SiO2 glass happens to be transparent to visible wavelengths in particular, which is one of the reasons we use it. But it’s not nearly as transparent to UV and also becomes quickly opaque as you go from near IR to longer wavelengths. In "thermal" IR, glass is actually a pretty good mirror.
A Networked Peace
We were considering asking for this, but we’re just unsure how important it was and whether it would place an undue burden on manufacturers for more simple devices.

Mobile devices are an obvious target for competition because they are just so ubiquitous and two companies basically control the market.
If anyone’s interested, I tackled the other end of this problem (building a tolerance) in a blog post a few months ago:

Slowest and least efficient.. you realize some blockchains update in seconds? For a low value proposition like borrowing a lawnmower you dont need the most secure public network on earth to do it. You use the right blocchain for the right applications.

The problem with trust, is that its awesome until it aint. When we are deaing with gov policy, billions of dollars, war, your life savings,etc a break in trust is beyond costly, making the use cost of a slower but secure blockchain the responsible thing to do.
It's not that Apple ships a browser engine that is the problem. It's that they don't allow you to publish apps that use a different browser engine.

Big difference.
As a consciously single I disagree along the lines of this argument (not with the argument itself). You’re seeing lost relationships as something destructive, and sure it is, but also disregard what others do as something that you can get rid of without any harm (“no life anyway”). I like my life, who’s anyone to judge what is important in it or not. Our world-wide society has this trope. “Hey, these people have kids(!), and these are in relationships, etc etc. And you are single nolifer, your rights and opportunities can wait”. As if a kid or a partner were some kind of a universal voucher.
all those example don't apply to digital contract software.

if someone is passionate about their job, I'm not sure they're being well paid, or they also have very rare skills, so it's an exception, not a rule.

Korean here. Bring it on! We actually love making puns out of people's names. Our own media do it all the time. Some of those puns might be offensive in one way or another, but that has nothing to do with racism in general.

Hi. Tim here.

I first published in on my podcast site and then on Medium and LinkedIn a few days later.

https://www.disruptingjapan.com/turned-500k-pissed-off-inves...

It seems that far more people will click on a Medium or LinkedIn link rather than a personal blog. Then it was picked up by Venture Beat, Business Insider and a dozen other publications and it was off to the races.

I received my 15 minutes of internet fame and over 1,000 emails about the article.
This had a showstopper bug a few years ago that could completely compromise a host.

I am not an MIT researcher however my university dropped Elsevier at some point and I think generally the experience and sentiment is similar across universities and fields from the admittedly small sample size I have.

It makes things more annoying on some levels, but between the two sides of university library versus Elsevier the large majority of scientists agree with Elsevier being wrong so the annoyance is generally acceptable. Ideally this entire system changes for the better but we can make it work in the short term. Not to mention that even before this we often ran into journals we didn't have access to, so some of these annoyances would have existed regardless.
I'd say innocent until proven guilty. Outlawing people without a fair trial is barbaric. But I think the pun isn't too bad.

> I also really wonder where all these "go makes concurrency a first-class concept" claims come from,

Given that some of the main architects behind Go had K&R C as background I wouldn't be surprised if "first-class" just meant that the language defines both a memory model and primitives for threading. C had neither until it basically adopted both from C++11.

Yeah there's work (activity) and there's work (job)

I love working (activity) -- coding is a hobby I long ago made the mistake of monetising haha.

My stuff? I'll spend a weekend chasing a dead end without a second thought.

General sort of cog in the machine day to day work? You're paying me to be a bit bored a lot of the time. Not a complaint or anything, just the routine stuff that can't be automated yet.

Fun comes from learning new things, money comes from being paid for what you already learned.

Of course this is just me, if everyone was like me the world would suck. Absolutely no judgement if you get your fun outside of an IDE!

E: bit of context I'm currently single and have no dependents, I would imagine (hope) my priorities would change if that changed
Both PRs getting merged and issues getting closed within the last week leads me to believe that is not the case.

If you're married and have kids you can just take them out of day care and be a stay-at-home parent for 6 months or a year.

I guess it depends on what kinda person you are, but spending time with my kids is such a fulfilling activity that I wouldn't trade it for cheap cocktails in Thailand.

With current tech salaries you can lead pretty much any life you want.
Opus isn't a Safari bug. Opus is only supported for WebRTC. At no point did Apple advertise Opus support anywhere else. Nor does Apple claim any support for the Ogg container format.

Safari on iOS also doesn't support Indeo 5 video in an AVI container, that's even older the Opus/Ogg! /s
I love the intro to this.

"For there is no way to read the future of the world: peoples, nations, and cultures move onward into inscrutable time. In our day it is difficult to conceive of a future less happy, less civilized than our own. Yet history teaches us that every culture passes through definite cycles of development, climax, and decay. And so, we must recognize, ultimately may ours."
> The binary choice was really quite a stroke of luck because it made it impossible for the government to pretend the decision had been implemented when it hadn't been, despite obviously being desperate to do so.

I believe there was a referendum in Wales on more independence, with a stronger result (60+% in favor), which was basically ignored. (That is: much handwringing and discussion whether the mandate was clear enough). There was a link with Theresa May - she may have been in Welsh parliament.

Could be this one: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_Welsh_devolution_refere...

If that recollection is roughly correct, political implications of the Brexit result would be "whatever suits you best".
I said that to appeal to the HN crowds.

Computing and software was researched and invented in a planned manner (NASA etc).

Maybe you can't "expand" and "generalize" software in a planned economy, if you want everything to be made with software. The article talks about about 80 competitors, so it can easily be said something should be planned.
Supply chain an excuse for price gouging
AFAIK, you still have to be very careful since data races based on data dependencies can never be excluded in general, that is theoretically not possible. What you get is a guarantee that your program is not in an undefined state. There are still plenty of ways to shoot yourself in the foot with incorrect synchronization.

It's sad that so many apps can't be trusted, leading to a lack of trust in apps in general. But that's not our problem.
Would be fun to plot all these on a color wheel to see how non-uniform it is, as a consequence of the distribution in English words (which can be represented this way).
Right-it’s probably not the best analogy. It might be better to use the Ford engine analogy (Ford / Jaguar / Rover / BMW et al), where there are multiple brands / chassis using the same powertrain.
most of the papers I read are open access, especially the newer ones. There are some good journals on Elsevier and Springer and most of IEEE stuff that is behind paywall though. My university gives me access to the majority of them and when not I use SciHub.

Go has some appeal in general. It's super easy to stand up webby glue appy things in go, and it has a solid cloud ecosystem, maybe the best cloud ecosystem.

That said, people ragging on rust pushing that trope are basically just making stuff up to hate on it. Anyone who looks into the language and views programming languages as tools and understands these issues gets why someone might use rust.

But yea, it's ironic... Especially seeing how many times I've seen smart colleagues get go concurrency wrong.
Does anyone have sufficient knowledge of these things to have a sense of how it is going?
I still have trouble figuring out how Docker works on M1 (I don't have one and I'm not sure it it meets my demands, infinite loop). Can I just pull a random image and expect Rosetta to do its thing without worrying? I can understand that 90% will work without issues, but it's always the remaining 10% that will suck up all of your time.
> The real problem here is that scientific works are not artistic creations and shouldn't be covered by copyright

While they are perhaps not artistic creations, I see scientific papers as the creative work of one or more humans. Most computer code is not an artistic creation, but is a creative work nonetheless. My comment here is not artistic…

second the pen and paper

i diagram everything on paper first.
I believe what they did is take some time duration to develop tolerance and another time duration to read the effects from it, and during those durations, split study participants into four group, one of which received 400mg of caffeine during both periods (caff/caff), one of which received placebo then caffeine (plac/caff), one of which received caffeine then placebo (caff/plac), and one of which received placebo in both durations (plac/plac).

Assuming tolerance and withdrawal are actually happening, you would expect the caff/plac group to be the only group experiencing both the tolerance and withdrawal. From looking at the paper, it looks like they gave 400mg of one thing (either placebo or caffeine) for 14 days, then gave 400mg of the other thing for 1 day and asked study participants to rate themselves after 24 hours. The caff/plac group seemed to rate higher on fatigue, weariness, and being tired (not sure what the distinction is between those three things) and lower on energy.

I think this is where the Elon Musk is so detached from reality. Because he can do exactly what he wants all day, and he loves what he is doing what he does all day is not work. Certainly in the sense that say, assembling parts of a weird electric car for 12 hours a day whilst being trapped in the factory for 24 hours is work.

I see it in smaller business. I once got a phone call from my then boss, a sort of VC, who was clearly drunk, who could not make my meeting because he was doing BD. They worked collosal hours on this, in the corporate entertainment suites of the local sporting venues, in the city bars etc. Even lunch was a work activity for them.

Interesting. Was it common in the past, or in your region, for the service worker to actually ask for the change? I've never heard of that, or experienced it in my own life. Usually the customer plays the only active part in the "keep the change" interaction.
Why did you give up Docker? How is that brilliant? Docker is brilliant, giving that up is not brilliant.
Thanks, I'm glad you had fun! I'll have to look into that. Do you remember if there were a lot of beats in your pattern or if the tempo was really fast or anything? And what platform were you using it on?
Looking at the export code: https://github.com/bitwarden/clients/blob/da5e4a57d026e0d093...

The entire export process seems to be client side. Altering the export to include files should be feasible though the Bitwarden devs might choose not to merge your code because allowing users to access all of those Azure buckets all at once must come at a significant cost.

My workaround for this is to stuff SSH keys and the like in secret fields rather than attachments. This doesn't work for larger files, but it works well enough for my use cases so far.

> I wished there was a wm that gave me the simplicity, stability, and snappiness of i3, but with better floating window support, and context menus to configure common window properties

I think the "traditional" family of tiling window managers (like ratpoison, awesome, dwm, xmonad, i3, etc) are kind of simplistic in their assumptions that 1. they can at any time force any window into any size and position, and 2. they must always force every window into some size and position.

In my opinion, a good algorithm of where to place a window (and what size to use) would go like:

1. Where the user expects it (e.g. last position)

2. Where it doesn't obscure anything else (optimal use of screen real estate without forcing a specific size/position/layout)

3. Wherever the application thinks it's best (the WM should never need to hardcode/configure rules like "GIMP is like this" or "xcalc works best with that")

As for automatic tiling, I'm a big fan of what Windows is doing, and would love the traditional tiling WMs to iterate on this idea, while recognising floating windows as first-class citizens.
That’s exactly how I would put it. I read his article on Philosophy yesterday at 30 after reading his essays at 20 and admiring him. It’s crazy how impressionable my mind was at 20
I think there is also another shift underway: experienced workers prefer to work as consultants for one or more companies, so:

(a) they not beholden to any specific corporation and its hierarchy
(b) they get tax write offs
(c) they get to work on projects that excite them
(d) they stay current with skills rather than stagnate
(d) and other advantages I can’t think of right now :)

And for consultants, being remote is the norm and corps don’t question it much.
Nothing about that sounds like a client-side problem; it’s a server-side problem. If you’re optimizing for sound quality on a web-streaming platform, and you don’t wish to transcode on the fly, you will always end up with a platform-specific shim. A native app would still provide a better experience on ANY platform-ask TIDAL, Qobuz, et al.
Being underestimated increases the probability that the enemy will miscalculate and decide to wage war against you, which leads to a lose-lose scenario. This has happened many, many times in the past. It is best to project strength (to deter) while not giving away information that can be used against you.
People using Docker are not the problem. That's a perfectly normal workflow. If M! doesn't support that, that's on Apple and not on the users.

All good! And sorry for not making the effort to understand your position first, I want to work on that.

> The incentive structure of academia that leads to software like that, though, is also a big reason why I left. The theory is super important (that's why I work on a regex engine that only provides support for regular languages), but I also think the engineering aspect is just as important. And academia, or at least the corner I was in, just did not care about the engineering side of things at all. This in turn leads to publishing results that are hard to reproduce, because if you don't share code that is at least somewhat robust, it's going to be very costly for someone else to build on your work.

Totally get it. This also baffles me - papers in computer science that are hard to reproduce? Yes I know, publish or perish and all that BS. But I don't want to accept this: I mean I get it for psychology obviously, and then also material sciences and so on, but for compsci?... Next to proofs, programs are probably one of the most reproducible things that nature has given given us.

Good for me and many others that you cho(o)se to spend your time on building tools :)

Possibly, but Tailwind makes things so much faster for me. React has "better" developer tools. Perhaps I'm less proficient in Svelte, Rollup is still cryptic to me, and I haven't taken the time to use Vite/Kit yet.

Oh I think the other thing was Svelte doesn't work as well with Typescript (or I couldn't figure out how to make it work as well). I wouldn't get type hints in situations where I would with React.

Perhaps I just didn't take the time to get things set up properly. If you can link a Svelte project that uses Tailwind and Typescript I'd love to give it a clone and see if things work better.

Regarding productivity, I don't think I'm "less" productive in Svelte, especially for smaller apps. I think I've been really conditioned by React and have an easier time splitting out components and making things more modular, which makes a big difference with larger apps.
