To be honest I kind of understand this “passing the buck”. In computing in general you never trust the guy up the stack to give you good input. Query engines do filter reordering because they don’t trust the optimizer to get it right. Compilers do optimizations because they don’t trust the programmer to get the order of operations right (rightfully). CPUs do OOO because they don’t trust compilers to get the order of instructions right.
The way I see it is there are 2 variants: 1) make a specific instruction (clutters the instruction set, makes processors who don’t care implement it), 2) rely on processors who care to implement instruction fusion, and those who don’t will do it the slow way.
Either way, it gets implemented in hardware, and processors who care need to make a change in the front end.
Not sure how do I feel about this, amused or horrified.
More like 5%, they just won’t shut up about it and the rest of us silently think they’re morons.
But those 15 requests are then all occurring over a local network (in the data center), not over the Internet.

The true power with GraphQL is that it might not even make all 15 calls because it will entirely depend on what you are querying for. E.g. if you query for a User but not the Orders for that User, then the request to retrieve the orders is simply skipped by GraphQL.

As someone who has spent a decade working with APIs, I 100% agree. The use cases that are a good fit for “RESTful” APIs pale in comparison to those that would benefit from RPC.

What is the point of having your client translate an action to some operation on a document (read or write), only to then have your server try to infer what action was intended by said document operation.

It pains me that this article doesn’t mention any of the trade offs of each suggestion (POST vs PUT vs PATCH and expandable objects, especially) or of using REST APIs generally.
That is to say, all of silicon valley and the FANNGs are digital weapons factories, and YC itself is a weapons company.

Similarly, theres no practical difference between a military and civilian coffee shop, therefore all coffee shops are proper military targets
> I don't bother with these methods and stick to GET and POST.

Most people don't bother with them. If you need caching or want to be able to manipulate params in the browser/link to resources, use GET.

This idea that you need additional verbs for web services is a classic case of in-theory vs in-practice. Introducing non-trivial complication for very tiny benefit is a strange tradeoff.
Off the top of my head, I'd figure Mt. Shasta must have a much larger viewable area than anything in the Bay Area.

Sort of, but TurboTax actually lobbies for that. A lot of large banks don't even want you as a customer in the first place, but the government makes them do it.

Also, everyone here is arguing "the government shouldn't know about my finances", and I feel like "the government should do my taxes for me" conflicts with that?

Agreed, very cool. Makes me think this could someday be done with light in a vacuum or atmosphere with disembodied force instead of styrofoam, combined with a 360° treadmill and video holograms, leading to the development of the first Holodeck.
Like I suggested, use GraphQL to solve this problem. I know front-end teams that run their own GraphQL server to abstract away clumsy APIs and to optimize client/server requests.
Exactly that. You compile down to SPIR-V, then use spirv-cross to generate Metal Shading Language or GLSL. It's clunky and there are some rough edges - these conversions aren't 100% lossless - but it does work. If you play a game on a mac, there's a very good chance this is the compilation strategy used.
Companies aren't informing anecdotal observations. I would have no issue if pickup ownership was regulated.
why Rust in particular?
Do CO2 emissions noticeably affect air quality?

I thought they were of concern for the effect on the global climate, in contrast to NOx, CO or HC emissions.

I would think it's academic anyway, because a vehicle that costs as much as a Ferrari isn't going to be used to commute in. Ten times the CO2 emissions from a vehicle driven 1/10th as much is a wash.

As far as weight goes, it may be huge but the article says it's just barely large enough to be classed with commercial vehicles. Wouldn't you think the biggest commercial trucks do most road damage? There's a widespread factoid that the damage is a very nonlinear function of weight, and so road taxes are allegedly misapportioned.
Don't quote me on this, but I believe that Apple Music (nee iTunes) has used web views for a long time; probably over a decade. The entire thing probably isn't a web view, but my recollection is that the store components were.
Wow. I always thought the argument in favor of using web technologies on the desktop was that cross-platform became easier. And yet here is an example of the most unambiguously single-platform app I can possibly imagine, and under the hood it uses web - and React of all things! Crazy.

Org-babel is a treasure and I much prefer it to Jupyter.

However, while org-babel is feature-rich in obscure ways that I constantly discover, it's still missing some out-of-the-box convenience like automated figure management and running multiple code blocks (like running code blocks to the middle of the page - not all the way through).
What does rust have to do with this?
I would point out that you can only hit that 3x3 pixel area reasonably quickly because you are repeatedly saccading over it and comparing the mouse with it and (very slowly compared to the saccades) adjusting your gross muscular movements to control it. Seems plausible that using just the saccades would be faster by cutting the mouse and your arm out of the loop entirely; you just focus on it, and 'instantly' enough evidence is accumulated about which 3x3 pixel area is the focus of the jittery saccades to pick it.

This might explain why, although I'm not a constant user of Mac, whenever I've had to use it, the UI has felt a little (and in the newer versions, significantly) more sluggish than Windows on the same hardware. It's not hard to see how someone accustomed to that level of responsiveness could find Electron not too different from a "native" app that's actually doing much the same thing.

There is no comparison between public (not state) broadcasters like the Australian ABC or the BBC and propaganda arms of totalitarian governments. It's not simply a matter of bias. RT exists purely to spread Kremlin propaganda, all else is secondary and serves the primary aim (e.g. the odd well-made documentary or show attracting viewership for the main event, e.g. pushing blatant wartime propaganda).

You may agree or disagree with the idea of banning propaganda arms of authoritarian regimes on YouTube, of course. But that's a separate issue from your off-base comparison.
The headline isn't technically wrong but it's a tiny bit misleading because the use of web views is limited to a small number of iCloud account screens. These aren't really "system" preferences so much as Apple cloud service settings which have been wedged into System Preferences.

(And where it is used, it's doing the barest minimum. The preference window itself, the top bar, and the iCloud sidebar are all still native UI.)
I missed the /s ?
Not just that but due to their search for independence from Google they are increasingly relying on their own ads as well, like on the New Tabs screen :(

A far better way would be a carbon / pollution tax. The weight of the vehicle is just a proxy for emissions. Tax emissions directly instead.
This post is talking mostly about CSS and it shows a document object model tree. JavaScript is also used, given that he mentions React.

Among these options, it seems that Rust is most similar to JavaScript. But this whole article would be the same if React was written with Rust instead.

So what is the broken part of GUI development, and why is Rust positioned to fix it? As I see it, not much would change if we used Rust instead of JavaScript, except that it could be harder to diagnose when ReactInRust is being used.
How long before some of those artillery pieces are captured and turned on their erstwhile comrades? The Ukrainians have already been quite successful capturing Russian equipment, and the more they seize the easier it becomes to seize more. Putting more equipment into the theater without adequate personnel and logistical support (which the Russians don't seem to have) won't help at all militarily, and indiscriminate bombardment will only worsen their diplomatic/economic situation. That's why Putin has refrained so far - not some imaginary respect for human life or humanitarian norms that he simply doesn't have.
Probably because the devs want to do something and have no properly useful tools available to them, so they use something out of convenience.

It feels a bit tacky to me that Apple would use something a bit janky, it points at a bit of a gap in tooling.
As it turns out, React / CSS / the document-object-model are popular for more reasons than “it works on different computers.” Who knew!

> Security and usability are often in tension - if we're going to improve usability, our proposed changes also need to improve security, or they're dead on arrival.

I'd actually say it's the other way around. One of my favorite quote related to that is "security at the expense of usability is at the expense of security". If you force users to rotate passwords, they'll use some form of continuous passwords and/or stick them with notes to their monitors. If you'd need to sign in all the time, users will be less careful and choose easier passwords. If it takes 20 seconds to authenticate at the front door, it will only take a few days until someone puts a brick there to keep it open. To improve security, you'll absolutely need to consider the UX; improving the UX while not caring about security, OTOH, works quite well in my experience (until it blows up in your face, which might be years away or even a moral hazard).
Looks like it's Apple's Internet offerings, which is a growing number of services which makes perfect sense to write them inside a server updatable webview.
Most modern cars, sure, but I wouldn't feel the same about a lifted truck with 36" mud terrain tires as mentioned in that thread. In a stock solid axle pickup, you somewhat frequently encounter what is referred to as a "death wobble" where the whole vehicle shakes, even at moderate speeds. Suspensions in full size trucks are commonly using 1950's era tech, not modern double wishbone or multilink setups that many cars have. This ignores that when you get into triple digit speeds, even small things like wheel balancing can make a huge difference for safety and performance (ignoring speed rating of tires). Most of the people commenting in that thread seemed to have lifted trucks (ignoring body vs suspension lifts or that they took cheap route to do so, e.g. grade 5 vs 8 hardware), so they are already changing things like center of gravity, aero and handling.
The problem is that GDPR didn't go far enough.

They should have added a provision that if the user has Do Not Track turned on, the site may not present a cookie barrier and may not serve any cookies except essential ones. I know many browsers have removed DNT but they sure would bring it back in a heartbeat if it actually did anything.

re: four M1 variants, the clever thing is that from a certain perspective, they've only designed two. It's just that one of those two (M1 Max) was designed such that it could be scaled down down to M1 Pro and up to M1 Ultra.

On scaling down, they simply designed and laid out M1 Max such that half the GPU cores, memory controllers, and media encoders were divisible from the rest of the chip, with the interface between the two a clean, straight cut line. To make M1 Pro masks, they likely just took the M1 Max mask artwork, cropped it, and did minor cleanup on the cropped edge to terminate all the dangling connections.

To make M1 Ultra, they just "glue" two M1 Max die together with advanced packaging and interconnect technology. Every M1 Max ships with an unused die-to-die interconnect block along one edge of the chip.
I can see this as a general-purpose computing device, but what I really want this for is simulation gaming. I could make a new instrument panel for every rocket I build in Kerbal Space Program. A dedicated selection of dials and toggles for every application I use. A different set of gauges and sliders for every plane in DCS! It'd be great!
You are comparing apples to oranges. Fortran I developed in 1950s was 23K instructions. That was without fancy IDE and after spending 18 person years to develop. So, relatively, TP was obviously a very very tight code. Another comparison is GW Basic which was 80KB and so more than 2X in siz even though Basic is simpler language.

What bugs me is that even though vast majority of work is now outsourced to OS and external libraries and tremendous advances are made in compilation tech, our generated binary sizes are no where close to hand coded assembly. I mean not even close. For example, hello world manual assembly should take about 142 bytes. However, even assembler will spit out whooping 9KB binary for hello world in assembly language! Hello world in C will cost you a binary size of mind numbing 2000KB. https://drewdevault.com/2020/01/04/Slow.html

So put this perspective.
I wasn't surprised to see the Family Sharing pane in the first screenshot. It's easily the most janky part of System Preferences that I've had to struggle with:

- Loading indicators for several seconds when switching between categories in the left sidebar, on a very decent internet connection.

- Janky animations and transitions when opening modals, like clicking the "Details..." button on a family member.

- Within the "Invite people to your family" modal, clicking "Not Now" causes the "Invite People" button (the default, highlighted action) to blink before the modal closes.

Yes while these are absolutely nitpicks, I feel that Apple has lost some of the attention to detail that set them apart.
Not really. There is a webview for certain account related stuff that gets loaded from a web page which happens to be a React app. Most other settings are native code and not loaded from a remote URL. Completely misleading post/title.
That query is biased to begin with.
Let’s say I want to understand the flat earth arguments. Should the search engine fill my feed with “earth is not flat” when I’m trying to search for “proof that earth is flat”. This is different from searching “is earth flat” which is an attempt to discover the truth.

Your claim that the search engine should show results which indicate that there was no systematic election fraud, is a wishful thinking that you don’t want people to believe in it, not a good decision making regarding what search engines should display.
I dont think nato has deployed such advanced sensors to east europe. At the end of the day its those countries responsibility to be the first line of defence, and i am afraid their military looks much like russia’s, but western equipment. If i am wrong, which I hope i am, then it would be clever to not shoot it down as to not reveal turret locations.
When you game the search engine by abusing SEO to artificially put your content above the others, then the content isn't unbiased either.

You either do something about it to keep a fair balance, or the signal gets drowned in noise.
> In fact, a confusing banner that makes you play a minigame to get the respect for your personal information that you have a legal right to (in the EU) is explicitly disallowed.

It is. So are the ones defaulting to "yes". And the ones where there is just a popup telling the user to install some blocker in their browser without giving them a choice (like https://npr.org ). Or telling them to take a subscription if they don't want to be tracked.

All these things are illegal but unfortunately they are not enforced.
It's like three webviews in the system preferences app.

So probably not.

Are you talking about the MacOS System Preferences app, which has probably been around since Macs switched to Intel, or about React? Either could fit that description.

Maybe. Though this reminds me of people trying to design a horseless carriage:

It’s hard for me to imagine how it isn’t the first one.

Nothing is really priced in the Bitcoin’s valuation except risk on / risk off. It’s a pure play on appetite for risk assets and that’s about it.

People say it’s an inflation hedge but it drops on big inflation prints. It has super tight correlation with hyper growth tech stocks. It makes big moves sometimes when Elon tweets, but otherwise it’s mostly just following appetite for risk.
> Failure leads to weird redirects for which you can't really fall back to a login prompt because the auth happens on TLS level and a token in HTTP can't replace that.

That's not true. nginx, for example, let's you return a custom response, which can easily be a 302 to the login page.

But I agree with all other points. On a sidenote, there's also the great option of using a CA for your client certificates while still using a normal CA for your https certificate - you don't have the worry of installing a root certificate on all clients and still have a nice, valid https connection in the browser. Unfortunately, hardly any tutorials pointed this out and used their own CA for everything instead.

So in effect, yes. Most people have already lost. The rest of us are on the way there.

Forscan (Ford and Mazda) is a software you could try, assuming you have a cable like that one[1]. The free version is be able to read, reset and run diagnostic but it cannot change the car configuration. The full version can change the car configuration but you can't buy licenses for because it come from Russia.

There are some boutique companies, and even some oems [2] that provide software to retune your engine but I have no experience, nor desire, to do that kind of tinkering.

It surprises many colleagues and friends that I still use an iPod Video from 2005-6.

Life without adverts, week-long battery life, instant track skipping, ratings, playlists (and OTG playlists) make the music experience better than any streaming services, which are really just radio replacements.

Embedded systems might not be "cool" any more, but they're repairable, and have other features too (iPod notes, games, contacts, calendar), and a thriving mod firmware scene (iPodLinux and Rockbox).

There is an alternative, if you'd like to come to the hardware side :)
Great book, very enjoyable. The part with the sea lion has made me respect those animals a lot hah.
that there should be some standard set of instructions that compilers should emit for that special case, and the instruction decoder on high end CPUs should be magic enough to detect the sequence and do optimal things (fused instructions?)

Detecting a long fixed sequence of instructions and "compressing" them into one internal operation seems like it would require a lot of fetch bandwidth and/or a really wide decoder. x86 has had macro-fusion since Core Solo/Duo.
