The Last Jedi was completely disjointed from the previous movie, introduced "fuel" as a plot device that hadn't been even mentioned in the 7 previous movies, gave us the Mary Poppins Princess Leia, had a weird and heavy handed side quest in a casino planet that ultimately had no impact on the plot, killed Snoke without giving the audience some form of closure as to who he was, had BB-8 pilot an AT-ST as an ex-machina, had Rose prevent Finn from sacrificing himself, gave Luke depression (which is ok) but handled it as a throwaway joke, and finally had him drink green milk from some alien cow teat.

That's just from the top of my head, but I do loath The Last Jedi.
No, that was my point. The movie was very good for what it was, and the article’s complaints are almost all based on the author making incorrect assumptions about the movie’s intent and then complaining that the writing did not meet their incorrect assumptions.

It’s fine to dislike the movie; about 7% of critics and moviegoers do, according to rotten tomatoes. But at least have the grace to understand it.
It's very funny to read stuff about mass arbitrations (e.g. https://www.cooley.com/news/insight/2022/2022-06-30-how-comp...).

Oh no - you're facing millions of dollars in mandatory fees to defend against thousands of nearly identical cases in arbitration? My goodness, who forced you to adopt that arbitration clause? How terrible of them.
1. The best way to avoid creating an explosion of states is [Locality of Behavior]. Elements should avoid targeting other elements that are not inside them, especially those written in different templates. Sometimes this is unavoidable (i.e. updating a site-wide shopping cart). If htmx is adopted widely and those state explosions become an issue (I'm not aware of it happening so far), maybe a "redux for htmx" will be invented.
2. "Classic HTTP and HTML are all about serving static files," I'm not sure about that. In my opinion, dynamically generated responses are a core part of HTTP. All HTML and all the htmx attributes are sent by the server, so we're only keeping the server in sync with itself. I get what you mean though. Going back to the shopping cart example, the code that adds an item to the cart needs to remember that the cart total is displayed in the nav bar and include that fragment. A server mechanism could possibly be created that tracks these dependencies, but again, it's not been an issue yet.
iirc it's extremely authoritarian. "Listen to your betters without question, for they know better than you. You do not need to understand their reasoning." We follow our heroes through an adventure and then our expectations are subverted when we learn their insubordinate adventure was bad and we're bad for rooting for them. Sorta flies in the face of everything people liked about star wars before it.
You are still licensed the operating system and end user software from a separate company or companies. Which means the reduction of tech to JUST the software is still extremely crass.

Said another way, the dependency graph is bidirectional. Software requires hardware to run. Hardware is of no practical use without software. The fixed quantity is the "use case", NOT the software.
Active vs passive deaths is important in people’s minds. People act like all these passive things are simply endemic to “reality” when many are side effects of lack of collective action such as climate change, bad transportation infrastructure / zoning, poverty, etc.
If you want the visionary behind the Internet, it was J.C.R. Licklider. He envisioned an "Intergalactic Computer Network" in the early 1960s. He galvanized the effort to start it, but wasn't the one to execute on it. The one to kickstart the effort was Larry Roberts, Lick's successor at the ARPA Information Processing Techniques Office (IPTO). It was Wesley Clark who suggested the use of a separate computer to do the packet switching for the network (as opposed to letting the host computer do it), the so called "Interface Message Processor", the equivalent of routers in today's Internet. In 1969 The ARPAnet was born with only two nodes, and from there started growing in the early 70s. The network protocol at the time was called NCP (Network Control Protocol), which handled both network layer and transport layer functionality. Vint Cerf and Bob Khan developed the "Transmission Control Program", which still did both layers, but later, towards the late 70s, revised it by separating the two into "Transmission Control Protocol" and "Internet Protocol", aka TCP/IP. The ARPAnet finally switched from NCP to TCP/IP on Jan 1, 1983, the so called birth of the Internet.
- On the critically important problem of climate change, no meaningful progress will occur.

- Research into fusion power will yield another significant breakthrough, leading to predictions that commercial applications may now be only 30 years away.

- Consumer AI tools will start producing short, badly-animated video clips of... anything you want, as long as it isn't (obviously) porn.

- Russia will somehow manage to spend all year losing its war against Ukraine without showing any willingness to accept defeat.

Plenty of white nationalists were banned from Twitter due to TOS violations. I seem to recall the free speech "absolutists" still being upset about those bans. Why is TOS violation suddenly a good reason to ban?
Newly discovered naturally occurring??

Just because science can theorize something is there, it takes a lot of effort to prove it is true through experimenting. Take the Higgs Boson for example requiring the amount of effort of creating the LHC to prove it existed.

Having something synthesized in a lab is one thing, but seeing it actually found in objects in space but not here on terra firma would be something new to science.
Surely the on-screen text “May 2020” at the beginning should have clued us in.

And I’m not sure why the year even matters for the plot.

I think that should be understood as "had not been discovered in a naturally occurring state before".
In my experience most of my state in contexts changes infrequently (auth information, or the “current client” for a dashboard, or whatever), and then local state is sufficient for the rest. The few times I have sufficiently complexity in the “middle” I indeed have been annoyed and had to be careful to avoid over-frequent rerenders.

It’s just rare enough that “prefer contexts” is a good rule. Simpler, easier to understand code, with no Redux nonsense.
It’s not a matter of understanding. Many people just don’t believe that the statements you made match reality.

It’s not a difference of competence, it’s a difference of axioms. You believe that (almost?) all people would desist from antisocial behavior if they had food, shelter and medical care. Others do not believe this, because they have different beliefs regarding human nature.
So if the slogan of our age is "Cash Rules Everything Around Me", were the medievals into vitamin F, no matter which their order?

Like I keep on saying, most problems facing humanity are energy problems. We must harness abundant energy from all possible sources instead of categorically denying one source or another for ideological reasons. We're not as far removed from the bottom of Maslow's hierarchy as many in the West believe.
You would be scarcely rubbing two sticks together rather than browsing HN if we did not extract resources. Encroachment is not a function of the specificity of resources but of demand. Damaging a marginal piece of Earth in and of itself does not matter in any existential sense, the only thing that does is long term survival. Since population growth is poised to stagnate in 100 years or so globally, we can expect demand to level off in kind, all the while gains in efficiency through innovation and recycling will continue to the extent that encroachment will be minimal.

There is far more damage done owing to the demand for fossil fuels, which is still irreplaceable currently for non-electrical cases (75% of their use). We use it for ammonia, steel, concrete, plastics, all pillars of modern civilization.

The most rapid viable intervention in the near term is lowering growth, by expanding access to contraceptives, and other incentives. Westerners treat that as a right so everyone should be on board.
The author has some really good points, and I think anyone building or using a tool like this should be able to take a hard look at what the tool is actually doing for them personally, vs what it seems like it could potentially be useful for.

One big limitation is time: it takes a lot of time to write things in, say, Roam. You need to be getting commensurate benefit for the time invested. If you aren't sure what the benefit is, except "one day maybe I'll read through all this again and then..." it's probably not worth it. You can make write-only documents anywhere, no need to organize and hyperlink them.

On the other hand, sometimes the amount of friction in using a tool is the issue. Something can be completely impractical when it's doable in principle but has high cost, vs when it is pervasive and effortless. Software that actively searches for associations with what you're currently writing and presents them to you could be much more valuable than software that lets you follow hyperlinks if you want, but you don't actually bother doing it.

Finally, I'll say there's also the fact that humans need to accrete habits slowly over time. If you find/build a notetaking tool with 10,000 plugins, well ok, knowing that the plugins exist is one thing, but you won't actually use them or get value out of them until your brain has indexed them and you've formed a habit that is triggered by a recurring context you will find yourself in.
Sounds like what you really want is c#.
It’s all about incentives. The downside to more drinking deaths if the university did nothing is much worse than the downside to killing off Senior House. In the latter case, students are annoyed. In the former case, there’s a probability of expensive litigation.

In the case of cancelling speakers, there’s a bit of outrage and annoyance on the part of free thinking folks and fascists (who are two separate groups with a bit of overlap on the Venn diagram on this issue). But those groups don’t tend to form effective mobs on campus and aren’t terribly litigious compared to the vocal cancellers on the left.

I haven't seen the movie yet, but I know this much: you can't cheat.

If you do, and you keep some fundamental fact hidden until the last minute, or if you use some kind of magic, or if the murderer was a complete outsider, or if the victim died by accident and nobody's guilty, or, God forbid! if it turns out the victim isn't actually dead, or it was all a dream... then the audience gets angry. Sometimes very angry. That may be what happened here.

I wish I could upvote more than once. Thanks for this perspective!
One thing to consider now with the traditional advice of "just put your money in index funds" is that this has led to empowering 3 firms beyond belief: BlackRock, State Street & Vanguard who control over $20 TRILLION (with a T) of managed assets now thanks to these "index funds" that Americans mindlessly pour their money into. This is over half the value of the S&P 500. Way too much power for 3 firms, and the Directors behind them.

Wifi does work on the Pi 4 with Fedora 37. I tried that just a few hours ago.
I'm still not 100% happy with the existing tools for thought.

So far, Google Keep is by far my favorite in terms of experience, because it's blazing fast, plus it has Android widget and Google Assistant integration..

But I don't fully trust it to always be around, so I don't use it for anything long term, just shopping and to do lists, and quick notes to be copied somewhere safer later.

For calendar-like stuff, I use Google Calendar, for the same reasons.

I tend to think of privacy as a specialist tool not generally needed, so I use BitWarden's secure note feature to record anything I'd rather have encrypted.

Finally, for long term notes and journalling, I use Obsidian and SyncThing. But I dislike that Obsidian takes 8 seconds or so to load up, and has no widget to keep always-open, that's just way too much friction for something I'm relying on as a second brain.

If Keep had a markdown sync feature that would keep all notes synced to a portable folder of markdown guaranteed to be there if the service goes down or an app update breaks something, and if they had hierarchal organization features, I would probably use them for everything.

All in all, with all the talk about tools for thought, it's way behind a lot of other areas of software despite having no real technical challenges besides the difficulty of maintaining a cross platform set of apps with all the integrations and widgets and performance optimizations.

I guess that's the problem, there's a lot of tedium and no interesting algorithms, so it doesn't get as much interest.
I am interested in programming language theory and development but I am a beginner in both.

Do JIT compilers suffer from boxing pointer chasing primitives since everything is an object and not a memory location value type?

Can hot loops over arrays be efficient if every item in the array is a pointer?

Second Bitwarden. Pretty cheap, good customer service. You can self-host if you prefer that route. The source code is on GitHub.

I too was disappointed with "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery."

My first struggle with the movie is that it breaks the first rule of a good mystery story in that you need the audience to have enough information that they can plausibly solve the crime themselves. Glass Onion only provides information when it becomes relevant to move the plot along. You could have never known certain things, you could have never even guessed at them because the information did not exist right up until it was needed in the story.This happens repeatedly. Midway through there is a plot twist that you could have never guessed or seen coming and that pretty much ends any sense of suspense or intrigue.

I also don't care about any of the people in the story as people or characters nor do I find any of their relationships convincing. It seems implausible that any of them would have ever been friends. Close your eyes and imagine these people hanging out at a bar together and you can't. How did they interact? What was their friendship like? You never see it and so the weight of the strain of the existing relationship isn't ever fully felt. The characters in a "Knives Out" were caricatures too, but they were family, not friends. Everyone knows that strain. Everyone can relate to that relationship dynamic. You don't get to choose family. Friends tend to match each other to some extent. Give them some kind of connection. They are all trivia nerds and were a trivia team. Anything.

With all that said, I want to rewatch "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery." I want to see how much was visible in scene. How much could I have technically figured out. It is an interesting movie, I am just not sure it is a very good one.
As someone who also had kids too late, that's a symptom of having kids too late. Not only are you more aged and worn out but your parents are also too old or dead by forty to provide consistent childcare relief in those situations. I had my first kid at 37 and it was really weird because i got to watch my parents go from kind of ok to assist with childcare to unable to do a ton as i got to 40 and they got into their late 60s. If you are kucky enough to have parents that can provide childcare use your holiday to visit them and take advantage of that, they will probably like seei g your kidbin small doses and the breaks make the holiday wonderful
The more conventional name for what you are calling "nameable" is "computable": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computable_number The computable numbers are indeed countable, because they are defined by a set of Turing Machines, which are themselves countable.

They're an interesting set of numbers, but they're a complicated thing to do work with because of the "holes" in them. For instance, see the section in that article labelled "Use in place of the reals". To see how bad missing things like supremums can be, consider something like this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vV7ZuouUSfs That video is about the difficulty/impossibility of defining calculus over the rational numbers, which is a simpler lens to see the problems that can arise when you're unable to define some simple properties that you may be so used to you don't realize it. Imagining how that can go wrong with a different set of "holes" in the number line is not too much of a strain after that.

For all their paradoxes and oddities, and the unlikelihood of them corresponding to anything actually "real" in the real world, the real numbers are popular in math for a reason.
Not sure if there's a better way to contact you, but it looks like all the "Next part"/"Previous part" links on the part pages are broken.
e.g. https://hypermedia.systems/book/part/hypermedia-concepts/ links to https://hypermedia.systems/book/part/2, which 404s. It should actually link to https://hypermedia.systems/book/part/htmx/.
In this case the actor isn't the bee but the bee's genetic programming, which only propagates via the queen and hive. If the programming allows a bee to cary a fatal disease back to the hive, the program ceases to propagate and may cease to exist. This provides strong selection pressure against fouling the hive.

Sounds like we need computer languages that are better at preventing bugs. Throw in a little static analysis and AI assistants become more useful.

Maybe start with Haskell?
How did JJ Abrams come into it?
I think the book The World of Bees by Charles D. Michener covers that subject. There's a pdf of that book on the net.
We really enjoyed it, loved the twists and turns. Without spoiling it, the seen with Benoit and the iPad and crossbow was amazing on many different levels. Someone else mentioned Star Wars The Last Jedi, and that was my favorite of the sequel trilogy (although not without flaws!), so I think I just really enjoy the director. Some people don't, which is fair, whereas I find JJ Abrams to be dull and uninspired and utterly lacking in depth, the complete opposite of Rian's work.

The film missed a couple of beats for me, so it isn't perfect by any means (neither was Last Jedi!), but it was really entertaining and clever.

To me a "super-organism" means seeing the whole instead of the parts. When I speak about myself, I don't say: my hands did, my feet walked. I say: I did, I walked.
In my mind, I don't picture the multitude of cells composing my body as individual organisms, rather as parts of a single unit.
News from Christmas Eve (Dec 24), Google Translated:

There were 39 new deaths in Hong Kong today, of which
37 died in public hospitals and 2 were reported by
public mortuaries.

There are 37 newly reported deaths of patients infected
with the new coronavirus, including 23 males and 14
females, aged between 50 and 104 years old.

Among the newly reported deceased patients, 14 were
from institutions.

As for vaccination, 5 had no injection information, 3
received 4 left injections, 25 received 3 left
injections, 2 received 2 left injections, and 2
received 1 left injection.

Of the 39 deceased, all of whom were 50+ and 14 of whom were care home residents, only 5 were unvaccinated, 3 had received 4 shots, and 33 of the 39 had received at least 2 shots. That matches or exceeds the vaccination rate for their age demographics.

>Listen to your betters without question, for they know better than you.

The entire Jedi thread throughout all of Star Wars is like that. An over 20-year old essay by David Brin goes into this at length. https://www.davidbrin.com/nonfiction/starwars1.html

I didn't love the sequel trilogy--though it was better than the prequels. (Although truth be told, the Phantom Menace and Jar-jar in particular so poisoned the well for the prequels that I think otherwise #2 and #3 would have been looked on more favorably. See also Machete order.)
I am pretty sure you hit the spot. I do not even write notes these days. I just work and if it is important enough for me, I trust my brain to recall. If it can't recall, I search the web. However, this time I have different context so each new search is unique. I discover different ways of doing things. Sometimes, it's better than what I used to do. As a result, I only focus on high level problem solving. This way, I don't care about small details and remain faithful to general context. What do I gain from this? Long term ability to solve problem. Each problem I solve, makes me think more on my thinking process. As a result, I optimized surroundings in a way it helps me think and reason rather than note and forget.
