Nope, I really don't. I don't fear strings in code because I have to run verification scripts on whatever config format we end up using or you get stuff like [1]. Its just another part of the compile process once setup, and their reasoning was sound[2], so why stress. Heck, the script isn't even complicated.

That's not how justice works.
The process violates human rights. This is not war, since no war was declared, and even in times of war responses need to be adequate in particular with respect to the number of civilian casualties. It is illegal and unambiguously immoral to conduct political assassinations of suspect combatants without judicial oversight or giving them a right to defend themselves. Add to that the fact that practically every drone strike kills innocent civilian bystanders including children[1], and there is nothing to discuss here.

So, hypothetical law question here: if the US government has deemed you worthy of being killed, are you legally obligated to die?

I asked this question once before in the context of whether you are "breaking the law" if you flee from a cop that is shooting at you, but it seems apt here as well.
Escape patent enforcement from the east coast?
Yes. (Mostly.)

REST semantics are a distraction. The best possible outcome of REST is when developers are encouraged to consider the concept of "idempotency" when they stumble upon the technical definition of the "PUT" verb. Everything else is line noise.

GraphQL has a schema with types. It makes it very straightforward and approachable for all developers to reason about what an API should deliver up-front, and also easy to reason about what is and is not a breaking change. Automatic validation of queries against the schema also saves massive amounts of time in writing validation logic.

There are still things that could be better with GraphQL. The query language is... interesting. The whole thing is still very client-server asymmetric -- look at a client query syntax versus the schema syntax you'll use on the server side for three seconds and you'll immediately and viscerally know what I mean -- and that strikes me as disappointing in this age. It's still very easy for developers to fall into mental quicksand which causes them to make many individual requests even when GraphQL would let them batch things up into one. And so on.

But overall: yes, working on a GraphQL stack is an awesome experience compared to going it alone with REST and JSON and crossed fingers.
This says a lot about our society
People tend to assume laws are right, fair, just, and moral. They're not. People also assume right equals fair equals just equals moral. Again, they're not.

There may or may not be overlap on many of these but there's never a 1:1 relationship between any of them.

This guy is not openly anti U.S. though. So it's not really comparable.

He just grown an outward facing (meaning outside of Syria, english language) news/commentary website/following on twitter/youtube from northwest of Syria. He interviews various people, including members of various militias (leaders and non-leaders), civilians, etc. I think he also interviewed some ex-shabaab (Somalia) disillusioned members. He doesn't seem radical.

OGN is mildly interesting, as in it shows what some people deal with in the region, how militia leaders present themselves to the outside world, etc. But most of the news content can be obtained from elsewhere too. It was more unique when he was in besieged Eastern Aleppo.

Bombing this guy would be like bombing The Young Turks, or whatever. It's ridiculous. He's not even in a war zone. He's in Idlib de-escalation zone.

Why would Wyoming be a surprise?

Serious question.

Out here in Wisconsin we think of Wyoming as a state with a lot of wealthy landowners. But that's based mostly on seeing huge farms, (ranches), that aren't actually farmed. (When you see a huge farm that's not being farmed in Wisconsin, you just KNOW the guy's richer than Crassus.)

It is. You have to write the rules as a Lisp script, and there's a scary "this is sort of deprecated, use the new Mac App Store stuff" paragraph in the manpage, but yes, it does allow exactly that.
The really interesting in this is not the question of authorship (whoever is paying gets the credit; whomever is getting paid can maybe get gracious acknowledgement), itś the concept/process duality. I.e.

1) Whether things are fully defined by concepts (and therefore symbolic representation) or whether there's something to objects that's fundamentally process-oriented; (this comes closer do Hubert Dreyfus' critique of AI)

2) Whether concepts themselves can be conceived as products of pure ideation, or whether there is the "concept-making process" of which concept-makers are technicians (this comes perhaps as a critique of pure conceptual art; for one, every pure mathematician knows you learn the stuff by doing and acquiring instincts), and, conversely

3) Whether meaningful things can be produced as pure process, fabrication, algorithm; or whether there's a necessary conceptual aspect to processes; whether an artisan carpenter or decades-experienced plumber have a concept built into their muscle memory and analytic instincts. (This comes close to programming: why, after so much process-development, is programming still so much a creators thing?)

In my opinion, the "maybe a terrorist" angle 100% doesn't matter. If you are a citizen then you have the right to a fair trial, due process, etc.

If it was such a slam dunk, why not arrest and prosecute under existing laws? That the federal government felt they needed to take unconstitutional steps undermines their credibility in my eyes.

> added stress of the huge bills

I really wish people would talk about these sorts of soft costs more often.

I grew up in the UK, moved to the USA in my mid 20s. While growing up, my parents divorced and my mother had to take care of me and a sibling. All 3 of us had medical conditions that needed regular care/checkups.

Not once did my mum ever spend hours on the phone chasing down bills or insurance rejections. We never paid out of pocket for prescriptions, doctor visits, A&E (USA translation: ER) visits, etc.

That stress, or lack of, is a huge factor in quality of life for a family.

Unfortunately this sort of discussion is heavily politically charged. I really don't want to start an argument thread comparing how taxes pay for socialized care, etc.

Ask HN: How to find flexible, part time work?
About two years from now, I'm planning on going back to to get a second bachelors in a totally different field (music education, for those wondering).

I'm hoping to find a part time software development job with flexible hours so that I focus as much as possible on the new degree while still bringing in some income. Preferably the kind of job where it doesn't matter if my coding is done between 9PM and 1AM as long as it gets done.

It doesn't have to be that well paid as my wife will still have her full time job, but I would like to contribute as much as possible and not have to go back to delivering pizzas or working for minimum wage on campus.

Anyways, I was wondering if anyone had done something similar or had any advice. What fields have the most part time developers, what fields have the most remote work, that sort of thing.

For reference, I will be about four years out of my first bachelors degree and probably moving to the Richmond, VA area for the second bachelors.

>>On the other hand art is somehow assumed to be a special case in our world.

I think this is most due to a romanticized vision of what an artist really is/does. When people think artist, they think of the starving-artist stereotype - locked away alone in their studio pursuing their passion and living in poverty to 'do what they love'. Or, the crazy-genius archetype (think Van Gogh). People attribute creativity to 'natural talent' or 'artistic genius', when it's really a skill that can be sharpened the same as running a business like a CEO would.

Craftsmanship and creative vision are two sides of the same coin art, just as they are in business. You can have a killer business idea, but it's worth nothing without proper execution. The same goes if you are a skilled programmer but have no vision on how to sell your skills.

The description of the POST method is very generic; one of its functions detailed in the HTTP spec is:

- Providing a block of data, such as the result of submitting a
form, to a data-handling process;

Which fits with much more than mere CRUD. And it's specifically written that it doesn't have to result in the creation of a new URI-addressable resource.

(Also, REST isn't HTTP, you can comply with the former even if you're violating the latter, and vice-versa)
How do you declare war on a non nation state? What does that look like.
Okay.. what do we do, declare war on Pakistan in order to prosecute a conflict in Waziristan? War with Afghanistan to go after violent Taliban factions in northern provinces? There is not a nation state entity to declare war against, and for example in Afghanistan you have a national population on the order of the city of Beijing, and hundreds of the police die there per year in this internal conflict. The national governments are probably complicit/cooperative for their own reasons. Also, the Geneva convention has obligations for both sides of a conflict, and - even though conduct shouldn't be dictated by the lowest common denominator - it's just not intended for this situation. I think it's possible to distinguish targeted (however flawed) drone campaigns from mass casualty bio/chem attacks like are done in Syria (with Russian support) or other cases.
I mean this in the nicest possible way; the casual way Americans talk about these things makes me wonder if they aren't suffering some form of Stockholm syndrome.

The percentage of the population who don't have anything like that kind of money in savings is huge. And that is after you already pay huge amounts for insurance.

That's how industry works. I don't know the details of Iphone business model, but they could in theory let all the components be manufactured by Tier-1s, let all the software be written by outsourcers, let the design and integration be done by someone else and only leave branding and marketing to themselves. But I would kind of expect of an artist to be a little bit more than self-brand manager.
What's the elephant in that metaphor? That the rich make the poor better off by proximity?

If so, I think you're missing the point. It's not a particularly good thing to have lots of people in "tolerable poverty" rather than total squalor. The slight reduction in suffering isn't enough.

The real elephant in the room is the long term result of massive inequality. Social unrest, violence, revolution. History is littered with these outcomes, and many of those examples end with public executions.

> originally REST was all about self-reporting and discoverability

I don't think this is accurate. Discoverability was the bonus score piece, the most fundamental parts were statelessness and caching.

A lot of grievances in early web development came from state breaking when people browsed back, reloaded pages, did other things between requests, or got hit by pretty aggressive caching.

Nothing intrinsically REST-blocking in the original zero JavaScript, form-based apps, they were just that messy and expected people to follow a linear path on a single browser window.

People where solving these problems for the first time (for the web), and they actually needed to be told to care for state.
What you are joking about is in my opinion much more serious than it looks like at first appearance. Why do you think so many rich people love to spend lots of money to have e.g. buildings named after them (for example at reputable universities)?

So your suggestion, of course refined gallantly in a way that makes it presentable in polite society, does not sound that absurd to me.

I'm only familiar with REST and not GraphQL, but this sounds interesting. Just from the name GraphQL sounds like a query language -- how can one do operations that change state (i.e., analogous to PUT/POST) rather than just query it? Thanks.
I like your point, but terrorism and war is conflating. I wouldn't want to ignore a terrorist that we know hides in Syria, and that we believe to be dangerous. That could be our moment of hesitating to kill Bin Laden. And unlike Bill Clinton, who had no drones back in 1998 and would have had to use a cruise missile strike, today it can often be done with no civilian casualties.

Sending in troops in this godforsaken places means losing more lives.

Say we have proof that a target is a known terrorist and that no civilians are around. Would you still risk the lives of 10 soldiers to catch him. Or of 2,996 and just let him go?

I do agree that the Americans probably don't have much proof of terrorism or other wrongdoing for many of the targets, and that so far they have stricken several times where civilians were around.

I tend to write publicly facing APIs so this conversation is colored a little by that. An internal API or Microservice is a different story.

I don't think it is either of. I use both. In the same API. The two are largely compatible.

All REST APIs can be modeled in RPC style APIs and that's no different with GraphQL.

I've done APIs where I have a GraphQL facade in front of REST and REST Facades infront of GraphQL by having all my REST endpoints be two lines

1. Graph QL query

2. Format result as REST

That first like maps to a graphQL query and the second one can be standardized for all your REST endpoints.

I tend to like REST in-front of GraphQL better since it allows for some performance optimizations when you know ahead of time all the data you need to grab.

And since GraphQL can be mapped to classes you could also just skip the GraphQL query compile and use the classes directly from your REST with only a few more lines of code.

Overall I like GraphQL a lot because it allows the frontend to make less round trips to the server and makes it easier to exclude data you don't want (which helps when data is large). Json:API tries to solve some of this with includes, related, and fields but it doesn't quite allow as much expressiveness as GraphQL.

Technically, yes.

And it's happened before, will happen again, and is currently happening all the time.

In the U.S., we had postal zones in certain cities. A two digit code to specify where in a large city, the letter was to be delivered. The modern zip code wasn't widely implemented until 1967. And depending on how an area grows, it's possible for a postal zone to get subdivided changing the zip code for certain areas.

Also, in 1983, Zip+4 was introduced.

So, exactly what you have described has happened.

Same thing with area codes for telephones.
