The "Aurora Serverless" branding also applies to Aurora PG 10.7 edition, which was made publicly available in July last year, so I'm not quite sure what 'no update' you are talking about.
I don't know if I am alone or not but I indeed love testing and documentation along with coding. Testing itself is very challenging. Never understood why QA folks are underrated. While for me documentation is like a sharing my cool stuff.
OTOH shared CUPS printers are now installable with 2 clicks and without entering the CUPS URL. I have an old HP printer which doesn't work with Windows itself anymore, but works fine if connected to my Linux workstation.

This is already the case with the name of your function. And named arguments are basically just an extension of the name of your function.
Yes, historic reasons are relevant. However it drives some alignment. Among other things for new members chapter 19 of the enlargement negotions covers different aspects. Thus in order to join some aspects have to be changed in different countries and U.S. won't be able to join (of course U.S. is failing the initial test if being an "European" country in first place)

And yes, there is quite some freedom, as British didn't want to replace the NHS, while Germany wants to keep their complex system, with private and public insurances and the assistance for state servants and all that ...
Diamonds can wait forever too.

I wonder if the excess supply of diamonds would lower the price, since they're such a valuable and rare commodity.
Having white skin doesn't make false whatever Pollock says. Similarly, having brown skin doesn't make true whatever a brown person says.

I think other people gave you some ideas already.

I'd like to portray another question for you to consider: Do you think being able to have this policy is an inherently privileged position? For the record, I don't disagree with you. I have the same one.

I don't want to assume anything about you, so I'll speak about myself: I'm a het cis white male. I'm well-educated and well paid. Politics basically don't affect me unless it's taxes (which is why our industry ends up leaning so heavily libertarian." I am able to CHOOSE when to discuss political/social issues because i am able to CHOOSE when they affect me.

This is not the case for many others, including I bet your coworkers. If you are a woman, non-hetero, non-cis, or a racial minority, you don't get to choose whether politics/society affects your life - it is automatic. There is no clean separation for a lot of people between work and life and it spills over, and even if they intend to not bring it up, it sometimes will.

I say all this not to get you to change your policy, but to keep in mind why others may not be able to have the same one. What will naturally follow from that, is that people invariably look for allies. So if someone asks you to discuss a subject, one that violates your policy, you should really consider whether your policy actually makes sense in the world, or if it only helps you while actively harming those around you.

So if you're an ally, you should consider flexing your policy, and trying to help.

And if you're not, well...then your silence IS complicit, and you shouldn't be surprised if it affects your career accordingly.
It's not a perfect analogy; gold, silver, and platinum can all be melted, reconstituted, combined, and separated without being damaged. Diamonds are more unique than that.

They could be more commodified than they are, but they can never achieve the commodification of a metal or a simple gas like e.g. nitrogen.

Totally agreed that this is the vaunted reuse that we were desperately trying to achieve in the 80s and 90s. Did we ever achieve it! And yes, this is a Good Thing™, and it really irks me when people claim we have the same "software crisis" we had in the 80s or 90s, or even since 1968. I just want to shake them an go "open your eyes, look around"

Yes, we have problems with the state of the art, but these are new problems that are due to our past successes.
The diamond market is a farce, there's no scarcity, they have almost no real use and sinthetic diamonds are a thing for ages, the only reason it didn't plummet is because the only artificial diamond manufacturer reached an agreement with the sellers to mark them as fake

A frog in a pond is content catching flies and avoiding being eaten, perhaps laying eggs and procreating.

Similarly among humans, some live lives not that different from a frog, when they reach the limit they may pursue progress - wealth, education or fame. Some like yourself who value knowledge for the sake of it like mathematics or physics pursue that.

However, there are people who either reach the limitation of knowledge and logic. For some this longing comes naturally at a young age, and for others when they have lived through much of their lives and others when they meet extraordinary people or experiences.

You do not need it, it is not a race. The self or aathman takes a new identity/body in the next cycle of life.
Your assistant would also probably help you with work-life balance stuff (but don’t ask him to clean your golf clubs).

If I had a full-time assistant... let’s see... travel arrangements (would save me a couple days per quarter), Jira and related bookkeeping, tracking down people who know stuff I need to learn, scheduling social events, comparison shopping for cars/schools/gyms, reading poorly written internal docs and summarizing them coherently, organizing my meeting notes, and even just reminding me what I’m supposed to be thinking about.

I once worked in a place where the executive assistant was available to help anyone on the team, with the manager having priority of course. The most I ever dared ask for was flight bookings because she seemed really busy and I was young and shy, but I bet the senior people had her doing random stuff.
I was recently reading into Total Functional Programming [1] and found it surprising that it seems possible to reason about/model Turing Machines in languages which guarantee a program's termination [2]. I've barely scratched the surface, but I feel like it's a fun combination of engineering and theoretical/philosophical issues. I'd super appreciate and fellow HNers suggestions for related resources or things to read.

>If you say IO is the bottleneck, then you're claiming there is no significant difference between python and node. That's what a bottleneck means.

This is my claim that this SHOULD be what's happening under the obvious logic that tasks handled in parallel to IO should be faster then tasks handled sequentially and under the assumption that IO takes up way more time then local processing.

Like I said the fact that this is NOT happening within the python ecosystem and assuming the axioms above are true, then this indicates a flaw that is python specific.

>The reason the interpreter matters is because the latency picture of async is very linear:

I would say it shouldn't matter if done properly because the local latency picture should be a fraction of the time when compared to round trip travel time and database processing.

>Python is likely slow because it implements the event loop in python

Yeah, we're in agreement. I said it was a python specific problem.

If you take a single task in this benchmark for python. And the interpreter spends more time processing the task locally then the total Round trip travel time and database processing time... Then this means the database is faster than python. If database calls are faster then python then this is a python specific issue.
You made your point very clear. Regretfully, I can not agree with your fervent enthusiasm for the law of the land in this case that this is an obvious and open-and-shut case of illegal conduct that one might very much want it to appear. This is based on the assessments of experts such as the Copyright Office on the case and the nuances reflected in it.

As I said, we'll have to wait and see. I do look forward to it. In the mean time these are the tiny actions I'll be taking in support of IA (1) I double my donations to the IA and match donations of any friends and acquaintances, (2) the four conglomerate publishers are boycotted until further notice.

And remember, the Internet always finds a way, if its short history has taught us anything.
And if you look at that it analogy of a tree, what is a "Master branch". Also what is a "Main branch". It's trunk. Of course then it would be called "The trunk branch", which sounds silly too me, and trunk has a couple sexual slangs tied to it. I read on person naming theirs 'prd', 'uat', and 'dev'. Less typing and describes what the branch is for.
An ounce of diamonds doesn't funge like an ounce of gold. Each diamond has different purity and color characteristics.

Diamond traders do exist but due to the characteristics of individual diamonds, they're more like bond traders. Bluenile.com is a good example of a retail diamond exchange.

Instead of manipulating the URL it would replace it, and instead of each site doing it their way it would be handled by the browser in the browser UI. Sites can implement their own back button too, doesn't mean that's where it belongs.

Think about how Powershell use objects instead of text to chain together commands. The address isn't just text, it's structured data, why not treat it as such and make it more useful?

Not that I really care, but the original GitHub issue[1] has multiple researchers "kicking up a fuss", why are you just reducing their opinion to "random opinionated commentators"?

We have solved poverty, work ethics problems in IT, we have great working culture, great salaries, we put demands and employers just throw money and resources at us.

Happy to have helped. It was actually quite an ordeal when I first ran into this.

I was printing something that I had actually inverted the colors on (a screenshot from Android of my WiFi QR code, where I use the dark theme on the phone, so I inverted it before printing), so I thought that somehow Photoshop had told the printer "this image is inverted, print the original instead" and I spent a while in the Photoshop options looking for some wacky setting that would control that.

Tried printing from Windows Photo Viewer with the same inverted result, despite seeing an image with a white background. Eventually I printed a test page from Notepad and started getting on the right track, but for a while I genuinely thought some color-inversion-but-only-for-display property had become embedded in the image file :)

The way Swift does them is the least awkward and most robust I have seen in any language.

> As an example, the colon and the whitespace are sufficient to separate parameters. So is the comma. So we have...both?

Designing a language around what the minimum requirements of a parser is will not get you a good language. Human language is massively redundant, because humans find it more easy to communicate when there is redundancy. Computer code is also communication aimed at humans, and a bit of redundancy does not hurt there, and can often help.

> There is also the issue that, please correct me if I got this wrong, the label that's in the signature becomes the name of the parameter inside the function.

This is incorrect. You can optionally specify both an internal and external name for any argument. Unlabelled arguments are just a special case of this syntax, where you say "external name does not exist, internal name is this".
All that is well and good, but RETURNING is a Postgres feature, not part of the SQL standard. I don't think a standard SQL textbook (especially one targeting something like MySQL/Sqlite) would have taught the author about it.

How did we get from "change one word, find/replace basically" to an entire predatory policy by Microsoft?

If anything, this proves that it is possible over time. The issue with EEE was not the change itself but the power Microsoft gained by enforcing examples itself. Where's the power issue in making a change that is a positive for the world without negatives once past the transitional issue?

Again, my point here is that this just feel like people put more energy into fighting it than the change costs, and I think often that speaks more to people marginalizing the underlying issue than caring about the problems with the change itself.

If you're ditching your car and trying to be more environmentally friendly then car rentals makes sense - have for us in the past at least. Car rental is cheaper for 2 or more people than taking the train; so rental is really useful for longer journeys (and you don't have to do taxi/bus transfers from the train station).

Business demand for rental vehicles doesn't seem to be falling?

Slightly ambiguous because I think the GP actually meant something like "enforcement may decline (to penalize or press charges)" which is definitely true and likely the case if 90% of these are paperwork errors.

There are definitely paperwork errors I can imagine, but it's difficult to imagine it being as simple a mistake as not checking the box that says "you have a job". More likely would be a grant office not being fully aware of a professors' funding sources or miscategorizing their funding in such a way that the grant office person helping with the paperwork marked it wrong and the professor didn't check carefully.

That I would consider to be an "honest mistake" that gets corrected by moving money around and a strongly worried letter.

Other stories I've heard go as far as two married professors who took their grant money and used it instead to move to an island resort for three months or something like that and didn't actually do the project at all. That was definitely a crime, but largely only because it involved the federal government. If they'd gotten a grant from a private company and didn't do what they promised it would likely be a civil lawsuit unless it rose to the level of actual illegal fraud.
Aurora Serverless is an absolute nightmare to use from the perspective of Lambda. It’s easy to flood the database with Lambda connections and the database layer doesn’t scale automatically as described. So the result is that Aurora Serverless returns max connections errors.

The RDS Proxy isn’t GA yet and has huge disclaimers on using it in production.

The only alternative is to use the RDS Data API which requires sending raw SQL queries over HTTP.

If you’re using an ORM getting the actual bound SQL query from the database request can be a bear.

And to make matters worse the RDS Data API doesn’t return JSON results with the tables column names. It puts the column names in a separate key that requires developers to map to generic column names using the index of the value.

AWS should be embarrassed about Aurora Serverless. No question in my mind.
Yes it does. Quantum is not new from scratch, it's (excellent) improvement and reorganization of largely the same code base. Some code and components are new, but that's rare all in all.

These are fun semantics... if you can't liquidate your inventory for a substantial fraction of its "price" then I'd say that it simply doesn't have the value you've priced it at.

It makes you feel intensely vulnerable and uncomfortable. Its one of the reasons I just dont look for anything anymore.
Tabs and windows are a very convenient UI for maintaining state. Browsers aren't used just to complete one "task" at a time.

- Build rapport with them.
- Shake their hands.
- Talk to them with respect.
