Edit: oops, I think I replied a level deeper than intended. I was responding to the composition/abstraction topic. I think I should just leave this here now though?

I assume you are talking about composition of generic set-processing routines, but I wonder if others realize that? It is easy enough to write a set-returning function and wrap it in arbitrary SQL queries to consume its output. But, it is not easy to write a set-consuming function that can be invoked on an arbitrary SQL query to define its input. Thus, you cannot easily build a library of set-manipulation functions and then compose them into different pipelines.

I think different RDBMS dialects have different approaches here, but none feel like natural use of SQL. You might do something terrible with cursors. Or you might start passing around SQL string arguments to EXECUTE within the generic function, much like an eval() step in other interpreted languages. Other workarounds are to do everything as macro-processing (write your compositions in a different programming language and "compile" to SQL you pass to the query engine) or to abuse arrays or other variable-sized types (abuse some bloated "scalar" value in SQL as a quasi-set).

What's missing is some nice, first-class query (closure) and type system. It would be nice to be able to write a CTE and use it as a named input to a function and to have a sub-query syntax to pass an anonymous input to a function. Instead, all we can do is expand the library of scalar and aggregate functions but constantly repeat ourselves with the boilerplate SQL query structures that orchestrate these row-level operations.

I mean you should have some level of reaction at the thought of being subjected to network policy set by the US government. Encryption isn't magic and you're still giving the gov't a huge amount of observeability and direct influence that they don't currently have.

Kivik, CLI-tool to simplify interaction with CouchDB servers
It's the same standard: Successful FSD is measured by automated driving (without any human intervention) that is equal to or better than humans (as measured by accidents/fatalities per mile) anywhere humans typically drive (e.g. where infrastructure for driving cars has been deliberately constructed).

Maybe it looks like my standard is tailored to fit Tesla, but it's actually not, it is merely the behavior I would want if I ever purchased a self-driving car. Specifically, I want a self-driving RV where I can program in anywhere I want to go and it will take me there.

I think Tesla's approach can easily get us there in my lifetime. I'm skeptical of Waymo's.

A change in your repo does not need to result in an import path change if you set up vanity URLs for your import path. For instance, all my go libraries use the import path of gomod.garykim.dev even though the repos are actually hosted on GitHub. That means if I ever change to self-hosting, for example, I just need to update some of the meta tags on the gomod.garykim.dev website to change the repo location.
> "third-party" dependencies can easily exist between teams in the same company sharing the same mono-repo. [...] This is trivial to do with any other module system I've used (Maven, Nuget, Konan, pip, cargo), but it is extraordinarily brittle with Go.

I don't understand? This should literally just be an import statement. If your Git repository is anchored at importpath "source.example.com/git", and your code lives under "app/service/backend", and wants to import "lib/db/mysql", it just does so via `import "source.example.com/git/lib/db/mysql"`. No need to use Go modules at all. Or if you do need to use Go modules, just have one module for the entire repository.

The only reason I can see this not work is if you have multiple Go modules in a single repository, or even worse have module import paths not corresponding to paths within the monorepo. But in that case the fix is easy: just don't do that?
That's not right. Opera had tabs in version 4, released in early 2000.

I've said it in basically every thread on Nomad on HN, and I'll say it again: Nomad is an awesome piece of focused technology and an absolute pleasure to work with. There is one very clear way to do things, everything feels very polished, and you don't need a combination of tools or even third-party services to get set up.

I'd encourage anyone to try Nomad, download the single binary to your laptop, fire up the orchestrator in single-node dev-mode and submit a few lines of a service definition file and see how it feels. Regardless of whether you already know k8s or use it, just give it a try, it will give you a better appreciation for what Nomad does and doesn't do, and what decisions it made to get there. The same advice is true for any competing set of technologies really.

>But as vaccines were developed and distribution ramped up through the winter and into the spring, estimates of the threshold began to rise. That is because the initial calculations were based on the contagiousness of the original version of the virus. The predominant variant now circulating in the United States, called B.1.1.7 and first identified in Britain, is about 60 percent more transmissible.

>As a result, experts now calculate the herd immunity threshold to be at least 80 percent. If even more contagious variants develop, or if scientists find that immunized people can still transmit the virus, the calculation will have to be revised upward again.

>Though resistance to the vaccines is a main reason the United States is unlikely to reach herd immunity, it is not the only one

>“Disease transmission is local,” Dr. Lipsitch noted.

>“If the coverage is 95 percent in the United States as a whole, but 70 percent in some small town, the virus doesn’t care,” he explained. “It will make its way around the small town.”

>At the same time, the connectivity between countries, particularly as travel restrictions ease, emphasizes the urgency of protecting not just Americans but everyone in the world, said Natalie E.

I don't know that something like Green Acres (complete with climbing the telephone pole to make a call, and one of the most influential local citizens being a pig) is going to build bridges of understanding. It's a silly show that's more about putting a rational main character into a setting where nothing makes sense. If anything, the laughs are because the universe of the country rubes is so ridiculous, yet so readily accepted.

Sourcetable.com | SF, Remote | Senior Frontend Developer

Sourcetable is a networked spreadsheet that makes it easy to create models from live database data, without code.

We are looking for a senior frontend developer to join our team working on the React.js codebase. You would be person number 5, working alongside experienced developers and founders who have built, scaled and sold companies.

We're a fully remote company that works on Pacific Time. You should be based in the Americas. (Australia, China, Europe are all "too remote" for our stage as we need timezone overlap.)

First and foremost, you should be a strong developer. The ideal candidate has experience working at an early stage startup.

Compensation: cash, excellent healthcare, meaningful equity and plenty of interesting problems to solve.

(Separately, we have a discrete visualization dashboard feature to be worked in either D3 or Vega. We are open to contractors for this position.)

Here’s the thing - you shouldn’t have to choose between a career and having children.

In the US we’ve created a set of incentives which work to put women at a disadvantage in the workplace if they become parents. Men, not so much, and largely because of this imbalance, even progressive couples fall into this paradigm.

In the EU they mandate equal paid leave for both parents and require holding a job for them when they return to the workplace [0]. This means that not only are parents given the opportunity to share actual parenting, but also that their children wind up with better care by their actual parents for the vital early months of their existence.

It’s time the US adopted such protections and embraced them culturally.

The fact that the military is expensive and the accounting Byzantine does not alter the fact that additional resource was expended beyond what was authorised by Congress. Good luck justifying your argument to oversight.

Flying time and jet fuel is specifically a cost that is monitored across the Air Force to make sure it is not wasted. Diversion to crap like this is part of the USAF pilot retention problem.

A glitch is unintended program behavior. The cause is undefined. It could be a programmer mistake, a content creator oversight (holes in 3D geometry, etc.), hardware failure, or a random cosmic ray causing one-shot disruption.

A bug is unintended program behavior generally caused by programmer mistake specifically.

Bug is a specific case of glitch.

Then there's also error, which is a glitch the computer itself is aware of. An exploit is a glitch that can be used to gain unfair advantage.

I'm quite curious about your scale / size of your team.

Most of the moving parts for k8s are easily handled if you go for a managed service.

Using Nomad alone is fine, but with Consul in the mix, it requires quite a bit of set-up (especially for some degree of HA), and from my experience, is no less harder than using something like k3s.

Overall from my perspective, it just seems like Nomad + Consul sits in two places.

Either for an org. small enough where HA is not a concern, so setting it up, and running it "on-premise" is trivial. Or, for an org. large enough where you can have a team dedicated to setting it up, and managing it to ensure it meets various SLAs.

Genuinely curious to know what's your experience been like, and if it matches up with this.
