One huge advantage is that you can isolate a web component in its own shadow DOM, which means it has CSS that's independent from the rest of the page. If you're making something for other people to embed in their code, even if you're on the same project, you can save them from breaking it by styling it by mistake.

You can also close the shadow DOM to stop people easily inspecting it, but I must admit I haven't actually figured out a reason to do that yet.
> Consider also that free migration is allowed within the US borders. Everyone in South Carolina is currently leagally allowed to migrate to California. Is California loosing money to South Carolina because of this?

Again... completely apples-to-oranges comparison. Migrants between South Carolina and California share enough in common that it hardly classifies as migration other than due to the internal political divisions of the United States.

Legal immigration to the US is a zero-sum game, by law, and this is unlikely to change in the foreseeable future.

> Obviously it has to be limited to citizens because those are the people paying for it via taxes.

This is so delusionally, obviously false it fatally undermines your argument.

A huge number of non-citizens pay taxes!!!

Where do you get the idea that non-citizens don't pay taxes!

Shakes head despairingly at the ignorance

Your argument would work if you said UBI must be limited to people on $X or higher salary, or who have been on such a salary. Because people who have only ever earned <$X do not pay taxes.

But as you know, that is not the UBI idea. It is advocated on the basis of a principle, of basic safety, simplicity and dignity, combined with a working theory that it is more affordable than people tend to assume because of the net system-wide benefits. Rather like the USA's constitution itself.
I like that the "Compare" tab shows some dimensions in mm and some in inches. The Pixel 5 has a "151 mm" screen, the Pixel 4a (5G) has a "6.2 in" screen.
If I read it correctly that wouldn't be tunnels in tunnels. It would be 2 separate tunnels side by side. Which is not necessarily a bad thing.

WSL2 is basically a VM and any VM which binds directly to the Adapter (e.g. not NAT mode) will have the same behaviour. In some cases you'd even want it to do this.
But it was a common hardware platform of the day.

The tech specs say it is running “Android TV OS”.

It is a rebranding and the new direction of Android TV. (https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2020/09/google-merges-chrome...)

> “But while Android TV is the foundation of the new Chromecast, the whole experience feels very new. Because unlike TVs from Sony and set-top boxes from Nvidia and other brands that run the traditional version of Android TV, Google has created a new “Google TV” layer atop the operating system that completely replaces the old home screen experience.”

It actually detects your scroll speed (on mobile anyway) and skips certain animations if you’re scrolling fast enough. Still feels weird though.
Now why should we go back to the stone age and surrender all individual liberty over people who are already 1 foot in the grave? Im still looking for that part in the constitution that says “this is all void if theres an emergency”.
They looked at Apple's product pages, couldn't figure out how they work and why they are made to work like that, and piled all up on their own pages.

On a more general note, I totally agree with you: scroll hijacking is a real issue and very very few people actually take care to implement it correctly. The New Yorker is one of the few who usually get it right in their interactive stories.
Do you ignore politics while you're pooping? If so, why?
To be frank, I think in large part this is due to React.

I'm not an authority in this area, but I seem to recall that because React uses a synthetic event system, it won't interoperate with Web Component bindings and emitted events. (I know React doesn't work well with Webcomponents, the part I'm unsure of is whether it's specifically due to this).

React also doesn't have an easy means of turning React components into Web Components for publishing and consuming. (Preact does though, they put a lot of work into it).

Svelte, Vue, and (I believe) Angular can all emit web components.

In Vue, you can use the framework's standard data-binding and event capture syntax to interact with custom web components. You wouldn't be able to tell the difference between a Vue component and a Web Component you imported from a package.

(I can't speak for Angular, maybe someone could chime in here.)

To me, it represents a huge failure on the part of the developer community not to make publishing web components the standard.

It seems silly to write a wildly popular component/component-library, and vendor-lock it to a single framework. Why not just publish a web component version as well?

Big question. Fundamentally, having capital allows one to acquire more capital, generationally. The history here is long and complex. Over hundreds of years, we've seen a striation of incomes, wealth, and capital across the country.

The lower ends of that income spectrum are dealing with difficult choices about whether to cut food, heating, housing, medicine, sanitation, childcare, etc. Low level crime is a symptom of people being squeezed too hard.

So, let's dive a layer deeper: what causes inequal access to healthcare, housing, education, sanitation, etc.? Part of it is cultural -- people framing the question as, "Why should I give up some of my income so someone else doesn't have raw sewage pumped into their yard?" rather than, "What's the baseline experience we should all have, no matter what, and how much do I have to give up to ensure that?"

Fundamentally, I think culturally, in the US, we prioritize "mine" too much over "ours", which leads to tight fists on improving conditions and addressing economic inequality, which leads to systemic problems in housing/food/education/etc., which leads to crime, drug abuse, mental health problems, etc.

As for the second question, I think you are asking whether companies are obligated to grow their profits/income and how is that tied to these issues? I want to make sure I understand what you are asking before I try to answer.

Thanks for asking good questions. We might not agree on the root causes here, or what to do about it, but at least this set of questions is a reasonable dive into things.
Edge and IE are still a decent chunk of desktop traffic as well. And opening them with home page will probably kick off traffic to microsoft.com as well. Not sure how much that will be, but probably factors in.

Edit: Although their metrics have the browser share lower than others. They have Edge at <4% and IE doesn't register in top 10. Whereas something like https://netmarketshare.com/ has Edge at 7% and IE 5%. So there is seemingly a bias towards other browsers in their methods. Which makes sense, seems unlikely someone uses 1.1.1.1 and IE.
What do you mean? Things cost money to maintain. The D4H is a best in class rocket that is rated for the highest reliability requirements.

As long as the D4H is flying, no matter infrequently, they need to maintain personnel, equipment, knowledge. A scrub requires defueling, refueling, maintenance, and all the infra associated around that,

Also since Vulcan development has started, most resources are being put into that, so the D4H stuff is being sidelined, even though its still launching critical missions

I understand, and there's not going to be a way to judge the outcome until after this is all "over." I think articles saying that they've been successful are premature, for the reasons I mentioned before, but it is too early to call it a loss either.

My personal forecast is that by the end I think they're going to have similar levels of economic damage (can't export to closed countries) and higher death rates than their direct neighbors who implemented more restrictive policies and we will never have a clear way to decide if that was better or worse because there is no answer to "how many deaths are worth it?"
And it actively prevents the brand from doing quality control.
> We were still in the process of migrating towards python3.7 and it was a huge effort for barely any real gain.

Besides the pursuit for the latest and greatest, is there really anything forcing you to upgrade?

I mean, Python 3.7 will be around for at least 2 more years.

That’s a fair point, but it’s also fair to say that the reporting and comments do in fact conflate these two things, which is a similar problem in its own way.
This is the exact reason I didn't try running weird VPN configs like this. The reliable way is to run Linux inside a VirtualBox and have it connected to VPN on its own.

Currently, I run Linux on a Xen domU and configure VPN client inside the guest.

PS: I don't want all my traffic to go through VPN. Especially things like Netflix or Youtube where VPNs are blocked (and VPN BW is lower anyway).
This might work acceptably if you do most or all of your programming in Python anyway. However, if you try doing it as someone who works on a lot of different projects within that 12-18 months, using many different languages, then the kind of dependency hell that exists in ecosystems like Python and JavaScript gets old very fast. In that environment, having every language you use invent its own toolchain and conventions for package and dependency management is anything but helpful.

There is a lot to be said for having language tools that compile your code, compile or directly link in any external libraries from wherever you chose to put their files, and then simply give you back a single native executable file.
I regularly work 6 days a week as does my wife. I am under the distinct impression that the vast majority of professionals are occasionally required to do so.
Wasn't the whole point that by the time the pandemic ends Sweden would come out about the same as everyone else but with a more sustainable strategy? Instead of lockdown then no-lockdown, then back to lockdown Sweden just put in place recommendations that can remain the same throughout the pandemic.

Only when the pandemic is over can you evaluate whether Sweden's strategy worked or not.
Tried it, here are some first impressions:

- On the page where you start a debate it's not clear how to save it and not obvious that you need to move to Schedule. A big green NEXT>> button at the bottom would help.

- Can't the debate be started right away? It's sort of cumbersome to think about all the dates and then wait, and also can't really test anything right now.

- The design looks slick, nice that it's not one of the overused templates.

Hard to say anything about the process itself since can't test it until it starts.
> The per capita rate is far lower than nearby Denmark or the Netherlands (if higher than the negligible rates in Norway and Finland).

According to this article, Sweden's per capita infection rate is far lower than Denmark and the Netherlands, and slightly higher than Norway and Finland. Compare that to population density: (numbers from Wikipedia)

Netherlands: 521/km²
Denmark: 137/km²
Sweden: 25/km²
Finland: 16/km²
Norway: 14/km²

Not so coincidentally in my opinion, Sweden has a far lower population density than Denmark and the Netherlands, and slightly higher than Norway and Finland.
I'm curious, in the various responses to this comment people are really getting into this interesting concept of certain political ideologies replacing the church, and resembling a religious fanaticism in their application of these ideologies.

My understanding is that we have had secular societies before, eg. the Soviet Union, China, which explicitly try to reduce practicing religion. Did this same kind of "new semi-religion appears to fill the void" event occur in those societies? Is it the particular "holy sacrements" that the west has adopted that is unique? Or are we unique in even having something arise the "fills the religious void"?
Annealed pyrolytic graphite would be cheaper. 1700W/(mK) (In-plane) versus copper’s 400W/(mK) and is a quarter the density.

Honestly, the thing that stood out the most on this page was that they were using Quibi to show off the screen. Paid product placement?
I think Google TV is the name of the device. From the launch livestream it looks like the same software will come to other Android TV devices as well.
Separation of church and state is nothing more than a limitation on the government, prohibiting it from establishing a national religion or inhibiting religious practice. It is not a claim that religion can never be discussed in government, or that government can never be discussed in religious practice.
I'm straining to understand how a branch-to-be-pulled for your backend will break SystemZ unless you've been modifying the shared middle end.

If you have then you tell them you're going to reduce your test case and also that you're going to contact the SystemZ and SPARCV8 maintainers. Maybe your branch won't make it into the tree. Maybe it's your fault or maybe it's theirs; if it's theirs they'll WANT to know about it. Maybe it won't make it into the tree for this release but it might for the next after the bug is fixed.

Development is done in parallel and the middle end always gets improved by being stretched and abused by multiple backends. There are out of tree backends which beat the hell out of GlobalISel (Apple GPU). I'm GLAD that they've done the hard work of beating GlobalISel into shape because it makes it a more stable platform for me. There are in tree backends which are models for cloning (MIPS) even though the vendor is basically an IP holding company.

LLVM stands in contrast to GCC. LLVM was architected as a collection of modular and reusable compiler and toolchain technologies. And then when people actually do that it's a good thing.

Right now LLVM 11 is in RC4, about a month late. There is surprisingly little if any sturm und drang on the developers' list about this slip. Work on LLVM 12 has commenced, in parallel.
Partnering with Netflix is most likely to compete with Apple and Amazon. Enemy of my enemy is my friend.
I'm not familiar with Postgres (or any database, for that matter) internals: how does it store variable-length types? I'm assuming that it doesn't do the traditional pointer-into-the-heap, and maybe does more like this:

struct Data { size_t len; uint8_t data[] };

Does it store the length in some metadata section, or inline like that struct (I'm assuming not, as then lookups would be expensive with having to follow basically a linked list)? How does it handle resizes?
Starlink should be a public good. It's like we learned nothing from the wholesale give away of our airways to corporate interests.

Conceptually this makes sense. It doesn't really run Under windows, it runs beside windows. Unlike WSL1 which was basically part of Windows. It's strange tcpdump doesn't run though as WSL2 is running a real kernel.

Personally I really liked the resource efficient WSL1 approach and I lament that they dropped it. But I know for some usecases (e.g. docker) a real Linux kernel was needed.
Some sort of fluid transfer would have much higher heat flux than copper (or even diamond). Maybe throw in a phase change, like micro heat pipes.
When people say they're concerned about political correctness, they're generally disputing your assessment that modern speech codes are very mild. Many people feel that modern speech codes are quite intense - that it requires significant study to identify all the terms and phrases that currently aren't welcome in polite society, and that complying with the list once you've studied it severely restricts the ideas you can express.

Pulling a menu out from the left certainly cannot be implemented on iOS Safari Mobile, because it doesn’t support https://caniuse.com/css-overscroll-behavior

Supporting swipe left/right fails hard on iOS Mobile Safari because the browser wants to history navigate back/forward if you misplace your finger, and it is easy to inadvertently refresh the page unless you are very careful not to. I don’t think there is any effective workaround.

It can't be directly compared to social media since it is not a social network, but a broadcasting platform. Not everyone can get on cable TV, there is a barrier to entry. Now they have YouTube, their own websites, and plenty of other revenue streams to generate money for them.

Also, I never implied that broadcast TV doesn't have it's own subset of issues. I actually think broadcast TV has a few big problems. It moves from manufactured panic to panic, limits the acceptable discourse in order to be subservient to its donors and funding sources (people with certain political opinions never get a platform), and it benefits in a similar way to social media from social division and disfunction. Media manufactures moral panic and plays in a similar way on human emotion in order to keep viewers watching so that they can make more money.

> The American model of advertisement funded broadcast proved them wrong and American broadcast industry grew by bounds and leaps while the British were stunted despite the television set being invented in Britain.

I mean maybe we should be asking ourselves "at what cost?" and "who benefited from that?". A bunch of media execs got rich, but did broader society really benefit? It's easy to always defer to "growth" as good and completely ignore the costs.
I don't think people are "backing her up" because of sexism. I saw it more as: "She knows her shit. Dear devs, pay attention"

And yes, Lea is pretty awesome.
Thank you for your comments. I agree with you that this can be taken to the nth degree and it benefits no one. I guess I could say that I do my best to avoid "grey" areas if at all possible. If I don't stand for something, I fall for anything.

As far as meat goes, I don't eat red meat. Fish, yes. Chicken, don't really care for it. I could easily get by on fish, rice, beans, salads, etc. I see your point. My eating fish would be evil to someone else since a life is lost in doing so. Beef is nasty to me because I hate even seeing fat on food. As an aside, to me, nothing is better than fried fish or a salad made from chilled chickpeas, lime juice, cilantro, diced Roma tomatoes, and red onion. Add Serrano or Jalapeno peppers if you like spicy.
I think this opinion is similar to the opinion that people don't value their privacy: it is a very convenient viewpoint to have when it comes to a company's bottom line.

Sure, if you approach the average person about an obscure topic like their privacy on the internet, they probably don't have strong opinions about it because that is outside of their wheelhouse, and they probably haven't given it much thought. If you couch privacy in terms that they are familiar with, such as drawing parallels to Supreme Court cases regarding surveillance and privacy, suddenly they care about whether or not they're being stalked online by corporations and governments.

For example, right to repair is something that most people don't think about. However, if you press the average person about whether they think they have the right to repair their own vehicle, suddenly everyone has strong opinions about it. People assume they have the right to use their hardware as they see fit, and aren't afraid of such options.
The non-technical customers probably aren't running WSL2 either. In fact I think very few of them actually need a VPN. Those who torrent in litigious countries have a benefit from their VPN provider but I doubt most others don't know about the behaviour changes that need to take place to make a VPN effective.

I think VPNs can be a powerful tool for many people who would normally not be able to find out about their existence, but the predatory nature modern VPN ads have taken is quite sad.

This leads to some cases of Youtube fan bases angrily calling out shitty VPN ads while the video creators just want to pay their bills, a situation nobody wants.
who the hell wrote this copy? The writers of Idiocracy? What's with all the empty naive bombastic language?

'The ultimate', 'super fast', 'hyperspeed', 'Extreme Battery Saver', 'Superfast downloads', 'Ultrasmooth streaming', ' superfast signal', 'ultrawide lens', 'jaw-dropping', 'super-smooth panning'.

They should finish with 'If you don't buy it, fuck you!'
If they're not that sophisticated they probably won't use WSL anyway though, so it's not a huge issue in that sense (unless some malware specifically installs WSL2 to get around it).
Yeah, I’m with you having worked in a fab for a short time.

But... it assumed all other things related to structure and configuration etc remained the same. That hasn’t been true for a while and so now it’s “10nm equivalent” shortened to 10n. Can’t remember when that started to change... maybe at 280?
I addressed this preemptively earlier today [1]. As it happens, I would also like to enable or disable new tab pages without disabling an extension entirely. Perhaps you could file an issue with Mozilla asking for this functionality? I'd integrate it into Tridactyl in an instant if I could.

Regarding the focus stealing: having focus on the page was one of our most requested features. Unfortunately it isn't trivial to have it be optional.
