> The highest up on my wish list would be that - as I understand it - you can not currently exit the process cleanly (EDIT: early) with a non-zero exit code in stable rust.

You don't need any fancy features to do this. Every single one of my Rust CLI programs has done this on stable Rust for years. All you need to do is bubble your errors up to main.

If you have destructors that you want to run, then put those in a function that isn't main.
MySQL does not silently fail if strict sql_mode is in use, which has been the default since MySQL 5.7 (2015), and a recommended best practice for many years prior.

Yes, this really should have been the default from the start. It would have saved a lot of developers a lot of misery. But the past is the past. At least the default was finally fixed a few years back.

Many large companies using MySQL did proactively enable strict mode long before the default change, and they simply do not have any of these issues. That's a good thing considering the combined valuation of companies relying on MySQL is several trillion dollars. These companies do care about preserving data 100%, which is why strict sql_mode has existed as an option in MySQL for nearly 15 years now.
While PHP core and officially sanctioned extensions have long been bundled in source and binary distributions there has also been PECL and PEAR.

Karabiner is a great app.
Can you explain the difference?

I’ve written many RESTlike APIs (no hypermedia) and they mostly returned data. In fact, the whole premise is to be able to access resources which typically boils down to some data model response.
Except we largely know what the next MacBook Pro will be.

Same design. Same TouchBar. Same display. Same keyboard but with covers on the key to prevent dust (refer to recent patent). Upgrade to 6-core for 15inch, 4-core for 13-inch. Possibly 32GB maximum on 15inch.

Tim Cook has himself said it takes years for Apple to switch directions in their product line. And so since the current MacBook Pro is only a couple of years old it isn't likely we will see a dramatically different product.
Building Zero Trust Networks with Microsoft 365
That sort of rioting and destruction (namely, the election of Donald Trump) did happen again because we took a "tough shit" attitude to people who lost their jobs en masse to competition from free trade.

Unfortunately, I don't think the lesson was learned, because people mostly just demonize the displaced workers by calling them racists, bigots, and nazis so that they don't have to confront the fact that the magnifying lens of creative destruction might fry them next -- and their families and friends and children and town and any adjacent industry they might attempt to flee to.

On one hand, that's such a terrifying prospect that it's hard to blame people for wanting to avoid the thought of it, but on the other, we really, really need to find a way to address this, because it's a recurring theme that at best won't go away and at worst... well, I don't want to think about that either.

Scripting mturk violates the ToS
If only there were types in Elixir to get rid of those damn nulls...

Supposedly someone is making a Typescript-like precompiler for Elixir (with ML syntax of course). We are all hoping it succeeds!
If such a thing existed, so many of us would do it that it would stop being worth your time.

You're asking for easy money. That doesn't exist in a free market society.
I think I have about about 20 Mac Mini's for various roles around my office. Probably the most used computers / servers in our entire environment. They're starting to show their age though. One by one they are being retired.
What a tone deaf load of shit.

Here's the deal. Automation should mean the end of compulsory status as an employee. It should mean that we no longer need to fear poverty and homelessness, simply because we weren't feeling the bullshit rat race. It should mean that we can have a place to live, food to eat, clothes to wear, medicine to cure ailments, because production and accounting for such necessities is automatic.

Automation should mean that we get to take on the jobs we enjoy, or at least try to. Automation should mean that we get to throw the full weight of ourselves at our passion.

Automation should NOT mean:

We don't write your paycheck, so out in the cold with you.

That's not how automation should work.
Apple is a terribly profitable company, it does not pay karma to question them.
Apple really only has two major issues with the MBP right now: thermals and the update cycle.

Its absolutely unacceptable that we have to wait a full year after Intel's mobile chip releases before we see them trickle to the MBP. I understand that Apple operates on a scale other manufacturers don't match, but we saw 8750H laptops release to the public months before WWDC, but Apple will sit on their 7th gen laptops for another 6-8 months before releasing. Because "release cycles".

But even when they do come out: Apple doesn't understand professional grade thermal management. They put fans (or, fan) (or, no fans) in the machine that can spin up pretty high, but you'll never see the machine do it on its own. Instead, they prefer to thermal throttle the CPUs under any sustained workload, while the fans just spin at a whisper quiet whrr and the underside heats up to an uncomfortably hot level (because the machine itself is a heatsink, which conversely makes your lap part of the heatsink, thanks Apple [1])

I don't believe them for a second when they say that they still care about the Mac, as an organization and at their leadership levels. Its immensely frustrating. But the biggest frustration is that they (and Microsoft) are the only companies still making laptops with screens other than 16:9, which is a major component to professional sales. So even if you can get over not having MacOS (which is pretty darn easy to leave with how lackluster the latest releases have been), you're still left with a subpar hardware experience.

> On a spaceship one can create an environment tailored to our needs.

That seems pretty optimistic. I think the reality would be exactly the opposite: resources are extremely limited in space and there is much less room for error, which pretty much demands an authoritarian society where individual choice has to be severely curtailed, and the environment would be constrained by the same lack of resources.

Of course, the level of technology in the ship would determine just how bad it would have to be, but I don't see any future within the next thousand years or so where you could have an environment on a generation ship anything like what we have on Earth.

The best laptop I've ever used (I mostly use Mac's at home and at work) is the Panasonic Let's Note S line of PCs. The closest you can get to a MacBook Pro 15" performance (minus discrete graphics) in a 12" form factor, with plenty of full sized ports and even a DVD writer. Lighter than a 13" MacBook.

It supports TeX formatting/notation for math.

It uses mathjax under the covers.
That's nowhere near an obscene amount of computing power for any serious ML project.
This answers your question, but won't actually help you: I use the Windows 10 Calculator, which has a super handy programmer mode that does hex and binary and crud.

IMHO, I'd look for someone who's emulated/reimplemented a proper graphing calculator. I've never tried using https://www.numworks.com/simulator/ for realz, but it looks handy.
Ask HN: GTD tool for Windows that works with iOS?
Hey all - I currently manage 20+ people and depend on OmniFocus (on Mac and iOS) to keep track of everything to talk to them about in our 1:1s. I love the ability to set a due date, defer being reminded of the item until that date, and slice and dice by assigning actions to contexts. I also love the quick entry hotkey.

Does anyone know an equivalent app for Windows that would also work with an iOS phone? I'd like to get rid of my MBP but keep my iPhone.

Thanks!
Again, that describes the lot of much of humanity for most of existance. To call it unethical is to claim, not being a modern liberal American is unethical.

Of course I exaggerate. But I see this as a First World Ethical Problem.
I looked into this but shipping seems to eat way too much on each transaction.
Mac Mini is extremely expensive for the hardware you get. It's comparable in price and specs to a MacBook laptop minus display.

Thank you for clarifying.

As for the 500ms I wasn't thinking only network overhead, but also things like complex sql queries with lots of joins etc. And maybe on top of that going through a json-rest/soap endpoint:

Client > graphql server > rest endpoint 1..3 > [sql server, document db, key-value store]

Where the graphql server takes a query, fetches and merges resources, and sends the result back to the client. (and as you mention, maybe rest and rest are external services)

If it's just:

Client > graphql > documentdb

(since your link mentions wiki...) - I'm not sure I see that graphql is a great benefit (but I'm perfectly open to that being wrong; as I said, I've only just begun looking at graphql).
Makes sense, but that's kind of sad... would be a fun game to try to build AIs for things that people think they can't while using light enough compute resources to make it worthwhile for the pennies you make from most mturk activities.

I'd even opt-out of taking the money for the entertainment value.
I'm still using a late `09 mini with 8GB ram and an SSD drive. It's still working fine for web app dev work. This has been the best Mac I've ever owned. I would love to see a new Mac Mini come out and I've been ready to buy one and waiting on them to announce the new models for awhile now.

That said, I'm ready to move over to a Linux Desktop now if Apple ditches the product entirely. I don't want to, but I know I'll do fine with it.
Eh, as far as I know I'm the only one doing that, and even then only as an experiment/playground, and I don't have the time to work on it lately (have to pay the bills after all).

It's not compiling to elixir, but the `alpaca` language compiles to the BEAM (via erlang core I think) so it gets you close, although they are not black boxing messages sadly.

If you know of someone else doing typing experiments on top of elixir, please link me (my playground code is on my github repo somewhere)!!!
Do you have projects in mind? What languages are you most used to? That might help you decide. Learning a very different language is fun and useful.

Most Windows PCs which ship with precision drivers and an oversized glass trackpad feel 90% as good as the MacBooks. The Surface line and the new Razer Blade 15 are two examples.

The precision drivers are key. Many manufacturers still haven't adopted them, and they are the main reason why Windows trackpads still get a bad rep.
I hadn't heard of your service and just looked at it. If you're willing, a few questions I didn't see answered on the website:

From what I can tell, every incoming call rings simultaneously on the user's phone and Nomorobo's systems. If Nomorobo detects a blacklisted number, you pickup the call, play a 'you've been blocked' message, and hangup. Is that basically correct?

So Nomorobo ends up with a log of all my incoming calls. What happens with that data? Nomorobo is free for landlines (which I think means VOIP lines); is data collection the tradeoff?

Also, can I submit a whitelist, to prevent important numbers from being blocked? And is that list confidential?

Finally, do you work with old-fashioned POTS landlines? I'm interested in Nomorobo for an elderly couple who still have POTS.
My dad lost his job when I was 7 years old and my sister was 5. He went through 5 years of un- and under-employment. It was harrowing for him and my mom. But he also said in his later years that he would not have been there to see his kids growing up if he'd maintained the steady career progression that he originally expected. I have many fond memories of doing things with my dad during those years. He showed me how to start programming the family Commodore 64 [1]. We did experiments from books of science fair projects -- not for science fairs, just to satisfy my curiosity. We went on camping and fishing trips during summers and school vacations. When I visited friends' houses their dads didn't show up until later in the evening. They were also usually too tired from work to play or work on projects with us like my dad did when I had friends over.

I wouldn't wish involuntary unemployment on anyone. My family was lucky that my dad found steady salaried work again before the savings account was completely drained. The stress could have broken a weaker marriage. But I also got something from my dad's extra availability that I wouldn't even have known to miss until adulthood otherwise. Kids will remember and cherish extra engagement with them, whether the time you put in is planned or not.

[1] I partially credit my own career to his early help with programming. My friends growing up used 8 bit home computers too. But they didn't have dads working through the C64 Programmer's Reference Guide with them. They learned just enough to load/run software and I learned to write my own. I know that some kids can just pick up a teach-yourself book and learn simple programming on their own. 9-year-old me couldn't. I needed help from my dad. (Thanks, Dad. I miss you.)

I believe that is a side effect of increased productivity and prosperity but is this study conditioned on the children having dads in first place? Because I believe single mother phenomenon is on a rapid rise in USA. What about children who dont know their dads ?
I'm always amazed by the story of Shockley (repeated here). He was surely a smart guy, didn't he at any point stop to think that his own behaviour might be the root cause of his problems, and at least not in his best interests?
Not completely true. Apple sucks, and as a result of that iOS development is clearly more convenient on Mac OS.

I would also clearly prefer windows for projects supposed to run on windows servers, and Linux for projects supposed to run on Linux. Mac OS Server is utter crap and completely useless, so Apple doesn't have that going for it.

The zero sum effect of cryptocurrency displacing central banks is only one part of the potential set of effects. There's also the potential impact of cryptocurrency revolutionizing finance the way the internet revolutionized communication, and that has broad-based benefits for all interest groups.
Mindfulness makes people less motivated
>Unless we make it happen. By instituting a UBI for instance. Or expanding human rights to include food and shelter.

In the US, that's going to be a difficult sell. States threatened to secede over the ACA and that was nowhere near as "socialist" as a universal income or right to food and shelter would be.

It could happen, but it seems like it would take a serious social and political upheaval, and the winds currently seem to be blowing in the other direction entirely. I hope it doesn't take something on the scale of the Great Depression to bring it about.
That's the point. Apple generally doesn't make forward-looking statements about its tech. They say that everything they don't do yet is wrong, and when they get it working they say it's so right. The "right now" part is implied.
Wow. Okay I retract my snide comment. Thanks for finding that.
Hah, thanks! I had a tough time coming up with a title for this. The pulled pork was the star of the story, and this project wouldn't have existed without it, so I went with that in the title. I tried to come up with something more generic but it was tough.
Also Flutter is getting a lot of traction right now.

The development experience is incredible (probably why Facebook mentioned instant reload), lots of companies are trying it out e.g. Evernote and the community is buzzing with new plugins. Plus it doesn't wrap native components so the core of it just works cross-platform.

This is one reason I'm not a big fan of these sorts of karma systems. It's like when social media sites try to re-order the news instead of just showing it in chronological order. This post was popular, so maybe you'll like it too. Just a bit irritating. I think I prefer more traditional forums where the new posts are at the end.
AI predicts World Cup

You are simply describing the concept of a mutually symmetric contract. I think everybody here understands that concept.

Nations should also decide in a way that is representative of the desire of the population.

Perhaps the population thinks the following:

"Just like private citizens, a nation should also be allowed to enter into contracts where all the parties agree not to do things [commit cyber crime/negligence hidden behind the veil of closed source software] to each other that none of them want to have done to themselves."

I have a late-2016 Blade Stealth, and the build quality is... just ok. The keyboard (coming from a MacBook Air) took some getting used to. The battery is crap and has swelled up and warped the chassis. Heat has destroyed the adhesisve on the front rubber foot, which has fallen off. The screen has a bezel that might even be larger than the MacBook Air, which is lame.

The touchpad is really good, though.

Jeff Bezos on Twitter: “settled on two areas [of philanthropy]”
I fully agree that there is an ongoing reckoning with the limitations of deep learning, but that is the sign of a thriving community not a failing one.

Also, AGI is a misplaced milestone, even as OP explores a more interesting one: as incremental advances in AI empower non-human entities (corps and governments) with unique powers of surveillance and autonomous action, the impacts can be just as important as if it were a machine intelligence.

The uptick in articles is just a sign that it's trendy to poke holes in hype. Expecting AI to go away is like expecting the Internet (another fundamental shift that was announced with an annoying hype bubble) to go away. It's just becoming a part of life, and creating new power structures while it does.

I wish people would stop wanting to micromanage their governments. Some things, like negotiation, military planning, or crime investigation don't work when all their details are made public as they happen. Trade deals are never secret once they're completed so it's not a cover-up. You elect leaders who you believe will work in your interests and leave them to get the job done. If they do it wrong, you can unelect them or their whole party next time. This actually happened in America when people didn't like the TPP that Obama agreed to behind closed doors and they elected Trump who withdrew from it.
They were studying fathers, so their denominator was fathers, not children. There's plenty of research showing that fathers make a big difference in their children's lives and happiness. From what I can tell this study doesn't speak to that one way or the other.

Another application I want to apply a PID to is coffee roasting, but that's a whole other kettle of fish.
