I think it's the familiarity factor.

It's pretty close to the way you'd work with C#/Java. If you were coming from that type of background, it's an easier transition.

A plus, and also a minus, of Angular is that it's pretty "self-contained". There's first party tools built-in, that are maintained by Angular. You also don't have to endlessly tweak Webpack which is also a plus.

That self-containment has also led to a less vibrant ecosystem in my opinion. There's more React "stuff" out there than for Angular.

Also, if you're the "mythz" I think you are, just want to say I'm a big fan of ServiceStack and you do great work on it.

Just wish I could work somewhere that uses it instead of primarily working with it on my personal projects. Given how the .NET community "works" though, I fear that might not happen. Conversation for another thread though. Kudos again.
Ask HN: Best speech-to-text resource?
Anyone know any good speech to text resources Ive tried a few but they keep not writing down the correct words looking more free and open source links.

I have terrible spelling and grammar as I suffer from Dyslexia and the speech to text kind of helps me. I can write but it's harder for myself then speaking. I can read ok my the spelling part is difficult as I mix words and letters up and spend most of my time just checking and rewriting large portions of my narratives.
Have you tried any package manager tool that support taking a snapshot of your current whole setup (i.e. all the exact package version you are using)? Then on your new environment, it can be restored by the snapshot you saved before.

Here is one I'm using https://github.com/raxod502/straight.el (it works for me except the overwhelming document).
Dude, just give up. He called you delusional. He won the argument. Your facts and logic don't matter here anymore. You had the opportunity to call him delusional, but he beat you to it. Sorry bud, better luck tomorrow
Honestly I feel the opposite. Genshin is what BOTW should've been graphics/gameplay/art-wise. Given that I paid $60 for BOTW I feel it would be fair to pay a similar amount into Genshin's store given how much more enjoyment I got out of it.

My main two concerns with the game are that there is the "Soylent is people" aspect where if you dig deeper you realize the game is funded by a small addicted minority. And second, I shudder to think what kind of 996 sweatshop that company must be given that I don't know a single western company that achieved this level of polish (and they are already known as cruel employers).
God, really? I can't take those for more than 1h at a time usually. Except Chrono Trigger I guess. Any recommendations?

Modern trucks are better than they used to be, but they seem to give most of the efficiency back in terms of larger towing/payload capacity. It's absolutely bonkers how capable a "half ton pickup" can be equipped compared to 20 years ago.
I think Adam knows what’s possible with Tailwind CSS [1], but wanted to point out that it’s not possible with just a style attribute. :-)

Hmm, I'm not quite following. Curious how this comment tie in with the one above?
GitHub Availability October 2021
I disagree and if you look at my profile I provide a explanatory url for the name. As a bastard child myself I'm not concerned and when used as noun the meaning changes. I do think it's funny that people still do not understand git well enough to realize that the default branch is whatever you want it to be. Even worse, this change/name is a click away in GitHub too. What exactly am I saying here that will be controversial in the future? I'm genuinely curious.
This is why I find these threads so frustrating.

Laws like these aren’t really to protect people. It’s to protect the current financial system where elites are given special privileges and non-elites are selectively fucked over at the whim of people in power.

This is supposedly because elites are more trustworthy and responsible but that’s been shown to be a lie.
Yes, Yes. That is known. But tell me why you'd want to have these, old, museal and free falling things, while having no delivery system to drop them much further than on your own country under realistic conditions? That's just making you a target. Why bother at all? Because of the thrall of rather dead than red?

Tomorrow, When the War Began, I'd rather rewatch both Red Dawn, Bushwick and have a real Dragon Day in The Divide.

Yee-Haw!

Here is a good "quick" review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsRixkYu5I0
I like the way they chose 'rural' which is a small difference and skip the important one

"Male teachers are about 9 percentage points more likely to have taken the mathematics
exam compared to female teachers, and 10 percentage points more likely to have chosen advanced
level mathematics rather than the basic level exam."

> They also mentioned the stat that if 1 person lived totally carbon neutral for 70 years, that would offset only 1 second of current global CO2 emissions, which I'm going to presume is sourced properly.

That's a strawman's argument and in theory would apply to anything in the context of overall society if it was true which is clearly not the case. Because if you really lived completely carbon neutral for decades, you'd probably appear in dozens of TV shows and magazines will have exclusive interviews for you. (Not sure if it's exactly NYT, but you'll sure attract interest) So other people see that and realize: wow, it's actually possible to survive for decades in a carbon neutral way.

In reality it wouldn't be that extreme but it's always a domino effect: your colleagues, friends and family see what you do and be at least lightly influenced by it. Be it just the fact that you do something that people thought would be not possible.

After all, that's how democracy works and how movements grow. It's not that your vote only depends on the campaigns but also on your peers' opinion. It's not that movements in the past haven't been succeeding.
I had always heard inline styles were slower and not recommended by browsers. Here is a blog post looking into that:

https://simonadcock.com/are-inline-styles-faster-than-atomic...

In reality the difference wasn’t so big but inline styles might not scale well. (I also realize the original poster might have been sarcastic but it’s a fun to look into even the non serious ideas).

It sounds like you were trying to use a bunch of tools without understanding what the tools actually do.

That said, webpack and jest are bloated messes and easy to break. I'd say just stick to esbuild as your lone dev dependency and get to work writing your framework-less project. Otherwise, take a look at the vanilla Vite template: https://vitejs.dev/guide/#scaffolding-your-first-vite-projec...

If you find that you want a framework (which may be inevitable), give Mithril.js a shot. It's very unopinionated.

These days I tend to only use esbuild. For testing, I use my own homerolled test utility and the built-in Node.js assert module, or uvu.
I think what you're missing here is that as soon as you start answering the questions necessary to get those tools to work together right (for example: how do you split files? how does your routing work? how does injecting replacement code for hot reload work?), you end up with a framework.
Yeah, a GSM phone would have to be really broken if it was going to trash more than two timeslots (which would happen if the clock told the wrong time.)

A CDMA phone with bad power management could wreak a lot more havoc.
My mistake... I had my phone set to "Request desktop sites by default" and forgot!

No complaints from here about the mobile UX.

> I mean I felt it wasn't that long ago Vagrant was "the" tool for the job.

Vagrant is my safety hatch, in case Docker goes under and aspect of it that's "the best centralized, cross-distro, server-oriented Linux package manager repository around" is, at least temporarily, thrown into disarray. Back to picking a distro and contorting it into what I need, in that case.

And it's still better than Docker if you're really in a hurry and need to get some pile of undocumented shit running locally ASAP.
> smart contract that is not under the control of any one business or individual

This doesn't mean it's not under control of someone or a group of people. Claiming it's not under control just means you're hiding the true controller, which might be an embargoed entity like Iran.

If you have to submit a 1,000 long list of people each of whom has a fragment of control, so be it. Or spend a few dollars getting a Delaware corp.
> Instead of optimizing for fun, or a memorable experience, or an artistic vision, you are optimizing for profit, which compromises those other things.

But this has always been true of games based on whatever market pressures optimized revenue.

In the 80s arcade games, many of the classics we love today, were optimized around you feeding as many quarters as possible into a machine in order to beat it. There's even a joke about this in Wayne's World https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4tmzwrdTmY

The 90s home console market has some classics but every 90s kid remembers awful games with great cover art or movie licensing.

Early 2000s is probably the peak of quality gaming: we were online enough to allow things like easy to access reviews to have a major impact on purchase decisions, while not online enough to make constant updates feasible.

After that we also saw the rise of extremely addictive MMORPGs that not only consumed people's wallets but their lives.

In the grand scheme of things I rather enjoy gacha games. Like most HNers I'm often in a position of having more money then time, and it's surprising how many relatively crappy gachas will evolve into pretty fun, well designed games over time.

> Is beet juice a problematic colourant?

"Problematic colourant"? Of course it's problematic. Because it's a colorant. For food! Why do you need to add color to food?

> Point is, the problem is what specifically is present or missing. Not whether it fits into some ill-defined notion of processed.

But this is what the standard you don't like is doing. It's classifying food according to what is present or missing. In particular, nutrients that you need to have in your food and stuff you don't need to.

Is it the fact that it's a general classification rather than a case-by-case analysis that is bothering you? Would you prefer it if there was a long list of foods with an annotation "processed", "ultra-processed" etc with a small discussion of what's in them that shouldn't be in there and what's not in that should?

Tailwind also offers curated (and curatable) styles instead of a free-for-all. You can set up Tailwind to exactly provide the levels of spacing, colors, fonts, etc. that you want for your design system. Tailwind is in some ways like inline CSS, but enhanced inline CSS that you can customize the options of precisely for your project/team/company. You don't have to use text-xs, text-sm, text-lg. You can use text-fineprint, text-prose, text-inyourface and configure them to be exactly the size you want. And then of course, you can change the definition of those styles in one place and have it propagate throughout your project. This is where Tailwind starts to move well beyond inline CSS.
Yes, it is their fault, but the organisation didn't even attempt to nurture professional development. Stagnation was a feature, not a bug. Arguably, these guys were paid very well so they would have taken a pay cut anywhere else anyway.

Recently I researched a dozen or two of the events on the table, and there is a lot of uncertainty of fact, issues of definition, and interpretation involved. That doesn't mean the author is wrong, but take each date as one interpretation of many.

For example, Ancient Greek, developed in ~8th or 10th century BCE (facts aren't 100% clear), is typically credited as the first phonetic alphabet, where characters represent sounds (and the only one - all others being derived from it). The OP says,

> 1850: earliest alphabetic script (Proto-Sinaitic, Sinai and Egypt)

They may mean something slightly different. Also an alphabet of sorts preceded Ancient Greek, maybe the one in the quote above, but lacked vowels among other things, so it depends on your definition of phonetic alphabet.

That's just on example, know there are many ambiguities of definition, fact, and interpretation.
Then the author/publisher is the legal entity? The code didn’t just publish itself!
> Also their Ryzen numbers are beyond suspicious. On a silent configuration (peak power draw ~209W, 175W sustained, some undervolting) my Ryzen 5900X hits a Cinebench R20 score of 8835 vs their 8390. I suspect my rig is worse since I cheaped out on the RAM, but I wouldn't know because they omit information about the Ryzen test rig.

Firmware quality for AM4 boards is ... "variable". My board restricted CPU power to 60% of nominal because they put in the wrong ADC scaling factors in some BIOS revision. Some boards have PBO enabled by default (which nets big % on the kill-a-watt, less % in performance). Many boards have bad defaults when you enable XMP which steal a few Watts from the actual CPU cores.

CB mostly scales with core frequency, memory and FCLK are less important.

> At that point some Ryzen's will be operating at close to 6GHz per core.

There's no way any of them will get close to 6 GHz without LN2.
it is 50+ euro cent per liter (platts cotation) and it's arround 15 euro cent per liter for transportation + storage and services

Fuel taxes in Germany are €0.6545 per litre for conventional unleaded petrol, plus Value Added Tax (19%) on the fuel itself and the Fuel Tax.

so the 19% VAT is 30cents + 65 cents petrol tax is 95 cents in total for tax

the remaining 65 cents are for fuel price and profit

so it's more like 150%-200% but not 300%

This is relevant to my interests (less the reproducible builds part, but very much the "well commented CI script" part), and for a frame of reference I have successfully built the last couple of brave tags because I'm persistent that way. But I haven't put it in my CI yet because they appear to clone *the whole chromium* repo courtesy of depot_tools & gclient, making the caching story very bad as that git repo is twenty two gigs (not the checkout, mind you, I mean the git repo)

Plus, the build takes several hours on my Ubuntu machine, so unknown what the CI job timeout is or how beefy the runners need to be in order to not OOM a monster C++ linker

I want to be careful with this commentary, because it's just my opinion as an outsider, and ultimately it's their project. But I struggle mightily with the decision tree that lead one to have a home grown build system written in npm that shells out to depot_tools, gclient, a bunch of manual git clones (although there are some git submodules, too), then a ... fascinating ... manual patching system layered on top of it all. I'm glad it works for them, but it makes wading in by the casual user incredibly hard.

Compare that to mozbuild (and its new "mach" friend) that as very best I can tell is python all the way down and since their CI system is also open source, one can very easily crib enough config files to build it locally
People who were adults in 1950 are often still alive. I don't know that the ones I know have strong opinions either way. They certainly like iPads after never getting the hang of computers...
My (non uk) friend ask me a simple question.. Is the 5th November a celebration of Guy Fawlkes getting captured or a celebration of him trying to get rid of the government

I thought everyone/ most UK people would know the real answer and after asking around it appears it's not clear cut.

Anecdotically (asking about 8 people from the UK) 5 people thought bonfire day was celebrated for Guy Fawlkes being captured. (ie killed for trying to burn down parliament) but a few (3) of the 5 people I asked where mostly guessing and was not really sure.
I get it. We need the tools. But, man, this all strikes me as super dicey. They’re manipulating particles without the ability to replicate, but it sure feels like they’re tinkering with humanity on the edge of a knife. I can’t help but worry something could go wrong.
I don't think it's a bad thing that most current legislation wouldn't pass as-is. If it's not popular enough to reach the required threshold on its own, then it shouldn't become law.

(CEO here) https://golioth.io is an IoT development platform that provides different cloud services for building connected hardware (security, software updates, etc.) As the creator of hardware, you write the code that runs on the hardware. So you need some way to develop that code. Setting up the compiler, build system, debugger, etc. is always a challenge, even for experienced developers.

Gitpod allowed us to build upon their container-based environment and configure it to work out of the box with all the things a developer needs to build, flash and debug hardware using Zephyr, a popular software stack & operating system for IoT devices.

So our main value is our developer platform - plus our custom-developed Gitpod configuration. We encourage you to check both out at https://golioth.io & https://gitpod.io :)

>Yes, Intel is drawing way more power for super CPU intensive tasks, but for what most people will be doing, it's pretty even.

This. I honestly don't get why people are so focused suddenly on the power consumption for a desktop CPU designed for enthusiasts who want top performance at any cost.

GPUs are consuming way more power than that(Nvidia's Ampere is a notorious power hog), pushing consumers to 700W+ PSUs and nobody bats an eye, but seem to throw their hands in the air when their CPUs get close to that of a GPU.

Like why? It's the top spec model, it's supposed to be ludicrous, not be good value for money or highly efficient, they have other models more competitive for that. It feels like people are just looking for reasons to to create outrage about a product they're not gonna buy anyway.
You are right, and this is a decent analogy, but isn't it a lot easier to say:

Look at YE 2021, they spent $140 mill on sales and marketing. Next year they could turn that down to $20 million and they would be instantly profitable and almost certainly grow a little bit too. They could also likely slash R&D and G&A by 30-40% without affecting current products. They are very valuable as is, but growing significantly (which isn't free) makes them even more valuable (most likely).

“Feeling wasteful” is not a logical evaluation of the technology. Does it feel wasteful when you used an incredibly powerful computer capable of almost anything to post a text comment to a website in the same way you could have 20 years ago?

VueJS is very lightweight and loads almost instantly. It runs on even very old computers well. Native JS will never be able to compete with frameworks because frameworks have the ability to rapidly innovate and try new things without worrying about having to keep them around forever.

IMO the browser should become something like a CPU where it provides the low level components to do anything and the website provides the framework to make it easy.

It doesn’t “feel wasteful” to use C or Python to print hello world when it could have been done in raw ASM.

Regarding your first claim; you don't even need to report gifts up to 15k/person/year. You do have to report gambling prizes, but that's because the casino wrote it off so the IRS wants to make sure somebody is paying taxes on it (lol). Whoever lost the 20 has paid taxes on it. Look in here and notice the complete lack of mentioning this case: https://www.irs.gov/publications/p525

Regarding the second claim, I guess that might get us close to the same order of magnitude (assuming people are constantly violating enforceable sections of site and app ToSes).

I want to know that a junior candidate:

* Can actually produce something

* Cares about the craft of software development (learning the why behind things instead of just copy-pasting examples until it works)

* Has the initiative to be self-directed (learning and growing and pushing through obstacles instead of just waiting for someone to tell them answers)

* Understands how to work with other humans

Everything else will come naturally if the above are true. What will make someone stand out is showing that they are outstanding in one of the above categories. Almost any side project will show the first category. A side project that involves some complexity under the hood that you can talk about and talk about the struggles of learning it is even better because it can show some of the others.
