> I wonder if there would be a market for a "stricter mode" version of JavaScript that simply does not allow you to use the legacy features that are so quirky.

It's almost like we could use a better frontend language. Too bad there isn't some magical universal assembly language supported by all major browsers we could use as a launchpad for such a thing ;)
While I certainly can fathom that other newer technologies are capable of solving interesting problems, I think my assertion is that the additional value they provide is not worth the risks involved in trying them.
If you start scaling and running more than one instance, each instance would run the same periodic jobs. Shouldn't periodic jobs be off loaded to a queue and worker(s) to process to the messages?
For those having hardware supporting TPM and compatible with Windows 11.
Right back at you? Mainstream social media is a cesspool, see Twitter & Reddit.
> A very common example of this is people suggesting to remove private profits from the modern economy. It seems like a really good way to cut down waste and save costs in theory, but it never worked in practice if you do it for the whole economy. It does work really well for some problems, but for many others those private profits seems to be a necessary evil for the system to work well.

> What those people are missing is that private profits is a really good instrument for allocating resources and performing quality control efficiently in many sectors.

Such a ‘whole economy’ system was being built by Allende’s socialist government in Chile in the form of project Cybersyn (with the help of a well known British cyberneticist). This was before the Chilean bourgeoisie, backed by US imperialist forces, coup-ed Chile: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJLA2_Ho7X0

An exciting project called http://valueflo.ws is being developed by http://mikorizal.org and others that reminds me a lot of Cybersyn.

Yeah, depression is imaginary.

Lol at bullying being more controversial.

But yeah life is harsh and the world is shit. And death is inevitable.
My perspective comes from having found Ruby a lot easier as a (mostly) beginner after having mostly just used Flash than I found JavaScript 2 years later when I decided to move to the front-end. Since that time, JavaScript has become considerably more complex as new features have been added and its ecosystem has grown.

IMO learning very beginner-friendly language like Ruby to a low-intermediate level first actually speeds up the process of getting to an employable level with a more difficult language like JS.
How do colors of ethnic kurtis define your personality?
That’s true. But also, presumably, these companies outsourced their supply chains etc because it was (or seemed) profitable.

There is still a disconnect for me. First everyone outsources, apparently successfully for automotive, and that’s great, all these joint ventures between car makers etc. Then Tesl comes along, integrates everything, and poof that’s also good..?
I would love to see this edited into some viewscreen images on the NCC-1701[-D] bridge.
>Essentially the government has built a surveillance state by outsourcing it to private enterprise.

How long until the government finish outsourcing of all its attributions to private entities and corporations take ownership of governance? Then instead of voting, the citizens can manifest their interests through buying shares.

More than that. There are apps that have “beauty filter” that can airbrush your face, enlarge your eyes, and reduce your jaw in real time.

Upgrading to a new OS on release day without a prior backup. You like to live dangerously, do you?
Do you assume that the FBI does not have a similar document for Cloudflare (or any VPN or DoH provider)? I think it's probably healthy to assume that your accessed host history is semi-public regardless of how well you try to protect it. Note that even with esni your ISP or your VPN's ISP will still know the IP addresses you're getting to, and in most ordinary cases can do a reverse lookup.
I am not really worried about peak oil, and if I was, I'm not sure how driving to LA would really improve that situation.

People have been worrying about Peak Oil since the 70s, and none of these dire predictions have come to pass. You would think at some point they would give up on the collapse narratives, but for a minority of people these doomsday predictions have a strong appeal. Here I include both "climate collapse" as well as oil collapse, population collapse, and any other collapse narrative in the bucket. I think we lost something when we no longer have monastaries in which people whip themselves, because it clearly meets a deep psychological need.

New technologies come online to replace old tech in terms of fossil fuel extraction, more efficient uses of fossil fuels, and replacement forms of energy as we run out. Big progress is being made in all three areas at the same time, and oil remains remarkably cheap in inflation-adjusted terms. That's not to say that 100 years from now we will keep digging fuels up from the ground and burning them. Who knows what will power the future? But something will power it.

The planes will keep flying, and they will be cheaper and more frequent than today, just as some unhappy people will keep insisting that the sky is falling. The future is one of energy abundance, and constantly improving transportation technology.
There is only a civil police here im disgusted when i see videos of how American officers behave they have never learned about disarming with anything but violence absolutely disgusting, here they need atleast 7 years of education, college 3 years then Police academy 2 years then 2 years in trainig this includes fitness and mental tests, in America it seems like they just get a bunch of gear and then off to the Streets. They are one of the reasons why i would never visit america just seems downright dangerous.. sorry for my rant.
What matters are the phones that regular users get.

You can also develop whatever you feel like for games consoles with hacked kits from homebrew, and nobody cares that they exist, beyond a very tiny group.
For me this was very true, yes. Though a lot of it was just the organizing of curated topics I wouldn't have known to pick up. These days you can get all of that on github though (i.e. the open source computer science education)
The major manufacturers still might catch up - once they really start caring. I agree with the posters elsewhere in the thread that predict the fossil fuel industries will collapse rapidly, rather than gradually - and the way I see it, major car manufacturers are still mostly trying to extract as much value now as possible from the ICE market.

But once the floor falls off? They won't go gentle into that good night. I expect a wave of bailouts, consolidation and rapid retooling (and playing every dirty trick in the MBA book there is). I wouldn't discount the possibility that some of the survivors will have enough infrastructure and engineering competence remaining to quickly become a serious competitor for Tesla. In parallel, Tesla itself may fall prey to one of many ways companies decay over time. And then, of course, there's China.

But all in all, as long as Tesla's current performance pushes EVs over the threshold of market acceptability (which I believe it did a few years ago) and gives it some serious momentum, it's "mission fucking accomplished", regardless of who's the market leader in 10 or 20 years.
>I really think that we’ve allowed the surveillance state to form without actually having a meaningful public debate about it.

Isn't it for the "Greater Good™", as always? :D
Isn't Tesla one of the least capital efficient ways to invest in transport electrification? How much of that will end up in genuine R&D and furtherance of your aims, as against paying for transient meme interest and massive risk loading?
Neat, thx!
2000m is the standard for benchmarking yourself. Legs/back/arms are three distinct movements - when you are done pushing with your legs and they are fully extended you should still be upright, then lean back, then arms. The arms should just be dead weight used as a hook for the oar up until the last part of the drive. Engaging them throughout will tire you faster. Reverse the order on the way back to the catch.

If you're feeling particularly motivated - bring a bucket ;)
> I don't think mathematicians look scornfully upon people doing the mapping between applied and theoretical domains. On the contrary, I think there's a lot of respect (and perhaps some envy).

Proper abstract mathematicians view applications not with scorn, but as a challenge to come up with even more abstract math. :)

Nice strawman

Make an effort, coward.
It seems to me that there is a bias for complexity among software engineers. When faced with a problem, they seem to be deliberately choosing the most complex possible solution for it.

When another programmer runs a problem and proposed solution by me, the most common answer that he gets is: "the solution to that problem can be a lot simpler". Then he thinks about it and comes up with a significantly simpler, better solution on the spot. But I notice a touch of irritation, a hint that he doesn't really want to do it the simple way. It baffles me.
I don't think I've ever encountered a student lacking the intelligence needed to succeed (I find that to largely be a myth after mentoring hundreds of students... literally anyone can code) -- it's always external factors, like too many jobs, kids, not enough motivation, etc., that get in the way.
Please please write on Substack/medium etc.

The voices of people like you —- and those who lived through the cultural revolution in China or its consequences — are priceless right now.
Wait, Singapore has the death penalty? I thought it was such an exemplary modern country?
It might be unpleasant for the US citizens. But US is conducting mass surveillance against foreign nationals and that is not cool.
The low code - no code space is a wide spectrum. There are platform sitting at different points on the scale. Completely no code to increasing level of coding . Accordingly a user can get the flexibility to build.
I have recently started development in the low code space and worked mostly on the internal tools development.
I have been using DronaHQ platform to develop internal tools, i feel the platform sits in between the spectrum, offering good no code solutions and also the flexibility to incorporate custom code in baked in.

The distinction in meaningless. We exist, ergo intelligent life can develop in this universe.
- People realize what a game changer it is to charge your car overnight and start every day with a full tank of "gas". It's a tiny detail, but a car that can only go 100 miles before needing to refill the gas tank is annoying. A car that starts every day with a 100 miles of range is terribly (for the oil companies) convenient.
Sorry, but while Apple did succeed in manhandling the music industry, iTunes has never been a beloved piece of software. It has always been trash and barely worked. So to put it on some kind of pedestal is disingenuous, at best.
A lot of people in the US don't like tomatoes as well. One of my friends told me he hated them until he moved to another country and then found out what they were supposed to taste like.

The only good tomatoes I've had in the US come from friends' gardens.

The IKEA catalogue through the ages
My belief is that Apple will eventually try to lock down macOS entirely or move to something similar to iOS sandboxing. This would more or less solve your problem and not hurt the majority of people’s experience. However, to make the OS good enough for software development, Apple will make it easy to create virtualized environments. This to me seems like the correct trade off and might actually be a net win for most. I have never understood why it’s a good idea to mess with your core OS to get some code to compile - use something where you don’t have to worry every time there is an OS upgrade.
Looking at the data in your second link, the performances differ by less than 3%. Looks like paulmd’s assertion that both are the same cpu core is fairly well supported by the data.
This, but without the /s.
I think many users, even if they do know that their information is being sold around, don't care. They don't know how it may effect them negatively.

Especially since it's been happening for awhile now and nothing outright bad has happened to most individuals. They just enjoy using Instagram. They see a targeted ad and are like "oo scary... they know me" and then continue on.
It's much worse, though. If you fail out of college, you can still transfer many of your credits years later to another institution, and simply having "some college" on your resume is enough to get your foot in the door at a lot of places. Having "some bootcamp" is not going to have the same effect (in some cases some college plays better than having graduated from a bootcamp, even), plus the debt you have is not subsidized by the federal government in any way.
People are generally shifting toward green investments in their long term portfolios in my little sphere of the world, but Tesla typically isn’t one of them because it’s considered too risky.

That risk is what made a lot of people rich of course, but investments in green energy companies in Denmark have seen a 15-35% increase in value, year by year, over the past decades without any real risk. It’s been safer than index funds here.

All energy companies have really, but you feel better when they are green.

Tesla may yet revolutionise batteries the same way the personal computer or the smartphone became something we all have, and thus be the best investment you could make right now, but it also might not.

The energy companies on the other hand aren’t going to stop selling a steady flow of energy to people. Why we let investors benefit from utilities is another discussion, but as long as we do, it’s going to be some of the safest investments you can get into.

Question: why are pictures taken from the space station showing really dark space ? The pictures of the mosaic have many stars and I guess the milkyway can be observed from earth too. So why all that black on the photos taken from space ? An issue with contrast ?
Win11 with the tpm requirement is part of their control ratchet. Microsofts gameplan is not new, nor is it super secret. They've been ratcheting up signing control. Meanwhile all their competitors fully own the app install process and earn those juicy 30% fees.

Put another way, if I sounds like a duck and walks like a duck: do you really think Microsoft isn't envious of the appstore?
> College is gated by GPA and standardized test scores

I recently learned this is increasingly no longer true. Many top institutions have made standardized test scores optional in recent years, and we're a few years away from it becoming normal to not even take the SATs and get into multiple ivy league schools as a top student.
Nice keyboard, but no T9 support? It's the most important hardware/UX question, but appears last in the hardware FAQ:

"Mudita Pure has a numeric keyboard that doesn’t support T9, which encourages people to type more slowly and really focus on what they’re sending. We call it ‘mindful typing’. Knowing the limitations of typing on a physical keyboard, we will also have a desktop app that allows you to type on your computer if you need to send a longer message. We prefer triple clicks, over imperfect predictions."

Crazy... (or maybe just cost-cutting?)
The WABetaInfo account on Twitter said one is finally coming. And I think it seems likely considering we don't need the phone to be on while using Whatsapp Web.
Tesla's stock price has become a self-fulfilling prophecy.

It seems like Tesla's success combination of a genuinely good product, the Musk hype (and troll) machine, early mover advantage, and most importantly access to cheap capital to build vertically integrated manufacturing and distribution operations that are unheard of in this industry.

Tesla's playbook is also unusual and contrarian to traditional wisdom on a number of things - unlike most tech companies, they outsource very little of their core manufacturing, making it an extremely capital intensive operation; they rely on their CEO trolling on Twitter for building hype for their products; they make promises which they almost always underdeliver and frustrate early adopters with quality issues; they make unsubstantiated claims about their self driving tech and yet are still making progress that skeptics are ignoring.

This is what keeps short sellers, stock analysts, economists and B-school profs on their toes when it comes to their predictions on Tesla. Reminds me of the early days of the iPhone era where a lot of folks were convinced it is going to fail.
And macOS has just gone up to 12. They better hurry!

Isn't this sort of how it already works? Although only a few (very rich) citizens hold enough shares to actually have any clout.
I grew up in a rural town in NSW and we kids had hardly ever heard of hard drugs let alone ever having been offered any. At best, all we knew of them was that it was an overseas problem and that there were strange opium dens up in Asia somewhere.

We were never warned about drugs in primary and secondary school as there weren't any - with the exception of cigarettes, which some kids tried down behind the school toilet block but that was more a defiance of authority than a real problem. Drugs were never the topic of conversation amongst us at school.

The first time I came across discarded needles and syringes was quite some years later when I was walking around the Colosseum in Rome. It was a bit of a shock to see them in such a renowned place.

I am forever grateful that we kids grew up in such innocence of drugs (that wasn't true of other dangers however).
They probably did that because otherwise people would not accept that they had to buy new hardware in order to run it.

Honestly it's better with a version number. That way you could stay behind if you really want to. I am switching to Linux (finally) since I will simply use a remote desktop configuration for the only program I need to use for work that doesn't work on any other platform than windows.
Where does it all end? I have a feeling that in the limit this turns into thermodynamics somehow.. Let's see, a component can behave correctly in one way, but be compromised in many possible ways. Taken together compromise is a higher entropy state.

>The US system is superior to China because we have checks and balances that actually: 1) uncover this stuff, 2) share it with the public, 3) have a system to provide feedback, 4) courts to uphold rights.

1) surveillance of citizens in China it is public, no need to uncover anything
2) in China their government already shared it with the citizens since it's official policy
3) since when the feedback started to matter?
4) that it's very naive to assume that the laws and the courts will always be free of abuse and will always protect the freedoms of the citizens, protect their interests and protect the innocent, we are far from living in a perfect world: the only way to make someone can't abuse his power is to not give him that power. And they have courts in China too, if that matters.

The discussion here has me thinking of the many times I just use a simple plain text editor or notes app on my phone, when what I really needed was a lightning fast, minimal spreadsheet.

Does anyone know of such a software? Can read multiple types (csv/xlsx/maybe even m files or npy?), Does not do automatic conversions, simple editing and minimal calculation capabilities?

Sort of the vim/notepad++ of spreadsheets
Second this. Oh and it’s not reaaaaly abandoned, they just called it done.

I looked into using this as well but eventually decided against it due to the lack of active development.
That too. The technical term is "regulatory capture".
