Moved away from outlook.com hosting a while ago since so much legitimate transactional email went to spam whilst actual spam easily got through. Now, when outlook forwards to gmail, gmail catch it before it hits the inbox.
What about underpromise and overdeliver?
> But I can still access linked content.

Yeah but it feels like navigating around gets weird if you're not logged, because any link from the direct-linked content (original tweet for RTs, comments, etc...) will navigate then immediately hide the information behind a big popup, and if you close that popup... it sends you back where you came from.
When you know who you are, and are confident in your values, then no amount of pressure from the outside world can make you bend a knee.

You should read about the Asch experiments. Unfortunately the majority of people are very likely to succumb to social pressure and to conform.
The project and the choice of contractors predates SpaceX.
Meta aims for ‘deep compatibility’ with blockchain
'large amounts' is also pretty relative, I'm sure if you had a small team of 10-25 employees on a self-hosted mail server (preferably with a static IP via the ISP) you'd be taken seriously pretty quickly versus only you sending an email once a week or less.
SpaceX wasn't a thing when the project constraints were defined.
> I've survived all my life just fine not being able to drive, doesn't mean it wont inconvenience others to not have a license (though yes, even without that they'd 'survive').

Don’t think these are very equivalent but I don’t think we should be designing society around cars either.

> It'd definitely be harder to keep abreast of some events I go to without it and I'd never bother keeping the numbers of a lot of people I have on there without it yet can benefit from being able to reach.

Everyone is different of course but I think for me meditation has helped just let go of people I’ve met. It makes the at-the-time interaction more interesting and meaningful for me because it’s unique and fleeting. It also makes getting someone’s phone number a more significant event because the interaction was so good that I think we should meet again. I also try to just stay in touch locally.

Admittedly on the professional side I have LinkedIn for most of that stuff but I’ve had days where I’ve been very close to deleting that too but just haven’t pulled the trigger. I think I’d be better off without it probably but it’s also so useless except as a Rolodex that it’s not doing too much harm.

For me when I was at the loneliest and most depressing times in my life I had Facebook. When I met my amazing wife and moved back to Columbus and had a strong social support network and loving family it really made Facebook (or TikTok or w/e) irrelevant.
I could see it if you use the project for proprietary purposes yourself and are not the only contributor, or if you want to reach a wider audience with the project. In general though I'm surprised how large the permissive OSS ecosystem is, but I'm very thankful considering it makes my professional life easier
Calling facebook "meta" is the ultimate in marketing people their own conceptual understanding of things back to them. Truly FB is trying to ZUCK the internet. This meme takeover is the worst part, speaking as a mostly non-user of FACEBOOK products.

I dreamed of a OS filter that lets you turn "meta" back to "facebook" where appropriate. We can't bring AI to the OS fast enough.
There are “free for non-commercial use” licenses, but that is inherently a non-free license. If you restrict what someone can do with the software, it’s not free as in speech.
When I have realised how often I am searching for converting between timestamp and date I have created this website - https://timestamp.online/. It's earning around $100/month. The most interesting thing is how valuable are people from US - overall profit depends almost entirely on clicks from US.
I don't know. Cpanel makes it almost effortless. There are rare problems, and they don't tend to be difficult to fix. If we were using a provider such as Mailchimp, for our marketing email, we'd probably be spending $30k to $50k a year on email. It's well worth the very minor effort required to host our own email.
Because the contracts were made before SpaceX was deemed reliable.
I have a 16" M1 Max, fully loaded. The thermal profile on this thing is insane, here is a screenshot of the internals after being on for a couple of hours with a bunch of chrome tabs open https://imgur.com/a/yjXxdvJ its barely warmer than body temperature.
The launch partner/platform wasn't chosen recently and it's part of what ESA is providing as a partner in the program.

"In exchange for full partnership, representation and access to the observatory for its astronomers, ESA is providing the NIRSpec instrument, the Optical Bench Assembly of the MIRI instrument, an Ariane 5 ECA launcher, and manpower to support operations. The CSA will provide the Fine Guidance Sensor and the Near-Infrared Imager Slitless Spectrograph plus manpower to support operations."

I use a domain, registered at Namecheap, and I forward to my gmail account. If gmail “goes away” I simply configure my email to forward elsewhere. If I’m unhappy with Namecheap forwarding, I point my DNS at another forwarding provider. If I’m unhappy with Namecheap, I transfer my domain to another provider.

It gives me all the flexibility I need with almost no work or maintenance.

There are enough mail providers that I could easily switch to that I don’t need a piece of software. Switching from gmail to yahoo, proton, apple, outlook, or juno is a simple domain adjustment and has me back receiving mail within the TTL period.

It always gives me the impression of beiing better structured, and it doesnt have module architecture (so no conflicts). Unfortunately when a couple of years ago I tried to install it on windows the installation was extremely painful, and the documentation I found lacking (unfortunately).
Contracts or momentum? Haven't looked at actual dates, but my guess is that this project was established long before SpaceX was a viable option.
The way I read it was that Matt saw that WP needed to evolve to compete with everything else that exists, and that the volunteer release lead model that they used before could never lead to anything like Gutenberg in such a short time.

All Matt has done and said makes me believe he loves OSS, freedom of the user and democratization of publishing. Why would he ruin his own creation by looking for an exit when WP is already hugely popular and more importantly why abandon what seems to be his principles around freedom/OS. I will eat my words in 5-10 years if it isn't true but I think everyone will see he will focus just as much on wp.org and freedom as he does Automattic (ie keeping as much as possible open, free alternatives (like jetpack), etc)

ALso Gutenberg is not nearly as bad as those reviews say. It is much better even only in the last few months, though a lot of UX development is needed it is a powerful editor.

It's probably not for everyone but it has a cult following.
My mail server running on DigitalOcean has been relatively trouble free over the last 9 years. It runs docker-mailserver and is used by me and a dozen employees of my various small businesses.

It requires some effort to maintain and understand, and I’ve had a few deliverability issues over the years but they are generally with niche providers. I’ve never had trouble sending mail to the big providers.

Every time I read comments about the impracticality of self-hosted email, I scratch my head. Maybe I’ve just been lucky.
I don't think it will affect opaque types implementation at all, since they exist only in compile time.

As for value classes - Valhalla is a reason (Scala's) value classes weren't removed from Scala 3 (in favor of opaque types), since they seem to be a good candidate to be implemented using Valhalla's classes.

I just want to point out, as someone who's spent a lot of time in the mobile space and worked behind the scenes on some of the most widely used apps out there...

If you see an iOS only app, it's because Android users don't pay.

Sometimes you just need money to make things work, especially when one of your core goals is not needed external funding. Not everyone can get a 50 million dollar grant...

Also you should definitely elaborate on this because it sounds wrong:

> Apple offer APIs which make it easy for app developers to exclude and fragment

No idea what that's supposed to mean, and sounds like strange Apple bashing.

Closest thing I can think of is maybe iMessage apps? But that's a terrible example since the equivalent functionality on other messaging platforms also needs to be messenger specific, that's just kind of core to how they function?
I think business accounts have to be linked with personal accounts, and Facebook requires users to use their legal name. They also do phone verification for signups now so it's not trivial to get around their requirements
I setup and have been running an email server for around 20 domains for over a decade. There have been no issues delivering to Gmail or Outlook, AOL, or Hotmail. There was some work I did initiallity to remove our IP addresses from blackhole lists, which had resulted from whatever the prior owners of the addresses had done. That was, however, minor and didn't take much time. Similarly, setting up DKIM, SPF, and the like were necessary and ugly to do, but they didn't take much time.
> Why isn't SpaceX doing this?

Reliability (as in: established track record).

Although, if Ariane decides to explode tomorrow, this comment will look ... odd.
Who do you think writes these pieces then? What's in it for them?
How much did you pay for it and are there any corruption issues?
How big is it and do you sell wholesale or own brand or both?
But how do you get the thing that implements that interface?

Either the framework has to know how to create a querier for each specific type, drop to using empty interfaces, or use generics.
Looks like there would be fewer opportunities to stop and connect to existing networks if you went that way.
And much much higher for those who are older. What's your point?
I'm always amazed when people claim they work more than that a day. Between meetings, context switching, and social interactions, I pat myself on the back if I manage to work a total of 4 hours.

> our app was just extra work

Just this week my kids basketball coach is trying get all the parents to "use the app" for scheduling and announcements and its just NOT working so back to email which works for everyone.

As both a player and in the past as a coach, my experience with "sports team apps" has been that nobody wants to be the end user's IT department and on any team with more than X players the odds of someone's phone being messed up approaches 100%. "Oh I have an android and you have an iphone so I can't help you" and its just infinite headaches.

If you could find a way to "do the sports team app" thing but over multiple incompatible messenger chatbots or over a web page it might get more traction.

If apps "just worked", which they certainly do not, it would be nice. An app-like experience over a web page might work.

The newer, high tech cars are a bitch to repair, especially given 2021's supply issues. Older cars are easier to keep on the road and cheaper to take care of, which are major concerns for most people. At this point, I'm glad I have the connections to get a cheap junker if I need it; my car is ending the end of its lifecycle and half the cars out there now are proprietary spy-machines.
The article doesn't have an argument or a conclusion. The author FUDs on the floor.

It's fine to vent to the world, but I think the "publish" button can wait.
I read Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother two years ago. Though the book has a bit of controversy around it, I really enjoyed seeing what Asian tiger-parenting looks like, and how it blew up in her face with her second daughter and how she had to adapt to a more American style of parenting. One of the interesting dilemmas was that when doing tiger-parenting in America, your children will eventually notice that their friends have parents who are way easier on them and that can lead to defying and undermining of authority. Whereas in China, because many parents adopt this style it is seen as normal.

Thanks for recommending No Drama Discipline, that sounds like a good read!
That's a happy thought on the eve of Christmas, and IMO another one to include in Rutger Bregman's book De Meeste Mensen Deugen (Humankind: A Hopeful History [1]).

Your comment makes no sense. No one claims that all Uyghur work is forced labour. As the parent comment and article make clear this is about actual forced labour.

And notably the roman empire doesn't exist anymore and the States have outlawed slavery as it is an abhorrent practice that should be outlawed everywhere.
I would wager that almost no statistically significant (what a terrible term) portion of college students know who they are (barring children that have not gone through the gamut of schooling, and have worked most of their lives).

Perhaps replicating the experiment with adults in the 40+ age bracket would yield different results.

I would also like to see this experiment replicated in different countries. The cultural aspect of moral strength cannot be stressed enough (itself a form of peer pressure). But at that point, should we differentiate between morality achieved through individual action vs. morality achieved through one's environment?
I am torn on this

I really like what Swift is doing with many parts of the language, as someone who just sort of passively follows their developer announcements (but has never written it).

But at this point, I am starting to wonder whether it's suffering a bit of the "operator soup" situation that C++ has.

It feels like so many features are getting piled on top of each other in the language.

Recently with Swift 5.5, the whole distributed actors thing, now adding these move and reference semantics, etc.
Funny you should bring up Russia. In Russia, the only way to get anything done with government bureaucrats was to "lubricate" the wheels with some illegal bribes in the right pockets.
So a regular citizen could stick to his moral compass and spend eternity at the back of the line getting no government services whatsoever, or he could do what the majority of people did and pay the illegal "fees".
That should possibly be something that is added directly to the licenses, you can take my product free of charge, but if you want changes you have to pay me at this rate. Put contact details and an expiry date on the deal so people can't get jacked up with very old prices on very old versions. That would also encourage people to keep thier 3rd party inclusions up to date. I don't think that would pass muster as an OSS license but maybe a built in support contract should be a feature of the licenses, one that earns people proper money that makes OSS a model that supports maintainers.
I would think it took 1600 years between a small group of weirdos intuiting that forgiveness was an important, perhaps even a key, virtue and society being organised in such a way as to actually be capable of expressing it in the realm of technology.

I really caution people against tying together every bad thing they see into a grand theory of badness. It's very seductive, very satisfying, and inevitably leads to weird niche ideas you'd never endorse from first principles. I remember for a time I was absolutely convinced that most of the problems the author describes (some of them hadn't yet happened) could be solved if the police would just be harsher on criminals.
> It got to the point, where even my rough sketches would be as good as finished works.

Hah, I feel like I understand more where you're coming from with that. I was the opposite, seeking to get my finished works to feel more like my rough sketches.

> I never really warmed to Boris Valleho's work (he used to hang in a gallery that I had work in, and I met him), but I have to admit, that guy can draw.

That he can draw is undeniable indeed. There are a few artists whose sketch work reaches that level of refinement almost immediately. Others get there after years of study and practice. Still others don't see that at as a goal at all for that stage of their process, and others still would see it as an antithesis to what they're after. Looking at Valleho's finished work, I can at least understand how his sketches are in service to that sort of end state.

Compare, perhaps, to some Rennaisance-era sketches. Typically far rougher compared to the finished works, but hardly less impressive. I'd suggest there's a great difference in what they were interested in: matters of anatomy, gesture, and composition. Of course, they were also inventing and rediscovering knowledge that modern artists have far easier access to. There's an interesting dichotomy in that some destroyed their sketch work, while others had far less interest in actually finishing anything.

I've forgotten an appalling degree of art history, so I can't readily name names, but as far as finished works go, I had a fondness for painters using relatively minimalist brush strokes, with each application of paint exactly the right color in exactly the right place.
Yeah, I might have read the parent comment, thought "oh neat, good on ya", and not thought more of it if you hadn't pointed out that it's $29. Also it has open source software! Which runs on Linux! I had to order one just now for the funs and learnings.

I don't mind at all!

The back-end is Node.js, Express, and MassiveJS for DB access, while the front-end is Vue 3.

I'm really happy with my choice of MassiveJS especially, instead of an ORM, since it allows me to make Models in Nodewood as simple JavaScript objects that can be populated either from the database or from API responses. This means that you can use the same model in the front-end and the back-end, with the same business logic, the same validation logic, etc. Saves a lot of time writing (and maintaining) a lot of code in two or more places!

$200k is a lot, but it doesn't really go far in the bay area if you don't want to cohabitate.

That being said, people have done more with less under similar circumstances, and thinking $200k is not enough is harmful. I used to make $130k, then I made $90k, and now I make $300k and I don't feel any different, even though I once thought it would make me happier. I don't regret focusing on my career, but I now spend time doing things that make me happy instead of working all the time.

As the saying goes, "you can afford anything, not everything." it's important to determine what brings you most joy. For me, it's being able to buy meal kits so I don't have to worry about cooking (save time).

Of course, saving / investing money is important too.
Sounds to me you still need to "earn your stripes" as the company gets bigger, you'll get more meaty work, especially if you understand how the BEAM works and your coworkers don't.

I'm not moving the goalposts, my goalposts are exactly where they were in my first comment: The concept demonstrated in the article was not possible twenty years ago.

In fact I was very specific about what concepts were not possible twenty years ago: "What's being shown off here is not having a single page of a website in just HTML/CSS, but having all pages."

You're the one who proceeded to ignore that and make an unrelated claim about something different that was possible twenty years ago.

I've done and created a second account, which was reduced to a limited account the minute I linked my secondary phone number. Probably used that number on my old account already, so they were quick to strike it down.

I could not link a phone, but I need to link my phone number if I want to get access to more advanced functionality such as running ads, pages, et cetera.

Surely there are a thousand other ways I could sign up again -- but to be honest I don't want to jump through those hoops. I just want my account back. And since that isn't happening, I hope my tale serves as a warning for people never to rely on Facebook as they can take your access away if their bots think you're suspicious.
