You are not being blamed. It's not your fault.

CRT is very clear to point out how historical racist structures can persist even if no one is racist. Why do you think Oregon has so few Black people?

CRT does not assign collective blame based on skin color. You have provided not one whit of evidence for this. Instead you've totally misunderstood a quote from Kendi, which I've tried to explain here.

We are all, collectively, Americans. We, collectively, still live with the effects of deliberate collective racial discrimination[1]. Some alive today were explicitly targeted by racist Jim Crow laws, with actual experiences. It is our American responsibility to right this historical wrong as best we can.

Is paying reparations to those living people racist? Is paying reparations to the living children of those people racist? Are non-monetary reparations in the name of those people also racist?

If you agree with any sort of reparations for racial injustice, including the interned Japanese-Americans, then you agree with Kendi's quote.

I repeat: You don't stick a knife in a man's back then pull it out and say that that treating his wounds would be discriminate against those who had never been knifed.

The promissory note is long overdue. Let's pay it now.

[1] As a white person, even I am affected, because of the deliberately constructed lies about American race history taught to me in school, including lies of omission.
Lightning is working for an entire nation in El Salvador. Why is Lightning a Joke? I commented below that the UX for Lightning needs work but I would consider that par for the course for an emerging technology.

What are some of the ~20 better solutions and how do they compare in terms of programmatic inflation policy, security budget, decentralization etc? Or are you just trying to equate Lightning to Nano or Visa since they all have low fees and fast transactions?

They make it sufficiently arduous to do otherwise that the bar is higher than what ordinary people can reach. The proof that this is not the case will be when a single store has less than half of the Android app market.
Yeah I think these are very good points. I think maybe what I'd like to have more clarity about is that fixing global warming does look like consumers making different choices. They may be forced to make different choices by the government in some way (carbon taxes, bans, incentives, ect), but it isn't like there are companies that can decide to do better, stop polluting and just stop it all. Part of fixing these issues will mean less European vacations as jet fuel gets more expensive. Part of fixing this might involve driving less or taking public transit more. There aren't tradeoff free solutions to these problems that are being withheld and while tech might fix some of this, developing that tech will come at the expensive of developing some other tech and that choice will impact consumers.

And just because you aim a policy on paper at big companies doesn't actually mean it doesn't impact consumers. You can say there are just 100 companies responsible for most global warming, but if you went and made them stop everyone would starve, and if you tax them everyone will find themselves not able to buy as much as they otherwise would. You can of course also accompany any of these policies with a redistribution of wealth, either by printing money, or by some tax scheme, but you are reducing the pie.

Obviously though we should still do this, the long term impacts of not doing it will be worse and also impact consumers

Open Source, pro and con in a nutshell
I'm not an active golang user, so it wasn't a comment on that, more just on the GP's assertion that a const had to be an abstracted value. It sounds like that is indeed the case in Go (an implementation choice), but more broadly, I wouldn't expect "const" to mean anything more to most programmers than "give me an error if I or anyone else try to modify this thing."

And in C++, it certainly isn't. Even a constexpr in C++ is a thing you can get a pointer-to— C++'s only guarantee with a constexpr is that it has to be possible to evaluate it at compile time.

Yep. This creates a lateral sabotage, work stealing and kiss up culture.
Yep, apple and google are basically a duopoly, and if you want a "normal smartphone" (basically a device, where you can get apps for your online banking, mainstream games and other content, etc.), there are basically no real alternatives.
> never giving Apple a dime (aside from $99/year), yet they are consuming infrastructure: hosting pages, downloads, reviewer time, etc

Pretty sure $99/year is more than a dime. It should be more than enough to pay for hosting the app. As for reviews, app developers don’t need those, so if Apple wants to review apps, they should also be the ones paying for it.

Ha, I had a very nerdy upbringing. My grandfather was obsessed with TVs and ran a side repair business, and then in turn my dad got into micro-computers and PCs. On my mom's side, we've got a bunch of engineers and sci-fi nerds. I learned to type before I could write, and I learned to read by playing things like Dragon Warrior with my dad.

I was also a hyperlexic little weirdo who did things like read the SimEarth manual for fun when I was 5 and decided to explain the differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes to anybody who would listen. So when we got Web access in '93, I was all in. And I loved getting to do something where all that mattered was how good I was at it, since I was bored senseless in school.

I very much had an upbringing like Larry Page's. I'm just a lot dumber than he is.

Edit: I also doubt you could do that now, on reflection. So much of learning programming is based on feedback and I could only collaborate because nobody asked how old you were and/or if they did, they assumed I was lying. Up until I was about 11, it was assumed I was somebody who just didn't want to share any personal information online/a privacy freak who was making up a stupid answer.

Exactly. I didn’t see any indie developers drop their price when Apple reduced the commission to 15% for the first million.
React really has nothing to do with SPA and is only the "V" in MVC. So I'm curious how you were modeling your data in the first place. Since you didn't mention the backend language, I'm going to assume you aren't using node and don't get the benefit of isomorphic code here.

I don't feel it's too much of a stretch to assume that most people doing SPA are probably using node on the server and something like Redux. Then it's a matter of "hydrating" the Redux store + React. Which basically amounts to serialization of the data and passing it to the client via a global variable embedded in the source of the HTML page. When done in this manner, the modelling and fetching of data is identical on the client and the server.

> I’m in the B2B software space

Does your software act like an application? I really feel like B2B is the place to use SPA. You have a login, some sort of dashboard, the user interacts and modifies things. SPA is really slick in this use case. Where SPA falls apart is when you need to present your site as individual pages to Google for SEO and try to get some of the benefits of SPA. That's a nightmare to get right and to maintain.

For B2B I would not use SPA on the marketing, landing, pricing, signup pages and use SPA for the application, itself. Effectively a dual site. Which works really well.
Accounting profit is literally revenue minus appropriate cost analysis. You can't determine profit without appropriate cost. That's the point of the paper and my contention. You're wrong. Stop gaslighting.

Excerpt from the conclusions chapter:

At this point in time, there does not appear to be any relationship between blood type and COVID-19–related severity of illness or mortality. Current literature does not support blood type as part of a predictive model of viral illness or mortality, and ABO/Rh screening should not be used as a triage mechanism.
Do you really think the hardware costs THAT much too?

Users are already paying a premium for the privilege of buying an iOS device. And Apple knows that usually it will add some pressure on friends and family to have devices in the same family. Everything related to the app store is already paid for, the bandwidth is cheap, maintaining the service is cheap enough and covered by the device premium AND the developer subscription.

Whether the apps are free or paid for (with a big cut for Apple), the company is already making money. The tax on top of everything is just a way to make a lot of money and favor Apple services when compared to competitors in the same segment.
Did you misread "mozilla" as "protasia"
So yes, in the broadest possible abstract, sure. But we're talking about the sale of digital goods here. What market for game coins, app features, digital content w/e is so intensely price sensitive, apparently fungible enough that switching apps doesn't matter, but then also not at all actually price sensitive since the mostly arbitrary distinction to the consumer "what brand is your phone" means you can charge 30% more?

Like I totally believe you, I'm actually just interested.
I don't think consciousness is an embodied phenomenon. It's probably just a property or set of properties of the simulated world that we find ourselves in (the simulated world running on the brain).

To me, embodiment such and such seems pseudoscientific. How is it possible at this point in time that anything inside your pinky toe might be influencing the activity of your brain without sending nerve signals to the brain or secreting something into its surrounding which might eventually signal the brain? By some spooky magic?

Not sure where you're coming from here, but this 1-sentence comment sounds like something a serial killer would say.

If someone murders your dog, no big deal to you? And sure, this dog was YOUR dog, but you would probably still agree that, in general, dogs shouldn't be killed, right? I'm not saying this line of thinking extends to all living organisms, but surely you can acknowledge there's SOME gray area between bacteria and "organism as smart as a human".

Another useful thought experiment: what would aliens who are way smarter than us think of us? Mightn't they think of us as so dumb that our lives don't matter to them? How would you try to convince them otherwise?
It would benefit Apple if they had to compete with other payment processors. Competition sharpens the product.
If only it had more free form (while mathematically exact, e.g. NURBS-based) drawing tools, similar to the NURBS-based tools in Rhino 3D [1], it would be a killer platform for a lot of 3D modelling.

In most countries a tourist visa expressly prohibits working while in the country, even if the work is entirely remote. While you can get away with it much of the time in practice, it can become complicated if the local authorities become suspicious that you are violating your visa terms. Some countries monitor this more closely than others.

A "tourist working remotely" visa fills this obvious gap, without the implication of a proper work visa that you are taking a job away from a local (what they local authorities are mostly concerned with).

Apple could decided third party apps aren't allowed and then developers make 0%. It's their platform to decided what to do with. If they think 15/30% works well, then so be it.
Isn’t it… already the case? Culturally speaking, it looks and feel like a separate state. At least that’s the impression I got.

> You have the stablecoin issuers printing like crazy.

Who is exactly printing tons of these stablecoins, USDP? or any other regulated stablecoin?

> and you have the no chargebacks part of crypto.

And using cryptocurrencies eliminates chargeback fraud which that is abused by the users. The merchants can get their accounts shutdown and their money withheld for months due to the payment processors locking the money and they always side with the bank, which of whom have no context if the chargeback is fraudulent or not.

I don't see how one can use stablecoins for speculation purposes, which one can do with Bitcoin, which that is completely unsuitable for payments.
because nobody would do that on a tourist visa. Never happened. Only real difference is you can pay to do it for longer than 90 days.

Staffing is an interesting one (which I ignored, but good point you can't really) - lots of potential deployments of a small machine like this probably don't look anything like a US standard imaging suite, and aren't going to be staffed the same way.

So, when will there be a new frequency auction for apple to get frequencies? How much does it take to get a build permits for each and every one of the new basestations needed from every local municipality (or whatever governing body gives out permits for that)?

Yes, apple has a lot of money, yes apple can buy T-mobile, but for apple to build a tower in bumfuck alabama, that'll take years and years of bureaucracy and pain, and there are a lot of bumfucks around every country.

TypeScript is actually pretty amazing, a lot of people strongly dislike it, but I think it gives a reasonable amount of safety for such a dynamic language, I would use it even if only for the autocompletion. It encourages a better (imo) style of programming than traditional JS that did all kinds of dark magic, like modifying the prototype chain.

Sometimes I wonder what a world with strong ESM support, a slim runtime such as just [1], strong typing (like Rescript is trying to do), a unified format/lint toolchain and a solid standard library would like like, look how far Node.js has gotten despite its numerous flaws.

“ The definition of supernatural is that which exists outside of the order of nature.”

Nature follows these laws, so the laws are abstractly outside of nature.
Did you read this article? Based on what I just read, it doesn’t sound like a therapeutic at all.

It gives your body something that allows it to generate an immune response so that it can quickly attack antigens and fight against an infection. Nothing about what the COVID vaccine does is similar to the therapeutics you mention and it functions in the exact same way as any other “traditional” vaccine.

From what I found, the CDC changed the definition from saying something that “generates immunity” to something that “helps produce an immune response”. This is exactly what the parent comment is alluding to. The definition of “immunity” has been vague. Is it sterilization? Because, as the article points out, isn’t really what any vaccines do. They do the same thing as the latest ones. The main difference is that respiratory infections manifest faster than systemic infections. This is covered in the article here.
There are definitely trees in Iceland. Not many, not everywhere, and not impressive ones, but they exist.

Prototype modification of global objects in JS provides similar monkey patching capability. Interestingly evolution is very different though

The instances of abuse are generally less in mainstream JS libraries, and in many of them such features are usually opt-in or at-least it is possible to still use the lib even when opting out , there is also no major dialect that has privileged rights so to speak.
