If everyone followed that principle, humanity would have died out hundreds of thousands of years ago.
Turning radius doesn't matter though. What matters is being able to outmaneuver interceptors and cause them to lose energy. What matters for that is only Gs.

The turning radius is completely irrelevant if you want to evade a countermeasure. All that matters is how far you are from where the countermeasure is going. That's measured in Gs.

Similarly, there's not going to be any issue changing impact points, the only issue is changing targets, but I don't see where that would be useful.
I completely agree that corporate guilt--while a popular rhetorical sport--is wrong. People are culpable for their own failings.

We can encourage San Franciscans to reject every single incumbent elected official and replace them with coherent leadership, however.
Not sure why you are being downvoted. You are correct, and this is LITERALLY the case with existing virus boosters like Tetanus (actually the combined Tetanus / Polio / Diptheria / Pertusis). Many booster vaccines are recommended at regular intervals (some 5 years, some 10 years, some somewhere within that range). You wouldn't see people downvoting advice to get your Tetanus booster every 10 years! Yet they'll downvote such a suggestion about COVID boosters? I just don't understand. Its biology folks.

Actually this _really_ pisses me off that you were downvoted. Everyone is treating this vaccine plan (and I mean speaking from the US point of view vaccine plan) like it is the end of the pandemic permanantly. I can assure everybody that it is NOT. Indeed, there has been talk of these universal flu & cold vaccines for decades, but they have yet to be produced - just look how long the COVID vaccines took to be released worldwide when the first one was produced in January of 2020 (not a typo). Meanwhile, multiple countries in Africa, as well as all of India are still being ravaged by this virus - where is thier vaccine help? There is such a western centric twist on HackerNews that it really makes me question just how intelligent our "best programmers in the world" really are. From my initial view point, it seems everyone here understands the entire situtation no better than any other anectdotal theory from the average lurker on 4chan or reddit.
I wonder what are the thumb keys mapped to? Or what did you choose to map them to?
Did anyone manage to find the secret folder? Opening "Homework" folder tells you to move it a certain way to reveal the secret... I'm curios to see what the secret folder is
I doubt they'll be actively censoring. This is just a CYA sort of thing, so they can't be accused of abetting bad actors. I'm pretty sure your pron surfing will still be OK.
You don't seem to understand the difference between thought and conduct. If he was harassing "anyone", there are already many laws and many lawyers waiting to take everything he owns from him. The courts are there exactly for that reason.

If it's his viewpoints people have a problem with, as seems to be the case by the ample evidence directly from the people demanding his job citing the contents of his book even before having spent one day with the guy, then his actions were not ever in question.

So again I ask you in faint hopes you don't keep evading the question, are we a nation ruled by laws or a nation ruled by mob?
In 2001 I actually drove to Roden Crater on back roads using paper USGS maps and following the dotted lines. I entered through the back entrance, and drove to the top of the crater. As I was driving down a pickup truck was approaching, and there was only one route down.

It was James Turrell. He was none too happy. I apologized, and drove out. My architect girlfriend was livid with me for days
A lot of games from that era on the Amiga were like that, great in the audio-visual department but with terrible gameplay.
Can't argue with your final point at all.

However, my thread is more "can we do it differently?" instead of "maybe we shouldn't do it at all"

I agree, HTML isn't right for email.

Some different approach, possibly a markdown variant, with decent style support (basic css like background colours, fonts, like markdown themes in a code editor), why not explore that.

There's no reason emails need to be plain. RTF is a horrible format, markdown is much more prevalent and easy to make a simple UI formatter that obeys the standard for non technical users.
for me, I travel a lot. Have you seen the size of workstation-class laptops? Just the powerbrick on the top-end lenovo is almost the size of a shoebox. And even the upgrade screens don't hold a candle to macbook screens.

So I will put up with Macos interop quirks with docker and so on for the great screen and ease of carrying.
Update: I found it.. not even mad.
Good games should be easy to approach and difficult to master.

Good tools should be easy to approach with the ability to customize and do more advanced actions, but never difficult

Good tools and products encapsulate complexity but still allow access to it where needed.

Good tools aim to simplify complexity, not complexify simplicity.

Good engineers and product people make tools that aim to simplify. Make it approachable to a n00b/junior but no bullshit for the experienced, or at least the ability to turn off the bullshit and lock-in. Always aim to abstract complexity into simplicity, that is the job.
This case already started with discussion about brew. Brew is a choice you make if you don't like other distribution platforms on a Mac. But guess what - some people complain about brew not keeping software stable, but rather chasing new versions!

This is not a Linux issue - wherever you have different options and use cases you'll find different recommendations depending on what people are trying to achieve.
LE and Debian, two projects I use and appreciate, are free as in beer, but you're allowed to donate [1] [2]. Mirrors run for example on a university. In the end, it is all paid somehow. Perhaps by altruistic people, perhaps by public funding, perhaps by government funding, perhaps by donations (with a nice mention, aka advertising), perhaps by private money... but its paid for somehow.

You mention air and trees. If we don't pump money into the quality of our air and in trees (to offset Co2 production) we are doomed. You mention COVID-19 vaccines. Who do you think pays for it if its free? All of us who pay our taxes do ie. society.

If you pay for something, you have in some circumstances a stronger legal ground than when its free. I have all too often witnessed free products where, when I give feedback/criticism, I get the reply "..its free /care don't moan". If I pay for it, this argument doesn't hold, and you can hold them legally accountable in some situations. Its also not as if e-mail is expensive. I pay my ISP for it, and I get to pick a domain (all included with my sub, but guess what it isn't free...). I can move from that domain if I desire. There's also something like Posteo which costs 1 EUR a month or so, and then there's Protonmail (which I personally don't like cause of JavaScript webmail but YMMV).

The reference "if its free, you're the product" is a great rule of thumb on the WWW, as it raises awareness on an important issue. I wish more people realize it because all too many people have no idea what exactly is being harvested about them. Which is a shame. It also makes it more difficult for commercial products to compete. And, if I take for example two local research news sources which I like (De Correspondent and Follow The Money) then these are paid for; not free as in beer. Yet, they compete with free as in beer. Which isn't free as in beer. Every time you use YouTube or Facebook you pay, with your privacy. What I foresaw long before it got the standard quo was that we get a divide in world-wide society: those who pay with money, and those who pay with privacy. You can already see it very clearly in the mobile world of iOS and Android.

That's interesting. Can you give an example of when this has happened?
This is wrong. Hypersonic vehicles are thought to have maneuvering accelerations over 15Gs. That's more than most cruise missiles.

Of course they will not be as maneuverable as A2A missiles. But what's the point? If you want to evade A2A missiles already going slower than you you're using energy to your advantage so 10Gs is more than enough.

As it stands hypersonic missiles are more maneuverable than all other missiles including cruise missiles short of specialized A2A missiles. So for the purpose of evading interceptors and penetrating defence systems it's more than enough.
Huh. That’s quite high for LTE, more what you’d expect of HSDPA. Are they definitely LTE? Just did a speed test on my phone’s LTE; 15ms, which is about what I’d expect.
There’s a metaphysics discussion about whether a ship that has had all its parts changed is still the same boat (ship of Theseus).

With that in mind, if you own the game, box and cd, and are only replacing the data… is that actually piracy?
good question. perhaps a confused mix of: don't grind away deferring doing the things you want to do (activities you hope to enjoy in "retirement" etc) for too long, find a way to enjoy the journey. take more holidays and sabbaticals. figure out what "enough" is. & yes, try to remain somewhat productive and potentially useful (perhaps not necessarily in one's hyperspecialised professional niche), but enough to get by or solve some of your own needs if plans go awry.

maybe the latter could better be summarised as "put yourself in a position where you have a better chance of being able to adapt to the unknown or unexpected"

Pretty happy user here as well! I actually used your source code as reference to build my personal site [redacted], so thanks for open-sourcing!

One issue I have with elderjs (with the version that I'm using - haven't been up to date), is that hot-reloading with rollup seems to cause issues with css. The experience is not as smooth as per say nextjs fast-refresh, but I'm content with it for my use-case.
I think anyone who’s worked in any kind of corporate environment would distinguish “funds” from “money” when writing formally, but maybe that’s just me.

I grew up in the US but lived most of my adult life abroad, and the only thing I can tell you for sure is that you should never stereotype anyone based on the way they use their second or third language.
Yes please think about monetization next time!! All that attention is nice, but in the end you just gotta charge for your work, at least a little. We all just want to give away freebies, but success is hard to come by. These are rare opportunities and money gives you the freedom to focus on what you want to work on in the future.
J&j could have been formulated as 2-dose, but they didn't test it that way, because the type of vaccine it is is well tested already to have reasonable effectiveness with a single dose.

No rna jab had never passed phase iii before, so they hedged their bets and tested a 1/2 + 1 formula, knowing that it had higher likelihood to succeed testing.
Yes I believe the proper fix would be to always behave as if a popup is showing, independent of weather or not it actually shows.

Through it's maybe slightly more complex as you might need to behave as if the user clicked cancel in a way where a attacker can not easily differentiate it from an actual user clicking cancel.
I've heard of this security that comes from a bit of taxation phrased as "guillotine insurance".
In my experience, with the exception of the keyboard, MacBooks have always had pretty good build quality. I know every single person reading this is screaming THAT'S A PRETTY BIG HONKING EXCEPTION and, yes, absolutely, but the "new" keyboard that replaced the butterfly style one -- which is really not a new keyboard at all, but essentially the external keyboard they've been using for years at this point -- is solid.

As for "More [actually good] software supports macOS," I agree that's the definition of an opinion, but it's one that I tend to share, I admit. I think it depends on what you want to do with your computer, though. I'm frequently using BBEdit (it's what I spend all my time in at my technical writing job, in fact), Acorn, Retrobatch, and Ulysses (what I spend all my time in doing fiction writing these days), and none of those have Linux equivalents that I really consider equivalent. YMMV, obviously, but I've tried many of the semi-equivalents that would be available to me if I went back to Linux, and...I could make them work, but either not as well or with way, way more effort.

And, as for customization, this is a weird one -- I think different people look at "customization" differently. For me, I don't much care about widget and aesthetic customization, but I love love love things like macOS's Services menu, particularly in combination with Automator, and third-party automation apps like Keyboard Maestro, Hazel, and Alfred -- none of which I've found real Linux equivalents to yet. (They may be out there, but if so, they're not making themselves obvious.) I think Apple actually gives you way more knobs to turn than they're usually given credit for, but against stereotype, they're knobs deep under the hood.

Having said that, if I did end up spending a lot of time in Linux again, I'm almost positive I'd go with Xfce once more. I loved it nearly 20 years ago and the times I've checked in since then have just been more positive. :)

Trying to take advantage of of the wisdom of all of you keyboards nerds out here. Are you aware of any good/wonderful keyboard replacement for a laptop? I am assuming that they are standard for a given laptop size which might be totally wrong. Anyways if any such thing existed, I'd love to upgrade.
Half? Are you joking? Entire industries are nothing but marketing. Practically anything that's an established out-of-patent commodity product is just built down to a price and then wrapped up in marketing.

It's depressing, and I'm slightly exaggerating to make a point, but really, so much is just marketing, completely detached even from the separate company that designs and makes the thing.

Even my Marantz microphone shows up as 'Blue Snowball'.
Cool, I will check that out!
I hopped on JK2 again a few months back, always amazed to find other people playing.

The regulations in question are local governments' building regulations that artificially limit the supply of new houses.
Hmmm!? Most people use emails via cloud services. I don’t think Eudora is still a thing.
This is precisely the kind of self-aggrandizing macho nonsense I was criticizing in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27159383.

1. What should you use if you want memory safety guarantees—whether because you're a novice, because you have better ways to spend your Saturday nights than disassembling core dumps, because you're building a platform for safely running untrusted code written by players who are competing against one another https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27160615, or because, given your own fallibility, you think it's the only way to be safe enough from ransomware gangs? Of course you're right that it's not ANS Forth or polyForth or machineForth, but what should it be? What's the lowest price in complexity we can get away with paying for that pearl? Surely we can do better than JavaScript. Or even PostScript.

2. You say the paradigm in Forth is "correct by design", "fail-fast" and to fight complexity uñas y rostro. Well, precisely what I want is to be fail-fast; standard Forth pointer arithmetic isn't, because indexing past the end of an array will just access some other object. That means that instead of failing fast it will usually produce incorrect results and possibly corrupt the data in that other object, producing errors downstream. To fail fast we need bounds-checking, and for bounds checking we need to distinguish pointers from integers.

3. You say, "The paradigm in Forth is to increase the skills of the programmer," which is to say, to be more difficult than necessary. You're free to make your Forth more difficult than necessary if you want, which is an enjoyable activity that will surely make you a better programmer, but that isn't what Forth was designed for. In fact it's close to the opposite of Forth's design principles, which are to fight complexity because complexity makes programming more difficult. That's why Forth programmers in the 01980s had IDEs with virtual memory, incremental recompilation, compile-time metaprogramming, reflection, and multithreading that fit on a floppy disk and could run in 64K of RAM. It's not because F-83 was written by superhumans; it's because Forth's design removed a lot of accidental complexity from the problems, allowing its implementors to focus on the essence.

I mean, you're probably right that most people using Forth today are doing it, like Apollo, not because it is easy but because it is difficult. But that's not what Chuck Moore was looking for, it's not what Elizabeth Rather is looking for, and it's not what I'm looking for either.
A true macOS subsystem for Linux would be incredible.

I just can't use Linux or Windows for my desktop OS. Windows for gaming, macOS for work/daily.

God knows I've tried to run Linux. But it's just nowhere near as hassle free as I desire. Widows is out soely due to native non unix command line.
I've worked with (but not in) CorpDev in two large enterprises, and I've had a startup acquired via CorpDev. Paul is overstating his case to the point of it becoming bad advice.

Just like there are good VCs and bad VCs, there are good CorpDev teams and bad CorpDev teams. The mistake many founders make, however, is confusing the quality of the brand with the quality of the CorpDev team.

The best approach is not a simplistic "never meet with CorpDev" but to ignore the brand power and first treat a CorpDev team the way you would an unknown VC. Do some research. Ask other founders about their dealings with the team.

I've been on both sides of the CorpDev table. Just like VCs, there are plenty of people who will waste your time, but there are also people who are very generous with advice and introductions.

The trick is to ignore the brand and learn about the people you will be dealing with.

Edit:

It's also good to remember that many large enterprises have multiple (sometimes competing) teams working on investments and acquisitions. Quality can vary widely even within the same company.
Maybe We Need Masks Indoors Just a Bit Longer
I hate Windows with a firey passion and use linux top to bottom on all my projects and devices, but I have to disagree with you. Windows can be quite secure, as is evidenced by the last several decades of most corporate and military IT systems using it. Not having backups and untrained admins are platform agnostic security issues.
This isn’t a thing, at least not in the US.
Try the latest version pushed today. V1.4.0 moved the dev server into the rollup config and it should be a lot smoother.
Supermarket Sweep is on netflix now. I enjoyed that show as a child. Having decided to watch a few episodes, I became interested at this new engineering discipline so many contestants were practiced in, "Domestic Engineer" was their profession. I had to google it. People worry about titles. I prefer to live comfortably, have a lax schedule and dress how I care. I happen to regularly concern myself with principles, tests, and yep, you guessed it: documentation. Im a software engineer.
The M1 Mac use an ARM CPU architecture, unlike most Windows machines which use x64/i86
They are _selling_ it, though. I think that’s the point where a company can no longer use the beta tag to hide their blushes; if you’re reviewing a product that people are considering paying money for, you should review as-is, not as-one-day-might-be.
Why WebAssembly is a good fit for Unreal Engine programming
The keyboard layout is absolutely non standard in the UK but it's absolutely standard apple in the UK.

Appreciate that may be off if you're trying to adopt but I'm so used to this layout after many, many years. I'm using a 2007 iMac keyboard and it matches exactly to my 2019 16".

For example, the alt 3 for hash is so naturally embedded I reach for it when using windows machines. I have to do weird rebinds on my windows setup to match the layout because it's so embedded. I think macs have had the same keyboard layout for 15 years or so at this point.
I think talking about documentation is important because it's really the key to helping people understand code, and therefore maintain it. I think the idea behind self documenting code is nice, you should write code that is easily understood, but it falls short of being useful for the broader organization on a few fronts.

I have found in longer existing organizations discoverability of the existing code is a lot more difficult than searching for the human readable documentation equivalent and when even that is not a problem there's no real consensus on what clear and simple code is but even if the documentation isn't written by a strong writer it's easier to understand the system still from that documentation than by code which may have been written in a similarly confusing manner.

Of course if no documentation exists, such as what I've experienced, my point is moot, but then other issues are sure to abound.

I've heard a story recently about one of the larger brokerages in the world back in 2008 almost not being able to repair their login and authentication systems and when they did it taking a significantly longer time because no one had documented the system and that's terrifying to think about.
No, Corp Dev is definitely "Corporate Development".

No one outside tech in this field would ever think of "Dev" as "Developer".

It's not edgy at all. It's just the name for the job. This is how people refer to themselves as. E.g. "I work in corp dev".
If that's the two options: ruled by laws. As you said, the courts are there if what Apple did was against the law. It's just a pretty useless dichotomy, because the law leaves lots of room for things to happen inside its boundaries. And that's by design.

And again, the original point is not about good or bad, but that this is not new. You got excluded in corporate places for the wrong thoughts (if you shared them too loudly) before people went on and on about "safe spaces". It just was different things. And as such I find complaints about them being some new horrible thing unconvincing.
I think this depends on the website implementation / headers. For example, for any SPA, you hit the back button and get what you had before, often times no network requests made at all because local data caching.

As a web developer I see having control over this rather than the web browser as a good thing.
Reminds me of the 'Grandma Millie' laughter during the CA 'energy-crisis' created by Enron. [https://www.cbsnews.com/news/enron-traders-caught-on-tape/]

Unfortunately, the Enron CEO had a heart attack before he did jail time for 10 counts of securities fraud. But the drug company executives are still living.
All of you people really listen to podcasts and youtube videos and lectures at more than 1x speed? What about just enjoying the emotional journey, the pregnant pauses, having time to consider possibilities and implications between narrative sections?

I only ever met one person who basically always sped up any media they consumed, but I wonder if it's more common and if so what you think about your habit. Seems useful only in rare occasions where it's an information based media and the person is exceptionally slow.
