Yeah, those were the days. Learn to read input from the keyboard, display characters to the screen, and to read and save files and then you could do almost anything that any professional software did.

To add to that, you could learn to read/write a serial port and poll a mouse to find out where the pointer was and whether a button had been clicked, and that was cutting edge. At that point you were doing things that much commercial software didn't even do yet.

Just a few simple I/O things. All the rest was whatever logic you coded up.

You ran it and it either worked or didn't, and if it didn't you knew that was a bug in your code. Code that you knew because you'd written it.

No stack of components, no frameworks and libraries and dependency manager configurations and VMs and container configurations and network connections and other programs that might interact with it. It was just you and your code.

And sure, the IDEs today are technically better. But so much more complex that you could spend a lifetime studying them and still not understand all their functions. Turbo Pascal's IDE, though much simpler, well, was much simpler. You could easily grok it entirely within a week's normal usage.

So without all the cognitive overhead of a modern code ecosystem, you could just focus fully on solving the problem, doing the logic, figuring out the best way to do it.

Nowadays you spend most of your time figuring out all the tools and dependencies and configurations and systems and how to glue them all together and get them actually working together properly. There's relatively little time left for the actual problem you're trying to solve and the actual code that you're writing. Actually doing the thing that achieves the objective is kind of just an afterthought done in your spare time when you're not busy babysitting the ecosystem.
Won't this break Honey's extension business model where they inject Referer to steal referral $?
Nope, no they don't. You can rent a vehicle or use public transport for the 1 day special trip.

I did this calculation when I switched from ICE to a cheap EV. With just the money I save a gas+maintenance yearly our family can _fly_ to our yearly vacation spot (~1200km away) and rent the biggest fanciest Mercedes for the week. And we'll still have money left over.

Or we could load our EV on a night train, wake up at the destination and drive around all week.

Or we could rent an ICE car for the week.

There was zero point in spending ~20k€ more for the car just to match that once a year event.
"Integration" is a buzzword but probably for good reason. It's not healthy to compartmentalize your own mind, because those compartments eventually express themselves in often dysfunctional ways if you're not fully tapped in to them. Meditation can help with "integration" as well although I'm sure every drug and method has different efficacy. I see this as a stepping stone to better mental health, because sometimes crazy stuff gets churned up and your next step is to process it in a healthy way, hopefully working with a decent CBT professional.

I feel this is similar to Firesheep[1], a browser extension from a decade ago that put cookie session hijacking into the hands of everyday users and became wildly popular until its removal. Pre-Snowden it pushed various major sites to implement HTTPS encryption, including Facebook[2].

Granted there the solution was a rather simple one but I feel it's at least worthwhile for more to be conscientious of singular identities online and what info is disclosed publicly with them.

How do you refuel ICEs in harsh environments? Someone has to drive the huge tanker full of fuel over there a bunch of times a week, right? What if there's a some kind of weather event and the roads are unavailable for two weeks, how does the Land Cruiser get refueled then?

With EVs people in remote locations can have local infrastructure to generate what they need locally.
I have recently moved from Gmail. So far, so good. A little more spam coming through compared to Gmail. Pricing is fantastic for small users. IP is not on any blacklists. Delivery looks good even considering all methods the likes of Google deploy today such as various inboxes, etc. Roundcube is not something that I like. There is a bus risk, obviously. :)
I wonder if various proxy software (haproxy?) would be able to benefit from these new uring features.
The interplay between adolescents’ Internet addiction and family-related factors
Not that many since they only last 10 to 15 minutes so you can just set the TTL to that. Also, you only need to retain the “jti” of the token and not the entire token. So you can hold quite a lot of these jti of tokens even in memory which is what we do. And then after 15 minutes they are ejected from memory.
You don't need any API keys or any payments or anything. Just get a "shapefile" or geojson of world countries, like this one: https://datahub.io/core/geo-countries

These are vector formats very similar to SVG except with an understanding of geo coordinate systems and projections.

Then use openlayers or leaflet to render it in whatever projection you want, using wgs84 as your coordinate reference system.

The earth isn't a perfect sphere so you can't just draw a floating grid around a ball and call it a day. The transformation math is complicated. You can look at the mapping engines source code if you want, or just use them.

To add blue dot GPS positioning, you'll have to use Javascript to request the browser location or ip geolocation to guess it. Once you get that you can tell the openlayers to zoom to it and draw a dot and tell you which country it's in using by looking at how it intersects the country polygons.

All of that is totally free with no API keys or payments. You can self host all of it with no third party connections.
> Three distinct clusters were identified. Cluster 1 (assertive interaction) involved non-addicted authoritative parents with adolescents at risk of addiction. These parents had occasional arguments with their adolescents. Cluster 2 (aggressive interaction) included at-risk authoritarian parents with Internet addicted adolescents. These parents often had arguments with their adolescents. Cluster 3 (lenient interaction) comprised non-addicted permissive parents with highly addicted adolescents. These parents constantly argue with their adolescents. As we have not identified a cluster where adolescents’ addiction was below minimal risk, we advocate the need to train parents along with adolescents on healthy technology use
I drive a Tata Nexon EV 30kwh battery, 3.5 KW charger which I bought for Rs 1.6 million (16 lakh). The new ones with 40kwh battery, 7 KW charger costs Rs 1.9 million (19 lakh). On road is lesser due to subsidies (not sure if there are any active subsidies).

Tata Tiago is priced much lesser. I would be vary of range as advertised (unlike many other countries). My car gives me practical range of 220 kms and the advertised range is 312 kms. I drive at 115 to 125 WH per km, my wife drives at 135 to 150 WH per km.

The telling fact is that oil companies refuse to start new oil fields even when they have the permissions.

Opening up a new field costs mucho $$ and it takes a while to pay it back before it'll start making a profit. And it seems that their analysis shows that 25+ years in the future they're not making as much as they are today so there's no point in spending money up front.

It's easier just to sell their existing inventory at insane prices.
So why don't we fork the chromium upstream code and only merge security patches? Imagine, all the web extension maintainers just started maintaining for the forked browser because it's the only one they can continue to support. This would surely destroy the chrome monopoly.

You mention the phrase "stepping on people". What exactly do you mean by that - both in general, and in the specific case you've mentioned?

Do you mean that people don't like his words, and he's figuratively "stepping on them" by expressing his thoughts? Because it seems to me that the only argument against him is that "some people don't like his words". If there is anything more to it, I'd really like to know.

Apartment living + EV is not a technical problem, it's 100% a political/social one.
Ah yes, whenever the topic that EVS won't be the absolute future comes up.

People get ultra religious and evangelical about it. At this point, it should just be a new religion. That is to say, most of the debates aren't founded on logic, but rather hope and belief.

Until it's possible to buy a second hand ev as someone's new car for less than a grand (AUD so $600 USD). EVS won't be the future. $20k for a car is fucking expensive, the "mass market" model 3 in Australia is $60-80k. That's a luxury car price, closer to the top end.

JWTs survive in popularity because, by and large, their size is negligible over the wire, internet speeds get faster (not slower), and key agreement across systems is still a surprisingly complex problem.

(1) Size
Factoring Gzip and HTTP/2 header compression into this, size is no longer an issue, but it's still a reasonably good idea to keep claim sizes down. If you don't like using cookies, use a sessionStorage value and affix via XHR! Easy

(2) You're Going to Hit The Database Anyway
No you aren't, necessarily? Wth. Also, JWKS paired with JWT gives fantastic rotation security with very minimal configuration across systems. So, maybe you don't even have the database accessible to you. You can still verify your signatures.

(3) Redundant Signing
Sounds like this is advice for some framework that signs the session cookie? This is silly.

I think the main difficulty is that programming that actually gets things done, these days requires a lot of collaboration and thus, soft skills. Because you can't get much done by yourself anymore. And soft skills is a thing nerds naturally suck at, which makes personal qualities demanded from a good programmer sort of self-contradicting.
You do know that handling enter by submitting the form is the default behavior if you do absolutely nothing? You actually have to go out of your way to override that and suppress it.

Sometimes it makes sense to do something else instead, but if so, you should handle it in a sane way and actually do that something else. Not just suppress it.
I’m not sure if anyone read the article but it is incredibly level headed and actually states that Toyota is going to launch 15 full electric vehicles by 2025. I actually owned an electric car and it was amazing and I loved it but I definitely agree with the direction Toyota is going and they have developed some amazing tech with their hybrid systems that I don’t see any reason why they would throw out the window.
Only if you assume that there are no alternatives to your personal car that can take care of that usecase. For example, I don't own a car despite needing to move heavy objects once or twice a year. I simply rent something, or ask a friend. That's much cheaper than owning something that I only need rarely.

This is interesting news about the iranian drones I haven't read anywhere. Indian and Chinese media is widely available on the web, surprising this hasn't come up. Can you provide a link to some stories? My own web search found this in Politico.

There will be a huge 3rd party industry replacing and upgrading batteries for EVs.

It doesn't exist yet beyond some small enterprises because there isn't enough volume: even 10+ year old EVs are still going strong with very few battery issues. We need to wait longer to get any business going.

There was a dude in Finland who replaced and upgraded Nissan Leaf batteries, he had to stop because it was a) impossible to get new batteries due to huge demand b) ran out of customers.
Many of the technical problems have been solved by frameworks: persistence, transactions, concurrency, etc.

The business processes covered by systems have grown much more complexer. The organizations have grown larger because software is doing more (more safely and easily).

The modern programmer faces thus larger organizations, larger/more-sided discussions and far a complexer social, political and business-related landscape than 20 years ago.

While the technical problems have gotten much easier, in general.

Strategic domain modeling (DDD) is a method to avoid much of the trouble before coding starts and steer timely on an ongoing basis as knowledge of the domain matures. Not suitable for all types of systems, of course, but is anyone using this methodically?

If faster than light travel was possible any single species who discovered it would be able to cover an appreciable portion of the galaxy in only a few thousand years out of billions.

Either life is virtually non-existent thus far, virtually always suicidal, or discovering it is tremendously unlikely.

Neither of the last two bode well for us. It seems to me most likely that ftl suggestions an empty universe or one in which we too are likely to die without learning it.

> the cure for discrimination is at the very minimum adequate public funding for primary and secondary education _everywhere_ (with adequate student to teacher ratios

You know that when you're describing a policy with vague words like "adequate" you are actually giving yourself an escape hatch in case the policy fails?

"The policy was great, it's just that funding wasn't adequate".

Which makes your policy unfalsifiable and almost religious in nature.
Because the same laws that protect the artist with copyright also protects the code that I write as a hobby or release under an open source library to ensure that improvements to my code come back to the library.

Without copyright, GPL and its deracinates have no leg to stand on to prevent it from being incorporated into closed source programs and forever locked away. Sure, you'll be able to copy the application without copyright protecting it, but you'd be unable to modify it. It would be the success of the free part at the cost of the libre values.

I think you underestimate how much work maintaining that would be. Also, who's "we"? Are you going to do it?
I think that's a bit overblown, but even in that case I think it's a better deal than playing the odds on an ICE car, that the engine was maintained well by previous owners, that the transmission isn't packed full of sawdust to mask its issues until you're down the road.
Sometimes these slightly-NSFW ads are what you get when you're heavy on ad blockers and such, because they're buying out the lowest/cheapest ad tiers where there isn't much targeting data available.
Batteries last a long time too. The Leaf is a bad example because they messed up the battery management somehow, but there are Teslas on the road with lots of miles and very little battery degradation.
BTW z/OS has Unix subsystem, which enables it to run practically any modern Unix software, including all modern script languages, etc. which are actively used. So there's no urgent motivation to change the platform for those who're invested in it but want to also use more recent software. I think there's no reason why it couldn't live to be 100 years old - maybe not the most popular software by then, but still alive for those who need it.
It might have been this[0] Swedish article that got me looking in to this some years back.

It’s clear to me that the science is inconclusive regarding benefits, at best.

We’ve evolved by eating and having complex processes take place inside our bodies to break down the food.

My personal take is that these processes in them selves can be important, and bypassing them doesn’t necessarily have positive outcomes.

I have driven similar amounts and I've had to replace:

- Turbo (~1k€)
- Radiator (300€)
- Clutch
- Dual-mass flywheel (1.5k€ combined with the clutch)
- DPF (would've cost upwards of 2k€, bypassed it for 500€)

And a ton of other tiny sub-500€ fixes I didn't bother keeping track of.

Dunno if you always drove brand-new cars or were really lucky.

For my current EV (2,5 years of ownership) I've had to replace the cabin filter twice and I've filled the washer fluid a half dozen times. That's it.
... and I get hung up on page 2:-

nim c -r --verbosity:0 helloworld.nim

c is short for compile, and -r is short for run. Why? Why not:-

nim cr --verbosity:0 helloworld.nim

or even just:-

nim helloworld.nim

with "r" and verbosity zero being the defaults, and the compiler figuring out that it neeeds to compile first?

These inconsistencies and bits of unnecessary mental freight annoy me.

Does the NT kernel get the same accommodation, where we admit that despite its shortcomings, it's a marvel of software engineering?
Yeah, don't do that unless you have good reason to do so.

Browsers have a standard, default, expected behavior. Sometimes, in rare cases, it makes sense to break that in order to do something else instead. But you shouldn't just silently break it for no reason other than to confuse the user.

I could drive to my alma mater, power a TV off the car all day, and drive home without expending even 15% of my car's battery. Its less of a drive than my wife's commute to work every day, and that's not very far at all. I acknowledge that's probably not even 30% of that crowd, but clearly that'll be some percentage of that 100k.

100k people drive in. All individually in personal vehicles? Most commuting 4 hours away? No.

Even if the average occupancy gets to 2, you've massively reduced the energy needs.

I really doubt the failures of electric vehicles are because of college football. If that's truly the case I feel really bad about the future of the human race.
