Sorry I can't judge those, the thing is all the ones I used so far, including boostrap are really basic. You would need a library for a trully complete DataGrid, one for a real dropdown, one for a real listbox, one for a modal manager, one for menus etc.

This widgets appear to be simple but can have more advanced usage, like a dropdown where you can navigate with the keyboard arrows or PgUp/PgDown, you could type a character and the dropdown would instantly jump to the that item , you can specify if the dropdown popup up or down, have many items are visible at once, you can have items with different fonts styles , disabled items.

This classic frameworks are good for doing business apps or apps for working and not for simple apps that need to look cool to sell.

The Youtube Search box has a dropdown thing, sometimes that thing gets stuck open and you have to reload the page, so a giant like google with their expensive developers are not able to do a average complexity widget. But I seen worse, fancy input widgets where you could not use the Delete button (the Skype money amount input)
I've also been self-hosting email for years, and the only deliverability problem I've ever had has been with AT&T. If I try to send something to an AT&T customer, I get an automated "your message has been eaten" notice, and following its directions accomplishes precisely nothing. At this point, I can only guess they're hellbanning the IP block in which my VPS resides, because it does not show up on any public DNSBLs.

Google? No problem. Comcast? No problem. Charter? No problem. AT&T? Problem.

"But if all the savings from water rationing amounted to 20% of our residential water use, then that equals about 0.5 MAF, which is about 10% of the water used to irrigate alfalfa. The California alfalfa industry makes a total of $860 million worth of alfalfa hay per year. So if you calculate it out, a California resident who wants to spend her fair share of money to solve the water crisis without worrying about cutting back could do it by paying the alfalfa industry $2 to not grow $2 worth of alfalfa, thus saving as much water as if she very carefully rationed her own use."

In my experience since I'm a newbie even though I get get annoyed at inconsistencies and typos. People at work just ignore/say he's learning so he focuses on typos more rather than logic.

You're arguing mostly about cases where something was added two decades ago. The bar for new features should go up as time goes on. But importantly "it was a mistake to add for-else" is an argument to not add a similarly not useful and confusing feature.

Assignment expressions passed basically because there are around 2 common places where they clean up code. But unlike labeled break, those cases are relatively common. I dislike the walrus operator and don't think it was worth adding to the language, but I've still run into cases where it's been valuable. That's never been true for labelled break.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy isn't just a humorous sci-fi novel, it's a roadmap to the future and has been my go-to book for 30+ years. The entire series is a gold mine of predictions, analysis, and commentary about every facet of society from tech to religion, quantum physics to philosophy, genetics, mathematics, politics, space travel, and the very nature of reality and our place in it. It uses a core plot device where the more improbable something is, the more likely it is to happen, as a writer's ultimate Deus ex machina which springboards the reader into a thousand different ideas. I've been reading it and listening to Adam's personal narration of it for years and I still discover gems of insight I had missed.

Sadly, like all authors who write about the future, as what they describe becomes reality, later readers start to dismiss their work - think Jules Verne as an example. So now the idea of a portable handheld device containing all the information you can imagine connected via invisible communications system doesn't seem as amazing as it did in the 80s and 90s.

But now that we're entering the age of Artificial Intelligence, Adams insights are yet again showing his astounding prescience. Every time Alexa responds to me with some overlong response spoken in some pseudo-hip manner, I can't help but think of Adam's Sirius Cybernetics Corporation's Genuine People Personality™.

Just in the last several weeks alone, as the various AI image and text services have gained popularity and people started exchanging elaborate prompts which produce the best results, I've been amazed at how much they resemble Arthur trying to describe to the Nutri-Matic Drinks Dispenser exactly how to make a cup of tea.

> “No,” Arthur said, “look, it’s very, very simple…. All I want… is a cup of tea. You are going to make one for me. Now keep quiet and listen.”

> And he sat. He told the Nutri-Matic about India, he told it about China, he told it about Ceylon. He told it about broad leaves drying in the sun. He told it about silver teapots. He told it about summer afternoons on the lawn. He told it about putting the milk in before the tea so it wouldn’t get scalded. He even told it (briefly) about the East India Trading Company.

> “So that’s it, is it?” said the Nutri-Matic when he had finished.

> “Yes,” said Arthur. “That is what I want.”

> “You want the taste of dried leaves boiled in water?”

> “Er, yes. With milk.”

Think of the detailed prompts given to GPT-3, DALL-E or Stable Diffusion to help guide it to create the right output. If you're not amazed at a book written in the late 1970s predicting with such clarity our interaction with artificial intelligence decades later, then I can't convince you. Adams was truly a prophet.

Also, of course, his humor and mastery of English turns of phrase makes it all the more better.
I do agree that the story around UB in C and C++ sucks. But UB doesn't exist because the compiler engineers want to be able to stick in optimizations. Once they are in the spec it makes sense to follow the rules but most UB comes from a desire for portability and to not privilege one platform over another.

And further, defining a lot of UB won't actually improve things. Imagine we define signed integer overflowing behavior. Hooray. Now your program just has a different bug. If you've accidentally got signed integer overflow in your application then "did some weird things because the compiler assumed it would never overflow" is going to cause exactly the same amount of havoc as "integer overflowed and now your algorithm is almost certainly wrong."
Not an Apple guy, but I think an Apple M chip will run at ⅓ the speed of a top end RTX GPU, however it uses system memory, so it can easily be 32GB or 64Gb. That's pretty compelling, and if this is really a new class of application, NVidia is going to have to think about more memory for mainstream-ish products.

Hate to be that guy, but two of the 3 above are easily handled by simply not starting at all. People who don't start do not get the urge to go to these when under stress.

Addressing stress is a lot more difficult than simply not starting. In the US, the rate of tobacco use continues to drop, and it is an outcome of a fairly significant campaign. Put all those resources into reducing stress and you simply won't move the needle.

I doubt a post-apocalyptic society will look kindly upon aristocrats of the before time. I suspect it’s in at least some of their strategies to just blend in and not let their previous status be known. It’s a huge privilege in the current world to be an unrecognizable billionaire. The people on the Forbes lists are the narcissistic ones. There are plenty of people out there who don’t talk about their wealth and power, don’t dress or really live ostentatiously, etc. Some people would ask what the point of wealth and power is in that situation, and those are probably the same people who would be featured in Forbes articles if asked.
1) Ask yourself, if Russia makes Kherson "Russia" now and Ukraine takes it back then how does it look like? There is your answer - they will going to do any "referendums" there.

3) That dictator may want to go to the Moon but to do that you have to actually be capable to do it.

"Implementation defined" is worse in a lot of ways. Now the compiler has way less authority to tell you to stop! And we still have the problem of the application probably not doing what you want.
I don't think an entire forum should be judged by the actions of one user (after which the post and user were banned within minutes). The platform has been around for a long time, and I'm honestly surprised the actions of one user are somehow representative of all users.
This is an interesting perspective. I was just thinking about the SA community's relationship with lowtax -- did they know what he was like for longer than the public?

Where I disagree with you there is about the utility of directness vs concreteness.

"Does this team or any of the related teams have a person who actively rejects proposals to improve the code base?"

This leaves an unscrupulous interviewer a too-obvious answer: "no." They aren't going to want to admit someone "actively reject improvements" and lying in interviews is not uncommon.

Asking for a specific story raises the skill bar for an effective lie. If someone is smooth enough to come up with a convincing, compelling story on the fly you sadly will struggle to catch them out with any questions.

Fall back to a more open-ended discussion if they don't. This is less good, but a longer discussion, similarly, should make it easier to spot a liar than in a single-word "no." Every word the interviewer says is opportunity to gain more insight on what it would be like to work with them.

Even that fallback is information you gain, though. "Can you tell me about a time someone on the team proposed a code improvement change that was controversial?" If the answer is "I can't think of anything immediately, but I'd probably do something like...[whatever]" then that's curious - it could suggest a few things. Maybe the systems are so simple that nobody thinks its worth bothering with changing. That could be bad for a candidate looking for a challenge. Maybe nobody on the team is empowered to make suggestions and all design is coming top-down from the boss. That would also be bad. (And the original yes/no question misses this case too: nobody on the team might do that, because only the boss is making the calls, and nobody else has made those suggestions, but gives you less answer to follow up on.)

You can try to dig in more with additional questions, depending on which of those (or other) impressions you get from their answers.

Reminds me of this great lecture on the origin of death in evolution:

https://www.elijahwald.com/origin.html
I support the author but let me tell you a counterargument I don’t think he devotes enough to:

Spam is a real issue.

The amount of spam emails which get sent are absurd and likely orders of magnitude more than non-spam. And spammers do a lot to mimic real emails, including just hacking legitimate addresses and adding them to botnets.

Even on gmail, I still get spam sent to my inbox. Fortunately very rarely, but it still happens.

And even if it isn’t bad today, spam has the potential to be much worse in the future with transformer networks and hostile state actors.

And even if it really isn’t that bad and never will be, the big companies and those arguing against self-hosting will claim it is. They don’t want to allow a relative few self-hosted email servers in exchange for much more difficult and less effective spam detection. Forget Gmail and Outlook, why not just use Fastmail or Protonmail?

If you want a legitimate argument for self-hosted emails you need to address the spam. It may be as simple as registering your official email with some organization sponsored by open-source, and all the big companies can trust that one organization. Then the org has to deal with spam registrations but maybe there won’t be much and it will work out. idk much about self-hosting so this org might already exist.

But this article doesn’t mention that org, in fact doesn’t say much at all about spam besides “keep existing spam-prevention because it already works”. But you should at least explain why. Because spam is a legitimate argument for big-co forming an oligarchy that’s not just “so they can make more money”, and it’s the main argument that big-co uses.

> I've found that I always pushed myself way too hard while running. The goal is not to be fast or have the best time.

This was a key point for me. Like many, I started with Couch to 5K. During my run intervals, I ran too fast. Had to make up for that 2 minutes of walking.

Eventually, after much reading and trial and error, I finally figured out how to run and how to program running. My standard is to keep my 1 mile time right at 7 minutes. I test it once a month. If it is creeping up, I’ll add in more running/cardio. Otherwise, I keep everything the same.

It took a lot of months of “slow” 11 and 12 minute miles to build up my body to be ready to start doing the tempo runs and speed work. I think too many new runners start right off with tempo and speed work because they “gotta feel the burn”, and they get embarrassed being passed. There were times I was going to quit running because I’m maintaining a 12 minute pace and people walking their dogs were passing me.

I don’t remember where I heard this (or read it), but depending on when you start your fitness journey, remember you spent YEARS getting yourself to where you were. You’re not going to turn it all around in months much less days.

+1 for frugality. I also own my home with a small mortgage, so I don't worry about rents increasing. I just got a job again after taking a break over a year ago... But I could have floated for years. I spent a lot of my career as a contractor, so I did a lot of cheap living and a lot of saving for a rainy day. After a while, it became habit.

I drive a 22-year-old car that gets 37 MPG. I ride my bicycle whenever I can. My home is 1100 sqft on a 5000-ft lot.

I can see prices that have gone up, but that hasn't impacted my buying habits. (One exception is international air travel... Scott's Cheap Flights helps there if you're flexible, but prices to where we want to go are still up 200%.)

> Do you never consume APIs you have no control over? And is every sequence you use an indexable list?

I already explained this. You're returning an index. There's no reason to do that unless.you can use the index. Somewhere, the api allowed you to use the index, so in this case, you've got control over the relevant parts of the api that don't!

> And is every sequence you use an indexable list?

Yes, or it's small enough that I can store or transform it into one, or it's big enough that I need to use specialized tooling that doesn't play well with break or continue.

> It was incredibly straightforward and readable code

I agree, there's nothing wrong with the code as written. It's fine. The obtuseness was the example. I'll reiterate: you're returning an index into some table. What are you going to do with that index, as you're claiming the table you pulled that index from cannot be indexed into for some reason? The code is fine, the example is obtuse.
I'm confused, it doesn't look like it's possible to actually do anything on this site. There's a bunch of already-completed projects you want me to look at described with text that runs outside of its bounding box, and when I manage to actually figure out how to click on one of the projects, it's one of those awful full-screen ad-pages where you write one sentence with a huge banner image and I have to scroll a page down to read the next sentence?

Is the title clickbait? You don't seem at all interested in having me create any sort of music. You seem interested in selling me on something that Beck did.
