A big part of the reason that JavaScript controls can't capture the nuance is because it takes a lot of work to capture the nuance. So teams justifiably implement the 90% use case and move on.

There are projects that dedicate an unreasonable amount of resources to making these controls in JavaScript and show just how far you can get in JS. For example, https://headlessui.dev.

EDIT:

To directly address the "invisible buffer" thing, look at this control from Headless UI: https://headlessui.dev/react/listbox.

Open it, start typing, and notice the invisible buffer actually does work here.

Interesting. I was looking at the algorithm in evaluate.cpp [0] and it seems to be the case that the control flow is pretty much just an alternative to if-statements... which, personally, I find to be more readable than it'd otherwise be if it were heavily nested. I'm open to arguments otherwise, though.

Consider two alternatives (written in pseudo-Javascript, I guess):

let xyz = 0;
if (!condition1) {
doSomething();
xyz = getValueSomehow();

if (!condition2) {
doSomethingElse();
xyz += getSomeOtherValueSomehow();
}
}
finishUpBusinessLogic();
return xyz;

that seems much less readable than:

let xyz = 0;
if (condition1)
goto done;

doSomething();
xyz = getValueSomehow();

if (condition2)
goto done;

doSomethingElse();
xyz += getSomeOtherValueSomehow();

done:
finishUpBusinessLogic();
return xyz;

> We do not have enough energy storage capability to rely completely on Solar and Wind yet.

How is this an interesting argument? Of course we don't have things before we build them. That's true of nuclear power plants, too. We can likely build out storage faster than NPPs, with more aggressive cost decline with cumulative production.
Nuclear weapons require constant, ongoing maintenance if they have any hope of going bang. Russia doesn't have the assets to keep that up anymore. Their nuclear arsenal is probably a fraction of its theoretical capability.

In addition, if Putin tried to launch nukes, I doubt the other oligarchs would go along with his mass suicide plan.

Ukraine got a raw deal, there's no doubt about that, but they didn't and don't think that it was ever a mutual defense pact. A lot of us have skewed perceptions, because a lot of us live in countries that have never in our lifetimes been invaded, but the general expectation on the international stage is that countries can fight wars without friendly third parties sending in their own troops.

Good points!

To the first point, starting in 2017 the Career solicitation dropped the tenure track requirement. I’m not tenure track and I have no aspiration of perusing tenure.

Your point is taken about there being “investors” no matter what, but the expectations of those groups couldn’t be any more different. NSF is happy if you spend your money on grad students. The idea of building a research program that is attractive to paying masters students is a far different prospect from building a profit making venture. I’m quite comfortable talking about and demonstrating the broad impacts of my work, but those impacts don’t include making investors a boatload of money in terms of selling a product. That’s just not in the cards. And to put a finer point on it, I’m much more comfortable with my investors being the general American public and my country as opposed to principally rich people.

To your second point, I agree that it costs a lot for a company to hire an ML engineer as an employee. But I would say it is not typical for a a researcher with maybe only a couple years of experience post grad school to be offered $500k to work on any project of their own choosing for 5 years (or more, let’s just be clear that $500k is like the minimum you’re even aloud to request for a career award).

I mean, maybe that is happening, I’ve honestly never heard of that. Does anyone here have that kind of arrangement, or have you heard of anyone who has been able to pull that off? Would be very interested to know how to approach a company to convince them of that. Pay me a salary, give me $500k, let me work on whatever I want for 5 years at my own direction, and that would sound comparable to the kind of freedom you get with a career award.

It is, though I'm not certain it means much. In fact it's misstated since it's the probability that this exact sequences appears in 30,000 uniformly random base pairs and it appears in a library of 24712 sequences of sequences of 3300 uniformly random base pairs (see Figure 2). Which to me doesn't say much. It's like pointing out it's very unlikely it would have been typed by a monkey mashing on a typewriter.

A somewhat more honest question would be to look at what they did, which is look at a length 12 sequence (and it's complement) that they apparently found interesting and see if it showed up in a library of 24712 sequences with an average length of 3300.

You can estimate this probability by calculating the average number of matches you'd expect to find. This can be done by taking the number of positions a match could be in, approximately 24712*3300 - 24712*11, times 2 to account for its complement showing up, and multiply this by the chance two length 12 sequences will match, estimated by them at (1/4)^12 (in reality this probability should probably be higher since base pairs aren't uniformly random). Since this is an expected value we can ignore that matches at adjacent positions aren't independent.

This suggests you'd expect to find about 10 matches. So I'm not sure if they simply picked the longest one or if there was just the 1 match. You do get a lowish number of 0.000059 of matching sequences of length 19, that said this chance would be significantly higher when you know there exists a match of length 12, especially if the sequences aren't simply uniformly random.
> The THREAT of sanctions hasn't had the desired effect, and if they are enacted, they will take a while before their effect can be felt by the people involved - weeks, months, I don't know.

Putin doesn't care about Russia economy the way you think he does: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2022/02/lavrov-rus...:

> Their intentions are different from ours too. Putin’s goal is not a flourishing, peaceful, prosperous Russia, but a Russia where he remains in charge. Lavrov’s goal is to maintain his position in the murky world of the Russian elite and, of course, to keep his money. What we mean by “interests” and what they mean by “interests” are not the same. When they listen to our diplomats, they don’t hear anything that really threatens their position, their power, their personal fortunes.

Putin's clique actually stands to gain from sanctions. They control the Russian industry that would have to replace the imports.

> And if they maintain a good relationship with China they may be able to avoid it entirely - although China may then risk its relationship with the rest of the world, if it's found out they're funneling money to Russia.

They will: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/23/world/europe/china-russia...

> China on Wednesday criticized the expansion of economic sanctions against Russia, saying that they were unlikely to solve the Ukraine crisis and that they had the potential to harm average people as well as the interests of Beijing.

It's also worth noting that China has been turning inward under Xi, so it's becoming increasingly willing to "risk its relationship[s] with the rest of the world."

I don't understand this sentiment. Why would it matter whether the UX is different between browsers for a date or colour input?

In the end, if it inserts a date, or a hex colour representation, then I am happy.

Although now that I think about it, there's a chance a date input would return `mm-dd-yyyy` or `dd-mm-yyyy` depending on locale. To have it return a unix datetime would probably be easier for everybody.

Instagram censoring accounts that are discussing Ukraine
One extremely popular (and rapidly growing) Instagram page that's popped up during this crisis - @northernprovisions - was suddenly taken down this evening after making a string of posts documenting the invasion of Ukraine.

Has anyone else noticed this happening? The owner of the page seems to think it's happened straight after they made a post implying the Chinese may take advantage of the situation.

Not that it's surprising, but kind of disappointing to see.
It's not entirely true. Someone who lives in Eastern Europe these border drills and threats are normal and go back to 10 years and more.

> I ran Rails in production years back and swore it off then. We had constant memory leaks that seemingly came from Rails itself, and the only solution we had was "just restart the server."

Nothing is perfect. In my book restarting a server because of memory leaks is an acceptable trade off versus all the crazynes of having to decide and maintain on how to tie together a database, error validation, background jobs, translations, react, redux, an API to interface with the backend, logging, etc, etc, etc. Also, Go is just part of your system, I'm pretty sure you also have a frontend stack, and complexity increases a lot as I explained here. Compare that to Laravel+Livewire or Rails+ Hotwire. Night and day. I'm pretty sure any serious business will take the restarts any day vs the increased complexity and developer time.

> I've been happily running Go backends for the past 7 years now, and they're stable and fast and easy to refactor.

Yes, and I bet something built in 7 years with Go would have taken 7 months with Rails or Laravel.

On the static typing stuff, I'm with you on that. PHP (and Laravel) are a bit closer to that, but nothing is perfect. And for Web Development using Laravel or Rails is a good trade off.

If there is one thing I've learned about Russian technology then it is that in general it will operate 'good enough' to do what it was designed to do even if that means that it isn't designed in a way that we would consider elegant. Assuming that Russia's nuclear arsenal is dysfunctional or even non-existent would be a very large - and possibly fatal - mistake, especially given that it never was designed as a precision tool anyway but relied on massive overkill. You may well be right, but if history is any guide here making assumptions without hard evidence about the nature of an enemy arsenal, either positive or negative will lead to trouble.
While I get most of this, this doesn't make it any better for the people in Ukraine caught in the cross-fire.

Someone could have asked me at many periods during the last few years if I was happy and I might have reported I was but I know for a fact that deep down my mental health was taking a tole even if I didn't notice it at the time. So yeah, self reported mental health status should probably be looked at with a skeptical eye.

> Why is it a "tired trope" to say that you should not be asking other people to do things that you yourself would not?

Because it's a superficially appealing idea that actually makes no sense. In a democracy, anyone gets to ask its government to do anything. Putting extra conditions who can ask is just muzzling democracy. Should the decision to go to war only be up to only the members of the military? No, since that would be clearly undemocratic.

And your idea can be applied to so many different questions, to equal nonsense: Are you a member of the police? Then you better not express any opinion that high crime rates should be lowered, since you're not willing to be the guy to stop them. Don't like trash on the street? Better not complain unless you're willing to quit your job and become a garbageman.

what you are discussing is in normal times when all the politician are at eachothers throats. Everyones got a hidden agenda. The powers and solidarity you get in the face of an enemy ensures quick action, especially where no one can point to the nord stream 2 as an option.

Also, after some digging i can't seem to find a reliable figure to quote the % of imported energy from russia? the nord was supposed to provide 30% more natural gas than currently utilized, but thats a surplus not a dependency since it was never even turned on.

Energy markets have been moving be alot more decentralized in the recent years, not due to any overt action to do so but because energy usage and distribution is much more akin to high frequency trading among grids.
FB took down Russian infoop. Whats surpising here?
The Russian Army is not the powerhouse the Soviet Army once was, relative to NATO. If the Russians go after Estonia/Lithuania/Latvia/Poland/etc conventional NATO forces can stop said invasions, no need to launch nukes.

Hell the German military might do some actual fighting for once if their Polish buffer state is threatened.
This is pretty close to how I view all this. Putin knows the game is lost and so this is an all-in gambit in the hope of forestalling the inevitable.
And leave it to a young person to welcome any change as progress, and see technology not as a tool, but as a good in itself.

No one wants nuclear war. It has long been believed that those are mostly threats against countries that don't have them as for combat between nuclear powers it will probably stay conventional as there is absolutely no winner if it starts.

Maybe there is one, but even when I talk to experienced devs with engineering (not just software) backgrounds, I haven't gotten a good explanation. Perhaps because there isn't one?

Not that "owning a space shouldn't exist," but we should clarify and question "owning a space," because we casually and colloquially believe/accept "property" incorrectly.

But, of course, no. "Property" for grownups is a jumble of rights AND responsibilities.

It's good to question those, especially when it gets to what might be absurdities, e.g. Ted Turner owning a literal U.S. state's worth of land.

> Here I am, a Russian oligarch. I ordered the Ukrainian invasion because I bet that NATO wouldn't intervene because of my nukes

I think the mistake here is to assume that the invasion is dictated by economic interests (be they oligarch interests). I don't think what's happening is driven by oligarchs, but by other geopolitical ideas (insane as they are).

As far as I can see it there's no bet. Russia pretty much knows the US will not react, and the US has no interest to start WW3 over Ukraine.
