Apple's ToS prevent any kind of interpreted language in iOS apps.

> 2.5.2 Apps should be self-contained in their bundles, and may not read or write data outside the designated container area, nor may they download, install, or execute code which introduces or changes features or functionality of the app, including other apps. Educational apps designed to teach, develop, or allow students to test executable code may, in limited circumstances, download code provided that such code is not used for other purposes. Such apps must make the source code provided by the Application completely viewable and editable by the user.

Basically embedding any interpreted language inside the app is frowned upon by apple. But historically they have allowed JavaScript and Lua scripts to be embedded in apps.
Yes, silent-majority, exactly.

Because we (or this is me only?) were taught that expressing point of view which differs from current "course of the party", while may not be a subject of criminal prosecution (therefore, your freedom of speech is not formally violated), but leads to "deplatforming", you may lose your contracts, your job etc. "Cancel culture" instructs us that instant breakdown of all relations is normal, and many of those who break off relations with you do this not because they disagree with your point of view, but "just in case" to avoid consequences for themself.

Brendan Eich? Eric Steven Raymond? Media personalities like Johnny Depp, Joanne Rowling, James Gunn... All these people didn't break the law, they are not criminals, but they suffered for saying something. This is not "normal"! These cases are well-known and people will now may think twice before saying a word in defense of RMS because they are afraid! This is where "spiral of silence" comes from.

On using a lottery or requiring a profile...

> Scalpers could, over time, flood the submission box, profile creation, or whatever means we’d use to collect entries, and ultimately, you’d have a higher percentage of scalpers purchasing badges than before.

It seems pretty simple to require profiles and then do basic analysis to identify fake profiles. It’s not like they have billions like Twitter, they’d only have like what 50-150k?

I think it’s possible without requiring a link to a social media profile.
For projects you can do. Start with a simple todo app, an e-commerce app and a real time chat application. I find that building and deploying these will cover most general knowledge required to land an entry/mid level role.

Analysis paralysis is definitely a thing, accept that whatever your first choice is may not be right, but you will still learn in doing, so it's good to move forward.

If you are looking at data intensive applications, python may be a good choice.

One good thing with python based tech is there is less churn than Javascript based development.

Frankly, the pace of Javascript based tech leaves me burnt out whenever I dive in.

Although many projects use lots of different tech, you aren't really expected to be an expert in them all (even if a job spec may say that).

Start with one thing, learning enough to get going and move on.

Whether political violence is warranted rests upon three factors. Firstly, one must consider if you are initiating political violence or simply reacting - which sadly is necessary. Mussolini obviously had instigated political violence much before.

Then, one must consider efficacy - if it's going to be useless then why bother?

Finally, one must consider the presence of altermatives. If you can at all avoid it, then political violence is not really justifiable.

In this case, the three elements converged, and it's in those cases that political violence can be warranted if done for good. This isn't even controversial, people defend the violence of the US Founding Fathers which engaged in much more violence for much, much, much less.
Intel NUC DE3815TYKE, Atom E3815, for about 50€ shipped.

It's got a DDR3 ram slot and can host 8GB ram, along with a sata port and a slot for a 2.5" disk. It also has 4GB of on-board storage that I really don't care about.

The processor is a single-core atom that clocks at about 1.4GHz with a TDP of about 5W.

I don't really care much about speed for this machine because it will become a home vpn gateway running PFSense. The CPU has AES-NI instruction, and that's what convinced me to get it.

My current vpn gateway is a Dell Optiplex FX160 which is still an atom and performs okay-ish, but has got no AES-NI and no internal storage beyond a dumb 2GB disk-on-module, on which pfsense barely fits and consumes about ~17 Watts powered on.
The best thing about this line of argument is that anyone can be interfering with free software, no matter what they do.

How to Prevent Your Email Domain from Being Blacklisted
Get historical price data as well as historical sentiments / tweets from the past N years or so that reference the stock or company. Create sentiment + pricing pairs (so find a way to sum, average, or otherwise normalize sentiment - you might also want to make the price a tuple or vector) and then train your model on that: sentiment score and current price as input, new price as output. You'll probably have to write some additional tooling to munge and prepare this data and then feed it into the model pipeline
I'm sure mysql works perfectly fine for text pattern - but if I already need to maintain a postgresql db with backups and point-in-time recovery (or rent a managed instance) - not needing to setup mysql would be nice.

In a perfect world, sure, static sites don't need HTTPs. However, ISPs and other malevolent middle-parties have demonstrated why HTTPS is a must.

If you're just loading a single page, then yeah - it's pretty useless. If you're spending any time in Topicbox then the benefits of push updates and dynamic preloading pay off, and it's pretty lightweight as Javascript goes.

But yeah, in a perfect world where we had infinite time to develop it, we'd have the backend serve up a non-javascript static version of the content in response to direct links - if nothing else because it makes things a lot nicer for search engines - and then the javascript would load in and take over if enabled to allow you to keep moving through the site like usual.
The state I'm originally from switched all previous diesel trains to electric today, and is switching most busses to electric by the end of next year.

Additionally, over the past year, availability of FTTH with symmetric gigabit connections was increased from below 1% to 53% of the state, with the goal to reach >98% by the end of the year. Over 38% of the state already have switched ISPs accordingly. This is also necessary to get >98% LTE coverage by area.

Big infrastructure projects are still possible :)

> No web Gateway Interface like WSGI and Rack

Node.js wasn't created in a vacuum. Its http lib, and express.js which extends it (and Sencha connect before that) implements part of the CommonJs API created by earlier SSJS frameworks such as Narwhal, Helma, etc. and was inspired by Ruby's Sinatra.

In fact, a common portable API and standardized language that isn't going away anytime soon (JavaScript) is what draw me to Node.js, and I still find it's an excellent framework for lightweight web servers and b4f approaches. TypeScript and Deno, not so much.

Edit: also, while Node.js had its share of quirks in early versions (especially around the Streams 1/2/3 API), its core API is super-stable (and it better be with some 100s of thousands of packages making use of it out there).
I'm not exactly sure what you are arguing. You asked us to give you examples of frameworks based on your criteria ... which just about anything will meet these days.
What a Gambling App Knows About You

Because if a ticket is traded at $X, it means that there exists someone who believes it is worth $X or more.

PAX is effectively offloading the additional cost to the excluded audience, by either denying a ticket they would be willing to buy, or by making them pay more than they would have.

If the fraction of the scalped tickets is low, then it means that the fraction of people who are willing to buy a ticket at a price much higher than the going price can't be that large. If tickets were sold at $1, you'd certainly see A LOT more scalping going on, wouldn't you?

This would in turn imply that the global outcome wouldn't be that different. People who really want a ticket get one either way, and people who kinda want a ticket benefit from the more fair allocation system.

They usually isn't used as the primary means of propulsion on most bigger ships. It's also not uncommon for them to be retractable. If you need a large ship at a very specific position for a week, then you definetly need it, and that is a common use case as it allows for impressively accurate control. Heck, you could avoid moorings altogether and just keep it in place without it if you wanted to.
Another funny thing: in your view of the world the entities that made money off this situation -- the farmers and agribusiness -- and the entities that have continuously fought for the ethanol subsidies since they were introduced bear no blame for their negative consequences. The environmentalists, who were their allies initially and have fought them ineffectually now for decades, are entirely responsible. The environmentalists are simultaneously the only people with agency and responsibility in this scenario and largely ineffectual while the farmers and agribusiness are just a force of nature. They bear no more responsibility for their actions than lightning does when it strikes a tree. They are powerful, dominating even, but blameless.

Yeah, that's also my takeaway. I've also ran into this when debugging stuff inside the Dev Tools console, but it's not really an issue when writing code.
I'm not sure that's true. When you use react native you can update your javascript bundle and push it to an application already deployed to the App Store and that doesn't seem to be an issue. The application can check at startup if a new bundle is available, otherwise defaults to the local bundle.

See the expo documentation for details: https://docs.expo.io/bare/updating-your-app/.

Does Hermes use a custom bytecode or is it using wasm?
Hey Alex, very cool project! What made you pause working on it?

You are making a great point. There is an inherent trade-off between customisability and simplicity. That is not necessarily a problem though because I think there are different target groups depending on where your product is on this scale. I like to think of productivity software as a pair of shoes where everyone has their preferred size and fit. That also allows different tools to successfully co-exist.

The desktop application is Electron-based, so porting it to Windows will be relatively easy. For mobile we go native though and that's why a native Android application will take some longer.
Tesla is not solving the correct problem i.e. “how to build the best FSD car with the best technology”

They are trying to solve the “how to build FSD that works on existing Tesla cars because Musk has tricked a whole bunch of buyers into handing over money” problem.

Our heads constantly move around and have the worlds most advanced neural network trained over decades to understand objects and how they behave. So for us vision works. But because Tesla isn’t solving the right problem they insist on going down this road instead of LiDAR which is safe and works.
But isn't that running locally, using NeuralEngine of the processor? If they do not upload that info to their servers then I'm okay with it.

There should be no incentives to grow a company past a certain limit. Ideally, that limit should be established well in advance.

And in US, it was back in the day - but then, thanks to Reagan and Robert Bork, we effectively threw away all the anti-trust legislation that was functioning quite effectively for 80 years. The large businesses, of course, heavily lobbied in favor of that.

So, they have created the present environment - and now that we have seen (yet again) why anti-trust enforcement has to be proactive, they're complaining that it would be unfair to revert to old rules?

This leads to another problem that we (the science community) are already facing: how should we allocate funds between older and more established researchers vs new researchers? Or, who will be the next Einsteins?

If you only fund the more established researchers, then new researchers are starved out and more likely to leave the field. However, my belief is that new researchers are more likely to develop big new innovations than (say) the really old professors that are well past their prime.

You also have another related problem: given a large pool of new researchers, who are the ones that will be really good? Plus, there are other possible goals, like spreading the money around to broaden the base of researchers.
It’s not just the 16th notes, but that there’s 16 of them. 16/16, or 4/4 if you will. And the adoption of the tresillo (meaning “triplet”, but it’s 3+3+2) and the many variations you can do to it, it’s hard to make 4/4 sound “odd”. It’s possible to do (such as by changing the snare and kick drums to not be “correct”), but popular music tends to avoid that.
