“Design token” is an accepted and widely used term (see Amazon’s Style Dictionary, Adobe’s Spectrum, etc.) that might even be standardized[0] by W3C at some point soon. Unlike “design element”, it refers to a more general concept; there is less confusion when you refer to a color, or to a measure, as “token” rather than “element”.

(The term “variable” may be more fitting, but it is on the other hand too generic and conflicting with a different idea in implementation domain: CSS or JS variables can mean the same thing, but not always.)

"A deal too good to be true" will reveal it's ugly head in this case. Insurance wants to cover a near sure thing. You can trick buyers into buying something uninsurable, once. And then they'll be forced to sell at a large loss. Once those stories start making it into media buyers will be far more cautious.

Most likely, these houses will get bought by corporations to be rented out. They'll have the resources to self-insure. And at the next natural disaster the building falls down, renters are homeless, and what gets built in it's place will be 2x the price.
Say that experiment is correct. Wouldn't that imply that the information context of a single letter varies based on the possible future permutations?

I.e., The string "I'v_" provides way more context than "con_" because you're much more likely to get I'm typing "I've" instead of "contraception"

That seems to disprove the idea that a letter is a bit.

Also the fact that there are more than two letters also indicate more than one bit, though I wouldn't want to even start to guess the encoding scheme of the brain
Yeah, right, and calling the head of state that gave the most weapons in the EU "offended liver sausage" was a smart diplomatic move.

Some of that is insightful, though I find the conclusion your own deception. The infrastructure of democracy was designed and configured by the capable. Living systems being generational, we have progressed now beyond centuries upon this platform. What exhibits today, under scrutiny, is that (firstly) those passing contemporary standards of education are not psycho-emotionally superior (as opposed to those taking it very seriously.) Also, today’s implementation is abstracted so far that sillystring and lies keep it all held together. “Too big to fail, it lumbers on at the expense of the lives of others.”

I do not blame the meager political selection, I blame the apatite and base lack of integrity among Americans. The apathy and conceit that they can live a life of distracted nonsense and then “decide” based on their thoughts feelings and beliefs when the time comes. It is complicated, demand more!

I wouldn’t wish notoriety upon anyone I care for btw, few can be as cruel and devastating as the apatite of that mob, whoever is ruling them. I know everyone thinks their neighbors are nice these days, yet there remains submerged ill wills among us.

The curriculum should certainly contain chapters of the corruptibility if not incompetence of ordinary persons.
Monads aren't weird. Basically it's data structures you can map over and flatten, like a list or a maybe/result/option. Everyone who isn't extremely junior knows about them. There's some theory that ties into formal systems and blah blah blah, but you sure don't need to be janking your monoid in public to understand and use monads.

As for tooling, few people actually want immersive, robust tooling. If that was popular things like Pharo and Allegro wouldn't be niche. Most want crude text editing with pretty colours and not much more.

> insurers can insure them again because they are cheap

I believe the main part of what the insurance payout covers is rebuilding. And rebuilding is what's expensive, moreso now than ever. So I think housing prices would crash in an uninsurable area because you might be able to buy cheaply, but you couldn't afford to rebuild when something happens.

In the end, we'll all be climate refugees?

I have been seeing this pattern repeated over and over since I started using Go in 2014 where people think they should be “building my favorite missing feature” — whether that’s futures, generics, structural processes, OTP, version managers, package managers, or now apparently exceptions. I always get the sense that the authors think they’ve done something cool and helpful when in the first place if they had simply put more effort into comprehending the simple “Go way” it wouldn’t have been necessary at all, and the needed functionality would have fallen out of the design.

Oh, I forgot about another aspect of Schemio. You can make use of scripts and functions using SchemioScript language. Not sure if that is going to be helpful for your case, but you can take a look at this demo: https://schem.io/projects/schemio-demo-2tABbv50x2tGRHpS/docs...

If you go to edit mode and select the "Ball" object (in the top hiearchy), then go to behavior panel, you will find that it has a "script" action in the "Play" event. You can take a look at how I implemented that scene and perhaps get some insights for yourself.

Also I had a small section about SchemioScript in this article: https://medium.com/@ivan.ishubin/interactive-diagrams-for-co...

I use it when I need to build complex templates or interactive learning demonstrations like on Brilliant. For example a friend of mine is preparing similar interactive demos with Schemio for kids at school.

Another thing that Schemio has is the concept of classes, functions and arguments bindings. Unfortunately I did not have a chance to write an article or prepare a video for this. But the idea is that you can prepare a class, with complex behavior and even its own configurable arguments, and then you can select any object on the scene and specify that it uses that class. Again, I don't know your exact situation, but just laying out the options
Thanks. That makes sense, even if my old-school brain finds the term less than optimal.

I would too I think, if I lived in the US. But the culture around law in Poland is pretty much opposite of the US. People just aren't lawsuit-happy, probably partially because the courts are inefficient and you can wait a long time for a verdict, and partially because the courts often don't award that much in those verdicts (and those absurd multi-million verdicts for trivial things that are a thing in the US would never happen here). Here, I've never heard of a software contractor even being sued by a client, let alone lose and have to pay anything - and I've been in the game for 20 years. First time I hear it does happen, I'll reconsider getting a better policy.

The requirement for the policy some clients have are only there because they're multinationals and it's a company-wide policy. Local clients never expect contractors to have a policy.

This makes sense to me, but it seems to contrary to the current utility-based css wave. For example 'text-red-100' for error message text wouldn't be in style dictionary like that, it would be 'text-color-error' since using 'text-red-100' would always be red 100 and not able to change the text-yellow-500.

Point being isn't that a route back to semantic styling? I much prefer the maintainability cycles of semantic styling over the onslaught of classes in i.e. tailwind.
Cool, but error.Is what? In my case would both come as a os.NotExist errors because both are files on the disk.

I think that the original dismissal I replied to, might not have taken into account some of the complexities that OP most likely has given thought to and made decisions accordingly. Among those there's the need to extract or append the additional information OP seems to require (request id, tracking information, etc). Maybe it can be done all at the top level, but maybe not, maybe some come from deeper in the stack and need to be passed upwards.
You misunderstand battery specs. It's a 13 string (more commonly, 13s) battery- a string is a number of cells wired in series. By convention that's a 48 volt battery, which matches with the 54 volt charger. In total that's a 421 watt-hour battery, for an average power of ~210 watts over 2 hours.

When you connect 2 9000 mAh cells in series, the resulting battery has 2x the voltage but the same mAh capacity. In parallel, the battery has the same voltage but 2x the mAh.

> My expectation on timescale is that genuinely general-purpose robots will need at least as much compute as a self-driving car (possibly more, that's a minimum), and have at most 1/10th the available power to do that (because they're physically smaller).

This seems logically flawed:

1. A car travels hundreds of miles from home. Why would a robot walk more than a while from a transport or home base? At short distances, if you truly need that power, it probably makes more sense to stream data/video over a direct low-latency connection. Long distance networking has a latency comparable to camera frame time, but even a normal wifi router can keep a lower latency than human nerve delay.

2. Humanoid robots will never be running at 85 mph past a bunch of people. They probably don't need to have the same compute throughput as a car, and definitely don't need to have the same reaction time.

I work on one of the largest Haskell codebases in the world that I know of (https://mercury.com/). We're in the ballpark of 1.5 million lines of proprietary code built and deployed as effectively a single executable, and of course if you included open source libraries and stuff that we have built or depend on, it would be larger.

I can't really speak to your problem domain, but I feel like we do a lot with what we have. Most of our pain comes from compile times / linking taking longer than we'd prefer, but we invest a lot of energy and money improving that in a way that benefits the whole Haskell ecosystem.

Not sure what abstractions you are wondering about, though.
I really like the idea of comparing languages in a real-ish scenario of development, written by independent expert-in-language developers! As a web dev, I'm particularly interested in the idea of this for comparing the various web frameworks (including "no framework").

Some thoughts on the experiment:

- To get a better idea of the impact of the language on authors' thought processes, it'd probably have to include submissions from more authors in each language. With just one (or so) submission per language, I could see there being variation in expertise.

- I'm curious to see what the documentation looks like here, that there's so much written in some of the submissions, and that the paper authors value it so highly. Is it used to explain what the code does, indicating potentially too-complex code, or is it explaining whys?

- In the "Lessons Learned" section, it's mentioned that other reviewers were not as impressed with Haskell. I'm curious if their reactions were included in the evaluation - to me, these reactions would reduce the success for the understandability (and learnability?) criterion. The paper authors seem to have written this off as "If functional languages are to become more widely used, various sociological and psychological barriers must be overcome".
Small islands/hillocks are even better.
Sax style parsing is a godsend when dealing with large files, regardless of json or xml. It's indeed what made me switch to a different json library in a Ruby project of mine (I'd have to look it up, but probably to oj).
Home prices are too high to insure. This is for many many reasons.

As an old-school designer, I didn’t like the term at first, but to be honest it is winning me.

I was taught design in terms of design models and design systems, so there was not much of a leap to “design token” as referring to a building block.

I am not 100% sure how I feel about it in general. If I was a designer who was only given freedom to operate within a set of tokens, I would certainly feel like my hands are tied. At the same time, I can see how even while using tokens it is entirely possible to design a bad interface. However, I also see value of them when it comes to maintaining consistent and intuitive UIs.
How do you feel about the denialist argument that since people still buy expensive waterfront property, climate change is not a big deal?

My interpretations would probably be some combination of

- information asymmetry leading to demand distorting upward

- the people who are buying the property have priced in the loss relative to their utility and will be relatively unaffected should they be left holding the watery bag

You think you understand, but you don't.

I made a convincing, well-cited argument as to the prevalence of police and government abuse of existing surveillance tools across multiple US cities, and established that NYC has an authoritarian government. I linked to pieces from prominent organizations specifically dealing with chilling effects and ALPRs, which can be used as the basis for further research. I linked to a Supreme Court ruling in which a judge specifically mentioned how surveillance causes a chilling effect and a reduction in freedom of expression.

You are unwilling to accept any of this and also unwilling to do your own research. You mistake a well-rounded argument for gish gallop. You're looking for "logic" and not "rhetoric", but those are such vague, moving targets. These are all references which I provided you on short notice due to your own refusal to research the subject. These are not the pieces which "swayed" me. I have been reading deeply about this subject for decades and I cannot possibly be bothered to compile an extensive list of books and articles which you will probably discount and not read, I cannot simply transmit my knowledge to you. At some point you have to do the work yourself and connect the dots, if you have a specific form of evidence you are looking for, spend some time looking for it.

It's honestly a given that mass surveillance creates a chilling effect and erosion of trust, and the onus should really be on you to disprove it.

Is there any evidence for that claim aside from it being an oft-repeated tale on the internet? Mathematically it can't possibly work, because you're spending $80k (or whatever) on an employee that might spend $30k on a car every 5 years, so paying $80k/year to get $6k/year in revenue. It's actually worse than that, because Ford only makes around 15% gross margin, so at best that's $900 of money you get back for spending $80k on an employee. That's so low that Even if you account for money multiplier effects, it's unlikely you'll get anywhere near break even.
What big prize? Having way more money than I know what to do with? I genuinely don't get what the reward even means to me as a human here

"In contrast, central processing appears to be strictly serial: When faced with two tasks in competition, individuals consistently encounter a “psychological refractory period” before being able to perform the second task broadbent_perception_1958, pashler_dual-task_1994. Even in tasks that do not require any motor output, such as thinking, we can pursue only one strand at a time."

Clearly they're not talking about "neuronal transmission", but tasks, and further more, they cite their sources.
The rest is history is pretty good.

If that many people are willing to risk their lives and their freedom to save money on an Uber, it's not hard to believe that millions of people would be happy to buy beautiful waterfront property.

The risks are known but not totally apparent.
