Thank you for your clarification.

And I just re-read my example in JS and I've made a TERRIBLE mistake ^^

`.every()` would be `foldl1 (&&)`, I would need `.some()` instead to have the correct behavior.
what about email is terrible for that? Email can do everything WhatsApp can, look at these 2 email clients:

A large truck will not be able to use a CCS charger even at 800v for under an hour. The Tesla semi look to be using a special connector with 4 parallel DC connections while a CCS2 is only a single pair.

Your going to need a Megawatt for reasonable charge times, CCS tops out a 400kw at 1000v and 400amps with liquid cooled cables and connectors.

BTW a diesel truck pump puts out about the equivalent of 6 megawatts after efficiencies are normalized.
Maybe connecting all the world's computers together into one big network wasn't such a good idea after all.

It is sad that the author and his family were excluded from the reliable and fast internet connection. Knowing that other places have good internet connection could bring frustration on them. I never was in such situation with the Internet but, I can sympathize. Now I am also in exclusion. In my country there is lack of good quality and performance laptops. I don't understand (it must be money) why only lower end laptops (bad displays, low quality cases, mostly plastic, lower end CPUs) are sold here in Poland. I feel excluded from the tech I always was a geek follower and a user (developer). Companies selling hardware prioritize markets with bigger purchasing powers. But it was not so visible back in the day.
Free Local Miami News
Hey everyone
Excited to launch a side project I've been working on.

The Miami Letter delivers free news and analysis from one of the most news-rich cities in the United States. Our letter is a daily digest of what’s happening in Miami delivered to your inbox every morning in a witty and brief design.

If you know anyone from Miami that likes news or is in the tech scene and would be interested please send them the link, thank you!
Absolutely. All it's going to take is somebody porting a browser to WASM. They just need to "tunnel" accessibility concerns to the "outer browser" until all of that can be completely implemented within the "inner browser".
I have the canvas element disabled to prevent fingerprinting, good thing I don't really use google docs.
Would be cool if Apple released a iPod touch with pager functionality that works thru find my network. Where you can send / receive short messages (even with 15 min delays).

Honestly, as someone who uses Haiku casually I find the absence of a beastly browser to be a feature. There _is_ a browser, one featureful enough to read Wiki and such, but not featureful enough to blow away hours and hours on Javascript-heavy social web applications.
To add to your argument: I've never encountered a discussion, much less a proposal to throttle all cars at 10 km/h. That would save around 4000 lives here in Germany alone and spare many more severely injured, scarred for their life.

It's not about saving lifes, it's about getting re-elected.

Then it makes no sense for the author to use the word money instead of data. And even if you substitute data, Facebook does not already have future data, just like they do not already have future ad revenue.
(googler, opinions are my own. I know nothing about this project).

I really hope this fixes the large-document problem. As someone that has to deal with large specs (1000+ page MS Word documents), Google Docs does a not-so-great job of handling them. I also understand this is why many writers don't like Google Docs to write the entire book in, as things start slowing down when you get into the hundreds-of-pages. I don't know if this is a javascript limit issue or a rendering issue, but if it's rendering, Canvas should hopefully help.
I use NodeJS daily, but I do agree some fundamental APIs are missing. For example, calling remote URLS is critical for most apps, yet Node only offers the "http" and "https" packages (and why different packages!). It should at least have "fetch" support and require installing the "node-fetch" dependency.

I'm glad Deno is here trying to push the ecosystem forward, at least with Typescript, and hopefully Node will learn from them.
One of the interesting results from psychology is that emotions are a complicated feedback loop from stimulus, around through the body, back to the feeling, but critically involving bodily response, not just states of the brain. I've personally experienced "feeling anxious" simply because my heart was beating too quickly for purely physiological reasons. (I've had some heart troubles.) Once I addressed those reasons, the anxiety faded with it. This is a handwave in the direction of this research and ideas, not an explanation of it; consult the web if you're interested in more.

I propose something that neither the article nor anyone else is in the comments so far, which is that we age, our bodies simply get less physical about the emotions. It makes it easier to be more level if your body is literally being more level, and the aforementioned feedback loop is literally weaker. Everything else gets weaker in old age, why not the physiological strength of emotions, too?

In medicine, the slide projector was very common, because they tended to want to display photographs.

I think that’s what drove the defaults of PowerPoint, with its white text on a dark blue background (see https://www.edwardtufte.com/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=... for arguments as to why that’s good for slide projections. I think it also minimizes contrast differences between typical “medical conference” photo and text slides. That’s important in a darkened room , which they had to use because projectors weren’t bright enough yet.
No, it can't be done in HTML+CSS in a performant way.
I think this is the real reason for the change as well. A few years ago Visual Studio Code underwent a similar change where rendering the terminal moved from using DOM to canvas. I never noticed a huge difference between the two methods but I imagine using canvas gave them a lot more flexibility in addition to being more performant.
The widely anticipated “quantum internet” breakthrough is finally here
$0.10 for a gadget like that is huge.

I work on the main chip of a gadget that cost thousands of dollars with high margins on the end product, and our customers don’t like it one bit when we require an additional external component that increase the BOM cost by $0.5.

There’s a person somewhere in the supply chain who’s job it is to question the cost and necessity of everything. If you don’t have that, engineers get frivolous quickly.

(It reminds me of the case, many years ago, where they asked me if we could swap a crypto chip with dedicated keys by a cheaper generic version that cost 1 cent less.)

>Facebook couldn’t explain in detail why ATT will harm consumers because, in doing so, it would need to reveal just how it personalizes ads — through observing conversions on third-party websites and apps.

This is one important factor that very few FB users realize. The secret sauce is aggregating data captured outside of FB, which is hard to visualize and grasp for most people.

More than once friends/family have asked me if FB really can hear via your microphone, and my response is usually met with blank stares: no, they aren't listening to your microphone, they know much more about you from the sites you've visited.
It's not you. Computer Modern is based on Monotype Modern 8A, one of the typefaces available for Monotype's ‘4-line system’ of typesetting mathematics. It's a Scotch Roman design, a 19th-century fashion that represents the nadir of typographic taste.
> Forte's long-term plan is to gradually decentralize its platform, believing that it's building the niche equivalent of Internet infrastructure. That also means its eventual goal is to dissolve itself, and it's not quite clear how that squares with raising venture capital.
This is off-topic, but I have to bite: "anti-RMS" is such a reductionist way to express this. Is our language so impoverished that we must be reduced to "anti-this" and "pro-this"?

Who's "the team", by the way? There is a maintainer collective and hundreds of contributors, and it should be no surprise that they don't all have the same opinion on everything.

For what it's worth: I'm a GNU maintainer and I don't want RMS to be the leader of the GNU project. I'm not "anti-RMS", just "anti-RMS-as-GNU-project-leader". I do think RMS has a voice that should be heard when it is about free software philosophy.
One feature I’ve needed to build into all my csv parsers is to be tolerant of some “junk” rows at top, and automatically find the row where the actual headers are, which might not be the first row. Do you handle this case?

Eg Mac Numbers app is really bad about this where it will sometimes insert the file name as a “title row”
From what I've seen, there are a lot of people in tech circles expressing anti-capitalist sentiment. However, very few of these people know or care how the economy works. This is very unfortunate, because I think it's useful to try and understand how the system works if you want to have any hope of improving it. Or at least, if you understand how things are trending, you might be able to better prepare and protect yourself and your friends/family.

The average person doesn't understand what inflation is, why it happens, how it affects them and how the government uses inflation to reduce the significance of its debt. The average person also tends to believe government inflation numbers which, IMO, are manipulated and do not represent what is actually happening in the world. For instance, home prices (and thus rents) are rapidly increasing, and housing costs, for most people, are the biggest expense they have to think about, accounting for sometimes more than 50% of their take home pay.
I work at a company with enterprise support and still found their contact persons & support completely useless.

We had a few training and introduction sessions with their people and it usually ended with us tuning out/joking about their useless slides and presentations (with "inspiring" Jeff Bezos quotes and brags about the number of packages ordered on Amazon.com that have 0 relevance for anything our company would like from AWS) in a private channel.
I would agree that companies have mostly settled on paying 20% as much for development, at the cost of 5-10x the memory footprint and 5-10x the input latency in the finished program. I think the web tends to get hit the hardest by that because if a company is targeting the web for an "app" in the first place, they've already chosen cost savings over performance and UX, so they'll be prone to make even more trade-offs for the same reason within the web platform.
6G is going to be devices we carry around becoming TX/RX instead of building out mmWave APs every few meters.
> The book talks about the environment - and damage to the environment can definitely be quantified and you should definitely be able to agree on limits (or sue) with your neighbours. A third party judge could agree on the decision.

It is much harder than that. You can certainly sue a local company for obvious pollution (which is must be visible in the short-term), but who to sue for the dying coral reef, melting glaciers, bee extinction, or the increase in the incidence of lung cancer? We can measure these things, but who pays for them, and how much?

Even Friedman agrees (implicitly) this issue is above free markets, via carbon pricing, meaning that:

> Who gets away with it depends not on real costs but on politics.
And yet loads of people still use it, and loads of people still recommend it... That’s what I mean by it doesn’t need to be smaller. It’s already hugely popular at the size it is, even though it’s a waste of bandwidth.
Yes with 10,000 psi hydrogen lines from trailer to tractor and expensive tanks on the trailer.

AFAIK the Tesla semi has all batteries in the tractor.

He is most certainly not my god.
Ask HN: How to ask for a raise to match inflation / CoL increase?
Inflation has been surging lately, I’m just wondering the best way to ask for a raise in this environment. Hopefully a raise that’s bigger than the 2-3% most companies give, because inflation plus the increase in CoL / housing has been higher than that.
For the apps it has this doesn't seem to matter; not everything needs pixel shaders to be performant.
I think we should invest way more in trains. They are basically long electric trucks that don't have to bring their batteries with them. All its advantages, with the disadvantage of being on a REALLY fixed route. We should only do last mile with other means of transport
I would really like Apple/Google Pay to get a copy of the receipt from the terminal. Paper receipts are a nuisance. The problem is that then Apple/Google has a copy of my receipt. I wonder if this could be done in a way that protects consumer privacy.
Huh - might as well use WASM then if canvas is going to be the display target.
Cosine similarity is a great little tool to have in your box. When you have a map[dict|obj] with key => val(float) it is an easy way to compare a bunch of them. Years ago I threw together an example in JS

Growing Interest for Linux Tablets and Panels in 2021
Raw calls to DOM mean literally nothing when you have to layout those nodes.

And yes, tables are slow. "If you know what you're doing" routinely becomes "let's reinvent virtual lists on an interface that doesn't have a single API to make this pleasant or performant in any conceivable way".
I think one piece of advise missing here is: define your value add upfront. There are 1000 books on Go out there. What are you bringing to the table that others don’t?

The other piece of advice I have is: hire an editor and fact checker. The last thing you want to do is put substandard quality content out there filled with bad grammar and errors. This post seems to suggest that by self-publishing, the author did the task of editing themselves. I would say this is not advised if you want the best results. Hire a third party to do this work for you instead of doing it yourself. They will bring a fresh perspective to your work and help you see things that you cannot.

I'd be much more comfortable with Apple being Privacy, Inc. if they kept their commitment to it, too often it looks like engineers got overrode by marketing. It's v unlikely a privacy engineer signed off on something, with so many side channels, with real world consequences, compromising a billion + iOS devices
PapaParse is a great library for parsing csv files. Whereas csvbox.io is a no code widget that can directly we installed on your site to help you get started in minutes.

PapaParse has no built is validations. With csvbox you can define a data model in the admin. The users can match columns, validate data and submit the file without you having to write a single line of code.
Given the increased debt loads on most projects, a 100 bps increase from ~0% to 1% could have just as much impact as a 100 bps increase from 5->6%. In fact the effect may be larger as a 0.25% -> 1% increase is a 4x relative increase in interest rates vs. a 20% increase.

It's possible that the only way out of the current situation is a steady inflation which reduces the nominal debt load.
How to Develop LMS
Yeah, this is a killer feature. Thanks for your feedback. Try to use it as well, it would be very interesting to know your opinion.
Take a server with sftp access, so you can mount it locally and browse with winscp if you need to. Put filestash on top and you have a nice ui. That's probably 90% of the original features

I prefer LibreOffice over Open Office, but I believe both are cross-platform (Linux, Windows, macOS). Then, I'd just use Dropbox or similar to save the files to for cloud storage. The only downside is no real-time collaboration. You can also look into Collabora, but I don't have any experience with it.

If you don't require Linux support or if the web is tolerable for Linux, I personally recommend the Microsoft Office suite. There's the obvious compatibility concern because nearly everyone uses those, they have real-time collaboration built in for both desktop and the web, comes with OneDrive storage, and will obviously be extremely future-proof. I cannot recall a single time any of the apps have crashed on me on both Windows and macOS, so I think it's pretty "durable".
HaikuOS, and the BeOS it is essentially a continuation of, isn't linux-compatible and doesn't have that as a goal. It has its own kernel and OS stack.

Its not really any more usable as a daily driver on RISC-V than it was on any other architectures like x86, but RISC-V support is a milestone because its likely the applications where a very lightweight OS like HaikuOS would be most useful are things that would fit more into the "embedded" bucket than the "desktop computer" bucket - like others in the comments have mentioned, think media kiosks, display systems, hardware appliances, etc. For some perspective, BeOS was purchased by Palm (the handheld computer company) before that whole corner of the industry started dissolving in the smartphone era, so thats the kind of device it was being used on commercially.

(Also, RISC-V isn't ARM - your mainstream ARM laptop is probably going to happen especially now that Apple has shown they can sell well, but RISC-V is still ramping up towards that point of popularity.)

This is incredibly destructive, an attack on the core technologies & interoperability of the DOM. It's highly concerning, highly scary that they would do this.
I thought it was pretty apt analogy... makes perfect sense to me. Comparing it to one criminal gang robbing another - yes!

It sounds like you are trying to interpret it very literally?
>you would hope the publisher assigned some people to check the work

Depends upon the publisher too, whether they are interested in publishing quality books or have a quantity policy.

>We all make errors, even those of us who do know what we're talking about

I was hesitant to write a book for a long time because I thought I wasn't good enough. I still think I have a long way to go, but I've grown better as a writer with experience. Feedback from users have caught many issues and helped me improve the content.
No doubt there's some of that.

Perspective is another other thing.

Once you start to see how the world works, and how complicated things are, you're a lot less likely to fire off about some specific issue.

Radicalism is the posture of those who want to externalize all the side effects of their utopianism, and when you're older it gets harder to not see second-order effects for what they are.
Damn, I didn't think I'd spend so much time on it, it's awesome. There are basic features lacking imo but it's great ! Oh and you can check my page here : https://mmm.page/Rphad.yolo

No it didn't. Lets not try to rewrite history here, clang started the trend of meaningful error messages, gcc quickly caught up.
This is the person that tried to jump through that window and enter an even more heavily fortified/restricted area yah?

I just don't see how this situation is comparable to other cases.
It’s funny to me how you think the reading amount hasn’t increased. I agree, yet what is the point of all those college degrees afforded - presumably as correlative of more literacy? I think this speaks further to your point about what people’s aspirations have turned into: mere fantasies.

Don’t get me wrong, I fantasize too, but I manage in eating a balanced breakfast. I think the obsessive component is completely disregarded in the realization of most “self-actualizing” aspirants. I can think of a recent read of Angus Black of AC/DC and how he turned his first guitar’s fretboard rotten from all the sweat. Focusing more on finding that obsession rather than fantasizing about becoming something you likely are not tooled for - say an author - will lead to a more satisfactory course through life. Otherwise, one is simply blindly and madly stabbing in the dark to achieve what someone like Bukowski will starve to do. It must come from within, not from without.
Not really, because I don't use Facebook. I'm avoiding the bulk of the harm from Facebook (e.g. the dopamine spikes, wasted time I'll never get back, feed addiction, emotional manipulation/experiments, etc.) by simply not using it. Until I start getting ads from them even off of Facebook properties, I don't really care what they think they know about me.

Sure, they now have my E-mail address. I guess that sucks, but it was due to some other idiot's lack of OpSec, and there is nothing I can do about it. I'm not going to convince 2,000 people to stop using Facebook, let alone 2 million or 2 billion.
Flutter web can use both DOM and Canvas, but the default is Canvas. I haven't to this day seen any disadvantages of using Canvas though, possibly speed on slow mobile devices.
It makes a hell of a lot of sense, even from a QA perspective alone. Canvas is going to be far more predictable as a rendering target than the wide swath of browsers they manage now.

The DOM certainly has a place, but if you've looked at Google docs rendered output you'd notice it left web standards behind a long long time ago. This is an application which happens to be served on the web, not a traditional website.

It's more Figma, less NYTimes.
