I even would that there is personal convenience to personal vehicles. And nothing wrong with personal convenience but it's also true that some modern conveniences have a rather high cost in terms of negative externalities that I doubt we can afford any longer on this planet (yes I am looking at you, cars) while others not as much.

I am not saying that from a moral standpoint, I really like personal convenience but I don't like it so much when other people lives are made miserable to support for my personal convenience. And I'd like to think that solutions that work for the collective can be optimized to be made more convenient for everyone.

It's not an either/or proposition. The early industrial revolution had automation and technology and burning fuel too.

** Microsoft ** somehow created.

No one created any account besides the one required to download Minecraft before the acquisition.
> It's not uncommon to show "propaganda" videos to new hires when they join a company

And as a new hire it's interesting to get to know something where the company comes from. Often it makes it easier to endure some of the company's idiosyncrasies if you know their origins.
> What i don't like is fake outrage and hypocrisy from Zelesnky zealots who seem "ok" with thousands of civilians dying because one actor/Prime Minister can't understand when he is beaten.

The Ukrainians are fighting for the very existence of their country and people, the Russians commit genocide regularly in Ukraine and regularly kill and rape civilians.

> If Russia really wanted to, they have the arsenal to level and completely destroy the Ukraine and its infastructure, but they don't. Instead of understanding this fact, Zelesnky continues to "poke the bear" and continues this useless war with ever more fervor.

The bear is not getting poked, it's getting destroyed right now, in this month alone Russias losses have been staggering. Ukraine is clearly winning back large amounts of territory now with the counteroffensive. The Russians have melted in the face of a slight resistance.

Who knew that the Russian army was incapable of taking a cities a mere couple hundreds of kilometres from its border?, they are a joke compared to what the world thought of them prior to the invasion this year.

> Sometimes you have to know when you are beaten for the greater good of your countries citizens.

Should tell Putin this before the Russians roll out the T-55s. I don't think they are far off it.
Mind sharing what your in-house solution is? I have been working on something similar with extracted layers on AFS and using Podman’s additional layer store.
I think some people obstinately refuse to acknowledge that Germany has had a disastrous energy policy. Be it, putting the brakes on nuclear, continued and extensive use of coal, and reliance on Russia.

Germany is still a massive emitter because of this, in addition to being cornered because of its reliance on Russia and decision to cut it off without alternative in place.

> for completely different reasons.

Main reason being strategic energy independence. Something Germany is suddenly being reminded is important. Low emissions have come as an added benefit.

Choices were made...
I am always thinking about Vinge's "A Deepness in the Sky" and computer archeology: there is an accumulation of the code base and at some point most code will be some kind of legacy.

It is not feasible to rewrite it in the fancy language/technology du jour - huge waste of resources for things which already work fine and at the moment you are done you have to start again, since the IT-pendulum is traveling in the opposite direction.

We, as an industry are really bad at working with legacy code, but for a lot of us it may be the main task if we endure this line of work for some decades more.

That's an interesting hypothesis, I'm not sure about it.

OpenRCT2 is a re-implementation of Roller Coaster Tycoon 2; a business simulation game in which you build theme parks. It's similar to TTD (which was a predecessor from the same developer), but with much less focus on logistics and more focus on artistic creativity. OpenMW is a re-implementation of Morrowind, a fantasy roll-playing game that, by modern standards, is a bit unforgiving to beginners and doesn't have much hand holding. All three are from the 90s and arguably nerdy.

On the other hand, it's my perception that minecraft has a mature and nerdy following too. Lots of kids play it as well, but there seems to be no shortage of tech workers who are into it. I think minecraft's redstone has more to offer a nerd than any of the three above games. And there is a mature modding scene for minecraft, making the game even more technical. I think/hope throwaway290 is right, that minetest will get much more attention from capable developers once Mojang strangles the life out of Java Edition.
As someone who has never taken, and will probably never take, a Buzzfeed quiz: I think it probably risks the same kind of sampling bias. Not sure what the best way to overcome this is. Joke: government mandated surveys with monetary punishments based on your net worth if you fail to take them.
The monarch is theoretically above the law, yes.

But theory is not practice. In practice, if King Charles shivved someone in Trafalgar Square tomorrow, crowing about how he can't be prosecuted, what would happen would probably be something like:

- parliament would try to pass a law saying that we were a republic now (or that harry becomes king or whatever)

- charles would refuse royal assent

- parliament would amend the bill to remove the requirement for royal assent for primary legislation and then claim they'd pass it using itself

- people would point out that this is clearly invalid and self-referential

- it would go to the UK supreme court, who would twist themselves into knots to conclude that it's actually fine, because they know as well as anyone else that that's the only conclusion that wouldn't result in riots and the collapse of the state as a liberal democracy

- all the institutions who matter would agree that we're a republic now
SEEKING WORK | Zurich, Switzerland | Remote | Part-time or Full-time

I am a passionate software engineer that started his career working in the financial industry. Soon after, I joined R&D teams of different start-ups which gave me the opportunity to work closely with hardware and manage IT infrastructure.

Currently, I am developing cloud-based software solutions for various clients and projects with modern Java and Vue.js using agile project methodologies. I enjoy working as a full-stack developer and to constantly challenge myself.

I have a 12 years of experience (4 year apprenticeship in software engineering + 8 years industry experience), a BSc in Computer Science and a broad background in various technologies, which include Vue.js, React, .NET and Java.

I just recently joined the company KEON as a co-owner and I'm looking now for clients to work with (frontend or full-stack).

Don't hesitate to reach out to me, either for a contract, a potential collaboration or just a chat.

Is early-onset cancer an emerging global epidemic?
I can’t rule that out but the pain was completely linked to times when I was using the magic keyboard heavily for days on end. I don’t have any pain now nor do I have any pain using the magic keyboard, I just kind of healed and adjusted. This is what makes me wonder if it was some kind of fracture caused by the heavy repetition that I made worse by working through. The twisting and misalignment is all limited to the part of the finger above the knuckle and seems to be most pronounced on my index and middle fingers which again supports the hypothesis.
Kinda same as being pushed out of a relationship, yes im talking about romantic relationships where you thought everything clicked, it sucks.
Minority opinion: that kind of weather needs no improvement.
"SAP developers" can mean two different groups of people. The developers who build SAP, and the developers who build the custom stuff that clients need. The former can be quite innovative, but the situation with the latter is pretty damn grim (and I say this having worked in the industry, and my dad still works on it)

> A few years later, after a woman in Pennsylvania sent Heinz a dozen bottles of her homemade, tastier, better-looking, benzoate-free ketchup, they adopted her recipe, which was also sweet, vinegary, and thick.

The governments are protecting their tax revenue (obviously), the illusion of free market(and it's obviously fully informed agents), and less obviously public order.

What was Abe's killer motivation? A cult brainwashed his mother into giving all her money and pension to them. Abe was one of the most public and prominent supporter of this cult amongst japanese officials. He killed him.

Do you think that can happen in the US? I mean, i know that while AR-15 are authorized, most sniper rifles aren't (which makes it very clear what's the NRA is really about), but you have hunting rifles with a great range and cheap, really good optics nowadays. If the scam industry aimed towards young isolated (but with wealthy enough parents) middle class kids keep up, if one of them snap and instead of a school shooting choose to kill bitboy or any other rugpuller, what happens?

He won't be as vilified as Abe's killer from the start. Now looks what's happening in Japan with the killer and Abe's reputation. Do you think that kind of mood can encourage copycats, especially if we enter a small depression?

The influencer+scam industry, in an economically constrained period, can lead to an evolution of our belief system, from the liberal 'i get what i deserve, mostly' to the fascist 'if I'm not as (good/well of/...) as I can be, it's because of this outgroup, and particularly him'. Both are fondamental attribution error fallacy, but one is really, really more violent than the other.

Steven Weinberg’s Final Textbook
Germany has massively higher emissions than France, for instance, because of its continued reliance on coal and gas, and even oil, which is indeed partly due to its phasing out nuclear.

I think 'seriousness' on climate change should be judge on emissions numbers, not spin about renewables.
I'm saying that was the culture at the time, and to judge one nation by today's standards but not others is racist.
I don’t think that’s really a thing in the UK. In every election for over a century, when there are disagreements (and there have been many), the parties thrash it out and pick somebody to be prime minister, and that person drives to the palace for the Queen to make it official. It’s entirely ceremonial and I haven’t heard of any instance at all where she was actually involved in the decision.

There has been a lot of speculation over the years about whether Charles might be a more activist monarch, but I’ll be really surprised if he actually tries to exercise any of his theoretical powers. He might be a bit more outspoken in public, and do a lot more lobbying in private, at most.

You must have pullups and pushups backwards. I'd bet most people can do 0 pullups but can do pushups.
Yes, I do know that is a hardware thing, but I am pretty sure you already connect to more than 2 towers at the same time, even with a single sim. As for, what is the point of more than 2 at the same time. There are already plenty of people who use 2 sims to, for example, separate work and personal life, or personal stuff, and stuff like microsofts stupid 2 factor. Also, when traveling, it would be great to be able to add more sims, without disconnecting your previous sims, which may be connected to subscriptions which you might want to keep running, though, to be honest, I don't know much about how stuff like that works with esims. Even if you could only have 1 or 2 active at the same time, lots of esims you can switch on or off would be great. Also, having a bunch of burner prepaid sims which you can turn on and off is really nice.

That's a very one-sided telling of the story. Both Labour and Conservative governments struggled with the economic mess left behind by the war and the end of the empire.

And the long-term negative effects of Thatcher's legacy (much like Reagan's in the states) are being felt now. The homeless situation is (in large part) a product of Thatcher selling off public housing and turning actual care into "community care".

> then inferring my motive

I was not inferring your motive. I was asking because I don't know the answer. If you felt it was a rhetorical question, I am sorry I worded it poorly.

> I have no idea what information you know.

I know you don't, which is why I was asking if you thought a person not agreeing with you was likely the result of them not having the same information you have. I wanted to know if you were trying to convince, and if your strategy to be convincing was to "add information they might not already have." I want to know how many times you've been convinced by someone you disagree with sharing their "facts" from their reality.

> getting to the philosophy of why that is, which I don't actually think you are

I very much am interested in exactly that. That is what the purpose of my line of questioning was.

I am trying to understand why you think what you think and say what you say so that I can understand why we can't seem to share the same reality. I want to know where you think our realities diverge and why.
Not AFAIK but there are components for governance, risk and compliance, etc.

> Why has Ukraine rarely lost power, water or internet? Why isn't Russia destroying civilian infrastructure en masse? Because it's not a war in the same way the US went to war with Iraq, for example (one of the first things the US did was target civilian infrastructure).

They have lost all off these things throughout the war at different times.

> You're just a clueless American without the basic background knowledge to see this situation for what it is: a preemptive defensive strike against an ever-expanding, finance-capital-backed NATO.

Yes Russia has to commit genocide again Ukraine, Russia absolutely must rape, torture and murder civilians because of NATO. Russias action lie solely on Russia, Russia is the entity that decided to invade.
I'm not actually sure, because I feel like most of the things people do with SAP are very repetitive. Their UIs are mind-bendingly bad, but you mostly learn to do the 3 things you have to do all of the time, and then do them over and over again. I'm not sure how much having a nicer UI would make that easier.

It's absolutely not something you just randomly explore. I think that's a more interesting question: what sort of empowerment of employees could you create if the UI wasn't so terrible?

But SAP's moat is elsewhere. You put up with its terribleness because nothing else can do what it does. Beating SAP would require you to reach that, and do something else, part of which could be a nicer UI.
Cloudflare banned Kiwifarms (this ban is well justified), but Kiwifarms can still run their own servers, if they'd like.

Yeah, this example highlights the weakness of conditional expressions in Javascript in general. JSX is expression-based, and so you end up in this situation. DSLs added on top of HTML can add something resembling the conditional statements that many are used to. Still, JSX needs the TC39 proposals for the do expression or pattern matching to pass to improve the situation.

There have been tons of innovation in the field of electrical engineering since the standard voltages and frequencies were fixed. New installations are made to a better standard than older ones, while still maintaining interoperability. They don't blindly stick to the status quo without ever questioning if there's a more cost-efficient option like big-corp IT departments tend to do.

I've never seen myself as a "royalist", but this is truly a loss.
Novice react developers reach for useEffect way too often, because they are still thinking in terms of state transitions instead of declarative states. I have spent a lot of time teaching people not to do that. They always end up very happy once they get it, because now they can build complex UIs and have a solid strategy for compartmentalization, which makes bug whack-a-mole go away.

It's not a fault in the framework, it's a fault in their understanding, where they don't know how to implement features in O(N) lines of code instead of O(N^2).

The hint is in the name: you're supposed to think in terms of formal functional Effects that mount and unmount independently and compose orthogonally.

The result will be a code base that remains maintainable even though you've kept on adding more nuanced features over months and months.

Also, your snippet doesn't cause an infinite loop at all because modifying local variables does not trigger a rerender. If you had written setA / setB, sure, it would... but I think this perfectly illustrates the explicit vs implicit distinction.

Great frameworks don't trap developers in local maxima.

I have exactly 0 trust in such statements after Amazon's "New world" fiasco. I mean, it technically might be processed by human, hired from 3rd world country and paid next to nothing but it doesn't change the result: large number of reports was enough to ban people, no one check if those reports made any sense. Nor if they were all made by enemy clan.
There's a common understanding amongst Aussies (or at least, the Aussies that I know) that we were waiting for Liz to die before getting on with becoming a republic. For 2 reasons:

1. There was a sense of loyalty to Liz personally. She did a good job of Queening and it seemed almost rude to interrupt that.

2. No-one wants Charles as king. He's very weird, and has ideas that he actually wants to do things with.

I fully expect the referendum to be brought forward because of her death, and for it to get a strong "yes".
