For sure, the compilation times can get pretty bad with Scala, although I haven't found it too terrible on smaller prototype projects (I agree its still quite slow compared to some other languages though).

These day's I've been using Bloop (https://scalacenter.github.io/bloop/) which makes Scala compilation super fast. It keeps a hot compiler running in a daemon and takes incremental compilation to a whole new level for Scala, truly a game changer for me.

James Gosling has contributed more to humanity than the overwhelming majority of people who have ever lived. I think he deserves better than this narrow, one-sided libel.
I'm skeptical that Amazon did this out of a genuine concern of IoT security. Seems more likely they wanted to be firmly at the center of all the data acquisition, and while they're no doubt more secure than the average IoT maker they can never be as secure as the act of not collecting the information in the first place. Their new interior security drones are next-level distopian. How long till we're avoiding the Half Life 2 drones inside our own homes?
Apologies. Missed that.
>Is the minutes save per month worth the security risk it’s exposing me?

Yes. The reality is they while this is a cool experimental hack, no one in reality is going to bother hacking other people's coffee makers.

Or, perhaps they said “Chromium compiles easily for Linux and we can get a little goodwill from corporate IT that wants to provide managed browsing for their Linux folks”.

Even Nobel Peace Prize is given to a Chinese Whistle Blower, I haven't heard China awarding any Western Whistle Blower.
For example, at an air operator company, if you can calculate optimal schedule of plane flights so you fly as least miles as possible, you can make millions daily.
You can throw rocks at the windows of any car, put a banana in the exhaust and put superglue in the locks. You can then say that the designers of the car didn't take security seriously.

However, we live in a world where anyone throwing rocks through the car's windows or vandalising the car can be caught to then be given a criminal record, possibly involving time in jail.

We need a culture of prosecuting people who vandalise computer systems and a police force able to take these things seriously, working internationally as required. As it is we do victim blaming and cover ups instead. If a server or an IOT gadget gets hacked we restore from backups (and don't tell the client) rather than go after the evil wrong doer.

I would prefer to see our efforts go into not just better security (encryption everywhere and best practices) but also into the law and order aspect. In that way we can foster a better environment for citizens and business. Any country that gets this together and goes after hackers will have an advantage when it comes to attracting companies that want to have their web services (and coffee machines) secure.

Many, many enterprises still pay Microsoft billions of dollars in licenses for Windows and Office to run Excel ‘apps’ powered by VB macros. Until that has need has diminished, I really doubt Microsoft will give up their NT kernel. At least not on corporate land, maybe for consumers.
I crossed the border (by Ferry) into Estonia the other day, and was informed by the border guard that I would need to isolate for 14 days[1], and asked to sign a document saying that I understood the isolation.

The way the border guard approached the subject, made it seem like he was worried that I would flip out at having my movements restricted. I'm guessing, but I think this was because I travel on an Australian passport, and the assumption becomes that I'm a tourist and that it will ruin my holiday.

As soon as I started talking about my isolation plans (I even went to the supermarket in Sweden before the ferry[2]), he relaxed a lot. It became "very good then, carry on".

I do wonder how many people are becoming unreasonable in situations like this.

[1] You can take tests to shorten it.

[2] It is allowed to go to the supermarket here while in isolation, but I didn't know that before arriving.
Very interesting comment. I've seen this article about Sal before and always wondered why this guy gets so much praise given the awful state of automation on the Mac (at least, compared to what it could be).

I especially agree that Automator was/is a disaster and there were numerous missed opportunities to improve MacOS scripting adoption.

I've also seen your work, which is very impressive.

I'm working on something in this space. Can I possibly pick your brain about a few things? My email is in my profile.
>Covid operates on its own schedule, not ours.

It reminds me of the Christmas Day truces, we were able to put aside our differences for a day.

But it seems we're incapable of understanding this doesn't apply to virology. Covid doesn't care if it's your wedding, sisters birthday or that your fathers dying.

We seem to assume that it has some kind of humanity or that the just lowering my mask to say something once won't have any affect.

Been using Linux Mint for many years now, and I'm very pleased with it. Although it's based on Ubuntu, it never felt sluggish or too big.
It's interesting to compare them to our crowd-sourced top 100 bands of all time on Gnoosic:

https://www.gnoosic.com/top

Most striking differences I can spot:

The Beach Boys: While they are #2 on the Rolling Stone's list, they are not on our list at all.

Linkin Park: While at #11 on Gnoosic, they are not on the Rolling Stone's list.

I wouldn't say "seamless". Interacting with C directly from Swift is possible, and fine from a binary perspective, but quite clunky at the source level. (Which obviously is a motivation for the library that is being announced here.)

There are still assorted gaps in C imports -- a key example is forward-declared structs, that _all_ arrive in Swift as a _single shared_ `OpaquePointer` type: https://forums.swift.org/t/opaque-pointers-in-swift/6875
A craftsman makes his own tools. Not all of them, but some, whenever they see a possible improvement, or their work is novel.

It's the assembly line worker that doesn't, and sticks to using the company-provided "industry standard" tooling. The assembly line worker doesn't need to make custom tools, because he/she has no agency - the worker's role is just to close a feedback loop in a well-defined industrial process of mass manufacturing a fully specified end product.

I just wonder where the point of convergence will be - I imagine that even consolidation of linux and Windows will be a local minima, just like Linux as the primary Unix-ish OS (not counting apple stuff) is a local minima.

With the increasing dominance of cloud-based infrastructure, will laptops/smartphones/tablets in the 2050s all be Linux based zero-clients running on 8G networks?
But see also this parallel comment from kevmo314:

> I do appreciate the relative consistency with "Sign Up". Because it's de facto standard, I know what to expect when I click that button. Sometimes I want to create an account and seeing a button like "Start Drawing" doesn't tell me what to expect.

I wonder whether it might be advantageous to include the same option twice in a menu, once as "Sign Up" and once as whatever you prefer.

Though in the CloudFlare example, I'd tend to expect "sign up" to link to a page that was mostly about pricing, and "under attack?" to link to a page that was mostly about how CloudFlare helps with that.
>Accordingly, the return on investment of spending on Windows development is falling. As PC volume sales continue to fall off , it’s inevitably going to stop being a profit center and turn into a drag on the business.

Would that mean Microsoft could become like Apple on iDevices and force all Windows apps to be sold via the Windows Store for a 30% cut, to increase security of Windows and cut down most malware? What would be an estimate of how much money MS would have made over the years with a 30% cut similar to Apple? A couple trillion?

Yeah. I'd put it quite a long way below rumours personally.

Too bad you got down-voted. I think you have made some valid points.
False, on facts and law too: DMCA defines "effective access control mechanism" (paywall) and browsers can't hack through those. Anyone who does by exploiting server-side vulns gets in big trouble.

Ad blocking is not like paywall circumvention. Ad and (what Brave does, don't misdirect or let others who get paid to whitelist ads while not blocking trackers, notably Eyeo who owns AdBlock Plus) tracker blocking is allowed by design of the Web standards, and entails no effective access control mechanism to circumvent.

Script blocking in general is a good idea. Signed, creator of JS.
Well, ideally your appliance is also IoT, so you can just shut it down.

The dream is for everything to be interconnected. Of course, that's also the nightmare
I think many tend to forget that Oracle actually offers an excellent database product, with extremely good replication/failover feature and really good performance. It's not a bad database, and it scales amazingly well.

The answer is still: No, not really.

The price tag of Oracles database license is simply to high, compared to any benefit you might get. It's much better to try to redesign your application to work around any feature you might be missing in Postgresql, or MariaDB.
BTW, does anyone know a good migration library for nodejs/typescript?

I was looking for one some months ago and kind of settled with Typeorm migrations but I don't like them that much.
It feels clunky and doesn't seem to provide tooling for saving the schema. Little things that annoy me are the timestamp names for the migrations and the needless "extend this base class for your migration" Java cargo-culting which feels so weird in JS/TS.
We're thinking about doing, "loves their job" comparisons next.
Smart TVs are different - people want netflix/hulu/disney+ built into their TV a long with a bunch of other interfaces to play video with their remote. TV for lots of non tech savy people comes over the internet now.

A lot of powered appliances either heat something up or spin a fan or pump. They don't need information from the internet and any slight advantage is outweighed by their complexity and cost.

I think you are right that manufacturers want to break free from being commodities. I think it is only a matter of time before people realize that they aren't gaining anything from complicating things that used to be simple.
Perhaps something similar to Underwriter's Laboratories for IoT security?
I think it's fine if they're honest about it or their readership/public understand "ok, they don't actually mean the greatest albums EVER from EVERYWHERE". It's essentially impossible to consider every music from everywhere.

You don't have to go all the way to Thai music. Rolling Stone has been _the_ "Anglo Saxon rock music between 1950-1980s is the only music out there" publication till recently. Until the last few years there's been almost no hip hop, almost no electronic music, jazz is relegated to some token pics, etc.
I don't get this criticism. Doesn't it make sense to raise the alarm before the fire happens?
This is a feature present in Kotlin, and it's useful for mathematical functions and simple-but-not-trivial getters.
Doesn't this ignore the broader question of IoT devices for things like coffee makers in the first place? It seems like internet-enabled for the sake of it, which is cool in the "We built a java-based coffee maker monitor for the break room back in 1991" way, but kind of sad today.

> I don't own a Pinephone, and from the looks of this debacle I never will. It doesn't seem that OSS is safe to run in safety-critical contexts.

Sound rather limited, almost stupid.

OSS runs in various safety critical software, FreeRTOS, also Linux and various other projects run in very critical environments, far more critical than a smartphone.

https://scholar.google.at/scholar?q=open+source+software+in+...
https://scholar.google.at/scholar?q=linux+in+safety-critical...

You know that something is OSS allows letting anybody check this out in the first place, do you really think a proprietary phone is safe from this? There are many reports about iPhones and other smart phones catching fire each year.
An interesting plot. Something similar happened with a computer in a Spider-Man comic, and as I recall (it's been a while since I read it) the computer ends up determining that Spider-Man must be Flash, through no tampering but just because computers are in fact not good at that sort of thing. Spider-Man is strong and Flash is strong, Spider-Man shows up in a lot of places that Flash does, etc, and of course no one had actually told the computer about radioactive spiders.
I have 3 cameras that I find use.

1. A weird part of the exterior. I don't physically walk back there often, so the camera is handy.

2. One at the mailbox/package drop spot. Not for theft, just to know when my packages arrive.

3. One in the "mechanical" room so I can check in while I'm away (we have hydronic heat, so we can't fully turn the water off in the winter).
Drag and drop file uploads always worked very well via FTP. Would be sad to see a degradation on something that was quite inter-operable and stable regardless of Javascript and its various Browser APIs.

Running a gaming/entertainment system on your workstation irresponsible. Even before I switched to Manjaro Linux for my daily driver workstation, I had separate machines for gaming and working.

First of all, because I've seen many a PC game anti-cheat software cause system-wide issues.

Second, because I don't even do those things in the same room.

Third, because for your common web developer a 2nd PC is cheap. You can get a refurbished i5/i7 machine, add a new 32GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD for less than $500. [0] This will last you for 5 years, easy.

I'm also in my 40s and I like things simple, clear-cut and easy. Mixing Windows with Linux is none of those. Dealing with one work OS is by far easier than dealing with two of them. Also, XFCE runs circles around the Windows GUI while providing better features liked a tabbed file browser and a taskbar that natively supports all the features that I used to have to hack into Windows with 7+ taskbar tweaker.

I find our assumption that other living beings are not self aware fascinating.

Simply because we cannot speak a common language we assume creatures are drones with no intelligence or emotion, until we can somehow prove otherwise.

It almost speaks more to the human psyche than anything else.

> objective album ranking

That's gotta be an oxymoron.
Although the whole aim of doing this is completely pointless and impossible (If you try to rank art or start waxing poetical about high or low culture, I'm gone before you've finished the sentence), these rankings just seem bizarre.

I won't bother making a list but I'm quite surprised Queen's News of the world isn't present - 2 songs, played at almost any sporting event for the last 40 years.
Thank you for your kind words. I agree that all these resources are relevant. I'm familiar with some but will study others more deeply.

Certainly I've spent a lot of time thinking about collaborative and distributed systems, and there is no doubt scope for cross-fertilization of ideas. A huge inspiration (cited in the post) is Martin Kleppmann's automerge, which uses a proxy object to capture an explicit diff from a computation which is expressed using ordinary mutable logic.

Regarding the build system work, I will say this: the build task is inherently graph-like, and a lot of the interesting problems involve choices of sort order to utilize parallelism best; I'm fortunate to have a 16 core machine, and it makes me sad to wait on a single-threaded link step. I think by comparison the reactive UI task is mostly dealing with tree structure, and that's a simplification that could be useful to exploit. It's easier to describe mutation of a tree than general mutation of a graph.

But certainly there are common themes in all these incremental systems, and I continue to be drawn to figuring out the fundamental principles rather than trying to build systems ad-hoc.
Anything we prove requires an axiom which is consent which is imaginary willful agreement.

That just means proof is no different to an arbitrary set of rules defined acting like a compiler/interpreter for a programming language.

So just Infinite monkey patched classes of definitions... fun.
Even within the subcategory of hip hop/rap it seems there's some bias towards more current artists vs artists from the 90s & 00s.

Is that just because there is a natural bias towards more contemporary artists?
I'm unhappy when this happens to my laptop but I'm frankly grateful to live in a world where coffeemakers can become almost literally possessed by demons

except it's impossible to simultaneously pay those rates on a marginal basis. according to https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/taxes/income-taxes/person..., the 20.5% rate only applies to income over $220,000 (which, even by US standards is in the top 3%), while according to https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/child-famil..., the CCB clawback only applies between $31,712 and $68,707. therefore, while you can simultaneously pay all these taxes, I don't think it's accurate to call it a marginal rate.
It’s important to separate not having the specific design solution to a specific problem from not having solutions to closely related problems. We don’t know what the mass budget etc would look like for an interstellar colony ship.

On the other hand several known designs mostly worked for humans to the point where using them would dramatically reduce the supplies needed for a long trip. But, none of them where operating on a zero G interstellar mission.

Biosphere 2 for example depended on sunlight which would be missing, but they provided sufficient calories across several months which means it was also generated enough oxygen assuming it had been setup properly to begin with. They had a huge range of other their issues, and you would need a vastly larger population and much higher efficiency for such a trip. But, from what amounted to a publicity stunt it was surprisingly close to a working solution.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS-3 on the other hand was a far less ambitious project that was much closer to a practical design even if they imported food and the longest experiment was 180 days, it was actually using artificial lights.

PS: A more significant question is how to design hardware systems that could last for such a trip and what it would take to sustain things at the other side.
Technically even making a copy of a CD for your own use counts as copyright infringement. When cars had CD players people would often make CDRs of their favourite CDs, and now people rip CDs to files.

In theory all of this is illegal - because you don't buy the music with a CD, you buy a license to listen to the music from that particular run of the CD.

Automated transcription - already a solved problem for solo piano and guitar, and partially solved for more complex source separation applications - would follow the same rules.

So - technically an infringement, but you wouldn't be sued for private use.

Sooner or later this will turn into an actual court case. Until then, the law on automated transcription is ambiguous. IANAL but I would guess it depend on whether a transcription product is sold as a "music ripper" for other people's work, or as a study aid for your own playing.

And of course CD/stream ripper software has never been illegal. There have been various short-lived DRM efforts, but none of them seem to stick for long.

Now it's fairly easy to rip Spotify playback, but no one seems to mind. But if you started running your own Spotify competitor they might - even on a small scale.
I don't think these devices save time at all. In the time it takes me to navigate the through the touch-screen UIs of these fancy toys I can microwave a cup of instant coffee and start drinking it before the fancy machine starts brewing anything. The results are indistinguishable.
It will also hopefully be time stamped. Video cameras for porch pirates seems to pay off well, though making a big mail box for your porch is probably more effective.
