> I was always told that Mac "just works" but at least with Linux I can see what the heck is going on and what needs to happen to fix it, here I am just at the whims of whatever Apple pushes out.

True, but even if the fix is known, I have zero time to read the dsmeg log to send a bug report, try temporary workarounds that may break later, installing beta versions or editing .config files in separate apps and then diving into system files to replace the component my self.

> At the point the only reason I can imagine people would defend Macs is Stockholm Syndrome.

I use my Macbook (Intel) to just 'get things done' and not to end up diving into a sea of hidden config files or replacing system components. Big Sur is stable enough for me on Intel.

I guess the ones that you mention that have this 'Stockholm Syndrome' with the Mac are those who are hyping and got the M1 Macs which have very interesting limitations which they won't tell you. I'd rather wait until the software ecosystem is mature and the second or third generations of these ARM Macs have been released before updating.
Radio running on backup power?
Yeah, any product/service, probably has at least some level of ongoing bug fixes, security patches, updates, etc. There are periodically threads on here about creating businesses that mostly just throw off revenue. And there are invariably people who created a nice income stream for a modicum of ongoing effort. But there are very few paths to spending time over a year or so to get to a significant income stream that's little more work than depositing customer payments.

Assuming this is true, I recommend everyone start running!

If I am regularly running, my resting heart rate at night drops into the upper 30s. During the day sitting down, 45-50.

If I haven't been running (for a week or longer) it picks back up in to the mid 40s at night, and around 60 for normal sitting.

Working with my aging mother, modern UIs are very complicated. Ever changing gestures, hidden menus, differences between machines, passwords, multi-accounts, etc.

I'm 41, and, you know, the sort of person who reads HN, i.e., can find my way around a command line, sling enough code to get out of a paper bag, etc. And I can't make sense out of many modern UIs.

Half of them are just forests of unlabeled icons. Like, ok, what is the thing that looks like a squirrel making out with a lawnmower supposed to do?

The other half are menus inside menus inside menus inside menus where finding the functionality you want is damn near impossible.

No government or corporate webform gives you all the information you need up front---no company discloses the full price until you're about to put the credit card in, no government tells you what documents you need until you're ten pages into the application.

While I agree that Zig is in between Go and Rust, you're gonna find a lot of crazy stuff that will tie your brain in knots with Go.

A few examples:

- Json parsing being special cased into the language

- multiplying a user-input integer with a time value to be a timeout

- channels and goroutines (sorry, I've been spoiled by erlang)

Aside from things that are actually bugs, I haven't found anything like this in Zig. On the contrary, I typically have found something that doesn't work how I expect, and then I think about it, and it's "of course it's like this, why isn't C like this??".

The punishment should fit the crime, but prisons should be ONLY to protect people from dangerous criminals (Serial killers, rapists, etc) and not a form of 'punishment'.

For madoff just tax him at 90% of his income for life, assuming he/kin have zero assets. Ensuring he has to work at walmart as a greeter just to get by. I'm sure that's probably just as bad as prison for many white-collar criminals.

Is it possible to use Socat (or any utility) to redirect a UDP connection on a local Windows machine to TCP port 443/80 to a remote system listening on 443/80 that will connect to the original intended UDP connection?

I can also do port redirects with iptables that can assist with solving the problem.

I need to host a microservice that uses UDP which won’t connect out on most corporate networks due to firewalls. I need to get the connection out via a standard TCP port.

Nothing malicious. It’s a basic corporate client/server app, but it’s bound to a UDP port that I can’t change.

It happens every year to wild cows too that are impregnated by males because that's what bovines do.

they don't plan on parenting

Also calf mortality is correlated with the body weight of the mother when they are born, domesticates cows have almost zero calf mortality rate, contrary to what happens to wild cows.

They will also die due to predators, weaknesses, attacked by a bull or older males or for other natural causes, that they don't encounter when living in a farm

It's perfectly natural for a cow to see her calves die, it's part of their biological destiny.

This is what is known as a principal-agent problem, where the agent (the professor) has the ability to make decisions for the principal (the university) but their motives are not fully aligned.

Fine, whatever, I'm gonna play it and learn some cool redstone hacks or whatever.

Maybe he'll get into modding when he gets older, and I can lure him deeper into programming. Maybe he'll want to ramp up the production value on these awful videos I record. I'm there for that.

The point isn't to make your kid do something big that you want, the point is to make room to do big projects that your kid wants.

Exactly.

A: Company decides that it won't allow X on its own platform.

B: Government requests company to not allow X on its platform.

C: Government tells company to not allow X on its platform.

D: Government forces company to not allow X on its platform.

Here on HN, we've been having a long conversation about A, and the majority opinion is that it does not violate the First Amendment. D clearly violates it. C also does, at least in spirit, and the more so if there is an implied threat to move to D. B... it's pushing the line, if not more.

So, was this B or C? Or C with the implied threat of D? Or C with the explicit threat of D?

> I don't see the point in a javascript-based compiler

JavaScript is a full programming language. Why wouldn't it be a fine choice to write a compiler in? People have a funny idea that compilers are more complex software or are somehow something low-level? In reality they're conceptually simple - as long as your language lets you write a function from one array of bytes to another array of bytes, then you can write a compiler in it. And for practicalities beyond that you just need basic records or objects or some other kind of structure, and you can have a pleasant experience writing a compiler.

> Surely any file format/DSL/programming language you write will be parsed server-side?

JavaScript can be used user-side, or anywhere else. It's just a regular programming language.
It's not so much a matter of reduced typing as that if you're invoking an operation many times, developing a concise notation for it can cut down on the noise it creates for a reader. It should be used very sparingly and heavily documented, though, for exactly the reason you outline.

It really comes down to who you're writing the code for. For something like numpy, whose users will mostly be familiar with matrix notations, operator overloading enables a huge improvement.
That would be even worse! Can you imagine the headlines where it's a private company that tells the government what they need to buy AND sells it? Horrible conflict of interest.

One of the original intents of go was to make a static, compiled language that felt familiar to python/ruby programers. This manifests as a really concise syntax (type inference via := etc) and a tight development loop enabled by fast compilation times (enabled by being strict about unused dependencies etc).

I was for a time optimistic you could use it as your scripting language without much downside and get all the upside of compiled static types. Rust looks cool and I want to do a project in it at some point but at the moment I'm most optimistic about python with optional type annotations that are understood by compilers and alternative runtimes.
