You're not wrong, but at the same time, if 99% of Electron applications are slow, then I have no problem calling Electron (as a movement, not a technology) slow. It is also pretty evident that default Chromium itself is a complete battery slog.

You can make an Electron app not slow/a battery hog, but it requires working backwards from a state of "what on earth is going on under the hood here". This is the inverse of building a native application, where that complexity is often introduced by you. I personally find this significant - you can teach someone how to avoid the latter, but it can require crazy amounts of insight to learn to debug the former.

It is 100% possible to build better Electron apps. I trust almost nobody to actually commit to doing it.

Also, particular yet tangential to this thread: apps like Signal or Discord which still make their Electron apps run under Rosetta 2 on an M1 are a nuisance. I just run Discord in a browser tab at this point.

These events are just as much about alcohol, misplaced trust in strangers, personally unsafe arrangements (sharing an AirBnb with an unfamiliar person), grossly disproportionate social influence etc. etc. as they are about "sex". In fact, even the sex the OP talks about was clearly coerced.

We should stop treating "tell folks not to have 'unacceptable' sex" as if it's a foolproof solution to all social problems. It just isn't.

A valid explanation, but not one I believe applies here.

This ban is not only not explaining how it detected unwanted activity, it is not explaining what activity it detected.

"We detected you faking ad impressions, though we won't tell you how we (believe we) know" is very different to "We detected you (or your app) doing something wrong, stop doing it and you will be fine. We won't tell you what you did wrong".
I’ve purchased a book from Kobo before. It used the epub DRM compatible with adobe digital editions. At the time (afaik) they didn’t have a way to load it on a kindle without breaking the drm, converting it to mobi and doing a manual transfer. These days I stick with my public library (which uses overdrive and in my opinion is fantastic) or amazon in the event they don’t own ebook licenses.
I find it incredibly funny that you'd find an innocuous question about someone's post to be some kind of sinister rhetorical strategy.

Its also very funny that anyone would consider the contents of a question about a post to be "putting words in their mouth". I am absolutely authentically curious about why someone would take the extremely funny step of appearing to rail against politics being discussed at work - by complaining about a "political" issue that's happening at their work.
"git commit" takes the -p (or --patch) flag for partial commits of a file, just like "git add". (Some people prefer --interactive, but I think the patch mode is significantly superior.)

> trying to squeeze every bit of efficiency out of the supply chain has spread every step of production far and wide

efficiency did that? not price?

why would American companies have moved manufacturing overseas if it were cheaper at home?

Nothing efficient about catching fish in alaska, sending them to china for canning, and then shipping them back to a california grocery store.

if expensive shipping becomes the norm, I would then expect local manufacturing to boom.
Partly the design of the core, partly the open source nature. Speaking from experience, it's really hard to push the envelope with ARM chips as they refuse to license them for FPGA deployments so there's not a lot of work being done there.

> Given that I expect to never see waymo brand cars shuttling people around, most likely they will license out the tech to companies who deal with customers or to the car companies themselves.

I'm a big supporter of what Waymo is doing, but I've always thought this is real end game for them precisely because of the reasons you mentioned. Google is incredibly shy of anything that involves physical support and running a robotaxi service requires a lot of it along with operations/logistics. They are no Amazon.
I don't believe this is true. If it were, I don't think it would be so difficult to get companies to adopt policies against hate speech directed towards any group. This kind of thing hurts everyone, it's not restricted to any minority or majority group. Every inclusivity effort I've seen has made an effort to include and help all races, genders, religions, ages, etc. I know I'm serious about that.

Is it just me or does it seems like a lot of things are headed for disaster?

The positive thing is that a lot of capital is floating around ready to be invested in a coming post-covid boom, but at the same time hundreds of thousands of companies worldwide are either already bankrupt or close to - then there's these shipping issues that seem non resolvable in the near term - and worst of all a lot of industries already seem way overvalued, especially the housing markets i many cities.

If the economic bubble bursts, then shipping slows down while thousands and thousands of companies close, and is bought up by megacorps laying off millions to automation and centralisation, while QE and other tools are slowly becoming unfeasible because of the gravity of climate change and a disappearing petrodollar hegemony.

So many confounding factors ending in an inflationary nightmare!

Is this take way too pessimistic?
Depends what you want from a series I guess.

I see F1 as high budget soap-opera/reality-TV with a racing series setting. I can't relate to the people in the same way as you might with the "dirty dozen" approach but the drama is there nonetheless.

I used to love F1 as an engineering research unit for the world. But once regulations started banning technologies - and even relatively simple tweaks! - left right and centre it lost that shine.

I wish F1 would largely throw away the regulations again.

Keep general safety regulations, a safety cell and 4 wheels, set the physical parameters for the car like size and weight with an 80kg driver, maybe specify some aerodynamic condition for trailing air and limit the unobtanium material use.

I think limiting $ spent should be done by full specifications of cars to be released after 3-5 years. It is only worth spending money to get an advantage. If all your competitors are going to have your research in a few years then why spend so much? Also, ALL the engineering fanciness is released for the world to benefit.

Then, when cars get too fast. Reduce the size/weight of the car, while keeping safety cell and wheels the same.

"Oh, your 2m wide car goes too fast? Try it next year at 0.8 the size."

Eventually it will be go-karts again. But of the most brilliant engineering.

Just briefly skimming the description - it does seem like it shares a philosophy with Amazon Silk Browser which uses EC2 for accelerating portions of the browsing experience. [1] [2]

"When Silk is run in cloud mode, it can off-load some of the the parts of the browsing and rendering process to EC2. In cloud mode, EC2 acts as a sort of cache plus proxy for browsing, and it also can dynamically take over parts of the page rendering pipeline from the client."

I'm confused by how hostile Zed thinks Drew is being here.

He quotes a post from Drew thanking Brandon for his remarks, and spends the rest of the essay saying the thanking is an uncalled-for "level of retribution", "effective slander case". But both exchanges between Drew and Brandon (the one in 2007 as well as the one in 2018) seem friendly to me.

My impression is that when linking to Brandon's post, people are usually saying "a company can still succeed by offering something that was previously possible, by making it easier to do" and "don't be discouraged by criticism saying it's already possible". They're not saying that Brandon was a bad person or that his feedback wasn't useful or anything.

Zed also makes a big deal about Brandon not being able to delete his post - but I remember dang mentioning that they would delete posts when asked, but everyone so far has agreed to a compromise of removing the username but keeping the post, which does seem like the best solution in a case like this (where the content of the post has historical value but the author might want to disavow it).
I use Calibre to manage my ebook library. I share it across devices (and with a couple friends) using Syncthing[1], and read the books using KOReader[2] on a Kindle. I get my books either from Z-Library or by ripping the DRM off of books purchased from Amazon.

Genuinely the best reading setup.

No, why on earth would it?
Because spending $500 dollars a month versus having the control to close a tab you don't really need to track is inane. Would you pay that recurring fee out of your own pocket to improve your own productivity? That doesn't seem like a reasonable proposition to me.

For at least a decade of my life, I was a 200+ tab person. Paying any amount of money to make my computer slightly more responsive versus the time I lost just clicking through (literally) hundreds of tabs to find something versus logging it--let alone simply searching for the same thing again and hitting the links that float to the top because I've visited them--doesn't make any sense to me.

As I see it, the "problem" here is not that you need to have 200+ tabs open at any given time. The problem is precisely that you have 200+ tabs open at any given time.

If you have the ability to keep track of 200+ tabs, exactly where they're located on your screen, and can switch back and forth between those and your actual work within a matter of seconds then kudos to you. You're actually a genius, and your employer should definitely consider purchasing this ongoing subscription for you.

We can thank the wars against poverty, drugs, homelessness, and crime for this. These all serve as foils against considering ones own class and how easy it is to move downwards in America without any support for those not in abject poverty nor consideration for the disappearance of community building locations, events, and organizations, in large part due to union busting.

It's not about being self taught, its about the phenomena of dabbling around a conceptual component in aOS/Runtime/Framework/Language that you aren't quite ready to commit to fully understanding and you just want to know enough to get something done. Quite often, this is a pragmatic choice, but if the thing you are dealing with is a central part of your system, then this becomes untenable long term. Unfortunately this is actually semi common and some very strange software gets written because things weren't properly understood. This article is the authors commitment to learn one of these concepts.
Ok, my sister was raped by her boss, was found in her appartment three days later my father, who immediately called a lawyer (female, specialized in criminal law). She told my sister that since they were only two in the kitchen with no surveillance camera, she couldn't sue but only report (its called "main courante" in my country) and "hope" that another girl is raped before 2039 and report it. The policeman concurred, nothing to be done.

I still shout "rapist owned" each time i pass his business, as do my brother and my father, my sister privately shared her story with his daughter on facebook last year (his daughter is one year younger than my sister, the creep), basically destroying their relationship, and the cooking school my sister went to directly called all female student and ex-student to tell them to avoid his restaurant. I also scraped social networks (only public data, nothing illegal) for his activities two years ago but only found business contacts. Each of them still received a nice email though.

I will move back next month, so i will continue my shouting campaign harder after the pandemic end and hope his business can't survive covid. Since his restaurant will be between my place and the place i keep my boat, i'm pretty sure i can be successful.

-----------

Honestly i can't say i will ever stop stalking him even if he had to sell his business. I'm thinking of sending him accusing emails on temp email accounts (scripted of course, my sister got herself back in one piece after a year and a half, and i even think she is now way stronger than she used to, i won't waste that much time for him).
The analogy is shaky, because 'crime' notwithstanding, good luck with getting anything from your insurance if:

2. you didn't take minimum precautions to protect your door (a 3-point lock is often required) and other openings.
Is the open source community harder to escape from, if you are a victim? If it's just one company, maybe you can switch. If it's open source, you probably need to switch jobs and discard a lot of your expertise.

"Insisting" on sex does not mean sex happened. If you're a shitty person and ask another person "come on have sex with me", and the other person says "no", and then you don't have sex, are you now a rapist?
Who cares if they’re actually right or wrong? The point of all of this is that if they want, under this Basecamp policy, they could cry to their management about “drewbug01 is being political and waving around his sexuality in my face and I’d like a politics-free workspace”.

And if that manager happens to also be jerk? Or even just not like me very much and want cover to get rid of me? They’ve got it.

It has nothing to do with whether or not you and I think it’s unpolitical. Enough people believe that it is so it is. This is the part that’s such a huge problem.
Hands-On Review of Google’s GKE Autopilot
The Evil Crow is ready to cause some RF mayhem
Perhaps because those involved in computer security don't see any end in sight. It's widely acknowledged that there is no such thing as perfect computer security, if someone wants to get in bad enough they will. Zero-days will always exist. Every single app running on a computer that accesses the internet is an attack route, as are all the companies associated with the computer and software and all the people associated with all of those (via social engineering, bribery, threats). Stopping attackers from getting into computers, especially consumer computers (and many consumers have critical jobs at companies, in governments, etc.) is not possible in total it seems. And once they are in they can steal files, expose them, and encrypt them, or control the computers and data on them (for blackmail or other reasons). So expect it to get worse. It's been on that path for a while and nothing has stopped it yet. Even the CIA has had files outed. Without a solution expect the USA Congress to be blackmailed, chemical plants to explode, all financial dealings to be revealed, unless the ransom is paid. What is there to stop it from happening? I expect it to get much worse before it gets better, mainly because it has only been getting worse and no solutions are in sight. Passing a law that makes paying ransoms illegal is not going to work when the alternative is lots of people dying or big dents in economies. And we can not easily send military strike teams or drones into other countries to attack back, without inviting even bigger conflicts. An offensive cyber posture would also mean you have to find out who attacked you, not always possible. And militaries are set up to fight a single enemy, or a few enemies, not hundreds of thousands of enemies.

It has indeed been amazing to watch how little discussion there has been about this as it keeps getting worse. Some people are writing warnings, especially those who are the ones who are supposed to be doing something about it. That seems to be a common tactic these days, if you are responsible for solving a problem print a warning, then when the problem manifests say "I warned you". Many problems have been ignored for decades this way.

Something tells me the same things were said about early automobiles:

* People have been solving transportation for millenia

* Horses and trains are real breakthroughs

* The complexity of logistical chain (gas, mechanics, paved roads) precludes widespread application where transportation is a basic need

* You need a fleet of other machines to keep it full of fuel. Oats won't do.

* It does not demonstrate a better solution to existing problems
I understand how it works, but I still think it's dumb.
That touches on what I feel, I think. In my own words, once you have something as an identity, criticism or disagreement very quickly turns into an attack on who you are; an attack on your being. It's not about the issue any more, it's about you feeling threatened and fighting back to protect yourself and feel safe.

Ultimately I identify as myself and that encompasses a small collection of things where I feel intensely vulnerable but also very secure in knowing that, relating to my experience of growing up, abandonment, attachment, my mental health, and so on. Attacking those aspects of my being is likely to hurt me, and is the point where I would decide whether this person needs to be present in my life or not.

So I would speak out strongly on the topic of depression and suicide, for example, because part of who I am - my identity - is that I tried multiple times and survived each time, and that long-term state of depression significantly changed who I am.

If someone made fun of me for being some bleeding-heart liberal whenever I talk about compassion or some spiritual experience? whatever...I don't care. It's not for everyone.
Story point estimation seems like a really popular approach to sizing work and getting to alignment on complexity. Curious to hear from teams that have had either a positive or negative experience with estimation.
Good that you linked the Wikipedia article. It has a good description of the case: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Park_jogger_case#Armst...

"In its January 2003 Armstrong Report, the panel "did not dispute the legal necessity of setting aside the convictions of the five defendants based on the new DNA evidence that Mr. Reyes had raped the jogger."[103] But it disputed acceptance of Reyes's claim that he alone had raped the jogger.[103][104] It said there was "nothing but his uncorroborated word" that he acted alone.[103] Armstrong said the panel believed "the word of a serial rapist killer is not something to be heavily relied upon."[103]

The report concluded that the five men whose convictions had been vacated had "most likely" participated in the beating and rape of the jogger and that the "most likely scenario" was that "both the defendants and Reyes assaulted her, perhaps successively."[103] The report said Reyes had most likely "either joined in the attack as it was ending or waited until the defendants had moved on to their next victims before descending upon her himself, raping her and inflicting upon her the brutal injuries that almost caused her death."[103]"
