> avoid custom code and work with a configuration management system test runner

ansible-molecule is a test runner for Ansible playbooks that can create VMs or containers on local or remote resources.

You can definitely just call shell scripts from Ansible, but the (parallel) script output is only logged after the script returns a return code unless you pipe the script output somewhere and tail that .

> manual verification of `set +xev` output isn't an automated assertion.

From "Bash Error Handling" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24745833 : you can display the line number in `set -x` output by setting $PS4:

export PS4='+(${BASH_SOURCE}:${LINENO}) '
set -x

But that's no substitute for automated tests and a test runner that produces e.g. TAP output from test runner results: http://testanything.org/producers.html#shell

I disagree.

Raise taxes if you need money. I guess the government does?

But doing it to solve inequality and bring down equity valuations? That seems like irresponsible tinkering with the economic chemistry set, and not the right way to set govt policy.

You could blame the architecture on Wayland. But I am sure in 15 years when Wayland(implementations) will have similar features and stability as Xorg it will be obsolete. I have the feeling that Wayland architecture is like it is because of incompetence and moving the problems into extensions and implementations.
> If Universities made examples out of students who were 100% confirmed cheating beyond reasonable doubt, the amount of cheating would decline significantly. Instead, we're stuck with this game of half-baked anti-cheating systems which some students approach as game.

When I went to school they made a big deal out of the student ethics board, and if you were caught cheating you were brought before it. It was implied that you would be kicked out of school and your cheating conviction would be appended to any other school's request for your transcript.

I don't know how prevalent cheating was at the school.

You can do analytics without doing Google Analytics. More people need to understand this. There is nothing wrong with analytics (other than code/network bloat from overuse). Every website you connect to already has your IP address, browser info, referrer site, etc.

> Just ask your users what they want.

Jesus no. Do you even understand why we do analytics in the first place? We do analytics because you can't trust users to actually say what they want. The analytics tells you exactly what users are doing.

And yes, analytics tells you that some weirdo is browsing your site at 20px wide. No one is spending money and time designing anything for the outliers.
Looming high (fed-directed) inflation + a high capital gains tax unindexed to inflation... seems like a shadow wealth tax. Dunno if I feel great about this in combination.

> decided to do an oral examination,

This really is the best case, but as you note it was 8 students so quite manageable.

It requires a little skill on the part of the examiner, but you can quickly find out how much material the student knows with much higher accuracy than other exam formats, in my opinion.

One of the skills needed is to be able to make it conversational-feeling and reduce the anxiety of students. You can often tell when a student mostly knows what is going on but has misstated or misremembered something, and guide them around the place they got stuck.

> Heck, even if it were for everyone, I've yet to see a solid reason why earning a dollar from investing money is somehow better for society than earning a dollar for investing your labor.

It's pretty simple in my mind: Retiring is hard enough, and at some point I won't be able to do any labor. Market investments are the current way that most people are able to retire, whether we like it or not.

Raising it for anything above 1M / year? No problem. They've got enough money to retire comfortably.

How does Semgrep compare to ESLint+a strict tsconfig?

I'm the author. Its not as if I've never heard anyone say how amazing new language X is. That seems to be about the only thing I do hear.

I love programming languages and play around with them all the time and have interviewed creators of programming languages. Clearly there is progress being made in the field of programming language design.

The article was saying that you can't necessarily take people opinions in the SO survey at face-value when considering programming languages that are still in a honeymoon phase. There are no 15 year old Julia code bases. Once you have taken over a large code base in a language and have the experience maintaining it that is something else.

>So what exactly do you gain? Especially if they also come up with a M1 Macbook (no Air/Pro, the small version)

Fluidity of not having to carry or manage two devices would be the main attraction for me. M1 Mac's can already run iOS and iPad OS apps so there is no need for a dual boot mode. When I want the pure tablet experience I just stick to native iPad OS apps. When I need more power and flexibility, hook up a keyboard and track pad and now I can use MacOS apps effectively.

Heck if they actually paid a smidgen of attention to Mission Control it could easily provide the functionality to manage the different "modes" - at the minimum a macOS workspace vs. an iPad OS workspace.

The bits are there; are they motivated to do it? Probably not but it's still nice to dream about what it could be :p
Vaccines were distributed based on population, not demand. We can't vaccinate people fast enough because we didn't get enough doses (see my other post in this thread). Now that other states have a stockpile sitting around, MA might get more doses and with general availability this week, our numbers should improve.
I know you can't please everyone. Hope you didn't mind the ribbing. ;)
political culture in dakotas very different from that in minnesota. i am having little surprise here.
To me it looks like adaptive design, not responsive design. Responsive design scales seamlessly and doesn't even need breakpoints when designers don't insist on pixel perfect mockup recreations and let the browser do it's thing.
Considered by whom? Different people have different opinions. I find Dostoevsky's language, for example, quite difficult to read taking some time to get used to. And I don't like this soule digging kind of prose, but other people may love this.
Demand is high because all the low risk people in healthcare (and all the other industries that got priority) got in line right away and are/were competing with the high risk people and seniors.

Basically we dumped a ton of volume into the vaccination funnel from the get go (because we were vaccinating such a wide range of people so early on because of the employment based qualification criteria) so while there was a backup we were always running the "actually vaccinating people" part of the system at full tilt. Other states poured a comparative trickle into the funnel. While there was no backup up top you didn't have the bottom of the vaccine pipeline running at 100%.

Yes.

At the cost of their privacy you get to learn what people are doing. That still doesn't tell you what they want.
I edited the post but frankly I don't see how "morally clueless" is more conducive to a flamewar than "barbaric" which appears all over this thread.
No, corporate tax is of corporate profits, which is just capital gains that haven't been dispersed and may be dispersed in the future (or may be reinvested). Salaries and wages are not profits, so they are not subject to the corporate tax. In theory, the sum of the capital gains rate + corporate tax rate is supposed to approximate the individual income tax rate.

But because most people will never understand this, we can't have a tax code that makes sense. Mass democracy is incompatible with sensible rulemaking in this area.

1. That just moves from phone to battery, doesn't it? That's not a cost increase for the bundle.

2. You don't need fancy things like cell balancing for a phone battery.

3. Even with this chip it's $4 BoM for small batches and significantly less in bulk. So that could be a 1% cost increase. So we have that, a thin plastic shell, and a tiny connector. How are we hitting 20-30% increases, hundreds of dollars?

Accidentally Quadratic with DataFrames in Julia
But how would a website help high-risk individuals to know which unvaccinated individuals to avoid? Another idea could be mandatory tattoos for science deniers - the tattoos would have to be on a conspicuous place like the hand or forehead and visible from a safe enough distance to give people time to put on extra masks. This could be more "humane" than putting them in solitary confinement, but it's more likely to incur a taxpayer expense.
Or create a palm reading fortune app that sells for 1.99, and sell the data to amazon to train their AI. Unless that database has been purged of PID, there would be the potential for abuse if it was sold or stolen for getting some free groceries.
Do you think they're only using this for groceries and that it will never be expanded to other retail? In the article it says they are already in talks with other vendors. This means your hand does more than just buy groceries, it will work anywhere there is a palm scanning terminal. It will work at WalMart or Best Buy to buy thousands of dollars of electronics, or maybe even one day to buy a car. Maybe your phone will even be able to read palm prints, and you can buy and sell private goods, or illegal goods using it. That's a lot more than a bunch of groceries.

I dumped the Google Music app the second they started co-mingling files that were on storage with songs available on their service. Been using third party apps ever since; currently on Phonograph from F-droid.

If you jailbreak your iPad, there are tweaks that add real multitasking support and you can use a terminal. If that's not something you want to do, there's always the (very slow but really cool) https://ish.app/ that's an x86 emulator coupled with a syscall translation layer (like wine) so you can run lotsa Linux stuff on iOS.
The argument is that dragging on corporations hurts customers and staff as well as owners. It's better to precisely target the owners.

However, I think it misses that most of the benefit to owners is in the form of unrealized gains, not subject to any of the tax rates that people talk about tweaking.
Pushing Rails validations down to the database?
You are right! If you are a subsistence farmer you NEED to have cows, goats, pigs, and/or chickens to make up for the fact you can't grow 12 months a year and most of what you grow isn't edible by people. However subsistence farming is extremely land inefficient requiring 5 acres per person it feeds. This means that the maximum supportable human population is roughly 2.4 billion using subsistence farming.

Also, allowing animals to graze over fields used for growing food results in food borne illness and crop disease. (Usually anthrax and E-coli) Typically if you are going to use animal based fertilizers they must be sterilized and composted ahead of time unless you don't mind poisoning people.

Meat IS a luxury though. It's significantly more expensive per calorie than vegetable crops. (At least twice as expensive for the cheapest meat) It also uses about twice as much land as vegetable crops. Often subsistence farmers end up taking animals to market rather than slaughtering and eating themselves because they can get so much more food that way.

I'm not a huge fan of Working Copy's UI, although to be fair to it, I find a lot of desktop GUI Git clients to be pretty arcane as well. My experience with Blink has been pretty good on the whole, though. In any case, I was focusing on iSH specifically -- I'm just not convinced that "when I run this terminal program which is a clever hack to allow console Linux apps to run in x86 emulation, it's a poor experience" is a great argument against the iPad's utility. :)

> the sole group who are served by the iPad Pro

I also know or know of writers, photographers, DJs, musicians, and podcasters who do a lot of work on iPads. It was my only portable computer for over a year, and the one I took with me on sometimes long trips. I got real, genuine work done on it, and I am not an artist. I have my complaints with it, to be sure (you might notice I'm using past tense there). But I think the HN audience has a bias toward "ease of use as a development platform" as a primary measure of utility -- which happens to be a measure that the iPad does very poorly on. That's an understandable bias given that audience, but it's worth poking around and seeing what "iPad first" power users are actually doing with their iPads even with the occasionally maddening limitations baked into iPadOS.
One important property of decentralized storage is that it prevents data monopolies. For example, if you host your web app on Sia Skynet, then users own their data instead of being locked in by the app developer. It also enables a model where different apps can easily access the same data. The data is in the "cloud", but still owned by the user.
Ha, I want to add investments but it would have to be random-ish. No point in using historical data for share prices because that would make it a bad simulation if you already know the result.
