I’ve never met anybody who was using angular who could actually justify why they were using it at all. They just use it because everybody else is.
> using the deepest mine * land area of earth gives enough lithium to build batteries to store roughly 200 years world of the total electricity generation of the entire planet.

Strip mine the entire planet to a depth of multiple miles, and the resulting batteries are still few enough to talk about in human terms. This is not good.
My bank is FDIC insured, so up to $250,000 is guaranteed to come back to me unless the US Government fails, and then the blockchain would probably not work either.

Also, how can crypto not be seized at will? If they want to take your hardware wallet, they can just keep that just the same. Not to mention getting people to give over the keys if it is kept in a centralized exchange, which a lot of people are.

Wills, deeds, leases etc... are worthless on their own, with or without a blockchain. Sure they can be documented on a blockchain, but the blockchain has no ability to enforce the documents in the real world. If your ownership for somethings is on the blockchain, and someone steals it, then proof of ownership does not matter if there are not government agents with guns willing to enforce your ownership. Libertarians always believe this weird non-aggression principle, as if someone with more guns would respect your rights to property. Civil forfeiture only works because the government has the most guns.

I wouldn't be surprised if some people at google are working on a transactional approach to DOM manipulation, or perhaps something even exists already I'm not aware of. I think what we already have is implicit transactions, where updates are batched, so long as they don't depend on each other.
I'm hoping self-driving cars will take people from the burbs to the cities, but then people can use public transportation and bikes in the cities.
Great timing! I've lately been studying up on Prolog and miniKanren, and increasingly I've been wishing that I had one or the other embedded in my usual programming languages. I believe there is already at least one miniKanren implementation in each of JS and Python, but it's cool to see this pop up.

One thing I've wondered about with such systems as performance: I would be nervous about pathological cases leading to really bad performance or even DOS attacks. My understanding of Prolog in particular is that sometimes in order to get your program to run to completion requires a nontrivial understanding of the backtracking algorithm them so you can judiciously place cuts, etc.

Inspired by Will Byrd's many presentation on quines, this leads me to wonder: what if you had a logic language that does not run at runtime, but that generates code with certain properties according to some set of rules? It's such a thing possible? Are there theoretical results on that subject?
Ask HN: Can any front end developers help out?
I'm trying something new by asking the HN community for some help. Let's see how this goes.

I'm working on a startup called Livecycle - http://livecycle.io/ - a platform that adds a contextual collaboration layer on top of PR preview environments.

Our current offering generates collaborative preview ends per-PR.

We’re now working on an SDK so that we can add this rich collaboration to any existing preview environment as well.

And here’s where I need some help - I’m trying to better understand how devs/teams are using PR preview environments today (what platform do you use to create them? Do they help you facilitate collaboration between technical and non-technical stakeholders? If you could add the Livecycle collaboration functionality to your existing environment, would that be a benefit to you?).

To make life a bit easier, I've collected a few specific questions here so anyone relevant can send us quick responses - https://tinyurl.com/livecycle-sdk.

THANK YOU for your consideration! If you have time to share your experience and wisdom, it would be tremendously helpful for us . We'll even send a gift card and some swag to the first few qualified respondents.

What is an isogeny? (2019)
Have you tried creating it in multiple steps, using the "Edit" button? You can erase the parts of the image you want to change, and you can even change the prompt at each step.

If the pig or donkey doesn't look right, you could erase just that part of the image using the same prompt to get a different look.

For example, to create the image you want, I would:

1. Start with the basic prompt: "a pig and donkey playing poker"

2. Generate random variations of my favourite image from that to see how far I can get from that.

3. Edit as necessary with the same prompt to get the right look for the pig/donkey.

4. Erase a section of the image next to the pig and use a prompt like "pig using a laptop" to get DALL-E to generate a laptop in that position.

Nukes will soon be unable to find buyers for their power at a price they can offer, most of the time, so will be unable to collect enough revenue to continue operating, anywhere they are not propped up from money coerced by taxation.

> In a venn diagram "pedestrians" and "car owners" would be nearly a perfect circle. Singling them out as opposing groups with conflicting interests isn't helpful.

I live in a city where almost 40% of households do not own cars but our public space has been massively reconfigured to prioritize car owners, not just with traffic lanes and signal priority but also huge subsidies for car storage at the expense of other potential use of public space.

Despite this, any time someone tries to make something better the public planning process will inevitably have car owners loudly complaining about being discriminated against if something will remove even a single parking space or suggest that they pay market rates.

"I also discovered, during my education and early research experience, that you do not have to know that much to do research. With a good background education, one can very quickly absorb the necessary specialized knowledge for a specific research area.

My point is that this feature is unrelated to vDOM, it happens to be implemented by a major vDOM lib.

The whole mobile gaming industry today is just "casinos for kids", imo. Add with the knowledge of psychology they know precisely how to develop an addiction in their users.

That sounds like you are bundling the whole node_modules directory. Have you looked into Alpine based images and vendoring js dependencies into a bundle? 1 GB seems too large even for nodejs.
It has a hard time with the computer, but without, the results are almost usable:

Chances are that someone with prompt engineering experience could get it to produce the desired output with some more poking and prodding.

It'll certainly raise the lower-end bar for custom illustrations/stock footage.
It's batteries included and highly leverages reactive programming (rxjs is first class). The dependency injection is a really nice and clean pattern. I have nothing but good things to say about Angular as both a React and Angular user. They both do the same things in different ways and depending on the team, may provide benefits over the other but it's case-by-case.

I've also never met a React user who could explain why React is supposedly better than Angular, other than because everybody else is.
If anyone is interested in the tech behind this; I used the Django rest framework and vanilla javascript to write the extension. I wrote it to be compatible with Firefox and chrome with the firefox polyfill which worked a treat in development.

Until I came to publish and I had to convert the chrome extension to manifest V3 which was not as easy as I thought it would be.

The chrome approvals process also took way longer then firefox did!

For many people property taxes serve this function. Billionaires can afford the taxes without using the land to produce though.

My family owns some ranch and farmland that we farmed for 150 years. My retired father still has to grow hay and lease grazing land to just make the property tax requirement.

Do you have any that isn't presented by people who actively spread Russian propaganda?.

Perhaps an article from a website that isn't actively known for misleading reporting and being sympathetic to authoritarian regimes.

The wikipage on the grey zone is pretty damning. I mean using these people as a source for anything on the west that is critical would be a huge mistake.

Is DALL-E deterministic, like if I type the same phrase it will always generate the same images?
Ideas from a non-programmer: Perhaps you can cross-seed somehow, would it be possibly to use your sandbox to procedurally generate imagery in Photopea, for example? Can you pair Photopea up with something like processing.org's p5.js (I think that's what they call it) so people can do image processing use JS and outputting into Photopea?

Also, fwiw, I've read--and consider it useful to reflect on--the idea that one should avoid comparison with others and seek first to compare yourself with yourself: have you improved, are you nearer your goals, have you increase your fulfilment ...
Those solutions won't work on macOS, though.
WASM came up way later than TypeScript and Webpack did.

Also, no direct DOM access. You still need a Javascript proxy for that.
So what does this have to do with 8 million people?

If the survey was of 2,079 people, then how does this extrapolate to 8 million? They say 23% of the respondents represent 8 million people, but that does not mean that 8 million people actually used crypto.
It's purely luddite reasoning. The real objection is that it makes artists less valuable.

Which is unfortunate, because they already arent that valuable (save for the top ~1%). But it's not a good reason to oppose DALL-E.
Interesting to me how close the formula is to entropy:

> EVs are great, and I'd love to see them replace ICE cars, but they are not enough. We need to rethink our dependence on the car.

Isn't it telling when the defacto figure head of EV is forcing people back into the office while jet-setting around the World on his own private jet, and having more kids as time goes on if if EV alone were real issue? It's a total lack of conviction to actually disrupt the status quo from which they benefit from.

This article [0] outlines what really works rather well: economic incentives. Anything else is PR and window dressing.

If tech really wants to do something that matters to that end, it's not biyung a P100 S, they should really reflect on whether building or maintaining another CRUD for a 100K+ really matters at all? And what they could help build to incentivize and advance WFH from tools so that more Industry can transition out of that system in order to reduce and curb unnecessary emissions of GHG.

Obviously you cannot transition everything to WFH, but just focusing on the amount that was during COVID would be enough to offset a lot of the problem.

Everything else seems to be getting there, it is getting close to it solving a lot of the issues if we put the right incentives in place and the only real impediment seems to be political which is tied to propping up needless business models that only contribute to this problem to the detriment of everyone on this Planet.

The line you’re presumably referencing is for four hours of storage.

That’s nowhere near enough to sensibly compare with a nuclear plant.
How could cost scale with surface area? The mass of a nuclear power plant scales proportionally to volume. The thickness of a pressure vessel or pipe increases as you scale it up, at constant pressure.
Efficiently Computing SSA Form and the Control Dependence Graph (1991) [pdf]
I don't buy this argument. Cars are extremely heavy these days, and while they have better control, they're also much faster on average. On top of that, there are bigger vehicles going around, like enormous trucks and SUVs with horrendous blind spots and horrible handling.

You are comparing a singular aspect which is antithetical to the wholesome approach. If you don't actually like chopping wood or enjoy the sight of chopped wood or brawny men chopping wood (no wonder the birth rate is so high) or any other aspect of the chore then yes it is a very inefficient process. Burning wood outside of a city is not an emissions problem IMO.
How I Write History, or a Window into My Crazy
I think the future of the high performance web involves a websocket and streaming content at the element-level. Preloading all source for a session that will use only a subset of the features is wasteful in my opinion.

Even on high latency and crappy connections this can provide a better UX. TCP is still applicable on that websocket, so it's not like things will arbitrarily derail because of some packet loss.

If your web application is doing anything useful, it probably has to periodically check in with the server anyways. Why not just keep all of the state on the server and stream the UI to the client in a more granular fashion?
if it means we get back the all the other features and attitudes from that era, sure, I'd love to go back to that.
Yes, I have tried a lot, and still haven't gotten close to the desired end-effect.

I maybe want to shift my claim. I am not sure that it's impossible to create this particular image but that it's almost certainly cheaper to hire someone to draw the exact image I have in mind.

I think there is also a new proffesion comming: a DALL-E prompter job.

I like this idea. When doing a literature review I make summary notes of the paper which I store with it. I use zotero for this which has an add-in (zotfile) that allows me to extract highlights and annotations I make in the pdf to separate notes; this is super handy. So, if those summary notes were somehow made public and organized and if many people did this, they would be a nice source of paper summaries from several perspectives.
A more descriptive title would be, "TI-83 LCD ribbon repair".

I have my old TI-86 which seems to have the same problem so I'll have to try the same technique.

The TI calculators were amazing environments for learning assembly. There are a bunch of good tutorials and the computer is relatively simple and you get direct access to the display.

They may not report those crimes to the police, but police reports aren't the only way to find out data on crime rates. Stores will still report shoplifting loses to their insurance companies for example.

OP's comment is:

>Which is a good reason to add a reply-notification system

I share the view that omitting reply notifications is a good tool to prevent flamewars.

What I would like to have are notifications for entire debates. Right now it is useless to add comments to old submissions because nobody is going to read them. If there were subscribers to debates, the audience could return.

To prevent flamewars, subscribers should only be notified when e.g. 20 comments are added to a debate. That leaves time for everybody to cool off and hopefully creates enough substance that it's worth returning to a debate.
This really annoys me, because I see the following chain.

1) Healthcare is too important for light touch regulation =>

2) Big political fight over regulation =>

3) Competition in healthcare largely disappears =>

4) Oh no something went wrong, now we have to adjust what human rights are available based on how prepared the government is for a rather predictable crisis (COVID wasn't/isn't even the bad-case for a highly contagious respiratory disease).

There are people seriously trying to argue that walking more than single-digit kilometres from a body's home depends on what the government's hospital policy was 5 years ago. In complete seriousness, this is crazy. I thought we'd agreed that basic rights were a thing but it turns out large segments of the population and bureaucrats seriously don't believe that.

And exactly what we got to show for this is questionable. Border controls are the only government tool that I have faith in after that pandemic. Even the vaccine we only managed because people agreed that the usual safety procedures would take to long and that we could skip them because the economic damage caused by fearful people was too great. The governments of the world caused a lot of problems these last few years.
Gosh, I’m so pleased for all the replies here. I felt the same way. Submodules made me feel stupid, like my mental model of Git was just entirely broken.

What I wanted to do was be able to have people work against a pinned version of a different Git repo, then update the sub module whenever we felt the need and handle the build breaks. This task seemed impossible to do correctly over time, which I just could not understand. How was the submodule getting updated when I didn’t call anything? Why are submodule changes appearing in other commits? I just couldn’t figure it out.

I am joining a new project and they started talking about submodules and I what I said was “yeah uhhuh cool” but inside I was pretty nervous . But I couldn’t be sure it wasn’t because I was a dummy and they knew exactly what they were doing, so I kept quiet.
Wikipedia is right there, if you care.
This is what I've seen. It also makes sense from a legal point of view (at least here in Europe) and more importantly, from a practical one. If you're Here or TomTom you want to provide good data and you need OEMs to share theirs in return. However keeping (or worse, sharing) events associated to VINs or other PII is just a liability.
