No, there are bad programming languages. It's just that it's all of them. We have yet to develop a language which lets you tell the computer what you want it to do and have the computer do it in an efficient manner without having to write test suites (which have bugs) and do manual testing (which misses things) and static analysis (which is imperfect) and do performance testing (which is hard and expensive and may or may not be able to replicate the actual performance conditions your software will experience in the real world). But this is not to say that some languages are not worse than others, because they are.

An interesting idea!

I tried refreshing the README.md expecting to see other testimonials, and I'm seeing the same one every time (from tinyCoder32 on Apr 6). I noticed the suggestion of adding noCache=true to the image path (which I presume means "?noCache=true"), but am still seeing the same testimonial. I also tried force refreshing my browser cache.

A few suggestions:

- A default README example without caching (and with multiple testimonials) would be a better demo of what your project can be used for.

- Consider adding a JS embed option with links to the original GitHub comments for context. The demo image with "It worked, thank you so much for the help." would be a more compelling testimonial if I could see the original discussion to understand who is being thanked and what they actually did.

Why are they called _social_ networks then ?
Nah, more like "I won't eat chocolate that they specifically produced at such a low quality that it's financially viable to give it away for free."
That's a fair point. Having said that, it's also interesting to realize that most distributed systems (which are concurrent by their very nature) don't have that luxury. Our micro-services interact with databases, event queues, blob stores etc and each of those external entities is shared mutable state. Furthermore, services can crash at any time and can't start from a clean slate (unlike in-process concurrency which doesn't have to worry about that). My meta-point is that while I agree with your sentiment, the reality of modern day services is that you are _forced_ to reckon with mutable complexity when designing distributed concurrent services (and more and more of us are doing that with the shift to micro-services in the industry)
I think someone was looking for that. You don't have a copy of the other languages do you? Red is online, but blue and yellow are not.

iTunes, LastPass, Dashlane, Yahoo, Microsoft other Gmail accounts definitely require verification.

Perhaps the author collected those accounts 12 years ago when it hasn't been the case? Or does he click on the verification links?
EventMachine has been losing steam for awhile now, which is why I brought up Async as the new hotness. I don't think it is fair to classify async-http as "just a new client library". As of now, in the ruby ecosystem, the Async framework is the only player in town. From my perspective, it still looks pretty much unproven, but perhaps we just live inside different bubbles.

It kinda feel like we are talking past each other here. I would just like to clarify that I inherited all these different ruby apps, and I don't have the magical ability to go back in time and say "Hey, perhaps we should use an async framework from the beginning" or "Dude, enough with the monkey-patching". And even if I do, those could be bad advice, as the ruby apps are making money in production.

Anyway, thanks for the suggestion to share metrics across processes. That will definitely help with the circuit breaker decision making in my case.

Why didn't you, at least, put in Ada's numeric type system into D? You would've had a massive edge over C++ right there.
LFS works best on Unbuntu/Debian I find.

The biggest issue with doing it is the time it takes. Some of the compiling can take ages, and you tend to forget you are waiting for it, and get busy with something else, only to come back 3 days later with no idea what stage you got to!

My advice is to use the fastest machine you have as the host for the LFS build process - it'll take a lot of the pain away.
Awesome, thanks! I've spent quite a bit of time trying to make sure that websites are speedy, so it's great to hear that you like the performance. :) Hopefully you will try it and let me know if you have any questions!
Can we stop with the don't have children advice. It's one step away from telling people to go kill themselves. People can choose to have children or not but it is not constructive to tell people to have or not have children. For most of us not having children will render saving the planet (as in making it habitable for humans) a meaningless exercise.
Thank you for posting that. Especially interesting in light of Walter Bright's comment(s) in this thread.

I didn't quite understand why someone who wrote a c++ compiler would think Ada was insurmountable - this adds some context.

In my nativité I'd have guessed that writing an Ada compiler was on par with Pascal (but with more types and stuff). This is probably the same (wrong) reasoning by which Mr Bright tricked himself into writing a c++ compiler ;)

Ed: note, I was introduced to Object Pascal - not plain Pascal - so that's the comparison I'm alluding to.
Wonderful article. Made me realize that I had this TSR program running in my brain.

Right, yes. I got confused by your example, because the example is definitely about pre- vs post-increment. My point about idioms still stands, though.

Actually, (* stack)-- evaluates to 23, but changes *stack to 22 :)
It's pretty gross how this comment just assumes that homeless people shouldn't count as residents of a city, and that the best solution to homelessness is to withhold services and force them out.

[1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24359220

Looking at the normative language of the early DP v1.1a § 3.3 Hot Plug/Unplug Detect Circuitry:

> The HPD signal is asserted by the DisplayPort Sink whenever the Sink is connected to either its main power supply or “trickle” power. HPD signal specification is shown in Table 3-2.

To be sure, HPD assertion on "trickle" power is the monitor's requirement.

Looking closer at Table 3-2 (empty Nom col removed, Comments col separated for clarity):

| Parameter | Min | Max | Units | Comments |
| ---------------------------------- | ---- | --- | ----- | -------- |
| HPD Voltage | 2.25 | 3.6 | Volt | (a) |
| Hot Plug Detection Threshold | 2.0 | | Volt | (b) |
| Hot Unplug Detection Threshold | 0.8 | | Volt | (b) |
| HPD source termination | 100 | | kΩ | (c) |
| HPD sink termination | 100 | | kΩ | (d) |
| IRQ HPD Pulse Width Driven by Sink | 0.5 | 1.0 | ms | (e) |
| IRQ HPD Pulse Detection Threshold | 2.0 | | ms | (f) |

> Comments:

> (a) HPD signal to be driven by the Sink Device

> (b) HPD signal to be detected by the Source Device

> (c) Source Device must pull down its HPD input with a ≥ 100kΩ resistor.

> (d) When a Sink Device is off, it must pull down its HPD output with ≥ 100kΩ resistor.

> (e) Sink generates a low going pulse within this range for IRQ (interrupt request) to the Source

> (f) When the pulse width is narrower than this threshold, the Source must read the link / sink status field of the DPCD first and take corrective action. When the pulse width is wider than this threshold, it is likely to be actual cable unplug / re-plug event. Upon detecting HPD high, the Source must read the link / sink status field, and if the link is unstable, read the link / sink capability field of the DPCD before initiating Link Training.

Then just below Table 3-2:

> The voltage level of the HPD pin is monitored by the Source Device. TTL levels must be used for the
detection.

> The Sink Device may detect the presence of the Source Device by monitoring the DC voltage level of the AUX CH lines. Source detection is an optional feature of a Sink Device.

Based on this language and description of noted workarounds, color me unconvinced that DP spec ambiguity was the root cause of this issue.
That's a great question. Stress testing, which is what you are suggesting helps, but is not super effective and often misses bugs. You need tools which can precisely control the task/go-routine scheduling during testing and systematically explore the various interleavings which can happen in the system. We generally don't have good tool support for such testing. There are promising tools emerging however; here is a case study of one such tool and how it was used to reliably reproduce and fix a subtle concurrency bug: https://cloudblogs.microsoft.com/opensource/2020/07/14/extre...
So you can have a pay grade of o-pi or e-sqrt(2), although that would be quite irrational.
When I was a kid I had a lot of friends in the local neighborhood. Kids used to just go outside and play with each other. Plus my parents were involved in the local community and knew a lot of other parents with kids, so they organized social stuff for me and my siblings. These were some of the best experiences I had growing up.

But you're right - school is the place where most people form friendships, just like adults at work. It's harder to form friendships if you're not regularly put into social situations with others. I'm not sure what the best answer is institutionally, but I don't think the current state school system is the right one.
They may not have the right, but they may have the power.

Also, more than 100 states out of 167 are democracies, so majority of states are democracies.

Show HN: I made a heatmap tool/API to analyse business visitor peaks
I made a (developers) tool/API to analyse visitor peaks of public business (restaurants, gyms, shops, etc) in whole areas.

You can filter business on the heatmap/ API on visitor peak intensity, location (e.g. neighbourhood), day, time range, business type (e.g. supermarket).

Using the API other developers can build cool innovate software. It might be useful to build some COVID-19 apps to avoid e.g. busy supermarkets.

Not very many use cases??

Except for:
- updates of software.
- distribution of public video files.
- distribution of install images.
- distribution of raw public measurements (ea science data).

Basically BitTorrent is the protocol for any usecase with 1:n (or n:n) with public data (ea. No data access controle is needed).

Copyright has nothing to do with it and the nature of BitTorrent does make it also a good fit for some pirates.

Never forget that the following is shared over BitTorrent:
- World of Warcraft updates.
- Linux distribution install images.
- haveibeenpowned sha lists.

And that’s just what I personally know. I know there is more.

But what is somebody supposed to do with this list, when it contains dynamic IP addresses used by many people? Ban everything on it, based on the assumption that some of them are actually endpoints of suspicious activity, thereby preventing many innocent people from using the Internet?

At my previous company I dealt with all the scraping bots for 15 years, in the end I even banned all of Tor and many of the commercial proxy network providers, with the justification that our site (CSE) didn't need anonymous posting because there was nothing sensitive and no private information on it. But I couldn't ban dynamic IP addresses for more than a few minutes since all the abusers originating from them happily obtained a new address within seconds and continued the scraping, rendering the IP address pool used by their provider completely banned from using our site.
Well that is how Gmail works if it finds a contact in your address book... type the name and it autocompletes. You could be on the receiving end of autocomplete failures that go unnoticed by the sender.
Oh Ada is so much more complex than Pascal. I think getting something with the numeric types is doable in a smaller timeframe, the OO, tasking stuff would be much harder.

You could knock out an object-Pascal / Oberon compiler in a matter of weeks imo.
But there is supporting evidence for all of those claims. It is not ironclad (or you may disagree with it). But they are not claims made without evidence. And reasonable people can, and do, disagree about specific pieces of evidence.

Furthermore, repeating a rumor is not negligent. So if I make a claim without evidence, but you repeat it and cite me, only I have done something wrong.

To get concrete, there is evidence that Kyle Rittenhouse murdered someone. He's been charged with first-degree intentional homicide, this is Wisconsin's equivalent of Murder.

There is evidence that Kyle Rittenhouse is a white supremacist. He travelled across state lines to disrupt and intimidate people at a protest for racial justice. While he may not be a card carrying neo-nazi, that's evidence.

There is evidence that Kyle Rittenhouse is a terrorist. He (presumably) unlawfully used violence and intimidation against civilians for political purposes. He's listed on wikipedia's list of right-wing terrorists in the US[0].

So now you have to show that not only are the above statements false, but that they are so blatantly false, that it is unreasonable for a person to believe them, and that to reach those conclusions would require negligence. But of course, you can't really do that. Wikipedia agreeing with me pretty much proves that my claims aren't unreasonable. They may be wrong, but they aren't negligently so.

> They also invent and distribute "facts" which are material to the case such as where the individual got the AR-15 used during the event, and the circumstances surrounding its use.

Coming to incorrect conclusions after good faith investigation isn't negligent. At the moment, as far as I know, Rittenhouse got his rifle within the state of Wisconsin, from a friend. But not knowing that information, it is not unreasonable and negligent to state "He must have acquired the gun illegally, since he is underage and can't transport it across state lines." That's a reasonable conclusion. It's wrong, yes, but it's reasonable.

> This is clearly not the case when dealing with situations like the above,

Just to be clear, you are saying that it is reasonable for a person to call someone else a pedophile without any evidence, but calling someone who shot and killed someone else, on video, a murderer, is negligent? Am I getting that right?

Previously I said that you misunderstand negligence. I'll repeat what I said and add that it appears that you, personally, have an extraordinary level of prudence. Which is totally acceptable, and perhaps even an admirable trait. But it is not ordinary. Legally speaking, you appear to be "unreasonable".

Where I live in Germany, small traditional butchers and bakers etc. are also closing down, but not for the lack of customers. They get too old, and nobody wants to take over.

About 8 or so years ago, a baker closed at the city center, replaced by a chain, and a friend lamented how traditional bakers can't keep up with the chains that basically put frozen products in the oven. Her father laughed and said the place was a gold mine, but the owner retired and nobody wants to get up at 3 in the morning anymore to bake bread.

Sure, but the money still has to come from somewhere, and that's from appropriations authorized by Congress.

Now, if you believe that these agencies have amassed and hoarded enough of the money they've already been given that they now have an endowment that can perpetually fund their activities, then yes, that would mean you really can't stop them. But I'd find it hard to believe that's the case; what they do is not cheap, and I'd be surprised if there's all that much left over after they spend their yearly budget on regular operations.

If Congress voted to completely defund these agencies, they'd go away. Not immediately, and I'm sure there will still be some in power who create limited shadow agencies that run on much, much smaller budgets, but they can't operate at the scale they do now without continued funding.
