Nope. In order to be upvoted by an audience of highly techincal readers, I would hope that all one needs is to make a strong argument, or provide something interesting, or otherwise of value. Credentials can be a shortcut/filter to finding something of value. Someone may reasonably choose not to spend time reading something from someone with no credentials, under the assumption that most of everything is garbage. But, after having chosen to read it, the credentials no longer have any bearing. It's either good or it's not.

Well, that makes me wonder if the search isn't flawed primarily because it is an image search. I try to stress to my children how important it is to prefer reading material over "watching material". And while these are stills (photographs seems inappropriate), the fact that because they are images the search can't possible help you to self-correct. Google has no opportunity to show you the correct terminology within the results, and you do not learn enough to then go out and find the images you were hoping for.

I know there are exceptions. There are answers I've wanted that can be found within the first few minutes of the first video on Youtube, which I've gone days without discovering because I'm video-averse. But I suspect that the habit is, on average, more benefit than detriment.
imo htmx is good but its a bit too low level to use directly, you sort of have to rebuild all the features frameworks like React have, such as components in your server programming language.

I'm building https://htmgo.dev to do that with go + htmx, and http://fastht.ml seems like a good contender for python

That can only happen if Apple's first-party distribution terms aren't attractive. If the App Store is capable of standing on it's own, then third parties shouldn't pose a threat to it. Something tells me the lower prices and free software on alternative stores will drive adoption though.

This lawsuit is focused on Google. It's existence or the facts conveyed within do not provide any cover to Apple. They don't prevent Apple from facing the same lawsuit or from being covered by the same judgement.

Do you feel this way when we put a murderer away? I mean, "his murder was illegal, but yet, some people still get away with it?! What is this injustice?!"

The criticisms of Walmart 15 years ago are still pretty valid today, so I’m not sure this whataboutism really resonates with people.

It seems completely reasonable to split brick and mortar sales from web-based, given that the business model is pretty significantly different.

The blind hatred of paywalled content is exactly how we ended up with an ad-riddled shitty internet.
This is not an ad hominem attack. It's fair to ask about an author's credentials when they write a public article. (I do believe he lacks the credentials, but happy to hear a counter-argument.)
The article doesn't even attempt to explain why "accelerationism" is a dangerous path. I'm not sure if I share that assumption or not as I don't even know what exactly the author thinks it is.
I like my app store called "the internet."
Vaporware can always be better than actually existing software because vaporware doesn't have bugs or schedule/scope tradeoffs.
> The problem is gatekeeping access to software markets

However, it started out this way, from the beginning, and developers accepted it. This is easily demonstrable - customers would not have bought devices without apps, and vice versa. Very hard to show, in a court of law, that the terms which were once acceptable now magically aren't.

The law isn't interested in people who say, "yes, it was a perfectly fine contract, 10 years ago, but now it's a problem even though it hasn't changed." Imagine what would happen to mortgages.
Could the Django ORM deal with this?
Absolutely, give it another try! I've spent much of my life with GCed languages too. Axum, SQLite with SQLx, and Askama form a dev-friendly combo.

Once you grasp Rust's concepts, you'll find the control and efficiency rewarding. It's worth the effort!
US courts act on a 'When court cases come in' basis. They don't apply consistently or across the board like a Police Department or FBI.

But this suggests that if you sue Apple over this same issue, you have more legal standing to stand upon.

The court system overwhelmingly prefers consistency.
> Chunked encoding is used by video players - so you can request X bytes of a video file. That means you don't have to download the whole file, and if the user closes the video you didn't waste bandwidth. There are likely more uses of it.

Just a nitpick, but what you describe here is byte range requests. They can be used with or without chunked encoding, which is a separate thing.
As far as I understand it that's a correct interpretation of this incredibly fucking asinine ruling, yes.

I miss the era when the chattering class didn't know anything about tech. So nice to not be the product of think-pieces and in the ire of NYT readers.

The funniest bit is that the previous villains -- financiers and oil barons, etc. etc. - haven't gone away. I don't understand why the high-powered critics have completely pivoted to hating on tech. Say what you will about Google, OpenAI, etc. but we're not funding mass killings in the Niger river delta or foreclosing on people's homes.
Yep. Then consumers can decide which one is best for them. Then they can compete. Then the best features with the best pricing, no only for customers, but the cut for developers, can be discovered.

You pay such a high price for living in the walled garden. I honestly can't imagine why you would _want_ it.
Bridges take a lot of space (to make a gentle enough slope) and I think in many cases in Britain, that space isn't available.

Fixing one junction might just move the congestion to the next one, and if you continue fixing them you turn all the cities into jungles of concrete.

THIS. And this is the main reason why I hate the EU decisions. Apple was always 100% clear on their message. The App Store is a closed ecosystem. You hate it? You don’t have to use it. You can do PWAs.

If they attacked Apple on their PWA support, I’d have backed the case (though nobody cares, obviously). But the case as it is now is dumb.

I can see why they'd want to say "our competitor does it worse but we're the only ones being regulated". Sure, they'd rather not be regulated at all... but, if they are, then they want to be regulated no worse than their competitor.
That monologue was PAINFUL. My god not just the length of it but what an absolute blowhard to deliver such a self-righteous diatribe. I forgot about that until you mentioned it!
the criticism of argument from authority is really only valid for logic-based arguments (which only exist in math). In nearly every argument online, the topic is not logic-based, but more a combination of fuzzy reason and rhetoric. In such situations, we normally allow for some prior belief that people who obtained education and have worked in an area have some level of expertise that makes their arguments carry more weight. While you can argue whether this makes sense, it certainly seems reasonable to me- although I still apply skepticism to expert opinions.
Sure, I was speaking in the context of C specifically. (In non-simplistic compilers, you may not want to preserve the source structure anyway—e.g. in Scheme or Lua with tail calls all over the place.)

Another vote here for Anathem. That was a world I just wanted to curl up in and learn more about.

I love the book, but he didn't solve the Fermi Paradox. Nor did he come up with this explanation.

If that was the question, there would be far simpler answers. Like encryption. An encrypted signal looks like noise. Or point to point communication, which is far more efficient anyway.

The Fermi paradox is also about another question. Why can't we find alien or their artifacts in the solar system? Any species that wants, could, with not much more advanced technology than we have, if it wanted to, essentially settle the entire galaxy in a few million years. von Neumann probes being one of the early ideas for how to do this. Species could do this even in the dark forest situation, but for some reason despite the universe being 13.8 billion years old, no one has bothered to. That's pretty strange!

The dark forest also isn't his invention. He invented the term, but the idea dates back at least to Greg Bear from Forge of God in 1987. He called it a "vicious jungle". Liu Cixin did state it in more game theoretic terms though.

I believe the implication is that it's irrelevant whom has the power, just the someone can attain a lot of it.
Thanks. When I quit that job I didn't really have any other option lined up. But I had just finished my PhD and someone there at the university offered me a postdoc for six months and then I won a little grant that let me stay like another year and then I won another one for 3 years, and I started working at an AI company in my city. But at the time I was like, fuck now what am I going to do? Haha.

However, Apple still collected a 30% fee, just manually. It wasn't an integrated system, but you had to sign a legal agreement for the kickback.
Thanks for the motivation! I completely agree - using Rust to build a web app is truly refreshing. I've worked with Java, TypeScript, and Python in recent years, and it's gratifying to catch most errors at compile time instead of during runtime
Also, Py2 ended approaching Euler’s number, 2.7.18.

The entire conceit of capitalism is that competition is good, and that competition forces companies to better address their customers needs. If they're not doing this, then someone can come in and undercut them.

But what happens in the scenario where the person comes in, undercuts them, and then sells to the bigger company? How does this force the larger company to change? This is like antitrust 101.

I don't understand people who claim to be proponents of capitalism and are opposed to antitrust. If you want the free market to determine anything with fewer regulations, then we need antitrust. Otherwise we need a lot more regulations. Which one would you prefer?

I have a feeling you wouldn't recognize anticompetitive behavior despite it hitting you in the face for the past 10 years.
> it started out this way, from the beginning, and developers accepted it.

Developers did not accept it. Some did, but any amount does not constitute complete acceptance. From the very beginning, iOS had people developing alternatives to the App Store a-la Cydia. Apple's terms were always controversial.

Apple's constituent of app developers does not even remotely reflect the attitude (or assent) of the development community as a whole. It certainly doesn't represent a competitive or regulated market of software comparable to the web, the Mac, Android or Windows.
It is possible provided some care. I was looking into this with WAForth which compiles the wasm and loads it via a host function (ie. it is the hosts responsibility to make it available). I wanted to enable dynamic loading of words from disk which requires some book keeping and shuffling a bunch of bytes around during compilation to write out the bits necessary to have the host do that linking. It isn't impossible to do, just tedious and in my case, having to write it in WAT is a pain.

Welcome! Take a look at https://news.ycombinator.com/newswelcome.html

It's hard to get traction with a post of the whole blog / personal site. It's better to post a single one. I took a look at your blog, but both post are too short. (There is no hard rule about the length, this's just an unsupported personal opinion.)

About your main site: Did you wrote the animation of Hello World? It may be an interesting topic to write about and I guess people may like it.
Don't even need to...

First off, apparently gas pumps should have a flow rate around 8-10gpm. So 100 gallons is still only ten minutes of pumping.

But also... If you need 100 gallons to keep your house going for the week maybe, I don't know, try turning a couple (hundred) lights off or something for now?

Using 100 gallons over 7 days is 14.3 gallons per day. Assuming you can kill the generator while you're sleeping, figure 16 hours you have it running. So you're using 0.9 gallons per hour. Looking online, looks like for a gasoline generator ~6kWh/gallon is fairly typical.

So you're planning for, averaged out, a 5.5kWh draw continuously every hour you're awake.

If that's your typical power usage, you're looking at 5.51630.4 = 2,675kWh/mo, which at our electricity rates would cost me about $375 just in usage charges to buy from the grid (never mind the connection fees and stuff).

In reality we're using more like 4-6 gallons per day.

Thanks! I've been on it for some time. I can understand Beginner level most of time, even with 1.25x or 1.5x for most of the videos, but I find most of Intermediate can be significantly harder to understand. One possibility is that the there are more idiomatic phrases in Intermediate, like the use of reflexive verbs, such as hacerse, levarse, ponerse, irse and etc under different context. They are so different from English and I still need to translate them instead of comprehending them.
The legal agreement, and the fact developers signed it, even if begrudgingly, back when iOS did not have a monopoly in any way, is the only assent the law needs to consider.

Student loans certainly don't have much assent 5 years after graduation.
