Don't take my word for it, but I think it depends on circumstance.

If you have regular other channels to thank the introducer, you can do it there (say you see them at lunch, or on the weekend at some serendipitous place, you have a call to them later for something unrelated)

If you don't communicate frequently, then yeah, go ahead and thank them in a separate email.

If you comm with them frequently then just piggyback the mention in that other message.

Also depends on the importance to them and to you. Does it mean anything to them? Does it mean a lot to you?

Worst-case global warming scenarios not credible, says study
Modern society requires us to endure the daily grind and push our deepest thoughts and urges away. We are taught to fear our inner demons more than anything.

We need accomplishment, entertainment and distraction because we're supposed to live like we have no choice. But we have, and nobody can save us from ourselves.

Changing jobs, leaving your family, moving to another city.. we all have some deep urges we keep suppressing, ranging from trivial to life-changing, and to keep them away, we cover them with fears that unearth when the distraction pauses and make us seek more distraction before we notice our real issues.

> But also a workaround, right? Because it's not actually declarative, it's APIs that are made to look declarative-ish.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean...

In an ideal world "API" would be a keyword, similar to how "class" is a keyword for declaring/defining classes. Example:

API MyApi {
constructor(defaultName) {
this.defaultName = defaultName;
}

/** some description */
method: get
route: /hello-world
scopes: some-permission-string || other-permission-string
{
let name = request.query.name;
if (!name) {
name = this.defaultName;
}
response.send('hello ' + name);
}

}
module.exports = MyApi; // similar to how you would export a class in JS

I think something _like_ this will be doable using rust macros in the future (if not already on nightly).

Whilst my JS code, where I create an API object and call API.declare(...) for each route isn't as neat as having an "API" keyword and code-generation for said keyword, it's pretty close.

I just write the API.declare(...) as something that collects arguments, and then those can be instantiated multiple times... Similar to how a class can be instantiated multiple times.

I do similar things for loading components that depend on each other: declare dependencies, define function for loading using said dependencies -- then have some library code construct a function that loads any desired component with maximum concurrency (by analysing the DAG).

> that we’re outraged and shocked when they decide they no longer have to.

Who's outraged? Maybe some places were caught by surprise at the change in policy (perh no fair warning), but I don't recall any outrage. It's their right to refuse. I mean, its a bit different from say OPEC in the 70s suddenly artificially constraining supply --no one would like the US to constrain wheat or corn exports for example.

But this is altogether different. It's probably a good thing as people may be forced to think more in a cradle-to-grave product life-cycle and thus make things with that built-in.

Given the added costs, it may well bring a few jobs back home to boot.

Agreed. Ultimately we all want the best software to win. Which means we sometimes have to hear people out, regardless of whether there's self interest involved on the author's part.
I suspect you're looking for some sort of iron clad algorithmic solution that is good for all cases, that's not how it works. The answer is the same as always: eternal vigilance. An educated and engaged electorate. A functional media. And the ability of the government to course correct as necessary. Institutions that feel they are accountable to the will of the electorate. There are, of course, many examples of this not working, but there are examples of it working as well (trust busting around the turn of the 20th century, the breakup of ma-bell, etc.)
I used to listen to podcasts while running or walking, but eventually found that they were replacing the 'quiet time' that my brain would otherwise be using to mull over work or home challenges I was facing.

As a programmer, I've discovered that I almost always do better work, faster, if I've been taking my walks and exercise without audio entertainment. Don't know whether that happens for other people as well, but it's been pretty consistent for me.

(I do still wear cheap earbuds during exercise, though; you get far fewer interruptions when people assume you won't be able to hear them!)
> The problem is more about the underlying unit being text.

I think richer editing, in effect editing the AST, rather than the concrete syntax is interesting.

But I'm not convinced that it's a blocker for making more declarative code. I think macros will get us very very far. The procedural stuff in rust, has me really excited about the future.

The downside of not using text as the underlying unit of truth is that you have to reinvent an IDE, version control, conflict resolution, review tools, etc. That takes a LOT of buy-in.

If you can 90% of syntactic sugar required from macros (and the like), you can work on the actual abstractions / declarations instead of the compiler toolchain.

Just my two cents.
No way. Some of them did the smart thing BTFD.

[citation needed], as the very next paragraph of GP's asks:

> Has anyone actually made a complex project with these initiatives, and had it spark an interest in computing/electronics that didn't already exist? Have they managed to make the jump from visual interfaces to lines-of-code? Is there any evidence that these programs REALLY help when it comes to engaging a wider group of people?

--

Personally, I'm not sure if "visual programming" itself is introducing anything useful to make education easier. The difficult thing in getting started in writing code isn't writing, it's all the bullshit you have to do to set things up (installing a compiler, editor / IDE, creating projects, generating boilerplate code, deploying, etc.). Make that simple, and learning to code becomes simpler too.

About the only case where I can imagine "visual programming" being better than writing code is if you're trying to teach 3-5 y.o.
The Transbay Terminal is in a lot more convenient location than SFO. Lyft to-and-from the airport adds $60 to your fare.

Also, I don't know what the price model will be. In Italy, for instance, you buy a ticket reflecting the route you want to take and you can get on any train you want. Miss the 4:05? Take the 4:25. I wouldn't be surprised if this was similarly flexible. Most airlines, on the other hand, charge change fees unless you are a frequent flyer.

I wonder at this point whether the causality isn't reversed. I.e. it's not LabVIEW that's popular because visual programming works for engineering; it's engineers doing visual programming because LabVIEW is the industry-standard fad, stuck in the self-reinforcing loop of universities teaching it because companies use it, and companies using it because potential candidates all know it.

The diluvial [flood] nature of modern media leaves us little time to pause. The challenge, then, is to cultivate the patience and the discipline necessary to engage more deeply than the modern world allows. Just because we are flooded doesn't mean we have to drown.

HN user kenning summarized it this way (talking about Facebook specifically, but I believe the comment applies):

I think cigarettes are a great comparison. I heard it a few years back.

When popular, a huge amount of the population used cigarettes despite growing research showing that it had a slight but consistent harmful effect. A hooked individual is unlikely to stop using even when given this evidence, as the product is addictive and gets stronger with network effects. Younger generations understood the harm better and had to avoid regular temptation to engage.

Not exactly related to NeoPG, but GPGME in general: Doesn't GPGME assume that the user already has GnuPG 2.x installed and running on their system?

This might just be a misconception I have, but I always thought you couldn't make a batteries-included, self-contained, works-out-of-the-box app if you used GPGME. You'd first have to tell the user to go get a GnuPG implementation from somewhere.

I'd be super happy to be wrong on this.

That sentence is not a completely accurate account of what happened. The error was not in a "different subsystem", it was in the same subsystem as the verified code: the executive. The code was structured as a verified kernel with unverified application code written on top of it. The verification proved that the code would be free of deadlocks if the application code used the kernel operations exclusively, and did not directly use any primitives like mutexes, but it turned out that this design rule was violated.

Are you sure? I don't know much about US agriculture exports, but the aggressively subsidised exports from the EU are known to cripple agriculture in Africa.

The way one ecology prof I had put it was along the line of, "The marketing guys wasted a lot of paper and plastic and ink to come up with the slogan 'Reduce, Reuse, Recycle' - and all the producers heard was "RECYCLE, Reuse, reduce" - with that last word being whispered. He then went on to talk about waste materials, about food waste and the related ecological damage, the lack of composting, and similar topics. American business doesn't work if people are encouraged to reduce (or as the average American will see it, 'deprive' ourselves). Reusing means that less products get sold, so the producers create one-use items with guaranteed obsolescence, and then slap a licensing agreement on top so that you don't actually own the item you paid for.

> It feels like double dipping if we expect them to pay taxes on repatriating the money and then also taxing the wages that the repatriated money allows them to pay.

That is how our federal government constantly engages in double taxation. A corporation makes money + pays taxes, then pays employees who pay taxes. Those employees buy goods and services as well as have their own companies, all of which pay taxes on their incomes.

After five layers of this double-dipping, an initial million dollars only has $327,000 left, with the other two thirds having been paid in taxes (at an average of only 20%). Many people pay far more than 20% in federal taxes. The federal government takes in taxes most of every dollar this way.
I used to buy my guitar controllers with their respective game (on amazon and such), it was always cheaper than the controller alone. I don't know what to do with the spare GHTV games, though...
Pretty sure constraining supply would have a ripple effect on food prices everywhere because those two grains are the basis for much of "processed" foods as well as feed for meat producers, etc.

What poor African counties arguably don't need is "dumped" donated aid which undercuts their farmers and weakens their agriculture and makes them increasingly dependent on foreign aid as well as enriches and strengthens the position of those in charge of distributing this largesse (i.e. corrupt local officials)

Thanks for laying out your thought process. I definitely see your point about it being an issue that gets much more painful as you grow. We do have a decent number of smaller teams using EnvKey so far, but my sense is that most were not replacing an Ansible/Ansible Vault-like setup, but instead saw it as a simple way to put any form of secrets management in place.

The comparison to LaunchDarkly is interesting. When first hearing about the idea of a feature flagging service, I do remember thinking "why does anyone need a service for this?" but as you say, the complexity grows very quickly.

I'm hoping to convince smaller teams that it's worthwhile for them to spend a few minutes and a few dollars up front to make secrets and configuration an area that is secure and 'just works' so they never have to worry about it again, but it's probably true that larger teams are a more natural fit.
Ah thanks.
Thanks for the citation. I'm a bit skeptical of Zillow's numbers; they look pretty volatile (e.g. they show 2016 with 0% appreciation)

Anyway, according to zillow last 2 years is 7% average - and since depth of recession 8 years ago, 8.6%. 12.8% is likely a statistical abnormality.
(Of note 10 year average is 5% vs. ~8.5% for SP-500 index funds)

I don't think we all want the best software to win. If you're the CEO of a software company then you want your software to win even if you know it's not the best. You might choose to write articles about how the other software is actually worse because there are lots of hidden costs. If you did that then you'd need to make it very obvious that you have a partisan opinion though, otherwise it'd look quite dishonest.
I figured this would be the case for some folks. Do you mind sharing a bit of additional info so people can better understand what traits lead people to feel this way?
