These 20 async calls don't actually need to reestablish the connection nowadays, so you don't actually get a significant performance penalty anymore for doing multiple requests.

Unless the requests are triggered after another request finished of course. That's still significantly impacting loading times

This discussion is quiet far from what I've initially said from my perspective, nonetheless...

> it's definitely not some law of economics or anything like that.

This is a no true scotsman fallacy. It's true that this is not a preordained truth, but you'll realistically always have someone at a loss for as long as resources are limited. And if you can't see one than you're just ignoring the one's at a loss as irrelevant.

I.e. descendents with natural resources or even non-human entities in the context of meat production etc

The theory is valid but too abstract to really point out where people lose something in return for what they've gained.

It's true that people can gain efficiency with specialization for example, but that's not necessarily a gain unless you define efficiency as the primary goal to be achieved.

This gained efficiency will then over time make this the most economical way to produce. This effectively harms everyone that hasn't adapted yet

It's just not an easy topic and claiming it is doesn't help whatsoever

No, it's not. A full field of research can never be adequately reflected with a single term.

Nor did I ever claim that it was Zero Sum at any point. I just pointed out that there are, by necessity, always "losers". That doesn't make it a zero sum game, as the values can be different and have very confusing side effects.

> You are not screwing over anybody. It is a two-sided deal that both parties find good.

There are no situations in which every participants wins. There are always "losers" as long as there are finite resources.

Like you said, both participants in the mentioned deal could be profiting, but there are more participants involved on the open market which are affected.

The "losers" are often hard to determine, as the previous commenter correctly pointed out. Nonetheless, the wealth came from somewhere. If it really was "created" from the interaction then this creation causes inflation, effectively removing wealth from everyone holding the currency in which the money was "created".

It's true that this particular deal will have a miniscule effect, but in does matter in aggregation with everyone else that made similar deals.

Macroeconomics is a much more challenging topic then you seem to realize

there are a lot of words that dont map directly onto another word.

heck, i'd argue that most abstract words are just close-ish approximations, which can be used to convey the same thing, but are also useable in different contexts with significantly changed meaning.

Take yesterday's wordle for example: tangy. few languages have something that maps onto exactly this meaning. Its still easy to translate it with a sentence, but its likely going to be more than one word. And the chosen translation will likely change significantly depending on the context the word is used in.

I'm not sure how good your reading comprehension generally is, but at least in this case you've clearly misinterpreted what I've written there.

And that ... Theory about the lockdowns supposedly not being because of the virus but to hide a larger financial crisis/weath reallocation is spreading quite quickly at least at far as I can tell. That's not going to reduce tensions in that regard, that's for sure.

There is only circumstantial evidence but the story sounds plausible. If things continue like this, I'd wager that trump will return in 24

Do they use chatbots for support?

> Leave, and start my own company.

I don't think that's going to be less stressful... Good luck though!

at ~1600 the ball started to spin too quickly for an intersection with that 10ms timer and there were 6 balls visible at the same time with my 144hz display. fun stuff.

so nauseating though. got a headache within seconds of playing from the constant and completely random camera movement

You already get more points of you click correctly before a full rotation.

Because it's a swedish company? The location of the servers is kinda irrelevant in that regard. They'd have to provide government access if there is a lawsuit that demands it. If there isn't one than your critique is entirely pointless

I think the Chromebooks Android support is more like the virtual devices that Android studio creates then actual native installs.

It's been quiet long since I've last I checked it out, but at least at that time the locale was different inside the android apps vs chromeos (including keyboard layout etc) and there was a separate settings app like on any Android devices with dummy values in hardware etc.

It was funny because it let me install Firefox on the Chromebook but it felt more like gimmick then an actually useful feature as a lot of apps just outright didn't work

my acer chromebook from 2015 got support.

i dont think the fault is entirely with google here, asus shouldn't have marketed it as that, considering your chromebook had an arm processor - great for battery life, but google really only implemented the docker/shell and android support for intel cpus.

really unfortunate though

That's fair, I guess I should've said most office workers in developed nations. Though I do think that caveat is kinda redundant here considering the demographic.

You only need to upgrade your PC once to value that sync functionality.

And besides I'm pretty sure most office workers have two devices: work and personal.

Chrome having profiles makes it super easy to just login on the work laptop on a secondary profile, which is preconfigured with login data etc so they're able to do online shopping etc in breaks

> why you’d consider yourself a “lowly” php developer.

PHP has always been considered as a somehow bad language in all corporations I've worked at to date. The same applies to other script languages such as python, ruby or nodejs - but PHP was the most undervalued of them all.

It's kinda strange because the language is really performant and relatively easy to use.

Maybe that's exactly why the big brain architects don't like it. They do tend to love things correlated with pointless complexity after all

This is a community primarily for founders though.

I'm not sure how to phrase it properly, but there is a strong selection for people with lax morals here for the simple reason that it's a competitive advantage. A founder with lax morals will generally outcompete someone with stronger morals, as such few people at the top of organizations of any size have strong morals

It reminded me to take my meds which I legitimately forgot to take this morning. Ymmv.

I also think that the use of the shit emoticons should've been enough hint that this is primarily a joke website

There are upgradeable options though. The framework Laptop to name the most hyped current option for example.

Pick a site and use their list.

I.e. IMDb, trakt.tv, rotten tomatoes etc.

Fwiw, gadfly was the only term i hadn't come across and didn't know what it meant as a non native speaker that occasionally reads english novels.

Nuts too!

you're arguing with a straw man because the equivalent would be to automatically harass everyone which ever bought this kind of shoes or maybe even had the audacity to buy second hand

This is something that doesn't really translate well between the online world and real life, because the mob mentality is the default on the web. That's not the case for real life thankfully - at least not where I live.

Sadly no, I tried for a while until I finally threw in the towel at some point.

I think you're overestimating what I did though, the basic idea is this recreation.

https://codepen.io/wohlben/pen/gOGKejv

it was just a lot more elements in the navigation with subcategories etc, but basically the same methods

(remember to check the mobile view, as thats the one thats using most selectors. Though the desktop view is arguably better)

this recreation is probably very confusing though, as the only hint that there are more links hidden for the category are the missing corners - and there is nothing hinting you have to click the category names to show these hidden options. and i skimped on proper accessibility for this mockup, so the hidden options can't be selected without touch/mouse

The JS just emulates what opening the page would have done. It was SSR

Ha, when I first learned about it I remade a pretty interesting navigation menu purely with :not :checked :focused :hover etc, so pure html and css, thinking it would be more performant then my previous JS version.

Its performance was not just measurably worse, it was obvious as soon as I opened the revision on my phone.

Lesson learned: it's important to think twice before using most pseudo selectors

So your advice is to just suck it up and accept that interested people need to spend billions and study for decades on the issue, because learning from previously successful endeavors is a worse teacher. Right.

It's fine to just half-ass it if the interest is only superficial or for a hobby. Otherwise it might create a very unrealistic expectation in the student, because the gained knowledge by doing it like that is pretty worthless in a professional setting

They didn't say that it's treatment for ADHD. If you invert their statement you end up with "having bad sleeping habits, [...] causes ADHD symptoms."

Fixing these issues would thus reduce them. It's not quiet as easy to diagnose ADHD as you seem to think, so a lot of people just live unhealthy, which gives them similar symptoms
