Thanks, I hate it (all the unnecessary padding wastes even more precious screen space than before).

The Visual Studio team should take a close look at the Visual Studio Code UI, it's not perfect, but at least it's still relatively clutter free and compact.
I'm hopeful that they'll somewhat keep the tablet form factor working because it'll be used when a foldable device is open; it's just a bit bigger.

I'm not hopeful enough to go buy a tablet, however.
Let's play a game. Tell me as much as you can about the password without revealing it (or any of its parts). You may tell clues, synonyms, words rhyming with it, but not the password itself.

No they don’t. People hold the phone vertically when shooting video because it’s the easiest ergonomically to do one-handed.
There are so many more factors than heat though

For one, I thought charging slower was better, so could the increased heat be offset by that? Also, it's more heat per joule transferred, but over a longer period of time, is that not better than sudden heat from fast charging?
Buy several sizes, return the ones that don't fit.

This seems a bit nonsensical to me however I am reliably informed that this is the modern way.
The VSCode UI is actually much more compact. This is "Visual Studio proper" which only exists on Windows.
Children's palate is still developing, that's why they like different tastes than they would as a adults. It literally tastes different to them!
My preorder (the first game I preordered in 20 years) came one day early. It was the closest I've come to that childhood feeling of a birthday or Christmas present. Spent a few hours on it after putting my kid to bed and it's definitely succeeded in drawing me into that world again.

I'm somewhat amazed how each Zelda (or Mario for that matter) title is essentially exactly the same story over and over, but still with enough changes to make it feel totally new again. Sure, a lot of the mechanics are the same as in BOTW (the good and the bad), maybe more of an evolution than a revolution, but critics saying it's like a DLC for BOTW are wrong.
It's interesting to compare this against the JetBrains UI refresh.

From the images, it looks like the VS team just increased the spacing a bit and made some sensible adjustment to the chrome. That's not necessarily a bad decision as screens get larger, but the JetBrains team also reconsidered how elements should be arranged in the UI.

For example, the JetBrains team identified the project-switcher, branch-switcher and run-widget as the most important widgets for the title bar. Nobody still uses undo, redo, save and open buttons so why are they in the VS interface by default? They did the same for their toolbar, their icons [1], the gutter...

As a result, the new JetBrains UI looks significantly cleaner even in compact mode (old spacing + new ui).

Without these fundamental reconsiderations the new VS interface looks just as cluttered, but larger.

[1]: Although the VS icons still hold up well.
As an autistic person, trust me when I say you don't want me to attempt forced eye contact. It's many many many levels more unnerving to have "bad" eye contact than a lack of eye contact.
I guess there are two separate problems here:

1. The UX problem where connection problems aren't signalled properly

2. A single server bringing down the whole service (from that server's user's perspective)

1 should be easy to report and perhaps even fix. I don't know if 2 can be fixed with this decentralized design. Matrix in its current form is quite vulnerable to single server failures.
You have to include USB-C charging but that doesn't mean you can't use other charging methods (like the new Macbooks that have magsafe and USB-C)
Other countries also have weather and they seem to cope ok with it. Obviously there are some extremes which can make it unpleasant but for the most part the weather isn't as big a deal as it's made out to be when it comes to cycling.

E-bikes mostly solve the effort and sweat aspect. But that introduces a larger entry cost.

I'd say distance is the biggest factor preventing it taking off in the US (Outside of Cities). A mixture of cycling + transit could solve the longer distances.

Thank goodness. I was really worried with all the code I was able to fit on my screen at one time. This will reduce my cognitive load by seeing less code and taking frequent scrolling breaks.

Hopefully soon we can get rid of all of those confusing keyboard shortcuts too. Maybe add a ribbon or two.

The only game I'm genuinely excited about its release, and the only exception to the "no preorders" rule.
Sometimes its "better late than never". Sometimes its "too little too late". The next few years will reveal the true nature of the "digital revolution"

Digital tech is unlike any tech before. It is general purpose, malleable, reprogrammable, with active IO and feedback loops with the human realm. It does have some "genes" and biases in the form of chip design and specialization, but this pales compared to the phenotype diversity of everything that can "run" on it.

The worldwide surface of silicon chips creates thus a blank slate that captures and reflects like a mirror an ever increasing slice of our condition. If the digital image is going dark its because our societies are currently regressing.

The accelerating dehumanising journey of digital tech is a direct reflection of long lived, pre-existing latent beliefs that deny people of essential human dimensions: agency, social bonds, inner spaces and spirituality, harmonious coexistence with nature.

Reclaiming this digital exo-brain (that is cabable for the worst and the best) by the forces of the broader humanistic movement is the prime objective.

Humanity's journey towards ubuntu is long and tortured. Ripping hearts of captives to please imaginary gods in public spectacles was yesterday.

The debilitating thought is that we are past redemption. That the emergent behavior from shapping the mirror of social media platforms and surveillance devices has pulled us into a twilight zone with no escape.

My gut feeling is that it is not yet so dire. It may get there in the mid-term future. What we need to do is make humanism viral. It exists not because of some idealists but because its inate and congruent with what people want. It needs to get reflected in the digital mirror. It already does at the edges. As open source software. As collaboration platforms like wikipedia and openstreetmaps. As the fediverse.

Lets hope and work towards moving it to the center.
We're kinda waiting to see what form it will take, but there seems to be a belief we are headed toward a required to show type scenario. I think it was one of your earlier comments that said something I completely agree with - clients should always have the ability to walk away from an agent they no longer want to work with, and should not feel pressured into signing an agreement that might create a binding relationship they don't want. Already we're strongly encouraged by our state legal advisor and MLS best practices to use buyer agency agreements - but I (mostly) don't for exactly the reasons you stated - if a client wants to work with me, they will, and if they don't, a piece of paper shouldn't force them. The general public is scared / distrustful enough of Realtors, and now we're supposed to put this legal document in their face the moment we meet them? Sounds like a good way to further create distrust and alienation.
FWIW, I waited longer (30 to 60 seconds) now, and it did load (though was too laggy to interact with). It would be too painful to profile/debug at these speeds, but if you will be looking into further optimization, a few options that come to mind are: a textual representation (an article name and lists of referenced and referencing ones), a 2D interactive graph (those made with D3.js tend to be not so laggy), or a static graph -- a picture. Pretty sure an interactive 3D graph can also be made to work, but likely that would require to find out what is causing the lags.
We are hopelessly committed to both.
Of course they can, but two or three copies might not be enough. And chances of keeping some conspiracy a secret with more than two people for extended periods of time are diminishingly small.

> you can't guarantee where that data goes, how it's stored through its life, etc.

Sure, it's definitely a security risk.

However there is a strong line betweeen a first party spyware that collects data to sell, and the malware discussed in this article, that was specifically places there to try to steal your credit card or banking info for criminals.

I'm fine with legal penalties for the manufacturers in both cases though.
Crappy stuff. Why is HN upvoting this?
I think it would make more sense for Nintendo to make a more powerful console on a compatible platform that isn't handheld, kind of like the Sega Master System/Game Gear or Sega Mega Drive/Nomad consoles.

So you can enjoy the same titles on the go as you can on the TV, and you could still use the Switch on the TV, but there would be an alternative for people who want a more high fidelity, fluid experience on a TV or a monitor.

It doesn't even have to be that much more powerful. Even when sticking to the same vendor, a 2018 Nvidia ARM chip had roughly 3-4x the CPU power and 10x the GPU power of the Switch, in a 15-60W power budget. This would be fine for a console that's always plugged into the power mains.

Going to more midrange vendors like Rockchip or Mediatek, or - and this is a long shot - striking a deal with Samsung for using their Exynos chips would probably yield a lower cost device but still net a 4-5x increase in gaming performance.

Emulation has proven that the games are not tied so tightly to their hardware platform for switching to a more modern architecture while maintaining compatibility to be an issue. Even without first-party involvement people have been running Switch games on mobile Android devices with a good processor.
I have seen people do this and it is definitely a breach of etiquette.

Apple juice in a whiskey glass is a good one too. People just sort of assume the alcohol content.

Or if you're in a place where they sell ginger beer that's a good one too. Looks like it probably ought to be alcoholic, has "beer" in the name, but is alcohol free.
Try riding a bear or a stag instead of a horse to mix it up a little.
> that's not necessarily a bad decision as screens get larger

Maybe true for desktop monitors, but not laptops. They really need to add an optional compact mode if they go with this redesign. Visual Studio is already wasting too much vertical space as is.

It does have the same system so I guess you should return it/cancel your order.

Like BOTW, even from the very beginning of the game, you never run out of weapons/always have more weapons than slots, so for anyone else, I'd recommend not worrying about it. There's a new modding mechanic that makes swapping around weapons even more fun now.

(Note: this is meant to be a DAG - so edges have implied arrows.)

Here, reply "CCC" referred to / quoted replies "A1", "A3" and "BBB" - not only merging sub-branches of subthread "AAA", but also joining in subthread "BBB" as well. Text-wise, it would look something like:

> [quote from A1]
Yes, another poster covered it [BBB](here):

> [quote from BBB]

Also, [A3](that other thing) is actually the same thing
in disguise, because ...

We've been doing stuff like this for ages - personally I've seen or done it many times on phpBB boards and in e-mails - but, because the interface itself was linear (or at best tree-shaped), you have to keep track of the implied DAG on your own, in your head. What I'm asking/wishing for is an UI that supports and visualizes this natively.

> And how would you feed that back into ChatGPT? ChatGPT takes in a linear ordering of messages, not a tree or DAG.

One possibility:

See diagram above. THREAD ROOT is your prompt. Say "CCC" is your reply. When you send it, the app would take the subgraph that stars with "THREAD ROOT" and ends with "CCC" (i.e. containing these two nodes and all other nodes on any of possible paths between start and end), and sort them topologically to get a linear sequence.

To give GPT-4 extra chance at comprehending the structure, we could even format each message like this:

Chat-Message-ID: <CCC-uuid>
In-Reply-To: <A1-uuid>, <A3-uuid>, <BBB-uuid>

Text of the message.

Kind of like e-mail.

With GPT-4 32k, we could probably just dump the entire graph, to give GPT-4 a chance to make merges/cross-references on its own.

Also: it's really the same thing as e.g. resolving dependencies when building software. Dependencies form a DAG, but build order is linear (excluding parallelism, which is an optimization) - the build system toposorts the DAG and builds things in order.

Why Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores’ Hugs Are a Secret Technical Marvel
Yeah I do similar, I actually use musicolet to listen to my offline music library (https://krosbits.in/musicolet), an android app that is just offline, no ads, no network permission at all, nothing. It does the job very well and it does not mine any data or show any ads. I highly recommend to give it a try (I assume you use android?).

And to add, while it is free and I could have continued just fine not paying anything to use it, I have paid for the "pro features" that I did not even need (apart from chromecast which I do not use, the other pro features were mainly aesthetic) just to support the developer for providing such a great app that respects my privacy and does not bloat my phone. People think that somehow those who do not want to pay to youtube just want to get everything for free. I have no issue with paying for any service that adds value to my life and respects my privacy, but youtube/google is not just that, and the fact that I use youtube for free does not mean that I would use it the same way if I had to pay for it or had to watch ads all the time. And to be honest, the fact that the app did not require me to support it in order to not send me ads or whatever, made me more incentivised to actually support it, because the incentive to support comes exactly from the appreciation of the experience it provides.

Maybe this sounds like an ad for that app, and it actually is so. I think that such pieces of software that really respect the privacy and provide an alternative to shameless streaming services like the one discussed here are worth being advertised by their happy users.
Sure - it sucks doing self-learning and working in your own time but when else are you supposed to polish your skills beyond what work projects give you latitude to do?

For example I was in a tech company where XMPP was the core of every one of our products. There were almost no REST based APIs in the company and we had our own protocols and APIs which made much of what I did very specific and non transferable. Day in and out I worked with XML, asynchronous messaging and increasingly niche tooling as XMPP became less and less relevant and HTTP based APIs like REST-JSON and WebSockets displaced it.

It wasn’t hard to move jobs but it wasn’t easy either. I had to spend a month or so in my own time learning REST, JSON, WebSockets and Spring MVC in order to pass interviews.

I think constant productivity culture leads to burnout but there’s got to be a middle ground between doing nothing after hours and hustling non-stop.
It's actually what is happening all the time, but this exactly what Apple wants. After all this is not way of protection from industrial espionage, but protection from journalists and press leaks.

Imagine you are a journalist and being retold a same secret by 3-4 different sources rewritten by different degree. Figuring what facts are correct and what sources can be trusted is much harder than if you would just been given access to original document.

There's a method (speed running glitch) to get the master sword w/o the heart requirement. Do a search for "botw get the master sword early" and you should have lots of step by steps if you ever want to do it.
> How is data being “stolen”?

You tell me, I was responding to your hypothetical question:
"If you were actually worried about YouTube stealing your data, why do you keep giving it to them by using their service?"

>An ad blocker prevents you from seeing ads but it doesn't do anything to prevent resale of the data you volunteer

True. That's why I still volunteer as little data as possible.
Basically: another active thinking activity goes passive. As always with society-level events the fallout will become apparent when it has happened.
I can't really draw a parallel to those games, probably the closest would be to fallout, the open world 3d ones specifically. BotW & now TOTK have a massive focus on it's world and it's pretty immersive to clamber over mountains and discover things. It has unique systems to interact and traverse the world, improved further in TOTK.
I think it's great that it maintains a solid 30 and seems to have very few issues.

Another interesting perspective is that it—a game made at the end of the Switch's life (we hope)—is only marginally prettier and more polished than BOTW—a launch title. I would still hold BOTW as one of the prettiest Switch titles, including third parties (I realise this is subjective). I'm not sure of another console where you don't make graphical progress in 6 years of it existing. I don't know why this is, or even if it's a failing, I just think it's interesting.
It's nonsense, GoF didn't seem to play any role in vaccine development. It's what virologists tell themselves and each other.

Others have commented on the excessive padding, there seems to be a cycle of increasing and decreasing the padding at Microsoft.

Anyway, I welcome this effort. It will be very beneficial for fluent design if Microsoft tries to apply it to a serious app like Visual Studio. The current state is fine for smaller apps, simple list-detail views and so on. But there are a couple of problems for larger, productivity style apps. The menu bar is needlessly spacey, there are no rich list/detail views a la Explorer, keyboard navigation is tricky... If Microsoft is going all in on Fluent (with Office, Explorer, Terminal, Visual Studio), they will hit these limitations. And I hope that the new widgets they are developing will soon be available for others as well.
The setting that you are looking for is "Reopen documents that were open at last quit" and it's found under "Application" in settings.
