I know Drew is very adamant about using mailing lists instead of pull requests. However, I like the public nature of pull requests and how they archive discussions.

Is there anything that already exists out there to bring that functionality to the email workflow?
I think it would make people upset with whoever is perceived to be incumbent leadership that this “would be allowed to happen.”

Whether the assignment on existing representation is logical is a fair question. But this would be far from the most irrational sentiment from voting people these days.

I’ll stake out this was purposefully repressed for political reasons. On surface it suggests weakness in oversight by the state. And lack of privacy protection oversight posture by prevailing party doesn’t help either.

Thank you. I am not sophisticated about these things so let me ask a follow-up. By "open" a file, most end users think of documents that are opened by applications... either from the App Store or from Apple.

I think you are thinking about things like shell scripts, binary executables that run in the terminal which being an official Mac "Application", etc. Is that right?
+1. Boring tech just works and provides familiar tools you can build on.
This needs a hard disclaimer, as in the USA "non-profit" is simply a term used to define a tax bracket. The spirit of the term is grossly violated when Red Cross can be in any category with Harvard or the like--schools that expressly serve the rich (and allow the poor).

In no meaningful way can a school who charges $100k+ for tuition--which is required in addition to "endowments" and other such huge checks they receive to help pay their wealthy administrators--be considered an actual non-profit organization. It is a tax ruse.

To put it even simpler: if the wealth of my parents is a metric for how much they'll charge me to attend, clearly "profit" is important, and specifically scarcity, a prime driver of profit in capitalist society. It sounds like the definition of "non-profit" in EU is different than here in the USA.
>"hate speech" IS explicitly defined

I suspect, though, that these laws are a continuously moving target, from what I have observed with various incidents in the UK for example.
October Update: Lime is now the top rated e-scooter sharing app in the world
If you are successful, it's gratifying to think that your circumstances are as much about things inside of your control as outside. If you are not, the opposite is a comfort. I find myself to be moderately successful due to a hearty helping of merit with an enormous mountain of luck.
Sadly, I have no issue with these people losing “their life’s work”, since they didn’t care that they illegally co-opted another artists “life work” to play in the background without so much as credits.

After all this, they could have just gotten an emi/ascap license and paid the money for royalties, which would have been the right thing to do, and they probably still would have made money on ads if they ran them.

Instead, they will rail for years about how they’ve been wronged without acknowledging their misdeeds.
Yes, SourceHut mailing lists have public archives. Some examples from our official mailing lists:

https://lists.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/sr.ht-dev

https://lists.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/sr.ht-discuss

https://lists.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/sr.ht-announce

https://lists.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/sr.ht-ops

Additionally, unlike GitHub, these discussions have been forwarded to all list subscribers, any of whom could trivially turn them into another public archive, independently of sourcehut. Such an archive is also available to list admins in one click for both export and import, in a standard file format. With DKIM and PGP signatures and such, you can even preserve the authenticity of these messages across arbitrary sources.

I'm in the same boat and did a lot of research and concluded the following:

1- Having an MVP built by a 3rd party will cost a lot of money. Hiring a contractor will also cost a lot. I would advise against hiring from fiverr/upwork, unless you want some minor work to be done or already know how a software is developped inside out. You can then cut the project in smaller chunks and tasks and seek someone to develop it for you.

2- Thinking that once you have your MVP you will be off the hook and can go try sell the product, get traction and some sales, and finally re-invest everything back in the buisiness will NOT work. You will need a developper/company on your side all the time, all the way trough your venture.

3- I was thinking of investing around $1k per month to get an MVP done, but this wouldn't have been good on a long run anyway.

4- I came to the conclusion, that it would be faster/easier just to learn programming from scratch instead. There are a lot of free resources out there. It takes time and persistence, but you will get there. This will save you long term, and even if your MVP fails, you would have learned programming and you can you that for another venture or get a job.

Hope this helps.

The terminology is a bit ambiguous here with the word 'process' so I'm not 100% sure precisely what you're asking. The BEAM (Elixir VM) uses the the term 'process' to describe its green threads/fibres. The BEAM runs as one OS process, with a thread per core of your machine and schedules each of the application green threads onto one of those threads. BEAM processes are cheap and quick to create and come and go regularly. The BEAM itself is very stable and will stay up permanently (potentially even through SW upgrade if you want). Whenever I say process below I mean a BEAM process.

When you use Phoenix, the Web framework creates a process to handle the specific request. By default everything you do happens in that process (give or take some database stuff). If you make a programming error that process will 'crash' (again a BEAM term that is more like an exception) and the user will get an error. No other processes will be affected, regardless of whether they are to do with other requests or anything else.

If you want a work queue, you would create a separate set of BEAM processes (or maybe just one), probably at startup. In your request handling you would send a message to that work queue process asking it to do things. Your request can block (not affecting any other requests) waiting for it if necessary, or it can return so you can get the result later. If the Web request times out or crashes or whatever, that will kill the handler process, but will leave the work queue process alone.

One other note - under the hood it's all message passing between processes, but to the programmer each process is probably just a Gen Server (an abstraction) and the message send and reply is just a function call. But normal Phoenix stuff doesn't even have that because the Web server does the 'process machinery' for handling requests.

what a Big Sur-prise. What ever happened to things just work?
Sadly, there's a type of people that will keep coming back to you as long as you reply. They won't accept what you are telling them, they will endlessly keep rephrasing what they want from you, coming up with endless explanations how it's very bad of you to not do what they are requesting. And once your patience finally runs out after 20 emails back and forth, they will throw a massive tantrum, that sometimes includes false complaints, reviews, and takedown requests. Ignoring them in the first place saves you the trouble. I guess, they quickly pick another victim instead.
That's the frustrating thing. I was convinced to try using a twitter account by a friend who talked about how great it is to follow interesting tech people. For some cases, I guess it could be. But the problem is, everyone seems to also tweet about current political stuff, and I have no interest in seeing that at every turn. I know "stop talking about politics everywhere" is trite, but stop talking about politics everywhere.
In what way? You can use duckduckgo, iOS, etc. The EU has failed to produce a good search engine and a good mobile operating system.
> it's also considerably anti-business [...] extremely complicated regulatory requirements

Do you have any personal experience with starting a business in the EU and receiving hostility or dealing with complicated requirements? (asking emteycz here, no one else)

I've started multiple businesses in different EU countries and never hit any "extremely complicated regulatory requirements" when I've done it. Basically sign some papers, pay the necessary fees (if even needed, not always a requirement) and make sure the company reports accurate numbers each quarter and you're basically good to go. Is it any easier in the US?

Or are you simply echoing other peoples opinions here?
Can you elaborate? How did they do this?

Rekowl: Knowledge Management with Spaced-Repetition
Our cats made lockdown bearable. Normally we wouldn't have got a pet for years, but a neighbour was moving to a place which didn't allow them and asked if we could take over.
CloudFormation is slow (custom resources take hours to time out), it's unpredictable (behavior is different for different services). I wish it didn't use stacks (drift happens and can only be fixed manually) and was just idempotent like ansible. It also doesn't come with sane defaults so you have to supply a load of boilerplate code (cdk fixes this using constructs).
This very much depends on the use case. If you are truly CPU-bound than yes, ruby is a bad choice. Similarly, if you are IO-bound or otherwise need a lot of concurrency ruby is not great. I also think it's problematic for large code bases with hundreds of developers. However, there is a huge swath of web apps and APIs that just need to pull a bit of data from a DB or two, munge it together and send it to the client. Rails is perfectly horizontally scalable and plenty fast for this even at scale given Amdahl's law.

That said, there are definitely some self-inflicted wounds people run into here. Of course there are the oft-cited expert beginner problems like n+1 queries and missing indices, but there's a more subtle issue as well: ActiveRecord itself is so convenient that it discourages writing baseline efficient code even when you need it. Basically any time you need to process a medium to large amount of data, ActiveRecord acts like a sort of super boxed type (to use Java terminology) adding a huge amount of overhead. Yes it's true that ruby doesn't even have true primitive types that can achieve the performance of Go or Java, but often times ruby primitives are plenty fast, you just have to be willing to write a bit of extra code, and ActiveRecord as an ORM has plenty of escape hatches at various levels of granularity to facilitate this (eg. pluck, find_by_sql, update_all, execute, etc).
Most mailing lists have archives; doesn't that do what you want?
And following that assumption, the most recent version of the national electric code in the US calls for there to be a drop for a EVSE at every N parking spots in new apartment buildings (there's a formula based on how many spots). It doesn't require for an EVSE to actually be installed, but the building has to have the capacity for it. That's important because adding say 20 30 amp EVSEs is a non-trivial increase in the total capacity a building needs.

BTW, even a 30 amp EVSE isn't great in an apartment. Because commercial service is almost always 3 phase, you'll only get 208v. That's 6.2 kW. In my townhouse, I have a 40A 240V circuit (50A at the breaker, but the 80% rule means the EVSE only puts out 40A). That's 10 kW. A 61% increase.
I did submit your issue to HN and now it's on the front page. I hope Facebook rectifies and I also hope Facebook engineers who hang around HN finally realize what harm their shitty employer does to the ecosystem of open source.
> You're missing the point.

Well, your claim is that the author has missed the point, because I just quoted the authors point and his intended purpose. So I guess we both agree.
I suggest removing the Wit.ai stuff from the issue. In this case less is more.
I, like 17% of the UK population (approx. 10 million) live in rural areas. I'm six miles from the nearest supermarket and shops and public transport is non-existent. (Once a day type of thing). Prior to lockdown and wfh I was commuting 200 miles a week in a 18 year old Diesel that I bought for £500.I couldn't cycle (too dangerous), walk (too far) or bus (no bus).

Round here many people drive Diesels for their economy (11% extra energy per gallon compared to Petrol) though currently with the Diesel price premium over Petrol being roughly 11% more that's no longer true but diesel engines do last longer.

I'm not opposed to EVs but I don't think there'll be cheap ones like my Diesel if ever or at least for a long long time. And no one has said about future taxes on EVs. All that ICE fuel tax revenue will have to be replaced as it dwindles away. The 800 LB Gorilla in the room that no one mentions is "pay as you drive" I suspect.
Can confirm. "Can't exit vim" memes were what introduced me to vim. Though as a primarily windows user, I don't use it much.
Genuinely shocked by this question. There is no part of the data science stack that is in any way settled. Even more broadly I don’t think statistical best practice is at all established, or at least well distributed.

You haven’t even missed the boat in terms of being able to make money off raw buzzwords and zero skills.

At the very basic technical level, there’s infinite work to be done optimising machine learning systems. This includes not just the fashionable issues of faster more accurate (or even less accurate in terms of floating point!) deep learning, but also moving Bayesian approaches like MCMC to multiple cores and GPUs.

There’s infinite work to be done on finding the right topology for a machine learning system. This applies not just to neural network layers but also to traditional stats (i.e. multiverse analysis).

There’s infinite work to be doing in understanding, cleaning and preparing datasets. Something as clunky as tidyverse can’t be close to the final form here. We’ve only just started talking about feature stores etc.

There’s infinite work to be done improving notebooks, integrating better software engineering practise into the workflow but also in terms of productionisation of models created therein.

All this is just platform stuff as well. It doesn’t even touch on the fact that businesses everywhere are terrible at formulating questions to be answered by stats, terrible at communicating those answers and terrible at even knowing this is a valuable endeavour in the first place.

I cannot imagine a boat harder to miss.
I recommended mewe.com to conservative friends as an alternative to Facebook but some of them wouldn't have anything to do with saying parler.com was the only alternative according to their talking heads and I gave up. I actually quit bothering answering those friends texts after I told them they were just being conservative sycophants. They weren't happy with that but they needed to hear it from someone. Trump really has brainwashed a large swathe of people to his erratic braindead life path.
Depression comes from sadness about events occurring in your life that you can not control or from when you got what you thought you always wanted and it turned out to not make you happy.

While it is possible to numb the pain with mindful thoughts or even medicine. And these have their place to lead us to an even better solution. The underlying issue will remain. But there is a master, someone in control. If you can, relinquish your life to the unseen hand. Look humbly to Jesus, who is Lord, and he won't turn you away.
Where do I see all patches neatly organized in threads, ready to be open as a timeline feed? Anything that involves custom filters or scripting an e-mail client is not easier nor more efficient than a web UI made for purpose.

How do I make a minor adjustment to a patch as a response to feedback without resending the whole thing? Anything more complicated than git commit && git push to my remote clone is not easier nor more efficient than the status quo.

These are just two off the top of my head. PRs as a code contribution approach can be improved upon, but mailing lists are not better at all for small projects and are only situationally better for bigger ones.

I have yet to meet a funded startup (YC or otherwise) that wouldn’t match the cash component of salary to within $20k of a FAANG salary+RSU schedule, so long as you have said offer in hand when negotiating (and thus, the equity becomes much more of potential bonus than lottery ticket you depend on ). Maybe pre-seed-stage startups pay much less, but I really haven’t run into any issues around feeling like I’m missing out on significant salary benefits, so FIRE seems to still hold.

External validation and PR — eh. My own experience differs, in tech and outside of tech. Personally, way back when, I turned down multiple Ivies to attend a small liberal arts college relatively few have heard about and have absolutely no regrets — people who have actually affected my life have heard of it, and I think it’s gotten me to where I am much faster and easier than going the conventional route.

> Vim is special because it's what we've all agreed on as a standard for modal editing.

Well I didn't vote for you...

In all seriousness, Vim's keybinds are only popular because no one has really tried to make a good modal editor with different bindings. It's prohibitively difficult to change the bindings in Vim, and prohibitively difficult to change muscle memory, but I still wish that I had a good modal editor that didn't resemble Vi.

It's a similar story with keyboards and qwerty.

Submitted this here as the issue first got raised in another submission I participated in (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25100810).

Let me guess how this will go

1. This issue will get traction on HN and maybe Twitter

2. Facebook engineers responsible will apologize, tell us they meant no harm

3. Facebook will change the name of the project and give it back to it's rightful owner, maybe even reinstate their Facebook account (although unlikely)

4. In 3-6 months the very same thing will happen and we'll go back to step 1

Hopefully at one point the engineers at Facebook (at least the ones that hang around HN) will realize what their employer does to the open source ecosystem and finally leave the company. This is not the first case, and will not be the last case of similar things happening. But when you're getting a large salary that is hard to get elsewhere, I guess it's really hard to leave.

Edit: HNers please! Don't fill the issue with any more comments as it's likely to be locked and not really achieve anything more than that (specifically looking at you " dsignr")
The point I made was regarding electricity usage in california from 1975 until now and how that comparison to the rest of the country isn't valid because it's a bias measure. In 1975 everyone who wanted climate control didn't have it, and that slowly changed to everyone being able to afford year round climate control. That drove huge growth in energy demands in most of the country. In that scenario we would certainly expect per capita energy usage to increase faster than population growth.

Your original claim about California doesn't hold because it's bias.
That signature usually takes years of preparation and negotiation...

I hesitate to write that I am depressed after reading so many tragic and heartbreaking comments... My everyday life just seems so good in comparison.

I've recently graduated from a university and I have my first full-time SWE job as a backend developer. Although I really like my job and I can barely imagine a better workplace, I really dread my everyday life.

Working 8+ hours every day is soul-crushing to me, and with all other errands and a good sleeping schedule, I barely have time and energy for the other things in life that I enjoy. Dating, working out, being social, finding a place to live, as well as being quarantined is just overwhelming with a full-time job, I feel.

Since I've been getting negative work reviews, I called a career counselor. When he said that "I got to man up and prioritize my work above everything else", I was severely depressed and suicidal.

Hi HackerNews!

This is a test project I hacked together to see how efficiently I could build an explorable, procedurally generated 3D world. I'd previously tested some infinite terrain ideas in Three.JS but the resulting code was hundreds of kilobytes and slowed down my computer significantly.

I learned the basics of vertex and fragment shaders for this project, and realized that infinite terrain could be rendered efficiently by creating a fixed plane mesh and modulating its vertices with the vertex shader using a noise function that takes into account player movement. The resulting demo app runs smoothly on my laptop and mobile device.

git commit && git push also re-sends the entire thing, assuming you rebased, and you should very definitely be rebasing.
