FWIW, one of our driving values is to specifically _not_ compromise in this way. We actively avoid having a "lowest common denominator" approach. I learnt about the risks of such an approach when I was the HTML spec editor. It's one of the reasons that we have been only adding new platforms very carefully, and it's why we've been focusing so much on mobile first. The vast majority of the team is focused on mobile, with a small team on Web and an even smaller team (1-4 people depending on how you count it) working on desktop.

Totally amazed that share buybacks are controversial. If a company believes its shares are undervalued, and the best place to use its capital, then it should buy them back. In the same way, if a company decides retiring debt is in its best interest, then it should use the money that way instead (and that often happens when it has high priced debt in the markets that's callable and interest rates fall). Comparing share buy back and R&D makes no sense. Would we rather have Apple invest in R&D that it doesn't believe in, just so it has a place to put its money? If companies couldn't buy back their stocks, they most likely would pay dividends or just bank it (which is what Apple did for decades), and the share price would rise anyway.

Share buybacks don't dodge taxes - at least not directly. They allow the price to rise for those people who aren't selling (in the same way that banking the money would).
I work in a small town in the UK that is being slowly killed by people driving through the centre either looking for a free parking spot of just because it shortens their journey by a minute or so.
And yes, these are the people who believe their freedom to do so is what's keeping the town alive - despite much evidence to the contrary (ie. many closed down businesses).
This is what I do. I use a mail client and forgo web interfaces unless forced. Fastmail is a fine mail provider (I'm cheap and I'm not giving up my 4 grandfathered GSuite custom domain accounts, especially since 3 of them have support for 50 "users" b/c moving the same setup to Fastmail would cost hundreds of dollars a year), but even with them, I would still much rather use a mail client.

We decided against using vscode verbatim for a few reasons, chief among them is keeping repl.it simple for people starting to code.

And as much as I like vscode and the team behind it, it doesn't seem smart to tie your core tech to a project under the control of MSFT.

With regards to extensions you can easily imagine a vscode-replit bridge.

Finally, we came up with a novel approach to IDE/window management that we think people will be excited to write extensions for when we open it up: https://repl.it/blog/ide

Both Vue and React have props. The above code is a snippet; I used the same format as the Vue documentation (which I agree is a little confusing).

> Where's the span for x?

I assumed Vue was only using the span for v-if, in React we don't need that extra node.

> <li>'s are generated by magic?

Whoops -- an omission on my part. They should be wrapping the inside of the mapping function.

> I just don't like mixing html and js like that, maybe that's why it also seems messy to me.

But this is where the magic is. It's exactly why React didn't need to invent a concept for "slots". I admit it's vaguely unfamiliar at first but if it increases both the power and simplicity of your template it's a no-brainer.

If you want to contribute to the value of the organization because you're a substantial equity holder, then talk to the founders. A sweatshop with high turnover should be less valuable to an acquirer than a strong team. Your initiative may be well received as leadership and you can get your promotion that way.

If you want to stay in the organization and get promoted by performance metrics, then figure out what numbers are being evaluated and work to maximize them, so that you appear as the model worker. It's not very hard to stay one step ahead of management if that's the game you're playing. If you have the best relationships and the best metrics, you should be able to get your promotions.

If you want to stay in the organization and coast, then who cares, just do what you want and they're almost certainly not going to fire you without plenty of warning. If you do get put on a PIP, then go find a new job immediately, and repeat. From what I can tell, most of the workforce does something similar to this for 30-40 years.

If you're not a leader, not a model worker, and not on autopilot, then you probably need to find a new organization where you can be one of those things.

What do you mean, doesn't Google only hire the best of the best?
That’s only true as long as the buybacks are done using a cash pile. There are a lot of companies that, instead of trying to grow, give dividends to their investors (think utility companies). Their stock prices tend to be pretty stable, since their inherent worths don’t change much. Suppose there is a 100 million dollar power company that instead of giving dividends of 1% per year, they instead bought back stock with that money. We would expect the stock valuation to go up by about 1%, since it’s now 99% of the stocks holding 100% of the 100 million dollar business.

Not an author, but there's a lot of overlap. Code bugs lead to breaches which lead to data theft and loss of privacy, namely.

Figuring out various strategies for tightening up that causality chain improves both security and privacy. Formal verification and security proofs of cryptography code.

Using application or systems frameworks that have been developed with a security-first mentality, rather than security-bolted-on mentality (too many today use the latter). Etc.
I can only think of no more than a few common English names that use diacritics, and most commonly drop them. Remember, this subthread spawned from discussing ASCII and English, not other languages.

One of the big reasons I left my last job was because management talked a lot about PD (professional development). However, the approval process for learning resources was vague and long. On top of that, we were told to learn on our own time and that at work, you were to work. I realized that to them, PD was something they encouraged but did not support. I eventually found out that the avg tenure was much shorter than the number I was told during interviews. I wonder why...

Well they're efficient for use cases that any other transportation option doesn't work for. Just like a bus is very efficient at moving 80 people in one direction, a car is efficient at moving one person in 80 directions.

If we didn't have private cars, businesses couldn't efficiently do things like deliveries, and individual people couldn't make trips that are outside the scope of public transit. So to replace them entirely we still need to fill those gaps.

There's no point in comparing the EU and the US as wholes. What matters is the density of a particular urban core. Many American cities have dense cores. Beyond the obvious big three off the top of my head some cities I have visited that could support some closed streets in the core: DC, SF, Baltimore, Philly, New Orleans, Minneapolis, Portland, Honolulu, Charleston, Dallas. No one is suggesting changing everything everywhere, but large cities do exist in every corner of the country.
Tangential; I took a Kenmore Air seaplane flight from Seattle (South Lake Union) to Victoria this summer, and it was absolutely amazing. I loved every second of it, and can't recommend it highly enough. 45 minutes flying time, so quick and convenient. We walked to and from hotels on both end.

When I lived in the northwest, it was trivial to drive+ferry to Victoria, even though it was very slow. I always thought the Clipper hydrofoil, let alone flying, were unfathomably expensive luxuries.

But as a tourist without a car and on a limited schedule, suddenly the Clipper (hydrofoil passenger-only ferry from downtown) and flying seem like reasonable options versus having to rent a car, pay for fuel, take a car ferry, drive a bunch on both ends, pay for parking, etc.

In the end, I think Kenmore cost less than 2x what the Clipper would have cost us. Not cheap, but absolutely worth it for a novel one-time experience. One passenger even remarked that the seaplane flight was cheaper than flying from Sea-Tac to Victoria airport, before even factoring in the fact that neither airport is near the major city you're coming from or going to.
It happens! Sorry. We do plan to do something eventually to share karma with earlier submissons. In the meantime it's a bit of a lottery, but it does even out in the long run if you keep submitting good stories.

At the scale of the Pacific Plate it isn't one rigid piece but more of a soft plastic plate. Sure, movement in one area changes stress in other boundaries but there are quite a few more inputs and outputs like the diverging boundaries spanning the east side of the Pacific Plate (Juan de Fuca, Explorer Ridge, Galapagos Rise, East Pacific Ridge, Pacific Antarctic Ridge are a few). Some of these are more responsible for the Ring of Fire than the Pacific Plate boundaries: the other end of the Juan de Fuca plate is the Cascadia Subduction Zone and the Nazca Plate as part of the Andean orogeny to name two.

Significant earthquakes can be produced by motion that isn't aligned with the general east to west movement of the Pacific Plate. Fault structures around the plate boundaries, fault complexes associated with the bordering plates (North America, South American, Antarctic, etc), and localized stress associated with subduction and volcanoes all produce large earthquakes. This research includes at least one of these quakes (Landers).
The only real reason why we don't have car-free side streets in Philly (the ones that are too skinny for a car to get through anyway, forcing people to park on one of the sidewalks) is due to handicapped people becoming immobilized.

One unfortunate issue / question: are compilers smart enough to emit tests for CPU support for these extensions? I see no mention of that, and if the answer is "no" you will find yourself being still forced to hand-roll this stuff.

Let's say I build a binary with AVX support. Will it run on a CPU without AVX support?

It's less of an issue with older SSE stuff that is effectively universal across all X64 chips, but it's a big issue with late SSE and AVX extensions.

I agree. But can you explain why this is? For me, it's just a hunch.

> Does this mean the end of Electron, finally?

If it's a much smaller footprint, memory and CPU wise, it could be. Also depends on how easy it is to learn the language/framework and how easy it is to deploy to multiple platforms. That lack of friction is what makes Electron so devilishly popular.

Sure if you include rural areas. Some places in the US are just as dense as European cities, just woefully inefficiently managed. You can't fix LA traffic without getting people out of cars.

You can't have both, you can't complain about congestion yet talk about how Americans love their cars. You get both the congestion and deaths and pollution and GHG's with over-reliance on cars and there is no magic fix to it other than having less people drive.
I think your analysis is spot on, thanks for sharing.

I disagree, vscode UI is pretty simple and even if not you can always creat a basic theme and use it as the initial default (after all it's just css/html) to make it simpler for novice users, the code is not really under the control of Microsoft in the sense the is open source and in the worse case scenario you create a fork from the latest build, which is already pretty stable. Microsoft itself realized the reality of this rationale and that's why their latest web browser is Chromium-based despite Chromium being under the "control" of Google.

We started testing paid ads on LinkedIn and Facebook. We spent about $500/month to test. Just to clarify, this was to find customers for our product/service, not to acquire followers. Growing social media followers was only through making posts on LinkedIn.

I started by accepting every connection I received. In month 5 I switch the default "Connect" button in my profile to follow because I was at 20,000 connections. LinkedIn has a max of 30K connections.
It takes a 747 quite a bit more than 2.5 minutes to reach cruising altitude. 30,000 ft at 5000 fpm is 6 minutes, and engine input is a lot higher than 90 MW because engines are not even close to 100% efficient (neither are electrical ones).

Also, the weight on landing is critical not on takeoff, and you can't exactly shed battery weight because empty batteries weigh roughly the same as full ones do, so you will need to take maximum landing weight into account.

Finally, you need to take reserve fuel into account, alternates and headwinds.

I think you should re-do these numbers with more realistic inputs.

I don't sign into any Google services in my web browser. If I need to sign in with Google, I use incognito or a separate browser profile if it's constantly necessary for some set of tasks.

They're still probably tracking me, but I don't care as much about that as I do about not getting locked into any one platform. The only Google service I'm really hooked on is their search but I'll switch away from that the second that it becomes unbearable to use. I've done stints on DDG and I'll be perfectly happy using that whenever Google search really starts going south.

That was Stockton street, which stretches from Market Street (heart of downtown) to Pier 39 (heart of tourist district).

Three blocks north of Union Square is a tunnel that burrows under China Town/Nob Hill and emerges in North Beach. It's a pretty critical artery for locals as it flattens the route between market st and the northern coastline of the city.

There was a push to permanently close Stockton St in favor of making it pedestrian only, but as Stockton St (and the tunnel) is the (real) gateway to the heart of China Town, that movement was squashed pretty quickly.

That said, I would love to see maybe 10% of the streets north of Market street turned into pedestrian-only, or reduced to one lane, converting the parking on both sides of the street into wider sidewalks and more trees. As dense as Nob/Russian Hill is, only one lane is really needed to service most of these neighborhoods. Retailers claim they need the parking but only once in five years have I driven to a market in Nob Hill.

Right. Buybacks don't raise the shareprice relative to doing nothing, but they do raise the shareprice relative to paying dividends. Maybe it would be better to describe this as "dividends lower the share price".

> What’s wrong with Perl?

Looking at their central axioms, I would guess:

1 - simple software breaks in simple ways: weak, dynamic typing means a lot of problems trivially solved by static and/or strong typing.

2 - simple tools: no idea. I remember cpan being fairly great and perldoc being excellent.

3 - one correct way to do thing versus perl's TMTOWTDI central theme

4 - dependencies are part of the system: lots of CPAN modules, so there's a tendency to import black box modules instead of writing it yourself and retaining ownership.

5 - standards are useful but full of cruft: perl has a much larger standard lib than, say, Go or Python as far as I understand.

As to why it would be what's wrong with git: after a cursory glance at the git repo (0), I would guess the problem is that it still contains .perl files?
