I use a 4K 27" screen at a distance where it uses the same scaling as a 1440p 14" laptop. Looks great to me, but if your vision is better or you're using it closer then it may not be enough. Other people use 4K TVs or 65" screens to be able to set them farther and keep their vision more rested for the same angular resolution. Resolution requirements depend massively on how you setup your workspace and the quality of your vision. There are plenty of people that use software scaling for 1080p 14" laptop screens as they consider normal sizes too small for example. The range of configurations is very high and you're on one extreme of that range. There's nothing wrong with that but that's probably why you're frustrated with the lack of options on the market. For most people even 4K 27" is already overkill and 1080p external screens sell well instead.
First of all, setup is much easier. If something breaks, I can easily fix it. If I need a new language to be supported, it's usually a click then a 10 second install, and it usually suggests it for me (instead of having to search around).

It starts faster, everything works together better, no weird plugin-compatibility issues (mostly). If I need to find a command, it's easier to lookup in VSCode than Spacemacs (because the menus use a much better GUI, with fonts, highlights, etc).

If I want to switch between files, open a folder as a project, etc, it all works well, and out of the box. With Spacemacs, there isn't a good file-tree pane that I can put on the left - IIRC it comes with something like NERDTree from vim, but it never worked well for me. Partially this is the whole fonts/gui/etc limitations, partly it's because a lot of the shortcuts just don't work that well. Just quickly opening up a folder, seeing what files there are, and being able to rename a file by right-clicking on it and hitting rename is something that I don't do often, but happens once a week, and in Spacemacs, that once a week necessitated either looking it up, or fixing something.

(I was faster at doing these things with vim, in which I had way more time invested, but why I switched from vim to emacs is a similar story in many ways.)

Honestly, overall, VSCode and modern IDEs are just a much smoother, better overall experience in so many small and large ways, that I feel I am much more productive, and have to spend way less time tinkering with my editor. And much as I love to do that, I've been doing it for 10 years, and already have a decent set of knowledge about what I need and want. Getting it practically out of the box with VSCode, and having it work better, is a wonder.

(My biggest block in switching to a different editor in all this time was that I had to have a decent VIM mode, because being able to actually edit text at speed and comfort is more important than all the other features to me. But once I realized that Spacemacs' vim mode was decent, I switched to that, and then I played around with VSCode and realized the vim mode there was decent too. Definitely enough to satisfy 95% of standard text editing use cases, with either plugins or my personal mappings making up the gap.)
They only show a few comments on certain pages, which deemphasizes discussion. I'm not aware of any other changes to new Reddit that would do that.

Although other changes might have made things better, like changing how default subreddits work (although this applies to new and old reddit).

With the exception of a few subreddits that have made explicit rule changes (either encouraging or discouraging memes), I haven't really noticed a significant long term trend in meme-posting within subreddits.
I realised this when I traveled from South America to Europe and saw the exact same car commercial featuring a completely different car.
How is a sales deal same as a tech stack, I fail to see your point about fastly’s laundry?

Unlike cloudflare I dont think fastly is in business for solo devs but for enterprises. And each enterprise has its own requirements.

If fastly prefers to know customer requirements before they start using it or tailor them whats wrong?

Meanwhile cloudflare prevents its OWN EXISTSING customers from benchmarking, which is actually draconian.

Kinesis Advantage 2, Cherry MX Brown switches. I have it since September, so 3 months now.

It takes some time getting used to it. People say it's at least 2 weeks, but my experience is at least 2 months. I didn't know how to touch type before although I typed with 10 fingers. So in parallel I'm learning touch typing and getting used to a different layout (i.e. thumb cluster). When I passed 30 WPM threshold I finally started feeling comfortable and productive.

To me, biggest gain wasn't productivity but comfort/ergonomics! 80% of the finger pain was gone in 2 weeks. My shoulder and back posture is just way better. I don't slam the keys anymore, just gentle touch is enough to press them. I also "cheat" a bit by using Karabiner Elements with Space Cadet and Super Duper modes, and it's been a godsend.

To recap, it is expensive but I would never ever go back to any other keyboard :)
Interesting - it's clear that some talented people on a mission were put in the right place at the right time. I too would be interested to hear from anyone that knows more!

Why is experiment tracking essential in ML Part 1/3
FAQ is valuable. You cant mistake FAQ for bad or incomplete documentation. Its just one focused document on particular aspects of the entire system.

People ask about the same or similar things, its a known phenomena. People don't RTFM and manual may be overwhelming. You get value in reading the most frequent questions as a user too, and although all the facts can be deducible from the manual, they are here on one place now, isolated from the rest of the docs.

Compare this to quick/short introduction most manuals have and you get the same duplication problems and the same beneficial points.

In conclusion, FAQ is legit.
Even if you don't have decent eyesight crisper text is easier to read than a blurry mess of pixels representing letters.
I find the opposite. Excel struggles with large files but libreoffice has no trouble, is faster and has regex.

It's missing a few key functions though.
It doesn't need to be legally enforecable to be useful.

At the very least, it is an indication of where they stand. They are free to take any customers they want, and if they say they don't want customers with a certain use case, that's good enough for me.
Please answer the question I posted. "Do you really believe that people use these 4k@27'' displays at a different distance than mac users use their 27 inch iMac?"
The "tilde" part of the name comes from the ~ character, traditionally used to indicate a users public HTML directory.

We don't have to do everything ourselves.

Maybe you could find researchers working on his topic (your disease or the generic problem of identifying causal mutations for a disease) and pay them to work on your case?

You might fight your own parking ticket but you'd get a lawyer for your murder defence...

Computer people get paid a hella lot more than university medical research people, especially those outside big cities or in Europe or Asia. It's more efficient to work hard at making money and hire a few experts.
Anyone using that formula must have either (1) known that the formula was inaccurate at that airspeed, or (2) denied the existence of supersonic shells and bullets.

Likewise today, we know something is wrong with the combination {relativity, quantum mechanics} because if our formula for both were completely true, the universe wouldn’t exists.

The supersonic munitions of the era were rather difficult to ignore, so you need better evidence to claim PhDs would’ve laughed at the idea, than merely that the best formula they had at the time was not good enough.
> they are integrated into the semantics of eg. overload resolution in a way syntactic macros obviously can't be.

Exactly, they are macros that can only be invoked via some weird implicit entry points. Proper macros could be used very much in the same way, of course, if the compiler recognizes their output correspondingly. You could, for instance, use macros to generate traits/type classes to enhance overloading. Why someone would prefer this code generation to be so implicit, I don't understand.

> I don't see why decidability should render them incomparable.

Of course you can compare them if you want to point out that particular difference. But if you claim that templates are more powerful, the obvious answer is: Sure, because they're not type safe. Templates simply aren't a type system extension, they're more like macros.
Nice and interesting concept
Don't know about Apple, but maybe those external monitors shouldn't be such "hot garbage"?!
Yeah, the first months were a mess. Contradictory instructions abound, even if you read all of the ordinances, you are still left unsure if you're on the right side of the law (or worse, simultaneously on the correct and wrong side of the law!)

I don't give a shit about 4K, colour accuracy, ultrawide, or 120+Hz refresh rates. My cheapo monitors look good enough to me, and I have no interest in dealing with the dumpster fire that is HiDPI.

Applications already know how to deal with subpixel AA, and dealing with one application with poor antialiasing is still vastly preferably to dealing with one application with broken HiDPI scaling.

If monitors could just stagnate in ~2010-2015 tech for all eternity, that'd be great. It's a solved problem, let's collectively move on to problems that actually deserve the attention.
I can't help but think that with the way modern languages/programming are going, we're making a rod for our own backs!

Don't get me wrong, I've read about Rust and it's capabilities vs things like C++ and yes, I can see benefits. That's not what I mean.

It's in 10 years when we clone a repo on Github and it pulls down 2000 dependencies: will they all still work?

Everything nowadays seems to require massive dependencies!

I know we've long used libraries for different bits of functionality rather than reinventing the wheel but it just seems like we're giving up masses of control/agility for convenience that may kick the shit out of us later!

Just a thought...

The complication of templates arises from the fact that you need to know the inner workings of a C++ compiler instead of just a language definition. I know that C++ is specified in a very implementation-oriented manner and I also know that many developers don't see the difference, but design ain't implementation.

If you have proper macros you don't need to know the compiler internals. You have an API that generates code with the language semantics you already know. By definition that's simpler. It's also more powerful, btw.

My main “personal” computer is a 9th gen ipad these days but for dev stuff I use a bottom end M1 mac mini with 8GB of RAM. This runs VScode absolutely fine but seeing as I mostly write Go on it, I don’t really need the full weight of visual studio code running.
I know you are replying about "gov.uk" being clear or not, but I would just like to add that a FAQ would probably not cover an edge case.
I find this hard to believe
Given that this appears to be a page about a frequently asked question, I guess they have at least one.
Rust/C++ are not specific to certain types of problems, they can do anything.

That's a whole paradigm shift from using languages that are only fit for a given application domain.
I implemented this functionality for a certain SaaS with many large customers. I made sure to have a scalable way to measure unique viewers across different time frames. Only after we launched it, we realized all our competitors just put a random number that looked nice.

"Democracy has failed us, we must hope for the transformative power of individual billionaires" is a heck of a message, but I guess their propaganda has worked.

The phrase "10% rockstar developer" might be accidental but I'm stealing it anyway.
The problem with this type of thing (to me) is always what happens when reality meets the blockchain?

What is someone loses the private key to their NFT? Do we just throw the wine down the drain? Again no.
Wait a second. Your team was capable of porting from Haskell but incapable of maintaining an existing Haskell code base? Are you sure they just didn't want to use Java because of their own personal reasons?
Another dark pattern is listing a page of products, and marking one as "Sold out". Makes one wonder how much stock is left of the other items, and when those might also become sold out.

Correlation not [necessarily] causation!

Lots of people suggesting having sex might be a prophylactic but also consider that a lower "sex drive" might also be a factor here.

We don't know because we're looking at insurance claim data. You only see links. And only in people with insurance! You have to go much further to show causation.
If you're employed by your clients and do it in their name, doesn't that make you the first party? I'm no lawyer but I can imagine it's to legally be able to close off bots and other shady services.

I have used a full size Ducky mechanical, and TKL cheap mechanical, all with Cherry Brown switches.

To be honest, I didn't find it a revelation.
I currently use a Microsoft Sculpt and I generally prefer it for the ergonomics. My typing speed, which is not brilliant, is about the same across all these boards. I still use cheap dome keyboards at work and don't mind them despite having used mechs.

Mechs tend to have a high profile so make sure your desk set up can handle that without putting your arms and shoulders in suboptimal positions.
So, what I don't understand: Why would companys use it? For example

"Twitter can censor any account or tweet" (its not censorship, but that is another can of worms).
vs
"Web3 tweets would be uncensorable".

Why should Twitter give up control? Why would they want someone to use their platform to publish stuff they can't delete or hide (for example, a live-stream of someone shooting up a mosque)?

Why would any of the big players get in bed with web3 content? they would be turned into a bitpipe?
> Haskell has the downside of being lazy and thus very unintuitive.

Haskell uses monads for lots of stuff, which can be unintuitive too. From what I've seen, multicore OCaml will allow you to write programs in direct-style (instead of monadic-style) and still be async, which would be great. I hope multicore OCaml will be that "garbage collected Rust" that many people seem to want.
If people are frequently asking the same question then your information and how you deliver it is lacking.

You can solve this by making a FAQ, or your can write better information.

Having recently moved from Python (where the documentation is amazing) to TypeScript/JavaScript (where the documentation is horrendous) this issue has never been clearer to me. The only Python library that I’ve ever had to go outside the documentation to understand has been pandas. I can’t think of a single TypeScript issue I’ve run into that hasn’t ended with me going through an infinite amount of web searching and wading through a gazillion useless suggestions.

It might just be me of course. I never really liked the Microsoft documentation pages either, so maybe I’m just an oddity that can only read Python styled documentation, but maybe not. I mean, why does the Express library have a “security FAQ” which seems like it should basically have been a simple part of the “start here” guide? I’m probably missing something, but reading the security FAQ left me with the feeling you would be an idiot not to use the helmet library with express (at least until you know enough to know when not to use it), and if that is so, then it really shouldn’t be a separate FAQ should it?

I know I went down a side track, but it’s really the most perfect real world example I have of why this article is exactly right.
That is just not true. Compiling C++ is a very complicated task, I'd guess that there are less than a hundred people in the world with the experience of implenting a standard-conforming C++ compiler, and there are a lot more developers comfortable with templates.

What exactly is your perceived problem? You need to have the template definition in order to instantiate it; that is pretty logical. Is this kind of basic common sense what you call "knowing the inner workings of the compiler"?
Hehe same here. I always feel like I have been living under a rock when a page like this gets pushed to HN.
I like high frame rates, but if I have to choose, I will go for high pixel density every time. But I'm not a gamer.

I mean they switched to Rust because a comparison of two fully developed systems is fairer than a production system and one in testing. Besides, I believe the blog post said that they selected nodes at actual random?
oh boy. regex is like amazing. i had built this massive calc file for regexing bank statements and had found like 100+ parameters/regex formulae.

one day decided to try to use excel and boy i was surprised. excel didn't know what it was.

i personally find calc or writer to fit m workflow and i am sure it will suit the majority of users out there.
I looked at the K6 for a long time, and ultimately decided on a K8 instead. The unusual placement of the arrow keys on the K6 would just mess with my finger memory, and probably cause more problems than it solved :)

Currently awaiting the K10 to be available in a Nordic layout, and then it will probably replace my Ducky One 2. The K8 is MUCH quieter than the Ducky One 2, despite both being blue switches, though the Ducky has MX keys, and the Ducky has Gateron.

And yes, i will probably go for Red switches instead of Blue this time. Blue has it's charms, but i find the key travel more of a help than the tactile feedback.
By that standard the whole of Rust is experimental, and therefore not usable in production.
Sure, I'm not saying FB is not guilty. But one of the so-called "fake news" spread against the Rohingyas was specifically this - that they committed ethnic cleansing against others in Rakhine. Turns out it was not fake at all.
Yeah, they're probably the same kind of people working on sketchy scam projects/plugins like this, so it makes sense.
A lot of the reason for the aerospace "spans the globe" supply chain is politics - e.g. it's easier to convince other countries to buy Boeing planes, if they also supply parts for them. This is especially the case in Europe, as the main competing option is Airbus

I don't know if it's the case any more, but I found that in the past many of the "official" tabs were actually just the highest rated Guitar Pro tab converted to use the web player and dressed up to look fancy. With a little bit of effort you could get the same result just by looking for the highest-rated gp5 and using that locally.
@author: I don't get why you ordered this from JLCPCB in Shenzhen when there's aisler.net in Europe, which would have been much cheaper. No shipping fees and no import taxes.
Why can't you just suddenly remember it?

It's not like you always, at any moment, remember every single moment of your life. You send it back, and then you remember it. You couldn't have remembered it before you've sent it back, but as soon as you did, you remember reading it.

Makes perfect sense to me. I see no reason why the memory wouldn't spontaneously form.
I've got 2 AOC monitors (2369M + 2490W1), On my mid 2015 macbook pro I had no issues (apart from window server using all my resources when they were plugged in). I'm the new M1 Macbook pro(work laptop) I'm finding quite often I am getting small vertical bands on both monitors randomly, these are more noticeably when using dark themes. I've changed cables and colour profiles and not really fixed it. I've not had this with my old laptop or even my desktop pc.

I would swap them out for 4k displays but it's just too expensive for me. I have been using my glasses more to use my monitors thinking my eyesight is getting worse but it could just be the monitors...
