The downside of differential programming is the absolutely massive amounts of training data and time required. Several orders of magnitude over boosted decision trees or even SVMs. If your function’s domain is fairly well understood, save yourself a few weeks and a few thousand dollars.
Additionally, my home Pi4 sits in a metal case that acts as a heat sink so I don't have to use a fan at all. That translates to:

- additional energy savings

- more or less eliminated need to clean out dust or eventually replace a fan

- no fan noise, a massive boon if you live in a small apartment and don't have a closet or basement you can toss the server into for noise insulation

I suppose if I did serious number crunching on my home server, I'd need something beefier... but I've been running a VPN, a Minecraft server, a streaming media server, and a DNS server on my Pi4 for more than 3 years now. Only during media scans do I feel any slowness.

Usually at 5AM, but I never start those "usual" boxes before 7AM nor gathering to work before 7AM. This two hours are for the most important things: either sleep if I feel like I need some or making my research which I consider the most important thing I do in my life.

Actually a summer makes early waking up easier because of the bright sun lighting into my bedroom, but a winter makes easier early going to bed because of lack of light and because I have moved from a city which are famous by actively throwing out orange Sodium lamps in the favour of blue LEDs nowadays.

Ah, now I remember how I got to one of these pages. I wanted to have a look at the local newspaper of Tuttle, Oklahoma because of a funny (and sad for open source devs) event that happened there in 2006: https://www.theregister.com/2006/03/24/tuttle_centos/. It was blocked for GDPR reasons (at the time at least)

That oscillation probably wouldn't happen if it were possible to be more humble about the scope of the solution and connection to commercial incentives. It's gotten to the point where a rite of passage for becoming a senior developer is waking up to the commercialization and misdirection.

You can see the cracks in Next.js. Vercel, Netlify et. al, are interested in capitalizing on the murkiness (the middle, as you put it) in this space. They promise static performance but then push you into server(less) compute so they can bill for it. This has a real toll on the average developer. In order for a feature to be a progressive enhancement, it must be optional. This is orthogonal to what is required for a PaaS to build a moat.

All many people need is a pure, incrementally deployed SSG with a robust CMS. That could exist as a separate commodity, and at some points in the history of this JAMStack/Headless/Decoupled saga it has come close (excluding very expensive solutions). It's most likely that we need web standards for this, even if it means ultimately being driven by commercial interests.
Another alternative JSON parser is the YAML parser. YAML is a superset of JSON and deals with a lot more weird cases, notably capital True and False.
The Netherlands is the second largest food exporter in the world. And we are a small nation.

back in the olden days a web browser was largely considered just a program to read documents stored on other systems that can be linked to each other sent over a simple stateless protocol. Then we started to be able to collect user input, then a hack was invented to maintain state between requst/response pairs (cookies), then a scripting language etc

There are many use cases out there where not treating a browser as a container to run an actual application is the right way to go. On the other hand, there's many use cases where you want the browser to be, basically, a desktop app container.

The big bold letters at the top of the article declaring htmlx is the future is a bit much. It has its place and maybe people are re-discovering it but it's certainly not the future of web development IMO. The article gives me kind of web dev career whiplash.
Fun video. I enjoy this angle of hacker news - where it really is somebody going unnecessarily deep into some tech. Not for practical use, but just because it's there.
I don’t think “forces” is the right way to think about it. By default a SPA breaks navigation history etc (it’s right in the name). It’s not onerous to reimplement it correctly but reimplement you must.
> They can tell whatever they want, but it would need to be a US court (in that case) who would do the litigation. Which they won't.

That's a pretty incomplete view of how jurisdiction works. You do probably need a US court ruling to enforce a claim against a US entity – but if that entity has any EU subsidiaries or assets, you can bet that European courts will come after those.

It's /mildly/ crafting the narrative in the very title... "second worker," which is implying "this is a pattern." Even the first word of the title is "Google."

As for the minimizing, remember that on HN we aim to take the best possible interpretation of our fellow members' comments.

Talk about the positives of YOUR approach, don't tear down a different approach that half the industry is using. You're not going to say anything new or interesting to the person you are trying to convince this way. Experienced engineers already know the trade-offs between an SPA and a server rendered experience.
Might makes right, after all.
Good suggestion mmaia - I'm opening a new issue to keep track of the different output schemas that are being suggested. One thing that originally worried me a bit with yaml was its relative reliance on space-based formatting to drive meaning. GPT generally tokenizes newlines/spaces but a lot of preprepared datasets strip these out, so I preferred the explicitness of a json that's idempotent to spaces. Have you tried using this approach for non-tabular or nested data like lists or dictionaries?
Anybody who is watching this industry knew this. Ariane 6 is really just a slight upgrade over Ariane 5. The Ariane 5 ME is mostly what the parts that are now in Ariane 6 came from, otherwise Ariane 6 would have taken much longer.

This was approved in 2014, and the rocket wont be really operational until 2024. So 10 years for a really simply upgrade. Some of the parts now on the Ariane 6 have been in development for 20+ years.

Even if right now, Europe decided to do a huge new rocket projects, it would be 10 years minimum. But this is not likely going to happen. Many didn't even want to spend the money for Ariane 6. An agreement on a real large reusable rocket is politically not feasible anytime soon, an no country, not even France is gone do it alone.

Of course a real reusable rocket is gone cost more the develop then the Ariane 6, a slight upgrade over Ariane 5. Ariane 6 cost 5 billion and that ignores a lot different costs for infrastructure and development of sub-components over the last decades.

So a decade is actually an incredibly optimistic prediction, 2 decades is more likely and that is far from certain.

And even if they do so, they will never have a large share of the market. They will battle a whole host of other companies, RocketLab, ULA, Relativity for things that SpaceX will be excluded from (Amazon and so on).
Does anyone have an example Hacker News client written in HTMX?
In CA, “half a year” is 5 months. Also, there is a long list of factors the FTB uses to go after you to prove you still have significant contacts with CA to extract tax from you. A clean, permanent break is best. Worked well with tax attorney planning. Was great getting a free house in tax savings by leaving that state. Plus I can retire earlier. Nice state but no longer worth it unless you make little or no money.
> way less than the amortized cost of an actual car, but a $5k used vehicle pays for itself after 20 such trips.

First of all, the days of getting a decent car for $5k in the US ended with the pandemic and the supply chain insanity. But even if you could do that, you also need to factor in:

* Gas

* Insurance

* Registration and taxes

* Maintenance

If you don't use a car as part of your commute or regular errands, it's likely cheaper to rent.

Honestly, the best compromise solution is usually to share a single car for a household. Not helpful if you're single, but if you have a partner, then you can usually get by fairly well with just one car and now your individual costs are cut in half.

Another way to balance the trade-offs is to own a car that's smaller and more cost efficient but doesn't cover all your needs. Then rent on the infrequent times when you're traveling, camping, bringing a bunch of kids to a party, hauling lumber, etc. and you need the extra storage or passenger space.
> HTMX allows you to design pages that fetch fragments of HTML from your server to update the user's page as needed without the annoying full-page load refresh.

I've been on the sidelines for the better part of a decade for frontend stuff, but I was full-stack at a tiny startup in 2012ish that used Rails with partial fragments templates for this. It needed some more custom JS than having a "replacement target" annotation everywhere, but it was pretty straightforward, and provided shared rendering for the initial page load and these updates.

So, question to those who have been active in the frontend world since then: that obviously failed to win the market compared to JS-first/client-first approaches (Backbone was the alternative we were playing with back then). Has something shifted now that this is a significantly more appealing mode?

IIRC, one of the big downsides of that "partial" approach in comparison with SPA-approaches was that we had to still write those JSON-or-XML-returning versions of the endpoints as mobile clients became more prevalent. That seems like it would still be an issue here too.
The title makes it seem like LoZ changed something outside of itself, when the article is actually just talking about how LoZ has changed over time.
A. Few people outside of tech care; this won't bring votes.

B. Yes but the private contractors like the current status quo. More profit for them.

C. It's not always possible. Bureaucracy is a very big factor in such cases and it can't be fixed.

D. Of course not. The thing is that there are a lot of people that "profit" from this situation. And unfortunately these are more or less the same people that can decide in favour of making the open source everything move. And because of A there won't be much pressure for changes.

> when you don't have factual evidence.

You don't understand evidence. When our school boards are getting rid of advanced classes they're referencing race based reasoning like that example. Also, these specific recommendations are adopted in many schools - Stride Equitable Math - it's one of the more common.

> "cause (someone) to adopt radical positions on political or social issues".

That's circular reasoning though. What about the positions I would encourage someone to adopt is "radical"?

So far you're just using it as an insult.

> What do you think reactionary mean? You have no further point other than reaction to what some activists do. You don't work for schools to have actual policy, you just flail your arms.

That's probably the dumbest standard because by nobody has a plan when they first discover a problem. As you're using it, it's just an insult, and an empty one at that.

> "You don't work for schools to have actual policy"

Also, um, yeah. We do. A policy which bans using racial identifiers in all policy and policy discussions. Mandates that the same curriculum be available to any student gated only by skill.

> Vetting media outlet by general editorial quality is a good idea to not read nonsense.

I said I don't check for ideology. The quality is just fine - a mom had a complaint and they published her opinion piece as an editorial.

You pointed to a headline you didn't understand about lesbians but that's on you, not the paper. The headline was fine and references real events.

> Good job not using HN for ideological battles

Ironically, here you are flailing with insults and wildly reacting to my comments about a radical new movement to shove racism into schools.

Only one of us is having a battle.

You got freaked out because you saw something you didn't understand, refused to read deeply and engage, and now you've accused me of all this crypto-racism because I'm trying to remove racist policies from schools. Slow down. Not everyone uses your dog whistles, and not everyone on the other side is a bad guy.

Do you actually have any problem with my stance on this, that "what should be done to support minorities is the same thing that should be done to support the majority - full and proper academic standards."

> So any climate plan that relies on large-scale CO2 removal from atmospheric air is probably a complete SCAM.

The "scam" language is interesting to me.

I often run into people who seem to think that advocates of carbon capture technology are somehow being intellectually dishonest and are not serious about climate change.

In fact I think there are a lot of people who are interested in carbon capture tech who just keep an open mind about it. Not all scientific advances are obvious early on.

I think we should avoid assuming that people who are promoting carbon capture research are speaking in bad faith. There are lots of people who genuinely believe the tech may mature to a point it is useful to the fight against climate change.

Just because the fossil fuel industry promotes it doesnt mean that everyone who promotes it is a shill for the fossil fuel industry.

> it's impossible to implement "optimistic UI," where the user creates a TODO item on the client side and posts the data back to the server in the background.

Pretty common patterns for this- just use a sprinkle of client side JS (one of: hx-on, alpine, jquery, hyperscript, vanilla js, etc), then trigger an event for htmx to do its thing after awhile, or use the debounce feature if it's only a few seconds. Lots of options, actually.

React would have to eventually contact the server as well if we're talking about an equivalent app.
I bought three or four pair of Darn Tough seven or eight years ago, and have picked up an average of another pair about every year since.

I've yet to discard any of them, though one of the pairs from that first year is juuuuust about shot and probably needs to go.

My only other socks are a pack of cheap white athletic socks (only worn for... doing athletic things, not counting stuff like hiking) and a pair or two of very thin non-wool black dress socks that I almost never wear.

A warning: I'd avoid buying them on Amazon, I got one pair on there that I'm pretty sure were counterfeit (felt much cheaper, developed holes after just a couple wears, fit was way different from all my others) so I only buy straight from DT now.

All I'm saying is that the technical debate between these different methodologies is what matters. If we agree on that, I have no dispute with you.

> Second, America is on 110

Kind of: 240V is fed into homes (along with a neutral), and gets split in half.

Most receptacles are 120V for most appliances, because it gets the job done. There aren't many appliances that need more than that. The two main ones that do have 220V plugs are clothes dryers and kitchen ranges (hobs/ovens).

If you want a kettle that boils faster change your NEMA 5 socket (and breaker) that does 120V (at 15A or 20A) for a NEMA 6, and get an UK/EU kettle and change the plug.

Maybe? It depends if your car is in the shop for repairs, or has a dead battery (especially if driven infrequently), etc. For most people, the carrying-cost of a car is probably a few thousand dollars a year (insurance, maintenance, parking, depreciation, etc). If you're driving frequently and parking costs are sane, it's definitely going to work out to own a cheap car, but if you genuinely use a car infrequently and rentals are readily available, it's worth running the numbers carefully.

I don't see how that could happen after the US pushed for globalism, globalism inherently requires keeping trade routes protected from interference, the moment the US pulls out from providing protection is the moment where these routes start to erode. If you are ok with all the impacts that will have in your life, go for it, I'm all in for less American interference around the globe.

You just need to be aware that the life you are used to (if you live in the USA) will be vastly different after this.

It's being downvoted because it has no place in a discussion around TikTok surveilling journalists and people that give negative PR to the company.

> Aside from Arianespace, Europe is currently fostering a number of private rocket companies, including Rocket Factory Augsburg, Isar Aerospace, PLD Space and Skyrora, with some of these rockets to be reusable. However the rockets in development are light-lift, whereas Ariane 6 and its possible successor are much more capable, medium-heavy-lift rockets.

The real problem is that there's no prototype path for Ariane. SpaceX had the grasshopper and others. The original space race was very incremental.

Hopefully the smaller companies will succeed with their more manageably sized rockets. Then they'll have to fight an uphill political battle against the big incumbents, just like SpaceX did.

Ariane could make prototypes too, but they probably won't.
