+1 for Prusa. I don't think you'd regret it.

As an activity, 3d printing involves "part design", "printing" and "3d printer tuning and maintenance".

I've used a Wanhao D6 and a couple flavours of CR10. I also have 3 Prusa minis and a friend with MK3S. The Prusas require the least "fettling" of any consumer level printer I've come across. They just pump out parts with minimal supervision.

My non-Prusa printers are all "for parts" now because I found myself spending more time on printer maintenance and modification than making useful things. I do keep a CR10-S5 around because I enjoy tinkering sometimes and it can be fun to make giant things.

There are plenty of great FDM printers on the market right now (Ender 5, CR10s Pro v2) which are not far off, but at your budget I think the MK3S is still the best choice.
I agree, 400ms is a long time.

I’d be over the moon if most websites did things within 50ms, even 100ms would be a significant and welcome improvement.

Anecdotally, when I’m working on the database at work, the olap database (Clickhouse) feels amazingly snappy because it’ll respond in around 30-60ms, but SQL server feels like molasses, even when doing queries each dB is designed for.
It depends. Some orgs have IT credit-cards specifically for this purpose, and those usually have limits from $1k to $10k.

Aaand yet all the worst outbreaks early on were in the bluest parts of blue-or-purple states, and were under the control of Democrat mayors and governors. Who are also the ones with real authority, incidentally.

Now, the red parts of the map aren't exactly doing well right now either - but let's not pretend that only the Republicans fucked up on this one.

> have a national lockdown for 1-2 months or so with everyone paid to stay home so that total number of new cases drops very low, then remove the lockdown and use comprehensive contact tracing and testing to quickly respond to new outbreaks.

I honestly think that Trump could not have done this. If he had tried - which would have taken a large expansion of executive power - at a time that this would have helped, I wouldn't be surprised if he was impeached. You might remember what happened when Trump banned (a lot of) travel from China - it wasn't people saying that this was insufficient, it was people saying that it was racist and unconstitutional. Do you really think that a response a thousand times as intense would have gotten a positive response?
> One difference in philosophy of Lisp and Haskell is that the latter makes liberal use of many tiny functions that do one single task. This is known as composability, or the UNIX philosophy.

Have you ever looked at a Unix man page?

And while Common Lisp has some functions that might be swiss army knives of functionality, that is not "the philosophy of Lisp", it's a particular style. Clojure and Scheme are just as much Lisp as CL, and as other people have noted, their style is very similar to Haskell.
Though to be fair, on desktop at least, I don't think the site breaks modern web conventions in any egregious way which compromise UX. In most critical respects it works like any other website: it scrolls normally, it has headings and subheadings, it links off to pages located at different URLs, and those inner pages have reasonably conventional layouts.

I agree that the mobile experience is broken. They should rethink the layout to add the summaries back onto the main page.

If I was offering advice to the designers, I would suggest they abandon the obsession with 100vh layouts and always have a little bit of scrollable content peeking in from the bottom. 100vh layouts evokes the slideshow metaphor, which changes how people expect interaction to function.

I would also restyle the "LEARN MORE" buttons to make them clearer. My brain somehow completely ignored them on first viewing. I saw them on subsequent viewings but the low contrast makes them not seem very clickable, I think they could be easily misinterpreted as shortcuts to the next content "slide".
Hard no.

The first law of UX is that human resources are precious. Therefore design must seek to maximize the economy of user time, cognition, and effort.
Yes. Those are real model numbers and my real experience.

Probably not, no matter how you prioritize the two prongs of that, and no matter which construction of war chest size you take, since Alphabet and Apple both less social media involvement (though Alphabet has tried in the past to have more) and more cash on hand, while both Apple and Amazon have less social media involvement and greater market cap.

When I started out with Python, I was learning Haskell in parallel. As a result, my early Python code ended up being influenced by Haskell (I wrote many small functions that performed a single task). But it was somewhat frustrating. Later, I developed my Python style and began heavily relying on optional arguments through `kwargs` and duck typing. That made my programs much more effective and easier to reason about. Now I realize that my later Python code became more Lisp-like.
You know I asked around recently and it seems to be that all three are now optional. Perhaps Apple has pushed for this, because I recall 4K and 64K support being a hard requirement.
Information is state or configuration of one system that tells you something about another system. The pixels on your screen contain information about the state of my brain because the particular pattern of lights communicates the thoughts in my head. Information is abstract because it is independent of the medium: the pixels on the screen, pressure waves in the air, marks on paper, etc, can all be used to carry the same information.

Supervene means something is constituted by the configuration of some substance. Or the more common definition: A supervenes on B if there can be no change in A without a corresponding change in B.

>Eliminativists and other materialists have consistency refused to address these fundamental problems

I admit that people have reason to be frustrated with certain materialists, Dennett chief among them. I have my share of frustrations with him as well. But there's this trend I see with non-materialists (online and professionals) showing active disdain for materialism/physicalism that is entirely unhelpful. Ultimately we're all just trying to solve one of the hardest problems of all. Genuine efforts to move the conversation forward should be welcomed. Intractable disagreement just points towards the need for better arguments.

> First place modules

First-class modules.

The points that you're bringing up are points that 99% of programmers don't care about. You're fighting about OCaml vs Haskell features but the really is that most people looking at alternatives in this niche are just going to go with Go or Rust (neither of which has higher-kinded types).

The reality is that OCaml offers a very simple and elegant base language, a powerful module system, a limited amount of type-level programming support (locally abstract types, GADTs, etc.), and probably the biggest draw of all: super-fast compile times. Seriously, no matter how impressive the Haskell compiler is–ocamlc and ocamlopt and BuckleScript all run rings around every variant of Haskell compiler.

You are criticizing OCaml on criteria that it honestly did not choose to optimize in. Would you criticize Haskell on its lack of a powerful module system, on its lack of strictness by default, on its complex runtime, on its confusing error messages that arise from ad-hoc polymorphism, and on its slow compiles? Sure you could, but it didn't choose to optimize for those. It doesn't make sense to fixate on things that were never a goal in the first place. If those things are your goals then you would simply find a compiler that offers them.
Yup. I worked for a hosting company once that added a zero to the price of service for an NBA team that wanted a 12 hour SLA instead if a 24 hour SLA. Another NBA team bought the highest priced of solutions i offered and told me as they were signing, "we know the least expensive option was probably overkill for our needs, but it is important that we have your full attention."
Vine was married to Twitter for login / registration. It made the most sense for Twitter to buy it. Microsoft's hitting a momentum of growth currently, which might be a good time for them to make some acquisitions, they've also started booting back up some of their game studios as well.
Here's an article from from April this year 2020

https://www.techradar.com/news/phantomlance-malware-breaches...

Dozens of malicious apps infected with the malware are being distributed via the Play Store and alternate app stores such as APKpure and APKCombo, often targeting users to spy on their habits and steal data.

According to security firm Kaspersky, this malware campaign has been live for over 4 years, and is likely the work of the OceanLotus advanced persistent threat (APT) group, thought to be based out of Vietnam.

> aren't food from your culture, they are cheap knockoffs

Tons of stuff in a grocery store are "cheap knockoffs", are you seriously proposing that there should be zero ethnic food unless it is 100% authentic and expensive?

It's like people don't actually care about minorities, about what minorities actually want, they only care about appearing to care.

No, but success brings out nothing but contrarians. You don't get an article on hacker news saying everything is fine and working well even if that is the reality.

You can't make money selling alternative medicine by claiming that medicine works. Newer languages, in my opinion, are going backwards in a lot of ways out of fear of ideas that shouldn't be feared.

If you try Pleroma, do yourself a favor and also install the Soapbox-FE frontend. Much cleaner, customizable and familiar to Twitter users than the default one.

Regarding the backend. It does seem that Mastodon was the first one and has more functionality, but (1) Pleroma is catching up and (2) waaaaay lighter on resources. Mastodon is built on Rails, requires PostgreSQL, Redis, a task server (sidekiq) and optionally Elasticsearch. Pleroma goes by with just PostgreSQL and is built on Elixir.

Regardless of technology, what I'd really like to see in a future version of these AP-systems is the ability to manage multiple-domains with a single database / application server. Right now all implementations assume that the domain of the backend is the domain of every user in the instance. So this means that if I want to host Mastodon for a user with a custom domain, I'll have to spin a instance/database just for this user. If I could have a separate mapping between account / domain, one single instance could manage everyone.
What percentage of people are like this?

We can have different edition of phones for both iOS and Android. One could be unlocked and allows side loading while the other doesn't.

You're correct, government in the USA and Australia for instance, is massively profit-taking via the taxes to the point that they are taking in more revenue per pack than the tobacco companies.

You’re lisp syntax is weird but you’re right:

The start argument specified where to start removing things and the end or count arguments specify where to stop removing things (ie at an index or after a certain number of elements respectively).

I claim this is a pretty good argument against the keyword arguments as they don’t necessarily do what one expects.
I totally disagree, and if we're talking about slurs then they can have word censorship applied (the same way media will report on the use of the N-word with * to obscure most of it).

Sorry, but if you have the power to ruin people's lives over a standard you cannot clearly define and after the fact won't even provide their speech as context for your decision, then that's just straight political censorship.

I also draw a huge distinction between publishers repeating the words of others and people actually saying those things.

By your standards, the publisher of Mein Kampf reprints is just as guilty as Hitler himself -- even though they had nothing to do with writing it.

> This is actually pretty useful, but sort of sad it drags the whole go ecosystem with it (who knows what go will look like in 20 years and if this app will still compile and work).

This is something which the CS community needs to solve, imho. I.e. provide an executable language with a formal specification that is guaranteed to be available indefinitely. And to make this more useful, other programming languages should provide back-ends targeting this language.
Thanks for the response, and that is true. But I am cautious about assessing how Apple handles guidelines by assessing how they treat big companies like RH. They can crush/heckle a lot of nascent ideas/companies but I doubt they would do that kind of thing to RH for PR reasons.

Looking at Unamuno's Abel Sanchez..

'hermanos' is translated 'brethren' - super-archaic.

p8, 'dedicado' in 'te has dedicado a pintar?' is translated 'hardcore'.

'sí' in 'Que sí, hombre' is translated 'do', as in do-re-mi, I guess.

p5,11-12 has 'quieres/quiero repeatedly translated as "with friends like those who needs enemies". Which is just inexplicable. I can't imagine how that would happen.

Corrupted dictionary?

..and most of the trickiest words on a page aren't translated, maybe because not in your dictionary or they have 'lo' or 'se' appended.
I'm also a FB advertiser. Here my thoughts on it:

1) Facebook's reach is unique. If you want to share a message that's important to you with groups of people you care about reaching in the world, there's no better way to reach them at scale.

2) Facebook has had a number of negative sounding news cycles in the past few years (Cambridge Analytica, etc.), and data shows that the average American hasn't changed their behavior based on them. 70% of all Americans and Canadians use Facebook or Instagram at least once a month, and 55% of all Americans and Canadians use it at least once per day. Facebook's monthly and daily user counts have only grown, including this last quarter.

3) Very few advertisers ended up cutting spend during the boycott. Many who did so wanted to cut ad spend in a COVID environment anyway. For instance, Unilever and Coca-Cola also paused Twitter ads, which has nothing to do with the boycott.

4) I myself believe that, at least in comparison to other companies like Google, Facebook does try to police hate speech, and it's a hard job.

It is and I know you'd make that point but it's better to be fragile and short lived than completely impossible. I have a least one of these hacks that was completely necessary that has been in place for years.
Not sure the logic on that works outs. On the day ads are banned tobacco companies see a drop in their costs, but no change to revenue. The price of their cigarettes neither goes up or down.

Without a price change the government can’t benefit because the tax is proportional to the price.

So tobacco companies see a drop in costs, no change in revenue, which results in increased profits.

In the future the government could increase the tax rate, and try to force tobacco companies to drop prices to compensate, which could allow governments to extract the extra profits from reduced adverts. But that doesn’t strike me as the kind of behaviour governments participate in, a little too complicated and risky. Also very likely to have unforeseen consequences as it’s unlikely that every tobacco company was spending the same proportion of revenue on ads.

Not to say that tax rates didn’t go up. Just seems unlikely to be directly linked to the banning of ads. More likely they went up just because they can keep hiking the taxes until all the tobacco companies go bust.
I wonder if this counts as false or misleading advertising. I think this has been happening too much lately with tech.

So the opinion is information around advertising is not really fluid enough, not sure in practice.

I think perhaps the definition of a "platform", or perhaps even organized markets like a stock exchange, is a limitation/mitering/constraint/curation of choice, if that is the right term? Versus a complete free for all. The question is how much choice?

I think a tentpole of Apple is that the billing should all flow through one source, clean and uncomplicated, along with a set guidelines of program coding/behavior. It happens to make Apple the gatekeeper, and there are deeper questions thereof, but that is the constraint inherent in the App Store.
