I know this case. Indeed it adds some complexity in debugging and it does require that the user of such annotation understands how it works and what are the side effects. However this is probably the only case that causes so much trouble and it would deserve a dedicated compiler or IDE warning* for inexperienced engineers.
There are many ways to shoot in the leg by using some tool or API incorrectly - it doesn’t mean the tool is bad.

*I would do it by introducing a new annotation:

@ProxyImplementation
public @interface Cacheable {}

Compiler can trigger a warning when a method invokes another method of the same class which is annotated with annotation marked as implemented by proxy.

Maybe Sonar or similar tool already does this kind of analysis.
Personally, if i signed up, i would not be interested in getting payouts. I'd have to declare them on my tax return, and it's just not worth it for such small amounts. So a checkbox to donate any payouts to a charity (the EFF, perhaps?) would be great.
And I just can't understand how people use one cause for an effect: London is in the top 10 surveilled cities in the world after China, and UK laws like Section 60 allows stop and search without suspicion. Yeah, it's gun control that lowered the murders in the UK, and I am sure you are good with the UK turning into a real version of Orwell's 1984.

Statistics need context. The term "mass shooting" is defined differently by different agencies/organizations in the US as well as all over the world.
England also has the highest rate of tornadoes per land area in the world, but nobody would think they were at risk for being harmed by a tornado in England vs. the US.

It's a hard problem for sure. My hope is that paid users are easier to moderate than unpaid users, especially when Stripe Connect (what I use for payouts) verifies identity quite a bit.
Feature flags in source control seems to be missing the point.

Separating feature flags and source let’s you decouple your code releases from your feature releases. Requiring a deploy of new to code to enable or disable a feature seems to negate almost all of the benefit of using feature flags to begin with.

"The current system works well enough" is a poor justification to avoid technological progress. I imagine people said the same thing about automobiles during the era of horses & buggies... yet here we are.

A much better argument is the indelible nature of physical signatures. But even that factor has pluses & minuses in an increasingly-digital world. If anything, we need digital signatures - e.g. to watermark original images, videos, articles, etc in an era of deepfakes.

I love awk as much as the next person and I've written some pretty large scripts with it, but the original grep/sort/uniq is a lot easier to understand in two seconds. I don't think it's "useless" at all.

Also your awk isn't exactly identical as it's not sorted, but in this case that probably doesn't matter.

Since you don't have control over your height (and to a lesser extent, since you can't get more legroom by buying an additional seat), I don't have a problem with adding more space between rows to accommodate tall people. It's wider seats that I have an issue with.
To be honest I got excited with the SimulaOne for the exact same reason.

OpenStreetMap costs a few hundred thousand dollars a year to run. Wikipedia is about $3 million. Redditors are cheap, but you can have a backend doing the heavy lifting for a community (assuming mods work for free) at a cost that can be sustained with a small pool of financial contributors.

> VCs to continue to pour hundreds of millions of dollars to run the site and never ask for an ROI

None of this needs to cost hundreds of millions of dollars.
The pattern described in the initial link is "915". That means throwing a ball to the height of a 9 ball pattern (the height you would throw if juggling 9 balls normally), next ball to a 1 ball height (essentially handing it across), then the third throw is to a 5 ball pattern height.

Then you repeat -- starting with the other hand.

The three heights add up to 15, with 3 throws in the sequence, so this is a pattern to be juggled with 5 balls.

A three ball sequence would be written as "3". "333" would be the same thing as it is just a repetition of the same "3" sequence.

Even numbers are thrown to the same hand.

There are more advanced notations for throwing two at the same time, or for a pause, and I'm not sure what a "2" would represent (hold in same hand one beat maybe).

I think it's splitting hairs, but even then I disagree. I can't see how the evolution and emergence of a virus is not a question of applied science.

That it is commingled with a million political questions, yes it's true. But to me that's a nuisance variable, not fundamentally changing the underlying question.
I also saw this and was initially both equally horrified and impressed.
And one more thing to think of, how to make this new good product resistant to EEE (embrace, extend, extinguish). Because you want to make it open, this means it's open to multi billion corporations who can throw lots of $$$ and build a nicer client really fast. And from there, well we know how it goes.
No, my original point stands. Rather than taking the article at its word, or those organizations, you repeatedly read into it a third party's beliefs (the people you mention about burning the flag) and now you are saying that I'm saying everyone agrees with them (the people that you made up?) I'm not sure how you got that from my post. Where did I say anything like that?

My point is I don't care that you found some randos that disagree about what violence or hate is, that doesn't actually amount to a crisis in the definitions of these words.

If anyone, it's you insisting that there is such widespread disagreement on the meaning of hate and violence, and that such a disagreement is untenable. But I don't see that to be the case at all, and if you had responded in good faith, and didn't impart a third party's beliefs into the article, then we'd have never gotten to this point in conversation. There are people that think the world is flat, there might be even more of them than the flag burners you talk about, nevertheless we recognize that the world isn't flat.
You know I often daydream of creating a social media site that has a small monthly subscription, a way to show users they are not the product, a way to maintain integrity and not have to appease any VCs.

But when faced with it here I couldn't help but recoil a bit, and I'm not sure why.
> I used to report it to the site admins, but among the few that responded, almost none knew how to fix it. I no longer bother, so I suspect that the less clueless admins have no idea how many visitors Cloudflare has driven away.

It's an acceptable cost, versus other ways of dealing with abusive traffic.

Hell, we (sysadmins, back when that was a term people used) used to just blackhole all the IP blocks associated with certain countries—made the logs so very much quieter, and this was back when the whole Internet was a lot quieter to begin with. At least CloudFlare's less blunt than that.

Failing to block abusive traffic can be really expensive. Detecting it is always going to cause false positives. Admins are OK with those as long as they don't cost more than implementing a system with fewer false positives would. A half-percent tax on revenue (to pick a number out of a hat) in the form of lost customers is a reasonable trade-off for a lot of companies. You've got to have pretty serious scale before it's worth investing real money to try to shave that down by a couple tenths of a percent (you'll never get it to zero, and only places like Amazon have the kind of scale that make it worth attempting to closely approach zero)
I didn't say that this is how debates work. How they should work however:

> B: I don't think that is the case. Could you share an example?

See where nobody had to disprove anything with data across 100% of the spectrum? That's because nobody made the claim that A is wrong. You however made an absolute claim, so you have to provide the data for it.
In reality they're probably good enough for most of users - but in theory any SW based solution can theoretically get exploited, so external key that requires user action is certainly more secure (and not significantly more inconvenient to use - you need to press something in both cases).

It’s not a documentary purporting to be a factual examination of multiple people’s life stories or an analysis of social attitudes to the elderly.

It’s a touching essay detailing one man’s thoughts and experiences as he moves through life, presented with the intention of eliciting certain feelings and thoughts in the reader. And that’s all it needs to be.

I have been using the light phone 2 (https://www.thelightphone.com/) for the last year. I chose it specifically because it had group messaging support and nothing else really. I do use the music player on it sometimes when jogging. It might be a good option for you if group text is all you want. Anyhow, I'm starting to look for alternatives because it can't really handle image messages, and so many people communicate using pictures that it started to get quite frustrating being unable to understand what they were trying to send me. The JMP chat thing seems pretty interesting.
I don’t want to be nosey but given that it sounds like you feel like it’s a paradigm shifting device, and you’ve actually worked on and with the device, I’d be interested to read about your motivations for moving on from Apple/the project when you did if you ever feel like writing about it.

So many questions I’d love to ask you about this, but again, none of my business. Just wanted to let you know I’d upvote that blog post to the moon should you ever decide to write it.
Me too. I think the ReScript people were well within their rights to fork off - they realized that what they wanted was a better JS and compatibility with OCaml held them back, but it also split an already small community and made it hard for me to convince even myself to pick OCaml for hobby projects. I'm glad melange is picking up and becoming viable, and once the situation with multicore and web frameworks built on multicore stabilizes I'd love to make a full-stack OCaml web app.
Reminds me of retroshare, which is fully peer to peer and anonymizing. Anyone here try it before? Meant for closed communities and not open/global so a different niche I suppose

The problem is that Facebook appealed to basically everyone. You had young and old alike from various social circles all using the platform.

If Metaverse only appeals to a small group of people, it’s a failure. Because it’s supposed to push Facebook forward, and it’s hard for a company to limit its own market. It could be done successfully by spinning the company off, but for whatever reason they just do not want to do that.

And I think fundamentally VR and virtual worlds is just not going to appeal to a mass market of people. There are so many people who are just not interested in spending time in ‘Techno-world’. These people liked Facebook because (a) they talked to their real friends and (b) it was unobtrusive enough to not bother them. A lot of people quit Facebook as soon as they felt it was encroaching their lives too much.
Well, considering Reddit is becoming infested with bots now, I’d say Reddit is next after the Google takeover.

My setup might not be exactly what you are looking for, but could be close enough:

1. For Atom/RSS feeds, I use elfeed-org[0]. (including YouTube channels). You can also use elfeed-tube[1] to watch videos on mpv without accessing the website.
2. For spaced-repetition, I also use org-drill[2], this makes it easy to take notes while reading PDFs with pdf-tools[3].
3. For priority tracking, I use the builtin org-agenda with org-super-agenda[4] to create "views" based on some metadata[5].

This is all done in the same plain text format (org files) and synced in a Git repository.

On the Vision Pro, tap your index finger and thumb together.

That or they add voice commands, "open", "select" and such.

I suppose ultimately in spatial computing with voice interface and eye tracking the concept of a "click" may die.
You're probably aware of this, but the comparison tool allows selecting larger images. That first image is 3 bpp if you select "large".

> Usually we store images at 3.5 - 5 BPP (Cameras)

That's appropriate for JPEGs, but given that more recent compression algorithms do a better job, it's probably worth looking at lower bitrates. I pulled some JPEGs off my Canon DSLR for example, and they're around 2-4 bpp for landscape photos.

It's not surprising to see acceptable JPEG XL images with half that bitrate.

Sure, and one of their users could have distributed a version that put it back in.
Sure they have a right, but their decisions based on that right are inconveniencing a ton of people.

It seems a better solution would be for them to just leave, and hand over the subs to people who have no issue with the API changes and are happy to continue to moderate.

I mean, if their protest works I'm all for it, but I suspect it won't, and the communities that want to keep on communing don't deserve to die because mods made a unilateral choice for everybody.
Where do you draw the line?

Where is the line that separates individual responsibility and culture from the responsibilities of governments? I don't know. It's very fuzzy. There's a mountain of good data, advice, and substitutes that can let someone eat healthy and avoid obesity. The resources and help are out there - yet obesity happens regardless. Can it really be said to be the fault of the whole?

Just because the problem is widespread doesn't mean it's not individual responsibility.

As for phones, that's more complicated. There's less clear-cut about how best to tackle those problems compared to obesity.

> In short, my brain has crossed a Rubicon and now feels like experiences constrained to small, rectangular screens are lesser experiences.

The funny thing about this statement is that Vision Pro is in fact the smallest rectangular screen of any device he's written code for.

He's hyped up. That's normal. In time he'll understand Vision Pro doesn't provide any better UX for common activities. In fact it's worse in many ways.

Where Vision Pro may shine is tasks where you need to perceive and manipulate complex three-dimensional objects, as they would be in physical space. I see great uses in engineering, design, art. It'd be great to preview interior design, design cars, architecture, create machinery and so on.

It'll also be great for previewing products, so online stores become a lot more viable than they are now, as you get a sense of size and style for an item in Vision Pro.

It may also be great for education, training, simulations.

It has many great uses. But basic apps isn't it. And most people won't care. This thing sucks to wear for more than 20 minutes. It's heavy and uncomfortable. You can't share your experience with others, either. It costs a lot. And you can't multitask with it. I can walk to a place and do something on my phone.

The input model also sucks. To code, for example, you need to hook a bluetooth keyboard and mouse. Looking at symbols one by one to fingertap would be comically slow. At which point, you may as well just get 2-3 screens and work on a normal workstation. For less money.
I think a reason Congress is willing to impose a contract on railroad workers is that they genuinely can make a credible threat against the broader economy in a way that airline pilots can't. Just to name a single sector, a railroad strike could jeopardize around 70% of coal electrical production, which makes up 20% of electrical generation in the country. While industrial action by pilots would be devastating for a few industries, the railroads really could hurt large portions of the entire economy.

I tend to think UPS is a lot more like pilots than railroad workers, especially since there are alternatives if you really do need to ship something right away.

I've been using GitHub Issues as a coding journal for a few years now and found it to work incredibly well.

I work on most of my projects in public repositories and often end up posting hundreds of issues with thousands of accumulated comments across them all.

I also have private repos which I use just for issue threads for coding journal mode entries that I'm not ready to share.

Occasionally I'll take one of those private issues and make it public later on, for example this one: https://github.com/simonw/public-notes/issues/1

It looks like there are roughly 128k public EV charging stations in the US, of which 28k are DC fast chargers, of which 17k are Tesla Superchargers and 6600 are CSS chargers.

* kbin (kbin.pub)

Another place I like for community stuff is Discord. Yeah it's an instant-messaging platform and its target demographic is mostly gamers, but you can likely find one related to your city, and they added a "forum" option where you can easily participate. But it's proprietary, so you never know when they'll pull the rug like Reddit did.
We use the flag to mean "made in Canada" and we use it in an international context to indicate Canadian goods & assets - which, in my opinion, is what flags are meant for.

What you won't see is people putting flags on their lawns, on their cars, on their clothes or anything like that. The exception is tourist stores, which are full of flags, but you won't see Canadians shopping there.
Eye tracking will probably lose the productivity metric, though. When you remove the ability to look at one thing and interact with another, you get farther from the way that humans tend to interact with their immediate physical environment.

I can cut vegetables without looking at them. I can use that dynamic to offset the planning and acting phases of my thought process. Falling short of that efficiency will feel limiting.
