There's this assumption by for profit business that all people will have modern software with modern JS support. They're wrong and the tools they use to measure such things are implemented in a way they won't ever know they're wrong. What JS is in terms of what features are used to write those frontends changes far faster than the software that resides on a great many people's computers.
Does that mean you don't use google search? Its been back a long time.

What do you prefer for search if not?
Or just use KeePassXC+nextcloud/syncthing as others have suggested, it's just an encrypted database with no cloud bullshit.
Trump and Biden agree on something – changing Section 230
IMO the essay you linked to is ethically stunted and not particularly serious.

For example, it wants to hold independent the development of software and the ownership of software, which is pointless since they are not independent. Software doesn't necessarily get developed whether or not anyone is paid to do it, and people don't necessarily pay for software to be written (or anything else) without having some control over the the software (or anything else).

It seems nice that software is written that is only for free distribution, but it seems dead wrong that those should be the only terms under which software is written.

RHS thinks I don't have the right to trade my own time -- my own time -- simply because what I do with that time is write software.

IMO, it's a fundamental right to be able to come to come to terms with another person and there's no special exception because written code is part of the exchange.
Yes, and it is detrimental to the espoused value of intellectual curiosity. Sincere disagreement is fertile soil for productive discourse. It gives each side an opportunity to test and refine their beliefs and learn from one another. If you suppress one side or the other, no one is forced to be rigorous in their thinking or reexamine their priors. Everyone gets trapped in an intellectual local maximum. The result is threads like this, full of comments nearly identical to each other and devoid of anything interesting.
> There are lighter-weight shadow dom frameworks out there (than Vue/React/Angular) so why would you want to write one yourself?

You can even avoid a shadow DOM or vDOM entirely and differentially render using the DOM itself:

The JS framework benchmark shows these two are among the top performers.
IDK if it's German vs American, but bakery-white-bread (or supermarket-baked-white-bread) is so much better and crispier than stuff you get in a plastic bag. Almost as good as one I make in a bread-maker, minus all the fuss.
Interesting! I remember running up into the same problem when I was trying to recreate a way to simulate pen ink strokes digitally but eventually gave up because it was quite difficult to get something working in all cases.

Could this approach be extended to variable thickness offsets? I mean can you setup an initial offset and a final offset and then interpolate between them along the curve?
Weird that this is framed as a bad thing. Fats are good.
Tiktok has replaced youtube for me. Shorter form video means less of a chance to sell me junk, more "in the flesh" content from real people.

For example I wanted to find a specific room on a cruise ship and someone recorded it in 30 seconds on tiktok. The _specific_ room! Youtube is becoming cable TV, too many grifters and long form content for no reason other than to make a buck.

On tiktok, I found great content for replacing a toilet flush mechanism, drilling pilot holes into wood to hang lights, a cruiseship stateroom walkthrough, CPU benchmarks, GPU benchmarks, Anker charging device review, it doesn't stop there.

Google should most definitely be afraid. They are losing this game.
We should be able to acknowledge disabilities without people feeling dehumanized
Well maybe, but on the other hand this makes pay walling far more trivial and accessible, so it'll likely be even more common.

Google just wants that Nebula money.
I agree with the sentiment, but in practice there are plenty of times where it's best to limit the audience. Posting in a public channel with more than a handful of people can lead to multithreaded discussions spiralling in various directions that aren't relevant to the original post.

It can also lead to issues when members of the chat have varying degrees of context. Shared understanding is ideal, but it's impractical for everyone to be aware of everything so there's a balance to strike.

Public chats are somewhere between the extreme of broadcasting everything to everyone and talking only in private chats. There's definitely a lot of middle ground.
The same is true of react. Modern web frameworks ooze with lessons learned from React’s design.
I'm guessing you don't have a family? I easily went without a car when single living in SF. Now with a house and kids, two cars are used daily.
It isn't just silence. There are usually a set of things in a severance deal - like agreeing not to sue for wrongful termination or reconfirming existing NDA or exclusivity or other employment terms. When I've been on the managerial side of things removing the potential downside of any future lawsuits was the overriding concern.
okay, sure you did it.. congrats... but I could do in much less work/lines of code the same:

see: https://jsfiddle.net/patrickcurl/zoastuLr/11/

html: 104 lines
css: 39 lines
js: 62 lines.

The major difference is I can easily 'read' and understand and 'grok' what my code is doing, yours needs more brain power to tie everything together. The majority is layout, css, etc.

Sure vue/react are overkill but alpinejs, etc makes closer to vanilla options viable that still at least have some eye-candy/syntactical-sugar that makes coding sweeter. But, I hate ugly code - I'll abstract away ugly code just to have code that's self-documenting and easy to understand.
Yup. My 'nobody wanted to touch it in the last 2 decades' hypotheses was more referring to how the feature might have made sense in the earlier days when Google respects all the keywords in our search queries. As Google evolved, it became impossible to drill into those results, but there's no upside for any product manager to change/remove it.
Everyone is just afraid they'll be brought up on charges for paying Akamai for DDOS protection after Akamai DDOS's their site.
I spend hours per week learning on youtube. The strength of it is finding 10 year old obscure videos with gems that aren't covered by big content houses. I've gone hundreds of hours deep into subjects I would not have if I had to pay and sign up and quiz and be quantized. All the while taking ads in the face like a good boy. I've always worried about the day Youtube starts killing (what I think is) its best feature, and I think we are finally there.
Slicing it myself goes through the bread faster, but I'm used to european bread / loaf though.

Our sliced bread is very different from wonder bread.
How sure are you of that?
Because it is just a pretext and not an actual reason.

I found the original "C Programming Language" by Kernighan and Ritchie ("K&R") at my university bookstore in, maybe, 1980. I read it cover to cover twice on a plane flight, memorizing it, and immediately recognized its superiority over Pascal as it existed then. Everyone who made a Pascal extended it, incompatibly with everybody else, to try to match C. Any of those would have sufficed, but none could win.

Or you bet against fads and hope that your consistent brand will develop an increasingly loyal and appreciative following over the long term.

You could lose that bet, but sometimes cashing in on today’s hot trends means washing out and being forgotten when they change. You’re making bets every where you look.
For those wondering, the quote in the submission is in the first paragraph of the Preface, page vii.

> "The issue is, I think, exactly that everyone must be at least partially a salesman to get ahead. Is this what we want?"

Regardless of what we as a society want, and even if YouTube never existed, it's the reality that salesmanship is always important to some extent.

Persuasive communication is important even outside of business: it's key for academia to get grants, it's important for non-profits to get funding and volunteers, and it's important for individuals who want to improve their lives (even in relationships). I know several people who are technically brilliant, but have abrasive personalities and/or fail to get their point across to key stakeholders, so they don't achieve what they want.

There is a difference between honest salesmanship and sales pitches that include lies or fraud. It's necessary to sell, but you can play the game with some ethics instead of not playing at all and losing out.
Yeah, not sure why people like to take PR discussions private so much. One workaround is to just post summaries of the private conversations as comments after the fact.

"Discussed A, B, C with <@person> and we agreed on <plan of action>"
Except it’s not lensless. It has an array of micro lenses.
I feel the same about pre-sliced bagels. That some jurisdictions have an additional tax on sliced bagels makes the notion, to me, even more absurd.

Sliced bread has plenty of obvious benefits, but I hate how it's sold in the US. In Japan it's sold in smaller cubes.

You don't usually have to worry about left over bread going moldy from a huge loaf, or ruining the texture by freezing leftovers.

But the best part is that you can choose the slice size. If you want delicious soft in the middle toast for breakfast you can choose a brick in four or six slices. If you want a sandwich, select six or eight slices. I think you can go all the way down to 10 or 12, but never liked my bread that thin.
At the time people bought computer magazines mainly for the ads. The articles were filler. Newspapers, too: editors in newsrooms actually called the reportage "filler".

BYTE differed in its filler being of typically better quality, but Computer Shopper was much, much bigger, and much more popular despite its execrable filler because it had more and better ads.
Wow, you're smarter than I am, or at least more persistent. I ran into the same thing and I figured it was some sort of privacy issue or something and just switched to looking the numbers up on Bing. Pretty sure it used to work to google numbers without the dashes.
Or bragging about a pet project they made with vanilla HTML/CSS/JS that's any or multiple of:

* not particularly impressive in terms of UI requirements

* likely took them 10x the amount of time it would have taken if they just used a framework

* doesn't make any API calls

* doesn't manage any/much state

* is composed of code that no one else would be able to easily hop into and refactor if working in a team scenario

I think this is the flip-side. They want to support remote wipe, which means they can pull access.
They have a veto, they didn't exercise it to protect democracy, and the only person with power to prorogue parliament was the Queen so she became actively involved in the subversion of our democracy. Keeping parliament open would have been more democratic, and was the default line. There are other reasons, but that was what pushed me over the edge personally to accepting they may be a useful aspect of our pseudo-constitutional monarchy to considering that they genuinely only want to maintain their positions, to feed at the trough.
In your case of a lithium mine, software would not add any harm, and it's unlikely that the mine would be infeasible but for the software. Ideally the software makes the mine more efficient (and thus less harmful).

An easier target is just anything that uses up more energy than it saves; video games use a lot of energy and give us what in return?

At any rate yes it's probably too draconian in its present wording.
A lot of noise in the signal over there. I find YouTube to be full to the brim with absolutely brain-rotting stuff like "Brightside!", "Quickfacts!", "Get smarter every day!", and stuff that is more on the dumb trivia side than actual, usable knowledge.
This is hilarious. Those web apps are single page applications, more application than page. The most of what face book does in the background has nothing to do with what the user can see, for example. A chat might require interactivity, but static designs with push and pull work well enough for many use cases, with sparse scripting. The bespoke tutorials might rather target a geocities homepage, admittedly.

It's funny to see how responses in this thread jump immediately to reactivity or "skills you can reuse across projects" but without making the case: why?

I still don't know why ICANN gets to tell people what they can or cannot have as their TLD name. It's just a string, it doesn't cost anything more to compare on the DNS server if it's custom or standard.
Well there is historically quite solid Alpha to be gained from the dead simple strategy of buy and hold. That's just another dead simple strategy after all, yet plenty of people recommend it.
If you have to buy the course to get access to this, I am not sure it will matter. I watch lots of youtube videos, and I pay for courses from places like udemy, but... I don't see myself as converting the things I already pay a youtube subscription (or a Nebula subscription, etc.) to watch into paid courses.

If it's cheap enough to temp companies like udemy to use it, fine, but then if would effectively be invisible to me. I don't care how udemy hosts their videos.
Irregular slices...

The "dad's joke" of my grandfather. I'm not sure my translation is good, but hopefully it is good enough.

Granddad: Do you want a slice to hold in one hand or in two?

Me: mm... in two.

Granddad carefully cuts a slice so thin, that it is impossible to hold it in one hand.
I am sorry for whatever happened/happens to your mom. That being said, when looking at cold hard data, this is a valid point.

We all have various weird stuff in us, the older the more. Cystes, weird bulges, benign cancers that wont kill us for 50 years. If you are a male say above 40 or 50, you probably have some very early (or not) prostate cancer.

Often you need an invasive procedure to get more info. Even then its quite often not 100% clear if surgery is overall safer and better than keeping and monitoring.

We like this idea of omnipotent medicine but its a pipe dream. Difficult procedures are extremely expensive regardless of location (US stands apart as always but still a valid point), and even ignoring price there simply isnt enough staff/equipment. Covid and often selfish clueless people certainly didnt help.

Medicine tries to fix as much as it can, which is mostly not enough. The hard part is accepting that when it becomes about a close one. There is no easy solution.

Source: wife is an emergency/gp doctor, went through this countless times. And much worse, even smart people become completely irrational, cruel or selfish very easily in such situations.

Electric outlets. Electric outlets everywhere.

It's the less fancy recommendation here, but you will never regret having too many electric outlets.
ASlso, docker to me seems quite leaky in terms of abstractions (especially the networking side) compared to something like a freeBSD jail.

why does docker networking need to be infinitely complex? freebsd solved this issue far more cleanly two decades ago without having to emulate entirely new networking spaces.
In essence all you have for objects in Java is pointers.

For the primitive types, like long, you can't get a null pointer exception, because there really is no pointer, but for any object type it's actually a pointer, the object itself lives on the heap and you're given a pointer to it, if the object is null, that's a null pointer. They don't feel much like pointers from a language like C because you're not provided with pointer arithmetic - you can't try to add my_object + 16 as you could in C - and because Java was a modern language which knows what you mean when you write foo.bar, unlike C and C++ which expect you to remember whether foo is a pointer and write foo->bar so that the poor compiler needn't figure it out.

For modern Java the compiler does escape analysis and may conclude an object cannot "escape" in which case it may be created as part of the stack frame of the code which uses it instead of on the heap, but it's still basically a pointer.

This is all rather awkward, for example Java's 64-bit double precision floating point number is a primitive, always 8 bytes on your stack no need for a pointer to anything - but if you want your custom four 16-bit integers type (maybe representing RGBA) that's an Object so it is treated differently even though it's also just 8 bytes. C gets this part right, your custom types (struct, and to a lesser extent enum and union) aren't treated so much worse than the language built-in types.

Anyway, it's Memory Safe because the null pointer exception is essentially the same behaviour as if you try to unwrap() a None in Rust, the JVM isn't going to let you just "press on" as you might in C, you've got a programming error and must either recover from that or your program aborts.
Better drivers license than social security numbers right?

Yaaaaaay...
I could say that about literally anything. A house, a shoe, a radio, a soldering iron, a phone. Everything goes to zero sooner or later. My retirement plan includes selling off the car and moving to south east asia where I'll buy a 125cc moped, so I definitely plan to "cash out" sooner or later and not for another car.
In fact, all these things have socioeconomic determinants.

Air pollution has a relatively small effect compared to the others.
Imagine a salesman comes to your door selling residential cellular internet. He says it will cost the same as your existing wired internet, and will offer the same speeds.

The benefit is that it will have a lower carbon footprint because the ISP's power is provided exclusively by wind and solar. The downside is that it will only run when there is wind power or solar power available.

Would you make the switch?
How is what that paper describes different from how herpes zoster, HIV, and hepatitis C stick around forever?
there are several tiers of companies, tech product focused companies tend to pay more, but they also require you to have sense of ownership for the product. Companies decided to pay more to have self-driven engineers that figure out by themselves what to do, rather than hire nanny for each engineer that gives and monitors tasks.

totally cool if you dont have that, you can work at some bank or hospital and work in your own style, but the compensation will be smaller

It's worth noting that in the 1940s, gender roles were more segregated and families were bigger than they are today.

_Wives_ were expected to make breakfast and lunch for their husbands and their children; the fine article itself contains an anecdote of one woman being expected to slice 22 slices every morning, by hand, with one knife.

It's amusing how far the pendulum has swung the other way -- in 2020 instant yeast was in short supply so folks made sourdough starters, but there was plenty of flour (and bread knives - which now can be had for $7, about 33 cents in 1940s money) to go around. A hot fresh loaf out of the oven is now a novelty.
Did somebody wake up on the wrong side of the bed?
I think the catch is different on this one. They seem to co-optimize the optics hardware and the processing software. They say that new manufacturing allows this kind of stuff. Which I think is cool.Still I wonder how much difference this will realistically make. In my experience (from printed electronics) new customizable manufacturing processes often also come at some cost and expose a lot of new effects, so is difficult to break even with something that keeps one side stable. Although particularly in optics new smartphone lenses I guess have proven how good you can get with such approaches.
The title is misleading about the work. The real novelty here is the particular deep-learning processing for the 3D reconstruction.
> I would recommend if you want to write notes or create an external mind to improve your thinking just write.

Agreed. Personally, I still use paper + pencil for a lot of things. Even if I never rustle through my stacks of notes to find it again, I already got a big chunk of the value from just writing it.

Aside: I find rustling through my notes to be useful in itself, even though it's inefficient on the surface. Electronic systems are so good at finding exactly what you want as quickly as possible that the "browse around and see what you bump into" experience can get lost.

Sometimes I'll just happen to see diagram X next to diagram Y and come up with a new insight, where if I only ever saw what I was specifically looking for, I'd lose that. Though I do waste a lot of time, too (:
Another thing is requiring continuity clauses in the contract. Such as, in the case of going out of business or otherwise deciding to discontinue the project, the IP and source code needs to be turned over.
