International food prices have gone up 25%. Many regions like Sudan or warring regions don't have enough locally-grown food. There are famines going on in FOUR countries at the moment and food growth has generally slowed the past couple years too.

Your suggestion of price controls is like a certain French queen telling her starving population to just eat cake.

It's easy to dismiss what these people are going through because it's far away and out of sight. I don't want to be that person.

3) making really cool shit.
JSX allows for dynamically generating HTML elements that have access to values from JS without any work in binding the two together.

That's pretty convenient.

JSX is valid JS. It is converted down to the same thing as what you describe, function calls to React.createElement(). Which can also be used instead and aliased to a function if you prefer.

Using "HTML" like syntax in JSX then let's React not have to invent it's own base components and let's you think about the "HTML" as HMTL.

You could even alias all the elements to function names

const h1 = (...) => {
React.createElement({...})
}

and then call those functions like so

h1(...)

across your components instead of <h1> ... </h1>.

const MyComponent = () => {
return (
div(
h1(...)
h2(...)
p(...)
items.map(item => li(item))
)
)
}

A "component" is just a JS Object that you can manipulate and pass through wherever you want like anything else.

Given that just this week, QAnon believers showed up in Dealy plaza apparently expecting John F. Kennedy Jr would appear and re-appoint Donald Trump president, I think that assertion might call for a big [citation needed] sign hung from it.
it was literally a pseudo "standard":

Same here, I'm fairly certain that's a thing [1]. Anecdotally, I've started turning off wifi/Bluetooth in the parking lot before entering a big box store like Walmart, and it seems like I get less ads for stuff in the aisle of the store I walked down.

Ironically, this method of tracking is one of the conter-arguments I've heard to the "Facebook is recording my conversations" theory.

I don't know enough about it to understand how this attack is different than in-store phone tracking.

The way CPU usage is measured includes time waiting for memory reads. Only a hyperthreaded core would be able to schedule a different task on such a core. For the M1 Pro, which is not hyperthreaded, if all dispatched instructions are waiting for memory reads, then the retired instruction counter simply does not get incremented for that cycle.
you're allowed whatever your preference. but let's not pretending: you're expressing preference for a system which happens to not inconvenience you but which constraints many folks's choices & desires. i for one think there would be zero real tradeoff permitting others a little of their own preference too.

the bigger view is that this is horrific. it's ghastly. it's a prison of thought/control imposed on most people.
I've spent a few hours today looking at ways to block ads on youtube. I'm sick of ads on my tv and my iphone. Found a few interesting apps but I have no chance of installing them on my iphone.

Meanwhile in Android it seems I can install any .apk I wish by just downloading the .apk file.

I'm selling my iphone and getting an android this black friday. What phone is the most "open" and functional?
Now that gave me a chuckle. I'll defer to the experts then. :)
Love the line: "Russ Parsons, author of “How to Read a French Fry”, says “Not soaking them [beans], really improves the flavor I’ve found.”"

It is not an oral history if you write it down…
There is a chasm of difference between "We've identified something you have not given consideration to" as you describe (which I wholeheartedly support), and "We will insist we're right about the same points over and over again in every post about Firefox for all time" as HN behaves (which I do not, no matter what the topic). The former is a valuable and essential component of public issue reporting; the latter is not.
Oh. So Hasselblad ain't what it used to be?
It is true that tools can be emulated (RedHat doing podman as a docker replacement, with same flags) but it is also work.
I wonder whether in the Cloud world, the fan factor is a sign of credibility in a market that is looking for tooling that works across cloud providers.
Mixed DPI setups are very common. A Retina Mac getting docked to external monitors of different DPI is tremendously common all over the place. Ironically on the Windows side I see tons of non HiDPI laptops that end up docked to higher DPI external monitors, but the other direction isn’t exactly rare either. Even if you don’t use those monitors simultaneously - this is still mixed dpi for all the apps that are currently running.

This does not work smoothly at all in X11. This is a mixed bag with Windows because of reasons that are well documented. The compromise chosen by Apple works reasonably well.

This is not about my personal preferences unlike the GP asserts, it’s based on observing hundreds of deployments in industry and academia - which both Apple and Microsoft are very much aware of - they don’t try to support these features for no reason at all. I personally don’t love the scaling done by Mac OS, and in an ideal world apps would just magically scale geometry and “do the right thing”, but that is a fantasy land and the best FLOSS unix has to offer with X11 does not meet a lot of users needs.

As for nothing wrong with X? Lol this is a display system that still does not have a sane unified way to prevent screen tearing - despite 30 years of shitty attempts.

I highly recommend debian's auto update feature (works on derivatives):

I've never had any problems with it, although I just run a couple of servers :).

If everyone enabled this one thing I'm sure the Internet would be significantly safer.

Obs: You can select security updates only which I believe are unlikely to break anything!

This doesn't apply to people who are mentally ill and/or trolling.

It also requires public debate. This is why segregating people with stupid ideas from people who could correct them is a bad idea.
Did you disable it in the control panel or in settings? IIRC it used to temporarily disable it from control panel but permanently from regular settings.
I am curious, since Intel is relying more and more on P and E cores as well, is there any reference or research available for optimizing multithreaded userland process tasks with varying QoS?

A lot of the pthreads books I see are from the late 90s. Is there a more recent reference? What's the best way to write cross-platform (e.g. not Grand Central Dispatch) multithreaded apps with these new chip architectures?
Already covered those under paranoid. There is nothing wrong with self hosting and being paranoid. But that comes with the responsibility to have someone dedicated to keeping up with the latest news on the software they run. Leaving gitlab unpatched for 6 months shows that the company is not capable of running it themselves and should not be self hosting.
It does work well for smaller focused applications. As soon as you need an escape hatch though to do something it doesn't have an expression for, and you will always find a situation where you do, you run into the barrier between the framework and the native language which becomes clunky and odd.

You end up having to extend the framework in potentially weird ways to get your thing to work.

It's much nicer when your framework just uses the underlying system instead.
These projects are so expensive, but also the most impactful I would argue. This intensity of investigation can solve truly horrendous and well-hidden crimes.
feels like m1 broke a lot of people's brains about performance-per-watt. like, maybe that metric matters if you're running a laptop that has a battery and physically heats up your lap. but nobody with a desktop pc cares about a 100w tdp difference so long as the chips can be cooled
It kind of astounds me that so many people are willing to use a product who's UI so blatently and unapologetically violates it's users consent. I would have immediately run for the hills.
Considering that initial commit contains 400k lines, I would say there is a very long history before git was used.
A fraction for their food is true, but a much larger fraction than people in the US. Furthermore, the 25% worldwide price increases matter more.

An average person in the US spends $2,641 per year on food. If you're a dev making 100k per year, that's less than 3% of your income. Increase that by 25% to $3,301 and it's still just a little over 3%.

https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2016/12/this-map-shows-how-mu...

Some countries spend as much as 50% of their income on food. A 25% increase bumps that up to almost 63% of their income.

Would you consider yourself in trouble if you were spending 60-65K per year on food?

That's still not equivalent because your excess of 30-35K is still enough to buy lots of nice things. If you're making 5K per year, that leaves just 1-2K for everything else you need. Remember, consumer goods aren't really cheaper in these countries.
Unprecedented decisions are made all the time. It's how law moves forward. That's not necessarily a bad thing. Ending slavery was unprecedented. You can make a lot of things so outrageous if you use the right words
This should have been fixed with anti-trust laws, if they would have worked as intended. Apple shouldn't be allowed to use anti-competitive practices like not allowing other stores on their system, or stuff like banning competing browser engines and such. All this has a significant negative effect on progress and competition.

Combined with their sick lock-in mentality especially, Apple's influence on the market and industry is very damaging.

TL;DR: Apple should be blasted with competition laws to reduce the damage they are causing. So I hope all these anti-trust cases against them succeed.
Judging by https://github.com/hashicorp/vagrant/issues/7263, I would say that they are the "GNOME" of devops tooling. The quickstart is great, and you feel empowered when your use cases are supported. Beyond that, good luck.
There is an app on F-Droid called Greentooth that is supposed to shut off Bluetooth after a period of inactivity.

I've found that it is not reliable, and I try to turn it off myself.

I think the "other software" in question here must refer to alternative operating systems, not merely other apps. Though even allowing alternative browsers with their own engines could possibly reduce the monoculture risks associated with that portion of the attack surface.
oof. another x86 bites the dust.
i was looking into vscode/vscodium recently (i'm emacs user, but arguably more comfortable in javascript than emacs lisp). if you want to define a custom function do you have to write your extension? it seems like settings.json, is just that, a json file, as opposed to emacs config where you can drop a line into your config or even just eval some elisp in a buffer and have it modify your editor...

basically it seems less hackable, is that a wrong impression?

(and json files don't allow for comments right?)
Humility == teachability
So not whatever apps you want, but rather whatever operating systems you want? That makes more sense, but I'm skeptical that'd materialize to everything. On android phones with unlocked bootloaders (ie. "allow other software to run on the device if the user so desires"), and the only "other software" that's available are... AOSP forks. There are forks with better mitigations (eg. grapheneos), but they're still by and large, android.
Gotcha. I bet you could throw a script together that would use the package.json to auto generate script tags to inject in an HTML file.

It's not ideal but I don't think it'd be too hard. This would require though a build step which is what you seem to want to avoid.
By running a different OS or firmware on the device allows for a smaller attack surface
Somebody might know better than me but based on everything Ive observed with the crypto bros at my job (and they are always men for some reason) it seems like the outward behavior might literally meet most if not all of the medical criteria for addiction?
I worked at BBB in the mid-90s, before I considered "computers" as a career. The experience really opened my eyes to how "scammy" the world can be. BBB is a for-profit company that, above all else, serves itself.

I remember my first day on the job when I was introduced to the sales team. "Wait. What? 'Sales team'?"
TLDR: Chinese Government.

Chinese Government announced it was investigating Didi for national security, which is usually code for corruption/ scaring management into greater compliance.

Didi was a massively valuable Chinese company Uber owned a significant amount of. When the stock value crashed (-23% this quaarter), it destroyed a significant amount of book-value for uber who owned it.
Not true in classic or Blizzard's modern "Classic."

I haven't seen a lot of evidence as of late that refraining from segregating them is having any positive impact. And some ideas are simply too profoundly foolish to exhaust time debating them. What sort of reasoned debate should we expect to have with people who think a man who died 22 years ago in a plane crash isn't dead?

Vim is at its best reading text files,perhaps moreso than for editing them.

I have to use an IDE or notebook environment a lot now, but when I'm trying to make sense of a folder full of source files I always break out vim.

This is where the mouse-free operation (though modern vim has OK mouse integration) and the close relationship with bash/sh/zsh shine.
which category do crypto apps fall under? <g>
if you think not showing anything until a font loads is acceptable then I guess you and I just have nothing in common!
Those few hours you spent are probably worth at least 2 years of YouTube Premium if you're a SWE. And you'd be supporting creators.
Yes, it’s very awkward to see the Hasselblad (digital) logo on a drone. Of course a medium format sensor would be entirely counter-intuitive in such a use case.

So sad watching the photography industry crumble like so.
I always like tracking whether uber is facing impending doom. The answer is no. They're still fine for a good long while.

Here are the actual income statements: https://investor.uber.com/news-events/news/press-release-det...

Are they profitable? No, but maybe closer than some are thinking, and further than others lol.

If you ignore their 1.8B loss on Other Income which I think is mostly Didi, you've got a few big items left that seem likely to be recurring and "important":

* + 100M gain on taxes (yes, gain as in benefit)

* - 100M loss on interest

* - 200M loss on depreciation

* - 300M loss on stock comp

So if I were to adjust their adjusted number, I would say they're still about 500M in the red for the quarter. In the most generous of takes I'd say they can get 40% gross margin on new revenue. So to make up $500M they'll need to do $1.25B more revenue which is about 26%. So... yeah I guess they could get there.

It’s not clear which iPhone/iOS version you’re using and where you’re looking to block YouTube ads, whether it’s on a browser or in the YouTube app. Magic Lasso is an app that blocks YouTube ads on Safari, but it’s a paid subscription. I use YouTube rarely, and the $30 or so annual subscription for Magic Lasso seems a bit too high for that.
That falls apart if you are maxing the contribution though. A maximum contribution to a Roth IRA is going to be more valuable than a maximum contribution to a Traditional IRA.

Yes, technically with the latter you will have more money left to invest in a separate taxable account, but not being able to defer taxes will drag on the investment return.
Ouch $4,999 is quite the price for the Cine. That’s not a cheap drone. Wonder what they’re going to do with pricepoint for the future releases in the Inspire line.
It is an excellent counterweight against the attitudes that prevail here. Hearing opposing views is a beneficial thing; it sharpens your thinking, if nothing else.
i don't see why we would be so eager or ok with excluding any Apple interested folk in having a platform that works for them.

just stop being intollerant to other options. Apple: stop putting your way of the high way as the only acceptable choice on Apple.

this is a machiavellian demand, to constrain a general purpose computer's internet connectivity so.
At this point IBM is only around because it takes a while to die. IBM's leadership are truly incompetent and I do not expect to see them around in another 10 years. It's a pity that they acquired RedHat, as it will now be driven into the ground like everything else IBM touches.
You missed a third reason: they are trying to cultivate a userbase that is turned away by open debate on some topics.

For example, I'm familiar with a site called Hacker News that will castigate, constrain, and in some cases out and out ban users for political flame war. They don't do this because they're trying to hide a truth... They do this because it's not what that website is for. The site owners and operators seek a particular signal on the site, and political flame war just fuzzes up the signal to noise ratio from their point of view.

Is it authoritarian? Indubitably. But simply because some things are off topic.

To further your auction analogy, Zillow was doing the equivalent of offering Buy it Now prices above asking and owners were selling immediately. They had asymmetrical access to the market because they had asymmetrical capital.

They were literally scalping properties. And, like a scalper who has too much inventory, they’re now selling at a loss.

> - 4% withdrawal rate.

Note: the "Four Percent Rule" that many people go by is not "Take out 4% of your portfolio every year." It is "Take out 4% in the first year, and then adjust by inflation every subsequent year."

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Bengen

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinity_study

So:

* Year 1: Take out 4% of portfolio.

* Year 2: Year 1 amount + inflation of Year 1.

* Year 3: Year 2 amount + inflation of Year 2.

[…]

* Year N: Year (N-1) amount + inflation of Year (N-1).

Though as you age the inflation adjustment tends to be less important as people tend to spend less.

Apple has already made it clear that there is only one user base they are interested in supporting. They've made a huge business out of supporting only the Apple way. It can certainly be frustrating in some cases, but that is the choice you make joining their ecosystem.
