If every one does this and sets their phones to DND, I'm not sure it will work to just call people back when you see they called. No one is ever going to be able to answer the phone unless they are sitting there staring at it.

Ah ok. So the server keeps track of what the client should look like and just keeps it up to date? If so that sounds like a very nice model that would make it a lot easier to get back to just using simple HTML and delegate the complexity to

Perhaps I'm arrogant, shortsighted and asinine. On the other hand, maybe it isn't so crazy to think that patterns of language do in some way represent thought and feeding lots of written language into a language model that is desi

I use WebEx, but I can use my video conferencing equipment to call into Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and Amazon Chime because they are all interoperable. This is not the case with Zoom. Standards exist for video conferencing, but Zoom refu

I haven't had any issue using WebEx for large numbers of people. Jitsi is another option that has performed well whenever I've used it. (But I haven't tried Jitsi with huge groups.)

Center Cam kind of does that, but not with a pin hole. Sometimes a dedicated monitor set back on your desk with a web cam low above the screen can help give more of a "looking in in the eyes" feel.

Yes if none of those things are problems then it isn't an issue. Just that there aren't fewer issues with having a website on your phone by a company that doesn't have a core business of letting people serve http from their p

If you are going to use cloudflare, you might as well just host the page with them. Maybe the value of running on your phone would be so people could see that your phone is up or something like that?

Running a webserver on your phone incurs all the same issues plus it might be out of range or your phone might be off. So having a webserver on your phone is actually worse.

That is very helpful. Thank you. Most of my exposure to Lisp has been Scheme and Racket and minimal at that. Are these images you describe something that is part of a particular distribution of Common Lisp?

If tapping the escape key to say you don't want to be on their mailing list is a major reason to not finish reading an essay, perhaps you aren't the target audience.

> programming from inside the system. Can you elaborate on that? I think you are saying that REPLs in other languages don't do what you can do in Lisp, but I don't think I know enough to fully understand why.

There is a lot of power in suggestion. If you get a bunch of high school students together and really start talking to them about suicide, how they shouldn't commit suicide, how to identify suicidal thoughts, etc. would it be surprisin

The white plastic just stops being able to hold the glass shelves to the metal brackets and chips/cracks until it can no longer hold weight. This is a 12 year old LG refrigerator. Decompose is probably not the right word, but it loses

I don't think so. Just a typically loaded fridge. The shelfs have metal arms and then plastic holding the glass to the metal. Structurally the weight is on the plastic though and the plastic breaks. This is on a 12 year old LG refriger

My refrigerator does just fine keeping things cold. The plastics shelves just decompose. My guess is that if they get a warranty claim based on a broken shelf they can just send one out easily. They make the things that will be hard to fix
