It is always important to remember that the National Electric Code isn't national.

It is up to the states or other (more-local) AHJs to adopt it (or not). And many simply have not done so.

For example: A person building a single-family home in Meigs County, Ohio, has no electrical code to follow, nor any electrical permits to pull, nor any government inspections of any electrical work. (Lacking code, there's no standard by which to permit nor to inspect the work.)

I don't think most people care to be honest. Dive into enough small accounts on instagram sharing their entire life story and you start to have a different perception on the ethical quandries.

The quandry is that people feel insignifigant and don't care if a dozen strangers see their posts.

Eventual Consistency Is Tricky
Wondering whether this development will decrease the high level of arrogance that one encounters across developer teams (not always of course, but the tendency is evident). Yes, programming is much more than coding and not everything can be built or fixed by AI, at least yet. It's a sure thing we will get there, though. Would be phenomenal to not hear "we must first write a user story, do some grooming, evaluate the tools, then do more grooming, and talk even more before we start" in the future.

this may have even been pre-Google, so yes. You would have needed to create a youtube account, sign its TOS, and then press the corresponding options to upload a video to the internet.

Of course he's right. The influence of conveyor belt sushi specifically seems very dubious (isn't it just an unusual novelty?) but any social trend that has people meeting and talking to others less frequently will have people meeting potential partners less frequently. What is the advice always given to people looking for a partner? Go out and meet people. Meet as many people as you can to increase your odds. Any aspect of Japanese society that reinforces or facilitates social isolation has a share of the blame for their demographic problem.

Yeah, I think I'm going to take the author's advice and use Tree Calculus to generate JSON config files. That way I won't need to use a bloated tool with a JSON parser just to output configuration.
The HP48 has a pretty good keyboard. I remember someone who typed as fast as most people would do on a full keyboard, using some weird kind of touch typing with the hands vertically positioned on both sides of the calculator.

The problem is more about the software. The HP48 is pretty slow, and has a tendency to lose your data a bit too easily. There are some editors written in assembly that are good enough though, and since you had a GX, you could use memory card backups.
If you can express the DSL SPARQL query as a transformation to JSON Schema, you can have GPT give you the JSON predictably in strict mode, and then reverse the transformation.

I never understood people discussing JS and TS as different entities. TS is JS, but with types. But to be fair I can't imagine now using untyped JS without an LSP of some sort.
What a great font! Very matter-of-fact, but with some stylistic choices that give it just enough character to be interesting. The x-height in the original version is too large for setting body copy, but the variable font comes with an axis for the optical size, which allows tweaking the x-height individually.

Yeah, this is a one-direction dictionary for now.

You’re right that I didn’t write all the entries myself. The data comes from an existing dataset, but I had to do a lot of work to clean, sort, and trim it. The original was pretty bloated, and I wanted the dictionary to run fast.

Reverse-search is definitely possible, though. Parsing the entries to support that would make it much more useful. It’s something I’ve been thinking about, and your comment is a good reminder to prioritize it.

By the way, if you’re curious about the Myanmar language—or anything related—we should definitely connect. I’d love to exchange ideas!
Ahh very nice! Can't do that without accurate fingers, for sure.
This is a plea to use TypeScript instead of JS. Why not. Strong typing is certainly great. But the reason I don't use TypeScript isn't any of those listed: it's because it needs a compilation step, and I don't want that.

Thank you for this, way more digestible.

So if it's just an unlabeled tree (nodes hold no data) then the only information is the child order / count, correct? So part of it is somehow mapping some high level information to combination of nodes and children, and back (after some manipulation), correct? Or am I misunderstanding everything?
One of the people on vi Stackexchange site mostly answers questions from his phone. Glad it works for him, but just seems absolutely mental to me, especially when you have access to a decent machine.
Yes you missed something: He talked about L2, which is a general term for "layer 2" networks that work on top of the blockchain.

For example for Bitcoin there's the Lightning network as L2, where you do one transaction to open the channel, and one to close it, and channels can remain open for months. Payments are routed through a network of channels, so you only need one or a few channels to other nodes and can reach all nodes in the network.

The transactions are much cheaper in this network precisely because they're not on chain, but it's still secure because each L2 transaction leads to a signed (but not published) blockchain transaction that each party of the channel can choose to publish at any time (and close the channel).

There's a bit more to it, and I recommend anyone who isn't aware of L2 networks to look into it.

JSON Anonymizer
The author seems to ignore the fact that type hints are a thing even with plain JS. Serious question: does the author "just say no to Python" as well?

If lack of explicit typing is the issue, then his rant would apply to most scripting languages and to single out JS seems odd to me...

Actually, I don't think that example is a real one. Adobe has a full view of the same board too (https://stock.adobe.com/uk/images/split-flap-or-just-flap-di...), and at a closer look it seems very strange for an airport board. The flight numbers don't have airline codes, there are no direct flights, and the "vias" don't really make sense for any location I could think of (from Frankfurt via Oslo, from Moscow via Skopje, from Copenhagen via... Khartoum?!). There definitely are split-flap displays with whole words on the flaps, but for airports it doesn't really make sense because there are too many potential destinations.
Perhaps we should work on changing that.
My initial reaction was: Why?!

But fair play, I find it hard enough to program on a keyboard.
> it's because it needs a compilation step, and I don't want that

Why? The seconds it takes to compile even a large project are paid back a million fold everytime it catches a mistake you'd have missed or your IDE out you used the wrong type.

It's probably not listed in the article because it's a nonsensical argument.

I've spent some time living in Sweden and I think there's a number of important details here that are not sufficiently highlighted that can radically change how to interpret the results. Swedes have a tradition of eating candy once a week on Saturdays. It's incredibly common for them to not have candy all week, then go buy an assortment bag on Saturday, eat it all, and then not have any again for a week. We don't know how this affects health outcomes compared to say, having a bit of candy every day, the glycemic load profiles will be widely different and we don't know if that matters or not.

Fika, a coffee break with pastries, is a very strong cultural phenomenon. The pastries Swedes have are generally of very high quality and many of them also contain a considerable amount of fat, which as we know, helps buffer glycemic load. While it's mentioned in the study in passing, I think it should instead be one of the core focus points, it's hard to assess the effect of this as opposed to plain added sugar.

And lastly, Swedes are very outdoorsy people. On any day of the week, you can see people strolling on nature trails, of which there are plenty, and spending a lot of time active in general. I would not be surprised if a large part of the health outcomes we see in statistics can be attributed to variance in this.

So to summarize, while these results are interesting, I think there are too many hidden influences here that are not controlled for to really generalize these results in any way.

The author never actually says what is so wrong with JavaScript. I think it is quite a good dynamically typed language, and it certainly has some very high-performance implementations. If you don't like it, just use something else?

> Ultimately, JavaScript was the right thing at the right time. It ended up being folded, spindled, and mutilated to serve purposes that it isn’t well suited for

Counterpoint: many quirks in the language were addressed, e.g. introduction of === and with ESLint you get many of the practical advantages of a type checker. And when you need more safety, sprinkle TypeScript on top.

What I really want for Christmas is a TypeScript-to-native compiler.
Strong Code Ownership – By Adam Ard
I think this was his best article yet - it lays out all the various things that have been conflated under "debanking" - some justifiable, some less so.

I have no idea where Patio11 sits politically, but as someone who tends right I would say it was a fair description of political debanking (and social media deplatforming), if North America-focussed.

And I think it would be fair to characterise Patio11 as a crypto-sceptic.
Capitalists shape society beyond what they want too. They work to make optional technology mandatory. Don't tell me about shaping the world. Everyone does that, only they use lower-level mechanisms. Most others aren't doing just fine, though, and many probably would like a better world.

All people try and shape society: right, left, anarchists, greens, etc. There is nobody that does not.

Even with regular nokia phones people were disabling the t9 because it was faster to just type without predictive text.

What a great idea. Let parents hook it up to Gemini, who told users to eat glue and rocks. I’m sure wrong and harmful information won’t have any effect on autistic children, no siree, can’t see a single problem with that.

And before anyone has the followup brilliant idea of then putting the blame on parents for whatever LLM they choose, let me remind you that even on HN (ostensibly with a tech savvy crowd) a ton of people furiously defend LLMs. Non-tech users aren’t as equipped to make these choices.

Oh cool, his Bondi Language / Pattern Calculus was the first thing I thought of seeing this, so I guess I wasn't too far wrong.
That's a cool conceptual framework but like all conceptual frameworks it's meant as a simple, immediate rule of thumb, not a theory of how engineering management works.

In practice, the last three Ds depend heavily on familiarity with the first one, as they ultimately boil down to steering it at (team) scale. Without it, you're going to decide the wrong thing for what your team needs to do, delegate the wrong things to people who can't do them, and ultimately design an organisation that can't do shit.

Actually doing it isn't the only way to attain that sort of familiarity but for lots of people it's the only one that works. For them it's anything but the least important type of action a leader can do. Once they stop doing it at all, the clock of knowledge obsolescence starts ticking and all the other Ds atrite, as they inevitably end up deciding, delegating and designing based on yesterday's realities.
I am not sure this is a fair comparison. Wouldn't this be true if we compare any pre-industrial society with any post-industrial society?
I mean, it sounds weird, but it really isn't that crazy. I cannot claim I'm more or even equally productive on my phone compared to a proper desktop setup, but the thing is I'm basically glued to my phone, and sometimes I catch myself typing fucking essays on my phone being literally 1.5 m from my laptop for no reason, just because, I was scrolling stuff on my phone in the first place.
I do think this stuff would be better off at utility scale, but there's another kind of regulatory arbitrage going on there: some people will accept much lower safety standards in their own houses, while other people are keen to clobber anything with any sort of risk attached in the public sphere.

(climate change is of course not seen as a "risk" in the public sense, more of a "business as usual", because it's too diffuse for blame to attach)
> So you're saying violence is a morally acceptable way for a minority to force its will on a majority? This just sounds like an argument for dictatorship.

No, I think it's a much more subtle concept than just giving a binary yes or no. Definitely willing to discuss away from this forum though.

> I think whatever argument you make in favor of violence, you should anticipate that your political opponents will make the exact same argument to excuse their violence.

They (capitalists) already use violence to enforce their society.

I can see someone planning meticulously the murder, the immediate fleeing thereafter but not the rest. If I remember images, he wasn't wearing gloves so he may have had to clean it before he planned to get rid of it. Plus he may have hit hiccups in the process that may have derailed part of his plans. The fact he had cash both in local and foreign money probably means he had planned to move out of the country but was kind of waiting for the dust to settle.
Can you solve this in general without doing integer linear programming? How else would you know how to find the lowest index greater than the current? In the field GF(2), using 0 might not minimize.
Kudos for pointing out D compilers capabilities, I feel it is quite often left out in similar postings.

Using import std in VC++ gives me some hopes this will improve, however given the current mess of C++ compilers catching up to recent ISO C++ revisions, we are several years away from this to matter in portable code.

I'll happily use TypeScript for all my UI components, libraries and server code, most of the time with Bun thanks to its OOB support for TypeScript.

But for Web UIs I'll drop down to a #NoBuild "Simple, Modern JavaScript" [1] i.e. using JS Modules + JSDoc Type Annotations to avoid needing any npm modules/build steps/etc. I still benefit from a library's TypeScript definitions/VS Code intelli-sense/static analysis/etc but completely avoid any build/bundling complexity for the cost of a slightly more verbose syntax in JSDoc type hints.

I'd happily move to using ECMA Type Annotations proposal [2] if it ever got accepted, but alas TC39 moves slowly...

I don't see JavaScript as the webbrowsers assembly, and whilst it can be, don't agree that the web browser is the new operating system. These are the two predicates used to justify the author's argument to use typescript.
