Strategically, I wonder who has the most to lose if the Unreal engine is basically deplatformed from Apple.

iOS is a huge game market, but how many iOS games are powered by Unreal? macOS is a tiny game market.

For game developers, between this and the ARM switch on macOS, this could be a serious death to gaming on macOS.

I would also expect game developers to be mad at Epic to be playing chicken with their game engine, although that may be unexpected fall out. It might drive some game developers to move to other engines although this is probably a stretch.

I say the opposite: Build with "mediocre-first" cross platforms (all of them are mediocre) is long term the MORE costly option.

With native UI, eventually the development will stop. With cross-platform, you will, FOREVER, try to catch up.

Chromium is the best UI toolkit ever created. What exactly are the arguments against Electron?

It's slow to render? Wrong, Electron (Chromium) renders faster than Qt. The Skia engine is optimized to an extent that these other toolkits cannot compete with. It even has a Vulkan backend now.

Single threaded? The render process is--you can use any native multithreaded code you want in another process.

Memory? It's 70MB. That's nothing nowadays. Modern OSes can page it in and out when the application is idling. A lot of these other toolkits are quite heavy too, especially JavaFX in my experience. Also what happens when you need a webview in one of these other toolkits? In Qt you get an embedded instance of Chromium[1] so not only do you have the 70MB of Chromium, you also have the Qt runtime (!).

The reason the Electron app you're using is slow or hogs giants amount of memory is the Javascript code itself is slow. Yes, Slack is a slow monster, but it's a giant codebase that does things that would be simply impossible in Qt, GTK, Swing and others. There's a reason we never saw these types of apps when the only frameworks were Qt and others.

Setting aside the damage done by the advent on internet which helps with search and deliveries, i feel that there's a change in the attitude of people today. I used to walk into the bookshops near my home and university, walk around and browse, the people who worked there were passionate and would recommend titles to you. One of them even helped connect people to book-clubs, i miss those connections. It doesn't seem that people want to spend that kind of time. Browsing UBS, checking titles and finding those with notes marked in pencil and messages for the next reader across books is an experience i would like my children to have.
> Is that really the most common problem?

The most common problem, if you're a really talented engineer, is that you could work for a big company and be paid more in a single year than your business will bring in for its entire lifetime.

Conversely what you really find is, the people running 20+ person companies with tens of millions in investor money to bring in only $1m in revenue a year - they lacked the talent, actually, to just make the money at a big company. That you should start with the assumption that capitalism works, and that the person doing this thing is not stupid but just shut out from a better opportunity.

So maybe you're a really talented engineer but you are foreign so you'd need an H1-B to work for Google. Or maybe you're a former product manager from Microsoft who didn't quit, but was laid off, so you really can't just go and make the money.

A transplant surgeon brings in about $1m in revenue per day for heart transplants. There is no risk there, there is unlimited demand for heart transplants. It's just extremely hard to become a transplant surgeon, it is extremely competitive, much more competitive than making a website. While I'm not suggesting every startup CEO is just a washed-out up-and-coming surgeon, there is other stuff they may have washed out from broadly, like just medicine itself, that led them to chase the worse economics of where they are.
The engine is released with the game, not as a stand-alone binary. The dev tools are a different story, but unrelated to the question.

And even if this did impact the engine, perhaps epic should have thought about that when playing chicken with Apple.
We do have a final long term storage solution for spent swedish waste. Location selected and approved, method tested and the cost has been covered by a nuclear waste fund fee on the produced power. In short it's copper clad steel capsules put in holes surrounded by bentonite clay down in deep shafts dug in stable bedrock. It's probably a waste of good breeder fuel. But it won't leak due to any natural occuring incident in a very, very long time.
I think there is information in english here for the curious. https://www.skb.com/ (They have a nice guided tour down in the research mine the did dig to study water flow and chemistry, can recommend it.http://www.skb.com/research-and-technology/laboratories/the-... )

There is probably other ways of doing it, but saying there is no method ready is wrong. I would prefer to burn it again in a breeder and get 500yr waste instead of 50k yr waste. But if we're going to bury it, this will keep the stuff safe for the time needed.

Gordon Linoff wrote a bit about his habits here[0] but I still can't fathom how he manages to maintain such a rate. Imagine just taking a day or two off – you would then have to write 45 (or 68 answers) the following day. So assuming that he does take a day off every once in a while, this means on non-vacation days his average is even higher.

Well here's the thing - developers have a finite amount of time on which they can work on something. Instead of spending that finite amount of time trying to create great software causing the release to be delayed, you could focus on the core functionality, with a slightly subpar user experience, and start delivering value to your users earlier.

True, and I think there are lot of deniers of how the racist history of the US influences its racist present.

The IDE shouldn't crash by itself (it is extremely rare for the IDE to crash, it used to be less stable at the past but that was around 2006-2007 or so).

However packages (which includes your own widgets) are nothing more than native libraries that become part of the IDE, so any bugs in a package will cause the entire IDE to crash. This is a double edged sword since on one hand you can get a less stable IDE from your own bugs, but on the other hand when you work with a component or widget in the visual editors, you are really working with a "live" instance of that widget that is then serialized as part of the form or data module instead of a mock stand-in object that some other GUI-only designers will give you. Also this allows you to use any TComponent-derived object through a visual editor, not only visual/GUI objects.

There is a LOT of low-hanging fruit when it comes to where to install plain old regular solar.

We could probably spend the next 50-100 years installing as many (regular) solar panels as possible and still have plenty of places left to put more of them.

Obviously it's not bad to develop these technologies, but I think they'll only be useful in niche applications.
Solo Founder here,

Ive tried a bunch of things to get myself into flow state over time - meditation, exercise, journalling etc. they all help.

I'm planning on doing a few every month.

This may have had more to do with with him waving you off than anything else. The type of people police are purportedly there to handle are not those who would do what you did. If this is Baltimore we're talking about, he may be tuned to a much more violent type of normal criminal encounter. Keep in mind that given the limited resources of the judicial system, they are better spent on more disruptive crimes to the social fabric.

Perspective is important in these things. Those that come to you to be dealt with are practically priority zero. They know they screwed up, and as long as you (the officer) is okay, then all's good. They'll sort themselves out.

It's the ones that don't the police are out and willing to do paperwork for.
Those game developers may also benefit from what comes of this ordeal. They too need to pay a 30% cut to Apple (plus some % to Epic for the Unreal Engine).

Just to give some local context about Portland. We're getting some reforms pushed through, and it's now very likely the Mayor will lose his runoff election to someone that has promised far more substantial reforms. That said, the police continue to behave in unaccountable ways including blatantly violating the law on camera. This is going to be a very prolonged fight for reform.

Explaining how the US got to this state is a long discussion, but it helps to understand the origin of the police here in the south was to catch escaping slaves, and in the north was to keep "undesirables" out of wealthy neighborhoods. In more recent times politicians have used the War On Crime rhetoric to motivate people out of fear to vote for them, even though actual violent crime has been steadily falling.

The bulk of his reply was not about pornography. He specifically stated the Catholic Church has no outright ban on nudity, but quoted two paragraphs from the Vatican about "resist[ing] the allurements" of "voyeuristic explorations of the human body" in advertising or other media that "go too far in the exhibition of intimate things".

If advertising material qualifies, nudity in films qualifies.

The herd immunity threshold depends on behavior. It may be at 30% infected when the population is wearing masks and social distancing, but could be 70% if restrictions are removed. I agree that parts of New York City have probably reached herd immunity for current behavior patterns, so restrictions can probably be slightly relaxed, but 70% of the population is still vulnerable to infection, so you can't throw caution to the wind.

Used bookstores are a lot like gardens -- they must be tended daily and grown in 100 ways, year after year. The city I grew up in was legendary for used bookstores, and they sit all but empty now, decades later. The 'modern' people chiming in about how to "search faster" are missing an aspect of the experience that is literal and measureable, as well as partially undefineable simply because the portion of the mind and senses that is exercised is non-linear -- file that under "non-linear thinking"

I have a Powells bookstore bookbag, and know others that do, too. Bookstores were a destination across counties or states. The loss of these local bookstores has 1000 unintended consequences. People see the absence the same way they see the absence of a blooming meadow where there is now only pavement and some litter -- in other words, not at all.

I am literally disheartened by the loss of local bookstores, in any size town.
This looks really cool! Would you consider adding support for embedding this as a widget? This will make it easier to integrate on author's websites.
Assuming ~600 man hours (your numbers) to digitize an entire used book store, at $15/hr cost for labor it would cost ~$900 to digitize a bookstore. I think you're shy a factor of 3 or 4 on the amount of labor it would take to digitize a book store, given my experience with running inventory at retail shops. Maybe it could be worth it if there was an inventory management system that could automatically post the books for sale on an internet platform, but if every used book store posted their entire inventory online the market for many titles would be flooded and it would be a race to the bottom.

Ultimately all physical retails spaces have the same common problem -- why should someone go into your store when they can get the same products online. This problem is even bigger during covid-19. I personally think there are two answer, one is to move the core retail business online, and the other is to create experiences people will keep coming back for. If you're making unique products it might be best to pivot online. If you're into the classic buy wholesale sell retail business than the online market can be very competitive.

A used book store can be a great place to have experiences. Authors can come and talk, you can have children story time, book clubs can meet, coffee shops pair well with book stores. You have to clear inventory to make space for experiences, but you can use it as an opportunity to remove inventory that wasn't selling anyway.

Simulation in video I linked is not MOND. Dark Matter is postulated due to observations of galaxies in isolation. BUT galaxies are not gravitationally isolated. They gravitationally affected by all the other galaxies in their neighborhood. The video and simulation is pretty straight forward. Dark Matter is simply unnecessary to explain galaxy rotation curves.
I see the big issue here as whether people want free speech or not. Technology continues to greatly amplify what a single person can accomplish. A person can give their opinion, offer advice, relay misinterpreted or misunderstood information, or even outright lie. The point is that free speech is just that -- free and without constraint.

If there are going to be limits to free speech, then who gets to set those limits and who enforces the limits? Whoever gets to set those limits and enforce them assumes control over public discussion. I think the point of free speech usually has been to protect the people from unbridled power. Unfortunately, excessive free speech makes the signal-to-noise ratio intolerably low, and free speech itself becomes a weapon used against free speech.

Adjudicating free speech is a very hard problem when everyone has the ability to communicate with everyone else. It is not clear that Facebook, even if it were to prioritize ethics over economics, can address the issue in a manner satisfactory to all (or even most) stakeholders.
"Maximizing the generation of electricity is a desirable goal, but might be at the expense of biomass production. For example, for lettuce, the total biomass yield under agrivoltaic installation in Montpellier (France) was 15–30% less than the control conditions (i.e., full‐sun conditions).[28, 29] When growth of tomato was tested in Japan, the yield in an agrivoltaic regime was about 10% lower than for conventional agriculture."
Most likely solution isn't either/or between two options but rather both. Lots of people will start doing this and make it more accessible for the common man while others are getting the law changed (if).

> basically deplatformed from Apple.

Nobody takes deplatforming seriously until it hits them. It's the slippery slope, played out in real time.

Is this inaccurate? Epic doesn't make some fringe hate content, they make the world's most popular video game. Exactly zero normal people foresaw Epic losing access to the app store and development tools completely, regardless about how you feel about whether they should pay 30% or 0% or whatever in IAP fees.

And now, only now, it's newsworthy that some app, like that WordPress app no one has heard of, also gets deplatformed for totally bullshit reasons. Every scenario is different, but surely you see, that it's about the power to deplatform, not the reasons, that people don't take seriously.
