What would be courageous is Uber and DoorDash treating their drivers as employees, and not exploiting them through creative financial accounting processes (including, historically, using customer tips to offset the fees they owed to the drivers).
It's more to do with what entries you would put in a routing table to get EC2 Classic over a DirectConnect, no?
Western Germany was not halfway a Soviet satellite but firmly in NATO - coincidentally the nation where the IRBMs to take out Moscow would have been launched. And yet it bought gas from the USSR which had been super correct and never tried using it for leverage against Western Germany.

Eastern Germany was an own nation and they got preferencial prices for gas from the USSR as part of their block.

>There are ways for small classes (project based assessment), but these do not scale up easily.

yes, project based learning, even in groups, can make cheating irrelevant. and it can scale if you (the lecturer) put in the effort to design it that way. its possible to do this with hundreds of undergraduates if you provide clear guidelines and assignment examples (i used to have a mythical student who we 'watched' complete her assignment). you can also make available an archive of all past assignments (and shift the topics each semester). in short, i used to encourage my students to "cheat", but the project tasks were always (interestingly) different.

I'm not sure putting the parents in prison would fix that or change it much in any way.

If parents are stone/ drunk so regularly they shouldn't parent, it's child neglect/ abuse regardless of whether the drugs are legal.
The not-homeless, not-drug-addict rest-of-society is already well on its way with its response...gated communities. No homeless, no open drug use...all protected by private property laws and private security. Get ready for more of them. It doesn't matter what laws you will pass, you don't get past the front gate unless your card scans.

In the end, the only people who will be forced to look at open drug use and homelessness will be people who can't afford to buy a unit in a SafeStreets(tm) community (YC Winter 25!).

edit since HN is rate-limiting me: my point is, you aren't going to be happy with the response everyone-else has to social-engineering legislation they don't agree with. If you don't want more inequality and social divisions, stop giving people a reason to build a moat.
So, I feel like I should probably understand this better, but I still can't quite get my head around how buying a stock drives up its price. I understand this was all driven by "short sells" of Gamestop's stock: some hedge fund traders entered into a contract to buy some stocks at whatever price that stock was trading at at some point in the future, and then sold the stock (that they didn't yet have) at the price it was trading for now, predicting that the price would go down so they could buy it for less than they sold it. If that's what was going on, doesn't it require some uninformed yokel to buy the stocks in the first place? If people buying stocks drives the price up, and short-selling requires selling the stock before the price goes up, how does short selling ever work for anybody? Is there some "sweet spot" of stock selling that the hedge fund traders are hoping for where they can make back their money but still let the stock price fall?
> By the time our first few satellites run out of fuel, on-orbit refueling will be a reality, and we can just refill our tanks.

Are there any companies you're aware of that are working on this currently?

If this doesn't materialize in the timeframe you expect, how would that affect your business model? Would you need to raise prices to cover the additional cost of launching new spacecraft to replace old ones that run out of fuel and de-orbit after X years?

This seems like a bit of a chicken-and-egg problem - even if on-orbit refueling becomes commercialized by the time your spacecraft runs out of fuel, you'll need to launch with whatever hardware is necessary to allow the "tanker" spacecraft to dock and transfer propellant. Defining that interface in such a way that spacecraft from multiple companies can all be refueled by a single "tanker" spacecraft seems tricky both from a technical angle as well as from a political/social one.
There is no law against drinking bleach because it is uncontroversially bad for you

> NES.css uses 12 distinct colours. So how exactly is NES.css breaking "that feel"?

Some of the colors used here don’t exist in the NES palette — for example, the NES cannot display bright yellow (the best it can do are are the colors of the coins in Super Mario Bros. or the colors of Brinstar enemies in Metroid). The NES does not at all look “vibrant” or “crisp”, especially after all the artifacts from its cheap analog video generator.

> the NES [...] does allow you to define your own type faces

Yes, but (unless you want to do some really awkward tricks) the characters must be aligned to an 8x8-pixel grid. The text in this page is ~9x12 or something like that (including spacing), and the alignment is not consistent throughout the page.

> All these complaints about colour pallets, while demonstrably wrong, is just nitpicking of the highest order.

Sure, it’s definitely nitpicking. This framework looks great: it perfectly captures the “faux-8-bit” style that’s popular today. And it’s true that the NES is now the representative console of the 8-bit era. However, it’s also true that the NES (like every console of that era) had its own distinctive look-and-feel beyond just “big pixels”.

This NAS board is only for the Pi CM4 "Compute Module" - that is aimed at enterprise/embedded solutions, not education like the standard Pi boards.

I think for this, it's absolutely appropriate to compare to other solutions on market. Even the official Pi foundation data sheet describes CM4 as for "deeply embedded applications".

https://datasheets.raspberrypi.org/cm4/cm4-datasheet.pdf

I would also recommend to carefully examine low-cost x86 options, they often do come out ahead given they usually include all the stuff the Pi Foundation don't supply you - a boot volume, case, power supply etc.
"pg_upgrade does its best to make sure the old and new clusters are binary-compatible, e.g., by checking for compatible compile-time settings, including 32/64-bit binaries. It is important that any external modules are also binary compatible, though this cannot be checked by pg_upgrade."

This makes me very nervous tho, I've at least two exts (trigrams and gists) maybe they work, maybe not, I just prefer the ease of mind of a old fashioned dump.
I think the parent is arguing that it's hard to do useful big-data analysis on highly nested structures of data. When your database is storing some immense JSON blob, it's hard to write SQL against it.
A Narrowing of AI Research?
An old idea was programs could lean to read only code or write only code. The concept was making programs easier to work with took extra effort. Best practices in that context aren’t objectively better so it’s really not about state of the art. Rather their about understanding what you give up by doing something else.

Goto’s can actually be really useful, their simply not worth it today. It’s a subtle yet important distinction.
I know all of that.

Obviously I was asking about using F# to create web applications versus using BuckleScript or Reason.

I don't think this works, relevant city journal article here:

https://www.city-journal.org/harm-reduction-san-francisco-ho...
Precisely. It is extremely crucial to discuss shortcomings and criticize tools otherwise how are we going to improve if we all roll along singing the tunes of each other and never questioning anything?

This kind of attitude and softness towards criticism - "All tools are great" is not how we need to operate. Professional, well articulated and constructive criticism needs to be on the table.

I downvoted the GP for this reason.

I advise everyone here to listen to criticisms and write them as well. Don't be afraid of some kind of a backlash, express freely.
panther looks very interesting

i'm trying to evaluate solutions in this space and these are the ones i am aware of: chronicle security, panther and grapl

otherwise i have seen teams build their custom platform using databricks (apple did this), snowflake, or some other cloud-native data warehouse/lake

any others around?
This is really a distinction without a difference, none of these companies choose to forego a OpenJDK distribution and all of them actually contribute to it. If it wasn't compelling to do these things, they wouldn't do it.

FOSS and copyleft isn't about requiring anyone to do anything, it's about increasing user freedoms. Users and developers have more choice today in the Java ecosystem thanks to all of JDK distributions. I think it's you who has mistaken OPs comment to mean companies are being required to do something, when in fact everyone is benefiting by playing by the same copyleft rules.
Because it saves time and effort?

If you don't have enough expertise, you imitate those who do. As you gain knowledge, you can evaluate others' ideas, and then roll your own.
Similarly Warren Buffet's '2-list strategy' drove this point home for me.

>I wondered why they didn't use FBLearner Flow

were they in FAIR? conceivably FAIR might need more flexibility (because they're trying to "innovate") and so they fall back on lower level tools. but i know people at FAIR and they too use fblearner. regardless FAIR (or whatever other org you spoke to) is very small relative to the total number of people using/doing ML at FB so extrapolating from their needs is unwise (if you're trying to build a business around some typical process).
They tried to invest in diversified sources. There was a plan to build a pipeline from the gulf states to Europe. Russia turned that idea into a war in Syria and a humanitarian refugee crisis.

It’s not as simple as buying it from someone else when Russia views countries that are beholden to them for energy as a geopolitical asset.

I'm glad FastAPI is useful! And thanks to InvestSuite for being one of the FastAPI gold sponsors.

If you are having problems, you can ask in GitHub issues.

But for the async stuff, a simple rule of thumb is to always use normal def functions and blocking (non async) libraries, that way FastAPI will do the right thing and make sure to run it in a threadpool (thanks to Starlette, the underlying library).

And for the specific path operations (endpoints) where you need to optimize performance, then you can use async and carefully choose async libraries, or run the blocking code with run_in_threadpool, but you can leave those details and possible extra complexity for the cases that actually need the extra performance or async support.
As the English demonstrated in the 1960s the best way to deal with addiction, in their case opiates, is to supply the addicts with good quality drugs.

The drugs and the addiction do no harm (opiates, nicotine is very harmful - and legal).

The ISA made the English stop the programmes which was a catastrophe for the addicts
> People starting a business after working a few years for a FAANGish company are like people with rich parents. They begin their startup journey with much more than the rest of us.

I think his situation is different. He didn't ask for VC money. He didn't have tons of "business" experience. He didn't invented GMail like Paul Buchheit. He didn't have "networking" advantages built and ready to serve him post-Google.

I don't know him other than from his blog but I can relate because he started from zero (aside from his software development skill) after quitting his job. He shared his journey: trying to figure things out as he goes along.

I mean... he worked for Google, "cool job, bro!". But have you ever worked for a BigCo before? The moment you're out, there's no safety net. All the infrastructure (software, hardware, HR, knowledge base, etc) is taken away from you.

SEEKING WORK | Los Angeles | Remote

I'm an expert engineer and data professional interested in consulting and architecting data pipelines. At Edmunds.com, I worked on a fairly successful ad-tech product and my team bootstrapped a data pipeline using Spark, Databricks, and microservices built with Java, Python, and Scala.

These days, I consult for a "new media" company you probably heard of and, over the past year, I re-built an ETL Kubernetes stack, including data loaders and extractors that handle >10,000 API payload extractions daily. More recently, I helped migrate said stack to Google serverless cloud functions.

My area of expertise includes data interoperability with Facebook Marketing, Facebook Graph, Instagram Graph, Google DFP, Salesforce, etc. That I'm a top-tier developer goes without saying. I'm interested in getting new clients and can help with best practices, architecture, and hiring.

Would love to connect even if it's just for networking!

They definitely don't, and it is no accident that they've maintained a state of uncertainty. After the B-cash hardfork created a potential taxable event, the IRS refused to release any kind of guidance or warning for how they'd classify things - and there is a massive difference between short and long term capital gains tax. But they can't outright ban it, because development would continue outside the country. It would be a crippling self inflicted wound, because there will be a strong need in the near future for what bitcoin provides. In a world of autonomous software agents (short of self aware AI), meat space money won't work - due to clawbacks and human deceit. They'll eventually try a push for some kind of Fedcoin, but that will turn out the same way it did when the Canadians tried it. Until then they'll continue mounting their resistance at the fiat interface points.
Similarly nothing but praise and admiration for FastAPI, having also migrated over a couple of Flask projects. A couple of additional plus points to above:

1. Integration with jinja2 , meaning I was able to use all my view templates virtually untouched.

2. uvicorn supported out the box, meaning there's a production-grade web server ready to go. It'll need some work for very high volumes I'd imagine - but for low-medium load (c.10s-100s req/sec) it's working just fine for me.

Flask is clear that the built-in server is not for prod use. It's not a show-stopper in the great scheme of things. But it's just one less thing to worry about with FastAPI. Building a docker image is trivially easy, so lots of hosting options.
Databricks raises $1B funding round at $28B valuation
Great points! The GPS analogy is definitely not 1-to-1. Our main point with the analogy is this: when GPS technology was developed, there was no foresight of applications like Tinder, Uber, Pokemon Go, which all would not be possible without GPS. So in that sense, we expect that if we are able to push satellite imagery in the direction of becoming a commodity, this will unlock applications we have no foresight of today. SVB & Space Capital released a great report on this idea called The GPS Playbook
> Heidegger is, contrary to popular opinion, not that unreadable. Stambaugh's revised translation of Being and Time is really good.

I disagree (I've never tried reading him in translation). His German coinage and turgid sentences are legendary. I had one particularly obscurantist sentence from Sein und Zeit on my whiteboard for over a year and it was always a source of discussion, both jocular and serious, when someone came into my office.
Rust is not object-oriented.

You can make "virtual method" calls in Rust (dynamic dispatch through a "trait object", a vtable). This is explicit though, the type will look like `Box<dyn MyInterface>` where Java says `MyInterface` (box = object allocate on heap, dyn = virtual method calls).

I think you might be misunderstanding what "static method call" means: in this context, it means a method which is not "virtual" (in C++ parlance), not a method which is "static" (in C++ parlance, e.g. not called on an object).
>Molding a 25 year old runtime ecosystem to adapt to AOT compilation feels like putting lipstick on a pig.

Other JVMs like J9 have had AOT support for decades now, its not "lipstick on a pig". There's plenty of material from previous JVMLS meetups about AOT.
The idealist in me wants to agree, but drug use does often hurt others by way of crime, social disfunction and destroying family relationships/unity (which is a hurt that can affect a subsequent generation at least).

Not always, but often.

The self-contained, highly functional, occasional heroin user is real but there are plenty that do not live up to the expectation of being responsible drug users.

Prison works as a stand in for involuntary rehab, and a very poor one. But While thinking Oregon is over correcting, I will watch from afar with an open mind to see the outcome.
Good to know, and thanks for confirming. I totally get that supporting all combinations can be a real challenge. I guess containerization helps, but that's becoming it's own smorgasbord of almost-compatible bits.
This is temporary relief for people who have totally uninsured crypto on RH. If RH fails, all the crypto disappears. You can't move crypto off of RH to a personal wallet and if you sell to get it off, you take a ~30% tax hit.
That's kind of the trouble with Gemini now. Since you can't send significant amounts of text to the server, you can't really make a message board kind of thing in pure Gemini. The content submission has to be done via HTTP or a terminal interface to the server.

But then, if HTTP is the simplest and most secure way to allow posters to make submissions, then is there really a point to allowing the messages to be read over Gemini? Might as well make a simple HTTP layout and have the whole thing run over HTTP.
