I've started putting timestamps at the start of filenames recently and is been working pretty well. yyyymmddhhmmss, then an optional filename if needed.
it might still be your idea of grotesque, and the timestamp does take up a bit of space unfortunately but at least its consistent.

going with your example above, it would allow you to just have folders for classes and then have files from all years in the same class folder. then you can sort of hack together a divider feature by adding some brightly coloured jpgs with a timestamp at the start of the year which would let you see at a glance where each year starts and ends.

it also helps if your file browser will remember to open each folder with the newest files show first at the top

Personally I don't view browser based and Electron apps as equivalent. I don't really use any Electron apps, but to me they aren't as annoying as software which run within my browser window.

Sometimes I just close my browser, because to many tabs have built up. I also want a Dock icon, PWAs and Electron apps will provide that and allow normal cmd+tab to work.

PWAs are worse than Electron apps, because they die when you exit your browser. Google Chat is the worst, they had a standalone app, but now it's a PWA. So I either have to have Chrome running (a browser I don't actually use) or a window or tab open with the web-version.

Electron apps are generally fine, from my perspective, they use more RAM and don't feel completely native, but in lack of better options they're completely fine.

There was a MIT study that the optimal doaage for sleep is around 300mcg.
The body produces about 30mcg of melatonin afik, and the oral bioavailability of melatonin is about 10% so, the math works out.

More might produce excessive grogginess after you wake up, and in my experience it leads to fast tolerance -- so it doesn't work; 300-450mcg works in perpetuity for me.

Any idea where I can learn some simple structural engineering?

For example, I want to build a small building. I want to be able to calculate things like the snow load of the roof, make a suitable truss, take into consideration things like the safety factor, and build with the materials to meet those requirements.

I can buy plans for similar constructions, but i don't see how they decide what size wood to use where, etc - and I want to gain an understanding of that.
I think there is a vast difference how individuals deal with addictions. Some are better at it, and some are pretty hopeless. I have been smoking nicotine on-and-off since more then 20 years. But I still have no craving when I stop. Last time I realized how strong the difference is was when I did a overseas flight. After 12 hours flight, first touchdown on some island for refuel. A friend of mine was desperately trying to find a place to smoke. She basically used all the 60 minutes she had seeking an opportuinty to smoke at least one cigarette. I was watching her the whole time, pretty amused, realizing that I have no craving at all. That doesnt mean I didnt smoke a cigarette a few hours later when we finally arrived and left the airport. But watching the difference from person to person was pretty interesting.

I should have put this in the post -- there's absolutely a vesting plan in place: 4 years monthly w. 1 year cliff. Plan is to trigger it only when we both decide to work full-time on the project (and hopefully get seed funding after the beta demonstrates user growth and revenue potential).

The market we're serving is seasonal and won't be "open" (as it were) until September, hence the delayed launch. But otherwise I completely agree. I've launched a small alpha proof-of-concept that's been well received, for what it's worth.

I think there's an important difference to make, I know a lot of people who have smoked once or a few times and have not become addicted but I don't know anyone who smoked regularly and didn't become addicted.

On the other hand for alcohol, I know a lot of people who will have a glass of wine whenever they go to a nice restaurant yet are not addicted.

So there's a magnitude of difference. Nicotine is significantly more addictive for anyone who uses it semi regularly whereas alcohol is not as addictive in that case.

I didn't know this and it's pretty surprising to me. In any case it's all the more reason I don't think it changes anything here. I'd be really shocked if they outright dropped support for non-T2 Macs at this point in their lifecycle, especially if they were selling new machines a year ago without the chip.

It just stands to reason that macOS would become more dependent on security hardware over time and they would fudge whatever they need to separately in order to keep the older models working through their support life.

I've no insight into macOS internals but I'd suspect that by now there's some kind of software T2 chip in the kernel for these older Macs that performs as much as possible of the same function minus the tamper protection and hardware acceleration - and that they're pushing updates for that separately.

We'll find out next week at WWDC I guess.
This is like treating symptoms, not the cause of the disease.

Th actual issue is that a sheet of paper never changes unless you do something to it. And the way our cognitive system perceives the ever changing screen is very different from how it sees the paper.

The real screen is the one you see when your eyes are closed (or when your switch you attention to 'there' without closing your eyes).

Plus, you can't use your hands directly to work with things on the screen. With handwriting each letter has individual motion pattern. Now this is lost. Tactile feedback is lost too.

This imbalance affects you ability to learn and evolve very badly. That's the real issue.

Also involution is known to happen very quickly. Losing abilities takes only two (!) generations to persist.

Like many psychology and sociology papers, Mouse Utopia is now discredited because nobody could reproduce those results: https://www.gwern.net/Mouse-Utopia

It doesn't no, which underscores the importance of favorable geography to successful military action even when you hold overwhelming military power.

Afghanistan was poor and the government was militarily weak, though, which I guess is why the US figured they could execute a successful military invasion in spite of the geographical unfavorability.

Osama was definitely on to something when he baited the US into a war there. He said the war would be protracted, costly, deadly and unwinnable. $2.5 trillion down the drain and 4,000 deaths later and nothing to show for it - he was right.

I lost my brother in 1999.

I was 15, he was just 5. He was fine, healthy and then got chickenpox.

He was doing fine and in a matter of 24 hours he was gone.

I miss him a lot… it was extremely hard. The missing part never goes away, but it does get better, little by little. Honor their life, remember them, live a life that would make them proud.

Talk to them when you're by yourself. They somehow still live inside you.

The pain feels like it will never go away, but it will, I promise you it will, work on letting it go. They would want you to be happy.

> having 500 tabs open in mobile Safari, which I always do, doesn’t hurt my system performance at all because the tabs are freeze-dried when I’m not using them.

When you have so many open tabs, there's no difference between a "freeze dried" tab, and just an entry in your browser's history. If your system performance on desktop is hurt by having 37 windows open, the solution is to just close all these windows. I guarantee you're not going to miss them.
UT-Austin has an enrollment of 40K in a state with almost 350,000 high school grads in 2021. It is in no way a 'last resort' college and is in fact at the top of the UT system in terms of exclusivity and admission requirements. There are a variety of other UT campuses around the state with lower admission requirements and a similarly lower academic ranking. You are correct that Texas is an outlier though, it has one of the lowest graduation rates in the country.
I'm starting to get really bored of all the Apple speculation.

Zero chance right now, yep. Russia is way too powerful militarily. If Lukashenko is overthrown and Belarus flips to the West, though, NATO will start to threaten Kaliningrad next. Maybe the Baltic Republican Party will get another truckload of cash out of nowhere and start giving interviews on CNN.

The whole point of the ratchet games in Eastern Europe is to make it incrementally easier until it becomes a more realistic plan. NATO probably won't have a problem edging further towards Moscow for 70 more years and Moscow will try to stymie them every step of the way.

Once it becomes realistic and winnable there's a good chance they won't need to fight. Russia would likely flip to becoming a client state of the US of its own accord. That is likely the NATO endgame - a series of puppets like Yeltsin in power for good with the labor/natural resource markets opened up for exploitation to American megacorporations, no significant industrial base of its own and a very limited military capacity.

I don't have anything on my desktop because I use Emacs.

If the author is unhappy with the desktop then a good place to start with reinventing it would be to read the vision written by Vannevar Bush that inspired it.

> It would clearly be strictly superior to their existing offering. For that matter, they bring up browsing history in Safari which is an even easier problem and also claim it hardly works. For evidence outside of Apple

For evidence outside of Apple, just try to use browser history in Chrome or Firefox. They're completely unreliable, entirely useless. For me, it's 50/50 chance I'll get a result when searching for a site that I visited few days earlier.

> think of all the in-app search systems that can barely even search plaintext for things you know exist

Exactly.

Most of the search systems I've worked with have one, big problem: they don't feel reliable. You type in a query, a system starts a search. You get some indicator of progress, which eventually expires. Typically, search systems don't tell you if the search was exhaustive - did it check every possible thing that could match, or did it bail out after hitting some time limit? They also often meddle with the query, modifying it or doing fuzzy matches, in ways not communicated to you in the user interface. With such systems, if the thing I'm looking for isn't in the result set, I don't feel confident it isn't there.

Manual file organization (or any direct data access) has this property of being exhaustive: a file is either there or it isn't. Direct file access means that if you don't trust your file searcher, you can always look for yourself.

There are many other challenges ahead if we want "universal search" to work, but a big step forward would be addressing these trust issues. It's entirely an UI issue. Instead of "0 results found", say "0 results found after searching contents of all text files in Documents folder (symbolic links not followed)". Instead of "about 123 results", say "123 results found, there may be more matches, [click here] to read about limitations of the search method".

(And on a general point: users aren't as dumb as the common claim is. Our industry is treating them as dumb, taking away every opportunity to learn and build mental models - and then complains that users "are dumb".)
Nice. Is there any way one could proof that data is really deleted?

Not questioning your honesty, just curious.
It is very odd that the attack is often taught as something just out of the blue - e.g. there was the Japan War Scare of 1906-1907 https://www.globalsecurity.org/military/ops/japan1906.htm and Japanese citizens in the US were bascially treated like 2nd class citizens stoking up a lot of resentment (not that I'm defending the attack or the Japanese military/fascist leadership!)
