Okay, I might be making an appeal to authority here, but I've been a mobile developer for 10 years, a web developer for 2-3 years, and I've done perf with C++/Asm for years of my career, so know that I'm not coming from a place of naivete on either performance or mobile/web development.

> HTML and the DOM are always going to be a less efficient representation of an interface than a component tree

Is the DOM – from which is derived from HTML – not also a component tree? Is it a graph or some other topology I'm not aware of? When you specify a design in Interface Builder, Android xml, or even the DOM-differ-like SwiftUI + Jetpack Compose how is the topology different? Check a DOM object, it's a node with children.

> CSS is always going to be a less efficient manor of appearance specification than direct properties on a component object.

Property inheritance is definitely a thing on both Android and iOS. I'm sure you could confect especially non-performant CSS, but at large it isn't taking up great deal of compute. I've definitely seen weird constraint issues on Interface Builder cause glitches and pauses (and even crashes) on iOS.

> JavaScript is always going to be less efficient than something compiled down to machine language

Javascript can be compiled down to machine language, using the JIT. Similarly Android is compiled down to Dalvik/Java-like byte code and run on a JIT. Is Android not native? Or is it some No True Scotsman kind of thing?

>...he responded with his choice of weapons: cow dung at 10 paces.

That is not correct.

>...Since Lincoln was challenged by Shields he had the privilege of choosing the weapon of the duel. He chose cavalry broadswords "of the largest size." "I didn't want the d—-d fellow to kill me, which I think he would have done if we had selected pistols," he later explained. For his own part, he did not want to kill Shields, but "felt sure [he] could disarm him" with a blade. At six feet, four inches tall, Lincoln planned to use his height to his advantage against Shields, who stood at a mere five feet, nine inches tall.

>The day of the duel, September 22, arrived and the combatants met at Bloody Island, Missouri to face death or victory. As the two men faced each other, with a plank between them that neither was allowed to cross, Lincoln swung his sword high above Shields to cut through a nearby tree branch. This act demonstrated the immensity of Lincoln’s reach and strength and was enough to show Shields that he was at a fatal disadvantage. With the encouragement of bystanders, the two men called a truce.

> and earn on average 22k more than high school diploma would.

Let’s dig into that even a little and see what we get.

For starter they’re talking about on average. Just follow the reference in your article and you get to hear [0]. Look at how wide those range are for the college grads. 25% of college grads don’t earn more than the median (50% of) non-college grad.

If you happen to be one of those 25% college might not look like the slam sunk financial decision. And I’m willing to bet that what percentile you fall into isn’t random, but strongly correlated to major and college.

This is one of the most irrational things I’ve ever read on here so congratulations I guess. The people in the team are not the ones to blame if the teams are too big, you are (if you are in charge). Therefore if you actually want to fix the problem, the person you need to fire before starting over is yourself.

I feel like one thing that is still holding Linux Desktop and any initiative like this back is that we don't have really high quality linux laptops on the market.

We have some people like System76 doing great things, but not in Europe and for all their great work its not the highest quality stuff from China with some serious limitations.

For all the things the European Union funds, from chip manufacture, HPC and many other project from large to medium to small. Why have we not seen a made in Europe Laptop/Desktop/Phone for the bureaucrats and engineers who do things like running states and building weapons and so on.

A fair amount of EU money goes into a lot of these distributed system and internet projects. And I'm not complaining, but we are spending a lot of time trying to make our system secure from everything other then direct attack. The fireware in the new notebook doesn't seem better then in the one before, in fact worse in some way.

We have most of the software, we have most of the things needed to do these things. An Open-Source computer for Europe (and anybody) would be a real counter-point to most of the other models out there.

In such an environment a real AppStore for Open Linux desktop could actually be a really good thing.

Lot of cherry picking in that analysis and also you are comparing index whereas I meant individual tech stocks. Let’s not forget in speculative bubbles everything has downside volatility but lots of real and important assets undergo manias, real estate, railroads, even 1999 nasdaq then crashing 90%, left out of the analysis conveniently.

I’d go as far as the argue that given the grandiose goal of competing with sovereign fiat as modern private currency, the volatility of Bitcoin is likely lower than one could reasonably expect. If we add in the reality that recent mania and crash was overwhelming instigated by perhaps the largest conventional or legacy financial fraud in modern history, FTX, then Bitcoin looks almost sleepy.

Even funnier in the cherry picked analysis was they included Turkish Lira and it was 8.83, it’s now 18.89 per dollar. It along with numerous other fiat currencies have much higher volatility than Bitcoin.

OpenAI Chat Bot That Has an Event Stream
It’s also $150 more than the Quest 2 which has also been out for 2.5 years, I don’t really think it’s going to put any sort of dent into the Quest 2s numbers.

There’s about 7 million PS5s sold in the last quarter and about 1 million Quest 2s sold in Q2 last year. I somehow doubt that every one of, or even 1/7th of those PS5 owners will spend the cost of a console on PSVR so I would argue that it’s still very much Meta’s game to lose.

Edit: clarified the sales numbers are for a single quarter. The point is that even if there’s a lot of potential buyers for the PSVR I don’t think there will be nearly enough conversions.

If my time at Facebook has taught me anything, it's that using an untyped language is pennywise and pound foolish. Whatever time you save in the short term, you're going to pay back 100x in the long term.

FB devs wrote millions of lines of PHP/Hack code when it was untyped, and then it gradually became more and more typed, and they had to keep modifying the entire codebase with various elaborate schemes so that it sort of complies with increasingly strict type checking. A lot of that was inserting compiler directives to say "ignore type errors on the next line." That built up tech debt which eventually had to be dealt with, and doing that is soooo much more difficult than writing typed code in the first place.

A more neutral way of Analyzing public companies
Hello HN Community,

I have been unhappy with the kind of services I was getting from financial website. Primarily because those websites were too much focused on the noise and hype when analyzing companies. I wanted to prioritize the internal factors that impact a company's success, not external opinions or media hype, for better investment decisions. Value Cumulation enables users to make better investment decisions by providing financial intelligence, customizable dashboard, and data visualization for tracking key company metrics. Please give it a visit and let me know what you think. The URL is https://valuecumulation.com/

Opinions are very welcome.

Thanks,

Many things are holding Linux on the Desktop,
but its more so that the competition is doing better and the Desktop market shifted

First, Windows caught up, Linux used to have things that windows didnt in the late 90s and early 2000s, not most linux only app have windows ports, you can run any linux app on windows WSL , and now windows also have powershell

Second, apple made a comeback, now many people who dont want windows use apple and get a unix experience if they wanted one

Third, end users shifted to tablets and mobile phone

The combination of all 3, leave little room for linux, no matter how good linux does , linux on the desktop only make sense for people who develop for linux on the server and want a similar environment on their laptop
