Yeah, it’s not a route that used to have a lot of car carriers on it, now there are a lot of them.
The macro system is primitive in the sense that a hammer is primitive: old but still a good choice for putting a nail in something.

I don't want to get into a scheme/lisp flamewar (there are enough of those already), but I think the expressiveness of the two is sufficiently close to make other choices dominate[1].

As far as OCaml, despite what appears to be mutual love between the ML and lisp communities, the world can be divided into people who like typed languages and people who like untyped languages, so I imagine that has an effect.

Ultimately there's a lot that goes into making decisions into what language to use; I think the Mill guys are insane for implementing their assembler in the C++ templating language (as in a valid assembly file is sugared into a C++ program that outputs the binary), but it works for them, so shrug.

1: OTOH Scheme is small enough that various implementations are doing intereseting things with expressiveness (racket has several, the language modules coming to mind first; Gerbil with process migration, &c.). Common Lisp is probably just too big to make a new implementation just to experiment with a single feature (though see CLASP for a counterexample)
I was half onboard with his reasoning to remove the commit messages. But then I realized, they're only useless if they're bad commit messages. Especially if you're using PRs and using "squash + merge" for all your changes (which should really be the default IMO) the commit messages will be the PR titles and PR number and that's pretty useful. And then the commit time for the file is obviously super important.

What else might be really cool is some kind of indicator of how often the file changes, in addition to the most recent change. Like sometimes if you see a file, maybe it was changed 2 days ago but only because someone renamed a method and that made a one-line change in 50 files. But before that, when was it changed? Does it usually change multiple times a week, or was this the only time it changed in the past month? Even if it was just a rough color gradient or something it would be pretty cool to see at a glance which are the most active directories and files in your repo.
This is huge. University of California, hosting Berkeley, UCLA, UC San Diego among others, is indisputably one of the most prestigious university systems in the world and is widely regarded as the most prestigious public school. Them terminating their subscription of a major scientific journal sounds unreal. Let's see if this will start any change, but I'm very hopeful.
I agree with you, at least for a big ticket item like a car. But Turo exists, so you can test drive pretty much any non-exotic car in any major metro area, for a somewhat reasonable price. That's what we did before we bought a Model 3, as official test drives weren't available yet.
If you've read one README on Github, you know to scroll down to see it on every other project. I would argue that it's not a steep learning curve, and it's not like the hide the scrollbar... we scroll in other websites without issue when we are looking for content, especially with ads being most of the content above the fold these days.
I'm not conflating anything. I stated a fact, that the federal government cannot punish you for exercising freedom of speech, nor can it restrict your speech. Private companies aren't beholden to those restrictions on their own platforms. The person above the one I replied to was the one conflating the two, as I said.

Waiting for it and can it port to multiple platform like pi, iOS, Andorid, browser ... etc. Obviously can be a joint effort but once the basic is done, we can have a new and refreshing effort.

I always think that why PAIP is great you always have this feeling like Star Trek NG. Suddenly you have a function that works. BTW, I think the other web sites http://www.gigamonkeys.com/book/ would be good.

Not one person but if there is a basis we can grow the community, especially if one can port to Pi and iOS.
> it’s time to fresh it up a little? Get rid of gradients, dirty washed-out colors, unnecessary separators, add a little more air. Something like this:

I'm not sure I agree with this. Gradients are not bad because not everything has to have a flat UI. Also, separators can be very effective if used correctly. IMO, I think a huge part of Github's success is it's user experience compared to Google code, Codeplex and others that did not continue.

Hardware Hacking 101 – Lesson 2: Classical Hardware Hacking
That's the best argument I've ever heard for always put everything consistently after the closing quotation mark.
To the usual list of reasons, I'll add one less often discussed: it is awkward for a boss to manage someone older than themselves. A lot of social authority depends on age and experience, and having older staff makes that story more difficult.

The upside: if you are older and running your own business, then you move from being an employee to a vendor. Social graces remain intact.

If you are an employer and can look past the irrational social biases, you can find a lot of great employees no one else will hire.

> including the baseline fear of death, which we all actually have

That is a strong claim.

I have no fear of death, but a fear of what often immediately precedes death, namely decrepitude and illness. I'm in my mid 50s and so I watched the generation of my grandparents go through it, and then my parents generation. The only positive I can find in that is that if any of them feared death, the illness had made them prefer it over the constant sickness.
As a developer/maintainer of projects, the commit messages in the file browser and open issue view are both incredibly useful.

There's important metadata about the structure of a project when looking at the last commit of a group of files: do they all change together? They are more tightly coupled to one another if so. If all the files are touched by each commit, then there's an issue with the project's development process or organization of code. I also tend to run into issues frequently that were introduced by the last change to a particular part of the codebase. If I can navigate to the appropriate directory and look at the commit messages for each file, I can often be pointed directly at the commit that caused the problem and the files involved with the change.

Secondly, when developing, I'm already running the latest version or something later, so looking at closed issues contains no useful information whatsoever. I'm looking for two things: 1) What I should work on next, or 2) Is the problem I'm seeing already reported and has any work already been done on it?

Not showing open issues also has the negative UX that people will look to see if their issue already exists in whatever page they land on, and if they don't see it, create a new one. Therefore, defaulting to closed issues has the potential to raise the number of duplicate issues by some amount. Project maintainers don't like this much.
OK, I assume that I should restart or at least log out and back in when I change system settings.

Usually I'm following instructions that I found online and they tell you what to do there. I definitely don't go into Group Policy and edit things all willy-nilly.

This seems to be the case on many OSes. I was documenting my workstation setup recently and I'll share one entry here:

### Firefox opening to manjaro.org instead of new-tab

- Look for settings in Firefox to disable this. No findeee!
- Search the net to discover others talking about this. Many say just
uninstall `manjaro-browser-settings`.
- Remove `manjaro-browser-settings`.
- Failure: Firefox still behaves the same.
- Decide to uninstall Firefox and reinstall it. However, I will install
Chrome first.
- Use _Add/Remove Software_ app preferences to enable AUR repository,
then refresh databases.
- Install Chrome from AUR. It works.
- Uninstall Firefox and reinstall it.
- Success: Firefox no longer opens to manjaro.org.
- (There might have been a reboot somewhere in there - it doesn't
hurt to sprinkle them in randomly when
practicing voodoo computing!)

Also it seems like with this OS, if I don't reboot after an update or changing certain settings - things start breaking.

Maybe one day, we'll have the perfect OS! But as far as I know it doesn't exist yet. :)
It’s lying because it’s not an apples to apples comparison. You can buy a similarly equipped Honda Accord for $10k less without all of the Tesla drama.
I was actually on nightly for a bit because of this, then I realized I only needed them in a few places so I did it myself so I could go back to stable. I'm glad this is in the release. :)
> I know that's going to cause a lot of problems but what can you do

That's a good point, in the sense that even if less technical people don't care about certain issues, they're often not going to adopt the product without first soliciting advice from people who do care about those issues. So that just means potentially needing to build out a lot of stuff knowing that people won't actually use it for a long time.

Sort of like our product and the OAuth issue, which we're finally on track to (mostly) solve with a Gmail add-on but it's obviously been several years at this point.
Couldn't agree more. Handling is so much more valuable to me than fancy stitching and 0-60 times in a straight line.
You can use the #readme anchor to link directly to the readme, e.g. https://github.com/ruby/ruby#readme

In fact based on how many are landed and registered at ports. that is a different question. Pirate fishing is unregistered.

I would expect a correction factor for sea cages, that... maybe could have increased in the same period of time? just guessing. I dunno.

There are probably also entire areas closed to fishermen since 2011, We could expect a decrease on fishes previously landed from this areas.

But maybe it’s time to fresh it up a little? Get rid of gradients, dirty washed-out colors, unnecessary separators, add a little more air.

No, no, no, NO!!!11 I've had it with these "sea of floating text on an expanse of white" redesigns, seeing yet another one follow this mindless trend just disgusts me thoroughly. The lines, subtle gradients, and other affordances of the old design serve to organise and direct your eyes into the appropriate sections; without them, everything blends together into a jumbled mess and it almost looks like the stylesheet didn't load fully.

If you feel disoriented, give it a minute.

I've had to put up with such redesigns for literally years now (I don't remember when the trend started --- mid 2010s?) and I don't feel them getting any better --- and eventually get around to making a user stylesheet to make them look better than they used to.

In contrast to the article this is one of the very few redesigns of a site which I actually would like (not mine, previously discussed at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17242367): https://pbs.twimg.com/media/De17PIKXUAE27W6.jpg:large

If you know someone at Github, send them a link to this article. Maybe someone there will like my ideas and eventually get to implement them

Hopefully not. "Don't make me get out the custom stylesheet editor..."
>or better yet use our military forces to help them retake control of their country

Getting into a land war with China (who is probably the second most powerful military in the world) in a land-locked province with no realistic means of transporting and supplying troops would be very unrealistic to say the least. Even invading Hong Kong would be unrealistic, but that is 100x more practical than this suggestion.

Even without monetization, the community/discoverability benefits of YT have to be appealing. As much distaste as I have for Google, the ability to find a plurality (at least) of the content related to my area of interest in one place is quite appealing.
It's more common on less popular OSes, like FreeBSD, so I ended up sticking to stable for those platforms (e.g. production).

Let's put aside the argument of whether the role women play as familial caretakers is "genetically wired" or encouraged by cultural norms. There is undeniably a huge genetic difference between men and women that leads to all sorts of different outcomes in health, athletics, etc. That IS the perfectly reasonable and logical reasonable to discriminate on the basis of sex, which we do all the time.

Worst that could happen is that Pak loses track of one of those nukes they keep moving around and jihadis get it.

Yeah, but if you look at the tabs redesign, they're cheating a little. They are using a very busy repo(which most aren't) so the little numbers next to each tab are acting as a divider. Most repos would be really hard to navigate without some sort of additional separation between the tabs.

> We had serious constraints that would need elegant solutions.

In the era of abundant hardware resources, I like to think that this sense of craftsmanship hasn't been abandoned, but rather transmuted--transmuted into the ability to make things as readable, accessible, and maintainable as possible.

The Redis, Phantom (Thrift proxy), Kafka, and PostgreSQL codebases are regularly things I consult as role models in the design of clean, pragmatic code.

The explosion of technologies since the elegance-by-necessity-of-optimization era does not necessarily mean that the capability of engineers has declined.

Sure but it pays very handsomely to make up for the boringness. I'm already bored/soul-crushed at startups - so I'd be much happier to be bored and getting paid a lot more for it. Politics still seem ridiculous even at the startups I've been at.
I've done some theoretical work in this area. The main problem is that most hydronic (water based) heating solutions return fairly 'hot' water after heating the space. In order to get the most energy out of your CO2 refrigerant gas, you need your other heat exchange fluid to be as cool as you can manage. A designer could choose to use a different style of radiator which would allow the water to get closer to room temp, but that is not the type of system currently being manufactured. This would also not work for in-floor heating, as you would have parts of your floor very close to room temperature, not what people expect (warm floors).

These problems really aren't specific to CO2 hydronic systems, and also appear with HFC refrigerants when heating water. CO2 is actually very good for domestic hot water production, where the hot water is not returned.

The problem is really that hydronic heating is a bad fit for heat pumps in general. You'd much rather heat air, and skip the secondary fluid loop.

The edit + reload cycle is the biggest concern, though it's mostly moot these days with incremental compilation. However, I still dislike updating dependencies because it'll take several minutes to rebuild everything.

Also, building third-party tools is a pain as well (compile diesel or ripgrep sometime), which is the most annoying part for me.

Also, it's a bit annoying for CI since I like to make sure everything can build from scratch, and it can be quite the wait to see if your build succeeded.
The negative effects of a rejection can be much more than emotional... if I asked out every person at work who I liked who I thought I had a 40%+ chance with, I', pretty sure I would get fired or at the very least become widely known as a creep.

That's not true, though. You can still go to a Tesla dealer and test drive one. You can't necessarily test drive the exact model that you would buy but that's exactly the edge case that the new return policy is meant to address.
So far I bought a Acura Integra GSR, Subaru WRX, and Subaru Forester XT. It required some cajoling to get even a short test drive, even when buying a second car from the same dealer.

All 3 cars were pretty hot at the time, all 3 won car of the year or similar awards in the year I got them. I suspect if cars are in demand (and don't spend many days on the dealer lot) they minimize the test drives. If they spend months on the lot they are more generous with the test drives.
