I think there's value in having a certain amount of ownership and control of a developer ecosystem. It's open-source, but Google will probably remain associated with Flutter and have the dominant influence on its future.

I'm not totally sure what you mean by "a toolkit for platforms they have a vested interest in". Google has a vested interest in basically all the platforms out there. They might create Android, but they certainly make a lot of apps for iOS. I'm guessing they'd like to simplify things using Flutter. Mac and Windows might not see a huge number of native Google apps, but that could change over time - especially if they have a way of making a web version and a desktop version out of the same codebase. Imagine a native macOS Gmail client using Flutter. The same code that could compile to JS for the web could compile down to native for macOS.

Having something be open source and widely adopted makes a language and ecosystem stronger. The Go authors noted that they open-sourced Go because it would become stronger as more people used it.

And I wouldn't underestimate the soft power that comes from being in charge of one of these things. VSCode, .NET Core, and TypeScript are all free, but it's given Microsoft a huge amount of soft power in the ecosystem and a lot of credibility and mind-share.

With a cross-platform UI kit, you can definitely end up with a lot of power. Maybe the experience on Android feels better and more native because your engineers are putting their effort into the Android UI and its patterns more. That's not to say that they'd purposefully make the iOS experience bad or anything, but maybe the iOS-style widgets don't get quite as much polish and maybe developers get encouraged or defaulted into shipping Android-style Material Design apps to iOS. Again, I'm not saying this is malicious, I'm just saying that Google might spend more time on the pieces that are important to them. Google's web docs for Flutter could easily include sections for "and this is how you hook it up to Google Cloud".

I think it's also important to recognize that while Android has more marketshare globally, Apple is generally more popular in the US and generally more popular with upper-income folks. Apps like Clubhouse often launch as iOS-only. 11 months after launch and the Hottest New Thing™ is still iOS-only. If Google can convince developers to use Flutter for the Next Big Thing™, it guarantees that it will be available for Android.

I think there's a lot of value for Google. Your teams can build better apps in less time cross-platform. You potentially become a leader in the way that Facebook has with React, Microsoft has with VSCode/.NET Core/TypeScript, etc. You guarantee first-class support for your devices. You guarantee that the new things you want supported will get supported since you can prioritize your engineers on it - and potentially even get supported in the way you want. And potentially some nice tie-ins to Google Cloud and Firebase via first-class support, documentation, etc.
You appear to have a much more impoverished view of kids and their ability to learn than I do. My experience (not to mention my memory of how I was myself as a kid) is that kids grasp the fact that there can be more to a subject than adults are able to teach them at a particular time and place, so they're ok with adults honestly admitting that. But they do not like adults telling them categorical statements that later turn out to be wrong.
Flutters model really fundamentally isn’t there “right one”. It truly is the successor to Flash, but with Google behind it.

But if you want to make apps that feel actually native on their platforms, React has it handily beat. It’s a better fundamental model, that even with a slower language and runtime feels better in the end by far.
yea, I haven't spent too much time reducing the markdown rendering overhead (just pulled a library off the shelf).

I basically just use this site to upload static text files.
The same text can be rendered a couple ways (e.g. as hmtl, raw, as code with syntax highlighting)
Sure, that's a good use-case though rather niche, as most people definitely don't want irreversible transactions. It's certainly well suited to that use and I agree better than normal payment networks for it.

I'm not convinced that niche in any way justifies the current valuation or hype, in particular from corps like Payal.

Yes but on the web you can use a user-agent that doesn't care about what the site says should be selectable, or at least an extension that overrides the CSS in question.
You can do it like this:

First define a*b for integers by addition.

Define the the rational numbers as ordered pairs of integers where the last number may not be 0. Consider the rational number (a,b) to be equivalent to (c, d) if a*d = b*c

(Exercise for the reader: Prove that this is an equivalence relation)

Now define (a, b) + (c, d) = (ad + bc, bd), (a, b) * (c, d) = (ac, bd)

(Exercise for the reader: Prove that the subset of rationals (n, 1) behaves just like the integers)
My understanding is that “DDG” have their own “web crawler”?

What I understand from your reply is that they don’t?

So if I search on Bing for a specific keyword, I will get the same results from DDG.

What about misspelled words? I have used DDG before.. for about two weeks. They offer poor suggestions for my misspelling.

What I’m suggesting is using Google results even after misspellings. What are the laws on scraping Google for suggestions/misspellings?
Because Google is focused on language and tooling development, but forgot to create a killer app example with publicly available source code. Show us a minor Google property re-done in Flutter with code examples and people would flock to it.

But. They. Won't.

Or just re-arrange the terms to be (1*1)÷(2*2). No need to add half, half a time, just understand that multiplication distributes over fractions.

That said i think the concept would make sense to most school children as a way of extending the intuitive concept of multiplication of natural numbers.
Many folks are using GitOps with Flux/ArgoCD to deploy their k8s apps but they can't use Terraform in the same workflow. How does Crossplane help get to a single GitOps workflow so app teams can self-service the infra from within the app cluster alongside their k8s app Deployments?
Unfortunately, your assessment is very correct. There will be no solution and only a slow decline as previous systems become obsolete and there no on to fix or upgrade to better systems.

Come on. Isn't this only happening because the initial text widget did not have text selection, the one with text selection came later and now we are in this bad situation? Just enable text selection for both/all text widgets when targeting the web. You could couple that with a major version increase...

The heavier feel may not be preferred, but it makes having a flexible, cheap suspension design much easier.
For example small carthat weighs 1000kg may be be expected to carrier 4-5 adults, an additional ~350kg. To do this the suspension must be overly sprung (and possibly under damped) for a single driver. A 2000kg Tesla means that even without air suspension or adaptive shocks, it will ride much better with a single driver while still being a capable of a high payload.
Having a large battery also moves the unsprung:sprung mass ratio favourably.

Specialty vehicles like sports cars and offroad trucksand where payload rating is not a concern function much better the lighter they are though.

What a great acquisition. Congrats to both teams!
> I'm of the general mindset that the CTO should be the most technical.

For a decent size company I'd hope the same, but with the proviso that over time any specific industry experience will degrade to a more general understanding, which is fine.

And if they don't have the experience they delegate.

So bearing in mind the original story, either the CTO should be at least decently technical enough to avoid composing SQL like that commit does, or the CTO should not be committing code in the first place.
A single sheet of paper for a seven book series doesn't sound too macro, especially given how Smith describes obsessing over details. Compare with Straczinski, who had a whole binder of note cards outlining the 5-year story arc of Babylon 5. Granted, TV show, not novel, but it felt more novel-like.

Rowling sounds more pantsy, like saying "I'm going to drive from SF to NYC, and I'm going to stop at my parents' in Denver", then when the day arrives, you sit in the car, pull up Apple Maps, and say, "hmm, I think I want to go the Las Vegas to Denver route rather than Salt Lake City, because it's winter", and then start driving and find a hotel when you're tired. Snow in Utah? Hmm, should I risk it or stop early? As opposed to planning it all out two weeks before, "Day 1: SF to LV, stay at Bellagio; Day 2: LV to Canyonlands NP, camp overnight; Day 3: Go hiking, weather permitting; Day 4: Canyonlands to Denver; ..."

One data point. My salary was basically stagnant 2005-2015 then started going up. Last couple years increased quite a bit.
Out of curiosity, if they kept the touch bar but as an addition to a row of function keys, rather than a replacement, would you still have an issue with the TB?
Don't know why you're being downvoted, 80th percentile is ~$86k single-earner. As an example, the write-off for student loan interest is completely phased out at $85k.
It depends on how you look at things, in this case you and the search service provider are both signal clients and the proxy is the signal server that relays the messages between the clients and provides privacy on the network level (hides the IP).
Since the proxy cannot decrypt the query or the response it can’t see anything.

Wether the actual privacy as in is it possible to correlate queries to attribute a search to a given user is always preserved it’s hard to tell without looking at the implementation in depth but it provides some level of additional privacy at least to the level of a VPN.
It seems strange that a state solely determines the boundary for a crime, solely enforces that boundary, solely executes the related punishment, and then suddenly everyone’s piling on.

If it’s the job of the state, it should be the job of the state.
Why are you guys here on HN still using Chrome? There is literally not a single reason I can think of to be supporting this behemoth that is killing the open web. Firefox is excellent actually and Firebug IMO is far superior to Chrome's offering. I understand non-techies using it like they used Explorer, but come on guys.
Why not kill TicketMaster or eBay?

I actually dont mind TurboTax - they make it easy and they remember what happened last year. Could competition make it even better - sure.

But where near monopolies really exist is with eBay and TicketMaster. Sure there are 1000s of auction sites and ticketing sites - but none have quite the power as these two.
Me too, I ultimately ended up quite frustrated with the laptop. My suspicion is that it ultimately comes down to your comfort with MacOS and your workflow. I spent a long time trying to get my M1 Macbook Air to simulate my workflow on Linux, but it was never _quite_ there. Sure the thing is zippy, but it doesn't mean much to me without a proper package manager or open operating system.

With that being said, I'm an old-school curmudgeon when it comes to computers. I'm hard to please, and I don't necessarily hold it against Apple that they didn't make "the perfect computer".

As an aside, is anyone interested in an $850 8gb Macbook Air? Lightly used with only 70tb written to the drive.
Yeah… I almost didn't link it because of that.
The gallery already downloads a wasm file for me. Not sure if it's used.

ps: for me the Gallery is extremely laggy in Firefox, but works decently well on Chrome. Maybe wasm is enabled on Chrome only.

> Gebru was in conflict with LeCun, but the mob of other ethicists that went all in on him were who I was talking about.

Which ones? I followed things at the time, most of the other people who disagreed with Yann were...also PhDs, many of whom have significant accomplishments in their own right. I mean there are certainly random twitter people saying things, but that wasn't unique to the sides of the ethicists. Random twitter people also attacked and insulted Gebru and co too. So saying "Watching highly entitled, and often narcissistic people with no tangible accomplishments attack Timnit Gebru is pretty insane." is equally correct, but you didn't say that. That's suspicious and perhaps revealing of your biases on the subject.

> Gebru's accomplishments aren't shit compared to LeCun's

Of course. She's also had her PhD for 3 years, as opposed to 30. Its no surprise LeCun has accomplished more in a career 10x as long.

There’s a Better Way to Parent: Less Yelling, Less Praise
Well that's how neural networks er work. They are hand-crafted systems with a human-devised training algorithm, backprop. Their output is a model trained on data. But the algorithms that train the model, themselves, are coded manually.

Same goes for basically all machine learning algorithms. They are hand-crafted systems that train models from data.
They don't simply collect all "documents" they need. They hoover up the data directly from various institutions. Your employer being one, your bank another, your medical aid, etc. Not only that, but they're getting involved with the IRS now via FATCA. It's actually awesome that they're probably doing a better job than the government itself when it comes to having an all-encompassing view of the tax-cattle that they oversee.
The SaaS project I'm working on won't have a free tier. We think it's unfair to make paying customers support free customers.
Not sure what personal income has to do with anything. Hand held touch devices have revolutionized Internet access. The deeper down the income scale you go, the less likely you are to encounter a personal computer while you’ll still likely encounter a smart phone. Amazon will work on the web or as an app on that phone, but with the app the user experience will be better. That may be because Google and Apple have intentionally prioritized native APIs while hindering PWAs, but that’s still the case.

Anyway, I do still wonder: if FAANG had to pick between native and web apps, which do you think would they pick?
> Any other hardware I encountered required some kind of software mixing, IIRC.

Yes, that was dmix :) And it fits the timeline, hardware mixing was killed off back then by soundcard vendors/microsoft, iirc.

It's still excellent. I just did my taxes in FreeTaxUSA this year for the first time and it's not nearly as good as TT last year. FTU is like manually filling in the IRS PDF's except as webforms, whereas TT imports PDF's and parses everything correctly, leaving you to do a quick scan. FTU is free because it's just a light GUI layer over the 1040 and various Schedule forms.

I'm doing embedded development using an M1 and encountered my first arm/x86 related problem yesterday (trying to open an arm dylib from an x86 application didn't work).

Edit: VSCode Insiders build (referenced elsewhere on this page) is mad fast. Get it!

Honestly very impressed with this thing.
Twice as fast as the #1 supercomputer in the world 1994-1996, the Fujitsu Numerical Wind Tunnel.
1. We kinda knew RSA has an expiration date due to quantum computers. Assuming the paper is true, this just brought the expiration date far closer to us.

2. Major issue is going to be webpki and replaying govt captured encrypted communications.

3. There are a lot of abandoned servers out there that use RSA. There is a lot of code signing that uses RSA. There is just a lot of identity proven on the web that uses RSA to prove the identity. It's going to be a clusterfuck of identity. Again, assuming the paper means RSA is just completely broken.
Gender, sexuality, neurodivergence, “race” (however you define it), “caste” (however you define it), disabilities (however you define them, tbh, though it generally makes more sense than “race” or “caste”)… Either I just have a really skewed social circle, or most people are minorities in at least one category.
Non-business users will absolutely continue to pirate for as long as possible. Adobe products are basically unpiratable at this point, and the $20/mo subscription service is expensive, but reasonably affordable compared to the $600 or whatever the boxed software ran all those years ago.

It's easier for the average person to download a Torrent than sign up for Netflix, find out that the thing they wanted isn't there, try to look where it would be available, find services that say it has it, sign up for that, find out that it is available there only for other countries, and when you finally find it somewhere it's not with the language dubbing/subtitiles that you want - meanwhile, the same option you couldn't get legally is easily available on torrents where it Just Works.

The illegal services are strong when they win on selection and availability; in markets where it is easier to just sign up for Netflix (I assume they exist, perhaps you live in one of them) undoubtedly privacy gets less popular. And Netflix is a good example, I know people who view on Netflix stuff that's there and pirate the stuff that's not.
