HTML5 is just the new VT100 or ANSI. Being that it is an interpreted formatting language, it has its limitations, and tools to push past them, tend to not work too well.
There were Hacks on the IBM CGA screen, where the Text format was quarter. So you can get 16colors at 160x100 resolution. But text will not be readable.
The big issues with these tool sets is it is asking html5 to do things that html5 doesn't want to do by default.
Yes, but we are just having cars that (such as the Tesla autopilot) good enough to deal with staying in its lane on the highway.
The key point is the AI needed to safely drive a car on our roads is much intense then it is to fly. While we as humans find it easier to drive then fly, is because we have millions of years of evolution behind us to think and traverse 2 dimensions. While it takes more skill to think in 3d, with pitch and angle and basing your flight on those 9 key indicators on the dashboard) Is a lot of work for a human. But it is much easier with a computer.
Being that JavaScript has been running on browsers for close to 20 years. While not 100% secure. It is designed to not to interact with your actual PC, just in the container it is designed to run it (the browser) we have been safe from a lot of the nonsense that Microsoft has exposed us to in the past, with VB Script and Active X controls. The vulnerabilities in Javascript have been quickly fixed and isn't a flaw in the language but in the interpreter. While the Microsoft languages, where designed in era where the idea of having a program hosted on the internet directly write to your files was a good idea. And they cannot easily roll back those features, as there was some guy who uses the features daily.
Well we are not doing any of this other stuff either. We are more apt to blame the poor on being poor, and figure their reason for being poor is because they just are too lazy. Most cities are more apt to try to find ways to get them out of their sight than actually helping their situation.
If they can at least have a place they can call home (being a one room in a shelter), which is safe and secure. Then it makes it easier to start figuring out the other problems. If your basic survival is at stake, the other long term issues just can't be dealt with.
I see one of the bigger problems is the definition of a home. There are rules against making places too small, or having private washrooms. Having a 9x9 room with a door that can be locked, with a Light and AC and Heat to keep it at a comfortable temperature that they can all their own is a big thing for those who have nothing. A place to keep what stuff they already have safe, and a place to sleep comfortably and privately.
However with drone programming, you are dealing with physics and weather, and often a relatively large room for error. Vs. a car where you need to deal with people, weather and a small room for error.
They are jerks anyways. Hey look at me in my fancy car, I am going to cut you off, because I am rich and you don't seem rich because you don't have a fancy car.
Let them fly in the sky, make life better for the rest of us.
Aircraft had Autopilot for generations. Flying when all the hardware is working correctly, is very safe. Car automation is much more difficult, because you can only move in 2 dimensions to avoid an obstacle. And most obstacles need to occupy those same 2 dimensions. Having 3 dimensions reduces the volume exponentially also not having century old infrastructure in the way is handy too.
Now these will not be flying in tight formation. So reaction time is now in minutes vs split seconds.
Which is at least an Open Standard Programming language. Which works on different OS's and hardware architecture. And designed to run relatively safely on your PC. VB is a hold over the Bad Old days of Microsoft. Where to get the feature you needed the entire ecosystem. Even the long time Office for the Mac, didn't didn't support VBscript (or at least not completely)
The biggest issue I have, is people using Excel and Access as their programming environment, to try to bypass us egotistical developers and get a program running fast. Only to have it break a year down the line and get those egotistical developers digging in poorly written and designed system to make heads or tail on what went wrong.
What Apple was betting on, is the fact that the average person, didn't need a powerful computer. But one that is easy to setup and work with. In many ways that was a big gamble. 1998 is the time of the eMachenes and Compaq race to the bottom PC's where they were just pushing cheaper PC's with more features "Mostly broken" That were large boxes, with big screens.
Apple was selling a reduced feature at not a race to the bottom price, but (despite the stated problems from the parent) more or less worked well, and was easy to use, and fit in well with the culture of the time.
Before the Intel switch Apple was getting a lot of traction. The big issue was the G5 Power PC chip couldn't be scaled down to a Laptop CPU, and has been lagging to match CPU speeds especially with the Intel Core chips. The switch to Intel was a boom for them. But there was a lot of popularity with the Powerbooks, Powermacs, iMacs, and iBooks. If they had done the switch back in 1998 to Intel. Apple would probably had been put out of business, because they would just be an other PC Clone.
What the iMac did was plug the hole in the sinking ship known as Apple. What it did was offered a product someone wanted, and got some new sales out of it. Apple had been barely sailing on its existing customers just upgrading.
People were still getting PC's in droves because they more or less had too. But with the iMac they started to want a Mac. But MacOS 8 and 9 were way too out of date in many ways and offered no good reason for the upgrade.
While OS X, which was new and powerful and had the Unixy goodness, this got the attention of many of the technical people, who use to poo poo Macs for being too user friendly without the tools they really need.
Then it followed up with the iBooks, Powerbooks, Power Macs, iPods, then iPhones....
I am sure the iMac was the first part of a long term strategy. First to get people to want the product, then to get them like the product, then to buy the products.
The Macs before that were just PC's with MacOS on it and incompatible chips. the iMac changed the conversation.
However the difference between a $20.00 Pizza being worth $40.00 in a couple of years if you had saved the money. Vs the $20.00 Pizza being worth $200 Million in a few years. I can live with myself If I knew I lost $20.00 due to an immediate purchase. But If I lost $200 million I would be kicking myself for the rest of my life. The first may be a minor inconvenience the former would had been a major life changing event
Unfortunately, due to its volatility, cryptocurrencies cannot be handled like money for the common man. Because you get cases where people would buy a pizza that would be worth more then the budget of a small nation a few years later.
I see Microsoft more like the Cool kid from high school, who became a looser when he grew up. Who actively is trying to relive their glory days. But those Apple and Google Nerds, ended up on top, and now they are trying to fit in again.
The App store idea is more or less opposed to the core Microsoft main selling point. "We have all the software you could possible want to run it" By having a Microsoft store, it is cutting into that idea, because they are trying to say, we only want you to use the approved Microsoft products.
In general the App Store isn't a bad idea. Even Linux with APT and Snap is a similar process where software shown to be "safe","works", and "worth while" is posted on the store, giving you a safe place to get your software. However the issue has been, is what each store owner considers safe, works and worth while, is a crap shoot.
Lets say I build a better copy and paste feature for Windows. Microsoft may reject it because it overrides a windows built in functionality, thus considered unsafe, or they will have those features in the next version of Windows (probably after seeing what I did in my program) and reject it as not worth while because that feature will be there soon. The Apple store is notorious for this.
But for most developers they program for windows because they have too, because that is where the customers are, not because of any sense of loyalty to Microsoft. The App store for Microsoft vs. Selling by yourself, or on amazon.... Is just too cumbersome. While 15% is a bit high. However the biggest expense is the uncertainty.

However the general rule of thumb is no matter what the writing conventions are. If humans are putting it in the system, there will be mistakes. So "Hello World" vs "HelloWorld" (Slashdot cleared out my two non-breaking space) is a possible chance.
For the most part on big databases for searching I often will need to use a Levenshtein or Jaro algorithm, with normalizing white spaces. Just because human error is so common.
I am not following you. Are you talking about a Hex Editor layout, so a Hex values would be "6c69 6b65 2074 6869 733f" But nearly any search algorithm doesn't care about the space unless you say search for word with a space. And why the heck would you want to sort a document? if you were you just ignore spaces. I run into more coding exceptions when I get other characters such as " ' { } > < & because normally they will conflict with secondary systems such as SQL, JSON, HTML or XML. Yes the fixes are quite easy to work around, but if you are making a get it done junk program (which is intended for a few weeks, and ends up being a mission critical application) Having to make a program in under 15 minutes for a specialized purpose sometimes doesn't get the all the testing it needed. That said, I never in my 30 years programming experience had issues with coding double spaces vs single space. Just as long as the code supported spaces.
That was a different eco system. Mostly trees and plants. Most of the animals were in the water. Also these changes took thousands of years to take place. While we are expecting changes in under a hundred years. Will man made climate change kill all life? No but much of its diversity will be killed because it is changing faster then they can adapt.
People drive all day and need to be vigilant. Especially if the car is going into a an area where they are people and traffic. His job was to be a safety driver. He failed at his job.
That is general true about the world. If you are a driver and you are distracted or not fully focused on the world around you, your sensitivity setting is just off too. The biggest reason why Motocycles get in accidents is because automobile drivers fail to see them, just because they may not be expecting a Motocycle, so their eyes are on the look out for fast moving objects that fill up at least 2/3 of the lane. This fact that we fail to comprehend things that we don't expect is how magicians trick us to see these magic tricks. Our brain takes a lot of shortcuts in processing the world the same way that the Uber Car decided not to deal with processing the women.
When growing up as a kid, We needed to learn what is acceptable and what isn't. Growing up we have said and done things that had hurt people and ourselves. We learned from it so we changed our settings, if we went too far, then we found we couldn't get things done, so we more or less settled around some happy medium that works for our lifestyle.
Exactly, Being this is test technology. It was his job to override the car when it made a bad decision. Being that Uber's Self driving cars is years behind other makers such as Google, the safety driver should had been much more vigilant.
Normally in polite conversation we will talk about the weather. I would guess that many articles about towns/cities/states/countries/continent/hemisphere... would probably like to explain what climate it has. As climate affects the culture of the land.
