> so would you say that one of the first things a htmx based project should do is handle all the error conditions ? like all the 40x and 50x ? and stuff like your modal thinggy ?

IMO yeah, but different pages and actions will (probably) want different things. For example clicking a button that makes a POST request may make more sense to have a red toast notification if it fails, however a tab that dynamically loads its content in using htmx might want a dummy placeholder saying "Sorry, try again later" or something like that. Functionality around the modals were done as and when we needed them and then expanded on over time so I don't think you need to write/know everything up front. It's honestly been a joy to use based on how simple it is once embrace server side rendering.

> how do you develop the js here ? do you setup a different nodejs/npmjs toolchain. or do the jqueryish development of edit->browser reload ?

For my projects it's just 1 or 2 JS files that are included in my base template that contain the event handlers, so it's quite old school of edit and refresh. I use Django mostly now so I can use that to collect and minify static files so it's low effort/complexity.

The only down side is for the few JS packages I do need (e.g. Select2 for nice dropdowns) I either vendor the package in (no automatic updates) or use NPM (but it's a pain). Again, depends on what you want because htmx doesn't care either way.

We had to have a big mostly dead tree in our backyard cut down a few years ago, I insisted they leave the debris. Some of the branches are re-establishing themselves, as well as the stump, and it looks like we'll get multiple trees out of it. The places in between the branches I let grow wild, and we're getting birds I've never seen coming to visit. It's great, and I have no regrets.

> McMaster-Carr shoppers don’t encounter distractions; you can see proof of this on the homepage which jumps right into the action:

The web site is based on the paper catalogue (book), from layout, visual interface, and organization. The paper version was excellent and useful. Instead of trying all sorts of "fun" (for the designer) web capabilities, they focused on ohw the web could augment what they were already successfully doing. No redesign for design's sake.

Some of the best paper catalogues like McMaster and Sigma had excellent, customer-centered design, which led to long term loyalty. Easy to find what you needed, and useful as references, not just as a place to buy. They have retained that philosophy into the web world.

Compare this to, say, Amazon where Amazon's needs are prioritized over the customers', with the obvious result of reduced loyalty and the need to shore that up with rewards (prime, discounts, advertising).
Everyone asked for this, including artists. If you make a living off of making art, having the best tools to help you do that is a constant, and the tools are finally starting to get properly good. Will "the job" change because of the tools? Of course. Will the nature of what it means for something to be art change? Also of course. Art isn't some static, untouchable thing. It changes as humanity does.

It's worse than that, sadly. A lot of what is perceived as standards (that is they have an official sounding spec on w3c somewhere) are actually not, and are just Chrome releasing stuff.

If you go to MDN and click on multiple experimental APIs you'll find they do have a spec. And they are shipped in Chrome. And then you start reading the spec and it says "It is not a W3C Standard nor is it on the W3C Standards Track.": https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API
What you say is completely true. But you compare rich countries with other rich countries, and you are looking at exceptions rather than the trend. Morocco, the poorest country you've chosen, is richer than India, the Philippines, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Nigeria.

Once you get past $20k/yr GDP per capita, there's indeed limited additional benefit (there are diminishing returns). Which country is ahead of which other is essentially random. It depends on other factors, not GDP.

But if look at the scenarios for Middle East and Africa, it would take roughly 10 years longer for the Green Road scenario to get to $20k/yr, compared to the Highway.

A similar thing happened within the Wehrmacht[0]:

> A curious point developed. German morale in the higher grades was worse than in the lower. ...

This unusual situation arose from the fact that the National Socialist propaganda machinery was still working on the masses of the troops. The political officers still made speeches. The troops were given pep talks, ...

In contrast with common troops, the officers had the professional skill to understand the advantages possessed by the Allied armies. The officers knew enough about global and continental strategy, about the immediate strategy of the Western front, about economic factors and so on, to see that the situation was genuinely bad. Furthermore, the officer class had been less indoctrinated in the first place...

A common Landser, tough and ready in a whole division full of well fed, well armed men, could not be expected to undergo despair because freight-car loadings hundreds of miles away had dropped to zero. He might see that the Luftwaffe was less in evidence; he might grumble about mail, or about having to use horse transport, but as long as he could see that his own unit was getting on all right, it was hard to persuade him that defeat was around the corner. In World War I, the German troops at the time of surrender were much better off than most of them thought they were; in World War II, they thought they were better off than they actually were. The Germans may not have been in perfect shape, but they were incomparably better off than the starving scarecrows with whom Generalissimo Chiang was trying to hold back the Japanese in West Hunan or the Americans who had fought despair, fever and Japanese—all three at once—on Bataan.

I have read that strategic bombing was ineffective, done mainly for propaganda purposes. Having seen the OR tools that came out of that war, or were published a decade later, I would not be surprised to learn that they had in fact been doing (at least rudimentary) min-cut analyses for target selection, and that alleged ineffectiveness (of the mathematics or of the kilotons) is itself propaganda.

McMaster is definitely B2B oriented, but I think one of the reasons they're much loved is because they do a lot better job of dealing with individual consumers and small orders than a lot of B2B. There are sometimes annoying MOQ and sometimes high shipping fees (they do sell a lot of bulky/heavy/long items), but for the most part McMaster is still perfectly pleasant to deal with if you're buying a few bits and pieces for a household project. This really matters to me: doing some electrical projects, for example, there are things (like certain Legrand raceway) that are difficult to buy other than through electrical distributors that only want to deal on account and have a fifteen-step process to open one. McMaster sometimes has a good equivalent and they'll just ship me one!

I love the pragmatism behind tools like osquery and steampipe that expose a lot of APIs as database tables. It makes these datasets available to non-programmers that are more comfortable with a database/tabular format.

Is it fair to say though, that FDWs have to run as compiled shared libs? I've always wondered if there can be (like with VS code and language servers) a protocol where we can run a generic FDW that speaks a particular API over the network, and then you can build out-of-process connectors to it and just have to know the usual tools (HTTP, JSON, etc).

Thoughts? Maybe this already exists.

Then anyone could potentially build a bespoke API/dataset and just point an FDW to it.

Does anyone remember Small Parts? They had an awesome catalog somewhat akin to McMaster. When Amazon bought them out, for a year or two, Amazon search maintained the really detailed category stuff and was approaching McMaster utility for things like machine screws. But then, like much with Amazon, it died.

I'm very much confused about why there aren't more Amazon competitors that do better with this sort of UI stuff and charge more. At this point, I'm happy to pay a 10% (or maybe even 50%) tax from McMaster or Digikey because of the time and effort it saves and the backend customer service if something goes wrong. When I started my university lab 10 years ago, I was so excited by what Amazon is doing. At this point, the only reason I still use them is that its hard to set up sales tax exemptions with all the small vendors. If someone could automate that process in checkout, I'd never use Amazon for work...

Pleasantly surprised to see .NET shared on HN! I've had a lot of success with it in my career building several SaaS platforms from the ground-up. The tooling is great. It's wild how productive a small startup team can be on the .NET stack using a clean architecture.
Yes. Without question.

There already been an investigation and review on this years ago [0] [1] and fast forward today, all we got was TikTok getting caught planning to track specific individual US citizens [2] another investigation into users being shown a distorted reality of two countries at war due to its 'magical' and 'amazing' recommendation algorithm [3], then collecting highly sensitive biometric, face and voice prints of US users; essentially identifying them which aids [2] and finally TikTok admitting that they DID access US user data from China after denying that they didn't.

So it is quite easily and irrefutably clear that TikTok is another worse version of Facebook riddled with privacy issues to the point that it is beyond a surveillance app. Some may say that it is "The best thing to have happened to the Internet" [6] which all of this shows that it absolutely is not the case.

Since Facebook got a $5BN fine for violating the privacy of its users, then it makes perfect sense that the same should apply to TikTok and must be fined in the billions of dollars if it wants to continue operating in the US and respect the privacy of its users.

I feel like the properties of CRC make them superior for that task in most cases though. (CRC8, CRC16, CRC32 and CRC64, maybe CRC128 if anyone ever bothered going that far)

In particular, CRC guarantees detection on all bursts of the given length. CRC32 protects vs all bursts of length 32 bits.

Having loosely followed this space, I think I might actually have some input!

First off, you need a VR-ready environment. Not many companies are making these, so the only people equipped to roll this out is Valve, Meta, and possibly Unreal/Epic. Valve already did this alongside Half Life Alyx; they released certain map portions so you could freely walk around them with friends without playing the game. Meta is getting there, but the combination of low-power hardware and headset attrition doesn't leave them with much of an audience. There's also Epic, but they don't really do much in this space yet either.

So, obviously a paradigm shift is needed. And frankly, I think Universal Scene Description will be that paradigm shift. TL-DR: Nvidia came up with a new standard for 3D environments that interoperates game technology with digital effects. In theory, you could take your favorite Andor or Rings of Power scenes, drag their file into another app, and just start walking around in-scene. You may end up adjusting a few things vis-a-vis scale, but once it reaches adoption I can see it being pretty easy to work with and popular.

Maybe 'next year' is a little close, but the stars have definitely aligned already.

If there were a beauty products web site that was organized that well, I'd switch to it immediately.

I've spent more than 3 hours linearly searching local CVS and Walgreens for basic stuff in the last week, so you've touched a nerve!

For any given product category, they now group some stuff by brand, then function, and other stuff by function, then brand.

A given brand or function can be split across a half dozen such hierarchies. Also, they then slice the inventory by attractiveness to shoplifters, doubling the already intractable search problem. Finally, the aisles for a given type of product are not necessarily contiguous.

Amazon actually has a landing page like the McMaster one for beauty products:

https://www.amazon.com/b?bbn=3760911&rh=n%3A3760911&dc&qid=1...

Except it is broken:

- It displays "featured categories" which can be expanded with "show more", but there is no "show all categories" button.

- The first screen is spam, the second screen is content. More spam (== algoritmic suggestions not based on intent) until roughly screen 10,

- At that point, there is a helpful "filter hair care by ethnicity" table. Since this is their second most important flow (apparently), let's focus on it.

Back on screen two, tapping "hair care" drills down to hair products, but there is no ethnicity filter. Why even have an ethnicity grouping (and waste scarce landing page space on it) if it is not discoverable by people shopping for hair care? Also, how do you filter skin care, cosmetics, etc by ethnicity?

What about other facets, such as medical issues (e.g., sensitive skin or allergic to fragrances)?

I disagree. If you have knowledge, and you don't try to do anything other than compress it to make space, reasoning about that knowledge will come about by sheer unintended consequence once the patterns your compressing on reach some threshold of sophistication.

By definition, an optimal compression algo is a dimensionality reduction algo. A dimensionality reduction algo lets you do a bunch of machine learning tasks.

Ummm...no. Then "Alice" in that example will eventually find out what I said and the manager and peers will think I am difficult to work with if my reason is not wanting to work with someone. A good manager has to read between the lines and understand these things without being told so outright. I can only recall one time where I complained about someone to a manager and only because I had no choice and it was affecting my work.

I'm not drawing a dichotomy between genius and asshole, I'm saying that Musk has revealed himself to be quite a dumbass in reality. For instance, you have to be exceptionally dumb to pay $44B for a company worth $12B.

There are a lot of anecdotal stories about teams at Tesla and SpaceX managing up to keep him from making terrible decisions all the time. I used to thing it just grousing, but now I'm not so sure.
