There are a few certbot clients for openbsd, at least. I’m using one that was written in bash with httpd, and I think they added a new one to the base image. Using the script was a bit annoying because I had to install bash from ports.

As on my Linux and Synology machines, the bash script has broken once or twice because it’s against modern best practices to define and stick with stable protocols.

Sometimes I think it would be easier to rewind to the 90’s web and build a sane ecosystem on top of that. Every aspect of the web that I interact with has gotten worse in the last decade.

No, these are not making your point for you. You bring up :import and :use, but in truth, a beginner or intermediate Clojure user is not going to use either of them at all; and when they choose to, it'll be because they have some deeper knowledge which will make the documentation appropriate to them. :import is primarily for people who understand Java and the JVM. If you know what you're importing, you will understand :import quickly; if you don't know what you're importing, you have no use for :import anyway. In the case of :use, nobody needs :use; it is useful primarily to the people who know why it is useful, and the documentation for it is suitable for that audience.

Getting started in Clojure is not a nightmare, ordinary people do it all the time, the fact that somebody said it was a nightmare says very little.

Clojure's mechanism for requiring packages is far from byzantine, whether you "budge" on that or not; many Clojure libraries have the snippet for including the current stable release of that library at the top of their README on GitHub. It isn't matter of "sticking with it" or "figuring out something that works for you", it is literally one relatively simple piece of knowledge that is learned once and works forever.

In short, if you find namespaces and importing byzantine in Clojure, you are probably at the level of struggling to write fizzbuzz in any language. The fact that there are features other than :require in ns does not indicate that :require is complicated, it just indicates that ns has features.

The best and most simple onboarding process I've ever experienced was with expensify. I don't know if it's still like this, but you just enter your email address and you're in... your account is running and you're logged in. Everything else can be figured out later.

Bots? Idle new accounts are probably deleted after a number of days. Password? A reset/creation link can be sent to your email the next time you try to login. Payment? That's only important if you're going to use the software -- it can be handled when appropriate.

Unless your service has some major expense or limited resource associated with account setup (ex. assigning the user a new phone number), I would love to see more signups like this. The lack of friction made me feel so happy as a customer and I instantly had a positive impression of the service because it already felt like it was adding value by making my life easier. I wouldn't be surprised if this also has a positive impact on their conversion rate.

Agreed! I found learning Elixir to be a great gateway to learn Erlang as well. When I first tried learning Erlang (before Elixir was released), it became a bit too much to wrap my head around. It was a lot easier when I had gotten the fundamentals of FP down through Elixir, though!

The primary constraint on housing supply in most developed economies is planning restrictions, and those could be lifted with the stroke of a pen.

That’s because for decades, we’ve also been destroying low volatility, decent paying jobs via outsourcing and automation and concentrating high paying secure employment into fewer regions.
Interesting, I’ve only went through the effort of checking out a pull request for review a couple times. What’s the workflow like? Any tips for reducing friction? I avoid checking out PRs because it’s much higher friction and because I trust CI to catch most bugs so the crappy code forge interfaces are good enough.

Personally, I would kill for a one click to step review interface in IntelliJ that synced comments back to the review.
The only naturally-occurring programs we are aware of are written in genetic code and the way in which they run is arguably not even Turing-complete. Recent papers have suggested ways to construct a Turing-complete system using DNA but it seems that such a system doesn't exist in the real world.

IMO erlang (and arguably even more, elixir) is "functional for the working programmer". It doesn't drown itself in academic abstractions, uses functional programming as a tool to guardrail you from mistakes (in the same way that C guards the programmer from making asm mistakes), with escape hatches that are battle-tested and justified based on decades of experience.

I would say the only other functional language that has the same bent is Julia, which is "functional for the working scientist". It makes different choices about where to expose state, understandable, since scientific computing has different tradeoffs from systems programming.

> “...anything that discourages customary amateur landlordism has to be a good thing.”

i’m not super-sympathetic to the plight of most landlords, but that’s too vindictive and counter-productive.

i’d rather have an escalating tax on number of units owned, with a sweet spot where landlords can make enough to be professional (have good tools and service providers), but discourage an overbearing imbalance of power over large numbers of other humans. i’d intuitively guess the sweet spot is probably in the range of 4-20 units, or 1 building with however many units, in high density zones.

Increase the housing supply in certain ways.

One of the things that drives me nuts about my town is (1) 90% of new, non-SFH development is rental, (2) new, non-SFH development is only in the upper price ranges, & (3) renovations are actively converting low range SFH stock into higher priced stock.

I understand this is good for the city (tax revenue+, especially via SFH up-valuing, given that school demand will be unchanged), but it paints a pretty grim "in 10 years" picture.

As a landlord myself (hobbyist), it's 100% unfair that someone is paying me wages they earn, because they don't have other good options.

People should, at minimum, be able to realistically earn equity in their own homes. Full stop.

Looking holistically at the entire chain: ownable, dense, affordable housing needs to be created.

To do so, cities should use their leverage to reprioritize builders' incentives: decrease the permitting (and anything else) burden for such stock, and mandate ratios of own:rent and affordable:unaffordable for projects (it'd be fine to create and trade credits!).

At college I had a very poor algebra professor, and my first grade was 15/100. I didn't want to fail any classes, and since I only had them in the evening, I went on to take algebra with other two professors during the day. Those two were different, but I wouldn't say better than the first. But with determination, it finally clicked.

Second exam was 85/100, the highest between C.S. and Automation Engineer (both lectured by that first professor). While I do agree that a good teacher can pave the way for a good student, I think most of the work you have to do it yourself, as if your life depend on it (mine did).

Everything was there, they didn't believe it I suppose. They had a very rigid expectation that didn't mesh with otherwise common e-commerce practices. They believed that of an item was shown on the results page, it had to be in stock. As if there was a pressure sensitive pad on the warehouse shelves where the item goes to determine if it shows up in the results or not.

We could have designed for this audience, but at the expense of more numerous, savvy users.

Believe me, we had many very smart people working there, we had a good handle on the situation. There's plenty I left out here to make a point regarding out of stock items and certain expectations regarding them.

I’m always very careful about the permission I give when using third party logins.
Timing, for one thing. For example, we have two sites in India; one of them works on Eastern time, the other on Indian time. The one that works Eastern time is a lot easier to deal with, as they are active when the rest of the US-based company is active. However, that means the Indian-based team is working nights, which makes it harder to retain good engineers.

The team that works on Indian time has good engineers, but with little overlap to the US-based management structure (and US-based engineers), there are sometimes significant delays in getting everyone on the same page.

That's one example, but there are others, such as cultural (i.e. expectations for US-based management may not be the same as non-US-based engineers) and "optics" (US-based customers like it better when US-based companies use US-based employees)
I thought this about Eagle's[1] project storage switching to XML; I figured it would allow us to store projects and libraries in git and easily branch / merge changes etc.

It was a nightmare. XML does not work well in git.[2] I even thought I could resolve some of the issues by sorting elements so they'd be in a consistent order, but none of the elements had guuids or anything to allow me to do that.

> People have been saying that for decades but we seem unable to achieve it.

The people who have been saying that for decades have been right. The problem isn't that it doesn't work, it's that we haven't done it.

> Meanwhile the proportion of people in rented accommodation has been increasing and the proportion of home owners has been falling.

Not meanwhile, because of. Demand has been growing faster than supply for decades.

> Actually I think there is something wrong with that. Personally I won't use my easy access to capital to deny the younger generation the ability to buy a house in the way I was able to.

But that's not what's doing that. The only way you could get someone to rent who otherwise would have been able to buy is by offering them a better deal. You can't just outbid them because without supply constraints, higher prices would result in more construction, and then that person would have a new house built instead of having to outbid you on the existing stock.

Meanwhile there are are still people who need somewhere to live and can't afford a down payment yet.
It goes out on the public. It's not a target because it is a library catalog. Nobody is going to man-in-the-middle looking up which shelf a book is on.
