Was excited to click on it to begin with, but nearly jumped out of my seat when I saw that it was Elixir and LiveView.

My other app [1] is also Phoenix and Liveview, but it probably isn't interesting to you unless you have the same hobby as I do XD

It’s a shame that those Minsky links have been broken for at least a few months now. Does anyone know where this material is?

Looks like someone is mirroring it here,

Looks identical to the old captures on archive.org, so that checks out.

How does he blink? From the picture it looks like his eyelid would have to be stretched out over the device with his fingers.

I know this is against HN rules, but what's up with all these comments who clearly have not made a minimal effort to read the article? It is a 600-word piece, not a research paper.

> this is all kept so extraordinarily slim and compact that you can stick it on your eyeball and still stretch your eyelid over top of it without the use of a shoehorn

Hard lenses are something like 1.5mm thick, plenty of space for modern electronics.

There is no blinking in the future.

Thank you so much for all of this great work. What was the inspiration for this direction? Was it a personal itch? Or something else?

In general notes, it is an effort to bring more use cases to Elixir, the Erlang VM, and the ecosystem. But it is an area I have been interested on (back in 2009 my master thesis was actually within Machine Learning). When I met Sean (through the Genetic Algorithms in Elixir book), our interests aligned and we started working on it!

I’ve enjoyed all 4 of these articles in this “Jackpot” series. Sort of exploratory writing. You can feel that he’s trying to find the truth, not necessarily convince. Plus it’s like all Gibsonian references.

I liked this. It’s a different approach so take a look at the free pages. Not for everyone but worth a look to see if it fits you. Bonus: the author is responsive.

I don't think Chinese cyber spying is really news to anyone. What's different about this now is that the U.S., a few others and notably, NATO are specifically calling out China for it.

That's a pretty heavy diplomatic change. Especially the inclusion of NATO.

That's the important take from this, that it's NATO meaning 1) It's national security and 2) NATO countries are acting in unison on this.

This got me today. Probably could be characterized as the classic case of: Company says a certain use case is unsupported, but tries hard to accommodate users who are stuck with the unsupported use case, so they hack up a decent work around under the hood. Then the technically unsupported use case blows up, so they then have to scramble to support it with a quick work around...for the workaround.

The workaround worked. I think at this point it makes me more likely to keep using Netlify. I love the product. And I think I love the support for unsupported un-recommended feature that they supported today.

Thanks Netlify Ops!

Does anyone know if "docketed" means that SCOTUS granted Certiorari?

It does not[1]. Doesn't really matter though, as there's no cert to be granted here: State v. State can only be adjudicated in SCOTUS.

[1] https://www.scotusblog.com/reference/educational-resources/g...

Docketed means that SCOTUS will consider the petition. It is extremely unusual that SCOTUS does not docket a case; you basically have to be a vexatious litigant to reach that stage.

Considering a petition is not even close to a guarantee of certiorari. There are several thousand petitions filed a year, and SCOTUS will hear about 70-ish cases a year.

The Court does not grant cert for this. Disputes between states are one of the few instances where SCOTUS has original jurisdiction and thus, it is the trial court.

I second this. What was your handle?

I was just a lurker.
