Mostly Windows and Android. Although both audio pipelines aren't great I don't think it's a platform problem--I've never seen a measurement of even 100ms lag with Bluetooth (excluding aptX-LL) and it's usually in the 300ms range. It also still only does two-way audio at 8kHz, which is unbelievable to me in 2021.

The block subsidy is constant between halvings. And is thus a step function.
But "emission" refers to cumulative block subsidies. And thus is piecewise linear, with 34 pieces of exponentially decreasing slope, the last one ending up flat.
That's a very narrow minded view of technology in my opinion. People can create, re-solve and re-break whatever they want. If an unproven and untested technology makes its way into a system you deem critical, that's a flaw of management not of the technology itself.
LogMeIn did the same. They became popular because they have a great product that was free to use for personal matters.

So I had it installed on all of my family and friend's computers to use it occasionally when they had trouble.

Then one day they changed license and you couldn't use them anymore.

I had to move to TeamViewer.
Science is politicized by the establishment elites to further their narratives. It doesn’t matter what the science says or is even true or not.

Good point! We'd be living in a world where the lights flicker every ten minutes as gigawatts of power are momentarily switched on and off :) Or miners would have to install gigantic capacitors to fill with charge, just to power their machines for the brief instant of usage!

My example is also missing the obvious next step though - once you are using a trusted source of data (or even a wide selection of trusted sources), the whole blockchain idea becomes pointless, you don't need to do any mining at all, you can let the trusted sources run a distributed database...

Well as someone who has worked on this issue for 17+ years, and also a successful entrepreneur and product builder at a few of the big dogs, I'm a hard disagree.

ImaginaryProperty laws are the root of all the biggest evil problems in tech. They corrupt everything at the core and a reckoning is coming.

I love Cosmos! We used to use storybook a few years back but it required ongoing maintenance whenever we made changes to our build configs which meant it would slowly fall behind the rest of our application over time. The brilliance of Cosmos is that it relies on your existing configs to build the components, so it's just a "set it and forget it" setup. Being able to produce static builds is also great and we rely on this to generate component previews in our CI so that QA can review component appearance and behavior before we even merge them into development. The Cosmos UI hooks are also a clever use of hooks that allow the fixtures to be tested by non-technical people in a manner that aligns with the logical boundaries of the component's design from an engineering perspective. The approach to designating a fixture file using the .fixture extension is also low effort meaning engineers actually do it. It's awesome, I highly recommend it if you work on a complex react front-end with many individual components.
I find it more reliable for React Native projects. We moved from Storybook to Cosmos and it's been a lot smoother. But, to be fair, this was awhile ago so Storybook might be more stable in React Native by now.
The interesting thing is that it lets you develop against your real infrastructure. This speeds up your iteration cycle drastically when compared to the other serverless tools.

But I do feel your pain, building a CI/CD for serverless is quite annoying and is a big waste of time for startups. I would not recommend it.

And quite frankly serverless as an ecosystem needs to be improved before it can compete with app engine, when it comes to developer experience. We care a great deal about it and that's what we are working on.
Depends on how much understanding you're talking about. I don't need to know how to build an x86 chip, but as an experienced and educated professional programmer I should probably have a decent sense of which kinds of instructions are time consuming and which aren't, how the cache works, etc.

Abstractions are leaky. You should strive to understand where your black box is transparent.
VS Code is already running in both examples.

A lot of the overhead seems to come from making a new window (even though the app itself is already running), although notably most of the time spent in the Prettier example seems to be spent syntax highlighting the JavaScript. If you want to try a direct comparison of opening a file vs. a window, you can see the difference between opening a new file in an existing window (on Mac, `⌘N` / `File > New File`) or new window (on Mac, `⌥⌘N` / `File > New Window`). For me the latter is far slower than the former.

It's a SaaS offering hosting for FOSS. If you want to be able to patch and change and manage the running homeserver, than you're just manually managing the homeserver, which would be self-hosting! Which is a great thing to do, but then there's no point in buying this service, just rent a VPS. The entire point of this service is that they do the management for you - if you would rather do the management yourself, you totally can. People running their own homeserver are very much first-class citizens on the Matrix network, and managing it yourself is cheaper. The extra expense here is entirely to get them to manage it for you, which seems to be the opposite of what you want.

The unwavering optimism of Tim O'Reilly (2020)
I'm not very optimistic about avoiding a "Dark Age".

Rational thinking and the idea to look at data seems to be completely foreign to most people I know. Higher educated people seem to absorb and repeat dogmas and propaganda unfiltered even faster.

Some patterns I have come across:

Alpha-Rational:
Claiming that ideas that come from authority (dogma) or self (narcissism) are rational - rejecting to look at any data.

Anti-Rational: Reject the idea to look at data "life is uncertain", "data is garbage", "it's immoral to look at data" - although there is a lot of good data and drawing conclusions is not even difficult.

Malicious rational: Know your science and cherry-pick data for profit to support the highest bidder.

It a way science is very similar to free speech. Its can be very harmful when misused, but generally the answer to bad science is not LESS science, but BETTER science.

The proper role of the education system of any given country, and a good predictor of its success, is how well it teaches us to evaluate the difference.
If you zoom in enough, you won't see these exponential steps. If you were able to zoom out completely, you'd see _only_ the exponential function. Bitcoin's emission is an exponential function (dropping exponentially), the fact that there is some time period between these exponential steps does not make it non-exponential. This would have been obvious if the halvings were every 30 minutes, but it's much less obvious when the "in-between step interval" is 4 years.
That's the main reason I'm so excited for EVs with useful amounts of solar panels on top. Adding 5-10 miles of range per day is enough to cover a lot of people's commutes, especially those who live apartments that're more likely to be closer to the city. (Folks in sprawling suburbia likely have longer commutes, but also have a place to plug in and charge.)

It's not weight, it's because they're proven and reliable. You don't want to risk the success of the mission on unproven hardware.

> There are some avionics components that are very tough and radiation resistant, but much of the technology is commercial grade. The processor board that we used, for instance, is a Snapdragon 801, which is manufactured by Qualcomm. It’s essentially a cell phone class processor, and the board is very small. But ironically, because it’s relatively modern technology, it’s vastly more powerful than the processors that are flying on the rover.
Between MailChimp and Basecamp, it seems like a few products have spun out of agencies. Is it a good idea to first start an agency to maintain reliable cash flow until a product strikes it big, or is it a distraction/time sink? Curious on the community's thoughts. In my opinion, it seems smart because you can float by indefinitely with a handful of clients until you have market fit with some product, though I wonder if statistically it would make more sense to just focus on the agency without the distraction of product.

Timbre is not only about harmonic content. There's also the envelope of the sound - how it changes over time. Violin pizzicato (plucked) sounds completely different than violin arco (bowed), yet it's the same string being excited into vibration. Pizzicato is percussive and decaying, arco is more smooth and sustaining. Same for piano - try to imagine a piano sound that doesn't decay and doesn't start with a bit of percussive thump, that would sound quite different!

We are a hosting company. Customer apps run in isolated private networks. We let them connect to these private networks with WireGuard. Customers _also_ want to do things like "launch a console", so we give them a mechanism for SSHing into their running containers over their private network (6PN).

WireGuard is dead simple, but setting it up is extra cognitive friction if you've never dealt with it before (or if you're in an environment where you can't create a network interface). Jason Donenfield did some magic with a Google user space networking stack that lets us "hide" the wireguard component. People using our CLI will soon be able to connect to their private network + SSH into a container with one command.

Basically, WireGuard is cool and being able to connect into a wireguard network from a userland program is really helpful for building a straightforward UX.
The original post said languages not “top implementation.”

This is true, the web is in essence[0] what we, as a collective society, make of it. Many of the points he brings up I never even thought of, and I like to consider myself a staunch privacy advocate.

Namely, the points on how small businesses are affected by GDPR and anti-tracking / anti-cookie measures are fresh perspectives I've never thought of. To his point, all this is going to do is drive people to where the eye balls are, so instead of just marketing on Facebook (or Twitter, or Reddit) you want to market and convert your audience all on the same platform(s) because its increasingly difficult to do otherwise.

My counter point being of course, that this may have been inevitable anyway, since this really is increasingly the way people interact, is via apps like Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Reddit etc and less and less on the open web. Of course large corporations can and should and will kicking or screaming or no, comply with the laws, but little thought has been given how much those laws don't disrupt the fundamental problem: disrupting the stranglehold these companies have on interaction. I think a good amount of the GDPR, and Apple's recent moves have good ideas and net wins, but after reading this article, I can also see how it will simply, in the long term, act as a form of regulatory capture where only the largest entrenched companies can comply and small companies, particularly non tech small businesses, will be increasingly more reliant on those platforms going forward.

The solution isn't of course, to get rid of things like the GDPR, but like all laws and regulation, it needs to be re-thought and re-shaped as it affects the marketplace, and that's the crux of the problem, most regulation is set it and forget (particularly in the US) where there is little after thought given or follow up to it and augmenting it appropriately to minimize real downsides (not perceived ones that corporations complain about, but more barriers it creates to new businesses) and asking the question of is this acceptable or do we need to re-think some aspect of this?

I know this won't play that well either, its not going to be a popular debate among my peers, but its important we consider all the facts, none the less.

[0]: I may be reducing the article a little too much here, forgive me, I really do think everyone should read it first
> Who said this was 'OK'?

You're constantly implying that they deserve it with sentences like "Maybe don't deny the existence of people and perhaps you won't get those responses?".

I'm telling you that's being a huge dick because nobody deserves to be told that they should be killed, even if they are massive assholes themselves. And now you're trying to weasel-word your way out of it without admitting that those tweets are wrong, which sure doesn't make it seem like you disagree with them.
> The fact that developers have to explicitly write out which module to import in every file where they want to use an external package makes it less likely that any confusion can happen

Feels to me like they are joking.

When you have to type out the name in every single file you have a chance of making the mistake every single time you're typing it; while a centralised approach allows one to concentrate on the added import.

One of the vectors of attack using this library is to create a Merge Request that slightly changes the name of the import in one of the N files you are changing. Good luck spotting that as a reviewer.
If it wasn’t a big deal it wouldn’t have been a paradigm shift. However, it was just a refinement. You’re adding things (relative masses) that weren’t part of this shift, they were later refinements.

The reasons this was a big deal were entirely human. It wasn’t religion: If you can accept the universe as a miracle it doesn’t much matter how God did it; God is just as glorious. It was power: the Church claimed the simpler model was The Truth and saw the new model as revealing a mistake and threatening their power; rather than seeing it as just a model.
