Not as well known as Bender, but just as capable. In fact, probably more capable according to those who know him, but it's so close that hardly anyone cares.

Tends to get flattened when people try mixing his work with existing Bender work. The two just don't go well together.

I'm not super knowledgeable about this however NL is a powerhouse of agricultural technology, they're a tiny country that's the 2nd largest food exporter in the world. There is a lot of really really interesting technology implemented there that will possibly make them a superpower once food crises become more frequent with climate change.
I agree these particular antics, while deserved, are irresponsible and illegal. Not that I expect that kind of mind-blowing nuance (ie: that a thing can have both good and bad aspects) to go down well on the internet.
Sounds to me like the author should perhaps stop and think a bit more before "firing the arrows".

You don't need to wildly iterate and iterate and iterate if you spend some time doing design work upfront. If you just sit down and start slinging code at the screen without much planning then of course you are going to have to waste a lot of time reworking stuff. While "boring" it is ultimately faster to just do some up-front planning/designing so you know what your DOM needs to be before you start.

It takes discipline to work like this though, so I guess it is not for everyone.
Actually a very good point, things can definitely be better

That is a large blanket assumption. Condom breakage, having a specific gene which makes female birth control very unreliable [1], partner reproductive coercion [2]. Among others. Given enough time, moral purity spirals into attacking then punishing the people wronged or having found themselves in an unfortunate situation. In this particular case, condom breakage, an unfortunate gene one didn't know they had, finding out too late you trusted the wrong partner [sneaky birth control sabotage] etc.

Well, I stopped here. You are a programmer. Typing things into an IDE or terminal or whatever is what you do. Personally I find it enjoyable. If you find typing to be slow and boring, maybe you should go through a speed typing course to learn to type faster.
There are only about 1700 NFL players total at any given time. Most of those guys have amazing natural talent, honed by 10+ years of intense training that would crush most of us.

This is blowing my mind, probably envisioning the wrong size of the candle for this kind of output:

> The candle supplied by MineARC Systems burns for approximately 60-90 minutes, producing 2600L of oxygen. This amount can provide approximately 20 hours of breathable air for four people. An oxygen candle cannot have its oxygen production regulated or halted and once ignited; it produces oxygen at a rate of approximately 28 Litres per minute until it is exhausted.

Oh I see now, it's that big metal cylinder on the floor, they are going to pour the powder into it and ignite?

Isn't that the whole point of preventative measures?

Relatedly, getting a recession now does not at all mean these measures were not successful or that this recession is at all similar to the one that was prevented.

> If at some point we no longer want to incentivize that behavior, the government can simply remove the tax break.

Yes, as we’ve seen, it is very easy to get the government to repeal a loophole that enables a billion-dollar company to dodge a tax. Why, it is virtually child’s play! The poors just need to hire a lobbyist, outspend the tax-dodging lobbyists, and Bob’s yer uncle! The government, as you say, will simply remove the tax break.
Maybe. The best engineers are also naturally talented. It is a fact that to be a good engineer you need to be very smart. You can get by with just a CS degree and a Cisco certificate, but you won’t be a game changer.

How many Principle Engineers are there at the FAANGs? How important are they to the business, and how long did it take them to get to that level, in their careers?
> I basically eliminated almost all interaction with social media some months ago ... and all this woke conflict stuff, it just goes away. You start noticing other things - people in general are not concerned about any of it, they're more concerned about the high prices and potential inflation spikes.

We clearly run in different circles. I basically eliminated my own social media usage, and pretty much what people around me are concerned about is who will get deported, how to protect people seeking abortions once they’re banned, and what new fresh hell will be visited on some person of color or marginalized faith, trans or queer person, or just someone holding a camera. Y’all worried about your finances are totally justified in that worry. But these concerns aren’t drama or trivia, they’re literally life or death for people whether you care or not.
As Balmer put it: developers, developers, developers.

In other words: the purpose of (consumer) Windows isn't to make money for Microsoft; the purpose of (consumer) Windows is to create a sales channel — "Windows users" — for Windows developers like Adobe to sell their Windows software products into.

Microsoft then makes their money off those very same Windows developers, through corporate Windows licensing, Office subscriptions, Azure, etc.

As such, Microsoft tries as much as possible to avoid "bringing in" any features that are currently being sold as products by companies in their developer ecosystem (which would deprive those developers of revenue, and thus deprive them of revenue.)

If the data is highly relational, no JSON structure and data duplication will save you from joins. You will either do them at database level or in memory.

I see a need for relational databases, NoSQL, data lakes and all other storage strategies. You chose based on the type of data, the way you acquire it, the way you process and deliver it, based on security and reliability needs.

In many non trivial application there is more than one data storage solution implied. Since I work with large microservice based apps, it's a long time since I have to use more than one data storage strategy in the same app.
I've been doing elixir professionally for 6 years. I realize I'm in the minority, but as someone who _reads_ a lot of code, I feel that the strong emphasis (and in some cases, requirement) to extract functions seriously hurts readability.

Quickly glancing through this, I see the Complex Branching case as an example (https://github.com/lucasvegi/Elixir-Code-Smells#complex-bran...). It makes my brain need to act like the runtime, storing the stack of the current function in my head, jumping to the function call, then returning back to the original function and restoring the stack (to be clear, I'm not talking about the actual execution, I'm talking about what my brain goes through reading this).

In a complex codebase, the jumping can be far (physically and figuratively), especially since there's a strong preference for pattern matching in function parameters (so in the given example, there might be 4 `success_api_response/2`.

Inline code is _often_ easier to read and reason about, even when you aren't concerned about a function mutating a parameter (as in the case with elixir).
Politics is about winning and crushing your enemies and their aspirations in favor of your own desires.

This is a childish sort of cynicism that's really about nursing your feeling of grievance with promises of justified retribution to come. I actually have a philosophy degree, and studied in detail the political philosophers of the last five centuries. Politics is not about crushing your enemies, it's about figuring out durable institutions and social pacts that maximize freedom and human flourishing while sufficiently limiting our self-destructive tendencies. It's about figuring out how to live together. If it comforts you to believe that "my victory" is as cynically appreciated as your own, you're doing yourself a disfavour.

Just don’t pretend that everything’s nice and happy because everyone agrees

I don't. But I also don't fool myself that the sort of big tent moral relativism that allows for indivisible differences to coexist side-by-side is some sort of victory, or commitment to rights for all. It's just a matter of using high-minded rhetoric to avoid hard choices in who you're willing offend.

> Almost all applications that are written in the world today are glorified forms.

Yeah, but our users like interactive forms. When a widget is changed, they like feedback instantly.

Just about any shop that reloads the entire page when you change a single filter gets annoying pretty fast.

Imagine an online computer store: tick the box for "16GB RAM", wait for page to reload, tick "32GB RAM", wait for page reload, tick "512GB SSD", wait for page reload, tick "1TB", wait for page reload.

Now you may argue you still have to wait if it is an SPA, but then you're only waiting for the results. You can quickly tick all four boxes in an SPA and each one may cause a background request, but that doesn't matter because you don't have to wait for each request to complete to make your next selection.

In 2002, J2EE was having the first adoption steps, while .NET was still hot out of the factory.

As mentioned in the video, candles are a backup/supplemental form of oxygen generation. Older platforms will have an AEOG (Automated Electrolytic Oxygen Generator), popularly known as "the bomb", and newer platforms will have the substantially safer LPE (Low-Pressure Electrolyzer).

Burning candles is a hassle and creates a big mess, to the consternation of junior enlisted who have to haul clinkers around and clean up the constant dust storm they leave behind. That said, huffing that good O2 straight out the spout will keep you awake, especially if your boat has been below 18% for awhile.

If you tried something like SceneBuilder (JavaFX) you'd probably change your mind. At least for me, using a visual tool to do layouts saves a ton of time. Even if there's some fine tuning at the end, just being able to do the basic layout is some much easier with a GUI.

It's the same as writing Markdown vs a GUI editor. Sure, I'm faster with Markdown for the simple stuff, but as soon as you want some tables you go find a GUI for it [1].

There are whole sites dedicated to publishing (let's be generous here) weak scientific papers as preprint stating that the peer review process has finished.

They don't tell readers the result or if peer review discovered flaws. They use this non-label to give credibility to papers that failed at credible journals.

I stumbled upon this in videos of the more intelligent anti-mRNA vaccine people that used this subtle trick to con their believers I to more strongly believing them and at the same time arm them with another well sounding argument against one of the best medical and scientific achievements in the last decades.

Also approved Health Claims on food (as regulated in the EU) are often not understood by consumers as intended by the regulation.

The literate consumer (me too often included) is imho more often than not a myth from the same pantheon as the homo oeconomicus.

Bitcoin Drops Below $30k for the First Time Since July 2021
Before doing anything make sure you get your UX design team/designer/person responsible for what it looks like to finalise the design. Full specs required for fonts, colours, sizing, padding, accessibility labels etc before a single line of code is written is the optimal situation, but not always realistic - get as much as you can agreed first. This is because from experience designers et al like to fiddle around with things a lot before it is "done" so don't waste time coding before the specification is ready.

Once you have a stable design/specification to work from you can start - I like to plan out the DOM before writing any code to avoid the excessive "firing arrows" the author struggles with. I generally try to code up the raw HTML first, then progressively add CSS afterwards. I avoid CSS frameworks like tailwind/bootstrap wherever I can as they get you started quicky yes, but in the long run make it harder to get exactly what you want (see previous remake a out designers liking to fiddle)
How many recessions happen when a bunch of people think a recession will happen tomorrow? The Fed is trying to reduce inflation. It seems like they’ve done a pretty good job of doing so just by signaling an aggressive rate increase schedule. Once inflation is lower, they can go back to pretending stocks and real estate aren’t real inflation and start juicing the markets again.

Jeffrey Wigand: The big tobacco whistleblower (1996)
In 1996 no-one expected to ever be recorded on video or to appear on a screen. I was doing a big game for Eidos at the same time as DMA were doing GTA and we were photographed and interviewed once for a Polish video game magazine.

I'm always struck by the line in Back to the Future where Doc says he understands why the president in 1985 is an actor. Everyone is walking around with a portable TV studio. We've all become much more used to being recorded, or recording ourselves, on an almost daily basis. We also watch other ordinary people in videos all day. And our children grow up constantly on camera. We have changed how we act when a lens is pointed at us. In the DMA video everyone is nervous as fuck as most of them have never been interviewed before.
my guess is that Terminal, powerToys, and WSL were approved by MS management because they wold contribute to more sales to advanced users who would otherwise choose Linux. the same cannot be said about PDF viewers.

I also find it strange that MS keeps pushing people to use Edge as a PDF reader. only goes to show how valuable user data is, or rather, how desperate MS is for such data.

to be fair, Apple does the same. lots of functionalities that you would expect from macOS are left for third party apps to provide. for example, changing external monitor volume, a proper window management that snaps windows to edges/corners, remembering the position of apps in different desktops, enabling font smoothing, enabling HiDPI on external displays, limiting apps’ CPU usage, etc.

Each of them costs like $15 which adds up to hundreds. But even if money wasn’t a problem, it’d still be concerning to use hacky methods that are sometimes closed source too.
I'm also struggling to get an idea of the size of the candle; the article gives no information and it's unclear if the photos of the demo are using the same product as described in the text. Surely something that can produce 2600L of oxygen must be pretty big? It's a shame that the page gives no clue as to the size and weight.

Another page details a 'rugged oxygen generator' - https://minearc.com/products/emergency-response-products/rug... that produces 90L of oxygen over 15 minutes, and that is 115mm x 284mm, weighing 2.3kg. Confusingly, the PDF of the product specs shows that it comes with a mask - so 90L of oxygen is for one person, for just 15 minutes here? And if used with a mask, is it actually pure oxygen being produced, or breathable air (where does the nitrogen come from?) I'd love to know more, but the website doesn't tell us.
