Eh, this is a mission being launched by the same Chinese state that's being protested. Apollo-era aerospace history commonly touches on the concurrent civil rights movement because they had a common political nexus.

Also, to the extent there is non-technical commentary in the top comments on this thread, it's yours.
I hate veggie patties and feel like they were always the frost-bitten-back-of-the-freezer-kept-around-in-case-a-vegetarian-one-day-visits option that a restaurant falls back on. Not a vegetarian any more, but I don't think in the years that I was that I ever ate an enjoyable veggie pattie. As you said, it's 100% matter of taste so there's no right or wrong, but the opposing viewpoints are fascinating...

Forking perfectly functional browser-based web app into Electron apps is an irritating trend with very limited benefits. Some apps exist as Electron apps because they require native OS access, this app does not, therefore there is no reason to do so.

Porting to Electron would be trivial but in doing so you incur the following ramifications:

- the user has yet another instance of Chromium running on their device.

- they can't interact with browser based UIs easily any longer (bookmarking, retaining in history, copying the URL, different cookie/login jars, etc...).

- might fragment the users workflow even more if they have to interleave between electron apps and their browser

- lack of user extensions and some important accessibility features

In Chrome you can create a shortcut for the page and select "open in a new window" which by-in-large emulates the workflow you request. I'm sure there's a similar process for Firefox.
oh ok so now instead of 1 immutable bit that can be cached forever we have to store an id. Good news, instead of a wonderfully compressable bitmap you now have a bunch of uncompressable 128bit nullable uuids. Only a few thousand times less efficient!

Oh and of course you now have a linked list structure you have to traverse every time you want to resolve a tweet. Cool.

It's almost like this is hard.
Please teach me how I can get YouTube to stop showing me videos about cars and food reactions. And American local news channels.

Dislike button does nothing.

Hide because I don’t like this video option does nothing. It hides that video and keeps recommending competing channels on the same topic.

Don’t recommend channel button blocks the channel so that three more competing channels on the same topic take its place
Also Whatsapp and iMessages and Telegram too? /s

Really satisfying, foodie-quality meals can exist without meat or fake meat.

From a blind taste and smell perspective, animal flesh on a grill is very hard to beat. But if one wants to avoid eating animals, it is possible to do so very happily without resorting to manufactured creations that resemble meat.

Unfortunately, good creative vegetarian meals do take more work than throwing a nice steak on a grill. It seems that humans have a predisposition for appreciating hot animal fat with something to chew on.

All this is to say that we don't need fake meat. But it takes more effort and work, especially at first. Once the ingredients and skills are in place, however, vegetarial dishes can be more satisfying than typical meat dishes.

We should not be wasting business effort to provide fake something, but instead we should be working to teach good alternatives.

I think the reason we are in this situation is that companies need to sell things. Selling cooking lessons (good vegetarian cooking recipes and skills) is not as easy as pushing to the grocery store a plastic container with something resembling a hamburger patty.
I have not read the book or even looked at it. As far as I know the only code bases I think as important are:

PGP: The code could be printed on a t-shirt and allowed communication that was hard to break.

Lossy-Compression: In the 1970s and early 1980s a lot of the work was on lossless compression, but the move to lossy compression made Sound and Video files small enough to move around.

Chaos Theory: Applied to weather forecasting and other complex systems.

Deep Learning: I do not understand it but it lets data that could not be processed before.

What else should I add?
I don't see anyone mention affiliate links when talking about the indie/old web. Affiliate links were such a crucial element to the early web 'surfing' experience. It's a pretty shitty web without those affiliate links, IMO, and the only means of discovery is generally through some giant platform.

Plant based meats are full of sodium and chemicals. Now, I’m not saying real meat isn’t; most places stuff meats full of antibiotics etc.

If I had to choose one or the other, real meat hands down. I just don’t eat meat that much, maybe twice a week now.

I’m looking forward to vat grown meats, but the aluminium foil hat person in me thinks it would be used as a carrier for other crap the government decides to throw in there.

Not school-issued ones, as my son and I discovered. He told me that the school had assigned a Chromebook to each student. I said: "Great, let's install Python on it."

Nope. Locked down like a crab's arse.

Sad. The Chromebook went under his bed, and came back out at the end of the school year when it had to be returned.
Although I applaud the goal (I browse away from twitter whenever the login popup appears) I think it's a bit funny that you need someone of geohot's calibre to remove a "feature" that most probably sits behind a single switch/condition somewhere.

Is this model suitable for smaller projects? What does the development side look like for maintaining so many parallel versions?
“10 minutes just works”
yes. I see what you're saying.

heads out into the street to start a fist fight
The battle between the "odds" and the "evens" was particularly fierce.
Mir and ISS were both up together and crewed for a brief time around 2000/2001 I believe.
Its very simple if you think about it. Can you think of other web services with the scale and popularity comparable to Twitter that run on much lower headcounts?

Go ahead and make a Twitter clone this weekend. There are plenty of tutorials. Then let's assume you go viral and now your little service needs to scale. Then the email and issues start to come in. Now you have to balance fixing bugs and tending to customer support. Oh, are you going to outsource all cloud services or hire a 200k+ a year SRE to scale it out? One wont be enough you will soon find out. Did yo do your research on compliance? Are you sure your app is legal in every country it serves? Pretty soon you have a team whose salaries + benefits are costing you several million dollars a year. And you only have 10 people.

I could go on and on. Yes, creating a twitter clone is trivial. Scaling it and tending to real customers is a completely different story.
I think at least forking and hosting it yourself if a good middle ground between forking into an Electron app.

Who wants a tool they rely on to one day update with spyware, HTTP 404, or filled with ads (like Toptal did with keycode.info)?
I could see a tool like this being really useful on my web game projects, where I would like artists/animators making contributions.
Spaces are ignored (except to separate things where other syntactical things like * or , aren't present), and * binds to the variable on the right, not the type on the left. I actually got this wrong in an online test, but I screenshotted every question so I could go over them later (! I admit, a dirty trick but I learned things like this from it, though I still did well enough on the test to get the interview).

int*x,y; // x is pointer to int, y is int.

int x,*y; // x is int, y is pointer to int

And the reason I got it wrong on the test is it had been MANY years since I defined more than one variable in a statement (one variable defined per line is wordier but much cleaner), so if I ever knew this rule before, I had forgotten it over time.

I keep wanting to use slash-star comments, but I recall // is comment-to-end-of-line in C99 and later, something picked up from its earlier use in C++.

Oh yeah, C99 has become the de-facto "official" C language, regardless of more recent changes/improvements, as not all newer changes have made it into newer compilers, and most code written since 1999 seems to follow the C99 standard. I recall gcc and many other compilers have some option to specify which standard to use for compiling.

Yes, I have seen. Most of them barely do anything worthwhile. It’s like publishing an entire book in title sized fonts.
> the west likes to exaggerate everything that's happening in foreign countries

Chinese living in China here. I don't see any western involvement.

There were protests in almost every tier-1 and tier-2 cities in China during the last few days. This is totally unheard of since the Tiananmen Square incident back in 1989. Police were ordered to randomly stop people to search their phones, they want to see whether you are part of wechat groups discussing the ongoing protests. Here in Shanghai, they even had the street nameplate removed because it contains the word Urumqi, which is the name of the city where 10 people who were locked up at home for zero-covid crap were burned to death due to a fire accident.

3 full years after the outbreak of the COVID, enough is enough, you just can't treat people like crap forever just because there are COVID.
Building UIs with coordinates is hard and effortful. Because of this, you have no time to make it slow.

Building the same UI declaratively is much easier. And a simple UI is fast. But because it was so easy to make it, now you have extra development time to make it slower (by adding extra features).
Apologies, I think I used "health" in a misleading way.

My intention was not to suggest meat substitutes are strictly better than meat for losing weight, or reducing heart disease, general public health advice (I am not qualified to even make those comments!).

The scope I was hoping to address was situations where an individual needs to replace meat for their specific dietary requirements. In this case, meat substitutes may be useful if, say, there is something in meat causing inflammation for the individual.

This is largely "what-if" though, and would probably require a doctor's consult to confirm.
It's not FUD. They used 2FA to reset his coinbase password, then accessed it as him and drained the account.

On top of that they drained his bank account (also using 2FA) into the coinbase account, then drained that too. Coinbase has (or had at the time) elevated levels of trust that they just gave him, which allowed the hacker to immediately buy crypto with transferred funds. Then the hacker just transferred the crypto to another wallet.
Can you give an example of this mode of failure? I've never heard of this. Ever. The worst I saw on a YT channel recently (JustRolledIn) was a booster that exploded from a backfire. But never have I heard of one failing in such a way that it sucked the fluid right out of the (sealed) master cylinder.

Now, could a master cylinder and a brake booster fail this way? I suppose if the brake booster was already failed and leaked vacuum at the booster/cylinder interface, and then the master cylinder seal at the main plunger also failed, that this could happen. But I don't see one causing the other.
Where I live in Australia, Coles has a vegan mince option that is pretty excellent. It requires longer to cook though, but it works brilliantly in chilli and pasta. $7.50 AUD for half a kilogram (and $4-5 on special), which is close enough to the price (and sometimes cheaper!) for real beef mince that I'm happy to use it regularly (as a vegan). It doesn't taste identical, but its close enough that my vegan partner who has been vegan for over a decade dislikes the smell haha

The trick is you must add a fair bit of olive oil to the pan, as it does not have the same fat content actual mince does. Once you do, it tastes brilliant in the dishes I'd use it for, with the seasoning and such we use.

"The United States federal government spends $38 billion every year subsidizing the meat and dairy industries. Research from 2015 shows this subsidization reduces the price of Big Macs from $13 to $5 and the price of a pound of hamburger meat from $30 to the $5 we see today."

As someone who has been in both tech IC (individual contributor) and higher management levels, this is often a relatively simple result of impedance mismatch (excluding bad faith individuals for now):

ICs and lower level managers are all about inputs and outputs, blocking and tackling, getting shit done.

At the higher management levels it is all about setting direction, setting the "tone", "getting the culture right".

There is just so little concerns that intersect between these groups, that communication becomes a challenge.

Fantastic! It's a perfect translation of my recent conversation with Comcast customer service, except that Comcast told me that they were working on upgrading the network in the neighboring area, and, as a gesture of good faith and apology, offered me a "discount" on upgrading my internet to 1.2 Gbps for a mere $120. They only needed me to say "yes".
Crysties!
Our current pipelines of CAFOs and the majority of crops being dedicated for livestock and methane pollution is not acceptable, however. It's not possible to significantly improve the efficiency of the fundamentally inefficient process of growing plants to feed animals before feeding ourselves.
Actually, today the quickest way is to start with a digital camera, but the caveat is that you must have discipline not to fall into the technography trap.
Technography is not photography.

I can take a photo without a light meter.
Zone focusing and the zone system are a thing, even today.

https://petapixel.com/sunny-16-rule/

The idea behind making things hard for yourself is to develop a discipline and way of seeing the world without assistance. When you get this superpower, you will use the digital aids in a completely different manner.

The instant feedback is so bad for the development of photographers mind, that some brands like Leica and Fujifilm have a digital camera without screen on their back.

P.S. Not every debate is a generational war. I have learned plenty from the young, but in my view ignoring the knowledge of the past is not a good thing. In photography and the arts in genereal, slowing down is a feature, not a bug.:)
I always encourage people to compare internet with water, electricity, sewage, gas and roads. These other networks are by comparison 1) incredibly expensive to build and 2) expensive to maintain and 3) incredibly cheap to use.

What is an ISP but a bunch of tiny switch boxes?

We can see it costs nothing to set up or maintain in how prices scale with purchase power:

At some point law makers should move in? I think the above proposal should make a good excuse for merciless price regulation.
> In your "unsafe" example in Rust, you still don't get undefined behavior.

You get an unexpected behaviour instead. For example, imagine if you had a device for counting amount of bytes transferred over the network. If the counter overflows, you will get the wrong number, and issue an invalid bill to the customer. While that is a "defined" behaviour that is not what one expects.

I expect the counter either to work correctly according to normal math rules or indicate that it cannot perform the task due to hardware limitations.

One might blame the developer but history shows that developers fail to take account of overflow. For example, experienced developers writing Linux kernel made several mistakes, which lead to security vulnerabilities.

In most cases developers need standard math, not operations modulo 2^32 or 2^64. When you count bytes, you need an exact amount, not an amount modulo 2^32. Why do language designers provide modulo operations instead of normal math I don't understand.

Rust has chosen a weird path when the program works differently in debug and release mode. This is clearly wrong. I expect the same program to work the same way no matter whether optimizations are enabled or not.

Low Latency Optimization: Understanding Pages (Part 1)
The first time that Soviet and American spacemen were in space at the same time was Skylab SL-4 (space station) and the Soviet Soyuz 13, which never docked with a space station. This was the final flight to Skylab, and that crew left before the follow-on Soyuz 14 docked with Salyut 3, so at no point during the US-Soviet space race were there two separately crewed space stations in orbit.

But just as a pedantic note, I really object to calling this China's first space station. The Tiangong-1 and Tiangong-2 both were just as much a space station as Skylab or a Salyut[1]. The current Tiangong is indeed the first complex, ISS like space-station, of multiple components launched separately, but that's not the same thing as a space station. So I would say that the three previous Chinese flights to Tiangong-1 and -2 (Shenzhou-9, Shenzhou-10, and Shenzhou-11) all should count as the first times that there were two separately crewed space stations in orbit. Obviously, the other station in all three cases was the International Space Station program, which has had people in space continuously since November 1st, 2000 (it is my hope and dream that October 31st of the year 2000 becomes a very important day in human history- that last day that all of humanity was together on the same planet).

[1]: Technically two separate programs, the military OPS and the Civilian DOS programs, but both were the same as far as assembly goes: launched in one piece from a heavy lift rocket.
It's got the same issue as tabletop simulator in that it's using the physics engine to sim everything. This would work well except you're using a mouse to interact with the game pieces and this feels clunky and you end up hitting other game pieces. This needs a way to set it so game pieces can set the collision group they belong to. That way for chess you can just move the chess piece without knocking over everything.

Good news is it's open source and Godot based so it shouldn't be hard to add this to the codebase.
Browsers should make it easier to interact with the command line then. I want to be able to run a command and it opens the result in a browser tab.
Note that this is very similar to the way modules were relocated on Mir.

The only tempeh I like personally is when we make our own using the Okara left over from making our own tofu -- that tastes fantastic fresh. I've never enjoyed eating the store bought stuff, even from the amazing Asian grocery stores here.
> a nice veggie patty with peas, corn and stuff is great.

That's irrelevant - someone who is in the mood for a meat patty burger won't be happy with a veggie patty no matter how great it tastes, unless it tastes like meat.

There's tons of comments here saying how nice veggie patties can be[1], but none of the posters saying this have the self-awareness to realise that the taste of veggie patties are irrelevant if they don't taste like meat to people who want a meaty taste.

[1] I agree, they can be very nice, and when I'm in the mood for one, I choose it.
You just don’t get it
The assumed context was the article, which specifically states it’s about Asians living in the West. I wasn’t assuming the West is the only culture that matters, just that the West was the specific culture under discussion. When it comes to what’s okay to fly in America, I think it’s fine to say “no swastikas or reversed swastikas”.

Interestingly enough, when I want the compartmentalization experience that comes from an “App” on macOS, I turn to… Microsoft Edge. Edge has a nifty little feature that lets you “Appify” a website. I mostly find this useful for company-required PWAs, and most-of-all, Microsoft Teams. The Edge-“Appified” MS Teams on macOS is leaps and bounds more performant than the “Native” (Electron) MS Teams apps on macOS (consumes ~25MB of mem vs ~800MB). Has the nice benefit of your “Apps” being a Command-Space away.
