Ah, the old save the kids argument. You think kids are that stupid? You really underestimate them. I was watching these cartoons when I was young and I didn't become a racist piece of shit.

Is it specifically anti-Firefox or anti-not-Edge?

Is there a "Still using Chrome?" message, or a "Still using IE?".

I don't really understand the reason for going after Firefox specifically. Going after Chrome would make more sense to me. Chrome has the biggest user base, and now that Edge is based on Chromium, they can get users to switch without having them change their habits too much.
You use cron because it does one thing and that's the thing you want to do, so it's easier to use what exists than to reinvent the wheel.

The flaw in systemd is that it doesn't do one thing, it tries to do everything. Instead of launching tasks with cron, logging errors with syslog, preventing parallel execution with flock etc., systemd tries to do all of that. Worse, it assumes that once you use it for anything you'll use it for everything, so if any piece of it is unsuitable it's not as easy to swap out only the unsuitable bit for an alternative.

The result is that the things it was specifically designed for are easy, but they were pretty easy already, meanwhile the things it wasn't specifically designed for become significantly more convoluted than they used to be.

The most common reason people leave companies is not compensation. It's usually about relationships, primarily with the boss but also coworkers. I'm on the spectrum, so I function a bit like an automaton which places little value on the social aspects of work, but most people aren't like that. This is how "on the spectrum" I am. One time I was on a team that did a team building exercise where we went to a local charity for sick kids and performed manual labor all day. I calculated how much that cost the company and made a presentation to my boss about how much more we could have done by hiring minimum wage workers to perform the same manual labor for the same $ they paid us. I genuinely did not understand that was a weird/socially unacceptable thing to do. Anyways, I'm digressing a bit. Most people were more interested in how it made them feel to do something nice for sick kids. I didn't understand that, I thought the goal was to perform the maximum amount of good for the kids. And taken one step further, people like working for the type of company that would let them do things like help sick kids instead of their normal work tasks. For the social people on the team, it's all about the feels.

> I imagine if someone dev-nulled all telemetry but still had it running you'd consider it a privacy risk because your private data was exfiltrated

Yes, this is my perspective. There are two aspects to privacy.

The first is data collection. When data is collected about me or my use of my machines, that is a privacy intrusion regardless of what is done with that data post-collection.

The second is what is done with the data post-collection. In my view, the impact of this is secondary -- how the data is handled post-collection will inform whether or not I'm willing to give consent for its collection in the first place.

Ask HN: Will you retire after 1000 weeks (~19 years)? Or work another 1000 week?
I found that most Engineers can't think in weeks, and they shocked to learn that after 1000 weeks (~19 years) they will be almost 20 years older, and they might not live another 1000 weeks after or be able to perform well after the next 1000 weeks.

It's ok to contribute 10 weeks for another framework or pet project, right? However math tell if you do it 100 times 100% focused on one by one thing, you might run out of time and wont be able to cash out on your expectation.

It's interesting to think about what multiple dispatch abuse would be.

As far as I know, implementation inheritance can be misapplied when you try too hard to use the language's type system to capture some domain-specific model. e.g. you're dealing with multiple kinds of entities, and they all have a `name`, so you decide that all of the classes should inherit from `class Named`, because they have that in common with each other.

Well, there's lots of different taxonomies possible for your entities, probably. And single implementation inheritance lets you express just one taxonomy. Interfaces and multiple inheritance aim to allow multiple co-existing taxonomies, but I can't really explain the ways in which its misapplied.

I agree that there are some clear situations for implementation inheritance, so it seems like a useful pattern to be able to support. I think the discussion is whether it should be a key design principle, and built into the language design, or if the language design should be more general, so that implementation inheritance can be built on top of that.

> I am using Firefox because it doesn't belong to anyone.

Others mentioned are in a different league, but even firefox is mostly developed for an organization, that seems to be pushing to enter the service industry.

Have you looked how many connections firefox makes without even opening a page? I tried to silence it, and it was a PITA - ended up using a firewall.

I'd donate to firefox development, like 3, maybe 4 digit numbers, but AFAICT they only accept donations to Mozilla, and don't let you specify types of activities you would like to support.

> I don't think YAML is the least ergonomic configuration format available. It has comments, unlike JSON.

This is because JSON is not a configuration format but a machine-to-machine data exchange format. Using it for configurations is using it for something it was not designed to do.

And comments were left out of JSON on purpose:

> Comments were purposefully excluded from JSON. In 2012, Douglas Crockford described his design decision thus: "I removed comments from JSON because I saw people were using them to hold parsing directives, a practice which would have destroyed interoperability." [27]

React and Redux are for apps. If you can do it with HTML/CSS, you absolutely should.

React/Redux are a replacement for what people used to do with jquery or plain JS. They're not for display; they're for complex interaction of the kind that used to require a native user interface (Java Swing, Gtk, Win32, etc). Javascript is a mess, and the DOM is a mess; React makes that slightly less awful. (Redux is an extension to React to help manage global state; again, it's compensating for just how bad Javascript is.)

Bonus: React encourages the use of JSX, a language that makes a lot of behavior look as if you were writing it directly in HTML. You don't need React to use JSX, and you don't need JSX to use React, but they do dovetail nicely.

You can write in plain JS/jquery if you want. Plenty of people do. React is a framework to make that a bit easier; that's all.
Curious how you have handled some of these challenges:

1. What do you do to avoid massive view controllers? I have found that a lot of iOS apps I have worked on end up having the view controller be responsible for doing everything from fetching data from an API to setting the corner radius on some component. This leads to view controllers being really big and not unit tested.

2. Do you do anything to explicitly keep your application state in one place? I find that state in iOS apps ends up being scattered between a data store, singletons and view controllers. This is a lot more cumberesome than something like Redux where state is just in a single store.

3. I am pretty excited about SwiftUI as it addresses a lot of these pain points and brings iOS development into a more modern era similar to React. What is your opinion of SwiftUI? Are you using it on your apps? If so, what have been the challenges of introducing it into existing apps? If not, why not?
How easy is it to style these components? I've worked at a lot of IoT companies that run full-blown android just to get access to the UI libraries on android.

You shouldn't need a 4core CPU with 2GB of RAM to get reasonably clean user interfaces working.

From that Facebook article: Flux eschews MVC in favor of a unidirectional data flow.

This is so incorrect. MVC doesn't imply two-way data binding. The whole Flux architecture was based on a misunderstanding of MVC, and is therefore questionable.

Most UI frameworks, including iOS, ASP.NET Core, JSP and JSF (Java based frameworks), Ruby on Rails, and Django (Python) are all based on MVC.

Why is it that MVC works for all these other frameworks, but doesn't for React? The answer is that MVC does in fact work for React. React itself originally used the tagline "React is the V in MVC". Flux/Redux introduce needless complexity and unnecessary boilerplate. There are MVC libs that make React much easier to use.

> I think the largest myth that exists in the react world is the need to have a global state for everything.

Client state management is all global no matter the strategy. ie Component level stores are effectively namespacing a global space with more cruft.

When you get into sets of components, the convenient store gets ugly/brittle no matter how you do it, so might as well keep it in a single store.
The problem is he is using the term "wider" which always refers to a change in the color range and not brightness. I agree gamut represents a 3D space.
Agreed that the generated sample is superior to similar outputs from GPT-2.
Looking at the additional samples in the publication, my first thought is that the model cannot easily stray from or modify the context. Once a fact is stored within the compressed memory, it seems the model cannot easily generate sentences contradictory to that fact.
This is problematic because frequent changes to relational information (e.g. the location a character is standing) is fundamental to story telling.

The false dichotomy of teaching and research
The Early History of Smalltalk [audio]
Don't mean to nit, just curious about meaning: Did you mean "culture should be emergent"?

Culture has this really interesting property. It's really the cumulative effect of all the decisions and actions taken by every member of the culture. However -- here's the fun part -- the history of those decisions and actions informs future decisions and actions. It becomes somewhat cyclic and self-reinforcing. And because of this it's very difficult to change once it settles in.

So yes, sometimes upon high will attempt to effect cultural change by repetitious reinforcement. And yes, this looks like propaganda because it is. But that does not necessarily mean it is negative or ill-willed. Sometimes a culture really does need to change -- I'm sure Uber saw a lot of "propaganda" when they started getting flak over their sexist workplace...

I wish the downvotes would be accompanied with comments but I don't think your stance is completely unreasonable.

Relating the question of species-ness to the sorities paradox is more than tangential - quite insightful, in fact.
