I'm so happy this guy is no longer in charge of designing Apple devices. They were among the most beautiful computing devices ever made.... at the cost of usability, durability, repairability, reliability.

They're far from perfect even now on these aspects, but there are tangible, non-trivial improvements already (except on repairability for now, but one can dream...)

Syncthing has two methods for detecting file changes: Watching (inotify), and Scanning. Both are enabled by default, with scanning once per hour (+/- a random element). Configurable per directory.

> It makes us fragile and susceptible to any change in their terms.

Which is why you should backup your data locally (or somewhere else), but even if self hosting, you should still have a backup of your data.

I personally backup everything at home, and if/when their terms change, it's simply a matter of restoring data onto the new solution (local or remote), and i'm up and running again.
Sadly that is not strange - if there are any technologically literate people advising our government on policy they're not being listened to.
I have a PHP/Symfony project boilerplate that I use for all of my projects and I added static site generating to that boilerplate. That allows me to make a static site and then easily switch from static to dynamic if I need to. The only thing I need to change to make the switch is my CI configuration. It has already come in handy on a couple of projects and it doesn't require any special maintenance since I'm just storing the output of my dynamic app.
That is strange, I have maybe written 10 applications in my whole life (embedded development, µC in C mainly).

I did a "sabbatical" for a year shorty after my first job and then switched to another company. So I guess I was unemployed for more than 6 month technically.

I guess it depends on locality a lot, I mostly wrote applications on my own initiative and didn't use channels like LinkedIn aside from researching contacts.

I wouldn't focus on what stacks you use, just tell them which problems you solve with it. Larger companies have non-tech people in HR and they might think you to be a freak or snake charmer if you mention Python.

Consider taking the initiative on applications and maybe target companies that don't primarily develop software (those offer far better condition in my experience. Maybe not money-wise, but overall).

Some companies are vulnerable to buzz words. If you know Python you could venture into ML. Has high value now, but I think companies might not be too healthy if they focus too much on buzz.
As for the laptops built-in screen 1920×1080 resolution is the only I want, also reasonable colors and preferably anti-glare screen. For external displays it must support 4K unless very cheap.
At the start of node.js, I frequently saw full web applications written in it "traditionally", fetching data and writing it into pug/haml/jade/handlebars/whatever else templates (during the callback-pyramid-hell days). It was pretty much just another stack like a less opinionated django. People used express, returned HTML, etc.

Then the SPA frameworks came into the fray, and I never really saw node.js being used server side like that much anymore.
Or maybe ads could go back to where they were: on some yellow background and on the side. Not looking like the first search results.

If the place was busy and you were occupying a table without ordering anything, maybe. But if the place was otherwise fairly empty, they probably don't mind very much. It can even be a benefit to have a few tables occupied so that the place doesn't look completely dead.
I'm surprised nobody mentioned Hugo[0] yet.

I write Markdown and commit to a git repo, then a web hook in Caddy pulls and builds the static site, anything I commit is up in a matter of seconds.

Syncthing is really amazing, I have been using it for nearly two years to sync notes on all of my device; three laptops, one iPad, raspberry pi and a pixel 2. The most difficult thing was finding a solution to work on the iPad, ended up having to use an app to remotely access and edit files on my raspberry pi, it's kinda clunky but gets the job done.
Fired Google Insider Speaks Out

perhaps it is all about context censorship.
Nice catch, this usecase seems common enough.
Love this part: "To allow myself this pace, I discover a tension between freedom and impatience, that is, in the slow, I find a fresh inventiveness and sovereignty from the relentless influence of our economic system. Though within this, I must temper and unlearn my own fixed haste at generating creative work at a rapid measure. I hear an internal voice telling me, write faster, go faster, you’re not doing it right, and it takes might and fortitude to reject this voice obsessed with speed. If I can suggest a slower methodology, then the practice is that of contemplation, deliberate reflection, slow thought, which results in intricate language, in a new kind of assembly as evidenced by the messiness of my hard drive, notebooks, diaries, and iPhone notes apps, of which there are many. I prefer the reprieve of the slow. I like writing more when performed at an adagio. It’s a relief. A sanctuary."
> British invaded and continue to hang on to

The only places I can think of that Britain currently "hangs on to" against the will of the inhabitants are arguably Scotland and Northern Ireland, but in both those places about half the population want to continue to belong to the UK.

So it's not obvious to me who you're referring to here.

> Of the 51,281 deaths involving Covid registered in England between 2 January and 2 July 2021:

> - 640 (1.2%) were people who had received both vaccine doses

> This total includes people who had been infected before they were vaccinated

> - Some 458 deaths (0.8%) were people who died at least 21 days after their second dose

> Just 256 deaths (0.5%) were people who were both fully vaccinated and who had their first positive PCR test at least 14 days after their second dose

> Some deaths after vaccination were always expected because vaccines are not 100% effective, and it takes a couple of weeks after your second dose to build the fullest protection.

> The figures show the high degree of protection from the vaccines against illness and death, the ONS said.

The institutions we set up to arbitrate truth - the courts - are already swamped beyond belief in many countries.

The problem is that our societal systems of governance have been designed hundreds of years past, when life was focused on a couple dozen kilometers around where one lived. Nowadays, with global instant communication and knowledge available to almost everyone, conflicts and disagreements achieve far, far more reach and impact - and our societal foundations have never been updated to reflect the new reality and its demands.

The US still votes on Tuesdays because of farmers commitments to church and market days in the 19th century (https://www.history.com/news/why-is-election-day-a-tuesday-i...), copyright as a concept dates back to the 1700s, and legal language is so full of Latin and other outdated language it is impossible to understand for normal citizens.

We are witnessing a break-up of society, especially between the old/Boomer generation and the young "digital natives". For us young people, we see the possibilities and dangers of technology - and we see that our societal infrastructure is horribly outdated and the old generation which is in power dragging their feet and doing everything they can to prevent progress.

This is a hobby I took up as well a few years ago, couple with a few Udemy courses, etc. It's good fun, and, as somewhat of a legendary "anti-talent" at drawing (mostly according to my family), I found that it's surprisingly easy to pick up. As in, given the right coaching, you can produce something that motivates you to keep improving, literally on day one. I had just never really tried before, or not in the right ways.

As evidenced by the comments in this post, developers love developing new static site generators.

Unfortunately, we typically lack the same enthusiasm for actually writing content for said static sites.

So you end up with 1,000,000 developer blogs with an average of 1 post.

The title of which is “how I built this blog using X”

After having gone through this charade many times myself (I’m a high level procrastinator), if your goal is to publish on the internet, do not spend time creating a custom static site generator.

In fact, don’t use a static site generator at all (you inevitably won’t remember how it works and will have broken dependencies years later when it comes time to pen post number 2).

Just sign up for a basic site builder (Webflow if it’s a company site, squarespace if it’s a personal blog), pick a not-offensive template, and be done with it.

Trust me, nobody will think less of you.

By eliminating the decision points around building something, you can force yourself to not waste hours comparing CSS frameworks and instead actually write something of value for other people.

Ah. Good point. Still a name worth mentioning though; we need to each of the few companies in this space.
A bloody awesome concept. I enjoyed it so much. And a great (instantly profitable if you do everything right) small business idea by the way.
I also dislike array-to-pointer decay, but I'm not sure why do you say that it is one of the two major problems.

Could you expand on "Array decay means that pointers need the ability to point to different array elements, thus requiring pointer arithmatic"? I don't see what you mean.

A point that comes to mind is that if array-to-pointer decay were really such a bad thing, the "struct of array" and "pointer to array" types would be used much more than they are (they are almost never used).
From a French perspective, I don't really see what it brings besides novelty. Sitting all day long at a café is hardly problematic. Plus at noon you can just switch from coffee to beer or wine and order proper food without moving places ;)

Though these half café, half co-working places might be more comfortable if they cater specifically to the laptop crowd.
I was thinking that maybe that lack of precision was a good thing. Makes your tests less fragile.

I agree though that you probably want to augment this with some form of assertion about noise level to check the high frequency smaller components.

that is a loaded question because the way people use their computers varies too much. for example, i have abandoned desktop because of the noise and size. so notebook/laptop/.. sits on my desk, closed, hooked up to external monitor, keyboard and mouse. so it is like a compact desktop with a backup screen and keyboard. so for this use, i need dedicated graphics card(just for games), rj45 to hook up internet or lan, microphone and headphones jack, bt if i want to use wireless headphones, wifi if i don't have cable available. all NBs have replaceable hdd and ram so those will be immediately upgraded(ie. they should be ignored when buying). hence the graphics card, cpu and available ports is what matters the most because they are fixed. i have been taking my NB to work for 5+ years, every day, so the durability of connectors is important. you won't know until you keep using them(ie. plugging the hdmi cable twice a day, usb keyboard and mouse too). if you move the computer often, the charger is the biggest issue since it is large and heavy. having a small one should be priority, otherwise it does not matter(or buy a second one). overall weight and dimensions should be considered as well if travel will take place often(i would recommend dedicated travel NB in that case). also it is good to have two hdds, just in case. i have swapped my dvd-rom for hdd with a special tray. lastly, drivers. after so many years, i recommend you back up all drivers somewhere because if you reinstall the OS you might not find some important driver anymore or you will have some issues(in my case, the fan was not working properly so i had to find a special utility that i need to run after each start). some brands are better at long-term support than others, but again, you just won't know until you need it. i don't think brand matters. not today. i bought MSI, plastic case, but with good specs. most people would not even look at that brand when it comes to NBs but it has served me 8 years without missing a beat. lastly, in my case, i cannot hook up 4k monitor because of outdated graphics card. that should not be a problem but tech is something one might look at to future-proof the computer's long-term usability. also the limits of replaceable hw should be considered. you might be ok with 16gb ram or 32gb ram but one day you might NEED 64gb or more and you might not be able to hook it up. same goes for hdd and the supported speeds or interface. again, future-proofing is something to consider if you are not the type of person that buys new hw every other year.

To me work seems a very wrong place for this. Mixing personal and work worlds sounds like a terrible idea. And I hate when people I meet ask me anything about my job (although the job is nothing special). As for the university though - quite the opposite, I actually consider the friends you make there the number-one value to attend it for, all the actual education can be gotten from free (incl. some pirate like LibGen and SciHub) sources on the Internet, often more efficiently.

As the entirety of your comment as a quote, I don’t know if you’re giving an example of David Davis saying something misleading, or if you’re trying to signal boost his claims.

But that quote is misleading: https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2021/09/fact-check-claim-...

(Think of it this way: if 100% of people are vaccinated, then 100% of deaths will be vaccinated people. This is true for literally every possible vaccine and disease and cause of death, not just COVID. It’s also true for “people who drink water”. It only pattern matches the conveyance of useful information, but by itself it is half a statement and says nothing).
So I'm trying to navigate the personal cognitive dissonance I'm facing after reading your comment.

Would you agree that "All Lives Matter" is racist because it's derisive of "Black Lives Matter" the proper noun? The sentiment that all lives are important is not racist, and it's also not mutually exclusive from BLM's message. If anything, they align right?

BLM is saying Black lives matter just as much as any other life. Black people should not be treated as second class citizens. They're not claiming Black lives matter _more_ than others.. that _would_ be racist.

A true merit based evaluation would be.. just that - based on merit and not racial background, sexuality, age, political affiliation, the clothes you wear, the food you eat, or even the schooling you've received. To give any group preferential treatment would be not based on merit.
In fact, stability is one of the reasons why I use my own static site generator - nothing changes unless I want it to.

I love the concept, but personally having to sign in to track time seems less "streamlined" to me than just buying a drink, so I didn't have a reason to go back, but maybe if the first hour was free in exchange for installing an app, it would be worth it. (I also don't hang out in cafes or coworking spaces much these days).
We have a tendency to attribute "good design" to the conspicuous—the latest apple gadget, the unicorn startup with alegria art and custom fonts, etc. But this isn't good product design, it's marketing. It's an attempt to create an image that users want to identify with, feel afraid of being excluded from, etc.

Good product design isn't conspicuous. It goes unnoticed. Amazon.com is a well-designed product. I've hardly ever thought about "Amazon" in the context of using it. I've only ever thought about the thing I'm trying to buy.
So developers like developing stuff. Yeah that probably about sums it up.

I don't think that's an obstacle to writing. Let's be honest, the average blog lifetime is probably lasts less than a dozen posts. The ones that last are weird outliers, and that's not a problem from choosing the wrong technology.

Yea but it doesn't matter. The clean from gradle deletes the folder entirely and creates a new one in it's place. I don't care. Just sync the path. That's all I need. Instead Syncthing literally stop syncing ALL folders because "oh no something went wrong".

For whatever reason open source software always has these weird edge case engineering "solutions" that really aren't that great. If someone was actually a paying customer and asked for this the engineers would just figure something out instead of making excuses for why it is the way it is.

I am a big fan of showing two languages at the start. Statically typed Java/something so that the idea of data types is ingrained. Then rapidly switching to Python after the first lesson.

A real problem I've seen (and had) with absolute beginners doing Python, is they really struggle with the types of abstract variables for the first little while when they're "getting stuff done."

"Knowing" to use type() to debug your programs isn't something that comes intuitively to a novice who's been programming for all of 25 minutes, They have absolutely no idea that builtin is there or they need to use it.

A quick Hello World in something with static types, and a "tour of data types" can go a long way. Also helps sell them on Python.

I wonder if Typescript is suitably fun for this. Because I'm convinced that a significant part of the attraction of Python to beginners is pure aesthetics.

> Not quite, you're confusing a particular way a singleton is implemented with the whole purpose of a singleton and why there's a need to restrict a class to have a single instance to begin with.

Have you actually read the definition(s) of the singleton pattern? E.g. Wikipedia: "In software engineering, the singleton pattern is a software design pattern that restricts the instantiation of a class to one "single" instance." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singleton_pattern)

And it's the same in most other definitions.

Also, make sure to read the criticism on the Wikipedia page - I think the criticism there is enough to classify it as an antipattern, because again, it's not about just having one instance of a type/class.
