I once saw a professor show me their latest taped out CPU (multi project wafer of course) and it had one tiny core that is supposed to control the wake-up of the larger processor. The sleep controller has no memory and is a thin slice that is barely visible. Meanwhile the primary processor is much larger but it too is completely dwarfed by the memory it is being surrounded by.
The idea of throwing out parts of the ALU is ridiculous. The only situation where this would make sense is in some kind of processing in memory situation where your logic process does not permit large CPUs and you expect to have hundreds of cores per chip with multiple chips on a single DIMM.
you either can remember all your passwords and then you are fucked or you use a pass manager

passkeys will be stored in a pass manager and they can be recovered with device pin and master pass, I think they will be exportable too

so yes, you can log in with brain stored stuff

I guess you need a device to log in? then you log in to your pass manager and you can log in to anywhere

only this way you have to remember a passcode and a master pass, not 1000 passwords and you need your master pass 5x/10 years and your passcode every other day and you log in with your device and your biometrics

passkeys have issues but what you are saying is pure shit

> They sell a lot.

They sell a lot because they will force people to buy whenever possible. Most people buy it to be left alone.

> Police leaves these guys alone because there is no real crime. Scamming tourists is hard to persecute. Not worth it!

Often there is crime: forcing people to buy it's petty crime but most will not complain unless there is violence. It's nearly impossible to jail them with the actual political zeitgeist, making it a waste of time and money. This impunity leaves room for retaliation also.

During my PhD (not in CS) I met a CS PhD who was working on parallel algorithms. At the time I was struggling with large-scale simulations and HPC stuff so I got very interested. I asked him what programming languages he used.

"Oh I don't know how to code. We don't write programs in CS Theory."
Hah, I wasn't aware! I think that must have been fixed after I tried it the first time because I definitely concluded that it was necessary back then. And thank you for the kind words!

False dichotomy. Yes, every person's form will be a little different. Even every individual lift.l will be different because we exist in analog meatspace.

But, while there isn't just one right way, that doesn't mean there isn't a wrong way. Do it the wrong way, and you do hurt yourself.
Well, I'm not sure.

If we put it into context of a city where the police care about traffic infractions, and you have some guy wearing a ski mask that runs up and throws a large opaque object onto the hood of a moving vehicle, I am confident that any cop worth his salt could think up a plausible reason to write a ticket for that ski-mask guy.

I think it would be a minor infraction of some kind, of course: jaywalking, or mischief, or interfering with moving traffic.

I think that if a cop was determined to ticket the guy, that it wouldn't matter whether the vehicle is driverless or not, it'd still be (in a cop's mind) a ticketable offense.

But of course this is transpiring in San Francisco, where the cops don't care if you're mugged and beaten, or your drugstore is smash-and-grabbed, unless you happen to be Nancy Pelosi's husband.

> This is the central fallacy of developer culture: that complexity is a sign of intelligence and that complex systems are superior

There are two main competing fallacies in developer culture: the first one is that complexity is a good thing, the second one is that complexity can be avoided.

They are both equally wrong, complexity is a curse, but that's the curse of the real world and if you try to hide that under a rug and call that “simplicity”, then everybody is gonna have a bad time. This blog post is a good dicussion on that topic:

> Same thing in Houston, which is essentially a zoning-free city.

While there may not be 'traditional' zoning, there seem to be a bunch of regulations:

> There are a number of reasons this line of questioning is a mistake, but the most fundamental one is that people misunderstand what “no zoning” means in the Houston context. If land use in Houston were genuinely unregulated, then this Nancy Sarnoff article[1] about possible revisions to Houston land use rules would make no sense. In fact, the city features extensive regulation of minimum lot size and maximum parking requirements just like every other major American city.

> This buffering ordinance is the latest edition in the city’s history of enacting land-use regulations without using the word “zoning.” Urban planners and scholars have long debated whether Houston has zoning codes that are clad in terms like “buffering.” The reality is that Houston has created a host of regulations that govern what can be built where.

> Are you claiming programming or software systems cannot be a subject of scientific process?

I'm saying it's extremely difficult and expensive to answer most of the questions that you want to know through scientific experiment. Usually the best you can do is experience.

That's not a bold thing to say. There are plenty of areas that are really hard to study through experiments, but we can still learn things through experience. The whole field of psychology is just on the edge of being amenable to experiment, but it's not like we know nothing about human psychology.

Management is another field where it's more or less impossible to do scientific experiments to determine what makes the best manager, but again that doesn't mean we know nothing about management.

Very occasionally there are great scientific studies of software - e.g. that paper where they found that Typescript/Flow prevent ~15% of bugs in Javascript software. But most are along the lines of "we took some undergrads, gave them a tiny task, and measured how long it took them" which has no correlation with best practices for professional long-term projects - maybe even negative correlation. For example I suspect it would tell you that adding any comments to code is a bad idea!

First computer I ever used -- working for the Civil Service (UK government admin job), it sat lonely in the corner of the room. I read the documentation and discovered that it had what was called a "spreadsheet", wild, that was one of my jobs, to tabulate and add-up metrics from various sections on a big bit of paper. I typed in all of the numbers and it all worked, so I printed the results and handed to my boss. She was not impressed so made me add up all of the numbers by hand "the usual way" to check that the machine actually worked.
It's saddening that they haven't fixed this yet. An email service that doesn't send emails properly, what is the point?

I've had this bug hit me at times that matter. What if my recipient ignored my empty mail instead of notifying me?
If we step back and look at this as a problem of abstraction. An advantage of abstraction is that the people working at the higher levels of the abstraction don't need to know what is happening at the lower levels. Therefore people can specialise and we can achieve better efficiency as an industry. If everyone needed to understand everything we'd be screwed.

In reality there are abstraction that work very well. You don't need to understand the internals of python to use it for example, though you may be able to use it better if you do. C however I would argue that you do need to have a mental image of what is happening to use it.

Also the operating system. People use that all the time without knowing how it works.

Maybe we are just at that early in web dev and we are waiting for the Unix of web frameworks to arise. Or perhaps there is an inherent tension between the developer needing to fiddle with the details while the framework tries to abstract those details away.
I read this all the time, ist it true?

isnt public key a bad wording suggesting it should or can be public?

I would call it verification key and keep it secret on the server

only thing it need not to be hashed, it is already "hashed" meaning if it leaks it has 128 bit security or so

if I get it well, the private key can be guessed from the public key from huge alien resources so it is actualyl like an already computer intensive hashed 128 random password from a 2^128 domain?

I do not think the public key is to be posted on twitter or should not be guarded at all... it is just not the signing key and it is 128 bit strong away from it

> Semver is the tool, not the cause.

> If product maintainers do not care about stable versions, it makes no difference if they comply with semver or not.

Exactly. Here, the maintainer reserves the freedom to break anything at any moment, and correctly uses semver to signal that through version number.

(Not) using semver as a versioning scheme is orthogonal to whether an API is stable.

As a potential user of said package, seeing this (among other things), I choose to use another package (Django REST Framework) whose maintainers do care about not beeaking the API.
They are still trying to formalize the industry afaik.

* As others were saying “no-code” implies non-tech. I’d focus on “continuous” or “api performance testing on autopilot”.

* Marketing websites need to be mobile first. Your first impression will be on a phone even if the product isn’t usable there. The demo should be a one click on an example domain and you might even fake the formatting.

* Put the case study logos on the home page for social proof

* A much simpler and more useful solution to API testing is to scrape or record latency data from prod. With that data I don’t have to worry about authentication or making sure the automated tests are hitting a realistic account setup. Those are the hardest parts of doing synthetic performance testing and you expect the customer to do those for you.
I think tech debt can be a useful analogy in software development. We use the term every now and then to point out pieces of code that we want to rewrite.

However, we should not stretch the analogy. I think the author goes way too far. Talking about interest rates, debt ceilings, and ratios doesn’t make sense.

Besides, I'll comment on some of the financial claims:

Debt doesn’t necessarily need to be payed back. I guess most debt is never payed back because there’s are useful projects behind it. If some software is generating millions of profit, should we then pay back all its debt? Maybe it sufficient to just maintain the software a bit a go home early.

Calling a family stupid because they take a loan to go to Disneyland is a very narrow view. Maybe the utility is much higher than the said interest because the family needs a couple of days together (for whatever reasons the economics professor likes to ignore).
This is a real question, not a retort.

But I have known addicts, they don’t exactly take care of their things. It’s very easy to imagine that much of the state supplied housing would quickly become unsafe and or destroyed.

You seem a little confused by my initial comment. What you seem to be saying, here, is that pell.js isn't a good rich text editor. What I said was that pell can be used to write a good rich text editor. If I were building a rich text editor, why would I want my input mechanism to build my tree or replicatable data bindings for me? And it's not like pell stands in the way of those things. It's a glorified text type input.

I'm just going to chalk this one up to a misunderstanding and hope you have a good day!
I disagree, “req/res body cookies that’s it” is not the underlying system. It’s an abstraction over the TCP/IP and HTTP stack.

Given the narrative and the place (HN) you’re saying, I’m betting you don’t use Google for storing your data either, but the vast majority of the world does.

On a positive note, despite there being plenty of competition there are people who care less about price than they do about reliability and quality of work. These same people also tend to know other people who are like minded and will be eager to recommend you. Knowing a good trades-person is a sort of currency in such circles.

If I started again these are the people I would target and the ones who only worried about price I would not bother with.

I see a little bit of discussion on here about business ideas, and questions like “why don’t people pay for paid apps?” - I think the business model canvas is a simple tool that helps you to visualise your business model, and understand where and how you can add value to your business.

I would say, if you’re struggling to describe your key value proposition, you probably don’t have one.

pass manager is needed and that is one of the key differences

it is good but also a challenge for some people, especially if the 3 bigs cannot sync because normal people without pass manager begin to use Apple, Google, Microsoft pass management... if they have all 3 devices, all of them...

what I do not understand, what the heck is the goal, one passkey per service and total sync or a domain (server) has to create and manage 4 passkeys for 4 operating system providers if user does not use a total syncing pass manager?

that is the problem since those who use pass managers are normally ok but those who dont, and wont register/trust/pay for one, begin to use A/G/M/L pass managers and 4 pass manager accounts must be secured?

and then you begin creating 4 passkeys for each website?

My impression was that, when botnet sinkholing was first practiced, a lot of care was taken over avoiding collateral damage, but if so, then the standards seem to have decayed.

It was also written about complex cultural issues in ethnic minorities by people who weren't from those minorities. I am a big fan of Morris, but there is something inauthentic (edit: I originally wrote "slightly patronising" but I think the film was made in very good faith) about that.
