It’s a pity, because one benefit of UML would be that everyone speaks the same language. Before UML, there were many different modeling notations [0], and the goal with UML was to create a single interoperable unified language. This was successful insofar as it displaced the previous object modeling languages. However, it would be nice to have that benefit of a modeling lingua franca not only in modeling tools, but for casual usage as well.

For those who haven't seen it, may I present https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ilR93GwSYEA : "C'ETAIT UN RENDEZ-VOUS" - Claude Lelouch (1976), a short film of driving from the north of Paris to Montmartre in eight minutes. The title card says "no trick photography and the film has not been sped up".

Any particular reason they decided to write the RTL from scratch?
Frankly, this steady trickle of "common factor X linked to bad thing Y: new study" posts here on HN and in the general press is not helpful. At all. It just causes one of two things in readers: overambitious disorders such as orthorexia and underambitious disorders such as apathy. That and probably more 'bipolar' ones like denial.
Can you elaborate on the minimal carbon footprint in this context?
I'm not so sure. I used to use a 30Hz display while waiting for a driver update (was a 4k early adopter), and I found programming with a 33ms key latency to be maddening. Even 60Hz feels slow if you've used higher refresh rate devices. (I wrote a toy editor with imgui and tried it on my 360Hz monitor vs. my 60Hz monitor and the smoothness was wonderful; high refresh is good for more than just shooting people in a game, though that's why I have that particular monitor.)

e-ink displays are nice, but I wonder if it's just because how contrast works? The software asks for #000000 text on a #FFFFFF background, and with e-ink, that's maybe a handful of stops apart. But if you do that on an HDR display, maybe it's twice as many stops apart. The solution might be to ask for #555555 text on a #AAAAAA background, or something like that. (I dark mode everywhere, so I'd do the opposite. In fact, I do do that, my terminal background is not black, and my text is not white. I pick like grey10 and grey90.)
You are encrypting a single block of unique information. No other encryption mode gives you any advantages whatsoever.
Things I associate with software from Japan:

- Dense interfaces, flashy colors, the opposite of Apple-style minimalism

- Proprietary software

- Lots of customization when its comes to appearance / theming

- Passionate communities

- Traditionalism, resistance to change

- Function over security

It does not all apply to Floorp, but that's what I think when I think of "made in Japan" software.

For example, Floorp is open source, which I think is less common in Japan than in the west, and hopefully, it is secure. But the customization and "dual sidebar" (i.e. more stuff on screen) features are typically Japanese.

Be is it may, there are companies like iText (Java PDF library) which are actively harassing companies which use their software, even if the use is perfectly legal (e.g. internal server software). So it's not only Google spreading FUD but companies which try to use AGPL as a trojan horse and then strong-arm users into commercial licenses.

The problem with AGPL is, that the definitions are very open to interpretation. What is a network, how many systems do have to be between to the end user and the software component to still count as "interacting over a network", etc.

So I would also not recommend to use AGPL in your company...
I fully agree with what you're saying, but I just want add something to your comment in case people might misinterpret this sentence:

> What I think you might be missing is that Venus could be a pet project of a single person, done in their free time over some period.

Yes, a single Venus figure is likely made by a single person. But the Venus of Willendorf is not unique. There are 200 over known "Venus figurines" from a period of 300,000 BC to 11,00 BC. So they were a wide-spread phenomenon indicating some form of shared socio-cultural connection among the early humans despite how far we were spread out and how much lower the population density was compared to now.

This is of course tangential to the point you were making.

I found disabling notifications and moving the app off the Home Screen did the trick for me. I unintentionally weaned myself off Facebook. Facebook did this to themself. When they started throwing irrelevant push notifications at me I couldn’t turn off, I just disabled ALL of them. That was a dumbass invasive move on their part which I’m sure hurt more than it helped their engagement.

I think it's not a question of scalability but the sensibility to develop skills needed to “read the room”. Just because the thread was public, doesn't mean it's appropriate to join. In many cases people post to share or vent and even if it sounds like a question, they probably don't want another opinion.
Happy to see tracking protection in Floorp.

I've been trying out all the firefox forks that come out and end up back on master Firefox (on desktop, Mull wins on Android IMO) due to the inevitable limits of developer time on the project. The value proposition is never quite worth it for the downsides. A web browser is not a trivial project to build and upstream changes are unrelenting.

Just like I've seen in Linux for 20+ years, we see different tribes basically working on the same thing in slightly different ways, and I find my self thinking over and over "Why are all these people building different sandcastles when they could be working together?". Particularly with the Firefox forks where projects seem to struggle with the release cadence.

It's a rhetorical question though - effective organization appears hard to scale especially when there is no money involved. How many cash rich companies have you worked at that have lost the plot?

I would really like to see Firefox win again in the browser battles. I personally believe that its the UX where differentiation from the chromiums is opportune with many interesting and desirable new UI paradigms emerging in some the recent third-party browser upstarts.
To be fair, this isn't a gig worker problem, it's a Brazil problem.

There is no way to calculate that, since current finds are not random digs. Archeologist search where they have reasons to think something of interest can be found.
your first paragraph is a needless exaggeration, and your second is demonstrably untrue. Calm down and recognise that this change will result in quieter, safer streets. There’s nothing to be threatened by.
I don't think you've understood my comment.
I'm baffled how posts related to Russian software always get politicized... Can't we just celebrate good free and open source software and leave politics out of it? Don't like who's behind it? Just fork it or don't use it at all!

Software is software, people are people and governments are governments. Stop mixing it all together, it's a hypocrites minefield. If you're feeling so righteous about the countries of who writes your software, just throw your computer out of the window.

Agreed, also, imo boring implies that failure modes are well understood or at least documented and have a bigger community to rely on when you eventually hit them.
Hmmm.... I think that's because to use one of the React hooks you need to import them from React. If you create your own hook it'll eventually use something like "useState" internally, which leads you to "import { useState } from 'react'".

Functional components on their own are not distinguishable from a good old Javascript function. I guess the presence of JSX and/or hooks give it away. I'd say it's half true that glancing at a random .js file it might not be immediately obvious if it's React or a function, but with some digging you should be able to find out by following the imports.

What is programming if not a structured language for describing tasks to a machine. We are not there yet, but outside of the world of core technology, most of the programming we will see in the near future will be essentially telling the machine what to do in natural language. So if you want to have some form of job security my recommendation is to go lower level and work on the fundamental pieces of tech because the higher level stuff will be automated away.

5) A not insignificant part of the population heard and understood that masks protect others and said "why should I suffer to protect them?"

I observed this sentiment in particular about return to school, and not just about masks. A sizable portion of the population would seemingly do anything to avoid accidentally helping someone else.
I was not wrong.

I was at home and isolating while looking at the hospital stats.

I waited for a vaccine and didn't get alpha.

When I did get COVID I already had a shot.

I was wearing an easy to wear mask and washing my hands (as I did before and still do).

The most frustrating thing to me is and was that we still live in a society were we can afford a lockdown but can't make it work.

It's the capitalism who can't handle a pandemic reasonable.

It's amazing how many people are just loyal to Apple even when it doesn't make sense.

There was a time when PCs started having vastly better graphics cards, and Adobe started prioritizing development for PCs, but still graphic designers were buying Apple because 'it's what creatives use'.
Well deserved. I've been following mRNA vaccines since long before the pandemic because of an interest in cancer therapeutic vaccines, and the technology is amazing and it took sooooo much fight to bring it forward to production. The speed and flexibility of the tech really is a huge advancement.
Back in the 80s when type-in program magazines were common, in France we had the wonderful "Hebdogiciel" with a perpetually running BASIC programming contest called "deulignes" -- which means "twolines".

"Deulignes" programs could target any platform, but must only take 2 lines of BASIC (most implementations allow only a limited line length, often 255 characters).

Some programs were really impressive; I remember one complete breakout implementation in MSX-BASIC for instance. People actually made whole (small) games in 2 lines of BASIC!

Here's an example page : https://archive.org/details/hebdogiciel-french-098/page/n15/...

> Sure, they are OSS but how do you know what goes into their binaries? Being open source does not imply that the binaries are not backdoored.

Then build your own binaries. I'm sure the Russian government wouldn't struggle to do this.
> My understanding is that complex things like statues were not supposed to be possible 12,000 years ago. I think it’s supposed to be more like 6000 years ago

I think your understanding was just incorrect. Here's a video [0] from Kurzgesagt that explains in a nutshell when the human civilisation started (spoiler: as far back as around 20,000 years ago, but definitely the case 12,000 years ago, though the boundary is very fuzzy). But also note that even before a proper civilisation started to form people already made art.

I am personally a big fan of a patch stack style workflow.

I have created a tool called Git Patch Stack, https://git-ps.sh which makes it easier to manage a stack of patches, request review of them, re-request review of them, and many other features.

Is there any reason why (in theory) we can't release heat to space in some other way? I can think of many (imaginary) ways of releasing space, for example shooting superheated materials to space, maybe some planet-scale laser-powered heat pump or radiator [1]. I realise such solutions (in general, please don't focus on my examples) are not currently possible and very far from what we can do, but there's no physical reasons we can't invent them during the next 300 years, right?
In some places you'd be right. But this is a river that would otherwise just flow into the sea. The two biggest rivers in the Netherlands have an average discharge of ~750 thousand liters of water per second. We can spare a few M3/sec for generating electricity.

Show HN: Compile inline event handlers into CSP-safe external scripts
I've got the same vibe, starting at "consciousness collapses under the reductionist process currently employed in the scientific method." Uuuhh yeah, like most abstract things, consciousness is an emergent property of simpler processes, so naturally if you look at it the other way and decompose the world to understand it, at some point it will collapse.

The next part about the scientific framework being a data structure used by our consciousness blabla quantum particles...seems like just a complicated way to say: we are conscious, even if we don't know everything.

Then, language being necessarily insufficient? Boy you like using lots of complicated words so much, you must be an expert at communicating things. Basically what I get here is: words represent concepts. (Wanking represents wanking insofar it doesn't represent anything else besides a wank. Except when I use the word 'wanking' as a metaphor for mental ejaculation).

Then we start again making dubious links between particle physics and humanities (and of course declaring that one is impossible because of the other, for some reason.) This is the signature move of pseudo-science: using scientific words to appear as an authority to an audience, but then dismissing the pursuit of truth for reasons unrelated to the actual challenges of scientific research.

I think the point is for URLs you can consistently represent the 128 bits of UUIDs with shorter strings by using a higher base. I.e. more characters.

So a nonstandard but isomorphic shorter string representation.

I do have to disagree, with remote work it's very possible to be employed, earn a very high salary and simultaneously live in a low CoL area.

Same in NL. Sirens are only turned on in the most extreme cases. In most cases lights seem to be enough. I do get the impression that firefighters are a bit more likely to use sirens than police and ambulance are, but I'm fine with that.
And there is also a rust clone of `jq`, `jaq` [1], which aims for correctness, performance and simplicity.

From my experience in France at least, nobody relies on SMS anymore and less and less people on regular calls, it all goes through Whatsapp.

Even I am guilty of that for both SMS and calls, having a single featureful app with contacts ordered by the most recent discussions descending (as in my country SMS is largely replaced by Whatsapp) leads to less friction than having to scroll through my actual phone's contact.
I used to read blue boards during lulls on the sales floor at Circuit City, which is, I think, about the most "aughts" thing I've ever said.

Are COVID-19 vaccines the first successful mRNA-based vaccines? Seems to me there should be some other successful application of mRNA when it comes to vaccines/medications even before COVID-19. In that case, how much more complex was it to create a vaccine for COVID-19 specifically?

You also see asphalt in use more and more often in streets where the number of cyclists are significant enough that cars are forced to drive slowly anyway.

There is no reason outside of ideology that a normal person would choose a pod/hostel bed/... over a spacious room for the same amount of money. It doesn't matter if you only sleep there, a house is always more comfortable all things considered.

All other argumentation is making up for the fact that you are paying exorbitant amounts of money for a tiny crowded space and can't afford a house. It is a social and political failure, not something to be celebrated.

In Victorian times you could pay a few pennies to hang over a rope with your fellow bums, or sleep in a coffin. 200 years later in the Bay you can do the same thing for a 100 times the price and people will actually relish the experience. This is slum tourism at home.

Assuming you have a table where the identifiers are stored you'd have the internal one (UUIDv7) and the encrypted version from it (external id).

You could rotate encryption keys whenever you want for new external id calculation, so that older external ids won't change (as they are external, they need to stay immutable).

What would be an "acceptable" percent of people who, despite not committing the crime they've been charged with, spent 6mo in jail to you? 5%? 10%? 20%?

And yes, the law typically makes a distinction, but that's ultimately state dependent. But frankly, if you didn't already know that, then you should seriously consider spending some doing some bottom of the barrel fundamental research that you clearly haven't done. Until you've done that research and can actually argue from a position of basic knowledge on this topic, then I can't see you as anything other than a cruel, vapid person. Do better.

Good luck.
Plenty of people living in the streets in Amsterdam as well (and that number is only rising as cars are made less prominent), but that "noise" is of a significantly different quality than car noise is.

When I said "pretty quiet", I didn't mean "completely silent", I just meant that it doesn't feel noisy.

(Though I don't recall anyone suggesting the law should be used to enforce people to be silent.)
Gas cars are very safe to work on relative to EVs. Electric car batteries are very dangerous when damaged, and any high voltage work requires extreme caution. The whole simplicity argument for electric cars was just a marketing spiel. Every car manufacturer has to make trade-offs between production and assembly costs and repairability. Tesla has made perfectly reasonable choices that optimize for cheaper production but that also result in 10k repair bills for fender benders.

Another issue is that EVs are very high torque, much like motorcycles and go carts. Teslas especially so. Most people are poor drivers and not capable of driving cars like that safely. People tend to panic and hit the throttle instead of the brake pedal when the torque takes them by surprise. More crashes -> higher insurance premiums.
The Covid-19 vaccine was the first mRNA vaccine brought to market. That's part of why there were so many conspiracy theories surrounding it.
