Super 6 Trends That a Mobile App Development Company Should Not Ignore
I use jOOQ - I like the benefits of having the static type checking but the ease of expressing with a SQL like DSL.

Plus it plays very nicely with kotlin :)
In my current project (work) I've chosen to use JDBI for communication between model and database. For me it is the perfect level of abstraction whereby it still feels like I'm just writing SQL queries but also avoiding a lot of the boilerplate code that comes with having to manually manage DB connections.

I still have to write the actual code that maps the result set to objects, but I've found this is a very small tax to pay, especially with Kotlin's data classes.

I used an ORM in a previous job (RoR ActiveRecord). I didn't find it an altogether horrible experience, but there where many cases where we would get these 'leaky abstractions' in the wrong direction from the model -> database schema. There were also a lot of cases where we would realise that some ActiveRecord query we were doing was unintentionally loading entire tables into memory (our fault, not ActiveRecord's fault). This was usually remedied quite easily by just RTFMing the docs, but my feeling is we could have avoided it in the first place if we'd used a lower level strategy.

Personally, when developing a new feature I always like to start by thinking about the database representation first and then working my way up. I think having this sensitivity to how it should be represented in the database can allow you to avoid many of the pitfalls that may come with using a more opaque ORM.

Another valuable attribute I get from using JDBI is it's dead easy to mock (like heavyweight ORMs), so unit testing stuff that interacts with it is super simple.
You could squeeze much more bitcoin out of yourself if you powered asic miner with a bicycle but I can appreciate low capital costs of pencil method.
I think GP meant that you can't/it's hard to test the stored procedures themselves. In this case if you mock the database calls you will not test the database logic.
Yup. It doesn't take much to make an SMT LED shine - just a milliamp or two, and an interesting property of that kind of inductive coupling is that, up to a limit, you can couple a higher voltage out of a given signal by increasing the number of turns in your winding. And if you couple out more than the forward voltage of your LED junctions, you can convert the surplus into enough current to visibly light the LEDs as they conduct. So with the right kind of boost circuit - in this application probably just an inductor, although I could be wrong here, analog isn't my forte - driving the LEDs, and a bare-die CMOS shift register that sips a few microamperes for the animation, you can pretty easily produce the kinds of effects I remember seeing back in the before time too - and still miss to this day!

RFID works by the same principle, incidentally - in this case, the energizing signal comes
from a primary winding in the reader housing, and the secondary in the card powers a little CMOS chip that in cheaper models just modulates the voltage drop over the winding to return a constant code, and in more expensive models receives a challenge nonce signaled by the card reader and modulates the winding to return an encrypted response. It's a really interesting application, and an impressive but often overlooked early example of "IoT" style smarts done well.

Of course, but it would be cool if you could also calculate the public component on paper (and ideally verify it computerless as well). You could really create your bitcoin/ether/etc wallet with the public key only, whilst having an extremely low attack surface (private key never touches computer memory).
A marketing document does not convince me. But even if I take this at face value, they’re talking about estimating future movements based on current trajectory, which is fine and good, but not the scenario raised by the OP.

If I see a child standing near the side of the road, I use more than the velocity and trajectory of the child to estimate future behavior: I look at the direction the child is facing, the overall situation (e.g. is the child playing a game?), what the child is paying attention to, and so on. A child waiting at a bus stop is a dramatically different scenario than a child looking across the street at a puppy. A short adult standing on the side of the road is dramatically different than a child.

This is a hard problem involving multiple levels of recognition and inference. I have little faith that it is solved. My suspicion is that the “engineering solution” is used (i.e. slow down when a human-probable object is near the road). That might work, but will lead to a car thar drives like a paranoid senior citizen with bad eyesight.

I have a suspicion that we’re going to look back in a decade and realize that most of these problems are fundamentally intractable, and that the best any system can do is react via human-encoded heuristics. If so, the path to full autonomy will be an asymptotic one; it will not happen quickly, but through decades of gradual refinement, with lots of fatalities along the way.

Unfortunately I agree. I strongly suspect investors exhibit survivor bias, and assume causation where there is none. That's not to say it's all luck, or that they're dumb. Instead I feel they're simply unconsciously expert: they don't actually know what makes them good at what they do. Asking them how they do it elicits guesses. The fact that the guesses all sound the same suggests that either they're true, or there's an echo-chamber.

There was a link posted here some months ago where an investor gave a frank account of how hard it is to invest, and how frequently he made terrible decisions and got burned, how time consuming it was, and so on. I think he actually said "don't become an investor if you want to make money, do it because you want to help people". Shame I can't find it now.

The better way is to transition to identity networks. The sybil attack is a function of the low cost of identities. In the current stack, IP addresses play a dual role of locators and identifiers. This is bad engineering and leads to the current situation. The Host Identity Protocol (HIP) has been in use by boeing and the US army for years now. The revised version (HIPv2) hasn't seen an open-source implementation yet. If someone with enough time and skill wants to change the world, a good implementation of HIPv2 will have a very positive impact.

Even this non-political version got hidden very fast. No free speech here, nothing to see. Why has it turned to such a toxic place here on his website?
Agreed. I'd say my point still stands because duplicated database calls affect performance and scalability and this can grind the project to a halt at a certain point. Also this refactor is much more dangerous/probably buggy.

On the other hand refactoring your data logic is just business as usual, and you will probably do it in both cases anyway.

>Of course the reality is that a successful San Francisco restaurant makes millions of dollars per year.

Selection bias anyone? Of course a 'successful' $X makes money, it wouldn't be successful otherwise. That tells us nothing on how many restaurants had to fail in relation to the ones that did well. From a hypothetical investor's point of view if 1 out of 10 restaurants does well enough to earn a payback and you would have to put $1 million in each one to get it started, then the one that succeeds has to profit at least $10 million for the investor alone. Yea, seems like a pretty high risk environment.

My experiences have led me to the standpoint that most ORMs handle three major things:

1. provide idiomatic domain-object oriented query interface which it in turn translates to SQL

2. provide CRUD sql generation

3. provide some sort of session-based object lifecycle change tracking and management

#1 - The generated SQL is important on many levels. As things like HQL/linq/<your QL here> deviates further from the generated sql transparency is lost. SQL is normally brittle compared to your domain language which has better testability and type safety but still you have a handful of queries where it feels more sensible to write the SQL yourself.

#2 - Code which reflects on a type and generates basic insert/select/update/delete is usually pretty naive and easily done. With the exception of complicated legacy databases and iBatis-style tools ORMs which only support #2 arent really worth bothering.

#3 - I've found this to be the real benefit of an ORM. Being able to scope object lifecycles into clear units of work, buffer pending changes until a discrete point and get scoped caches for "free" have been hugely beneficial.

Each ORM unfortunately/inevitably come with great learning curve. It seems to unfortunately/inevitably bring lots of new concepts and conventions to the table required for the user simply must understand. Sometimes it requires you to re-arrange the way you may write your code to be more session-oriented.

I dont like the idea of AI managing how/when to apply changes to storage media. AI can be smart and efficient yes but you lose that important transparency/predictability. On the contrary I prefer very dumb/mechanical/predictable ORM, something not elegant but the behavior of what happens when is well-understood and easily scaled out to a large team. In my experience hibernate, EF, sqlalchemy have that sort of dumb/predictable behavior (however the SQL they sometimes generate can be performant but unreadable).
That guy, how he dresses, the wristbands, the pictures on the wall, steam-punk lamp... Most contrived thing I've seen in a VERY long time. Which is a pity in that I needed to forcibly focus myself on what he was saying, in spite of my bias. Because maybe he might have had something useful to say.

In the limit it's indeed the max of the absolute differences, so that's how you conventionally define the infinity norm (even though the base formula itself is not well defined, just as with 0). And when you try to minimise the max of the distances, you get the midrange.

> My standard example why it sometimes does matter: PersonDAO.fetchAll().size() is silly because it forces the database to fetch all Person objects, send them over the network, your application creates the necessary objects for them - and then you throw it all away again because all you needed was the number of people. PersonDAO.count() is much better, even if you have to implement it yourself.

I mean, PersonDAO.fetchAll().size() is just bad code. You probably need to know how to write ifs properly before programming? You need to know about databases before using an ORM.

First the caveats: My pressure-cooked bread tastes delicious to me, but I experiment so my results vary. Most batches wouldn't make it into a bakery.

For one thing, I start with wheat berries that I turn into flour in my blender. I blend some to fine flour so it gets doughy, but some course, which gives more texture and, I hear, lowers the glycemic load or something like that.

For another, I add flavors. I started with garlic and onions, then moved to banana, carrot, apple, cocao powder, etc, and various combinations, usually based on what's in season at the farmers market. The one I made over the weekend had banana, cranberry, and ginger.

Here's the recipe I started with, though I use water instead of milk to keep it vegan.

- 2 cups (250g) all purpose flour

- 1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate baking soda (not baking powder)

- 1 teaspoon salt

- 1 1/4 cup (270g)whole milk plain yogurt (or sour milk, or milk with 1¼ tablespoons of vinegar)

- water in pressure cooker under the metal container the dough goes in

Instructions:

1. Oil metal container so bread doesn't stick

2. Mix everything

3. Pressure cook high presser 15-20 minutes with 1/2 cup water under the metal container

I've only done soda bread, working my way to yeast.

My metal container happens to be my rice cooker bowl. I don't use the rice cooker any more, but the bowl fits perfectly in the pressure cooker. To keep the metal bowl from touching the pressure cooker's teflon, I cut some potatoes and put them in the water, so I get a few pressure-cooked potatoes in the process.

These pages have pictures that helped, although my bread is much more grainy and brown:

>you're already behind the curve.

SQL syntax is extremely verbose, and compounds the more tables are involved in a query. You're not counting the time the ORM has saved you before having to resort to logging SQL.
Those real facts were mixed with opinions e.g. "As if, somehow, the founders of the USA, are responsible for all evils in the world"
One of the most endless and pointless debates.

99% of the time, an ORM is fantastic and will make you more productive while providing performance, security, and maintainability. They come in many sizes from thin wrappers around a db connection to full-featured frameworks.

For the other 1%, use raw SQL, or perhaps a query building tool to help with parameterization, composability, etc. In fact, modern ORMs will even let you input raw SQL and handle the conversion back to objects if you need it.

Saying ORMs are always wrong is just as dumb of a statement as saying all database access needs to be in raw SQL. They are just a tool and abstraction, like everything else you use in software development. You know the right time to use it.

That being said, not knowing SQL at all means a lack of general understanding in how relational databases work and will almost always cause problems.
