The mouse cursor on the side of the screen is stupid indeed. But it doesn't make presentations impossible. I think all the objections here are objecting to hyperbole rather than defending the dot.
If you're speaking colloquially, earthworms are bugs but they aren't insects. If you're being pedantic, houseflies are insects but they aren't bugs.
I live in a rural area with very little access to shopping. You don't feel compelled to buy much if you don't see it around.

It really helps too if before you buy something, you ask yourself about alternatives - like if I don't buy this, what are the consequences? I read someone say once that they don't buy anything that they couldn't pay for twice over in cash - makes you think about whether you really need the item.

Overall, it's about shifting your mind set. Let someone else play the game of trying to one-up people. Realize that generosity to others is a greater form of wealth than material goods. Realize that the person who spends lavishly often finds themself out of money at some point in their life. That person who finds the need to "keep up" might actually be signaling a cry for emotional help.
The typical CS "curriculum" has a pretty large focus on performance. Most of the assignments given in my university had constraints around time, memory and cpu consumption. Therefore performance was heavily focused on.

This has carried over quite well into my work life. Things like "big O", understanding the mechanics of different kinds of data structures, and their tradeoffs enter all my code. They don't really take up a large part of my active thinking, but I will routinely make decisions that are more performant and try to weigh in readability, "grok"-ability, and if they are common or not.

I find that university forced me to learn the unattractive bits of computing, that if I was self taught I likely would've glossed over and not spent several months on.

Yes, if stuff is legitimately slow, make it faster. But things typically _become slow_, it's a creep. As time progresses, it slows down, now it's slow and you may not have a product manager who thinks _now_ is the time to dedicated resources towards speeding it up.
The best would be to read Stoller's massive book on antitrust from the days of the standard oil trust to today, "Goliath: The 100-Year War Between Monopoly Power and Democracy". I suppose you could just skip ahead to Reagan and Bork, but the whole book is fascinating.

Failing that, you could read his blog. He's the most succinct and thoughtful writer on the topic today.

This is not some "hidden history" -- they were quite proud of it. I watched it unfold in real time.

I find it fascinating that the Reagan administration (and the bevy of organizations around it) moved taxonomy and models such that the democrats (in particular Clinton) discussed economics and antitrust using the republicans' framework, just as the republicans still think of the economy from a Victorian/Marxist framework (Labor Theory of Value, capital expressed only in smokestack industries and finance, etc etc).

A good suggestion if you have the budget. NDI is also incredible for this. But small producers rely heavily on built-in I/O on their computers, and I suspect that the market share from small/amateur streamers using Apple products outsizes Apple’s revenue from large shops today.

Big productions can afford Decklinks and media servers like Disguise D3.

This shouldn't be possible on Android. Google requires apps capturing http/s deeplinks verify ownership of the URI.[1] They can accept any other schema declared in their manifest otherwise. Example code would seem most plausible, but I can't see how it would work.

You can use them for live visuals. You WON'T (and I don't blame you), but you CAN. "Absolutely useless" obviously is intended to be "I'm super mad about this" rather than literally true.
What makes the axes everyone normally argues about interesting is that people actually tend to have a "position" along them, a property that isn't undermined by the idea that there are numerous different axes people might choose as long as the various resulting axes still allow you to at-least-usually place people along them somewhere (see "Phaedrus's knife"). I thereby challenge anyone who thinks that "bulldozer vs. vetocracy" is a useful "political axis" (I am not arguing that it isn't a useful distinction or even terminology, only that it isn't a "political axis" comparable to any of the others presented in this article) to answer the question of where Vitalik--someone who explicitly tries to argue in this very article that blockchain consensus layers should be a vetocracy (which, by the way, I would argue isn't actually true in a useful way of Ethereum itself, but that's an entirely separate rant) but that application layers should actively support bulldozers--falls along his own axis, because it would seem like he is a clear disproof of his own mental model. I will assert an actually useful "political axis" would need to have this I'm-betting-extreme mix of positions on one side and something in opposition to Vitalik on the other.

COM is an abject failure when you're dealing with a remote system. Like, I challenge you to find anyone with experience in heterogeneous systems software that thinks COM functions well.

And so if we're talking about software that will always be hosted one one machine and memory space, fine, this can work.

The 1994 paper brings up Spring which was implemented in a successful way with DI and AOP principles later in Java. It supported things like transactions across thread contexts, modules, etc. and those concepts were later adopted in other VMs like RoR or any other framework that used components + thread propagation.

The problem always comes down to this megalomaniacal vision of a "unified"-anything. Aside from the agreement problem of adopting those concepts in new and existing languages, some of these concepts simply cannot be adopted in certain languages: thread context propagation, concurrency mechanisms, error handling. And even if we did not have the limitations of certain languages not supporting certain behavior, we have the problem that composition semantics are deeply rich in a domain.

Creating primitives for composition and execution of code that persist across languages and systems does not work without consensus adoption of a language. The same reason why I can not go into IntelliJ, right-click, and "refactor" across my service architecture is the same reason why COM failed and why this will fail.
Where are you borrowing this money without any interest? "Money you borrow" and "cost to borrow that money" are rarely the same value.
Some privacy advocates will equate the two things, but personally I find that reductive and misinformative. A centralized identification system can be abused, in the same way a central bank can. Where privacy can impact such a thing is through regulation and separation of concerns. It doesn't look like when this programmer worked on the system that it was purposed for abuse, so I don't know why this Twitter user thought it appropriate to equate the two. Without knowing that, this discussion is basically moot and this Twitter post is typical Twitter mud-slinging.

The real concerning part, to me, is that one person thinks it's okay to make baseless accusations about abuse and named the developer, which can endanger their well-being and their career.

Basically, stop caring. That's my only option.

I don't melt down, but I say things I shouldn't. No yelling, no profanity, just my position. For example, I am currently struggling not to speak up on the asymmetrical nature of the merit structure at my company. It's still better to keep your mouth shut because in the end it's safer to be part of a group than to be your authentic self.

So now I must accept that there are injustices in the world, some of which directly affect me, for which the "best" thing to do is for me to stay silent.
Shouldn't these things be in hardware? Like I know that macbooks have a green LED next to the camera if they are recording.

Sure, but it's also nowhere near the price of a private tutor. Regardless of subject, I don't think giving each student their own human private tutor is feasible. I've become convinced interactive, adaptive, software based learning is the next best thing, at least when done right.

For language specifically, the only way you're ever going to get anywhere close to the level of a native speaker is by actually conversing with native speakers. I'm still just starting out with Duolingo, but my plan is to finish the course I'm in (or at least get a decent way into it), then switch to Tandem or some other service that lets you trade lessons with native speakers of another language.

> If "dynamic" means "the content comes from a database", as in Drupal or Wordpress

"Dynamic" simply means that you aren't serving a static file from your server, but - in case with Wordpress and Drupal - pulling all the requests through a script that processes them, and returns generated plaintext data (HTML/XML/whatever) every time.

If you move the response-generating script/software from your public web server, and only upload plain HTML files there, you get what's called a "static" site.

If you don't get why people add an additional "build" step to turn their "dynamic" sites into "static" ones, here are a couple of common selling points:

- You get to maintain less moving parts on your "production" server and reduce the load

- You can get rid of your public server altogether, and host your "static" site on GitHub pages or a similar 3rd party service. In this scenario, content management and build process would take place on some other (remote or local, doesn't matter), "dynamic" server
with the interpreter installed

Hope that clears things up a bit.

Edit: I failed to mention that most static site generators (I heard of) build the entire site at once. A snapshot of the site (an artifact) is being built, thus the "build step" naming.

Edit2: Removed some things that are besides the point.

> Plenty of lower class Indian immigrants pool their money for taxi medallions, convenient stores, hotels, trucks, etc. to get a business going.

Are there many "lower class Indian immigrants" who arrived in the past 30 years? The immigration system since the 90s has raised the barrier for Indians so high that the idea of 'lower class Indian immigrants' seems difficult to parse. I disagree with the assertion that Indians have to be very wealthy to immigrate - highly educated/qualified, yes. The era when an Indian taxi driver could immigrate ended many decades ago.
Yeah, I get it. Apple's design is stupid and shouldn't have happened. But obviously Mariah Carey CAN sing on TV with a little orange dot. Obviously nobody wants that, and in practice nobody will accept it. But it remains completely possible and would not completely destroy her performance.

The hyperbole here is just so extreme.
No it’s really not. This is hyperbole.

Things are literally better now than ever before. More access to food, healthcare, and literacy on average for everyone in the world. More protection of basic human rights on average for everyone in the world.

If now is the dystopian future, when in the past would you like to time travel to? Before or after polio vaccine? Gay rights? Before/after Abolition of slavery (in select countries)?
“You should be extending your stay among writers whose genius is unquestionable, deriving constant nourishment from them if you wish to gain anything from your reading that will find a lasting place in your mind. To be everywhere is to be nowhere." — Seneca c. 65 AD

I used to try to read a lot of books, but when I found I couldn't discuss them in detail in a conversation or recall their key points, I thought, "what is the point?" Now I try to re-read one book I thought was meaningful for every new book. I still enjoy reading new material, so this is just a rule of thumb. There's a ton a value in re-reading things!
Instacart’s new CEO Fidji Simo wants to end neuroimmune disorders
For Fidji Simo, CEO of Instacart, improving the patient experience for individuals that have neuroimmune disorders is personal. Having been recently diagnosed with a neuroimmune disorder herself, Simo teamed up with a group of world-class doctors to found a new healthcare startup, the Metrodora Institute, so others won’t have to struggle to find an accurate diagnosis or sufficient care.

“It took many years and a lot of willpower for me to get an accurate diagnosis after getting my symptoms dismissed,” Simo says. “Even once I got [a diagnosis], I bounced around between several specialists. Sadly, as I started sharing my own diagnosis odyssey, many people reached out to me to share their experiences, which made me realize that something was structurally broken in how we care for patients with such conditions.”
At the time of repossession - You no longer own the asset. It's not like they send the repossession guy out the first time you miss a payment. Repossession happens after the bank has taken you to court (Admittedly, through an expedited process, because this type of claim is so so common), and the repo guy is acting as an agent of the court.

This is the law. It is working as intended. It's also moral - If you enter into a contract to buy something on credit, you should uphold your end of the contract. Specific instances have been wrong, and we can argue the merits of this particular case, but car manufacturers assisting the new owners of assets that have been repossessed in securing their asset is at worst morally neutral.

> There's no central planner

There may not be one central planner but there are definitely power centers that exert far more influence than rest of the participants combined.

There’s fed which walks a tight rope of managing inflation while keeping low unemployment rate. And then there’s federal government, by far the biggest spender in the market. You also have Fannie Mae etc selling mortgages which is huuuge.

> And what does European mean?

In this context "European Union" and the company is registered primarily in the EU and where the vast lionshare of profits are declared. The companies mentioned do appear tastefully (or limited in your words) curated are definitely EU based and lends some credence to the overall claim and purpose of page. I'm not seeing controversial 'European' companies that are actually American like Stripe. (Sometimes people claim Stripe to be Irish) -- Adyen is definitely Dutch for example and Mullvad is Swedish.

I'm not seeing anything with a Union Jack on the page and the UK would normally have some entries here. Switzerland and Norway are part of the EU institutions like Schengen and the EEA -- just not full members. So the author of the page does appear to have very good working definition of 'European' but it's not clear what exactly that is -- it's not in the terms page for instance.
I would not assume that is the case, if it’s even possible. I hope it is though!

That may have to do with Duolingo optimizing for paying and returning customers instead of for fluency.

Their app has to be "fun" or in flow rather than in that difficult challenging place to actually help you grow.

In learning both German and Old Norse the most helpful thing for me was to translate texts, read them aloud to a fluent speaker and get feedback. Which is hard to scale.
