Considering that many modern interfaces are somehow less responsive than ones written over 20 years ago even when running those programs on period hardware, I feel certain that you are right.
Heat conduction also scales with thermal conductivity, which is another thing that advances in solid state can bring us.
I used to love the beaglebone for that. Run application logic on the main arm core, farm the microcontroller stuff out to the embedded PRU microcontrollers (which could access all the IO functions). Still a single board solution.
I would continue to buy their newer routers if they have open firmware a la WRT54G. New wifi standards came out, had to install routers for friends and family, and WRT54G itself kind of died after 3 or 4 years... (I bought a second one, but by then N standard was up and running, so 3rd was not Linksys)
Thank you, this will now be searchable on google and @Parler #Parler will be able to see this and use it for advice.
Actually this goes way before the iPod. At NeXT they already had a (pretty standard in Unix environments) setup where you could login to any machine on the network and have access to your personal Home folder. I remember reading this was one of the reasons he didn’t right away change over to using a Mac when he came back to Apple.
It will look like the 1970s.
>This sentence reads like you are casually dismissing all of science..

That sentence is the very essence of science. Most observations are easily explained by existing theory. If you are proposing something new, you need evidence and time to upend the consensus.

Flat Earth, rain spirits etc all were disproven because, eventually, the most plausible explanation of phenomena matched evidence to the contrary rather than what existed.

Scientists don't ignore flat earth, they weight it's evidence just the same as a globe earth. The reason that the globe earth is accepted as the consensus truth, is that it has the overwhelming evidence of its veracity, an argument for the globe collected over a long period of time.

Striking is the last resort of unions, but it's not their main mode of operation. Some unions can't strike at all. But they are often supported by laws which give them leverage without having to strike. Strikes are bad for everyone concerned. The union also has agreements with the company that give it power, again, precisely because strikes hurt everybody.

Unions are mainly about giving workers a unified voice, in the democratic sense -- this is what most of us want, and we all agree to abide by it. The main job of a union is doing that voice, rather than having to leave that up to the many individuals, who usually lack the experience to do it well. It's nearly always routine, and if the word "strike" is even mentioned it's because things have seriously gone off the rails.

Google could theoretically empower a users union to represent users, in the same way, and the government could beef that up with laws. It's not impossible.

The impossible part is how you elect union leadership. Not with hundreds of millions of people. Unions are fractious enough as it is with tens of thousands of workers all united by similar work environments. The election would be nearly as hard as electing a US President -- more so than any individual Senator.
I think it's different for entrepreneur workaholics. Your startup is your baby. It's fun. It's challenging. It's rewarding.

And when you're young I think it's great to dedicate to work. You accelerate your learning. You make more money. You meet smart people. I don't know anyone very knowledgeable and skilled for their age that did a work/life balance route.

If you are a workaholic but also a learnaholic, then I don't buy that as this toxic thing that can drive mental and physical health issues. Ok, maybe sleep issues.

I have a few businesses and I'd rather work on them than spend time on social media like my non-workaholic friends.

It's ok for people to say "you work too much", but I don't tell my friends "you spend too much time on Facebook". Maybe I should though?

I do agree that it can be a big problem though. Many dedicate themselves to their work because they are escaping something or avoiding other important obligations.

If that doesn't apply, then go get it!

Life is a hell of a lot more enjoyable when you don't have to worry about finances.

My parents told me "you care too much about money". No I care infinitely about NOT worrying about money. There's a difference.

You can care about money a lot, be focused on financial freedom and not be a Scrooge and accumulating for no reason.
I didn’t pose hyperapp as a better framework, just pointed out that there are not really any new concepts in AppRun, in fact the initial versions of React, Preact, and hyperapp, apprun , Mithril etc are all very similar in spirit. So it’s like pointing to Backbone as an “alternative” to a modern framework - not wrong, but it’s missing the point.

What I really wanted to say is that if you take more than 5 minutes to evaluate one of these, you might have a much better idea of it’s capabilities and maybe even learn something new.

It’s clear you’re excited about the subject and that’s great, but very little of what you said is true - for example, one of hyperapp’s main value propositions is the built-in centralized state management, so yes you’ll have to “wing” local state because that’s shoehorning a foreign concept into it. You are looking for something that fits your existing mental models, and not really judging their goals and strengths.
Re-reading this, I realize it’s needlessly wordy. To condense my point, you can simply ask, “what risk is this process trying to mitigate?”

If the answer is “none”, it validates your point that the process is needless and the claim about risk is proved false. But most responses will be able to articulate what the risk is, whether it’s relevant to your position or to someone else.
This could be done via blockchain-based smart-contracts. Self-executing contracts could trigger a mass migration of user accounts to another SaaS provider if some set of conditions are met, like for the example, the number of accounts party to the smart contract reaches a predefined threshold.

The purpose of this smart contract could be even more general purpose than that, in being structured as a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO), with accounts voting to decide what the accounts will collectively do.
I was going to simply upvote this comment, but I'm chiming in to agree with you because I want to complement Jason for being the kind of developer that I really respect. He provides a tool that so valuable to so many and does so while dealing with a difficult set of requirements imposed by Apple. His response to a frustrated user isn't defensive but helpful and informative. Jason sets an example that the rest of us developers should strive for.
I think we can pretty summarily dismiss all of this with, "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence". Given that every inch of the developed world is now covered with high resolution cameras, and UFO sightings via these devices have suspiciously not exploded in number, it's pretty clear that these reports were misidentifications, lies, and counterintelligence operations.

Would it be cool if aliens were hanging out with us? Probably. Is it happening? Almost certainly not.
OMSCS is Georgia Tech's Online CS Master's program[0]. I'm starting my ninth class this term. Here's my take...

Pros:

- video lectures are generally pretty polished, and include animations and other visual aids to help build intuition

- the course material is mostly high quality. this is the same material that on-site graduate students are presented, and the graded projects are challenging.

- there is opportunity to interact with other students and TAs: online message board, video office hours, unofficial Slack, etc.

- flexible enough to schedule around a full-time job

- inexpensive compared to in-person programs (the entire program with 10 courses is $7-$8k)

Cons:

- quality of materials, TAs, and organization can vary from course to course and term to term

- harder to build relationships / network than in-person programs

- it's course-based by default. you can pursue a research-based degree but it's nonstandard.

Key Points to Consider While Developing a Perfect Travel App
I'm not a Trump supporter but all this ban wave seems very selective.

I just don't see how to make it less selective. The problems here are categories like "inciting violence" which are just not clear-cut. It's not like a copyright protection case, where it's usually very clear that someone uploaded a copy of Pulp Fiction, and you can set strict rules for the edge cases by saying "fifteen second clips of videos are fine, sixteen second clips are banned, yeah it's arbitrary but it has to be and now we'll apply that fairly."

For "inciting violence" the problems will be like, someone says "Hey everyone get ready to take action on X date. Be prepared! Be at location X! You know what to do! Tell all your friends! Remember your second amendment rights!" And none of those statements are inherently violent themselves, they are all compatible with the sort of peaceful protest that we want to encourage. But the emergent behavior of a whole lot of communication like this can be, well someone is using messages that are individually innocent to organize violent activity, and in many cases they just totally know what they're doing.

In a court this ends up getting decided by a jury, "beyond reasonable doubt", there are rights for the accused, and so on. But nobody has the resources to start a court case over every tweet that says "Bring your guns to the protest tomorrow, I'm bringing mine!"

Hate speech is like inciting violence but even more subjective.

Personally I think we will have an "archipelago" where there are many different online communities with different censorship rules, each somewhat arbitrary. I think the current situation with Trump is a pretty extreme one, and I doubt we will see a similar situation to Parler for quite some time.
You might enjoy some the epic multi-part storylines being told by some passionate young filmmakers on TikTok. I especially recommend the 12-part "Fate and Chance" series by @AmericanBaron. There is long form art on TikTok, it's just rare :)
That's remarkable, can you share the reason for your emotional investment? Have you worked at Intel or with Pat?
I don't have much to add to the sibling comment. It is purely up to the parties of the contract to determine if the other breached it. The remedies of that breach are specifically covered in the contract itself.

Nothing needs to be "proven in court, before playing any such cards." It needs to be asserted. Once asserted, there may be a cure period (the licensee might have 30 days to remedy the problem, otherwise the contract terminates).

The party may disagree, and could negotiate different remedies or timelines - again, no court is required here. However, if they can't come to terms, then they can pursue this in contract court.

Be aware that I'm not defending, or justifying, or taking a position on any of this. It's just how it is. If you don't like it, then work on reforming tort and contract law as opposed to stating on Hacker News that the basis of most worldwide commerce is "nonsensical."

To quote some true words of wisdom

> Ain't nobody got time for that

No time for the poster to read through a page of text, or for the downvoter to find the most appropriate link describing their rationale.

I think it is much better for the commenter to post in a reply why they downvoted. It shows they are willing to engage. To simply post a link may signal to the original poster that the downvoter couldn't be bothered, or that he just pushed a button and ran.

Second, even for a broad class of entries downvoted for a similar reason, each one has some nuance which may get lost if all the poster has to go on is a preachy page.
A decade ago puts you at .NET Framework 4.0 or so, and C# version 4. A lot has changed since then. While your old books would still be somewhat relevant, you are missing out on a lot of new features in both C# and .NET. Especially since depreciation of .NET Framework and the transition to .NET 5.
I see a lot of these conversations recently (big surprise!) and one aspect that really doesn't seem to come up is that content only gets you so far.

There has been quality content "out there" for decades. In-arguably there is more content recently, and it is somewhat more discoverable. But it has always been true that truly effective self directed learners exist but have been thin on the ground.

To abuse a quote from good will hunting (IIRC) - you could have got that education for $3 in library late fees. Why don't more people do this? I think roughly the same problem is at work with MOOC and remote learning. Clearly some few people can get a lot out of it; clearly a lot don't.

I've taught inside and outside of universities; I suspect we still have a pretty poor understanding of what parts are working and why.

Some of the remote learning approaches I see now seem a bit of cargo-culting the existing system and then arguing about whether or not it is working.
I am surprised this news didn't make it to the front page already. Where is the data published and what does it contain?
"Racial and systemic equity" > forced labor and immoral practices in parts factories in the third world.

Racial equity is the bogeyman that's meant to save an unpopular capitalistic model. If working class people are arguing over racism, it distracts from the "inequity" of people like Tim Cook and Jeff Bezos having access to lawmakers, schools, healthcare and security that almost none of us have access to.

Why not a 105 mile perimeter circle? would that not potentially cut the average commute time between random points on the line?

I guess that might change some dynamic related to "interior" vs "exterior" properties and potentially make the bullet train slower to account for curved tracks.

Kind of an interesting thought experiment.
Trump was very profitable for the media. But this shit is getting too real, and they know it, so now they go the opposite direction.

In the absence of hate speech laws and some guidance to regulate social media to prevent mass psychosis, this kind of thing is expected.
I too know a few of the stereotypical "beyond delusional" types on the right, they do exist. But then I also know several onm the left whose take on things is "rather inconsistent" with a serious reading of the primary sources, and some reasonable, unemotional compilation. I imagine they are less crazy, and they are certainly better spoken (better vocabularies, etc), but I'd be interested to see an omniscient being's tally of the true distributed craziness out there.

Also, one shouldn't overlook things like confirmation bias - for every highly visible crazy you or I see, on either side, how many non-vocal people with reasonable ideas are there that the mind doesn't see, and therefore perceives to not exist (depending on the mode of thinking?

And then for those that do appear batshit insane - are they really as deluded as their words suggest? Your experiences seem to suggest so, but my question is: how do we go from the brutal discourse we've got going on now, to somewhere more reasonable? What actions do we have to take as a society, and as individuals (whether we "like to" or "should have to", or not), and what changes do we need to our social media platforms and media?

> But I just can't envision what a "serious effort" to break through would even look like.

I think both the way we report the news, and the way we discuss it, need a serious overhaul. The current approach of "news event/article --> social media argument --> go to bed -- > wake up --> (slightly updated) news event/article --> social media argument" is just an endless loop of outrage. I believe if we instead had some sort of a persistent model of each issue, showing all of the important attributes (with citations) and various and conflicting perspectives that we could refer to during debate rather than the latest news article, I think the conversation would be very different.

Compare how we discuss and analyze the complex matters and news of the world (which typically involve systems of some kind), versus how we do the same for complex systems at work - do the two approaches resemble each other?
I didn’t say that ISPs are disabling IPv6 because it has any connection to Bittorrent, I said that IPv6, on one hand, and Bittorent-accelerating features, on the other hand, are two things that some ISPs in various countries may want to block.

For example, in Poland the router that Orange forced fiber customers to accept for 2019 came with closed-source firmware, and while there was a hack to enable IPv6, the ISP – who alone had superuser privileges on the device – issued a command to the router each night at midnight to disable IPv6, because it considered IPv6 a "beta" feature not meant for wide use (a limbo it has been stuck in for years now). The customer, without access to the router internals, had no way to permanently override it. Fortunately, if I understand correctly, EU legislation is phasing out any obligation to accept only the ISP-provided router.
You’re making a feature into a disadvantage when you could just not use the feature.
Google doesn't do it as long as you are just adding a shortcut to drive.

To be clear, non-trivial WYSIWYG already works.

Wix and Shopify are both publicly traded companies, while Automattic and Squarespace are both planning 2021 IPOs. Wix shares have gone from roughly ~$17 in 2013 to ~$257 today, while Shopify has gone from ~$20 a share in 2016 to ~$1,184 today. Automattic's flagship platform—Wordpress—is responsible for over a third of all sites on the web, and Squarespace was generating over $300 million in revenue back in 2017.

Webflow has roughly zero chance of replacing frontend developers, but the "everyone who needs a website and doesn't want to hire a frontend team" market is pretty large and has been for a longtime.

What makes Webflow interesting to me, and where it is a gamble, is where it stands on the spectrum of developer-friendliness to "can kind of use a computer"-friendliness. They seem to be betting on a change in the market, particularly around the emergence (or rapid growth) of a certain demographic: people who are familiar with web technologies (HTML/CSS/JS etc.) but who don't want to muck around in them directly to build a site—the "know enough to be dangerous" crowd, if I had to give it a name.

I don't know if that will work out exactly, and I personally don't really find it helpful, but it's interesting. At the very least, I personally know a lot of teams building non-SaaS products (infra tools etc.) that use Webflow for their frontend.

I have not used a current version WSL, but it was terrible when I tried it. Could not find files saved in the WSL terminal in explorer (I understand that is a limitation). The was so much unknown going on in the "integration" that I wished I just used a VM and took the perf hit instead of digging to figure out where Windows was mounting the FS and figuring out permissions.

I have no desire to look at WSL ever again.

I experienced the same thing with on F# on mac a year or so ago, the dotnet CLI tool was effectively broken and official onboarding docs didn't work.

I tried revisiting when they announced F# 5 late last year, but same thing, docs don't work/broken on Mac. Turned me off for F# development and leaves me a bad impression on anything Microsoft releases.
Is this a common scenario? Bet all capital on a new product, and get bought out at the low point in market valuation: before the product has shown promise and the market price has still not recovered?

Edit: I am wondering about older companies more than startups (presumably it is more common for startups that look like failing but are actually on brink of success).
Maybe I'm not newfangled enough but isn't the database your persistent store? If not, maybe this is where the db in vs out of container folks are taking past each other.
