Hey, author here. Thanks for the feedback, sorry about the lack of marketing material - I'll get better at it. Let me address some issues you brought up:

- "all i see is a video of someone fiddling with setting for an already completed app."

The demo isn't starting with an "already completed app". Graphite generates a default app based on your GraphQL schema, and it is up to the user to further customize it to their needs. That's why it looks "already completed".

- "where are the demo showing how to easy it will be to connect your graphql service to this."

Connecting to the GraphQL services was shown in the beginning of the demo video when I typed in the GraphQL URL.

- "where is the demo showing how to actually build a screen with data being pulled from graphql"

Every screen in the demo video showed data being pulled from GraphQL. Graphite generates the queries behind the scenes automatically without the user even knowing.

The fact that cats hunt have been helpful to me in the past. Twice while I was living in an apartment building all of my neighbors had problems with mice. Once in New York and once in Massachusetts. In Massachusetts before my girlfriend came to live with me, I would see the mice. After she came to live with me with her cats, never saw them again. The same when we moved to NYC. While my neighbors all had rotten issues I never saw one mouse or rat in my apartment the entire 8 years living there.
"Cat bites are more likely to introduce bacteria deep into the wound, causing serious infection and damage to tendons and ligaments."

They don't cite a statistical source for this. It sounds like it's based on the preceding fact that cat fangs are sharper and can reach deeper.

The study they link to cover statistics of patients treated for cat bites, but I wonder what percentage of overall cat bites get infected. Most cases that don't probably never reach an emergency room, I would assume.
Electric cars still produce particulate pollution from tire wear. We need to start working on regulation in this space too.

That's what https://metacpan.org/pod/Regexp::Grammars is for, indeed.
There isn't a separate thing called catabolism which can increase available value by neither creating nor transferring it.

Converting one resource to another at an overall net gain is growth. Converting one resource to another when the original resource was equally or more valuable net doesn't improve lives, it's either completely neutral or net harmful.

Note that there are a lot of growth metrics out there that inappropriately fail to account for this, e.g. they measure sale price but not consumer or producer surplus (which are harder to measure because there is no market pricing information available). If someone invents a cheap way to turn farm waste into motor fuel and then suddenly gas is $1/gallon, that's growth -- there is a surplus being created -- even if there is a net reduction in GDP because oil companies are making less money while most of the surplus goes to the consumer. (Though in most cases the reduction in GDP doesn't happen anyway because then consumers have more money in their pockets and spend it on something else.)
It's a straightforward integration to get from initial conditions of the ball throw and backboard angle to the post-bounce trajectory. Physics engines like Bullet will get you that solution very quickly. But determining which backboard angle puts the ball in the center of the hoop is not as straightforward if your physics engine is only designed to do numeric integration of the equations of motion to move a simulation forward in time. You have to run the simulation a few hundred times with different backboard angles to determine which setup puts the ball where you want it.

And that process needs to be done for all possible incoming ball trajectories that would hit that point of the backboard in order to figure out what backboard angle will maximize the number of shots that go in.
The arms allow it since ARMv5, but it's still not quite what one would expect until ARMv7. However it has a significant performance penalty when doing it.

Eliminate all of the wildlife in the yard? Some people actually prefer a diverse array of wildlife over a neighbor's pet.
Yes, up to 64 bits. They're different for x86 SIMD (128 bits and up, SSE & AVX). For example vmovapd (requires alignment) vs vmovupd (can be unaligned).

I don't think this is relevant. Prices and wages going up aren't growth. In fact, inflation represents a _devaluation_ of a unit of held currency. There's a reason everything is measured in real prices instead of nominal.
Hopefully never, on the DNSSEC side. Of course, very few other ISPs (or tech and telecom companies of any sort) use DNSSEC either.
This is interesting, but I don't see any explanation for why this is helpful. Obviously, the author feels that curly quotes are better typographically, but acknowledges that straight quotes are used in legal documents. They never explicitly lay out any reasoning why one should pay attention to this, but instead have more of a how-to guide. Is there any direct reason for this, aside from the author's particular sense of aesthetics?
Of course, you can't please everyone. The distinction is, at least governments try to. Corporations do not, by design, as they are only incentivized to collect money and funnel it to the top X% of the company, not even the company as a whole which includes workers.
I think this is a great idea and I suspect we will also see this happen in the US.
When I try to wrap my brain around this idea, I get a headache.
My argument that you missed, is that this is the poster's personal subjective opinion from the POV of someone who doesn't have skin in the game.

My "there are other people who disagree" happen to have skin in the game (US people on US soil who suffered the 9/11 attacks). Look up Nassim Nicholas Taleb.

If you're gonna say that US people's opinions are also subjective personal opinions, then I'd argue that their subjective opinion still has stronger claims that 9/11 is a national security issue, because they have concrete provable injuries. Compared to someone far away who doesn't have skin in the game and didn't lose anything.

Check your biases and conflict of interests, maybe.

p.s. Plenty others here have added well laid out arguments so I didn't want to just add more of the same.
Third-party package management is not a modern marvel by any means. You are unnecessarily singling out golang, and if you let that stop you from learning it's your loss. Just be smart. Dependency awareness is not black magic.
I think I get what you're saying. I'll say that this product isn't really meant to substitute a community. In fact, I'd consider it a failure if Gentle overtook other sources of companionship in a person's life. My belief is that tech should augment rather than replace, if that makes sense.
I strive to see a selling feature in comparison to gitlab-ci... Mixing its syntax with docker is only so little.
Just finished The Computer Boys Take Over, by Nathan Ensmenger: fascinating read about the deep roots of computing culture. Many of the debates we have today were already raging in the 1950s, 60s, and 70s, including:

* professionalism vs individual creativity
* the value of credentials
* terrible interview practices
* gender roles / biases
* theory/academia vs pragmatism/industry

Recommend the book for getting some historical perspective on these topics.

> The problem with disabling this optimisation is that it will produce garbage code for basically every architecture.

I'm pretty sure this this is not true for modern x64, which is one of the most common desktop architectures: https://lemire.me/blog/2012/05/31/data-alignment-for-speed-m...

Which current architectures are you thinking of? Do you have comparable benchmarks showing the slowdown?
Re-read the thread you’re commenting on.
From a value perspective, according to other comments it's permanently "on sale" is that changes the maths.
I'm not at all implying that my personal experience outweighs any study.

Speaking of published studies, the article I linked sheds an interesting light on one particularly relevant study.
What part of that background looks professional?
I've never really understood why people think this line of reasoning is valid. Prior to the panedemic, I used the bathrooms at the office nearly every day. The toilets are undoubtedly their property, but is it ok for them to put whatever kind of spyware they want in there too?
> Then use a clear, simple, precise language

I'm not in charge of what language the Perl projects choose to use.

You're not arguing against what anyone in this thread said.
`E` is an lvalue --- a location that only becomes a load/store when it is converted to an rvalue or assigned to. `&` takes an lvalue and gives a pointer to that location, so `E` is eliminated without being converted to an rvalue or assigned to, so no harm done.

The real question if why have "lvalues" at all. If assignment always had to have a pointer on the left hand:

&a := ..., b := ...

rather than:

a = ..., , *b = ...

then this problem goes away.
Does anyone know what the dashed red line that roughly encloses the top-left quadrant of the map refers to?

the assumptions going on here are all about costs.

when in reality current transportation infra funding from federal government is about military defense.

its the same reason electricity lines, highways, and train rails don't occupy the same space. there is no reason they couldn't and would reduce costs overall. but it also means a single strike can disable all 3 systems.

in today's world I think its a pointless effort and we should resolve those issues to reduce the overall costs. but here we are.
What will be the economic impact of Covid-19 (and should we care)?
This might not be viable all the time, what if you have a stream of tasks being put to the queue ? The alternative would be to ensure that any change in the job contracts are backward compatible, and if any change in contract would need to have a remediation/migration plan for handling pending tasks.
Ex-communist states. Written there on the map
That’s cute and I’ll definitely try it out. I can see it failing to hit the mark for, say, minorities with particular concerns, though, simply due to sympathy versus empathy.
Yes, for muxless laptops this can be especially useful. However, it is also useful just for ergonomics, where I (who only has one monitor and has no interest in multiple) can make one section of a tiling window manager into Windows and leave it there, and interact with it when needed, without switching display outputs and also mouse/keyboard, which is the bigger hassle.
That’s the FSF point of view, and I and others respectfully disagree. I don’t believe open source is better because of ethics, I do think open source would not work if everyone were as unethical as possible. I will continue to use the term “open source” to refer to the whole shebang, which has been best for communicating to most people who aren’t fighting over terminology semantics as a means to push ideology.

The fact that all of the regions on this map have such odd and arbitrary shapes--along with the fact that they don't correspond to obvious clusters in the underlying scatter plot--does not inspire confidence.
Please don't take HN threads further into flamewar. A topic this is emotional enough as it is, with people hating other people's favorite animals and other people hating back. If you post something cheap and nasty like this, you're dropping a lit match into a petrol tank. We need better than that.

Statistically, cats are really bad at catching mice. They might catch one, maybe kill it, maybe not. Maybe they'll just play with it and let it go.

The death rate in care homes is already pretty high without covid. Ultimately what we really care about is how many years of life the virus is taking away from us.
If I’m worried about catching or spreading the virus, wouldn’t the kiosks be worse? Dozens of people touching the same surface with their bare hands seems more dangerous to me than telling my order to someone over a short distance, especially if masks are involved.
SMR drives have more of a place in the enterprise market than the consumer market, just like tape drives. Enterprise/datacenter customers tend to have a much better understanding of their workloads and are more able to determine when they have a use case for niche technologies. They also have a greater ability to deploy tiered storage with SSDs in front of hard drives to cover up the performance limitations.
I’m being facetious, but what’s to stop someone from registering “microsoft “ (note the space at end)? ASCII printables isn’t limited enough.
My chosen threat model does not allow for significantly less security in exchange for extensions.

Also, they may very well take PRs for extension support (haven't looked through their Issues/roadmap), but, I'm sure it's not on the top of a security-first project's to-do list.
Creativity and originality have tremendous amounts to do with solving UI problems. Here is an example of developers literally lost without a framework to tell them what to build:

I wish I were making that up.

There are many aspects of design that are at first challenging. I just watched this video about inventing a new basketball backboard and it took a lot of work: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22898653 There will always be some minimal thought work to creating and testing any creative or original concept, but with practice the effort involved reduces considerably. Even though some minimal effort is required (as with any task) is not an excuse to avoid effort in the entirety. At some point it is just mental laziness.
But they way you do your job is private, think of it as intellectual property, your know-how, your tricks. In EU this would probably be not allowed.

Churches don't appeal to everyone, they also aren't anonymous.

I'm not saying this as an anti-religion thing, churches are a great source of community and it's probably the best thing about them, just that this is a very apples-to-oranges comparison.

Also I don't think this is a replacement for anything really. A supplement perhaps.
>The worst part is the wealthy in developing nations also gravitate towards US style urban plans, because that is what is sold as 'high class'

I think it's a bit more complicated than that. The urban cores of developing countries are really, really unsafe places (like, homicide rates of 5-50x of the worst US ghettos). Anyone who gets a bit of money & financial security wants to establish physical distance between themselves, their families and a Mad Max-type situation. I can't speak for every developing country, but having a bit of familiarity with Brazil- they have exclusive suburban neighborhoods physically separate from the favelas for a reason. And then they tend to have a private security force for the neighborhood, etc. I don't mean to stereotype people in the favelas as all bad (every one the 50+ Brazilians I've met through BJJ grew up on one!), but I can be sympathetic to families who just want basic security along with a middle class life.

I basically agree with the Strong Towns thesis that Suburbia Is Bad, but what I think most people here are missing is that when suburbs were planned in the US, inner cities were much less safe and people wanted to put physical space between them. Was there a massive element of racism in that? Yes, but.... it's also true that inner cities used to be way, way more dangerous than they are now. Ask any boomer what chic, expensive parts of New York were like in the 60s, 70s, 80s, etc.

Anderson Cooper: After the trial, you discovered that the government knew a lot more about the Garland attack than they had let on?

Dan Maynard: That's right. Yeah. After the trial we found out that they had had an undercover agent who had been texting with Simpson, less than three weeks before the attack, to him "Tear up Texas." Which to me was an encouragement to Simpson.

Interestingly enough, I've just checked the code from this article (https://pzemtsov.github.io/2016/11/06/bug-story-alignment-on...), linked by the OP's article, and guess what - CLANG generates code that does not crash, although it still uses SSE4.

a more sophisticated tool could also vary speed and add typos.

Vice Media did a video about the impact of the feral cat population on Australian wildlife, and the hunters/trappers that are working to cut down on their population[1]. Some of the imagery can be a little brutal if you're averse to that sort of thing, but I found it to be fairly interesting from a conservation methods perspective. It reminds me a little of the work being done in the American South on trying to keep down wild pig and python populations.

Why is it that these "nutritionists" spend all their time talking about clean eating with no results? Clearly regular people can't eat more vegetables and less Doritos. Maybe we'd take them more seriously if they had a reasonable plan to thin America down.

I'm a strong town proponent and advocate (though I live in Portugal where many of these problems never surfaced on the same scale). I'm also a real estate investor.

The crux of it is that the priority for urban planning enthusiasts must be education, not mass rebuilding. A large, large majority of people would still rather take out buy a horrible McMansion in a soulless development than buy a smaller, well-built home closer to their neighbours. Showing off wealth and ticking off features is valued over long-term enjoyment of your home and betterment of the community.

Is it such a surprise that it's hard to get a large number of folks to do what's best in the long term instead of what they want right now?
Worker's compensation only applies to employees. Shrimp fishermen are not employees of BP; opiate addicts are not employees of Purdue Pharma; passengers are not employees of cruise lines, and so on.

Besides, worker's compensation isn't geared to handle large classes of plaintiffs either! The entire point of the mass tort / class action system is that it's a way of handling a large group of plaintiffs in a single case. Worker's compensation works with one plaintiff at a time, which means that a large group of plaintiffs (like the 40,000 alleged here) would completely overwhelm the courts.
My guess, though I have not downvoted, is because it’s off topic. This isn’t a general coronavirus thread. The discussion is about the article posted. Why not submit that link independently?

Wind turbines also kill bats,

http://www.batcon.org/resources/for-specific-issues/wind-pow...

>Current research suggests that the overwhelming majority of bat fatalities are caused by collisions with turbine blades. There is some evidence to suggest that a phenomenon known as barotrauma may result in a small proportion of bat deaths, as well. Barotrauma involves tissue damage to air-containing structures, such as lungs, caused by rapid or excessive pressure change. Air pressure changes can occur at the edges of moving turbine blades and may help explain some bat fatalities.

>Between 2000 and 2011, an estimated 650,000 to 1.3 million bats have died from collisions with wind turbines in the United States and Canada (Arnett and Baerwald 2013). Additionally, as many as 400,000 estimated fatalities may have occurred in 2012.

>in the U.S. and Canada, at least 24 species of bats have been reported as killed by wind turbines. The hoary bat (Lasiurus cinereus), eastern red bat (Lasiurus borealis) and silver-haired bat (Lasionycteris noctivagans), all migratory tree bats, account for nearly 78% of the kills north of Mexico. The hoary bat accounts for 38% of the fatalities. A new study that looked at hoary bat mortality at wind energy facilities during 2014 revealed that populations of the species may plunge by a staggering 90 percent in the next 50 years if no action is taken.

>At some sites in the Midwest and Eastern U.S., species that are already battered by White-nose Syndrome (WNS), can account for up to 60% of wind-energy fatalities.

Two federally endangered species, the Hawaiian hoary bat (Lasiurus cinereus semotus) and the Indiana myotis (Myotis sodalis), also have been killed by turbines.
