> No mon[a|oi]ds necessary.

Mon[a|oi]ds are everywhere, but in some languages you just don't know about it. Which of course lets you not have to learn those concepts knowingly, but they're still there and you still could be a better developer for at least knowing they're there and they're behind some of the repeating patterns you see (string concatenation / promises / etc.)

I believe "not worrying about them at first" is actually a good path to learn these patterns. Using them first, some time later having a thought "oh hey, the API of how JSON decoders are written is kinda similar to how I'm generating random values, that's cool" and only later on learning that the it is in fact monads/monoids/functors/whatever and that they have laws and you can exploit that (eg. [repeated squaring for anything that's a semigroup](https://blog.jle.im/entry/shuffling-things-up.html)) and whatnot.
Yeah, I saw that when I was reading some of the columns from Marc Andreessen [0]. I can't find any details on Visual JavaScript; does anyone have an old screenshot or video of the product experience?

Honestly your comment is so beside the point that I am not sure that you are not trolling.

You parent comment basically says the very same thing, that you (a IT professional / nerd) are looking for different marketing messages (actual product details) than other users.

Others, who would prefer an "intuitive" product that "works out of the box" and is "so simple" that even the middle aged house wive can easily trade stocks on XYZ (which like 50% of the ads I receive via Alphabet Ads).
SQL queries make me anxious. I don't pretend to know what optmizations the compiler does to my C++ code, or the details of the cache, but at least I have a mental model of what goes on under the hood which reflects the ballpark algorithmic complexity of my code. Even languages disavowing pointer logic make me a bit uneasy in this respect.

Fourth-generation programming languages is hardly a new idea. I don't know, I think we need to see a trend going both ways. Software today is so bloated; I think that's a symptom of fewer programmers having a good intuition about what's happening near the metal.

I haven't seen many real world software supports lookup remote with a hostname, probably windows itself is the only one that I have seen? Meanwhile, url is almost the universal way for lookup remote machine (besides, of course, IP).
Vehicle fleet transitions do take time, though if there's a committment to all-electric (and some countries are getting there, none have currently-operative mandates, there's still roughly a 7-year lag for 50% conversion given vehicle life, absent some trade-in scheme.

Another alternative is to promote private-vehicle alternatives: transit, bikes, walkable neighbourhoods, etc. That might occur more quickly, at least within some regions.

Residential retrofits are similarly slow. New-construction mandates effect only a thin margin of housing, and in regions where new housing construct vastly lags demand (coff-California-coff), that would be centuries. There's now talk of retrofits, though easy replacements (stoves/cooking) neglect hard ones (water and space heat, clothes dryers). Again, replacment cycles for those are on the order of 10--20 years, and require considerable grid upgrades.

Your point about the US (and much the rest of the world) being designed for car-dependence is precisely what I'm talking about by "collective action". The private automobile singlehandedly created the dominant land-use patterns of the 20th century, and reversing reliance on the automobile will require utterly transforming land use, again. And that is a collective problem, not an individual one. The most gold/platinum/green LEED ratings for a building do nothing if it induces 40,000 miles of daily private vehicle commute demand. Convert that to walkable, bikable, and LRV transit, and you're avoiding 800 gallons of fuel consumption a day, 160,000 gallons/year.

And that doesn't happen simply through individual mandates.

The influence of "billionaires living in mansions" on housing is stronger than you give credence, as real estate forms a principle asset class for the financial sector, and hence, asset inflation serves multiple interests. This isn't the only factor behind promoting auto-dependent sprawl, but it's an extraordinarily powerful one.
Allstar GitHub App – continuous security enforcement for GitHub projects
I had set up some minecraft servers in my k8s homelab behind a proxy that routes clients to the right server depending on the domain name they're connecting to.

Everything inside the k8s homelab uses subdomains of k.myvanitydomain.com. The minecraft proxy is at mc.k.myvanitydomain.com. So, to connect to the "valinor" minecraft server, it's just valinor.mc.k.myvanitydomain.com. Dead simple (to me).

I tried explaining that to my kids and suddenly I knew what it was like for whoever explained to me the whole /ls/<chubby_cell>/borg/<borg_cell>/bns/<mdb_user>/<job_name>/<index> setup from google prod

For me it’s hard to pin this on Facebook. E2E encryption should mean the provider has no idea about its content, only metadata. The author is right to blame US intel, as it clearly either legitimately had no idea what was about to happen or set Biden up tor embarrassment.

However regressive the Taliban turns out to govern, they did everyone right by making this happen peacefully. I just worry all of that about all that Afghan Military equipment and training that they now possess. Is there a dead-man switch on the gear? With that kind of firepower I worry they would feel more empowered to behave in an extreme manner towards their people, knowing an outside or inside force dare not stand against them.

Your slightly absurd comparison of a toaster to a trip to Bali has made me realise I don't actually have a solid grasp of the relative carbon contribution of each, compared with each other and the total that a society outputs.

You hear a lot about flying to holidays being something we have to give up, but that seems so flagrantly designed to annoy people that I feel the source is more likely to be climate change deniers than actual environmentalists.

Are holidays really a big thing? I know flights are technically hard to decarbonise today, but I don't think I've ever seen numbers suggesting they're a big priority compared with the low hanging fruit or that individual action is the best way to solve it.

Maybe but Python is sloooow and its type annotation situation is pretty poor.

I would recommend using Deno. It has the following advantages:

* Uses Typescript which gives you a great static typing system.

* Runs via V8 so it's about a million times faster than Python.

* Single statically linked binary with no project setup files required (package.json/dependencies.txt) makes it about a million times easier to deploy than either Node or Python. Especially on Windows.

* You can still use third party libraries even without a project file and you get IDE integration.

It's the clear winner at this point. Someone has even made a version of zx for it:

Has there ever been an attempt at solving the problem with a cooperatively owned retailer? They're a little old school but useful for changing markets that are dysfunctional, and overcoming a lack of capital by allowing members to combine their (individually too small) means.

I feel like the await keyword everywhere is a bit verbose. One might use something like the gpp preprocessor (hopefully the macros could be defined in a separate file):

#define _2 process.argv[1]
#define _3 process.argv[1]

_`dep deploy --branch=${branch}`

$`sleep 2; echo 2`,

Off the top of my head, HackerOne and BugCrowd.

If you're thinking of setting up a program, it's worth your time to read over some existing program policies - those policies encapsulate a lot of experience that the existing programs have had on their platforms. Your ideal policy will probably differ, but it's worth thinking about why the other program policies are the way they are.

You can't compile TS to WASM, and there's a big difference between just stripping types from TS and transpiling Java or even something like Dart.

Way to miss the point.
obviously, as long as the language is turing complete, but you just converted an unstructured program to a structured one.
The Apple claim is so hand wavy as to be meaningless.

Without any hard data and like-to-like comparisons, the most that can be said is that IPv4 and IPv6 have different routing policies and this may attribute the differences in latency. As such what and where you test will affect your results.

That being said, Apple’s IPv6 policy is probably the best thing being done to encourage adoption.

However, they are not adopting the policy due to performance reasons, but due to necessity given who their ultimate customers are (cell phone companies).

IPv6-only as a term has been heavily abused. A truly IPv6-only network has no access to IPv4 resources. If it does, it isn’t really IPv6-only and relies upon IPv4 addresses and NAT to work.

My point is that a con artist isn't just a guy on the street, but can exude professionalism and officiousness.

My reference to a ponzi scheme is certainly in "con artist" turf, as is kickstarters and vapourware peddlers.

For most people, the cost should be negative, courtesy of a lot of companies that love to send newsletters.
Con artists these days tend to prey on unsavvy and vulnerable people. A big portion of this group is the elderly. You may be very savvy today but you never know if someday you’ll get Alzheimer’s or some other form of dementia that will leave you highly vulnerable to con artists. Unless you have savvy family members to look after you, that is.

You could enable scanning of all files using a few bit-flips, but that doesn't have any effect - the results need to be evaluated by someone. Afaik, the system is designed such that the client side does not know whether a match occurred. So to actually report anyone based on the results of the proposed CSAM scanner, Apple also needs to upload all of the scanned files, including the client-side scan result, to figure out whether there's a match.
Ugh, typing `await` for every command is terrible. JavaScript's async-by-default model is clearly not a good fit for this use case.
Silly question, but under nginx or apache do django instances persist or are they recreated for every new request?
This has been discussed to death, I feel.

People building their apps on a discouraged "leaked" implementation detail (JS native/kernel modules) got cut off from using it.

The reason for disallowing that implementation detail wasn't "hey, somebody is using it, let's teach them a lesson" but, as far as I've heard, improvements to dead code elimination.

You can (and people, me included, do) use Elm in production peacefully. Huge apps, nontrivial JavaScript interop needed. You can do all that without depending on JS native modules.

I feel like whether you use a (discouraged) implementation detail of the language is a good indicator of whether you'll have a bad time later on when that implementation detail changes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

They run the same underlying OS, in many ways it doesn't matter which replaces the other, the UI chrome and API are the main differences, and something like xcode could be run on iOS without huge modifications.

I do think at some point they'll merge them though - maintaining two APIs which are distinct but incredibly similar is a waste of effort and confusing for developers.
The B-52 is an inherently conservative design: tube-and-wing, jets on pods, designed for maximum payload. It's not fast (subsonic), it's not stealthy. It has immense range, and works where the goal is power projection. It's also got a large support infrastructure (including tooling for necessary maintenance and repairs), and major systems (avionics and comms) can be upgraded over time. It's the airframe, propulsion, and fuel that are the architectural bones of the aircraft.

The Harrier is more specialised, and attempted to create a specific niche. That niche has since evolved.

It's still possible that it (or other comparably-aged aircraft) could be retrofit for pilotless operation. Given the age and capabilities, they might not be able to directly take on current advanced fighters or defence systems, but could still operate where a manned vehicle could not, and with performance parameters a human pilot wouldn't survive. (This isn't just G-forces but temperature, altitude, endurance, and standbye / stationing capabilities.) The ability to take off and land vertically could still be of use, and the notion of such craft which might be parked or staged ready for combat without requiring pilots ... does seem to afford some interesting capabilities.

(Of course, this could be achived with specifically-designed drone craft as well.)

Another interesting question is in-air refueling. Seems that that's an area of current research, both in enabling refueling of drones in-flight, and of drones serving as aerial tankers.

Yeah that does suck but fortunately ESLint and Typescript have options to prevent most of them. If you use Deno they're enabled by default.

Also true, but we're comparing it to PHP and Python.
He made the helicopter from sheet metal. I don't think he really understood the high speed rotation's effects on them. A few grams of imbalance can totally destroy the rotors. Which probably what happened in this video.
Indeed, GO TO is not that unstructured; it can be said to have a fairly precise semantics of "sets the continuation of the program to <label>; does not proceed to the next statement.". Though if you want to analyze the semantics of a GO TO-using program, it's practically a required step to endow all of your labels with appropriate COME FROM annotations, marking the branches it could be reached from - and that's a whole-program analysis, at least in principle. That's the point where you're giving up modularity!
Very few countries are active war mongers, so it might actually be possible to assemble a bloc to try making US accountable. It probably wouldn’t be possible to go after prime perpetrators, but it might be possible to at least start extracting low key figures and put them on trial in a way that US cannot interfere with.
"The Taliban has fought against the US and the Kabul state for two decades in the face of casualties that would have shattered the morale and recruitment of almost any other army. The Vietnamese communists are the only parallel I can think of – and indeed, the Taliban may have learned the importance of discipline and organisation indirectly from communism.
There are provinces in Afghanistan where five Taliban governors in a row have been killed – and yet a new volunteer for the position has always stepped forward. This marks a striking contrast with all previous religiously inspired Pashtun tribal uprisings, which grew rapidly but also collapsed quickly after the first major defeat."

OK. But that's not a problem of a thundering herd. It's a problem that you have more incoming work than you are theoretically able to handle even if you stay in continuous operation. Your problem is solved by adding the capacity to do more work. The thundering herd is solved by purposefully desynchronizing incoming work requests.

This implies the US population being held responsible because the US is a democratic nation.

The idea is, every 4 years the highest position of governance is put on a trial and the population votes if they approve or disprove the way things are done and reconsider alternatives.

Besides the 4 year period for the evaluation of the highest ranking officers, there is an ample opportunity for direct intervention through other elections and NGOs.

The burden is on the US citizens but other nations holding the US nation accountable is unrealistic. The Germans were held responsible for Hitler but they lost an open war to a greater power. The US is not facing such a power.

Whatever happens is up to the US internal politics and the culture of the US nation. The best the external powers could do is to push for events that change the US populations feelings, thus affecting the judgement of the periodic reviews.
>and put them on trial in a way that US cannot interfere with.
