I understand your point, I didn't make that clear.

!= and ≠ are merely visual representations of a concept, so I understand and agree that preference matters here.

the bytes in the file are the Unicode code points for "!" and "=", and that's what the compilers and parsers of the world care about, so that's what I want to see.

I don't want my text editor lying to me about the contents of the file. one could argue that showing ≠ does indeed tell you that "!=" is in the file. it will also appear if the Unicode code point "≠" is in the file. you may see the nice symbol you want to see, but the compiler or interpreter will not understand that and will show you an error which you may or may not immediately recognize as the wrong thing.

I want my text editor to show me what is actually present in the file.
Glorified frontends like DuckDuckGo, Neeva, You.com and Perplexity never had much of a business case.

Greasemonkey was the good one and then something happened with it and it was no longer the best choice. I'm not sure what.

The same repeated with Tampermonkey. It now has telemetry built into it, at one time w/ no privacy policy.

The good one now is Violentmonkey. Has been for some time.

We created JavaScript to run complex code in the web browser.

This worked well, until someone went – hey, we should also use this cool language on the server side. So node.js was born, and it added extra APIs for stuff like filesystem access and web servers that the V8 sandbox didn't allow.

Then someone went – hey, wouldn't it be neat to run all this cool node.js code in the browser? So Nodebox and Webcontainers were born that wrote a compatibility layer and added pollyfills for all the node.js-specific APIs that were missing in V8, and so some of this code was able to run in the browser.

My question is – why couldn't all this code run directly on the browser in the first place without Node.js and Nodebox?
I guess if the parts were fitted and bolted to the bike you could argue that they were "aggresively gifted".

> I have a coworker whose entire family PCs are rack mounted in the garage.

SunRays (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Ray for those too young) were really nice. When they came out I realized why have a noisy workstation under my desk when I can have a massively larger (far noisier) server in the rack and a totally silent SunRay on my desk! That was my setup for a long time.

No longer using the SunRay (sigh) but conceptually not too far from it. I have a macmini on my desk but I do very little compute on it, it's there basically just to drive the monitor. All the machines are on a rack in the garage.
My last job was in an open plan office with a constant noise level of 70db, peaking into 80db several times an hour. After about a year of it I noticed that it was affecting me mentally in a really bad way.

I would get super irritated at people for small insignificant things, be as adversarial/hostile as possible and try to turn every discussion into an argument, I saw slights everywhere, and everyone was stupid.

Once I noticed and figured out it was the noise that made me go crazy I bought noise canceling headphones (Sony WH1000XM3), wore them every day all day either listening to nothing or calming rain (using the Rainy Mood app on iPhone).

After a few weeks I was completely back to my normal happy self. All the perceived slights disappeared, other people were smart and reasonable again, small things were small things easily forgiven and meetings went much smother.

It's absolutely wild how the noise of an open plan office can affect you mentally. I was not the only one going crazy from it, earlier, shortly after we moved to the open plan office one of my colleagues was let go for having gone crazy in much the same way (he was more exposed to upper management).
it comes down to the Inspector for me. I've had zero problems thus far right clicking on elements and then clicking on the relevant CSS exposed. I don't think anyone should actually be reading through CSS docs (will admit I'm a solo dev here so got it easy), and I'm afraid this could make the Inspector more confusing.

furthermore I suspect a very large % of people do not realize you can actually edit and save your CSS directly with Workspaces.
If the point is just to muddy the waters, you don't need a story that's airtight, it just needs to be convincing enough to spark peoples' biases.

If it's a crank, well, it's a crank. When I was in the Air Force, and still had a TS clearance, there was a friend+coworker of mine that was deep into conspiracy theories. Flat Earth, Moon Hoax, 9/11 truther, and a few others I don't remember. Everything we talked about he had loads of details. I knew it was all nonsense of course, because you're talking about flat earth and all that; if I didn't know he was a full blown conspiracy theorist? If I just knew he was a system administrator with a top secret security clearance attached to an intelligence squadron? And he was telling me a story about something the intelligence community did? He'd be very believable.

For what it's worth, I've found it ok (not great, but just ok) to write in Colab notebooks (maybe because I use it at work and I'm familiar with it). Here are a couple of such "blog posts" (which are basically just explorations for myself, but still clean enough to share):

• https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1kEmqjgjudlmPwDReTH9...

• https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1wbktvb8XWISitThnpRA...

• https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1vsEE7XooIF1jHZKWZbE...

Pros: Can just type Markdown and LaTeX math; don't need a separate step to convert to HTML/CSS/JavaScript.

Cons: URL is ugly, code can only be Python (I think?), the UI is janky, can list lots more. But the friction was low enough that it got me to write at all (and move on without endlessly fiddling and never posting), and that's the most important thing for me.

I imagine if I were more comfortable doing everything in Javascript I could use Observable notebooks, as suggested in a sibling comment.

They relocate the noise to where you aren't, so they do address it.

As I mentioned in another comment, my desktop used to be a big Sun server (forgetting model right now) loud as a jet engine. But it was in the rack far from anyone and my desktop was a totally silent SunRay.
Those predictions came from who exactly?

Assuming that their vision was well-intentioned (insofar as having the government subsidize GPS development was well-intentioned by selling them the fact that it could not be extended to support commercial use), those predictions were fundamentally flawed without understanding the cynical side of human nature.
It's really a form of autocomplete. It ranks the next best text based on the ones it's given.

You can train them to be more likely to respond in a certain way. I'll copy some text from here: https://buttondown.email/hillelwayne/archive/programming-ais...

Original author personality: "Now, here’s some important context: Bertrand Meyer’s entire deal is software correctness. He invented Eiffel. He trademarked Design By Contract (tee em). He regularly rants about how SEs don’t know about logic. He didn’t notice the error."

ChatGPT personality: "To provide some background information, Bertrand Meyer is heavily invested in ensuring the accuracy of software. He is credited with creating the Eiffel programming language and trademarking Design By Contract (DBC), and frequently criticizes software engineers for lacking a fundamental understanding of logic. Despite his expertise, he failed to detect an error."

ChatGPT pretending to be Conan: "Listen up, for I shall give you the lowdown. Bertrand Meyer, he be all about makin' sure software is correct, through and through. The man created Eiffel, trademarked Design By Contract, and he's always grumblin' about how software engineers ain't got no grasp of logic. But get this, he missed an error, by Crom!"

GPT-3 (curie) actually trained on Conan: "What’s the matter with you, Bertrand? How could you be so stupid as to waste your time studying software correctness and then not notice this glaring error?"

ChatGPT tends to tone it down to a level of neutralness. Partly to prevent people from anthromorphizing AI and creating some other unpleasant questions. Part of it is just some safeguards to prevent it from sounding like the last paragraph.

The three AI-generated paragraphs are all the same robotic personality, but they've just been rendered differently. That last one sounds angry, but it's not. It's just repeating the dialect from the environment it's used to. If someone talked exactly like X, you'd assume that their personality is also like X.

Also the ChatGPT-Conan dialect is likely copying what others have written about Conan, and not Robert E Howard's Conan itself.

That’s simply FUD. Apple seemed to be able to use GPLv2 without any consequences, and GPLv3 has all the same properties in that regard. The real reason is likely this:

https://meta.ath0.com/2012/02/05/apples-great-gpl-purge/

[…]

Anyway, the message is pretty obvious: Apple won’t ship anything that’s licensed under GPL v3 on OS X. Now, why is that?

There are two big changes in GPL v3. The first is that it explicitly prohibits patent lawsuits against people for actually using the GPL-licensed software you ship. The second is that it carefully prevents TiVoization, locking down hardware so that people can’t actually run the software they want.

So, which of those things are they planning for OS X, eh?

I’m also intrigued to see how far they are prepared to go with this. They already annoyed and inconvenienced a lot of people with the Samba and GCC removal. Having wooed so many developers to the Mac in the last decade, are they really prepared to throw away all that goodwill by shipping obsolete tools and making it a pain in the ass to upgrade them?

ChatGPT can't really introspect though. It has no idea how it works, so it'll just blurt out something that sounds feasible, biased by your prompt.

The slow progression of ChatGPT output is just a property of the output layer. The language engine doesn't work slowly like that, and once a token has been generated it can't backtrack.

Interestingly about 3/4 websites still use PHP. I'm not usually a PHP dev, but my tendency to happily work with any toolset means I've worked professionally on a variety of frameworks in Ruby (Sinatra, Rails, Jekyll), Python (Flask, Django, FastAPI), and others (.NET, Hugo). I can confidently say that some of the most confusing (and magical) code I've read has been rails code. I don't know though, maybe that was the place I worked, or the version of rails, or whatever. I'd totally work at a rails shop again regardless.

This is kind of a weird take. If you define "gaming" as console/PC gaming, then yeah, of course someone only interested in those won't be interested in mobile games. But that says nothing about people who are interested in mobile games; you're free to define that as not "gaming" if you want, but that doesn't really change the fact that there clearly are people out there who play them, even if you decide that what they're doing is different.
I guess it doesn't seem cheap compared to Microsoft 365. Google's $6 plan includes 30GB per user while Microsoft's includes 1TB per user. Google offers a $12 plan and Microsoft a $12.50 plan, but Microsoft's $12.50 plan includes Word/Excel/PowerPoint/etc. for desktop. If your business is going to be licensing those apps, it seems like a good deal compared to Google's subscription.

Maybe people just really prefer Gmail? I know people have negative feelings toward Microsoft Teams.

I guess with Google Workspace, I'm not quite sure how it's that different from what people are used to getting for free (other than with corporate permissions). Google's $6 plan doesn't really include much for storage and their $12 feels like Microsoft's $6 plan.

If Google is in a tough place, I'd argue it's because they anchored their pricing to free with their consumer offerings. You're not wrong that Workspaces provides a lot of value compared to a lot of subscriptions. At the same time, it's something people are accustomed to getting for free and the $6 plan doesn't really offer much on top of their free services. Microsoft is throwing storage at their low-tier plan - offering a clear differentiator from their free service. Microsoft is offering their Office suite for their mid-tier plan - something that is a $440 purchase or $12/mo over the course of 3 years; you're basically getting all the services for free for the price of Microsoft Office. Microsoft is offering lots of device management tools that businesses need in their high-tier plan.

You are totally right that Google's pricing is low for some definition of low. Lots of SaaS that does a lot less costs more. It's just that Microsoft seems to be throwing more value for your dollar at the problem. If you're going to be buying the Office suite for a lot of your employees, wouldn't it make more sense to buy Microsoft 365? Or are Google's services so superior that you'd rather pay twice? That's not a rhetorical question, it's just been a while since I've had a basis of comparison.

Ultimately, you're right. It's kinda silly for businesses to quibble over even $50/mo/user given that they might be paying their employees more than that per hour. But I think that people aren't always rational when it comes to pricing and Microsoft is likely counting on that with their offering.
Yes. They’ve explicitly downranked criticism (they posted about it on Twitter maybe a year ago) and with the removal of downvotes, it’s much harder to quickly figure out how good is the video.
From what I've read Firefox for Android Nightly doesn't restrict which addons are allowed to be installed[1] but does require a really byzantine method to get them installed, by first creating a Mozilla account, creating a collection of addons, then using the collection URL to install them.

It's unfortunate that both being able to install any addon and access about:config on mobile isn't just some checkbox away or at least more accessible without having to install Nightly. A few years ago both were available in the regular version.

One alternative is the F-Droid Fennec fork, which is said to enable both out of the box[2].

I've been using the Return YouTube Dislike extension[0] for a couple of weeks now and it seems to be working surprisingly well (due to the relatively large user base probably, surprised it hasn't been mentioned here). It uses a combination of dislike data of other users of the extension combined with data from older videos which still have dislike count accessible through the API.

And yeah, hiding the dislike count was an extremely weird/annoying move, given that it was a good quality indicator which is now completely gone. It doesn't matter if a video has 1M likes if it has 3M dislikes, in which case it probably sucks. Nor are you misled to believe a video with only 3k likes is bad if it doesn't have more than 22 dislikes.

As with everything you should keep context in mind. For example if you're watching a video on a political topic (or by a controversial character) then the ratio will be more even, even for high quality videos. But the point is: Give the user the information, don't assume they are dumb.

So, you appear to dismiss my concerns completely, demand a feature, and then insist... that hardly anyone will use it? And that because hardly anyone will use it, that means promoters are safe... unless they're not, in which case, they had it coming?

A sponsor pays $10,000 to a content creator.

And then, they get zero views of their embedded ad in the video.

They got literally nothing for their $10,000 investment.

And let's say, for the sake of argument, that YouTube does not pay $10,000 for the same video, or ones like it.

Now, the content creator gets less money than they would have before.

It's almost like content creators have already done this calculus, and concluded that the best way to create content is to promote things.

It's funny to me when someone is like, "Why doesn't YouTube do X," and then they answer their own question, but then they still act like it's weird that YouTube doesn't do that thing.
I think we should probably go back to what I said at the very start: "I've noticed a lot of developers that have this kind of code purity complex where their way of doing things is superior even if the actual code Works - which I think is the number one most important thing about code."

I think encrypting your boot partition and kernel is not very useful. The "better" (IMO), would be to sign the kernel and use secureboot, but otherwise leave it unencrypted. This way the kernel and whatnot can't be tampered with and you don't have to deal with an encrypted boot partition.

I don't think there would be anything in your kernel or bootloader that needs to be confidential!
