Not sure about paged.js, but we use Weasyprint for invoices. It isn’t as advanced as some of the paid options (most annoyingly page headers are somewhat hacky) but it works very well.

My go-to for everything CSS Paged Media is [0] which has a nice comparison of supported features at [1]. They recently added Weasyprint, PagedJS and Typeset.sh

Building your own is probably the easiest of all the options presented.
Isn’t zooming in and having text reflow a feature, not a bug, of HTML? PDFs are pretty much impossible to read on a phone because of the endless amount of zooming in and out and horizontal scrolling (unless they were designed for mobile — and then they’re hard to read on a desktop). Never mind users on a desktop who just like their text large for ease of reading — their screen might not be wide enough to fit the text without horizontally scrolling.

As an author, my intent is that the content be easily readable to all readers. I don’t see why I should want or get to dictate the layout and aesthetics to my readers.
Some of the SoCs are using leading edge nodes - but most of the microcontrollers, power electronics, etc. are using 90nm+ nodes.
Because it gives an idea of what range is expected for the actual price. If someone gets an estimate of "about fifty bucks" versus "about $51.04", their reaction to seeing a final price of say $62.17 would be different. The first one implies that it's a rough estimate, while the second one doesn't.
There are cases where there might be a basis for a lawsuit (some professor at a public university hiding in Facebook)

But for the way the student leaning group organizes or the restaurant down the road takes reservation or what medium is used by the parents of my child's school class to discuss things is not a legal concern.
Like this (the demo at the top is interactive)?

I started out with Adobe XD in the beginning, but Figma works so well.
A few years ago I started an alternative to PrinceXML called ReLaXed.js [1], it's always been sufficient for my reports but it may lack some pagination/layout features that Paged.js may have as they seem to have given this much more thoughts (still wrapping my head around whether paged.js could be "plugged into" Relaxed).

I wouldn't count on any savings from the $1.5B. You would get more salmon than we know what to do with and you have to harvest them or the overpopulation would mess with the ecosystem.
If we could actually get control of our emotional part, it will be used for the military to create superhuman soldiers, devoid of any empathy and augmented with a rage mode switch that turns off fear and fills them with adrenaline.

Personally, I'd use it to deal with my bipolar.
Very few git tutorials explain how git works. That's the underlying problem. Using git correctly requires knowing how it works. You solve that problem by having a reasonable userspace, like hg, or by having a proper course in college. Much like you learn databases, compilers, and operating systems, you should learn about hash trees and similar data structures.

I feel like the statement "FreeBSD successfully used SVN for a long time without any major issues" is a lot like saying "I wrote books on a typewriter without any major issues." Or "Why do I need pointers/references/data structures? I wrote my code in QuickBASIC without any major issues." Or "DOS doesn't have memory protection or multitasking, and I never had any major issues" or "I wrote my system without documentation or test infrastructure, and it's never been a problem."

At the time you switch to correctly using a DVCS, your productivity skyrockets.

If you're using SVN, you DO have a problem. You might not know you have a problem, but you do. If you're using git like svn, you also have a problem.

I agree with you that many programmers have a problem, though. Just not about the root cause or the solution.

Maybe the right solution is to write a Python implementation of git with a sane user-space. The original git was written in a couple weeks, and I don't think it'd be more than a few months of work to have feature parity.
So how we should know is vaccine good or is it degraded? Any way of testing?

Not all batches should or could be tested but you could do random sample testing.
Thanks for flagging. It’s aimed for desktop users and a reasonable size screen (eg A4 or so), it’s not really a responsive design as it’s meant to be a tool to generate PDFs. So it won’t work in some browser dimensions (the paged.js code is reasonably complex).

That said it works in iOS as far as I can test. For some reason page numbers in table of contents not working perfectly in Safari but Chrome works pretty well.

I guess the conclusion is that this is aimed somewhat to desktop Chrome users as a specific tool for pdf generation.
This is one of the big advantages of the traditional banks -- bad things will always happen, but with regular financial system you can often recover from this. Sure, some times money disappear, but a lot of times you get it back.

And it is not as much as Coinbase vs Citibank, as much as it is the overall system design: if your crypto is gone, there is no recovery, by design. If your regular money is gone, you have a whole bunch of laws to help you.
There's a lot of of informal stuff that you also want to know/be aware of from those facebook chats.

It's not like the school itself requires you to use FB, but students desire to use it as a way of _our_ communication
> Are there other custom-printed keyboard companies I should consider?

Get a clear or white keyboard cover. As a last resort spray paint one white.
Only on HN is it obvious that "Julia" in the title refers to a programming language :)
Yes! I totally get this. I think it's akin to the "mind palace" method popularized in media.
I love these “insider dev stories” people do, especially on the older games I played when I was younger. Anyone have links to anymore good ones? It’s so cool to learn a bit about what went into making the games and who the people were.
> and you still need to consult with an attorney specializing in privacy.

Governments should be refunding solicitor costs to anyone needing GDPR advice. Otherwise this is just another way to add barriers. If you are on modest income you can forget about setting up a website in the EU.
So, X flips the nouns, and the server is the part where the user sits, and the client is the part where the data processing happens.

It used to be possible (and done) to have a thin client X server that would have the whole desktop running elsewhere. You could run a computer lab with a bunch of thin clients and a handful of desktop servers for lack of a better word. That was probably hundreds, maybe thousands.

Since then, though, X moved a lot more work from the Xserver to the clients; text is almost exclusively rendered on the client and passed as an image to the server to display.

If you did a classical experience, it might work ok to millions, but the user experience would have to be pretty meager. There's also the issue that there's not really a good way to sandbox different X clients; so nobody in their right mind would let a random internet server connect to their Xserver. Connectivity issues abound as well.
We have perfectly good analog inputs, I'd rather we start with improving those rather than open the digital 6th sense box.
Musicbee is the most natural music player I've ever used. Never understood clementine. Music players are subjective.
'Computers' are more like, industrial consciousness, though. What happens when we can grow brain cells on demand? (and support their function). Imagine upgrading yourself like you upgrade your computer. More brain. Less sleep. More hands. Armored skin. Photosynthesis.

Imagine you're a shapeshifter. You can copy any aspect of any living organism on Earth, integrate tech directly into your body, and the smartest people are coming up with new useful things to add.
Maybe in the dark net? Anyone check this?
> It happens because Epic Fantasy as a genre is, in part, about being lead through a world.

I don't see there a disagreement, it is "just" a question on how one is lead through the world:

- Are you lead by the experiences by the characters of the book, and you simply feel the depth of the world behind it, and you learn to understand it over time.

- Or do you have the narrator simply explain everything to you.

- Or does some protagonist takes over that role.

That seems a bit lazy to me, and not so appealing. Still, it can made for a good read, mind you. I definitely swallowed some of those books.
Lost Tapes of the 27 Club
If you're interested in a fairly long discussion with the(?!) guy who developed the stabilized spike protein substitutions. Have a look at this TWiV.

Good point about scrolling on mobile, I'll look into fixing that.
Is that true tho? Me and my friends use SMS a lot. But maybe other people don't?
Even their logo looks like a highly stylised two fingers.
I’m not sure about online, but I know you can walk into a T-mobile store with $15 cash and walk out with a SIM card.
I think other result from the article (and paper it links to) is with more accurate data simpler models perform better than complicated models.

This is a good observation because as the saying as "Garbage in garbage out" or "Model is only as good as data". It is better to focus on better data than spending time or improving models or overfitting complicated models to inaccurate data
A lot of very competent coordinated studies of drugs have been done. Oh wait, no it hasn’t.

We had a mishmash of variously competent and incompetent studies of AZ/HCQ. We have anecdotal data on ivermectin. We have some preliminary studies of fluvoxamine (excellent results, needs follow up); the large scale expedited follow up is MIA. It’s been over six months from the original study — there is no fundamental reason it should take more than two months to test it on a few tens of thousands of people. Ditto for anti-androgens. Camistat ought to have at least some effect (famous last words); this has been known for something like a year with no meaningful followup.

What’s needed here is IMO public health department coordination on studies, which isn’t quite the same thing as money.
Oh and I've added a few more UX design tools, Quant UX is open source.
> To me, opening a PDF puts me on edge. My computer is likely to slow to a crawl. It never renders correctly - sometimes it will slowly render each page, one at a time, flashing the screen as it goes.

That probably isn't the fault of the PDF, but the PDF reader you're using.

> Searching. Ugh, searching a PDF is a nightmare I don't want to even think about right now. Ctrl+F is broken 99% of the time.

Now this is actually the fault of PDF and how it does positioning of stuff within it - but about 50% of the blame lies with whichever software generated a shit PDF.
What do you consider the first principle(s) of programming? (2008)
What's a feature in one context can be a bug in another. I get where OP is coming from: when I zoom in and the text reflows, it's easy to lose my place. PDFs don't have that problem.

Also, digital, free-flow media lose basically all sense of space. PDFs are much better for finding a piece of content again later, because I can remember the location on the page and roughly how many pages into the document.
"Based on the numbers reported to the agency so far"

The key word is "so far", the article explains that Germany saw the number double since the reporting.

Reports it as 10x the normal occurence of 3 per 100k. (and I assume that's before doing further slicing, probably slicing for younger women would show even more impact?).

I'm all for vaccine but it's a tight rope to have a successful rollout in EU: https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2021/03/astrazene...

Maybe they could consider reserving the non-AZ doses to the most likely to be affected demographic.

(personally I'm lucky enough to be in a country that's not planning on using the AZ vaccine so there's no question, but rest of EU is different)
The Trouble with Earthworms
> […], we determined that 8 out of 12 (75%) of serum samples from 12 recipients […] showed dose response curve slopes indicative of failure to neutralize rcVSV-CoV2-S: B.1.351.

I may be misreading this, as English is not my native language, but 8/12 is 66 % and not 75 %, no? Or does the “(75 %)” refer to something else?
It reminds me of why Apple Pie is America’s favorite pie.

50-100 years ago when parents were deciding what pie to make or buy, parent’s favorite was X, eldest kids favorite was Y, youngest kid’s favorite was Z.

Parents instead bought Apple Pie, because it was in everyone’s top 5 favorite pies.

Top 50 is an average of all of the world wide listeners. No one’s favorite songs are in the Top 50, but they are the average top 50.
Why not just let them be a permanent liability on the business?

Public Lab: Indoor Air Quality Monitoring and Mitigation (2015)
Maybe that would work now (while nowadays some people look confussed at me that I don't have an instagram account) but at least ten years ago that brought a reaction like "weirdo" and people continued to use their group. In some cases you have a friend who relates messages to you.

In these days, where in presence school in many places doesn't happen students know each other only virtually, if you don't hang out where the crowd is, there is no chance of getting information.
You can use it to make mockups, to plan the layout of your apps. And then use the markup output to build the front-end. Makes coding easier.
I know game developers who lament the passing of Flash. Though the runtime had issues with efficiency and power use, the programming environment was great for games, in terms of being truly write once, run everywhere. Even networking had serious quality of life benefits for both devs and users.

The equivalent in Javascript is an order of magnitude worse in those regards. It's ridden with compatibility problems, everywhere.
Someone needs to do exactly the same study (same methods, ideally same lab) on sera from people vaccinated with all the major vaccines. The lack of a valid comparison study is ridiculous.
Two rats where having a chat about about whether or not to get the vaccine.

One rat says to the other rat, hey are you going to get the vax? And the other rat says are you fecking mad? sure they have not yet finished testing it on the humans yet.

Interesting, there’s absolutely no difference between justify and align left on iOS Safari. I wouldn’t have guessed that’s an unsupported feature. I guess it’s not common enough for me to notice throughout the web.

I think your identification of individuality and a measure of uniqueness is a mistake.

We're not individuals apart from others, the others are presupposed. The I is an abstraction in the sense that it presupposes social terms to understand itself. You need a reference, like culture, to be correctly understood as "alternative" (although 'peripheral' in terms of some specific aspects is more correct).

If you're not in a community at all, you're not going to reproduce.

Actual individuality is merely recognizing the exercised autonomy by an agent. You are still an individual even when you behave according to existing mores you did not create.

(The extra social esteem bestowed to relative difference is a cultural trend and a historical phenomenon. It does not determine our species, only our current conditions and predicaments.)
Terminal Man is a fun read. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Terminal_Man
In the vein of historical accuracy, that article repeats the assertion that nobles basically randomly pooped all over the floor in Versailles. Does anybody know if that's actually true? I feel like I've heard so many conflicting versions of this tale (yes there were essentially small mountains of shit and nobody batted an eye, no these were basically lies and gossip and fabricated by enemies at the time and framed in such a way that it is clear by their salacious tone this was not normal and very disapproved of, etc.) that I have no idea what to believe.
It's very difficult to find a common metric that is reliable, unless I have user generated inputs for that. Currently, it's based on Google search volume. Mostly for the domain, but sometimes that is not possible, and for Photoshop I have to use "photoshop ui design" to get a good estimate for how popular it is among UI designers.
I don’t often like to rant but XD is fascinating to me as an example of trying to work out what went so wrong in building it. Every time I open it (and by force its companion Creative Cloud updater) it does something radical. Last time the updater just started playing a loud buzzing noise (like a crashed audio thread). If I have open a file open too long (a few minutes), it freezes then crashes when I try to exit. There was period where I’d have to click through slow you-don’t-have access dialogs to a file I do have access to. This is all on a single project over the last few weeks

Adobe has brilliant engineers and talent and some parts of XD are well built and I want XD to succeed. It makes me speculate if it's a case of the original team being moved onto other projects or management exploring outsourcing

You may like the Adam Curtis documentary series "All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace", which basically posits that same thought.
It's a decade since this was created. Is QuakeNet still the biggest? Because it feels like FreeNode is now the only place left.
It is slow because the process of interpretation is slow (conditions, number and string operations) and because to achieve anything nontrivial in shell/bash, one _has_ to call external processes, which is slow. In Perl one calls external processes much less because of large amount of capable libraries and Perl is indeed much faster.
Whats the business case for less JS? Recently the company I worked for started a project where it seemed pretty clear to me would be possible to develop with very little JS running on the frontend. But I couldn't convince anyone of it because no one saw enough benefit from doing it that way.
Usually, if you have reflow, you can disable it. However, if you don't have reflow, you cannot usually enable it!
It would be absolutely helpful to astronomy and planetary science research. We have never in history looked at extrasolar material up close.

And if it is indeed relatively cheap, it doesn't need to be "fundamental".
How do you participate in a boycott loudly when you can't announce your lack of presence?

That's like protesting a party by leaving the room.
Some of those bugs are almost hilarious, but also a sad state of the software.

The reason why I stopped using it was because every time I exported an asset, the image was blurry for some reason.
That's an apt observation, actually. I used to practice mind palace when I had to memorize lists, and I do feel more comfortable when information is "physically" placed somewhere like a page, I guess it's all connected.
Any appliance that uses water needs to drain the water. A house has water pipes and it has drain pipes. The drain pipes connect directly to the sewer main. They are full of sewer gas. What everyone knows is that these drain pipes have “traps” that use a slug of water to prevent sewer gases from intruding into the house. What everyone does not know is that these drain lines need to be vented in order to operate properly. Usually these vent lines terminate outside. But you can use vent lines that terminate inside the house, with a special check valve to allow air to go into the vent but not the other way around. They are notorious for failing and leaking sewer gas into the house. If I had to guess, this is what your problem was. Did your kitchen have an island with a sink?
Why not? Busybox is an example of how to pack diverse capabilities into one binary.

If we have full-on adult genetic modification capable of the, ah, dramatic example you provide, we’ve certainly figured out a way to get around in-vivo test difficulties. For better or worse, any biomedical advance comes up against that problem sooner or later.

Therapies to slow aging have the particular problem that it could intrinsically take decades to show an effect, sure- but that’s simply reason to be a bit more ambitious and aim for therapies to reverse aging, which could be tested rapidly in already-old patients. :)
I'm seeing all page numbers as 0 in the TOC on iPadOS.

Thanks for further clarifying!

Being jailed or loosing the ability to work in a industry isn't necessarily better for everyone involved, if the person is actually normally good at what they do.

A monetary fee for causing a disaster feels extra well in place for positions that people generally take for their monetary compensation as well (board, director, presidents, C* and so on).
Does the 0.10$ include land acquisition for the forest? If not, the cost could be significantly higher.
I agree with most of what you say in a general sense, but the OP seemed to believe that the high tax rate for the neighborhood in question was a deliberate strategy employed by the residents themselves, presumably in order to stand out from surrounding neighborhoods. I found that specific scenario hard to comprehend. But until we get more details from the OP, which isn’t likely, we can only guess at the actual cause of the unusual tax situation.
I couldn’t figure out if this was satire or not. With AI and Turing tests, etc I figured maybe this could be done. I’m not sure it would be healthy, but what do I know?

I thought their problem was they didn't have access to vaccines over in Europe, not that they had a large stock to pick and choose from.
Staggered windsocks would be pretty cheap and simple I think, just as you’d deploy at airports.
