> Those parasites pay for

Yes, but I don't want them to. Of course, I don't have a choice. And the people that keep supporting them keep helping them work their fingers deeper, slowly touching and corrupting everything that I might still find enjoyable there. That's what makes them parasites. They take what's good and they make it worse.
This is quite a confusing post mortem because the overriding failure happened before the project even began. Even a basic understanding of the mobile market would lead you to conclude that only have a few thousand dollars budget is only going to lead to you spending far more than you make. This looms over the entire thing despite the other problems with the project.

Untargeted ads means less revenue, so if we go that way prepare for free sites going away or having to pay for some features.

E.g. basic Gmail will be free, but if you want something like Undo Send, etc. then you'll have to pay a monthly fee for it.

And these fees from the various sites will add up quickly.
Byte code compilation does extremely little about performance, it's all about the JIT. Hotspot was simply the 1st JIT compiler that was that good it was comparable to gcc's o2. Java is very much compiled to machine code/assembly.
Same for the first two, but not the last. It's somewhat common for craftsmen to work "off the books" on smaller private contracts. It's a trade-off because obviously it's hard to claim liability when you have no proof they even worked on it and no contract specifying the work to be done. It's even more common in larger construction projects.

Unreported work/income is estimated at about 10% of GDP: https://de.statista.com/statistik/daten/studie/20063/umfrage...
You're implying here that people can't get things for free without paying in some way and that those ways have to be the two options you present. You're wrong and it's also a logical fallacy.
Albeit because the global economy allows for offshoring to pinch pennies. I’m not a fan of companies treating developing countries this way.
Django is for receiving and responding to HTTP requests. If you want to do something that isn't that then I don't know why you would even use Django. In Django you can write views as functions where you receive the request as an input and return the response. What you do inside your function is completely up to you.
I believe Apple Silicon Build might not happen anytime soon because Python 3.3 cannot be compiled for it (which means nearly 99% of the packages won't work on such a build).

Terminal Integration also is something that may not happen, but Terminus, which is a terminal emulator package for ST, works really well & is a good solution (The best probably).

Personally I would consider any developer that advocates what this "movement" advocates as a developer that should never touch any production code. And this is the reason:

> Every engineer I've ever talked to or read about going frameworkless says the same thing: we ended up rolling our own.

Reading their critiques of frameworks the only thing I could say at every point was "yeah, but not using a framework is even worse".

I think this is nothing more than the "I am very smart" sentiment. Well I'm not smarter than (large, respected) framework designers. Most developers aren't. And it's not just a matter of "learning" but a fact that neither I, nor most other developer will ever be. And why should we be - that's just reinventing the wheel, isn't it? We should focus on our own specific domain challenges.

And yes, it means doing things "the framework way". Because most of the time it IS the better way, even if I can't realize that yet (oh, but I will in a few months).
If you can describe anything about my argument which soundly qualifies as circular, I'll concede all disagreements with you, accept that you're correct in everything you have said and I'll even donate AU$500 to a charity of your choice.

I think the general rule of thumb (which I don't think the op adheres to): if your code calls it, it's a library, if it calls your code, (as in you are fulfilling some interface) it's a framework.

How many hours does a PT6 usually has to work before it has to be replaced? How similar is a turbopump on the Raptor to the PT6?
That's not too surprising IMHO, I would expect this to be more visible to foreigners. I myself have never seen any type of low-level corruption in my home country but I learnt that also happens quite often, it's just not too visible if you don't know where to look at.

I'm not from Germany, and do have a foreign name, I guess that may play a role.
Where Is Evergiven Now?
I think parasites are those that want the web to be simply free and have free access to whatever they want regardless of the infrastructure cost of running the internet. It's the actual definition of parasites to feed off of a host organism.

Pay and subscribe to all the sites you read or video sites you watch and let's see how many sites are left that you read. Incidentally I subscribe to a lot of online news sites and video sites to avoid ads where they bother me or to support the journalism, but not everyone can afford this, especially smaller publishers.

> can we really trust them to

Yes, if they destroy all of their backups, all of their hardware and every one of their current AWS accounts. Then start entirely from scratch. Any measure falling short of that (and let's be reasonable, it definitely will) means that they're entirely untrustworthy from now on.

Of course having your home network controlled from the cloud should already have been entirely untrustworthy, so in practice it won't be an issue for their sales.
A second (or fraction of a second, depending on how long it takes for the magnetron to get up to full power) in a microwave works wonders on radios that can't be disabled or removed.

You don't want to give it any longer than that though because it might cause physical evidence of damage (arcing on PCBs, ICs with holes in them, etc.).

Microsoft also never managed to build a system that was secure enough to do e.g. banking on.

I love that there are different approaches like you mentioned and hope that they continue to exist and are not overruled by a central authority as you suggest.
Most frameworks aren't, at least not in the literal sense.

By definition a framework is mostly transparent. You can see through it, look at it and think "whoa, I am glad that it is already there" or you can conclude "hmm, I think this part over there will not allow me to do that. I might need a different shape of framework or maybe even build it myself."

Most so-called frameworks hide the complexity and do not explain their architectural choices. In consequence, you end up with suboptimal applications quite regularly. They do this by mixing useful tools instead of providing orthogonal features, for instance a specific language for writing templates tangled together with a MVC base.
On Mikrotik you can set the minimum allowed data rate, at least. That should kick clients with marginal connections to a hopefully better AP.
We are very far from computers in specialized computations and as a matter of fact far even to some animals in particular tasks. What is general intelligence nevertheless? It's an ill defined concept, there are just results for specific benchmarks.

Nitro is when you get the whole bare metal server and you need to run your own Hypervisor/ OS (which is why they mentioned VMware). This instance hasn't been available to the public very long (like a year or two). Maybe I am missing something here but I think a lot of comments seem to be mis understanding what this is

I loved to read the thread, but your comment is spot on. Marketing is not his piece of cake.

I would read the same story as: we spent only 10 million dollars over more than a decade to build a better product than Asana, who is bleeding out money and spent hundreds of millions. In the meantime we have also built great customer satisfaction, very good retention and an amazing distributed team years before the WFH hype.

You seem like you didn’t really read the article so whatever you say here is not quite relevant. Using a framework is not excluded and they certainly have their place, but it really does depend on the project or the organization the system is developed and run in. There are places where a web framework is entrenched at a core of a business and Im sorry to say it but this is really misguided. Just using a framework doesn’t absolve you of the responsibility of architecting and thinking a solution through.

Spaghetti with mudballs is not shy to take over code that happens tobe written in a framework, it is just a function how much care is given for a codebase. In cases where a frameworks help it does provide some structure that can be used as an organizing unit but it should not be followed dogmatically.
I would agree to the telemetry if all code was FLOSS and everyone could see what exactly was being transferred.

I don't think your comment was particularly clear.

Flow is not just a todo-app. It's a full project management app similar to Jira and I don't think they would've saved a ton of money not building an iOS or Android app.
You make a specific assertion like that, you should have at least a shred of tangible evidence. Believe whatever conspiracies you want, but it's not my fault you can't back them up.

Top Technologies to Learn in 2021
Although amazing, I am following similar news for last 20 years, and promise of tooth regrowth was as a holly grail of dental health, but on the other side it is similar like a nuclear fusion always 20 years away. Process goes like this, "big news -> excitement -> and then nothing -> few years later again nothing -> you go to you dentist for regular check and when you ask he laughs in your face."

I read about steam cell re-growth, electric arc repair, calcium filaments instead of "plastic" composts ... and nothing came into fruition. If it ever gets to the market probably I will not need teeth anymore.

In this type of economic environment why would dentists allowed everyone to have perfectly healthy teeth?
This type of product may succeed only if someone decides to go rogue like Tesla with electric cars, deliberately impacting competitors ...
You aren't making sense, again.

> And you can sideload on Android, and they chose not-Android.

How many people actually know anything about what it takes to publish to the app store? Developers literally aren't allowed to tell them. If you write the very sensible "this content is not available on this device due to Apple App Store policies", you app will be rejected. Almost no one says bad things about Apple because of the fear that they might be denied presence on iOS. This is a very large power imbalance, and this absolutely needs to be dealt with. I'm so looking forward to those antitrust cases.

> and you could do so on Blackberry, and WindowsPhone, and Maemo and Symbian, and they all failed for not offering what people want.

"I wish my phone didn't allow me to install on it what I want" said no one ever. They failed for other reasons.

It's okay to have an app store as a default way of installing apps. What's not okay is making it THE ONLY way of installing apps, thus robbing people of choice.

> Agreed, so people who want unsigned or self-signed code can buy macs, right? Choice. Nobody is forced to buy an iOS device

Computers and phones aren't the same thing, you can't compare them like that. I use a Mac precisely because it's great experience AND it allows me to run whatever the hell I tell it to. I use Android for the same reason.

> It's like saying "My email isn't spam" and ignoring that spam is a huge problem and people willingly subscribe to gatekeepers at massive effort and cost industry-wide to try and protect themselves.

Calling things "spam" or "not spam" is users' own choice. You as an email user always have the last word in whether something is spam. You don't have this as an iOS user. If Apple says something isn't good for you, this decision is final. You just aren't getting that app no matter how much you want it.

By the way, if Google says something isn't good for you, the developer can still distribute an apk from their website. Yes, it won't be as prominent, and it won't have a listing page, but the users would still have the option to install it if they want it.

If by plenty you mean a vanishingly small minority of twenty somethings, then yes you are completely right. They exist. Just not in very large numbers.

For fast iteration with pipes, using only basic unix tools, and arguably less risky to fat-fingering, I write it in a file, and use watch -n1. Easy to modify, temporarily comment parts of it, etc...

Also, I wrote this plog function (for pipe-log, or something):

plog() {
local msg=${1:-plog}
tee >(sed -e "s/^/[$msg] /" | cat 1>&2 )
}

That allows me to see what's happening in the middle steps of the pipeline.

Stop buying things from China - look for alternatives. Next time you buy something major look into where it is sourced. If there is something you buy a lot of from China look for an alternative.
Unfortunately that doesn't seem very likely. None of the major vendors (including ARM itself) seem terribly concerned about the open source world. Given they're dealing in 100's of millions to billions of units and the open source world (currently) accounts for perhaps low 10's of millions (all time total!) it's understandable from a business standpoint.
Yes it doesn't really make sense. And I am not even sure why paying the absolute minimal fees to ARM matters in the discussion.

More like the "human colossus", https://waitbutwhy.com/2017/04/neuralink.html#part1.

Individual humans aren't getting exponentially more intelligent, but the human colossus is. And it has started becoming a cyborg over the past century which is further accelerating its growth.
If I understand correctly, ultimately they could not overcome it, and after many dives, the computer succeeded in crashing the aircraft... it's practically irrelevant long the pilots were able to overcome it.

The base issue is that it was even possible for the control of humans with hundreds of lives in their hands to be overridden by a set of predefined instructions.
You definitely don't want to go reinventing the wheel. The problem that I find, especially in the React community is the belief that everything should be done in the framework. How do you make an API call in React? How do you change the page title in React? How do you convert a string to an integer in React? People create libraries that are closely coupled to React when 90% of what they're trying to achieve could be a plain Javascript module. This isn't just React, its most of the frontend Javascript frameworks.

I think the idea here isn't to abandon frameworks entirely but to use them judiciously and appreciate what can live outside the framework as much as what the framework already gives you:

"Nonetheless, we believe that a framework, when chosen, should be used responsibly throughout the life of the project. Continuously remind yourself that every tool has some kind of tradeoff.

Frameworkless means that you must give the right importance to the technological decision making and realize that the choice to develop a project or a single feature with no dependence on a framework is a real possibility!"

That is some impressive Proof of Concept and it's not even surprising considering who created it. Using a "terminal" like that would probably change a lot of how we work on the command-line
...which makes the distinction even harder in node, because it is a callback based language. Nearly everything is based on my code being called.

Sticking with the example of express.js, for me it feels more like a library since I'm still in control of the program flow, even though I need to adhere to certain interfaces.

Honestly no. Developer would not be paid as much as they(we) are if these things were neither easy nor time-consuming. And yes, a lot of learning development is the latter.

That's why the idea, still pushed as some collages "if you know one coding language, you know them all" is so stupid. In the real world you're not a "X language" developer. If you want to be really good/charge a lot you have to be "X framework" developer.

It's insane how quickly and well one can code when you really "get" on the mainstream frameworks. The designers really did a fantastic job. But it takes a while to learn.

Are custom FTS3 tokenizers disabled by default on current SQLite versions? The documentation does not mention it (and also doesn't warn of the security concern around enabling them). Otherwise, I do not see how the attack vector discussed in the video could be "fixed". The security guideline recommends disabling triggers and views, which is also a logical remedy, but seems brittle, nevermind also impractical for a wide range of applications.

The documentation on the fts3_tokenizer function merely states that

Prior to SQLite version 3.11.0 (2016-02-15), the
arguments to fts3_tokenzer() could be
literal strings or BLOBs. They did not have to be bound
parameters. But that could lead to security
problems in the event of an SQL injection. Hence, the
legacy behavior is now disabled by default.

However, it does not discuss any mitigations for the case where SQL injections are not needed, because the attacker controls the database file.
