I think that is pretty clear, but I think taking that approach of excising them is going to shoot themselves in the foot.

It should be clear that this isn't "just" trying to be mission focused, that was very eloquently written and timely, but it is failing because it is a reaction to internal issues which wasn't clear to the rest of us. And as such it has stirred a hornets nest that also no longer wants to keep things inside the company.

Many of the people it has stirred are also people that have been fighting for more inclusivity and also identify as part of underrepresented groups. People that feel like their voice isn't loud enough because they are so few inside the companies. This doesn't represent everyone in underrepresented groups, only that there is a significant overlap in the goals of inclusivity and people that want the company to be more welcoming by speaking out against inherently political nationalism, which the company doesn't want to do.

I'm not offering any solution only observation.
I have never used SwiftUI so I can't comment on it. However, separation of concerns doesn't need to take extra development time. Inlining all CSS and JS is like dropping the MVC model because creating all the necessary classes is taking too much time; focusing on short term gains only lead to a mediocre end result, one that nobody wants to maintain five years down the line.

Good React is fine for large applications, but not for websites. Even in applications a few lines of Javascript and a rendering backend can replace entire JS frameworks. Try disabling Javascript for a day and you can see how many pages just become a white screen because whatever is replacing the browser's renderer isn't loading.

> Twitter is a good example, great performance.

I agree that it's a great example, but it performs horribly for me. I use their website on my phone and videos rarely play back properly, content jumps around while navigating, empty screens and loading bars are everywhere. Sometime I just have to reload because the Twitter website decided it doesn't want to load images anymore. Nitter links, on the other hand, load instantly, including image and video content, because of its minimalist approach.

Server side rendering is a welcome improvement because it means the developer doesn't offload the website's calculations to their visitors. I'm fine with whatever framework people pick on the server, as long as my browser doesn't get its rendering engine replaced by the fancy framework for the week.
There used to be something similar to do this called "scoped styles", but they were removed in favor of WebComponents. We could have had this without all of the Shadow DOM baggage.

Personally I am economically left of California and socially right of them. I prefer higher taxes, spend those taxes to help the poor get better opportunities, and then evaluate based on merit. California instead prefer to do lower taxes, let poor suffer and then give them bonus points in selection processes.
>Every time I click "vouch" I wonder if a counter is being incremented on my account, or if a record of things I've vouched is being kept for moderator perusal.

There is. I've lost vouching privileges after the mods disagreed with my decisions. They don't tell you, either, you'll just notice one day that it no longer seems to work.
> So what if instead, we just allow the airlines to lay off tens of thousands of people and the money we would have spent bailing out the business side + workers just goes to the workers instead? It could even include job training or something else to help those that want to change industries.

This. Let the airlines go bankrupt but help the workers directly. If demand does come back some savvy entrepreneurs will be able to pick up the airline assets for a cheap price and get them back into business again in a few years.
Is better C++ interop the motivation for Clasp over Julia (which has lispy roots and CLOS-like open multimethods, though not lispy syntax)? Julia is conspicuously missing in the benchmark, but should do pretty well if you don't include JIT/start-up time.

> animations are done in JS instead of smooth CSS transitions, drag and drop support is manually rewritten in JS...

I mean... maybe in some legacy plugins that budget-shops drop into a Wordpress site without thinking. This stuff doesn't really happen anymore in real projects; there's not much point.

> Whenever a feature gets added to standard HTML, web frameworks and "polyfills" keep implementing their own versions because the standards don't fit them and they don't want to rewrite (or keep their own implementation as a mere fallback).

I think you misunderstand what polyfills are. Polyfills exist as an implementation of the standard, before the standard has been fully supported. They get stripped out when possible. In no way are they "their own version" of the standard.

> Even if a data binding framework would be standardized today, it would take years for browsers to catch up and gain critical mass.

It definitely wouldn't. All major browsers get silent auto-updates now, and Chromium alone has over 75% of the market share now that Edge is based on it. Google was the one pushing web components in the first place, and today Firefox and Safari would face pressure to keep up lest they lose ground when more sites become "just for Chrome". The silver lining of the browser monoculture is that features get implemented quickly.

> There'd only be more polyfills and Javascript to help support people running IE11 or whatever.

Possibly. But in today's world polyfills are less and less necessary (see my previous statement). Most companies these days just write off IE and outdated browsers as not worth bothering with. And for all those other browsers, there would be a dramatic drop in the amount of Javascript.

> HTML templates have been introduced and then ignored by frameworks already

HTML templates are the prime example of how useless the web component standard is in its current form: they literally just hold DOM nodes. Those DOM nodes can't appear on the page without being cloned by JavaScript. They gain no special functionality. They just sit there. Templates without databinding are hardly better than an HTML string.
If Nike (or any competition for that matter) advertises ALL personnel involved with kids must pass thorough background check, how long do you think it will take before Varsity does the same? Failure to do so would be a death knell for Varsity.
> not really a fair comparison since erlang is a fully fledged operating system (joke).

Oh, Robert Virding told me once the plan was to make it essentially an OS. So, it's only a joke in the "Ha ha but seriously" sense.

Lisp also fits all those criteria and is quite efficient, but it developed under different design constraints.
Try using that watch with Android. That's where the walled garden is. Or try writing an app that does complex stuff via NFC. Or a browser engine. Or another app store like fdroid. Or an emulator. Or sideload the apps that Apple doesn't want you to have. Etc etc.

You can do so much in apple's garden that you may never need to leave it, depending on your usecase. If you don't run into it, it doesn't mean the wall isn't still there.
Part of the problem is that early on the US media actively misinformed people about this crucial point for partisan reasons, describing the naive CFR as the real WTO-confirmed fatality rate and lower figures as Trumpian lies created to downplay the severity of the disease.

PayPal Legend Peter Thiel Invests $52M into Bitpanda with Valar Ventures
Not OP and don't use JS, but generally speaking, a lot of these languages that transpile one language into another (or compile one language to another for those that insist transpile is the wrong word), it comes up with a less efficient result than if I had just used the original language. Or at least a different program. So if I use Type Script that gets converted to JavaScript, the end result will be different than if I had done it like that to begin with (not necessarily slower either).

Also...I guess there are situations where using something (Ex: C) could lead to faster code than me using Assembly by myself if the compiler is smarter than me (GCC knows a lot more about hardware than I do).

We actually paid an euro for a few old Marklin ad folders on some flea market. My son loves them, and I have to agree they are beautifull.

These extreme values for France etc are projections into the future, I'm not entirely sure what they're basing it on. I've only looked at the graphs up to this day. For some reason they are saying that France will drop from -12% to -84% in one day, I guess they're saying the country will go into complete and utter lock down which I don't believe is true and definitely not a fact.

Tell me, what precisely is the economic mechanism that makes California loose money from Sonorense migrants, but not from South Carolinian migrants. What is it that migrants from Baja California, Liberia, or Ireland lack in commonalty with native Californians but migrants from Louisiana have?

I’m also a little confused as to what you mean by zero-sum by law. Is there a law that states that the federal government has to pay with each immigrant? If a Jamaican immigrant produces growth for the US (say by doing labor and contributing to the economy), then the US has to, by law, pay that growth back to Jamaica? Are we not talking about economic zero-sum?

I do have a couple of talks on YouTube and thank you (the most recent one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbdXeRBbgDM). Yes - we are building molecules using our code.

We literally started compiling the first molecules using an application I implemented in Cando (Clasp + computational chemistry) yesterday.

Guess what, there are rich people in 3rd world countries too. I once met a Bangladesh teenager on IRC, who was the son of someone popular in that country, and he did have enough money to buy pretty good parts to assemble a pc. His problem was not the money, rather the availability of the parts.
I don't think the GP was arguing against that. If you're already committed to an existing build process building new components as web components doesn't really have many advantages vs a component built in react. It's just adding needless complexity.

AT&T doesn't even allow direct internet access, every single connection goes through their horrendously bad transparent proxy that breaks TLS 1.3, breaks ESNI, causes a SSL_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG connection reset if you negotiate only modern ciphers, and sits in the middle of every connection to prevent things like obfsproxy.

> "people are some combination of 1) scared, and 2) spiteful. Wanting to see the economy fail to punish rich people and corporations."

that's an odd conception of what's going on. because they control capital, the well off among us (esp. in CA) imposed restrictions of movement/congregation and economic travesty upon the rest to decrease by tenths of a percent their risk of contracting and dying from covid, while largely ignoring those same restrictions for themselves. this is a serious, existential concern for our democratic republic, and an extremely poor allocation of resources from an economic perspective.

the mode of transmission is straightforward: prolonged exposure to the exhaust of others (not the air, not surfaces, not touching, but breathing exhaust). we could have gotten the same level of mitigation for much less intervention by radically simplifying messaging for the public (hospitals and care facilities should have more elaborate mitigations) down to one simple rule: "distance indoors around strangers, and where you can't, wear a mask." but that didn't serve media or political interests (as expressors of the wealthy) well, so we have the mess we're in.
Engineering is soul crushing too, not everyone makes decent salaries in the bay area or elsewhere, engineers have zero social status, unlike lawyers. There is no "normal distribution". And don't forget that as a lawyer, you don't face the type of age discrimination that engineers deal with, and you don't have to "relearn" your tools every few years because something else is now in fashion. Law stays mostly what it is, and the tools don't change. Obviously you have to keep "up to date" with the law, but that's it.

> If you're looking at human cost, then yes, deaths is what matter. If you're evaluating protocols to prevent infection, then cases per capita is exactly what you care about.

But there is no reason to care whether infection is prevented or not, unless infection carries some sort of cost. That metric has no value on its own.
The most important feature in a phone I think is the call recording. If I have a conversation with my doctor, sometimes I like to re-listen to it in case I got the dosage of medication wrong or misunderstood something. I also record all calls with my parents. They are very old now and I want to keep their voice.
I learned that recent Android versions have call recording disabled because Google claims it is illegal to record someone without their knowledge (and at the same time they don't disable the cameras). It is legal in my country though and it shouldn't be up to Google to decide.

So my question is - is it possible to record calls on Pixel 5?

I am in the market for a new phone, but I keep reading conflicting reports that likely call recording is disabled.

The rationale for opening 999,998 doors in my example versus the 1 door left, is that in both examples, Monty Hall opens every door except the one you're on, and 1 other door. It happens that in the normal Monty Hall, if you open every door except the one you're on, and 1 other door, you have only opened one door.

Monty Hall is asking you a simple question, whether or not you should switch, and so in my example of 1,000,000 whether or not you open 999,998 doors, or 1 door, you will always have worse odds to win if you don't switch to another door. Removing 999,998 doors just takes the proposition to an extreme.

Another component to utilize one's intuition using the 999,998 example, would be to imagine the game being played 3 times in a row. What are the odds that not switching will help you? So basically, not switching is disregarding everything Monty Hall is doing. You are either behind a door or you are not. You don't switch. If that is how you play the game, your chance of choosing right when not switching is 1/1,000,000 each game, or 1/10^18 for it to happen 3 times in a row. Now, consider what Monty is doing. He's removing every chair but two, yours and another. If the odds of you winning are 1/1,000,000 if you don't switch, What are the odds of doing _the opposite_? Since there are only two options, the probability of winning if you switch is 1-1/1,000,000, or 999,999/1,000,000, as the sum of the probabilities of all possible events has to add up to 1.

The "999,998" chairs removed example is an attempt at making the dichotomy between "stay" and "switch" more extreme, so that you would feel it in your gut rather than trying to mentally account for the moving pieces.

I'm always interested in improving my ability to explain these kinds of phenomena, and I appreciate the pointing out of why the dots don't get connected for some with the example.

I remember getting a very helpful tip as an undergrad Math major: once you start doing senior undergrad/early graduate level classes, expect each textbook page to take a long time to read. Upwards of an hour is not uncommon. And I found this to be very true in my own experience.

I'm always struck by this thought when I see code like this. It's not a lot of code, but if I had to actually go through and internalize it, it would certainly take me a while.

For a real-world example of these CPU's being used in actual products today, I was doing some maintenance on a current-model GCC LaserPro Spirit laser engraver/cutter a while back and was a little surprised (and delighted, because it's just fun to see something that's not x86 or ARM in the wild once in a while) to find a ColdFire CPU on the motherboard. These are very popular machines used in production in all kinds of businesses.
> they don't support joins in views

Perhaps you mean they don't support joins in Materialized Views (uppercase M)? We use Snowflake views with joins all over the place. Furthermore if views don't cut it for you, you can always use joins in UDTFs. Or if you really need joins in a materialize view (lowercase M), you can use change streams in combination with joins to maintain your own materialized view (table).

Are all engineering jobs so boring?
I am working as a software engineer for a very successful startup. The hiring bar is high, pay is good and I should be happy. Except that I'm not. I am extremely bored to the point that I struggle to get myself out of bed every single day.

All I do is translate requirements to code. The biggest challenge is to understand what's already there and try to not break things. All the design choices are already made, and I just follow existing patterns.

As soon as you become familiar with these patterns, there is no growth. If you want to grow, you need to spend your own time learning things outside of the company, be it courses or whatnot.

My question is:
Have you experienced this and if so, what did you do to combat this?
Is this generally a normal thing in the industry or only specific to fast-moving startups?
Maybe my expectations are just unreasonable, and if so, how do I know?
> If there was no opponent who would they be?

So, what you are saying, is that compared to say, the US, Sweden has been subjected to a truly draconic lockdown.

Edit: I'm not sure I understand the karmic sentiment. In the US, closing movie theatres and requiring patrons to wear masks was controversial.

Being criminally charged for going outside would be considered tyranny - so it's a little odd to hear that Sweden is given as example of a less-locked down country.
