I didn't post that comment, but I'd suggest it's not necessarily a rational worry at all. It's just human nature that if you tell somebody that something can run out, then some part of their brain will worry about it running out. :)

AT&T may have innovated in their labs, but they were glacially slow pushing innovation out to consumers. AT&T launch the push button phone in 1963, but it wasn't until the 80's (deregulation in 1984) that a majority of dial phones had been switched over to touch tone. One didn't their home phone, they rented from AT&T, so what was their incentive to innovate?

Subreddits that are about buying things (/r/buyitforlife, /r/frugalmalefashion) are done. Same with any askreddit thread that's like "What's a product for under $x that changed your life" or something like that.

I still find /r/cooking gives good recommendations, despite the fact that the world of recipes is filled with spam and low quality content. Maybe the unit economics of astroturfing just don't work out for it.
It does correlate, and it is accounted for. We have evidence to believe the causal arrow points lead=>poverty. This is because the natural experiments of phasing out leaded gasoline in different countries at effectively randomized times produce subsequent decreases in lead poisoning (and downstream crime). This is as close to a controlled "give one population lead poisoning" experiment as you can ethically run.

It's worth mentioning that the Google you're talking about was way way different than it is today. Google Search was a startup. Google Search + Email was a small company. Google Search + Email + YouTube was a midsize firm. Now they're a humungous megacorp that's slow to make necessary changes when there's a paradigm shift like LLMs.

No? What makes you think so?

For a counter example: if everyone decides for themselves what they want to do with themselves, that's not democratic at all. Doesn't involve any voting etc. But it's systematically distributed power.

And that kind of arrangement is common for most aspects of life in most places.

Eg you can decide for yourself what you want for breakfast or whether you want any breakfast at all. Throughout most of history you could also decide for yourself what kind of substances you want to put into your body.

Though in the last hundred-and-something years there has been a lot of democratic (or autocratic..) control over that in many places. Cannabis and alcohol make for interesting example of how (democratic or not) government control waxes and vanes.

In most countries, where you go for a holiday is up to you. But eg Americans' democratically decided that they can't go to Cuba without a special license. (By the way, I would call this the opposite of distributing power. They centralised the decision.) In the bad old days, people living in the German Democratic Republic famously were really restricted in their holiday-abroad choices. (But whether one wants to call their regime 'democratic' is rather debatable.)

But the right solution to East Germany's travel restriction wasn't to put every citizens travel plans under democratic control (eg up to a vote by all the citizens). The Right Thing to do was to just lift travel restrictions, and that's what they did when they joined the Federal Republic of Germany.
A simple paygo model with monthly caps at the same prices as the current tiers could work.

Still no need to think about it, no need to lock into a subscription, but you also don’t have to worry about blowing your credit card up if you have a research paper due or something.

They were the best search engine from the get-go and had a massive impact. Gmail/maps also to a lesser extent.

In AI they were giants in what looks post-ChatGPT like a mediocre field. Their search now is looking very jaded.

The trajectory here isn't remotely like their past performances; it's not a safe bet to assume they'll win through with Bard or anything else.

The agility of OpenAI and the revolutionary impact of gpt3+ has made the former incumbents like Google look like posturing, self-satisfied, giant lumbering has-beens. They aren't getting back on top without massive internal changes.

You seem to be suggesting that humans are capable of perceive objective truth for non trivial things.

I say that we aren't. And given that, you are better off believing the lie that helps you or makes you feel good instead of the one that hurts you, assuming both have the same predictive power.

"Where the people are" doesn't simply mean "where a large number of people live". It also has connotations of "where it's happening", as in "where people are coming together (right now)".

But my point is really that speaking of the correct answer with a question as vague and open to interpretation as this one is absurd.
When you're poor you don't have the luxury of worrying about security updates, and your credit probably isn't good enough for those carrier deals. You use a phone until the battery explodes, and on that measure even the cheapest of new phones is going to outlast a refurbished anything.
Apart from the crypto you are building the thing I wanted to build. I was thinking the same things you are saying. The closest thing so far is PHP shared hosting ala 1990s style and a platform that let you code and deploy in the browser (I forgot the name) but it felt limited.

We have this bizarre situation where github spaces, github actions and something like vercel is as close as you can get but it is complicated.

Well done on the launch!
IMO ribbon menus are when implemented correctly actually better than a menu bar. It gives icons and the benefit of a GUI to old text-menus.

Hamburger menus I disagree with but sort of understand the logic of - they're basically like making 'fullscreen mode' the default mode, and then the hamburger menu button just sort of temporarily toggles that off. It makes perfect sense on mobile (I don't think that's what you're talking about though), and on the desktop it can make sense in a web browser when you have, essentially, 3 sets of chrome - you have the desktop window, the browser's chrome, and then the website's chrome all before you get to the website's content.
I think you are nicely describing the field of preventive medicine. You picked a particularly good example (CAD) because we know that preventive efforts work. Hopefully that will expand to all diseases in time. In the circumstances where we really understand the disease process, is seems much better to prevent symptom onset than to wait to treat after things are so bad that the patient notices them.
Ah. Reverse Polish notation!
I don't get how you folks believe Canada's allegations right off the bat, when there is no factual proof or evidence provided by them.

As long as there is no evidence provided by Canada, India is the victim here, with Canada leveling baseless allegations on her.

That's why I said, India has to confirm Canada's factual evidence first, because it can be any politically motivated bullshit for all we know.

Or the attacks may have been carried out by a rogue agent, with no hand of the Indian government in it. But even then the Canada has jumped the gun and claimed that the killings were state sponsored. In that case too India is the victim with Canada making false accusations against her.
Growth in revenue-free end users might not be fantastic news for the Matrix team. As I understand it they make money from b2b integrations (eg French government) and supporting a horde of WhatsApp transplants is only ever going to be a net negative cost centre for them.

There aren’t exactly many so it’s a bit hard to generalise but free, large scale chat apps are the side projects of tech companies with existing revenue streams.

> includes an actual, physical, hardware Gameboy Advance CPU

That's an old trick (though no less cool). The GBA had a GBC cpu in it for backwards compatibility, and it used a physical switch to change modes, toggled by the cartridge itself. And iirc the PS2 reused the PS1 cpu as a component on the board for I/O, so it was available for backwards compatibility as well (though with emulation help for other components).
I think it's still probably better to throw all the money down on an unlikely sports bet or some crazy options trade. The lottery is particularly skewed to the house.

but in any sane road network this steps will _not_ kill anyone

because any sane road network doesn't contain death traps

it's not the responsibility of any 3rd party map service to close up death traps in a road network

it's the responsibility of whoever maintains that network

additionally I would say it's the responsibility of the same institute to publish information about road network changes like closures for maintenance or due to damages, I mean if even the people which sole job it is to maintain the road network don't know if a street is closed off or not (ignoring spontaneous changes) how is some 3rd party then supposed to know

(some exceptions to off road roads which frequently might be closed of by weather and in general often can't be taken with normal cars and always have warning signs etc.)

I mean would you have said the same if the bridge just broke a week ago? Or if it would have been a different card service like OpenStreetMaps? Or if they had used a card service where you need to buy map updates and they handn't done so yet?

The safety of traffic participant _must never ever_ depend on the navy system they are using.

But this also means that you hardly ever can fault a map service for stuff like that. ( I mean if it tries to rout your multi day road trip through a desert that's a different matter.)

I'm not sure people LIKE flying, it's just the best of a lot of mediocre alternatives depending on the distance you're traveling and the time you're willing to allocate.

I've certainly had a few airline experience that ended in my wishing I had just driven from A to B because delays and the general inconvenience of it all meant that it would have been faster AND cheaper to drive, but of course we didn't know that when we booked the flight.

Sounds nearly impossible unless you think Windows, MacOS, Linux, Unreal Engine, ROS and every real-time OS will be rewritten within 20 years. Plus infrastructure and ecoystems for so many other domains (e.g. audio, signal processing, telecom, simulation, aerospace). There's plenty of fresh young talent getting into these fields every year.
I don't perceive those relations as similar, although they are related - kinda mirror images of each other. One is the partner of family, the other is family of the partner. In the former case I expect to have the connecting person's (i.e. my sibling's) loyalty if push comes to shove, and in the latter case I expect the brother-in-law to have the connection's (i.e. my spouse's) loyalty.
It looks like we're working off fundamentally different definitions of central planning, so of course we disagree. Central planning, in my vernacular, does not at all imply government control. It simply means that most decisions are made by some sort of central authority and executed by decentralized agents, rather than plans being made by the agents themselves. This is how most non-franchise businesses operate.

If you require central planning to retain an element of planning by the government in your definition, then I agree, energy is not a good example of this.
It’s kind of funny that you think that DeSantis has made Florida “politically unattractive” to where people will “leave in droves” when over the last few years there has been such an influx of people to Florida escaping New York, New Jersey, and Illinois to Florida primarily due to excessive taxes and their Covid politics.

In my neighborhood, there aren’t many of us long time multi-decade Florida residents. Most of my neighbors have been Florida residents for less than 5 years and many since Covid. And in my experience in my neighborhood, the types of people that his policies attracted are the type of people who simply got tired of the kind of policies in their former states and municipalities that they perceived were hurting their kids education…regardless of their political leanings. Many of my new neighbors lean left politically, but moved here because our schools were open.

Certainly not saying every DeSantis policy is a winner or popular, but when other states were shut down, killing small businesses, and watching their kids fall behind in education, Florida was open. People noticed and it appealed to them.
Skepticism is warranted, but there's no need for mockery. It only insults your humility in front of the great mystery.

Hyperbole much? Nowhere does it say JavaScript should “die”.

At $10 to essentially have a month-long evaluation of an unhindered product... that is a steal. Time to see how Kagi performs for me! I didn't give it a try in the past because I end up doing a lot of searching during the day and Google/DDG are starting to get repetitive and annoying with their results.
The time-elasticity of demand is the reason there was no price competition. You use whichever fire brigade arrives on the scene first. So you get lots of competition for getting there fast but not for lowering the price. It's like a competition for who gets to be the monopoly today.

And then because it was a chance to monopolize something it got infested with organized crime. Which is the main reason it was short-lived and never got to evolve into a functioning market. Governments found it easier to prohibit whatever was going on there than hire enough police to arrest all the firefighters.

There are fairly obvious ways to recreate something that looks pretty much like the modern system without government regulation. A city has however many fire houses that major fire insurers prepay a rate negotiated based on how many homes they insure in that service area. Since prepaying is cheaper than paying per-incident that's what substantially all the insurers do, which mutes the incentive for firefighters to hack each other to pieces to get there first.

That still isn't a lot of competition, but at least now you're negotiating for a price before the house is on fire. Which could be enough to cost less than what the government currently does.
I'm not sure what other impositions you've had to deal with that made this a hot button issue, but Kagi said nothing about getting rid of JS here. They even call out two use cases where they depend on JS for core features, what makes you think they want to remove JS support all together?
>If your metric for code success is the money it returns, then that is the only metric in which open-source has lost.

What? The dream of open source and its idea of winning, as it was discussed on peak FOSS movement era (late 90s, early 00s), was about widespread user adoption and overthrowing the Microsofts and Apple's of the world on the Desktop, with people using FOSS software, open protocols, and so on, and taking control of their computers.

It wasn't about what Google or Uber or Facebook might use for its backend. Or what FOSS libs some company like Apple or Adobe might use to create their proprietary software.

So, this dream has never happened. Instead businesses used FOSS for their closed off backend stuff, or for the behind-the-scences OS backend of their proprietary mobile phone platforms, whose crucial part is all the proprietary add-on services, and which almost everybody uses in its corporate official release, while people's computers and smartphones were never more locked-in.

The mass movement of FOSS idealism has also vanished (the kind that every kid in computer science cared about, the kind that made headlines, launched thousands of blogs and discussions on the subject) and so on. Now it's either a hobby or a corporate paying gig for most, seen in a pragmatic light.
> The constant embeds everything that an English-speaking localizer needs to explain the relationship in a different language. That’s why something like the [proposal] (just use the Chinese name for this relationship) would not be an improvement.

I don't exactly agree. Note that this constant embeds two terms, exactly because this particular kinship term does not distinguish them. In the other word this constant can only reasonably used in the Chinese kinship system, and others will be confused regardless of whether it's translated or not. The reasonable UI should group such labels into some dedicated section like "Extended families (Chinese system)" so that they don't need to be translated literally. Same for other kinship systems, of course.
> i bet most of them could, and that a lot of the time the average person spends in school now is not as well-directed toward their likely life needs — which may be less easily ascertained.

Interesting to order it this way because, as the engine of meritocracy, education is supposed to determine life direction, not be reflective of it. Of course this isn't how people actually think of it, but we don't live in a meritocracy either now do we
