As everyone else pointed out, frameworks are a natural evolution of sufficiently complex applications and "framework-less" codebases often have their own proto-framework solutions to things.

I don't think the issue is frameworks but rather being locked in to a framework. I'm really interested in seeing where the micro-frontend trend as well as island-centric tools like Astro, Fresh, or Hotwire evolve. Tools like these show it might not be the frameworks themselves but rather the way we use the frameworks that are the issue. Despite React praise for being "a library not a framework", there is a very clear focus on SPAs throughout the ecosystem and I feel like its potential flexibility is really stifled by this
*In Azure credits, iirc, so not cash fwiw.
Maybe common structure, not common parts. "Framework" is a good description: it gives you the shape, you fill it in.
Yes, if you want plug n play power, this new mustang is a poor choice.

I've heard Chevy LS builds / platforms are the way to go if you want massive power per roi dollar.
Most people don't turn their computer on to run Handbreak and turn it off immediately afterward.

Hence power draw is meaningful for desktop computers, not just energy usage for a task.
That sounds like a ton of toxic bs.
If this is the first time you've fired someone, consult an HR firm to make sure your legal bases are covered. Legal fees + insurance policy rate hikes are existential threats to your runway.

You're probably over-valuing the (non-liquid) options, since that's part of being a Founder.

If your equity is worth real money someday, you'll have the opportunity to buy back the shares (or introduce your ex-employee to an investor interested in purchasing). This is a win/win for early employees who tend to value liquidity. Part on amicable terms so this isn't an awkward conversation in two years.
Agreed. Someone borrowed this book from me and then he liked it so much to pay the full price for it. Actually the 1st edition is not published recently but the 2nd edition was published a few years back.

Why Coindesk is wrong about the daily active users in Decentraland Metaverse
Same. It’s labeled as alpha but I’ve had no issues, aside from the UI being a bit lacking. I usually just use it to send stuff to/from my phone easily. In that instance it’s kinda weird that the files just get dropped on my Desktop. But I’ve also used it a few times to transfer stuff to/from other devices.

There’s a lot of tools that fulfill “file transfer between random devices” but this one works great for me. Because I’ve got Tailscale everywhere already, I’ve also got file transfer everywhere too.
you know, i think it is simpler than that.

collective bargaining: if you are a fungible asset and the company can replace you and hire somebody else for the same price, no problem, tomorrow, then perhaps a collective bargaining is a good idea. If they can't replace all 10,000 of you for the same price, no problem, tomorrow, but they could on an individual basis, collective bargaining gains leverage and stability.

non-collective bargaining: every individual effectively makes their own deal. if the individual is not fungible, then bargaining en-mass to the lowest common denominator or average contributor will hurt at least some if not all of the individuals. so make your own deal since you are above average and this will be better. plus you avoid the union tax.

so it depends. if you are below average or easily replaceable then UNION is better for you. otherwise, make your own deal on your own merits and avoid the tendency to pull the above-average down to the midling.

unions are machines that thrive on, produce, and require, conformity and therefore must reject individuality.

Transporting? Maybe. Manufacturing? Nope. He has the right to do so.
What even is a framework-free web application? Do you have to write the HTTP server yourself?
No, and it's weird that you're being so aggressive in saying so. I'm only saying their post history is not strong evidence of the story being fake. The story itself is plenty suspect. My feeling is about 50%.
Can't wait to see the revisions in all the economic data after the US Midterms.

The EIA in particular has given up a lot of its reputation and credibility this year.
In general, it would be difficult to tell with an incomplete patient history whether a psychiatrist prescribing pramipexole for depression was making an irresponsible shot in the dark, or a calculated attempt to address something like treatment-resistant anhedonic depression after a few first lines, an MAOI, and referrals to an endocrinologist and a sleep study failed. That being said, I cannot think of any reasonable scenario that leads to simultaneously prescribing pramipexole and mood stabilizers. Perhaps it's too idealistic of me to hope that the pharmacist filling all three of those (plus two controlled substances...) would have called and asked for an explanation.
I don't think there's any evidence of that occurring.

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

> Aaronson grew up in the United States, though he spent a year in Asia when his father—a science writer turned public-relations executive—was posted to Hong Kong. He enrolled in a school there that permitted him to skip ahead several years in math, but upon returning to the US, he found his education restrictive, getting bad grades and having run-ins with teachers. He enrolled in The Clarkson School, a gifted education program run by Clarkson University, which enabled Aaronson to apply for colleges while only in his freshman year of high school. He was accepted into Cornell University, where he obtained his BSc in computer science in 2000, and where he resided at the Telluride House. He then attended the University of California, Berkeley, for his PhD, which he got in 2004 under the supervision of Umesh Vazirani.

> Aaronson had shown ability in mathematics from an early age, teaching himself calculus at the age of 11, provoked by symbols in a babysitter's textbook. He discovered computer programming at age 11, and felt he lagged behind peers, who had already been coding for years. In part due to Aaronson getting into advanced mathematics before getting into computer programming, he felt drawn to theoretical computing, particularly computational complexity theory. At Cornell, he became interested in quantum computing and devoted himself to computational complexity and quantum computing.

His kindergarten was clearly different than ours :D
Did you mean Agile?
They are not super loud about their work. If you swing by their forum or read the about page, you see they are a small-ish team. They are constantly tweaking things and proposing different features though.
Every time I see anti framework posts I am forced to frusteratedly chime in. This mentality makes me fume... not all of us work on massive teams where building stuff without a framework is even an option.

And even then, whats really a "framework"? You could argue it's even the language itself. Android apps used to be written in Java, and now they are pushing Kotlin way harder (and it may even be the default soon). Everyone who wrote those JavaScript apps back in the 1990s without TypeScript, are they still just as maintainable as their TypeScript counterparts? Such a shortsided and ignorant view IMO.

I think what bugs me the most is any sort of purist mentality (about anything) in software engineering. WE ARE ENGINEEERS. ENGINEERS USE THE RIGHT TOOL FOR THE RIGHT JOB! It should NEVER be "always use X", "never use Y". Both X and Y exist for a reason, so they are both useful for some reason.

And again, because I'm an engineer, I've also built my fair share of apps in just "purist" languages, the classic HTML / CSS / JavaScript, so I'm not against the purist approach either. Again, right tool for the right job.
Yes, the base NTP protocol is unauthenticated UDP. So, that's pretty insecure.

Properly configured, with sufficient upstream time servers, etc... it's still pretty robust against DoS attacks and evil maid attacks, so you'll have to do some work to trick clients into following your fake NTP server. And it will be hard to hide what you're doing while you do it.

It took a while, but I think we've actually solved that security problem with NTS. Now we just have to get the vendors and the community to support and deploy NTS widely.
Yes. There also seems to be a disconnect from this article and the press release it links. While they both contain the words, "Universal Basic Income," this UBI seems time-bound and purpose driven like an old-fashioned grant that is spread over time.
Isn't it even worse? Browser vendors don't even offer any way to not use their baked-in authenticator? With WebAuthn they offered at least the options of using a security key via Bluetooth/NFC/Bluetooth as alternatives to the device authenticator. I don't see that option with passkeys.

So, there seems no way to use a password manager with passkeys.
Well, they cache many things to make code analysis fast, so they are one of the few softwares that do make good use of memory. Some older version had very low heap size set and that can cause slow downs, so 2+ GB is recommended at least in my experience.
Sorry, I don't accept this very mechanical definition; not only is it a needlessly narrow one, it's downright meaningless in some paradigms, such as when implementing coroutines via continuations, but that doesn't mean you can't have frameworks in Scheme. Conversely, we could describe tuplespaces (a la Linda), or many event- or interrupt- driven systems (like an Ethernet port), as an inversion of control, but whether they're frameworks or not would be an open question, and indeed in the end almost everything happening inside a modern computer consists of one element calling back to another, up and down a stack.

Heck, it's not even true of some of those specifically called out in the article above. For example, I've written programs that use Rails as a library - or rather, suite of libraries - of functions and classes to be called, but anyone suggesting that Rails is somehow "not a framework", on the flimsy grounds that it did not dictate the flow of control, is gonna get some funny looks at morning standup.

But the greater problem is that narrow, mechanical definitions omit purpose, and talking about software without purpose being front-and-center becomes rapidly theological. If you're wondering what I mean by that, look up the wikipedia article for "Software framework", scroll through its desultory talk page, and recognize the inevitability of the boilerplate it got stuck with: "This section is written like a personal reflection, personal essay, or argumentative essay that states a Wikipedia editor's personal feelings".

Don't you want the engineers who are language agnostic, and have seen many a many framework and can quickly learn any quirks from your existing team?
I have to point out an anachronism in the animated gif:

10 PRINT "HELLO WORLD"
20 GOTO 10

I don't think anyone would have typed "HELLO WORLD" on TRS-80 BASIC. That came from C lineage and wasn't popularized till later. I think you'd write "Hi" or "Hi John" or something... funny.

My first computer was a TRS-80 Model III at age 9, at my dad's work during summer vacation.
Yes, the tutorial is good, but as often only discusses the server side and javascript side of the standard and doesn't talk about the client device side.
Yeah... I learned to share. Mostly.
Openrndr: Open-source framework for creative coding, written in Kotlin
You probably don't want to hear this - but I think you are chasing the wrong rabbit.

Not getting the good answer you want is an entirely separate problem from getting "pedantic" answers you don't want.

Reducing the amount of pedantic answers will NOT increase the amount of good answers. A lack of good answers is NOT caused by having pedantic answers.

People giving good answers do exist on SO - but just like everyone they have limited time - and they can choose which questions to spend that time on. They answer the questions they like most - well laid out, all relevant information contained, information about prior research/efforts to fix things, asking party seems to know/understand the basics, etc. - whether they pick your question to answer or not, depends solely on your question - not on the pedantry of other answers.

The big problem here is, that cracking down on "pedantic" questions through strict moderation - will ultimately have a negative effect on the amount of good answers on the platform. Simply because there will be less answers in general, an people will feel more reluctant about writing an answer - or leave entirely, after being punished for a not perfectly on-topic answer elsewhere.

But if you want to increase the amount of good answers on the platform as much as possible, you'll have to adopt a fairly lenient stance toward the pedantic answers... foster a free-for-all atmosphere, where all answers are welcome - but only the good ones get upvoted and accepted. Consider it training the next generation of good answer-givers.

So the big question is - if you can't have both - do you want a forum that has MORE good answers - or do you want a forum that has LESS pedantic answers?
the real reason frameworks are a burden is that you re not allowed to edit their code. We should be able to change every bit of the architecture for whatever reasons to make it an organic , coevolving part of our project. But for this to be possible we will need AI to perform external upgrades without breaking our code
Or perhaps it uses file hashes to determine if certain images are similar.
We, humans, are preconditioned to be linear in our extrapolation (as opposed to exponential) thanks to our hunter ancestors (and FPS games!). It is very clear that the rate of advancement of Large Language Models is super-linear, if not exponential.

Hence, I indeed predict that keyword search will be completely supplanted in the next 5 years as a mechanism for search.

Of course we will still need to do lookups for ISBNs and generic ids, but that isn't keyword search, that is index lookup functionality.

Case in point: take a look at Meta Research's Contriever model (https://github.com/facebookresearch/contriever), which already matches keyword techniques in efficacy without any supervision.

This is only the beginning, come build the future with us, we see it very clearly :)

At a minimum, Technology Standards Czar has to be earned. You can't just conjure up a spot on the org chart one day and staff it with some outside rando with a long, jargon-stuffed resume. The Technology Standards Czar should be an internal hire with a history of making good technology decisions for the org.
Great analysis, but the argument at the end still seems wrong. The methodology has been carefully designed so that the clock jitter only adds random noise, not a directional bias. Even if the oscillator consistently runs fast by triggering 90 ppm early, it doesn't predictably increase the probability of a 0 or 1 bit.

I suppose you could get more randomness using von Neumann's method for a biased coin - either waiting for multiple time periods, or with multiple decay sources in parallel. Or XOR the bits with a shitty but cheap source of randomness. But it's more valuable to be able to put an upper bound on your bias is - here, something like 10^-12 - and ensure that's acceptable for your application.

Rails will harm the maintenance of your software*

*Is really the accurate summation of the article. And yes, this is well known. Every article about a company upgrading Rails is "it took us several years and only three people died." And we know better than to use MVC nowadays.

No offense to Rubyists, but in the Ruby ecosystem, I have seen a disturbing lack of absorbing information from other programming ecosystems. This article smells like that to me. If you've only used Ruby and Rails, you might not realize some of the dangers and inherent limitations of the design unless you've worked in other ecosystems.
+1 to this. It seems that the underperformance was known well before this milestone. The only reason OP wishes to terminate the employee now is purely because the vesting date is approaching. Termination sans vesting sends a bad message to the rest of the employees. This is a bed OP may need to sleep in to save face.
yes, and for voice, video, 3d objects, the digital knowledge at large.
Interesting. One minor note is Moda a DRI too, albeit a weak one.
That's a great project, very interested to see how it plays out. In my previous job we used Unicorn but didn't hit any GVL contention issues (much smaller scale than Shopify's).

As a suggestion to the authors: A section titled "Why not Unicorn?" explaining the rationale behind this and why one would want to choose it over Unicorn, would be very helpful. If not in the current experimental stage, then in the "stable" one.
What's Google's play here? This feels like desperation to be part of crypto. They cannot possibly be losing a dime for lack of this form of payment?

> Google announced the deal at this year’s Cloud Next, a conference where Google pitches its state-of-the-art cloud computing business (which accounts for nearly a tenth of its revenue) to companies.

wow, when did that happen? 10% of revenue from cloud? I assume because they lump Google Workspace in to that, like Azure lumping AAD.

> A fortnight ago, Richard Widmann, Google’s head of strategy, Web3, and cloud, called his company a “layer zero” for blockchain and said the team is building a “giant bridge” for cross-chain interoperability.

Can't wait for it to be compromised!

If I was writing short term sci-fi, I'd have Starbucks, or some such chain with omnipresence, have bookable meeting rooms with technology like that, so that we can go and have quality meetings across the world at affordable prices.
I really don't get this trend of using C and C++ as "scripting" languages, what a laziness to learn how to work with compilers.
This is designed for the formula student electric competition, not just to go fast in a straight line.
If true, could this be caused by those professions being more academic, and thus full of people who both have tenure and flexible positions and who teach for a living?
No, your iPhone does not magically work differently than everyone else’s.
Even on C++, regardless of templates, most code doesn't need to be header only, other than laziness to properly learn how to work with compilers and build systems.

This seems as it was a fun project. I'd caution people not to take it as a "better" way to generate cryptographically secure random numbers. It's just a method that is used, which is good enough for lots of instances that need a randomish number.
Perhaps they are transmogrified?
the centrifugal force and the weight are applied in different points.

all the ~100km of tether below geostationary orbit will have positive net weight by definition. All this weight must be held by tensile strength, whether it comes from a fleet of rockets or centrifugal force is irrelevant.

Again the hard thing is not making it float, geostationary satellites do this already, the hard thing is building a 100km long satellite.

EDIT: said another way consider a chain being pulled apart by two tractors. All forces on the chain cancel each other yet some chains will break and some will not.

Forces are first applied, then propagated, then (vectorially) summed. If the material cannot handle the forces applied it will break.

If you happen to have seen those "Hydraulic press against X" videos you can see how it is not enough to have forces cancel each other in different points.

And to be clear about how this is relevant: for (at least) the first 50km or so the centrifugal force is negligible, so even if

weight + centripetal_force = 0

you have

|weight| + |centripetal_force| = fuckton of force

i think humans are just copying every time we give an answer without much thought. we're either regurgitating something we previously thought/solved or something we heard somewhere.

when you have to put your head down and actually think for awhile, then maybe you're doing something new or at least not within your brain-training data. I don't think AI can do this yet. it can only copy pieces of its training data out to look like something new, but it isn't really. like when i was describing a video game idea i had to a friend and he called me out on just stealing bits of other games and mashing them together. he was right. it wasn't original. and this is all the AIs can do right now.
One day we will return to valuing a rich commons enough to price it in. (An existing example is like parks etc. We are rightfully not rushing to let them be converted/developed, even in NYC)

Instead of subordinating the commons to whatever the biggest amount of nameless faceless money happens to be in the area.
If you mean Boltzmann's formula it will be valid for systems in thermodynamical equilibrium. Is your system in thermodynamical equilibrium?

You talk about macrostates. How do you define a macrostate for your initial configuration? Why this one and not another? Does it change over time?

Think of it from another angle. You have a box with some of these balls inside - all you know is that they all have the same energy. Do you agree that the macrostate won't change over time and the entropy will remain constant?

However, if you knew the positions they will be concentrated in some regions more than in others. That's what you called lower entropy in your example.

So what is it, does knowing more about a system change it's entropy or not?
It matters how it is perceived. If everyone involved sees a company firing a bad employee, then good. But if I were in that situation, I would see a company that decided to be greedy and did not care about the sacrifices you made for them.

I treat equity as zero cash value, but that makes it worse because the company is now clawing back something worthless!

That said, I find the whole concept of vesting cliffs to be a bit of nonsense. Vesting I can understand, but why set these cliffs when they are not explicitly tied to regularly-scheduled reviews, performance, or some other checkpoint?
