Right, but other commenters call it the best EDR out there; so it is really hard for those of us outside the loop to understand what the hell is going on. Is CS, or any other EDR, actually preventing attacks that would pass through if absent? To what extent? Where are the numbers? Who audits CS code? I have seen no real data, only assertions.
I feel like if you really think there's a piece of evidence that you think needs to be shared you should link to some of the published journal articles tho book links to rather than trying to sell a product.

For me the advantages of just having JS files and not worrying about more complex source-maps, build files, etc definitely makes it worth it.

I found some obscure instances where user expectation doesn't match reality on GitHub before, and nobody there cares.

If anyone's wondering: Organizations that require SAML are included in your organizations even when you don't have a SAML session when signing in elsewhere via OAuth. Unlike generalized per-organization app authorizations, where GitHub can actually hide organization membership. Only way to find out if a user has a SAML session is for the consuming app to request the membership with your token, and interpret 403 as "no SAML session". As far as I know only Tailscale implemented this. This really sucks for apps like SonarCloud where someone can now view work code from their so cleanly separated personal and professional use GitHub account.
JSDoc does not scale, but some projects are just better when they aren't scaled.

JSDoc is indeed fine on toy project, or in fact any project (even prod-ready ones) that doesn't warrant the trouble of adding NPM packages and transpilation steps.

Although they are rare, those type of small, feature-complete codebases do exists.

> But even at its early-50s heyday, while Levitt was an efficient builder, he wasn’t unrivaled. Levitt and Sons sold its early Levittown homes for around $10 per square foot, but many other builders (none of whom operated at Levitt’s scale) sold their homes at similar prices.

As property prices have increased, I doubt that the cost of building the house is even the major cost factor - it's probably mostly property value for the lot.

Edit: It also strikes me that we have something even better today - pre-fab or "mobile" homes that can be delivered by truck to a suitable plot of land. These haven't solved the housing crisis either.
A one star place on Yelp is a warning, especially if there are implied health code violations. But anything else between two and five, I look at the pictures of the food and decide for myself. There's gaming going on for years but pictures can tell a lot, even if it's not everything.

The anti Yelp restaurants that delist themselves from various sites for whatever reason do not exist to me and will never get my business because I will never even think about them when I am thinking about where to eat.
I'm surprised they didn't launch earlier to ride the sentiment of avoiding Google services.
Southwest is not "the leader" of anything. They're struggling. If they were doing well there would be no motivation to add these changes. They lost 231 million dollars last quarter.

I personally stopped flying Southwest years ago when someone blatantly cut in line while boarding (like a whole section earlier) and I told the gate agent and he rolled his eyes at me and said "we're all trying to get going" I think their seating and check in system is dumb especially when they set up this elaborate system where you have to rush to check in exactly 24 hours before then get mad when you expect them to enforce it.

Fuck Southwest

This has absolutely nothing to do with inflation arguments. But I'll engage anyway. Federal debt service costs as a percentage of GDP over time: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/FYOIGDA188S

There was indeed a very large increase in 2020-21 due to pandemic assistance programs. But the actual cost of the debt remains about half of what it was in the mid-80's under the Reagan economy (where the absolute size of the debt was smaller but the interest rates required to service it were higher).

I think we came out of the 80's just fine. We'll survive this too.

I assure you that being allowed to teach well would greatly increase the pleasantness of life for a hell of a lot of teachers.

A positive association with Apple would make me slightly more likely to switch to iPhone next upgrade cycle with frustrations with my Pixel.
Despite preferring Apple's ecosystem over all others, I've built up quite a robust collection of "Favorites" and "Want to Go" and 'Starred" places in Google Maps, which makes the switching costs to move to Apple Maps high.

Is there a way to export that data from Google Maps? Will Apple offer an import feature?

20 years ago I found CS students at my Uni usually didn't know how to do version control, use an issue tracker, etc. Today they all use Github.

Remember computer science professors and grad students get ahead in their careers by writing papers not by writing programs. You do find some great programmers, but you also find a lot of awful code. There was the time that a well-known ML professor emailed me a C program which crashed before it got into main() and it was because the program allocated a 4GB array that it never used. He could get away with it because he had a 64 bit machine but I will still on 32 bits.

Early in grad school for physics I had a job developing Java applets for education and got invited to a CS conference in Syracuse where I did a live demo. None of the computer scientists had a working demo and I was told I was very brave to have one.
I installed retroarch from the App Store recently. Is it a different version?
Amelia Wattenberger shared her new WIP project: "I wanted to create a playground to help learn and discover how to write SVG code, which can be so funky!

Please go in with low expectations. Expect bugs, unpolished design, and confusing ui. Doesn’t work on mobile. waiting to get it to a good place ended up with me dropping it for a year or two, so here it is WIP."
I have to say, this is pretty bad even for a beta.

* the map is downright unreadable on a 34 inch ultrawide screen on Chrome/macOS, in dark mode - it's very dark grey on black, with small text in a weird font

* the UI is obviously mobile-style, badly inspired by Google Maps, with a tiny bar to the left; even when clicking on submenus (guides -> one of the guides), it stays miniscule even though there's a massive real estate to work on

* there's only by car and by foot, which means it's useless for a lot of the world that uses public transit or biking

* for some reason it defaults to the wrong measurement system even though my locale and location should be enough to deduce I don't care about miles

And it is such a fantastic resource to learn! You want to get into puzzles like they do on the channel? Just open a video, pause it, and click the link in the description. Stare at the puzzle, trying to figure it out. The first time you do this, you probably won't. Once you lose patience (but give yourself some time!), watch the video until Simon or Mark get to the first deduction and explain it. Pause the video again, and try to continue using your new knowledge. When you get stuck again, what (or skim) through the video until they do enter a deduction that you have not found. Rinse and repeat.

Do this a couple of times with different videos, and you will start to build a repertoire of techniques yourself. At some point, you will be capable of solving puzzles on your own. (And if you get stuck, the video is there to help you.)
That's how my wife and I got in, years ago.

I actually had assumed it was a myth created by their advertising department. Interesting to learn it was (is?) true.
Another reason is probably performance. Executing TS would require a lot of extra CPU and even more energy than JS.

A lot of effort and money has been invested into JS engines. I wonder if making a TS native engine (which nobody has made yet) from scratch might make more sense than adapting JS engines to run TS.

Soundness is also a highly theoretical issue that I've never once heard a professional TypeScript developer express concern about and have never once heard a single anecdote of it being an issue in real-world code that wasn't specifically designed to show the unsoundness. It usually only comes up among PL people (who I count myself among) who are extremely into the theory but not regularly coding in the language.

Do you have an anecdote (just one!) of a case where TypeScript's lack of type system soundness bit you on a real application? Or an anecdote you can link to from someone else?

This is an assumption and one that I believe is faulty. Humans' caring is often related to the degree of connection. Employees at a company are more closely connected to their customers than investors and are thus more likely to care more about those customers.

Monopolies are still bad either way, but I doubt that the failure modes at employee owned monoploes is the same as at outside investor owned monopolies.

It's how LLMs work in general.

If you find a case where forceful pushback is sticky, it's either because the primary answer is overwhelmingly present in the training set compared to the next best option or because there are conversations in the training that followed similar stickiness, esp. if the structure of the pushback itself is similar to what is found in those conversations.
To explain CHIPS very simply: In the Internet of yore, if you loaded example.com and it had facebook.com embedded, then facebook.com would be able to access all of the facebook.com cookies. This is fine on paper, but Facebook encouraged well-meaning website owners to add a "Share" button to encourage organic sharing of their website. When users loaded a page with this button, that embed would get access to all of the facebook.com cookies, thus being able to know who you are, and the site you were visiting from. They'd record this and use it for advertisements.

With CHIPS, you can login to Facebook.com and your cookies are stored in the "cookie jar" labelled "facebook.com." Then, when you go to example.com, the "cookie jar" that the Facebook embed can use is "example.com->facebook.com." This means that Facebook cannot use cookies to track you across every website.

Unlike outright blocking cookies, however, CHIPS still allow well-behaved embeds to function. This allows customer service chatrooms to retain history, videos to remember where you last stopped, and so forth, even on subsequent refreshes, since they can read and write to their own "example.com->[embedded site domain]" cookie jar.

This compromise perfectly breaks cross-site tracking, while allowing useful third-party embeds to still operate.
You're asking me if an economy that optimized for happiness instead of productivity would suffer from reduced productivity? Yes, yes it would, and it would also suffer from increased happiness.

Again, this is a culture thing, where I'm saying "I don't care about being productive, as long as I'm happy", and you're coming from a Protestant work ethic place of "but how can you be happy if you aren't productive?".

> Uber is happy for sure.

The online rumor is they flagged it as fraud.
> Why is taking out the part that actually checks the types at the developer's side a huge blessing?

Oh, no, certainly we want to keep type-checking in the pipeline, somewhere.

However, if the browser "understood" typescript, your codebase could have immediate hot-reload, without any transpilation in-between. The type-checking could then be (and already is when using something like esbuild/swc) an entirely separate process that happens independently.

Webpack's HMR is pretty good, but not having to modify the code at all to have it work in the browser, that'd be much much better :)

... the browser being able to typecheck (and reject violating code) itself is certainly something I'd love to see eventually, but fully agreed, this is not happening anytime soon.

No. AI will make most of our current work, Yes. Then we will figure out what we do that AI can't do. That's how tech evolves since always
IMAO writing (hard-coding) TypeScript is deprecated and a waste of time. With all tech available nowadays it is possible to do the entire type check automatically in the IDE, even more so now with the help of AI. It's just a matter of time when we stop hard-coding type info. Better invest time and money in getting the IDE's work better for us.
I’m shocked people used the card - most companies affected were big, surely they’d put this through legal first to check it doesn’t impact abilities to join a lawsuit later on etc…
If this means, that one day I don't need to use a bundler any longer to make a website using TypeScript, I am all for it.

> There's a large economics literature on this: worker-owned cooperatives have not taken over the market, although they are an available institutional form, because (a) they find it hard to raise capital

There are any number of ways of making it easier for co-ops to raise captital.

> (b) they tend to make decisions that maximize worker welfare rather than profit, e.g. they won't sack underperforming divisions or expand in ways that dilute existing workers' stake.

You could make a similar case that making decisions solely around stock price leads to underperformance as well, if we quantify "performance" in terms of value provided to the broader economy. Mass layoffs are great for stock price, but they deal serious damage to your institutional knowledge base. Rather than simply shuttering an underperforming division, if you buy out the ownership stakes of the people working there, they'll have cash to re-train with. If we find that co-ops have a tendency to avoid doing that when necessary, we can tweak the incentives and subsidize a portion of the buyout, under certain circumstaces. Subsidies to tweak incentives are nothing new.

> This isn't something that anyone can decide upon

Yes, it is. Policy can change which strategies predominate in the market, by shifting incentives, by controlling streams of investment, and simply by regulating undesirable strategies out of existence. Mixed economies can be very effective. The notion that the market is a force which out to go untampered with is ideological, and it doesn't serve us well.
The bigger question is then if they actually got paid overtime or this was just the overtime compensation.
If you had two problems, and a linear time solution was known to exist for only one of them, I think it would be reasonable to say that it's more likely that a practical linear time solution exists for that one than for the other one.

So yeah, it’s not simple, but it’s been done before and the concept works.

> For example the rant about "capital gains taxes" doesn't include the reason why you can't tax something that is not sold yet. It is wrong on so many levels. Suppose you have a home that is going up 10% and is worth +50000 USD. You haven't sold it yet, but you owe a tax out of the blue. Isn't that a bad idea?

I take your larger point, but for property specifically, we already do have a system in place for taxing unsold assets.
third party cookies track you across the web, on every site you visit, so long as the third party is in common. first party cookies are categorically different. I don't think the proposal is even the removal of third party cookies per se, rather that they be partitioned into silos based on the first party site. So there's no need for a workaround using first party cookies, but the capabilities exposed by cookies become categorically different.
