Perl and Python perhaps, but what systems ship with Ruby by default.

But anyway even if your OS ships with perl/python/ruby installed by default (and also the right version) it probably doesn't ship with whatever Postgres library they're using so you'll still have to deal with extra dependencies anyway. And talking about Windows, installing node tools on Windows with npm is on the whole much easier than doing the same with Python/Perl/Ruby, so there is that.

If you want to make an argument that it should have been written in some language that easily compiles down to a single binary you can just download and run, then perhaps people would agree with you. But I cannot see how Node is in any way worse, harder or less common than Perl/Python/Ruby.

This was actually a pretty well-used feature back around ~2010. The problem was that it was hidden away more and more every time the site was redesigned, so its discoverability (and presumably use) basically dropped to zero over time.

There are a million cool camping gadgets out there... Before I go out on a trip I take a sec to figure out what I'm doing on this trip, and what I'm gonna need. A lot of cool gadgets get left on the floor because they're totally irrelevant.

It's odd that we're coming up on 2020 and software projects checking their dependencies and overhead against their goals is still seen as a matter of fashion. KISS isn't sexy, and doesn't sell consultant hours. Those are features, not bugs, IMO.
You should define what lossy means for you because your statement is incorrect for me. Shooting Raw with an ARRI Alexa is lossless, this is not the case when you shoot R3D (Raw for RED). R3D is using JPEG2000 compression and will effectively destroy the data the sensor captured to some degree. This can have dramatic consequences when doing green screen keying and/or shooting in low light.

It doesn't mean they're this robotic when actually meeting and talking to the women. It's just a principled and organized approach to the whole thing.

Note that your type of criticism applies to many facets of life, for example medicine. They are sick human beings with their hopes and dreams, so why all the talk about blood pressure numbers and iron levels and Latin words, talk about chemical compounds, et. It's a cold heartless approach these doctors are having, as it may appear.

The thing is, many people don't have the luxury of ignoring these things. Unless they follow a principled approach where they reflect on what works and doesn't and adjust their approach, they won't get anywhere.
Elm is lovely, and I'd definitely encourage people to take a look at it from an education point of view at the least. However, I think that's a disingenous comparison.

TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, which means any JS dev already knows most of TypeScript. They're effectively just learning the type system and best practices on implementing it.

The syntax of Elm is extremely different, which would effectively require developers to learn an entirely new language. It's also a completely different proposition. It's a whole framework, which means complete buy-in on a project. I know there are some interop packages, but you would normally use it instead of React/Vue/Angular etc. This means it's only suitable for new projects.

It's a very nice framework (imo) but it's not a true comparison.

It's difficult, but ironically the real enemy of every large developing nation is its own populism/chauvinism.

When the young ruling elite encounters a crisis, a real problem, often they see that doing it in a transparent and equitable way would only serve as gunpowder for their detractors. Hence the very fast descent into totalitarianism.

And it's no wonder the real crisis of every regime is not some natural disaster, or economic collapse... no, in large nation states the game is entirely about the meta level, the power, and how to keep it, how to distribute it. Naturally this leads to the aforementioned populism/nationalism/etc.
I think the threshold of when Typescript starts being helpful is reached very quickly. Because there's always some schema in code, yes you can assign any value in JS, but then you have to remember it and account it in other code etc. There's always some schema, you just have to keep it in your head. And with TS I can offload it to the code/IDE to help me. I want to make decision about shape of an object in the moment I'm creating that abstraction or when I'm looking specifically at it deciding if it needs to be changed. I don't want to be forced to remember all those decisions all the time. If some prototype code or script is couple of screens long, sure you can easily fit it in your head and maybe you don't need additional assistance, but when it grows larger, pretty quickly it's very nice to separate process of thinking over shape of objects and process of using them.
Interesting. There are downsides to using TypeScript (build chain complexity is the major one for me, although that's getting less and less relevant as more and more tools gain native TypeScript support), but the three you mention are not relevant to me.

- I don't know what unreleased API's you're referring to, but I generally haven't seen the need to use them - if they're unreleased, I try to avoid them.

- Especially for projects with fast iterations, TypeScript has been massively useful. Changing the API around, which I do often at the start of a project, is just so much easier when you've got TypeScript to make most of the required changes, or to tell you where you have to make changes.

- Type availability might be a problem, but I also generally stick to major packages for which it's not. But yes, I have learned to contribute to DefinitelyTyped - which luckily is a relatively smooth process.

Well, that didn't work.
This is GRRM's favorite writing App.
Because TypeScript is hardly a new programming language. It's like adding JSDoc to your code and running a linter, in terms of amount of effort involved, and the learning curve is just slightly higher than that.

I check in and pick Elm up again every few months to see where it's at, I really enjoy using it and agree it's miles ahead of TS in some ways. However I've heard very little from the team about a next release and 0.19 left a few open questions. It's not something I'd pick for a project at work.

Cinema cameras need to be able to record at 4k (real 4k, 4048x2028) at upto 32bit per channel. 24 times a second.

Thats a lot of data. Now, RED at the time didn't have a way of recording to large disk arrays, (unlike the alexa) so they used their own SSD pack things.

This limited the amount of space, and shooting time.

So they needed a way of doing more than RLE compression.

This meant that they had to start chucking away some data. With standard JPEG, you throw away 3/4 of the blue and green channels (kinda, its a different colour space) and then compress the rest.

The problem? in VFX the blue and green channels are crucial for "pulling a key" (green/blue screen work, the less clear, the more manuakl cleanup needed, which costs $$$). So all that 4k resolution will be useless because in practice, the bit that the VFX team need will be < HD res.

So RED used JPEG2000 that uses wavelets to compress things. Roughly speaking, instead of storing a per pixel value, you group chunks of the image together and store the _change in frequency_, that is the difference in colour between pixels.

This doesn't reduce the resolution so much and doesn't produce square artefacts like oldschool JPEG. The problem is that its quite CPU intensive. To the point that it would take >30 seconds to decode a frame.

GPUs make it trivial to do it in real time now, but back then, its was a massive faff.

Also, RED are masters of bullshit and marketing. There is quality loss, its just they never tell you that.
Maybe not all, but Chinese people want democracy. There's one case of a village that elected their own leaders in China. See Hong Kong, Tienanmen Square Massacre, Wukan Democracy experiment (Mainland Chinese) or Taiwan (ROC/CCP say Taiwan is part of China).

But you will find that CCP insists on having the last say. Imagine electing Trump and Walmart CEO says we won't support the plan to build USA-Mexico wall. Trump says ok.

Ok, so this is 3 minute typing in hardcore mode. I'm a little confused as to why I can't see the text... but oh well. I probably should have tested what happens if you stop typing in this mode. The idea here of the app is quite interesting. I think if it didn't really delete your text then that would be nice.... but then I guess it loses the point. I'm not quite sure though I understand the point of delteeing the text. But here we are. I think I can type pretty quick so apologies hackernews people if this is a really long ramble lol. This app could be really useful though when having to write a bunch of text for work or study or just to get your thoughts out there uninterrupted. I am really struggling now to know what to write. Any other features I can think of that would be useful? well I think if we had a goal of what we want to achieve and then could somehow indicate tht we had reached that goal - perhaps that would be useful.

> The extradition bill? To do what? To extradite a Hong Kong teen that killed his pregnant girlfriend in Taiwan so he can be prosecuted there

You're being disingenuous. The extradition bill is ostensibly about that case but here's the reality: the bill would allow Hongkongers to be extradited to mainland China, where the legal system is a joke.

The prospect of being arrested in HK and shipped to authoritarian China is completely untenable.

Chinese agents have already being kidnapping and 'disappearing' Hong Kong dissidents. This would legalise and streamline the process.
Bazel can natively build images without Docker.

Bazel has many other benefits too like creating a full dependency build graph and fully reproductible builds.

Yes, for customers, I agree.

For VFX, no.

That extra resolution, and crucially colour dynamic range means that less time and money had to be spent cleaning up green screen masks.

It also means that there is more scope to do things like Day-for-night, change the colour temperature, and have full artistic freedom to change the look and feel of a movie without reshooting.
It is quite rational but it's difficult to be rational when you're hungry; it's easier to cut on food when you have calm down your stomach. Like don't go shopping when hungry, you will buy more unhealthy food.
As someone who spent a lot of time in London I hope he is correct about the track capacity released for local trains once the intercity move to the new lines.

Two stopping trains per hour between local stations is not enough and if any were cancelled or delayed it created hell.

I left partly because the commute to work sometimes took 2.5 hours each way and was ultimately draining. And that was living on the outskirts.
I have talked to relatives who, in living memory, established and ran farms on the plains. Sod huts, the whole deal. They worked way more than 40 hours a week. A 40 hour week would likely have led to loss of everything or maybe even death. Even after mechanization, a 40 hour week was not in the picture.

Factory workers used to work 6 12 hour days. Then 5 12 hour days. Then 5 10 hour days. Now, more like 5 8 hour days.

Show HN: Activium – A hotline to your personal nutritionist
Hello Hacker news,

I'd like to announce the closed lunch of Activium!

I'm Husam the founder of Activium. My obsession with diet control and planning started 7 years ago during my last two years in uni. At the time I had recently joined the university basketball team, my ultimate passion and dream ever since I was a kid. I wanted to perform the best I could. Besides training really hard daily, I knew the greatest players in the NBA followed diets optimized to help them achieve their goals. While my training paid off, my dieting not so much. I was clueless, overwhelmed, gave up so many times and just didn't know what I was doing. "If only I had access to a personal nutritionist" I kept saying to myself. It wasn't affordable to me at the time and it's just not practical today.

I built Activium to help others out there like me who realized DIY-ing your diet is just not feasible! So with Activium you get periodic counselling sessions with nutritionists who then design personalized meal plans, monitor your progress, answer your questions and actively adjust your diet to ensure you're on the optimal path to achieve your fitness and dietary goals.

After all it's only right that we humans evolve to control our diet effectively to optimize our performance.

Me and our resident nutritionist would love answer your questions about nutrition hear your thoughts about Activium.

> For example, for recycling plastic bottles, we are supposed to take the plastic lid off, and even remove the attachment of the lid and separate it from the main plastic body. Otherwise, the bottle can't actually be recycled

This will vary depending on the recycling facility, but where I live in Japan, you're supposed to separate the plastic label and the screwcap. According to a documentary about the recycling facilities here, the machines are able to automatically separate out the different kinds of plastic on PET bottles (bottle/cap/label), but the more there is that gets separated off, the more it slows down the process. So if one person forgets to separate their bottle's components, it's fine, the machine handles it, but if nobody separates, then the process takes too long and they can't keep up and have to divert unprocessed plastic to the incinerators.
> tech stacks like React are necessary and/or seen as good because the frontend is trying to solve overly complicated problems

I think a lot of these issues are symptomatic of front-end oriented toolkits trying to solve combined frontend and backend issues, causing oodles of arbitrary complexity.

It's hugely beneficial for some kinds of projects/teams, but so much of the challenge is simply due to domain impedence and using suboptimal tools for the job. Client-oriented solutions to server-client issues have some fundamental limitations.

React is already typed with props. I see no added use for TypeScript. Yet another list of packages makes maintaining very hard and inconsistent (as types are declared in variant ways). Explicit (and simple) functions as React (e.g. hooks) provides won't need strongly typed code, less readability in my opinion.

If you're building a library / sdk, than Typescript comes in place and can make life easier for devs.

> force people

Force companies. Individuals don't get to choose what the packaging is made of. And making it too inconvenient for end users is going to get pushback we don't need.

I'm wondering if there should be a mandatory deposit scheme on all packaging as there currently is on glass bottles in some place. Give people a few cents for returning a plastic bottle, and make it the manufacturer's problem to recycle or dispose of it. If your deposit-return system scans the barcode, it knows what product it is and which recycling stream to put it into ...
I build my images for private & professional projects in Gitlab CI and I use the provided free registry.

The biggest downside to my set up is that I can't say I have enterprise-level security. Getting it nailed down properly requires the use of tools like TUF/Notary[0] & signed-image aware container repositories like Harbor[1] and a deployment gate mechanism like Portieris[2]. That's a lot of complexity to tack on.

Just a note -- Docker already runs containerd underneath via a shim[3]

If you're relying on docker-specific features then by all means it makes sense to continue using docker but if you're just looking for a thing to quietly run your containers (or power your kubernetes cluster), containerd should probably be that thing. It's all of the building and none of the extra stuff that docker the company is trying to do/become.

There's a a difference between 'first to file' and 'first to invent' in patents. Most (all?) territories use the former, but the US only changed in 2013. Not sure how that applies retrospectively. More detail in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_to_file_and_first_to_inv...

I became a parent last year and all of my research indicates that 1 is way too young to send a kid away. The optimum age seems to be 3 years. It seems we have come to accept social norms that are not designed around the well-being of the child.
I am not an expert in this field and wonder if the _cause_ of the testosterone drop necessarily has to affect the outcome of bonding/nurturing behaviour? For example, maybe all or part of the testosterone drop _is_ due to the degraded sleep quality. If that drop then still results in them being more motivated to bond with their child and less motivated to find other partners, the effect seems to be the same - the man is then still better primed for parenthood.
It didn't fail that hard. It was pretty widely used, but the JRE was a large and not very fast runtime back then. It got better over time but the browser makers got pretty determined to kill off any competing platforms to HTML under the guise of security.
We tried kata the user experience is not as good as lxd.

Moreover with lxd just use the same deployment platform, scripts as used for bare-metal and VM. No need to fiddle with mix of shell scripts and DSL for container orchestration and how to integrate with your own code. No need for zombie process like in docker.
