The right one makes me think of a cheesy 70's sci-fi paperback. The discrepancy reminds me of C.S. Lewis' Space Trilogy:

“But Ransom, as time wore on, became aware of another and more spiritual cause for his progressive lightening and exultation of heart. A nightmare, long engendered in the modern mind by the mythology that follows in the wake of science, was falling off him. He had read of 'Space': at the back of his thinking for years had lurked the dismal fancy of the black, cold vacuity, the utter deadness, which was supposed to separate the worlds. He had not known how much it affected him till now-now that the very name 'Space' seemed a blasphemous libel for this empyrean ocean of radiance in which they swam. He could not call it 'dead'; he felt life pouring into him from it every moment. How indeed should it be otherwise, since out of this ocean all the worlds and all their life had come? He had thought it barren: he now saw that it was the womb of worlds, whose blazing and innumerable offspring looked down nightly even upon the earth with so many eyes-and here, with how many more! No: Space was the wrong name.”

― C. S. Lewis, Out of the Silent Planet
Came here to say this exact same thing.

I still remember - November 2013, I was interviewing for some jobs in Boulder CO, and was invited to dinner by a tech entrepreneur. I showed him how good Swype was.
Back then I had a tiny-weenie Xperia (S, or SL or U??). I remember clearly how blown away he was. And I remember clearly how enjoyable it was to actually be able to swype one handed. I did not even ever had a case protector for this phone, and managed to never break it because I would not drop it!

I can't remember which of the phones I had after that with which I was so sad when i realized Swype had disappeared when I could not reinstall it :(I had tried Swift key, the Stock google, and I think another one, but none never came close to Swype learning algorithm :(
Maybe. Or maybe the tool has the capabilities in some notional box-ticky sense but not in a way that's actually effective in practice.

Wow SharePoint on HN! That doesn't happen a lot.

I was at Microsoft in the group called MCS which stood for Microsoft Consulting Services during the 3rd release of Sharepoint, the one that finally found market fit and was abbreviated MOSS (Microsoft Office Sharepoint Services) and we joked that M in MCS stood for MOSS because it sold like crazy and many of us in the field had crazy busy times supporting major implementations.

I was amazing at SharePoint, but I am very, very happy that I moved on and hopefully will never have to touch it again. It is an amazingly extensible product that was very often a victim of that exact extensibility.

I saw an intranet at Cisco that was build on some monstrous IBM software and it was impossible to navigate. And I saw Confluence based intranets that are quite nice. You get what you put into it. If you build a nice knowledge hierarchy and have librarians/content owners, you'll get a fine intranet regardless of software. If you don't, you won't.

Prison reform is possible.

While I certainly sympathize with the aspect of reform for prison, it seems unpalatable to me to not punish, say, someone who rapes a child or with complete disrespect for the law and other people and breaks into homes or smashes car windows to basically be told to hang out and watch TV and “reform” at home with pamphlets or asinine internet courses from a state-provided computer.

Parole, probation, house arrest, etc. are tools we have to provide more leniency at the discretion of a judge as appropriate. And there are different levels of prisons to be considered here as well. Rehab can occur while in prison too.

But in addition to reforming prisons, we need to solve the problem at its core. Why do people do things that land them in prison in the first place? This is where healthcare, education, and other projects can stop the problem before it starts.
It feels like society is falling apart and we're supposed to trust our fellow conversationalists to go where the conversation should.

Thanks for your response.

Readme was not linked here. I looked and didn't find it in the parent link. Feel free to abuse my competence or, you know, link it in the discussion? Actually I'll do it.

There. That feels better doesn't it?

More quirks you have to learn is not less.

You know 5 quirks.

This new thing has 3 /different/ quirks to perform the same task you already know.

To use the thing with "less" quirks you need to know _more_ quirks. And that can be fine! Or you might decide it as not worthwhile. But it is more quirks you gotta learn. Pointing that out is not a non-sequitur to a discussion that starts with:

>So it's grep like i already have installed and know its quirks?

"Yes, and it's faster if you need that and its ui makes more sense to me." Is an appropriate addendum.

Less quirks means you gotta learn more. And that is just life for all of us and one of the barriers that protects incumbents that are in some sense not as good. Note my selfish comment was taking my perspective that I already have grep and I already use it and know its quirks.

From your readme:

>You need a portable and ubiquitous tool. While ripgrep works on Windows, macOS and Linux, it is not ubiquitous and it does not conform to any standard such as POSIX. The best tool for this job is good old grep.

So you see how if you have to know grep anyway, less quirks isn't a great thing in and of itself to the user. Simpler to use interface, yeah that could be compelling. Or not. Faster could be compelling. Or not. Some additional feature could be compelling.

Maybe ripgrep is amazing and the future and just dandy and I wish you the best of luck with everything you want to achieve with your version of grep.

--------

>Your follow-up comment looks ever worse to be honest, and sounds like an argument for never building anything different at all

That's basically pretty rude and difficult to reconcile with what I actually said.

>ripgrep may well be a better grep for some users. And that is Great, really! We should all try and make things better! Hurrah!

Q. What is ripgrep?

A. A faster grep where some people find the defaults in the interface more usable, with some potentially interesting additional features.

What a lot of words wasted to get to that Q & A. Please feel free to improve it while maintaining that length. Signal to noise.

>Many quarks and antiquarks seethe in a roiling particle “sea.”

What do physicists mean when they "antiquark"? I had it explained to me that it spins the opposite way. Which confused me more, what does it matter that it spins the opposite way? You means it has constructive or destructive interference? If it has destructive interference, why don't particles explode?

In a similar vein, chemistry says that chemistry bonds and antibonds [1]. I can kind get it. But not really.

How effective are these protests? Is there any way to quantify that? Certainly it gets news coverage, but does it have any effect on people?

My best guess is that most people have formed opinions on climate change at this point, and these types of protests don't really move anyone's opinion - if you believe in climate change, you still believe in climate change, and you probably don't think climate change is more urgent now that someone threw tomato soup on an old painting. If you don't believe in climate change, you still don't believe in climate change, I can't see soup on a painting affecting that.

I suspect Putin invading Ukraine did more for climate change action than any amount of protests would do.

I was of divided mind going into this series. I do consider myself a Tolkien purist (I have most of the History of Middle Earth on my shelf, and recently read the Nature of Middle Earth), and instinctually cringe at the thought of deviating from the books. (And I was irked at some of the changes Peter Jackson introduced in his movies.)

But:

* You can't cover 3000+ years of history in five seasons without making changes.

* If you want to have the same human characters (and the actors who portray them) season after season, you need even more changes.

* The series must stand on it's own, without forcing viewers to read the books; and

* There are a number of gaps and inconsistencies in Tolkien's writings on events and motives. (Galadriel's history and motives in particular are a mess, so it's not clear what her "true" story even is).

The published Silmarillion (including the texts summarizing the Second and Third Ages) is based on the most complete versions of Tolkien's writings, not necessarily his most recent. When did the Sun and Moon first appear? Are Orcs descended from Elves? Was Sauron fully evil when he first collaborated with the Elves on the Rings? The answers all depend on what text you read.

So I think there is more freedom here for the show writers than many of their on-line critics acknowledge. Even more so when you consider the Second Age writings have very few scenes and dialogues between characters. We don't get to "know" Elendil, Isildur, Galadriel, or Sauron like we get to know Frodo, Sam, Aragorn, and Gandalf. Does filling in those details make them "unfaithful" to the books?

In addition, some of the deviations they clearly have made -- the importance of mithril, Galadriel's dagger and quest, the dark elf Arondir -- do have important useful payoffs in the plot. The lack of mithril gives the writers an opportunity to show how Sauron aided the Elves in Ring making in an understandable way. It also leads to Galadriel giving up her dagger and (hopefully) giving up her obsession with avenging her brother (and perhaps starting her transition to the Wise High Elf we meet in the LotR?). Arondir's appearance allowed for the casting of a damn good actor (Ismael Cruz Córdova), and exploration of an interracial (Elf-Human) relationship by an interracial set of actors (likely emotionally engaging the viewers). I think those payoffs have been worth it.

A tangent: I think the casting and acting has been excellent, the CGI beautiful, and the plot twist at the season ending clever (giving viewers a reason to watch the whole season all over again). I enjoyed it, and look forward to the next season.
What did you like about nodejs and js?
I actually do like "collecting" the errors when possible, and having them return in the API response (for example). Instead of the common pattern where there's just singular "error:" in the top-level json.

Works great for things like validation.
Well, for many other producers, it's both were songs start and end. They might send them elsewhere for mastering, but not for production work.

Anything without analogue instruments doesn't need much to be found elsewhere (I'd argue also anything with analogue instruments doesn't either, but many prefer to track vocals, drums, guitars, etc. on Pro Tools or similar)

Mostly, though depends on the genre, and the kind of artist. Artists working mostly with analogue instruments, or that have huge sales and production teams, will tend to use other apps, mostly Pro Tools, and use Live as a starting point/sketchpad.

Producers and composers of pop and electronic music, that are not on the paycheck level of, say, top-charting artists, even if they still have tons of fans and a good career, do tend to do everything "in the box". It's perfectly capable. Heck, even FL Studio has created tons of "in the box" global hits...
> Companies are also paying influencers, twitch streamers, and YouTubers to promote their products in a way that conventional ad blockers can't prevent.

Which I'm okay with in the same sense that I'm okay with newspaper/magazine ads or billboards or TV/radio commercials: they're annoying, but easy to ignore compared to online ads chewing up CPU time and battery life while actively violating one's privacy.
This is... very scary.
IBM has done this for decades. For many products, especially on the mainframe, every message has a unique identifier, typically with a prefix for the module or subsystem that generated it, a message number, and an action or severity code, such as “I” for information or “E” for error.

A series of Messages and Codes books is supposed to list every message, each with an explanation and suggested user, administrator, or programmer response.

This was more important when messages were practically limited to a single line on a CRT or teletypewriter, and customers had only the printed or microfiche documentation, not online help or websites, but it’s still valuable today.

You're missing the point. The service cloudflare donates isn't free. That is the whole point of EasyList’s post. There are plenty of comments on this submission doing back of napkin math to find a reasonable monthly cost for hosting that text file. If you want to donate that bandwidth - go for it.

But the comments here about Cloudflare’s ToS read a lot like folks feeling entitled to getting bandwidth for for free. Cloudflare is providing a very specific service for free, and it does a lot of good.

It would be great if Cloudflare decided to donate. But I’d re-evaluate your stance if you’re feeling entitled to their resources.
I'm assuming that people have a biological imperative to reproduce. That matches what I know about biology and evolution and it explains why people so frequently have kids despite kids being, on paper, a rather poor deal. The "what for" is just "This is my fundamental nature."

I think that you can't really examine your out of a fundamental drive. You can't scratch the itch by asking "what for" any more than you could convince yourself that the fire wasn't burning you by contemplating why your hand hurt when you put it in the fire. Most people just want to reproduce as an end goal to itself.

All this said - I tend to think OP's problem is more psychological / depression as others have commented. If it were truly a strong desire to have children than OP would have simply figured out a way (adoption, in vitro, getting with another woman, surrogate, etc). Instead, it might just be a manifestation of depression - which is why OP just suffers from the desire rather than attempting to fulfill it.

> ..not the Amazon overlord part.

If anything the really successful implementations of this generally are overlord free.

You can quibble about how trustworthy apple should be, but people generally consider them more trustworthy. Especially due to their "on device only" stance. They're also the most successful smart-watch and biometric tracker. They're also making great progress on the voice assistant front too.

> more accessible via the Matter protocol

Unlikely IMO. Matter just isn't there yet, and doesn't mandate local only, and doesn't apply to camera/audio, which is big on the invasiveness front.

One thing the watches really do well is they make it much easier to notice a call or message in a loud environment. Before getting a smartwatch, you'd easily miss a call if your phone is in your pocket/bag and you are in a crowded/noisy space. You basically always notice if its a vibrating watch unless you have your hands on something vibrating.

But yes, largely the Apple Watch doesn't enable new activities. It just makes a whole lot of common ones easier and faster with less pulling you phone out.
Yeah, at some point Google may just straight up remove the Manifest v2 code from Chromium rather than just disable it. At that point it can get harder for Brave. Happened to them with eg. mobile slideshow tabs. Google disabled it, Brave kept the feature alive until Google removed it from the codebase.

This gives me visions of Need For Speed: Porsche Unleashed in the industrial zone.

Looking back at my younger self (who regularly drove 190+ kph to work on the freeway), I relish this idea.

But is there more to it? The night-time high speed driving, the office-before-others situation... is that not some unique sense of freedom or power? \

For me there is definitely magic in being a capable human in isolation with power to live and excel, especially when I know there will be other humans appearing later. Even at home remotely, there is a sense of power being in control of myself, my coffee-making, my news reading, and then optionally my meeting attendance...

For sports or fitness, simple metrics like HR band based training or distance measuring simply work in many cases and lead to measurable improvements in health or sporting ability over the course of a few months. Even before Apple watch came along, loads of cycling/running enthusiasts where taking advantage of metrics to train better via tools like GPS watches and ANT+ power meters. It works, if you apply yourself, and those devices couldn't even do calls or texts - thats frankly a bonus feature.

I used dedicated Garmin devices for years, Apple have packaged it up and made it so pretty much anyone can take advantage. While no one in the absolute needs an Apple watch to lose weight or get fitter, for some people it works, so have at it, frankly. Friendly competition on strava.com has been great motivator for me at times in my life over the last decade - devices like apple watch are gateway to that world.
Generally good advice here, even if packaged in a slightly preachy form.
> I'm actually not quite so sure about this. Admittedly, as a lifelong member of the waiters, I find "interrupt culture" incredibly frustrating. But I also think there's a framework by which we can establish interrupt culture as ostensibly more rude, even if that's the custom you're used to and expect.

I think you can definitely make this argument, and it will establish, conveniently, that everyone should do things our way. But then interrupters can make an argument about how, if only we could all agree to do things their way, then things would be so efficient, and no-one would need to waste time waiting for someone else to finish up a sentence whose content they've already guessed, or that they can already tell will be irrelevant to the discussion at hand, or … well, whatever the argument is. Of course, I find your argument more persuasive than the interrupters’; but … well, I would, wouldn't I? If it just so happens that the answer to a vexing societal question is for people to realize that I'm right and do things my way, then I have to become suspicious of whether I'm really arguing as logically as I think I am.
