In that case I guess that the images in the article aren't the 'never before seen' (in 2011) ones that are meant to have been included in the publicised book.

Just put it in the example below...
If you're the owner/founder of a startup and have employees, there will be little common purpose at a fundamental level. Your priority is making the company as successful as possible at least reasonable cost, theirs is usually extracting as much value from their job for themselves at least effort. This doesn't apply in all companies absolutely but most of the time talk of "we're a family" or "team effort!" is PR drivel, that more often than not goes out the window in a hurry when things get down to the squeeze. If the owner/founder didn't want to have the priority I mentioned above, they could have started a sincere nonprofit, not a money making investment venture. Likewise for staff.
This makes sense, unfortunately, as there's no long-term immunity granted to those who have colds, the flu, noroviruses, ... either. It's nice that some viruses are so stable that vaccines or sickness can confer immunity but so it goes. This is what endemic COVID looks like. Fortunately, it does not seem to be sending people to hospital at the moment/in the current environment. Take what good news one can get.
Well fine. But now you're contradicting what you said two comments up:

> instead of hoarding food and fuel, you can hoard money and buy the things you need in the future.

Again, how do you know people won't just start trading with other chips? That will devalue the hoarded chips.

The argument started with paper thalers being a poor store of value. Casino chips were pitched as an alternative. And now here we are. Turns out the chips too are a poor store of value. Both can be true at the same time.

Well past time to go to the city inspector. Or refuse to haul the trash entirely.
Causes of price increases:

1. Energy costs
2. Labor Costs
3. Artificial supply limiting(Intellectual property, property rights, licensing, taxes etc.)
4. Natural Resources costs - Recovery (Either Mining or recycling)

Increases in demand:
1. Wages
2. Government(Federal, State Local)
3. Charity
4. Exports

The current process is to cut interest rates which forces cuts and commissions in financial institutions and changes entrepreneurial and investor behavior from investment to wealth preservation. which leads to cutbacks in spending, wage reduction, and layoffs which leads to less demand in common goods once it reaches the middle class and poor which spend most of their money on those types of items.

which also leads to cuts in production as is the case in the current oil production
At that point it's arguable you have joined a cult of one.
The trouble with Germany is the need to do too much in person, and thus too much needs to be done on a local level.

The UK isn't a great example for much, but for instance:
* Passport application - controlled centrally. Has been done by post for years. Now available online.
* Update car registration - controlled centrally. Has been done by post for years. Now available online.
* Register to vote (closest thing the UK has to the anmeldung) - controlled locally. Done by posting or emailing a form to your local council.
Typically such contributions come from the PR budget.

Accepting the truth is harder than learning a new language/ecosystem. Some people love .NET/C# so much that they're willing to pay a hefty premium to stick with it (which is perfectly fine)

But some of those people are also coming out and doing mental gymnastics to defend this decision as something other than what is actually is: an opportunistic price hike (and likely, the first of many)
I'm guess I'm just surprised that the product owner (or whoever tends to fill that role in this space) isn't intimately aware of the privacy concerns. There's an entire market of HIPAA-compliant data storage/processing/etc. If there isn't a HIPAA-compliant web metrics solution, I guess that's my million-dollar idea (free for the taking, I have zero interest in building it myself).
As my philosophy of funding has evolved, I've come to see venture capital as fuel for growth first, and then a relationship with a VC second.

So if you don't have a tested company/product that seems poised to grow quickly if only it could get additional capital, you should probably be questioning the wisdom of taking capital in the first place.

If you do have such a company/product, then you should be in a position to be selective, because not getting the capital shouldn't kill you, it will only slow you down. The risk here is that a competitor may catch up to you, which is somewhat less threatening than immediate existential risk.

The selectivity gained by having a tested product will allow you to choose a VC along other dimensions besides the valuation and investment - e.g. network, recruitment, etc.

To me, these seem like they could be highly valuable if chosen strategically. Perhaps you can get huge discounts from a supplier, or maybe there is a politician or bureaucrat in the network that can help you get certain exemptions from cumbersome regulations. Or maybe the VC is a former founder that has solved a similar problem to the one you're facing. Any of these could give you an edge.

I understand that being able to bootstrap to such proven position might seem like a luxury status that few early stage startups can attain, but I would counter saying that probably there are a lot of early stage startups that aren't mature enough to seek funding yet who ultimately end up with an unhelpful VC, and the data in the article seems to suggest that's true.

I'm not referencing the market share.

I'm referring to Lisp Curse.
http://www.winestockwebdesign.com/Essays/Lisp_Curse.html

In summary: Because Lisp was easy to fork, any time two nerds disagreed it was forked. And because they weren't working on same database you got Lisps with patchworks of functionality/bugs that each on their own couldn't compare to more or less monolith language like C/C++ or Java.

Same dynamic in Linux land.

So instead of having 1000 developers on one codebase we have 100 on ten different DE, windowing system, etc.

Rather than having one sound system we have a dozen... It doesn't work on PulseAudio, try OpenSound, no wait OSSBlasterMaster...
Just as a reference, the application I'm building features a lot things inside the final binary, that might affect ram usage, so this is not a "hello-world" example but a real application, with a SPA built-into the binary and loaded into RAM, together with a HTTP API and more (fuller list here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31765186).

With that said, `ps_mem` (https://github.com/pixelb/ps_mem) reports that the memory usage is 58.7 MiB after starting the Tauri application. If I run just the HTTP API, memory usage ends up being 19.4 MiB. So I guess in that sense, the overhead of Tauri is about ~39.3 MiB.

For my use case, that's pretty acceptable.

Edit: full data in case it interests people:

Desktop application:

Private + Shared = RAM used Program

47.0 MiB + 11.7 MiB = 58.7 MiB ditzes

Just the API:

Private + Shared = RAM used Program

19.0 MiB + 345.5 KiB = 19.4 MiB api
Do people really prefer that, or is that just a faster alternative?

I personally hate using self-checkout/self-ordering kiosks so I am surprised that others actually prefer doing these things without there being a carrot such as "faster" or "cheaper".

What’s funny is none of the rebuttals touch on the reality of the world rebuilding after WW2

Just defense of Marc. Talk about missing the forest for a tree. There was nothing but extreme growth to be had when exporting to the world the items needed to re-establish their manufacturing base.

But naaah; the world was rebuilt due to the brilliance of a handful of computer nerds in one nation.

The only quote that explains it for me is: “You took too much, man. You took too much, too much.”

But the manual intervention of conflict resolution in a Git repo is done in a working tree. The named branch's HEAD remains the same until the conflict has been resolved and the commit is merged/pushed. So nobody sees the conflict at all, they only ever see either the old code, or the merged resolved code.
I haven't heard this claim about the Pyramids, but there's a debate about the Sphinx.

IIUC the original dating from Egyptologists relied on a comparative chronology with the known dynasties and their symbolism. This was called into doubt by a geologist[1] who noted that the erosion on the sides of the Sphinx excavation pit would have needed much longer to form, esp given that Egypt has been dry for the past 10k years.

So perhaps there is a reevaluation of the origin of the Pyramids as well?

Why do you think that phrase necessarily refers to creation? There's no reason why an existing entity can't pop up within another.
For anyone not on board because of how the WebViews work, or that it uses WebViews at all, the roadmap has other renderers to be explored. I believe the majority of the Tauri framework is decoupled from "web" and it's merely supported first - likely through popularity.

When WebView2 goes multiplatform, you might even be able to use it on every platform (if you like web, but want a consistent browser engine on each platform)

I'm more interested in where Tauri will go next in terms of support - not where it is on day 1.
Because that keeps them employed, plain and simple. Almost no self-preserving human being would optimize themselves out of a job without something better waiting in the wings. Creating more work and harder work does the opposite, it allows them more security.

Even if it doesn't mean they want to make more work (like how most developers wouldn't maliciously add bugs to create more work), it does mean the incentive to make less work without a way to preserve oneself is extremely low.
Case in point, Drizzle. It had backing from Google, RedHat, Sun, HP, etc. The fork had over 10k commits, and it was supposed to unseat MySQL as the SaaS cloud DB. Then, the project was just canceled because, “nobody had time to work on it”.

This seems like a really exciting release with all the improvements to the sketch workbench in particular. I look forward to installing the update!
Its so disappointing because its a very exciting time for .net as a framework with all thats happening in .net 6 and 7. But if you mingle at all around the .net community you start to notice that theres a bunch of politics going on behind the scenes and teams are not on good terms with each other (my interpretation is that the Visual Studio team is really rubbing people the wrong way). This could be a time of explosive growth for .net but its just a weird, frustrating experience most of the time.

Power is one factor informing policy, empathy is another. Neither is sufficient for a policy that sustains the system for long on its own. Only focusing on power would result in e.g. exploitation of Africa. But most don't like this due to empathy.

Focusing only on empathy often misses the point too as it tends to get politicized, overinflating minor issues as in this case, which will ultimately result in power conflicts, degrading long-term sustenance.

You can have Capitalism without Corporations: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31317641

You can have a market-oriented economy on small scales, and we can have independent professionals competing to see who provides the best services at the lowest prices, and we can use money and capital as the means of production just fine. The problem is when we take a system in one scale and think "bigger is better". This is when we get "amorphous amoral entities harming the greater good".

Mind you, if you think about it this also applies to other socio-political systems. Communism, per se, is not a problem. If the general idea of "communism" was just a bunch of hippies living however they wanted, there wouldn't be so much reason to be against it.

The problem is when you have people going full Trostky and actively work to make it a Global-scale system, effectively turning the State into an "amorphous amoral entity harming the greater good"

Zig is a winner in my book, because it is simple, yet powerful. It's barely opinionated, you get to invent any abstraction with it your way. You never have to pay the price for an abstraction you might not even need. It's what a system programming language should be.

Consequently it doesn't try to be the be-all end-all of programming languages. If you are not writing an operating system, a database engine, game engine and such Zig is not your friend. Take your finite resources elsewhere, instead of reinventing Java, Swift, Dart, C#, Go, JavaScript or Python. Software developers are very religious about their languages, but Zig really should be just a part of the C ecosystem, only be used for what you would use C for, complementing existing C libraries. I'm not telling people what to use the language for, I'm just saying that using a hammer as a tennis racket is unproductive.
publicity and traction over competition by using the open-source label, then silently switching parts of the code out with closed source replacements, and for the most part, dropping any development or contribution to the pre-existing components, practically killing them off (in turn, preventing any floss forks of vscode from using said components, unless they make a commitment to maintain the security, API compatibility, etc, of those components)

for example, Sublime never did that, sublime was closed, and is closed, and will be closed.

They arn't trying to gain traction at the cost of lying in their advertising and labeling, they don't exclusively release closed licensed versions of their "open-source" product like MS does

I'll take a more extreme position and say that I think this would be totally horrible! I already hate how restaurants have QR codes for you to order your food from their app/site. Have questions about something on the menu? Good luck flagging down an actual human to talk to. Are you traveling and want recommendations on where to go for cocktails later that evening? Well, you're just out of luck on that, aren't you? Talking robots would just be an expensive novelty and there's no evidence they would enhance peoples' dining experience in any way.

Actually, so far in my experience, this advice has been very misleading. I have been told this before, and it had bad consequences. A while ago I got through multiple interviews for a job (in Europe) that had the salary range pre-posted, and somehow I kept forgetting to check whether the posted salary range was net or gross. I asked some advice from people, and was told that it is always net, so I went with that assumption, only to find out when the job offer was actually on the table that it was gross, and the interviewer made me feel a little stupid for not knowing that, saying "it always means gross salary". I didn't take the offer, as it turned out the salary was lower than I was looking for, but I felt rather guilty for wasting their time and getting their hopes up.

So, I find that net vs. gross is this weird thing where people become convinced that there is some default that is always implied, but different people think the default is different. Don't know how that happened, but in the future I will always be clarifying that as early as possible, otherwise it can be a major source of miscommunication.
Usually the best solution is not to ask for date of birth. I guess about one in ten of websites that ask me that actually have a legitimate reason for needing to know.

> Well past time to go to the city inspector.

"Our neighbors have a lot of trash" is not a complaint that a city inspector is going to take seriously, and in any case our city was very landlord-friendly/human-hostile. In most cities waiting for the leas to be up and then moving out is always easier...

We resolved this by threatening the neighbor to go to the office that permitted his food truck.

If food truck regulations didn't exist, we would have been SOL until the lease was up.

> Or refuse to haul the trash entirely.

This was an impractical option.

On an 85 degree day, our apartment would stay below 75 (and below 70 until late afternoon close to the end of the workday) if we kept the large front windows open, the kitchen door open, and some well-placed fans. It would heat up to 85 very quickly if you closed off the airflow. Working in 85 degree heat is highly unpleasant.

To say nothing of the rats and fruit flies/ants, which were impossible to keep out of the apartment even when we kept the doors and windows closed.
It depends on what the date input is for. If it’s for e.g. a credit card expiry date, then the date is already in numbers, so you may have the August=7 mental conversion errors but in the other direction.
I used to dream about working at Google until I interviewed with them. I got dragged along for months and largely ignored between interviews.

I'm on a discord with a friend who picked up some of the Centaur haul. It has been fascinating to watch him go through testing with all of the platforms different emulation modes where it pretends to be other CPUs (often needed to get some programs to run properly). It is kind of sad VIA couldn't focus more on funding this team and finally join the x86 competition again.
The primary mechanism that is allowing this situation seems to be the split between actual Google employees and contractors.

- Less enforcement of hiring standards and methods allowed a cult member in a management role to hire other cult members and arrange them within his organization

- These contracted cult members primarily work around other contractors, who can only complain to their contracting agency not Google.

- The contracts in place make it nearly impossible for the agencies to put pressure on Google beyond ceasing to do business with them.

What woke factor are you seeing here? Google's doing capitalist stuff here not woke stuff, and a cult has found a hole in the structure they can exploit.
