We do, but 99.9999% of the people doing the work won't meaningfully experience any benefit from doing so. So we never do. Nothing will change that other than enfranchising your people, other than upsetting the top-down hierarchy.

There's the guy on my team who is steaming mad at Sindre Sorhus for making all his npm packages ESM only. https://gist.github.com/sindresorhus/a39789f98801d908bbc7ff3... The time line is a little more compressed.

It should be legendary how much better humans are at long term planning than corporations. Yet more heaping mounds of proof. Humans consider their bodies & what might happen with far more realism than corporate naivety and reckless opt

This feels like it has to be a federal matter. It's impossible to imagine every state picking & choosing how it runs it's own international diplomatic ties. It would be too cruel to make the US into 50 different states everyon

Immoral & wrong to use possible security threats as excuses to secure devices against their owners. There have to be escape hatches. It has to be the user's device. Mitm your own traffic is a right. It's my traffic, not yours.

This can help places that used to be cloudier, but also, a good % of the world already was mostly bright sunny days. The people already hot, my guess would be, will not see a big amount of upside here. Places decreasingly temperate will see

The outside chance that maybe there was an afternoon once was hotter than the absurd heights we are reaching seems irrelevant. The odds of there being such years keeps shrinking, and is already below there being a one in a million chance of

Certificate pinning is one of the most user-hostile security inventions we've created. It makes it so hard to get access to the traffic coming out of your own device, which heavens, seems like such an elementary ask.

Yeah we are very differently aligned. To me, there's The Cluetrain Manifesto as gospel, preaching that giving people great capabilities & connectivity & letting us tinker & explore & meddle around unlocks all the intere

Start with protocols for handling the data well. Then figure out what flows work. Start at the bottom with what already is, with what is concrete & true, and build forward from that. I both want us to be careful & considerate, but a

By far the best article about where we are today that I've seen! The idea of the internet as a body that has gone comatose, that isn't really reacting or changing, is a good metaphor for me, matches my feelings. There's still

No one is willing to give up control. Unlike the PC era where the computer was the user's, all these systems are part of various walled gardens. Really excellent loved cared for neat experiences just don't happen in corporate isol

It'll be interesting to see what comes next. Certainly they want to ship lots of big fancy awesome high margin things. But I'm worried that AMD is at a crossroads & is making more and more sacrifices that make the tech inacces

Writing TypeScript can be a bit hard or difficult at times. You can definitely get sucked into battles trying to figure out a lot of dumb shit that obviously works great but that you need to contort to something TypeScript can grok. Some of

It'll be interesting to see if this repeats. I have a little bit of sympathy for eliminating a 6 year old wifi router, largely because it was built around some Qualcomm chipsets on what was probably at that time a 2+ year old linux ker

This is just what corporatism is. Directionless ever shifting Objectives and Key Results (OKR) and forever chasing the New Addressable Market (NAM). There's plenty of believers & folks fighting for causes, but no real overall motiv

Three phase to the home?! Whaattt?! If you want to rectify yourself some DC power, 3-phase is awesome. Are there three phase sockets available? I'd think you could build things like high power audio amplifiers or power supplies at radi

What a lovely board. Extremely capable with a great CPU, huge memory bandwidth, and a ton of I/O especially via Thunderbolt. The other comments are pervasively negative, but there's nothing else one can get that will be anywhere n

Most RK3588 boards are $120+. I would not be surprised to find this is indeed 5X+ more computer. And in a very small package compared to 5X arm sbc.

Kind of the end of history. There's just so much longer periods for consoles. You're stuck with what you ship for a long time, the memories keep enduring, the next thing isn't right over the hill.

Mostly around $5000. Seen a $1000 and a $2000. I wonder how long prices will stay up there. I wonder what mind of hardware is packed in here. Bigger battery, bigger microphone, how miniatiruzes are the chips, how much DSP processing is ther

Kind of/almost a good thing. More and more security processors seem to have irrevocable keys or other non-user setups. It's. Just. Not. OK. And more and more governments are making demands about decrypting users data on demand, ab

Thank you! Yes and!: > but so much of what we do is common that if it isn't declarative we're repeating a lot of effort. We're not only repeating effort, we're also using artisinal approaches to wiring things up. Ha

I absolutely think the team will largely fix the performance issues. And I think Flutter will, after that, go on to be a successful-with-developers but terrible-for-everyone else beast. The submission early on links the wonderful "HTML

Yeah it is! I meant to cite that too. It's mentioned by Catalyst as inspiration, somewhere.

Catalyst is great. Definitely active, actively used, last updates in main were late February. They have a big 2.0 branch that has a ton of internal changes. TypeScript 5.0 finally updated to support modern @decorator syntax & they'

One of those really great & powerful things about webapps being built on the DOM. The DOM is flexible & malleable & we can sculpt our own experience. It's a broadly pro-user capability that native apps categorically lack. T
