IMO the concept of free will doesn't make sense, at least not without also believing in the existence of a soul.

If you were to make a decision that is not in some sense pre-determined by the structure of your brain (as shaped by biology and past experiences), it would be essentially random and just as meaningless as an uranium atom "deciding" to decay at some specific moment and not another.
> When you make a bad decision, according to the other machines surrounding you (society) or your own brain's reward system, you are assigned blame or feel guilty because you should avoid making the same decision again in a similar situation.

But if free will does not exist then other machines (humans) aren't making these decisions either... it's turtles all the way down so to speak. You could go on to say that the entire system (of humans, society etc) is either determined or probabilistic, but still no free will exists. It is meaningless to say whether you should feel guilty or not etc. as it is just part of a system no one has any control over...

Edit:

What I meant to say is that moral responsibility exists like natural selection in evolution, it is there but we don't choose it to be there, it is part of the natural system we find our selves in.

These are strong requirements, but I fear the government just wants more transparency of citizens. Remote-attestation of trusted platforms could lead to the worst surveillance attempts we have ever seen. And it would require you to trust your government. That is a bad idea from a security point of view.

edit: The source of my claim that governments tend to extend surveillance is pretty well documented I believe. So much so that I believe it is worthy to insert the problem into debates about anything relating to security. Because security often serves as the raison d'être for such ambitions.

I think it's important not to conflate churn with fast updates. In it's essence the ability to deliver updates quickly (in this case by downloading a blob of wasm+js each time the app is started) is a great thing imo, as you eliminate a huge chunk of problems around delivering updates and clients on old versions. For 99% of users this is a huge win.

Long term, CO2's worse, but that's probably not the best way to look at it.

Excess H2O (water vapor) falls out of the sky as rain, so it's fairly constant (ie. "maxed out"), and its long term concentration levels are a function of CO2 equivalent gases in the atmosphere. So if you increase CO2 levels, H20 levels will naturally increase as well, and vice versa.
Instead of asking "how bloated can we allow to make websites" we should ask "how can we make this run faster and better and use less resources"
> You're saying that if I don't work then bad things should happen to me.

No, you’re saying ‘I should be allowed to opt out of work while others labour in fields and cobalt mines and cocoa plantations’. If you can’t hunt or grow vegetables, you should perform some other task that society thinks is valuable, and share your part of collective responsibility that way.

Exploitation is already a big enough issue without us making it worse. Brave New World describes very well exactly what would happen - we would end up with worker castes and ruler castes. I see the work already moving in this direction and it is sad.

I have absolutely no problems with people choosing to work fewer hours or in less lucrative professions, provided they are not expecting society to pick up their slack.

Don’t forget that for every farmer in the fields, you also need some sort of supply chain and distribution network, you need people to build the trucks and drive them, you need people to gather the resources needed to build trucks, you need the folks drilling for oil and those working at the oil refineries, as well as the ships that bring the oil to where it’s needed (as well as folks gathering the resources and turning them into ship parts etc.)

We can afford this now because everyone who buys a vegetable in a shop pays a tiny fraction of all these costs. If nobody had to pay for vegetables any more, it’s not just the farmer who is working ‘for free’.

This is just one small product, and the simplest example I could think of. I would imagine that computers and the internet would have significantly more people who would need to work for free in order for you to have a computer.

We basically sold our soul to SIMATIC, Siemens' automation ecosystem long ago.

While it does have its quirks (to put it charitably), it is utterly predictable; as a first-order approximation, the ridiculously underpowered, ridiculously overpriced hardware never fails. (Unless you exert undue influence with a blunt object or high voltage)

I've (recently) patched code on Siemens PLCs being made in West Germany, that is, before October 1990. They still go about doing their thing. That kind of reliability makes me willing to suffer quite a lot of quirks.

Hence, STL, Siemens' near-assembly experience, it is. Snippet below:

> Viewing Japanese only UTF-8 text is totally fine for Japanese localed Windows/Mac/(Linux but YMMV). So your case is to view the text on non-Japanese locale.

The issue is that realistically a certain proportion of customers are going to have the wrong locale setting or wrong default font set.

> It possibly have a problem but how SJIS solved the issue? What software switches font if it opens SJIS file? Is the app/format don't support specifying font/lang like HTML/Word?

Certainly Firefox will use a Japanese font by default for SJIS whereas it will use a generic (i.e. Chinese) font by default for UTF-8. I would expect most encoding-aware programs would do the same?

> If developer can switch reading charset on a file, then they can also switch font.

Sure, but it works both ways. And it's actually much easier for a lazy developer to ignore the font case because it's essentially only an issue for Japan. Whereas if you make a completely encoding-unaware program it will cause issues in much of Europe and all of Asia (well, it did pre-UTF8 anyway).
I think that’s coming. The push for swift will drive it.

I just recently redid my company's website and used CSS grid this time. Our designer used a grid-based layout as well so it was super easy to lay out elements according to the design.

I'm not really a frontend guy so hopefully next time I need to make a website the standards will have advanced even further.

>Why does a^2+b^2=c^2 for a right triangle? It's just axiomatic, right?

Pythagorean theorem is not an axiom. It's a theorem.

>Not exactly. It's only true in flat euclidean geometry

It's a theorem for Euclidean geometry.

>So a^2+b^2=c^2 if and only if the big bang happened to have some particular initial conditions. It's not axiomatic, and studying _if it's even true_ tells you a lot more than you'd expect.

For theorems and the entire concept of math to even work all forms of mathematics from Euclidean geometry to hyperbolic geometry rest on universal axioms of logic. At best we have built higher forms of logic from the universal axioms and mathematics from arbitrary assumptions but we have never delved deeper than the 3 "laws" of logic.

The other weird thing that we don't understand, and this is likely connected with logic is probability. We don't know why it works. It seems foundational just like logic but the weird thing is, formally probability is just like another math theory with random axioms at it's foundation and the rest of the theorems built up from logic.

>If General Relativity holds then we're only in a flat spacetime...

This is part of science. Observed phenomena then statistically matched to a arbitrary mathematical model. The OP's article is talking about something more fundamental... he asks "why?"

When you ask that kind of question you have to really deep. Deeper than the science, deeper then the math all the way to the bottom. Everything stops at logic and probability. There is nowhere left to go to even move the needle closer to answering the question "why?"

I heard that playing outside also generally makes you focus on much more distant objects, and that as the eye optimizes for a "at rest" focal point that best fits what you're looking at most of the time.

So when you're looking at close screens or books for most of your day, the eye makes that be the "at rest" state, but now distant objects are blurry. Now if you insist on having distant objects not blurry (by wearing glasses _all the time_), it's the same situation again and the eye will "adapt" even more, and you'ell get more power glasses, and so on...

If that's true, then people with myopia shouldn't wear their glasses _all the time_, particularly when staring at close objects (screens and books). I have myopia and that explanation fits my experience. Most of the time I'm looking at a screen not wearing my glasses, and the screen is exactly at the right distance for me to not to have focus, so my eye is "at rest" for most of the day.

It sounds weird that a lot of eyes are dysfunctional. Maybe we don't understand how eyes find a trade-off that best suits your average focal distance. It also gives a rational as to why myopia went from a few 1% to 50% of the population in some countries. People started staring at close objects.

I don't know if it's actually true, but it makes a lot of sense to me.
Ironic shudder, as I just recalled that I paid $3000 for NeXTStep Developer in 1993.

I was making exactly zero dollars as a developer at the time. Or, I suppose, negative-three-grand, actually...

So another thing: all of the documentation (which is in need of some work). Books, web sites, Youtube channels, free tutorials... That stuff wasn't free in 1993, either.

There's a lot of terrible YC companies. 90% of everything is crap. YC is a good filter, so it's closer to 50% or less. Still a lot of crap. There are incompetent people who graduated from Caltech or worked at Google. Signals aren't perfect.

YC companies seem to be extreme in some form or another, good, bad, and ugly. Do write it up on Glassdoor. It's a record and something people will check, investors, applicants, and competent HR.

YC itself probably can't even act on it if they wanted. They invested money and if the company was bad enough, they'll die on their own. YC tops up money in a non-signal manner (only when others do). So even if they wanted to back out of an investment, they likely wouldn't.

I manage the team at Google that currently owns the Puppeteer project.

The previous team that developed Puppeteer indeed moved to Microsoft and have since started Playwright.

While it is true that staffing is tight (isn't it always), the number of open issues does not tell the full story. The team has been busy with addressing technical debt that we inherited (testing, architecture, migrating to Typescript, etc) as well as investing in a standardized foundation to allow Puppeteer to work cross-browser in the future. This differs from the Playwright team's approach of shipping patched browser binaries.

Blazor [1] has a concept of "circuits" [2] where each connected browser has a corresponding instance on the server.

It's part of the reason why I personally don't like it being recommended for simple CRUD apps (brings back memories of webforms) as it doesn't seem very "webby", but this makes a great point that for some kinds of apps it's the best or at least a very advantageous model.

It's great to grow terminology and maturate platforms so that we can recognize and then adopt appropriately.

They cannot.
In my 5th role where I write code, and I have dealt with so many different approaches and definitions of "best practice" that at this point I just roll over to whatever the generally agreed approach is at my current org and mimic it as best as possible.

In one organization, I have even had two seniors go back and forth telling me to remove what the other senior told me to put in.

The entire process of defining "clean code" seems painfully arbitrary.
They should add a simple new heuristic to determine an abusive monopoly. If a company is imposing a volume surcharge instead of a volume discount to its biggest customers, it means there exists an abusive monopoly and regulatory intervention is needed.

The biggest downside of this is that everything is painted as "graphics", and you can no longer use the web inspector to modify the fonts, colours, etc.

While few people (like myself) do this directly, lots of people use it indirectly through extensions like Adblock, Stylus, etc.

For example, I find the fonts hard to read due to the colour choices; then I zoom in and it's better, but now this "Widget gallery" no longer fits on my screen and there is no scrollbar.
Apple gives consumers choices that agree with Apple’s business model and takes away choices that don’t - just like any other company. Consumer friendliness is ultimately a function of overlapping interests.

But the anti-trust debate is not about that. It’s about whether or not the opportunities for companies to compete on finding overlapping interests with consumers are unduly restricted, which would indirectly be consumer hostile.
