The signal is also clear when interacting with adults: the people “over there” are more important. These days I was “on call” at home and had to be able to answer my phone urgently. And I hated the fact that I needed to glance at my phone a

It took us centuries to screw everything so I don’t claim any of this is simple. But we will need to start actually fixing stuff eventually, rather than adding patches.

We know the recommended minimum of 150 minutes of cardio exercise and two resistance strength training sessions per week. For many people this is unrealistic. But this is not what the research for minimum is for. There are all those “20 min

Median age of 61… 4.4 minutes of “vigorous” activity. Hard to interpret this as anything else that if you remain being able to be somehow active in your later years you will be better off. I find all of the studies of “how little exercise”

One would argue that pre-Internet people prepared more, started on easier trails or went out with experienced people first.

One one hand I understand. On the other, the idea of bringing Claude as a companion on a hiking trip makes me incredibly sad.

I’ve been there and done that, as a teenager. However that was on a computer, mobile devices are much more restricted and more secured. If there is some arcane hack to bypass these it will be known and fixed. For me the main goal is to go f

None of this is necessary. First, the only devices that actually need to be gated are cell phones. The user agent should simply send the user’s age of the parental lock is set up and the websites required to respect this. Parental controls

You are asking many readers to do substantial amount of work for something nobody potentially put any effort into. This is the fundamental imbalance. Much like answering unknown numbers, reading articles from new sources has become a time w

Imo in elementary school they should not be using computers outside of a dedicated class.

Hopefully this is not your case but as an IC the “manager, who didn’t write code for a couple of years” that decides to come back and “help” is one of the worst experiences. Code is usually subpar, uses old idioms, and comes with added pres

Turns out making a game, even with full help of the LLM power is still a massive effort most people won’t go through. Even simpler but non-trivial programs require a lot of back and forth. So in the end it will be the same kind of motivated

Online grocery shopping service I use has added recipes to their website. Not obvious slop at first reading but then you see stuff like add 600g of carrots and 100ml of water to make a quite watery soup according to the picture.

I was too, thinking about making my own apps for a lot of stuff, but for now I’m sticking to web apps because distribution on mobile is still crap.

In the early days it was pretty common to move the pointer to the active element when one started navigating with the keyboard. But yeah, it feels like somebody physically grabbing your hand and moving it.

One would imagine that the model could be shared on Android and not be part of chrome. Maybe this way it’s simpler or is compatible with regulations.

When I was a kid I wanted to go see The Avengers (the o.g. one, from 1998). I had to go to the cinema 3 times, because they would not do a projection for less than 5 people.

How would that actually work? Eventually the specification for the CPU has to be clear. For now, that means machine code.

For me nothing beats plain old classes and an external css file. For PWAs I just use lit css within the element, again with classes and plain css. If things cause problems, just figure out why and fix the classes.

Eventually maybe, but we’re not there yet. After social media became common it was also hypothesized that embarrassing stories dug up from somebody’s last would not be harmful anymore but that future has never materialized.

Having done native and web frontends, they are different. I prefer the capabilities of native frameworks but I prefer the web box model. Sizing stuff is native frameworks is nice until it isn’t.

I understood you well enough. I disagree with the idea that something that has been replaced or obsoleted does not warrant survival in general. And human creativity in particular.
