This is a direct result of their monopoly, which is why Google should be broken up. Because they have such a huge monopoly, they can afford to ignore customers and have a draconian approach to people, and can get away with it. If there were better competition, they wouldn't have been able to ignore their customers. Breaking them up will alleviate this by ensuring that each company needs to be able to survive on their own, of which one aspect is having better customer support and service.
You linked to server side rendering, not static extraction of styles, did you mean something else?

The point of static extraction (something the current wave of new CSS-in-JS libraries seem to be focusing on), is to generate all the style sheets at build time and serve them as regular CSS files — so that your styles don’t inflate your JS bundles (a problem most older CSS-in-JS libraries have).
In fairness, it's likely that not much of that money went to financing insurgency. Some? Yes. Most? No way.

I had the same thought when reading the list. I was very excited about gridsome when I discovered it last year. It had so much potential but disappointing to see it untouched since.
CSS modules solves all of these problems (except the separate file), and also lets you write vanilla CSS, and not have to hack around the limitations of css-in-js. Dynamic styles are easy with React's `css` prop, or simply passing in an additional class name.
I used to feel the runners high regularly when I first started out.

Back then I was pushing my body beyond the limits my brain thought was possible, and each time I broke through those limits it was exhilarating.

Nowadays when I run it is more a calm and meditative experience, however I'm also running within those limits, some quite extensive, that I had set myself in past runs.

Except that one time recently when, on a whim, I set myself a new goal to run all of the large hills in my area in one session. During the attempt my brain was screaming at me to stop, but I kept going and made it. From the moment I knew I could make it I felt the high again, a rush that radiated from my brain through the body and crashed against my extremities. My legs felt like they were flying over the pavement, the world around me became crystal clear, I had a beaming smile plastered on my face and I found myself wondering if I had attained godhood.

I've since come back to earth, but the experience made me realize that I'll need to set some tough challenges to feel that high again.
I think it is because the speed which subtitles need to be shown at if it would be word for word. It would be too fast for many viewers. Usually (I am talking from a Swedish context), they are a 60-75% summary of what is being said.

Something interesting to consider is how important is offline use these days? If we get to an online-99.9% world, then the solution feels ... simple.

It should be noted that the article is written to sell services for Terraform. It is unfortunately built on a few false premises that are never argued. Very few Chef developers would agree with Chef being somehow more imperative than Puppet, for example, seeing how the language was originally thought of as a superset of Puppet's.

The author does not specify which module is used for AWS, but it is not representative for how one would want to use Ansible for infrastructure. Writing idempotent playbooks is widely regarded as best practice in the Ansible community.

I have used Ansible for declaring node state in large production environments (not some dinky startup) and found it to be a very straightforward way to manage infrastructure.
Thank you! Now I'm trying to remember why Tor uses three hops instead of two. Perhaps it's intended to prevent the exit node from knowing the first hop, preventing attackers from associating traffic on the two nodes. I wonder what Apple does to prevent that.

If Apple chooses to invest resources in it, I expect Apple's Private Relay servers are much more secure than Tor servers. I hope Apple allows non-Apple users to utilize Private Relay.
eBPF can give detailed stats and TCP state information on a per connection basis (flow), much more powerful than TCP stats you can grab with SNMP that are aggregated.
My son and one of his friends spent a huge portion of their stuck-at-home time during the pandemic playing minecraft.

It turns out a lot of what they were doing while "playing video games" was learning how to make really complex and unique game scenarios using minecraft command blocks and redstone -- essentially creating both a RPG PvP arena and a multilevel party dungeon crawl w boss fights.

I run a small minecraft server for them to play and experiment on and I've resisted the urge to try to teach them anything about setting up and running servers, backing up data, or using text editors with syntax highlighting or source control to edit and preserve their command block commands.

I just show up for demos and let them know how cool what they're doing is and backup and reboot the server as needed.

I've messed up plenty as a parent but i think not trying to turn their interest in programming within minecraft into a learning experience has been one of my better decisions.
But Google isn't the only provider of email addresses. In contrast, water utilities typically hold monopoly over their region.

EDIT: Many people are replying with some variant that the problem is that Google can block the email account that people have tied to their financial and government services.

But the same is true of any other email provider. If Google is somehow turned into a public utility, how does that solve the problem for those that are locked out of their email accounts by Fastmail, for instance? Make Fastmail a public utility too, or somehow regulate it? But it's an Australian company, so kind of outside of American jurisdiction. Or regulate the addresses themselves? Put up a law that says that only US public utilities can administer emails on the .com domain? I don't really understand what people are proposing.

Or is the proposal just to regulate gmail.com addresses in particular? Treat them as the exception and incentivize more people to use that one provider so they get the protections offered by the proposed regulation.

They never positioned it as a competitor to a modern portable like the Nintendo Switch so who cares? Do any of those games on the home page look like they need a modern chip?

> They have no actual plans for any kind of centralized distribution for games.

What are you basing that off of? Because they didn't detail the specifics of how the games are going to be distributed?

> Just because a well known name is behind a project doesn't necessarily mean it's going to be a good product or a great idea.

Indeed, which is why you can wait to buy it until it's out and has been reviewed by others.
While Google is functionally a public utility, it's not something that I want to be regulated like a public utility. If the government can't be trusted to law lines on a map that aren't blatantly rigged to favor their own political party, I can't trust that they won't tamper with search results the same way.
Stephen Wolfram continues to shy away from the understating, unexagerrating language that is the norm in the best technical, scientific literature.

His writing is dominated by the I pronoun, and he keeps creating these complex sentences just to make sure it is clear that it was him who thought about that, and he concluded it, and it is his contribution, only he saw the connection, etc.

IMO this is distracting from the ideas themselves, for what they're worth.
Worth emphasizing, this isn't "the West", this is just the US. Not that other parts of "the West" don't warrant their own lists, but framing it this way unnecessarily cushions the blow.

Wealth taxes in practice tend to make income taxes look simple - to be effective they need to be capricious and arbitrary in way that's difficult to sustain in a country with a legal system that at least makes a reasonable show of not liking either of those two things.
Modern CIWS are designed to be effective against substantially faster and more agile rockets. Drones really are slow and easy to take down compared to guided rockets and especially kinetic ones, and the military has been working on means of defending against those for decades. The Phalanx is being modified to serve as an anti-UAS system, for example. The challenge is more to do with detection than firing.
I feel you! I mostly suffer from the opposite problem (seen words in writing by never heard them spoken, and end up pronouncing them wrong).
While I'm not sure that a lawsuit like this is the right venue, companies like Google arguably deserve to be treated at least something like a public utility. The power and phone companies are allowed to dig or put up poles and wires where they want to - that's necessary for them to do their business.

Companies like Google (and Twitter) require special rules to function - a generous view of fair use, and things like section 230 for exemptions to copyright liability. I think they should probably get those - I'd argue that both companies improve the world, in the same way that having power lines does. But it's worth considering if stipulations should be attached.

And even drone races are slow and predictable compared to what is possible with an applied military mind and decent tools. I suspect (or hope) we already have some decent options in the top secret space.

Nothing we have now (publicly) is going to do a damn against a shipping container full of 2-5 lb drones each carrying 1 lb of C4 in a swarm with cheap off the shelf sensors going 100 mph nap of the earth in a distributed pattern. And that is currently entirely doable with off the shelf drones using existing software and published techniques for peanuts. Add in some decent programming and logistics talent, and that is a huge problem.

Comcast isn't a global monopoly. It's a small regional monopoly in some rural areas where it's mostly unprofitable for other ISPs to build out.

Comcast just lacks Google's PR flair, and doesn't have an army of paid lobbying organizations entirely focused around making them look like a public good. (And yes, TechDirt is one of these paid organizations.)

Public utilities generally have regulation commensurate with their status as local monopolies. There are constraints requiring they offer service because if they refuse service, a consumer can't just walk down the street and get water from the next water company over.

For this reason, it's going to be difficult to argue this case in the affirmative when google.com, bing.com, and duckduckgo.com are exactly as far away from the end-user in terms of "digital distance."

Except that this behaviour shows up in non-monopolistic markets as well. Apple does it. PayPal does it. Heck, our European banks have started doing it despite there being ample competition. What the competition did, is made sure EVERY competing entity does that because it's cheaper and costs were brought down with race to the bottom.

I don't get where this bizarre belief that "moar free market" will solve issues. Let's setup proper legal framework where these companies must have a good reason to terminate contract instead - and properly explain it with the ability to appeal.

IMO there are far greater concerns with centralized API services, which are nearly always opaque, closed-source, and incentivized towards vendor lock-in (AWS being the elephant in the room).

"Staking careers" is also a little much; React isn't that hard to learn (it's near-trivial compared to .NET or iOS development), and any developer worth their salt will have to frequently retrain into new patterns and frameworks during their career.

There can be legitimate concerns with power concentrations of open-source software based on the incentives of its stewards (Chrome comes to mind); but ultimately React carries a relatively small footprint, and can always be forked [0] if it goes in a direction that developers don't like.

You're cheating with the non-obvious bit. That's not at all what makes something science. Also the falsifiablility criterion is far too strict for much of biology and many others. Many if not most of the facts of botany or zoology are observational and only non-obvious in the sense that nobody bothered to look. Much of taxonomy is not very falsifiable and can only be said to be correct with respect to its own assumptions.

If you were a Martian scientist studying human culture by observation, noting things like people congregating in certain places and marking pieces of paper results in changes in who goes to a building far away would be nothing but trivial. But we already know all of that, so it feels and actually is useless as knowledge.

Also, there are very useful models in history when it comes to use of energy and resources - like Ian Morris's - that very much add something non-obvious, falsifiable and are probably correct. Just not very predictive on any scale under 500 years or so - but then again neither is natural selection.
> by making little changes to their environment. [...] If you interrupt them, they can't start from where they ended. They start the sequence from the start.

Who says we do any different?

Also there's a huge difference between proving something scientifically, and 'knowing' something. It is a hugely useful distinction, but science operates in it's own domain.

To insist that only scientific knowledge is true knowledge is a form of solipsism.

Scientifically, even if we met face to face, you couldn't 'prove' that I am intelligent, or conscious. It's just a bias that we consider ourselves to be these things and not other animals.
Those are the compensatory damages, but punitive damages might be appropriate here on top of those.

> Things like "not sure" and "I think" and "even if I'm wrong" suggests that it is not very clear what is covered and what isn't.

No - it suggests that I'm not a lawyer. I would use those phrases for any license.

Let me put it concretely. Had I read the AGPL, I would have concluded that there is no problem in this use case - just as I would with the GPL or any permissive license. It's only because others disagree, for reasons that seem faulty to me, that I hesitate. Frankly, for me, this is a good example of (unintentional) FUD.

> The practical problem is that some organizations simply discourage or don't allow the use of GPLv3 or AGPL software.

I thought the issue was GPL vs AGPL. If you're avoiding GPL, then it makes it more understandable. In any case, I use it for personal reasons. Were I considering it for our work, we would consult with our lawyers (have done so in the past) - regardless of the license. My work does not involve the web, so I don't have the concern of having to learn two different tools.
