Blazor has different modes/variants. I think the server-side variant is similar to liveview and doesn't need a .net runtime on the client.

> Alternatively, Blazor can run your client logic on the server. Client UI events are sent back to the server using SignalR - a real-time messaging framework. Once execution completes, the required UI changes are sent to the client and merged into the DOM.
I believe you Brendan!
I have never used LiveView, but I'd love to see the web moving towards this kind of interfaces. HTML over the wire is powerful! The deep integration between all the parts (Phoenix, LiveView, the HEEx engine...) is nice, and compile-time template validation looks really cool.

One thing that concerns me about doing everything over WebSockets, is that it seems you now need to keep a connection with every connected client, even if they are not doing any "highly interactive" actions. I think (in most cases) it would be more efficient to do a bunch of AJAX requests to receive those HTML chunks. Now that we have CDNs, HTTP/{2,3}, etc. the benefits of using WebSockets for everything seem less obvious.

This is what HTMX[0] does by default, and then you can use WebSockets[1] if you need it. Another great thing about HTMX is that the backend can be whatever you like, as long as you can handle HTTP requests and return HTML.

In any case, I like both approaches and I would love to see the web development ecosystem moving back to sending HTML over the wire, regardless of the framework.

Websockets are crazy fast and the BEAM has crazy fast IO (at the expense of slower CPU-bound tasks, but that is another story). LiveView also minimizes (to an obsessive degree) the amount of data that flows over the socket. The payload is about exactly the size as the exact diff being rendered in the DOM (often times this is simply the `innerHTML` of a node).

The advantage is stack simplicity. As stated in the beginning of the article, LiveView completely removes your need for any kind of API between your front and backend. It also makes it very easy (through JS hooks) to offload any interactions you want to the client if that makes more sense. But of course, if you end up offloading EVERY interaction to the client, you should be using a frontend framework--LiveView is very clear about not being suitable for every need--if you are building a super UI heavy app (like a text editor or painting app or the like), LiveView probably isn't going to cut it.

Yea..... This was flagged for a reason
> You've got a lot of recent comments on HN for this to be true. I think you use social media a lot more than you think you do, and it could be impacting you in ways that you don't notice.

The drunk driver contradiction. Drunk people are terrible and assessing how drunk they are.
And, for the past 18 months, they've had a day where they waive all fees so bands that can't play live anymore can stand a chance of making some money.
I find myself asking this question, what causes more net harm, the social impact of people abusing cocaine and associated problems or the damage caused by cocaine being high lucrative while illegal and the war on drugs.
Again, use whatever you like most, but you're mistaking a lack of conflict with Apple for a lack of control. You like the way Apple's products work for you. Great. You can own media you've produced, and don't particularly care about the distribution model of media you consume. Awesome. These are all great reasons for you to want to use Apple's stuff

Personally, I like to save media I consume, and increasingly this is contrary to the business models of media companies. It's good that Apple lets you take your photos elsewhere, but I don't want them to have access to what's on my device, and the reality of Apple's ecosystem is that they have root on and internet-connected access to your devices, at least the smartphones.

Personally, I like using tools that I can rely on staying the same. If software I use to make things I want to make changes, I can go back and get a previous version. I can go fork it and change it if I desire. With proprietary tools, you take the risk that a change will be made and you won't like it. You take the risk that they'll decide to move to a subscription model and deny you use of a tool you've already bought unless you start paying the company on a schedule, as Adobe users have experienced recently. If these possibilities have never affected you and don't bother you, by all means, use the tools and services you like

Errata Security: That Alfa-Trump Sussman Indictment
I'm on Google Cloud and Google Drive and have never had a problem like that either. I have Google One and it gives me access to humans when needed for chat, email and phone support.

I pay way less than $100/month

My evidence is as good as yours. Anecdotal.

I think the real lesson here is that you should backup your data. Simple as that.

The guy losing access to their Google account today is at fault just like the guy that lost all his data because his HD got burned a decade ago. It's just slightly easier to blame Google than to blame a faulty drive. But ultimately you are the one to blame.

Just backup your Google Drive to a S3 storage or equivalent. And maybe keep a local copy in an HD or optical media.
That's what I do for certain types of sites, such as bill-payments, and I don't lose any productivity. It does take time, yes, but there isn't enough time lost that would inhibit productivity.

> but 99% of the information you receive in the news doesn't meet the standard of pertinence

Oh, no doubt about that. Maybe add another 9.

It helps to consume it written, so you can jump over all the trash.

> It would be impossible to miss information about Covid even if you were living under rock.

But this is not the case. I know people that missed useful information because they were living under a rock. And yes, after you know what to look for, it's not hard to go get high-quality information elsewhere. But a channel for "notifications from authorities" simply does not exist... or rather, it exists, it's called "mainstream news".

Anyway, I agree that a short news cycle does indeed not help anybody and harms a lot of people.
Perhaps we need a third level of FDA approval. In addition to 'approved' and 'not approved', we could have 'safe but not demonstrated to be effective'. Drugs in the third category would be legal to prescribe but Medicare and insurance companies would not be required to pay for them.

Although in practice I guess this would probably not be very different from 'not approved', in which case it seems right for the FDA to reject ineffective drugs.

In any case, one thing we definitely do not want is to incentivize the creation of ineffective drugs, especially expensive ones.
I'm curious if "has locked my account" means just Google Drive, or if he also lost Gmail, Android functionality, Chrome profiles, Adwords, YouTube, YouTubeTV, purchased movies and tv shows, Fitbit, Nest, sites where he used federated login (DoorDash, Uber, etc).

I see, for example, his YouTube channel is up, but it's associated with 'team@armouredarchives.com', and not the personal gmail account he posted in the linked forum.

If it was the entire account, something really needs to be done with Google to force them to make these kind of actions as narrow as possible. They can really disrupt your life with a broad account lock.
> HN is social media too, lest you forget.

Is it if you don't know a single person here? That's more a message board, no?
I actually think that as a physical connector, lightning is still better than usb-c. I'm not suggesting that they should keep it around (I long for a full usb-c device life), just that it is a much less fussy connector than usb-c. I don't struggle with blindly insert a lighting cable into my phone or my iPad but frequently will struggle to do the same with a usb-c cable on my macbook pro, despite it being a reversible cable.

I've also had usb-c cables break at the stem of the device while this has never happened with lightning. I'm not certain if this is the nature of the design of usb-c or if it was simply a cheap cable that had no strain relief for the physical connector, but in either case I've never experienced a snapped lightning connector.

The problem with these government mandates is that eventually there will come a new and better connector that phone manufacturers will be blocked from implementing on their phones until after a lengthy legislative process.
Only the HTML <head> tag is being returned from server. The backend renderer appears to be timing out.
A user flagging is not the same as banning. The process that follows a flag can have human intervention and the assumption is that it does not currently in Google. As someone who worked in this space you could provide information on the process that would be valuable. Or maybe not on the basis of NDA or policy. In the former please do, and let us know the human touch points in the process end to end. If the latter, similar to your criticism for taking what OP says as granted, we cannot also take what you say as granted just by virtue of work experience you claim in a forum.

We actually do not care if Google comments or not, that is an internal policy decision for the time being. With legislation in Europe though I believe it will have to explain automated decisions and also will have to provide users with their content.

I am inclined to believe, btw, that someone who stored terrorism or other questionable material, would not be bold and stupid enough to make noise about losing access to it.
That was more or less me: I liked the place were I worked, shit I opened the office and created the team in my country, it was "my baby". However, after COVID hit, a lot of people in my team started leaving for higher paid jobs (like double the salary) and way better benefits (including working from anywhere).

Meanwhile, my boss who "did not believe in remote work" was adamant that we had to go back to the office, even after we had had 2 different COVID outbreaks.

Eventually I got an amazing offer for 2x the salary, amazing benefits and working from anywhere (also more technical and no people managing). It was a no brainer to me.
I mean they had 10,000 users and 800 arrests. That's an 8% criminality rate, it seems like they didn't entrap anyone who wasn't committing crimes anyway. Entrapment is about trapping people in a situation where committing crimes is the best option available. Selling people a secure phone does not do that.
I actually entertain a similar idea often. A service with a limited number of customers/clients/subscribers.

Enough for the developer(s) to make a living and provide quality.

It very much goes against common business sense, though.
Injection refers to content inserted into a page from outside. An example of this would be Brave's "tip" buttons on Twitter. The browser [injects] an object into the page which can trigger tipping UI in the browser when clicked. This feature didn't inject anything; it displayed an affiliate-link option in the browser's interface.

Others have claimed that Brave modified referral codes; this too is false. While some sites have attempted this as a support option (Stack Overflow briefly considered/experimented-with modifying Amazon links in questions/answers, but chose not to continue down that path), Brave never engaged in this type of behavior. This claim implies that Brave has modified the DOM of pages viewed by the user to alter the HREF of links to various sites. This is not the case, and never was the case either.

Brave simply had a short list of affiliate codes which could be presented to the user, if they matched the user's search input, as a way of supporting development of the project. No network activity involved, no data exchanged, no modifying visited pages or anything else. It was presented merely as a pre-search suggestion when relevant to the user's input.
For me I see the controversy here and I figure it could fall either way. Maybe it works, maybe it's just another hydroxychloroquine. I'm keeping an open mind. In no way should anyone be thinking it's safer or more effective than the mRNA vaccines given how many people have had them and the vast amount of data we have on that now. Any argument you can make on that is just very weak because there isn't that kind of rigorous supporting data on the Ivermectin side.

To the downvoters: put up or shut up. Your opinion doesn't change the facts.
This is a good article, mainly for highlighting that if kids are falling off of the development track, we see worse outcomes, and more boys than girls are falling off of the track.

My take-aways were:
* Education needs to be more than a college assembly line
* Better role-modeling is needed for working class careers, so they can see a future besides dying industries in coal and oil
* A fragile hope people realize these changes will help all genders, not just the boys where we see the effects most strongly
Yes, there is a gig ... you work charitibly for a non-profit.
I’m also running a 2015 mbp as my personal computer. Curious, which macOS version are you running?
How would you describe stripping ads from websites and then displaying different ones? Personally, I'd call that replacing website ads with your own.

I'm fully aware that you don't show them within the content (but in notification) and that it's an opt-in thing, but that doesn't make the statement inaccurate. You absolutely are removing them and showing others. In other words, you're replacing them.
The important difference between these drugs is that opiates are incredibly addictive, while ketamine is less addictive than tobacco or alcohol. Ivermectin isn't addictive at all.

Ironically, the opioid crisis is caused far more by people's trust in mainstream medicine than by any internet fad.
Exchanging more time for money when you’re already making over 500k at 40 hours a week seems inefficient.

I would be learning how to invest (in fact, I do with far less than 500k salary) in my spare time if I really need to maximize income.

Maybe your living expenses match (or exceed) your income though, so you don’t have much capital after expenses.
Incidentally, I’ve had more SSDs fail - or misbehave - on me than spinning-rust drives now. And I don’t just mean cheap SSDs either, but an Intel Optane 905p I own results in hundreds of PCI Express bus errors every minute when plugged-in to any ASUS motherboard I own, while a SATA Intel 530 woke-up one day completely unreadable. And throw-in a couple of Samsung SSD failures too.

It’s enough to make me anxious between backups: at least with spinning rust-drives we can transplant the platters and controllers (separately, even!) while SSD hardware recovery is almost unheard of.
Much easier to go poof as well.
Plus all of our apple wireless keyboards and touchpads use lightning as well.

Oh, yeah, forgot about that one. Imagine my disappointment when my new-at-the-time 2019 iMac shows up with its new-to-me shiny USB-C ports, and I...have to use a USB-C -> Lightning cable to charge the HIDs? I mean, I get it, but I was really hoping that items that merely need charging (no data) could move to USB-C along with the ports on my new machine.
The first third is very intense, I also was a bit fatigued for that middle third. When I have reread Seveneves I have skipped it. I really like the last third, but it does feel like a completely different book.
Help me out here. I know nothing about cryptocurrency, but as something in limited supply that is exchanged for money it seems that on average people could earn money as long as the price keeps rising.

Say there are four people in the crypto market. Joe buys crypto for $50, sells it to Steve for $75, who sells it to Sarah for $100, who sells it to Dale for $125, who holds it. Three people have earned $25 each (minus fees) while one is either even or has lost $125, depending on how you look at it (maybe he's happy holding his crypto permanently). This looks like on average people have earned money.

I'm not saying that this reflects how real cryptocurrency markets work, but it seems at least nominally possible that most people have earned money.
Pretty much...

Yeah, I was surprised that there were some apps on there with $25k revenue and $20k profit. Nice margins. I wish I could make $1k per year.
We have to be able to rely on some cloud services, though, if we want georedundant backup of local files. I agree that relying on Google drive without additional backups is a bad idea, and it's generally a bad idea to store unencrypted files on cloud servers (or rely on their encryption), but the problem is more general.

It should be prohibited by law for cloud service providers to snoop around in other people's data without a warrant, no matter whether that snooping is automated or done by humans.
This is why I've stopped buying books on kindle. It gives Amazon the power to censor your book library, and it would not surprise me at all if we see them exercise that power soon.
Google is well aware this is a problem and actively obfuscates ways to get connected to support (unless you pay them extra, of course) so I have a real hard time accepting this as an "honest" mistake.
Sounds like a plan, it’s actually cheaper in a sense. Today I saw my webhost had nextcloud one-click installs, that might be useful for those files you want accessible everywhere. I already pay for the space, so it doesn’t cost me extra.
Yeah, I'm using shreddit which edits the comment and then deletes it.

The whole point of the OP's questions is that they didn't want to assume anything! I don't see the harm in asking these types of questions, even if the most likely answer to each of them is "no".

Google workspaces requires you to attach a non-workspaces-related account. Unless they both go down, you can still contact them. Worst case, I believe Workspaces requires a phone number now -- at least Google can't wipe that!
Elixir (the language phoenix is written in, which is the framework that has these live views) is great with concurrency. You can have incredible quantities of parallel sockets open with basically no overhead. There have been various write-ups about it if you're interested.
Just keep in mind some mobile carries block DoT so it's not always an option (Android does not natively support DoH).
>t sounds like you have a pretty misguided idea of how pharmacies and pharmacists worked before Covid. You’re describing a situation where pharmacists act at the behest of doctors who know best, when in reality pharmacists have always had some level of independent authority over what drugs get dispensed to whom thanks to their expertise. It’s part of the pharmacists job to watch out for bad prescriptions, both in terms of abuse (e.g. opioids) improper dosages, and unintended side effects and interactions between drugs. In some states pharmacists have their own ability to prescribe medicine on their own.

Absolutely. I had to fire my doctor after he prescribed a sulfa drug to me, even though I'd made it clear that I have an allergy to sulfa drugs.

In fact, I would never have known (well, until I became sick/dead) that the drug prescribed was a sulfa drug if the pharmacist hadn't known the drug involved and checked it against known allergies. He contacted both me and my doctor and a different drug was prescribed.

In fact, it's entirely possible that I'm alive today thanks to the expertise and knowledge of the pharmacist.

It's best to understand that the vast majority of literature is just faulty. Either it's technically wrong (experimental mistakes), or missing information (left out a step in the methods), or the conclusions are not supported the (valid) experiment.

Learning how to filter literature is non-trivial and I don't think very many people do it successfully. I've found the best thing is to take a group of aggressive smart grad students and have them tear every paper apart until I'm convinced there are no basic technical errors, and the conclusion is supported by the evidence. Then and only then, would I care that the methods were incomplete because I'd be ready to run a replication experiment, and many of my replications failed because the methods section was not sufficient (missing steps, misleading instructions, challenging step).
Google Drive is free. The individual in-question was not paying for the service.

Not sure how you get reinventing the wheel from my comment.

What I described would move us in the direction of the countries you're talking about.

I have lived in the UK, and seen doctors through the NHS. I have bought cough medicine at the chemist, and no it was not state-funded. I have visited patients at NHS hospitals where you are one patient sharing a room with 20 others in the same ward. I have talked to people on the waitlist for months to get surgery.

I still think the UK system is better than ours in the US for urgent care. I don't want anyone to be financially ruined because of some unforeseeable accident or emergency.

But I maintain that "health care" is way too big a category to be absolutist about using or not using free market principles in it. There are parts of health care where markets do not make sense. There are other parts where they do.
