Awesome! Definitely did not intend to make it sound like SerenityOS doesn't care about modern affordances.

That's not strictly true. I'm sure thst GitHub contributed to the awareness of git among and less technically experienced especially in recent years, but use of version control systems has always been the norm in mid to large codebases and git became popular because it improved greatly on the version control systems that came before it.

Another big factor contributing to it's popikaroty was that the Linux kernel (that even when git came out was a pretty big codebase already) also used it to great success.

The only real credit that can be given to GitHub in my eyes is that it allows individuals to more easily host remote repos.
"Stock options used to be an enticing form of ownership, now it’s a crapshoot: you’re gambling that you won’t get screwed."

I've had options and equity and RSU's and all sorts of things. Even diluted but still owned 11% of a company when I exited.

In 25 years of tech and startups I have probably received about $30k total in compensation related to equity.

Yes, this point is lost on a lot of people here. Even if a bank gave me a huge mortgage for an ‘adequate’ house, what if I get fired? Or what if I go insane and can not keep working? It’s not easy to find another job at the same pay level.

And I’m very mindful of the global financial situation we’re in now, after Covid - rising inflation, almost every asset class already overpriced... it’s not sustainable. If they raise interest rates we’re utterly screwed..

The deer themselves are a problem in the northeast. They are greatly overpopulated and eat the native understory, preventing the next generation of trees from growing past adolescence. As the existing trees slowly die, there will be none younger to replace them.

This also clears out the competition to the benefit of non-native plants, which the deer don't eat. Some of these plants are invasive, such as japanese barberry, and render large areas untraversable. Not to mention the bramble is an excellent home for rodents, another major tick carrier.

If you want to reduce ticks, deer are a critical element of their lifecycle.

The key to this has to be supporting it cross cloud IMO -- people have the AWS vs GCP vs Azure conversation so often and I think most people know that GCP is best performance for the buck, but the other reasons to pick the other two are numerous. Might be nice to have some numbers on just how much performance differs against the others since that's one of more quantifiable things to weigh.

More seriously, i agree with most of your post but the removal of feed support in Firefox is imo no worse than the removal of ftp or gopher support. These things don't belong in a modern browser, were mostly unused, can be moved to a separate client, and the Firefox support sucked in the first place... The actual users were already using separate clients.

> but anti-fraud measures taken by the bank can mitigate that.

Not really. Anti-fraud measures by the banks usually amount to taking the hit themselves, unless they actually catch the culprit. And that's only in the case of actual fraud. In other instances, the banks' algorithm screws up and blocks your card for a legitimate transaction. Then there's the hassle of replacing your card.

In the U.S., the bank where I have my checking account can print cards in the branch, but many more make you wait for the ever-worsening postal service to deliver you a new one.

Because GC will pause threads while requests are being served, this leads to latency spikes at the higher percentiles.

It introduces a whole distinct type of complexity into operating the server.

The latency of a request to your server is not just caused by the code that is ran to serve that request (which is how people intuitively would think about it), it can be caused by GC pauses that are happening because of the memory pressure caused by previous requests.

Good news. We need more native apps, which work autonomous and locally and optionally sync with servers. Examples are Git (yeah! --everything-is-local) or any decent Mail-Client. Especially what the industry usually does is not the best, but just the cheapest.

It was chosen because of the name given to the clothes by the locals.
When buying clothes, never consider Goodwill or thrift shops as an outlet when you're done with them. Only consider wearing them, repairing them as necessary, as our ancestors did for the rest of your life.

Buy only clothes that will last forever. Thrift shops receive so much more "donations" (read: garbage while the person throwing their stuff away feels good about dropping their garbage on the less fortunate).

There are needy people who can use help clothing themselves. It does not help them to flood Africa with our waste, which buying cheap clothes contributes to.

It seems unlikely at this point that there are unforeseen long term side effects. Historically vaccine side effects have emerged within a few weeks to months of vaccination [0].

I’m not personally ruling it out 100%, but is there even a proposed mechanism through which vaccine side effects could emerge like years later?

while (running)
{
static std::uint32_t simulation_time{0U};
std::uint32_t const real_time = SDL_GetTicks();

process_input();

while (simulation_time < real_time)
{
simulation_time += 16U;
update(16U);
}

render();
}

As I understand it, the inner while loop's is essentially playing "catch up" with the outer while.
For simplicity's sake, let's assume that simulation_time is incremented to 1 in the inner while (simulation_time += 1U).
Further, let us assume that simulation_time is 42 in the first iteration. Now, the inner while needs to execute 42 times until it fails the loop condition (42 < 42).

On the second iteration, simulation_time is equal to 58 (42 + 16). The inner while executes (42 < 58) 16 times now.

On the third iteration, simulation_time is equal to 59 (58 + 1). The inner while executes (58 < 59) 1 time.

The real_time cannot stay the same, as it polls the number of ticks since SDL was initialized. So apparently, simulation_time is always smaller than real_time.

(If for some reason, real_time isn't incremented in an iteration, then the inner loop will not get executed. However, I don't see a case where it can happen.)

Now, inside the update function there is a position update akin to current_position += speed * 16U. Now with the above iterations:

- The first iteration, causes 42 update calls (so current_position is updated 42 times as well).

- The second iteration, causes 16 update calls.

- The third, calls update 1 time.

So we are advancing the position of something variable times. (We are also executing the inner while in variable amounts.)

Maybe I am missing something here, but why doesn't the non-constant number of updates cause jitter? I really don't understand why it works at all to be honest. I am trying to understand it fully.
The article doesn’t say that. But, looking at, for example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nations_and_IQ, you’ll find that scientific consensus is something like ‘ Any conclusions drawn from analyses which use these data are therefore unsound, and no reliable evolutionary work should be using these data”.

And I don’t even understand[0] why you feel the need to bring some racist theorizing from the 70s into it? Yes, I would believe there are many people with severe mental retardation that are, nonetheless, happy. That doesn’t mean, however, that I won’t try to avoid head trauma.

0: I’m kidding… I know exactly why you keep bringing up supposed IQ differences between ethnicities in your comments. But, unfortunately, HN considers it totally ok to say “look at Africa and how stupid but happy they all are” as long as you make it sound sciency, while calling out such racism is considered ill-tempered.
> Ownership is underrated

You meant perhaps overrated? At least in my experience so far in the tech industry, in all the companies I have worked for they always praise "ownership" as in: "as an engineer you own a product from conception to development to deployment to maintenance"... but they never talk about money. There is nothing like "If the company goes well and since you own part of it, here you have a bonus!" Nop, at least in Western Europe is not like that. You behave as if you must own the company, but you get no benefits at all; so basically: work more for the same money.

It's because of components.

Web app dev has started focusing on single, separate, reusable components instead of trying to design everything on the page at once.

Often, in these components, the HTML, CSS, and JS is still separated, but now (theoretically) you can plug that component in anywhere (even a different app) and, as long as you feed it the right data, it should just work.

The description for go vet says, "it should be used as guidance only". Go vet is in fact a linter (go lint is also a linter, but one focused on style).

So what you're doing there is adding a control to try to mitigate the consequences of a language failing. Go doesn't actually prevent you from getting this wrong, but a linter such as go vet can flag cases where it suspects you screwed up, and maybe you'll catch the worst mistakes most of the time this way and by having usage conventions.

We shouldn't mistake this for equivalent capability. The complicated cases that tempt people to ignore or switch off such linting are exactly the cases most likely to have an undetected problem.

So this is "RAII like" only in the sense that "Just remember to do it properly" is RAII like, and we could make exactly the same claim for C.

And it's a crying shame that you are obviously unaware of the difference between 'authoritarianism' and 'totalitarianism'.

Here's a hint:

Saudi Arabia, Iran, and North Korea are 'totalitarian' - they attempt to control every aspect of the lives of their citizens/subjects:

Dressing (Compulsory Hijabs for muslim women in Saudi Arabia & Iran. Western-Style dressing, e.g. miniskirts, forbidden in North Korea),

Food (alcohol prohibited in Iran/Saudi Arabia),

Behaviour/Lifestyle (Watching South Korean movies/dramas a punishable offence in North Korea. Public kissing between unmarried couples a punishable offence in Saudi Arabia),

etc.

While China, Russia, Vietnam, Morocco, etc are 'Authoritarian'.

So next time, please attempt to educate yourself before coming here to show off your ignorance.

You are correct - as a person who cares deeply about free speech, I certainly place less value on basic decency.

To my mind, the correct response to violations of decency is giving people strong tools to screen and filter out content they don't like. The wrong response is centralized enforcement. Inasmuch as centralized enforcement would be better at enforcing "basic decency", I will confirm that I place its priority at a lower level than avoiding centralized enforcement.

I hold this view because in my opinion, I am far more likely to be harmed by attempts to enforce some unilateral definition of "basic decency" than the very indecency they aim to prevent. (I believe this is called the "paradox of tolerance", though few know it in that formulation.)

Separation only works for so-called leaf components: buttons, links, tabs etc. that can actually be reused.

And even then you will definitely run into issues such as "in this particular case this particular tab will look like this".

While the web was mostly leaf components (text, articles, images, links) this separation kinda worked. The moment you move into app territory, there are not that many things that are reusable and benefit from separation, because your UI is directly dependent on business logic and vice versa. And because every screen in your app is a unique view into a unique part of your functionality.
