Clarks had an absolute killer product on their hands around 2007 or so.

Full leather sports sandals, with strong but easy-to-operate magnetic clasp, and no seams on inner surfaces. Joy to wear. Practically immune to chafing and blisters. Exceptionally good for walking (or cycling!) for even long periods of time.

Discontinued since ~2009 or so. While they've brought back some of their other pretty good sandals, the perfection reached more than 15 years ago is nowhere to be seen.
I just saw a bunch of numbers last night that suggested Flutter had taken the title as more popular and had it beat fairly comprehensively in terms of developer experience and performance.

I’m trying to find it now but not having a lot of luck as it was a random Twitter thread that was pulling in a bunch of things from various sources, so take it for what you will in the meantime.

For what it’s worth as someone who has spent a bunch of time with Flutter at this point, none of that surprised me to hear, it’s actually a really pleasant experience, the tooling is amazing and unlike anything I had seen before as all of my experience was with web before.

It’s underlying architecture feels really solid, also despite people talking a lot of trash about it, it turns out Dart is actually a really great language as a mix between C#, Java, Kotlin and JavaScript of sorts.

I think every serious criticism I have seen levelled at both Dart and Flutter is also actively addressed on their roadmap so I also feel extremely good about the future direction of both projects.

Like in short, probably the best thing I’ve discovered in a few years code wise, would recommend checking it out.
Most code is open source, I guess they could include a feature (not enabled by default) that sends a warning whenever it sees a previously unseen device on the network. Would be noisy and useless for most, but prevent tailscale from adding a new device secretly.

But then again, I'm not sure there are many people who'd worry about that.
I figured out what I was missing.

- J) We are meant to identify with the androids. Their struggle to wake up and take charge of their own life is our struggle. The abuse they suffer represents the abuse we suffer at the hands of the corporate masters we serve. The rote routines the robots perform are similar to the rote routines humans perform. We are taught habits of thought and action that we repeat over and over again.

George Ivanovich Gurdjieff [1] and his talk about "inner robot" we must over come first introduced me to this idea. His suggestion is to keep the constant awareness of one's eventual death front of mind to break us out of our automatic modes.

Steve Jobs Stanford commencement address expresses similar sentiments:

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

Remarkably little tech information, as normal for the ABC's News show. I don't know anything about QC or who these people are, so I would like to know more.

They have a website, with a press release on it, with the basic information on how the integrated circuit runs in this video [0].

The quantum circuit is an integrated chip that performs one function only, simulating a molecule.

The company aims to have a 10 QuBit prototype integrated circuit by 2023, 100 QuBit prototype integrated circuit with error correction before 2030s and then a Universal Quantum Computer by the mid 2030s [1].

Then again, I think people who skip EDM tracks are bound to do it anyway. A lot of people seem to listen to music just for the lyrics/celebrities.

> Nintendo had a good run

Such a funny way to describe a 130+ year old company.
From Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pachappa_Camp):

> The Pachappa Camp site consisted of a community center duplex along with approximately twenty single-story living spaces. These buildings were originally constructed in the 1880s for Chinese workers who built the Santa Fe railroad and were maintained in poor condition thereafter. The houses were not equipped with gas, water, or electricity, thus the residents used shared outdoor water pumps and outhouses.

So it was more of a worker's camp than something like "Chinatown", "Little Italy" etc. (city neighborhoods dominated by a certain nationality)...

The last point is a good one, I'm not sure how that makes tailscale usable for big orgs. Imagine a company with 10k+ people using it, I guess you'd need to build a lot of own tooling to avoid breaking the whole corporate network because of a mistake in setting an ACL.
You have several bottlenecks in the chain. The phones won't draw more than what their internal power distribution system was laid out for. If it requires a battery internally to run stable you can't just fix that by theoretically supplying more at another point. Batteries are very convenient because they can act as a buffer that is able to supply a high peak current. Modern CPUs and GPUs need a high peak current if you don't take countermeasures. Supplying that peak current from an external power supply would be quite expensive.

To rephrase your question:

Could we build a new phone that runs off a 80..120 W charger without battery? Absolutely yes.

Will it help older phones that were not designed to use such a charger? No, most likely that charger will change nothing.
Depends on who you are. "Nobody" would spend 1k+ on a desk mic, except unless you are upping e.g. your podcasting game.

I suspect a lot of vloggers, or at least wannabe, can and would easily shell out a measly 500$ for a webcam.

I agree, for a lot of people who just want to webcam mom that's going to be overkill, but if you have money, or do it professionally (I don't mean a remote work job) to the point where you are putting on makeup, investing time, often to the tune of thousands or tens of thousands of dollars, its a no-brainer.
Not just early detection, but detection in remission and being able to accurately tell which treatments are working!
Happened to me, my account was banned because I was using it from a restricted country (I used a VPN), for some time it worked fine, then after that ban hammer, all other accounts that used my machine later on got banned. I recall that I read online that they track your MAC address that gets attached to the build artifacts when you upload them to the store and used to link the accounts together, it's even mentioned in their banning email "Your account is associated with another banned account...".
I would have thought so too, but there was a story awhile back about China working out a deal with Chile to import solar power from Chile via a trans-Pacific cable. Maybe it's just hype and nothing will actually come of it, but someone at least seems to think it's plausible.

https://www.pv-magazine.com/2021/11/15/chile-wants-to-export...

Probably the way to handle reliability is to keep some of the fossil fuel plants in operational condition just in case. If everything is working properly they don't have to ever be used, but countries aren't under continual threat that their energy supply is going to be cut because someone damaged the cable (accidentally or deliberately).
> Or perhaps the battery contains its own microprocessor that answers a DRM challenge from the phone specifically for the purpose of blocking out third party battery manufacturers.

Ah yes, good old anticompetitive practices. Sleep well, FTC.
It makes intuitive sense to me. When there is pandemic there is social isolation which leads to distrust between people. And there is shortage of things which causes looting and crime. And what is war but social unrest on a large scale?
Actually he only said that it has historically been rare to see a company move from a highly successful system to the next highly successful system.

So the "significant challenge" is to not end up like the PS2 to PS3 transition, or Xbox 1 to 360... Both of which still were very successful, just not quite as dominating as PS1 to PS2, for example.

Also, the Switch dev forums are chock full with Indie teams who need a bit of funding and a bit of support and don't want to deal with PC and piracy anymore. So I'd predict we will have amazing new Switch indie games for years to come.

In my opinion, the biggest issue for a Switch successor might be that for most great indie games, the console is already powerful enough. So there isn't any obvious hardware upgrade apart from the screen, which they already did. It's kind of the same reason why we don't upgrade our phones every 2 years anymore.
Simple custom hook for React to get the type of the nested child
A component may want to make assumptions about its children to satisfy layout constraints.

To satisfy this need in one of my projects, I have built a very simple custom hook and then decided to publish it publicly.

Here is the thread that describes the problem further: https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/13618

I hope it can be helpful for someone. I also would like to hear if my approach has been already implemented by other repos, because I couldn't find any, back in time.

Thanks.
Sanskrit is NOT the best language for AI and ML
For years now, many Indians—including state officials—have exhorted that "Sanskrit is the best language for AI/ML according to NASA", "Sanskrit is the language for talking computers and future supercomputers" , and "Sanskrit is the most scientific language". An essay called 'Restricted Code' on FiftyTwo debunks these claims, often made by the Hindu upper-caste milieu. It investigates the actual legacy of Sanskrit and its grammar in computing and linguistics, while highlighting that its continued use in AI/ML is a state-sponsored advertisement for the greatness of Hinduism and how 'scientific' it is, with large amounts of money being pumped into creating this product and image. The origin of NASA's role in all these claims is also investigated, revealing Indians' continuing complex about beating the West by using ancient Hindu tradition.
The lead is in all avgas. The solution there is for the FAA to allow unleaded avgas, not to shut down all aviation.

PAO used to be located on what is now El Cameno a couple blocks north of Page Mill. Between Stanford Ave and Serra St. The area is called Escondido Village today.

Eventually more and more people moved near there despite knowing there was a noisy airport there first. Then they complained about noise and caused the airport to relocate to its current baylands location.
Very much appreciate sharing your experience here. This is fantastic!
Creating an application is more like building your own car, not merely driving it.

I think it would be great if more people would be able to create web applications, but there should be better technologies than shipping a ten-megabytes interpreter with every HTML page.

Also Python is not easy for non-developers. It might be easy for middle school level tasks like replacing a word in a string. However if you want to use a database, you have to learn about object-oriented programming, property descriptors, ORM and decorators, all of these are difficult topics and libraries like SQLAlchemy are not for beginners (just look at its documentation. It doesn't even explain what ORM means).
Oh, like Nokia?
Why don't you make it yourself? The ingredients are even given right there. It'll take some experimenting but that's fine, you might even hit on better flavours.
I think perhaps a critical part of the equation is in creating a seamless mix of code and no-code.

In my environment I never have to choose between the two. I code when I need to code, I use the automation when it suits my need.

Take excel as an example. It already does a lot (no code) but allows you to code (vb script) when you want to and if you have the skills.

My field is even more niche - I'm the guy writing new code, then exposing that code, and integrating that code, into the no-code layer.

I'm not limited to "what is available" - it's a full language under the hood. Well multiple languages actually. In addition to the system language I can also write C, or even assembler, that's all part of the system. So I just drop down as far as I need to go.
Thanks, this is incredibly useful! Really appreciate it!
> Real people directly in your infra is probably best avoided.

But I've yet to see a company where no one ever needs to ssh into a server. Using these ACLs to give a contractor access (and even visibility) to only the servers they're supposed to see is probably a big advantage over OpenVPN, where a contractor automatically becomes part of the inner network and can theoretically see all machines?
>If you don’t come to school we’ll put your parents in jail is an eminently rational principle.

That's not a principle, that's a mugging.

Yes, it happens on other platforms too, but at least you can reach a human being who can disclose what the actual problem is.
I get the frustration but it's literally against the guidelines here (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html) to make that complaint. It isn't true anyhow; the comments in question are disappearing nearly as quickly as people write them (because the community is flagging them).

Why assume when you could check? Because the license text shows that you're wrong, just read section 8.2 once again.

I've always heard that and adhered to that, but what's the advantage of me logging in with a user account to then use sudo for every command? It's not like I could break less than being logged in as root.
On this thread, there are bunch of comments which are just "Nice".

I clicked on a few of the usernames, and while a couple are new, many have decent Karma accrued.

I also tried to search for "React Native 'nice'" to see if anything came up on google. No luck.

So is that a meme that i'm not aware of or something?
> Furthermore, translating from (say) JSON to XML is also “translating from one formal language into another”, but that’s not an example of what we mean by “compiler”.

I'd be perfectly happy to describe that as a compiler.
Man, the first thing we need to get rid of is the sponsored search results which have no business to appear on top. For example, if you Google for "toyota", you get an "ad" for the official Toyota website on top.

I mean you are gonna get the official Toyota website on top anyway, for obvious reasons. Showing it as an "ad" to users, just to milk some extra money from advertisers like this makes the entire thing feel like a scam.
Would help to have an easy toggle between the different ones.
Agreed, it isn't Eco's best. But it was entertaining to see how he managed to connect so many historical threads in a somewhat plausible way.
There's this thing on social media (and somewhat less strongly irl) of backlash when you're talking about your choices. Breastfeeding is a big no no on social media, it gets such angry backlash. Just saying you're seeing many advantages, and are happy doing it, brings out so many angry variations of 'well not everyone can do it'. I just feel it's good to put positive experiences out, 'you're shaming people that can't or have decided to bottlefeed' WTF? And don't get me started on angry women calling my wife names because she breastfed twins. Oh see the anger also when she did until they were 3 years old. I don't understand this anger especially when she's only saying 'it was great because x and y'.

Same for staying at home with the kids and trying progressive parenting. The things she gets called...

Why? She's doesn't even think of teaching or berating, she's just sharing her joy and all the positive stuff some life choices can bring... So much anger and and self-judgement out there.
Just to make sure: "rootless" is really misleading. As far as I researched, podman either relies on suid binaries or privileged capabilities or both to do its magic. You might as well call it "capabilitiesful podman driver".
I used an empty loop just to simplify an example. Obviousy in real code the loop would do domething useful and wouldn't be optimized out.
I guess d*ckhead makes much more sense now~
As I understand, C extensions are used for CPU heavy work e.g., numpy is likely ported to WebAssembly.
Yeah I also never understood why the eShop is so bad. Even scrolling around in videos takes forever.

But then again, me and my friends always buy cartridges so that we can trade finished games. So maybe someone at Nintendo did the math and decided that a global CDN isn't worth it.
Thanks for sharing Akita. It looks promising. It seems to be an early stage product. I would keep an eye on it.

Like you said, there should be something like a mixpanel for API usage. Now when I think of it, it is not as an urgent problem as user data analysis. I need to collect user data after I have qualitatively validate my product and started doing marketing campaign. But I would not need to analyse my api usage after I hit a certain level of usage.

API monitor seems to be a less urgent and easier task with less market size.

I want to pay for it, if there is any simple service that I can integrate in 2 hours out there.

Speaking of a full investment (Data warehouse + datadog and alerting framework), I actually don't know what it is, lol. I'm an dumb developer, I just want to pay, read docs, write some integration code in 2 hours, test and then use the service. I have visited datadogs webiste before I post. The amount of info there is beyond my comprehension (or beyond the attention budget that I am willing to spend).

Anyway, thanks for you info :)
1. It's not veiled at all.

2. So your opinion is based on even less knowledge than what that article contains?
Fantastic anecdote, thank you for sharing. I love these kind of stories. It reminds me of the Dwarf Fortress “dead cats in taverns” bug [0], which just goes to show the detail that goes into these game mechanics.

Actually these 3 are the one's who started to coin the phrase.
https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1509/jmr.13.0415

This is another attempt to run with the idea with some variation.
https://www8.gsb.columbia.edu/faculty-research/sites/faculty...

Harbinger Customers is also a phrase coined.

Its out there, its just a question of time before someone picks up the ball and runs with it. You can track idea's snowballing online, like this one.

Research papers like this tend to have more gravity if they are focused at those with money to spend, so this latest twist will certainly get some attention from businesses.

Savvy Political Campaign organisers will also be aware of this development when targeting their efforts for future upcoming US Presidential elections with current legislation in place.

The Surveillance Capitalism that exists for businesses to identify and target individuals can equally be applied to political campaigns, helped along with favourable media coverage from political donors product or service advertising budget to sever the direct link to comply with legislation.

Its not a cynical take on the world, its the nuanced way the world works, something even the press dont like drawing attention to, so you dont ever see any decent investigative journalism now a days.

The world is all bought and paid for, as some would say!

I am not primarily a front end developer but I am always intrigued by React as a way to develop UI (Its significantly better than having a separate XML).
Several things that bother me right now is while working on personal projects involving React:

1. Generating unique ID for debugging purposes.
Currently, I simply use the project directory "component-user-settings-name".

2. React claims "As a React developer, you focus on what you want the user experience to look like, and React handles how to deliver that experience"[1] but this is not always true.
JS have something like COW memory management and AFAIK, React already requires you to make a full clone for each render (if the object changes) so you _really_ want to avoid them if possible.
So you actually do care what React does internally thus I wonder if the COW semantic can be made clearer.

3. You sometimes have to do object of arrays instead of array of objects when you have a short list of very complex objects. The fact that I have to care about this is unfortunate, as refactoring from one to the other is not always straightforward, especially when you need to consider if you changes will cause JS to make clones.

I also wish React can be transpiled/compiled into a much lower level language with clearer performance characteristics. I think Slint UI is the closest that I can find.

I switched to flutter a couple years ago after a RN upgrade caused me days of pain. Took a couple weeks to port the app over to flutter, and I've never looked back. I only use flutter for mobile apps, and I have no experience using flutter web because I have never had the use case IRL where the web apps map 1:1 with the mobile app. They almost always have different implementations and functionalities, and its better to just use react or svelte.

Seriously having a hard time coming up with cons, so here are my reasons why I like it:

- dart is super easy to use

- pub dev is nice, and using forked packages is easy

- great community support

- works for every use case I've encountered so far (push notifications, social logins, maps, video calls, background stuff, chat, etc.)
It is yes.

Throttle the CPU if you find that the phone or charger get warm (too much power supplied long-term) or if the phone crashes (sudden power demand -> low voltage and supply can't react).
