You're right.

It's now ASD or "Autism Spectrum Disorder" and it much better describes the broad range of impacts the disability can have because it really is a spectrum; all the way from non-verbal to the mild, but real impact it has on social development, communication and interactions and putting a label on it means access to help

Could it be? Could 2026 be the year of linux on the desktop?

My guess? implicit behaviours are always more valuable than explicit behaviours, so when implicit engagement became the metric and measurable, Facebook didn't need people to deliberately engage with content to determine its value

Also..

* In that time we moved from desktop to mobile; clicking that tiny button was difficult on mobile and they couldn't replace it with a comparable mechanic

* Changes to third-party cookie and XHR rules in browsers made the data less reliable

We should've never let marketing in the door honestly, all of the product names for the big three are awful.

Microsoft CDN

There, that's it. You're selling it to (hopefully) technical people

Nope, the other times it's CORS

To echo everyone else

Same, I spend an inordinate amount of time in mermaid, and I just can't see a reason for D2 over Mermaid especially when you can write a single Markdown doc and jump in between code, prose and diagrams as simply as

```mermaid ```

```typescript ```

That's clearly Turkish, which would make sense for an obelisk in an ancient site in Turkey, not Thailand

As a parent of pre and actual teens, this isn't "becoming", it is the de facto standard. Minecraft, Roblox, Fortnite are our kids' third place https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_place

Yes!

Parc Guell https://parkguell.barcelona/ and La Padera https://www.lapedrera.com/en are must sees for Gaudi

I'll happily pay the premium for "it just works", especially device switching iPhone to iPad to MacBook to Apple TV, it works first time, every time. I have a pair of Sony XM5s, and even at that price point, pairing and device switching can be a crapshoot some of the time.

Bluetooth honestly feels like a non-deterministic stack sometimes, it even took Apple 4 years to support it on the iPhone, how they have the AirPods working is close to magic.

> I wish technology is not blocked that easily.

It's not technology that's being blocked here, it's uncompetitive commercialisation that is (at least in the EU)

Wonderful idea

Inexplicable price point

To be honest, I'm a little envious of you. The tradition of cyberpunk in books is deep and extensive, and you'll start seeing how the books written in the late 70s and 80s are still SO influential today.

They always struck me as a weird niche, as vegetarian food for non-vegetarians.

Most vegetarians I know don't touch "fake meat" because the appearance of it being "real" is enough to put them off of it, the value prop is actually a negative to that market, so you're left with an addressable market of trying to convince non-vegetarians that the ultra processed tofu and/or fungus patty that looks like a hamburger is as good as a hamburger, and as accomodating as I can be, it's just not.

Quickly? London is one of the most CCTV covered cities in the world, and has been since the 70s

As shocking as this is, it's not _surprising_

> Sounds a bit like a fancier ngrok.

Well, yes and no.

You can use it like ngrok, and I'm sure you could configure wireguard and ngrok to give you something similar to what Tailscale does, but Tailscale does it out of the box, with polished and well built client and server apps.

I'm no infra guy, I'm just a former front-end eng, but it gives me the confidence to expose media centres and file servers etc to "the wild" without it being public.

Using Jellyfin to watch content from my home server on my iPad while I'm away from home is as "easy" as Disney or Netflix with Tailscale, just installed the clients and servers and .. voila?

That is a series of words I never thought I'd see together

Is this a software or hardware patent, because afaics the sensors on the newer Watches would already support this so it could just be a software update?

Think you nailed TikTok's magic sauce, that algorithm finely balances the ghettoization of most traditional social networks and the "you might like this" randomness that feels like it's two-steps of interest away from your usual feed. Any regular user will see that pattern of 10-15 things that fit a pattern, and then a couple of very clear pieces of tracer content that expands and reinforces your own FYP.

It shows an understanding and adoption of risk that most western social networks don't have, while they're too invested in supporting and reinforcing the status quo, TikTok has always felt a little more willing to find the edges of/expand your interests.

Maybe the argument is accessibility, Disney is much more approachable and likely to get the kids invested and involved than Shakespeare and is worth the cost?

Or they could just do Hamlet with Lions

Impressive, but this is one of those "if this is public knowledge, how far ahead is the _not_ public knowledge" things

Wonderfully executed joke. 10pts.

The keys here for me...

> After probably a good year of writing Rust and Svelte, it dawned on me that our users didn't benefit from any of this.

> With days and often weeks on end being spent on adding absolutely no direct value

> these last weeks I've felt very productive again, building new features, improving existing ones, updating the UI, fixing stupid bugs. I also really enjoy working more closely with my colleagues who use the application all day, every day and figuring out how I can make the product better for them.

Rails is GREAT at solving PRODUCT problems very quickly and very effectively. In the right place there is nothing better at building _products_ or making engineers incredibly productive.

It's not the only tool in the toolbox, but it's always been one of the best to solve early applications and proofs of concept

Because Rails solves problems the others don't.

Also,

1. Spring outdates Rails (2002 v 2007)

2. Go is a language, Rails is a platform, Ruby is the language. Ruby and Go solve for different problems, Go doesn't have a singular web application framework to compare well to Rails

3. Node is a runtime, not a language or a platform. There's no direct comparison there.

A battle of a Tumblr user named Woodsfae versus advanced LLM transcribing new goth literature?

That's like bringing a knife to a gun fight my friend, never underestimate the power of a committed Tumblr user

There's a name I haven't heard in many years

First thing that came to mind was the song-lines of Indigenous Australians, they code long journeys through country through narratives and songs, it's the macro form of this research

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Songline

Yeah, it's the same here in Australia.

Massive basketball (top 5 domestic league, huge NBA market) but baseball is relegated to a 2-month semi-pro competition in front of maybe a thousand people.

Which is a shame, a lot of the enjoyment (some of it, I'm a Cubs fan, I get enjoyment out of baseball where I can) I get out of Baseball is the same as Cricket

To me it was dystopian in all the ways a good Black Mirror episode is, a future where humans are falling in love with LLMs is not a utopian outcome
