When multi-touch first appeared it was touted as a Holy Grail of UIs.

The only multi-touch gesture that is in widespread usage across all mobile platforms is pinch to zoom. The rest of the multi-touch gestures are probably used 100 times less (maybe less, I can't even remember the last time I used 2+ fingers to do something on my Android devices, except for pinch to zoom).

It doesn't copy all the good things about the Unix shell though.

The reason people are comfortable with the POSIX shell is because you use the same syntax for typing commands manually as you do for scripts. But, you're going to have a hard time finding people who prefers writing:

Remove-Item some/directory -recursive

Rather than

rm -fr some/directory

People who write shellscripts are often not seeing themselves writing a "program". They are just automating things they would do manually. Going to an IDE in this case is not something you'd consider.

I happen to be very aware of all the pitfalls in POSIX shell, and it's rare that I see a shellscript where I cannot immediately point out multiple potential problems, and I definitely agree that most scripts should probably be written in a language that doesn't contain so many guns aimed at the user's feet. I'm just pointing out a likely reason why people are not adopting powershell in the huge numbers that Microsoft may have hoped for.

It's not the aimlessness. Real British walks are rarely aimless. They're often mapped and planned.

It's more the fact that apart from three weeks a year, British weather is relentlessly miserable.

So a "walk" - always in the country, because no one walks in cities - means shivering joylessly around an obstacle course of mud, rain, fog, marshy ground, drizzle, sleet, and snow.

For reasons I have never understood, this is considered a fun thing to do.

Do be careful, though, when collating PDFs with Preview. I've had several experiences where the resulting file works fine in Preview, but can't be opened by other PDF readers, e.g. Acrobat Reader. Share the file with a non-Mac user and they'll be scratching their head…

I have to do a lot of PDF manipulation for my work, and after some time I accepted, grudgingly, that there's no substitute for Acrobat Pro.

monero is very anonymous; also with bitcoin i read the term "pseydonymous" - they still have to make a non trivial effort to link an address to your real identity, it is still harder than to identify you by your phone number, gmail account/apple id and credit card transactions. (even harder if you generate a new bitcoin address per transaction)

This is a clear case of market incentives getting corrupted and not actually providing any utility. At this point it's not about whether you believe crypto will succeed at any of it's proposed utilities, people are investing because they want to get in on the hype bubble and ride high. And once you're in you have every incentive to prothletise before you cash out.

Meanwhile the rest of us get stuck with externalities - huge energy consumption, hardware supply disruptions, hardware waste, compute hijacking, enabling scammers and extortions schemes.

I don't think crypto should be illegal but the institutions enabling it should

There’s no such thing. You command-tab to an application, which can have many or no windows. The different mental model is probably the reason for your frustration.

Nuclear power plants have become incredibly expensive to operate. You are correct that some states such as NY, IL, and MA have provided subsidies, but these have been about saving jobs and tax base, not as much about the government. In NY the subsidy is for the Rochester-area plants, not Indian Point. Indian Point produces 12% of the state's power and an even larger % of power for NYC.

In Ohio, the subsidies we so large they led to bribery payments of $60 million by FirstEnergy (former owner of the nuclear plants) to the Ohio Speaker of the House. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohio_nuclear_bribery_scandal

Low gas prices have accelerated the decision to close down existing nuclear power plants as gas prices look to be low for the foreseeable future thus keeping power prices low.

As for new nuclear, I do not think there will be anymore after the Vogtle 3/4 plants are online. The certified construction and capital costs were estimated at $14 billion in 2017. In 2018 the costs were estimated upward to $25 billion. Analysts are now estimating an additional $1-2 billion due to COVID. With the estimated completion dates of Nov 21 and Nov 22 likely being pushed back. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vogtle_Electric_Generating_Pla...

A sister set of plants (Westinghouse AP1000) design were begun in South Carolina (Summer 2/3). In 2008, costs were estimated at $9.8 billion. Project was cancelled in July of 2017 after $9 billion spent and total cost to complete was estimated at $25 billion.

We do not know how to build new nuclear power plants even remotely cost effectively. The French have tried and it bankrupted their lead nuclear developer, Areva, in 2016. China has built some new nuclear power plants, but has not started a new one in a number of years.

One last side note, another item damaging nuclear power plants, particularly in the Midwest is the structure of the subsidy for wind power. Wind power tax credits are a Production Tax Credit (PTC). To earn the tax credit, the wind turbine must generate power into the grid. As a consequence, wind turbines have a tax incentive to produce power in negative price environments (e.g. overnight). Nuclear power plants cannot turn on and off easily so they end up paying to produce power at these negative price time. Not helpful for profitability.
Cool does anyone have experience of using this?
Needs (1984) added to the title, as it's a reprint.
I think what it really is is that the power user is no longer the target audience. It’s the 18 year old who wants a new flashy thing every few versions. Regular users think the same is boring and old, so the need to “change things up” is higher than ever.

Look at iOS (and to a lesser extent Android) for instance. It has had I believe 3 or 4 major UI looks in its 13 year life.

I think outlawing math is a very bad idea.

The plants have been retrofitted to be secure/safe. The retrofits can cost $100+ million and do not make much sense if the power plants are losing money.
i found a kitten crying under a car in front of my building 2 1/2 months ago. after i bathed him and fed him (he gulped down 3 helpings of food!), he set up camp like he owned the place, to the dismay of my dog and cat. i learned later he’d been outside for about 4 days.

i found the owner, who lived a couple blocks away, via his chip as well. she was in recovery from an accident and was reluctant to take him back, so i fostered him for 2 months. a couple days after i finally returned him to her, she tried to give him back to me (which i had initially suggested to do if she didn’t want him) due to misbehavior and prodded by an apathetic boyfriend. but after reassuring her and talking through training ideas, she kept him and so far has been happy with that decision. he’s a very energetic but also very loving little guy.

Except that its numbers are underspecified and cannot be used safely outside of a certain range. The spec explicitly states that the precision of numbers is not defined, meaning that N and N+1 may be the same number, and its behaviour would depend on the parser you're using.

The number one rule when creating a serialisation format should be that serialisation and deserialisation is predictable. It's quite remarkable that two of the most popular formats doesn't do this.

I'm actually surprised we haven't seen any major security issues caused by this.

>> [...] The disgruntled victim later said he had been sorely tempted to go to Warren's office, tie Warren down in his chair in front of his workstation, and then type 'delete $' twice.

Ironically, this did not render the way you intended because HN interpreted the asterisk as an emphasis marker in this line.

It works here:

... type 'delete *$' twice.

because the line is indented and so renders as code, but not here:

> ... type 'delete $' twice.

because the subsequent line has emphasized text*. So the scoping of the asterisks is all screwed up.

The worst is when the walk has achieved its natural climax and mercifully you're on your way back home, and someone suddenly suggests a new route to explore some unknown space adding unknowable length to the death march.

Even worse is camping. Once youve trudged to a treeless brown spot in the middle of the woods, set up a tent you're left with nothing to do. So what do you do? You walk.
It really is a great city to walk in. Often walking is quicker than taking the tube I've found.

One route (slower than the tube this time) I liked was walking from the Thames near Charing cross to kings cross (or was it Liverpool Street) following the line of an underground river. It's remarkably quiet and not that long, maybe an hour? At one point you can put your ear to a manhole cover and hear the river beneath!

I think some debate on the political level is very much necessary. From the way use it to the way we manufacture crypto. At the moment it’s not just sustainable (think environment, think speculation and so on)

Crypto / blockchain is great, its current implementation is very much lacking.
Because Windows users have long been dependent on Acrobat Reader (or lately, browser PDF renderers) for showing PDFs. If Apple had a relationship with a third party providing something akin to a system application like Windows and Adobe, they'd happily make a native equivalent and relegate the old product to the dustbin. Windows doesn't do that as much.
Have had a similar issue when adding git revisions to YAML documents.

The problem is that if a YAML parser sees a string like this:

"0123e04"

It interprets it as a number: 123 * 10^4

Our hacky solution was to prefix the revision hashes like sha-0123e04, but still this was quite annoying.

After that experience, I have stopped using YAML for any of my own configuration. Have started preferring putting my configurations in code. And when I don't want that, have found JSON good enough for my purposes.

Without you the world is a lesser place. What more reason do you need?
Prioritizing with Cost of Delay
You're right, but it's worth noting that much of the world is still on YAML 1.1, for whatever reason, so in practice, these are actual problems that will be encountered in the real world.

For example, Ruby's standard library only supports YAML 1.1. It relies on libyaml, which is not yet compliant with 1.2. Meanwhile, Python's popular PyYAML library only supports 1.1, and asks users to migrate to a newer fork called ruamel.yaml for 1.2 support.

Actions are awesome... but scary as soon as you have a public repos, contractor, rogue employee, etc. They seem to go against security fundamentals. Ex: Actions should allow going into default-deny mode for all basic runtime capabilities and resource use, and only brought back on via RBAC. Today, it's not hard to steal npm/pip/etc creds or get into people's corp runners. Having gone through the browser security policy heyday, this is deja vu, except now for exposing the server side and supply chain.

Ex:

- do not run on any event.. unless user authorized for that event. Same for actions.

- separate out policies and users cannot edit policies unless authorized to do that

- do not get physical/logical resources (runners, disk quota, long runs, ...) unless given

- default-deny network outbound with url safe-listing

That way only trusted users can run them, and a bit harder for them to get hurt when there is a surprising action that they run

The next level would probably be something like sandboxing : allow anyone to run an action , but a sandbox mode can autofail if violated, and have explicit imports/exports to lock down for how it gets used.

A lot possible.. but need to invest in the basics first..
