"Net negative" is a more neutral way to put it. The way it's stated, if there is no productivity benefit and the employee doesn't like going to the office, then it's a loss for the employee and no gain for the employer. Overall a net loss in utility, no weightings needed in that example.

not yet! i will take a look at reviews to see if they fit my usage, thanks :)
pushd also gives you simple access via `~-n` in both bash and zsh out of the box. The bonus being that `~-[n]` is correctly handled when used as an argument to other commands too, so that `cp myfile ~-4/` does what you'd expect. The zsh completion for cd functions really nicely for this too, given that you can use zstyle to annotate your entries or group dynamic completions separately.

If you're using zsh you can implement the GPs idea by hooking chpwd, so that you don't need to change your muscle memory on cd. You can even combine them by enabling the auto_pushd option and just carrying on with regular cd whilst gaining access to `~-n` with no other changes.

btlink does DNS per domain name, which you could argue is a sweet spot between too many queries and being too broad. at least in the case of the web, it works nicely.

It's a design flaw.
To send a normal person money using blik you just need their phone number, this is usually more streamlined to obtain/deal with than the traditional identifying numbers for bank accounts.

To buy something online using blik your bank's app generates a 6 digit one time code which is valid for something like 2 minutes. You enter that on the website of whoever you're trying to pay rather than give them your card number and cvv. This is nice because in addition to being a lot shorter to enter than a card number a nefarious person can't reuse the code to perform more transactions at a later date (since they don't have your card number).

Looks like it. I'm pretty sure most of the things you mentioned are either already possible or in the paged media spec / covered by paged.js.
This very cool and looks like it will help a lot of people.

Have you given any thought to the upcoming Vision Pro? I’m guessing it may depend on how it’s received by the public, if it’s worth putting the time into, but with its eye tracking and simple finger tap input, I’m thinking replacing the finger tap with a tongue tap would make for a pretty great experience.
> You’d have to be mad to buy any of these new.

I think the opposite. I've always bought 2nd hand ICE cars in the UK, as the vast majority of people do. Each one between 8 and 20 years old, each perfectly usable reliable cars.

I've looked at the prospect of 2nd hand EVs here and you see most stuff around the 10 year mark the range is in the toilet and a non starter as a main car. Even though the battery tech has improved, it's still on a clock... so even when eyeballing EVs in the ~5 year old bracket, they may be slightly better, but you still have to consider that in another 5 years it's basically going to be unusable and unsellable.

If new EVs get cheap enough (and I mean real cheap to compete with what we are used to in the old and entirely functional 2nd hand ICE market), only then does make any financial sense to most people, they are still not ready for the masses. Either the battery technology has to vastly improve in longevity or some reclaimability of value, or the cost of new one's needs to plummet.

> Why? To dictate the terms of the market. How? With military.

This has nothing to do with capitalism. Any economic system can do that. But with free markets a fair price is reached and healthy competition encouraged. Of course most governments will create monopolies instead.

> generally well known economic principle

Do you have actual examples where this happened recently or are you just talking general ideas here?

> housing

Do you mean the gray long apartment blighting the cities across Eastern Europe? Ugly, unventilated and insulated and ready to fall at the first earthquake they would be simply illegal to build today. The only reason they still keep "their value" is that we managed to overregulated the housing market into an obvious supply-constrained corner.

> USSR was outperforming the US economically

USSR was starving. USA had to send grains to avoid starvation - Kansas became Russia's bread basket.

When the Berlin wall fell the stores in the East had empty shelves while the ones in the West presented the usual bonanza of products and options.

> A great majority of people certainly cannot afford things you list

Of course not everybody has everything. But the per-capita GDP is inching closer to the West while Purchasing Power will soon be at parity. Eastern Europe's growth rate after the fall of communism beat the West's.

> plenty of people that are still quite nostalgic

They are nostalgic for their youth. Plus they are retirees and their work created little economic value during communism so their pensions are appropriately limited.

Consider https://github.com/anacrolix/btlink. It's a proof of concept, and has all the basics. I designed it and I worked for IPFS, and I am the maintainer of a popular DHT and BitTorrent client implementation.
A) There are some important differences. For instances: sizes, spacings and colors are picked from a scale, not set in pixel values (although you can do that now if you need it.)

B) There are many ways to "reinvent inline styles", this one is good, actually. I used to work with a fairly mature codebase. We enforced BEM-style names, but otherwise the CSS was extremely ad hoc (which, it is my impression, is quite normal). I ran some queries on our existing code, and found that most of our CSS classes were only used once, and most elements had only one style. They quite often had generic names, though, and when working with them you were always afraid to change a class because you didn't know if it'd been recruited elsewhere. And you certainly didn't delete anything. The growth in the size of the CSS was also quite extreme - it doubled over a year as far as I can remember. Probably because nobody ever deleted a class, even when they stopped using it, because then you would've had to check for sure that it was now unused and.. meh.

I starting referring to all this as "might as well be inline"-styles, because really, all we did was move the inline information to a different file, which... has no benefits when you think about it[0]. A thoughtful application of atomic CSS would have been a massive ergonomic improvement IMO, and I've since used Tailwind on a big project and found it much, much easier to work with over time than the other system.

[0] Yes, I know about the CSS Zen Garden. I don't think the principles apply to web applications - and, if anything, the approach to colors and font sizes in Tailwind makes theming much easier than in a messy codebase like what I used to work with.

I recently converted to electric motorbike for my transportation needs, and I don't see this reduction in value occurring in that segment, at all.

In fact, my bike (Bonfire X) has increased in value, since there are battery and motor upgrades available now to make it an even more capable machine.

The idea of getting a battery upgrade this year, and thus more power and range, is so appealing. Maybe that's not something thats too viable in automotive products, but for motorbikes it is a true sweet spot.

I imagine I've got years of upgrades ahead of me.
“I created a fire hazard and put my personal beliefs ahead of my (and my neighbours’) safety”.

I agree that there are ethical concerns around animal products, and I can see why you would try to DIY your way out of those concerns, but animal welfare isn’t the only ethical concern in the world. Deliberately, knowingly circumventing fire safety standards puts you and others at risk, and that is a pretty non-trivial ethical problem of its own.

It’s somewhat dispiriting to see somebody specifically acknowledge that they know what the wool or synthetic materials are there for, then completely fail to address it.

Hey! Been there exactly. It’s an opportunity for you to catch if you can. I suggest firstly to explain him things as they are that it will take a long time, will require to learn a lot of new things and a lot of work. If he takes on this then you will be partners in this venture and will study together how to build his game. Next regarding 3d I suggest you together with him to check the few development environments that exist for games in order for you and him to understand how much learning and effort will it take in each env. Then you can evaluate and choose from what exists today. In our case we decided to settle on a simpler 2d game first in order to achieve some results quickly. Targeting 3d in the second game. So we choose to use Construct for the first game and we actually delivered it to the Play Store (it was important to finish). We didn’t finish the second and third games but they were already started in Godot and then Unreal Engine, respectively. This is our experience. Your mileage may vary.
It was closer to 30 years ago when I used started learning C using DJGPP, in DOS. 1996 or 1997 maybe?

You do not need segment registers much if you stick to the tiny model. Here is someone compiling Rust to a 16-bit DOS COM executable:

https://github.com/o8vm/rust_dos

Not sure what the approach would be for them to expand that to support segments.

In DJGPP there are macros to allow your protected mode application access physical real-mode addresses (like when you want to write to video RAM). I don't know if IA-16 also does something like that, or if they added far/near keywords to the language like old 16-bit C compilers did (at least the ones I used).

Free Pascal has helper-functions to work with segment+offset pointer pairs, also without having to modify the language itself. I think that would work well enough in C, but I guess the old method of adding non-standard keywords was seen as slightly more convenient.
Higher speed and scientific cameras tend to be black and white to increase sensitivity, speed and pixel count. Looks like the camera they used is also B&W in this case.

This is why colors wouldn't be practical. Also, when you're tracking things in high-ish speeds, motion blur can shift colors because of Bayer filtering, when you're looking from that distance. Yes, demosaicing will remove the shift, but the resulting color might be different.

So, B&W is the safest bet with minimum technical complexity.

Options I see:

1. Games with highly modifiable level building tools: Game Maker's Garage, Mario Maker, LittleBigPlanet and (a big step up) Dreams
2. actually playing some indie games with them to try and give them an idea of what's remotely feasible
3. if the latter gets them interested in 2D possibilities focusing on pixel art and having you piece the bits together
4. if they're still interested start looking at some game making tools; they might want to just focus on pixel art or music or who knows what at that point instead too?

Really the hardest bit I see is shifting their thinking on what a game is; atm it's probably ramming in every idea they have when it needs to be focusing on one idea and refining the hell out of it.
I'm completely opposite, so much energy wasted dealing with people. Just give me the requirements, only contact me for technical reasons please.

A lot of interesting comments here about the technology and the bias of the Torygraph, but there's also a fundamental reality of car ownership in the UK to take into account.

The overwhelming majority of the UK's housing stock predates widespread car ownership. There are entire streets of Victorian houses with paved-over front gardens because without that, the residents wouldn't be able to park their cars. Even the post-war New Towns gave fewer than one off-street parking space per house. Parking on the street is not a casual undertaking, either: houses are frequently only as wide as a car is long, so you get just one on-street parking space per house.

The recently-built housing estates often have small car parks near clusters of houses rather than a dedicated parking space right next to the house, and for the houses that do have a garage, garages are built to a standard size from the 1930s, so you can't fit a modern car in it, it's just a storage room.

If you're well off, none of this is a problem:you have a large garden, with a custom built garage that actually fits a car, but there's only so many such people.

The consequence of all this is that there's only so many people who can instal an EV charger at their home. Only so many of those people want an EV at this time. Our housing stock has imposed a limit on the adoption of EVs.
I think it's also possible in Stimulus, if i'm not mistaken. Because i kinda prefer that one.

It is much better for govt as well. Instead of having untracked cash flows not paying taxes, now you can ensure taxes are paid (in EU seller is responsible for paying taxes). So your local govt can sell you this new (old) system as being just like cash, decentralised, anonymous, with no banking institutions at play, while having a closer watch on increasingly convoluted tax codes.

As for donations, it's still good. Instead of having vast amount of cash flow unnoticed as bribes/corruption, now you atleast know that the politician received that amount of money. I don't see how it is worse that normal cash.if one can cap amount of anonymous donations with banks and cash, why not do the same here?
I wonder this too but don’t manage it myself.

This brings back memories! Back when I wanted to get into programming, I had no idea where to start. I found a book about C++ at the library and it was one of the only programming languages I had heard about before (little did I know!). I believe it was "Teach yourself C++ in 21 days" or something like that. It came with a copy of DJGPP on CD-ROM.

Looking back it's amazing how much easier it is to learn stuff nowadays. The internet is truly a blessing.

A slightly different take is available if you're a zsh user, as you can take advantage of named directories to replace the aliases. If you do this the directories you've added will show up in regular completions and be available as arguments to commands too. For example, `hash -d name=location` allows you to use `~name` for the path.

`run-help hash` for the basic interface, or zshexpn(1) for the gory details including fancy dynamic naming.
