Nope. People in general prefer to avoid large and dense cities ( https://afry.com/en/newsroom/press-releases/new-survey-shows... ).

It's just that only the US offers an affordable option to live in spacious suburbs. Europe simply doesn't have anything similar.
React was a massive improvement over Ember.js, Backbone.js and their ilk, which at the time as a young dev I couldn’t grasp by myself.

Winworld is amazing. I love getting lost in old software from the past .
I live in a city that has some of these going through it, and I can say that my opinions changed dramatically after moving here, with respect to this idea. Our real estate agent, in hindsight, had employed numerous subtle tactics to discourage us from taking serious interest in homes that were within a quarter mile or so of these lines, although I was completely oblivious to what they were doing at the time.

What I did not appreciate, but they did, is that these rails can bring an absolutely astonishing amount of noise into a town, and behind that a long trail of associated social ills. There is a gradual sifting of residents within a certain distance of these trains, based on who is either loud themselves and thus doesn't mind, or else must tolerate the amount of noise these things make.

Our town is old enough that some of the 'nicer' neighborhoods predate the introduction of the rails, so there isn't a strong confounding signal of 'bad' neighborhood correlation at work here. In at least one case there was a house we pushed past our agent's scheduling machinations to see for ourselves, and would likely have closed on had we not happened to visit at just the right time, when a multi-engined repositioning train (which we had no idea was a very common guest on what we thought was a mild mannered commuter rail line) came through. Though unseen and multiple blocks away, it still shook the floorboards as it passed.
Key words to search for are "delay-tolerant networking" and "bundle protocol". No real-world deployments yet, but lots of recent attention from IETF and the like.

Appreciate the additional info. I do find it interesting that the Seattle Times has basically no positive coverage of Dan Price, despite numerous accounts I've read of prosperity from the change. That said, there is likely merit in the complaints, and it's good to remember that there are often two sides to stories.

At MIT, I had a friend who wired his speakers with flat ribbon cable, alternating conductors so as to minimize impedance.

Me, I used 150 foot 18-gage twisted pair when I put my speakers down in the courtyard. I can't say the sound was perfect, but it was at least pretty good, which tells me 20 feet of the same would be plenty good inside a room.

It is ridiculous to suggest that React is worse today than ten years ago. Remember all that time people spent battling their build scripts? Or what about the obtuse 3rd-party state management libraries everyone used to augment class components? It was torturous from the start.

I really don't know why stereo components do not communicate digitally via ethernet cables. The only thing that won't work for is the output of the power amp.

My stereo is the usual rat's nest of various cables and connectors. I also have a tub full of various plugs, adapters, etc. Wouldn't it be nice to have a receiver that just had an ethernet connector on the back? Run it to an ethernet switch, and plug your turntable, TV, cassette player, into the switch?

One cool consequence is your components could be anywhere in the house, as any component could play over any powered speaker in the house.
It's also interesting that at one point, Nvidia's chips were going to support both x86 and ARM (see Project Denver), but x86 support was scrapped due to Intel's patents.

> I think this is not even really a problem with the peer review system, but a problem with the (mostly, nonexistence of) an in depth science journalism field. Peer review just means it is ok to stick in a scientific journal and have peers read it… people with advanced bullshit detectors and nuance parsers in a particular domain.

I don't agree with this. There is deception in its name: peer review. Even "preprints" (things on arxiv and not accepted in journals or conferences) are still read and evaluated by peers. LK-99 is a great example of this, and that's not an uncommon process. The problem is that venues perpetuate the idea that being published within them is a mark of validity. But, like you suggest, it isn't. And "peer review" doesn't mean that it is just okay for peers to read it because we're reading each others works long before they are released in venues. Unfortunately most people (including researchers) don't have advanced bullshit detectors or nuance parsers. These are often fairly narrow and there's not that strong of alignment between the subject matter that a reviewer is reviewing and their niche domain expertise. I agree journalism and politicians need to do better, but so do we in the scientific community. There's more nuance. It is definitely a problem with the brick manufacturer if the marketing team implies you don't need mortar or even says "generally you don't need mortar."

> This happens only when layoffs are small and targeted.

Thank you for speaking on my behalf. No, it does not. In my experience, I am never concerned with small and targeted layoffs because I am never in the bottom 25% performers in my team. Instead, when the layoff are mass and broad, only then, have I experienced those personalised meeting with senior management. (To be crystal clear: I was only invited to those meetings when I was viewed as a top-top performer. Not always.)
I have recently started to play around with the lightweight Emacs mode, "HOWM" which was written about 20 years ago by a Japanese author, who still maintains it today.

The howm-mode shows you a summary view, comprised of information (just the title/heading) from the (configurable) last 20 notes you have made. Everything goes under ~/howm/YYYY/MM e.g. ~/howm/2024/01 for notes I am making this month.

It has a simple way to enter schedule, todo, deadline, etc. which it shows just below the header that has single-key commands (s for case-insensitive searching, c to create a new note, etc.) for searching, navigation, new notes.

The genius of howm is that you can write and have very simple back and forward links to any file, URL, or tag, any kind of text etc., and you write "fragments" that is, whatever the smallest unit of text you want - it just needs a title plus anything else you want to add to it.

When you save the file, you hit Ctrl-C plus ",," and are back in the summary view.

So you can have very small sized units/fragments, which are very fast to create and save, but due to the forward and back links and the ease of searching (which will collate in a temporary list, everything found), you can "create fragmentarily but view/search collectively" as the documentation puts it.

My next step is to author HOWM notes in AsciiDoc or Markdown format which can easily be fed (since each note is a separate text file) into a converter for fancier output.

Syncthing easily keeps things in sync between my desktop and laptop.

In the very best of FOSS tradition, someone else wrote up a full PDF manual, in English. https://github.com/Emacs101/howm-manual/blob/main/Howm_tutor...
I am not a (current) developer, though I have more dev experience than most laypeople. I have enough experience with languages to pick up a new one relatively easily but I’ve never done anything with a functional language. I installed NixOS after playing around with nix (the package manager) in Fedora.

1. While the WHAT of NixOS was obvious from the start, I have never had a more difficult time understanding HOW to get there with a piece of technology. The documentation is hilariously inconsistent.

2. I have also never encountered a more satisfying, useful, and time-saving piece of technology. I had a computer crash and it took me 15 minutes to be back to where I was on a completely different machine with about 2 commands.

3. Time-saving other than the vast learning curve anyway.

4. Unlike some tech projects, it’s not hard because it’s incomplete or poorly structured. It’s hard because it’s doing something different. (It’s arguable how different it is in 2024, but that’s a different conversation.)

5. To create my child’s account, I spent about 10 minutes editing a copy of my config to pick and choose the packages he needs, and it deployed (on the first go) in about 10 minutes, fully configured.

Projects like fleek that put a simplified face on nix are incredibly valuable, because they can unlock 65% of the benefit of the platform with almost zero effort. I can’t tell you if the time investment for the extra 35% is worth it for someone managing family computers, but, y’all, I spend less time fiddling with them now and they break less often. That’s a … plus?

I agree, sending Alphabet Soup down those cables isn't going to end well. Those things aren't designed to carry liquids.
Not at all. I don't think the union makes the Boeing workers in Washington more competent. It's the decades of experience and tribal knowledge that have been passed down in the Renton and Everett factories that make those workers more competent.

At any rate, I'm not trying to start an argument about unions. I only brought it up to underscore my point that despite completely sympathizing with their motivations, I still think Boeing's management made a mistake. It's not cognitive dissonance to have a nuanced view of the world and to acknowledge that there are real world exceptions to what I might otherwise believe based purely on my general biases. If that's difficult for you to understand, I am genuinely sorry for you.
"But if anything, it strengthens the point."

No, it really doesn't. The value in Fountain has nothing to do with the tangible piece of art itself. That's what I'm trying to communicate to you.

Attempting to boil "art" down to any one quantifiable aspect is impossible. That is the point of the anti-art like Fountain.

In other words, I disagree with your assumption that highly polished corporate art is superior to home made "mediocre" art. I grew up with TV shows like 12 OZ Mouse, Home Movies, Shin Chan, Tom goes to the Mayor, etc. If you think running those shows through generative AI would improve the shows... I would say again you don't understand what made that art good.

At best you could try to make a case for "death of the author" but I'm not sure if that principal applies to art that never had an author.
> It'll still be bad architecture with or without hooks

The companies I've worked with had hundreds of engineers contributing to the react codebases and people are just trying to crank out features by the deadline. I'd rather just work with tools that don't require the usage of such obvious footguns. You can code solid-js and svelte and never use effects (even though they do offer them unfortunately).
I had bigPharma ads as much as the next person, but "irrelevant" might be a bit too harsh. For some of the things being targeted, just the implication that the prescription will allow you to do said irrelevant activities would be a huge selling point.
The next phase of diabetes treatment just may be sleep.

30% of people get insufficient sleep, which directly leads to increased insulin resistance the following day, along with increased appetite and craving for sugary and fattier foods, and a decrease in willpower.

Diabetes needs to be treated as a whole person health, diet is absolutely key, but so is sleep and particularly as we age, as slow-wave sleep decreases naturally with age (this is what we're working on).

Why the hovercraft's time might have finally arrived
> the dev lead knowledge, the experience of the team and the learning vs churn out features culture

This could be said of any team using any technology. If the team is better at using it, and they are provided more time to use it properly, then they'll make a better product. That's not unique to React.

React sucks because its scope creep makes it difficult to maintain, and there's a pretty low ceiling for the end user's experience. Yes, better teams can make better products with React than worse teams, but that doesn't mean that either end product is any good.
What surprises me is the amount of programmers and analysts that I meet the don’t do this yet. Writing complex, useful SQL queries is probably the most valuable thing that ChatGPT does for me. It makes you look like a god to stakeholders, and “I’m not strong in SQL” is no longer an excuse for analysis tasks.
Excellent software. It's fully featured (I love the SFTP support and being able to uncompress), customizable, and open source.

Interference will not generate significant current in the cables, but for a sufficiently long run, it can generate measurable voltages at your amplifier output. Depending on the power stage, this can cause your amplifier to react to the interference (e.g. if there is high-impedance negative feedback). With just the correct setup, a poorly designed power stage, and a long enough speaker cable run, you can pull in an AM station.

Yes, it's annoying and only very noticeable when the speakers were supposed to be silent, but weren't and hissed and hummed instead.

Swapped for better shielded cables and the hiss/hum went away and it was dead silent when it was supposed to be.

But it was also only noticeable on the satellite speakers that had 50ft+ cable runs. It was inaudible on those short <6ft runs.

I also seem to have beyond normal hearing, and can hear some electrical devices or high pitched sounds where others don't seem to.

Last year I was in a mall where they had a Tesla store and it was emitting a horrible high pitched sound.

Where I live some houses have Seagull scaring devices and they also emit a horrible high pitched squeal which I'm guessing others can't hear, otherwise it would honestly drive you nuts.
This is a caricature of clinical psychoanalysis and is more applicable to other therapies. For example, the initial moments of CBT are "psychoeducation", where the therapist sketches out with magic markers a bunch of categories (feelings, thoughts, behaviors, emotions) and their subcategories, and the patient learns to see themselves in these ontological terms. Suggestibility is the cornerstone of these interventions.

Every psychoanalyst of course has their theoretical meta-psychology, but every clinical psychoanalyst knows that they must fight to abandon it at the door as they confront every analysand anew. Psychoanalysis is not a matter of instructing the patient of the death drive, of resistance, of the Oedipus complex, and so on. (Freud was wrong about why his intervention with Little Hans "succeeded".) Freud himself searched for something beyond hypnosis because the hypnotic technique required a susceptibility of the patient to suggestion, and furthermore required a constant relationship with the patient, otherwise the patient would invariably suffer a symptom relapse. Relate this to the dismal long-term rates of regression of CBT patients. (And this is the forbidden evidence of this "evidence based therapy".)

The analysand enters the analytical relationship supposing (as you have supposed) that the analyst knows something crucial that the analysand does not. So what happens as the analysand comes to realize that the analyst does not, in fact, possess this knowledge? The analyst indeed knows they don't know, but this is presumably nothing like what you assume the analyst supposes themselves to know.

The analyst is, in their role as an analyst (and not a therapist), merely the secretary of the analysand. They "take notes" on what the analyst says, in order to help show the analyst what they've said.
My junior developers started to come to me with the question: how can I do this without useEffect? Because they already know that their PR will be rejected. Usually we can figure it out within a few minutes, and make everything less complicated.

People are just way too much thinking imperatively, like decades of OOP thought them (and many of their educators). Most naive useEffects are just masked derived state.
Inefficient, yes, but much cleaner than this. This would give you cancer for any extended period of use.
Thank you! These links paint a much different picture than the WaPo story, which is bordering on dishonest with phrasings such as "$1M stereo" and "modest split-level ranch". From these links, this project seems to be more appropriately described as a fancy and bespoke DIY home renovation. That wide two story shot looks quite gorgeous, independent of all the acoustic treatment. And yeah it is a sad fact that if you do extensive customization to your house the market doesn't really care, while new builder grade crap plus a coat of beige paint will be enthusiastically rewarded.
Exercise is probably the most important thing you could do! Hope you’re able to stick to it and improve! The other thing that helps me is cutting off sugar - not carbs or starch just actual sweet sugar. In coffees and desserts. Makes me eat less!
> The amount of unsafe code used to implement C# vastly outweighs the amount in Rust's standard library.

According to bing.com chat, https://github.com/dotnet/runtime has 3.5M LOC, and https://github.com/rust-lang/rust has 6M LOC. The right panel of https://github.com/dotnet/runtime says 80% of the .NET runtime is written in C#.

This makes me wonder, do you happen to have a link for your “vastly outweighs” statement?
Sick the story, sick the designer
My point is that the naive approach to the problem doesn't even need to use recursion, nor does the final solution, even if the path towards reasoning about the complexity calls on recursion. I prefer a narrower scope in definition for memoization, but I accept that there are many who would prefer the broader definition. I think perhaps there is even a grey area around the term, and cache, and working memory, and more. Is it no longer memoising if you're using it to build an index table? Is a cache implementation of an @memoize function decorator still memoising? IDK, it's not my intention to split hairs here.

For what it's worth, I reread the 1975 paper about the linear-space version of LCS, they do not mention memoization, even though recursion is used in both the algorithm pseudocode and in the complexity analysis. The term memoisation was coined in 1968.

The playstation 3 was the last "console". Everything that came after was general purpose computing crap.
What else have you personally had experience with? Angular would not be in my list of better alternatives.

My comparison is always with Svelte / Vue, and also what we had in previous eras (Backbone, Knockout, etc). HTMx is picking up steam too. We used to push out interactive UI in days/weeks, and mind you, in the past websites did not look all the same. There were no component libraries to start from. Today it seems most React projects are planned in months/quarters despite being built atop a mountain of third-party code, all meant to 'speed things up'.

What we do today is not faster at all, too much time is wasted on tooling and issues that arise from React's architecture (hooks, ssr, data loading, error handling, async issues, black-box performance issues, dependency hell).
Technology ages, I remember liking React a lot way back in the day. Things improve and circumstances change. Things like the virtual dom are just not needed anymore and I just want my frontend code to be deterministic, it's not like I'm writing a distributed system, it's a client ui. So calling React "fundamentally bad" is harsh but I think given the state of the world today it's true.
