> Somehow, since browsers are well accepted, node.js is a reasonable benchmark for embedded systems performance [3]

NodeJS relies on V8, which is perhaps the world's most highly optimised interpreter (/JIT compiler/runner), and a spectacular piece of software. The v8.dev blog alone is fantastic reading for anyone who works on compilers, as I do.

I don't like the 'dev' tendency in the programming community, to just hack stuff together and say "well, it works!", but I'm also not impressed by people trashing any high-level languages just because it's a meme they heard.

V8 is phenomenally performant and is a hard benchmark to beat for anyone and anything, even at the compiled end of the spectrum. (Yes, it's beaten by C/C++/Rust/Go, but it's not to be sneered at, at all.) I'm struggling to equal it with the highly optimised Python JIT-assisted interpreter I'm writing for my work - even after relaxing the ABI and writing sophisticated instruction-set-specific optimisations. (And I'm writing it in Rust, just to score at least one point off the cargo-cult bingo card.)

I would think so as well, although the Neanderthal tribes were much smaller than Sapiens tribes, weren’t they?

It's complicated. The margins on console chips are lower than PC margins. When AMD had spare capacity (GloFo), that was great. But with everyone at TSMC and AMD demand high, those wafers could be used for more profitable chips. But the console deals definitely helped AMD in the dire times.

IMO, the strategic error was AMD paying a bunch of cash for ATI, instead of an all stock deal. In 2006, with their stock near the all time high (~$40) AMD decided to borrow $2B instead. Six months later, AMD is issuing shares at $14 to meet expenses. Two years later, AMD is trading at $1.50, and on the verge of bankruptcy. In retrospect, AMD's outcome could have been vastly different if they had done the all-stock deal in 2006, or even issued shares instead of borrowing.
And probably soon to 90y high. Most workers getting a significant bump to keep them at work, worldwide logistical mess, one must be naive to think these and everything else won't have further repercutions.
Console deals are terrible margin - there is a reason AMD won all those deals. If you have competitive chips, you would rather use your silicon otherwise.

I know you try to couch this for "simple" projects, but if done correctly I believe that something like this can be useable for complex applications as well.

From a super high level, we have "structure" and "components". Using anything computer generated for application structure is risky and a bad idea. BUT, for components, I believe there are certain contexts where a "react component" which is autogenerated, by makers.so for example, might work. While I acknowledge some components are foundational and need to be flexible, robust, interactive, configurable, and clean, there are some which don't. There are some components which level in "application space" which are one-offs, experimental, and somewhat rigid in their usage. For these types of components, as long as the computer generated html/css is encapsulated into the component, it might not matter what the implementation details are.

If you just need to set it and forget it, you can save time by using a "Makers.so figma group => react component" process. Later on, if you do need that component to be "productized", then upgrade it to handwritten html/css later.

Notes:

* I built a proof of concept single page application with this approach (Sketch + www.animaapp.com) and it looked promising. Most of the wrinkles in that workflow are being solved at the figma level with variants and "flexbox" support.

* Unless you use more advanced css approaches/sandboxing, you need to make sure the css boundary between your application and the autogenerated components aren't in conflict. This might mean that makers.so baseline css assumptions (reset, whitespace, etc) might drive the baseline css for your application. Which is a bit of the tail wagging the dog. Hence, the high level of experimentation with this approach.

* And yes, I have been around long enough to have "created applications using Microsoft FrontPage" and done a "Photoshop export to HTML" to be very disappointed with the results. :)

Still waiting for those "pure tyrannies". Meanwhile every damn thing I am using in my daily life, from my car, computer to the furnace heating my house - was made by a corporation.

Well, that's what happened: "On Apollo 11, each time a 1201 or 1202 alarm appeared, the computer rebooted, restarted the important stuff, like steering the descent engine and running the DSKY to let the crew know what was going on, but did not restart all the erroneously-scheduled rendezvous radar jobs."

Resource exhaustion was not immediate after reboot because the faulted tasks were low priority and did not get started after reboot right away. I can't even imagine what would have happened if one of the high priority tasks had been the problematic one.

This is actually a more interesting trend than it might appear at first glance.

The prices of _all_ of my hobbies have gone up quite a bit over the past year or so. It seems to be consistent that discretionary/luxury goods are increasing in price significantly faster than the CPI.
You guys are mixing up numbers. 80% of women have a child at some point in their lives, and 60% of men age 15+ currently are fathers. A lot of those 40% who are currently not fathers yet will become fathers at some point in their lives.
It's nice to hear that someone cares about this. I feel like a lunatic howling at the moon. We think decentralization (actual decentralization) is a good thing, but it would be so easy to just run a cloud silo. Everything becomes totally straightforward and simple.

I also hate the way scammy cryptocurrency shonk has sucked all the air out of the room on this topic, especially since most of "web3" is not even decentralized. Most of it goes through a few companies' centralized hubs. Total hot air. I'm thinking about trying to coin a new term for actual decentralization.

Although this article points out a lot of mistakes that can be made when talking about technical debt, it kind of throws the baby out with the bathwater.

The truth is technical debt is a metaphor specifically designed to be understood by non-technical business people. Technical debt has gained traction as a concept because it does actually give a reasonable indication of the cost tradeoffs of short-term vs long-term implementation decisions that was formerly very difficult to explain.

Of course, all analogies are flawed, and the devil is always in the details. Over time "technical debt" has been used to describe all manner of problems which don't really fit the rubric as interpreted by a business person, for instance: changing requirements, UX debt, bitrot, junior coders, bad guesses about the future, etc.

What it boils down to is effective communication: the mental model of your audience, and your reputation. If you are in an org where there is no understanding of technical quality and no trust in engineering, then the assumption will always be that you're sandbagging, and frankly this is no place for an honest hard-working engineer to be. On the other hand, even if there is a strong engineering culture with a CTO who understands the details and has an equal voice at the table, you can't just cry "technical debt" at every turn because engineering is more complicated than that. There are usually paths to deliver value while improving quality over time, but sometimes it requires different kinds of pushback. Reframing the problem with alternate sequencing or 80/20 proposals to product or business stakeholders is often more fruitful than endless negotiations centered around resource numbers. However it all stems from trust. If you as an engineer or engineering manager can demonstrate you understand the needs of the business and can more efficiently transform engineer hours into business results, over time that gives you the reputation to be heard when it comes to long-term tradeoffs.

It's interesting to think about. I'm not so sure myself; yes, an AMD chip would probably yield better GPU performance, but people forget that Nvidia just flat-out has the better software stack. Would games like Red Faction have made it to Switch without CUDA physics? Would No Man's Sky be viable on Switch without leveraging it's massive optimization stack for Nvidia hardware? How about the Borderlands collection and it's extensive use of PhysX?

I can see where the case for AMD could be made (the Steam Deck's APU is truly impressive), but I think Nintendo has invested pretty heavily into the Nvidia stack at this point. The Tegra boards that they made the original Switches with were left over from the Nvidia Shield; nobody was sure if the concept would take off or not. Now that the Switch has outsold the Wii, I'd imagine Nvidia and Nintendo are working very closely to design a successor to the chip, even if it's not going to be a mobile console.
It works as an example that _people in the EU_ don't seem to need them.
That makes no sense. With your augmentation, we could say the 1970s oil shock price increases "were not inflation!" because, you know, external factors.

> Describing this to company leaders in ways they understand is pretty straight forward. "If we take a week now to fix this problem, we will be able to do 3 times as much work in the same amount of time going forward."

I’d argue that technical debt that can be resolved in a week is not real technical debt.

And when you’re dealing with “real” technical debt, it’s hard to substitute numbers into that sentence without lying through your teeth. “It will probably take us a month to two months to fix this problem and in terms of product launches it’s completely ambiguous how much faster we’re going to be.” isn't nearly as easy of a sale.
The effect you mentioned (democratic deficit) is also inversely correlated with unionization (which positively correlates with public engagement with government).
So it could be that the reduction in population median household income due to reduction in unionization (and increase in top earner profit / larger inequalities) causes an exacerbation of the effect, with the observation you mentioned.

Oh? So by a similar theory, it's ok when abused women stay with abusive husbands because who knows what people truly want? Like if the abuse has made them "genuinely" want to stay in an abusive situation, that's cool, and in fact justifies other dudes abusing women until they get the women to that point?

Me, I'm going to stay away from the galaxy-brain stuff and come down on the side of, "It's morally wrong to manipulate people to put money in my pockets regardless of how it affects them."

IMO: software engineers have a professional responsibility to mitigate technical debt (among other things).

Accountants do not _ask permission_ to reconcile the books with the bank account. Mechanical engineers do not _ask permission_ to replace a part that is in danger of failure + could cause injury. Electricians do not _ask permission_ to use the right size of wire for a circuit.

Software engineers should not _ask permission_ to do the right thing. Some component of your software is fragile? Write tests for it. Difficult to add one more thing to that already tangled mess of spaghetti code? Untangle it. No idea how some part of the system works and there's no documentation? Figure it out and then _write documentation_. Security patches need to be applied? Apply them.

There is a balance to strike here of course: you still have to deliver things. Do refactors in small-ish increments if possible (don't just rewrite the entire system). Write a couple tests every time you change something. Whenever you have to ask a question about something, write down the answer. A product owner may not understand the importance of doing these things, but that is not something they need to give their input on. Code organization, testability, etc are not product features. They are engineering details - details which engineers are obligated to pay attention to.

Yes! Ordinary people like ads. They put magazine ads up as posters in dorm rooms. They quote TV commercial catchphrases and jingles to one another. They watch the Super Bowl for the ads. People talk about podcast host read ads and do parody versions. And people love "influencers," who are just advertisers who say sassy things on Instagram or whatever.

But no one likes web banner advertising. It's just a bad experience! At best people like it when you search and the thing they wanted is at the top of the list because of paid placement. They don't care if the placement was paid or not, but they like seeing the thing they wanted. Banner ads make the experience of using a web page worse, but unlike TV ads or magazine ads, they don't contribute anything good back. It's just "here is an ugly square that disrupts your browsing experience." Publishers should think about other ways of engaging reader attention.
If you start super close to the goal, then yes you would double for every loss... for a while. When it starts actually cutting into your bankroll the bets would grow slower and slower and then even start shrinking. It should not surprise me if, far from the goal, you would bet a fraction of your bankroll every time, like Kelly does.

Still, outlawing the operation of such a detector in a vehicle seems a bit of a stretch to me.

Operating a blue flashing light on a car on a public road is partially impersonating an emergency vehicle or police officer. You're directly affecting the people around you with that.

A radar detector is a fancy radio receiver that beeps when it sees certain wavelengths. Its not directly affecting anyone else. I do agree things like radar jammers should be illegal to operate in public spaces, which they are already separate from anything about attaching them to your car, as that's directly affecting other people especially with modern car safety features utilizing radar and laser systems. Public radar jammer operation is illegal though under FCC rules, so there's already things in place to punish those operating such equipment.

FWIW in Virginia and D.C. it really is illegal to possess a radar detector. The police will confiscate them. I imagine there are other places in the world which have similar rules.

> Germany is also one of those countries that blanket bans particular groups/parties in general

You make it sound like Germany is constantly banning political parties. There have been exactly two bans of political parties in the post-war history of Germany: A nazi party in 1952 and a communist party in 1956. Also don't forget who occupied Germany in this decade and made a lot of its decisions.
