> I'm sorry. I still don't get it.

IMHO, it's a bedtime story for very young children. It's got a calming pace, a rhythm that you can probably appreciate even if you can't understand words yet, and lots of concrete nouns.

> And despite the overwhelming pressure society places on me reading it to my toddler, neither of us have any meaningful connection to the book.

I have a little one, and he has a meaningful connection to it, because he's at the stage where everyday things are super interesting and new. You give him some more "interesting" book, and he doesn't care about the "interesting" parts, and is more into the cups, the clocks, or the balls.
The article is just a list of insecurities of F-Droid. In fact, it even mentions that you can still use F-Droid if it fits your threat model or for ideological reasons.
Who gets to decide if someone abuses their power? For example the UN did not authorize the invasion of Iraq in 2003.

> it's also a bit triggering for children with fears of the dark, with the line "goodnight noises everywhere".

Can you say more about why you feel this way? I ask because I feel the opposite. To me, saying "goodnight" to noises everywhere is almost like my three-year-old calling a ceasefire for the night; the noises are also going to sleep, so she need not worry.
> react is fundamentally about 'inputs changed, render this'.

The actual article acknowledges that when it's read: "React isn’t truly reactive."

And the author also claims to love React and to think it made things better.

You're arguing with phantoms.
There are various definitions of "algorithm", but that one seems needlessly restrictive. Randomized algorithms are a thing, and there doesn't seem to be much reason to exclude them, to me.
Back in the day I used to carry around a couple Betamax (yes!) cassettes so when the teachers called out sick we could watch something on tv. The school only owned two movies - The Sound Of Music and Romeo and Juliette (with several minutes of static recorded over a love scene). You can only watch the first 40 minutes of The Sound Of Music so many times. I was a hero for having Bullet and Dirty Harry on standby.

The diversity of development environments, languages, etc. that sit on top of web tech such as HTML and WebAssembly provide tools for everything from quick and dirty to highly engineered code.

For instance we have PHP (easy to learn, but weak typing, arguably unclear design philosophy) on one end of the spectrum, and Rocket for Rust (which enforces memory discipline to provide highly reliable concurrency and high performance) at the other end.
React lets you build DOM with normal JavaScript loops and .map; solid requires its own For element. How do you define “does not fight against js”? Because the above feels likes solid fighting against js.
You don't need to be rooted if you're using a custom rom like LineageOS, where you could potentially install the extension with temporary root like is done for UnifiedNLP here: blog.eowyn.net/unifiednlp/
Chrome achieved desktop dominance in part by Google paying for it to be bundled with Flash, graphics drivers, and other popular software. It also got banners on google.com, gmail, etc. It's not some pure organic "user choice" growth story and Google would presumably re-use those same tactics given the opportunity.
> You can easily guess the problem involved with the security model when the OS expects an app repository to represent a source of trust, but the app in question decides otherwise.

No, I can't, because as far as I can tell there is no OS-level concept of an app repository. Where are you getting this from? Can you link to the APIs that have this concept documented?

> Of course, the security model takes into account that apps can be installed from anywhere. That's why they're signed and they're running in their own restricted sandbox.

Right. They planned that in. They spelled it out explicitly. Untrusted code from arbitrary sources is allowed if the user opts in. It's not a violation of the security model, it's a particular case that was specifically planned for.

No, crying out "whataboutism" is precisely what is wrong with our discourse ATM. We are simply unprincipled or contradictory in huge swathes of our daily lives and especially when it comes to these "large" issues. And it is an especially important element in a site like HN with many technical and (rule or process) orientated people. You have to peel back the layers, and the GP comment is spot on in that it spawns a discussion along the lines of "why is this one different?" If we figure out that difference and the collective news and opinion's community apparent double-standard (or not) then we have a good place to allow us to move forward.

Address it, don't dismiss it.

Is Russia committing war crimes? That is new to me. I know of the invasion and the war, obviously, but I did not know there are war crimes being committed.
I am fundamentally skeptical of anything that needs a runtime for anything other than security and profiling.

I am extra skeptical of any framework that needs 50mb memory baseline.

I am triple skeptical of anything that uses brand-new packages and components like legos.

Microsoft’s OSPO year in review–what we’ve learned
Is risk management 101, I'm sorry if you don't understand but I don't have time to explain it to you.

If 100% of your business is based in a country that has been threatened to be invaded many times and also had been attacked 8 years ago and you still think is ok go have 100% of your engineering and core business there then is your problem.

You don't know what Risk management? Business continuity?

Is the same reason why you don't deploy your DB in one PC in your basement and hope that nothing happened. If you get flooded and you didn't have a plan to recover is your sole responsibility.

The same goes business wise
The question for any "gaming console" like this is "what advantage does this have over a jailbroken console of the otherwise proprietary kind". Anyone who'd use one of these things probably got a Vita or an early Switch already and has the technical knowledge to follow jailbreak instructions for them.
My family has served in the Indian Army and Air Force for multiple generations. Still do .. to this day.. I grew up with stories..this was sent by one of my brothers..

[..] India abstained from voting against Russia today at the UN. Many in India are criticizing India for this action. There is one reason...

50 years ago, in Dec 1971, the USA threatened India to stop the 1971 war. An alarmed India sent a SOS to the Soviet Union. A story that has been nearly erased from Indian history books.

When Pakistan's defeat in the 1971 war seemed imminent, Kissinger spurred Nixon to send the US 7th Fleet’s Task Force, led by the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Enterprise, to the Bay of Bengal. The USS Enterprise, at 75,000 ton, was the world's largest nuclear-powered aircraft carrier in the 1970s with more than 70 fighter aircraft. A monster. The Indian Navy’s fleet was led by the 20,000-ton aircraft carrier, Vikrant, with 20 light fighter aircraft.

The USS Enterprise was being dispatched to secure American citizens in Bangladesh was the official American statement. Unofficially it was to threaten the Indian forces and prevent the liberation of East Pakistan. India soon got another bad news.

Soviet intelligence reported to India that a powerful British naval group led by the aircraft carrier HMS Eagle with commando carrier HMS Albion, several destroyers and other ships were approaching India's territorial waters from the west, towards the Arabian Sea. The British and the Americans planned a coordinated pincer attack to intimidate India: the British ships in the Arabian Sea will target India's western coast, while the Americans would make a dash to Chittagong. Caught between the British & the American ships was the Indian Navy.

It was December 1971, and the world’s two leading democracies were now threatening the world’s largest democracy. An SOS from Delhi was sent to Moscow. The Red Navy soon dispatched 16 Soviet naval units and six nuclear submarines from Vladivostok to block USS Enterprise.

Admiral N. Krishnan, the chief of the Eastern Command of the Indian Navy, wrote in his book, 'No Way But Surrender' that he was afraid that the Americans will reach Chittagong. He mentions how they even thought of attacking Enterprise, in a do or die move, to slow it down.

On December 2nd week 1971, the US 7th Fleet’s Task Force, led by the monstrous USS Enterprise arrived in the Bay of Bengal. The British fleet was arriving in the Arabian Sea. The world held its breath.

But, unknown to the Americans, the submerged Soviet submarines had overtaken them.

As USS Enterprise moved towards East Pakistan, the Soviet submarines surfaced without any warning. The Soviet subs were now standing between India and the US naval force.

The Americans were shocked.

Admiral Gordon told the 7th American Fleet Commander: "Sir, we are too late. The Soviets are here!"

Both the American and British fleets backed off. Today, most Indians have forgotten about this colossal naval chess battle between the two superpowers in the Bay of Bengal[..]

As much as any other sane person, I don't support any kind of war or invasion, but this is knee jerk reaction from your side and you are punishing wrong customers, which is not going to bode well with them. Your customers are civilians, what do they have to do with these wars?

I guess this is just a limitation of JS the language showing itself. Other languages have actual aspect-oriented support where before/after/around methods are very clear name-wise and semantics-wise (if not always so clear without tooling support what happens if you come across a 'mount()' call). Maybe it's time for a new JS framework! /s
> Hooks allow you to bundle code together by functionality, and consequently allow you to easily extract and share said functionality in a very composable way.

You’re using React. The mechanism that enables code reusability is through composing components.

There’s nothing wrong with class components even for the most complex logic. The only downside is the community has moved on and mostly adopted hooks and functional components.
Knockout.js was/is wonderful, I'm not sure why it never took off the way angular or react did. I do appreciate jsx though so I'll be looking into Solid.
True. That part is beyond what's required by law, right?

It also promised to contribute a $2 million for humanitarian relief.

I think it's because people are seeking ways to get out of the volatile currencies. Bitcoin blasted up relative to the Ruble today. It was up 40%+. Buyers are just trying to find a way to keep their money's value and keep from going completely broke. Investors are buying dollars, and crypto seems to be another option, to preserve value.

Once people have crypto they can sell it and converted it to any other currency so who knows if it will continue to go up but for now crypto seems to be working.

It's nuts. A few years ago few people thought that crypto would be used to escape a falling currency. It's happening now and people are having a hard time believing it.
> I wonder to what extent China is actually unhappy with the war, and to what it feels it cannot publicly support it.

They publicly support it: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/27/business/china-russia-ukr...

> As the world overwhelmingly condemns Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the Chinese internet, for the most part, is pro-Russia, pro-war and pro-Putin.

The Chinese internet doesn't get any way without the consent (and perhaps encouragement) from the authorities. What they don't censor is sometimes as important as what they do censor.

Could you clarify ‘paradigm’ in context?
Someone should make a list of websites and services that ban users based on ethnicity/nationality. I for one, will stay away from services like namecheap (I am neither Russian nor Ukranian), simply because this doesn't help anyone, but will be used as justification by the pro-Putin guys.
I wonder how many of those promises will actually be fulfilled before Putin gets frustrated.
Exactly, such as.... by contacting Github support (which they offer as a way to undo the incorrect enhancement on the original commit anyway). I think Github should reverse course on this one.
Until we get the electricity from green sources, an EV won't matter.

I attended a talk from an energy research group at my uni a few years ago and the TLDR was "the energy from the grid in this region is so dirty that driving a Tesla has more emissions/mile than a fuel efficient car". Really colored my views on EVs. I still think the message is wrong to reject EVs, but instead that modernizing the grid would instantly improve all EV cars in the region, without needed to coordinate with thousands of drivers to upgrade.

The russians who are using nc's services are mainly the ones who are protesting actively and who are concerned about their privacy for this reason.

Quite often NC is (was?) used to host email domains and such. This decision hurts people who are already anti-war and anti-government. Most of Putins supporters never even heard about Namecheap.

Fifty years ago, the dollar had value because America was the one-stop-shop for everything. Cars, electronics, appliances, all of it.

Nowadays, that's China. China makes everything, or the parts to make everything, and increasingly to a higher standard than can be produced in the US. Go watch Project Farm and think on those results.

The dollar has value now because it functions as a medium of exchange. That's it. The machinery of international purchasing and banking works in dollars, but that's not a given.

Kicking Russia out of SWIFT undermines that entire system. Doesn't matter if it's expedient or warranted or if you just really fucking hate Ivan. It is now very clear to every single bank on the planet that the USG is willing to use commercial entities as a weapon against your country. Not just banks, either: technology companies, medical suppliers, all the rest.

That has very real long-term consequences, and I wouldn't be surprised if China and Russia jointly rolled out a competing standard within the next decade. The combination of "you're using this if you want to buy from us" and "can you really trust the Americans?" is not going to have good consequences for the USD.
Huh that’s not a bad idea. I imagine you’d face some adverse selection though since your largest userbase will be people who leave their fixer upper in the garage all year until they have time to fix it and people who drive $2,000 beater cars and could really use the extra cash. Not the ideal image for advertisers.

Also found this comment on Reddit: “Uber tracks the car top via GPS, and knows when it's turned on. There's a "Cartop display" part in account settings and it shows the number of hours online, whether the cartop is connected or disconnected, and it shows earnings for using the cartop. My earnings said $100 for Aug 3rd - Aug 10th”. So you’d have to build the hardware and infra to track usage stats rather than just mailing a sign and mounting clips to people.

I would consider a reasonable definition of 'open' to include publication of all relevant safety metrics through the appropriate channels. As the other reply mentions, one channel would be the DMV report in CA which Tesla famously eschews. They also don't publish FSD data, and their AP numbers are essentially useless for determining actual safety. They also don't have professional testers like cruise, waymo, etc do validating releases. Those other companies can do better here with publication, but they track safety data very closely internally, even down to specific scenarios and streets/areas. I haven't seen evidence that those sorts of numbers exist at Tesla or are consulted before releasing updates to the public, but feel free to correct me.

If your metric is simply public access and videos, waymo and cruise both have public demos available. jjricks has quite a few videos on the former. The latter is too new and small a program to have much content yet.
