freedom of locomotion. When automobiles became numerous, it became necessary to regulate their use extensively. In a car, especially in densely populated areas, one cannot just go where one likes at one's own pace one's movement is governed by the flow of traffic and by various traffic laws. One is tied down by various obligations: license requirements, driver test, renewing registration, insurance, maintenance required for safety, monthly payments on purchase price. Moreover, the use of motorized transport is no longer optional. Since the introduction of motorized transport, the arrangement of our cities has changed in such a way that the majority of people no longer live within walking distance of their place of employment, shopping areas and recreational opportunities, so that they HAVE TO depend on the automobile for transportation. Or else they must use public transportation, in which case they have even less control over their own movement than when driving a car. Even the walker's freedom is now greatly restricted. In the city he continually has to stop to wait for traffic lights that are designed mainly to serve auto traffic. In the country, motor traffic makes it dangerous and unpleasant to walk along the highway. (Note this important point that we have just illustrated with the case of motorized transport: When a new item of technology is introduced as an option that an individual can accept or not as he chooses, it does not necessarily REMAIN optional. In many cases the new technology changes society in such a way that people eventually find themselves FORCED to use it.)

But if the percentage is actually small then it doesn't happen a lot. Looking at the literal number of occurrences instead of the percentage just gives you a biased impression, because any number of assaults > 0 can seem like a lot.
The majority of sexual assaults are not reported. The true number is likely 10,000+ sexual assaults based on ratios that are used for reporting rates.

Amazon is not the only search-for-something-to-buy-company. Amazon and Google can't both have a monopoly over the same market.

There's a lot of stuff that's allowed when you're a normal company and forbidden when you have a monopoly. Some courts declared google a monopoly, and that's why they are restricted in what they can display on their search pages.

(not trying to pass judgement here as to what either company should be allowed to do, just saying that's why it is the way it is.)

The behavior you describe occurs if the useragent blocks the URL https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0.js which does not have anything to do with ads or analytics.

Certainly an ad blocker can be used to block any URL, but I don't know of any that block this one by default. If there are any, let me know and I'm happy to file issues to get that fixed!

If a user chooses to block this particular resource which the page needs to load, then the page still loads after 8s.

Similarly, if the site owner chooses, they can run the AMP Toolbox optimizer (https://www.npmjs.com/package/@ampproject/toolbox-optimizer) which lays out the page server-side and removes this CSS flash for most documents. Some documents can't be laid out until the viewport size is known.

You learn a lot of little things you can do to make the cashier's job easier.

My local store had a good sale on 12-packs of soda and so I decided to stock up with a dozen packs (I like a variety). I loaded them into my cart upside-down so the barcodes were facing up. The cashier just had to take the hand scanner and zap each one super easy and didn't have to lift any of them. It saved both of us time and effort and the cashier was extremely appreciative.

I have a cynical take on this. They want to see if you can afford the time it takes to front load data structures and algorithms in short term memory. This is an excellent indicator of whether you have other demands (such as parenting) or even just outside interests that would interfere with your devotion to the job.
Going strictly by volume of clicks (or volume of clicks for a keyword) is not going to be fair or particularly useful, you need to compare clicks received to clicks expected.

The older I get the more I think labels like "lazy" are not really useful.

Some people are beaten down, discouraged, unexcited at doing hard manual labour for just enough money to get them through to the next day. And some, even if you get them to work, are not going to be much use there.

I know in my own career (have worked for decades with no sabbaticals or more than 3 weeks off at a time), I'm really lucky to do a job that I find interesting. That allows me to really dig in and work long and hard.

If I was doing a shitty manual labour job I think I'd revert from being an apparently extremely hard working person to one of the laziest ones around.
