First, allotting an amount of time to delivering value is an anti-pattern in itself.

Second, Agile doesn't ask people to estimate ("respond to change over follow a plan"). Management asks people to estimate.

Jeff Patton says it best in User Story Mapping, the "client-vendor anti-pattern"

> It's the client's job to know what he wants, and explain the details to the vendor. It's the vendor's job to listen, understand, and then think through a technical approach for delivering what the client asked for. The vendor then gives her estimate - which in software lingo actually means "commitment" ..

> The real tragedy is the client understands their problem better than she's able to predict what will solve it. But in the anti-pattern, conversations about problems and solutions are replaced by discussions and agreements about requirements. No one wins.

> Try showing up at your doctor's office and giving her your "requirements". Tell her the prescriptions you'd like written and the operations you'd like scheduled. If she's nice, she'll smile and say, "That's interesting, tell me where it hurts."

> In my head, I picture a continuum where on one side is the word waiter, and on the other is the word doctor. Try to make your working relationships more like doctor-patient and less like waiter-diner.
HN is owned by an American company of course, but it is not a majority American community. The last time I ran the numbers, about 50% were in the US, and that of course includes many immigrants and expats.

Gout is a metabolic disorder period. Excessive sugar in barley syrups from alcohol, and soda pop, and even excessive amount of starch in diet lead to metabolic purine synthesis. The metabolites produce purines in the process of storing away all this sugar, additionally causing inflation in the body the more your BMI is excessive. loose weight and the flair ups reduce, the numbers might not change. Been dealing with gout since I was 28, but had symptoms since around 23. Also have super flat feet making things worse. I take 300mg of allopurinol every day.

I think you have a pretty misguided view of the developing world and their buying power. There are a lot of middle-income countries with reasonable spending power, but lousy infrastructure, in-between the extremes of the undeveloped Congo (which yes, will take some time to get Starlink penetration) and residents of a NYC condo.

SPMT's are one of the more amazing things in the modern era. We are using them to move all kinds of things once thought not feasible, from bridges to rockets.
I have written Rails for 8 years and Elixir for 3.
Phoenix is essentially what Rails should have been.

It has the upsides of Rails without the connected antipatterns, native technical debt.

I can also confirm that there isn't a need to learn BEAM gotchas (which i did learn). One of my ex colleagues is a junior dev who has been using elixir for 3 years now and didn't need to use those special aspects of BEAM.

As a Ruby expert, Elixir is substantially easier, learning BEAM is a joke (and very instructive) compared to learning the entirety of the Ruby object model.

I can't think of reasons to use Rails nowdays. If you are in the CRUD apps market, use Postgrest or similar products. As for the rest sure, choose any language you want, the framework is way less relevant (arguably: detrimental) at that point.

The industry has proven extensively that for non-trivial projects, Rails is damaging due to ActiveRecord.

I look at classes as holders of mutable state. While a closure can technically hold mutable state, subjectively I feel there's a convention that closure captures are often treated as constant (mainly by association with the functional paradigm).
Thank you for sharing this. I'll definitely be more aggressive managing my gout.
The reality is that people are not wrong when they act as if Black people in the U.S. are more likely to commit violent crimes. Black people are ~20% of the population, but commit ~55% of the murders, making for a per capita murder offense rate among Black Americans that is ~5x (yes, 500%) of the rate for the remainder.

That said, people pay way too much attention to murder and violent crime in public discourse and in their private lives for the most part. Sure, Black people may murder at 5x the rate of non-Black people, but murder is really, really rare. What about we worry about, I dunno, diabetes? Education? Population growth? Climate change?
The only thing matters here is the trade deal between Japan and China.
Cuba is an abysmal failure. People have their occupations set by the government, depend on meager monthly state rations, and have almost no disposal income for consumer purchases.

We certainly should be but I think we’re so used to the crazy advances over the last 30 years these things become mundane. I mean is it really not just as amazing that we have neural nets running on machines in our pockets when these were considered computationally too expensive for doing basic handwriting processing on super computers a couple decades ago?
You're right, that is hilarious. That media source grossly misunderstands martial law, states of emergency, and presidential authority. If Trump tries to declare the election null and void, that's simply a coup attempt on his part, nothing more. He's welcome to try it, and I look forward to the US Marshals responding accordingly.

If that's indicative of where you're getting your information, I understand why this is the information you keep presenting.
I wasn't actually aware of the distinction. I think you're right, that what I mainly dislike are DI containers. If DI just means "passing some value to something for it to use later" - which would even include currying, really - then yeah, I suppose I don't have a problem with DI/IoC themselves.
since we're being pedantic about fractions, I should point out that your figure for c is off by about three orders of magnitude.
I think the size of North America in general is underappreciated.
> Really, most modern Linux distros are pretty god damn nice.

This has been my experience recently as well. For laptops at least, as long as you buy a system with known good Linux support, the vast majority of the common complaints I see are not really valid.

If you need macOS or Windows to run a specific application exclusive to that platform, great. If your software all runs on Linux, you can gain a lot of freedom and privacy for little effort these days.
Sure, this is one solution. But I suspect the 'culprits' use vegetarian because pescatarian isn't a well known term and invites more questions than it answers.

Vegetarian sums up a large chunk of their preferences, even if it isn't accurate.
> But what's wrong with Catholic school? They have a tradition of being quite secular and open to different worldviews.

I went to Catholic school, and politically, they certainly seem to be for restricting other people’s freedoms (see abstinence only sex education, gay marriage, and abortion). My whole sex education at the age of 14 or so was a slideshow of genital herpes or sores and “don’t do it”.

There’s also the whole decades long organizational support of child molestation issue that one might want to avoid supporting.

You just can't change the wallpaper away from black, and there is a notice displayed on it.
Expanding in this - if you've ever glanced at a ticking clock, and the second hand seemed frozen for a moment, that was the brain backfilling the gap (after the fact!) left by the saccade.

I was aware of the phenomenon (from personal experience) but not fo the cause, but there was a post here relatively recently that went into the details. Apologies that I can't now find it.
2: Umm, wouldn't that be equivalent to the same trust voters place when dropping a ballot inside a ballot box? Is that specific to the voting machine or broader?

I'm not sure myself, just asking. I don't know the sound or experience of dropping ballots into a box, since (for good or bad) paper ballots were already extinct when I started to vote...
You bring up a good point that I never addressed the case where setting a property to a value and getting it could return a different value - this is something I overlooked, and I would say absolutely needs to be true. I also didn't do a good job restricting computation, selecting time complexity as a metric instead of literally anything else - there are far better ways of doing that.

There's more to properties than just syntax-sugar as I initially said (such as being a single unit), and I think I've built more of a case for why using property-based getters/setters over fields are better that working with fields directly. If the syntax sugar isn't your cup of tea but you agree with using methods over fields, I think that's the limit of my argument here.
> What he's asking for here is for Democrats to accept his lack of opposition to social liberalism, and bend themselves even further towards his fiscal conservatism.

Yes, exactly. The thing is, as a putative libertarian he ought to have been supporting socially liberal policies (and candidates) all along.

Merely offering a 'lack of opposition' isn't really any change at all, as he's never opposed it.
Right, that's also my guess. What I meant was that their document describing the v4 tests[1] mentions SSE and AVX, while the v5 version[2] does not. Does it mean that the v5 tests don't cover them? I found find it surprising for a benchmarking tool but they really were mentioned before and now they're not, hence my question.

If indeed v5 tests are not particularly about specialized performance but more about real-world use cases (e.g. PDF rendering, SQLite, image compression as others have mentioned) then running Geekbench v4 on M1+Rosetta would give a comparison of emulated x86 without vector instructions versus native x86 with all of its modern capabilities. Now if the M1 wins that…

Aren't the major HFTs in some cases just a few blocks away already?
iOS definitely does this, optimizing for the different supported devices. I hope they start doing that with future Mx macs.
To be fair, this isn't their first shot at ARM processors, they've been at it for longer than a decade (Apple A4 was launched in early 2010)

The AMD64 "emulation" on the other hand is brand new.
I guess there should be a difference between binary code translation and emulation. Emulation gives you a feeling that you are doing it instruction by instruction, but here from the benchmark, there are tasks heavily relied on system provided API, and behind those API calls are highly optimized native code.

> Some scientists point to the dramatic rise in rates of obesity — from 13.4 percent of adults in 1980 to 42.4 percent in 2017-18, again per the NHANES — since excess weight depresses kidney efficiency, and to the likely not unrelated introduction, in 1967, of high-fructose corn syrup, which can cause the body to produce higher levels of uric acid, and its wholesale embrace in the early 1980s by the American food industry and then the world. Once gout was confined largely to Western civilization (with some outliers, like the Mongol ruler Kublai Khan); now its ravages are global.

High fructose corn syrup seems to me the strongest contender for "single biggest cause" – it ties in nicely with the obesity epidemic, and the two surely snowball together. That doesn't mean that other factors (the same as 18th century's) can't bring gout on, like a comment elsewhere here reports, but I just cannot believe that high fructose corn syrup's ubiquitous stance in our food isn't met with some pernicious and hard-to-trace effects on our health.
> There can, I’m surprised no one has implemented this:

The reason is you're inappropriately applying an technical solution to a social problem.

You also make at least one critical error:

> As you contribute to thoughtful discussion, as determined by the diversity and ratio of up/down arrows

Upvotes/downvotes pretty much never measure "thoughtfulness," because for them to do so would require a level of social cohesion that would probably make upvotes/downvote unnecessary.
After attempting to get the username “snazz” on GitHub, I learned that people definitely can be active even when their public profile shows no signs of life. It’s very nice that GitHub offers this ability, however.

"No one is willing to lol."

No one is willing to laugh out loud. I don't know what that means?
This is in response to the issue last week where slowness of Apple's OCSP responders caused hangs in apps launching. It was a bad look for privacy-conscious Apple especially considering that basic OCSP queries are unencrypted HTTP requests.

In my post (https://blog.cryptohack.org/macos-ocsp-disaster) I argued that OCSP was inherently a poor way to perform certificate revocation in this scenario, and that an approach based on Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) could be preferable. Regardless, it looks like Apple might be doubling down on OCSP but encrypting the requests, or possibly adding a new protocol altogether.
Rights can already taken away from people who are declared legally incompetent [1]. Similar procedures could be used to give rights to monkeys that can prove mental competence (e.g., are able to meaningfully communicate and show an understanding of money and property).

> depending on what they value

And therein lies the rub. We had the big house (that we had to clean more often and pay more to heat, cool, and maintain), the huge yard with lots of space (that we had to spend hours every weekend dealing with, along with the cost), the two cars (with their own costs and hassles), and so on.

What we didn't have was the respect of our community, or at least the recognition that families like ours should be full members of society. It's fucking awful to hear your governor on TV crowing about how immigrants are "ruining the state," or that the latest environmental-disaster of a highway project is "true freedom."

No amount of money can ever make up for that. Where we live now, we still get to save, we still are able to travel (well, pandemic notwithstanding), and we need not drive everywhere to do it and we feel accepted--or at least somewhere between begrudgingly tolerated and utterly adored--by the government of our state.

I used to optimize for cost; no longer.

> So in my mind they're as "private" as Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, or Boeing; meaning sure, the government doesn't own the company shares, but they are de-facto extensions of the US government and would die if the government wanted them to cease to exist.

Ridiculous, as numerous industries depend from investment in Space anyway to launch satellites - private companies would survive even if there was no government involvment.
China has deficit with Australia NZ, Japan and Korea. Besides with dual circulation strategy China probably will be more open importing from South East Asia. Therefore, any attempts of decoupling or supply chain realignment will target South East Asia first in which China has a significant influence.
There were several caveats in RCEP that were huge red flags domestically. For example , Diary & associated products from NZ to India , Chinese goods getting re-routed through Vietnam (Manufacture a shoe in China , just label it in Vietnam and route to India) etc. that were a problem.
It is worrying that Chinese influence is grappling ASEAN economies , most times it is the worry that they won't play fair with smaller trade partners. For once , a lot of people were happy in my state the agreement was not signed.
There is a vast difference between being a government agency and having the government as a customer. NASA has no say on SpaceX's engineering practices, the exact specifications beyond specified in the contract, or whether or not a senator's favourite supplier is used for certain parts. At the end of the day, SpaceX can choose to spend its profits however it pleases, whether that it on a stainless steel giant rocket or digging tunnels because the CEO is tired of sitting in traffic, without needing approval from any politician.

You also would do well to read up on the details of SpaceX's financing. Private capital has contributed several billions to its funding - just earlier this year, they raised $1.9 billion. Several projects were entirely privately funded, including Falcon 1 and its engines, Falcon Heavy and until recently, Starship. Government funding is of a similar magnitude of course, but it is disingenuous to say it comprises the entirety of SpaceX's finances.

As another poster said, just NASA's choice of using commercial operators (including Boeing) was hugely controversial, drawing skepticism even from Neil Armstrong and other astronauts. It's a massive departure from the previous approach where NASA would design the overall vehicle and subcontract portions of it to different subcontractors; instead, they're paying for a complete package that is owned by a private corporation that designed everything on their own down to the spacesuits.
I posted this under another reply, but yes, I didn't actually realize the distinction of "containers" and how that's just one specialization of the pattern. Containers appear to be the main thing that bothers me, particularly when the container implementation requires that all injectable entities are classes and not functions. It creates this "viral" effect where nearly everything you implement ends up having to be wrapped up in a class, even when there's no reason to do so other than the injection container.
Those features are interesting but I fail to see how the headline is nothing more than misleading.

I opened the link expecting to read about some legitimate issue with iOS 14. The entire article is about one updated app on iOS 14, the health app.

The title should be "The new iOS 14 health app is driving me mad".

Also, I'm not clear on why the author wrote the post. It seems like an admission of being obsessive compulsive.

Just ignore the new features in the updated health app. Problem solved?

The paper may not offer insightful prescriptions for experienced engineers, but can work like this still be useful for informing future studies in a meaningful way? The authors repeatedly note the widespread inadequacies of the current research landscape. (To anyone familiar with the literature, is their assessment accurate?) In my eyes, the message is that the paper represents an incremental step in the direction of a truly detailed understanding of the factors involved in developer productivity. Even if there's a broad intersection between the answers one would get from taxi drivers and from computer scientists, the distance between the two fields makes that an unexpected result, which should prompt us to change how we think about computer science* and/or how we think about studying it.

Yep, agreed. The problem, minor though it is, is that there are a bunch of people that should refer to themselves as Pescatarian, but don't.

I suspect that they refer to themselves as vegetarians because it's simpler and encapsulates a large chunk of their preferences. It just causes confusion when they go to the waiter. "I'm vegetarian....Oh, I'll have the fish"
