>Serious question; Why do you feel EU is a "shitshow"? What EU policies do you feel have been overreaching on the individual member country's sovereignty lately?

Off the top of my head:

- failing to addressing illegal immigration and even supporting it

- bad energy policies

- bad monetary policies

- no policies to stimulate innovation, economic growth, birth rates or affordable housing

- trying to push surveillance policies
If a country declares war on an individual something has gone deeply wrong.

But, the idea of tariffs being anywhere near as bad as harassing visitors is ridiculous. That's a whole nother level of violation.

Canada should just be happy someone's talking about them and they didn't even have to move to LA to make it happen.

When was OBJECTID introduced and when did gmail roll their own implementation, do you happen to know?
I wish instead of this marketing article there were technical details, for example: what method of change tracking is used (proxies Vue-style or recomputing everything React-style).

Also I didn't understand the phrase about JS "overflowing stack" with 150 000 objects. I created a list of 150 000 objects with the following code:

var list = [];
for (var i = 0; i < 150000; i++) { list.push({ id: i, name: `Name ${i}`, weight: i * 100 }); }

According to profiler, this array (with objects) uses 14 Mb, where 2 Mb is array and the rest are objects and strings. Running list.find() without any indexes also doesn't overflow the stack. With indexes it would probably be lightning fast and won't need any WASM and complications.

JS is not that slow. And if you do numeric computations (i.e. multiplication of numbers in large arrays) the code gets compiled and runs pretty fast.
Exactly what I was looking for without even knowing it :)

* configurable board size with the number of black pieces adjusted. the classic 8x8 board with 16 black pieces could be one preconfigured choice

* multiple white knights.

* a random black piece moves after each jump of the white knight
Oh my dear lord.

Due process exists for precisely this reason, and Trump and his band of sycophants intentionally bypassed due process as a "show of strength". An example. A wilful accident.

There were already processes in place so that exactly this kind of accident does not occur.
i think you are missing the irony.

but you are also missing the fact that the great part of the industry works in the same way: using open source stuff, in a super parasitic way, to track and control millions of users.

I am a audio-visual learner and on Duolingo, which I am currently using to learn Spanish, my biggest problem is, that I have not a real visual for the words. Sure sometimes you get a picture for single substantives, but learning via video and watching mouth movements is so much better for me.

So this is a welcome tool I am definitively gonna check out.
LLMs work much better on narrow tasks. They get more lost the more information you introduce. Models are introducing reasoning now which is trying to assert this problem and some models are getting really good at it like o3 or reasoner.com. I have access to both and it looks like, soon, we will have models that become more accurate when we introduce more complexities, which will be a huge breakthrough in AI.
I didn’t say anything remotely like that, pretty much the opposite actually.
I know about datalist, but it's the saddest autocomplete experience you can offer. If something is not fully styleable, it's automatically garbage. If it's styleable, it may be decent.

Now, I understand why datalist is not styleable the way it is implemented right now. On Android, the suggestions come on the top bar of the native keyboard, so it doesn't make sense to be able to put arbitrary divs there. But in that case, there should be an alternative styleable autocomplete element.

Another element that is unstyleable crap is <input type=file>, <audio> too.

>but I think DOGE have demonstrated with USAID that the President absolutely could have closed it by executive order and simply cutting off the pay of everyone there

You're assuming the system would have been as compliant with Obama as they are with Trump, but I doubt that would have been the case. Congress passed a law to make it illegal for Obama to close Gitmo and simply refused to allow it, but their hands are mysteriously tied WRT Trump and DOGE.

The president nowadays has immunity for official acts, so he can ship the gold to Russia anyway if he signs an executive order saying it’s necessary for world peace.

When I was figuring out what reader to put in my ancient android 5 tablet (dedicated for offline ebooks) I tried KO, but the UI was way too complex. I've since been happy with Librera, but seeing all this high praise, it seems that I need to revisit KO.

I made it like that in the beginning (and wrote about it and other decisions in a blog post[1]), but felt it was too punishing. Maybe I could punish with 1/2 of the piece value.

It's both. The majority of web developers today suck, plain and simple. They thought they could make a lot of money doing web dev and don't approach engineering as an art form or a science. They just scrape by and do not level up on their own outside of or during work.

I've had to come in and rewrite apps before where the developers had full leeway and still produced an unmaintainable behemoth of third-party components loosely taped together.

Also, React is a nightmare. An absolute minefield with zero cohesive vision, with an ever-changing API and a culture of shaming developers who haven't switched to the new React paradigm-of-the-year. For a framework meant for serious adults, I'd check out mithril. It's small, API-stable and intuitive, and gets right out of your way.
Absolutely, but in the context of IMAP, it's already a mess of special cases. Gmail having a weirdness, an extension or two changes basically nothing. Not to mention the fact that what they offer over the web is more flexible than what IMAP usually allows, it simply does not and can not map directly to IMAP.

It's really dumb that one message has* to exist in only one location for example, labels are so much better.
Tho, the level of law breaking by DOGE and Trump himself is unprecedented. Obviously Obama could became fascist as much as they are going, he could sieg heil too ... but him not being as far as them is a good thing about Obama. I am fine with the idea that it was an excuse back then. But, the "he could do the same anti-democratic anti-rule-of-law" decisions as Trump and Obama is not much argument.

Second, Obama did not had supreme court saying "president is above the law and can break it" nor would right wing supreme court justices voted for it. Trump has that ruling, because his politics matches the one of the right wing supreme court justices.

Third, Obama had actual opposition. Conservatives and republicans were opposing EVERYTHIGN he was doing. And had power to do so. Including when he adopted their own ideas. They even threw massive fit about suit of a wrong color. Right now, republicans have all the power including , majority in supreme court, so there are not checks or balances.

It sounds like you have a strong inner monologue. Some people do, some don't. I don't subvocalize (no inner voice when reading). Words aren't involved when I think about stuff. I don't have an inner "voice" at all, only when I'm trying to communicate. Maybe I need to more "translating" from thought to voice than you do?

This stuff is fascinating.
Nope. Plenty people don't have an internal monologue, and even if they do it's not on all the time.

For me, when I need to think clearly about a specific/novel thing, a monologue helps, but I don't voice out thoughts like "I need a drink right now".

Also I read much faster than I speak, I have to slow down while reading fiction as a result.
2010 being 15 years ago is making me feel pretty ancient.
Indeed. If only there was some sort of process where there would be fact finding and ultimately be put beyond all reasonable doubt whether a claim like this is true before sending someone off to prison. Even better, there ought to be a constitution or maybe even universal declaration guaranteeing such a process.

The point is not to avoid GC entirely, but to reduce allocation pressure.

If you can avoid allocs in a hot loop, it definitely pays to do so. If you can't for some reason, and can use sync.Pool there, measure it.

Cutting allocs in half may not matter much, but if you can cut them by 99% because you were allocating in every iteration of a 1 million loop, and now aren't, it will make a difference, even if all those allocs die instantly.

I've gotten better than two fold performance increases on real code with both techniques.
A perfect interface would be a combination of both ways. Also it depends on personal preferences. I learned to use a paper map as a teenager and it’s convenient for me but I know some people struggle to find a way even using a map on a smartphone.

You added the part about exfiltration from the country. It is possible he has been kidnapped by Chinese secret police in the country and remains in the country (at least until they manage to coerce him to return "willingly".) Anyway, nobody said anything about witness protection either, that part was your hallucination too.

By the way, before you get yourself all worked up, I think the much more likely possibility is that he has disappeared for a mundane reason, such as murder, or else he has deliberately disappeared himself for some reason.
I am not on the React bandwagon, currently using HTMX

But I would very much prefer to see TypeScript in a framework. Optional TS is ok but "untyped by design" feels like an anti-pattern, even HTMX has TS types available.
> This is all to say: the guardian became a nonprofit-like trust at a point in time it was already a stable business, with capital to self-finance.

The same kind of logic was applied to two french newspapers:

- Le canard enchaîné, created in 1915, specific status preventing sale of capital made in 1958. Motive was foiling an attempted takeover by another company.

- Mediapart, created in 2004, trust made in 2019. They made the change deliberately in order to protect the newspaper's future.

Both newspapers are doing well today, so I'm not sure this kind of thing is a product of its time and impossible to copy nowadays. However, both newspapers are producing quality investigative journalism, which most news media don't these days.
Author here. React’s absolutely mature—no question there, with a skilled team behind it. But the button example highlights something off: a single component outweighing an entire app feels fundamentally broken. There’s clear room for fresh alternatives, especially now. You can see it here on HN—seasoned devs wrestling with React’s wild complexity. Nue’s a stab at fixing that.

> ... a wealthy person placing their money in a charitable trust - that actually does valuable work, rather than handing it to their children

Isn’t it money that should have gone to the State here, rather than the children? They didn’t do the trust not to give money to their children, but rather to avoid taxes.
I agree. In a recent small project, I ran an experiment: first, I built the app in React, then in Vue, and finally in vanilla JS. In the end, I stuck with the vanilla JS version because it was significantly smaller, easier to deploy, and much simpler to maintain long-term.
I do understand that in bad cases it can be very frustrating as an engineer to chase vague statements only to be told later 'nah, that was not what I meant'. This is especially true when the gap in both directions is very large or there is incompetence and/or even adversarial stances between the parties. Language and communication only work if both parties are willing to understand.

Unfortunately if either is the case "actual specs and requirements formalized", while sounding logical, and might help, in my experience did very little to save any substantial project (and I've seen a lot). The common problem is that the business/client/manager is forced to sign of on formal documents far outside their domain of competence, or the engineers are straitjacketed into commitments that do not make sense or have no idea of what is considered tacit knowledge in the domain and so can't contextualize the unstated. Those formalized documents then mostly become weaponized in a mutual destructive CYA.

What I've also seen more than once is years of formalized specs and requirements work while nothing ever gets produced, and the project is aborted before even the first line of code hit test.

I've given this example before: When Covid lockdows hit there were digitization projects years in planning and budgeted for years of implementation, that were hastily specked, coded and roiled out into production by a 3 person emergency team over a long weekend. Necessity apparently has a way of cutting through the BS like nothing else can.

You need both sides capable, willing and able to understand. If not, good luck mitigating, but you're probably doomed either way.
Oh, and about the app vs web page comment, I get you. However, it's a progressive web app and can be installed. Works offline too. If you check Faye, you'll notice an install button at the top right.

> While I think you're right (generics might be useful there), it's fairly easy to wrap the `sync` primitives such as `sync.Pool` and `sync.Map` into your specific use case.

That’s not a strong argument. You can easily (but sometimes tediously) wrap any API with one that (further) restricts what types you can use with it. Generics make it possible to avoid doing that work, and code you don’t write won’t have errors.
It doesn't make any sense that he can't be brought back. Even if he's an illegal immigrant, at least he should be released as conditions in El Salvador have improved for civilians since when he was last in it.
Don't look at New Zealand. We don't have tax deductions.

New Zealand has socialised health care and socialised benefits, so there is a variable amount of government help or government money. But I'm fairly sure it is most often below what you would need. Some high needs kids might get more help.

I do know of parents that have moved to countries that have better socialised healthcare. It's a radical move but perhaps worth considering depending on your circumstances.

> breaks significantly more things

Use thrift stores, especially ones that give deep discounts for needy parents. No government will help you buy nicer things.
> Assuming this man is innocent, we should rather blame El Salvador for actually imprisoning him.

No! Trump bypassed due process intentionally and quickly (and illegally) so that the courts, which ruled it illegal, couldn't pass the ruling in time to stop the flights.

We should blame Trump and all of the chain of command beneath him that took part in it.
Its not laziness, its just a matter of priority. Like playing eve online, or doing nothing.

But really, there is what feels like an ever increasing list of 'stuff to do, things to attend', and preparing food (and sleep) are obvious time sinks to reduce, and of course people are willing and increasingly able to pay.

A recent survey (forget the link, sorry), listed time spend on food preparation / cooking nowadays as averaging out on just 28 minutes daily. Around 1980, this was still around 2.5 hours. I believe context is UK.

I easily spend 3 hours daily, because especially with a little kid I just think it is important to do, but I do also feel the weight of it.

Clearly I’m in the minority, but I found the idea awful. The execution on the exercises is good—I especially like that you mix similarly sounding words—but my first thought as soon as I read your description was that the news are a terrible, worrying choice which could be misused to push a specific agenda on learners. Lo and behold, first thing I try is Musk’s dad calling people bums. Learners shouldn’t be subjected to polarised opinions at the same time they are trying to internalise words. Use instead some neutral science channels like Veritasium, CGP Grey, or Vsauce.

What prevents the system to remember your previous choices?

Then it can assume you choice haven't changed, and propose you a solution that matches your previous choices. And to give the user control it just needs to explicitly tell the user about the assumption it made.

In fact, a smart enough system could even see when violating the assumptions could lead to a substantial gain and try convincing the user that it may be a good option this time.
Spot on. HTML, JS, and CSS deliver a clean separation of concerns—a perfect blank slate for killer products. You just need a few key pieces to tie it all together: templating with loops for repeating HTML chunks and a way to stitch in headers, footers, or sidebars. For apps, a routing system is a must. And HMR to supercharge your dev workflow. That’s Nue in a nutshell.
