Squeak is certainly slow, but Cuis is moving at a good clip.
It will not automatically remove dependencies that were installed along with a package when that package is removed. I'm guessing this is due to some historical ideology about how `apt-get` was intended to function. I just typically run `apt remove foobar && apt -y autoremove`.

There is also nala, which _does_ automatically remove dependencies when you remove a package: https://github.com/volitank/nala

Love this topic, thanks OP! Many years ago I created an iOS bread dough calculator that basically hard-coded the ingredients in percentage form. I used it personally for years to make pizza crusts, etc. all in a scalable format. Once, my wife and I hosted a big "make your own" pizza party and I used the app to create enough dough for 30 or so personal pizzas.

Eventually I pushed it forward (thanks to the Unity Engine at the time) and made it a "real" app on the App Store. As others have noted, there's a large gap between bespoke, home-cooked software and commercial choices. As a full-time developer this was a side-project and still suffers, imho, as an under-invested commercial app. The app has had very modest success (pays about the equivalent of one espresso a week) but I still love it.

When an app is "just yours" there's an aura of fun about the project that can get stripped away when the trajectory becomes more commercial.

We want different things, and Elon believes himself accountable to no one and desires absolute unelected power. See you at the voting booth, I want people like him kept in check until gone. I am willing to compromise a bit on governance out of pragmatism considering how people like him will use any bugs or loopholes in systems to achieve their desired outcome, crushing anyone along the way who they believe impedes said outcome.

Like Oracle [1], don't be mad at the lawnmower. It's just a lawnmower. Protect yourself from it, because it doesn't care who it hurts [2]. Elon believes empathy is a weakness, for example. It's like trying to negotiate with a Great White shark. You're gonna have a bad time. I'm advocating for a cage to protect us, not the shark. Let the shark be the shark while minimizing the harm it causes.

I think people often have a vastly different opinion of the suburbs if they don't live there or they live in an "age-inappropriate" one which will often occur if you're living at home, for example. You may be the only 25-30 year old in a neighborhood that consists entirely of people ... your parent's age. That's going to have obvious issues unless you go out of your way to be friendly and outgoing to people who likely have vastly different schedules than you do.

Whereas if you're a young family living in a suburb full of young families, you're likely going to "fit in" easier, and even if you don't go out of your way to meet people you'll continue to run into them because external factors are similar (bus arrives at the same time, school activities are similar, kids escaped and are riding the dog into the sunset, etc).

Suburbs naturally tend toward this age-based stratification because of how easy and similar they are, and just from building schedules. Almost all the new homes in developments around here are "children" homes, clearly visible from the playsets in the backyards. Those houses will now be "in sync" for decades from that.

Cities often are more mixed (though I would argue that suburbs should be, too), and even if they're not you can quickly escape to "your people."

I went through this decision a few years back (end of 2020-ish) and decided to go with Swift because it seemed SwiftUI wasn't really far enough along yet, and some experimentation with SwiftUI caused me to agree.

I wanted to avoid Objective C, largely because I liked the safety of Swift (optionals, if let, guard let, etc) to make it less likely that I'd introduce crashes.

The funny thing I found was that I ended up needing to know how to at least read Objective C code anyway, because like you say, the docs use a lot of it. StackOverflow had a lot of it too. So I had to get good at translating between the two.

Unlike the web dev world I was used to, there are way fewer Swift/ObjC devs out there, and the answers are fewer and less up-to-date.

Bluey is firmly in the category of shows for 2-4 year olds, they have to be educational at this point, I'm sorry but that's my firm stance as a parent. There will be plenty of time for pure entertainment where bad behaviour doesn't get corrected later - at this stage a 3 year old can't tell good from wrong, and the message the show sends categorically cannot be "let's punch dad in the stomach because it's funny".

Look at Peppa pig(which has a whole host of its own issues, but whatever) - any time Peppa and her brother do something wrong they get an explanation why it was wrong, how it could have hurt or made someone else sad, they apologise and sing/dance about it - most of the time it teaches a good lesson while still being amusing for little kids.

I always find it weird when people make statements like yours, full of confidence that what they are saying is the way everything is and should be, when they are literally completely and utterly wrong. What you have is an opinion of how you think the government should be run, based on your interpretation of the constitution. The reality is that the Supreme Court thinks your interpretation is wrong, and since they're the deciding factor that means your interpretation is wrong.

Sure if you have a really warped understanding of context.
My understanding is that WLPT is more consistent across manufacturers but as you say provides higher range numbers that won't match 70mph+ highway driving.

ICE cars are rated in City MPG and Highway MPG, and both are displayed on the window sticker. The EPA does test and compute City and Highway efficiency for EVs but then distills this into one combined range number for the sticker.

My suggestion would be to display separate City and Highway range figures for all EVs, adjust the Highway cycle to reflect 70mph highway driving, and combine all of the current options into a single set of test cycles that all manufacturers must use.

The current situation where different manufacturers use different test cycles and adjustment factors doesn't seem good for consumers at all.
How many distinct aspects of your product actually require asynchronous submission of form data?

A little bit of javascript/AJAX/etc is perfectly acceptable. We didn't get 100% of the way there with multipart/form because iOS/Safari exists and will crash hard if you try to post big forms.

You don't need ReactJS to submit a user input and avoid a page load. This is ~20 lines of vanilla javascript.
That seems pretty inconsistent with his belief in free speech absolutism. Not to mention, that employees are not stating "boohoo I hate my boss" they are saying (very appropriately) that he is harming the company by causing disrepute.
Do you live in a warm state or a cold state? I live in Michigan and during the winter range is reduced considerably. This is fine for my local commute, but is quite painful when you want to drive “up North” to go skiing. There isn’t a lot of charging infrastructure and coupled with the reduced range, longer trips can be inconvenient.
> that means more people are getting an education

What you think you mean: more people should get a college education.

What you probably actually mean: high school educations, which we provide free of cost in order to educate the citizenry, are no longer effectual enough at producing an "educated" citizenry, and therefore we should reform high school education.
I found it notable that the linked RHEL post had zero mention of the why of it. Seems like a glaring omission.
Mars Aerial and Ground Global Intelligent Explorer (Maggie)
My point about metrics is why I think the research is inconclusive. It’s very difficult to get a metric that’s meaningful in this context. If you said: this code base on average has 1 bug per 100 lines of code, that doesn’t say anything meaningful. If that code is assembly, that’s not very good because of how terse the code is. Whereas, if that code is Python or Ruby, that’s much better because of how concise those languages are.

Because of this, I feel like the only way to truly measure whether or not static typing has a significant effect would be to create two equivalent projects. Say you created stack overflow in Python and in C#. Then you could compare the quantity of bugs and see if it differs. But even this has problems because who knows how many bugs haven’t been caught? Is the code truly equivalent? Did the people who wrote the two codebases have slightly different experience resulting in differing number of bugs?

There’s too many variables in an experiment like this to conclusively determine whether or not static typing reduces the bugs. But, I don’t think that means that we can’t infer that eliminating a whole class of bugs is helpful.

Edit: the more I try to think about my reasoning the more I’m thinking it’s flawed. I think the answer to whether or not static typing reduces bugs is unknowable, but I strongly believe that it helps. Maybe we’ll get a study that isolates this metric one day :)
>>>"Personally I haven't run out of charge in 4.5 years of driving an EV in all sorts of places"

Neither have i, but if the cybertruck is any dystopian-minded-MadMax types' "bug out vehicle" -- this is going to suck.

The cybertruck should come with a built in generator that can consume gas to charge your thing?

One can take a cybertruck-type vehicle out into the woods of Alaska, and carry a bunch of extra fuel, but you can't bring an additional 5,000 LBS of batteries...

I' dont have the energy (pun intended) to do it, but it would seem that one could make a simple spreadsheet to compare miles per gallon to miles per battery weight, such that you know that if you get 20 miles per gallon and a gallon weighs 8 pounds, vs you get how much distance out of the EV per weight?

Tesla delivers. That’s above par for the current course. The problem is Musk’s antics create opportunity for competitors. If he could have the discipline he does with SpaceX, Tesla’s long-term prospects would be stronger.
I dread that day. It's annoying enough listening to people's phone conversations; in my experience, listening to people using speech to operate a UI is a higher level of annoyance (because the person's speech tends to start and stop abruptly because the cognitive demands of operating a UI are higher than that of having a conversation with a person).
There is! And it’s not too hard to modify.

that makes sense. i have been using coffeescript, and i know what you mean. the main draw for a different syntax for me was readability as coffeescript had some advanced constructs that javascript didn't have, but since then javascript has caught up and so coffeescript no longer offers that much of a benefit that it once did.

in difference to coffeescript smalltalk at least offers the benefit of a syntax that is also usable elsewhere.
Excellent article!

I love it. I have a couple similar projects I've worked on in the past (a couple of which were what got me into engineering in the first place) and the clarity of vision you can achieve when you're really truly building something just for yourself is unparalleled. What follows is also a very unique sense of fulfillment; as you've eliminated all the societal contributors to the sense of fulfillment (which are of course fickle), what you're left with is something that by definition had to be made to make you and only you happy, and it lasts over time in a way that is durable and pure.

My greatest regret these days is how often it feels like I lack the time to do such projects -- but that of course is a cop out on my end! The hard part is only getting started and being consistent; you don't need to do that much on a week to week basis to get to somewhere really meaningful after a few years.
This is key, because not every mile driven is the same. If you see "Model Y has a range of 300 miles" and set out to drive 300 miles you are going to have a problem. The temperature, wind speed/direction, humidity, pressure, cloud cover, altitude, uphill/downhill driving, vehicle weight, battery quality, tire tread, AC use, average speed... all make a huge difference. The nav system does take these into account and gives you a much more realistic number.

What uh... what happened to the title here?
Brit here that just visited CDMX. It's absolutely similar to a number of the Spanish palaces in feel/design, but also has some unique elements, such as the garden on the top floor. Plenty of signage in English and Spanish, explaining the history of the place too. It's right on the top of the hill, so on a good day you get an amazing view out over the city.

We went on a Saturday, and it was fairly busy, but the park the was absolutely buzzing with locals and generally had a chill party vibe to the whole area.

Ultimately, it depends how interesting you find castles and palaces - personally I love seeing different ones and comparing/contrasting to others I have visited, following the history of the development over time.
Interestingly it seems to be 10.6+ in the documentation. They backdeploy like that sometimes I guess.
You cant fix internal problems with external solutions, but not all problems are internal. Most are a combination of the two, a miss-match of internal and external conditions.

I think there is a lot to be said in favor of stoicism and introspection, but it is not the solution to every problem.
Most of the complaints about the NLRB and other agencies are bunk. However, the quasi-judicial bodies inside administrative agencies are legitimately worrisome.

Making substantive policy is fine as long as Congress has given them an intelligible principle to guide them - which they have: the NLRA.

The NLRB is not immune to democratic control; the General Counsel of the NLRB is removable at will by the President and Congress can override any rule or precedent.

However, it is legitimately a problem that the NLRB and other agencies have their own internal court where you have no right to a jury trial, the rules of evidence are stacked against you, and the ultimate decision is heavily dependent on the partisan makeup of the current Board (Democratic boards routinely overturn precedent established under Republican boards and vice versa). There is a case at the Supreme Court this term that may begin to remedy that.

Yes, the reason I was doing it like that on the PC was for the same reason you mention -- using polygons probably is faster because you cut out a lot of math and branches (as long as the polys are large enough) and just drop down to blitting huge swathes of solid color into the frame buffer.

By contrast, I find the Authenticator and password management offerings from Google and Microsoft to be quite serviceable by now. They lack many cushy KeePassXC features, but someday will reach parity. The convenience and tight integration is so important. I always prefer first-party, bundled software above third-party.

Especially because KeePass ecosystem is maintained by some kind of fly-by-night, pseudonymous Eurohackers, who knows what undesirable foreign influence is operative here. I already have very uneasy suspicions about the integrity of their supply chains and password generation capabilities.

I'm very happy to fall into the arms of Big Tech whom we already trust for everything else (and if you personally refuse to maintain accounts with Google or Microsoft, remember that every single corporation and government does so anyway, with all your data at stake.)
Bluey blew me away when I saw it with my daughter. It's sweet, positive, emotional, well written. It's not the slightest bit cynical, handles every issue with tact, doesn't contain heavy handed messaging and has traditional values. It also has a very positive two parent dynamic. This is an absolute unicorn of a show.

Note: my usage of "traditional values" is not meant to evoke anything political or intended to be interpreted from a culture war lens. I just mean it positively portrays a family dynamic that can be universally appreciated.
That is not a great test. Maybe it's just me but I don't often write code with the proper code style (or even semi-colons depending on the language) and let the IDE handle all of that.

Isn't it illegal to overstate official EPA results? Maybe I'm missing something here.

Moreover, this affects ALL 2024 model year battery electric vehicles. There is a 6-page document here that explains it:

https://dis.epa.gov/otaqpub/display_file.jsp?docid=55592&fla...

This was enacted in 2022 but goes into effect this year:

This new policy is applicable to new testing for 2024 model year and later vehicles. It may be
applied to new testing for 2023 model year vehicles. *Vehicles utilizing carry-over data may
continue to use data generated under previous policy* for as long as the tests are valid (i.e., no
changes to the vehicle requiring new MPGe/range testing are required). *Manufacturers who add
a new configuration to a test group for 2024 and later must present new test results using this
policy*, but existing data can still be used if it is representative".

I think a lot of people (bad therapists included!) like to identify trauma, and use it as an excuse for "how I be the way I am" instead of identifying it, working through it and changing self to overcome it.

And once you get to "self-diagnosed trauma" the rates of this skyrocket. And why you see so many dismissive "get over it" responses.
