> Wrong. It seems clear you all like making assumptions and treating them as unshakeable truth.

Can you explain, then, why 1) your original post was devoid of any such language, and 2) you dismissed my suggestion, which added some, as being likely to cynically have the opposite effect of what was intended?

I get what you're saying. People often do couch cynicism and trolling in pleasantries. Which makes it difficult to appear genuine when asking a tough question like that. But that means you have to try extra hard if you want results, not give up entirely and go full autism on someone that clearly isn't going to respond well to that.
Chuck Yeager's Advanced Flight Simulator for me, one of the first games I played as a kid after a couple Infocom games I would play with my Dad.

Starlink is operating at mmwave frequencies directly in the ionosphere, which is electrically connected to the ground. A small current passes through each of us, and that current is now being polluted with unnatural oscillations which can affect living tissues, especially the mitochondria. As a result insects are dying, birds are falling out the sky, etc. This is a serious environmental and health problem.

Agreed, especially when you consider that the same basic elements that make up our solar system are widespread throughout the universe. My guess is that microbial life isn't even particularly rare in other solar systems, we just haven't evolved enough to have noticed yet. The search for intelligent life seems to be predicated on the fact that intelligence is basically the same as what homo sapiens does, circa 2020 AD. I'm sure there's a vast array of other types of intelligence out there that we can't even grasp, and thus haven't been looking for.

> doing things that would be even the simplest of queries becomes a project in writing what are effectively bad performance joins via random http APIs

In some ways, is GraphQL trying to slap a fresh coat of paint on what is otherwise is a bad problem under the hood? At my employer, we're trying to adopt it, but we've never addressed the underlying performance issues of the microservices, and now the slowness is quite apparent with the GraphQL wrapper tier.

This isn't a diss to GraphQL. The queries are awesome to write. The developer experience of writing / being the client of a GraphQL server is extremely excellent. But I feel I might not be alone in a journey that is playing out to be a mediocre implementation because we are avoiding the core problem.
Note that nowadays the preferred way to handle null pointers in APIs is the `Option<NonNull>` type. This unfortunately wasn't available in Rust 1.0.

Sadly I don't have reading suggestions. I've kind of gathered details over time.

My own "redesign" is just to look at how homes used to work. Wattle and daub, hogan, pueblo, timber frame, log cabin, long house, clochán, crannog, igloo, walpini, adobe, brick. They each have pros and cons, but they work best for where they were built and the needs of the people that lived there. They adapted solutions for heating/cooling, pest control, weather resistance, cooking, storage, etc that fit their purpose. As far as I know, none of these homes ever had to deal with annoyances like mold or carbon monoxide. But then again the downsides could be severe in densely-populated urban areas; entire cities could be razed overnight by fire and strong winds!

Before modern homes were redesigned to take advantage of supply chain efficiencies, timber frame and stone foundation were common in the US. Before air conditioning, homes were designed for where they sat to take the seasons into account. A central corridor of air could be funneled by opening doors or windows on either side of the house, rapidly cooling or heating it, and windows and shutters could lock in whatever the temperature was - but this would be a bad idea on a humid day! A stone foundation acted as a mini thermal battery, and some building materials were incredibly good insulators. Also common were fireplaces and living quarters in the center of the home; shut all the doors to keep your room toasty warm, or open them up to warm the house for company. There was no vapor barrier, no sheeting; just nail some shingles to the frame and stuff whatever you can into the walls for insulation, or build walls out of a composite like mud and stick. In wet, hot areas, you had lots of porches and big awnings so you could stay outside with a fan in the shade.

There's many other old-school techniques we could be using, but then homes become more expensive as no contractor knows how to build them, or we've literally done away with all the natural resources and now they have to be acquired at great expense. Not to mention of course, zoning might have made it all illegal anyway. In many ways we've engineered ourselves into a corner.

> Should we allow a factory in Indiana to avoid environmental regulation if they just pay a 30% tariff?

There are problems that tariffs are a solution to, like currency manipulation. Lack of environmental rules is not really one of those problems.

> The answer is to ban them just like we should ban U.S.-made products that don't follow the rules.

The real problem is that there are two problems, which currently sort of cancel out.

The first problem is that the existing rules in the US are effective but prohibitively burdensome. The second problem is that the same rules don't apply to China. Businesses solve the first problem by invoking the second.

We can't solve just one. If you imposed the existing rules on China, things would become unreasonably expensive. If you stopped imposing them on the US, there would be as much pollution in the US as there is in China. We need more efficient rules. Which is hard. Worse, it's not sexy and nobody wants to do the work.

But in a sense we can have one solve the other in the opposite direction too. Apply the same rules to other countries and they can't be avoided by leaving the US, which then creates pressure to fix the rules so that they're not prohibitively inefficient, since they can no longer be avoided.
Ask Australia about China's recent embargo, and then argue that embargoes aren't used anymore.

Depending on where your office is, you might consider the commute from South San Jose unacceptable.
If we look at set theory the NULL set is a valid set. The problem with NULL is often it's just treated as zero or if passed to a language that does not have NULL it's pretty often to just treat it as Zero. This bit equivalence between zero and NULL zero is often what you see lead to problems.

It's why for instance with GPS coordinates NULL island exists.

However, errors aside NULL is a perfectly logical value to encounter or need.

You're the one who said "integration test".

A single DB query is normally something that _can_ be trivially unit-tested. But if the DB query is split across half a dozen complex services, suddenly it can _only_ be integration tested. Which usually means slow iteration and no local testing.

I feel that this cynical jab is not only set as a flimsy straw man but also adds absolutely nothing to the discussion.

Independent services need to have their own independent database. Simple. Each service has its bounded context, persists it in its database, and just runs. It matters nothing what data the bounded context holds or what your opinions are on microservices.

> I believe they saw weird traffic from their DHCP server, ...

That makes sense.

When the cable modem issued a DHCP request, the CMTS would have been configured to insert some additional information (a "circuit-id") into the DHCP request as it relayed it to the DHCP server.

The short version is that the "competent tech" looked at the logs from the DHCP server, which would have showed that the "same" cable modem (i.e., MAC address) was physically connected to either 1) two different CMTS boxes or 2) two different interfaces of the same CMTS.

How would one cable modem be physically present in two different locations at the same time? Obviously, it wouldn't.

At that point, either 1) there are two cable modems with the same burned in address or 2) one of the two cable modems is cloning/spoofing its MAC address. Which one of those is more likely?

(If you're interested in the details, try "DHCP Option 82" as your search term.)

> In everyday life, I definitely notice that people do not take say, fire alarm seriously and act quickly enough. Don't be a deer caught in the spotlight, forge your own path and take these things seriously your life may depend on it (even if its 1% chance that that alarm is a real one).

Problem with things like fire alarms is they go off _so_ often, yet are almost never a true alarm.

In my experience, it's not even 1%. I've heard fire alarms tested monthly or quarterly for years. My own smoke detector at home used to go off regularly. I've heard literally hundred of "THE BUILDING IS ON FIRE EVACUATE OH SHIT" alarms, and never once seen even a small fire.

Well, that's a lie, I lit a reasonably-sized oil fire on my stove top one day (left some good scorch marks on the ceiling and stuff). No alarm went off.

Hell, one time the small apartment building I lived in had the building-wide alarm go off which did convince everyone to vacate--probably because it had never gone off before. I ran a roll-call out on the front lawn and accounted for every unit and had every single person reporting that there was no fire in their unit. The only common areas were the hallways people'd just exited through. The fire department cleared it in about two minutes and told us we could re-enter with the alarms blaring.

I'd be surprised to find someone that, through school fire drills, random smoke detectors, testing and malfunctioning of building alarms, etc have not been totally desensitized to these alerts.

If you get an alert every day from your intrusion detection system saying "SOMEONE'S IN YOUR NETWORK STEALING YOUR FILES!" and never once find that to be the case, eventually you're going to start ignoring the alerts.

That said, yes -- if I smell smoke/see fire, if I'm on a boat and water is coming up around my ankles, I'm not gonna just sit there and die because someone says it's okay.

They touch on why they're different a bit, but it's kinda subtle.

foo(int? i) {
if (i != null) {
print(i + 1);
}
}

In that block, you can see that the compiler can understand that the null check on `i` means that it's safe to use `i` as an int within. Likewise, I can call `foo(int? i)` with `var something = 1`. `something` is an `int` and all `int`s are also `int?`s (but `int?`s aren't `int`s without guarding against nulls). By contrast, if a method takes `Optional<Integer>` then you have to wrap every `Integer` you have to call that method (with something like `Optional.of(something)`).

The author might be wrong about Swift being an example of Solution 1 (looking at Swift's nullability syntax).

But the point is that nullable types provide a bit more power because they're not just a data-structure, but a language feature. If you look at the source of `Option` in Rust, it's an enum like `Result` or (kinda) anything you could write rather than a language feature. Rust has built-in some things like the `?` "try" operator for special enums like `Option` and `Result` to unwrap them (or error), but it isn't quite the same as the null-guards in Dart/Kotlin and you still need to wrap them for functions like `Some(myVar)` rather than being able to pass `myVar` directly for an `Option<T>` parameter.

Again, they are almost the same, but they do talk about reasons for choosing Solution 2 over Solution 1. In Rust, you pattern-match like `match myVar { Some => x(); None => y() }` which is very functional, but they wanted something that felt like traditional null checks with conditionals. They note that nullable types are basically erased at runtime - an `int?` at runtime is either something like `7` or `null`. At compile time, you've checked that you're never assigning a `null` to an `int`, but the runtime doesn't need to know anything about it because the compiler has checked everything. Rust's enums aren't just a single special case, but something that you could make more complicated. Maybe you want a `SchrodingersResult` which could have `Success`, `Err`, or `Huh`. Ultimately, something like `Option` is an algebraic data type that you can compute off of - ex. pattern-match. The runtime needs to know that it's an `Option` because you can write code for that.

It is almost the same. The question is whether you create a one-off language feature for nullability and get advantages like knowing that any `int` can be assigned to an `int?` without needing to wrap it or whether you decide to create a type that works like any other type in your system like Java's `Optional`. Both are reasonable ways to go, but they have subtle differences and the article outlines a lot of those differences.
You make it sound like every mis-prediction could result in death.
I thought that the solution was posted in one of the many articles about this. Something based on numbers/digits embedded in the words of the poem (e.g. one=>1 too=>2 etc), and the digits wrap around the end of the poem, but you're supposed to start at the word "begin".
