Google is interested in eliminating native applications in favor of web apps that it can control by providing analytics, SEO, ads, and so on.

So they're very aggressive to introducing "app-like" APIs to Chrome even often at the expensive of user experience, performance and security.

As you said, their very goal is turning the web into ChromeOS. And the web is everywhere.

Honestly, that's NOT a good thing for the future of either the web or applications.

I'd be willing to place a bet there are 101 reasons why that sort of contraption will never be seen on the roads.

You can override it with a commandline flag but that would mean changing the launchdaemon which is protected by SIP as far as I know. But I will have a look for that to doublecheck.
Careful: fewer and fewer people work. It's under 50% now. So you can work those workers harder and still see the average person sleep more and have less stress.
Theatrically quitting is performative. Journals publish nonsense all the time and this is widely known, and also inevitable because science is hard. Journals that refuse to publish controversial findings hinder the scientific process by presenting an illusion of consensus. Consensus isn't everything, and contrarian opinions in science are fine, and publishing contrarian research is fine too.

Scientific journals aren't arbiters of Truth, and we don't need to be protected from bad opinions.
You mean theoretical and uncertain like the experiment they're doing on a global scale now? When did we ever have 130 nations all agree on the same corporate tax rate?

Not that I think it's necessarily bad, it's probably better than the current system which is very broken. But can you explain how and why that is actually a better idea than introducing a BAT system? Again, both are theoretical and have never been tried, so you should have very good research to back up a claim that the global flat rate tax is the better idea.
UK isn't really made of countries in any internationally recognised sense. The "four nations" are really are just administrative regions with a trumped up sense of identity. Having different football and rugby teams is a a historical accident since those sports were invented here.
Ask HN: What system do you use to keep key people updated on a project?
Hi everyone,

after a long history in the dev field I decided to help my company as a Product Manager (I also own a company that produces a "real" product, so I have some hands on experience too).

The transition is taking too long so I'm still having duties from other roles (Tech Architect/Leader and another one).

Which leads me to managing a quite diverse group of people and having different key referrals that I need to update.

Meetings and calls work fine (with a doc recap at the end), but I also do think that it would be best to find a tool that allowed the stakeholder/pm/whatever to check in a project status only when they need to, so I could save some of their time.

Mail is not organized enough and we lose track of the history, a simple google doc might work but I'm not sure it will be efficient.

What works for you?
An intermediate UI abstraction may hold some appeal if you maintain apps delivering equivalent function across a diversity of device types and capabilities.

The best example I can think of would be a streaming media service that ships an app for hundreds of different TVs, STBs, dongles, NASes, mobile devices etc etc that all front basically the same service.

> shipping the whole app as a single s-exp

Be careful what you wish for. You may reinvent Lotus Notes by mistake.
Yes there is. You can play music for yourself and close family. That you happen to 'be in public' or 'be at work' isn't relevant.

Moreover, the interpretation of the statute, as indicated by a very long trail of case law history indicates that the boundaries for 'pubic performance' are fairly wide, at least wider than the most narrow interpretation of 'for oneself and close family' etc..
Mandarin is not the only Chinese language. It's the standard dialect, but there are a range of other dialects and languages spoken in the country that derive from Old Chinese, and which share a significant cultural heritage. This gets even murkier, because Chinese is not written phonetically, so even people who do not speak a common language or dialect can still communicate using the common writing system.

All this is to say that Chinese identity is not as closely bound to speaking Mandarin as one might think.

>Learn about the principle of least authority and try to apply it to your workflows

So how would you apply this principle to the python interpreter or to a program that gets compiled to a new executable many times during development?

I like the idea of granting folder permissions to regular third party apps I install and use. I always wanted that and I'm glad Apple is moving in this direction with the Mac.

But contrary to regular apps, language runtimes and software under development do not have a specific purpose. The whole point of software development is to create and test arbitrary code. It is pointless to grant privileges to code that changes in arbitrary ways with every keystroke.

During development, privileges have to be granted to the developer account, not to any particular software artifact. I generally think that granting privileges to software and granting privileges to people each has its legitimate place. One isn't generally better or worse than the other.
It's also been linked to gingivitis:

https://www.newsweek.com/dementia-gum-disease-alzheimers-lin...

DNA tests on three brains with Alzheimer's disease and six healthy brains also had the gene associated with P. gingivalis in their tissue. The team also examined the cerebrospinal fluid and saliva of 10 patients believed to have Alzheimer's disease, and found the P. gingivalis gene hmuY in seven, and P. gingivalis itself in all of them.

And in an experiment on mice, those dosed with gingipains had higher levels of the hallmark Alzheimer's protein, amyloid beta, and greater damage to their neurons than those who didn't. What's more, when mice were treated with a drug blocking the enzymes, the neurodegeneration stopped.

...

However, he said the study was limited because the team has not yet determined if different strains of P. gingivalis are more virulent than others in causing brain infection. "This remains an area of active investigation," he said.
Nope, I have a view that parses my url router for views and generates an openapi schema, and a view that shows a swagger with it.
Very much agree on Germans wanting to be left alone: I'm always annoyed at waiters abroad, because they keep asking and bugging me if I want anything else, if everything is OK, if the food was adequate. If I need anything I'll becon, if something is not right I'll tell you, leave me be!

I can fully understand that foreigners expecting the above level of buzzing around from a waiter are disappointed in Germany. Expectations here are completely different.
> While the European average is 127 individual case safety reports (ICSRs), i.e., cases with side effect reports, per 100,000 vaccinations, the Dutch authorities have registered 701 reports per 100,000 vaccinations, while Poland has registered only 15 ISCRs per 100,000 vaccinations. Assuming that this difference is not due to differential national susceptibility to vaccination side effects, but due to different national reporting standards, we decided to use the data of the Dutch national register…

So why not take 15 in Poland instead of 700 in the Netherlands? Any indication the Poles are less trustworthy than Dutch?

One problem with images is that where a text generator's output could be nonsensical or ungrammatical, the output of an image generator can be nightmarish. See the Face Like an Escher Drawing in the article. I'm not sure I want to spend a hour looking at the outputs of the generator to select the good images and drop the bad ones.
No its on a x free server. rm, mv, cp dont work.

I agree the low level stuff should never care, they are always just binblobs in kernel, and should be. Though there are certainly still bugs caused by encoding changes of some conf file gets read by it.

The advantage of forcing it on a filesystemlevel was that the gigantic pile of old material with varying encoding at least was consistently off between locales rather than working for the people who used it most, and fail in the rare but critical cases for the people who rarely worked on it. Basically forcing people to fix their shit.
If you dig deep enough, many of the peer-reviewed papers are unreproducible.
It's pretty much impossible to install macOS on an external drive on M1 Macs. Really sucks, I agree.

The best you can do is create a separate APFS partition (not volume) to install on, but it's still dicey.

For a beginner Labview can be a great step up.

Back in 1991 I worked on Labview at a university lab. It seemed amazing for the time.

For a teenager migrating from Basic - Labview seemed a fantastic improvement.

It felt incredibly powerful to draw boxes and wires to make multiple scientific instruments gather data.

I do remember spending a lot of time on alignment, plus there was no code revision at the time...

However, the lab moved to custom C based workflow. It was great on a personal level - writing low level drivers etc.

Part of the reasoning was that at some point the scientists needed a custom UI and it was actually easier to create one with C than with Labview.

How to set up neovim 0.5
It really does! Thanks so much for explaining it so clearly.

It also helps me understand why people like the one in the article want to believe that interpretation or recasting of emotional responses might be retrainable. It does sound like it would be advantageous if that were true! If I could convince myself that whatever physical response I was feeling was due to a positive emotion, I can see why I would self-report feeling happier.

On the other hand, it reminds me of my experience with CBT after my sister and nephew died. My therapist kept trying to challenge me to think about the situations in my life in a way that made me something other than sad. But it all felt so much like I was lying to myself that I eventually quit going. Maybe that model is helpful for other kinds of depression when the events really are more neutral, but it rang awfully hollow with appropriate situational grief.

Not only did I have no hope of convincing myself I was something other than profoundly sad, I didn't want to. Being that sad in that period was necessary in a "the only way through it is through it" sense.

Maybe that's part of what's left out in this author's approach. Unless you're one of the people who found out isolation and interacting by screens actually suits you, maybe this last year and a half should be a period of sadness and anxiety.

And yet none of your argument applies to smoking, because it affects those around not just the smoker and imposes extraordinary costs on non-smoker’s insurance bill.

Seems clear we can, and do, forbid individuals from physically and financially harming the community by their ‘personal’ choices. It is their body and their right to do as they wish — perhaps only as long as it harms no others who have the right to be unharmed.
Yeah it's not great on Mac either. I have pretty much standard Firefox installation with only Ublock Origin added and it's extremely easy to get 16" Macbook Pro hot when Safari handles the same load without too much heat.

I've heard the US being catalogued as a 'state-nation', which always sounded appropriate since the main locus of identification is the state and its laws rather any nation.
While I agree that India is not a nation in the sense of the article, India had already been under varying levels of political union prior to colonisation, unless we consider the Mamluks, Mughals, etc. as colonisers in the broadest sense. In fact, I've often heard the truism that the post-colonial effect on the Indian subcontinent was not so much characterised by the artificial federalisation of nations, but rather their artificial separation—in India on the one side, and East and West Pakistan on the other.
The election is also far less influential, because there will always be a coalition in power, where sometimes single-seat differences (often resulting from weird specialties of the election system like Ueberhangmandate and Ausgleichsmandate) decide on the (non-)viability of some option.

And all the election programme of a party is very much up for discussion in coalition talks: A famous example of a coalition compromise: 2005 SPD promised "leave VAT at 16%", CDU promised "VAT raise to 18%". Their compromise? raise VAT to 19%.

The election is the boring part, the talks right after the election decide what will happen.

Modern codecs detect noise, filter it out and add back artifical noise at the decoder (especially audio codecs can do this with all kinds of noise). I think back in the day, video compression would likely not have an issue as noise is high frequency and if you're compressing images, that's the first thing to go, you'd just get a blurrier image.

It's not journal refusing to publish a controversial finding, but publishing insufficiently reviewed highly flawed paper, giving it high profile exposure.

Using external components is pretty hard. The interfaces between them are pretty complicated and abstraction layers are expensive. There are also different policies in different browsers, e.g. Firefox is much more into using Rust than Chrome is, for obvious reasons.

Firefox does use Skia though.
I agree with the majority of what you're saying, but like so many wars throughout history, surely superior weaponry played a huge role in the conquests? Particularly here where the difference is so large. Not the only role, certainly, and maybe not the biggest (compared to disease), but a very sizable one still. I struggle to imagine Spanish success had the weapons been reversed.

It doesn't. Jamming TCAS or ILS systems doesn't cause crashes. At worst, a go-around and increased workload in the Tower.

But since you're disabling safety equipment or their redundancies, in practise it's rightfully treated as harshly as it is. TCAS almost never activates in practise but if your HAM radio jams it and a crash happens... You disabled that redundancy to prevent accidents.

And such a thing has never been achieved with code. Besides very often the texts such an ai creates are non-sensical. And they are very short. Writing a few pages of text would equivalent to small tool of a few hundred lines. Or about the same as building a wooden shed. You don't need much skill for that. Come back when an AI can write multiple internally consistent books such as LOTR and the Dilation or the Harry Potter series. That's the scale of architecting a system.
How do you know what’s happening? Because you read a single biased article? Quitting abruptly is not the proper way to handle this.

I am not sure how to say this best, it probably sounds negative but I don’t mean it that way. It is really interesting because using these tools abstracts away the talent/skills part of creating art - you say your idea, and get the computer to keep showing you completed pieces until you find what you meant, or at least something you found interesting. It reminds me a bit of the role of the DJ to do the searching and curating, but not actually create the music.
