To me, telemetry is ok. That is, how the software runs, which operations are slow, where crashes or recoverable errors happen. Anonymous technical stuff, preferably in a user-unelectable form.

What I'd be concerned about is personal profiling, knowing which sites I visit, which forms I submit (including web search), etc.

What is the point of your comment, besides pointing out that laziness/ignorance is why most people don't have their privacy respected when using technology?
Yikes on appropriation. I had been assuming the "Trump on a Tank" image was obviously parody, both from subject matter and from the black power fist on the tank (on the mudguard just behind the sprocket). Now I wonder if this may actually be a case of "any sufficiently advanced ideology is indistinguishable from satire"?
I disagree. A list of strings requires manual validation whether a value is actually in the list; enums have that built in. Additionally, enums (at least in Python) can have behaviour associated with each value, which can be useful in many contexts.

There are also good reasons why Python does not have switch/case statements, which are generally an anti-pattern; they work fine for a quick fix, but what they do is better solved with proper polymorphism.
What's weird is that you reflect on your emotions, understand that decisions you made are irrational, and still can't see yourself make a different decision going forward. Why did you reflect in the first place? Are you not interested in making rational decisions?
security, add to that pages load faster without JS or with JS disabled.
The two cons of Safari for me are:

- No AV1, Webp decoder

- No stable bookmark sync cross browser (for example, icloud bookmark sync to another Firefox in Windows is not stable)

except to these, Safari is still my daily browser.
No per site process isolation, X11 exploit on Linux, and more telemetry to Google than Chrome would be a good place to start.

First I've heard of company-mode, thanks for that. A DDG search gives https://company-mode.github.io/ as its first result, on their it refers you to its issue tracker - perhaps let them know if you haven't already?

Large CSVs, Perhaps use LFV (large file viewer) if you want a read-only look.

Otherwise I just loaded a 26MB binary file in less than a second. I created a 2.46 Gigabyte (not MB) CSV, opened it in a new emacs, took less that 15 seconds (fundamental mode). I think your problem lies elsewhere - it may be an unnecessary mode being invoked.

How did the browser run when you turned off JS, a whole lot faster I imagine?
Um. Everyone has been told to stay home and not socialise. Is it any wonder that there's much less economic activity?

The problem is how fast we resume? Which does smell like it'll take mass vaccination to be completed as a pre-requisite..

This is a great documentary. I watched it a long time ago, and it felt pretty timeless, just like Helvética itself.
Hardly. They do a billion dollars a year in revenue.
For consumption? Sure.

For creative work? Not so much.

As for the performance, we don't really know yet. Single core benchmarks of a CPU with low core count may play out differently with tens or hundreds of cores, 5GHz frequencies, active cooling etc. You can't extrapolate benchmarks in a linear fashion.

No doubt the A Series is impressive, however it hasn't really been tested in a "Mac Pro" yet, so we'd have to see.

Then there's the issue of compatibility and I fail to see how Apple plans to break the Wintel monopoly on the desktop. Sure, it may be able to transition to ARM with the Mac, but unless its chips are available to everybody, (unlikely), there's hardly a route I see for Apple to end x86 dominance.

And yet, making it a target can still be a positive move.

The upside of having it be a score, is that makes it easier to have a big cultural push to deal with the issues covered in the score. So the measure isn't as good, but you have more people taking it seriously.
I'm too damn lazy to read the paper, so you may be right. But normally, we practice a division of labour. Theoreticians build models in the expectation that empiricists will (a) test them and (b) estimate key parameters. If these guys have said "we have the answer, this is what you should do" then maybe you are right.

I'm not saying either that this phenomenon never happens. I just think it's rather rare, especially among sensible and skilled economists. See also the great Bob Sugden's paper "Credible Worlds", which is available here at the moment.

I'm not sure what you mean by this. It's hard to take Google's push for these sorts of APIs as a push for a "democratic shared platform," let alone see how all this would harm Google in any way.
I don’t have a particularly common surname but used to get emails from a teacher in Alabama about her vacation days. In the end I managed to track her down at the school from google and asked her to update her email address on file, and haven’t heard anything since.

I also once got a hotel confirmation which I initially suspected might have been an attempt at misusing a cloned credit card, but that turned out later to be a simple mistake.

Incidentally the only time I have had my card cloned was in the ‘states, because they seem allergic to chip-and-pin, which has been the de facto standard in the uk (and Europe) pretty much since the turn of the millennium, and in the age of today’s health concerns, the use of contactless payments has seen a massive rise in popularity.
> And, as a user, you could actually call a company, get a humanoid and ask them a question!

Human-based customer support still exists today, at least for expensive enterprise software. Companies actually pay for yearly support contracts so they can get their questions answered and get help with technical issues.
"Mental disorder" in English :), psychics are the people who read your fortune.
As lot of businesses do not reach that scale where architectural or design or quality issues may pop up, "full-stack" devs keep moving the wheel. I think that is good enough and good enough is OK.
> you need to have good enough taste to pick new techs...

So you see tech as you see fashion, i.e it requires good taste?!

When you choose a new tech, perhaps you should consider what problems it solves and whether its costs are worthwhile for you, not whether its a hot new fashionable thing to "wear" in parties (conferences).
I think the point Scarblac was trying to make is that by the biological definition of race, there is only one human race, and all human belong to it. We have historically said that Black people, White people, Asian people, whatever, belong to different races, but that's not accurate and it is that error that lets racist ideas (in the discriminatory sense) to exist. Those "race" categorizations have no basis in biology and have shown to be flexible over time. A hundred years a go, an Irish person would not have been considered white, and a Spanish person might have. Today the Irish man is white, and the Spaniard might be called a Latin.

I think it's better to say that race exists, but it's a cultural construct, not a biological reality. It's clear that in the USA the largest part of people with black or dark brown skin color have a shared history and culture that comes from the capture of native African population. They clearly have something in common, and they exist as a group. The term "race" is problematic, but it's the best one we have.
"Hello, My name is Misha. I am a map geek."

But what is a map geek?

A personal aesthetic where the visual, geometric and topological apects conspire to induce a overpowering feeling for the beauty of spatial possibility.

A spatial imagination, which can look at a map, but see the landscape. The symbolic abstractions vanish as a transparent veil over the underlying truth. A skill and a motivation also correlated with mathematics, physics, (computer) graphics, typography, chess, classical music, art and sculpture.

A specific intuitive understanding of topography, based on what it would look like on the ground, with nuances of intervisibility, and the operational task of planning of hiking routes. Perhaps also interwoven with knowledge of local geology, flora and fauna. Ultimately enabling navigating without maps, by the familiarity of the trail, the interlocking of landmark and timeline, and the experience of light and weather by the seasons. Striding out to the summit and rolling down to beat the sunset.

Can there be a map geek who is not also a hiker?

The mapgeekiness of the (probably male) introverted techie personality. Not just viewing and relating to the beauty, but a desire to know, capture and own, all of it. The collector of the specimens, the librarian of the catalog, the unconsulted oracle preoccupied with imaginings of unspoken theories.

During corona quarantine a built a web tool to support the Scrum Retrospective Session for (distributed) Scrum Teams. I use it with my team, even though we are back in the office again: https://retrospective.scrum-tips.com/

For now, it is completely free, not even registration required. I am thinking of making a paid professional version, as I see that it is useful and used by other teams despite the lack of marketing.
But still, need to work on better marketing as well as adding more features...
Because using Firefox nightly would signal to Mozilla that I'm fine with how they're handling add-ons. If they're not going to support add-ons properly, I'm not going to use their browser.
I think USB4 will fix some of this confusion because it will require Thunderbolt cables, which do everything.

Hopefully they require some sort of labeling to identify them.
FWIW experimental economics results seem to be more reproducible than psychology.[1] Though this is a bit of a pot-kettle blackness contest.

I don't believe you would choose a username like that (and to a lesser extent, your current one) for any other purpose than to explicitly provoke heated arguments. There are plenty of places on the web where you can go for those, I am happy that dang et al are making an effort to minimize them.
Metaphors have the problem of being imprecise - I would say this is more like "are you using normal chef knife or your own special chef knife that nobody has?" or "are you using standard set of tools that every workshop has, or are you used to your own special stuff that nobody else has available"?

You're framing it as if the OP said "fuck fancy text editors or IDEs, I'm using notepad!" but I don't really see it that way.

As I see it, it's more like "do you really get that much gains from customizing your vim / Sublime Text / IDEA so much that you're incapable of working on someone else's machine? Is that worth it?"
Charge yes, transfer probably not.
Not everything is about revenue. If it was, JS based advertisement revenue isn’t the only source.

> YouTube was (and still largely is) written in Python, way before it was cool and well-known.

I agree with you on just about everything, but python was well-known well before YT. Django was a staple of the early web.
This is pretty much spot on. People usually missing the point of 'boring' because they would think of unpleasant and ancient stuff.

The key value is indeed to avoid surprises.

When I read WhatsApp used Erlang back in the day, I was pretty impressed. Not only the obvious things like Erlang was the forgotten secret weapon for massive concurrent apps, but also details like they used FreeBSD back in the day when there was no preemptive scheduling but Erlang has preemptive scheduling so it was okay. Those details reflect they were very confident and they know perfectly what they were doing.
What I don't understand is - if the two parts of the tally stick presented don't match, what do you do then? How do you resolve that? How do you know which party is the one in error?
To be clear, this is not a new cloud-hyperscaler.

Rather, different providers can offer services and (compute) nodes with different levels of certification / geographic location.

So a government agency / hospital / critical-Infrastructure on can use cloud offerings without loosing „digital sovereignty“ by depending on single providers or outside actors.

How different are Blink and WebKit these days?

My impression is they share patches enough, that they can't really be counted as different browser engines.

But perhaps that has changed?

It's just LaTeX, I believe. it's kind of strange that it's just a image when it could be typeset with mathjax instead.
ASCII records have their own limitations though:

- They can be as easily edited by hand like other serialisation formats which use printable characters as their deliminators

- It's not clearly defined how you'd use them for non-tabulated data (such as JSON, XML, S-Expressions)

- There isn't any standard for escaping control characters

- They're harder to differentiate between unserialised binary formats

- They can't be used as a primitive like JSON is to Javascript and S-Expressions is to Lisp.

And if we're both honest, reducing the serialisation overhead doesn't gain you anything when working in the command line. It's a hard enough sell getting websites to support BSON and at least there, there is a tangible benefit of scale.

Not that I'm dismissing ASCII records, they would have been better than the whitespace mess we currently have in POSIX shells. However I don't agree ASCII records are better that current JSON nor S-Expressions.
I mean, similar to using react/redux to support noscript scenarios I imagine you SHOULD be able to use any SSR supportive framework to do the same, though it might require more than usual care to do so.
One of the things that annoys me on a daily basis is how FF handles the address bar. In Brave, if I click on the address bar. It gives me a button to copy the link. If I have a link copied, there's a paste button. If I use FF, I have to go through the whole monkey dance of clicking on the address bar, tap holding the address until the copy menu shows up, then I can copy.

Then there's absolutely infuriating stuff like the address bar and tabs disappearing when scrolling, which is fine, but it can be really fucking annoying trying to get it to show up again. It doesn't respond properly, sometimes I'll have to scroll back up a whole page before it does anything and all I wanted to do was switch tabs, so I have to scroll back down when I come back. Makes me want to punch an FF developer.

It is not in Google or Apple's best interest to work together on things like this, because then it'd accelerate the already fast-coming age of Progressive Web Apps (PWAs), which removes their, what, 30% cut from "apps"?

IIRC, caustic was developed by a former game dev, and as such he worked hard to make it efficient and look good on all kinda of devices.

For a while it was the most expensive app I had on my phone, and I bought it only to support the developer.

There was an iOS port last time I checked, but maybe he decided to pull it?

I literally read my real-world version of this to pieces.

I'm not okay with how Mozilla behaves regarding add-ons. As in, they have all this addon support, but it's not in any way a priority for them so they've basically taken it all away. So I won't support them or use their browser until they do.

can anyone vouch for how loud this is in person at the actual bridge? i feel like i wouldn't really mind, or even kinda like the sound, since at least it doesn't seem to have any terrible dissonances in it between the various ~"notes", but only if (1) it's something that is only occasionally noticeable and (2) if it isn't completely deafening on the bridge. but i guess i've always been a pretty big fan of sonification of public spaces, if you wanna call this that.
