Read "Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming" book by Stephen LaBerge.
It proposes a number of techniques, some of them works better than other for different people.
If you are not predisposed to lucid dreaming (some people are), then the main obstacle is will or motivation to keep practicing.

One that worked for me is having a mechanical counter of some sort (like lap couter or just miniature code lock so you can use it as a counter), which you reset every morning and increment during the day every time after you ask yourself "Am I dreaming?" and doing some basic "reality check" (e.g. trying to breathe in through your nose when you pinch it, or checking clocks twice in a succession and validating that it makes sense, or just looking at your hands). The goal is to consistently do a number of reality checks during your waking life, which inevitably will increase the chance that you will do it in your dream. That will likely would cause you to wake up immediately for couple of times, but then you'll get used to it. It works simply because "if you don't ask yourself that you are dreaming during your waking life, what is the chance that you'll ask yourself it during sleep?".

There are number of other and more advanced techniques that borderline with "magic" to me, like falling asleep without loosing conciousness (and then waking up the same way), but I had this experience only a couple of times I guess.
The multi billion dollar vitamin industry disagrees. Kidding. Only half. I dislike this saying because it doesn't mean anything and just makes some VCs think they're saying something that sounds smart.

There are frameworks that genuinenly improve the development experience for certain uses cases. As with many things, it's important to still now the basics (in this case, CSS), but why not use Tailwind if the philosophy aligns with yours and makes you more productive?

Sure, switching frameworks ever few months to try the hottest shit out there is also not great, and many people overuse frameworks (e.g., React is an overkill for many (most?) applications I have seen). But that doesn't mean there isn't merit in frameworks.

Something also has to be done about the unjust consequences of plea bargaining. Many were convicted on the basis that they admitted to crimes that they did not commit.

I think we also have to get rid of Magistrate's courts and private prosecutions. It's ridiculous that these still exist in a modern state that operates under the presumption of the rule of law.
How do you increase your melatonin?
Yes, I believe we are talking about different things. In my experience the hadoop (or mapR) cluster ended up getting used for a bunch of heterogenous workloads running simultaneously at different priorities. High priority workloads were production impacting batch jobs where downtime would be noticed by users. Lower priority workloads were as you describe--analysts running ad-hoc jobs to support BI, data science, operations, etc.

Hbase also ran on that infrastructure serving real-time workloads. Downtime on any of the Hbase clusters would be a high severity outage.

So minutes/mo of downtime would certainly have unacceptable business impact. Another important thing is replication. Drives do fail, and if a single drive failure brings down prod how long would that take to fix?

To be clear in general my opinions are aligned with the article, I think using the whole machine at high utilization is the only environmentally (and financially) responsible way. But I don't believe it's true that purely vertical scaling is realistic for most businesses.

EDIT: there are also security and compliance concerns that rule out the scenario of copying data onto an employee laptop. I guess what I'm trying to get at is the scenario seems a little contrived.
No, but you'd be doing other things. Not allocating the effects of tying up people towards the energy cost of providing a service creates perverse incentives.
I use the SinglePage add-on for Firefox (think it is available for Chrome as well?) to save the current page DOM to HTML as a self-contained file (inlined CSS and data:-URLs for all images) with no dependencies and all the scripts removed etc. It is not perfect, and I do not trust browsers to always remain backwards compatible, but I prefer it to save pages as PDF or as multiple files.

Interestingly one of the few pages I ever saw it fail on was this article on portable EPUBs. Guess it has too much magic going on to make the formatting work. The saved page is perfectly readable, but the style is nothing at all like what the original page was for some reason.

I like how fbreader on Android just displays all books exactly the same, and as configured in the app rather than using any of the styling from the EPUB file. I never noticed that it tried to apply CSS or run scripts included in files and I hope it never tries to do either of those things. Loading external dependencies sounds like an even worse idea and I did not think that was even allowed.
I think this would be a better argument if Apple wasn't so careless with what they accept on the App Store. There are scam apps, apps which try to trick users into accepting subscriptions, tonnes and tonnes of "casino for children" games, games which clearly try to trick children into spending their parents' money, etc.
> this almost means a queen, but a promotion to knight can also be useful

So can a promotion to rook or a bishop, if for example promotion would cause a stalemate, especially if you're in a zugzwang.

Although such situations in actual real-world chess are _exceedingly_ rare, they make for a good puzzle material.
No! I want the entire internet, sorry, world wide web to go bankrupt. I only want to see things that you want to be there not things that you want to get paid for.

Inline CSS already lets you have the styles in the template.
Do you realize that yourself, in your own reply, pointed out the fact that it is indeed and non-viable option.

As in it doesn't exist because there is no money in it because it doesn't change the company bottom line in any meaningful way that would warrant additional hiring.
And it is not even viable for a single person with reduced running cost to make it a viable revenue stream because they would be too few people purchasing it; since as long as the (maybe worse but still largely viable) official electron option would exist there would be no point for a user to spend money.

The development has stopped, because it doesn't make enough money for even a single guy to justify spending time on it. At some point even if it's a passion hobby project, making software is actual work if you are bound to another entity roadmap...

If the resources are so mismanaged as to lose money, the taxpayers have to pay for it. The government with all its vast resources could put most businesses out of commission because it has no obligation to be profitable.

What if helium is cheap and relatively abundant though? Like the way we treat water. Even water has to be sold at a (preferably low) profit so that all the facilities and infrastructure around it can be maintained. In some cases the government does end up paying for water infrastructure but this is often initial setup costs that would be too huge and risky to provide affordable water to small communities if the true cost had to be paid by them in a reasonable time frame.
I feel we need a club for grumpy old men that yell at clouds! I'm only 34 but after 10 years doing this I now fully understand what my seniors were trying to teach me when I started.

There's plenty of criticism about GDP

https://time.com/5118026/gdp-metric-success-wealth/

https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2018/11/forget-gdp-for-the-21...

And many cultures think that a few large companies getting richer while the rest of the country gets poorer is not a worthy goal. You may not think that, but given that plenty of people think GDP is terrible now.

I'm not sure how you can assert a future culture will look back and go

"In the future, humans will look back on our era and wonder why we accepted the idea that governments should have so much power to interfere with the economy"

I personally think it's much more likely they'll look back in disgust at the companies that put GDP above other factors, and the governments which didn't interfere with the economy would be the ones to blame given that many cultures today think that.
I think https://vespa.ai/ has the right approach in this space by focusing on being hybrid - vectors alone aren't great for production use cases, it's the combining of vectors+text that lets you use ranking to get meaningful result.

(I'm an investor so I'm biased; but it's also the reason why I invested)
Except that this regulation only applies to so-called gatekeepers, so it doesn't affect 99.9% of the companies out there. Even if you made your own phone with it's own app store, until you have a sizable part of the market, you won't be a gatekeeper under the DMA.
> That’s three times now with the accusations of trolling

Two times, and the second time wasn’t even an accusation.

> I’ve all but googled the source material for you.

Yeah but.. I’m not asking you to! I’m telling you that I find your words, your sentences, so full of meta-metaphors and commas and cultural references that I can’t parse them anymore. I’m telling you that I’m too stupid to understand you and that others are likely too (and judging by some sister comments, that’s true).

I should have assumed positive intent, that’s my bad, and I apologize. But I never asked you to layer on the evidence, I merely asked you to present it in simpler terms. You then ignored that completely, multiple times, and kept arguing with me on the topic at hand. But I don’t even disagree with you!
> his "Structured Programming" approach makes absolutely zero guarantees on correctess or even verifiability

That was never the claim. The claim was humans using "Structured programming" produced code with less bugs than humans using other methods. "Humans" being the key word here, a compiler will happily produce perfect programs every time just using goto's (because there is no choice in assembler). But when humans use goto's it's usually a disaster.

History has vindicated him big time. Many modern languages don't have goto's, precisely for this reason.
IME development resources will always expand to the available budget and time anyway, the programming language or programmer skills really don't matter much.

Also, whether C is actually more or less "productive" than other languages for specific tasks isn't all that clear either. For the things I pick C for (for instance cross-platform libraries sitting between OS APIs and user code, and home computer emulators), it is also the most productive option (in the sense that higher level programming languages wouldn't make me more productive, because all that's needed for this type of stuff is functions, structs, loops, conditionals and a handful of math operators - and all those things are in C). High level features like automatic memory management don't make much sense when there's hardly any heap memory to be managed, and a rich stdlib also isn't needed when all you do is number crunching and bit twiddling.
it’s ok for putting something together quickly and it’s a garbage tool for maintenance - I feel unfortunate having inherited a codebase with Tailwind.

> most modern CSS solutions are massively overthought

Example is Tailwind. Which in the end is same as inline CSS.
I love tailwind too. The article did not convince me as there was also no real solution / alternative proposed.

I have written custom css since the year 2000 and using tailwind just makes me much faster (is like setting flags) and simply by reading it, I understand how an element looks like. No matter if my past-self wrote it or another engineer.

It can pollute the HTML (although @apply helps a lot to define your reusable .title, .card, .btn, .btn-lg, .btn-primary etc), but at least it is written in HTML and not in JS, which is even harder to transfer to other eco-systems.

Also extending styles (tailwind config) is amazing if you want to reuse your styles in other projects.
Agree that the courts are somewhat to blame.

But really, to me, the full blame should be on the Post Office, and those involved.

Trying to conceal problems? Purposefully ignoring bugs? Not listening to, well, everyone. Lying to the courts?

People need to be in jail, and starting at the top.

I'm not going to absolve Fujitsu, but I have worked government contracts in Canada. They constantly change, morph requirements, not for any real reasons other than "Oh you build this entire thing? We didn't think of X, let's add that".

Meanwhile, X basically means an entire rewrite.

I've even had situations where "Let's add X" happens, then after done, "Aw, never mind, remove that".

It's a different world.
>Do you seriously think Apple would have made a big song and dance about their proposal around CSAM scanning if the intent was to implement it regardless?

I think the reason why people are angry at Apple in spite of their climbdown is because Apple did a lot of damage announcing it the way they did.

Far from "inviting a debate" on how or whether this can be done in a safe and privacy friendly way, they made an announcement explaining exactly what they were going to do and how it was going to work.

The message was received loud and clear by politicians who are up against critics disputing the technical feasibility of surveilling the entire population in a safe and privacy friendly way.

Apple has dealt a hammer blow to privacy advocates. The effects of Apple's announcement have been percolating through parliaments and law enforcement agencies all over the world ever since.

Add to that the effects of Apple's side-loading ban, which is hands complete control over what software people can and cannot install to authoritarian rulers across the planet, their decision to hand over Chinese iCloud operations (including encryption keys) to a state owned company, and their willingness to make questionable security claims in defense of their own business model.

The picture that emerges is not pretty.

At the same time, Apple provides privacy protections to hundereds of millions of people who would not otherwise have them - realistically speaking.

If mobile OS competition was between Google, Microsoft and Samsung, there would not be a setting to blanket disable all tracking requests. Markets often end up in an equilibrium where certain choices simply don't exist.

Regulating this space without doing more harm than good is very difficult. We're going to have to wait and see whether the EU has done a good job this time.

It's interesting how the government can manipulate the labour market to such great extent.

Unless the worker can provide profits that would cover the interest rate on his wage with some margin, he is out.

It is some perverted form of central planning, really.
I don't know about you, but I've never seen anyone create a user interface by writing down the full, semantic markup, and then proceed to create CSS for that finished HTML structure. Instead, it's usually an iterative process of adding HTML, styling that, then adding more content.

That isn't even related to Tailwind, or any other CSS framework -- just that Tailwind allows you to stay in the HTML (or component) context, without having to switch to a stylesheet there.

Your JSON comparison doesn't fit: We're talking about styling, not business logic. But if you mean that I would need to define `"userAgeOver21": true` in a JSON file instead of having some `{{ %if user.age > 21 }}` in the code, then yes, I'm firmly in the latter camp. Not having to switch context often overrules pedantic purity every time.
yeah, it works, but try getting back to this codebase in 3 months and then refactor something small. worse, it’s someone else who will have to do it after you.
Restricted keyways try to protect against the following threats:

* Unauthorised key duplication. Think of a college dorm where residents all have keys, but you don't want them making copies, and keeping access to the dorm after they move out. So they use a design that most locksmiths don't have key blanks for.

* Basic keyholders getting masterkeys by taking locks apart. Think of a college dorm where they want every resident to be able to open the front door, but not each others' dorm rooms, and they want the fire department to have one key that will work for all the rooms. Because of the way masterkey systems work, a resident can take the lock off their dorm room door, measure some internal components, and figure out the cuts on the fire department master key. Restricted key blanks make this a lot harder.

Of course, this doesn't provide perfect security. Restricted keyways don't protect against someone with a CNC milling machine, or someone with a set of files and a lot of patience, or someone willing to break a window.

Modern buildings rarely install new masterkey systems these days - electronic locks are a much better system.
Just usual trick of practicing looking at hands often during the day to make it a habbit works well enough for inducing them.

Any many more won't be able to because their parents don't own a home?

Carry on like that and you end up with the landed gentry and feudalism.

Far better to ensure millennials (many who are now in their 40s) and zoomers can own a home regardless of their parents. One way would be to prevent generational transfer of wealth -- meaning that everyone is in the same boat, you have to work on your merits, rather than who your parents are.
My setup requires multiple monitors. Having at least 2 monitors then a laptop on the side. Turn all notification sound off and make sure the slack red dot stays on laptop screen, on the edge of your peripherals.

While focusing on work it will be harder to notice the red dot but won't be turned off.

Music helps when it's hard to focus, I prefer some genre of instrumentals.
I think this is a similar situation where business leaders and managers get away from any meaningful repercussions just like in the '08 negligence of regulators and bankers, or with Grenfell tower where the cladding vendor managers faked the tests, or knew of the faked tests. I think the issue comes down to the link between business and Government and how to save itself from embarrassment and extra work rectifying the situation, civil servants and ministers will try to speed up the cover up.

You got bigger problems

Yes, you have. And this is really, really common in large scale web apps, especially where they've been mostly written by people who are 'backend' or 'full stack' developers.

Tailwind didn't just spring forth as a tool to screw with web developers. It was developed as a solution to a problem. That problem being bad, unmanaged CSS at scale. If you don't have that problem obviously Tailwind isn't going to look useful to you.
> Thinking about this a little, it's not clear to me that AI would have a problem with death. We seem unnecessarily asymmetric, caring a lot about our ego not existing in the future when we hardly consider that it already didn't exist for a very long time in the past, but that's probably evolutionary due to the embodiment?

Sure, but that same chasm of difference which means we can't guess at that (despite it being so innate to many of us), means we could very well accidentally cause suffering or induce rage even when we think we're being nice.

This is false and people need to stop parroting it..

Inline styles have high specificity and are often the culprit of specificity clashes.

Inline styles don't follow a design/theme, tailwind has sensible defaults for spacing/colours and consistency etc.

Inline styles are even more verbose than a tailwind class list.

Tailwind has responsive classes out of the box.

Inline styles don't really support pseudo classes....

Technically, if we'd consider corporations part of the government (which we arguably should; many acts of regulation that would be impractical to implement directly through the government are farmed out as the responsibility of corporations as a pre-req of doing business), many surveillance capitalism patterns would become fraught by default.

The "corporations aren't government entities" defies logic. As without government recognition, they aren't even a thing.

As a certified grumpy old developer I spent years writing off the "X but in Rust" projects, but I have to confess that a lot of good things with meaningful improvements have come from the rewrite-everything-in-Rust movement.

I've not used Typst and not authored much LaTeX (but worked on a project with a group of scientists who used nothing but LaTeX) and can see obvious advantages to Typst. Same with many, many other Rust libraries.
