millions of users have iPhones so developers MUST deploy there

therefore competition MUST be forced because (it is actually a deeper question, my microeconomy professor told us monopoly makes profit and it is the potential source of innovation, in perfect competition there is no innovation money)

because it favors us consumers in the long run not just because products become cheaper but monopolies also suppress innovation

I guess Apple was innovative and created monopolies but they should innovate from monopolistic profit and create new monopolies and let old ones gently fade away in competition... plenty of big companies become stagnant

actually Apple is withholding web innovation and plenty of cross platform innovations never were born in the last decade... nowadays even single developers can create great cross platform products via web tech

Apple could have innovated in web instead of withholding it and they would have the best web browser and they could deliver apple products on all OS

strategically it is a very bad decision to try to do the same over and over again (vision pro, closed walled garden)

they misjudged browsers, electric cars

D3 is a library that 1. lets one elegantly and concisely bind data to DOM elements 2. use elements’ data to control their appearance.

The median of the the top 25 most violent tribes is absolutely going to have a very high level of violence. You're right!

But if there are ten million tribes not shown on this chart that have less than 0.01% chance of violent death, then the real median is much lower, right?

This is why I find the chart misleading: It chooses the most violent non-state tribes as a basis. It therefore is not a valid way of concluding "How likely was violence" because it eschews states (which may have been more organized / less violent), and does not include anywhere near all tribes, and so a meaningful comparison with the rest of the population is impossible.

Imagine we were discussing people. You show me the top 25 most murderous people, and say "The median murders by these people were 10!", this does not mean anything about the number of murders committed by anyone else.

In terms of quitting and/or level of confidence in decision making, I'd recommend Annie Duke's "Thinking in Bets" and "Quit".

Coincidentally (?), Duke's "Quit" discusses the importance of having a "board of directors" you can go to get objective and critical feedback from. Often, this could be peers / team, but in a work setting - which we often have little control - the quality is going to depend on culture.

ChatGPT and Copilot both frequently hallucinate entire plausible-sounding APIs or properties/methods that simply don’t exist. Often this takes a lot of time to debug/resolve. They also often omit proper input validation, error handling, and logging even when prompted to include it.

I want to do a structured efficiency study of programming tasks of human vs human-plus-AI from problem statement through production-ready code. But my org doesn’t have enough devs to make it statistically significant, nor the spare human capacity to invest on duplicative tasks.

Ok. Does that include device drivers?
these things usually just go back into a general fund; similar to how they do in the USA to avoid "we can charge these companies and get the money back into the department of * and get even bigger!"

I'm not so certain, I grew up in a (modular) sfh in a nice suburb. My experience with sfh as a child was that it meant being far from any other friends I could interact with.

To contradict still further: I think it's a general law of comment pages. People who agree just read the content and nod silently, perhaps upvoting. People who disagree will voice their disagreement.

So it looks like a constant vortex of contradiction and confusion.

It's why "ratio" is such a big thing on Twitter: ratio of likes to comments, because comments tend to be 'negative' towards the post.

Bergamot: Exploring Programming Language Inference Rules
Partially, much of what makes Photoshop photoshop that clones can't replicate is the actual image manipulations,layer adjustments,etc that needs to be carrier over 1:1 or people will just be annoyed that it's not exactly right.

Also Asm.JS (Wasm's predecessor) was born to port GAMES, games often have their own GL,etc UI's that they render themselves and then tons upon tons of gameplay logic code that runs in C/C++ (or whatever scripting language the engine supports like C#).

That was the most important part initially, even if people on the outside are starting to benefit like the Figma folks that uses Wasm, kinda like GPU's were for gaming and now power a ton of modern UI and AI workloads.

The thing you’re not seeing is

a)how much pent-up demand there is.

b)how many people are moving in daily.

It might look like there’s a lot of housing going up, but if there were 1.5x that many households trying to move in during the same time period, it would still be getting bid up (and more roommate situations allowing higher bids - we used to share a 3BR 3 ways, but now we’re all making good money and have split into 3 homes). Most cities have been massively under building, compared to the number of new residents coming in, for a very long time. There’s been a tsunami of people moving from rural to urban areas, while residents have been resisting change. You’re not going to fix that with 10 new towers per year.
I hate the scaffolding. It has some benefits (shelter from the rain) but it's a blight on the aesthetics. I lived in an area for 18 months and just before I left they removed scaffolding over it, and I couldn't believe how much nicer it made the block.

1. Contract says that goods must be delivered at 4pm.

2. Government suddenly changes the law and moves the offset of whole country.

3. Contract is still valid, goods have to be delivered still at 4pm, but with new offset (so at different utc time).

(I guess timezoned time would still be better than local time, but UTC would not work here)

"Everyone is different"

I think this is the root of it. You prefer higher density -- and that's great. I'm sure not everyone agrees, but I don't see any reason to take that away. In fact, I think it should be encouraged for those that like it.

The issue, IMHO, is that some folks don't like that and prefer lower density. And a lot of these changes focus on taking that away from them (i.e. changing their current neighborhood).

Also, just a comment on: "It has to create more car dependence and social isolation"

I don't think that's true. I live in a pretty traditional SFH neighborhood. Within a 12 minute bike ride, I have:

* Four grocery stores (Major chains)

* 2 gyms

* Dozens of restaurants

* Several large parks

* 2 home improvement stores

* Several large employers

* Several (non-Starbucks) coffee shops

And lots more. It's certainly possible, with bikes, to have SFH neighborhoods where cars aren't required.

USB3.0 can theoretically do a 25GB blue ray in 50 seconds, 3.1 is half that, and 3.2 half again.
Baiting? Are you seriously insinuating that Ukraine was about to invade Russia and thus, as Putin claims, they had no choice but to attack? How naive one has to be to actually believe it?

US and Europe were not (and sadly, are not) doing nowhere nearly enough in providing defensive weapons to Ukraine, if they had, this invasion would have been stopped long ago.
If the only places that get built are up-market. Then wherever they get built rents will rise… this makes it challenging to support blanket construction proposals unless you as an individual own, or can afford top-of-market rent.

Not sure what the poster is getting at. It seems to be 'normal' case of precision with floating point. In Julia for example, you can define u to be BigFloat (defaulting to 32 bytes for me below). It gets you the correct answer. The python and other default versions of other software are definitely not the "right" answer.

julia> u::BigFloat = 5.0;
julia> for i=0:72
u = 6.0*cos(u)
end
julia> print(u)

I agree that one shouldn't base one's self-worth on others, but often enough we rely on others for things that we want or need.

A job, friends, dating, a relationship - all of these are contingent on 'approval' from others in a sense. So being concerned about how employers, potential friends or partners view you is a natural thing. Unless you plan to live entirely separate from society, somehow.

If you find yourself an outlier to what others typically seek out, then it becomes a matter of whether you can find people and situations that accept your own offbeat, unique nature.

You and I would like to meet at a coffee shop, on a specific date about six months from now, when the clock on the wall of the coffee shop reads "4:00 PM".

* The coffee shop may not be located within UTC+00:00. If you show up at UTC time 16:00+00:00, I won't be there.

* The coffee shop may not be located in your current time zone. If you show up when it is "4:00 PM" in your local time zone, I won't be there.

* The coffee shop may be located somewhere that follows Daylight Saving Time. If you show up when it is "4:00 PM" in the current UTC offset of the coffee shop, I won't be there.

* The coffee shop may currently be located somewhere that follows Daylight Saving Time, but the legislature stops following Daylight Saving Time between now and our meeting. If you show up when it is "4:00 PM" according to the predicted UTC offset of the coffee shop for the day of the meeting, rather than the actual UTC offset of the coffee shop for the day of the meeting, I won't be there.

Saying "local time" implies all of the above. It means that something is being specified according to the local convention of timekeeping.

Low self-esteem is a medical condition ICD10 R45.81

https://www.cdek.liu.edu/icd10/R45.81/
That is true. Rust makes it easy to overuse monomorphisation. There are tools like `cargo-bloat` that find these.

However, most complaints are about size of “Hello World”, which in Rust is due to libstd always having debug info (to be fixed soon), and panic handling code that includes backtrace printing (because print to stdout can fail).

Printing of backtrace is very bloaty, because it parses and decompresses debug info.
I'm not sure existing cities can evolve themselves to fully solve these problems.

There are Americans that want affordable housing in densely populated areas that are also car centric. Hard to get all of three of those requirements. There are other Americans who already have a home in their ideal neighborhood and don't want change. The two groups are just incongruent.

Affordable housing is possible, but it requires a number of drivers:

1) Don't make policies that disincentivize developers. 2) Don't turn homes into financial assets. 3) Don't build the city around cars. 4) Don't romanticize the single family residence (SFR) home.

This might require brand new cities to be built — where these promises can be set from the get go.
Clearly a better alternative to let them die on the streets rather than the unthinkable alternative of having to share walls with a neighbor.
No, historically (as in, the rules that were in effect when all the beloved neighborhoods were created), if you wanted to built apartments, you could.

In most American cities, that rule wasn’t changed until the 1970’s, when the Supreme Court ruled that you couldn’t overtly discriminate by race. So all the white neighborhoods switched to this indirect way to maintain the status quo.

You can strip C compiled binaries too. And that halves the binary size. The point is for example a hello world Rust binaries is 300kb after striping while C compiled one is 15kb. A difference of 20 times.
Since the appearance of computer networks, all operating systems require during installation an explicit setting of the time zone.

This includes Windows and any operating system that chooses to keep the time as local time, because even those need to be able to convert the local time to other time zones.

The users who buy a computer with a preinstalled operating system may not see this, but someone has explicitly set their time zone.

Because the time zone must be set anyway, it is always better to use inside programs a time that is either UTC or TAI and convert it only for presentation purpose.

For purposes like storing the time at which future events are scheduled, if they are established in local time, so the future correct conversion is yet unknown, a distinct type must be used and that must be a structure with 3 members, date, time of the day and time zone. It must not be a time expressed in seconds or other time units, as it may be used for UTC or TAI.
It's also becoming very apparent that the studios can't support the level of investment their having to make to develop AAA either. A bit like the movie studios, dropping billions on titles that can only make money back if they manage to be the #1 hit of the year.
You need density if you want to encourage light rail or even bike infrastructure (such as dedicated bike paths or lanes). The two go hand in hand. Of course more mixed use would also help, gradually turning the suburbs into something more reminiscent of traditional villages or towns.
Highly variable but the trend is increasing. And fires are becoming more costly, evacuations more frequent. More people are living, retiring, in remote places.
New scaffolding half a block away would have popped up 2 months later.
I can actually answer this. It is a decision you can make, but that phrasing trivializes it.

Getting to that point and internalizing it is not an easy process and may require medication or therapy to gain the necessary perspective to see this as a choice.

I had to unlearn a lot of things and spend years putting the past in perspective to get there.

Unless you buy a home simply to rent it out to others, you need to be an active participant in its affairs. At the bare minimum, it means staying abreast in what’s going on. Any responsible homebuyer would have done their due diligence in at least asking the realtor what is the current trend of the local community, long before any papers are signed. Zoning law changes should never come as a “sudden” surprise, especially since they are universally a source of controversy.
> Saying "local time" implies all of the above. It means that something is being specified according to the local convention of timekeeping.

No, it really doesn’t. Saying “4pm at the coffee shop” means that, and this is a big distinction.

If I’m in a different time zone two days before the meeting, looking at my calendar, I sure hope my calendar understands the difference. If I move my entire home outside the timezone, the appointment doesn’t magically shift an hour as a result.

And any decent time library can handle this just fine as long as you don’t use “local” time. Just specify the actual timezone!
So a double policy win then?
I saw some of this fight in the 90s (Central Texas) and much of the land privately conserved is now shopping and condos. The money is just to good. I bought 8 acres in the 90s here for about $15k. Did not know how I would ever pay it off (family held the note and were pretty forgiving lenders). Recent subdivided land in the area is going for about $400K (same sized lots).

Also, taxes have gone up. In the past 5 years. My 2023 Notice of Appraised Value states "The difference between the 2016 appraised values and the 2023 appraised value is 528.97%" for my unimproved land.

Apple has excluded all other browsers on iOS, requires you to buy more apple hardware to produce software for iOS, and has all of their rules around IAP and not allowing you to even link to an alternate store in many cases.
