Minor quibble: religion is about social control, i.e., God says you can do this but not that.

I'm not trying to attack religion (happy to do that elsewhere), just trying to clarify the language being used. Specifically, this game of calling people who believe in a certain morality religious is dishonest. Just because I believe that all people should be treated equally regardless of race, creed, color, gender, sexuality, nationality, etc -- that doesn't make me religious. I hope at worst it makes me avoid being a "bad person".

It's not an unreasonable way to think. It seems job security is important to you. Any company that works to mitigate climate change etc should also provide that security,and the cherry on top is that you'll be part of the solution.
Last time I built something on MacOS, this was basically just a feature of the clipboard API that each app could use independently. When copying to the clipboard, you could declare numerous formats for what was copied, and any app receiving clipboard input could state that they only accepted one format.

e.g. copy a jpeg file and you can paste it into Slack, and it will automatically add the image to the post. Paste it into the terminal and you'll get the absolute path to the file. Those sound like sensible defaults that are essentially 'context sensitive paste'.

You could copy a link from a webpage and store both the HTML version and a raw-text version in the clipboard, probably a version that used an annotated string, too.

For the same reason, yeah... this isn't as intuitive when it comes to software like Excel.

> Reddit has lots of competent people. So, surely they have the data to back up their decisions. And the data must be saying that these changes are working.

Sadly this is not as much of a truism as one might expect. Even competent people tend to design experiments that are biased towards the desired results, and even competent people tend to interpret their experimental results in a favourable light. And even competent people get in a feedback loop where their metrics are chasing a local minima, and they don't have the political capital within the organisation to convince management to take a short-term hit to the metrics for a prospective global improvement in the future...

>Vinyl flooring, vinyl siding, one-piece shower stalls, and laminate countertops are examples of innovations that reduce the cost and increase durability.

Vynil is one of the worst thing you could have in your house. And the production of it is horrible for the environment too.

Vynil chemical group is not toxic, but the "Polyvinyl chloride" people are referring to when they talk about "Vynil" is. It is extremely toxic because of the chemical additives it has like plasticizers that are breathable and never go away in your body.

It is also extremely toxic when burn as it generates dioxins, and flame retardants are added to it, also very toxic.

It is also extremely cheap so people use it so much over big surfaces.

It is great for plumbing and I would only use it for that use.

But don't use it on big surfaces because you and your family are going to breath its additives when it is exposed to sunlight.
My Newton's-laws-only bullshit:

bottom air:

"bounces" down, simple enough. Force on wing up and back.

top air:

bounces up off front of wing (because it's not infinitely thin), but then is unimpeded by wing. It get's slightly more compressed at the very front, but then as the wing goes down this big gap is left. The air isn't going to bounce on the air above significantly because air compressed and this is laminar flow to boot: Viscosity > internia-ness.

The about-to-be-vacuum means the bottom air pushes the wing up more easily, usually to the point where there is no more vacuum, just low pressure. But if you go really fast (or are a hydrofoil?) then there might be an actual vacuum.

The vacuum "initially" just accelerates the air vertically, but once things get going since the airfoil "carves out a triangle", the air might speed up horizontally too. There is air behind it (front re aircraft heading) pushing on it but not air in front which is getting "untraffic jammed" away.

There we go, I think this accounts for everything in the article without any Bernoulli. Screw Bernoulli.

What if the database itself contained all business logic? (but no plumbing)

Every table has a function that is the only function that can write/insert into that table. The functions themselves are just records in a specific table, which the database schedules to run based on global access activity (it prefers to prioritize functions that consume more records than they produce, to keep space tight).

Hi and thanks for your reply!

As a non-Linux user, I hadn't heard of ALSA before, but looks pretty great.

I have never run a Linux machine, although always been tempted.

I mainly use Ableton Live which has no Linux version although apparently might run via Wine, but probably with a few glitches along the way especially where plugins are concerned.

I wish there was an enthusiastic group of clever people putting out open source drivers for OSX! Linux has such a great community.
I think we already have the future of housing: mobile homes.

With remote work gaining acceptance, location will lose its premium for many. Socially we have pared down our living arrangements to small nuclear families if that, which can fit in a mobile home.

Mobile homes offer better protection against deterioration of a real estate or job market, and also better opportunities for moving to a growing market. Mobility is in the name.

Trailer parks have a bad rap because of classism. But the less well-off are often trailblazers because they need to make things work with less.

The mobile homes of tomorrow need not be run-down single-wides. They could be more luxurious and larger if broken apart into components.

I think this is mostly a marketing and image problem which is only starting to change, mostly because of cost-of-land pressures.

It specifically mentions vinyl siding as a cheap option that better-off consumers spend money to avoid in favor of more expensive wood or brick.

Extravagance is perhaps, at times, a matter of perspective and opinion. Some might consider consciously choosing more costly materials, even if they happen to be natural materials, to be matters of aesthetic choice that increase cost. Or even expensive tastes.

If I'm reading this correctly, optimizing construction costs is a very difficult problem because a huge part of the costs is transportation, not the material itself or assembly thereof.

Transportation is by nature highly distributed among a wide range of actors, unlike industries like semiconductors where the costs are centralized in a factory where a single agent can optimize everything.

In other words, the majority of improving construction costs is actually a political problem, and engineers are unsuited to optimizing it. Transportation costs can be reduced, but only at a collective, national or state-wide level. Moving vast quantities of lumber, insulation, wiring, drywall, roofing and other housing materials across state lines is much more a political coordination problem than an engineering one. Sure, a team of engineers could design a more efficient, cost effective transportation method - but how would consensus ever be achieved to actually build the thing and align all the disparate interest groups to rally around it rather than opposing it?

My hot take is that in the current era (at least in the United States) "Smart" people have neglected political concerns in favor of technical concerns. But the risks aren't technical, they are political, so this is inefficient. The problem will not be solved simply by engineering, no matter how clever the engineers are, if they are limited to purely technical approaches.

In my experience, achieving perfect determinism across two architectures is a problem that cannot be easily hand waved away.

For 99% of cases it is fine, but when you run into that last 1% it hurts.
I am super bad with terminology so I'll apologize beforehand.

I've found that a good way to avoid this ownership conflict in OO is to categorically prohibit any public accessors to _inherited_ variables, be it at construction phase or later, be it passively (via setters) or actively (via observers).

And there should be only ONE provider of said value, also I've found is sometimes better to have a hot spot where all nodes converge and use it as a nursing node, and JUST THEN, fork this nursing node into every let's say "logic gate requirement" node (with a cached state each).

This is a good approach IMO as long as these smaller nodes are required by more than 2 observers, if not, then a simple specialized observer is the way to go.
Sure, but unless you claim their nuclear program is mostly funded directly by the hacking this is not a particularly targeted sanction. If you insist on targeting just their general economy it's probably better to go after coal or chemicals.

In any case, the OP was obviously talking about which technology should be denied for the purpose of it not being directly used to construct a bomb. To reply "we should deny them money" is quite beside the point.
I don't understand how this relates to what I said without more details about what "lost" means, sorry.

If you mean Git had issues finding some specific code motion to show in a diff, you can try one of the other diff algorithms, or adjust the threshold for rename/copy detection. AST-based differs would also suffer this issue; a "nice diff" is not a formal problem and does not have a universal solution.

If you mean you once had a mis-merge that dropped some code you didn't want to drop, this won't go away with AST-based diffs. It will just happen at the token level instead of the line level.

If you mean it's generally hard to deal with collapsing lots of branches with shared history, that's true but would also be true with AST-based approaches. This is the situation something like pijul could help with, but also raises all the other tradeoffs of snapshot vs changeset based approaches.
I don't understand the negativity in some of the comments. I thought this was an excellent article.

Two main takeaways for me:

- While immutability can prevent some state-related bugs, it will not prevent them if the state changes are not commutative

- I especially liked this sentence:

> This is actually very similar to the problem with imperative languages – since everything runs sequentially, it’s hard to see what parts of the code have a true sequential dependency and which parts do not.
The fact that their new features (RPAN and chat) aren't available via the API is telling enough in my eyes.
I feel like that's based on some naturalism fallacies. Durable plastic is more efficient to produce that growing a tree. And sourcing thingy locally isn't always practical. You want the best lumber for the job that will last and that's usually cultivated at scale. You can chop down trees from your backyard or you'll destroy your neighborhood.

The delays in Teams kill me inside. I press the up arrow to fix an error, wait for editor to initialize, then wait for the cursor to move to the end of the text, then edit the typo and re-send. The waiting part is 500-1500 ms. The overall responsiveness is abysmal.
I agree with this to an extent. It is good to have a product and some initial paying customers to understand who your customers are and how they are using your product before ever contacting a marketer, but a good marketer will be able to help you refine and position the product as well. Beware of the promotion only marketer. Promotion is just one part of marketing, but many—dare I say most—marketers see it as their only role.

Oh, I worry about losing mine too, but if I'm doing anything that might pose a risk of it falling out of my pocket, I'll have my backpack with me and can stash it safely there. Other than that, it's either on my person, on my notebook, or in my hand. (Or in the car, if I'm visiting with my friends with the dog. I puppysat her for a week once, during what must have been an impressionable time in her youth - she greets me the same way every time as if it were the first time in years.) I might just be unusually good at keeping track of my things, though!

The clip is useful for the reason you describe, and that serves the user's purpose in a way I think most pen reviewers don't use a Decimo or Vanishing Point for long enough to discover. The whole design intent of the pen is that it should be easy and convenient to use entirely one-handed, and having the clip placed as it is helps the pen nestle neatly between the user's fingers as they change grip from "uncapping" the pen to writing with it.

After a while, just like with any other click pen, you barely have to look at it or even think about it to do it - I haven't done the latter in so long that I had to do the former just now in order to know how I use it at all. Most of the time I just use it. It's pure muscle memory at this point, and the clip is the only reason that can be true - not that the more deliberate process of preparing a conventional, round-sectioned fountain pen for use isn't pleasant in its own right, but the Decimo's lower overhead makes it much better suited to the way I think and write, as well as to regular carry and use with no need for special handling and no more need for special care than, say, my glasses.

I don't understand the worldwide disdain for the concrete paneled construction the article briefly mentions: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khrushchyovka

Most of the "badness" people associate with these, IMO, are due more to the fact that 1. in recent times they are inhabited by less well-off people 2. they usually need to be washed or painted, probably because they are inhabited by less well-off people who don't make it a priority 3. to the extent they are seen as crime/drug dens, that's because they have a stigma/are in disrepair so only poor people want to live there. It is possible for them to be nice, even moreso if they are new (and not poorly maintained, 60 years old). See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zelenograd as an example of a city with this style (go to Google images for more pictures). The whole city is like a park.

From an urban planning perspective, they have a lot of benefits. People can actually end up with a lot of green space in between buildings. They make it easy to set up bus or train-based public transportation, with walking a viable way to navigate toward a hub. The density creates obvious economies of scale in other areas. From a cost perspective, they are inexpensive to construct because of the economies of scale. The article mentions them as one of the few building styles amenable to mass-production/assembly off-site.

Probably my main gripe is that they are not often 'mixed use' and could perhaps do with shops on the first floor, though this is partially an artifact of the economic regime under which they were mostly built.
I haven't heard that claim before either.

The Wikipedia sources for the DNC hack article [0] say the RNC wasn't successfully hacked. "GOP" refers to the entire Republican Party so I suppose there could be emails from a different Republican origin than the RNC.

> intelligence organizations additionally concluded Russia attempted to hack the Republican National Committee (RNC) as well as the DNC but were prevented by security defenses on the RNC network.

Searching for a source for the GOP claim did remind me of internal WikiLeaks messages from 2015 showing at least Assange's preference for the GOP over Hilary Clinton.

Of course. But companies change all the time - today Apple is very privacy focused and we can reasonably say they wouldn't do such a thing. Can you absolutely guarantee that they won't in 2 years? In 5? in 10? What if the CEO changes and they think that ad-derived value is the best thing ever?

Like, this isn't meant to be a post against Apple btw. Just that I don't see a point in saying "company X did a bad thing, that's why I buy company Y, they would never do this!" - they don't right now, that's what counts. But for the future? Who knows.
