> Those are not "hypermedia controls". As I said elsewhere: stop appropriating concepts for your benefit.

What would you call links & forms? The W3C seems to agree w/my language:

https://www.w3.org/2019/wot/hypermedia

"This document introduces an ontology for links and forms, the main hypermedia controls in use on the Web."

> The "basic idea of HTML" is "render a text page with a few images in one rendering pass with links to other such documents". That is it.

I don't know about that. What about forms? And script tags. And all the other stuff?

> You're not better. This is not what founders envisioned.

I don't claim to be better, i don't know what that means in this context. I'm trying to generalize what I understand to be hypermedia controls (links & forms) in HTML, in a way that conforms to Roy Fielding's definitions of the uniform interface.

I don't understand the hostility here. htmx isn't perfect or some sort of amazing piece of software, it's a flawed implementation by a flawed human of a perhaps flawed idea of generalizing hypermedia controls. But it's not obviously terrible either: people are having success using it, as a quick cruise around the other comments in this thread would indicate.
One caveat about LISTEN/NOTIFY is that channels are not first-class objects, so there's no authorization associated with them, thus anyone who can login can also NOTIFY any payload to any channel.
Yeah, because if it is in fact vital, then it's vital whether or not there's an ad campaign saying how vital it is.
I'm sure their userbase grew in a big big way during the pandemic, but honestly, by the beginning of 2020 Discord was already a massive operation. How much more headcount could pure scaling explain?

I think you're more on the money with the miscellaneous other projects. They were even trying to sell games through Discord at one point.
It’s called a deductible.

> OpenAI has vast amounts of power with the data they're collecting, but the likelihood of OpenAI using it against any individual is small enough that an individual could consider it to be outside their threat model

I think your use of the word "individual" is a bit weird here. I absolutely find it likely that OpenAI is doing individualized manipulation against everyone who uses their systems. Maybe this would be more obvious if you replace OpenAI with something like Facebook or Youtube in your head.

Just because they are using their power on many individuals doesn't mean that they are not using their power against you too.
You can get access with customer permission for a limited time window which is audited. In the normal course of business no.
why 1919 specifically?

in my opinion, it seeems to have been enormously on the rise since the end of world war 2 and especially after the end of the cold war.
It's not a baseless complaint to observe that the internet was better when you could simply click on a website and read it, as opposed to dismissing several popups about tracking cookies or like-and-subscribe.
Goal Setting as an Adventure
After using a lot of other goal-setting systems, I found myself tinkering with one of my own. I wanted an approach that was structured without being rough on my mental health, and even a little fun. The concept I settled on was likening it to a D&D party setting out on an adventure, and I'm excited to give it a try!

I don't think the person you were replying to was saying that it was going to take over as the primary reserve currency, do you?

So the US controls those international settlement rails, what does it do with that power to control BTC? Like I said, they can lean on governments, but those governments don't really have the power to ban it internally, so what can it really do with that leverage?
Don't worry, the 3080 Ti in my Kickass Desktop(tm) also spends most of its gaming time playing Princess Connect! Re:Dive and Uma Musume. :V
Sure, but the technological leaps from Pentium 4 to Core 2 Duo and then to Quad that Intel made in those days over 15 years ago, were massive enough to justify the limitation of the same chipset from the Pentium 4 era not supporting the later multi-core Core CPUs, compared to the Ryzen 2-3-4 jumps that AMD made in a similar timeframe which aren't as radically different to each other.
Not only are the search engines promoting newer content but they are also (at least Google is) penalizing sites with “old” content [1]. Somewhat related, it’s outrageous to me when a university takes down a professor’s page when they are no longer employed or come up with a standard site for all faculty that is devoid of anything interesting, just boring bios.

Since those states are receiving funds from the federal government you’re not really rewarding lower taxes. You’re just rewarding poor fiscal management.
I believe it's another client only card. For the AP side I'd recommend a Qualcomm 4x4 but it's unlikely to fit in laptops.
All non-government statistics point to us having been in a recession for the last two years. (Around the time when the two quarters of GDP shrinkage definition was abandoned.)
Off the top of my head I cannot recall any big features added to discord over the last few years. I'd like to know what those 4x more employees were working on.
Here's what I don't understand: the 737 MAX was introduced in 2017. In 2018, two of them dropped out of the sky, the grounded for a while, it turned out Boeing had lost its engineering culture and its priority for safety, and it became clear that the 737 MAX had some serious design problems that they had tried to fix in software.

And according to this article, the 737 MAX is Boeing's best selling plane ever.

Why? Why are airlines so eager to buy such a compromised model from a company that destroyed its reputation? Is it really that cheap?

Does it though? In my experience any "credit" for fair behaviour disappears very fast. Employees don't really care about fairness, they care about themselves here and now.

Equally businesses see employees as disposable, and work to maximise short term profit, not fairness. There's generally a lack of trust in one, or both sides, and that results in poor behaviour from both sides that spirals.

Sure there are great companies to work for, but all their greatness is tossed aside as soon as a better offer comes along. Employees look out for #1. Employers do the same.
And now I can't upgrade my storage or share my YouTubeTV account from my old family Workspace account. And migrating off is basically impossible, it's so frustrating.
> You'd need to have the same private key on every computer you use.

No you don't. You use different private keys on different computers, they are really not that expensive to mint. This also simplifies revocation.

> "how do I transfer my key?"

If you really, really need that, it's very simple: curl https://github.com/Joker-vD/keepassdb/raw/master/Joker_vD.kd...

> I prefer that most things I needs SSH for on a particular computer use the default private key

Okay? You use non-default keys for hosts that host git repos, everything else gets the default key. I actually use exactly this configuration: my ~/.ssh/config has 4 entries, 3 of them for git servers I have push access to, and the fourth one is for a personal VPS. Everything else gets offered ~/.ssh/id_rsa

> There are downsides from the server admin perspective too.

That's the server admins' problem, not mine.

> SSH can be very finicky when it comes to timeouts, encodings and a bunch of other options

Can't really relate here, maybe you're right. But in my experience, it either just works fine, or doesn't work at all, no middle ground. Also, "encodings"?

All in all, my experience have been that Git over SSH Just Works™ while Git over HTTPS has all kinds of strange problems, inlcuding half-assedly written HTTP-proxies somewhere in the middle.
This is an interesting definition to me. Any library is going up make implementation-specific assumptions, so unless you're using a library that's purely an interface that multiple implementations conform to (e.g. SQL, and even then not fully) then there's necessarily going to be some migration work when switching libraries.
In practice, likelyhood directly correlates with power. Perhaps there is causation (power corrupts?)

AWS isn't even hiding it anymore ...
I guess they are building other products and trying to diversify, like a game store that flopped within Discord. To make the progress/maintain what they currently have, yeah, you wouldn't even need 200 people if they were halfway decent.

Unlike Twitter or Twitch, they have to diversify, as I believe they are burning money on their core product. The benefits of Nitro is not much. But they aren't going to become profitable by paying engineers $400K on bad ideas and keeping the engineers on reserve duty, which they have probably been doing.
Also, we need the state to act in the best interest of the people it serves, instead of in being held hostage by a few with much economic weight.

The state should wield power it derives from the mandate given to it by it's people, and it should defend the capability to influence the economy with that.

This fact seems to have been forgotten since the end of the cold war, when neoliberal theory seems to have been the defacto "truth" in economics.
I accept there's some level of cost, but the prices are so high it's hard to describe it as anything other than gouging to prevent competition
And since then has an Intel socket supported more than one revolution of a tick-tock CPU generation?

Genuine question because I've now built several desktops in the Intel 'Core iX' era and have never truly had on opportunity to reuse a mobo.
I truly don't understand why this isn't more widely discussed (I've seen several "GH Actions Gotchas" articles where this isn't mentioned). Many of the community actions also seem to be designed to run as short jobs to paper around missing features (for ex: https://github.com/dorny/paths-filter ), that end up eating up an enormous amount of your minutes budget.
Interestingly (at least in Sweden) most chips used to not be vegan, but it's getting better. A lot of chips contain animal based flavor enhancers.
If that were true, they'd have a high P/E ratio. That's not the case.

Their P/E ratio is about 28. That's in comparison to e.g. MS at 38, Amazon at 81, Nvidia at 72.
it's always driver support.

just because everyone convinced you too use uefi as your true base OS doesn't mean it's not a driver issue. no matter how much you try to cover your own eyes.

same with cpu and microcode.
Thanks! I was searching for this citation to include in my comment: https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/protein-science/arti...

You can get debt cheap to fund investment. Other side is that lot of money is always searching for some kind of return. With rates going up that money can go back to boring bonds, either from governments or even big reliable companies that are unlikely going anywhere.

No need to gamble it anymore on tech companies.
The cache is on a single CCX, yes. Which is why the 7800X3D is so good: There is no second CCX.

Another big advantage is that to get them to work, they need to use higher bin chips. CCX overheats easily because the stacked cache acts like a heat shield, so you get the most power efficient ones.
It does, but they're not kernel modules and run in userspace so no game studio that values their game or protecting players from cheaters uses it, and it is not just a config change.
This reminds me of the show Silicon Valley, there is a subplot where one of the main characters is unassigned from his own project but not given a new team or project. Just, unassigned. He wanders around the building and eventually makes his way to the roof where he runs into a small crowd of other "unassigned" employees. They mostly badge into the office, head to the roof and sit up there all day doing nothing of importance.
The High C Compiler was designed and built by the geniuses at MetaWare: Frank deRemer (MIT) and Tom Pennello (UCSC), the pair who invented LALR2 parsing. I worked there in the early 90s, great memories of Tom editing compiler code in his windows terminal so quickly that the screen couldn't update fast enough to keep up with him, he continued editing 'in the blind' on unseen code. Those two are/were seriously gifted computer scientists and they gave me my start in the software industry.

The margins on gas stations are extremely bad, or at least they are in Chicago, so I can imagine there's a lot of pressure to find "value-added" products they can push over the counter to exploit their commercial real estate footprint.

Of course not, but I was only pointing out that 7 years of socket support is not unheard of as grandparent claimed.
Season 1 was pleasantly entertaining, even if the ending was a bit lame.

> If you can't update a system, you have no business exposing it to a network. Full stop.

What about isolated networks, a single Ethernet switch for example, used for industrial automation? We can't keep replacing equipment every 5 years because they keep changing crypto protocols.

Many industrial networking protocols have no security at all. No encryption. Not even a password. They achieve their security by being disconnected from the outside world, constrained to a single room or building. If an attacker can get physical access to the wires, then we have a lot more to worry about than network security.
But hey, they hired Tom Brady (who also got paid to shill for FTX) to do their EV-focused commercials. Surely it's a good business when their commercials don't, you know, extol the benefits of their company and products, but instead hire a celebrity in a pretty low-brow disgusting way to try to sell a product: by pandering to the people with "hey, this famous person is in our commercial and for money he says our product is cool, so that means you should like it too, if you want to be cool like Tom Brady". Surely their fundamentals are rock solid.
I'm somewhat surprised I'm affected, since I bought my laptop about 18 months ago. But at least their detection and notification seems quite fast, so kudos to them.

Every internal departments budget is charged for their AWS services

The citation below isn’t entirely true, internal departments aren’t charged “retail” prices. But they are charged and if you have multiple accounts opened testing different releases of an open source “AWS Solution” in multiple regions that uses the then $5K a month Kendra service along with largish ElasticSearch, you will show up on the naughty list (ask me how I know)

Informed tech discussion needs to scrub "Luddite" from its vocabulary as some kind of "gotcha" criticism. And not only that, serious study of the Luddite movement will actually inform today's conversations as we continue to see the rollout of bogus technologies which are a sign of enshittification & VC hype rather than meaningful progress.
There's a surprising number of people who think 'Just Stop Oil' is a reasonable slogan, so maybe it does.

(If the slogan was 'Gradually Replace Oil', almost everybody would agree, there'd be no excuse to block roads, throw paint around though, and earn attention and social media cred, though)
I believe that if an organization is having that many layoffs, that means they are imploding and it is not quite the same thing as these smaller rounds. So far I’ve not seen indications that software teams are experiencing this many cuts. That would significantly compromise critical infrastructure and development knowledge and domain knowledge on too many teams and cause too many products to degrade.
> “We grew quickly and expanded our workforce even faster, increasing by 5x since 2020,”

Turns out ordering people back to offices is bad for the economy. Less disposable income and free time means people spending less sharing anime pictures on discord.
> For example, there are many medical uses of plastics that save lives and restore bodily function.

Plastics also are very useful for mundane health and safety type items, because they can be low cost, impermeable, and durable. Plastic medical equipment is often safer than glass because it can be thrown away instead of reused. It also makes the equipment more accessible in lower income areas.

Eliminating all oil is just as silly of an idea as using oil for everything. There are some things it does well and some things that we can do better a different way.
The beauty of inflation, is as long as we don’t do the math no one wants to do, we’re still ‘growing’ though.
Considering how much he hated others putting words in his mouth, I feel that it's safe to say he would have despised this.

I also despise this, not out of some hackneyed respect for someone who understood that dead means dead, but for those of us who are living. We're going to lose sight of what's a person's original thoughts and what's the regurgitation of a "next token predictor" that was fed with said person's life's work.
700 million in cash is a massive warchest to be sitting on. I’m still doubtful on their path to profitability but having looked at their financials that are readily available, I’m actually more optimistic about their long term prospects. Absolutely sucks for anyone losing their job but assuming they actually deliver on the claims made here, it is an entirely reasonable severance package to me.
I don't think micropayments can work, either. The vast majority of Internet content—and I mean stuff that does get seen, not obscure sites with a dozen visits a years—isn't even worth a penny to most (not all, but most) of the people who "consume" it, but is worth a lot more than micropayment-amounts to some smaller set of people. Enforcing micropayments wouldn't, for nearly all sites that rely on ad revenue now, result in direct monetization of their reader/viewership, but in a large drop in audience (and then a scramble to better-monetize those who remain).

For most people, the alternative to browsing most of what they look at on, say, their phone day-to-day, if it vanished, isn't to pay for more content (maybe a little... but mostly it won't be the same content) but to, IDK, play the Nokia Snake Game. The value is nearly nonexistent, for most visitors.

No, the tech industry has a ~10 year boom/bust cycle. There was a lot of over-hiring during Covid, and now there is a recovery.
Qualcomm is as usual absolutely no where to be found. There's some $300-$400 AP-class m.2 cards from Compex & clones, but stock is dodgy even for these. https://www.524wifi.com/index.php/network-modules-adapters/w...

MediaTek has been doing wifi 7 PCIe chips for a bit, but it seems like they're only really available on AMD motherboards so far. :(

Reports from Intel side are that maybe they've started doing something fishy or some-such with their m.2 cards? Folks on non-Intel can't seem to use them.

The lag here is alas, in my view all too typical. I'd really love for USB & m.2 cards to be out much faster, to speed adoption, but it feels like the industry always slow walks this shit out.
Electron has literally thousands and thousands of very, very complex UI/UX features offered by the OS, plus thousands and thousands of very, very complex UI/UX features offered by a browser engine.

Godot has barely nothing compared to that, as it's not an UI toolkit and never tried to be.

Even basic things like "rendering text correctly in multiple languages, with emojis, while making it selectable with the mouse or with the keyboard" are super hard to get right, but it's a problem already solved by your OS, in a way that is not only better optimized and has less unseen bugs than a hypothetical bespoke implementation: it also looks and feels more familiar. Then there's the whole accessibility part, which has different native APIs depending on the OS.
