Seeing Rails having a resurgence, to be honest if I would have started with Ruby a few years back, it would indeed be a no-brainer productivity wise.

I don't know how worse it will get, but my current solution is a hoard of pdfs (books and articles), saving links (in case I can't find that one good site), and a documentation browser (Dash on macOS). A current trend is curated lists of links (awesome lists, blogrolls,…) so maybe one day, the only good way to experience the web will be this small web which will act like a human filter.

Yeah, I think the safe option for employment is React.

This isn't an uncommon scenario. My advice would be that you find a way to get some compensation, preferably in stock, for what you have developed while retaining only an advisory or part-time role so you can continue to tinker and work on what you love without creating pressure upon yourself to now co-run and develop a startup. That way you get some upside if it works out and you can participate and contribute but you're not responsible for its success or failure.
Experience in teams has taught me that this is 100% correct. I even had a guy once who decided to develop using exclusively Safari for a couple weeks before giving up because he kept missing “obvious” style bugs other people would find in review.

Google also built superior dev tools into Chrome in many respects. Lastly, many developers don’t or won’t ever read W3C/WhatWG/TC39/IETF specs or peruse browser bug trackers beyond solving the immediate problem they’re faced with, so blame can often be very arbitrary.
+1 to this. It would be more work to write the manuals in multiple languages, and there could be slight differences in making, Nonetheless, I bet this would be worthwhile. Or maybe there is a language better than English for the manuals.
For improved security with X11, try firejail+Xpra, or Qubes OS. They will not just help in the graphical front, but also others like processes and storage isolation.
War is mutually assured EVERYTHING destruction. It is an anomaly that WW2 resulted in winners and losers. WW1 is more typical; everyone loses in a war.

But that didn’t stop Napoleon from invading Russia or Hitler from invading the USSR. If you peel back all the rhetoric, they did it because they thought it would be a pushover and a quick victory.

It is tempting to go to war if all your yes men tell you you will be at the enemy’s capitol before winter.
>However, mad wizards - megalomaniacal persons with lust for power and disregard of others - with enough resources might manufacture a machine army.

I've had a novel (as in writing a book) idea rattling around in my brain with something like this.

A distributed AI living throughout the collective internet has humans unwittingly (or select few recruited to wittingly) manufacture a machine army for it.
You'd need way better clocks and synchronization circuits than exist now though, but I don't see any pure physical barriers.
Less planes and more expensive tickets?
The US Navy might have secret programs for some small underwater combat drones but there are no "hush-hush subs". A modern SSN/SSBN costs billions of dollars and takes thousands of workers years to build. There's just no way to keep them secret. Some of the internal systems and capabilities are secret but the number of hulls is public knowledge.
There are still massive open questions. The current educational system does not providing the tools you need to address them.

Maybe you should look into Laslo Polgar. Another Hungarian who taught his daughters how to beat chess grandmasters.

Japanese bureaucracy has a bad rap, but it isn't that bad. There's still paperwork (not much has moved online) but the public servant staff are super helpful and guide you through things and are helpful when there is some blocker. Especially in the past 3-5 years there have big improvements with a lot of paperwork and stuff that required your personal seal has been removed, and the MyNumber card makes doing anything online very easy. I've never ever had to fax anything as people joke about (and a friend in Germany actually had to do)

No. Strawberry Qwik (sp?) was given a go though. Once.
the decision to concede and start copying computer systems designed by the "evil capitalists" likely wasn't done lightly.

It's not really how the Soviet Union operated, this sort of "technology transfer" was fundamental to Soviet development from the start. It was so ingrained in Soviet leadership that it was sometimes counterproductive - one famous example is Beria's insistence on strictly following the atomic bomb designs lifted from the Manhattan project which probably didn't make the bomb makers' jobs any easier. A down-to-the-last-rivet replica of the B-29 was also not what Tupolev would have done without orders from the top.

Submarines also suffering delays, but current USN subs still have enough lead enough that SSNX isn't urgent as updating surface combatants as long as current sub fleet is replaced at relative parity. I don't think there's secret fleet, dry docks are easy to monitor. Maybe some XLUUVs, that can be built in an enclosed plant and shuttled around.

I think more trying to figure out naval unmanned platforms, to see what future fleet composition will be, i.e. navy Force Design 2045 wants 370 manned ships, 150 unmanned, maybe better off with 300 manned and 200 unmanned.

I didn’t claim to be have more ethical understanding than he did, but frankly, if his reported positions on nuclear strikes were actually what he thought, then yes, I think I do.

You may think ethics is muddy and nonsensical, but guess what? So is reality. That’s the point. Reality is nuanced and more complex than a single human mind can comprehend. Extremely intelligent people (particularly at math and other abstract fields) often seem to not understand this, preferring to believe that their variation of game theory is accurate.

All I can say is that I’m extremely glad that Von Neumann was in no position to launch weapons. Analysis has its limits.

We have communities which can manage their own local issues internally - rather than aerial surveillance tech and AI keeping watch of our every move. We all know this will be used for minor infringements and revenue raising, more paperwork and more red tape. Like I said, by your token, monitor all comms and detect lies and infringements. Ban blinds and curtains too so we can get changed in public view.

I don't think the lifestyle is related to the art but the person. I have friends with similar lifestyles and stories even down to the avoiding homelessness by pet sitting, and being shitty at it. Yet art or any sort of creative endeavor isn't part of the equation. Then I have some friends deeply devoted to their art that wouldn't ever consider approaching homelessness. The most successful artist I know is a landscaper and he could certainly live a successful by any standard life on purely his art but it's just not in his nature to live in that way.

All people, artistic or not, have a certain tolerance for ignoring social standards. Some of the best artists are known to have a very high tolerance. But there's millions more people with similarly chaotic existences that don't care about art and creative activities at all.
By far the worst thing is what we don’t have: a bill of rights.
True. But the physical instantiation is necessary. That is what I am exploring: What is necessary to start working with math, and can it be described like the OSI model?
That’s true. On the other hand, Apple isn’t some kind of Borg like swarm intelligence. While Apple’s upper management doesn’t want back doors in their products, someone in middle management might have come to a different opinion.
Over regulation: the government’s fault.

Under regulation: the government’s fault.

Airlines run the planes, and it is their duty not to kill their passengers. It’s their fault. If they kill people, that’s their fault, and they should go to jail for it. The lack of regulation can in no way be used an excuse by dangerous businesses to avoid responsibility for their dangerous behavior.

I do agree the government should increase airline regulation. The airlines ran the lobbying campaigns to deregulate to begin with. That should also be made illegal.
That's somewhat true, however the way the math is taught has changed.

Anecdottally, my father was only introduced to vectors and vector based calculations when at the uni. My generation was taught vectors in primary school already.

I think they opted for the different approach to make a more visual representation of the concepts, so younger minds could more easily grasp them.

I am a full stack developer with a Graduation degree in Computer Science and 5 years of professional experience as a full stack engineer (mostly with JavaScript frameworks). In the last few years my main focus has been the React/Next.js ecosystem, followed by Node.js. I am a JavaScript/TypeScript professional. I have also worked with ASP.NET in the past which is not my primary focus at the moment.

I have experience working remotely and on-site for startups within globally distributed multicultural teams.

Interested in:

- early stage projects (startups) - well scoped feature or maintenance work on mature projects
Was surprised to see the piece mention US Airways, which merged with American years ago (in 2013). Then I saw the date on the article: 2015 (nearly ten years ago).

I think for the planes in the air now I'd want to know what kind of refurbishment happened for planes that had to be put in long-term storage during 2020, and what pressures the crews that did those rebuilds were under to get planes back in the air quickly, as opposed to routine offshoring from 10 years ago.

It's pretty reasonable to make a living if you're a decent painter, musician, or photographer. There's just not a great overlap of art and business skills.
Isn't this absurd? At a glance, shouldn't it take acres and acres being cared for for months to, then some processing, to extract the same nickel as a mine in a day, maybe a week?

Are the nickel mines dry?

Anyone has a breakdown of the math?

Edit1:

"But while the idea is still at a nebulous stage, there is considerable potential.

“In soil that contains roughly 5 percent nickel—that is pretty contaminated—you’re going to get an ash that’s about 25 to 50 percent nickel after you burn it down,” Dave McNear, a biogeochemist at the University of Kentucky, told Wired.

“In comparison, where you mine it from the ground, from rock, that has about .02 percent nickel. So you are several orders of magnitude greater in enrichment, and it has far less impurities.”"

Something that I didn’t see mentioned clearly -

A “licensed” mechanic needs to “certify” or sign off on the paperwork that a given task was done to a given standard following a given procedure.

The person certifying the work does not have to be the one that did the actual work, but it’s their license on the line so they tend to make sure it was done correctly.

This is how unlicensed mechanics / apprentices actually learn and eventually get their “license”.

There are varying levels and abilities for these licensed mechanics too in terms of what they are allowed to do, and also the organisation licenses too they’re working for.

It’s not quite as sinister or as “Wild West” the author wants to make it out, but outsourcing was inevitable in the airlines economic model.

Amazing that you consider a proprietary thing like whatsapp remotely secure. For all we know it's backdoored.

And signal… not available on fdroid… thus mostly installed via apple/google… how difficult would it be to push a backdoored update to selected individuals?

I could think of a few ranging from just asking Apple for a copy of your iCloud backups, asking you personally for a copy of the messages through to exploiting iOS itself.
Out of my knowledge area, but according to ChatGPT;

>[Well..], both states did have speed limits, but they had sections of rural highways with "reasonable and prudent" speed limits, which were often unposted.

>But they were not without limitations. Drivers were still expected to drive at a safe and appropriate speed for the conditions, and law enforcement could *enforce speed limits based on what they deemed reasonable and prudent.*

So to me than seems even more open to abuse than the current situation.
Bit of a tangent, but if we commonly stored source in a standard, fully attributed AST instead of caveman text, caching/indexing and deterministic search would be a breeze. So would a million other useful applications such as every other IDE feature and source control.

As the decades go by it confounds me that we are still messing with plain text, and with virtually no resistance to it. Maybe it's to keep the tabs vs. spaces flame war alive. _shrug_

To be totally honest, I have no idea. When I first learned about them, I reached out to the CEO privately on LinkedIn, he asked what I was up to, I told him probably more than I should have (I come from an open source and transparent background), then he stopped talking to me entirely.

Since then, one of the co-founders blocked me on Twitter for pointing out that despite their claims, they were not the first MI300x to production. Neither were we, ElioVP gets that trophy, then Lamini, then GigaIO. Making us 4th and them 5th. I could go on and on with weird stuff I've seen them do, but it just isn't productive here.

Anyway, I think we have some overlap since we both are one of the few startups on the planet that actually has MI300x. But beyond that, I believe strongly that this space is large enough for multiple players and I don't see a need to be weird with each other. Apparently, I'm not on the same page though.

The Brazilian Supreme Court Justice that Musk criticized has been granted unilateral power to order material censored and accounts removed from online platforms, without a trial.

X says that it wasn't even told what their offenses were, and was ordered not to disclose which accounts were ordered closed:

`X Corp. has been forced by court decisions to block certain popular accounts in Brazil. We have informed those accounts that we have taken this action.

We do not know the reasons these blocking orders have been issued.

We do not know which posts are alleged to violate the law.

We are prohibited from saying which court or judge issued the order, or on what grounds.

We are prohibited from saying which accounts are impacted.

We are threatened with daily fines if we fail to comply.

We believe that such orders are not in accordance with the Marco Civil da Internet or the Brazilian Federal Constitution, and we challenge the orders legally where possible.

The people of Brazil, regardless of their political beliefs, are entitled to freedom of speech, due process, and transparency from their own authorities.
