"The unreasonable effectiveness of simple HTML" from a thread near the end of Jan 2021.

Hmm, I submitted this 2 days ago, and it still shows 2 days in my submission list, but here it says it has been submitted 9 hours ago, why?
Well, do ISPs suddenly allow 137-139,445 nowadays or is this still considered to be a hole wide enough for a truck to drive through?

If those are still blocked, then the major OS in this world still proves that there are bad defaults and good defaults, one which leads to compromise and one that leaves you secure until you screw up in some other way.

If other OSes have "caught up" with not starting and exposing lots of random* daemons just because they exist on disk on a default install, then that is for the better of the world. That doesn't take away the idea that some OSs did it long before others, and hence have given their users a safer experience for a longer time.

*) random in the sense that "running a pop2 daemon when your box wasn't even intended to be a mail server" is beyond silly. Same for httpd, ftpd, ntpd-claiming-to-be-stratum-1-on-motherboard-clock (happened) and all other services a full default installation might provide.
On my local market it's the reason Google cloud adoption among medium to large companies and institutions is laughably low. Microsoft's support exists, it's a real argument towards them.
I will get round to updating at some point, but honestly I don't think anyone in the community cares all that much. D has made it this far basically without paid staff until extremely recently i.e. we don't have a tech company as a sugar daddy.

People can be very generous in their donations, but consider that Google probably spend 10M a year on Go - of D and Go, regardless of which one you prefer, which one makes you think.
Potentially, depending on your Pi-hole’s blocklists. For reference you could check against these popular spy pixel lists:

I bet the cover and all the pages are shipped in a flat pack, and you have to bind them yourself with the included binders and binding tool.
Oh, that actually sounds like a cool idea for an AR app.

Imagine using AR to add furnitures to your current room with furniture from a virtual catalogue. That way, you can see how your room would look like instead of imagining it inside your head.

And if IKEA were to do it, they can just add shopping feature so the customer could purchase the furniture after trying it out inside their own room. That totally sounds like a killer app!

I wonder if there's anything like that already on the market.
> Then why can’t anyone perform the basic step of defining their terms? What is “free will” according to you?

I am surprised at how you can't understand that there are terms that are insanely useful and yet can't be defined exactly 100%.

But ok I agree to play this game if you first define the term "love" to me real quick?

>Weirdly enough people still talk to GPT-3 bots for longer than 10 minutes.

Show some sources. I don't care about 1 uncommon person doing it once, and that just to prove that they technically can, or while being high, or someone being tricked into it and for a short while falling for it..., I am saying that in general people don't. You spend interestingly huge amount of effort to not see this obvious point...
Project to track, record, and aggregate power outages across the united states
It's 0.0471% of the 2020 federal budget, which was 4.79 trillion dollars. That's a pretty puny share of the budget. For comparison, the government gave 45 billion to farmers in 2020[1].

What's the history behind allowing external images in emails? Was it a size limitation?

HTML emails already use only a subset of HTML, so I don't understand why it wasn't trimmed down more to only allow images as data URLs or encoded in Base64.
Geomagical are doing that: https://geomagical.com/
That's true, I could've done exactly the same thing with MySQL, MariaDB, Postgres, etc.. But take note of the situations, and you'll notice some things which make SQLite stand out.

I said I was working in Python. I was working across three environments: Two separate compute environments, and my work macOS laptop. I didn't want to have to deal with installing the appropriate DB driver, and sqlite is part of the Python standard library.

Another thing to note is that I didn't already have a database server spun up, and I didn't think it was worth doing the work of spinning up a Postgres database server.

Finally, I didn't intend the "single file" to be an export. I intended it to be an actual, usable database, which my co-workers can use with minimal friction.

Those are a few of the reasons why I made the choice I did. And I think SQLite worked quite well!
There's definitely a strong link between ability to write and ability to think/explain things clearly. Writing is an incredible skill, because if kind of forces you to organize your thoughts before expressing them. And not just writing. Standup comedy has a very similar effect.
> Does US stores also have the ability to pick items up from a warehouse next to their stores? Btw. how is this option also a paid one is beyond me.

That's because every IKEA store is it's own warehouse. Everything you can see is the stock. There is only a small part where you can store stuff. So, instead of you running around and picking stuff from the shelves, an employee has to do it. It's basically a "convenience fee", because it's more expensive for IKEA to collect it for you then you collecting it. I'm not here to judge, though...

Donald McNeil fired for repeating the N-word during conversation about someone saying the N-word.

Cade Metz trying to frame liberal Californian Democrat-voting Jewish psychiatrist (Scott Alexander) as some kind of enabler and fellow traveler for white supremacists.

The weird crusade against Emmanuel Macron and France b/c everywhere is America, of course, and countries cannot be allowed to have different underlying philosophies (like laicite).
Sad to hear about your fiancee. Good that this helps in keeping her alive in your memories.
Also, don't make the mistake of trying to call for a return. IKEA US had a 3+ hour long wait for the phones.
I am generally familiar with IKEA's offerings, but I have a hard time finding anything in the app. On the web site it's nearly impossible.

Unless you know the name, then search works (as long as you're willing to scroll through 150 totally different items with that name).
Nice. I made a similar tool that saves and searches the history by a query string. In order to keep the history separate for each session I save it to a different file. Nothing I type is ever lost, I can always search for it.
Cool thing, but kind of useless.

Reasons I would never buy this:

1. It's from Google, so privacy issues are a big problem. Also they will probably discontinue it any day now.

2. I guess you'll have to charge it all the time. I hate charging my phone and watch already so the utility of this is not good enough to warrant that issue.

3. It doesn't solve any problem for me. It is a solution seeking a problem. Fiddle with this only to turn of my lamps which I can do from my phone? Nah thanks. I already have automation on many of my lights to follow the day/night cycle and I never even have to think of switching it manually so this is kind of a step back. I don't really see that many other features to be actually useful.
Tiktok's algorithm is on a completely other level.
For legitimate email marketers these pixels are important to have because:

1. Helps to prune users who never open emails thus giving you a smaller more engaged list.

2. Helps to see if the content they are sending to users is leading to engagement so they can send better emails next time.

Yes, yes I know. Why even send emails in the first place.

All email marketing is not evil.

But legitimate marketers have businesses to run in the real world and without these little pixels they would be sending un-targeted and mostly useless marketing messages to legitimate subscribers.
I love the stories about the planet's discovery. There are always these little details that could make their own stories. Like the Kuiper belt containing 3T comets? Geez.

I was also curious to know what astrologers make of this (I know next to nothing about it except the use of planetary reference), and found this take pretty interesting:

https://www.cainer.com/features/planet-9.html

> Planet 9, whatever it eventually gets named, moves too slowly through the zodiac to be an indicator of anyone's daily progress through life. We're not yet sure of its orbit but it may well spend over 2,000 years in some zodiac signs. That means both my mother and my youngest baby grandson will have been born with Planet 9 at precisely the same point in the zodiac.

> As an individual significator, it is therefore limited. But as an auspicious omen, suggesting that a generation of billions, all over the planet, are now destined to enjoy a far brighter future, it is most potent...
I bet this is a result of the dichotomy of purpose that this comment by notriddle is describing[1]:

> They want it to form a general resource, with Stack Overflow being less of a bulletin board and more of a reference guide. The problem is that their UI doesn't telegraph this very well (I blame the way they leave the original asker's name and avatar visible on the question), and neither do their marketing materials. They're kinda trying to have it both ways, baiting people with the chance to get their own question getting answered and then switching to editing their question into something more generally useful than something just for them.

Easy to look at an old question and think "There's no point posting another answer here, the asker is long gone." If we thought about it more like a wiki page and less like Yahoo Answers that wouldn't be the case.

In Denmark it's even worse than sucky shipping. Here we pay to collect our purchased items ourselves. So it's the items price plus ~$6 to collect it.
Also replicated in English (Australia), so I agree. I would have phrased this as "one and a quarter minutes", which works, or "75 seconds" which also works just fine. for the 1 hour 30 request above, I would usually phrase this as "an hour and a half" which works just fine. I agree siri can be very picky though - things need to be phrased a certain way, and adapting speech patterns to that is frustrating.

Other simple time-based requests such as "what's the time difference to singapore?" don't work on siri either, which is irritating as I work across multiple time zones and I'm forever figuring out time differences.

This seems like a hard job then. If we adjust the site to make it accessible for you, then we might make it less accessible for me.

Maybe that’s why CSS was originally made to be overridden client side, so everyone can make their own choices about font and background.

It exists. The IKEA Smart app (from IKEA itself).
The same tracking functionality can be attached to logos in the email without raising any suspicion.
Does losing money because you bought into a dying retailer at a $35 billion valuation mean the game is rigged against you?
The attitude you have that it's your right to know whether someone opened an email is the problem.

How you casually mention spying in to someone else's home and watching their actions as if it's perfectly normal is really creepy.

There's nothing 'legitimate' about those marketers, they're exactly the problem.
good. i have recently switched to MIAB and the legacy has to be continued in parallel for some time but this is one of the benefits. nice
Exactly this. Wood stoves operated in this manner are extremely efficient, and generate particulate emissions comparable to an oil-fired furnace, maybe 100x less than an open-hearth fireplace.

They’re on the Tier 2 support tier, not the Tier you’re foolish to even try to use this support tier.

The use of the term "Jacquard" in this context is really annoying. Jacquard is already a fashion/textiles device[1].

I get that it's trying to 'pay homage' or something, but Jacquard machines are still used today.

When tech companies overload terms like this it creates confusion. Are you talking about the machine or the Google product.

Another example of the same behaviour is Peloton.

That's not a counterpoint if those countries also consume an insignificant amount of energy.

Isn't a rebuttal different than a deflection?

Anyway half - 3/4ths of bitcoin mining is using clean energy that wasn't going to be used for anything else, or a sustainability solution for energy that was going to be used as pollution.
How to create segmented control in SwiftUI
I’ve never used (nor even heard about) JBuilder, but Macintosh Common Lisp back in the 1990s was (at least to me) far more user friendly and fun to use than IntelliJ today. It even felt a lot faster, despite running on hardware from the previous millennium.
Uhhh...you mean like, a company?
I was wondering about backups! I thought, if doing a simple `cp`, you'd also have to make sure any remaining journal or WAL files are also copied.

But now as I'm looking through SQLite docs, I found VACUUM INTO (https://www.sqlite.org/lang_vacuum.html#vacuuminto), which lets you do a backup of an in-use database, combined with a VACUUM on the new database file!
> I feel like they’ve used this hack to sneak changes into the language which technically don’t break their Go 1 guarantee.

The go 1 guarantee only says that existing go programs will continue to compile correctly on new releases. It doesn't say that new programs will compile correctly on old releases.
Their catalogues didn't contain a single photography. You watch CGI-porn with oversaturated colors and go to their place and purchase furnitures from cartboard and paper. It's as if McDonals was releasing paper catalogue with their menus.
Has anybody asked GPT-3 to come up with fictional Ikea product names? That would be hilarious!
the online shopping isn't the best, but then with the current lockdown in germany you can do click&collect and get your stuff in the parking garage... still kinda sad they still charge 10€ extra for that (instead of 15 during normal times), but then it worked flawlessly and the stuff was ready for pickup the next day.

still limited to things available in the local ikea, you can not mix "online" available and local available stuff...

This is an asinine objection.
I find the persistent directory stack of ohmyzsh (easy enough to enable yourself in zsh) easier to use than things like autojump or z, and pretty much makes them unnecessary. I miss this basic functionality in fish (hoping someone will point out that I have overlooked it)

I think the core of the issue is that, while you can take a FP based view on how Factorio works, typically the interesting problems to model in Factorio aren't really "FP" problems. They're not really "imperative" problems either. Really, I don't think they're programming problems, even if they kind of look like programming problems.
I personally find that fzf is better because I can
see where I'm going to end up before I accept the
operation.

I agree that's a must-have feature. Luckily z does it as well.

Type `z foo` and hit tab.

If there's a single match, "foo" will be expanded in place to the proper path.

If there are multiple matches, you can choose from a list of paths.

So, no mystery navigation (unless you want it) -- you can always see where you're going.

You can embed the image inside the actual multi-part message, and it will be shown without accessing network. It is usually used for logos, signatures and the such and, afaik, can't be used for tracking mail opening.
Real world is dirty. It needs logging, I/O, etc. Yes you can model those with monads in Haskell, but what happens much more frequently is that you’re in a team of Java/Python/Js/C++ programmers and you want to profit from some of the benefits of FP at least (testability, composeability). And that is where the perfect becomes the enemy of the better if you then just give up because you can’t get your single paradigm FP language. As a modeling tool however it is still very powerful, as are some aspects of OOP.
Good riddance, in my opinion. 40 million copies of a thick catalog with glossy pages means a couple shittons of not just trees but petroleum and petrochemicals for production, distribution, and disposal. Every year! And ten years ago, it was nearly 200. https://archive.is/rHAhG

Can you even imagine a stack of one million catalogs?

That's space, trees, plants, mammals, birds, insects, mushrooms, ... all being squeezed for a glossy catalog, most of which will get thumbed through once or twice and sent to the landfill to rot.

These catalogs do not biodegrade well, by the way, because they're not just paper.

I love paper books, and I enjoyed browsing this catalog just like many others in this thread, and yet I don't think I will miss this one. Hopefully, other thick glossy catalogs will follow suit.

Production of catalogs like this squeezes our biome, and if we don't turn back, it will pop, and we'll be left with only enough resources for a small fraction of us to survive.

I don't know if they made it generally available, but I know IKEA made a demo/beta app that did just that.
Luckily physics works pretty well.

Unfortunately, everything is trivial in theory.
It seems to me front end developer and backend developer still works, although front end developer role evolved, can’t see a need for this extra long names.

Yes front end developers do more, than when the web was just html and tables, but that’s just evolution.

You want to focus on the UI only, UI developer fits. With complexity increasing, web developer title doesn’t make sense as it is too generic.

But backend, being it in java or node is a backend. I don’t see the need for this new categorisations.

I think the question arises from Fullstack term usage?
fullstack front end and fullstack backend has been thrown around in job interviews, so fullstack alone without context doesn’t make sense: I don’t think it ever did.

Consider how many HTML emails the average person receives. Now add 2MB+ [0] for all the images that are attached to each of those emails. Then add the 33% overhead for Base64 encoding them. It adds up quickly. Before Gmail came along and drastically increased mailbox sizes, having images attached to every HTML email would quickly overwhelm typical mailboxes.

I think fundamentally Google is not the best company to push this forward, but there are obvious targets if it was actually working well. In particular I expect the market for devices with lower capabilities (=lower engagement from the user) to be more and more attractive to people who want to be connected, but not too much.

A watch is a better match only for people wanting to wear a watch (I don’t, my kid doesn’t, given how the watch market dipped once cell phones reached their critical mass, a significant number of people don’t either if they have a choice)

Also keep in mind that it’s only bluetooth, so the phone is always at a reasonable distance to do engaging tasks (answering calls for instance).
This goes beyond nefarious marketing purposes - I know lots of people who have started to use open trackers in their personal emails!

In a certain way, for people who are now very accustomed to read receipts, it's a way of adding a modern feature to a legacy product.
I remember in the Netherlands we were up in arms for ages about still getting "useless" phone books and yellow pages, despite putting the "no ads - no (free) magazines" stickers (which were popular when I lived there). When I moved to the US, thankfully no more phone books, but I felt very similar to the Ikea magazine: a waste of paper, a burden to the environment, and I don't understand why you think it would've been cheap? We shop at Ikea all the time (barring pandemics), I'd see new stuff _there_.
Based on available renderings for both skycranes[1][2], the motors do not appear to have any gimble ability, so must be controlled by thrust alone. It's interesting that the valves consume 168 watts of power each, 1.34kw of power just for the throttle valves. The paper in [4] mentions they were adapted from the same engines used for the Viking landers.

A paper specifically on the EDL system [4]. Page 13 is where the fun starts.
The IMU appears to be a Honeywell MIMU [5][6] and is combined with a radar altimeter for navigation and attitude control.
