I actually think this is where automation and tools are most useful in some respects. Instead of displacing workers they bring an ability into the range of the average person. I’m not familiar with Wix specifically but I didn’t see that there was this huge industry of people making websites for individuals. Mostly because individuals can’t afford it! A tool brings it within the budgets of individuals and you get an explosion of websites. MySpace was very similar. 3D printing is another technology that has largely let previously hard and expensive manufacturing to be done by the individual.

It’s be callous to disregard that this probably also displaces some people from jobs but personally I think the difference of scale is important. In particular what scale can society and the economy actually absorb. I think there are good arguments that there are social and economic issues already starkly apparent that have been caused by similar shocks. Extrapolating from those experiences the likely impact of large scale AI shocks right now seems to be larger inequality and more social and economic issues than less.

Yes - it reminds me that despite any overbearing corporatist or draconian protections on games in this very modern "service game" era, people are still clever enough to not only reverse engineer them, but resolve issues that cost some people thousands of hours of pain.

I still game an awful lot, GTAVs loading screens is one of many examplea that have juat caused me collectively hours of pain. I hate the anti-consumer world in which games are now made, but individual hobbyist brilliance fills me with joy.

To be fair, in some niche cases that’s the only thing that works. Complex WebAudio applications, for example.
One friend nicknamed me The Illuminazi due to my continued war against cool white lights used at night in homes.

Right, but Firefox’s enhanced tracking protection mode blocks Statcounter’s JS (see https://github.com/disconnectme/disconnect-tracking-protecti... which is where, I believe, Mozilla source their ETP blocklist from). Given the userbase for Firefox these days, I’d be very surprised if Statcounter is even vaguely accurate.

Yes, I met other parents with higher education/a scientific background (researchers, engineers...) and living the same situation with their child. They naturally question the assertions by healthcare professionals, they make their own research, they ask highly precise and relevant questions to such a point that most doctors are simply unable to answer...

I remember that as I was questioning the diagnosis at the hospital and trying to make sure there wasn't another medical explanation, I was basically threatened by doctors who told me, "Just stop asking questions and accuse your nanny as everyone else, or you'll be the one in trouble". Apparently, it was very unusual for a parent to refrain from accusing the nanny when she was the suspect number 1!

I actually know one case where the parents (with a high education) were "too fast" in exonerating their nanny and tried to find a second medical opinion on their own to find out why their child was sick. Well, the judicial system didn't like it and they ended up being accused themselves. Their child was taken away for 4 months. The trauma was so intense that their family didn't survive and they eventually divorced (that's unfortunately the fate of many, if not most families).
China actually has regulation for safe AI. It's hard to say how "safe" that regulation is. But it's better than what US is doing with OpenAI. Essentially do whatever lol.

This problem is likely that the head(s) that decide policies cannot think of more than order 1 logic.

You don't assume the "enemy" will just bow down. Your policies must include their reaction. Like playing chess, you aren't just checkmating the king.

The best scenario for the west would've been to integrate themselves into the chinese high tech supply chain, such that their indigenous companies cannot exist without massive state subsidies (because they aren't in a position to compete), which drains other aspects of the state's budget, and in turn, allow the western companies the profits required for further innovation and new tech.

The export bans and the rhetoric around that is so short sighted. The loss in profit will directly affect the research into the next generation. The lack of western tech means the chinese indigenous chip makers will, by necessity, invent the tech themselves.
But most of what makes things interesting in road racing are not taken into account right?

I mean the sheer violence of the accelerations after a slow corner, railing the corners at full speed in an exilarating way, being thrown in the gutters in crosswind fighting to stay on the wheel in front like your life depend on it, dropping other riders in a downhill section through faster speed in the corners, etc.
the corollary of this is "generalize time series forecasting cannot be solved", which is likely to simultaneously be true

That doesn't seem unreasonable to me. I mean, one person could probably come up with six scripts given enough time, but having input from other writers is likely to be very helpful. Even if you thought collaboration had no value whatsoever, having 3 people each working on a script at once means your entire 6 episode season gets done that much faster. Plus you figure life happens and people get sick, need days off, etc. Having more than one body in the writer's room still seems like a good idea.

Going from "meta/google will build their own app store" to "no 3rd parties are going to make their app store" is a long stretch.

On android there's f-droid, which is an open source version of the app store with lots of great apps.
I support forcing open standards on tech giants. But I don’t support singling out a specific tech giant (in this case Apple), since it means Apple’s also-tech-giant competitors get an upper hand.

For example, why not force Google to open up Chrome, to increase interoperability? I want to be able to export saved passwords from Chrome and import them into the macOS keychain, and vice versa.

If the EU focuses on Apple and forgets, say, Chrome, it might gain an even greater market share because Apple has to open up features while Google doesn’t have to open up Chrome.

We do this too. I have a very bad memory overall, mostly due to my willful desire to forget the past. As a result I reflect very seldom, and never really take time to smell the roses. I also just dump my photos into backups without thinking.

Since my gf and I have been doing our yearly photo albums, my outlook has greatly improved, and you get to summarise your entire year (albeit with some cherrypicking) - which in itself is a fantastic bonding exercise - as well as present it to visitors.

It's a testament to our love, to our shared past, and to our continuing future.

Many people seem to overlook the fact that Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) is primarily developed for the purpose of sharing logic. KMP provides capabilities that are on par with what native C++ and C libraries have offered for several years, but with a higher level of sophistication.

For those who discuss 'compose multiplatform' and UI sharing using KMP, it's essential to understand that KMP's primary focus is logic sharing. Sharing user interfaces is merely an additional capability it offers via Compose Multiplatform. I strongly recommend that everyone conducts further research. Comparing KMP with Flutter and React Native is like comparing apples and oranges.
> I'd love feedback on anything, such as how to improve the UI/UX of the mobile view of the map page.

Looks great, the UI is snappy and impressively fast.

One thing I would suggest is defaulting to the “Mean annual depth” background, as I’m viewing a rainfall specific website and would expect to see that.

You could also update the URL with the map state, like [1] Windy does on their site (and google maps)

So you, as a person concerned with privacy, will not install non appstore version, easy peasy sr even better- not install fb at all. You keep your security, and ppl that want sideload will have what they want, everyone happy. And it's quite ironic that on Android the app works as usual, no crippled version

Im not particularly fond of these types of lists, but given the author and the material posted, this is definitely an exception.

One thing I didnt quite get:

> Every project is a triangle made of time, money, and quality; shortening the length of one side necessarily lengthens one or—more often—both of the other sides.

If I'm assuming the longer a side is, the "more" of it that is required, then the way I understand it is that the "quality" side might need to rather be "inverse quality", such that shortening the quality side length increases quality. As per the original statement, a reduction in quality (shortening the quality length) increases time and/or money, whereas IME when building something out, quality results come at a (time/money) cost.
I guess it half makes sense if the perspective is that defering on quality (shortening the line) costs more in the long run (increasing length of the other 2 lines). But then taken from the perspective of the other 2 sides of the triangle: reducing money or time doesnt result in an increase (longer side) of quality... typically the opposite.

So genuine question: did I misunderstand the point?
> However I really like the article's point that you're always going to be living within _some_ memory budget, so you might as well allocate everything up front into a giant arena, and then divide the giant arena up into smaller arenas.

That depends. If you’re running on e.g. a video game console where you’re the sole user of a block of pretty much all memory, go ahead. On a system with other things running, you generally don’t want to assume you can just take some amount of memory, even if it’s “just the free memory”, or even “I probably won’t use it so it will be overcommitted”. Changing system conditions and other system pressure are outside of your control and your reservation may prevent the system from doing its job effectively and prioritizing your application appropriately.
Not only does it have a wasm target, it also has a web version: https://editor.godotengine.org/

I suppose it's not any kind of priority to the project. Tested it a bit and it does seem to work :), but it's slower than running it natively.

It is human behavior. Cheating is engrained in everyone's life. Mostly everyone try to cheat at life all the time. That coffee in the morning? Your cheating your way into life trying to be and feel more awake than you should. The nutritionnal supplements? cheating. The sleeping pills, antidepressant some people take. Cheating. The hormone therapy of aging mens. Cheating. The aesthetic chirurgy. Cheating. Mentionning stuff you were in fact barely involved in in your previous job in an interview. Cheating. Going past the speed limits while driving. Cheating. I could go on for hours with examples.

In fact just considering using a turbo trainer at home and connecting to zwift can be considered cheating.
He did say "Apple and other Big Tech" so I don't think he's singling them out especially. It's just that they're the most obvious example of a closed ecosystem right now.
So why do you think this hasn't happened in android yet?
I was once on a call with a recruiter - the company seemed interesting - asking what positions they are looking people for, only to be met with question what can I do.

I mentioned software development and some project management things, but we kind of ended up talking in loops. It was difficult to tell what I can do when they didn't seem to know what they were looking for or had available.

it was a weird experience
> The best scenario for the west would've been to integrate themselves into the chinese high tech supply chain, such that their indigenous companies cannot exist without massive state subsidies

This was exactly the situation before the sanctions. That's why the Chinese semiconductor industry back then developed at a snail's pace: no Chinese company wanted sucky Chinese suppliers because foreign ones are better. Chinese suppliers developed competence slowly because nobody wanted to buy from them.
GNOME web is a curiosity at best. It's probably in some corner of my SSD. tt's there "WebKitGTK 2.40.5"!

However the only Webkit based browser that matters is Safari and the only company pushing it is Apple and only on their hardware.
And what? Your security is still untouched. Want pristine xp, you get it, want to sideload? Ya, no prob. This is called freedom. You can keep your apple experience while others can get more
Saw this comment too late, sorry. Yes, that's overhead for the operator of the service. But this is not what I was referring to, nor the OP to which I answered. He made the false assumption that the gas fee moves up or down because node operators in the network reflect the costs to settle a transaction in the price, if the costs to them goes up then, he assumed, gas fees go up. This is not how it works. Node operators don't have a mechanism to reflect the costs to settle a transaction in the gas fee. Those two prices are allowed to float independently, then there are some mechanisms coded into the protocol that tend to produce equilibriums so that there is never too much disparity and the network remains profitable.

> Having more choice means that in case you need them you can use these other choices, it doesn't mean you will have to explain to someone about all these different choices and how they work,

So you want to hide them from the user? Are they really choices then anymore? Or how would the user know that these are choices they can, if they want, ignore?

"Hey mom, yeah, don't worry, just scroll past most of the 27 choices and pick the 16th one. That one turned out to be the one everyone uses, it's easiest to explain. Yes, the one between choice X and choice Y. Oh, wait that's Z for you? Hm, you must be on version C still. In version F it's the 16th one. Just tell me the last dozen ones. Hm, no. Oh, yeah, I guess that choice has not been added yet. I think it was part of update D that brought the other 3 choices. Yeah, sorry, guess you can't do it like everyone else then."

Edit: I tried to over-dramatize this but it feels like a conversation about Android I had the other day now that I read it myself ...

EU did the same to Microsoft by forcing them to allow setting other browsers than IE as the default.

As for Chrome, it's already pretty open. Anyone can build extensions for it and distribute it freely. The same cannot be said for iOS.
No one was singled out.

The DMA applies to anyone with a "gatekeeper" role. Part of the criteria for the role are: having more than 45 million monthly active users and more than 10,000 yearly active business users established in the EU, for the past three years.

Six companies (and in particular, 22 services offered by those companies) are currently listed as gatekeepers. [1]

If Blink becomes a monopoly, and with it chromium, then Google can finally be "properly" hit with an antitrust case over Chrome. Especially when combined with the fact the big G can't keep directly funding Firefox to create a fake competition anymore under the new rules from the digital markets act.

Google should've been hit with an antitrust case on Chrome years ago and their recent shenanigans with the topics api only make that more relevant, where now Google is playing gatekeeper to an already technically dubious system meant to put the spying on users directly into the browser (all because they couldn't solve the fact that the topics api still makes fingerprinting rather easy). Eliminating the "competition" that Google has artificially made needs to be done though because otherwise it's just not obviously visible.
This has nothing to do with communism, which hadn't even been invented at this point. It's about cottage industry vs capitalism.

> Learn about Chesterton's Fence. Then, actively resist altering a given situation before you understand the reasons why it's remained unchanged for so long.

This is probably the most important advice for developers who start a new job, or have to work with existing code. Trying to refactor code or replacing it with a new micro service requires that you understand the old code. If you are not willing or able to take the time to understand it, you do not know enough to replace it.

I have made this mistake several times in the past, but it has taken time for me to learn this lesson. I have complex data flows and error handling and thought I could simplify it or rewrite it as a new service. I would later find out that the old code handled scalability, edge cases or unknown external dependencies that my new code did not. These issues appeared in small "drips" over time, so it was easy to focus on the individual bugs instead of noticing the larger pattern. This led me to believe that the next rewrite would turn out better. The real lesson is that I did not know enough about the existing code and made assumptions that turned out to be incorrect.

Sometimes you need to make changes because the old system has started to "rot", which makes it hard to add new features. Just make sure that it is accidental complexity and not necessary complexity.
DMA is not singling out a specific tech giants, it targets all platform holders of a certain size.

Google is hit too, they'll have to open up too.
