Apple would charge people for a replacement battery just the same.

Sadly there are few in leadership positions willing to step up and do something today to help with a long term problem that’s not obviously going to matter in the very short term.

Climate change and crumbling infrastructure are other examples of this. It’s easy to just ignore it until later... until later is today. CEO focus on the next quarter over longer term impacts is another common issue with this “short term gain for long term pain” mindset.

Real leaders know how to take the flak today to tackle the hard problems of tomorrow. Sadly such leaders are rare.

A true global pandemic was never a question of if, just when. The world had several clear warning shots across the bow (SARS, Ebola, ...)

Maybe we need to give anyone seeking a leadership role the “marshmallow test” (look it up)

It's not like JavaScript, the DOM API, and HTML/SGML/XML don't have a very long history of coexistence, including a native syntax for XML-in-JavaScript (E4X) that was however endorsed by Mozilla only, and since abandoned. JSX stands for "JavaScript XML" btw.

To be fair you can also build C/C++ code on an arduino. Although if you want to move away from the Arduino IDE/language, probably an Arduino is not the best platform for you anyway!
It’s like being upset at people posting photos of your disgusting restrooms on Yelp. A public business has to own its own behavior.

Cuban didn’t call out any businesses by name; it was a completely anonymous survey. But if your business is flouting safety expectations you should expect that eventually some customers are going to call you out publicly, with photos, videos etc as supporting evidence.

Mark Cuban did these businesses a favor, if they listen.
That's nice.

I'm only 23, so I understand that I am young, but looking young is, without a doubt, a serious disadvantage when it comes to people trusting in your ability.

I recently worked on overhauling the reporting system for one of the largest police departments in the US, and every step along the way I was asked who was in charge, how did I enter the workforce so young, how I got an internship while attending high school (I had already graduated college), etc. I even got those types of comments from other employees at companies where I worked full-time. Of course, I don't really have the luxury of getting too offended by it all the time, otherwise I'd be really bitter, but the classic "Oh well you'll be glad you look young when you're older" gets tiring.
I’m a very happy paprika user too. I would like to know more about your Workflows with paprika.
This is a GIF maker, so it creates GIFs from videos and nothing more. Due to the fact that GIFs are over 30 years old, it should not be compared to today's technology, specially video encoding which is very different from a soundless looping image. Having said that, I'm all for something new that will replace a GIF with more modern approach and millions of colors.
I've been doing the data thing for a while. During one of my defenses of R, someone brought up that R was a black hole. That if you programmed in R, you were a user who just filled in the correct function arguments and it just spit out the answer. And that was when my thoughts on machine learning changed.

The vast majority of us are users. We massage the data to be in a certain shape, then feed it through a machine that someone else created. We can change the parameters. We can change the data. But few of us are going to look in to the code of a random forest function.

I've switched tracks and started doing web development. Playing with the hyper parameters in machine learning is no different than changing the feel of a drop down by changing the colors, fonts and other things to fit a certain aesthetic.

I could be wrong, but I have yet to meet anyone that has done anything besides use packages created by others to call themselves data scientists. I think that opens it up to becoming just another tool no different than Excel.
The implication I was trying to draw is that it made sense for them at the time to spend their resources elsewhere.

I happen to love certain niche movie genres, which happens to include "dinner party movies". Feel free to list some recommendations, if you like "people talk in a room" movies.

So I have heard about the idea of OOP being about passing messages between objects, rather than just calling functions with parameters but I can't seem to figure it out in a mental model.

How does passing a message to an object differ from just calling an object's methods with parameters? Is there other good sources for understanding the differences and rewiring the mental model?
He was a strong armed businessman, but he was not in any way a criminal; and that's just a social bubble - people outside tech admire him, if they don't hate him with/because of the antivaxxers.
The older you get the more difficult it is to conceive children as well as raise them. Given that most people have a partner that is roughly the same age as them, and that there would be a much smaller percentage chance of pairing with someone with the same long life trait, the period of time that they are likely to have children probably stays consistent with societal norms. Therefore living a long life wouldn't increase the number of offspring and wouldn't provide any evnolutionary benefit.

> Is it the same thing as nuxt js but different?

NextJS is a library for doing server-side rendering in your React app. I've never touched Vue, so I don't know if that's what nuxt js does

> Yarn? I thought that npm was the thing to use again.

They're fairly interchangeable and it doesn't matter much these days.

> How does yarn know that “create next-app” command? Perhaps some yarn install globally thing?

Yeah it checks the registry of create-* packages and installs the relevant ones.

> Does it include typescript support or is it javascript only?

Yep, by default can use TS with NextJS. I only use TS when possible. Going back to vanilla JS is a horrifying thought!

> How long will this framework be hip?

React is probably the most popular front-end framework and pretty beloved. It's used seemingly everywhere these days. Since SSR is such an important use-case for websites, I'd wager that combined with how prevalent React is, NextJS will be around for a long, long time.

> Full control over babel or webpack is exactly the thing which makes it complex. It is probably easy to get started and then you have to make that little tweak on a changed babel plugin to make “it” work.

Anecdotally, I've used the default configs for create-react-app starters, NextJS, or Electron Forge starters and haven't needed to modify anything.
Love NextJS, it just keeps getting better at each new release...

Fast Refresh seemed impressive in some GIF's in tweets a couple weeks ago.
They can, but they can also populate your gut with worse bacteria. More research is needed. It is promising but I wouldn't do it until more studies are done.

In the mean time years of eating right will feed the good and kill the bad. Over time you will catch more good bacteria which will grow and multiply. Depending on what you eat, different good foods demand different good bacteria.
He did what he could. The people who should feel terrible are the people who didn't listen to him.

This doesn't really work at the individual level. Parents compete with their children, but so does everybody else. Having two parents competing with you for resources in addition to the other ten thousand people in your local community is not a meaningful difference.

Meanwhile if there was an entire community like this then the people living longer still wouldn't be at a disadvantage, the community would just have a different equilibrium. The surviving communities could e.g. have fewer children on average (you only have to replace people who die in accidents) or would expand their territory over time (expanding population can control more territory).
Uh, "git push"? With netlify or vercel you're up and running in about 60 seconds. I don't see how you get from your code editor to production without a few commands in between.
It doesn't make sense to keep going over an ever-growing pile of notes, like a team of developers who's added so many features they don't have time to do anything but maintain them. You want to organize your notes so that you can go over them just when you need them -- when you're finally seeing that weird concurrency problem, that's when you skim over those notes you took on CountDownLatch or dining philosophers or whatever. So organize them and tag them so when the time comes, you can search for "composite key best practices" or "composing decorators" or whatever.

Usually you get a fair amount of review just from the stuff you read while searching for other stuff you know is in there somewhere.
I wouldn't say that the Japanese side of Sega wasn't aware of the issue of pricing the console too high. In fact, Hayao Nakayama often spoke of this in 1994 - he was very sensitive that a high-priced console would not sell in America (and used the 3DO as evidence). He was quoted a few years back as saying that the reason he approved the 32X was because Sega of America were insistent that the Saturn was priced too high to ever sell there (the quote is in the book Sega Mega Drive Collected Works).

However, the 32X failed spectacularly, and that left Sega with nothing but the Saturn. Their response was to price-match the PlayStation, which seriously pushed them into the red. There wasn't much that could be done at that point.

Teensy has a nice audio library if you're interested in real-time sound synthesis and stuff like that, as well as MIDI-over-USB support. Along with a fast processor and a tiny footprint, it's pretty useful for making musical instruments.
I like seeing articles like this. I would just point out what I think is a not-so-discussed aspect: The transition from layout-consideration to mobile-consideration, a real issue that was capable of turning every project into a mess of puzzling layout questions from the start. This has been and remains a huge energy-level blow to a design effort, if you are a layout-design-first thinker, or just feel like approaching a given project in that way.

The article seems to be rooted in this kind of design-first preference, and I don't see that as a huge problem, but it needs to be pointed out because a lot of us here on HN can swing both ways, so to speak--cover your economically-necessary base and go with the flow (see frameworks, below), or focus on beautiful creative design.

While this shift to accommodation of mobile device was troubling from a workload perspective early on, it soon became clear that if many / most of your audience were going to consume your content on a mobile, then there was a huge energy-expenditure incentive to focus on layouts that stack up, component-by-component. This became a strong hidden incentive for web designers to say, "I see your fancy designs but things like this need to be mobile-friendly or even mobile-first these days. Also, simplicity is going to be huge for a lot of different reasons." A big reason: If you color outside of the lines, you now have a huge number of ways and places in which you need to test and troubleshoot your layout.

So the economics of site design quickly shifted: Get a vertically-stacked, mobile-friendly site with a relatively boring layout and save money, OR go all sorts of creative with the layout and pay more by creating more of a fractal of work for yourself. Maybe you'd pay just a little more, but still: More--maybe more time, or more money, or both.

Eventually as this pattern locked into place, the broader "website creation economy" rediscovered a certain level of energy efficiency as frameworks and libraries were developed around the mobile-consideration standard.

And as it turns out, these frameworks and libraries now underwrite a specific, stacking-friendly, tech-first approach to design. If you don't want to work that way, you need to go looking in the manual or cross your fingers and spend some time with Google. Or you have to hire someone who does. Or you have to look at DIY platforms with other trade-offs, like fragile designs that stack up a huge load of technical debt over time, gradually introduce subtle design bugs, and then go unsupported.

IMO these various effects are a big contributor to what the authors discuss.
I like the retrospective of this post! The "what ifs" that could've been taken are fun to think about.

I think I might take a step further than this post does—I think some sort of Racket/Rust-style macro system should be implemented in JS, which means that that means something like JSX could be implemented as a library. There's already been _some_ work on this in JavaScript (SweetJS https://www.sweetjs.org/), but making it first-class would be a big win, IMO.

I know that there are common objects to macros as being too complicated/having poor misuse resistence, but it can (and has!) been implemented and used pretty judiciously all the non-C/C++ languages I've used.
Listing prices can be a bit deceiving. Usually real estate agents play with listing prices - to get a bidding war going, they'll price well below market price. It's not unusual to see overbids of 20-30%.
There's also that little thing where he had a close association with Jeffrey Epstein after his 2007 sex trafficking conviction, and was caught lying about the timing and extent of his involvement by the New York Times. He also has close ties to the man whom Epstein named executor of his estate (who was "quick to distance himself" of course).

How GitLab is automating release generation in .gitlab-ci.yml
this is a bit narrow minded view of things. let's start adding the complexity shall we? need to use sass? let's start adding a scss loader. should we use modules in the JS files or compile everything into 1 file? what if we compile different css into another css file for our admin only layouts? should we use the "fiber" module to speed things up? how about images? let's add another loader, should we use svg/png/jpg file types? now, if all those files are included in JS, how do i access them in the CSS? in the HTML? in the JS? it's not as trivial is it? just imagine a person coming from bootcamp trying to learn all those things.

Impulse response reverbs (Bricasti, etc) are based on time-invariant convolution.

Studio reverbs famously aren't, and some of the most popular models (notably Lexicon) have included time-variant algorithms since the late 70s. The processing power to handle IR convolution didn't exist, and it turned out some time variation added lushness and density to the sound that simpler models couldn't capture.

Modelling a chorus or time-variant reverb with any form of convolution - including any convolution-based neural net - is a complete waste of time, because most chorus algos are trivial and convolution is completely the wrong tool for the job.

It's literally about as useful as taking a still picture of a 90 minute movie.
> If you solved as many notes as I did you would understand ;) I think that photographing something that's not there is still a valid thing. I try never to trust notes blindly, and when possible corroborate it with outside sources (no copying of Google Maps allowed, though).

I think this can get tricky. I've worked in several office suites where having a business listed on the directory at the entrance was an additional fee that many tenants opted not to pay (not just struggling startups; I've known this category to include large publicly-traded companies who'd existed for decades). Someone could see that a listed business is not on the directory, mark "no longer exists", even posting "photographic proof" of a directory without the business's name -- and they could still be wrong.

The only way to know for sure would be to a) verify the landlord's records; or b) regularly knock and confirm that employees of said company are routinely occupying the space.

I looked, and she's wearing an Ouroboros necklace.

"The Ouroboros, an ancient symbol depicting a serpent or dragon eating its own tail, has been said to have a meaning of infinity by depicting the cycle of birth and death. The Ouroboros eats its own tail to sustain its life, in an eternal cycle of renewal."
Sure the experience of being dead isn't too bad, because there is no such experience, but consider this: Thanks to the arrow of time, you can know what happened in the past, even if you weren't personally there. Many details are forgotten, but important events are typically recorded in historical documents, or fossils. The same is not true of the future. If I died tomorrow, I would die not knowing the answer to P vs. NP, not knowing whether humanity would last another hundred years, or another million, not knowing if we were alone in the universe. Wouldn't you be disturbed if you had to live in a world where all of human history before 1977 was forgotten? If people knew that there had been such a history, but had no memories or records of it?
although i'm a home owner as of fairly recently, this feels like a bit of a necessary correction. people owning multiple homes drives up prices for everyone else.
I have a good friend who was hired a couple of years ago at a psychological clinic to build a program for treating depression without pharmaceuticals where possible focusing instead on diet, gut health and exercise. After talking with her I got curious and started doing a lot of research on gut health and food. Up until then, I had never heard of fermenting vegetables and I wondered if an experiment with those would help me get over a bad burnout.

I read about all kinds of chemical and nutritional details and studies and edge cases I didn't understand. I tried fermenting some beans which turned out terrible reminding me I had no idea what I was doing. But I kept at it. One day, a couple of months into the experiment, by then I was fermenting successfully and enjoying it daily, when I realized that my life-long love of sugar was simply gone. I have no idea where it went. I wasn't on a diet, I wasn't restricting my food choices in any way other than to be sure I ate a couple of spoonfuls of ferment each day; it just disappeared. I never expected that to happen...

If you really want to kill that craving, try fermenting nearly any vegetable you like and just eat a little bit each day. It takes time for your gut bacteria to improve but fermenting is quick and easy to do and it costs next to nothing. Feel free to get in touch via the email in my profile if you have any questions at all and good luck!
