> a high dose (22 or 30 mg/70 kg) of psilocybin

What is this compared to a recreational dose? Are these patients getting high as part of their treatment?


The number of first-time home owners has plummeted though

easier sell/setup


> Makes it an easier sell to devs, "you don't have to 'change' editors" and it makes setup easier if you happen to be using VSC

But tying it to an editor (including VSCode) means "you have to change editors".

I don't use VSCode, so any solution requiring it is a no-go.

When we have aider[1], which works with any editor/IDE, I just don't see the value in trying Cursor, et al.

[1] https://aider.chat/


The value for me in cursor is the tab feature not the chat. I use the chat to generate code maybe once per week but the tab autocompleting saves me probably 30 minutes per day.


I'm the opposite. I care little for any feature that isn't the agent.


I would argue that Claude code is easier to set up. Not sure about selling though.


> moments used to be given over to silent reflection or conversation with whoever is around

Noticeable on pubic transit particularly


I used to ride busses before cell phones and smartphones and no one was exactly striking up conversations back then either

I'm sure it happens, but it seemed rare to me. People read books or magazines, or were just too cramped and crowded to bother trying to interact


The population of bus riders skews younger—even excluding the school bus, I think, lots of folks public transit are young professionals and college student. The nostalgia for a time that didn’t actually happen hits this crew early.


Yes

For college students they likely almost always find themselves surrounded by familiar faces, even classmates, because they are all going to class at the same time on the same transit

So yeah, it would be easier to strike up a random conversation with people you recognize from campus or just people who are all part of your similar demographic


I am riding public transit to my uni for 5 years by now and the number of times I was approached for a casual conversation is 0 for today :D

I never saw anything like that happen.


I used to ride the train to and from work, I'd usually read the paper (cheap if you bought it in the afternoon) or sleep (most mornings).


It's been over 40 years since I last stepped onto a school bus, but it was always a raucous place, requiring bus drivers to be fairly strong authority figures to keep the kids in their seats. I wonder if it's like a tomb now, with all heads bowed over their phones.


I can't even begin to imagine the hell that telepathic like electronic message services provide children in these environments. It was bad enough when there was at least the possibility of moderation by adults.


As someone who was once a child who liked to read on the bus the new world sounds nice.

Neither here nor there, but the photographer was Stanley Kubrick


The thing is if you saw someone back then who did not put the paper or book down while say, crossing the street, going up the stairs, using an escalator, using a urinal, ordering from a cashier, picking up takeout, every waking moment there was, you'd assume they had some sort of pathology going on.


Well said this is many students' intro to PHP. Why not `<include src=header.html/>` though?

Some content is already loaded asynchronously such as images, content below the fold etc.

> HTML is really just a markup syntax, not a programming language

flamebait detected :) It's a declarative language, interpreted by each browser engine separately.


What's the ML in HTML stand for? I think that's probably the crux of the argument. Are we gonna evolve it past its name?


If the issue is that "include" somehow makes it sound like it's not markup, the solution seems obvious. Just use the src attribute on other tags:

<html src="/some/page.html">, <div src="/some/div.html">, <span src="/some/span.html">, etc.

Or create a new tag that's a noun like fragment, page, document, subdoc or something.

Surely that's no less markup than svg, img, script, video, iframe, and what not.


It stands for "markup language", and was inherited from SGML, which had includes. Strictly speaking, so did early HTML (since it was just an SGML subset), it's just that browsers didn't bother implementing it, for the most part. So it's not that it didn't evolve, but rather it devolved.

Nor is this something unique to SGML. XML is also a "markup language", yet XInclude is a thing.


> It stands for "markup language", and was inherited from SGML, which had includes

touchay!!


That's why I joked about flamebait, it's hypertext though, aren't anchors essentially a goToURL() click handler in some ways? Template partials seem like a basic part of this system.

> considered to be server-side

Good point! Wouldn't fetching a template partial happen the same way (like fetching an image?)


> What's the ML in HTML stand for?

I always assumed it stood for my initials.


`text-align: justify` solves a different problem, it justifies your text; both the left and right edges of each line are aligned with the margins.

> Should one use both together in the main text of your average blog

Optimize for legibility; the properties are compatible.


Ironically the paragraph about orphans ("avoid leaving a single word by itself") puts "large" on a line by itself (at the largest viewport).

Applying `text-wrap:pretty` solves that!


The live experience is something to be seen, it's not just the two Jons playing Birdhouse in Your Soul.

They have a very large band including a lot of wind instruments, and they really have fun with it. (Spoiler alert) they've taken to playing Sapphire Bullets of Pure Love in reverse, filming it live, then playing that recording in reverse for the audience (post-intermission).


They did the Sapphire Bullets trick in the show I saw. It was pretty dang impressive. I love that they tour with a horn section now, and hearing new arrangements of old favorites that make use of the horn section was great. (And of course new favorites written with the horn section in mind from the get go were also great.)

I also enjoyed that they introduced Birdhouse with "Please rise for the They Might Be Giants national anthem."


> they really have fun with it.

Isn't that, like, everything? The first time I saw them it was because they were here, it was affordable, and I dug that Malcom in the Middle song, so why not? The second time was just because they're fun. There will be a next time and it will again be just because they're fun.

And I'm still not sure I could name another of their songs.


I saw their Flood tour. Variety Playhouse Atlanta 1990.

No band, just the two of them. Plus the metronome, and some prerecorded backup here and there.


* What are a few features you offer over Browserstack? (re: x-browser testing).

* Do you offer GenAI integrations? (Copilot, Claude, etc)

(Help me sell this to my manager)


Polypane is a chromium-based browser that you install on your own device and use while building applications that lets you develop at different (emulated) devices and screensizes/variation in one overview, with a bunch of development, accessibility and quality tools built right in.

Browserstack is an online device testing tool where you check if your site works on different real devices one-by-one. That is to say, they don't really compete: if you don't have real devices to test with then Browserstack is an excellent option.

What users mostly find is that by using Polypane (fast, local) they have far less use of Browserstack (slow, online) and the entire process speeds up. There will always be a need for real device testing.

There's no gen AI integrations, and I don't have any planned. You can happily use Claude or CoPilot in the browse panel though (which is a little browser that lives inside Polypane, so you can browse without losing the context of your project)


Thank you for not adding AI slop to this.


The big difference:

> The GSM Association announced that the latest RCS standard includes E2EE

> While Apple’s proprietary iMessage system already supported E2EE, this wasn’t extended to RCS messaging because the previous RCS standard didn’t provide cross-platform support
