And it works very well in Rust as long as you understand the core concept of the language (ownership). Rust is special, it has this fundamental concept that you need to understand before going on, and that's add some inevitable learning curve. But once you know how it works, it just works exactly as you'd expect and in the kinds of things the author is trying to do[1], it doesn't gets in your way at all.

The post just sounds like the author didn't took the time to understand the core concepts, and is trying to brute-force their way through. This way of learning doesn't work very well for Rust, or at least not if you are impatient. (Especially because the error messages when it comes to closures are still far from Rust's overall standards).

[1] there are things where Rust's ownership is a constraint (cyclic datastrutures for instance, or shared memory between your program and a C program (io_uring, or wayland)). But those are situational.

House of Leaves is a great book. ANd in places really creepy and claustraphobic.

I read it on the bus when I used to have to commute for 4 hours a day. Must have looked weird reading this giant book, and at some points reading it upside down, or on its side, or flicking through pages pretty fast (some pages only have 1 or 2 words on them).
Just like RJ Reynolds and Joe Camel, the Hertz management knew that their share offering was targeted at investors ill equipped to make a rational decision.

It is bad faith and fraud.

The prevalence of the “it’s just the market” argument and corresponding ethical gap here is disturbing. Read the Ben Horowitz “why I didn’t go to jail” post that was reposted earlier this week. End of the day, everyone who signed off on the Hertz offering decided to paper over an obvious moral hazard with sophistry and bullshit to enrich themselves (via bonuses) and bondholders by defrauding the public.

I've been an IT consultant to 2x recruitment agencies in the past so can confirm with an n+2 confidence that at least some agencies mistreat their recruitment staff in ways that would shock even the most sociopathic sweat shop owner.

Think high pressure sales tactics and the almost daily threat directly hurled across the office for recruiter X or Y to 'meet their targets or GTFO'. Fortunately I was a freelancer but I always used to feel so bad/sad for them, especially knowing the profits that the owners were making vs. that of their staffs'.

On the other hand I once attended an interview at the early stage of my career for an extremely prestigious (pay, perks, prestige) role and sensed something was wrong when the interviewer asked me if I considered attention to detail an important part of the role......

When I said 'Yes, of course' they then preceded to berate me about a typo on my CV (cringe)....

When I asked to have a look at their copy I saw that the agency that had re-typed/reformatted my CV and introduced the typo.

When I told the interviewer that they replied with 'We don't hire people that blame others' for their own mistakes'. Ouch.

With steam coming out my ears I politely informed the interviewer that that was fortunate since I really didn't want to work for any company that immediately viewed me as a liar. We agreed to terminate the interview at that point.

Funny thing was - in my briefcase I had an extra copy of my CV as submitted to the agency but I thought – Meh, why bother.

I consider that one of my many dodged bullets (Sorry for going slighly off-topic, my bad).

Zig does it (https://kristoff.it/blog/zig-colorblind-async-await/).

Basically using "await" just means you are declaring opportunity for concurrency at the call site, but it is still valid to await a synchronous function.
And it is valid to call a function synchronously, even if it internally supports concurrency via await.

There is considerable suspicion that SARS-CoV-2 was enhanced by the Wuhan lab. The simple fact that the species carrying the closest relative of this epidemic was a thousand miles away from Wuhan and was not present at the wet markets in any capacity is sufficient to doubt the narrative.

If we want to safeguard our species from zoonotic pandemics, instead of weaponizing them, then a vaccination effort would be better directed at the source.

Perhaps an international effort to identify dangerous zoonotic pathogens and address them within their natural hosts is preferable to what COVID-19 has forced us to endure.

Another common problem in caching is the "thundering herd". You have a bit of data that is expensive to compute, very frequently requested, and fine to be a little bit stale.

The naive approach is to follow the normal pattern: use the cached version of it's there, and otherwise compute and stick it in the cache with a TTL. The problem arises when you have a fleet of web nodes going at full bore, and the cache expires. If the data takes 10 seconds to compute, then for the whole next 10 seconds, every new request will find the data missing from the cache since it has expired and not yet been replaced, and so each of those requests will take on the expensive and redundant work of repopulating that data.

It can be a performance blip at best, or a total disaster at worst, causing cascading failures and downtime.

One relatively easy solution here is to just have a separate worker process that runs in an interval and preemptively freshens the data in the cache. In this case you can set with no TTL, and web front ends just use whatever they find. You also need to deal gracefully with the rare case where they may find nothing, like in the case of a cold cache boot.
I thought the same too, until recently.

We had an old mixer-grinder which ran for a decade or so. After it broke down, I went to an official repair shop, and they quoted an amount which make buying a new one a better option. So we did - from different company. It turned out that the new one constantly gave us problems, but we stuck with it for years. And one day while cleaning up our home, we found the old mixer and gave it to our domestic help to keep if she could get it repaired.

She did get it repaired. For less than a DOLLAR! And it still runs better than the new-fangled mixer.

Primary effect of the radiation is not death though.

This is a complicated topic, as willfully or not a lot of the numbers that people used to throw around (contamination level of water, air, child cancer numbers etc.) have been reajusted in the last years, and health effects are not explicitely labelled as “radiation related”, making it difficult to just throw a “look, told you so” kind of press article at people in online discussions.

There’s a lot of conspiracy theories, but a lot of gov. bullshitting as well. Overall my understanding is radiations (including from the rain in the first days, and from the food/soil that has been moved) had some ambient effect, but not to tv drama proportions.

I agree with you, but I can't in good conscience leave anything less than 5 stars for people working in the gig economy. As long as an Uber driver gets me to where I'm going and isn't driving recklessly I'll give them a 5 even though most of them should be a 3 (going by a linear system). There's no way I could mess with someone's livelihood like that.
Spray and pay works for sending people a little underqualified for a job. Sending people who don't know why they've been put forward for a job under false pretences just means the client won't interview any more candidates you send, especially if that candidate is plenty employable enough not to bother bluffing their way through.

And unlike candidates, recruiters can potentially get paid to fill a lot of a company's vacancies, provided they don't get blacklisted by them...

I used to hate CF until I came across the fusebox pattern/framework[1]. I think they were some of the first to draw up a sane architecture for "template" languages (cf, php, asp, jsp etc).

Much like a book I picked up on sale about asp[2] - it really drove home the point that a programming language really needs to be terrible before it is the main problem - rather than how you use it. See also xmlhttprequest/Ajax and "Javascript - the good parts".

I felt the same driving in Peru vs driving in Sweden or Spain. While the traffic is a lot more organized in Sweden and Spain, people were a lot less attentive so close-accidents happens a lot more than in Peru, where people communicate via honking and pay attention to the road 100% all the time.

While the traffic was a bit crazier than I'm used to, I actually felt safer on the road in Peru.
I tried it, and had a different experience than most I presume, because I got sick pretty much immediately [1].

The main issue is customers should have the ability to disable lockdown to install their own OS. For fixing issues, the source code could be shared with customers under a license permitting individual use/modification, but not distribution etc.
I think the GP refers to Zig's approach[1], which is just “do mark functions as sync or async in there signature, just switch between two modes at compile-time using a global flag”, which I don't think fits well into Rust's values of being explicit about what is happening.

"worst recruiter ever"

Traits, generics, lifetimes, macros and endless, and incomprehensible backtraces when using Futures already makes it more complex.

Rust is difficult to read and maintain, due to the common use of abstractions over abstractions over abstractions. Just looking at a structure, it’s already hard to understand what functions are available (hidden in traits, themselves behaving different according to cargo features…). And of course, it also has things such as operator overloading, and hidden heap memory allocations, so there’s a lot of hidden control flow happening.

It’s also even slower than C++ to compile, especially when using macros. And it doesn’t have static analysis too as C++ does. Both of these also contribute to “complexity” as in “how much effort it takes to write an application”.

Similar situation for me on the other side. Interviewing a guy that would be my colleague. Asked him a few things about his resume, he gave me an odd look then asked, "May I see that?" When I handed it to him he scanned it over, handed it back to me and said, "This is an utter fabrication."

We hired him (interview went on discussing the job, his actual background, etc.) and he was really good, but I don't know what my bosses did with that recruiting agency, if anything. Above my pay grade, that.

This was early 1990's, so this charlatanery is not new.

This author is spot on.

Raise your hand if you've committed the PostgreSQL to memory for looking at the DDL for a table, or identifying slow queries. Too many database management operations require highly specialized knowledge about a given database's internals.

Folks are far too willing to spend huge money on expensive licenses for db analytics tools to tell them when queries are slow or suboptimal.

Love the idea of making the db responsible for migrations. Downside there could be that db lock-in becomes a concern, and it might add cognitive overhead connecting application code to the current schema. How do you know if app code is up to date with the db without a live connection to prod?

"The whole recruitment process seems broken "

The IT market is pretty good compared to other fields but in the and, the market might have collapsed already.

""The Market for Lemons: Quality Uncertainty and the Market Mechanism" is a well-known[1][2] 1970 paper by economist George Akerlof which examines how the quality of goods traded in a market can degrade in the presence of information asymmetry between buyers and sellers, leaving only "lemons" behind. In American slang, a lemon is a car that is found to be defective after it has been bought."

So most good candidates and most good companies have long exited the official job market and work with referrals or whatever. And all what is left is that now shitty companies are receiving shitty applications. And if a non shitty company offers a job in this market or a good applicant applies to a job, the other side will never believe it.

I understand wanting to stick with a tried and true query language, but it doesn't surprise me at all that a new database technology has a new language. Sometimes things are just not going to work the same.

ORMs, though... I tried to get on board with those, and it's done nothing but bite me. As the article says, I end up spending more time in the documentation, and then my boss ends up questioning the choice as well when things (like in the article) happen.

In the end, I think the ORM has been as much pain as help, and I'd have been better off just not bothering.
I think that the problem is that Republicans tend to use the terms as bogeymen and catch all straw men to attack the other side (e.g. Antifa, woke, social justice warrior). That creates a situation where, even if the term still could be useful for describing an ideology, it becomes associated with bad faith arguments. If Republicans argued more in good faith then I don't think we would see this phenomena as much.

Thanks for the suggestion. I didn't think of (1), although it's a pity that it's not as ergonomic as async fn.

I kinda feel like there's this false dichotomy here: either hide and be like Java/Go or be as explicit as possible about the costs like C/C++. Is there maybe a third option, when I as a developer aware of the allocation and dispatch costs, but the compiler will do all the boilerplate for me. Something like `async dyn fn(Request) -> Result<Response>`? :)
If your goal is to own a productive asset, it is investing. If your goal is to ride the price fluctuations of an asset, it is gambling.
Continuing with the assumptions, it takes /us/ 1E42 watts, but the authors speculate that the universal lower bound is indistinguishable from 0. Much like how we can't make a useful fusion reactor, the universe at large has made loads of them because. If their suspicions are right and the lower bound is so low, it would need to be some incredibly contrived collection of events to not occur naturally with some regularity.
This part seems weird to me:

> “On the balance of available evidence, the large increase ... in the number of thyroid cancers detected among exposed children is not the result of radiation exposure,” Unscear said.

“Rather, they are the result of ultrasensitive screening procedures that have revealed the prevalence of thyroid abnormalities in the population not previously detected.”

----

In order to have any confidence in that statement, wouldn't you also have to pick a representative population far away from Fukushima which could not have possibly been exposed to radiation, numbering in the many thousands of people, to conduct thyroid examinations/screenings on and determine if the extra level of scrutiny and analysis was also turning up a similar number of previously unseen abnormalities?

did they do that?
I'm not familiar with linear types but as far as I can see they're pretty much the same as rust's ownership rules. Is there something I'm missing?
