Which is also why I think using facts to convince others is a Sisyphean endeavor. It is far more rational to learn rhetoric when you have to argue. Learn to wield fallacies like a weapon.

Of course, this relates back to good-faith, bad-faith engagement. Wielding rhetoric like this constantly deters people from engaging in good-faith, so you also have to develop a heuristic to determine whether or not the individual challenging your assertions is worth engaging in good-faith in the first place.
This comment is completely slanted and unjustified.

Accurately characterizing this inflation as being partly the result of disruption in the oil markets caused by the war in Ukraine is emphatically not the same as taking political "advantage". It's simply a statement of fact. Not a "political tool".

I think you have an axe to grind and have decided that the Biden Administration would be a nice sharpening stone.

The MiniDV analogy is a really good one for explaining how MediaRecorder works, but also a good one to explain why it is a poorly designed API.

The video needs to be stored for its consumption, like any video, in a container format (like MP4 or Matroska) and these formats more often than not, require to revise what was initially written and rewrite some chunks when the recording has finished up. (I'm talking here about e.g. metadata that goes at the beginning of the file but the actual values cannot be known until the file is complete)

I wonder how you guys at Mux handle this limitation of the API; do you store the recorded videos at all on file?

You would think an API meant to generate some type of video, would be ready to properly do it, right? Or as someone put in a way that made me laugh (from the Chrome bug report, linked below at [1]),

> I don't think any developer out here would ever mark a broken piece of code as "won't fix"

The reality is that everybody looks away. Chrome produces broken files [1] that are not seekable, and when asked about it they shrug and say that the spec itself is meant to be that way, and that you should use an external tool to fix the files (which is also broken for that use case! so not really a solution at all [2]). Firefox has the same problem but doesn't look like they progressed much either [3].

Meanwhile, yeah the spec is as it is and the issue as of today seems to be open [4].

So be aware of this flaw if you'll be intending to use MediaRecorder to actually store your videos into file (which seems quite reasonable that anyone would do)

Yup, and I am still a bit salty Apple discontinued Aperture, which was to iPhoto as Final Cut Pro is to iMovie. I am paying for Lightroom Classic and there are still UI idiosyncrasies that makes no sense to me that just clicked in Aperture (Lightroom CC? Let's not even talk about that version...)
Cool idea! Was wondering if you could elaborate a little on what type of new dev tools would benefit from this. One of the prototypes I worked on was bidirectional code gen for no-code tools but it felt like it might not be the most useful thing.
Author here.

Yes, I think that reading the OAuth 2.1 spec is a great place to start. They've taken 10ish years of real world learning and condensed it down. I first wrote about it 2 years ago[0] but have been following along on the email list and they seem to be getting closer and closer. I don't think it is at 'last comment' yet, but I know they've done a lot of work.

I am also excited about GNAP, which is a 'from scratch' attempt to solve much the same problem. They've made some great progress[1].

I briefly cover both of those in the article, in the "OAuth's future" section

Stepping back from the numbers and into the realm of personal anecdotes:

1. I was listening the radio a couple weeks ago and the DJ invited people to call in and talk about the mask mandate being lifted (in Toronto). Woman calls in, says she went to the grocery store, got three bags of groceries, $146. The dj asks "and... were people wearing masks?" "oh yeah, some were" says the woman before going on to explain how she paid $14.50 for a roll of aluminum foil. The topic was masks and the caller didn't even want to talk about that, the cost of goods was her top and only issue.

2. Standing in a park, an older gentleman is walking by with two small bags of groceries in his hands. I look at him to greet him as he passes, but he walks straight up to me as though he wants to address me. He stops in front of me, looks right in my eyes, lifts his groceries and says "FORTY DOLLARS! Too much money!!" (English was not his first language.) I directed him to the discount grocery, he confirmed that's where he is already shopping, and it's a green grocer with dry goods so I know his bags contained no (costly) meat, just vegetables and maybe some bread, pasta, or eggs.

I frequently hear of "inflation" etc. on the news or economic reports, but this is different. I have never been approached by strangers on the street who are so frustrated and shocked by price hikes they couldn't walk all the way home without telling someone, even a stranger. This economic situation is different from any I have experienced in my ~40 years.
A few years back I ported Haskell style monadic parsing to Java, basically as a shit post entry to an event at work. I sadly don't have the code since it was a work thing, but I got it to work.

... at tremendous cost to my sanity. I've later been told I may have inadvertently broken two of the seven seals.
That's nonsense. The president doesn't even set monetary policy. Monetary policy is explicitly designed to be apolitical yet it didn't stop him from threatening the fed chair with retaliation if he didn't set negative rates. Thankfully Powell ignored him or inflation would be substantially worse.
That makes you a bread-oracle O, but doesn't define bread.

Since there are some inputs x where O(x0) = False, some where O(x1) = True, and the laws of physics are continuous(yes, even in quantum mechanics), Buridan's Principle implies that you are incapable of deciding the breadness of arbitrary input in bounded time.

The device's hardware encoders/decoders have licenses already. Unless you're shipping your own you're not likely have to pay any royalties. If you're so successful the MPEG-LA comes a' knockin' you should have the money to pay the royalties.

The whole purpose of the MPEG-LA is to be a single entity to approach about licenses held by a bunch of companies. Avoiding paying licenses means avoiding codecs well supported by mobile hardware.

Good for you if it works, but it doesn't for me and I find it cumbersome.
This reminds me of how ignorant most adults & teachers were back then about the internet.

When I was in 10th grade (~1995) my high school had a new class called "U.S. History with Internet". Kudos to my school for trying to include the internet in the curriculum, but what it amounted to was 3 days a week of normal history class and 2 days spent in the computer lab. Ostensibly we were supposed to be doing history research on the internet, but of course we did anything but. The best part was they had the shop teacher teach for the internet days. He knew less about computers than most of us 15 year-olds. He'd slowly read directions off a paper - "Type in the U R L bar..." and we'd already be 5 steps ahead of him.

My friend got in trouble for looking at homemade bongs, but the hilarious part is that the teacher was convinced he was actually looking up bomb making instructions and that "bong" was some sort of obfuscation.
Be sure you use a credit freeze, not lock. Freezes are stronger protection, are regulated by Federal law, and the credit bureaus don't like them because you and your data cannot be as easily monetized. I'd call the latter point a sign that the freeze is working.

It's more of a pain to thaw your credit than unlock it, but how often are you shopping for a loan? The slight inconvenience is worth it.

Yes, I was wrong about near 0% for the past decade, although a few of the airlines were near zero for many of the years. But given the volatility, it still does not seem like a big profit margin. Seems like the consolidation was necessary to make them viable businesses. In my lifetime (I am mid 30s), you would have had a really bad time owning a piece of the airline business.

I agree that I cannot decide the breadness of arbitrary inputs in bounded time, although I contend that does not stop me from claiming to have defined bread, on the grounds that the set of Turing machines that halt is well-defined but also has the same difficulty you're describing.

Broadly speaking yes - there is a lot of value in having a deeper pool of skilled people to hire from, and there are enough differences between cloud offerings to knock at least a couple of "effective years" of experience off someone who changes provider.
A Peek into the Political Biases in Email Spam Filtering During US Election 2020
That's Russian propaganda.

The West/ US interventions were always supported by the population, that's why the amount of casualties from US/West military is so low.

In many cases there are barely boots on the ground and the actual work is done by civilians protesting en masse. ( They were already protesting before interventions).

It doesn't mean there are no casualties, but that's mostly lowered by the interventions ( by lowering authoritarian military strength)

That's true, but in my experience there is nothing mutually exclusive in systems being simple and systems running Docker.

Granted, you do need to learn how Docker works, and be ready to help others do likewise if you're onboarding folks with little or no prior experience of Docker to a team where Docker is used. That's certainly a tradeoff you face with Docker - just as with literally every other shared tool, platform, codebase, language, or technological application of any kind. The question that wants asking is whether, in exchange for that increased effort of pedagogy, you get something that makes the increased effort worthwhile.

I think in a lot of cases you do, and my experience has borne that out; software in containers isn't materially more difficult to maintain than software outside it if you know what you're doing, and in many cases it's much easier.

I get that not everyone is going to agree with me here, nor do I demand everyone should. But it would be nice if someone wanted to take the time to argue the other side of my claim, rather than merely insisting upon it with no more evident basis than arbitrarily selected first principles given no further consideration in the context of what I continue to hope may develop into a discussion.
This seems like an unfortunate consequence of candidates being expected to promise everything and the kitchen sink on the campaign trail, and the increase in federal power.

The question isn't whether Mr. Putin, his administration or the Russian state is 'owed' trade. It is whether individuals in the west should be able to freely purchase petroleum products.

The prohibitions on trade are the fault of those enacting the prohibitions on trade.

If you're going to take the realpolitik stance of demanding the necessity of the sanctions as a result of the Russian administration's actions, then where does this train of consequences end?

Did the war in Ukraine happen in a vacuum? Were there no precipitating events, no opportunities for deescalation? If the invasion was solely the fault of the Russian administration, then it should follow that the sanctions are solely the fault of those who enacted them.
Thanks for that link. I don't know about his personal thoughts, but just judging from his work, LC's architecture certainly had a fascist tinge, in the sense that through that kind of architecture man submits to authority. A-tower-in-the-park is a very authoritarian top-down way to house people. There was also his exaltation of destruction, to create a clean slate from which a new architectural order can arise, and fascists certainly appreciate violence as a force of change.

Just do deviate a little from LC in particular. But both communism and fascism are the political realizations of modernism, in that they only can function through the mediation of high technology.

In communism, equity is achieved through perfect bureaucracy; the system of production and wealth reallocation being a well-oiled machine, perfectly transparent and predictably manipulated. It is in communism, that humans completely submit to the machine the most.

In fascism, dominion is achieved through incessant violent action. Technology is the necessary lever to maintain dominance over the enemy. It is in fascism that humans submit to their leader, exhilarated by their shared power through technology (Tanks! Bombs! Nuclear Reactors!)

Since no technology is perfectly reliable, or technological dominion is never guaranteed, both are doomed to fail.
> in democratic countries the best vaccine for the job was chosen.

thats a bit of a white washing job, there was 1000's of posts about the risk/effectiveness of Astrazeneca and the JnJ vaccine that were removed from social media, labeled as misinformation (but were accurate).

The biggest message was "the best vaccine is the first one available", so while we eventually gravitated to Pfizer/Moderna ... it was based on supply and not "the science".

Volker was brought in by Carter.

And Reagan got all the credit - supposedly he tricked the Russians into thinking the Star Wars program actually worked and that was why they went bankrupt.

Things have obviously changed - but the basics are still there: inflation comes from monetary and fiscal expansion - once the spiral picks up - commodities lead the way - and that’s the Russians.

Financial hardship & stress causes an awful lot of problems, including being a major factor in divorce, which is definitely, statically speaking, really bad for kids. Housing insecurity and things like frequent moves between apartments and/or spending stretches with various relatives are common among the very-low-income—those things keep kids from developing friendships with peers (in school or otherwise), and badly disrupts their school experience, once that starts (because they switch schools a lot, have tons of absences for various reasons, et c.)

I'd be very surprised if the benefit you mention even comes close to making up for those things.
