I like your approach of making lots of little extensions. I've found myself doing the same:

- hunnit: makes google return 100 results [1]

- youtube-global-speed: sets the default speed across all of youtube to 1.5 [2]

- invidious-linker: links youtube videos to mirror sites (i.e. so there's no ads - not necessary while uBlock Origin still works, but good for future) [3]

- odds-to-percentage-converter: converts betting odds to percentage win probabilities on political betting sites [4]

With each little improvement using the web becomes a little less shitty.

I will be using your 'HN - Saved You a Click' extension. Thank you :)

How will they ever understand web components.
Honestly, for my parents it has been a delightful experience. They have quite a basic usage of their computer, mainly web browsing, some Excel/Word, managing files like photos, and occasionally printing.

I didn't brief them much, I just installed and configured everything that was necessary for them, and let them figure out the rest. To my surprise, they managed everything on their own! Which made me realize how far UX went in the Linux world.

In terms of maintenance, every six months when I get home for a visit, I run some updates and answer some of their questions. It's very low maintenance, especially compared to Windows.

Also, I noticed quite an interesting side effect when installing Mint for non-techy people. They feel empowered because I trust them to run Linux, which they believe is reserved to the elite techies. This also makes them respect their computer more, which in turn makes them run into less issues as they are more careful with that they do.

Yes but see the group size limits on iMessage which is 32!!

> I bet they will be more explicit about uncertainty next time based on the last time

This is highly euphemistic. We were explicitly lied to for our own good, over and over again. Including about masks being ineffective early on (to save them for healthcare providers), about ventilators, about the effectiveness of the vaccine, about the vulnerability of normal populations as compared to older ones, the plausible origins of the virus itself, etc. It was over and over again. And again--that's without the injection of left-wing politics as noted in my previous comment.

> As far as the speed of revisions

We had kids out of schools for years. An entire generation is now significantly behind comparable cohorts, and the only reason we even stopped is because the opposition eventually made it untenable. We forced many small businesses to fail and gave out interest-free loans to many others that never need to be paid back. People were forced to get vaccinated or lose their jobs.

I feel like our response to COVID-19 (at least in the US) is like a litmus test for how well one accepts authoritarianism. If one lived through that as an adult, I don't know how one would trust what the medical establishment says next time around, except to trust that it's what they want the unwashed masses to think.

I've been doing the sales engineer thing for a few years now. Salesforce management is a big part of my job, as this is what the salespeople use to track opportunities and deals.

The data that goes into SFDC is a big part of what gets reported on in sales/revenue forecasts, so it existing is extremely important and is a big reason why Marc Benioff has, like, a billion yachts.

At its core, SFDC is nothing more than a database and a shitload of plugins that enter stuff into that database.

Notion can, theoretically, do this as well.

Given how large the TAM is for revenue management software and how much Marc pays to acquire anything in his space, Notion chasing that market makes a lot of sense.

Unless you're building a local first app (i.e. google sheets), the backend for most web apps is the source of truth. SPAs that lazy load tons of data on the frontend are introducing a lot of complexity trying to sync state between the frontend and backend.

Having a single source of truth by push things down into the backend is a godsend in terms of limiting complexity.
Perhaps. And you could probably test this but I would gamble that the principle still applies. IE, these weightlifters are probably also very capable (eg) shotputters because of all that weightlifting. But also... their shotput, sprinting and other tangential abilities probably peak at some point. From then on, they are mostly just getting stronger at clean and jerk.

> Hormonal responses are global. Endurance/strength is a spectrum but the whole body goes along for the ride.

This is true, and that is why most exercise is a general good for most people, and has similar physiological effects. However, at some point "specialization" (term of art), kicks in. At that point, a bigger clean and jerk no longer equates to a longer shot put.

Fwiw... This isn't a point about exercise or how to exercise. Most people aren't that specialized or advanced in a sport and the ones who are have coaches. My point is that the phenomenon speculated to be broad in this post applies (I suspect) to physiology. Probably quite broadly. It's just easy to think about it in terms of sports because "training & optimization" directly apply.

Full native isolation. HTML, CSS, JS, the whole thing, no tricks, the browser isolates it for you.

They are very good for progressive enhancement, for example you could have a web component that wraps a <table> to add fancy features like filtering or drag-and-drop reordering. If JS is disabled or fails to load, the user just gets a plain table, but they still get the content. When this stuff was new, that was much better for the user than what would happen with a front-end framework (they would get a white page), but now server-side rendering is widely available in those frameworks it’s less of a selling point.

They are also good for style encapsulation, i.e. you could drop someone else’s component in your page and not worry about it affecting or being affected by your CSS. Anecdotally I feel like that is less of a common desire now than it was ~10 years ago, with the rise of both “headless” UI libraries (behaviour without dictating appearance) and the prevalence of scoped styles in front-end frameworks.

What does annoy me about the standard is that to use slots you must opt into the shadow DOM, which means that if you’re trying to create reusable components for your own stuff, you can’t style them just by dropping a stylesheet into the page. I’m sure there’s a technical reason why this is the case, but annoying nonetheless.
True, but for some companies there are also national security concerns. If we lose the domestic supply chain for certain items then that limits our freedom of action and leaves us vulnerable to supply disruptions.

Evaluation of a Stand-Alone Photovoltaic Heat Pump Dryer Without Batteries
I'd read it as a symptom of something going pretty badly wrong. For example, imagine a funny scenario where a business decides that it needs to use computers to improve efficiency. Some desktop towers are bought. The front-line employees use them as the physical foundation for a new table that they needed and report "mission accomplished" up the chain. The problem in this scenario is that while technically yes, real problems are being solved with the suggested tool someone here is badly, badly out of touch with what needs to be happening to see real improvement.

Similarly here, if there is a formula that stupid being used, even as a memory aid, it suggests to me that real lives could be saved if they embed a few real Ops Research specialists somewhere important instead of whatever they are doing.
It sounds like the reasonable version of this argument would be "We've been using React with a Rails back end for a while now, and rather than refactor our front end to use Hotwire/Alpine/etc. and be more compatible with the modern Rails paradigm, we'd rather keep our existing front end and move to Next."

Judging from depth of thought in the the actual arguments he's making, I expect that he's deploying to Vercel.
Yes, I previously mentioned the “perfect as the enemy of good” argument.

Like I already said, I use and like Svelte. But the vast majority of the web dev ecosystem uses React. Web components would be better than everyone using React. Arguably everyone using Svelte could be better still but that’s a separate debate.

> your response brings up React as if it somehow changes that.

It does. Because the industry clearly has no problem with a large upfront cost, given that it imposes one today. Web components would be better than what we have today even if it isn’t the ideal.
Yeah, those visually impaired people should be constantly changing their screen reader software so as to follow the eternally changing wave of web dev. That's totally a feasible and reasonable thing to ask. I'm sure the shadow dom is giving those dynamic screen readers zero problems. /s

He worked with our group a bit in YC S16. He helped us rename our company to a better brand that targeted are demographic better. Was a pretty reasonable guy, soft spoken, logical, easy to work with and gives blunt advice.
The point being made is that web components can pay this cost per-component, and this problem will compound over time. This is an unprecendented cost to frontend framworks and it's the expected usage pattern.
