The hard part there isn't a browser vs native thing (native apps also generally ship with all of the assets in a front-loaded client) but abstracting your rendering pipeline to handle streaming or incremental LoD over the network.

It's more of challenge of taking the time to add that level of polish.

Kind of like the rare native game, like League of Legends, that will let you play before the entire client is finished downloading. Being a native app didn't give Riot Games that for free, they had to specifically build it for their game. Even in the native game market, it's AAA-level polish for a small fraction of games.

I wonder how much of the HN discussion stems from what time of day people typically read text on their devices?

I'm one of those morning people, who works best from 5:00 AM to around noon. I like white backgrounds and black text, with lots of contrast. Anything else is just harder to read, and contributes to eye strain. These new dark UIs, and also flat UIs in general are just harder for me to read and harder to identify and separate the components, so I try to avoid them when I can. The Windows 10 UI is a particularly egregious example. The sun deck on my farm is my ideal development environment.

However, I can imagine that someone who generally works in a dark environment would prefer a dark background so as not to blast their eyes with light.

On 1) sure, I'm not discounting that. Great PR for the members. For the union itself? For the concept of a union? Not so much.

2) I said this further down the thread, but isn't that table stakes? If you're going to advocate for your members, you yourself need to have a support base beyond that membership. Otherwise you get the situation we've got now, where a request in support of the members is viewed negatively precisely because it's coming from a union.

3) Again, table stakes. Especially so if union members buy into the negative-PR-driven image and create a feedback loop.
1. seems like a chicken and egg problem. I'm sure that the Debian developers wouldn't mind shipping it if it made sense (see 2).

2. is a fair point. At this point in Rust's life I see how avoiding binary conpatibility questions makes sense. Is anybody even working on it, though? Otherwise Rust could be making system-provided, dynamically linked libraries almost impossible due to earlier design decisions without consideration for BC.

How do people feel about Plotly?

I've been using it for years and by far it's been the easiest plotting library (while still being really flexible).

The company is very active in developing, for example recently adding plotly_express, which lets me get charts with one liners like: px.line(df, x='x_column', y='y_column')

I'm not affiliated with Plotly but just curious what people think since I find it to be an awesome library but I rarely hear about it or meet people who use it.

So I sold my rental unit years ago...the landlord business just isn't as much fun as the brochure says it should be. But if I were still in it, and I had reasonable tenants, I would be doing everything I could to avoid evicting them. Who, exactly, are you going to get to replace them in this environment? What's the point of going through that miserable (for everybody involved) process?

Where is this? Depending on where, tenant laws may prevent your immediate eviction if you continue to pay your rent, even after the lease expires.
The tax system is architected to benefit commercial landlords. The government basically pays you to hold underutilized property, as you can use the losses to offset income in other parts of the business at a premium rate.

On top of that, property taxes are usually based on revenue, so holding property is cheap. I did work for a guy who owned a bunch of vacant lots that paid less taxes than my house. He "rented" the lots to some other affiliated company, who in turn made a bunch of money on parking, etc.

The tiny tear that I would shed for real estate people is smaller then even cable and telephone companies.

You are heavily punished for this comment but instead of giving you another flag or downvote I hope there is a learning opportunity here:

- There are adults who cannot swim!

- There are adults who cannot milk a cow if their life depends on it!

- There are adults who cannot tell you 6 teams from premier league

- There are adults who cannot tell you the rules of baseball, basketball, football

- There are adults who cannot say even half of the American states or capitals

- There are adults who cannot tell you which countries are members of the European Union

- There are adults who cannot drive a car

- etc

It is frightening!

Yeah, the government should not allow these mass evictions to happen if they plan to stay solvent.

A ton of people who have had homes (in one form of another) suddenly losing them through no fault of their own, especially if they don't have the income to rent anywhere or family to move in with, are not going to just sit and take it, nor should they.
I think it's a social status quo deadlock. People want to appear flawless because any flaw in one domain will affect how they are seen in other domains. It's a signal that says "Look at this person making mistakes, he/she is worst than all these other people that didn't make one!" [1].

Best way to avoid making mistakes ? Not trying.
At this point, fighting may make the difference as to if I am homeless for my 40th birthday. I spent 6 months in a wheelchair in this apartment in the last year. Moving isn't something that I can physically do myself - and family is several states away.
The US homeless population stands at 567K [0] at the time in 2019. And for those that live in urban areas, it feels like the number is twice that already. I've met a few who were already at a marginal state prior to 2009 and the GFC is what pushed them over that precipice. Things haven't gotten a whole lot better for those that have managed to hang on to the lower class. And if you were paying attention the working class either didn't vote or voted for a demagogue to stick it to the do nothing elites.

> There’s already a lot of civil unrest not from just the BLM protesters but also the people scared to lose their jobs, homes, etc. before that.

I just want to point out that the cause of the civil unrest is

A) The history of consequence-free, system-wide racist violence in police departments across the US.

B) The violent response of police departments to the peaceful portion of the protests.

Yes, there have been riots contributing to civil unrest as well — some out of a misplaced justified rage, some from various political groups instigating, and some from people (probably unemployed, considering the unemployment rate) looting stores.

But I would still argue that if police had responded differently to the peaceful portion of the protests the riots would have been smaller. And now we are seeing an effect somewhat like that.

I know it probably wasn’t your intention but I think it’s both inaccurate and an easy trap to fall into to posit BLM protests as a source of unrest — they are fundamentally a _response_.

Lastly, as I know this is a charged topic, I’d like to encourage respondents to do their homework (if one hasn’t already) on the various reputable news sites prior to responding or making counter-claims.

While I’m not citing sources a relatively quick search of most of the reputable, relatively fact-based news organizations out there provides support for what I’m arguing, I think.

[EDIT: You could also list the astoundingly incompetent federal response to the coronavirus as another root cause of current civil unrest, IMHO. Along with, if we are being real, the words of a president who clearly is stoking civil unrest as a re-election strategy. I think that’s a pretty clear statement of fact irrespective of ones political beliefs.]

Odd analogy to use with Microsoft Windows, since GPT-3’s source is available, along with a series of papers that enables anyone with the money and knowledge to implement it themselves.
Protecting work in this manner exists because the prevailing culture is that jobs solve social issues - we can't give the disadvantaged money directly because socialism, but we can pressure companies to make-work jobs because having a job means you deserve to be human, and it also creates situations where people want to protect their jobs for their income rather than any other reason.

A UBI can possibly help prevent this type of silliness.

Many people don’t have any financial role models in their lives, especially at young ages. It’s not like the school systems teach children about saving, and especially not in the more underfunded districts.

I’m much more inclined to blame maladaptive behaviors on systemic failures to educate people and to provide them opportunity than I am to blame individuals.

Sure, in every system with live agents there will be bad actors and those with poor behavior, but when the system is overrun with examples of this, perhaps it’s the system we should be looking at, not individuals.
Aren’t we smart, fellow behavioural scientists
It's my general impression that the ones who say "Don't worry, we care about you" ARE the baddies, they're not aligned with their own public image (why? I don't know, they should be, maybe they can't overcome their own egos). The ones you should be trusting are the ones who go "Don't trust me, but these are my principles"

Although we're far from figuring out the mind in general, much less specifically to certain individuals, there's growing evidence that minds are a collective of sub-units which vie for conscious attention but are nonetheless active in subconscious even if "you" don't know it.

As an example, one part of your mind could be extremely conditioned to want to please and be with someone who is (objectively) abusing you and so you think you're having a good time when they do show you attention, while another part of your mind hates them for hurting you. There are countless examples of how different parts of a single mind can be at odds with each other, and depending on when you think deeply about an experience, can both have enjoyed and not enjoyed an experience.

It's not unreasonable to think that similar mechanics are at play with more subtle, less social-based mechanics. Food (and drugs) have a lot of this going on too.
Wow, that kinda sounds like my dream job. Do you mind sending me a plain link in an email?
Well, eating at a restaurant with my wife, I said "This is really good!"

She looked askance, said "Well, its a little salty".

"Yeah, I guess it is."

"And not really very hot"

"Oh, yeah. Hm."

"And there no spice in it. Kinda plain."

"Dang, you're right"

So was I enjoying it? Or the experience of being out with the wife and not having to cook? Or just hungry and anything would do? And I'd mis-attributed what I was enjoying. Clearly my 'subjective experience' was not very, well, objective.
Yeah, enumerating why something sucks is trivial. Anyone can do that about anything. Yet for some reason it's tempting to do it. Maybe because it makes us feel like a critic?

For some reason it takes more effort to see the positives in something or someone, even ourselves.

It's often a good practice to stop and think of the positives of something. Maybe it's not so obvious. Why did someone decide to build it this way? They probably are well aware of the downsides (after all, they're the one who built it) yet they saw some upsides. They must have thought the upsides outweighed the downsides. What were they? The harder that question is to answer, I think the more useful the practice is.

Internet (and HN) discourse would be a lot better if we did more of that.

I know it's a challenge for me -- it's really easy to get stuck in a negative thought loop, especially while spending so much time on social media (incl Twitter, Reddit, and HN) where we like to award ourselves points for being critical.
Tax such incomes at higher rates and invest in the infrastructure that would necessarily support such people anyway were they to become destitute. As a surprising benefit, people who do require welfare of some kind for reasons beyond their control will also be helped. Avoid passing moral judgement on post-tax expenditure - if people live less than ideal lives at that point, that's indeed on them.

Is that an unreasonable perspective?

You can enjoy what you want. The article we are discussing has measurable claims:

1. Easier to read

2. Eye Strain

3. Battery savings

Your subjective "studies" about that are irrelevant if you put them in contrast to proper scientific studies for those things - if you don't measure them properly. And that's not how you feel about it. That's what I was saying.

And it does not matter for that whether you like dark or bright mode, whether you follow the article or speak against it :) That might be part of the confusion.
> Also health reasons have the advantage that it is a legal minefield to ask for details.

FTFY. 'Health reasons' are a subject that companies typically won't probe into because of existing legislation around Employers knowing employee's health information (And/or health discrimination lawsuit exposure).

'Family Issues' OTOH is something that's rude to ask about but far less likely to be problematic to actually go into. Also something that I probably -would- ask about in an interview because I'd like to know whether they could come up again.

Entering your home without your consent is definitely illegal. You might be able to use the threat of suing over that alone as something to get your landlord to renew your lease (e.g. have a lawyer write a letter about them entering your home without your consent, and offering lease renewal as the "settlement"/alternative to going to court over it.)
I agree with what you're saying. However, I think the parent's point is that people without education or a good understanding of the scientific process feel like they are accepting it (or not) based on faith.

I think this total lack of understanding of how the scientific process works is one of the biggest problems facing America today.
We've tried free and low cost housing for decades in the US and its been a disaster every single time. Every. Single. Time.
The problem with that is that owners are also short on cash so when the government doesn't allow evictions, they will also need to disallow the inevitable defaults on mortgages.

This will, of course, eventually be paid for by the US government. That money isn't free and will continue our entrenchment in stagflation.
