It's hard to take seriously someone who doesn't hold the same speculations about the future as yours?

It comes [this paper](https://eprint.iacr.org/2015/616.pdf) which made the HN front page at its time. The battery API exposes information about the current charge of the battery and its full charge capacity that is apparently a non-negligible fingerprinting vector for short-term tracking.

Those are laptops with SSD. Laptops with HDD come in with 1TB+

Sure, but laptops with HDD are a niche case. That's not what your average user wants nor has and for good reason.

Your indexing performance would also sharply decline when subjected to the random access seek times of those 2.5" spinning metal.

I can promise you the average user of a laptop doesn't have the first clue about the difference between an SSD and HDD.

I think this analogy is misleading as we tend to visualize animals by size and not by weight.

And by size, do you mean volume or height?

The point being when you decriminalize it becomes accessible both to those who "really want" it and those who just would be curious to try it.

Atom will die with Electron in a not so distant future.

I didn't put much toughs about it regarding life goals and aspirations, but regarding little creative projects, I've found that it's really hard to focus just on one thing because passion for the project progressively drops while ideas for new projects flourish.

I've tried sticking to doing one and only one project, but all what happened is that my passion dropped to the point of zero productivity and I was doing nothing. Can't start a new project because this one isn't finished. Can't finish this project because new ones are more interesting.

I imagine that it's about the same for life, and that the solution is so much more complex.

Could you elaborate on what are the complaints you've heard about "variable assigning, mutable variables, lambdas"? Just curious.

It unclear if you are introducing a new variable to the scope or mutating an existing one.

    # Am I defining foo for the first time or am I mutating
    foo = "stuff"

Python if I recall in the OOP sense combats this with requiring self.foo but this is not the case with other forms of lexical scoping such as loops with in loops etc.

And of course you can't define constants.

IIRC for lambdas its that they can't span multiple lines and I believe they are getting removed (I'm not a python 3 expert)?

Your beauty criteria incurs a 1/65 loss. This is why.

This is why I listen to Jimmy Soul[1] for all of my life's decisions./s

Might be true for people who know what they're doing. However I've seen a decrease in the number of toolbars installed in my mom's computer since I've installed an antivirus.

Is she on XP or something without Defender?
