> Windows then you have to use one of those filesystems.

I can appreciate that's true if the client systems are not under your control, but if you have influence over all systems that will touch the drives, I've had good experiences with OpenZFS which has drivers for all 3 major OSes: Linux, macOS, Windows

One just needs to be cautious not to use bleeding-edge features because the ZFS release cycles differ, but otherwise so far it has done fine for me
You don't have the right to gatekeep on HN. There are plenty of people here that aren't Electrical engineers and the article will be great for them. I certainly enjoyed it. The thing I love about HN is exposure to various types of articles, even things not even remotely related to tech, and certainly YOU should not be some sort of purveyor about what belongs on HN or not.

Presumably, yes. And assuming they have Tailwind skills as a 'add-on' I'd argue it's easier for them to understand and get going straight away with:

class="rounded shadow p-4 pb-1 bg-white"

than:

class="blog__rounded-box blog__rounded-box--padding-fix"

But I get your point. It's the same as the article, right? You still need to understand CSS to use Tailwind, so why bother? I guess each to their own. Maybe we'll regret this in a few years, but it works very well and feels much more maintainable for us now. I've certainly worked on enough projects (and, mercy!) had to pick up enough projects where the 'vanilla' CSS was absolute spaghetti!
>It has features like scarcity, no ability to stop a transaction, etc. as features over other forms of money.

Those absolutely are not features of Bitcoin.
Wait, your work laptop only lets you perform administrative tasks on the local machine if it can connect over the internet to corporate, and that includes being unable to modify certain network settings without first having a working network uplink? That sounds like something that was always guaranteed to break in an awkward way, not a particular problem with the DNS server that you happened to be using that day.
This just keeps getting worse and worse, with no end in sight. I recently looked at the school lunch ingredient lists here in California. The hamburger buns contain both corn syrup and sucralose (splenda). I really wonder what the rationale is.

I guess they need to put the splenda in so that they screw up all the kids' metabolism + gut microbes, but they also need to make sure the food isn't accidentally diabetic safe?

Maybe I shouldn't be surprised. This is the same bureaucracy that defunded science and art education, and attempted to defund calculus (so that only rich districts with educational foundations would have those things). I kind of suspect it's some sort of intentional long-game eugenics program. I wonder if there is some way for rich Californian parents to band together to pay extra for non-malicious school lunches (as with science and art education).

(Or, better, force the state government to stop sucking so much!)
I suppose Russia's and Trump's modus operandi is based exactly on gaslighting. So was Bolsonaro's. Not only pretending they weren't wrongdoing, but that the accusers are the ones who lie and are not seeing things clearly. We see it a lot in politics these days.
First and foremost it is important to understand hydrogen is not a source of renewable energy. It is not like the sun or wind where there is an available, renewable, low carbon source of energy we can harvest. Hydrogen is only an energy storage mechanism. And it has efficiency vs weight vs volume tradeoffs compared with other storage mechanisms such as batteries or thermo-sand or hydro-gravity, etc.

Most of what is going on in the hydrogen space right now is that it is being leveraged by the fossil fuel industry to try to spread FUD around batteries and slow EV adoption. This is overshadowing the actual potential use cases for hydrogen, unfortunately.
By that definition, the couple is "doing violence" against me by operating the car, as it damages the environment, which is an asset that I control via democratic means (compare and contrast one-person-one-vote of a democracy to one-share-one-vote of traded companies) and benefit from by living in.

And likewise, you're being so reductive that the same logic also makes the state and the law "just people", as the courts are made of judges and lawyers who are people, likewise the police and the bailiffs are people, the banks may be increasingly automated but they're also still people, and so on.

But then, we have the government by consent, at least to the same degree we have employment by consent; not just by elections, but also e.g. "if you don't like Brexit, move to Germany" as someone said to me, oblivious that I already had — but not everyone has that option in practice even if they do on paper, just as not everyone is in charge of their employment opportunities in practice even if they are on paper.
>> most the grass feed cows are raised in fields that used to be rain forests in Brazil

> Evidence for that rather large claim?

While most cows in Brazil are grass-fed, about half are raised on former rainforest:

"Nearly 50% of Brazilian livestock are raised in fields that used to be rainforest."[0,1]

"Most cows in Brazil, the world’s largest beef exporter, are grass-fed."[2]

How beef demand is accelerating the Amazon’s deforestation and climate peril[3]:

> Cattle ranchers in the Brazilian Amazon — the storied rainforest that produces oxygen for the world and modulates climate — are aggressively expanding their herds and willing to clear-cut the forest and burn what’s left to make way for pastures. As a result, they’ve become the single biggest driver of the Amazon’s deforestation, causing about 80 percent of it, according to the Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies.

Cattle Ranching in the Amazon Region[4]:

> Cattle ranching is the largest driver of deforestation in every Amazon country, accounting for 80% of current deforestation rates. Amazon Brazil is home to approximately 200 million head of cattle, and is the largest exporter in the world, supplying about one quarter of the global market. Low input cost and easy transportation in rural areas make ranching an attractive economic activity in the forest frontier; low yields and cheap land encourage expansion and deforestation. Approximately 450,000 square kilometers of deforested Amazon in Brazil are now in cattle pasture. Cattle ranching and soy cultivation are often linked as soy replaces cattle pasture, pushing farmers farther into the Amazon.

Just pointing out the flaw in NNT's reasoning. Obviously, USD (and EUR, BTC, CAD, etc.) has value despite lacking a cash flow. Essentially, it's worth something because people believe it's worth something.
I'd argue that automated market makers are one of the killer apps, as they solve the double coincidence of wants.

The value becomes clear when you think about the amount of resources spent on that problem in the traditional financial markets.
Same feeling here.

In Tailwind, I'll use a `p-3` or a `.flex.items-center` all day, but making a nice button is such a slog, since I'm coming from a Vuetify background.

Vuetify also has the same layout classes as Tailwind, like `pa-3` and `.d-flex.align-center`

I use Vuetify + Pug (instead of raw HTML templates), so I get to make buttons like this:

v-btn(outlined color="accent" @click="handleClick") Do Stuff

or a Data Table with, say, a custom-formatted UPC column, like this:

v-data-table(:loading="loading", :items="items", :headers="headers", :items-per-page="50" dense).my-3
template(v-slot:item.upc="{ item }")
span {{formatUpc(item.upc)}}

(I like to separate attributes with commas, which is valid pug but invalid HTML)

Sure, I could get something like TailwindUI, but their components are walls of divs and classes that each take half an hour to load into my head to visualize what's creating all the combos of states (regular, hover, focus).

So my Vuetify + Pug approach works great for greenfield projects that I create.

But if I'm downloading a nice template for a side project, say from Cruip.com, it's not like they're going to use the same build chain as me, and they do have to settle on a standard CSS library, so they default to Tailwind (just like 5~10 years ago they would have defaulted to Bootstrap).
That math doesn't add up though.

$10 a person is naive math, sure, there would be reduced demand which means that some of that cost would be bourne by other purchasers to keep industry revenue stable, and there would be a reduction in production which further compounds this. But it's not a doubling in cost, I think the true number would be between 20 and 30 dollars per person (10-20% of their monthly food budget) that continues eating as much meat, per month, and close to that percentage in production decline. A big deal, but not a complete upheaval in the meat industry.

The subsidies aren't really about keeping meat costs down for consumers so that meat producers can remain profitable. They're more about manipulating the global meat market to compete against other producers and ensure domestic food security.
Part of it too is the stressful expectations school puts on you that as you’ve found, don’t actually exist in the real world.
The only time I've seen anyone use "emacs server" or "emacsserver" is to refer to the Emacs Lisp needed to make the command emacsclient (the analog to VS Code's "code" command or TextMate's "mate" command) work.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe you are using it to refer to running Emacs remotely without a GUI (i.e., with only a terminal emulator as the UI) even though the person you are replying to specifically stated, "I want to run my editor on the local machine so that it can benefit from graphics support and integrate properly with the local windowing system."

I am writing this to prevent readers of your comment from ending up more confused than they were before they started reading this thread.
I was thinking that exact sound when I opened this post.

Cryptocurrencies like Ether are backed by the network's virtual machine. You have to pay Ether to process a transaction on the Ethereum virtual machine and as transactions can do arbitrary computations, Ether is useful for things other than transferring Ether.

Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin don't have that feature, but that just makes them more like fiat currencies. You could argue that fiat currencies are backed by the force the state is willing to use to get its population to pay taxes in the currency, but that's not a stable backing, as the state could decide to accept another currency at any time. Some states do allow for tax payments in other currencies, which means that some fiat currencies have no backing by that mechanism. Some people are also forced to pay in Bitcoin, for example to ransomware, which should have a similar effect in forcing people to use the currency.

Ultimately, I don't see why a currency would need backing. There is nothing wrong with a currency gaining value purely from its value and utility as a currency. Many other valuable things such as precious metals and art gain a large part of its value in the same way.
The problem with Bitcoin is that the current economics of the network are long-term unsustainable. The current incentive for miners to secure consensus are block rewards. But block rewards halve every four years (which is how Bitcoin enables the hardcopy of 21 million BTC).

That means that over the long-term the incentive for honest consensus tends towards zero. By 2032, the cost of 51% attacking the network for one day will be less than 0.1% of the outstanding market cap. The long-term theoretical solution is to replace block rewards with transaction fees, however because Bitcoin is not a Turing complete smart contract platform the demand for block space is essentially a rounding error.
Yeah, I used Bootstrap for a long time, and got used to how it works.

I wanted to like Tailwind, but it seems a bit disingenuous. It's like using inline style tags, just with shorter names.

From time to time I've made an effort to learn how CSS works, but after a while I forget the details. It's more productive if I can browse a catalogue of visual examples, with concise markup that is easy to copy and paste.

Bulma seems like the more "modern" take on Bootstrap: https://bulma.io/
Political Science: The Quota Rule Algo Used for US Congressional Apportionment
I believe the universe is finite and so there can only be a finite number of realizations of quantum numbers. I have no real intuition in physics or training in physics so I know I could be completely wrong. It seems to me though that our experiences are such that believing the universe is discrete in all things is not completely unreasonable. Though this belief of mine might itself be unreasonable.
I have two frustrations with keyboard shortcuts that I think most people generally share:

1. They are usually inconsistent, so muscle memory conflicts.

2. You usually can't edit them.

If only we could just edit them. The possibilities....
That does sound disgusting, indeed.

Super point. I can't resist repeating it back. When incorrect work outperforms correct work in superficial evaluation, it is then selected for.
Tailwind certainly has some advantages and nice features, but the length of the class string when you need something common but complex like a custom styled checkbox including focus states, various hovers, media-queries, etc gets absurd and far more difficult to read, debug, and update.

I think one of the primary reasons Tailwind is so popular is how poorly React deals with classes and styles. In other frameworks/libraries like Vue/Svelte CSS is treated as a first-class citizen with a lot of nice quality-of-life improvements that React teams are forced to implement using awful CSS-in-JS solutions or with Tailwind. You get single-file-components, scoped styles, etc, all out of the box and without having to learn a new abstraction.

If the dev world wasn't a React monoculture (and more devs appreciated CSS deeply) I think you would see significantly less interest in Tailwind.
Isn't it still measured in months (after purchase)?
I use Tailwind for a SaaS app because of TailwindUI and I'm pretty happy with it. I also used the Marketing page examples to put together a website[1] pretty quickly.
When the app UI gets more complicated the need for design skills definitely creeps in. But, taking a step back, using a wireframing tool like Balsamiq, and having another look through the component catalog has gotten me pretty far. I'm happy with our ability to ship quickly.

Enforcing consequences is difficult as laws and bureaucracies become ever more complex.

This gives plenty of space for opportunists and tricksters to hide.

You don’t ever have to fear being beheaded by the people whose life savings you stole and you don’t have to face consequences if you have a good lawyer.

To do well in todays world learn all the rules and where the loop holes lie. Violating the spirit of the law is fine as long as you can lawyer around the letter of it.
Ask HN: What Is Multitasking at Work?
You've probably heard multitasking is bad for your brain. I've always assumed this means studying with a tv show, answering emails during a meeting etc etc. But what about during a developer setting?

I'm working in cloud software development and there are a lot of times where I simply cannot do the task that I was assigned at the moment. My solution is to switch to the following task, and alternate when my questions get answered. These intervals range anywhere from 5 to 120 minutes.

Do you think it's bad to switch between tasks this way, would you even call it multitasking? I don't enjoy working this way, my mind is constantly decluttering. But it's also unnerving to just spend up to 2 hours waiting for my supervisor's approval, so I'm at loss.

Yes, this. Although it's not so much a trick and more managing your home network so it's like any other. Computers connected to the network should automatically detect everything they need to work normally, so no manual settings are needed.

Otherwise, as the parent poster realized, moving the device to another network will require manual changes. And then changes again when you get back.

LOL - Flatline's second listed ingredient is oleoresin capsicum.

Do they have any “tools” to temporarily allow some blocked content from a device? Or does one have to go to web and adjust the profile?
Resilience against a 51% attack has nothing to do with a "diversity of users". It simply has to do with the security budget (block rewards and block space fees) being high enough to incentivize honest consensus over reorg attacks.
In my opinion this is the weakest argument for veganism. Are Lions bad because they eat deer? Are Sharks good because they eat fish that eat other fish that eat plants? Are cats demons...maybe?

The philosophy makes no sense even if you start with the assumption that animals are on the same moral plane as people that does not preclude or discount eating them out of preference because animals already do that. If you want to argue for veganism use a less combative prideful argument. For example I'm not vegan or vegetarian but I heavily reduce my meat consumption for environment and health reasons, less than 2 times a month and I want to go lower. Talking about the nuance and difficulty that comes with eating less meat and overcoming them should be inline with the, moral pride based better than you attitude you have. And it should be something you are seeking not trying to derail because your goal is to get people to eat less meat.
If this is correct it is alarming to think that so many young people have a mental health disorder. Which begs the question: Is this really just over diagnosis, or are young people becoming ever less resilient?
Fair point. But at least, on Telegram, you have to actively seek out such channels to join and they don't otherwise impinge on your use of the service. It's not like other social media outlets where there's a central site which endlessly shoves crap you don't want to see in your face, every time you visit.

And yes, I know that, strictly speaking 'Telegram != social media'. But, with Telegram Channels, it does kind of cross over into the 'Discordy' end of social media.
