I can of course only offer anecdata, but my SO's asthma disappears during spring/summer, to return when the cold sets in. Gas usage inside the house is constant, since the central heating boiler is outside. Now, it might not be temperature or humidity, but it isn't the result of burning more gas.
Well, he said 1990... there were no websites in 1990. I definitely agree with OP that the stuff that we do on the web today would have been impossible even in 1995 when the web was at least available, but that's because browsers were limited, not because programming was limited. In terms of programming, nearly everything that is done today could be programmed back then using the tools available, we're just dealing with larger volumes and higher latencies today.
I imagine Pijul could do this quite naturally, as it describes everything as causal chains/DAGs (as I understand it). E.g. You could publish this[1] patch alongside all of its dependencies, and the UI could gate it behind it's dependencies.

This article highlights Stencil's performance, which is great.

As a dev, I think Stencil's superpower is that it can future proof your components. You can write a Stencil component and you can later use it in Angular or Vue or React or Elm or whatever. Or maybe even no framework at all -- just a templated server generated page with some Stencil components.

That's pretty nice for a team that's transitioning between one framework and another or uses two different frameworks on two different sites but would like to share components between the two.

Unrelated to the article, but I'm surprised how many new gas stoves do not have a flame interlock on the burner valve. I have a nearly new Samsung gas range, and if I twist the valve just a bit too far past the igniter stage, it will happily pump propane into my home until my 500 gallon tank runs empty.
Lets say something like define your conf/models/etc with cue and then generate a server in python.
Stencil is the best way to write Web Components if not a better React. If you like you can also write entire apps and Ionic library is perfect component library for it. It is fun to use and also uses TypeScript and it's simple and easy to understand.

Mitigate Connection Leaks in Production
Well, as much I have seen code reviews in my life (ignoring a few people that have OCD), I have noticed that the trend is to:

- add whatever comment that comes to your mind and you know wont be argued about (like using spaces instead of tabs) to have your persona look better on management statistics

- not deal with actually understanding the code but rather argue about syntax (dont malloc, use vector.reserve(),...)

- dont press accept until few lines are exchanged... again, boosting the statistics instead of giving something meaningful

- ... whatever boosts the reviewer visibility, even going ballistic on irrelevant parts of code (while no one reviews 3rd party dependencies where most of the evil is)

My proposal for code quality is different. Put together a team that communicates (a rare skill nowdays) and LET THEM communicate, offer them free beer afterwork, whatever interests them. Dont use enforced meetings like scrum etc., they just show that you have failed putting together a functional team. Make developers friends instead of rivals. Then avoid JIRA overhead, avoid management visibility,... just listen what people are saying (and preferably become their friend too), surpres any outside world influeces from your team and fire anyone trying to ladder over anyone else. Then you wont need code reviews. And you will always have a long list of improvements at any moment. Just send an email and ask.

Be capable of coding. Be really good at coding. Everyone will follow you after "shit hit the fan" and team had to work over weekend and you have stayed with them and help them fix the bugs, analyze the code. DONT be a manager, be helpful part of the team (if this would be industry standard we can just fire 99.999% of managers).

The economic disadvantage of slavery is the same one as that of communism -- people don't work as hard or as smart when they don't receive the fruits of their labor.

So now someone has a factory. They could, in theory, buy slaves and try to get them to work in the factory. But you would run away or, if you stayed, have no desire to work hard because you're not getting paid.

Or, the factory could "buy" slaves and offer them a buy-out mechanism. The factory pays $500, but after you make 1000 widgets, you get your freedom. The factory earns $800 from 1000 widgets, so that's a profitable deal for them. The former slave gets out of slavery as soon as they make 1000 widgets, so they have the incentive to make widgets. Try to get someone to make widgets as a slave without any reward and they only make 500 widgets, and then the factory would have to pay $500 to get $400. So the factory that ultimately frees the slaves out-competes the one that doesn't, and the slaves get freed.

Perhaps you're talking about the east or south bay, but SF proper has awful weather. Moved there from NYC expecting the climate you describe only to find rugged and overcast weather year around. Moved to Los Angeles after a year and can say with 100% conviction that the weather here is categorically better.
I think California has created this myth that constant sunshine = perfect weather. I personally like things like summer thunderstorms, snowy winters, mild cloudy days, and rain. It's definitely not bad weather, but the lack of variety and endless dry smoggy summer months can get pretty old.

text-red-500 isn't the same as color=red, and you can override which shade of red that is (or make it green/brown/whatever...tho that would be silly). but you can also define brand-centric names for stuff and they apply to anywhere you'd be able to use a color (text, border, shadow, etc). there's also the notion of having a design system, rather than a prescriptive framework...tailwind comes with some sensible defaults on these things, but it's built in a way that you can override it all to suite your org's look and feel.

with that said, it's an internal tool - who give a hoot?
It may have electrical benefits too - the capacitance of the line will likely be lower, and possibly the drive-strength might be lower. Both of those might figure into the power management of the chip...

Not being tied to the office fundamentally changes the calculus of choosing where to live. There just aren’t good reasons to live here anymore for so many of us.

Even if you enjoy the area, chances are you can get a better deal by moving just a bit further away. Actually, I can pay the 2 months rent in termination fees and move almost literally anywhere else in the state and still come out ahead financially. Since commute time is not a factor, many options have become viable.

I don't care for a discussion in which we have different standpoints on the principle by which laws should be created, and being a 'degenerate' is sufficient to feel the force of the law. Community decency laws do not work fine for me, nor for many creative people. Be thankful your hobbies aren't judged pathetic and awful.

It's a matter of opinion I suppose but in my view 'locked down' is not the same as not providing driver support. The former implies actively preventing people from running other OSs on the hardware - which they could have done but chose not too.
If it's raining, then obviously it's not very cold outside. Unless you're in the habit of cranking your furnace up to tropical temperatures I guess. For me, I keep the temperature above freezing inside but otherwise? I put on a sweater and open the window. It's cheaper, refreshing, and better for the environment. Right now it's 8 C outside; with the window open and a sweater on, I'm as comfy as a clam.
This kind of condescension isn't helpful. People understand when an app or a site is slow, or doesn't work, compared to when it works well and quickly.

It seems there are three separate issues:

1. NO2 produced by gas appliances
2. Various pollutants produced during cooking
3. Poor venting

The article mostly pushes for legislative solutions to 1, namely banning new gas stoves and incentivizing electric stoves.

I wonder if improving ventilation and filtering might actually be a more effective solution, as it has the potential to address all three issues.

ARM chips are also commodities nowadays. I lost count of how many companies make them. Yet Apple chose to make their own.

Charging circuitry chips are also commodities and Apple bought the division of Dialog semiconductors making such chips to have in house knowledge.

Now Apple bought the modem division of Intel so we're gonna see GSM modems from them in the future.

> All gas stoves should be below a hood with a ducted outside vent, the more powerful the better.

To my understanding, installing a very powerful stove hood in a tightly sealed house without proper consideration for a make-up air intake can cause problems (i.e. backdrafts in the exhausts for gas fired water heaters), especially in concert with other things venting outside like a clothes dryer. It's very possible to have it done right, but a pretty bad situation if done wrong.

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

The big advantage here is the ability to pull all of this functionality onto smaller and more highly integrated SoCs and packages. This is the antithesis of modular.

If you are looking for similar performance, the best you can hope for is a more accessible competitor. Someone like Nvidia or Qualcomm releasing a SoC with comparable features.

The big problem there is Qualcomm and Nvidia both have closed drivers so they are only marginally better than Apple. Since Qualcomm does such a lousy job supporting older CPUs, arguably worse (what's the value of a CPU with only 3 years of support?).
This is a big part of why I've started pushing for aggressive autoformatting and linting. The automated tools and checks are sometimes annoying, but automating away checks for the low-value stuff like this helps encourage the human reviewers to review for actual bugs and design problems rather than just taking potshots at the easy stuff.

A guide to customising the Windows Terminal
Uhm, I am somewhat of a pyro.. I LOVE fires. I burn a crap-ton of wood... I have literally no allergies nor asthma, breathing problems - I have a gas stove and a gas heater in my house...

I will burn a bitch at any chance I get! I literally broke my brick hearth last week chopping wood.

I was one grounded for a week when my dad came home (general contractor) and I was staying home from school with the flu, fever, and I was pumping wood into that wood-burning stove like I was trying to drive a train... it was like 110 degrees in the house.... my dad was furious,

Now, I have an endless supply of wood and a really nice fireplace - ive been going NUTs burning everything I can!
Furnaces dry out the air. Human activity can contribute moisture to the air. But the net effect is usually to leave the interior air dryer than the exterior air. Depending greatly on your lavatory ventilation.

Where I live, allowing outside air in greatly increases the inside humidity. And I would guess this is true for most people given the widespread complaints of dry winter skin and bloody noses. Which is the product of increased furnace operation.

>For some reason HN has this bizarre view of the world where it's full of pyschopaths out there to exploit developers.

Yea, I've noticed that too. I attribute it to most devs are not assertive, then add in the fetishization of anxiety, victim of micro aggressions and regular social awkwardness, they literally lack the ability to fight out of a wet paper bag of basic work dynamics. A majority dont know that you negotiate your salary when you get a job offer, you dont accept the first, obvious low ball offer. If your boss tells you to do something outside of your written job responsibilities, you have every right to say no. Same with if you say yes, you can negotiate for extra compensation. Plus, not everything glitters is gold. Its amazing when you can get if you negotiate with non-monetary requests. In the US we have laws to protect employees that are rather extensive even though the media likes telling us we are all slaves. No, you're just uneducated in your rights and legal mechanisms along with generally being an overall coward to stand up to someone. Like, it's one thing to be a coward to someone with a gun to your head. It's a whole other level when you're scared of someone with zero malicious, then in turn victimize yourself in the process.

And yet, The System seems to reliably produce this outcome in the USA to a much larger degree than elsewhere.

The full spectrum of causation is often (strongly) asserted to be very specific things, but rarely does one encounter any person or organization asserting that the problem is complex and not fully understood. It does not seem unreasonable at all to me that some wrongdoing may indeed be happening here and there.

That said, the highly inconsistent (other than confidence levels of assertions) approach to conspiracy theories is indeed wonderfully ironic.

Today is a good example of this...one one hand we have a thread about the abstract notion of CIA deception:

Its only anecdotal evidence, but this would support your idea.

I used to work for a mom & pop company. The owner was really wealthy. He would only play once the pot got to an insane amount (I think it was over $5 or $10 million) and then on his way into the office, would stop at 5-8 places, buying anywhere from $1-$3K in tickets a shot.

I still vividly remember huge stacks of lottery tickets sitting on his huge desk in his office.

He never did win the big pots, but did win a $1K or $2k amounts by matching a few of the numbers. But very clearly, he spent WAY more then he ever won.
