To "get" HTMX, you have to think server-first. State is persisted on the server and all state-change logic is performed on the server (often triggered by http requests from a "dumb" client). If you hang on to "possi

"framework can decide what to do with it" sounds like a feature (more flexibility) but is actually often the source of errors and bugs. A single, consistent, canonical response, generated by the server, taking into account all rel

And who's liable if I pay a testing center to properly administer an important test that will heavily impact my future, and during such test a phone rings, another phone's alarm goes off, and another phone gets a series of audio n

Kinda irrelevant, since 12 isn't really a round number (like 10 would be). Further, the article is essentially saying that there is far less difference between 11 and 13 than might be assumed by a categorical model that says one level

The article says "average daily peak concentrations of PM2.5 dropped by 3.05 µg/m³. For context, background pollution levels in the region typically hover around 8-9 µg/m³, making this reduction particularly significant for p

just curious - if they went through the process of providing sealable bags and (I assume) verifying the bags were in fact sealed - why not go one step further and require the sealed phones to all be placed in a bucket which could then be ta

> the calculation is straightforward Ok then, make it easy - your requirement is to independently pick 4 numbers from the range 0 to 9, without resulting in any duplicates. Which is more likely to be successful: - pick 4 random digits in

It's not a "limitation", he's saying there is much, much, much less chance of having any collisions with ULIDs - one in a million vs one in a trillion

I dont think this holds up. Define "near each other" in an 80-bit random space. Further, the likelihood of a potential conflict is offset by the fact that you have far fewer "initial random positions" instead of every si

Under what circumstances is it prone to conflicts? On separate threads/hosts/processes, id's created within the same millisecond would be differentiated by the 80 bits of randomness (more than UUID v7).

Doesn't really matter the type of doctor, spending all their time on revenue-generating activities would seem to be better than only 75% generating revenue and 25% on "administrative and bureaucratic tasks" that don't ge

Problem with this analogy is that software development != revenue. The developers and IT are a cost center. So yea in a huge org one of the goals is to reduce costs (admin) spent on supporting a cost center. Doctors generate revenue directl

Honestly, this comment sounds like someone dismissing the internet in 1992 when the web was all text-based and CompuServe was leading-edge. No "revelatory tech" just yet, but it was right around the corner.

Have you ever double-checked (in human fashion, not just using another calculator) the output from a calculator? When calculators were first introduced I'm sure some people such as scientists and accountants did exactly that. Calculato

What's more important - "redistribution of wealth" or simply reducing the percentage of people living in abject poverty? And wouldn't you agree that by that measure, most of the world, including its largest countries, ha

But wouldnt these spreadsheets be tracking something like total revenue? If a doctor is spending time on admin tasks instead of revenue-generating procedures, obviously the hospital has accountants and analysts who will notice this, yes? I&

Or maybe, consumer volume is dropping precipitously as more and more people rely on non-upgradable mobile devices, while competition is ramping up, and monopolistic sales channels, (i.e. Amazon), take a larger share of revenue?

This brand has existed for what, 20+ years? You dont think they can look at long-term trendlines of revenue and expenses? Please explain how this is "short term" thinking.

Perhaps in this very basic case they are exactly the same but is that still true if you add secondary WHERE conditions that apply to just one table, or if one "table" is actually a view with a complex query definition, or many oth

The example uses the syntax FROM person AS p, gender AS j WHERE p.gender_id = j.gender_id Isn't it preferable to be explicit? Does some of the inefficiency come from lack of explicitness? FROM person as p INNER JOIN gen

Yup. "Big data" "data mining" "machine learning" On the other hand "personalized ads" is still going strong despite the entire concept being offensive.

His primary dislike for cable television was the amount of "garbage" it offered, while seemingly ignoring that Netflix also has plenty, if not more. > But it doesn't matter... they're all available at once I'm so

Many of the most popular streaming shows were originally aired on broadcast TV (which most people watched via cable) - The Office, Friends, West Wing, Big Bang Theory, etc. Or originally for cable channels - Breaking Bad, Walking Dead, Suit

Always assuming every single thing can be improved - and expecting huge corporate entities to do it - seems like a recipe for failed expectations. Cable TV wasn't perfect, of course, but it was pretty damn good, especially in allowing

In the short-term, absolutely. Problem is that the points are permanent- so the first person to answer a question, based on the current standards in 2008 or whatever, got hundreds or thousands of points and that answer is still at the top d

Why the workers and not the customers, let's say? Workers have little risk, they get paid a salary regardless of the company's fortunes (unless the company is so awful it goes out of business). The customers who believed in the co
