Many people have different problems with WhatsApp. Disagreeing with the one of them isn’t disagreeing with all of them.
She is 10. Yes, that many 10 year old are on TikTok, sadly.

I should have been more clear and said 'phone time', literally, because it's a Google Family Link phone limit. She's allowed to use a chromebook to do homework when needed, which honestly isn't often at this age. Honestly, computers don't seem to interest her much, yet.
Exactly. If you have an intuitive and common-sense take (exposure to stories with difficult themes can help kids cope with similar things in real life) and an unintuitive contrarian take (they don't, so let the kids get blindsided), the onus is on the contrarian to "list a single shred of scientific evidence."

Sure, it would be great if everyone could offer "evidence" for every position, but that's obviously unrealistic and impractical.
And it went through bankruptcy in 2019 to forever be that.
Also color blindness and low contrast.
Then they complain that people in that demographic don't use their product. Because it turns out that people in that demographic exist and they're trapped in a bubble where anyone who is using an old device is a child, elderly person or homeless.
Maybe, but I am not including it in any of my articles, so it's not really on me to know everything about it.

Another user provided an NYT link which suggested it was real, but only indicative and not necessarily factual.

I agree that sources are valuable and important. My preference would be that they are included. However they are rarely cited in a meaningful way, even in mainstream publications.

The beauty of these kinds of discussions is that one could spend about 5-10 minutes searching and come up with a plethora of sources supporting either claim from whichever side you prefer.

From this premise the sources become almost irrelevant. You could examine the source taking a given position on either issue and declare it false. You need only find a contradictory source suitable to your biases.

You could instead reason about the outcome of the accusations leveled in the Steele dossier. If those accusations were truthful, why was action not taken? Again, the partisan biases take hold:

1) Action was not taken because the dossier was fabricated

2) Action was not taken because the accused held political power

Getting back to the larger topic, I ask you: Does censorship enhance your ability to trust the media and discern information, or does it hinder it?
What is tiring is this middle ground fallacy.

Yes, sure, for some things SPAs are appropriate.

That in no way negates the fact that the ratio of "justified use : poor use" is probably 1 : 10. It is a widespread, serious problem that deserves to be continually called out.
isn't it just better to use an app such as 1Password that can keep all your one-time passwords?
1. At least in CS, the role of a PhD is typically different. There are many groups in industry where entire orgs up to SVP are PhDs, and those groups are growing quickly. Hell, consider IBM Research, where thousands of folks have their entire management chain as CS PhDs all the way up to the CEO who has a CS PhD! The work done by PhDs in industry is different from the work done by people with bachelors/masters, even when they sit in the same group. This isn't true for everyone, but it's true for a lot people.

2. "you'll work with people who don't have phds" is also true in Academia. R1 faculty are research group managers. Almost none of their direct reports have PhDs.
Oh god. this, yes please, I got a mild sight disability and the zoom helps doing my work fast, the amount of times zoom was disabled it was just awfull, and in some cases parts of the site (ex: big tables) cannot be read properly.
See

who funded many right-wing causes including the investigations of Clinton that led to Clinton's impeachment.

Those of us who thought American politics was like pro wrestling circa 2000 were amused to see that Clinton became close friends with Scaife later and that Clinton even spoke at Scaife's funeral. As I see it, the bogus attacks from the right served Clinton's 'triangulation' strategy because by being the recipient of right wing attacks he proved his left wing credentials without doing anything for the left.
This is why passwords are still king for many of us.

And that the very same reason people can't be trusted with passwords is the same as why they can't be expected to keep backups of their recovery codes.

Passwords suck. But so does every form of 2FA.
Ask HN: What do you like to learn about in your spare time?
Can I use this space to complain about Confluence? The jarring loading of divs and navbars and content - plaintext content mind you. And we have over 15MB of javascript to display Confluence articles. How did things get so bad? Is it inexperience product owners, product designers?
I timed a Confluence load, and it didnt finish grabbing and executing JS for like 17 seconds, which is -insane-
Watch this space. Specifically I am writing up my ideas for a fusion of SwiftUI and Druid, inspired in large part by Taylor's work on rui. This work is conceptual at the moment, not a finished product, but I am hopeful it will be a better direction for UI in Rust.
disclaimer I work for Shopify, opinions are my own.

I do not think this is true. I don't know the % of shops that are drop shippers, but I do not think it's the majority. Most Shopify merchants are selling things. A lot of stores are Shopify stores that are on custom domains and unless you look at the source, nothing tells you that they are a Shopify merchant. I know of RPG and Board Game publishers and designers with Shopify stores, a local coffee shop and coffee roaster is a Shopify merchant, food companies, etc. There are companies that that have IPOd that started as Shopify stores selling their own things; Which is really cool.
This thread drifted the second ‘engineeringwoke’ (lol) responded to it and misconstrued my point so hard that it’s blatantly intentional.

The vitriol shared (i.e., that I need to “read a textbook for the love of god”) simply for advocating for understanding one another and pointing out that we’re not that dissimilar from the EU, despite less history, is kind of proving my point about people being snide assholes for absolutely no reason. It’s exactly the bitterness I’m highlighting to see people so keen to win an argument that they assume you’re uneducated because they disagree with you, and I guess it’s surprising to get it back on what I figured would be a universally agreeable opinion (that we should all chill out and appreciate our differences).

What a trainwreck of a response chain. Good lord. I didn’t say left or right once. I was alluding to the issues faced by people in different geographies which has absolutely nothing to do with politics nor identity politics. For example, water availability is a major concern in California. It isn’t in Missouri.

How ironic to advocate for understanding one another, apparently fail to communicate that point, and get put in my place for daring to dream.

Funny that advice only applies to others
Then I have to trust an app (which can have vulnerabilities) or a USB device which can be exchanged for a BAD-USB exploit carrier.

That looks like offloading security issues to the user.

Sounds far fetched? If the code repositories are that valuable, why wouldn't state actors try to mess with the hardware and commit underhanded C or similar?

The repository owners would detect the malicious commit? Well, in that case, why do we need 2FA in the first place?
Because it scrolls both in y as well as in x direction. A lot of software supports more than one scroll direction. The magic mouse makes that a very natural swipe across the surface.

With BTT, I can define all kind of guestures on the mouse (some of it can be defined with the MacOS settings, but BTT gives even more freedom). 1-4 finger clicks, 1-4 finger swipes, you name it. No other mouse offers this.

For gamers, I probably wouldn't recommend the magic mouse, though I am fine with it for StarCraft. But for all other tasks, I just love it.
The blog post seems to indicate that there will be an automatic way to move assets to R2 from a S3 compatible service. I haven't gotten access to R2 yet so no idea what settings they have.

"To make this easy for you, without requiring you to change any of your tooling, Cloudflare R2 will include automatic migration from other S3-compatible cloud storage services. Migrations are designed to be dead simple. After specifying an existing storage bucket, R2 will serve requests for objects from the existing bucket, egressing the object only once before copying and serving from R2."

I've read articles about Apple patenting various technologies that would facilitate such a device, but obviously past patents != future plans.

Yes - but I also don't care, because an older browser without JS and without lazy load support can still render the site. Perhaps a bit slower than a modern one that supports the tags, but it's not going to break. Even browsers that don't support picture sets will render things, just slower (as they're not getting optimized files). But at some point, I simply don't care - I don't know, and I don't care, if the site looks right in IE6. It's my personal hobby site, and I'm not going to expend ever-increasing effort for fewer and fewer people.

"Site doesn't work with JS disabled" is a problem, and I fixed it.

"Site looks weird in a 20 year old browser" is someone else's problem. :)
I don't have a cellphone or usb dongle and don't want them.
Thank you! It's still early stages of course. Always grateful for any feedback if you ever have any; feel free to share on discord or email me.
Wonderful news. Supply chain security is a disaster because developers won't opt into any kind of security features in the majority. Mandating 2FA is the obvious solution, and we'll all be radically safer for it.

Glad to see Github pushing this, I hope package repositories follow suit!

You can use --styleCheck:usages or a linter to ensure that the style is uniform.

You cane enable styleCheck:usages by default in the compiler. Also, most editors do variable/proc autocompletion.

Also you can use nimgrep if have to search across projects written by different people.
(Render founder) Stuff like ^ worries me even more. What keeps me sane is our engineering team obsessing over reliability, and learning from every single incident, no matter how small. We're improving every day.
(Since the OP redacted the company name from the post, I've done the same in your comment here. I hope that's ok.)

(We do this sort of thing to protect users, usually as the result of an emailed request, and you can tell when we've done it because of the word 'redacted' in square brackets.)
You can do that with the magic mouse, you can have separate settings for 1,2,3,4 finger clicks, equally for swipes with 1-4 fingers.
It's not C code. It calls into a mixture of C, CUDA, Fortran, and a slew of other things. Someone did the work of finding the best library for me, and integrating them.

As for me, I write:

A * B

It multiplies two matrices. C can't do that. In C, I'd have some unreadable matrix64_multiply(a, b). Readability is a big deal. Math should look more-or-less like math. I can handle 2^4, or 2**4, but if you have mpow(2, 4) in the middle of a complex equation, the number of bugs goes way up.

I'd also need to allocate and free memory. Data wrangling is also a disaster in C. Format strings were a really good idea in the seventies, and were a huge step up from BASIC or Python. For 2022?

And for that A * B? If I change data types, things just work. This means I can make large algorithmic changes painlessly.

Oh, and I can develop interactively. ipython and jupyter are great calculators. Once the math is right, I can copy it into my program.

I won't even get started on things like help strings and documentation.

Or closures. Closures and modern functional programming are huge. Even in the days of C and C++, I'd rather do math in a Lisp (usually, Scheme).

I used to do numerics in C++, and in C before that. It's at least a 10x difference in programmer productivity stepping up to Python.

Your comment sounds like someone who has never done numerical stuff before, or at least not serious numerical stuff.
I once asked my dad why people who committed treason against the king in medieval times were treated so cruelly.

He said that live was nasty, brutish and short in those days, and to make an impact and a deterrence the king had to be over the top cruel.

I don't know how true that is, as I suspect there's a large element of people just liking to be cruel if they have the opportunity.

I have a couple books on the cruelties done by armies in WW2, and in the American west, and could not finish reading them.
a number of years ago when I traveled frequently for work I was very focused on optimizing my airline miles and points.

At some point as part of a computer system cutover, United Airlines suddenly started shorting people miles on airport to airport differences. Not a lot, but a few here and there. A group of folks on flyertalk slowly realized that the change was perfectly explained by the difference between treating the globe as a perfect sphere and treating it as an oblate spheroid.

The previous model had been technically correct and precise. Whoever built the new model had simplified the code for some reason. After much kvetching United fixed it.

Nice. Just out of interest (since I'm new to AppKit), did you decide to use Storyboard or a XIB?
I almost always choose "Amazon Day". Most of the time the orders get consolidated into fewer boxes (not always, though).
It will be interesting to see if music changes this. I mostly listen to classical and older pop/rock/folk but recently decided to see what is current and so listened to the entire Billboard Hot 100.

There was a lot of rap and hip-hop with lyrics that prominently and repeatedly used that word. I wondered then about what happens when non-Black fans sing along with such a song on radio or streaming or at a concert.

I did some research and it seems that a small minority of the artists think that people who sing along should sing all the words regardless of race, with most thinking non-Blacks should not sing that word. Some in the latter group also feel that it is a losing battle to try to stop it.

I think those that want to stop it can succeed--for now. If I ever feel the urge for example to sing along to some rap or hip-hop song I'll have no trouble remembering to skip the N-word part. I've long known that this is a word I should not be saying except under special circumstances where it is clear I should say it and that singing along is probably not special circumstances.

That works for me because I'm adult and when I learned the word as a kid I learned it as a derogatory term.

But now that the N-word is in popular music that plenty of non-Blacks listen to, there will be kids who grow up from the start with that in the music they listen to. It will be a word they naturally learn as part of normal language acquisition without learning the most negative connotations.

I bet it will be lot harder to get that generation to not use it when singing alone, or to not adopt it with the positive meanings that it sometime has when used in rap or hip-hop.

Oh no, they rendered your component twice to make sure it’s idempotent, how magical!

Tell me where react uses magic instead of well defined semantics and maybe I’ll agree

> the early option

Angular and React were around at virtually the same time. A million JSX using libraries promising performance or DX have tried and failed to gain meaningful traction. Early adoption has nothing to do with it - React is the right abstraction for UI dev and is more terse and easier to reason about than any other framework today.
Not long ago coindesk.com updated their website with whatever JS framework and then behave exactly like OP joke. You had to wait nearly 15s with a loader before being able to see the front page. How is it even possible that nobody in the management and dev team realized that this was an absolute failure for a news site ?

They reverted back to some more traditional behavior some times after, but common!
The short-lived Dallas Food blog had, among its memorable long-form pieces, a great 35+-post series on gianduja:

If an "insecure" authenticator reveals itself at enrollment, the only "unevenness" is that attempts to enroll it might fail, perhaps with a request to use a securely attested authenticator instead - you would never be locked out from any service after the fact. This is better than "cloning" a supposedly secure device and then failing a count check while trying to authenticate.
That’s my guess as well.

Lots of hints on touch enabled UI in Big Sur. But whatever it was, seems to have been delayed or suspended.
You should usually use a UIView instead of a view controller anyway (if you do UIKit programmatically, which is the only sane way to do it). Then it is easy enough. I have my own little layout library on top of AutoLayout, and at that point SwiftUI is nice to combine with UIViews.

The root of trust for which extends to who knows where, and you're not allowed to look at the source code or learn how it works because that would threaten Hollywood's profit margins.

We're basically building a system of DRM for access to human beings, and making the whole world dependent on these unaccountable entities.
Some blog is posted here. The site happens to be a SPA. Most of the comments are about Javascript being bad, not about the content. The blog or site authors don't even know it's being discussed on HN. What does this accomplish?

The "homophobic taxi driver" idea is meant as a representative suggestion of the possibility that the taxi driver may be making judgments in a way that the company doesn't want. That's not to say homophobia is the only or most likely way this could manifest, it's just an illustration.
Some USB4 / Thunderbolt cables are like that, but with copper in the middle. The drivers on the device end wouldn't be able to maintain signal integrity over that size of cable, so there's a pair of transceivers in each end of the cable to convert the signal into a format that'll survive transmission.
I wish they'd let me stay logged in longer. I use about 9 machines. On each machine I use 2-3 browsers. On some of those browsers I have several profiles. GitHub logs me out if I haven't used it in about 2 weeks. The result is I have to login with 2FA almost daily. it's super annoying
Doesn't mean they do a lot of their playing at a professional level.
This sounds suspiciously like PGP subkeys. Having not read into how FIDO works, I'm going to now assume it works by supplying a "public key" to a third party, and the third party authenticates by having you encrypt a nonce with a private key. How far off am I?
So if you're travelling overseas for 3-4 weeks, you need to keep extras in all your different luggage/bags, just in case?
I get very upset at the idea that Koolaid dictates front end development. It’s the same backwards superiority from backend devs as I saw a decade ago, except their languages and frameworks have barely meaningfully progressed and they still like to shit on UI dev, like their work is somehow more valuable than it.
Yes. The "IF" in "USB-IF" stands for implementers forum, it is a consortium of hardware companies who make devices. It's preferable to them if they can slap "USB 3.2 support!" on the box without having to redo their boards with a new, expensive component.

In other words, the incentives here are for USB-IF to promote customer confusion, not to reduce it, because that confusion can sell devices and push profit margins.

It's absolutely terrible that the EU is giving this group a legal monopoly on the ability to create and proliferate new standards. Their incentives fundamentally run against the consumer and they have repeatedly acted against the interests of the consumer. Unlike HDMI, there is no VESA to counterbalance them, it is USB or nothing, so you'll have to deal with these crappy standards going forward.

--

HDMI is doing something similar now too - "HDMI 2.1" is a completely hollow standard where every single feature and signaling mode added since HDMI 2.0 is completely optional. You can take HDMI 2.0 hardware and get it recertified as HDMI 2.1 without any changes - actually you must do this since HDMI Forum is not issuing HDMI 2.0 certifications any more, only HDMI 2.1 going forward, the new standard "supercedes" the old one entirely.

So - "HDMI 2.1" on the box doesn't mean 4K120 support, it doesn't mean VRR support, it doesn't mean HDR support. It could actually just literally be HDMI 2.0 hardware inside. You need to look for specific feature keywords if that is your goal.

Yeah, I'm unpersuaded as to the definition of "modern" here. A lot of Aristophanes' work (c. 405-423 BC) still holds up today, if one understands the politics of the time.
This looks very similar to what meta.org developed before it got shut down to pave the way for the Facebook renaming. I wonder if SMU inherited meta.org's archives and data pipelines.
How we even end up with a concept like NFT? Beside speculation, is there an actual use case for NFTs? Any sort of claim that is encoded in a distributed blockchain needs to be backed up by some sort of enforcement. My house title means nothing if the government doesn't back me up in a dispute. Not sure who can resolve the disputes of which blockchain and which token is the "title" of something...
I think the title should be something like "Add-on Transputer boards for the Amiga" because there is no singular "project" in tfa.

fwiw I worked at Inmos during this era and there were many many such add-on boards built for pretty much every kind of computer, typically similar to the reference designs we sold for development purposes on the PC/ISA bus. They all suffered from the same problem which was lack of useful applications. They solved the problem "how do I get some transputers connected to my XXX computer?", but not "how do I do something useful with that?".
