> The only reason ByteDance isn't selling TikTok for example, is because the CCP said they weren't allowed to because it would make China look weak; that's not a decision that is up to ByteDance, because they're not in control of anything ultimately.

It's not because the "CCP" said they weren't allowed to. It's because the government of the People's Republic of China issued a new policy against exporting sensitive technology. The government obviously had ByteDance in mind, but this was a government policy issued in the normal way, not anything to do with Communist Party committees advising corporate boards. It's a response by the Chinese government to a measure taken by the American government against a Chinese company.

> They don't freely allow US companies [...] to operate inside of China.

A great many US companies freely operate inside China - many more than vice versa. China's economic development was largely driven by the "Reform and Opening-Up Policy." As the name suggests, a major part of that policy was allowing foreign companies to invest in China. Foreign companies did invest massively in China, gaining market access and taking advantage of Chinese labor. If you walk around any major Chinese city nowadays, you'll see the result: foreign companies are everywhere. Volkswagens, Hondas and Toyotas fill the streets. There's a Starbucks, McDonald's or KFC on every other corner. Everyone walks around with smartphones filled with American electronics. Chinese airlines fly fleets of Boeing and Airbus planes. The computers all run Windows or OS X. The idea that US companies can't operate in China is just very far from the reality, which is that US companies have a massive presence in China.
I totally agree. First, many Americans don't support these acts, it's just beyond their control. And others do support them but either minimize them or believe they are justified for a greater good.

And a lot are totally clueless and just have no idea of what's going on.

There's a lot of propaganda, poor education and lack of information in the US. Just watch a presidential debate, it's a joke.
It's a shame to hear that. Send was a very good product that saw adoption in my circle, especially among creatives. It was used to share files with clients and replaced WeTransfer for some. I believe a monetization strategy among those lines could have been successful.
Or, perhaps, because the content is interesting?
My 2 cents: anyone selling themselves as an X programmer would immediately lose points as far as I'm concerned if I were hiring. Programming languages are tools. Being a C programmer is like being a hammer woodworker. It makes no sense.
100% "The trick is to not come off combative or argumentative". But I've never had to worry about "Tricking people into thinking something was their idea". It is always their idea, I just refine it.

I'm 15 years in and my PM puts me on special high profile cases, be it a new project or a failing one. She will literally tell the customer "We've got 'insert name' on this. He will ask a lot of questions and it may take him some time to complete, but rest assured that when he's done, it will be exactly what you need."

No pressure, right? I need to communicate very clearly about everything. If I feel there's a risk, I call it out EARLY. My PM wants to get out ahead of any issues and have all the resources that I need ready to go when I need them.

The upside of all of this is I have a "get out of jail" card. Because my PM and leadership know that it's actually done when I say it's done, they encourage me to take my time and do it right. Overtime, what's that? They know the mind fogs when someone works too much. I'll get scolded if I work too much.

Even when only working 30 hours a week, I find myself quite spent. I have no idea how people work 40-60 hours a week and still have the energy to go out and do anything.

And given away for free on medium, where the low masquerades as high.

Intellectual thought doesn't necessarily get better with time or with our knee-jerk combination of thoughts. Creators just aren't collectively trying to achieve much outside of personal gain when they happen on a non-linear breakthrough. Between advances, the low-fidelity stuff will always be there to milk any association with the high-end for what it's worth.

Well presumably he read it because he wanted to. I wouldn't have survived such language myself either, luckily "Max" was there to boil it down for you and I.

And I found the review fairly amusing for a while. It cited some competing theories, including the book's theory which, despite psychoanalysis equating to people pulling complex theories out of their favorite orifice, was still a rather interesting theory worth thinking about.

Certainly it beat a lot of articles about "fixing" social media which often seem to be little more than attempts at maximizing ad revenue by packing in lots of references to famous recent outrages and/or Trump (who barely got a mention here).
I agree with your analogy, and I agree that this is a terrible move.

But for the demographic mentioned ("this order prevents millions of Americans from using their primary (and oftentimes only) method to communicate with family in China"), I find it vanishingly unlikely that any of them doesn't already have wechat. The order has essentially zero immediate effects on them.

How exactly does it help IT education and what was wrong with it that it needed a "reboot"?
The MMU works fine, it's just poorly-documented and turns out to implement the incompatible draft-1.9.1 spec not the ratified and standard-going-forward 1.10 spec.
I gave some examples downthread where react pretty much falls apart. I'm sure you "technically" could make it work by dropping down to vanilla and cloning nodes or refactoring backend code or whatever, but at that point it's not merely "technically a bit harder", it's a pretty huge stretch.

The car gear analogy is again downplaying magnitude. The examples I gave are not a comparison between auto vs manual, it's more like auto vs getting a different license type to drive a 18 wheeler and having to learn how to turn, back out, park, go under bridges and where you're allowed to drive and not all over again. Yes, it's technically doable, no it's anywhere near similar amounts of effort as just learning stick.

To clarify, again, just because it feels like react vs vue is akin to manual vs auto when you're in a codebase that is amenable to being refactored into react, it doesn't change the fact that there are types of codebases (non-SPAs without HTTP API layers) where migrating to react is a significantly larger investment than vue. That was what the OP was saying.
The former is distraction for the others. The left in USA has been convinced (or convinced itself) that identity politics is more important than human rights.
Huang’s Law Is the New Moore’s Law, and Explains Why Nvidia Wants Arm
Those seem like orthogonal concerns. With both Monadic error handling and exceptions you can defer handling any error until you hit some boundary that you choose. Likewise you can still choose to subsume specific errors into types that encompass lots of different specific error conditions. So the file cannot be opened, audio unavailable, GPU cannot be opened can still all be an IOError.

> Just write the happy / known-to-the-programmer path and let what you don't know about bubble up to main() or the top of your event loop.

I believe that is the point, an IO exception o some sort is a known exception case so the return type of the function should express that. This function can return either the contents of a file or an IOError if the file cannot be read for some reason. The caller can then decide whether they want to try and handle the exception case or ignore it and let it bubble up the stack, but the function should clearly express that it is a possible outcome.

I thought this was going to be about silicon lottery.

Key points:

* For a new software approach to be recognized as valuable, it needs appropriate hardware to exist at the right time

* As Moore's law fades away, we can no longer rely on steady performance improvements for generalist CPUs, so specialized HW will make a comeback

An interesting note:

> Hardware is only economically vi-able if the lifetime of the use case lasts more than 3 years

> Web browser is a highly secure piece of software, protected on par or even harder than the os itself. If any ios app could freely download, compile and execute an arbitrary code from the internet, that would be a world-wide security and privacy disaster every few weeks

It sounds like you’re saying iOS is insecure compared to WebKit and Blink, and that they can be trusted to run arbitrary code downloaded from arbitrary untrusted sources, but iOS cannot.

That’s a pretty damning indictment of the state of iOS, if it’s less capable of sandboxing than a browser, despite having tight coupling between hardware and software.

> Let that sink in instead.

Tragically, you’re probably right too.
Me and the camping partners I've had have always had a policy; bring more trash from nature than you brought there.

That's cool- but unless you're targeting greenfield browsers only you aren't going to use the syntax in that documentation without a build step or using the babel transpiler directly in the browser which, while cool from a POC standpoint, isn't a good solution. At that point you might as well just add build tools and use JSX or whatever the framework you're trying to use intended or otherwise is well documented.

I'm having huge problems with this right now. I was using an automatic call recorder, but my phone camera broke, and my carrier was limiting features due to the age of the phone. I broke down and upgraded. Big mistake! Call recording was utterly broken and will not work on that phone. Bought a different phone the next day... also broken. Can't seem to root either one. I'm out about $400 on this whole ordeal, and still can't record my calls again. I'm about to send Google the bill for these phones and the 12+ hours of my time that's been wasted because apparently Google has made call recording impossible on android 9 and 10.
Yes, Cloudflare stores the SSL the private keys. CDNs really need to read and modify the requests and responses for most of their functionality, like caching, load balancing, DOS mitigation, ...

I can see your point, but you have yet to support it with a valid example. I would not argue with you if you had valid examples.

I never said half or halfway. I said the best answer often lies between opposing positions. You are continually changing the subject and creating strawman arguments which do not reflect what I'm actually saying.

The example of someone wanting your things does not have enough background about the circumstances to fully explore. In the context of taxes, there could be a middle ground. In the context of a lawsuit, there very often is a middle ground. In the context of a robbery, the situation does not reflect two arguments in a venue that promotes discussion and it involves someone breaking the law and widely established societal structure, so it doesn't meet the elements of a philosophical discussion.

Your second to last sentence is a slippery slope fallacy unless you can support it with data.

Your last sentence illustrates my original premise - western thinking tends to pick one side or the other rather than meaningfully evaluate thwboptions that lie between the opposing positions.

Look, I gave a challenge to implement FAQ page answer toggling on top of legacy PHP HTML. Show me that it's possible to do it in react in a not god awful hacky way without refactoring the backend first, then explain how it's comparable to a vue one using v-ifs, then we can knock off ourselves out debating semantics.
I am in the same boat, and usually use that as "post-its", reminders of my current trains of thoughts. I can pick-up something, switch to something else, close that thread of tabs, and come back to the previous state. If something urgent comes up, I open a new tab.

Treetabs is useful for that kind of workflow, but very slow. I also use panorama tab groups.

"ARM has a Javascript instruction" is just misinformed.

They have always had the FCVTZS instruction which converts a floating point number to an integer (just as every instruction set has). If the floating point number is too large to fit in an integer then the bottom 32 bits are returned.

The new(ish) FJCVTZS does exactly the same operation except that if the floating point number it too large then the largest integer is always returned.

The implementation complexity difference is just about zero. It just so happens that the new instruction fits what JavaScript wants while the old one fits what C wants.

There is certainly nothing non-RISC about FJCVTZS. It's a perfectly simple instruction.
Actually, it used to be called just that.

So I read somewhere that 40+% of all investors are currently leveraged, which seems like an insane figure given the recent influx of "Robinhood investors" into the market. It makes me wonder: who's on the hook if all these unsophisticated investors get wiped out?

For a lot of these investors, it will be catastrophic to their personal finances, and this might have knock-on effects on landlords for example when these people can't make rent.

Presumably this would also result in a lot of bankruptcies, and if that is the case who is on the hook for all that debt? Probably credit card companies, mortgage lenders, but what I don't know is who is the owner of the debt for leveraged trading? Is that the brokerage themselves? Is it banks? Someone else?
The categorization might need some calibration.

The fallacy you're making is proposing a false dilemma. You can review your processes AND layer defences on top. You don't have to pick between one or the other.

Whether Cloudflare is a worthwhile defence is not what I'm commenting on though, although surely the whole point of it is that it gives you some protection when you don't know you have an SQL injection exploit. I can't imagine anyone knows they have exploits and is using Cloudflare as a solution/bandaid.
