As someone who has been writing code for 30 years and has been developing "web apps" since the late 90s, it's really funny to me how things come full circle.

You just described the entire point of client-side rendering as it was originally pitched. Computation on the server is expensive and mobile networks were slow and limited in terms of bandwidth (with oppressive overage charges) just a few years ago. Client-side rendering was a way to offload the rendering work to the users rather than doing it upfront for all users. It means slower render times for the user, in terms of browser performance, but fewer network calls and less work to do server-side.

In other words, we used to call them "Single Page Web Applications" because avoiding page refreshes was the point. Avoid network calls so as to not consume bandwidth and not make unnecessary demands of the server's limited computational resources.

Now things might be changing again. Mobile networks are fast and reliable. Most people I know have unlimited data now. And while computation is still one of the more expensive resources, it's come down in the sense that we can now pay for what we actually use. Before we were stuck on expensive bare metal servers and we could scale by adding a new one but we were likely overpaying because one wasn't enough and two was way overkill except for peak traffic bursts. So we really scrambled to do as much as we could with what we had. Today it might be starting to make sense to make more trips back to the server depending on your use case.

To address your concern about latency or outages, every application needs to be built according to its own requirements. When you say "there's not a perfect solution to this", I would say "there is no one size fits all solution." We are talking about a client / server model. If either the server or client fails then you have failed functionality. Even if you can get yourself out of doing a fetch, you're still not persisting anything during an outage. The measures that you take to try and mitigate that failure depend entirely on the application requirements. Some applications strive to work entirely offline as a core feature and they design themselves accordingly. Others can accept that if the user does not have access to the server then the application just can't work. Most fall somewhere in between, where you have limited functionality during a connection interruption.

Not really, as you can cultivate only a handful of mushrooms. The good ones have to come from the woods.

Those usually make the horizontal and vertical lines different widths.
How would one have figured this out? I assume only because it's documented in a service manual? Would this be within the BIOS if one disassembled the code?
I have a cheap $200 monoprice printer. I followed the advice of others and it works reasonably well. I've printed a few large threaded nuts and bolts to get a feel for what's possible, and haven't used it since. It's the CAD side of it that gets me... I just can't stomach getting into bed with AutoDesk ever again.

Maybe it's time for me to try OpenSCAD.

I also have a cheap $200 cnc engraver that I've done even less with, for similar reasons.

> Reviver offers a battery-powered version of the RPlate that costs $19.95 per month as well as a hard-wired option for commercial vehicles priced at $24.95 per month.

Is the hard-wired option only for commercial vehicles? That seems kind of like a missed opportunity.
Referring to COP as efficiency is an intentionally misleading practise pushed by the heat pump industry that makes communication worse for everyone forever if we accept it and doesn't really help anyone.

Refer to it as COP or as moving 3 units of heat for one unit of input.
The people this article is about think that race is associated genetically with intellectual ability and worry about things like racial purity. The people who previously talked about race use it as a proxy for identifying groups of people that aren't succeeding in society, causing some drag on economic development, and try to figure out how to solve the problem.
I think the latter is better, simply because it can be upgraded to its next step, which is to shift the focus of the jail time from punishment to rehabilitation.

In general I don't think punishments work. I can't imagine one goes back to being a productive, and wholesome person after 100 lashes in public. And other first world leaders seem to think the same.

There number of celebrities that render fine; as it relates to Trump, guessing it’s related to the images the model used.

Here are some examples, but obviously if you use the specific celebrity name you’re more likely to get more narrow results:

I guess you haven't really engaged with the climate change speech that people like Greta advocate for?

I don't think anyone that's serious about climate change really argues that people should become vegan, of course, it would help. But what is needed is not these sort of individual choices leading to systemic change but systemic change leading to change in individual choices. In other words, you don't become vegan because your heart changes but because suddenly a mostly vegetable-based diet becomes the cheapest alternative through different government programs. Of course there's a lot of complexity to this and price mechanisms don't always work, but prices + cultural changes can.

Our change in diets should be tackled the same way obesity and smoking have been tackled. We need information campaigns and price incentives. These as you might see are not individual choices but political, state-wide, and for climate change these need to be world-wide policy changes. That's what serious climate activists advocate for.

What's the main problem? Our political systems are not capable of properly solving these issues any longer. In a few words: things don't get done anymore. So personally I think a big part that's missing in the climate change debate is precisely the question of "what sort of political system we need to ensure these changes are made". And I think someone like Greta actually fails in this regard, in that although she points out the problem and the culprits there is very little work done beyond that.
I hadn't thought of that but that's a great idea. I see that being useful as I experiment with pre-trained vs custom models too.
you realise that you’re describing your own viewpoint as a comicbook understanding of the world?
I think they can give you a first idea of what you should be searching for, if you find a specimen you have no name for. From there on you'll have to figure out what is similar, edible, and grows in your area; and in particular, how the edible ones are different from inedible/poisonous ones. It is usually just a few.

I can't fathom eating some wild fungi without doing this kind of due diligence, blindly trusting an app.
+100. If people are interested in quick-win practical usage - consider efficacy in system design intervews. Eg What many people dont realise is that google system design interviews are subtly testing your ability to model queues :)
Side note: in Thailand and the Philippines, at least, mobile internet is blazing fast and not more expensive.
Musk would have more difficulty funding all those companies that have made all those advances. And there are already very few Musks out there.
I find these org mode re-creations in other editors neat but the problem always seems to fall to the fact that other editors can't properly support org-indent-mode as they lack support for virtual text or because of other problems.

In org with org-indent-mode mode the following text:

* Foo
** Bar
baz

Is rendered as:

* Foo
* Bar
baz

This visual indentation and separation is, at least to me, an important feature which helps when reading.

It is basically a must-have for any org-mode re-implementation (I'm not just making up obstacles here, I daily-drive neovim and like the idea behind the org-mode plugin for neovim but I've tried it multiple times and it just doesn't work for me).

There are also probably many other shortcomings too.

Thanks but the webpage i remember was older. Early 2000s style article and more about Vietnam era.
Because migrating to NextJS would have meant doing a rewrite of the entire backend which was already written in Python/Django and running in production. Migrating to htmx was much less risky.
They will, fortunately, not need to solve any of those problems, because there won't be any power plant. Instead, they will spend all the investors' money and then go do something else.
Based on what is written there, if I'm a standard non tech user, and that I don't know anything about Js cross site requests, then, when I browse a news website (that is not Google), I don't expect google to be able to see my activity. As, again, it is not their website that I'm visiting.

In addition, Chrome is distributed by Google itself and they clearly advertise it as made by them, better and safe. They make it explicit that it is entirely under their control. So, it would be logic for a standard non tech user to expect that google do not track them when they are using the "google" chrome incognito mode.

Keep in mind that a lot of users would not know the difference between a client and a server.

Also, remember that google do everything to blur the lines when it was convenient for them:

When you are logged in Google, your own browser is logged with a special profile icon. If you look at it you can launch a Google search directly from the url bar or from the "new tab" page.

Even as a power user, can you easily reply to the following question? is the new tab your browser domain or Google domain? Hint: some content here is dynamic depending on your Google account...
No reason not to combine them.

Have a big brick or water thing inside. Heat it while it is sunny with a heat pump.

Hell you could even melt a few tons of sodium acetate during summer and use it for december/january
I have mild and pedestrian taste for mushrooms and I’m satisfied by grocery offerings, but no there aren’t plenty of options at the grocery store. Some different presentations of button mushrooms is common, and maybe shiitakes. More varieties are sometimes available at some farmers markets, generally cultivated, and even still they don’t offer many varieties found in the wild.

It’s not the potential risk. Mushroom hunters are usually both very careful and very knowledgeable, or at least very careful to defer to people who are very knowledgeable. And a lot of them are either chefs or supplying chefs. For everyone else I t’s mostly because the variety available is so much more limited than you portrayed, and because mushroom hunting is a hobby some people enjoy either for its own sake or for the context of being in the woods to forage for that’s own sake.
Thank you for helping make my point.
I don't even see the quote you claim comes from the article. What I read in the article is about conflicts of interest between media and federal bureaucracy, a problem regardless of the safety and efficacy of the vaccine.

You haven't disagreed with anything I said. My original comment says "Htmx is great for developers who need client side interactivity, but would rather not write any js". I'm sure a team of Python developers is enjoying not writing Javascript. My point is that you don't have to switch to a completely different paradigm to reap the performance benefits that the article lists.
Perhaps you mean Free Software rather than Open Source? Parts of VS Code are open source but they are not Free Software.
I'm sure you have.

Regardless of that, the idea that you learn htmx because don't want you to learn JavaScript is simply incorrect.

Rather, it's how you use JavaScript that should be considered.
Some valid criticism at the end there.

Trouble is most of the photos were taken with a DSLR sans GPS module. I _do_ have plenty of metadata about the camera, lens, and exposure settings so that's something.
For reference, a transit pass JUST for Toronto costs like $200, and you can't even travel outside Toronto proper.

"The Social Network" synth sounds
This is such a poor idea I can't even describe. Apple discourages using AirTags on pets yet alone a family member. It depends on the serendipity of them going near an Apple device which seems highly unlikely considering the common problem of them wandering away from their home or facility into some unpopulated area.

Plus you have to remove the speaker since it would alert frequently since it's no longer within BT range of it's owner iPhone. That's Apple's anti stalking feature.

If you want to track a loved one get a GPS tracker on them with cellular connectivity. They're cheap, always can report location and are far the better solution.
Even the tardigrades?
Yes. Ask questions if you like.
I've messed with Yolo a little bit for another project. Do you think that could be fruitful?
Ideally I'd like to use something that's able to discern between fairly similar things. Like "hummingbird" vs "bird" or "man" / "woman" versus "person".
I read it as curiously exclaiming, as in “I don’t understand and have preconceived contrarian views but I might be missing something”, which is a really good “change my mind” introduction.

How so? I thought achievement was its own reward. Seems like that should be adequate for people who don’t care about being economically productive.
If they used 50% enriched 6Li/7Li, they would breed extra tritium. But there would be no point, because they would have no way to refine it out. They don't care, because they know there will never be an actual power plant. They will spend investors' money, have some fun, and move on.
And now I'm curious whether this would work inside a container or not. I know dind is a thing, but I don't recall whether it needs special hacks that bocker lacks.
Although I admire a lot of the work that Greta has done. I think she has failed as an activist in that she's not really encouraged people to dream as much as she's encouraged people to sulk and be angry.

I think we need to start thinking more seriously about what the political, societal and economic system look like in a world where this thing that we want (climate change has stopped) can happen. Simply saying "we need to stop climate change, big producers are killing us and politicians are doing nothing" is the easy part. And someone in her position should probably start considering the hard part more seriously.

I, for one, think we need to completely rethink our representation-based system because personally I haven't felt properly represented in... well, ever. I can't expect politicians that are worried about the next elections to actually make the hard decisions that will definitely cost them lots of votes to be made. Specially because if they actually lose then the other side will not only backtrack everything that was done but push it further to the other side. It's so much easier to destroy than to construct.
Except those reasons are also stupid, more than half of Americans are overweight, and you're telling me medical students don't practice on patients over 200lbs???
Sure. I’m not saying it’s not a problem. Just that it’s a fraction of a percent of the big picture problem.

Naturally they make us domestics sacrifice before any industry needs to evolve a little.

At each 90 degree jump you might, say, put in one unit of work to move two units of heat.

The problem is at step two you have three units of heat, two of which came from ambient heat.

At step three you have 4.5 units of heat, two of which came from ambient heat.

Step five there are 6.75..and so on.

You're expending a lot of energy moving energy you put in so you get diminishing returns.

The theoretical limit is T_hot / T_change (in absolute units like kelvin). If your change is roughly the hot temperature, there's no benefit.
"machine learning could be used to visually identify fungi"

Even if the recognition rate would be way better - NOPE.

There are mushrooms that look really identical - but one is deadly poisenous and the other good to eat.

Some mushrooms you can only identify by slicing them up, smelling, watch color change, look for certain small details under the top - and where they grow.

With current state of ML, you can get only a very rough classification and I doubt that changes anytime soon.

Portable DNA sequencing sounds better, but I am sceptical, if the tech is mature enough. (If it is, sign me up, but it sounds expensive, they do not even have a price tag)
There’s nothing boring about a car. It’s private, facilitates living outside of cities so it’s not dense and gross and offers the freedom to go anywhere with roads.

Maybe we should have hired you instead of a "terraform expert" ;)

and yes, which features worked in GCP but not in terraform GCP were not clear, and there was always a "this works in beta" thing going on.
It's amazing how common this type of thing is. Hadn't heard of Openresty before.
They are already succeeding: they have got the investors' money, and no force on Earth is powerful enough to make them give any of it back.

There was a movie with Gene Wilder and Zero Mostel, a few years back, about this business model.
Based off the market rate for chanterelles my harvest this year would have cost several thousand dollars had I merely bought them from the grocer.
There's no such thing as a secure "app". Only the API needs to be secure. That's more straightforward when your API looks like REST/RPC calls rather than "renders html templates to a string".
Lets not call it a proxy war. This rhetoric that Russian propaganda is using and it's not really intelligent to support it.

Yes, as a hyper individualistic American fuck public transport. I don’t want to travel with other people, I don’t want to live in dense cities and I don’t want to go to like the 10 places with public transport. I love national parks, camping, hiking, road-tripping etc.

I haven't heard anything about interpretation of rules changing that causes problems. I have heard pleeeenty of stories like yours about the concrete.

And that's what it comes down to, EPC and design not understanding each other and mucking it up. Regulations and rules have not gotten in the way or caused ballooning budgets or massive delays.

IN fact, if the NRC had more regulations and required the design to specify how to construct and other parts, then perhaps these projects would not be in so much trouble. But instead all three sides of the deal seem intent on mucking up the construction and then suing each other at the end when everything falls apart.

And that's the problem with the entire nuclear construction industry: no accountability or reliability, and tooooons of corruption. Some of the execs involved with the Summer project are going to jail, and if executives in the US are going to jail for something other than medical regulations (the only regulations with real teeth for executives), then they are hopelessly corrupt.
Finding an esp32 at a reasonable price is probably the hardest part.

FSD doesn't work until it does. How does anyone have "full knowledge" that they won't be able to deliver? One breakthrough and you're done.

Tesla is taking the money people are paying them for FSD and using it to... build an FSD system. They are hiring top talent, developing new ML architectures, developing new training hardware, developing new inference hardware, and overall just spending more money on the problem than any other company.

Having a hard time understanding how spending people's money on the thing you say you're spending it on is "fraud".
If it’s a choice between cornbread and starvation people will learn to eat cornbread.
That's the general advice for eating random plants, but not mushroom advice.
That sounds like ridiculous pseudoscientific babel. The idea that electrons from the ground as opposed to electrons from anywhere else have a special effect is unbelievable.
That’s way too expensive on the order of trillions of dollars. Not worth it and not worth the extra regulation that will come with requiring new roads to support them.
Interesting. Another reason for me to not touch Windows, I guess.
> All you're doing is moving the needle a tiny bit so that in the next generation there will be fewer people inclined to use condoms.

so you claim, yet condoms have been around for generations now and my perception is that their use has only increased over generations. am i mistaken in this?

> What contradictory behavior are you referring to?

i said "apparently contradictory": on first look it appears to be contradictory, whether it objectively is or not. better would have been for me to use "unexpected", best would have been "unpredictable": because evolution produces so many random effects along the way.

> we can't all just get along, because we live on a finite planet with finite resources, and at the end of the day it is Darwin who runs the show

Darwinism suggests here that solving for limited resources will someday be required for an organism to be successful. it doesn't care how that's solved for: how can you be so confident that the emerging solution won't be coupled with "all [of this organism] just getting along?" for example, an unending arms race over physical superiority may be disastrous against resource use, and a more successful strategy might be some level of cooperation that avoids that arms race. if today's humans are a Darwinian product consider that they differ from parts of the past both along increased large-scale cooperation (e.g. cities) and less individual-against-individual violence (e.g. violent crime). that already looks a lot more like us "just getting along" than many stages of the past.

how long will this be stable? where lies the next local optima? can anyone really know?
Yes. The ITER successor is DEMO which is larger and meant to be the production power plant design. The idea is ITER proves out the plasma control physics and scaling laws for fusion, so you can then build DEMO, get the predicted results and say "right, this is how a fusion plant looks". ITER will do Q=10 if we're right anyway, but the scaling laws are all volume based: the real trouble with fusion is that building gigantic vacuum vessels is very hard to do, but we're at the limits of magnets (unless MIT can get HTSCs working, but even then, you still benefit from volume).
