I don't know, doesn't read like a joke exaggeration to me.

I think the most likely thing is that he's confused about firmware blobs and is mixing things up.

He probably never looked much at Linux and just heard a few things here and there. He was at Microsoft during the Balmer "Linux is cancer" and "get the facts" era, so that probably coloured his view a bit.

That said, I agree you shouldn't attach too much meaning to a singular comment like this. Maybe he was joking after all, or maybe he was just wrong. We're all wrong sometimes, and that's okay.

Edit: he seems to have an entire "Linux vs Windows Round 1: Open Source vs Proprietary" video, but I didn't watch it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9ZADRy5W0c
Interesting opinion, could you please elaborate how tech companies increases cost of housing?
Is comparing the markup of an html page with all the style in html attributes, to an html page which imports style from a CSS file (which is not displayed) a fair comparison?

Yes. There's a very odd phenomenon where both sides seem to think there can be only one winner, rather than a lengthy period of co-existence.
Worse, it's an ad delivery platform.
It's not fully there, but at least it allows you resize the import dialog.
You claim that you can only move faster with Tailwind when one of these is true: when you don't care about 'badly structured' CSS, or when you are completely new to CSS, or when you don't care about reusable modules.

I care very much about the structure of the CSS files I generate with Tailwind. I have been writing CSS for over 20 years. And I care very much about reusable modules – before good composable component systems came along, CSS classes were the best solution for this, but not any more imo. And I can certainly move faster with Tailwind in most situations.

Sorry for the negativity btw, I don't want to discourage people posting about their experiences with a tool. I just doubt you have really given Tailwind a fair trial. You're obviously a seasoned front ender who understands CSS deeply, but I don't believe you have understood Tailwind properly before coming to your conclusions about it.
You gotta give it to Parisians that they stand their ground on the car vs others battle.

One the factor that made it easier to accept Paris closing a bunch of streets to cars was that it was already an utter chaos and cars where crawling at peak hours. Biking was an actual fast option, and people sure did get the message.
It looks like they are rolling it out in stages. I have Excel for Mac on two devices. One has it already, the other one not yet. It's also marked as "BETA". On macOS you can find it in Preferences and then in the "Edit" category.

I'm glad they finally introduced this option. Unfortunately the previous behavior is still the default. If someone sends you data and does not know about this, your data will still be subject to the old conversion rules.
thos os the excel version, displayed under file->account (i had the same issue)
Thanks! Semantic CSS describes an elements meaning clearly: like <form> , <table>, or <div class="gallery">. Tailwind is non-semantic because you cannot say what the element does, like for example:

<a className="group mb-8 flex h-10 w-10 items-center justify-center rounded-full bg-white shadow-md shadow-zinc-80

The links are now fixed. Thanks!
Depends on the period, but you're probably generally talking upper middle class to upper class (and to some extent their domestic servants). The working and agricultural class simply couldn't afford fashion.

If you read Samuel Pepys' Diary, from the mid-17th century (highly recommended; it's a fascinating view into the surprisingly familiar/alien world of the past), you'll notice that as Sam goes from a middle-class civil servant to the upper-middle-class (largely through taking bribes, as was the fashion at the time), he starts going on more and more about fabrics.
If you weren’t conscious when asleep, how do you explain dreams and memories?

I’ve read about high level meditators who were “aware” they were asleep too. Not sure why they’d make this up.
This works until you try have to use Excel localized in languages other than English, since Microsoft thought having localized shortcuts was a good idea.
> Flash wasn't particularly more unreliable or awful than browsers were.

Citation needed. Saying that because Flash was widely touted as a significant contributor to browser crashes.

Though, looking for a citation for that myself just now... all of the search results I'm getting back are just an endless sea of "Flash crashed my browser" type of things instead. :/
IIRC, some version of Adobe Creative Suite.
Ah, sweet. Man-made horrors beyond my comprehension.

Hopefully this will lead to brain implants that can help with solving a bunch of brain issues, and not to what we're all thinking of.
The link is wrong (to something about "empathy"), instead https://www.windowscentral.com/microsoft/microsoft-ceo-satya...
Also good to sprinkle in some randomness.
>I think one challenge is that the variable names in Excel (B3, B2-10 for a list) are not easily converted to descriptive names.

It takes some getting used to, but you can pretty easily create a named range for an individual cell by modifying the value immediately left of the formula bar. You can also setup a table to hold data (insert -> table).

Tables can be renamed and allow formulas like =sum(tbl_salaries[salary]).

With named ranges, your formula can look like =purchase_price*sales_tax

Nel mondo della tecnologia, l'attesa per l'aggiornamento delle funzionalità di Windows è sempre un momento emozionante. E ora, sembra che Microsoft stia per soddisfare le aspettative con il prossimo rilascio di Windows 11 23H2, noto anche come Sun Valley 3. In una recente scoperta, sono stati individuati i link per il download dell'ISO di Windows 11 23H2, segnalando che il rilascio generale (GA) è ormai alle porte.
Windows 11 23H2: Le Anticipazioni

A luglio, Microsoft ha svelato pubblicamente la versione 23H2 di Windows 11, insieme all'annuncio che i requisiti di sistema rimarranno invariati. Questo ha generato molte aspettative tra gli utenti, ma una certa confusione è sorta quando Microsoft ha pianificato l'aggiornamento per una data diversa da quella prevista. Tuttavia, alcune delle nuove funzionalità di Windows 11 23H2 sono state introdotte in anticipo con l'aggiornamento Moment 4, come avevamo segnalato all'inizio di settembre.

Inoltre, l'azienda ha lavorato per garantire la compatibilità dei sistemi, annunciando il programma di certificazione Windows Hardware Compatibility Program (WHCP) per Windows 11 23H2. Questo è un passo importante per assicurare che i dispositivi esistenti possano essere aggiornati senza problemi.
Link per il Download ISO

La notizia più recente che ha suscitato l'interesse degli appassionati di Windows è l'individuazione dei link per il download dell'ISO di Windows 11 23H2 e delle edizioni Home China di Windows 11 23H2. Sebbene i link non siano ancora attivi, la loro presenza suggerisce che il rilascio GA dell'aggiornamento delle funzionalità è imminente. Questo è un segnale positivo per coloro che sono ansiosi di sperimentare le nuove funzionalità e le migliorie in arrivo.
File Explorer Migliorato

Una delle aspettative più grandi tra gli utenti di Windows è una migliore esperienza con File Explorer, e sembra che Microsoft stia facendo progressi in questa direzione. L'ultima versione Dev ha ricevuto ulteriori miglioramenti delle prestazioni di File Explorer, che dovrebbero tradursi in un'esperienza più veloce e fluida per gli utenti.

In conclusione, il rilascio imminente di Windows 11 23H2 è una notizia emozionante per gli appassionati di Windows. Con nuove funzionalità in arrivo e migliorie delle prestazioni, il futuro sembra brillante per il sistema operativo di Microsoft. Restate sintonizzati per ulteriori aggiornamenti sul rilascio ufficiale e le nuove funzionalità di Windows 11 23H2.
Off topic, but is anyone working for Adobe here that has access to the Adobe Fastly account? If so, you should probably look into the Fastly config settings:

So your reasoning is "elites have always been more educated then average, so standard education cannot have had an effect in average literacy"? It is far more reasonable (and verifiable) to conclude that widespread standard education is more than just correlated with higher average rates of literacy.
This is really interesting.

Could you explain more about your lockless queues?

I recently wrote a lockfree ringbuffer inspired by LMAX Disruptor but it is only thread safe 1-thread to 1 thread. SCSP. It has latency between threads on a 1.1ghz Intel NUC of 80-200 nanoseconds.

I have ported Alexander Krizhanovsky's ringbuffer to C but I haven't benchmarked it.

There is basically nothing that would net improve UX here.

Amazing that they managed to raise millions.
I'm frustrated with repeated attempts to introduce yet another final tax on the rich, while the humdrum ones that most people pay are quietly falling by the wayside.

I don't want the ultra rich to pay a wealth tax, that no doubt they can avoid in some new way. Maybe take out loans, or deflate their assets in some another way. I want their income to be recognised and taxed. VAT paid. And so on...
Agreed, even if you do a rewrite - you'd still want to use tailwind so you can re-use some of the elements you already built
>but it wasn’t made by the BBC

You are right. My mistake.
> For who is that innovation?

The CCP answer is that it's for the state. Policing benefits from enhanced data collection. Social media allows them to control and monitor domestic discourse. Consumer electronics exports create vast amounts of foreign exchange and very sticky attachments to international supply chains.
I mean, we've had a similar transition recently, with similar holdouts. See hats; they were basically essential wear in the west for men, from working class up, at the start of the 20th century; by the end, hats as male formal-wear were largely seen as pretty eccentric.

In the case of wigs, there were holdouts; barristers and judges in the former British empire have in many cases only really started abandoning them over the last two decades.
Good of a platform to stand up for their users against DMCA abuse. Obviously Shopify relies on credibility if they are to handle the business transactions of their customers, so it is a smart move. Though it may be costly for them. Wish certain other platforms would do the same, if not for every bogus claim, then at least to set a precedent.
I like the idea of suggestive tooltips.
I really though you were going to say "Chat-GPT detected" when quoting that message.
Exactly. Using tailwind in your views in a backend framework such as Rails/Laravel means you can build pages extremely quickly.
Cool channel, much of it over my head, thanks.

> The semantic version is smaller because it utilizes high-level, semantic components like .nav

What is the purpose of writing <nav class=".nav"> if you can just write <nav>? There seems to be only one navigation element on that page, and the class isn't adding anything that is not already expressed by the tag name.

Other people have covered the linguistic aspect enough so no need for me to rehash it, but, the picture in that article is far more blue than any traffic light I've seen in Tokyo in my months there. If I had to describe them with a single word, I'd choose green without hesitation - they just have a bit of a blue tinge to them.

Some example photos from google image that look closest to what I've seen:

I've not really left Kantō so maybe they are more likely to be more prominently blue elsewhere? Kansai and Hokkaidō google image searches show (mostly) green traffic lights too.
My first question there is...could they do the same work with fewer calls?
Interesting how introducing new pathogens works. Does anyone know why the opposite didn't happen? Why didn't the European colonizers die to American diseases?
>Similarly, I haven't seen a pattern where good CSS authors do not like Tailwind.

well I haven't used Tailwind but from the examples I've seen I would hate it, and from what I can see I would hate it for the same reason that I hate all CSS abstractions I've worked with - because they limit what I can do with CSS in the interest of making it easier for other people who are not that good with CSS to get their work done OR it will require me to do things in a particular way when I believe I know a far better way of doing them.

Now I'm not arguing I am a good CSS author, I do lack some things (like a good feel for design imperfections so I don't notice when something is off) but I am saying I am generally familiar with this behavior in devs regarding other technologies, if one is sufficiently good with a technology one dislikes restraints placed on usage by some external library.

This is why people always comment "This would be so easy if we weren't using {X} technology on top of our code" because they generally are comfortable using the lower layer that the higher layer is now controlling and preventing them from doing their work in what they see as the best way to do it.

So, all that said, I would expect that if Good CSS authors were forced to use Tailwind they would not like it. The assertion to the contrary is extremely surprising and I just don't believe it without some extremely surprising proof to back it up.
Tailwind example indeed does more, but only slightly. Would increase the size of CSS by 1-3%. The semantic version has clearly enough to prove the point the article attempts to make: significantly less code is needed and the resulting site is leaner & faster.

I think it depends on how you set your cache? If it’s not configured to re-check with the server it may be much faster.

Then again, for 3KB the overhead of doing a cache check after parsing the HTML for the first time and then rendering it again may already be too much :)
I think the problem with the moon as a storage location is getting the archive to the moon in good shape and then retrieving it to recover the knowledge post whatever cataclysm caused all the primary sources to be lost. On their website they even say the archive is "believed to be on the surface of the moon". So maybe they have saved human knowledge and maybe they haven't and somehow post apocalypse people just have to figure out how to get to the moon and maybe it will be there waiting for them.

Doesn't seem tremendously reassuring.
Interesting. But is that mass really that significant compared to the rest of the craft and cargo?

If it is, would it make sense to use the Shuttle (or something like it) to ferry cargo to and from orbit, and then use a "space tug" to transport it to the Moon without the extra mass of the Shuttle?

From what I read, the main problem with the Shuttle was the requirement of bringing cargo back to Earth, intact: this prevented using small, simple capsules, with disposable rocket stages like on Saturn V (or now with SpaceX, a reusable lower stage). This required a big Shuttle craft that was horrifically expensive to both build and to maintain, and we no longer use the Shuttle because they finally figured that out. However, in an alternate timeline with significant facilities on the Moon, they'll probably want to, for instance, manufacture stuff there with the low-g environment and ship it back to Earth, which would require some way of transporting such cargo safely through re-entry. Just sticking it in a disposable capsule might not be sufficient.
I've seen more than a few kimchi fridges in use, and haven't seen one used for general purpose storage. Kimchi fridges, especially the chest type, are designed to be efficiently filled with uniform-sized containers, which would be very inefficient for random groceries and leftovers.

As far as being "an essential household fixture in most Korean homes," maybe I travel in the wrong circles, but I don' recall seeing them in many homes of the under-50s.
> Wealth inequality is currently a huge problem in the world

This is a problematic statement. Wealth inequality is not a huge problem. If we removed all the billionaires, people who are currently starving or unable to get clean water would still be in the same situation. Getting the base level of human condition up is the important thing, and it generally occurs much more in systems that are not trying to crush people who create vast amounts of value.

> as far as I can see any kind of arguments against tackling it such as 'we'll miss out on innovation' are capitalist propaganda. This is why it would be good to have accurate historical data to respond to these kind of arguments.

I don't see why this is the case. If you let people take more risks and try more things, with commensurate value exchange to the value they provide, then more things will appear. That's just normal.

You can see it in the small even - if teams are allowed to fail and succeed by taking risks, then they will take some risks. If they are never rewarded for succeeding, or even punished for succeeding, then they will never try.

Sorry, as much as you believe this it's just not true.

Sure, some people are radicalised, but a large part of that radicalisation is a reaction to a perceived equal radicalisation on the $otherSide.

You'll notice that people get divided on things that just "become political" out of nowhere.

Wearing a mask for a really recent example, there was a very small window of time before any politician or media outlet said anything other than "we don't know everything" about the pandemic. In that time window it was pretty clear that most people just do what is needed.

You don't need a formal conspiracy when incentives align though, so as much as you paint it as a "shadowy elite" it's probably just a few people who know that they need to stoke a culture war and a lot of people who will get rich off of outrage bait and creating a cultural moat that makes them the voice of a cultural "side" are more opportunistic and don't particularly care all that much about furthering a particular agenda.

If you actually have time to have a conversation with someone you deeply disagree with you tend to find out pretty quickly that there's a seriously large amount in common and it's the distance to each other culturally that causes a larger rift than anything innate.
It's a shame that he glosses over 3" disks. They were widely used in the UK of all places throughout the 1980s because Amstrad selected them for their Z80-based office systems. I'd love to know what cheap deal Alan Sugar got with Hitachi to offload old stock that made this happen.

Stampy's Lovely World: 1.7M say farewell to YouTube series
The tooling around CSS has evolved quite a bit since we started the "one-rule-one-class" approach to styling (Bootstrap released in 2011.) When the best web frameworks can deal with attributes, but not with CSS rules, it makes sense that's where we go.

But then you see a fork in the ecosystem, where some continue working on the semantical side, and some just want "Bootstrap, but with X and Y, so I can finish my project". I think the article argues against continuing down this latter branch.

With CSS preprocessors, variables, media queries, calc(), transitions, animations, layers, no IE, etc. we're in a very different position today. Everyone's now used to using JS bundlers, i.e. a build step. Webpack was released in 2014. Accepting that source and distribution are separate makes it much easier to motivate going for a preprocessor and being able to write nice CSS.
You're conflating the internal (lack of) logic from the perspective of the person employed in a bullshit job with the external logic for the existence of this position. Businesses hire people for multitude economically sound reasons and very often from the perspective of the person the job is utterly meaningless except for providing them with a paycheck. That leads to psychic pain. The economic logic is there and moving the needle but the social, cultural, psychological logic is lacking. That is the problem. I think the theory is sound: that disconnect between economic logic and other levels of meaning is at the source of the problem. There's no grounds to dismiss it by reducing all logic to economic logic.
