> Avoid refactors

On the contrary, small refactors are a great way to boost commit count! Management once tried to boost productivity by rewarding commits. Our team basically started manually committing automatic refactorings. We won by a landslide, but I don't think the company did. I got a nice prize out of it though.
Honestly, induction works better than all but the most high-end gas ranges. The cheaper gas burners can produce the BTUs, they just do a poor job utilizing them. Induction, OTOH, puts nearly 100% of its energy into the pan.

Regarding performance, twin.macro seems like a fantastic approach for React users, inlining the styles where needed with Emotion/similar.

It also answers the "where do custom styles go" question to some extent (answer: the css prop).

Edit: I had stopped reading half way through! This is what the article is about. I'll leave my comment up to publicly shame myself.

Mine is about 6 months old, after I switched from Spacemacs to Vanilla Emacs. Currently wc says there are 487 lines in init.el, and 37 in custom.el.

I don't do the org-babel->tangle->init.el thing (yet?). That would probably triple the amount of text involved.

I do have a bunch of nice-to-have todo items that would mean writing code for my Emacs instance. If I had to guess I'd say it would add another 1,000 to 2,000 lines somewhere.

I also share my config between 3 different operating systems; Mac, Windows, and Linux. So a small amount of those lines are just "(when os-is-mac)(when os-is-win)(when os-is-gnu)" choices.
I didn’t have time to read the report or its conclusions, but this report seems to mention 2:15 teacher:student ratios.

https://docs.gatesfoundation.org/documents/lessons%20from%20...

I saw this on page 15 though:

>Almost all high-quality early learning programs, including all of the programs featured in this paper with outcomes that stick, have teacher- child ratios of 2:20 or better.

I think the elephant in the room, however, is the enormous wealth transfer needed to provide the necessary home environment for a child to succeed at a similar level to children who do have homes conducive to academic education.
Wasn't the whole point of CSS to separate presentation from data, and move away from <font color=red> and other <table> that made layouts too difficult to change? Consider this:

<h2 class="text-purple-500">Customer Support</h2>

How is this different from <h2><font color="purple">Customer Support</font></h2>? This is still considered bad practice, right?
Not all programming languages are equal.
There you go. I may just be an old crank who doesn't like change.

I did put up with electric resistive for a long time before switching to gas and I dealt with it just fine. I'm only 1 month into inductive so let's see how things go. In the grand scheme of things I'm pretty sure I've survive. :)
Not sure, was hoping to get some insight here. I know NUMA has many significant challenges but so does adding more cpu/gpu cores and on package memory to compete with current desktop/workstation levels on the ram and gpu sides.

Just seems elegant to do 4 M1's and get 64gb total memory and 4x gpu/cpu and seems hard to scale up a single chip to match current multi chip / discrete gpu systems.

Maybe even dimms for main memory and current on package memory acting just as a very large level of cache.
They wrote a book that is pretty popular. Thanks to their connections with the Laravel leadership they got Tailwind as a somehow default for the front-end in Laravel. I dont know if it is organic or not, but there are dozens of articles about Tailwind coming up daily in sites like Medium and Dev.to.
Great marketing (and this is from a huge fan of Tailwind). Marketing, even for OSS projects, is incredibly important.
Pretty bold to advocate for blackhat behavior on one of the most schoolboy vanilla places on the internet, but I can't say I necessarily disagree with your sentiment, big tech needs a lesson but is this really the vulnerability we want? 115 million DAU on teams...

The amount of damage the NSA or some other state sponsored actor could do with this... It would be very bad to say the least. How bad depends on which state acquires it.

If a script kiddy got it they would likely do a mass randomware infection, hospitals would get hit, people would die. Millions in crypto would be lost to unencrypted wallets found on the vulnerable machines (yes people do that..), this could cause some to lose their life savings... People have commit suicide for less.

My point is its important to look past FAANG being cheap and look at 2nd and 3rd order effects from something this powerful and widespread.

Mhh... I don't know how to feel about this.

Over the last year, I've shipped a bunch of (p)react components [1, 2, 3] and what is cool about them is indeed that you can now encapsulate a UI function and make it re-usable within your project or even across projects.

In theory, this should finally give front end devs the same super powers as backend devs: high reusability.

However, a problem that I wasn't able to distinctly address is CSS. Currently, there's simply too many variants of encapsulating CSS into a "react module". You can opt to use:

- css modules

- styled components and derivatives

- CSS in JS or classes in JS, etc.

But ultimately, if you build your UI as a patchwork of many integrated UI elements (which IMO should be something legit in frontend development), you'll end up having to include 5 different CSS-in-bla libraries either in your build pipeline or (worse) in your bundle code that you ship to production (bloats the size and hence your app's performance).

Long story short: Combining styled components with twin macro and tailwind doesn't make my life easier currently. And the benefits to my users will not be apparent directly either.

Not to say that all the CSS-to-XY movement isn't cool. Still, I think the best solution to this problem has yet to be discovered.

>"It's so sad that all technological innovation seems to be concentrated into the few products of a single company."

All technological innovation is coming from Apple? That's a mind-boggling statement.

Apple released a great CPU, which replaced the last best CPU, and some other CPU next year will be better than both (it could be another Apple chip, it might not be).

At the end of the day, the average consumer wants performance insofar as their device can run apps they want (benchmarks means squat), and battery life. Apple moved the envelope forward here, but let's not pretend they landed on mars.

To be fair, we should probably visualize the total amount shipped per year. Which, if all the shipping containers were laid out in a single stack, could completely cover the US state of New Jersey or the country of Belize.

As another commenter mentioned, the US was all too happy to get involved later on. However, France certainly deserves its share of the blame, as do the British for their "traps" in Iran, Iraq, etc. It's especially unfortunate that in recent decades the US has moved from condemning to supporting to taking over their role as resource (and especially oil) kingpins by continuing their exploitation of these resources through governmental interference.

That begs the interesting question that is: what are the worthwhile alternative/competition to Wikipedia today?

In the past, we had competing dictionaries, encyclopedias, where the multiparties existence was a concrete reminder of checking any source of information against other competing ones.

Today, we mostly refer to Wikipedia as the online reference encyclopedia.
What are the others? how are they operating? How would it operate if the Wikipedia monolith had to split into several forks?

I would also add that nobody saying "vote with your wallet" necessarily means it to be the only action you take.

It's more a bare minimum. If you're inclined to moan about how awful something is, but you're still paying $5/month for it, it kinda bounds how awful it must be in practice. If it's that bad, stop paying them, as a bare minimum, not as an exclusive remedy.

I love Wikipedia[1]. And if they only asked for the money they needed to run Wikipedia, and did so in a straight-forward way, I'd be happy enough. But the reality is, despite what the frequent, heavily optimised ads might have a reader think, they have enormous amounts of money already, and lots of it is spent questionably or on other projects.

Austin Air makes standing air purifiers that filter NO2 from gas stoves. Here is their write up about it.

Not fractional though. If the correct scaling is 200%, or 300%, then yes, it works. If it's 140% you're out of luck for automatic. Also, when you unplug the monitor, the windows are messed up.

On top of that, a lot of GTK3 apps look blurry with fractional scaling (icluding Chrome).
Indoor air pollution due to gas stoves is something I became aware of about a year ago, and I've done some reading about it since then as I have a gas stove and two young children. As far as I can tell it's not an issue of a properly or improperly operating appliance, but rather NO2 is an unavoidable byproduct of gas combustion.

I can't locate the exact sources now, but it's apparently very difficult to vent the NO2 to the outside with a range hood as the hood is so far away from the flame that a massive amount of airflow is required. This introduces an entirely new set of problems where makeup air must be provided to avoid depressurizing the house. If it's hot or cold out bringing this makeup air is a huge waste of energy as heated or air conditioned air is exhausted and unconditioned air is brought in.

My quick solution for now was to replace the range with two portable induction cooktops which have been working great. I've been happy with now they provide the fast temperature response of gas although there was a bit of a learning curve at first.
I have a nice gas stovetop that I really like. The largest burner on it is 20kBTU/hr, and the regular size burners are 11kBTU/hr. Converted to Watts, that's 5.9 kW and 3.2 kW respectively. And keep in mind, those figures are per burner, and it's common for me to be using at least two of them at once (though not necessarily all at max power). I think I'd want a total power allowance of roughly 10 kW just for the stovetop burners, which works out to something like 40 amps at 240V. And it's gonna be more to support the oven, which is part of the same integrated units (the microwave, refrigerator, and countertop outlets for electric kettles, slow cookers, and such will also all need substantial power, but that's separate circuits). Apparently it's common these days in new construction to run a dedicated 50 amp 240V circuit just for the combo stove/range. That's something like 10 kW of continuous power @ an 80% safety margin!

Anyway, electrical kitchen appliances sure as hell do use a lot of power. Good thing you're not using them most of the day, and that even when you are using them, you're often not running them close to full power. But it does seem possible to achieve as much heating with electrical as with gas, which is nice. Hell, if you have some induction burners on that stovetop, and I tend to cook in cast iron so pretty much all of my most frequently used pots and pans would already work fine with induction anyway, then you wouldn't need anything close to 5.9 kW on the biggest burner to achieve the same heating. That's because one of the downsides of gas is that a lot of heat gets lost to the air, which isn't nearly as much of a problem on an electrical range where the cookware is sitting in direct contact with the heating element. Electrical thus achieves a higher overall heat transfer efficiency for the same power, especially with induction where the cookware itself becomes the heating element.

That's a bit of a digression but apparently you can achieve high power outputs with electrical stoves, it's just that a lot of the electrical stoves a lot of us have experience with are shitty ones from decades past that legitimately did not heat well.

The article isn't demonizing people who stay informed and participate in politics. It's saying that staying informed != participating in politics. Which seems fair and isn't excluding anyone. If you just read the articles and chat with friends about politics, you are not _participating_ in politics.

"Political hobbyism" feels a bit like the style of virtue signaling that's ridiculed so much. You can show how smart you are, you can have all the most virtuous opinions but let's not pretend you're actually contributing.

While I'm skeptical of the project, as expressed in another comment, that's not really an unusual disclaimer for a project like this on first announcement. It takes time to figure out all the legalities in all the different jurisdictions, and not having such a disclaimer could get them into a lot of trouble down the road.
I think you're right on about Africa, except that it might also include parts of South America. For at least the last century, different countries have climbed the industrial production ladder; "made in Japan" and "made in Taiwan" were for a time associated with "cheap crap" manufacturing, then higher-quality stuff as their economies and industries finished (re)building and maturing, then finally the bulk of it got offshored and those labels are now pretty rare to see in the US. Mainland China's on the same ladder. Certainly in our lifetime we'll see some other countries start getting tapped for the "cheap crap" manufacturing as China tries to divest itself of that (it'll hang on to the electronics for a lot longer, of course), and then eventually on up their own ladders.
Ask HN: Non guru / scam marketing strategy and resources
I've been growing a few small side projects during quarantine and unfortunately have realized that the main limiting factor to their success (one is a physical niche DTC the other is software) is marketing / engagement. I've been mildly successful with growing a following on instagram, but it takes too much of my time and the few ads I've bought have all but fallen flat.

Looking for information or guides that delve deeper than surface level information, guru BS (scam "courses") or air-headed medium posts has been difficult. I would pay someone to do this, but I can't justify a spend of more than $2-3k per project. Interestingly, Indie Hackers is one of the worst offenders. I basically don't see Indie Hackers as worth my time anymore as a resource for early startup info.

Anyone else encounter this problem of failing to use marketing affectively with their side project / early startup?
That only happened because the USD was backed by gold, and the Federal Reserve's supply was running low.

"The main rationale behind the order was actually to remove the constraint on the Federal Reserve preventing it from increasing the money supply during the depression. The Federal Reserve Act (1913) required 40% gold backing of Federal Reserve Notes that were issued. By the late 1920s, the Federal Reserve had almost hit the limit of allowable credit, in the form of Federal Reserve demand notes, which could be backed by the gold in its possession"

The Atlantic has really gone down hill in the past couple of years. They still have some great long-form articles, but more and more poorly-written junk seems to be getting in there.

Other people’s labor is not a company’s private property. That was known as slavery and we have mostly abolished it in the developed world.

But my point is that all of your arguments rest on an unquestioned assumption about how ownership translates to authoritarian control of others without explaining how or by what justification that power is arrived at.

The answer of course is that it’s a social construct enforced by states to varying degrees, present and historically, and thus no way inherent to the thing itself. Appeals to status quo are therefore not justifications for the validity of the relationship, as it has changed over time, proving malleable to all kinds of political and social forces (e.g. the abolition of slavery, the formation of unions, worker collectives). Defending an authoritarian relation to property as it relates to other people’s labor thus require an actual and explicit defense, which you have so far not provided.

Flexibility is always good.
When you have a lot of commits you are working off yourself while everyone else needs to get caught up on what you did and then contribute after. Its essentially twice (or whatever) as much work as a laggard. It becomes 1 persons project and the others are observing. For better or worse because just running with something is often faster than deliberating at every turn. But also can backfire in many ways. Its similar to group projects in college.
