From my experience with friends and family during this time, the "nightmare" is largely due to people feeling "This is _my_ home!", when is really not - they were highly leveraged and it belongs to their debtors. They couldn't/wouldn't grasp the idea that borrowing so much money means they lose something if they don't/can't pay up.

I sympathise that losing a home must be terrible, but many people I knew marched right into interest only loans, second mortgages, because they wanted nicer place or stuff.

At least in my circles, warning/begging people not to borrow so much fell on deaf ears during this time. The article portrays this as the lenders issue, but it goes both ways.
I had a look but the YouTube transcript is more accurate. Compare:

from that and

"Y Combinator has the people who wrote Yahoo Mail and Gmail"

Yes, the topic of the thread is US transit. Saying "this works fine in Europe" is at best a non-starter.

Governments are different. What works in France may not work in NYC for all sorts of reasons. For better or worse, the US federal government and most state and local governments are not good at running anything in an efficient manner.

You could also go outside for a walk to get some exercise. You'll meet plenty of people along the way (unless you live in the middle of no where).
It doesn't make any sense to blame technology.

Believe it or not there are plenty of other cultures that have access to the same technology but don't produce the extreme isolation that's common in the US. There's much more powerful forces at work here than online banking and ecommerce. The reality is that in the US and likely the UK traditional social networks and graces have disintegrated. It's a cultural issue which is mostly deliberate.

If you talk to anyone walking/running in city centers prepare for harsh stares and people walking ever so slightly faster to get away from the presumably crazy guy. At least that's most definitely how I would react.
Not to defend Trump, but any news about him on google seems to disproportionately be a slew of Washington Post articles. While I applaud his accomplishments and hope his space ventures are successful, why on earth we allow the wealthiest man on the planet to have a distorted soapbox of this magnitude to enact his grudge match is absolutely beyond me. I do not think that the internet or the voices being presented are being selected democratically. They are probably not even being selected statistically as the powers that be would like to defensively claim.

Only trivially small ones that we'd do a few times a week. There's still lots of physical activity that we do (eg walking around, carrying things like shopping, sex, etc).

Plus, many people have replaced the small manual activities like opening car windows with going to the gym. Anyone who has a sedentary desk job but tries to live a relatively healthy lifestyle probably does far more activity than their parents would have done if they had desk jobs.
I think you’re spot on with online dating. It’s not a stretch that it only works for attractive people, when the whole screening test is attractiveness.
This misses the point. Yes, there have to be nonlinear activations. However, almost all of the compute time is spent in matrix multiplications (or stencil operations for convolutions, which are a form of structured matrix multiplication). So when talking about runtimes, you're basically talking about matrix multiplication.
Which basically means you are going to stay away from any car manufactured in the past 10 years.
To call them a nightmare is an overreaction. Client-exposed stored procedures can be versioned either by name or by the schema they're attached to.

Additionally, you're making sweeping generalizations based on a limited perspective. Loading up the application layer is the right choice when your data will only ever be consumed by that application, and multiple versions need to coexist. When you're talking about data that cuts across a business, and where a single application version lives at a time, loading up the application layer is infeasible and unnecessary.

Ruby IS a JVM language today via JRuby. You get JIT, thread parallelism, and all the usual compacting GC goodness etc.

The GIL in CRuby means you need one process per core but that's also true of NodeJS.

Processes and threads aren't as different as you think. Linux pthreads are "just" processes which are allowed to write into the same memory. PostgreSQL remains process based to the day, although it does give them a little pain.

I have quickly browsed through both sites and they seem to put an accent on lower maintenance costs, but for that kind of money you can buy new (traditional) wheels every other month or so ...

Bonus, an article (seemingly actually published) on the matter, it's a short one, only three pages that is IMHO worth reading, only to have an idea of what can be published:

>Into the 1970s, certain key Soviet wartime agents remained unidentified; even then, only selected portions of nearly 3,000 messages had been read.

> You want an ORM? choose an ORM library. You want templates, choose a templating library. You want to send mails, choose a mailing library.

But I'd rather spend my time creating business value than researching ORMs, templating libraries and mailers. And since I've never not been able to accomplish something with the ones Rails includes by default, I've never seen the need to use something else.
IRC back in the days was literally another world. It was something special. You could bond with other online users like family members even though the only thing you knew about them was their nickname. We have more advance technologies now but we would never be able to experience anything like IRC again. Slack and Discord servers today are not even close.
> I always got the impression that larger cities or different areas were more free with this sort of thing.

Historically that's been one of the points of cities: if you don't like the rules where you live you go to a city where there are too many people for that sort of conformism. Of course some cities become large enough that they can have self-selected pockets similar to smaller conurbations. Interesting that the 70K town you lived in (not much bigger than Palo Alto) also exhibited this culture, though presumably less intensely.

Agreed; those days are when I worked on Rails, and that was a lot of the things that made 3.x different from 2.x. I wrote a blog post about it that’s one of my most popular ever: https://words.steveklabnik.com/rails-has-two-default-stacks

This sentiment also was a major theme of my forward to The Rails Way.

I’ve been thinking about this stuff a lot in the context of Rust...

1. Because of the pressure on the abdomen,the blood is directed towards the digestive organs.as the intra-abdominal pressure is increased,the abdominal viscera is toned
2. Liver,pancreas,stomach and spleen are invigorated.The nerves and muscles connected with the kidneys and intestines are revitalised.
3. Sluggishness of the liver or hepatic torpidity disappears.

It’s dangerous for women because the intense pressure and slight inversion can mess up their menstrual process during the height of it (3day span usually). Sadly no pharma studies are available on this (what company would drop money on studying that !)

Laravel comes with Laravel Elixir and it uses webpack2 since version 5.5.

Both frameworks have huge communities. The laravel community has seen a huge growth lately. I'm not sure it's an advantage anymore. In fact the popularity has grown in favour of laravel. https://www.netguru.co/hs-fs/hubfs/image1-4.png?t=1535725104...

I have a really hard time finding any kind of social connection that seems genuine and not a front for some kind of business/religious/political pursuit. It's like social connections are seen as merely a resource to exploit rather than being valuable for the actual human connection.
As long as the deformation of the loops is largely elastic, it shouldn't waste significant amounts of energy since the energy stored on every 'up' bump should be returned on 'down' bumps.

The side-to-side rigidity is my worry about it, but I imagine that could be arbitrarily increased by widening the loops.
I see what you did there ;). Anyways they can develop this technology given enough time. They do not have to be the first movers. A little R&D won’t starve their coffers.
(In response to your aside - if someone's writing about something in their free time they probably care about it so expecting a higher standard than you'd expect for someone grinding out a dime does make sense.)
People take for granted that Rails provides the closest thing to Aspect Oriented Programming that exists today (that I know of).

I don’t use rails regularly anymore, but I used it long enough to appreciate what it gives you. As long as developer efficiency and time to market is more important than than micro performance optimizations, Rails and other options that emphasize developer efficiency will continue to succeed.

Unless you’re in an established enterprise environment, that is generally going to be the story.

UUIDs are distinguishers, not identifiers.

That is, an identifier is actually a link between two things, and says: A corresponds to B.

Well-known UUIDs such as national identity numbers are often used to indicate such a relationship. The do not however prove it.
There are just too many unknowns to do estimates well in software. And getting things wrong in estimates isn't a matter of being off by a couple percentage points but being off in by orders of magnitude.

It isn't unusual for what appears to be a simple unit of work that seems like it should take a few hours to explode into days or weeks of work. And it does so in a way that is completely opaque to stakeholders.

Partly this is because of how we build software as layers of abstraction on top of other layers of abstraction. When you are at the top layer things are relatively quick and easy to estimate, but once you have to work at a lower level than normal all bets are off. And it is really hard to know beforehand if you will need to dig into the lower levels.

For example at my job I am updating an app that queries an api to filter its requests by some parameter. When the api supports the desired filter that is great. When the api doesn't, I have to dig into unfamiliar code for the api to support it. But turns out the api is just forwarding its request to another api, so I have to dig into yet another api to build the filter. And so on. The rabbit hole can get deep. And of course there isn't any documentation to help me know about this beforehand.

The article is right that the key is frequent updates and communication as soon as "blockers" like this are discovered. But it can be very difficult to communicate this to stakeholders who are uninterested in the technical details and are inflexible in scope. Trust is key, so that they believe you when you say that this task which normally takes an hour or so will now take several days.
The Job: Swap Out a Monolith for an App with Microservices-Based Architecture
I'm surprised to hear that a person can efficiently create business value without knowing the ecosystem of the language they are using. Without a knowledge of what exists outside Rails, how do you know you're not wasting time and effort? (Not to ask how you're going to get your next job.)
it’s the first way we began thinking about ROC. My understanding agrees with the GP: this was a norbert wiener- era application of binary classifiers for “is there a submarine there, or not?” tasks.

ROC was next adopted by the psychophysics community. “Did you hear that tone, or not” is a pretty easy extension of the original task...and involved many of the same researchers after the war was over.
There are a lot of CEO’s that use the Steve Jobs argument to justify their approach of thinking they know what customers want.

Chances are you are not really building a product that is reinventing a market and creating new solutions for previously non existing problems, like the iPhone. Then you fall into the hole of thinking you can imagine how people want to solve a well known problem and end up finding out later that, well, you were wrong.

I’d urge people to stop thinking they can pull off a Steve Jobs.
That doesn't contradict the article in any way. The article observes that the inadvertent bias in search results tends to reproduce real-world bias against minorities. It makes no claim that the same frequency mining algorithms cannot also skew results in other unintended ways, like matching "African American Inventors" to your query. Claiming otherwise is dishonest.
I’m not a fan of standard media, but I think that’s an unfair assumption. The least it is too general. I’m sure there are many journalists who care deeply about topics they write about.
> That doesn’t address the point - which is that as a whole, micro-interactions are reducing. Just because you have the option, doesn’t mean people are doing it as much.

It doesn't matter if people aren't doing it as much. It only matters what you're doing.

If you goto the grocery store, or the bank, or a shop or anything like that, there's always going to be tellers handling customers. Your opportunities haven't gone away or have even been diminished.
To call them a nightmare is an overreaction. Client-exposed stored procedures can be versioned either by name or by the schema they're attached to.

So now we have something like

CreateCustomer_1

CreateCustomer_2

CreateCustomer_3

And different apps are using different versions. If you have to make s change. You have to make a change to every version because you don’t know which app is dependent on which version.

What changed between the stored procedures and what code commit did they go with? Who changed it? (Usually this is solved very badly by having headers with comments that go back years). I can do a “git blame” on code, diffs, etc.

Loading up the application layer is the right choice when your data will only ever be consumed by that application,

Ideally, it should be one service per domain that is responsible for one set of data. That can be either a microservice or a module in a mono repo.

Of course reporting would be separate and would cross cut multiple domains and would usually have intimate knowledge of the tables anyway.

It’s also much easier/cheaper/faster to scale app servers than DB servers.
