Just developed something using MAUI's predecessor Xamarin.Forms

It was perfect and exactly what I wanted. I had experience with XAML and MVVM thanks to Silverlight and WPF, so that explains at least some of why it was such a breeze. But it is way nicer than coding for the web, and I've done my fair share of that.

I was able to port over most of the code to MAUI easily, except for the missing controls. But MAUI is very exciting overall, and I look forward to using it more. After a map control is released I will fully port my app.
>What I love about sourcehut's build system is that for the most part it's just straight up scripts/commands. If I can do it in Linux, then I should be able to get it going without difficulty via sourcehut builds.

FWIW, it's possible to do it for GitHub etc as well. These CI providers try to get you to use their bespoke "Actions", ie custom DSLs that only work with the one CI provider, but nothing prevents you from ignoring all that and just writing an "exec this shell script" step. It's what I do for all my GitHub repos. I can run the script locally just like the GitHub CI does it in its VMs.
Cat, turd, hardwood floor - poor effort, that's not a weird combination. I'm sure you might get the hang of it if you keep trying.

Now, if you don't think some triplet is weird, that's subjective (as I would hope anyone would understand and admit) but to try and claim that:

a) some objects together aren't weird, or

b) those objects together aren't weird

and

c) to make either claim means the claimant doesn't have a valid point

that would really be akin to producing a turd into the conversation, logically and rhetorically. Nice of you to bring up tactics during a discussion about what constitutes a game though, that's worthy of a chuckle.
Winning is not the same as nuking the competition.

> What's the point for everyone else to continue after that?

Fun? Second, third, fourth … place?

I’d imagine most CTF teams don’t go in expecting to win.

And how are the other teams supposed to know anyway?

> "Have you actually tried Blazor? "

Yes. Server-side Blazor is incredibly productive and fantastic for complex UIs, especially for B2B and other SaaS products.

My girlfriend used a 5-digit PIN for over 10 years in the UK and never had any issues that I can recall.

I’d change mine too except I use the PIN so infrequently (99% contactless now days) I’m worried I’d forget the new one!
The main points of this article:

1. "no-code platforms aren’t extensible and scalable after reaching production, despite how critical they’ve become to how companies operate."

2. Make no-code platforms developer-extensible and evolvable, and no-code might become the defining movement of our generation.

Both solid points.

And that's our raison d'être at Railsrocket (https://railsrocket.app) we're a no-code app builder that creates real Rails apps which come with all the benefits of code.

There is lots of truth behind the cliche. I've been trying out it's features the whole time alpha version's been out, and it's on a different level both in terms of usability and performance. Keeping in mind of course that alphas can be quite unstable and require you to untangle yourself every now and then. I'd advise most to wait atleast until beta

> I can only already see the jubilant HN threads how this is a win for NP, when it's actually a testimony of its failure.

All the experts on HN and Reddit already switched from "France is amazing, Germany dumb" to "The French are idiots for not having invested into nuclear power. Germany still dumb."
First side effect in mind is Google. It scrapes public data and uses some AI in search.

But I think you might be on to something with derivative work, perhaps redefining derivative to include AI generated content. Shakespeare or Mona Lisa would be fine. It might allow training AI search engine spiders, but not training AI content generation.

What if someone writes Harry Potter fan fiction but puts an open license for that? AI might not be trained on Harry Potter itself, but it could be trained on millions of semi-legal fan fiction. That's frequently the source of X in the style of Y prompts.
I live in Scandinavia. I'm not from Scandinavia - I moved here in my 30s.

And trust me, even overcast days bring light. It simply isn't as bright as you desire. Lots of folks would rather have more light when it is cloudy. It definitely isn't going to compare to a month of 4-hour-long days with the sun staying low in the sky. Further south, I've seen cloudy days brighter than a sunny day in December where I*m currently living.
> Yeah, seperate stations (edit: platforms, they can share the building) for high-speed trains will probably never happen, sadly. And as long as high speed trains share the platforms with regional trains, disruptions and delays will always affect both.

This is the case for some stations, e.g. Berlin Hbf or Dresden Hbf.
Anecdotally I've never experienced delays due to waiting in front of the station there, unlike e.g. Hamburg or Hannover where platforms are shared.
The vast majority of complex JS SPAs are also multi-megabyte payloads. You can also prerender components the same was SSR is used to mitigate JS initialization.

As far server-side Blazor - it seems like an afterthought because you read about Phoenix Liveview? How is that a serious evaluation? Blazor is a core part of the framework now and the server-side model is always going to be a serious option because it enables functionality that can be done with the disconnected client/WASM mode (like direct DB access without the serialization + API overhead).
Let us name the actual good things :)

The ICE-Terminal at the airport Frankfurt am Main (FRA) is a bless! I live in the middle of southern Germany. Sitting into the ICE and wait for FRA is joyful. It is more comfortable to reach than Stuttgart and Munich. The only annoying part is the old Stuttgart "Kopfbahnhof" but luckily this will be fixed soon. I'm thankful that the peopledecided to go for this effort, despite Germans fear changes.

Sadly ICE tickets are very expensive. When you travel with more than one person using the car is often better. If I could wish for some things:

* Affordable inter-city tickets, instead of very cheap local tickets
* An ICE every 30 Minutes (high frequency, not just high speed)
* Therefore Deutsche Lufthansa can focus more on mid- and long range flights. They prefer that and complement with the Deutsche Bahn.
* As rpadovani I hope for a connection Brenner Base Tunnel
* Munich should also become through station "Durchgangsbahnhof". These "Kopfbahnhof" thing is a weird concept from the old kingdoms and doesn't make sense. Even in Paris this concept is questionable.
* Please Germans. Get more courage and appreciate useful changes. From windmills, airport runways or train lines. It is not about ruining the landscape.

For entertainment, the (in)famous speech of Edmund Stoiber about the Transrapid. It is weird for native speakers, too.

https://youtu.be/f7TboWvVERU

I remember as kid that some people dreamed about the Transrapid (a high speed train, hovering with magnets). The politician above wanted to connect Munich Central-Station with Munich Airport (FJS) with it because the local trains are a pitty.
If you need to run stateful applications take a look at Service Fabric. It has it quirks but we are running it in production and we are pretty happy with it so far.
Depends on the colours used. The author may have already considered their use of colours, or may have just got lucky and not used any clashing colour combinations.
Inaccessible? Just because a text book was priced above $10?
What is there to benchmark between C++, C, Rust, or any other low level compiled language though? With any one of them you can essentially achieve the same assembly code generation, if you try hard enough.

In the end it either boils down to compiler optimisations or library implementations.
"You don't need X because I don't need X and everyone else must have exactly the same requirements and constraints as me" is one of my least favorite takes.

> You don't need Docker, just a version control system (e.g. git).

I've worked where we had to run a lot of systems that we didn't write ourselves and they came in a variety of languages, frameworks, etc. Some Python, some Go, some Ruby, some PHP, some Java, some Fortran, some C++, etc. We did that before Docker and when Docker came out it was a massive simplification for us to be able to just run standard containers where we know there's an entrypoint, some ports, environment variables, etc. rather than have to figure out how to configure all of those things for every kind of environment that we might run into. We could use the same basic build/deploy pipeline for all of them, run them on the same shared servers and know that they weren't conflicting with each other and updates to one wouldn't blow up the .so files that a different one used, etc. Docker doesn't really compete with a version control system like git; if anything, it's closer to an application package format like .deb or .rpm, but with a bit of a different focus.

> You don't need overpriced cloud offerings in the first place.

If you've done the cost analysis and the cloud offerings are cheaper than running your own datacenter, then they're not really "overpriced" and maybe you do need them. If you're just thinking "rent a server from Hetzner or a colo or run a workstation under your desk" and that those options are always cheaper than the cloud then you've clearly never worked somewhere that needed regulatory compliance (HIPAA, PCI, SOC2, etc).

> First of all, pick the right language.

If you're on a greenfield project and have that luxury, great. A lot of developers have to work with existing codebases and products though.

> Kubernetes, you do not need it. Go can handle about 500 million visitors a month on 12 year old hardware per 1 server. You will almost certainly not reach these numbers.

It must be wonderful to live in a world where all requests scale the same. What if each visitor is using your service to transcode 2GB video files? Or running massive climate modeling simulations? Or training an ML algorithm on a few TB of data? 500 million of those per month on one 12 year old server? Awesome. Sign me up.

I've done all of these things with and without tools like Docker and Kubernetes. Yes, there are workloads and environments where they'd be overkill and add more complexity than they're worth. But there's also very good reasons beyond hype that those tools became well known and widely used.

Or, you can just keep assuming that all those developers out there are just idiots compared to you. I doubt you'll change your mind, so I'll just hope I never have to work with you.
it is high time we called 'PR' what it is - corporate propaganda - in order to strip the discipline of the legitimacy it somehow retains. It's basically paid for BS, and when it comes to climate change, everyone is going to be paying the price

This hits close to home. I am extremely introverted but I have not had problems in this area because I was specifically told by someone in sr. Management how important "visibility" is.

But what I have witnessed is that this mindset rewards incompetence even insists on it at times. It doesn't matter how good you are at what you do, it only matters if you can go out of your way and explain it in a way multiple levels of middle management can take notice. So naturally people engage in things that can easily be displayed in powepoints and don't take up a lot of time. Fresh talented guys work hard and get noticed by their manager and immediate peers but no reports,papers,powerpoints so I hear some manager bad mouthing them and acting like the person that rushed through their work and put together a nice presentation (who is gonna take a closer look that knows what they are doing?) is a rockstar. And everything takes months because of this. Simple things with minimal effort don't get done because you can't get a person who is also interested in presenting it to managers to work on it (because they don't want to do too much so that it won't be expected of them).

People in tech that like their work tend to be introverts. You shouldn't judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree. Maybe some places do need a tree climbing fish hence "skilled talent shortage"?

When I worked at a tech company (don't anymore) I worked with a lot more talented folks but on top of that I was never asked to be more visible, my work was enough and my talented coworkers progressed to other things. Is it because some businesses naturally prioritize different abilities?

I call it the anti-hacker culture lol. Just an observation, I get it either way.
Let me get this straight. You let 3 state agents trick you into strapping a government tracking device to your child?
I bought somewhat counterfeit books at least twice on Amazon, several years ago: a real bookseller confused a probably legit cheap paperback reprint with the "good" hardcover edition of an expensive book (it was such a bad edition that it claimed the same ISBN) and an unknown seller sent me a horrible POD paperback instead of the claimed old stock paperback.
In both cases, discussion with people provided full refunds; but now ordering old and/or expensive books on Amazon seems futile.
Supermarket chain "Woolworths" - commonly called "Woolies" - had a campaign using the Woolies name a while back. These short names are so ubiquitous in Australia that of course they'll eventually use them, if only tongue in cheek.

I noticed this some months back when a deals site posted a complete collection of The Witcher for £1. It was very clearly not uploaded by the original publisher/author, but that didn't seem to deter people. They were just happy to be getting a collection of ebooks for a quid, and didn't seem to care that the money was going to a pirate
Sounds more a problem with the kindle and its software than with the pdf format itself. Books are typically set at around 65 characters per line. This is perfectly readable even on a small phone screen, in landscape orientation and without margins. Think about it: a typical phone is taller than the width of a paperback book. The space is there, if you cannot get it to work it's a software problem.
At a small org, what is the advantage of Kubernetes over the vendor provided application runners i.e. AWS AppRunner or Google's App Engine?
How much worse is support for c# than for GDScript? We want to move away from unity and the whole team is already fluent in c#.
It really is the way to do it. Then you are also version-controlling your build-setup and if the cloud or your self-host solution is down at the wrong time you can instantly run an equivalent build locally.

The cloud is really about one thing and one thing only. Vendor lock-in. I don't accept that. And I don't see any sensible reason for it.
How do you log the people who just bypass the thing entirely? Any cookie banners my ad-blocker doesn't kill automatically, I just right click on and remove from the page.
The problem is that deadlines are often too tight because the person responsible is usually not the one who suffers the most. If this is the case, the result is low code quality and bad feelings because the developers are either overworked or feel guilty. Instead, it is best to create a priority list of tasks and review it regularly.
Did you miss a "not" in the last part of that?

My instincts tell me that there’s no way Go is larger than C# worldwide. Large enterprises are still predominantly on C# and Java… Tiobe index, whatever you may think of it, does not support that… What’s your source?

The interface/dsl should have to be really easy though to make it worth it. E.g., if you are making your own buildpack on heroku you have gone too far.
The whole idea should be ubiquity in knowledge of these platforms. The idea that you can easily hire someone or expect someone to have these skills. Kubernetes might not be simple but it is becoming ubiquitous and that is worth something in the long run.

So if you are looking for the easy solution, use a SaaS / PaaS that really is turnkey and, for example is not just another peaky abstraction of kubernetes. You are choosing an easy solution so you should not need to invest a lot of your energy. Likewise recognize that when you need more customization that you might need to jump ship instead of investing in ducktaping your SaaS/PaaS.
As they say on the website; "Many citizens have devices with USB ports and SD card slots", but more citizens have just eyes and no USB ports/SD card slots, so why not send balloons filled with flyers instead, to reach even more people?
“Activities are about one thing and one thing only” is a fallacy.

It's good to remind people about weapons research interests. It's less good to completely dismiss the interests concerning energy production, or basic scientific research. They don't go away just “omgz military funding!”

Is it? People seem to think that planes are fancy and new and trains are old technology, therefore it's absurd that flying is cheaper. If you think about all the infrastructure that needs to be built and maintained for high speed rail that doesn't for flying, it makes a lot more sense. Also consider that high speed rail is in may ways just as technologically sophisticated and new as airplanes.
You're ridiculous.

Please describe the purpose of my statement. Am I trying to undermine your argument? Or am I just trying to characterize you for the purposes of characterizing you and it is unrelated to any argument you may have? How could you, or anyone who is not a mind-reader, possibly tell one way or the other? You can't, and no one can, not here, not anywhere, not ever. This is called a counter example, and it neatly destroys both your's and the OP's flawed arguments.

Ad hominem quite literally means, "to the man." It does not mean, "to the man only for the purposes of x, y, z." An ad hominem fallacy is any statement whatsoever about the man. If you said, "circles are round," and I said in reply, "you are blue," this is an ad hominem fallacy regardless of purpose because it specifically regards you.

idk where the author got their definition of ad hominem, but they're misinterpreting the meaning in the same exact way I would be misinterpreting the meaning of tires if I argued that "tires are tread for wheels for vehicles for the purposes of sticking to the road," so any object that has no purpose for sticking to the road can't be a tire... like what's tied to that rope hanging from a tree branch that people swing on. Can't be a tire because there is no road sticking here. This is the same mistake.

Ad hominem is merely arguing "to the man," and the extra stuff, "for the purposes of undermining their argument" is not strictly part of its definition, but merely explains, when one's informal and formal logic is not strong, why the fallacy is employed: if I can't attack your argument, I can attack you... just not validly or soundly.

And fwiw, I was not equivocating because I did not introduce ambiguity with a word having one meaning in part of the argument and the same word having a different meaning in another part of the argument. When one acts with purpose, then one acts with intent. It could not be otherwise, because the definition of purpose is to have as one's objective or intent. I employed logical equivalence, not equivocation. It's not as though I used "purpose" to mean a marine mammal misspelled later in my argument, but if I did, that would be equivocation.
My grandfather was in the "old IRA" during the Irish war of independence.

I watched a presentation of these guys at SHA2017 and someone asked the same thing. Here's the full presentation in case you're interested: https://media.ccc.de/v/SHA2017-120-hack_north_korea

As far as I recall their answer was that a USB drive can store much more. Video, entire books, etc. However leaflets are also done.

Personally I don't know if it's worth the risk knowing that their local OS ("Red Star OS") can fingerprint files. But I guess they know what they're doing.
