I would recommend starting with HTML and CSS and avoid JavaScript until you have a good sense of how the static stuff works. Then play a bit with JS and find a framework that you like working in.

If you already know Python it should be relatively easy to learn JS, just try to understand _this_, scoping and variable hoisting, which is the source of almost all of the weirdness of JavaScript and something a lot of (even experienced) developers get confused on.
Thanks for the clarification.

And yes, I have implicitly bundled the semantics with the syntax here. I suppose in doing so, I am arguing both that dataflow is a powerful and interesting way of modeling computations that allow for a lot of neat features and that visual representations are more natural and give additional useful benefits over text-based ones. I have not seen a compelling text-based dataflow representation, but that doesn't mean one doesn't or can't exist. LabVIEW actually compiles its block diagrams to what's known as DFIR, dataflow intermediate representation, which is then compiled to LLVM IR. The DFIR is helpfully visualized as a graph, although the dataflow graph is represented by text underneath.

I first learned to program FPGAs with LabVIEW. Now I am learning HDLs, and it's a bit painful. Understanding VHDL is not hard, but I find it to be a poor representation of what it is describing. The text-based representation hides the nature of the actual computation it's representing.

If you have any references to dataflow or any links to things you've done, I'd love to take a look. :)
Say, robotics where the difference between an FPGA and something else is way overshadowed by the motors.

Or really basically anywhere that has you interacting with the real world directly connected to your compute, and not just compute off in a datacenter.
This happens already in medicine a lot. A surgeon in a small hospital in Kansas actually makes more money than one in NYC. The reason is because nobody wants to live in the middle of nowhere.

I like this. Being able to easily filter on a certain type of result is a neat idea.

One major shortcoming I commonly experience in search engines is poor support for things like complex or custom logical symbols, bitwise operators and other non-alphanumeric strings. None of the major search engines do this well AFAIK.
No problem! I'm glad you found it useful.
Going slightly off topic but I wonder if anyone can point me to a tailwind "starter kit" - ie. a project with everything in place to get going with tailwind, postcss etc.

Thanks!
There's a gradient here. Such thing as "less work" should exist somewhere between "tons of work" and "no work."
People don't get how lucky they are with the idea and mythos of America. I think the world declines when we don't believe in the specific vision of government by the people for the people. Of course, just having the right philosophy isn't enough. We still need to embody it. But we are damn lucky to have such a good founding philosophy and I highly doubt if we could do better today.

This is a direct consequence of considering money to be free speech: those who have more of it have louder voices, and this matters a lot when it comes to elections, and when it's time for politicians to pay back their debts to the donors.
Are you sure were are not heading towards The Expanse ;P

Here's one counter argument for UBI. Who will do all the boring work needed for building a dam / apartment ? If we are honest about it, most of this boring, physically harmful and repetitive infrastructure work is only done by the working class that chooses to do it because the alternative is begging. It's because of the threat of extreme poverty and unemployment that the working class works. If they are able to sustain themselves with UBI why would they work ?

Who will do the boring data entry work in our industry ?
I thought the same thing until you start to think in terms of “constraint-based components”, which are more easily done in CSS-in-JS. Styling is done by passing properties to a component, e.g. <Heading color=“primary” />, and only the developer building the primitive component needs to worry about styling. You end up being able to rapidly develop interfaces that match the designs.
If someone does that, by all means stand back and call them an idiot. Let them suffer. It would actually be justified.
I think developed countries will adopt a "Work on Demand" model that allows workers to order work and have it delivered and picked up (anywhere in their state, county or city) using the advancements of self driving vehicles. It compliments the trends currently underway with WFH/WHA and the same-day delivery aspirations of a few e-tailers.

UBI might be a transition to WoD, but the infrastructure, education and political models should go ahead and calibrate to the flexibility of the labor market(s).

The COL argument should revolve around someone only having to work 20 hours a week to maintain their lifestyle vs someone who has to work 40 hours for the same thing.

Correct, but it sounds like there was no option for "strongly interested in working remote part-time".

What other option is this person supposed to pick then? Saying "not at all interested" skews the results of the survey to mean that this person is not interested in remote work whatsoever.

Imo in the absence of "strongly interested in working remote part-time" answer, picking "somewhat interested in working remote full-time" is the most rational choice.
The latest research indicates that younger children are not significant transmitters of this virus. There is little scientific basis to support keeping primary schools closed. The risk may be higher with older children.

As a college student just entering the job market, this trend will be an absolute nightmare if it continues to its natural terminus (all tech companies permanently and primarily WFH).

My current internship has been WFH for the past ~2 months and it has drastically reduced how much I actually enjoy my job. Talking with my coworkers and the office atmosphere in general was a large part of why I enjoyed my job, and that has been reduced to a daily standup over Zoom and a handful of strictly work-related Slack messages when necessary. I understand there are some people who simply like to clock in and clock out but for people like me for whom the office is a large source of regular socialization, working from home is incredibly lonely.

It seems as though a large amount of people pushing for WFH situations are more senior engineers, especially those with children or other concerns at home. For a moment, just put yourself in the shoes of a junior engineer or fresh grad who is new to the job or the industry in general and remember your first day on your first job. Probably the only thing that relieved some of the stress or anxiety was a friendly coworker, or the ability to grab a mentor to answer questions sitting just a few feet away. WFH, no matter the technology, cannot create a substitute for this.
You can only keep the prices high with cartelization or true scarcity. Though removing subsidies (for things like public transport) can also raise prices. But our food supply is highly distributed. If one vendor charges higher-prices, others will take the opportunity to offer lower prices as long as they still can get the margin. We often debate various forms of market failure on this forum, but in the cases of functioning markets, supply and demand does indeed work.
They dont have to buy $30 a day worth of food/snacks. No foosball table maintenance costs. Air conditioning/heat on and on it goes.

Working remote for less money is probably a fools game once you consider the cost of your home office and lost perks.

Companies know this and are playing it smart by saying it's a benefit and therefore should pay _less_
Right, thank you! (It was clear even before your edit).

One interesting thing to observe is how different cultures are reacting to the pandemic.

In Europe, it feels that the memories of two world wars are still recent enough to make people understand these are extraordinary times, and that the best way to return to normalcy is by collective effort and making the fight against the virus a top priority. It is hard in the beginning, but people promptly change their behavior until the problem is solved or controlled. Only when the war is over is when people start trying to go out on the streets to reclaim their lives.

In Brazil and in the US (where I lived and have friends and family) it seems they can not accept the reality changing so rapidly in front of their eyes. Even today, when I have my older relatives learning about a friend or acquaintance of theirs getting sick or dying, their reaction is "They were in the risk group/not taking care of themselves/did not take magical-pill-X". They are struggling so much to accept the risks and want so much to return immediately to having some sense of normalcy that in the end they are probably gonna end up worse than the Europeans - a lot of lives lost and still no true recovery.
Give Directly does that. The organization is all about giving money to the extreme poor, and they're outstandingly effective at doing this. At the same time, they structure their giving activities as RCT's at varying levels (formerly household-based, now full villages AIUI) so they're also creating very valuable research output about these issues.
In rural areas of the U.S. some people still burn their trash.

As a kid who watched a lot of 20/20 and 60 Minutes, I was always afraid of the smoke because people would often toss batteries, PVC pipe, etc, in their trash pit. But it was normal behavior, so when visiting someone's house I just tried to stay upwind of the cancer cloud.
This assumes good faith tested to the point of cynicism, on the part of the police, when it's been shown time and again that police are indoctrinated into a regime of institutional bias from the moment they enter the force.

I see the logic in your statement, but it's an imperfect model.

Wayland strikes me as the "shiny new thing" that is not ready for widescale use. If I was designing a distro and could only choose one I would choose X unless it was specifically a distro for shiny things that break.
Regarding 2: the question was about an open-source solution, so I think that "billions and billions of R&D" will translate to just a lot of time spent and no literal cost, e.g. just like GCC is free as in beer.

It is true that getting a wafer fabricated will cost a lot of money (in the millions maybe?) but this may be money well spent because the resulting FPGA design can be used over and over. I think this would be in the reach of perhaps some universities or government technology centers, if someone could formulate the case for it.
Also, they might not even want to hire for such a thing.

There are plenty of businesses that don't need to be on fancy infrastructure or use the coolest new language for their backend.

I don’t know why they don’t do this at $1K/mo for life for 30 people (and then study them qualitatively) instead of $250 one-time for 20,000. What is a one-time payment of $250 going to tell us about a UBI?

An intermediate approach I've been taking with my own son is to use calculus and initially not bother with either the manipulation OR the formalism. You have something moving, have the position and want the speed. Or vice-versa. You use it in a bunch of places to build out vocabulary and fluency, and build up both the mechanics and the formalism later.

And we derive a few formulas along the way. integrals of x and derivatives of x2 (x^2, depending on your programming language) pop up all over the place.
The threat model has fundamentally changed, and I'm not so convinced it's acceptable to tell people "We will change nothing because you probably won't die" when the mode of death strikes directly at perception of day-to-day safety.

American tolerance of that, from terrorism to gun ownership, is changing.
Ah, downvoted with no reasons given or proof presented. I hoped for better from the good citizens of this community.
One of the very important things to know is that, while an infinite-dimensional, separable Hilbert space is basically "n-dimensional space, but more so", there are more general kinds of infinite-dimensional spaces (I'm thinking of Banach spaces, but you can certainly get still more general than that) that are much more general than that. The prototypical examples of these are the L^p spaces, where p stands for ∞, or a real number p ≥ 1—but p isn't the dimension, as in ℝ^n (they're all infinite dimensional, at least for a reasonable underlying metric space). Rather, it's a parameter that controls, in some sense, how close the geometry is to being governed by the Pythagorean theorem, so that only p = 2 gives (a Hilbert space, and hence) the 'usual' geometry.

I think your point with functional programming is spot on. Just as one learns, to pick that bête noire, monads not by reading yet another clever re-packaging that somehow only manages to make them sounds more difficult, but rather by finding a problem for which they're relevant and getting a feel for them by using them, so too does one learn about infinite-dimensional space not by treating it as some sort of philosophical profundity, but by finding a problem for which it's the right setting, and realising that it's just a mathematical tool like any other.
What's wrong with competition as a price control? Isn't that the basis of capitalism? If someone else wants to raise their prices because "free money" then I'll just keep my prices the same and steal all their business.
I've established a significant portion of my important friendships through work.

I think it happens more easily in smaller companies for sure. Big corporations seem more hollow.
4chan seems to have a superior system wherein there are a small number of mods who take recommendations from a large, churning group of janitors. These janitors can only suggest bans and must follow a template for each of their ban recommendations. However, the janitors can delete posts/images at will (reversible by mods).

Thus, the system is both evenly-applied (most of the time) and highly scalable.
No, companies offer the least amount and still be competitive with the other employers in the area. This amount currently varies by location because job markets are segmented by city. Over time if job markets spread across cities, then this would change.
I'm not in the US, so I know little about its social security programs. But isn't Social Security is one of many?

Also this paragraph from the linked article suggests that the 0.7% figure does not include means testing:

Indeed, universal participation and the absence of means-testing make Social Security very efficient to administer. Administrative costs amount to only 0.7 percent of annual benefits, far below the percentages for private retirement annuities. Means-testing Social Security would impose significant reporting and processing burdens on both recipients and administrators, undercutting many of those advantages while yielding little savings.
If I may restate your position: "If a student uploads an image in the wrong format then it is acceptable for their entire test to be invalid and they can retake the entire exam."

Rather I think what is acceptable is HEIC is not accepted by the system, and if a student attempts to submit this format they receive an error saying that only JPG images are allowed.
Agreed... but the U.S. is about the pursuit of happiness, not the pursuit of a large workforce.
The question doesn't make any sense, because it presupposes that everybody changes behavior in a timeframe that is very short compared to the typical lifespan of the animals. But I don't think that's conceivable. The total number of chickens in the world may be tens of billions but is a fraction of the number consumed in a year, I believe. Feel free to correct me if you have some knowledge about farming.
I love React and would recommend it as the primary frontend library. However, I would suggest avoiding the Material UI component library entirely (as I believe it’s both difficult to customise and over-engineered) and just write SASS to start off.

If you really like how Angular 1 worked (writing templates instead of JS to represent DOM) then Vue is a great choice.
I've had a cat eat my hair which is a grooming behavior they otherwise only do with other cats that they trust. If that isn't evidence of some kind of mutual relationship then I don't know what is.
jQuery is not part of standard web development, it’s a library.

You can also view vanilla Javascript as a library, just one that ships with the browser. Where is the distinction between too much abstraction and not enough? You’re not developing in machine code right?
That article is amazing. I figured Trump was just shit stirring, I should have known he'd have a relationship with people who've been trading in that debt.

I would have been really surprised if they actually removed it.

The points made in the video are mostly sensible. They acknowledge the many unknowns.

It more or less advocates for the Swedish model of dealing with this vs. most other countries.
That's why I mentioned certificate pinning. I figure you could generate a keypair for WSS communications between the nice programs and then when a nice client tried to connect to a naughty server he would know he had connected to a different host program.
My understanding of the history of American responses to being attacked inclines me to disagree with that assessment. Consider how many liberties were given up during WWII after Pearl Harbor---the government basically nationalized resource distribution. To say nothing of what Americans considered tolerable to do to their Asian-American neighbors.

Soft forking is a common response - IMO reddit is the closest social platform to "getting it right", although it should do a better job of pushing low-value content (/r/politics, etc) down into the "minor leagues" of subreddits.

Kittyhawk claims eVTOLs can be more energy efficient than cars
Kittyhawk has done some really interesting work in the eVTOL space and have shared some of their thoughts on the energy requirements vs. electric cars. The comparison has some gaps that make it seem less than apples to apples.

1. The comparison seems to only include energy use at cruising. There's no mention of ascent and decent which consumes the most energy. It may be interesting to look at the total energy consumed per-passenger for the average 16 mile commute the company claims.

2. The author carefully explains how they calculated the passenger-mile energy for a Nissan Leaf (energy per mile / average occupancy) or 275/1.6 = 171. Then claims that Heaviside uses only 120W per passenger-mile without explaining the average occupancy. So X/Y = 120. Perhaps they are only using a passenger occupancy of 1 (it only has one seat, for the pilot) but it's unclear.

3. How do things change when the aircraft must be larger & heavier to carry more passengers?
I disagree the purpose is that people will continue to work, but regardless, it’s a much improved unemployment insurance because it doesn’t go away when you do work, and so doesn’t disincentivize work.
If you’re treating people wanting to live cheaply without a job as a negative situation that should be avoided, then I don’t think you’re in a mindset to be evaluating UBI specifics correctly. You should just be wholesale against it. The whole point is to free people from wage slavery. You’re worried that it will work!

On an even broader level though, location caused cost of living differences being taken in to account in anything like this seems odd. I read it as the equivalent of “but what about people who want Ferrari’s not Honda’s!?” When it seems like others see it as “what about people who have expensive to treat medical conditions?”

COL differences aren’t some arbitrary accident. You’re paying more to live somewhere more desirable.
Imagine a population of 1 user. A user puts of a video advertised as instructions for doing a dangerous task while leaving out vitally important steps necessary to the user actually performing the task safely. The user follows instructions and promptly dies. The user was responsible for their own actions but nonetheless its hard to argue that if we left the video up after we had identified the issue led we and the author are both complicit. We should have taken down the video. The user is still free to host their own videos but it wont achieve as much of an audience without the benefit of the platform.

Imagine a population of 1 million users. In one timeline evil, stupid misinformation isn't spread around and 1000 people die.

In another timeline it is spread around and 10000 people die. Warning labels can't help here because most of the people negatively effected are multiple steps removed from such a label. Like the first example we should have reduced its audience by taking it down entirely not added a warning label that 50-80% wont attend to.
What these nurses see on the Covid ICU in Seattle
How would this be any different than now? Companies that have a culture of disrespect towards their employee's time by expecting responses to after hours emails and calls will continue to do so, as they always have. The onus is on the individual to determine if they're going to put up with that or not.

The domains of x and y both appear defined as the real numbers. But, the reals do not have a root for every non-constant polynomial defined in terms of x or y as the real numbers are an not algebraically closed field. The proposed concept attaches two extra (complex) dimensions to each two dimensional real point. This is close to visualizing R^4 by attaching an R^2 to each point of R^2, so in some sense the tangent bundle of R^2.
Thanks, that puts it much better than I did.

Like many, I think I'm in the former group and will allow myself a little Schadenfreude if the latter group gets an "adjustment." Unless it turns out I'm wrong. :-O
