Is there a PGlite but like SQlite (so without a running a server), just with the PG flavor of SQL instead of Sqlite's?

> Why in 2025 can we not ship a statically typed high performance language for browsers?

Which one?

Official name is ECMAScript. Maybe it's time to drop "Javascript".

It's my understanding that even the paid version ChatGPT is highly subsidized so yeah, the prices will have to be raised quite substantially to meet profitability.

Running CI for Iphone / Ipad dev?

20 years ago the company I worked for used a Mac-Mini for video transcoding, because there was some DRM issue we had to deal with, I don't remember the specifics.

> How does Elon Musk reconcile this with his own behavior on X, personally boosting fringe people and groups?

Musk has his own agenda.

This isn't by accident. It's funny however how both sides are ignoring the foreign networks aimed at their own camp.

I have a better idea to solve the western "homeless crisis", tax your salary and capital gains much more to finance affordable public housing construction. That way, nobody dies in some hazardous shack you think should be allowed to be built by slum lords. Done.

Your "solutions" are so cynical you really want homeless people to die.

Making people live in slums/shacks isn't a solution to the western "homeless crisis".

This website has been often prone to "social justice" recently, I'm amazed somebody can get away with such an idiotic comment without being flagged to hell.

Houses are "carefully planed" because you don't want poor people to die in them due to poor construction, carbon monoxide when they need heat during winter, or a fire that would spread to other houses due to cheap materials, that's why,you know, the stuff that happens regularly in third world slums, but you can't fathom that fact.

Never heard of her name before, but I certainly heard of the game she developed, like many here. RIP to a prolific game programmer.

> by using JavaScript instead

I think you're entirely missing the point of RSS by saying that. RSS doesn't and should require NOT Javascript.

Now feeds could somehow be written in some bastard HTML5 directly, but please don't bring Javascript in that debate.

XSLT allows to transform a XML document into an HTML presentation, without the need for javascript, that's its purpose.

Well Jobs obviously took risks, way more than Cook ever did. But Yes, Silicon was absolutely the right move, incredible performance leap, at an accessible price (but one could argue it's more of a failure from Intel). Now from a "culture re-definition" perspective, nothing is going to top what Apple did in the 80's and what they did again in the 2000's with the iPhone.

Eagle Eye too, with Shia LaBeouf, although people in that story are constrained into doing specific small tasks, not knowing for whom, why or what is the endgame.

I actually like that plot device.

> Thanks god. The days people kept inventing new JS frameworks or even dialects (coffeescript, remember?) every three months couldn't be gone fast enough.

Coffeescript helped Javascript to evolve the right way, so in retrospect, it was absolutely a good thing. It's like people here don't remember the days of ES3 or ES5...

And the days? Remember Typescript right now? Typescript is not Javascript.

Especially when Google largely has the money to maintain the alleged unsecure library... of course it's an excuse to break the web once again.

XSLT is fantastic. You just feed it an XML file and it can change it into HTML, without any need for javascript.

I wouldn't be surprised if a few weeks later, Amazon was investing $38B in NVIDIA for new server processors... like nothing to see here folks, totally not a giant circular bubble...

Taxes are used to take down a large criminal network using fake social media accounts.

Most people don't even know they exist (I do not count webapps in a native shell as PWA). that's the biggest issue with PWA in my experience. People aren't using them.

Or just use an alternative, and there are plenty of them in that segment, no need for the legislator to do anything here.

If someone could help me reverse engineer the Zoom ARQ96 firmware in order to fix the stupid LFO mod amount implementation (LFO is basically unusable), add velocity note control to the step sequencer, and why not, add basic USB MIDI Input recording support, and ideally, a chord mode, it would be great...

https://zoomcorp.com/en/us/digital-instruments/digital-instr...

For the LFO mod amounts I imagine the values are hardcoded somewhere, so it shouldn't be that hard. Adding a new UI for velocity levels or a chord mode would be more complex though. Even better if there was a Zoom engineer around here who could guide me a bit...

Management thinks a crutch can effectively replace people massively in sensitive knowledge work. When that crutch starts making errors that cost those businesses millions, or billions, well, hopefully management who implemented all that will get fired...

Yes, LLM are useful, but they are even less trustworthy than real humans, and one needs actual people to verify their output, so when agents write 100K lines of code, they'll make mistakes, extremely subtle ones, and not the kind of mistake any human operator would make.

The article was all good until he started to use react for implementation. I would not have done that for an article about web standards, and I use react all the time.

> From a Latin American perspective, racism seems to be a rising thing in the "old world" (i.e. northern hemisphere, east of the Atlantic).

Plenty of racism in India, Pakistan, China, MENA (where slavery is common, Libya has open air black slave markets), and Africa itself. And let's not even get started how plenty of these places are ravaged by petty sectarian, ethnical violence, or straight out civil wars between communities.

You just don't hear about all that because most of these places don't have a free press, or people are too busy trying to survive another day to testify.

There are at least 4/5 genocides happening right now in Africa & MENA, and I don't include whatever is going on in Gaza, can you name them?

Companies like that will always tried once they believe they are captured enough market shares. If I can influence that kind of decision, I will certainly advocate not to renew Synology gear parcs...

That's fantastic IMHO, it guarantees competent engineers decades of work to fix all the bad code deployed, eventually. Let's not even get started on performance optimization jobs.

We will always have a problem to solve. Isn't it the point of Asimov's story, "The Last Question"?

What's the meaning of this? Is Google trying to make content creators tell their viewers not to use adblockers? I don't think it's easylist's problem here. I don't understand.

It's my understanding that emails have headers, just like http responses, and the app might have displayed that fake header instead of verifying the provenance of the email and displaying where it actually came from. So it is a UI/UX issue.

Yet here we are, and the civil right act passed. On the other hand, The allies humiliating the Germans with the Versailles Treaty led to World War II.

The people who want retribution are never the ones to listen after an armistice.

> The confederates should have been punished, publicly.

No, it would have led to decades or centuries of resentment between the north and the south and eventually another civil war among those lines. It would have destroyed the union for good. The only purpose of the civil war for the North was to save the union, humiliating the south would have ensured that it would never really happen.
