Regardless of what is a subset of what, I certainly agree with the OP that OOP feels "anemic" in comparison to the dispatch-based paradigm of Julia.

I can't tell you how many times I've seen disparate packages written by different authors with no explicit effort towards interoperability "just work" together in Julia (e.g., [1]), something I have never seen to a comparable degree in any other language.

>Maybe some police officers are also just human and get angry when people hurl stones at them and spit at them. //

Yes, I've much sympathy with this. Police are human too - but just as if I get angry and lash out at someone in the street, without appropriate mitigations, I will be charged with assault - so too should police. That's rule of law in operation.

If you can stomach it then look on Reddit, the riot footage is illuminating IMO (of course remember the inherent selection and PoV biases).
Or you can also use the transient/volatile versions of data structures and functions, but I wouldn't know where to learn about these in depth. I've seen them being mentioned briefly in some official docs on clojure.org and seen them in implementations of basic functions, like `reduce` and whatnot, but I'm still not very confident using them... Also, I had no need for more performance than what I get with the immutable data structures.
No, "company A" makes more sense from the context.

It's a matter of personal mental space: some SW engineers like to build things that work and solve problems in the "outside world". For which you invariably need deep domain knowledge. Technology is a tool, means to an end. "Company A".

And others like to tinker with technology, big picture be damned: it's all about isolated performance benchmarks, tech stack, purity. "Company B".
Maybe this is how it is.

Most of us believe it's not how it should be.

And it's definitely not what the law says it is.

I like the analogy. I'm trying to get people in my organization to understand that it's not a bug when a feature works as specified in the app requirements. Either the requirement wasn't specified well or a change of circumstances requires it to work differently. In either case, it's a request for modification not a bug. Your analogy should help me explain the difference.

Wow, it's quite disheartening to read some of the comments here. Let's try something shall we:

- open up private browsing

- press F12 (or however you get the developer console on a mac) and go to the networking tab

- go to gmail.com say

- enter your gmail credentials

- look at the post request generated, and at the request tab, it will contain your password in plain text

So passwords don't get hashed on transit, this is why having HTTPS is so crucial, which is to prevent someone in the middle (say when you connect to an open Starbucks wifi) from sniffing out your unencrypted password. The password on the server side initially can be unencrypted before it gets hashed to be stored into the database. So in this instance, the password in the database is hashed, but there is a small period where the password is plain text in memory.

For a site called hacker news, it's really sad how little people here know about hacking.

I can't think of a country that would be even close.

Previous world powers came to pre-eminence when less of the world was known and later world powers are nuclear and haven't really directly invaded, fought or attacked like the British did.

This map brings it home more than most https://i.redd.it/75nqzhfp42r21.png and it only covers a single instance for many of those countries, the British (English first, rest of UK later) and the French spent most of a millennia beating each other up when they had no one else to fight - I mean Churchill gave orders to shoot French military if necessary months before the end of WW2 (between VE and VJ day) during the Levant Crisis.

How do they know a message is forwarded? The encryption is meant to make identical plaintexts encrypt to different ciphertexts, so obviously they must be leaking the forwarding status in unencrypted parts of the message. And why is an encrypted service trying to combat misinformation to start with - isn't that a contradiction in terms? These things raise difficult questions. You'd hope that once a service decides to go fully encrypted, its staff would believe that what kind of information going over it or how accurate that is, isn't any longer their concern.
I agree. What worries me is that the law seems to be ignored by authorities. Thus, we need to think about whether the authorities should have authority in the first place. They like to wave the banner of the constitution, but only when it serves their purpose and narrative.

I'm in favour of direct digital democracy, rather than powerful politicians who refuse to act.
I'm a doctor from a third word country and we make around ~$1.2k per month.

If I can make around 2-3k per month I would quit being a doctor and do that job any day.

And someone from a third world country I can totally relate and understand your situation. The politics and corruption has rotten the country to the core.

> managers cannot disagree with each other in front of other employees

Two important points on this:

a) The thing about being a manager is that people listen to you and try to do what you want. Your words set direction. The words also get amplified as they go down the hierarchy.

b) In a larger organization, doing the sub-optimal thing in unison leads to much better results then everyone doing their version of the optimal thing separately.

Put together this means that managers arguing about which approach should be taken publicly can be problematic because each of their teams may decide to implement their manager's prefer solution. Which then leads to wasted effort, multiple half-supported solutions, political bickering and so on.

I didn’t step around the question. Bezos is not making billions of dollars. If he took a salary of $0 he would still be the worlds wealthiest man, and the pay of a warehouse worker would not change appreciably even if 100% of his salary was allocated to increasing warehouse worker wages.

> engineers frequently assume the best-case scenario for their time estimates, while managers end up planning for the worst-case scenario

I (engineer) have experienced exactly the opposite. On Thursday I say "It will most likely take me a week; I cannot possibly have it done in less than three days; if X is true -- which I can't know yet -- it will be more like two weeks". And that becomes a commitment to have the code on master by next Wednesday.

Perhaps I've just been unfortunate, but most of the time when I have given qualified or worst-case scenarios, I have been pressed to assume the best, and that's what gets written down.
I'm curious as well. I'm not entirely sure what the difference is from a legal perspective, it would be interesting to hear from someone who knows.
CNBC has some analysis on what jobs were created at : https://www.cnbc.com/2020/06/05/record-job-gains-heres-where...

Looks like vast majority were in hospitality. Unfortunately, the warning sign is ~-500K in government sector. One of the major things that drew out the last recession was a significant decline in jobs for government employees month to month as tax revenue dried up.

While at this point any good news is welcome. The fact we are seeing an increase in hospitality, which typically are hourly with little/no benefits, for government jobs, which typically are more professional with good benefits, should be worrying. My non-expert analysis thinks it means the COVID-19 recession is becoming more systemic.

It's just that, I've had times where I'd have a strong urge to say otsukaresama to someone, and trip over myself for lack of any appropriate way to say it. Usually those would be cases where none of the translations listed here work; not "let's call it a day" because I'm still working, not "good effort" because it's clear in the context that I have no knowledge of their level of effort and anyway that sounds like what a coach would say after practice. It just sometimes doesn't have any good translation.

I'm not sure what you're saying. You're disputing the overall efficiency of a Tesla based on the heat-pump performance of a car that has not yet shipped?

> There's no need for theories. The engineering is well understood. The EV1 got there first.

No one is disputing that the EV1 had a heat-pump first or that heat-pumps are more efficient than resistive heaters.

You slighted Tesla for not having a heat-pump as if it were a serious fault. I am stating that the heating system isn't the most critical system in terms of overall vehicle efficiency.

Who said it needs to support vectorization natively? It's not what Go was created for so it's fine to exist as a library or assembly code.

Go has stricter goals than Java or .NET. So comparing them favorably is like saying a Corolla sucks because it lacks features present in a heavy duty truck.

Ask HN: Should I move from in-house SysAdmin into Development
I've been working as IT Support, then as a(mediocre-at-best) Sysadmin for about five years, with a few years of Tier 1 Help Desk before that.

Currently, my job pays well enough ($85k in rural PA, US) But I don't have much growth potential where I'm at, and am looking to advance my career.

Would it be a worthwhile endeavor for me to build my development skill on the side, in the hopes of moving into the developer job market, or should I look for more advanced work in the SysAdmin realm?

Thanks in advance.

There may be a similar legibility point about severity levels. Some boss somewhere has to put the set of tasks in priority order for the development team, and once it's in that order, severity levels are useless for the developers. But they might be useful as a way for the person submitting the issue to communicate something to the boss who does the ordering.

Say there's a billing system. One of the accounts receivable clerks notices that due dates aren't properly adjusted for public holidays. As a developer, do you know how big a deal that is? Probably not. Doesn't sound like a big deal. But maybe it means we're imposing penalty charges on customers where we shouldn't be, and that's a huge legal and reputational risk. Or maybe it really isn't a big deal! The boss will need to have a conversation with the clerk to learn all this, but maybe having a severity field is an ice-breaker for that conversation.
I mostly agree with your post but:

> The brain has no such constraint. It is analog, and therefore infinite in State

Not necessarily infinite. A lot of people believe that nothing in the world is truly infinite (just very large/small). Infinite quantities in mathematics are just approximations that simplify calculations.
In that example, Julia also has someone who's spent many many hours writing and re-writing those few tiny programs to tune performance.

Down that rabbit hole a bit further:

I note a (c) 2007 on the DVD's label image on the website, which probably explains the video quality.

Given that there are at least ~25 other instructional DVDs included in various sets for sale, I get the impression that these videos are essentially online for free because they're not really useful without either having purchased the coursework or being enough of an expert that you don't need the coursework anyways. Still neat, though.

In my experience, no, I am not exaggerating. In my run-ins with police, they had no clear suspect, so everyone was a suspect. In one case, they questioned me, and had me go through a polygraph test. They didn't inform me of my rights to an attorney, because I was not formally arrested. They also did all of this without legal representation or parents (I was 16). They did it just to be able to tell me that I failed, and that I should confess now and they would go easy on me. For a crime I didn't commit. They even lied about what I said at the scene of the crime to say that I contradicted myself, or the responding officer wrote it down wrong.

I do not believe it is a good idea to speak to police unless they have a clear suspect, motive, evidence, and other indicators they are not fishing for you to be the suspect.

I firmly, firmly, firmly believe short-term hassle and a lawyer's bill are much better than the long-term ramifications of an arrest, even if you are not convicted ultimately.

Yep. And let's not forget that the www was invented by an Englishman in Geneva.

So how come we seem to be losing all the battles in the end? I agree that there's geopolitical explanations too: another commenter mentioned that the petro-dollar system grant the US with a much lower cost of money- and it's not a small thing. If I understand it correctly, the US acts as the world's bank: prints money that everybody is forced to use and emits in exchange debt titles that everybody wants to buy. That's a huge advantage.

But let's not forget that in the US rules are simpler and companies often have a relative freedom to break them if the public finds it useful; that they can easily downsize and fire underperforming people in case of need; that professionalism and expertise are highly valued; that public administrations are open and welcome new initiatives (imagine in the EU a small private company like SpaceX was at the beginning getting multi-billion contracts from ESA...).

While in France you have judges ordering (shamelessly, in my view) that Google both has to do a certain job and pay for the privilege of doing it.
The $1.2B doesn't sound right. It's probably an overestimate by a factor of 100 or 1000.

Let's see:

"Investigators say each skimmer captured on average 1,000 cards per month, siphoning about $200 from individual victim accounts. This allowed the crime gang to steal approximately $20 million monthly."

To begin with: $200 x 1000 = $200,000 not $20 million.

But wait, maybe they use a card for more than a month, maybe they buy $200/month for several months. That's very unlikely. All credit card companies have very sophisticated fraud detection algorithms, and probably most people on HN can recount instances when they received a text or email from their card company about some suspicious activity. Fraudulent activity on a card to go undetected for multiple purchases, going over a period of months, that's virtually impossible.

Second: how does this square with the official statistics? The FTC publishes an annual report about consumer losses due to various types of fraud (such as credit card, identity theft, phishing, etc). The grand total for all types of such fraud was $1.9B for 2019 [1]. This counts everything, not only card skimming. Now, one can say this happened in Mexico, not in the US, but then the numbers look even more suspicious.

Third: the way this scam works is that the skimmers collect card information then pass that along. They sell lists of such cards on the black market. Some other people buy such cards and try to make fraudulent purchases. Some of the purchases will be rejected, but some will go through. The original skimmers are not involved in this part of the crime, and have no idea how much stuff was eventually bought with the cards they "sourced". So when they sell the lists on the black market, they won't get anywhere near $200 per card. I have never seen any numbers, but it wouldn't surprise me if they can't get more than $2-$5 per card.

All in all, it's likely that these guys pocketed at most a six-digit amount, and created total losses of the order of millions of dollars, but nothing withing shooting distance of $1B.
