Given that network wide adblock/tracker blocking saves upwards of 60% of bandwidth (for web traffic) on the average network, its pretty obvious where the problem is.

>A second grant—the DARPA-NSF grant most closely associated with Google’s origin—was part of a coordinated effort to build a massive digital library using the internet as its backbone. Both grants funded research by two graduate students who were making rapid advances in web-page ranking, as well as tracking (and making sense of) user queries: future Google cofounders Sergey Brin and Larry Page.

>The research by Brin and Page under these grants became the heart of Google: people using search functions to find precisely what they wanted inside a very large data set.
Except that people on this very sight are fighting very very hard to ban scraping from sites like Internet Archive and keep propping up IP laws that make such libraries illegal.
Nonetheless, having a set of reality-according convictions that can be (and which are) practically applied appears by far to be a dominant factor, especially when you consider how many of the alternative explanations (eg. endocrine disorders) are heavily influenced by lifestyle choices (which in turn are caused by views about nutrition or exercise that either don't accord with reality or are being incorrectly applied).
UK mini-Budget latest: Kwarteng scraps 45% top rate of income tax
Sure. This was an older person, educated in the 50s, and subjected to all the “old wives tales”, scientific pronouncements and popular dietary fads of the 70s and beyond.

The ones that stuck hardest were, on one hand, fears of cholesterol and sodium; on the other hand, the twisted embrace of both fruit and “sugar-free”; and on the gripping hand, the mortal fear of being fat / the holy grail of being thin.

This led to “healthy” meals of barely seasoned steamed chicken breast and broccoli, with fat/sugar-free oatmeal cookies and a bowl of fruit for dessert. Which led to fairly obvious malnutrition, wasting away, lack of resilience, etc.

We’d go out for Mexican or Vietnamese dinners sometimes, and it was fascinating to watch this picky eater ravage a big plate of cochinita pibil or gà nướng.

I doubt a small wireless device is even the easiest way to cheat. Very little information needs to be transmitted: 2-3 bits at the right time could give a player a huge advantage.

To me it seems easier to use a stooge in the audience. Information could be transmitted as coughs of varying volume, pitch, length, rubbing your eyes/nose, or any number of even more discreet ways.

To completely remove suspicion, you’d need to start playing games in a faraday cage in a soundproof room with no spectators.

Industry is shutting down all over Europe [1] but no-one yet talks about a "poly-crisis" around these parts, it's like we're sleepwalkers, all it's fine as longs as we don't actively talk about it. And who-ever protests the causes behind it is labeled as a left-winger or right-winger (or both at the same time), and called an ally of Putin.

I had expected Tooze to also write about it, after all the book that made him famous, The Wages of Destruction [2] (which I heartily recommend, I've just finished reading it), touched heavily on the Nazis' quest for energy resources. This time around Europe decided to cut itself off from said energy resources out of its own volition, never read of anything like that happening before in the context of a war.

Back in the days when I was a kid tower PCs were comparably rare and most of the PCs used the horizontal desktop design which essentially is the same like a tower but put on its side. People would often put the monitor on top of it to save the desk space (see the Windows 95-2000 "my computer" icon). Isn't it time for that to return so we wouldn't need “GPU Support Sticks”?

By the way, what actually dissatisfies me is the majority of mainboards having too few PCIex slots. Whenever I buy a PC I want a great extensible future-proof mainboard + very basic everything incl. a cheap graphics card so I can upgrade different parts the moments I feel like . Unfortunately such many-slot maininboards seem to all target the luxury gamer/miner segment and be many times more expensive than ordinary ones. I don't understand why some extra slots have to raise the cost up 10 times.
Well then that's your responsibility, as a COVID "skeptic", to make the distinction clear -- especially if you invoke phrases such as "the Cathedral" as a big nebulous conspiracy. People who think the vaccine gives you autism also consider themselves COVID (vaccine) skeptics.

Factually accurate is the lowest bar to clear.
Have you never used Visual Studio or VS Code? Would you consider C#/.NET or TypeScript to be products?
Having worked with various developer-centric tools across Windows, MacOS and Linux for the last 20 odd years, if I ever felt MS consistently dumped sub-par products on its userbase I'd happily walk away and use alternatives. Teams is one of the few of their products I regularly resent being forced to work with, and would never recommend it if I were in the position to (and yes, Skype for Business would be next on the list).
I maintain that "booting a Mac, loading Chrome, loading Google Docs, and getting ready to type", takes as long as "booting DOS, starting Windows 3.1, loading Word for Windows 2.0", takes as long as "loading GEOS from floppy disk on a C64, loading geoWrite", and so on, and so forth.
Sure, but you are comparing meta programming facility to a type/lifetime feature that serves as Higher Kinded Type replacement.

In Rust same thing holds, macros are easier than GAT

I don't get why PhantomData or Pin are that hard to grasp?

PhantomData is just a type marker that has no purpose other than help compiler. See https://doc.rust-lang.org/nomicon/phantom-data.html

Pin is a way to create self referential structs, by pinning memory and preventing moves.

PhantomPinned is a marker type to ensure your type is not Unpin (it is by default). Unpin it thing that shouldn't be pinned, like bool, i32, etc.

> and then there is bloat, the scourge of JavaScript frameworks and what passes for front-end development nowadays.

It keeps getting worse.

When I do web app security assessments, I end up with a logfile of all requests/responses made during browsing a site.

The sizes of these logfiles have ballooned over the past few years, even controlling for site complexity.

Many megabytes of JS shit, images, etc being loaded and often without being cached properly (so they get reloaded every time).

A lot of it is first party framework bloat (webdev active choices), but a lot is third party bloat - all the adtech and other garbage that gets loaded every time (also without cacheing) for analytics and tracking.
That TV station definitely needs more animated text flying about. I could almost see what was happening on-screen at one point.
I've seen people picking up C++ from scratch recently and rest assured, that's not so obvious for a novice like it is for a person that's been using it for decades. I think the level of complexity is similar, but at least Rust features feel like they were designed on purpose.

C++ metaprogramming, to be fair, is a happy little accident that turned out being a blessing, more than something that was well designed from the start...
It is possible to use calDAV, cardDAV etc to sync tasks, contacts and calenders independent of the client you use. I have been doing this exercise the past few days with one guy who does everything in the CLI (mutt, todoman etc) while I have been using Thunderbird. It kinda works, but you have to forgo some features that are not supported by booth clients to make it work.

It's rather basic feature set; no sub-task support for example. But I do not know of any other way to sync tasks and calenders across a team where preferences for different clients and tools vary.
I’m intrigued by the recycling process of lithium. You need to take batteries to special drop off locations to have them recycled, no? I wonder if there will be a financial incentive that coexists with device design policies to make this process easier to execute for the lazy consumer. Would be nice if my phone battery had a built-in $20.00 deposit (this is my opinion of course).
In the repository there’s a link or a `wget` statement that you can execute to download the 10M dataset.
Parody is a well known copyright exemption.

Yep, very much this. I code async CLI apps and I seriously don't care that the CLI args and the data structures they get transformed to are cloned 250 times at startup because after that 99% of the actual heavy-duty code is working with channels and references with nearly zero memory pressure. Memory usage gets bumped up by about 2% after the first 1-2 minutes of operation and it stays constant for next 11 hours during which I've monitored it.

I don't even need to benchmark anything. The apps are working ultra fast on a Celeron J450 CPU at ~20MB RAM usage and barely hit 10% CPU (since they're mostly network-bound).

No need for premature optimization. I haven't dived in the lifetime hell of Rust yet but I'm already quite productive and I will only be using zero-allocation techniques if my current code proves inadequate the the ever-increasing demand that these apps will soon face.

"Outside of a few fringe groups, most people agreed on what we knew". It’s not my opinion, we "know" very little.

> Pin is a way to create self referential structs, by pinning memory and preventing moves.

This, exactly. Pin works more or less like a C++ class with a deleted move constructor. Copies may be allowed if clone/copy (aka, the implicit/explicit copy constructor) are defined, but move and RVO are not.

Lots of Rust's concepts can often be described in terms of C++'s techniques, but more often than not in C++ it tends to be a hack, while Rust has a formalism for that, like Pin for instance. In C++ you can have moveable self-referencing structs because you can update the self references in the move constructor, but moves in Rust are always memcpy - which is saner IMHO than the whole move constractor and rvalue shenanigans.
Anyone else around for the dot com bubble? Why does the current tech M&A scene feel so eerily similar?

I recognize that inflation is quickly destroying the value of the dollar, but $20 billion is still a mind numbingly large amount of money to be throwing around at the clear end of a long term tech sector growth cycle.

This speaks as a brutal admission from Adobe corporate leadership that they lack the internal entrepreneurial skills to drive the development of new and innovative products in their market space, and based on the ~10% stock price drop since the announcement I imagine the market sees it the same way.

Not even close to AppSmith:

If this was open source & self host able then maybe but as it stands, there's no point. AppSmith has been the only low-code tool that allowed me to build exactly what I wanted thanks to their JS support. Budibase etc all lack that and fail miserably outside of a few standard cases.
> Low acidic diet (alkaline) helps you more with getting calcium in your tissues

No, this is not a thing, please don't spread misinformation.
No, he's actually right. When you are in a situation that requires action the last thing you want is for everyone to stop, have a cigarette and debate the issue while nothing gets done. You can't wait around for a consensus to form - you will have to risk being wrong. Because you will be wrong much of the time regardless of what you do. And you will be criticized later. By people who themselves contributed nothing and know nothing because they weren't where the decisions had to be made.

Fear, confusion, inaction and people taking advantage of the situation for political purposes are dangerous when faced with an immediate threat. Why do you think these elements are have been part of how people have waged war for thousands of years? These factors make populations incapable of coordinated response.

Your mistake is to think that responding to a time-critical threat is scientific debate. It isn't and it is really dangerous when people with the power to influence others don't actually know the difference.

It's really the curation that needs to be taught to everyone. A big dose of critical thinking skills is what we all need, because in earlier times you could tell the crappy ideas by the way they were packaged: crazy guy at Hyde Park Corner, dude with a megaphone shouting out passages of the bible, crappy home-made flyers. You could work backwards from "nutter is probably wrong" to why he was wrong. Part of why this worked was because it cost something to publish stuff, and so publishers would have a think about what they wanted to spend their resources on.

Nowadays everyone has figured out how to package the message, and it's super cheap to do so and get it out there. (Incidentally, actual packaging is the same now, crappy products used to come in crappy packages, but no more.)

So now to pick apart an argument you have to be a bit more aware of the actual content, and it's a bit harder to get to the bottom of BS.
Go re-watch "Office Space" from the 1990s, in particular the scene where the main character is trying to save his work and shut down before the boss comes by and asks him to work over the weekend.

25 years later, progress bars are no better: they steadily go to 15%, then stop there for a while, suddenly zoom to 80%, then slowly progress to 99%, then stop there for a long time.
The obvious assumption in an all-ev-future is that the grid is carbon neutral.
Well, we have a like + collection system at krea.ai.

Weimar Germany went down pretty fast, actually. Hitler became Chancellor on January 30, 1933. Reichstag Fire Decree was issued on February 28. The first concentration camp - Dachau - was opened for business on March 22, specifically for political prisoners.

> Using the same argument, it could be said that cash should be banned because its private & semi-anonymous nature allows for its use in transactions for gambling, drug use, child porngraphy, assasinations, & slave trafficking.

If we somehow magically had come up with a cashless system first, and cash instead was introduced now, I am quite sure that yes there would be calls to ban it for those reasons. It is however an ancient legacy system that's deeply entrenched in our societies, so we're living with it for now, although perhaps not forever.
