I managed to make it crash by spamming letters: > Unchecked runtime.lastError: A listener indicated an asynchronous response by returning true, but the message channel closed before a response was received framework-a87821de553db91d.js:1 Error: code length overflow. (23804>23648)

cool project btw


Hey thanks for breaking it! :) the templating lang is definitely brittle right now and will need to be revamped for anything close to real usage.

I managed to add emoji support last night, which ended up increasing my encoded payload size by about 30%.

I need to add some debouncing to the block updates as it’s real time right now but with all of the encoding seems to overwhelm the page if you type too fast.


This is the way.

Was the account given warning? I agree there are lots of throwaway comments but there are also some incredibly great ones.

While I understand the time-value for any effort on this is questionable, it would be a pity to throw the baby out with the bathwater.


A couple general points, not specifically about the GP account:

(1) moderation unfortunately has to go by the worst things an account does, not the best things;

(2) we do give warnings, but there are exceptions, such as when there's evidence that the user has been banned in the past.


The universe is not uniform/isotropic at large scales


The universe is not isotropic in the time dimension. However, across space the prevailing thinking is that the universe is isotropic on a large scale in the spatial dimensions.


If it wasn’t isotopic across space, that would be a huge deal.


As far as I understand (I'm not a physicist), to be able to say that the universe is isotropic across space, you need a point of view that just doesn't exist. You cannot speak about an absolute synchronicity among events happening in locations scattered among an arbitrary subset of the set of all visible galaxies, and without that, you cannot abstract time out of the picture, which you'd need to do to speak about isotropicity across space.

I don't think that, in this regard, you can say much more than "the universe is not isotropic across space-time".


You cannot speak about an absolute synchronicity among events happening in locations scattered among an arbitrary subset of the set of all visible galaxies

The cosmic microwave background gives you a physical realization of just that (but of course only approximately so), at least as far as cosmologists are concerned. The rules of relativity of course still apply, making this particular synchronicity convention just one of many others...


But the cosmic microwave background refers to one single event, that has echoes everywhere, right? If I understand correctly, you don't need to synchronize anything to have echoes everywhere.

An event is a single point in spacetime, whereas photon decoupling happens everywhere, defining a spacelike hypersurface we use for synchronization (in the idealized scenario).

Subsequently, the CMB allows us to single out a particular reference frame (the one where it looks isotropic) and provides a measure of expansion via its redshift/temperature which we can then translate to cosmological time (ie time since the big bang as measured by an observer following the Hubble flow) via our cosmological models.


As you can see, it clearly isn't homogenous https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_cosmic_structu...


It's not in space, see the theoretical limit being bypassed "List of the largest cosmic structure" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_cosmic_structu...


That's one small step for man, but one giant leap for mankind.


Truer words have never been spoken.


we need to free ourselves from our chains


Scrum Elon Doge to the moon!


scrum is basically a way to provide fake jobs to many people, this allow them to avoid doing useful work and qualified work, like coding. The same applies to non-technical product owners. They are absolut frauds and will definitely not got to heaven, if there's one.


Scrum masters are a disease, rotten to the core.


I'd say thinking is the union type of under and overthinking. The approximation error he makes is a limit of our language. I propose to coin the word opti-thinking to fill the semantic gap.
