I’ve been going to DV for over 25 years at this point. Mostly backroads exploration. The moral of most of these tragedies is know what you are doing.

Even as late as the last couple of winters, idiots follow GPS guidance (Waze, google/Apple Maps) onto closed roads. Again, know your environment. If a major highway is closed, likely the minor side roads are as well.

Unfortunately, this still leaves the software side. I've had computers freeze or crash on me when plugging / unplugging an external monitor, and even one recent case of the EMI generated by the gas piston in my office chair regularly causing my work laptop to bluescreen when there was an external monitor plugged in (with HDMI cable acting as an antenna). This tells me that it's quite possible thar shooting a monitor would cause the computer to freeze or reboot itself.

There is a separate chip for just this, but yes.
I think Windows 7 did actually use ressources better than Vista. I remember two things:
1. Vista removed all hw acceleration from GDI, Windows 7 brought some back
2. Windows Search really slowed down Vista computers, but in Windows 7 they tuned it so that it used less ressources or had lower priority for IO.

For me that made a huge difference, with Vista I had to always stop the search service

Optimizing for new users over experienced users in productivity UX design is a big pet peeve for me.

You're building software for people to use 5 days a week for their job, make it as easy to use as possible assuming they've spent some time learning how to use it. Don't sacrifice that to optimize for the tiny fraction of time where they're beginners.

I'm running a few projects from my home on a 10 year old dual core laptop with 16gb of ram. I run docker swarm with nginx for static stuff, 2 nodejs/react apps, a python app, a few sheduled jobs, a mongodb and a postgres db, victoriametrics + grafana for monitoring, portainer for docker management and a few other things. In total 18 running containers I use cloudflare tunel to expose them to the internet. here's an uptime:
07:26:00 up 89 days, 15:50, 3 users, load average: 1.03, 1.15, 1.21
Sure, the apps don't do heavy computation, just normal stuff but i found it enough. Even faster than some aws containers that I use at work.

While some decent examples have been provided in another response, it is kind of telling when most Libre/open multiplayer FPS titles are still built on Quake 3 engine. And they are not exactly to most vibrant communities. But it will run on almost anything form the last 20 years I guess.

I think a part of it is that the video game industry is good at absorbing a lot of people with talent. Game folks are at the intersection of arts and technology but it also isn't firmly in either camp, so people can be poached away fairly easily from open projects if they have a lot of talent.

I disagree. But I am someone who deals with frontend tech sporadically as opposed to spending all/most of my time working on UI.

I was excited about svelte, but have found that coming back to my svelte project after a month or two of not using it was arduous because of all the myriad language level things. There are just too many little svelte specific things to keep track of in head.

In contrast coming back to a react/vue project is much easier for me, because even if I forget something at the end of the day any vue-directive or react hook is just another js/ts api I can easily lookup.

In particular, I find the DX that volar+vscode offer in a project with vue3, composition API & pug templates to be better than anything else I have seen in the FE ecosystem in last 5 years.

I also don't find the enhancements for local reactivity to be major value additions because most of the times my state resides in a shared store. I find the vue reactivity model to be simpler to deal with because I can create shared stores which can be (deep) mutated from any component and it all just works seamlessly.
Thieves might need a fence to sell a locked Macbook for parts, but there's no way a thief would sell an unlocked, working Macbook to someone for 200€. It's trivial to sell working Macbooks on local classified websites. You don't need a fence to sell an unlocked Macbook.

In my experience, if you sell it for a good price (10-20% below average) it's going to be sold within days. So the reward would be 800€ for unlocked Macbook vs maybe 100€ for a locked Macbook if you are lucky selling it for parts to a repair shop that doesn't ask questions.

And that's assuming you have a base model: Models with extra RAM and SSD go for higher prices, but if you sell it for parts those upgrades are worthless.

That homicide rates for hunter gatherers are much higher than for people in agrarian and industrial societies is firmly established by the evidence, which is spread out across thousands of years of pre-history and a diverse array of geographical locations.

As someone who often runs multiple entire virtualized datacenters on top of ESXi hosts which are actually virtual machines themselves running in ESXi, I highly disagree.

Nested virtualization is a game changer in any kind of lab scenario. It also runs great on Chromebooks. The ChromeOS Linux environment is actually a KVM, so launching virtual machines from there is nested but you would never know it (based on my experience with the (framework Chromebook edition). Having 64GB of memory doesn't hurt either of course.

And the funny thing is that this process never ends. Every couple of months the UI must be redesigned. They can never settle on one idea.
The approach of having options to optimize hot code paths with zero cost abstractions while still not having to worry about memory management in the vast majority of the rest of your code sounds like the best of both worlds to me (given that we only trade performance, not safety for convenience).
Me too, the articles are great and I'm excited about the future of Vale.

> I don't think this take makes any sense. Sure, you can spec out an insanely expensive Mac today. That's always been the case.

Yes, of course - but historically Apple's MacPros (and G3, G4, and G5 PowerMacs before that) had a fairly reasonable entry-prices - but in recent years (especially since 2013) the entry-price of Apple's workstation-tier machines has risen sharply over inflation:

In 2005, Apple advertised[1] the PowerMac G5 for sale at $1999 - adjusted for inflation that's $3100 today, but today's equivalent: the MacPro, sells at an eyewatering $6,999[2]. While in 2013, that $1999 adjusted-for-inflation would be $2400 but the 2013 "trashcan" MacPro started at $3000. Today that would be $3900 - which itself is roughly half the current $6999.

As with the Vision Pro, Apple's pricing is intended to limit demand which accomodates Apple's low-volume, US-domestic manufacturing of the Mac Pro (and everyone else can just get an iMac Pro or Mac Studio) - but this risks making Apple's workstation-class machines so inaccessible they never develop an audience, and the companies that write software for workstation-scenarios (oil-and-gas? AutoDesk? etc) will likely avoid the hassle of porting Win32 or *nix number-crunching software to Apple's hardware. Overall, it feels like Apple is trying to contrive and stage-manage their own workstation swansong - it will be beautiful, but is it wise?

I believe so. Even Euan Montague's hyped up original didn't say it was spectacular, but there's some evidence it at least delayed German reaction.

To be specific: In full screen mode it turns off the screen after a while and so far I could not find any setting that disables this behavior.

Sure, I give you that, technology did progress for what Vista was quite of a jump in requirements for little extra function at the time. And yes, 7 was a small revision.

But still... assuming a decent non-launchdate machine (1GB RAM, Geforce 6200), Windows 7 was more performant overall on the same hardware, and this was never 'fixed' on Vista's codebase over time. You can pretty much notice the small but important optimizations in the search service (faster, less lag), resizing explorer windows (less redraws), less scheduled services running, user account control alerts weren't as obtrusive. Sure, you wouldn't get extra fps on your favorite game, but those quality of life improvements really did show on daily usage.

> I have made 3 changes here, which might or might not work with COBOL (I am Cobol ignorant ;) ).

I've never used COBOL before, but this thread and your post made me curious and I installed GNU Cobol and found a sample program that demonstrates a few language features.

After playing around with it a little, I think I've understood that "OF" is like a struct element (or object property) accessor, the parens are an array index, and the hyphen is a syntactically significant part of the identifier. "BY" is apparently a mandatory part of the multiplication operator.

Conclusion: each of your three changes (while, as you said, perfectly reasonable from the English language point of view) would indeed break the COBOL code!

By the way, I remember this being a bit of an issue when I tried programming in HyperTalk: on occasion I would unintentionally come up with an English synonym for some natural-language HyperTalk code, and it wouldn't be valid HyperTalk.

For me, being able to do hard things is not something I learned as a kid. It’s a sum of:

- ADHD symptoms being mild,

- Having slept well (ties in with former point), and

- Having no imminent major worries at the moment (family/health/financial).

Any of these can make the difference between casually trying to understand quantum mechanics, and crawling under the table because I just can’t make this one rectangle on the screen do what I want.

> It was an architectural mistake to start bypassing GLX and depending on DRI at each app,

1. Well I assert that it was not an architectural mistake. So that doesn't really move the conversation.
2. Whether or not it was a mistake, does not change how things are. So you can't really use that as a point against Wayland for X.

> and Wayland wants to cement that. That’s why we see so many webapps where we would have expected remote windows driven by a backend server; Javascript became the GPU-local end of a lot of opaque rendering protocols to fill the gap.

Client side has been driven overwhelmingly by Windows in the past decades though, so I don't see how that is the reason. The number of javascript apps caused by DRI in X must be approximately zero, and caused by Wayland exactly zero.

> I do not like ads, I never have, but they're an inevitability.

Drinking water is inevitable. 99% percent of the web being monetized by ads is not.

"Ads are inevitable" has become a mantra repeated by every ad-tech executive to keep them relevant.

> What bothers me is the author of this video seems to think the internet can exist without ads. In it's current form it cannot.

The current form of internet is an intelligence insulting, attention-seeking, malicious, privacy-invading monster exactly because it has been using ads as its primary monetization vehicle for the last two decades. Losing it would actually be a good thing for humanity.

> The ONLY ALTERNATIVE is a paid solution.

This is quite a good solution. Yes, it would instantly kill 99% of 'content creation', vast majority of which is low quality, but this is exactly what is making current form of internet horrible in the first place (paired with ad monetization).

The 1% remaining content creation is what would pass a bar of 'worth paying for'. This immediately creates the right incentive structure for all parties involved, including for the author of this video. They will be given a choice - do they go 'pro' and try to make their content great and worth paying for or do they look for a new job? Seems like they are already half-way there, and with a bit more effort they could be making a living from a paid model.
