You are right. It is very tricky to determine which sources are credible. The National Enquirer broke the John Edwards love child story, despite not being a credible source. And on the other hand we see credible news sources distort the truth to fit the narrative every day. However, the first stage is create systems that let us add news events and reporting in an objective form in which it can be assessed (we have done this already), and then to work on systems that allow us to assess their validity (work in progress). I think something like stack exchange can work, and it will be interesting to experiment to see what works.

It is clear that you have no clue. Probably you think that the existence of "foundations" means that money arrives at the people doing the actual work.

I started reading your link but there's a lot there (which I will definitely read later).

Sure, it always depends on the workload. You could also argue that if you want to run applications in containers you'd be better off using Hyper.sh than 'wasting' cycles running your own Docker daemon + scheduler on top of another provider.

If you can describe your workload I'd be curious to do a comparison.
Currently most active is Lifoo (https://github.com/codr4life/lifoo), a Lisp/Forth-inspired language that's embedded in, and compiles to Common Lisp. Good luck trying to generate funny money from of that idea :) Still, I wouldn't change the experience for anything; it might be imperfect, but this one is mine; no more squeezing ideas into what someone else once thought was possible.
quick question - the big focus of truffle seems to be js, ruby,R.
Even the github org does not have python - https://github.com/graalvm

your comment today was the first time I realized there was a Truffle port for Python, and is NOT maintained by the parent oracle org.

Any particular (technical) reason ?
You can't write coalesce IO operations that haven't been called yet.
By way of comparison, Carakan (Opera's last JS VM) was under 10 man-years from start to shipping, including all testing resources, etc. (And yes, I realise man-years is a terrible way to judge this!)

How much of Dropbox could they rewrite for something quicker than CPython in the time taken to write a JIT? That's the ultimate business question, and there's plenty of evidence to suggest that in general JITs have been comparatively easy versus a rewrite. As the article says, they have millions of lines of code.

At the same time, at least from my knowledge of the languages, JS, Lua, and PHP are all easier to optimize than Python is (because you can do crazier stuff with Python's object model). JS and Lua also benefit from their incredibly small standard libraries which also means you don't need to potentially spend lots of time reimplementing libraries; CPython at least has most of its being implemented either in Python or through its C API which means if you have C API and licensing allows you can just pull out much of it from there.

Right, I simplified a bit there: You would use a replication controller, but it would have "replicas: 1". This way, the pod is rescheduled and the service repointed, and the volume management ensures that the database gets mounted.

we have a hundred years of additional research, and tesla alone is putting billions in research and batteries still aren't there. I think you need to picture what life was back at that time, and remember the price of gas wasnt the price point that prevented car ownership. Ford was type-A about getting prices down in all possible ways, but if for some reason standard oil ridiculously increased the price of gas and nobody was able to stop them (I dont buy into the argument standard oil keeping its monopoly would have increased the price of oil so much that an alternative would have been needed), they would have used coal.
I agree with the rude man that accusations of rudeness are themselves rude! (Even where they are true).

This reflexive property is interesting, for example:

Hatred is harmful. Accusation of hatred is a form of hatred. Racism is harmful. Accusation of racism is also harmful. Rape is harmful. Accusation of rape is harmful. Pedophilia is harmful. Accusation of pedophilia is harmful. Blasphemy is harmful. Accusation of blasphemy is harmful.

Obviously the harm isn't generally equal. Does the disparity say something about how honest a society is?
With Neocities also supporting IPFS could something like Filecoin be next?
I've always found HN's policy of no editorializing of titles, and their insistence on original titles to be counterproductive.

Quite often an excellent article will have a really generic or vague title that few people will ever read, and a judiciously edited title will interest people enough to read it.

At that point, upvotes should determine whether the article lives or dies, as usual. If readers don't think the article is worthwhile, they don't have to upvote it.

I like your subtitle idea too. It's definitely better than insisting on keeping just the original title. Unfortunately, it will make for some practical difficulties with the layout of HN pages, which will be able to fit fewer articles in the same space, and it will also be problematic with RSS feeds and the like, which will often still display just one title, not a title and subtitle.
They're better when eaten as fresh as you can get them. Canned ones are nasty.

It's risky.
For programming yes, but there are some pretty neat tools for web designers such as sketch.app and tons of prototyping software.
These projects were explicitly set up to be XP/Agile projects, and were staffed with people with that experience and expertise.

The way the experts say you can turn your environment around to that, is by explaining and showing the advantages of a deadline free process.

Your management will - not unreasonably - suspect you're just trying to work less hard. The way out of that is to build trust by constantly delivering quality software.

If this sounds hard, it probably is. I've certainly never done it. The easier way is to join a team that already works this way :)

It's also worth noting that constant refactoring towards a good design is a difficult skill that not everyone has! It takes a effort and experience to get good at it. For a group of random programmers, it may not be the best way to work.
I'm learning Japanese and this is quite an interesting thing to hear. I am surprised by the number of things that do not quite have a simple analogue in English. It's a nice and compact phrase, though of course the danger with many of these is that they may be uncommon so risky to use, especially as a learner.

I'm not sure people have this idea that a JIT or AOT compiled version will come along; certainly ten years ago nobody really had that impression, has the rise of the JS VMs really changed this so much?

To take FB as an example: AFAIK, it was written in PHP because Zuckerberg knew PHP. There was no expectation it would "come around" and it continued to be in PHP because bills had to be paid and rewriting everything would stop new features from being launched and hopefully reach profitability.

If you're a small startup your first goal is almost always to hit profitability, and then your goal is almost always to maintain that. As a result, language choices are frequently made by what founders know rather than any technical merit.
I actually picked a small number. With documentation, testing and everything you get pretty quickly to large teams. I bet less than 10 would be devs.
Switching banks is a PITA. I maintain typical accounts at >5 banks, most of them are well-known national brand name banks though a couple are smaller regional/local banks.

I've long intended to close down several of them -- especially one of the oldest ones, which hasn't had a branch in my resident state for roughly 10 years now -- but I then realize it's a low value proposition. I've got some small ACH or card-based auto-pay stuff on it that I'd have to track down and move, and all that. Not to mention the 'fear' I have that I'll be traveling and get locked out, so may as well have other options.

I realize it's probably not as bad as I think, but frankly I'd almost just rather just keep my "doors open" so to speak, even if it is a small money drain.

BTW -- I very recently paid $10 for a Cashier's check at a national brand bank, wasn't thrilled about it, but paid it. That said, their online presence/capabilities make up for it (especially vs many regional/small banks).

I just wish SVB did personal accounts. They rock.
Google has more monopoly power in search than any cellular provider has in last mile wireless access. Are you opposed to Google Maps results showing up in search listings?
I thought it was the other way around. VZW's CDMA phones support GSM so that their customers can use them while traveling internationally, but you're unlikely to find a GSM phone that has CDMA just in case you want to switch to VZW.

Leasing is not that expensive in Denmark in comparison to ownership. Also, due to extreme rusting of your car after a few years due to road salt, I find it gives more peace of mind.

If you are a permanent resident, you can't drive a vehicle with foreign number plates. That rules out leasing abroad.

Many people live in Malmö but work in Copenhagen precisely to avoid this restriction.
It was my understanding that most/all of this unsoundness can be removed by telling the compiler to disallow a bunch of stuff using command line args, is this still not the case?

Also even if you can't statically determine the types of some variables typescript seems to be able to determine it for most. If most of the objects are statically known would it give you a large part of the speed up of a totally static system? In Java and C# there's still some intentional holes in the type systems like the dynamic keyword or casting to object
Thanks a lot for the explanation. NNP would be Noun-Noun-Phrase and NNPS would be Noun-Noun-Phrase-Sentence I believe? I will play around with the syntax more.

> A Used Renault Zoe can be bought for well under 10k EUR.

Bear in mind that with many examples of Renault and Nissan EVs, you also have to pay a mandatory monthly battery leasing fee - even as the second or subsequent owner. So the headline purchase cost is only part of the price.

There are some Zoes, and a larger proportion of Leafs, in which the battery is owned outright but one has to check before purchasing.
I substantially agree with Friedman that taxing the unimproved value of land is the least bad tax, but I see no evidence to suggest that he thinks it will be paid effectively by the legal owner of the property (the landlord) rather than passing it along to the beneficial user of the property (the tenant).

It would seem strange indeed that the user would pay the tax if they owned the house, but would avoid entirely the effect of the tax if they rented the property and the landlord would pay the tax entirely, passing along none of it to the tenant.

I have serious doubts that either of us will convince the other on this topic. With that, I wish you well and if you wish to never own property, may you entirely avoid the effects of land value taxes.
Maybe these people appear rude to the writer because people like her see them as invisible, low class types who are supposed to be run over by the pettiness of each self-aggrandizing, set-absorbing and condescending request from people like the writer. Maybe the writer claims superiority over these poor people simply because their uniforms are cheap-looking (her words), or her face is not what she expected (her words) or her salary doing their jobs is lower than what she gets paid writing this selfish nonsense. It's typical of the liberal elites like her that think that the world is wrong, only because the world is less privileged than they are.
Study Links Cancer to Living Within a Mile of Oil Wells
I'm not quite sure that I follow your rebuttal. Are you claiming that Nielsen did not do a study of 395,000 listeners over the age of 12 using diaries? Also, could you help me understand why revenue declines for spot advertising has anything to do with the number of actual listeners to the radio on the FM band? Your original claim was that "almost no one listens to FM radio" but that's clearly not the case... failure to monetize the consumers have a particular media is not at all an indication of consumption of that media. 91% of Americans could be listening to public radio for all we know.

As someone who uses IntelliJ at the moment, this is an interesting thought to me. What would your workflow look like? In-IDE terminal + Vim for code editing and the rest of the IDE for refactoring, running code, etc.?

Or did you mean use Vim bindings in IntelliJ?
There is no part time as a med student. I was md/phd and dropped the md because no time to do both reasonably well. You can eventually be a part time doctor but have to pay many years of dues giving 100% effort. It's not dissimilar from being a startup founder.
No, I am completely serious. This is how things work in big organizations.
I too resent that climate science has become politicized, however large groups of people refusing to engage in any discussion is not the only issue here. Those that label anyone who question any facet of climate science as skeptics or deniers are just as much a part of the issue.

As someone who has worked in science for several years, questioning is central to understanding any scientific inquiry--especially with regard to such an incredibly complex and nuanced field as climatology. If these questions are continuously suppressed our understanding will ultimately be skewed.

I only hope that we can continue this discourse on such an important subject without resorting to immediate emotional responses in order to come to the most accurate picture that we possibly can.
Ansible – Interacting with External REST API
I am going to guess that there aren't any women in this thread..
If something takes out the 215,000 cell towers in the us, I wonder if that something will affect the 27,000 FM Radio towers as well - some of which are co located on the same masts.

The government has no financial incentive to turn a profit - All the proceeds would go to back to government projects or be wasted on bureaucracy. Nobody who works for government at any point in the chain could benefit financially from this; that is why the government is far more trustworthy than Mark Zuckerberg and his executive friends.

The idea that a few wealthy FB shareholders can profit from using other people's data to manipulate those people's behaviour illustrates the problem very clearly.

What's worse is that even if you are not susceptible to FB's targeted advertising directly, FB will trick your friends and family into a particular behaviour pattern and then force you to follow suite.

It's just like when FB was in its early growth stages; even people who resisted joining FB initially gave in once all their friends had joined up... People would get offended if you didn't add them as friends on Facebook. It's the same principle at play here except it's around lifestyle and consumerism.

I actually think that this "don't trust the government" propaganda was masterminded by tech companies (on the back of the Edward Snowden drama) to help their own corporate agendas.

50 years ago, it would never have even occurred to anyone that a profit-making entity could be more trustworthy than the government because it makes absolutely no sense.
I second this. Even without chatter a spinning HDD is quite noticeable while fans are not that noisy as long as you are able to keep them at moderate speeds.
WordPress and Update Signing
> but WP can get you cheap devs fast

Beware that you get what you pay for. If you need a high-traffic capable product with lots of modern web stack in (like React and some WebSocket thingies) and you plan to choose a fresh stack then going with WP might just be total productivity killer on the project.

WP is not a place to build your custom stuff on top of. I worked on several projects where we used WP headless, as an admin interface (since web master teams love it), but relinquish all the template rendering to an app framework (Rails in our case). We open sourced the infrastructure of it[1].

Not that Rails is so fast, but we knew it well and caching/ integrations with APIs/ ElasticSearch are all quite straight forward in Rails.

I have trouble understanding Vim as well. It seems to be good at code editing, where I find that I'm not bottlenecked there. I'm bottlenecked at my ability to plan and think about programs.

Once I have either a plan or comprehension of a program, I move at lightspeed, and typing becomes a small proportion of software production time. When editing an unknown codebase, it becomes even more imperative to have comprehension + plan before making an edit.

Also, since its my ability to comprehend and plan that is so strained, I'm not sympathetic to Vim's lack of anything like intellisense, or cross-file grammar and type awareness + autocomplete.
You can't. I am a senior who still gets things flagged at code review. It's not an exam, but a form of quality control. Best to ask the reviewer why each time. Decide if you agree with them. Sometimes it is a matter of taste as someone else said.

Learning SOLID etc will go some way to help.
Poor people leaving a city increases the quality of life for (richer) people that remain? That's not the obvious result of gentrification. I didn't say cities should optimise for quality of life, but quality of life should be an important consideration in the generation of policy. Other factors like cultural diversity also need to be taken into account, as well as mixing people with different income levels. I have found apartments in Berlin, for instance, that I was unable to rent because they had maximum income caps (and very low ones).
I think you may be right, I write some code as part of my job, but it is not my main job. I fell on Atom purely because I was trying Atom out at the time when I happened to get into a larger than normal project. Otherwise I would probably have stuck with Sublime (from which it obviously takes some inspiration).

I have had to do a little with Visual Studio in the past, and I feel like you spend more time learning the IDE than you do learning to code. I think I will stick with Atom and leave Vim, Emacs et al to the full timers!

You can't drive a foreign car if you are a permanent resident in Denmark, I think. People in my workplace used to try what you suggest, but it doesn't work. If police stops you and they discover you are in fact living in Denmark you will get an enormous fine.

Leasing is usually a better deal in this case. You can get a small car for around 1500 kr / month.

Sweet!! It is a funny situation, isn't it? We have a natural organism that does quite literally suck CO2 out of the air and replace it with O2, which we just so happen need to breathe.

and yet many actors from many different societal origins are chopping down trees for furniture, building, fuel, etc etc. If the answer is as simple as "hire a bunch of people to plant trees", then it makes one wonder why money hasn't been diverted for this either at a governmental or charity level
