We already know how to solve for this, via land value taxes. No need to remove private ownership to fix that.
I think this comment went off the rails a bit, but the framework people you are describing do exist. I don't think it's a majority, but I've encountered them.

A case was Celery, where despite countless other options for async tasks - we must use Celery because that's what the framework says. It was a bad fit as well.

I do stress that I do not lump all framework proponents in this bucket though - that seems like an overgeneralization.
I’d start with the plugins. It allows for easy integration into my current workflow.
So what is difference to vscode here? I can see a cool graph view of my links. I guess the target is not directly developers when looking at their paid sync addon, because I would simply put this into a free closed gitlab repo. I will definitely try out the free version this week :)

Edit: Found md-graph that also has the same neat graph: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ianjsike...
70% cut is surprising, I thought it's 50% like Twitch. Indeed, Googling "tiktok streaming gift cut" still tells me TikTok takes 50% commission on multiple sites. I wonder if there are withheld taxes or something.
I have a fascination with retro computing and enjoy collecting vintage computers whenever the opportunity presents itself.

Best one was at a yard sale when I did my usual “do you have any old computers?” spiel to the owner and a older woman overheard me. Turns out she had a boxed TRS-80 and TI-99/4A - quite the haul that day! Her brother also gave me a VIC-20, which I had to force him to take $20 for.
Love obsidian, thank you for building!

My only dream is blocked by Apple. Would to have the ability to switch the default notes client in iOS, similar to how you can with browsers and email.
It's basically a wiki but running locally that you can sync with a remote, and based around normal (well, almost "normal") markdown files.
These companies don't care about banning people because it's more profitable not to - unless you upset someone about a trendy topic like gender.

This week I reported someone on Twitter for telling me to kill myself ("Kill yourself" was their exact words). Twitter said they found this "Doesn't violate our rules".

Part of the problem is that TikTok appears to have relied far too heavily on automation for moderation. I was suspended for saying "America is worse" and also for saying "God isn't real". Many girls have been banned for showing their shoulders. But I guess those users aren't bringing in money like the ones taking donations.
Wouldn't it have the same problem as dating sites of being male-dominated, except x100?
I'm coming in very late to this conversation, but there may be some ambiguity here. Americans will often use the word "Brahmin" to generally refer to an upper class. For instance, the "Boston Brahmins" is a phrase used to refer to old money WASP families https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boston_Brahmin. So this might not have been in tended specifically as a reference to upper class Indians (it wasn't entirely clear to me from the post).
How is the second amendment ambiguous? It’s one of the more clear written rights we have.
Sounds right. I was just clarifying what the article said. Title was a tad misleading.
its not just you, I think they could have written an about page that explains what it is more clearly. Seems neat though, maybe could replace my "stickies" app
Google doesn’t have to be the one to build the magic window. It could be one of us here.

Let’s discuss the merits of the idea, not Google’s reputation.

Then maybe go and copy it in an environment where it won’t get killed by a corporate overlord
My mother worked as an artisan in a theatre before retirement(I'm Polish BTW).

Just like public transport, opera and theatre can't possibly fund itself just from tickets - the price would need to be very high to do so.

At the same time donations from rich people are few, far between and wouldn't even cover 1% of the expenses - it's not the XX century anymore and even then I suppose instances of rich people funding entire such organisations were rare.

Most musicians (and I've met quite a few during my time in a choir), especially singers already have a day job.

In general it boils down to whether you believe a nation has culture worth preserving or should they all just shut up and produce GDP.
My thought about the parent was the same, that it was sort of a truism. So I was trying to probe for what conditions or parameters would make the statement more meaningful, basically some prinicpals to assess how much big brother is the right amount of big brother. We all agree oversight is good sometimes and to some extent. The question is what is that extent.
If you want modern regexp syntax then forget egrep/grep -E and use grep -P for Perl Compatible Regular Expressions. PCRE is the most commonly used regex syntax for modern programming languages, eg Python, Go (mostly) etc and grep -P will save lots of annoyance if you use one of these!
Looks nice and based on my initial quick tests seems rather lean, and yet it is cross platform. Can I ask what the tech stack looks like? development language(s)? Cross platform UI library?
So. Thought experiment.

Which has lower cognitive load if everyone starts doing it?

Explicitly specifying switches, or argv magic? I'd argue, the switches are. In the abscence of the symlinking, that is how the tool functionality would have to be driven anyway.

Argv magic now runs into a problem if another program sharing the name ever comes into existence on the path. It's also completely unergonomic in a sense, because short of looking at the source, you have no way of knowing what argv transforms implementations support are, and in order to use them, you must explicitly pollute the Symbol namespace with a denormalized util. Also, the argv magic does require one extra shell to do the transform from !grep to grep -!, Which is technically more overhead. On the other hand, fgrep and egrep are ironically easier to grep/sed for as opposed to grep/ -[F|E]

One tool, one manual, one name, one argv0.

I am not the Grand Poobah of the Internet, however, even if their hat is in my possession, so I understand that it is likely that the fgrep/egrep convention is probably deeply entrenched, and likely to spawn a new holy war on par with Emacs/Vim. Tabs/spaces, etc...
I’d consider that a donation to the grocery store and worthwhile. Those are some of the worst, lowest paying jobs. People treat retail workers horribly and grocery is where everybody goes. And grocery is known for awful margins.

Tiktok is just the long arm of the CCP.
We need congress to stop writing blank checks. There's almost so much rate hikes can do, but this affects more than just the USA: Rate hikes will kill third world and developing nation's economies. And no, the answer isnt "mor taxes!", because one, that literally has never worked (we've raised taxes thousands of times now), but we don't tell and alcoholic to drink more water to dilute the alcohol, we tell them to stop drinking. s/alcohol/spending/
I understand that. The point is just that a boss isn't infallible in evaluating the performance of their employees. I wasn't expecting that to be a controversial statement, but you seemed to be challenging it. As to whether or not the person who asked the question is right, it's obviously impossible for us to know.
Prusti: Static Analyzer for Rust
From what I understand:

Meta has Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and others.

When Meta tells law enforcement that user xxxBobTerrorist69xxx is a terrorist based on information they have from their apps, law enforcement listens. They can also ban that person from all of their platforms. These platforms are used by content creators for findability, just like any business.

If the only place you can advertise is your own platform, how are you going to draw people to your platform.

The plaintiffs are arguing that OnlyFans used connections to Meta executives to then have them use their position to lock creators on competing platforms out of important advertising platforms.

So far, it seems like Meta itself isn't the issue here, it's people who work for Meta. Which is a little hair-splitty considering some of the people involved. But if Rob Walton is caught snorting coke off of a hooker's ass, we don't say "WalMart" is doing it.
Don't know why you're being downvoted. This isn't a problem that raising interest rates can fix. Raising interest rates can't create supply on inelastic demand.
One thing future generations will laugh at is the idea that energy prices were so incredibly important yet so incredibly volatile. We go to great length to tell people not to rely on volatile financial instruments, yet a core part of their day-to-day life can vary so much. Apart from reducing pollution and ending climate change, getting rid of fossil fuels will also get rid of this volatility and all the discontent and issues it is causing.
It's a caching problem.

Congressional action is a major cause of this, spending trillions.
No it wasn't just you. The best I could understand was that it was a note-taking app that outputs in markup.
Another tool for doing this is https://github.com/mattdesl/canvas-sketch ... for example, check out https://github.com/mattdesl/canvas-sketch/blob/master/exampl... from its examples.

What you do is, run the script, and then hit Command-S (at least on a mac), and it'll save a screenshot and an SVG into your downloads folder. You can then send the SVG to your plotter however it is you do that.

It doesn't require p5.js, but does play nicely with it. And you can use it with Typescript, too—although that's still rough around the edges.
If I use obsidian to take personal work notes, do I need a commercial license? Right now I use a giant append-only markdown file but I'm curious about the linking.
Indoctrination isn’t people independently coming to their own options so the names are irrelevant. A 7-8 year old girl can feel equally strongly about red vs blue being a boys/girls color.

Culture is extremely adaptable with little boys being put into dresses less than a hundred years ago for practical reasons and pink being a manly color as a less overt reference to blood. That swap didn’t depend on some new name for dress and colors.
I moved from Google Docs to Obsidian in a process of de-Googling my life. With Obsidian, my notes are only stored on my machine and my storage syncing service. Files are just text, so my notes can outlive Obsidian itself.
If your preferred candidate does not win, your vote gets a second chance (or more!) to get counted.

But that's not always the case; this is exactly the point I'm trying to make. The whole problem is that your vote only gets a second chance to be counted if your preferred candidate gets eliminated. If your preferred candidate loses because somebody else wins before your preferred candidate gets eliminated, then none of your later rankings affect the outcome whatsoever. This is why you can't actually vote honestly in IRV if you want your vote to count.

Let me try to illustrate this with an example:

Let’s imagine the US switched to RCV before the 2020 election, and Mitt Romney decides to run as an independent. Now let’s look at, say, West Virgina, which is a pretty red state, and went about 70% Trump 30% Biden in the 2020 election in real life

WV Democrats are still going to vote for Biden, and they’d probably prefer Romney over Trump, so let’s say they all vote in that order, but imagine roughly a third of Republican voters in West Virgina like Romney better than Trump, so we end up with this:

45% vote Trump, Romney, Biden;
25% vote Romney, Trump, Biden;
30% vote Biden, Romney, Trump

Romney gets eliminated first, his voters fall back to Trump, and Trump wins. The Democrats all wanted Romney over Trump, but Biden was never eliminated, so their second choice of Romney had no bearing on the outcome. But, what if they’d strategically voted for the “lesser of two evils”?

now we have:
45% vote Trump, Romney, Biden;
25% vote Romney, Trump, Biden;
30% vote Romney, Biden, Trump

Now Romney is a clear winner, he has the majority of first choice votes, so nobody’s second or third choice even matters. So basically in this example, Biden was a spoiler candidate for Romney, and all those Democrats are going to be super disillusioned when they realize that the “it fixes the spoiler effect" and "you can vote honestly” lines are both wrong, and they could’ve had a better outcome if they’d voted strategically, just like in the old system.

RFC 2550 (1999)
Either a system is frozen and static, in which case it will not receive this version of GNU grep, and there is no problem. On the other hand, if a system receives updates, the system needs both minor and major changes all the time, to keep up with its ever-changing environment. This is the jungle in which we live. Linux syscalls are important to keep, since it’s hard to change a compiled binary. But it’s easy to change a shell script.

And don’t exaggerate. This won’t, in all likelihood, “break” your scripts.
Demand is not inelastic. Folks with no jobs don’t buy cars and gasoline.

> Land being hoarded and/or not being developed to the most of it's potential utility

Land value taxes (in the Georgist/Geoist manner) will ensure that a very valuable parcel of land, such as the one in the middle of San Francisco, will not have a low-value improvement such as a parking lot or a single-story dwelling on top of it.

Too bad that the actual policy we have instead is stuff like Prop 13 and rent control, which all but assures that such higher-value development will not happen.
Inflation is theft, and should (in a managed way) be punished as such. Change my mind.

Edit: Imagine if the tax rate every year was the rate minus CPI since the tax rate was created. (I.e. A 30% tax rate, with 2% CPI increase every year, would be only 20% by 2010.) That would get the politicians to kill inflation right quick… or set the tax rate to hilariously unpalatable levels constantly.
If you are connectiong to a database, you have to tell your program how to connect somewhere. The Django ORM does it through settings.py. I do both of the things you say are impossible, so maybe I am misunderstanding?
It is pretty straightforward - tool for creating personal knowledge base
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_knowledge_base
For OSU I built a 2-key keyboard (not to improve timing but to avoid destroying my WASD one that was expensive).

It's got a 16 mhz mcu in a busy-loop reading two CPU pins.. It should be pretty fast and consistent (but I don't know how much time the actual USB protocol stuff takes, and I suspect that more jitter is introduced in the OS anyway)

Yes, I could have used interrupts, but I didn't.
The irony about this is, that Richard Garriott was barely involved in the creation of UO.

He was busy creating a new single-player Ultima title, while a separate team, lead by Raph Koster created UO.
knowledge base is buzzwordy. it's a very elaborate (and good!) note taking app.
Well MS SQL Merge statement is not very good, and I personally avoid it, and most places I worked in recommend to avoid it, except in the simplest scenarios

From the docs
"At scale, MERGE may introduce complicated concurrency issues or require advanced troubleshooting. As such, plan to thoroughly test any MERGE statement before deploying to production."

I dont know if its better in PQSQL , but they took their time, so maybe it is
Fire them. The other employees will get pissed if you don't.

There's a certain type of person who gets pleasure from following rules exactly, particularly when other people don't follow those rules. A kind of smug moral superiority.

If they get into a position of power, they can make life worse for other people, without much regard for the actual cost of breaking such rules.

Removing egrep and fgrep is desperately petty stuff.
grep -P is only true way
Unfortunately it’s a meme that you can’t make any money on tiktok compared to other platforms. The money comes from sponsored content and Amazon affiliate links. Tiktok itself pays out very little, especially vs YouTube.
That requires setting up a server, which filters out 99% of the population.
Hey there, sorry about this experience. You can now use Edge Functions on Vercel, which have almost no cold boot: https://vercel.com/docs/concepts/functions/edge-functions

The aesthetics of all three of these apps seem almost the same?
Unemployment is at an all time low, so yeah...
Why does debouncing increase latency? Can’t they report the keypress immediately on the first signal spike, and then use the debounce timer to ensure that no additional presses are reported within the debounce interval?

Or are switches generating spurious signal spikes even when left untouched? That would explain why they need to delay the keypress…
Foreign exchange fees, perhaps?
Tailscale's insistence on using third party auth is an absolute PITA. With the withdrawal of GMail's free email to a custom domain/workspace product, our org switched email provider. The pain that then followed with TS support to switch auth providers was bad. TS don't have familiarity with the auth services they are promoting, all of the options available add at least $5/user to the bill, and it was a massive timesink for a 'just works' service to switch configs. All because TS don't want to manage their own auth infrastructure (I don't buy the marketing BS around this).

Headscale (see github) looks like a good way of taking back control of the auth side-of-things, and if we go that route, tailscale will lose the revenue they could have otherwise retained if they were more on the ball.
If you are in a flyover state, learn about venture tax credits and other startup investment incentives. You can often get investors a state tax credit that is up to 25% of the amount they invest. For angels, this is basically a 25% discount on their investment, and substantially reduces financial risk. Also, at least until you take in institutional money, being an LLC can unlock loss cary-forwards for your investors.
The other replies aren't very helpful imo

It's essentially an app for taking notes and jotting down ideas, and you write them in markdown. You can link references to other notes within a note to link up ideas.

Here's a 12 minute demo that should give you an idea:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgbLb6QCK88

I'm not that quite in-depth with my usage of it. I essentially use it as a scratchpad for a few notes for work. But it does the job
My thoughts exactly.
It sounds cool and I will try it, but even at this moment I'm not sure how is this different then for example OneNote.

Again, don't want to sound disrespectful and I will definitely try the tool.

The infrastructure bill is desperately needed. It’s the best piece of legislation to come in my adult life. It could be the difference between America crumbling into obscurity, or revitalizing the economy.

The student loan one.. woof. The timing is rough. I know it’s not popular to say, but all those dollars not going to loans are going to contribute to inflation.
It’s frustrating to try to be helpful for someone with a degree that says “Documentation are hard to follow”. Maybe you chose the wrong field?

Start with a single isolated component, say a simple static react single page web page.

Make your own website that shares some very basic interests you have.

Get that up on a service (maybe an AWS free tier or something.)

Then do something a little more complex, like create a fake/demo store front that sells pictures of goats or something.

Keep doing new isolated projects for yourself one piece at a time until you have at least enough experience to be helpful to someone else (like a relative who wants help putting together their own website, or a Craigslist gig project, etc.)

The secret to being a successful developer isn’t writing everything from scratch. It is finding an open source project that mostly does what you need and adapting it for your purposes.

And btw, I would avoid mongoDB unless that is something you know you will need. MySQL is more common and versatile, though everyone will say that about their go-to datastore.
It's a great idea, but after investing all the effort in developing it why build just one and locate it in.. West Texas?

Imagine one in every capital of the World.
It's mainly a supply issue. There is also a demand component but supply is the main bottleneck causing this sticky inflation. Originally they thought the supply issues would improve by now but it just can't catch up for some reason. So they need to force demand down until supply catches up. China also isn't helping with their foolish lockdown policies that are severely affecting supply chains.

Guess this is what happens when Western lawmakers sell out domestic manufacturing because some dickhead MBAs said it would be "efficient".
What % of recipients was that?
I would guess that people either don't appreciate or don't recognize the sarcasm. Or recognize it and don't agree that tightening the money supply is unnecessary
The problem is people being wrong, and the upside is feeling good about punishing them. IMO.
As front page says, it's a tool for building a knowledge base. Organizing your stuff.

Hmm, it's interesting that they are saying it's now supported. I've been using my NextDNS ip6 addresses in Tailscale for one or two years now. I just had to add the ip6 addresses in the global nameservers and checkmark the "override local DNS". It's been working really well. I've been able to use Tailscale to access my Synology for music and blocks ads on my phone.
I remember playing a first person Mario before, either on Newgrounds or Ebaumsworld, where the level was a narrow 3D corridor the width of a coin box. Much more playable but not as silly.
UBI is not so much impossible as unfalsifiable: the only obvious way to test it makes it not UBI.

UBI looks a lot like a minor rebranding of communist economic policy and has the same no-true-Scotsman problem in which failures are brushed off with "that's not real {UBI/communism}".
Several trillion dollars were handed by the Trump administration, in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. The uptick in spending is hardly unique to the Biden administration.
Here is what I gave for 'fgrep' on Slackware 15:

cat /bin/egrep

#!/bin/sh

Is that really hard to maintain :) I was expecting to see a link, but instead it is a shell script GNU is asking is to create. I do not know why GNU says that is hard to maintain going forward. BTW, this is grep v3.7
"In other words: enforced standardising the tech, doesn't pay off."

That's a completely different thesis from frameworks are bad. My org uses frameworks extensively and we reevaluate which are fit to purpose at every new project. Rigid enforcement of rules without thoughtful analysis is just a straw man and I've never seen an org that does that.

I'd also just disagree with the rest of the argument. Frameworks provide both speed to market and shared vernacular that makes it easier to onboard team members and find support communities online. I have a small team and some software that is 10+ years old. The maintenance team has turned over 300% since inception. Without a framework we'd be completely lost.
