Very little people are advocating that WFH doesn't work better for focus work of clear and specced tasks.

However, in my experience that is maybe 30-90% of software engineering, depending on environment, role and seniority. There are lots of relevant activities that are more challenging remotely, such as 1-on-1 mentoring, pairing for debugging or programming, or designing and collaborating a project or interface across-teams. Maybe you are "lucky" enough to never have to bother with that.

I think this is the end of fully centralised exchanges. All exchanges will have to build their own Validium and customers will self custody their non fiat funds on that Validium and the centralised exchange merely runs the order book logic and fiat onramp.

What about more than one site? Web is a complex thing.

You have fronted, backend, UI, database and infrastructure layers at least.

Rather than searching for a resource to cover all poorly, I would focus on a resource that covers each.

You can search Pluralsight, Udemy and Amazon for good tutorials books for: HTML, CSS, Javascript, a fronted framework (I like Vue because it seems more sane), a language for the backend (C#, Java, Go etc.) a framework for the backend, infrastructure (bare metal, VM, Kubernetes, cloud Docker etc).

These would be the bare minimum to get started as just the system design is a complex thing which you can't master with just one book.

Since you deal with complex topics there isn't any book or tutorial that can cover all at a decent level.
“GNU/Linux” is simply a subset of “Linux” tbh
Therefore “Linux” is always correct where “GNU/Linux” is, but not vice-versa.
In contrast: Mastodon and Pleroma, PeerTube, etc. are simply elements of the same set.

Nah, it was a money grab by registries and ICANN. They marketed this to anyone and everyone, promising it was the future.

I happened to work for a registry at the time, and remember getting bizarre calls from places like doctor's offices and such inquiring about some email/flyer/call they got. I was honest with them, at least.
Having re-read the article, i must say that this is another incorrect claim. It proposes no such thing. This is one straw man after another.

Since WhatsApp sends binaries (images, documents like PDFs, probably Zip files as well), I wonder if this proxy also encodes the data as binaries. It recompresses JPEGs though, although there is an option to turn that off, and in any case the recompression probably happens client (sender) side.

From wiki:
> Memory safety is the state of being protected from various software bugs and security vulnerabilities when dealing with memory access, such as buffer overflows and dangling pointers

Dart has isolates, so I thought it was memory-safe.
But searching for buffer overflow or dangling pointer on dart's github repo returns results, so I'm still left wondering.

Germany has a different setup than most EU countries: one can be insured privately or publicly.

Public insurance costs are based on income. Private insurance costs are based on health/age etc.

Moving from private insurance to public is almost impossible, as far as I know.

To give you an idea, I recently switched to private insurance and cut my monthly cost by 50%.

I still don't buy the part that there is not much to worry.

The thing you call "thin copyright" is still copyright. Being protected or not is in the end a binary judgment: If your stuff is "a little bit" protected it is actually fully protected—with all consequences that follow from that.

Also, alone the "assumption" of the highest US court that APIs are protected is a very strong signal. They could just have ruled that there is no protection at all; case closed. But they preferred to go for a weasel solution. This has reasons… They deliberately didn't open up the door for API freedom. (Most likely to still be able wield that weapon against foreign concurrency should they feel like that some day).

The point is: IP law is completely crazy. The smallest brain-farts are routinely protected.

The exceptions to this rule are actually stronger in civil law, but still even in the EU single words or sub-second audio samples are protected by default. (Regarding APIs the situation is better though: It's legal to reverse engineer something for e.g. compatibility, and a few other reasons; but that are explicit exceptions. The default is that almost every expression of even the slightest form of human "creativity" is copyrighted; the bar is extremely low; and gets actually pushed constantly lower and lower by common law influence).

So on both sides of the Atlantic the default is that every single line of code is protected. There is nothing like a lower bound in size. Than, form there, you could try to argue that there should be an exception from this protection in some particular case, e.g. there was no "creativity" at all involved. But you will need to win a—often very hard, expensive, and ridiculously long—fight over that issue, and wining that is nothing like a sure thing; the default is that just everything is protected to the max. (Just have a look at all the craziness around news headlines in the EU; Google lost that case back than; to understand this better, as this may be very surprising to US people: civil law does not recognize anything like "fair use"; there are exceptions of copyright protection that have in the end almost the same effect, like grants for libraries or educational purposes, but those exceptions, and their limitations, are listed explicitly in the law; if no exception is listed there just isn't one, and only the very vague "creativity bar" remains).

Regarding Copilot: It makes not much difference whether this machine spits out some verbatim copies of (clearly copyrighted!) snippets or some "remix" thereof. There is no "novel" code if at best all what this machine does is creating "remixes" of the code it has in its database based on the query given. (Its "knowledge base" is nothing else than a very funky database; technical details regarding the actual implementation of that database or its query system should not matter legally).

Before this comes up again: No, any comparisons to how humans learn are irrelevant in this consideration. That machine is not a human. It's a machine. End of story. So even if you consider also a human brain a kind of "funky database" this makes no difference.
Rounding the corners of things.

Imagine a perfect cube. The edges will be very, very sharp, and this is bad for any number of obvious reasons. To fillet the edges is to round them off: now the cube is much easier to handle. These are "outside" fillets, and you could perhaps make them with a router bit. There are also "inside" fillets (say you "drilled" a perfectly cylindrical hole partway into the cube; an inside fillet would be along the circular bottom edge of the hole), which can't be made after the fact (to do so would involve adding material). The geometry only gets more complex from there: most things aren't cubes or cylinders! Fillets are at once extremely simple, extremely complicated, and extremely important.

They are siblings to chamfers, which are the same idea but instead of being round just involve breaking the edge. You could chamfer the edge on that hypothetical cube with a single touch from a sander or (big) file. Fillets require more care.
Beanie babies, tulips, German marks from 1920s at least have some physical properties just like shells.

If you have 100,000 cryptocurrency tokens worth 0, that presumably means there is no activity (no transactions, no validations, no mining).

I suppose one could set up a few validators and attempt to restart the chain.

The problem is that for many worthless coins that no one wants to mine, the difficulty is too high to restart.

So that leaves forking the chain with lower difficulty requirements, which is just as pointless.

We could also use this energy for better things than Bitcoin.

And while BTC doesn't make any value besides moving money from one person to another, it also produces hardware garbage like ASIC chips and power supply.

It also steals demand from others too.

There is only downside for most of us than benefit of allowing Bitcoin mining independent of it's source.

Who will be in charge of deciding which transactions need to be reversed and when? It seems to me that the ability to have reversible transactions is at odds with the descentralised nature of blockchains.
Pretty much everyone in the crypto community would be fine and happy if exchanges were forced to prove they own the users funds. Crypto people generally don't want crypto regulation. But exchanges are not crypto. They are a third party holding your crypto.

The problem is that regulators "confuse" that (or pretend to) and any regulation that comes out hurts the users, and the DeFi space, instead of focusing on centralized business like FTX that are outright stealing users funds.

Also what FTX did is without a doubt already illegal, it's not like it's some kind of loophole or legal thing they did.
The taxes I mentioned are part of the cost of running an office - especially local government taxes ("rates" in UK parlance).

Your hate towards nodejs/react is making you blind to opportunities.
I work with go for years but never used a fw. At the beginning when i came from php, i looked for fw because that was how things were done. But once i let go of that idea and started making things by hand i never looked back. Go really does not need a framework. Sooner or later it starts to limit you. For example i used grpc a lot in the past but came to realize it was hindrance and now i just use proto files to define schemas and generate the structs but that's is all it does. Everything else is hand-made. I even moved away from SQL abstraction and just use sql and directly. Again, sooner or later there will be some limitation that will bother you and so it is just not worth it. And being able to tailor-made every part of the application for its desired purpose is priceless.

If many people in this space are advocating for decentralized exchanges, how come everyone uses centralized ones?

If there's ever a time and place for voting with your wallet, this seems to be it, and the wallets are speaking loudly and clearly.
This looks amazing. I will be recommending from now on to people who want to learn web dev. Thanks for sharing!

Side note: As a Ruby on Rails developer, it's amazing to see so many Rails-based recommendations to the question "how to learn boring web dev?". This is exactly what Rails (and Ruby) is great at. Just get shit done quickly without the shiny things.
> Apparently that engine is written in something called Haxe and its multi-platform.

Haxe is interesting. I remember coming across it back in the days of Flash.

They also had a bytecode VM of their own called Neko.

At the time when I heard of it there were three platforms you could target with Haxe: JavaScript, Flash, and Neko.

It’s pretty cool to see that after all these years Haxe is still alive and in use.

Bitcoin fees are often not cheap at all.

Just a week ago someone got cought and the fbi took his 3 billion dollar worth of BTC.

Sending crypto to someone in Iran or Russia is against the law independent of how you do it.

And just because you can send BTC to Iran someone in Iran also needs to exchange it to something real again.

While banking is more restrictive, when you go to your bank with your passport, you actually can recover your account. I know someone who lost 10k because he lost his key.

For most people it's saver and easier and they are not affected and don't care about all those BTC/crypto benefits at all

Ymmv, but for me work from office is far more productive than from home. It also allows a very effective context switch so you don't feel like working when you are at home.
>If it's an instance level ban, then you can vote with your feet by migrating to a new instance.

That's the part that interests me the most.

Which is why I (when I get around to it) will self-host my own ActivityPub instance (Mastodon? Pleroma? WriteFreely?).

That way, I decide what gets blocked and what doesn't. And since it's federated (assuming other sites will federate with me), I can still access the benefits of using fediverse resources, without being beholden to someone else to make such decisions for me.

From a longer-term perspective, ISTM that an ActiviyPub (AP) "user agent server" (UAS) which allowed individual users to federate with the resources of their choosing without having to "join" an extant instance, makes a lot of sense.

Rather the UAS would utilize your local (i.e., generated and managed/federated from your AP UAS instance) fediverse credentials and act as a proxy for you, communicating with the instances containing the resources you're interacting with and acting as storage/cache/server for the user's client apps.

This would make the fediverse even more decentralized and under user control. However, it would also make discoverability even harder.

Perhaps that's ActivityPub's killer app? A discovery app. Perhaps a protocol change to require a cryptographically signed summary/intro for each instance, along with with a searchable index?
Not since Project Treble they're not.

The more pressing issue is that bootloader unlocking isn't as ubiquitous as one might like.

Crypto obviously has its disadvantages, hacks being one. There could be major UX improvements to crypto that would aid in reducing hacks and increasing security.

But either way, it's a tradeoff and that's fine. TradFi is reversible and centralized, crypto is not. Sometimes you want one thing, sometimes you want the other.

I agree with you that it's a bad analogy. But to be fair, all-you-can-eat buffets are not really all-you-can-eat, and will kick you out if you try to consume more than what they calculated a regular consumer does. All service providers do this when they falsely advertise "unlimited" anything.

Where ISPs cross the line is by trying to also enforce _how_ I can consume the data I'm paying for. Having plans that restrict tethering is consumer-hostile, plain and simple. Whether I'm tethering or not has no relation to how much data I consume. They can continue to restrict bandwidth and data limits if I go overboard, but I'll be damned if I allow them to tell me how I can use it.

So if we're going with the buffet analogy, then it's like them saying I can only use a fork to eat, as someone mentioned above.

I'm not aware of exactly what you're looking for, but I think such a resource would be very valuable. Unfortunately, modern web development has almost completely eschewed simplicity. I can offer some leads, though.

This is more of a manifesto but there is a small movement around simplicity at https://grugbrain.dev/ which is written by the guy behind https://htmx.org/ -- a nice little way to add the bare minimum JS needed for a 'modern' app. You can find a community of likeminded people at HTMX-adjacent places like their Discord and Twitter. I've also been an advocate of this kind of 'primitive' dev style and it's great to see it gain some popularity.

This recent talk from Djangocon "React to htmx on a real-world SaaS product" might be of interest: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GObi93tjZI

Ironically, the ultra-modern serverless platforms such as Cloudflare Workers have strict size constraints which is leading to a kind of back-to-basics approach that minimizes dependencies and bundle size. You can find a lot of small libraries for this at https://workers.tools/. The latest JS framework to buzz here, Deno's Fresh, even touts "no JS is shipped to the client by default". We can see there is a resurgence of interest in server-side rendering.

The classics such as Rails are still alive and kicking. Phoenix seems to be a promising candidate for "the modern Rails".

As someone who experienced the Good Old Days of web development, I would recommend at least trying out the managed cloud services for things like databases and cron jobs and deployments. IMO, it's a lot easier to use them than manage it yourself. And with the new serverless stuff, we're actually pretty close to how CGI on shared hosting used to be where you could upload a script and not have to worry about the gory details so much.
Perhaps look for web development books published around 2010-2012, before the large JS frameworks gained a major foothold. These will be missing some of the very valuable and useful developments in CSS and JavaScript (e.g. grid layout and promises) but for the other topics much of their content will still be relevant.
