I don't find these arguments persuasive. My point was that if I want wiki, ticketing etc., I can get it right now on an industry standard platform. Yes, I get that they embed it in the software itself. So what? Suppose someone said "our new operating system includes a web browser". But I already have a web browser? "Yes, but we embed it in the kernel itself!" Why would that be compelling?

The other argument, that this is needed for offline use, is more meaningful. I don't personally think this is a big enough deal to be the USP. But sure, for some people it may be.
You think AI is impossible or its impossible for AI to improve itself?
I agree. This is the issue. Now when I look for something I have to use FB because all the sellers have moved there because all the buyers have moved there. It is a great market in that regard as it is hard to turn that flywheel back. But it sucks for consumers.

I subscribe to debian and openbsd security advisory email lists, which works for me generally to know what is going on in the space(s) I care more about:

https://lists.debian.org/debian-security-announce/ (this one covers security updates to many packages, but not as much as CVE advisories cover, windows, etc)

https://www.debian.org/security/

https://www.openbsd.org/mail.html (ctrl-f for security, but unlike the debian ones, this only covers patches to the base OS, not other packages).

But for you of course it would depend on what you run and what matters to you.

If it's down to a physical processing power limitation then I don't see any showstoppers to humans making a bigger version of a brain. It's not very elegant to just do it bigger, but it at least highlights an avenue to improving existing systems.

I mean we got here without any sort of intelligent hand, surely there is no mystical barrier to the improvements we can make.
> I’ll even give that in some cases there is just some condition that makes a kid incredibly out of despite actual loving supporting parents, but I would wager you can find environmental causes in most cases.

It seems wrong to single out environmental causes as dominant. There are parents with multiple children who all did fine except one. Anyway, we know it's a complicated mix of genetics and environment and either factor can be decisive.

> Parents are sacrosanct in this country and there is no actual community to give much in terms of help. Peoples suburban homes are their castle and nobody knows how much neglect or abuse is going on behind closed doors until the kid shows up at school with a “behavior disorder”. Simply put: people who are completely incompetent to care for another human being much less an immature one’s emotional or physical or developmental needs get full legal protection. I think this is underappreciated in society since everyone who is a parent experienced many difficulties and they imagine all the ways things could go wrong. They are usually being charitable to the other parents though - the bar at which a child develops a secure emotional attachment is not that high.

Parents are much less sacrosanct in the US/UK than anywhere else.

No one actually knows how to raise children. We have decided to let parents experiment on their children and this seems correct to me. The more we mandate certain parenting techniques, the more it will become clear that the "science" behind child-rearing is not reliable. We'll be screwing up children uniformly instead of haphazardly. I think it's better to let parents do their best. This leaves us with some children who were over-disciplined and some who were under-disciplined and this is a better outcome than everyone being screwed up in the same way.

Paradox DLC policy is problematic I feel: they gate some of the visual flair and more troublingly some of the soundtrack behind payed DLC. How would it be if a movie charged you extra for listening to its score?

Also the large number of DLC makes it difficult to determine what set I may have do give a canonical experience or if it is even viable gameplay wise.
This is a pretty neat list

It was almost an inevitably. Especially for the middle class, I would imagine that both sides of the couple working provided a substantial boost in economic mobility. Or at least a perceived one. At that point its just keeping up with the joneses.

Facebook’s disregard to their internal/less-visited pages is astonishing.

Trickiest part of anything like this. The valuable part is the dataset and that's what people will care about, but it's hard to get people to care without a decent dataset. Building a dataset (especially like this) is really tricky, and it seems like a website like this is the best way.
Quake 3 is over twenty years old though.

Yes, obviously a big part of it is that every studio is hoping for their game to become the next WoW or Fortnite or Destiny— a franchise that will print money for a decade with not much more investment than a few content drops a year.

But I think the expectations of players have changed too, as far as matchmaking, leaderboards, progression, anti-cheat, anti-abuse, etc. You just can't deliver these things in a consistent way with the distributed client-server model, and companies needed to own the end-to-end experience vs farming out the community management side to faceless volunteer guild/clan/server operators.

Right, but that’s not the only thing they do that’s used on the web. They also own and run XML, security specs like CSP and SRI, the WCAG accessibility guidelines, Web Payments, WebAuth, WebRTC, etc etc.

They also do non-web stuff that happens to use web standards, for example ePub3.
This. OP’s username checks out though.

I’m around people who spends thousands on a single garment from brands that the unacquainted wouldn’t know about, but the trained eye can tell the difference. There’s a saying in fashion, “if you know, you know”. Some people just like well designed and nice clothing, and yes, they want to look cool, but they don’t need people to know it’s expensive.

It depends on what OP think of as “luxury”. Maybe for fashion, OP will think of Louis Vuitton, Gucci, but those are Veblen goods as other commenters have mentioned. Ann Demeulemeester, Raf Simons, Dries Van Noten, Maison Margiela, basically all the Antwerpen fashion designers are equally expensive as those “luxury brands”, but the untrained eye would not recognize them. Dover Street Market, not Sak’s Fifth.

Vacheron Constantin is an analogy with watches ( in terms of brand familiarity ).

With this said, the real elitism is the people who buy expensive stuff with the intention of being esoteric or that people don’t understand/recognize.

> people don't tend to want to bring up their new 9 dollar Casio or their 1997 Corolla, go figure.

But people do bring up what’s great about Toyota. I think you’re projecting. I’ve spent $200k worth of men’s wear over the past 5 years, but I’ll still praise and highlight Uniqlo, especially Heatech.

It just happens to be that stuff from H&M and Zara is trash. And niche, therefore expensive, products are making an interesting or artistic statement, whether that is functional or not. No one is buying these thousand dollar watches for the function. A Toyota is about function. It’s literally designed to be utilitarian, and utilitarian is usually not the most provocative as with art.
I see it just as price discrimination and I'm fine with it. I can choose to play with "worse" visuals for a lower price. If I want "better" visuals I can pay for that as well. I'm just happy that I have the chance to play for a low cost (sometimes free). I let others who care more about that stuff fund the cost of development. I'm essentially a free-rider.

That of course assumes that the game isn't sold to me with these "better" visuals as included.
> if games shipped without textures and shaders

Back in the days we used mods and texture packs to remove (hardware) expensive textures from the game so we get more FPS. I'm not sure if your argument applies to all games. For many games there is a competitive scene that usually don't give a shit about visuals and would trade most visual features for more frames per second.
Interesting. I haven't played Rocket League in years, but I actually liked that Tokyo map... it added variety.
Wikipedia opens that

> barter, for example, features immediate reciprocal exchange

Reciprocality requires figuring out how many chickens a Ford Taurus is, i.e. the exchange rate.
While I get the impression that many of those visual bling payables available today seem to give more of a disadvantage than an advantage, back in the days of 1.6 CS I caught myself in real life considering the contrast between what I wore and the environment I was passing through. Not because I was expecting to get shot at (I certainly wasn't), but because at the time it was so much of a routine consideration for me. Yes, visuals can be a competitive factor.
Managers and senior engineers should be responsible for making them feel better in these situations. Having a support group of peers is also really helpful.

If you reach Senior level ranks and continue to suffer from these feelings though…
Symbolics sold an only minor improved CADR as their "LM-2" in small quantities. The CADR wasn't really something one would sell to customers, since it was difficult to produce and maintain. The next generation then started with the 3600, which was a larger improvement (including its 36bit architecture).
This reads a bit like deliberately aiming for Parkinson's law. "Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion."

However, I agree to some extent. I'm especially opposed to the concept that there should be 8 productive hours in a day. I sincerely believe that this is for most people not possible in creative knowledge work, which includes software engineering. So, if you have 5 productive hours of engineering and finished your goal and are in line with expectations, there shouldn't be a need to drain yourself to keep going, but rather spending your extra time on something else like job-related learning is a great way to prevent mental fatigue.

This is especially true as there can be very different "energy distribution" between people. One person can achieve in 4 productive hours what another can in 8. But one works in productive bursts and the other in sustained effort. The first can't just sustain or expand that burst to 8 hours.
I like that in chrome one can turn off javascript and images by default, then re-enable it for select sites only, or leave a tab open to re-enable it temporarily only.

Formerly very catholic Quebec still has one of those crazy laws.

During certain hours (such as, past 8PM on weekends), groceries are only allowed 4 employees. Which is almost impossible in those very large groceries. For many groceries, they just assume this is part of doing business, they would rather pay the fine than angering customers with long lines.

> Maybe a social network that prioritizes high-quality content rather than fresh content. High-quality content (in terms of being e.g. persuasive & informative) may have a better chance of creating positive change than one's typical posts..

One could argue this exists in some way through forums that rank posts through a voting system like HN or Reddit, so my question would be around what would a “2.0” version of this sort of forum look like? How can good behavior be incentivized, I.e positing high quality, original content without allowing older top posts from being reposted by spam bots in order to karma farm?

Much of what happens on mainstream and default subreddits is bot generated, in the sense that they pick popular things and repost them at optimal times of day for as many upvotes as possible.

Just trying to read the article I was rejected from 3 IP addresses by
their junk-yard dog "Wordfence". And I didn't like the overly upbeat
tone of it. So yes, the statement seems full of parochial
self-congratulation for those "in the club".

Please, the "ultimate tool of resilience" was mRNA and the
extraordinary efforts of biologists. It was hospital staff who died
working 18 hour days without PPE.

This narrative that "technology saved us" in the pandemic is cute, but
also puff and bluster.

We're still dealing with the equal and opposite effect of web
technologies in spreading anti-vac messages and conspiracy theory.

The winners were Google and Amazon. Not "the web".

The paragraph "A web for everyone" pays lip service to acknowledging
that "an estimated 37 percent of the world’s population lacks web
access". Yet effectively shrugging responsibility for stewardship onto
Google, a for-profit company bent on eliminating privacy and dignity
online, isn't a good look for W3C.

It hides another reality, the one in which the pandemic showed our
normative reliance on Web technology is itself a form of irresilience.

Our world is precarious in the absence of other parallel and
supporting technologies, of offline, radio, good public transport,
functional (healthy not overcrowded) physical community spaces,
reliable mail service, stable electricity supply and much more.

There's a reality in which some people with unequal access to digital
technology suffered more than if other social measures had been taken.
Those with older phones and computers, the wrong browser, not enough
money for bandwidth and those in rural areas were all marginalised.
Those who value privacy and don't wish to lay their lives at the feet
of a few giant tech corporations.

The "Web saved us from the pandemic" story makes it easier and more
acceptable to exclude marginal groups within our own society.
> Sexual abuse and trauma don’t seem to weigh into this story at all.

Sexual abuse and trauma underlie all child psychological problems, according to my ex, who has spent her career as a child psychotherapist. In fact she says that literally all psychological problems have their roots in repressed trauma.

I think she's an extremist; she hasn't convinced me that schizophrenia and manic depression are caused by trauma. But bad behaviour and non-compliance? Absolutely.
I agree and for a start since most medical data come from hospital and outpatient systems -there is a very desperate need for something more modern and useable than a painful 'Epic' or 'Cerner' systems. Honestly how has silicon valley and newer tech not replaced those companies and their way of doing things?

RDR2 was a masterpiece.

I wouldn't call it the best video game in the history of humanity. Certainly the most immersive open world game in the history of humanity with a story and cinematic flair on par with the best films from Hollywood. An achievement by rockstar that has yet to be toppled. No other open world game including their own GTAV even comes close. Not even elden ring beats it.

They need to consult a therapist because they’re likely dealing with anxiety disorder.

>> Ukrainian forces have been able to take out Russian tanks using the Javelin anti-tank missile system being supplied by the U.S., and a lighter, more easily transportable missile supplied by Great Britain.

> That is not true. Vast majority of tanks have been destroyed by artillery (2nd is stugna-p). You can see on the videos publish by UA. They are burning with twisted parts. Javelins don't cause this kind of damage. People with military experience would know that.

You're not responding to what you're quoting. It didn't make any mention of what proportion of tanks were destroyed by what weapon. The statement would only be not true if the Ukrainians have not been able to take out any tanks with the Western missiles.

> 2nd is stugna-p

Given that's an indigenous Ukrainian weapons system, I wonder if they're still capable of manufacturing/resupplying their forces with them (i.e. is the factory in a captured/threatened area and unable to be relocated).

> Javelins don't cause this kind of damage. People with military experience would know that.

Not necessarily. I'm sure there are plenty of people with military experience who wouldn't know that (e.g. don't have experience with Javelin missiles for one of numerous valid reasons). It's like someone can have lots of programming experience, but not know some specific about how Java works because they haven't worked with Java.
I wish a good alternative will rise soon enough that'll attract more sellers. Perhaps going deeper, by niche would play out better in terms of other marketplaces competing with Facebook?
This channel is fantastic, some of the interviews they do are incredibly fascinating. Saying that, Gummo's accounts of his wealth always struck me as maybe a little on the far-fetched side.
This appears to be an online book (with a physical version forthcoming) that will teach you rust with a focus on "building performant software we can justifiably trust".

I think this is a learning resource (and not, for example, a more formal set of tools to write "high assurance rust").
"A web for everyone" turned out to be a lie.

The web architecture made it trivial to manipulate information and cancel people. Nothing in the protocols deals with archiving or true redundancy. Nothing deals with DDoS or bypassing censorship. The architecture itself encourages centralization. Moreover, the protocols are currently being manipulated to encourage even more central control.

We're way past the point where expressing sentiments like "this is for everyone" is aspirational. Right now it's merely out of touch and tone-deaf.
I sometimes wonder if these sorts of observations provide some reason to make either embeddedable languages or NOT self-host a compiler for a new language, but continue to write the compiler in C or C++. This is a weak argument compared to self-hosting a language, but might be something to consider in passing.
You know who else tried to predict future compatibility of certain people based on genetics? We are as much a product of our genes as we are of our environment. Nothing justifies any of those measures described in the NYYT article and by others in this thread. Nothing, period. If people commit crimes, we have a justice system (no matter how fucked up those can be, not even talking about prisons). For those truly having mental and psychiatric issues, we have corresponding hospitals (again, those can be, and are, pretty abusive themselves). And none of those should be above critical investigations.

As a society we have to accept that some people don't want to cooperate. As long as nobody is harmed (up to the justice system to decide) we have to accept that too.
Not the GP, but I have a hard pass rule on F2P as well. My reasons for it are two-fold. The biggest one is that I just don't want to deal with it. I spend my entire day "doing business." Games are a place away from all that and I don't want the F2P shop to intrude on my time away from the rat race. The other reason is that in the vast majority of scenarios, F2P creates incentives on the developer to create games that feature things I don't like (grinding and lootboxes being examples).
Later CPUs from Symbolics had some hardware support for the GC, which was largely implemented in Lisp and/or microcode.

Under the hood, cargo-embed, knurling's probe-run, and Humility are all built atop probe-rs (https://probe.rs/) to provide debugging - I think in this case it's actually a great example of cooperation between projects! Probe-rs has received PRs from both Knurling and Oxide devs; it provides the common interface to use various types of debug hardware and talk to various types of microcontroller cores, essentially replacing OpenOCD.

Imagine how nice it would be to just have an "YouTube account", that is not related/connected to any other Google Services. Now that I think about it, why would I even want to use the same account for Email, YouTube and Analytics? It would make a lot more sense for them to be completely separate.
Why do you believe a lack of (feelings of) guilt is a problem?
Sure. If you think everything centralized, closed source and federated should be replaced with something decentralized, federated and open source, then Github is unacceptable. Just note that these are not inherently features. They may at some point become useful features - if e.g. all closed source software eventually is exploited by monopolists - but that is a very particular viewpoint. Given the success of Github, it seems that many people don't yet share that view. So, if I were persuading people to use Fossil, I would try to focus on features that most people want. But OK, if it's going for a free software niche, then fine.
