Adapting a movie from a book is such an extrapolating exercise, I am not surprised some stereotypes are amplified.
Work bought me a new M1 Mac Pro with 16GB RAM and I’m not feeling the speed whatsoever. My dock causes repeatable crashes waking from sleep. Browsing feels slow and laggy, with things like the 1password add-on visibly loading in parts when opened.

The only things I can think of are that it’s because I used the Migration Assistant to go from my old MacBook Air to this, or that I’ve somehow acquired a lemon. I’m going to try wiping it clean and starting fresh, but beyond that it’s in refund territory.

I really want to be wrong about it, but I’m sceptical of the good press at this point given my own experience.
It should be the speed of culture progressing. I'd be happier with something like 10 years, and paying exponentially increasing fees to renew it past that mark in exchange for keeping culture locked up.

Trademarks? That's a consumer protection service and for a small percent of profits on marked items plus a flat fee should be allowed.
If you care about the truth, it's your responsibility to find it, not to demand that I feed it to you. You are on the Internet, after all, and since DNS has yet to be censored, you can still seek alternative sources.

Now, you place the burden of proof on me, assuming that Twitter is in the right by censoring information and demanding that I prove that their censorship is wrong. But why don't you place the burden of proof on Twitter? Why do you apologize for censorship?

In your other comments, you say that "Only China can stop China," and you say that the U.S. mustn't respond to cyber attacks by China, Russia, and Iran, or those nations might escalate, so we must look the other way when these nations infiltrate and attack us.

Well the storage is also integrated and most tasks use at least CPU + storage so those will benefit too. Not to mention if you don't use your GPU much then the memory can now be dynamically allocated to the CPU instead of remaining with the GPU. Intel has integrated graphics cards that share system RAM but that RAM is slower than traditional graphics RAM so they have terrible performance.
“Better be dead like Java than alive like Rust”

Joke aside, while I don't like typical Java frameworks' complexity and haven't done any Java in seven years for that reason, calling java dead because “everybody is using microservices” and “why bother with performance when you can just run more workers” is a bit ridiculous.

First of all, in practice “everybody uses PHP” is still way closer to the reality. The microservices hype train is real, but it's far from ubiquitous in real life and the fashion will probably be dead long before Java (I'm not saying microservices are bad per se, but it's way overused, by companies who have zero scalability issues and adds a lot of engineering complexity).

Then there's cost: deploying 3 times more machines because you use Python on a high traffic service is a good way to give some margin to the cost-killers in the next LBO.
I'm playing on the older Xbox One X (series X still impossible to find), but my experience is roughly the same.

It's buggy, there are sometimes crashes/game breaking bugs, but the autosave makes recovery easy. The world and story are really good and make up for it.
I would not agree that Go is a good replacement for Java Microservices. I would suggest looking into something like Quarkus (https://quarkus.io) and if Java is to verbose for someone, she/he can checkout Kotlin (https://kotlinlang.org) which is 100% interoperable with Java but clean, modern and pragmatic. With Quarkus you have a very powerful but simple framework that out of the box (GraalVM) can be compiled also to a single binary if you need very fast startup and very low memory consumption.

Go evangelises simplicity but when someone has to use it in a bigger project the lang is very cumbersome. You don't have any functional programming features like filter, map, find to manipulate collections. The not null (nil) safety or the magic with interfaces{} does it make non safe especially compared to modern languages like Kotlin,Swift which have the notion of nullability build in the language itself. Dependency Injection support is very limited. I think Go is hyped because of the excellent single binary feature which you have nowadays via GraalVM also for Java, Kotlin as I described above.
HIV fits that list ?
While I do like me some good meta-reasoning, at least I have an argument for shorter function names:
Short names are read in O(1) while longer are O(n) (unless the name can be simplified as “the function with the long name”)

Cool, remember reading about your one item store. What was the escrow fee?
No, people want reversible transactions.

They want transactions where they pay someone, and that person doesn't send the goods they can reverse the charge.

They want to be able to correct erroneous or fraudulent transfers.

These are all things that the normal financial system does well, and crypto systems absolutely cannot.

You cannot force someone to return a crypto currency transfer. No matter what the case: error, fraud, or theft. Even the latter is feasible within the regular financial system.
Being ethical and being “ethical” according to professional expert ethicists is also not the same thing. If I learned anything this year, it’s that opinion of professional experts at ethics should not be considered when deciding who gets last piece of cake, much less in life and death scenarios.

If you have enough Apple devices to set up and configure Sign In With Apple, and you're interested in using the account with non-Apple devices, then using the Reset Password process to have a password assigned to your account generally has not — in my experience — impacted Sign In With Apple, which simply continues to work regardless. I have been able to use this process to sign in across Apple and Windows and etc without difficulty.

What's uncertain here is whether each third-party will correctly handle this workflow. I can't decide if it's worked every time because I'm lucky or because there's a regulation somewhere in the Sign In With Apple terms that requires it. I respect that this uncertainty may not be acceptable to everyone.
You didn't even respond to a single thing I said. You just repeated your original claim that, "Capitalism is failing them." That's tantamount to propaganda--keep repeating yourself until people believe you.

You sound just like a politician with your empty, alarmist assertions ("failing! urgently address!"). Are you a Sanders staffer? I mean, it would explain your comments.
If anyone is curious how he broke his neck:

"It’s actually a really strange event. I didn’t actually fall or hit anything hard. I had a pain behind my shoulder for a few days and really noticed it while trying to climb. Got worse progressively for about 3 days. On the 4th day, I tried to play a game and went to climb and through my had up and heard a pop. Went to the hospital and my c7 vertebrae was displaced and fractured.

So this is what the doctor tried to explain to me: the muscle /ligaments connected to the vertebrae were under stress from a strained muscle behind my shoulder. The strain was so bad it tugged hard enough on my vertebrae to cause it to crack. He said it was a very strange event and does not see it happen often."
I would not choose Go, the language is simply to simple and not modern at all. You will still have to check for nil values ( see Kotlin, Swift for alternative) or you have to use old for loops to manipulate cumbersome collections types like slices instead of having functional paradigms build into the language ( again Kotlin, Swift, Java Streams etc). A good alternative if already using JVM would be some of the newer generation frameworks like Quarkus (https://quarkus.io), Helidon etc
The universe is so big it seems highly likely
I had the same idea and was convinced by a biologist, that his is a very bad idea. To be able to spread, this vaccine-virus needs to infect the people vaccinated. Any infection is dangerous, as it means the virus is multiplying in your body until the immune system hopefully takes hold of it. What happens if it doesn't? This happens with traditional vaccines all the time, but the consequence is only that you are not acquiring immunity, no other harm done.

The other point is, you have made a completely new human-transmissable virus. How do you reliably prevent it from mutating into something more dangerous?

Feels like Xbox doesn't have the best track history when it comes to releasing game tie-in console bundles.

They made a Fallout 76 + Xbox One X console bundle back in the day, where the console was the same basic console as the regular edition, but came with a Fallout 76 download code. And since Fallout 76 flopped quite spectacularly, apparently this bundle was not very popular. And it was apparently so spectacularly unpopular that the Fallout 76 Xbox One X managed to retail for a full 62 euro less than the normal Xbox One X console by the end of it at one retailer at least (https://twitter.com/Mailia/status/1193539896704667648).

Well, maybe they made the right decision in this case by selling out the console before the game actually came out.

NYC to eliminate testing for admission to many selective middle and high schools
Just last night on the news they announced we were actually out of recession. The bounce back has been pretty good. Tourism is still fairly impacted. Most everything else feels pretty normal.

The lockdowns were worth it IMO. Especially now we see it ravaging the rest of the world becoming more and more severe. That just feels totally foreign to me since we only experienced a very mild outbreak initially, followed by a tiny one a bit later on.

NZ is a good place to be.
Unfortunately not. Being vaccinated doesn't stop you from having and transmitting the virus, only from getting sick. It won't be safe for you to see your friends until they have it too.
Probably not as unknown, but the smell in pools that I've always associated with chlorine is in fact the smell of some product when chlorine react with urine.

I wonder what other falsehoods I believe along the same lines. I'm sure there are plenty in the realm of software/hardware.

On the other hand, is there any difference between this kind of misconception and others? I feel there is. The observed correlation is very strong, and the wrong causal relationship is made based on assumptions that are extremely common. We sniff a thing, and what we sense is what we call that thing's smell. But again, this is probably a wrong conclusion very often (depending on how you want to define a "thing's smell"). If I smell a book, is it actually the book that smells or some kind of organic thing that grows on the paper? Is it meaningful to separate the two? </saturday morning philosophizing>

Oh I thought it was obvious that you don't want to rename a function after a 300 word paragraph. I didn't realize we need to get into that kind of semantics. My argument is that a sentence long function name of 10 words roughly is still a good function name. There's no hard rule here. Judgement is still qualitative The main point that I was arguing for is that this:

find_xy_coordinate_of_dogs_cats_and_baboons_in_picture

is a perfectly good function name. The poster I responded to disagrees with me and I was responding to that specifically.
Trying to decode this with examples:

> Not everything is an object (Ruby). Nor is everything a function (any FP), a string (Perl), a process (Elixir), an actor (Elixir), a value, a thunk, a message, a list (Clojure), a file (Unix), or an expression (Clojure). Not everything is data (Clojure), nor is everything code. Not everything is lazy (Haskell), immutable (Haskell), pure (Haskell), copyable, serializable, sortable, or transmissible over the network. goto is not the only control operator, and neither is call/cc.

Can you help me fill the missing ones?

It doesn't for me. I can't keep track of all the times I've been frustrated by a "final" class or a private variable somewhere that, were it public, I could have trivially solved my urgent business problem in time, with full awareness of the tech debt being incurred.

But I can't remember any time in the tens of thousands of lines of Python that I've written, where I had regretted consuming a variable somewhere.

So at this point, based on my experience, it all just sounds like paranoia to me that doesn't actually add value in practice. I think many of these "best practices" in Java, especially those coming from "Effective Java", are over-paranoid for most developers, and just create more problems than they solve. Being paranoid about API contracts makes sense if you are writing a widely-consumed library like those that Josh Bloch worked on, where the cost of changing consumers is prohibitively high. But when you are working on a class that has a handful of consumers, it really doesn't matter--just go update the consumers if you really need to (which you probably don't).
It's not. Ganja could mean either marijuana or "bald" depending on how you pronounce it. Not offensive or an insult which would "exclude 2 billion people" either way.

It will be controversial to say the least. Eliminating or reducing gifted / selective programs in the name of increasing equity or diversity.

Separately, I think that all things are solved if more + better schools are created to serve any growing population. This is almost purely a product of population growth competing for limited places. Grow the number of good school spots and the problem goes away.
> I've heard design patterns described as "missing language features" and when you look at the GoF book, many don't make sense in languages other than C++ because they're already built-in or unnecessary.

I've heard that statement before and it really never made any sense to begin with.

Design patterns describe higher-level concepts. Just because a higher level concept made its way into a standard library that doesn't male it go away, nor does it eliminate the need to reason and have higher level discussions involving it.

Take for example C#. Does it make sense to talk about event loops in C#? Or observers? Or callbacks? Because those are all design patterns, aren't they? Great, you don't need to add a lot of boilerplate code to get to use one, but you're still using the concept and reasoning about the system in terms of these patterns and their features and properties, right?

Just because I can buy a ready-made roof instead of having to cut down trees or buy the wood somewhere, that doesn't mean that a roof is no longer a roof.

I'll be the fly in the ointment here, the additional sand in your shorts, and say "This is why bare metal is better".

Bare metal doesn't have to be VM/containerless. Roll your own. But at least in this case, you're dealing with your own issues, with things not hidden and abstracted away, and at literally 1/100th to 1/10000th the cost of AWS.

And yes, that's with the hardware investment and wage costs rolled in.

I feel like AWS and others created some sort of one ring, and just reeled admins in, pulling them from the wild, so that with a shortage of greybeards, people can't find those with the 'sysadmin temperament', and are therefore stuck with cloud.

And it is indeed a specific temperament, to create stability, which means creating some constraint, yet to forge that constraint in the most effective way, whilst doing one's best to enable devs to work most effectively.

AWS has constraints, but because it's a wall of "this is the way external corp does it", it gets far less flack than the guy that smells like onions, when he says "we can't do this safely" or "this policy must be followed".

Yes, OK, this is a bit of a rant. Sorry.
Steve Jobs on using computers to work from home
I have not used Spring since 2009 (where I used it daily) and have been using Java full time throughout. In that time I have written a lot of code and worked with many excellent teams. I’ve not had any of your problems because we always chose tooling that, for us, struck better balances and gave clear, concise error messages. There are certainly projects which are badly designed, but that is the team’s failing in every one of your complaints. Perhaps you should look inwards and not lash out against a large, diverse community.
No Man's Sky has actually won a bunch of awards for an "ongoing game" now, most recently winning Best Ongoing Game at the Game Awards 2020, so maybe there's hope for Cyberpunk 2077 if they follow the same trajectory.
You say this now but if we ask you then, the day of your death, would you rather die now or live a few more years in a diminished capacity, you might have a very different answer.
The article isn't about Java dying. It's about the author's gripe with Spring.

Undoubtedly, 10 to 15 years ago he'd write and article about how Java is dying because Struts.

20 years ago it would be an article about how it's dying because there's nothing to compete with the new kids on the block in the web space.

Java isn't going anywhere. It will probably slowly lose its significance over a few years, but it will be a decade or so before it will actually start dying (if at all).
Even more so when you factor in dev time.

Programming is more like mathematical notation than english prose.

In mathematics we write a² + b² = c² to describe the relationship between the lengths of the sides of a right triangle. We don't write it out in english words longhand, because the notation is brief, packs a lot of meaning into a small amount of space, and lets our minds focus on larger concepts rather than parsing long phrases and keeping their meanings organized.

I haven't had too much to gripe about with the female player character voice acting thus far.
My friend who played on PC basically told me the exact same thing. It runs smoothly on his gaming setup, but the game is too linear with pretty much zero replay-ability because of how shallow the world is. It's clear they left a _lot_ out of the game. Even features that would seem "basic" for an open-world game, like AI, are apparently very awful (cops just spawning randomly right around you but they don't chase you and oddities like that).

While the console issues themselves are huge, it definitely seems the game itself is missing way too much for what it costs.

> Simpler code base from not having to worry about concurrency and multi-threading

This kind of thing irks me when I read it. I don't understand why people think of microservices as an architecture pattern. To me they seem more like an implementation detail.

When it comes to concurrency and multi-threading, microservices mean you have different problems to worry about, not that they go away. I try to get people on my projects to imagine microservices as network function calls. If you diagram out how your data flows, how your concurrency works, you tend to see that a microservice is roughly a thread in a monolith. You gain not worrying much about mutexes or shared memory, but you lose on performance. Languages like Rust let you get close to having your cake and eating it too.

It is also a useful exercise for teams to consider "how big does my service need to get before microservices on Python scale better than a 64-core monolith in C/C++/Java/Rust?" Another good question, "if a monolith is stateless, does it scale as well as microservices?"
So you don't trust the machines to scan the ballots to count them, but you do trust them enough to scan the ballots so that the public can count them? If the machine is compromised the scanning step will be compromised.

We made our subscription management system open source
Hi there,

Hubble offered an easy-to-integrate subscription management service to startups and businesses, with a variety of customer acquisition and retention tools. We participated in Y-Combinator Build Sprint in our second month. Ultimately we ceased operations as we did not find a USP.

We made our source code opensource today under Apache License. I hope someone finds it useful, either as a learning material or for their own business. You can contact me at samuelrowe1999@gmail.com if you have any queries or would like to contribute or take over the project.

Then you need to shorten your comment! Not as verbose as my replies but it can definitely use some improvement on the big Oh! Try this out for size:

> me like metareason, me have arg for short func name: Short name O(1), long are O(n) (some name too long: “the function with the long name”)

There's where your logic breaks down. If you truly followed the O(N) argument for all your communication mediums outside of programming you'd sound not so intelligent. Likely you built this argument as a response rather then actually followed it in both your English and programming communication styles.

Better re-examine that meta-reasoning.
