Try creating a Django project using the Cookie Cutter Django:

Select yes when asked if you want "custom_bootstrap_compilation"

That will configure a gulp task runner that is capable of manage your javascript dependencies, bundle your CSS/JS, and minify your HTML, CSS, JS and images. You will still need to install npm etc. as described here. You will also need to become familiar with how to install and update Node packages.

The success of the web argues that the hypermedia approach is a good choice for a large set of systems.

The problem today is that hypermedia development has been stuck in the late-90's/early-00's which, when contrasted with JSON/RPC-based development, is really showing its age, particularly in terms of UX.

https://htmx.org is an attempt to rectify that situation and get hypermedia-style development back in the game as a viable, modern network architecture for more than just content-oriented web sites.

> I've said nothing of the sort. [...] No-one has said you can't have an opinion.

You've told me to "accept it and move on" at least three times, which is an assertion that I shouldn't comment or express my opinion. So yes, you said exactly something of the sort, multiple times. That you're trying to convince me otherwise is some extreme gaslighting.

> I do however have a problem with you aggressively arguing

You're greatly exaggerating any perceived aggression. You try to make it sound like I'm some troll resorting to name-calling, when all I've actually done is provide detailed arguments based on actual experience. You're welcome to interpret them as aggressive or patronizing or whatever you like, but that's entirely subjective, ironically.

If anything, I'd say repeatedly replying to all of my comments and telling me to "move on" is far more aggressive than anything I've said.

> that there's an objective truth

Again, you're pretending that neither standardization nor subject matter experts exist.

> Most of us cannot travel to Japan every time we want to eat sushi, so that's simply not practical.

FFS !

Did I ever say I travelled, or that anyone should travel to Japan every time ?

No.

Incase you had not seen, Japanese cuisine goes beyond sushi and sashimi.

The quality of sushi and sahimi in the West is simply so poor compared to Japan I won't waste my money. That is what I am saying.

I simply said I do not eat sushi and sashimi. I can fill my Japanese desires with other culinary aspects and save myself for as and when I might visit Japan.
This has been my experience as well. At a prior job, we experimented with deferring reporting/tracking functions until the browser was idle, and then firing the remaining tracking events on unload and found that a non-trivial number of events were just dropped (I believe due to this issue).
omg this is wonderful.

Did you make it? I wish it had a sprite to indicate when it's processing; I keep thinking it's frozen (and usually getting pleasantly surprised thereafter, but I restarted a couple times before that happened, if indeed it was going to).
That's a nice way of thinking. My mind eventually think of different things that will create different impact in our world.
On Windows, .dll files are automatically searched in quite a few places, including current directory, directory where .exe was launched from, and PATH environment variable. Meaning it is far easier for apps to ship private libraries.

Plus, when linux apps try to ship private libraries, as official chrome packages do, that gets quite some backlash from distro maintainers.
`fd` seems pretty useful, but I tend to just `find . -name '*whatevs*'`. It's a bit longer, but one less tool to make sure you have available (and find is everywhere), and one less tool to learn. Even just `find . | grep whatevs` is fine.

You've been eating the wrong American chocolate. Hershey's isn't the end all and be all. There are plenty of good chocolate makers and even more good chocolatiers in the US, you just need to explore a bit. L.A. Burdick in New Hampshire, for example, makes really great chocolates, and has a nice wide range of single source bars made with beans from plantations all over the world.
I used to follow he Xbox 360 hacking scene and the number of things these guys did would blow your mind away. Most notable when Microsoft increased the size of their games from the standard 7.5gb to something like 8gb. There were no 8gb DVD’s on market where you could burn the games. Initially hackers truncated the games and it worked for a bit with unnecessary buffer data removed but Microsoft got wise to this and found out how to detect it and banned a bunch of people using truncated games. What happened next was amazing. Hackers found a way to flash the DVD burner drive of certain models to actually burn 8gb on. 7.5gb disc! The outside edge of the disc is actually not entirely used the disc writing software would leave it alone I believe reason being it is inconsistent in quality at the very edge and you may get a bad write if you use it. Well hackers didn’t care if you may get a bad write you may also get a good one. They hacked certain DVD drives I believe the one I ended up buying was a lite-on drive with certain firmware. I then flashed its firmware and was now able to write on the outer edge of the disc doing the previously impossible. That is only one scene form the Xbox hacking days I fondly remember. Genius if you ask me.
The top-rated comment on this FT article [0] spells it out really quite clearly.

English regions used to receive funds of £1 billion a year from the EU regeneration fund for poor regions with the final year om 2018 the final figure being £1.12bn of the £8.4 billion total over the seven year period.

For 2018, this worked out to be Midlands (£190m), Yorkshire (£143m), Cornwall (£95m), the north west (£88m) and the north east (£80m).

Now this figure of £1.12bn (£8.4 billion over the seven year budget) has been cut to £220m for 2021-22 and £3.6bn in total for the same period.

> a good IDE will provide type-checking and even data-source checking to raw SQL anyways

I've never in my life heard of this, which IDE are you talking about? I'd love to use something like that! I'm in C# land where I can use Management Studio to write queries which works well enough, but going between that and Visual Studio does have some friction.

Even though we use Entity Framework here, I mostly use it to manage migrations than to work with data. Most of the time unless a query is really trivial, I'll just write some SQL and use Dapper for object mapping, I find it a lot easier once the query gets to be over three or four lines or so.
The US can always elect to subsidize fracking and oil sand mining, should it feel a need for mid-term capacity expansion. And in any case, everyone and their dog is looking to reduce their dependence on oil as far as possible as investors demand action on climate change.

The Economics of Pumpkin Patches
No wonder the US dollar is about to hyperinflate. They're printing it like crazy and handing it out to speculative projects whose clients' revenues are also all denominated in worthless USD.

USD has become a liability for the world. The only reason China doesn't dump all their USD reserves is because they know the global economy will pop instantly because there's no real value behind it to support such big, unfairly distributed numbers in the pockets of so many unproductive people. The world is simply afraid of what comes next but they will have to face it regardless because time is running out and citizens of the world are tired of propping up this fiat pyramid scheme.
Consider the following: The majority of professionals in ANY field are mediocre at best, given the distribution of talent. Most developers aren't 10x folks. Most professional athletes aren't superstars. Most recruiters aren't insightful, matchmaking geniuses. In most cases, the market seems to work.

In the case of developers, truly elite talent is not compensated anywhere near 10x (or 100x) the standard-issue rate (unless they become founders). Thus, there is a massive incentive to cast a wide net, and hope to land a big fish for whom circumstances have misaligned.

For prospective employees, the best jobs are typically those one obtains through a network rather than a recruiter anyway - leading to a reluctance to engage, thus requiring a wider net.

Bottom-line, a few elite recruiters can and do behave differently. A few elite developers can and do earn more, and for the rest of us mere mortals, this paradigm is probably the equilibrium. Curious if automating responses to automated emails would lead to ever larger/wider outreach?

Tailwind CSS from an iOS Developer's Perspective
I personally don't feel the need to "keep up" with anything. That may reduce the number of things I can share with strangers I meet, but not that much. When I have a few friends that talk about the same thing for a long time, I tend to take the time to see/read it. Usually I have a good time, and I can talk to them about something that they like a lot. But this is a few movies a year at most.

Someone else quoted something from Seneca against reading too many book: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29317420. I feel like the deeper I go into something, the more I get from it. Going deeper could be seeing/reading the thing multiple times, talking about it with friends, researching it. It transforms what can be a passive consumption into an active one. I see a lot of videos, explanations or memes that are based on taking way too seriously something. While this is often used as a joke, I feel like there is value in that. I think everything can be used as a lens through which you can perceive the world, if you spend enough time with it.
Hence my question "Is this one of those US market researches where US == world?", like WWE and such.
Improve our lives according to whom? You? Have you cut your consumption by 50% this year? Have you installed solar (if you own a house)? Have you started growing your own vegetables? Have you bought a house that is 50% smaller to reduce heating/cooling needs? Do you want someone telling you that you have to do all these things and more?

The existence of so-called gifted persons such as yourself does present some difficulty to the blank slate crowd. Sadly, they appear to have settled on reducing or eliminating testing as well as tracking into gifted programs as a way to cut that gordian knot. Their alternative is more subjective measures, where I imagine at least some of your teachers would have been inclined to grade you poorly despite your grasp of the material.

It’s disappointing, but also amusing. When I was in high school Harrison Bergeron was assigned reading. And it’s a great loss too, but one that most people won’t even notice.

If reducing duplication is a goal, static linking or shipping private copies of libraries works against that. Building against standardised runtimes works much better in that respect.
Have you ever been sent countless fake jobs and when you agree to take a call from fake job sending recruiter he purposely wastes 15 minutes of your time asking you about your previous position, who was your line manager, what was your line managers phone number (they're old friends blah blah blah)? If you haven't, then you wont' understand why they are so detested.

The above is something they regularly do to try and fish for corporate clients at the expense of job seekers.
Hello Lee, congrats and thanks for taking questions.

In advance I'll apologize for being this direct, answers can get fishy sometimes these days, so I will parameterize my query, so to speak:

What portion (concrete numbers) are at minimum being earmarked for supporting open source projects and devs directly? I don't mean t-shirt budget and things, I mean what is the total amount of funds that will be donated directly to open source projects and devs?
US oil supply dropped precipitously thanks to Covid and the Biden administration's drilling bans on federal lands, offshore drilling restrictions, cancelling oil pipelines and other blockades.

Many folks went bankrupt and US turned from a net Oil exporter to an Oil importer. The Biden administration recently started to reverse their policies in the last few months as oil prices surged. (There was also a court case loss on the federal drilling auction ban)

OPEC merrily took advantage of the state of affairs since high oil prices are good for them. Unfortunately, it will take some time for domestic supply to climb again. To tide over the state of affairs, it makes sense to open the strategic reserve. The Trump administration added 77 million barrels to the strategic reserve when the US was having an oil glut anyways, so its not as if the US doesn't have a safe buffer.
It's the reason why it took over a decade [1]. Also why some Scala 2 features were removed, they couldn't prove soundness. Haven't seen anything regarding generics there though.

This is also my understanding. Based on Dependent-Object Types calculus.

Scala 3 is one of the best-designed languages I've ever used.

I came into learning it without Scala 2 experience, and not a big fan of hardcore FP (a-la Haskell), and it's intuitive to write as you would Python or Typescript if you choose to.
I would have thought that this was called Goodheart's Law, and if so, a perfect current example of it is the obsession by numerous policymakers, health officials and many members of the public with justifying so many different authoritarian and in some cases paranoid measures for the sake of stopping the spread of COVID (an impossible task at this point). Regardless of it being non-lethal or only mildly harmful to the vaccinated, the fixation has in some cases gone towards a blind need to try to "stop the spread", and an obsession with case numbers without consideration for whether they cause actual harm and mortality in largely vaccinated populations.

We should be launching a new JWST every year. And we could, for a tiny fraction of the cost of a single large DOD project. Hopefully Starship will make these once-in-a-generation level missions more commonplace, so we're not losing our minds over every tiny thing that can go wrong with this thing.
I would suggest a deeper scan of the site for copy editing - there’s at least one mention of “diary” when “dairy” is clearly intended.

(I’d probably wait for more usage and supporting evidence before trying something like this, but the prospect of no-regrets dairy consumption is very appealing.)
Does anyone know how much of the price tag for JWST is manufacturing, as opposed to research/design/development costs? I would expect the actual manufacturing is a very small fraction, so I don't understand why they haven't built two of them - would seem to be good insurance for just this sort of mishap. And if you do find a problem when the first one is commissioned at the inaccessible L2 point, you at least have some chance to correct it on the second one. Best case is you get two for nearly the price of one.
> In all seriousness, I grew up in a household where the car was always on E, rising gas prices were sometimes the difference between eating or not eating.

The solution for that is not to artificially subsidize gas consumption (which has its host of side effects on a geopolitical scale, from CO2 targets to dependencies on dictatorships), but to raise minimum wages and tax the rich to fund social security systems worth their name and actually usable public transport.
And then you want to run it on Alpine which isn't even compiled with glib and everything falls apart.

I think I know what you want to say (please correct me if I'm wrong); you can always provide more formats or reduce dependencies and go deeper.

But to me there's no reason to do that. Some infrastructure is always required, even if you just reduce it to the kernel. Demanding that a piece of software be installable without any (p)requirements whatsoever seems not something that is demanded from anything besides Flatpak (or Snap). So to complain that Flatpaks require a specific service is not a valid complaint.

Given how common Flatpak nowadays is - almost all distros support it out of the box - I would even say that this complaint is not even valid with regards to Flatpaks.
You are replying to a comment explaining to you why Flatpak actually works with a dismissive sentence implying it's just a bad technology. Do you have anything substantive justifying your opinion?

From what I have seen, most of the opposition to Flatpak comes from the same place that the one to systemd: fear of change. Despite being centered around technology, a very vocal part of the Linux community seems to be extremely conservative.

It's taken me a moment to think things through, but they only need to be precise enough to get back to the relevant user and not the one 90 degrees round the table.

The precision that's important is the projector. You project the top left 'pixel' to the top left of the board, it retro reflects back in your general direction from the top left of the board. Same for bottom right and all the other pixels.

I presume the better the retro-reflectivity the more efficient the system is (because less light is wasted going to places that aren't your eye), but it only needs to be 90 degree ish good enough for selectivity
> The Paxlovid trial was run by the best scientists Pfizer’s money can buy

Well, buying scientists is exactly the problem at hand with Pfizer et al.

You aren't necessarily wrong, but IMHO maybe too pessimistic. I don't see a global conflict starting anytime soon due to MAD. Baring another Trump-like person with zero regard for international norms, relations and basically anything, most world leaders at the highest level aren't complete idiots and understand the risks involved.

There are and will still be many localised conflicts, even some which might impact lots of people ( e.g. if the US does end up attacking Iran, it will be a bloodbath with consequences through Europe, Asia and Africa at the very least). Ukraine-Russia, and everyone around ( Belarus, Baltics, Poland) will probably turn out to be an even nastier affair. Israel's apartheid will probably also result in another war.

But a global war is highly unlikely, at least until climate change and other ongoing environmental disasters wipe out too much resources and people ( e.g. poor communities relying on fishing for sustenance being decimated by dropping fish populations and/or deforestation draining major rivers and lakes).

It's a fascinating thing to watch the new superpower, China, laugh at the world as they build new coal power plants as fast as they can, and import coal at record levels, while the US and the West broadly commit energy suicide.

If the climate predictions are correct, China's explosion of emissions output will get a large share of humanity killed. But oh, we better make buildings in the US 2% more energy effecient, build back green! You know, because global climate change is local, not global, or something, uhm, yeah, because it's like sciences and stuffs, and don't worry about what China is doing because that's over there and we only have to worry about our greenness to save the country and the world.

It's all bullshit. Just wait until you see the populist reaction that's coming up next. It's going to light Europe on fire, and possibly the US.
It isn't how you would do it if you were bulk loading a bunch of pre determined data, but if it were a bunch of random business transactions in an OLTP scenario that is pretty much how it would happen.
