> Romansh is believed to have originated around 15BC when the Romans conquered Rhaetia, which is now Graubünden. Romansh is the result of the combination of the Vulgar Latin spoken by soldiers and colonists, and Rhaetian, the language of the native people.

Be interesting to hear more about that.

Similar languages exist in Italy, by the way:

Hey! So the way we do it is that when you signup for Brex you link your bank account. We use that data + investor data to try to predict the ability to pay instead of looking at financial history. The caveat there is that your limit can go either up or down with time, depending on your cash burn, fundraising and other factors. That's why we're only working with startups, because they're very predictable in terms of cash spend. They raise rounds, spend money, raise another round or die.
This is not necessarily true. You would be surprised how many absolutely trivial performance issues can be found in almost every project. Sometimes it's really just about moving computation of a constant value out of a 'for' loop.
This appears to be a debit card that processes at the end of a statement period rather than immediately. Is that accurate?

Or it could mean that the cost of cache invalidation is greater than the cost of allowing stale data to be read for the remainder of the TTL, or any other number of justifications for finite TTL. The point is, it depends on your application - while it's true that shorter TTLs can mask faulty invalidation logic, I don't think it's correct to say that "TTL should be infinite" with no qualifiers whatsoever.
Aren't these things orthogonal to each other?
Rancher 1 is superb. After testing Rancher 2 for a couple of weeks I feel sad that they spent time on developing this instead of working on enhancing Rancher 1.
I can't seem to find what I can do with Rancher 2 admin panel that I cannot do with what is shipped with Kubernetes. It actually feels more limited and buggy.
After those couple of weeks of studying documenations and blog posts I gave up. I was not able to setup any app.
Rancher 1 works like a charm. I would have used it for my new projects, but since they are not likely going to develop it I might just go with stock Kubernetes.

Well, since we don't know the terms of the settlement, we don't really know.

The only only thing I agree with is doctors compensating for messing up the child's life(accidental maiming). If a sterilization goes wrong that is the risk of the patient. They are told it may not work. All who are sexually active should be held accountable to take care of the children they conceive. No birth is wrongful. All life is precious.
And the same kind of practices where done in El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Colombia, Bolivia, Perú, Chile, Argentina, Paraguay, to name a few.
No, we absolutely should not point it out as censorship, because it has not met the bar.

By your logic, taking down a post of someone being doxxed is also censorship.

One of the parts is integrating with Visa, which for authorization purposes does not have an API, it speaks ISO 8583. There is a lot of other things we built from scratch, like statementing, collections, ledger, user management, etc.
The dictionary implementation changes are the biggest speed up I can think of. They touch nearly everything in the language.

One of the interesting side-effects of this, is in 3.7+ dictionaries are now ordered by insertion, which I'm sure will help fix tons and tons of subtle non-deterministic bugs (and probably expose a few too).

Although I'm not 100% on the performance characteristics of the new unicode implementation. The unicode first string handling is a massive improvement when it comes to non-English languages. So IMO it's worth a hefty performance hit, based solely on it's own merits. In practice, it hasn't seemed to make a meaningful difference to me. So I'd wager it's good enough, unless you're hitting some sort of use case specific bind. In which case, it's probably time to leverage the C bindings anyway.
Here on HN there are many articles (some even today) ranking where people hammer on about performant code and database queries; never do this, don’t use ORMs etc without even knowing any business case they are referring to. People are calling out for people to ‘tweak, optimize and refactor’ without knowing anything about what the reader might be doing. I find that quite a solid case of people doing things they maybe should not be doing while spending a lot of time on these things.

If ‘beautiful, highly optimized’ code is not a business goal then I am wondering what money they are burning; if not their own, it could be very worrying for the company.
Yes, it's pretty well-known that Denmark is on average a much more expensive place to live than Germany (esp. east Germany).
It's technically a Charge Card, which is a type of credit card that doesn't allow you to keep a balance. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_card

How to Make Everything Ourselves: Open Modular Hardware
High rents in a bikeable city center can wipe out the savings you get from not owning a car.

My car-related expenses per month for two commuting drivers are $100 insurance, $150 in gas, and maybe $100 depreciation and maintenance. My cars are old and are not a fashion statement by any means. I would have to pay much more than $350 to get the same amount of house near city center. I would also sacrifice the ability to conveniently go long distances.
Zero informative content. Hey!
scalability and speed are two very different beasts. You can build scalable things in Go, or Python, or most any language.

At a certain scale though, the amount you'd save in infrastructure bills by using Go instead of Python is absolutely stupid. A 10x difference would not be surprising in the slightest.
I share the same fascination you have. I'm always interested in how our brains collectively developed ways to communicate through spoken languages, it makes wonder how things will change a thousand years from now. I'm sure some developing patterns could arise.

It generally seems at least as reasonable as any other form of IP protection. After all, the underlying principle is that the creators of an 'invention' deserve some kind of protection from others who would profit from their work without requiring the same level of investment – with idea that it's better for society in the long term to avoid a 'race to the bottom'. I'm not sure that's particularly different whether we're talking about creative work, physical inventions, manufacturing processes, computer software, or design languages.

It does seem that the rules governing them need to be revised. Many patented ideas are utterly trivial, or have no practical implementation, or are just unused. The terms are clearly too long as well. But the underlying idea doesn't seem terrible.

It still would have dozens of extra layers of abstraction and complexity to it. The 8-bit micro era was great because everything was simple. It wasn't necessarily easy in the sense that Linux Desktop users seem to think everyone wants things, but it was understandable.

That's what's sadly missing from modern computing. Everyone involved with making anything new seems to have a complexity-fetish. Consequently, it is now 2018 and applications are still perceptably non-responsive even when performing the same tasks we used to do with technology several orders of magnitude less performant.

True but cache invalidation is famously hard to get perfect.

A nicer way to put it might be that finite TTLs should be viewed as an opportunity to optimize, not ideal or standard.
High earners, in good health, and especially with no kids will definitely make more money - even after costs for healthcare - in the US.

The difference is in how protected they are from downside risk. You can even price it if you want: how much would it cost to buy a level of income and health protection in the US equivalent to the German safety net? Germany by the way isn't that generous by Western European standards. I'd be interested to see someone price it - my suspicion is that it would be ruinously expensive.

Of course, German nationals have the option of returning if they have to. They can earn in the US if their life circumstances make that possible while fleeing to safety if required. It's a pretty valuable option.

I can confirm this as someone who used to do 6 figures plus of business on amazon every quarter. Unless I mark that I dont want my inventory commingled (which is an option more expensive than general FBA) once my product shows up at the various warehouses it's dumped into a bin along with everyone else who sent in the same part in for FBA fulfillment.

I got all my product from HP via Synnex, all factory sealed brand new genuine parts. The number of times I got burned by people leaving shitty feedback or returning stuff because what they got when they placed there order for the part I was selling was some knockoff that was close but not exactly it was high enough that I no longer sell on there.

Amazon is actually happy to charge you more to use FBA to keep your inventory non commingled. So you can totally get all the exact things you sent them, as long as you paid for the ability to do so before sending all your stuff to the warehouse.
Yes! I agree with you mostly, except that we try to keep from having junior developers for too long. Nobody is really a junior developer, and everyone should get a turn as release manager. The main benefit of this is that people can see directly how their work style impacts the release engineering process, if they do know exactly what that process involves and actually get a turn at it. (You have to stub your own toe in order to know how bad it hurts.)

Our team is actually really small, and we like to make sure everyone knows about the hassles involved in putting together a release and doing a complete code review when it's needed. The main reason I encourage rebasing is because it helps avoid a messy graph, and a messy graph makes it immediately much harder to do a rebase across any number of merges, or any non-trivial span of time.

So in other words, I like to selfishly expect the other developers on my team to do rebases at the appropriate times, in order to preserve my own capability to easily do rebases when needed. (We also learned last week that git rebase has a --preserve-merges option that I feel foolish to not have known about sooner. We've wiped out so many merge commits unnecessarily.)

We treat the master branch as carved in stone like anyone should, but other branches should clearly flow their merges only one way (features into releases, or features into environments), and if a branch hasn't actually been included in a release tag, it's considered fair game for rebasing. It helps us to prevent our three developers' sometimes too many concurrent trains of thought from resulting in equally too many confusing merges, or an intractable number of HEADs to manage and organize into releases.

One of the places we struggle is that we're not all-the-way onboard with CI/CD processes, but we do the best we can so that whenever support for that kind of thing materializes, we will mostly not need to change our processes at all and can obtain the benefits of that kind of tooling as quickly as possible.
What's the maximum cost to your company if one of your developers has a really bad day and deploys a release that accidentally allows all customers to see each others' data?

Arguably because it gives Facebook a global commerce platform for its global forum. If Facebook is the culmination of Web 2.0 (UGC) and crypto is Web 3.0, then it makes perfect sense.

Although, I'd have to imagine that given government concern on both Facebook and cryptocurrency, extensive regulation would be a certainty.

Ha, ok - Django is not difficult to maintain, Django is a very powerful, carefully built framework with tons of features that can get you up and running with a production ready website very quickly.

Python is difficult to maintain. Full stop. Why? Anything in Python can do anything to anything else - there are no boundaries which makes it basically impossible to reason about code at scale. You need very strictly enforced code quality standards across your entire codebase and libraries in order to be able to trust anything - otherwise you don't know if some method on a class has been swapped out right underneath your feet, or if some field access is actually calling a function which is accessing a database.

Go is super easy to reason about compared to Python - as long as no one is importing unsafe or reflect (easy to check), you have very solid guarantees as to what can happen at any point.
