Fun fact and one of my dinner party anecdotes; I have the accepted answer for one of Ross Ulbricht’s (Silk Road’s Dread Pirate Roberts) SO questions that got him busted.

I must have misunderstood your point. I thought you were arguing that manufacturers who produces a variety of products with plants in the US and Taiwan can only afford to make their expensive products in the US because only those products have the margins to offset the relatively high US labor costs.

But from your response (and on re-reading your original post) it sounds like you're actually pointing out that high-volume manufacturers with thin margins have more trouble justifying high US labor costs - in contrast to low-volume manufacturers with high margins.

WFH makes some things slower, but do we really need to go as fast as we did?

If most of the gains of going fast go to capital holders, who cares if they make $900,000,000 this year instead of $1,000,000,000?
I'm so glad this is the official line now. People giving examples using nix-env -I is, IMO, one of the major reasons it's so hard to get up and running.

It's like... here are all the amazing reasons to do declarative config... and here's how you do everything using nix-env -I. Good luck figuring out how to translate it into a NixOS config so you can get all the benefits of declarative config that we just described!
Trusted computing is almost without fail never about making the device trustworthy to the owner operator. Quite the opposite generally. It just gets marketed as that in the hope folks don't ask too many questions.
The first time I posted on SO someone edited my question within a few minutes. I was initially annoyed/embarrassed (on other forums, a mod only edited your post if you had broken some rule) but I realised they were just improving my formatting as I had some dodgy markup in my question. That kind of thing is definitely busy work but it probably does contribute to the overall quality of the site more than you might realise.

The question closing thing though I agree is annoying.
I built out the Kubernetes stack for data processing / batch processing with Airflow at Everlane. Fully automated deploys, monitoring, etc. Mind you - we didn't build this from scratch / use native Helm charts, but used an integration partner that gave us a much better foundation. The data engineers were responsible for maintenance, deploys, etc., but with the sophistication we got it was very rare to have to actually do helm deploys.
Still love that guy and his writing.

Yes, could very well be that. However I wrote a bit of angst because maybe they'll be smart about it and this will be okay.

For all the (often deserved) hate Windows gets, in particular the user space API’s, I still find the chaos incredibly exciting and an invitation to hack together all sorts of strange things in strange manners.

> Nick Fitzgerald — Hit the Ground Running: Wasm Snapshots for Fast Startup
>
> Don't make your users wait while your Wasm module initializes itself! Wizer instantiates your WebAssembly module, executes its initialization functions, and then snapshots the initialized state out into a new, pre-initialized WebAssembly module. Now you can use this new module to hit the ground running, without waiting for any of that first-time initialization code to complete. This talk will cover the design and implementation of Wizer; discuss its performance characteristics and the scenarios in which it excels and when it isn't the right tool; and finally, in the process of doing all that, we'll take a closer look at what makes up the guts of a WebAssembly module: memories, globals, tables, etc.

Lots of interesting talks at the recent WebAssembly Summit!

Well, your response appeared to assume that the contents of the article were true and the contents of the article weren't true.

In general, when I receive incorrect information and respond to it assuming its true, I appreciate when people inform me that its not true. I assume other people on HN share that desire.
Yeah, GHD has not been well-marketed, but I've used it a couple of times and it has been very useful. I have similar experiences where SO questions can be pretty dodgy based on age--for example, for Rust I rarely bother looking at answers from 2016 because so much has changed since then. Some technologies are more stable than others.
There’s no reason all of this isn’t supported as well if not better in GQless than any other client.

You can hoist the query logic if you need to ensure it stays static for some reason.

I’ve built a very large app with this and am perfectly happy with the model, it has many upsides vs having to manually link strings into views, like never overfetching and having fully typed queries without any plugins.
Similar to me. Only when I actually needed to ask a question a while ago, I signed up again and found I no longer had enough points?!

The primary example code relies on Suspense, meaning that loading behavior will be handled by a parent/ancestor <Suspense /> component and not in the component itself. I think they default to showing this pattern since it is the “future” of React. There is an alternate version of the API where you can get a loading boolean for imperative control.

I purchased the LibreM phone when it was being crowdfunded. I waited years for the thing to be released, and what they came out with at the end was beyond disappointing. It's nearly three times heavier and 2.5x thicker than a normal phone- by today's standards, the thing is a brick.

If I had been told that I was going to get a developer device, that would have been one thing, but I (and many others) were sold the LibreM as a consumer device, and it's just not.

Along with that, there are reports of how working within the company was, such as this one:

Two things to look at are (1) are they being paid as a junior? And (2) don't look at their performance at any specific point in time, but look for improvements.

It's also possible for and employee to get stuck in a rut at a job, and nothing can get them out of it except a change of scenery. This is because everyone's expectations of them being a low performer or troublemaker or whatever are already set, and that perception will not change. So it ends up becoming a self fulfilling prophecy, because any small improvements the employee makes don't move the needle on how people perceive them.

For anyone willing to help the Nix project, there's a script[1] you can use in the Nixpkgs repo to update the official Nix package for Chrome. If you ever feel that Chrome needs to be updated immediately, you can help out by running this script and opening a PR.

Now, back to point, security issues are not "neglected" in NixOS, and most of the points made are simply not true. Security vulnerabilities are rounded up on a regular basis. However, like many open source projects, Nix is mostly being worked on by volunteers and I don't believe it's fair to spread doubts just because they don't get fixed in a day or two.

Let me also clarify the remaining points.

First, the parent comment alleges that the Chrome package in Nixpkgs has been neglected. This is not the case. Looking at the commit logs[2], the Chrome package has been updated on a frequent basis "from Dec 25 to Mar 12 of this year."

Second, the parent comment argues that installing your preferred version of Chrome is "distressingly" impossible. Again, this is false. Installing your preferred version of Chrome using Nix is as simple as supplying an alternative upstream URL for the google-chrome package. This happens to be one of the major selling point of Nix, how it makes it easier to reuse and customize existing package definitions without friction.

This article originally linked to an Inc. article which I read top to bottom [1]. I also clicked on the link to the BI article and found that it's gated [2]. By the time you arrived at the party, the mods changed the source link from Inc to BI, which I would argue only confirms that the Inc article was total BS and was not deemed a good reference - so much so, that they even chose to link to a gated article, which is obviously not ideal.

It's unfortunate that switching the source made it less clear which author's work I was commenting on, but I think that you'll see that most HN readers who engaged with me agreed that Jason Aten's article was rather weak. Your childish name calling, on the other hand, will always be unwelcome here regardless of circumstances, and please consider changing your approach or just go back to where you were prior to recently creating this HN account.

Yes, the full "standard libarary" you can expect to be present on any given JS VM may vary, but there's no plausible reason that e.g. at() should not work on almost any conceivable platform.
I would definitely recommend. The price is right. There are definitely some limitations, but I think that comes with the territory with what they are doing around privacy and simplicity.
Consider that paper filters may be more environmentally friendly than metal ones. Just look at a comparison of CO2 emissions between reusable bags and paper ones as an example. You’ll probably have to use a metal filter thousands of times more past its expected life span to break even with how much CO2 making it released into the atmosphere.

After all those years of being merely a reader I felt like transitioning from reader to contributor recently and the amount of roadblocks you get at reputation one is simply too much. There's an answer you think could become more useful with your comment warning of a pitfall to be aware of? Sorry kid, no can do, you need to grind away with top level answers before you can spread you finite wisdom in the small print. This level of gamification puts the subset of contributing users through a heavy self-selection filter and I would expect that the subset that makes through would turn out far worse (spammy, eager to game the system) than what we see. Have the thresholds always been this high or did the walls grow higher over time?
Probably 95% of people can handle psychedelics. That last 5% are not going to handle psychedelics well. I'm talking about the people on Market and 6th with schizophrenia.

Yup. Not native to the web, and IIRC jundreds of kilobytes of JS

> There are plenty of demos reaching 120fps animations either with CSS, or JS in DOM, or in canvas (with or without WebGL), so this issue doesn't sit.

Yup. "If I close my eyes, the problem will go away". Also, "if I ignore the actual content of the complaint, it will go away".

Because demos are just that: demos.

> Look, JS is fully exposed to the DOM

Ah yes. Suddenly it's no longer HTML and CSS, now we're bringing JS into the fold.

Do you know what it takes to actually properly animate what I requested?

> Implemented by your next point:

Ah, yes.

How it started: HTML is so powerful!

How it's going: Oh, look, all you have to do is spend thousands of man hours and write megabytes of Javascript to achieve what's available in other not-so-powerful UI kits.

Don't forget, what you implement will require orders of magnitudes more resources to run on what's essentially a supercomputer than almost literally anything else.

> Your initial complaint was that we're so constrained that it's "nearly impossible" to do what you want. If Sencha and ExtJS does it, and you can just use it, your argument is invalid.

I can also implement a web server in Brainfuck. Does it mean that Brainfuck is powerful and any complaints about it are invalid?

> That it's too much effort to use this great expense of time and manpower by downloading it with your package manager?

That things that are available out of the box almost literally everywhere else are actually incaccessibly to those who can't spend the effort on reimplementing them, from scratch, every single time.

There's a reason why Sencha costs $1295 per developer and even smaller projects like handsontable easily charge hundreds of dollars for their use. I mean, for things that are either available out of the box everywhere else, or are rather trivial to implement, once again, everywhere else.

"HTML is powerful", indeed.
> In spite of this, I am in the top 7% of accounts on the site

This isn't hard since the majority of people are just browsing the site instead of contributing to it, e.g. I'm in top 0.09% from just answering support questions for our product from a minority of users who prefer asking on StackOverflow instead of our Customer Forums.
As the other commenter said, showing people how to get eggs and flour is not the same as baking them a cake. The vast majority of the information is a by-product of treating our nation like a business: we now have shareholders to account for, and their collective vested interests are preventing the rest of the world from using this information to update reactors in France or advance experimentation at CERN.

I imagine the ratios are similar for alcohol, cannabis and tobacco. Subjecting the 95% to threats of fines and jail time for the 5% is wrong. But it would make sense to use this new tax base as a platform for addressing our homeless and mental health problems.

The third tweet demonstrates nothing.

The linked Nature paper in the third tweet [0] may demonstrate why a reservoir animal is more likely than the virus being artificially engineered, but damned if I can understand the reasoning in it. Maybe someone with a biology background or just plain smarter than me can explain it better.

In any case, my original point still stands, without exculpatory evidence for the Wuhan lab or the discovery of a reservoir animal, the lab leak theory should not be dismissed and any attempt to do so is just politics.

I haven't finished this video yet, but its thesis so far seems rather absurd. It mentions a variety of music styles produced heavily[0] by white people (country, rock, EDM) which are not well suited to analysis by music theory, but then goes on to claim that music theory is about promoting "whiteness". This is a rather large hole, one I'm doubtful will be closed.
