Crops have a shelf life and a consumption window - they are perishable. There’s enormous investment going on in technologies to enhance the storage of downstream products. That will pay off, in the same way that the excess crops of the Ohio valley were profitable once they could be converted to alcohol. Today’s glut is an abundance of raw material that indicates demand for some method to store the product longer.

> Ok, reasonable, but other frontend Ui toolkits (eg. Vue, Svelte before Sveltekit, etc.) seem to be able to handle this without going "enterprise" levels of complication.

I've used Vue (2.0) and React extensively. I find them to be pretty equal in terms of complexity on reasonably large projects.

But on the other hand you have a popular platform, with a lot of people who can help, and with which some people are already used to, that you could deploy internally and use as some sort of internal messageboard that can be easily used from anywhere, with an official and third-party mobile apps already available.
Please don't do this. It only makes things worse.

Real estate is not really a space problem; we have a lot of nice, uninhabited land all over the globe. The problem is that people want to live near denser areas for various reasons and reducing the world population will (probably) only reduce the number of dense areas, but not the housing problem within them.
The American GIs after the war loved to mangle Japanese:

Japanese person "Ohio gazimus!"

GI: "Well, Kentucky gazimus to you, too!"

or:

GI: "No toucha my mustache!"

Things went the other way, too. My dad would collect Japanese flyers aimed at GIs with horribly mangled English.
Some of my HN comments will simultaneously have only very critical replies and lots of upvotes. It’s hard to interpret that.
I mean, China is pretty good at creating land.
If Z is negative, it's certainly not worth taking the deal. My point was it wasn't worth JPM taking the deal for positive Zs (up to some value). If Z is zero or negative, it obviously isn't worth taking the deal.

That is, not only is Y=X a bad deal, but Y=X+Z is a bad deal for a good deal of positive Zs. Up to Zmax which is a positive value. For all values of Z < Zmax (including negative Zs) it's bad for JPM

Oh, the memories. The only time I ever saw a WinPE in practice is in high school, when a friend made a stripped down version of Windows that booted straight to StarCraft: Brood War. A nice proof of concept, but wasn't used much in practice, as every single student-accessible computer would somehow, organically, grow an SC:BW copy within few hours of being turned on without it.
Everything physical you can buy is made up of things that are of a finite amount and were not created by humans.

Where specifically in the article do you believe that the publications are wrongly interpreted?

Your extremely naive and simplified view of how vaccination, mutation, and immune escape work is contradicted by many observed phenomena in epidemiology, which is often rife with subtle feedback mechanisms and surprising or counterintuitive outcomes. Not to mention the fact that the vaccines can't be reducing the number of mutations since they aren't preventing infections.
Ah, my topic of specialty. I've been doing this for a decade, but only figured it out over the past ~5 years.

Pros:

- Inbound Marketing: You not only are able to bring part of your work with you between jobs, but your thinking and learning in public demonstrates your interest, expertise, and growth over time such that it tends to attract jobs and other opportunities to you (including opps that are not formally open to everyone yet)

- Bloom's Taxonomy: Retain more of what you learn by writing it down in your own words rather than simply holding it in your head

- The 1% Rule: 99% of people lurk, less than 1% make content, you stand out in your field simply by saying something

- Cunningham's Law: “The best way to get the right answer on the Internet is not to ask a question; it’s to post the wrong answer.” Being publicly wrong attracts teachers, as long as you don’t do it in such
high quantity that people give up on you altogether. Conversely, once
you’ve gotten something wrong in public, you never forget it.

- Positive Reinforcement: Building in a social feedback mechanism to
your learning encourages more learning. As you build a track record
and embark on more ambitious projects with implicit future promise,
your public activity becomes a Commitment Device.

- Productizing Yourself: well, Naval said it best so I'll just drop a link https://nav.al/productize-yourself

Cons:

- It takes extra effort to write down something you're already thinking. E.g. it can feel like pure overhead to write down notes on a conversation you just had or talk you just saw. However if you agree that you shouldnt be optimizing for quantity of content consumed, rather the quantity and quality of what you *retain*, then the optimal write-read ratio is higher than 0 (I think 10-20% is a good range).

- You may get things wrong, sometimes embarrassingly so. Separate your (past) thinking and writing from your identity. http://www.paulgraham.com/identity.html

- You may hurt people's feelings by omitting their contributions, saying something you didn't mean, or saying something you regret. A bad enough case can lose you friendships and opportunities forever. So you'll have to learn how to filter what you say through the lens of other people's egos and your own fog of ignorance. Especially be careful about thinking in public about confidential work stuff or other private secrets, and err on the side of caution when it involves other people.

- Some people might see your mistakes and judge you harshly since they know better. This can be mitigated by demonstrating both intent and ability to learn quickly over time and respond well to criticism.

Bad for small businesses, but potentially good for purchasers (i.e. low prices). Unfortunate for those looking to get rich, but legal weed is essentially farming, and no one thinks of farming as easy money. It’s like starting your own brewery or vineyard/winery. They are commodity products, not huge moneymakers.
> Not only that, he himself is a "heretic" to Catholics for believing that Pope Francis is some kind of impostor installed by the liberal MSM media.

Technically, believing a valid papal election did not occur and that others believe in it only because of a fraud conspiracy when such an election did occur is not heretical, even from the perspective of the doctrine of the part of the Church that recognizes the election.

I'm not saying that this guy isn’t a heretic from the point of view of (what the MSM describes as, from his PoV) the Catholic heirarchy, or even that his sedevacantism isn’t rooted in heresy, just that the particular view pointed to isn’t heretical on the surface (since it doesn't touch on, much less conflict with, any essential doctrine.)
Wonder why the art was "lost" (maybe between 2008 and now, as the title does not contain th word)? I guess it is true that with computer program one does not have to rely an books. However, looking at the civil engineering books of my wife, which a full of nomograms, I would not consider it lost. I guess they follow a similar fate as logarithmic tables.

I don't know what should means, but I've never worked anywhere where at one point a coworker doesn't subtly throw another one under the bus. "I would have gotten that done but I didn't get needed data until Friday". "John told me this was a higher priority." "Zach told me he'd have that done by Tuesday"

Many of the managers I've worked with spend as much if not more time thinking about CYA/metrics/etc... than accomplishing the tasks they're given. And the ones that don't spend a lot of time developing relationships instead.

I post on LinkedIn, Stack Exchange, and this site using my real name.

The benefit of doing so is that I have to keep myself in check and really think before I write - yes, there are edits and deletions - and overall the effect has been very positive for me.

Being active on the chemistry SE site has actually proven to be of value in getting jobs related to chemistry - at least 3 employers have said it was useful to see some of my answers - so that is also good.

On the negative side? As far as I know, there is only one other person on the planet who shares my first and last name combination (different middle initial, and turns out to be a distant relative) so there might come a day when I have to do some reputation control should someone impersonate me: but that's not something with a lot of upside :)
Excellent writeup and a good reminder that humans man the ships/software we all rely on in our daily lives. God speed to the next project and people involved for the coming decade :)
> (WSL2 obviously included if you think about it...)

It's not "obviously" included. WSL doesn't have any particular reason to need the store, and there used to be a version that didn't need the store. I don't know why you would expect people to know exactly what happens.

It's not like all the other random console commands get removed.

I have also found some Airbnb ads to be inaccurate.

Online descriptions and reviews should be more regulated.

Google, for instance, keeps removing legitimate reviews from myself and others regarding a builder that rented / sold houses with horrible snagging problems, e.g. bursting pipes and leaky roofs.

I think it's more like "What if you could have email, but your posts only go to the people you want them to?" I think that's pretty easy with Gmail, for the most part, but with Mastodon it's harder because it inverts that control—anyone can follow you (or send a follow request), and it's harder to police every follower individually. This is combined with the fact that most accounts are available anonymously on the web, but it's not really necessary (many are not, for instance, and even the ones that are aren't really convenient to access that way—for bad-faith actors, it's more convenient to sign up for an account on mastodon.social or some other "well known" server and then find posts that way by browsing timelines).
I saw this tons back then, too. Even back in the paleo-web you’d see people writing nested for loops, sometimes obscured by functions or a class structure but sometimes just the adjacent HTML.

As you noted, this is one of the reasons why client-side JavaScript often falls far short of the envisioned benefits. In both cases, however, I would suggest that while the trend is real and should inform your architecture the most important thing is to routinely use your monitoring. Different apps have different performance challenges but they all need to be observable and I’ve seen so many times where people wasted tons of time and resources shooting in the dark because they didn’t have granular monitoring or thought it was too hard.

One of the best example I had was a while back when I inherited a Django codebase which was too slow. One of the developers had spent a couple days rewriting everything in Jinja2 because “Django is slow”, introducing the bugs you’d expect and leading to lots of new custom code to maintain (such as 3 versions of the human size formatting function). Performance didn’t budge. Six months later, I saw the MySQL query counter spiraling up on every page view, installed Django Debug Toolbar, looked at the queries, and spent an afternoon reverting all of the templates and fixing the N+1 queries which had always been the problem. That was tens of thousands of lines of code churn all wasted for what was eventually maybe 50 lines changed against the original codebase.

One thing I introduced which worked well was a test hook which failed based on the query counts for a view. That caught most N+1 issues and is conveniently easy to implement with almost any model.
If it really was you wouldn't have to push it so hard on every platform.

Oh. Good point about the admins. I somehow missed that.
One thing I dislike is the inability to disable ACH for a given account. I really want to use an account for safekeeping that can’t have a check or ACH transaction run against it, rather I’d have to use banks internal tool to move funds. Does this exist?

Of course, but that has no practical implications in the near or perhaps even distant future.

Even using the ocean as a fresh water source — which is right here on earth — is a challenge with significant hurdles to overcome.

Even with near infinite land it will presumably be a long, long time before common people can set out into this new frontier and carve out anything like a familiar, safe, let alone comfortable life.

G+'s implementation kind of broke communities though?

Each individual having their own personal view of their circles meant that you couldn't reliably know which of your friends had seen the stuff your reading.

That makes it really hard to talk about (Hey did you see X?, no what's X? Oh... oops?).

I like the theory of being able to organise my relationships into nice little buckets, but that's absolutely not how social things work.
I am working on Magny [1] for the last 5 months. It is a universal search service, like a command palette. For those who don't know what a command palette and how SaaS companies use it, refer to [2].

Basically, you sign up for the service, integrate in your SaaS app, add commands and your users will be able to reach to actions/documentation/menus easily with Cmd-K.

The biggest hurdle is that there are several command palette libraries [3] but not many (even not a handful) services, hence we are trying to build something which is fairly new to others.

The platform is based on PostgreSQL, Nodejs, GraphQL and React Native, running on AWS.

We were supposed to announce it on December but decided to build a few more (required) features after talking to several product managers.

Just because a policy does not solve a problem outright does not make it symbolic. The article discusses other measures that have already been implemented and points out that current housing prices are way off their peak from a year ago. If this policy further reduces demand even a little, that will have an impact on the trajectory of housing prices. That's not symbolism.
Merely mentioning the publication a writer voluntarily contributes to is not ad hominem are you serious lol. That is a simple fact about their body of work.

It is also not prejudiced to evaluate a single work of a writer in its context within their oeuvre, and to consider your own knowledge of their previous works when evaluating a new one. That is merely judgement, friend.

You might would have us so carefully prune away context that judgement becomes impossible, but it's not a moral failure of others that they approach this differently.

Wait until you hear about how followers only posts actually work. An analogy would be Microsoft can't figure out how to get email addressing to work in Outlook, so they send every email to every server, and then Exchange does some magic filtering and tells Outlook which of the emails in your inbox should be visible. Then somebody writes an alternative SMTP server that allows viewing of these hidden messages, and Microsoft sues them.
Yeah, early precursors to railroads (cable railways used for mines) did just this :-D , and there were even passenger railways that used cable haulage as the form of motive power!

This year I don't anticipate having much free time, so I'm trying to engage more contributors in side projects,

* Automotive ECU tooling, https://github.com/bri3d/VW_Flash

* DJI FPV forward/reverse/all sorts engineering, https://github.com/fpv-wtf

I've been working a lot with various folks using Discord and contributions are gradually shifting from me towards others, which has been great to see. As the old adage goes, teaching a project is truly the final form of knowing one - much harder than hacking alone, but ultimately more fulfilling.

When I started my automotive ECU journey my goal was to demystify the "tuning" scene for a broader software engineering community, and I think I've generally been successful at this.
It looks well rehearsed because by the time you see it, usually it has been rehearsed.

Comedians bomb in small clubs so they shine on the big stage. Writers like me publish blog posts and articles so the ideas that make it into books are battle tested. The podcast episode that goes viral is usually the 10th+ time that podcaster has said the same thing in slight variations.

TV and radio hosts keep saying the same things and having similar conversations over and over daily for decades.
Oven (YCS19) | https://bun.sh | Software Engineer | San Francisco or Remote (worldwide) | Full-time or Contract

Oven is on a mission to make JavaScript faster and simpler. That's why we launched Bun, a fast all-in-one JavaScript runtime, bundler, and package manager. We're looking for people to help us build the future of JavaScript and infrastructure on the Internet.

* Runtime Engineer (Zig or C/C++): https://oven.rippling-ats.com/job/535740/runtime-engineer-zi...

* Software Engineer (JavaScript, part-time): https://oven.rippling-ats.com/job/535800/software-engineer-j...

We've raised $7M from Kleiner Perkins, YCombinator (S19), and Guillermo Rauch to make JavaScript faster and simpler. Bun is just the start for Oven. Oven will offer a serverless platform that makes it refreshingly easy for developers to deploy applications with Bun.

There's not as much bloatware in Windows 11 as you might think - most of it is links to install applcations, not the applications themselves. Part of it is due to advertising - you're actually getting Windows license a bit cheaper in exchange for these "features".

But you can disable and remove it - manually. These scripts do it automatically for you as a convenience but the ability is there.

In enterprise versions of Windows, there's tighter control and less "features"/bloatware installed by default, and you can use GPOs and other settings to deal with it very easily. This of course comes at a cost that most endusers don't want to pay.

Feel free to purchase the non home versions of Windows and you will find there _is_ a choice.
