The breaking changes from V3 to V4 was a real problem, imo. A lot of it was the same functionality just reorganized.

A better approach would have been to leave the old code running with stubs to the new method signatures. As it is, if you want to migrate code from V3 to V4, it takes a lot of mostly annoying and tedious work that could have been done once by a little bit of code that calls the new code from the old method signature. Have a d3V3toV4.js translator library in there if you want, but don't make people update years of code to get on the latest versions of the API.

Idiots. And this is why the shared identity is a terrible idea for dating sites. You want dating profiles to be throwaway, and you want it to be hard for your friends to find your dating persona for this reason!

But of course Facebook doesn't understand the need to keep secrets from (some of) your friends.

Even under that there's the open question of was it a free approval or was it an 'at least black out the section that says what satellite and settings this was taken with.'

Isn't QUIC/HTTP3 the opposite? It's moving up the layers of abstraction, by moving something that would previously have been managed at layer 4 up to a higher layer.

I don't know if I would consider this easy for a beginner, but it does lead to an interesting result in the 'contrapositive' case:

Any recursive solution can be turned into an iterative solution if you store the arguments of the recursive function in a data structure on the heap, and turn the recursive call itself into an access/modification of the data structure. As a specific example, any tail-recursive function can be turned into a for loop that modifies a stack. Recursive functions that are not tail-recursive (such as fibonacci) will require more complex data structures, depending on their internal recursive structure. (fibonacci can use an indexable list, for instance).

This is the heart of memoization and dynamic programming.
Just put all your friends on the list, that should allow you to see everyone who put you on their list.

No it doesn't. The SSD lookup is measured in microseconds. The memory lookup for the mapping to blkid is measured in nanoseconds.

Unless they're putting some expensive, power-hungry CAM in these devices, they're doing exactly what I described above.

The only real advantages could be variably-sized values, and offloading CPU cycles. But a map lookup isn't exactly expensive, especially for an I/O heavy system. And variably-sized blocks aren't particularly relevant, since DBs are pretty good at packing in data.

There's not much there to justify an unusual, expensive device that's far more complicated than the alternative.
Once you understand the type declaration syntax via the “declarations mirror use” guideline, there is nothing weird in C syntax. Any scary “pointer to function returning pointer to array” declarations are easily disentangled by applying the operators in the correct order around the declared name. People who know that rule tend to put the asterisk next to the name in pointer declarations.

The semantics of the language are quite simple if we discard the weird implicit integer promotion and conversion rules. Every operation yields a new value of a certain type, and some expressions are considered lvalues by virtue of designating a modifiable location in memory.
Who are some people who will use this and what does one get for taking the risk to associate with them? It seems superficial, but for a social network, it's the only question that matters.
Pretty neat.

Yes, if indexes sell off any many times their average daily volume that means components will as well. That's fine.

Savvy players will scoop up deals, most people will do nothing and life will move on.

Honestly, this is more like the revenge of the mainframes.

You would think. Those of us who have been wasting time on the internet for long enough remember the Secret Crush Meme from LiveJournal [1], which worked just like this. It was great up until someone realised they could just say they had a crush on everyone they knew to get a list of who had crushes on them, without any genuine reciprocity of the crush.

If you could figure out a way to make it somehow costly to falsely say you have a crush on someone, this might work, but until then, this is game-theoretically wince-inducing.

The content is way more developed, and instead of loading a pile of floppies

Ahhhh ok you got me there. Floppies were terrible, and playing games on a low end DOS machine was terribly slow. I have played modern games that were about as frustrating though, but only if they're completely broken.

I was referring to game consoles though. Load times on Sega CD on 3DO were terrible for the time and turned off a lot of consumers back then (though not the only reason those platforms failed, they were just the slowest of the bunch). But the load times in modern games is typically far worse than those systems ever saw.

I switch between modern and retro era systems frequently, and I find modern load times embarrassing given what people were up in arms about back then.

Jonathon Blow tends to agree with me, FWIW. Check out some of his talks on the lack of optimization in modern software if you have the chance. Modern software should be a lot faster than it is given the hardware capabilities, according to him too.
Not exactly. Although we do supply healthcare organizations and government entities domestically and abroad, we are not the suppliers for Finland. The Finnish baby box program is conducted by Kela, a Finnish government agency in charge of settling benefits under national social security programs. Unfortunately, they took some heat earlier this year for their labor practices to make some of the products they include in their baby boxes (https://yle.fi/uutiset/osasto/news/finnwatch_majority_of_fin...).

From what I understand, the company Finnish Baby Box (based in Finland) uses the same products from the same suppliers and makes those same boxes available to consumer.

Finnbin, the company I founded, manufactures our own boxes and sources the materials for our box from US-based companies who utililze managed forestries and are certified to Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) standards, created to promote responsible forest management.

And, although the original Finnish government program was the inspiration for our product, we've tailored our product offering to the American consumer and with American brands. For example, the Finnish baby box contains a regular sheet rather than a fitted sheet. This would not adhere to the American Academy of Pediatrics safe sleep recommendations. Therefore, we include a fitted sheet custom to the waterproof mattress we provide.

Additionally, much of the clothing in the Finnish government boxes program is designed for a much colder climate than we're used to here in the US. Rather than including similar products that many people wouldn't likely use, we've replaced them with more universal clothing and products.
Yep. So, you don't just own the top 500 stocks by market cap. You own a set of stocks that resemble that idea, but are in fact still choices made by S&P. Also notice that stocks don't immediately get dropped when they fall below that criteria; there's a buffer for how bad they have to get to be dropped. Additionally, the rules governing these choices are free to change at any time. For example, whether stocks with split voting shares should qualify is still a discussion.

Let's also not forget Hacker News's favorite law: Goodhart's Law. The S&P has performed wonderfully well when it was observed as an index. But now that it's a target, the world will change around it.
The investigation points to a vitamin E acetate (tocopheryl acetate) additive in the vape liquids as the culprit:

Laboratory test results showed very high levels of vitamin E acetate in nearly all cannabis-containing samples analyzed by the Wadsworth Center as part of this investigation. At least one vitamin E acetate containing vape product has been linked to each patient who submitted a product for testing. Vitamin E acetate is not an approved additive for New York State Medical Marijuana Program-authorized vape products and was not seen in the nicotine-based products that were tested.

As a result, vitamin E acetate is now a key focus of the Department's investigation of potential causes of vaping-associated pulmonary illnesses. Vitamin E acetate is a commonly available nutritional supplement that is not known to cause harm when ingested as a vitamin supplement or applied to the skin. However, the Department continues to investigate its health effects when inhaled because its oil-like properties could be associated with the observed symptoms.

If you can write code to do a job, you probably should. ML makes sense for places where you can't write the code. We know many applications where this is the case: people tried for decades to write good natural language translation and image recognition, but ML does much better.

> The interface is for random access.

I'm not sure where you are getting this idea. How keys are organized would be up to the device, and devices could support multiple schemes. Clustering keys in a sorted order and fast in-order iteration seems like an essential requirement.

Just scanning over the specification [1], I see an iterator interface for key groups (6.4) and a setting for ordering (5.4.3)

Edit: just to clarify, I agree that this would in no way obsolete databases. But software DBs could utilize key/value disks internally.

Developing good smartphone userland and OS is very software engineering resource intensive. You cannot do it on a shoestring budget. Even Nokia with its Maemo was only 80% there - and they were able to throw hundreds of software engineers on it. I was also part of one early smartphone development team where you had 150 people at its peak and they still could deliver the product. Not to mention OpenMoko.

Even when Librem delivers, it will be subpar UX to what people are used to. It is a trade off, but I feel only very hardcore enthusiastic are willing to take it.

> And on the surface, there's almost no sunlight and the windspeed is very low[...]

Ignoring other issues with Venus (heat, pressure, acid...) "wind" turbines on the surface seem completely viable. The wind speed is low (reaching ~2.8 m/s on the surface) but the pressure is 90 atmospheres[1], or 67 kg/m^3, compared to ~1.225 kg/m^3 on Earth.

If you plug that into a wind power calculator[2] you can see that with a conservative 1.4 m/s surface wind you need a 1 meter radius fan blade to get the same power as a 7-8 meter radius blade on Earth.

So wind power on the surface seems completely viable, aside from the small engineering issue that your turbine would melt into a pool of metal in seconds with current technology.

Thinking about data science/ML in the scope of the software development lifecycle isn't the right way to think about the industry. For non-AI products, data sci is a complement to the traditional processes, providing more-informed decisions.

Even for AI-products, the development is still iterative, e.g. improving the product after real world testing/feedback.
> My company grossed $45,600 MRR this August. I love Stripe and swear by it, but I don't really understand why someone in my position would want this offer. The highest amount represents only about 17 days of revenue.

You offer a service I guess (the fact that you say MRR pretty much confirm this already)? This isn't for your kind of business, this is for the one that directly spends theses revenues once they are gained and could profit from economy of scale. Essentially this is for a shop that could save a bit by making bigger order and keeping an inventory.

Let say that you make in average 50k, but you spend 90% of that in operating cost... now making the same 25k would takes 5 months, not so good. Now let say that 50% of that cost is in buying the item you sell and that by buying a full month of that item instead of a few day at a time would give you a discount of 20%, that would means that after 2 months you would have paid back that fee and after 6.5 months your sales would all go back to you. A loan could do the same, but even in a bad month, you will still have the same amount to pay back... which can hurt quite a bit a company.

If we consider it relative to HTTP1 just to heighten the contrast, it takes the layers of: TCP connection management and negotiation, plain text framing protocols, protocols too limited to deal with the greatly-increased use of or need for multiple streams at once, SSL layering its own negotiation in, rather hacky stories around websockets/SSE (which are usually used as text protocols framed inside of text protocols framed inside of text protocols... not really the best setup), and probably a couple of other things. All of these things were designed for a different era at the very least, and often designed independent of each other. HTTP3 slices through the whole thing and creates nearly an entire protocol stack for its needs, using only the minimum it needs from IP to work over the internet at all.

My software engineering instincts tell me this is all a bad idea and those layers should be kept separate as they were, if indeed they weren't already intermingled more than they should be (e.g., SSL & SNI; "why should SSL have to know anything at all about how HTTP deals with host names?" say my instincts). However, I intellectually realize that my software engineering instincts are not calibrated for the size of the HTTP world, nor the amount of resources that can be thrown at this problem. It's a great example of slicing through many layers that make sense independently, but just never quite went together properly, to make something that's going to perform better without 30 years of mismatching layers stacked on top of each other.

(I'm not saying HTTP3 is perfect, only that it is a good example of someone at least trying to do what I was talking about.)
