I mentioned the main problem in the second paragraph:

> There were many bugs in this scale of app around making sure the DOM reflected the latest change to some model. The engineering team regarded the more complicated screens as a nightmare to maintain in our fast paced environment with many teams touching the code.

I've seen this same issue in Cocoa/UIKit/Android views. Older Cocoa in particular has a lot of hairy wiring up of signals and first responders and delegates. I think it's less of an issue there because the rate of change is typically lower; in web land we expect to deploy continuously and with a very high number of engineers, anything targetting the app store will usually deploy at most weekly (2 orders of magnitude fewer deploys) and with many less engineers (usually an order of magnitude at least. My hypothesis is the difference in change rate is why this kind of bug was more of an issue for web developers.
It is unsustainable in its current form. Of course you can cut benefits, raise taxes, raise age, etc to extend it for however long it makes sense. But it was designed for an evergrowing number of taxpayers, who'd support those before them due to strength in numbers. But as the tax burden grows, more and more people are going to be against it. I don't expect the majority of Gen Z will ever see a penny of it. I'm not sure I will, either.
According to Snopes, the mass of the water held back by the dam (39 trillion kilograms, or 42 billion tons) is sufficient to change the rotation of the earth:

So why is this being downvoted, when the subject is ground subsidence from man-made structures?
On the other hand, these things see a lot more annual miles than consumer vehicles so the payback period should be shorter. I agree though, that probably it would require some kind of government involvement to get broad adoption.

Also, I imagine it's easier to find extra space for batteries in the the trailer than the tractor.

Regenerative breaking seems like a more important improvement though.

Some kind of single context abstract interpretation maybe.
> There's actually not even "gambling addiction" anymore. It's been properly renamed to "gambling disorder".

You're incorrectly making assumptions about that wording. They're all disorders now. E.g. a heroin addiction is officially "opioid use disorder" in the DSM. It's probably part of some initiative to be more inclusive or avoid the accusatory nature of the word addiction.

More than that, you're interpreting in the wrong direction. Gambling disorder and substance use disorders were both moved into the same chapter of the DSM-V ("Substance-related and addictive disorders"), reflecting ongoing evidence that gambling disorder triggers reward pathways in the brain the same way that drugs do.

https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s40429-014-0027-6 if you want more info on the history of categorizing gambling and other addictive but non-substance-abuse disorders.
Superrich confused why money not talking
I never said there aren't features in Go I would rather see removed, or that there aren't features I would like to see added, or that Go is perfect in general.
Yes! I have a exercise bike in my garage that is mechanically sound but with a terrible monitor, would love to have it come up to the level of Concept2 machines.
There are two ways to take it, "Rust will never have a 2.0 ... therefore everything added to it must be perfect." or "Rust will never have a 2.0 ... so don't try to force it to be something that its not and lets make Rust the best it can be."

A language with Rust's priorities but designed with an effect system from the start could be epic. But Rust is not that language and maybe it can't be. And that's ok. We can give Rust a pass since effect systems weren't even invented yet when it was being designed.

> I've notice the there is a group of people who has their entire identity tied up in being "smarter" than everyone else

I've also seen the opposite where people revolve their entire identity around not being the person and they swing too far the other direction and end up being a masochist and doing things the dumb way because they're too afraid of coming across like a snob.
> It's that a bunch of middle class people in the post-war auto-boom bought up extremely valuable property

No, not at all. This is what I mean about misunderstanding where it came from.

It was middle class and lower middle class people who bought up cheap property in undesirable (at the time) places. Only later the area becomes desirable and rich people move in driving the prices sky high and consequently the property taxes sky high.

Those low/middle class people who have been living there for a long time are mostly still low/middle class and can't afford those taxes. People tend to be protective of their homes so this makes a lot of people very angry and those people vote.

> There's no reason that justifies Prop 13 beyond NIMBYism.

Of course there is a reason, I just explained it above.

You may not agree it is a reason you like, perhaps you feel the free market should simply allow prices and taxes to fluctuate wherever they go. That's a valid take as well, one that produces different outcomes: worse for some, better for some.
For a variety of reasons - higher uptake of vaccinations (~85% vs ~70%), universal health care coverage, stronger worker protections, better compliance with stronger public health rules and restrictions, lower obesity rates (~30% of adults vs ~40%) - one might suspect that they shouldn't match US numbers.

Broadly, I guess I just feel non-specifically like a bunch of articles about COVID in the US in 2020 aren't especially germane when discussing COVID in Canada in 2022, when so much about the situation is so radically different.
That is a very good point in favor of Bash.
Definitely not by subscribing to an expert network. Those things are way too expensive and overrated
> As many as 70 percent of laptops sent from companies to remote workers are never seen by companies again, Muneer Mirza, AWS' end-user compute general manager, claimed to The Register.

This seems quite an absurd claim. I can't find any counter data but this number is so high it can't possibly be true.
The Pursuit of Beauty in Math (2015)
In the US (and perhaps elsewhere) I recently witnessed this with Angels & Insects, the 1995 movie based on a novella by A.S. Byatt (who died last week). Not only does it not appear to be available streaming, but the DVD is out of print and used copies seem to be going for $40+.
If a company is legally required to use PostNord and PostNord can legally refuse to deliver mail, it effectively gives PostNord the power to control any company that wants to continue receiving mail. Regardless of whether they are using that power for good or evil here, I don't think it's a power they should have.
US officials have done so lots of times. Go to any official political meeting between countries and US businesses are participating together with state officials. Like in US China meetings.

Xi Jinping just met with Tim Cook, Elon Musk, etc.
> Most restaurants have actual kitchens, with people moving around and making plenty of noise

Some of the food may be prepared on-site, but you'd be surprised at how many of the offerings in restaurants (even high-end restaurants) come right off the truck from outfits like Aramark and Sysco.
Today... However if Microsoft (or someone unknown) works hard for a while they can build a more compelling offering and get F1000 to switch over the next 10-20 years.

Probably better to just admit to it to avoid the usual Streisand effect.
I think the idea is that if they don't know something basic you can forget about the hard stuff.
Yes, I agree. Real numbers are a quite nebulous construct for which the need is a bit hard to see. Complex numbers are basically a hack to solve quadratic equations in all cases.
Tell me - why thats not enough?
This heavily depends on your workstation. Biome scales very well. With 16 threads on a i7-120P, I got the following figures:

Webpack repository:

Biome ran

4.18 ± 0.14 times faster than Biome (1 thread)
32.12 ± 1.18 times faster than Prettier
32.45 ± 2.56 times faster than Parallel-Prettier

I am not sure why Parallel-Prettier is slower than Prettier for the webpack repository.

Prettier repository:

Biome ran
1.89 ± 0.21 times faster than dprint

High speed rail between San Francisco and Los Angeles isn't economically viable. California HSR will cost at least $30 billion to construct and California's own estimates claim it will cost $700-$874 million per year to operate.[1] Around four million passengers fly between SF and LA every year. Assuming every single one of them takes the train instead of flying, you're looking at $175-$218 per ticket just to pay for operations. If you wanted the project to pay for itself in 20 years, you'd have to charge $550-$600 per ticket. For comparison, airfare between the two cities starts at $80 round trip. Also the train will take 3 hours while flying takes 1.5 hours. Even including the time it takes to get to/from the airport and get through security, flying is faster.

Art transcends conservatives-versus-liberals and so does the principle of substituting propaganda for art. That's why I don't like what Hollywood has taken away from itself; people who would accept the bad movies if they were preaching who-knows-what-else can speak for themselves. It's a common refrain that people criticize these new movies as a way to secretly criticize what they represent, but to be honest, it's just a lot of really bad movies...

You likely mean every integer or rational is computable (although not by definition). There are finite real numbers that are not computable, in fact most of them are not.

> Do people usually have the SQL language so well memorized that they can pull it out of their head on command? I swear to god I'm not the only engineer who regularly goes to the cheat sheet.

I think the key insight for you here is that there are many jobs where the only technical skill used is SQL. You probably should know this stuff like the back of your hand for such roles. Old, slow moving, large companies have many people doing this sort of work.

Contrast with a generic "developer" at some startup who uses SQL as only one part of much larger and more complex applications.

As a "developer" you have to deal with so much obscure syntax in your life (actual programming languages, shells, dockerfiles, kubernetes yaml, helm, god knows how many 3rd party APIs, ci/cd definitions, other rando DSLs...) that you won't be able to keep everything in working memory.
There was another game I looked at where even spells took inventory slots - no more mucking about with "Oh, I have three 2nd level spells..." What you have in your inventory is what you have, period.
This video came up in my yt feed a couple of days ago. I watched the rice cooker video that was also hn front page a few weeks back. And now The Algorithm thinks I like Japanese undustrial manufacturing videos. I'm not complaining.

It is however still movement, which is important because static electric fields don't produce magnetism, whereas moving charges do - which is the principle benefit of AC current.

A very similar concept is Revoy, which hitches a device between the tractor and trailer. I expect Revoy's model would see a much higher utilization rate (time spent driving or charging vs sitting idle).

Yes, I have stated that I understand it is legally a no-no because they are violating the terms under which they have access to that documentation. But ethically, I think it is a lot less clear cut, because it allows CSC/DXC to hold their platform hostage and not really have to try for re-competes because they know that they can try their luck in court. They gave TCS access to the documentation, is it really a good use of the American justice system to enforce what they do with it? Is it a matter of ethical concern? I don't think so.

This is why enterprise IT is a mess. Every time you need to do anything, you have to triple check that you aren't violating some clause buried in some obscure legal agreement that you probably don't have access to. Or else, you could cost your firm a quarter billion dollars or more. So you end up with reams of dead software that is unusable by design since it is being held hostage by various different commercial interests. I understand that is just the world we live in when millions of dollars are involved, but we can do better.

On the other hand I get the concern: you would want some legally enforceable agreement with TCS that they won't steal confidential information you share with them in good faith to steal business. Nor go and hire a bunch of staff to poach your contract. But documentation of the software that Transamerica paid for is secret, are you kidding me? They would have been fine, legally, if they got the materials directly from Transamerica. Because they got it from someone who merely used to work there, it is a quarter of a billion dollar mistake. Seems like a pretty narrow difference to me, hardly some kind of grand ethical quandary.
It doesn't need to be perfect in order to be effective. What's your point?

> I wonder how much potential there is to make them a lot more reliable and easier to use. Other kinds of instruments in the lab have gotten much more reliable and much easier to use over time, though this is not a particularly quick process. But I suspect this depends a lot on how well you can isolate the fragile parts of the equipment from the users.

Going to 100 kV makes everything a little more forgiving in theory. SEMs that operate in the 10 kV range can be had for a full order of magnitude cheaper, although that price probably scales a bit with achievable resolution. But for an example, the 200 kV/300 kV microscopes can't change temperature by +- 1°F over a 24 hour period without the lenses going out of alignment (presumably because of the resistance change in the electromagnets).

>Regarding the last paragraph, it's incredibly frustrating if you see time on expensive instruments wasted because there aren't enough experts around and people have to try and figure out stuff for themselves. But it seems that it's almost always easier to buy another expensive instrument compared to hiring an expert on a permanent position.

The NIH and NSF have been quite willing to provide money to purchase microscopes. They are far less willing to provide money to cover annual operational expenses.
That has not matched my experience at all, either.

Sure, some laptops never seem to make it back, but generally, their last paycheck isn't released until the gear is back and checked.

I wasn't vaccinated (waiting on novax) and the first time I got omicron and it was awful. But I was recovered in a week. By the time novavax was released I had natural immunity. Got it next year too and it was gone in 2 days, I only knew I had it since I lost my smell.

People that got infected once got it really bad the first time and subsequently recovered quickly. Hope that's the case with you too.
I don't think there's a need to cause a stir and generate hate for either Web Components or React.

We should hate both equally.

Either approach is frankly an embarrassing way to build complex interactive applications. Web tech is just way too low level, batteries not included. We've added mountain of complexity to deal with it but it doesn't hide that the fundamentals are broken and that productivity is low.
Let 0 correspond to zero, and 1 corresponded to Rayo's number. Crisis averted!
'As many as', suggests there might have been one particular case where that happened, probably due to a complex situation, (small company, pandemic, company going out of business, lack of strong oversight, policies on returning equipment not set in place at the time of layoffs, ect).

Using that one particular statistic to make this point seems like an obvious use of bad statistics. The average or median is probably much more normal, and probably a huge number of computers worth a good chunk of money, but it doesn't sound that eyecatching so they choose to go with this particular number.
Hi to you too, Darwin.
fwiw, in the games I run, nobody is high level enough to have any way to bring someone back from the dead, and I won't pull any special strings to keep characters alive.

If a player really wants their character, I'd offer them the chance to do a spin-off campaign where they're in an afterlife, but if someone dies, that's it.

I don't know what's "performative" about it. The respirator has a clear mechanism of action. They filter out almost all airborne viruses and are even better at filtering bacteria (which are larger). They also have the side benefit of making the wearer not want to eat airline "food" which I've noticed leaves me feeling better when I arrive. They are designed to be worn effectively even by illiterate manual laborers, so it's not as if you need to be a PhD to get one on your face.
We have 2 brothers for our small business, one as the main and the other as a backup (which we have also brought with us when traveling). We are heavy users, probably >10k pages every year, but we have only replaced the drum once and have successfully ignored the "optical photoconductor life over" message for nearly 2 years.

Once a new cartridge failed ("not recognized" error even though it was purchased through Staples) and the brother support person walked me through some secret squirrel reset code which I of course saved for future use. The fact I could get someone from the company on the line to help me was a rare experience for tech companies.

My only gripe with the toner cartridges is the requirement to enter a serial number to get a recycling mailing label. The serial numbers are miniscule.
To be honest, Twitter/X has been a sewer for a good decade or so. The only thing that has changed is the kind of sewage that is allowed or encouraged to flow through it.

I’ve tried. They simply don’t run any decent useful models on an ESP32-S3 at a speed that has real use cases. Maybe one day, but not yet.

Whereas today, OpenCV and derivatives are already using the LX7 vector extensions and run fast enough to be useful.
I think Tesla's workers have issues with the law stating that all license plates must be delivered through Postnord. Tesla has tried to pick them up themselves, but since that is not allowed, and the strike is, it's basically state sanctioned theft.

If Postnord doesn't want to deliver, that's fine- but there should be a way to take possession of property.
I know I'm hoping that in my late 50s / early 60s my company goes through a round of voluntary layoffs. It remains to be seen how good my 401k and other retirement plans do over the years in between - I can't afford to retire today, but there is a good chance that by 60 I could do so. Having see several relatives die at 64-65 recently I'm not interested in working longer (family history suggests overall I'll have an average lifespan: 78-79 - but the normal bell curves start showing death at 64 is not an outlier)
