But 'vector' sounds fine and cyber. Or 'scalar'.

They could at least go with 'LMNT' (leet manager's new tool) and make the logo a cyber ambigram, like this: ` |_|\|\|¯| `.

As you can see, I do sympathize with their struggles XD
I like looking through documentation, but between knowing how to read documentation and knowing how to make sense of code, the later is more important, because the code is always there [1], and documentation is often missing, outdated, inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading.

When you have documentation you can trust to be accurate, complete, and up to date, it can be very helpful to use it though.

[1] unless you're building on top of binary only software, and you're not comfortable with reverse engineering
No doubt the Mozilla-based Netscape was ultimately a better browser, but's hard to think there wasn't a path to a better browser though incremental updates that wouldn't have taken 3 years of stagnation.
Great I’ll take the work life balance over an imaginary bonus then. And if you can’t keep up in compensation then I’ll look for another job
Part of what the world needs is not just the "app", but an app that's Open Source MIT License, so everyone has complete freedom, rather than the original authors being able to dictate certain terms going forward, and maintain control.

I've done 90% of the difficult coding in https://quanta.wiki, which is MIT License. I just need to add the P2P part. Maybe I'm sounding like Ali G. when he invented the "flying skateboard" and had everything solved except for the "physics". :)
> Should you buy one of Apple’s M1 devices? Probably not - wait 6 months for the next round of hardware, and buy then. Most of the software ecosystem quirks will be worked out by then, and just about everything will work. For now, there are enough weird little broken corner cases that I’d suggest holding off unless you’re OK with that and want legitimately insane battery life and performance.

Wise words.
In my experience, most of them don't. I would be surprised if even 10% of web devs do real performance testing on other hardware (i.e. with actual measurements).

Example: Why is the Google Cloud UI so slow? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25357409

It's not limited to Google either. Try ordering food on a web app on your phone, etc.

For example I just loaded doordash.com in Chrome's mobile view, and it made 110 requests and consists of 7.7 MB of resources. It took 1.12 secs to load on a core i7 desktop connected to a wired network. How long do you think it will take on a phone with a slower CPU over a wireless network? For a web page that shows pictures of food.

FWIW I worked at Google for over a decade, and this was a problem that got worse over the entire decade. People talked about making the network slow to fix this systemic problem, but it never happened (at least while I was there). You also have to test on different networks, although admittedly the M1 doesn't make your network faster so that problem won't be exacerbated.

I still stand by the original statement; the M1 will make the web slower, assuming it's adopted by a bigger fraction of web devs than consumers (which seems very likely).

Without sharp corners. You will cut the polymerization layer otherwise, if not careful.

> Don't cook on cold cast iron.

You literally can't cook on cold metal. :)

Dancing water is too hot for some things, IMHO, like eggs. Once it is that hot I'm past the point of good eggs.

I put the oil in and bring it up slowly until the oil runs faster than cold oil, but way, way, way before the smoke point. I like my eggs to have zero brown crisp, so I use low temps and a good olive oil. Also have to use fresh eggs so that the white doesn't spread more the 4-5". On a good day with good eggs if I'm paying attention, I get a perfecty-set white with no brown crisp, and a slow-run yolk with no cooked bits, and after one quick flip to the top to sear the yolk. Perfection.
Well, it does provide a neat explanation for the Terminator franchise: the in-movie Skynet is an advanced version of this Skynet, which decided to conquer humanity because it was trained on data from all the fascists that are bound to flood Skynet with their rhetoric.

> Many European countries have generous welfare programs, and have open borders with other EU countries with far less generous ones. It works.

Actually it has caused a lot of resentment in the richer countries and it was one of the contributing factors to Brexit, as well as the rise of new far right parties in France and Germany.

It's also notable how Europeans reacted to non-European migrants who attempt to enter the EU while fleeing the war in Syria.

I wouldn't say the EU has migration very well figured out.

Check out "Introductory Microcontroller Programming" by Peter Alley (to be clear, not me.) for Wocester Polytech; I came across this by accident the other day -

[pdf] https://web.wpi.edu/Pubs/ETD/Available/etd-042811-095908/unr...

Over the period of being the TA for these courses multiple times, I learned a great deal, but also noticed several recurring issues the students seemed to face. In addition to furthering my own knowledge on the care and feeding of microcontrollers, this thesis is an attempt to provide students with a resource to overcome some of their difficulties, to provide a better understanding of the hardware level operation of a microcontroller, and as instruction into improving their knowledge and code.

edit: in addition, for really low level hardware, check out Ben Eater's series on YouTube building a breadboard 6502
I think it's fair to equate the actions of any and all groups, those actions covering murder and sysmetiatic intimidation through violence at least. You don't get to dismiss violence simply because you have sympathies with a particular cause.

I condemn all extremist violence and rehtoric. I have no sympathies with supporters of Trump, let alone the subset of his base living inside a Q fantasy. However, I feel I'm going insane seeing the differing standards applied to groups based on political party association.

But have at it, you deserve everything you get. Continue to call your opponents Hitler and Nazis while condeming dark and inciting language. Continue to support domestic terrorism from some groups while wretching at the sight of it from others. It's your society, destroy it in whichever fashion you feel gratifying in the moment. Dehumanise at will.

The best educated voter -- any voter in fact -- can also run for office and transform the party.

I dislike the rhetoric you're using that implies the parties are outside and beyond the reach of "normal" citizens. Of course they are institutions with substantial inertia and aims of their own. But as the elections of people as diverse as Cori Bush and Madison Cawthorne and Marjorie Taylor Greene show, it is certainly still possible to make your way from citizen to elected official.
Isn't that because PornHub didn't verify anything and was filled with content that exploited people? In the end, the issue seems to be PornHub rather than the card networks.
The article also says the following.

Credit card giants Visa, Mastercard and Discover have blocked all payments to Pornhub, after the adult site was accused of being "infested" with child abuse and rape-related videos.

So if PH solves that problem I don't see why they couldn't be back in business.
The quote is much older than the testements.
If you mean the one that's used on your phone to access everything, yes, although it doesn't bypass the email alert (the linked clickbait goes into how they have to click "allow device" on their already-signed-in phone). When you log into either the Google.com website or into an Android device your token needs permission to do everything you'd expect to do as a user - gmail, drive, etc. This attack is basically a browser MITM which captures that token and (theoretically) ships it off to a server for malicious usage/storage.

Or, if you mean "can Google employees read my email", then they can since almost no Google service is end-to-end encrypted (although you can e2ee Chrome sync[0]). Gmail, Drive, and Docs are completely unencrypted unless you use encryption on top of it (like with rclone[1] or cryptomator[2]).

Except the M1 Macs with Big Sur ship with Rosetta2, which mitigates a _lot_ of the issues associated with the architectural transition. Most consumers will not notice a difference.

You can't just ignore that and then make the disingenuous claim that it's anything like the Windows ARM situation, especially given the fact that Apple is throwing their entire weight behind the transition which will (eventually) result in most major applications being natively compatible. I'd be curious if anyone thinks that this transition is going to fail somehow
I am no Apple fanatic. I'm a die-hard Linux user and open source proponent. I wouldn't touch the M1 with a thirty-nine and a half foot pole.

But with all that said... I kind of like articles like these. I enjoy seeing people happy with good tech because I like good tech. It pleases me that there are people getting this much enjoyment out of innovative and (I'll admit it) quite impressive hardware. So rock on, Apple fans. But when there's a Linux computer that is even a bit better, I hope you can tolerate me shouting from the rooftops, because you bet I will be!

Reminds me of a recent change in the privacy policy of my bank, it spends pages and pages talking about "getting my consent to use my private information" in all sorts of contexts strongly implying they will ask me before selling off my information, then later, in a different part it defines my "usage of the service" as consent for them to use said info.
> You really shouldn't buy a special oil just [for] seasoning your cast iron and carbon steel. It's not necessary. Pick an oil with a high smoke point, a neutral taste, and plenty of easy availability. That's often peanut. Avocado is great if you're fancy.
Keep a squirt bottle of oil on hand and make sure you're using enough.

> I had friends dedicate years to flax seed oil. They're not happy about it, as they've got flaking to deal with.

I happen to have bought some flax oil specifically for seasoning my cast iron - you’re saying it’s contraindicated though? (So “you don’t need special oil, but _especially_ not these” (leaving only peanut and avocado))?

For the amount of times the word “science” is dropped there’s still a good amount of myth and legend associated with owning cast iron. Short of having my own double blind statically significant study and perhaps a microscope to observe the polymerization effects, I’m still flopping back/forth a bit about what “the best” or at least not leaving a simple improvement on the table, is. What a journey.

Still worth the trouble, though. Cooking is fun, and cast iron is a good cooking tool.
they seem good and stuff but Mac OS and the Mac ecosystem are awful
In a perfect world, you'd have something like Patreon or OnlyFans that runs like a utility out of a non profit org (such that Signal, Let's Encrypt, Wikipedia, and similar platforms operate as 501(c)(3) non profits). Removing the profit motive removes a lot of room for bad behavior on the part of the platform.

Verify the creator, provide a way to get payments to them without you acting as the intermediary, charge reasonable fees for your tech stack to organize and distribute digital content, and keep a paper trail when regulators, legislators, and law enforcement knock.

I want to really stress as a financial infra and payments system armchair enthusiast and scholar that crypto payments don't fix this. The law just comes for you if you try to subvert the law with crypto. You have to drive home the point (lobbying, marketing) that consenting adults adhering to the law should not be in fear when exchanging value in a transactional business and should not have their payments intercepted.
You don't want bits of food stuck to the pan. Bits of food still stuck to the pan go bad. The oil that sticks as part of seasoning has much smaller molecules as it polymerizes, so you don't have bits of stuff that goes bad. If it comes up with soap, it's not bonded to the pan.

I agree with you that voting needs to be as accessible as possible, as long as we have steps in place to ensure that only eligible voters are voting, and that they are only able to do so once. I don’t know how you do that with the hard push against voter ID laws, however.

With regard to 2020, the changes to the laws that occurred could have been entirely well-intentioned. They probably were. But those changes have led to the current crisis of confidence in the election results, and rightly so.

Sorry, you're right I went on a bit of a tangent there.

I guess the point I was making was that this violent language wouldn't be spreading on Parler if Trump hadn't have abused his Twitter account to drum up this kind of violent extremism with self-serving lies about a free and fair election.

Those hundreds of thousands of users flocked to Parler as a result of Twitter cracking down on this same type of violent speech. So is it really a surprise that AWS cracked down on them too for the same reasons? And Google? And Apple? And Shopify? And others? If you're repeatedly running into bans and suspensions, it could be a multi-company conspiracy to silence you, or it could just be you. I guess that's the debate.

The 1st amendment has limits like yelling "Fire!" in a crowded theater or coordinating to murder the VP of the US.

This isn't the same free speech debate as a professor refusing to use gender-neutral pronouns or someone publishing racist research or someone touting conspiracy theories or someone blowing off steam. This is about a small number of users using a platform to illegally threaten and coordinate violence on others in very explicit and direct terms and that platform standing by their right to do so. The only thing stopping them from following through is their low numbers.

What do we want 2 years from now? Parler letting thousands of people threaten to murder Biden, Pelosi, AOC, Romney or every elected official that doesn't subscribe to their version of reality? No way. History tells us this doesn't end well. "Fall in line or we'll shun you" politics is abhorrent. "Fall in line or we'll harm you" politics is the absolute bottom of group behavior. We have laws against violent speech and conspiracy to commit murder for very valid reasons.

If it’s 20 pages of useful information and insight that saves someone time, yes. Assuming that’s the case, s/he should charge more.
I hear what you're saying and I don't disagree that both "sides" are susceptible to group think and a mob mentality. I consider myself fairly moderate which is why I include examples of extreme views from the left (anti-vaccination theories, GMO conspiracies, 9/11 “truthers”) in my analysis, as well. I’m not a fan of misinformation no matter what the source is and do my best to try to “lead” people away from it.

That being said, what do we do in this situation (which is a common one I see in these kinds of debates)?:

- Group A claims X.

- Person N asks Group A to provide evidence for their claim X.

- Group A cannot provide said evidence, or the evidence provided is unreliable/cannot be validated.

- Person N asks for additional evidence that the claim X made by Group A is true.

- Group A insists they are right and refuses to provide any additional evidence for claim X.

- Person N chooses to not believe Group A’s claim X due to a lack of evidence.

What’s the next step? Assuming good faith on the sides of both parties, how do you reach some sort of agreement or conclusion?

And what do we do when claim X made by Group A is one that leads to violence or other societal harms (such as an increase in death and suffering due to the spread of disease in the case of anti-vaccination theories)?

I don’t have a good answer, here. I desperately want to have rational and productive conversations with people with whom I disagree. But how do you avoid a deadlock situation like the above?
I'd argue all of that diving into technical details didn't end up mattering that much, either in Vieth itself or especially after Rucho v. Common Cause.

Got it. But these corporation have alot of influence in our political system. If things will go on like this we might end choosing the govt. (or the political system) they want. Bcz they might filter the other feeds which are impacting them somehow.
One of the performers quoted summed it up well in the article:

> "The real target of these groups is not to help victims or fight illegal content on the internet, but to ban all forms of adult material."

A few years ago I was doing some research to figure out how I felt about SESTA/FOSTA, and one of the things I quickly came to realize is that a lot of groups and politicians who are ostensibly anti-trafficking are actually anti-porn, and use the boogieman of trafficking to build a broader coalition than they could on a purely anti-porn agenda.
That last sentence doesn't sound credible. Who's been convicted of this? Who's trials are ongoing?

Blinding and maiming anyone that gets in their way sounds like they've blinded or maimed maybe 30k people in Portland by now?
> You want oil soaked into the metal.

Is there solid evidence that this is actually possible, as opposed to creating a layer on top of it? The only people I've ever heard suggest that it's possible were talking about cast iron pans, and it's always struck me as the sort of thing that would have major implications for a lot of other fields.

I tried some web searches before posting this, still not finding anything suggesting it's possible other than cast iron pan aficionados.
Twitter has grown to such a level as mean of communication for everyone, especially politicians and governments all over the world because it has been quite neutral.

If it continues to move into editorialising and deciding what can be written and what cannot, and by whom, (beyond compliance with local laws, that is) this may be a watershed moment.
I recently purchased PinePhone.

It is not consumer phone, it's in development stage - so for many people I think it would be too rough.

But for me it's brilliant. I am only making calls, texts and occasionally taking a photo. I don't need any productivity software (not even email). I am experimenting with "de-smartphoning" myself - I found myself constantly distracted even by presence of my phone. And now I'm calm :)
If you want the best Web App in the world take my codebase (quanta.wiki) and built on top of it. The whole thing is a simple tree structure, on MongoDB, using a 'path-based' tree so you don't even have to learn a specific relational database structuring, and you can put something else on the back end to replace MongoDB. If you like Java+TypeScript+React then I've given you a 250,000 loc head start.

Exactly. The C++ standard (https://isocpp.org/std/the-standard) is the specification that describes what a compiler must do to implement a particular "version" of C++ (for example, C++ 20).

Just as there is a C++ standard and multiple C++ compilers that implement the standard, there should be a Rust standard and multiple implementations.

This is the way that mature languages work.
Well, we just need to admit that running applications if ack all know risks are complex.
If we blissfully ignore risks like lamp or lemp stack its much more easier.
Main question do we need to take in account most of risks, running within small scale.
I think it makes sense to look at different kinds of programming.

for example, system programming would probably still exists and would be some next generation c or rust...

CRUD programming will probably be obsolete, replaced by no-code tools.

but as for all other software... If nothing changed much in 40 years, then I don't see what can change there...

What do you think is an alternative to text or visual programming? Something akin to "Minority report" ui? )
So I was going to reply to the parent but after thinking a little more I think I have a better good faith interpretation. I think they used "coercion" instead of "persuasion" because it is a stronger word (implying forcing or threatening). So if we read their comment that way I don't think they disagree with you or would be against even encouraging things like planed births and making birth control widely available.
As all the well deserved criticism about the lack of support for alternative operating systems on M1 becomes louder, articles like these suggest Apple's answer - you want to run any other OS on it, virtualisation is our answer. (There's already another article on M1 here praising how well virtualised Windows runs on it).
The main thing I’ve learned that most advice about seasoning pans doesn’t tell you is that how you use the pan to cook matters more than how well seasoned it is. Cast iron is really forgiving of seasoning, you don’t need the perfect job to cook with it.

However, cast iron will never be as non-stick as a good non-stick pan, and if you treat it as one, you’re going to have a bad time.

Put bacon in a dry, hot pan, and it’ll leave crispy fond stuck to the pan. (Nothing you do will ever create fond in a non-stick pan.) Cook bacon starting with a cold pan, and enough fat will render by the time it heats to keep it from sticking.

Eggs will stick to cold, dry cast iron. Fry eggs in a moderately hot pan with plenty of grease. I had the devil of a time with fried eggs until I realized I wasn’t letting the pan heat enough. Also, it’s very easy to burn butter in a cast iron pan; use a more forgiving fat like bacon grease or a neutral oil.

Cast iron behaves differently than non-stick or stainless steel. Different heat density, different emissivity. Just like any other cookware, you need to learn how to work with it; it’s not just a matter of getting the magical perfect seasoning and pretending it’s Teflon.
