you need green screen support? always felt like a cosmetic thing to me
That's not the kind of disruption they were promising!
I’m not certain that doing something like that voluntarily in the absence of an emergency is _less_ crazy. Great story.
Most of these SPAs you speak about have loading spinners, grayed-out placeholders, all sorts of tricks to make it feel like you're in control while the fetch() roundtrip to populate the page data completes. The borders of your screen may not change, but the page filling with elements after a delay can be just as jarring.

If a non-SPA page loads near instantaneously because the client-side rendering isn't bloated, it can feel just as good as an SPA with spinners.

You can also use tools like turbolinks the author recommended, to turn your non-SPA into an SPA.
I'm not sure if we're saying the same thing, by partial hydration I mean only wiring some specific client side components for interactivity. As in only shipping the react components over the wire that need to be rendered on the client for user interaction. Meaning the overall page is vanilla HTML, but some subtrees are React wired components. Complete with state management that can work between all of them. In which case I'm thinking it would be fine to mark components individually as server/client.
Oh thanks for sharing this and this is what I was looking for
I assume that it's related to Google's recent investment in ADT. ADT likely doesn't want Google competing directly with them.

It's a good question, and to be fair there is a broad range of things that go on under that label.

I would draw the distinction between freelancing and consulting this way: you are freelancing if you directly or indirectly (e.g. through a body shop consulting agency) are providing variable bandwidth for a client. So they could probably do the work themselves but need more horsepower. By comparison consulting would be where they bring you in to provide insight, experience, or skills they do not possess.

The lines are somewhat blurry.

A marginal amount but remember the only difference between the 6800 XT (16 GB, 72 compute units, $649) and the 6900 XT (16 GB, 80 compute units, $999) is "flagship cost" for the last 8 compute units to be enabled.

It's the same story on the 3090, you get the 7th compute cluster enabled and they happened to double the memory. Nothing about that more than doubles the price of the card from the 3080, it's the same "flagship cost" driving price.
Rust’s compiler is in Rust, though it does use a C++ library for the main backend, you can also use a newer one which is implemented in Rust.

Almost there, you login to the server and run application, that application connects to the X Server on your client:

+----------------+ +----------------+

| | | |
| +-----------+ | | +-----------+ |
| |X Server +<---------+Application| |
| +-----------+ | | +-----------+ |

"X device" would be better name — as you connect to the server application draws on your X device.
> Which is an admirable sentiment… but the title of this thread is not “Python: still doing useful work” but “Python: now 20% faster”

No, it's actually, “Pyston v2: 20% faster Python". But...so what?

> and being ridiculously self-congratulatory about this when the correct response is to laugh at the silly pointless frivolity of it

For the same reasons Python is often a valuable choice, a faster Python is a valuable option.

> Trying to make Python fast is a fool’s errand, because Python is slow by design.

Python is not slow by design, though it's slow because it's not fast by design. But that doesn't mean it's not useful to have a faster Python, only that there are likely to be limits and trade-offs involved in doing that.

> A useful argument would be that Python is faster overall at solving various real-world problems than current alternatives; but that’s not the popular argument being made

Yes, actually, it is. It's not the message of the Pyston v2 release blog entry, but then that blog entry isn't making an argument in the debate that you seem to want everything to be about.
John Oliver did an episode on surveillance where he actually interviewed Snowden as well as "people on the street". Although most had no idea who Snowden was, there was (among the people shown in his interviews - could have been selectively chosen) a heightened awareness of the surveillance state.

It is well written or it isn't. What's with the "seems" business?

Does it? Then why did you fail to mention a single one in your comment?
I'm not sure why that's your takeaway here. Wayland exists precisely because things should easily mix and match - it should be easy to get your apps displaying/moving on any standard compositor. The same would go for other Freedesktop standards to do things like input, clipboard interaction, and screen recording.

The only difference is that all these things currently used to exist within the X.org project, and now they're in various other places (some parts in fact don't exist at all...). There's nothing stopping people from abstracting a lot of this functionality out in a library for others to more easily build their own stuff with it [1]!

If anything the efforts replacing X11 will make it easier to mix and match components, because it gets rid of the focus on the singular X.org implementation. Not saying multiple implementations of the same thing is necessarily a good thing mind you, but you can't accuse these efforts of making it more difficult to mix and match.

[1]: e.g. https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots does some of this to make it more easy to build a window manager that supports Wayland
3090 is still great for rendering workloads where you want the VRAM and ray tracing hardware but don't want to pay the Quadro tax. Other than that though yeah it's just the "don't care about price" performer.
The transaction in the back end probably is just an internal transfer. You do a one off transaction say 1000 and you spend from that. So you only did a single asset sale
I didn't mention Disney? You asked what moral claim they would have to that work and I'm arguing that copyright is a govt imposed restriction on the natural right of humans to create and share derivative works.

If we are citing legal trivia the original constitution of 1790 allowed for a copyright term of 14 years, with a single extension, for a total of 28 years. So the halloween special would have entered the public domain in 1994.
I'm aware that client certificates exist. I'm not aware of anyone actually using them.

It also doesn't really have the problem of "unapproved" sites. You are already installing a certificate on the client. It's no extra work to add another trusted CA at the same time.

You can earn 2% directly on coinbase [0] or 3% on compound [1] (actually closer to 6% if you include selling the governance tokens you receive - with some additional shenanigans you can push this up to 20 - 30%, but that would require a longer post). One neat thing about compound is that your returns can technically be considered capital gains rather than dividends, which is beneficial if you hold longer than one year.

Risk rise, you're holding DAI for both approaches, so you are exposed to smart contract risks from Makerdao + some market based risks (in cases where there are very large price swings). With compound, you take on additional smart contract risks from the compound platform.

HN isn't a moneymaker. It's a goodwill-maker and brand-maker for YC so it's better for them to keep it the way it is.
This reminds me of the classic phrase, “the butler did it”. It took me ages to realise that butlers aren’t naturally villainous, but rather were expected to take the fall for any malfeasance committed by the family.
I own a Nest Secure and actually really really love it. It syncs with my Nest + Yale door locks, so when I keypad into my house, it auto-disarms, which is amazing. I don't carry keys with me anymore, and the lock is gorgeous.

It's also just _really_ nice. They put a lot of thoughtfulness into the Nest Detect motion/door open sensor. They filter out my dogs near perfectly. The voice warnings are great and useful. The keypad is nice. And it's integrated into the Nest app so I have a one-stop shop.

Google just invested $400M into ADT... so I have to believe these things are related. They also committed to re-manufacturing Nest Detects, so they're not _completely_ sunsetting this. I wonder if they have another version of this, or an ADT-linked version that just got delayed by pandemic, but they sold through their stock and decided to do this in the interim, but I feel like it's weird they wouldn't just announce that.

It's worth noting that the monitoring service for Nest Secure is NOT ADT, it's Brinks/Moni. So I wonder if that's a big part of their reasoning. They've put their money behind a direct competitor essentially, so maybe they don't want to feed money away from their new investment.

I'm more worried about the clear writing on the wall to spin down the Nest app. The Google Home duplicated work is simply no where near parity yet, and I fear it won't be for quite some time. When they eventually tell us they're sunsetting the Nest app (in a year or two, if I had to guess, maybe sooner?), I really hope they'll have the scrubber timeline view and maintain the auto-lock and such.

As someone who's bought fully into the Google Home/Nest ecosystem, but is also keenly aware of Google's penchant for Old Yellering the hell out of things... this doesn't really surprise me. But I hope they support it for a long time to come. It's a really nice system.
> When about do you think firefox will no longer build for X?

Firefox? 2025 at the latest. Firefox was the project that deprecated ALSA a few years back. Now that all major distros ship with Wayland as the default, it's time to assume Wayland and not assume X. Eventually X support will become burdensome, and be removed.
Meteor.js maybe, not sure of its focus nowaday, back when I played around with it, you had basically a MongoDB that you could query and mutate on the client, everything was then synced via a pub/sub system with the server.
I also am departing from Next.js as the future is now clear - upselling their commercial stuff.
That reminds me of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intershop vs https://www.intershop.com; I'm still not sure whether the latter emerged from the ashes of the former. Given the tangled web occasionally woven by privatization of socialist enterprises, I would not be entirely surprised.

Well the point is it’s a completely different sort of phenomenon. In a normal human (and normal animal) the will to survive is extremely strong.

The situations you allude to are almost exclusively mental situations. Having to operate on oneself, while mentally taxing, is a fundamentally physical dilemma. It produces fear and stress, but not existential ennui.

Hyperinflation is an economics term with a defined meaning which does not match how you're using it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperinflation

You're also making the mistake of assuming equal demand: Bitcoin is inherently deflationary but it's also completely voluntary — few people use it and nobody is required to use it. Bitcoin's high variability over the years shows that speculator demand can last for years but there's no lock-in and many competing options. There are a few people who've put large amounts of money into it but statistically almost nobody uses it so there's little defense against a competitor because most people have no sunk cost and most of the percentage who do have only a small holding at risk.
If n is unsigned short then -n means n is first promoted to either int, or unsigned int: the first of those two types which holds all values of unsigned short. Then the - operation is taking place on the resulting value in that promoted type.

An example where unsigned short promotes to unsigned int are platforms where sizeof(short) == sizeof(int). E.g. 16 bit systems where short and int is 16 bits, and long is 32: compilers for 8086 and such.

If the promotion goes to int, the subsequent - is safe; there is no way the resulting value can be that problematic most negative int of two's complement.

On two's complement systems, even if the - is signed, if you convert the value back to unsigned short, you will get the two's complement value, as if the calculation was done in the unsigned type all along.

For instance a 16 bit unsigned short value of 65535 (0xFFFF) will go to 65535 of type int, which will go to -65535, which will then map to 1 if converted to unsigned short.
You're no fun.
> I don't know how people stand to live with these devices and the irritating software that runs on them

I saw the beginning of the end when a dialog box popped up saying something like "Microsoft Word requires your attention." This represented (to me at the time) a fundamental misunderstanding of the purpose of office software and who it was working for. Apparently Microsoft (and Apple who implemented whatever irritating API they were using) decided that software should be in charge of the user, instead of the reverse.

Now with the attention economy, there is little pretense regarding who the software serves primarily (vendors and advertisers) and who it exerts dominion over (users.)
This is really important feedback. Thank you. We actually think about what we are building as very much "Do-It-For-You".

Your feedback is making me think that we're not doing a great job of making clear the importance of the role of the professional interviewer in what we create for our customers.

Separate from the important logistical aspects of our service that other contributors mention on the thread, our customers continue to share with us that the role of the professional interviewer is just really important.

This space that gets created between professional interviewer and guest makes it possible for the guest to go beyond that first question about, say, the relationship between two people, and get much deeper into particular periods in each others lives when that relationship has really mattered, and also sharing makes sharing lighter moments a lot of fun.

I'll just say that the art and skill of the follow up question is real.

I'd also say that if reading a bit about what we are up to inspires you to interview your mother's closest friends about her and their relationships, that means a lot to me and please go for it. Also, let us know how we can help!

Feel free to email me with any questions you might have as to how to best set things up: contact@heyartifact.com
Pandas is not some mysterious black box. If you need predictable runtime performance or bounded memory usage, you have to figure it out. Pandas doesn't inherently have a staggering or unpredictable amount of overhead, given that it's a statistical analysis package. There are ways to mitigate Pandas memory usage (10x is a sign that something has gone very horribly wrong), and sometimes Pandas is simply the wrong tool for the job.
There’s a long history of accident, negligence, and criminal reports from various industries that have, somewhere in their narrative, some version of ‘X and Y worked the night shift and while the documented procedure mandated that whenever they did A they must also do B, they had gotten into the habit of doing C instead’.

Not actually counting all the bolts after replacing the window on the plane; not checking in with the supervisor before administering that drug; not double checking that the name on the ID matches the name on the passenger list...

And signing something off with someone else’s supervisor code goes well beyond cutting corners on a process, though - that’s falsifying records. At that point you’re subverting the process.

Sure, some approval processes are BS, but... generally, any time you’re in a role where you need a supervisor to sign off on stuff, you do not know enough about what matters to your business to tell the difference between BS and critical safety or security guarantees.
>There have been times where, if I had the training and knew that self-surgery would lead to quick relief after only another few hours of excruciating sensation, I might have been willing to give it a go.

i've had similar thinkings about dental surgery during intense oral pain.

Tooth pain is pretty bad -- it's amazing that anything can make a human come to the conclusion of : "Well, if I ripped all the bad teeth out of my head..."

The lead in Darren Aronofsky's 'Pi' comes to a similar conclusion before self-trepanning due to intense migraines, although in that movie it is made intentionally unclear whether or not the peace the lead comes to is due to the hole in his head, or something else.

Yes, non-questionable. You tried to compare massage parlors with strip clubs when neither are questionable.

On the other hand, both underground dogfights and boxing matches are both questionable.

Exactly this. I bought the Nest Secure system a few years ago because I already had Nest thermostats and cameras, so security made sense and everything integrated well.

But now I really regret it. I have a 3 year deal w/ Google's partner for Nest Secure, and I wouldn't be surprised once those 3 years are up that they'll sunset the device completely.

So disappointed in Google.

First, make your health (not a job) your top priority. You only have one life. Jobs come and go.

Also, investigate these today:

* Short-term and long-term disability benefits you may have.

* Unpaid FMLA leave you can take.

* Ask therapist about potential options.

* Ask therapist about increasing therapy sessions to > 1x/week.

* Walk outside. Several times a day, if you want.

Now you're claiming that I'm making an argument that I never made.

To be clear, the original statement was whether there was a better review tool compared to Gerrit for those who review code and use that tool for that purpose. I responded by suggesting the patch review via mailing list method and asked a follow up question about how Gerrit handled related commits and explained how that case was handled by the mailing list method.

Then you, not the person I originally responded to, decided to interject and, while claiming not to be rude, claims I'm saying something entirely different than what I actually stated.

Personally, I found that very off putting and extremely rude on your part.
I think there is another layer to that conversation. Frameworks become bureaucratic and boring because they are developed by large teams for large teams. Most developers are working on small projects and need more fun and less maintaining huge amount of boilerplate code that recreates the browser.

The framework that I feel makes development less ugly is svelte. But still, I really don't like the idea of heavy client side websites. It really makes everything more complicated and the user's device slower.

I love the simplicity of Turbolinks,
I love how clean svelte code is and

I’ve heard it come up in an enterprise context, when there was a question about using a Google product - “they have a history of killing products, so let’s pick an alternate if possible”. This was a couple of years back, don’t remember what (could have been Google Glass).
My 2 cents... For the vast majority of the world where legacy (or at least not-programmed-using-super-modern-standards) systems are still in play, clarity is the most important factor in software. What happens when a legacy system is actually returning the number of seconds since epoch versus milliseconds? What if they're returning ticks (looking at you .NET...) because nobody realized ticks are inconsistent across different systems at the time the system was written?

I don't think you can get any more clear than an ISO timestamp (WITH time zone). Unix timestamps are great and efficient, but I personally value the absolute clarity of ISO above all else.
