I think the framing of the article is odd. I'm assuming he was paid a salary as an employee of MECC. That was his pay. He got paid.

If the article is supposing he should have some intellectual property rights since he and two colleagues invented the whole thing... I agree! However, employment contracts still stipulate things like any and all intellectual property created by the employee on company equipment is automatically owned by the company. Some contracts are even more restrictive and give companies ownership over everything their employees create while they're under contract.

God forbid your employees have hobbies they might want to monetize. It's a great way to stifle creativity and progress IMHO.

Although, as a professional software developer, I've found that it makes me value my ability to write software more than the software artifacts I create. Kind of like an artist. Only one person can own your painting or sculpture. Your ability to create art is what puts food on the table.

Yes, a realization I came to awfully belatedly. As a kid, all those speeches and essays where I struggled anxiously with topics I didn’t know much about or care much about, and bullshitting is not one my strengths or preferences. Decades later, I’m rather more aware and more opinionated, but my days of addressing groups of people seem to be long over.
I'm not sure why anyone thought this was a good idea in the first place. I always saw it as a manifestation of Conway's law [0] driven from money printing.

That is, more money -> higher demand for employees -> employees that shouldn't be given authority are -> "I want to code only in <techx that no one uses> -> microservices are the only way I can do this -> microservices are good.

It's neat that so many of these traditions align with neuroscience. My naive expectation would be skepticism of anything that's mysticism adjacent. Many spiritual practices are being laid bare by science, and found to be effective in modulating neurochemistry, or directly manipulating parasympathetic immune responses, or a myriad other effects that can improve a person's well-being.

There are human superpowers, like increasing or decreasing your core temperature, consciously resisting infections, deliberately triggering the placebo effect, feats of memory, endurance, or cognition. Science is making inroads to the mechanics of many of these feats.

Asceticism seems like a clear cut system for improving cognition by letting the baselines of dopaminergic activity settle down. I can see the potential for negative effects of overstimulation, but where there's atrope, there's usually a kernel of truth to be found. Intellectuals and scholars are known to retreat from the world to silence and study for extended periods. Removing external stimulation is about as obvious as it gets when you want to focus on something. However, sensory deprivation- the extreme end of the axis - is known to have extremely negative effects, sometimes within a couple days. There's clearly a minimum threshold of stimulation needed to retain your sanity.

Running studies on cognitive performance through the use of deprivation tanks, silent retreats, minimal stimulation lifestyles, and other methodologies would be interesting. If a once weekly tank session provides as much benefit as daily silent retreats, or a month of living in isolation, or something like that, it would give people reasons to improve their well-being. My own suspicion is that infrequent tank use is probably as beneficial as more rigorous asceticism, but that's just opinion.

With the doors open to psychedelics research, I'd love to see the comparative results from ascetic practice with and without psychedelics over 6 month periods.
The quote from parent was about transmission.
Thanks :) I wanted to add some perspective, but felt some of the details were a little too personal to have it permanently tied to my professional identity. So more of a preference to keep personal separate from business.
It's entirely a matter of preference.

I like Spotify's behavior, because I don't listen to albums, I fill my spacetime with music. I want to press Play once, and not have to micromanage the player. It's actually the reason why I use Spotify. Apple Music plays one song I select, and then falls silent.

This is really cool! For anyone looking to do a similar project, it's worth noting that HackRFs are pretty low-spec SDRs by current standards: a number of more recent models, such as the XRTX-CS, based on the Lime LMS7002M front-end, achieve far greater tuning bandwidth - you wouldn't have to build a cluster of them, and could get the same throughout for a lower price and complexity!
> now that IE11 support is being phased out

Between last year and this year, our IE11 visitors shrank from a few percent (I think it was 5% during the week, under 1 on the weekend…) to under 1, and I got permission to kick IE11 support. Already implemented the first grid and can’t wait to use CSS variables. It’s like I suddenly landed in the future :)
I think the trick would be to increase interest rates (deflationary, mostly for assets) and implement UBI simultaneously (inflationary, mostly for consumables). The increasing cost of debt will sink asset prices, houses most of all, while the UBI cancels out the systemic deflationary forces that result from that. I think the net effect of this would drive investment into more productive and less rent-seeking areas, incentivize a lot more innovation, and also significantly reduce the wealth gap. But that's just me.
I know the answers are yes.

Since we are on the topic of Linux so something exciting was merged for .Net6 that wasn't talked about; the new file interface with support for symbolic links. That sounds a bit absurd but it's been a long standing issue with challenges you wouldn't expect..

Some creators may care because they think the presentation is an essential component of the work they put in -- and that they are not able to communicate what they wanted. Others may take your attitude, that once they've put the creation out into the world they have given up control over it; it is wild. And others my find joy in people interacting with their work in ways they didn't plan or anticipate, wondering what they will find.

We cut the cable cord 10 years ago. We have Netflix. And Prime video because it's bundled. Used to have HBO but let it lapse. And the only thing Hulu was good for (for me) was to feed my guilt-ridden Law & Order SVU/OC addiction.

It's death by a thousand subscriptions if you want to capture all the gated content out there. And even then, you'd still be left wanting if you like non-mainstream or obscure stuff. Streaming services cull their non-original content all the time too, so it can be a frustrating experience chasing down an old movie or TV series that you swear was there several months ago.

That "Hello, old friend" meme pretty much describes our experience with streaming. And Bill Watkins was kinda right but wrong, all that storage is also for movies. :-)
My first software dev job was in the 90's writing PHP for a mom and pop ISP that was trying to get into app development. It was originally supposed to be Perl, the job interview was something like:

Me: demos CRUD app for keeping track of my record collection, hosted on a free site

Owner: You wrote this?

Me: Yeah.

Owner: This is in Perl?

Me: Yeah.

So I got hired. The day I got there, he told me they were going to use PHP instead of Perl. Sure, cool, whatever. He told me that I had to start being productive in the first couple weeks or he would have to let me go, couldn't afford to keep people that weren't working out. I was down with that. He had some HTML pages that he had created in a WYSIWYG editor, I think it was Dreamweaver, and I was going to add some PHP scripting to those pages.

How hard could that be?

So I get to work and open these HTML files and I don't even remember exactly, I think like the login page HTML was 20 pages of code long, maybe I'm exaggerating, I've blocked most of it out of my memory but I seem to remember nested tables inside of nested tables inside of nested tables with spacer GIFs and &nbsp;s all over the place and I remember looking at it and thinking: What. The. Actual. Fuck.

But I did it! I managed to get the guy to take a look at what the editor he was using actually created and get him to simplify some things, I fixed a few bugs and was working on features and he came in around noon and told me you know what I said about being productive in the first few weeks? Forget about that, we're good.

The week before I was doing manual labor in a factory. It was like going from the 1800s to the 2000s over a weekend. I made $9 an hour, less than I was making stacking boxes on pallets, but of course totally worth it in the long run. Good times.
From memory, Safari's behavior is a bit different than Chrome. Safari shows just the domain name regardless of what the subdomakn is, but Chrome shows the URL with www removed. It's a subtle difference, but Safari is more obviously showing something that's not usable to type from a screenshot or whatever.

I sincerely hope you get Google to change their ways, but personally, this coming around again was the motivation I needed to stop using Chrome on Android, and I hope I'm not the only one.

All that said, it's hard to make Google change things, and it's relatively easy to run a static http(s) server that redirects everything to www and maybe serves some HSTS headers. Assuming your traffic is small, you can do this on the smallest vm on any cloud VPS. Or probably on some serverless platform, too.

Edit to add, you can always redirect www to vvvvvv and I think Chrome would show that, and as you noted, Safari likely would too.

Maybe only redirect to v's if the User Agent is Chrome/Safari.
Apple have MusicKit too.
I had an upbringing where I was very much judged. And even in adulthood, my experience is that I like myself fairly well, but I am well aware that other people do not normally take to me, are not capable of grasping what I’m about or seeing any value in it, etc.
How well will you mentally estimate the time it took you to do it? : D
1. Mixpanel is super expensive.

2. Mixpanel is slow as a hell in a real world apps. I'm not joking. You can wait by 15 seconds to load one page.

3. Amplitude is 10 times more flexible and intuitive.

4. Amplitude is free completely. 100 000 000 events included. Mixpanel gives about 5000, maybe a bit more, just for testing purposes.

I'm not saying that Chrome's behaviour is correct, but in my opinion your DNS configuration is not ideal. If you prefer the www subdomain, it's common practice to at least redirect http(s) requests on the root domain to it. People don't expect a root domain not listening to http(s). They may also skip writing the www and assume your website is broken.

Maybe you can find a cheap or free host with a A (and AAAA if you feel like it) that can host a quick http redirection to your www domain.

The "1-line" is referring to the one line doing most/all the hard work in each example. Though I do agree - seems like they wrote the title before the article here.
The text makes it fairly clear that there is one particular line of code that each slightly longer example is showing off. The one line of interest is highlighted at the top of each example.
That's an idea, I'll think about it.

But I don't think it's reasonable we should have to play these mind games with the browser because they have arbitrarily decided "www" is always equivalent to the root domain for everyone.
If you classify Roberts a liberal, then your math makes sense. Roberts might not be as far right as some, but there is no way he could ever be classified as a liberal court member.

I would suggest learning how to do marketing, writing down an excruciatingly detailed process (on Notion), and then automating a part of it while delegating the rest to freelancers.

Though, to delegate as much as possible, you will need a good amount of capital.
Great service, thanks! I'll implement it immediately.

But the fact that someone has implemented a solution doesn't make it okay for Chrome to lie to the user, in my opinion.
You're making a similar misconception. Nobody is saying that either is "all in your head" (imaginary).

Depends on the vehicle. Late '90s, early '00s trucks and SUVs, and still some new ones, all you need is a battery sawzall and you can reach it lying on the ground. Newer vehicles and smaller vehicles it tends to be harder to get at, thief may need a jack which will slow them down and require carrying more stuff around.

A lot of newer vehicles are putting at least the first-stage catalytic converter(s) (for those with two-stage systems) closer to the exhaust manifold, more in the wheel well space like where the oil filter is on Ford light diesels. I'm not sure what all the motivations are for this but it does make it a lot harder to steal as you kind of need to take the wheel off and sometimes more to get access. Of course that might just lead some thieves to take an even more destructive approach but I at least haven't seen it myself.
> you're doing programming wrong. Your program should do other work in the meantime.

It's not always true that there is other work to do in the meantime. In fact in my experience, it seldom is. "you're doing programming wrong" is a very strong statement, and not one that I take seriously in this context.

Typically you "await" the external service response, so that it is not using a thread to do that, and "other work" in the form of starting to deal with other requests can happen in the meantime, thereby increasing service throughput.

But that won't speed up a given request - you can wait for an external service more efficiently, but you can't wait faster.

Services that do not depend on any other http services or any data store do happen, but they are rare in my experience (calculation engines, I suppose). So for almost every service, when thinking about response time, you have to, first and foremost, think about the latency of the data stores or upstream services.

Feels to me like we're starting to hit the brick wall with x86-64. Only way we can squeeze more performance out of these chips to make them physically larger, squeeze the components into tighter space, and suck more and more power and generate more and more heat.

As much as I dislike Apple's overall business practices, they are 100% correct about ARM being the future of high performance, high efficiency computing.

And we need high efficiency in a world that is becoming starved of energy as more and more people get connected every day.
I didn't say that they did? You've ignored the entire content of my comment to engage with an argument I didn't make.
The people that buy the catalytic converters and buy these metals on the secondary market really need to be more highly regulated and inspected. Someone showing up with a van full of catalytic converters needs to get bounced out of every metal scrapyard they show up to.

There have been several posts of an article today that have all had several upvotes, but been flagged and removed with no warning or message as to why, and I have to assume it is because the article in question dared to suggest that maybe, just maybe the woke response to offensive situations is the wrong response and we should instead take a more thoughtful approach. Posts that have a political narrative, or have to do with schooling seem to be allowed, but only if they fit a certain narrative. You don't flag an article on how medical equipment is racist and that's obviously systemic, but you do flag an article on how we shouldn't knee jerk react and be terrible people in offensive situations. It's not because it's an opinion article, those are all over the place, so the only explanation that I can come up with is that it was removed because it was of the wrong opinion.

According to Google Books Ngram Viewer, the first recorded usage of the phrase "for cheap" was noted in 1672, although that could be part of a longer phrase like "for cheap food".

Usage peaked in 1876. I'm willing to bet that at least some of that usage mirrors how the author is using it.

In conclusion, "for cheap" has been the "right way to say things" since before either of us were born.

As a random aside, that reminds me of a joke:

Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He’s not breathing and his eyes are glazed, so his friend calls 911. “My friend is dead! What should I do?” The operator replies, “Calm down, sir. I can help. First make sure he’s dead.” There’s a silence, then a loud bang. Back on the phone, the guy says, “OK, now what?"
The intellect is always going to offer only a vastly over-simplified perspective.

But it's our #1 tool. So popular that we literally cannot imagine not using it 24-7.

And furthermore we invariably call that model of reality, "reality".

The name of the organization is probably based on an essay called "Thinking like a mountain" by Aldo Leopold. Writing in 1949, Leopold is considered to be one of the first ecologists. It's a beautifully poetic and prophetic text.

I happen to be living on a mountain in southern Tuscany. A place where wolf where hunted to the brink of extinction and the deer population is exploding. This essay resonates with me in profound ways.
