Yeah honestly I know I’m capable of asking those kinds of questions, but I’ve been realizing lately that I just don’t want to. I want other people to figure their shit out first, then come to me when it’s ready to be built.
> However, if you’re anything like us, even a simple straight line drawn with a mouse or a trackpad can end up looking like a path trod by a tipsy squirrel. Don’t even get us started on circles and rectangles.

But who needs to draw shapes with their mouse in Canva? Years ago, Miro had a feature that converted your flailing attempts at drawing a star with a mouse into a geometrically precise star (or circle, or triangle, or whatever). I thought it was super cool, but then I never, ever needed to use it. I never need to do line drawing with my mouse: if I'm making diagrams, I just use pre-made shapes, which are faster. If I am making icons, I use a whole different process centered around Boolean operations and nudging points and the Pen tool—and I am probably using a dedicated program, like Illustrator, to do it. And if I am actually illustrating something (rarer these days than in times past) I have a tablet I will pull out. I am sure the tech here is cool, but what's the use case?
My wife and I spent a week in New England and were enchanted with New Hampshire and Vermont. We gave zillow a quick look, had a hearty guffaw, and crossed that off the list of possibilities.
Both, probably.

If you can teach more people how to write web apps, that skill becomes less valuable.
I am more a fan of the augmented style because it doesn't entrap you in dev lock-in to platforms.

The problem with frameworks, especially web frameworks, is they reimplement many items that are standard now (shadowdom, components, storage, templating, base libraries, class/async, network/realtime etc).

DOM rendering speeds have been improved due to virtualdom but is no longer needed with shadowdom.

The web standards of today are amazing and take away the need for frameworks today: from templating to html templates [1], vanilla javascript with classes [2] and async [3] and better api access like fetch [4] and browser support for vdom with shadow dom [5], components with WebComponents [6][7], css now with lots of additions like variables [8] transitions[9]/animations[10], flex and media queries, canvas/svg/etc for interactivity, and so much more. There is little need to use frameworks except to sell books and conferences and keep developers locked in.

React for instance jumped ahead and front ran WebComponents and ShadowDOM, those are both part of the browser and standards now. The killer feature phase of React is over.

If you like the component style of other frameworks but want to use Web Components, Google Lit is quite nice. [11]

Google Lit is like a combination of HTML Web Components and React/Vue style components. The great part is it is build on Web Components underneath.

For those not in the know: DFT = Density Functional Theory
I've definitely found that my attention span has shortened, but I wonder if I shouldn't attribute at least some of that to my age (50 now). I could concentrate a lot longer when I was younger, maybe it's normal to lose some ability to concentrate like losing eyesight and hearing?
Yeah I even feel lonely back home with wife and kid.

It's mostly about people don't have same set of values and I'm fine with that.
Well, based on a quick Google, there are approximately 10^186 Planck-length volumes in the known universe. So 10^241 is not physical in the sense that there is no way to 'realize' a set of 10^241 things.

Another related notion is that there is no way to 'realize' an irrational 'number' -- sqrt(2) can be defined but we can never draw a length of sqrt(2).
> Governments like to control people and they never back down. Once the government commits to a position like censorship, it can be near impossible to force them back.

This seems like a fatalistic take. Surely, for the government and legislative body, removing government censorship is easier than enforcing it?
Could you point me to more reading on extractive summarisation? A lot of what I see feels out of date compared to what should be possible now with LLMs.
Although no lead is insurmountable, the fixed capital investment and mature software ecosystem specific to this sector makes it harder to imagine what a competitor would look like.

Given how large the prize is, the next chapter of chip development is likely to be nvidia vs state sponsored projects. China, in particular, will funnel further resources into acquiring this technology by any means necessary, including (more) industrial sabotage and outright theft. It's going to be interesting to see how this will play out. Up until a few years ago China was viewed as being a formidable competitor for projects of this nature, but as the country has moved to become increasingly authoritarian, so too have its decision making and execution declined in quality.
> Huge users like OpenAI and Facebook might find improving AMD support pays for itself.

At that scale they may actually develop their own hardware a la Google TPU.

If you want to just focus on the AI problem and not on infrastructure, just use NVidia. If you want control and efficiency, design your own. AMD kind of falls in a weird middle ground with respect to the massive companies.
tl/dr: they did not want to learn new stuff and wanted to keep their "software development investment"

I've had good luck with Cleveland Clinic[0] if you are in the US. They are a specialty hospital (like the better known Mayo Clinic) that's good at difficult and impossible cases. They have a number of locations. You may need to travel but it's probably worth it. You can learn about the doctors online and even schedule a remote visit first.

While there is more confidence now on the security of SHA-2, or rather the lack of transference of the SHA-1 approach to SHA-2, this was not the case in 2005-2006 when NIST decided to hold the SHA-3 competition. See for example the report on Session 4 of the 2005 NIST workshop on hash functions [1].

> He's also very specifically said that he would like the world to slow down so he can finish stories before they're obsoleted by reality

My read is that he says it with tongue very much in cheek. So it's not that his stories are obsoleted but overtaken by reality, making the plot appear to be inspired by recent events - no author wants to be seen as unimaginative. Also, it has happened to him multiple times - he had to scuttle another go at a Halting State sequel scheduled for 2022 which pivoted around a (then fictional) global pandemic[1]

You seem to have a very individualistic notion of education.

Even at the research level we are not independent islands of learning and discovery. People collaborate, some pickup certain concepts better than others and vice versa. So we teach and aid each other.

It seems you're firmly against this notion? Or if not please clarify your position?
There's an odd feeling about the writing in this article. Maybe I'm seeing things but it does not feel like it's written or composed entirely by a person.
> Hence, we need to find ways to aggregate the routes and make the route table more efficient, and that's what you are looking at with IPv6 addressing. The /64 per network requirement effectively cuts the size of your route table in half, for example.

Maybe I'm misinterpreting what you're saying here, but expanding your address space doesn't suddenly mean you have more routes to deal with. Like, ISP is routing all 1.2.3.4/32 traffic to my router; they don't care what addresses it forwards to underneath that. The ISP could support more customers by handing out /40s, but that's a gradual increase.

Unless you're saying that just supporting the longer field means more memory is used for the existing addresses (true), but idk if that means you have to re-optimize all your routes.

> ...is incredibly naïve. It took decades to have everyone support HTTPS, and to this day we still have HTTP-only websites.

Most sites are HTTPS-only because it's safe to assume every client will support it. Now how many big websites are ipv6-only?

HTTPS is the networking migration success story I like to point to, in fact. Just the right amount of force was applied, including banning old TLS versions later.

> For god's sake, no. It is better to think ULAs are specifically used for internal communications than to think they are for NATs.

I didn't say they are for literal NATs. They are replacement for the private networking feature of NAT, where your LAN hosts aren't reachable from WAN.

> Except that when you are moving pre-existing machines out of a NATted network, you will need to give them new addresses, and then you realize that you have to renumber everything anyways in the end - otherwise you will have locally proximal machines in vastly different subnets.

If you're moving pre-existing machines out of a NATted network. Not everyone has to.

Struts was a popular Java MVC framework in the early 2000’s and was pre-Rails.

I kind of feel bad mentioning Struts and Rails in the same sentence, though, as Rails did much more than Struts.

Plenty of rural places like that. Many on HN would call them unregulated shitholes but it's not hard to find a place where police are an hour drive away and the residents are expected for better or worse to handle our own business.

We like it that way, and we're glad the others feel unwelcome here.

I'm sorry, but you are the one making the "standard mistake," logically. It's the incel argument. You're trying to say this is a two-way street, that the dynamics are the same in both directions. That's obviously false. It is a one-way street here. The people who are wanting to RTO are trying to exert active control over the lives of others. "You must change your habits of life to accommodate my desires." This is not what the WFH position is doing. The WFH position isn't trying to force the RTO people to do anything.

You complaining "your unwillingness to come to the office is forcing me to remain lonely in the office" is exactly the same kind of argument, structurally, as the incel argument "your unwillingness to have sex with me is forcing me to remain a virgin." Yes, there are some things that you cannot do alone, but that does not entitle you to force me to accommodate you.
I'm not sure I buy the "React is replacement, not augmentation" argument. At the end of the day/render, React still renders HTML elements... with javascript event handlers. Wrapping an '<img />' in a React component doesn't mean I've taken away any functionality of 'img'. I just add to it -- augmentation.

Maybe the author has worked in different React codebases than I have, but in my experience, we use built-in browser functionality unless we have a reason not to. Maybe I've just been lucky?
I’ve had those kinds of things in a relationship too - both with a partner ‘taking initiative’ to do something for me that I didn’t actually ask them or want them to do - and vice versa, partner hurt that I didn’t take initiative to do something for them that they didn’t ask (but secretly wanted) me to do.

Either way is unnecessarily frustrating, and while I’m willing to be a little bit patient while I train people out of the practice, sometimes it’s just not tenable. If you pause, take a breath, try to think critically, and both pre-answer anticipated questions and ask questions for clarification - better communication and more reasonable expectations are absolutely achievable. You’ve just got to be willing to commit to working on it. Not everybody sees the value in that unfortunately.
Ansible, Pulumi etc allow you to script an infrastructure once the plan is in place. I'm looking at one step earlier; how to come up with an infrastructure plan automatically, given the requirements. Configurator is the wrong name, I realize now.
Part of that was the bus and memory speed as well. The 486 bus ran at 33 MHz (the "DX4" is actually only clock-tripled to 100), while the Pentium bus and memory ran at 66.
FWIW I still don't understand what is not to understand here

Wider memory bus => Better CPU performance + higher cost

Higher cost b/c wider bus with system-in-a-package has higher cost than memory with smaller bus in standard DIMMs.

Better CPU performance b/c a wider bus gets data faster to the CPU.

California is the worst about water. When I was a kid, some turd would be lecturing me on not flushing every time and taking shorter showers while the school turned a giant grass field into a swamp every morning.

California is obsessed with watering millions of acres of grass for no apparent reason. They will water golf courses, yards around city buildings, artificial lakes, non-native tropical plants, and cemeteries for pennies. Then you get a fine for over-use because your cousin came over for a visit and used a bit extra that month.
Unity is a good "poster boy" for the unprofitable, bloated, economic value destroying tech company that was created in a ZIRP environment.

Many of these companies should start going bankrupt before too long as their debt hits their maturity dates and their interest expenses balloon.

And to try to survive they will have to aggressively cut R&D and SG&A. And as everyone cuts those budgets it will impact the revenues of who they do business with (and Unity's customers will similarly be doing the same thing, with fewer developers needing licenses and fewer games being sold due to less disposable income in the consumers).

The FAANG layoffs that we had over the past year or so weren't the real tech recession, that's still to come.

Are you writing that complex projects need SPA, everything else is better served with Wordpress?

I've used SPA frameworks, but try to avoid it if I can, because most of the logic is in the backend. I don't want to create and sync API interfaces, have 1-2 additional contexts (JS + frontend framework) and debug an extra layer.

With htmx I can now have interactivity via the backend. I use Alpine.js for some interactivity.
Review from back in May 2023

Wanted to share this as thought there would be some renewed attention due to the movie getting a TV/streaming release in a '3-part mini series' format with some extra footage on both AMC (https://www.amcnetworks.com/press-releases/critically-acclai...) and in Canada on CBC (https://www.cbc.ca/mediacentre/press-release/cbc-original-li...)
Which is true... Think of it this way, your phone does social media, which doesn't work unless ypu engage. When you engage there, mote people adapts it due to community, more eyeballs for sweet ad money. These medias also grow large and relies on other services to scale and perform those ad workload so they also build or pay someone else for the resources.

In the end what you get is a good feelong in the heart that people liked that one post/photo while they got sweet ad money and someone actually bought a product and someone else made more money.

However that engagement has a cost, you are the acrobat in their circus stage, but you get no pay and while at it you also paid for that over complex device that they also sold(charged you money to give your performance).

Of course, you can nitpick all you want from my bad example, and do a lot of what-aboutism, but the point is clear I hope.
The flywheel is directly connected to the synchronous condenser's rotor, and that rotor is locked to the grid's frequency. The grid's frequency must be maintained within a very narrow range (for a variety of reasons), so the actual speed difference of the flywheel between "full" and "the grid is shutting down" is very small and so most of the energy cannot be put into the grid. This is why flywheel storage uses variable-frequency drive systems; to be able to pull energy out of the flywheel over the entire range of full-speed to ~standstill.
None. We don't pay if the bounty isn't verifiable. This is the standard for the industry.

It is not just having kids, which is relatively cheap.

It is having kids and affording healthcare, their own room in the house, friends to play with (i.e. daycare) so that they are not just watching a screen all day, giving them access to sports and other organized physical activities, education in at least an average school (full of kids who have at least average household incomes), hosting birthdays, going on vacations (especially flying places).

If I were to ask myself if I would have had kids if I were not able to afford the above, I would say no. And I grew up without any of that.
> Reusable shopping bags once, which estimated you’d need to use your tote for at least 5 times a week, ten years or more, to offset the emissions caused to manufacture it.

This is obviously misinformation. Any time some industry is under attack, then all of a sudden “studies” appear that show these wild numbers that “prove” the status quo is “actually better for sure really I promise”, I don’t even need to read further. They either made up the data completely, or cherry-picked to such a level that it would only apply in the most unrealistic scenario.

A key clue here is the focus on manufacturing energy costs. What about the ongoing environmental impact of discarded bags clogging up rivers and oceans? What about the degradation into microplastic? There are probably dozens of other factors also not accounted for in studies like that.

It would still require a lot of power and a lot of infrastructure to do it. If a country or organisation would try to go down that route others would see that they spend a lot of effort on slurping seawater through machines they can’t explain with anything else.

That is the bottleneck how nuclear non-proliferation is enforced. You can hide your intentions, but you can’t hide that a lot or energy is flowing into a process you don’t have a good explanation for. Because of this detecting a sea water sourced extraction would be even easier than a nuclear program based on mined uranium. (Because you need to enrich from an even weaker starting condition.)

What happens after detection is either diplomacy (they ask the country to stop nicely, reminding them of the consequences) or force (bombing the facilities).
