> Wasm makes it thinkable to do DOM programming in languages other than JavaScript

Does it really? AFAIK, if I want to do any kind of DOM manipulation in say, rust, I need bindings that will basically serialize calls to be done on the JS side. So with the current incarnation of wasm, I believe you're still stuck with JS.

Server rendered content has had 25+ years of development and the approaches and constraints are well understood. Client-side rendering has arguably had less than 10 years of development and the approaches and constraints are still fragmented and poorly understood. The maturity and simplicity of server side rendering shouldn't be underestimated.
It doesn't carry even a 10th of the cargo of the big windjammers of the 19th century (5000-8000 tons!).

Of course, setting aside the value of zero emissions which is their obvious selling point, it would otherwise be competing against big container ships (up to 200,000 tons!).

I assume that until they scale it for a few more generations that it'll be more a gimmick for low tonnage luxury items that just want the zero emission marketing claim. Even after scaling, I assume it couldn't be competitive for most bulk things.

Can you tell me more about how it changes? (either your perception or anecdote)
This has inspired about a hundred ideas in my head. Thank you!

(They're all ways which on paper seem like I might be able to do things better, but if the sort where 95% don't pan out in practice. Everything from machine learning algorithms to identify shapes to fancy encoding with spectra of what reflects along the path to other ways to engineer changes in the path)
Of course I’ve used an IDE before. I still prefer Vim to an IDE. And I enjoy writing typed languages in Vim because the compiler catches mistakes.

I agree part of the problem is cultural. Maybe a bunch of Python coders are eager to use types, or maybe linters are pushing them to type every last variable because that is “right.” I don’t know.

I don’t hate typed languages at all. In fact I love writing Rust. Even C++ is tolerable from a type perspective. I don’t agree that _RelationshipJoinConditionArgument is a meaningful type. It feels like bolting a type system onto the language after the fact is weird and necessitates crazy types like that to make some linter happy, maybe to make VS Code users happy, at the expense of readability.
That's because SVG is actually a document format, that is mostly for vector graphics. SVG nodes even show up in the DOM and CSSOM.

My theory is that this causation is flipped. Something about whatever the precursor to autism is causes the body to experience more physical failures or malformed structures.

Something like whatever mechanisms decode structure from the genome are faulty and produce slightly wrong structures throughout the brain and body.

Anecdotally, I see a higher rate of general illness and physical birth defects in autistic people.
Last time I checked if you went in front of investors and said “hey, I want to make a business where nobody wants to pay, not even a dollar a year” you would be laughed out of the room.

So. I think that is your problem. Maybe make a business where people are wanting to pay for the content? Think about how much more money you would make!!!
A well built and properly maintained anything can last hundreds of years. Proper maintenance likely involves heavy replacement of parts, mind. And is very contingent on no damage.

I will add I just moved out of a hundred year old house in Seattle. I know they can happen. I also know that house had no air conditioning and retrofitting one on would have basically meant a new house. Even if it looked the same.

The fuel burned by container ships is literally the sludge left at the bottom of the distillation vessel after all of the lighter petroleum fuels have been removed for sale. It is incredibly cheap fuel, extremely energy dense, but unbelievably dirty stuff.

Unfortunately, these ships only burn the nasty fuel in international waters so the process of getting them to pay for emissions would have to go through international maritime law, specifically MARPOL [1]. If you want an idea of how difficult that would be, check out the implementation and enforcement section of that page.

> We’re at the point where resolution isn’t particularly relevant. People want the same UI on a 1080p vs 4k 15” screen because mouse/touchscreen precision and eyesight doesn’t double when resolution doubles.

That is exactly why I'm comparing the target DPI rather than talking about how many icons fit in a 1024 pixel row. The 90s were a time when the idea screens should have an effective DPI of > 72 was new. Nowadays we have finished the migration to the effective 96 as the standard DPI. To view an image from a time the effective DPI was supposed to be 72 on a modern screen you need to scale it ~1.33x larger so that you're back to having an effective 96 pixels per inch image to output (for the exact same reason you say you need to scale the 4k to appear the same when it's a 15" output, just from the other direction).

Well it's not a very short stick considering the button comparison image didn't even correct for the above scaling :p. Web does have massive whitespace, but not because design really changed. E.g. here is a side-by-side of YouTube now and YouTube 2006: https://i.imgur.com/tYm0OoU.png and honestly whitespace has decreased with the content filling in those blanks in the "traditional" design. "But wait!" you say "When I look at YouTube I see massive swaths of blank space e.g. on the sides!" and well, sure, you do in some pages https://i.imgur.com/RfzXTeK.png but it's massively less than the legacy design's side whitespace https://i.imgur.com/mDjPFuB.png. The difference here is not that the web started shooting in massive amounts of whitespace into archived YouTube pages it's that the legacy design got to assume most viewers have a small 4:3 monitor and everything will need to fit in that small box whereas nowadays we have big 16:9 monitors but expanding the design to use all of that extra space only goes so far (but still farther in the "use less whitespace" design direction than the "use more"). YouTube also has new designs for certain situations that make it so any screen of any dimension has minimal whitespace usage: https://i.imgur.com/kHBH8Vk.png (vs a linear column list in the legacy design). Despite this people still blame the new YouTube design as having added new whitespace vs the old design.

This could work for luxury goods if the products and the associated marketing reflects it.

> Its not really typesafe, more like typescript where its autocomplete, but not real.

That is a _wild_ complaint. Just like any language, TypeScript does give you type safety if you use it correctly, e.g. typing at the boundaries, avoiding casts/any, etc.

I don’t think there is a difference. They are about determining what is the right and wrong thing to do. Sometimes people distinguish them as morals has to do with religion and ethics has to do with business/politics, but I think that is an artificial distinction. In other words, I consider the words to be synonymous.

when I lived in a city with an underground transit system, it was interesting how my mental map developed in a non-contiguous way.

I’d learn lots of little disconnected areas around each transit station. But it would take a long time to learn how all those little maps would relate to each other.

And each time I started realizing how two of those little “islands” were related by streets on the surface, my initial reaction was always disbelief. in my mind they were each distinct little areas and it didn’t seem possible that you could just walk from one to the other

Ask HN: Cheapest way to use LLM coding assistance?
I would like to toy around with LLM assistance (Chat/Copilot) for my coding side projects. Given that I will only use this sporadically (20hrs per week max, with variation between weeks), I was wondering if there was a cheaper way to access these tools than paying for an OpenAI/GitHub Copilot subscription.

Has someone here done the math on self-hosting on the cloud/running locally/using the APIs directly/just paying for the subscriptions?

Some additional details on my specific situation (but also interested in general considerations):

- I’m living in Germany (26ct/kWh, no access to Claude)
- I already have access to a box with 64GB RAM, no GPU though)
I haven’t had similar issues with React, and I been using it much longer - Next.js is a special case.

I was going to disagree with you but then I noticed your username :P

Then I was going to agree with you. But that didn't seem rational either. O.o
I agree with you completely, and there are voices within the organization advocating for that as well. Big legacy mainstream media companies move at a glacial pace and making that kind of change takes a lot of time and buy-in throughout the whole org chart.

And, somewhat counterintuitively, I think it's also important to note that sometimes what the journalists want to cover and content that people want and are willing to pay for aren't always the same thing. Additionally, sometimes what people want and are willing to pay for doesn't sit well with advertisers, so it is always a nuanced balancing act.

Wrt to the present, I think the current (US) military actions are simply a means of moving wealth from one segment of the population to another without a need for transparency. Hence, less tax dollars should go in.

I'd prefer to regress to the time when our government needed to fund war by asking people to purchase liberty bonds.

> Wasm makes it thinkable to do DOM programming in languages other than JavaScript

Can't help but picking this out for correction - people have been doing it for a long time in compile-to-JS languages - eg ClojureScript, TypeScript, ReasonML and many others.

And people have also been compiling native-ish stuff for the web a long time before Wasm through asm.js & emscripten, like C and through that C-based languages such as Python: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asm.js#Adoption

I was just at a party where a guy told me he was hired by a SF startup to covertly download many hours of YouTube videos without paying either Google or the original creators. When he mentioned the word "copyright", they fired him, but only after assuring him that they had worked at Google before the startup and it was completely legal.

This is remarkably similar to the situation you get with visual scripting in game development - it's intended as a way for designers and artists to do small coding tasks on their own without needing to bother a programmer (e.g. set up a pressure plate that opens a door when you step on it), but their creations also tend to spiral out of control. There's a whole website dedicated to examples of this from Unreal Engine[1]

Personally, I think good refactoring support would be the way to go - make it easier for a programmer to go in and "extract method" or similar to clean things up if they have gotten out of hand, without necessarily having to rewrite the whole thing from scratch.

Interesting - why is Shor's sensitive to noise? Is that the Rphase gates?
The very constrained environment sucks. Limited kernel with sparse modules, probably no root access (and Google's infernal Play Protect/SafetyNet will try to make sure you can't run certain apps if you do have root), lots of additional security layers... Android is antagonistic to userlands; it's no fun.

It'll be interesting to see how much of the Chrome OS work Android steals. ChromeOS also has an immensely locked down world, but they have build all kinds of secure/virtualizing proxies to let container OSes feel like they have access to hardware. Immense NIH is both daunting but also kinda cool, see https://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/developer-library/guide...
I tried k3s but wasn't happy with its resource utilisation. I settled on k0s with integrated etcd, and the crun container runtime. Additionally k0s deployments can managed with k0sctl and yaml.

Important to include the preceding "With GC,"

In theory you can import DOM functions from runtime & call with references to dom objects now, bypassing JS to call directly into runtime (I say in theory because I'm not in the know whether this is actually possible, but GC at least brings prerequisite mechanisms to get to that point)

350 tons equals about 20 40ft containers at 18 tons cargo per container (usable capacity of ~67 m³) or 14 at 25 tons per container (maximum freight weight for a standard 40ft container) or 12 at 30 ton per container (maximum freight weight for 40ft reefer (cooling) containers). The average capacity for container ships traversing the oceans is around 5000 20ft containers (TEU) or 2500 40ft containers. That equates anything between 125 and 200 of these sailing ships for each average container ship. Most modern container ships are far larger at 12000 TEU capacity or more.

While this looks like an interesting approach for the types of cargo which caters to people who are willing to pay a premium for having their product transported by sail power - this coffee/chocolate/... was made with single-origin beans/... harvested by ... and shipped on a modern clipper - it is not a feasible solution for normal container shipping. Other types of wind-powered propulsion exist which can be used to reduce the fuel consumption for cargo ships which probably are more efficient in reducing shipping emissions than having large fleets of these 'freight yachts' traverse the seas.

They are "parasites" because they don't do what they are "supposed to"? That's pretty crazy. I guess every person that's doing what matches their interests is somehow a bad person/parasite/etc. Or is that only if what they do is forbidden by some rule book? Do you see what I'm getting at here?
