I’ve found the ecosystem to be quite high quality but the editor tooling does fall short sometimes. Particularly the transition from Alchemist to an editor powered by the new language server protocol.

I can’t say it’s anything other than the fault of not enough spare time. The community is a bit smaller so there are not as many volunteers to build out the latest and greatest tooling for editor support.

Despite this, I’ve had a wonderful experience working within the elixir ecosystem and using it as a gateway to erlang. One of the things I had to acknowledge was my bias towards recent updates as a measure of quality. The ecosystem is so good that you’ll find packages years old and never updated. It simply does that it does and does it well.

I found overall great support in VS Code at the end of the day for Elixir. I wanted it to work well with emacs but it wasn’t consistently enjoyable.

VS Code works well enough for now between the satisfaction of shipping code and the satisfaction of a flick of the wrist for editor commands.

I called water a "mild" solvent because it's not so reactive as to instantly destroy everything in its path. But in terms of solubility water can act as a solvent for more molecules than anything else (if I remember high school chemistry correctly). This makes it a great medium for moving solutes around and facilitating interesting chemistry.
There are marginal benefits outside of HFT. Mostly, the spread in markets (difference between sell price and buy price) shrinks because of HFT.

Hence people who want to make financial transactions have less friction. In order to interpret this as a global positive, you need to see a more efficient financial system as better.

The story there is usually that a more efficient allocation of capital allows for the most growth, pulling more of the world out of poverty.

(I fully think HFT is good for financial world, less certain on the financial world being better for the wider world)
Is it possible that you are misinterpreting what Spolsky meant? I think he means that in the real world we interact with implementations of abstractions, and that the implementation always shines through and can bite you in the ass. This is what makes side-channel attacks possible, and (in Spolsky's view) unavoidable.
Yeah that sucks. Especially when you're designing service endpoints and your colleague insists upon reusing an existing endpoint instead of opening up a new one, because the two use cases looked the same when he squinted hard enough.

Now instead of /credit-card and /debit-card, which are independently testable, debuggable and changeable, you just have /card. Can't change the debit logic in /card because it will break credit. Can't change the credit logic in /card because it will break debit.
There is not much I can comment on editor support as I’ve had the experience of both successfully and unsuccessfully using various debuggers in editors. If you jump into IEX and use the built in introspection it’s some of the most advanced tooling I’ve ever seen in any language. Especially when doing OTP-level topology.
Keep Legacy Code or Rewrite? A Middle Way
I have found that in software that is wrong. If you want to succeed in software you need to do what is most popular which largely follows innate human behavior. Unlike many other professions there is no licensing, accredidation, or common ethic which means there is no standard baseline of competence.

This is visually explained when thinking about the difference between success and capability and then viewing that difference on a graph, such as a bell curve.

> The USAAF doctrine, along with pretty much everyone else in the 1930s...

I don't think anybody disputes what the pre-war bomber doctrine was. The criticism, IMHO, is that when TSHTF and reality showed that the doctrine wasn't worth the paper it was written on, they didn't change anything, just bit their tongues and pressed on, at enormous expense in manpower and materiel.

Not saying it would have been easy (or even realistically doable) to turn around industrial production, crew training, and doctrine in the middle of a major war. But still..

Also, not saying all strategic bombing was pointless and ineffective. Hitting the refineries in Ploesti, the aerial mining of the Danube were highly effective.

Joking aside, consider the following case. A function needs to print a series of reports and opens Print Setup. The user changes his mind and presses "Cancel". Now the function cannot continue and needs to stop the planned operations, undo what it has done so far, and return control to the user.

The internal mechanism you're going to use for this will be most likely the same mechanism you use to handle errors. But what you're handling is not an error, at least in the common usage of the word, because nothing erroneous is happening! Everything goes exactly as should and according to the general purpose of the application.

My point is that the current dichotomy of success and failure does not help us to solve the seemingly simple problem of errors.
U.K. was probably different, but in my mind both Authorize.net and PayPal were the established players in the US market for online credit card transactions before Stripe.

Authorize.net was (and still is) a "gateway" - you pick the merchant and use Authorize.net for the actual technical layer of processing a transaction - which was kind of a confusing concept, but there were plenty of merchants on authorize.net's marketplace that had much better rates than Stripe. I don't recall there being an onerous application process or the restrictions you mentioned, but it could be that I was shielded from that side of things.

Both Authorize.net and PayPal had pretty gross API's (and documentation) but they were pretty solid once you got them working. Obviously it depends on the nature of your business, but saving even 10 cents per transactions goes a long ways for many and quickly justifies a day or even a week of additional coder time. It wasn't that onerous of a task to implement one of the non-Stripe options.

Paypal of course was it's own beast with it's insanely draconian policies towards account holders, but I never had to deal with that (luckily).

This is what that reporter wrote about the tweets. It is 10% of the article that was published by word count and appeared in the middle of the article, not the end as the reporter claims. I'll leave it to people to draw their own conclusions:

A routine background check of King's social media revealed two racist jokes, one comparing black mothers to gorillas and another making light of black people killed in the holocaust. The joke tweets date back to 2012, when King was a 16-year-old high school student.

Register editor:Here’s how we reported on Carson King’s tweets

When asked about the tweets, King was remorseful and thanked the Register for pointing them out, saying they made him "sick." He has since deleted them.

"That’s not something that I’m proud of at all," he told the Register during the day Tuesday.

Tuesday evening, King spoke to local television stations about the now-deleted tweets.

"I am embarrassed and stunned to reflect on what I thought was funny when I was 16-year-old," he said in a statement posted by WHO-TV. "I want to sincerely apologize."

He also read the statement in a video posted by KCCI-TV.

Anheuser-Busch InBev, Busch Light's parent company, announced in a statement Tuesday night that they will "have no further association with [King]," though they will honor their agreement to match the funds for the children's hospital.

I absolutely agree. I had a terminal for most of my career and while it's an amazing piece of software (Reuters offer doesn't come close despite them often having more extensive news and data) and it's super convenient for contacting brokers and banks, I never felt people without it were left out. Especially nowadays, it's not uncommon for brokers to only give traders Bloomberg and Analysts other software to save cost. Doesn't impede their status. Quite the opposite, we always used to say that we'd happily give away terminal access for $25k extra a year. The reason that never happened is because having Bloomberg Access is in the companies' interests, not just the employees' personal interest.

> When you start talking distribution across nodes and hot loading code, that's where static typing starts to really bite you back because you don't have any way to enforce it across nodes or during a hot loading transition.

I agree, the status quo is that static typing often gives you more of a headache than profit. But I think that it actually could be the other way around, we just need to start thinking backwards-compatibility-first static typing, and it looks like an exciting area to explore.
>"While the high frequency (HF: 3 MHz to 30 MHz) and low frequency (LF: 30 kHz to 300 kHz) bands are perfectly capable of reaching across the globe thanks to ionospheric refraction, the high conductivity of seawater rapidly attenuates signals in these bands.

Dialing down the spectrum a bit, the very low frequency (VLF: 3 kHz to 30 kHz) band starts to exhibit decent penetration of seawater, down to a depth of perhaps 20 meters."

[...]

>"Going even further down the spectrum, signals in the extremely low frequency (ELF: 3 Hz to 30 Hz) band are capable of penetrating 120 meters of seawater"

Submarines aside, this is tremendously interesting how specific mediums (in this case, salt water) either act as transducers or attenuators for different radio frequencies.

Now, when a radio frequency is influenced by some form of matter (in this case, salt water, and at higher frequencies, attenuation), it might be because the matter and the radio frequency are somehow related.

In other words, perhaps future scientists will discover that the molecules of water are resonating at a frequency which is a much higher harmonic than the radio waves that they block. And/or perhaps their frequency is somehow related to the much lower frequency radio waves that they conduct.

See, it's sort of like any attenuator can act as a conductor (or vice versa), but the frequency or set of frequencies used makes the determination as to whether the medium in question is going to attenuate or conduct...

Compare this concept to resistors in electronics.

They resist standard DC... but what about AC at a certain frequency, or pulsed DC at a certain frequency?

The higher the frequency (to a certain point when space becomes conductive and thus dissipative with respect to the circuit), the more a resistor should become a conductor...

Also, observation: The reason why distance is lost (in seawater, but also other mediums) when higher frequencies are used, is typically because power is converted into frequency, which then, in the case of a standard radio wave, expands into space as a sphere, that is, it's a inverse-square-law power loss over space.

Compare radio waves to lasers; lasers do not lose power in accord with the inverse-square-law over space...
