> car owners are still massively in front on fuel costs

For me fuel cost is only half the story. Refuel time is the other half.

"Fast chargers" are anything but fast. I've got better things to do with my life than sit around twiddling my thumbs at some godforsaken recharge station for 40 minutes.

Meanwhile with petrol/diesel, I can turn up with the car on the red-line and I can be full to the brim in what, 5 minutes ? 10 max ? Especially if I'm paying using the app on my phone.

The other elephant in the room that the electric world carefully skirt around is that those massive batteries in their car are not exactly environmentally friendly, especially when it comes to EoL time.

For me the whole electric car thing is still a bit immature, I'll wait a bit longer.
> I'm inclined to share the sentiment for the young student going to NYU, the intern at a museum/art gallery, or the actor waiting tables while auditioning and doing off broadway. They made a choice, and clearly think the city can offer them enough to deal with poverty and desperation.

Perhaps I missed these personas in the original article, but these are very charitable examples of "poverty and desperation". Most people interning at museums and art galleries (in my experience) come from families who can at least afford to subsidize the cost of living in NYC. Waiting tables while auditioning and doing off broadway is actually a pretty decent way to earn a living - I had/have friends who have been doing that for 15-20 years and earn solid incomes, in some cases enough to raise a family. I went to nyu, and while it was a while ago, I'm told that if anything, NYU students are more privileged than they were when I went there.

The real examples of poverty and desperation are the immigrants who are effectively forced to work in sweatshop conditions, or the women who pick up hours here and there in childcare in their neighborhood, or the security guards who live out of their cars or in homeless shelters because they don't get paid enough to end up in a stable living environment.

In some cases, they don't have a network outside of NYC they could lean on, or don't have the resources to get to another city, or are (justifiably) scared of what would happen when they got there.
just did the math and you're right. I'm paying the equivalent of a full-time employee at $16 / hr just in rent. Pretty wild when you put it that way...
Not just that, but in a world where (particularly for poor and immigrant communities) employment is frequently informal and based on social and family networks ("The restaurant my cousin works at is hiring" or "My brother's construction gig needs some extra hands on Friday"), moving to another city means giving up a huge portion of your social capital and possibly all of your earning potential, as well as your (similarly informal) safety net.
Precisely. There are very few things that I give the city credit for with respect to how it treats its homeless and unhoused populations, but categorization is one of them: the city doesn't attempt to sweep the problem under the rug by pretending that shelters (including family shelters) are long-term housing solutions that offer stable lives for their residents.

That is what it is meant to describe, but it must also have a definition based on qualifying metrics. If sharing an apartment is tantamount to living below minimum standards, then there is a mismatch with it's descriptor, since wages that don't cover an entire one-bedroom does not necessitate that one is dangerously close to requiring public assistance.
You are right that function may evolve over time and name may not be completely accurate but it's still partially accurate opposed to being being completely inaccurate. In your example papersupplier, I would want to create a new site for staples or better create a new site for all categories of stationary instead of modifying the old one.

I like the idea of having a generic but still descriptive name.
Fellow software dev here,

Your post just reads like the equivalent of "I just need some nerd to do my app for like 50 bucks and then I'll be rich".

I think you should stop immediately. Please try to not take this the wrong way as much as you can, but you sound completely oblivious of what product design, hardware engineering and industrial production of something entails.

Obviously you don't know, but the worst part is I'm afraid you don't want to know and therefor you place little value/difficulty in the hardware part.

If you only spend your money, I would say go ahead, it would be a very valuable lesson.
I use for things that I could do with find and replace (often requiring regex) but I find it faster/easier to just use multiple cursors. With multiple cursors I can convert a PHP array to JSON or JS very easily or take a list of params and turn it in to an object. I do this often when creating client-side TypeScript interfaces for the data the server is going to spit back at me. Example:

* I just select `public` on my first PHP class property

* Use multiple cursors to select all `public`'s that are before the properties I want (Normally by adding 1 selection at a time since I only want the props, not the public methods)

* Arrow over right 3 times (Now my cursor is right before the property names, after the `$`, this is PHP remember)

* Hold shift + control

* Arrow once more to the right (now the variable names are selected)

* Hit Cmd+c (copy all variable names)

* Open new IMyInterfaceDTO.ts file

* Type `export interface IMyInterfaceDTO { <cursor is here now> }`

* Paste in all my variables between the `{}`

* Select the new-line between each variable (I want a cursor before each variable name)

* Then add in `: string;` after each variable (string is the most common, I then manually change it to number/boolean/etc on the props that need it)

Done, now I have a TypeScript interface that matches my php class that gets turned into JSON.

Here is an example of what I'm talking about: https://cs.joshstrange.com/jlH4BnT3

Yes, I could accomplish the same thing with find and replace using a regex but this lets me see each step of the transformation and react easier. Maybe if I was a regex pro I'd feel differently but this method works really well for me and how my brain works. I know it's a lot of steps but I do it reflexively almost on autopilot verses having to stop and think about a regex.
I’m a “biological optimist” and think a lot of what we consider “bad” can be and often is at least somewhat adaptive. Even things like aging and death; there are ways to age and die adaptively to give room to the next generation, to allow societal renewal/avoid sclerosis, etc. My understanding is that aging is thought to be in part an evolutionary adaptation against cancer, and a kind of pattern of creative destruction we see all over the place in both nature and society. There are also maladaptive tragic ways to age without remembering/learning how to live in your context, and maladaptive things like premature aging, disease, etc.

All adaptation is contextual. This picture is probably familiar to a lot of people, and is a perfect illustration of what I’m talking about: https://www.boredpanda.com/athlete-body-types-comparison-how...

There is no universal “better”. At any age, in any environment, in any physical condition, there are contextually appropriate optimums, and always two categories of direction: 1) using whatever tools are at your disposal to adapt as much as you can while accepting (and testing) limitations 2) ignoring what tools you do and don’t have and either giving up or trying to get the world to adapt to you.

The first direction is always better.

I agree that web development is complex. I disagree that abstraction layers add complexity. Abstraction layers solve problems. If you don't have the problems that these abstraction layers solve, then you might perceive that as complex, but most people actually do experience these problems.

The web is not just for websites anymore, it's a universal platform for app distribution. This means web apps can instantly be made available to billions of users. You noticed that yourself. This brings all kinds of complexity that these layers solve. They absorb complexity, not add it. So I don't understand why you would say things have gotten "bad". Things were way worse, but individial contributors never noticed.

My biggest pain point with programming is I am constantly rebuilding mental models of software projects.

I think its a problem with the way we write software. I think all code we write should be visualizable at different levels of granularity, and should be able to show data flowing through it inline. We have all these principles about writing good software such as it should be testable, performant, self-documenting...but I would argue the most important thing is that it should be visualizable! And easily debuggable.

---

I would suggest using a visual debugger and an IDE with static call hierarchy features (sometimes called find usages or find all references).

You should think about how you would build it from scratch. Then fit the existing API to your own mental model of how you would build it. Then it will be easier to understand why people did things a certain way. Many times I will see someone's code and wonder why they came up with such a complicated abstraction layer, but then when you build it yourself you see how it comes very naturally. The problem is for most projects you are looking at the end result of someone else's journey of building from scratch and refactoring along the way as needed.

> The living wage model does not allow for what many consider the basic necessities enjoyed by many Americans.

Call it whatever you want... New York being one of the richest states in the United States, saying that the median person in New York cannot afford "what many consider the basic necessities enjoyed by many Americans" is a contradiction. The idea that 60% of New Yorkers are not even at "subsistence" level of wages just makes no sense.
Nice.

Let me also put this idea out there that I've fantasized about (and basically just decided to make in "analog" by cutting up paper)

A thing that lets you enter multiple chords (like you might see on e.g. the guitar tab/chord site) and shows multiple rows of keyboards so that it's easy to see the progressions and exactly how each note moves.

Even with my "analog" version I really like how e.g. "Dm to F" doesn't naturally yet for me trigger any similarity, but when I look on my little pieces of paper, it's just like, oh, the D becomes a C and that's the only difference, and also it's easy to see the possible fingerings of multiple inversions.

The letter frames recent advances like ChatGPT as positive indicators for Scale's future business. However, task specific bespoke human data annotation may fall away to datasets generated by massive self supervised multi-modal models. The other day, I saw that one of these image generation models can be prompted to create image-semantic mask pairs. And I wouldn't be surprised if ChatGPT could generate text along side named entity labels for specialized domains. The holy grail for AI has always been obviating the need for manual annotation and increased efficiency on the data we do have. Scale's data annotation business seems at odds with the core goals of AI researchers, and may dry up as those goals are increasingly realized.

I don't have recent figures handy, but I think 18% qualifies as "many" when you are talking about potentially tens of millions of affected individuals (including dependents).

The argument against living wage isn't bootstrapping a strategic industry or national defense, it's so that e.g. Walmart can earn $13k in profit per employee instead of (say) $10k profit per employee. It's definitely a legitimate public policy discussion as to whether subsidizing businesses like these is an appropriate use of taxpayer funds.

It has a lot more to do with artificial constraints on supply that developers have some part in continuing, as do wealthy homeowners who don't want to let anyone else in.

That is a comparison of apples to oranges, and does not apply to induction vs. gas. With that it is the opposite. Yes, induction is even faster than gas, and more precise, while way more convenient because the only thing getting hot is the pot or pan. You even can put a sheet of paper below the pot, it will be brown, but only from the residual heat radiating out of the pot. It won't burn!

I said nothing about the link between crash diets and health issues in my post. I only addressed this point in the OP:

> there's some evidence that the health risks associated with increased BMI are partially an artifact of weight loss diets

which is misleading at best - there is a huge amount of evidence that fat accumulation directly leads to health issues.

I am not moralizing in any way, I don't see anything in my original comment which indicated I'm passing moral judgement at all. I am simply stating that the health consequences of obesity are well known, and the causal direction is clear - obesity itself causes health problems. Again, I'm not passing judgement here - in fact I find the common refrain "eat less, move more" to be an extreme oversimplification of the problem, and I'm well aware that diet change is neither easy nor sufficient to solve the obesity problem. I'm just pushing back on the idea that crash diets are what cause the primary health issues associated with obesity - it's simply not true, and there's a mountain of evidence to back that up.
No need for us to continue this back and forth because I feel like I've already made and proven my point, and you yours.

The process of good literature is not unique to book writing, but it does skew long. The attempt to distill knowledge or storytelling into its shortest form does have severe limitations.

Writing that is short in length is more likely to lack value, and vice verse. As a rule.

However I still must insist my original point, that saying you are reading a "book," while on average means what you are reading is more valuable than say a tweet, is not NECESSARILY indicative that you are reading something GOOD. The term "book" is not a synonym for "good literature."

It is possible, however unlikely, that reading a great piece of relatively short journalism can be infinitely more valuable than reading a book written by a complete idiot.

But of course I will cede that books are usually better, and long form content is usually better.

Although I have to say the dream of many writers is to be as succinct as possible, which means shortening language. The idea here is that good writing would become shorter and shorter over time.

I recently built our React DevTools support for Chromium. I used our time-travel debugging backend to inject the RDT logic into the paused browser at every React commit to extract the tree operations data.

This post covers how the React DevTools work, how our backend protocol API makes it possible to introspect the runtime behavior of a recorded app, and how I used those together to build this functionality.

This approach was only possible because of the magic of Replay's time-travel debugging! It also required a deep dive into the guts of the React DevTools implementation.

Had a lot of fun working on this :)

> but "60% of new yorkers are not earning a living wage" is inaccurate

If we define living way as proper healthcare, paid time off, paid sick leave, adequate income to put into savings/retirement.. enough money for education, childcare.... then do you think that number is inaccurate?

I sure don't. And this doesn't have much to do with new york. At least half of the US population lives under these conditions.. probably even more.

The term living wage means more than putting a roof over your head and having a job. It's being able to not feel basically like a slave.
The term has been defined in an ivory tower...

So what measure would satisfy you? It would seem that numbers coming from people that study the topic extensively is too "ivory tower" for you, so what measure is acceptable?
