You mentioned specifically restrictions on lunch. Do you just mean that there are more office workers eating lunch because it is during the day? Or were the vaccine passport rules different depending on what meal or time of day?
At some point, you need to learn how to do things that are hard, or unpleasant, or just downright boring. Not everything can be a MrBeast video, that just isn't how life works. We're raising kids who can't just sit with their own thoughts; they need constant stimulation. But guess what? Long division isn't stimulating. Taxes aren't stimulating. Cleaning the kitchen isn't stimulating. But you need to do those things anyway.

I find it hard to believe that it's mere coincidence that everything fell apart right after we invented these perfect little surveillance Skinner boxes, and then put overpriced Markov chains in them and unleashed them on children.
It says right there:

> htmx supports the hx-confirm attribute to provide a simple mechanism for confirming a user action. This uses the default confirm() function in javascript which, while trusty, may not be consistent with your applications UX....In this example we will see how to use sweetalert2 to implement a custom confirmation dialog.

It's implementing a custom confirmation dialog. Customized, non-default UI/UX usually means custom-written code in any framework I'm aware of. Maybe React has implemented magical customizations since the last time I checked.
The branding of congestion pricing has been so disastrous.

It could have been separated into two very normal things: tolls and parking fees. Every city has those. NYC could have played with those knobs until they got mostly the same effect but there would have never been any nonsense about it being illegal or unconstitutional or whatever car advocates are saying.

Even if this works, it will always be hated and fought by a large minority.
Shareholders (whom many people believe have primacy in corporate decisions) are frequently international/foreign.

If you can be laid off to appease foreign interests, what’s the difference in letting foreign interests buy unlimited ads?

America has already decided (Citizens United) that unlimited money can be used by citizens to drown out the speech of their compatriots. The Supreme Court justices can take bribes, gifts and vacations paid for by billionaires, and you can be laid off to appease the foreign shareholders.

Why not let them have infinite ad spend? We can just say that the marketplace of ideas is a literal marketplace. Foreign companies can buy land and use up all the ground water; parch the land dry.

We’ll just tell people it’s a “free market” and they’ll eat it up. Hell, we allow tens of thousand of Americans to die every year to prop up insurance profits; kickbacks for private prisons. The next DLC will be “war for profit”!

Why not stop pretending and just put a “For Sale” sign on everything? At least then we could stop pretending.
I'm not an expert in licenses, but my understanding is that if someone makes a contribution under one license, then any program including that code needs to obey the terms of that license. The CLA allows them to choose any license (well, depending on the specifics of the CLA) they would like to distribute that code under in the future (although they'd likely need to continue to make available past source to meet the terms of previously released versions.

So if I make a contribution under some very restrictive license, but sign a CLA allowing relicensing, all bets for the future are off.

We don't bill htmx as a replacement for React or Next, only for the use cases that make sense for its capabilities, which often happen to be things people are using React and Next for because that's all they know.

Do you know what it means to be rich? Serious question.

It's not "having a lot of money". It's actually "having a lot of options".

By definition, rich people will have more ways to get around than poor people. The rich can hire a limo, hop in a helicopter, and even take a trip to space.

Is it a social injustice that not everyone can afford a limo, helicopter, or spaceship?

I do not think it's bad to take steps to make driving an activity for richer people, to make it a luxury that it initially was when cars were invented.

On the flip side of things, look at what the dream of mass-market affordable cars, free highways, and free parking have done to society: Swathes of land wasted for parking, low density cities that kill walking/cycling/transit, millions of people dying in car crashes, endless congestion and lane-widening.
I remember one RPG (possibly one of the Exile or Avernum games?) that said something to the effect of "it's not actually, like, a bunch of gold coins, it's an abstraction for valuable and easily portable trade goods". Which is a fitting explanation in a lot of games, really.
Good bet it's 4nm. The 5090 doesn't seem that much greater than the 4090 in terms of raw performance. And it has a big TDP bump to provide that performance.
I have a similar approach, but the mess can be contained by asking for optimizations and refactors very frequently and only asking for very granular features.
I'm guessing it's N4 and the performance is coming from larger dies and higher power.
An easy tell is walking up to a painting or even looking at the pillars you see from your starting position: you'll notice that the vertical lines aren't perfectly perpendicular to the horizontal lines in screen space, because the camera is pointed slightly upwards. In Doom, walls are rendered as strips of screen columns, and the pitch of the camera angle looks like it's perfectly parallel to the horizontal plane as a result.

You can sort of implement looking up and down with minor modifications to the Doom engine, and this was implemented in Heretic, but because of the nature of the renderer, vertical lines in the world remain vertical lines in screen space even when you pitch the camera, so it looks somewhat distorted in a way that's very characteristic of the post-Doom "2.5D" engines.

- "...We took hundreds of soil samples from both sites for chemical analyses, creating high-resolution maps of heavy metal presence in the region. We found that pollution levels at the Timna copper mining sites are extremely low and confined to the locations of the ancient smelting furnaces. [...] The new study contradicts a series of papers published since the 1990s about pollution caused allegedly by the ancient copper industry."

Sure, except the author is an IC, so by definition it's not from middle management.

As a middle manager myself though, I understand why you jumped to that conclusion. Because this is an example of highly efficient behavior in a system of imperfect humans, which all large teams are. Typically in a large cross-functional teams, engineers are not incentivized to question product requirements because it's not technically their job. But in practice, engineers closest to the problem are best positioned to recognize requirement flaws and directly contribute to better solutions. When I got my start in web development this was just the norm because no one understood the web yet, so both traditional designers as well as human-computer interaction specialists were out of their depth, and product manager wasn't a career path that people could go into to make big bucks without any technical knowledge the way it became after the web and mobile revolutions went mainstream and tech became the new finance for the blindly ambitious.

Internal policies at these companies are rarely subject to a level of faith that you're implying. Instead external access to systems is logged, internal systems are often sandboxed or otherwise constrained in how you interact with them, and anything that looks like exfiltration sets off enough alarms to have your manager talking to you that same day, if not that same hour.

The difference to me is how that is applied. For most cars, including performance vehicles, you can minimize the impact of this by waiting until the car is warmed up, using the correct oil weight and changing it regularly, changing the air filter, etc. With an electric vehicle the wear seems more integral to the usage of it compared to an ICE.
We appear to have very different definitions of "well-designed cities".

Cars are the least efficient form of mass transit yet devised. They take up inordinate amounts of space to move very few people. This creates unavoidable congestion problems at very realistic levels of urban density, problems which are only solvable by enabling people to use viable alternatives.

This is why the subway and buses in Manhattan move 5x and 2x more people respectively per day than cars.

IQs aren't changing much

Isn't IQ a comparative representation of one's standing within their contemporary age group?

My understanding is that within a given group the median should be 100. So you won't see it change between groups. This is highly relevant when you're talking about different groups being exposed to different concentrations of lead.

As an extreme example to make the point, if people born in 1970 were all exposed to high concentrations of lead and were all morons as a result, their median IQ is still 100.

Then people born in 2000 are exposed to far less lead and are super smart, but their median IQ would still be 100.

Points above or below 100 are merely a specification of how many fractions of a standard deviation above or below that median within the given age group a person's performance is measured to be.

That said, even within a group, 2.5 - 3 points seems largely insignificant as an individual's score might vary more than this depending on which day of the week they took the test. It seems a big stretch to draw any scientific conclusion from such a small variance.
> The relative link bugs are [0] and [1],

Thanks. Genuinely asking something here: are relative links actually common in frontend? I've only ever used absolute URLs for static assets. Actually I even made tooling that ensures that static asset paths will always be correct: https://yawaramin.github.io/dream-html/dream-html/Dream_html...

Of course, this kind of tooling exists for many frameworks. But I've never seen frontend frameworks suggest using relative links for static assets, they always seem to put them in a separate subdirectory tree.

First of all, ADHD is often co-ocurring with other things, like autism.

Second, medicine is helpful, but it's not a panacea. Also, two common ADHD medicines in the US face FDA-imposed shortages, so prepare for many calls to the pharmacy.

Also, ADHD is not just hyperactivity and attention--it impacts emotional regulation, impulse control, task initiation, time management, and other things related to executive functioning.

Finally, ADHD isn't bad. I like to think of it as an insanely strong, overenthusiastic hippopotamus--if you work with it and get to know it better, you will be able to have a hippopotamus friend, which sounds handy, but there's always the risk of it getting a little too excited and breaking stuff.

Comic book level villainy. I like the guy!
I guess what I'm not getting here is this: the rage about the "everyone that went too far" doesn't seem to have extended to the people who actually did that. By which I mean our provincial governments, with their ad hoc dubious and last minute irrational responses. Specifically, Doug Ford who seems to have suffered not a bit in terms of support but enacted the most draconian of COVID restrictions and lockdowns, all at the last minute and after numbers were skyrocketing, not before...

Meanwhile Trudeau did what... airports and borders. The feds influence here was not high. ArriveCAN was a debacle, obviously. But the trucker thing was US initiated.

I don't think there's anything the feds could have done to head this off. They couldn't make the trucker vax thing not happen, not with Biden insisting on it. They had no control over what was happening in workplaces and schools across the country. Their biggest fault, I think, was being weak -- which the opposition took advantage of to create mayhem and try to bring the govt down.

That the people organizing the protest were in part former oil industry lobbyists and had previously been involved in climate change denying anti-carbon tax protests should also make one pause about what the motivations might be and where the money might be coming from, as well?

Regardless, I think we agree: by January with Omicron showing that it would transmit like crazy regardless of vaccine, mandates everywhere should have been dropped.
