When writing Ruby C extensions, you almost inevitably need to learn to read the Ruby codebase (written in C). It helps if you can get your preferred IDE to build and understand the codebase.

For people who want to use LSP + clangd to explore the Ruby codebase, I wrote up some instructions here:

https://blog.jez.io/clangd-ruby/

tl;dr: Bear[1] is a tool that hijacks a process tree, looks for calls to clang, records the args it was given, and serializes those out into a compile_commands.json file that can be consumed by various clang tools, including clangd. It's really slick and in my experience Just Works (the highest praise, IMO).

You can use more or less the same trick described in that post to get the Ruby C extensions you build working with LSP + clangd (no guide for this, but it should be self-evident from reading the original guide).

> (e.g. electric cars were invented in the 19th century and are only now becoming popular)

I hate this example, and it's like one of the most common ones on HN.

As said by thousands of people and many documentaries before me , the electric car had numerous real conspiracies working against it, some of which were the most powerful financial groups in the world.[0]

The 'electric car' wasn't made popular and possible by recent technological strides -- although it was made better.

The success and popularity of the electric vehicle was made possible by financial shifts away from petroleum exploration, facilitated by dwindling profits and increased scarcity of oil, and encouraged by a movement towards sustainability both from the social culture of the world and the various actions of government from country to country.

Yes, range has improved. Yes, the cars are more intelligent and better to drive -- but these improvements have been seen across the automotive industry since its' inception with ICE based vehicles included.

The real motivating factor behind the electric car is the environment that now exists that allows such endeavors to be profitable -- an environment that not only includes technological improvements like you hint towards, but more importantly it's an environment that fosters development of such things due to the existence of a profit incentive and increased governmental-body cooperation.

All that said, unless Cisco is even more evil than I realized (woah..), I have a hard time presuming that video conferencing has been held back by the same sort of conspiratorial under-handed back-office dealings that slowed the progress of EV adoption.

I use StrongBox Pro for managing a keepass database stored on iCloud. I highly recommend the app. StrongBox Pro offers a lifetime ios license for $45 and syncs well with iCloud, while giving you all the features of the more popular apps. My passwords are safe in the keepass file and I know that I'll always be able to open it and back them up wherever I want. Sometimes simpler is better, this is just a single person operation implementing an open format for password management.

Not really. I’m not sure I even believe the “grids weren’t designed for feed in” bs.

the beauty is that there's no constitution of any nation that says miners are entitled to cheap gaming GPUs for their farms either.

if NVIDIA wants to segment you out of the gaming market, that is their right as well. Free market cuts both ways - you are free to start up your own company and do it your way.
I don't mean they should, but I mean that if they created laws that were only able to be enforced against a few large tech companies -- including in their roles as intermediaries in software distribution -- most people's access to end-to-end messaging encryption and full-device encryption without backdoors would evaporate quickly.

Edit:

> Breaking, excuse me, backdooring encryption (including MITM attacks) breaks the trust model which makes our modern devices, communication, and commerce (which fundamentally relies on secure communication between verified parties) work.

I would very much like this argument to work, but I don't think it does.

First, even with backdoored messenger apps and disk encryption, you can still use HTTPS, and apps can still consume HTTPS APIs.

Second, even with backdoored messenger apps and disk encryption, you can still use digital signatures in electronic payment protocols.

Third, even with backdoored messenger apps and disk encryption, you can probably still use digital signatures to authenticate software releases and updates. (Although there are many governments interested in tampering with this, so it could easily become another battleground -- and one that I hope the governments would find much more politically difficult.)

Most people are already used to having some intermediary (1) possess plaintext of their conversations, and (2) be the authority for them for introducing and confirming contacts. While I think end-to-end encryption represents enormous progress compared to this, I'm not sure there's a political groundswell of support for it when most people don't know what it is and most people don't know if they're using it, or when. (Though I encourage people to continue trying to explain it and make more people care about it more.)
They're not producing fully featured cards anymore. They're separating the market into RTX-LHR for gamers and CMP for miners.

You are spot on.

But it's always the case that some tax revenue is used for things that most people paying into it won't benefit directly from. That's generally accepted when people believe the indirect benefit overall worthwhile.

This means that worrying about the relative %ages often isn't that productive compared to asking what is the broader benefit. (I'm not, fwiw, making the argument one way or another based on NYC transit, just saying it's a more on target argument to make).

It already is the same to me. I do not respect anyone that works for Facebook. They are the same as working for RJ Reynolds tobacco to me. There is no safe dosage or way to use the Facebook product. Maybe we thought there was, but I don't know of anyone that is not harmed by it that has an account.

Apple - some things good (well designed products), some things bad (phone addiction is a real problem, but they do at least try to make a token attempt to curb it)

Amazon - some things good (cheap products at my door instantly almost, don't have to drive and go shop and get ripped off/not find what I need), some things bad (warehouse workers treatment, every product is 4.5 stars even if it is boxed dog crap)

The First Electronic Spreadsheet
Rich Harris has it right. LANPAR is in fact the world's first electronic spreadsheet. The inventors/creators also invented implementing Forward Referencing - the cornerstone of spreadsheets. This was in 1969, ten years before Visicac and 14 years before Lotus 1-2-3.
LANPAR was used extensively for Plant Budgeting operations across every telephone company in North America throughout the early 70's.

VisiCalc, SuperCalc and TKSolver did not have Forward referencing. You had to manually refresh the screen (recalculate the entire spreadsheet) and watch to see when cells stopped changing values (if they needed results from cells further in the spreadsheet (left to right, top to bottom).

Lotus 1-2-3 did have Forward Referencing. Multiplan I, did not and accordingly could not hurt Lotus until MultiPlan II incorporated it.

I had communications from magazine editor(s) who simply had not been aware of LANPAR because it was so far ahead of its time, and 10 years later VisiCalc implemented its spreadsheet on Apple's microcomputer - popularizing spreadsheets at a consumer level. So Yes, Rich Harris got it
Microsoft confirms Windows 10x is not coming in 2021, and likely never will
I didn't see this discussed, so here goes.

Why is that sanctioned sometimes means allowed and sometimes means disallowed.

You can say, an action was sanctioned, meaning it was approved by someone in power. You can say an action was sanctioned, meaning it was punished, presumably because it wasn't approved. And you can say unsanctioned to mean it wasn't approved, or to say it wasn't punished. What the hell, English?
More like cam industry...
To add my experience. I looked at rolling out Coinbase commerce a couple of years ago and then again a couple of months ago. I found their current integrations lacked support or were seemingly abandoned.

Contacting general or merchant support often took over 2 weeks to get a response, which was a deal-breaker for any service that would inevitably impact customers on our end.
No, I think I addressed that point directly. It is morally wrong, or against principle, in my view to do things that cause people to starve to death and to impose arbitrary limits on things. When the only possible choice is between two wrongs, letting people starve or limiting the combustibility of our food, we should pick the least-wrong of the two options - limit food combustibility in order to feed more of the starving.

This is not abandoning a principle but rather picking a higher principle to follow when two or more principles conflict. The point I was making is that we are not currently in this situation. We aren't starving people by denying them access to the latest and greatest graphics cards for cheap.
> will we live to see the day of wanting to 'work for a faang' as seeming as morally repugnant as wanting to work for monsanto, blackwater, etc?

Unlikely; I still see resumes with Palantir on them and they're taken seriously in SV companies even outside of the military-industrial complex.

Ultimately most people don't have the energy or economic incentive to care as long as their $15k paychecks show up every month.
Facebook seems to really have become the whipping boy, despite their falling relevance. Imagine what these depression studies would look like if you did Reddit or 4chan.

Ok, sorry for being folksy, maybe this works better.

A certified truck driver crashes their truck because they didn't follow the strict safety procedures that the trucking regulatory body set to prevent said crash. They were hauling Anhydrous Ammonia. The resulting blast kills 4 million people globally.

Are you going to make them take more safety lessons before letting them haul again?

Or will hearing them then say “it was a cosmic accident, why should anyone be allowed to haul” absolve them of negligence?

Maybe to further your point, should everyone stop hauling Anhydrous Ammonia, or should just the person who let the accident happen?
Yes. It must be social media.

> "The correlational evidence showing that there is a link between social media use and depression is pretty definitive at this point," said Jean Twenge, a psychology professor at San Diego State University. "The largest and most well-conducted studies that we have all show that teens who spend more time on social media are more likely to be depressed or unhappy."

> Correlation is not causation, and one area of further study is whether greater social media usage leads to poor mental health outcomes or whether those who are depressed and unhappy are drawn to spend more time on social media.

These are correlational studies. They aren't saying that they have evidence that Facebook causes depression. They're saying that increased social media usage is correlated with depression.

Stepping back, it appears that screen time is correlated with depressive symptoms, with or without social media. One such study: Association between screen time and depression among US adults https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5574844/ This includes watching TV or simply using a computer for leisure of any sort.

I know Facebook is a popular villain, but we shouldn't be jumping to conclusions that this data means Facebook causes depression or that Facebook is uniquely worse than other forms of screen time in its correlation with depression.

Someone learned from the Cisco hardware glut in the dot com crash!
No, my point isn't irrelevant, and you thinking it is means you almost certainly missed it. Most of the world's value is speculative in nature (derivatives, credit, real estate, you name it), so I couldn't care less about the crypto derivatives market, or the "normal" derivatives either. Neither are preventing me from using crypto as a store of value. At the end of the day, people speculating the value of crypto does nothing to detract from its core function as a decentralized ledger. I know this to be fact, because I have and continue to use it as money, and no amount of smug pseudo-intellectual retorts can change that. The briefest of cursory internet searches will disprove your idea that companies don't want to hold crypto - there's been massive buy in from very significant companies. Eg Sotheby's, a company that has existed since the 1700s. But they must be fools who don't know what they're doing, right?
It's very odd, I use to use Instagram and it would make me depressed. IDK how to explain, I don't even have any friends on there I follow. Just something about seeing everyone at their best 100% of the time, doing amazing things 100% of the time, never facing adversity 100% of the time.

I know it's not realistic but it still gets to your head.

I uninstalled it from my phone I feel better about myself after a few weeks.

I'm guessing most of, if not all, social media is the same. I'm slowly trying to ween myself off but it is so meticulously addictive.
I guess it depends on who is doing it. If that's not your experience yet, it could be. Lean in on the type system, and make it work for you. The fewer bugs you leave room for, the fewer you get.
We optimized the service to work with any container instead of eliminating cost. If you're not getting requests you have a reduced cost for consumed memory and instances but by keeping one warm it makes it so you don't have to engineer around cold starts.

> "I want to buy coins but the existing hodlers are all colluding to not let me"

This isn't the problem. The problem is, "I want to buy enough coins to stake without being diluted but existing hodlers are all colluding to not let me by charging me a price equal to the total expected returns the staked coins would produce" The emphasized parts are where PoS has trouble. The market forces governing PoS incentivize hodlers rich enough to stake to never allow more stakers to arise -- the act of selling ETH is now also the act of giving up future revenue from keeping it and staking it.
Facebook may not cause depression but they seem to be cigarette-maker defensive about it.
They cannot restrict anything unless they end computing freedom first.
Your comment is great and pretty detailed, but there is one thing that really threw me off (otherwise, I can not agree enough with everything else you wrote). You mentioned that the CRT perspective is that math (objective truth) is racist -- while I can think of a couple of CRT claims that with some mental gymnastics can be forced to sound that way, I do not really see that claim being made. Could you point to scholars (CRT mainstream, not random crazies on the internet or opinion writers in magazines) that actually hold that opinion?
