but what happens when its not in the interest of the business to make consensus based decisions? like what you described can quickly devolve into "how do we get everybody to keep their responsibilities unchanged and still make payroll?" vs "how do I delegate responsibilities and adjust payroll to resources that generate revenues vs expenses"?

I just have a hardtime believing this could work. Corporations reflect militant hierarchy for a reason because effective decisions often cannot be made through consensus or utilitarian drivers. Corporations thrive when they are lead by profit incentives of executives who are beholden to profit incentives of liquidity/capital lenders.

You simply do not see a "collective" trade publicly.
Most people would agree with you. It is very surprising when you manage to give ordinary people a voice what they actually articulate as fair and proper and successful.

I remember being involved in running the set up for a major program (very early phase, pre funding but the program eventually burned £billions of investment and took 20k + folk to deliver - I had been long sidelined by then). We ran stakeholder workshops to create definitions of the mission and of success for the people who would be doing the hard yards. I brought representatives in from the field and from the lower management; their verdict on what the programme was for and who should get what was light years from the accepted C-suite wisdom.

Our media parrots that money talks, and the monied classes fervently believe it, but that is still not the wisdom of people on the ground.

But who cares about them, eh?
Actually at $20 for 8 - 11 berries, that's not a bad deal -- but only if they're actually exceptional quality.
Back when I lived in Vancouver (BC), there was an annual apple festivatal every fall in the UBC Botanical Gardens. You get to see and taste (!) several dozen of varieties and that was quite an experience. They also sold a dozen or so non-mainstream varieties at the exit, which too was an awesome thing to have. Highly recommended if you are in the area... though I must admit that apples are my all time favourite fruit, so there is a bit of bias.

Where are those SPAs everybody is talking about?

All sites I use regularly are MPAs:

Hackernews, Amazon, AirBnB, Booking.com, Wikipedia, GithHub ...

Reddits new design is kind of a hybrid. It is MPA when you hop between subreddits and other pages. But it shows a post on the same page when you click on it in a subreddit feed. I actually are annoyed by the new Reddit enough to switch to old.reddit.com most of the time when I end up on Reddit. Not sure why. But maybe it tells something, that the only "somewhat SPA" I know makes me switch to its MPA version regularly.
but that doesn't matter to Bitcoin?
Sorry, but some of us find the topic continually interesting.
It sounds like we're roughly the same age, so I won't go completely into "get off my lawn" mode. But most families in the 80s could not scare up $3K easily, it was a boatload of money; and if they could, it was for emergencies.

It's easy to remember our youth, and think of how easy it was. And it may have been for us (well, I was working or in college most of the 80s), but not our parents who foot the bills.
Call me a simpleton but I upgraded simply because of wslg. I know that you could forward X11 before but seamless integration of graphical Linux apps is too big of a boon.

The other stuff I don’t really care. I have 0 stuff on the desktop and use Super + typing the name of the app to open anything.

I would use a gnome distro if fractional scaling worked decently, but sadly it doesn’t, at least for VSCode and IntelliJ. So WSL it is.

Someone left a review on archive.org with a product key. Can't hold the XPDelta people accountable for that. I could post it here too, and accuse YCombinator of encourage piracy.

Other than that, Microsoft has always been fairly relaxed about copying CDs/ISOs (not sure what the license says about it). It's the product key that matters.
Really? That reply was as specific to your taunt as it gets.. who's the one moving goalposts here?
It really doesn’t say much about you that you got divorced. Women initiate ~70% of divorces and 90% for college educated women. Personally - I don’t know any college educated couples who had the man initiate. It’s really uncommon.

Similar story. Learned Logo at school on a Vic-20. Loved it so much I taught myself Basic at Kmart by grabbing the Basic User's Guide off the shelf and typing stuff into one of the C64s on the display case. It impressed my dad so much he put one on layaway. Been programming ever since.
Yeah - but your few sentances above indicate you have perspective and insight to contribute that is completely missing from the advice in the OP.
There is no aggeessivity in my question.

I assembled many model kits and it never occurred to call myself a builder. Model kit builder concieve the kits and or create parts out of raw material, epoxy putty and/or 3d printing.

Similarly a bicycle builder will solder/bond individual tubes to build custom frame and fork, possibly custom stem and/or racks. A brand that source frame builts in Asia will but mount the ready made part will say "assembled in <insert the country>.

Maybe I am picky with semantics but it strikes me as arrangant to call ourself builders when we just pick up and assemble parts.
If developers could trade more resources usage (cpu, memory, storage, network bandwidth) for better developer ux, they would do it in a heartbeat, which is why no matter how much computing power has progressed, most softwares doesn't seem to get any faster and keep using more and more resources. On the plus side, software development is much easier today compared to decades ago.

As a JS developer, I think this is correct and kind of fear for my future. Time for this old dawg to learn something new again. Thing is, I think I am not good enough for system level programming. I've only done rust to the extend of going just a step beyond "hello world". I've also read good things about Go. Decisions, decisions.
I went to a special high school for kids with autistic spectrum disorder and we were basically all educated and given assistance for during transition to graduation getting SSI immediately.

So I've had SSI my whole life essentially. I've had to live with these restrictions since I was basically 20. I moved out from living with my dad only a handful of years ago. I'm 33 now and I get 870 something dollars a month plus an extra from the state itself and I get supplemental nutrition food stamps and I also get my rent lowered and mostly taken care of and I just have to pay $103 a month for rent.

Doing literally anything that would be considered taking in income would just be stupid for me to do because of any of the penalization that comes with it. Saving money would just be not a good idea even though it would be a great idea to have some sort of a safety net... But my stepmother and actual father have things just in case for that for me so I'm lucky in that regard...

I have extreme anxiety when it comes to managing any of this or managing a lot of things especially over the phone and my dad has had to manage most of that for me directly and I've had to sign a lot of paperwork to make sure that he can talk for me. I basically consider if I didn't have him that I would be homeless or dead right now.

I had a single job during my adult life and I was only a couple years ago. It was through a job placement program for people with disabilities and I was working for some local racing engine shop that needed someone to help with computer things. I helped build them a website with e-commerce stuff all over it and made sure everything was following all the right rules to do all of that I help them build a Facebook presence... A whole lot of stuff in just a couple weeks. I was a brand new person working there out of only like five people that work there and I was the only one who had a brand new computer that I had to build myself out of parts they bought for me that I asked for... But none of that really matters because I realize that the woman at the job placement who managed my case was dating the owner of the engine shops son. As soon as I found this out that just gave me extreme anxiety every day and I felt like I was being just used and I quit. I'm not going to get exploited like that being somebody's computer monkey boy with no proper management.
> "Chipotle is to burritos as Little Caesars is to pizza."

yah, the best burritos and tacos are from a street cart on the corner or a little hut restaurant, otherwise it's probably manufactured food, no matter what the brand tries to sell you, since the overhead costs (rent, especially) drown out all the other concerns like taste.

i personally wouldn't want this tape on my burrito, because i tear off all the excess tortilla to get a better yumminess ratio.
When is a SPA quick? I still have yet to see this claim EVER be true.
Simplify, simplify, maybe for real this time
These are all hard questions but this is a different debate entirely. I was explaining why acknowledging birth privilege is not the same as just telling people "sorry you weren't lucky, too bad". For the people that believe in leveling the playing field, actual social change can be just as important (if not more) as the mindset and hard work touted by successful people.
It's probably not. Exchange hot and cold wallets hold insane amounts, but most of that money doesn't belong to them, it's their clients'.
Doesn’t that always happen? Some people will push the tools so far that they lose all their initial usefulness.
Sure, I get the practical reason why Twitter is focused on that specific subset, but I think Elon's point is, as a user of the service, the quality of the service is directly negatively affected by the number of bots and spam on the service, and if Twitter's not motivated to properly attend to the problem "because it doesn't affect monetization" then that's a big problem when you're looking holistically at the platform as a product from the user value perspective.

If you want to get users to pay for the service, then you have to improve the product for the users, not for the advertisers.

And, to that end, the question of whether the service is being ruined by an abundance of bots and spam, regardless of whether it's negatively impacting _advertisers_, is a real issue if you're looking to acquire the business.
Was AirBnB not one of the first companies to champion server-side rendering of React apps? I think you’re listing apps that are actually a bunch of SPAs glued together (each page is super complex and an SPA of its own right).
Do you have a citation? Every year I get a new load of CS degree students who can tell me what a nondeterministic automaton is, but don't know how to write a PR or write/maintain code in project longer than 1000 lines.
And it's a great service, too. You pay $50 and wait a few minutes. You get a new, genuine OEM battery with a warranty that extends the life of your phone indefinitely.

The right-to-repair people have just lost contact with reality. This is the way people want it to work. It is a great product experience.
Basically, something that happens in traditional finance/IPOs but considered OK. Insider knowledge of knowing when a company will do IPO to get maximum return on their investment and cashing out when company goes public after great public showing. Only difference between the traditional run of the mill companies that go on IPO with massive valuation and what crypto coins do when they go 'public', is that with IPO case, it is socially acceptable for people to game the system.

There are numerous example from IPO bonanza that took place last year where investor did exactly the same and now their stock have reached rock bottom. Whatever value those companies had, the 'insider investor' had their pay day, now its left to rot in public domain. Fantastic.

Scientists: 'A ban on sunbeds could save lives from skin cancer'
The kid down the road from me in rural VA had no indoor plumbing, but had a VIC 20.

I eventually got a C64, but that was after my dad brought home a IBM PC for a few months to do chemical calculations in a spreadsheet. He said it was revolutionary that he could put this machine on the factory floor reactor and develop plug-in-chug calculations for reactions.

He also contracted a local EE to develop a CNC marine buoy winding machine based on the PC. I remember talking to the guy as a kid and he said it was compiled BASIC. It interfaced to the gantry motors and servo system via a giant, custom control board he made.
Or maybe better. In the first days of bitcoin nobody cared about a lost key. A few thousand bitcoin on an account nobody has access to? These bitcoin shouldn’t count, but it’s hard to count them. Maybe declare all bitcoins that didn’t move since eight years as lost?
I mean, if we’re really going down this line of pedantry, it seems prudent to point out that burritos were first created in the United States, so that would indeed be authentic.
Why on earth would you think it wouldn’t? The field is much, much broader than that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theoretical_computer_science quotes The ACM's Special Interest Group on Algorithms and Computation Theory (SIGACT):

TCS covers a wide variety of topics including algorithms, data structures, computational complexity, parallel and distributed computation, probabilistic computation, quantum computation, automata theory, information theory, cryptography, program semantics and verification, machine learning, computational biology, computational economics, computational geometry, and computational number theory and algebra. Work in this field is often distinguished by its emphasis on mathematical technique and rigor.

This is incredibly helpful, thank you! It's going to save me hours of research.

I have a Das Keyboard that I am very fond of, but over the years have definitely started to wonder why a) the rows are staggered, and b) it isn't split. There's just so little reason to stick to this form-factor.

Thanks again!
They don't force you into the tools, the deposit or anything else - they offer you parts at the same prices they offer to third-party service providers and Apple stores. They even offer you credit for returning the old parts. If have your own iFixit kit, the only thing you're on the hook for is parts cost.

Access to the tools for what is likely at-cost shipping prices seems like an above-and-beyond thing to me that the right to repair folks weren't even asking for.

What is Microsoft being defended from here, by these laws which prohibit this? This isn't a pirated work. This isn't distributing keys: they explicitly say you need to get your own key.

I'm honestly not sure your claims are at all valid, that the laws you are describing are the ones protecting against awesome works like this. If they are, then what a shame that those laws would be so overbroad, would threaten & wreck such innocent & virtuous remix-culture, would deny the world any of their agency & enforce top down corporate control.

Aren’t tacos very different things in different places? You and the person you answer to may be talking past each other if you have a different idea of what a tacos is in your mind.

Just for the anecdote, I’m back from France and tacos there are a weird sandwich. But I’ve always seen them made using a hard-shell made of corn, that breaks way too easy. And I believe that’s considered heretic in the US, so I’m not even sure what you would expect an actual tacos to be!

So much whining about SPAs. A properly written SPA is very performant and really doesn't have huge differences compared to MPA.

If anything the only thing that's changed is people understand how to properly write a SPA and JavaScript web development is finally reaching a period of some level of stability.

It really depends on what you're trying to do. Want a fully offline app? Good luck without SPA.
For those curious what a properly wrapped burrito is like: I was taught to do it as follows (worked at a burrito joint, not Chipotle):

- Lay out your tortilla flat with all ingredients on top. Try not to overstuff for the first time you try this because getting it right takes a bit of practice

- Place the tortilla in front of you, ideally positioning the ingredients in a line running perpendicular to your field of vision (straight ahead).

- Take each hand, make the "sign of the horns"[0], except stick your thumb out instead of placing it against your fingers like in the article.

- Gently fold inward the left and right sides of the tortilla about 1 inch/2.5cm (this is slightly variable depending on tortilla size and ingredient stuffing, but a good rule of thumb) using your horn fingers and slide your thumbs under the area of the tortilla closest to you.

- Use your thumbs to push up and roll the tortilla away from you, trying to position the edge being rolled such that it grabs all of the ingredients when you close the burrito. Keep your horn fingers in the tortilla during this step and roll as tightly as possible.

- Once you have rolled the tortilla such that it covers all ingredients, push the top of the tortilla back towards you as tightly as you can before removing your horn fingers and then use your hands to finish tucking and wrapping as tightly as possible.

If done correctly, you should have a wrapped burrito that can be held and eaten without any sort of wrapping or worry about ingredients falling out from either side.

Stop griping about SPAs. Local compute is powerful and lower latency than the data center across the country or world.

Page weight isn't that big of a deal, a 2 MB ball of js is nothing compared to the multi megabyte pictures and videos people routinely add to pages.

For some use cases MPA is fine, but in many cases it's actively worse and higher dev costs to boot.

Service workers are an interesting middle ground I think should see more attention and development. I like to combine service workers with SPAs for fully offline capable web apps.
If your non-spa app requires a page load per an operation, my opinion is someone built it wrong. You can do a lot with < 200 lines of JS to make a page interactive.

Legacy apps were rebuilt as SPAs and rebuilding them made them faster.

"Spinning wheel of doom" is used by users now to describe delays in both SPA and non-spa web applications. Same tricks to make a SPA feel responsive work for both styles.
Often the category is a language phenomenon. The language or the word spawns a philosophical debate but nobody realizes that it's just a poorly defined arbitrary word/category and the whole debate is actually centered around a language quirk.

For example what's the difference between a boat and a raft? At what point is a water vehicle a boat and at what point is it a raft? Any debate on this is simply a linguistic debate disguised as a philosophical one. There's a gradient from boat to raft and people are just debating about a positional problem of where the line of delineation falls. This example is obvious though.

Less obvious is the word "life." When is something classified as living and when is it it classified as not alive? Is a rock alive? Is a plant? Is a deep learning dall-e 3 alive? Is a human alive? Is a brain dead human alive? Seems like a deep philosophical argument but my point here is to say that this argument is as pointless as the boat and the raft.

This thread is the same thing. Pointless debate on whether CS is a liberal arts or not? It's a debate on linguistics. You're all just trying to debate about definitions of arbitrary words. Nothing interesting.
