Me and my cofounder Chris have been quietly working on Encycla for a while now. Previously, I started LocalWiki[1] and DavisWiki[2]. What I couldn't stop thinking about was: is Wikipedia really "it" in terms of web-wide knowledge sharing?

There's been lots of note-taking apps and personal knowledge sharing tools developed in the past few years. But there's a big difference between working with people you already know and collaborating with anyone on the internet.

Right now, if you're interested in, say DIY air purifiers[3], you could throw up a document or webpage. But there's no good way for people you don't already know to work on it, to make it their own. If you're writing software, the answer is obvious: publish a Git repository on GitHub/GitLab.

With Encycla, we're building a sort of "GitHub for knowledge": a place where you can create simple, topical webpages that others can fork and asynchronously push & pull changes from (without knowing about Git or anything technical).

On the backend, every page on Encycla is a git repository containing Markdown that you can clone, edit independently of the Encycla website, push to other services (such as GitHub, GitLab), etc.

Madness ends with discrimination. The importance of a licence to operating machinery dangerous for the nearby only after validation is clear-cut; that of limiting access to damaging intoxicants to weak decisors with unmyelinated brains is clear-cut; other contexts are not.

You think Planned Parenthood is not polarized? I guarantee you that Wen's favorables/unfavorables break down purely along partisan lines. Plenty of people don't know her. But prior to this statement, all of her favorables were Ds and all of her unfavorables were R's.

Not everything is partisan. But abortion surely is.
It’s effective for people over 50.

Thus for most of the victims of this discrimination, vaccine is marginally useful.
Yeah, I am strongly siding with reason and progress.

Thousands of people have senselessly died from a disease for which a vaccine exists that can effectively reduce the risk of such a death. Social media is very responsible for those deaths.
That's really untrue. The IMF requires more than just money as payment - they require the country to give up control of economic policy, at least partially, and that is worth a lot.

Also, zero interest loans from the IMF are quite rare.
I had the some problem, and several months ago (8?) I put together a small python script that I run that handles saving for me seamlessly. It also keeps around a handful of backups for each wiki, and provides an index page so I can swap between different wikis as I need to. I'm now all-in on TiddlyWiki and I've never been happier. I manage about a dozen or so wikis this way.

I haven't yet gotten around to properly hosting the source code publicly, but it's just a single python file that I run locally. To actually replicate the wikis between my devices, I use Syncthing. I'll be happy to put the source code up if folks are interested...it'll probably take only an hour or so.
You seem to be a bit confused because indeed there's no such thing as "natural, uncontroversial, obvious ordering".

Ordering (and more specifically a total ordering) in mathematics is a set and a binary relation that has the transitive, irreflexive and connected properties.

Not even natural numbers have "uncontroversial natural ordering", as I guess even you can think of at least two different binary relations (<= and >=) that form two different orderings for N.

There's a lot of orderings more, here's one that sorts first odd and even numbers: "0 < 2 < 4 < 6 < ... < 1 < 3 < 5 < 7 < ...". And there's others like this.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray_code

Natural numbers in fact have (or better: form) an aleph one types of orderings. None is "special, uncontroversial or natural" just because we're used to think about the default <=.

The concept of ordering requires two things: the data type and the binary relation. It's a pair of things we can represent as (X, compare) but which compare you choose isn't implicit, natural or magical.

When talking about Haskell, it has the concept of type classes, where types and their behavior are bundled together. That's a design choice of Haskell which has pros and cons, but there's no mathematical foundation for a data type to have one preferred ordering.

Ocaml, Scala and most pure fp libraries I know do not have the limitations of Haskell when it comes to the concepts of ordering and equality, in fact in most of those when asking for an ordering ask you for a data type and a compare function. Exactly what the mathematical definition requires you to.

Not a typeclass where those are bundled together for some design decision.

Hope I clarified you that there's no such thing as "uncontroversial natural obvious" ordering, because there's no such things in mathematics.
I wonder: is this a technical issue, or just a practical joke by someone who has managed to convince Google Drive that they have the copyright to files containing only "1"?

>I'm very angry at the dumbasses who haven't been infected and refuse to get vaccinated, including family of mine who died because of that.

You use your dead relative as proof for your case in the same breath as calling them a dumbass.

This goes to prove a point. Does it matter if everyone is vaccinated & "safe", at the expense of our dignity and respect as a species?
As the alternative to the totalitarian measures we've lived through in the last two years, I'll take it every day of the week. The good news is, you can always lock yourself down if it's a concern to you. There's not really any need to go out of the house anymore if you want to set things up that way.

The PC discussion is like tabs vs spaces and will never be resolved because people will always have different opinions. Anyone that puts themselves in public view like this will attract more attention and generate opinions of all types. I don't let that figure into the larger technical decisions I need to make.

Uncle Bob's writing, teaching, and speaking is widely known and feels like something that a lot of developers know about. Because of this, it's important to know about. Further, he has a lot of useful ideas that developers can use to make their software better. Note that many of the things he discusses aren't new and have been around for a long time. He just re-packages it in a way that a lot of developers find useful. More knowledge gives us all more tools to get our jobs done.

My annoyance around SOLID and any other ideology in software engineering is the near religious fervor around it. A little research will show that many developers are promoting these concepts as "The Best Practice" or "If You Aren't Doing SOLID, You're Doing it Wrong" and similar declarations. I believe this approach is myopic because there are many different approaches and ideas on how to build software.

I'm in the camp of looking at a project and setting up practices, processes, and standards that make sense for the application and team you're working with. Some of it is likely to align with some SOLID principles. Our industry changes all the time and we need to be flexible in how we adapt to new tools and new ideas, respecting the various ideas and approaches that evolve over time.
How will you deal with freeloaders who simply are not affected by ads?

No, and after seeing the rates of cases related to both the vaccine and COVID, it probably should have stayed that way.
The IMF doesn't really care about that. They can loan shark with Bitcoin just as well as with USD or EUR.

Yeah, that must be a Safari thing. I pulled out my Nexus 5 (circa 2013) and everything feels instant. I don't have any working iOS devices lying around to test on unfortunately.
There are multiple ways of pulling this off. Signatures are zk-proof systems, just a very specialized ones. So you do it every time you sign a message.

> In terms of qubits, it is very likely that the problem can be distributed over multiple quantum computers.

No, this is very wrong. Qubits are only different from classical bits of they can communicate before becoming entangled with the environment (decoherence). You can't run some kind of "quantum cable" between two separate QCs in a rack and get twice the qubits - the interactions with the wire will break the entanglement between the qubits, and you will just have an unreliable classical computer with 100 bits of memory.

To perform a quantum computation, ALL the qubits (all your memory) must be in an entangled state together - this is the massive problem. Even worse, this state must be maintained while applying different transformations on the qubits from the outside.
I don't need wireless on something like this. Sure it will help in some cases, but if you need wifi connectivity, then you can usually use a full laptop while lounging on a couch. And you do not really need this. I am sure most people even considering something like this have a wifi enabled laptop already.

This would be great for plugging in in random places and making sure things work and initializing/configuring/troubleshooting various devices that for some reason cannot be reached over the wifi.

As far as complaints, I would go the other way -- why does it not have an Ethernet port. Yes you can use an Ethernet to usb adapter, but it would be so much more convenient if it had a port.
Ryan seems to be a brilliant engineer that takes (only) two attempts to get something right. The cost of such remarkably rapid learning is that he often gets it completely backwards the first time.

Inventing Node before Deno. Creating a compatibility mode in Deno to run Node scripts instead of a tool to port Node scripts to Deno. They even maintain a tool to convert Deno scripts to Node. You really can’t get it more backwards!

I sometimes look at his GitHub issues and PRs and wrong ideas are not rare. Thankfully he assembled a good team that double checks him and catches most of those wrong ideas. But they can only catch so many, and it’s likely more difficult for the executive decisions of the Deno company since money is directly involved like creating a Node compat mode.
A quick look through Reddit shows that no, they can't.

Disagree. Anecdotally a relative dying of Covid traumatizes some (not all) just enough to start questioning their beliefs and get the jab.
HTTP and Gopher both filled that role last century so I'm not certain how that's radical. Admittedly, part of Gopher's failure in the market was that someone, U of M, tried to get money out of licensing it, but that came after its initial release.

What else is radical about it?
My thought was that if the publisher is trying to hunt people sharing copies, and they have such a copy, it would be useful to be confident that the metadata you embedded is actually accurate; sure, it's obvious if, say, the IP field is zeroed out, but what if they just changed the last octet to 7, and that results in you spending weeks leaning on an ISP to give you the identity of the wrong person? Granted, that's probably more care than Elsevier is likely to take, but the point is that they're passing data through hostile hands, so it'd be sensible to do something for integrity checking.
> Because the data shows they don't matter.

Source? Because the CDC says otherwise.

> In the first full week of October, vaccinated New Yorkers with a prior Covid-19 case were 19.8 times less likely to catch the virus than their unvaccinated and uninfected peers, whereas people who were unvaccinated but previously infected were 14.7 times less likely, and vaccinated but uninfected New Yorkers were just 4.5 times less likely.

In other words, natural immunity alone can be up to 5X more protective than the vaccine alone, according to the CDC.

This is very true when you only have a handful of assets (e.g 6 ETFs), but the benefits stick around for longer when you do direct investing in stocks (e.g. rather than buying S&P 500 directly, you buy each of the 500 stocks that make up the index). Then in a given year there will almost certainly be some stocks will losses even if the index as a whole goes up.
> I would say Google should insist that support for office apps come back into chromebooks if they want any sort of support…

Given that Microsoft is using the Amazon App Store, it’s a safe bet that Google is not providing any sort of support. If Microsoft could use Google Play Services, I imagine they would.

We already know how best to capture atmospheric carbon.

The ocean, all 65M km^2 of it, is already capturing atmospheric carbon. This would be good, except that it is also making the top layer of the ocean acidic, which threatens to kill the whole damn ocean ecosystem; and the top layer is getting saturated, so not capturing as much.

So, the solution is to pump surface water down deep, where there is more capacity and where it can do less harm. Maybe pump deep water to the surface, too, so that water not already saturated with carbon can better absorb it; and maybe deliver that to reefs, which need it. You can float wind turbines on buoys in deep water, and pay for them with carbon credits.

Of course this does no good at all unless you also stop piling more carbon into the atmosphere. But you can start doing it before that, and then get increasing benefit after.
For a server, I likely don't need or even want most of the stuff that's on a stock android install (or even kernel). GPS, audio, graphics drivers, mic, camera, SMS, etc are all worthless at best. Bluetooth (and maybe wifi, if you're USB-plugged) represent explicit unnecessary attack surface for a device that I'll be running with dodgy ported software inside my home network.

Good for proof-of-concepting tho, I bet.
Money is just a complicated thing for people. I’ve had very close friends, good people, that had certain habits ingrained in them. Cheapness is a mental disorder, like addiction, or other compulsions. It’s solvable, but boy is it something to marvel at when you see it first hand. It’s like walking into a hoarder’s closet for the first time in your life.
2018: "Hospitals Overwhelmed by Flu Patients Are Treating Them in Tents"

https://time.com/5107984/hospitals-handling-burden-flu-patie...

This pandemic has been extremely hard on many healthcare providers. But hospitals in many areas were routinely overwhelmed during winter respiratory virus season in previous years. They dealt with it as best they could, and we didn't impose mandates or restrictions on the rest of society.

> Well, Windows at some point decided to switch audio outputs on you. You may have a lot of them. Line out, headphones, a bluetooth headset, a virtual out for streaming software, a monitor with built-in speakers

I agree that I have found that problems. I just get the same problems with my TV (Samsung) when I have several audio devices. Maybe one can argue that is a TV problem, not a console problem. But non-portable consoles need a TV to work. So, the problem exists but it's moved somewhere else.

After your comment I realize that portable consoles are that ideal all-in-one, at least older ones without HDMI or Bluetooth.
The only people who make getting vaccinated a political matter are those who refuse to get vaccinated. If you look at the data (and not just the convenient headlines) “unvaccinated, prior infection” have a lot higher chance of reinfection and a lot higher chance of a severe outcome than vaccinated. Sure it is still better to be “unvaccinated, prior infection” vs “unvaccinated, no prior infection” but not the same order of magnitude as “vaccinated and boosted”.

Roughly speaking this is the difference between your risk of driving with no seat belt and no air bags (unvaccinated), no seat belt and no air bags but with a bicycle helmet (prior infection), seatbelt (vaccinated), and seatbelt and airbags (vaccinated and boosted).

The new authoritarian infrastructure that we put in place in order to "combat the pandemic" will live long after the pandemic, and negatively affect the lives of everyone going forward. Governments do not have a track record of giving up power.

Telling people to stay indoors if they're scared is much more preferable to injecting government into every aspect of our lives.

Also I'm not sure why you're mentioning false equivalence to me, since I am also highlighting the false equivalence between vaccines and seat belts.

No. Most of the benefits of quantum computing requires the qbits be entangled with each other, so, crudely speaking, the difference between 100 (1-qbit-computers) and 1 (100-qbit-computer) is ability to compute using the 2^100 different ways the latter qbits can be entangled.
Every time you express an attitude like this you cause fewer vaccinations to happen.
here's an example:

say you have $100k invested
the 1% fee for that will be $1k
the earnings will be $7k

so the "1%" fee takes away 14% ($1k is 1/7th, or 14%, of $7k) of your earnings.
Dwave don't make general purpose quantum computers. They do something called quantum annealing, which is only useful for a very specific set of problems.
The (vast?) majority of pre-industrial tribes I remember studying in anthropology live in very fertile areas like the Amazon, Pacific islands, and the mountainous jungles of central Africa or Papua New Guinea. These areas can support small scale agriculture but for various reasons are impractical to exploit economically.

Anthropologists have gone to great lengths to study tribes that have had little to no interaction with the outside world so our understanding of their quality of life isn't as biased as you'd think.

Seems downvoted, but test roles are a legitimate alternative. It is not more/less work, but is a change of pace from dev/eng roles.

Test positions vary. QA might mean tedious manual testing, or it might not. What you'd probably want is a software developer in test (SDT) position.

This is maybe a rare good experience, but I was a software developer in test (SDT) early in my career, and enjoyed it. The salary bands were the same as dev positions at that particular company. I wrote test strategies and automated everything: end-to-end tests, CI pipelines, performance tests, etc. I gave a few internal talks, switched teams/projects frequently (once per year), and met whole bunch of people.

A big difference for me between QA/SDT and Dev/Eng is I could be more passive. I didn't run meetings and had less responsibility for the project. I never talked to a customer once, although you need a sense of what they want. If my tests weren't 100% finished/passing, the thing is still put in front of users anyway. When you find bugs, the fixes are prioritized against everything else (i.e. non urgent). Usually I wasn't finding major issues anyway, but working on regression tests to ensure most things are basically working from release to release.

YMMV. It's still a lot of work, but different. If you're a competent dev, you'll stand out easily as an SDT.
