Right: there is a decade of discussion about this one narrow instantiation of a feature that is itself a mere part the past fifty years of discussion of the general class of thing it is from--coroutines--and an infinite amount of academic material on both that concept and monads--which is the correct mental abstraction to have here--and so the idea that I must have read this one random recent blog post (one which I honestly had heard about it in passing, but without any belief that it was important to anyone or that there was even one specific one that mattered) that was written by someone who probably, ironically, hasn't read all of those actually-seminal papers is more than a bit frustrating.

(edit) Really, everyone should probably start by reading the 1978 papers "on the duality of operating system structures" and "communicating sequential processes", which, when combined with the appropriate background in the continuation passing style compiler transform (which I am pretty sure was also developed around the same time) could have hopefully prevented Ryan Dahl from accidentally causing the callback-hell "dark age" of software engineering from ever happening in the first place ;P.

This is precisely the problem. I subscribed to some sort of a pay-per-article newspaper site some time ago, and the idea of paying 8-17c per article made me fear committing to reading anything. I ended up dropping it.

Really, "micro" payments are not micro at all! "Micro" should mean a thousandth of a dollar at most, with the assumption that volume will make up for the profit.
While I understand this viewpoint and I don't necessarily disagree with it, this one piece of equipment is unique and that's why I think it is so often "broken".

No other piece of equipment has the mix of complexity and niche impact on the restaurant. Even the brand new at the time espresso machines are mostly self cleaning. There's no other object that requires this(minor IMO) skill level to operate. So it's just left undone. It's widely regarded that while it's a high profit machine most of the time you can run a highly successful business without it.
> I wonder if modern graphics and voice acting might actually be making games less immersive, by asking less of players' imaginations when it comes to completing the characters.

I’ve had Red Dead Redemption 2 for two+ years and I accidentally read a spoiler early on and I still can’t bring myself to complete the story because I’m so attached to a character I know will die. I’m probably dreading this character’s death far more than I dreaded my Tamagotchi’s and I was well and truly devastated the first time my Tamagotchi died.
Brave is releasing one soon.
I think Go adoption is still limited to bleeding edge startups in India. Go libraries from top Indian startups on GitHub doesn't seem to be maintained or seems volunteer work.

Where as Python did pay really well, I myself paid a fortune to my python devs working on computer-networking projects in my startup between 2014-19 as there weren't many python devs doing computer-networking in India. I guess most python devs are working on Datascience/ML and it sure does pay really well considering cost-of-living in India.

Java is still pretty much the staple in enterprise software and in large outsourcing companies(Which I believe is because of legacy products in U.S. companies/Govt. which provide projects for them). Even in India large Govt. infrastructure SW projects use Java.

I grew up with single sex changing rooms being the norm pre internet, and hated it. It had nothing to do with homosexuality or internet, and everything to do with bullying and human's worst instincts.

I was healthy and normal and straight and it still affected me.

The only thing worse than dealing with bullying or the typical relational aggression in social groups is dealing with it when you're literally completely physically exposed.

I hate it and was happy with the trend toward privacy. Society isn't compassionate enough to deal with nudity.
It still happens. Google Play is more than happy to charge to your phone bill as an available payment method.
There's no reason it couldn't have them stored locally. If your car has an on-screen map, it's probably been downloaded to the car directly like standalone GPS units popular years ago.

Similarly, a lot of the tricky aerodynamic effects in F1 come off the tyres (tyre squirt etc.) so without modelling those you're not getting a great view of the bigger picture.

In a similar vein I remember reading that one of the reasons for the CFD restrictions was because the bigger teams were starting to spend a lot of money modelling the aerodynamics of the tyres as they oscillated in corners (because F1 tyres have a relatively high sidewall they deform a lot through corners, then if a wheel lifts a little e.g. bouncing over a curb, then the whole tyre starts oscillating laterally.) Sounds very interesting but a bit of a CFD nightmare!

Garbage take.

No one with even half a clue thought that Moderna pledging not to enforce patents meant that they would just give away their IP.

And what’s missing in this unhinged rant is any nuance about how to allow for generic drugs whilst still ensuring pharmaceutical companies can afford to invest in increasingly expensive bets.
Right, maybe "heavy" was a bit too strong, I was more thinking from the point of view or Rust which aims to have a small, mostly optional runtime.
It's the first time I hear about Zope, and also zope.interface. How widely is this used?

I personally would be hesitant to adopt something depending on some not-well-known library.

Then on the other side, if sth like interfaces are missing in core Python, and typing.Protocol is not quite the same thing, maybe we should try to extend the core typing for sth like typing.Interface?
Or maybe first to typing_extensions.

Or, as I understood it, maybe we just need to fix ABCMeta (for MyPy), and then already have what we want?

I'm also not quite sure I understood: Why do I need this base class zope.interface.Interface at all? Why not just implement IPlugin or whatever like it is mentioned there, but not deriving from Interface, and throw NotImplementedError in methods (tools like PyCharm then recognize this is an abstract method). And all concrete types/classes just explicitly need to derive from this IPlugin class. That's mostly what I anyway do already, and what I also see in other projects code. This approach seems to be fine. What's the problem with it?
An annoying example which has gotten worse recently is recipes. I generally trawl through 5k words of someone's life story and product promotions to get to the piece of information I need, and they often rewrite the recipe 5 different times in different levels of detail -- is this because to make the first page rank on Google you need to pad out the SEO? I too always find myself doing site:reddit.com.
I found the article provocative, but annnoyingly flat. There's just one 2D image from the MRI scan; an MRI "image" is a 3D image that you can pan, tilt, scroll and colourise, and so on. That 2D B+W image look like something from the sixties - you hardlyu need an MRI scanner to make a picture like that.

It has to be cheaper than that, thousandths of a dollar at most. A single dollar should last me a long while when I'm out binging for content.
The vulnerabilities also proved that a third party could tamper with evidence without the police detecting it.
Use on delivery should at least be workable in more populated areas.

The shippers work for short term storage ( I expect that's why my county had a delivery of Pfizer early and not another since).
Your numbers are off. Netflix has more than 36.000 hours of content.
IANAL and this is just my reading, but it sounds like Neo4j the company gave their enterprise database product away on an open source licence that allows forking, stopped doing this, got forked, and are now trying to pull that ability to fork back using trademark law of the sort you'd more normally see when a supermarket makes its own brand products look suspiciously similar to the branded product they're trying to rip off.

I'm not sure it's correct to understand monads as a kind of function coloring mechanism. Two reasons. First, monads aren't functions.

Second, the whole function coloring thing wasn't a complaint about limits on function composition. If it were, we might have to raise a complaint that arity is a kind of color. It was a complaint that functions of one color can't be called from inside functions of another color. And you don't really have an equivalent problem with using one monad inside the implementation of another monad.
Looks like they couldn't make it happen.

Regarding the casual app/graphs, the graphs are cool but they feel very sluggish and slow to load. It takes 15 seconds to load the page + the top two graphs on a 250Mb/s wired connection on a powerful PC.
All of that could be done on gravel roads which are a lot cheaper than paved roads. Or trains once we are beyond the last mile.

Paved roads are required when there is a lot of traffic, but all the uses you named are a fraction of road uses.
As I've tried to express elsewhere, it's really not difficult. Anyone can do it given a few hours training.

Suggesting the franchise owner do it or even the store manager is far off from how these operations work in my experience.

Franchisees (Owners) have so much to do. They never "have" to work a single shift after they complete onboarding. While this can take around 9-12 months once most are done they never look back. Owners are tasked with running and growing the business, focusing on their local community and the people element. Any equipment work is not considered a good use of their time.
Not that I agree, because I don't, but I think the Jacobin position would be that government banks would bankroll the pharmaceutical co-ops who would freely share the process once it worked.
This quickly turns into criticizing Moderna for using their full technical capacity supporting business partners instead of everybody. There isn't infinite capacity to share knowledge and it's unlikely that they are short on potential partners.
Python interfaces are an obscure feature. Zope.interface is the the ancestor of Python interfaces.

Which is to say, not widely.
Glassdoor isn't a magical truth ball, it depends on 1) random users putting in info, and 2) putting in correct info.

For issue 1) you have a selection bias, and for issue 2) you have no way of knowing if that salary is for a hotshot with a great resume, 6+ years old and out of date, or anything else has changed within the company or field. And in a lot of cases the ranges are crazy large, almost uselessly so.

With a number in the actual job ad you know exactly where you're at: "SWE 2 @ 120k + 20% bonus + misc."
Ah yes, let's rely on the mercy of strangers because the system deemed you unworthy of participating on equal footing. How delightful.

I don't think this analogy works. I think it is more akin to police opening a folder and seeing paper evidence, but having no idea who put the paper there, when it was last opened/modified and unable to determine if the evidence is legitimate.

For me, this story isn't about fear that police could leverage the bugs to manipulate a case. It's about the constant fear that laymen rely on unverified "experts" to put people behind bars for years.
> Actually the entire Erlang runtime is "async"

I wasn't sure so I did not want to claim it, so thanks :)

> async/await being implemented and popularized as it is today everywhere might just be our generations null-mistake

Agreed, especially since each language implements it differently.

For example, Javascript's async/await is just syntactic sugar over promises and aren't truly "colored" functions.
What about collaboratively tagging drivers with metadata - I suspect that could be pretty useful... ;-)
Your half baked blog post is worthless.
Not just the Netherlands. Populism, law & order, back to the land "tradition" are all on the rise worldwide.

There's a disillusionment ... due to what is of course the great question. It's pretty clear that the gridlock in politics (Obama, Change, Hope -> Trump; early 2000s EU extension -> Brexit), the good old social inequality and so on has something to do with it.

Also, likely the balance of mood shifted. (Less people are optimistic about the future than used to be, plus these disillusioned people have become more vocal and bitter, and very susceptible to populist dictator-wannabes' agitation. Whereas the new generation that would counterbalance this is so inoculated against earnestness online, that they wholesale reject any participation in whatever their elders do online. Yet at the same time they are of course trapped in the Insta/TikTok world.)
Have you ever been in an MRI machine?

The racket is almost deafening, and the scan lasts 20 minutes. It's very cramped; I'm kinda astonished they could get two people into the machine at the same time. I can't imagine having a shag inside one. I guess you'd have to be really horny.
I'm not sure you can draw parallels here. Who are the people "handling it", Cellebrite, the police?

The vulnerability allows any device plugged in to the "kiosk" with a malicious file to do anything it wants to any existing report on the "kiosk" as well as plant code for future execution in order to do anything else it wants.

Let's assume the device which does this does so silently, at what point are the police or Cellebrite supposed to know nothing in the kiosk can be relied on, ever?

With a piece of paper on the other hand, the other sheets in the folder don't suddenly rot when you add a maliciois sheet of paper, although this does sound like an interesting and potentially novel attack vector.
I get 37500, which seems to be correct. Can you post a picture?

We have learned a lot. I hope that means transit upgrades to better ventilation which in turn mitigates those issues.
Grafana is far more robust and feature-rich. You have a million options and configurations, and heck, you can even set up the open-source version for yourself for free. If you enjoy diving deep into your data and setting up sophisticated custom dashboards, this may be just what you need.

Charello is a light and quick way to turn your database into charts. Once you add your connection, your charts are live and ready for your consumption. There's not much to customize or play with, and that's how it's intended to be. If you're looking for quick visualization with almost no configuration, you may find this useful.

This is a surprising finding, given that the increased number of mutations in the wildlife around Chernobyl is well documented:

But, perhaps it’s because the humans were exposed for a shorter period of time before they were all evacuated.
Being explicit about side effects in the type system isn't a bad idea, but don't conflate that with blocking/non-blocking operations. Some side effects aren't async (eg console.log in JS, mutating shared state) and some pure functions are (eg GPU linear algebra operations).

Effect systems (as in Koka) are mentioned elsewhere; arguably their major innovation is being explicit about effects without sacrificing composability. Functions are only "coloured" by the type system, rather than syntactically, and can be coloured differently depending on context. This is quite different from the async/await situation.
It would be interested to know how this process looked like. I'd imagine it was very gradual and consisted of little steps each leading to the next one, and when they finally started to serve ads they were probably thinking it's not that bad. I believe crossing that line made paved the way for considering things like tracking the whole web morally acceptable, maybe even positive.
Brings me back! So tempted to spend the day toying around with Slackware.

Is anyone here still using Slackware?
While I agree with the author that most companies don't disclose their crown jewels in patents, I disagree with the historical perspective that this is somewhat new. Moreover, the author misses the point, in that while patents really don't disclose most of the secrets, they still pose a significant threat to anyone replicating some of the methods, exactly because they are so broad.

So yes the patents don't disclose how to actually produce the vaccines, but that's actually not the problem (see the published work where people already reverse engineered the vaccines). The problem is that patents still prevent people knowledgable in the field from actually making vaccines, because of the threat of expensive litigation.

Given how Humble started. I always figured it was meant to be a charitable organization. Even if they have changed a lot and become more of a proper store these days.
While I wouldn't give 100% to charity. It was probably something like 90/10 between charity and Humble themselves. So it's a shame to see it reduced so much.
Well, you got my entire message wrong. But I get it, some things seems to be just granted. Let me explain you that I'm not talking about private suppliers of army or police. I'm talking for services that army and/or police serves itself for you (hope you get that difference that armory without army is actually worth nothing). You might think it is for free, granted or so. Nope. You receive a bill for these services in your taxes. So this isn't about what army and police outsource to private companies. Army and police are itself a kind of "gov owned companies" that serves you and that get paid for it's services and it works well enough so we don't need to go for private police and private armies and pay for it every month with your credit card ;-)

Hope now you get the point. If you see any problem that would make it impossible to work same with pharma let me know. So far I think it is more than possible and if established on world level could bring even more benefits, opposite to when it is left just to private companies.

I'm from Poland, we have dual healthcare system here. Public and private. And here is a thing: private healthcare can do anything that public can, no limitations, but apparently private services are focused only in certain areas of healthcare - these areas which brings most profits, not these that saves most life. That is natural for business. I don't blame anyone, I'm just saying that free market doesn't work well in this area as it won't for police or army.

Free market is good for mobile phones, cars and so on, but when it comes to general health or your safety I don't think it is the most optimal way to push progress or spent your $$$.
Typo. "...13 billion years old and correspondingly distant."

This might resolve my doubts that the phenomenon could be an artifact of different conditions in the early universe.
One good thing about C++ is that it scares off dumb people. :-)
We had a case in Brazil that was both sad and absurdly silly.

A woman was found murdered in a cemetery. She was in town for a university-related festival/party, and was staying temporarily with some other students.

The police suspected the other students first, and went to their house, and found out:

1. One was an RPG player, had RPG books.

2. The other was a heavy metal fan and had heavy metal-related posters.

3. The other guy was into literature and had some 'dark' literature.

So conclusion of the officers: it was a satanic cult, and the woman was killed in a "RPG Satanic Ritual"

The prosecutor's office at first went with it too.

Later, already mid-trial, the prosecutor changed, the new prosecutor found a lot more formerly-useful now useless evidence that the police seemly deliberately ignored:

1. The police had in evidence storage some bloodied clothes that they never ran DNA tests on, the DNA was now useless (it has been years since the actual murder). Also the evidence was probably contaminated, the storage consisted of stuffing all the evidence in trash bags and leaving them in a random room in the police station.

2. People told the police multiple times, that the woman had drug debts, but they were ignored.

3. A known drug dealer was seen on the day past the murder, riding a bike around town, with his t-shirt having red stains on it, police even seen the guy themselves, and didn't bother stopping him and checking his t-shirt.

The new prosecutor despite seeing all this, had hands tied and just went along with what the police wanted, and tried to prove in court that they were "satanists".

The ruling was this (the judge was quite upset at it too):

1. The prosecution failed to prove they were satanists, evidence pointed out to the accused living there by coincidence, and their hobbies being "dark" or "fantasy" were coincidence too, only one of them was an RPG player, only one of them was a heavy metal fan, and so on, they didn't shared their hobbies with each other.

2. And even if they WERE satanists (they weren't), in Brazil being a satanist is not a crime.

3. For some reason the prosecution provided zero evidence that was actually related to the murder, they only tried to prove the accused were satanists and presumed this would be enough to know they were the murderers, but they never tried to link the accused with the crime scene, didn't even tried to explain when they would been at the cemetery.
At one point, it did. I'm not sure about now.
Actually, zope.interface has been around for 20 years.
It just became almost abandoned like the rest of Zope with the era of Django/Flask (and the zope 3 debacle).
Nowadays I think Twisted, Pyramid and Plone are the only "famous" projects left using it
