> They're reducing the need for pesticides and fungicides by controlling the ambient environment around the plants.

Not just the ambient environment. When you go soilless through hydroponics, you eliminate a lot of soil borne disease issues. Even soil control through pots instead of direct ground contact prevents a lot of problems wiggling around.
The "myths" are true statistical generalizations. For example:

"Myth: Asian Americans are high earning and well educated

Asian Americans have a median household income of around $78,000 a year, which is higher than the national median of about $66,000."
I don’t know why. Most businesses work on projects that are not strictly related to the core product. Imagine how much cheaper your iPhone would be if you weren’t subsidizing apple car, augmented reality research, etc.
Go for the senior. You might also try to find a company with more casual engineering practices - in my experience, those are more pleasant jobs and produce better software quicker than orgs more focused on process, best practices, etc.
You should be able to punish people even though there's reasonable doubt that they are culpable? Are you arguing for a "balance of probabilities" standard? Or that it's worth punishing some innocents so that the guilty are also punished?
A lot of these are also used for productive purposes. I bought a Threadripper to speed up compile times on my open source project. If I was running a slower CPU that's a net loss to society because I'd be less productive. Now, I can afford it and did, but others cannot. It's just wasteful of potential.
Yes, like drugs, inflations everything can be great just as long as you can “adjust” your expectations.

I think next step is to adjust time for some people so they think you have lived 100 years while they actually just lived 30.
It's consistent with the use of 'render' or 'paint' to describe what a UI component does to, well, render itself. For most UI systems this has involved higher level APIs than directly pushing pixels for a long time.
> we are reaching a point where humanity will be put in its place by AGI. We are not that impressive as a species, and we sure as hell are not special.

We probably will have bad stuff happen to us due to ai. But should we create true AGI, that would be special. We’d be gods, the creator. Our creation would likely destroy us, but it still would be a impressive feat.
I tried time cube, but the content was too large.

So I tried the onion.

"The Onion is a website that covers a variety of topics including news, entertainment, sports, opinion, local and politics. It features articles, videos, and infographics about a wide range of current events, pop culture, and other topics. The website also has a section where readers can watch videos, listen to podcasts, and view cartoons. The Onion covers a wide range of topics and provides readers with informative and entertaining content."

Guess GPT doesn't understand sarcasm yet.
There is a difference between promising and not delivering, and firing employees for leaking a photo of an upcoming product. I think Apple is on the narcissistic spectrum of wanting to induldge in the moment and show off their brilliance. It's good to have a policy of not promising specific products or features if they're not sure. But their secrecy policy goes far beyond that, and includes silencing employees for workplace abuses. Apple is not a good company in the moral sense. They are good at building stuff. That's all the credit they deserve.

If you don't do server side rendering, you don't (almost) automatically get a set of nice REST endpoints that return JSON/XML/ETC?
I get that the abstraction might be nice for security, but at least for corporate intranet applications, a nicely structured, secured (e.g ODATA) webapi you query for client side rendering has the added benefit that it can be invoked programmatically with REST by other authorized parties.
Obviously, you want the standard DDoS and security protections, but this fact alone, has turned me off server side rendering alone.
Isn't it also nice from a computation cost standpoint to let the client do the rendering? I suppose UX could suffer and for external facing apps, this is likely of the utmost importance.
Happy to be educated if I'm unaware of something else.
Oh, I agree! I didn't mean to imply that being concerned with the future isn't critically important. It is. I like how you put it better -- it's that they do it so badly.
Of course they take money, but they hopefully also create real value.

Providing liquidity a fraction of a microsecond faster than a competitor doesn't seem like real value to me, more like a cover story so that politics doesn't outright forbid high-speed quantitative trading.
true. and those of us that are not psychopaths dont even have to think about it. it just happens.

Yes indeed! The core aspect, however, is that your server is returning fragments of html that htmx places in the DOM extremely quickly. They have pretty good examples on their site illustrating some "modern" UI patterns.

As an example, you may have an HTML table on your page that you want to insert a new row for some reason on let's say a button click. You place some attributes that htmx understands on your button that will call for the TR HTML chunk from the server. You can imagine replacing all the rows for a paging click etc.

Again check out the example for cool stuff.
Switched from a LaTeX based CV [1] (source [2]) to a Vue based one [3] (source [4]).

My new CV is more maintainable and I can do things that aren't really straightforward with LaTeX (multi page table), but one of the issues is rendering it to PDF. So far the best solution I've found is to use Puppeteer.

In any case I think that the result is pretty cool (https://cv.denv.it), but almost no one accepts "web based CVs" (or at least, they are not that common).

If it’s a reasonable price I don’t mind paying a bit to keep my hobby projects going. To be honest I’m surprised I’ve had free access to Twitter’s graph for so long.

That said, I’m pissed off at Musk for giving so little time, and so little information.

I realise he needs to sort out the bot problem, and needs to diversify Twitter’s revenue streams, but developers have helped create legitimate content on the network, and helped invent a useful ecosystem around it, which in turn has helped Twitter grow its native user base and brand.
There's a lot of fan fiction out there in the Star Trek & Wars universes, maybe even some crossover stories. If the GPT training model includes that, then it might be fairly confident about an unfortunate incident on the Millennium Falcon involving Luke Skywalker and tribbles. Or does it understand the idea of "canon"?

But it’s not. There are tons and tons of “union laws” that treat unions very differently than any other entity.

Some of these laws hurt unions, others help.

For example, a union contract can’t require an employer to hire only union members.

That would create a situation where people would apply to the union first, and if they union accepted them, then they apply for the job.

That would give unions too much power, so it’s not allowed.

Another law forbids sympathy strikes. Unions can only strike against their own employers, not in sympathy with other strikers.

Modern labor law also seeks to discourage strikes by using a war-game like approach to negotiating. Maybe a good idea, maybe not. But certainly not something that happens for non-union orgs.

If we adopted a “hands off” approach to unions, we could easily wind up with insanely powerful unions.

If 2% of the working population went on strike simultaneously, the economy would stop working quickly.

So general strikes are very illegal, even though they are 100% in accord with libertarian ideology.

I'm not sure it's a "contradiction" so much as a weird bending/re-branding of the term "server-side rendering". One of many issues with the article
Not saying these are necessarily all yours but the cluster of accounts O__________O, billme, saycheese, wonderous, endlessly, nxzero, v2hle0thslzrav2 are all in each others top 5 or so which is usually a sign of a good match and unless you are saying that you never revealed any identifying info in any of the several hundred comments you have made there is likely some loss of anonymity. If you used a VPN consistently on one account but didn't on one of your earlier accounts then the whole point of the VPN goes right out the window if someone say gets a subpoena.
The fact that the first person you mention is "your best friend" is an indication of the importance you're placing on it. Nobody is using a nom de plume for their electric bill, you're being deliberately obtuse.
This is not about effective altruism as in the generic practice of high-impact giving, it relates to a highly specific subculture of EA proponents. "Polycules", 'nuff said. These are not appropriate topics in a professional discussion among strangers.
While little odd, it’s honestly my position that I don’t have a name; happy to explain, but that’s my position. If people are dead set on having a name to call me, just suggest they pick a name and that’s name we use; for example, today guy I have known a few weeks decided I was a “Bob” and we joked about it.

It clearly limits options I have, for example, I don’t drive, but for whatever reason it’s hobby I enjoy, one of the few I have kept up with. One of reason currently I continue to remain anonymous is it is an easy way to engage people on a topic that I sincerely believe is important, that being the right to privacy.
This is so silly. He added his username to a permissions config file. I've looked at the CL. It's really not exciting.
What is a software engineer?
Sounds like this guy didn't "learn" anything. He just wasn't acquainted with the internet before.

Also, his referring to the Irani person's tweet as "ethnonarcissism" is telling as to the author's own blindspots and obliviousness. Seems to me rather convincing that this is a first-world problem.
> "Is anyone really going to miss that $4 billion?"

Yes, the people who own the company will, i.e. shareholders. The majority are not some cartoonish greedy fatcats either; they're ordinary people like you and I who have retirement investments in stocks and mutual funds.

Moreover, if you think employees at FAANGs and big tech companies aren't on-board with this laser focus on share price, remember that a big, big chunk of their compensation is in equity, whether options, stock grants, employee stock purchase programs, etc. During the boom times, plenty of people in the software industry kept a live stock ticker feed on their desktops to keep track of how filthy rich they were getting and it was a frequent topic of casual conversation.
And not just that... if you search for anything that sounds a tiny bit political, all your favorite creators, even the ones you're subscribed to, get hidden from search results, and you're presented with mainstream media results (cnn, msnbc, guardian, huffpost...).

Here is the summary it gives for Walden: Conclusion https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Walden_(1893)_Thoreau/Chapter...

In Walden, Thoreau encourages readers to explore their own inner depths and to strive for truth and simplicity. He argues that material wealth is not as important as the wealth of the mind, and that true happiness comes from within. He also encourages readers to be independent and to take risks, and to not be afraid to explore the unknown. He compares the courage of a soldier to that of a footpad, and suggests that it is nobler to explore one's own inner world than to chase after material possessions. He also suggests that it is better to be content with what one has than to strive for superfluous wealth. He concludes by encouraging readers to strive for truth and to not be afraid to explore the unknown.

I think shows the limits of these kinds of statistical word approaches. They aren't necessary "wrong" but they fail to give any sense of the spirit of optimism in the original. I would have been far more impressed if it just quoted the ending:

The life in us is like the water in the river. It may rise this year higher than man has ever known it, and flood the parched uplands; even this may be the eventful year, which will drown out all our muskrats. It was not always dry land where we dwell. I see far inland the banks which the stream anciently washed, before science began to record its freshets. Every one has heard the story which has gone the rounds of New England, of a strong and beautiful bug which came out of the dry leaf of an old table of apple-tree wood, which had stood in a farmer's kitchen for sixty years, first in Connecticut, and afterward in Massachusetts -- from an egg deposited in the living tree many years earlier still, as appeared by counting the annual layers beyond it; which was heard gnawing out for several weeks, hatched perchance by the heat of an urn. Who does not feel his faith in a resurrection and immortality strengthened by hearing of this? Who knows what beautiful and winged life, whose egg has been buried for ages under many concentric layers of woodenness in the dead dry life of society, deposited at first in the alburnum of the green and living tree, which has been gradually converted into the semblance of its well-seasoned tomb -- heard perchance gnawing out now for years by the astonished family of man, as they sat round the festive board -- may unexpectedly come forth from amidst society's most trivial and handselled furniture, to enjoy its perfect summer life at last!

I do not say that John or Jonathan will realize all this; but such is the character of that morrow which mere lapse of time can never make to dawn. The light which puts out our eyes is darkness to us. Only that day dawns to which we are awake. There is more day to dawn. The sun is but a morning star.
None of the coding questions it answers is closed to usable, and i need to spend more time correcting it than just write it on my own. So it is just not “incredibly smart”.

I had it summarize a recipe for me. It did a good job, but definitely editorialized. The URL I sent included just the recipe for split pea soup, but the summary added that "Split pea soup is a hearty and comforting dish that is easy to make" (which is true, but wasn't in the original) and said that the soup "is sure to be a hit with the whole family" (again, true, but wasn't in the original). So I feel like "summary" isn't the right word exactly. Still amazing. I tested it with a bunch of different blog posts that I was very familiar with and the summary always turned out accurate.
Idk Im not so much into web development but isn't ssr rendering much more expesive? I just move all the processing/calculation to my/server side instead of the clients. This means for a business with many clients I have to pay for the stuff that the clients themselves could have done instead...
The two do not seem so distinct tbh
Wouldn't expect anything less from a company who would ban you for making a sarcastic comment. But will easily allow "jail bait" or abuse porn that can't be verified as consensual or allow the many scam bots that run rampant on the site.

Yup, I have seen a significant uptick of spam on my Google Workspaces accounts.
"open" triggers people to think the other way, but it's actually the same as what we know really well, it's a popular strategy among scammers. 'Look at my expensive sport car' this is a success, thus, building pseudo trust.
It seems only senior level positions are available, and the few other positions are entry. There are also places that hire based on a flat job title (SWE) and just adjust the price dependent on experience.

There is currently a huge shortage of highly skilled technical jobs. So at least IME in the US, companies are falling over themselves to throw large sums of money at experts that largely don't exist.

Outside of that some really couldn't care less. It may be because the often (and sometimes correctly) think that you will require just as much training to get up to speed, but will want far more money.

Hiring recently has be insanity. It's not just post-covid. Companies have no idea what they want, expect to put little effort into hiring, and reject huge numbers of candidates, but claim the market is bare.
And of the 4 above the US, 2 are smaller oil producing nations, one is Switzerland, and the other is Luxemburg.
Based on the information provided, kinda difficult to assertain, as quite a few unknowns.

Per description, sounds like when transfering from A to B, what is happening is 1) downloading from A to computer, then 2) uploading from computer to B.

(vs. logging into Hetzner and initiating a direct transfer from Hetzner to another cloud provider, which may or may not be allowed by the Hetzner account).

Basic recomended step would be to find a 'internet speed test' site and test speeds from computer to A, and from computer to B.

Alternatively, if transfering directly between Hetzner and other provder, try using the internet speed test site from Hetzner account to where ever trying to transfer to. That would rule out the issue being with Hetzner. (assuming Hetzner account doesn't have a 'transfer only during non-peak hours' and/or other transfer limiting policies)

After that, would depend how internet connection is provided & local network & computer hardware/setup.

aka some ideas:

network card is 10mb network card, so will never be able to get speeds beyond the theoretical 10mb hardware limit.

Internet account maximum speed is 10mb.

Some internet accounts impose speed limits based on time of day.

Some accounts only permit uploads during non-peak hours.

Some connections, from an internet service providers view point, are 'shared bandwidth' accounts, so that more people connected, the more the available bandwidth is split between other users.

Just breaking in and taking it is probably way less labor-intensive than applying for it. They could probably do that 100 times before being caught. Finding out some random people in the middle of the night in bumfuck abandoned nowhere is probably harder to catch than a DUI and even that is done like 100 times on average before being caught.

At the end of the day they got away with a misdemeanor and a few hundred in fines. It's basically no sweat and they'll be back at it somewhere else for another 100 goes without getting caught.

I put in a (mostly) transcript of the Randy Pausch lecture on Time Management [1] and the summarizer gave me:

Time management is an important skill to have in order to lead a happier and more productive life. Julie A. Zelenski, a professor at UVA, gave a talk on time management, drawing from two books and her own experiences. She recommends having a filing system, using speaker phones, and standing during phone calls to save time. She also suggests doing the ugliest task first, having a timer on the phone, and leaving thank-you notes on the desk. Zelenski also recommends scheduling meetings, phone calls, and mundane tasks, and treating people with respect and dignity. An interesting point she made was to use a power drill to carve pumpkins instead of a knife!

Julie Zelenski, ha. AI be dreamin'.

I liked the examples and you're always going to have some weird loss of content when you summarize but the AI taking the joke by Randy and then imagining a surname is still amusing.

I'm holding out for 'Wanna tweet? That will be $1'

Incidentally they started sending out emails yesterday offering gold organization checkmarks for $1000/month + $50 per public-facing seat. I'm not sure how many businesses will want this, but I bet a lot of political nonprofits and media outlets will leap at the opportunity to boost their visibility (more boosting available for more $, kinda like promoted tweets).
