Mind that the article mentions a Dutch patent from 1598.

On the other hand, the development of the steam engine and its application is partly grounded in Trevithick's fierce rejection of existing patents (hence high steam pressure) and also in the rather loose enforcements of the Stephenson patents.
Just to mention, Russia invaded Ukraine and never declared it war. Russians are also comiting genocide in Ukraine. Russians call it special operation, it is illegal to call it war in Russia.

USA offered to fly Ukrainian president to safety. Ukrainian president refused and Ukrainian army started to fight. USA did very decent thing after - supported Ukrainian army with guns.

Not a single American Army soldier fought.
I've been actively degoogling my life for about 10 years, mostly kicked off by Snowden's revelations. Off the top of my head, here's what's left:

• Youtube

Too much content there to stop using. I almost never use it while logged in. I never subscribe: I bookmark the channel.

• Maps

Too useful to stop using. Haven't tried alternatives, but open to recommendations. Business locations and open/close times are must haves for me.

• Duo

It's a videophone that mostly works.

• Chrome

I never stopped using Firefox as my main browser since ~2005, but I'll use Chrome from time to time, mostly for website development and watching Youtube.

• GMail

I've almost completely moved off it about a year ago for Fastmail, but I keep checking my existing GMail. Probably should get around to moving over completely.

• Android

I'm a recent LineageOS convert, but still use it with the Play Store.

Rocket does have the trust ratio needed. But then there is questions of burn time and control. So you could get up there, with some risk. But not stay there for very long time.

Short googling for solid fuel rockets seem that longest burn times are less than 3 minutes... And that is best case scenario with 20th/21st century technology...
This is what makes a wall of French cleats in your workshop a gem!

Now if you have sets of tools, this makes sense. At the first picture, I almost closed the thread. Bundles of Allen wrenches? Too neat. This doesn't apply to my life. But other contributors to the thread would put less strict/bundled sets into place in drawers, and I could appreciate that.

I think of how automotive, etc. tools of mine are in a mix of a 4-drawer unit, a portable all-in-one kit, and hopefully nowhere else (but that's not the real world.) But the 4-drawer units, while somewhat "organized", could benefit from this. As long as there's some room for adjustment later...

Hey, creator of Appsmith here. Thanks for trying out the product.

To answer your first question; yes, it's possible to build dynamic apps that can countdown the seconds to zero or build a timer dynamically. The sample application: https://app.appsmith.com/app/input-widget/input-counter-reva... shows a counter. In this example, while a user is required to click a button, this can be modified to be triggered automatically every 1 sec.

It's currently not possible to power the UI via websockets yet. This is an open feature request that we are yet to implement.

Having said that, I'm sorry that Appsmith crashed for you. Were you trying us out on Appsmith Cloud (https://app.appsmith.com) or were you self-hosting Appsmith via Docker/k8s?

Please feel free to email me at arpit [at] appsmith.com & we'll help you out succeed with the product.
Seconded! I’ve been curious about a self-hosted recommendation engine, I would love to see your implementation.
I’ve never heard good things about the experience of using leapp and it always seems like an unloved project.

Upgrading major versions of RHEL is akin to jumping 5+ versions of Fedora at once and I don’t think it could ever really work well without waaaaay too much work that probably isn’t worth it.

The Alma Linux “elevate” project seems to be attempting that using leapp as a framework but also allowing migration between RHEL derivatives so we’ll see how that pans out I guess.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold up. You're saying you don't spend at least 50% of your time building tools so that you are better prepared to spend the other 50% doing actual things?
For me, talk about "de-googling" and other such processes comes down to really thinking about what your goals are. It's easy to get into a binary all-or-nothing frame of reference, which I don't think is constructive as for most use cases "some" is still significantly different from "none."

My own goals/use cases:

- I'm unhappy with the current economics of the online world, that are based on advertising. I accept that developing products requires money, and getting money requires a business model, so if I don't like the incentives ad-based business creates, I should actively support alternative models

- I'm unhappy with the intrusiveness of tracking. I think consent is important -- not as a legal concept, but as a regular human being understands it. When I interact with a person or organization, I can meaningfully give consent for their actions. I can't meaningfully give consent to what some third party who isn't part of that interaction does, regardless of the legal fine print that says.

- I'm happy that the internet has become mainstream and people who aren't "tech people" use it.

- I'm not concerned with targeted attacks, but am concerned with opportunistic attacks against my online accounts and identities.

- Yes, "identities" -- I believe people should be able to have multiple identities online.

With those criteria, my current set up:

- password manager -- no reusued passwords. Whole family uses this.

- Fastmail. Because I use email so much, it's clearly a valuable service for me. So it' worth paying for -- I'm many years out from being a broke college student.

- A domain I purchased just for emails, and make use of subdomain addressing. I tend to use a different subdomain email per service. Goes to the goal of multiple identities, reducing tracking and reducing opportunistic attacks

- I've kept my gmail address and forward it to my fastmail, because I don't want to make my personal contacts use a different email address than they have for years. Maybe I'll change that some day, but I'm ok with _reducing_ rather than _eliminating_ google in my life

- FireFox. Also Mozilla VPN, to give Mozilla some money, though in practice I don't really have a frequent use for VPN.

- Duck Duck Go

- Ublock Origin

- Subscriptions to a handful of news outlets I read frequently. Print subscription for one of them!

- Separate computer for work vs personal

The problem is that you need at the very least 1 on-chain transaction for every human participant, to get money into one wallet that they control. But BTC barely manages 5 TPS and ETH maybe 20. This means that BTC would need about 115 days to add 50M new people onto the block chain, and ETH could manage it in a month - only to have 1 wallet with some amount of coins in it (of course, assuming nothing else whatsoever is happening on the block chain in that time).

Only after you get past this hurdle do you even have access to a L2. Of course, you then need extra transactions on the L1 chain to gain access to the L2 - with LN at least, this scales even worse, as you need some fraction of the number of pairs of people to communicate - so some fraction of (50M)² transactions - which fraction depending on how centralized the network will be.

Then of course, L2s offer little in terms of guarantees for your money unless you can quickly and often close the channel and get the L1 guarantee.

So no, BTC and ETH fundamentally can't scale to a large number of people using them, regardless of how many trillions of transactions per second L2s can do. They are failed technologies for anything similar to their original goals.

It's barely even worth mentionibg that with 1 wallet per real person, you get worse privacy for your transactions than VISA offers you - as many have shown, for any kind of practical privacy you need many temporary wallets, bringing the total number of transactions required just to have a single Satoshi in those wallets to many times more.
The innermost rendering loop in the JS seems to create and destruct an array instance for every single pixel iteration (see https://github.com/dmaynard/chaos-screen-saver/blob/master/s...). I guess that this could be potentially optimized away by the JIT, but it will make things slower or at least less predictable.

I agree, a big issue with deGoogling is the lack of simplicity and cross compatibility, it makes life a lot harder in the digital age. Another issue is that your digital footprint says a lot about you to these data collecting agencies, and using a bunch of privacy focused technology is something that makes a good data point on you as a person and your beliefs. I think the best way to regain privacy is incrementally and changing lifestyle, making yourself less dependent on technology in the first place and substituting closed source solutions with minimal serverless open source solutions.
One issue is that much of the above is about ideal conditions. One has to think about the average car owner.

The speed at which you release breaking change is the speed in which I run in the opposite direction.

Look at all the arguments in this thread "you don't have to" "its optional" "its just a small change" "it hardly even needed fixing".

Do they not realise that me even having to look at this cost me time and money? Do they not realise that when you multiply that out to all your devs at their day jobs and then multiply it across the entire stack of software all pulling these stupid stunts that it adds up to a huge waste of time for everyone involved except the snowflake that thought their breaking change was worth it?

> Hero [Hero of Alexandria, 10-70 AD] even suggested a mechanical use for the effect. By setting a fire on a hollow, airtight altar, the heated air within would flow down a tube into a sphere full of water, which in turn would be pushed up another tube into a hanging bucket. The bucket, when sufficiently heavy with water, would then pull on a rope to open some temple doors. Crucially, when the fire was extinguished, Hero noted that the cooling of the air in the altar would draw the water back into the sphere again, lighten the bucket, and so allow the doors to be closed by a counterweight.

Put the contraption on a chariot, use the ropes to turn the wheels instead of "temple doors" (!) and voilà: you have an auto-mobile.

Even if it's much less practical than using a horse, it's amazing that in almost 2000 years, nobody thought of making that for its sheer entertainment value -- or even to convince people that ghosts exist!

I wouldn't say the source language is not meaningful. If you wrote an ahead-of-time JavaScript-to-WebAssembly compiler and benchmarked the WASM generated by that, it would probably be a lot slower than the WASM generated by the Rust compiler, no?

> I’m baffled as to where that reputation comes from.

It's a deep language with a mix of borrowed syntax(es) and designs. You can pick up Go or Python or Nim in an hour and have a working application, that's fairly unlikely with Rust.

I'd say it took me a year to feel comfortable with Rust - to the point where I could just sit down and write applications without Googling every five minutes - which is far longer than I've spent with any other language.
It's similar, but there are some differences. Notably, my package can implement my trait for your type, while my package (usually? always?) cannot make your type inherit from my virtual base class.
I don't find this idea very compelling at all.

A good/bad axis over time doesn't really tell you anything new about the story that you don't already know, and the only information contained in the "shape" is how many times the good/bad axis is crossed (I don't see how Cinderella is more 'step shaped' than 'boy meets girl' stories). Crossing this good/bad axis already has a better concept to describe it while also encapsulating more complex story events: the plot point.

The idea is completely useless in stories with any ambiguity (most good stories), or absurdist, or anti-hero (like Taxi Driver), or conflicting narratives, or where time isn't uni-directional (such as recollections like Citizen Kane) etc.

as an embedded c/c++ developer I tried Rust briefly a few times over the years, don't feel it's the right fit, due to the way it's static build by default the binary size is just too large, plus the library pool is still much small, and there is no equivalent to c++'s STL for speedy coding when I need it.

yes I can trick for size etc, but overall it just did not fit well so far, for the embedded space that is, but, 'system-programming language' has many use cases in embedded field.

Creator of Appsmith here.

First of all, thank you for trying the product and sharing your feedback. I appreciate it.

While you can modify the source code to remove the watermark, you can also upgrade to the paid edition which helps keep the project sustainable. :) Additionally, you don't have to put in additional effort in keeping the fork up to date with our main repo.

I understand that our choice of single Docker container for hosting Appsmith may be counter-intuitive. We took that route because we were seeing lots of developers struggle with k8s (especially with multiple pods). That's why we actually simplified the experience to optimize for quick starts.

I look forward to your feedback and support for a growing open source project :)

This seems related to the screen size, also.

On my 4k screen (which I run at 100% scaling) on Firefox on Linux I get around 2700 on ES and 7500 on WASM.

But if I reduce the window size to half the screen, I get 3000 for ES and 10000 for WASM.
