I'm currently working on a PaaS product called fold.sh (very early days).

One thing I'm using that I've seen crop up on this thread is tailwindcss... I've not used it before but I'm really enjoying it so far. It's not a panacea by any means - it makes no attempt to help you organise your CSS or make it modular so you need to 'bring your own discipline'. For example, it's fairly easy to end up with inconsistent design because it makes it so easy to just add a few custom tweaks here and there. That same feature also makes it easy to duplicate information.

That said, for the first time I feel like I can actually iterate quickly on CSS and design in general. That probably says more about me than CSS but I'm having a blast. The fixed set of choices and short/consistent class names mean that I spend less time reading docs and more time iterating, which is great in my book.

Maybe it's an approach that doesn't scale well to teams? Maybe I'll regret it later? Can't comment on that yet but it has certainly given me a step change in CSS productivity.

The rest of the tech I'm using is all pretty dull, with one exception, which is that I'm using the platform to host itself (the backend at least).

Hopefully this doesn't count as too much of a shameless plug but it certainly fits the bill of a 'different approach' as I'm the only user right now!!

The (very basic) landing page is here:

Waymo works like a rail shooter. You cannot go where they have not built detailed maps down to curbs and such. It says so on their site. That is not FSD but instead a theme park ride.

While I own a Tesla model 3 with FSD I am more impressed by what is shown on youtube by beta testers than by anything my car can do. Simply put, Telsa only recently changed their entire FSD suite to include maintaining an active awareness of all labeled objects which in itself is greatly improved as my car clearly does not see everything.

Think of it this way, current versions work on a very short moment of time so and don't have labels for everything it can see which leads to missing parked vehicles (as in how did that survive this long) and more. My favorite example is my car rendering cones around a parked cable/phone truck but not the damn truck! It also had fun with a garbage truck doing a great job rendering the guy and cans and with the truck not always there but immediately real once it moved.

As for buying FSD, don't. Regular autopilot provides the driver assistance people can actually use on long trips. Which is, keeps you safe if you get distracted or worse. Plus there is still an issue with trade ins to Tesla, pretty much they were assigning ZERO dollars for FSD. So until Tesla provides a transfer fee or puts FSD at the account level I am never buying another one.

FSD needs to be at the account level. It would actually make Tesla more money as they could then sell a subscription for those who only need it for trips.

Do not flame a nationalist thing just being very pragmatic here from what i read / watched from a few documentaties. Just paraphrasing what I saw on the netflix series where one of the furniture manufacturer candidly asks a Chinese factory how they are breaking even at the prices that are being sold. The exporter chuckles and says , this is an investment to bleed the local furniture manufacturer (effectively get more demand and forcing other competitors to close , akin to customer acquisition burning VC money ) and become a monopoly in a sense.
This is very evident in PPE equipment , masks and on the rare earths supply chain.
It's worth spending just for the improvement to the average human driver. From what I've heard, policy makers are asking autonomous car designers what would be helpful on the roads, and the first thing they would like is just better road maintenance/design to existing standards (which is something the politicians are keen on because it's too boring to get any positive press).
On the other hand, putting one's phone number into that site, or any other utterly anonymous random site (what the F is "newseachday.com" ?) on a whim, is a mistake.
I dont like my LG G8 ThinQ... the fingerprint sensor stops working constantly until I reboot and I had to send it twice for repair because the USB-C plug was defective... and although I dont use it very much, the 1/8 audio port is also defective (too loose and the wire falls out very easily). And in addition to that, I cant install LineageOS.
True, and it's amazing what can be done with plain CSS, like `-weasy-hyphens: auto;` or page counters. And for LaTex-style math there are pandoc filters to generate embedded SVGs on the fly.
Holmes delivered nothing. She claimed that accurate blood tests could be done with much smaller amounts of blood and never even built a prototype that could deliver that.

Musk claimed that reusable rockets and electric cars were the future and people said those things wouldn't happen for 50 years. Now where are we? Saying that FSD is 50 years away seems like a risky bet given what musk has accomplished already.
Also if you've ever flown low over somewhere that's not like an airport that is modelled/textured separately to the ortho scenery, you see that the data doesn't hold up, so you'd need stuff with sky high views.

so could be used for flight sims and.... maybe an rts? You're not using that is as for e.g. driving games or fps games, and crunching Street view data into something usable would require processing and storing a lot more data

Yup, it seems it could work for both SDL1 and OpenGL 1.x, it's just a matter of writing a custom backend. Per README:

"Integrating Dear ImGui within your custom engine is a matter of 1) wiring mouse/keyboard/gamepad inputs 2) uploading one texture to your GPU/render engine 3) providing a render function that can bind textures and render textured triangles."

The backends don't seem all that complicated. Here's the OpenGL 2 implementation: https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/blob/master/backends/imgui_... - should be backportable to OpenGL 1.x.

I'm pretty sure that if someone was crazy enough, they could even write a ncurses backend for it. Rejecting 50% of the functionality for sure, but most of the UIs I've seen done with Dear ImGui were simple enough that they could be translated to terminal display almost 1:1.

I actually love this kind of design, where the dependency on IO particulars is neatly separated out. I don't see much in terms of automated testing in the repo, but I imagine feature-level tests should be easy to add with such design: just have a backend that lets the test drive input, and consume callbacks and rendering commands.
> "Future proofing" is almost always a waste of time

Not really, unless you lack the experience to know what to future proof and what not to future proof.

I've saved days/weeks of development by future proofing certain things, I've also saved days/weeks of development by taking pragmatic YAGNI in the right places.

Obviously this will only surface on projects that last longer than a couple months ;)
Globalization for Me and Not for Thee, S36E571

This happens fairly often on German Netflix. When the program's language is neither German nor English, often there are no English subtitles available.

International licensing is obviously complicated, so it's hard to say whose "fault" it is, but my suspicion is that some rights owners will only license the service to use the local language to prevent end users doing digital geo-arbitrage.

For example, the Swedish series "The Bridge" is available on German Netflix, and the trailer has English subtitles, but the actual episodes only offer German subs. AFAICT in the US market this show is only available for streaming as a purchase from Amazon.

FWIW, even though PostGIS is pretty great, if your use-case is primarily offline analysis and you don't need the data to be permanently accessible or writable, consider not using a database at all. You can do a lot, a lot faster with e.g. https://shapely.readthedocs.io/en/stable/manual.html and/or https://geopandas.org/.
Yeah, it was sarcasm on my side.

I honestly don't find the performance of many web apps acceptable, given the power of modern computers.
Well I tried, and half of each episode felt pretty fresh. Probably less Hollywood cliches. The action part, that is.

However, someone decided that half of each episode should be the main character's miserable childhood. He's a poor immigrant's child whose father is blamed by the local white rich for a crime he didn't commit and dies in prison, leaving our main character an orphan. We're getting shown that in excruciating detail.

They basically spliced together a pretty good action-ish/heist movie and a depressing festival movie designed to take golden globes or something.

At least for the first 4-5 episodes, because afterwards i simply stopped watching. It was either that or skip all childhood scenes, i.e. half of each episode.

I've been implementing simple caching for an enterprise system at many bank over the last couple of years. For us it has been very very simple.The system has the following characteristics:

- It's a big system with distributed parts. At any given time any piece of data might in fact be different in different parts of the system (before any change is properly distributed to the entire system).

- Often a single piece of data is accessed a lot in very short succession.

Since the system is kind of already built to handle the fact that the data is only eventually consistent, caching for performance gains have been very simple for us. We just implement a simple cache with a short lifetime. That's it.

Those are two characteristics that I try to look out for. Also, when I build something new, I try to build the system to be able to live in a world where data is not necessarily always the latest (as long as there is some kind of mechanism for getting notified that the data is out of sync when trying to change it, it seems to work).
Not sure why I'm getting downvoted...
Sorry that doesn't make any sense. The whole point of Termux is to make GNU/Linux tools available on Android without root by compiling it for the Termux environment, to run those packages from the user directory it needs exec(). You seem to suggest that it rather be android packages, for that you don't need Termux in the first place.
>Is it okay if the item is gone, but the cache remains for just a little window of time? If not, can we remove it from the cache first, then for real?

This is typically called eventual consistency [1] which is common when working with distributed systems, the same way you may write an entry and doesn’t become immediately available. This is often the case on my day to day work and you “just” have to work under the assumption that data isn’t the most recent sometimes.

I laughed, then had another idea: Rather than send the server one number to check, generate another 99 random numbers in the client and send them all to the server. The client receives the status of all of them and shows the status of the entered number. The server never knows the actual number, and the phone number address space is saturated enough that many or most of the random numbers are also real numbers.
Unfortunate as it may be, this isn't shocking to me any more. Where are efforts being made to counteract the clustercuss of a situation where the larger you are, the more you can pay your accounting team to diminish your tax burden?

> I bet Theranos could still be a thing today if Musk was the CEO instead of Holmes.

How so? The very basis of what Holmes promised with Theranos is impossible based on current knowledge. Musk promised something that at least had a basis in reality, and could be worked on refined (not the autonomous driving, but an electric car).

Holmes just promised something arbitrary and then hoped for a scientific breakthrough.

-> President Biden so far has not proposed to do away with these tax breaks, but he has proposed a second-best solution—requiring corporations to pay a minimum tax equal to 15 percent of profits they report to shareholders and to the public if this is less than what they pay under regular corporate tax rules. This would be a big improvement because it would finally require all corporations to contribute at least something to support the society that makes their profits possible.

Uhh.... Typo?
"Too few ideas." I don't think this is true. If anything, we might be getting too many people and not enough ideas, as a lot of people are making niche products just so they can invent something.

I don't have a good argument to defend this, because there's no way I could predict how civilization, technology, etc. could advance if we had 8 million people instead of 8 billion. But intuitively I just don't see it being much different.
Perhaps, but I think most people were looking for full autonomy.

But I for one will be happy if it works well in highways, or interstate drive, I think it would be great progress.
This is a PR stunt and likely fake. There is a huge amount of mud slinging going on in this area at the moment
I can't agree with this enough. LG failed to create a marketing worthy "series" like Samsung did with "galaxy" series.

From a developer's point of view there's still a shitload of information missing.

- Which platforms are supported? Is the only platform supported a Raspberry Pi 4?

- what about feature matrix with e.g. camera, gps, gyroscope, touchscreen, etc?

- where is the open source code for what? If I want to fix a driver error, what's the projects/repos relevant to it?

- why are there no official build images that are ready to tryout? (e.g. similar to lineageos's devices list)

- flashing guide is misleading. You cannot "flash" an sdcard. Flashing implies bootloader-like patching of the existing OS of a target device, not a copied image that I can run on the exact same host device.

It took me a while to find the the examples in the repo on github:

It’s unclear why compression is necessary there, except as a practical benefit.
But if you read more carefully what they specifically said was:

> Everything points to thinking it is quasi-ineffective on people older than 65, some say those 60 years or older.

So they said there was data that said it was ineffective, not that there wasn't enough data.
I'm not especially pro-Samsung, and I'm just one consumer and I'm sure that for every unhappy one, there's someone who loves LG or loathes Samsung, but I will never buy any LG product at all if there's something else available which is about equivalent.

They sold me their top-end phone, years ago, for a top-end price, on the basis that they would update Android in the next three months. It was a nice phone, but three became six, which became a few years - three or four or five.

Eventually they did offer the option, of course by then I was not using the phone, but I tried to upgrade anyway, and my phone would not upgrade. There was no support when I asked apart from 'download it and it should work'.

So in answer to your question, it's not about Samsung, it's about LG for me - and they destroyed all credibility with me - I don't believe claims on build quality, I don't believe claims about support, I don't believe any of their advertising. And I actively advise friends not to buy their products, when asked.
After a decade or two of these stories it’s clear this won’t change until someone offers a retail solution for everyday small businesses and individuals to enjoy the same level of “tAx PlAnNiNg.”

I find it really strange that so many claim that they need Ubiquiti and that there is "sadly" no other good alternative. What are people doing with their home networks? What are they comparing it with? Has anyone actually tried some of the mesh networks from TP-Link or other brands? I have one at home and honestly I don't even know what the admin management looks like because I never have to go there and do something. What are people doing? Is it that I am so ignorant to some needs which people have that they constantly need to tweak their networks at home or is it just a symptom of Ubiquity kit that requires users to constantly do something with it that now they think they need all that fancy management stuff because they got used to do so much maintenance work on something that should just work without ever having to touch it again?

While RDD is a thing, the root cause is the stakeholders' requirements for more sophisticated and complex sites (whether smoother page transitions, more intricate effects, incessant demands to spy on every user interaction etc). It became harder and harder to do all this with server rendering and a rat's nest of jQuery. JS frameworks arose to meet these requirements and became an industry standard, and developers responded to market demand. It's all gone too far of course, but the stakeholders were as much to blame as anyone.

This is very common type of brain/computer type essay.

It's based on incorrect and too narrow understanding of what computation or "being like a computer means". In other words straw man argumentation.
Yeap, it gets into a philosophical debate of what comprehension.

One could argue it's not about compression in bits but compression to primitives that makes sense to the human mind. But then the definition becomes to fuzzy because it naturally invites the question "Who's mind?"
>Holmes delivered nothing

What I am saying, she should have delivered what she could and promise to devliver better in the feature instead of failing to deliver on the promises.

She could have bought a small manufacturer with all that funding, slap a nice UI and iOT functions on top of it and deliver that. Continue to work on the original 1 drop of blood tests, maybe integrate it into the more expensive version of the machines of the manufacturer she bought, call it beta and use on own risk and the accurate version will be enabled through software update in the future.

Also, being funny on twitter could have been better strategy than imitating Steve Jobs.

Agreed on this. People pay you to solve business problems, not to write code. Not all business problems - in fact probably fewer than half - are solved by code.
