Americans love inventing field specific nomenclature. Like piping sizes, wire sizes, metal sheet thickness, plywood router bit size, construction wood size, furniture/raw wood size, etc

I have always thought it was just a side effect of capitalism. The more messy the units, the harder it is to enter a field without requiring the help of an expert sales.

If the army recognises it and Yoon does not, that's still a coup d'etat. It's just that the military is siding with the National Assembly. The only way for this to consittutionally resolve is Yoon recognises it as well as the army.
Wasp is hiring a framework engineer to build Laravel for JS | Remote (US East Coast / EU)

We are Matija and Martin, founders of Wasp (https://wasp-lang.dev/) and twin brothers. We’re building a Rails/Laravel-like full-stack framework that is designed to be stack and architecture-agnostic. Currently, we’re focusing on React, Node.js and Prisma.
Our secret sauce is a custom-built compiler at the heart of the framework, which “understands” how your app works across the whole stack - we’re relying a lot on code generation, and that gives us a lot of flexibility to do some pretty cool things [1] and cut down the boilerplate.

Since we launched Beta last year, we’ve seen quite strong community adoption [2] - Wasp has grown to ~14,000 stars on GitHub and is being used by indie hackers, startups, and Fortune 500 companies.

We’re currently a team of six - senior engineers (ex-Google/Palantir) + growth and a devrel. We raised our first round after graduating from YC in 2021 [3] and just recently closed another round (details will be public soon).

We are looking for a well-rounded engineer with substantial web dev experience who wants to be a part of a strong engineering/open-source culture and work on all aspects of the product with us - our custom compiler (in Haskell; but don’t worry about it [4]), frontend, backend, database/infra, deployment, CLI, ….

This is a remote position - for more details, take a look here: https://wasp-lang.notion.site/Framework-Engineer-at-Wasp-12a...

The problem here wasn't getting bit, it was not getting vaccinated. It took a month for symptoms to appear (which is typical) and at that point it's too late.

Growing up, it wasn't too uncommon for a bat to get stuck in the house. Mostly you can just open a door and it will find its way out. If not, it will get tired and you can bring it outside while it's asleep. If you get bit, you need to get vaccinated.

I agree with this. I'd be curious if you have any hypothesis about why exactly that is? Personally, I can think of three possible reasons but I'm not convinced by any of them:

1. It's became harder to distinguish quality. Artist training has been streamlined, so technical excellence (which is easier to evaluate) isn't novel anymore. So that means determining quality of art now depends on more difficult to evaluate criteria.

2. Art moves faster now, so it's harder to have an influence on the art world (one of the ways an artist becomes famous) posthumously, because by then the art world has probably moved on from the state where the art would have impact.

3. We're just better at discovering artists. E.g., low-barrier to entry for digital distribution means it's easier for artists to find an audience.

Any thoughts?
China just built their own space station and is racing the US to be the first to put boots back on the moon. Then there's the militarization of space and everything that's been going on there. The US wouldn't have its current moon plans and timeline if China wasn't also trying to put humans back there; it's all been timed to beat China by a year or so.

Inertia? I was a part time vSphere admin at an MSP 2015-2022 and the solution was overwhelmingly underwhelming, with lots of bugs, rough edges, and some of the worst APIs I've ever seen. There was almost no innovation in that time period, and they even managed to bungle an REST API (which was billed as some sort of revolution, in 2015/2016).
It wouldn’t have to scale, but I’m glad that it did. It’s likely that there’s been somewhat more innovation and economic growth in the world over the last ~decade than there would have been if YC stayed smaller.

The Museum's thin profit margin disappeared during the pandemic, and the Allen estate decided they could extract money selling off all of Paul's vintage computers, rather than take a few years of losses to keep these treasures available to the public.

Unless you were willing to donate your cash to the Allen family so that they could throw it on top of their Scrooge McDuck wealth pile, the museum was doomed. They weren't interested the actual cultural value of the collection.

With that said, keep a close eye on MoPop's collection should they ever run into any financial difficulty.

The hours you waste stumbling over your piled debris, picking, washing, storing, re-storing, those are hours and spaces that you will never get back in a mortal lifetime. Basically, you have to curate these goods: heat them, cool them, protect them from humidity and vermin. Every moment you devote to them is lost to your children, your friends, your society, yourself.

Allen's decision was to require those people who care to pony up millions of their own dollars to acquire his personal collection, and keep it running. I'm glad you volunteer your time, but that's a whole other magnitude than purchasing and running a multi-million-dollar business. It's not reasonable to expect volunteers to spring up from nowhere and perform that kind of labor.

We "just" need to flip the narrative. Let's stop talking about "services" that people need to pay for and make FOSS something that people invest so they can (collectively) own later.

People love to shit on crypto, but no other industry got so many small-scale, open source projects that got funded when people have high hopes of making bank from it.

I wonder if we could get people to invest in open source projects that were tied to a short position on the proprietary counterpart.

Neither of those examples apply to or impact the bulk of HTMX projects. I've worked on a bunch of these and have never seen `makeFragment` used in the wild. The `hx-on` attribute is similarly rare — I've only used it twice myself and it took longer to open my IDE than to update those to the new syntax.

> So your brain must've just ignored the code diffs above when responding, because it likes htmlx so much.

It's less about whether someone likes HTMX or not and more has to do with none of those points in the upgrade guide being relevant to, or impacting, the author or most other people.

> It is conserved, except at cosmological scales

That's incorrect. Energy conservation can be violated at a much smaller scale, e.g. when gravitational waves are involved, or redshift phenomena (e.g. in Schwarzschild).

Yes, we usually talk about the fact that gravitational waves can carry energy but what exactly is their energy content? And what exactly is the conservation equation here?

> Locally GR conserves energy the same as any other self-consistent physical theory.

Locally, you can write down a divergence equation for the energy momentum tensor, yes. However, locally we're in Minkowski space anyway, so that is not really surprising.

The point is that the local divergence equation doesn't take into account the energy carried by the gravitational field itself. To give another example beyond gravitational waves: A Schwarzschild black hole carries mass, even though it is a vacuum solution to the Einstein field equations.

What I like about Astro is the same as you, but coming from the opposite side. Day job is writing interactive web apps in react. When making some more static web pages on the side, it feels too much to use react and go the SPA route, especially if it should just be fast and easy to load, and friendly for search engine to crawl. But writing plain html&js makes me miss components for all the reusable parts, or whenever I want some small interactivity (like wanting to add a filter to a large list) it's nice to use what I know, and render it during build time, but possibly ship the components themselves to the browser for interactivity.
Yes, we do maintenance contracts and anything react is really costly to keep up to date.

Someone's not privy to how fast China is progressing nowadays. Americans are so ignorant on Chinese technological prowess right now. Chinese EVs are dominating every market in the world aside from US which has basically banned it essentially, otherwise we'd have very affordable cars in America. America banned DJI drones which owns about 70-80% of the world market on drones. China recently unleashed an open source AI model (and this is with limited funding and compute because they put a ban on exports of US and Taiwan chips) that rivals openai o1 with a fraction of funding. Not to mention how China has always had the lead on manufacturing automation and robots.

Man Americans are oblivious to how fast China is progressing.

They have a feature called ALIAS records, which is a non-standard DNS record type similar to CNAME, but it works with the root domain. The people I know using DNSimple were using it because it worked better with Heroku than other DNS providers at the time. They are not the only ones offering ALIAS records now, but it's still a non-standard feature that not every DNS provider has. A feature like this is needed for Heroku, since they do not give you IP addresses for your servers - you have to use CNAME or ALIAS records.
Sure, but that's not the argument that was being made. This is just generically: VC works by power laws so larger portfolios are generally preferable to smaller ones.

You are simply wrong for anything other than human rated flight. They didn't have the kind of PR that NASA and Space X have, and they were never human rated, but private satellites never stopped flying on Atlas, Delta, and Titan programs that variously went from the 1960s all the way up until the 2020s. All three of those rocket programs are direct descendants of ICBM programs.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_orbital_launcher...

I disagree with the premise that it was lack of bombing of US infrastructure related though. Space programs are very simply the public output of ICBM programs. Most of the modern day is simply a direct descendant of ICBM programs. You like distributed and reliable communication networks like the internet? Built so ICBM silos could command each other even if certain hubs were nuked. You like the miniaturization of solid state electronics? That capability was paid for entirely by the US Air Force who wanted powerful computers under 100 pounds for advanced planes and precision ICBMs. Satellite navigation was also explicitly invented for nuclear missiles fired out of submarines to have an accurate fix for guidance purposes.

Basically the entirety of the modern world exists because the US of the cold war pumped trillions of dollars into producing ICBMs and planes that were genuinely "next gen" while every single private business takes the credit for stuff they never paid for. Computer and telecommunications companies would never have built this stuff on their own: They were fine with computers taking up an entire facility that they could rent out (cf modern clouds) and fully switched networks that were reliant on a big company to manage. None of them needed to sell you a "personal computer". None of them wanted a distributed, uncontrolled network like the Internet.
