Yes I've been to Rojava :)

They talk a big talk about socialism but honestly I wasn't seeing it in the cities like Qamishlo. Full of capitalist street vendors and the like, and poverty on the outskirts. Honestly they seemed pretty vanilla capitalist outside the 'mustache-jesus' (Apo) talk you see in YPG, etc. I do recall free bread/naan line on the street.

In the firmly 'Rojava' 'owned' cities like Deyrik the general structure of the people and markets reminded me quite a bit of Barzani controlled KRG. Of course, I spent most my time with the militia and not civil life, so I'm sure there's lots I missed. I think many of the 'true believers' in the old Kurdish socialist causes probably migrated more to the Iraqi Mountains, sadly those people are getting pounded on by the Turks.
Ask HN: Chrome Devtool memory is not effective, do you feel the same way?t
When you check 'Heap Snapshot' in Devtool, Javascript VM instance show current memory. But if you're testing a memory intensive page, the page will make it latency.

* Stats.js capable to show memory occupation with no latency, I don't know why Devtool can't make it happen.
* 'Allocation instrumentation on timeline' take timeline snapshot, but you can not watch memory usage when snapshotting.

Use Heap Snapshot take 2 memory snapshot to make a diff, and find out where memory leak. But when you testing a memory leaking suspicious page, it will show millions of objects like this:

Object@4863
Object@4865
Object@4867
Object@4869
Object@4871
Object@4873
Object@4875
Object@4877
Object@4879

* You can not identify which Class of these objects easily, even you examine the object hierarchy.

So, how do you use Devtool for memory leak hunting?
All the alternatives off the top of my head seem worse. WhatsApp, for example, is owned by Meta.

Maybe Android could pick up Matrix support out of the box?
Certainly not an Integer, but all that you're saying when you go with String is that the data has no constraints at all.

There's almost always a regular language more constrained and useful than .* that contains the entire set of acceptable terms (although sometimes it'll be a strict superset, in which case DFA acceptance cannot constitute complete validation).
You've just described thousands of years of history.

Maybe it should be returned to mother earth, that way there would be no violence in the chain of ownership.
They only reason theyd do this is for reputation. They don't want a good reputation with people in risky business.
I wonder how long it will be before cheap TVs have no input ports (just a WIFI connection). That way the TV gets to decide what you watch to some extent. For example by interrupting your Netflix stream with a few ads from time to time.
Nothing but the cost, marketing, and effort to rebuild yet another design app.

"Why would I use that when I can get figma, XD, or zeplin"
Wow, so this is why the marketing departments exists. I thought this was related to actual plasmas TVs lol.

Looks pretty cool though. I'm keen on open source privacy minded software I can run on my TV. Currently, I have Kodi and it would be nice to have other high quality alternatives.
I know that that's what GDPR is supposed to be about, but it's not what the fast majority of the pop-ups are about. Most pop-ups I've encountered are explicitly about cookies, not about any other kind of tracking.

And besides that, I think it's really naive to assume you've got any influence on tracking that sites do on their site. With cookies I know I can choose to save them on my machine or not. If a website uses the fingerprint of my computer to identify me, they'll almost certainly keep doing that after I've rejected their cookies.
Honestly, PoW seems like a big problem but the reality is that miners have been boosting the solar companies. Solar is cheaper than most other power sources and any miner will tell you that the cheaper the power the more profit they make.

Not only is it a cost center it’s also seen as a hindrance to the fast progress. Rarely will you come across an exec who takes security seriously. For them it’s just a checkbox at best and an obstacle at worst. I’m speaking about application security though. It’s possible that IT sec, physical security etc are taken more seriously.

You can upon sign up of any bank account not allow overdraft. In fact it is an opt-in feature, that depends on your bank they communicate properly with you. I have for instance ensured there is no overdraft added in our business accounts.

Or perhaps I am missing something here?

But yes, please remove overdraft from your accounts. I have no input to offer on paypal at this time.

P.S. Are you in the U.S.? I am just really surprised they bank deemed overdraft as a necessary feature in your case. I am personally interested in this case.
> But hey, scheme is nice. No manual memory management, as simple as it comes syntax, very little to get started, excellent REPL, if it were in my power, I'd go back to college and have my first programming class in Scheme.

I'd argue that C-style syntax has largely (though not completely) won out. Python is a departure from this for sure, as well as various functional languages, but Scheme and other LISP languages are an order of magnitude more different. The basics like function definitions, not actually quoting both ends of strings in all cases, etc. It's just very different than basically the rest of the languages out there. This alone makes learning with Scheme to start not really better than what this thread is about -- complaints about the way BlueJ was pushed in university to have next to no real-world applicability. Yes, you can get jobs writing Scheme and you can write productive applications. However, you're going to be a step behind everyone else trying to figure out C or C++ for the first time and those syntax semantics matter a great deal when they're essentially reused in 80-90% of other languages out there.

Also, in the pre-Java days "excellent REPL" wasn't really common, so you're really comparing more modern versions and what we have today to the times before Java sort of became the de facto "intro to programming" language.

Sure, it has some pros but I think it was a mistake to make it the intro to CS language of choice, even over something like BASIC or Delphi. In my professional life the closest I've come to needing to write Scheme is in working with LDAP queries.

"What’s a little strange, however, is how little archaeological evidence of torture in the past has been found so far. Archaeologists have found evidence of violence between humans dating back to the Paleolithic, but the Milanese wheel victim is one of very few clear cases of actual torture, despite how often torture is mentioned in historical records beginning in ancient times."

My first hypothesis would be that mentioning torture far more often than using it proved effective? Make loud examples.
PCIe provides standby power on 3.3v only. I can't find a specific number for "standby" but even not in standby it seems to be 1100mA @ 3.3v =~ 3.63W - so may be enough. You'd need a step-up to 5V for the CM4 though.

Seems like it may be borderline enough for the video part not being active but maybe similar to USB it might be "not quite enough".

> For Pi to have any meaning requires a universe with at least two dimensions

There is no such requirement. Mathematical constructs have meaning even outside of their most immediately obvious manifestation (such as the application of geometry to the understanding of physical space). Even a one-dimensional intelligent being, if such a thing is even possible, would eventually encounter pi, alongside the basics of euclidian geometry, as soon as they start doing math on datasets measuring more than one feature, as such datasets are embedded in n-dimensional spaces, where n is the number of independent features, even if physical space has less than n dimensions.

It's frustrating juggling 5-6 different apps to do basically the same thing. It's effectively impossible for separate social circles to all agree on the same app, and the lack of interoperability means you're stuck. The preferred apps don't even align by the types of people that use it -- that is, I don't have a 'family' app, 'friends' app, and 'personal business' app because they all overlap.

McDonald's CEO sounds the alarm over crime in Chicago
Somewhat ironically, as a frontend dev, I've never met a UI designer that really convinced me they were in-tune with designing for the context. If Figma did a better job of enabling them to design as well as they possibly could for the web or android or whatever they were working on specifically, then that's what I'd get behind. For ne personally, there was always a limitation in how the tools let me design for the responsive web, as well as letting me apply graphic design principles in a way that actually worked for that context. The best I ever got from a designer, even if I could admit that they were much better than me in terms of design skills, it was always hard to tell what was the reason they wouldn't be able to provide a mobile-first design that made sense. It was always some ridiculous large screen layout that they expected me to rethink in order to map it to various sizes.
I guess, but in my experience that either means you have enough budget to experiment anyway or are locked down to the point that you won’t be able to do anything which could cost money.

What I wish they had was a cap: allow me to tell the accountants that I can guarantee that a developer’s training will not leave the free tier.
Android has a built-in FIDO2/webauthn authenticator these days (well, built-in to Chrome, and by Android I mean Pixel phones). I'm sure Apple will build something similar as they have the hardware for it.

ran out of Latin terms? I didn’t start the overt generalization in the conversation to be exact.
Seems pretty clear cut for me:

const value = input.value ? input.valueAsNumber : 0;

Or if you want to be super defensive:

const value = Number.isNaN(input.valueAsNumber) ? 0 : input.valueAsNumber;

The nice thing is that constraint validation will not validate empty inputs unless you put the required attribute on the input.

However if it were me, I would default the input field to 0 (as in <input type=number value=0>) so that most users wouldn’t be confused by an unexpected default behavior.
That effort and debate of repatriation of the Elgin Marbles has been going on for centuries and I think it's debatable if Greece (or the Ottomon Empire) is even part of the western nations. So, kindly, I disagree that there is any urgency or that repatriation of that artefact is even strictly non political. However, there is a movement to repatriate items taken from non-western nations during colonial times which many museums are dealing with presently[1] although this article is specific to the British Museum. The Louvre deals with similar requests, which is where the art looted by Napoleon sits. I don't think I have ever seen a call in headlines to return works to churches or other European countries. There isn't any urgency to do that. So I believe the reason for this imbalance is just that it's political and not really about the items themselves.
