I tried it briefly and no they don't?

For example, pressing "f" with Vimium should enumerate things that can be clicked(think anchor elements and button elements) but it enumerates nothing on https://gallery.flutter.dev/#/. This is a pretty good proxy for accessibility too i.e. things that can be clicked look like they can be to the machine. A quick document.querySelectorAll('a') and document.querySelectorAll('button') in the console verifies that there are no such elements.

Another one, basic browser features like backswipe on the trackpad to go back just doens't work.

Custom user agent stylesheets is another accessibility/power user feature that will not work

In a recent post linked on HN, Steve Yegge basically nailed it:

> How much new software was written in something other than Python, which might have been written in Python if Guido hadn’t burned everyone’s house down? It’s hard to say, but I can tell you, it hasn’t been good for Python. It’s a huge mess and everyone is miserable.

Note to future language maintainers: don't burn everyone's house down.
We're focusing on RPGs mostly, and working on integrations with popular systems such as D&D. Playtable honestly looks very sweet, I love the 3D that still kind of feel like 2D, I didn't really enjoy the Tabletop Simulator 3D which feels too "clunky" for my taste.
The Earth is pulling the Moon along its orbit faster than the default speed of the orbit, by dragging the tides ahead of where they would normally be. So the Earth's rotational energy is translating into a higher orbital energy for the Moon.

Ensenada. Beautiful out in the hills but very sleepy. Colorado beats it by a mile. Security wise it's been okay for a month but the undercurrent of fear about it online and among people I've met here is not great, as is having a lower level of trust in rule of law and police here in general.
I really think this is great.

But I think it will hurt the big cities. Who wants to put up with poop on the sidewalks, homeless armies, high rent, etc. when you could live beach-side somewhere and draw the same salary?

On the flip side, we tried it, and it was a huge hassle for our DM to create levels every time, to the point where we couldn't meet as often because of how fiddly creating the levels was. On the players' side, it the UI was dog-slow and clunky as well, so we went back to Roll20.net, though that's not great either.
I started this course and the animations/presentation are amazing. some really clear explanations. But the fake cute-sy dialogue and the extra fluff that says how wonderful and amazing and great and FUN liveview is means I didn't get past the first video

Exactly. The goal is a great product. If we focus on that and the gratification that comes with it, any other kinds of success, be it financial or otherwise, are only because we have that core goal first in mind - every_single_day.

There are some differences in the details between KJ C++, and both Rust and my Rust-inspired C++ guidelines:

> Value types always have move constructors (and sometimes copy constructors). Resource types are not movable; if ownership transfer is needed, the resource must be allocated on the heap.

In Rust, all types (including resources) are movable.

> Value types almost always have implicit destructors. Resource types may have an explicit destructor.

What's an explicit destructor? Rust's File type closes upon destruction, and one criticism of the design is that it ignores all errors. The only way to know what errors occurred is to call sync_all() beforehand.

However, "Ownership" and "Reference Counting" (and "Exceptions" to an extent) feel very Rust-like.

> If a class's copy constructor would require memory allocation, consider providing a clone() method instead and deleting the copy constructor. Allocation in implicit copies is a common source of death-by-1000-cuts performance problems. kj::String, for example, is movable but not copyable.

When you include such a class in a larger structure, it breaks the ability for the outer class to derive a copy constructor automatically (even an explicit one, or a private one used by a clone() method). What's the best way to approach this?

That is a common misunderstanding of canonical Catholic teaching about "indulgentia a culpa et a poena".

Keeping the carbon offset analogy, an indulgence in the Catholic sense would be more akin to first making sure you are carbon neutral (all parties are at peace and forgiven/reconciled), then you spend %10 of your salary to go beyond that and offset the carbon credits of the person you wronged.
"Hold", it will be soon available (https://utrust.com/hold/).

It's powered by Utrust which doesn't add any fee (only the seller gets a fee: 1% of the selling price). They just actually just introduced what they called reverse stacking : If you stack 1000 utk, you can get the 1% fee payed by the seller.

I am not sure about how much fees Visa will add from their part of the currency transfer. But I guess these fees will stay the same no matter which project you use as long as Visa is part of the payment solution.
Me too, re. Nest Secure - it seemed like a perfect no-contract product for managing security. It is a bizarre move given their investment/buyout (not sure) of ADP. Here's hoping Google's new year's resolution for 2021 is 'Reincarnation' and they start by bringing back all of the products they've killed, one by one (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imagine_%28John_Lennon_song%29 .)
In the first post, it was suggested that I was blaming someone. There is nobody there to blame, it seems more like a misunderstanding or a case of missed expectations, which is why I said I didn't understand. In the second post, it was suggested that my request for clarification means I have some sort of "syndrome" which was based on a misrepresentation of my position. I don't find this to be productive conversation.

I'd love to talk about bugs but I have no interest in talking about them if it involves this kind of behavior. And I don't have a dog in any fight either—both of these projects will likely be around for a very long time.
I wouldn't expect ray tracing on the consoles to be better than Nvidia 2xxx ray tracing performance and that was only useful as a small gimmick just to put the "ray tracing" label on a game or a couple decent effects but at 30 FPS. I'm not even sure the 3xxx does ray tracing well enough to be worth it and it's ~2x the performance level.

I.e. just because games on the consoles can support ray tracing now doesn't mean they actually support it well. I still think it's a generation or 2 away from running well (as a current 2080 Ti owner)

Regarding research - hrm, not seeing super much out there but societies have evolved (or devolved if you care) into democracies pretty reliably and democratization seems to be a general government trend.

I don't disagree on the point of voting - it's not technically a direct election of the president. But we're still voting to impact the presidential election and my vote counts more toward that decision than my friend in WA.
>a. how this announcement precludes any other lawsuits against the companies you're mentioning

I feel like the answer to this is pretty obvious, but to state the obvious, Google exists in the same timeline as the companies in other industries that I listed, and in most cases have arrived later on the timelines and engaged in less egregious offenses than a number of other companies, yet Google were prioritized for anti-trust action ahead of those other companies.

>why the fact that other industries also ought to be broken up has any bearing on whether Google has engaged in anti-competitive behavior?

I think if you read my comment and heard "Google is not engaging in anti-competitive behavior", you heard something I did not write. I think a wide range of companies ought to be challenged for anti-competitive behavior, including Google, and many of them have engaged in much more egregious offenses than Google, yet Google is targeted while others haven't been. Whatever impetus would have lead to prosecuting Google out to have lead to targeting a number of other companies before getting to Google.

The hypothetical possibility that worse companies that ought to have been higher priorities might possibly be prosecuted in the future is not something that I feel is responsive the to point here.
Serious question: do you have experience with “drop in replacements” for reference implementations? They’re rarely 100% compatible. Especially when the reference implementation isn’t formally specified.

Moreover, you continue to cherry pick, neglecting the other arguments you’ve been presented. It sounds like you’ve already made up your mind about this.
Curious Case of Erwin Rommel
Okay, thank you. I see Gitlab is mostly Ruby. Just to get a general idea of the code this is a simple PHP function to use it:

https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/gwolle-gb/trunk/f...

That function can be called when the register form has been submitted. It will return true or false. Forget about the transient stuff, that is just WordPres caching stuff.

You don't need an API key like with Akismet. You would only need it if you want to add or remove entries from the SFS database. It really is much simpler. Ofcourse you might want to have a checkbox in the settings. But still, in an afternoon you might be able to finish this :)

Wish you the best.

People constantly, openly make statements like "We don't need any jerks working here!" or "We don't hire jackasses" and are lauded and supported. Switching to a synonym which is maybe more often associated with female instead of male gets everyone in the entire department fired?

What a horribly toxic environment. I can't imagine any employees slept soundly at night knowing that if they were in the room when someone said a PG-13 word that they'd be fired on the spot.

Carbon capture methods already exist, they're just not sexy, profit-generating, or tech-based.

Example: Raise fast-growing forestry (e.g. pine), harvest it, then bury in deep pits. Repeat. The buried carbon will release just ~3% back to the atmosphere in a decade. The sequestration potential of this technique alone is significant, of the kind of scale we need to tackle the issue. All of the fields of knowledge we need to execute on it (forestry, landfill, mining) are well-developed today.

Pretending it's a problem with no existing solutions is a ploy to secure investments and diverts attention from action that could be taken today. But, of course, there's no money in that.

It maybe is. The surgeon was surprised when I declined general anesthesia for surgery on my wrist bones. Apparently nearly everyone wants to be put under if they're going to cut.

Objectively sedation would be the riskiest part of the procedure. And I wanted to see what it looked like. It was completely painless, but also quite unsettling. I'm pretty distant and cold about things in general, and I would imagine other people might find it distressing or even traumatic.

We know it's all too easy to print a page with identifying information on somebody with arbitrary sum attached. It should be illegal to harass somebody with information like this - I'd assume if there is more, like e.g. a signed contract, it's easier to trace the borrowing.
My personal site is HTML/CSS only, but I decided to add a privacy-ok simple analytics solution to it [1]. So now it does have some JS on it, but I can live with its <1KB size. By deferring it it's just as fast as before.

I really only use it as a view counter - seeing that there are actually a few readers motivates me.

That tearing issue even comes from a tradeoff space: a couple days ago on another thread about X people were noting that to avoid the tearing Wayland seems to have higher latency, and some people (and I would be one of them, were I to experience this) care way more about lower latency than "never ever ever see tearing".
Many technical people end up in management simply because management is usually paid more for fewer hours. In some cases it's impossible to increase your salary unless you become a manager.

Moreover, it's a lot easier to see where you are in the management hierarchy, so the career "ladder" actually exists in a way that it doesn't on the technical side.

The hydrogen client for matrix.org (1) has an interesting approach using vanilla JavaScript and indexeddb.

Where can I live beachside without high rent?
No the person is speaking about the evolutionary nature of the virus
I struggle with the same thing. My mind is often too noisy to filter out the signal, let alone put into a structure suitable for tractability. I happened upon George Polya's "How to Solve It" book several years ago, which contains a very wholesome (and very useful) strategy for tackling problems. It's ostensibly about math problems, but you can apply it to anything.

Here are a few portions of his method that I always come back to:

---

Understanding the problem:

- What is the unknown?

- Draw a figure. Introduce suitable notation.

- Separate the various parts. Can you write them down?

Devising a plan:

- Have you seen it before? Do you know a related problem?

---

You can see the whole method at this link: https://imgv2-1-f.scribdassets.com/img/document/68994766/ori...

I use this approach in conjunction with an A4 piece of paper, or a note program capable of "outlining" functionality (expandable nodes). The latter works great for containing and structuring lots of information, and you can selectively show and hide different parts depending on what you're focusing on. Again, helping with filtering out the "noise" factor.

Another good approach is falling back to a plain-text editor such as Notepad.exe when you want to write anything down. I got that tip from the Pragmatic Programmer book. You can easily extend this to Markdown if needed.
> the demo seems to contain a launcher which allows to start multiple apps and switch between them.

If the count of apps is small, and all of them are written by you, it's not terribly complicated to pass exclusive access to display across processes.

Only becomes too complicated if you want many apps updating their windows at the same time, or support third-party apps.

> it's less work to just use the already-existing backend.

Short term, yes. Short term, a desktop OS and Electron is even less work.

Long term, desktop environments are huge, and you'll be dealing with long tail of issues related to their features. Each time they break something, you might need to pay hundreds of dollars just to ship the equipment to you for repairs and back.

When a desktop environment is physically missing from the system, along with all related GUI software, services, and libraries, it leaves much less things to break. Users can connect a USB/BT keyboard or mouse, no one gonna handle the events. They can do rude multitouch gestures on the touch screen, nothing unexpected gonna happen either.
> If I had to extend it by 500 years, I'm pretty sure I'd decline.

500 years sounds like just enough time to become an expert in dozen interesting things.

One entry in this space that doesn't get a lot of attention is ASP.NET Blazor [1]. Blazor gives you the option of writing views in C# that will actually compile to WebAssembly and run in the browser, or run on the server and send DOM updates over a SignalR connection, a lot like LiveView.

> Netflix, Hulu, Amazon and even HBO are middlemen

This is how the entertainment industry has worked for many decades, including the big studios, in that they're the financiers and marketing.

So they pay for and own the content, have exclusive distribution of the content, and you can't sidestep them to get to the content since it wouldn't exist with out them. Does that sound like middlemen?
These stories are incredible to hear, thanks for sharing
I think it depends a lot on what your goal is with the personal blog/site. If you want to improve it or gain attention, then analytics will be useful, but if you just want to have it for purely personal reasons than analytics might not help with your goal.

Though, it is still nice when you post an article to know how many people actually read it, but I think this could also be solved by adding a comment section.
i didn't bring it up, was just commenting on it
This seems unbelievable, but I've had some bad bloody wounds in circumstances where I was fully aware third party assistance was nowhere to be had.

The mind/body enters an interesting mode in my experience, where I become disassociated from the situation and can focus on what needs to be done. The pain strangely suppresses temporarily, until a sense of completion/achieving stability is restored.

Having deployed liveview for an admin dashboard, I gotta say, it really is great FUN, and no-fuss, even if you're slinging together a system that customers never see so you don't care if the code gets a bit knotty, and your datastructures are abjectly awful.
I mean I think the “sole” contributor your are referring to is Keith Packard? Don’t see any reason to not name names here. In any case I guess what I find odd is that while he did a shit ton of work in spearheading a fork, it’s not like it was just him. There were a lot of people, greatly outnumbering the XFree86 steering committee that were unhappy with the direction of the project. It’s not like it was just Keith. That’s what I find odd about your assessment. Obviously there was enough consensus to fork.
They are fairly expensive but if You're working on a grant proposal You might want to consider asking for funds to purchase a CNC embroidery machine and CNC fabric cutter.

I would suggest a Bernina embroidery unit and a Brother scan N Cut. Tie this in with Arduino LilyPad Etextiles boards and I think you have something.

This could have a side benifit by encouraging more boys to engage in the textiles and fashion industry.

In that episode of The Office, Clark uses that Star Trek reference and his superior knowledge of the position he's applying to to get the job instead of Dwight's friends. I'm aware that it's from Star Trek (that's also mentioned in the episode), but I appreciate your detailed explanation!

I guess it's still targeting the client-side SPA case, but I think Svelte[0] is worth a shoutout for taking a different approach than React/Vue/Angular/etc. The Svelte "framework" is really just a compiler that produces a small bundle of vanilla JS that updates the DOM directly (no virtual DOM).

I.e., if policy A is already unpopular, bringing up an even less popular policy B won't help you.

I would be curious to hear of an economy where business expenses were not deductible.

Such an economy would either need a super low tax rate or I imagine would have strangled everything but the highest margin businesses.

I would hazard to assume such an economy does not exist but I've been wrong before.

In a similar vein Japan still has a tax on capital goods depreciation. One would expect the government to encourage capital investments. Canada and US removed this tax over a decade ago, yet it continues in Japan. Perhaps tax policy like this is in part responsible for Japan's sluggish corporate investment.
I also apologize if I was seen as being rude or demanding or condescending but my request was sincere. I don't find that type of conversation to be productive and all I can do when it's directed at me is ask someone nicely to stop. I'll repost the other part of my post because I think it gets to the substance of the issue.

Re global hotkeys: I still don't understand your complaint. You just described two applications that didn't work and then went on to explain how one of them was made to work on Wayland. Yes, applications need to be ported, no solution on the Wayland side will ever change that. If the complaint is that the chosen method adds latency, or that the config setting has moved, those are vastly different than your original complaint which is that it doesn't work. Is that closer to what you were getting at?
