Because of these possibilities, I prefer using my iPad Mini for meetings, and If I have to share a screen I just join from Chrome, its screen share works well enough and is more restricted than Zoom client. I highly recommend it if you dont feel comfortable.
From my experience, it is often not an active choice to break the guidelines. It's rather the lack of knowledge/experience or ignorance - or a mix of both ("What is this accessibility thing? Do we need it?").

For contrast ratio specifically, I wished more people would adapt the approach that USWDS uses [1]. It enforces accessible color combinations by using standardized naming with a special property. E.g., I know that `blue-60` on `purple-10` is accessible (WCAG AA), because the absolute difference is 50+ (60 - 10). I'm currently writing a blog post regarding this approach to spread the awareness.

Hence advanced bait. printf() is called in a while loop, so it is hardly a single call.
Four “Mysterious Signals” Captured from Outer Space
It is. But k8s has no convenient way of parameterizing releases that can beat Helm. A simple stateless application needs:

- a deployment
- a service
- an ingress
- a config map (or several)
- a secret (or several)

It's even worse for stateful applications.

And each of the resource definitions is 60% boilerplate, 35% application-specific and 5% release- or environment-specific.

Helm would probably be a nice and neat tool if it had stopped at maintaining a simple map of variable names to values. But since applications need things like "if the user said SQLite, add a pvc, a configmap and a secret and refer to them in the ss, if she said Postgres, go pull another chart, deploy it with these parameters, then add this configmap and this secret and refer to them in the ss", Helm is an overcomplicated mess.
It may just be rendering what we observe.
Another round of SJW winning over common sense and replacing the things which just work and are easy to understand with alternatives you can easily make errors in and which make understanding the code harder.

And what about Black Friday? Should we rename it as well? And all the other set expressions including the words white/black?

Also, also, I find the word "control" disturbing and diminishing. They should absolutely replace it with something less offensive!
I'm actually also not totally sure how you can fight "racial inequality" by protesting in countries with roman law (so no biased jury and harder to do "buy the court" moves) and a non-mass-murdering police force. Basically all you could do boils down to confronting everyday racists and showing them their minority place (because the system is _not_ racist by design!). I don't think blogging about this reaches them, nor does protesting. Also it's very interesting how people develop a basic human conscience right NOW (as this is a problem, which goes back ages and they haven't cared the last time a PoC died under unclear circumstances and police covered it up so that everyone knows, but nobody could prove it - outside the US this might me some years ago (nonwithstanding conspiracy theories...)...). So yeah, I'd also say that's cringy, because it's stupid.
Ad-hoc Ask HN: Zettelkasten sounds a lot like a private Wiki. Is it different? How?
As a happy FF user on Mac, Android and Windows, I'm badly missing FF add-ons for iOS (iPadOS actually) - this is due to Apple's policies on iOS prohibiting apps from downloading plugins outside of the App Store. The web without an ad-blocker and proper cookie cleanup (not to talk about FF containers) is impractical to me right now.

Maybe I (or someone) inspired by custom browser project like the OPs, will someday bundle FF with crucial add-ons for iOS and ship that through Github. It would probably need a dev account to install it in iOS/iPadOS, but it sure would be worth it. What I don't know is if regular FF add-ons (uBlock, cookie autodelete, etc.) will work on iOS FF since it runs with a bundled Safari webkit renderer, another Apple iPhone v1 2008-era-restriction for such delicate piece of hardware (weak battery, mem and cpu) that makes no sense now with powerful 2020 devices.
Choose “proven” technology, or “boring” tech as the original article calls it, applies here too. Popular libraries that are embedded in multiple language runtimes are written in C. SQLite comes to mind. Choose boring dependencies written with boring integration interfaces.
I don't see the "unified API across vendors" there. At least not for the actual cloud part. Unified is only the part interacting with the market place.

Devils advocate: So you get this EU-verified catalogue which lets you pick your vendor lock-in between Amazon, Microsoft, and Google just like before.
Most expected considering Google is so SJW friendly.
Interesting. How are the included effects and instruments?

Is there a single version or different tiers like abelton, where you get almost no instruments with the cheapest tiers?

I think the GP’s point is that Firefox still uses Gecko and some parts of Servo, which is true. Servo is not a complete engine yet and it’s not fully merged into Firefox yet.

This is true for renaming a variable but GP mentioned converting string literals to enums. For tasks like that, I think Vim is pretty much the fastest. Also, Vim can also rename variables with coc (https://github.com/neoclide/coc.nvim)
Sure, that’s true, but I can’t think of First class lounges anywhere that the provider isn’t providing F seats from. I mean it’s pretty rare to have a dedicated F lounge outside of a hub airport in general for a carrier. QR — who are known for their luxury — only have an F lounge in Doha.

I actually had to Google search just to confirm it is not a coincidence.

Unfortunately, I can't say much about other DAWs as Reaper was pretty much what my budget allowed, and that was my first (and last) paid full featured DAW. There were not much free alternatives at the time. LMMS wasn't very stable, and hard to figure out (it might be better now). What I previously used was Synthfont (much cheaper freemium and more minimal and unlike common DAWs, but gets my job done) + Sekaiju opensource MIDI editor. My workflow was to use a scoring program (MuseScore), export the MIDI, tweak the MIDI in the DAW and use third party instruments/effects.

But I remember that the Reaper downloads were less than 20MB. It didn't bundle with many VSTs or samples, but I preferred that as I felt other DAWs are bundling a lot of stuff that you probably won't need to justify higher prices. Especially since my main genre back then was orchestral music and most bundled sounds appear to be for dance music. Almost all sounds I used are third party VSTs and samples (I did use Reaper's reverb). I never noticed any lag on my 2008 Thinkpad or my 2013 MacBook Air.

I'm not an active user now, since I spend more time coding (which may have killed my "right brain"...).

Just to add. New versions often showcase cool useful features, hence made me say it is original (sorry this might sound subjective without trying other paid DAWs).
Its a vicious cycle, unfortunately. The more rioting and violent protest goes on the streets, the more they will empower the police and thus even more chance for future brutality.
I use Samsung Browser with Adguard and I'm very satisfied. You also have the DuckDuckGo browser. I don't know if Edge supports extensions.
> I wonder. Are all the vulnerabilities and issues with Zoom because of its popularity?

No vulnerabilities are in production because of buggy code and lack of pre-production quality control. But yes more popularity means more free quality control by third parties. It is a sad reality of "scale first" and "cheapest offer" economies.

I love bookmarklets. There are many fantastic ones here: https://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/

They haven't been updated in a while but they work perfectly in latest FF (and Chrome I suppose).
I appreciate Reaper very much although I'm religiously married to Cubase since it was a single floppy disk. This is quite something to dig up an origin story of a DAW.

Having worked in several declarative config systems at a big tech company that tried to provide these guard rails. They errode!!

And it makes sense. As we demand more flexibility to not repeat ourselves (DRY) we get clever and add little features.

Suddenly you can stick an entire cluster config (or several!!) inside a lambda that returns the declared resources... And you've gone straight to hell. You're more than Turing complete by then and engineers are reinventing conditionals and loops with lambdas all over your config codebase.

Might as well have just started and left it at Python/etc.
I see a big NVIDIA part on that page and wonder where in the world AMD is. Are they part of blender? Because maybe they should be.
Blender’s cycles renderer and some HDRIs would be an excellent way to produce stunning architecture rendering. Switch to the eevee renderer and use freestyle to outline edges (which you can also export to SVG!) and you can produce some excellent stylised images too.

Also have a look at the included Archimesh add-on.

This 'everything is subjective' non-sense is fiction masquerading as fact of the highest calibre.

People liking water and not liking dying of thirst is not subjective.

You're using 'everything is subjective' to defend 'I don't have the faith in humanity to not fuck it up' and you cannot do that because everything is subjective is a non-sensical claim. What you're really expressing is deep pessimism, which I happen to share :)

What I think we should say is, eugenics is an excellent idea, but the current ruling elite is too infantile to implement it in a way that wouldn't lead to a dystopia of one type or another.

---

Another interesting thought is to contemplate that we already enable some to breed and raise children in far better circumstances than other people, by design. Is that not eugenics? We're doing selective breeding and providing selective advantages and we always have. Is that not eugenics?

If you ask me, I'd rather we go extinct because of a scientific experiment of immense beauty, than the usual petty fight for limited resources where the rich sit back and watch, while the innocent slaughter each other by the millions.
Yes but their goal seems to be API compatible, which I understand the point of, but is not useful to me.

Interesting discussion. I'm probably not the only one who started using Brave (on the side) because it's being put forward as one of the fastest/leanest browsers around. And I need something like that for the hybrid Win10 PC I chose as a cheap tablet alternative that will also run desktop software.
I can't attest to "leanest", but it is indeed the only browser that works reasonably well with something like Facebook on that tablet. Anything else becomes unbearably sluggish after a short while, an MS Edge just has a too much crippled UI (and general incapability to function with my filtering proxy, Privoxy).

I see lots of remarks about FF being slow. It's a memory hog indeed (can't use it on my tablet because of that), but so are Chromium-based browsers, and FF is the only one I know where you can trigger a GC run that actually has some effect. I combine that with "The Great Suspender" extension to keep things manageable.
Funny enough it was by far the fastest a year or 2 ago on what seemed a reasonably representative HTML5 benchmark that has been taken offline since. It's also the only option to have an up-to-date browser on my Mac that I've been keeping under OS X 10.9.5. That alone earns them my support...

I do wonder why WebKit2 isn't been used more; outside of the Apple universe (where it's sadly linked to the OS version) the only "official" browser I know of that uses it is Gnome's epiphany which isn't exactly cross-platform. My tests with the rebooted QtWebkit suggest that the older (but maintained, AFAIK) WebKit codebase superior in performance and resource use to Chromium ("WebEngine") for sites that don't require newer, unsupported features (and as an embedded HTML renderer).
This will come in very handy during CTF's. Thanks!

I'd describe it as a certain style of private wiki. It comes with certain conventions how a wiki page should be. The article describes it as atomic, self-contained, permanent, and concise.
I can strongly reccommend «Objectified», another one of Gary Hustwits documentaries. It features interviews with the legendary german industrial designer Dieter Ramms, where he praises Apple. It also has an interview with Jony Ive where he talks about the MacBook. «Urbanized» is also a good documentary from Hustwit, about urban design.
I'm wondering: is there _any_ empirical data that shows that good old note-taking with a pen and paper is less effective when compared to Zettelkasten note-taking? (Disregarding advantages of digital note-taking such as easy to search, etc.)

I personally use successive relearning, sometimes also referred to as retrieval-based learning, it's not a note-taking technique per se, but more of a framework on how to learn/study in a way that maximizes retention and meaningful learning.

If anyone's interested in it, here are some resources:

4: Run programme

5: "Syntax Error: Line NNN"

6: Fix Line NNN

7: Repeat stages 4 -6 several dozen times

8: Run Programme without it crashing --yay!

9: Letters XX>* move slowly across screen from left to right... Press spacebar... Letter O moves up screen from bottom to top and hits letters XX>... Computer makes feeble buzzing noise, like a bluebottle's fart... Letters disappear... Screen prints "GAME OVER! --PLAY AGAIN? Y/N"...

It is similar to private Wiki in how the notes are linked.

My understanding simplified:

Wiki - linked notes

Zettelkasten - Wiki + process on how to read and work with resources, guidelines on how notes should be added, structured and tagged

It seems as though Zettelkasten, despite being a relatively old phenomenon (e.g. see Niklas Luhmann), is experiencing a renaissance these days. Ultimately, it is just (yet) another way of keeping track of your notes and thoughts. You can think of it as cataloguing everything you write down. I reckon whether you stand to gain anything from converting your existing note-taking to a Zettelkasten operation depends entirely on how you currently take notes. What really matters is that whatever approach you employ works for you. In general, I wager the mere act of actually writing something down and approaching material in a critical, thoughtful manner as opposed to merely consuming is what drives both retention and understanding. Zettelkasten might help you attain that. It might also not.

Which is why there is an option called emulate numpad under Blender Preferences > Input. The same is true for the middle mouse button (Emulate 3 button mouse). They both work fine, the numpad one is one of the first things I activate.

Not only is this option at the place where you would expect it to be, it is also not hard to find hints to it online.
Zettelkasten in its physical version is just a certain way of pen and paper note-taking.
