I think the issue is that many intelligent and curious people get restless when they do the same thing for years. Eventually you stop growing and you stagnate. First it's boring, then, for many people, it becomes depressing. Even Leonardo Da Vinci got seriously bored of painting (and procrastinated a ton on his commissions, dragging them for years on some cases) once he mastered it. That's why so many people daydream about switching to a different career, including plenty of people daydreaming about switching to coding. They don't neccessarily hope the other career will be better, but they yearn to do something new and not be stuck in Groundhog Day.

Working a minimum wage could buy a starter home "back then". It now can hardly pay rent, and starter homes essentially no longer exist, even if someone wanted one.
And then some wonder why people resort to js-controlled spas and tend to forget how they cursed after their “simple html form” deleted input due to navigation or accidental refresh. Input is the most valuable data in a program because it cannot he recalculated and usually reqiures work to produce. Anything that doesn’t get this principle sucks.

That said, I don’t think src=form.json would help. Some type of a local permanent storage is basically required for app-level interaction, because the page state is so transient and fragile. I’d say it should be <form storage="foo."> and all controls would be saved as foo.<name> into localStorage. With <form storage="foo." reset> received from backend to reset it explicitly if needed.

Messenger apps don't claim that this history should be global and consistent. The order in which messages were sent and received by my device is a perfectly fine (and I'd say intuitive) history. It is the order people (and their records, if they have some) would have had in mind in the old time.

I take a different conclusion from the way people look at physical objects: since your device (or even my other device) is a different physical object than my device, I'd be wholly unsurprised to find a different order there.

Taking arguments from the most delusional crypto bros at the time and trying to sell them as something that "everyone" was saying about NFTs in general isn't a way to engage in good faith discussion.

Some NFTs/art might appreciate in value, but most NFTs/"art" are worthless on the open market.
Cryptocurrency when not being used for speculation or investment nonsense has already successfully provided a pressure release valve for abuse by the credit card cartels. It still sucks, and isn't very convenient or good for most transactions or safety. But it works!

It would be more ideal to just regulate the credit card companies properly but that appears to be beyond current government bodies.
Eggs are such a red herring. I pay $6 for eggs. You know how much I’d save with eggs at half price? A whopping $12 a month. Meanwhile my rent goes up by 10x that a year and thats with rent control. Everyone gets all bent out of shape about the price of gas and the price of food but that could realistically double and you’d only be out another what $200 a month or so. No its the rent that is the squeeze for most people not the eggs being $6 and the gas being $5. But of course that is the headlines and not the focus on the lack of housing supply due to restrictive zoning.

> RegEx DDoS

you don't seem to have any understanding what SPAs are. There is no server-side code in your SPA, all code is run on the users browser. If you do any sort of DoS, you will bring down the users browser, not the server hosting the SPA. How is that a feasible attack vector?

> Query Injection

Again, not SPA relevant. What is injected? How do you even inject that code into the browser of a user, if you do not have access to the server-side end of the application? XSS, as I said, is mostly mitigated in SPAs that use CSP.

I find your approach very strange. Whether you are applying for ME or PhD program, I would expect your criteria to be the subject area coverage, the expertise of the teaching and research faculty.

You would need to research the professors, their teaching and research focus and then based on that information contact them about applying to their school/program. Why do you care about the other students. Every person is studying/researching for their specific reasons which are unlikely to align with yours.
Confabulation, if the desire is to use a more apt psychological analogy.

And all of them are only relevant for server-side nodejs applications, not SPAs as the user original poster was referring to (React CSR). Your points are all moot and irrelevant to the actual topic discussed.
perfect pitch is rare. it isn’t trainable. most people deep in music know this. u drop a ball on the piano and it hits 6 notes and the person tells u the pitches. you break glass on the ground and they tell you those pitches too. Meanwhile people with trained pitch can do somewhat decently with enough training and certainly someone playing an instrument long enough will just know which notes are being played on that instrument but it isn’t the same thing. absolute pitch is RNG even among music students.
I'm pointing out exactly the same thing I was in my original post: There is no axis on which OCaml is top 5. If you want control, there are better languages, if you want ecosystem, almost every language beats it. It's practically speaking never the best choice for anything. Basically the only reason anyone would ever choose it (for pretty much anything) is because they like it.
> There is no source of truth

There is no «source of [_simple_] truth» for complex things, but there are more (instead of less) objective complex evaluations.

Note that this is also valid for factual notions: e.g., "When were the Pyramids built?".
Nuclear is not down for intrinsic reasons, it is down because it comes after renewables in merit order, and therefore when renewables are available, it is scaled down.

In low renewables availability episodes, there isn’t more fossil production, we simply ramp nuclear up.
The fact that it is not physical makes Bitcoin more valuable. Why? Because I can store millions of it in my pocket. I can move millions around the world in less than an hour. 24/7. No banks or approvals or intermediaries required. I can keep it in my own custody safety. It is easy and fast to exchange. It is easy to validate its authenticity. The supply is fixed and near impossible to dilute. Etc.. Etc..

that is why Bitcoin is valuable. It’s valuable because it stores value with all the important properties I listed above. Those properties are intrinsic to Bitcoin. Say that for any other asset.

If you’re worried about civilization crashing and Bitcoin becoming worthless. Fair enough, you should diversify into guns and toilet paper.

It's not a snide way of saying it. I'm saying it only benefits a small portion of truly poor countries where people have absolutely nothing.

There's a reason countries push retirees out, barring the ones who are incredibly rich, once they develop into a middle economy. It's because a typical retiree making a low six figures or less becomes literal dead weight. Locals can make more money than them while actually doing a job.

Thailand is pushing foreign non-workers out because they're developed to the point that they don't need or want those people. Decades ago, Thailand was incredibly poor. One retiree could splurge a bit of cash and pay the wages of dozens of people. That era is gone. Now it's just people acting like they own the place and driving up prices of property that locals are now competing for.

And yes, they could incentivize more people to become doctors for foreigners. But not everyone wants to grow up to be a servant and literally wiping the bums of an elite class of elderly colonists. Some prefer to work in other fields.

And yes, they could build new houses. Your home country could build new houses too. Retire at home and just build a new house there instead of going to a "cheaper" country. If it's too expensive at home, just get more money and build more.

And no, the won't expand issuance of visas because they need to take care of their own elderly.
That's the irony of it all isn't it - since it's bound to traditional currencies for it's valuation, it's essentially the same thing as a traditional currency except you can't inflate it by printing more of it.

The article quotes Draghi as saying “If we exclude the tech sector, EU productivity growth over the past 20 years would be broadly at par with the US,” so I think it agrees.

Of course, Nietzschean teaching is not identical with the official ideology of Hitlerism. It cannot be because Nietzsche stopped thinking on the eve of imperialism: for him the age of imperialist barbarism is still a dream of the future, while fascist ideology arose as a repulsive product of decay of developed imperialism. This difference in periods also determines the difference in intellectual and aesthetic level. Nietzsche is a man of broad and varied culture, in contrast to the ignorance of Hitler or Goering, the boastful half-education of a Rosenberg or Goebbels; For all his mannerisms, he is a witty and important stylist who – albeit often problematically – has nevertheless worked creatively in language, in contrast to the barbarization and rape of the German language under Hitlerian tyranny. In addition, one could also point out many individual deviations. Nietzsche always despised anti-Semitism.

Despite all these conceptual, aesthetic, and moral differences, Rosenberg rightly named Nietzsche the ancestor of German fascism. For Nietzsche carried the glorification of barbarism into German philosophy, and the more justly one assesses his intellectual abilities, his cultural-critical work, the more clearly one must see that the change he made created the basis for that reactionary development in German ideology, from which fascism then drew its intellectual arsenal.

I think there are a couple of important things missing from this article. One is that until relatively recently clothing served a very different function to that of today.

In Europe, in our grandparents’ or even parents’ childhoods - as late even as the 1970s - housing and transport was very different to how it is now. Clothing was largely purpose-specific; people had far fewer clothes than today but those clothes had more specific purposes. For men that mean different weights of woollen suits for spring and autumn versus winter, and linen suits for summer.

Houses weren’t so well insulated or heated so you dressed to stay warm. With cars less common, you dressed for the outdoors. Hats weren’t fashion statements: they were to help keep you dry and warm.

Go back 100+ years and roads were much worse, people travelled by horse.

Capes, gloves, boots: things like this were all a defence against mud and rain and weather. If you were riding a horse you needed something like a cape with a high collar to stop your back and face getting splattered with mud thrown up by the horse’s hooves.

But more importantly, at the wealthy end of society, dressing was an indication of status and leisure. The clothes in the first picture are clearly somewhat impractical, but that doesn’t matter if your only task for the day is to sit and talk or stroll gently. If you have a team of people to dress you and look after your clothing you can wear impractical layers of clothing that seem ridiculous today. Those layers were still designed to serve a purpose - largely keeping warm - but the application and design of that purpose became exaggerated as purpose took a subsidiary role to status.

Many countries also had “sumptuary laws” which forbid lower classes of people from using certain fabrics or colours or dressing in particular ways. This meant that clothing for the higher classes was an articulation of power and status: in the 17th century you could tell instantly from someone’s style of dress whether they were a peasant, farmer, merchant, or aristocrat. That articulation of status - for the highest classes - meant that clothing was designed to show off the elements of dress that were reserved to that class of people.
Then they're cheating on their taxes, and that government should probably look into how that person can afford to stay there with zero income. A lot of countries have tax treaties with the US to cover this sort of thing.
> Virtually no one wants to live on the bare minimum

Many people prefer that to working.

The Seattle Times wrote an article decades ago where they interviewed a woman on welfare. They asked her what she'd do if her welfare was taken away. She replied "get a job".

They asked a couple of guys in a car with fishing equipment why they lived on welfare instead of getting a job. They replied that on welfare, they get to fish all day and enjoyed it.

I also knew a fellow for years who was on and off unemployment. He said he'd work at a job long enough to qualify for unemployment, then he'd f'up and get laid off. He'd then live off of unemployment, and would fail the requierd job interviews (amazing!). When that ran out, he'd have no trouble finding a job.

A friend of mine ran a nursery. He tried to hire a couple people who said they wanted the job, but would wait until their unemployment ran out before taking it. They were quite open about it.

Not that "absurd" at all.

The tiny LCD UI was a typical cost-cutting measure for synths from that era and isn't unique to FM or even digital synths.

I bought a vintage Yamaha TX81z (they're cheap on ebay) and while it features a tiny LCD UI it also comes with a very logical diagram printed on the top of the case. Yamaha's user manuals are also well written.

I've enjoyed making dozens of FM synth patches on all sorts of instruments (perhaps because I am attracted to the FM sounds that you still hear all the time in pop and dance music.) At the end of the day most synthesis methods boil down to two knobs: signal amplitude and spectral complexity, and FM isn't that different, especially with a single oscillator/operator pair.
They did bring up energy -- "The US may have been less affected by the war in Ukraine than Europe, owing to its abundant domestic energy supplies"

Some of those charts tracked wages rather than total employee compensation. The latter was quite a bit more.
I'd never thought about it that way, but you're exactly right. Roguelikes that feel like roguelikes always have a certain "open/transparent case" sense to them, even if the actual mechanics are hidden away from you a lot (such as in NetHack). They make a virtue out of not feeling curated and crafted (even though there's a lot of craft that goes into them), and the more narrative, cinematic quality, visual polish, etc. that gets added the less it feels like Rogue.
I never had my own room. Up until age of 14 I slept on bunk bed sharing a room with my brother and my parents, so it doesn't always mean a separate room.
Whats hard (and impressive in regards to those who came up with meaningful patches in the 80s) about starting with FM synthesis isn’t only the programmability (modern FM synths have that covered, see the other comments). It’s not an intuitive thing to work with algorithms and you need to learn what is happening.

I can recommend FM Theory and Applications by Musicians for Musicians for everyone who wants to create own patches:

I recently saw someone praising the scikit-learn documentation, mentioning this page specifically https://scikit-learn.org/1.5/modules/grid_search.html so I took the top section and asked Claude to classify it with this framework:

> This piece appears to be primarily an Explanation with some elements of Reference mixed in. This documentation appears to be trying to serve multiple purposes, which according to Diátaxis is not ideal. The mix makes it less effective at both explaining and serving as reference. Following Diátaxis principles, this content might be better split into: 1) A pure explanation section about the concept and importance of hyperparameter tuning, and 2) A separate reference section listing the specific tools and methods available.

> This blending of documentation types is exactly what Diátaxis warns against when it says "Unfortunately, too many software developers think that auto-generated reference material is all the documentation required" and "The writer, intent on covering the topic, feels the urge to include instruction or technical description related to it. But documentation already has other places for these."

> HOWEVER. Let's look at why this integrated approach works well in a User Guide context:

> Natural Learning Flow: The documentation follows how people actually learn and use tools: 1) First understand what hyperparameters are, 2) Learn why you might want to tune them, 3) See what tools are available, 4) Get pointed to practical implementation examples

> Contextual Knowledge: By integrating explanation with technical details, users can immediately connect concepts to implementation. There's no need to jump between different documentation sections to piece together understanding.

> Progressive Disclosure: The documentation starts with fundamental concepts and progressively introduces more complex tools and considerations. This scaffolding helps users build understanding naturally.

> Practical Value: By combining explanation with specific tools and methods, users can immediately apply what they're learning. The documentation bridges theory and practice.

You do understand that the supposed genesis of this (in Mr. Brain's own words) was that he filed an ethics complaint about his boss because she decided to reassign some office space he wasn't using anymore?

In what world do you think that this sort of behavior is remotely acceptable? How would you feel if a co-worker filed a harassment claim against you (which could have serious career consequences for you) for moving their lunch bag in the office refrigerator? That's basically what he did. Being allowed to resign was letting him off easy; at most universities he could have been terminated for cause.

Again: Mr. Brain put a colleague's career in jeopardy over office space. Think about that really hard before you comment again.
I don't believe there will be any other crypto replacing bitcoin. But I also don't believe in the 15 years of ecosystem, trust etc.

15 years later, and there is still no use of bitcoin at scale for pretty much anything other than speculating and illegal activities. And even the speculating is not really a use of bitcoin, as 99% of it happens off chain.

Genuine question though - you say no single actor can mingle with the chain. My understanding was that somebody with >50% of hash power can do that. Isn't the case now ?

Well, partly it is indeed about defining smalltalk.

"then I don't think that the problem is that the whole world is too dumb[2] for your level of "smalltalk" topics."

I also don't think other people are too dumb to have conversation with me.

But I do value silence more, than well "talking for the sake of talking".

Meaning 2 people thinking they need to do smalltalk, but both people are not that interested in the other person. Casual blabla to pass the time. Or artificial attempts to "network". (Won't work like this) I can smile about such awkward conversations, but not take part in it.

Otherwise I can make deep connections very fast with completely random strangers and talk about anything. If I feel like it.
