No, it doesn't. But with Microsoft, Google and Amazon all relying on Chromium, there's going to be massive pull in that direction no matter what. Together, these three companies will now, basically, control the desktop OS market, the browser market and the cloud market. I'm not exactly giddy with excitement about that.
That is interesting.

I assumed that innerHTML must have been wrong because textContent works in all the browsers I have tried it on whereas innerHTML doesn't work. A cursory search textContent vs innerHTML seemed to suggest textContent was the correct way.

It looks like it isn't a simple case of IE11 (I haven't had a chance to test on 9 & 10 yet) being correct and the others being incorrect. Thanks for the info.

> Hand-me-downs were acceptable clothes. A 983 square foot house was an acceptable size. Kids sharing a room was an acceptable arrangement. A tire swing was acceptable entertainment. Few of those things are acceptable baselines for most households today.

Hand-me-downs, room sharing, tire swing (or sidewalk games in our case), these are all features of my family's life now (as a fairly typical dual-professional household). My house is 1500 square feet, more than the typical for the 1950s, but the big difference is what that 1500 square feet cost to purchase and costs to maintain today.

> The average new home now has more bathrooms than occupants.

Most of the population lives in existing homes, not new homes. Housing cost these days is far more directly correlated to land value, which is itself correlated to location and access to "public" amenities like safety, transit corridors, "good" schools, job opportunities etc.

I'd wager that most people are actually getting by using many of the same strategies employed in the 1950s, and that people chased status by spending just as much back then as today, but that the game has changed dramatically due to a number of secular changes in the economy. These include effects of technology and automation, and globalization, which while they have increased the size of the global pie, have also reduced labor's (AKA most people) share of that pie.
According to a recent research these are the few things that makes attrition rate high :

Just a reminder that Esptein still didn't kill himself.
Totally agree with your conclusion. I remember generating a JavaScript array in a server-side loop, and the code wouldn't work (at first) because of a trailing comma on the last element before a bracket. Firefox would ignore it, but IE 8 wanted a perfect no-extraneous-commas code.
My impression is that people are holding on for dear life, just in case its value would increase. To me crypto value seems extremely volatile, there is a perceived high risk associated with owning it. Today it is valuable, tomorrow it is zero. I believe it needs to become a little bit more mature before it is mainstream enough for everyone to relax and use it the way it is intended.

It’s not just those near it - places between the well and the dump site, near the rivers by the dump, near the truck stops, eating the crops the brine has contaminated, using the recycled pipes, washing workers clothes, living in the worker’s houses. If you were designing a dispersal system, you’d be hard placed to make a better one short of perhaps aerial spraying.
Not in the literal sense but I think it's important to look at it metaphorically.

People kind of misinterpret Moore's Law as this statement about the speed of computers but he wasn't talking about that in the paper [0]. He was talking about cost of manufacturing - and implicitly, the rate of innovation (which is throttled by how fast you can bring something to market).

Basically Moore's Law was an observation that implied that more complex electronics could be made cheaper as time went on.

And in today's marketplace, we shouldn't just look at node size and Moore's law as the complexity bottleneck, because it isn't. Moore himself talks about it in the paper.

As an example, Moore pointed out that at the time, "packaging costs so far exceed the cost of the semiconductor structure itself that there is no incentive to improve yields." Today this isn't true anymore - and while Zen2 did see a node shrink, the great innovation that made a more complex device cheaper was the move to chiplets, resulting in greater yields.

As well, Moore prophesied the rise of EDA tools and what would become hardware description languages.

"The total cost of making a particular system function must be minimized. To do so, we could amortize the engineering over several identical items, or evolve flexible techniques for the engineering of large functions so that no disproportionate expense need be borne by a particular array. Perhaps newly devised design automation procedures could translate from logic diagram to technological realization without any special engineering."

What I'm getting at in this ramble is that looking at node size and "Moore's Law" is only a small slice of the pie and not particularly interesting outside of material science. Looking back at what Moore actually wrote - his law is not "dead" outside of the advance of node size, but his advice on the innovation of every other aspect of design is moving at breakneck speed and it's very exciting.

I feel like this is where hyperthreading is finally starting to bite Intel in the rear. Cloud providers have been selling "VCPUs" that aren't actual cores. I best most customers don't even know what they're buying. Even if ARM cores are slower (and they don't really have to be), they're still going to be faster than hyperthreads.
The best way to learn concepts is to first forget them and then reconstruct the facts based on previous knowledge. Spaced repetition actively hinders this process by trying to ensure that you don't forget. It is great for shallow knowledge like language, but if you are doing it for maths or programming you are just hurting yourself. That type of training is how you get people who can talk like a champ but can't even solve fizzbuzz.

> An In-P microprocessor as complex as a 6502 should be able to clock upwards of 80 GHz and could run with a fully populated address space of static RAM on the chip and be able to react to fast events in real time like nothing else.

> Such a chip would replace 16 5GHz cores for more mainstream computation,...

80 GHz 6502 would be about as fast as... 1 GHz x86 in integer operations, and even that is being generous.

Floating point would be several orders of magnitude worse than even that.

Typical X86 can do 64 8-bit SIMD operations per clock, 2x AVX2 instructions retired in a single clock cycle. At over 4 GHz.

But it'd sure be a beast in real-time applications... assuming signal integrity is a solvable problem.

Because the Chromium monoculture has allowed Google to dominate the web standards process. They can veto any feature or force one through by shipping it and pushing sites to depend on it (including their own).

There is an army of Googlers whose job it is to keep tacking on new web standards. And Google will implement the features before proposing the specs, so their competitors—well, now it's just Mozilla and Apple, I guess—are kept playing constant catch-up. Meanwhile, anything that comes from outside of Google will have to brave the same army trying to smother it in committee.

Just ask anyone who's dealt with web standards politics from outside of Google. It isn't fun anymore.

(Oh, yeah, and because there's essentially no accountability now, plenty of these new features rushed through the door are buggy and introduce security holes. It's like IE all over again.)
Sure it's debatable. But at the end of the day I really don't care about copyright anymore. The concept can basically die in a dumpster fire as far as I'm concerned

Yes, that's the difference between 99.9% and 100%. Cloudflare cited traffic percentages which match what most experienced site operators have seen, with a much higher percentage of malicious activity using Tor than most other networks and no easy way to have per-user reputation (that was the impetus for developing the “Privacy Pass” feature).

Here's what they said at the time, which also has some answers for your question about non-DoS problems:

> On the other hand, anonymity is also something that provides value to online attackers. Based on data across the CloudFlare network, 94% of requests that we see across the Tor network are per se malicious. That doesn’t mean they are visiting controversial content, but instead that they are automated requests designed to harm our customers. A large percentage of the comment spam, vulnerability scanning, ad click fraud, content scraping, and login scanning comes via the Tor network. To give you some sense, based on data from Project Honey Pot, 18% of global email spam, or approximately 6.5 trillion unwanted messages per year, begin with an automated bot harvesting email addresses via the Tor network.

It doesn't look like that project has been discussed on HN before. One of you should definitely post it!

Not my hack but - when I was in college, there were two computer labs: one for CS majors and one for humanities majors who just wanted to type research papers. The CS computers booted to a DOS prompt and you could run anything on them, but the “writing lab” computers were configured to boot straight to wordperfect, and the exit command was password protected. A friend realized that you could hit F12 to get a shell (a DOS prompt), use that to look up the exit password, and exit out of WP on the writing lab computers.
We dismiss the ideas because they contradict our priors. Knowing that someone else holds them adds no new information. Strong objective evidence is rarely available. But seeing that an opinion is correlated with superior skill will tend to make people take it seriously. (Sometimes too seriously! Why does everybody cargo cult Google?)

For example, several Amazonians have joined my team and been horrified at the lack of central tracking and control over sprint tasks and productivity KPIs. I like my autonomy. I like not taking orders from JIRA. There is a reason I don’t work at Amazon. My team already ships, and well. So I am not excited about their campaigns.

I am not a fan of test coverage as a KPI. I’ve seen lots of high-coverage but meaningless and brittle test suites, full of copy-paste and implementation-coupled mock expectations, do more harm than good. At the same time, I find that covering increasingly obscure “if err != nil { return nil, err }” blocks is a waste of time, so my stats aren’t always high. But I have seen SREs I deeply respect, people who have stopped major train wrecks and held insightful technical conversations, decide to use it in their recommendations. Because of that, I’m grudgingly coming around. That’s so much more convincing than the Sr. Staff and above saying “let’s set a minimum coverage threshold for the org [because KPIs and standards are inherently good].” That just reads as careerist sucking up to management. It's people who haven't touched code in 10 years and don't even know the language we use, claiming their judgement is so good that they don't even need to look at a situation to decide how it should be handled. They are the wrong messengers, even for a right idea.
Agreed. I’ve been working a lot with Swarm over the past year and while it’s not perfect, it has been an overall great experience. I really enjoy the simplicity and tight integration with Docker, and I feel that the ecosystem around Swarm was just starting to mature. Hopefully it remains an option for a while.

Also, I haven’t needed to integrate something like Vault because the Swarm secrets feature covers my use case perfectly.

"Hacker" "news" has such high quality discussions now! When did this start happening?
It's very important to note that in this context the notion of "value" is weighted according to wealth. Feeding a starving kid creates zero "value" because the kid has no money. Owning a house in an area where other people are doing great things creates loads of "value," because those other people do have money.

Wealth is the value you build for wealth-weighted-people, not the value you build for people.

So... you are both correct and not, which is probably why you're getting downvoted.

Is much of the current tech overengineered? Yes, it definitely is.

HTTPS on it's own - having TLS and a certificate - is not. It never was. But with stapling, CORS, X-XSS, and the rest, it becomes a beast. Those are becoming requirements, and they are making things _very_ complicated.

I hear you, and I tend to agree on many things. Serial ports were gloriously simple whereas USB3 is a nightmare on every level. VGA was beautiful in it's simplicity, HDMI 1.4 with Ethernet included is certainly too much.

mta-sts is probably the worst idea that could have been added to email, by relying on HTTPS requests.

My personal take on this: use all of them responsibly. Use HTTPS, but don't make it exclusive, let the user make the choice: keep HTTP as well. Leave CORS, STS, Referrer Policy, etc out.

Bangs are a common term across DDG users, and can be shared references, personal shortcuts not so much. It's a bit like language as a common understanding rather than individual headspaces. In a sense, bangs are social.

How useful that is or isn't I don't know entirely, but bang-based search seems to be a distinctive class of activity, and gives rise to its own forms of communication and discovery. I've learned (and shared) new sites/services through bangs.
Radio active material can anecdotally give you super powers, but usually it just gives you cancer. It's generally a good idea to avoid it, because the chances that you don't wake up being able to fly are too high.

The same goes for Buzzfeed in my opinion. Yes, there may be something of value every other year, but generally it's shit. You don't want to regularly ingest shit on the off chance that there's some delicious candy in there somewhere.

As a former UI designer, this is a gross misrepresentation of what happened with Sketch (and to a lesser extent, Figma):

> Consider, for example, the way the program Sketch has eaten into Adobe’s market share, after duplicating many of the best features from several of Adobe’s products, perhaps most notably Illustrator. And consider the way Figma is now eating into both Sketch and Illustrator’s market share. Both Sketch and Figma have done this without needing to make an enormous investment in research. That’s a big advantage they have over Adobe.

Leading up to the time that Sketch emerged, UI designers were complaining constantly to Adobe to provide features to support their work. All of us were using a tiny subset of Photoshop's features crammed into the corner (the vector editing features). Remember Adobe actively killed Fireworks[0] the exact product specialized for UI designers that should have prevented Sketch from emerging. I consider Adobe leaving an opening big enough for Sketch to emerge one of the biggest mistakes I've ever seen a tech company make. It was plainly obvious that there was product category there, so many people were talking about it that to me as a designer it was deafening.

Not to mention, if you were paying the slightest bit of attention to graphical apps for artists, you would have noticed Acorn[1], a Photoshop competitor released in 2007, three years before Sketch, maintained by one person, based on the support Apple was aggressively adding to AppKit for this type of application. If you were an expert in this market and you didn't realize that someone was going to use that same toolkit to make a UI tool, which so many people were asking for, I don't know what to tell you. And of course that's exactly what happened with Sketch.

This isn't a story about Sketch copying Adobe products, it's a story about Adobe's product leadership making a series of mistakes that left a gap in the market.
