Ads are taking over the world because they're actually just a propaganda vehicle and control is the only thing worth money Regulation is too toothless to do anything about it so I think we'll naturally see all corporations evolve

By official stats, aviation is something like 3% of global emissions. Global emissions seem wildly underestimated while aviation emissions are pretty hard to obfuscate. I also couldn't believe when I found out a Learjet 7 seater might

The other poster took the idea you expressed - that "[crypto is] 100% speculative and nothing else" - and further explored the idea, and some markets they have seen where the price action either devolves or remains rational. What

This article seems like pandering. > Medical studies suggest that reaction times peak at 24 and go downhill from there But if this peak is by a few percent, then why would a 35 year old be bad at video games? Also, if reaction times peak

Also driving a 2021 Subaru, and I find it only rarely triggers incorrectly. The turning example you give, in my opinion, is a prime example of something really quite risky all drivers do, but it's quite simple for that person to tap th

Doesn't it seem likely the cost of the material directly relates to the size and difficulty of creating said hole in the ground?

You're the one making a non-sequitur. Capitalism is an ideology about maximizing profits. You can make a lot more profit if you externalize all your costs. "Privatize the profits, socialize the losses" is a way of saying that

As a non-Haskeller, the only tool I can think of interacting with that has any Haskell is Hasura's graphql-engine[0], which GitHub stats say is 28% Haskell (and then like 55% web languages, so I assume the backend is all Haskell and th

It's pretty clear that's serious. I find it strange you would read this as sarcasm - it's been pretty hard to miss the descent into fascism of the American right wing.

I see, "that really hasn't changed" was a statement on aerodynamics and not volume of insect collisions. Thanks, I agree with what you're saying, good tidbit about the more aerodynamic cars leading to lower probability o

> As for the license plates, they are no more aerodynamic than they were 30 years ago, which makes them a better source for insect measurement. I agree with this, but not the claim that there are studies showing this number is consistent

Looks decent, pretty minimalistic. The form / input styles should use :focus-within instead of :hover to apply styles, using "power-user" keyboard navigation with tab and such doesn't correctly show what you have focused

With respect to showing a loader, it’s a solution. Not fully sure I understand the mechanism - is it based on the class or does all content of the div with hx-trigger get replaced? Or even worse is the image still there with opacity 0? Howe

Sort of. It’s more like when you create an object, you can display the object inline immediately with a JS layer, plus show some status attribute or however deep you like. This explicitly only works with GETters and I can’t imagine how you

I think that if you’re building tools and you want to do anything nice like optimistic rendering it’s not possible in HTMX, so I always wonder what kind of user experience is actually delivered on an HTMX app

This is vaguely supported by the browser natively, although you do have to find a way to output the CSS that impacts the SVG itself. I recently made image export on some SVG charts that you could download as SVG and PNG and I was quite plea

I think the weight constraint must make it incredibly hard to fly outside of select routes; it is not trivial to build a runway which you can land and takeoff those bad boys from I can't see a world they ever build more of them in

216 million functions involving a few FP operands is going to take multiple seconds of CPU compute if the entirety of the CPU cycles were efficiently dedicated to said compute, due to the single thread nature; so I would guess yes, it'

Thanks for the detailed answer. Given the remote nature it sounds like you're killing it; I guess I have similar comp but work 1.5x as hard. Cheers!
