Incorrect. The benchmark is fine. Your so-called "fundamental" flaws are just superficial things, such as using a different time measure, using a different benchmark library, passing in a thread pool, and so on. These are immaterial for relative comparison, unless proven otherwise.

I have repeated asked you to send the code that does things properly in your mind, and you refused to do so.

So you are just trolling. Please stop hinder the progress of the industry through pointless trolling. Makes some positive contributions instead, and I have pointed out repeatedly how to make a positive contribution in this case. Please do.

You are a university student, I am a seasoned computer scientist, past researcher and professor, I am busying running a startup. This will be the last time I will say this to you: please consider contributing something positive to the world.
Leaders of large organizations need someone outside the organization to blame when things go wrong. You cannot do that with Libre Office.
I feel like if you are in construction, the daily physical exhaustion and low pay must be crushing but at the end of the job you have built something that is physical and permanent, you have made a mark on the world. In software you have not really made anything, its just a url in a browser. There is nothing tangible you can look back on as you get older and point out to your kids, its just meaningless pixels. There are exceptions of course, people who built the internet changed the world in almost every way. Our crisis is existential.
I was imagining that this story would be about literal bridges. But it is still interesting.
I think most people make stupid mistakes in job interviews and thus interview below their level. If you fix that you practically interview way above your level.

I bought the course this guy was selling 15 years ago

https://job-interview-answers.com/

which changed my viewpoint. Also I am good at leetcode questions and highly educated and experienced. Even when I don't know the answer I manage to salvage the situation anyway (They asked me what "regularization" was in a data science interview, I had no idea, they told me, and then I told them all the ways I had done regularization.)

I say "there is no question in a data science interview that can't be answered by (1) look it up in the hashtable or (2) look it up in the literature." I can make that work for me, but I am not sure how to make it work for you.

Now if I could only pick up girls as well as I do job interviews...
> services that require identity

Suppose I have my personal QWAC installed in my browser. Does this mean that I won't be able to visit $BIGSITE without authenticating and logging-in?

That wouldn't make things more efficient - it would create friction, because I'd have to switch browsers if I wanted to visit a site that I didn't want to authenticate to; or do some settings fandango to disable QWAC before clicking a link.
So dope! Been watching Tomas and Merrill work on this for the past few months, and now watching it spread through my dev team like wildfire.

Congrats Graphite team!!
So you can either go to an island (few hour trip) or to the north (many hours) And then once there another half day to get down to the interior, which when the roads were open was just a 4-5hr trip.

So even the ferry ride out would take very long time to get to the next major city.
I'll have to check that out. Especially if it can be tinkered with via a custom rom like lineage.
All my commercial activities relevant to that open-source project i have done via handshakes, no interviews
I work for a large PDF processing company (not Adobe) and true digital signatures are a bit more complex than that. Docusign actually uses our technology in their signing flow and it is a bit more complex than what you are describing.

A true digital signature ensures that the document is not altered after the document is signed. This is done by creating a hash of the document, encrypting it using a private key provided by a signing authority, and embedding that in a certificate that is then attached to the document.

When opening the signed document (in Adobe reader for example), the hash in the certificate is validated using a public key provided by the signing authority. If the document hash matches the certificate hash, then the document has not been altered!
Never heard that term before. Not sure I understand the point though. After you supersaturate and then form crystals, the mother liquor is just the left over content that didn't make it into the crystals. What is the purpose of using those remnants?
I think they're referring to this document, which details Covid rates by vaccinated/non-vaccinated status:

https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/...

According to this document, in terms of absolute numbers there are indeed more vaccinated being admitted to hospitals in many age groups than unvaccinated. But of course in terms of overall population, you're much more likely to end up in hospital if you're unvaccinated.
I can work with or without Tailwind to be honest, I was commenting on the principles that are making Tailwind popular.

> The alternative is jumping from your IDE to Tailwind docs unless you are a tailwind expert no

No, as the class names directly map to CSS key/values and the IDE auto-completes the classes. If you know vanilla CSS, you would pick up the Tailwind classes quite quickly.

> "CSS should interact with a component's private structure only"

> "that is a drawback only to Tailwind"

CSS specificity/cascading is part of vanilla CSS.

And what happens to deeply nested components? Are you are using your build step to prevent CSS cascading, giving each of your component classes a UUID?

Instead of using the Chrome dev tools, I am currently using live reload to refresh the page after any HTML/CSS changes.

When you edit your HTML + CSS in the dev tools for fast feedback, are these edits written back to your CSS source files (I assume this is not possible, as they are part of the build process)?

What's your CSS build set up?
Journalists aren't required to be totally accurate either. Most journalism is opinion, especially these days. Sometimes also informed opinion backed by experience, often not even that.

I'm just not seeing this distinction you claim exists.
Yes thank you. This was the point I was trying to make.
Id recommend Debian. After many years (2005-2011) of searching, I like it best. It is the most likely to just work.

If you’re very adventurous and have a lot of free time to explore, install Arch. Its documentation is excellent.

>intercepting traffic or spoofing a site can copy/tamper/replace the QR code

Will this be a problem with HTTPS?

When you open a page, a request will be made to my server to generate a unique login attempt, the id of this unique login attempt will be shown in the QR code.
When you scan it and enter your phone's pin, my authenticator generates a signature of the login attempt id, your username on that website and the current time. My server verifies the signature and logs you in if everything is ok.

Have you logged in to the Discord/Reddit/Whatsapp websites by scanning the QR code shown there from their mobile app? My concept is the same but using my authenticator app, websites which do not have a native app can also offer a QR code login.
Bye, Netflix.
If someone has physical access to your iPhone, it's game over. The US government holds your decryption keys, and there are third-parties that sell exploit kits that are a lot cheaper than spoofing some encrypted I2C interface (see: Greykey).
How odd… seem to have all the facts at your disposal, yet use them to support the argument of the person you are adamant that you disagree with. Not a combo I've seen.

MS did destroy whole swaths of the industry that threatened it—on purpose. A lot of the initiatives failed later, but I'm sure they cried all the way to the bank and their record-breaking yachts.

That a lot of their competitors stumbled on their own was simple fate. Every company stumbles once in a while. Unlike MS which was bolstered by monopoly, a single significant mistake meant the end of most competitors. MS on the other hand was heavily insured with a river of money after the IBM deal.
Ah, I see. Thanks for the detailed explanation.
People are checking FM because it's trivial. I have yet to hear of someone getting caught using digital encryption entirely through band monitoring (ie not doing something obviously stupid elsewhere like bragging about it on social media)
Except we are starting the winter season here, which will cause serious havoc with rebuild efforts.
Point taken that I and Impossible do not speak for the vegan movement. I think I could prove my point with a theoretical bet, however. Ask X amount of people from the overall general population to name the top 3 vegan brands, and I would take the wager that Impossible is in that top 3. Therefore they would be significantly identified with veganism at large.
OP > "Call me when they invent something new. Call me when they come up with some incredible idea that we haven’t had and they built some technology that we haven’t had. Because so far it’s all imitative."

Here's something I've been following that the U.S. seems to be lagging behind on relative to China:

https://www.pv-magazine.com/2018/04/14/the-weekend-read-chin...

> "One key to LONGI’s success in the ingot and wafer space may be its equipment, which is supplied by a company for whom LONGi is the sole client. “The core technology is in the hands of equipment suppliers,” notes Dr. Tian Xie, the director of quality management at LONGi."

I've not seen any examples of similar-scale monocrystalline production systems in the USA. The basis of their large-scale monocrystalline tech is the Czochralski method, c. 1915. Is this imitative? Sure. All technological development is, everything builds on what came before, and that's true for the USA as well.

As far as IP, my impression of China's tech sector is that they generally view ideas to be cheap, and the real challenge is seen as implementing those ideas efficiently. IP doesn't really matter so much (I have heard this called the Shenzhen model) and is regularly traded between companies with few restrictions.

Historically such conflicts are not new; if you look into the German-British trade conflicts c.1900 over organic chemistry technology, dye patents and dye manufacturing, let alone later ammonia technology, it's very similar. In that case, Germany held the IP, Britain wanted it, so they did things like requiring German companies to build factories in Britain, and Germany would comply but with outdated tech, etc.

This is more or less what China has done with the US playing the role of Germany, only not so strategically clever. It was a deliberate play: if you want access to large Chinese markets and cheap Chinese labor, well, fine. We'll learn everything you know since you'll have to build factories here. Acting all surprised about the outcome - what did anyone expect to happen?
I'll never understand using "cheap" for a company name, especially when people who require signatures are usually in very professional environments.

- They're positioning themselves to always compete on price, not offerings.

- It's professionally embarrassing to use a product named "cheap" anything. I have so much trouble recommending namecheap.com to my clients because of this. They're reliable and budget friendly but the word cheap makes them worry about trusting their domain name to them.

- "Cheap" refers to price but it can also refer to quality.

- I'd be surprised if lawyers weren't their #1 market and I can't imagine they'd be comfortable sending their clients to a "cheap" product.

I'm sure they did market research to make it worth using the name. I'd love to hear their take on it.

Who knows, maybe this domain name is only for the initial marketing rollout and the actual product will use a more professional domain name.

And isn't the company that holds the trademark legally obligated to defend it? My understanding is that if you aren't actively making sure that your trademark is not infringed upon, it bolsters the case that the trademark has been abandoned.

So it's not like the trademark holder is looking for a fight. The law essentially forces their hand.
And they can't even get those right, between Skype and Teams it would be hard to pick the bigger failure.

What are you going to do with that IP address? I don't know what IP I had 5 years ago when I signed some documents, or whether I signed it from home. What does that IP address prove?

Furthermore, likely your email provider does know what IP address you connected from.

I disagree and don’t think of cheap as being bad. If used honestly, I think it’s a good way of using accurate language to describe a brand.

Sometimes a cheap burger or a cheap taco is the best. For signatures, I think this works. I don’t think I would skimp on important, non-commodity things.

I think it’s funny and off putting when brands try to overestimate their importance. I don’t want a “signature experience” just like I don’t want to “invest” in a $5 domain name. Just be honest instead of pretending like everything is part of my identity.

Also, the bridge system in matrix is solid. Most people do not want to ban all other messengers, but they want all their communication in one place. Matrix-based messengers like Element or Bleeper seem like the way to go. And if people then start using matrix based chatrooms, all the better.

But I doubt you can reach critical mass with a system that is not open to other chat systems, even if those are closed.
Just ignore all their change-the-world marketing hogwash. The fake meats and cheeses are still occasionally useful, just because they're convenient and somewhat tasty, even if they don't taste like the real deal.

"Edible food-like substances" (to steal a term from Michael Pollan) have their place in a society all too obsessed with convenience and time efficiency. I don't think they should ever be a replacement for whole foods and basic staples, but they are a nice and easy way to add flavor to an otherwise bland vegan meal.

Yes, whole foods are healthier, and you can make a nutritionally balanced, delicious vegan meal out of basic grains and legumes and greens and whatnot... but it's a hell lot of work, especially because most of that stuff tastes like nothing.

For omnivores, adding meat to just about anything helps a lot with flavor, between the meat itself and the juices/fats flowing from it. But adding tofu or beans doesn't really add much flavor beyond a little bit of umami. You really have to season or sauce the hell out of every meal to make it taste good. And after a while, everything tastes kinda same-y... more nutritional yeast, more soy sauce, more curry, some generic beige protein, blah blah.

As someone who went vegan starting with whole foods yet never becoming a good enough cook, the fake stuff is in fact a really nice way to change up otherwise boring meals after a few years.

They're still made of grains and legumes and such, but the seasoning is done by Someone Else™ who's much better at it. Yeah, it's less healthy, but...
price & convenience. It's really that simple.

I can't speak on behalf of anyone but myself, but when that goal is less e-waste, their goal sure does align with mine, even if it may take me 20 extra minutes to charge my devices when something better than type C comes around.

If I can charge my laptop with it, it's surely good enough for charging devices with a much smaller battery at least for the next decade or so.
I would never ever use this.

I use DocuSign because I trust them to continue to be around. Why? Because Important Conpanies(tm) also use them.

$2 is absolutely irrelevant in the context of signing a document that is even remotely related to a financial outcome.

You can break down a big feature into smaller bits of code, but what's the point of releasing a some new code that's not being called by anything yet, when you might change it as you converge on the final solution?

What's the point of a PR that's just an HTTP handler + adapter that's not exposed via an endpoint yet, and might change once we implement related the domain layer methods? What kind of context will a reviewer have on whether this is a decent handler + adapter when there is no other context about which methods the handler will call and what data will be returned?

If we release the domain layer first, we may want to adjust the domain data model in order to better serve the application layer, or work better with the infrastructure/datastore layer.

And so on.

IMO the PRs need to be big enough to encompass an atomic, complete unit of functionality or else it's basically impossible to tell if the approach and code is any good.

"It doesn't break anything" is not good enough, you can still create tech debt by releasing code that may need to be changed to complete the feature. Or someone will just implement the rest of the feature in a worse way in order to integrate with the non-ideal code that you already released when you didn't have a good enough view of the final solution
DocuSign does not give you an eIDAS-compliant certificate, so what makes it any more legal than any scribble I can do myself?

Correct, but the very beginning of the original article proposes running JSON through JSMin to support comments. So in this context, a "compiler" is being proposed (or transpiler to more modern). My comment isn't clear.
I would agree that parents are not friends. It sounds harsh on the surface, but it just denotes that parenthood is a very separate category of relationship. You can't be a responsible parent if you treat your kids exactly like e.g. your adult friends or your neighbor's kids.
T-Mobile has stores all over and they can help you cancel in person (I did this in the US, and it's very common to change carriers). I suspect you can also cancel online. You can also pay with credit card, and in extreme cases you can have your credit card company decline/block charges (I had to do this when Hertz tried to defraud me out of hundreds of dollars). I also suspect banks will happily decline/block charges as well, but I'm less sure since I route most of my transactions through my credit card--at the very least it's quite a lot easier to close a bank account in the US.

On the other hand, when I was in France just to open a cell phone account, I had to bring visa paperwork, proof of residence, and a bank account (no cell phone option) and it took 24 hours to open the account (compared with ~15 minutes + a credit card in the US).

I'm sure there are lots of things that are more difficult in the US, but France excels at bureaucracy in my experience. I should also note that I love France in general and its investment in nuclear power in particular. (:
I'm a bit ignorant of smart contracts and I'm not a lawyer, but presumably the service provider would have to take whatever action would invalidate the subscription.

It gets weird with escrow though, because it's possible the law could treat money in escrow (like in a contract account) as already prepaid- if you wrote a contract to be paid every month for 12 months provided that a given key to a service stated valid and funded the escrow for the 12 months, it's possible the court would rule that you bought 12 months of a product, not a subscription.

I'm not aware if this has been litigated.

The Cloudflare stuff is the first "serverless" platform I've considered using. I develop independently and the value proposition is too good to ignore. They scale to $0 on idle deployments, I don't have to maintain any infrastructure, I don't need CI systems for building and deployment, I get preview URLs, I can layer in Cloudflare Access, etc..
