PHP and Laravel are amazing.

As a novice Arch user, I never realized this is why I needed to update keys often

I get it now, but I have so much imposter syndrome that I wasn't sure if this was ACTUALLY something I needed to figure out -__-

It does. https://go.dev/blog/maps

What the poster was alluding to is that you usually prefer to deseialize to a struct rather than a record/dict/map

Going off of that framework:

Because doing three requires convincing a bunch of people that are currently doing number two, to do number one instead.

The market can stay silly longer than I can stay solvent

Nebula is such a streaming service. From what I understand, they are a subscription based company that has a profit share incentive for it's creators. Consequently, the creators skew toward educational-esque content.

The OP is right that in everyday talk state is not used in the general sense of "government"

My own tin foil hat theory is that "state" in that usage entered into common English use (in U.S.) because of foreign actors. Rush Limbaugh, et al. have been talking about "deep state" long before it entered common use around the 2020 election.

I think a lot of people dislike that JavaScript is a general purpose programming language, rather than being a scripting engine for browsers.

Htmx posits that current browsers aren't "truly" hypermedia since only anchor tags and forms can initiate GET/POST requests. It is more of a tech demo showing what client with ANY tag being able to do requests would look like.

That's why whether it is library/framework is besides the point. The author posits that these features should be in the spec, and tries as closely as possible to show what something might look like if we had it in the spec

while I understand the hesitation, there are many solutions that only make sense at scale.

Anectdotal: I got a raise after two years working for my current company. It's nice, to be sure, but it doesn't cover inflation according to the BLS inflation calculator.

Stroad is a word that has increasingly come into popular use and is well defined.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroad

You can ignore new terms if you wish, but it is useful for describing a common street pattern in North America. The term is increasingly being used by urban planners.

I've spoken to my friends on how right-on-red is one of the most anti-pedestrian rules of the street that exist. It was like pulling nails trying to convince them that the added convenience for motorists is not worth the increased danger to pedestrians... I live in the city, they in the suburbs. It's not that they are uncaring (well, not directly) it is just that for many people, imagining a lifestyle different from theirs is very difficult.

I'm convinced that North America will only get its act together when gasoline reaches $9.00/gal. Only then will middle class folks start looking toward city living and only then will we get any appreciable progress in city life. I only hope that we reach that point BEFORE the climate catastrophe worsens beyond repair. The fracking boom doesn't have me very confident of this.

To whatever extent this article is true suggests that the way to convince people of certain positions is to hook them via peripheral route, but then keep them there via the central route.

If the position is such that any central route reasoning would lead to a rejection of the position, than the next best option is to overwhelm the critical faculties with peripheral route persuasion

If Ted's ideas lead to the destruction of human lives, I think invoking the victims' experience is a valid point in the discussion.
