These are serious, proportionate fines that meaningfully affect the bottom line. These companies are demonstrably making big changes in order to comply. They have been testing out the boundaries and seeing how close to the wind they can sail, but I think that's coming to an end now that they're seeing the impact of the new approach to enforcement.

The clearest sign for me was Meta's decision to delay the launch of Threads in the EU. Even for a company with the financial might of Meta, two billion euros in fines in the past two years has put the brakes on the "move fast and break stuff" mentality. Of course that creates the possibility of a two-tier internet where EU customers simply don't get access to products that are inherently intrusive, but I think that's a feature rather than a bug - either respect the privacy of our citizens, or take your seedy surveillance business elsewhere.

| Webauthn with fido/u2f is supported on most websites and oidc providers.

I wish that was true. I’ve found that webauthn is becoming more common in the last year, but is still relatively rare. Many “important” sites and services make use of them. https://www.yubico.com/works-with-yubikey/catalog/ is a great place to see them, but they’re still quite rare as a whole.
If I understand correctly, it wouldn't be so bad if greed were kept in check by honesty.
seems dumb. there's nothing stopping a child from lying about their age anyways. how about parents who care about such things just block the TikTok app for their children?

if TikTok simply had an age selection box, and if you choose anything under 18 it said "too bad. wait until you're 18", I'm sure all of those children would say, "gee darn it, guess I'll wait" :eyeroll.

This sort of nonsense is why government's are trying to enforce age verification because god forbid your children go on a website or app.

at the end of the day these fines exist because it's easy money for the EU - there's really no way of stopping children from using TikTok, or any social media for that matter but the EU knows that so they fine the companies and keep the gravy train going.
Yeah I figured as much
Some comments:

1. The page on server side rendering leads to a 404 https://nuejs.org/docs/nuejs/server-side-components.html

2. I hate JS projects that have a separate compile step-- preferring to just use the libraries directly (as a script import). Julia Evans also wrote about this some time ago. Im not sure if your library will work without a compile step? Can I just download a .js file and try it out without jumping thru npm install/build hoops?
That's amazing, how did I miss this. What a classic example of Google's inability to see anything through (at least in consumer facing paid products!).
Frameworks are winner takes it all in nature. I think react is kind of won the market at this point [1]. New frameworks have to wait for a disruption in the model of delivery. React, angular were insight because of SPA. When a new paradigm happens then a new framework will make sense I think.

Do you think Groth16 counts? So named because it was written by Groth in 2016. Groth16 introduces the first really practical zero knowledge proving scheme. I'm pretty sure it's used by zcash as well as Filecoin, and projects like Tornado cash. It opened the floodgates on verifiable computation techniques that are used for everything from scaling to privacy.

Every year there's a ton of braindead noise, obviously, but every year there are also fundamental breakthroughs that change how we compute.

Actually, specifically because of Groth16, the "world computer" concept is becoming more and more possible every day. When you have verifiable computing, you shift the paradigm from every node on the network having to verify every state transition to any given state transition only needing to be verified by one machine somewhere in the world, once (which can be done in parallel with the proving of every other state transition). This means something like a blockchain network is now only limited in scale by how much compute you can throw at it, and as the algorithms get faster, and the compute gets better, we're seeing multiple orders of magnitude throughput increases every year. Things have been getting pretty wild in the cryptocurrency space for the past couple years, and the future looks insane.

edit: For people interested in diving into WTF "verifiable computing" is, this is a really awesome project that does some cool stuff with it that I'm not affiliated with in any way : https://github.com/risc0/risc0

> It's amazing how quickly they explain away seemingly credible testimony from a real intelligence officer.

Really depends on what your priors are. For almost everyone, the existence of aliens has a much, much lower probability than the probability of someone lying about it or being mistaken about it.

As a sanity check, imagine a person with a similar background testified to congress that elves are real and have been kidnapping children and replacing them with changelings. How would you rate the relative probabilities of that being the truth or him being a liar or mistaken?

This isn't really arbitrary -- there are plenty of people in the world who deeply believe in the existence of elves and little people.

> There is no such obligation

And, insofar as such an obligation to “maximise shareholder value” might exist, that obligation doesn’t necessarily translate into “maximise profit”.

The shareholders of a theatre company might care more about breaking even while getting an interesting assortment of plays produced with a great cast than they do about making a bunch of money out of the venture, so an executive who makes a bunch of money by running productions of uninspired cash grab shows won’t actually be maximising value. Likewise, I’m sure that Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds care more about Wrexham AFC’s managers getting good athletic results than they do about making a bunch of money.
To me that is only indicative of growth, not decline. People are downloading the app in high numbers. Comparing the downloads of the app across time relative to other apps is unscientific.

The issue is one of Policy vs. Mechanism - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separation_of_mechanism_and_po...

It is "Mechanism" which should be separated out and encapsulated while "Policy" (aka business logic) is what is better centralized as a linear (possibly large) function.

Epic Games only had about 2,000 in 2020 and they also develop games, store front (although really slowly), so it's at least a 4x more than they need.

But also their previous monetization seems to try charge per professional developer which is a limited audience compared to consumers, especially if you want to maintain a AAA engine (which it seems Unreal is favoured still) given it seems fast pace techniques & improvements. Maybe by selling cloud servers for networking, which I think maybe they were too expensive compared to alternatives.
Stop saying it that way.

Both functions take an order and return a pizza. This seem perfect for testing.

Why would you care where the oven comes from, if the function deliver perfectly baked pizza? A unit test should test against the public interface and not be coupled to implementation details, since that will hamper refactorings.

Mocking is an antipattern anyway, and should be avoided except for nondeterministic components like current time or stateful external services.
This is exactly what I’m talking about. That is too cartoonish to be real. I’m not denying that whichever person lobbied or propagandized in whatever way, but it is extremely unlikely to have been the main cause.

A more plausible explanation is that there is an emergent phenomenon where the use of cars drastically reduced the degree of coordination required to develop usable residential property. People are generally lazy when they can be, and so future developers took the easy route of developing land without much regard for things like walkability, because they no longer strictly had to. Prior to cars, if a developer did this, they would not have sold the property. Cars dissolved a natural constraint on property development.
From their FAQ[0]:

> We treat different devices as different installs. We don’t want to track identity across different devices.

This allows malicious actors to fake the device identity, which leads to the exact same problem.

> We are not going to charge a fee for fraudulent installs or “install bombing.” We will work directly with you on cases where fraud or botnets are suspected of malicious intent.

This roughly says "trust us bro". They will "work directly with you" in cases of fraud? How nice, but that could just mean an automated response email with generic advice, followed by radio silence. No promise that they will resolve the issue, no promise they will work on it before your dev studio is bankrupt, this is just a collection of words built on trust they don't have right now.

Because mobile games that aren't free do not sell (except Minecraft). In mobile F2P space you can end up with tons of downloads, with less than 20 cents per download, because majority of the players are free casual ones, who play few hours or even minutes, and 99% of your revenue comes from the so called 'whales' (players who spend a LOT of money). If you hate this business model - good for you, I do too and I don't do mobile gamedev, but it's a reality there and Unity knows it.

Unity also doesn't give a crap about quality unless by quality you mean microtransactions, milking players and ads/adware. The engine is associated (partly unfairly) with lagginess, low performance, high ram usage, and crappy games and assets flips. Unity is famous for how slowly new features come and how buggy it is in parts. They also scrapped their own game on Unity that was supposed to show how to use Unity right, it's an engine company that never made games (unlike Epic or id Software, who made games first, engine seconds, and even when being in engine business they kept making games). Unity users who just slapped few assets together basically created the asset flip genre, the opposite of quality. As CEO of EA Riccotello supported always online online DRM that shut down singleplayer games on release day due to servers dying, as CEO of Unity he said you are a "fucking idiot" (direct words) if you don't want to maximize your monetary return from your players. Unity bought an adware company, Unity has an ad network (and if you use it to put ads in your game, they waive the install fee, curious..).

I would agree with your preference, especially because many artists have to retire off of their creations, and also disabled people are likely more represented in art.

The 10x less code is false—see my other comment here [0]. The short of it is that Nue implementation uses 10x less code because it has 10x fewer features: no typeahead, no multiselect, no aria support, no customization options. It's an apples-to-oranges comparison that should be removed.

Oh please, cats are perfectly fine indoors if they are raised that way. There are solutions, like building a catio, indoor platforms and so forth. You can even train them for walking on a leash in a park. If there is a will there is a way. But people are lazy and pretend letting cats out is not a problem.

And if you are living in a shoebox yourself, where you regard your own home as a "prison" or a "cage", then you have no business keeping such a pet anyway.

Heat exchanger blows outside air in and inside air out. Both air streams are flowing through the box in opposite directions, without mixing, so that outgoing air heats up and gets cooled by incoming air (assuming outside is colder than inside). These devices can be extremely efficient as they can recover something like 80-90% of energy.

In my case I am not necessarily looking to save up more energy, I am interested in being able to ventilate the apartment better without breaking the bank on energy.

It's infuriating. He talked to 40 people, some "very high level", which is ambigious sure but Grush himself was a Colonel equivlent when he was in the NGIA, but there is a significant amount of people inside the government who are directly telling Grusch we have this stuff. He gave the ISG all the evidence (documents etc) names, interviews etc. The ISG declared it an urgant concern (this is apparently seperate from the retaliation claims).

He goes and gives a summary of this stuff to congress, and random normal people say "oh there's no evidence", but he clearly HAD IT, AND gave it to the ISG. Congress asked to see it, and have been denied. Why are they being denied if there's nothing? How can congress properly perform their function of oversight if they keep getting denied requests?

What's frustrating is there's a sector of the government that seems happy to say "we haven't see any evidence, must be nothing" while at the same time the government is refusing to share the supposed evidence.

I think in 2017 I would have been one of the skeptical people, but the more I watch this play out, it's cystal clear there is something and there is a group of people in our government who want it out there, and a group of people in our government who absolutely do not.

I actually think that’s a terrible take. Maybe they are just salty about the USB speeds, a feature that is irrelevant for the vast majority of people. The A17 in the Pro is an extremely marginal improvement over the A16 of about 10%.

The iPhone 15 vs 14 has the better main camera with 4x the resolution, usb-c charging, dynamic island, upgraded processor, and twice the peak brightness. Seems like a totally solid upgrade for MSRP 100 bucks!

If callers typically know statically whether they want emoji or not (in other words, if the parameter would typically be a literal true or false at the call site), then the parameterless version is better. (Note that you can still factor out common code from the two functions into a separate private function if you like. So the parameterless version doesn’t necessarily imply code duplication.) If, on the other hand, callers tend to be parameterized themselves on whether to use emojis or not, then the parameterized version is better, because it avoids having to make a case distinction at the call site.

Well put. And everyone plays along. When the big, popular apps become idiocracized, then the smaller apps follow suit. It really seems that there's a race-to-the-bottom effect going on.

Case in point: Guitar tuner apps. Back in 2005 a good friend of mine had a startup that made the best-in-class guitar tuner app in the feature phone / flip phone era, before Android. Back then, they had to deal with all manner of constraints from vendors and the hardware of the day. They figured it out and shipped a featureful app that had a < 1MB binary and run at realtime speeds and had an intuitive UI. They sold it for something like a $6 one-time payment and were happy keeping their startup chugging along at $500k-$1M annual revenue. Fast forward to today, there are a zillion clones, typically weighing in at 40+MB, are "free with ads" and will nag you endlessly to sign up for $7, $10, even $15 per month. Their UIs suck, too. I have no idea what their revenue aspirations are, but this is totally driven by capturing consumer surplus from the orders-of-magnitude larger Android market. We all lose.

I do not pay for these apps; I would gladly have back that $6 app, but can't have it. The market is absolutely saturated with enshittified Android apps. Instead, I intentionally spend significantly more than that on dedicated tuners (like the excellent but somewhat fragile Snark clip-on ones).
