Isn't this basically just "tar cvzf output.tar.gz /source/path" ?

I'm sure there's more to it, but reading the description tar seems to check most of (if not all) the boxes.

- File attributes (ownership, permissions, dates, etc)

- Extended attributes

- Multiple filesystems (tar is somewhat filesystem agnostic)

- Splitting into multiple volumes (tar -M for multi volume)

- Checksumming (tar does checksums on metadata, but not data)

- Restoring corrupt archives (tar skips unreadable parts of the data stream)

Setting up the JavaFX development environment for anything post-JDK8 was incredibly difficult. I was recently tasked with creating an internal GUI application and re-visited JavaFX development after a few years' absence from the space.

I have to say, IntelliJ has come a long way. I was able to create a new JavaFX project from template and the magic green "Run" button worked out of the box. If you've previously been off-put by the difficulty in getting up and running with JavaFX, it's worth it to take another look since some of the improvements by IntelliJ. It feels a lot like the JDK8 days.
My impression is Python packaging is stuck in a local maximum, and that any attempt to move out of it will be as disruptive as 2->3. Dropping support for conda et al will only split the ecosystem, hasten the rise of Julia, and make Python packaging more acrimonious. I like your simplified approach (and take a similar approach where I can), but much of the value of Python comes from its ability to be inserted without too much fuss (assuming you'd build things from source) into an existing system. I'd suggest while wheels were a good idea at the time, they've become a parallel ecosystem and source of division.
My focus is usually from a game dev standpoint.
I might see how quickly I can put together an A* algorithm on a 2d array.
Or Conway's game of life as a similar, how easily can I process these things.

Should note I often work on 2d tile based games.
I could not find anything that would prevent this in my brief skim of FVMSS 105 (US car brake regulations). The regulations are mainly about the performance of the braking system (eg: needs to stop car 10x from 60mph in under a specific distance) and only care a little about the specific technique.

You should see what you propose on cheap cars if motor pricing becomes less than the cost of regular hydraulic brakes.

Is that actually the test? That still sounds like it would make every third-party CDN (Cloudflare, Akami, etc) illegal - a CDN isn’t “necessary” and logs IP addresses all over the place. I can’t help but feel that the situation is much more complicated and nuanced than the original comment in this thread is making it sound.
I will treat it like every other advertisement that I cannot skip: mute. I just mute and look at my phone, because I will not watch ads.
Accessibility. It was by far the most accessible Diablo game. You didn’t have to go find some complicated build to feel strong. You could literally play anything.
It is not. It is an ancient notation that became fashionable again when clocks were being developed. Watchmakers just followed the sensibilities of their times, and everything sophisticated had to look Roman.

Apple isn't in the same market. It helps to look at the actual overview because it explains what they mean by markets and why apple isn't in the same market:

What's key in this is that it's about google taking their dominant position in one market and using it to exert undue influence in another market.
Correct, I'm one of them.

Basically because IntelliJ had support for Play Framework projects and was getting weird errors in Netbeans for some reason.

At the time Netbeans seemed ( and was ) dead on the water so I invested a bit o energy and frustration to learn the IntelliJ ins and outs of operating.

Still, I think and maybe it's an unpopular opinion, Netbeans auto-complete was top-notch and more "intelligent" than IntelliJ's, also much lighter IDE, IntelliJ has to thank the silicon Gods for all the cheap available RAM and processing power.
I assume it's similar to the Microsoft case https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Corp._v._Commission "The fines will not be distributed to the companies that lost income due to Microsoft practices. The money paid in fines to the European Court goes back into the EU budget"

2019 EU's budget was 148m EUR.

What did they fuck up about D2 remaster? I thought they did quite a good job.
We've been using JavaFX for some internal tools, and the user base is generally fairly pleased. There are even libraries out there that handle automatic updates and the like. I would definitely continue to use JavaFX for trivial desktop applications that do one job and need to do it well.
Greed ruins a lot of things, as does the notion that everything can be sacrificed for growth; the logical conclusion of quantity over quality is everything sucks.
This is an amazing article. Thanks for sharing.
The thing which always irks me about the "I have nothing to hide" comment is would you behave the same if you were being observed. The conversations we all have in the pub, in the car and even in the privacy of our home - would they be the same knowing there is a camera or audio device listening.

May just be my tin foil hat speaking, but I believe a lot of things would change knowing you're always being listened to even when you think it's just two people in the room
In this instance I'm definitely talking about Macintosh.
For a Preschool-Kindergarten range:

PBS Kids has at least two free apps: one video streaming, and one educational games. Both are great.

Sensical [1] is a free streaming service/app that only includes content that meet Common Sense Media criteria. Common Sense Media [2] rates/reviews media for quality and age-appropriateness.

Kanopy [3] is a streaming service/app that is freely available through many libraries. It has a walled-off kids area with movies, shows, and videobooks that are not garbage. I have no concerns letting my kid loose in the kids area to choose among that content.

YouTube Kids [4] is a free streaming service/app that can be terrible or decent. To be decent, you must curate the content yourself (rather than the algorithm) so you have to find and add "channels" or even individual videos, and remove them when they are outgrown. Some channels I found are...

YTK General: PBS Kids (collection of 5 channels), Sesame Studios (collection of 6 channels), Khan Academy Kids, Bluey, Deep Look, PBS Space Time, TheDadLab, Super Sema, Mystery Doug, Brainzy Games, The Kiboomers [for toddlers]

YTK Animals: Nat Geo Kids, The Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden, Animal Wonders Montana, San Diego Zoo, BBC Earth Kids

YTK Drawing: Super Simple Draw, Muffalo Potato, Draw So Cute, Art for Kids Hub, drawstuffrealeasy, Red Ted Art

Enough with the streaming video. For educational but fun apps, I recommend:

PBS Kids Games, as mentioned before.

Khan Academy Kids [5].

Teach Monster: Reading for Fun [6].

NumberBlocks/Alphablocks [7] have freemium game apps (NumberBlocks World, AlphaBlocks World) that combine the show and games. They also have lame free apps (MeetTheNumberBlocks, MeetTheAlphaBlocks) that I wouldn't waste time on.

With regards to not caring about free speech, I am trying to picture myself being in this hypothetical situation: lets imagine I was ran by a car and was denied the right to do or say anything about it because the driver was some prominent person, I'm picturing myself in such situation and I'm glad we still have free speech...
Ask HN: What language do you have the most fun writing in, and why?
Why would they? Imagine you are an organization to create something, and you ... do that, while having ads, (with additional other supports). E.g. I don't think phoronix.com is optimized for engagement. Why can't Michael (phoronix guy) do the articles because it is his job, and not because he want to maximize the ads?
>Again: this is all data Amazon totally has access to. Whether they are failing to gather it, failing to recognize its value, or simply choosing not to use it when they know it's creating a lot of bad recommendations, is unclear.

Lol. They have probably defined how to money is to be sent to them. Even if they had not it's probably better to stfu and comply. More your try to fuck with the regulators, more they will punish you.
I have read it, I read it long ago, I've got a copy of Joel on Software in handy reach. But during the last year I migrated a ASP.NET--WinForms and VB.NET--project to Oracle APEX/ORDS. I'd have vastly preferred to leave it to be maintained as it was: but Microsoft had bought the company the produced an important set of controls, and had dropped support for that package; but for a number of reasons the system was hard to secure; etc.

Large? The component I migrated amounted to fewer than a dozen pages, with a lot of Javascript and T-SQL in addition to the VB.NET. Old? Say 2010.
How long can you keep the term 'next generation' on your homepage and not trigger ridicule? Given the project is over a decade old, you gotta wonder what it considers 'current generation'.
Eh there might be another bump. But as long as it's a space for scammers, pump-and-dump schemes, shitcoins and bullshitters it's just not for me. A pretty ridiculous amount of money has been sunk into making cryptocurrencies look like a big thing, instead of actually solving the problems that prevented people from actually using them. That makes me think that deep down the cryptocurrency people aren't that serious about their projects becoming actual currencies, and that they simply see them as a way to get rich quick by selling something they know to be ultimately worthless. Quite a few people have gotten rich (hello, Do Kwon!) so there's a chance it could work for those founders. But as a potential end-user, nahh no thanks I've seen enough
It is indeed peculiar that even though humans have communicated over written word for so long, so many are seemingly unaware of this fact.
This seems to be a very big fine ($4.12B), much bigger than any "cost of business" I can think of. What are the chances that google will actually have to pay it?

They could re-appeal [0] or play some other judicial trick. Or maybe they say "enough is enough" and don't pay it.

They have been appealing the €2.42 billion fine from July 2017 even now[1]. So I don't think that they have any intention to pay this much larger fine any time soon.

Google's stock is already doing bad this year and this will likely make it worse (although the early trading today hasn't shown any indication of a change.)

I agree, given how much I rely on my phone/computer to just work, I'd not personally be willing to make the usability and reliability tradeoffs with switching to something like a PinePhone. Plus there are some other steps you can take to reduce the privacy/security risks of relying on Google/Apple/etc., for example I use PiHole/Tailscale for DNS and Cryptomator for files stored in the cloud

Maximize utility.

Maximize search accuracy.

Give people what they want rather than string them along for as much time as possible.
The real insight I'm gettimg here is just to curb our consumption to a great extent. The fact that shipping new products is cheaper than reinventoring used ones is an indication that we are on a death spiral. Having the move fast and break things crowd come up with a solution to consumer electronic prices is just going to accelerate pollution that much more. And I am aware of the sweet irony of typing all this on a phone whose low price depends on complex supply chains.

Is there really anything you can do or say that will change peoples mind? If people don't see the problem, then explaining it is one thing, and I think the bathroom thing works okay. It won't cause them to change their mind, but you can convince them of the problem. Even if their privacy is blatantly misused a large number of people wouldn't change their mind.

Yup. For serious people like military, etc they do keep important info in NON-digital form. When Snowden revelations came out, Russians switched to type writer for their internal memos.

Have you looked at the margin of game studios? A bad launch could shut them down seemingly overnight.
The root is that at some point (late 20th century) the cheap wine became as good as the good wine. So the key differentiating metric for most of the space turned from performance to marketing. The high-end got pushed into the stratosphere (I'll never own a pair of electrostats) and everything else is good enough (hopefully, sometimes there is incompetence).

So if it's all good enough for the mass market then the audiophiles need to look in the mirror and ask what they're after. Some will say a mystical, ethereal experience. Some will say total control over the signal chain from outside the body to inside. These are orthogonal wants crammed into a single market.

The second path is harder, but it at least the end result is some form of truth. Very few engineers want to devote themselves to a pointless crusade for a tiny market of consumer goods. There's better things to do on the weekend. However, when they do it's special.

Yeah but that is really debateable. What most people do is just put really broad terms in their data protection declaration. I think there have been a couple "Abmahnungen" but this was never really tested in court, right?

Personally, I think hotlinking should not be considered leaking of PII. Setting a link should not imply endorsement, and embedding an image or an iframe should not create a derived work. The website just gives instructions to the user's browser. I could change the font myself or open another window with the embedded image next to the website, it is merely a convenience. But lawmakers try to put everything in the mold of yesterdays technologies, which is why we cannot have nice things.

Now, how to deal with the fact that Google does get your IP and/or can identify you with cookies? Just ban profiling. It's not so hard.

No, haven't seen Idiocracy (yet) - but I remember seeing a short clip of the ads you mention.

If I remember correctly, when I went to university 20+ years ago, "animation blindness" was already a coined term. The idea is, that you can't use animated buttons or icons on your website, because people have become condition to completely ignore anything that moves, and consider it NOT part of the website. So if you do have an animated button, you risk that people will miss that, because anything that looks like an ad becomes sorta invisible to most.

> In the present case, the General Court notes at the outset that the Commission identified, first of all, four types of relevant market: (i) the worldwide market (excluding China) for the licensing of smart mobile device operating systems; (ii) the worldwide market (excluding China) for Android app stores; (iii) the various national markets, within the EEA, for the provision of general search services; and (iv) the worldwide market for non OS-specific mobile web browsers. The Commission went on to find that Google held a dominant position on the first three of those markets.

Does javafx have any CDI integration for event handling or window management? That’d be the holy grail for me.
The different EDI standards are pretty explicit about the sequence of messages (276/277, etc.), acknowledgments (technical, functional, etc.), and conversation items (interchange IDs, duplicates, sender/receiver IDs, etc.). And yes, there is a requirement that EDI transactions do something or represent something that does something, in a specific way.

EDI does a lot of things, but its transport and semantics are visibly decoupled, whereas in web APIs, they appear to be somewhat uniform.

Web API is far from vague; on the contrary, it might even be more stringent (and selective) as the inbound data goes via multiple stages of validation as opposed to EDI, which does "take-all" data, then either "parse all" or "reject-all".

The same argument could be made about your home. A dedicated burglar will get your possessions (including data drives) given time and resources so you should not be surprised to have everything you own taken and your identity stolen.

Again, the same argument could be used about your physical person. Given time and resources someone could kidnap and torture you so you shouldn't be surprised if that happens.

I'm finally building my first real game in Godot as a hobby developer, and I couldn't be happier for this news. Godot is the game engine I always wanted; it's powerful like Unity, but easy to hack something together with like GameMaker. I feel freed from architecture and implementation decisions because the built in decisions made by the engine are more than good enough for everything I want to build. Every time I think "hmm, I wonder if there's a pre existing pattern for this", the engine already has a solution.

Sure it's not the most polished product in the world, and I run into bugs occasionally, but IME it's no worse than I experienced when using Unity in a previous job. I've had the editor crash on me a grand total of once (and it was my fault, I was writing an editor extension that contained an accidental stack bomb), and nearly every system behaves the way you would expect it to out of the box with no tweaking. I _cannot_ say the same about Unity, which crashed on me at least daily and took 100x as long to open as Godot, and had systems that behaved completely nonsensically unless you massaged them extremely carefully.

All in all, I love Godot and I can't wait to see where this venture goes.
