I think that the network effect / ecosystem considerations are the meaningful discriminator here.

MS didn't create and ship IE as a freebie gift to its customers; it did it in order to gain a foothold into the burgeoning Internet service market. Likewise with office products and cloud storage, having all Windows users automatically use .doc files and OneDrive accounts puts them in a dominant position to sell other connected products.

A Windows user who plays solitaire is just playing solitaire. If he would like to play a better third party solitaire instead, the fact that 99.99% of Windows users are playing the default version doesn't affect him in the slightest. But a Netscape-browsing, StarOffice-typing, Nextcloud-uploading Windows user will find himself constantly annoyed in a world where every website is Best Viewed in IE, ships heavily customized Word documents, and shares OneDrive links with each other.

If Solitaire were a MMO, I think Windows giving every user a free basic Solitaire account would not be OK.

> Jetbrains products are free for students, and paid for professional use. In my opinion, the pricing of the product is spot on. My company pays about ~200 euro per seat per year, which is a good price for the quality tooling you get.

well, they're in violation of the licence if thats true.
The 150€/250€ licence is for private people, companies have to pay 500€/650€.

/edit: i guess non of the people that are responding to me can read. he specifically said that the company is paying for that and the price of non-intellij licences don't overlap with 200€ on any tier I can see.

As others have said, you're not going to get a lot of purchases without being able to preview what it does first (maybe build some slightly contrived examples?).

I wish there were just a standardised way for recipes to be presented. If I'm on a desktop or tablet, I want ingredients on the left, method on the right, a picture of how it's supposed to look at the top, perhaps some serving suggestions at the bottom, and maybe a few interstitial pictures/videos in the method if it's something really difficult (I'm happy for these to appear in a modal). On mobile, I want the ingredients at the top and the method beneath it. I never want the life story. Having comments at the bottom is sometimes quite nice but fairly optional. I'd like to be able to toggle units to things that I'm comfortable with (I don't want ounces and cups but it should be possible for people who do).

This shouldn't be too much to ask, it really shouldn't.
Also, it’s easier to understand when you see the relative speeds of traffic and the relative lack of safety.

I feel like Waze has killed the high beams flashing warning, although I miss it. It sounds crazy as a say it out loud, but the signals between drivers always gave me warm feelings of some kind of community with other drivers. Now everyone on the road seems much more internally absorbed or focused. Cars are quieter, podcasts instead of radio, etc. While they were never very common, CB radios were also less rare in cars (we always had one for road trips and both my grandparents had one in on all the time in their cars).
>In much of Europe oncoming cars flash their lights to warn others about dangers and (especially) speed traps or police checks, so they can slow down in time.

It's the same as the Opera Presto leak a few years ago. You cannot legally maintain or update, let alone distribute it. Back then you could find a few minor patches in Russian forums but that's about it. So even if there's people capable and willing to maintain it (which for a browser I think is an order of magnitude more work), there is no easy way to have a collaboration platform that also gives the project enough visibility, so motivation is pretty low.
Memory and PCIE lanes in larger systems can be attached to particular CPUs, or to sub sections of a single CPU (i.e. AMD Threadrippers / Eypcs in particular) where traversing the the inter CPU / CCX links can cause latency or bandwidth issues.

The software will be pinned to CPU cores close to the RAM or PCIE device they are using.

Only really seen it be an issue in crazy large scale systems, or where you have 4 CPUs, but I haven't spent a huge amount of time on microsecond critical workloads.
Licenses are just paper. Country A has very little recourse if Country B decides not to honor the intellectual property laws of Country A. The most that can be done is an embargo/sanction, which may or may not be a worthwhile tradeoff for country B, depending on the IP in question.
It’s not innovation if it’s just catching up to what another platform has been able to do all along.
That is quite shocking to hear honestly. Thanks for the insight.
It's a great source of information so I'm sure they have some interested buyers at the right price.
Hold on, Batsov's article is specifically about Web. Web is a hyperlinked document system accessed through the browser (modern WWW has an app layer on top of that, but it's not the point). IRC, torrents, e-mail, and git are not part of the Web.
Sure, but if the majority of validators are actually run by the project owners it's effectively centralised. And it's easy to maintain this control if you have the majority of coins to stake. It's not Sybil resistant for this reason - all validators could be owned by one person and you would have no way of knowing.

I'm in a similar predicament for a business application.

We've resorted to the "scream test". When there are features that are expensive to maintain that we suspect aren't being used (based on surveys, interviews, and usability tests) then we insert a notification when the feature is used announcing it's pending removal in some subsequent version. The notification includes contact information so if we get a higher-than-expected number of complaints then we may keep the feature.

HN already screams and moans about mobile apps built with PhoneGap/Cordova/Capacitor/Ionic ect. for not being "native" at the same time as promoting PWAs and complaining that apple doesn't support them, ignoring that PhoneGap, Cordova and especially Capacitor give you that functionality (mostly). I think that says more about HN than Apple...
I think what that broad set of data is a poor marker as its opaque in its accuracy and has no ability to drill down further into the data. It is a good starter point - and I do appreciate a counter information to my theory.

1. Those are gross volume but the distribution of visits per location has changed dramatically as a result of the Ikon and Epic passes - ie local demand pressure in certain localities.
2. What is the distribution of one time buyers versus season pass holders?
3. International vs domestic?
4. Over that time period how many people have actually left ski resorts and started to backcountry ski instead (a not insignificant amount) - which is demand that would be unaccounted for.
5. The other challenge with skiing is it is highly weather dependent - so a bad snow year will limit the amount of visits. I imagine if you were to divy up this plot by states - there would be a strong correlation with big snow years in California and large movements in the numbers merely as a function of scale.

All things being equal, you would not sell a _growing_ profitable business for a low multiple to a non-strategic buyer.

You would, perhaps, sell to a PE firm like Tiny when you believe you've exhausted growth.

That, or the traditional 3 D's: death, debt, divorce.
Just to add reasons:

Especially in corporate context this will be the future for compliance reasons. No more developers who accidentally have code on their machine and lose it. Less access tokens on the client machines etc.

Will be an interesting trend of going back to the mainframe ... and will be interesting to see how that will collide with developers who want to have control and chose their tools and setup.
Yeah, the site also freezes my Firefox for 5 seconds, and this is from a gaming PC. Absolutely horrendous...

The question frames a false alternative in 'rigid dogma'. In a generous interpretation, I'd say that this line of reasoning quickly devolves into a chicken and egg scenario.

1) I changed my mind about the facts.

2) I declare that the facts have changed.

3) You must also change your mind or else I'll accuse you of adhering to dogma.

4) My view is now more popular. It is the prevailing dogma. You're against the consensus if you disagree with my "facts".

The word "Facts" does heavy lifting here. Ultimately, facts can't make any assertions, only humans can. At the core of Scientism, there's always a presumptuous attempt to lay claim to objective truth. Science becomes a dogma and belief rather than a method of investigation.

> I assume it is because the government ran a massive ad campaign to get people to not wear them in the beginning.

They said the the same thing in Europe, in order to prevent opportunists from scalping them and the general population from hoarding them, so the healthcare workers would have access to them.

IMHO, intentionally deceiving the population in order to save masks for healthcare workers was a terribly short sighted move which cause more long term damage to the credibility of the governments when they pushed for compulsory mask wearing after the supply caught up. They could have been upfront about it and use every possible legal and gray-area channel to secure mask supplies before they could fall into the hands of opportunists, but instead, they chose to lie about it and treat everyone like dumb kids hoping people would fall for it.

They did the same thing again when Israel announced the protection of the Pfizer vaccine is wailing and a third dose is needed but the EU governments said that's not needed, and then backtracking on that statement a few months later and now making it mandatory.

Do you know the story of the boy who cried wolf? Yeah, this back-and-forth on the efficacy of masks and vaccines is exactly the ammunition Covid-deniers and anti-vaxxers needed and the useless governments just gave it to them on a silver platter.
There are forks, and there are forks. If you take a codebase like Blink, fork it, and commit to maintaining that fork entirely by yourself independent of the upstream then yeah, what the upstream does at that point is kinda irrelevant. If, however, you're still relying on upstream for important patches and you're just rebasing your small changeset on top of that every so often, then there are limits to how far you can diverge from upstream before pulling in those necessary changes becomes impractical.

If I understand correctly, Edge, Opera, Brave, Vivaldi, etc are all running on the later type of Blink "fork".

Does Google still contribute to Webkit? I was under the impression that stopped a long time ago after Blink and Webkit sufficiently diverged.
It also runs on the assumption that the only people on the road are car drivers. But you might get tractors, cyclists, hikers / runners, horse riders etc. Even people just casually out for a walk with their family. And a lot of these types of roads might not have footpaths either.
n has to be bounded much much smaller, and the constant overhead of the algorithm in question much much larger, for any of those approximations to be valid. The approximation works for log n only because it's not uncommon to have constant overheads which dwarf log n for all plausible n (and only works in such cases!) This is very unlikely to be true even for a linear algorithm.

I never get how Archive.org can get away with... everything? Like every single console game is there. Nintendo is very famous to take down ROM sites yet their full library is on Archive.org.

In some aspect Archive.org is better than some private torrent trackers
You could at least make an attempt to consider differences amd whether those differences might matter.

* Adult vs child

* Material (e.g. cotton)

* Quality

* Wash / replacement schedule

* Activities performed

And while you're at it, consider that kids aren't dropping like flies from covid, either. So if you're performing a cost / benefit analysis, the cost to kids wearing masks doesn't need to be very high before it gets higher than whatever benefit the masks offer.

> Obviously markets can price this kind of thing.

The markets have priced this kind of thing. TFA is about the result.

You could argue that the situation described in TFA is contigent or temporary or something like that, and to the extent that everything about any town fits that description, sure, you're right. But it's no help to anyone to say "oh, this situation will be different in 50 years anyway".

You could (and probably would) argue that the problems described in TFA arise from the political control exerted by local voters to limit housing styles and availability, and not "the market". That's certainly true to some extent, but there's no way out of that unless you propose to strip towns of political systems entirely - perhaps some libertarian scenario in which ownership is everything and no political process can prevent an owner from using something unless it causes harm to others, harm defined, of course, by the owner or the owner's political and economic allies. That's a debate I no longer get into.

Science Fiction: A Graphic Novel Adventure
About time. Twitter has been absolutely floundering for years under his control, since he has absolutely no idea why anyone is using the site and has just been throwing random ideas copied from others at the wall to see what sticks (nothing, so far), and cryptocurrency garbage nobody wants.
The chances are that either solution would work.

Generally I find thinks like this are chosen depending on:

1. What other products are in use in your org / team
2. What is the general direction of travel for products in your org/team
3. What is the cost to the org for any licenses / supported versions you want to implement
4. What backhanders / perks / relationships with friends are involved with the management / purchasing team

If you haven't built anything yet, I'd strongly recommend you start building with something you have knowledge of that is commonly and widely adopted in the industry and then refactor as you find you have issues or particular requirements.

I'd argue that having some light clothing to wick away moisture is better than wearing your birthday suit. Additionally having a bit of protection for certain parts is a good idea when you're running through brush and doing things that are likely to do abrasive things to your skin.
I would not give it a fixed term, especially not 50 years.

I'd start with a short copyright, say 1 year, and extend it based on a few criteria:

1) The current copyright holder is known/reachable. If it is unclear who owns something, it should become public domain. This implies a more or less centralized registry, where you have to re-register your copyright claim every year. This can give you, say, 10 years of copyright at max for just sitting on a property doing nothing.

2) The copyrighted work is still being extended, e.g. like Mickey Mouse still gets new episodes today. If this is the case, older content also gets an extension, say up to 30 years. Active characters can get their copyright extended indefinitely this way, as long as the author sees value in creating new works. So Steamboat Willy is free to consume and remix today, but only Disney can produce new Mickey Mouse content. If Disney stops producing Mickey Mouse for e.g. 10 years, all of it drops back to public domain status. An artist doing live performance might be considered extension, while replaying a record would not be extension.

This means only stuff someone cares enough about to track it will get copyright protection. Only authors that do some minimal effort creating copyright get a long term copyright.

There is a perverse incentive here, in that Disney can go very
low effort, e.g. scribble a new Mickey Mouse episode on a napkin and use it to claim an extension. Pseudo-creation if you will. Another company, say Netflix, should be able to sue for this, to get the content in public domain. They might settle by Disney selling the ownership rights to Netflix, as Netflix clearly values it, and will presumably create usefull new content.

I'll admit to being extremely annoyed by web3 (due to javascript massively disempowering users, taking away things we used to be able to do).

But, I don't buy the gemini thing at all. Come on, gopher? That's not at all what the web was about. It's a false flag and the wrong ideal to look towards.

Even if you go back to Bush's "As We May Think", the focus was on making information accessible and editable using automation. There. That's the magic. Let's bring that back instead of a mere aesthetic.
Maybe they should put a product guy as head or a UI/UX expert who can solve the weird threads issues which occur due to the chronological nature of Twitter. Seems like a quick fix to make Twitters appeal more broader.

That's far less information than the first line of clicking the link gives, and would actually cause all kinds of strife if they followed that naming convention.

lisp-BazunaGuanga would quickly learn that "Lisp" has a pretty vocal crowd that think that it either only means "Common Lisp" or a Lisp2, and take quite a decent amount of offense to any Scheme being called a Lisp.

And scheme-BazunaGuanga would have people complaining that the name is misleading, because they were expecting it to be about the Bazuna Scheme, which is a name clash with some esoteric financial strategy, or expected it to be about Guanga Bazuna's algorithm, etc.

On the other hand, as well as a title we have a link, like most aggregators, and the first line you're giving after clicking it is:

> A small and portable Scheme implementation that supports closures, tail calls, first-class continuations, a REPL and AOT and incremental compilers.

I don't need to search anything to know that this is a programming language, implementing a standard, which has a feature list. Even if I had never encountered Scheme before.
