Fair question, thanks for asking!

There have been 9 revisions of ECMA-402 since 2012. We are, in fact, following TC-39 on a yearly cadence of releases.

You can see the history of editions here: https://www.ecma-international.org/publications-and-standard...

The first edition (finished in 2012), had just NumberFormat, Collator and basic DateTimeFormat.

Since then, we added Locale, PluralRules, ListFormat, RelativeTimeFormat, DisplayNames, two new revisions of NumberFormat, two major additions to DateTimeFormat, and we're now adding Segmenter, LocaleInfo, CalendarInfo and working on MessageFormat 2.0.

Here's a very incomplete list of finished proposals that have been merged into the standard and implemented in browsers - https://github.com/tc39/proposals/blob/master/ecma402/finish...

I may or may not be involved in majority of them! :)
> Why then does nobody seems to think there's an upside to the acquisition?

The examples are endless. Keybase, Winamp, Trello (to a lesser extent), MySQL/OpenOffice, the recent drama surrounding the addition of telemetry into Audacity, anything folded into the core product of some tech giant two years after the acquisition when the core stakeholders from the original team left.

In short, it's rare for an acquisition to work out well in the long term, so it's understandable to be very sceptical of them.

I used to work on the team that built this tool, and I've been eagerly awaiting its open source release. Of course, I think it's fantastic :)

There's so much interesting work being done on static analysis in Go (semgrep, ruleguard, etc), but I haven't seen similarly powerful refactoring tools. Gopatch is one approach to building a refactoring power tool - I'm excited to start using it, but I hope that it also inspires people (and companies!) to build even more capable tools.

Don't have children.
Mined about 100 on some old Radeon. Sold them at $30, because I thought they peaked. Trying not to think about that too much:)
Nix has over 80k packages now, so odds are what you need is there. But you should verify everything you need is available before switching. Make a list of everything you need and search the package repository for it:

I think the app missed a big one, but not having children would massively reduce your carbon imprint.
Anyone have a link to the study? i don't see it in the article.

It's a shame that what could be a long term viable job for many people has turned into temp-gig where the only path to success is being an "industrial athlete." If only Amazon actually cared about improving the down and out towns and cities it entered.
> Nope. These don't make "more-or-less arbitrary relationships to each other" easier or more obvious. And they are still fully constrained to the hierarchical 2D-plane of HTML.

Your requirement that a system should reflect "arbitrary relationships" is non-sense, sorry to be blunt. Nothing anyone could bring forward as an example from any UI system in the world would satisfy the description of "it makes arbitrary relationships obvious". You should probably use more precise language and examples.

Also you're simply wrong about being constrained. Declare your elements fixed (or absolute at root), and you can do whatever you want with them. The document becomes just a retained mode set of disjoint elements. There's no "flow" anymore.

> Only it's ... not HTML anymore. It's canvas. And yes, the irony is that to make anything custom properly you have to fully exit anything HTML- or CSS-related and use something entirely outside like Canvas or WebGL.

The canvas is literally an HTML element. It can be shown inline, or not, you can pepper your regular content with hundreds of tiny canvasses throughout, or you can make a giant one to take over your entire document. Your choice. It's literally a transparent buffer to draw whatever the f you want in it, and that sits in your document. How much more integrated with HTML do you want it to be?

You claim you want to exit the regular HTML flow, and rendering semantics, and when you do, you complain that you've exited the regular HTML flow, and rendering semantics. That's just circular reasoning, you're putting your own requirements in opposition, and blaming HTML for it, which makes no sense.

The modern browser stack allows you to opt out or in of most of what it does. It has never been as powerful, to the point that other UI engines are starting to use web technologies as a basis for their own UI stacks (i.e. Scion for ex.).

There are many little annoyances, as with anything, but all your complaints are honestly invalid. Or if I'm wrong, at least be specific and don't argue with yourself by painting in broad strokes about what it means to "exit HTML" or "not exit it".

State your specific issues, and I'll state a specific solution. So far your specific issue appears to be you're not very familiar with the technologies you're bashing.

Would it be possible to write a CLI tool that translated Scheme into Nix-compatible config files? Presumably then you could alias Nix commands so they piped config 8n through the translator.
Middle-brow dismissal. It is often mentioned in the guidelines here that we should respond to the best interpretation of a post, rather than the worst.

Cool for prototyping, but likely difficult to maintain over a longer period of time.

Just like with an ORM on top of a DB, if one needs to to performance optimization or support parallel app versions and ensure backwards-compatibility of queries, the actual queries are useful if not essential to know and manage.
In DomTerm, you can click to move the cursor. This is simulated by converting the click to a series a arrow-keystrokes. If you set up "shell integration" (https://domterm.org/Shell-prompts.html) it just works with a regular click (for bash, fish, or zsh). Otherwise you can can do Alt-click (to avoid risk of mass confusion if you accidentally click outide an application that can handle arrow-key movement).

Deleting selected text works if you're in line-editing mode. It could be made to work in normal char mode, but it's a bit tricky.

Setting mouse-reporting by the application (emacs, vim, mc, etc) works pretty well, but it means the application has to simulate the selection (which may or may not be integrated with the desktop selection), context (right-click) menus, etc.
Something about how mean people are with voting keeps it this way. It's just very hard to get a vote at all. I happened to get a gold badge today for 10k views on an old question. Of those 10k people 17 decided to upvote.
Maybe. They definitely want a return on the investment. So either they have a plan where SO complements some of their other assets or they just want to milk it for money.

Sure, but crowds actually don't behave like conscious entities. Getting a crowd to stomp its feet is not at all like having a conversation with a crowd. To have a conversation with something, that thing has to be able to somehow "talk back" and provide evidence that it has thoughts and ideas of its own. Crowds don't do that. To the contrary, crowds behave according to fairly simple dynamics, often the detriment of their constituents. There is no evidence at all of consciousness there.

Looks like the report (not linked in the article) is https://thesoc.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/PrimedForPain....

"Our findings are based on data that Amazon and other employers provided to OSHA annually from 2017 to 2020 within the General Warehouse and Storage industry (NAICS: 493110) and the last mile delivery industries (NAICS 492110 & 492210). ... All employers are legally required to submit annual injury and illness reports to OSHA for any warehouse, delivery, grocery, or wholesale trade facility with 20 or more employees annually, so these records should include every significantly-sized facility in Amazon’s US logistics network."

The bot they use is not.
As a manager, your job is to make your team work well for the benefit of the company. You do that by motivating them, by improving their skills, by removing barriers to their success. This idea of targeting your employees is absurd... who benefits? How does the manager benefit? Even if they were being selfish, the way the manager gets moved up is by the perception that the team is succeeding.

Competitiveness is useless in professional engineering environments except as, at best, a cheap and temporary motivator imo. Learning to collaborate effectively is what's important.
Top 0.54% apparently (what do I win?). Though my top answer has thousands of up-votes, and my next top one around 100...

What Are Starseeds? Interesting New Age Article
Well, the German Greens (along with NGOs like Greenpeace) have always campaigned against nuclear in a way that very effectively shaped public opinion to allow Merkel to use the Fukushima scare as an opportunity to shut down nuclear power.

Note that Germany's newest nuclear power plants were built in 1982, before the Chernobyl incident and before the merger of the West German Greens with the East German progressive movement (which made the party more politically relevant). This resulted in lifetimes of existing nuclear plants continuously being extended, which in terms of safety was much worse than building new ones.

There are six plants currently still operating, half of which are scheduled to be shut down by the end of this year, the other half scheduled to be shut down by the end of next year.

Ironically, the nuclear scares have not resulted in a massive expansion of renewables but in a strengthening of fossil fuels and especially coal (which is heavily subsidized and has even led to land being expropriated "in the common interest" to allow energy companies to harvest lignite).

As of 2018 Germany has vague goals about abolishing coal power by 2038 due to public pressure but in the most optimistic scenarios this doesn't involve shutting down any coal plants before 2035. That this is being discussed by (conservative and centrist) government officials at all is only the result of the Fridays For Future protests and related spillover movements (XR and more specifically "Ende Gelände", a series of protests directly targeting the surface mining sites).
Some people do badly in life. That's not an indictment of the system!
> It's politically unpopular for the same reason action on climate change is unpopular: it makes everything more expensive.

You've got this backwards. Both taking action on climate change and buying American are popular [1][2]. Furthermore I don't know of much evidence that suggests taking action on climate change will raise prices. But you are right about protectionism in that way. That's the biggest problem here.

In the abstract I see no reason that global trade should breakdown if a significant majority of people in the world can agree about labor standards, human rights standards, etc. In the specific, I believe this was one of the major original purposes of the UN, though unfortunately the world we live in remains one in which the abuses of great powers go unchecked because the cost of nuclear war is too high.

I can tell you one thing. At least at smaller warehouses under-reporting of injuries is common. So whatever statistics are being used I'd be careful with.

One trick I heard about. If you can get the employee count up, you can get your reported injury rates down.

Ie, two warehouses, both doing 1 injury per 10,000 packages shipped. If one has double the employee count it can make some of the reported injury rates go lower. If you ever see 5 guys watching one guy dig a hole - that employer is going to have great injury rate reporting even if the guy actually digging a hole gets injured just as often as anyone else digging a hole. Not sure if they figured out ways of mixing in management / white color jobs into the warehouse numbers.

But I'm surprised no one discusses underreporting at smaller warehouses.

And comparing to retail workers at walmart also seems a bit weird?
It seems to be based on injury rate data submitted to OSHA in three categories ("Lost Time", "Light Duty", "Other"). That's fairly simplistic, so I'm not seeing where the union had opportunities to present the data in an unfair way. The comparison to WalMart, for example, seems straightforward.

I do agree that some of the charts based on surveying workers might be biased, but that's the least interesting numbers in the report.
suggested Stack Overflow game - for all of those with top X% despite not contributing for years - see how quickly you can move from the top X% to the bottom X% by doing Y.

Y can be combinations of asking or answering questions.

If you get banned before reaching bottom X% you lose.

I guess would need some sort of site to keep track of stats of those playing.
Except when they don't. Did you miss the Scott Alexander / SlateStarCodex saga recently? It revealed that NYT's policies around revealing people's identity are pretty hit-and-miss.
I certainly don't want to assume the worst, but we have to go by the comments people actually post and the known effects of such things [1], i.e. what sort of subthread they're expected to lead to [2].

Your GP comment was unsubstantive, on perhaps the most flammable of flamewar topics. That made it flamebait, and it was completely off topic to boot. I'm sure you didn't intend to start a flamewar, but that's only a necessary condition, not a sufficient condition, for not starting one. Please don't post like that to HN.

It’s undisputed that Amazon has a quota for attrition that managers must meet. The only question is how are they meeting it. Why is it so hard to believe that a manger who likes all of their employees would inflate their headcount request to get someone new to fire? It’s practically a mechanical result of the quota. Of course they wouldn’t go on record about this, it’s wrong and possibly illegal (the manager must have lied when filling out some paperwork). But it would be more surprising if it didn’t occur.
I don't have Nexflix, but I do have Amazon Prime (and an Amazon Fire HD stick), and I love the fact that it shows ratings from both Prime users and IMDB - it would be a major PITA to have to look up everything one-by-one on my phone!

Off the top of my head, I think it shows IMDB ratings for shows from other services too (e.g. Disney+, BBC iPlayer).
I work for AWS and the concept of Bar Raisers sits in a weird grey area. There are plenty of decent candidates who pass the bar but we do stack ranking for the year end review. So they can hire at headcount and end up having to fire anyway. If you end up with two hires that are roughly the same the stack rank takes care of it.
A citizen must live in the US for long enough, and be old enough, before they are allowed to sponsor their family for residence. There's also no guarantee that their family would actually get their permit even if they pay the thousands of dollars and file the bajillion forms needed etc.
The return calculations are a red herring for many younger FIRE people, IMO.

I think the real issue is the assumption that their spending will never change. At the extreme young end of the FIRE discussions the people in their mid-30s have barely been independent adults for 15 years yet are setting fixed budgets for the next 50+ years of their life.

Many of these budgets have obvious blind spots, like the people who paid off their cars before setting up their FIRE budgets, so they forget to include future costs of replacing that car some day. Likewise, many of the frugality stories come from people who were high spenders in the past but recently became frugal, which ignores the fact that much of their current lifestyle (furniture, clothing, electronics, tools and equipment) were funded by their pre-frugality spending and therefore not accounted for in their current budget. Things decay and must be replaced eventually.
Not sure why you got flagged. I would be far less trusting of an airplane manufactured by the Chinese. For one, if they make any cop-ups i don't think their aviation regulators will be very... open, shall we say. Absolutely nothing against Chinese or anything, it's just that their government doesn't fill me with confidence.
Because hiphop spans multiple decades, and what's popular in one era may not be in the next. The best HH in the '80s was Run DMC, Public Enemy and others. Their music wasn't about hood despair because the CIA-driven crack epidemic in black neighborhoods hadn't taken root yet.

There's also plenty of '90s rap that isn't NWA, 2Pac, Mobb Deep or Biggie. Those were just the most controversial acts, so they got outsized media attention, which led to big sales and the creation of numerous imitators treading the same tired lyrical concepts.

That too changed in the 2000s as hip hop was fully mainstream, so the biggest artists made party music instead of gangster rap.

I'd say a lot of that stuff increases with value to an individual over time, but has less demand.

Some of those SO discussions are the only references to ancient legacy code that is useful, when asking any questions about it today would not get any answers.

So, depending on how we calculate value, if we ignore demand, it can be more valuable.
Not only is this an inflammatory non sequitur, it's also demonstrably wrong; the '90s were a time of innovation into all sorts of genres within hip-hop, gangsta rap being only one of them.

It's not as easy as merely comparing two numbers. Biomes are unique and contain unique ecosystems - both of which are being destroyed forever.
1) Communicating in terms that people understand is not manipulative.

Developing Social Consensus through Medical Propaganda, you could argue is manipulative, yes, but it's an inherent artifact of fighting off an existential threat to the wellbeing of the community.

You must herd most of the cats into the pen to get vaccinated or they will die.

2) Get away from the idea that there's something wrong or immoral with identifying that some people are smarter than others, more conscientious, lazier, inept, disagreeable.

In a crisis (and otherwise) we need to deal with actual reality.

3) You need to communicate with people at their level.

There are plenty of people smarter than you and I who might want to be communicated with in different terms than you and I might expect - the same goes for less literate.

Children obviously are not developed, and talking about facts is pointless. So you get Superman to tell them.

Oprah has more credibility to 1/2 the population that the media. So you get her to say it in the way she thinks will work best.

...

The Scientific Literature is public information, it's openly available, and frankly, the national health advisers are on TV 10x more than they even need to be, they've 'over explained' everything so 'transparency' for the most part has never been a problem.

It's not like we're telling people giant wartime lies to keep them onside.

If you gave yourself the job of getting everyone vaxxed, and then you realize that 1/2 of people were not showing up, you'd quickly start to alter your plan and arrive at much the same conclusions.

We've been doing this since the dawn of time, often in much worse ways, this is Public Communications.
