A blog post, saying blogs still need RSS, without a human discoverable RSS feed.

I'd post a comment pointing this out, but a 'Discuss' link to a 3rd party site, not part of the blog, remark.as tells me I need to login to write.as

At this point I conclude the writer's failing to drink their own coffee let alone eat any dog food.

Do you take time to proofread and make sure your blog content is just right? If so, why not for the Spanish version?

Blacklists are an antithesis of an open web.

If that's where you stand, be frank that's what it is.

As long as the journey contains ethics (no Spinoza pun intended) from DRM to discarded children.

The axioms in Ethics took me an hour and I still wasn't happy.

Assigning an ID to every single element means never encountering a problem? I imagine that results in everything being a special case, much of the point of CSS missed, and in this special case Tailwind might even work as it's consistent with everything being a mess.

You don't need to give every div and container a unique ID. Why ever do that? Many things never need their own ID.

Are tons of divs and containers needed? When I find myself needing containers I usually find out I've not been thinking about arrangement very well.

That's a shame, and bad use of htmx, these examples shouldn't be showcase examples.

It takes careful but not extraordinate thinking to think of ways to get consistent results with or without JavaScript turned on. Indeed, when a visitor hits a site for the first time they get the full response so everything for a graceful degradation should already be there to use. If I can figure it out, I'm sure big CS brains can.

Remember two things:

Investors invest in a vision and people/teams. You're an employee, not the funded team. You may feel you're more than a wage taker, do the investors agree you are not a fungible coder?

Development isn't that hard. Hard CS gets done in environments that are not about pushing to market, that's commercial coding, mainly doing not hard stuff in a new environment. What's hard is linking everything, code, customers, vision, offline... The code is the essential but not that hard bit. Plus, are you blinkered to your contribution so much you cannot observe the vision. Just a coder doing the predictive, doable part where elsewhere chaos needs to be lived in.

Ask yourself these questions.

Surely they reduce cost. Otherwise they'd not be used. A donkey and cart's cheaper than a haulage truck, but donkeys aren't used much in the haulage business anymore.

I feel the someone might argue suggests that's not T.E. Eliot... but...

At the time there was a sizable movement not on political lines but one of emergent sociology that people could be conditioned en masses by (it seemed largely assumed) by conditioning. Take the book Walden Two written by B.F. Skinner during WWII years, (or Living Walden Two documenting places where it was tried and failed) of conditioning altruistic and intelligent societies, the not working out due to the positivist view of social truth, rather than social 'truth' being a much more dynamic, and endogenously generated, concept, perhaps, is it really ontologically 'is'. And to circle back on learning/reflection in technology, much effort being applied in AI to assist in grasping such 'truths' as repeating mistakes of the past (especially LLMs missing verticals of specialist knowledge), however I diverge.

Book recommendation:

Walden Two, B.F.Skinner

Living Walden Two, Hilke Khulman

Hotline to Marx, he might like to add this detail.

I would have said they also have procurement departments that did have a clue so one wasn't needed, but now it's more likely procurement has been outsourced to Accenture who do it for highest fee, paying for the convincing PPTs and golf, and lowest Accenture branded service center cost, paying $900/month fully loaded average across the team - the struggling 'knowledge workers' that know neither your company nor its specific needs.

Think of the unexpected unknowns. The feet of your chairs having light sensors, each tile of a roof having its own ambient vibration monitors, a thermostat on every bookcase shelf, all self organising around the you GooFaceAI determines you to be.

Seconded.

Completely tangental: Higher air pressure makes me feel happier.

When choosing a company I often check their about pages, checking who they really are, etc.

I came across Namecheap's affiliate marketing program, and they really seemed to treat affiliate marketers like shit. Now, think what you want about marketing, but as a business I'm for treating any business partner with respect, and if you don't like affiliate marketers then don't have the program, but don't have the program then abuse them, especially small time ones.

So, yes, there is something wrong with Namecheap. Perhaps it manifests itself in areas outside their marketing programs too, YMMV, it was enough for me to not go forward with them, an incompatible corporate culture.

In abandoning Gandi due to recent changes, I've been quite happy with Netim, also France based.

I've also been happy with Purelymail for email. More than happy.

16 bits is fine if thinking about discrete devices in the home.

But what about thinking about the next step, neurons in the home. 65k's on the low side for home neuron count.

It really doesn't matter if your part of the ocean didn't make it to the boiling committee.

The one thing that mattered was more address space. 4 billion addresses are not enough for the world. Anything else in ip6 is nice to have but falls off a cliff of importance and naval gazing that, if really of even nearly comparable significance, would be better directed to ipX or whatever's next.

IP6 is already facilitating connectivity for billions. Globally. That's a pretty major thing, more so than renditions of doing it my way.

Expecting a convergent series is bad logic.

I email short notes to myself.

As notes are not a collections of facts but interlinkages of ideas I then take time to sit and put them together with a keyboard then save in a directory tree.

I email myself an encrypted .tar.gz of the directory tree at the end of the day.

Software is Zettlr.

If Amazon's heralding something more general, I'm curious what a move to ARM will do to server side async and sync/async trade-off with waiting tasks/io. Less potential point if 20 threads/cores can be had for the price of 1?

Or, what they've changed to take advantage of the difference.

While there are probably more modern servers around now than ever before, from browsing serverhunter.com there seem to be a couple of cliffs where older CPUs gets rarer, one at 2017 and one at 2014.

Yes.

But not in a store.

Be aware you might be sending personal information. And you'd be doing so unencrypted.

You could still use a static site by having a form that writes to a DB, or replace the DB with a plain text file if you'd like.

Cookies or login help for repeat customers should you desire to remember them and not have them re-enter stuff.

Holy moly. The page linked above loads 45MB of stuff through 10s of files. I'm not sure that's We also optimize website performance.
