Buildpacks are used by Dokku and GitLab AutoDevOps via gliderlabs/herokuish. Herokuish is a large bash script; the language autodetection can be inscrutable at times; it has opinions I don't share (e.g. PHP should not commit composer vendor, and let the buildpack do it); so I switched to Dockerfiles and don't use it any more.

Is this a replacement for herokuish? Can users use it today in those projects, or does it first need to become the default in Dokku and Gitlab? How closely do the environments/behaviours match herokuish?

This library just does self-calls, doesn't optimize(and can't cause of JVM limitations) calls to others functions (mutual recursion).
Perhaps.

In my mind, it seems there's no such thing as an "original" idea, given that all ideas are made from or composed of other ideas (as that's how you describe them). Therefore originality, seems to be just a new combination of old ideas you've already been exposed to.

As an example, can you ever imagine a color that's not composed of a combination of colors you've already seen before? A truly original color?

Otherwise, if you're trying to communicate an idea to another, and cannot describe the idea using existing ideas, it might be considered truly original. But what does one do in this case? You show or demonstrate it to them...

As so, ideas seemingly come from observation - or more specifically - our senses, and any subsequent ideas built from thereof.

Thus, if there's a limit to we can sense and observe, then ideas would also be limited or "finite", and we would naturally find ideas becoming "harder to find" eventually...

I believe Ludwig Wittgenstein mentioned something like this in his work Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus.

> Is there some reason to think Cuban has some useful thoughts here?

Sure. He has invested into hundreds of businesses of every size spanning two decades. He has intimate experience with the operations of small and large size businesses of most every type, along with their operating requirements in all regards.

A huge part of the recovery is getting small, medium, large businesses all back to functioning properly. From his perch, he sees a lot of what's going on at multiple levels. He is one of the couple hundred prominent business persons selected for Trump's recovery advisory council.

He knows his stuff and he keeps close tabs on all of his investments (and the broader economic environment), which is remarkable given the expanded scope of his activities. I've done business with Mark in the past and can vouch for all of this personally. People often have wide-ranging responses to him based on his outsized personality, however he is very sharp, he's a smart guy and understands business at a high level of competency. People that dig on him by saying he's just a lucky dotcom billionaire, don't actually know him.

edit: so let's hear your retort, downvote brigade.

I'm probably one of the only people in this thread qualified to speak to the actual question the parent posed, as I have years of experience being in business with Cuban. I know how he operates and how he deals with businesses. Everybody else here is talking out of their ass.

Likely not, the more likely explanation is asymptomatic cases. There is a possibility of false positives and that could be driven by something like these nonspecific antibodies so that's why I say "likely not" vs "definitely not" and the answer to whether it "could" is yes, but whether it "does" I personally I think asymptomatic cases are the more likely explanation

So far what i've send of the RCE i've seen so far has been a way of triggering pop-ups on the start screen - not to say its not more dangerous than that, but just thought i'd give some context.

Most RCE's aren't carte blanche to run arbitrary code on a users computer, but are some way of triggering a particular code path on a remote computer.
Hi Chris. I built a demo with LiveView a year ago and am very happy to see all the improvements.

One thing I didn't understand from the video is how the :post_updated callback worked. It prepends the updated post to the list of posts. How come that doesn't lead to the same post being double in the list?

Howard Schultz and Mike Bloomberg fell for this trap too, and it didn't turn out well for them.

It must be difficult to get honest advice as a billionaire, because these guys seem to be quite uninformed about how unpopular they actually turn out to be in the political arena.
It looks like what they have now is openssh like. Client 1 sends data to the server encrypted. Server decrypts. Server reencrypts and sends to client 2.

This describes how to communicate in such a way where the client 1 and 2 can communicate with the server in the data path and The server being unable to see the contents of the message.

The hard part is key management between clients in a secure way.
I'm still unclear about what it was supposed to be able to do that an electrified scooter or bike couldn't.

When the Segway was released? It could do this one cool trick: actually exist. Electric bikes and scooters (at least at any sort of scale) were at least ten years off.

There were other factors. Ungodly expensive for what it was, and poor enough range that I questioned whether it could get the six-ish miles from the house to Microsoft's main campus with that WA-520 hill to contend with. Now my Boosted Rev scooter can almost do the 7.5 mile round trip to work, with that same WA-520 hill, and for 1/3rd the price the original Segway was going for.

EDIT: oh, wait a minute, the max speed on the original Segway was like 20kph/12mph, right? Yeah, the Rev would easily make the 15 mile round trip if I were riding it that slowly.
The fact that the servers didn't immediately get shut down is pretty irresponsible. There's tens of thousands of people logged in to tf2 who are at risk of having their computers pwned because the tf2 servers are still up.
None of the answers/comments below even come close to answering the simple question that started this thread. This looks like an overly complex solution looking for a problem to me.

> Imagine when your fridge can do this

I've been posting for years that an effective grid "battery" is internet connected refrigerators, water heaters, A/C, car chargers, etc., that only run when power is cheap, i.e. when solar/wind is providing excess power.

A great deal of our demand for electricity is elastic and shiftable, which will eliminate a huge chunk of the need for grid batteries.

Glad to see this finally gaining some traction!
> One way to do it would be assign various jobs a value. Or you could use real money.

It's not the value of the outcome for that job that you're interested, but rather its sensitivity to a delayed latency in executing it.

For example, preemptively converting Youtube videos to a lower resolution with optimum compression to avoid having to do it in real-time (when video is played) at a crappy compression (to be fast), is valuable for sure. It's just that it can be postponed for 24 hours without real impact. Executing a search for a single user is less valuable in terms of overall impact but much more latency-sensitive.

(you can think of value and latency-sensitive in terms of two dimensions that are independent between them.)

This idea helps save the planet for sure, but it requires cloud-providers to build APIs that enable devs to switch from the "here's the SSH to the server, do what you want with it" to a model where it's the devs that say instead "here's a lambda function and its desired latency execution, please schedule to run it for me and let me know when the result is ready" ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inversion_of_control )

Google was able to do that because it owns a large part of the jobs executed in their datacenters. Hence they could build this adaptive scheduling for their own jobs quickly without necessarily passing through a cloud-based API that inverts the control of job scheduling.
I disagree to a certain extent. My company pays dues for my professional certifications and so on. It is still technically money, but not directly in my hand; just money I don't have to spend. There are similar items that are less tangible.
I had that rich friend with the Neo Geo.

Yeah, I wonder if Magic Leap had started small and luxury, installing that Beast contraption with the undiluted experience to rich people, it could've grown more like Tesla. Of course, the Roadster ran on all the same roads, while whole new experiences have to be created for AR, but make a few great ones and it'll be like having a bowling lane in your house—you don't play with it except to show off to visitors. (Oh, League Bowling was the one game I remember playing on my friend's Neo Geo. He wasn't bowling-lane rich.)

Or Magic Leap could've licensed some Virtual Boy games.

"offline support" is strictly on the side of needing to run a lot of code on the client, so this is where we draw a line and say you need a js framework, of which there are number of great options. We have javascript interop via phx-hook, so it could be made to work, but you'd necessarily have to have a lot of js running on the client, and any feature you wanted to work online & offline would not share a code path or need js, thus client side rendering and templating gets involved and suddenly we're writing a SPA. If we're strictly talking allowing the edit of a textual input and syncing on reconnect, it would be straight forward to do with LV and some small js hooks, but the moment you start adding offline UI features you'll need a js library.

The funny thing is last I tried to use Google Docs offline, it locked the page in read-only mode, so offline mode even in the SPA space isn't just a given – you're definitely opting in to some necessary complexity.

Cuban is an ok guy, but the healthcare comments are a good example of him being plain wrong.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/tv/2019/11/04/s...

This is an example of him arguing with a MD. Cuban takes an issue with the doctor stating that consumer driven health care from non medical professionals is responsible for overuse of antibiotics. Cuban gets heated and dismisses the doctor as a quack when the doctor makes a completely legitimate point.

Mark Cuban, like all successful people in life, is great at providing a loud opinion on everything and especially with areas that aren't his expertise.
Cool, that sounds reasonable then. Good stuff.

UWP apps use different APIs to interact with windows than Win32. So at least in theory, the OS can actively manage them similar to Android or iOS apps.

I've noticed that Zen 2 on desktop can easily suffer from re-occurring spikes in temperature, caused by background Win32 running on a 10-30 second timer, doing small amount of work that causes the cpu to Boost to it's maximum clock, then drop back down.
I could see that mitigated a lot of that with drivers or CPU code that is much slower to ramp up in response to load, but it would be better still if the OS wasn't running any Apps that behaved like that, especially while User isn't actively interacting.
Our amendment process is not for the faint of heart, and so amendments are rare. An amendment can be proposed by two-thirds of Congress or by 2/3 of the State legislatures, but to be ratified you need 3/4 of the States to agree and each State has equal voice regardless of population.

During the ratification process for the Constitution, there was some debate about whether a Bill of Rights was even necessary, but there were many States that didn’t want to ratify without one. The reason for the debate is that the liberties in the Bill of Rights were taken to already be natural rights and so spelling them out was unnecessary, but the Anti-Federalist faction wasn’t convinced.

Madison eventually won his seat in the election of the First Congress against Monroe (fun fact, they traveled together while campaigning!) by campaigning on the promise to draft and propose a Bill of Rights, but he didn’t see the lack of one as a reason to hold up the ratification conventions.

So repealing the First Amendment wouldn’t have the effect of repealing Free speech per se. Congress would still have to justify regulating speech under its enumerated powers (and could still lose elections over the issue) and many State constitutions already have their own takes on it. Some more like Norway’s Article 100, and some more like the First Amendment.

I've heard a number of times that static typing would be near impossible for Erlang because of how message-passing works, but just the other day I read a quote where one of the creators (I think it was Joe Armstrong, but not completely certain) indicated that the primary reason they decided against static typing was the hot code reloading, not the feasibility. or not primarily anyways.

Not disagreeing with you, I guess. It was just surprising/interesting to read.

Sadly I can't find the quote...

It's just sports, but winning a title isn't nothing, and if you've followed his sports career, he was big into advanced stats decently early and the Mavs are as good as anyone at finding diamonds in the rough.

There's obviously Dirk and Doncic, but they were also really close on getting Giannis. That shows some kind of insight. Not to mention, small ball dominates the league today, but the Don Nelson Mavs were doing that in 2003.

I know it is just sports, but sports are some of the most competitive domains in the world, with the ability to innovate, which he has done. I don't think HN's preference for tech should just ignore what he's accomplished.

Don't forget, PG and YC are only what they are because Viaweb was purchased in the same wave as Broadcast. Neither of those companies matter today.
What an odd article, I have to admit I spent a good while questioning whether i'd got the my own understanding of the value of mental models totally wrong. My first issue with the article is that i've never really seen any claims that by understanding mental models you will be furnished with the skill to either win at MMA or beat the stock market (or anything else for that matter). This leaves me wondering why these very narrow examples of the value of mental models are used as a foundation to the argument.

Knowledge and wisdom is built on abstractions (this is well established). When i think about how i have distilled the things i know, im certain that its finding the correct abstraction - the correct picture or mental model. for example a mental modal about winner takes all markets allows you to understand that certain markets have this trait and therefore the mental model allows you to identify this class of market efficiently due to a nice terse abstraction. I really don't see the link the author makes between understanding the mental model of a winner takes all market meaning that you should all of a sudden be an expert in how to beat one, you may know the basics but i think most people would also know there is experience, nuance and instinct involved - very indefinite things, unlike a the classification that the mental model portrays. Knowledge is built upon abstractions and therefore mental models are just that, its the classification of knowledge that captures a model (generally static) of the world. In understanding a mental model you get some insight distilled into a neat abstraction. Believing you can win at anything just by understanding a mental model... thats crazy surely !?
I did not hear that in the video - could you pinpoint the timestamp? I would also not be OK with that.
This article seems to be saying that theory is insufficient for understanding. Practice is required. I completely agree.

That doesn't negate the value of mental models. Mental models are absolutely required for understanding any complex system. They are literally how we think. They should be refined through direct experience. Listening to experts doesn't hurt either.

What has me worked up is that the examples in the article are just garbage.

A person skilled in tennis or MMA will have no problem communicating to you what it takes to acquire their skill. It so happens the most efficient way to communicate complex physical motions is to model them, then allow the student to attempt them, then critique the student's form. Finally the student will require many hours of practice of the correct forms to build muscle memory. There is nothing in here that says anything about mental models.

"How do you know if a computer program is badly designed? You don’t go through a mental checklist; instead, you feel disgust, coloured by your experience."

You absolutely better have a mental checklist and solid technical reasons for why it's badly designed. Imagine going to your boss, asking to do a complete re-write because you feel disgusted by the code base. How is that going to work out for you? Maybe it's algorithms that are not performant. It has inconsistent abstractions, too much abstraction, or too little. It may not accurately model the problem domain. A feeling of disgust is not going to get you anywhere. Technical knowledge and experience will.

Ok. Clearly this article hit one of my buttons. I think I'm done now.
In Australia the minimum wage is $19.49/hr and it has the world's most liberal welfare where it's perfectly easy for anyone to get $1130/mo (more if you have kids, more for rent assistance.) even university students can get paid to go to school.

Those things have been true and in place for decades, and they have not destroyed the economy. There are not jobs that are unfilled because people don't want to do them. In fact Australia's economy survived the 2008 crash as well as the best in the world, and continues to be very strong.

You don't need to make guesses about what will happen if free money from the government is available to the masses, you can look at places that are almost doing it already.

Locking down doesn't terribly help vulnerable populations. It's only advantage is that it keeps people who were less likely to catch it to begin with from catching it, and as a result reduces the hospital load.

Here in Iowa the majority of outbreaks are either in nursing homes or meat packing plants. Locking down does nothing to help them. We could shut down the meat packing plants, but then we kill the food supply chain, which is a disaster for everyone. Nursing homes are basically sitting ducks no matter what.

If it's a fire we can't put out except by letting it burn through, then our best choice is to open up to the point that we are burning at maximum capacity. Hospitals here are laying off workers because they aren't allowed to do anything except wait for a crash of Covid-19 patients that so far hasn't come.

If the bottleneck is the hospitals like people have been saying all along, then hospitals being so empty they can't even pay their staff means we have gone to far.
