This section is what I am talking about. You compare two methods of writing components and then declare that the tailwind version is tightly coupled but the semantic version is loosely coupled. In programming lingo this means tailwind is bad and semantic is good.

But you don't explain why the tailwind version is tightly coupled and the semantic version is loosely coupled. And you don't do it because it is simply not the case. The coupling between html and css is not tighter or looser. It just goes in a different direction.

> The semantic version, allows you to change the design of the gallery freely. You name the component and style it externally. With Tailwind the style cannot be separated from the structure.

Same with tailwind. You update your component to update its style. With semantic you can update the css rules without touching the html, but you don't know if this css change won't break another part of your design. If you have a simple html structure like a blog with very few components, then semantic works (but so does anything really). If you have lots of components and you need to update them in order to add new features, then semantic will bring more issues.
Yes, cutting power targets of a (Desktop) Ryzen to 65W or 90W reduces performance to around 50% or 80% in some benchmarks, iirc. Likely a good tradeoff in many scenarios.

I also run an RTX 3900 GPU at 60% power for 80-90% performance. It's a noticeable decrease in requisite cooling.

The first point makes sense. But your contributions to this discussion is significantly hampered by that choice. Perhaps start a throwaway account where you can share more specific links and examples.

A solution to these would be to build a browser extension that automatically submits any such forms with bogus email addresses.

It can't easily be blocked by a captcha as that would hurt conversion rates of legitimate users.
Yeah, because white collar crimes do not exist and do not cost billions of dolars. Sorry for being sarcastic but seriously...
You can easily be poor without a working government, being rich without a working police and judicial system is much harder.
Rich people can hire private security. Poor people can't. In terms of raw numbers, law enforcement's job is to protect poor people from other poor people.

Not all developers have experienced these problems. There are people who prefer the semantic approach. I'm definitely one.
Does it really need to be low latency? It's not an FPS - so I don't think high tick rate is important. I'd rather have a wider synchronized global state and acceptable server side latency (<500ms) than instant server updates. The client can interpolate everything.
"X times less" is actually a technically meaningless statement, but colloquially would mean 1/X. There's nothing to be gained by being pedantic over that
It probably depends on your idea of what the soul/consciousness is and how it interacts/integrates with the physical world.

There's a few people interested in the idea of (simplifying a lot) "brain as an antenna receiving the consciousness signals".
That level of wealth often implies a lot of risk-taking. That's why higher rates of tax are a problem: people won't take the risk, and far fewer new things will be created.
There's a big difference though; startups are fueled by private money, from people who knew the risks.

Public sector waste comes out of all our pockets and could have been allocated to welfare, teacher salaries or infrastructure.
This is quite significant; especially this is why wealthy people from less stable or rule-of-law states tend to park their wealth in the West. There's a lot of money in London from Gulf states, Russian oligarchs, Chinese "property investors" and so on. To some extent it's a benefit, but it also prices out locals, and the distorting effects of that concentration of money start to affect the local rule-of-law as well...
Not just you. Perhaps no other software feature has caused more hours of lost productivity than Excel auto-formatting whatever to a date.

In China, for example, the word for green 綠 is used for the light

綠 is used in Japanese for the color of green tea, but they use 青 for the green light

There's also 翠 in Japanese to mean a bright green, which in Chinese also has a blue connotation (based on the color of the kingfisher who dives 淬 to catch fish)
Cool!

> Who really gets screwed by this, are middle class people with children!

The classic middle class trap: the working class are subsidised by taxes; the rich can pay enough to avoid taxes, and the middle class pay taxes.
what's interesting is that the chinese characters used for blue and green ended up being backwards between China and Japan
It's pretty easy to avoid income tax by not making any income. Works for rich and poor alike.
I think there's a good reason that trying to cheat death and meeting a grim end as a result is such a common trope in mythology. Even in ancient times I think people generally recognised the profound harm refusing to accept the inevitability of death does to a person.
WASM manages the trick with a vastly simpler specification and runtime. Not much more than a compile target for other languages.
So `<div class="gallery">` is loose coupling, because the styling is not coupled directly into the element. You can completely switch the gallery design, by switching (or overriding, or modifying) the external stylesheet.
They are spending their own money. They aren't wasting other people's hard-earned money. VCs and other funders know the risks and take them anyway. That's why upping taxation to those who take big risks and they pay off is bad - they'll just stop taking risks and things will stop improving.

No, not how dictatorships work. They usually work by keeping the supporting 2nd layer below the dictor happy and under control, which has nothing to do with country as such.

Coincidentally, things could align, but they often don't.

How do you come, that they had no distinction between blue and green?

The Greek had no word for blue, which is the reason Homer described the sky with different words. But I never heard that the sky was green-isch.

While on the other side the Greek had more similarities between green and yellow.

Thank you. I see the same across the Channel, in a country addicted to public spending and government control.

Private companies come with safeguards: competition and the need for profitability (which is just sustainability anyway). When the natural balancing forces of the market are skewed, obviously inefficiencies will arise and people will pay the price for this.
I'm not doubting that multiple languages have that aspect to it, but as far as I know that does not result in blue traffic lights. I have not heard of an instance of a blue traffic light in China to go with your Chinese example.

We had one Air app, but it got rewritten into Unity (mobile) and is now retired. No, this one is a real Flash app (MMO game), users run it in one of two ways:

- flash plugin bundled into electron, for players with old hardware, ~30% user base

- Flash transpiled into TypeScript transpiled into ES5 JS, with custom runtime based on WebGL

The whole runtime is kinda like Ruffle, but we don't support all Flash capabilities, just what was required to make app running (but it's still a lot of API surface).
It can function as a NAND gate, and anything can be built out of NAND gates. At that point it might be simpler to just use actual NAND gates though :)
I hope you're not talking about beanfield. if they go it would be very very sad
I'm not sure what your references are, so let's discuss.

At the time I was a full time flash developer, doing flex and flash on AIR.

One day, Steve Jobs made an announcement that Flash was crapware and had to die for standards (sic!)

I shook my head in disbelief. The same week, the CEO of Adobe (some shmuck) went to CNN to address what Steve Jobs had said earlier this week.

I fully expected a rebuttal, but instead, NOPE: he totally and literally threw his product under the bus, on the world stage.

Flash was dead. Its replacement was said to be coming, and yet nothing good came out.

Javascript at the time was pitiful. Typescript didn't exist yet, and MVVM in HTML wasn't a thing. We were back to web 1.0.

The article is not about "thinking semantics". It's about making leaner and faster websites, and writing less code to achieve the same thing.
The Tailwind markup vs Semantic markup example just straight sucks.

- There are useless empty elements in the tailwind example
- There are so many different breakpoints, paddings and margins in the depths of the tailwind DOM, that can not be achieved with the minified semantic markup as it is simply lacking the DOM structure necessary for it. Substituting just html > body > header > nav > a with html > body > div > div> header > div > div ... just isn't a correct comparison. It's like comparing airplanes to cars.
- There are data sttributes such as data-new-gr-c-s-check-loaded or data-headlessui-state. Also, totally unrelated to the semantic markup comparison.

This is just bloated asf.

Do you even know what semantic markup is? Maybe some people are just stubborn and try to find anything against tailwind because they just don't like it.
Billionaires shouldn't exist; to continue the crab metaphor, they're already outside the pot and it's disingenuous to suggest that we're trying to pull others down by removing the flaws that allow such extreme accumulations of wealth - that's the kind of divisive talk they're all for.

Don't carry water for them.

Those are the ones I use most frequently and these keystrokes are now deeply embedded in my muscle memory.

I finished my job search after 5 months and 1 week. After 179 applications, 22 interviews, 2 offers later, I'd say that it's one of the toughest and miserable job market someone can find into. I job search-ed even during the pandemic, and although it was very difficult, imho this one is order of magnitude worse... The Senior you are the better chance you'll have, but there is no market for JR, and I feel so bad for them because I have a few people that I care about that are in that condition and aren't able to find almost any openings.

Unfortunately even if you feel like your resume is super strong, getting a job now requires to literally excel in every single step of the interview and having the luck of having the team feeling you as a perfect fit for the team. Even a single meh would mean instant rejection. There are literally too many great people in job search and companies aren't certainly in a rush to close their openings.

My perception, and my network seems to confirm this as well, is also that the rate of new opening has slowed down significantly, which means that things are getting harder. I really hope that the market will recover soon for everyone.

Why not allow me to sell at the price the government insists it is valued at?

Many people that live in locations with property tax would very happily sell their property at the "assessed" value rather than sell on the open market for a fraction of that price.

Obviously that is before we get into the various ways to obscure ownership of trivial things like planes and yachts that is already done for various reasons.
A fun aside: Cooler Screens, the company making these, used to be the CEO of Walgreens, and Walgreens is their only "whale" customer.

Walgreens began to sour on the idea of the idea of these screens, and the current CEO basically cancelled the whole deal when he came in, calling them ugly, costly and ineffective.

Cooler Screens has been forced to take back many of the screens, which are custom made to the size of the Walgreens coolers, and cannot be resold of reused without getting new coolers to go with them.

Cooler Screens is suing Walgreens over this, but this is very much looking like a failed dystopian experiment.

Well, I think the phrasing does a lot.

Your post sounds like you deal in absolutes rather than exposing an opinion.
That's interesting.

I'd like to see how the "real tax rate" for each bracket has changed over time, if there were any way to arrive at such a number. It'd be difficult to fairly account for all the accounting tricks/loopholes, subsidies, and quid-pro-quo to arrive at some net burden comparable between time periods.
> It's important to remember that we are not encrypting the text here.

Thank you for emphasizing this. Many junior devs have been bitten by not being told early enough the difference between encryption (requires a secret to be reversed), hashing (cannot be reversed) and encoding (can always be trivially reversed).

Also good to know that while the output looks random, it follows the same entropy as the input. Ie: don't base64 encode your password to make it stronger.

Remaining quiet around people joking about genocide would follow me around in my conscience. Also fearing downvotes is like an admission to defeat. Besides - all it took for the patriots to shit up the place was one lie: "I saw an analysis recently that suggested a nuclear war between the west and Russia would no longer end in mutually assured destruction." The lie is now the most upvoted comment in this thread.

At the time of writing, this search will provide a top result saying "Help is available" and giving information about your country's crisis hotline.

"1236 800", "1236 + 800", etc. also do it, but 1236800 does not. The two numbers have to be separated and in that order.

It'd be interesting to know why.
I find it interesting that the definition of a linux distribution is a package manager and a repository.

He does have valid points though - the package managers really make it hard to do things from source.

It might be nice to make modifying or compiling a first-order package-manager operation. Personally I've found it clumsy to do with apt or pacman.

Maybe he needs to come up with a better package manager and make a distro.
Is "Semantic CSS" just... CSS? There's no such thing as "Semantic CSS". There is Semantic HTML. I suppose there is CSS for Semantic HTML.

I've read the article and can't figure out if this is comparing the CSS framework Semantic UI to Tailwind?

If we're comparing CSS to a CSS framework, it seems fairly obvious to me that it's going to be bigger in size, and slower to load, and that the amount of code required to be generic (rather than totally specific) would be larger too.
Arguably, this is the worst of both worlds. In a React world, you'd have a <Button variant="primary"> component for this.

By using @apply excessively, now you have to deal with class names and the resulting messy conflicts, and yet you still can't/don't write plain CSS and harness its full power.

@apply is one of Tailwind's worst features, imo.
China has an uncanning ability to shot herself in the knee. Best example would be the fleed of Zheng He.

"He was buried at sea, and the fleet turned back to China. Soon after, the emperor, supported by Confucian officials, ordered the ships to be burned and outlawed most maritime trade. In what was a purely political move, all official records of the voyages were systematically destroyed."

This fleet was light-years ahead of what Columbus had available. But it was Europe who conquered the world and colonized the so called new world, not China.

Corporate welfare (socialism for the rich, capitalism for the poor) is widespread and based on the mythical infallibility of trickle down economics. To add to your list: when a company wants to build a new factory or office, often the tax payer funded local government will subside the building of that or offer long term tax breaks. True capitalism would be that the company funds it all themselves and if they can't afford it, they're not strong enough. Instead they have officials fighting over crumbs whilst the company rakes in massive profits.
Writing and maintaining clear concise CSS for a large application requires serious effort. It usually fails fast as the design grows and changes and a larger team tries to work on the codebase.

This falls down to the old "it depends" slogan. Tailwind is a great way to scale a your css with a larger codebase / team while semantic CSS will give you a smaller tighter stylesheet and cleaner html for that single handcoded landingpage or blog.

Also the download cost of tailwind falls as the size of the app grows and each utilityclass is used in more contexts.
Amazing idea. It would be nice to have a filter by language.
