Consider when you are visiting a page where you have been before, and you have received some identifier token.

Using cookies, the browser automatically sends the identifier token along with the initial request, and the server can serve the initial response based on your identity.

With localStorage, the browser initially send an anonymous request to the server, the server then have to return some bootstrap JavaScript which reads the identity token from localStorage and then passes it to the server in the next request, and only then the server can respond based on your identity.

By any reasonable definition, the second approach is more complex, not to mention slower and more fragile.

The same measures have wildly different levels of impact based on how deep the virus has gotten into the community.
Humans have been using physical and mental systems to manage complexity for eons, I simply can't understand this argument. React doesn't automatically fix spaghetti code if you don't know how to organize a platform-sized code base efficiently in the first place.

Have you seen any attempts to actually put cause and effect together for stay-at-home orders and number of deaths? The only attempt I've seen to quantify it found no statistical connection between the two, but high connection between population density and deaths.
That’s an interesting point, given modern animal farming practices. 97% of cows are going to come from a feedlot, where they’ll be fed grain (corn). The special part of their stomach that allows them to extract more nutrients from certain plant foods compared to humans, the rumen, is “made” for grass. When switching over to grain, acid builds up in the rumen which can lead to acidosis, so we then have to pump the cows full of antacids to keep them placated while we continue to fatten them up for slaughter.

it's ok if we don't follow the rules perfectly and consistently for sufficient risk reduciton. but people absolutely flouting them is problematic, and the majority of that is likely a reaction to the overhyping in the first place.

Twitter's new design is pretty fast. Sure, it does a lot less than Facebook but it's using similar modern SPA tech.

Facebook is still pretty slow even on a Ryzen 3900x with 32GB of 3600mhz RAM. It's a lot better than it used to be though.
That site is so much easier to read when you turn off: text-align: justify.
I think this is the hardest part. You would have to pay the same price for the debt as the unethical collectors and then make less off of it than the unethical ones probably putting you in the red :/
I find it's not useful to have comments in code that you are actively working on since they quickly get out of date. They are best added when one finishes work on a block of code.
I learned mis-en-place from a bike mechanic, and 20 'ingredients' isn't even table stakes for a mechanic (unless you count each wrench or socket set as 1 tool, and then we're close).

There were only two 'adults' in that shop - the manager, and Bob, the senior mechanic, and I'm pretty sure both of them were maybe 28. The rest of us were college age. He was constantly irritated that we couldn't seem to keep our shit organized. Most of the time this was some muttering or making little jokes at our expense.

Until you wanted to borrow one of his tools because you couldn't find yours, then you got an earful.

I was pretty sure I didn't like Bob at first, but now I'm not so sure.

I hope we someday enter a period of reform where our field begins to apply more rigor to our process. We have the tools to make a fast, sleek web. The process is very, very broken from an engineering perspective. The money seems to never stop, which is why businesses can burn through developers without too much regard to whether they are doing the right things. Maybe that can't be fixed, because the people in charge are going to keep the status quo going if the money is coming in and they're made to look good. Optimization is a risk that companies of even modest size find to be too great.

Or perhaps people involved in a revamp/redesign/unification should be well compensated to the point where they are unlikely to leave in the middle of a multi-year project. I have a feeling based on my experience that a lot of these bad rebuilds are a result of too many engineers and designers coming and going.

As a few people have said, the stock market isn't necessarily the indicator of the entire economy. One other thing to keep in mind is that the Dow Jones Industrial Average has 30 companies in it. And the S&P 500 has, well, 500 companies. The point is that you are looking at composite indexes of companies on the market, not the entire market. And those companies have access to, what many consider, the largest weapon to help them rise over the next few year. Very very very inexpensive debt through a near 0% interest rate from the Federal Reserve (and other international reserves). Many of the large companies in the world will come out of this stronger than ever. Cheap debt is one of their favorite things to have.

Small business will go under. Keep in mind that a lot of those small businesses were going to go under anyway, this is just speeding up the process and potentially keeping them from getting more debt before they go under.

As for unemployment, many economists believed that our unemployment rate for the last few years was actually too low. Now, it is probably too high. Though we only have a few weeks of that unemployment to measure and this isn't the time for predictions. We need to stabilize the economy then look at the stability of unemployment. An economy this large takes some time to predict. Economists generally don't start making trends with only a few weeks of data.

I have lived through a few of these downturns. This is not the first by any means (2008/2009, 2000, 1987, the 1970's). My historical guess is in 18 months you are going to see unemployment much lower, the stock market will hit new highs, and people will be generally extremely afraid of what happens when the Fed starts to itch to raise the interest rate above 0%. Whichever party is in office in the US will take a lot of credit for "fixing everything" and blame any negative effects (like raising the interest rate, homelessness, income gaps and disparity) on the other party. And a lot of people will think things are wonderful.

The question really is, are they wonderful at that point?

Answers:

1. ~1.9kg fully loaded with batteries, WiFi card and SSD.

2. Currently you need to rebuild the firmware, which is "make" and then "flash.sh", but it's absolutely feasible to make a nice keymap editor.

3. The connector itself is generic and cheap (SO-DIMM), you stick a bare PCB in it (card edge). There's currently no other SoM with this pinout, though. We'll work to change that.

4. Haven't run into issues yet, and opened and closed mine many many times.

5. Simplicity.

6. Type-A is still much more common. The next version could have Type-C or a mix possibly.

7. Totally hackable. The sources are already in our Git / on GitHub but I'll post an article about this during the campaign.
The fact that patent trolls are scummy doesn't exonerate other scummy behavior. As an example, we wouldn't accept violent protests as an appropriate counter to other people's violent protests.

In this particular case, where the messages are borderline propaganda, that is unacceptable, especially when they could have kept the same exact content but added an abstract of the new guidance and greatly improved the quality of their article by actually providing material support for their point of view.

Convenient metaphors of pig fighting are misleading and inaccurate. They promote a mentality of action based on anger rather than effectiveness. To avoid metaphors and give a concrete example of not lowering one's self to scummy tactics, you have only to look to the non-violent civil rights movements that have prevailed in the last hundred years.

You also assume the "dirty pig" or scummy tactics are directed at the "opposition". They are not. When the EFF actually fights these battles, say in court, they cannot refer to general platitudes and content-less rhetoric, they must use reasoned arguments. Their scummy tactics in this article are directed at those they seek to support them!
> Dr. John Ioannidis released the result of his Serology Study in California:

That study showed that the seroprevalance in Santa Clara was less than 2%. That directly contradicts your earlier suggestion that 20% of the country was infected.

https://statmodeling.stat.columbia.edu/2020/04/19/fatal-flaw...

The seroprevalence number was also approximately the same size as the confidence interval on the false positive rate of the antibody test they were using, which means the confidence interval for the denominator of the fatality rate goes all the way down to zero, i.e. the fatality rate estimates are complete garbage.

I hear you, I'm sure some streamers got to where they are with sketchy policies but for the most part the streamers I follow are either Dota 2 pros that have spent years of their life getting good at the game and also stream very consistently (almost everyday) while still being entertaining for 3-5 hours at a time, they also have dedicated editors which will do shorter clips with the occasional meme on youtube if you weren't able to catch the stream live.

For programming related streams I follow Jonathan Blow because he has a unique viewpoint around programming and also because I trust him because he's shipped multiple succesful games.

Be succesful IRL seems to be one of the best ways to get a popular stream.

I actually made the site during an internal Twitch hackathon about 2 years ago. The site shows the current number of viewers on the site.
Fascinating.

Accuracy on MNIST is a lousy 82.9%, 86.5%, and 87.4% for the networks with 400, 1000, and 6400 neurons, respectively -- well below the accuracy achieved by even LeNet-5, a landmark historical CNN architecture from the 1990's.[a]

Nonetheless, I get excited when I come across research like this. I get excited about the possibility of building devices with internal physical/chemical network/tree structures capable of learning in response to stimuli, e.g., by settling into low-energy states that "best model" such stimuli or via some other mechanism.

This is the kind of research, I think, that could eventually lead to AI systems operating with orders of magnitude more energy, space, time, and cost efficiency than current systems implemented as software running on GPU, TPU, and similar devices.

This discussion comes up almost every time U-3 (official unemployment) is reported.

There's a reason why the USA keeps track of U1, U2, U3, U4, U5, and U6. Because everyone has their own opinion about who, or what, should count as unemployed.

It sounds like the number YOU are looking for is U4, which is U3 + Discouraged Workers.

--------

U3 is reported because U3 has been reported for the past 100 years. If we want to compare today's unemployment with the unemployment in 1930s, we use U3.

How do you deal with this strategy? A lot of hyper partisans and conspiracy theorists hammer you with a ton of “facts” that sometimes are correct but most of the times with half truths, misinterpretations and a pinch of things that are plain wrong. If you are lucky you can refute immediately but often it takes a lot of time and effort to research the topic. In a debate or discussion with friends I often feel stupid saying things like “I don’t believe the stuff you are saying but I need to research things for a while before I can tell you what exactly is wrong.” .

The current pandemic is a good example. The “Plandemic” movie is making its rounds in the neighborhood but all I can say is that I can’t imagine that thousands of researchers around the world are part of a conspiracy. It just doesn’t make sense.

However if you have architects that design software properly in the U.S. and pass those specifications to outsourced staff, then it's akin to a NYT writer dictating his notes to be typed in and proofread by someone overseas.

My point being; there's an efficient way to utilize cheap labor.
It sounds to me like you may have never worked in a codebase with thousands of JS files. On a major application, organizing code in vanilla JS is all but impossible. I agree it's better for a very small case, and I agree react slows things down, but that's a worthy trade-off for having organized, legible code.

Perhaps. That would imply several times more rapists and murderers per capita than Germany (to match the 10x incarceration rate).

Still, why call it "land of the free" then? "Land of the most rapists and murderers per capita (or close)" or "Broken society" sounds more apt!

But I'm pretty sure the BS "marijuana laws" and other such incarceration reasons that wouldn't even exist in Germany, are a big part (at least until recently, not sure today) of the disparity.

The idea that politicians wanted to lockdown and trash the economy is laughable. Even now politicians are eager to open up, even though plenty of states are still in the exponential growth stage.
I think that’s only valid if there is actually a serious danger to being a police officer. While officers really like to play up their dangerous job, it’s actually quite safe, because it turns out most people know that killing a cop is a stupid thing to do for a near infinite number of reasons.

A clear example is the common “split second decisions” scenario. No one is complaining about shoutouts with drug dealers. They’re complaining about a kid getting shot by a cop repeatedly trying (and failing) to kill the tied down family dog. They’re complaining about correctional officers leaving people in a room with their own feces for a week. Those are not split-second decisions, yet they got QI. Using that trope is exactly like using child abuse as an excuse to curtail privacy and other liberties: it’s a ploy to paint opponents as morally reprehensible, because who could support that?

In fairness, some version of QI is, in my opinion, necessary; we’ve just gone way too far towards no consequences for egregious behavior.

Nothing about that scenario refutes "cops need guns". Its a violent society; the police are under attack in some places.

So now we should break up any company that has a 30% share of a share of the market? The definition of a “monopoly” is not 30% even if you define the “market” as online retail not retail in general.
