> Because he seems to spend no time correcting what he'd claim are massive misconceptions among his fans.

I don't understand... Are you saying he's already claimed that he's been misunderstood (which seems like the opposite of what you're accusing him of) or are you assuming that this is how he would defend himself if pressed?

FWIW, In his GQ interview he quite clearly rebukes these types of "acolytes".
They don't have to sell to them though, right?
Sure, money is simply IOUs that we use as intermediary so that we can trade stuff and services and the number doesn't really matter as long as it is useful to facilitate the the stuff and services exchange.

However, there are many things lost as that number is adjusted.

Firstly, conventionally wedges and B2B contracts and prices are adjusted periodically for practical reasons. If the inflation is %50yoy, that means at the end of the year the money paid and received would be way off, which means people are not compensated fairly. People can't really function in an environment of ever changing prices and wedges, they can but it's very inefficient because everything becomes short term. Companies may have ways to cope with it but people who opted out for a simple life where they do their job and enjoy their lives get screwed over which causes social problems.

Secondly, there's a reason why flipping burgers in the USA buys you an iPhone in 2 weeks but doing exactly the same job in Bangladesh it will take you many months and part of it is the nature and role of the western money, especially the USD but also EUR, GBP etc. If the monetary system that pretty much runs the world gets screwed things can get real fair real fast and fairness is not always meritocratic.

Thirdly, most people don't have access or understanding of instruments to preserve their wealth. In high inflation countries, people simply pour their money into items and property the moment they receive it. It creates society with bad habits.
>First, we need to compile U-boot from source. This is necessary because the binary package available for OpenBSD 7.0 does not include the boot code for the Pinephone. We first modify /usr/ports/sysutils/u-boot/Makefile and add 'pinephone' to the list of aarch64 targets. Since we are modifying the makefile, we should bump the REVISION to 1 as well. Next, we modify /usr/ports/sysutils/u-boot/pkg/PFRAG.aarch64 and add seven lines indicating the files to be installed, namely those that will end up in /usr/local/share/u-boot/pinephone/.

Interesting to see how this is done for a new ARM platform.

>The initial kernel re-linking takes about 90 seconds, and then we are able to reboot into the newly installed system.

I haven't kept up with it so it's news to me that OpenBSD kernel re-linking occurs on non-x86 platforms too.
This is not censorship, is editorial choices
> 2) If there's a form input at each step, the server needs to store that info and be aware that the user has an incomplete checkout. Now the user is at step=2 and presses the back button, or clicks on the step=1 link. In that case, the server should know the information stored in the point no. 2 above, and return an HTML form with the data pre-filled based on the last state.

The problem is that when you press back button in the browser, it doesn't make another request to the server. It reloads the page from browser memory. A link back can be made to work, but that's not what I was speaking to.

I tested the most trivial case, when you return a response, and push navigate to next step, then press browser back button, form state is not retained. Both chrome and firefox do not restore the form state on navigation back after a url push navigation.

I don't think that without some client side JS that saves/reloads prior form state this is a solvable problem because of browser behavior. Either that, or perhaps use different divs for each step then have js hide/show them which is what I will try next but involves writing js to do so.

EDIT: tried multiple divs on same page, same behavior so that will not work.

It's pretty clear that htmx hasn't considered back button much at all, it also clobbers the page titles in history as well (https://github.com/bigskysoftware/htmx/issues/746), but that's a fixable problem.
IIRC Dgraph is schemaless. EdgeDB is schema-first, which gives you type-safety and that amazing TypeScript query builder autocomplete experience :)
> I keep hearing from people who think nuclear's a bad idea that "France is ramping down its reliance on nuclear power, so what does that tell you?"

A cynical person might even imagine French infiltrators behind the scenes supporting anti-nuclear sentiments in neighboring countries in order to eventually sell them electricity. Energy independence and energy costs have started wars before, so it would just be pocket change spent for a future "investment".
You are building up a whole strawman here. This is all about sending personal data to a machine in the US, owned by a company, which falls under US law. You don't have to send that personal data to the US, do you? Why would you do such a thing in the first place? Surely informed people would not simply consent to such a practice. And I mean informed. Not just clicking "OK OK next OK" without knowing what actually goes on, just to be able to see the actual content of a website.
I like this approach. This kind of house-wide reaction to putting my phone on a wireless charger would make me more trusting of the damn things. I only used one briefly, twice in a month where my phone didn't charge, then died, and having no alarm to wake me in the morning all because my phone wasn't perfectly positioned on the pad soured me on the idea.
I suspect that the complexity tradeoff isn't worth it for them. As in it would solve the problem but probably send overall engagement down.

Opt in would be nice, I am sure high follower people would rather go to the effort of categorising their tweets rather than losing followers when they decide to Tweet about their local sports.
Go through each line item in the article and create a proof of concept for yourself. You will learn a lot along the way too.
Potentially, but not in time for 2.0 (which should happen in just a few months).
The problem is number of users they want to see on that platform. If you want to follow/read/interact with someone you will be there. If not you do not care about it. It is surprisingly hard to make a network of people if your network has no people in it. I had to teach this lesson to several managers over the years 'setup a page where our users can interact'. That turned out to be the easy part. The hard part was getting anyone to actually post anything. Much less interact with each other. That happens a decent amount when you try to move into a space that already has established players.
Mastodon is about as easy to create an account on as Twitter (if not easier; Twitter's human verification process is pretty cumbersome).

(Solving the "critical mass of users" problem is left as an exercise to the user.)
I don't disagree with anything you said but I just want to point out that this is very individual. Some people (not me) really can work a lot of hours and be very productive in those hours.

I can do it for a short amount of time (couple weeks per year maybe) & need to rest afterwards, with my usual leisurely pace being about 6-7 hours per day, 5 days a week. I've known people who were able to get 50+ (sometimes a big +) hours per week and get a lot done consistently. Others get stressed by half as many hours.
I don't understand why anyone would read Twitter regularly. The short limit in messages makes any intelligent discussion difficult, so nearly all tweets are either links elsewhere or nonsense. Either way, Twitter is by far the easiest of all social media giants to avoid.
>I'm in favour of nationalisation for UK rail simply because privatisation of UK rail has been a mess.

It was a mess before it was privatised. For all the criticism there has been a lot of investment in UK railways and passenger numbers have skyrocketed since privatisation.

The pricing is fine, if it wasn't then the trains wouldn't be running at capacity (putting aside covid effects). Personally I would be pretty pissed if I had to subsidise my neighbours transport costs just so they can commute to a higher paying job in London.
Compilers for Programming While Tired
Nah, that is also bogus claim shifting people's attention away from what really matters. A government ultimately needs to deliver policies benefitial for the country and its people. It is a failure if it cannot do that, not matter how "democratic" it is, like UK or current US. Being more "democratic" won't change anything
Impressive project, nice work! I'd use the `outdated` command but even just the basic listing of installed packages across all managers looks useful to me.
Inflation of the money supply leads to prices that end up higher than they otherwise would have been.

This does not necessarily mean nominally higher prices.

This is a distinction that leads people to say things like: Obama did it and prices didn't go up. With the implication that it might be ok to inflate to infinity.
Yes they are, they have just announced a $4B stock buyback.

They are a “dividend” stock without proper dividends. Not everything needs to be a growth stock. Having said that 10% down in 10 years isn’t great, especially with where the rest of tech has gone in that time.
As I said, that's just my opinion really. But Monero uses a dynamic block size. The hardware requirements will increase of course. But hardware becomes cheaper over time so the monetary cost of participation does not increase as quickly as LN where the cost of participation is capital directly.
The paper linked in your EDIT is awesome. I'm an AppSec engineer and I had never encountered a term like "shotgun parser". What the authors describe as shotgun parsing is exactly what I've seen from reviewing validation logic across hundreds of enterprise applications. It's nice to have a name for the pattern.

The worst part of shotgun parsing and loosely defined input structure is the difficulty of remediation. I constantly receive pushback from dev teams when I ask them to use regex-based validation per field. What sounds like a simple task actually becomes extremely difficult because lots of apps populate datasets via convoluted monolithic endpoints. Dev teams would have to change the way in which shared services structure and output information. Those shared services are frequently maintained by other teams and any other application which consume the same data would also need to be modified.

In the end, it becomes a compromise where the ad-hoc parsing is tightened/modified to be "good enough". This bubblegum/duct-tape fix only further cements the ad-hoc parsing throughout the org.
And then had the shock of my life at college to the point where I said "screw this" and dropped out. Got a dead end job. Realized I did actually need to put some effort in and went back and graduated. The school system is not fit for purpose! Higher ed does OK.
Another big part of it for me is that they make their ads appear almost like tweets so now when I scroll, my brain has learned to tune them out as useless filler. I don't think making them easier to distinguish would be better because I would tune them out even faster but they need to change how they display ads to actually make them effective.

It's a matter of taste. We decided to do a "looks like SQL + GraphQL" style because that's what most people are familiar when they think about a query language.

That said, the functional variant is a likely way to represent EdgeQL in programming languages.
> Point is people with the money to buy new buy more vehicle than they "need" because it is what society expects of them so in some sense they "need" it to meet the expectations of those around them.

I'm afraid that you are guilty of what psychology would call "projection". Unless you can back your views with hard facts. I have yet to meet anyone just blowing away $100k on a truck that don't NEED.
Everything we do involves being influenced by the interests of others. I'm curious what makes advertising A) special B) necessarily negative.

Advertising is bad therefore it's bad doesn't really prove anything. Is that what you are saying? A good business will provide for at least some interests of its customers, so it's not clear to me that advertising is negative.
We'll take a look, should be a quick fix.
Man, there're so many opportunities to reverse engineer the front-end. One example is the web scraping of a SPA without using a browser. Let's say [reverse-engineering Google Maps pagination][1][2].

People on /r/webscraping are constantly asking about web scraping of JS-rendered websites. As a front-end engineer, you have the experience of front-end debugging and using the browser dev tools. People who come to web scraping from the back-end world don't have this experience and are willing to learn.

This is only speculation, but it's Google. You don't get promoted for making an existing messenger work, or work better. Better to abandon it and join a team making a new messenger.
Yup. But 8 miles out, descending in your general direction, isn't a clear signal that they're planning on landing straight in on the opposite runway from where you'll be taking off.
I was surprised by that too. I took apart a lot of electronics as a kid and distinctly remember it being mostly components with leads.
That’s what people say when a normally healthy and growing company has a dip. But when a company does nothing but lose value for almost a decade, the phrase is totally inapplicable.

> If inflation were allowed to run a bit higher, it could deliver a long-overdue win for young people who have had to face a combination of stagnant wages and rising housing costs.

My understanding is that inflation hurts fixed income, especially the elderly who don't have the advantage of young people where they can change jobs or absorb risk as readily.

If that's true, then the "wrongness" of inflation has been pinpointed - it's ethically wrong to financially hurt our elderly.

Would you turn down a "name your price or we'll run your business into the ground wink wink" (by disabling app store, never getting on the first page to results, etc). Not saying that is what is going on or anything...
> Like another commenter in the thread pointed out, it's like choosing to ride a bicycle and then complaining that it removes your agency to sit in a seat and be powered by an internal combustion engine?

Except you can do that with bikes. You can fit a motor on a bike and turn it into a moped/motorized bicycle. Which means this is actually a great analogy. It's like buying a bike that is specially designed to defeat any attempts at attaching a motor to it, because the bicycle manufacturer believes that bicycles should only ever be human-powered regardless of circumstances.

Maybe you bought this bike because you liked their message of "no cars, only bikes!" and associated branding, but you didn't actually care that strongly about their extreme anti-motor stance. But now you've moved to a place with lots of hills and you can't get around very easily as it's too tiring to go up all those hills, so you'd like to attach a motor just for the hills and you can't. Or maybe you have Long COVID and the fatigue is enough that you can't pedal very much anymore, so you want a motor to give you assistance and allow you to choose whether to pedal or to let the motor take over depending on how you feel.

But since you bought a bike that prevents this, your only option now is to get rid of it, buy a brand new bike, new seat (since your old bike used non-standard seats), new saddle bags (since your old bike used non-standard saddle bags), and all of the other more minor details that go into switching from one type of bike to another. It's a big expense and takes a lot of time and energy to deal with, and until you do you're stuck at home with no way to get around, since that bike was your sole lifeline to the world.
But when interest rates go up, the price of homes will drop.

Sal is an average American. Sal can afford $1500/mo for a mortgage, regardless of interest rates.

Today, Sal can get a 3% rate, meaning they can afford a $440k mortgage (with 20% down payment).

If interest rates rise to 6%, Sal can now only afford a $310k mortgage for that same $1500/mo.

If Sal were the only person who had this problem, then Sal would have to settle for a cheaper house than average. But if 90%+ of buyers are in the same situation, then the housing supply will be overpriced compared to what the market is able to pay.

This drives the prices way down, and it would eventually settle to the price that the market can bear, which might be slightly more than the $310k, but probably not too much.
My experience dealing with product managers is you have to phrase it one of 2 ways.

If you know your taking technical debt, explain to them that its like a credit card, but instead of money its time, and we can go ahead and swipe it, but you will eventually have to pay it with interest, and the cost you are paying is every future story is gonna be a little bit slower until things that should be able to get done in a week take a month. ( I have seen this happen personally with a project and the whole thing had to get completely rewritten)

If its unforeseen technical debt, dont call it that. Call it foundational work. Tell them the foundations were not set in a way to support X or Y feature so we need to change/update the foundations to get them the feature they want. This seems to work best. Don't even tell them there is a hack or duct tape solution, bring up the foundational piece first. If business needs has a requirement that it gets out faster, then transition to the credit card analogy and explain they are now swiping the credit card and whenever they complain about velocity use this an example.

The biggest problem is that product managers typically move on or get promoted by the time the technical debt they incurred causes bankruptcy. And fixing that usually tends to involve a rewrite which will have new flavors of technical debt (especially when its in new language), with a new product manager selling their "V2 solution" as so much better. (and successful delivery of that seems to involve them getting promoted or moving to another place soon after)

I'm not sure what pouching employees means, I think you mean poach :)
It's not just employee degradation, companies don't want to give information about employees for many reasons. Businesses don't want poachers coming into their yard stealing employees. There's fraud and identity theft risks, not just to the employee but the company as well. Businesses don't want others outbidding them on contracts and personnel. And finally, what's the return on investment for former or current employers to spend time detailing their previous and current employees? Are customers going to pay them extra? Will shareholders be happy Wal-Mart gives reviews to the retailer across the street about departing employees during a labor shortage?
Keep in mind that EdgeQL is a query language that can be used from any programming language (either over the official libraries, or over HTTP). Functional JS-inspired dialects aren't appealing to everybody.
If their main way distributing profits to investors is through stock buybacks then that would mean that their stock should have grown right? 10% down without real dividends is terrible.

Really just Twitter but for right-wing people.
As a heavy twitter user who mostly enjoys it (I'm very particular of who I follow), I just don't understand what they've been doing all this time. Their product has been incredibly stagnant for years save for the occasional feature here and there and some styling.

They've screwed over devs trying to build on their APIs and eroded all trust along the way. New features have been rolled out haphazardly, and they totally botched Vine and let TikTok takeover.

Despite all these issues, I like it, but it's increasingly frustrating to use, and can't help but question what's going on inside the company.
