> The US is a very non-ideal country, but it's a working one.

In many cases it definitely has strong democracy baked into it, much more than the faux-democracy presented in almost every other country in the world. But I wouldn't call it "working." The US has significant, deep-rooted problems from housing to safety -- and US foreign policy, even towards US citizens, is rotten to the core.

Of course that's a bit of a guessing game, but I think "sonst" could be a good candidate. It means the same as otherwise, is short (short form of "ansonsten") and I can see a hasty translation turning it into else. An "or else" might have made more sense, however that's two separate words.

The next evolution of the terminal (text array of characters with positioning drawing escape codes) was the graphics array of pixels with drawing API calls. The problem with graphics arrays is when you try to run them over a remote connection. For low bandwidth situations, you end up with hacks like downgrading to 8 bit color or disabling mouse-move events, both of which make some interfaces less usable. Then you also get the problem of scripting, where there isn’t a consistent way to deliver input to the applications. HTML and HTTP can be seen as yet another implementation of portable networkable user interfaces, and they are easier to script than graphical apps, but in the end, writing a web app or client is still a hundred times more effort than printing text on a terminal.

Many people have thought of many ideas more advanced than terminals, but the terminals persist due to their superiority at just being simple, flexible, and fast.

It is absolutely possible to “make a better terminal” though. But anyone who does has an uphill battle for adoption.

(context: I was bound and determined to make a better terminal 20 years ago, but eventually gave up on the idea after getting familiar with existing tech and deciding it was good enough for me. Same with Bash, though I still think it’s a horrible language and should be replaced eventually)
I don't think its 100% fair to blame Apple for the business metadata - and I'm sure they're aware of it and working on it.

The opening times data on Google comes from business owners who create an account on Google and then create a Business Profile (in rare cases, Google scrapes it from the website but it needs to be presented in a specific machine readable form[1] which, let's be honest, most websites do not, especially small businesses).

Apple probably just need to spread the word more that they have an equivalent mechanism in place.[2]

Here, I can't help thinking that the painting is better without Cupid getting in the way....

What makes Vermeer so modern (or timeless) is that it tells a story simply by the power of the painting: the girl's face, her pose, the reflection, the quality of the light. The symbolism of the Cupid seems unnecessary and clunky, as if he was innovating but still hadn't broken free of a traditional approach.

Or am I just suffering from the bias mentioned in the parent?
> mostly useful if you have a device with stylus

>the COVID situation in Florida, which has been steadily improving ever since schools opened

There have been articles about how Florida recently switched to reporting deaths with the date of death, so it seems that it will continually appear that the rate plummeted recently. As time goes by, though, the graph will be filled in. Maybe people are being deceived by this.

>pointless hygiene theater at this point

You can be blasé about covid-19 and masks or not, you can be distrustful of all the random "experts" or not, but if you are, then it's "pointless theater" squared to spend time, money, and energy arguing, debating publicly, and fighting in court on exactly what we should do. It doesn't matter!

Usually you want people to know so they aren't confused why the account acts werid i.e. unhuman.

Photographic composition consists of:

- the room, subjects placement
- how they are lit
- camera position and angle
- focal length (strengthens or flattens the perspective effect depending on the room)
- other optical effects (depth of field, long time exposure, bokeh, flares, ...)

The last point probably wasn't relevant for Vermeer, but if he would have used a Camera Obscura, getting all the former points correct on a way that produces a compelling image is not easy.

I could also imagine that he used a camera obscura to study and understand perspective and light, but painted without it, simply because that seems a little bit more practical.
"Use the radar, satellite and wind measurement"

Thanks for the info.

This malfunctioning behaviour doesn't seem that uncommon though. Here [1] is another story from 2016 with the same root cause.

I'd like to know how widespread that non-standard behaviour really is.

I could imagine that many small businesses, e.g. cafes, restaurants etc, use cheap consumer switches to manage their guest wifi. Those would seem to be vulnerable.

Another thing: Maybe this is nonsense, but couldn't you spoof PAUSE frames coming from another MAC address than your own, e.g. on wifi? If that's possible, you could disrupt service for selected other network participants even on well-functioning switches (provided you know the victim's MAC address).

Even when their fact-checkers are utterly wrong, they will just update stating "needs more context".

I've lately been contemplating whether writing shorter content regularly is better than writing long thoughtful content once in a while. Your work gives some motivation.

I have some questions,

1. How do you differentiating writing short content on social media vs your blog, Because If I have anything short to communicate I do so HN, Twitter, Reddit and so If I have to write about it again on my blog it feels bit disingenuous.

I saw your twitter handle and it looks like you're using just for broadcasting your content? Aren't you worried that you'd be caught in a bubble? Social media for what it's worth are good source for counter thought, Though often it's in the form of harsh criticisms.

2. SEO: How are the Search Engines treating your blogs for the small content length? I see that my long writes have been favored by the search engines. Did you see having images/videos in your content making difference?

3. Would you like to reveal your opening rates of your newsletter email? I'm curious whether shorter content results in decent open rates(While the average industry rate for newsletter is abysmal, Yet I do recommend everyone to have their own newsletter as it's the only thing which can save your blog if the Search Engine gods decides to shadow ban. Federated email for the win again!)

I'm pretty sure it's "not a web app" in most contexts, but that's an interesting point I hadn't thought of before.

What do you mean by "machine code" though? To me, the most native you can get is a Java/C++ app that uses Android APIs directly. Anything lower is systems development, something not generally possible for normal developers.

For desktop browsers there are also no application launch icons.

Probably has most to do with the limits of the UX of a phone. Pulling up a browser and typing in a url, hitting autocomplete is done in 2 seconds. On mobile everything is so much more painful, a lot more desire for one click wonder buttons
For me, opening and dealing with the browser and web apps on mobile is more of a hassle than doing the same thing on desktop. On the latter, I have my browser with pinned tabs with the apps I use (email apps, project management apps, etc.) and it just stays there.

Trying to do the same thing on mobile is a pain, so it's more convenient to use the mobile apps there.

I set up Kodi on a Pi about 9 years ago and more recently switched to a Le Potato (same SoC as the Kindle Fire). With a powered USB hub, a USB DVB-T receiver and a DVD reader, it's basically the same functionality as a smart TV and a DVD player (including streaming services since there's WideVine support). Before it was using OSMC, now LibreELEC.

It's super cheap, it's secure because it doesn't have any useless cloud services, and it can also play retro games on emulators (not using Kodi's gaming support though, it's very immature). Maintenance is zero except when I decide to do an upgrade, which is once every 3 years or so.

Feel free to name the country with more than 100 million people, a continent-sized geography, and a multitude of ethnicities that works "better" than the US. Heck, raise the minimum population to 130 million and use that as the sole criterion.

It was along the lines that an old programmer at Microsoft liked Fortran henceforth all his programs written in Assembler were full of macros that emulated Fortran. When the old programmer retired and one of his programs had to be maintained the new guy, unable to read that Assembler full of macros, simply took the executable and disassembled directly and used that as source.
