A group of politically-motivated actors who have an interest in the other side of the argument think they have found serious errors? Color me shocked. Sorry, but I don't believe anyone in the BIRD group. Guess we will wait for the real data to emerge and I can save my 'I told you so' for then.
Yup. I really don’t fault authors or journalists for the ridiculous headlines their editors foist upon everyone. It’s SOOO frustrating. This headline will absolutely be used as fodder to oppose EVs and maintain the status quo ICE-centrism.

If your code and tests are so opaque that the reviewer can't understand them without physically running and modifying the code, then as a reviewer you should ask the author to make it clearer.

Because otherwise that's how you get write-only code. Things like code style and documentation can make a big difference, and review time is when you can help enforce them and build team culture and knowledge.

Is it a dupe though if it's a blog post, as opposed to the earlier Github submission?
When your codebase is 5+ years old and was written by 10+ engineers, 2/3 of those are not working here anymore, all you have is commit history linked to task tracking database. So it is naturally the first step of working on a new feature: get to know the subdomain, find corresponding sub-namespaces, look into commit history of those and find related task and specs.

Or you may just punch in a lot of code in hope it will find somehow it's place in codebase and be consistent with other code and readable by your successors and won't break some edge cases not covered by autotests.

I disagree. You likely want to evolve the plugin API over time to let people implement more effects, you need to update to keep up with the preferred audio API for each platform (Windows, Linux and Mac each have at least one), and you need to support new input/output formats. Without that, Audacity will be we useful as any abandonware application - likely works, but will limit the way of working in the modern world.

Not really? What you are saying applies to anything that uses hashing of some sort, where the goal by design is to have completely different outputs even with a single bit flip.

And "resilience" is not a precise enough term? Is just recovering after errors due to flips? Or is it guaranteeing that the operation will yield correct output (which implies not crashing)? The latter is far harder.

No, I will be surprised if the critique is retracted. The pro-invermectin tribe have gone all-in on this particular lie and no amount of science is going to change their minds. You are wrong. The invermectin-pushers are wrong. In a few months we will have you continuing to try to work the refs when study after study shows it has no significant effect, and by this time next year it will join hydroxychlroquine in the list of failed treatments pushed by politically-motivated actors.
Your right! So simple but I say this because I've never seen a well funded campaign or organization spreading this message.

We have large organizations with great solutions tackling climate change, starving children, etc....

I guess maybe like war, spreading this message would hurt pockets that are far too deep to be challenged.
did you consume this via smoking or sublingual administration?

your experience sounds like that which can happen when salvia divinorum is smoked.

the traditional method of consumption by the Mazatec people (who have used this plant medicine in ritual for thousands of years) is sublingual.

creates an incredibly different effect than smoking it. tends to be much more pleasant and easier to integrate.

I do know several folks who quite enjoy smoking it. They are in the minority, however.
Yeah, twice in one day (and 3+ times in a month) is a bit much and this post adds little new except some oddities like singling kubernetes in particular as 'the technology that helped train GPT-3'.
This is a good write up. Many years ago I decided to code/program a log based db, to see how far can I go. It was supposed to be Light-weight (Berkley DB was the inspiration). It had a working stream to file for all changes, and a compaction thread in the background.

What I learned... creating the main/basic features of non-relational database (log based), is easy... but it is the edge cases that hit you hard and dealing with them creates about 90% of the code.

It was a fun exercise from which I learned a lot.
"I think privacy and security is of paramount importance to everyone," Vestager said. "The important thing here is, of course, that it's not a shield against competition, because I think customers will not give up neither security nor privacy if they use another app store or if they sideload."

Spot on! There is a point of no return for us consumers too when the manufacturers use the argument of "security and privacy" to take so much control away from us. At that certain point, can you really say that you own the device you have paid for?
Oh yes so much this. 20 years here being told that today is the day of Linux on the desktop. Like hell.

Apple stuff is consistently good. It's not perfect but there's not really anything that kicks you in the balls every day to the point it makes you want to burn all your technology and live in the woods. About 5 minutes with any recently Gnome release on a Linux laptop makes me want to do that.

Linux is always 50% done. That last 30% to get it to Apple's 80% done is boring so they just rewrite everything again or fork some new clothes for the emperor.

The worst experience is windows. There's several layers and each one gets to about 33% done and is replaced with a new one. All the old layers sit there like rings in a tree, occasionally having to be gouged out to fix an obscure issue.
Ehhhh, I mean it's conceivable that there were some reasonable use cases for it, but in reality it was just a massive foot gun. I remember trying to debug some old VB6 code in the late 90s that used On Error Resume Next all over the place, and it would get into some unbelievably funky states, it was a miracle that it worked even some of the time. The truly scary thing about it was that even some system level errors would just get swallowed up and you had no idea that Really Bad Things(TM) were happening under the hood.

The equivalent to try/catch in VB was On Error Goto <ErrorHandlerLabel> which when used properly was more or less fine.

I thought from the title that this would be about actually changing social media - business models, different UX patterns to get rid of dark patterns and antisocial patterns - actual interesting ways to fix social media. Instead its more of the same old "we need more censorship online" rhetoric. It's a shame, there are actually interesting discussions to be had on the impacts of social media and the engineering of it, but it seems most people are not actually interested in solving the real problems.
Disk is unreliable anyways, so they already have to use software error correction. I suspect that protects against these kind of errors.
Larry Sanger, who co-founded Wikipedia, provides many examples of how Wikipedia articles are heavily biased towards mainstream viewpoints. https://larrysanger.org/2021/06/wikipedia-is-more-one-sided-...

> with only relatively minor changes

Relatively minor changes have huge effect on the content of articles. The linked article also addresses how Wikipedia has banned conservative sources from Wikipedia including Fox News, the Daily Mail, and the New York Post. "In short, and with few exceptions, only globalist, progressive mainstream sources—and sources friendly to globalist progressivism—are permitted."

Every claim in a Wikipedia article must be accompanied with a source. Claims that are only covered by conservative media and not covered at all by mainstream (liberal) media, cannot be referenced as a source in a Wikipedia article. This leads to conservative viewpoints being removed from articles. Which directly causes articles to become biased towards mainstream viewpoints.
On Error Resume Next is like if every statement was automatically wrapped in a try/catch that ignores the error.

Obviously there are some cases where it makes sense to ignore errors, but doing it unconditionally for all errors is horrible.

Mocks make me sad. They are so often misused by people with the best of intentions. I have seen so many tests that literally only assert the mock expectations and say nothing about the code under test. I have watched upgrades and refactors take 5x longer because someone steps on a landmine of overmocking. It is so common to see people mocking dumb data objects, containers, and pure functions - creating Frankenstein widgets that break all contracts the original had except for the 1 code path the original developer used 6 months ago. I've listened to DRY/SRP fanatics defend mocks until they realized that their tests were littered with unreusable, low fidelity copies of their production system in the form of mocks.

Mocks are a power tool and you can use them to do things that they are not the right tool for the job.
They may get tame if they get to know you. Then you can feed them (organic of course!) peanuts, which they take out of your hands, or from in between your index finger and thumb. Adorable little critters! Cranberries and Raisins also work and are very enthusiastically enjoyed, but I'm unsure if they are good for them in the long term.
This article didn't add anything to the conversation.

"Secret management" (i.e. having a non-ClickOps way to deploy secrets and a layer of security so that they're more than just not-configmaps) has been a black hole that has eluded our team for some time.

Should I use SOPS? Sealed Secrets? Vault? KMS? How does this integrate with our GitOps engine? Kustomize has no sensible way to pass secrets built in. ArgoCD actually has to be rebuilt from source to even try any of these options out.

Our current "best" practice is using Helm + Terraform, bootstrapping secrets with Terraform Cloud, and ensuring all services run in their own isolated namespace and service account. This feels inadequate.

At this point, I really have no idea how people are using secrets in the wild.
We Dutchies have one of the best flexible part-time work systems available I think. I think that because when I read HN or read job postings from other countries, or ask US people then I'm noticing that 40 or 40+ hours is much more common.

I've noticed that a 4 day work week has outsized mental health benefits compared to 5 days. Especially when your free day is at Wednesday. There's only so much "damage" a consecutive 2 days of work can do. That break on the Wednesday is truly a life saver. With that said, I'm noticing that if you want to upskill and immerse, then 5 days is better, but it comes at a cost, which is: not having a lot of time for much else since a lot of free time is actually spend on recuperation from the work day! That cost isn't there when you work 4 days since recuperation happens much faster.

Also, if you have remote possibilities at work, you can basically start doing what Tim Ferriss wrote in the 4 hour work week years ago. It's quite easy to travel and see the world in this mode. I guess even with kids? You have 3 whole days per person to figure stuff out. Well perhaps not anymore, but being able to determine your own work location is always beneficial (even if all you want to do is go to the office).

I think with a 3 day work week something even strangers happens. You're now capable of completely living a second live that can truly eclipse your work week (e.g. 4 day "work" weeks in your other life). I haven't experimented with this though.

A lot of fun can be had when you and your significant other both work 3/4 days per week :)

It won't make you rich, but the upside is that you get to enjoy life now and practice your mind every now and then at work ;-)

In that sense, I think Dutch people that truly fine tune this with regards to their needs, location expensens and so on can live a really rich life.
> a sign of poor code quality

Or really complex software. Those of us who work in B2B SaaS products know what it's like to understand what a block of code does, but not comprehend why it was written.

However, I don't disagree with this sentiment. I think what most devs fail to understand about git-history is that it's just another place for sparely populated documentation. Your commit history might be AMAZING, but chances are that nobody knows to look for it. There's just too many places where one has to reiterate intent and purpose (doc-string, inline comments, project specs). It's a lot to keep up with - especially for non-technical folk.

Solutions:

What worked best for my team to was a simple git precommit-hook shell script that just auto-tags the ticket number onto the start of every commit message. So `git blame` just points back to JIRA/Asana/Trello/Whatever you're using to document intent. That way, there's a single source of truth for developer documentation that is accessible by everyone.

At Google if there's something that needs explaining you'll see a tiny-url-link that just points to the Google Doc as an in-line comment (i.e: go/my-project-specification-doc). Commit messages do the same. This saves on copy-pasting multiple lines of purpose on every file and line of code.
The problem for this speculation is that given the types of experiments the WIV is known to have done, it is impossible to produce anything that looks remotely like SARS-CoV-2. The reverse genetics system used by WIV researchers is well known, and SARS-CoV-2 is simply not a product of it.
The big potential difference is that the early decentralized systems like Usenet and Relay treated costs and spam and paying their developers as out-of-band concerns. Whatever else you think of the newer stuff around blockchains, etc., it changes the game in just this way. If you want an online world not under the thumbs of Google/Facebook/Twitter/etc., you need a thesis about how the same takeover won't happen.

Ever spend significant time spelunking in the Linux kernel commit history [0]? They have a guide [1] on submitting good patches, and lots of care is taken to commit message quality.

The commits are quite helpful, not just for diagnosing errors but explaining philosophy and reasoning behind code changes [2]. I'm tremendously thankful for the amount of effort those developers put into this, because it helps newcomers come up to speed and follow development. In that kind of codebase, it would be virtually unapproachable otherwise.

Readian News – personalized news recommendations
Readian News is a news feed/recommendation service that focuses on source flexibility and user choice.

- When you use Apple News, Flipboard, or Google News, you will quickly realize that they only show articles from big publications, it might be impossible to find news about an interesting topic.

- There are different outlets with a different take on particular topics. Maybe Loudwire wrote a poor review for the latest Architects album, but some underground websites did an amazing job. You probably only gonna find what Loudwire said. It's always good to know alternative opinions. So at the moment, you have to trust these apps, no other choice.

- I have tried many services. The closest thing to what I needed was Feedly - RSS reader. But RSS is very inconvenient and clutter you with unneeded info you have to filter out every day, so it basically becomes another choir.

- Among everything I tried each had one or two good things about them, but none had enough to make me stay. So recorded everything that I would like to have in perfect service, that later would become Readian News.

- Let us know what you like and we will recommend you news and articles about it. Mute tags or blogs that you don't like. Build your perfect news feed.- Getting started is as easy as downloading our Android app or going to https://readian.io. You do not even have to give us your email if you do not want to (if you use an Android application). Of course, registering will let you also use our web version and you will never lose your subscriptions/history, but you absolutely don't have to.

- Start reading by downloading our Android app on Google Play Store or visit our website https://readian.io for more information.
We do everything in our spare time after our day jobs. We have been working on this project for over two years.

>> If an author did not grant license to his code, then nobody can use it, by default, according to copyright law.

this is false. Fair Use is not about the license, it is a set of exemptions from copyright. for example I do not need a license to reproduce and publish a snippet of book for the proposes of review / criticism. The author may not like what I have to say, and did not grant me a license but I certainly can use the snippet under copy right law.

The Legal Experts of ML are relaying I believe on the "education" exemption in Fair use for their "training of ML models is fair use". That will be an interesting case for sure

He's not a US citizen, he was outside the USA. So what?

If we tried to arrest every person outside the USA who is trying to do something to/in the USA we'd have to put out arrest warrants for millions of people. We'd be, and are, the laughingstock of the diplomatic world.

Aside: we apparently assassinate hundreds of individuals outside the USA every year (something that Obama complained about IIRC ) with God-knows-what justification. We're well on our way down the Road to Ruin.

I'm hardly a bleeding-heart, but for the USA intelligence agencies to dog Assange to death is immoral, unethical and illegal even under our legal system.

Pursuing Assange is the worst of all causes: a fishing expedition, a routine overextension of international and national law, legal malpractice, and a giant fool's errand for every man involved in this.

Only a psychopath would put the pursuit of Assange on their resume. Of course we likely have plenty of those working for us. Apparently they float to the top, like shit.

jollybean says>"I think your comment implies an general ignorance of the situation."

Nope. But your reasoning above amply demonstrates a bit of how the powers-that-be twist language, logic and reason to justify contemptible behavior and justify crushing an individual. You should write an "Anti-Declaration of Independence" for spies that outlines their grievances against free agents and how they should be able to kill/maim/wound/harm anyone, anywhere just b/c they are irritated with those agents' behavior.

An honest leader would publicly fire with malice every asshole who participated in or encouraged this shitfest and make sure the government never employed them again. Of course, that would be a bit (but only a bit) similar to doing to them what is being done to Assange! Perhaps that would be justice. I'll have to think about it.
It is what they are frequently trained on in school. That is one reason for it to be an industry standard.

I guess a lot of this should be driven by leadership team. On the contrary I see leaders themselves staying late in office, scheduling late evening status update meetings. And the developers also contribute to this. They stay up late, send status updates past midnight and then in the next company all-hands they are lionized for this.
No one even bothers to retrospect what inefficiencies are causing everyone to work crazy hours. And that how can someone remain productive with this.
