Yeah so I just was searching on that and saw this too... like they would need to be nearly 70% of a market for coercive strategies to be antitrust (although I take it % isn’t the only test). Hard to see how one would define a market where that would be true.

Python's grammar is so very rich. Many programs are rejected for "syntactic" reasons if they do not fit into the abstract syntax [0]; I suppose that this could be some sort of "AbstractSyntaxError", if Python had such a thing.

For some examples:

x == not y

Rejected by the parser itself.

not x = y

Accepted by the parser and AST builder, and only rejected by the bytecode compiler.

f(*xs,)

Rejected by the parser itself.

...

Rejected somewhere between the parser and the AST builder. Valid uses of Ellipsis are actually special-cased; it is not a standard part of the abstract syntax.

Ask HN: A real-life use case for Lisp macros that beginners can understand?
I'm a novice in Lisp (specifically Clojure) and I got interested in the language because of the macro system.

However, all the examples I've seen so far seem pretty convoluted and just made me think "Why would I want to do that?". I think I just didn't "get" it yet.

Is there a simple real-life example that shows the usefulness of the Lisp macro system to a beginner?

"California’s legislature recently passed a law, Assembly Bill 5, codifying a California Supreme Court decision that classifies many independent contractors as full-time employees" . . .

In effect, classifying more and more independent contractors as employees as just a "backdoor parlor trick" for government to collect more employment taxes . . .

FedEx is also a parody of a service in the US. They are acknowledged to be strong in logistics in a cross-country way, but as far as "last mile" goes they leave plenty to be desired. Beat-up packages, wildly unsafe drivers, unreliable tracking, and totally inaccurate delivery estimates.

The only reason I'm ever glad to see one of their trucks on the road is as evidence UPS has at least some sort of competition. But if I see one pull up to my home I cringe, because invariably there will be some problem.

Boeing is a defense contractor that has well-developed supply chains. If we got into a shooty war and needed more airplanes, Boeing can build them. You don't want to be caught going into a shooty war without the ability to reinforce your equipment. And if you do, you can convert the commercial manufacturing capacity to military to much greater effect if the commercial side is already at super-scale. The capability is worth the subsidies IMO.

Boeing also ensures American interests dominate the skies around the world. There just aren't that many manufacturers of aircraft, and Boeing spreads American influence / values across the globe as an essential part of infrastructure. Airbus does the same for the EU.

The Role of Web of Science Publications in China's Tenure System
As a pathologist, I spend a fair chunk of every day using microscopy optics which are in every way equivalent to AR's IPD problem. The honest answer is your brain has to learn to integrate those two images, and it will take months of daily use for multiple hours, with associated headaches, neck aches, back pain, etc to figure it out exactly right, but the trick is that by then, you won't have figured it out exactly right. By the time everything snaps into place, you brain will have also learned to snap it into place. My eye-brain system gathers information through oculars in a way that others do not. It's a matter of physical training, like so many things.

That's not to say quality doesn't matter. My undergrad is in physics, and the quality of the oculars in a clinical microscope puts to shame pretty much everything else I've seen. Even telescopes at the tops of mountains aren't as nice, ergonomically.

Well, first of all they'd have some obligation to ascertain that, and that alone won't come cheap. Effectively, Rebecca was likely more productive than the law allows, so they would need to provide her with ridiculously outsized benefits even though she is clearly a genuine independent contractor, and it's likely that other contributors were also too productive for the law. Though, and this bears repeating, even figuring that out is going to be very expensive.

My concern is you (contentful) are leading folks down a bad path. Adding complexity, code, cost and a larger surface area of services that need to be up.
I fail to see how quickly shutting the hood in cases of catastrophic failure address my concerns. When you're dealing with pressure differentials and compressed gasses, explosions and implosions are a very real risk, and shutting the fume hood, even quickly, will not help in the fraction of a second these failures would take to fill your lab with aerosolized HF and shrapnel.

Even working at negative pressures, you can easily end up with a positive-pressure manifold if your sample is unexpectedly evolving gas at a higher than usual rate, or your valves aren't configured as intended. To be clear, these aren't academic exercises; I've actually seen all of these happen. With closed systems, you have to anticipate explosive pressures and plan accordingly. HF is incompatible with that kind of failure.

I'm not so familiar with scheme, but I can perhaps give useful answer regarding how this works with SBCL (Probably the most well known common lisp implementation).

In SBCL, we would commonly say that code is "evaluated" rather than compiled or interpreted. This is because "compiler" is referring specifically to when assembly is emitted and "interpreter" is referring to when code is being used to call already compiled code. In the case of SBCL, it is doing both of these things simultaneously when it is reading a ".lisp" file. For example, if this is the contents of my .lisp file:

(defun boop () (print "hello"))

(boop) ;; prints hello

(defun scoop () (print "goodbye"))

The boop function is being evaluated (and therefore compiled), and then called on the next line. In traditional algol based languages like c and java with a separate compilation phase, it would not be possible to call boop before scoop has been turned into machine code.

So you are asking how the costs of evaluating lisp are distributed?

For one, the assembler generated whilst evaluating the .lisp file can be cached in a .fasl file so that it does not need to be evaluated again to be loaded into other projects.

Another is that macro's can be evaluated once during function definition. e.g.

(defmacro moob () `(print "kellog"))

(defun foo () (moob)) ; evaluates to (defun funky () (print "kellog"))

(defmacro moob () `(print "fish")) ; redefining moob

(foo) ; will print "kellog" because funky was evaluated before moob was redefined.

In this case, the cost of calling moob is trivial because it only occurs once during the definition of foo. It will slow down the initial load of your program, but no subsequent calls to foo.

The thing is, I'm pretty sure "free" spyvertising-funded stuff harms both paid and actually free, as in non-commercial, solutions. The market for the former is reduced significantly, and with the demand/audience for the latter also hollowed out, the incentive to work on them is reduced, in a feedback loop (worse actually-free product or service, more users go to the spying one, repeat).

I've seen a company try to build a streaming/DVR box. It failed for a bunch of reasons but among those was that it wasn't expected/able to spy on the user and monetize the data—all its competitors did, and they all sold their devices, retail, for right at what these devices would cost the manufacturer to build them (in part, but not entirely, because they're subsidized by spying), so if they wanted to make any money and wanted to actually get on store shelves (often a minimum margin required) they were talking a significantly higher price; meanwhile most people aren't even aware that their competitors are spying on their users in some super-creepy ways, so that's a really hard sell, especially if you aren't already at or beyond feature parity.

RFC 6530 doesn't mention those character sets explicitly. It proposes allowing all Unicode characters, apart from some control characters.

It is true that the RFC recommends mailbox providers take normalization into account. A mailbox provider that allows i and dotless-i addresses to be routed to different mailboxes is careless, if not actually uncompliant. I don't know if any popular provider does this: I'm guessing the authors created their own to demonstrate this attack.

I don't think this is true, Apple has definitely been raising prices significantly in the last few years even on the cheapest models. Unless you're counting still being able to buy a generation or two behind for cheaper as "current generation"

There's a couple of blips with the 5c and the SE but for the most part even the "budget models" are more expensive than the flagships of old, and the flagships are significantly more expensive.

It may not have the popularity but it has a well resourced technical team behind its development resulting in the Dart VM being a highly tuned technically brilliant piece of engineering. It has great support for server scenarios like gRPC [1] which I'd imagine is a popular back-end for Flutter iOS/Android Apps which is my personal #1 pick atm for native cross-plat iOS/Android development.

I was an early adopter and saw promise in Dart based on the strength of its technical team (originally led by Lars Bak, Kasper Lund, Gilad Bracha, Bob Nystrom, etc) so invested a lot of time in developing a express-like web framework [2], Jade View Engine [3], Redis Client [4], JSON Client, etc. It had a nice/clean development experience, well-designed / fast libraries and APIs even back then, but abandoned it 6 years ago after going to work full-time on my own Startup and have been out of the loop of Dart VM/Server since then. Here's a short list of Dart web server frameworks I could find after a quick Google Search:

Looks like Aqueduct [6] is the most popular at 1.4k stars, though I'd expect Dart Server is not going to see a major uptick until Google commits to a major project initiative like they're doing with Flutter & Angular Dart. So it might only see traction as a Dart gRPC server which can still provide an end-to-end development experience with SPA development with Angular Dart / gRPC Web / gRPC Dart and Flutter / gRPC Dart which I'll also add after having gone through a comparison of gRPC clients in different languages [6], Dart has basically the nicest async development experience [7].
