The Bail Project people are amazing people and I love and adore everything they do. I kept in contact with them through the last couple of years of my incarceration.

I just checked out that National Re-entry web site. Oh lord, as a web designer I just died a little inside. I tried searching for information and it just gave me pages of PDF internal reports about jail management etc. Literally nothing that would get me food or say, some winter boots.

The problem I've got is that my immigration status was screwed by the incarceration and my SSN is currently invalid. I can't get any ID and I can't access any government services until it is restored. I'm supposed to be in immigration jail until my green card is reinstated, but I talked to an ICE agent and they say I am super low priority as long as I stay out of trouble they won't come after me.
- I use Emacs every day as my primary (and only) programming text editor.

- Having nearly 20 years of experience using Emacs, it's just a totally natural fit for me.

- I program primarily in Rust. I use the built-in LSP client, eglot, to communicate with rust-analyzer and have IDE features such as jump-to-def, find-refs, find-impls, auto-import, auto-format, semantic rename, etc. It works just as well as VSCode/Codium (which I tried for about a week to make sure I wasn't missing out; I wasn't.) I also do the odd shell script, Python script, YAML config, Dockerfile, etc. for which Emacs is also well-suited.

- As far as I know, I'm the only person in the company using Emacs. There's a few vim/neovim users, but the vast majority of people are using VSCode. Having paired with many, I don't think that I'm slower for using Emacs; in fact, I think that I am in many cases faster because I am so familiar with the text operations that I don't even think about them, I just do them.

- Overall, I don't see any reason for me to switch away from Emacs at the moment, especially since LSP really blurred the distinction between "text editor" and "IDE".

- I typically don't recommend that programmers try Emacs if they're not already familiar with it. Partly because I don't want them to ask me questions, but mostly because their natural tendency is to try and reproduce their VSCode/JetBrains/Visual Studio workflow. This usually causes frustration, because the way to use Emacs effectively is different from the way to use a product like VSCode that aims to have a good out-of-the-box experience.

I had no idea Clang had this rewriter, what an odd feature to keep around for all these years.

I wonder if Apple actually uses/used it for anything.
For a lot of applications we have pretty much reached that point already. 2TB NVMe SSD are around the $100-$150 price point these days. Unless they are actively trying, the average desktop user is never going to fill that up. There are only so many holiday pictures you can take, after all.

I think the size of audio files is a great example of why storage needs won't infinitely grow. Although we have orders of magnitude more storage space these days, audio files haven't really gotten any bigger since the CD era. If anything, they have gotten smaller as better compression algorithms were invented.

The thing is, human hearing only has so much resolution. Sure, we could be sampling audio at 64-bits with a 1MHz sample rate these days if we wanted to, but there's just no reason to. Similarly with pictures: if you can't see any pixels standing a foot away from a poster-sized print, why bother increasing the resolution any more?

The big consumer-range data hogs are 1) video torrents, and 2) games. Both of them have a natural upper bound due to human perception. They might still grow by an order of magnitude or two, but it won't be much more before it just becomes pointless.

Enterprise is a bit of a different story, of course - especially now that AI is rapidly increasing the value of data.
Is Google shooting itself in the foot by taking an adversarial approach toward the user's desire to avoid invasive surveillance? I think so.
> one can learn about the no-review-fast-track that Chrome WebStore plans to implement next year.

My understanding is that no-review-fast-track is only for extensions which changes in DNR rulesets are only about block/allow/allowAllRequests rules.

I don't see how comprehensive content blockers can push meaningful updates with only changes to block/allow/allowAllRequests rules and nothing else.

Comparing a vehicle (especially a pickup truck) to a bike shows you how absurdly fast that vehicle is.

Jet fuel and avgas are kept carefully separate and are incompatible - Jet fuel has no added lead.

DNA "storage" is great for parallel interrogation I've read, but for actual "storage" storage proteins are far longer lasting.

Sadly nothing in the constitution limits the length of pretrial incarceration. I don't understand the full constitutional implications of the those in Guantanamo, but that issue probably had something to do with why their detention was allowed to continue for so long.

NYC uses ginkgos for this purpose. They still make up a fairly small portion of the trees in the city, though. They're also particularly hardy when it comes to handling pollution, which is obviously valuable in cities.

As a matter of ethics and morality you're probably not wrong. As a matter of law it's important that there is a distinction because it would cut both ways.

I think this is pretty typical of these niche web features. Like most users have no need for web midi and most likely don't even own a midi device that it would work with. But niche websites can find great value in the api being available and offer sites to users which bring them value without having them install a native app. Also I'm not sure if it's a good idea to give people a reason to install and use a competitors browser.

> Cosmetic meaning what exactly?

Filter lists are composed of two types of rules: “cosmetic” and “network”. Network rules define what needs to be done with web requests (block or redirect). In MV3 these rules should now be implemented via new declarative API.

Cosmetic rules is a very wide subset of ad blocking rules that define how a web page needs to be changed. These are implemented the old way.

I’m talking about the early to mid 90s of web development and you reply with a monitor released around 2000. That’s a completely different era.

That’s more an issue with OSs not doing scaling back then than it is a problem with desktop software.

You’d still have the same issue today if you run a super high resolution with zero scaling.

> There are more web developers because it was a lot easier

It’s has a lower barrier for entry but I wouldn’t call it easier.

So you’re basically agreeing with me then. The current state of affairs is out of control.

> Electron was really late on the scene as far as frontend tech goes. It was originally made to support an IDE and not regular business apps and still won.

Its origins doesn’t disprove my point. Lots of things start out as one thing and evolve into something else. That isn’t unique to the web nor Electron.
Surrounded by Russians, Ukrainian soldier called in a strike on his own position
Objective-C is interesting. The problem I had back when we were using it was lack of performance. For us, in many cases, refactoring code down to C easily improved performance over 400 times. Code that struggled to deliver output in a usable time scale quickly became better than real time.

Today, in computing, we are using far more energy than necessary because of the proliferation of inefficient languages in server, desktop and mobile codebases. I would guess we could achieve a non-trivial improvement in carbon footprint if computing were to have the same kinds of energy efficiency requirements we impose on appliances and vehicles.

This study [0], published in 2017, evaluated the time, energy and memory efficiencies of some thirty languages. Sadly they did not include Objective-C. Swift did make the list.

Table 4 shows the normalized results. C was most energy and time efficient and very close (third) in memory efficiency. Swift consumed nearly three times more energy, four times slower and nearly three times the memory. Python requires 76 times more energy, 72 times more time and three times more memory.

Clearly there is a cost to choosing a language along these vectors. Given the ubiquity of computing in human life today, I am sometimes surprised that we have not become far more critical about permanently baking-in terribly bad energy inefficiency into systems and products. Developing energy-efficient software using languages like C, C++ and Rust isn't really that difficult.

You are massively confused. The Constitution gives certain powers to the government at the pleasure of the governed (read: Americans) and affords protections to them while providing none to foreigners (read: those who aren't governed by the US government). Re-read what I said and re-read the Constitution too if you have time, the Constitution's protections and guarantees apply to individuals and whether they are American.

In short, it is illegal for the NSA (or any part of the US government) to spy on Americans and legal to spy on foreigners, regardless of a given individual's location.

We generally draw the line using physical location because keeping track of whether you ended up with info on an American while spying somewhere outside America, say France or Japan, is utterly impractical. That doesn't mean the legal lines are drawn like that, though.

The thing that this article is missing is that we use JavaScript in these places because compatibility is better. We can even use new JavaScript by transpiling, but polyfilling missing CSS and HTML is a lot harder to do and impossible in some cases (not to mention your polyfill will use JavaScript).

`appearance` has a lot of caveats on MDN about testing it thoroughly if you're going to use it—even `appearance: none`. This may matter less if you only have to support new browsers, but keep in mind that old versions of Safari stay in circulation longer than you might think.

`datalist` does nothing on Firefox Android. It just shows to me as an input box with no functionality at all (not even the suggestions over the keyboard that others report in Chrome Android).

The color picker is neat, but extremely nonstandard, which is a dealbreaker for most businesses not just because the designers will complain but because customer support will find it harder to help people. Chromium provides the functionality to pick on a page and pick literally any color, but Firefox Android only gives me the rainbow, a gray, and black and white.

The article itself acknowledges the inconsistencies with `details` and `dialog`.

I hope we eventually get to a place where browsers that don't support these features (and support them consistently with each other) are no longer used, but in the meantime these elements will only find their way into my side projects, where I have full control of which browsers I support.

I’d prefer this kind of spatial computing, I like it more than AR/VR – especially that this relies more on human sensory input, as opposed to working against it. E.g. no need to simulate head tracking.
The processing required to process the signal, combined with the decreased precision wouldn't make it very practical, in my opinion.
Yes, in my experience the most common usages are to pair an Objective-C Cocoa UI to cross platform C++ internals, to use C++ for more performance critical parts of an app, or even to just be able to take advantage of the plethora of C++ libraries without going all-in on C++.

Things might’ve changed with Swift being around now, but as I understand one place where the Obj-C UI + C++ internals setup used to be common was Audio Unit extensions due to the high latency sensitivity of anything working with audio.
The title could use some changes in wording, but "In contrast to data usually stored on the best hard drives and the best SSDs of today..." was clearly referring to the data retention time of those media, and that is indeed often quoted as being on the order of years, not thousands of years, for HDD/SSD data carriers. I'd say that's quite contrasting indeed, if that ceramic storage can keep its promise of 5000 years data retention.

No, there were 92 people on bail for murder in my county at the same time I was locked up. They just had the $50K, $100K, $200K .. whatever the judge asked for to secure their release.

There were people I was with doing months in jail because they couldn't come up with $50. I had a homeless cellmate with a $200 bond. I told him I'd get my wife to pay the damned thing, but in the end he managed to get all his homeless buddies to come down to the jail and give $10 or $20 each over three days until he had enough to get out. I won that case for him, he was only jailed because the local police chief was a piece of shit and put a false warrant out for him even though he had committed no crime.

I had the privilege of attending a school with a hundred year old building and back in those days it was copying an even older architectural style and it was beautiful. Meanwhile most modern university buildings were plain ugly. The old brick and mortar buildings were my favourite even though the interior was comically out of date. I.e. creaky wooden floods and seating that looks like it had a 40 year history.

I use Emacs for everything -- and more when I can.

I am one of a handful that use Emacs at work, and often people are surprised at what I can do that they can't do with whatever they are doing. For example, I have all my Jira tickets in a org file and can update in bulk, create, and assign tickets all from a simple file in a few key strokes.

I am responsible for writing c++, go, python, C#. On top of that I have syntax hi lighting for all the major formats such as yaml, toml, json, but even have lesser known ones as hcl.

I mostly live in the terminal (vterm) within Emacs that allows me full control over things. For example, I have custom lisp functions that can extract a json blob that was just displayed in a log file and open it in a new buffer and have it formatted ready for me to inspect.

You asked bout work-flows, while emacs can do a lot of things it is not yet responsible for compiling code and many common system tools. In such used with Nix I can produce any dev environment on the fly.

Being sa singleton is not a problem mostly because once you get past the voodoo that other systems use its all the same stuff under the hood, and with Emacs you just so happen to have more control of those systems when something goes wrong.

I actually wouldn’t be too sure about that. Some dark patterns have become so ubiquitous that a new developer might just think that that’s the way to implement certain features.
Not so ironic now - as there aren't really good alternatives to a build step with a static site. But my opinion is that that may change now with the adoption of HTMX for static sites. There doesn't have to be a build step since you don't have to build full pages from their constituting parts.

It would probably be better to have a longer term solution. $45 billion for lead today. I'm guessing in another generation they're choose to remediate some other contamination like PFOAs or some plastics used in pipe liners.

I think one important reason people misuse this so much is because "begging the question" does not straightforwardly convey the meaning assigned to it by whichever logicians coined the modern English term.

It isn’t “nothing else”, cosmetic rules can still be updated independently “over-the-air”. One more approach (a bit “hacky”) is to distribute cosmetic rules inside static rulesets (hide them in a separate “metadata” field).

I personally like the fast track idea as we can use the CWS infra to distribute updates quickly, but this is not the only way.

Differential updates are also possible and if they’re implemented, you can keep a normal release cycle (6 weeks for instance).
