I guess it depends on the country? In Germany (and a couple of other countries that I know of), the owners of a company are public.
I'm glad to see all the designers on here really hate tailwind. I hope they persuade my competitors not to use it.

I've been writing CSS since IE 5.5 and I was tired of the whole horrible mess. Tailwind goes against everything I learned about the reasoning and benefits of CSS' styled web page design. Tailwind is right. Tailwind is how CSS should have been.

I (and more importantly my customers) do no care about minor differences in padding, or that the markup looks ugly, or that it takes a few extra minutes to parse the git commit (made up for by massive time savings elsewhere). Tailwind gives you a quick way to get a design that looks good enough while maintaining control over the layout of the page.

Need something custom? No one is stopping you from writing your own classes to compliment the utility classes or from moving common combinations of utility classes into their own class.
Probably for the best, money thrown at Beto was set alight anyway. As was money thrown at Stacy Abrams.
Did you?

Just the other day I had someone assume I was the husband of a woman I was helping out, I certainly didn't think that was enough to make judgements, nor did I feel the need to correct them.

If someone making an innocuous assumption is enough to for you to determine they're a prick, maybe you're the prick?
I still disagree with you, boring is in the eye of the beholder not in the object itself.

Pinball machines may have many more elements to them, they may be more eye catching, but to somebody who doesnt enjoy playing pinball at all it's still incredibly boring to them. Someone who enjoys it probably isn't finding it boring, or at least not more boring than doing nothing.

Yes football has more actual playing time and takes 90 (well, closer to 110 after half time and added time) minutes compared to baseball's often hours, yes footballers walk/run an average of 3-4x further in a game on average than baseball players.... and yes, some baseball fans will think football is less boring (I'm one of them! I like baseball but far less than football)..., but to somebody who loves baseball and hates football, football is the more boring one. And they're not wrong, nor am I for thinking baseball is more boring. It's just subjective.

Your comparison for "most boring" really only applies to somehow who has a quick look at both things, maybe in an art gallery, then moves on having found one of them less boring than the other. Not to people who actually played and enjoyed one or both of them.
Perhaps I am revealing my age, but the common narrative from the old times is that involuntary hospitalization was once common in America. This took the form of sanitariums, which in popular media now have a horrible reputation. Sometime around the 70s and 80s this system was dismantled for financial and legal reasons. Is this how those who lived this period see it? That we took a flawed system and replaced it with street anarchy?
keyd is a really nice key remapping daemon that supports application-specific remappings. You could use it to emulate readline bindings in Chrome. Or if you can't figure out how to emulate something, at least bind it to noop so it doesn't mess you up any more.

If NYC can pull this off, I wonder what has been stopping it and all the other US cities for all these years.
As another commenter said, fzf is the way to go.
With the exception of Finnegans Wake I don't think that's true at all. Dubliners and A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man are both fairly conventional books, nothing wildly different from the books that had come before. Ulysses, while very dense and difficult, is not incomprehensible. You don't have to understand every literary reference to appreciate the sheer mastery of language in that book. Finnegans Wake... well that's a bit different, I think probably one in a hundred people who finished Ulysses got to the end of that one. It's better suited to reading a random page or two at a time than reading from start to finish.

This guy wrote several books on formal methods. Not only does he know why people like static types, he works to encourage people to adopt more advanced forms of static analysis.
Those sounds have the opposite effect on me: they make me feel uncomfortable. They remind me that there's an unknowable amount of life all around me, causing an uncomfortable uncertainty. Being in an actual forest is extremely uncomfortable due to climate, dirtiness, uneven terrain, animals, insects...

No thanks. As a parent, I am well aware of the risks of unintended consequences from drastic collective action by government or industry. I'll take the burden. Leave me out in the cold.
True but this is likely less engaging for the audience, which has been my experience.
Let's say your premise is granted. So in this hypothetical, courts are going to become moderation organizations for online content, in addition to their usual responsibilities?
We merged them hither since the OP was the original post.
It's interesting that microkernels didn't "win" at the OS layer, but they kind of seem to have "won" one layer down.

If it didn't hide any of complexity you'd be writing CSS.
>Pfizer recent admitted they didn’t ever bother testing to see if the vaccine prevented transmission.

Claiming they only admitted it "recently" is intentionally misleading. They said it plainly when it was released, because there wasn't any time to test it. That's part of why it was called emergency authorization. Later research gave significant evidence that it did significantly reduce transmission.

Certainly meat tends to have much higher fat and protein density, and hence calorific density than vegetables, but the latter invariably have higher carbohydrate content (meat is essentially 0). Multigrain bread can have much the same calorific density as beef, and nuts are often considerably higher (admittedly, they're typically quite pricey per kg, though not more so than quality cuts of meat).
I've personally not observed any significant difference in the quantity of food I eat between vegan/ vegetarian/meat-based meals, though I very rarely eat meals that meat makes up more than a small percentage of. It's actually the micronutrients you need to be more aware of if you're on a strictly vegan diet, which are unlikely to make a difference in food cost (e.g. B12 supplements are about $9 for a gram, but that can last you months).
Ugh. This “zero knowledge encryption” is NOT zpf. Just a per user PBE hiding a shared symmetric key.

I kept reading, trying to find the innovative way of encrypting large amount of data while not revealing the same key to all participant - some SSS variant or fast FHE or maybe a cool new PRE.

Also, all value added features besides shipping the bytes are gone when something like this is in effect. Search, preview, co-edit, metadata extraction.

I guess I’m disappointed / venting because of crushed hopes. I’m in this field and hoped something new and exciting is starting. Not trying to criticize the engineering work, which looks quite well done, just sad there isn’t new algorithmic development.
> Stop being unreasonably pedantic about my own words.

I'm taking your words at face value, you can communicate more clearly but it is your choice to do so.
Law, policy, directive, order, emergency action, etc.

All boils down to “government is doing something with force of law” and is reviewable by SCOTUS.
There's still the "System Volume Information" folder. Whatever that is. (I use Linux, but see it on USB drives that where plugged into Windows machines.)
> If your boycott makes your services more expensive, then you're less likely to receive the contract, but it would still be your choice.

The cheapest bid might be even cheaper absent the boycott. I, and plenty of other people, don't want to pay this premium because of a company's political agenda. Fulfill the contract with the most efficient supplies on the market, or don't both bidding at all.

Without federal action for adequate funding for adequate mental healthcare providers nationwide, I do not see what other choice any state/county/city in the US could have.

Same with healthcare or housing or any other population wide benefit policy where benefit recipients can migrate in and net payers into the system can migrate out.
I've said the same but I got flagged on hacker news for saying it. I'm not quite sure why it's an objectionable thing to say.
I truly don't understand how this is legal. They can just call someone "too" mentally ill and lock them up?
While the tone is a bit too negative (expected of someone leaving one place for “greener grass”), there are terrific points here that completely resonate with my own experience in data science - albeit not at a “median” place, but at a large non-Tech corp.

The biggest point I’d emphasize:
“there is a general industry-wide need for people who are good at both data science and coding to oversee firms’ data science practices in a technical capacity.”

Even more, most of the data tech leaders I hear strongly suggest this is not possible without C-suite representation of a data/engineer expert (I’m talking about non-tech companies)

Finally, it’s actually not uncommon to see people shift from data science to data engineering due to similar motivations. It’s actually the technical leadership that is sometimes surprised at the shift. You hear about this in podcasts from DS/DE people.
If it's 13+ that would work if the minimum age for these platforms is also 13+. It's certainly not perfect, but if implemented, it would probably not be the only way to verify your age (or it might if credit card companies are smart and pay the platforms).

Germany has similar simple ways to provide pseudo-verification, e.g. they'll use direct-deposit or direct-debit to transfer a cent or three and put a code in the subject field that you'll need to enter. It's not perfect, and they wouldn't even know who you are, since account numbers aren't tied to names, but it proves (sufficiently for them to say "we really tried") that you are the account owner. While they don't know who you are, your bank has to because of KYC, and in case of trouble they could say "talk to the bank, they know who's hiding behind this username". Of course there are edge cases and ways around it, but it's enough that they get out of hot water.

I don't really have an opinion on whether age should be verified. I'm past most minimum ages and I don't have children, so I'm not affected.
We have an open-source React-based framework called "refine" for easily building CRUD apps like Admin panels and Internal tools. It is headless by default and supports Material UI, AntDesign, Chakra UI, and Mantine.

Why “Should” they?
Not all programs have a compile time (and for those that do, there's a one-to-many relationship between it and runtimes), but there's always a distinction between runtime and write-time. I do not see how one could write a program without having in mind specific semantics for each identifier you introduce, and if they have specific semantics, are they not at least implicitly typed, whether or not they are statically typed?

The author seems to want to use dynamic typing in a restricted manner, to help in testing and debugging and understanding a program, particularly within a REPL. Further down, he seems to be saying that the lack of empirical evidence on how this works in practice (on account of it rarely, if ever, being used in available tooling) seems to suggest it is difficult.

So, I think your first point is something that still works with coops, but you have more ownership, so you have a greater say in whether or not somebody pleasant stays or somebody efficient stays. I think either are possible outcomes in coops depending on who is there.

For your second point, maybe that's okay? I think you're right with the tribal nature of people -- so if teams disagree, maybe the org isn't healthy and it's time to form two healthy orgs as part of a codified severance that doesn't result in layoffs or bankruptcy. I think the reason they don't is its expensive and difficult because you have to hire lawyers to figure it out after something is wrong. If tribes are mature enough to disagree and coexist, I'd call that healthy and worthy of continuing if both sides value each other.

I'm not sure many orgs codify severance. Typically this is something that partnerships account for but not corporations - corporations just fire people.
I’m not necessarily disagreeing but I think often people evaluate the value on immediate results without considering the longer term effects of creating and growing a base.
Animals eat really cheaply compared to the produce humans eat. The real reason meat is more expensive than vegetables is simple supply and demand.
yep if I were a Bad Guy and had nation state resources I'd be salivating over trying to get "in" at JetBrains, GitHub and the like

You didn’t explain what the right answer is.
Homelessness (which often, but not always, goes hand in hand with mental illness) is an epidemic in NYC (as well as other cities) and should be treated as such.
Instead of waiting to build homes, which are shot down by the NIMBY folk or find more psych beds, cities need to take more aggressive measures. During the height of the pandemic, the Javits Center was going to essentially be used as a hospital. That level of thinking is going to be required to address the situation cities face today. Ships. Shipping containers (a la Qatar). Everything should be on the table. Combine this with security, aides, some level of nursing care and telemedicine psychiatry, with medication delivery.
It can be done. Requires the willpower to do it.

50 more psych beds won’t cut it.
See also Vanilla-Extract if you use TypeScript, it uses TS instead of SCSS to compile it down to pure CSS (I mentioned this in another comment as well, for reference).

I'm glad I finally see this being raised.

I don't know if I can make the claim that if a program behaves to spec, the types must be right (that seems like an academic statement out of my own wheelhouse). But I've always scratched my head at the canard of "static types saves time from obviating the need to write a whole class of type validation tests", that just doesn't map to my own experience.

I challenged my intuitions on this recently and checked out some of my existing unit tests suites to see what my type error coverage looked like. It was exceedingly rare that I was able to fine a behavior assertion which after introducing an intentional change to cause a type error, didn't blow up the test.

The cases where I did find type errors that snuck through with false negatives, the test itself was actually written poorly and the same behavior assertion would fail in other ways unrelated to types.

I'm sure there are situations (in my own stack and in other folks') where my above findings are contradicted but, given that static typing for something like JS is not in any way a zero-cost abstraction, I'm not sure it's really a net win.
> Mayor Eric Adams directed the police and emergency medical workers to hospitalize people they deemed too mentally ill to care for themselves

Huh. Every now and again, I'll think that I basically understand the broad strokes of the US political system reasonably well for someone who doesn't live there.

Then I learn that mayors can section people, which surely takes time away from core mayoral duties like opening supermarkets.
Been running a pi-hole for a few years now and have no complaints. It's the DNS server for my router, so everything on my network uses it. It's behind on updates though. I still need to enable SSH on my pi just so I can update the pi-hole (I believe it can only be done via SSH?). Been too lazy to bother hooking up a mouse/kb to the device again. I'll take this as a reminder that I should get on that.
Is it better when the governing class decides certain individuals or thoughts are evil and makes sure to cleanse them from the world? Could that cause harm to people, or is the government always right? How many innocents are you willing to see die and suffer for the sake of purging bad thoughts from society?
> Apart from anything else, it seems like the popular theories about politicians running paedophile rings came after the mainstream media revelations about very well connected socialite Jeffrey Epstein, not before.

They're hardly new. The QAnon/Pizzagate "adrenochrome" conspiracy theory is just the old Jewish blood libel with a slightly scifi modernization and a touch of the 80s Satanic panic.
Because the property of being wrong is not binary. It might be partly wrong but correct enough for your current situation.
You can check opencorporate for that info.
You presume that the program is able to determine that it is wrong.

One of the most annoying things moving from Ruby / Python into a language with static types that are checked at compile time is dealing with JSON from an external API.

I know, I know. The API could send me back a lone unicode snowman in the body of the response even if the Content-Type is set to JSON. I know that is theoretically possible.

But practically, the endpoint is going to send me back a moustache bracket blob. The "id" element is going to be an integer. The "first name" element is going to be a string.

Sometimes a disable-able warning is all we want.
> What possible advantage is there to be gained from any other choice?

You're thinking like a single individual. Almost all programming that happens in the real world is in teams, and most of that probably within companies.

Teams and especially companies often benefit from strict standards that keep everyone on the same page and make it harder to screw things up.
Yes. There is a lot of information on the manufacturing cost of EVs in terms of environmental footprints. One thing we know for sure is that mining resources from dead cars is far less resource intensive than mining resources from traditional resource extraction.

And you have to keep in mind that the carbon footprint of a traditional car is very well understood, and it is enormous. An efficient mid-size car will consume something like 12x its weight in gasoline, and harvesting that gasoline also has a carbon footprint.
As a lsp-mode users, why switch to eglot?
Let's not head down this direction of madness please.

I've followed Japanese vtubers for some time and that is CERTAINLY not the case. Vtubers are just aliases for the real person. And each person picks and chooses how much they blend their real lives into that alias.

There are even some vtubers that will have a camera facing on themselves while they stream as a vtuber (for example stream their body, but not their face) or will alternate streams between a vtuber persona and a real live camera or vtubers who stream as a vtuber but the real person behind the vtuber is an open secret (i.e. artists who engage in vtubing but sell artwork at comic conventions attending as a real person). There's a huge range and spectrum of ways people choose to do vtubing.

(Note: A lot of the latter cases are more possible in Japan because of the general social/legal concept there that taking pictures of people without their permission is at least extremely rude and sometimes also illegal if you don't blur their face when publishing it. This is helped by the fact that it's a legal requirement that all devices capable of taking photographs must make a photographing noise when doing so. For example on iPhone in Japan it is impossible to silence the shutter sound effect without modifying the device hardware.)

I'm not sure what you mean: All directors, shareholders and accounts are publicly available on the Companies House website.
Interesting. It's public information in India which I thought would have inherited from the UK.
I guess these are the reasons I was looking for. Thanks for taking the time to deal with my noob question. Upvoted!

My next question is that why isn't it possible to agree to a standard presentation of prose and equations for HTML5 which mirrors a clean PDF-style presentation as much as possible (as is done with LateX), but I guess the answer to that is within that xkcd comic about standards.
I have a dead simple backup plan that is basically free.

All my essential, must have info is stored on two 128GB microSD cards. One lives in a safe at home. The other I strap to my wrist. The cards are encrypted with BitLocker. A few trusted others have the decrypt/safe key.

The data is as safe as I am --- if not safer. If something does go bump in the night, all I have to worry about is my own personal safety. Even if I die unexpectedly in an accident, search and rescue will still likely deliver the data to my next of kin.

Let's face it --- no one is going to organize a search party if your on-line backup suddenly disappears or is being held hostage for "egress fees".

Buffet wants investments, when Bitcoin is meant to be a low-time-preference store of value.

And of course, central planners and standard economists, Buffet's buds, are all high-time-preference and that's why the economy is an instant-gratification consumerist junk hellscape.
By having a style guide with variants, StitchesJS pioneered this but there are others like Vanilla-Extract. With TypeScript, you can then enforce that only a certain variant can be used with a certain component at compile time, basically making sure that your design style guide gets mapped 1:1 to your code.
