It's was my take in 2015, when saying it then got you bashed to death.

Now you can say it, since people have been burnt enough to admit it, but ironically it's actually less true.

Yes, the JS language is always hackish. The stdlib sucks and the ecosystem is a Jenga tower. A lot of JS projects are still what I call "disposable code bases".

But.

Modern JS is tolerable. Functions are now decent, you have let/const, map/filter... There are even some nice things:

• spread and destructuring, and they play well with the limited data structures.

• simplest async paradigm ever: immediate schedule, and returns a Future, may attach a callback or prefix with await.

• concise arrow functions.

• ? and ?? operators. I actually miss them in Python.

Tooling has improved tenfold:

• VSCode gives you good code intelligence out of the box.

• any build tool will solve imports, scoping, "this" weirdness, browser compat, etc.

• new gen builders, such as ViteJS (or anything based on rollup/esbuild), are fast, reliable, and have sane default. No more webpack trouble.

• new gen packagers, such as pnpm, are fast, reliable, and save a ton of disk space. No more "takes 10 minutes, download the entire internet 3 times".

• with VueJS (SPA), htmx (ajaxify Django, Rails, Laravel...) and petite-vue (progressive enhancement), front end dev is almost fun. And light.

• Typescript.

Now, I still avoid JS if I can. I don't like having to google simple things like type coercion or how to left trim a string.

As soon as I can go Python, I do so. It's hard to beat Django or FastApi for the web, Typer for scripting, pandas for data analysis, pytest and robotframework for testing, or just the stdlib/pypi.org for pretty much everything. And with shiv and nuitka, deployment is now on a different level.

But when I have to use JS, I don't dread it anymore.
Does anyone know any existing open source that aims for the reverse of this? i.e. works as a midi data receiver (app or plugin) and maps to hardware/physical outputs?

I've built my own for a midi-cv controller for modular synth, and it was way more work than I anticipated. I'm curious if other complete and flexible solutions exist?

I ran a business 10 years ago that was receiving tons of user queries (think like a search engine) and in order to rank first on Google we were just counting the X thousands most popular queries, generating landing pages with little content for all of them and then submitting them as multiple sitemaps.

Maybe so, but you'd still expect anything capable of removing a good bit of the blue light to still show a significant improvement in sleep quality, even if the effect was not as large as with "complete" blue light removal.

I suspect that the darkening effect of changing a screen's color temperature along with the placebo effect can explain a good bit of this. Most people are not very good at assessing something as vague as "sleep quality". Robust studies are very much needed.

Every day we read HN comments about how greedy capitalist employers are, but at the same time we're supposed to believe they'd miss to make additional profit by simply paying female employees just $50 more than another greedy capitalist and still realizing extra profit when compared to employing men (or transgender?) workers.

To save anyone reading what is a very poorly argued article, their solution is to take Facebook under public ownership or treat it like a utility company. You don't have to think very hard to understand there are problems with this:

- You're giving the government (more specifically the party in power at the time) control over a highly effective form of propaganda, which won't have a good outcome.

- The US government would only regulate FB as it relates to US citizens, leaving FB free to operate as now in the rest of the world.

- In Japan where a similar addictive product aimed at minors (tobacco) is mostly under public ownership, the Japanese government has dragged its feet at regulation to reduce harm from cigarettes - eg it only banned smoking in bars last year. In the Japanese case they don't want to imperil the profits from JTI (Japan Tobacco).
Money for Nothin'
You know how silly this all sounds right? The idea that you need to add 0s in front of comments that already have post dates for context, yet nanotech will make quantum leaps. Those two circles don't square. If the nanotech proposition comes to fruition, you won't need 0s in front of dates for old texts to be properly contextualized.. You'll have NLP tech so advanced that adding 0s will look like you were rubbing sticks together.

On the broader subject of the 0s, it's ironic that they are added for reasons of long-term optimism. Because if NLP hasn't advanced to understand the context of shorthand dates in old texts in 10,000 years time, I'd say thats a pretty pessimistic view on long term progress.
There's also SICP and Lisp in Small Pieces, maybe also Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach, that contain very interesting stuff with Lisp and in general.
The word "meme" as originally defined by Richard Dawkins (in The Selfish Gene) fits the role well - a self replicating belief or set of belief. He gave religion as the prime examople of an infectious meme - 'you must believe these set of things - you must also transmit the beliefs to others, or they risk eternal damnation'.
> they fired the people working on core parts of the browser (Servo)

Just to clarify, Servo was never a part of Firefox. Maybe that's not what you meant, but I've seen it confused with Gecko before which is the actual browser engine used by Firefox.

And as much as I am puzzled by some of the design choices lately - for the android version of Firefox especially - I think that it would be a loss in more ways than one to lose the last (?) real alternative to the Chromium-based family of browsers.

I do this too. If there was a simple enhancement I'd like to see to HN, extending how far back you can go on /new, /ask and /show would be it.

/show is currently capping out at only 41 entries, and /ask is 61. Looking at them both it seems the cut off is -48 hours. Extending this to 72 hours would be trivial and prevent older posts ageing off too quick - not everyone looks at those pages every day.

Sorry, I don't get what you mean? Yes, you were off by one in the model name, writing "MX-2" in stead of "MX-3", but both I and a sibling comment corrected for that, disussing the actually existing MX-3 in stead of the non-existent "MX-2". So what's the "noise" here, in your opinion? It was your actual point that was disproved.

Yes, there is no such thing as a "Mazda MX-2", and never was. I went directly to Wikipedia last time, but that has pretty much every other car model that ever existed, so I saw no reason to believe a "Mazda MX-2" ever existed. And now that I've googled for your exact term, here are most of the top hits:

Speculation from 2009 about a coming new model (possibly for 2013) -- which was sparsely reported even at the time, and apparently never materialised (since no actual specifications, prices, tests, or reviews show up in at least the first five pages of Google results):

https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/mazda/32905/mazda-mx-2-reveale...

https://www.motorauthority.com/news/1033621_mazda-working-on...

https://www.drive.com.au/news/2013-mazda-mx-2-rendered-specu...

https://www.autoevolution.com/news/cgi-2013-mazda-mx-2-8195....

https://www.burlappcar.com/2009/06/mazda-mx2-coming-up.html

https://www.tv2.no/a/12383893/ (in Norwegian)

A few auto trading sites that purport to have pages related to it (my guess: from mistyped searches), but which turn out to contain other models (mostly MX-5's, with the odd Mazda 2 sprinkled in):

https://www.gumtree.com/cars/uk/mazda/mazda+mx+2

https://www.newsnow.co.uk/classifieds/cars-vans-for-sale/maz...

https://cars.trovit.co.uk/used-cars/mazda-mx-2

https://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/s-autos/mazda-mx-2/k0c216 (in German)

And that's it. So, to sum up:

1) There is no "Mazda MX-2", there never was.

2) The only "noise" here was your typo; if you were talking about actually existing cars, you must obviously have meant the MX-3. You were after all talking about model names clashing with the M 3.

3) This was corrected for in the discussion; what was discussed was your actual point, not the "noise" (your typo).

4) If for some incomprehensible reason you actually meant the non-existent "Mazda MX-2", our point against it stands even firmer than with the MX-3: The BMW M3 would have predated the "MX-2", had it materialised in 2013, by 27 years in stead of merely five. If anyone had been able to sue anyone, it would still have been BMW, not Mazda.

So no, your point doesn't stand.

And I'm utterly baffled: Where are you -- still! -- claiming to have "looked up MX-2" from???
Just to add more personal anecdotes to the thread, and not to dismiss what you said... How you feel is how you feel and I wish you the best.

I'm pretty happy with the cheese situation in Europe. I'm from Hungary, and thanks to the EU, I can get the best cheese from Italy, Spain, Switzerland and France even in relatively small towns. It was not like that 20 years ago. I live now in Munich, Germany, and there I have access to even more kinds of cheese. Both countries have tons of "artisan" cheese factories.

Regarding GA, I also disagree, though I only have experience from Hungary. There, most towns have small airports for GA, my dad often brought me there and let one of his friends take me for a short flight. Once, I wanted to learn to fly a hang glider, it was arranged in half a day, and they welcomed me, and I flew a couple of times. Note, my dad was not a pilot, or anything, just had to serve two years in the military, so he knew people that were interested in GA.
If you think content about your local patch of land on this ball of mud is more interesting to hackers than ideas then you're doing it wrong. I live in California, but one thing I love about night owl Hacker News is that stories about low-level assembly hacks are more likely to reach the front page, because the Russians and Eastern Europeans are online, and they have an appreciation for assembly like it's poetry, and that's simply an attitude that's hard to find around here in California where your colleagues will look at you like you're green if you're not using the latest new-fangled online framework tool created by the startup next door.
They do not. You can check their build files yourself here: https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/tree/packages...

Indeed, it would be rather surprising if they did, as I'm an Arch user as well and they have not disabled the sponsored new tab suggestions or the Pocket article recommendations. Hard to say what would be beyond the pale for the Arch maintainers.

From what I can tell from this thread, they are currently selectively enabling this for certain users. Maybe it just hasn't been enabled for you yet, or you're in a region (non-US) that doesn't get it enabled?

Well having a monopoly on the most popular and power programming platform of the planet, the web browser, will do that.

In fact, remove the browser monopoly, and give it to Visual Basic, and in 3 years, VB will be the most popular language of the world.

This is also what keeps me coming back: the frequent appearances of an insider to the events that are mentioned in an article or post.

Strangely, by the end of page 23, I started to feel some relevance to software engineering as well. For example, I'm not satisfied to know that a feature is needed; I want to know why the feature is needed and how it is hoped to be used.

You probably already know this, but for anyone wanting to do this: esbuild does not do any type checking, so TypeScript with pure esbuild (without a separate tsc step) is only half useful (it gives you better autocompletion, but not much else).

> We have already noted that quantum physics offers a world view in which the future is not entirely determined. This indeterminacy is not practical but fundamental. It permits us to think that our experience of free will may be real instead of merely subjective. If the outcome of a quantum process is undetermined, there is no fundamental reason to deny that possibility in some neural events which may be a macroscopic amplification of microscopic processes where quantum indeterminacy plays an essential role.

I don't see how free will follows from indeterminacy. Just because you can't predict future outcomes from initial values doesn't mean that there is "choice" involved in the evolution of a system.

The title misses the point.

You can have a perfectly stable JS experience if you let go of the need to stay on top of the latest trends. I've done node.js since it came out and I stopped feeling like the author about 5 years ago. I've continued developed in js regularly but am generally "out of the loop" with regards to web framework trends etc. Apart from deprecations of request and moment and the occasional syntactic sugar, not much has changed in years now.

Just the other day I made a greenfield web project for the first time in a long time, took me about one intermittent day to get from 0 to "good enough" with a couple of views. typescript, hapi, and pug. It doesn't have to be complicated.

https://codeberg.org/3np/rimgu

(Not saying this is a perfect project and you may argue it falls under the "do x in 10 mins fallacy" but if you think JS projects have to be complicated and unstable - they don't have to)

Also, I find it unexpected hearing that comparison with Ruby. I've spent way too much time struggling with Ruby deprecations, buid systems, linters, and broken or undocumented web frameworks (Grape) that I think Python may be the one better comparison.

And really, which ecosystem with comparable legacy has a significantly better track-record of webdev stability? Java? .NET? PHP? Go? It's a mess everywhere.
The whole idea is bonkers and self-contradictory. If NLP hasn't advanced to understand the context of shorthand dates in old texts in 10,000 years time, I'd say thats a pretty pessimistic view on long term progress. Yet the idea is to add 0s because of a long term view on human progress? Doesn't make sense to me.
In JS terms, that's like a dinosaur.

That's ignoring a lot of behind-the-scenes pressure tactics. In fact, your analysis would cast every one-sided deal or law that is the result of foreign pressure (or corruption, or lobbying) as "democratic", unless it's the result of full-on war.
Nothing in that PR showed he was a much better developer, he just implemented an optimization he found in a book. Contrary to the medium post, Satoshi's code was fairly clean for a first release. The omission of unit tests just shows the uncertainty Satoshi had about the project (why make tests for something that hasn't found adoption?).
I cannot comment on the long term effect of blue light, but at the very least i experience very significant discomfort when turning off any piece of software that makes the screen a more warm color (for example, f.lux on Windows https://justgetflux.com/ and something like Redshift https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Redshift on *nix), to the point where it makes me avert my gaze.

Due to me working primarily as a developer, i don't always need good color accuracy, so my current settings of screen color warmth are the following:

Day: 4300K
Sunset: 3000K
Night: 2550K

In addition to that, i have a few smart lightbulbs that change to a more red color as the night approaches and gently dim more and more when i don't need to do any reading and just have to walk around the house. Subjectively, i'd say that it's better for me being able to fall asleep and experience a bit less eye strain (though admittedly, using a computer late into the night is never a good idea).

Perhaps the discomfort is just because of eyes having a hard time adjusting to noticeably different lighting conditions, but maybe there's more to it.
Has anyone used this? How does using nodes compare to using text syntax?

One of the big problems I've found with openSCAD is that beyond a certain level of complexity it gets very hard to keep a good mental model of the constituent parts of your 3D model in your head, and so changes become hard. This is generally after things get rotated a few times. Does this make that easier?

React became decent last year when next started being mature enough.

What I don't like is all the transpiling and new language features getting to js. The single worst decision was to swap require for import. I don't care how much better the new model is, it broke too much stuff and I feel pain at least once a week because of that crap.

Frankly, that's a nightmare and I think it will be years before it's decent to use - or maybe we'll need deno to get there.

I swapped js with rust (+rocket) for all my personal projects and it's been nice - but I'm still stuck with js on a few projects where I'm collaborating with other developers who are not going to realistically learn rust.
