Windows 10 is only good compared to Windows 8. The terrible product decisions are all still there, if slightly more hidden.
The greatest security threat is that browser vendors become increasingly untrustworthy, so a signed app doesn't really say it doesn't exploit you to the maximum of its ability.

Making generalized statements and lists like this is only possible if you selectively ignore versions.

From the Windows 3.11 to Windows ME/2000 era there where the DOS and NT kernel editions, both available at the same time.

I believe the missing Windows 98 SE was generally considered good, and the version many people kept using while XP was popular.

XP was not considered good at first, but had substantial improvements in SP2 and SP3.

Windows 8.1 didn't leave much of an impression, but was pretty workable.

Printing free money has consequences. This is entirely expected with that causation. It will get worse. Hold value in assets, not money. Property, precious metals, art, whatever isn’t cash until the money printing stops.
I'm a Front End Dev and work with SPAs for the past 2 years. Working an offline-enabled PWA powered by Svelte and Redux. Honestly, I have a hunch that an HTML-based oriented development can still provide a great (measured) offline experience, without needing to rebuild wholesale to SPA.

It's a totally different ballgame if the app is mostly client-side utility anyway (calculators, etc), but the HTML + a bit of JS handling Service Worker and offline presentation should enable a great offline experience. I haven't seen it done in a large scale, but it should work.

Something like this always happens when some new regulation happens. Thinking of legislators as idiots and fear mongering.

The second thing won't happen because "anonymous websites", in this context, doesn't mean anonymous from general public but anonymous from governments.

Anonymous bank accounts are also banned so do you also argue that law-abiding citizens who might be whistleblowers, victims of stalking, or have other very genuine reasons for wanting to hide their personal information will be unable to register a bank account without putting themselves in danger?
Automobiles are also on an annual cycle. Do you think most people buy/lease a new car every year--especially given that something like 11 years is the average length of time people hold onto their cars these days?

Even with trade-in incentives, the vast majority of people don't get a new phone every year.

> Interesting that these topics always focus on smartphones or the Internet... These are well-thought business decisions, made by well-known people. And yet, as a society, we shrink away from talking about them, preferring instead to put blame on incidental topics: the Internet, the smartphones, the engineers building the hardware and software[0].

I mean, this article says as much:

> While there is nothing inherently addictive about smartphones themselves, the true drivers of our attachments to these devices are the hyper-social environments they provide. Thanks to the likes of Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, and others, smartphones allow us to carry immense social environments in our pockets through every waking moment of our lives.

The article even opens with a former executive at Facebook talking about how how guilty they feel for making addictive feedback loops that are damaging to society.
The solution here is to augment our tools with the information a screen reader needs.

To follow your example, we don't build separate bank branches for wheelchair users, we just extend existing branches with ramps, elevators and anything else they might need.

We already do this with other kinds of user interfaces. For example, web pages can be annotated with ARIA attributes, which don't influence how a page looks, but tell the screen reader that something is a checkbox which is currently unchecked. This is only required if you don't use the native HTML checkbox control, of course. Other platforms have their own ways of doing this, see iAccessible and UIA on Windows, ATSPI on Linux and AXElement on the Mac, for example.

Terminals were never meant for use cases like this, look at how hacky tty control codes are. If not for the fact that they're basically a bunch of ugly cludges that somehow work, there would probably be an aPI for that too. For now, though, we have to live with what we have.
That once happened to me when I bought a fancy glass sconce for the exterior of my house. It arrived smashed, and the representative from Amazon politely asked me if I could safely discard it. He mentioned that he didn't want anyone else to get cut when opening the package.

I happily closed the box up and put it in my trashcan, then ordered another.
Yes, self-attention mechanisms are dense associative memories, so it might be possible to replace them in many cases with simpler storage mechanisms. Still, I would count the required storage space as part of a model's parameter size -- e.g., a model consisting of 1 trillion values in RAM and 99 trillion values in storage consists of... 100 trillion values.
I think you misread my comment, I wasnt saying nuclear was unsafe or unreliable or expensive.

I was saying people who wanted to distract from the high cost of nuclear would divert attention and say that solar/wind kills more people than nuclear per TWh (based on old, out of date stats) and that they were "unreliable" compared with nuclear.

As you note, renewables and nuclear are in the same bracket for safety, with renewables slowly moving ahead.

I was, perhaps naively, hoping this reflected greater knowledge of renewables continued roll out around the world, which would make such claims look silly.

Also, nuclear is expensive compared with renewables, but it's only more expensive than coal if you don't take carbon and pollution into account, which we definitely should.

I'll assume you just don't understand. He's clearly talking about stuff like Facebook and Youtube designing their systems to suck you in, not to mention all the games designed to hit your dopamine reward center.
What's ironic too is that these "daily" rewards offer so much leeway to the end user to get away with not actually hitting daily. In example, Timehop, has recorded days without me actually visiting the app - rather keeping the streak on the app seems to be more for my dopamine gain even if its number is invalid. Egg, Inc, a game I play on my phone has daily rewards. On its system, I have 24 hours until after my daily reward is given (or so I presume, I haven't missed one in months :/) that it gives me in difference to make sure I come into the app. It's annoying but the patterns are so apparent that it surprises me how many people don't notice them.

Once gasses have been released, the chemical structure of telfon has changed. Literally, this is how it becomes toxic.

It takes very little time, just one little mistake, and that pan is now no longer inert teflon, but instead toxic teflon. Some have suggested that teflon should literally be banned, as a result of this.

Some even regularly cook at temperatures which are dangerous for teflon, eg > 600F, when searing a steak for example.

But I guess my whole point is, we 100% know it can become toxic. We also know that mistakes during cooking, or people not being aware, can cause this transformation. And it's a thing we put our food in, for crying out loud!

I don't think one can overstate how ... wrong it is, to use any non-stick coated pans. It's just not worth it.

What "entrepreneurial risk" are they taking there? Sending the initial batch of products over and creating a product listing? Are they involved with the design/creation of the product itself? If they're just taking already designed/made products and reselling on amazon, and amazon's cutting them out, I can't say I feel sorry for them losing their middle-man position.

> This is somewhat controversial from what I understand, not all of the Dutch like it, and I understand why: it's not really very fair to give foreigners a tax break and not your own people.

Another way to look at it would be that these expats contribute to our economy and society without having cost us money in preparation (schooling etc.) So I think it's a win-win.
> defending the idea that we would be better off by leaning heavier into bureaucracy

I think you're projecting a lot, trying to put words in my mouth and being unnecessarily aggressive.

I've been very careful not to make any judgement of superiority of this or that system throughout this thread. I pointed out several times that the Japanese experience is very unique, and in many ways probably and fundamentally unaccessible to us in the West. "We" cannot be "better off" doing this or that because "we" are not Japan; they seem to have found a formula that works for them, and it's interesting to note how the various elements interconnect in such formula. One of those elements is the somewhat-ritualized bureaucracy, and my point is that it seems to contribute significantly to the success of that model in those circumstances. Obviously I'm not advocating mindlessly trying to replicate that elsewhere, nor am I stating that bureacracy is a necessary condition for social peace - this is just a strawman you are erecting for your own personal reasons.

> Great. Now try to explain Switzerland.

Did you even read my posts above? Scale is important when comparing such systems, and I was very careful to caveat my statements on this throughout, because I knew somebody would eventually bring up Denmark, Norway, or, well, Switzerland.

The Swiss Federation contains barely 9m people, with 211 p/sqm; Japan has 125m, with 333 p/sqm. Obviously we are talking about different orders of magnitude. It's not terribly difficult to get a block assembly to agree on something (still not easy!), but getting the whole city to agree on anything is a different ballgame.

For the last six months, anyone mentioning inflation on HN was furiously downvoted by midwits who parroted the "baseline", "transitory" talking points.

Does HN finally accept that inflation is actually here?
In Sweden I have seen that people just understand that others are human. If you stay at home because you have a sick kid, I support that. If I leave half an hour early because I have a doctor appointment my manager understands. My manager may take extra vacation days and that is ok. One employee does not sabotage the needs of the others, work is done anyway and everything works better when people is relaxed and can focus when needed instead of overworked.

I understand that in countries like the USA employees complain about other employees just for being sick and call them lazy, and management forces people to do extra hours to impress upper management. Or at least I get that from many comments here in HN were I have seen people been called lazy for having human needs or caring for their families.

You needed an upgrade CD ordered from Microsoft to update, so I count those.

if 98SE was a service pack it would be the largest feature increase in a service pack of any Windows service pack, iirc it brought native USB printer+storage support and firewire support to the OS.

Though I was a kid at the time (barely 10 years old), I just remember 98 and 98SE disks floating about and people not upgrading their windows 95 machines until SE came out.

Right, because they're pretty much the same category of service, addressing the same niche.

To both yours and GP's points: it is true that "what is addictive to someone is harmless for someone other". This is true for alcohol, tobacco and gambling too. Yet we know that unchecked, these three cause tremendous social problems - and so we've adjusted both regulations and culture to find a balance between freedom and protecting the vulnerable.

Windows 10 is taking 3-4 minutes to log in, I've tried disabling startup services, but that didn't work, so reinstall is on the table... would you hop to Win 11 or reinstall Win 10?
I lumped them together according to Microsoft versioning. I only named the Windows i've used as a consumer (hence no 2003). Following just the initial release of the major versions it holds. I know 8.1 is a completely different OS to 8, but according to Microsoft it's not :)

Most Windows were fixed later though with service packs etc. So this list should be taken with a grain of salt of course

Because we can borrow money at an interest rate lower than inflation. Most other countries with a AAA credit rating can also, even if they're not on USD.

But this is a result of the pandemic and shouldn't be taken as a direct indicator of economy health. We haven't had something of this magnitude in almost 100 years, and so far we've fared MUCH better than the 30s.

> Printing free money has consequences

Yet the story we heard over and over from "experts" was that for some complicated theoretical reason exploding the money supply wouldn't cause inflation --- and then, after inflation became impossible to just ignore, that the inflation was due to complicated "supply chain hiccup" and would be "transitory". Whatever.

Common sense is a real thing that exists. Expertise doesn't make someone correct: it just makes him knowledgeable. An expert under pressure to arrive at a false conclusion (often for political reasons) will use that knowledge to bamboozle you.

The general public should think more critically and reflect on why they allowed motivated economic experts to tell them blatant (and not just in hindsight) lies about the consequences of running the money printer.
No, 100%, once inflation is undeniable, the Fed will be pressured to deflate by raising interest rates (and the "taper" talk is exactly the beginning of this and is expected before year's end).

This article is about what you say "yes" to at the start, rather than meeting your commitments.

Do we have any evidence of this? Walmart still sells non-great value products (started in 1993!) while I get why copying a niche product might cause the original manufacturer to die out and if there are examples of this I am more than willing to change my opinion.

If you actually take a look at their offering (https://www.amazon.ca/-/en/stores/page/BFAE3282-E15B-47EE-90...), most of these are legitimately "basics", things that existed 50-100 years ago. Wilson won't die out because Amazon sells a volleyball, nor will Duracell because of offbrand AA batteries
People love to say that, but it's actually supply slide shocks that are usually the primary culprit in inflation.

The fed has been "helicoptering" money for years, but it has only been this year, when there have been real and substantial breakdowns in the supply chain and labor markets, than inflation spiked so much.

Was the same with OPEC in the 70s, Zimbabwe, Weimar Germany - in all those cases there was a major destruction or restriction of supply capacity, not just money printing.
One notable element from the article is that Amazon.in was intentionally going to the same manufacturers and plants being used by the 'top' brands they were cloning so they could bring to market products with the exact same dimensions manufactured in the same plants presumably by the same people.
