My company bought me a 2018 MacBook Pro about two weeks ago and so far I'm enjoying the keyboard; I like the tactile feel (I typically use mechanical keyboards whenever I'm at a desk, and so the tactile feel of the MacBook Pro's keyboard was a pleasant surprise), and there's more travel than I thought there would be. I remember trying the butterfly keyboards back in 2016 and hating them, so either something must have changed or my preferences have changed.

With that being said, I've only had this MacBook Pro for two weeks, and so we'll see if it remains reliable over the next few years.
Yeah, pay 5 bucks per month for a service that you can actually code in 10 days max using 10-30 minutes of your daily routine.

Because TypeScript has proven that a type system can be helpful without being clunky and annoying.
Would need data about whether or not people are more or less likely to

1) Add text when it is missing but the attribute is there to serve as a reminder

OR

2) Change text when it is wrong

Neither one is "wrong" but one might be better than the other.

It looks like you probably weren’t around at the time the change was made (though you may have been lurking). There was a lot of popularity voting at the time, which didn’t enhance the site. Patio11 could post anything and get 300 upvotes, just because, patio11. And arguments tended to be really overloaded with votes in both directions that caused more inflammation than anything else. I’m happy with the way it is now.
You're a climate hysteric. It's not illegal to challenge that hysteria but it is made difficult by overwhelming propaganda. People don't argue with you because it is a religion now. You believe the shit data and the shit models predictions. Why? Because it's been drilled into your head. Settled science?, a consensus?--that's all unscientific religious talk.
Even wolves have standards.
I’ll add that deterrence breaks down into two different prongs: (1) deterring this particular guy from doing the same thing again and (2) deterring others from copying what this guy did. It might seem unfair to punish this guy harshly when a lesser punishment would deter him from ever trying the same thing again, but that is ignoring prong (2), the value of punishing him as a warning to others.

Is it a new problem? The dustbowl hit, and some people were completely unwilling to move, even though their way of life was unsustainable.

Change is inherently hard to deal with. I think one of the big roles of government, and perhaps culture, is to temper the peaks and valleys. Some of us are going to face hard hard choices. Some of those choices are very rapid, like an earthquake. Some of those choices are very slow, like rising sea levels.

We pretty much know that there will be earthquakes and rising sea levels. How do we influence people to minimize that impact today?

I'm a fan of big cash payouts for flood insurance in exchange for losing the land, ever increasing taxes on the sale of costal properties and converting coastline to national park.

When folks homes are inevitably destroyed, make sure they have plenty of money to move. Make it harder and harder to sell property on the risky coasts, and finally when enough homes have been destroyed (50%? 95%? doesn't really matter the higher the fraction, the more painful the change will be), take the land and turn it into parks for everyone to use.

I'm not exactly opposed to the very wealthy hanging on to a cabin or a mansion, but there needs to be a clear line that they are living on public land. People can camp in their yard.

Maybe it's a stupid idea. We do have an opportunity to unwind the massive, massive risk incurred by allowing, even encouraging, people to live in places where they will fail miserably, eventually.

Right now, the risks are low. So the stakes should be low. I have no problems with my tax dollars giving a small bonus for them to move away, and turn that land into national park. In 50 years when they are well and truly fucked - who cares? Maybe stop issuing flood insurance in 40 years. Plenty of time to figure out a plan.

But where they are living is increasingly risky. Slowly, gradually make it clear that we as a culture and government aren't going to subsidize that. It's ok if they are super-rich, and can afford to rebuild every few years. but the land will be nationalized eventually. And no one is going to subsidize rebuilding efforts in the very long run.

Question is; does it deter well? What are the crime stats on vandalism/destroying propery crimes in the US vs other countries. If it is like other crimes, the over the top punishments do not seem to deter vs the lightweight punishments in some other countries.
Types will be optional right? Otherwise I am gonna have to jump ship sadly.
There are several respected industry professionals that believe the MAX is inherently unstable (and maybe they have insider information...) but this is not considered "fact" right now. (AFAIK)

It would be interesting to know the outcome the other way round: still use the numbers and the upvotes in the back end, but hide the up one count from everyone including the poster.

My guess would be a higher quality discussion, but a less addictive ui.
It can be, but generally it is not.
Maybe I'm the minority, but seeing a post with a ton of likes will discourage me from liking it. One like has no impact among thousands. Same reason I don't upvote posts on the front page, they already made it there so why bother upvoting.

I believe this a a reference to "A Modest Proposal" by Jonathan Swift, a classic piece of political satire. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Modest_Proposal
100% agree. Right then I was just blindly guessing ;)
Ok, here goes

First, Not everything is a commodity with perfect substitutes, arguably most things aren’t. Substitutability goes beyond price.

Secondly, benefits are not necessarily equal or a linear function of cost.

Third, whether a game is zero, positive, or negative sum requires a look at the costs/benefits of the whole transaction. Saying that a buyer gains $1 more if the price goes up is obvious, it that doesn’t necessarily make it zero sum when you look at the overall transaction of a $1 price raise. .

Zero sum implies that price, costs and benefits are equal. I spend $20 on a product that cost you $20 to make, and I get $20 of benefits out of it.

Whereas I buy something for $20 , it cost you $5 to make, and I got benefits of $100 out of it, that’s positive sum, as both the buyer and seller got positive gain. If you raise the price, the deal isn’t as great, but it’s not zero sum.

I tried, but I don't really feel much sympathy for someone who buys a product with a 40% premium that's effectively a status symbol masquerading as a piece of hardware.

Oh come on, this is getting really old. A lot of people (most Mac users that I know) pay the 40% premium because they want macOS and the Mac application ecosystem. Sure, there are people that will buy it as a status symbol, but that's a crude over-generalization.

Also, a Surface with about the same specs sells at about the same price at our local retailer. The Surface Laptop 2 with a Core i5, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD is 1449 Euro, the MacBook Air 1409. There are some differences like a touch screen (Surface), Touch ID (MacBook), higher PPI (MacBook). But for all practical purposes, they are in the same class and have the same price. A similarly spec'ed Dell XPS goes for 1399 Euro without a HiDPI screen.
The problem is people make honest livings off of doing things that at this day and age require these sorts of mechanisms within social networks to allow them to thrive and work for themselves vs a company.

Many individual / independent creators 100% rely on the ability to reach others and people generally respond to the flock of many people liking / sharing a single post of some kind. I don't think it's fair to negate this as being useful.

We with generally much better paying jobs to stress / work life balance ratio within the tech industry have the privilege of not having to worry about such things being taken away and literally taking our paychecks away as well.

Value type semantics exist in plenty of GC enabled languages, like those from CCC benchmarks, hardly a Swift advantage.
I don’t know but I hate it. Not sure if I’m in the minority but it sure feels like it. In an ideal world. I feel that types are something that should be dealt with at the IDE level.
In fact, there so many things that can be done at that level, but no one has really been brave enough to do so I suppose.
That will add a bit of entropy, but might not be enough.
IIRC the NES PPU only supports one background layer. You can just change the scroll position mid-frame to give it the illusion of multiple background layers.

I posted somewhere else on this thread, but putting a main one as well.

What gets lost in the whole "get rid of like counts" argument is that doing so generally speaking just helps those who are well-known and really makes it more tough for others to get there.

Many individual creators rely on likes, shares, reposts, w/e to drive their reach. Without a replacement that provides the same ability for the individual to gain that same reach this sort of change just hurts them.

Sadly, people do care about how many others found something interesting as a reason for whether they should pay attention to it or not, so something like this can literally take money out of people's hands that make pretty honest livings at what they do (such as webcomic artists) and makes it even more tough for them to just get while working for themselves.
The deterrence is probably mostly for the group in (2) but because that group already knows what the punishment is because of the deterrence in said region, but find themselves (by whatever peer pressure, stupidity, drugs&alcohol) find themselves in this position, they may find the deterrent a guideline to add on more crimes because it does not matter. In this case, if he knew about the punishment, he probably would have fled the country the next day. Making a crime go unpunished; if he just is flagged and cannot leave the country and has to pay 100k in fines, he might be a good citizen and pay taxes in the US the rest of his life. I cannot see these harsh punishments work well (and seems they do not as people keep doing crime more than elsewhere) but it is probably needed to get elected (soft on crime!!!).
DevOps is also shrinking fyi.

What about reserved pricing? I use Azure and that’s significantly cheaper and more compariable to buying your own servers.
Agree, that's valid point, thanks.

But I will also put some comments:

1. This service have different servers to monitor your arability from around the globe.
And you will need to pay for servers (if you don't have set of servers already) - in case if you write your own. But even 1-2 servers will cost you more then 5$. (1 DO server cost 5$/m just for server)

2. You don't need to worry about data retention, it's saved up to 1 year. (some type of businesses require to save their SLA and uptime information for some period).

3. It have things that already build, like SSL cert monitoring, status pages, consolidated dashboard, weekly summary, diagrams and graphs.

But still agree with you, for some people this service is not required or they can build it by themselves, but can be helpful for others.

I thought the Ruby community generally prefers shorter code, e.g. `to_s` instead of `to_string`, and yet that type signature is very verbose: `sig {params(x: Integer).returns(String)}`
if you are asking it here, I assume you did some online research too and I believe that you already know all the solutions. For most of the people the problem is not sticking with these solutions and not being patient enough to get the result.

I’m married, above 30 with a lot of things going on in my life. And often my co-workers make joke about me going into ZEN mode when working.

Don’t look for a magic tricks. It is as simple as you hear from everyone. You just need to be patient and stick with them long enough for your brain to get use to it.

I’m careful about eating and sleeping. Having enough fun. I put my phone away while working and resting. I use Pomodoro technique to make sure I have enough short breaks and I have a goal. And I know very basic of meditation breathing technique (learned literally in 30mins). I only drink one cup of coffee on the morning and one cup of tea on the afternoon.
I believe it depends on the use case. If you notice, Stripe and Coinbase are the first few companies that use the type system. They are both dealing with financial systems and numbers in general where having types would help a lot in catching errors and bugs earlier. I've worked on financial systems before in a dynamic language, JavaScript, and from my experience there would be cases where a number would be passed from a place where it's a string (in a textfield) that then needs to be passed around as an integer at times. Type systems would help catch bugs here or in similar situations.
There is benefit to future proofing code with basic static analysis for type checking.

But it is always an incomplete solution because a) old code needs to be retrofitted, see TypeScript's way of defining type maps for vanilla JS or b) more commonly you keep the code around that's using unsafe types, effectively passing void*|Object|"choose your poison" around.
Apple and Microsoft use OSM data. So do Facebook and Garmin and countless others.

OSM already impacts the lives of millions of people. Indeed, it genuinely saves lives through its humanitarian work, and has been doing so since the Haiti earthquake.

What you appear to be saying is that it doesn’t provide motorist-centric features like “real-time traffic maps”. As someone who thinks the world would be a whole bunch better if there were fewer cars, I’m good with that.
One issue about the "bitey dog" MCAS not mentioned was the story of Air France 447 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_France_Flight_447). Thats the one that stalled into the Atlantic in 2009. The flight crew plus a pilot that was riding in the back seat spent minutes trying to debug the flight computer, and only realised too late that the copilot was pulling back on the stick the whole time, keeping the aircraft stalled.

This happened because of mode confusion: the aircraft computer realised it had compromised sensors and had switched to "alternate law", in which the computer would not override a stall. I have no doubt that Boeing knew about this incident and did not want to create a repeat.
The device was bought on a website that advertises it as an "ESD tester". Couldn't the student blame this on false advertising?
But is a small chance of dying from eating toxic bacteria worth it?

> If Bob commits to repo A and Sally commits to repo B, their commits can't result in a merge conflict.

This holds true when A and B are leaf repos, but gets tricky with repos inside a dependency graph. More concretely, if C depends on both A and B, and it turns out that C depends on A and B in such a way that A_bob and B_sally are mutually incompatible, you need some kind of mechanism for reconciling that.

Of course, exactly as you point out, mono and multi are two tradeoffs for the problems that large codebases intrinsically are.

So, what, everyone standardizes around an IDE then? You really think that's gonna unite the vim and emacs camps?

I'm personally tired of staring at variables trying to figure out what they're supposed to be, then having to dive into source to see how its used. C/C++/C# solved that problem, why are we still dealing with it?

It is embarrassing but I really only learned more than a decade later that Giana Sisters was not the original.

In Germany, and I guess in many other European countries, Giana Sisters on C64 was really the Jump and Run game (that's what we called that kind of game back then) of the 8-bit era. Super Mario was not heard of. This all changed when the Game Boy came out because it had Super Mario, but this was of course a few years after the 8-bit home computer wave peaked here.
So many of my generation learned about Super Mario years after they knew Giana Sisters.

For those that have never heard about Giana Sisters. It is essentially a Super Mario clone with Mario and Luigi replaced by two girls - Giana and Maria. The levels and the game-play are not 100% identical by very similar.
It was sold only for a very short period of time because Nintendo intervened. It was still hugely popular and most copies were just pirated.

What do you mean by types being dealt with at the IDE level?

Depending on your type system, a well-typed program can eg run faster, because the compiler / interpreter can elide certain runtime safety checks that would be necessary in untyped code.

If your type system is crazy enough, you can even track the runtime complexity of your program at the type level, including whether your program runs in finite time. See eg Dhall (https://dhall-lang.org/) whose type systems only allows programs running in finite time.
Just a single gone-off meal can kill you, so you can't try all that many times and hope to find the limit of survivability. Damp gain and rice based things are particularly hazardous in that regard - sure it's unlikely to be bad, but when it is bad, it can be very bad.
