I wish everyone also felt this way about the national debt.

it should at least provide some better price to performance options once the AMD software/drivers get up to speed.

I think this sort of attitude towards hardware devices will massively limit the potential for attacks on our hardware via our ports. We should push for protocols that verify the hardware on the other end is either a known or approved device.

I code better in other languages now

I feel this one, something about spending too much time in JS makes me not want to write clean software..

Arguably memory managed languages are the same or are you speaking to some specific slice of the available programming languages?

The need for GPUs is a solid reason to stay away.

any plans to generate something for the server side? What I've been prototyping macros which wrap functions to ensure that they adhere to the behavior of an openapi spec.

an (audio)book of this would be great

the movement of large objects would seem inherently more random than the movements of individual particles

sounds contrary to law of large numbers

There is a lot more nuance to law/regulation than “if you don't like my draconian privacy and/or freedom reducing laws then you deserve no property rights!”

Its unfortunate that the proposed realms is still just a proposal. Even still I've heard many arguments that since the method of isolation lives inside JS it cannot be expected to be entirely secure and you would be much better off relying on OS level security primitives, a point that comments I've read so far completely glosses over. I'd love for someone to prove me wrong that this is air tight so we can champion realms at my work.

POLA is good to live by regardless if it can be implemented.

No one is going to risk exposing extremely valuable zero days just to root your box unless you have something really valuable on it.

Sticking around long enough to see a big mistake bite you is sometimes better for your growth than swapping jobs.

Im pretty sure its this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qo-2gDg-37w

I agree the vast majority of computer users do not get those benefits, since their main computer is their phone. Phones do not lend themselves to learning about computers, they provide sterile environments that try to get you to forget its a computer in the first place and scroll facebook instead.

I believe some environments are still beta. I have enjoyed flutter even with that limitation.

Might be more applicable in this scenario to the act of throwing out your furniture?

open timelite.app and watch the minutes you're wasting pass

You could try find various objects in the room on device and send a list of identifiers. The XR platform seems quite capable of that.

were talking about cameras that are actively scanning your room, you do realize this thing is painting a detailed 3d picture of your house right?

buying peoples data would be a big deal, that's why its not a nit picky detail. I also don't agree with facebook having all of my data in the first place but they don't just tar up my entire life and hand it to someone.

If someone is knowingly building something that wont scale is that not an accumulation of future work? I think the key point about technical debt is that units of work are not all equal in long term outcomes.

Also, how do you even know if you've improved dev productivity 25% if you haven't even improved your own functionality-delivering at any rate

It really depends on what kind of improvements you are talking about but if someone measurably decreases the time it takes me to land a PR by improving CI/CD systems then its really easy to say that such improvements massively effect developers in a positive way. Also opened ticket to landed code can be looked at more broadly and be measured and optimized, as can downtime.

I have a theory that this is just the scape goat for what is really a desire to decrease funding during the corona virus panic. Not that being over leveraged in payments companies is a good thing but it might not be the primary motivator here.

because that sentence can be read within the time span of human attention span and the problem with it easily identified.

the majority of the miles I drive are highway so for me "3 words" covers a large percentage of my usage. This is likely true of most people as well.

You kill the idea because it is so expensive, if you cannot easily reach consumers for a small amount of money then the demand side is low. It's cheaper to reach consumers who are willing to click links because they actually need a service.

One Million Followers by Brendan Kane‎ although not directly related shows similar usage of ad platforms for content testing.

network effects and customer base are much more powerful moats than choosing one technology over another or developing your own.

Given how often it is said that "build it and they will come" is an untrue trope, you would expect people instinctively know to avoid spending too much time on the build it part. I however am guilty of this myself so I can't really blame the author and think most just tend to get lost in the implementation phase because it's far too comfortable.
