In a similar vein, I also get bothered by the unrealistic fact that there are never compatibility issues between any given device/technology.

Since we are talking about The Expanse, I think a great example is whatever protocol allows for characters to physically fling data from their devices to other people's devices with a simple swipe.

I'll ignore the fact that sometimes they do this in city streets where they are surrounded by many potential recipients and somehow always deliver the payload to the right person...

But how likely is it that every single device's manufacturer implements that protocol in the same, non-proprietary way?

I am wary of any claim to CFI without secure tracking of the call-stack to verify the return destination. You need to compare return destinations against a shadow call-stack. If you dont protect this call stack then attackers will just evolve slightly. You can encrypt/decrypt the return address grsecurity style but we know that this can still be bypassed.
I could assert all kinds of qualifiers as to why I should get everything I want for free, too.

That doesn't mean I'm justified.

And this isn't a document of immense historical import we're discussing. It's a short (and if you ask me, incompletely considered) book review. Just the same, if it were my work and people wanted to read it but they didn't want to pay I'd be at minimum very hurt, and probably pretty angry if they just started helping themselves to it while trading nothing in return. I'm sure you would be, too.

It's a bit of a professional slap in the face that one's work should apparently be free for all, but software should be highly paid for. Especially in a forum where a large number of the participants are highly paid relative to the rest of the world.
Yeah, it's like the whole "ant-strength" thing. They are really strong for their size.
I literally JUST donated the last of the textbooks I was keeping around. I looked up the prices on Amazon and some of these textbooks are still worth a lot of money (or at least offered for sale for a lot of money). This means I can document value for a nice tax break. One of the textbooks was listed for hundreds of dollars.

I kept a couple of the more interesting ones but overall I think I came out ahead with clearing out some dead weight and getting some value.

Donating an item is essentially a net of whatever the value of the item x your marginal tax rate. Definitely worth it over the hassle of selling it yourself, AND puts it into the hands of someone who needs it more.
Another great example is github - for awhile, trying to request a review from someone on a pull request would cause LastPass to "helpfully" pop up and prompt for an auto-fill, completely obscuring the list of users underneath.

How to Save Democracy from Technology (2020)
I don't agree. police should use discretion when deciding whether to make an arrest or write a ticket, and prosecutors should use discretion when deciding which cases to prosecute. we don't need to aggressively seek penalties for jaywalkers. but the crime statistics should represent, as accurately as possible, the actual amount of crime that occurs. otherwise, what is the point?

Tracking ethics aside, GDPR is expensive to comply with.

You don't even want to know how much my org spent on compliance. And we're not tracking people. We sell a service that you have to log into. Plumbing through right to forget and data export through a thousand microservices is a metric ton of engineering work. We had competing regulatory and compliance obligations, and our data models assumed immutability and no hard deletes. Yikes.

I agree with the intent of GDPR. But there are costs. And because of those costs, you can see certain companies choosing to exit the market or delaying a fix until they can budget it or shore up the necessary engineering talent.

Like it or not, but a news org is probably riddled with analytics throughout their stack. And I bet the smaller ones don't have staffing on hand to drop their burning fires and rewrite everything.

Edit: Glad I'm being downvoted for stating the 100% objective truth. I'm not even talking about tracking ethics - which is something I side with the GDPR on. I'm explaining the why, not siding with this site. Jfc, HN. Would you downvote your doctor for telling you bad news?
Agreed. I know a number of small business owners who prefer Squarespace for the ease of use and integration, and they've never thought about lock-in as a dealbreaker. I know some entrepreneurs and nonprofits who prefer WordPress for the FOSS and the ability to customize.

I think that most high income earners stay at that stage for the majority of their career after reaching that level.

Ask HN: Cursor-Based GraphQL Pagination and Sequential IDs
Hey everyone,

So I'm implementing cursor-based pagination through GraphQL and curious how everyone else is handling their ids throughout their system to fully conform to the idea.

My schema had a mix of sequential (bigserial) and non-sequential ids and I'm looking at coalescing everything around sequential ULIDs for everything to standardize across the whole schema.

Curious how everyone else handling this internally.
I may be biased since I am holding and mining crypto, but I find recent slew of articles talking up the evils of crypto amusing. From eco evils to national security. Crypto is the culprit and banning it will bring salvation.

Just today my superior shared WSJ opinion piece saying it should be banned altogether. I genuinely chuckled. It was ignored for so long, but only now when it may be genuinely hard to just put down, because real players joined the fray, did the offensive PR started.

Traditional laundering operations are typically very expensive and subject to heavy scrutiny. Banks or other washers take a big cut. And if you're here talking banks which have been caught doing this then it isn't very secret anymore. Crypto can be laundered quickly, cheaply and safely. And in unlimited quantities.

Frankly, as a return student, most students I've encountered at my crappy state school are incredibly entitled. On top of that, don't know how to code.

Logically speaking, it doesn't make any sense. It should be easier to start families because families earn twice as much.

Practically speaking, people will spend their money on limited resources like land and basically lose out on most of the gains. That's the primary way "housing as an investment" earns money, by extorting the wages of future workers. If there are more workers (women and men) then you get to earn even more despite doing absolutely nothing to deserve the money.

Truth is not an absolute defense for other legal cases in the US. The legal system is statistically successful at getting innocent people to take plea deals and legally does not require the penalties for a losing party.

I think this is a personal preference. I always read for pleasure and have almost always read a single book at a time. Books for professional and immediate practical purposes aside, theoretically I have one fiction and one nonfiction book going at a time, but in practice I switch between them infrequently and usually finish one before switching to the other.

I think the author wants to say "read however you like," but he can't help adding, "and this is how you like it, so this is how you should do it," which, even if he's right about a particular person's preferences, is contrary to the message that you shouldn't worry about right and wrong ways to read, or worry about how other people think you should do it.

But what reasons and are they relevant to this use? For instance, I can think of one really good reason (actually several different ones justifying different formats getting used depending on the actual use case, but they can all be summarized the same way when it comes to not using JSON): Shipping an AST between endpoints one of which is a web page and therefore has JSON as its best supported generic object serialization format isn’t the use case.

I mean, personally, I don't really care about reputation of academia, but given that you described a horrible story where somebody basically tried to ruin your career, and given that you decided not to name specific people or institutions, it seems that the whole (UK) academia will have to take the reputation hit for the alleged scandal.
Probably that the vaccine is somewhat irrelevant: though that's up for grabs since what your body targets vs. what the vaccine targets will be subtly different.

I'm more interested that this means that quite likely, COVID-19 will be eradicated: with not many advantageous mutation pathways, and if vaccines are conferring immunity forever, it's pretty much going to be burned out of the population one way or the other.

The way I understand the comment :

With an interpreter, the JavaScript source is compiled to some bytecode, then the bytecode is executed in a loop, instruction by instruction.

With a compiler (not jit), the whole bytecode would be further fully compiled to some C apis before being executed, making it effectively an "ahead of time" compilation.

The catch is : since the code never was executed, there is very little static information to work with, so the compiled output is often just a giant unrolled interpret loop. The compiled version can be like 10% faster on very hot JavaScript loops compared to the interpreted version.
More personally knowing the person. You develop a friends network of people, and everyone in that network is credentialed enough to get into a college and do reasonably well. So they'll get opportunities, and help you get opportunities.

Speaking primarily from my experience as a Comp Sci undergrad at Virginia Tech... I had good opportunities from my network on graduation. Which helped me grow my network even further when I got a job. I suspect if I went to MIT or something, that network would be even more substantive.
I am pretty sure all the crypto in the world would not be enough to maintain well documented laundering schemes that cartels use.

It's not that banning it will bring salvation, it's just that it's one less evil to worry about, with no clear downsides as crypto really isn't used for anything good.

In 99% of React apps, React “establishes a runtime environment and then calls into your code to respond to specific events”, as you put it.

I don't know what the true proportion is, but obviously a lot of people do choose to use React that way. This has never been in dispute.

My point is that you don’t have to. You can keep things simple with React and keep responsibilities cleanly separated within your code. If you do, you will never have a lot of the problems that people who choose to tangle everything together within their React components can run into.

This whole discussion is about whether modern web development practices are good practices, so I think that’s a fair point to make regardless of how many people currently choose to do things the other way.

We don't move quite that often - we're usually on two-year cycles, so we just sign standard 1+1 leases. As one of the sibling comments said, the local market heavily influences the housing stock and we've always been in big expat-heavy cities where renting furnished places is pretty common.

It's also a thing to negotiate furnishing with the landlord, e.g. I'll pay an extra $100/mo in rent if you agree to do an Ikea run and you can keep it at the end of the lease.

If I need to be somewhere for <1y but >1m, I'll try to deal directly with AirBnB hosts but sometimes you just have to eat the borderline usurious serviced apartment fees.
