How the Surprise New Interactive Black Mirror Came Together
This is an algorithmic issue up to a point. Local optimization is often 'easier' than global optimization but does not necessarily find a global optimum.

On the other hand, some systems do just fine navigating a complex problem space by just solving large number of local optimization problems. See for example slime molds, which are colonies without centralized nervous system, yet manage to move and forage for sustenance successfully as long as the environment is solvable.

It's more efficient if everyone get's their own breakfast but the central bank should take care of the interest rate affecting the money that's used to buy the breakfast. Etc

You should just own up to it when you're clearly shown to be wrong. It would reflect much better than doubling down.
After Unreal Tournament 3 and Unreal Tournament 4 ( still pre-alpha) you could probably extend that 'dire' 'office environment..' to quite a few years.
The article does touch on that optimization:

In this example the grep is being performed on the local system after the log file has been pushed across the ssh session. If the file is large it would be more efficient to run the grep on the remote side simply by enclosing the pipe and grep in the double quotes.
Your code structure is not my memory chunking structure and it will interfere.

At a point you run the risk of just overloading memory with way to many names and entities by merciless chunking, not to mention create a file or function maze.

Inlining works surprisingly well because you do not have to memorize things and can just read them. Theoretically it is a tooling problem, but nobody wrote a good enough "inline" tool so instead everyone relies on incomplete and buggy textual descriptions.
Awesome comment! One thing I have problem with is that you keep saying "ripping off" or "steal". There really shouldn't be any shame in taking 2 existing good ideas and using them to make something better, something widely successful.

TF2 or PUBG could've done this but didn't, fortnite did, and nailed it, and now we all get to benefit.
I don’t see how your example makes it false.
You've had to think of the design whether you write the sentence or not.
I have a second car just for doing school runs. Never does more than 5km in a day, never goes over 40km/h. Still it requires expensive maintenance. I have long said I should replace it with something more like a golf-cart or electric bike with kids in a trailer or something. This kind of car could be that. I’m happy with a 20km range but it has to be cheap. The current car I use is worth less than the cost of its overdue timing belt change.
Yes with http://0.30000000000000004.com/
The longest functions don’t follow the same guard clause style as many of the shorter functions and I think that’s a mistake. That half the file avoids else clauses and half don’t tells me there’s an argument here that was never adequately resolved. I think we’re missing about six functions and a couple more refractors, then tone down the a couple parts of the lecture.

As it is it’s obvious that many different hands were in it (and if you look at git blame, one of them doesn’t know how to revert changes properly and needs to stay after school for extra lessons. If this file is so important it shouldn’t have the most critical lines with a “revert changes” comment as the commit message. You done goofed, son.)
And the 10% is unmaintained.

Design patterns can tap you easily in bad designs. Usually the lost thing is performance, big way, or actual simplicity.
> worked with said Britain after WWII was in economic ruin because of the WWI and WWII.

Yeah for the rest of us, WW 1/2 was absolutely the best thing that happened in history. Europe burning the wealth and power of ages in a short orgy of mutual destruction brought the rest of us out of their yoke and develop our own destinies. Some would argue the US replaced Europe as the hegemonic power but until they got muddled in the middle East, it was mostly light touch except for Vietnam. The challenge for China now is to avoid a shooting war that will burn the wealth of two-three generations of development at all cost.
That would be the route of framing themselves as a common carrier, as opposed to the current model of a content-promoting, editorializing publisher.

> The benefits package a direct employee is typically worth 40% of the salary. Hence, a contractor without benefits or employment stability gets paid more to compensate.

I... think you may be mistaken.

I've heard that big companies have a total overhead of 40% for a worker, and that might be true once you factor in the cost of middle management and office space, though again it would vary a lot by pay (I imagine office space costs a large portion of a less well paid salary. Around here, quarter-million dollar a year SWEs get the same tiny desks you'd expect of someone making 1/4 that.)

but I've got a reasonable idea of what benefits cost, and it's nowhere near 40%, at least for a SWE in my jurisdiction, where total comp is so high and the benefits are... comparatively minimal.
We all know how much the US cares about upholding international treaties lol.
The local SV dealer told me March for the Kona EV.
You could. It is called an automated theorem prover, with the cheap limited version called constraint based programming. Sadly very unavailable for most programming languages.

Sometimes writing the proof of why it should be like this is tricky, especially when complexity or performance is involved. (But then the tests are hard too.)

Linters are essentially constraint systems for code, but not for the program.
US power distribution is way more distributed than in Europe, in which everything is planned and centralized.

In the US there are transformers everywhere, you can see a house and a small transformer nearby.

In Europe they have this big monsters that cost several million dollars and require a train to move.

In Europe transformers in the city use to be underground and you won't see anything but a blackout of power.

It happened in Madrid some years ago.

Old transformers are very toxic as mineral oil with aromatic rings is burned,which is carcinogenic. New transformers use Hexafluoride SHF6 that are smaller, innocuous and easier to control.

But it cost a lot of money to update your infrastructure.

From the readme, this is based on miniKanren, so the name is a reference to that language. miniKanren itself has a Wikipedia page that also mentions the Japanese etymology of the name.

Logic languages like Prolog are usually based on relations (or "constraints"), which is likely where the name ultimately came from. As for why Japanese, I don't think there's going to be a particularly good answer to that question.

Yes, by Børge Ousland in 96/97. But the whole concept of a first is sort of vague. Ousland used a kite, but he also went almost 1000km further. But I think it's widely accepted that he was the first to cross Antarctica unsupported and solo.

It would surprise me if it wasn't a Norwegian that did it, we seem to have some sort of obsession with the South Pole. Cecilie Skog in the article you linked to is, no surprise, also Norwegian.

If you ever want to walk in the tracks of people like Roald Amundsen you should check out Expedition Amundsen, a 100km ski trip by sled over three days at Hardangervidda. Hardangervidda is absolutely stunning, but also known for taking a toll on even the most seasoned polar explorers.

that's the downside of javascript being the only game in town. to get away from it use typescript or coffeescript or some other alternative language that translates to javascript.

They're actually really not that good. Antwerp-Lille by train is more like 2 hours and 30€, one-way.

So even if we don't take into account the extra time it's still about twice as expensive as by car (about 12€ one-way on diesel) and then the train does not depart from my home, and I still have a metro to take in Lille to get to the office.

If the various transport networks were better integrated though, it could be at least as fast and as convenient as by car. A first step would be not needing between six and four different tickets for a round-trip: De Lijn for the tram in Antwerp (and/or Velo passes for the shared bikes) SNCB for the train departing from Antwerp, Transpole for the metro in Lille (and/or V'Lille for the shared bikes) and SNCF for the train departing from France.
A bike trailer is less than $200. But if the trips are shorter than 5km, why not let the kids do them by themselves? How old are they?

> seem very devoted to supporting mercantilism and cronyism

America was arguably made great via the free markets and market forces. People know this instinctively. However, these same firms now push this idea to become rent-seekers, and I don't feel like we've seen an adjustment from the left of politics to counter this, or point out economic market failures.

cf: safety regulations. Seen as hurting business. Yes, they stop individual companies making super-normal profits. But that's because they're stopping these same companies from selling the common good for profit.

Wildly off on a tangent, I wonder if we're not going to see someone running on an anti-corruption platform at some point soon, where corruption is explicitly inclusive of: lobbying, rent-seeking, gerrymandering, and so on.
That's an interesting suggestion, thanks. I will check if I can distribute it through the blog

i would say like you say it depends on the quality of the comments documenting the code. if they are correct then it shows a thorough understanding of what is written in code, apart from that a complete stranger to the code can easily find what they need. however, like you said, you will need to maintain comments more than code, which is a pain and will lead to inconsistencies in the comments, leading to crappy file with meaningless junk scattered in it, which in turn means you can never trust comments, and it's therefore kind of useless to have. :d but since that's a circular argument, and those tend to be just cynical in nature, i do prefer properly commented code above uncommented code. i'd do it less verbosely myself so i don't need to maintain so much of it though, trying to keep it more consistent over time.

> It seems to me that the speed increase in your example comes from having twice the cache and therefore half the misses.

My math assumed a share L3 cache of the same size, no "twice the cache", no "half the misses". Same number of misses, but each miss is effectively half as costly, because it's only stalling half your processing power (one of your two 1 Ghz cores) for X number of nanoseconds instead of all of it (your single 2 Ghz core).

> As for reducing the need for speculative execution: You're just replacing implicit parallelism with explicit parallelism.

Yes and no. If you're already explicitly parallel (more and more common), you're just eliminating a redundant implicit mechanism that's based on frequently wrong branch prediction heuristics. One can optimize for those, but then one can argue just how "implicit" it really is...

> Whether or not that is a win depends on the workload and the competency of your developers. :-)

Of course. But there's a lot of embarrassingly parallel work out there, and improving building blocks, that don't take a geniuses to operate. Pixel shaders, farming video frames out to render farms, compiling separate C++ TUs... these are all things already made explicitly parallel on my behalf. Really maxing out the performance of a single modern ~4 GHz core is no simple feat either.

Readability is not a valid requirement as it does not specify a valid end condition.

Likewise simplicity is not a valid requirement.
Code coverage by tests, proofs and comments is.

A valid requirement could be considered complexity, number of names and entities and a lot of other linter constraints.

Heck, aggressive deduplication is not even always good.

Self similarity is not necessarily good either (the reuse of patterns) as you could have problems trying to spot the differences and special cases as they may no longer stand out.
A language that spends its complexity budget well can save complexity from a lot of programs. E.g. if you look at https://philipnilsson.github.io/Badness10k/escaping-hell-wit... , language A could offer all 5 of those ad-hoc solutions (making it a very complex language) and language B could just offer monads (making it a relatively simple language), but both languages would be just as effective in alleviating the complexity of programs written in that language.
Unrelated: I'm a very experienced developer, and I want to learn Python, and I'm yet to find a book that's sufficiently challenging and doesn't start too slowly to hold my interest.

Though there should definitely be documentation here. What happens if `user` is null? What if the user doesn't have enough balance for the transaction to complete? What if the transaction fails?

I see this as someone trying to fool a linter that demands they have documentation. I think it's better to say "comment everything" because it puts documentation as a first-class consideration rather than an afterthought.
> I have a little developer experience.

By "developer experience" I meant the equivalent of "user experience", ie whether the codebase is enjoyable to work with.
