I agree with state management being the culprit. But the most-hyped solution nowadays seems to be: "We'll just ignore frontend state, whatever the consequences for user experience. We'll just say this is how HTML/CRUD was always supposed to work and that will make it fine. [Appeal to authority]"
Yes, but I am not aware of an existing proxy implementation that would accept JMAP requests and forward these to a CalDAV server, or the other way round.

What I do know for sure is that it‘s feasible for a calendar server to service both JMAP for Calendars and CalDAV. All our work in that regard is open-source in the Cyrus server [1] and is used at Fastmail.

Apart from the exchange protocol one also needs to convert between iCalendar and the data structures used in JMAP. For this, I am currently working on an IETF RFC [2]. Anyone also interested in implementing conversion between iCalendar and JSCalendar, please contact me! We have a test suite for interoperation tests.

There’s also the classic magnetic levitation of bugs:

The author is as far as I know the only physicist to receive both a Nobel prize (for graphene) and an Ignoble prize (for levitating small animals), and he has commented that he’s equally proud of both.

(He’s also published a non-popsci physics paper about the experiment for those interested, and there are YouTube videos of the experiment.)

That may be part of why they think Go sucks, but it is mostly because Go doesn't have many features to paper over poor design decisions. "Advanced" languages let you throw any old gobbledygook at them, and when you finally realize you screwed up, you can just monkey patch (or whatever feature of the day the language has) your way out of it and call it a day. Go is far less forgiving. You have to get the design right or pain will ensue. And pain does ensue for those who try it after being accustomed to having leeway in haphazard design, and thus they conclude Go sucks instead of acknowledging that their design sucks.

I mean, Go does suck. Maybe a language should be accommodating to bad designs. But still, those shouting "Go sucks" from the rooftops never seem to be willing to bring introspection into where they might have failed. It's always someone else's fault. (Something not limited to the case of Go, of course)

> China's use of social reputation scores in denying government services

Be skeptical of what you read in Western media when it comes to non-Western countries (especially China).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Credit_System

"There has been a widespread misconception that China operates a nationwide and unitary social credit "score" based on individuals' behavior, leading to punishments if the score is too low. Media reports in the West have sometimes exaggerated or inaccurately described this concept.[4][5][6] In 2019, the central government voiced dissatisfaction with pilot cities experimenting with social credit scores. It issued guidelines clarifying that citizens could not be punished for having low scores and that punishments should only be limited to legally defined crimes and civil infractions. As a result, pilot cities either discontinued their point-based systems or restricted them to voluntary participation with no major consequences for having low scores.[4][7] According to a February 2022 report by the Mercator Institute for China Studies (MERICS), a social credit "score" is a myth as there is "no score that dictates citizen's place in society".[4] ...

There has been a degree of misreporting and misconceptions in English-language mass media due to translation errors, sensationalism, conflicting information and lack of comprehensive analysis.[6][43][111][44][119] Examples of such popular misconceptions include a widespread misassumption that Chinese citizens are rewarded and punished based on a numerical score (social credit score) assigned by the system, that its decisions are taken by AI and that it constantly monitors Chinese citizens.[7][111][39][120][4][5] ... Academic Vincent Brussee writes that as of 2023, "hundreds of headlines have discussed the system, but few have systematically broken down what the [social credit system] is and how it works. Some studies refer to the 'breathtaking' ambition of the system and the 'massive quantities of behavioural data' going into the system without substantiating these claims in any way. Others rely on assumptions of what the system will look like, erroneously speculating that everyone will receive a social credit score, that this score will be publicly available, and that a bad rating will have far-reaching consequences. It is like a game of Chinese Whispers gone wrong."[16]: 40"
My CalDAV provider is ZOHO.

To sync with Android I use DAVX5 which runs a background sync service (open source and non-root). I had a lot of issues getting it working, could be because of different CalDAV implementations. DAVX5 to ZOHO calendar sync takes forever.

Evolution on Ubuntu has pretty good CalDAV support, but it would refresh the entire calendar each time upon switchin between the mail view and calendar view. Refreshing that ZOHO calendar takes forever and ZOHO has pretty frugal rate limits, so it ends up soft-banning me.

Latest Thunderbird has a CaldDAV incompatibility where it expects a different HTTP success code. ZOHO gives a 200, but Thunderbird expects something else. (PS Thunderbird CalDAV code is written in JS). PS This only happens on the second calendar. Whenever you add a second one, it starts failing.

So it is quite a pain, at least with ZOHO.
I doubt they got 20x.

Actually the more I’ve gone in my career the more I’ve realized we underestimate the cost of changes. Getting vendors to change a single line of code can be incredible amounts of money.
It depends where you live, but a lot of countries make you pay glass bottles now ; a fee that you get back once you take the empty bottle back to the supermarket.

> It isn't a law of nature that the endowment must always grow.

But it is the nature of endowments that you must follow the explicit spending guidelines that almost always accompany them. A university cannot just "spend they money", because the money is earmarked for certain things and often includes certain guidance on timelines.

We could keep the same teaching offerings, my main gripe is with the assignments/examinations. It just feels wrong to complain about students using AI while at the same time continuing to hand out tasks that are trivial to solve using AI.

I also worked for the faculty for the better part of my university studies, and I know that ultimately changing the status quo is most likely impractical. There are not enough resources to continuously grade open-ended assignments for so many students and they probably need the pedagogical pressure to learn fundamentals. Still makes me a bit bitter from time to time.
No, and I think the gccrs project is great and a sign that the language is maturing. I'm just saying that LLVM was chosen instead of GCC to build the official Rust compiler for very good technical reasons, and that ought to worry GCC.
Every episode is just "What if people are forced to wear IoT butt plugs?" or something ridiculous stretched over an episode.
It has become vastly more ubiquitous, probably by several orders of magnitude. More of it ends up in the environment than is broken down, so it's still accumulating. It's moving up throughout the food chain.

We've certainly seen evidence of hormone disruption caused by some plastifiers. I suspect many more negative effects will become more apparent as time goes on and "dosage" increases in various organisms.
The outline algorithm didn't succeed because it was too complicated and hard to understand for the common case.

You can define your own styles and have a similar behaviour.
Most of the people in the photos seem be ordinary, working class people. Even buddhist monks, who swore to live in poverty, celibacy and to avoid food that was too flavorful.

It isn't like we don't have records of ordinary people, even the homeless, or criminals. It's more like people like you claim the existence of a whole another kind of "poor people", who were supposedly the absolute majority, who suffered somewhere, completely ignored by everybody, and worked long hours every day on... being poor? It just doesn't seem to add up.
> And that’s a bad thing

Why?

You’ve given no argument that this actually is “abuse”
If you wanted finger-positioning data for how millions of different people fold thousands of different shirts, where would you go looking for that dataset?

My point is just that the availability of training data is vastly different between these cases. If we want better AI we're probably going to have to generate some huge curated datasets for mundane things that we've never considered worth capturing before.

It's an unfortunate quirk of what we decide to share with each other that has positioned AI to do art and not laundry.
In case you were actually looking for an answer to your question, it's in the article:

> To test in Firefox with the new behavior, set layout.css.h1-in-section-ua-styles.enabled to false in about:config.

Gbd article doesn't specify how to test in Chrome (probably something in chrome://flags), but you can read the deprecation warnings dumped into your console. You may need to enable them in your default log level. If so, there may be a lot of other behaviour that you'll probably want to fix.
That doesn't make it okay.
Huh, the change seems reasonable, though changing defaults is always going to create friction. I always thought H1 looked the same no matter what context.
Yaml is the language nobody needed. All we wanted was a better JSON format that supports comments and doesn’t crash with an extra comma as the end of a list, eg: [1,2,3,]
Win32 is an API, while UNIX, NT and GNU are all operating systems made by AT&T, Microsoft and the GNU Project respectively. I agree that the GNU operating system isn't the UNIX operating system, and I agree that the NT operating system isn't the Win32 API, but I have no idea what comparison you're trying to draw.

It almost sounds like you think UNIX is an API like Win32, and that GNU is an operating system which "implements UNIX" like NT is an operating system which "implements Win32"? Are you confusing UNIX with POSIX?

GNU was made to replace UNIX, not to promote it.
The deglobalization is happening anyway if you believe Peter Ziehan. Biden implemented policies to start the deglobalization despite trumpers claiming he was a globalist.

in a certain stage of history, some theorists also had 'reimagined' socialism

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utopian_socialism

one of them 'disappointed by the lack of results of his writing (he had hoped they would guide society towards social improvement), he attempted suicide in despair'

"The philosophers have only interpreted the world, in various ways. The point, however, is to change it"
I disagree, because they show the characters inside the computer simulation experiencing the world. They're conscious beings, and there's a big fight between the two main characters related to that existence, with both deciding to mind upload at the end for starting a new life together. You might disagree that simulated characters can ever be conscious in the real world, but there's plenty of fictional stories where the simulated characters are conscious, this being one of them.

As such, it doesn't matter what the substrate is for this story. The technology allows a kind of conscious life after death where people can choose to live life differently than they previously did.
While I agree on hierarchical headings, I don't think H1...H6 are the right tools. These represent absolute levels, we would need a means to express "level+1". I think a H tag with no digit would better convey the meaning "heading of the right level as defined by the surrounding SECTION tags".

Dude you can't just quote a fraction of a sentence and then argue against that fragment. Read the whole sentence. The part about how "the vendor could make their toolchain proprietary" is kinda important.
We are observing uptick in colon cancers. One of the theories is that microplastics might be contributing to it
How do you define that? If I write a 'Hello World' program in C++, you could argue that the hard part of compiling, linking, and generating assembly code was done by a computer, so programming is 90% automated, even though most people would understand the automation level to be 0%.

You might argue this is a flawed example, but we've automated huge workflows at work that turned major time-consuming PITAs into something it wouldn't occur to most people that a human has anything to do with it.
Absolutely not an exaggeration. I have encountered masters students who balked at the idea of opening a file in Python, despite that ostensibly being their language of choice for a machine learning class. The concept of where the data physically resided was also a mystery to them
AFAIK it's one of those W3C versus WHATWG/browser vendor things. The spec has an algorithm, no browser actually implements it faithfully, and when browsers were still competing with each other nobody was going to break half the web to be spec compliant. The problem started decades ago (https://html5accessibility.com/stuff/2022/04/05/12-years-bey...).
The difficult part is that microplastics are so widespread that it's difficult/impossible to even find a control.

There really isn't an animal alive that doesn't have some degree of microplastics in their body.

Well, not conpletely Emperor’s New Clothes: after I got my basic chess clock, I asked for skeuomorphic changes…I got a fantastic “next steps” summary in return…but when I said “Go on ahead, your choice,” it created an incompatible dependency nest trying to add clicky sounds.

Gemini actually dug me out of it, though, with additional prompting (this kind of surprised me; I assumed I’d have to eventually really step in). After all that distraction, though, I had to reset the convo to get it to focus on the files again.

The linked post relies on the Datastar project, which requires use of `unsafe-eval` in one’s Content-Security-Policy [1]:

> When using a Content Security Policy (CSP), unsafe-eval must be allowed for scripts, since Datastar evaluates expressions using an IIFE (Immediately Invoked Function Expression).

The project itself links to Mozilla’s docs on CSP, which state:

> The unsafe-eval keyword can be used to override this behavior, and as with unsafe-inline, and for the same reasons: developers should avoid unsafe-eval.

Out of the box, htmx uses a similar approach, but one can disable this use of eval [2]:

htmx.config.allowEval - can be set to false to disable all features of htmx that rely on eval:

- event filters
- hx-on: attributes
- hx-vals with the js: prefix
- hx-headers with the js: prefix

Remember: The people who would supposed to benefit from a rollout like this are the website operators, not Firefox. The change is happening; I doubt Mozilla is going to reverse course because a couple websites look a little wonky (totally reasonable).

How would they report it? "Hey, your website looks weird. Yeah I'm running Firefox 138 stable and I'm in the 5% experimental group who received the default h1 styling change"?

What is more likely to happen is: A website might get a report, the dev goes to reproduce it, and they're in the control group, so they can't; and because it was only one or two reports, it gets closed.
