It’s an off shoot of police containment tactics. Generally, when homeless and vagrants congregate in specific neighborhoods, the cops round them up and move them to another neighborhood or part of town where they are essentially out of sight. This is urban studies 101, and The Wire’s ‘Hamsterdam’ is depiction of the tactic.

That’s roughly the plan here. Move them out of sight (site? No pun intended).

As for actually how to solve the mess? Eh, just tuck the dirty laundry under the bed. Clean room in seconds. The society needs a refactor in certain parts of the codebase, but few have the courage to take on a legacy codebase.

That's not the logo it's just a name of the product. Logo is Electronic Materials Office® which i think is rather nice. The fact you can recreate a logo in 12 seconds after you saw it doesn't lower it's qualities - That's the case for majority of logos.
The aesthetics of the product clearly references 70s & 80s electronic product design so i yeah it's on purpose.
I am not sure what you mean by it not being kerned. It clearly is kerned both in the type tester and on the product - it's function of the typeface and it does it pretty well.
Homeless epidemics are really just drug addiction epidemics, a problem that we have historically been unable to solve at scale, and one of the things that irks me about people who oppose these sort of relocation programs is that they don’t put forward any realistic alternative solutions to the real problem. This isn’t an inequality or poverty issue, it’s a drug issue.

Failed cities like San Francisco are being completely overrun by drug addicts living in the streets, and the truth is, it is too late to do anything about it. Shipping off homeless people to other cities is the only way to clean the streets now. There is no budget big enough and no patience strong enough anymore that can solve this problem. A generation of homeless people simply has to pass away and not be replaced. This process will take decades, and will rob many people the pleasure of enjoying a city in their prime years.

I do not blame the good city of Miami for wanting to just ship off the homeless to a remote island where they can be out of sight and out of mind. The city depends heavily on tourism and has an image of copious wealth to uphold.

Most Mac users are also iPhone users. Most iPhone users are not Mac users. To increase Mac users you need a consistent UI experience not alien concepts for iPhone only users. Unifying the interface is evolutionary towards iPhone equivalence is the outcome.

After all, the App Store makes money from iPhone and iPad apps not Mac so Mac needs to evolve in the slipstream of iOS investment.
I think X was kind of like this, yeah - in the eighties and early nineties; it's got its own chapter in the Unix Haters Handbook. There's been an incredible amount of work done to fix/work around its problems, and some of them - like security - turned up to be not practically fixable at all. Rewriting it into a properly minimalist design 20 years ago, like Apple did, instead of just now, would save everyone a lot of time.

And this time it's orders of magnitude worse.

If you have to preemptively defend something as “not a concentration camp” and feel the need to couch it with “in my opinion”, it should probably give you pause.

How does the “I don’t like it, therefore it’s crap” differ from “I like it, therefore it’s amazing”. They are both opinions. You may think that the critical opinion is “rude”, but conversely, I may think the glowing opinion is ignorant or quaint. Critics have been panning art for millennia or has all criticism been fully cancelled now? This guy was surely obsessed and crazy, which I wholeheartedly respect. But it’s simply not that impressive for 50 years of work. Personally, I don’t think it’s crap or amazing, I just think it’s disappointing and I feel bad this guy wasted his time. Consider what Egyptians built in the desert at least 5 thousand of years earlier with much less tools. Now that is an art installation. Granted, they had an army of builders, but still, the access to better tools and concrete should still allow 1 guy to do something more epic than what he did here. Further, the much more recent coral castle I find to be more impressive and that was also 1 guy and it only took him 30 years.

Well, the point of peak oil was never that oil will run out, just that it will get more expensive to extract it until the point where you have to spend more energy to extract it that what you get back.

This may not be happening, but I see some suspicious signs:

- Energy expenditure per capita in the US peaked in the 70s and hasn't gone up in 50 years.

- Fracking companies have never made a profit.

- Arabia Saudi has been pushed to extract more barrels since the war started, they haven't, in theory it's for political reasons but some experts mention that they may be unable to increase production any further.

> "Why would you chat online when you can in real life!?"

Never met anyone I worked with well who thought that, even in the 80s (I ran a BBS (on a MSX2 by the way, written in Pascal) to communicate with my teammates and my business partner; he was sales and he loved it). I preferably only ever work with engineers so that might explain something. The real great thing about this day and age is that now you can just demand it from anyone; I have noticed that other roles in the company also prefer it vs 'real life' because there is a record of everything. So 'minutes of meeting' is copy/paste/export instead of writing from your very bad and biased memory; the latter is basically built in for many (especially corporate in my experience) people who insist on calls and face to face; it's easier to fudge the details and deflect blame for failure ('but I told you this when we had this little meeting a couple of weeks ago remember?'). And that happens basically all the time; it's nice that you can just search an archive and say ; 'you said x, we did x, x didn't work, own it please, now back to work'. Only in case of deflection or blaming of course; everyone does stuff, no-one needs to be called out but if someone calls someone out while being wrong, it's good to get the facts.

Hey Eric, I wonder if that really you. Just wanted to say hi, read your book many years ago and found the Plasma Universe theory very fascinating and frankly less bleak than the Big Bang with its philosophical implications about irreversible decay and such (you make that point in the book itself.)

Also, I have the feeling Gravitational Cosmology has reached a point where most effort goes into “refining the constants” - was it Hilbert that said that was all that was left to do, right before Quantum Mechanics was introduced? - so a little bombshell discovery would make things very exiting and fresh.

I don't know if he's right or not, but he's talking about specific, concrete studies -- real data.

The page you link to say says:

> A deficiency of essential fatty acids—either omega-3s or omega-6s—can cause rough, scaly skin and dermatitis [5].

Then when we go look at [5] we get:

> Institute of Medicine, Food and Nutrition Board. Dietary reference intakes for energy, carbohydrate, fiber, fat, fatty acids, cholesterol, protein, and amino acids (macronutrients). Washington, DC: National Academy Press; 2005.

That's not actual data.

Presumably the reference intakes are based on some sort of data (would take some digging to find out, since it's incoveniently not hyperlinked) -- I might speculate it's based on exactly the 1929 Burr study that Peat is arguing was mistaken.

Hard to know though, without some digging.

Do you think PUFA is essential because it's what the NIH tells you, or because of specific experiments that have been done which demonstrate it?
But there were already other comparable solutions that existed and had adoption at the time -- eg. HipChat. I get why something like Slack or HipChat beat IRC, but what did Slack do differently than the existing offerings that enabled it to beat them all out so easily?

What people arguing against accretion of regulations tend to miss is that this accretion (as currently experienced in the US at least) goes hand-in-hand with accumulation of capital and consolidation of industries. The large corporations can afford to comply with complex regulations. For them, maintaining complex regulatory regimes (through legalized bribery and regulatory capture) is part of the defensive fortifications that maintain their monopoly/oligopoly positions. As an optimist, I believe we can reform the system (e.g., through antitrust enforcement, which the FTC under Ms. Khan is doing more of than in recent decades), rather than burn it down.
When you use "has()" you can be pretty sure that you also have the context to just use a class name. Using CSS to traverse a tree of elements rather than structure the elements in a way to make your CSS makes sense just feels like backwards design to me. Your CSS should describe how the HTML looks, it shouldn't be trying to figure out what you did to the poor DOM tree to find the right style to apply.
Seems like it would fit right into a Bojack Horseman episode.

As someone born in the 21st century, I've always found this to be a weird distinction. Why can't we unify them in just one concept?
Careful here. Drug epidemics and homeless epidemics often overlap, maybe in the most chronically homeless, but there are plenty of homeless who aren’t amped up on drugs who you aren’t noticing (because they aren’t amped up on drugs). So because drug problems are so visible in the homeless we can see, we can conflate the two issues.

> Failed cities like San Francisco are being completely overrun by drug addicts living in the streets, and the truth is, it is too late to do anything about it.

If you really believe that, you should find some way to short San Francisco real estate investment. You’ll get burned badly, since you don’t have very good information, but it will be a good lesson.

Homeless people have been moving into good weather west coast cities since the late 1800s, the scale going up and down over time, but the cities keep booming and busting along.
I remember in the late 90s building content boxes with 3x3 tables, outer cells containing image slices for the border, drop shadow and rounded corners. Macromedia Fireworks had brilliant tools for both creating these sort of graphics, but also slicing them up for use in tables. I still miss Fireworks, Adobe killed it though as they perceived that it competed with Photoshop when it really didn’t. It’s the spiritual precursor to all ui/ux design tools like Figma and Sketch.
"a drug issue" is a healthcare issue.

The US has historically and still largely does treat addicts as criminals.

Socialize healthcare and treat drug addiction as a medical problem. A good chunk of those addicts are refugees of the opioid crisis caused by profit-seeking pharmaceuticals in the first place! There should be no shortage of tax dollars to allocate for these problems if there's just the will to fix it.

Safari supports lazy image loading, which is probably what you want. Just not iFrame lazyloading, which you shouldn’t be using all that much anyway.

It also supports webp, even though I never use it. It’s a Google thing, not widely supported by image editors and which fails to be consistently better than a properly optimized jpeg.

If you thing you need webp try running it through MozJPEG first

I agree beyond imports (it can be convenient to allow e.g. from django.db.models import CharField instead of from django.db.models.fields or whatever it is, for example) - that's why I called it laziness, a fudge done to just get it working quickly, lazily not doing it properly.

Thank you for putting this to words. It is not art unless it is open for criticism. That’s kind of the whole point. An artist is vulnerable->releases new work into the world->it passes through the filter of criticism->work is determine to be beautiful art or crap. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but at scale, beauty is in the eyes of the masses.

I was in Germany earlier this month, and made good use of the ticket going around quite a bit of Germany.

> The methods were entirely disconnected.

This is standard an unavoidable. There are like a dozen of tricks that solve a few special cases, and they were found after heroic brute force search in the void. (The real fact that is somewhat hidden is that most differential equations can't be solved analytically. You solve analytically only the few cases that are solvable analytically, otherwise you just get a numerical solution or an approximation.)

> In this way there was not a lot to discuss, and from time to time the professor would gently steer us back to merely copying and memorizing the methods, even though no one had questioned him out loud.

That's a horrible way to teach.
How protected is this island from sea level rise? Some of the worst case scenarios suggest that all of Florida except the most northern parts could be underwater by the end of the century. I doubt any one island, much less one that homeless are all but forced to live on, would be protected vigorously.

The biggest issue I had with female colleagues is not that they were worse than males in any way, but comment like yours. In fact I think on average females are better for the team. I remember I told once told few folks that one female member of the team is bad hire, and the immediate response I got was that I am saying this because she is a female. I might have a bias that I don't know about, but if someone specifically points a single or minority of females to be bad doesn't need to prove they are not sexist.

That's a great correction. I was absolutely not taking into account the population sizes at each part of human history.

Are your numbers assuming that everyone in the world knew about each "invention", for example writing, at the same time?

If writing existed in a society at a particular time, I'm not sure how to estimate if or how well an average person (likely without much education unless part of a privileged class) would know about it.

I think the point I'm trying to make is that a random human experience today is very abnormal compared to the average human experience at any time previously in history. So I guess the more accurate way to demonstrate that would be to choose 100 random years from the last 300 millennia, and then grab a random person from each of those years.
I always wonder what will anyone think in a 1000 years if they dig it out of the desert. Will there will be wild speculations on the religious significance of the structures and how the proportions line up to x natural or universal constants. Did aliens build it? :)
Soviet Russia STARTED WWII together with Germany. They agreed it with Germans.

Soviets attacked Poland on 17th September 1939. Their army and tanks crossed Polish border.

Then they shook hands with Germans and proceeded to annex Poland.

I think the article shows brilliant examples of where that isn’t really possible, and uses where it replaces JavaScript. It also stops you needing to repeat yourself, the figure example for example with your suggestion would need both a class and a caption tag.

Also going back to the roots of CSS, :has() is ideal for semantic markup where you don’t want or need to use excessive class names. Obviously with class heavy frameworks and methodologies that are in vogue :has() is less relevant.

There is more than one way to use CSS.

> Your CSS should describe how the HTML looks

That’s literally what :has() does, based on the structure of the document.

Good question. Quick research says looks like you can’t. So yes it is a necessary tax for owning a property. In the UK a tenant would pay it which makes it more like a tax on the person.

Not defending the idea itself but I just don’t see how climate change is relevant here. If the rest of Florida is also underwater, what does it matter how protected the island is? They would be in the “same boat” as other Floridians and they would be in the same position if they were homeless in Miami.
