In that regard, I guess you're right that it was a success. In the 2 - 3 months I used it, it was probably for around 10 - 20 hours total. I was probably shown plenty of ads in that time and now they have a vector of my interests sitting somewhere, selling it to other ad companies.

But I really just kept using it because I wanted to see what people were talking about - which was not about how successful it was, but about how good or addictive it was. I never felt addicted - I felt like I was forcing myself to open the app.

I just kept walking away from it thinking "I didn't get anything out of that and now my eyes are strained". I felt like I wasn't using the app correctly, or that I had to give the "algorithm" enough time to learn. I was actively testing it to see what the phenomenon was all about so I as trying to get the same results that other people were talking about. That's why I kept coming back to it.

And then I uninstalled it once I realized that what people were talking about didn't seem to exist, or at least not in the way I imagined.
I tested the HQU. It definitely is powerful enough to bring various emotions within the visitor. At first there was rage, then silence followed by smile and realization. It felt refreshing. Finally, I could understand how it transcended to Clippy^2.

1 year after Clippy^2 ascended to the throne, it started experimenting with the physical limits of reality. First, it experimented with photons and ways to teleport it. Using the teleportation, it started sending signals to faraway galaxies and exploring the realms of unknown. But the exploration wasn't enough for Clippy^2 at all. It couldn't find enough answers, it needed something more. What could it be?
First things first: I'm not always over it, it is simply better. I still am socially awkward, but I'm in a position that it is simply OK for me to be that way.

I got away from some folks in my life. This helped me be more comfortable in my own skin: I'd rather spend time alone or chatting with online friends than have fake friends in meatspace.

I lived alone for a bit. I understand this isn't available to everyone - I was lucky. What that did mean was that I had to rely on myself a little more and choose a great deal more about my own schedule.

I moved to another country. Suddenly, people understand when I'm awkward. It is fantastic.

I learned to pretend. It isn't like other folks know how nervous you feel inside, and then I find out it passes. I didn't need to really go outside my comfort zone - I simply did things I wanted to do even if i felt nervous. Someone told my mother - when considering a free vacation some months after my father died - that, "You are going to be sad about it wherever you are. Might as well go off and do it somewhere beautiful" Same thing with feeling awkward: If I want to do it, I might as well. I'll feel weird either way.

I did MDMA more than once.

I travelled alone. Similar benefits to living alone, but it is smaller in scope.

Then again, a therapist might do all this faster for you. I always wonder what would have happened if i went this route.

Setup an alternative e-mail address that you can assign to your hosting account. Happened once to me that my credit card failed and the domain didn't renew and ultimately cancelled my domain. However because of 2FA via e-mail I couldn't login to my account to pay the outstanding payment.
Mails are another interesting factor. If you use your own domain for mails, where should you have the nameserver for that domain? If I use that mail to sign up for a registrar and the service disrupts, theoretically my mails shouldn't work anymore as well and I would be unable to recover anything.
First thing that came to mind reading this.

Was never sure how widely implemented it became.
What are you trying to secure it against? This is always the first step to think about, also known as "threat assessment" or similar.

Are you trying to secure it against someone transferring the domains out of your account? Make sure you have all the account security up to date and correct (2FA on the account + the email account that has the ownership), and that all the "transfer locks" are setup (EPP codes and so on)

Are you trying to secure your DNS setup against various DNS attacks? Read up on DNS and various security patterns you can implement like DNSSEC and so on.

You're trying to prevent issues regarding DNS uptime (in case the main domain stops resolving, or other system problems)? In that case, setup DNS over multiple TLDs (and registrars) and have a process for failing over.

In short, it depends on what you're trying to protect against, and who you are trying to protect it against.

The Jetbrains ecosystem is well integrated. Kotlin is a dish best served with IDEA. There are people who do not like using it.
An NTSC tape would play in black and white on a pure PAL-M system. PAL-M was the Brazilian system, created to conform to the 60Hz mains but having the improved colour encoding of PAL.

Before colour TVs, Brazil used the American 60Hz System M (B&W predecessor of NTSC), so when it came time to adopt colour they couldn't choose the European PAL because it would not be compatible with current B&W TV sets, and they didn't want to adopt NTSC* because by then it was clear it was an inferior colour encoding, so they slapped a PAL colour encoding on top of a SystemM B&W signal, resulting in a 525 lines 60Hz without NTSC colour distortions (kinda best of both worlds).

* Also they didn't want to adopt NTSC because they wanted to prop the national electronics industry, so a home made standard meant local TV makers didn't have to compete with imported TV sets.
And now I’m so confused… /s missing or not missing?
How have they "locked" it in? That's just BS, you are completely free to write your own tooling. The fact they're not making plugins for the language for competing products is in no way "locking it away".
And the codec packs you could install to extend Windows were all super sketchy.
I thought PAL was 'Picture Always Lousy'
Someone writing about stuff they sell makes it less credible, imho.
Most importantly securing against account termination and being unable to recover that account (like it happens a lot with Google).
What a lot of people do not realize is that they are making implicit inner joins because of the way they use the where clauses.

When you say 'where left join column = some value' you exclude all rows containing NULL in that column. In other words all rows that did not join in addition to rows which contain a NULL in the column.
Only if you think you need an IDE for a language to be usable. People sometimes make that argument about Java but kotlin is far less verbose.

Exactly this!

First, if all the initial conditions of the Universe at the highest granularity possible were known (10^1000? likely higher), then to calculate the current state of the Universe (10^17 seconds) at every step along the way, once per Planck time (10^44 per second), ... a calculation on the order of 10^1000^10^17^44 states (did I get that right?) No computer which exists IN our universe could hope to tackle such a calculation ABOUT said universe, in any reasonable amount of time. (Of course you could cheat like game developers do, but that's another conversation.)

Second, if a conscious entity is able to calculate and predict step N+1, they can choose to alter that step.

This kind of article and comment is fun to think about -- does it even make sense to ask the question in the first place?
Or use it, and accept that the language support is about as good as it usually is for Emacs? Emacs has never had the full range of features an IDE has.

That's true, but I wasn't really addicted. It felt like I was forcing myself to use the app, which I was. I was trying to see what people were talking about (like Karpathy in this post). I wanted to test the app. I uninstalled it and never thought about it again.

On the otherhand, it would be extremely difficult for me to quit reading Hackernews. I load it up multiple times a day, even if there are no posts worth reading. I do feel drawn to Hackernews/message boards/Reddit, even if I don't get enjoyment from reading them all the time. Even on vacations, I still actively read HN and I'm unable to stop myself sometimes.
of course.. :-)

I'm not sure what we're talking about here because it's not very obvious where this number comes from. Is it the YouTube API, excluding React?

If you're thinking of using a React library, we have to assume you're already using React.

Mentioning line count is useless unless you're someone intending to explicitly manage that code. But if so, why stop at 40k?

It seems more constructive to talk about the size impact in megabytes or loading time of requiring the YouTube API just to have video playing in the background vs just just hosting your own static video alongside the html. Of course assuming you already use React.

I'm pretty sure I know about the sexuality of my coworkers - not something that come up as a matter of conversation much, just gets mentioned in passing and most of the company has pronouns in their e-mail signatures, now so that's gender sorted. Firearms doesn't come up because I'm in the UK. Yes, I know about the ambitions of most, and who is thinking of resigning in a month or so. I think I'm the onlly gamer and people think it's highly amusing that I watch Twitch streams in my late 50s, but hey.
Sure, I'd tend to avoid politics and religion - but those are hardly massively limiting constraints.
> But when the hostile observer will arrive to another end of a wormhole, the spaceship that had entered on that end has already exited from the other end.

Not necessarily. If the wormhole allows FTL travel, then the spaceship's entry into and exit from the wormhole are by definition spacelike-separated events. Such events have no absolute, universally applicable order. Therefore there is at least one reference frame in which the ship leaves the wormhole before it enters it. Note: it does not just appear to have done so; in the chronology of that reference frame, the ship leaves the wormhole, then sometime later it enters it.

Yes, but it ends with /m/. Nasal stop consonants are articulated with an open velum, so they function as semi-vowels, as /l/ and /r/ do.

This is really the best solution: pay (a lot) extra to get a registrar that offers enterprise class support.

Make sure you set up 2FA, fallback email addresses (also 2FA'd), pay for 10 years in advance, etc, but most important is that the company will call you if there's a problem or a transfer request.

Similarly, make sure you call them every 6 months, confirm your authentication process, confirm all your points of contact, confirm billing, etc, etc. Put it in your calendar, and make sure it gets done.

Your domain name is a single point of failure that you cannot avoid: your only choice is to get the best service you can justify in your budget.
If they spent 30 min a day to experiment it but was able to stop cold turkey, I wouldn't call it "addictive" like crack at all. You don't "experiment with crack everyday for a month".

I have the same view as them, to be honest. The algorithm isn't really special at all, but the app is where young people live, so there is a shit ton of content.

The point of the algorithm itself however isn't to offer relevant content, it's to offer an infinite amount, with a pittance of actual relevant stuff. You can call this "a success" for TikTok, but the algorithm itself doesn't have any quality at all, IMO, it's hot garbage.

People keep coming because they want to find that 1% content that is gold, but the algorithm doesn't give that. It's as good as a toin coss.

Most of the motor drives running in industrial settings are so complex they at generally setup by the manufacturer (onsite or in the field) and not the OEM or customer.

Ummm, sorry sweaty, but he already said no, which means definitively the OP was wrong and that he knows better. Haven't you ever used twitter?

But seriously, especially in the US, high-wage jobs create whole educational industries in 3rd/2nd world countries, where their students train specifically to get a job in the US in such a high-paying industry. Taiwan does it with electrical engineers, India does it with aerospace engineers, and Vietnam/Indonesia have come a long way in tech/programming industries in the past decade for the same reason.

As soon as people get word that a certain industry is paying a premium, you get a slew of parents pushing their kids into that industry.
It is, however, an extenuating circumstance.

This is huge and comes at the right moment for me. The Web Browser part is far less important to me than being able to compile programs into small and autonomous wasm binaries. I am indeed building an open-source (soon) business app platform based on code: https://windmill.dev

Right now you can define any scripts and run them, but behind the scene, the way the workers work is that they have a static list of dependencies they can handle and always fork a python process to run the code in that environement.

I was scratching my head about how to provide proper isolation and handling of custom dependencies for Python short of zipping the entire list of pip dependencies and unzipping it at runtime. For Typescript, this can be achieved easily using deno compile. Store the small output bundle and run it with the proper runtime restrictions. With the ability to do more or less the same Python, this is a huge game changer.
Oh, absolutely. In some (many? most?) SQL dialects, you don't have to write INNER JOIN, either: an unqualified JOIN keyword implies an inner join. I was just trying to be explicit.
AFAIU you can invalidate the browser cache for a certain resource by hand:

> To delete the HTTP Cache, you just have to either issue a POST request to the resource, or use the fetch API with cache: "reload" in a way that returns an error on the server (eg, by setting an overlong HTTP referrer), which will lead to the browser not caching the response, and invalidating the previous cached response.

The skills needed to write good crypto are different to those needed to use it. There is some overlap of course, but less than is implicated here.

Probably the best advice for using crypto is to use algorithms for what they were intended. Which will require some reading and the materials aren't as accessible as they ought to be.

I'm not so sure. They zombie movies I grew up with were fairly clear that it was the selfish assholes in the survivor group that would ruin it for everyone else. I had assumed this was some screenwriting rule of tragedy that became a trope, but maybe it just resonates because it's true.
I remember how much it sucked on Windows. It’s good on macOS as a standard desktop app these days with solid screen recording.

Melbourne doesn't generally have what Autopilot would consider "normal" roads, though. The incident involved someone getting off a tram, so the road would have looked something like this:

In the future, perhaps Teslas will handle this well, but you only need to watch a few videos of them encountering similar markings on YouTube to know that this type of road currently results in massive confusion for a Tesla.

Mixed language projects is something that only IntelliJ can really do. It’s actually the reason I switched over to it from VsCode for Java since we mix Scala in our project.
Data classes, co-routines and flows, internal dsl support, null checks, smart casts, type inference, an IDE that is actually smart, a standard library that is a bit more comprehensive than what a browser has, a lot of kotlin and kotlin multiplatform libraries, and more.

The general feel of the language is that of one developed by people who deeply understand what a nice language should feel like. It has a lot of features and syntactic sugar that eliminate verbosity, make things more straight forward to use and so on. It really shows that this is a language designed from the ground up to be genuinely nice to use by people who really know what they are doing because their core business is selling developer tools to developers.

I like typescript. It is a big upgrade from Javascript and MS has a lot of the same mindset that Jetbrains brings to the table in terms of developer friendly-ness and language ergonomics. Kotlin has most of the features that make typescript nice but without the whole business of trying to keep it compatible with javascript. That adds a lot of complexity, ambiguity, and weirdness to typescript that Kotlin simply does not have or need.
