It's not a matter of being afraid, spaces in filenames are annoying.

I mostly use the shell and navigating in directories with spaces is annoying, you have either to quote it or put a \ before each space. You also have to remember to quote everything, and in bash that can become complex, you start adding quotes everywhere to solve problems caused by spaces (or other special characters like *) in filenames.

So I prefer to not use them, a simple _ is as readable as a space. Only thing is that spaces gets rendered better on graphical file managers, but... that could have been solved (and can still be solved) by simply adding an option to render a _ as a space graphically if there is no ambiguity. I don't care that much since I don't use graphical file managers that much.
I like this idea, but does it work in praxtice?

How do you get the SLBMs? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submarine-launched_ballistic_m...

First-strike only works if you eradicate _all_ of the opponent's nuclear forces. Otherwise, you're left with a few extremely pissed off submarine Admirals / Captains with nuclear-retaliation abilities.

----------

Like, you're skipping a major step here. If you destroy comms and launch a nuclear first strike before the submarines are down, you're screwd.

You're basically saying you have confidence that some adversary can 100% detect all of someone else's submarines simultaneously, across the world, with high confidence. Sure, submarine detection has gotten better, but I'm not even sure if you can pinpoint all of the USA's __carriers__ (and near-carriers, like the Marine's Wasp Assault Ships) right now (let alone the USA's submarines).

--------

I have severe doubts that anyone in the world has enough satellites in the air for 100% ocean coverage. We don't even have enough satellites in the air for 100% ground coverage. The sea is a very large place.

If the technology you allege to exists really does exist, then the MH370 probably would have been found by now. But no: satellites don't fly over 100% of the sea, our computers aren't fast enough to scan everything our eyes-in-the-skys see even if we could scan 100% of the ocean.

Furthermore: Satellites are floating up there in the sky. I'm sure the military is just watching each-other's satellites and knowing when they pass by or not. If a Satellite can see you, you can see the Satellite. If you can see the Satellite, you can tell your Submarines where to hide.
> Rust seems to have this cult-like power.

Rust is to lazy memory allocation as static types are to lazy typing.

A lot of people are content with dynamic typing until they see the other side. These people claim types make you think more. Ultimately, they reduce the maintenance burden and get rid of an entire class of bugs.

The same can be said of GC tuning.

Rust is a game changer, and it certainly doesn't hurt that the tooling and language ergonomics are also the best in class. They hit a home run with all of the bases loaded with this one.

> I don’t think content is automatically low quality with automated SEO. And if it is, it won’t work because users won’t find it helpful. The goal, like all good content, is to help people.

I don't think anyone's suggesting that. After all, most content produced by humans is low quality as well.

Generating good content generally requires someone to be a subject matter expert and to present the issue at hand in sufficient depth. Most content answers questions, but good content answers the right questions.

Looking at your site, I believe the main issue is that so much content is repeated between each individual plant. There's also just not that much content to begin with. A human could have copy-pasted these articles and swapped out the pictures within a few minutes.
Yeah, this is why the term "low code" seems more appriorpiate. We should definitely be describing `=A1+B1` as "code" and we should be calling it the "Excel Programming Langauge". (Especially now with LET and LAMBDA and compound data types making it Turing complete).

(However it's still low code because all the imperative stuff about the GUI and loading/saving files and updating other cells reactively and so-on is written for you by Microsoft.)
>> but also patience and willingness to learn an otherwise useless skill

Origami is certainly not useless! I've been doing it (badly) for 40 years. Some satellites unfurl their solar panels along some very cunningly designed mountain and valley folds. My paper maps get a different set of folds than they are manufactured with and pop open by pulling opposite corners (a sort of pleat).

The point I suppose I really failed to make properly is that forcing people (staff) to do a particular discipline rather than say allowing them to choose what it might be is a form of corporate wankery. By that I mean it looks good on paper (hah!)

Mass car manufacture does involve some nimble fingers still but not quite in the origami way. The boys and girls at say Toyota near Derby (Derbyshire, UK) need incredible situational awareness for safety and good hand eye co-ordination when doing whatever their cell is doing on the line. Cars like the Ariel Atom and the seriously luxury jobs like Rolls and the super cars which are generally built as individual units from start to finish by one team need all the skills. Even then, the paint shop will be another team and so on.

If I ran a car factory, I might be inclined to teach the staff how to work all materials from scratch, not just paper. I'd cover things like taps and dies in metal work - it is quite satisfying getting threads to match. Brazing and simple welding obviously. Sheet handling/bending etc. I'd cover basic concrete (1-2-3 mix for example) and simple reinforcement usage, perhaps some simple admixture usage. Woodworking would be basic joints, how to plan and build say a decking structure.

I'd teach life skills. I'd probably throw in how to fold a crane or frog whilst the conc. is curing. However, I own an IT company and the staff get scared when I get the big tools out 8)
Well, no shit. I was pointing out that they're placing more and more importance on being a services company rather than a hardware/product company. As that emphasis on services grows they'll probably switch to their own silicon for their cloud stuff which their services will run on.
I still have a difficult time understanding how increased homelessness is not a direct result of the number of comedy clubs per capita.

> The other FAAMGs you cannot turn your head without seeing one of their logo (both in your house and when walking down the street).

I see more Tesla logos more than all the companies you mention. Even including Amazon boxes. To see a Tesla logo, you don't even have to turn your head, you are driving behind one or you see it in one of the lanes. Don't even have to get in a car, I see several parked on my street.

Nobody sees a FB logo. You can turn your head 360 degrees, still no logo. Unless you live in Menlo Park area and drive past Facebook office.

Methinks, you live in a 3D world (Metaverse?) unhinged from reality. Or perhaps 3D printed a few of the logos that you keep repeating. Or just making up stuff.
That annoys me every time I use a Windows system. It was a terrible decision, especially since both the command prompt and the new powershell doesn't accept like bash a backspace before a space, you have to quote the whole path! I get that most users on Windows don't use the shell, but as a developer I do a lot, and every time it's a pain (no wonder they added the WSL in Windows after the failure of Powershell...)

Creators will likely see extra revenue if they make some videos patron-only, at different levels. Some creators will likely get too greedy and lose viewers, while others will probably do fine holding a select few back to attract new patrons.

The bonus for users will be (hopefully) fewer in-video sponsorship ads (I know all about squarespace and nord vpn, thanks), and no algorithms sending you content you don't want. Less discoverable of new content, though. I suppose "click like and subscribe" will turn into "become a patron!", so that's a wash. Hopefully there won't be as much self-censorship, too, because they have another revenue stream if a video gets demonetized. Or maybe they will put the controversial ones on Patreon only.

I'll be interested to see how this turns out. If it becomes competitive, I suspect YouTube will ban Patreon links instead of doing the more sane thing of partnering with them.
I'd recommend Debt. It made me rethink a lot of what I "knew" about money and economics.

I worked on a shelter in Seattle for a year. The biggest reason people wouldn’t come in is because they needed to check in at a regular time every day, which is a ridiculous requirement. Other shelters were even more stringent, with no smoking (tobacco) or breathalyzer tests, needing to attend daily prayer, and/or daily social worker check-ins. The shelters are run like the residents are children.

The problem is that the rich people who give money to the shelter have moral stipulations along with their money, since they want to feel like they are “rehabilitating” people with the money they throw st the problem.

If I had to operate under the same requirements as the shelter to keep my apartment, I would be on the streets too.
Apple has shown us that a little integration and UX consideration goes a long way. Just because you could put together two existing technologies doesn't mean you did, or would, and it especially doesn't mean that a nontechnical person could or would.

>Any sufficiently complicated C or Fortran program contains an ad hoc, informally-specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of Common Lisp.

- Greenspun's tenth rule

Joking aside, Java VM can be as fast as C++, not C, by using profiling and JIT optimization if tuned to a specific server and only measuring after running for a while. If you are really thinking about your allocators and not just calling malloc, nothing is faster. Half of this is due to less allocator calls and half is due to laying out the memory in a cache-friendly manner.
> Probably you will want liquified H2.

More likely to use solid adsorbed hydrogen. Room temperature, room pressure, less mass in the tanks.

Adsorption has been experimented with for several decades at least. But modern computer power and modern processes for controlling material surface properties make it more likely than ever before.

IMHO, syntax is the easiest part. Semantics are the tricky part. One very clear example of this is how Svelte and React deal with async stuff.

The Svelte approach follows the handlebar approach of having semantics be represented by DSL constructs - which is a very reasonable approach IMHO.

The Suspense semantics are so far off left field that someone literally wrote a whole framework specifically in response to its complexity[0].

And that complexity permeates every language construct used within a React component. Why can't we call hooks from inside if statements? Aren't if statements just JS? If you have to bring up React's internal implementation to explain, that's no longer "just Javascript", it's also a healthy chunk of very React-specific knowledge that you need to be aware of.

Vue is another example that provides a successful story of a very large algorithmic migration from a reactive system to virtual dom with virtually no disruption to consumers, thanks to the abstraction provided by its DSL. In contrast, try telling my wife (who's learning about class components in her React course) that functional components and hooks "are just JS, what's the big deal", and see how far that takes you :)

I'm using quickjs (rquickjs specifically) to bind GTK's C API to Javascript and adding a light DOM wrapper (get/setAttribute, add/removeEventListener, etc) that covers all the functionality Svelte needs.

Five matching witness testimonies can be both incorrect and credible. To say that they are not believable is, frankly, bizarre to me. The example is bereft of detail so you can obviously make up a situation which matches it and it is not believable but that would ignore the point here.

A simple rephrasing is that you can make credible false allegations.

Per my understanding of SVN, a checkout only downloads the lastest version of all the files ("pristines"). Git on the other hand clones just about everything from the remote repository, giving you a fully-fledged repository locally. SVN operations that need more history like log and blame will communicate with the repository for that info.

> browser incompatibilities are still prevalent

It's true, browser difference are a pain to work with. But what is the alternative, to only support a single browser engine? Note that this has improved a lot in recent years. As long as you don't need to support IE11 or below then you shouldn't come across many issues. You can find browser support using caniuse.com or looking at MDN docs.

> even popular libraries are barely documented and you regularly have to wade through hundreds of wannabe tutorials on Medium/Hackernoon/...

I don't think that incomplete documentation is is exclusive to Javascript by any means. It is quite possible that the standard for packages and articles is lower due to Javascript having a lower entry level. I think we saw a similar thing with PHP.

> one compiler/transpiler, no, there are several...

I personally don't see a problem with this? Usually they have different goals, pros and cons. Do we think that it would be beneficial to not create competing solutions? For example would it be beneficial to only have React and not have Angular, Vue, Svelte? Agreed that multiple solutions can be confusing for new users and generally I would direct new developers to all-in-one solutions so they don't need to deal with these things.

> some things like imports might work in completely different ways

I'm not quite sure what is being referred to here, maybe the difference between commonjs and es imports? I personally haven't encountered any issues but they are completely different. I might be able to point someone in the right direction if they clarify.

Again I understand if you don't like having to deal with these things, but there are reasons for them that can't just be glossed over. Discussions are great! But I find it hard to have them when developers ignore the nuances and insist on approaching them from a negative angle.

I agree with what you've said about integrating technologies and improving the user experience. I'd agree with what you say about this particular instance if it were a) more seamless, and b) more reliable. The flow of writing, photographing, adding headers, adding images, styling: I don't think that's been well thought-through as a user experience. And the requirements for writing so as to ensure a clean result from OCR: get good, heavyweight paper, write large and neat, make sure all the lines line up on the left — it doesn't sound like an experience of "Just write!" Gotta have a good camera too, which a lot of people who prefer to avoid typing may not be inclined to value.
