> Utility frameworks like Tailwind are not design systems - they're just inline styles with better ergonomics. True design systems express visual harmony through mathematical relationships.

Yes, Tailwind is inline styling with much better ergonomics. Why is that not enough?

Yes, you may not end up with a coherent, harmonious design governed by mathematical relationships, but that's not an argument that the resulting product is not perfectly fine, nor is it an argument that your productivity is higher if you spend a bunch of time to learn how to define "visual harmony through mathematical relationships" as expressed in CSS, then go through the process of designing such a system that's suitable for your app before you even start building your components. The fact that you are typically developing your UI in concert with other features of your program is exactly why front-loading this design system effort probably results in wasted work as you rapidly iterate and evolve both. I think this is why Tailwind has become so popular, because it requires almost no front-loaded effort, and so iteration is rapid.

If you're not already persuaded by puritanical aesthetics around this stuff, then justifying this sort of front-loaded effort will probably be difficult. If it does turn out to be difficult, that probably means this approach will have a smaller niche than perhaps you're hoping for. Best of luck!
Yeah it could be broader for sure, would prefer it to be an allowlist rather than a blocklist, but the presence of a workaround doesn't make banning something pointless, and as the SC pointed out in their decision, a law does not need to solve all problems in one fell swoop in order for it to be valid.

Isn't this comment quite reductive?

There are many reasons why there are two separate apps and not necessarily related to how addictive the algorithm is. The "source" you linked gives one such reason:

> Like other social media services in China, Douyin follows the censorship rules of the Chinese Communist Party. It conscientiously removes video pertaining to topics deemed sensitive or inflammatory by the party, although it has proved a little harder than text-based social media to control.

Also have you used Douyin? It's really feels like basically the same thing.

Thanks for this article, it was the most succinct way to describe the right to own and right to repair regressions I've noticed. I'm glad I can point to your article instead of trying to describe it myself. If you're looking for others advocating for this I know of Louis Rossmann. He also recently started a wiki on consumer protection that I hope to contribute and collaborate with to empower users.

Wow it’s a big list. My must have features are left and right y-axis, easy zoom and pan with the mouse, and live updating so I can stream data to plots from industrial processes, updating about every 200ms.

I used kst-plot which was really good. I think airbus uses it too.

These days I am not doing any real time analysis only historical, so I am using Victoria metrics with data fed from a wonderware historian and grafana, since working with the wonderware historian directly is painful, and our samples are one every 15s

I’m curious if anyone has used some of these python plotting libraries that might work for my use cases. Thanks

Physics-based sounds perfectly fine to me.

"X-based" to me is equivalent with "based on X". Physics-based = based on physics, evidence-based = based on evidence, values-based = based on values; all perfectly fine.

Physically based feels correct in a sentence like "Our company is physically based in New York but we operate world-wide". But what does the "physically based" in "physically based rendering" mean?

But I'm not a native speaker, what do I know.
To your point, though, I think as you look around at McMansions and Wal-Mart there's nothing architecturally redeeming about those structures besides efficiency in building and internal climate control. We know the architectural styles are bad and there are (again to your point about skill) scientific ways we can measure this (Ann Sussman's work).

If you look at historical architecture patterns (mostly pre-WWI) they mirror how art has changed over time.

It's not that Impressionism came about and Renaissance became shit, it's that both are good and important stylistic contributions.

It's not that Gothic architecture came about then all the Romanesque stuff sucked. Both were good and unique.

We run into the same problem as "all art is equal" when we tend to express the belief that because we live in the time period we're complaining about that if only we waited a few hundred years we would recognize that our current building patterns are actually really good. That's just not the case.

It's possible insurance prices were rising specifically for them - because they had a lot of claims, for example - and not necessarily for everybody.
> Does the world need another RSS reader/mousetrap? We already have so many.

> What is your friend's idea to revolutionize with their new reader?

You don't need a revolution to make your app compelling, you just need to improve on status quo. RSS has a lot of shortcomings, most importantly discoverability.

Here's a simple idea: crowdsourced discovery. Users could opt-in to anonymously share their feed list (whole or parts); keyword-based categorisation could group them into topics; etc. The reader could use an algorithm (haha, we're coming full circle) to suggest interesting topics, feeds, posts. Honestly I'd be interested in something like <https://kagi.com/smallweb/>.

I don't think I've ever seen that on any of my shirts here in the US. Is this in the US?
I'm no lawyer and can't be arsed to do the proper research but for Georgescu to be able to declare he had 0 campaign spending while everyone knows that the tiktok campaign cost 20-50 million euros is insane to me.

If they aren't already prosecuting him on this I guess technically it's legal but such a weird loophole in the law. Any spending towards promoting a candidate should be public knowledge imo. EDIT: he was claiming bullshit like GOD chose him and that's how he got that good of a result. I guess his God is the people in the shadows that made his tiktok campaign lol

> For me the biggest scandal in Romania is that they threw the people's choice to the trash just because he didn't show up in polls

I think they did it for many reasons but not because he didn't show up in polls.

Top ones are:

- PSD didn't advance in the second round and they had the leverage to pull it off

- Georgescu was clearly anti-NATO so maybe the US pulled strings

- Danger of having a president with Russian sympathies

- He was claiming that he didn't spend a single dime on the election while everyone in the know knows that his tiktok campaign cost sever million euros
Supporting your argument:

From a left leaning publication

And from the WSJ (I don’t know how the paywall bypass works. I pay for Apple News and read the entire article).

The WSJ is right leaning when it comes to business. But I find it to be fair and not Trump worshipper

When it all comes down to it. Biden was no better than Trump. They both are old folks who put their own desires above what is best for the country.
I think the article is a false dichotomy but to answer your question: Most 3rd party dependencies can be accomplished easily if you know how to program (things like crypography or well defined algorithms aside). Frameworks and libraries are more like tooling, though they usually have an incentive to lock you into their view of the world.

If you are a good programmer/ independent thinker you will tend to just write software from first principles with limited tooling. Its leaner and faster to build that way. Its usually more effective software. 3rd party libraries though easy to implement bring their own interfaces/paradigms. They require maintenance/security updates. They are often written by individuals who care little about performance.

There are TONS of exceptions to what I am saying above and tons of great packages that I use frequently, but if the default is to try and solve a problem by installing a package now you have 2 problems.
Okay, that's because Grindr users choose to publicly share their current location; that's the point of the app. Governments having an API that lets them access data that users publicly share seems substantively different from governments having access to private information, obtaining that information by subverting internal controls at TikTok and ByteDance intended to keep it private. I think anyone not arguing for arguments sake would acknowledge that

Wait, it wasn't about performance, but it was about Performance?

It was that a pseudo-machine/VM approach put the VM IP owner (Adobe, Sun/Oracle) in driver's seat for control of the product's precious HW resources while letting their affiliates define the UI. What could go wrong, knowing that to invite in the vampire of their bloat & risk was to give those IP owners a competitive leg up to override all your design choices and serve their own markets, contrary to everything Jobs had done to rescue Apple from its clone wars.

Oh, and that Flash and Java were the world's most popular malware/APT delivery vehicles at that that continued to wreck PCs for many years after 2007.

But it wasn't about performance!

Or why Jobs choose to not drive a stake into his own heart to defend from vampires.

It would be interesting to see a companion presentation from the POV of Cingular/ATT. They likely also were very surprised and entertained by Jobs' device!

It is not. But not banning it for geopolitical reasons is a net positive for everyone.
The real problem is that we're politically/socially unwilling to transfer the risk to the people who are responsible for creating it: Wealthy coastal landowners believe that the cost of home insurance should be about $2000/year. If their properties actually cost $200,000 per year to insure, then that's what they should have to pay! If they don't like it, they should either build something cheaper (that's the other half of the product) or move to somewhere with less risk.

Tornados are almost the perfect example of an insurable hazard: Very low probability, very high damage, very widely distributed across the affected areas:

https://mrcc.purdue.edu/gismaps/cntytorn#

Click around that neat interactive map, you'll see that the tornado is typically a few miles long and a few hundred yards wide, there are a few thousand severe tornadoes scattered all over the Midwest and somewhat fewer on the east coast in the past 70 years. It's not feasible to build houses everywhere that will stand up to an F5 tornado throwing cars. But they only cause a total loss of a tiny fraction of all houses in the country, and there are relatively few choices anyone east of Texas can make that would meaningfully impact their risk.

You could price insurance premiums at the risk of a tornado times the cost of the insured assets, plus a 10% administrative fee/profit margin, and those rates would be affordable. Maybe a handful of people would choose to live in Colorado instead of a few hundred miles east in Kansas because the cost of this 'tornado insurance' was higher in Kansas, but even in Tornado Alley it wouldn't be unaffordable.

Conversely, if you look at the hurricane incidence and storm surge risk map:

https://coast.noaa.gov/hurricanes/#map=4/32/-80

https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/203f772571cb48b1b8b...

and population density along the gulf coast:

https://luminocity3d.org/WorldPopDen/#7/28.541/-88.011

It's clear that people are choosing to build houses in the narrow strip of low-lying land that's right along the coast and vulnerable to high-probability storm surges! If insurance was priced at cost of assets + administration times risk of loss, it would be really, really expensive.

A good use for home-cooked software is a UI layer over something clunky, or a glue layer over several systems that are cumbersome to use.

For me, that's the best use of time without re-inventing the wheel—though this is specifically for network apps and for addressing pain points of existing SaaS products.
> This is a misuse of the public Google OAuth API. Your first link clearly states: "A public application allows access to users outside of your organization (@your-organization.com). Access can be from consumer accounts, like @gmail.com, or other organizations, like @partner-organization.com." In other words it is intended for scenarios where you want to allow access to users outside your workspace.

> According to your second link the "hd" parameter only tells you what domain the user belongs to, it does not tell you what workspace the user belongs to.

From the docs:

> If you need to validate that the ID token represents a Google Workspace or Cloud organization account, you can check the `hd` claim, which indicates the hosted domain of the user. This must be used when restricting access to a resource to only members of certain domains. The absence of this claim indicates that the account does not belong to a Google hosted domain.

https://developers.google.com/identity/gsi/web/guides/verify...

Note also that even Google conflates "domains" with "Google hosted domains" with "Google Workspace or Cloud organization accounts."

> Choosing to ignore this option and instead integrating with the option designed for public access from all Google accounts, and then calling it a vulnerability when someone can login with an account from another workspace, is frankly, absurd.

At this point, if you still believe calling this a vulnerability is absurd, I don't think there's anything more I can say to convince you. Google paid out the bounty because they didn't believe it was abusrd.

I personally think that the best counterargument to calling it a vulnerability is: "well, sure, Google is reusing the Google Workspace identifier for different workspaces, which could be used to impersonate a user; but if you own the domain, you can also receive email as that user and reset the account that way."

I guess it depends on the goal. If you just want to build things then you don’t need anyone’s permission, but if you want people to use it or to make a living off it, it’s important to know why people would use what you’re building.

> with just as script running every 90 days

FWIW you should run most ACME clients more often than that, just in case there's a performance issue or bug at Let's Encrypt's side. The tooling won't replace your certificates unless they're almost expiring anyway. Certbot's instructions will have you set up a cron job that runs twice a day.

> Some services do not load certificates while running and must be restarted

This is exactly the kind of software that needs fixing. Luckily for the critical, nine nines uptime cases where 5 seconds of downtime for the web server restarting is unacceptable, there are services that will sell you certificates valid for a full year or even longer.

I doubt year long certificates are going away soon. We're already years off Let's Encrypt ending their 90 days offering, for sure. The convenience factor isn't going away, at some point it'll just cost a bit more.
On Aardwolf (a MUD), Lua is our main scripting language and it is amazing what people who come into the game not knowing how to program have been able to create with it, way beyond anything we envisioned.

It is lightweight when not in use and integrates perfectly with the core C codebase.

If I had to pick one single thing that has had the most impact in our game over the 25 years we have been around it would be moving all of our in-game scripting to Lua.
Isn't this thing going to be subsidized by taxpayers in the end anyway?

California already a dumb communal insurance thing, the "California FAIR Plan" for people who can't get insurance due to high risk. They force insurance companies who operate in the state to fund it. So basically everyone has to subsidize the high-risk people... but then the insurance companies leave.

<< It's just some company and we can choose to allow it to operate here or not as a society.

That is some mighty slippery slope you are on friend. You sure you are ok with this one company being singled out and exceptions slowly applied to the first amendment? Make no mistake. This, at best, is just a temporary pitstop, because, as time progresses, more and more will chosen to be 'disfavored'/'disallowed' ( I have no way of knowing what euphemism will be used to describe it ) to operate in society. Should be fun.

<< If we were talking about banning all social media, I think you'd be able to make a stronger 1st Amendment case.

We are talking about TikTok, but I am arguing that singling one company out effectively undermines 1st amendment. You may be right about strengthtening the case. I am not able to properly judge that.

<< Instead, we've passed a law through Congress to restrict a foreign business from operating in the United States.

Sure, but the restriction does not seem to apply to other market contestants. Meta and MS do the same things ( but for US ) and yet do not seem to be penalized.

And also, the customer has the money and gets to make a choice. Sure, supply and demand is a real thing. But there is also a notion of friction blocking the sale. Everyone absolutely hates considering a new purchase that doesn't give you clarity on details and price.

So that CTO says I'm probably not going to bother with you if you don't have a clear price. I also practice this purchasing way. Everyone should. So sure, someone in sales will fight to the death to justify their strategy of obfuscation and charging what the market will bear, and to try to justify their presence in the sales process with some kind of commission and argument about how they caused pain for the buyers and got more money. Meanwhile, company B sold me a widget for whatever, I already paid them, there was no salesperson wasting time on either side.
