I agree wholeheartedly. And IMO, CSS isn’t even difficult, it just requires you to properly and effectively visualize the cascade to handle downstream effects.

My problem is when people start using cognitive crutches such as LESS and SASS, which bloat the CSS immensely with insanely redundant styling. I once took a generated CSS file from a “professional” and cut it down from over 500kb to less than 180Kb with zero loss of functionality or presentation. One HTML widget had separate - and absolutely identical - CSS for each and every single one of the 25+ pages it was present on. That was 250+ lines of CSS, instantly evaporated by consolidating down to one common class and two special cases that had extra stuff. Which is insane.

I'm really interested to see how the non-US members respond to the US becoming belligerent to Western cooperation.

This is the opportunity for everyone else to band together in their shared interests. Let the US try its new isolation.

My bank knows where I live and if I start cashing fake checks they know where to send the FBI.

Even in the old paper days banks where a little hesitant to let me come into your bank with a check from you and cash it without me also being a customer of that same bank. In theory you could do it, but sometimes if you tried you got the runaround.

Did you miss the fact that he stole the movie before it was released from the DVD publisher?

There's not a 1-1 relationship between DVD buyers and pirates but some people just want to watch the movie or save it for posterity, and don't care what format it's in. There is definitely a cost to piracy. But nobody knows exactly what that cost is.

Wanna know what's really stupid? Some people pay $20 or more to rent or buy a digital copy of a movie through a service that can pull the content any time. Compared to that, the hard copy is a fantastic value.

Learning and thinking are separate things. Today's models think without learning -- they are frozen in time -- but this is a temporary state borne of the cost of training. I actually like it like this because we don't yet have impenetrable guardrails on these things.

> If you look at the training data (the internet), the hardest and most ambiguous problems don't have a simple question input and answer response, they instead have a lot of back-and-forth before arriving at the answer, so you need to simulate that same back-and-forth to arrive at the desired answer. Unfortunately model architecture is still too simple to implicitly do this within the model itself, at least reliably.

Today's thinking models iterate (with function calls and Internet queries) and even backtrack. They are not as reliable as humans but are demonstrating the hallmarks of thinking, I'd say.

The stories in Discworld books are character driven. LOTR is much more plot driven. I feel like this is an apples and oranges comparison.

It also feels a bit like the false dichotomy arguments from my teenage years, where you could like either Star Trek or Star Wars, but not both.
I tried box detergent because of his dishwasher video, and that's probably saved me hundreds of dollars at this point, with the added benefit of my dishes actually get cleaner.

I also dumped a crappy beverage cooler in my office for a cheap as hell box mini-fridge, which actually maintains temperature enough that I can store cream for coffee and ice down here, and it uses less energy then the unit before.
How so? You have to keep paying for everything, or your profits will be taken away. Your profit potential is always and only limited by your ability to cover costs in advance. Saving on necessary expenditures brings you zero benefit, because any necessary expenditure that you eliminate must be replaced by an unnecessary one, or profits will go down instead of up.
As someone in a similar position, I have a different take. I think SWE is compensated more highly for different reasons. I disagree that programming is any more difficult to learn than EE; I think it's pretty clear that they're broadly on the same tier and require similar (but not identical) skill sets. I think that only a small fraction of people are well suited to either.

The biggest difference is that software is just closer to "the product". When something goes wrong on a typical embedded device, the first thing they say isn't "well, better bring in exmadscientist to redesign the board", it's "let's fix this in firmware". And so on and so forth. Most electrical projects just aren't, directly, the project. There's a big layer of software in between, and that software becomes the face of the product or even business and captures so much of the mindshare.

The other big reason is simply that the complexity of software is unbounded. For me, there are only so many parts I can stuff onto a board. But software has no such limits. I was just looking at 2.5GbE Ethernet switch chips for a hobby project -- a hobby project -- and concluded that they weren't bad at all and would take me somewhere around 40 hours to deal with, start to finish. That's for one of the nastier things around in your typical consumer environment (short of a 5GHz CPU) and represents a tremendous amount of investment on so many levels to get things to be not only possible, but down to the level that a seniorish engineer can just do it that quickly.

In contrast, a dinky web interface to manage the stupid thing would also probably be around 40 hours (less if crappy, way more if done "to modern standards"). Which is kind of insane, when you think about how many Gbps SERDES links are in each project! But software can do whatever it feels like, while the hardware side necessarily has constraints on it, so this is what we get.

However, I also think things are pretty imbalanced right now: SWE is somewhat overpaid, and will correct down over time. So it's not a great career to leverage the farm against, though I'd say it's never going to pay worse than EE or ME.
It's good it works for you. But it certainly does matter, and no, it doesn't always work. Like with anything on the internet, though: my experience vs your experience.

Never got in the car having one layer too many and having to turn down the temp? Or the other way around: not enough layers on and realise 10 minutes into the drive that it’s a bit chilly? Is your preferred temperature the same as the one of you passenger? Or you get in the car from a massive rain and you need to blast that aircon and bump the temp to deal with humidity completely obstructing the windshield?

Aragorn begins Fellowship as the reigning monarch of "the rangers," actually a dispersed nation. They call him Chief to outsiders but his people know who he is and what he hopes to become. I reread the books pretty recently and this was one of the most surprising things that I forgot/got overwritten by movie characterization. He was never a nobody, by the time we meet him he is 40 years into the project of preparing himself for a great trial and then kingship.
Which do you recommend these days?

As the article notes, Mozilla is telegraphing incoming targeted advertisements in Firefox. Everything else is a Chrome derivative and unless someone steps up to maintain Manifest V2 (which I've seen no evidence of so far), uBlock Origin will no longer function on them.

I would love to be able to rely on my browser to be a user agent that actually has my interests and only my interests at heart—I have hopes that maybe Orion can get there with a paid-for model. But in the meantime, most of the choices I can see are flawed in some way that justifies an extra layer of protection.
Yes they are. Because Peter Thiel and Elon Musk and half the people in this community have been working for a decade to make that happen. Now joined by Marc Andreesen and a bunch of people who’ve gotten rich off the back of the exact kind of research they’re now decimating for their extremist insane ideological agenda

Someone probably knows this in more detail, and I can easily get the magazine wrong. But I’ll share the anecdote, maybe it’ll ring someone else’s bell.

Back in the day, talking 40s to 50s, Analog published a letter to the editor that was “from the future”. Several years in the future. The writer was commenting on the stories, the topics, the writers, etc. in that issue.

Several years later (and I want to say it was, like, 9 years), Analog published that issue based on that letter. They contracted the authors and stories, the whole thing.

That's the same argument as with Android - its open source, anyone can fork it and change whatever they don't like!

And its flawed in the same way - first its not fully open source (IIRC Crhome has some proprietary bits that are not in Chromium, same with Android+Google Play services vs AOSP) but good luck maintaining your fork for any length of time!

Google is in full control of both Android and Chromium with all decisions happening behind closed doors with zero leverage for anyone from the outside to influence those decisions. So as with Manifest v3 now and many similarly bad decisions for Android, once Google selects a course, it will be harder and harder over time to keep your changes if you still want the end result to look like what the users will see as Chrome/Android.

And I would say with a browser the pressure to update would be even greater & thus its even harder to keep any signifficant custom changes.
The outcome will be the same, just the benefactor will change.

> Entire world can't avoid the US if they, on the other hand, want VC funding (just because in some countries a "startup" in the American sense is literally illegal, and in almost all countries, in practice impossible because no one will invest without a tangible collateral).

I'm a bit confused by the sentiment here. Do I understand correctly that you're saying the rest of the world has made "startups" in the American sense illegal, but is also terrified of losing in America what they've deliberately outlawed domestically?

This is hardly hacking the network. DHCP configuration is surfaced in almost every home router that exposes an admin panel (which is most of them).

If you don't want to broadcast your Pihole's address as a default DNS over DHCP, you can always just do it manually through the DNS panel on your device that you almost certainly have used in the past (statistically speaking, given HN's audience) to point it to quad9, or 1.1.1.1, or google's DNS.

> Ukraine didn't have nuclear weapons. America does

So? If nuclear war is always an intolerable choice for America, then America's nuclear weapons will never be used in any case, and any aggressor who can plausibly threaten nuclear war is free to seize anything from America with that threat.

If nuclear war isn't always intolerable, then, well, we've eliminated the premise off the upthread argument about Ukraine, and are in a different discussion.

Volume - scroll wheel

Heating - voice or screen, screen can be top screen for most functions (it’s editable for most-used functions)

Fans - same as heating, adjusting direction is top screen

Hazards - physical button near rear view mirror

Lights - stalk

Wipers - stalk and scroll wheel

Autopilot (adaptive cruise control with lane assist) - right stalk and scroll wheel

I use it almost daily for asking questions. It’s 100x faster at reading documentation than I am but it’s still pretty bad at actually writing code.
Nice concept – but unfortunstely I found it to be incorrect in all of the examples I tried with my Mac.

It'd also need to be much more precise in hardware specs and cover a lot more models and their variants to be actually useful.

Grading the compatibilty is also an absolute requirement – it's rarely an absolute yes or no, but often a question of available GPU memory. There's a lot of other factors too which don't seem to be considered.
We should certainly not whitewash the Chinese. But let's not whitewash ourselves, ether.

Last semester, I taught Calculus at an urban school. One day, a student came up to me and asked if I had anything to eat. Shock. I went to the school's social worker, and she said that yes, 1 in 5 of their students had no idea where their next meal was coming from.

About 10% of the students were so tired that the slept thorough class. Turns out, they were working the night shift, in order to help their parents put food on the table. This is technically against the law, but "bloated bureaucratic regulations" had been loosened and the schools no longer have any obligation or authority to report how many hours its high school students are working. That is now left to the companies, who of course will do so even though there is nobody checking the accuracy of their reports.

Yes, we have literal Dickensonean child labor happening in our cities.

Of course, when these children graduate, they will not have an education, and so their children will have to repeat the cycle all over again. But the city does have a very nice supply of cheap labor.

I don't like some of the things happening in China either. But I live here, and until we clean up our own act I don't feel like pointing fingers. It remains the case that China has raised HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of people out of poverty and into the middle class. For all its faults, it has managed to create a middle class larger than the entire population of the U.S.

The point is there soon may not be. I'm a Firefox guy myself, but Mozilla looks like it is wanting to turn evil as well. So what's left? One of the forks of Chrome or Firefox? What happens if either "for security" decide to stop releasing their code? It could happen, projects have stopped being open sourced in the past. It couldn't stop people from basing browsers on the earlier code of course, but those would eventually have compatibility problems as they wouldn't have access to new changes.
That's true but most of the features are for the chrome management panel or client side, which would all presumably be separated from workspace and inherited by the new company. They could then move features from the free tier into the premium tier to put pressure on enterprises and schools to pay.

There are some cross-cutting server side features for context aware access for google workspace and google cloud, which were inherited from beyondcorp enterprise, so those would presumably stay with the real google of course.
I highly recommend Goatcounter! It’s a reliable tool with a great free version. You can even self-host it.
I'm in the midst of completing this using FreshRSS and a suite of open source apps that provide the capacity for making functional feeds of almost any kind of periodic content, supplied to me in chronological order, in a list of basic formatted text headlines that are not visually distinguished by anything other than the host favicon, or published cover image if I've toggled that view. I have moved most of my news, YouTube, and blog feeds and I feel less inclined to scroll endlessly, and it makes me more intentional about the things I want to follow versus the things I want to be vaguely aware of. It's been a little work, as a sysadmin I find this kind of self-hosting pretty natural, but I have found it worthwhile (and there are easier options, if maybe not so thoroughly decentralized, Feedly is what I recommend for folks less-inclined towards the nuts and bolts).

I haven't been on any kind of Facebook/Instagram/Twitter social network for several years now, I also encourage people to try giving it up for 2-3 months, and I wager that it will feel distinctly odd and uncomfortable if/when you return. From a naive person's perspective, social media is flat out strange. It's got its own culture, lingo, and social constructs that feel a little odd. It's easy to see how it might be manipulative in a lot of subtle ways. But I do admit I lost touch with some people whom I miss. Each person should find their own balance with algorithmically determined content feeds, but I am a firm believer it should be, on balance, less.
