I'm not sure why this is an important stat. Isn't it good if there aren't gun crimes happening in a lot of places?
There won't be any consequences, because the police never face any consequences. There's no way to reform modern policing, the evidence shows little progress from decades of trying, which is why modern policing must be abolished and something entirely different needs to take its place. The police have resisted incremental reforms, so the only option now is drastic reforms.
Instead of everybody jumping on bandwagon and siding with every legislature to be PC, individuals and companies have right to challenge those laws or on how practical they are. These challenges will naturally yield better laws considering the huge wave already behind the electric vehicles.

"Toyota’s Indian subsidiary publicly criticized India’s target for 100 percent electric vehicle sales by 2030, saying it was not practical.", the keyword being not practical, country which struggles with electricity during summer and rations farmers electricity is legislating 100% electric?
> Are you saying you want to replace the specification with tests? That's really dubious to me.

That's pretty much it. The value is that tests can be automatically executed and verified. A specification document can't.

Writing a spec is still a step in the process - a bootstrapping step. The spec is a "write one to throw away" placeholder until you get far enough that the spec can be replaced with executable tests.

It’s not fine.

They split the screen last night into commercial and B-roll event (the athletes getting ready, warms ups, etc).

So 60% of the screen was commercial, 40% was something you would normally see with commentators talking about past performance, other athletes besides the USA, etc.

Nope, instead, we’ll just show more commercials even though we just came back from commercial break!
I often drive between Chęstochowa and Łódź in winter. I have no direct proof that it's from this exact plant, but the smell and smog is horrendous there.

What amazes me the most is how far it goes. From my anecdotal experience the smell goes 50-100km in radius depending on the weather.

If weather is "right" you can smell burning coal out of Katowice, though maybe smell comes from residential buildings as well, I am not sure. Maybe a local could provide better info.
While all the points are valid what scares me most about Julia is what is covered under the section "The core language is unstable".
Recently I tried the latest beta version and came across an issue - I just could not add packages. (`] add JSON` or
). No matter what package I tried to add, it failed with a stacktrace pointing to libuv.
I tried downgrading to lower versions of Julia but no luck.

Turns out it is a regression introduced by a commit dated Sep 23 2020. In libuv.

As I tried to fix it, I realized Julia uses a version of libuv that is significantly diverged from libuv main branch ("123 commits ahead, 144 commits behind libuv:v1.x"
as I write this comment) and the bug was in the code. Using the code from the corresponding function from libuv upstream fixed the problem.

To summarize

1. There's a bug introduced close to a year ago that breaks basic functionality on a mainstream operating system.
2. Julia has its own version of, of all things, libuv, that is significantly diverged from the original.
3. The bug is in one of the changes introduced.

While each of the above is defensible on its own. Taken together, they do scare me away from considering Julia for production use. I am hoping am wrong somewhere.

Devil's advocate: the difference between then and now is also in the visibility and metrics. If you have some black-box 'software coder' in an office that might pump out an artifact six times per year, do you really have any clue what is going on, what you are paying them for or how it stacks up against others, other tasks, other jobs, other features or other investments? And what if you need a feature now, and in a few weeks you need a different feature? What if there is a customer demand that changes, do you just continue building the 'old' request that is now worthless on delivery?
At least on the Apple TV app, I don't think that would be easy. It seems to have ads embedded into the video stream, or at least triggered at specific fixed timestamps in the video stream, and they disable seeking during ad playback, and when you seek across an ad timestamp, they skip you back to the previous ad timestamp, then after the ad finishes they skip you back to the timestamp you seeked to.

The problem is if you take any actionable idea as law, there is a pendulum swing to the other side to the point that you need a counter actionable idea to reset it.

OOP started like that, as an initial concept it made a lot of sense. Try to force OOP into anything you have a problem. Functional Programming, is the counter to OOP design, but it also has problems.

Same is true to having short functions doing one thing vs abstracting too early. Our industry is filled with counter points.

Even the "recent" shift to microservices, taking to the extreme they create new problems that monoliths didn't have.

...this is one of my biggest struggles as a developer currently, conflicting ideas that all make sense and trying to figure out which one I should apply for a specific piece of code.
The point is when someone has already established themselves as an idiot its pretty easy to dismiss them. The utility SirensOfTitan's comment is informing us that the person in question has already established himself to be an idiot. It is therefore relevant because anything the video says is already suspect, it can easily be dismissed. You don't have to go far in the video to establish this as the first statement in the video is a balance fallacy.

I'd say that the really huge generational divide is the supply-chainification of software development. I'm just barely old enough to remember the days when a software engineer was responsible for everything between the hardware and the UX. You wrote code that implemented algorithms and data structures; and made choices between what would be computed in CPU, stored in RAM, or paged to disk; and worked on the whole program from the network or disk layer up to the UI.

Now all of these are different roles. You have backend engineers and data engineers and data scientists and front-end engineers (who only deal with modern Javascript and its dozens of frameworks - even 10 years ago a front-end engineer was expected to know how a webserver and HTTP worked) and mobile engineers and AWS experts and Docker/Kubernetes experts to orchestrate it all. If you're actually responsible for the whole program, that's an architect or tech lead role and you don't actually write a whole lot of code. The jobs of each of the people who do write code largely consists of gluing together existing industry-standard frameworks. Algorithms and data structures are stuff you solve on a whiteboard to get the job, and then you never use them once you have the job.

It's the natural evolution of an industry, but it does make the job a lot less interesting. The observations the author makes are a natural outgrowth of this - when you have a lot of separate roles collaborating to build a program rather than a single person designing the whole thing, you need a lot more meetings and e-mails and testing.

> … it just takes someone in the decision tree actually caring.

Right there is pretty much exactly why light pollution won't even matter in 20-30 years. People in decision-making positions don't care about anything except money and power. Because of that little detail, we're all gonna have much more serious things to worry about than light pollution or street light energy usage 20-30 years from now.
Toyota ships more vehicles every quarter than Tesla has shipped over its entire existence. The idea that it has some sort of supply chain that others envy is laughable. What is going to be fun to watch over the rest of the decade is how quickly Tesla fades into the background as the rest of the industry slowly pivots to EV. Once three or four of the major manufacturers reach the point that more than 50% of their sales are EV I expect Tesla to quietly disappear in a merger with some EV also-ran that needs to play catch-up (the name may stick around, but the company will be absorbed by the acquirer.)

I actually have good reason to fight pollution too, my 8 month old daughter passed away from her battle with heart disease and a very rare genetic condition called Kabuki syndrome a few months ago. Pollution is linked to both congenital heart disease, genetic conditions, and more. My wife and I are not carriers. Her specific conditions were very rare, the odds of all were 1 in 700 million to 1 in 2 billion+. The year prior, Ben Watkins, a teen who lived a few blocks from me, died from an extremely rare cancer that only a few people in the world have/get. https://www.cnn.com/2020/11/18/us/ben-watkins-masterchef/ind...
A couple of general examples why environmental groups may have concerns, none specific to the Tesla story in particular, but I know have happened elsewhere:

- The location has a unique/endangered flora or fauna and building in the specific location would be a significant blow to those species.

- Ground water issues when a large area is paved, roofed or otherwise covered.

- Noise/light pollution affecting nearby residential and/or environmental areas.

- Increased traffic though connecting roads causing related issues.

It's as far as I see never about the specific industry building in the place, but rather the local effects of building in the area that need to be addressed.

Have you considered the option that “resounding victory” and “being lucky” aren’t mutually incompatible concepts?
The conflict I see is the aversion to the greener tech that will actually make that possible (nuclear). It's a question of capacity. Assuming EV production becomes the rule rather than the exception over say, the next 10 years (the timeline for many of the climate initiatives), it's not crazy to think that, okay, that means we're going to need _more_ energy, not less, and the only thing capable of producing consistent electricity on that timeline is fossil fuels (or nuclear).

I'm not saying that it won't be possible eventually (that'd be naive), but do the timelines align? If not, is the hysteria/doomerism around climate change warranted? That's what I'm getting at.
The author of this post sure seems like a fun fellow.

I've had the opposite experience with one of the largest ISPs in Japan. We were supposed to have a lucrative deal between both companies but our side fucked up.

> Your statements about cities "descending into chaos" could have just as easily come from 1995, or 2005, or 2015.

Except right now they're backed by an actual recent increase in crime! You yourself said:

> ; 3) the rise in violent crime was fueled by a rise in murder specifically - but murder rates have actually been rising since 2014 so this isn't a new phenomenon.

So how can you both say the facts are that murder has increased, even though overall crime has decreased, but that people's perceptions of crime are wrong in that they believe it's increased. It's no wonder people think violence has increased... as you yourself said, there are more murders!

Here's yet another gotcha when evaluating crime stats: the idea that any crime is interchangeable is silly. Some crimes are many orders of magnitude worse than others.
As an American, I think it's because the treatments for racism are far cheaper and more tolerable than the treatments for poverty. Minorities were kept out of any opportunity to create generational wealth for a long time, due to racism. The problem we need to solve to reverse that is deprivation of generational wealth for decades, not racism from 60 years ago. We don't want to talk about that, though, because most of the solutions end up looking like wealth redistribution. There isn't a way to cheat poverty that I've seen. You either have enough money or you don't, and the only way out is to have enough money.

That's not to say that racism isn't a problem; it is, and we should fix it. It's not going to magically solve problems like graduation rates and income gaps, however.
DAI is backed by USDC, and USDC is a competing stablecoin. Why would a competing stablecoin want to use their own reserves to redeem USDT for you? I don't mean to be antagonistic here, but there is no safe and steady off ramp for holders of USDT if it is found to be a scam. The value of USDT will collapse, and anyone holding it will have to take a 100% loss. The only way to remedy that would be in the form of some sort of bailout from some other entity, but I don't know how or why that would happen.

I do agree that crypto has been through some issues in the past and has recovered, and I'm sure in the long run it will recover from a Tether collapse as well. In the short term the market will take a significant hit, and many of the exchanges that deal heavily in USDT could collapse because of a lack of liquidity.

EDIT: DAI is backed by USDC not USDT, terribly typo :( https://share.streamlit.io/tadzz/maker_dai_collateralization...

Sure the US could probably exist with 250MM people, in the sense that there are certainly countries which are smaller than that which are doing well. But the path to get there would be shockingly painful and result in a huge decrease to the average quality of life. The path to get to 500MM or 1B people on the other hand would bring about a huge increase to the average quality of life. You have it backwards thinking that life is better if the population shrinks.

This is getting into a whole other can of worms but I firmly believe the most moral path for the US to aim for is the latter.

Obviously this post is hyperbolic to make a point and I think I agree with some of it. But one thing that I think is a straw man is saying that "Developers are their own testers" which I think is profoundly missing the point of modern software testing. It's not that you should just "test your own code" and toss it in production, it's that testing is part of the software development process and "developers" should be full participants in everything from designing/developing code to testing it. And that means, yes when you develop a new feature you also need to deliver automated tests for that feature and not just throw it over the wall to "QA" to test it.

The managed languages create additional hurdles for handle leaks. My prior experience with the .net GC is that it responds to memory pressure, and not necessarily to open handles. So when people write code that relies on GC for cleanup, it has a bit of a blind spot for the handles -- they don't take much memory in your process so it won't know to invoke GC.

There are some patterns to help, like using().
