After a brief glimpse at the documentation, I am missing a feature comparable to Kafka's partitioning. Well, the protocol [1] briefly mentions it, but it does not seem to be exposed.

Getting insights into the roadmap for this would certainly be interesting...

Log rentention is probably the main reason. Event sourcing typically would need some kind of snapshot to be calculated to replace the head of the log before it is deleted.

If you had unbounded storage you could perhaps.

I have been using this setup for a few months now, and generally it works really nicely, except for clang_12 on Mojave and Python packages.

When you combine direnv with shell.nix or default.nix by adding "use nix" in a `.envrc` file, it autoloads the Nix shell environment when cd’ing to a directory and it is amazing for development!

You’re speculating that the negative outcomes we know exist would have happened absent divorce. Maybe that’s true maybe it’s not. Between my wife and I we’ve seen both, and I don’t know what’s worse mental health wise.

But in terms of just bread and butter issues, divorce is much harder on the kid. It really messes up family finances unless the parents are really well off. There’s a lot of disruption of home life if there is joint custody, and the documented effects of fathers not being present if there isn’t joint custody. If there are boyfriends or girlfriends that come in and out that can be a source of a lot of problems as well.
Array languages are arguably more abstract. Rank polymorphism allows semantically the same program to work over various array ranks, where the execution meaning is derived from the context which is the shape of the argument. You can find these in some natural languages, which can have single phrases which you cannot know what it means unless you have the wider context.

Next, array languages abstract away the execution strategy of loops. You as a programmer do not pick whether you use an accumulator or divide-and-conquer in your loops. Some good parallel libraries like Rust's rayon arguably have this feature in the imperative model, but it's not exactly a language feature of Rust.

W.r.t. machine languages, array programs do not have typing information which I think is the case for all modern intermediate representations.
Genuine question: what is it that you need from Kafka partitioning?
Thanks, I only skimmed this headline and assumed “secretive” meant groups of developers set up their own AWS/GCP/Azure accounts because they were hitting walls with the company’s IT dept.

You're thinking of blasphemy. "Vulgar" means "coarse" or "unrefined". It used to mean "concerning the common language", i.e. as spoken by ordinary people; not the literary language, or the legal language, or the clerical language.

i remember listening to a lecture on this in my business class before all these issues, we watch a video on outsourcing and how this is the first of their planes that used an advanced supply management system to outsource. traditionally boeing did most of their major sourcing from mainly the united states, the united states has some of the strictest air safety laws in the world so previously it was nearly impossible to source overseas due to supply chain parts reliability. guess that is still the case then

> Finally everything you said about macros and loop can be applied to other languages and the standard library. If nobody's going to write anything as complex as printf(), why does C need variadic functions? If nobody's going to write anything as complex as itertools, why does python need higher-order functions and generators?

IMO the essence of good language design is balancing expressiveness with enough constraint to make code understandable. I agree that printf is a mistake (string interpolation is enough of a special case that it's better as a language-level builtin). As for itertools I'd say that I do write code that's just as complex as the itertools builtins, but also that the itertools builtins don't hurt code readability so much because they're all (more or less) legitimate functions that can be reasoned about compositionally. Code that contains a call to a complex itertools builtin is not particularly hard to understand, because even the most complex itertools builtin returns a plain(ish) value that obeys simple rules. Not so for code that contains a call to a complex macro.

> Lisp does not have a "complex" macro system. It has one of the simplest extension systems of any language I've used that has an extension system.

"complex macro" system rather than complex "macro system", but yeah, I expressed myself badly. The problem isn't complexity per se (and as you say, the actual system is very simple) but that it's an unconstrained one where a macro can do almost anything.

> There's plenty to hate about lisp, but the fact that it's possible to write bad macros is not one of them.

I disagree. In my experience the main reason people give for moving away from lisp on any given project is "maintainability", and if you dig a little deeper that usually boils down to "we wrote too many bad macros". And a lot of the "limited tooling" complaints boil down to the effectiveness of IDEs etc. being limited by the presence of macros.

> For more structured content this is not possible: the natural output of TeX is a sequence of graphics boxes for the glyphs, or something like a DVI format. It is too late to retain semantic informations, e.g. about mathematical formula.

I think this applies to the natural output of TeX's "mouth" as well, i.e. one could exapnd LaTeX macros till one obtains TeX primitives, but at that point the information on structure is already lost.
You can use lambda, JavaScript, any .NET language, any language that knows COM.

Those that only use VBA only have themselves to blame.
I would rephrase the OP's argument to "capitalism is the best humanity has offered so far". Or to paraphrase Churchill "capitalism is the worst form of economy except for all those forms that have been tried from time to time". Note: I only mean real-world, tried-and-true forms of economies. Not in books, not utopias, only real societies. Because not even this capitalism is "by the book", many countries and many epochs defined it differently, with unions, with subsidies, with with with... there's a lot to be improved, but I still argue we didn't have better (or less bad, if you want).

In non tech companies it's super rare to have install permissions in my experience (Manufacturing/Automotive/Aerospace etc.) most companies are running proprietary software from a few key engineering software players, and very rarely there's some team writing legacy but hyper specialised FORTRAN / C / C++ engineering analysis tools.

It's a big issue to build tools for others to use - an excel file on a shared drive somewhere might be developed by one person with python installed and elevated permissions but used by 50 with no python installation etc.

Of course when companies do it - through trade associations or lobbying - it's seen as natural and necessary for their survival.

Reading articles like this makes me appreciate living in the EU. It's not always great, but clearly it could be worse.

Article 1 of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights states "Human dignity is inviolable. It must be respected and protected."
I feel like that would be broken were we to allow this behaviour towards workers.
Indeed. Funny to see this article pop up now because I've been considering the purchase of a USB volume knob for this exact reason.

The Touch Bar volume control is almost right except it's too damn slow. Dragging the volume button works, but the control doesn't start for another 500ms. Try touching it and immediately swiping all the way left, the finger will leave the bar before the control opens. Sigh.

Not OP, but what I need from Kafka partitioning is guaranteed message ordering (per partition key).

Speaking from practice in a country where unions are a traditional thing, strong unions can and will screw over a workplace. It's usually about a show of power and abusing veto ability to stay in power until the place stagnates, loses competitive status and disintegrates.

The overarching theme goes wider.

For one it is about workers having some say in their lives outside of voting with their feet. Collective bargaining is one proven way to achieve that.

The other is about the dehumanization of work environments with the help of "AI" AKA software. Similarly there are companies that force you to install spyware on your working device.

For anyone interested, another more sympathetic figure to contrast with Marat and the like is Camille Desmoulins. A lawyer before the revolution, he engaged in the same 'rage-culture' diatribes as Marat -- until he realized he had gone much too far and began to speak against the Terror. Of course, he lost his head. Just his Wikipedia page is quite an emotional ride.

For the past 15 years or so, I have been using a TypeMatrix keyboard (2030 USB, Dvorak).

For me, the best part of the keyboard is the ortholinear layout. This is really a great feeling to just extend/retract a finger to reach to above below row. It has dedicated function row (which for debugging is for me a must have).

I would recommend anybody with pain to try an ortholinear layout, be it from company X or Y, I really think it is a massive improvement against the standard non symmetric layout.
Then it looks like France is pure liability at this point.
Locked down devices. Then making more money from selling subscriptions, developer certificates, running "app stores", advertising services, etc.

To get the full functionality from the device, it is difficult to avoid obtaining an "AppleID". There is an "incentive" for users to sacrifice privacy and control to Apple. That appears to be intentional. Then the after purchase data collection and storage begins.

I am glad these practices have not spread across the entire hardware industry. Imagine buying an SBC and being asked to purchase an "RPi Developer Certificate" or register a "SiFiveID".
How history repeats itself...

The original Commodore PET [1] had such a keyboard layout [2,3], this was seen as a disadvantage compared to rivals like the Apple-II and the TRS80 which sported "real" (staggered) keyboards. The oddball layout mostly was the result of Commodore starting out as a company making calculators where the square layout is the norm. They moved to a "real" keyboard for the next version [4]. Fast-forward a few decades and that original PET layout starts to become innovative again. Maybe one of these companies should sell a portable version of the PET keyboard with similar keycaps and colour, it would probably sell quite well.

It takes some time but you'll learn that you need to set the sound output differently in the Windows taskbar itself.

Speaking from practice in a country where unions are also a traditional thing (Denmark), in fact so traditional our whole way of working and negotiating salary is based on it - I think strong unions are a wonderful thing that benefits the workers a lot.

There are several countries with strong unions and a tradition of unions taking part in company matters, a good example would be my place, Germany. I have never seen a union "screwing over" a company, but many times have I seen complains that the unions screwed the company over from people that directly or indirectly profit from weak or no unions.
Not sure about "hailed by", but that perception is probably driven largely by the market position of the Macs Apple put it into first. There is no Mac Mini or Macbook Air that isn't entry level.

Speaking from practice in a country where unions were strong for many decades, the German economy was doing pretty well all the time and if Germany loses out at some point it is hardly the union's fault (for example, the pressure to remain such a high net exporter seems hard to maintain forever).

What kind of reasoning is it to look for one or a few examples of individuals screwing up and then claiming it as a property of the species? I think we found more than one criminal company or CEO, but you would not use that as an example for how useless or even bad companies and CEOs are.

I would also have preferred that OP instead of pointing to the name of the source (and nothing else!) would at least have added something about the actual content of the linked article. It seems to me to be rarely justified to argue by just pointing at the source of the argument as if that is a counter argument to the actual argument that was made (which at that point remains unexplored and unknown, implying it's not even worth looking at it - but it was still worth formulating a comment?).
I assume that you mean solutions where x is in R here
I find that most propaganda comes from unions as they increasingly seek a political relationship with workers rather than the economic relationship that workers want.

On any union site - there are terms like "solidarity" with images of fists raised rather than actual data about improvement of wages or working conditions.

This is why unions get trounced in votes by real workers, things like Prop 22 pass with easy margins, etc.
That would be very unusual (unorthodox) definition of Pi though.
You would need to get the leaders of your country and other countries in the EU to request that their commissioner push forward a change and then get your MEPs to agree to that change.

“Would you kindly'… Powerful phrase. Familiar phrase?”
Unions have no general and inherent self-defense against corruption, so the larger, more powerful and more hierarchical they become, the more these kinds of problems can (and will) arise. Similar things can happen to worker coops, foundations and other organizations that emerge from the need of having a counterbalance to corrupted institutions and corporations.

The only solution is to maintain and expand democratic decision making from within. An organization that claims to be about the people, its members, absolutely has to be run by those people directly.
Top Better Proposals Alternatives
Decades of anti-union propaganda, sure, but also decades of self-serving, power-hungry, and occasionally outright corrupt organizations that do not serve the interests of workers.

Workers are not dumb, do not lack agency nor are as influenceable by propaganda as one might think - this a myth perpetuated by the paternalistic left, which has actually served it terribly - and in many cases have freely chosen to ignore or root out these organizations.
