I mean... not to be contrarian but does the average user need to know a URL?

Do I need to know an address to drive my car somewhere?

My knowledge that a place exists and I want to go there is sufficient to get me there, without having the physical address memorized.

As a power-user I obviously navigate through URL far more than the average user, but I am not convinced that say a 50 year old nurse using my web software needs to ever touch a URL even a single time, or that it would be beneficial to her user experience to even know what it is.

Not OP.

I've an issue with sleep related binge-eating: fullness induces sleepiness, so when I'm awake at night and want to be asleep I'll eat - basically an extra meal. Alcohol too. For me the root issue is other mental health problems.

Sleep problems can readily lead to weight gain.

I can see how apnoea that exhibits as waking up a lot might lead someone attempting to fall into heavier sleep by overeating.

IF, paired with lots of exercise, was working for me before the current crisis.

Ask HN: Knowing a bit about everything or everything about a bit?
When I worked in consulting, I was constantly thrown into work I had little idea how to approach; build us a PoC of a mobile app in React Native, spike out an event streaming backend running on K8s, see if you can index a few hundred unstructured Word documents to make them searchable, etc.

I found this to be terrifying yet exhilarating. The short timelines of these projects (averaged six weeks) coupled with the "tech spike" nature of the work gave me countless opportunities to experiment with different technologies and approaches to problem solving. While the architecture and code weren't often the best, they served their purpose well as demos.

What constantly nagged at me however was the outlook that I'd always only gain surface-level knowledge of the things I work with; by the time the implementation was working, it was time to move on to something else. This eventually caused me to move to an engineering role in a product company where I'd get the chance to specialise in an area I was passionate about.

Fast-forward to now, where I've spent almost a year in the same codebase working to solve problems in the same domain. I've picked up an immense about of knowledge on Go, REST APIs, and good engineering practices, but I can't kick the feeling that having such a narrow focus is detrimental to my learning.

I'm sure I'm not the only person who's felt this way, and I get there are tradeoffs with both approaches. Has anyone managed to strike a balance? Are there good reasons to favour one over the other?
All WWW was supposed to mean was HTTP accessible. Now that every domain why should a user using a http* browser have to specify that they intend to access it via http* when they have no other choice? Either the server responds or it doesn't. www.foo.com and foo.com both return http traffic then they are both part of the world wide web.

The specific of how you've decided to run your site or serve your pages is irrelevant. You may serve a page depending on if the http request came over port 80 or some other port or via http or https or at this time or that time or other.

> $people not knowing stuff should not mean that everyone should get dumber to match $people.

Exactly. We should push on the opposite direction (educate people and make the concepts clearer).
SJW was (once more) popularized and turned into a pejorative by the sexist, anti-feminist crowd during gamergate and it is still primarily used by similar people trying to discredit liberal activism. So it's best to only use it when you're objectively confident a sociopolitical contribution is primarily agenda-driven and by itself counterproductive.

Alternatively, people can contribute to turn back that term into something neutral or complimentary. Protests, for instance, are a good opportunity to find people who can serve as role models.
Changing from blacklist and whitelist to blocklist and allowlist is one of the many small things we can do that makes our black colleagues feel seen, heard, and welcome in our workplaces. I support it. No one thinks changing language is enough to eliminate the systemic racism oppressing black people in the US. Eliminating that will require work and personal change. If you can't even stop using black to mean negative in the workplace and substitute it with more accurate words - the new words are clearer - then you likely are not prepared for the real work ahead. I personally refuse to work for any company that is not committing to that work.

>Capitalism (aka money flowing from country A to country B) is cross-border, freedom-agnostic, and amoral (not IM-moral)(utter lack or morals instead of bad morals).

The idea that capitalism is an amoral system is presented as if it were fact, but I can think of several philosophers of morality who have arguments for the morality or immorality of capitalism.

That’s a great post. Building “component-oriented” software platforms is a fascinating mix of CS theory and gritty practical engineering.

I’m disappointed to hear even Swift couldn’t produce a satisfying result under their constraints & trade-offs.
The underlying theory in your post seems to be that it is more profitable to not sell something than to sell something due to economies of scale.

That doesn't pass a basic sanity check when applied to food. It is much more likely something else is the problem rather than that farmers are allowed to maximise their profits.

I do agree with a basic premise that there needs to be a focus on redundancy and resiliency and that the lack thereof is a major problem. But the assumption that it doesn't make on-the-face-of-it sense for farmers to sell their produce directly to customers is in need of supporting evidence.

No, Brad Cox thought that the only way reuse could happen at scale would be via micropayments, which of the time he considered to be integral to the software IC idea:
https://deprogrammaticaipsum.com/brad-cox/

It turns out, of course, that the assumption was faults, and trying to track every dynamic use of software to pay its makers was completely impractical.

What actually happened is similar to what happened with tcp/ip. The phone companies couldn't see how it would be useful, because its lack of per packet accounting meant it couldn't charge for every packet. Instead, by throwing away all the complex accounting systems, TCP/IP could grow far behind what the phone system could do.

Information was copied, not stolen. This is about as correct as arguments around piracy equating downloading a film to stealing a car. The other party still has the information, it's not stolen.

In the case of a movie it was illegally copied, this is illegal under copyright law but is NOT stealing.

Copying classified information you have been granted access to by the military because of your security clearance is illegal and punishable by court marshall but it's NOT stealing.

A journalist disclosing classified information IS legal and always has been. If it wasn't then all of the journalists that published the cables in NYTimes and friends would be guilty of the same charges as Assange, i.e copying classified information from some source on the Internet and then disclosing it to their readers/viewers.

However there is potentially SOME argument that Assange may be running afoul of the Espionage act because he is ACCUSED of aiding and abetting a member of the US military in exfiltrating classified information. This is illegal but it's definition is so broad that it would most likely need to be heard by the Supreme Court to clarify.

i.e he isn't being charged with stealing because he didn't steal shit. He isn't being charged with disclosing secrets because that is legal. He is being charged with helping someone do something illegal and that is entirely different.
I can't find anything in the paper, but maybe it is possible to be not quite so greedy with the bandwidth thereby reducing the BER to acceptable levels.

On the other hand, high BER doesn't preclude usefulness, one just would need different FEC to deal with that. Maybe a pratical implementation with a robust FEC will still come ahead in useful throughput.

I've run into the problem a few times, trying to run an old version of a software for research purposes. But for daily usage, this misses the concept of open source.

Smalll thing, Beta thalassaemia isn’t a disease — as far as I know. It’s a disorder or a syndrome.

Definition of disease: Resulting from a pathophysiological response to external or internal factors.

Definition of disorder: A disruption of the disease to the normal or regular functions in the body or a part of the body.

Edit: I have it myself (and my kids do too), and I often correct people on this. Since I rather have a disorder than a disease:)
Agreed that it's been a number of factors coinciding.

You can build websites already in SVG with no HTML — not even a wrapper page. You just need to configure the web server to serve SVG instead of HTML by default. e.g. in Apache:

DirectoryIndex index.svg index.html ...

You can also embed HTML inside SVG if you want, or HTML in SVG in HTML. I've only tried it for small demos and not seen it (SVG-only sites) used in the wild, but it does work.

I like it, and it's great that people are thinking about it.

One thing that felt unexplored is socialization, and in particular meeting new people, and in particular dating. I know that a lot of people use dating apps nowadays, but many (most?) use them only for first contact, and still prefer to meet in shared spaces like bars, which is harder to accomplish if these are scarcer and if people live much further away.

One of the effects of the move to concentrated coed spaces (factories and offices) and of the increase of housing prices in certain areas seems to have been an increase in the number of people who enter into a relationship with someone of the same economic class. But if your coworkers and colleagues all live two states away, and if more uniform land prices make it more likely for people of different incomes to live in the same area, there might a reversal of this change.
I'm also interested in what software you're using for this. I've looked into tools that support Zettelkasten and they all seem to have made inexplicable changes to the system. The most significant to me is the change from using a hierarchical, meaningful numbering scheme to using timestamps that lack all form of context/hierarchy. Context in the sense that unless you're the Rain Man, there's no way to fit timestamps into a conceptual framework to refer to in your mind. You're always 100% reliant on your tools to find what you need.

Very nice article.

Regarding COM's approach, I just wish that Windows team would care to take more inspiration from Delphi, C++ Builder and .NET integration of COM (now UWP) into their infrastructure instead of coming up with "macho programming" frameworks like ATL/WRL.

C++/CX seemed to actually hit a sweet point, almost like C++ Builder's approach, but it was overthrown due to the championing of C++/WiRT, not much better than WRL in regards to productivity.

I still hope that if C++/WinRT gets as much push back as UWP happened to suffer, maybe Windows DevTeam will finally accept that providing nice tooling is something that C++ developers on Windows also enjoy having access to.
I don't think you get it.

www.example.com and example.com might be two different websites.

If you want the content at www.example.com and you go to example.com, then may not get the content that you wanted. One might be a shop selling shoes and the other might be a shop selling hats.

If you want a hat and you go to the one selling shoes then you're going to be disappointed.

'www.' doesn't 'mean was HTTP accessible'. You can make any system HTTP accessible, or not if you want to.

It doesn't matter how you or I set up our websites, or whether you or I think it's a good idea to have different websites at these addresses, it matters how other people set up their websites and if they choose to do this or not. Some do! Therefore the user needs the information.

Luckily for me I don't need to consider those things because I don't play games.

But if what you are hinting at is that one should be consistent and refrain from buying not just Sony products but also any others that perform similar stunts then yes I do try to be consistent. However I'm not about to do myself serious harm in the process precisely because I know that I am just one customer out of millions. So I put up with Microsoft because I need Visual Studio for work, I put up with Android because there really is no other alternative ecosystem that supports the applications that I need in the society in which I live.

I rationalize my way out of the problem by buying less of everything on the grounds that I am then simply less likely to have to make such a decision

If all they can use is a massive cleaver (big data tools), and have no experience with scalpels (small, sharp, cheap and fast data tools), IMO your company has a serious, fundamental and systemic problem (no, let's call it failure) towards employee experience, training and knowledge.

Very interesting, but also needed a mention of the crazy "discesista" that was Paolo Savoldelli [1], I think he won a Giro one year based on a crazy descent like that.

In his case I don't think it was only a question of aerodynamics, it never is, it was also that he seemed to know best how much risks he could take when entering a curve (similar to how Formula 1 cars used to be in the past, nowadays they're too "computerized" for that to matter that much anymore).

I don’t get the complaints. This frees up so much space for ads in the address bar. Besides, people are finally certified stupid after decades of dumbing down everything, and they can’t help themselves, and only google knows which site is good or bad.

It's time to remind people again that "Linux" isn't one OS. At best it's kernel source that you get to compile for different architectures. There are distributions ("distros") that package up different sets of kernel, kernel parameters, modules, libraries, utilities, config and glue-scripts, though none of them actually claim backwards or cross-binary compatibility, unless for their own (ie. within major RHELS versions).

It could be nice to not have to worry about all that compatibility and even some upgrade-issues that inevitably ensue. Though the costs can quickly outweigh the benefits, ie. as in the awfulness of "snap" and similar.

Windows do have compatibility and emulation layers, though some older software may still have some issues, it often works. Security-wise it's a good idea to keep patches and upgrades fresh.
