Those dry out. They're there to help a tri-phase motor run on single phase power and that's massively abusive to the caps. They tend to get hot enough that the electrolyte slowly evaporates in spite of a lot of effort to seal them. If you look carefully you'll find a little 'x' somewhere in the plastic bottom, that's an overpressure relief. If it is distended outward that cap is about to die.
I fold laundry after ironing so that I can store it unwrinkled in the closet. I clean the kitchen after I cook, as otherwise it would quickly become messy (a biohazard).

When you say, "very slow" what do you mean?

gzip is fast relative to other compression algorithms and relative to internet speeds.

gzip is slower than an ideal gigabit network, but faster than 100mb.

> Also covered by the Commerce Clause, since 1937.

So you're saying the commerce clause requires states to keep intra-state transportation infrastructure open, regardless of the public safety risk? That's unbelievable, since that infrastructure is regularly closed for public safety reasons (e.g. closing roads during blizzards):

The only way to solve this problem is as you reach the slow zone add a bigger gap in front of you, and leave that gap there until the zone is over.

There was austerity in the 80s in Romania, just like in the 70s in Poland. In both cases, it was enforced through IMF policy that came with the loans given. The loans were sought in both cases in order to increase industrial production and sell goods to the West.

After WW2 and the fascist dictatorship, Romania was extremely poor and basically feudal. It is truly astonishing how quickly it was industrialised and how quickly the people's material condition improved: https://mobile.twitter.com/isgoodrum/status/1136693839526223...

No one was homeless (rent was max 5% of income) or unemployed (guaranteed jobs), essentials were cheap (food, clothes and trains), all education and healthcare were free, etc. While mistakes were made back then and technology has advanced since, economic inequality has vastly increased after 89.
Given that the Commerce Clause "allows" the Congress to regulate even intrastate (or intrahousehold[0] !!) commerce, I'm sure it can be found to allow regulation of intrastate travel.

Well yah, those are all ratio-tuned codecs that are very slow. LZMA beats bzip2 on both ratio and speed so you might as well forget about bzip2 forever. Zstd, snappy, LZ4, or even brotli are probably better choices than zlib for most people. Brotli has LZMA-like ratios at dramatically higher speeds.

It's also likely faster to parse; string and array sizes are statically known, and all parsing happens in order, so there's no backtracking. Want to parse a string in JSON? okay, this is a starting quote, so let's iterate down the rest of the document, looking for unescaped end quotes, and then copy that into a buffer. In msgpack, it's a single memcpy. Additionally, with number heavy messages, then it shines.

{"red": 127,"green": 28,"blue": 27,"x": -18,"y": 27,"z": 2008,"time": 1583862185,"dollars": 1298,"cents":12,"name":"tom",timeseries":[1,2,3,4,55,66,77,218,239,340,9009,80008,400004]}

gives 106 bytes with msgpack and 157 with gzip. Also, if you gzip the msgpack, for your message example, it's 248 bytes.
The algorithms you name are all rather outdated.

Typical gzip decompression speed is somewhere in the 200-250 MB/s region, compression is much slower. LZ4 for example tends to compress at ~600-700 MB/s, and decompress at several GB/s. zstd is tweakable over a very wide range of ratio-speed trade-offs.

LZMA(2) (xz) is a rather troubled format and should not be used any more. bzip2 has always been slower than gzip with usually marginally better compression. It has been irrelevant for a long time.

I love svelte. but now resorting to server rendered html pages with sprinkles of JS. shit I work on and I have noticed in the world doesn't really need frameworks like react, svelte, vue etc.
If you're streaming messages I guess the good comparison would be protobuf + gRPC?
One advantage is that you can pack and unpack msgpack on an Arduino but you can't run gzip on that hardware.
I thought the appeal of JSON was that it is, among other things, somewhat human readable. The gain in bytes does not seem to justify the loss of human readability. Am I missing something?

Author here, just wanted to make a note. This isn't written to hype a battle in the holy war. Frontend frameworks are a positive sum game! Svelte has no monopoly on the compiler paradigm either. Just like I think React is worth learning for the mental model it imparts, where UI is a (pure) function of state, I think the frontend framework-as-compiler paradigm is worth understanding. We're going to see a lot more of it because the tradeoffs are fantastic, to where it'll be a boring talking point before we know it.
Don't use GitHub, use something else where you maintain a reasonable level of control.

You’ll have to design that based on your workload and requirements.
Not sure why you are being down voted, sending binary data is a well known issue with JSON, and base64 can be pretty costly if using a naive implementation.

In a previous life I inherited a service that shipped tons of data (billions of requests a week) as base64 encoded protobuf strings over HTTP. It was a bad solution in so many ways, but there were historical reasons why it had gotten there. The system required a number of servers and I decided to do some profiling to see if there were some quick gains that could be made. As it turns out, about 60% of CPU time was spent decoding base64 using Python's standard library. I was shocked.
I don't agree. When compared to other offerings (LastPass, BitWarden) 1password consistently comes up short in enterprise features. 1password doesn't even have an API. Three of the biggest issues I have with 1password:

1. If a user fails (or skips) 2FA, they still retain complete access to any passwords/vaults they previously locally synced... they just can't sync new/updated entries. This seems like a really flawed design - a 2FA failure should prevent access. When I asked the 1password team whether they'd consider invalidating local cache on 2FA failure, they did not seem interested.

2. You can't create links to passwords, which would allow management of an entry from a single location. If you want to share a password across multiple teams/vaults, you need to know about and maintain those entries for the same account, which means you also have to have access to all those vaults to manage that entry. This discourages password rotation, and increases the likelihood of orphaned passwords in other vaults.

3. Lack of granular permissions structure. You can't, for example, allow a user to initiate vault resets without giving them full admin access to the entire thing. Again, other password managers allow more fine-grained control.

To me, 1password feels like a small-time solution that tried to bolt on some enterprise features to retain customers. I don't think it should be considered enterprise software.

Agree. Most systems have to be optimized in other areas first and I wouldn't give up the debuggability of JSON for a fraction of percent of increase in performance.
Plus Mars has an atmosphere (95% CO2, 3% Nitrogen, 2% Argon, 1% other at 1% of Earth atmospheric presure IIRC), which the Moon utterly lacks.

Compress that into a tank and you can chemically (or biologically) convert that into an oxygen-nitrogen atmosphere to breathe.

"gzip vs bzip2 vs xz performace comparison" is like comparing which centenarian can limp faster, it might be entertaining for some people, but is generally not relevant.

gzip looks fast perhaps compared to "xz -9", but not to anything modern.
This has been done in various hard science fiction novels. One series, the name escapes me at the moment, actually has one group of engineered human warriors that are quite different mentally from normal humans but they can survive in vacuum and have some insect-like traits physically. They can just drift through vacuum and quietly attach to the hull of an enemy ship.

Then you have the Old Man's War universe where the soldiers have engineered bodies and synthetic blood that they have control over (they can explode mosquito like creatures that try to feed on them as an example).

B. V. Larson's Star Force series sees characters changed by both nano bots and specifically-grown intelligent (as a colony) vats of bacteria.

Many science fiction series involve brain backus. If I'm not mistaken Peter F. Hamilton has them in his Commonwealth Saga and the Altered Carbon books and show have it. As does the previously mentioned Old Man's War series by Scalzi.

Daniel Suarez's book (his near-future hard science fiction books are quite good) Change Agent involves lots of serious genetic engineering, including changing one's entire appearance (rather dangerously) with a virus.

I think if we can manage to stay alive long enough as a species, we will be able to at least do everything except for the nano bots and possible even those if we get some significant physics and computational breakthroughs.

As a pre-teen in the mid 1990's a friend and I wanted to turn ourselves into anthropormphic creatures not unlike the creatures in the Island of Dr. Moreau (I believe it was actually the 1996 film adaptation that gave us the idea) and figured somehow a bacteriophage could be created to alter a host at a cellular level but we figured you'd need to find a way to selectively edit genes (that now exists with CRISPR and the like), suppress the immune system to prevent death from it overreacting during the process, and control the replication rate so the body wouldn't burn up with fever or have some sort of energy issue. If a couple of bored pre-teens could think that up while playing a MUD one afternoon, someone someday is going to start really tinkering with humans at a serious scale. It's already being done by biohackers.
Reported 647 across the US, 162 in Washington. Obviously that number is severely limited by testing capacity. But they are the only numbers to go with, everything else is just guessing.
Their premise is even more deeply flawed than that. AFAICT, they didn't consider selection bias seriously enough.

I'm not sure if it's politically correct to say this, but, e.g., it's entirely possible that particularly meticulous coders are both more likely to select a strong, statically typed functional language and generate bugs at a lower rate. And that the effect turns out to be almost entirely due to the person and not the programming language.

There are also some fundamentally unanswerable questions. Like, would dynamic typing come off looking better if the selection of dynamic languages weren't dominated by warty messes like php and ecmascript?
The question there is did you lost more than $75 not executing trades you wanted to execute? There's risk but a lot of risk in a platform that might crumble because its a startup.

Depends on how well encased they are. They can definitely build up enough pressure to explode if internally shorted and not pierced.
It's just a nice default to pick. (But JSON is "simple" so msgpack did not really catch on. And probably won't for the reasons others mentioned.)

I had some health issues starting from age 40: untreated sleep apnea that I didn't know about for at least 10 years -> led to (combined with?) low thyroid -> led to IBS and something like a food allergy to legumes and nightshades (leaky gut). Which resulted in the worst burnout I've ever had in my life and a falling out with my favorite job I've ever had.

I finally started climbing out of the hole I was in around October or November of last year, and got "back to normal" around February of this year after taking an online survey and realizing that I had most of the symptoms of ADHD. My steps:

* Started eating bacon again and more meat in general, because tryptophan is converted to serotonin in the gut. There are also vegetarian options for this which I've listed below (this was the single biggest factor that led to my recovery).

* Started taking iodine, I immediately had energy again and my eyebrows grew back (for thyroid).

* Started taking syllium husk powder (Metamucil) 1-3 times per day and drinking kefir to feed good bacteria (for gut health).

* Starting keeping todo lists so I could separate the planning and doing of tasks (for ADHD primarily, to overcome task anxiety and executive dysfunction).

* Started saying no and slowing down in general, to provide time for meditation, daydreaming and seeing myself from the outside/being grateful like the visualization exercises of astral projection (for ADHD, depression and anxiety).

I could write at length about this because the journey has been difficult, frustrating, but enjoyable and rewarding as well. I think that western culture discounts mental health to such a degree that we sacrifice our lives for inanimate things like money and responsibility. I also think that a substantial part of mental health issues are physiological and environmental. Carrying a chronically high load of cortisol our entire lives is just not natural.

There are things the state could do short of a travel ban, but beyond asking people to wash their hands.

For example, there are lots of public gatherings that can't afford to stop voluntarily - or if they can, can't afford to pay their employees through such a closure. Tell cinemas to stop selling tickets for two months but keep paying their rent and staff and some will go bankrupt.

A state that wanted cinemas closed could inject money (or motivation) to make it happen.

Likewise with theatres, gyms, casinos, restaurants, music festivals and suchlike. Much less travel if there's nothing to travel to!

If you're willing to do dynamic shader generation as text, you can generate shader bytecode. The real question is which of the two options produces more performant shaders and faster compile times, since naively-generated shader bytecode isn't being optimized like your text is. If you care about compile times text-based can be a lot worse (this matters for the Dolphin emulator, for example)

For me, protecting people from themselves should never be a policy priority. I have struggled with depression, probably still do, but I genuinely don't think the ideal solution to gun related deaths is to take away the right to own a gun. Even if it's effective. We're hitting a point where we are becoming capable of protecting people despite their own wishes due to technological advances, and we're going to have to make some decisions wrt how far we want to take it.

Personally, I'd rather err on the side of freedom than safety. There are alternatives available to us that don't infringe on freedoms so much, such as universal health care and increased treatment options for mental illness, which I think would be very much preferable. I think this argument extends to encryption such that encryption can be used for nefarious ends, just as guns can be used for nefarious ends. There are definitely parallels. How much freedom do we want to trade, how far do we want to take this thing?

Dosulpine, and tricyclics, have SNRI effects, rather than SSRI effects, so I don't think fluoxetine would work here.

In my case, I had only been taking it for a few weeks, and tapered off slowly until I was only taking a quarter of a pill - I was not prepared for what ensued.

You are right though, not everyone experiences the same things with these kinds of medicines - presumably it all comes done to genetics.

But I think it's worth mentioning that SNRIs and SSRIs can have awful side effects, especially since this often seems to be downplayed or even downright ignored by doctors (mine didn't even mention it as a possibility, and had even told me it was OK to stop without tapering).
