How to start learning code for non-coder?
I'm a digital marketer who want to learn more about code, especially front-end that can support my career. Can anyone give me a suggestion that what I should first start with? Which book or which resource I can learn from for a newbie like me.
I also work with website, GTM and database so I think I need to learn more about PHP, mySQL... Any recommend what I should learn or focus?
While this is technology is beautiful, I think it would be easier to visualize how these products work by looking at old-fashioned still pictures of their disassembled parts.
Sounds like there's a market for scanofthemonth.comofthemonth.com
I like the way you think, and I do believe my original comment has spawned decent discussion
Education. Not turning users into even more idiotic helpless creatures.
I just disabled all of that. No Chromium browser is my main browser but when I need one, Brave seems like the best option.

If you were to pick between Brave, Vivaldi and I dunno, maybe Edge, just for when you need Chrome-compatibility and pretty much no other reason, which one would you pick and why?
Your browser can do this too. So what?

Exactly right. The tech and advertising industries and their allies want weak federal regulations (with no private right of action, and lots of exemptions) that pre-empt stronger state laws. One way to get there is to get multiple states to pass roughly-similar weak regulations and then argue that there's "consensus" so might as well make it a federal standard.

So, an Amazon lobbyist gave the version they were trying to get passed in Washington to a Virgnia state legislator who introduced it there and (since Amazon had just invested a zillion dollars in Virgina) they whisked it through. Then they used that as the basis for Colorado's law. This year when they tried to pass it again in Washington one of the arguments was "it aligns with other states". Sigh.

So buy one with those features, otherwise, you're just an old man yelling at clouds.
You're right, you win. Congratulations!
The material you’re taking about, plastic, is made from carbon stored inside of the Earth. If we can reliably get it back in the Earth, e.g. via landfill, then I don’t see a huge issue with it. Also, wood was a forever material prior to the evolution of white rot.
You're a drop of water in the ocean. Protect the shit that matters and stop worrying about apps "stealing" your contacts or whatever.
Yeah, I've run into this issue with Flatpak & Kate. (I think it was specifically the Flathub Kate Flatpak that was pulled?)

FWIW I was recently able to get a "passable" but not ideal Rust/LSP/Rust-Analyzer/Cargo setup mostly functional via use of the kate build plugin and e.g `flatpak-spawn --host cargo build`...

...and... `flatpak-spawn --host cargo run | sed --unbuffered
's/\x1b\[[0-9;]*m//g'`.

Excuse the cough. :D (It was necessary to remove the ANSI colour codes produced by some logging library the project used.)

(My preference would be to use AppImage but unfortunately recent Kate AppImage versions have a hang-on exit bug.)
start by learning basics of programming, learn terminologies and so on, I did this by watching tutorial on YouTube, plenty of free resources out there. then start building projects, do whatever you want, you can start with basic stuff like a calculator, journal, blogs, little game etc, then try something challenging, like a really beautiful and complex UI/UX if you want to focus on front end.
The passenger checkpoint devices are projection imaging, but they do use CT (with rotating source/detector, just like a medical CT) for checked bags. https://www.envimet.com/en/product/examiner-xlb/
`npm unpublish @your-package/name@vx.x.x` is what removes it, if I remember correctly, though yeah thats from the CLI.
Some people do.

1. Reduce plastic consumption as much as you can.
2. Use reusable bags
3. Choose packaging that contains less plastic. This is truly horrible in the US. Apple sauce containers for kids have so much unnecessary plastic. I mean the ones with the fancy caps that are big only to appeal to kids.

And to reduce your carbon footprint further - controversial point incoming - reduce or stop eating meat.

“But, aren’t you using a smartphone? Do you not buy X? Do you not use X? Do you drive? Do you travel? …
All your points are therefore invalid“

When I’m hungry and someone offers a slice of pizza I don’t say no if I can’t have the entire pie. I take the slice. Start with a step today then take another one tomorrow.

Eventually there will be enough of us that we opt to tax companies at the source for using plastics unnecessarily or having a ridiculous carbon footprint. And May be we can have effective carbon capture technologies and better ways to deal with plastic.
You really want infrastructure to become political in the sense of the service that's actually provided? As an example, I heavily disagree with the focus on car infrastructure and the extreme amount of billions I consider largely misallocated. Does that give me the right to inject my politics into traffic signaling software? The possibilities for that are endless and almost all of them are bad. These areas must not be political to prevent spirals of politicisation (remember, if this becomes the norm then it'd justify your political enemies doing the exact same thing). As far as I am aware, engineers do not inject politics into bridges or rail infrastructure or anything else, and though they do have codes of conduct and legal responsibility for what they sign off on that's not so much political as it is discouraging negligence.

Nothing in my position is against engineers having political opinions, or campaigning for what they want, or resigning or whatever. I just think that that's not appropriate in terms of the actual service they concretely provide to society during their employment.
ah, understood -- thank you for the clarification!
Watch them and find out? He explains why it takes so much energy to boil and condense water, calculates out and explains how many Joules to condense a litre of water, how long that would take for various solar panel sizes, compares the solar-water-collector against mains powered dehumidifiers, compares the solar collectors against using the same size panel as a rainwater catcher in different environments, compares it against the price and time to get 10,000 litres of water in a tanker and drive it a thousand kilometers, talks about the product's claimed size, isntallation cost or use cases and how they don't make sense.

I see his style is divisive, but I don't think they are cursory, at least the two I linked; he's clearly put hours of time into making them, it's not just him talking and laughing recorded in 20 minutes.

Why would you ever need a launcher for a TUI? If it's in your $PATH isn't that all that's required?
That's the thing, people actually think their data matters. It doesn't. Your a point in a multi billion point multimillion dimensional cloud. Your data doesn't matter. Yeah, data farms can glean data trends from populations, but there's infinite ways to do this and most aren't actually concerned about who "you" are, but what "people" are doing. In short, you're not that important, you're not being individually spied on, get over yourself. You're uninteresting as fuck.
Curious if this is already done or will come in the future: will Flickr start selling public photos of the free accounts as stock photos? The move to restrict private photos to 50 for free accounts seems to suggest that such a move could happen as monetizing Flickr becomes more and more difficult.
That numbness is nerve damage. Sometimes you get numb, sometimes you get permanent cronic pain, and sometimes both depending on the day. More common than people might think with any sort of surgery. I had some damage that lasted about 6 years where it would be numb and then randomly about once a month I'd get a stabbing pain for like 3 seconds.

Does anyone actually have normal users run Python programs? I thought programming was intended so that users could run your programs. But if a regular non-programming user wants to use a Python program, they need a whole tutorial on how to install and run it.

Put everything in the standard library, or nothing at all, it doesn't really matter. Either way you still have to set up a custom environment and install a bunch of extra stuff and learn "how to run Python programs".

Absolutely right, library-level permission systems are desperately needed, just like what Apple did with apps in iOS.

The unfortunate thing is that these features aren’t at the OS level, and we need a separate runtime to do these kinds of things. The current widely used OS kernels (Windows, Linux) don’t give granular permissions that well, for example in Linux we either have all or nothing (root vs user). I’ve heard that OpenBSD has a system to constrain for each program what syscalls you can make, and Serenity is also following this model (https://awesomekling.github.io/pledge-and-unveil-in-Serenity...).
“Picked out” is an odd way to say “the platform that they make”

A bunch of the power saving is also from the OS shutting things down quickly and moving everything to low power states, linux has not always been the best at that. Which does make sense given that the primary usage is still things like data centers where the primary purpose is having everything go as fast as possible essentially all the time.
So because you don't take photos in your "art" "class", photos aren't art.

Fuck. Can't argue with that.
To be blunt your argument for polluting our environment doesn't feel like it's in good faith when you blame wood for being a pollutant until a fungus showed up hundreds of millions of years ago. I absolutely loathe the term "whataboutism" but this seems like a real example - "what about the fact that wood was a pollutant hundreds of millions of years ago? We should be able to dump plastic now".
> Also the code completions are not clickable with a mouse, and using the "down" key also doesn't do anything.

Yeah, unfortunately it seems like there's a (possibly recently introduced?) bug that appears to break arrow-key/list interactions.

I was able to get code completion & command palettes to work by supplying a custom keymap I posted here: https://github.com/lapce/lapce/issues/133#issuecomment-10715...

My impression is that the non-modal keymap isn't as regularly updated given the developer's preference for modal interaction. I'm happy enough I can at least still edit the keymap to workaround the issue. :D
Nope. You can certainly do that; but “the right way” is to add your sources and compile them (as necessary) during the image build; and then treat the container as an “application”, not as an “environment”. This is how any sane production setup works, and you get a lot of benefits using it during development (such as reproducible builds and only one pre-req for a dev setup: Docker). If you’re just volume-mounting your code into the container, all Docker is providing is a disposable runtime environment. Which is handy for some things, but the general idea is to end up with a fully containerized program that you can tag, push to a registry; and pull to your production environment.
NetSurf GTK and w3m are still on the list for me
I think photographs can make an effort to convey the perceived, visual reality of a moment. It is still not real, and it is still not "objective" -- there is no absolute objective. But it is a particular purpose that is more unique to photography and videography than most media. And it is very different from most art, where conveying visual reality is rarely considered important.

Of course this is not the only valid use for photographs, but it is a genre of photography that is a not insignificant part of the whole discipline, both in terms of production and consumption.
Starting Is the Half of Success
Does it really get the same great battery life of the M1 running MacOS? In the case of my dell XPS laptop, for example, it gets pretty good battery life if I use the windows 10 OS that it shipped with, but when I run Ubuntu, the battery life is horrible.
When I started learning photography years ago, my genre was street photography. It was practical, no fancy equipment needed, don't have to go far away. You just go out and start shooting. I was interested in documentary work, trying to capture truth "as objective as possible"

Then I found the works of Ansel Adams, the Westons (Edward, Brett), Aaron Siskind, Hiroshi Sugimoto, etc. Painters like René Magritte and Mark Rothko are also big inspirations. I conclude "making images" for me is far more interesting than "taking images".
There are severe market stability issues associated with people gravitating towards <1 year holdings. The cap gains rate exists partially to encourage long-ish holdings.

I use MySQL (and increasingly, MariaDB) because I prefer the tooling. I use software like PHPMyAdmin and mycli, and when I need to use Postgres or MSSQL the tools available do not live up to the same high standards.

This is literally addressed verbatim by the article, and I quote:

"One can always devise new mathematical constructs that behave in all the same ways as complex numbers even though they’re called something else."

It's honestly as if people are just jumping to comment on the title of the article without actually reading it. The article is fundamentally about how trying to replace complex numbers by some real valued representation of them, for example using a vector of real numbers, or a matrix of real numbers, doesn't work due to the compounding of dimensions. The two examples they give where using pairs of real numbers fails is multiparticle states and a spin 1/2 qubit.

At any rate, there's no point rehashing the article here, since it's all written in a fairly straight forward manner. It's just frustrating reading so many people write the same trivial comment dismissing the article when the article is written precisely to demonstrate why these simplistic dismissals fail.
Precisely. Any corporate lawyer reading this thread is probably hoping none of the engineers in their company think this way.

In my old company we were told to perform competitor analysis only through publicly available information - blogs, marketing announcements, videos, ads, etc. No creating a free account to poke around. I often wondered what happened in the past to have this rule.
Seems like it's not in anyone's interests for company shares to be heritable. How many companies have been burned to the ground because someone inherited them and had no idea how to run such a company?

Is there any movement to force owners to liquidate their shares upon their death? I'm surely not the first one to think of something like this.

Do you believe that there are moral principles that apply universally? If so, I’m interested in hearing a consistent set that makes Russia invading a country wrong but it’s ok when the USA does it.

Sadly I think most people’s moral reasoning here is TV man says Russia is the bad guys and USA is the good guys. Bad guys always bad good guys always good.
I do wonder how the eventual criminal justice case is going to work out.

This package won't appear on your computer by magic, you have to tell NPM to fetch it somehow. Now, the goal was obviously destructive, but the code execution and initiation of the payload was explicitly started by the user.

Further complicating matters is that the actual crime, the destruction of data and the installation of the software in case of destructive behaviour, all happens overseas, in Russian jurisdiction. The USA isn't going to extradite this guy any time soon in the current political climate and if the checks all work well, no destructive code is actually executed on computers within the USA.

I'm sure prosecutors will find a way to get the guy convicted, after all, they managed to abduct Kim Dotcom to the USA at the request of the copyright lobby, but it's going to be an interesting case.
The way they described private photos as 'non-public photos' surprised me. I had to really re-read the paragraph to get at what they're going for.

From what I understand, free users now only get to store 50 photos. Any more, and they're at risk of being deleted. I've been with Flickr since 2006-2007; this is an extremely surprising move.
What are you supposed to use instead of urllib? Seems like an oversight to write all about how you considered removing it without saying whether there is a replacement.
>I'm not sure what we're supposed to learn from it.

That just verifying the identity of a software author isn't sufficient to ensure the software is safe. We need to build our software such that the damage that can be done by a malicious actor in control of one component is isolated to that component. There's still some danger from malicious code even in that case, but it's far from the "total system takeover" that any malicious node library can do now.

I'm not convinced this is even a problem that needs to be solved.

If companies inevitable self-destruct from short-term management, that creates space for new companies to emerge with new approaches. Sure, there will be some noise/churn but overall I think it makes the overall ecosystem stronger.

The 1,000-year monopoly is a terrifying idea.
Thanks, though my read is that this is not just pharma, but applies to numerous fields. Say, o-chem, semiconductors, nanoparticles, and more.
I don't suppose there's a web page / article / etc that spells some of this out, is there?

When I try searching for "golang" and "limbo X" (where X = history, or comparison, or..., or...) it looks like the popularity of golang swamps any pages that might compare Go and Limbo.
Strange because x2go performs better than anything else. Though you have to set the "Connection" settings correctly for your use. Setting for too low a bandwidth is just as bad as too high. "WAN" with "256-jpeg" works pretty well for me.
The resolution of modern displays is such that you want specialized hardware doing the work. Modern font rendering engines run on GPUs as well now, because the resolution increases faster than single threaded speed.

GPUs are also more power efficient at many of these things, because while they use more power while running they get done sufficiently quickly that they end up ahead. That’s before you include the power savings from rapidly dropping the power mode.

Note that this isn’t specific to AS, or even arm in general: every laptop wants to get to low power as fast as possible, because constant low-ish power is much worse than brief spikes that you can disable power between.
> That’s because none of us truly want to give up what we have gained.

You'll note that the operative word "terror" isn't present in "politically-motivated destruction of property."

Terrorism means something specific: it means inflicting terror as an end in itself.
What does PHPMyAdmin offer over, say, Postico? I avoid MySQL because of its history of being "a bit of a mess" and its lack of tooling.
There’s a release available in the store[0]. It’s been working well.

I agree. I think it is visually awesome but that's about it.
Ask HN: Where to Find Interesting People?
Where do you go to meet interesting people to talk to? I find it's difficult to find the right mixture of:

a) A setting where it's acceptable to strike up a conversation with a stranger

b) A place not already geared towards a different purpose (i.e. a bar for hookups)

c) Filled with -- for lack of a better phrase -- people who are uninteresting to talk to. By that I mean people who aren't looking to chat, all conform to a very rote / traditional lifestyle, or generally aren't great conversationalists.
I do find the documentation/packaging rather unclear. For example the website mentions an IDE, but when you download it, there is no IDE in the downloaded package(thats what I remember). Exactly details I'm not remembering, but the Java version documentation was rather unclear, had to work with a bit before understanding how it worked.

Actually could not figure out how to parse a binary file/stream containing heterogeneous binary structures from reading the docs. I suppose it is possible?

> city streets, at lower speeds, has higher accident and fatality rates

> people would eschew the city streets for the freeways.

This is also the argument against HOV lanes or paid left lanes. Adding more congestion to highways (by restricting lanes) pushes more people towards surface streets, which, as you state, are less safe. Highways have lots of non-fatal accidents, while surface streets with lights and 4-ways tend to cause t-bones, head-ons, and have pedestrians and bikers around.
