>> More to it, to anyone who claims religious people are intellectual inept, I would simply challenge you to read any of the material written by the intellectuals of the tradition

That's a straw man - we all are idiots sometimes (I believe that most of times but that just me) and this little silly observation can be easily used to explain how otherwise rational and intelligent person can hold two opposite views in their had. Our rational abilities are greatly exaggerated by people like You who believe that there are magical others that can be rational all the time in all aspects of their life.
Those people believe in God because they want to believe (by which I mean its an emotional decision and not an logical one) and the logic is there only to rationalize what their emotions are telling them.
I suspect that if medicine will get advanced enough we will see finally that by just playing with memory and emotional state of person we can easily turn the most avid believer into Christopher Hitchens (and vice versa).

No it's not, people can make better stuff and put their own brand on it... Nobody excluded from making better parmesean, only from lying that it's from that region when it's not...

> He then repeatedly refused to fix the issue.

I'm not too sure if that is actually the case. I'm only going on what the developer has mentioned in the forum about it, specifically here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/app-5-0-fairemail-fully-f...

From his own words :

> The app most certainly doesn't upload any contact info, unless maybe your email address to login to the email server.

> but they don't provide any details about what the app presumably is doing wrong.

Where are you getting the info that it was scraping contact lists and sending it to 3rd party ?

I just finished the book Four Thousand Weeks: Time management for mortals. Similar thinking in that a lot of suffering and procrastination is caused by not accepting the reality of our finite time on earth, that we can never do it all, and we have to make tough choices and most people try avoid the anxiety of facing those by distracting themselves. I loved the book, and your comment, as refreshing take on “productivity” but I recognize it’s also extremely difficult for many people to practice.
It’s not at all clear that the current epidemic is caused by sugar.

Lustig is a great speaker, and I’ll admit that when I first watched that I was quite convinced.

His position, however, is still not representative of a consensus within the field, and for good reason. While sugar consumption is likely detrimental to one’s overall health. Simply cutting out sugar is not necessarily going to lead to better weight management outcomes.

While sugar consumption has increased over time, so have added fats and oils [0]. Which are much more calorically dense. It’s unlikely that any one food source is leading to the increases in obesity that we are seeing.

FDroid clearly didn't detect how the app queries contacts from an external server. Neither does FDroid check if the app uses newer better APIs to conduct its activity.
The power consumption of this would be too high.
I agree, I think I was making the distinction between doing X due to reasons you're happy with and that are considered normal and doing X due to anxiety.

Those two X's are not the same, and it isn't useful to compare them even though they appear comparable or similar or the same.

The key bit is the anxiety (however small or large, frequent or infrequent) that makes the distinction.
I've read the responses from Google that the developer copied and none of them clarifies exactly what's wrong. If this is really the issue then they should have explained it clearly instead of saying that the app is a spyware.
Why are they offering it for free? What are they hoping to achieve?

No, they won't listen. People have been asking for it for years.

Its a big reason we don't pay for GitLab. And will be one of the reasons we will switch to GitHub (which is sad)
Executive Orders, technically, are only orders from the Executive (the President) to the rest of the branch. As in, they can only tell the rest of the Executive Branch what to do, not create laws. However, with how much Congress has delegated to Executive Agencies, there's a lot more overlap and gray area than there was 233 years ago.

For example, the CDC has the authority to mandate certain things in the name of public health, because Congress created the HHS (who oversees the CDC) with the express purpose of doing so. So an Executive Order directed at the CDC can, in a sense, give the President that power.
I'm not against all usages of it. I think where one needs a supremely robust material (like in the military) it's very useful.

However I think it should be banned from any and all contact with foodstuffs.

I think the point the parent is making is that when the rate of inflation is higher than the nominal rate of return from your investment, your investment has a negative real rate of return. To put it another way, if you're socking cash in a savings account paying 0.6%, while inflation is 9%, you're losing money.
There's been a lot of talk about fly.io lately - it's clearly an awesome and exciting platform. But I'd have to agree with the author here that it doesn't solve the core problems faced by most web devs and web dev teams.

There are 3 relevant (for this comment) "performance layers" in building software:

- Cycle time of a team or of the project - this is affected the most by language/framework choice, DevOps infrastructure, and team working style - this should be measured in days/weeks

- Feedback loop for an individual dev working on a new ticket - this is based on the team's cycle time but in addition is really about the dev environment, team collaboration, how the team maintains quality, and how well-defined work is before being started - this should be measured in muinutes/hours

- Performance of the software deployed in terms of response time to end users - milliseconds

Fly.io helps the most with category #3. But how often is that really the most important issue in choosing where to deploy your app? If an alternative made small sacrifices there (for example went form 99.99% performance to 99%) but gained velocity for individual devs and the team to be able to ship better product more quickly, would the company/project be better off?

At Coherence (www.withcoherence.com) - disclosure that I'm a cofounder - we're laser-focused on a post-Heroku development platform that goers further than Heroku on categories 1 & 2 above (where I'd argue Heroku is still the gold standard) rather than focusing on category 3.

We're super early but in closed beta - if it sounds exciting please check us out and request a demo on the site!
I am all for dropping jQuery. But...

Unless this team perfectly did a 1:1 replacement of jQuery calls with equivalent native JS functions, this isn't "removing a 30KB dependency reduced blocking time by 11%."

It's "we rewrote our JS and it reduced blocking time"

You just have to find enjoyment in it or whatever else you're trying to learn. There will likely always be people better than you, this is especially true of chess. If the only enjoyment you get out of it is being good then chess is probably not the hobby for you. I started in my early 30s and I likely lose to 12 year olds online all the time, I lost to one in real life even though I'm a fairly highly rated player. It's still fun though.

I think you are struggling with something I thought a lot about too. It is difficult for our brains to actually internalize the /immense/ amount of time evolutionary processes have been happening. It is so long and vast and our brains are barely good with comprehending hours and days. It is a mind bogglingly loooong time. Like really, really, really long. A lot can happen in a few billion years :)
Hi nrp

I demo-ed my frame.work laptop yesterday to https://www.matinfo-esr.fr/ which is a single buyer entity for all french universities and public research institutes (once hardware is in their catalog it's click to order for universities without administrative hassle).

They showed interest on the non obsolescence, durability and repairability aspect of frame.work since these features are part of their public service mission.

Feel free to contact me, my email is on the website listed on my HN profile

Yeah it's a bit weird, but haven't found a better trick yet.
The developer is obligated to prove that they aren't guilty of something without being told what that thing is?

Other people's detective work is just guessing. Google has not given any specific instructions, and so they cannot be followed. It IS on Google to be fair here. If the action is so hainous, then they can certainly say "this action is not allowed" so that the developer can satisfy them. List all the reasons why Google might not do that, and find a single one of them that's valid.
This somehow points towards an interesting question. Is it healthy or "good" to procrastinate? Since this is a problem almost everyone has during their life, it must serve some evolutionary purpose.

What if it was disadvantageous to outwork everyone else during anthropogenesis even if it is rational in our modern world where the upside is practically unlimited and the downside is nearly always limited? A natural environment is almost exactly the opposite - Does that mean we are fighting our "natural" behavior every day? This question isn't meaning to be fatalistic, exactly what OP and the video by Luke Smith he linked criticize. But understanding the biological reason behind procrastination could lead us to some deeper understanding on how to win this uphill battle.
The environmental benefit of a laptop with modular components is debatable at best and negligible at worst. At the scale of the Framework laptop's production it's meaningless.

As for the display, for a laptop supposedly intended to last years, every human interface component should be the best available option. The ergonomics are important for a long lived device. It shouldn't become problematic just because the owner aged. Otherwise the laptop ends up the same as any other where the owner tosses it after it becomes uncomfortable to use. All the benefits of modularity are lost if it ends up in a landfill.
Yeah I have been looking them over and they seem very interesting. Have not tried them yet.

Would love for there to be One True Way(tm) without the framework question.
Do they want to or do they have few options?

When a brain is trained to follow along from childhood, I don’t really see how it’s an option to avoid it.

Also the 13% are not all engineers. Many are historians or similar who babble nonsense. We built many big buildings and bridges before web devs came along.

Centralized ledgers used to dictate agency and what effort we must put in (computed by elites with a currency monopoly; which in the US is legally a speech monopoly thanks to SCOTUS) are not really the same thing as a bridge.

There’s a big difference between things we need to engineer and TV 2.0. Whole lot of IT is rent seeking.

This is one of the best courses on ML.
>That said, I've mostly reached the conclusion that much of this is unavoidable. Systems languages need to have lots of detail you just don't need in higher level languages like Haskell or Python, and trait impls on arbitrary types after the fact is very powerful and not something I would want to give up.

Have you checked out C++20 concepts? It supports aliases and doesn't require explicit trait instantiations, making it possible to right such generic code with much less boilerplate.
I wasn't referring to financing it. Nobody in their right mind would do that. If you pay your bill in full at the end of month you don't incur those usury rates. Many people treat a credit card like cash.
Bitcoin proponents definitely (for a time) claimed that it was Bitcoin's utility as a currency that gave it value in the first place. That everyone would need some because everyone would use it to transact. That's a claim of an inherent investment value that didn't actually exist, making Bitcoin exactly like a distributed Ponzi scheme.

They're focusing on the enterprise segment (in general, the company running this is a known tier-1 corporation), which will pay $$$ for a reliable and uncongested connections.
I've noticed some times the AppleTV Netflix app, there can be a lag between what I have selected and what the tv thinks I have selected. Clicking on one movie will load the movie next to it, or I'll see the title of one movie with the picture of another. I'm not sure if they're trying to load things asynchronously to improve UI responsiveness or what, but I often wondered about the abstractions or design choices that led to a bug like that when a gallery view should be a problem we solved in the 20th century.
It's actually up to Google to prove this, both logically and legally.

I dearly love Glitch for k-12 education use cases. My only consistent complaint after all these years is the slow speed, especially "waking up" apps. Hoping this acquisition will result in continued investment to speed up the platform!
Please don't let weird localized keyboards block this. We don't care about that stuff. People buying framework laptops are able to change their keyboard layout in software and use it without having to look at the symbols present on the keyboard. Yes the physical layouts are also different, but that really doesn't matter. Just make it available and forget about these tiny issues that your target market of power users don't care about.

I want to throw my money at you, but I can't because the laptop is not available for shipping to the country I live in.
It's not because you know how to do a hello world that you know how to program.
This was a very interesting read.

IMO the author underplays the visual ugliness of some Rust code. Programmers tend to look at code for hours a day for years, and so it should not be visually taxing to read and parse. This is why syntax highlighting exists, after all.

But the gist I got from it is that Rust is really a very good static analyser.
This doesn't make any sense. Unless you're paying for a static v4 address you're not getting a static IP on your router either. You generally have to be on a business plan with most ISPs in the US for this type of feature. IPv6 and v4 are no different in that regard.
Those are good questions.

I think the primary driver is DRM, which itself is driven by the content owners more so than service providers.

While the streaming services themselves surely want to protect their service from theft, they would largely benefit (with some caveats) from having a platform that's extensible and flexible as a competitive edge, similar to how a phone vendor wants to have a thriving third party app scene.

Meanwhile, the content owners still use misguided tactics that punish legitimate users in the hopes of stopping piracy. Piracy that always seems to find a way to continue.

This leads to some good questions around what kind of policy can be made to give content owners legal rights to their IP while also respecting user's rights to build and extend.

Because ultimately the core offering of these streaming services is their breadth of content and the license negotiations and library management they do. Their apps are just front-ends to that.

So, a "right to extend" initiative that pairs with the "right to repair" initiatives could be something interesting to explore.
Simplifying interaction with the DOM is obviously a huge feature of jQuery. But also the functions are just very nicely laid out with the assumption you are doing web stuff.

$(thing).doThis() is just so perfectly terse and understandable for what it's doing. Not just writing, I find jQuery to be very, very easy to understand and read.
>While this is true, I can still code circles around frontend developers using vanilla JS.

My first use of jQuery was in the dark days was building UIs (with things like drag and drop, etc) that had to run on Internet Explorer and Netscape. We'd started with "vanilla" but were ending up with what was effectively two separate codebases. Moving over to jQuery let us eliminate a massive amount of duplicate code and dramatically increased our productivity.
What's the class using now?
This article says makes 2 competing claims

A) jquery deals with inconsistent browser implementations, largely in older browsers

B) replacing it with modern API calls made the website more usable for all users including those on older machines (and presumably OS’s)

I don’t see how to square those.
What is the practical significance? (please explain like I'm 5)

Google says:

> The main difference between IPv4 and IPv6 is the address size of IP addresses.

What are the practical implications for internet users and infrastructure maintainers?

I suppose you could argue Terra has some flaw that can't be mitigated, but surely someone merely holding Terra could close their position at anytime. What is the fault in this line of reasoning?
As someone kinda obsessed with handcrafting all of its software without any dependency and is highly used to dom operations, I can't but thing you're making it much more of a deal than it is.

Handcrafting JavaScript applications without jQuery is possible, the real question though is: is it convenient if you like and find productive using jQuery? Here's a fact: you can always remove jQuery later when the product is mature and standards understood and there is time budget for it.
Literally everything except video and voice was introduced with slack. Video and voice was horrible and only got really good when they already won the 'battle'. The API and Hooks were even borrowed from slack initially and only later extended.

I am not even a fan of slack and have no need for a group IM like this at all. However discord was everything but revolutionary.
That's an unfair and incredibly dangerous description of ADHD medications.

First off there are multiple types of ADHD drugs. I presume you are referring to stimulant drugs which are the most commonly prescribed for ADHD, but there are many non-stimulant drugs available for ADHD particular in the USA.

Second stimulants are only party drugs if you abuse them. At prescribed doses they're very safe long term, so long as you've no heart issues. You often get a mild euphoria when you first start or increase a dose but it stops after a few days of use. The same applies to a lot of medications, they can get you high when abused but that's no reason not to use them at the prescribed doses.

Third there's plenty of evidence to suggest that the end effect of stimulants is different for many with ADHD and that they're less likely to abuse them due to this. The drugs do the same thing to everyone but due to lower levels of dopamine and/or higher sensitivity to dopamine many people with ADHD don't get high the same way if they abuse their meds.

Fourth there are lots of long last slow release meds which are difficult to abuse. Vyvanse in particular is almost impossible to abuse as it metabolizes into amphetamines after you take it and there's no way to speed up the reaction enough to abuse it.

Fifth to get diagnosed with ADHD your symptoms have to be having a severe negative effect on you life in multiple areas. I can't find the stats atm but life expectancy for undiagnosed and untreated ADHD sufferers is significantly lower than average mostly due to risky behaviour, mental health and bad consumption habits (food and self medicating with other far more dangerous substances). So the risk of any stimulant medication (which is extremely low for most people) has to be weighed against the risks of being untreated.

That's not to say there aren't any potential issues with ADHD meds. Everyone reacts differently so you should be careful and only take them under the supervision of a trained Psychologist. They're also not sufficient on their own. But they're well studied, extremely safe when used correctly and statistically the most effective individual treatment by far for a very serious condition. So please don't post misleading things like this and put people off of seeking potentially life changing treatment.

I've used ML to supplement straightforward heuristics before.

For instance, I built a fuzzy matcher for business addresses which was based on hand-rolled heuristics but used logistic regression to train a probability estimator that the match was correct and then hand-evaluated a few thousand matches so that the matcher knew the quality of results it was returning.
