There's quite some space between "100% no JS" and "full SPA"; many applications are mostly backend template-driven, but use JS async loads for some things where it makes sense. The vote buttons on Hacker News is a good example.

I agree a lot of full SPAs are poorly done, but some are do work well. FastMail is an example of a SPA done well.

The reason many SPAs are slower is just latency; traditional template-driven is:

- You send request

- Backend takes time to process that

- Sends all the data in one go.

- Browser renders it.

But full SPA is:

- You send request

- You get a stub template which loads JS.

- You load the JS.

- You parse the JS.

- You send some number of requests to get some JSON data, this can be anything from 1 to 10 depending on how it was written. Sometimes it's even serial (e.g. request 1 needs to complete, then uses some part of that to send request 2, and then that needs to finish).

- Your JS parses that and converts it to HTML.

- It injects that in your DOM.

- Browser renders it.

There are ways to make that faster, but many don't.
Recall can't be disabled during the Windows setup. It has to be disabled manually in Windows settings.

I actually don’t like the special treatment of certain programs. Consistency is king. Even on Fedora, I boot into TTY and run Hyprland manually from there or just stay in TTY+tmux.
Windows already had a built in keylogger with Window 10 (https://www.pcworld.com/article/423165/how-to-turn-off-windo...) but all that data was only going to Microsoft and couldn't be accessed by you or anyone with access to your device.

Law enforcement, attorneys, and three letter agencies must be extremely excited about Recall. Now they won't have to hope that MS has records of everything you've typed while using your device, because with Recall all of that evidence will be stored on the device itself.

"If one would give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest man, I would find something in them to have him hanged." imagine could be found using everything a person ever types on their computer.

You never know when you will need a 10 year old doc. Audits and disputes for example. In addition I suspect keeping all the docs uses 1% of the spaces of photos people back up anyway.

I agree that search is overkill - just drudge manually or use grep when the time comes to dig.

It's often good enough for most people.

0-100 is incredibly rare. If I had to deal with that commenter's situation back when I was only on 120V and actually needed 100% soon (this is getting pretty contrived,) I would've charged to 10-20% and then gone to a level 3 charger. Admittedly, this still isn't going to be fast -- but it's not going to take 60 hours.
You misunderstand, the optimal amount of "loss" both internal and external, from Apple's perspective, is greater then zero. They know they could do straight forward things to reduce it, like put everything in the back room so you have to ask for it, or hire security guards to physically prevent theft.

But they decided that would be worse for business to prevent all theft then to simply have a few people steal stuff.

It being easy for people to grab thousands of dollars worth of stuff and run out of the store is a choice they made intentionally.
As far as I can see based on the data already posted online, this is literally the Windows 10 Timeline feature, it even (re)uses the same API from that feature (that was deprecated just 3 months ago) and apparently shares the implementation as well (that feature also used a sqlite DB in your AppData and a subfolder with jpegs).

They just put a little AI lipstick on that old pig in the form of OCR and some image classification.

The Windows 10 Timeline feature has been around for 6 years. It is a bit surprising there is so much pushback this time around for effectively the same thing. I wonder if it's because Microsoft has been burning away people's trust through ads and dark patterns and all that bullshit, and this is the direct result of that.
I recovered a post apo novel written like 30 years ago by a friend last year.

Patient : Miniscribe 8425SA 20 MB SCSI hard disk from an Apple Hard Disk 20SC (external SCSI enclosure with a HDD). Hoped the disk was still in working condition after more than a decade stored (HDD was built in '88 and a sticker mentioned a repair in '99), the enclosure power supply was presumed dead (no power on) and the mac itself was shorting mains power in a few little minutes, probably from the screen high voltage converter dying and shorting.

I simply extracted the hard disk from the enclosure. This full height 3.5" disk has an "external" mechanical actuator : a stepper motor visible from outside drives the arm with the head(s) inside the disk, protected by a bellows. It gives a cool sort of a floppy drive sound when random access occurs.

I simply plugged it on a SCSI chain on my vintage Advansys SCSI PCI Card and ribbons.

Read the HFS partition with an old recovery software I could find on the recovery computer, quickly found the files (very simple file system and hierarchy), recovered them on the PC. Encountered just one bad sector.

Then looked the content of the file as raw shaking and ajusted the recovered text format for use with Windows PC/Word from the old word processor software - I think they were Corel Wordperfect files.

Very few correction to make to the raw text. Layout will have to be more thoroughly restored beyond EOL. Mainly accented characters and a few other replacements to do. I thought it would be more of an chore from an vintage apple system and third party software.

Overall, it was far easier than expected. Took me less than 2 hours. But am a ex data recovery guy with some ressources.

Quite pleased the miniscribe acted almost like a charm after 10 years or so of (warm, indoor) storage and not a single power on. Feared the HDD motor's ball bearing were totaly stuck !

You are misunderstanding. Please re-read what I've written so far. At no point did I suggest what you are saying.

> This is how you're supposed to merge. When you get on the freeway you don't expect the current flow of traffic to accommodate for you, instead you accommodate for them.

Specifically, you should read the rest of the line you are replying to here.

I mentioned people behind me speeding up to make it impossible for me to merge without braking, after I signal. At no point did I say they should "stop" or "slow down".

I was pointing out that people deliberately speeding up to make it harder to merge without braking are causing problems. It was a light-hearted comment about the failure of many drivers in my town to properly zipper merge.

I realize "baby steps" and I should be happy for the incremental improvements. But somehow I just can't help feeling this will stall. freetaxusa was already "free" for federal and I don't see a seamless transition to filing for states anytime soon. The cost will just shift to that value point.
No, that's incorrect. But I'm tired of looking up sources for facts that clearly aren't appreciated here, so I'll let you look it up.
I'm sure they had fun, but that's no reason to downplay the role of that aspect of the research.

Well, I’m trans. Loss of fertility is mixed. Probably I could stop hormones for six months and still conceive. I might do that in the next few years but of course that would be disruptive.

I’m not going to have any surgeries, but those that do seem to be happy for it so that doesn’t seem to be a down side.

Trouble dating doesn’t fit for me. My dating life is massively better, in large part because I finally feel good in my skin and now how to look sexy.

I don’t make any attempt to “pass”. I’m a non-binary transfemme. My gender expression is all over the place. I’m just happier with hormones and the clothes I like. It’s more about not trying to be a “man” and just doing whatever, including hormones in my case. All the problems with passing come from places where society doesn’t accept trans people, and expects everyone to fit in to rigid gender roles. That’s not a problem with trans people that’s a problem with society, and in many places people have realized that it doesn’t matter if someone is wearing a dress and has facial hair, or whatever doesn’t fit normal gender roles. On analysis it obviously doesn’t matter, but some places need to catch up. In the San Francisco Bay Area, no one gives a shit. From the earliest most awkward moments of my transition, no one ever seemed to care and no one ever said anything.

And my life is so much better. I feel better. I feel sexier and more confident, and my dating life has exploded. Sex is so much better without heteronormative expectations. I got so tired of that sex life, and now I feel so may possibilities.

So yeah, when you understand the facts, stigma is anti-social behavior and acceptance is the best response.
I’m curious if using these sites through a remote desktop session would be a lot better experience. Keep a computer running at home. Connect to it from Antarctica and do what you gotta do. I don’t know how well VNC/Windows Remote Desktop do with such poor network conditions though.
> Everything a user has ever seen, ordered by application. Every bit of text the user has seen, with some minor exceptions (e.g. Microsoft Edge InPrivate mode is excluded, but Google Chrome isn’t).

Microsoft was the company that used to add bespoke code to Windows to maintain compatibility with old third party software, patch explorer.exe to stop third party customizations from crashing it, etc. While the whole Recall thing is a pretty bad idea for most users, the lack of care extended to the third party browser with overwhelming market share among their users is just sad. Are they counting on people switching to Edge because “PSA: you’ll be recorded if you watch pr0n in Chrome!”?
You can definitely bring your own storage (e.g. store your data in your own s3 buckets and integrate it with snowflake) using storage integrations and external tables.

See https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/data-load-s3-config...

Personally believe this is the right approach as the data resides in a location fully under the company's control. You could ditch snowflake and the data still resides in your s3 buckets for reuse with a another platform (just remove the iam permissions for snowflake).
Yeah, they'll provide support if it was a mistake. It's not they they never pay out, it's just that it's exceeding rare. Group life costs me like $200/yr and pays out over $300k. Insurance can be cheap if the frequency is low.
> This isn’t some hypothetical, this is current investment being made under known terms.

Not sure what you mean here. Is it that private sector investments into gas? If so, it can't be said that it's a good investment. Plenty of bad investments happen, even in so called 'efficient' markets. At the end of the day, making a gas plant is a bet that we'll need more power than renewables can provide 1 - 2 decades from now.

> terminal and pipeline being built today will crowd out renewables down the line

If the energy can be had for cheaper, it will taken from renewables, though the losses may or may not be underwritten by the government.

If the argument is that renewable capacity will be insufficient 2 decades from now, well it would seem we'd need to vast increase in demand for that to be the case. That's not implausible, but certainly energy demand has been shrinking in western nations due to efficiency gains. Even AI, which seems set to increase energy usage, will be subject to efficiency gains as custom silicon, more efficient nodes, photonics, and other technological advances come into play

> Everyone seems to like a monoculture.

I'm not talking about a monoculture. As evidenced in this thread, I've talked about a mix of energy with gas in the equation. All I'm talking about is economics. Solar panels keep on giving (well past their previously expected lifetime of 15 years), wind farms keep on giving, with very little extraction or transport required, though transmission and, for now, backup, seem to be the pain points.

Personally I prefer nuclear from a conservation viewpoint – the waste and water usage problems not withstanding — as there's less land usage, and not a huge amount of extraction required.

> Barring antimatter weapons, no.

If we were to entertain this hypothetical, seems like there would be military budget enough to build whatever nuclear generators they need for their weapon (as they do for subs). I'm not sure on what timeline antimatter weapons enter the equation, but we could add the other hypotheticals of fusion or Dyson Spheres in the mix too

Eventually they can just re-enable it as part of an "important update". They can even stop you from being able to disable it entirely. If you're using Windows, it's not really your computer. At least you aren't the administrator of that device. Microsoft can access any file, install any software, change any setting, or remove any access at any time for any reason with no notice or indication to you that it happened. They can even shutdown your computer. Any device which works like that is not one that's under your control.

Every internet connected windows computer is insecure by design and cannot be trusted to protect your privacy or security.
A witness to a crime thinks that there were 6 shots fired; in fact there were only 2. They remember correctly the gender of the criminal, the color of their jacket, the street corner where it happened, and the time. There is no difference in their mind between the true memories and the false memory.

I write six pieces of code that I believe have no bugs. One has an off-by-one error. I didn't have any different experience writing the buggy code than I did writing the functional code, and I must execute the code to understand that anything different occurred.

Shall I conclude that myself and the witness were hallucinating when we got the right answers? That intelligence is not the thing that got us there?

Honestly, I guess this will become very expensive for Microsoft, and they won't find a good business case what to do with the collected data. So Microsoft is wasting a huge load of money, and additionally their AI spyware causes a huge reputation damage for Microsoft: a lose-lose situation. :-(

Adequate Learning vs Overlearning: How Many Repetitions Is Enough?
How effective is cbti against the non-restful sleep component of chronic fatigue syndrome?

During these times I toss and turn all night and can't seem to fall asleep. I might also end up in some kind of near psychotic thought loops, where I tried to endlessly solve the current major stressors in my life. Or I may spend hours frantically and compulsively picking at acne on my face chest neck back and ass, in some kind of half asleep hell that I can barely escape. The affective experience is awful

Then after 8 hours of this finally I'm so exhausted that I can now sleep 8 hours. Hooray I just spent 16 hours in bed. Guess what I'm still f*** tired for the rest of the 8 hours I'm awake. And I spend those 8 hours in bed too sometimes because I'm too sick to actually leave the bed.

This idea that you can't stay in bed for longer than 20 minutes unless you can sleep is very challenging for someone who is already spending all day in bed because they're sick, and setting up this expectation, I've found, is a recipe for non-acceptance and self judgment.

Another thing that doesn't work so well about the cbti suggestions is that if I go to sleep only when I'm dying... I might not sleep for 2 days, because that can trigger a manic episode. I end up crashing after 48 hours or so - that's when I'm dying to sleep. Then I sleep 4 hours and do it again for 48 straight hours. A little bit terrifying right?

Instead the best thing I found was to accept that sometimes my sleep will be like this hellish nightmare, because of disabling chronic fatigue flare up and psychiatric issues. Giving myself permission to have awful hellish sleep nights seems like the honest best I can do - anything else seems to be gaslighting me and making me feel awful.

The problem with any kind of conscious cognitive technique, it seems, is that there are large stretches of time where I don't seem to have full conscious experience or control of my behavior. Given this and my propensity for mental OCD, I have had really negative effects from cognitive behavioral therapy in the past. Instead of letting me recognize and eliminate cognitive distortions, the CBT routines seem to add new forms of suffering rumination.

So I'm worried that cbti could have similarly aggravating effects for people who have underlying psychiatric issues. Note that the author did specify that the doctor worked to eliminate psychiatric issues from consideration before moving to CBTi. I don't think that will be enough to prevent people from trying to self help with cbti after reading this article... So I am noting here that if you have psychiatric stuff, your outcomes could be significantly improved - and potential dangerous bends in the road avoided - if you consult with a well-trained, well published, and highly experienced PhD in this field.
Between massacring the UX and copilot I've more or less stopped engaging with github. I got tempted the other day to comment on an issue and it turns out the brain trust over at Microsoft broke threaded comment replies. They still haven't fixed keyboard navigation in their bullshit text widget.

I could put up with the glacial performance if it actually worked in the first place, but apparently adding whiz bang "AI" features is the only thing that matters these days.

> free-at-point-of-use human labor

Slavery was not free. The slaver still had to guard, feed, house, and provide medical care. Contrary to common belief, the only industry where it was profitable to use slaves was cotton. (One reason the South failed to industrialize.) One of the problems the South had was even that was becoming steadily less profitable.

The US became the dominant economic power of the world because of free (as in freedom) labor.
Do you know anywhere I could read more about this?
Meanwhile, features like "secure" boot will stop you from patching this spyware out when it inevitably becomes impossible to disable completely via ordinary means, and even if you manage to find an exploit to "jailbreak" through, remote attestation will ostracise your machine from all the services that will eventually use the "telemetry" gathered to grant or deny you access based on how "human" you are.
WTF are you on about? Lol
It was surely just schedule pressure. There's no system-visible API for "incognito mode" (nor should there be, obviously, as it would defeat the purpose) so they just skipped it.

I dunno, and I say this as someone who works for a competitor and has no love for MS... a lot of the responses here seem really uncharitable. This isn't bad faith, it's just a rushed product with some poor planning. If Apple had rolled this same feature out with glitz and a giant slideshow about privacy and explained how everything was encrypted and never left the device, we'd all be crowing about how great it is even if it too was screenshotting incognito windows.
I'm a software guy and my first reaction was the same: "Two words: eBay, Linux".

But then it turns out: taking the harddrive out of that Powerbook Duo 280c is kinda sorta a real mess for it requires taking the entire laptop apart (I just looked at an online teardown video of that old Mac laptop).

Now the advantage of eBay+Linux is that it works even if the screen is broken, if the laptop doesn't boot, etc. It works as long as the harddrive still boots.
It depends on what you see as an appropriate reaction to wikileaks and Snowden. It was a structural problem, and no governing parties ever tried to stop it so voting it out for instance wasn't a solution.

Perhaps Trump's support could be a far reaction to it, with no clear direction but just a strong wish to screw it all. We see the same in other countries where people go to the extremes as discomfort rises with no actionable way.
So which analogy (involving an habit-fraught chronic abusive relationship) would you use, if I told you you couldn't spend the next 10+ minutes carefully triangulating every detail for your maximum safety from negative online comments?

Exactly, which is what I said in my earlier comment that you seem to have misunderstood.
Yeah I'm also wondering what kind of perf drag it would be. I'd probably just turn it off. Like when would I ever want this?
Yeah, it's not like they give you a high priced litigator. What you do get is someone to work through the return with you to verify things and a consultation on what the options are. The details vary by which company you go with.
