The baby boomers are looking at the writing on the wall even as so many fall into dilemma at the hands of a decreasing few who are truly become Plutocrats. They call themselves the ultra-wealthy part of our "democracy", but with their great wealth, the Plutocrats control who stands up for elected office, the only ones we get to “vote" for. They control our government at many levels.

Just as does BlackRock run by Plutocrat Larry Fink controls the FED, from behind the veil of being a “contractor”, he/they having the decision puppet strings and influential contacts. These Plutocrats are openly given the authority to make decisions that become FED policy; the Plutocrats making government policy. A few have now even stepped out into the open to directly take control of government.

From behind the scenes with their great Billionaires status and Trillions in asset wealth - the Plutocrats control We and our capitalistic driven government. Whether it is funds acquisition and management, real estate, or consumer markets monopolies - manipulation (think Amazon), the Plutocrats have most of it now and almost all is not nearly enough for them.

So, the Plutocrats choose who we vote for, they lobby/coerce our government elected and officials at many levels, and they directly participate with and control our institutions like BlackRock-Fink and the FED.

What does this mean for future generations?
If that is the case shouldn't you call it "Intel 10nm" since that is what it was called when Intel was still using the same units as everyone else (even if those units are becoming meaningless)?

Not even Intel itself says that "Intel 7" means "7nm", right?

How to Update Elixir Dependencies?
Folks who publish stuff to PIP had the good sense to not require a hundred different other dependencies for each module they publish there. So it is tractable to just go through your entire transitive closure and ensure you're not including something you don't want.

And also, just because something is "hard" is not an excuse to just ignore it. NPM devs should be more aware of this issue, and make design decisions that improve the situation, such as, for example, not including a dep just to use a single function (the dep, by the way, might pull in 10 other deps, each of which could pull in some more). DRY is not a religious maxim, it's OK to do it to reduce "bushiness" and improve the predictability of the dependency graph.

If you're anxious enough already, then: Don't. Ever. Do. This. Videos don't help, at all. And your brain is constantly thinking about ways things might have gone wrong, while simultaneously looking (no pun) for comments from people explaining how exactly things went wrong for them!
I think this is a very very critical aspect to getting carbon neutral. If a functional drop-in motor is that cheap, and maybe 100 miles of range battery is another couple grand, you know what?

We should have a retrofit tax credit that basically covers that. All the beater cars that people commute with will stay in the market for another 15 years until truly cheap or second-hand EVs work their way through the system.

So why not give a massive distributed labor stimulus which will produce an army of grass roots worker familiar with the future drivetrain technology for the foreseeable future?

Make this practically free. $5000/car labor included. See what the market produces.

A big point against "cash for clunkers" is that it drains away the exact affordable transport that people at the poverty level need to survive. Regardless of the perverse incentives that led to rich people living in suburbs and commuting to the city, while poor people live in urban ghettos and reverse-commute to the suburbs, it's the way things are now.

And the rural areas aren't going to have functional public transport until self-driving becomes feasible in ??? years.

The fact is that modern ICE cars are pretty durable. They're going to last a long time, and the recent used car spike and component shortage will likely cause cars to stay ANOTHER 5 years longer than normal.
ExifTool is hackjob? I think not.

Bootstrap is a fully opinionated framework, tailwind is far more versatile, it has his opinions, but they aren't set in stone in the way that bootstrap is.

You can build bootstrap in tailwind, but you can't build tailwind with bootstrap.

Both are tools to help you design something, but the tradeoffs of each one are quite different.
My intent was not to fearmonger. I agree that anyone could do it (including LibreWolf). My intent was to say that the comment I responded to has a rightful place in these discussions (and further: in any discussion about privacy)

No one can do this, and because no one can, the idea itself is bunk. This idea is not worth engaging with intellectually as it’s merely just meant to serve as a means to fabricate a boogeyman to crank out articles against.

I also think this is a quite reasonable. For some work on this beyond anecdotal evidence, see https://journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/article?id=10.1371/jo... . The authors' main finding (in rats and humans) is that the perception of the intensity of a stimulus relates to the perception of its duration, i.e. more intense stimuli are perceived as longer lasting. A speculation beyond the specific study would be that more intense experience generally (perhaps due to the saliency of more unique life events) could lead to a slowed down perception of time.

ADDENDUM: The original title on HN was "Angular is Rotten to the Core". My defense was about the "core" aspect... since the core was, in my opinion, a noble attempt at making the web a better place.

(Additionally, I feel like if you're going to criticize Angular for being by Google, you can't really be recommending React. Also, not the point, but I think the “No One Got Fired For Picking Google” subheader is a weird take on the original IBM version of the quote.)
That seems like it would only further incentivize a problem we have today - wastefully holding a bunch of IPV4 addresses that you have no need for.

IMO the .com domain name fees are… acceptable. It’s similar to how we deal with scarce resources in almost every other domain. The only real improvement I can think of would be some sort of LVT-like-system where high-value domains (dictionary words, short domains) would cost more than low-value ones (robertospizzaottawa.com) to discourage camping.

Good point. I'm attempting to summarize the position of the total vaxers as best I can. Some incoherency may be unavoidable. I personally find the logic bordering the absurd...

Perhaps "some vaccinated people are still at severe risk" vs. "population level risk of severe infection is reduced by vaccines" may clarify the issue you raised.

It’s actually not about Guy Fawkes at all - it’s that an attempt to destroy Parliament was defeated.

Modern C++ was heavily influenced by the need to make it simple to use directly. If you are in the business of writing code instead of reminiscing, you can now leverage move semantics, lambdas, and smarter pointers to create software that is close to the silicon.
Python might be great, but it sure is slow. Its success is founded on smart people making it easier for not so smart people to call C++ that does the heavy lifting.
I've been using CSS Modules as well as Shadow DOM for styling for about 2 years now after ditching SCSS. I've switched over to using Shadow DOM and things like Constructable Stylesheets, but CSS Modules is still one of the best options for compatibility and ease of use (no boundary restrictions being the main one).

I've tried to like TailwindCSS. I tried to use it on a project and I just found it so complicated and messy. People are quick to say, "Oh, give it time, eventually you don't need to consult the documentation as much" which is a strange thing to me, because for normal CSS it's rare I do have to consult MDN to know something (unless it's CSS Grid syntax). If you're new to Tailwind be prepared to waste hours just consulting documentation until "it clicks". You're basically learning a new language on top of CSS. And then the resulting markup in some Tailwind apps I've seen isn't easy to read, it ends up being no different than the randomised classes that CSS Modules gives you.

CSS Modules work perfectly with design systems and other CSS additions. I even use CSS Modules with Bootstrap 5, it works well.

I'm not saying Tailwind is bad, but there is a curve when you use it. It' also feels very boilerplate-y, which I know the React crowd loves, but I don't work with React. Given the amount of work I have on my plate, I would rather stick with my current approach than lose hours in productivity because I want to change how I write my CSS.
From the issue report[1] comments:

> Thanks in no small part to your recent findings, [GitLab] are rolling back our policy about paying half-bounties for third party findings. These have great impact on GitLab and we want to continue to incentivize research for high+ severity issues in that area.

At least they're taking these things a bit more seriously now.

Why? It seems like they should have read/write but no execute. What goes wrong?
"and leads to increased pricing. " ==> I can see the effects efficient capital allocation and no limits on properties owned had on the price of properties in the past 20 years.

Don't take this the wrong way mate but this is exactly the sort of mentality that led to this situation in the first place.

Keep in mind this comes from someone that owns 8 fully paid off flats (going 9 next year) and a good sized house(enough for a family of 6-7) in the country side with 50HA of arable land+forest. I am not complaining about the current laws or that it bothered me in any way. I'm saying that current laws+ speculation are keeping youngsters away from owning a property in a reasonable ammount of time. The way I see it, they live with a chain around their neck for 1 lousy house with cardboard walls.

Outperform it assuming your workload can actually saturate 64 cores. In the desktop market though, and heck often in the server market, you're going to struggle to do that. Single thread performance is still hyper important and that isn't going to change anytime soon. Intel seem to have the edge there, in a big way.

The Andromeda Strain. The film and the book are both excellent. It's a sci-fi when all is said and done, but it sticks in the mind, and is a good symbol for/of modern scientific practice.
We’ll what you’re ignoring there is:

1. People can and do get places off campus.

2. The University already has lots of conventional dorms with windows.

3. This building costs the school nothing to build and adds massively more units than a conventional design would.

The dorm has 11,000 beds. It’s hard to overstate just how cost-effective that is.

From what I’ve heard, the plan is to rent these out for $1000 a month, which unfortunately still counts as a bargain these days in that area. But they could likely rent them out for a lot less. 11,000 dorms at 1000 a month is $11 million a month and $132 million a year. Even if the university was paying for the cost of the building themselves, which they are not, they could still get a return over the initial 200 million in less than two years anyway! They could likely rent these out for $500, cover all their maintenance costs and utilities and still manage to make a solid profit each year.

That’s how you solve a housing crisis: you just build lots of apartments. But no matter how bad the housing crisis gets in California, nobody ever seems to consider that. All anybody ever looks at is the downside of an unconventional building design, without stopping to consider the massive opportunity cost of not building all of these places.
I don’t know. I do know that “number of employees” metric is a shorthand way of measuring the operational weight of an organisation. As long as it is measured consistently, it’s a good proxy for size-of-tech-company. It might not work so well when comparing a pharmaceutical manufacturer to a main st retailer though.
Would putting your Gitlab instance behind a VPN mitigate this issue and similar? At least, it would limit attackers to malicious people with VPN access.
Not just politically charged, ideologically charged.

Reference to US declaration of independence leading to US superstate, but no mention of it's role in spreading the concept of individual rights worldwide. Reference to "the Wealth of Nations" in negative context, whereas Emmanuel Kant in positive context and in particular, Malthus with his since-demonstrated-to-be-glaring-absurdity in a positive light, complete with an excuse as to why it is still not invalid.

It's an interesting thing, but it would be better if that sort of personal bias were left out of something attempting to be a canonical summary of the history of humankind.
Huh nice, I like this idea. KVM to access servers, serial port, actual ethernet <3 wow. This is really cool. One thing that would be slightly nicer would be if the KVM and RS232 would both be present at the same time but at least it looks like they include both (unlike toughbooks where you have to shell out for that stuff). I wonder if it's a "real" serial port though, or just a USB-serial converter.

I wonder about the price though because the "Order now" just redirects to the same page.
That you think Tailwind is a "layer of abstraction"—it's not—suggests you don't know what it is and haven't made much of an attempt to find out.

Your idea of CSS is not simple. It's slow, it doesn't scale well, it's difficult to refactor, and it's a higher level of abstraction than Tailwind.

And why is learning CSS mutually exclusive with learning Tailwind? Tailwind is literally just abbreviated CSS properties and some nice tooling.
I was referring to Clojure's immutable data structures, not immutability in general. My nodejs apps are just transformations pipelines of pure functions with postgres being my global mutable state. Clojure doesn't offer me anything here that I can't easily do with JS/node.

Sure Clojure is a better language but not better enough to justify the additional abstraction layer IMO.
True, but we always have some sort of agency over this.

Personally we don't use it in my org, and the mix of on-prem Kubernetes and GKE is just a shitshow.

I recently started learning Nomad, and Nomad (+ Terraform for cloud) is the only thing that makes sense (for our use cases). That said, I think higher management is too highly invested in K8s and they won't backtrack on this.

How much effort is it for a company like Gitlab to add kill switches to certain features and to trigger them incase they are exploited in the wild? Has to be pretty fine-grained though to disable analysis or upload on certain files, right?

What are alternatives to automatic immediate updates and kill switches besides not exposing the service to the internet?
Never said it was. I’m saying that big tech takes punitive actions against users that aren’t related to any of the things you don’t do.

For example on Facebook men are allowed to show nipples on pictures while women are not. For Canada at least, that’s discrimination based on sex / gender. Many big tech moderation policies actively encourage discrimination.

It's great to know your username is currently acceptable to YouTube.

Basically what happens on FB is comments get wildly misconstrued by the mod team / AI, thankfully it appears the mod team or it AI has a limited vocabulary so as long as you use 5 syllable words to describe your thoughts its pretty easy to avoid.

I tend to agree with you that censorship is probably an inexact or overreaching term for what's going on. Of course social media is balancing a number of factors, pleasing their regulators, pleasing their advertisers, pleasing their employees. It feels like the creation of a Digital Singapore in the vein of William Gibson's 1993 article Disneyland with the Death Penalty.

"IT'S LIKE AN entire country run by Jeffrey Katzenberg," the producer had said, "under the motto 'Be happy or I'll kill you.'" We were sitting in an office a block from Rodeo Drive, on large black furniture leased with Japanese venture capital.

Now that I'm actually here, the Disneyland metaphor is proving impossible to shake. For that matter, Rodeo Drive comes frequently to mind, though the local equivalent feels more like 30 or 40 Beverly Centers put end to end.

Was it Laurie Anderson who said that VR would never look real until they learned how to put some dirt in it? Singapore's airport, the Changi Airtropolis, seemed to possess no more resolution than some early VPL world. There was no dirt whatsoever; no muss, no furred fractal edge to things. Outside, the organic, florid as ever in the tropics, had been gardened into brilliant green, and all-too-perfect examples of itself. Only the clouds were feathered with chaos—weird columnar structures towering above the Strait of China.
Yikes, it would have been nice to have a heads-up email from my Gitlab install that a new user had been created on September 3rd :-O

I'd say it is far worse than FFI. To chip vendors this is a totally automated process: the tool that configures and synthesizes the ARM core also generates the C headers and some of the driver implementation HAL, if not the driver implementation as well. Many BSPs, under the hood, are repetitive boilerplate because they can be.

Getting rid of the manual adaptation will be necessary for this to really take off. The faster we can get to RISCV the better, because we can have a FOSS layer that turns core description into source code, or maybe something better.

I used to be far more interested in MCUs than I am now because I realized how much busywork there is.

Yeah, with product lifetimes and development in general being on a much shorter cycle parents should probably have reduced in term to reflect that.
