There are many reasons why I respect him, but the fact that he laid out a time plan for Scala 3 already 2 years ago and then kept the timeline is mind-boggling.
My understanding is that "We will extradite him on the grounds of copyright, but you cannot charge him for money laundering."

If they were to then charge him for money laundering, then it would mean NZ has 0 trust that any extradition to the US would be honored and future extraditions would be evermore increasingly difficult.

But at the end of the day, who knows. It's the US, they do what they want.
That actually makes me hopeful. If we can get a lithium air battery working the a 10x jump in density is possible.

I've been using MPE with the Roli Seaboard and Bitwig and it's definitely extremely expressive and fun to use. Highly recommended.
> The crucial point here is if Scala 3 maintains backwards compatibility with Scala 2.x.

The Scala team is keenly aware. Scala 3 can use Scala 2.13 libraries - in fact the 3.0 stdlib is the exact same .jar as the 2.13 stdlib - and a future version of 2.13 will be able to use scala 3 artifacts as long as it doesn't use 3+ only language features.

> used to sell InteliJ licenses

Though IntelliJ has amazing features for Java/Kotlin: it comes with a free version that packs most of 'm. I think saying it's all to sell licenses is a disingenious, lots of longstanding Java pain points get addressed by Kotlin in a really nice way. It has a really strong webdev ecosys building up, and comes with a rather interesting feature set as language itself. I'd say its good "typed Ruby" (OO at the core, FP where it makes sense, very expressive, dont type too much).

Scala's issues on the other hand stem, I think, from it being multi-paradigm. Where Kotlin is OO-core with FP where it makes sense, Scala is both OO and FP at the same time which makes it messy.

Frege explored being full FP on the JVM, but looking at the repo[0] it did not get much traction.

from the perspective of my experience, yes. I think that is not true if you make a copy.

At least, you would leave an old you behind. Which from my intuition would be "me".

I understand "me" would also live on, but at that point I think I would just prefer to die.
" (currently working on disconnecting power when not in use"

Watch out, modern printers run a full OS that doesn't expect power to be fully cut regularly. My Xerox does a full filesystem check every time I turn the power to it on, which takes about 5 mins. For my next printer I will carefully research how this works on it.
Just tried as per your recommendation, I have a loud AC unit behind me but the high noise floor is entirely gone. It's almost magical, sure it sounds a bit like low bitrate lossy compression artifacts but it's incredibly clear.

I'll be using this for all my calls in the future.
This is like saying, airplanes are too complex. There are so many knobs and buttons. I'd rather just walk or ride a bike everywhere.

Scala is a very powerful, very expressive language. There are some features which you can just choose to leave out. If you do, you end up with a very clean, concise, and powerful language that makes you really productive.

I've literally had moments where I made my algorithm 5x faster just by adding 4 letters: '.par' in front of an operation. Instantly it got parallelized without my having to do anything, and the processing time got cut 5x.

High-end art/photo printers have the same ink cost problem as consumer inkjets, but on an industrial scale.

I used to have an Epson A2 printer and a full set of inks cost more than £500.

You can get ink reservoir systems but they're messy and rather fragile. Although they do pay for themselves if you're printing at scale.

> other than that it is a very tedious language

And that, is precisely why it is a good language for teams.
Agree with everything you say.

One thing I have been surprised by is the quality of photo prints from my colour laser (Brother dcp-l8410cdw). Admittedly, my expectations were very low, and it's certainly a long way off high-quality professional printing.

But for something temporary like a photo to pin to the fridge for a few weeks, it's actually good enough.

I think this is relevant for quite a bit of the market. Most people getting photo prints online don't seem to care much about quality - the results vary a lot between companies and many cheap ones are really bad.

I'd say the colour laser get fairly close to bad ones ordered online, and is significantly better in quality to some other photo products (custom birthday cards, that sort of thing).

So I think for many causal users/uses it's pretty viable
California Voters Exempt Uber, Lyft, DoorDash from Having to Reclassify Drivers

I have a pretty large codebase written in scala 2.12 or so (whatever the version was around late 2018). I'd like to migrate it to scala 3. Any ideas how hard it'll be?
I'm fine with that. It sits in my homelab rack on the lowest rung, it uses a bunch of power that could be saved. I only print once a month or so, for those cases, it's entirely fine if it takes the 5 minutes it needs to boot.
Interesting. Seems like a complex problem to get a community right as it scales.

Thanks for sharing your perspective.
I'd say that holds about as much value as criticizing C-style languages for allowing all these variants

if(x) true
if(x)
true
if(x) (true)
if(x) {true}
if(x) {
true
}
if(x)
{
true
}

etc. In practice you use a linter to enforce a style and it's not a problem.

For the curious. The combinations follow out of fairly simple rules:

() and {} are interchangeable for expressions - altough {} can contain multiple statements and () only an expression.
x op y is equivalent to x.op(y)
Type abscriptions - x : Type - are optional and will be inferred if possible
{ case ... } is the pattern match construct and works similarly to a function with 1 parameter.

I'm saying that the currently available HP printers all have DRM that makes them potentially not work with 3rd party ink. I called them to be sure and was told that this is to ensure quality. This is doublespeak for "so that we have more control over how you use it".

I get the impression that right now they have the technical capability to disable 3rd party cartridges but do not use that capability for the most part. But they're quite upfront that they may change their mind.

So yes, non-DRM'd cartridges work on HP printers for now. That might change at any time though, at only their discretion. I don't know why you'd expect the same cartridge form factor to work in every printer you own.

I am saying that HP is making it so that third parties may be technically unable to manufacture cartridges and are left instead doing workarounds like refilling old HP cartridges.
Tesla hit with $14M fine for alleged battery recycling noncompliance
I've never had much trouble with printers. I owned an original Apple LaserWriter II, which I retired in working condition, an HP LaserJet, which I retired in working condition, and an Epson ET-2650, which works OK. It's cheap to operate; I have to pour in some more ink once a year or so. Doesn't seem to jam. It is subject to nozzle clogging if not used for a week or two, but a few cleaning cycles fixes that.

It's on the end of a USB cable and driven from Linux, so it doesn't phone home or require an Epson account. Prints fine. It's also a scanner, using the terrible SANE software for Linux, but it scans fine once.
My bad, that was an uncharitable way to phrase it. I didn't mean to imply that you are filling inboxes, but more that I believe it tilts the balance in that direction.
Can you make it so I determine the user segment on my end and just send you the user id and segment id? I'd totally use this then.
Go is incredibly readable I find. Yes, you tend to find yourself writing a lot of code because of the lack of generics, but that is being fixed as we speak. Generics has a draft and it looks nice from a Go developers perspective.

And Go let's you communicate by copying. That's what a Channel is. Pass a struct and that is copied. Pass a pointer and the pointer is copied. The thing it points to isn't copied for glaringly obvious reasons.

And what would you suggest is a good alternative for returning multiple parameters. Currently this basically forces you to handle any possible errors and results in software you can very easily reason about.

Not sure what you mean about human reviewers needing to check errors.

Yeah there's no silver bullet for any of these problems probably.

That said an end-to-end test seems just as likely to merely test implementation details. You could have all kinds of changes in behaviour without necessarily doing anything incorrect.

I suppose the point is that you need to test where you can define what correct behaviour is. And if this is only possible for end-to-end tests then something is screwy.

There are many organisms that appear to be able to live for exceedingly long times (and perhaps indefinitely). Disregarding unicellular organisms, there are, for example, species of jellyfish that appear biologically immortal [1]. There are also examples of trees (or, rather, root systems) that have lived for extremely long times [2].

This is what I plan on doing because I'm gay. I want to have a family but the majority of gay men never have a long term partner and the ones that do hardly ever have children because the process is so difficult and expensive. Ideally, I'll be able to find a woman who is willing to co-parent with me without any expectation of romance or sexual attraction. It's nice to see that this kind of thing might be normalized some day.
The "metrics are normal but users complain" example is something I've experienced repeatedly as a user. It's incredibly frustrating and leaves a really bad impression when an app/site is utterly, obviously, reproducably broken and stays in that state for a week.

The affected users don't care that it works for others, and you can only afford to ignore it if you are OK with not only losing those users forever, but also the negative reviews and word of mouth.

The probably biggest (in terms of company size/affected users) example of this would be Twitter's "something went wrong" on mobile. I'm sure that they have some sort of metrics showing them that everything is fine, but plenty of users on HN complain that they are pretty consistently getting a generic error message when they open a Twitter link until they reload the whole page. (I assume it's separate from the issue mentioned in the article, since it was still ongoing recently.)

Also, because errors are much more noticeable than everything working, a 10% error rate is pretty much perceived as "never works".

A subtopic of that: The affected users don't care why it is broken, and it is broken until it is fixed for them. If you fix the issue, but the fixed version hasn't yet made it to your users' phones (e.g. because it's only fixed in the development version, or your version hasn't made it through some review process), then your app is still broken. (Looking at you, Newpipe and Firefox: Newpipe was broken for weeks, apparently because F-Droid, their official distribution channel, is shipping an outdated version, and when trying to fix that by downloading the newest APK, I ran into a bug in Firefox Mobile that prevents downloads from working - which is fixed in some developer version but not the public one, and has been broken for at least a week).
Sadly it's no surprise after we experienced left-pad case.
I print on photo paper to make front panels for electronic projects. It's fine under thin acrylic sheet.

Yeah, the toner transfer method[1] produces superior results, but when it's gear for my own use, I cant be bothered with the faffing around.

Sometimes I print photos too, just to have them around. With me it's "out of sight, out of mind", so I like to have the physical object as a reminder of something. Using your own printer on site has much less friction than using an upload-and-wait service.

All that said: yes it's getting to be a niche thing these days.

1. Laser print a reversed image in heavy lines onto an overhead transparency sheet, then use a hot clothes iron to melt the toner onto your shiny aluminium front panel. Three layers, tea towel, OHP, front panel. Then spray your panel with satin or semi-matte clear lacquer--once you've scrubbed off the metal front panel and repeated the printing and ironing often enough to get something that looks OK.

Having done a bit more reading through other sources. There should be more focus on his abdominal scar, reduced teste size and cachexia (wasting). This is a very common symptom pattern for cancer. A large portion of cancer patients die from cachexia. HIV, or a chronic disease of heart/liver/kidney are other possibilities but would have left other evidence that would have certainly been noted in the autopsy.

My guess is there are some oncologists and surgeons (probably in NY) who know who this person was, but cannot say anything due to confidentiality.

I had an opposite experience. Go code is just like other code in any other languages. It still can be abused to be unholy mess.

I doubt that AB5 was itself the target of much particular care.

Prop 22 is viable this year because of the COVID-19 pandemic and the dire straits so many are in. It's supported by those who need any source of income they can lay claim to, no matter its quality, and by those who know someone like that, and so on. In a year (or a society) in which fewer people were so desperate, I would very much like to believe that this perverted lawbuying would be shot down by a wide margin.
In that case, wouldn't you screen the trial participants for that gene?
F-Droid's UI is trash in terms of usability IMO.
Quite clunky.

If that was your issue too there are various frontend forks that fix that issue in better ways than F-Droid has attempted to.
I for one use FoxyDroid which is about as minimal as it gets, but still usable and pretty to look at.
There's also AuroraDroid (best looking one IMO), and G-Droid as alternative frontends.
I did not imply the innovation is worthless. That’s exactly how innovation should work, it is as valuable to prove something does not work as come up with something that does. But that value is only meaningful if others learn from that. In other words, the innovation of mobile payment is not worthless, but attempts to adopt it at this point would be.

If by “cool” you mean exclusive and expensive, then good news: it’s still the same today! Obviously not for things like low resolution 3D graphics, web browsing, or word processing, but that’s because those things have been democratized already and the world has moved on. There are plenty of new frontiers though, you’ve just got to rip off the nostalgia goggles and embrace them.
