> Making tables responsive is utterly hellish.

It really is.

I briefly considered sticky/frozen columns, but I wanted sticky headers too - which I think are important too. In your NBA example it's difficult to tell what the numbers exactly mean without scrolling back to the top. I researched a few options some time ago, but all of them were complicated or flat out not working. Datatables.js had a crazy workaround: the fixed columns were separate tables styled to look like they are part of the main table.

I ended up with a summary view that had just 3 columns, so no side scrolling was necessary. There was a filter option, where users could select other columns that interested them. Not perfect, but it turned out ok.

The hunt continues.
Your "very rich, very powerful" comment is unfounded and a weak attempt to make it seem like a conspiracy. It's the tens of millions of basic, everyday middle-class homeowners who freak out when anything related to their home changes negatively -- lower values, higher taxes, "wrong people" moving into the neighborhood, HOA rules not followed, school system grades declining, traffic increasing, etc etc
> macOS isn't doing anything special that Linux et al. aren't doing.

MacOS isn't doing anything Linux and others aren't doing, or MacOS isn't doing anything those others can't do?

That is, do we actually know how well tuned MacOS is for these cores and their capabilities, or is that an assumption? I thought I had read there were some specific instructions in the chip that were either new to it or were more aggressively used by MacOS to get additional energy savings or performance gains.
Maybe it does, but personally, I get the most enjoyment out of coffee (or anything else) if I don't try to over-optimize. Good coffee in a french press with good enough water? Delicious!

(Whenever I vouch for a comment - and typically, as here, I don't also up-vote, because that's different - I feel the need to explain, so here goes.)

I've vouched for this, because it seems like something some people obviously disagree with politically, but not something that there's any reason to flag. (Though down-voting for disagreement is, however some (myself included) feel about it, explicitly allowed.)

I'm not American, I've never used Parler (I've just about heard of it, know that it has far-right associations), don't care much for US-specific politics.

I just think, agree or disagree, this is a reasoned comment that doesn't deserve flags.
> It's hypocritical to be calling people out for using terms correctly and then misuse the term backdoor.

No, it's not because it is another instance. Someone can have one thing right and another thing wrong. And whatever the true meaning of "E2EE", its use in this case is misleading at best, so I'm pretty sure that the profession does not approve of it.

I am not making such an implication.

In my opinion, Blender's software quality is simply lacking in some very basic areas. At the same time, it is great in some other areas. I absolutely do not suggest that commercial or proprietary programs are generally better in that regard.

I only wanted to emphasize the point in one of the parent comments that it is critical, even for established software with large user bases, to get the basic features right and stable and support it by some anecdotal experience.
Sounds like a useful project.

> It's all in one file too, that shouldn't be too bad.

Fewer files is not necessarily better.

The guiding principle in my mind is reduction of entropy. If splitting one file into multiple files makes sense in the brains of the beholders it is a good thing.
Probably highly depends on where you are.

Tap water could also improve the taste the way NY tap water supposedly makes the pizza taste good.
Regarding your long lines issue - from your description it sounds instead like an unicode issue which I also ran into a while back.

What happens is that your main programming font does not have the unicode characters, so Emacs falls back to searching all your fonts for each character it can't find, which is slow if it has to search through many different fonts.

The solution is to ensure you have symbol fonts installed - see the list of fonts here: https://github.com/rolandwalker/unicode-fonts

The overwhelming majority of programs have no particular performance requirement; whatever is most convenient is fast enough. That might mean writing in a scripting language, even bash.

Of the rest, the overwhelming majority of what most programs do has no particular performance requirement, so whatever is most convenient is fast enough. Usually only a small kernel of the program needs any attention to performance.

In such kernels, the overwhelming majority yield to very ordinary techniques, because (e.g.) they build their structures at startup, and just use them afterward, or only allocate occasionally.

The few remaining cases demand that you be smart, and make full use of the flexibility and power of the language and environment. If the language is not up to the job, you're stuck.

Going straight to mmapping hugetlb pages is a rookie mistake. Failing to mmap storage when the problem calls for it is another.

C++ and Rust are distinguished by supporting development at all of these levels. "Modern C++" does not imply confining yourself to any of them. A mature programmer uses the tools at hand as needed to meet requirements, without wasting time and without agonizing over ideology. Rust offers no advantage over C++ in this.

Isn't certificate pinning what keeps my employer from MITM'ing my personal email session on their network?
That’s the only comment there I’m unsure about - bottled water is pretty much filtered tap water in most places. There’s direct spring water and rain water you can use - but they have varying minerals again, and then are you distilling water for pure H2O? I actually don’t know what the author means here.

I do concur with consistency and then changing only one variable at a time - beans, temps, ground amount & size, water type(?), extraction time / length / size. It’s probably something I haven’t paid any attention to and have my favourite spots to get coffee from.
That's (probably) correct for the population as a whole, but the case is much less clear as far as kids are concerned.

For example, look at the 0-14 graph of excess deaths at https://euromomo.eu/graphs-and-maps. It would be very hard to say that 2020 and 2021 are any different from any other year as far as kids are concerned. During that time we had all sorts of lockdown on, lockdown off, masks on, masks off, vaccines, school open, school close, but the graph stays within its normal pre-covid variance irrespective of all these interventions.

Yes! Water is the main ingredient, with that said tap water might be fine if you like the taste of your tap water. If the tap water tastes bad your coffee will not be as good as it could be.

Most higher end grocery stores in the US now carry locally roasted beans. As long as you check the roast date you will be fine.

But to expand on that point, pay attention to origin and roast style. Mass produced coffee is like any other fungible commodity, but craft coffee is much more varied. Coffee may not be as diverse as teas but it’s definitely more than dark roast arabica beans.
My best advice, put just a small pinch of kosher salt in the carafe before brewing. It will help tamp down some of the bitterness, if you don't like that

Pretty sensible, but it kinda implies there’s exactly one way to enjoy coffee, which I think might not be true. Starting with that ratio, I’ve found that as time goes on from the date is roasting I need to up the dose to get a good cup. Then eventually I switch over to a French press because it becomes impossible to get a good pour-over, maybe 7-10 days after roasting. At that point you’re making a different thing. Also the French press is pretty indifferent to ratio; you’re just deciding how wired you want to get.
That is from 2002 right?

And lets add delicious is very subjective and different folks have different standards and that is ok. But sometimes it’s good to try a different taste as we might like it more, one never knows... I personally am not interested into being a coffee purist because I cannot make much difference anyway, maybe its my taste buds, I don’t know but and find no reason to bother improving something I like good enough..
>You can duplicate the buffer side by side with the original buffer and in each window point will be at a different location.

I actually attempted that last night. It doesn't work unless you disable completion frameworks like company/LSP because as soon as a completion event triggers, both buffers snap to the completion location.
I've got a question on Waymo. Say you're an old person who takes quite a bit of time to exit the vehicle. Is there a button outside to indicate you're clear of the vehicle? Or are you 3/4 out when it gets another ride, slams the van door on you and takes off at 45 mph with you hanging out.

I have seen many descriptions of the tech, some of it at a pretty high level on how it navigates but never anything how it ensures that the passenger has had a successful exit.
Grinding the beans before brewing instead of buying pre-ground gets you 80% of the way there. If you're lazy and/or don't want to become a coffee snob, just get a grinder, grind whole beans, and call it a day.

The non-tech skills of how commercial software development actually works in an actual organisation are really important, and the only way of learning them is on the job.

They are actually. iCloud backup stores the messages by default. If you go and set Messages to use iCloud sync, then they're synced end to end encrypted. Apple then removes the messages from the iCloud backup, and instead stores a backup of the end to end encryption key for Messages. If you want your messages to be truly inaccessible to Apple / agencies with warrants (and also unrecoverable after losing end to end encryption access), then you have to turn off iCloud backup.

Apple's documentation needs to be a little clearer on this but the system is basically designed with the accurate notion that the biggest footgun for 90% of users is not "the government was able to access my messages with a warrant" but rather "I lost access to my end to end encrypted messages".

Looking at functional languages helped me understand the point of all a little better, to the point where I write completely different imperative code now. I'm much better at reducing state, leveraging static calls / libs etc..

But I'll probably never use a functional language in production.

The Rust borrowchecker is an awesome idea, I don't quite like Rust and don't want to use it, but I'm excited for the concept to be introduced into established or newer languages - and it helped me reason about my own programs a little bit.

I pour about 1500 ml water over about 50 grams of coffee. It’s fine. It tastes good for some time.

Hi

The issue is most bots setup instructions include adding them with tons of privileges including admin even if they don't need it. Then they get private channel access and can log those. This is not really apparent to most (non-engineering) people.

I think bots that can read messages, should always be self hosted instead of some random 3rd party.

Most bots just post updates and responds to commands. / Is the way to go.

> a 1 TB SSD will never have more than 1 TiB of flash

It's a bit more complicated than that. None of the quantities precisely correspond to the definitions of 1TB = 1000^4 or 1TiB = 1024^4 bytes. A "1TB" drive will have a host-accessible capacity of 1,024,209,543,168 bytes.

The NAND chips on a consumer 1TB drive will collectively have a nominal capacity of 1TiB (1,099,511,627,776), but that's more of a lower bound; the actual capacities those chips add up to will be higher. If we assume defect-free flash and count the bits used for ECC in order to get an idea of how many memory cells are physically present, then we get numbers as high as 1,335,416,061,952 bytes for our 1TB drive. If we don't count the space reserved for ECC, then we're down to about 1,182,592,401,408 bytes on defect-free flash, and 1,172,551,237,632 after initial defects (taken from a random consumer TLC drive in my collection).

So that means the SSD is starting out with about 14.48% more capacity to work with than it provides to the host system—considerably more than the 9.95% discrepancy between the official definitions of 1TB and 1TiB. Of course, that 14.48% will be reduced as the drive wears out, and the low-grade flash used in thumb drives and bargain barrel SSDs from non-reputable brands will tend to have more initial defects.
Really depends on the tap water and might be mostly due to chlorine. As someone who drinks distilled water almost exclusively, it's surprising how apparent the chlorine is when I occasionally have to the drink tap water in my area. Chlorine is basic while coffee is acidic, and chlorine is just pretty reactive in general, so it would be surprising if chlorine didn't affect the flavor of and in a negative way.
>This seems like a decent example for linguistic categories limiting the thinkable categories.

You're conflating the convenience of backing up vs being able to access data even with lost recovery keys.

People are certainly choosing convenience over privacy in that any backup is preferable to no backup.

However, Apple does not give the option to choose E2E or not so users cannot make that choice of privacy vs convenience. You're assuming that people choosing iCloud over not-iCloud means people do not want E2E. It may be the case that people prefer E2E but this is not evidence of it.

Furthermore, I don't believe iCloud backups were ever E2E and that it was a feature that was removed. Apple states which iCloud services are E2E[0] and these services I'd argue are pretty straightforward to setup and not lose. Most of the time you don't need a recovery key, just to be logged in on another device.

Even if it is the case that most users do not want E2E, there's certainly a large audience (outside of just the HN bubble) that do want it. They could make it optional.

> It makes my day when people do this. Getting a paper published is a huge slog with overwhelmingly negative feedback, so it feels great to know that someone actually cares about what you wrote.

Wait, I don't get this. Probably this is very dumb, pardon my nonacademianess. My first thought is: then why don't you just host it on your own website? Then you can see exactly how many people download it. Heck, it could even be in an accessible HTML format (I'd love this instead of basically-image formats like PDF) and you can check if people leave the page after 5 seconds or if there are 30 minutes worth of mouse movement events. Not to say that you need to track this all identifiably, but the server could ingest "user still active on page" events and aggregate that per IP address or something until the session goes cold, then convert it to a mere "visitor #9001, stayed 27 minutes". I'm probably already overthinking this because I've never seen anyone host their own paper in the first place, nor any other format than PDF. Why doesn't anyone do that?

Sending an email to request the paper is much slower than just having access (be that through sci-hub, a friend that you can see is online and whose university still supports the publisher system, etc.), so I don't think that's a good solution even if I understand perfectly why you love to hear of your readers. Imagine you had to email the authors of every link here on HN every time you think a headline sounds interesting; it's just not a solution to paywalls with ridiculous costs per article.

Definitely not distilled. Most of the best coffee cities around the world have tap water with dissolved solids around 150ppm. If you’re in a place like mine in Phoenix, the tap water is like 500+ppm, so we use RO and demineralize with something like Third Wave Water (or you can make your own for cheap). It’s super fussy, but the taste difference is real.
