Personally, I'm doing no bundlers (of my own code) and no minification in my development loop, but still using types with tsc --watch. Typescript is faster the closer it gets to just "type stripping" (where the target and module formats are both something like `es${currentYear - 2}`, especially in the default emit pattern where the JS files just get output side-by-side the TS files they input). TSX to JS transformation, with Typescript (as the only tool in that chain [0]), isn't much extra work to slow it down. (TSX is a pretty easy transformation from its syntax to simple function calls. The hard part of TSX is getting types right.)

[0] So no Babel, only Typescript. You probably don't need Babel in 2024.

(ETA: I've even documented this development pattern for a library I built: https://worldmaker.net/butterfloat/#/getting-started)
So it basically sounds like you completely agree with me? I was not disputing that expelling all the illegal immigrants in the US is probably impossible. I was disputing that they'd become citizens.

> you'd get all the benefits of living in the US

There are more benefits to US citizenship than "not being deported". Illegal immigrants certainly don't have all the same benefits a citizen (or even legal immigrant) has.
Ernest Shackleton's Missing Ship Has Appeared in the Atlantic After 60 Years
If using an AC, it is okay to keep the AC running with the window slightly open. This slows down the CO2 buildup while preserving most of the cooling. I would never go over 770 ppm though. Also, the Energy Saver mode of an AC obviously results in a much worse indoor CO2 level.
The challenger disaster was a case study when I was in school: The important lesson is about human psychology, and why it's important to not speak up when something is dangerous.

Basically, the "powers that be" wanted the launch and overruled the concerns of the engineers. They forced the launch against better judgement.

Besides that, SQLite seems promising, but not sure how exactly this relates to everything. The website is talking about saving in browser, and there is no release on the GitHub. Is this something running in browser only?

I'm not doubling down or using it as a retort. I wanted an actual answer to the question, particularly since you so adamantly claim that China is far for human rights than the USA.

Your answer is that it is friction of change from where you are, which is fine, although a bit at odds with your stridency about how bad the USA is and how innocent China is.

If you are right that China/CCP has already won, you should really consider getting motivated to overcome that friction and go there. Especially considering how most of the West is withdrawing from China, your skills and attitude will likely be quite welcome there.

(Or, perhaps consider that your motivation levels are not aligned with the attitude you present because maybe your attitudes aren't quite aligned with reality?)
Here's a thought. I got a new phone and transferred zero apps over to it from the backup. I only download an app as I need it.

Today's experiment: Hold down the safari app icon and see what happens. The icon has a minus sign at the top left corner, meaning that it can be deleted. In earlier versions of ios, you couldn't delete Apple preinstalled apps.

No, I didn't delete it. I surf in moderation, mainly because the screen and virtual keyboard are too small for me to use for more than a minute or two when away from the computer or ipad. (which have real keyboards)

I'm surprised there isn't some MagSafe style connector for EVs. Seems like it would combine the benefits of direct connection with the convenience of hands free operation. Part of the reason might be that I think manufacturers like to keep the charger away from the front of the vehicle to keep it from getting damaged in fender-benders.
Great insight!

I always saw the TI99/4A as one of the "zillions" of "microcomputers" in the 70s/80s but from your comment I now learnt that it was not so simple regarding Texas Instruments, one of the leaders (if I remember well) of the semiconductor industry at that time. Also the ColecoVision [2] used a variant of that chip. The ColecoVision had the best version of Donkey Kong [3] available in game consoles.

If we truly listen to the pronunciation of small children they often substitute easier sounds for difficult ones for many years. We just expect that from children so it seems normal.
If you don't want to go the DIY route, and also are interested in a weather station, Ambient Weather is great. It just works out of the box (the CO2 sensor is an add on), and supports a large pile of local APIs and cloud service integrations.

We went with one of the fancier models, including a nice LCD display and a solid state (ultrasonic) wind monitor, since we get hurricane-level gusts around here. It's held up fine so far. One annoyance: At least the last time I checked, all the sensors have to be in radio range of the base station. It'd be nice if they had WiFi bridges so we could monitor multiple buildings, etc, with one system.

Damn I built a RAG agent during the past 3 months and a half for my internship. And literally everyone in my company was asking me why I wasn't using llangchain or llamaindex like I was a lunatic. Everyone else that built a rag in my company used llangchain, one even went into prod.

I kept telling them that it works well if you have a standard usage case but the second you need to something a little original you have to go through 5 layers of abstraction just to change a minute detail. Furthermore, you won't really understand every step in the process, so if any issue arises or you need to be improve the process you will start back at square 1.

This is honestly such a boost of confidence.
Sorry for the naive question - but what is an example of “send a message to another CPU”?
In high level programming languages, isn’t this usually over shared memory as well? Are there constructs to directly “message” a CPU? When might one use it?

One of the things I always have to explain when applying for a new job is about the substantial number of years I've run my own software businesses.

The interviewer's fear is always the same: that if I take the position, I'll be leaving shortly in order to start another venture. I explain (and point out in my work history) that isn't the case. I don't take permanent positions with the idea that they're temporary. If I wanted a temporary position, I'd do contract work instead.

I don't know if this aspect of my work history has ever cost me a job, but if so, it doesn't matter. I land jobs anyway.

That right already exists. These Acts are always struck down by the EU's Court of Justice along with all others that are in conflict with the founding legal documents of the Union.

The problem is that there isn't a mechanism to refer a proposed Act to that court before it's passed to prevent it hitting the books in the first place, and I think that's something that's easier to fix than (eg) trying to introduce new freedoms to the Bill of Rights when Hungary is able to block that.

Locally it'd be progress if member states stopped attempting to transpose new EU law when that law is clearly going to be struck down later on. National courts have that expertise but refuse to use it.
I don't think this just about 'the competition getting wiser' or 'the market for EV's getting bigger'. People aren't buying Tesla because of Musk. Maybe not every missed sale is for that reason - but if you think for one minute that his behavior and his positions doesn't affect car sales - you're simply mistaken.
I don't relish all of the issues which will eventually surface with SpaceX's Starship, which makes Space Shuttle development look like a paragon of high quality development practices. Starship is built in a metaphorical barn with a "fuck around and find out" attitude.

SSI vs. OpenAI
I do agree that we might want to offload mundane and boring / repetitive tasks which do not add value to our lives. But this 'value' is a personal and subjective thing, so it's hard to give a recipe there which will fit everyone.

Hence I think its important for people to be educated in how to maintain this balance of easy-life vs. hard-life to optimise for their own life what they will get from it.

I for example do not use intellisense nor auto-correct. (i do make a lot of spelling mistakes!). I want to learn to program, so intellisense will break that learning. I do not want to 'produce programs' - for which intellisense is _super good_ as it will increase productivity a lot. I know most people make the tradeoff the other way, as they prefer productivity over learning.
Pb binds with greater affinity, but is that good? calmodulin is generally though to be regulated by changes in calcium levels. higher affinity cation could inhibit that function, no?

That interpretation of the historical data goes counter to the authors view that the lead levels may be anecdotal due to location of a lead mine, and lead levels were not found in an individual from a different site.

"Periods of lead exposure during the childhoods of these two French Neanderthals are remarkable, as biogenic lead bands were not apparent in the ~100-ka-old Belgian individual discussed above, and decades of research have shown that there is no safe level for lead in humans and other animals."
I looked through the literature and it seems that condoms are quite effective at preventing HSV infection when used, especially from male to female (on the order of 99%), and less so for female to male (around 60-70%). I would suspect the reason for failure is behavioral. People probably don't apply the condom until after most of foreplay is over and HSV-2 can be transmitted during "outercourse".
Probably a little later but I had an Amstrad 8086 as a teen. I think it was the first computer I bought with my own money.
You may be right. But in my case, I can tell you for certain that I do not ramble. Not at work, anyway. (Unless you ask me about my hobbies.) I actually tend not to talk much at all because I'm not one of those people who talks just to "be social," or to fill in silence, or to give the appearance of being involved in the conversation. As a rule, I only speak up in meetings when I have something that's actually worth the effort of bringing up.

What I do, however, is talk a bit slower than my peers because my brain seems to process my speech differently from how everyone else seems to process theirs. Most people can just say whatever is on their mind with no delay or hesitation, with perfect grammar and factual accuracy.

I am not like that. I have to write (and edit!) the full sentences out in my head ahead of time and then recite them--as if reading off note cards--instead of letting my brain go on autopilot and say whatever it wants. Otherwise the things I say will turn out to be... let's just say, less than coherent. And it gets far, FAR worse when I'm struggling with insomnia, which is often.

So when someone interrupts me in a meeting, after I recover from the rudeness I have to either stop and re-work everything I was going to say to address what they just said (which was very possibly going to be answered in the second part of the sentence they interrupted), or I just shut up altogether under the assumption that the group doesn't actually care enough about my thoughts on the matter to actually listen to them.
We sell to K12 schools. Depending on the district sometimes they'll have a single IP for an entire district. If not, often a single IP for the building.

This makes things like DoS protection... Interesting as we can regularly have thousands of users legitimately using our stuff from the same IP concurrently.
You don't have to act dumb (and you shouldn't). You just have to not act like a "rock star". The most brilliant devs I've ever met were people nobody would call "rock stars". They were collaborative team players.
"wireless charging" as a technology has been pretty baffling to me -- to make it even remotely efficient almost every practical consumer implementation uses some form of mechanical alignment and contact system. As long as you are resigned to do that, why not just use normal mechanical contacts instead?

I have Apollo Automation MSR-1 (it does multiple things, including CO2 and mmWave movement/presence detection; they also have AIR-1 which tracks all sorts of air quality metrics such as VOC etc), flashed with ESPHome reporting to my Home Assistant setup.

It's main advantage is that it's extremely affordable compared to the competition, and entirely local.

Also I have a Netatmo Indoor Air Quality Monitor (requires their cloud service to work, but there's a Home Assistant integration too) which, alongside PM2.5 and CO2, also does sound and alerts me when music/etc. is too loud.
If SpaceX can put their costs online in a pricing calculator, your SaaS can too.

I'm still waiting for this to take effect.
This is my take from this as well. I doubt that the developer in this story is literally thinking "these tools make it impossible for me to progress", I'm sure they're aware there's some way past whatever roadblock is there. So I'm not really sure what the complaint is about. Is the developer supposed to say "boo hoo I'm so stupid I'm stuck and don't know how to unstuck"? Does it make the situation any better if they blame themselves instead of the tools?
Ritt can tag arbitrary files too. I like TagSpaces, but I don't think modifying the user's files, either by renaming or sidecar files, is the best approach. Ritt handles tagging purely by linking to the tagged files and so is completely non-perturbative.

Yes, I've done exactly this with my constraint solver ( https://github.com/minion/minion ). Famous last words, almost all bugs that have been reported have been repeatable with 6 variables of domain size at most 6 (maybe even less).

The only exceptions are cases where integer overflow occurs, and those really need seperate tests. I'm mostly handling that by putting fairly conservative bounds on maximum integer values, and asserting if those are ever violated, because (particularly as academic software), an assertion where your solve might work but is undertested is (in my mind) infinitely better than a wrong answer.
The fundamental problem is that people want this stuff to be fixed, but virtually no one wants to sacrifice an inch to do it. So the only way things can really change is if a functionally equivalent or better replacement comes along.

The Montreal Protocol worked so well because it told companies/countries to phase out what was already an old refrigerant and instead use a more modern and efficient r134a.

If someone invents something functionally identical to PFAS at a lower cost and without all the toxicity, you'll have a global protocal signed in a month with everyone eager greenwash their PR with how they stopped using PFAS. And consumers will be happy because they don't have to sacrifice an inch of quality of life.

The issue with Linux for productive work (for me) is that I end up fiddling with it rather than getting stuff done. Windows is not much better (those hard to skip full screen ads after updates).

MacOS for me is the one that has fewer distractions.

I've been using the same image since 2006 (I upgraded OSes and migrated from one notebook to the next) with no issues, no reinstalls.

That's 18 years having a really stable environment.
I think more like 70 years at this point. It's been SOP for the conservatives to get elected to govern, make government worse at every turn while enriching themselves and their friends, and then turning around to the public and being like "look how badly this works, clearly we need to cut taxes since it isn't working" and rinse and repeat until every institution in the world is borderline non-functioning.

It really doesn't. Rich countries have base rules that all must follow. Justin Timberlake was just arrested for drunk driving. He might get off because he can afford the best lawyers, but he was arrested. That is a thing that happened. It would not have happened in somewhere like Tajikistan where a roadside bribe would nullify the entire situation. For the equivalent of a few hundred bucks they would have given him a ride home and nobody would be the wiser.
This would be a fascinating Code Golf challenge.
