I think calling it just an API later over Lucene is a bit dismissive. I’ve worked with search products built directly on Lucene vs ElasticSearch and there’s significant value add even without the API. In particular, sharding, replicating and managing indexes is trickier than you’d expect and took up a lot of dev time. ElasticSearch made that work go poof.
But they haven't become more expensive to make.

Likely this points more to something like the skyrocketing wealth disparity which means $1700 is no longer enough to spend on a veblen good.

While my Nilfisk hoover requires me to operate it manually, it is nearly 30 years old and still works perfectly. Only thing I've had to replace is the power cord which started to come apart.

You require society's permission for every sex act you participate in? Just curious how you go about that.

Do you knock on the doors of all of your neighbors so you can explain in detail your sexual plans and get their approval? Do you have them sign something or is verbal approval enough?

I'm a part of society. Do I get a say in how you pursue your sex life? In that case: I completely don't approve. I'd simply prefer if you never had sex. Because it's just my belief. And if you don't support my belief, you're intolerant.

Anyway. Sounds cumbersome for what should simply be a private act between two consenting adults.
I was born and raised in Emacs, but over the years switched to Vim (on Amiga) and used it ever since. Occasional stints came and went (UE32, Sublime...), but vim remained. It still does, but used to too. VS Code, on the other hand, is excellent for Javascript. Whenever I need to do JS, VS Code is the tool to do it. Along with Brackets for quick proto/live preview (something VS Code doesn't do as well).

Vim is still my goto (heh, heh!) 'IDE' for C. I still haven't explored, in-depth, going towards Spacemacs for C... but my vim setup is now so well-honed for everything C that I'm not sure what would be the benefit of jumping on top of anything else. Doesn't seem worth it, except for debugging, which I do per-platform anyways.

In any case, VSCode for JS is THE tool, along with Brackets for live preview when making a proto.

Bill C-16 was not wielded against her by the university -- your link demonstrates that an individual professor in the meeting mistakenly believed her conduct was against the "Canadian Human Rights Code" (not a thing that exists). That the subject of conversation that led to the meeting was Bill C-16 does not mean Bill C-16 was the authority the manager in question was using to argue her conduct violated rules. I think the principles of free inquiry are more important than Shepherd's feelings, and so correcting this misconception is important.

Subsequently, she was not punished, and after she herself made the meeting a national issue by doing a sob story tour, the university ultimately cleared her. She then sued the university for being mean to her, which is exactly what you'd expect someone whose main argument is the principles of open, uncomfortable discussion are more important than hurt feelings.

Shepherd then founded an organization on campus to promote open inquiry, and the first speaker she invited was, of course, a white supremacist who had just gotten fired for being a guest on a holocaust denial podcast. I mention this for no particular reason. If someone reading happens to infer that perhaps Shepherd's martyrdom was to a large extent inflated by Shepherd herself to raise her profile by courting controversy, I couldn't possibly be held responsible for that perception.

Today's Microsoft is less incompetent and more a victim of their success: In the end they are in the game to make money. Their users aren't, besides lip service, very interested in security. They are Windows users, after all.

Windows users (both corporate & consumer) routinely push back against changes brought on by Microsoft's security measures, and Microsoft has a hard time getting their customers to adopt new versions of Windows partly for this reason. Vast oceans of "enterprise" customers are on the 9 year old Windows 7 (and until recently, Windows XP).
Crazy question: Since Microsoft bought GitHub, would it make sense to merge VSCode and Atom at some point, keeping the best of each one?

Ask HN: What software engineering rules have you broken to get the job done?
Sure you should always write tests, be agile, don't repeat yourself, use patterns.

I often find myself working on different technologies / languages / projects where I'm not always aware of the best tooling or practices and don't have people I can ask for help.

I tend to fall back on a top down approach, build something that fails and iterate, read some documentation or existing code and modify and generally hack it out. I know I'm not engineering stuff in the best way but it usually gets the job done and I'm guessing this is pretty common among people who are jack-of-all-trades rather than a c# web services developer or a JavaScript React UI developer for example...

I still try to make stuff fairly easy to maintain, document stuff and write a few tests, but I'm definitely not doing tdd implementing state machines for every bit of logic, using DI everywhere etc etc

Maybe you have some interesting stories...

Not necessarily. The effects could be transgenerational (there's already precedent for that with other substances and executive function disorders, of which ASD is one[0]).

Even the rise in autism cases isn't necessarily evidence against this link, because the ability to diagnose people 30+ years ago was dramatically different from our ability to properly diagnose people today.

> But even then you have to be careful, because if you're spending $50,000 to prevent $50,000,000 in harm, you could still be wasting $40,000 because there is a way to do it for $10,000.

Yes, but even if you create a regulation that is $40k more expensive to implement than the cheapest option, it still results in a $49.95M in savings (regardless of who would be picking up the bill, at least when you consider us as a society that depends on each other to function) compared to having not set up that regulation at all. The government spending e.g. 1M on experts hired to check whether, say, oil pipelines are built to spec and standards, and not break unexpectedly - is much better for everyone involved overall, than the company operating the pipeline paying hundreds of millions for the cleanup of the resulting environmental damage. Same goes for pretty much any and every other industry that we actually depend on. Yes, sure, be careful if possible - but personally, I’d rather see inefficient spending on necessary regulation than no regulation at all. Because then we’d definitely be picking up the bill for it, maybe not always directly with our wallets or government budgets, but we lose either way.

I do agree with the rest of your points.

This is a problem that is GNU/Linux-specific. Windows DLLs are not PIC (position-independent code), so they do not suffer from this problem and don't need a GOT.

for details.

The method that Windows uses is much faster in the average case, but slower in the "bad" case. So GNU/Linux vs Windows have different performance tradeoffs.
> It was not really a good successor in terms of success for the Roman Empire.

How so? Constantinople was the richest, most recognized city on the European continent from the fall of Rome to the Fourth Crusade -- over half a millenium. At it's zenith it ruled almost as much territory as the Roman Empire. There's a reason the Islamic caliphs coveted it so much.

Remember that there was a lot of distrust between the Latin and Greek worlds after the Great Schism. The whole reason we're calling them Byzantines instead of Romans (or even Greek/Eastern Romans) is because Renaissance scholars wanted to emphasize Latin Romans over (the still existing) Greek Romans.

The short answer is that Windows has had a “sane” security model since Vista.
Indeed, while I critisize the quality of the implementation, much of what they implement is necessary for or assists the development of such systems. Catkin is crap, but you need a reasonable way of assmbling multiple packages (from multiple languages) into a build, and there's not many decent options (vanilla CMake has grown a lot of relevant features now, so you could probably design a similar system with a lot less extra custom code and quirks). Their IDL is naive but you do need a standard one and the landscape was a lot bleaker when the project was started. Rosdep is mostly optional: I outright ignore it when I use ROS and just sort out installing the relevant dependencies using my package manager (If you do this you find ROS works just fine on other distros). The fact that environments are generally self contained is a huge help to development: I usually put in effort to persuade other bits of software to work in a similar manner (I try to keep each project contained to a folder: dependencies outside those available and installed by my distro's package manager should not leak outside this).

Please give us non-destructive adjustment layers!

Please!

Been waiting for this for years.

On every new Gimp release I look through the new features and ... no. No adjustment layers.

I'm confused how this is not the #1 priority. It has been what I am missing for years and years. And every time I talk to someone about Gimp vs Photoshop, they ask me 'Do you still have to cope with destructive adjustment curves and filters etc? OMG, that is archaic!'.

£1bn for 659 megawatts doesn't seem to bad - though I guess it doesn't blow the whole time. £1667 per house based on their "enough power for 600,000 homes." My electricity bill would cover that in 2 or 3 years.
I made some little ramps from a piece of wood I bought at a hardware store. They were curved pieces designed for an oak table or something. One side low to the ground, one side 3cm high.

I didn't have to attach them to the floor or anything, they mostly stay in place.

I never even thought about that. I had such high hopes for Atom and the speed hit was real at first just as I thought and figured nothing would beat my Vim setup.

I went back to Atom and was underwhelmed compared to VS Code's community.

My concerns aren't about what the Roomba would do to other devices on my network, but what kind of data it's sending out and how that data could be used. That can't be mitigated by just having the thing connect to a separate network.

I'd rather not have a 3rd party have floor-plans of my house and continuously images of every inch of my home. I'd rather all of that data stay local to a device that I own and control.

I don't know if there's a sensible way to define "typical" gate fidelities, and I agree "90 to 99 percent" is misleadingly low, but picking some of the highest reported numbers (possibly achieved in specialized non-scalable set ups) is also not very representative. The engineering of gate quality is too messily intertwined with the rest of the device.

I'm really curious about this. Have you ever fiddled around, learnt or messed about with any musical instrument, and if so, how did you feel?

I recall that when I was learning my first instrument, and started learning a lot of songs, a lot of the other instruments didn't really make sense. For instance, if I was learning a guitar part from a rock song, the bass/drums/keys sort of sounded like a background mix that I couldn't identify into their individual instruments/parts.
This may be a rather intrusive question, so I don't really expect an answer, but how is the market for commercial static analysis tools?

I am asking because I was thinking about creating such tools myself in the future, preferably going commercial. But at the same time, when I look back at other developers I've known over the years, only about 10% of them used static analysis tools, and below 1% used commercial ones.
