I read about history constantly bro. I probably have more knowledge than most I just was being humble because I felt like the person above me knew more than I did on this particular topic. I was not saying I was cheering or jeering anyone. I meant I knew some things about this topic that lead me to believe that what the other person was saying was historically inaccurate. But it is not something I had looked into in a while, so I would have needed to check my vague memories of the facts. This person did that for me and provided sources. Great! That's all I was saying. Why the hell do you feel the need to ridicule a stranger for your massive assumption of their values.
The year starts a January, but the day starts at 12. I think December should be 11 and January 12.

It makes more sense if you count both from zero. 12 is 0, January is 0.

React-query does have a state management, like redux. You can use RTK "the same way" than react-query, and it comes with more if needed, that's why I don't see real reason to prefer RQ over it

Edit: Also, IMO RTK enforce cleaner code/structure than RQ

And that's one of the reasons we don't have free market economies in general; because they are extremely harmful to society as a whole.
The dev tools of react query did it for me. Much easier to see what's going on. Especially if you are not completely familiar with all the concepts yet.

Also I think react query has more options (you may or may not find useful).
hmmm why these sound like "connect via (video)terminal to $$somewhere" from the ancient times? Except the terminal is not a dedicated vt100 or Tektronix but your laptop..
Conversely, I always use Apple's iPhone case and have broken ~2 iPhone 15 Pros and four iPhone 14 Pros, so I would very much appreciate a more durable phone.
I would suggest taking a look at SWR [0]. I think it strikes a very nice balance between using fetch and something more heavy-handed like React Query.

I'm not clumsy at all, but pixel 7 is so slippery, that if you put it on a table/laptop with little aderence and maybe a bit of inclination, it can fell off.
Meanwhile my older pixel 5 is the total opposite - it feels good in the hand and the grip is not slippery at all
My even older pixel 3 is betweenn p5 and p7, it has a glass back but it's not that bad compared to p7.
There are other advantages to plastic backs too: cheap, easy to replace, (usually) lighter compared to glass
Could be. Do you have any specific examples in mind?
It's good enough for many applications, and few of its competitors had features that were so crucial to stop customers from leaving. Also, these competitors were all intimately tied to their platform. Unless you had one of these machines, there was no reason to ever use these OSs.
Ah OK. In our case the various sources of income have to provide the information to the tax authority, and this is summarized in the prefilled web form (that you approve by clicking submit).

Now, it is your responsibility to make sure that all of the sources are indeed there but for normal people it is the salary only. It happened to me once that one source was missing and I was not happy at all (but said source provided me pronto with what to put where in the form).

Overall I would say that our tax system is complicated (as all trax systems) but made really simple for average people.

Also we do not have any companies such as yours that would provide software to make your taxes. If you want some help you can either contact a specialized finance person (this usually costs 200€ and is useful only if your case is really complicated) or you have free help areas at town halls (mairies). Or clear directions from the providers.

But as I said, it is for a select population, not for the everyday Joe who just clicks three times. There was even national ads on the radio about that.
I think this is just a regular thermal printer. No risk of fire.

Having been part of conversations with a corporate legal team about making clear policies available to explain these types of decisions, I’m sad to say it’s this and they sort of have a point.

One of the problems is if you make a specific policy available and for whatever reason you can be shown not to follow that policy (like say you’re being an intelligent human being and exercising discretion) and someone is harmed they can potentially have a cause of action. So lawyers will often bias towards making the process as opaque as possible as a defence against litigation. Someone can’t claim to have been harmed by relying on a policy that says you will take a particular action if you never commit to doing that.

It’s one of the ways a culture of civil litigation makes things worse for people by creating perverse incentives.

Secondly you can see from the whole SEO industry that people will actively try to game and evade any system you put in place and by making things crystal clear you are giving much clearer guidelines to people who are trying to do that.

None of which is intended to let Facebook off the hook. There are better ways of doing this that don’t involve banning people for life without explaining (clearly) but I at least do understand how we got to this ridiculous state of affairs.

Looks like one reason is Codecrafters is a learning site which uses Github to store users code, instead of hosting it themselves. This post is about one project which is at Codecrafters

They should explain why though
But isn’t that example more about publishing and not software development?

Software engineers fail to unionize because most of them know it’s a bad deal. Tenure in and of itself has 0 to do with your value as a software engineer.

But yes your point is right on in that the unions are useless. In large part because they are a corrupt themselves and their grift is taking a vig on employment.

No it's not bullshit. Obviously over time all our conditions improve, partially because eventually it just becomes so cheap to do this stuff that even the peasants can get it, or because there was actual TANGIBLE SOCIAL CHANGE. It's usually both. In the UK the NHS was created after ww2, by golly isn't it a feat of technology that less poor people die here. In fact our life expectancy for the poorest is several years higher than in the US, and some countries in Europe have a life expectancy for the poorest people that is 10 years higher than the US. God, I thought the US had some of the most advanced technology on earth? How can this be the case? Surely it can't be beacause of social policy?????? heavy /s
The author talk about this:

> ‘The year is an even circle’ is sufficient for 70 % of us.
> But 28 % have entered free text.

And there is a further breakdown of the other answers like ellipse, line, square, etc.

So, at least in this survey, very few people view the year linearly, just 7%.

Myself, I visualize the year as an ellipse.

With RTK you can basically have the same simple usage (with better structure IMO), and if needed you have all the power of redux, side-effect, ready to use

You actually benefit indirectly.

By having a transparent semi-automatic system and making it easier to do "the right thing", Sweden (and neighbours) collect more taxes that pay for health care, education and other benefits that you have used.
As the years go on, I find there are fewer and fewer small project ideas that give me butterflies. But this is one!

Hadn't heard of CodeCrafters before but I love how academic their challenge ideas are (eg build a DB). I'd love to see a compiler build in there too.
It might be possible that people live slightly more rugged lives than you do?
I still remember the N900 when it was first launched. It was revolutionary. Period. It's unfortunate we ended in this situation where phones are just incapable of doing anything but being a camera.
In my opinion react query doesn't really add complexity if you just use to "await" your fetches. It even comes with the nice added functionality to refetch everything when refocusing the browser. And some automatic error handling.

Once you need query invalidation it gets really useful.

But it also depends how you use fetch right now. If you do it on per-route basis, than react query might not bring a lot of benefits.

What's the issue if it only applies to contractors?

I'm very pro-union btw but my understanding is that IR35 doesn't apply to FTEs, so no need for full union rights - at least in the case of short-term contractors (who choose money and flexibility over security). Agency temps (on equivalent or lower pay than FTEs) are a different matter and may need protection. Long term contractors are disguised FTEs so their choice again, probably not normally an issue.

But perhaps I'm misunderstanding the law or the point?

Yeah, it seems I'm very aphantasic. Not even deliberately I can create an image of "year". But I can easily write/speak a text about the concept. Now it makes more sense: people always made fun of me when playing Dixit, because when "calling" they would use 1 or 2 short phrases at most, and I would instead declare a very long idea, concept or story lmao. They asked me to be "simpler" or "shorter", but I just wasn't able to do it. It also explains why I always lost in this game because people mostly couldn't grasp my text-based descriptions (winning was never my goal, though).

Perhaps it has to do with my bilingual upbringing: juggling with language was my main job for a longggggg time.
I'm not a professional developer and have seen my share of badly designed Access applications created by people who don't understand normalisation, so get the bad rep Access gets in this respect. But I've created a couple of simple apps for specific tasks that work excellent for their usecase. I can't imagine there being a simpler way of doing them with other tech stacks.

They can install a browser plugin to convert punycode to their alphabet if they care so much for using it in URLs. There is no need to inflict this on peoples with safe alphabets. Alternately, highlight non-safe-ASCII-subset characters in a different color, as VS Code does.

Similar. Been no case since the iPhone 6. I have no idea how, but I’ve only broken one screen and across our family of four (kids only starting with iPhone X, others preferring cases), we’ve broken 2 iPhone screens and one iPod screen in that time. One iPhone screen was a flex-based breakage where the screen developed a defect while the glass was intact. For all I know, plastic screens might be more subject to that failure.

Each screen replacement cost me around $75 to replace DIY.

In exchange, I have 4 3-6 year old phones that look and function as new. If you hold them just right you can see fine scratches in the light, but at a casual glance, they appear unblemished. That would not be the case if the cases were plastic. I also get the convenience of wireless charging (not possible in metal cases).
Got it. Next referendum I'll try to do fewer murders.
"Buying things out of pocket" was such a smart tactic from the union. Have each teacher buy a box of pencils for a few dollars and complain loudly so people think you are spending much more.
This gives the site read access to your private (hidden) Github email address(es) - I think often developers implementing the Github API think this permission is needed to access your public email, & it gets requested unintentionally.
There are some nice to have features in React Query off of the shelf, but nothing I’m aware of that can’t be accomplished with SWR if needed. There’s scroll restoration and offline mutations primarily. I’ve never actually needed either of those, and I personally prefer SWR because it’s so lightweight, out of the way, and portable. One thing RQ definitely has over SWR is better dev tools, but I’ve never actually needed or wanted them for either library.

People do seem to prefer RQ generally, maybe because it’s a bit more intuitive and better documented. It might be a better choice for more complex caching and mutating needs. SWR is still so easy and intuitive as it is, so I haven’t seen a reason to prefer RQ by default.
Wikipedia says it was defined as cylinder of d=6” and h=7”, and they later redefined it to use the approximation of pi as 22/7. 22/7 * 7” * (7”/2)^2 = 231 in^3. Not approximately equal, precisely equal. It’s an interesting math oddity that I hope someone else will explain.

Also, I’ve no idea if that history is true, but it sounds plausible.
Surely they could grab a digital representation along the way? I see scaling issues, will struggle at Series A...
I have been using localsend on all my devices. Of course when I'm out and need to share files with a friend's phone (mostly Android) I prefer to go for Nearby Share. But when you're at home, you have all kinds of devices. In those scenarios, I found localsend to be a perfect choice. Native app, no browser (visit this url/ scan this QR code) shenanigans. Simple transfer over the local network. Simple client for Linux, Android, Windows, iOS, MacOS and most importantly good transfer speed.
Personally I read it a little differently, more along the lines of "I didn't realise Nokia was that big! Are they involved in other sectors I don't know about?"
Please contribute to the standard if it's not flexible enough. That's what I'm saying. We need to standardize on a format and stop mucking about with ten thousand different ways of declaring a thing. Devfile, devcontainer, whatever. Just please pick an existing, open standard and upstream changes.
Can this application be removed after say Aperture is working, or do it have to stay installed?

Also, does it produce a new application package that can be installed on other computers that doesn't have Retroactive installed, or is Retroactive needed on each target machine?

You don't need to accurately assess it to be surprised they still have a lot of employees. They don't seem to do much anymore that is visible. Quite a long time ago they were a leading company. I have no idea what they even do anymore.

From "forestry service", I'll guess they're under state or federal authority, so "just be a squeaky wheel in local politics" is not an option.

Sadly, this is something that needs reliable, local news coverage. Doesn't much matter if that's a "for profit" newspaper magically transported from the Good Old Days of local journalism...or ongoing, ~thankless work in the trenches by a person or few with the skills to set up and run some flavor of local news web site (which could be very niche - say, forestry service stuff, parks & rec news, road closures & construction, etc.).

From my experience it's the only browser that tries to improve UX on desktop. And it seems they do care about privacy.
I agree.

I find the content Mozilla Foundation posts to be very good (their podcast, research and articles are excellent). However, when they rely on Google for funding the browser and invoke tracking into their website it does scream a bit of whitewashing. Hopefully they are able to fix that to be more morally consistent.
Wouldn't a non-Apple controlled authentication system suffice? Taking a punt here, but maybe Matrix could work?

I have absolutely no idea what you are on about, this is not as common as you seem to think. Who is expecting this of you?
It always bothered me that manufacturers use an expensive design just for the users to hide it in a case. Almost 20 years ago there were phones with exchangable bodies. That was ideal, and I wish Apple would offer something like that. An alternative could be a plastic screen on the phone, as many people are using tempered-glass protectors anyway. One you have a glass protector, it shouldn't make any difference whether the phone uses glass or plastic on its screen.
I never did either until phones got too damn big. I also started dropping them after I had kids.
This is the biggest concern for glass phones.

The coefficient of friction of gorilla glass seems negative at times, especially as so many other surfaces we're around are textureless.
UK: no CGT on your home, only investment properties. https://www.gov.uk/tax-sell-home (in some ways this is a pretty big middle class giveaway, but it also hugely simplifies things)

UK equity: smart people use an ISA wrapper https://www.gov.uk/individual-savings-accounts/how-isas-work or a pension, both of which are tax free for people with normal incomes and wealth.

Selling online: after £1000 you're a "trader" and have to pay tax. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/selling-online-an...

That takes care of almost everything. My employer paid me a bonus in RSUs and doing so was also automatically accounted for in PAYE. However, this discussion has reminded me to sell the vested stock and move it to an ISA rather than leave it in a US ETrade account, to simplify future taxes.

My wife, a UK national resident in the UK, sells ebooks on Amazon as a side gig. She has to file notice to the _US_ tax authorities for exemption, because Amazon assume everyone is American for tax purposes.
Agreed. I think just like everyone in this world, they hired aggressively when money and contracts were there and firing now that it's slowed down. Majority of their networking has been from Alcatel Lucent over which they built their own products but I feel good management can take them to the top. They don't make groundbreaking networking products but they do offer solutions people are willing to buy which telecom companies in North America would love to invest in if done right. It's sad they couldn't capitalise on Huawei ban that much.
The VM also knows about Java the language, its idioms, and language features. It’s a two way street.
Exactly. Why make more durable phones when you can make an extra $30 by selling a case, too?
I remember the N900, it was such a geeky device, with it's Maemo OS, it had the hallmarks of all the things possible from a small portable handheld, a la Steam Deck.

Nokia was just so pig-headed, why didn't they listen? I remember when Slashdot use to rave about the device, they could have developed a niche, people who were in the mobile app development biz were also fans of the device, they would have developed so many apps of their own volition.
