Since we're adding to the wishlist:

AMIs are a pain to publish: you need one for each region, and AWS keeps adding regions, and publishing is a challenge (you need to be a citizen to publish to the Gov regions, and you won't believe how hard it is to reliably publish to the China region, at least back in '18).

AMIs should be S3 blobs like GCP, and that makes everything simpler.

And, while we're at it, Key Pairs should allow elliptic curve (ssh-keygen -t ed25519 ...) instead of forcing us to use RSA.

TIL: that timeline feature is really neat! I don't see a way to get to it from the mobile UI though, will need to hunt around.
I’m a big fan of this book. It’s largely about the cancel culture, over protection, and how the voice on college campuses has been changing. How we went from college being a safe place for open debate and discussion to an environment which is becoming less welcoming of differing opinions and perspectives. The authors try to identify the origins of the change and use data and statistics to back up their claims. I thought it was an interesting read and recommend it for parents and non parents alike. The last quarter of the book does talk a lot of parenting and the idea of free range kids.

Brave on iOS is just a wrapper over Safari's WebKit and JavaScript runtime. Apple bans all competing rendering and JavaScript implementations from the App Store, forcing browser developers to develop skins over Safari.
This is pure madness. They would ruin the iPhone if this became law. I don’t want crapware, I want an iPhone. If you want something else run an Android phone, there are plenty of alternative options to choose from.
Google filters out what it thinks are pornographic results for non-pornographic queries even if SafeSearch is explicitly turned off.
> That in the event of something bad happening, the insiders don't get to bail first.

I don't get this. What's wrong with victimized insiders, who are just drones and aren't responsible for the decisions of the company, bailing first?

What I think makes much more sense is to not let large shareholders, especially executives with decision-making power, bail first.

Small insiders are typically victims, not perpetrators, of bad news, and not rewarded enough for good news.

How about a system in which if a low-paid worker of a company (say a warehouse worker, driver, etc. who is having trouble paying their rent) trades 1 share, it goes through in 1ms, giving them an edge over the hedge funds, but if the CEO trades 100000 shares, it takes 3 months before the order goes into the order book and gets executed? In such a system we could allow insider trading, it's just that those trying to bail out of millions of dollars just can't.

TV and movies reinforce the misconception. News is also global.
""He's [Ericsson] a hard practice guy, and I'm a soft practice guy." Gladwell claims that talent is important with an intentional dedication to practice and having a support system is vital to produce superior outcomes. It is not all about methodical effort as Ericsson claims."

That's not "pretty different views". That's agree on all the basics but having a different sense of how much talent matters.

How are they pulling us out of a clown world? If they use QE but the money goes towards assets / consumption instead of business development, all we end up with is more inflation without improving the economy. Window guidance could likely fix this but that is taboo
Why would they? This person is claiming to be a metaexpert relaying what experts are saying. If somone doesn't have research skills or even know the structure of academia then they're probably very used to having to trust people. I'm wondering if they even have the skills to check anything if they wanted to: somone tried to support a bullshit etymology for an Arabic word by citing some pseudoscience website to me. That to them is just as credible as wiktionary or anything else.
Their todo list has implementing it in hardware descriptor languages. It's not checked as done yet.
Sandhogs made an average of $45/hr in NYC. National average appears to be $22. That's high but not crazy. It's a dangerous job that can easy kill your coworkers or ruin millions of dollars worth of work. I personally would not to work with some fucktard making 10/hr if my life will depend on him.

Cranes can also kill coworkers and cause millions of dollars in damages. The operators should get a premium.... https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052702303936704576399...

Meh. Allowing me to have more control over the apps loaded / running on my phone is absolutely in my best interest. This stuff is exactly why I totally reject everything Apple and their "walled garden" ecosystem. I'll make my own decisions, thank you.
Eh, I don't think that's necessarily the truly hard bit, at least for common cases with a library design that works. With something like `useStyles()` from material-ui, you get a fairly unique className, and coupled with a build tool that injects the file/line/col location into the className, should be able to map directly back.
Thank you for such a relaxing peaceful game. What was the inspiration for this piece of art?

> In Japan, the traditional salaryman workweek is 6 days, with Saturday being "casual," and sometimes, a "half day" (only 6-8 hours).

The traditional office layout is also totally open-plan with no sound deadening and your manager staring at you from the side. Of course, I'm not sure there's much expectation to get any work done, but I always wondered if people too picky for cubicles knew what other countries were like.

Neat game, but it's annoying how I have to hold my mouse down all the time (and bad for RSI). Also the lighting is beautiful but it would be neat if it gave you cues where to go - e.g. brighten near uncollected tokens. (Edit: Just noticed the compass)

The credits list some 20 people put this together. It's lovely, though kind of feels like something 1 talented and artistic developer could do as a side project...
This looks interesting, hopeful it gets some adaption.

On a related note most mobile devices already support QR code for setting up a WiFi networks (iOS, Android). Works extremely well. This website has a JavaScript implementation you can take offline for generation:

That's because you are under staffed. You decided to do the job of many people wearing many hats to save money. Once you reach a certain revenue you will hand those jobs off to other people. They will be able to focus and will do a better job compared to someone who is constantly running on fumes.

The business owner isn't more productive at 5 days vs 4 but they make up for it by working 16 hours and 7 days a week.
You'd think that is so completely wrong that no competent programmer would ever do it...

Except the java.net.URL.equals and java.net.URL.hashcode methods do almost the same thing: they issue DNS requests (!)

"Two hosts are considered equivalent if both host names can be resolved into the same IP addresses; else if either host name can't be resolved, the host names must be equal without regard to case; or both host names equal to null."

See https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base...

There is a bug raised[1], but it can't be fixed for backwards compatibility reasons.

I'll never forget this now, after debugging a very horrible and severe and very intermittent performance issue in some code over 20 years ago. A (slow) DNS resolver occasionally caused 1000x performance degradation on remote sites. That was horrible to work out.

This is a very good idea. The UI for end customers to customize the payload is innovative. Things like rate limiting, error handling, exponential backoff, short circuiting, batching, and replaying requests are all harder than one would think (not sure if Svix supports all of those features yet but surely they will).
Freenode abruptly seizes control of FSF channels
If you want the long version, written by a qualified person, Pat Metheny’s views on Kenny G are well written and reasonably accessible:

http://www.jazzoasis.com/methenyonkennyg.htm

If you’d like a short answer by someone who isn’t qualified, it comes down to the disparity between his record sales and talent. Purists feel he has sold a shit tonne of records despite not being up to the technical standards set by the great sax players.

I’m not much of a Kenny G fan but I find that kind of criticism rather unwarranted. I don’t think it’s particularly fair to compare him to people like Coltrane or Cannonball as they’re almost completely different genres. To me (I’m not qualified), it’s like comparing baseball players to cricket players.

All that blah blah blah aside, like what you like and be proud about it. Purists can be wrong and they’re definitely not you.
This is going to be one of those threads where everyone rattles off their own note-taking setup, which is great and all. So:

There's a lot of things people tend to want from note-taking setups: easy entry, navigation and organization, wiki-like linkages, export to various formats, encryption. What I've found actually matters for my day-to-day and gets me to actually take lots of notes, though, is just (1) search and (2) sync --- I need my notes mirrored onto my phone.

For several years I just use Apple's Notes.app. It's honestly pretty great; it's frustratingly good, in fact, because it doesn't feel much better to use than does TextEdit. Both search and sync work fine. I don't have to think about what I'm writing or how it fits into the scheme of things because I'm guaranteed to be able to find things with search. I can drag screenshots of lecture videos in and write short sentences about them.

I had Bear.app for awhile and was initially skeptical of it, but it has now replaced Notes.app for me; it's a better writing environment, it has sticky notes (pinned to the top of the note list) which turn out to be really valuable, does native Markdown, and search and sync work reliably on my laptop and phone.

So, Notes and Bear.app are my two recommendations.

I'm interested to see if anybody comes up with something macOS-supported that outdoes Bear.

I'm an Emacs person, I've written a couple thousand lines of elisp, and I have never, ever been able to get into org mode.

It's also similar to forming words from multiple kanji. E.g. like Chinese "penguin" is combined from "business" and "goose" (not completely accurate translation).

Imagine poor kids 100 years from now having to memorize all those emojis and their combinations at school. Or having to know 3000 basic emojis in order to be able to read news.
Do you have any examples of current emojis that clearly have a very different meaning on different platforms? What you're saying might have been true 5+ years ago, but over time emojis have become more and more similar.

Here is just one random article from Emojipedia about the history of the "folded hands" emoji: https://blog.emojipedia.org/emojiology-folded-hands/ There are many more examples.

In addition to that, almost all emoji keyboards now autocomplete the emoji based on standard names, so if you search for "disappointed" on most any emoji keyboard, you will get the same face.

For reference, here is the current official emoji set, including the standard names and images showing how they render on different platforms: https://unicode.org/emoji/charts/full-emoji-list.html
Right, I have found that simply picking something and moving on is better than doing nothing. Even if it's the wrong thing, at least shipping that thing gets you valuable feedback which you wouldn't have had before.

I have also noticed that a greater sense of temporality has helped with making movement on projects. Working from home seems to diminish this relationship and as a result I don't feel the scarcity of time. I feel a much greater sense of this scarcity while working from an office and limiting myself to office hours. At home I feel like I have all the time I need. Working from an office, I feel the time flying by. I'm trying to figure out how to bring that office experience to my home environment.
I think you're misinterpreting him. All he's saying is that its ridiculous that he simply crosses something off on a calendar and people are acting like he created a brilliant productivity system.

He finds it hilarious presumably because people have been crossing things off on calendars probably since calendars and writing implements both existed at the same time.

In my opinion, manipulative ads based on challenging your emotions and the fomo they create are worse than the current plastering of graphics.

If someone is interested they will click on it, if not then why manipulate their minds and play with emotions. (Coca-Cola is a primary example)

Answer: work on a decent Open Source, end-to-end secure messaging app that takes donations.

Many corporations sponsor open Source Projects that they rely on.

After the Anom App drug bust, organised crime should (in a rational world) become major "anonymous donors" to "Fully Secure" messaging to further their own ends.
Bowie was absolutely in that league. It took me several years to appreciate his final album because of the circumstances but it is sublime.

I had kind of written him off after his "Let's Dance" sellout period I regret it. The second half of his career compliments the first half.
I’d separate those two. The Da Vinci code is not supposed to represent a factual telling of reality; it’s a fictional novel. You might not like it as a piece of high art, but most of us understand the difference between art and pop literature. Heck, most of us consume and like “guilty pleasure” media, I actually rather enjoyed Angels & Demons by the same author.

Malcolm Gladwell is purporting to communicate factual reality. If he discards good arguments and evidence to entertain, then he is doing a real measurable harm in a way that Dan Brown is not.
My Business Finance professor was of the impression one of the recent CEOs really wanted to lead a finance firm but got offered GE, so he decided to try to turn GE into a finance company.

If they crawled the sites themselves, then they could detect tracking code and allow users to filter out sites with that (filter by no ads, no analytics, no paywall, etc.) However, since they mostly just use Bing I don't know how easy that would be.
WebCGM and SVG Revisited (2004)
That's actually true! I totally forgot about my most recent Square/Clover experience...it's been months since I paid on those. Thank you for reminding me. I wonder how does it work in the back at the bank level, why are those OK vs like a Wholefoods or corner-store...
Plus for the cues idea too. No need to be something too obvious, maybe the direction of the wind, facing of the flowers or leaning of the trees etc.

I found myself doing a lots of systematic circular scan of the entire area -- Not hard, but a bit frustrating, and it's a brute force strategy (not really fun).
As noted, it's a bit more complicated than just putting things above or below a symbol. Also, if you look closer at the output from MathJax, you'll notice things like the setting of x+y=z has slightly different spacing around the + than the =. For that matter, properly typeset mathematics will also the spaces around the colons differently in, e.g., f: X → { y ∊ *R* : |y| < 1 }. Math typesetting is not a simple matter. I'd also note that the existence of, e.g., ² or ₆ in Unicode is more a result of allowing the mapping of legacy encodings and that there is a preference in Unicode that in general, superscripts and subscripts not be handled through encodings but rather through the layout engine of the application which is why there is no superscripted decimal point or other such characters.
Also, how will disclosure work? If I use an image in my Youtube video, do I need to declare that it was taken from Unsplash which was sponsored in a way by Square?

In Search of Stupidity: Over Twenty Years of High Tech Marketing Disasters is a history of computing told by its terrible business decisions. Reading this book, it seems the whole history of computing is made of astoundingly terrible business decisions. Maybe that's almost true. Very entertaining and informative.

I'm considering getting an iPhone just for notes. I had an old iphone, the iOS version didn't allow the sharing of notes feature. I thought I could just log into the iCloud website and edit my notes, however you are unable to view or edit shared notes from the website. It's very confusing.

I'm currently using iA Writer on Android. Notes are automaticaly saved as markdown to a Dropbox folder which I can open on my other devices fairly easily.

Meh. People like what they like but I hate that whole album.

Some may say the same for Kind Of Blue. I bought it on CD at Walmart in the 90s as a teen and fell in love with it. Never knew Miles was the Giant he was until later in high school.
It does not matter one bit how he behaves towards you. What matters is how he behaves towards MB. Bullies are perfectly capable of treating you nicely while being nasty to somebody else. The serial killer next door might be a great neighbour to you. That doesn’t change the facts of what he is.
Of course, these examples are shadows of what Miles Davis accomplished. He’s in a league of his own. He fundamentally changed Jazz at least 3 times if not more. Influential in Bebop (he claimed to have written Donna Lee), Cool, Modal, Fusion, maybe some Third Stream. Guy was an incredible musician.
Sounds interesting! What segment are you targeting? Seems like more of an open platform concept, but curious if it’ll also target schools and universities?
The issue with American football is the "line in the sand" nature of yardage. In rugby, as long as you wrap up the ball carrier and bring him down, it's fine if he gets another couple yards. In contrast, letting a running back get another couple yards is often the difference between a first down and a turnover.

Another reason is the lack of laterals in American football. In rugby, if you commit too hard to tackling a player, he laterals the ball to the player next to him, and you're now in a really, really bad defensive position. In contrast, laterals are so rare in American football that you can commit as hard as you want without consequences.

Neither of these things go away if you get rid of the helmets and pads; it just makes it more likely that people will die on the field, as they frequently did before helmets and pads were introduced. At one point, football was killing so many college students that President Roosevelt threatened to ban it.
You can listen to anything you want, but why should “intellectual challenge” be limited to a graduate program in theoretical physics? Should life be so simply divided into frivolous thoughtless moments of pleasure and relaxation and rigorous formal investigation of theoretical physics?
> Eyes on the street used to be provided not only by stay-at-home parents, but by other folks going about their lives: people walking through, shopkeepers, etc

Not just eyes but they were empowered to police kids as well, the local shopkeeper could "order" you to go home and confiscate the lighter you're burning leaves with without repercussion, but doing so now could just as likely end up with an angry parent coming back with the big "don't tell my kid what to do" speech. Similarly spanking was a punishment that friends parents could dish out, but this slowly faded out and now everyone is scared to make any physical contact whatsoever.

The accepted rules on what sort of justice could be dolled out by non-parents changed slowly and unevenly leaving many confused to the point where they just stay out of it entirely, or maybe just call the police for the worst infractions.
