Adobe can't write secure or portable software for shit. They only ever want to be the stewards for something so they can make money off of it, often precisely to the detriment of the rest of the world.

No Internet content should EVER be loaded by Adobe software by default. Ever. Their security history has clearly shown us that.
> it has become hard associated with enterprise work and not much else

Maybe you are right on that, but why do you consider that a bad thing? Different languages are for different things.

Your statement of non-enterprise projects off by a factor of 10-100x is partly because people jumped on the non-statically typed mess that Python is. Especially with all the AI related stuff.. yeah if you are doing some random little research project and you are a math person but don't want to take the time to do programming "correctly", then sure you can jump into python, use some libraries and get some results. It has it's purpose.

I don't know it's just silly to bulk everything together and pretend you can compare them.

Also saying .net is dying in enterprise is basically laughable.
There are very good reasons to do exactly that. I don't know how often you work with complex models like this - but I do all the time. They are very often wrong for very subtle reasons. It's extremely difficult to satisfactorily prove something in a descriptive analysis, especially of a complex, dynamic system.

By default, you should basically never trust any descriptive analysis of a system like climate or the economy. Climate change specifically has received so much scrutiny by now that it's probably trustworthy. But in general you should have a very low prior on this entire category of research.
I'm in agreement - low code these days seems to be somewhat 4GL and somewhat beyond - "visual programming" or "visual development". Kind of drag-and-drop with some light scripting mixed in possibly.
If your point is to say that those shouldn't be used in isolation, I agree with you (but I think your point was poorly expressed). If it's to say they shouldn't be used at all, which is what I read your original comment as, then I don't.
True, but why is leadership at such an economic premium to development? It's not like the CEO writes a pile of code for 40 hours a week and then puts in another 30 hours on top doing all the corporate administration. It's an necessary but distinct job that complements the technical one but isn't so superior to it.

Yes, indeed a good CEO has offers from elsewhere. But...why isn't the business and governance open-sourced like the codebase?

Given what was presented at Tesla's Battery Day event, I believe that most vehicles sold in California by 2025 will be electric, and no one will be buying gasoline or diesel vehicles for any purpose by 2030.

Why is Newsom banning a dead technology, and for so late a date? Where is the justice in a politician getting credit for something he has almost no hand in actually helping?

I also realize that I might be missing some behind-the-scenes knowledge in my sharp questions. If that is the case, and Newsom is pulling strings to help Tesla, that is praiseworthy. Then the question becomes, where is the justice in a system that requires political support to solve technological problems such as these?

I am motivated in my questions here by the fact that politics moves slower than the innovators. The methane craters in the arctic and the fires out here show that our situation is dire, and reality will brook no delay.
Big Tech tries to play for both teams by writing the legislation that regulates Big Tech, while making money from large government contracts and making public statements of support for more or less or certain kinds of regulations, depending on the company and the context.

The personal is political in life and in business. Regulation could make currently profitable companies less profitable, and would thus make compliance a foregone conclusion. If the public wills that business and data collection practices should change, and such changes mandated by law, Big Tech will change, and the status quo would change. Those that currently benefit from the status quo make noises about changing it in an effort to guide and forestall such change as long as it is profitable to do so, to ensure the possibility of increasing profits in the future.

I wouldn't call it FUD. I wasn't aware of any outage and just went about my day dropping the kiddo off at Daycare this morning without issue.

I just now opened up the App to see if I was affected and it gave the usually "Waking up car" message before kicking me out to a splash screen that says "No Products Found\r\nJoin the Mission"(https://i.imgur.com/n34IKUc.png). When I try to view my account it displays an error (https://i.imgur.com/JnD6gev.png).

And with the App in that state I just checked and the car let me put it in gear. So even without my key(card) it still recognized me.

Idk what's going on but I wouldn't outright dismiss it as FUD.
I think OPs point is if you don't like the rules on wikipedia, you can download a dump of articles run a mediawiki instance, and make your own wikipedia.

Which in practise also requires skill and effort. Even importing the xml dump file into a mysql database in reasonable time requires special skill when we are talking data in the 100 gb range before decompressing.

There are openly gay events in all these countries and particularly of Serbia, their PM Ana Brnabić is literally a lesbian (and, even more astonishly, Croatian)

The myths you write about countries you've clearly never been to and like to write fanfic in your head about are quite amusing, but it doesn't change the fact that the US promises their citizens free speech by its Constitution and is functionally the source of all the world's liberties in that regard (it doesn't matter what country you are in, as long as you can host a statement in the US you can write about generally whatever). And in the US, right-wing ideas regarding racial characteristics and gender roles seem to be the only thing consistently deplatformed.
This doesn't have to do with communicating with the car.

I believe internet is needed because tesla acts as a CA for your phone. That allows you to revoke a device, for instance if it were stolen. My guess is that the phone has authorizations that it renews fairly frequently and in this case apps could renew auths so once the current set expired you couldn't use the phone to unlock, etc. I can't immediately think of a better solution to the problem that allows using a phone for some functions and being able to remotely revoke a device.

If letsencrypt went down we'd similarly see a large portion of sites be inaccessible through browsers after 90 days even though you could directly connect to those servers
They are proposing legislation. Congress would have to adopt it into a bill. Doesn't mean it's going to happen, or that it will pass. But anyone can write a letter to Congress and propose legislation. You and I would likely get a nice pat on the head and an auto-signed letter, but we can do it.

The changes to the existing “Good Samaritan” section basically do what they said they were going to do: change it so that the section about providers not being publishers and the section about liability for blocking are independent, and clarify what “good faith” in blocking means. Basically the standard for civil immunity is slightly higher for blocking content than providing content. This is weird and still a big change by itself, but it is a reasonable topic for debate, I think.

The new ridiculously named “Bad Samaritan” section is a disaster that wipes out the point of the “Good Samaritan” section and is basically a combination of the mandatory CSA reporting law and SESTA/FOSTA for all federal and state laws. It’s so bad it almost seems like a poison pill.
At hobbyist scale, it's usually more of a problem with assets rather than the engine itself, or with tools.

For example, in a game jam you might want to be able to push something to a public Git repo that anyone can pull from and build, and license it so people on the team have no question about whether they can share the code with other people. Easy way to do that is to have an agreement like, "Let's license our code under MIT and make the art CC BY 4.0. Agreed?" Then drop copies of the license text in the repo with everyone's name on it, and make the repo public.

As soon as you use third-party assets then you probably can't do that any more.

Just speaking from a practical perspective here... I'm working with people and want them to freely use the code that I've written and the assets I've made.
> I know that my in-laws with a Tesla don't carry the key cards. They just use their phone

Are you actually sure you know that they don't carry the key card in their wallet? Why wouldn't they? I find this pretty doubtful, it just seems like a pointlessly unnecessary way to risk getting locked out of your vehicle if your phone happens to die or becomes otherwise incapacitated. What possible reason could anyone have for not just keeping the card in their wallet as instructed by Tesla associates upon receipt of the vehicle and the cards themselves? It just doesn't make sense.
> The legislation asks them to take their finger off the scales

What do you mean? In what way is the DOJ's finger on the scale? Either facebook is free to manage itself as it sees fit, or it isn't. But if it isn't, then that's the finger being on the scale. That's the government controlling facebook. If you want the government controlling facebook's editorial powers, that's all well and good, but it's putting its finger on the scales.

> because you aren't relying on the uptime of people at home

IPFS doesn't automatically spread whatever you put into your client, so you should never rely on others to randomly host your content for you. In fact, if you start a default IPFS node, add your content then turn it off again, no one is gonna have the content you added.

Would have been interesting to hear a fair/impartial comparison between Skynet and IPFS but your misunderstanding of IPFS is now evident so maybe someone else can fill in the gaps?
> Conservatives have raced so quickly to the right ...

I'd like to suggest that we use care with the term "conservative". Is it possible that the parent post conflates "conservative" with "Republican"?

I'm no authority on the U.S. Republic party, but I know it's sometimes said that that party has shifted hard to "the right". I could believe that's true, which would line up with the parent post.

However, some of my own political views would be considered "conservative" in the traditional sense, and I don't think they've undergone a hard shift to the right.
Yep, I set up aliases and scripts for similar needs.
The blog in itself is dynamically generated, I have an admin interface with an editor where I can create and modify content and settings, but pages are cached, so the content served is static, yes. That's common for blogs as the content doesn't change that often, I would expect the same for the OP.

I use my own CSS (with the Cologne Blue skin), and I would hope that it doesn't break. I customize the CSS in other ways too, because I often don't like what they do with modern ones. (I think would be better to design it to be used without CSS and then it might be better, but they don't do that, so I need to add my own in order to fix the mess they made.)

I do not use any side bar or top or bottom bar; only the text is displayed. I do not want a maximum line width either; I want the entire window to be filled with the text.

When I lose internet access, or the server is not reachable (and this is super frequent), my floor heating (my only source of heat) stops running, and ventilation starts.

Have to wait for someone to reboot the networked server, but they work only Mon-Fri, 10am to 5pm.

I wouldn't say "just a hashmap". That would be like saying Kafka is just a log. But I see your point. You could replace some of the very basic functionalities with those data structures.
My guess would be a few thousand in the Bay Area. Crunchbase could probably give you a better number by doing a bit of data mining on their database to find former Sun, Yahoo, Amazon, Facebook, Tesla, Apple, and Google employees who have gone on to create startups and exited those startups. Those companies alone have minted > 10,000 multi-millionaires who were simply employees at the company either prior to an IPO or prior to a large run up in value (like Apple).

Of people I know who have stepped off at stage 2, they pocket enough wealth that they no longer have to work to maintain a moderate lifestyle, and then move to a place that interests them and work on other pursuits.

> I almost never use the left hand side bar (and I have a feel almost no one does)

The left sidebar has two killer features for me:

1. Finding canonical translations for technical terms. You need to know what the standard way to translate "hardware acceleration" or "differentiable manifold" is in French? Go to the wikipedia page and hover over the language switcher link in the left sidebar. Done. This has become one of my indispensable tools.

2. Learning about historical events where there are multiple inevitably biased narratives. For example, want to know about the Islamic Golden Age? The English, French, and Farsi versions have significantly different content from different perspectives (I would assume the Spanish and Arabic ones are also equally interesting). I highly recommend this exercise especially for history that one is taught in school, e.g. if you're American and can read Spanish, I bet the Spanish entry on Mexican-American War will teach you a few things you had never heard of.

If you're doing it for community contributions then yeah you're stuck. But if you just want to let other people see & learn from your code you're perfectly free to release whatever you can.

For example DOOM, the thing ported to freaking everywhere, was released without working sound on DOS because of licenses ( https://github.com/id-Software/DOOM ):

release the dos code because of a copyrighted sound library we used
(wow, was that a mistake -- I write my own sound code now), and I
honestly don't even know what happened to the port that microsoft did

And also without any game art assets - no textures, no levels, no sounds, no etc... Just the code, and just the code that wasn't covered by a license agreement.

I don't want to be in a situation where I want to do something with my game and can't because I would need to track down the rightsholder. As a consumer I want to have some semblance of ownership over the things I buy, but even more than that as a creator, I really want to own the things I make.

Granted, I think they've proven that after a certain point, money has diminishing effects on happiness, but I think it is mostly that you simply that it consumes your life less and less and gives you the means to think about other, more positive things than how to afford new shoes.

At the most basic level leadership is at a premium because there are fewer truly good leaders than there are developers.

Now, is every well paid CEO a truly good leader? No. But I’d argue it’s a lot more difficult to assess a good leader than a good developer. There’s a lot more people management, marketing and other soft skills involved. Not to mention the time scales for success are much larger.
He's right, it is a pretty big if, since storage space and compute power are basically free for NSA/CIA (and they have shown they don't care about privacy laws or the 4th amendment) you can safely assume all your traffic and data is stored away somewhere for future usage against you.
