I also had a 19" CRT that I ran at 1600x1200 most of the time. It was quite sharp, not as sharp as an LCD but not something I would consider blurry. As you say, just the right amount of fuzz for text.

The interesting thing is that I never enabled anti-aliasing in games with that screen. I just didn't feel the need for it.

Once I got an LCD (I was late to that party), I immediately gawked at how its sharp rectangular subpixels made jaggies pop out.
Creative Commons licenses aren't open source licences. Your phrasing is misleading. They are however copyleft as they allow for redistribution and modification and this is the word you should be using.
Satisfaction at 45% is the highest it's been since 2017. It's only lower on the chart because of all the new and shiny (and unused!) frameworks created later.
It's amazing that in every democratic country other than the US this stuff is uncontroversial, yet has to be explained here on HN. You can't have partisan activists hanging around outside voting booths all day and "helping" people no more than you can have votes being cast by having voters step up to a loudspeaker and announcing their preference to the crowd. I live outside the US and was honestly quite surprised to learn just now that such practices are tolerated outside of Georgia?!

Voting is meant to be a private activity free of all external influence. The solution to long queues is to set up more voting booths so the queues are smaller. The solution to getting thirsty standing in line is the same as for any other queue - bring a bottle of water with you. The solution to people not having ID they can use to prove citizenship is to get them that ID, not eliminate citizenship requirements for voting. This is, like, Intro To Civics level stuff.
That's a very expensive "free"
Most likely the 2nd. Everyone I know that is on angular hates it.
In this particular instance yes, of course – this was more with reference to the dreams of some people who want everything to work like that.
Crypto is like the dotcom bubble. Lots of scams, lots of half finished (but well intentioned) crap, and a few projects that might survive into the future and become something useful beyond being a casino with constantly changing odds.

Rust is particularly good for crypto because 1) it is very efficient and 2) ownership semantics let you model things in a way that prevents many of the issues plaguing solidity and etherum.

There will be a crash though, and a lot of the money on Rust will evaporate, but I think this early push will ensure the language survives well into the future.
>>This new option won't include premium features like custom email...

So, if I'm interpreting that right --unlike last time they introduced a pricing tier and allowed a legacy free option [which I'm on]-- this time there will be no free option that allows you to use Gmail with your own domain?

Time to move on then. I thought we had an arrangement Google: I use Gmail with my own domain for free, in return for which you get to slurp data from my correspondence. Now you want to slurp my data AND have me pay for the privilege?

The second word of my response to that is "OFF!"
The OP (a) showed some icons that I doubt are in Unicode and (b) mentioned some hundreds or thousands of icons.

For people who don't know English, between an undefined icon and an English word they don't know, which is easier to decode, get defined? The English word can be defined in a dictionary and, then, readily translated to nearly any language on the planet. Nothing similar is available for icons.

There is no "popularity" tab? There's a "satisfaction" tab which basically tells you nothing.

The "usage" tab tells us what really matters - that in the last 3 years essentially nothing has changed despite the hype. Angular/Vue/React/Express dominate.
I suspect it was because containers sufficed and using and creating the tooling around them consumed the attention of those who might have otherwise looked at unikernels.
usort – Safe, minimal import sorting for Python projects
Recent commits are not an indicator for a healthy package. There are many unfixed issues and PRs sitting there because there is a single maintainer handling all of it (which is very understandable and I'm grateful for all the work)

You make a good point - what if your support for a cause can create negative consequences for you - be it social (the heat taken by Brendan Eich for supporting a ban on gay marriage) or even criminal (as in supporting Christian marriages in the Roman empire)?

I don't know what to do here. Freedom of speech is not freedom from its consequences and, if we equate financial support to speech, then the whole point of freedom of speech is that it's out in the open showing that the cause is supported.

US-based TSMC.

They have a good chance of succeeding. They are likely to get a lot of government help.

They’ll probably start with older systems, as there’s already a huge need for these, and they have a gazillion existing fabs. It won’t compete with their current lines, and means they don’t need to mothball their legacy fabs.
"Shadow DOM" has the wrong description, I think:
"Web Components is a suite of different technologies allowing you to create reusable custom elements — with their functionality encapsulated away from the rest of your code — and utilize them in your web apps."
Rust is so good, I would switch from python to Rust in a moment if there was the right ecosystem for Data Science / AI stuff
ML in general seems to have a really low standard for citing related and earlier work. In part I think that is because a lot of papers are based on relatively poorly developed foundations or empirical evidence. A prime example are the "Neural ... " papers, which in my view largely took existing research in the optimal control / differential equations literature, prepended the word "Neural" and provided some "interesting" application. This would be fine, if there was some proper context given for the work, but unfortunately that wasn't always the case there.
> "accidentally working-as-intended"

An expression in French for this: "Tomber en marche" (literally: falling into walking). When something breaks we say it "tombe en panne" (falls into being out of service), when something works we say it "marche" (walks). So this expression is like "falling into a working state".

I wonder about the ratio of unknown bugs vs features that accidentally work, in the wild. Such features are time bombs waiting to explode during the next refactoring.
Google has also deprecated several useful features from AppEngine.
Oh it didn't even occur to me to click that popup since I always ignore those when I don't bother to element-block them. I found my way to the home page and clicked the premium license button at the bottom, which was the first link I was able to find about getting a paid product instead of a limited gratis one. That appears to be something different than the regular subscription though. Whose price is misleadingly quoted $19 or $29 monthly, when those are only for annual subscriptions, and if you actually want to pay monthly then it's 2x as much from what I can tell. Anyway, still annoying.
I'll try and write some thoughts on this so maybe you can understand where I'm coming from.

I feel that a lot that makes Prometheus a good movie in itself is how it's paced and the graphical effects, albeit it still suffers from bad writing in a lot of places. The story per-se however is a complete dumpster fire because it changes and retcons the Alien universe lore to fit a story that perhaps didn't need to be told. At the same time there were deleted scenes that literally would have added 10-15 minutes to the run time and would have made it at least a 20% better Alien movie.

What makes a good movie and what makes a great sequel/prequel/movie in an established universe are two different sets of things. A good movie can be a good moviein itself but at the same time an absolutely terrible sequel/prequel/movie in an established universe. If you're working on an original idea then all bets are off, but if the work you're doing is in the exact same universe as preceding works then it needs to follow the lore of that universe - or at least NOT contradict previously established things. And you have to ask yourself - is the story that you're telling belonging in this universe? Does it enrich it? Does it bring something new? And by this you answer if the movie is worth actually making from an art point of view.

Would you like to see a modern version of the Mona Lisa painted in 3D on a computer? What if this art would have a blonde woman in it? With curly hair? And skimpy clothing? It can be a great work of art in itself, but has no business piggy backing on the Mona Lisa original.

As another example, there is a school of thought to subvert expectations by writing really dumb stuff, whereas you could subvert expectations in a manner that fits the universe. Star Wars VII, VIII, IX, Prometheus, Alien: Covenant and a lot of other works basically step all over established lore to tell submediocre stories, thus harming the universe in the process. I mean with Star Wars there's a whole 'nother can of worms - they literally made a huge part of the universe that exists non-canon. Why would you discard a lot of good stuff just so you can push your sub-mediocre stuff is beyond me, but hey, it's their IP, they do with it what they wish. I just can't be over the moon about it.
Found this in my GitHub feed today, looks like an interesting alternative to isort. If nothing else it's fun to see some new ideas. Looks a bit more opinionated (explicitly states configuration as a Non Goal) than isort. Seems to focus on never breaking functionality, which I think is sound.

Right click and select "Block element" if you have ublock origin installed. Or click "Inspect", navigate up the inspection window til you find the html element wrapping that box, and click "delete". The first way is better since it removes it from all the pages instead of just what you are currently looking at.
It's annoyingly common to have these issues with modern display. I have an older Eizo which won't wake up after going to sleep if you use DisplayPort. Dad recently bought a new monitor (can't remember brand) and it has basically the opposite problem: the backlight glows all the time unless you manually power it off.

I'm using it as my framework of choice for 5 years and have helped programmers become productive with it. I have used other frameworks and keep up to date with React.
I have not fulfilled the survey.

Ember was never very popular. It is sort of similar with how Rails is seen. I've found it very productive and great. I've had issues hiring people because they've heard of Ember, have not used it and don't want to move away from React because (my opinion) it's very popular on LinkedIn and the likes.

The chart mixes frameworks and it makes little sense.
Ember and Angular are big frameworks with a sort of standard response for everything.
React and Vue are view layers, you eventually build your own framework. I think Svelte also fits here.
Stimulus updates the browser with html from a Rails server.
Not sure where to put Alpine. They describe it as an updated jQuery-like development thing.
It's based on polling, and I don't think people that are content with what they use are the demographic that fills in these things; it's the people that are interested in a broad range of things, in shiny new tech (magpie developers).

e.g. Angular is a framework that a company invests in long-term, 5-10 year periods.
It's really nice when snowboarding with friends, instead of taking the phone from the backpack every time you miss your crew.

There are also other features of the iWatch that make it really nice when snowboarding, like emergency calls and activity tracking, but that's off topic.
It is from Angular, not AngularJS, if that is what you are asking. The dissatisfaction is quite understable if you look at the actual framework; its broad use is because it is backed and marketed by Google.
Open source doesn't mean, that you can use it however you wish to use it. It means that the source is open. This allows for audits and reading the code, perhaps knowing what the tool / library actually does. What you are allowed to do with it however, is a different matter.

If you are looking for something with more ethics and agenda, maybe you are looking for free/libre software.
Sure, but you should still delete it. You can always add a bar at the old position afterwards. Then it's still a visible redaction, but you don't end up having a hidden copy of the unredacted text.

With that definition you can argue humans aren't intelligent at all. The environments we operate in are very limited compared to for example extremophiles.

JS and TS brought so much happiness to me for years. But I found it extremely difficult to constantly have to "decide" between X and Y.

In the backend, I went all in with Golang and oh my... Now I just code.

In the frontend, Svelte is a godsend. No longer need to find "React-friendly" libraries. Simple JS works for the most part. Not ideal but great versus React for the types of admin panels I build.
I think that there is a lot of bubble bias: React is used in many 1 person projects as well as in small dev teams projects. I would not advise to use Angular in this context, if you are not fluent in Angular.

However Angular in my opinion totally outshines React in setups with many teams. It is comparable to C (React) vs. Java/Swift (Angular). Angular enforces a certain programming style, while React gives you a lot of "include this lib" freedom.

I attended many Angular meetings, and large enterprises use it.

It is similar to .NET and C-Sharp. Great stuff in a certain environment.
I think VCs can invest in any legal realm they choose, although some may seek to avoid publicity because of de facto cancel culture in blue states.

I actually have an alpha smart neo. For a few months I really liked it which is why I’m considering a free write. Unfortunately, one day the batteries popped out of it and I lost a few weeks of writing, because the memory requires steady power or it wipes clean. I’ve put duct tape on the back of it now to stop that from happening again. But the experience kind of ruined the neo for me.
Hours in HN? Wtf
I go to /best to just get the important stuff, and it is while in the bathroom :)
I think everyone in this thread can be in agreement:

* there are language and tooling improvements all the time, that make learning the language easier

* waiting to learn the language can make it easier due to the above

* if you learn Rust today the amount of things you need to learn going forward are few to none, the evolution of the language doesn't make your old knowledge useless

> A nation is peoples, tribes and ethnic groups that, in spite of differences, have something in common that binds them.

What is that then? Because it can't be race, religion, language etc etc.

Really the nation of "India" was created by Britain. It is perfectly easy to imagine an alternative history where the Raj never existed, states in the Indian subcontinent weren't united and so no modern Indian nation as we know it today was ever birthed.

In this view, the Indian "nation" would be like the European "nation" - a fiction. Just because a bunch of people live there with some similar religion and some cultural similarities at a very high level, does not a nation make.

I can imagine in 100 years European nationalists of some new EU state trying to invent a history of the European "nation" that predates their state all through history. But it is just stories with no basis in reality.
65 year olds don't do javascript. which is explainable since javascript itself is ~28 years old and node.js is like 15?

This logic is invalid. That many complex pieces of software exist does not prove that composition along different boundaries does not work at a larger scale.

I've built large platforms out of small, simple components. Works just fine.

The text editor I use daily is composed of small, simple components. Both internally, and by separating out many things most editors do internally: File selection, theme selection, and others is delegated to rofi, for example. Splitting into frames is delegated to my tiling wm. Separating this functionality out changes where the boundaries are, and how to reuse them, not the existence of them.
Sure, why not? Who cares? People come to HN specifically because of the censorship.

Some censorship is good, some censorship isn't.
Mozilla was able to gain market share against Microsoft before by targeting power users who then recommended FF to others (or just installed it for them) so I disagree that Mozilla's current disdain for power users is not relevant. Even if they would have lost the average user anyway, their own decisions is what is going to lose them the rest that is keeping them from obscurity.

I agree that competing with these megacorporations on their playing field is unrealistic, which is why Mozilla needs to start competing in places where these megacorporations don't want to. Mozilla's marketing department has already realized that privacy is one such area, but their developers and culture still need to catch up with that.

This reminds me of one of my proudest moments in high school.

For a test in German class (my worst class), the teacher had just used tippex to remove some words and put them next to the text, and we had to fill them back in. I grabbed my ruler and measured all the sizes. There was 1 very long word, many medium sizes and a few smaller ones, but with this information and the context of the text for the first and last time I was able to get my first and last 10/10 in this class.
I think it's both; it's a solid and stable framework, but people are bored with it because once the technical hurdles have been crossed, front-end software development is just a cycle of building and rebuilding new screens and forms ad infinitum, and a lot of developers get bored with that.
The cognitive overhead from decorators in TypeScript is the thing I have the biggest problem with. It's just one more differential between onboarding code fast, and having to slog through miles of code to figure out what a decorator is doing.
Any way to download the whole set?

What keeps me using Font Awesome is the npm packages and ease of integration into frontend frameworks. This set it seems you need to download each icon you want to use, copy into project &c.

> Finally, it's amazing to me as a programmer how commercial minded designers are in tech.

That comes from the roots of programming and computer science in general, where it's part of the old-school "academic spirit" is making stuff available for others to experiment with and advance on. Universities paid their professors, doctors and other academics to work on all that stuff like compilers, programming languages, communication standards or operating systems - wherever you look in open source projects dating prior to the 2000s, all of them have a strong foundation somewhere in academics or the military.

Only when computers became household items, commercialization really took off, as suddenly the market for software was no longer restricted to fellow academics, a few very ambitious hobbyists and even fewer megacorporations.

UI/UX design, in contrast, never had that "golden age" of third-party funding everything that the people wanted to work on in that moment.
