Is what you're describing any different from just bookmarking all the tabs in a window to a new folder and closing the window?

That's what I do. And then just open the whole folder as tabs in a new window when I go back to something.

Then the advantage is that I can give the folder a name, a date, tags, nest it under a grouping of folders, etc.

Plus I can back up bookmarks which gives me huge peace of mind. I've been burned before by my browser "forgetting" my tabs before on restart, as well as browser sync bugs, so I don't put a ton of faith in the longevity of tabs.

Even if tabs are sleeping, if you have 100 different mini-projects going on from the past year, do you have... 100 different windows open all the time? How do you even find the window you need?
I also think that in the pre-internet world the amount of effort to obtain such public information acted as an effective filter. You actively had to go looking for this information and that involved in-person visits to government buildings and filing paperwork. That gave average people a reasonable degree of cover.
I agree. I know plenty unskilled workers who make more money than even senior devs. They are all self employed though.

I live in New Zealand, definitely a first world country with first world infrastructure. Ping times to US East or Europe are over 300ms right now from my home[1].

My old business had users in countries around the world, and the assets were highly optimised for speed. However adding CloudFlare (a) significantly sped up our service to clients, especially those in Asian countries, and (b) significantly improved reliability of connections because CloudFlare have their own dedicated network links between countries and/or optimised for reliability.

It doesn't matter what you believe. A significant chunk of people will just assume guilt and repeat/propagate the information, whether through naivete or malice. Having a large number of people saying 'X is a criminal' based solely on the existence of the mugshot is a problem.

Some people do it because it fits a political agenda, other people are credulous fools who believe they can see evil by looking at the eyes in a photograph, and of course mugshots are like passport photographs in that they have unflattering direct lighting/straight on posture, subjects are discouraged from smiling etc.

I'm currently trying to solve this and more in an application called Cleave.

https://cleave.app

Cleave lets users persist OS state as a "context" - saving and loading open applications, their windows (and their positions), tabs, open files/documents and so on. Think of it as a workspace or project manager from an IDE, but on the OS-level.

I started working on it because of frequent multitasking of heavy work with limited resources; Made it because I wanted to switch between studying, working, reading, looking for an apartment, etc. without manually managing all states or consuming all resources.

I'll release an Open Beta (macOS) as soon as I finish license verification and delta updates, but I keep getting sidetracked...

Stopped reading after first line 'Advertisers are motivated by a singular goal, and that is to turn every facet of human existence into an opportunity to show you ads.'

I realized this is click bait, but it could still be improved with some subtlety. Guide the reader to the conclusions you want with information instead of starting off with this nonsense.
You are kind of proving my point by reading 'unless absolutely necessary' (meaning: they don't want to use a mask and they don't most of the time, except when there's a rule saying they should) as 'THEY TOTALLY WANT TO KEEP USING A MASK!!!'.
I can't see that being very popular. Even if it doesn't actually cost you much in absolute terms, billing per page will make people a lot more reluctant to explore new content.

For context, this type of advertising falls into "digital out of home" or DOOH. DOOH is going to be the next big thing (connected TV like roku/etc is the current big thing). Consider how antiquated a normal billboard is, when you could make it digital and get many more features.

This vendor has a cool map you can see of all their screens. Most of them are the small screens on gas stations/stores/etc, but some are billboards. They recently signed a deal to put digital signage on top of ubers and taxis (but not inside the car). I'm not affiliated but attended a pitch of theirs.

> They would need your private key and your hard drive?

Most people serious about cryptocurrencies do not trust computers/harddrives anymore since years. They use "hardware wallets", which are HSMs with a very small attack surface. It's not impossible that hacks happen but there's a gap so wide between "a Windows 10 computer running some Bitcoin software wallet" and "a Ledger Nano S" hardware wallet that it's basically two different worlds.

Think a Yubikey (with a tiny screen) to cryptographically sign your transaction.

$5 wrench attack still works but compromising your private key(s) by "logging every OS keystroke in the name of telemetry" or "using one of the tens JavaScript 0-day from today" doesn't.

The idea behind these cryptocurrencies hardware wallets is that ANY computer you connect them to is compromised (which is precisely why you're using an hardware wallet) and that, yet, that's not a problem.

I have to say: it's not a bad way to think about computer (in)security.
Either way you're ignoring human nature. The other human nature is the nature of power to corrupt, ignored in reducing the transparency of the judicial and executive processes. I can't think of a single historical or contemporary example of government secrecy which has produced morally consistent outcomes. I do not think such things can exist without eventually corrupting the process they serve.

As I said below in another thread, banning discrimination on the basis of judicial and criminal history would immediately and obviously "change human nature" because the practice of discrimination on the basis of these histories occurs openly as a best practice under standing precedent in almost every area of society.

It's literally on application forms -- how can you NOT think that requiring "the question" to be absent from the form would change the conversation about this kind of discrimination?
This is a classic.

It usually takes an experienced engineer a 15 minutes tour around a building watching the machines to know exactly how you have done anything. It takes years an millions of dollars for your company to iterate on the specific layout, from the infinite possibilities.

I have seen so many derivatives of this system, like courting/buying the gatekeeper with expensive gifts (laptops, very cheap vacations) or compliments in order to gain access.

It is relevant here to talk about what Apple did with DropBox. They invited those guys to a tour around Apple HQ(probably with bed sheets over machines), but Steve Jobs got angry when the people of DropBox did not reciprocate and invited Apple folks to a neutral place instead.

It became clear Apple just wanted to know all the internals in order to copy them strait, just with mountains of money.
I have the same experience.

I was given a MacBook pro at my last job and had to request a ThinkPad after a few weeks - the lack of function keys alone was enough to drive me mad, but countless issues with docker and even homebrew pushed me over the edge. For context, I _used_ to be a hardcore mac fanboy and did all my development work on it, but the macOS of today doesn't feel the same as the OSX of yesterday - at least not to me.

Linux desktop environments definitely still suck, and there's always some quirks with hardware but for the work related tasks once it's initially set up, it's always rock solid.

XMTP Hello World
What type of information was shared from the Trump campaign? Polling data and strategy to beat Hillary Clinton. Gates has testified that the polling data was non-sensitive and also dated. I think the only real significant claim the Senate report does is when says the DNC leaks of 2016 was done by GRU and then sent to WikiLeaks and report says "Kilimnik may have been connected to the GRU's hack and leak operation targeting the 2016 U.S. election", but that proof builds on speculation based redacted material in the Senate report.

Big difference between electric motors and piston engines is sliding friction. Even the journal bearings in a piston engine are only partially lubricated. Which means they wear wear quickly. Compare with fully lubricated bearings which have a service life that's 10-100 times longer.

> Beyond reaching out in their communities or advertising

Those are your two best options.

The only other things I can think of is to provide an incentive for your existing users to refer people or start reaching out into adjacent markets to see if you can pull some people into your niche.

You could also look into reaching out to any influencers in your niche. If it is a small market, this could be a very economical route to go.

> getting really seriously injured and/or killed/driven to death.

No one is getting seriously injured, beyond the technical medical jargon used and some mentions of MRIs

And I have been keeping an eye on this whole affair and have yet to read of any death or permanent injury, where did you read of supposed deaths?
I have had Starlink for about 4 months now. I live in Washington and have a lot of trees on my property. Most are about 40 feet tall. The firs are around 80 feet tall. There's damn near nowhere to put the dish for me. It took me weeks to get an optimal setup, have an arborist come and top the trees that I "think" were blocking the signal, figure out how to mount a pole on my house, guess for the best placement...

That's the real problem, you really have no way to know what's going to make the signal better until you try it. All you get is an app that uses your camera to show you possible obstructions. The app also says "No Obstructions" constantly, but the debug data that you can get from the app shows obstructions all the time.

And you can't use the app to check for obstructions for where you "might" place the dish. I put mine up on a pole 10 feet above my roof. How am I supposed to stand 10 feet above my roof and use the camera app to check for obstructions in mid air?

It's a huge guessing game, and a real shit show to get a proper mount working. If your property is flat, and you have no trees, it's probably easy. But trees 40-80 feet away from your house will block the signal. So be prepared for a lot of work to get it set up.
I am perpetually surprised at this. I remember 24 years ago a colleague of mine had the butchered remains of an A1200 with all sorts of daughter boards literally taped inside a PC case. Just before covid hit i by chance bumped into him and yep he was still using it apparently.

I have test equipment that’s 50 years old in active service so I suppose the mantra of “if it works and makes you happy, use it” is still valid.
So they can't use the obvious name Linux Subsystem for Windows but that still leaves other possible names.

GamesRoom.io is an experimental web app I've made to combine video chat and board games, initially just for one-on-one play.

It was, unsurprisingly, prompted by pandemic-related lockdowns: I wanted to give my son a way of carrying on learning draughts and chess with his Grandpa.

It's built with Svelte and Twilio’s Programmable Video products -- P2P rooms and JavaScript SDK. I've also used a couple of JS libraries to provide some of the game logic.

My son has been using it for months to play draughts against his relatives and friends.

I've found he'll happily play for over an hour on this with his Grandpa but will get bored with a normal zoom call within ~5 mins and leave us to make his excuses ..!
Well, the parent did add a "for many roles" caveat. A CS degree is almost certainly better for a multi-decade career arc, and it's a solid foundation for many different career paths, but I don't think you need to have people with CS degrees in every role that involves writing code.

I'd be surprised if the bootcamp hires weren't better in the short term for specialized lower-level roles using newer tech. But many of the bootcamp learnings will be obsolete in 5 years; CS fundamentals are obviously more timeless.
There's almost a year between the time we originally went into lockdown to 'flatten the curve' and the time a significant part of the population got vaccinated. You can't pretend that not using a mask now - once someone is vaccinated - is the same as not using a mask back then.
This poster gets it.

I use macOS because there's about 1/10 the likelihood that I'll have to burn half a day fixing its fuck-ups as there is with Windows and Linux. And I did plenty of that for years before ever seriously using a Mac.

Nowadays when I check in on the Linux desktop to see how it's doing now, I notice how easy it is to get into the old habits of "oh this is pretty good, just a little tweak and I can get the audio working the way it ought to, oh and this and that" down a bunch of little rabbit-holes and pretty soon I've burned hours on stuff that sure looks like work, but is 100% unproductive. When I catch myself doing that I go "well, not ready to switch back yet, I guess, maybe next year".

I think a lot of people using Linux on the desktop either somehow manage to use it very differently from how I ever have, or are completely blind to how much time they're losing to it because they're having to work around deficiencies, put up with bad behavior, or fix stuff. That is, I think both categories of Linux desktop user exist, not that it's one or the other. I was definitely in the latter category, and can recognize that in myself now. Last I checked (a few months ago) the Linux desktop remains something I need to avoid if I don't want to end up doing a bunch of fake work.
> Surely someone will point out both can be true but the point is the anti-btc folks seem to be talking out both sides of the mouth

I dualboot without issue.

You can also run Linux inside of a VM on Windows.

Or you can even have a dedicated gaming PC and a cheap Linux PC. Windows Subsystem for Linux can give you the best of both worlds. I don't love Windows, honestly I think OSX is the best OS, but I can't run it on anything but a Mac.
