This is about a blog article from 2018 from a attempt to shrink Qt to work on MCU. But since then, the Qt Company has made a new product called "Qt for MCU" which is not the same product at all. The current "Qt for MCU" is basically a different QML runtime that doesn't really use QtCore and other Qt libraries on the device. I was actually involved in that project.

But I don't know much about its current state because I've now moved to Slint [0], whose architecture is inspired from the Qt for MCU, and which can run on even lower specs, with about 200K of RAM.

I hate to be that guy, but it's a site guideline:

Please don't pick the most provocative thing in an article or post to complain about in the thread. Find something interesting to respond to instead.

For a reader clicking on the post thinking there's going to be a good discussion, they get the first post forcing gender politics irrelevantly into the discussion, then a bunch of stupid follow-up meta discussion. Even if they can collapse it, it's already ruined the thread
This does go both ways, doesn't it?
Especially since a ministry was the main proponent of putting people into gas chambers once. They even killed anyone that would advocate for peace or provide help in this case.

There seems to be a significant power imbalance between the ministry and a parent.
Possible options if you want something more physical:

- A trade/construction job

- Engineer

- Vehicle Mechanic

- Pilot

- Diver

- Coastguard

- Firefighter

- Outdoor activities instructor

- Physical therapist

- Driving/motorcycle instructor

Also, if you don’t want to be a stand up or a PT have you thought about becoming a comedy club owner or gym owner?
> Never bored, and yet never really entertained or satisfied.

Social media in a nutshell
For the above you could
-listen to music
-talk to someone
-read a book, magazine, or newspaper
-text people (I assume we mean no social media, not no phones)

Now my nitpicks

- How long do you wait for gas? It's also an activity (assuming you aren't using full service)

-Camping is an activity

Sure you can come up with a scenarios where people are forced to be bored. Like waiting in a doctors office that you went to by yourself and they don't offer any reading material. Seems rare.

Let me offer another one: solitary confinement, what happens to people left alone with their own thoughts? They often go crazy.
It’s kind of funny how cryptic react can be. Very easy to miss that having an empty [] as a second parameter will result in completely different functionality.

React is pretty nice overall, just why do we design things to be so unintuitive. Dark patterns.
It usually isn't. I have a car, a motorcycle, a bike and a public transit pass. I almost never use the first two unless I'm heading outwards, and even then.

Driving might be faster, but with traffic and parking it's unpredictable. Public transit lets you see read on the way. Cycling gets you exercise and a usually entertaining ride.
> My “self sufficient income stream” comes from always being employable and having a strong network.

The point is that an employee only gets paid as long as he clocks in. Once he turns in his badge, the paychecks cease. You have a self-sufficient way to remain employed (and in a high-paying field — this is great!), but that is not the same thing as generating passive income, which is what SaaS businesses aim to do.

One is not always better than the other, since it is harder to build a business than to just remain employed. But given the choice, most people would choose ongoing passive income to ongoing active employment.
I don’t know anything about your job, so it’s pure assumptions, but aren’t you using your creative input to solve problems in your job as well ?

Basically, your hobby projects are probably more freeing and unbounded, but are they more _creative_ than the work you’re be doing in your paid time ?
Ye not directed directly at GP. I tried to whine about downvotes without writing the d-word.
And yet almost all of the most prosperous democratic socialist countries have signed on to allow free movement of people from many of the poorer parts of Europe.
The page cites “Louis Meulstee, Wireless for the Warrior” as its reference for a nickname of the device, and also links to an excerpt of it that notes that a similar transmitter was actually Czech. I suppose this Louis Meulstee may have been who figured out it was DDR, but without buying that book I guess I won't know how.
Similar to me, my experience has been that you barely have to feed them for them to become comfortable being around you. I had a couple at my last house, and they'd stand ~1 metre away whilst I dug furiously with shovels, picks. I remember one time one landed next to me and snatched half a sandwich from my hand and took off.

They get a bad rep as they swoop, however, they're fascinating and beautiful animals; from their social structures of forming lifelong relationships or forming gangs[1], to their ability to mimic[1].

Peloton is fine if you want a spin class experience. It has nothing to do with road cycling, except that there are pedals.

Zwift, Rouvy, RGT, and similar apps combined with a direct-drive smart trainer (Wahoo Kickr, etc) are closer. They attempt to simulate road cycling. There are routes, hills, group rides, races, workouts.

But I find the indoor cycling experience to be unpleasant. I am constantly reminded that I'm doing a pointless activity indoors. It's not a VR experience where you think you're somewhere else. You're working hard but not going anywhere. Most of the things that make cycling pleasant are missing: fresh air, nice weather, a sense of exploration, the satisfaction of going somewhere and making it back to where you started. I frequently ask myself "why should I keep going, I can just stop now and I'm already home" and there is no good answer.

If you can't go road biking, and your choices are mountain biking or indoor cycling, it seems bizarre to go with indoor cycling.

You don't have to risk life and limb riding difficult trails on a MTB. You can just ride on logging roads in the forest. Or ride easy trails.
You can. You'll need a tank and a pump and a company that will deliver. It's more commonly done (that I've seen) with diesel for farms, but I've come across people who do it for gasoline also. From what I understand, they can get a better price per gallon. I'm sure there's some laws and regulations around it but it is certainly feasible. At least in the USA.
Looks very Robocop vs Terminator!
Why's that relevant?
If you enable "new calling experience" in Labs on develop.element.io or Element Nightly, you should get the option to either select Jitsi or Element Call when starting a video conference in an existing room. (It's still beta though, and I just tried it and it was buggy, so there may still be work to be done there.)
It’s far easier to get an EDL than to get a passport, what are you talking about?

We never had Schengen. Almost every other country has similar entry requirements, why should the US and Canada be any different? They’re not in a far-reaching political alliance, there’s no incentive to have open borders or provide exceptions to rules.

9/11 changed things. It’s absurd to expect things to always be the same and just because it was open before doesn’t mean that was ever intended or expected to be permanent.
What does overdesigned mean? I suppose you mean relying on scientifically proven design practices such as improving readability through use of whitespace and font sizes.

Do you have an example of this being overdone?
It’s false to say there isn’t data and pier reviewed studies on the subject. The link is clear.

However, there’s a lot of propaganda that will pretend otherwise.

We're very likely NOT alone in the universe, but we might as well be alone, for all practical purposes.

If the next civilisation is more than (say) 200 light years away, they can have no interaction with us and none for us with them, so they might as well not exist at all.
Hmm it seems like they're associated, the A List Apart site links to this in the footer as part of the same network.

That said, I do wonder what happened over at A List Apart. Not sure if I'm missing something, but it feels like it's been way less active in recent years in general, with the last post earlier this month, the previous two posts in June and May, and the ones before that back in 2021. It's a shame too, since it's a good site with some interesting web design/development related articles, just one that gets updated so rarely it's not worth keeping track of anymore.
> you still prefer work over spending time with your kid I think maybe it would not be baid idea visiting psychologist.

This is completely off base. Not everyone has to love watching their kids for extended periods. That doesn’t make them broken.
Well I'm not saying that we should put effort into forcing AI to not train on purely AI-generated work.

All I'm saying is that I believe humans are gonna produce more and better code with the help of AI and that AI models trained on a mix of human and AI-generated code will likely result in smarter AI that is also more receptive to cultural changes

I think it's gonna happen through social evolution. Not something we actively need to work towards
uhmmmm not all bitcoin mining emits CO2 though

about 40% of bitcoin mining is either reducing emissions from another source or using renewable like hydro

name another industry with similar numbers aside from hydro/solar/wind itself?

Not trying to defend it, I’m sure the e-waste of the hardware is a problem, the CO2 thing is not accurate
These days even most consumer switches except maybe the cheapest ones are non blocking. I picked up one many years ago for $30 for example.

Most enterprise gear on the switching side is also non blocking, but there are exceptions of course (Cisco sucks).
therapist before any drastic changes, talk it through with someone you’re paying to be there and therefore will get real feedback from, find your blind spots
Rigs of Rods: free and open source vehicle simulator that uses soft-body physics
that really conflates energy use with emissions

thats not how the bitcoin mining sector works, its like you heard about one recommissioned coal plant in new york and assumed that was representative of anything

it isn't economical for miners to operate that way, whereas it is economical at some sources of renewable energy or redirecting energy from polluters - reducing emissions - so thats where the miners are
And this improves the problem statement how exactly? You are just doing the "parent 1" "parent 2" gymnastics that get (deservedly) mocked and (unfortunately) weaponized at any possible occasion.
CoD: Modern Warfare 2 for PC shipped an update in April '22 which was >100GiB. Somewhat more recently in November '22 the Xbox variant required a 40-50GiB update. This does annoy customers, but they still keep doing it:

Dunno, I felt let down. Mysteries reward those paying close attention, everyone builds their pet theory on what happened "The butler did it!" and plays along being a detective. But instead the movie shows you what didn't happen, like grabbing a poisoned drink, and only later shows what really happened, being handed a poisoned drink.

Seems just lazy and lame.
https is complicated. http is simpler, more beautiful :)
I'd go for Paris, but depends on your culture too. I also think that Paris is stepping up its game after Brexit to attract tech, so you might find it a good deal in the future should you choose to branch out or start your own thing. Learn French tho.
I wonder if this ever was a security breach? Not saying it wasn't. just wondering if anyone has a real world example of such.

I bought a raspberry pi off eBay earlier this year for about $120. It was fried and didnt actually work and was able to return it for a full refund.

Seller was super nice - but I imagine the reason they were nice is because they didnt want me to make an extra report about them. They prob had to pay for the $10 I spent to ship it back (unless it comes out of eBay?) but either way they can try that 10 more times and try to turn a profit on an otherwise valueless item.
I disagree, I've been the victim of dropship scams before and despite it being strictly against both eBay and Amazon's TOS there's not even an avenue for reporting as a buyer. I've also definitely received used/returned items which were marketed as "new". I think the nature of scamming is changing, but there are definitely scammers
I have 5 kids. It got way, way easier for mine around ages 5-6. Not only can they play on their own, they can do much more complex activities with you (hobbies, chores) and are much better at controlling their emotions.
Programming is like golf.

In reality, you are competing only against yourself. Can you force the machine to conform to your will, or will you not be successful at that?
> Difficulty changes the odds of any given hash attempt winning. It does not change the odds you will find a winning hash before anyone else does. That is based on your proportion of the overall hash rate.

Nobody cares about who finds it first.

They care about blocks per hour.

> If all miners dropped off (or 99%), blocks won’t keep getting mined every 5 minutes. They’ll take forever to mine until the network adjusts the difficulty, which takes awhile - 2016 blocks, to be precise.

And until that difficulty changes, the remaining miners will find they still get the same number of blocks per hour. In the time the network used to find 1000 blocks, of which they got 10, the network will now find 10 blocks, and they will get... 10.
I've barefoot shoe suggestions.

Freet, a UK maker. Wholesome (according to my taste). So good for my feet. Have been wearing only these and Skinners for around five years now. Cannot imagine going back to thick-sole, narrow, heel-having shoes.

Skinners, barefoot shoe-sock. The most barefoot experience without actually going barefoot. Have been regularly wearing these for three years, my main outdoorsy shoe (with a waterproof sock when might get wet). Ran ~240km in these this summer, mostly on paved roads, and they're still fine.
You are almost certainly actually right, the crows knew you and were pissed. It can get very bad, the crows whose child you stole can somehow tell all the other crows who you are too, even city-wide, and they can get very aggressive. You have gotten off easy so far.

Crows are incredible. And yeah, you can definitely make friends with them too. This Harper's article has some amazing stories of people making enemies, and also really touching stores of friendship.

> From then on, each time Adam or Dani walked onto their back deck, a crow would call out and the murder would reappear as if summoned, squawking so loudly that it was impossible to carry on a conversation. Sometimes the crows would dive-bomb them or attack Mona when she went out to pee. When Adam took the dog for a walk, the crows swooped low and followed them. He tried walking Mona in other neighborhoods, but the crows terrorized him there too. Adam and Dani felt under siege. They worried for Lina’s safety. “The crows are like the Mafia,” Dani told me a few weeks into their ordeal. They’d stopped going outside, she said, unless it was absolutely necessary. And because of the pandemic, they couldn’t really go anywhere else.

> The day Dani rescued Mona from the crows, a neighbor thought he’d spotted a fledgling in Mona’s mouth before the murder first descended. Dani and Adam weren’t so sure—they had never seen Mona attack a bird before. But it nevertheless occurred to them that they might be on some kind of crow hit list. Through online research, Adam learned that crows have an uncanny ability to recognize humans, assign them moral qualities, and pass this information on to other crows, even to future generations. Desperate, Adam took to Reddit. If you’re at war with the crows, post after post advised, your best option is to move.

They enlist a crow expert to help them apologize and make peace with the crows, and it does eventually work. Hope you don't ever need that advice!
When a metric becomes the goal, it ceases to be a useful metric.
Shouldn't a murder mystery show what really happened? Instead of faking it to hide who did it, only to be revealed at the end with the real video footage?

What's the point? Might as well just make it an action movie.
Preference for eye contact varies with culture (among other factors). While people in a place like USA might regard a person who avoids eye contact as sneaky or untrustworthy, people in a place like Japan are more likely to regard direct eye contact as a sign that they are distrusted by the person.

What's the maturity of Dioxus right now, and what's the roadmap for that with rough dates?

After flipping through the different target platform info, looks like the front page claims are partly aspirational, not currently implemented or integrated.

(Reason I ask: Coincidentally, I'm just starting a new TUI project with Cursive tonight, but looked at Dioxus when I saw it on HN, because I'd love to not have to keep relearning different UI toolkit bureaucracies, for also doing Android&iOS, Web, and Linux desktop. But I've seen countless cross-platform GUI toolkit efforts over the decades, and unclear how mature Dioxus is going to become.)

Most likely it can't, since as I understand it ChatGPT synthesizes a response from the entire training set, rather than simply summarizing any particular document.

I wanted to piggyback PFF of this comment because I recently discovered domains.google will let your set a *@domain.tld as a forwarding address, for free, and that's pretty nifty.

I use it for infinite throwaway addresses which won't get put on a blacklist because I'm the only one using that domain.

You still need to skim the page. The same way you can skim video to find the place you remember. I don't see a lot of difference here.
Now showing things is fair, after all it wouldn't be a who done it, if they showed everything.

But the movie showed fake video to hide what really happened. Only at the end did they show the real video.
You make a good point about the site guidelines.

Although in this particular case, I think you're in the minority in believing that the original comment was provocative.

Anecdotally, I do a lot less personal projects and wild exploration since spending much more time on the net every day. This resonates to other people’s comments I think.

On the other hand, when looking back at what I was doing a decade or two ago, they were dumber, clunkier and just less interesting things overall. My personal take is that the barrier to invest time into something is now a lot higher, but the results are to me much more fulfilling and impacting.

Doing stuff out of pure boredom wasn’t as efficient and engaging as doing stuff that I long thought about and actively create time to execute on.

Completely agree. The marketplaces seem resigned to the trade-off between scale and fraud.
I've found that people that learned class-based React first and then switched to modern function-based React often have more trouble with useEffect than people who learned functional components directly

I think a big part of the problem is we need to stop selling useEffect as a replacement for the lifecycle methods of class based components. It also probably would've been a lot less confusing if we called it something like useSideEffect

I think any react linting setup resolves most of the confusion but there's a lot of people that start off and don't even know how to set up lint rules for react. They should be a default in any react app imo
If a comment is off-topic, and bringing gendered language into a thread about mathematics surely is, then it’s OK to point out that it’s off-topic. In an ideal world everybody would read the guidelines, but practically we all need a reminder every now and then.
What do you like about coding? Building the whole project or the key parts?

You can move towards management if you get the big picture and only code things you like.

One of my managers in the past would attend meetings all day and strategize. If he found a project he liked, he'd delegate someone to attend his meetings.

He figured out a way to keep himself sane.
Pigeons are just about the most agile fliers in the bird world, so maybe they just feel that they are above needing "optimal strategies".
The US Federal Government has only the limited powers granted it by the federal constitution. The States, on the other hand, have general authority… their powers are not limited (except by the specific restrictions set forth in the US Const.) In short, there is a very real and legal and intended difference between FedGov and StateGov. If you don’t like it, change the constitution. But, it’s not matter of opinion… it’s simply the way the USA government is set up. States have ‘general police power’ while the Fed does not.
