You are possibly right. But I really think the "or" form is genuinely easier to understand, even more so if you have less education in formal logic.

You might learn "x => y" in school (I didn't!) but if you did it was probably in the context of making implication (modus ponens). You are told p=>q, and then later you also find that p is true, so you can deduce that q is true. That's easy enough.

But figuring out whether p=>q is true is tricker (intuitively). Say someObj is falsey - is "someObj => someObj.data" true? Well, it is, because an implication p=>q is always true if p is not true e.g. "if normal dice rolls a 7 then the weather is rainy" is true because a normal dice never rolls a 7. Is that intuitively obvious for everyone? I can't believe it.

Is "!someObj || someObj.data" true if someObj is falsey? That is really easy in comparison - maybe not everyone will just see it at a glance, but you just check the two subexpressions one at a time, and immediately notice that "!someObj" is true. (What about if it's truethy? Also easy - the first subexpression is false, so you move on to the second one - it's only true if "someObj.data" is truethy.)
Nah; it was an army recruitment stunt, not like a monument or whatever. People don't usually leave markers for temporary marketing stunts like this.
Ask HN: US Trademark Registration Services
Hey all

I'm an Aussie and I need to trademark my startup name in the US. I'm filing the trademark here in the next day or so and don't have 7 months to wait to lodge via the Madrid System so I will need to engage with either a US-based attorney or trademark registration service.

Can anyone recommend services they've been happy with? I have Trademark Engine on my radar as it's cheap ($99 USD + USPTO fees) and seems well reviewed so I'm keen to hear anything first hand about them.
Without an MMU, swapping to disk becomes a sizeable challenge. I don't think WASM (or Java, or any other kind of VM) should assume it has infinite physical resources of any kind, but am not surprised that JS folk are so far away from hardware they will sometimes forget how computers actually work...
this slogan is meaningless. economic growth is pretty meaningful and material for me - it means a possibility of retirement for me, a world with jobs, comfort and prosperity for my children. there are plenty of countries on this earth that will let you in to experience their lack of economic growth if you want to see what the alternative is like
Hey, I'm Marvin, author of the article. If you have any questions or suggestions, please let me know :)
AFAIK in China there is no real 'dictatorship' related to economics, companies...

The government listens carefully to top bosses describing in which way it can help them. The major challenge is for them to align their various plans.

The government also acts as a referee, crushing quarrels they cannot tackle themselves, in a brutal way (this may be an approach adopted in order to entice them into rather solving it by themselves, letting the referee act as a last resort).

As a Chinese (entrepreneur or not) if you stay away from politics and, as a big fish boss, play by those "let's cooperate in order for the gov to help all of us" rules I doubt the gov will annoy you.

> imprisoning your top entrepreneurs

Jack Ma (Alibaba) was AFAIK playing at best solo, and at worse against most other entrepreneurs in his sector, and didn't abide to numerous warnings. Then he directly publicly and harshly criticized the financial sector, and announced that his company will become more and more of a direct competitor for banks. The gov then took care of his case.

I like J. Ma, however it seems to me that his style, probably forged through his personal history, isn't compatible with the way things are done in China.

Was another top entrepreneur imprisoned?

This approach is way more efficient than my own government (the European Union and France's government) way: acting as the boss of bosses by devising its own strategy with at best vague (and often neglected) inputs from experts (most chosen among friends or lobbyists) then burning huge amounts of money into void projects (often nurturing cronies), taxing everything in sight, promulgating laws framing any new thing...
I think you're misreading that a bit (it is confusingly written).

> During the French Revolution, wearing dress associated with the royalist Ancien Régime made the wearer a target for the Jacobins. Working-class men of the era, many of whom were Revolutionaries, came to be known as sans-culottes because they could not afford silk breeches and wore less expensive pantaloons instead

_Prior_ to the revolution, the Jacobins (who were largely bourgeoisie) would have been wearing that dress, distinguishing themselves from the working class (who _didn't_ wear the stockings). The revolutionary period is being used to illustrate a change here, not the norm.
Syphilis may have originated in the Americas.
This is all covered in the post.
It used to seem obvious that infinite economic growth on a finite planet was impossible.

But after watching the money-printing and inflation of the last few years, maybe the numbers really can keep on rising forever even if meaningful economic activity doesn't increase.
Scalability and specificity.

1) You can absolutely not be sure you would not later want to use something as generic as nav in a different context. Being heavy handed with element selectors is a solid foot gun for scaling css.

2) Different selectors produce different specificity in css. To not write selectors that will later be overwritten, opting for class selectors is often a good idea.
I’m genuinely curious about this one - what do you mean? How is what you want different from pressing delete?
"The EMFA (European Media Freedom Act) is "intended to help a pluralistic media landscape", but also contains problematic provisions, e.g. a requirement for online platforms to warn "media providers, who can be media outlets but also individuals, such as journalists [...] ahead of moderating their content and to give them a fast-track channel to contest decisions. Some lawmakers even suggest that online platforms be prohibited from deleting content by media providers before the provider has had a chance to reply. All this is highly problematic, seeing that disinformation is sometimes produced by media providers."

I'm sure some authorities in some countries will be pleased, i.e. state-controlled or otherwise non-independent media will be the "arbiter of truth".
Add a ' prefix to them so they are treated as text. We've had problems with many-digit integers being converted to floating point approximations instead.
> Now, midori (green) is a type of ao ("grue"), and..

It isn't. TFA is vague on this, but in modern usage "ao" just means blue. There are a bunch of set phrases where it refers to various other cool colors, but to a modern listener "ao" on its own isn't a category including all those colors, it just means blue.
If they enable thicker insulation, it’s possible this may actually save power. Thas the only I can think for doing this.
Yeah, power-performance is a big one. The entire human brain runs at about 12 watts. Human neurons are several orders of magnitude more efficient for neural computing than anything that's been dreamt up in silicon. That might not always be the case, but I imagine there are still another several orders of magnitude at least that artificial neurons might fill as this technology evolves.

Imagine something like a Raspberry Pi with a neural network mounted on it that is significantly more powerful than an h100.
The 'probably not' bit of your reasoning is self serving.

There are exactly four <nav> elements on the front page. The ".nav" class is given for the master navigation elements in the page header and footer. class="master nav" and class="sub nav" respectively. Maybe not the best, but something I am personally accustomed to. Semantic CSS allows you to create a custom naming system.
At last.

I hope anybody who is thinking of implementing a 'computer knows best' feature with ML reflects on how annoying this feature has been over the years.
I wonder how many levels deep the optimum is, or how a news site could be constructed that filtered journalists based on some quiz or something... Probably most of what we read is attributed or presented out of context. But if we read the sources of those, we probably sometimes get closer to some vestige of objectivity. We probably never get to the truth, but maybe at level 3 or 4 we are at least more informed than probably 90% or more of the world. I mean, even the original sources are probably usually misinformed. Maybe that's all that reality is: a labyrinth of misinformation, with an exit ... somewhere... maybe it's even a labyrinth we loved, and chose to play, perhaps not realizing the odds or implications.
> Being more hesitant about breaking changes as a industry

... would lead to even more outrage, because we tried that in the past. And the result were "rotting libraries", that became unmaintainable, incomprehensible, and riddled with hard to track and harder to fix bugs, because they had to drag along code that was often more than a decade old, kicking and screaming, just so libadbandonedsincebronzeage.so wouldn't have to issue an update.

So no, we should have breaking changes.

We should keep libraries vital and get rid of old code. We shouldn't drag along stuff just because we can. We have established procedures to deal with this, and with good reason.

Isn't Chinese history the elephant in the room here?

IMHO most Chinese citizens remember that whenever they fight each other (civil war...) disasters happen, and therefore the most important mission of the government is to squash any growing quarrel. Everything else is ancillary.
Major US cities being destroyed is pretty bad but not MAD bad. The rest of the US will still be around long enough to decimate Russia or China. MAD means both sides get wiped out completley not some horrible killing of 50mil people happened.

I.E.: if they fire first, firing back does not mean everyone dies.
I don't expect it to make its investors money because most VC-style startups don't make money and also because it seems to me to be kind of a dumb idea for a few reasons.

1)Maybe I'm wrong but I don't think their IP has any kind of protectable moat. I really can't see that patent surviving any sort of challenge. So if tehy figure out a business model that works it will get cloned cheaper.

2)It's an actuarial fact that people overpay for insurance relative to expectation but here they are essentially selling a partial mitigation for a very high severity very low probability event[1]. So the expectation is very low and is highly subject to model calibration error. Potential customers are not going to value this well and I don't see people paying them enough to stay in business.

I could easily be wrong about both of those things.

I know about selling the mission "Making the world a better place with extensible mobile, social, local middleware APIs" etc as I think the TV show "Silicon Valley" parodied it. Just in this case I dont' really see either the mission or the commercial reality making much sense.

It's interesting that the board of advisors has Ben "I'm gonna bring the mammoth back to life" Lamm and David "Make the statue of Liberty disappear" Copperfield on it. So they've got Barnum and Bailey going for them at least.

[1] "I'm selling you a backup that would survive even if humanity gets wiped out" isn't a business proposition. Noone cares about what their backups do under those circumstances so they won't pay for it.
To me you are adding complexity. Back to finding which styles are cascading over another.

I think my comment about lend lease isn't controversial. From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lend-Lease :

"According to the Russian historian Boris Vadimovich Sokolov, Lend-Lease had a crucial role in winning the war:

On the whole the following conclusion can be drawn: that without these Western shipments under Lend-Lease the Soviet Union not only would not have been able to win the Great Patriotic War, it would not have been able even to oppose the German invaders, since it could not itself produce sufficient quantities of arms and military equipment or adequate supplies of fuel and ammunition. The Soviet authorities were well aware of this dependency on Lend-Lease. Thus, Stalin told Harry Hopkins [FDR's emissary to Moscow in July 1941] that the U.S.S.R. could not match Germany's might as an occupier of Europe and its resources."

So I assume I am getting downvoted because I said the Russian were brave in WWII? That is hard to deny, isn't it? Lots of German accounts praise the near suicidal bravery of Russian soldiers in WWII[1]. But I get that isn't a very popular thing to say given the monstrous war crimes that the Russian state is currently committing.

[1]Admitedly some of this bravery may have been due to NKVD stationed behind them with orders to shoot retreaters.

I'm wondering how your two quotes "security of our customers is of the utmost importance to us" and "we believed there was something" fit together given that the issue stayed open for three years?

So for three years you believed there was something, yet you didn't invest sufficient resources to reproduce and/or understand the issue, while at the same time, all these three years security was of utmost importance?

The first thing that comes to mind when looking at this is the fragility of seemingly robust civilizations. We can only imagine a lifetime, or fractions thereof. Much of the world seems unchanging and we assume that our society is robust. Constant. It cannot perish.

Yet every great civilization on before us has perished.

It isn't that I think our cities will disappear, and with them, the people who live in them. But we take our stability and robustness for granted. We take democracy for granted. Even as it is eroding before our very eyes.

In the entire world, democracy is in retreat. Totalitarianism is on the rise. New generations of politicians join politics, not to accomplish results, but to have polarising arguments, spout ideology and division, and to take selfies in front of the resulting chaos.

All the best bits of the world I grew up in are lesser now.

The whole of life is built on inefficiency. Earth is just a filter for slowing down the diffusion of star energy from the Sun and step it through ecosystems complexity before it being lost to the vacuum. I have no idea why people can be so obsessed with order, control and efficiency when life itself is just the interval of disorder, freedom and delay in energy dissipation.

There was no war declared then. The actions were identical to Mexican immigrants coming over and going on murdering spees here. Would you not consider that an example of crime that should be accounted for?

And the falseness of that distinction is exactly my point. Nobody watches their baby get murdered and says "Well at least it was at the hands of a government agent! My country is still a very safe place to live!". Yet if you were to believe those stats that's exactly what they're claiming: deaths at the hands of government agents "don't count" when considering the safety of an area.
> I am very keen for levels of taxation (and the closing of all the loopholes) that would force billionaires to liquidate significant percentages of their assets to pay taxes as I think it will encourage them to work a bit harder. After all if they managed to become a billionaire once they must be very clever, right?

Even almost all their "assets" are stocks in the companies they created? Would the idea be that the founders of these companies should lose control over them?

The issue of this direction is if you need to update the markup, you will need to update the css, which is hard and risky because of css global scoping.

If you're really talking about universal rights in the modern sense, that really didn't happen in the US until the 1960's in practice (unless you were white and had the correct chromosomes). Women couldn't vote until the early 20th century, and you could not marry interracially in some states until the 1960's.
Or worse, it breaks at a completely different site you didn’t even touch, won’t notice and might also pass through manual testing (if that’s even a thing at your place), and end up in prod. Sure, there are AI-based testing tools that check for frontend changes, but let’s be honest, they are very rarely used, if at all.
Not mentioned in the article:

- Semantic version is not responsive (sure it looks ok but isn't optimised)

- Tailwind version has 13 inlined SVG icons (on the homepage) which increase DOM size (Semantic version has none)

- Tailwind version uses optimised markup for SEO purposes which leads to increased DOM size (<ul> list for navigation; not wrapping entire article summary in an anchor; using <dl/dt/dd> structure in work section)

This is clearly not comparing apples with apples when it comes to semantic HTML+CSS vs Tailwind.

However, most egregiously, the author goes on to make a bunch of comparisons between the Next.js tailwindui marketing site and his Nuejs-generated template for the argument that "Tailwind is bad for performance". This is deliberately misleading.

There are plenty of valid criticisms of Tailwind but it's hard not to look at this article as anything but a puff piece for the author's framework rather than a serious comparison of two approaches to building UIs.

> We see toady most men chooses clothes based on quality and utility.

Eh, no. They choose them based on fashion; it's just that the fashion has changed (and continues to change; suits are generally in decline, say, and I suspect covid has dealt a mortal blow to the tie).
The CCP has some pretty direct influence on and role in large corporations. They idea of them as just some referee or planner is in error.

Copy/pasting directly from the article, because you have reworded my claims. Here's what I mean exactly:

You can move faster with Tailwind. But only when:

1. You are comparing Tailwind with your earlier, badly structured CSS or you are completely new to CSS development.

2. You don’t care about building reusable modules for later use. That is: you are not naming things that repeat.

> Men seems to care about uniforms, I think that is the primary way men care about looks. The name "uniform" explains why all suits looks the same, its because they are a uniform.

But most men don't wear suits anymore, or any sort of uniform. You seem to be trying to read this as something _innate_, but it is clearly fashion.
If you really want to compare code snippet sizes, you must offer the same functionality. Otherwise, the comparison is meaningless.

You did the exact same thing before when you compared the Headless UI combobox with your nue.js implementation. Offering fewer features will result in less code. Shocker.

Besides, I don't really care for these comparisons. If something is 2x longer code but more maintainable, it is 100% worth it. Just because something is short doesn't make it better.
