This is an incredible achievement! I've been working in hardware design for 10 years. I've touched on most of what was covered here across various projects in my career, but never all at once. To have the discipline and motivation to carry a project like this through to completion is seriously impressive.
This should obviously use blockchain!

This is the personality equivalent of wonderbread.
The most abused concept in SAFe, because people fail to use it as intended (get a snapshot of the next quarter and be ready to pivot if things change) and use it to "lock down the plan," have teams refuse any new requests, and have management judge your "predictability score."

It's a great idea in theory until you see how much two full days of timeboxed planning every quarter beats down dev morale in practice. It's great for teams that literally don't know what they're doing and don't know their dependencies, because it forces them to confront their mediocrity. But you have to move beyond it eventually.
If this is your kind of thing and you ever get a chance to see the musical artist Tipper alongside Fractaled Visions driving the visuals, you’re in for a treat.

Most spot on visual depictions of psychedelic artifacts I’ve witnessed.

Saw them together last year and it’s the no. 1 artistic experience of my life. The richness, and complexity of Fractaled Vision’s visuals are almost unbelievable.

Even knowing a lot about shader programming, etc. some of the effects I was like “wtf how did he do that”.

Here’s the set, doesn’t fully capture the experience, but gives a feel: Seeing this in 4k at 60fps was next level.

I have a 2013 Outback Limited that is basically right before all this stuff got really stupid and weird. It's a great car other than it's not very fast and it gets really bad gas mileage. Amazing in the snow. I have had it since December 2012, so I've had plenty of service visits where I got newer loaners. (I special ordered my car to basically load it but not have Starlink, not have the Sunroof, but have the leather seats and the HK upgraded stereo.)

Every time I have gotten a newer Subaru as a loaner it strikes me that they are worse cars for all this new stuff. The user interface is horrible in the new ones. In a lot of cases they have a skeumorphic interface up on the touch screen that mimics the physical controls in my car! The actual physical controls are about 100x faster to operate and you quickly learn where the buttons are without looking.

I had an Ascent Onyx loaner last summer.. the entire touch screen UI looked like it was barely operating above 10fps. Just gross. Lots of the UI is black and white as well, not even tasteful grayscale. The Onyx I had also had the upgraded HK stereo and that is not as good as the one in my car as well, it sounded noticeably worse.

The electric steering on the new Subarus is terrible as well. My old Outback is not exactly a sports car but getting out of new one back into mine it feels like you're getting into a Porsche or something when you feel the hydraulic steering. Engine/Turbo lag on a lot of the new ones is gross as well.

This is of course even worse! My car only has 120k miles on it, I plan to keep it for another 4 years and then maybe give it to my kid when he gets his license. Somehow I doubt Subaru will have a competitive vehicle by then. For me to consider another one they'd really need to have an EV Outback/Forester/Ascent or a Hybrid version that gets at least 40mpg. And they need to fix all this horrible infotainment stuff in a way that the car operates better than a kids toy and actually drives well like an older Subaru. Also they need to get off the whole stupid thing with giant rims. It's supposed to be a Subaru, it needs to have tires appropriate to going relatively fast on dirt roads.

I'm wondering what made you switch ? I find the ubiquity of node very comforting, maybe I'm not seeing the argument that will convert me over ?
> So f&@@&?@&!& annoying to login to do something and have things moved around for zero benefit, but it really is the icing on the cake when they put a pop-up over the UI declaring the change with pride, which further distracts me from accomplishing the task I need to.

I'm sorry, I think you're confused. That annoyance you feel is the feeling of technology innovators innovating to make the world a better place. Change is good.

I'm looking forward to the singularity, where Silicon Valley will finally improve the human experience to the point where it will be pure inescapable annoyance, felt constantly all the time.

The haters needs to keep their negativity to themselves, get out of the way of the builders, and be positive about what they're building.

That's a cool idea. I wonder if one thing we could do here is to go through the Issues on the respective editor's GH page, and look for some "will not fix" issues. Documenting that could help devs figure out what might be a blocker for them.

Animal behavior and stress is a little more complicated than that. Not having to worry about predators, be low on food, or get sick/injured also significantly reduces stress.

Some animals need a lot of territory to roam and don't do well in captivity, some don't really care.

I'm not saying zoos are perfect, but well-run ones are far from evil either. Calling it 'terrible circumstances' is too broad. Sometimes yes, sometimes no.
I just tried Bun to make a script to copy files from a service we were moving off of to S3 and it's pretty great.

Instead of having to tinker with my package.json, tsconfig.json, etc. to get everything just right, it works right of the box the way you expected with `bun init`.

Then it's just `bun run index.ts`.

And it's fast!

Node is great but there's just too many options to configure. I appreciate that Bun went ahead and made a bunch of assumptions and pulled commonly used stuff directly into it.

I'm going off a claim from the Tailwind site :-)

The original question wasn't whether Tailwind can do something CSS can't, but whether it was a 1:1 mapping.

Can regular CSS do media queries all within the element's style attribute?

I believe Tailwind also utilizes JS to get some convenience features to work.
Also, Windows is not as fragmented so you don't tend to have different runtime environments where Ubuntu might include Y Utility but Rocky doesn't.

In the early days of the project it was segfaulting during performance tests. That was a pretty hair-raising bit of information for me. Deno it is.

That being said, all of these run times use a JS JIT that are written in a memory unsafe language, that emit and execute raw machine code. They frequently have vulnerabilities.

Unfortunately there are individuals who do almost this. Their names do travel in the VC circles. Their goal is to get VC money, enjoy the funds and preferably fail within a year or so; rinse and repeat.

Spend 3 to 9 months securing the funds, be boss, leading lavish lifestyle for 12 to 18 months, while getting paid and have lots of perks.

yes but the frequency is in the same phase . e.g. if you hook up 6 lights to a high quality supply, they will oscillate in sync
This might have been written just for me, I love the premise.

I am truly fascinated by people who attempt to reproduce the actual physiological vision effects of psychedelic drugs.

Psychoactive drugs can be probes into the inner workings of our minds - in some scientific sense - and exploring the vision effects seems likely to suggest interesting things about how our visual system works.

Mostly, I am just impressed when anyone is able to capture the visual experience in graphical effects, with any level of realism.

Many, but not any. No finite set of real primary colours can produce every perceivable colour. Some will always be out of gamut.

Grover Cleveland also had two non-consecutive terms, and the twenty second amendment is pretty clear in it's language that you can only be elected to the office of President twice.
I'm confronted with a similar problem frequently. I have a growing bash script and it's slowly growing in complexity. Once bash scripts become sufficiently long, I find editing them later to be very annoying.

So instead, at some point I change the language entirely and write a utility in python/lua/c/whatever other language I want.

As time goes on, my limit for "sufficient complexity" to justify leaving bash and using something like python has dropped radically. Now I follow the rule that as soon as I do something "nontrivial", it should be in a scripting language.

As a side-effect, my bash scripting skills are worse than they once were. And now the scope of what I consider "trivial" is shrinking!

This really reinforces my aversion to internet connected cars. They used one to kill Michael Hastings.
Some do (Go), but it is really not the best idea.
You do want to have one central place where you specify:

- version constraints
- source of packages (you may want to host them yourself one day)
- any additional metadata (some packages have options or features)
It feels like having lower mental load because it handles a certain amount of the most granular complexity for you. It’s less tiring and I can code for longer.

I already used TDD on occasion. It’s even more enjoyable now that someone else is doing the tedious work of coming up with (most of) the cases we have to test and drafting up the test code so that I just need to make sure it’s actually checking the things it needs to and that the fixtures are hooked up properly (it struggles with that sometimes).

The people who are best at it seem to come from a documentation-first perspective. Personally I enjoy that even less than TDD, and haven’t tried it because I’m just doing this for fun and what’s the point if it means doing more of the parts I dislike?

If you want portable shell-scripts that come with their dependencies bundled, Nix also has a solution: writeShellApplication[0] (and more simpler ones like writeShellScript).

writeShellApplication {
name = "show-nixos-org";

runtimeInputs = [ curl w3m ];

text = ''
curl -s 'https://nixos.org' | w3m -dump -T text/html
'';
}

writeShellApplication will call shellcheck[1] on your script and fail to build if there are any issues reported, which I think is the only sane default.

I hardly know where to begin! This project is exceptional in every sense—a true masterpiece. Remarkably, its creator is still in high school, yet he’s already demonstrated brilliance beyond his years. The endorsements he’s received, the connections he’s begun to forge, and the incredible opportunities now within his reach are nothing short of extraordinary. As he himself put it, accomplishments like these are only possible when you believe deeply in your vision and persist relentlessly until the finish line. None of this would have been possible if he had given up before completing this remarkable work of art.

It’s posts like this, fueled by incredible community support, that make Hacker News not just great but unmatched.

With 2,000 points (and counting), this Show HN is currently ranked as the 4th-best Show HN of all time. If we exclude the #1 post (this upvotes itself)—which isn’t a true project—this post would be the 3rd-best of all time. Who knows? By tomorrow, it may surpass 2,741 points and claim the #1 spot outright.

Outstanding work, Bryan. All the best.

Deno can directly import in TS/JS from URLs, really nice for small 'shell scripts', but has some considerable downsides for bigger projects:

PS: also Godbolt's C/C++ compilers can directly #include from URLs, I guess they run their own custom C preprocessor over the code before passing it on to the compilers:

Individually applied styles kinda defeats the purpose of cascading style sheets though.

As someone who's quite conversant with regular CSS, I really did like the ease of applying whatever style I wanted right in the code without needing to "worry" about whether this div is a "panel" or a "hero" or whatever, but it really does tend to make a huge mess of my HTML in very short order.
