More tedious than HTML? That's a surprise. Java is more verbose than JavaScript it's true, but I've been using Kotlin for years and Kotlin is more concise than both. HTML doesn't even have much of a widget library beyond a few basics, so to get even close to the basics JavaFX provides you need to import a whole pile of libraries.

I'm curious to learn more about the dev console thing. The dev console is a nice thing but you're talking about breakpoints and watches. Any IDE has a great integrated debugger, and with JavaFX you can step into the entire GUI framework right now to where it issues draw calls to Direct3D or OpenGL, so it's far more debuggable than a webview. I would understand more if you were talking about things like the network explorer views, but debugging? Java debuggers are great!

Eating isolated oils is decidedly different from eating whole foods, as there are compounds that counteract each other when taken as a whole. For example, fish have long chain fatty acids which counter some effects of the Omega oils.

I think it's much easier to consume large portions of soybean oil if you're using it as an all purpose oil, than if you were just eating tofu, bean curd, natto, etc.
It's bang for buck, basically.

Consider a single (physical) twenty dollar bill. If it enters a small town (remote worker for FAANG withdraws it out of an ATM) and then immediately leaves (from the Walmart till onto an armored truck to the local city center), that's $20 in economic activity.

If it passes between five hands locally before it ends up on that truck, that's $100 of economic activity, five times as many opportunities for people to exchange what they have for what they want.

This is a toy model, there are a ton of things wrong with it, but it does illustrate a real point. In the six-hands scenario, more of the residents are offering goods and services to each other, in the two-hands scenario, everything is being provided to and by the larger economy. Less resilient, less locally-scaled, and it's easier to replace the small town with any other set of producer/consumers who offer lower prices or thinner wages.
>Java and Go are very boilerplate-y languages.

And because of the nature of boilerplate, Java has IDEs that will both generate and modify this boilerplate without thought, no AI required.

I don't remember the last time I typed the text 'class' for example. Instead I type "new Foo(someStringVar)", and then hit Alt-Enter and my IDE creates the file, the `class Foo` along with a ctor that takes a String.
Perhaps. I've lived in capitalist developing countries that were even poorer - hence people stuffing water bottles in their shirt - so I can't honestly conclude that it is the reason.
I'd argue that you need some of each - if your team if over-filled with product-focused engineers, not everyone is going to feel heard, which can tank morale. And/or you'll be having to build consensus with everyone before the first line of code gets written.

You do want a team who can kick ideas around and do what is right, but you also sometimes want the people who just sling code and love doing so, as they will keep the quality of the code itself high.
I take a little pleasure in the idea that our kids might discover some program I wrote when I was younger, and in doing so, maybe better understand the mind that made it.

right, didn't really 'fail' as a 'startup' - it just took a very long time to develop and tech continued to move/struggles to be independent and stable with manufacturer messes and giant competing companies, various interests slowing things down all while user needs changed rapidly and capabilities of platforms increased. This was really a long time ago early 00s things were very different and nowhere near mobile device era and so at the time was very noble and promising.

It's probably the only way it would work - to show top matching snippets from training data on request, with links to the source and ideally licensing information, if it can be gleaned automatically. This would also clearly show how much it is copying verbatim and what exactly is its contribution.

The funny part will be when all the human programmers who steal code will get doxed as a side effect. It shine a light on lots of skeletons in the closet.
I showed you a source earlier in the thread and you didn't respond. It is the website of AMA, where they celebrate their success in lobbying against any bill that would allow other professionals expanded capabilities.

Agreed, nice to see it's still around.
Acquire-Release seems to be an outstanding success. ARMv8 added new assembly language statements to support it... as did NVidia GPUs (clearly CUDA / PTXis moving towards Acquire-release semantics), compilers from all around, etc. etc. So many systems have implemented acquire-release that I'm certain it will be relevant into the future.

Consume-release is a failure, but it seems like it was "expected" to be a failure to some degree. Consume-release was apparently the model that ARMv7 / Older-POWER assembly designers were going for, but it turned out to be far too complicated to think about. No compiler seems to be using consume-release anywhere (instead turning consume into Acquire).

From my understanding, the Linux-kernel operations could be consume-release, but only if the compilers fully understood the implications. (But no one seems to fully understand them). Maybe a future standard will fix consume-release, but best to ignore it for now.

Anyway, ARMv8 and POWER9 have changed their assembly language to include Acq/Release level semantics.

Fully relaxed is... not a model at all and does the job spectacularly! Some people don't want any ordering what so ever, lol.

Seq-cst is basically Java's model and it works for those who don't care about optimizations (it will necessarily be slower than Acquire/release. But there's a few cases where acquire/release is a trap and Seq-cst is necessary). It doesn't work on GPUs though as GPUs don't have snooping caches / coherence IIRC. So the strongest you can get in CUDA-land is Acq-release.
I have an handicapped adult son and have been debating what to do in the long run. For those who can understand support them to the max.
Just from the people I know with adult children who CANNOT understand legal and financial issues there has to be some tunable form of guardianship that does not cost too much , does not require enormous paper work, and can last after the parent death.

Right now its self managed , Complex and expensive private trustees, or an unrevocable guardianship by an uncaring incompetent bureaucracy.
I agree. OLPC wasn't a failure in the same sense as the others. They created laptops, they got used, and a lot of people did learn a lot. It didn't succeed to the level they hoped, but that's true for almost all projects. It's easier to be critical in retrospect. OLPC did succeed in making the world a better place, and that's to be commended.
I am in exactly this situation (but at the days/weeks timescale instead of months), so thanks for posting how you resolved this, I'll try my local IRS office.

Cuba has been in shambles since, at the very least, Batista came to power in a CIA-backed coup with monetary help from organized crime. After his government was overthrown all of that money dried up and the sanctions imposed (with no attempt at diplomacy) have choked the country out until this day. Yes, what little money comes in is siphoned off by the crooked Castro government, but there's a lot more to the history of Cuba and Latin America than "communism bad."

I worked in pharma advertising for a little bit: There are two sides, consumer and clinical which I believe are about equal spends (might be wrong, but it's significant anyway). Clinical advertising is mostly used to recruit doctors to recruit patients to take part in clinicial trials, and is a necessary component of R&D. Think lots of tradeshows with fancy signage, interactive touchscreens, apps, etc.

Where do you draw the line? Is javac not a compiler?
The word we need here is "trivial". A compiler is a function (or possibly, nondeterministic process) from source code in a first language, to source in a second language. The languages can be the same, for example, in the case of metaprogramming. The identity function is a trivial compiler. Calling it a non-compiler only serves to complicate the definition of compiler, with no discernable benefit.

It's not possible in general. Figma is a drawing tool. Converting it into React is a matter of interpretation.

Maybe some day AI can help with this job. Until then, apply sweat of the brow, or use a tool that specifies what happens with varying content and viewport sizes. There might exist a plug-in for Figma that allows specifying this, if you stick to a subset of the functionality.

You cannot look at this myopically - there are many areas of CA's policies, especially in the 1970's through 90's where the "Silicon Valley" name originates from. There is a lot of inertia from policies - like stopping a massive locomotive - and just because the policies are less steamy, it still takes a lot to stop the train. Labor pool has a magnetic catch-22 effect.

I've incorporated 2 LLCs in the past (not in CA) and it was literally a 10 minute job. Costs $50 one time fee. No recurring fees at all. Mostly online, albeit have to print out a form and mail it to the Dept of Revenue, but don't need to queue up anywhere. Opening a bank account is straight forward and takes 1 day.

There is also a lot of variation from state to state - ironically, the red states have better policies for inequality for businesses. Low regulation in this area helps the "small guy/gal" get their feet wet without much hurdles. I strongly believe in regulation based on thresholds of how large/monopolistic/oligarchic companies get. Regulations should be designed in a way that promotes methodical canopy growth but not completely cover the seedlings that are hatching on the ground.
The difference between software and hardware projects
Very happy to see this landing in Firefox!

For the people wondering what the motivation is, https://www.w3.org/TR/fetch-metadata/#intro has a good summary:

Interesting web applications generally end up with a large number of web-exposed endpoints that might reveal sensitive data about a user, or take action on a user’s behalf. Since users' browsers can be easily convinced to make requests to those endpoints, and to include the users' ambient credentials (cookies, privileged position on an intranet, etc), applications need to be very careful about the way those endpoints work in order to avoid abuse.

Being careful turns out to be hard in some cases ("simple" CSRF), and practically impossible in others (cross-site search, timing attacks, etc). The latter category includes timing attacks based on the server-side processing necessary to generate certain responses, and length measurements (both via web-facing timing attacks and passive network attackers).

It would be helpful if servers could make more intelligent decisions about whether or not to respond to a given request based on the way that it’s made in order to mitigate the latter category. For example, it seems pretty unlikely that a "Transfer all my money" endpoint on a bank’s server would expect to be referenced from an img tag, and likewise unlikely that evil.com is going to be making any legitimate requests whatsoever. Ideally, the server could reject these requests a priori rather than delivering them to the application backend.

Here, we describe a mechanism by which user agents can enable this kind of decision-making by adding additional context to outgoing requests. By delivering metadata to a server in a set of fetch metadata headers, we enable applications to quickly reject requests based on testing a set of preconditions. That work can even be lifted up above the application layer (to reverse proxies, CDNs, etc) if desired.
As rtkwe says, it can mean a range of things. Some are relatively innocuous like knowing what form to fill out, others are borderline like having worked with the relevant people before and having built up some good will, and there have been cases of outright corruption.
This is a really cheap refute. If gas taxes are regressive, then build the infrastructure so they won’t be. If poor people are dependent on cheap gas for driving to work, increase the bus coverage and frequency, build new rail lines (and electrify existing once) for congested routes, zone cheaper housing closer to where people work and build safe bike lanes, heck even subsidize electric cars if everything else is too radical. Do this along with raising gas prices and they won’t be regressive.

EDIT: And to raise the hammer home. Biden also said no to the Green new deal. The electrification of CalTrain, and the California High Speed rail are experiencing slowdowns because of lack of funding. ST3 in Seattle is at risk of being delayed because of lack of funding. Amtrak is getting the most modest of all expansions. Bus networks in mid-sized American cities are a poor as they ever were and no change in the maps. I think that gas taxes “being regressive” is not the real reason that Biden and other politicians are not raising the gas prices.

I'll assume you're asking this genuinely.

For the 'legal' part... you're generally not allowed to install whatever arbitrary software you want on other people's machines without some sort of consent, even in an Apple store. I'm not sure how much more elaboration this needs.

For the 'moral' part... he's taking a small intimate chunk of a person's life without their knowledge or consent and putting it in a picture frame because he finds it interesting and enjoyable. The reason he gives for this is "art". There's not even slight consideration of the people involved other than he considers that intimate chunk of their life and likeness to be his personal medium for "art", the same way clay or watercolors might be to a less terrifying person. Again, there are far worse ways he could create 'art' via nonconsensual intimacy, but my point is that it's fundamentally amoral to use people in that way in the first place.

What's interesting about this is that in this community we read about security researchers that do illegal (but generally not unethical) things, and about large companies that do unethical (but arguably not illegal) things. This guy does the worst of both and somehow people seem to be on his side.
The trade embargo has much to do with this. Is there a prosperous country that the U.S. has embargoed for an extensive period of time.

Why would they have executives in a country that they don't do business in?
That's not even a regulation problem per se, it's a bureaucracy issue. The only regulation here is that you need to get a piece of paper to do business. There's no complex requirement, no job-specific rules to follow, no training requirement, nothing except a piece of official paper.

Some jobs in some places may have onerous requirements for some jobs, possibly for good reason, such as having a doctorate to perform medicine, which takes a decade of hard work or so. The bureaucracy involved may be simple, you're supposed to have the diploma: if you're found to have performed medical acts without it you end up in jail. (This is not typically how it's done any more for a number of good reasons, incidentally.)

Getting a simple piece of paper is the problem. As far as regulations are concerned, this is not any more complex than buying a concert ticket. If the festival you wanted to attend turned out to be unable to do that in a timely manner, you wouldn't fault them for selling tickets. You'd fault them for sucking at a simple business task.
OLPC straddles the line between startup and social program. Given that it wasn't actively harmful [citation needed], it actually managed to produce the laptops, and they had some non-zero if modest utility, we'd have to place it in the upper ranks of the latter category. Even if it had zero impact, that would merely place it in the modal group [0], nothing to be ashamed of!
