Optimizing a blog for SEO isn't a difficult task. Every other CMS can do it just fine, and I don't need to talk to a salesperson to know how much it costs.

Good SEO requires good, relevant content. A CMS can't fix the most time-consuming part of this job.

The issue is that donating money to Mozilla does nothing for Firefox; Personally I use Firefox on everything (home, work, phone); Firefox is the browser for my family too - much the same (Firefox on everything, phones included).

Not everybody agrees with you that Meta should be the arbiter of truth. Or that we need an arbiter at all. I'm perfectly happy with having no labels on my social media.

Yeah, I also wear clothes (kids go into garments/fashion), drink coffee (kids start coffee shops), and buy many other items besides. By this logic every market is a lucrative one, if people buy stuff from it. So, just go and build computers, companies make money selling them. Start the new Apple or Dell.

It's almost as if this missed the point of TFA entirely, and as if "things are sold in that field and there are some player making lots of money in it" is useless by itself for evaluating a field/niche regarding to its money making opportunities.

Thanks, so when you use it on the Macbook, do you use a second screen for it also?

I often use my iPad as a secondary screen to show the TST window when using my Macbook... but find it hard to use with only the Macbook screen.

So curious how you'd do that / set it up when only using the Macbook screen.
I got about 40% of the way down (to `.../functional_component/filter/ReplyFilter.scala`) and it's mostly variable renames, slight shuffling of old code, and the occasional new file of uncommented Scala creating a new XYZBuilder class for something else they want to track(?).

Couldn't see anything even vaguely interesting unless you were looking for examples of Java-style FactoryBuilderFactoryInstanceBuilder madness.
Growth per capita has some headroom worldwide, but in developed economies is progressively harder to find. Getting to a stable state that requires no growth except managing inevitable fluctuations would be best.

We need a game-theoretic model of what such an economy would look like and some levers to arrive at it.

It's also the fact that the recycling systems are still behind consumer expectations.

Many would look at a plastic bag and expect that it could be broken down and reused, or that the glass in a lightbulb could be recovered. If we cared more about reuse than cost, we would. Hopefully sorting machines will continue to improve and be able to sort out bags without getting clogged all the time.

I agree it hasn't "backfired" in any way.
octox aims to provide a user library similar to Rust’s std, but implementing it is somewhat difficult.
Thank you. For my non-technical friends of all ages iPhoto to Photos went through such seismic changes that for most coherence of how and where photos were and weren't was taxing. Not sure on the pricing point though - with the vast majority of iPhone users clicking away, the phone limit is reached quickly and then getting a non-tech head around photos actually are is never ending. But yes, I'm sure things have improved, they would have to.

> Your machine should have all the XCode tooling correctly installed and configured. Works for Android as well.

I mean that's the case for the 'regular' React Native workflow as well, and most mobile / crossplatform development. That said, yeah getting RN running is a bit more effort compared to Expo, but it allows for a bit more flexibility.

We decided against using Expo because we had a number of 3rd party dependencies (trackers, analytics, chat, sigh) that had native components; it can work with Expo, but the dependency has to implement support for it, and that was a bit all over the place.
While on the surface, a 192GB Mac Studio seems like a great deal (it's not much more than a 48GB A6000!), there are several reasons why this might not be a good idea:

* I assume most people have never used llama.cpp Metal w/ large models. It will drop to CPU speeds whenever the context window is full: https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/issues/1730#issuecomm... - while sure this might be fixed in the future, it's been an issue since Metal support was added, and is a significant problem if you are actually trying to actually use it for inferencing. With 192GB of memory, you could probably run larger models w/o quantization, but I've never seen anyone post benchmarks of their experiences. Note that at that point, the limited memory bandwidth will be a big factor.

* If you are planning on using Apple Silicon for ML/training, I'd also be wary. There are multi-year long open bugs in PyTorch[1], and most major LLM libs like deepspeed, bitsandbytes, etc don't have Apple Silicon support[2][3].

You can see similar patterns w/ Stable Diffusion support [4][5] - support lagging by months, lots of problems and poor performance with inference, much less fine tuning. You can apply this to basically any ML application you want (srt, tts, video, etc)

Macs are fine to poke around with, but if you actually plan to do more than run a small LLM and say "neat", especially for a business, recommending a Mac for anyone getting started w/ ML workloads is a bad take. (In general, for anyone getting started, unless you're just burning budget, renting cloud GPU is going to be the best cost/perf, although on-prem/local obviously has other advantages.)

Sorry, I'm asking two questions that each deserve comprehensive answers.
Recycling is when a bottle gets made into another bottle, or a fence post into another fence post. Plastic can't be recycled.
It's so weird there is no mention of react native in github README, they only mention react. Did anything changed and expo is not based on react-native?
I am not sure if this is supposed to be an exception, but looking at the authors other articles, it seems like they are satire or comedy of some sort:

If you're not actively manoeuvring (or fighting etc), sailing involves a lot of downtime. Once you're at sea and heading in roughly the right direction, there's not a lot of actual sailing work to do, and only so much make and mend that people can stomach. A few pints of strong beer would presumably keep the men happily idle. It's basically early modern suspended animation.
I would advise against this kind of "intellectualizing" of emotions, particularly if you are a "brainy" person. Decoding the emotion as an intellectual puzzle can feel comforting, because juggling with concepts and theoretical models is what a brainy person does, but it will necessarily obscure a lot. But an emotion is not a concept, it is physical. You should listen to it, but not in the head: just allow yourself to feel it, to permeate your body, to evoque images... And often an intuitive call to action will emerge. It might just be internal action, or it might be a growing desire to quit your job to go work in another field or do social service or whatever. The thing is that the conviction that comes out of repeteadly listening to the emotions in the body is much stronger than the one that comes from rational thinking alone. And it can often be something you would never have thought about just by pondering.

Take the example of grief. What is the rational interpretation? "My mother was there, and now she is not". Or worse, "it shows how much time I lost when she was alive, and now it is gone". Absolutely useless insight, probably just makes the pain worsen. Maybe it makes you feel guilty and intellectually decide to "engage deeper in my relationships with the living", but in the few cases of this decision I witnessed it did not really work, because this was just abstract and filled with guilt and shame.

But allowing yourself to feel the grief and be sad can open a sense of devotion and respect to the dead. This intense pain can feel like the universe paying respect to the person that is now gone. And out of it can come a new way of interacting with the world and others, and maybe a newfound perspective on life. But the important part is that this kind of happens by itself, as currents and sensations in the body, over time, bottom-up, rather than as the result of solving an intellectual puzzle and coming eith a top down solution a out how you ought to live your life and feel from now on.

Obviously, this is just my own conclusion out of my own journey, and YMMV and all that sort of things.
We're talking specifically about population growth. Infinite economic growth sounds great. Infinite population growth sounds like a paperclip maximizer but with humans.
> Considering that literally hundreds of thousands of qualified people have been laid off this year alone

Those layoffs were to appease shareholders. Did you forget that the market already needed a massive amount of programmer talent? That hasn't changed, my experience hasn't changed. I can get a high paying ($300k) job at literally any point anywhere.

> Also, industrialization saw the rise of the skilled workforce. People started earning more the more they could use their brain.

Not neccessarily. The whole Luddite revolution/movement was trying to fight industrialization _because_ it required less skills, and reduced workers' wages. For example, before the automatic looms were introduced, cloth was produced by hand, by people of significant dexterity and skill. After automation, it was mainly produced by machines which needed only very basic (and low paid) human input here and there.

I used to be a hardcore caffeine aficionado. I learned that if I took it after lunch, my sleep would be impacted, not noticeably on one day but the effect stacks since it's a daily habit and that long term rejuvenation is worse. Eventually my father listened to some podcast and became opinionated about artificial caffeine and didn't want me to drink energy drinks.

I am pretty sure that Javascript programmers would love to have a better stdlib.

Funny how you are getting downvoted, people really misunderstand WHAT economic growth is...

I like the coca cola aluminium can example - if coca cola can reduce the aluminium used in it's cans, that means less natural resources used. But it also means more profit for them, as a better design means less material but they can sell it for the same amount.

This actually translates into better productivity and economic growth. Multiply this by a million, and you get economic growth from a more efficient economy.

Economic growth != more natural resources used. It means more wealth for humans, which is a complex thing. it can both mean more natural resources used, or it can mean more efficient usage of existing materials.

Moderating optimism is overrated. Most people should make an effort to be more optimistic, due to our biological negativity bias. That will serve them better.
I am not sure if science as we understand it had so much to do with it.

To my experience, society changed enough to no longer tolerate--or at least accept as normal- drunken family members. There was a point where the always-drunken-grandfather was suddenly considered ill and no longer just a little weird. A noticed this in my own family when I was still young. There was a point where constant-drunkenness was suddenly frowned upon with a certain vigor. And the younger generation sort of got the message: "I dont want to be like grandpa, he is actually a poor devil..."

I don’t think we are because the sun is still chucking out a shitload of low entropy energy, most of which we don’t use. So the curve steepness will depend on if we can figure out how to harness it. And we are working on brain augmentation already (AI).
Or even the different scales of your own waste. Whenever I'm worrying about which bin to put my coffee stirrer in, I sometimes think about the shear volume of landfill that got hauled from our house when we did a major renovation. I'm sure 10 lifetimes of coffee stirrers wouldn't come close.

I think worrying about things like single-use shopping bags and compostable straws is great from a "keep pollution out of the environment" perspective, but I doubt they make a huge difference from a landfill usage perspective.
The best way to answer these questions, I think, is to just try them out. For instance, Haskell has a very advanced type system that you won't get from Typescript, and it might change the way you approach your work in other languages.
On the surface, yeah, but a bit deeper it allows a more web-style development flow; you as a developer only deal with the Javascript part, nothing about the native part. Expo is a runtime, whereas React Native / Metro is a full mobile app stack.

Likewise, with Expo it's easier to do code push, that is, just release a new JS bundle for over-the-air updates without going through the app store. Again, this is possible in RN as well, but it's a bit more involved.

Finally, Expo allows for easier (internal) demos; anyone with the Expo app installed can scan a QR code during your internal demo to install the app over the air, again without having to go through app stores. This can score you points depending on where you work.

Personally I'm still convinced 'real' native apps are better, but few companies want to invest in development & developers for that. My experience with React Native (not Expo) has been positive so far though, with very little issues between iOS and Android - actually, for me personally it's mainly been figuring out how to install custom fonts (custom fonts and Font Awesome for icons). I hope to not have to touch that again, lol.

Writing for money and reservation of copyright are, at bottom, the ruin of literature. No one writes anything that is worth writing, unless he writes entirely for the sake of his subject. What an inestimable boon it would be, if in every branch of literature there were only a few books, but those excellent! This can never happen, as long as money is to be made by writing. It seems as though the money lay under a curse; for every author degenerates as soon as he begins to put pen to paper in any way for the sake of gain. The best works of the greatest men all come from the time when they had to write for nothing or for very little. And here, too, that Spanish proverb holds good, which declares that honor and money are not to be found in the same purse—honora y provecho no caben en un saco. The reason why Literature is in such a bad plight nowadays is simply and solely that people write books to make money. A man who is in want sits down and writes a book, and the public is stupid enough to buy it. The secondary effect of this is the ruin of language.

I'm sure you'll get pissed at this, but assuming hiring managers see your blog and Gitea instance, here are some of my guesses as to why they don't want to hire you:

* You call BLM a "terrorist organization".

* You explicitly object to the idea that the phenomenon of police killings of black people is rooted in white supremacy.

* You give off serious antivaxxer vibes, and refuse to wear a mask during a global pandemic.

* You're petty enough about the above to post a list of businesses you won't patronize because they require masking.

* You are boycotting Rust because they don't want people bringing guns to their conferences.

* You complain about being banned from lobste.rs for posting transphobic comments. (And yes, despite your protestations, they are indeed transphobic.) And also for claiming that gender dysphoria is essentially a mental illness to be cured.

You clearly think these are all reasonable positions to hold, but the fact of the matter is that these sorts of things will be considered red flags by many recruiters and hiring managers at many tech companies. You may believe that these things should have no bearing on whether or not you get a job, but what matters is the reality, not what you believe.

On the technical side:

* You don't want to work in any language but C.

* You claim that you can't read/understand code written by others, citing a dubious "theory of mind" excuse.

Most tech companies don't use C these days. Certainly there are some, but most that write internet-facing programs don't use it. Even a company that does have C positions might be concerned about your unwillingness to write anything else. And reading, understanding, maintaining, and adding features to other people's code is a huge part of nearly any software development job.

I have no doubt that some of your technical achievements are impressive, but companies consider much more than that when making hiring decisions.

All this is just from a few minutes perusing your website.

> I live in a place where people generally share the same values, so those other posts shouldn't be a problem.

I'm assuming you live in Utah based on some of the things I read on your website; I don't expect there are a ton of tech-company employers there. And of those that are there, I suspect many people who work at them don't share as many of your values as you think they do.
Thanks. I wasn't aware that eas build works locally as well (since they deprecated expo build).

It does an immediate shutdown, this may result in data-loss.

> If --force is specified twice, the operation is immediately executed without terminating any processes or unmounting any file systems. This may result in data loss. Note that when --force is specified twice the halt operation is executed by systemctl itself, and the system manager is not contacted. This means the command should succeed even when the system manager has crashed.
Why would we be in a sigmoid? What makes you think that?
It's RN with less (or I guess different) steps, actually; you can skip the bit where you have to manage and build the native parts of your apps, even though with RN that's already minimal, manageable and works out of the box. generally.
