Actually I heard somewhere rents are staring to fall. Not sure if I believed that article.

But it also said there are a lot of new rental units about to hit the market in 2024 YMMV

Another thing, I know some people in one of the "Tier 1 Cities" who's rent has not increased in a few years. But, these people never missed a rent payment and was never late, so it could be due to the landlord liking that.
This is great! Thank you. We’re very similar actually: I also tried getting chat GPT to correct transcripts for errors but when I tried like 3 weeks ago it couldn’t manage. I just use voice memos app and let it run. I just talk and don’t think about the file. So I only have 1 file and my WisprNote app removes nearly all the non speech and passes it to whisper. I think there’s actually a voice memo setting on MacOS that will cut silence automatically but I don’t use it.
Charging management based on electricity price is a solved problem already with multiple solutions. Seems like a no-brainer for an org like USPS to implement.
The show is currently a one-off recording doing all the rendering beforehand... But the beauty of what they've done here is that there's nothing preventing someone from doing this for every visitor. Don't like the way this one is generated? Give it your feedback and that can be used to shape the generated output. It was too laid-back chill for my taste, and right now, all i could do is adjust the playback speed. But dev time and money is the only barrier at this point to me having a conversation with the virtual hosts, telling them i like fast paced shows with more depth in the technical areas, and having them change and personalize on the fly -without changing much of what they have already ingested.
Or just swap the whole truck.
Well, I understand (but disagree with) the reasoning behind the current ageism.

There’s definitely a “personal” element to it, but that’s the age-old disrespect for our seniors that has haunted humanity since Oog ignored his parents, and poked the scorpion with his finger.

The newer part, is the “cargo cult” mentality, that only young people can be creative, and that process can replace experience, thus, freeing these creative young people from the chains of negativity, imposed by their elders.

I don’t think it’s working out so well.
> supposedly smartest elite

Smartest maybe, but elite?

We as a society do not treat researchers as elite.
They are paid shit, they spend half their time filling in meaning less papers to get grant funding, they have no political influece, media does not give them airtime or ask their opinion on critical issues. They have a modicum of respect and thats about all.

Maybe we should treat them better.
Composting is a process specifically intended to break down organics. A closed tavern in the desert isn't likely to have the same conditions, and I'd imagine the remnants of the fish are largely bones and scales of the sort you wouldn't put in home compost.

As well, I don't expect recent frameworks like Svelte and Solid to stick around as well in large prominence, simply due to how they handle two way mutable state which is precisely the reason why React eschews that philosophy and takes the functional approach of immutable trees of nodes being updated somewhat efficiently. The OCaml inspiration is real.
When I read Laurie’s initial post,I took it in the context of Alex’s post. And Laurie’s point was that developers will be betting off using a framework. 10 years ago, it was angular js, ember etc, Now it is Angular2+, React, Vue etc. in future, it maybe something new, but it will be a framework.

Making Laurie’s post all about React, is taking it out of context, on the verge of gaslighting that author is accusing others of

I think there’s a more likely explanation that the longer an expansion cycle goes, the more time people spend wondering when it will stop/reverse. The more people who wonder about it, the more market there is for articles talking about the inevitability.
Yeah. Google Cloud was the only one I knew off the top of my head. I'm sure other clouds (not just MSFT) are growing too. Maybe the second derivative is going down, but it's absolutely not even close to a drop.

Public cloud will grow a lot more. I'd expect a slowdown when they're all ~10x what they are now.
Pretending that two wrongs make a right or that everything is equally bad won't help, though. Democracies are often found wanting when measured against their standards. That's still better than having absolutely none whatsoever.
A lot of people have a terrible conception of what proper white is.

Often what many think of as white is white mixed with blue. This is super evident after properly calibrating the white point of a (good) TV. Most casual viewers will say that the whites are now yellow/orange but in reality they are just used to always looking at white with a lot of blue mixed in.

I've had similar experience with a interior designer friend of mine who told me my new white walls were not white but cream. I have a spectrophotometer that pretty clearly said that my walls were closer to white then his walls that he insisted were proper white (they were white mixed with blue)
This. If anyone really knew, they’d be getting rich investing rather than writing articles.
That is also true - for a different meaning of "evolution in" which I didn't consider relevant for OP.

> We were told writing apps with an HTML-first, SSR-first, progressively enhanced mindset, using our preferred language/tech stack of choice, was outdated and bad for users. That was a lie.

I didn't like using the statically-served web and I especially didn't enjoy developing with the HTML-via-AJAX approach back in the day.

Like it or not there's a lot of additional interactivity which JS affords us that is nowadays taken for granted by users - advanced validation in real time being just one of them.

That being said:

100% this. I've met people who were high on this sort of koolaid and there was really no reasoning with them.

Interestingly, it's mostly the React community. They seem to bravely solve problems unknown in other frameworks - CSS especially was largely solved everywhere else.

I'm happy that next-generation frameworks like Svelte or Solid picked up on mistakes made in the previous decade and largely don't repeat them. You have progressive enchantment and predictable abstractions.

But chiefly they have something I never thought I would see again on the front-end: a meaningful, readable stack trace.
Map is unfriendly in several ways because of the nodes being allocated with new by default. You can significantly improve its behavior by constructing the map with an arena allocator. Then you will enjoy better cache locality and cheaper mutations.

> I need to attract you, continuously, and then, in the same fashion, _hurt you_.

This is precisely the case with cultish groups like neo-Nazis.

They draw vulnerable/disaffected people in, they have attractive elements (sense of community, us-versus-the-world, positive feedback on traits others see as negative) that make it hard to leave, and they hurt you (job loss, friends and family disown you, reinforcement of those negative traits).

That's assuming sites/users in China use statcounter, completely misleading data.

According Wikipedia and at least 2 different sources they quote, Google peaked in China at 29-35% and even that seems way too optimistic, if you ask anyone who used search in China back then or have been there. By my experience from years ago was Google search in Chinese language useless.

That's a good question. It's not exactly stress what I'm feeling. More of an embarrassment, since I usually take pride in my work.

It's hard to advocate for good engineering practices in my team when I don't get org support. We have a junior joined our team, and I think it's best for them to start their career elsewhere. I don't bad-mouth the company and I feel dishonest when I need to play along and justify the way our organization works.

Maybe it will convert to stress with time, and I hope I will be able to recognize it early to leave immediately.

Why would upper UHF be better?
You can argue that being hardworking is a talent, and as such luck. Not everyone has the force of will to be hardworking some people are naturally lazy and some can put hard work without it feeling like hardwork and others can feel the hard work, but have the will to overcome it, etc.

I say that success is 100% luck and of that 100% of luck, some of it can be composed of hardwork, as the ability to perform hard work is in itself, a part of luck.

Also, I haven't seen a new piece of classical metal jungle gym installed in a while. New climbing structures here are either geodesic rope contraptions or elaborate monkey bars. I think it's following the trend of aggressive risk reduction in playgrounds as the ropes probably absorb falls better.

I never said otherwise. I said a forum full of hatespeech/nazis is not _automatically_ a "toxic" place. It may be "violent", or "dangerous", and other things. If you can outright see what they are up to, and they are open about it, it is not toxic. Membership may indeed become toxic for particular individuals later on. I didn't say it won't.
Maybe, maybe not. This was a sudden impulse to one point on the asteroid but reentry would be a gradually increasing force across the whole leading edge.
The Economist publishes a piece saying a recession either is or isn’t happening every few weeks.

If you actually read those articles you'll tend to find they don't actually say "a recession is (or isn't) happening". They actually say "These specific factors indicate a likelihood of a recession (or not) in this particular area based on the following assumptions".
At the risk of being a tad snarky...

What does OP think is underpinning the browser's implementation of the DOM? Or Audio, for that matter?

Those low level apis exist, and they could be exposed, but there's a whole lot of reasons they aren't. To list a few...

1. The browser is handling all of the platform differences for you. The issue with low level control is... you have to understand the low level details, and those tend to be architecture & platform specific. Blink in chrome is just neatly hiding the fact that under the hood it's got considerable differences for each platform. It's having to deal with OpenGL, Vulkan, DirectX, etc. And they are ALL different. So if I use the intermediate DOM layer Chromium provides, I get immediate support for 6 platforms (Windows, Linux, Mac, ChromeOS, Fuchsia, Android) plus unofficial support on BSD (at least OpenBSD and FreeBSD). Using the low level api... I don't have time to write a website, I'm too busy trying to read graphics api docs.

2. There is huge value in having a selection of premade utilities to work with - The honest answer is that most websites are just forms. Microsoft knew that most apps are forms way before the web (WinForms). So if you really just need to have the user enter some data, and then see a new page a framework that provides you with those tools is a huge win. This is why things like QT, WinForms, and the DOM exist - they give you an easy way to quickly make forms. Of the three - the DOM is by far my preferred. It's actually an insanely capable engine for forms.

3. The last (and arguably most important) point is that the browser is enabling you to run untrusted 3rd party software. It's not giving that software low level access because it's sandboxing your system from it to give you at least a modicum of trust that you can open a webpage and not have your whole machine compromised. Low level access is powerful, flexible, and complex. I don't want a site to be able to access my microphone or files or usb devices without control over it... because I click random links on sites like HN all day long.

> And that goes for frontend development in general…a lot of “backend” developers hate frontend development, but when I scratch the surface, I find out they don’t necessarily hate frontend development per se, they hate all the ridiculous complexity.

I'm one of these "backend" developers, and let me tell you the reason why: it's ridiculous that you can't grab a project that hasn't been touched for two years and not waste at least half a day getting it to build again. In contrast, environments like PHP or hell even Python and Java (that are complexity nightmares on their own) have a vastly different experience. Or your plain old jQuery project from 2010-ish - it will still run just as it did back then.

Backwards compatibility, "think and design properly before you code", "don't reinvent the wheel" are all things that the JS community at large is lacking for decades, and keeping up with the insane amount of churn is the most ridiculous expectation that it has.

Side note: The fad of nosql databases is similarly bad - they've been re-learning all the lessons of 40-ish years of people running databases at scale from scratch. Yes, their projects initially seemed easier to use and more resource-efficient to run - but inevitably grew to the same level of complexity as conventional databases do, because people were expecting the same guarantees (i.e. ACID). In the end, a ton of development work was lost unnecessarily.

Show HN: Compare 259 paid proxy plans across 19 data points
This project aims to aggregate data about available paid proxy plans to assist with comparing pricing and features. Nearly all of the displayed data is obtained automatically from the proxy providers (it scrapes the scrapers' websites/APIs every few hours).

Eventually I would like to automate testing the proxies of each provider for things like IP reputation, blocks, speed, and uptime to see if their services actually match their claims.

I'm planning on adding nearly 20 more proxy providers, please comment if there is a particular provider you'd like to see included.

Summarizing would make sense however.
If you only implement operator[]() it should do the same thing as only implementing Index in Rust, thanks to implicit cast conversion. Whether it causes "the correct things to fail and everything else to work" is up to interpretation, as this will give you const references to the array values, which is much less idiomatic in C++ than in rust.

Not sure how it can be easier to use than already supereasy web app, notifications work same via browser and you don't need to install anything, these are really no arguments for desktop app.

If you would say desktop app can do voice/video calls which you actually use (I don't, not gonna open laptop with closed lid and external display for that) I can understand using the desktop app, but for someone who doesn't need voice/video calls on computer and is fine with better camera in phone there is no benefit in installing additional dedicated app.
