Ask HN: How do you translate a dynamic website into different languages?
What are some approaches for translating a dynamic website or web app into different languages?

For example, do you place all the copy and error messages into separate files which are then loaded by the app depending on the language chosen?

How do you keep translations in sync when copy in one language is updated?

And finally, if you have an open source project that relies on volunteer translators, how do you verify the quality of the translations?
Is it time to put boingboing in the same category of sources as the Daily Mail. Not awful like the mail, more entertaining, sure, nicer people - absolutely. But yeah as a source for literally anything that might inform an opinion? I'm going to have to get a citation from somewhere else.

What is the Rusty way of handling memory management for a game engine client deployed on WebAssembly? When a program is running a game loop, there are certain entities which will stick around across frames, and there are certain entities which definitely will not. Is there a way to enforce that most of the implementation of the game reside in pure functions, while making memory management nearly bulletproof?
Regarding formal proof systems, not only can they contain logic errors, they are still very far from being usable for the common programmer to do regular programming.

Yeah because VC money drove up the price of online advertising to insane levels which bootstrapped companies could no longer compete with and then they hoarded up all the blogs with constant streams of articles... There was a long period when VCs essentially owned all the popular tech blogs. Bloggers would not dare to cover any product which was not backed by VC money for fear that it would ruin their future prospects.

In effect, VCs used their money to gain a monopoly on user attention and this killed off a LOT of bootstrapped companies which would otherwise have strived.
Can you point to the documentation for that? Your CMS is cool, I'd like to use it with a self hosted server.

Thanks!
A generally interesting study subject.

But it seems not quite thought through.

Projects might only invest in unit tests once a project exceeds a certain complexity, or has seen refactorings with age which made the need for tests clear.

I'm not sure how to normalize properly, but maybe projects solving a similar problem could be compared. Like different ORMs or Databases or Kernels.

I deleted my Facebook in 2010 and it stayed deleted until the end of 2016. Now I get invited to more events, my friends no longer feel like distant strangers when I see them for the first time in months and I know how all my family is doing. It really sucks seeing how much more of a life some people have through facebook but research is a lifestyle and I knew what I signed up for. Your miles may vary though as I have the discipline to not look at it every hour(not because I'm intrinsically any better than you but because I got used to running mental marathons for 6 years).
More trade work, war, education crash, hiring reform... All good means, but what is the end? Lower unemployment? I'll take it, but I'm talking about something slightly different: Happy children (and people in general).

If people are thriving they will be more productive, more receptive and more motivated. This is not controversial and by now well established in business practice, but it's pretty far down the list of what we endow our children and students. Of course the dean will say all these things, but they're platitudes and the money says otherwise. It's just not a priority.
Mainstreaming HPC Codes Will Propel the Next GPU Wave
>> As an aside, the current ingresses (including the Nginx one and Google's own GLB one) all have annoying deficiencies

Agree, this is along the lines of what I meant. For example GCE ingress allows you to reference a global static IP while this is not possible with solely nginx ingress due to limitations with the TCP load balancer. There are separate ingress annotations for GKE/nginx/haproxy, etc. If I want to use the global-static-ip GCE annotation, this will make it a little harder to move to Azure.
Did you read the article? It picks out specific differences, like the rate of seat belt usage -- higher in other countries than in the US, even though self belts are mandatory just about everywhere.

"The US has laxer laws and doesn't enforce them as strictly" is a very simple explanation that fits the data well. It matches what I personally have seen in the US and UK, though of course that's just anecdotal.

I'm not sure if the US is ahead of the curve at all in safety tech -- things like ABS and airbags, right? The US is definitely behind the curve in adoption of traffic circles / roundabouts rather than 4-way stops.

You're correct that there could be some other reason why the US could have a higher "baseline" rate of traffic accidents; but what could that reason be? Any suggestions?

Possibly the US has a higher proportion of young drivers?
> I'm thinking it'd look something like, "kannst du Deutsch?", where the sprechen is implied.

What I can imagine what you might have had in mind when you wrote your post is something like "Willst du nach Hause?" or "Ich will nach Hause", where indeed that verb of movement is missing.

In my opinion (but I am not a linguist or teacher of German) is that in German these verbs "können" (as in your example) or "wollen" are used somewaht differently in German than in English:

If one asks "Willst du nach Hause?", one only asks whether the person would prefer to (with which method is undefined) to get home. If you ask "Willst du nach Hause gehen?", it asks the question with a concrete way to get to home ("gehen").

Similar things (though more subtile) hold for your "kannst du Deutsch?" example. Formulated this way it does not specify in which way the other person is capable of German (speaking, understanding, writing etc.). The answer will to this question will often give a hint in which way the answerer is capable of German (speaking, understanding, writing etc.). If you want to ask specifically whether the person is capable of German in a specific way, you add this to your question, such as "Kannst du Deutsch sprechen" (though it would be more idiomatic to formulate this as "Sprechen Sie (auch) Deutsch?").

> I can't rely on intuition to say whether something like, "werden wir ins Bett", sounds right without gehen.

This is clearly not correct German. I think you perhaps meant "Wollen wir ins Bett?", which is nevertheless still rather colloquial (better use "Wollen wir ins Bett gehen?"),
Ask HN: What is the market for developer tools like?
How big of a market do you feel developer tools are - IDEs, IDE plugins, build tools, monitoring tools etc? Is there space for small companies to build something and survive profitably here?

For now, we don't :( These sorts of things are designed to sell in large lots to people who aren't allowed to test their nuclear weapons in meatspace.
navmarri@iu.edu, but why?
There is much to be learned from incomplete, toy implementations. Not least, the interested reader can see if they can extend the existing implementation to include the missing features.

Insisting that learners/students should only ever read and study complete, perfect implementations is, I think, a mistake. I've learned a great deal from studying, and subsequently improving and extending, implementations that are imperfect and incomplete.
I remember reading about this concept (geez!) 20 years ago, though the sources were not as far as the moon [1]. I believe Isaac Asimov ranked civilizations based on the proportion of energy gathered from its main star.

That shouldn't be notably more efficient.

Sure, solar panels operate at a significantly higher efficiency on the moon due to no atmosphere to diffuse the sun's energy... but then you have to pay the atmosphere cost to get it to Earth.

Your suggestion presupposes that we can transfer energy through the atmosphere more efficiently than the energy of the sun is transferred through it.

We certainly could do so if we had a space elevator (but at that point just put the solar panels in geostationary orbit with the elevator, not on the moon).
Writing fast and safe native Node.js modules with Rust

> You gonna force people to buy dollars at gunpoint?

It's only a slight exaggeration to describe taxes like that. There are huge amounts of assets held under the jurisdiction of the US government (probably somewhere north of $100 trillion[1]) and a huge number of people who live under the jurisdiction of the US government (>300 million). If the owners of those assets or the people living in the US don't pay their tax bills, the government can resort to seizing their property to cover the tax bill or jailing the person who didn't pay. If they don't cooperate with that action, the government can send people with guns to force them to comply. Effectively, everyone who lives in or owns property in the US is forced to acquire dollars to pay their tax bill.

GBP inflation is currently less than 2%, and there are many very low risk options to account for it.

The fact that money sitting in a checking account depreciates due to inflation is a terrible argument for cryptocurrency. No one actually does that with any significant amount of capital.
you're right: one advantage to PEX is price of PEX itself. Other advantages: easier to install, no sweated joints, easy to color code, of no value to meth addicts. No sweating lowers the fire risk (which tbh is very low, but non zero).

I suspect even if PEX cost 5x copper tubing, the TCO for PEX would still be lower over the lifetime of the plumbing. Shipping and moving around a spool of PEX is much easier than monkeying with a load of copper tubing.

I wish the US would join Canada in dropping the penny.
Ask: Is it possible to combine two HD trees of key pairs to make a third tree?
1. PersonA locally generates an HD tree of key pairs (like a crypto HD wallet)

2. PersonB does the same resulting in two independent key trees

3. Together they create new key pairs for a third independent tree by combining their key pairs, for example:

(a) PersonA generates a key pair at specific path from their tree

(b) PersonB generates a key pair at same path from their tree

(c) PersonA and personB combine the public keys they generated _using some cool process_ to create a third public key

(d) PersonA and personB combine the private keys they generated _using some cool process_ to create the private key for that new public key

Anything like this possible?
The Mystery of the Phantom App Updates
That's true, but when you're paying per byte its in the ISPs' best interest to get you as many bytes as possible. I firmly believe that the reason most ISPs want to be able to throttle isn't some nefarious plan to prioritise friendly providers, but simply to advertise more bandwidth than they have - in the past that's been fine because most customers didn't use much. But now that IP has replaced dedicated video bandwidth in the form of cable and FTA, the usage patterns no longer support that, because most customers are using shitloads of bandwidth- and more importantly, they're all doing it at the same time when they get home from work and sit down to watch some telly.
Any tips on how to approach G.E.B.? I have tried a few times now, but it seemed simultaneously too dense and abstract.
Sure, you're right, it's not the same thing. I just gave a simple example of something that's close, but I'm not even using a bash function like that myself. If I did, though, I guess the 8th occurrence wouldn't be so bad in my book, since the results can be scanned rather quickly.

You could always make your function more clever, e.g.:

function mano() {
man "$1" | grep -A1 -- "$2\\b"
}

or

function mano() {
man "$1" | grep -A1 -- "$2 "
}

but most probably, you will still run into edge cases that won't work properly. For instance, only one of the two versions above still works with "test -e".
I'll wager that no one ventures to broach the third rail of internet discussion topics.
I can speculate as to why this would happen. People expect unit-tested code to have shorter methods because it's easier to write tests for shorter methods.

However, writing a new test for a new method can be harder than just stuffing that code in some other method that already has a test. Depending on how testing is enforced, you might be able to at get away with not having to do anything at all if the existing test still passes. If you're in a hurry and the test fails, just change the assertion to whatever happens. Is it right? I dunno, the test says it's working.

> But I don't have a decent solution to this conundrum.

I have. The German model is wrong for the reasons you allured to. If states can't be trusted to be arbiter of acceptable speech then they shouldn't have that job.

> And remember, the German constitution was written at the pleasure of the allies

That would be an appeal to authority and we all know US made few mistakes in the past so I'm not sure why you'd want to use that fallacy.

> This is largely cultural I'm sure.

Must be. Thinking that the state is always right and bossing people that disagree is historically very German.

Here's a small implementation of Kernel in around 700 lines of Haskell [https://github.com/vito/hummus/tree/master/src/Hummus]. Note that it's not Kernel proper, as it uses delimited continuations instead of the guarded undelimited continuations in the Kernel report, plus there's a few other differences and some bugs.

Anyone looking for a more complete implementation, check out klisp [http://klisp.org]. It's not 100%, but has some stuff not included in the Kernel report, some of it lifted from R6RS. The main thing it's missing which it desperately needs is an FFI.

In section "Genetics and long-term effects of caffeine" it goes a bit into details but here is relevant excerpt:
"The finding of lower COMT activity with higher risk of myocardial infarction points to involvement of circulating catecholamines in caffeine’s effect on cardiovascular system, with the implication that slow-metabolizing individuals could be at increased risk due to decreased ability to handle the stress associated with caffeine-induced catecholamine response."

Inspired by your post, I spent a few minutes reading the Allow web site. I'm wondering exactly how to benefit from Alloy? I have a problem that involves multiple interacting state machines communicating over protocols that I don't necessarily control, over unreliable network connections. Lots of retry/recovery arcs.

So assuming I could specify this system with Alloy, what would I learn? I'm guessing I would at least detect gaps in the protocols and missing error recovery arcs in state machines. But that doesn't yield a correct implementation... it might help me fill in gaps in the validation test coverage space. Is this what I should expect?
You can actually search for ' -l' (two spaces in front) and abuse the man layout engine to find the point at which the flag itself is defined. Makes the man pages a lot more useful in my opinion.

Zeronode – minimal building block for Node.js microservices
I feel like this issue needs more clarification.

Say you have complete disbelief in free will. Without free will, you just carry out a path which is already predetermined. In other words, you just carry out your destiny. It can be the case that you are destined to 'try to do good'. You do not choose to do good, you do good because it is in your nature.

More generally:

Regardless of belief, people are confronted with choice points where they have to choose A or B. Those who believe in free will believe that the choice is determined by an internal force which they associate with 'themselves'. Those who do not believe in free will believe that the choice is determined by some external force.

People make decisions in each scenario, the debate is over the ultimate force which drives the decisions.
I've touched on it on HN before but I also had a very, very bad trip once. It wasn't the first bad trip but it was the worst and one of the worst I've heard from people who I've shared the experience with. Out of the dozens or more positive experiences I had, it was enough to turn me off of psychedelics and drugs in general for, so far, the rest of my life.

I won't get in to the details, but like yourself, it mostly came down to the folks who I was with (who I trusted absolutely prior to this experience). I also had a lot of the blame, because I simply took too much that night. It took me years to fully recover my personality. To me, it is very dangerous, indeed, to suggest that nothing bad can come from psychedelic experimentation.
The way you present your doctor, if I told him I was taking 8 sleeping pills a day, he'd diagnose me with narcolepsy instead of telling me to cut back on the drugs.
