These new measures are meant to force to change lifestyle and be more conscious of the risks.
Daily life has changed in that you stay at home, work at home,think twice every time you need to go to the store: do I really need it? It's a possible vehicle of contagion, do I really need to get out?
Being stuck at home is not easy but neighter as easy nor as terrible as some would think: it simply has to be done.
> You probably should not encourage lay users to disable CAs they aren't using, it's like those plastic "child safety" plug inserts in the UK - kids already can't actually do the thing the insert pretends to prevent, safety shutters mandated by law in your power sockets keep tiny fingers out of the live power - but the plastic insert is exactly the perfect shape for a kid to defeat the safety protection and electrocute themselves.

Both Next.js and Gatsby are great to work with. If you're looking to stay in the JS ecosystem, you'll be happy with either choice.

As for which is "easier", it comes down to your skill set and preference. If you're familiar with GraphQL and enjoy it, you might prefer to use Gatsby. You can use GQL to fetch your Markdown files. If you're not as familiar with GQL, then it could be seen as a barrier to entry.

The biggest advantage Gatsby has over Next.js is its plugin system. For example, you're a simple config change away from an RSS feed -> https://www.gatsbyjs.org/packages/gatsby-plugin-feed/

The biggest advantage Next.js has over Gatsby is that it's a hybrid React framework. You can mix SSG and SSR together in the same application. This could be very beneficial if you want your main marketing site, SaaS app, and documentation to all live in the same project.

A great example of MDX (Markdown) + Next.js for production docs would be the StaticKit site -> https://github.com/unstacked/statickit-site

- When I created my Robinhood account, none of those brokerages had commission free trades. Also, what about commissions and exercise fees associated with stock options? Also free? I doubt it.

- Still today, the UX of all of those other apps/websites (that I've used) is horribly dated, clunky, and slow. Robinhood is amazing to use.

- Robinhood has a Cash Management account that pays me 1.35% interest on all my non-invested cash. None of these other services come close to competing with this.

- Robinhood started a progressive movement with the mission of making stock trading more accessible to the lower/middle class. I love this company and brand. Schwab is just another faceless corporation who only offers free commissions because they had to to stay relevant.
After I noticed the change I went to the website to see what it was about and this is exactly what happened.

Amazon probably doesn't want to radically rock the boat when it comes to Whole Foods at the moment. It is an established well-working business, and they don't want another wave of "WF went to shit after Amazon bought it out, just look at all those changes they've implemented!", given that Amazon's reputation has already been kinda questionable in the public eye recently.
That's common in the small-group market too: the insurers have a network they advertise, and then smaller subset networks they offer for a lower price. So, I know it's true that you have to be careful not to accidentally subscribe for the small-network version. It's definitely not the case in Illinois that the large-network plans aren't available on the exchange; they are. Couldn't tell you about California or New York, though.
Trust was my biggest objection to it... There was no reasonable/complete Linux implementation available, and at that point Microsoft had never supported a technology (other than office) outside of Windows for more than 2 releases that I could recall.

In general, I really liked the package model, it's close to what I'd hoped Flash would become after Adobe acquisition. I do like React a bit better than Silverlight, but the tech and usability wasn't really bad, just more of a risk aversion for myself.

If MS had created an open-source client implementation that was patent unencumbered that other browsers could have integrated, with open tooling, I think it would have gone better. Can't speak to this implementation. For the Blazor efforts, payload size just feels excessively huge to me, and server-side renders feel as laggy as the original ASP.Net lifecycle round trip.

I'd probably be more inclined to work towards tooling for other languages that have a lighter wasm target (Rust in particular) and either web canvas or something like yew. All of that said, I'm pretty happy with React these days.
But the internet rumour was right, then? Man, critical thinking really is the first thing to die under pressure.

RFID are not good enough for this application. In the end you'd still need to take the items out of the bag to scan them, as RFID blocking tech is real, and RFID at a distance doesn't work that well - especially with a lot of different RFID chips involved.

It's also very wasteful and time consuming. You'd need to chip every item in the store, which is a LOT of human labor (expensive), plus those chips are essentially throwaway which adds ongoing marginal cost - adds up over time.

Amazon's solution is more expensive to spin up, but its a fixed cost. Vastly more efficient long term and vastly more scalable than RFID.

NASA Administrator Statement on Coronavirus Situation
Biggest problem with RFID is getting suppliers to add the tags to their products. After all you’re asking them to make a big change to their manufacturing processes.

Some companies have managed this, Decathlon is a good example, but normally manage it by owning almost their entire supply chain. Which means they benefit from extreme integration.

Basically anything that means universally modify packaging is usually a no-go for most retailers, it’s amazing we’ve even managed to standardise on barcodes.
I mean, you do it a single time and your email is registered. Just like square. This is standard practice at this point and the inconvenience factor is eliminated pretty much immediately.
This is the best reason. Knowing your business systems will simply come back with the power, and having that tested on a daily basis will quickly put everyone at ease.

And where is the competition? Is there anyone at all who can provide something like this?

One of the big tech companies in the 80's demonstrated this. I think it was either IBM or AT&T/Bellcore. Essentially, it was just a scanner at the door that read RFID tags in each item, and your credit card.

This was back when RFID was still oh-holy-shit technology.

The reason I think AT&T might have been involved is that the video demonstration was very similar to AT&T "You will" series of commercials that aired around the same time.

The human lifespan is too short to distinguish between luck and skill for most low frequency traders. You'd have to see dozens of potential pandemics as severe as this one to know if you were "right". But it's empirically true that the average active trader underperforms the market. I build short-term trading strategies at my day job, but at home I just buy and hold some boring vanilla index funds. One nice thing about higher-frequency trading is that you have enough statistical power to quickly see lots of "obvious" ideas fail miserably. It teaches humility.

I think it's possible that might have more to do with the fact we use "our native language" more.

I don't know. I work in a place with a lot of q/k programmers, so this isn't a problem I face.

> Yes, and that changes how you access the data. So the evaluation was not fair, as the OP was not using sorted data.

You're mistaken. They did use sorted data, they just didn't know about the presorted file so they also wrote code to sort it.

> is 100b a value or a vector?

It's a vector of three elements (bits: zeros or ones).

> What if "f:42 1 2"? f=42 returns 100b … so under the common "and" definition "(f=42)&(g=69)" should return 000b

Yes that's right, and q/k would return 000b in that case.

> under the "less than" returns 010b?

100b<010b is 010b. We need something that gives us 000b and that operation is "and". Say I have a table that looks like this:

f g k
--------
10 9 kf
20 8 je
42 69 kf
42 0 lk

That's written like this:

t:+`f`g`k!(10 20 42 42;9 8 69 0;`kf`je`kf`lk);

k has tables as a data type. You can think of them as a list of dictionaries if you want:

q)a:`f`g`k!(10;9;`kf);
q)b:`f`g`k!(20;8;`je);
q)c:`f`g`k!(42;69;`kf);
q)d:`f`g`k!(42;0;`lf);
q)(a;b;c;d)

f g k
--------
10 9 kf
20 8 je
42 69 kf
42 0 lf

but I only do this to reinforce the idea this is a basic data type in k.

I can write t.f=42 and get 0011b and t.g=69 and get 0010b. I can do queries like this:

q)select from t where (f=42)&(g=69)

and that's basically the same as this:

t@&:(t.f=42)&(t.g=69)
+`f`g`k!(,42;,69;,`en)

(&: is "where" and not to be confused with &)

And from there it should be clear why we need this "and" behaviour. The question is what should a&b do when they're not bit vectors that would be compatible with this behaviour? 42&69 should return 42 because it's the lesser; 0b&1b returns 0b because it's the lesser... Mathematics is already quite comfortable with the relationship between logical-and and min, so this has a precedent.
