> Semiconductor engineering is complex, but probably not so complex that your average Math Olympiad couldn't pick it up in a month or two.

We have a chip shortage going on for months now, if all it took was two months and a bunch of smart people, those billions of dollars in chip orders would've made it happen. That tells me it has to be a bit more complex than you think.
There was never going to be a two year control group. The moment somebody in a trial could get vaccinated via some other channel, they'd drop out and get unblinded. Anything else would make it much harder to get people to participate in the study.

For Covid, there's an additional problem with antibody tests being relatively abundant, and would allow the participants to unblind themselves anyway.
I've seen this before where the building is only on AirBnB because it's zoned residental. I once stayed at an AirBnB where the little welcome binder you got when you got to the room included instructions on what to do if the cops knock on the door and start asking questions.

It's one of the caveats of bargain hunting. Sometimes you end up in sketchy situations.
I'd go a bit further and say that song lyrics are poetry in its most populist and accessible form. The distinction is artificial.

Of course there's a very wide range of quality, but lyrics written by the best songwriters are also much better as poetry than the vast majority of what gets produced by ivory tower poets who consider themselves above all that. The gatekeeping, obscurantist mindset that has taken over in contemporary poetry is really unfortunate. You won't be taken seriously as a 'real' poet unless your work is completely impenetrable to the average person.
It's a common assumption, but also a dangerous assumption when the people who you assume have established the proof are the same people who stand to profit a from it being proven.
Right, but I was being even more pedantic when I quoted "intention to buy." That is to say, if I see an ad for something that I want to know more about, but I don't want or need, or cant afford, I have an honest reason to click on the ad even though I don't have an "intention to buy."
Deno is a super interesting project, I love the built in support for webgpu and webassembly, I'd love to see something like BadgerDB for deno, maybe written as a Rust extension, this would allow a lot of cool clustering where each node gets assigned to a part of a hash ring.

Fellow Zenfone 6 user here. Are you running LineageOS or another rom? How are you finding it?
Some choice quotes from Mark Liu, chairman of TSMC this week agreeing with you:

* "It's economically unrealistic for all the countries to build additional chip production capacity,"

* “Uncertainties led to double booking, but actual capacity is larger than demand,” How quickly those concerns are resolved “really depends on future U.S.-China negotiations.”

* each country developing its own domestic semiconductor industry would lead to a lot of “nonprofitable” capacity.

>what you going to do with all the fabs build in the US when you are hit with downturn?

Priority sourcing from domestic fabs, let TSMC whither, by design. Semi is oil now, there's more strategic/geopolitical considerations than supply/demand curve. US/EU/CN do not want Taiwan to have semi dominance, it's not in anyone's interest. Current TSMC position is happenstance due to poor industrial policies that countries are scrambling to address. IMO press releases and capex spending around Arizona announcement suggest TSMC wasn't prepared to built US fab, let alone 6. US pressured them, EU failed to. There's a good chance TSMC/Taiwan will try to delay their silicon shield evaporating for as long as they can. Probably not a coincidence big ticket US weapons sales are scheduled around when fabs would be up.
Translate accordingly to HN profile URI. User short URIs aren’t short here.
It would be unethical to hold back vaccinations from a control group for 2 years after it already proved efficacy. It would also get very hard to find study volunteers because why would people join a vaccine study if there is a 50-50 chance it means they can't be protected for 2 full years?
The mod_php factor with cheap hosting thing isn't the whole story as many cheap hosts only offer PHP/CGI.
> what's considered "an original", and I think that's what's happening with NFTs today

An original what? Remove everything off-chain from the conversation. All you have left is a small amount text (which itself is *information* !!) in a distributed database. Thats no more original than the particular instance of bootloader code in my desktop computer.

Everyone who doesn't want to invest 10000 human lives and a small countries total resources trying to find out if maybe oxidization isn't really exothermic but just somehow always looks that way (is fire hot?), isn't guilty of being incurious or religious.

Back in days of old, I would upload a bunch of perl files into the cgi-bin directory for the server... or files that ended in .cgi into wherever in the htdocs directory.

With some juggling of what the script that was the .cgi, it would have been trivial to make it launch Java and consume the data... but Java wasn't set up for that (and the startup times for a Java cgi would have been nightmarish).

Goldman Sachs Consumer Wealth Division | Senior Engineer | NY/LDN/Warsaw| Full time |

What We Do

Our Consumer business, Marcus by Goldman Sachs, serves millions of customers across multiple products including lending, deposits, and financial tools. Our goal is to build a leading consumer digital-banking platform and to do this we have two self-reinforcing consumer strategies: direct, where we serve consumers through Marcus, and embedded, where we deliver our products through partner ecosystems. Our partners include Apple, GM, Amazon, Walmart, and Jet Blue and we are in active dialogue with additional companies operating in the consumer economy. As we continue to scale our embedded strategy, we are building a consumer Banking-as-a-Service platform to enable partners to offer consumer financial products directly within their own customer experience.

Our team in New York uses modern architecture principles and technology, a collaborative development process, and a continuous delivery approach. Key tenets that we apply when designing systems for our customers are: value, transparency, and simplicity. To achieve these, we rely heavily on automated, data driven decision processes using predictive analytics and machine learning. Our system architecture consists mainly of microservices built using Spring Boot, Vert.x, Kafka, and MongoDB.

As we continue building a leading consumer digital-banking platform and expand into new products and partnerships, we are looking for experienced engineers to join our team.

OpenUnit | Full time | Remote only | https://www.openunit.com

OpenUnit provides management and payments software for the +$50B self-storage industry.

I’m looking for people who (still!) want to work with Ruby, and who are at least a little skeptical of JavaScript SPAs. There have been some great updates lately to the Rails ecosystem with the introduction of Hotwire.

Remote only, but US/Canada based is easiest for me to work with.

We’ve raised a small seed round, with notable investors from the self-storage industry. You’ll get full transparency of the company’s cap table and balance sheet, and you'll work alongside a small engineering team that consists of two people.

You’ll spend basically all of your time building and very little of it in synchronous meetings.

I've just looked into Appsmith and it seems like a fantastic solution! Thanks! :)
@ajarmst is that last related idea you quoted your own? That’s a powerful expression of how I see human culture: question everything, but remember to respect the ideas of the people who came before you. There might be a baby in the bath water you’re discarding.
The title should be "don't sprinkle environment variable reads all over your codebase", not "don't use environment variables".

The problems proposed are easily fixed by:

1. read all your env vars at startup in a single function, then pass them down from there

2. don't invent your own serialization format, just use json or csv, both work fine in env vars. or use the env var to reference a file path that contains more complex values.

As a devops engineer / sysadmin for going on 10 years now, I pretty strongly disagree with this article. Environment variables are so much better than the alternative.

In the past, programs frequently invented their own configuration loading systems, but over the last few years containerization has strongly nudged most programs towards accepting env vars. The result has been a better, more consistent, and less surprising config experience for everyone, even non-container users.

I think TSMC over estimates how state sponsored fabs would look like. I can predict now that it will be a disaster and many billions will be funnelled to bureaucrat friends through questionable procurement. If there is going to be a miracle and they actually build a fab, it will be lacking as they will not find specialists willing to work for EU wages and level of taxation.

I just saw something about this. The reason Apple hasn't been impacted is because their sales have been dropping for the past few years on iPhones and other devices. That trend hasn't changed during the pandemic. While many of the other players predicted drops during the pandemic, and initially it did, that demand dramatically increased, especially in the desktop market (AMD, Nvidia, etc). It is hard to fault companies from predicting the massive increase in a market that has been decreasing for decades(?) now. There is limited capacity at TSMC and Samsung. They leave buffer, but that was quickly consumed because almost everyone needed more capacity. It takes potentially years to increase capacity (build a new fab, etc), they have no room to allow any companies to adjust their capacity reservations.

So at the end of the day, it isn't that Apple was necessarily better...their demand just didn't change and continued the downward trend in certain product areas, giving them breathing room.

If typing on a screen was really as enjoyable and productive as a keyboard, we wouldn't see the enormous collapse in long-form text blogging over the last decade in favor of just uploading images with a much smaller amount of text.

Physical keyboards appeal to, besides those who just like to write a lot of text, also people who often need to SSH into a server and enter extended characters, or who run Emacs on their phone and want to easily use the power of packages like org-mode.

I don't get this. From the same perspective you can argue global variables have scope too since they are "scoped to the current process". It's not like other processes can access your global variable, that's a very low bar for a scope.

> IMHO the biggest issue that blocked Perl's broader adoption was the really obfuscated handling of nested data structures including objects

Oh man did we ever abuse the shit out of the loosy-goosy data structures you could make in perl. Almost any time you needed to debug or trace something, you'd pretty print the entire data structure you were passing around. Some of those suckers would be huge and you'd be passing that structure around to almost everything in your codebase!

As an outsider it might appear scary and a massive code smell... but when you worked on that codebase it just kinda all made sense somehow. It was just how perl programs rolled.

I have yet to work in any other language that let you use and abuse the native data structures quite like you could in Perl.
Do you have data that says otherwise? If not then your take is just another opinion and calling for censorship on either is futile.
I've always used a mix of environment variables and a set of config files for my apps. Often the vars determine which config files are loaded, which mode the app operates in (expert,normal,beginner), and debug level. I never put security information in the env variables. I also always treat vars as unvalidated user input (i.e., apply sanitization and validation).

And frankly, this is everyone's motivation. EU wants to not depend on TSMC. US has gone all-in to not depend on TSMC. China has gone all-in to not depend on TSMC. And there are even rumors that Russia is trying to build their capabilities in this regard.

I think the leadership at TSMC is being a little naive. Alternatively, they may know very well what's going on here and they are being willfully obtuse to paint as bright a picture as possible of their long-term prospects.

"We built enough capacity for the world so you shouldn't build any local capacity to ensure resiliency of supply chains because this will harm the current efficiency of our monopoly position."

These people are awful.

That's like saying you should never use anything other than RAID0 because anything else costs you more for the same performance. Yeah, sometimes cost/performance aren't the only important metrics!

The pandemic has literally been a real-life example of the downsides of the approach he is advocating.
