It's ironic that this is being used in a "brutalist" framework, because tagged templates seem really poorly designed and overcomplex - using a monolithic function to process an entire template, instead of compositionally building it from components that can be independent (but don't have to be.)

The example in your link could easily be implemented by a much simpler templating feature in which you just call functions to transform the parameters, e.g.:

"That ${ person } is a ${ characterize(age) }"

If you want shared state between your template expansions, you can create an object that exposes the required transformations, and it'll still be better designed than that example.

I bet the founders got money out of the business when the equity firm made its investment. It's common for that to happen. I'm sure they did ok. Even after I know the outcome I would trade places with one of them.

The ones that probably got screwed are the employees that got options thinking they would cash out in the future.

Partially related, I had the same problem with the landlord and just changed the door lock keeping also the old one in a box. So until I live here I am the only one with the key, when I transfer I change back the door lock and the landlord is again the only one with the key.

In my state the Landlord can do nothing against this exactly because it is illegal for him to enter without my permission so it is also not necessary (and a forced request is illegal) to give a copy of the key of the new door lock to the Landlord.

I agree that literate programming works well for Knuth because of the kind of programs he writes: mainly, as you say, that the program was written for a particular purpose, and when that's achieved it's "done".

I wonder, though, whether it's necessarily true that more software cannot be like that. We could in principle move a little more in the direction of declaring programs done, and when new requirements come up, writing a new program to cover them. (Knuth has no qualms about having similar code in different programs; it's almost universally believed by other programmers today that that's a terrible thing.) The old program would continue to work well for its original purpose, and those who need the newer program would use that one instead.

As with books: sometimes you need a new edition of a book, sometimes a reprint with corrections, and sometimes a new book entirely. It's ok if multiple books cover the same topics and even if they do so in slightly different ways; all that matters is that each is internally consistent — we don't demand that everything related to a certain domain and written by the same author(s) be in a single book. With programs, almost always they only grow and expand, with incremented version numbers.

This is not race trolling, dang. Why do you say it is?

It highlights the absurdity of obsession with race. Colour of skin often doesn't even correlate well with race, and even if it did, it's a ridiculous measure to use as a guide for anything.

To me it was obvious that lizardskull's comment has the same meaning.

It seems other HN readers understood this.

I'm not sure what "race trolling" is but if you think my comment suggests I am racist please delete it. That could not be further from the truth. I don't live in a part of the world that is totally obsessed with race and am sometimes bewildered by how Americans put everything down to race.
Getting on the same page in an all-remote design team
True, but in other languages, developers try to fill the gap with numerous libraries and languages on top of each others, with abstractions on top of abstractions. Proof assistants feel "stuck" at a low level, with high expertise required to use them.
I tried it a while ago, then left when I realized a terrible aspect of its’ design was being abused: The creator of a debate topic gets to moderate it, which basically includes full censorship powers of any pros or cons you don’t like.

It boggles my mind anyone designing Kialo would have thought that to be a good idea, or that they wouldn’t foresee it being abused regularly to nudge the tide of an argument in the preferred direction by the moderators.

I’ve seen it all the time: Depending on the agenda of the moderators, one side of the argument mysteriously receives an overwhelmingly large amount of “moderation” for minor technicalities or even outright nonsensical reasons.

I’ve even seen Kialo’s own confusing design you mention here used as a way to subtly suppress one side of an argument: Take any argument beyond the top level, and it’s very easy to simply claim it is a duplicate of a top level argument. For example, if I write a con of a con, moderators can remove it saying it resembled an argument they saw in a top level pro. Or if I write a pro or a pro, they can remove it by saying it’s a duplicate of its own parent!

And this technique applies any number of levels deep in the tree. When this “moderation” gets applies overwhelmingly on one side of an argument, you can shift the entire balance of a Kialo argument quite easily without revealing overt corruption on the surface of your actions.

The difference is that the returns of a venture capital fund come from the performance of a few portfolio companies. The returns of a private equity fund come from the performance of most companies. Private equity investors, like KKR here, are happy with the 7% premium return because they usually get it from each investment. The 7% return from liquidation preference would be a poor performing investment in a venture capital portfolio. Another way of looking at it is that the hit to reputation that a venture capital firm would take on this outcome isn't worth the 7% return at the expense of founders. The money is in the 10x to 100x deals.
Totally this. Sonos’ multi-room support is amazing.

I have 6 different Sonos systems in my house (living room, kitchen, bedroom, workshop, front yard, backyard). It’s wonderful to be able to play audio through any random grouping of speakers, all of which are guarenteed to be in sync as I walk between rooms. You can even plug in an analog source into any one of them (e.g. for a DJ setup at a party) and stream to the entire house — again, all in perfect sync.

They even work in areas where WiFi is weak, because they create their own independent mesh network.

I’ve yet to find anything else that works as reliably.
Looking behind, the landscape turns to black as the light can't catch up to the boat. I didn't think about that effect, but it would create a huge blindspot for a spacecraft.

> private equity investments tend to be premised on gaining control of the companies accepting investment and seek return on each investment

Put another way, losing money on a PE deal is terrible. Losing money on fewer than half of one's VC investments is positively great. When FanDuel sold, it didn't have enough upside left to justify pure venture capital. It was a distressed sale whose alternative was closing down shop. In this timeline, employees got a few more years of cash salaries. On the net, they did better with KKR et al than they would have without.
You can "mark for review" claims that aren't clear, duplicates, etc...

Mind you, we aren't a site for commenting or opining, but for capturing and visualizing the reasoning for your opinions.

Thus to "show/capture" your opinion, you vote the individual claims and theses (in the case of multi thesis debates, like this one: https://www.kialo.com/2027). Then later you can select the different perspectives (opinions) and see the reasoning of different individuals, all in the same document. Works best in team environments, as public users often only vote 5 claims.

We tried agree/disagree, but this became problematic on mobile browsers.

>> why are you using C?

> For detailed control of the machine with minimal run-time support, without resorting to assembly language.

Exactly. C is about low-level control. That's why operating systems are written in C and numeric codes in FORTRAN, and not the other way around. Speed is something C enables for the programmer to obtain via the low-level control, not something it provides by trying to read your mind.

> Basically, the original reasons for C, before all this historic revisionism.

Yes, the revisionism is really, really frustrating.

At least here in the US, it's quite easy to donate directly to a local chapter (as well as higher levels of the organization). I've done it.

The problem in America at least is many people view homelessness as “their fault”, even if they’re teenagers who have been kicked out (it’s in the US so huge % of lgbt kids are homeless because bigotry), mental health (if you have mental health issues and can’t afford treatment you’re kind of screwed. This includes PTSD- the well being of soldiers only matters if it’s a sound bite).

Coupled with a more general: it costs money to provide healthcare, etc but even if it’s way less than the total cost of not doing so, the latter costs are spread out over more or less everything else so it’s hidden.

This is much like prison and jailing: while there are some people you can’t “correct”, the vast majority you can. Every study has found that providing support and training, etc results in a far lower long term cost it “looks” expensive. When you add in many people wanting prison to be purely punishment, you just end up with people going to jail and often coming out /worse/ than when they went in.

Another property of the “not caring for the mentally ill” is that the mentally ill often subsequently end up in jail - something that costs way more than even keeping them in a mental health hospital if that’s what is needed (the staffing requirements for a mental health hospital are different from those of a prison)
> We've been conditioned to believe that trades such as plumbing, carpentry, construction, etc. are beneath high IQ people

This is a rational reaction, actually.

The problem with he "trades" is that they are often very physically demanding and take a great toll on your body over the years. They also often have a very high potential for debilitating injury.

The best companies I've worked for have been the ones who put a lot of effort into making sure they understand who they're hiring. That usually means a lot of weird questions about topics that aren't related to the technical aspects of the job.

My last round of interviews I got the tech side without any issues, but I was subjected to three rounds of the soft skills side because they were concerned my quiet affect might not fit into the team. I did what I was asked and was rewarded with working on a fantastic team that someone had put significant effort into ensuring the personalities meshed well.

Burning a bridge because you thought someone cared too much about the wrong thing is a great way to never get another callback from everyone involved in the process. Recruiters and HR people move around a lot, and have long memories.

I'd rather someone cared too much, than not enough.

So, if I wanted something to turn into a different item, where's the syntax for it?

[ > Player | Crate ] -> [ > Player | > Rock ]

What if I want something to slide over multiple tile spaces? Where's the syntax for this?

[ > Player | Crate | ] -> [ > Player | | > Crate ]

What if I want the item to progressively become more difficult to move, say for instance if I'm moving a snowball. Where's that syntax?

You'll have to explain what "more difficult" means to answer that one!

It was completely fair if you actually look at the probable course of events. In 2014 FanDuel needed money, a lot of money. They had a valuation approaching a billion but were losing ground to DraftKings and as the space was heating up they needed to grow fast. What probably added urgency to this need to grow was that both companies were starting to court various teams and leagues for partnerships, and no one wants to partner with the also-ran. FanDuel picked up the NBA and a handful of NFL teams, but DraftKings got the NHL and NFL (and the NFLPA) so DraftKings was still pulling ahead. Then in late 2015 New York and other states put the brakes on the entire industry by declaring it illegal sports betting. FanDuel has just accepted a big chunk of money and now their ability to continue operating was suddenly called into question. I have no idea what choices they made at this point, but it is pretty clear they made the wrong ones. An attempted merger with DraftKings was called off when the DoJ indicated it had anti-trust worries, and since 2016 when various state laws were changes it seems DraftKings has tacked hard into becoming an online sports book with partnerships with various casinos (including several in New Jersey, which coincidentally is challenging the constitutionality of the national gambling restrictions in the Supreme Court) while since 2016 we see a whole lot of not much from FanDuel. My guess is that when the DraftKings merged died they started spending the war chest trying to buy growth with an eye towards an exit. This is also when new management stepped in, so it is possible that the investment round was a proxy investment in a potential DraftKings buyout and when that died the company had to start looking around for a fast exit.

And please spare us all the 'powerful' squeezing out the weaker BS; the FanDuel founders would have had incredibly high-priced legal counsel for an investment round of this size and knew exactly what the upside and downside was for every possible variation of success.
