Similar story in Bulgaria. The country had a strong industrial and mechanised agricultural base, with an educated workforce to match. Every small village was electrified and had at least one nearby factory of a small scale. They also had kindergartens, schools, libraries, football stadiums and a small railway station nearby. The planning was far from perfect - factories were built far from the available resources, there were shortages and excesses in the whole chain, but at least the communist leaders recognised the need for modernisation of the society and the economy.

Fast forward to today, where we have an economic centralisation and pollution around 3 or 4 major cities. The economic profile is mainly made up of exports of raw goods and services for local use with a low added value. There is a disconnect between the educational system and the economy, the culture (music, theater) has steadily declined.
It reminds me of a what a friend of mine said who priced Mortgage Backed Securities before the financial crisis "Oh, we never modeled different mortgage default rates - those were fixed assumptions. The really complicated math was driven by interest rates."

He did leave me with the impression that tnterest rate modeling was technically challenging and had lots of scope for sophisticated work - so that's where the effort went.

You mean the co-routines that Modula-2 already had in 1978, or Erlang in 1986, not such big achievement on Go's part.

They are changing their natural listing results to be multi media photos and video content will be prioritised on search results, it is going to be released in America first this month I believe

They are also seeing the results will be far more varied and scrolling down will likely give you a result that you are looking for, and the traditional way of looking with the top result, being the one that you wanted may not be the case anymore

I think they are maybe trying to replicate the TikTok experience when looking for a result, you will end up scrolling different content relative to your search keyword

All of this will benefit content creators. If you have an ability to create video content, this will give you a competitive edge.
So you're entitled to speak for "everyone" ?

Sorry to have confronted your bigoted certainties.
First of all, high income does not mean 'rich'. 45% tax bracket started at £150'000 income - that is not 'rich' in London.

Secondly, all else being equal, lower taxes certainly would attract talent and business to the UK and overall make people better off. As a simple example, let us consider an extreme case where the UK has a 20% flat tax while maintaining macro/political stability, and that rate is expected to persist. For starters, there will be a huge move in tech from SF and NY to the UK. It will become a very desirable destination for top talent; startups and unicorns will follow. With clever tax incentives, it would not be just London either, but cities all around the country. That influx of talent and capital would benefit the middle class and the poor too. The one bottleneck, as is usually the case, would be housing - if that is also resolved (say, making it really easy to build in/near currently depressing-looking cities), there could be a real boom to the UK economy.

As things are going now, this is unlikely to play out in the UK, unfortunately.

IT industry is 6.2% of the Romanian GDP.

Romania's GDP in 2019 was about 5x that of 1989.

The privatization of the inefficient communist industry was indeed a joke. But the free markets and the switch to capitalism allowed a mixture of home-grown entrepreneurial industry and foreign corporations and investments to more than replace and overtake the centrally-planned dying communist-era dinosaurs.

Thanks everyone for the answers. I researched this a little more and can summarize it as:

- DOM is a language agnostic representation that models an XML/HTML document as an object (abstract) tree, though as I said above the tree part is not mandated by the specs.

- The actual implementation can choose to expose extra data and methods for interacting with such objects. In the case of most browsers it's implemented as a Javascript document object (an actual Javascript object) "sitting" inside another Javascript object called window which exposes other properties and methods for interaction purposes.

Google on Android has already been stupid for a long time. You can swipe right from the home screen of a Pixel phone to get to Google search, which is a Yahoo!-style portal with news, etc under the search bar. And then you click on the search input field, and you get suggestions based on trending searches (a week or 2 ago one of them was something about King Charles). Luckily both idiocies can still be disabled, and I use DDG for my searches anyway.
I gave up after a paragraph or two. It looked like it was going to moan about people trying to have fun and do some self care. I don’t have time for that.

Over time, I’ve come to see many “senior” or “success” behaviours as refined versions of childhood ones. Political sniping, business competitiveness, standard hierarchical power dynamics, etc. These are all “playground tactics” but grown up. I don’t see (many) “successful” or “leader” type people publicly engaging in so called “adult behaviours” - supporting, sharing, collaborating, taking time out to understand one another’s needs, looking for win-wins.

Of course, many adults do all these things. However, the higher up the power/success ladder you look, the harder these behaviours are to see. In a lot of situations, many people feel they need to win, or at best draw. Few enjoy losing, and the more they have riding on it (money, reputation, power), the more most people will aim to win. At the level of nations (or gangs), this gets deadly. The ways to win are just the same ways kids explore. The people most likely to win are the ones who lean hardest into those tactics.

So, I’m saying “we’re all children”. If you want to complain about adults playing games and wearing bright colours, you also need to complain about adults using armies to take resources and businesses blocking others out of markets.

It comes down to difficulties of getting a team together that can implement cross-platform software. Shipping native implementations is more than quadruple the work and cost as compared to shipping with Electron, which is reliably cross-platform and doesn't need you to gather programmers who can pull off native work, not to mention the complications in communication and management that arise after headcount of a group gets larger. There are now alternatives to Electron (Tauri/Rust and Wails/Go) and some Electron projects are starting to transfer over (like 1Password -- you can really feel difference) but it'll take time for the ecosystem to mature and become more attractive than Electron for the average project.

But right now, Electron remains a solid choice if you want to ship cross-platform desktop software without overextending on budget and time. Moreover, it's possible to make Electron apps that aren't terrible if they're optimized enough (Discord, VSCode, etc.).

PDF software is a different ball game as PDF is a behemoth of a specification. Did you know you could envelope 3d models within PDF files? Obviously a stripped down implementation (which you should use, if you don't require the fancier parts of PDF) will be snappier.
Billionaires care deeply about money. For the most part it’s accurate to say it’s the only thing they care about, but it’s certainly the thing they care about most.

If you care more about anything more than money you have so many opportunities to express that preference long before you get to a billion dollars that the existence of the billion dollars pretty much proves that there’s nothing above money on the list.

Exactly. The IRR in investing more into ad platforms for Google is still higher than any other project so they keep investing in it and increasing their ad revenue. Alongside Meta, they have a duopoly (monopoly?) on that market for now so they are just milking it for all its worth.

You don't just build stuff for the sake of it. It has to be a better investment than what you currently have, and Google doesn't have anything better than doubling and tripling down on ads.

No it wasn't, it had the MCA architecture for the motherboards, which was out of reach to the clone makers.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micro_Channel_architecture

> It was thought that by creating a new standard, IBM would regain control of standards via the required licensing. As patents can take three years or more to be granted, however, only those relating to ISA could be licensed when Micro Channel was announced. Patents on important Micro Channel features, such as Plug and Play automatic configuration, were not granted to IBM until after PCI had replaced Micro Channel in the marketplace. The overall reception was tepid and the impact of Micro Channel in the worldwide PC market was minor.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_PS/2

> The PS/2 line was created by IBM partly in an attempt to recapture control of the PC market by introducing the advanced yet proprietary Micro Channel architecture (MCA) on higher-end models. These models were in the strange position of being incompatible with the IBM-compatible hardware standards previously established by IBM and adopted in the PC industry. However, IBM's initial PS/2 computers were popular with target market corporate buyers, and by September 1988 IBM reported that it had sold 3 million PS/2 machines. This was only 18 months after the new range had been introduced.

This is not hard.

This particular app is slow because nobody cared. Not many people record voice on PCs anymore, and the ones they do, they use professional software. People just use phones for simple tasks.

Over time, someone had the idea to add search for files, they implemented the shortest hack that worked, and they left it in, because nobody prioritized this app.

Notes recording on phone is snappy and working, because people record on phones.

Read the texts released in the court documents. There was no "master plan" to "rework Twitter". Elon was angry that he was going to get denied the board seat, so he went from zero-to-I'll just buy Twitter in, literally, less than an hour (according to the timestamps).

Taking a quick look at a random tweet through the network tab, about 2/3rds of the time spent is on downloading files. Now should Twitter preload a bunch of videos from recommended tweets it shows below the tweet? Probably not. Does Twitter need megabytes of JavaScript just to show a tweet? I'd hope not. Those things do appear to be the main bottleneck however.

Ask HN: Reliable ways to remove Monterey's orange recording indicator dot?
Several months on from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29627382 I still don't have a good way to remove the orange recording indicator dot that Apple – totally ignoring the needs of those who do screen recording – stupidly added in Monterey. Honestly, I wish I had never upgraded.

I record from my second screen, which is I think why UnDot doesn't work for me. Recording Indicator Utility wants me to disable SIP, and I'm reluctant to do that.

Several months later, are there better options? If it helps, I record with ScreenFlow and external (USB) mic and camera.

I don't have strong evidence for this, but I always feel like this is true until you get right to the very top - the individuals and organisations that are considered leaders in their fields. The difference between those people/organisations and the rest is often exactly that they are supportive, collaborative and doing things for the right reasons relative to the big picture rather than their local political context.

It's harder to succeed if you don't engage with the "playground tactics", but those who do are the ones pushing society forwards.
