There's a massive difference between your personally identifiable information visible to people who physically pass by versus people all over the world + various automated tools.

Also you're making a difference between license plates and doorbell names where there is no difference; it's only muddying the waters. The only difference is: visible to people physically close by is ok, visible on internet is not ok.

We lost the plot when interface design became UI/UX (and all the associated modern variants on this terminology).

The goal of an interface is clear: it is how a human interacts with a machine. Buttons, dials, latches, sliders - those are interfaces. We can reason about them, make taxonomies, determine what operations they are appropriate for (or not), and so on.

“User experience” tries to capture everything into a nebulous haze that exists not to serve a human with a task to accomplish that a tool will assist with - but a business and how it will capture “users” and guide them on the “journey” it deems most appropriate to reach its sales goals.

Design students won’t be able to formulate a cogent thought on what the properties of appropriate interface feedback are, but they’ll be great at cranking out “personas” and sleek landing pages that enumerate marketing points. Something’s rotten.

This is moving the goalposts. "Safe rust" isn't a distinct language. The unsafe escape hatch is there to make sure that all programs can be implemented safely.
Could be any number of answers, maybe the tracking is outsourced to another division or company altogether without shared infrastructure.
So, each ghost of a line is not stored at all. The moving line is stored as an object like you suggest. Each line has two Velocity-Point objects (which have 4 parameters: x,y location of the endpoint and x,y velocity of that point). So really a line can be viewed as an array with 8 values, which lives for the length of the whole program. I personally do kinda like object oriented code so it's helpful to think of the points and the velocity separately. But there's just one pointer to these values. The values are changed over time in that single Line object, and at each frame they're projected to the display buffer.

The display buffer is actually a flat 1D array which also lives through the whole program (mostly) where each 4 sequential values are the r,g,b,a for a single pixel. You don't ever need to copy that array unless you're doing something fancy with window resizing. A simple function translates any x,y coordinate pair (such as a point on a line) into the correct location in the flat array space, and you just modify that array as you go along. When you're done doing things to those values, you just overwrite the entire canvas with that 1D array in a single call.

In fact, the screen buffer array in this case was probably unnecessary, since <canvas> can easily let you get and set the values of individual pixels, draw lines, etc. But I wanted to do it in a flat array to reduce the number of draw calls to one per frame, and also to not overly bind my code to any particular display method.

Amazing you'd suggest an R4 given it's support is fundamentally broken.

Sinovoip's OEM build is an ancient 21.02 one. Whereas in the official one wifi is completely broken, working SFP is pure luck as "many" modules (all four fiber ones I've got here) on kernel 6.6 either don't show at all or just fail to come up. This was known to OpenWrt's mediatek maintainer who preferred to "spot and fix" it on the go:

https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/commit/6257ea018a7d5b8d4b...

Meanwhile there are about two kernel devs working on mediatek in their free time who've only begun upstreaming R4 support, eg. Frank W.'s DTS parts… for kernel 6.14. (The other dev is Eric. W.)

To quote Frank W.:
"The patches i posted are mainly patches adding basic support,only slightly changed to get accepted for mainline. There is no network part yet,also no sfp. Maybe i add sfps in next round,but without full network part (which is much work) it will not work."
( https://forum.banana-pi.org/t/bpi-r4-and-sfp/16945/330 )

Edit: The R4 also needs a soldering mod for certain SFP modules, and prior board revs have resistors that break SFP if NVMe is present (I'd say: sure to get 1.1, but Sinovoip originally shipped that rev broken as well, and didn't increment to 1.2 for the fixed ones).

Totally agree this the best way to handle a lot of issues in your life. But that doesn't stop it from being a negative experience. If you have something that you liked about yourself and lose it, it's negative.

You can overcome that (and I feel somewhat better about it than I have previously), but doesn't somehow make it a positive experience.

It would be better if you could spend that time and mental energy on making your life better, instead of dealing with a random flaw in your genes.

Coal generation favours long run times and is inefficient at being ramped up and down quickly. Using battery systems to soak surplus power time shifts a commodity which otherwise has to be negatively priced. The ideal input for a battery is of course renewable energy but there is a case for batteries as energy soak during times of low consumption, and to help stabilise demand in the network. This isn't an individual car efficiency statement, it's about socialised costs.

DeepSeek's Success: A Triumph or a Sign of Poor Planning?
It's quite telling when a tech company can't keep up with its own success. DeepSeek's recent suspension of API service recharges due to "server resource constraints" highlights a glaring oversight in scalability planning. For a firm that's been in the spotlight for over two weeks, failing to anticipate and manage increased demand is more than just unfortunate—it's a testament to poor foresight. One has to wonder: was the surge in interest really that unpredictable, or is this a sign of deeper issues within their infrastructure strategy?
The site says

"Das Vorhandensein von datenschutzfreundlicheren Optionen steht im Widerspruch zu einem berechtigten Interesse"

which means

"The existence of more privacy-friendly options contradicts a legitimate interest."

But did they really test if the alternatives block bots as well as reCaptcha?

If not, wouldn't that mean there is a legitimate interest in using reCaptcha?

If the mere existence of more privacy-friendly options, no matter how inferior, means you cannot use a certain service, wouldn't that make the use of pretty much every service illegal in the EU?

> > All white space in HTML and XML is preserved verbatim.

> Do you mean "any change to whitespace in HTML or XML results in a semantically inequivalent document"? That's a perspective you can take, but it has pretty undesirable results: it means you can't ever reformat HTML or XML source. And it very clearly contradicts how most people understand and expect to work with HTML.

I don't think that's what grandparent meant. I read that HTML and XML do not impose any coalescing of whitespace. Whatever whitespace is read by a parser is accepted as such. Whether the whitespace has semantic value or not is not a concern for HTML or XML as data formats.

On the other hand, coalescing whitespace is a feature of HTML and XML renderers.

And you are correct: a tool that reformats whitespace inside a <verbatim> tag will output semantically wrong results (e.g. if the contents are Python code). Which supports the point: the semantics of whitespace are not determined by the HTML or XML data formats, but by the tools generating and consuming the data.
This sort of policy comes from the Home Office regardless of who gets elected. The spooks always want everything.

You could probably make an ECHR argument about it, but even Germany who are most paranoid about Stasi-like behavior have some sort of rights carveout for law enforcement purposes.

I agree that memory safety gets over-hyped and is often treated like a silver bullet solution. However, I do believe the problems of memory unsafely to be real and to be a threat (just less than what the popular opinion is). We've tried using static analyzers and C and AI driven detection to limited success, we cannot guarantee correct C code, this is just a hard problem when a project as big and important as the kernel exists.

Rust was an experiment proposed by Linus so I don't really see this as driven by a small group, it should be the standard as that's what Linus wanted to try. It's an experiment that's having social problems.

I think alternative projects are a good idea and some are already being and have been created, but the Goal of this experiment was to help Linux evolve in a direction to keep the kernel competitive and healthy.

I think Rust is a great idea but it might not be the right fit for the kernel socially, which is unfortunate. Maybe the only option forward here is improving C... but that seems like an impossible task without breaking changes. I do hope for the best with the kernel and with the RFL maintianers.
Why settle for dollars and let it create a new monetary system, that would challenge the current status quo (preferably?) without a violent conflict.
U+0020 is perhaps the weirdest character in Unicode. Most of the time it's used to separate words, which is arguably a kind of mark-up. But sometimes it's used for other kinds of formatting. Also, if you were to use explicit mark-up for words I have no idea how you'd handle punctuation. Perhaps writing should be redesigned from the ground up?

But meanwhile, though we'd all love to see the plan, let's stick with the mess we're used to.

Harvard like other liberal institutions has little to no political capital in a Republican white house in the first place. Why would it cost them any to host data that is in the public domain?

This sort of silly overreaction is part of why people voted for Trump: it is genuinely funny to see people overreact to Trump because theyve been told by the legacy media that he is a "threat to democracy" over and over.

Last time he was elected his government also removed a bunch of climate data from govt websites which was quickly mirrored by third parties. Nobody was taken away by the Gestapo then and there is no reason to think things will be any different this time.
At this time of day, I'd wager half of the users here are able to comprehend German texts. The other half knows how to use a translation tool.
This bothers me too:

> Newlines and tabs are also treated identically and collapsed into spaces.

This means that simply formatting your HTML -- as you might when hand-editing -- can add spaces. Possibly, something else is going on too: I'm not an expert here, I've just observed rendering differences when you have a newline between tags. Maybe it's inline vs block tags as the author also discusses?

This has bitten me a few times and my hand-written sites or SSG-generated sites that I want to look nice have several ugly, long lines that should be broken up to be readable, but are not.

I don't know where the belief that all criminals are tech experts comes from; the popularity of cool-looking "encrypted" phones as opposed to actually encrypted apps like Signal should have long dispelled that myth.

I'd argue that the opposite is probably true, people who think that crime pays are less smart and more impulsive than the average person, and hence less likely to think about things like this.

Yet that is not what memory safety means. A program being memory safe or not depends on its actual behaviour not what you can prove about that behaviour. There are plenty of safe C programs and plenty of unsafe ones. Proving something is safe doesnt make it safe.

Also these properties are a very small subset of general correctness. Who cares if you write a "safe" program if it computes the wrong answer?

> Do you mean "any change to whitespace in HTML or XML results in a semantically inequivalent document"?

In the strictest sense? Yes.

Of course, we can build tools that make... call it "unsound assumptions"... and I'll happily use them and encourage their use, because you can make the correct judgement call that those assumptions should hold in your context (and that the one causing the assumptions to be broken, if they ever are, is the one "at fault" rather than the tools.)

On the other hand, if those same tools are then automatically applied beyond your control, there's a good chance those unsound assumptions will be broken, and become a source of pain and suffering for whatever strange - or not so strange - edge cases your own context comes with.

Whitespace isn't the only source of this problem - and it's one of the problems I have with WYSIWYG editors in general. Often, they don't clean up after themselves and leave behind a bunch of editor shrapnel, in part because they can't remove stuff that might technically be semantically inequivalent. Those same editors might also remove stuff I wanted to keep!
ReCAPTCHA’s privacy concerns are valid, but I wonder if alternatives like FriendlyCaptcha can offer the same bot protection while being GDPR compliant.
It's not a direct conversion it seems, but assuming daylight then 0.04 umol/s/m^2 should be around 2 lux.

I was curious how this compared to being on Pluto, but apparently Pluto gets a lot more sunlight than I imagined[1]:

So at high noon on Pluto you’d get at least 60 lux of sunlight.

Civil twilight is roughly enough light to read by, and that’s 3.4 lux. Moonlight is less than 0.3 lux.

60 lux would be comparable to indoor lighting in a hall or stairway.
