intricatedetail commented on Ask HN: Getting tired of complexity in web development · Posted by u/jelan

Using React with an API back-end is only 1 of many choices.

There's tools like Hotwire[0] and htmx[1] (both are back-end agnostic) that will let you create good old boring web apps with any back-end language where you don't need to write a ton of JS. You can sprinkle in front-end quality of life enhancements as needed to make nice feeling web apps with reasonably minimal complexity.

From my experience the more exotic frameworks are often pushed at smaller companies by developers hoping they'll be hard to replace whereas big companies use what s most popular to ensure they can find replacements easily.

Intel is done. Gelsinger can do his best to rally the troops but it's too late to catch up with Apple Silicon. The M1 came out in 2020 and Intel is still unable to match it. The M2 is coming this year, leaving Intel ever further behind.

I hate Apple, but every time I run something resource intensive on my laptop and it starts to sound like a plane going to take off I go to Apple.com and hover over Check out button. Once there is a reliable way to run Linux on M1/2 I'll switch.

I am realistically wondering now, what changes does this bring. If London won't be interesting anymore for oligarchs, what will happen with prices of accomodation in center? If Switzerland is not a neutral country anymore, where will the money go?

There should be prisoners dilemma and therefore some country should emerge to fill this "market need"

If money can't be explained it should be seized. The properties should be nationalised and then sold on auctions. Money should be used to rebuild Ukraine and legal assistance to get war criminals tried.

Probably semi related, but when I was looking at C/C++ job offers, why are they paid so little in comparison to Python or JavaScript? It seems like C/C++ is much more complex. I was mainly looking at embedded stuff vs Web. For example senior C++ role was paying £45k pa on average and over £60k for JS.

NATO membership requires territorial integrity. A lot would have to change first.

And I think even with all the excitement, clear heads will seriously question how well this strategy has worked.

See no reason why Russia should not be forced to withdraw completely - leaving Crimea, Donetsk and Lugansk. It's Ukraine time to retake their lands from the occupier.

Why are you lumping China with the actual invaders? There's the Taiwan mess, and China don't participate in the sanctions regime, but it's not the same thing as actively invading. ( For the record, i think that sanctioning Russia is the morally correct thing to do)

They are committing genocide, run concentration camps and forced labour. They actively threat Taiwan. That's more than enough to justify avoiding them.

The last thing I want is CPC reading my notes. Unless device can be loaded with trusted OS and air gapped I wouldn't take it even if they paid me.

It's a shame there are not very many devices working in audio range (sub 100khz). You still have to scout eBay for a device from the 80s-90s and they are still expensive as hell.

Can you explain? The title paper is 'Cannabinoids Promote Progression of HPV-Positive Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma via p38 MAPK Activation'. You are probably refering to their press release.

intricatedetail · 4 years ago

My bad, Thank you for pointing out. The press release should be corrected though.

“ Cannabinoids Promote Progression of HPV-Positive Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma via p38 MAPK Activation”

That is the study name. You are referencing the title of the press release from the university they work at.

While it’s perfectly fair to discuss the historical context of words, it’s important that we also recognize that using commonly used terminology in translating science for public consumption is necessary.

It’s also important to get basic facts right before trying to criticize peoples research.

intricatedetail · 4 years ago

The N word is also commonly used, doesn't mean it's right. There should be no place for racism in academia. I am surprised this is up since 2020.
