The author seems to use IDE for one purpose only: to auto-generate boilerplate code. But this is far from the only benefits of IDEs!

I rarely use IDEs for code generation, I don't even like autocomplete. For this stuff I use code snippets; I develop collections of those for any language I use. You don't need an IDE for it; any good text editor has such features.

For me really important features of a good IDE are:

- Navigation. Being able to right-click on a function or method name and jump to its definition is very handy.
Yeah, I may remember where it's defined; I can also use grep (which does not work all that well for methods).
But jumping is so much faster and does not take you out of the flow.

- Code refactoring. I am refactoring code continuously as I work with it. Even simple stuff like renaming a variable or a function (or a method!) is much easier with an IDE.

- Error highlighting.

Note: I can and sometimes do work without an IDE (esp with more obscure languages which don't have good IDE support).
There is some fun it it too, like going camping and living for a while without creature comforts like running water and electricity. But normally, if a tool is available, why not use it?

About languages: I agree that a well-designed language allows you to factor away most boilerplate code. (This was one thing I really liked about Perl! It basically allows you to develop a language dialect for your particular needs. The downside with Perl was that everybody was "reducing boilerplate" in their own way, but this is another story)

Just my 2 cents :-)
For me the choice is more a) tooling that does everything but distracts me all the time b) tooling with some limitations but versatile, consistent across languages and completely modular.

I'm not rejecting IDEs because I didn't like one thing. I like nothing about IDEs except the refactoring feature; but even that doesn't make up for the painful UX. IDEs are like MS Word: they do everything I need but I hate every moment of it.
> git repositories don't have "slave" branches, just a "master' as in template or origin

That isn't true - master in git comes from master in BitKeeper which did have slave replicas.

Not that there is anything wrong with slave in this context.
It's funny, but as a naive reader, I was reading through with the question of why you would use DCT whether it's significantly different from python's cosine_similarity, and why you would use that instead of say, pythagorean distance, edit distance, conditional entropy, and related methods. Is it a speed/accuracy trade off? Obviously I don't have depth on these as the answer would be trivial to someone who did, but I'm wondering if there a simple breakdown of what these and other information similarity methods optimize for.
I remember reading that paper. This is amazing. But it's not really predicting what we're gone say beyond the current syllable:

A database without any test harness? While this could be a good toy or PoC I would never use it in production. Readers should be aware, just because it's on HN doesn't mean it's production ready.
I don't think "hate the West" is even the right way to put it. They're much more concerned with the islamic world, and turning "bad" (secular) muslims into "good" (shariah) muslims. It's not like they love the west either, but they fully expect non-muslims nations to be evil and don't care nearly as much.

The west is more of a useful propaganda tool to achieve the real goal of establishing the islamic caliphate (like from ottoman days).

Did you even read the original comment?

>He can't deliver on all this, but he's getting people ready.

He's not going to build this, making his contribution effectively the same as the long generation of media that has already:

>[Moved] "what's possible" in the public mind forward.

Please read the comment I'm replying to. It's not about building, since I (and the OP) doubt he'll successfully build any of these, but apparently about the influential 'getting people ready.' Which, again, he's had little more influence in 'getting people ready' than the decades of multimedia preceding him.

Even as a business owner I feel what the author of this article is saying. I once has an affiliate of my company play the "we're all family" card.

To extend that analogy, I choose a regular bicycle because I ride for fun and exercise, not speed. But if biking were a serious mode of transportation for me, I would get one that gave me the most assistance possible so I could go faster and farther.

IDEs are similar. If you want to be as efficient as possible and get as much done as possible, you want an IDE. But if learning and exercising your mind is the goal, you’d be better served with a text editor.

You mentioned the medication is as effective in women as it is in men. While I understand men are underserved in this space and so I respect the decision to focus on that population on that basis, I'm curious if there are business elements to that decision as well? Would you ever expand to serving women, given that they seem to be a larger potential customer pool?

Meta comment: the author is applying the "invert, always invert" strategy to technical communication. I've never seen that done before. Style guides and quality control checklists are usually framed in the affirmative/positive. "Be concise." Etc.
Java fields themselves, along with their setters and getters, are entry points in which to control via annotations whether properties are read-only, write-only, or read/write in multiple contexts (e.g. Spring Configuration, JSON de/serialization), how they're serialized in JSON (serialized type can be different, field name can be adjusted), field ordering, and human readability.

Just thinking setters and getters set and get the property is naive and retrograde.
This is definitely the best advice offered thus far. If you haven't sought out professional help yet, give it a whirl and see what happens. For many, it's surprisingly effective and often life-changing.

The former is a thing. Some hospitals do on-site generation instead of trucking it in. If they’re extracting from air; seems like a waste of separated N2/argon/other gases, but the disintermediation might pay for it all.

> Unions would provide no benefit to their members if they negotiated collectively for the national workforce. It's the zero-sum rent-seeking that they engage in that benefits their members, when they force an employer to negotiate with the subset of the workforce that they represent, to the exclusion of all other workers.

That's absurd, the only way this was true was if the amount of money that companies could spend on labor was completely fixed, and the only way to get a larger wage would be for somebody else to get a smaller wage.

Could you please explain why you believe "right to repair" is relevant in this case?
You seem to have difficulty following the logical throughline here. There is no playing dumb in the previous comment.

Let's put it in a statement instead of the form of a question: it does not follow to respond to the quoted part ("URLs aren't an authentication (or authorization) system") with remarks about "those of us living in the real world where billions of people access millions of systems via websites using their email address as ID/fallback[...]".

You (both of you) are confusing the subject here: URLs vs reaching back to drag emails and their privacy into focus. They're different fucking things! Stop responding to comments about one with responses that deal in the other!

Billions of people access websites using their email addresses? Granted! Now say something about URLs if that's what your quibble is and shut up about the emails that the URLs were sent in and whether or not those emails are private. The comments about email are misdirection at worst, and a sign of unclear thinking (and a hazard to confuse others) at best.

I don’t run a company, but run a large division of one. I describe it as a psychological theme park — you’re king of the world one day, moron the next day, taking care of your people the next.

The only thing that has helped me when I feel that way is to take a leap of faith and place trust in others. That thing I think I have to personally oversee really means that I’m not trusting others. That trust problem is usually because I’ve failed as a leader to communicate. So push yourself to do that, and when your comfortable, push yourself to do more.

The other thing, which I think men are more vulnerable to, is be careful about defining yourself by work. Your partner or children or whatever need to be a part of what defines you to you.

My dad’s recent passing highlighted that for me - he spent 30 years and accomplished a lot in an field that impacted many people positively. But when friends and family all came together… that just wasn’t something that mattered. The little (and big) things that he did for people mattered. One person somehow travelled from abroad during COVID to pay respects and share how my dad helped him out in a small way that redefined his life.

I’d ask that you just think about what matters. Deal with the stuff that has to be dealt with, but don’t let it define you. Shipping some feature is what you do, not who you are.

I had the same and it turned out to be asthma.

No I think the difference is that they directly integrate with humans so much. Particularly with the human immune system, pathogen vectors and genetics. Because they suck our blood. It's a pretty unique parasitic relationship--and often the fate of species, both animal and plant, can turn on their parasitic relationships. Perhaps we are not paying the humble mosquito the dues we naturally owe it?

If we press that lever, we might not be able to undo it, and the consequences might be far worse than we (in our limited individual understandings and imaginations, which seem to become even more limited when elaborated through the rubric of public policy) can right now possibly imagine. Sure, it sounds like fear-mongering, and it might be...if they really are useless. But are we so sure? Is it worth it to take that risk?

Consider that air pollution kills ten times (10!) as many as mosquitos. Well, we should just eradicate all fossil fuels. Wipe them from the face of the Earth. But of course, we will not--why? because we see how integrated these disease producing fossil fuels are into our modern energy and supply chains. We see their utility in the 'gross anatomy' of our industrialized civilization clearly. But I think it is not widely appreciated the utility of the mosquito in the much more subtle, but more complex and numerous subtle anatomy of the networks of our ecological and bodily systems. Eradicating them is worse than (the incredibly horrid and stupid hypothetical idea of) say wiping out all gut bacteria in terms of damage, potentially. Anyone who seems eager to take that risk and has the gall to affect society like that with grand statements of "wipe them all out"-- I think is crazy and dangerous. The risk is too great.

Let's find ways to cure/combat the illnesses that don't involve taking out a key transport system in the global biome. It's like saying because crazy people can send letter bombs and con-persons can send fraud, we must execute all postal employees and dismantle all courier companies, if they've ever been misused. Because the internet can carry viruses to your computer, we must sever all submarine cables, and tear down all cell towers. It's sort of a sickness, an overgrowth of desire to use the clever technical genetic tools we can develop to watch as we humans hold the fate of a whole race of things in our hands. Let's use those clever genetic tricks to fight disease not bring the entire infrastructure down, in a fit of intoxication with our own self-importance, finger on the button of destruction, in a rapture of obsession with our very human world-conquering mania.
That's not what the message says.
The problem is that it's capturing what the people say is their will at a moment in time, then forcing the legislature to commit to it forever more or start a new proposition.

Many people will misunderstand what the propositions propose is one issue. I feel like most California voters I have talked to say they are confusing more than anything else. And many will not turn out to vote. So who is to say that's even really the will of the people?

But the issue being discussed is that the will of the people can change, but California ends up stuck with the decision for decades.

I don’t use an IDE but I use emacs. Heavily use Helm, heavily use its ag integration to navigate around projects and I yasnippet useful patterns and rely on them a lot. Am I using an “IDE” - no. But am I using tooling to make my life way easier than a raw text editor? Absolutely. Will my productivity fall off rapidly without this tooling? Most likely.

So I reject the argument made in the article. Just choose your IDE wisely and make the tradeoffs you want to be productive.

Note, this is just a trial delivery, which though a really impressive step, doesn't represent full industrial-scale production yet. The article notes that "By 2030, the aim is for the business to have the capacity to produce 5 million tons of steel per year."

Further, for context, "Global crude steel production reached 1,869.9 million tonnes (Mt) for the year 2019" (https://www.worldsteel.org/media-centre/press-releases/2020/...). So even at full scale, 5 million tons a year is a very small drop in a very very large, dirty bucket.

The article is also unclear as to whether the hydrogen used here was in fact green hydrogen. My bet is probably not, given the vast majority of hydrogen out there is blue hydrogen or worse. We'd need the green hydrogen industry to expand significantly for hydrogen-based processes like these to truly be carbon neutral.

Finally, there's no mention of cost comparison. So it's unclear if this process is price competitive with coal-based processes, or would be any time soon.

In short: Very cool, but a long way from where we need to be if we wanna hit net zero in my lifetime (which, you know, we won't, but...)

Really good advice - this is a hard earned lesson for many folks. I've worked with quite a few data scientists who were brilliant at experimental design but not necessarily experts in the field of comp sci. Their relatively simple python scripts would run nice and fast initially. As time passed and the organization grew, their scripts would start to run slower and slower as the datasets scaled and swapping to disk started occurring, etc. In some cases they would completely lock up shared machines, taking a good chunk of the team offline for a bit.

Anyway, Daniel Lemire's blog is a fantastic resource. I highly recommend taking a look through his publications and open source contributions.

Well, a constitution can be anti-democratic if it cannot be changed by the people. Loads of dictatorships and single-party oligarchies have undemocratic constitutions.

In true democracies the constitution can be changed, and is regularly.

So basically, being a democracy and having a constitution are orthogonal.
