Over the holiday break I wanted a tablet for casually playing games. So I broke out my iPad from around 2012 or so, only to find out most of the apps I tried to download were not compatible with my devices and my device's OS can not be upgraded anymore. I have two of these devices too :/

I feel like there should be more support for getting use out of your "old" devices. Thinking about the amount of waste is unsettling.

I made a little web scraper to find iOS games that worked on my device though, feel free to use it and/or modify the code to find apps you want: https://github.com/cjstewart88/vintage
While I love and use Python everyday, I do believe that JS is a lot more popular and mainstream for web development today.

I'm not sure who the intended audience is. Your arguments are technical enough that whoever is able to follow them will be extremely unimpressed by the linked Donald Duck cartoon. The fact that you do include it and think it improves your case demonstrates that you attempt to target the emotional side of your reader. I'll be honest and admit this is an uncharitable view. The charitable view is simply that you found this video and couldn't resist linking to it. But it's not good.
YUI... Now there's a name I've not heard in a while.

In the early aughts, YUI was always third after jQuery and MooTools. HTMX to me really feels like early MooTools again (before they decided to be more like jQuery)

Right, so where's the social value in it? The work has proven to be of little value. What's in it for the people who extend copyright to keep giving it to you even though they don't really care for what you have to offer?

Moreover, while your entire story has proved a complete and utter failure, what if just one page of your story has tremendous value for the next author who knows how to add a more compelling page 2? Why do we want to hold back that human progress so you can sit on something that doesn't even make you any money?
These kind of talks always came up in philosophy class and I always made the same point - there isn't saving a life, we are all dying/will die, singularity permitting. Dying just means dying sooner, lifetime QoL should be the only metric for us mortals.

It's just the calculus suffers from the same existential problem as abortion morality - how do you weight a lived life vs non-existence?
Thr EU is fining EU based companies as well. And all Big Tech companies have offices in the EU.

Thanks guys for the feedback. I think it's pretty clear what should be worked on next.
I had an iPhone SE affected by this. It would have been _a lot_ easier to accept what Apple did had they also done these things:

1. Been upfront about it at the time of purchase that there was a hidden function that could make the advertised performance "over 2x the speed of iPhone 5" to become 0.8x the speed of the 5 due to technical limitations.

2. Not refused me a battery replacement due to a small dent in the screen.

I spent dozens of hours with some third-party app developers wasting their (and mine) time trying to debug and understand why their apps were running slower on my nine month old SE compared to my much older 5. Apple caused us to waste our time and energy which could have been better spent elsewhere.

The lower price of the battery replacement ironically also meant that I could not go to our equivalent of small claims court because it then was under the minimum limit of what the court would help dispute that the screen was unrelated to the battery issue.
The difference is that with an app, the server can ensure it's running on a safe non-compromised/jailbroken device using remote attestation (Play Integrity, App Attest).

With a web browser, there's no way of doing that by design as the user has full control over their user agent, so you need to trust the end user is following good security practices and hasn't allowed their user agent to become compromised.

However, in the EU, banks are legally liable for financial loss caused by unauthorised transfers, so they are increasingly not willing to trust that the user hasn't just loaded their browser up with malicious extensions and malware.
It's worth being very careful about these constructions.

"no evidence of a difference" is fine so long as it's proceeded with "This study found", which when studies are translated to press reports often gets dropped, especially in headlines.
As Throwaway stated all fabs are offline. The office portions are online but moving data in and out of the fab is pure sneaker net.

You realize how much of a complete joke airport security is once you have gone through the security gauntlet to get into a fab.

Getting a laptop into the complex is a difficult. USB drives, cell phones, etc. are carefully controlled. Making a direct connection to a tool in the fab with anything is a major PITA.
That is strange policy. The machine may never die, there are Commodore 64's that still work.

One should use the machine while it enables an efficient workflow. As soon as it doesn't, and there are those that do for a reasonable price, one should switch. Anything else is equal to wasting time, which is obviously a bad thing.

This is highly contextual. I do drive 20 years old car but it is great, I almost never maintain it, it gets me from A to B in the same time as new cars and in given city landscape is equally safe. Buying a new car would be total waste of money AND time now. Contrary, I can replace phone or headphones within a year if there are annoying things that make me lose time.
Those languages are sort of like the jackling house to apple.

I know you can use homebrew (which requires an xcode install) but I don't see apple really supporting you writing code.

With ios, you must ask 10 kinds of permission to write and run your own code.
I tend to prefer desktops because the hardware is generally lasting longer, both in terms of reliability and in terms of performance. My current PC has 9 years, still works perfectly fine for what I do (no gaming nor AI, but web/e-mail of course, C++, photo processing and some electronic design), and will probably still survive some time. Only thing I changed (once) is the screen. My main phone is an old dumbphone with 3G (2G has been shut down here...).
A person who earns $57k/year working full time from age 18 to age 68 "only" makes $2.85 million over the course of their life.

Obviously, a certain premium is appropriate, to reflect all the value that isn't reflected in salary, like raising children, caring for elderly parents, chores around the house, voluntary work and so on. And there's no amount of money that will make a person whole again after, say, the loss of their spouse.

But if for statistical purposes we absolutely have to?

I'd say $7.5 million sounds pretty generous.
If we convert the metric to net income

| Alphabet | 4 days 20 hrs 6 mins |

Total: 26 days 5 hrs 40 mins
Firstly, this "random talking head" theory is based on basic-foundational economics: when costs go up, less people can afford those costs - and if it's survival related, they will cut down trees if that is available for heating and cooking.

There also is legitimate research showing that once people earn "$5,000" per year minimum then they are able to actually start caring about non-selfish, holistic-society wide problems - otherwise survival rightly has them concentrating on themselves; which I hope logically makes sense to you, and you don't require me to dig up the link(s)?

Second, what source(s) are acceptable-authoritative to you, e.g. what source(s) will you actually believe?

Do you also think those people are properly or correctly accounted for?

It's why we should work from first principles of logic, and where zero or very near zero people (and I don't mean millions of lives being an acceptable number) are ; do no harm.

Almost always when an article is flagged, it's done by individual users. Other than asking those users why they flagged it, there is no way to know their reasons. Currently, there is no good way of asking these users. I've long felt that adding a required "reason" field when flagging would be useful.

A slightly different question is why this article is marked as [flagged] but not [dead]. Often (usually?) when an article is flagged by multiple users, it's also killed and made invisible (except to users with "showdead" turned on). Users with sufficient karma can then "vouch" for dead stories to revive them.

But when a story is [flagged] but not [dead], no user remedy is possible. The story is penalized to not appear on the front page, but the comment page is still usable. I think this state happens after a manual review: users flag, Dan assesses, and then decides that penalized but alive is the best outcome.

But maybe there is some other way it can end up like this? I'll write to Dan and ask.

> But if you could buy a brand-new car here for $11,400 (the approximate list price for a BYD Seagull in China), I think many people would figure out a way to live with the fact that it's electric.

Besides largely handwaving away all of the infrastructure questions, I think this article might be built on a couple of mistaken premises.

1) I believe that China's EV market is heavily subsidized by their government as noted in some of the comments in the article. If China is willing to heavily subsidize US consumers buying cars, I'd be rather surprised.

2) I could be wrong on this as I'm not an expert in automotive regulations in China and the US. But a car that's made for the Chinese market might not necessarily pass US safety regulations without extensive and expensive changes.

The problem is that these religious rituals are not doing much to mitigate any of the issues.

I tend to ask "how does that solar shade coming along" only to get downvotes from believers.

Sometimes they say that the issue is more complex, such as via ocean acidification. But the problem here is that if you're doing something, that issue becomes less complex, whereas if you're doing nothing (short of those religious rituals) your issue becomes even more complex.
I hope you find some compassion about this eventually and become less hateful.

Please keep the snarky cliche responses on other forums where they belong
I've had the store up since around the start of December and I've averaged a little over one sale per day since then. The bulk of these have come from the facebook ads and whilst the cost of these isn't great, I'm selling enough that I am making a profit still. I'm also trying to compete with all the results for regular enamel badges on Google by paying a small amount to promote my link. I've got some traffic but no sales yet via that channel - although I only started this week so it's early days. Over the course of the year I'm hoping to grow some consistent organic traffic and sales so that I can rely less on paid ads.

Something that took me by surprise is how much fun it is seeing people interact with my content on facebook. A lot of people are just comenting and tagging their friends because they think it's a funny idea. Whilst I am kind of paying for the ego boost it's really nice seeing people enjoying my project even though they don't necessarily follow through and buy one.
I remember using this with Symfony 2.x
It required Java to be installed.
Well it worked, but Symfony is still a pos framework. Glad I abandoned PHP.
I digress but I still have one domain with a Symfony 2.2 project, security issues galore. I manually patched it so I can use 7.4 to run, via a docker build because the OS' version blocks openssl3. Duct tape...
And there is no upgrade path for Symfony 2.2 to latest, because the components it uses are deprecated.

On the other hand, my custom made site that I designed without a framework still today works even with PHP8.3 . Sure I had to do some minor compatibility changes.

I've been ranting about all the dogma in the PHP world back in 2010-2013. Most of it didn't make any sense. It added complexity and de development time to gain what exactly? OO fetishism. Did you know that to this day Symfony kernel copies all the request variables from the request context (aka $_GET, etc...) into memory so it can access it in a OO fashion.
The request context in PHP never changes FFS!
Using Symfony you have a largely reduced number of concurrent requests possible, about factor 4 vs plain PHP.
Anyhow... rant over
Can we get a benchmark on this?
I buy very few big-ticket items new.

Cars? Used, DIY repair for everything except tires, drive them 10-15 years until New England rust kills them.

Computers? Work buys new but I try to skip an upgrade cycle. (I'm on a 2019 MBPro; prior to that was a 2013.) For home, I bought the kids open-box low-end gaming PCs (~$650ea) but for myself am using a perfectly usable Haswell-era Dell I bought on Craigslist for $75 and upgraded with an SSD.

Phones? We buy 1-2 year old iPhones and run them usually through a second battery [DIY replaced]. (Kids and I are on the iPhone X (qty 2) and XS still.)

For me, it's partly about saving money and diverting that money towards retirement, but it's also a matter of "I don't need or want to go through the shopping and upgrade process every 18-24 months; I have better things to do."

I shop well/carefully but infrequently.
How Google perfected the web
Strongly agree.

Local, app embedded, and purpose-built targeted experts is clearly the future in my mind for a variety of reasons. Looking at TPUs in Android devices and neural engine in Apple hardware it's pretty clear.

Xcode already has an ML studio, for example, that can not only embed and integrate models in apps but also finetune, etc. It's obvious to me that at some point most apps will have embedded models in the app (or device) for specific purposes.

No AI can compare to humans and even we specialize. You wouldn't hire a plumber to perform brain surgery and you wouldn't hire a neurosurgeon to fix your toilet. Mixture of experts with AI models is a thing of course but when we look at how we primarily interact with technology and the functionality it provides it's generally pretty well siloed to specific purposes.

A purposed domain and context trained/tuned small model doing stuff on your on-device data would likely do nearly as well if not better for some applications than even ChatGPT. Think of the next version of device keyboards doing RAG+LLM through your text messages to generate replies. Stack it up with speech to text, vision, multimodal models, and who knows what and yeah, interesting.

Throw in the automatic scaling, latency, and privacy and the wins really stack up.

Some random app developer can integrate a model in their application and scale higher with better performance than ChatGPT without setting money on fire.

because they will make you (the end user) pay the bill by increasing prices?
As well: the desire to have art seen and recognized (or even monetized) puts it in the public eye in a way that can be used (legally or not) to train AIs. Going the opposite way means committing to not showing your work to humans either.
> the value of a life didn't feel proportional to the value of a lifetime, though i never really objectively understood why

Probably because no single person loses their entire remaining lifetime due to slower traffic, vs the person who dies in traffic that does.
I think there is some cost associated with iPhone app development ($100-$300 plus submission costs), as opposed to android, when it comes to publishing, it seems fair enough for an individual to charge a dollar or two to recoup that.
I don't think TFA failed to differentiate revenue and profit, though. I think the point is these companies have enough revenue to pay off the fines, and 358 days to return to profitability for the year, even starting out with an operating loss.
I prefer desktops because is something breaks I have a chance of working around it immediately (e.g. screen), and if not then I can have a replacement part sent to me in about 24 hours or less which I can install myself.
> Stuff can get complex when you're using something like htmx

Interesting to hear that after a mention of Angular. Different ideas of complexity I guess - frameworks like it give you structure but complexity is still there, and probably orders of magnitude higher.

Ultimately you want FE devs that know the web stack well - JS, CSS, HTML, browser APIs. They will be able to pick the best tools & frameworks for the job. Something like HTMx is trivial to pick up.
