Benchmarking Preact Signals versus the React Alternatives
By "just as well" do you mean "still happen some" or "still happen at least as much"? Because the former seems clearly true while there are many counterexamples to the latter (ex: anything with zero marginal cost).
Not OP but am half Mexican with many Latin family members.

A big trend right now in Latin America is 'quiero toxico/a'(I want a toxic(person)) , they paste it all over their vehicles, clothing and whatnot.

You will see women wearing shirts that say 'soy toxica'(I'm toxic).

They literally want someone who hits them, gets jealous, all the bad stereotypes.

Having lived that myself, I firmly believe it's because they have never actually been with someone like that.

They think they want it till their car ends up destroyed, clothes on fire, or one/both in jail.

I just cannot fathom willing that stuff into your life, but some people are what's known as 'addicted to chaos'.
> does religion play a major rile in politics in the rest of the western world?

Hasn’t the growth of Islam in Europe been a large and growing political issue for the past decade?

France in particular has had lot of debates about religious clothing at schools, what kind of criticism of religious ideas is and isn’t acceptable, etc.

From my POV, it looks like religion is a bigger deal in European than American politics. In America, politics are the religion for many and marrying across political lines now carries more opposition than across religious ones, for the majority of people. Things have changed quite a bit since the 80s.

I wonder how hackable this Nokia device is.

I have an old Nokia smartphone. I barely use it as a phone; really it's just for 2FA, when the provider insists on SMS for 2FA.

An inexpensive Android device which is hackable and exposes GPIO pins would make an interesting robotics platform. If this device supports replaceable CPU, then perhaps it also exposes GPIO.

I've relearnt keyboard layouts once and know I can do it, but I also remember how long it took to get fast on the new one and how I don't want to do that again.

Not to mention all the other issues with getting your new fancy layout to work in every operating system and app and then being really thrown when you try to type on any other "normal" person's keyboard for a minute.

It's already hard enough spending 15 minutes in every new computer game to change the default WASD keybinds to the superior ESDF.

Popular education in Sweden: much more than you wanted to know (2022)
I feel the same and agree with you.

I still have a physical newspaper subscription that I read. I like some ads. And some of those are very original and witty.

I also get a literary magazine that comes twice a month. There are lots of ads of books and other indie magazines which I make lists from, and regularly buy.

I am now in the process of subbing to local/indie type science/math/cs magazines to support and contribute articles to.

So, old kinds of ads do work.

I have a theory. I think there are three reasons.

1. There is the question of class. Ads in a literary magazine and a somewhat good quality newspaper know their audiences, and so do their advertisers, and the people they have for designing them. The internet ads are for every tom, harry, and dick. And hence they are less appealing to people of a certain level of class.

2. There is question of scale, of course. The designers of old kinds of ads design with a personality, an art. (Seen Mad Men?) While the ads in internet wants to scale. And I believe, data-driven decision making is the worst in terms of design/art. There should be art to these things.

3. Low barrier to entry is also a reason. To put an ad in a magazine like Byte or a national/provincial level newspaper, you need more money. And people who have more money are more likely to hire good designers/artists. And the internet ads have much smaller atomicity/granularity in terms of money. So anyone can put an ad. And these people will have less money, and will hire
people who are lesser artists/designers.

Their are other minor factors like ads not covering your content or you not having to click to read your content.
Trust me, it's worth it. Most people have no idea the kind of unethical shit that HIPAA and then the ACA regulated out of existence—stuff that would make you say "How in the name of all that is holy was that legal until 1996???"

One of the necessary casualties of that is restrictions on who is able to offer what and when. It's a good trade.

Should @bulb_status be @bulb_on in the first line of the example in Templates?

That is actually irrelevant. I couldn't try out flan-t5-xl but the model flan-t5-model is like an inferior GPT but it is opensource. I don't necessarily think that the size of the model is that significant. What makes ChatGPT so impressive is that you don't have to mess around with the settings vs Flan T5.

More effort has to be put into obtaining good training data than just throwing compute at the problem.
I mean its open source, why wish for a project with actual utility to die when its completely forkable? Its not like the code itself is harmful, just the author according to what you've said.
With all the recent talk around Preact Signals I decided to clean up and release some benchmarks I did a while ago, and talk about the conceptual differences between the various state management systems available.

Originally this post was much longer, but I've split it into two, and I'll release the second part once it's finished soon (hopefully in a couple of days).

This was sparked by Preact Signals monkey patching the renderer in their React package. I thought that such a high maintenance cost decision surely conferred huge performance benefits, when in fact it does not! Though I don't show it in this specific benchmark (it's in the next post), it's more performant to subscribe to the signal and update a regular useState hook in the component, no monkey patching required.

I think it's helpful to see that these text updates are taking on the order of <20 microseconds on 10 year old hardware, so upending your entire state management solution in pursuit of better performance might not be a sound compromise.
It might if Apple or Microsoft provided good frameworks for building native apps.

I read a comment[0] by a developer who used SwiftUI for his app

> What took me 15 minutes on the web, it could take a day on SwiftUI.

It's just not possible for indie devs (or startups) to put that sort of time into native apps. Not to mention SwiftUI is still extremely broken despite being available for 3 years. Quoting from that article

> Every major iOS / macOS upgrade, I have to refactor my code because something crashes the new version. Imagine this happened on the browser.

At this point, unless Apple and MS provide a good component based abstraction for building native UIs (SwiftUI is a step in that direction) developers will keep going to Electron and other alternatives which let them write React (or svelte or even Flutter in the non-web land -- anything that lets them get actual work done)

>> I had no idea mooring the R100 was that complicated!

Arguably the ground handling infrastructure and manpower requirements to land them safely is one of the main impediments to them making a comeback.

It's a shame, as living within spitting distance of the Cardington sheds and seen the small Airlander hybrid, the actual full size R10* must have been something else. There's some rather nice photos here that gives a glimpse of what that was like for the R100 https://rarehistoricalphotos.com/r-100-airship-pictures/
The effect is about how individually-tutored students consistently out-perform classroom students. How does a study guide, such as your program, help with that?
What is the business case for that?
If MIT students are really so smart then they can probably learn what to learn on their own. If they can't, then they aren't so smart.
JavaScript doesn't have value types or operator overloading (also applies to Java) - this makes writing vector math pretty shitty imo - and you're working with vectors all over the place in games.

I've been using GNOME on Wayland for over a year and have literally none of these issues other than X fractional scaling not being great. But even then fractional scaling is good enough that I generally don't notice it. (But all of my daily apps are Wayland native)

> swayidle is an idle daemon, where the maintainer doesn't think that it matters whether its connected to power or not

Sounds like a problem with the tool, not Wayland.

> color warmth setting

This is a general issue on Wayland but GNOME has this built in. I'm surprised that KDE doesn't.

> In chrome and electron it's supposedly supported but you have to toggle it yourself?

I guess Chromium's Wayland support isn't considered production ready? I don't use Chromium often but running on XWayland hasn't bothered me much. I guess this would be more annoying if it was your primary browser.
This looks like a kind of cargo cult to me.

Any godot programmers here. How is godot's support of games in the browser?

4 years ago I was deciding on a game engine to use. I considered it to unreal, Unity, and godot. I want to be able to build games that can be played on the web. I have many fond memories of the Flash game days. Distributing games over the web allows me to share games with people without the friction of installers, or App Store gate keepers, which I think is super cool. At the time, only Unity supported web. I decided to go full in on Unity.
I found the books by David B. Wagner and Roman Maeder (who designed the language,btw) to be incredibly helpful.

Ex-ASML employee accused of data theft is being probed for ties to China
I have a Tulikivi Soap Stone heat retaining ovens [0] in my home.

It stores about 60kWh and releases it gradually over 24+h. The problem is that it's power is about 3kW of released heat. Which is not enough for my home. I still need to use heat pumps as my main heat source (not complaining as they are more efficient anyway).

So it's a nice fireplace that retains heat and the cats really love it. But there is a tradeoff between power and efficiency so if you are looking to put one in, do the math and figure out whether it is the right solution for you.

They also claim that over 90% of the burning energy goes to heating the home and only 10% is lost. Tho as mine uses inside air I suspect that as cold air is drawn in, it might be less.

I feel like a new market surely is going to appear in the web games space. The low level pieces (webgl, game pad support) are good enough to make awesome games, but the main engines don’t jell with the web ecosystem. I think it is going to be a game like Celeste - high quality, developed with a mid level rendering library, game pad exclusive — that paves the way for a new batch of indie titles that better leverage the web to its potential.

I see an awesome opportunity for a minamalist immediate mode rendering library in the vein of Kha/XNA/Mono Game to deliver blistering 2D performance on WebGL, that an ecosystem can form around and build upon. Libraries like Phaser and Pixi attempt to give Flash like functionality but don’t offer the Flash like API stability, so as an ecosystem foundation they kinda suck. A library that merely implements a subset of the 2D canvas API, but performant and easily portable, would serve as the best foundation IMO.
Favoriting this for any possible WP project in the future, thanks. Would want to take a closer look to see how it compares to stuff like Roots’ Sage project.

> And no, it isn't segregationist not to want to spend time with people who are bigoted toward you.

26% of black people who responded to one poll said they disagreed with "It's okay to be white" (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It's_okay_to_be_white).

His reaction to this, was to say that all white people should avoid all black people. This one poll is not evidence that all black people are bigoted toward all white people. It's not even evidence that all 26% of the people who disagreed with a inane 4chan prank endorsed and spread by white supremacists are bigoted toward all white people.

The more I read this, the less I get his point on the religious influence.

> It is unclear why the Catholic Church’s influence waned so quickly and why France was the first country to secularize.

But then, if he doesn’t know enough about what’s happening in France during that period, how can he pin down the demographic decline as caused by the Catholic Church’s decline ? What if it was a completely different reason that he couldn’t find in his very limited set of documents ?

> The decline of Catholicism, and fertility, in eighteenth-century France turned it from a demographic powerhouse – the China of Europe – to merely a first-rank European power among several

Why wouldn’t it the other way round, with the core causes of the French decline also triggering less religiousness ?

This article has a lot of data, but the base logical argument feels off, like starting from a conclusion and sticking correlated statistics to it without ever coming up with definitive causality.
The problem is that finding a postdoc that is also a good _teacher_ is a monumental task of its own.

Compared to an online platform that's being used by a ton of people, has lots of reviews and recommendations and that is, presumably, actively optimized through a feedback loop, it's an easy choice between the two. Also, a platform removes the friction of cancelling the engagement if the need to do so arises for whatever reason.

I mean, if someone I know points at a postdoc and says "this guy is excellent", then their recommendation will prevail. But chances of that happening are next to zero.

Nick Cannon had some awful remarks: When you have a person that has the lack of pigment, the lack of melanin, they know that they will be annihilated,” Cannon explained on his “Cannon’s Class” podcast. “So the people that don’t have [melanin] are—I’mma say this carefully—are a little less...They’re acting out of fear. They’re acting out of low self-esteem. They’re acting out of a deficiency. So, therefore, the only way they can act is evil.”

He got fired, but is now rehired. The firing was basically because his comments about Jewish people. Most outlets ignored what he said about people with white skin.

Just look at Apple’s sales and their cancellation of the mini. I’d love it to be the opposite so I didn’t have to hold on to my iphone 12 mini, but it’s just how things are. Most people don’t like smaller phones and would be a waste of resources to make high end ones.

<iframe>? Other than that, nothing is stopping you from writing css and scripts and html in one file.
Totally agree with your comment. Just came in to leave for others: I believe "TTY" stands for "Teletype"(writer).
Learned fun facts I didn't know when I hit google to double check: the original teletypes are descendants of a morse-code printing device called the "teleprinter" (from the 1830s!") One of the early popular devices for encoding and printing typographic characters was patented by Emile Baudot(for whom "Baud rate" is named) in 1879! This means that the commercial mechanical typewriter barely predates the teletype.

Am I being overly pragmatic if not selfish for thinking this is absolutely fine?

There are recent attackers who want to steal ssh keys of developers to do things like inject malicious code into any git repos that developer owns.

That malicious code in turn, when pulled and installed by another developer does the same - so it's a worm that spreads via npm, makefiles, requirements.txt, etc.

No reason it couldn't also spread by pickle files.

Maybe I’m missing the hyperbole, but almost all iPhones and Google Pixels fit into that gap. The base iPhone 14 is $799, the iPhone SE is $429, and there are older model iPhones in between. Even the base iPhone 14 Pro is $999, technically in the range. A Pixel 7 is $599, a Pixel 7 Pro is $899, and a Pixel 6a is $449.

There’s perhaps a gap in the $150-$400 range, but used phones can definitely be found there, and I would bet that there are Android manufacturers that sell new phones there.

(All prices are USA and before tax, so other markets will be a bit more expensive.)
