I would rather have no dangerous criminals on the street instead of 200. But more than that, I would rather give everyone an equal opportunity. Being rich (or, having rich friends/family) and making bail is literally a direct contributor to racism.

Nothing like taking "the poor" off the streets and then keeping them in jail because they don't have family who, even if they have money in the first place, can take time off work to go down to the courthouse and to deliver a bail.
Wouldn't it be similar to the PowerPC -> Intel transition or is there something that makes this more complicated? That one worked pretty well with the Rosetta emulation layer.
> they are far more likely than the average person to be criminals

Or just have the wrong skin complexion. Getting arrested doesn't increase one's chances of being a criminal, that's not how reality or statistics work. It just increases their chance of being in jail by about 100% but they still have very much the same chances of being a criminal as they did right before being arrested.
Does minio have serverless functions?
That's because almost all transcendentals are not computable or nameable, whereas all algebraics are. So when you limit to the space of nameable computable numbers you get a different statistical intuition.
As I expand lower down: it certainly does happen, and on your example did.

But I suspect it happens less often due to union matters than the oft regaled stories suggest, possibly less overall too.

Rather than just looking at the home page for Crux (which has a lot of impressive tech jargon), I recommend that you watch the related video, “Temporal Databases for Streaming Architectures”, on YouTube which I found did a much better job of explaining things.

I read a quote the other day where somebody suggested that the Clojure ecosystem feels like it’s filled with a bunch of tools from the year 3000, and I think that Crux is a good example of that. It looks very cool.

Minneapolis approves plan to create 'community' alternative to police department
I find that I am the same as I was 10-15 years ago. But society is boxing me in with their expectations and with their carrots and sticks makes me act differently.

I would run down the street as a kid. If I did that today, it would look weird.

I would be sort of silly and upbeat about a lot of things. But as you get older, people expect you to talk slower and more seriously.

And so on. A lot of it has to do with societal pressure and putting you in boxes by sex and age.

Take this experiment... go somewhere no one knows your age and hang out with much younger people for like a week. See how your health is afterwards.

I saw the title to this post and immediately thought of these two things. I clicked on the comments, and you've already named them. What great writers!
This article is describing a very obviously risky investment as some sort of "dastardly" plot. It describes the stock as "potentially worthless", and while I would agree this is a bad investment, all stock is 'potentially worthless', that's why investors get a risk premium (versus low-risk treasuries).

This post seems like a lot of fluff and pointless outrage.
I provided an answer to your question. I did not claim those are examples of minority race being racist.

Such examples can be found as well, if we change the target group to be a different race. Nazi Germany (whose population became oppressed minority in Europe after being defeated in WW I) was becoming more racist towards most of the European nations south and east of them (majority) - including Slavic nations, Romas and others. More recent example, after WW II, Israeli settlers (most of which are Jews, an historically oppressed minority) became racist towards Palestinians (majority).

> Everyone who is outraged at, angry with, or otherwise against the police violence against black people is an SJW.

That's another misunderstanding of terms on your part. Almost everybody who saw that video and other police transgressions since then was disgusted by those policemen actions and are against such police brutality. That includes many racists, bigots, right-wingers, libertarians, traditional left, progressives and others not so easily categorizable political agents.

That does not make them SJW's. "Social Justice Warrior" now has a very specific pejorative and derogative meaning: a vocal activist pushing and fighting for ideology of political correctness, for positive discrimination, favouritism of people of minority groups, limiting freedom of expression by policing words and inventing and enforcing new words, and generally using any means available, including racist or bigoted or factually incorrect or logically flawed arguments about race, power, history or biology. They are very attention-seeking and uppity. They care more about winning rhetorical arguments and political battles than about being right and fair.

People who really care about society and people of all races/groups having their fair part in society are very different from that. They do not try to annoy, divide or cancel people of other groups, they do not push ideology, instead they try to work with those people towards common goals.

I have developed an application to help localization of the application.
You can translate the language of the application into up to 100 languages.

Trivially so, but are they even interesting?

Such well-specific label territories are often artificial. Your Facebook social graph is a poor proxy for your actual IRL social network (or whose opinions you interact with the most, etc)

Big bureaucratic organizations (or other less responsive intelligences) often try to force the territory to conform to the map, for convenience of steering, but it seems like there is a significant map/territory mismatch in the generally interesting/important cases.
It's really not that crazy of a concept, and it was attempted by Solon:

Whether fact or ficion, this discussion has been going on a long time.
This is really quite common thinking in D.

I was writing a library and a contributor popped out of nowhere. He didn't knew D. The first patch it suggested was about parsing some JSON at compile-time.

It turned out std.json the stdlib parser was able to parse at compile-time in CTFE context. So, the contributor parsed JSON at compile-time without his knowledge, without really knowing D, and the fact it worked was accidental (since the parser was n't specially designed to do that, but could).
Apple should wind down their ads system (iAd) entirely. Advertisements are antithetical to what Apple stands for - privacy, premium experience, doing the right thing for users. They should lower their cut to 10% (not to 20, as the article states) and start offering curated experience bundles like they do with AppleTV.

Hiding awaits would be against the zen. As you explained, it's a behaviour difference that might matter. The await forces you to think about it, and that's safer.

But the difference between asyncio.run(red(x)) and blue(x)... isn't. There's no difference which matters. They are just different implementations of the same behaviour.

If red and blue are both the same DB query, with the only difference being red is async-style and blue sync-style, these two lines have exactly the same program behaviour:

result = asyncio.run(red(x))

and

result = blue(x)

So the asyncio.run is just cognitive fog. It forces you to think about the type difference, but doesn't add any safety.

It's almost the opposite of Python's usual duck-typing parsimony, which normally allows equivalent things to be used in place of each other without ceremony.
It has no real world implication because it relies on infinitely detailed objects.
No real world approximation will shares its properties.

>Basically sex is following the pattern of wealth. Men as a group aren't having less sex, instead there's a winner take all effect where a small number of men are having a lot of sex with a lot of women while a large number of men are having little to no sex.

Might I offer an observation? As women have become the greater number of degree achievers and have entered the work force in greater numbers, combined with the availability of birth control, they simply have greater agency than in the past and thus can be ever more selective. So this statement on wealth cuts both ways for men and women.

Secondly, ask any single female friend about their dating experiences. It's very clear there are many men who really have no idea how to interact with women in the context of a health, adult relationship.
I'm sick of this. I'm so, so sick of this. I swear every time this happens, I think "oh, there is no app by that name" and then I have to double check make sure I really used the right search term and that the result is actually a first party app.

If I were searching for a genre such as "podcast" or "camera" app, I understand seeing paid ads. But when I search for a specific name, I see absolutely no reason whatsoever there should be an ad above my results.

There has to be a better way.
I mean, you can earn enough to retire in 10y, yes. But presumably you mean 'can I expect gainful employment for 30 years without a promotion into management'.

Probably? There's a number of elder folks at work here in engineer roles, and plenty of children in management roles. Seems fine?
Interesting points. I disagree with one of the points that argues Apple should favor the “real apps,” which I assume refer to native iOS apps. Users don’t care what stack developers use as long as the product does its job and developers for sure want to reach as many users as possible regardless of what platform they are on. Also, companies with more resources will be better positioned than indie developers to make native apps for multiple platforms, so it wouldn’t benefit the author too. So who really benefits from this?
I think this actually lines up with what the various stats being posted say though. Once people hit their 30s, the situation tends to reverse. Men tend to have more solid careers by their 30s and are more attractive because they are more stable, women realize they are on a timer if they want to even consider having a child.

One nit to pick, Slack on iOS is apparently fully native: https://twitter.com/SlackHQ/status/931599784137363459

I think this shows, in my opinion, how little native vs. web/electron actually matters to overall quality. You can generally make a smooth, fast, bug-free app on any platform. Or not...

I used to use the Android version and I was never quite sure whether it was native or not. I couldn't think of a way to tell.
I think that's essentially what online training is these days: a cheaper way to get access to a fitness 'sherpa' to guide you. Someone who lives and breathes this stuff to save you a lot of time and effort. Most of the real, practical, and current knowledge right now is spread across a variety of $1000 courses for personal trainers.

I'm in the process of building the largest online fitness database of its kind to democratize a lot of this information. I'm not sure what sort of business model I will pursue yet. But I want to collaborate with likeminded people and make the foundational information open to the public.

> In the cooking example, each request gets a single cook. If that cook is able to do things asynchronously, he will finish a single meal faster.

There is a bit of nuance here, in that the async-chef would make any individual meal slower than a sync-chef, once the number of outstanding requests is large. The sync-chef would indeed have overall higher wait times, but each meal would process just as fast as normal (eg. more like a checkout line at a grocery store).

I prefer the grocery store checkout line metaphor for this reason. If a single clerk was "async" and checking out multiple people at once, all the people in a line would have an average wait time of roughly the same for a small line size. A "sync" clerk would have a longer line with people overall waiting longer, but each individual checkout would take the same amount of time once the customer managed to reached the clerk.

This is pertinent when considering the resources utilized during the job. If an sync clerk only ever holds a single database connection, while an async clerk holds one for every customer they try to check out at the same time, the sync clerk will be far more friendly to the database (but less friendly to the customers, when there aren't too many customers at once).

It would seem there may be a lack of appreciation for how powerful a modern x86 CPU actually is. Even when you apply every side-channel mitigation in the book, these processors are incredibly powerful when used appropriately. Somehow x86 is being branded as this inferior compute facility, always at odds with the GPU/ARM/et.al., and I feel it mostly boils down to shitty software engineering more than anything else.

I believe a lot of this can be attributed to rampant, unmitigated abuse of the NUMA architecture exposed by the x86 stack, as well as a neglect for the parallelism offered by CPUs of the last 3-4 generations. Most developers are not following principles which align with what the hardware can actually do, rather, they are following principles which align with what academia/cult-wisdom says you should do. These two worlds are vastly at odds when it comes to keeping your L1/2/3 caches as hot as possible and keeping all of those cores busy with useful work.

For example, most software engineers would tell you that busy waiting is a horrible practice, but when you step back and pay attention to the hardware reality, you have 32+ threads to burn, why not put your ultra-high-performance timer as a high-priority process on one of those threads and let it check trigger conditions in a tight loop? You can get timing errors measured in 10s of nanoseconds with this approach, and it's dead simple. Now you only have 31 threads remaining. 30 if you really want to make sure that timer runs smooth. Running at 3+ ghz, that one thread could service an incredible number of events per second. There are new ways to think about how we build things given newer hardware capabilities.

I feel a lot of the high-performance software revolution is going to come out of some ideas that have been floating around in fintech. Frameworks like the LMAX Disruptor (and the ideology behind it) can serve as the foundation for a UI framework capable of transacting tens of millions of aggregate user events per second and with peak latencies measured in microseconds. I have personally started to dabble in this area, and the results after just a few weekends have been very encouraging. You would be surprised what even high level languages (Java/C#) are capable of when their use is well-aligned with the hardware.
Yup at one point, it was almost the only option, for any type of shopping.

You probably need to be more specific about your end goal. Is it to lift a particular amount, run a marathon, climb a certain route etc? There are usually specific trainers for certain skills, just like in video games :) If I wanted to get better at bouldering, I'd book a 1 on 1 at my climbing wall, not a generic trainer at the local gym (but maybe I would after advice from the climbing coach).

For generic "get fit" goals, stretch every day and some amount of cardio/resistance training three times a week is hard to get wrong. The important thing is to read your body and don't push your luck. Also, to stop when you lose good form.

There is a lot of overwhelming information, but a lot of it is conflicting and anecdotal. You yourself point out - should you go for growth? 5 days on? 7 days on?? You can find information online to support pretty much any theory you like (particularly about training frequency).
So, human beings are basically apes, right?
And to go above that? Grad school and Phd or just very specialized niche knowledge or moving into finance/quant jobs?
With distributed and multicore being the path forward with the end of Moores law, your work has been instrumental in helping open source distributed systems improve.

Since distributed systems are so difficult and complicated, it enables salespeople and zealots to both deny issues and overstate capability.

I think you are overestimating the change. IMO the OS changes things a lot more than the processor architecture.

Almost nobody (except imgix and a few others) run macos on a prod server, yet many devs run macos. For example: when they run stuff via docker they run it via a VM (whether they know it or not).

Any dev (again, except imgix and a few others) that actually cares about server performance is already not running their benchmarks/perftests/tests on a mac, so that should not make a difference.

>Lower the cut you take from 30% to 20%

I agree with this. I think there are probably a lot of app ideas where the margin is small enough that 30% probably prevents them from even being started.

Also fix app review. It's so arbitrary, it's like playing a game of darts.

PayPal's customer service is atrocious, especially if one falls between the gaps and gets asked to do some weird KYC.

Some months ago, they asked me to provide charity information for my personal account, and subsequently limited my receiving/sending privileges.

Phone calls to them trying to sort this out have always ended up at some call centre in the Philippines, where the agents can only tell their users that the account limitation is "for their safety".

That account of mine is still limited.

They've also limited the personal account of a friend of mine (who was interestingly enough ex-PayPal) before, also asking for charity information.
