> Japanese text written in incorrect glyph sets will stand out similarly to any native speaker of Japanese, and will give off a connotation that whoever developed this app does not care about this (often large) subset of the global user population.

More likely they'll think the content was written by a non-native Japanese speaker, judge whether that makes you trustworthy or not (based on personal experience or stereotypes or prejudice, probably a bit of all three (we're all human)) and then not buy from you. A good example would be Amazon listings in Japanese that Japanese people can tell were almost certainly written by someone Chinese, and then decide not to buy.

If you want the cash, get a proper translation. Ironically, Japan is filled to the brim with incredibly poor English and abounds with stories of native English speakers' translations and corrections being disregarded because "it doesn't sound right"… to someone who can't string a legible English sentence together.
I'll have to try this out. I'm curious how parts creation/editing has changed. I just started using Fritzing again and the parts editing is working a lot better now. I feel like it finally has enough feautures to finish a project.
Ideographic variation selectors plus a very large pan-CJK font may solve this issue in the future, but CJK fonts have already reached the OpenType limit of 65,535 glyphs so we are already running into technical issues.
Standards and browsers are already so bloated, that it's virtually impossible to create a new implementation.

This is part of the lore they told us when we did the tour at the studio a couple of years back. Not only was there almost nothing to do around there but record music, it was also a dry county. Of course they had their ways of scoring booze (and other things) anyhow, and there's even a "secret" room with a bar in the basement of the studio, but there were no clubs or the likes that they could frequent.

Moreover, very few locals actually knew them at the time. Everyone knows The Rolling Stones these days, but back then without the internet word didn't travel as fast, and very few people in Muscle Shoals or Florence at the time had even heard of the Rolling Stones let alone seen them. Apparently this was true for most artists who recorded at the studio back then. So aside from there being few distractions, the talent could actually roam free in town without being bothered by photographers or locals.

It seems to me that there was this perfect confluence of circumstances that made muscle shoals sound studio such a great place to record at the time. It wasn't far from Memphis or Nashville, while also being private, more or less distraction free, great studio musicians and engineers and perhaps most importantly a great sound.

Another cool story they told us was when the stones where there to record they didn't have all the lyrics to wild horses ready, or they had to redo parts of it, so Keith Richards (if I recall correctly) locked himself in the bathroom and didn't come out till they were done. The rest of them impatiently hanging out right outside waiting for the man to emerge with a hit. They referred to the toilet as the most important song writing room in the house. :o)

When we were there one of my buddies got so inspired by the studio that he actually came back about six months later or so and recorded with a band we'd met in Jackson the night before. Sadly the video is in black and white, but you can at least get a bit more of a sense of space in the studio than from the pictures in the article: https://youtu.be/s_HHgeKLqog

It's a wonderful place to visit, highly recommend it.

Even if this behavior is similar to how Java exceptions work, I love the way go packages are written.

Explicit error handling can be tedious, but I’m never confused about what some code will do.

Compared to Java where an exception may bubble up 10 layers to a catchall try catch statement, I actually know where the error is coming from.

Would be nice to have this abstracted away with tooling though. I would imagine go generate could be used to great effect in this arena.
He certainly is talking about education, at least, exactly as much as I was by using the word "student".

"student" just means "one who studies". It doesn't say anything about what they study or what kind of building or organizational structure they happen to inhabit at the time.

The principle I attempted to articulate is general and applies in any context, including this one.
Sure, devops tools are usually more fundamental, whereas high level languages are used for things closer to the business. Twitter's backend for example is mainly powered by Scala, but you probably don't know about it, because it is not as visible to you.
As for the RAM limitation, zswap is a great way to get some more RAM at cost of some CPU cycles which on the new Pi won't be an issue.
It seems obvious to me that the decision to remove ports and buttons is not only for the design aesthetic, but less moving parts means less problems, less weight, less insulation, less cost and more elegant wireless peripherals to sell.

If you look at it the same was as the iPhone it’s clearly the same strategy as why they removed the headphone jack and why they want to remove all the buttons, and are ultimately aiming for a clear piece of glass.

It seems this 2021 Mac is a backwards step away from that strategy, perhaps recognising people aren’t ready yet, or perhaps competition and ecological concerns are becoming too big to ignore, either way, this will be a short lived regression, I’m sure.

This is probably less readable than it has to be due to the lack of whitespace. I don't know the language (Scala?), but I don't think it's too hard to work it out. First, the '[F[_], A, B]' part are type parameters, where I assume the 'F[_]' part is just a bad notation for a type of kind '* -> *' (i.e. a higher-ranked type). The next value parameter has type 'Option[A]', and after that we have 'A => F[B]'. This confirms my suspicion that 'F' is a higher-ranked type - and probably a functor or something. The 'f' parameter is a function for converting a value of type 'A' into a value of type 'F[b]', which looks like it's tranforming a value and putting it into a functor or something. The final '(implicit F: Applicative[F])' hints at deep problems in the language, but I think it basically just says something like 'the higher-rank type F must implement the trait/typeclass/whatever Applicative'.

That's the type. The expression makes little sense to me, but I suspect you removed a bunch of dots and maybe some parens, and it should actually look like this:

fa.map (a => F.map(f(a))(Some(_): Option[B])).getOrElse(F.point(None))

So this function essentially just operates on an option value inside of some functorial context. This seems like a building block function that you might use often, but probably not write very frequently.

(If you didn't remove anything, then I suppose this language has infix 'map' and 'getOrElse' operators. I think that's bad, but it's not related to the type system.)

The tradeoff is not so clear cut. When disassembling more parts, more can go wrong. This is true for the MBP, and especially for the iPhone. Screws can get damaged, misplaced or swapped, which can be disastrous because they have different lengths.

Thanks for the clarification ! :)

Not an advice, but you should probably consider spinning a secondary product from DuckDB with a sole focus on "reading data from parquet files and running aggregations the most efficiently possible". You can probably skip INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE completely.

There is currently a gap in practical solutions for this pain point. You can use Spark or Airflow, but nothing that comes without a big infra price tag (you can do that with pandas, but you need a large instance to load the entire dataset in memory). I think the right product could even outpace what you currently have with DuckDB.
I really should look into virtualized rendering; turns out I've got some really long lists that are mostly hidden (overflow: hidden I think) that shouldn't be rendered.

Surely the change to USB-C was a compatibility thing, as the chipset is Intel based, it’s probably easier to supply.

Now it’s their own chip, it makes sense that they have now switched to their own proprietary solutions.
The explanation that comes to mind to me is that "thanks" and especially "thanks in advance" are more likely to come at the end of emails that actually require a response, e.g. "Could you send me that TPS report with the new cover sheet? Thanks, Bill".
I think they re-classified it and it's no longer available over the counter. As far as I'm aware it was not banned entirely. I wouldn't know, I stocked up considerably right after the ban, before it disappeared from online stores (but after it already disappeared from Amazon). I figure they wouldn't ban it if it didn't work, like most supplements.
I've also read that modern digital communication signals would appear very similar to normal random RF noise.

You can reach collectivism only trough authoritarianism.

Do you know any collectivist society above 1 million people that was not authoritarian?

Even China learned from the mistakes of collectivist ideas and moved towards socialist market economy which lead to the greatest uplifting of people from the extreme poverty in the whole history of human species.
Off topic, but if you have young kids you might find yourself starting to say things like:

- Don't touch dad's laptop!!!
- Dad needs to sleep now...

Soon you may be asked by friends why you sometimes speak of yourself in third person, long after the little one started understanding pronouns. You might also recover some sleep.
> The "first" comment is offtopic; pirated content is not the issue here,

We are not talking about links to piratebay. If I post a picture of a cat, someone else may own the copyright to that; there is no way for a reviewer to tell.

This matters a great deal because by arguing against Safe Harbor you want to make Facebook legally responsible for stolen cat pictures because how they order their newsfeed with a popularity algorithm.

Today, any website is already responsible for their own publishing, and has Safe-Harbor for user-comments; the New York Times benefits from this as well.

If you want to make a narrow argument that Facebook should not have Safe-Harbor for illegal outcomes attributable to the algorithm itself, in its totality over all of Facebook content, rather than any individual post, then by all means. I am sure an intrepid prosecutor could pursue this line of argument today.

> The desired course of action is to 1) implement steps to prevent this sort of action in the future, and 2) to hold to account those responsible for those actions, who quite clearly showed wanton disregard for the consequences of their actions.

That seems pretty generic.

Prosecutors in the US are extremely powerful; they are populist, as they often need to be elected; their Democratic base is incensed.

They have every reason and incentive to prosecute those who have posted on Facebook for Riot Act violations; this doesn't seem to have happened; why?
Porting Takua Renderer to 64-bit ARM- Part 1
That makes sense. Ideally in that scenario you don't set it at table row level, rather at a higher container level. In this case a container wrapping things far down the page. Your markup structure of course has to support this.
Strongly agree. Some people like to be on this endless treadmill of cutting edge features, like in this case parametric polymorphism but I refuse to be dragged in. They just make the code more complex with no benefit.

Next thing you know they will try to force me into structured programming (I'm sure there are people already working on do...while). They can pry goto from my dead cold hands.
Your daily reminder to not publish on stupid Medium.
It's easy to underestimate how fast a plain vanilla HTML table can be. It gets a lot more heavy if you start doing things like sorting, column resizing, filtering, and of course it depends on what you have inside of them.

One perf issue I ran into on an older application I'm maintaining was that on render, a callback would iterate over ALL cells to add a drag handle to them, so that a user could change the column width anywhere. That quickly ran a few hundreds of thousands of times.

>Refreshing state is only more efficient than creating/destroying items in some systems and its performance characteristics are again highly dependent on the content of each list item in your application.

YEs it depends but 99% of cases you refresh the string for some Label/Text components and some img src , since you do it with native code it will be much faster then creating new DOM elements or changing a DOM element attribute. Plus hacked-up widgets that are not native are forced to listen to tons of events and run non-native code to detect if they should or not run and what to do when to run.

TLDR the problem was solved, we need good enough widgets like in good toolkits and we can still give people the option to create their own "improved" version with their cool library if they want.

In the Royal Navy, written letters to the captain [1] have to be signed off with "I am honoured to be, Sir, your obedient servant". I remember (in 2010) people thought this was stupid and instead used something like "Yours sincerely". But this ran contrary to regulations, and it was announced that letters would be rejected if not signed properly. Time moves very slowly in the RN.

[1] There are codified degrees of formality for written communications. Formal, demi-formal, and others used more operationally. I am talking about first-tier formal letters to senior officers in this case.
Drowning in Data: Why It’s Time to End the Healthcare Data Lake
> Were China to invade, they would have done it by now I think, especially in the turmoil of Afghanistan.

I believe a big misperception about China attacking Taiwan is that this will be driven by external considerations more than internal considerations. IMO economic and political turmoil in China is the biggest threat to peace and stability in the region. Right now, China is less likely to risk a major conflict with the US, which could also result in conflict with Japan, Australia, South Korea and India among others, so long as the CCP can maintain the belief among the Chinese people that China is on the rise and it will deliver on its promises for broad prosperity.

The problem is that China's economy is a house of cards. Evergrande is just the tip of the iceberg and one would be wise to ask why Xi is testing an economic shakeup involving various industries in pursuit of a "common prosperity" that China was supposedly well on the way to delivering already with its existing model that has produced the miracle growth of the past decades.

its a good read but remarkably it manages not to mention once the fediverse (and mastodon in particular) where alternate strategies are already facing empirical validation.

if they did do a more thorough research of how it is setup they would know that some very simple choices have huge calming effect: e.g., not showing the number of "likes" on the timeline and not allowing "comments" on reposts. and those are just tiny interventions in the scheme of things. having open source codebases that can be forked but still interoperate via activity pub means that a fragmentation, speciation, niche creation will happen organically which will further reduce the phenomenon of irrate digital mobs
