You don't need to know more physics. If you see something (a particle fe) disappear, and reappear somewhere else then a possible explanation is that it got there via another dimension. So if you eliminate all other possible explanations, the only remaining one is that there must be more dimensions. However, since things appearing and disappearing does not happen on macroscopic scale, the dimensions must be small.

I was expecting the FP languages solutions to be exceptionally short and elegant, but after a quick glance it seems to me that the Python and Python-like languages (e.g. Nim, Zig, etc.) are "winning" (YMMV of course).
That's maybe the reason, European houses, even if the initial owner doesn't plan to live there for ever, are buit to last basically for ever.

but wouldn't make something like tesla's solar roof make more sense for houses like that, those that already use solid shingles? If I don't care about my house for more than 25 years anyway, I think I'm not the ideal solar roof customer anyway.
Back in the days yeah! Same thing goes for google when it was a fresh company that didn't do evil.

For the sake of the hypothetical that will never happen anyway. Samsung would go with Google and Amazon then. Of course it’s already funny to think of Amazon and Google teaming up in the first place :p.

There are different kinds of anonymity. If you just want to hide you IP address from a specific website's operator, then you don't care much about being trackable or not. You just use Tor as a fancy IP spoofing technique. They know that you are you, but might find it harder to ban you or call the police on you. (Of course, they can just ban all of Tor. And of course this scenario is mostly useful for trolls... but I can imagine some cases where this you have a legitimate need to spoof you IP like this.)
>>Putting in a new solid slate roof today is stupidly expensive, and basically nobody does that outside of the very top end. You can probably change your asphalt shingle roof 4 times for the price of putting up a slate roof.

I'm assuming you're talking about US? In UK all new houses still have solid slate roofs. Even the cheapest new houses(around £100k where I live) have a solid slate roof that is expected to last 50-100 years.
Sounds viable to me!

> How can a solid slate roof need replacement after only few decades?

You will find when you Google "American roofs" that one of the top "People also ask" is "What are American roofs made of?", which goes on to say to your horror:

An asphalt shingle is a type of wall or roof shingle that uses asphalt for waterproofing. It is one of the most widely used roofing covers in North America because it has a relatively inexpensive up-front cost and is fairly simple to install.

The dominant American roof uses inferior technology because it inexpensively lasts on average about four mortgage holders (average US mortgage holding period is seven years), by which time IBGYBG. And to think many believe China has cornered the market on the "cha bu duo" mindset. To be fair, unless you are paying well over average rates, I've yet to see a country where the average residential construction shows a lot of attention to detail, just like in many other industries.

Why shouldn't Iran have access to nuclear power, or nuclear weapons for that matter?
It is only illegal if you signed the nuclear non prolifiration treaty.

Systemd does a lot of things right: Having one process for the init, declarative definition of common options, streamlined interface. Note that many distros used to provide shell libraries for the same effect, but ended up with incompatible init scripts.

In the end, the init script style is just the bare minimum that works solely by POSIX features and is a PITA when it comes to advanced use cases like dependencies or machine-readable system state or platform independent init definitions. Systemd is certainly not the ultimate tool ever written, but it is a bold step in the right direction. Maybe someone will rewrite it someday (if so, presumably in rust) and I will appreciate the effort to make things even better.
Hmm, yeah, it might be better to just keep the same degree "width" for both scales (whether Celsius or Fahrenheit).
But on a purely logical level (I assume that legally things stand differently), it's effectively the same: without an agreed date limit, they could just delay it infinitely (unless the customer submits to some extra charge/price hike) and the buyer would be in a much worse situation than with a cancelled contract because the seller could pop up any day "now you get your roof, give us the money, now"

If it's like modern cars - you drive it to a garage, then plug in a special USB/OBD2 gadget that just disables all tracking and app control. I imagine on a scooter if might be a special cable you plug in somewhere on the motherboard(Playstation modchips anyone?). Unfortunately the underground market is perfectly adept at producing any kind of security override tools for cars, and I can only imagine that once a scooter company like this gets big enough you will be able to buy a $20 "safety override" dongle off Alibaba.

This is only one of the so many reason why this can happen, in general, learning, negations, feedback, are all uncomfortable processes to a degree. The major factor why there is failures to improve organization process is shared understanding that is bases of communication, in addition to risks, responsibility individual mechanisms.

It is entitled to nuclear power (and indeed help from nuclear weapons states in developing that technology) under the terms of the Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty (to which it is a signatory). That is the same reason it is not entitled to nuclear weapons.
I wouldn't call it micro, but https://ebean.io/ is pretty nice.
It's really great for exactly that use case, creating lots of internal dashboards from scratch. Part of how it makes it really easy is that you don't go through all the normal dev practices, and will normally connect directly to your datastores as well as any api endpoints your service provides. This creates a huge amount of deeply hidden coupling.

You'll also inevitably need to go beyond the functionality that retool offers, at which point their development experience really breaks down, and you'll have to either come up with some bespoke workflow to integrate complex custom components, or migrate away.

Despite all this I really like it as a tool, it just needs to be approached with care.
The incredible thing is Big Tech has convinced us the solution is "too expensive" when they are making hundreds of billions of dollars in revenue.

My family speaks a related dialect (Southern Appalachian) , and I grew up in an area where many of my neighbors, teachers, and peers spoke AAVE (Charlotte). I can confidently say that you're misunderstanding the concept of double negation in dialects related to southern english.

Specifically: Double negation is not mandatory, it's emphatic.

There is nothing ungrammatical or confusing about saying "any" instead of "no" in that sentence. There is a slight difference in emphasis conveyed ("no drugs" emphasizes that the amount is none, and "any drugs" emphasizes the subject of "drugs"). It's also possible he just chose the the word "any" because he was trying to tailor his speech to a particular audience.

Another similar example from my family's dialect would be the use of "might could" in place of "could" to convey uncertainty. It's commonly used, it adds additional context, but it would not be incorrect, weird, or misunderstood to just say "could".

That's my point.

Only one nation has ever demonstrated and itchy trigger finger when it comes to these weapons.

Maybe you could make a case that having these weapons would make them more hostile/expansionist/aggressive. It certainly has merit considering what the US has been up to since 1945.
I think your experience may be jaded from the one side as much as mine is from the other side.

Your example assumes the same level of quality and guarantee of timely arrival.

Maybe it's just me but I've had such bad luck with trains in Germany that if I need to be somewhere I will fly or take a train one hour earlier. Or two. It was a running joke at my former company that every single time I visited our other office my reserved spot in an ICE was cancelled or the whole train was changed to an IC (yay, working with a laptop on your lap).

I think of all the times I've taken a plane in my life there was major delay twice - and one was at the other end of world, so a single time starting from here.

And no, I'm not one to regularly fly (and I hate to do it) but if you for example take Munich - Berlin or Munich - Hamburg, if I need to be there in the morning I'd need to take a train the day before and pay for a night in the hotel, or I fly in the morning. Proper night trains would solve that but then it might still be a wasted evening in a hotel room whereas I have no problem getting up at 4 am and catch a plane at 7.

For clarity: while part of my story doesn't apply for "train rides of 2.5h" the gist is the same. If I don't trust that the 6:30 train will make me arrive on time at 9:00 I'd need to take one at 5:30 or 4:30.

Also I fully support this ban. I'm just not buying the time+stress argument.

Looking at his history, he was clearly someone who was constantly trying to turn his life around and move past the mistakes of his past and become rehabilitated; he actively spent time volunteering and checking himself into places to get help.

The price of those panels is absolutely insane compared to normal panels. For marginally better looks, you pay 10x. Normally it takes around the lifetime of a panel to make back the money it saved on your bill, this will never do that with those prices.

> is not entitled to nuclear weapons

But.... Why?

Why do some nations with weapons get to decided who else should and shouldn't have them?

If you subscribe to the MAD theory then every nation or organisation should have a stockpile and that would create world peace over night.
It seems like a bit of a mistake to look at this like a programming language instead of, say, an information organization tool like Trello.

You don't have an IDE for designing process around Trello, you talk to people and figure stuff out that works (so long as it works well enough). I think these kinds of tools fit well in places where process are the big blockers, instead of the technical details (though of course technical details can crawl back up and bite you).

(Though I do think what you're saying seems to apply more to Retool relative to more straightforward low-code platforms like Anvil)
Agreed, XSLT 3.0 is amazing... and XQuery provides a more palatable syntax, with similar semantics.

Kinda ironic that given the problem definition no solution has been provided on XQuery or XSLT yet, the widely used domain specific languages that better suit the problem :-).

I believe there's a lot of inspiration to be had from the X-family of languages. The "secret sauce" is XPath. We need a new language drawing inspiration from the tree processing of X* languages but with more modern syntax and less with a less byzantine type system (read: anything but XML Schema :-). Less angle brackets would help too!

Bonus points: add tuples and prolog like queries to such language (thinking of SPARQL) ... now that would be something really powerful.
Ask HN: Is back-end web development less complex than front-end nowadays?
Basically I'm just wondering if grass is greener on the other side.

Don't get me wrong, I really like FE development and I've been successful in creating a nice career out of it for myself, becoming specialist in certain areas - I'm working on what is now I guess considered "modern" web apps. That means more or less creating React SPAs and figuring out the whole tech stack (webpack etc).

I do have experience with BE as well but last time I did any professional work was 4 years ago, I used to be Ruby on Rails developer and I liked that as well. I can also do some NodeJS development and work with databases. So I think I have general idea of both sides, just not very up-to-date on current backend tech.

I am asking because I seem to notice micro-trend where some people are actually advocating for moving back to monolith architecture and manage user state, including FE all at one place (server), Phoenix's LiveView comes to mind. I have not tried these new web-socket approaches yet. I was thinking maybe having a look at that and if the trend actually becomes norm, I'd like to have the skill set.

I know BE has become more complex as well with introduction of Kubernetes and other technologies (or more simple? IDK).

What is your take on this?
I would assume that this again has to do with the wording of the agreement signed with Tesla. One can assume they have lawyers of their own and that they wouldn't then do something like this if it's a blatant violation of the agreement, but nothing is impossible of course, including winning in court even if Tesla didn't think you would.

If I was affected by this I would probably not think of this as a complication but rather something that would make me look at different options. So either:

1.) There are competitors that can offer a deal considered subjectively better overall, for example a faster delivery and lower price for some other compromise (like panels instead of a nice looking roof).

2.) Or, there are no competitors that you can or want to consider, in which case you either pay up, wait for the market to mature or cancel the plans completely.
For context: this Callbag-JSX, a dead-simple, super predictable front-end library that closely resembles React in style. The core idea is to use explicitly reactive literals (in this case, callbags) and just allow embedding them in DOM (that is described by JSX, hence the name). This means:

- The library doesn't do much. There is no VDOM, DOM reconciliation, etc. Its a JSX-compliant wrapper for DOM APIs, that also supports reactive elements.

- The library is extremely predictable. A component is just a function. It will be called exactly once, when you call it (i.e. when you write <MyComponent/>). You can "use state" anywhere in the code, not just in "Components". There are no weird rules (such as React's hook rules).

- The end result is surprisingly similar to React in style and convenience. That said, some stuff get more explicit. Where in React you would write `{x + y}`, here you need to write `{expr($ => $(x) + $(y))}` because `x` and `y` are now explicitly reactive literals and not plain JS variables.

- Bonus for those who like reactive programming: you can use transforms (such as debounce, throttle, flattening, etc) easily on your states, as all of this comes from an independent specification for reactive literals (callbags specification).

- Also bonus: Since it doesn't do much, Callbag-JSX doesn't have much code and so is faster and more light-weight than Angular or React. That said, if performance is your primary concern, there are other options out there.
> Yes, because that totally worked great for car alarms.

At least in Europe, nuisance car alarms are extremely rare nowadays. This is likely at least in part due to them being extremely regulated. The most error-prone sensors have been banned altogether, and there are limits for how long it is allowed to make noise, and how often it can make noise before it has to turn itself off until it is manually disarmed and re-armed.

I hope police will confiscate scooters that violate these rules and "notify the whole street" (or issue guidance that self-defense is allowed against such nuisance noise after some point).
I sometimes wonder why bash transpilers aren't more popular? Bash is such a strange language (or maybe just very old with lots of cruft) that it's impossible to write anything meaningful without check SO 5 times.

Given i haven't spent a lot of time writing shell script yet but the syntax is just super weird, like I recently learned(1) that when you When you write if [ -e /etc/passwd ]; then .. that bracket is not shell syntax but just a regular command with a funny name.

Is there a recommended bash transpiler like what babel is to Js? So i can write bash scripts using a more coherent language and it spits out .sh files.

Mugabe printed so much money that it was a strain on the world's money-printing presses, and Zimbabwe is a small country. Doing something comparable for an economy as big as the US... I don't think so. Logistically probably impossible even though only a little money is cash, and the attempt would IMO run that "social capital, cultural capital, political capital & influence" down to Mugabe-like levels.

Even though the US may be the country with the largest ability to do that kind of thing, its ability does not stretch that far.

Couldn't agree more, using the XML toolchain (via lxml in python) for a recent project and it couldn't have gone better - you can get really far quickly with XPath, XSLT, and Relax-NG schemas to ensure correctness. Writing XSLT extensions in python in participate is really powerful.
