Of all web frameworks, with perhaps the exception of Ruby on Rails. I really struggle with lack of documentation or the quality of documentation. And lesser popular frameworks has a lot less volunteers sharing knowledge.

Spring Boot is one of the most popular web frameworks in the world. It is by far easier to figure out how to do build something that solves business problems in Spring / Hibernate than alternatives(except maybe RoR).

For example, do you want to use Micronaut, the Spring Boot killer? Good luck fetching a collection with string type. I takes basically 2 minutes to google how do this with Spring Boot / Hibernate, and it will take you a day or two to figure out it isn't possible at all with Micronaut without writing massive amount of code that binds the results from your SQL to your objects. This is one example, and it shows the madness in web frameworks. Why are we switching frameworks that only ends up slowing us down?

Spring Framework is a big framework, that solves many problems. It may be overwhelming the first year, but with a few years experience you do not want to switch, because other frameworks lacks or has ugly hacks for many Spring Framework features.

Other advantages, massive access to experts for hire. There are literally thousands of Spring Framework developers in my area. Also, since I am an expert myself, I can share my knowledge between these people, and together we are improving our knowledge at a rate other frameworks cannot offer and this gives us a massive innovation pace that brings increased business value.

The next time I will try another web framework, I need to see that my productivity gets improved immediately. Otherwise, is just noise.
Reddit didn't censor itself because Americans are not accepting of free speech. Reddit started censoring itself to appease corporate overlords. And the only reason those corpos embrace censorship is to stay out of the political crosshairs. How long did /r/jailbait exist before getting shutdown in 2011...and only because it was featured on Anderson Cooper?
The San Antonio river walk has been extended 15 miles along the San Antonio river north and south of the downtown area. It has spurred billions in investment along its banks. This is exactly what my point is, there isn't a resurgence in the downtown region because new development is happening north and south along the river.
> Unfortunately that opportunity has passed, and we can't re-educate people to use a different web than the one they're already used to. At least I'm pessimistic that any of these decentralized projects will gain any mainstream traction.

This doesnt ring true. The web becomes more disruptable by the day. Familiarity with various aspects of technology is diffusing in various parts of society. The hypes (crypto, AI etc) are conditioning people to accept that "stuff is happening". They wont switch for another social platform. They may not wear goggles in the billions. But they will try tangible proposals.

The real problem is that there is no assurance the "disruption" will a positive one.

No matter how bad we think about the situation somebody can find a way to make it worse.
Binary people are funny. Everything is always 1 or 0, nothing is ever undefined and the idea to have different levels of certainty never occurs to them.

It is a rather offensive way to portray the world. All the questions, all the puzzles, all the mystery, everything has been answered and further investigation frowned upon. They would have to again defend their chosen "truth", they would have to question everything!

Yes. For all the cases you've mentioned, I might want to share my blocklist - but it should be an option rather than the default. I may want to share it only with select individuals rather than everyone who might want to use it to scrape it, archive it, monetize it, and stir online drama on my behalf AND on behalf of whomever I've blocked.

Seriously, it's worse than on Twitter. Bluesky slowly starts looking like "let's redo ActivityPub but so we can make money off it".

My understanding is that the clean room approach is tried and true and sufficient to avoid copyright infringement. So BigCo and other organizations that worry greatly about liability insist on it.

However I'm unaware of case law indicating that it's strictly necessary. If the final implementation differs enough from the original, no copyright infringement occurs and no one is going to sue anyone, so the steps taken to arrive at the new version are less relevant.

Samsung turns their screens and phone cameras to “vivid” processing by default (they do provide a “natural” toggle, to their credit).

I think over 90% of people don’t realize what they are seeing is not close to reality, and instead ask people with other phones, especially iPhones, why their screen or photo looks so washed out.

There’s many faults to BFDLs, but I love Apple providing “vivid” processing as an option and “natural” as the default. Sometimes the masses just don’t know what’s actually good for them.
This is mostly the trick - today you start pet project in python, in a year you need to scale it on 1M clients. No one knows anything about what is right technology as requirements change too quickly.
Yes, exactly, that sentiment isn’t mainstream. It goes against dominant social values and norms.

The dominant view in society is stuff like ”jailbait” shouldn’t be tolerated. The reason it’s not outright illegal is in a non-prurient context a yearbook photo may just be a photo. It’s when you post it to a forum for gutter creeps that the qualitative nature changes.
> because you know that something that has an effect you enjoy immensely

I know someone who prescribes naltrexone for alcohol addiction, which has the specific purpose of blocking the positive effect of the alcohol. So you can have the drink, and you won't enjoy it, and it's easier to live with.
ColdFusion, may it remain buried for good. I was forced to use it in the 90's and was struck by how much more work it was to get something sensible up and running with it compared to using Perl. I finally got them to ditch it and life was good - or at least better.
I think we need more simple alternatives like this, https://javalin.io/ is another project I have been following which looks simpler to me.

while that works, it does not fully document what is expected from caller. And AFAIK using tuples like that is not very common. I'd prefer something like:

Those teams seem pretty rare though. It also requires an org that lets the team not listen. Also what exactly is non-technical management? In most tech companies most managers are with a technical background. The problem is that they naturally drift further away from technology when not practicing it.

For the query string, you don’t have to implement your own DSL. Elasticsearch supports it out of the box. You could POST a JSON object to “/_search” but you can also do a GET with the “q” query parameter.
Documentation: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/curr...

In the Golang library you can use the “Search.WithQuery” option. This means you don’t have to construct a JSON request body.

Wherever you get the energy to compress it from, you still need to spend ~30% of the energy content of the hydrogen to compress it to a liquid.

There is no evidence to support the idea that BEVs (cars or trucks) will remain short-ranged urban vehicle. Even the "entry" level BEVs in NA, like the leaf, have gotten to EPA ranges of 360 km, a number that is only ever going to go up.

Even trucking is slowly getting there as the battery tech improves. In Europe Mercedes is testing trucks, today, which hit 200-400 km before needing to charge [0]. That's not enough for long distance, but that doesn't matter. They can serve this market and when they're ready they can expand to longer ranges.

Further, there is even less evidence that in applications where BEVs don't (and won't) work that hydrogen is the winning solution. What is hydrogen's go to market strategy? Introduce trucks for long range that have higher up front costs and higher total cost of ownership that diesel trucks, plus severely limit where you can drive since you depend on a (non-existent) hydrogen network?

Running is also used successfully by heroin addicts to help quit. It's actually one of the best ways to help with many addictions.

> movements per minute and pulsations per minute

According to an ex-Sonicare senior engineer I work with, this is not actually what's important at all. The key thing they looked at (and still do look at) is the amplitude/travel distance of the bristle tips, and how that changes under load. It should stay strong under light load, but collapse under heavy load (so that when you mash the thing way too hard into your gums, power transfer stops and your gums don't get brutalized). It's a surprisingly delicate balance.

We recently had cause to look at a few of these devices (sorry for the vagueness, you know how it goes) and most of the non-Sonicare ones are pretty awful. The rotary Oral-B ones aren't bad at what they are, but they aren't the same. There is one Sonicare clone that really impressed though, and it's not expensive.

> I think golang shows that a synchronous, imperative paradigm wins the masses.

I am not sure go shows that... Attributed the "poplarity"of go solely to its async model is kind of a leap.

> I'm not too brushed up with Kotlin suspend, but does it suffer from the classic "function coloring" problem

I never quite understand why function coloring is referred to as a problem. Including the async/non-async nature of a function in its signature is as natural as using any other monadic types as a return, such as Optional for example.

> My great hope for virtual threads in Java is that we can bring great IO performance and scalability, on par with golang, without retraining devs.

I think that's sometime a conflation that happens : virtual thread usually ease scalability at the the cost of performance.
I think the pace of change has been just right, though. They added a graphical editor and modernifed the interface styling. Both of those changes happened about 5 years later than I would have expected, but you can tell they were carried out with extreme care not to piss off any users. We end up with an experience that pleases everyone.

I’m like 95%, but not 100%, sure this is not a deep fake. Is there any corroborating evidence that he actually said this? If true, it should be easy, since it looks like a pretty well attended event.

Alternatively, I would love some pointers for spreading deep fakes at this stage of technology. I am no expert, but the counterintuitive statement makes me double check.
Scala stdlib is considerably better than the one from Kotlin, one detail I dislike about Kotlin collections is that `map` invocations always result in a List.
The obvious alternative is to have blocks be local only, ie a view filter. This would solve the privacy issue. I think I like that model better (but to be fair have not thought it through fully).

However, I think I understand why they’re doing it. Bluesky is modeled after Twitter, which has sort of public popularity contest features built in, like retweets and replies, which can let malicious users signal boost using your account. Without a public blocklist, there’s no way to stop that signal boosting, which gives the upper hand to bad actors.
I feel like there's a way to put salts and hashes in here so that I can publish a list of conditions, "don't send traffic my way if myblocklist.includes(argon2($username + $salt)"

Small subreddits are largely not participating. Large subreddits I just browse from the All or Popular. I’m thinking if the large subreddits don’t inject things into the All subreddit than largely identical content will be injected and this will be a blip as small as the last protest that only saw the main subreddit names change and nothing more.
This whole fiasco leaves me shocked and surprised. I never considered that Reddit would sink themselves this way. It’s incredible. Until the AMA, I really had hope they’d back off and implement a sane API pricing model. That apps like Apollo would survive, diminished, and things would mostly continue on business-as-usual. But now, well, that’s it I guess. It’s been a long, slow decline, but I guess this is the end of the road.
I'll attempt to clarify.

America is the first (and maybe only, ever?) major
imperial power that allows such open discussion of
its atrocities.

I did not claim that America was the first imperial power to allow public dissent. That, as I'm sure you'd agree, is manifestly untrue.

So it's unclear to me what point you're attempting to make by pointing out a single instance of prior public dissent in the British Empire.

Particularly since Swift's work of satire was not exactly a direct criticism of the British Empire, nor a catalogue of its atrocities.

If you do the minimum feasible amount of research and read the Wikipedia article, you will learn that it was largely a parody of other such popular contemporary treatises, a thing that is easy to miss in 2023 if you aren't familiar with the context in which "A Modest Proposal" was written.

Back to my original post... I certainly don't think America was the first to allow such dissent. I think it is the first to do so on such a scale.

(I also don't necessarily think America allows such dissent for entirely noble purposes. As has been often pointed out, legitimate criticism and evidence often gets lumped in with whackadoo fake conspiracy theories and is therefore discredited by default in the public's mind. The end result is a more effective form of suppression than could be achieved by direct totalitarian repression. The US government will let you talk about the MKUltra experiments or Guantanamo all day long because barely anybody will believe you, or care.)
They're definitely exceptional cases, but in general tropical fruit (mangos, pineapples, even bananas) can be up to two or three times the price you might be used to paying in the US (or even Australia - not sure what it's like now but when I was in the US 15 years ago I remember bananas being especially cheap even in supermarkets - here you generally have to go to dedicated fruit/veg markets to get fresh produce cheaply).
I worked at a university and we used WedObjects for a lot of project. I still believe that it could be around today and competing with the best "stacks" available. Limiting factors would be price and deployment options.

But alas, it wasn't viewed in the light by everyone and other "stacks" became more popular.
What happens if reddit crosses that line is completely up to community response. People could go on as usual and nothing happens or there could be an even more visceral backlash. History says business as usual but no one really knows what would happen.
It's probably not even the pattern, just the drive frequency. The system is operated just off resonance, so getting the frequency right is really important. You can do this easily with feedback from the drive assembly and no NFC, or you can do with with NFC to tell you what's on the other end and just do it open-loop. The feedback method is cheaper (I think), so it's what was done previously. But if you want brush head ID, you go the other route....
I don't see much advantage from Kotlin unless you are stuck with an old jdk (like the one from Android), still, the latest jdk is still far away from current Scala.
The topic has been analyzed quite extensively in my small bubble of very experienced people (mostly software developers, some with management experience, but also other people from various fields).
We asked ourselves why so often such strange decisions are made out of management and our basic attitude was that we simply don't have the necessary information to be able to evaluate these decisions reasonably.

So we gathered a lot of information, as much of it as possible directly from management itself.
We have indeed found information that explains some managerial decisions, but so far only of the variety that have benefited individual managers themselves, and always with negative consequences for the majority of others.

However, the overwhelming majority of what we consider peculiar (up to catastrophic) decisions are due to a combination of hubris, impostor syndrome and absolute incompetence.
In one case where we could least explain the decisions at first, a manager under the influence of alcohol virtually admitted that they were not only aware of their own incompetence, but that they intentionally got rid of overly competent people so that they wouldn't make them look so bad.
It's a mess.

Please point out, specifically, where he has done this. Otherwise, STFU.

To be clear, it's not like I've been following every one of his posts, so it's quite possible he said things that aren't accurate. So far, though, I've seen nothing but vague accusations against Christian, and when he did call bullshit and brought the receipts to back it up, u/spez said he was "leaking a private call". Queen please, he libeled Christian and then when Christian brought evidence to prove him wrong he complained!! What an asshat.
