I don't want them to be styled, thank you very much.

> JS animation can be super fast (see GSAP) and it seems you're talking about jQuery.animate() which I agree was terrible. But these days most people use CSS animations.

GSAP is giving me stuttery animation when I scroll through their website on my phone, presumably because it's constantly updating the DOM to keep control of the animation. It's not as bad as the state of JS animation was 10 years ago, but I can think of very few use cases where such a library would actually be necessary instead of using pre-calculated CSS transitions and such.

How senior are you? Or is this your first job?

When you start out in your career, companies put tight bounds on what you can do. You get a narrow set of requirements with clear expectations for what you are to produce.

Over time, you prove that you're able to get things done on your own, exercising good judgment along the way. As you move up in seniority, the scope of your responsibilities expands. You're given bigger goals, broader targets, and more leeway for how to accomplish them.

This is a general rule, but there are exceptions, of course. Some companies end up so overstaffed that every step of the process is carefully divided up into different people's domains. Generally speaking, the more overstaffed the company, the less autonomy you're going to have and the narrower your scope. Highly funded startups are notorious for overhiring and therefore pigeon-holing a lot of people into gruntwork roles.
I'm using it for a while now for https://objfw.nil.im/ and am quite happy with it. I wrote a little bit about that at https://blog.nil.im/?78.

It's quite sad to see that so few projects use it. The idea of having everything in one repo, incl. bugs, is just great. I can create new bugs while offline, update bugs while offline, etc. and then just sync everything once I'm back online.

It also has pretty good support for incrementally importing from and exporting to Git: https://blog.nil.im/?79

> However I think Calculus in High School is a bit ridiculous. If a student has reached that point they should be transitioning to a middle college program where they can spend more time on the subject without burning out dealing with the High School hoop jumping.

It's possible for a student to be advanced in math but not equally advanced in other fields; it's also possible for a student to be academically but not emotionally advanced; both of these may make it better for a student who is academically prepared for calculus to pursue it in high school rather than a post-secondary environment.

If you look at some of the individual benchmarks, they show that c, c++, rust, ada, and fortran are all over each other.

I expect the difference in this case is either due to differences between llvm and gcc; differences in the standard library implementation; or because rust requires strict aliasing by default.

But legit question, why would you want to play a game in Linux and not in Windows?

I’m not even being rhetorical, I’m genuinely curious if there are games with significantly better performance under Linux (and I’m assuming we would have to be talking about using an AMD card so I’m also curious if that performance under Linux is better than an Nvidia card under either OS), because maybe there are and I’m just totally unaware.

And I'm ashamed that you're describing a number of hysterectomies that at most, using laughably high estimates, could number in the thousands, as genocide. (Which would be horrible! But also leave enough evidence that it would clearly not be one or two cases)

If someone's actually attempting genocide and all they can manage is a few thousand sterilizations, they should be fired for incompetence, too! (Plus, you know, genocide)

Further, is there any evidence that you would be willing to accept that genocide is not happening here? Any source that you'd be willing to commit to accepting?

Creative Destruction: The Risks of Not Innovating
There's so much more missing that makes me think this is an engineer writing about how biological research should be in theory, without the understanding and experience the complicated nature of biological research. Well, suppose we want to give "every drug, at every dosage, every regiment, and in every combination to a mouse". Well, that's a combinatorially large search space and one reason drug companies focus on high throughput screening of drugs before applying them to mice. Then even for the promising ones you have other effects that will skew your results, like handler effects (e.g. https://www.nature.com/news/male-researchers-stress-out-rode...). If we want to apply the drugs to that many mice, are we only gonna use female mice because males tend to fight and kill each other when placed in the same cage? Then what do we do about the sex skew? Then there's the fact that 96 million years separate humans from mice, which is relatively short in a genetic perspective but not that much from an epigenetic perspective. How well will results translate?

This is just off the top of my head, and I'm not a biologist.
I'm sure actual experienced biological researchers can come up with a whole bunch of other issues. Because more often than not biology is whole lot messier than we can imagine.

Riding a bike is hard. It is a lot like swimming, so many motions at the same time. The body has to think it, not the cortex. There is this great smarter everyday segment on a reverse bike. I recommend it for everyone.

My kids first word was, "no". Her first sentence was, "help me no". I use those as guides to maintain the distance she desires.

Athletics like art are one of those accomplishments and outlets that kids can embrace at a young age w/o having the "when I grow up" statements. They can start living their lives in the now w/o adults putting it off to a later date.

Watching a kid finally get riding a bike is a wonderful thing.

I've seen this movie.
Yeah, it is a bit nitpicky, but overall I've been totally underwhelmed with Google Assistant. Maybe it was their marketing for how "advanced" of an AI it is (when all they really mean is its voice recognition is pretty strong).

My issues in general which lead me to locking down the permissions, and not really looking back, is that its frustrating to work with. If I'm trying to text hands free in my car it has random delays that have no audio cue to work with. If I'm holding the phone, I can feel its vibrations telling me when its ready... but I'm driving, so handling the phone itself seems like a poor choice.

After that I tried some things like "Ok Google, when I get home remind me to put the trash out"... to which point it launches a calendar app and requires me to manually press things... or mishears me and just tries googling for random shit. Again, not helpful while driving.

I tried playing with it. I had my navigation open while commuting in an unfamiliar corner of the country once and I said: "Ok Google, I need to use the bathroom"... so it google searched constipation cures.

For the record, the permission it wants me to enable is Web & App Activity Tracking... which should not block me from voice texting but here we are.

---

Nitpickiness aside, it just isn't that special anymore is it? I don't see what's so special about a niche, buggy voice prompt that requires me to run apps manually half the time. Its a nice feature to include, but it has never felt like a "selling point" to the phone lines.
Sounds like an optimistic plan.

You cannot bring cherries into california from almost all USA states (except AZ, NV, CO, and WY). I experienced this personally. The state border crossing took cherries from us while we crossed from Oregon, less than 3 months ago, and dumped the cherries in trash.

This is not limited to businesses, and is not a pandemic measure. This has been a long standing policy, meant to protect california's agriculture. Oh, the free trade exponent country has protectionism practiced by its states.
I suspect that the average person unfortunately responds better to (i.e. is more likely to buy after seeing) such a "fancy" presentation instead of being repulsed by many of us who are extremely used to how certain functions work and expect consistency (and usually just want to see the specs, not a sales pitch).

O_o

how a branch-to-be-pulled for your backend will break SystemZ unless you've been modifying the shared middle end.

OP:
They make it harder to develop because all of a sudden you realize that some standard interface is not implemented on them, and you have regression test failures that you need to work around.

I don't think the OP said anywhere that he was exclusively developing an arch backend.

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.

Yes - and this all goes back to what the OP complained about - that these are moribund platforms and that keeping them running is an undue burden for devs working on living archs and extending the Clang/LLVM spine.

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

...which is why the OP mentioned that it might be an unpopular opinion.

The OP is doing work for you, extending Clang/LLVM while keeping it in working order for platforms that shouldn't be supported based on deployments, "beating [it] into shape" for you. Snarky replies like "use the right compiler options, duh" seem mean-spirited.

You can't nail people's door shut in the US with them inside, which happened in Wuhan.

The web components under the hood would still need a way to program themselves in response to that data, so a templating language would need to be baked in along with data binding.

Secondary languages are a bad idea, so hopefully this templating language would be something like jsx/ejs.

The proposal really is to bake applications support in to the browser. That seems right to me. The browser is more and more an os, and it should support rich applications out of the box.

React is derivative of windows application development, so there is precedent for something like it to be baked in to an OS.
Why wouldn't they just release Windows 10 instead? They don't "need" the money (because any self-respecting IT department that has a modicum of budget will pay for Microsoft 365, where they almost give away the Windows licenses and support, or have a SA license), so the only people still really buying Windows are home users with their laptops. Enthusiasts could maybe submit pull requests, and they could get rid of even more in-house dev/QA staff. It's the latest version of the kernel, so new drivers work. And they are still patching it.

The real money is in Azure/Office/MSSQL anyway.

I'm genuinely confused at what you're trying to get at here. I mean, in the abstract, sure, if an infection had no "cost" we wouldn't care about how widespread it was. But it's fairly well-established by now that this specific infection carries not only a small but obviously real risk of death, but a risk of lingering, debilitating effects that go far beyond the respiratory system.
I fail to see your point. We eliminated the virus in the country. There were no active cases of COVID, and we're on track to eliminate it again.

If your house has rats and you call an exterminator, you don't say you still have rats because other houses do and they might show up again.
Apparently it's also without a headphone port, which is a deal breaker for me.

Berkshire has made large investments in companies (outside their insurance float capital) where they weren't buying 100% ownership. See their investments in Goldman Sachs, BofA, Pilot Flying J, Nebraska Furniture Mart, and others.

Buffett and Berkshire are attractive as an investor because they send a strong confidence signal and because they are known to be extremely hands off.
Is it just me or is Google consistently awful at product marketing? They've already had a Google TV that they killed. They've also already killed Chromecast Audio. Now this thing is called "Chromecast with Google TV". I think consumers are going to be confused.

I've seen people complain that talking about Sweden's approach is pointless because other countries that took the same approach couldn't expect the same results, but that's actually much more clear for New Zealand. For a start, just the inherent leakage of infections into the country through the quarantine hotel system, imports, etc - which causes a new imported cluster say every hundred days or less at New Zealand scale - means that a larger country would never reach the point where they eliminate Covid. Then there's the problem that other countries are just too well connected compared to an island nation a thousand miles from anywhere - if you tried the same thing in EU countries or the UK, you'd run into the problem that they rely on a constant stream of commercial trucking traffic across the border carrying important things like food, people live in different countries from their workplace, etc, all of which help spread the virus.
No, but you can legally stick a policeman outside and prevent them from leaving, which is functionally identical.

You can also legally take them into a complex and prevent them from leaving until they test negative, as has already been done for other infactions in the US.

The executive branch in the US also has the authority to rapidly execute such measures, and has done so historically.
Same story with me.

My Galaxy S7 is 4 years old. It's still very fast (never had to reset it) and still gets security updates (last one in August) although no more OS updates.

If I played AAA games on my smartphone, I might want an upgrade, but I do my gaming on PCs. Otherwise newer models don't really have that much appeal, except for the better camera (although I am not impressed by the fake bokeh effect). However, even for the camera, it always feels like a compromise whenever I use it, in that I put up with lower quality in exchange for convenience.
> This is why I'm frustrated with the idea that we need to enact change and policies at the federal level. The federal government should just exist to protect our liberties and organize national defense. Everything else should be organized more locally at the community level where voters actually have some skin in the game.

You'd think that after months of "locally led" covid responses in the US that this naive take would somehow become less popular.

Whether small-government enthusiasts like it or not, the US is highly interconnected on almost every level. There are certain things that absolutely require federal responses. Things like pollution and viruses absolutely need to be handled from a nation wide perspective. How would healthcare work as a piecemeal implementation across local lines? Its almost as if "letting localities decide" is a nice way of ensuring something will fail without forcing it outright.

Your argument is implying that the federal government is somehow ineffective, but given the federally led improvements across the last century - from roads to environmental regulations, public health and even the internet just shows that you're either ignorant of intentionally dishonest.
Germany did test more than a million people in that period and so did the UK[1]. The article is way off. UK does test more than Germany both absolute and relative. This isn't surprising since the UK has four times as many cases as Germany. But they also test more than the US and France, both of which have (much) higher case numbers. [2]

It irritates me that this has been a feature off and on since the Palm Pre or before, and that phone makers alternately trot it out as new shiny and then silently take it away again at random times. Every device should have it, IMO, for the convenience.
That's interesting, I experience the exact opposite. I find iOS quite satisfactory after some very light customization (mainly wallpaper), but when using Android something consistently feels missing and although it drives an urge to customize, I'm not sure could be sated through any amount of tweaking.
