Oof. I'm a suckered for the cyberpunk aesthetic. However, these examples need some work. They're alright but the fonts, the font weights, spacing, layouts, everything feels like it could be tidied up a little.

In undergrad, I spent countless hours with a mortar and pestle, sintering, and annealing to research a particular superconductor, never getting much sleep because I had to wake up every couple hours to make sure nothing had gone awry...

All frameworks (or libraries like react if someone wants to be specific) are horrendous, was on the same boat as you with jquery/bootstrap pretty much do the job for any UI I needed until I tried the “modern” ones.. but probably svelte or solid+astro would be your best or at least personally being the least cumbersome. That being said, I try now in all my new projects to minimize or eliminate js completely, currently I’m trying to use rust to build the UI for a project I’m doing since the backend and the embedded drivers are also built with Rust, and I’m using egui [1] and so far I love it, Iced is also a good option.

> I don't understand a lot of the hate for Brave. If you don't like the crypto integration, the ads, etc you can just disable them. I feel the original intent, to be able to contribute directly back to page authors, was a noble one. It may not have played out as intended, but it wasn't a scam.

The presence of ads and/or crypto is a strong signal that you're working with an untrustworthy entity, whose objectives will not be aligned with your own.

Maybe Brave the browser isn't outright a "scam," but the willingness of the company to dip into scam-enabling technologies like crypto makes the brand toxic, and anything by the company is immediately suspect.

The same is true for Signal, for what it's worth, as it still supports Moxie's pet shitcoin.

It's easy enough to opt out of Brave because Firefox exists, but there's still sadly no better alternative to Signal.

Even in the modern era the cost is still relevant. Bricks are still pretty expensive.

> the true meaning of "I got 99 problems but a bitch aint one"

For those unaware, a verse from Jay Z's "99 Problems":

The year's '94 and my trunk is raw

In my rearview mirror is the motherfucking law

I got two choices y'all, pull over the car or

Bounce on the devil, put the pedal to the floor

Now I ain't trying to see no highway chase with Jake

Plus I got a few dollars I can fight the case

So I, pull over to the side of the road

I heard, "Son, do you know why I'm stopping you for?"

"Cause I'm young and I'm black and my hat's real low"

Do I look like a mind reader, sir? I don't know

Am I under arrest or should I guess some more?

"Well you was doing fifty-five in a fifty-four" (uh huh)

"License and registration and step out of the car"

"Are you carrying a weapon on you, I know a lot of you are"

I ain't stepping out of shit, all my papers legit

"Well do you mind if I look around the car a little bit?"

Well my glove compartment is locked, so is the trunk in the
back

And I know my rights so you goin' need a warrant for that

"Aren't you sharp as a tack? You some type of lawyer or
something?"

"Somebody important or something?"

Well, I ain't passed the bar, but I know a little bit

The problems that were unique to Kia cars were predominantly in the engine and transmission, so it's not exactly a big surprise that removing those two parts means they make better cars.
Superconductors aren't always superconducting. There is a set of circumstances in which superconduction happens. If the current is below this limit, voltage is 0. If current is above this limit, then voltage is more accurately predicted from bulk resistivity numbers. This image is on it's side from a normal I-V curve, but accurately describes the relationship: https://i.stack.imgur.com/5Irds.jpg. At Ic the material stops superconducting.

Note that there are temperature and magnetic field effects on the value of Ic, which in every other currently-known material is 0 at 300 K.

> When you can open up a video and within 30 seconds, they’re calling for the eradication of the Jews, with hundreds of thousands of views, it really begs the question of what the hell these people are saying that it’s actually being removed. Cause straight up calling for genocide is not just allowed to thrive on Facebook and google, it is actively pushed on to recommended no matter how much you try to block it.

> I watch PBS space time, various software engineering talks, and chess. That’s it. Why is YouTube recommending conspiracy theorist alt-right shit?

I call bullshit.

There's plenty of racist crap on the internet, but "within 30 seconds, they’re calling for the eradication of the Jews, with hundreds of thousands of views" is just not believable, unless you're _deliberately_ going into some very dark corners. Facebook isn't suggesting this to the broad audience because it would get immediately flagged -- in some countries, such a video is illegal.

YouTube's algorithms can get twisted up and make recommendations based upon associations we don't see, but "I watch PBS space time, various software engineering talks, and chess. That’s it. Why is YouTube recommending conspiracy theorist alt-right shit?" is just not believable, unless someone in your house is deliberately searching for it, or you think anything non-Marxist is alt-right.

Most of yall have no clue what actual suffering is, which is what you're trying to say justifies lack of self control.

Just control yourself, or never expect anyone to control themselves in any fashion and accept when someone like me decides they've had enough of the bs and loses control in other ways, right?

Yeah with these frameworks, you usually need to pair it with a backend that talks to your database. Most of the code you write in these frameworks run on the client (but they employ some server rendering techniques for performance reasons, but generally you treat it like client code)

Astro is another one that is server-first, similar to PHP, so maybe you'll like that. It also has integrations with the popular frontend frameworks.

And if you don't like any of that, htmx is great!

Based on over 15 years of experience as a product designer, having worked with Fortune 50 companies and having contributed to numerous successful products, I have reservations about the efficacy of design thinking. Just as there are both proficient and underperforming programmers, the same distinction exists among designers. Is it challenging to discern the difference? Absolutely. However, a process is just that — a process. What truly counts at the end of the day is the final product and the quality of communication throughout its development.

What we learned from the previous administration is that you just need to fight it until the power switches hands meanwhile fighting it in court. Zuck makes some donations to the opposition party candidates and their PAC's, and hope they win.

Or he subverts the controlling party the way Russia would do it, and hire some firm (possibly Israeli) to do a deep background check in the ruling party and use it to blackmail them.

Also it's not a good look when one of the controlling party members chose to ignore a subpoena issues by the same body they control now.

Some other things to keep in mind regarding any phones in your group if you end up stranded:

If you're in an emergency and your phone says you have no signal, call 911 anyway. It'll attempt to reach any network in range that the phone is compatible with, not just the network you're subscribed to. Some phones nowadays will show "Emergency calls only" when this is the case, but it doesn't appear to be 100% consistent, so again, call anyway.

Also turn on battery saver and when you're not actively trying to call, keep the phone in airplane mode. If you don't it'll repeatedly try to reach a tower which will drain your battery quickly. Don't power it off unless you don't plan to use it for the rest of the day, because booting up uses a lot of energy.
Ah, yes, that makes sense! I'm thinking about framework from the wrong angle.

Iptables (aka linux's netfilter) processes DHCP packets like any other packets.

The ISC DHCP server though listens for raw packets and thus completely by-pass the netfilter rules.

This is similar to how you can use wireshark to see raw packets received on the physical port, before any filtering.

Any Linux process running with CAP_NET_RAW can by-pass the firewall in such a way, this includes your typical DHCP server running as root.

The question then should be why is ISC DHCP server using raw sockets? That is probably because DHCP sits in-between OSI layers, it bridges the gap between the mac address world and IP address world.

I'm not sure of the exact technical reason though. The linked SO answers talk about some case where NAT rules could be altering packets, not sure how common NAT+DHCP is used...

In the case of a DHCP client, you do need raw sockets because the Linux IP layer will not let a normal socket send packets with a NULL IP source address.
I think this person is against the cottage industry that's popped up around the idea itself?

The core concept of "design thinking" isn't that wild — figure out what ails people, and design / build stuff that people need/want that makes their lives better. Then there's a bunch of tactics to go into how to do that.

I don't really understand the hype around it- seems like consultants and institutions have taken it on as the next big thing to squeeze a buck from it, but the core concepts and tactics are really useful for those who like building products for real users and use cases.

I agree... My thinking is that if you're growing beyond a single process accessing the database, either put a service on top of the SQLite db, or move to a db more suited to the needs/workflow.

Nice job.

Effective capacity also drops with load for many batteries, and there can be subtleties. Read all the data sheets and applications manuals from your suppliers.

Even very good firmware engineers can need reminders that everything you do with a battery operated device drains the battery.

Keysight, R&S, and Tektronix/Keithley all have nice battery test devices and battery test simulators. You can rent one if buying one takes your breath away.

Also IoT devices can require you to use very fast ammeters or sourcemeters to correctly measure net current or power. The RMS reading on your multimeter might not even register fast spin-up and spin-down on a BLE device. That's another use case for the Qiotech tool. Again, the big instrument makers make even nicer stuff. Call an FAE.

Hot take: Community policing should be separate from warrant enforcement. A huge part of police's 'fear' is from not knowing who in any interaction is at risk of being incarcerated for 20 years and has an outstanding warrant and might therefor do whatever it takes to avoid that.

Community policing should be about community policing and needs to be de-escalated. Warrant enforcement should be warrant enforcement. This would make police less fearful and less justified in their hostility.

On a highway my hood latch broke (old car) and it flew up at 50 mph and crushed my windshield. I had no service (but knew the other carrier would have full bars) and spent over an hour waving at every car trying to get someone to stop to let me call my parents (I was 18 and not exactly intimidating). It was a crazy experience as I'd obviously had an accident. Nobody would help. Finally I just stood in the road like a crazy person and a nice family stopped and one of their kids was on the carrier I needed. It was far enough from a nearby town to be at least a few hours walk and not before nightfall.

I am trying to think of a good reason to open-carry into a police station apart from "making a point".

You won't be the "good guy with a gun" in an active shooting. You won't be robbed. You won't be attacked.

If you draw your gun at a police station for any reason you will be arrested or killed.

Like, technically in my state I have the right to open-carry a rifle past a school while wearing a ski-mask as long as I'm off-property. Completely legal.

If I did that while picking my child up from school to "assert my rights" surely you'd think I was being insane, confrontational and threatening because I could have no legitimate interest in doing so.

It seems very odd to not just leave your gun in the car. Perhaps you're a principled pedestrian or cyclist? That I could see.
It's rather politically charged, but my favorite thing to recommend on YouTube in general is Innuendo Studios, particularly the "Alt-Right playbook" series.
