I don’t know what the author was hoping to accomplish by all but advocating for tax avoidance, but wow, what a poor argument against this proposal. The real issues are that this 1. would cause the creation of another billions-of-dollars citizen surveillance machine, and 2. creates a crushing regulatory burden on small businesses.
I'm not sure what gives you the impression that there is "no composition". It's been common practice on many large scale Tailwind builds that I've been a part of to use the @apply directive[0] to create reusable components when appropriate.

Likewise. I only ever had an Acorn Atom. My tech friends had Sinclairs and then upgraded to BBC computers. (Not an option for a working class kid like me).

I was an early enthusiast and originally wanted a Nascom One. I was so frustrated when they went bust, but the (August?) 1980 edition of Practical Computing included the first advert for the Acorn Atom so I switched my attention to that.

Do you mean that renewables (wind, solar, what else?) can't produce enough energy for the industry is just an opinion not a fact? I'm happy to see the data that would refute it.

I recently (~6 months ago) retired from engineering. I was rather unfit and had also gained a bit of weight. I started running 30 minutes in the morning every 2nd day.

It is painful in the beginning and you probably have to alternate between walking and running for a while. For the first month and half I only did 3k runs and then changed to 5k. 5 months in I can easily run 5k in less than 30 minutes and I look forward to the next run every time.

The mind does play tricks and attempts to convince you to stay in bed. I have a rule that I at least should get up, put on my running clothes and if not else go for a walk. It always ends up being a run.

Also I seem to consistently lose 2kg per month. I generally eat what I want, with the exception of sweets, cake, ice cream, etc.
Are the blue bullet points and the balck ones TODOs?
Yes, but they are adapted to relatively frequent but lower intensity fires. As the article says, for the last century there was a policy of fire suppression, so the "undergrowth" (and from the perspective of a Sequoia, pretty much everything else is undergrowth) is much more dense than it usually was. So if a fire gets out of control, it may get more intense than the Sequoias are adapted to.
Perhaps they don't want people to use their devices for child abuse? Radical idea I know.

Smart sand that learns like neural nets. Recipe goes like this: Mix semiconducting grains and metal and solder bits. Apply electric pattern at one end of the bucket and shake the bucket until some useful pattern appears at the other end. Then you apply much higher current between those patterns. Solder bits melt and form more permanent neural routes. Repeat until the device works as expected.
Then we all benefit by having less carbon being added to the atmosphere every year.
I really dislike comments like these, because it removes personal responsibility while at the same time blaming everyone for the actions of individuals and the consequences of national or corporate policy. And it low-key advocates in favor of reducing or removing the human population entirely.

The components are open source and you can use them any way you see fit under the MIT license terms.

The pro version includes fully coded pages and layouts (ie. dashboard layout, landing pages, e-commerce pages) that can accelerate your development even more. We also work based on a Figma file that is based exclusively on the default Tailwind utility classes and you can get that too in the pro version (although there is also a free one posted on the Figma community with the base components).

I think we should create a page comparing licenses and making it clearer.

The thing you're ignoring is that available information shapes people. Would I be a programmer if I didn't know computers existed? Definitely not. It's not like one day people wake up and think "biohacking is cool, I'll go looking for 'underground' platforms that host content about it". People's interests are shaped by the content they are offered, ubiquitous monopoly platforms like YouTube have way more power than you might think if you view them as simple hosting platforms. Discovery is the real deal.

This might sound good if you're living in the jungles of Belize. But let's be realistic. The average individual and small business owner cannot meet their day-to-day financial obligations by dealing only with unregulated counterparties that transact in crypto. And the vast majority of people do not wish to live a life where they're exchanging USBs for cash using crypto "plugs" they meet in fast food parking lots.

Furthermore, in the latter scenario, that cash is eventually going to get deposited back into a regulated institution (to pay credit card bills, etc.). If anything, a person depositing thousands of dollars in cash on a regular basis is going to draw more scrutiny, especially if they're not running a cash business.

Which leads to the obvious solution: you're going to buy that Wendy's where you're exchanging your USBs for cash. Congratulations. You're now officially a money launderer!
> To me this says more about the development practices of that team than about BEM

Well you could say that BEM requires strict development practices to work well. This is could be a downside for many teams, seeing as this comes at a cost which grows as your team/product do. Organizational overhead is a significant factor when considering a technical solution.

> Meanwhile Tailwind is functionally equivalent to this:

It's a funny platitude, similar to the argument that "Tailwind is just like inlining CSS" but it's of course overly simplified. Variable support, hover/active/other states, and of course breakpoint-specific variants for all of the classes making responsive styles possible.

> Also since there's no composition, just by looking at the codebase it's not clear if a change is something that should propagate to other, similar instances or land only there.

Even with BEM, you usually store components in partials/templates to keep everything contained and to reduce duplication. So in this regard the composition is the same. You import a button in your code, you aren't writing out this every time:

<a class="button" target="nofollow" onClick="...">
<span class="button__icon"><svg ...></span>
<span class="button__inner--withIcon">Blah</span>
</a>

The composition happens within the templates themselves.

EDIT: I'll follow up and say that the "composition" for Tailwind components works very similar to CSS Modules (CSS is scoped to a component, and delivered with the component itself), or StyledComponents (similar to CSS Modules, but built into the React component itself). But with a few more benefits:

1. Does not rely on a build system to bundle/deliver styles
2. Less abstraction; no need to create scoped classes even (in the case of CSS Modules)
3. Works outside of the JS/React ecosystem

> One disaster...

Okay, let's look at Wikipedia[1]. Random example. Val Di Stava Dam Italy 1985, 268 fatalities. Many, many more than were killed directly by Fukushima, but fewer than were killed by the stress of evacuation.

Read the list. More than one dam failed, but the fatalities are accepted fatalistically and shrugged off. It seems like there is a double standard here.

Disclosure: I think that as of 2019 nuclear is uneconomic and not worth building, but if the choice is between nuclear and fossil fuels, nuclear wins hands down in safety terms.

I like the idea. However results take too much space vertically it's slow and cumbersome to scan through them.

I think it would benefit from using a responsive layout, allow the text expand to a wide 1000+ px, make the font smaller, so the excerpt can fit one or two lines below the links.

Google has problems but their search results layout is easy to scan.

Otherwise I genuinely wish I would use it, because the Google search's "self referential reality bubble" is really annoying.

The fact that currently available renewable energy technologies can't produce enough energy for currently existing industrial societies.
I feel that's not robust enough - what if some of your bots are missing? When we're talking millions of microscopic robots, I think we need to assume that many will break down, get misplaced, or be in a position disadvantageous for it to fulfill a designated role. A robust system cannot rely on all the robots in a predetermined ID range/set to be there - it needs to work with what's actually available.

Ideally, I imagine being able to point at a random pile of robots and make that pile do something, without knowing any of the IDs or health of individual cells up front.

So I wonder, is there a way to design the system in such a way that individual robots don't need to be micromanaged, but instead they self-assign to the appropriate role/place, without having full knowledge of the shared goal?

Imagine those experiments in making shapes from sand with standing audio waves, e.g. [0]. The grains of sand have no identity and no awareness. The person setting up the experiment doesn't care about what any individual grain of sand does. They just set up a pattern, encode it in a standing wave, and the sand moves to conform to it. I'm wondering if this kind of approach is possible, except with the robots moving on their own instead of being moved by air. And, as a next step, with a pattern being persisted in the pile of robots, instead of being supplied externally.

Curiously, the association of hand lotion with male masturbation is strongly culturally dependant — or rather, it is seemingly exclusively a US thing apparently because of the (dwindling) prevalence of male circumcision without the orthodox religious framework that usually accompanies it (and which seems to either banish or hide this feature in those cultural settings).

Cum-socks, curiously stiffened towels, copious supplies of paper towels, and sticky sheets: these are all familiar to parents of teenage boys worldwide, but the lotion thing?

It's an established trope in films and series, which is why people outside of the US 'get it', but the actual practice seems as localized as eating a Vegemite sandwich.
Aaah, what a great example of sofa advisor...

What makes you think they didn't try?

Their websites were blocked long before the regime started to name FBK as extrimists and they switched to apps particularly because apps is harder to block. They probably just didn't expect google&apple to become so much accommodating so quickly.

One of the reasons why they did what they did is because the regime said they would take the local staff as hostages if they'll fail to comply (aka "the staff is responsible for the law breaches made by the company").

Why not tax them at $1000 per year, with a full refund if you buy a full electric vehicle in the next 5 years, with a 5 year rolling max.

Who's Who
The one thing that is missing from this discussion is the actual value of any stock that the employee might have received.

The headline figure of $12B, of which maybe $1B is split between 1200 employees is almost always a fantasy.

Having been bought out by a large company, the reality is far less rosy.

If you're buying a company for both its assets, and its employees, giving all the employees "fuck you" money is a very bad play. they are going to leave and do things other than work for the new company. which means on day one you have a huge brain drain, culture shift and a hiring headache.

Therefore you need golden handcuffs. Sometimes its a year, most of the time its a lot longer.

Then we have the "headline" figures. Most of them are bollocks. Ctrl-labs supposedly was sold for $500m. It wasn't, it was significantly less than that. most peoples assumptions of what a stock option is valued at during a buyout it as much as 10x out from the actual value you'll receive. This is before we factor in the whole debt swap/priority stakes/other VC semi fraudulent share systems.

unless its an IPO, and you are given actual shares in your hands, most of the money that's talked about during buyouts is illusion.
