Hard disagree on this...

But to the point, back then web pages were simple enough for it to be trivial to learn by viewing the source, especially if you already had experience with code. You didn't even have to be studying or working in CS specifically, BASIC and Logo were taught in many grade schools.
Hi bernulli,

1) Data are coming from multiple weather models. Primary data source is the German Weather service DWD with the ICON weather model. In my past experiences, the DWD ICON model performs best for many regions. DWD ICON has a global (~13 km), European (7 km) and a Central Europe (1-2 km) "domain". A higher resolution can improve forecast accuracy, but this is not guaranteed.

For Open-Meteo APIs, multiple models are mixed together. Typically high resolution domains only provide 3-5 days of forecast, afterwards they are combined with a global model.

For North American locations, I am going to add high resolution domains from NOAA as-well.

2) For now, only couple of months archive are available. There will be no limit of how much data can be stored. Data is fairly well compressed while still maintaining good read performance.

I am working on a long term archive as well. ECMWF provides a reanalysis dataset called ERA5 [1] with data from 1959. It will still take me a couple of weeks to process it. With 23 weather variables, it requires around 20 TB disk space (Gridded float32 with deflate compression).

The website is taking advantage of the naivety of young women. I would not call it "benign management", just like, for example, I would also not say that online casinos are "benign" just because they are fully legal.
Then it would be more appropriate to say that the website is not a pimp, but a madam.
but that's not science, that's funding and bureaucracy
I "won" with a post. Don't think ive ever really exercised many of the features.
The Vim plugin communities are notorious about the GitHub bias too with almost everything just assuming GitHub.

npm is supports shorthands for some Git forges (though no SourceHut or Codeberg), but without the `forge:` syntax, you get GitHub as the default which is also favoritism (no surprise with Microsoft owning GitHub and npm though).

The worst offender IMO though is Elm who ties their entire package management ecosystem to GitHub where both your identity and the ability to upload a package requires a GitHub account and hosting must be there too, and downloading requires that GitHub's servers are actually up (with the community needing hacks to deal with the non-so-uncommon likelihood of GitHub being down and no way to point to a mirror).

What is the novelty of Strada's approach being discovered here? I'm sure it's gonna be a great framework, but patching in JavaScript functions or message handlers so that your webkit frontend can call native functions is just the way webkit based mobile app frameworks work in general. Am I missing something more subtle?
What you're saying is: we're in agreement :-)

And to the original topic, a good LotR series would be closer to "timeless".
Came here to say the same thing. I learned by looking at the source of every other website, before there was minimization, obfuscation, or anything else preventing one from seeing the entirety of the sites code. A few books and websites definitely helped as well.

I have done the advanced motorcycle training and safety - everyone’s, not just mine - is the top priority, and overtaking safely and smoothly is paramount. If you happen to exceed the speed limit briefly while doing so, it is not commented on. Safety is the main constraint when riding or driving, not speeding.
Don't think I got that far but the thoguht process is not hard to follow. One person is gonna die either way so it might as well be the "better" option.

point is - it has been possible to use the forward slash in windows for over 20y... except in some UIs that insist that it has to be backslash.
Cambridge specifically defines it as "to have the same problem as many other people", whereas US dictionaries tend to go with definitions suggesting the other people are "respected" or noteworthy, so perhaps it's a dialectical difference (I'm accustomed to both interpretations but assumed the former in this case).

The point is to force Google towards a site you expect may have the result you want. site:news.ycombinator.com works for similar reasons.

Basically, you can find (likely organic) discussion of topics by groups who are familiar with the subject and are likely to quickly correct any incorrect or misleading statements.

Otherwise, Google will believe that some no-name site with generated content is... somehow... a good search result. The 'reddit' approach works poorly for me recently, Google gets stuck in certain sub-reddits and there's a lot of low quality or bot content on reddit to filter out anyway.

> 1) Read the source.

That's why I included right-click-protection scripts on all my pages! Couldn't have my friends steal my cool gifs (that I'd shamelessly stolen somewhere else) or copy my cool menu hover effect or whatever!

Of course all this was futile, but we weren't knowledgeable enough to know better, heh. At some point, I also had a script that would "encrypt" my HTML. Looking back, it was just base64 encoding the source, and then through JS converting that string to html and inserting into the body dom element.
Are you sure you are talking about Circle (USDC) and not Tether (USDT)? Let's not confuse one for the other, because I already said right at the top that Tether is not to be trusted.
So the real lesson is that we need more trolleys!

Actually streetcars are kind of a bargain because they use mostly existing infrastructure. But that’s the downside too, because they can easily get stuck in traffic. The LA Red Car system died in the end because without its own right-of-way, it was worse than cars, less convenient than buses.

This is a natural response, but I think it also misses a good opportunity. Philosophy setups like this are always massively unrealistic, but the same is true for almost all physics problems, especially so for first year undergrads. We usually accept the latter as, nonetheless, important pedagogical tools.

If you play along with the isolated premise (without adding in "nuance") of these Trolley Problems, I find they can act like little experiments on our moral intuitions that can illuminate one small, isolated facet of the full complex moral machinery. It's likely a bit like Michelson-Morely, though, where it takes work to digest the experimental results into a useful model of the underlying mechanism.

In that light, it's also interesting to start adding in the nuance you mention, piece by piece, and see how our moral intuitions change, vacillate, and even give simultaneous conflicting answers.

The dark ages were supposed dark in contrast to the earlier classical period, not the post-renaissance period. The enlightenment happened several centuries after the term was first used, and has nothing to do with medieval humanists.

Vault is not just a drop in and go system - setting up a vault instance is an ordeal in and of itself, and the pricing for vault on hashicorp cloud is incredibly expensive. The problem with the other options is that you have to get the secrets into environment variables, or out of github/lab secrets and into your application. To use most of the services like AWS secrets manager, vault, etc, it will cost you more to manage secrets than it will to host the app on a small DO droplet for example.
I would asume yes? Is there any html/css/js feature that you think would be either deleted or changed in a breaking way?

Why do people talk about minor inconveniences as if they were life threatening. Slack is a tool and it provides options to control notifications. There's nothing to hate. I would understand if there were performance or usability challenges. For e.g. teams is a bit laggy. But slack is a good tool overall.
One of the most memorable lines from the novel for me was something along the lines of "if you lend too much credence to symbolism, you end up believing the male penis is only there as a phallic symbol" (said by the main character's girlfriend, if I remember correctly).

It's also fun to read Umberto Eco's take on Dan Brown and his Da Vinci's Code. Eco was joking that he feels he should get some credit for the whole thing, as Dan Brown is so clearly just a character from Foucault's Pendulum.
"Blockchain has transformed the face of technology in the past couple of years. The global blockchain market is supposed to reach a valuation of $1431.54 billion by the end of this decade. With so many advanced capabilities of this technology, everyone wants a piece of the pie."

The article doesn't give a single example of this amazing transformation. Not one example of a real-world application. Nor does the article explain the ridiculous valuation, over 5% of current US GDP.

If you want to get in on this technology juggernaut start by learning the difference between SHA-1 and SHA2. Be sure tomhire the "best people." How did I miss this technological revolution? Sheesh.

Misleading if you consider “EV” as referring to fully battery electric vehicles. BYD was able to surpass in sales for the second quarter purely because their factories were outside Shanghai (which was locked down). Another thing to note is China’s BYD also makes considerably less margin (if at all from their sales, mostly serving the domestic market in China). Clickbait, because most people don’t bucket hybrids as EVs in part because most people simply use them as ICE cars.
Plot twist: misreading the last sentence like s/life/wife/, heh. I had time to feel sad for you for a split second before checking. :)
Yes, people are shitty utilitarians. I can think of a thousand equally egregious examples that we're both guilty of. Doesn't mean we wouldn't be good people when presented with a social situation that our culture and instincts actually prepared us for.

Think about how many people have sacrificed themselves for others. Not just jail time, but death. Would each of those people have lived completely pure, selfless lives if they hadn't done what they did? Probably not. Who knows, some might have ended up being anti-maskers. It is said that "dying is easy". Making one clearly right choice, damn the extreme consequences, is actually very normal for humans. Just as normal as spending a whole life making bad decisions. Even more bizarre is the two "modes" aren't even mutually exclusive.
And we all know isolations based on network perimeter eventually falls apart, and because it encourages insecure opsec practices like this, people are going to have a big surprise when it happens.
I’m more surprised because Hue is one of the better systems, and the bridge can be accessed and manipulated fine offline.

Oh, but there is plenty of platonic relationships with camgirls, streamers and such. It can reach levels of delusion that you wouldn't believe.
and yet Tesla PE is still sky high even during a bear market. Their stock value cannot be justified unless you believe they will continue to dominate EV market, they will have auto driving cars replacing uber , they will have Tesla bots in every office ,home and factory, their ai software will dominate the market.

Hi farmin,

so far I do not offer commercial options, just to keep me out of any potential legal issues. In the next weeks I will review everything, make sure attributions and licenses are correct, and remove the non-commercial limitation.

The argument "tools make the task substantially easier" was already a strawmen because the article is about bad UX with existing apps.
And web devs already have "screwdrivers" but the apps don't get better.

Maybe it isn't the tools because there are great apps on the web,s some of them even without many tools.
Maybe it's time to stop blaiming the tooling and focus on the developers and their environment.

I'm not a bad painter because of the wrong brushes, I'm just not good at it (yet).
> Why is a proprietary communication tools is a problem?

You're signaling to all contributors that you don't value their freedom or privacy.

Not everyone wants to give their data to a corporation. Some users have accessibility needs that straight aren't met by Discord's clients and they send cease-and-desists to every attempt at people to try to make a better or safer alternative client experience free of charge. The fact that there are free and libre alternatives, but choosing not use or at least support an alternative alongside shows your project's priorities (see: Libera.Chat, mailing lists, Matrix, Zulip, Fediverse, RSS/Atom feeds, hosting Discourse, et. al.).

> What's next? It's gonna be a shameful practice to use windows for development?

Slippery nope.
Or we can say (for example) that drivers kill 30-40k Americans every year. By being a bad driver and choosing to drive you are a fractional murderer.

token farming from tokens that are given as incentives for using different dApps. These incentive tokens have value because of the speculative nature of the human brain.
People do not actually tell you the answer to a question like this. "Would you pay to use this new thing I made?" gets parsed into "are you a polite person and not inclined to shit on a complete stranger's work?" and you will never get a straight answer, in the same general vein as corporate feasibility studies basically seldom ever returning a 'no, this isn't feasible'. I recommend r. fitzpatrick's book "the mom test" about that subject.

After people reply (if they reply) to this thing, you will have learned nothing about whether people would actually pay for it. Go and learn that fact in actual viable ways.
Sounds like this is specific to A2141 which is the 2019 intel MBP but the person in video speaks so incredibly fast at each and every serial number it’s hard to tell. Of course his perspective is that this is a major failure mode but statistically probably very low likelihood. I wonder if the variations in quality for USBC chargers has any affect, I’m surprised to not hear more about people wrecking devices while hooking up to low quality USBC.

This was quite easy for me. The principles:

1. Only pull the lever if you are sure. With an action you assume responsibility for the outcome.

2. Don't believe everything what you see or are told. If you doubt do nothing. Imagine you killed many people because you have been lied to and pulled the lever. In this case it is better you did nothing.

3. An action of yours might kill someone. This is a very heavy responsibility you assumed. You need to be very sure and the odds need to be extreme. None of the problems managed to tip the odds. So whenever I was afraid that pulling the lever kills someone, I didn't pull the levers.

4. If my life is at stake, I pull the lever to save myself.

5. If I am extremely sure that no lives are at stake and I am relatively confident that pulling the lever will avoid lots and lots of damage, then I pull the lever. If I am unsure, I do nothing.

6. In all other cases responsibility is too high and I won't do anything. The idea: don't touch the damn thing.

The website told me that I decided differently than the majority of people and finally that I "have solved philosophy"

EDIT: The top comment made a good point. I had to click a button to do nothing. This made me realize that I a had a silent assumption:

7. Time to decide is short. The trolley is already coasting. So I didn't think long and hard because I didn't have time and when I was unsure I would have let the trolley coast past without having pulled the lever.

To a point. I don't need to care whether you wrote your novel on Word or a manual typewriter, by the time it gets to my Kindle or a printed paperback that doesn't matter.

On the other hand, if your web app takes forever to load because of a huge React payload or poor server performance, I do care.

It's too bad they didn't have Kubernetes and React back then. How did they even survive?
Did nothing in all the cases. Why? Because I'm not a hero and it's not my problem, and who knows if I have all the information to interfere anyway.

Plug-In Hybrids (PHEV) are distinct from hybrids, and usually cost thousands more than the base model hybrid, so I wouldn't expect people to purchase one if they don't use it (I plug in my prius every night and the EV-only range covers all my daily driving, I don't know the last time I bought gasoline, it's been months)

> How can it be that two cells that were separated just after conception can carry enough genetic information to predetermine where your blackheads will develop when you are fifty or sixty years old? It’s really very scary.”

The same way they can determine a myriad precisely placed, tiny structures in the body, like the ossicles of the ear.

Or the way a sixty-year-old individual's left foot looks a lot like a mirror image of the right foot, in spite of sixty years of separation.
By then the occupation of Poland had been going for more than a century, so it wasn't about news. And in case of Maryna it also doesn't seem to be about news. It is her well-deserved chance and her choice to say what she thinks is needed to be said on such a momentous occasion.

I said driving on the German Autobahn (I live in Germany btw.) is more stressful than driving on a same looking street that has a speed limit of say 130 like in Austria. Traffic flow is better when all people go at similar speed. Safety is better, pollution is better, noise is better and it makes not that much difference.

Given the fact that air resistance is increasing quadratically with speed, that fast cars are loud, that accidents cost everybody in a socity time and money and that we have even more to expect in form of climate change not having a speed limit seems like a very radical political position. It doesn't seem radical, because it has been "normal" for a long time, but it is forcefully irrational.

Nothing against a little bit of irrationality. I am jumping into the sea or lakes from cliffs, bridges and cranes. But this is a danger to myself and not to others. Also I check beforehand how deep the water is.
