No, if you actually make modules with jQuery where it’s creating it’s own DOM tree, it’s no different from what React & Co are doing.

Reasoning about the DOM structure has almost never been an issue in my almost 20 years of professionally doing this junk. The complexity has always been elsewhere.

Re-inventing the wheel is not the problem. It's copying the wheel that is the problem.
I strongly disagree. The point of the whole SerenityOS project is to do everything from scratch, both for fun and to bring a bit of innovation in a classic environment. I see this "rebuild everything from scratch" effort as beneficial in many areas of browser development, since there are technologies shared by most browsers that create a sort of sub-monopoly, independent from the actual browser marketshare.

Take for example the JavaScript engine. Spidermonkey and V8 are much more prominent in browser engines, even the lesser known ones, compared to JavaScriptCore. Spidermonkey for example is used in Firefox, Servo and Flow (Eikoh's browser engine), while V8 is used in every chrome derivate and most javascript implementations outside of a browser. JavaScriptCore is literally used in only one browser engine, and while WebKit is rather popular, it doesn't change the fact that the browser-grade javascript engine market is dominated by only two engines.

Rebilding everything from scratch is such a fresh breath of air from all of those technological monopolies. I only wish the best for the SerenityOS team and contributors.
This way of looking at separation of concerns helps: https://x.com/simonswiss/status/1664736786671869952
Methane has approximately 28x the warming effect of CO2 in those 10 years, and ultimately it breaks down... To CO2 and water. So every ton of CH4 is like 28 tons of CO2 in the medium term, and like 1+ tons of CO2 in the long term (since water vapor is also a GHG).

> The major issue we've seen was showcased in Germany [0] where renewable sources simultaneously destroyed profits and drove record high prices for consumers, because they were bought in by a program of subsidies that decoupled retail and wholesale prices.

There was nothing said about Germany in the article, I'm trying to understand what you're suggesting here.
This reads a lot like a potential load of money to be shoveled into "AI" once again. As someone else said, overall healthier environments are the best solution to the problem.
Sure but in those 12 years it does an incredible amount of damage(and then it decays into CO2 anyway). Methane is a huge problem.
>I've yet to encounter a single app that “closes” when pressing the back button…

Here is how to reproduce: Tap back button until the app closes.

Oh you will say that the app didn't close, it went into the background? Maybe, maybe not - users can't tell without further investigation.

This alone makes it 10x harder to use than iPhone. On iPhone, there's no concept of closing the app. Well, there's but its not a relevant thing %99 of the time because apps are very limited on what they can do in the background and its very obvious if the are doing something(you see controls on the screen because they will have to use some system service like playing audio).

I have a PhD in biology and I work in machine learning today.

After years of study my takeaway is that reductionist analogies are helpful for giving folks something to grasp on, but at a certain level, you have to step back and appreciate the complexity of certain things. At some point, only machines will be able to fully grok what is actually going on. Does that mean reductionist thinking is bad though?

How does GPT4 think? A piece of data getting multiplied by a gazillion parameters you will never understand.

How does one cell become a human? A gazillion chemical reactions happen in parallel you will never understand.

What is consciousness? The firing of a gazillion synapses you will never fully understand.

The three challenging phenomena I described may seem intractable to reductionism, but have seen the greatest progress from reductionist approaches. Most of the greatest and most useful knowledge will be very reductionist in nature. How many transcription factors are needed to turn this skin cell into a stem cell? About 4. What is the best architecture for machine translation? Fits on the back if a postcard? What chemical transmitter underpins human happiness? Can be synthetically manufactured in your mother's basement...
Yes. But the article describes years of usage and it just isn't a problem if you start with k8s today

I had my first experience with cannabis when I was a teenager (14 or so) (it was the Netherlands; everyone I knew smoked it); it was a piece of spacecake. After the first laughs it turned into anxiety and paranoia fast. It was horrible. I did it 2 times more with the same effect. Never again. I always say that if you want to torture me to get info (not that I have any but say I was a senator or whatever), just give me spacecake and put on some flashing lights and start shouting at me; I’ll give you whatever you want to make it stop and have Xanax.
This is a very US-centric view. The things you mention might have an impact but not everything that happens is just due to what the US does. Israel wants to normalize relations with neighbors because that's what any country wants to do in order to keep existing (also, if the US is a factor here, it's mainly in pushing hard diplomatically for normalization of Israeli relations with arab countries).

The Suni (Saudi arabia) vs Shia (Iran) divide currently dominates power politics in the middle east. This is also what motivates Israel's foreign policy (and also Iran's and Hamas' actions). Since the start of the war in Afghanistan, the US has been trying to excert military influence in the region without investing either troops or money. Afghanistan shows how that tends to work out. US influence on the region is at a historic low both economically and politically.
> The DOM API is entirely functional based upon traversal of a lexically scoped mode

wat

DOM APIs have been, and still are, 90s-era OOP style with zero attempt at being functional, declarative, or composable.

Even the newly developed API are usually stuck in the same mindset (see everything developed for web components)
It’s a little from column a and a little column b in practice. Puja Patel (editor in chief) is fairly open about being in a mission to increase diversity and specifically covering fewer white male bands. You may spin that as “wokeness” (note: the parent never used that phrase) but it’s one and the same to covering what younger listeners were interested in over most of the last decade too. In lots of ways raging against wokeness is just the latest era of “old man shouts at cloud”.

The issue with that is it’s the same shift a lot of outlets made to try and keep pace too, which has resulted in a bunch of legacy outlets with little distinct editorial voice left. That’s not a barrier to keeping clicks, but it does feel like a failing strategy to retain cultural cache.

Though I digress, by all accounts Pitchfork had actually gone from losing money pre Puja to actually making money, so this was probably not about the outlet failing in some way. I personally agree with those noting how soon this has come after the staff unionisation vote

I don't agree that the "vast majority" of government motivations for green energy are "geostrategic". Some of it is but much is clearly driven by genuine concern about the environment by elected representatives.

If Germany were most motivated by energy independence they would not have closed so many nuclear power plants. There are in fact lots of decisions that politicians make that are inconsistent with aiming for strategic benefits but are consistent with an earnest (and sometimes quixotic) concern for the environment. If the UK was so bent on energy independence we would have made more progress on heat pumps. Yet gas boilers (lifespan: 15 years) are still being fitted today. In truth, governments thing about energy security a bit, they think about green stuff a bit and they aren't always very effective agents of change...

I also think you're not right to imply that energy production largely happens as a result of government direction. In fact, energy prices are high at the moment and the prospect of profit drives development of green energy a great deal (not that subsidies don't have an effect as well).

To be honest (and I hope I'm not straying into a personal attack here - that's not intended) I think your viewpoint sounds clever because it is cynical. Cynical views - especially the attribution of an ulterior motive - usually sound clever. But I think your post is at best partly right and perhaps even mostly wrong. Political realism is a drug to take only in small doses.

Should error messages apologize? (2013)
Yeah same with plant decommissioning. This is rarely incorporated into the business model. Even the building of the plants is often heavily sponsored. This made sense during the cold war due to side production of isotopes and general capabilities and expertise (and I believe this is the main reason why nuclear arms countries have such prolific nuclear power as well).

But really these days it makes no sense. The reason these costs are not borne by the operators is because the business model would be impossible if all costs were included. As it is even with all the handouts it's hard to make it work cost-wise.
Comparing 1980 to current according to https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/annual-co-emissions-by-re... :

Is it even possible to distinguish between such deepfakes and real footage at this point? Maybe they do that also so that there is no defensive line over claiming CSAM videos found are deepfakes and thus not a crime?

Moreover even AI generated CSAM has to trained somewhere. It is not certain at all that an increase in AI generated CSAM market would necessarily mean less child abuse.
That might be part of the reason you don't understand the motivation.
Nuclear was around. But the real potential for savings was in reducing consumption by altering infrastructure investments. For example by favoring public transport and walkable cities over cars and sprawl, or requiring better insulation for new buildings. Today we don’t have the time to wait until simple tax incentives nudge people towards better behavior.

Doing more things is not about ease of use. The notification example is horrible, why would you do more things in the notification beyond immediately reacting(an action like reply) to it? If you do more, it's not a notification its a widget that is presented in a list and this makes it 10x harder to use instantly because it breaks concept of notifications. Can be useful in certain workflows but this doesn't make it easier to use, it makes it versatile which can be good if you are willing to deal with the added complexity.

Well that’s more forward thinking than AT&T’s Nashville CO when it got bombed. They just depended on natgas grid for their generators if grid electric went out. They underestimated the correlation between energy grids.

When natgas got cutoff and the UPSs died, they had no ability to hook in roll-up generators and had to hastily install connection points (or hardline them). And no standby contracts for them.

> The Thames’ state isn’t due to market failure but government inaction

> The real issue is the collectivist delusion that more state control is the solution

My head hurts.

> The collectivist dismissal of history as "squishy"

Firstly, I am not a collectivist. Secondly, I don't dismiss history; I think it's very important and illuminating. Thirdly, Karl Marx, the arch-collectivist, hardly dismissed history; his entire theory was based on historical analysis. History is not a list of facts; what real historians do is largely interpretation. History is almost completely unlike maths. Expressions like "history tells us that ..." are rather stultifying; history tends to tell us what we want to hear.

Your comment seems to be a catalogue of free-marketeer articles of faith, expressed as bald assertions, as if only a fool could fail to see their obvious truth. Well, we've had free-marketeers in charge here for 15 years now; everyone knows that things have got worse.
It’s interesting that throughout history we have tended to characterize the behavior of biological systems in terms of the dominant technology of the time. At one point, it was mechanical automata. Then it was hydraulics. Then it was electrical circuits. Now it is computers.

It seems that some people have become overly attached to the computer code explanation of DNA, viewing it not just as a convenient analogy to current technology but as a fundamental truth. They will ask questions like “if DNA is code, then what corresponds to functions? or exceptions? or data structures?” and end up working backwards from the analogy instead of observing what DNA does and building a mental model from there.

(It doesn’t help that the code analogy is very flattering to the programmer’s ego.)
Gpt 4 is better than the average human
We haven't squeezed living standards? Take two examples: LED lights and heat pumps.

Replacing incandescent bulbs and direct heating hasn't made us poorer. Just more efficient.

Many countries have decoupled economic growth from energy use.[1] My personal theory is that we were stuck based on the marginal cost of fossil fuels. Given the fossil price of energy we had already exploited nearly all avenues.

Renewables are cheaper than fossil fuels and massively scalable. Thus we will once again be in the state with more energy available than what we can use, and we will reliably find new ways of utilizing this.

Nuclear is the antithesis to this. It is more expensive than fossil fuels which means relying on it will entail degrowth compared to our fossil equilibrium.
