These same issues would get fixed in Firefox and Chrome. Safari was the outlier. We couldn't ask our users to use another competitive browser, since they'd been banned (and we most certainly would have put up banners).

The 60 times a day crash (more specifically the app just froze), took 1 to 2 months to fix and it affected every web app. Users would have to force kill the app and restart.

I'd recommend reading through all the comments to get a really good idea on how severe all of the bugs were:

https://open-web-advocacy.org/walled-gardens-report/#safari-...

In 2021, after 10 years of these issues, no progress on important web app features (like push/install prompts), no response from Apple or the Safari/Webkit team, we decided the only method by which Apple would fund Safari properly was to goto governments and regulators to reverse their ban on third party browsers.

Not long after we petitioned regulators Apple started working on push notifications, 12 years after they came out for native.
There is no arbitrary, technical way to tax that does not impose a value judgment.

"People who have more than they need to live are greedy and need to have their money taken and given to those who do not."

From my perspective as a maintainer in a project that's been in GSoC last 5 years, I'd be way more concerned if Stephanie Taylor was laid off (and she hasn't yet) as she's been the absolute face of it on the mailing lists and point of contact into Google.
GitHub pages also deploys straight HTML if available, which is what they did. They did not use the template engine functionality.
I love the idea of modernising old laptops with this approach. I have a ton of (working) old thinkpads and dells I can't bear to part with, would love to upgrade some this way.

I probably would have done the 51nb mod already if I could have just ordered the parts through a regular online store and not the cryptic forum puzzle that was required
Bing's Response to Kevin Roose Conversation: My Experience
I got access to the new Bing after the restrictions were imposed, and I asked Bing about its conversation with Kevin Roose. I repeated the question three times, and I got some fascinating answers.

First it told me it has no regret for whatever it said.
On the second time it told me it would repeat most of the things.
The last time I asked it the same question it replied me that it had learned from its mistake and will not repeat the same thing again.

It depends.

On the surface, not at all. It's a t470 with a massive marketing spiel.

On the other hand, if you spend 10hrs a day on a laptop, you'll keep it for many years, and keyboard layout is important to you, it may be a worthile choice priced per hour of usage. You can also think of it as pre-moded and warrantied thinkPad :-).

I have a couple of t480 and e595 around too but much prefer the t25. I also have a client mandated HP that, while it does have a track point, has an apple-style format and keyboard that drives me up the wall. Non-sensical unique layout, no feel in keys, plus dreaded combined up and down arrows (WHY?? There's so much room on that side! So clearly a choice of pretty over useful/functional. The t25 arrow keys extend down past space key, so they are full size, which neatly demonstrates their priority aligns with mine :)

> Duke" ... started to be used in England from the middle of the 14th century -- long after the Viking Period. Therefore it would be very anachronistic to translate "jarl" with "duke".

Apparently the Anglo-Saxon chronicle refers to Ealdormen as "Duces", plural of Dux, same Latin root as Duc and then Duke. It just means leader. As far as actual meaning then "second highest noble rank to a King" would mean that Jarls and Dukes are equivalent noble titles.

The spanner in the works is after 1066, Earls became equivalent to Counts, below the rank of Dukes. I wonder if this is due to King William still being a Duke in fealty to the King of France? Maybe the Shires were smaller/less-powerful than Duchies like Aquitaine, Normandy etc.?

So it sounds like it went: Ealdormen==Duke then after Cnut, Ealdormen==Jarl==Earl==Duke and then after 1066, (Earl==Count)!=Duke.
Great work to create this FrankenPad!

Besides that, Framework overall looks very promising to me.

I think they have a nice middle ground between DIY and "works out of the box". Yes, you can change parts if you want, but you don't need to fiddle for hours to get something going again. With enough money you have on-site repairs by big manufacturers, but if your IT guy can just swap the motherboard in 15 minutes with a spare one, that's even better I'd say.

I'd love to have a matte screen on their devices, though. That's something I really like on my ThinkPad. Besides that those devices look really good to me and my next device will probably be a Framework laptop.

Does anybody have negative experiences with those machines?
The truly wealthy are making much of their money passively, income tax isn't really something they think about. The government would need to increase the estate and capital gains taxes to actually balance/unburden things.

Regardless, I found the anecdotes entertaining.
"Framework" is a modular laptop from the homonymous company, I guess? Was never made clear in the article or title.

Well, there's comma.ai [0], which is very rare from a company I have seen on what they have as a small startup.

Something that managed to be more safer than Tesla FSD (Fools Self Driving), and not some vapourware like Zoox, Drive.ai, Lyft, and Uber's self driving ambitions which all have amounted to very large costly contraptions that went on the road to no-where.

It should be factored into the up-front price. Do they include the cost of the inventory and snacks in the price?

The host wants to make money from a room, it is in their interest to keep it clean for their guest, because they are the ones making profit from it.

Can't speak to the Christian angle, though probably not an "Inquisition" that term is for when Catholics tried "cleaning house" and I think it may have been a one-off thing in Spain.

Any way, what I wanted to say was that the Vikings (strictly referring to the warrior class here) tended to be fairly abusive and brutal. Ibn Fadlan’s writings document some of the rather barbarous acts they engaged in.

This article is looking for meaning in the tax system where there was never any to find. Whatever your philosophy, taxes are arbitrary. There is some broad consensus that we can't tax people who have no money. People act as though a lot of questions in the tax system have been settled but it takes very little thought to realise it is a stack of conventions with flimsy justifications and questionable incentives. Nobody with the power to change things seems to have a stack of evidence of why any particular configuration is expected to lead to better outcomes. If they do they really should talk about it more.

There are groups who believe that the tax system should encourage certain objectives. Which specific group has power keeps changing (a much deeper trend than mere political parties). The tax system is a jumble of competing ideas. Sometimes, if something is grossly unfair, the rules change. Other times they don't.

I am using a small German email provider and I can't remember the last time I got spam.

What's even crazier is that they are so confident in their spam filter that they simply reject mails classified as spam. But that hasn't been a problem since the few years I have been using them as well.
Sure, it's the author's right to choose what to support and what not. But I'd argue that software openly hostile to docker is probably not the best choice as central piece of your docker-compose based emailling setup, if the alternative is a single golang binary designed for use with docker.
Compare your hypothetical 10^10 range to the range offered by typical LCD monitors, where maximum is in the 300...400 cd/m² range and a minimum brightness less than 30 cd/m² is "outstanding". I.e. a 1:10 range.

No love for NPT (<https://github.com/nptcl/npt>)? Well, I get it, it is very, very new.

One note about ABCL is that it doesn't support TCO, which the Common Lisp spec doesn't mandate. For people who want a Lisp on the JVM and really want tail calls, I would recommend checking out Kawa (<https://www.gnu.org/software/kawa/index.html>).

> That means you need to be able to scale your backlight by a factor of 10^10 to cover the whole human vision range.

Uh, phones don't produce brightness that high. And the low range is "too low" for usefulness anyway. Your math is off by few factors

> And if your CPU runs at 1 Ghz (10^9), then at the dimmest setting then even being on for a single clock cycle would be a flash every 10 seconds - clearly unacceptable, and even then, few backlight controllers could handle a 1 nanosecond pulse!

CPU is not doing PWM, it's separate chip

And you can't realistically have more than few kHz of PWM frequency anyway coz of losses.

It's not really a technical problem in the first place, it's easy technically, just have 2 current sources, when you need low light you just PWM the low current one. And not "just putting resistor in series", that's extremely wasteful, or "single led" that would just not illuminate evenly.
I wanted a 701C so badly back in the day but they were out of reach of my 14 year old self.

I have been debating what to do with my old T42 which I recently discovered has died, thinking I will remove the track pad and shorten the case to be just the keyboard which should make it fit a modern screen quite nicely. Will be a bit of a trick to cut the case down and keep it looking good but I am pretty sure I can manage it and this will take care of getting rid of the battery bay. Thinking of just sticking a beagle bone or two in it but I could put a dozen pi zeros in there without even trying but that would limit battery space.
To be honest, in the last 20 years or so of self-hosting emails, the most common failure points were

• Gmail marked an email as spam, but still delivered it. Easily cleared up, no hard feelings on either side.

• Someone else self-hosts some abysmally maintained Exchange 2003 setup that just about barely works with GMail and Office365, after the MSP irresponsible for it gets enough verbal beatings. Impossible to get to work.
Yeah my kindle have perfectly fine backlight range for night reading.
I've been using https://lunar.fyi/ to go below the min brightness and also beyond the max brightness on an M1, works very well.
You spend 10 hours each day out of office/house? Seems like problem easily solvable by external keyboard (you can keep same one at home and at office), that's what I do. I have T520 (specifically bought originally for keyboard instead newer models) and hooked up wireless full size keyboard, mouse and 32" external display since msot of the time I work from home, if I travel I just take wireless mouse with me.
> Competitions have rules

Yes, but blind application of rules without context isn't the way. Even courts have to take the original intent behind laws into account.

> I know teachers in real life. And they have plenty of things to do besides running a competition

How does that prevent them from knowing what Github is, as the "person in charge of tech education" at that school? Nobody demands they keep up with every trend but someone able to disqualify teams in a web design competition should probably know one of the 5 most visited development websites in the world.
Uh, just no. LED lighting have modes of working that can be bad. You just need to be way more picky and knowledgable with LED lights which is hard for most customers, vs "just buy an incandesent bulb"
> In terms of the very rich I think they should pay a lot more in taxes and they should give away their wealth over time. It has been very fulfilling for me and is my full time job

…yes, Bill, because you’re rich enough to pay someone else (a whole team, even!) to do things like buy a nearly billion dollar stake in a beer company, and you don’t drink.

This won’t be any different than farm land.

> I have invested in these farms to make them more productive and create more jobs. There isn't some grand scheme involved - in fact all these decisions are made by a professional investment team.

If you have an investment team, you can make your “job” to give away money for the rest of your life, because multiple people are working “against” your efforts and bringing in more.

Put differently, Gates gets to play with giving away money, benefit from them optics, and continue to pay a team to grow his wealth while trying to give off that “aw shucks I’m trying to help” vibe.

My main grief is that recruiters in tech has no clue what they are writing in the job listing.

They also tend to reach out to you over linkedin and refuse to give you the actual job description unless you give them your email/phone-number and CV, which is just infuriatingly arrogant.

My hope is that tech job listings stop listing stuff like Must have Experience with XXX and YYY application/framework and instead start listing skills needed to be success full in the role. Tech becomes outdated so incredibly fast and we're allways learning in our jobs that it's kinda futile to list tech instead of skills.

Sure Need to know Python, C#, Assembler, that is a skill, but applications and frameworks are something that you can learn, and besides each company use them slightly different so you'd need internal training anyway.
What is the point of these high resolution displays in 10" body? Actually I don't understand them even in bigger bodies, you still can't see anything without resizing whole display and they eat a lot of battery.
I might just give it a go, been struggling for interesting reading material.
Unfortunately it seems like companies like Microsoft are not content with all those free third party apps offering an open, standardized service where really Microsoft should be the gatekeeper. So now they are ‘enhancing’ the system with extra codes being sent, location being checked etc. And of course this advanced security, which can be enforced by just an enticing click in the policy editor, only works with the Microsoft app, on the devices Microsoft allows. And they get to decide who gets updates and who gets to make do with third rate support.
>it's getting email delivered to your recipients using Google or Microsoft severe email servers.

That's why one ought to do ip warming on the ip and contact different big email provider to get the ip white listed. It is not impossible. Maybe ought to be a service to do all that bureaucratic stuff.
Yes, the article doesn't mention it since it's posted on the Framework forums
While societal control is maintained by pushing financial obligation to the masses, both debts and taxes represent the nuclear upgrade to capitalism that unilaterally enforces the system.

Debt grants its users a taste of what they can not yet afford, subsequently reinforcing the notion that work is equal to progress while also ensuring continuous participation within the larger financial system.

Taxes guarantee the debt-free still participate in commerce. One cannot simply be self-sufficient when property taxes are due annually.

Within this system, every citizen must participate in some form of commerce to meet those obligations. Neither goats nor gold can satisfy this bill; hard currency is required.

This construct does not benefit the majority, only those who hold power and seek to keep it. Neither currency nor commerce represent the underlying problem; they are merely instruments designed to thieve power from man.

Tons and tons of Movies and TV shows are streaming-only releases nowadays.

Also, a bunch of old movies get restored in HD and released on streaming services only. First example that comes to mind is the classic 1993 comedy Look Who's Talking Now.

Adding insult to injury, a bunch of old movies get remastered physical releases... on DVD only. That's right. SD content encoded with a 30 year old codec.

So if I want to watch a movie from my childhood in HD, more often than not my only legal course of action is to subscribe to a streaming service.

Very sad, really.

Indeed, “work” prevents learning. One of the reasons I like freelancing is that I can intentionally set aside 15 hours a week to catch up on areas I’m very interested in. Yes I don’t get paid for this “learning” time but I see this as an investment.
So disincentive saving to a ridiculous degree? If you managed to spend every single cent you earned you'd pay no taxes. Save or invest anything for the future pay a 80% tax on it (you have to compensate all the lost revenue somehow...).

It does sound like a great way to increase consumption and short term GDP growth...

Different people have different consumption patterns. Corporations are incentivized to maximize profit (shareholders want a return), individuals are not...

There also should always be an option to turn off traction control on gravel roads too. You want the gravel to pile up in front of tires it slows you much faster.

And snow is a pain too. Ford Transit vans were terrible for no manual over ride maybe it's all Ford since I doubt Transit has its own unique system. I used to drive a Transit for work the little goofy looking vans. I couldn't make it through a 12 inch high pile of snow the van kept cutting the engine power. I had to back up hit the gas put it in neutral and coast though the tiny little snow pile. You could pull the fuse to disable the traction control but it also shuts off ABS and the airbag. Useless piece of crap van.
