And if this is the first car you are building, that may even sound pretty impressive.

I’m not really sure what to think of everyone being so negative here.
I also am regularly limited in opening large text files working with genetic data.
The write-once-run-everywhere promise -- Flutter is really good at multi-platform support because it works at the pixel level.

So in a browser/web context, all you need (roughly) is a canvas, and to compile the relevant Dart to JS and you're off to the races.
Also, when I think of minimal I think of nano or ed (I have not used ed but it still comes to mind). Vim is pretty complex out of the box if you think about it, and that’s what enables the tons of plugins that you get.

Hospitals are porous, almost public places. You need EMR terminals in rooms where patients are left alone with the door closed overnight.
It looks like Flutter compiled for the web.
I think it'll be confusing having two container registry solutions in an AWS account.
Since TeamViewer is a German company I looked up the rules for a non-compete clause in Germany (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wettbewerbsverbot#Nach_Beendig...):

1. It can only be valid for up to two years after your employment ends.

2. Your former employer has to continue to pay you at least half of your last salary during the non-compete time.
privacy.com gang checking in. Use it, love it, wonder how you got by without it.

I create a new card for literally every online transaction at a different website. So I would mak a teamviewer card with $10/mo monthly limit (or whatever threshold you want).

It’s also handy for signing up to new services that let you try for 7 days then bill you. Can’t bill me! The card has no money on it, ha ha!

(You can specify $5 total limit for example.)
It should also be added that an out of control infection is not the only reason why you end up with an immune response that harms the host. It's quite possible to get a severe immune response to an infection that's quite limited.

Kind of similar to anaphylaxis to bee stings. The venom was never any threat to a human, but the immune response sure can be.
You can't expect a human to level with you on the internet if they've hitched their online persona to being an expert with an opinion on the topic.
I really don't think he understands vim. He writes that the plugin system is its best feature, whereas I (as someone who as almost exclusively used vim for a decade and a half) have never installed a plugin.

For many, many, many vim'ers, I know, the modal system (and hence the musclememory macro/scripting) IS the defining best feature...

Also, see all the "browser with vim binding" and "x with vim bindings" that is the modality, not the plugin system, that is emulated...

Do you have an example of a complicated code base that uses flutter? I've never seen an interface designed with it that makes me think "wow. Great interface.", let alone the feeling that it can handle the functionality I would port to it.
Hi 50cents.

This article is not far off in its prediction that AWS would support multi-cloud natively eventually if that's what the market demands (See also: AWS Marketplace). We are very early in our journey and are multi-cloud already and because we're bootstrapped, cost ultimately decides what we use. And no, I don't mean multi-cloud in a way Netflix does it, but in a way where different parts of our system are hosted wholly by different cloud providers. So, in a sense, everything supports multi-cloud already anyways?

> QLDB is a recent entry to the canon. It’s easy to spot these "AWS-native" services because they’re often dogfooded by Amazon retail.

Well, in some cases, it is dog-fooded by AWS themselves. In QLDB's case, the underlying tech was built for EC2 [0] whilst Kinesis Data Streams was built by the Billing team at AWS [1].

I'm kind of the opposite in that I find being in the world at large far harder than being by myself at home.

That said I am super-sensitive to external noise, especially my neighbour's dogs barking. My 'office' is also at the front of the house so any passing car (hardly any) can also irritate me.

My experience of watching my responses to external stimuli is that it all seems to depend on my underlying mood. ie. On a 'good' day I barely notice the dogs, but on a bad day it's like being flayed alive!

My feeling therefore is that the loneliness you mention could be why the noise is affecting you so much.

Here in Australia we are getting lots of TV ads about mental health and getting support, so it may help to visit your normal doctor, discuss it with them. and review your options. I did.
I would like to have an editor like this but with native vim, emacs, nano, ... modes, so that the user can decide on how to use his blazingly fast terminal editor in an all-in one ecosystem.
An editor without a steep leaning curve? Like what we use nano for now?
Basic Streaming Data Enrichment on Google Cloud with Dataflow SQL

TIL price gouging of medical supplies during pandemics is a good feature of markets..
Not when it's a price shock, supply isn't able to respond to price signals in a timely fashion, and the increased prices are purely lining the pockets of middle men.
OP is (Li Haoyi). I am looking forward to read his book, whenever I find some time.
The really mind blowing thing is not just that DNA encodes everything for a living organism, but that it also has all the necessary elements to control expression so the right thing gets made at the right time in the right place.

The fun part is that it's not like DNA is just expressed, it needs to be "unwound" from it's natural state as a highly dense structure. Elements within the cell actually regulate the unwinding itself, that's one way genes are turn on/off.

And in addition, once DNA is unwound, split into a single strand and transcribed into RNA, the RNA itself becomes a regulating mechanism through siRNA. So the very act of transcribing DNA has regulating effect up the transcribing itself.
I tried doing that for my program and failed miserably, mostly because CLR is not optimised the same way the OCaml runtime is optimised to minimise copying of memory. As a result the (direct translation of the) program became more than 5 times slower, which was a deal breaker for this use case.

Yes, there are ways to write it in a .NET-y way in F#, but then it requires a "complete" rewrite and F# gives no real benefits with "being similar".

In contrast, after that I migrated to Rust and I am delighted. I wrote about it here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24893285

Of course, this is also a full-rewrite without using the same idioms as in OCaml (mostly because I mutate objects directly when needed) but I still think it's much better than F# as the language (Rust) is miles ahead in the practicality domain. Indeed, it's much better than anything I've seen so far. And still so very much "functional" and "elegant". I just miss the transparent currying from OCaml.
Unix only "won" in the sense that it's used. It doesn't mean that the situation has improved since the 80s... Y'all can stop boasting about a completely mediocre operating system with zero innovations for the last 30 years that functions about as well as what it was copying from the 80s. Y'all even failed to implement plan9's bind despite being an obvious improvement from what we have today. We're stuck with crappy, but stable, software that keeps you employed out of pure shittiness. Congratulations on sinking to the level of private enterprise.

I agree with you on Terraform and Pulumi (I'm especially excited about the latter, due to extra benefits over Terraform). However, I think that you are missing the main point / theme of the post - it is not specifically about AWS' approach to multi-cloud, but rather about general dynamics of the multi-cloud trend.
> Finally, the space agency is concerned because AST has never built a satellite remotely close in size to the 1-ton or larger vehicles that will populate its constellation. Given this lack of experience, it is expected that 10 percent or more of the satellites may fail, making them unable to maneuver to avoid collisions. NASA found the risk of a catastrophic collision to be "unacceptably high."

That is just one of the arguments that sound compelling at first read.
For HD, you'd also need a valid vendor-signed key to do the key exchange (which would get swiftly revoked once public), and/or to crack the trusted execution environment.

I actually thought about getting a place in Tahoe for 6 months, but turns out it is completely not workable for me
- I don't know anyone in Tahoe
- My 5 year old will have no friends
- Schools will soon start in person schooling
- I would like to be back in office
- Will miss the diversity of restaurants / groceries / wineries etc.
- Ethnic food or ethnic groceries are non existent

Turns out, you can buy a giant home in the Bay Area, in East Bay and get the exact same things
I heard it explained this way: in a war zone or disaster area it's risky to even have a market, so prices will rise very high. This is good. If prices were kept artificially low, by price-gouging laws for example, then there would be no market at all, as the risk would not be worth it

High prices during the pandemic slows hoarding, and is a signal to producers that there is high demand. When production ramps up to meet demand, prices will lower. This is the situation now.

Price-gouging laws encourage hoarding: the first person in line gets to buy everything at artificially low prices. Now they have to make other laws to limit purchases. Now people who need to buy for a large family or community can't buy enough. Now the needs to be another law allowing exceptions....
It really depends on the codec support. The Pi4s have hardware support for H.265 (4Kp60 decode) and H.264 (1080p60 decode).
Do you have a list of everything they delisted? Super odd that they'd remove that listing, but leave your listings for 16GB/32GB cards with NOOBS. Thinking optimistically, this is looks like accident of some sort and if you can ever actually get a response from eBay they'll realize it.
Lack for a better word I guess. This is what I do for myself and my So, but this isn’t a commodity accessible to anyone directly by their email provider.
This reminds me of a tangential matter. The Rasberry Pi has a built in hardware decoder for MPEG-2. You can pay a licensing fee and enable the decoder. This is despite the fact that the relevant patents on MPEG-2 have expired in the US and much of the world[1]. The issue is that there are still active patents in Malaysia[2].

That is precisely how probabilities work. If you have a simulation that gives an 80% chance of one outcome, but you only have 75% confidence that the assumptions that the simulation is based on, your actual prediction should be closer to 50%. This is not "throwing your hands up", it is simply correctly assessing the possibility of model error.

There is no such thing as giving a probability and also giving a confidence interval, for an event with a binary outcome. Everything that your prediction can say about the outcome can be said with a single number between 0 and 1. To give an answer like "80% plus or minus 15%" just means you haven't finished calculating.

I'da wagered dollars to doughnuts you were going to say Rust. I believe Rust hits each of those topics head-on, as well.
Sounds like this is covered by F# already, simply by the use of genercs (similar to what you described for OOP, which in that particular case doesn't really have any OOP downsides, i.e.: no inheritance, no state).

Part of the problem here is misaligned incentives.

In the aftermath of 9/11, a lot of federal money was made available for the reconstruction of all the stuff that was destroyed. However, it was only usable for things in the Ground Zero area. So to maximize the utility of all this money, the Port Authority created an insane train station dressed up to the nines to soak up $4B of free federal cash. They also lumped a bunch of other unrelated things into the station that raised the sticker price but would still be covered by the feds.

For what it's worth, this station was also at one point supposed to serve a LIRR extension from Atlantic Terminal to WTC, but kind of died after Pataki could not convince the feds that this was a reconstruction project and he left office. The project was never downsized in scope to match the new reality.
It's not actually saying that. It's saying, that the N is not really relevant technologically enough to be worth evaluating every damn time. It maybe relevant organizationally to fit your org chart.
Also, putting a barrier to creating a new service is a feature of monolith. Other types of partitionings are still there. They just might require some insight into existing arch.
I've edited 1GB sql dump files in Vim with no problem. I had to turn off my vimrc for it to work, but 300MB should be no problem as long as you are using barebones vim.

For performant buffer-wide operations (:g, :%s), I had success with using vim like an improved sed by passing in commands directly via the command line. That was noticeably faster than opening vim up and running the commands before exiting e.g.

# join together lines delimited by LF into one line, then convert all CRLF into LF
vim -Es \
-c 'g/[^^M]$/.,/^M$/join' \
-c ':%s/^M$//g' \
-c 'wq'
“Only bad for a month this year“, but these big California fires now happen every year.
Considering the fact that much of the same infrastructure they used in 1946 is still in use today (with 74 more years of wear and tear) its not surprising that its falling apart. This would be true even if the MTA wasn't staffed by dishonest, incompetent political cronies. When you regularly do things like spend $600 million dollars on trains that don't work, its not hard to see how you end up billions in debt very quickly.

just for the record, while I mostly agree with the analysis on that page, I believe the author tries to make a stronger case than it really is.

1) DKIM verifies the To: header, not the "rcpt to" receipient. The To: header has no value in determining who actually received the email. (Ex: you receive the email via BCC, you can't verify that the recipients listed in the To: actually got the email).

2) GMail actually does let users "spoof" the From: line. it needs cooperation from the "owner" of the address you want to use in the From line, but it is possible, and once set once, is never reconfirmed.

so, as I said, while I generally agree with the analysis, but I think 2 statements it makes are a bit too strong

1) "it was sent from this specific account, v.pozharskyi.ukraine@gmail.com" - It could have been sent via a different account that got the specific account's permission (either via a hack of sorts or cooperation) to spoof it. I'd agree that this isn't that likely.

2) "the intended recipient was to the account hbiden@rosemontseneca.com" - all we can know is that this was the To: line, it is very easy to spoof this. (every email one gets via BCC is essentially spoofing this).

do I think either points are very likely? Not so much, but any page trying to prove the authenticity needs to address the limits of the analysis, which the author didn't do.

Of course there are other assumptions we make, notably that no one was able to steal or crack Google's old DKIM key. I wonder how many google employees would have had access to this DKIM key over time (and if security procedures might have been relaxed once it was "expired" and the public portion no longer distributed).
Don't bet on boring languages. Bet on community and ecosystem. If those are vibrant and a good match for your domain, go for it. If multiple languages meet that criteria, choose the one you believe in.

Conversely, if you are developing a new language, focus on building a community and ecosystem around certain problems, even niche problems. That will give a consistent group of users that can build out the rest of the ecosystem slowly.

What’s up with the RIAA and MPAA this year? Feels like their lobbying has gotten out of hand.
I’m not much past 1000 hours myself, which is about when you can string together original thoughts that might be correct. I was always a fan of systems thinking so it’s been sucking me in. The matriarch of the family was the last master gardener as far as I’m aware, but I still have 15 years to match her and I think I might just... except she had a massive apple tree whose match I’ve seen maybe once, and I’ll be dead before any tree I plant is over 18”.

Secret Life of Trees, Mycelium Running, and to a lesser extent Gaia’s Garden (by the late, great Toby Hemenway) all have different vignettes about solid ecology that created as many questions as they answered, but lacking a teacher that can be a good thing. I’m slowly filling those gaps in elsewhere.
Yes, this is the kind of things I expect to get better if the tech gets more exposure.
If it doesn't then we'll be surely stuck with half-assed solutions for a truly cross-platform dev experience...
So 7 people could form a corporation to do this? One owns 49% and the rest 8.5% each. Or 11 people if you want equal shares for all.

Sonar tech here, this was true 20+ years ago but new torpedo and sub blade configurations are not only highly classified but any nuclear powered subs no longer even use blades to counter this exact problem. Only old russian and N. Korean subs can be identified this way anymore. Even when I was active duty 10 years ago china and us subs were basically silent and torpedoes surround themselves with air bubbles so the acustics dont really escape.

Yeah the thought did enter my mind but the magnitude of the discoveries made me dismiss it. She would have understood the magnitude of his ideas, which is made clear by her believing Albert will become world famous.

So given the magnitude of his ideas, if she really had helped develop them she would have also become famous. I mean, she is famous now.

And these are personal letters but apparently no mention of "our" ideas or credit due to her even in their personal correspondence. He did definitely need her to make a reputation, but the ideas were his.

...which (naturally) can't determine if some number x is equal to y or not; that alone makes using constructive real numbers challenging and the usage is virtually non-existent.

Yup, I use touchpad a lot and lack of proper gesture support on precision touchpads on Windows makes it unusable to me. To this day all bugs regarding this are open and only chromium based browsers support it nicely.
It seems like those who have success with microservice and advocate their use often have a much lower number of service than those critical of microservice architecture.

One customer I work with managed to create 10+ container based services, in order to do a database lookup, render a notification template and send the notification to one of three notification services. Because it’s Java based there’s now also a pretty large menory overhead, as each service needs it’s own memory allocation for the JVM. On the plus side they have became very aware the this is too many micro service and are refactoring and combining a few of the service.
For what it’s worth I’m not aware of AWS ever slashing a free tier or increasing pricing, though they do so much that I definitely could have missed something. Does anyone know of any examples particularly of them slashing a free tier later?
