"The world’s best solar power schemes now offer the “cheapest…electricity in history” with the technology cheaper than coal and gas in most major countries."

This is how you can be confident that anyone who says nuclear is the only solution to climate change hasn't looked at the state of the energy industry in 30 years. The price of solar power is a dirt cheap and still dropping exponentially.

Technical point: FTPS is FTP with TLS, but SFTP is a completely different protocol based on SSH.
It's what they describe though. You can use QRhi to write code that works on all platforms, it's low level enough already. ANGLE is redundant in this case and that's why it's gone. You don't need to write it for Metal or DX11, it'll map the RHI calls correctly and recompile SPIR-V to DXBC for example.

Islam is worse because it claims the Quran is the literal word of God. That doesn't really allow for the reinterpretation gymnastics that Christians can do, because they at least acknowledge their book is written by man.
I didn't know about that until just now. Thanks!
Yes, that seems like a pretty apt description :)
MVC doesn't mean "has data, logic, and UI". MVC is a model for how the UI communicates with the data store.
Why would I want to give up my various credit/debit cards and use a single app? I would be giving a single app all the payment power. This works well in a highly regulated Government controlled market. The EU and US allow anyone to compete. China does not.

A better and more realistic solution in the US is the personal bank to bank transfers people can easily do in the UK/EU.

This actually doesn't solve the underlying issue that I'm referencing. While this lets you share a pool between multiple processes it does not change the high memory requirements on Postgres to support a highly concurrent workload. One connection (10mb) still can only be doing one thing at a time. Most of the lifetime of a request the connection is idle but locked

In my case, I don't believe I had any GCC-only restrictions for the STM32F4 chip I was developing on, so I didn't ever run into this issue.

That being said, it's always worth experimenting with flags in YCM or clangd to see if you can get something working well enough for most development needs. I would take a look at the places where those `#ifdef GCC` macros are used and see if you can spoof the flags enough to get something workable. Throwing a `-DGCC` in your YCM flags, worst case scenario, will just raise an error message and you can remove it. Best case scenario, it won't behave quite the same as GCC but you can get basic linting, autocomplete etc. working. Sometimes this stuff requires a bit of exploration to get working the first time, but once you get a working setup it's very satisfying!
Exactly. Currency markets are kind of the ultimate in this sort of “faith-based” market.

What definition do you have of “framework” if you say that? I just see a bunch of procedures that create and manipulate DOM, coordinating through regular events and selectors. There are patterns and loose organizing principles, but no framework code that I can see.

I personally think it's an aesthetic choice at this point. I actually kind of like it.

I've come to associate the borderline absurdity of logos for open source projects with projects I like at this point, and I do think these kinds of logos are almost a shibboleth for certain kinds of software. I'd say it's less about not knowing how to do "better" or driving away designers and more about signaling "hey, this is NOT corporate software." I've always considered it as a community thing and a cultural quirk more than anything else. To come in and say "this unicorn is ugly, let me fix that for you" would be to misunderstand a lot of things about the context that the software exists in IMO.

To be clear, I didn't mean they aren't real, just that they are exaggerated and not the real reason many industry actors push for walled gardens and locked down devices.

Let me ask you this: of the many times your relatives had spyware, viruses or malware... do you remember a time when they caused real damage? I don't mean slowing down the computer or making it malfunction, but actually stealing something irreplaceable, identity theft or causing a real money loss? In other words, when were these instances more than annoyances?

Not sure why raised public attention would reduce credit card usage. People like the convenience, and I don’t see why they would care that it shaves a few basis points off of merchants’ margins. You’ll notice that in transactions with razor thin margins, credit cards aren’t accepted, restaurants being the major exception.

Think you're mixing up parallelism and concurrency. Other databases with connections that support pipelining can easily get to high concurrency even with a single core. The key is the cpu can kick off 100 queries to a single connection and just wake up when a response is available.

The problem isn't so much overlooking CCP's problems, it's that the CCP boogeyman becomes an excuse for overreactions. Everything remotely related to Chinese becomes under attack "because CCP bad".

Imagine a world in which every article that mentions any American company, receives a torrent of comments calling for the banning of that company, because "US government bad". And then, when one says that the company in question isn't a state company, commenters simply say "but they pay US taxes/have to follow US national security law/are monitored by PRISM, so they're effectively a mouthpiece of the US govt".

If the above scenario happens, I can very well imagine many Americans getting pissed off at the unfair treatment, and becoming more nationalist in response. Actually, that is already happening in China: since COVID-19 many Chinese are absolutely dismayed at the international response, which they view as unfair and biased. Nationalism and support for the CCP is at an all-time high in China.

To people who hate CCP it sure feels good to criticize and oppose everything remotely CCP-related (even private Chinese companies) at every turn. But my point is: you can't solve actual problems with this sort of attitude. Do you want to FEEL good, or DO good? I think more dialog and cooperation with China will do more to improve China, than by attacking CCP and Chinese companies at every turn, because the latter alienates Chinese people (already happening) and paradoxically make them more supportive of the CCP.

If China and the west come together, the whole world wins. If they attack each other, everybody loses.

That's unfortunate, because the resolution and fine control you get with optogenetics are really good in the periphery, offering high therapeutic potential for amputees and paraplegics. The main roadblock is the understudied immunogenicity problem, IMO.
Thanks for reading - original author here. For the precise quote you mentioned I came up with somewhat format rules which prevented building a framework (code-wise) for this case study. The "caveat" you mention is just an explanation for the chosen ruleset; I believe I haven't introduced any general-purpose DOM/UI code in the case study and instead only describe patterns (correct me if I'm wrong!). I agree with your view of framework value as I professionally use React on a daily basis and will continue to do so, for similar reasons :)

I think bluetooth is still crap.

My boise headphones start getting jittery audio when I’m more than two feet from my macbook.

My car will pre-empt every other audio device, and the sound is crap until I plug it into the USB port.

I can’t keep peripherals reliably connected when they sit less than 3’ away from my macbook.

Switching devices between sources is an absolute nightmare of overloaded switches and counting in my head. Two seconds to power off. Two taps to fast forward. Hold for volume up (but not longer than two seconds!). Five seconds for pairing mode. Aaaarrrgh.

Why do people jump to replace safari on their laptops, and even their iPhones (often with chrome)?

Even before I became aware, and strongly opposed to Google's advertising and privacy practices, I had been a Chrome user. I was on a long road trip and was frantically trying to solve a P1 for my company. My new laptop battery was was chunking downward at a staggering rate and I felt like I was trying to diffuse a bomb. I dug into the energy metrics and found that the culprit was, by and large, Chrome. Switching to Safari has made a huge improvement for me and I actually don't remember now why I was using chrome in the first place.

Firefox and brave are excellent too, though they aren't default in the Apple ecosystem. I just don't understand why the draw to chrome and why it still commands such a large market share.

h264 is still the only widely supported in-hardware decodeable codec out there (cheapest for the client) but google serves webm by default (cheapest for them and built in-house)

Very true, I could have it much worse. Honestly Comcast isn't that bad, but I deeply resent their ridiculous bandwidth cap when their service is so expensive.
Sure, if you're doing it all with a framework that handles all that for you. If you program a game in Unity, you're a "programmer that deals with simulated 3D spaces" and you don't need a lick of math.

I think plenty of programmers go the route of using a tool that does everything for them, to slowly learning the underlying nuts and bolts (math, etc) that allow them to modify the framework itself.

> Viewers on 1 Mbps or 1 Gbps are equally outliers. Both are too weird to cater to, less than optimal, unpredictable, difficult to advertise-to viewers.

Viewers on 1Gbps give off two important signals to advertisers.

1) Probably living near a city to get fiber coverage, which these days is usually a signal of wealth

2) Can afford a fiber internet monthly subscription, also usually not cheap.

This is most likely somebody that advertisers are very interested in getting their ads in front of!

Atheism is not a strong stance. I think maybe you think atheists believe with certainty there is no god. Some surely do, but most merely believe there's no evidence and it's therefore super-unlikely.

These aren’t ads in that they directly profit Google’s baseline just by displaying them. Google profits from increased ad-spend on search result sites that those things link to. If however you think every product mention is an ad, of course these are ads.

Either way, these things shouldn’t happen. Browsers should enable everyone to use the web.

You link against QtQuick to get the qml/js environment to run your qml apps. There is some performance overhead vs straight c++ code, but its negligible even on embedded systems.
There are two major credit card networks and essentially 0 new entrants in that space. Your "various credit/debit cards" are most likely with the same two networks, linked to different bank accounts, just as they could be with Alipay. They just have different branding.

Two is a lot more than one, for competition purposes, but it's hardly a wide open market where "anyone can compete", and it's the same as the number of major consumer payment networks in China (Alipay and Wechat pay).
My grandfather was a preacher and a millennialist, which means he thought the world would end soon. He based this out of his intimate knowledge of the Bible, spanning over 60 years of study. He was also a missionary who starting churches and had a radio show.

Surely that fulfills both contribution and prediction.

I therefore disagree with your characterization.

Now, he appears to have been wrong, but just like preachers may be wrong, critics may also be right even without contribution.

While not denying that at all, I'm always surprised when I see comments like these. It's like America has wiped away its involvement in Iraq from its collective memory. There was no disastrous invasion (based on a lie) that killed hundreds of thousands and plunged a region into decades-long strife, no war crimes, nothing.

Does the average America millennial today even know about, say, Abu Gharib?
Yes, this is exactly that. I've been using that openwrt distribution to do just that for a year and it's been working out really great. The nice thing about the approach is that you get a boost in both bandwidth and reliability as there is always a link available for your packets.

The drawback is increased latency (about 60ms instead of 40 on each individual links) but openmptcprouter provides a nice tool to easily exclude specific services or devices from using the tunnel. My gaming packets and netflix are both setup to keep using the otherwise adsl link. (Netflix override is because their stupid geo check think my vps is a vpn endpoint used to mask my location).

As for "a typo in terraform would be very hard to detect" - perhaps, yes, assuming it didn't fail outright.
To mitigate that I'd expect anyone deploying this for real to protect anything valuable would ensure unit tests were written for the Javascript and to have code reviews of any security-sensitive code like this.
