> if you don't like the bylaws, you go live in a different neighborhood.

What if I own land there because I bought it or inherited it? At which point do I freely enter those free neighbourhood associacions and agreements? Are they attached to the land? How exactly are they free if they are bundled? Is it like "freely" agreeing to see ads because if I don't agree I'll be cut out from the service?

In my country interaction between people that live side by side is regulated by actual law and since it's universal it's limited. Like no emission of unbearable smells or actual poison and no constant noise. It's nobody's business if his neighbour cuts grass provided he doesn't do that all the time with especially loud lawnmower.
Because modern Dylan is not an old-fashioned Lisp.

I prefer working the old-fashioned Lisp way. I start my Lisp and tell it, an expression at a time, how to be the app I want. Modern Dylan doesn't work like that. It's much more a batch-compiled affair, where you write a lot of definitions and compile them all at once to yield an artifact.

Modern Dylan does not have a Lisp-style repl that you can use to gradually build up your app interactively, teaching the runtime new tricks, and incrementally querying it to examine what you've built--as I did when working on the Dylan Newton.

For a while, Bruce Michener and I discussed what it would take to restore that kind of support to OpenDylan, but in the end I concluded it was an impractical amount of work.
“Is FT8 damaging amateur radio?”

It seems to be achieving the goal of global communications while making better use of limited spectrum to do so. I can't see that as being damaging as it really is an advancement in the state-of-the-art.
The Haredim do mainly speak Yiddish. They use Hebrew only in prayer and religious study.
The newish argument for microservices is that they enable compositionality, so wouldn't that same hypothetical apply? I.e. some 10xer is short on time and glues a bunch of microservices together and now you have the same problem but worse because there's no IDE allowing you to trace the code?
Consider that an attacker could find a number of websites hosted on EC2 us-east-1, and build statistics across not only all those websites from a single browser, but also from multiple attacked users with similar average RTTs to us-east-1. Deviations from the mean across similar users would be the flags. And with a phishing campaign, you don't need to be accurate all the time.
I don't get why you're so hung up about physical access. But at least I think I understand how we got there:

gsreenivas: Most cloud-based email services hold email in the clear

lvh: are you suggesting cloud e-mail services don't use FDE?

lolc: They may but they also hold the keys.

lvh: it's a lot easier to walk out with a box in my kitchen than it is to walk out with a drive from us-east-2a

lolc: How many people have access to drives in us-east-2a?

In that last quote I should have said "storage", because I didn't mean physical access only. So apologies if that set you on the wrong track.
I'm working on a personal organization app - basically integrating a to do list, habit tracker, and notes app into one. I think it's cool because it's useful to me and a "scratch your own itch" app.

I've never understood this. I live in an older neighborhood which was built long before HOAs existed. Actually I have never lived in a neighborhood with an HOA, and I'm over 60. I've never seen any of the evils that those folks worry about.
Disclaimer, I'll not a geneticist. And I've seen, read, or come across various studies supporting opposite viewpoints. Given that, it is non trivial to decide what is the ultimate truth and the truth we decide to pick depends on our own biases. And I don't think this question is settled and may never be settled.

My personal take, for what it's worth, there was no mass scale migration and North and South Indians are the same people. However, there was a lot on influx/migrations/invasions in North from rest of Asia and farther, which led to genetic mixing and the deviations that we see.
Yeah the receipt thing is a little surprising, as a foreigner. Literally everybody reads out the total, and asks if you want one. Most of the time I say no, but sometimes I want one.

I started to feel a bit more relaxed when I could go to the corner-shop and buy food without having to understand much Finnish, and the constant repetition helped me learn my numbers.

(Now and again a staff-member will confuse me by asking "Would you like anything else?" or "Is that all?" which throws me off. The only other questions I expect to be asked are "Would you like a bag?" or "Do you have a store-card?".)

But, come on, there isn't just the 1 type of Finn.
And even the "silent' type (which I prefer) is very warm and outgoing when given space, sincerity and calm.
In fact, I found getting into a decent conversation and a good night out as a stranger in Finland is way easier than in may other places.

On the Egyptians...only Manetho claims this; he lines up all the dynasties in sequential order to make it appear Egypt went that far back. When everybody knew at the time, and even more so today, that many dynasties ruled concurrently. So...there is that.
tl;dr:

>[An] architecture is analogous to the redux dataflow model on a react app, but applied to the fullstack.

The page has no concrete recommendations as for what tools could work to implement this pattern except GraphQL. Without a pretty strong knowledge of the tools out there, you won't know how to implement this architecture pattern well.

There's a lot of hand-waving past non-trivial problems and there's not much help on what tools/patterns/best practices will help that. For example, the architecture requires a fully async backend, yet that all state changes be atomic.

Similarly, the architecture requires `Your event system should deliver the events reliably to other microservices.`. Not a trivial thing to achieve.

Also, this architecture promises to `Scale your backend infinitely` because of using serverless services, but because everything is being funneled through a centralized state, That server/database has the potential to be a bottleneck that keeps you from scaling, and the architecture has no advice as to how to build your state to be scalable.
As an aside, can somebody explain the constraints FoundationDB puts on replica distance?

You're not wrong.

Not a European expert by any means, but I've found that when you pay with CC there usually isn't a place to leave a tip. Tipping is done with spare change left on the table.

Also, I thought tipping itself isn't necessary, as many european countries have social programs to offset low wages.
I've yet to use FT8, but it's wonderful seeing the ham community invest in newer protocols that incorporate things like forward error correction!

Many of the popular protocols, like PSK31 and AX.25 are getting long in the tooth. There's a beauty to their simplicity, but it leaves much to be desired.

Though SDR is a bit of a misnomer, extracting data out of an audio signal with DSP on commodity hardware is becoming the new way to do radio. It certainly will never replace analog voice in terms of simplicity and availability, but it's definitely breathing life into the hobby!
What would you use nowadays to actually implement the real time GraphQL subscriptions and event system in practice?
Python Notes – Day by Day
When you can just lower tax revenue by 40$ and keep 40$, a system that lowers tax revenue by 40$ and only gives you 38.80$ is less efficient. Why does someone else not you get that 1.20$ from your income?

Remember, long term the government ends up raising the taxes to cover that 40$ and your just out 1.20$ for zero gain.

On top of that even if you kept the full 40$, the dead weight loss of extra paperwork is pure economic waste.

The City of Seattle Accidentally Gave Me 32M Emails for $40
One the one hand, as someone more or less on the left, I am a little concerned with the political orthodoxy I see on the left, where there's a package of "correct" ideas of varying quality, and disagreeing with or having varying levels of enthusiasm about any of them is seen as almost worse than rejecting them all entirely.

On the other hand, nearly everyone I see these days who talks about being really passionate about free speech and preventing groupthink seems to be an actual goddamned neo-Nazi whose idea of free speech is the right to scream racial slurs at top volume into the faces of "libtard cucks" until they're driven out of public spaces and they can resurrect the Third Reich without interference.

Julia is almost good enough for me to use, but not quite. I'd prefer an s-expression syntax, but that's not a deal killer for me. I like some other languages that don't have s-expression syntaxes, though I miss the easy text manipulation that s-expressions support.

I would want a convenient way to deliver a self-contained executable. If there's a simple way to do that with Julia, I don't know about it. I look for it periodically, but haven't found it. If it's there and I've simply overlooked it, then I might actually start using it regularly.

I have a few other nits, but they're just nits. On the whole, I think Julia's pretty nice.

No matter where you are, sometimes we want to try something new, sometimes things have to change, and sometimes it doesn't work or there are growing pains.

The other side of the coin is that states and local governments aren't that much better equipped to set education standards. That's how you get things like trying to teach bronze age mythologies as science and a bunch of feel good proclamations about how "we know how best to teach our kids and that's why we should be running the show".

No system is perfect, but having some centralized standards gives you something to shoot for and gives people from other regions the ability to have some expectations about what students (should) have learned.

Regarding that last bit, it's part of why the Original Pronunciation [1] attempts at Shakespeare are so fascinating. Modern cinema has gotten us so used to hearing Shakespeare pronounced with the contemporary non-rhotic British accents, but to my ears listening to OP versions sounds much closer to contemporary American accents. (Though it is certainly not an American accent either.)

(Another favorite part of the OP works is the discovery of "lost" puns and dirty jokes due to pronunciation shifts.)

Similarly related, there's the interesting belief/possibility that a time travelling Elizabethan-era speaker of English would feel more kinship to the sometimes maligned contemporary US Southern accent than most other contemporary English accents.

To elaborate on this, there are currently only seven US states that require employers to pay tipped employees full state minimum wage before tips: Alaska, California, Nevada, Oregon, Minnesota, Montana, and Washington. For seventeen states, the state minimum cash wage payment is the same as that required under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act ($2.13/hour).

This is not to justify abstaining from tipping in the seven "full-minimum-wage" states. This is merely to provide some quantitative clarification of "being asked to share with a service worker's employer some of the burden of compensating them".

It's not surprising that an ensemble of embeddings beats single embeddings. I can't imagine it beats a single embedding fine-tuned to the task at hand, given sufficient training data. Where ensemble embeddings might shine is when there is sufficient data to determine how to weight the ensemble, but insufficient data to effectively fine-tune. I'm not sure how often this case comes up.
As somebody from the UK who moved to Finland, there's a big difference in the degrees of "Freezing".

Sure in the UK somebody might say they're freezing at -5, but in Finland I've been as cold as -25, even in the South.

(People in Finland are better dressed for the weather, and houses are all pretty new, so they're generally well-insulated. But there's probably some truth in the idea that talking to strangers becomes less appealing when you're wrapped in scarves, and winter-gear.)
I'm not sure I'd say HOAs are common in the suburbs of SF. Maybe the exurbs. HOAs are more common in what you might call sprawl, newer neighborhoods, and most suburbs of SF are old enough that they don't have HOAs. Unless you're talking, like, out in Danville or something.

I disagree. You can have fast delivery with monoliths - IME microservices provide better separation of concerns, which one the benefits could be faster delivery.

However your end user doesn’t interact with microservices, they interact with a product. “microservices” suggested as a delivery silver bullet tend to be ways managers try and mask the fact that they are trying to hire 9 women to make a baby in one month.

They are the size of countries like Italy. Read above, they too are annoyed at the freeloaders they have to support. Why should the Bay Area have to subsidize Bakersfield?? Make them city-states and Manhattan will resent the Bronx (not that they don't now).

From a just purely internal POV, ANSI CL has documented unresolved issues that could be nailed down.

Example:

When a dynamic control takes place to a targeted exit point, when are the intermediate exit points (the ones scoped within that one) torn down? The spec says they could be torn down gradually as the control transfer unwinds, or they could be torn down before the control transfer initiates.

The difference is visible to the program: in an unwind-protect cleanup form, the intermediate exit points are still visible in the former implementation, but no longer visible in the latter implementation.

I'm generally in favor of everything being as late as possible; the points should stay visible while their scope has not been traversed yet. That way the intercepting handler has the maximum choice: though it intercepted a distant control transfer, less distant control transfers are still available to it.

In any case, 24 years is enough time to pick one behavior or the other and codify it. That's the proper job of a standard.
Why would one even need such a term? The difference is the direction of the pointy end in the comparison operator...
It is an enormous waste of time to know the majority of features of most packages. Some packages that are "the standard", you will know more than others, but still far from memorizing most of the functionality.

It's just not worth the time. You should focus on the underlying languages since they transcend packages.

this is important in the united states, as the criminal justice system is often used as a blacklist. Once convicted of a DUI or drug possession, this criminal record can be used to bar employment, rescind voting rights, and legally practice housing discrimination.

American criminal justice is often a precursor for lasting biblical retribution. For example, sex offenders are often branded with scarlet letter for life even after having been incarcerated and released, presumably rehabilitated and having paid restitution to society. Criminal records are made public and posted to websites. disclosure is often required by law for prior felons.
What a shit article. Yeah, if you go to the level of economists who work at elite universities and firms, and are the type to testify before government bodies, most of them are one degree of separation from the world's biggest corporations. So what? Either what they're saying is evidence-based and defensible, or it isn't. The article seems to want to smear these people on the basis of their links, no matter how tenuous, to big tech corporations.

It's amazing watching [a subset of] the American public clamor for the destruction of incredible things that could only be created in America, and should really be sources of pride, imho.
True, though couldn't the manufacturer ship a phone with F-Droid installed?
It's not just about code. In any non-trivial system you have a bunch of components, and any minor occurrence of "bad design" that affects boundaries, protocols, configuration, deployment, persistence schema, upgrade procedures, etc, can lead to huge complications down the road if there's no one to catch this early. Mediocre engineers will only make it worse and worse, and you'll get something super complex that costs big bucks to maintain. If you have someone capable of detecting & fixing such bad patterns early enough, in extreme cases that person can be considered a 1000x engineer.
Yup, that's how it works. And why inheritance and polymorphism is so popular: it's powerful, easy to explain, and captures elegantly a lot of problems we need to model.

In contrast, non class based languages such as Haskell struggle to model problems that are trivial in OOP, such as how to reuse 90% of existing functionality but override 10% with more specialized behavior. Good luck solving that problem elegantly with type classes.
I'm creating an interactive presentation on Git for my company who has been using SVN since the dawn of time. Many might consider this a boring project but it also happens to be a wide sought out skill. Very few really dive in to becoming power users of Git which is why I think it's a cool project for me. Teaching any topic to someone else almost always resolves in a considerable skill enhancement for the teacher.

I'm not sure what metrics it would summarize though. As I understand it, self-driving systems mostly use supervised learning for feature detection. If someone isn't flagging anomalous events/detections when they happen, I'm not sure what having summarized data is buying you for the most part. (Sure if there's an actual accident. But that is hopefully a rare event.)

The Haredim speak Yiddish, but they no longer use Yiddish in the whole range of social contexts that prewar Jews did. There was a vibrant prewar Yiddish film and theatre scene, for example, but the Haredim today aren’t interested in that kind of thing, to put it mildly. As a cultural language in Israel, Yiddish is dead, and Hebrew has taken its place.
