Tesla had a 24% gross margin in Q1. They made a massive amount of money selling cars. They also had a massive amount of R&D and capital expenditures. The emissions credits required R&D and capital expenditures in prior years so you can't say that the R&D and capital expenditures should only be charged against vehicle sales and not emissions credits.
I think negative taxes are a great solution. Provide people with enough for the basics and incentivize them to entering the labour pool. I think even ($1/hr + training + negative taxes) is much better than people being unemployed and 100% reliant on the government.

My etymology might be completely wrong. No argument there.

I've been keeping a log of the slow death of IE here: https://twitter.com/swyx/status/1260627626739130369?s=20

in the past year, major sites in all categories from linkedin to twitter to skillshare to microsoft to adobe have all dropped IE, with Wordpress, Drupal and Vuejs making plans.

The big catalyst I think will be the US government dropping IE support - it only supports browsers above 2% usage (https://github.com/uswds/uswds/issues/3877), and we are currently hovering at 2% dropping 0.1% a month https://analytics.usa.gov/

The Lift (1983)
It's a completely different arrangement for the camera. Here are some points:

1. There's supposedly a space/weight saving by not having to have a mirror and pentaprism to give you a viewfinder. Unfortunately, this space/weight saving seems to mostly have been negated by the tendency to make the lenses bigger and heavier.

2. The viewfinder is electronic, not real. This may take some getting used to. It may also be less practical in some situations and more practical in others. Consider when there's loads of light around (you're wearing sunglasses and the electronic viewfinder is too dim) or when it's really dark (the DSLR viewfinder is too dark). I'm told that the electronic viewfinders these days are really good, but I'm sure it's a matter of preference.

3. There's no mirror that flips up, which can reduce camera shake. You can even get most of the mirrorless cameras to use a fully-electronic shutter, so taking a picture can shake-less and silent.

4. The lens mount is closer to the sensor, which can make it easier to make some lenses (mostly ultra-wide angle lenses).

5. The focusing system is usually way better. DSLRs depend on a translucent part of the mirror to direct some light onto a focusing sensor. Mirrorless cameras have a load of split pixels scattered across the main sensor, that allow them to do phase-shift focusing. But because they're using the main sensor, they can do things like work out where people's faces (or even eyes) are, and focus on that.

6. The battery usually doesn't last as long as with a DSLR. For example, I went out one night and took 1758 photos on a single battery on my DSLR. You'd need more than one battery on a mirrorless camera to do that.

WebView2 is basically CEF for the most part though. I would love for Trident or EdgeHTML to be released as open source honestly. I'm sure there are complicated licensing issues that would prevent this though. I built and helped maintain a relatively complicated application that interacts via the COM interfaces of MSHTML (and the crazy print template stuff) which basically has to be scrapped eventually.
The operative word here is “pages”. Developers of statics sites should try to support everything. For full-featured web apps on a budget, the challenges of cross compatibility can be insurmountable.

I suspect that Vitamin D was collateral damage of the politicization that happened a year ago. People heard "Here's something that may improve outcomes" and lumped it in with all the medicines with questionable efficacy that were touted early in the pandemic.

Show HN: Hupreter – Create apps by describing them in English
Hi HN! Fernando here. A few months ago [1], I shared Hupreter (https://hupreter.com) with you all and now I am finally opening it up so that everyone can try it for free. The goal is to let users create apps and process data effortlessly, by just describing what the computer should do, in spoken English. We have made a lot of progress since the first post, and even though it is far from perfect, I really want to see how people use it and get feedback.

In terms of creating apps, it supports persisting data (you can store/retrieve values), if statements, while loops, etc. For data processing, we currently support uploading tables, calculating the median/variance/etc., plotting, and more. And we will be improving all of those in the coming days.

For example, you can tell Hupreter:
Given the table nba_players, calculate the average value in the column "points".

More examples are available here: https://hupreter.blog/

Thanks for your time! Let me know what you think, either in the comments below or via fersarr AT gmail

It is a completely different API compared to WebBrowser/MSHTL. It is akin to using CEF (Chromium Embedded Framework) for the most part. This can require rewriting pretty much everything that interacts with the browser currently as well as dealing with a completely different threading and event model in the new APIs (both WebView2 and WebKit/CEF/etc)

You'll have to set ISO higher to get the same image at f/3.4 as you would at f/1.7 on a smaller sensor because the intensity of the light is reduced.

> with all the hand-wringing going on about the lack of generics in Go, I would have thought more people would also complain about the lack of inheritance, but that doesn't seem to be a thing

Given that use of inheritance is typically discouraged even in languages that support it, that's hardly surprising. OTOH, generics are typically pervasive in languages that support them (and don't cause problems in the same way).
I'll admit I felt a less than positive impulse from the title of the article.

Probably the 'roasting' part reminded me of bikeshedding / every yokel with their own advice that occurs surrounding a font or button color or something .... that's kinda a horrible peeve for a lot of folks and came to mind for me.

But the article and ideas seems sensible.

Landing pages are hard, I think there's a lot of magic and weird theory out there on them. I did enjoy how focused and down to earth this article / his advice was.

Anyone who felt similarly I suggest giving the article a read, it's pretty good IMO. Probably not going to turn a landing page into a customer magnet but nothing really does that and I think the advice is good / I find it useful.

It's more like it is so weird compared to everything else. CSS Flex makes some strange choices, CSS Grid isn't, Some layout choices ignore W3C stuff, the JS engine is slower than everything by a huge amount, it's just crap compared to every other browser.

Edit: Oh and if you have a large webapp, the F12 developer tools are just a crashfest and are unusable so you can't even debug what IE is doing weirdly.

To be fair, on IE it doesn't clone the entire window, just the current tab into a new window. Still, that's my main use case, and AFAICT it's not possible in Firefox by keyboard or even with a single mouse action.

Just to add on the coordination point. Python has a large user base, and that's not to say larger user numbers equals better/superior. So the broadcasting of intention or direction is certainly welcome.

Not only is it a large user base, but a varied one too. Flask, Django, FastAPI, Twisted...and that is just to name the web frameworks! We have scientific use, research use, cli tools. Perhaps in some cases end users (developers or not) of those tools may not be aware Python is the foundation of said tool.

Anecdotally the Erlang users I've met have been incredibly knowledgeable and in tune with the language features and development. I find that pretty cool.

In my opinion, an argument can be made that Elixir is the most prominent web framework for the language, so developers can just keep up with that and not the language if they wish. Compared to the Python ecosystem. As Erlang inevitably grows in popularity, it too may fragment.
On the contrary, people who are self motivating and focused on productivity are likely far more engaged than those who require an office environment to get things done and focus on merely being present. The engaged individual doesn't ask to get back to work, they already are working.
It's also somewhat volatile, as there aren't guaranteed purchasers for the credits. Recently, one of the biggest purchasers from Tesla (Stellantis) announced that it would stop buying credits entirely.
So, I can see that argument following for something like Bitcoin. Though I think that part of that is because cryptocurrency doesn't actually have any intrinsic value. So an attack on, say, the Bitcoin network would also have the effect of devaluing the very thing you're trying to compromise.

But it does seem to be something you need to contend with when looking for new uses. Most new ideas people are thinking up have to do with something that exists outside the blockchain itself. And that, not Bitcoin, is what Azure Blockchain Service was really about. The merits of cryptocurrency as an application of blockchain are largely irrelevant to this discussion.

My sense is that the general pattern for most other uses is that the number of potential legitimate participants in the blockchain system is likely be inversely proportional to the overall importance of the thing the blockchain is trying to manage. Everyone can get in on something like CryptoKitties, but there are probably very few natural participants in a blockchain network for managing nuclear fuel resources.

That's the bit that gets me confused, with cryptocurrencies there is a clear link between the computer processing and the 'thing' you're representing (i.e crypto hashes).

With say a digital vaccination passport the 'thing' you're wanting to prove is that someone is vaccinated and the interface between the blockchain and the real world still requires a trusted central party(s) - whoever certifies the efficacy and safety of the vaccine, that the batch is legit and that it was actually administered competently and to the person in this case.

As with many of these applications there doesn't seem to be an existing problem with a trusted central party or immutability to solve

At least Rust has far less building systems than C and C++ building system jungle: C, GNU Make, BSD Make, Windows Make, GNU autotools, and much more.

It would be nice if Cargo had a way to build and link C and C++ dependencies in the same source tree as there are many C libraries which the functionality is still missing in Rust.
