This is super cool. I’ve been formulating a similar idea for a while now. I’m building a desktop utility for guitarists using clojurescript and Tauri. I also wonder if this can also capture ASIO audio streams in a useful way? My goal was to do something like that to allow streaming of processed audio.

Some differences in what I was planning and accompanying thoughts:

Clojurescript. I do like that it’s using Svelte, I just wanted more idiomatic support for datalog stuff for the purpose of building metadata-driven music theory tools. Svelte is super cool though, and is my go to JS tool right now. There’s always Datalevin, a portable datalog implementation that I found recently. Currently I’m using a locally running XTDB instance for development, but for the final shippable I may switch to Datalevin. If anyone is interested in doing some similar you could try XTDB over http or figure out a nice way to interface with Datalevin from other languages.

Electron -> Tauri. Better native feel and the ability to hit Rust code directly. May not be worth it for this project since it seems like C++ is being used for some stuff. But for me Rust is a better fit. As a side note I think the Tauri team is working on support for interchangeable back ends, so soon you could replace Rust with Go or whatever. Tauri also makes including accompanying binaries easy. Not that I’m saying electron doesn’t, I have no idea.

Capturing ASIO streams. Super important for getting good sound for most people, allowing people to play audio through interfaces and mixers while still capturing it. I’m not expert in ASIO or audio streaming, but from my understanding capturing ASIO streams directly is tricky. Reastream (a reaper plugin) is the only thing I’ve found that lets this happen, and sadly it doesn’t work well with other DAWs. Why this would be useful IMO: people can stream audio while still listening to the processed output through whatever means they already do. Guitarists could process audio in a DAW or plugin and both listen to and stream that audio. People using DAWs can stream the output of the DAWs master channel without compromising how they listen to it. I’m not saying sub.live doesn’t accomplish that, I just think it’s important either way. Typically this is the missing link that makes other methods of audio streaming difficult.

Open source. Makes me sad that it isn’t. Could have been a good building block and I definitely would have tried to be involved right away. Feel free to correct me if this is actually open source and I just misunderstood.

I find dependency arrays to be neither intuitive or easy to debug. When you're missing a parameter or use the wrong one React can emit some pretty weird side effects that are hard to track down back to the dependency array.

I generally like shaping my components as functions first and use hooks because I have to in order to do this but definitely not because I find them easier to understand than component lifecycle methods (even if they may be less verbose).

To me, hooks are the ugly part, writing component as a single function is the part that makes it worth it.

Jobs by Isaacson. Any book by Isaacson or some other famous author will always be exceptions. Autobiographies are also different than either biographies or something in the middle. I’d think the former sell worse.

Bezos, Jack Ma, Jobs, Schultz are known as the person not just the company they [co]-founded, but for their industry as a whole while also being revered. Schultz might be an exception there. Not sure since his takes of getting into politics as an out of touch billionaire is the thing that comes to mind now.
how about removing videos showing people smoking, because that too is bad for health
Most of the stacks are already at 6 high https://www.tiktok.com/@stanimal18/video/7019310183545376006. The automated storage & retrieval system cannot go higher. Peel pile would be great if the empty containers did not have to be taken to Dallas. It is questionable if this is a government failure to zone empty buffer yards out in desert as there would be even less of an incentive to return the empty containers; changing the zoning at the secondary yards does not fix the underlying incentive issue and should only be put in place once the ratio of the rate at which new containers are being received to the rate at which containers are leaving begins to decline to accelerate the removal of the bottleneck. The storage fee needs to be raised to a point at which it is justifiable to move the empty containers out over processing fully loaded containers until the storage bottleneck is removed. Changing the zoning before figuring out the rate problem almost surely will just make the bottleneck worse. It would also be interesting to know if it would be feasible to make the containers able to be disassembled and multi-packed into an empty container.
zoning is very easy for local busybodies to capture, since normal people don't have time to give a crap (work to do, errands to run, kids to take care of, etc.). and those busybodies with the most time (older, wealthier) want very restrictive zoning. (see also: HOA regulations). the particular issue here is defined by local zoning.

Japan managed to arrest housing prices by moving zoning definition to national rather than local level, where local busybodies do not have the critical mass needed to do regulatory capture. Local areas can still decide what zoning to put where, but it's not nearly as ridiculously specific as American zoning can be. (e.g. you can sell lemonade out of your driveway, but not craft beer; or you can't run a hair salon, but you can run a daycare from your house, but only if you watch a maximum of five kids. etc.) California is now trying a similar tack by loosening zoning regulations at the state level.

At the very simplest, the CEO of a large shipping company should have better contacts to suggest these things to than posting them to the world on twitter and hoping the tweet goes viral enough that somebody in charge notices.

Somebody in the mayor's office should have been getting in contact with people at the major shipping companies, asking for suggestions like this, rather than waiting until a twitter thread got viral enough to embarass them into taking action.

That sounds amazing. It makes me want to learn more about transistors, and how CPUs actually work at an EE level.

It's not at all clear to me that it does prepare you for the real thing. I think one could very plausibly argue the opposite: it's so massively easy-mode that it gets you used to social interactions being easy and low-friction, and through habit it raises the barrier to practising the real thing.
This is very clever. I could imagine this makes drivers pick other times to drive eventually so once this is common enough, then at certain times there would be very little traffic. If cities were effectively car-free for just 30 minutes in the morning that could make a huge difference in the number of people riding bikes.

Let's not imagine an unlikely scenario. None of this is likely true for US' cities.

> someone would come in and buy it off your hands for a huge premium.

This is still a far future.

> If your house was rezoned for apartment buildings and the demand existed

It's still better for you that only demand exists, but not supply.

To be honest, I doubt nimbyists are even interested to move. They just want their neighborhood to stay relatively the same (quiet, fewer people, safe, less crowded).

Either way we look at it, this kind of points are likely cons, not pros.

> sure but that's why you want to build more pedestrian friendly neighborhoods and public transit so people don't have to drive everywhere.

I laughed a little, assuming this is a US city.

Again, I don't own a house, so it's not that I agree or disagree with nimby. But I can understand why nimby hates new buildings next to their houses. It's just a lot more cons than pros.

Quite frankly: that line should be parents to draw and enforce, within reason. The liability should not be on the dating sites to prevent it from happening, not should they be forgiven for ignoring it when it does happen and it's brought to their attention.

I'm in the unenviable situation of having had one of my big projects shut down for precisely this reason: it's too expensive to moderate sites that kids may use. The reason for that is actually very simple, proved by data, and verboten to say.

As a cancer patient, it seems absolutely necessary to do a biopsy to know what your wife is dealing with.

Before i had my diagnosis 3 doctors suspected 3 different more or less bad conditions from CT and MRT.
After the biopsy the different diagnosis was 100% clear within a week.

The biopsies i had where not much of a thing, local anaesthesia and they stick a big needle into you while your in the CT.
I could always go home the same day and didn't need any pain meds afterwards.

interesting suggestion!

given that alas consumers of the world are expected to enjoy bundled finished products, it seems semi unlikely. so perhaps this suggests a great use case for stream seperators like the one posted a couple hours ago Cassiopeia[1].

ultimately i'd love for music to be more like html- an encoring of content that the user's agent then renders as it sees fit. having individual streams, or something even more complex lije an ambisonic recording that encodes position would unlock a lot of experimentation & play. i had not considered though how useful such discreization could aid in visualization, which right if the curf sounds very promising.

I know you meant that casually, but I think it could be an American powerplay to keep China in check. If historical American influence are any indicator, they are not going to sit idly by and watch China achieve great feats and eat away American domination. They are probably strategising right now to stifle this growth. If so, TSMC could become a collateral. Intel would become the American reliable silicon provider for the western world.

I feel like a conspiracy theorist saying what I said, but a part of me seriously believes USA is capable of doing and thinking exactly like this.

So your parent implied borrowing and selling the stock immediately to "receive cash from your broker now" and by doing so they are required to return the stock (unless the company goes bankrupt). In this way, you are both correct about what shorting a stock is.

However, options are NOT like this. With options, the write side could receive a premium on their side of a contract for guaranteeing either to sell the shares at a specified price (a write-call) or guaranteeing to buy the shares at a specified price (a write-put). In either case, the person buying that contract can choose to either execute that contract or let it expire, meaning it could be the case that the writer (who receives a premium) may never have to act further (because the contract buyer never executes it, so the writer just pockets the full premium).
Unless it's a black neighborhood, in which case it's cheap enough to bring in big polluters?

A default assumption that industrial processes are safe unless specifically regulated to say they're dangerous sounds like a shell game. The industry will chge between dangerous pollutants fast enough to be one step ahead of regulators, or pay regulators off to allow their pollutants.

It's right to assume all industrial work is dangerous
I think probably C is a better fit for the kind of things you're doing. Or is it the other way around? The reference implementation for JPEG is in C, and ease of implementation in C was probably a significant criterion for this and other standards. I tend to see lots of structs, bit-packing, and bitwise operations that don't make as much sense in APL. I wouldn't say that addition modulo specific powers of two is inherently "practical" or "mathematical", it's just what a CPU provides. APL's not interested.

That said, Rosetta Code has many examples of common algorithms in J, an APL relative. I looked up Huffman Coding there and found a link[0] to an implementation that looks okay. But J's likely to stumble on some JPEG-specific details, and you won't get C-level performance with this sort of code.

I have spent a lot of time in Barcelona, and love the city, although I’ve only had short stays (~weeks) and haven’t resided there in the traditional sense. I think increasing car hostility makes it less hospitable and accessible to many people away from the core. There’s also a tradeoff which isn’t being acknowledged here. A city that manages its density appropriately will have faster travel times via cars compared to public transit or biking (BCN may be past this inflection point). You can see this in cities like Seattle - it’s not even a close comparison, as driving is at least twice as fast as any alternate mode. That time saved is very valuable, and necessary for anyone who wants to live a rich, fulfilled lifestyle with room for activities, families, and friends.

> Secondly, raised lanes are horrendously expensive, ugly, and reduce street level light.

Having bikes in roads is expensive too. It costs everyone time, which is money. Ugly is subjective. And as for street level light - maybe. That depends on the exact parameters like road width. On a wider arterial road a raised greenway on pillars wouldn’t cast a shadow on the street level sidewalks. Chicago has an elevated rail system for example, and it doesn’t cause streets to feel dark.

> Cities should serve people, not cars.

Respectfully, this is an empty slogan. You could just as well say “cities should serve people, not bikes”. Cities serve people better by accommodating cars. People are who chose to raise taxes and spend money on roads for cars.

As institutions go, and depending on the nature of the content, I suggest considering saving it in https://FamilySearch.org , if it fits properly in a "stories" or "photos" or such concept that can be related clearly to family history.

It is sponsored by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which is almost 200 years old as an organization, which plans to last for a very long time; financially conservative (strong savings and effectively no debt), tech savvy, have strong traditions of decisions by consensus (or unanimity of leaders), and owns among other things a climate-controlled vault inside a granite mountain that has contained large amounts of microfilmed genealogical records (now digitized -- yay!). As family-oriented (ie, for preserving multigenerational culture among other things) as they come. One goal is to learn Adam's/everyone's family tree, as far as possible, and keep it forever. There are of ~ 17 million members (I am one), and for many reasons it seems likely to stick around a long time (I gather that Tolstoy also thought so, when he visited, when it was much smaller :) . (They also own Brigham Young University aka BYU, and holds a twice-yearly conference whose contents are translated to like >90 languages, I think several dozen languages live during it, and heard or read by people in some 220 countries, if my rough memory serves.)

I guess the site could have some size limit on what can be added from one person's account, or attached to one particular ancestor, or something, but the web site with all features is free, and I don't know why that would ever change. I used to work there (among many) on some back-end stuff.

(Edits to the above for clarity, working there, and the Tolstoy & BYU mentions.)

Edit: I'm curious: what is the general nature of the content you would like to save for 500 years? Sounds intriguing. Would it be useful to others also? Another idea would be to put it in wikipedia and/or archive.org, if it really doesn't fit in familysearch.org .
That makes two of us. But if your takeaway from the 90s was 'W3C was in the right and timely, and MS decided to go another way just because,' then we have very different memories.
