I covered that. Sure, Stylo and WebRender were successful enough that they made it into Firefox, but the Layout component was very much not. Servo was in the middle of a clean-slate rewrite of the layout component because the initial architecture chosen in 2013 wasn't very good.

The CSS engine and rendering engine are a lot easier to swap out than the remaining parts.

Again, I get why people like Servo, but "in 10 years, maybe we'll be able to take on Electron" isn't that great of a value proposition for a huge R&D project by a company already struggling to remain relevant with their core projects.
So I presume your complaint is that by synthesis you mean taking two things, smashing them together, and producing a new thing. In which case, sure, subtractive synthesis isn't synthesis unless:

- Two oscillators undergoing detune, sync, ring or amplitude modulation, or fm prior to getting fed into the filter?

- An LFO combined with an oscillator?

- An envelope (controlling the filter or amplifier) combined with an oscillator?

Perhaps these things might be considered combinations? I agree this is weak. You can blame the RCA Mark I and II for calling subtractive synthesizers "synthesizers".

No cuts are necessary for minimum-weight bipartite matching as the constraint matrix is totally unimodular. Total unimodularity guarantees that any optimal basic solution is an integer solution.

Moreover, well-known algorithms for linear programming like simplex and primal-dual methods have straightforward (and illuminating!) combinatorial interpretations when restricted to minimum-weight bipartite matching.

Yes mate. In my 20+ years of riding dh I've never broken a collar bone, let alone my spine. I put this down to learning to fall properly doing breakfall drills in jujitsu. Side fall, and diving front roll being the main falls used in mtb. Side fall involves not putting hand out and distributing impact across whole side; good for loss of traction fall on corners, skidding out sideways. Diving front roll like a commando roll for going out front over the bars.

Good point! I've seen this search link setup before and it was... somewhat palatable. Still more bad than good but at least better UX.
IANAL as well. but I have to say, if typing into typing Google into the Bing search and getting a page that looks almost exactly like Google can't be proven as intent to deceive, then the law is broken.

I can't imagine anything clearer to prove intent than a user requesting that they want to go to Google to Bing, Bing responds to that request by showing them a page that looks like Google's. That is so clear. Is that really not able to be proven in court?

MATH 217 was one of my favorites! Ive heard that the math department can be a little unenthusiastic about the non-major courses, but overall it’s a really welcoming place in my experience.
I live in the UK where we people point at the rest of Europe and say "why are our prices so high here when we have 50+% of our power coming from wind".

> The high consumer prices for electricity in Germany are a result of grid fees

Grid fees are a coverall for "making sure the whole thing runs", which in my mind covers "making sure there's gas (at least that's what we use in the UK) to cover the shortfall when it's not windy". The Gas stations need to be able to spin up to handle the demand, so it's an abritrage where you really want to maximise the amount of wind you use, while paying as little overhead to keep the gas ready to go. It's like being on-call, and having your on-call pay amortized into your regular pay.
Ah right, because calling it a product feature suddenly makes the assessment of it objective and non-political
My thought is: This introduces latency that is not required (40ms could be a lot IMO depending on the use.) It's not required because you don't need latency on the first high/low signal; you only need to block subsequent ones in the bounce period; no reason to add latency to the initial push.

Also, (Again, depends on the use), there is a good chance you're handling button pushes using interrupts regardless of debouncing.
After the dot-com crash, I was laid off when the company I worked for went under. They specialized in creating e-learning courses for large corporations.

That experience taught me a valuable lesson: there are some industries you just don’t want to be involved with when the economy takes a downturn. Companies tighten their budgets, and the first cuts often come from areas like training and marketing. On the consumer side, people quickly drop non-essential luxuries like streaming services or food delivery.

If you work in industries that provide those kinds of services, they’re essentially “fair weather industries”—great during good times but highly vulnerable during tough ones.

Since then, I’ve made a point of only working in what I call “recession-proof” verticals. These include energy (avoiding risky sectors), insurance (because companies rarely skip paying premiums), and certain areas of banking (where money flows abundantly).

Another critical strategy is diversifying your skill set and building a strong internal network within your company. The more indispensable you become, the more secure your position. In more technical terms, this is akin to “obligate mutualistic symbiosis”—a relationship where both parties thrive because they rely on each other.
I don't see how this could be possible. If I have some information which I can use to prove that you were the sender, then I can just share the same information with a third party, and they can verify just the same.

They have to export cheap energy because they so often overproduce, but also have to import when they don't.

From my Swiss perspective, I am incredibly pissed that our political class in the 90s and early 2000s simply adopted the attitude that 'we can of course always import cheap energy from Germany or France' we don't need to do anything by ourself.

Building a single large new nuclear reactor between 90-2010 would have made us a major profitable exporter of energy instead of an importer. And with our large hydro storage we can even store extra baseload produced at night and sell it during peak.

This lines up well with my experience. I’ve tried coming at things from the IDE and chat side, and I think we need to merge tooling more to find the sweet spot. Claude is amazing at building small SPAs, and then you hit the context window cutoff and can’t do anything except copy your file out. I suspect IDEs will figure this out before Claude/ChatGPT learn to be good enough at the things folks need from IDEs. But long-term, i suppose you don’t want to have to drop down to code at all and so the constraints of chat might force the exploration of the new paradigm more aggressively.

Hot take of the day, I think making tests and refactors easier is going to be revolutionary for code quality.

Show HN: I wrote an open-source UI for controlling the Browser with Agents
Hey HN,

we are Magnus and Gregor, creators of Browser Use. We recently introduced UI on top so anyone can control the browser with a super simple UI.

Would love to hear your thoughts down below.
HN ostensibly tries to have thoughtful, engaged conversations. LLM grammatical cleanups and translations are absolutely fair game. The comment has certain hallmarks (broad, sweeping summary, certain word choices, ...) suggesting that an LLM had more creative liberty than HN really likes to see -- in sort of an Uncanny Valley situation, it's hard to tell if the LLM produced the post or if a person did (plus, somebody apparently went digging and didn't see a lot of value in your other comments while also finding self-endorsements, which paints this one in a worse light).

You might have better luck with prompts that try to adhere better to your intent:

> English is not my first language. Please correct the spelling/grammar and perhaps teach me up to one idiom that would fit well in the following comment, but leave the meat of the message largely the same.

> Please translate the following [franglish/spanglish/(English mixed with a few words from your native language as appropriate to better convey your point)] to English suitable for a forum post.

that may be what "mandatory charges" means to you, but it's not what it means in economic data.

mandatory charges are "mandatory" in the sense you are "mandated" by the gov to pay them; besides taxes these include social security contributions (some countries have more such "contributions"). The are no mandates (laws, regulations) that require you to pay for housing, food, education, etc.

The article nicely explains how to build a minimalist OS — works great as an intro material. I think understanding basic OS concepts is essential for performance tuning and debugging.
OP has identified a universal norm: "Law of Large Established Codebases (LLEC)" states that "Single-digit million lines of code, Somewhere between 100 and 1000 engineers, first working version of the codebase is at least ten years old" tend to naturally dissipate, increasing the entropy of the system, inconsistency being one of characteristics.

OP also states that in order to 'successfully' split a LEC you need to first understand it. He doesn't define what 'understanding the codebase' means but if you're 'fluent' enough you can be successful. My team is very fluent in successfully deploying our microfrontend without 'understanding' the monstrolith of the application.

I would even go out and make the law a bit more general: any codebase will be both in a consistent and inconsistent state. If you use a framework, library, or go vanilla, the consistency would be the boilerplate, autogenerated code, and conventional patterns of the framework/library/programming language. But inconsistency naturally crops up because not all libraries follow the same patterns, not all devs understand the conventional patterns, and frameworks don't cover all use cases (entropy increases after all). Point being, being consistent is how we 'fight' against entropy, and inconsistency is a manifestation of increasing entropy. But there is nothing that states that all 'consistent' methods are the same, just that consistency exists and can be identified but not that the identified consistency is the same 'consistency'. And taking a snapshot of the whole you will always find consistent & inconsistent coexisting

> What has value is no emissions that kill people, and no CO2

Neither of them can be reached with coal/gas/other fossil fuels. In addition, having 100% renewables means that you have an entire society ready for it - from infra to consumers.

So, no, that's for me in no way an implementation detail like "I am just swapping A with B" otherwise I am pretty damn sure we could stop everything we're doing and mount solar panels everywhere to reach 100% renewables.

In principle I understand what you were trying to say, but I don't agree on the premise that they are just an implementation detail.

I haven't been to a club in a long time, but I am quite confident that if there's a hell for me, it's being forced to be in a club+rave for eternity.

I've never done any kind of "party drug" [1], and I think that party drugs have to be a requirement for me to enjoy something like that (at least for someone as awkward as me). Repetitive music that's so loud it hurts, not being able to talk to people, close contact to strangers of questionable hygiene; it's hard for me to even imagine how anyone could enjoy it.

I suspect that there are a lot of people like me who are finally being honest with themselves and acknowledging that they don't actually enjoy the entire club scene. Obviously if you like it, don't let me take it away from you, but one of the best parts of reaching age 30 for me was that no one expects or wants me to go to a club with them now.

Yeah no wonder you don't like raves. You might be the first person who went to one without taking drugs. Same for clubs tbh. That kind of music is made by people on particular drugs and it's meant to be listened to by people on those same drugs. And dancing is just a way to shake off the stimulants.
