> It’s heavily biased

What does "heavily biased" mean in this context? It's a straightforward article that puts forward a position, a series of propositions supporting that position, and a potential solution.

It's biased in that the author has an opinion he's trying to convince people of by providing arguments in its favour, but that's what writing tends to do (including your comment).

The "banning" stuff is obvious hyperbole[0]. No reasonable reader could conclude the writer means CSS margins should be banned in law.

[0]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbole
And then you have a container with A, B, margined apart by max(A.mr, B.ml) and want to insert a sizer knob in-between, which makes them (A.mr + B.ml) apart. Or you have to put ABCDE into a sortable wrapping flexbox, and the best practice* says you must -ml the flexbox, but now you don’t know how much because each of ABCDE has its own +ml. It’s all nice until it’s bullshit.

* which alone is utter nonsense
Voice-captchas where you repeat some corporate slogan is a dystopian future I want no part of.
another thing I like is stuff like "lambda" where you can run a function instead of a whole server application for every api request! Wait, I think I've seen this before.

functionname.cgi?param1=val&param2=val

(replace "cgi" with your favourite php/pl/py/cfm/whatever)
Even then, the people working on this other planet/moon will probably want to come back home to Earth at some point. Maybe a leak that way is much less likely than a leak from an Earth-based lab next to a population center, but I would bet on humans still failing at perfect safety protocols, and bringing something nasty back to Earth regardless.

As the article states, we should be clearly weighing the benefits of gain-of-function research against its risks. It seems like that was the intent of the 2014 funding ban in the US, but we never actually did that work, and that's horrifying. And if the some/many/all of the benefits of GoF research can be realized through other means, even if those means are more difficult or costly, we should probably just do that anyway.

You didn't mention allergy medication. It eliminates allergy symptoms for most people. An air purifier with a HEPA filter will help as well. If not, you're gonna need to talk to a real doctor.
I really resonated with the tip about defensive writing. I do it all the time here and on Reddit.

It’s impossible to say anything on the internet without someone commenting to correct your grammar, pointing out a niche where your argument breaks down, constructing straw man and weak man arguments to refute the credibility of your post, etc

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Subjective opinions vary and when you put out art people will criticize you. Even people who like your art might question why it doesn’t sell. If your art makes money, whether that be picasso or bored ape type art, people will be far more reluctant to criticize your style and execution after all, other people are paying a lot to acquire your art, there might just be something to it, something the critic is missing, so they might shut up and look for that. Peer pressure is a thing, when other people are putting their money where their mouths are, instead of being flooded with cheap criticism, you might be drowning in demand from sycophants.
> self-hosters are also now hosting not one but many websites/apps per server

When was this not the case? Self-hosters are generally more resource-constrained, and thus reusing hardware makes more sense. It was pretty common already 20 years ago.
It's not just a matter of beautiful, it is correct.

Ah-stetic on the other hand is wrong, widespread and the reason of my crusade.
It's definitely likely that the most widespread variant would have strong immune-evasion capabilities, but I don't see how it follows that it it's likely that it would have a low number of silent mutations. The immune-evasion would be something that evolution would select for, but the number of silent mutations (low or high) would seem not to matter where evolution is concerned.
There are several types of designers, and even on the web itself, several different things you might be designing. Designing a text medium (eg. a blog) should have more focus on semantic tagging compared to a SPA where you probably want an entirely different approach (and where talk of "components" makes more sense).

I like TeX's box model over CSS which allows for easier "smart" spacing (look up hglue, vglue, hskip, vskip, and eg. care for orphans when typesetting etc.) and smarter column alignment (trivial alignment on decimal point in tables).

While I'd never call myself a designer, I've done plenty of TeX (print and PDF) publications that people have commended for usability and appearance.
Funny you should mention an unreliable tic-tac-toe, I've been reading the book "Racing the Beam" and it mentions the 1956 relay-logic computer "Relay Moe", which, despite being constructed of little more than 90 relays and a spinning drum, touted a "variable intelligence" which allowed the operator to choose how often the machine makes a mistake, and rotates the board between games so its repetitive strategy is not immediately obvious. Quoting the book (p39):

> Playing against a perfect tic-tac-toe competitor, and playing well, can only ever result in a draw. This may be computationally impressive the first time, but it isn't very fun. Opponents, computer or human, become interesting when they make mistakes--or more accurately, when it becomes clear that they might make mistakes under certain circumstances. Such mistakes highlight weaknesses, which players can exploit as part of a strategy.

The book goes onto explain how Pong on the Atari 2600 achieves a similar level of unreliability, since it would be trivial for the computer to follow the y-position of the ball and never lose. Every 8 frames, the computer neglects to track the ball, drifting behind the position, but recovering its position when the ball ricochets off the top or bottom of the screen. This way the "AI" of Pong occasionally makes mistakes, in order not to be too harsh to the human's ego.

Thorough breakdown of Relay-Moe's logic with photos is here: (3.5MB PDF) https://www.vintagecomputer.net/cisc367/Radio%20Electronics%...
Is this because of budget? Or because of writing or the themes are not commercial enough?

How many really good movies or show were created in 2021 and how many average ones, how many of those good movies or shows are based on some book/novel/script by an non american writer? US might just have the money to push a giant steam of productions and eventually you get a few good stuff in a giant pile of garbage or mediocrity.
This is not a goods approach imho.

When I'm the html/css guy on a team, it makes my work super frustrating to have to deal with devs who preemptively try to break down everything into smaller bits. It gets in the way of iteratively improving my templates and css throughout a project.

The solution is simple.

First, you should use the "bottom margins only" approach wherever possible, cf. CSS best practice "use single directions margins only".

https://csswizardry.com/2012/06/single-direction-margin-decl...

If the Vue/React devs I worked this even understood just this, and put single direction margins in their components, there would be less issues already with collapsed margins and/or unintended vertical spacings.

Even better, just get rid of the spacing margins in the component altogether as the article suggest. But instead of creating more abstraction with "spacer" components, you simply add tailwind-style classes on your components such as list items, in the PARENT component's template.

Then the html/css guy till has full control over the templating, it's fluid and simple to edit, and there is no headaches with abstract "spacer" components that also add unnecessary complexity and indentation in the templates.

The main issue with "spacer" components is that in the end, the design is never this regular, There are always exceptions to the rule, and they are much more easily handled as I said by using atomic css classes like tailwind's `mb-*` in the PARENT template of the components you want to "space".

In my experience this approach accounts for ALL scenarios I've run into in a simple elegant way. The PARENT component of those you want to space can always have a bit of logic in React/Vue for those cases where the spacings differ from the default in the app.
No margins in SwiftUI, spacers and stacks.
My life is pretty boring at the moment, we all need something to pass the time.
It's certainly a possibility, but an incredibly reckless, unethical route to take. One mistake, and you end up killing far more people than before.

Not that I'd put such a plan past some people...

Nice improvement. I think one of the mistakes in .NET was to not have ordinal string comparison as the default for all string operations. Sometimes people forget it and it causes security and performance issues.

| Method | Mean | Error | StdDev |

|--------------- |----------:|---------:|---------:|

| IndexOfOrdinal | 47.71 ns | 0.963 ns | 2.344 ns |

| IndexOfDefault | 201.93 ns | 3.893 ns | 4.923 ns |
I think I would try to have them as separate trials.
It could have saved us (unlikely though) from layers of lies upon lies on handling the pandemic, if we hadn’t started politicizing from the very start.
If they've collapsed, neither AmE nor BrE speakers got the memo, as I've heard it mispronounced by both. Non-native speakers on the other hand tend to pronounce it correctly, as it's a common diphthong in other languages, such as French.
An Australian electronics magazine did an April fools article about using mercury in garden hose for better speaker sound quality, they had a follow up article the next issue to clarify it was satire and dangerous as a few audiophile idiots actually attempted it.
> If anything it’s declined in recent years.

This is true when it comes to businesses accepting crypto for non-financial products or services. Even though there are scalability, security and UX issues with crypto, I don't think that the main blockers for business adoption are technological or that people don't want to use it, but related to business risk.

Crypto regulation has tightened over the last couple of years. Depending on local laws, businesses have to follow KYC and AML laws, complicated bookkeeping procedures, check received coins for a potential history of criminal activity and more. It looks like the regulatory risk for accepting crypto payments seems much higher than just using a commercial third party gateway. That's probably why crypto fintech companies are exploding, while many other businesses cannot deal with the complexity.

For the near-term future, I would expect that many of the third-party gateways allow you to use your existing coins, while they deal with most of that complexity and export relevant tax data for you. Many people now own crypto assets, so a subset of them will want or have to use them.

Maybe we will see a push for more crypto-friendly regulation, once regular use of crypto through middlemen is normalized and only then direct use of p2p crypto can really bloom.
And if this were the case, they don't seem to have done a particularly good job. People have already died of omicron, and that alone would be an indictment of the end result. "First, do no harm", and all that.
Has that University still a "Master degree" or is it just not ok with Git and DB's?
Seems authors suggest three reviewers. from the website:

[...] suggests three potential reviewers. Reviewers should be:

Experts in the subject matter,
Disinterested (i.e. not collaborators or personal friends).
You do not need to know the reviewers beforehand, and a good starting point for finding reviewers are the authors of the related work you cite in your paper.
> And in fact, the information that's required to decide whether the more complex algorithms are worth it is perhaps not known to string.IndexOf, so that's probably something that application developers have to decide.

It might not even be known to the application developers or, potentially worse, they might think they know but the program usage evolves and it becomes wrong knowledge.

For a JIT'ed language though one could imagine more smartness. In theory the runtime could use a sampling profiler in the background to determine any eligible library functions that are taking a lot of time based on caller.

For example, this specific call to IndexOf is taking a lot of time. The runtime could then replace that call to IndexOf with a variant that does some instrumentation, to for example build crude histograms of input lengths and hit locations. Based on this the runtime could replace that call to IndexOf with a version more optimized to the expected parameters.

At least this is possible for a JIT'ed language, though surely would be a non-trivial amount of work.

If you want high performance C# code, it needs to look like this. Very much like C, rather unreadable.

But form my experience, only a very tiny fraction of your code needs to be like that, as in most of the code maintainability and readability is much more important than performance.
Skyrim just didnt do it for me, yay more draugrs to kill..
Peer reviews will just nitpick and point out that the tech solves none of the alleged problems and instead adds a whole nother layer of problems on top of them and is mostly used for pump and dump schemes and money laundering. Totally pointless.

We should just mint all the research papers as NFTs and use smart contracts to vet them.

Margins make complete sense when you do want to fold them, which is common with textual content (eg. imagine an img tag with bottom margin, and a h2 tag right after it with top margin).

The fact that they can be misused does not make them useless.
I've seen some interesting positions from ASML but like many Dutch companies they seem to be office/lab centric. Do you know of any software teams within ASML that are remote friendly?

Cause:

> When the name of a HomeKit device is changed to a large string (500,000 characters in testing), any device with an affected iOS version installed that loads the string will be disrupted, even after rebooting. Restoring a device and signing back into the iCloud account linked to the HomeKit device will again trigger the bug. There are two main scenarios that may occur afterwards, as outlined in the "Effects" section of this document.

Effect:

> iOS will become unresponsive. All input to the device is ignored or significantly delayed, and it will be unable to meaningfully communicate over USB. After around a minute, backboardd will be terminated by watchdog and reload, but the device will remain unresponsive. This cycle will repeat indefinitely with an occasional reboot. Rebooting, though, does not resolve the issue, nor does updating the device
A lot of people seem to regard version control as an adequate substitute for an automated offsite backup. This strikes me as a dangerous habit. There are too many gaps between "what I want to commit to a repo" and "what I would hate to lose in the event of a total system failure".

It's better to keep the two things separate. I'm happy with Backblaze on all my machines - although they have a disturbing habit of making unannouced changes to their default exclude filter which tripped me up (no VM images I knew about. But adding .git directories nearly lost me data). You can override these filters but they really shouldn't be changing them without clear warning.

In general, this sounds like you have 5 directions to investigate:

1. Bacterial infection. Ask a doctor for antibiotic eye drops.

2. Viral infection. Ask a doctor for antiviral drugs. Alternatively, see if it gets better or worse if you boost or weaken her immune system.

3. Yeast infection. Ask a doctor for the appropriate cream.

4. Allergy. Does Cortison make it weaker? Air purifier with hepa filter. $500 and helps against a lot of things, including some bad smells.

5. Autoimmune reaction. Ask a nearby university if they are willing to run a microarray test to see which genes are active in the eye fluid. It tends to cost $10 + 10 minutes of work if you order that for research purposes.

Edit : can't find the paper, but i remember that covid increases your risks of eye fungi. Something about black mushrooms in India
True, most people in EU outright refuse to get any other vaccination than Corminaty if they have choice, even SpikeVax had some acceptance trouble because other vaccinations are perceived as inferior in public opinion. Chinese or russian vaccs would have no chance of acceptance by the public here.
This is true to the bone. It's hilarious how many native speakers ignore this - even knowingly. It also goes beyond pronunciation into local slang and choice of vocabulary.

In my experience "Native Speakers" often don't understand each other correctly (of course random ones, from different parts of world) - plenty of tiny misunderstandings due to the tempo of conversation. 5 random non-native speakers may have all bad accents but they speak freely. When a native speaker joins the room the other 5 suddenly say they can't keep up and native speaker doesn't know how to fix that. I'm not even generalizing - seen it in practice many times.

I find it very true in daily technical conversations with other companies, conferences and on any type of trainings (online courses as well). Non native speakers tend to get to the point more easily. It's easier for themselves. Then don't try to dazzle you with funny wordplay and jokes that make no sense outside of speakers country. It takes a lot of skill for a native speaker to be pleasant for foreigners.
I think maybe Wikipedia is better here than Wolfram's site, it has entries for Ramanujan graphs and expander graphs for example.

The paper does actually seem readable, especially at the beginning, but it's dense and long. Somewhere between the article and the paper in terms of complexity and technicality would definitely be interesting to me, although I realise it's a lot of work to produce something like that.

Interestingly the paper acknowledges collaborators who have helped via MathOverflow. I wonder if a collaborative site for explaining maths papers in more detail could be viable. After all, even xkcd.com has explainxkcd.com. Like you, I am not sure what this would like, but it would be fun to find out.
A small bavarian town in the 80's. A summer day in an elementary school which happens to be across a leather-tanning-plant. One of the kids suddenly bursts out "hey look, why do all the trees suddenly turn brown?". The teacher is flabbergasted but wise enough to close all the windows immediately. Outside it looks like autumn is in full blow, while the sirens in the city go off and the road between school and plant fills rapidly with firetrucks, ambulance and police cars...

It later turned out that one container had over-pressure and a chemical escaped trough an outlet... no people were harmed though but every leave in the vicinity
turned completely brown...
