I don't think it has much to do with type inference. It's more that type systems became more complicated, and so did type names. And with a long composite type name, the name of the variable gets pushed too far out and obscured. It worked great in Algol, and still works pretty well in C (although that is partly because it splits the declarator to keep array and function syntax to the right of the variable name), but in C++ with templates it's already hard to read.

There are also a variety of issues with parsing it that way, most of which go away entirely if the name is first.
I guess I do, in Denmark they came in the same book called the yellow pages (de gule sider). I guess that was because we’re a tiny nation, but now that you mention it the “people” pages were indeed white.
True. There's probably a business opprotunity in there somewhere for a payment processor with a policy of never disputing chargebacks, since that's the main excuse used to kill crowdfunding/patronage platforms that don't play along with moral guardians.
Your last paragraph is spot on. I definitely had a "I'm too poor" mentality for most of my 20s (I did some similar things to the author of the piece, but without the kids), and that mindset was definitely a limiting factor in my life. I was always too poor to do anything I wanted to do. I even considered myself too poor to date anyone, so I just didn't. Now that I'm in my 30s looking back, and even though I'm more financially secure now it seems like I had a lot more freedom then and could have done a lot more then, possibly more than I can afford to do now (because now what I'm poor in is time and energy, not so much cash).

I still managed to do a few interesting things in my 20s, but not as much as I would have if I could reverse time but with the knowledge I have now.
For Lyft having a taxi anywhere I want one with low wait times at low cost is going to secure their success. Not new features in their app, not even latency to the data center.

There's no reason they need to be spending such crazy amounts on servers - ostensibly to allow faster iteration. A new version of their app just isn't going to move the needle. Signing up new drivers will though.

I fail to see how the benefits AWS provides are so important they need to spend such crazy amounts.
This is mostly about HAMMER2 being far more likely to get ported/merged to openbsd than zfs.
This comment is breaking my brain.

If 100% of iOS antivirus apps are fraud, that implies they do nothing (probably because of permissions) and/or there are no viruses on iOS to even find, no? If that's the case, that'd further imply those antivirus apps aren't, themselves, malware. Then... what's the point? Why would they exist as apps (and why would people download them) if they do nothing and gain nothing for the author or the user?

Edit: to add on about Kafka, it guarantees a serializable ordering on the incoming messages and is driven internally by a vector clock. This may not be suitable for applications, but the throughput is high and allows multiple subscribers to get a consistent ordering.
As an Ivy grad, I think that that is an excessively cynical and inaccurate view. The educational value is real, regardless of how the universities handle their financials.
I'd rather be cautious with such assessments like "absolutely a natural night owl" – at least until we're able to tell that from the genome directly, haha.

I'm a night owl myself, but around 10 years ago I've accidentally switched to the 10pm-5am sleep pattern and those were happiest and most productive months of my life. I was waking up without alarm and was jumping out of bed, quite literally. I dream to return to that pattern again and have been trying to do so since then (no luck so far).

I actually have an OpenBSD instance with 512mb of ram that costs $2.50/mo on Vultr and their support has been amazing. A while after upgrading OpenBSD to a new version, I noticed IPV6 wasn't working anymore. I didn't initially think it was the upgrade that did it, because I rarely ever thing about IPV6, so I opened a support ticket. I got a response back by someone obviously very familiar with OpenBSD with step-by-step instructions on what I needed to do after the upgrade to get back IPV6. It was pretty amazing for $2.50/mo!
IMO not having Java should be considered a positive. Java is wonderful in theory, but in practice it's likely been one of the most common recurring headaches in my IT management career.

For a platform where one of the key marketing points has always been "write once, run anywhere" it sure is apparently not only easy but seemingly encouraged to write software that only runs on a specific version of the JVM, often with key security features disabled.

Either Java itself sucks or Java encourages its developers to suck. I'm not sure which.

Obviously not all Java applications nor all Java developers suck, but there is a larger than normal amount of suckage in the Java universe.

Just imagine all the stress and suffering caused by the misdiagnosis and unnecessary visits to the doctor and unnecessary tests and imagine that on a grand scale (to say nothing of wasted resources).

Not true. Division isn't associative and you can do e.g. (/ 12 6 3)

A technical note: Whatever is above the temperature of boiling liquid nitrogen 77 K = −195.79 °C = −320 °Fis considered not too cold in a lab, because liquid nitrogen is very cheap. (Something like a price of the same volume of coca-cola.)

There is also an interesting idea hidden here. If it is possible to measure something interesting in graphene at room temperature, perhaps you can measure the same phenomena in graphite at a temperature that is above liquid Nitrogen temperature.

US News puts them at #30, but that's really the 13th group---there's a lot of ties.

I think I disagree with that list though---there's many schools higher in the list that I've never read a paper from. They can't be good.

This "study" simply tells me really nothing. It does sort out the types of users who want to connect and click on those posts in questions.

Personally speaking, I would look elsewhere for a more in-depth and bias-free analysis for any business driven venture. Too much presumptions made in this article. Just that the way it defines “meaningful interactions”, "divisive" topics, “angry” reaction, etc. is rather unprofessional.

A better way is to define and characterize the users of these news postings and get statistical averages on the response time and intensity of responses as well as commonly used words/phrase in reply.
I think people took your 2 to 10 thing far to literal.

There are consessions with all that but you can work around them as others do already.

Regarding societal pressure, there is. But you need to realise these people are productive, not always successful in hindsight.

> "Either Java itself sucks or Java encourages its developers to suck. I'm not sure which."

Neither. Java makes it easy for developers that suck to contribute. (The subtle difference here being that it won't make a good developer lose his competency.)

Incidentally this is why companies love java so much. Hiring a java developer straight out of college is much easier than hiring a C++ developer straight out of college. Arguably in the last few years Java's niche has been encroached on by other accessible languages with mild learning curves (golang, javascript/node, etc) but for years Java was the obvious choice if you wanted to hire cheap developers that could at the bare minimum fullfil the design requirements.
As someone doing both dev and ops I automate and refactor away any issues (some small yet important issues might require large rewrites in the software). But I also like to carry out manual tasks for users as it gives them a sense of service and I get to talk to users.

This isn't sustainable. Ask older folks around you who used to use a lot of stimulants when they were younger, and you'll find the answer. Stimulant use is a lot harder on the body and the mind the older you get. Caffeine, as a light stimulant, is better, but can also be problematic.

I've encountered these work environments before and I wouldn't want to again. In my case it was a bunch of young people pushing themselves to the brink hoping to win the startup lottery as early as possible. They didn't of course. I hope your work environment isn't like this.
The other secret must be not having kids. Or maybe I need to extend my evening routine to dropping them off at school/childcare the night before, which would both reduce the time needed for my morning routine and guarantee quality sleep!

Currently? Bootstrapping a product in computer vision space, by spending half the time helping 2 other companies with their deep learning efforts, and the other half on my own R&D. I've been in the fortunate situation that there's far more consulting work than I'm willing to take (and man do I charge a lot), so that part is booked months in advance. Product efforts are progressing nicely, too. I might be looking into hiring someone to help on both of those things in the foreseeable future.

I don't know if it's just the network effects or my preconceived notions, but the whole "business" thing turned out to be not as hard as I thought. I work out of my man cave and have a rack full of quad-GPU machines in the garage (because fuck cloud GPU pricing). I spend about a day and a half per week in my customers' offices (and I charge my hourly rate for commute too). Everything else, I don't even have to leave the house. If I don't feel like working on any given day, I just don't. Today is one of those days.

I now think this is how high-skill CS is supposed to work. Offices are bullshit. You can get easily twice as much done with a little self-discipline if you work remotely, and work will be of higher quality, because you _can actually focus_.
I've no idea how many people use them, but I do and it's easy to get used to.

I think it was only two or three days ago I was on HN reading a comment from a single working (Army) parent who takes a few credits every semester. It didn’t sound pleasant, and he specifically stated this was a temporary state of affairs because he is setting himself up for after he leaves the Army so he can best be there for his kid when it matters, but it was at the very least, a productive routine and lifestyle that matched his circumstances and life choices.

Routine, Discipline and a regular amount of sleep, regular in this case meaning routine amount, not necessarily a lot or a little. That is my takeaway from every single not-worthless article or piece of commentary that has helped me get my own shit together. The actual details generally don’t matter, the actual lifestyle doesn’t matter, and the actual job or field of study doesn’t matter. So long as you have those three elements, you, the general you and not necessarily you specifically, can figure out the rest. The amount of caffeine consumption or lack thereof, whether you shower in the morning or at night or both, how you commute, whether you work from home or not, what you eat in the morning, et cetera. I guess in the case of two or more working adults in the same house, cooperation/division of labor is another key element in that mixture, but I am not speaking from experience, just observation, on that one.

Not to discredit the difficulties of parenting, it is the hardest job in the world to do well, but somehow we’ve collectively increased our population to 7 billion of us and a not insignificant fraction of us generally turn out alright, and the how you go about it matters a little bit less than the why. The parents that are enthusiastic about and enjoy being parents will always be better than the ones that had it foisted upon them somehow, and in that sense, it is just like another job: you learn how to do it, you learn how to do it well, you make it an integral part of your day, and that means building it into your routine so that you always have time to be a parent, that way your kids don’t turn out like those of us where our parents weren’t present and we were background details, distractions, when they were.
That's your counter? One instance of abuse?

I'll take that if it comes with all the breakthroughs the American healthcare system has developed.
My friendly advice for the author of this project:

Release the code on Github. Just release anything, even if it's not finished. Make the code work first, then build a slick website where you brag about its features and benchmarks.

Creating the website first, before there's even anything to try out, is disingeous at best, and at worst it's leaching productivity away from time better spent programming. I remember how, as a junior developer, it was a lot more fun talking about how great my project was going to be, than doing the actual, hard work. But it does take hard work to bring something to completion.

You're doing the exact same thing with your chat app, Volt. You spent years talking about how great it was going to be. You promised features and release dates, then changed the release dates once you weren't able to deliver. Your current alpha release barely works and barely has any of the features. You clearly need some helping hands to implement all the features you've been promising over the years.

I'm sure there are lots of developers here who would love to hack on a new programming language or a chat app.
I got $10 in free credit at sign up too. Very impressed with their service so far and OpenBSD is equally well supported as Linux. In case someone is looking for the very cheap plans, make sure to select Atlanta as the data center because some other locations in the US don’t have the cheapest plans.

Ask HN: Folks building on deno, what's your experience so far?
For context: https://github.com/denoland/deno
Whenever i see anything about android anti-virus apps I've always been confused about what it is they actually look for. Every app on an android phone has fine grained permission management and for anything you give specific access to system functions(like drawing over other apps) to, you have to go to a specific extra permission enabling screen full of warnings to enable it.

I understand there's apps with malicious things buried in them, but how can an antivirus determine between something like that and something benign?

As far as i can tell, traditional viruses, the way the work on windows and dos systems, just wouldn't work on android.

I'm not sure if i'm just missing something, but this article kind of confirms my suspicions. It just seems like you'd have to be really fucking around, or just completely and utterly oblivious to some very obvious red flags, to install a straight up virus on android.
