"In experimenting with analog pointing devices we have found the Pointing Stick can best the mouse in many situation"

Personally if I have the luxury of space for a mouse I use a mix of the mouse and the trackpoint, but when I use a laptop on my laps (couch, car, plane) then I use the trackpoint exclusively.
The market made a mistake and the resulting E waste is a bad externality for the environment.
your plan gonna at least subsidize the poor people who barely make their bills at their current electricity rates?
3. An electric tractor with current tech batteries is inconvenient because it makes a tractor a lot heavier without providing a measurable benefit to work performance. A heavier tractor stresses the ground more.

4. You can fill an ICE tractor with a full tank of gas in about 10-15 minutes to get through the whole day. An electric tractor with current tech needs to get charged multiple times a day - impossible to use for time dependent farm work like harvesting.
Great, now we’re going to have a schism…
With Linux today I can mostly use the terminal just for what is best done on the command line. With FreeBSD I always feel like I'm digging through the filesystem and terminal to get basic OS stuff done.
It could be the contrived example, but REST URIs are supposed to represent resources, not UI pages or elements. When the endpoints start to become coupled to the UI the backend can get messy, as you described, very quickly.
I see where you're going with this ;)
Sadly, I found many other devices are also designed to become trash. The battery in my Philips Sonicare toothbrush not only can’t be replaced — it’s fixed so firmly inside that the manual says you have to take a hammer to it just to throw it away (because batteries can cause trash fires). “The battery is firmly placed, in a water-resistant handle, to ensure safety, durability, longevity and robust performance,” says Philips.

It makes me sad to see them claiming waterproofing as the reason, when the art of sealing easily disassembled components has already been perfected over many centuries... the other comment here mentions flashlights, another object of a similar shape which does often come in a waterproof version with replaceable batteries. I have no doubt they could design an electric toothbrush which is both waterproof and has replaceable batteries; they just don't want to, because they'd rather you buy a whole new one.

Adding to the irony, water ingress and resulting damage often occurs to them anyway, but not at the bottom where they seal in the batteries; instead, water gets in around the shaft seal and then corrodes the insides from the top. Once again, it would probably be an easy task to make a better seal design, but that would cost just a tiny bit more than they'd like.

I can’t say that any long running production process like a webserver ever benefitted from leaking memory like a sieve and being a single threaded event loop designed for a UI event loop, but hey, someone has to keep cloud providers awash in cash.

In the browser?
There’s a deliberate 10 year period where certain browsers made a point to not support or rather distort standards, and another decade before that where a certain vendor that rhymes with bicrosoft featured embrace-extend-extinguish tactics that didn’t achieve much but annoy devs, but I digress. It’s a bit like CSS, aka a mess. You memorize a caniuse table and always polyfill promises

We could have landed on Mars already if we had funding.

There’s no incentive for the state to fund it so Musk has to do it while still relying on government funding for other SpaceX projects. If we get the National Security elites on board we’ll be there so fast it’ll make your head spin. We could have AGI 2-5 years sooner than we otherwise will (2030) if the government wasn’t run by geriatric humanities majors. These problems are mosyly downsyream from money, lots of it, and you need Manhattan project scale budgets for them.

AGI and fusion also require some theoretical breakthroughs but Mars? Mars doesn’t. Making it livable is hard but just landing there just means scaling up the moon landing.
Because it is also demonstrating itself capable of suppressing all personal freedom, constant surveillance of its populace, and genocide of entire cultures. The US also has its problems, but there is no reason we can't fund the same types of projects without autocratic, genocidal tendencies.

It's not general purpose, but colorforth has a really weird and different editor. Coloring words "types" the word (definition label, compiled, immediate, comment, etc), which allows the language and compiler to be dead simple. It really makes me wonder why modern languages aren't designed with IDEs in mind - instead of loading the syntax with complexity, separate it out into the fancy editor layer! Color/text formatting is probably not the best paradigm, but the potential of editor-first language design hasn't really been explored anywhere near as far as it deserves.

As far as conventional editors go, I'm a big fan of vis. Multiple cursors, structural regex, and vi keybindings are just too nice to give up.

Python has both eval and lambda these days, and is not normally considered mind bending nor a Lisp. Even C++ and Java have lambdas these days.

(To be fair, Python's 'eval' operates on strings, Lisp likes its eval to operate on something much more (but not quite) like abstract syntax trees. But it would be relatively straightforward to make a version of Python that uses s-expressions and has an eval that works on them; without changing anything else about the language.)

Apart from matters of parsing, being able to build elegant circular-meta-interpreters isn't too hard nor special, if your language is reasonably simple but still has enough functional programming features.

Ultium is GM’s 4th EV platform.

- EV1 was really a prototype.

- The Volt was a transition vehicle but it cost too much to build in volumes.

- They are selling 2 versions on the Bolt platform. The standard Bolt and the EUV.

- GM started selling small numbers of the Hummer on Ultium last last year.

- The Cadillac Lyriq began shipping to customers last month.

Next year, they have 3 models scheduled to launch: Silverado pickup, Blazer CUV, and the much less expensive Equinox. This battery plant is the first of 3 that they are building in the US.

Immediate mode GUI makes perfect sense for applications that repaint themselves all the time 60 (or more) times per second, as they're already doing the work and there's little overhead added by handling such GUI.

I agree with you, but just to point out that isn't what I wrote. It's not a speculation that it has "at least a basis to work from". Whether it actually does or not is speculative. The assertion in the article is that it has no basis to do it.

They've been different for very long and this has been causing compatibility issues for very long. A minor annoyance for sure but as a mac user I frequently run into that and indeed installing gnu core utils is usually the proper fix. It's not just that it is different but that the maintainers seem indifferent to all this. It's petty and pointlessly different at this point. Would it be so hard to implement the missing flags?

I don’t think that it is. I’m unfamiliar with Darkspore (spelling I found when searching conjoined it), but part of being an informed consumer is knowing what you are buying.

If you’re buying a game with a substantial single player game, LAN-based multiplayer, and online multiplayer, the part you don’t get to keep is the latter portion when the game ends. You’ve effectively bought a game and a ticket, and you should know you bought a ticket because business entities don’t have the obligation to keep existing or to continue owning their assets beyond whatever their contracts require (and there’s even ways to sell those out depending on the contract). But you still own the rest.

In the case of a MMORPG or live service game, all you own is a ticket. And even then it’s not as if you can’t be banned from accessing the servers effectively at-will but usually for cheating or harassment. You have to know the difference, because an online game is an experience in entertainment terms where as an offline game is a re-runnable piece of media. That’s not to discount the scummy things software shops can do, but check the original article; they’re shutting down the servers mostly for games 9+ years old, one that’s only a few years old but is online-only (never heard of it, must not have been too successful), and I have no idea what Ubisoft is doing with the access to DLC part in some of those titles. The article didn’t explain that part very well which is basically what I expect from game journalism, but is this DLC that is intrinsically part of the online experience? Is it offline DLC you can still keep, but not redownload? Is this a little bit of column A or a little bit of column B?

Point is, for some things that you “buy”: when the music stops, the band goes home and the stage gets taken down.

Doing a general query here (I won't call it a "poll" since the numbers don't matter):

Do you ever ask a bookstore staffer for recommendations?

I've always preferred to just browse for myself, and maybe read the first few pages. Either I feel like reading it, or I don't. I don't trust someone else to predict which way I'll go.

However, writers of articles like this invariably mention the "knowledgeable staff." I was in a Tucson bookstore near the University and I tried an experiment: I asked for a fiction recommendation. She asked me what books I liked, we talked for a long time, and she came up with "The Orphan Master's Son."

OK, it's a good book, I'm not going to trash it at all. But I just didn't feel like finishing it.

Maybe if I went there all the time and bought a lot of books and they actually got to know me, it would be different.

No, this is definitely high-quality. Like the person you're responding to, far higher quality than a lot of professional work I've seen. This is very clearly someone who cares about the end result, not just about getting it done, and a lot of work I've seen in my career, the person cares more about just getting it done, than they do about getting it done right.

I'd also say it's about having the skill to do this: as other posters note, there are multiple competencies on display in that post; graphics, coding, testing, etc. Each of those takes time to hone. I've worked with any number of people that are not honing their skills, because when they get stuck or hit problems, will not take the time to dig into them and really understand exactly what problem they hit, why they hit it, and how whatever language/tool/system they're working with works. They'll guess until something appears to work, and then move on.

I'd put the detail in this blog post up there with Friday Factorio Facts, and that is also another top-notch game.

If your professional environment is just full of people working at or even above the level here, you should know you have it good. And I think they do exist: I've definitely joined places where there are just lots of incredible people; in hindsight I wish I'd done a better job of learning and listening, when I had that…
Yes, the checksum is useless, because the checksummed file is corrupt. By contrast, without checksumming... the file would still be corrupt!

In the best case, when good data was written to disk, checksumming preserves the good data. In the worst case, when bad data was written to disk, checksumming does no harm.

Checksumming is good.

It is interesting to use a library as a model, but I would be amazed that you could get any particular company to understand and implement it. I could see teams having dedicated coworking areas that are extended from a large central open area. But, I could also predict that people would just carry their discussions into the open area, and constantly walk up and disturb the peace by asking "quick questions" anyway. Anyone asking others to "please be respectful" would probably get laughed at and ignored.

On the other hand, a coworking space might be able to pull off such a model, with a large open area, and then dedicated areas for team collaboration. You don't play by the rules: see you later.

I do think working physically next to others could be quite pleasant. But, given that in almost 23 years of work, I've never experienced this, I'll take remote work instead, since it at least gives me control over the mayhem. And maybe I'll ask if there's budget for some coworking space time. But given the current economy, I'm not holding my breath...

Exactly, there are a lot of BSD variants out there. You might consider them BSD distributions even. And they are as different from each other as Linux distributions are from each other. They all share the same messy ancestry of different companies cloning Unix in the nineteen seventies and eighties and doing loosely the same things with loosely the same naming conventions and tool names.
Purchase price yes, development costs less so. Maybe I'm just bad at verilog but it takes me a lot longer to do the same thing compared to cuda or c++. Also the devtools are a big pain, and nothing is performance portable across device brands. Or even device classes. But yes, for high rate simple-ish dsp, fpga is awesome for performance and performance per watt.

Yeah. I recommend it because it goes way beyond the stuff another commenter complained about in this thread:

> A dozen articles about the language, with listings. The screenshots? All the same, showing recursive pictures of rectangles and circles. Great. LOGO can do that. But what else? Big empty void there.

E.g. the last chapter is an intro to general relativity, with a simulator for motion in curved spacetime.

(CS Logo Style also covers many topics, but it looked like they were all familiar to me as an experienced programmer. I haven't seen another book for programmers about most of the math in Turtle Geometry.)

You can cache the objects in the query by ID. And then reuse them across a number of queries.

> It's not like in REST where the request tells you exactly and precisely what resource the client wants to access.

It can be. You can have a query that does `getObject(id: $id): Object`.

> Adds overhead on the server side.

Yep it pulls a heap of complexity around data fetching, synchronisation, and data modelling from the client to the server.

As it requires both the client and server to come to some agreement about a shared data model, it can appear as more work up front. But it enables a decoupling of the client and server such that the client can make requests for new use cases with the existing shared data model.
