Man, I tried out Blazor over the last few days. I really wanted to love it (I love C#), and it looks like it might be good one day, but I found it sadly lacking. I couldn't even add a mouse event to a canvas element. I had to install an extension package to even use a canvas (BECanvas), and then that extension package didn't even have mouse events. I have to say, thats so absurdly basic of a thing to be missing that it made me call the entire library into question: what other extremely basic things could it be missing as well?
OTOH even stuff as old as Windows Forms (which literally shipped with .NET 1.0 - that's 2001!) still works and it actually has maintainers. You don't have to chase the shiny new stuff.

The simplest and cheapest self hosted K8s I found is kube-Hetzner [1]. It puts k3s on MicroOS on Hetzner Cloud; for a three node Cluster I pay around 50 EUR per month (3shared AMD Cores, 4GB RAM per Node, 200 GB Storage, 1 TB Backup, small loadbalancer). A single server with the same spec and the same storage and backup and a floating IP would go for about 25 EUR/month. For me, k8s is worth the difference.

Every benchmark is a cheat and not a real-world problem.

I also thought their benchmark is a cheat. But it is not. It is testing exactly what the benchmark was testing in that scenario. That is why TechEmpower Benchmark suite is so powerful. It uses different web server scenarios (connection, JSON parsing, database connections, ...). The different test case implementation .NET and others have are making sure no other factor is influencing this. For example: when you benchmark connections why dealing with MVC, validation and database connections.

It is not .NET who cheats, it is the others who do not properly isolate the tested performance aspect.

And to make the comparison a bit more real and day-to-day applicable, you need to pick the right framework configuration (like aspcore-mw @ 80% / aspcore-mvc @ 37%) and compare with other reasonable scenarios (like express @ 1% / spring @ 2% / quarkus @ 8%). Both are then far of the top 10 ten list but still comparable. The top 10 combinations are for cases where developer productivity does not matter but throughput is the key (e.g. a DoH resolver or a system like a Cache / Database).

The Barnes & Noble Nook Glowlight 4 has an e-ink display and physical buttons on both sides. This is not a recommendation. I have never held one in my hand and the last time I had anything to do with the Nook ecosystem was over 10 years ago. I just know it exists and meets those 2 criteria.
There's no reason to discount front-end work from "programming languages". You choose python over typescript for machine learning because the ecosystem is there.

You choose typescript over python because Brython and JavaScripthon and Transcrypt have no ecosystem that makes more sense than using NPM, and the people who like to program in python prefer the challenges of other domains than what's in the web browser.

That just makes "most popular programming language" a silly metric. It doesn't mean that nobody uses the language because you ignore all the people who use it for things you aren't interested in.

The par3 spec has been in development for so long that I have a hard head in it's completion and uptake.

I've thought of other integrations as well. A file system that would have integrated parity (much like ZFS/btrfs checksumming, but then recoverable up to the parity you allocated). Of even integrated into 'regular' file formats: there could be an MP3 tag/header that holds parity for it's data stream. Alas, it seems that people have decided this will be solved through other means, par2 is rare as it is.

Shameless plug: I wrote a GUI tool to make it slightly easier to work with par2 and a big dir of archive data: https://pypi.org/project/par2deep/

> The Libertarian movement is inherently individualistic.

Where do people get these ideas? Libertarianism is all about freedom, including the freedom to cooperate with others.

For example, a baseball team is all about voluntary cooperation for a common goal. Nobody is forced to play. Baseball has nothing whatsoever inconsistent with Libertarianism.

What Libertarianism lacks is forcing people to conform and cooperate.

No, a non-overtime company does not have you building connection 3-4.8 hours a day. That is huge amount of time and does not happen in that setup, unless you are all slacking.
Where do you get the idea I am on the side of a terrorist group? I mentioned loyalist terrorists because although I don't consider myself as belonging to either side, my grandmother was staunchly British and therefore I know more about the loyalist terrorists. I don't know what the republican terrorists are up to because I've never lived near one of their areas.

I believe violence is only ever justified defensively and even then only as a last resort. The sooner that generation of parasitic drug barons either kill each other or die naturally the better for everyone.

A lot of people barely notice poor CRI lights. Heck people will mix bulbs of different color temps and not even bat an eye.

The issue is definitely the power usage. It’s not reasonable to dedicate that much power for the relatively minimal gain.

Also, CRI is a relatively poor measurement of color quality because it measures a very desaturated color palette. You can have two high CRI lights and they will still not match. There are newer color rendering indices like TLCI, SSI and TM-30 to account for this.
Aside from being "cheap romance", these actually deal with complex problem-solving.

That is true, but its strengths tend to outweigh its weaknesses.

Nothing is as universal as typescript / JavaScript. Unlike other languages you also don’t have to context change when you’re transitioning from working on the backend to the front end. Everything also tends to be rewritten for node eventually.

There's a book, Everything In Its Place, Dan Charnas, which does a good analysis of the analogies of cooking and productivity in the office.

Basically it recommends doing the "process" tasks first, the ones that the rest rely on. In this case, it would be grilling burgers. In the office, it might be something like assigning tasks or approving PRs.

Charnas recommends that planning starts by "first things first" as opposed to say, the Tim Ferriss, Brian Tracy, or Eisenhower methodology of most important things first. And often the first thing is to figure out which things come first.

And yeah, the book also recommends finishing where possible. A dish 90% done might as well be 0% done, but it occupies mental space while it's not done.

I'm a cofounder at Lumina - we're a consumer hardware startup looking to build products like this.

We've done a lot of research on lighting in pursuit of building a better webcam (our main product). We found the lights on the market (i) aren't very bright, (ii) aren't smart in any way, and (iii) are way too expensive for the functionality you're getting.

Personally, I use a 100 watt LED corn bulb but it's not very pretty.

We're considering building a light as our next product. Imagine: a light that's super bright, adapts its color and intensity to the weather / time of day / other lights in your room. (If anyone has ideas here, please reach out!)

Hot reload for ASP.NET works fine nowadays in VS and even with older versions of .NET.

Dependency handling is still a large problem with .NET. Especially since current is often used instead of LTS. There is also no good way of sharing code between applications.

Arrow functions, btw, solves the this/that problem in JS making React development easier etc.
> Church(religion)and State. It is the corner stone of modern democracy and our modern western legal systems.

Yes, but so is freedom of (practicing -- including and especially as a public official) religion. One doesn't go without the other. If the people are secular let them elect secular leaders if not the whatever their faith is. Organized religion (or secularism) had no place in government.

> Edited to add: I think France is doubling down on just one religion that is a minority with an violent history in modern France. Sharia law is problematic for the rest of the world. France cannot abide by public floggings or fatwas issues by religious leaders against its own citizenry.

Ok, then democracy is working so long as the views of the muslims in the areas they live is reflected in their local and federal governments. But the rights of the minority is not being respected. Look at wearing hijab for example, does a person not have the right to wear what they want, especially as a practice of religion? Why did they ban that?

> I am curious…there are dozens of countries that are Islamic states and republics where the preferred religious aspects of Islam can be practiced including those that are unacceptable to the rest of the world. Shouldn’t they have an open door policy and offer citizenship for all practicing Muslims? They won’t be a minority anymore.

How is that relevant? Most muslim countries are not democratic and some are fairly open for other muslims.

> Israel does this.

Israel as it is now exits because of this policy, it is the only Jewish state but there is no "islam nation", ISIS was trying to build that in their own messed up way though. Countries like saudi or indonesia had national identities before islam.

> India should probably do it too but likely not possible. Islam has already many established Islamic states where Muslims can live without any religious discrimination.

Your answer to religious bigotry in the west is "let them move elsewhere"???

> Democracy demands separation of Church/Religion and State. Islam is incompatible with democracy but has a right to exist. So the solution is for Islamic countries to unroll the red carpet to welcome any and all practicing Muslims.

I can also say atheism is incompatible with democracy because it exists solely in hostility to theistic religions (unlike agnostics). But so long as atheists don't try (or rather stop) to prevent religious folks from practicing their religion in a way that does not infringe on rights they are welcome. Same can be said about islam or any other religion, the individuals are welcome to participate in democracy in any capacity and the people's right should not be affected because it is constitutionally protected and anyaw these people pass should be challenged and invalidated if it infringes on rights. Your hostility is founded in bigotry if your rights are already protected in a way a muslim or other participant in democracy can't infringe on it.

A fully patched copy of XP, with all the group/local policies set to lock it down, is very secure.

In a lot of cases, it may look like XP, but it's actually XP Embedded, which has a lot of stuff stripped out, which reduces the attack surface significantly.

It costs money to upgrade the checkout application for a new OS, and put it through rigorous testing - These things need to work almost 24/7 without crashing or needing admin intervention.

Thanks, I feel at least possibly hypocritical right now because I’m at a turning point in my career so while I’m making these comments, I’m over here calculating that I could retire in x years versus 2.5*x years if I could manage to snag one of these big tech jobs (I have the skills at least).

It can be a challenge being one of, if not the only, programmer/etc at a more domain specific company (gotta hold your ground) - and working at an actual tech company would certainly tool me up for future startups/etc. Or … my cost of living would go up and I’d be forever on that wheel.

I’ve been lucky enough to now really have the option financially, but I do pride myself on when I really didn’t have the option I chose scraping by with barely any money over something not in renewables for years. It helped not having any dependents. And ultimately through some luck it made up for the grunt years. Except now I’m old and rambling on hacker news, so retiring sooner is appealing at the moment.
Yeah, that’s why companies usually demand 3-5 weeks of programming language experience when hiring.
I don't agree that you should intentionally endanger the safety and lives of others to get some extra elbow room.

The most important thing you can do on a road (aside from situational awareness) is be predictable- that others have an idea of what you're going to do.

If you're behaving erratically or crossing into pedestrian crosswalks so it doesn't look quite so much like you're running a red light, you're seriously increasing the odds of colliding with a vehicle or person.

This is really cool, would you mind sharing the project code? I'd be interested in automatically updating/publishing my notes in such a way with org mode.
Programming language efficiency from a developer's standpoint is not measured in bytes written in the source code, because typing characters is never the bottleneck when writing code.

Even if it were, most code isn't "fire and forget", and so for most code the cost is dominated by maintenance cost, which has more to see with reading than writing code.

Languages that are concise are so because they either express information very densely, or express less information (via for example ignoring error handling or making it implicit with exceptions). In practice I find that such languages are much harder to maintain, because the missing information has to be rebuilt by the reader.

Unfortunately a) this happened like 20 years ago and I don't remember all details b) I'm not very good at explaining things especially not when it comes to explaining thought processes. Which in any case is a very personal thing, so it's not because it works for me that it works for you. Could be, or not. Basically the point I was trying to make earlier :)

Anyway here's an attempt: key for me was first getting a proper, deep understanding of how something works. At that point I would just spend time doing that alone, not caring about how, not caring about spending extra time on reading on tangential topics which wouldn't even be part of the exam. Just internalize the principle. Can't explain how that works, sorry.

After accomplishing that, I'd just read through the text once or twice more to pick up some details. Or in case of math for instance to go over some proof again to make sure the individual steps are also clear. Turned out that's then enough to almost completely memorize the whole thing. I.e., as opposed to just starting with the idea of memorizing everything through merely repetition.

I'd visualize the principle of why that meomrization works as a tree: the phase where the understanding is built is like a leafless tree in winter where it's not too hard to remember the location of the main branches. Once that is done, it's easier to 'hook' details onto that: the smaller branches attached to the bigger ones. And then the leaves onto that. Same tree, same shape, just more detail.

Whereas when I was younger studying would often basically be the counterpart: starting by memorizing the location of one single leaf, then another one, and so on. Often never seeing the shape of the whole tree in the end, and obviously also often forgetting the location of many leaves.
