After a lot of retail day traders lost their shirts in the dot-com crash, FINRA made a rule restricting pattern day trading to those with over 25K in their accounts.

Yes, my analogy doesn't go too far. We're sentient coal, being fed bread and circuses as the trade-off for being burned away. We still have some choice, power, and control.

Indeed. I decided not to use MathML for various reasons:

1. The syntax is horrible (for writing by hand).

2. I'm more interested in computation than presentation, so something closer to S-expressions along the lines of Mathematica feels more comfortable to me.

3. The progress so far on defining semantics for content MathML has failed to impress me.

Concretely, I think if you are trying to do semantic mathematics, you need an implementation of the semantics in software, not just a hand-written spec. Ideally this would be backed by a formal theorem proving system. So far I just do randomized testing using symbolic evaluation and interval arithmetic. See this writeup for more details: https://arxiv.org/abs/2003.06181

Two ACCC decisions that the rest of the world would do well to copy: merchants are allowed to pass on credit card fees to the customer, but the fee charged has to be reasonably in line with the actual cost:

https://www.accc.gov.au/business/pricing-surcharging/payment...

The first part had Visa/MC howling (because they're normally insistent that merchants hide their fee) and the second pissed off airlines, hotels etc that loved to tack on high fixed charges as payment fees, but in both cases consumers are obviously the winners.

The code I’m still ashamed of (2016)
How do you have a “standard” without each provider having to wait on a committee anytime they want any improvements?

Even the almighty Terraform which for some reason people still think makes it easy not to experience “cloud lock-in” has cloud specific provisioners.
The recurring theme in this whole discussion is "it depends", and that is the case here as well.

If you're building a relatively simple UI, using common features like buttons and text boxes and maybe some simple charts, you might well do what has been mentioned in this thread. You can identify reusable pieces that the designers can use to define layouts and specify styling and that the programmers can use to implement those things in code. This is an easy method of UI design and implementation, and often it is all you need.

If you're building something more challenging -- a rich document editor, a game, an interactive 3D visualisation of a complicated data set, basically anything that isn't just a combination of standard controls and UI patterns -- then the main part in your UI might not fit that component model very well at all. Now you're going to have to approach both the UI design and the programming from a different direction, just as you would in desktop, mobile or embedded software. This is harder, because you're moving away from patterns and tools that are well understood and readily available, and instead you're building something original. However, it's also much more flexible for the same reason, and sometimes that's what you need.

Even in the latter case, you will often need standard features in your UI that can be designed and built as individual components as well. There's no rule that says you can't have a hybrid with both reusable components for the simpler, recurring features and then one or more features that are more sophisticated.

That's clearly not true. Amongst others, credit companies in Australia do this frequently and haven't had issues with the ACCC over it.

I can at least anecdotally say that I am in a privileged position of being enormously happier after COVID-19 shut my workplace down and every employee was told to work from home. I associate this entirely with my commute being reduced to nothing. I hope working from home in IT becomes the future standard. Big expensive cities are not worth it.

To expand on the article. One thing I've noticed is that a lot of people in my age group (18-24 years old) are desperately trying to find happiness in "experiences" but finding emptiness due to social media. Often for them, it is not achieving something amazing like a long bicycle trip, or summiting a mountain that brings them joy, but they are thinking about the resulting Instagram photos instead.

Communication tools like Snapchat are a little bit healthier. Most people use Snapchat not to show off, but rather to regularly share their lives with a small group of friends.

Certain social media platforms like Instagram or TikTok seem entirely designed to try to get their users to pursue building a following and attach their happiness to that. Some unfortunate people end up having all the joy of traveling and meeting new people robbed from them as a result. They know that "experiences" are better for happiness than possessions, but somehow the result is a bastardized version the actual experience.

Knowing all of this, I am not taking a holier-than-thou position. I myself have accounts on several social media platforms, but make a conscious effort to not get drawn into their dopamine manipulating designs.

But what if the students assigned to the less desirable building really were less happy, but they had made other changes to their life to make up for it? Maybe they spent less time in the building, or improved the aesthetics of their room, or spent more time on hobbies or socializing.

Obstacles to Learning from Incidents
In my family's plot there is a 100+ year old stone that's never been readable in my lifetime. We were always curious. Recently visiting now with kids, it dawned on me standing there that we could rub it with one of their crayons. It worked INCREDIBLY well. The unreadable stone was now clear as day on the paper.
I was so disappointed when I learned that I'd been duped in regards to Terraforms abilities. My colleagues had explained that Terraform would allow us to avoid being locked in to own cloud provider, because it's "cloud agnostic" so we could easily move to between Azure, GCP and AWS.

Imagine my disappointment when I learned that no actually, Terraform will need to know which type of EC2 instance you want, you need to configure an AWS load balancer, not just "a load balancer".

Terraform does NOTHING to help you move between cloud platforms aside from providing a language that will work across providers. You still need to understand how everything ties together and is configured in each platform, now you just can use the examples in the documentation or the newest features.
The value in that scenario is being removed from the consumers not the companies, the consumer is the source and they exchange their data for services that would otherwise cost money. So in effect such a law would make the people poorer. Europe will probably like the idea because they've given up on fostering a competitive software industry but for nations that want to matter in cyber space like the US, China, Japan, and Korea, it's hard to imagine such a tax (essentially a production tax) actually benefitting consumers wallets.

That's an interesting Malthusian argument.

> If the helmet didn't decelerate any impulse to the head, the range of impacts that it could theoretically protect the wearer from would actually be quite narrow.

I'm ambivalent.

There's a tension in PHP-land between PHP's roots as a low-ish level, get-it-done, hackish language, with its big standard library and simple scalar types, and the better-organized and quite vocal developers who want it to be more Java-like, with great big frameworks and many deeply-nested complex class hierarchies. Instead of unwieldy hobbyist-hacker balls of mud, you build enterprise-scale balls of mud.

Named arguments don't do a lot for the first group. It looks like the big point in favor is not having to look up a reference for which-arguments-go-where in functions anymore, but a good IDE already does that for you.

But there is a common anti-pattern where you have some polymorphic function or interface, and you want to accrete your arguments somewhere and then bundle them up and call the function, so then you see things like [1]:

call_user_func($function, ['length' => $n, 'foo' => $bar, ...]);

...and that is bad because it totally bypasses all of PHP's type-checking and leaves it up to the called function to sanity-check the input types instead of letting the compiler do it, and basically nobody does that anyway.

So named parameters would fix that at least, which would be nice. I'm just not looking forward to the impact this is going to have on code readability, because everyone (including this article) is going to go, "oh, now my parameter list is too long!", and break the function signature into one-line-per-parameter, which is vile.

[1]: I'm guilty of this too.
I have the feeling that docker compose only supports a small subset of ECS. ECS has stuff like Load Balancers, schedulers and a parameter store in very specific ways. I don't think you'd want to use docker compose for that on AWS.

I wonder if this is one of the reasons big tech companies run buses — to make the commute less painful and blend into the background of life.

Speak for yourself. If each line indicates what it is the parameter for I couldn’t care less.
