Can't argue with you there. I actually didn't know apps used Google for that. I always just presumed it went to their own servers.
Like it or not, that increased car traffic delivers more utility.

You can't have a car free metropolis. That's a contradiction.
Nobody is talking about what books you read.

We're talking about "What percentage of users clicked this button or used this audio filter?".

Import/export has its own distinct meaning that is unrelated to save. It’s common to almost every content creation tool that has a distinction between an editing format (eg .psd, .reason, .fcpx) and a publishing format (.jpeg, .mp3, .mp4)

Frankly. I was afraid of Stadia because I don’t want an advertising company being a dominant force in gaming. Google and Facebook are toxic companies.

I am far more comfortable with the traditional players in this space: Sony, Steam and Microsoft not to f* gaming like Facebook and google f* the web
Introverts can make good leaders but too often these "introverts are great" articles are pointed to by those who just want an excuse for their poor social skills and lack of impact.

Case in point, my last boss was a visible, forceful woman who emphasized relationship building. It took me a year to learn she actually is heavily introverted and spends her weekends not talking to anyone. She was an effective introverted leader but she was also just an effective leader, period. It wouldn't occur to her to share this article.

On the other hand, plentny of low impact people believe they have great ideas but they aren't able to articulate them to get any traction or even feedback. Rather than learning how to handle these situations, they chalk up their ineptitude to introversion. That's the kind of people I find takes comfort in these articles.
While impressed - its also scary how this will forge our future...
There’s no special status for Cellebrite: it comes down to intent and, especially, that judges are not computers rigidly executing code. If you do something which is designed to damage equipment used by law enforcement, a judge is going to ask what your intention was, not just throw up their hands and say anyone could have had those random bytes. As a real-world analogy, consider for the sake of argument how having a trap on your home safe might look if you were a) in a very high-crime neighborhood or b) engaged in criminal activities and had written of your desire to harm cops – even if the action is exactly the same (and illegal in your jurisdiction), I’d expect the latter situation to go a lot worse because you’re knowingly targeting law enforcement engaged in (at least from the court’s perspective) legitimate activities.

Since Signal would be deploying that exploit to millions of devices to combat surveillance tech, I would expect that to at least result in a suit even if they were able to defend themselves successfully. It would be especially interesting to see how Cellebrite’s use by various repressive regimes entered into that: an American court might, for example, be sympathetic to a campaign trying to protect dissidents in China which happens to impact an American police agency using the same tool.
That's interesting data. I guess I nerd-sniped you.

One use case where I think linked lists would be far superior would be merging two sorted linked lists. That can be done completely in-place with a linked list, consuming no intermediate memory. With vectors, you end up with an intermediate copy, either of one of the lists, or both. If you take the result of merging two lists, then merge it with a third list, then take that and merge it with a fourth list, etc, you can't really do this with a vector-of-lists representation that might come to mind.
The article mentions a series of movies that similarly make clear the potential depth and richness of animal lives, like My Octopus Teacher, or Jane. For anyone interested in similar stories, or resonated with the message of the article, I’d recommend Gunda, a new documentary about the life of a pig on a Scandinavian farm.
Do you have any numbers on how much fan capacity actually goes toward crypto mining? I would think its relatively small in the grand scheme of things.
The Programmer's Oath (2015)
Every time you hear about cryptocurrencies that allow fee-less, immediate, eco-friendly transactions, it's worth to wonder why dominant cryptocurrencies still suffer from those issues.

For example, one reason for the existence of transaction fees is to prevent network from being DoSed (overwhelmed in terms of processing and storage) by flood of "free" transactions. How can e.g. Nano handle this problem with no fees? This and other problems are discussed in section "V. ATTACKVECTORS" of their whitepaper [1].

Unfortunately, rather than provide concrete, mathematical solutions, the white-paper provides mostly "discussions" of why those issues are not really a problem or that some feature will prevent them (e.g. PoW attached to each transaction - which in itself is form of a fee, non eco-friendly and might be prohibitivly slow at scale). Those discussions are not researched enough to give assurance that Nano would function efficiently and securely if it were ever to get popular.

Blockchains are very inefficient and a we're still figuring out how to make them faster and cheaper without sacrificing too much security and decentralization. But as is often the case - there's no free lunch. And extraordinary claims require extraordinary proofs.

> Like it or not, that increased car traffic delivers more utility.

It rarely delivers enough utility to even compensate for it costs.

> You can't have a car free metropolis. That's a contradiction.

It's absolutely not, your assertion is outright nonsensical.

Car-centricity is by far the worst way to build a metropolis.
This is called ‘induced demand’. Surprisingly, the opposite happens when you remove road capacity - which is called ‘traffic evaporation’.
It’s why taking road space from cars and reallocating it to bicycles is often more successful than predicted: https://nacto.org/docs/usdg/disappearing_traffic_cairns.pdf

Success Spotlight: A Computer Scientist Tackles Myeloma
This reminds me of a 1950s training video from the US Navy that I once watched that explained the function of the mechanical computers used for fire control of the ship's guns. I found it to be a really handy primer on how mechanical computers function and may well be of interest if this concept appeals to you.

One of our local supermarkets could not check out until we gave them one, so we found some to give them.

For Belgium: https://www.bpost2.be/zipcodes/files/zipcodes_num_nl_new.htm...

Fun ones are 0612 (Saint Nicholas) or 1110 (NATO). We got great mileage out of 3 suisses until they went bankrupt.

Further random fact: The state and the postal services in Belgium don't always agree on the zip code. We found 1 location in Ghent where a monastery used to be, but it had been torn down and houses were built. The first inherited the address of the monastery, and hence had - on its own - a whole postal code, no street and no house number. But only for the postal services, not for the state (or the other way around, I dont remember). This location actually crashed the server for one geolocation provider.

Just to say, we are hackers, we're good at these games. They want a zip code? Find one for your country and feed it to them.
So they went for stability then.
little kids are literally saying they want to grow up to be "youtubers" now because they want to be the object of their parents affection, because they are be neglected by their parents for their phones.

And i know this is true, because ive seen like more than one photo of parents with their new born babies, looking at their screens.

We have to do something about this otherwise were fucked
Are you aware of these Googley actions?

1) people's location data they weren't aware was being kept (dozens of stories and nuances now),

2) scraped SSIDs of WiFi routers from...the world...via Street View cars, said "Whoopsie"

3) collected MAC addresses via free terminals and hotspots in...NYC was it?

4) Allowed multiple cross-storage access bugs where users have accessed each others' shit in Drive....

Anyway, I fear you are not an authority on Google's effectiveness at preserving customer privacy.
And Steve Jobs as an example of extrovert. Haha, keep going guys, great work!
Ships don't always float on mirror flat oceans. Waves wave around them which can create more buoyant force one the ends than at the middle. This makes the middle "sag down" and the structure of the ship has to be strong enough to take the associated tension and compression. It can also happen that there is more buoyant force at the middle forcing it up while the ends are somewhat less supported. (Also known as "hogging".)

The longer the ship is the stronger these forces can be.
I'm saddened JavaScript adopted "classes" rather than improving support for prototypical inheritance. For a dynamic language, prototypical inheritance exemplifies beauty and simplicity. Unfortunately, JavaScript's execution of prototypes was poor and, given the languages popularity and that it is/was most developers first and only exposure to prototypes, it has left the engineering world with a bad impression.
I don't think it suggests that at all. The engineers built ships that were as large as possible while still passing the canal. There were no plans to enlarge the canal. I don't see a mistake there except for the politicians who decided the fix the canals size then changed their minds...
If you spent several hundred thousand on a rebranding that comes with a very expensive font license, of course you want it to be used.

And frankly, it does make a difference.

Too bad those very expensive fonts never come with a decent web license and you end up going for a half-arsed substitute.

The problem aren’t necessarily fonts, but print-first design systems that don’t translate well to screens and interactivity.

> First, illegal obviously doesn't matter to Google.

I'm just an engineer and I have good visibility only in the project that I'm working on, but at least from what I see, the privacy policy is taken very seriously. All product changes are going through legal review, and I'm not aware of any instances where any illegal or even "gray area" changes were knowingly rolled out in production. When GDPR came into law, a lot of work was spent on making all the systems compliant with it.

I'm not saying that everything in Google's billions of products is strictly legal, but "illegal obviously doesn't matter" is obviously wrong.
From Rome readme:

> Rome is designed to replace Babel, ESLint, webpack, Prettier, Jest, and others.

Afaik esbuild only intends to be a replacement for 2 out of 5 of those things. It does that well for sure, but if parent commenter's main issue is the amount of different tools, I don't think esbuild will help.
Traffic/travel is a relatively special case though... We have a near unlimited ability to consume transport.

If you could get to Japan in 20m, I would probably pop over for lunch right now or Vladivostok for a Sunday stroll.

As transport improves, people work/shop/etc further from home. Commuting range is measured in time, not kms. So, capacity (eg traffic) tends to be the balancing force.

That's more than the typical Jevons Paradox, I think.
Paris is hardly the only city doing that either, and far from the first.
What you call hysteria was caused in big part by the fact they were going to use Google and Yandex for this.
It's great to see reference to hardware design in this thread.

Not hardware, but I have been using Nim for DPI-C interface with SystemVerilog for quite some time. Few weeks back, I started tinkering with Nim macros, and started working on a project to make the VPI interface more approachable.

This language is kind of a hidden gem that not many people are aware of in the HDL/HVL space.
Angela Merkel and Obama are introverts.. Bolsonaro, Johnson and Donald Trump extroverts. Looking at the past year that's 'nuff said.

It seems some countries have a preference for extroverts, and confuse loudness and random action taking with ability. Fooled by charisma – especially Western nations seem to continuously fall into this trap.
Thanks for the elaborate answer! You probably have a higher standard on programming languages than I do. I understand that Dart is a very basic language, and comparing it to something almost academic like Haskell will probably make it seem real primitive and stupid. Coming from mostly frontend/UI product dev in C#/Java/JS I've had a blast with it though.

I do agree that some common patterns are contrived (BLoC, json serialization via codegen, etc), but I'm not sure it's fair to criticize the language itself for this.

Also FWIW sound null safety is now the preferred way to write Dart (given your deps have adapted to it), so that part is hopefully solved.

Maybe not ban, but heavy regulation and taxation sounds good to me. Too much of our economy is based around ensuring high numbers for the DJIA and Nasdaq, which is not healthy for society.
I have high myopia and I had plenty of outdoor time in my childhood on par or even higher than my buddies who did not developed myopia.

Less anecdotal evidence is prevalence of myopia in south-east Asia where people have more exposure to bright sun than in Europe.

My pet hypothesis about myopia is exposure to high glycemic food like white rice or white bread that simulate growth just little bit too much that is enough to develop the eye few microns too big and cause myopia. But that hypothesis also has a lot of issues.
Super non-obvious to a lot of people despite good intentions, so good on Audacity for following up.

We were surprised w something similar in Caddy 1: managed sw can monitor, self-hosted shouldn't unless manually added with real friction and alarm bells, vs default on, click through, etc. Otherwise, it's a time bomb that will burn your brand for a long time.

Messing up trust issues like violating privacy isn't just about the immediate incident, but the ones you already missed and the ones in the future. Telemetry is a recurring footgun here.
NoCode fad or the next evolution in HTML/CSS?
First, my default fonts look great because I chose them and my preferences are superior to everyone else's.

Second, I use Debian and I have a fonts.conf that's hundreds of lines long, including dozens of lines of hinting settings because I prefer that some fonts use hintfull and others use hintslight. I don't have hinting settings for every font that exists, only fonts I installed, so when a site uses a web font, there is no dedicated hinting setting for it in my fonts.conf, and so it almost always looks worse than my default font.
Introverts need to develop a different style of leadership than extroverts. They need their own playing field.

I identify as introvert, and I was in a leadership role. My style was to develop the company strategy, then discuss it with a few select executives who I knew to be direct, honest, rational and usually right. Use their input to iterate and refine and then disseminate the strategy to the entire company.

I ensured that everyone in the company understood the strategy and understood their role in executing it. I.e., rather than an emotional plea to 'follow me because I'm persuasive', it was 'follow me because you can see the plan and your role in it and if you don't buy in, I am open to hear and assimilate your thinking.'

Perhaps a succinct description would be: An Extroverted leader keeps focus on themselves. An Introverted leader keeps the focus on the plan.
It just means that they spend less effort getting to know you. So instead of knowing a lot about few people they know a little about many people. It isn't inherently better or worse, just different.
In a city, yes.

In a suburb, the solution isn't anything except building more and better roads.

People aren't bicycling 10-15 miles to the grocery.

They should be, but, that's a different societal problem.
I'm not claiming to be an authority, I'm just commenting on my experience.

> 1) people's location data they weren't aware was being kept (dozens of stories and nuances now),

Location history is currently off by default.

> 2) scraped SSIDs of WiFi routers from...the world...via Street View cars, said "Whoopsie"

I am quite sure this was an honest mistake.

> 3) collected MAC addresses via free terminals and hotspots in...NYC was it?

Not sure what this is about.

> 4) Allowed multiple cross-storage access bugs where users have accessed each others' shit in Drive...

Again, I don't remember this story, and anyway, bugs happen.
I'd rather suggest refraining from using both terms. Why do people feel the urge to make the distinction in the first place?
Not only hardware. I think one of the things that can come of this are also big software innovations, because one of the things we may see are people reciclyng old chips and old tech. And lets be honest here: most people dosent't need the latest and the greatest dor daily tasks. They need more efficient software and better interfaces for achieving this tasks in less time. You take a look around you, most people who are not power users can survive just fine witha 10 years computer. They just need access to better software. The same goes for most business cases.
If introverts focus on getting things done what do extroverts do in your eyes? Just hang out?

There's a book about this called Quiet, I it. It's an overview of the like social history of the concepts of intro- and extroversion, and also research about these traits. The difference seems to be more about stimulation and arousal than like social preferences or anything to do with work.

Introverts get more aroused from the same stimulus than extroverts do. This manifests in a bunch of different ways. The social ones are most obvious because human connection is the most common source of intense stimulus in human lives.

But for example extroverts are more likely to be "adrenaline junkies" because they need more stimulus to feel the same degree of excitement. This has nothing to do at all with social stuff or talking or "getting things done" it's just a thing. There are dozens or hundreds of correlations like this.

The interpersonal and social differences are the most obvious effects, but they aren't at the core of what these things are.

It depends on what you want to optimize. Usually cities build new roads hoping to eliminate traffic jams, but city after city has found that there is essentially infinite demand for free car lanes in urban areas. There are only two things that can fix traffic congestion:

1. You can demolish large chunks of the city so that fewer people have a reason to visit, and spread development paper-thin over a wide area so that it stays beneath the incredibly low density threshold that causes car congestion. This is the approach taken by most US cities after WW2, however it has only worked in cities that have gone into economic decline because the places with meaningful growth consistently fill in more densely than cars can accommodate even with half the old downtown reduced to parking lots and strict zoning laws etc.

2. You can charge for the roads. Congestion pricing deters people who don’t really need to drive at a particular place and time from doing so, and thus allows the roads to flow freely even in urban centers. Surprisingly, it doesn’t take a huge toll to eliminate rush hour, as (1) the tipping point for traffic congestion is roughly the last 10% of cars that can fit on the road, and (2) it turns out that there’s a lot of low-value driving on the margin which simply stops when there’s a price attached to it.

The smart option is #2.
Leverage, concisely.
>That's like saying that building houses doesn't solve the housing crisis because they are immediately bought.

Makes sense. London is blessed with apparently empty high rise apartment blocks. 'Investment' flats, bought by foreign owners, who haven't seen their places and have no interest in them. It's just a safe place to store their wealth and they don't care if they screw up everyone who's actually trying to buy a home. Tax empty homes, should help things a lot.

Now, my idea to solve congestion is a bit different. For useless, bloated big SUV's, place restrictions and taxes on exterior options like alloys and paints. Incentivise smaller cars. That should help congestion a bit. And is it just me or are even supposed minis absurdly bloated and elongated these days?
Well the third bridge was built as a gift to Tayipp’s friends who bought up all of the land near it before he announced it as one of his “crazy projects”. It’s kind of in the missle of nowhere. My understanding is it didnt have any impact positively or negatively.

Speaking of which, whatever happened to the EV, pedestrian and bicycle tunnel under tje bosfora starting at kabatas which he claimed would be finished 2 years ago, along woth the 4 levant metro extension.
On the bright side (no pun intended), at least solar storms don’t correlate with our pollution of the planet and thus won’t get more frequent or severe as our planet warms.
I'm interested what you guys think about a visual HTML/CSS editor like webflow, but with the full customization of what hand writing code gives you.

It also integrates nicely with React, Angular, Vue, and imports Figma, Sketch, AdobeXD.

It's offline, no SaaS and no lock-in, and free to use.
