What blows my mind is cigarettes are on the market but are _definitely_ not safe. They even say it on the box. And they REMAIN on the market!

I think if people went at this with rational minds:

* Discover side effects (via actual science, not the "vaping is melting your brains" commercials on TV)

* List them on the box

* Let people decide
> if we consider pure science as “useful”.

Of course it has to be useful. Based on that we build our world (through engineering) and if we work for something that cannot be used then it does not make sense. I do not see any use for quantic foam or quasars any time soon.

As for magnets: this certainly helps, but has CERN done any breakthroughs that were used afterwards? They had at some point the world record for the density of a magnetic field. There is no practical use for that neither in MRIs (that require a lower field and were used for many years already), nor tokamaks (where the homogeneity of the filed is paramount on larger scales compared to the ones in CERN.

I am not saying that the engineering work that is done in CERN is useless - it is just that the money poured there goes primarily in some "whose is bigger" contest that has exactly zero chances to be used.

> Well yeah that is kind of the philosophy - a single simple way to do things.

Not being able to do something is very different from what you're saying. Not being able to do something, in fact, makes it more complicated because you need workarounds.

> Cutting down on customisation makes the system more stable and I think allows them to innovate more quickly

Nobody is talking about customization. Missing features does not equal a simple way to do things.

> Cutting down on customisation makes the system more stable and I think allows them to innovate more quickly.

How? How does that allow them to innovate more quickly? There has been no innovation in their UI for ages.

> Don't confuse it with lack of power - it's a fully certified UNIX unlike most Linux distributions.

Don't confuse lacking a POSIX certification with the lack of power. The certification is just a badge you pay money for. Nothing else. It can't even run Docker properly.
Do you consider getting a sponsored Visa a bad idea? Because otherwise I would have to make like $40,000-50,000, to support us for few months, get out of Iran and then look for jobs.
I thought I'd be happy with 8GB based on benchmarks and sensationalistic videos (thanks, Max Tech), but I absolutely wasn't. Apple silicon Macs or maybe Macs in general handle high memory pressure (graph in the red) terribly. The system will get extremely slow and laggy, develop audio issues and eventually lock up.

I ran into that all the time on the 8GB model (admittedly with multiple RAM-intensive apps and lots of tabs open), while it now happens very rarely on my 16GB model.

(1) definitely yes

(2) definitely yes, but stay away from front end web stuff if you want to avoid it

(3) that depends on the visibility of the product and on whether or not you think it will help you land a job afterwards, a well respected maintainer of project 'X' or a high profile contributor would not find it all that hard to get a job with a company that is a large scale user of 'X'.

(4) that's an interesting thing, not the first one that I would try but I like your 'out of the box' thinking. Personally I'd go for something that is more in demand but that people dislike, such as either administrative software or embedded. The jobs are more interesting than they seem on the outside and typically job security is reasonably good because these are not boom-or-bust companies.

(5) you should definitely look for better jobs continuously for the first couple of years

(6) yes: concentrate on finding out which country is the most friendly with your country in terms of accepting immigrants and then work backwards from there. That's the biggest problem you will have to deal with the rest is essentially a side-show.

Yeah, and a well regulated militia is also a thing, but that bit seems to be brushed off.

There is no other country in the developed world where gun violence is such a grave endemic problem. So, no, you cannot compare the US to any other country in the world in this regard.

Right, so there be more rules, then.

I would like to remind you that ever since the current government came into power, the number of terrorist attacks in the major cities has drastically dropped.

At one point of time, it used to be regular news to hear about the jihadists bombing places.

I was about 8 or 9 when there was a bomb blast quite close to my house in Hyderabad. That was about 10 years ago.

Folks in the west appear to condemn others but not themselves, leaving a rather poor taste in the mouth.
Personally as somebody who is NOT a software dev Emacs is my favorite tool on Linux and I usually have 1 or 2 windows open at all times. Tramp in particular is like magic, I can natively browse remote directories, copy and edit files and run a terminal remotely through eshell. This is STILL something that VSCode struggles with, the Microsoft "Remote" extension has /bin/bash hardcoded in and fails if the remote machine doesn't have it.

>One might conjecture that if society hasn't determined prostitution to be universally bad and banning it everywhere, then the same thing wouldn't happen to porn.

These two things are hugely different. Kids can and do regularly begin viewing porn right at puberty. There was never such easy access to sexual simulation even with prostitutes. You also cannot photoshop a real life prostitute, or browse around for the most attractive one in the world. Every additional prostitute you are with is an extra price, whereas each additional porn star is free; it naturally leads to needing huge amounts of stimulation that's incredibly hard to get in real life unless you own a harem. And even then if you're into the really hard-core stuff you'd have a hard time finding willing participants.

Porn and prostitution are totally different

It’s simplistic to just trust the justice system in this case. Since short sellers pushing false narratives have drummed up a lot of hate, Tesla sometimes has to “take the hit” as Elon put it. Judges and juries have the power, not lawyers. And they are not perfect and neutral, even though in a naively idealistic notion they are supposed to be.

Also your points were well answered by a different commenter but instead of discussing the good, interesting points, someone just downvoted. This is how it goes with Tesla. It’s some kind of weird thing that happens with companies that make products perceived as luxury, I guess, but in this case aided by short seller media campaigns.
It's called docker-compose, and it's really simple compared to even a 1 pod k8s. Or maybe I'm misunderstanding what you mean by bringing up a set of services.

I switched to surface book when mac jumped the shark in '16.

Went through a few generations of that, it was "ok".

Bought the cheapest 13" M1 I could because I had to debug some stuff on the iPhone, I was pretty angry about it.

That day I switched over to it as my daily driver.

The performance absolutely blew my mind.

Stuff I'd wait for one to two minutes to build on the SB would build in a few seconds on the M1.

Debugging + video call + building went from crushing my laptop to being not really noticable.

I was using it heavily for two days and realized I forgot to plug it in. Was only down to 50% battery.

I'm very far from being an apple fan boy, but this little laptop has completely blown my mind. Simply the best hardware I've ever owned, and makes me easily 2x as productive.

And that's all with the cheapest 8 gig of memory model.
Oh, man, you're in for a treat.

Make sure to enable Handoff - copy on your phone (Google Authenticator, for example), CMD+V on your laptop. CMD+Tab to something on your phone (a Safari tab, for instance) from your laptop, and vice versa. A lot of other neat stuff awaits you!
Just putting this out there for all the “one external display” concerns. I run two 34-inch ultrawides from my M1 Air via a DisplayLink dock. Sure you can’t run Crysis 3 on ultra, but it certainly does the job for browser, terminal, and editor windows

Network chatter can be viewed without source code access. If what they’re saying is true, this app should not make network requests unless initiated by the user.
Also on the fence. For me the reason to upgrade would be the 24GB RAM option: more tabs. I'll wait and see what the hands-on reviews say. Not sold on flat slab either, the wedge is very practical. The M1 MBA is going to be hard to beat.
There has never been a better time to be a self-guided music learner.

Why no resume? Just write down your experiences in sequence. Personal stuff can be included too, most employers of substance only care about skills at the end of the day.

I've met some young Iranians who made it out independently, even in non-tech fields (eg. architecture) in Southeast Asia. SEA is a good potential initial destination. Gets you out and networking and is not over the top (vs. western countries) for flights/visas. Bali, Malaysia and Thailand have a bit of tech presence. Don't recommend the other countries for various reasons but you could always try.

I heard Thailand recently flipped policy to offer 10K THB (USD$275)/year for a remote work long-stay visa, valid ~5-10 years IIRC. Unsure if it lets you get a bank account. (Compare ~AUD$8K=USD$5420 for a provisional immigration visa to Australia - if you qualify.) It's going to be chance to hit the right vein but there are 100% people in SEA who will appreciate your skills and willingness to commit for the opportunity.

>in the greater picture of overpopulation

Source that we are overpopulated? We can shrink the population and still pollute irresponsibly. In the past when the population was smaller we certainly managed to ruin plenty. And we aren't running out of land or food either.
Thanks!

I'm sure this type of benchmark (bubble sort) has been done many times over in the past. But yes, it'd be interesting to see it across ruby versions, ruby implementations, and across languages etc.
Honestly, I find it more than a little ironic that the author is arguing against single-page web apps and then praises native apps as “doing it right”.

Native apps are built and run in a way FAR closer to how single page web apps work in that the browser becomes the runtime environment and the server becomes mostly just an API.

And you are not likely to ever see the kind of fluid results from a traditional full page render web app that you do in mobile.

And mobile at this point has more edge cases to develop for than modern browsers.

But the difference is, as I see it, there’s way less bickering on mobile over “the right way” because most developers use the native stack and instead of complaining about everything they think is hard, they roll up their sleeves and build a good product.

Maybe if we all stopped whining about single page apps being hard and started worrying about making a great product, then we too could match the quality of a nice native app built by devs like yourself.

Speaking about standards; have you looked at IRCv3? Is there anything specific that you feel is not being addressed?

Encryption (to my mind) is better handled outside of the spec itself, just like HTTP vs TLS wrapped HTTP (HTTPS) where the "TLS" has no bearing at all on how HTTP is implemented.

IRCv3 is attempting to address the persistence issues, though many people like the lack of persistence in general.

I don't want to guess at what your concerns are, but more generally; have you looked at the spec?
Oof, yeah, that's bad. But I doubt it could be very common or they would have noticed it and fixed it, eh?

Would you consider telling them about the issue? I realize that might be hard since their "community" links are on the bottom of the page that kills your browser, but no doubt they'd really appreciate hearing about it.

In any event, one regression (however painful) for one user doesn't invalidate the whole idea of Elm. It's still the right way to go even if it blows a tire from time to time.

Interestingly there is at least one effort to write an Elm-to-native compiler, so your Elm "web" app could also be compiled to native code & GUIs.

I agree with this take. Tools should rarely require style updates. Sometimes you see style updates in hammers for example, but mostly they are gimmicks. A hammer from 89 years ago still hammers or pulls out nails. Some forms may be better for certain jobs (framing hammer, pein hammer, etc), but overall the design does not change very much.

When you introduce things like “titanium” and nail holders, etc., it’s mostly marketing gimmick and is reminiscent of kids’ toys. Kids need to constantly be provoked for new interest.

I wouldnt focus on cobol mostly because there are not a ton of cobol jobs. There are some. And they need people. But there are far more open javascript or c# or java roles.

I don't think that statement is true. He speaks to the specific pros/cons of each. It isn't that the design is old--the problem is that that specific design was hobbled from the start, a condition that is especially apparent in comparison to the Air.

In no case am I grafting Americanism onto Canadian politics. I'm using an analogy to illustrate to non-Canadians how outsiders (nationalist extremists from the ROQ) are able to impose their values and views on the multicultural, multilingual city of Montreal and it has systematically strangled the city since 1976.

Or do you have another explanation for the population , capital, and cultural flight that occurred over the 80s 90s that we have never recovered from?
I think of it from more of an anti-natalist perspective. The child will have a far greater chance of suffering while the adults will have a chance for less suffering due to their expected lifespan. That’s why I thought about it in the frame of abortion. We’ll typically assign the notion of having a life positive value, but from my perspective that’s just a chance for more suffering.

But if I’m right above - there is a subtle but crucial difference. Education has (at least tries to have) some objective, applied and reproducible element to it.

While meditation is reduced to religion by its nature.

It doesn’t make it any less valuable for society etc.

But it means we need to call things by their names and stop pretending it’s something else. Like Sam Harris and others do.

Apps that have been updated to work with the notch will flow around it.

If you have an old app that hasn't been updated, you can enable the "Scale to fit below built-in camera" option on the executable and it will show the full menu bar under the notch, exactly like it worked before the notch existed.

Best way to think about the notch is that it's not subtracting from your 16:10 screen, it's just pushing the menu bar up into the area on either side of the camera. It's previously wasted space that now takes your menu bar so you get the full 16:10 screen for content.
