Long time ago I read/skimmed the specification, but I think the DOCTYPE preamble is the only _required_ element in a HTML5 document. The specification allows you to omit <head/> if it's empty, and if that's allowed, then it should be allowed to not having any <title/> elements as well.

Edit with details from https://www.w3.org/TR/2014/REC-html5-20141028/document-metad...

> Note: The title element is a required child in most situations, but when a higher-level protocol provides title information, e.g. in the Subject line of an e-mail when HTML is used as an e-mail authoring format, the title element can be omitted.

From https://www.w3.org/TR/2014/REC-html5-20141028/document-metad...

> If it's reasonable for the Document to have no title, then the title element is probably not required. See the head element's content model for a description of when the element is required.

So strictly speaking, if it's meant to be used as a traditional web page, you should really have it (obviously), but it's not strictly required.
The energy source is actually very important, because it dictates how much energy you have to invest to gain extra energy. Using draft animals has a very low rate of return. During my grandparents' time, the draft animals used to produce the food consumed about a third of the total farm produce--and this is likely to be a more efficient farm than any that existed a thousand or two thousand years ago.

Fundamentally, this means you have wildly different costs for energy. Modern electrical energy costs around ten cents per kilowatt-hour. Gasoline fuel costs in the US right now turn out to around eleven cents per kilowatt-hour basis (although obviously an internal combustion engine isn't the same efficiency as a electric engine). By way of comparison, a single workhorse for an entire working day will put out maybe 6 kWh of energy, and the food input requirements for that workhorse are going to cost far more than 60 cents.
The article mentions using chatty for SMSes which also happens to be an XMPP client, then a few workarounds to get discord and signal on their phone. It's shameless plug time for me, as I'm developing XMPP gateways for both these chat networks as part of my slidge[1] project. The only other user besides me was precisely interested in getting signal support on their pinephone.

I think it's an interesting idea although one likely pretty much doomed to fail in the current highly ambitious form. There certainly seems to be room for innovation in the space with co's like Culdesac developing new niche communities, but building a net new city of this size in the U.S. seems insanely hard to pull off. If you're considering a move somewhere, why would you choose this city over all alternatives? If you're an American, you're blessed with a ton of optionality not just domestically from LA, SF, Miami, Tulsa, and a thousand other cities but also a much easier process to move abroad to many more places. However, I am bullish on new cities like Talent City in Nigeria or Nkwashi in Zambia where both trends on population growth and urbanization are in the right direction for net new development and competition is less difficult (in the U.S. having a city with stable power and clean water is not as much of a value prop as it is in Africa).

Also, nitpicky but I'm pretty sure that the governing principle is much more similar to Georgism rather than, "... a mashup of democracy, capitalism and socialism." as the article states.

I'm thinking more in terms of what you put into that interface.
Do you add features that you might need later?
My approach would be no.
You design your first interface with only what you need right now.
And if you don't need an interface to do that, you bring in the interface later.

I used c++, golang, python, javascript over the years, even tried Rust briefly. Turns out I'm most productive in C, I can get stuff done the fastest way in C and one month later I can still understand the code.

Posix C with all its libraries can do so many wonders, many of the traps and pitfalls are well known, fuzzing test can further secure the code, and, it's just that unbeatable-ly fast.

Adding a little practical OOD into C if your code base is large, even with dtor|ctor|RAIIs(a bit tricky, but manageable). I call this my C+ style.
I'm encouraged reading this. Thank you.

I doubt a modern engine has ever failed due to a single instance of lugging. they are pretty robust. but it does put unnecessary stress on the engine. it's similar to cruising on the highway in a low gear. the engine is designed not to fail at 5000 rom, but that doesn't mean it will last as long as if you just drive normally. why risk an early engine failure just to save a few dollars at the pump here and there?

and the point does apply to diesels, the same as it does to any engine with pistons and a crankshaft. it's just that the operating range of a diesel is a bit lower.
The False Trade-Off Between Quality and Speed
Many similar problems exist in most fields of academia. Biology has an even worse academic environment IMO, but unless you are highly computational it's not as easy to sell out to industry. Yeah there's pharma, but the straight out of PhD salaries aren't that exciting and the work environment is generally not as good as tech.

Not disagreeing with you at all on the CS front though obviously. I am interested to see how things go in the next few decades in the respective fields, as the ease of exit does affect who stays as you mention. But it also affects who joins in the first place, the pressure felt to get results, and hopefully down the road systemic incentive to fix the problems.

CS also has the perk of being easier to rejoin - you don't need to make a huge initial investment in most researchers to give them a chance. So I'm optimistic for reform in CS academia down the road. But it's a long road, and if academic politics continue to prevail then I'm deeply concerned about the state of all of our research institutions.

Seriously, I was recently at reunions for a "top" university where many people go into graduate programs, and it became a running joke trying to find an alum from any PhD program that wasn't jaded as fuck. Even some of the people that I was most confident would be killing it weren't (or at least felt they weren't). The majority were actively exploring industry opportunities and considered themselves unlikely to do an academic postdoc.
What a load of BS. Of the top of my mind:

-Germany pratically "invented" 100% of the chemistry we use today. Pharmaceuticals, industrial chemistry, you name it.

-The fertilizer revolution that made it possible for today's 8 billion humans to exist.

- Rocket science, and jet propulsion technology, that made the world the small thing it is today.

- The internal combustion engine, that made it possible to cheaply deliver the food the fertilizers made cheap...

Germany is rich because it's people are industrious and smart. What the hell, why does entitled 1st world millenials have become soviet lunatics?

Finally- between autonomous restaurant, stable diffusion, JWT, and more, wow! 2022 seems like a pivotal year across many dimensions.

Especially compared the ocean of empty promises and dreams of the first tech boom and subsequent bust implosion that culminated in 2000.

Today is one of the first times in awhile that I genuinely feel optimistic about the short-to-medium term future of humanity. Maybe we can make some cool and useful stuff, instead of price gouging each other into a pit of dispair? I'll do what I can.
You basically reserve time for them. If they don't pay the retainer, they won't have any guarantee that you'll have time for them when they need you.

> When should I have a monthly retainer?

It provides you with a certain amount of income safety, allows you to schedule your time better ahead of time and also prevents you from trying to make time for too many clients at once. (Imagine if multiple clients suddenly have an emergency and ask for your help.)

That's it. I can pick up K&R and still be writing useful programs in a very short time.

Of course, in a lot of shops there are libraries that you have to use other than the standard one. I can imagine a conference about those. A boring conference.

A strategy like "manage endpoints" would not be satisfied if people are actively able to avoid it, no? Wouldn't that mean the board's strategy is being ignored and evidence of it concealed by the CEO?
I know what Wine does, for sure. Linuxemu and BSDemu did that, the same as Linux_compat on free/netbsd or Wine, but with vmx the former emulation it's obsolete.

Old and outdated. You might be able to run some statically linked browser from elsewhere.

Linuxemu works with i386 ELF binaries, so maybe an Alpine i386 chroot could work.

With that same reason, they should ban their customers from running any sort of stress-tests as well, as that'll consume more power than just assuming your web server can handle the load.
This is very convenient, but it seems to ignore (ergo lose) the value of the rest of the time off.

How do you account for the extra days, in my example it would be almost 300 hours' worth of value I get in addition to the salary?

To be clear: water poisoning is very, VERY hard compared to mustard, licorice, or caffeine poisoning, because it takes a long time to ingest, and you get plenty of signals from your body that you should stop drinking this much water well before you reach the point where you've severely disrupted homeostasis. Unlike those other three, which you can ingest over a very short period in copious concentrated quantities.
seeems like the site's down
I'm SO enjoying all the comments about "yes, there are saw and hammer conferences." I'll have to ask my HVAC technician neighbor if he's ever been to one.
True, but I feel like the strength of the moderation at HN is that it is mostly formal and less editorial. People are moderated mostly for how they say things, not what they're saying, especially by explicitly choosing as the primary criteria for the site what hackers find interesting.

Not that you couldn't have a narrower focus, but it should be an explicit focus where the question of whether something merits moderation is a yes or no question that could be answered by anyone, rather than a know it when I see it stance that just reflects the current personal standards of an individual or clique.

Does this belong on Hacker News? Was it upvoted and not flagged too often by people with sufficient karma on Hacker News? Then dang doesn't have to make a decision. This is not a perfect characterization, because moderation here does rarely drop into attempts to exclude types of discussions that the patrons find annoying (which is rationalized because the subjects are controversial and draw in people who want to fight, and repetitive because these people fight all the time so have habits and standard arguments.)

I'm really just expanding on the word "empowered" here, because most mods have absolute power unless they have to answer to other mods. The difference here is not power, it's philosophy.

They were technically horizontally integrated too, since the entire reason they were able to exist is situations where jobs like mining were created in isolated areas with no other places to live.

Workers had no other options but to live in that company town and spend their money in company town stores.

All vertical integration means is that a company has direct control over most/all of the supply chain they need to get their product made and sold. They don't need 3rd parties to supply them with any of the steps in the process.

That obviously gives them a competitive advantage, but it doesn't involve directly removing other competitors the way horizontal integration does.

But again, steam power was irrelevant to the economy in the early part of the first industrial Revolution (1760-1800). The first industrial revolution relied at first almost exclusively on water power. Mills and bellows and such were designed to run on water power. Power loom was designed at first for water power. And a lot of the early steam-powered equipment was actually water-powered, with the steam engine serving to pump water to run the machines.

Coal wasn’t essential for the first industrial Revolution, except maybe to keep Britain from freezing to death in the winter.

The coal-essentialism argument is partially an anachronism as water powered machinery was supplanted by steam (and later electricity) in the Second Industrial Revolution.

It's things like this that we need more of - and eschewing networking is a great way to work out what you can actually do with a computer. I feel everything just kind of develops until it has a TCP stack and then becomes another "basically just a blob on the internet".

That's not even to get into the various things we just assume about networking that are actually just accidents of TCP, IP, or more and more HTTP.

Another thing we haven't really dug deep into is the "everything is a file" paradigm which basically has been interpreted as "everything is a text file" - the hatred for binary data runs deep, but binary data is most likely the best for computers. XML, HTML, etc are perhaps NOT the best representation for various complex forms of data that we want to use.
Slavery is bad, but it's not no-cost. At the very least you have to feed the enslaved and also give them the bare minimum of care, if only to protect your investment. And then there are the societal costs of enforcement.

I would submit that any Roman farmer or businessman relying on slave labor would be overjoyed to purchase any device that would cut the need for slaves in half. (Or even by 10-20%.)
I think what you are asking is to lower the existing legal thresholds. Today if a vehicle's GVWR/GCWR or axle count exceeds a specific number varies by state then a different endorsement is required on the drivers license.

That would be a good argument for the second half of the first industrial revolution, but in the 1700s (the industrial Revolution starting around 1760 or so), steam power was a footnote.

In terms of networking: I get all my clients from recruiters reaching out to me LinkedIn. I've "SEO"d my profile to make sure all keywords (and every variation) for the tech I specialise is in my profile.

In terms of making money without being in a supervisory role: Become really good at operating / devopsing niche enterprise software. Try and specialise in software where:

* There aren't many users (and therefore few competing specialists)

* The users are large, rich enterprises

* It's "legacy" and therefore the pool of competing specialists is shrinking (but importantly the pool of customers is shrinking at a slower rate than the pool of specialists)

* It's complicated

* The software provides enough value to its users such that paying an incredibly expensive contractor to look after it is much cheaper than not using the software and having to pay the salaries of the dozens/hundreds of jobs the software automates away.
> 3. While the size of any one conference has to be fixed, tech has made it infinitely easier to create new conferences and journals with other focus areas. They may not start with the prestige of a larger journal, but if the papers published start to have an impact, it can catalyze an entire subfield of work.

Does it though? The largest conferences I go to as a CS academic have hundreds of people. There are academic areas where 10x people participate. The size limitation is a self-imposed excuse to keep acceptance low. I have been PC chair of two conferences and my attempts to expand the conference numbers were shot down by the steering committee precisely for this reason, not because we couldn't find a larger room.
Even as someone who's not a fan of cryptocurrency, I think this is dumb. If you're paying for a dedicated server, you should be allowed to do anything you want on it as long as it's legal.
