Other tips:

- Change the field type from JSON to JSONB (better storage and the rest) https://www.postgresql.org/docs/13/datatype-json.html

-Learn the json in-build functions and see if one of them can replace one you made ad-hoc

- Seriously, replace json with normal tables for the most common stuff. That alone will speed up things massively. Maybe keep the old json around in case, but remove when it become old(?)

- Use views. Views allow to abstract over your databaee and allow to change internals

- If a big things is searching and that searching is nkind of complex/flexible, add FTS with proper indexing to your json then use it as first filter layer:

SELECT .. FROM table WHERE id IN (SELECT .. FROM search_table WHERE FTS_query) AND ...other filters

This speeeeeedupppp beautifully! (I get sub-second queries!)

- If your query do heavy calculations and your query planner show it, consider move them into a trigger and write the solved result into a table, and query that table instead. I need to loans calculations that requiere sub-second answers and this is how I solve it.

And for your query planner investigation, this handy tool is great:

This stood out to me:

> On average, men have 50 per cent more scars than women, but right-handed men are more likely to scar their left hands, while right-handed women tend to scar their right - no one knows why.

I asked my wife, and the best hypotheses that we could come up with together are:

* men are more likely to use tools, and to use them aggressively. Tool use is typically done with the dominant hand, while injury through tool use would typically be to the non-dominant hand

* women are more likely to perform tasks that require fine dexterity, which would often preclude the use of tools

I have The DevOps Handbook next to me (also by Gene Kim) and I could not get through it. It is just a case study after case study of "what you should do to be super productive" and I found myself nodding off despite being in a highly DevOps environment at this particular moment.

Just putting it here in case someone would think, as I did, that DevOps handbook is the more modern, better version of TPP, and therefore should be read instead.

You might not like _how_ Tesla is deploying self-driving, but it would be silly to challenge that they are at minimum tied for the lead right now.
The people that make up a corporation can, collectively, establish values for that corporation. This arises through corporate culture and can be ratified by management. Many large corporations document and promote a specific set of values within the company. Corporations know that the values that they adopt affect how their customers and employees see the corporation and that impacts their loyalty to the corporation. If a corporation compromises those values, that will have a negative impact. This is analogous to how society responds to individuals who express values and either follow those values or depart from them.

Sometimes the values can be in conflict where the choices will all have negative impacts and that can be tricky to navigate.

Also, one short term hack I haven't seen explicitly mentioned yet. Try to enjoy a healthier kind of buying: buy your house piece by piece. In other words, pay off your mortgage early. If you can direct some of your impulse buying towards early mortgage repayment like that, that would be a win!

Try to experience the process of increasing your ownership as close to your senses as possible:

- Can you make the repayments cash transactions instead of online?

- Make these early repayments as frequent as possible. If the bank allows monthly, quarterly or annually only, arrange for a trusted friend to collect weekly or even daily.

- Visualise your progress:

- Make a drawing/real life 3d model/photo/lego model of your house.

- Colour the bits of the drawing you now own.

- Move the lego bits over from "the bank" to "mine/ours".

- Mark individual stones or pieces of siding as your own versus the bank's.

- ...

This is from Ming-Chi Kuo, a reliable source, so it’s more likely to be true than not. I speculate that this is an obscure feature at first, just like how UWB supported a limited feature set when it was first introduced. I don’t expect to see any associated services to be offered initially.

Find My would be a good fit for a basic application: low bandwidth, low usage frequency, low service quality demand. Communicate locations of iPhones and other devices that support Find My, therefore making the whole network more capable by covering locations without any infrastructure.
This. And it's not just that the starlink antenna is bigger; it also moves (virtually -- it's a phased array) to follow the moving satellite. Pointing at the satellite (either with motors or with phased array technology) is absolutely essential for high-bandwidth LEO. Iridium antennas don't follow the satellite; they're effectively omnidirectional so their gain and S/N ratio are terrible. And that's good enough for the 2400bps Iridium provides. But it's nowhere near what a 4G or 5G land-based connection provides to a normal smartphone.
I get there when I feel unsatisfied with the problems I'm solving. Maybe I ended up fighting fires for a day or two, say, and fighting fires doesn't bring me pleasure while my main body of work does. So, even though the fire fighting has immense value to those who benefit from the fires being put out, and I'm really good at doing what it takes to put them out quickly, I didn't start the fires myself and I didn't get my work done. I feel like a rescuer rather than an effective contributor and then I have to start trying to compensate for it.

This is also touching on burnout. There's just a kind of programming work that is mentally draining and unfulfilling because the underlying problems or mistakes are entirely self-inflicted. Spending time fixing shit that didn't have to be broken.

Because before the 17th the Senate was the State Governments representative in the congress. Senators represented the desire of the State Legislatures not the People of the states.

This is why all spending bills have to start in the House, because the House is the peoples voice in congress, and if they want to spend the peoples money it has to start with the peoples voice, not the States.

The US was to be a republic with only a single part of the new federal government democratically elected, there was / is a reason for that. Separation of Powers and distributed power being the key concepts.

By changing congress to have both the house and the senate become democratically elected the State Governments lost their voice in the federal government.

After you learn how to solve states, input data, output data, error handling, parsing context, resource mocking, guaranteed resource release, and a lot of other things just by declaring the correct monad when you call your code, people tend to want to solve several of those at the same time.

But for solving several of them, you need to compose your monads, and there is no good general way to do that. There are context dependent ways to compose some of them, but you are always thinking about their compatibility and they often require that you specialize your code.
I think I agree with you in a broader sense, but I don’t understand why this case in particular seems to be an issue.

> "That research had never been done. I could say no more than everything matched, and we couldn't say it definitely wasn't him”

This seems to be exactly correct. It explicits says that it was not possible given the information at time to confidently identify someone from a photo, but that there was enough information to positively rule out identification in some cases - and that that wasn’t the case here.

The book "Lifecycle Investing," by Yale professors Nalebuff and Ayres, argues that a young person ought to invest 100% or even more (via leverage) in stocks. (More specifically, a young person with high future earning potential, which probably includes many people here with a career in tech.)

I'm fairly risk averse and don't totally believe their leverage calculations. But it did convince me that any non-negligible bond allocation is probably suboptimal.

Yes this was absolutely true. I used to repair these systems when they got the dreaded red ring of death. Microsoft used inferior solder, and coupled this with a poorly designed heatsink mounting bracket. The heatsink mounting bracket on the back of the motherboard was bowed by design, and would pull back on the corners of the CPU, while a middle contact point would press up on the center of the CPU socket. Once heated, this caused the motherboard to flex directly under the CPU, and this stress would pop the ball grid array solder points under the CPU.

The trick was to place a stack of nylon bushings at each corner of the CPU, to take up the free space after removing the bracket. This removed the stress from under the CPU and would usually bring the system back to life for another eight months or so.
I haven't had a bad experience with the Samsung evo select line, which is a made for Amazon brand. If you buy it new, sold and shipped by Amazon, you won't run into counterfeit issues.

In person stores also do price matching with shipped and sold by amazon products in my experience.

It's bad that Amazon lets these kinds of products into their marketplace though.

I use it all the time - it's the killer feature of google photos. The premise is that if you come back from vacation with 300 photos, it's unlikely that you (the average non photography-nerd user) are going to sit there and tag them all. If in a few years you want to find "that photo of me you took on the beach in north carolina", with a quick search you can.

There are annoying limitations though, probably because the original team moved on and it's in maintenance stage. Using my example above, google photos has no idea what the "outer banks" are (which is where the beach photos were taken in north carolina) and returns no results. It also has trouble parsing out entities from search terms, so "north carolina beach maggie" isn't going to find pictures of Maggie on the beach in North Carolina (which you'd think they could really fix given that, well, they're google). Finally, there's no way (that I know of) to jump from search results to your full timeline; let's say that "north carolina beach" gets me a bunch of beach pictures from January 2015 (yeah, it was cold), but doesn't have _the_ picture from the trip that I know I want - there's no direct way to click to January 2015 from the results, which really sucks. (Instead you have to go back out of results and use their fiddly scroll to get there.)
This was certainly true when I was a kid, and "universe" meant "all existing matter and space (observable or not)".

As a youtube-couch expert on astrophysics, I hear "universe" redefined as something like "a bubble of matter and spacetime that is 'quarantined' and can never communicate with the rest of the cosmos" whenever multiverse theory is discussed.

> There's mass deaths a day. Funny the activity is in the anti-mask states, huh?

I suggest you look at the actual data - no such correlation exists.

The majority of US states have similar death rates per population at around 2K deaths per 1M citizens. (with a spread of around +/- 15%) You can find examples for each,

Death rates correlate much better to wealth and way of living than local policies.
I can only speak for myself, but I find the quality of output decreases pretty steeply after around six hours of flow. Determination can keep me going but I’ve learnt that it’s probably more efficient to just rest and return to it after a good night's sleep.

> Because no one knows how to build a sensible web service any more, the page loads a 1.3MB JSON file containing every number that Barclays has.

While other comments have already mentioned that it's actually "only" ~190kB which get transferred thanks to gzip compression, there is still a lot of potential for a smaller transfer size by simply using brotli instead of gzip for compression. With brotli the size of this file is <60KB, so only less than a third of the file size of the gzipped data.

Using brotli would be an easy win and improve performance of loading all other assets as well, without the need to change anything in the actual implementation of the website, however Barclays Bank is probably still running a webserver stack which doesn't support brotli yet.

You are shadow-banned
Rendering files megabytes in size is quite bad in a browser. I'm not sure of the reason, but it fires up slowly, and I suspect memory usage is also quite bad.
I disagree, I come here because the articles I see and comments are read are reached by consensus. Bad comments are normally at the bottom of the page and easy to ignore.

There is shadow banning on HN and I disagree with it, but I should be able to make the above generalisation of why HN seems to work with less moderation than expected.

On sites like 4chan, there is some moderation, but again, the few interesting comments that exist get automatically highlighted by the engagement that occurs within the page. Moderation does not allow this to exist, census does. Moderation just helps but I argue the site would work without it, and thats how the internet used to work. Even newgroups that used the wrong mechanic to handle consensus based uploading, and suffered from spam , had content that was good and easy to find, without any moderation that I could see.
It's a very interesting thought that the technologies to reach 90% carbon emission reduction are within reach, since they already exist, but will require some readjustments to our lifestyle.

> I don't know what the answer is, but sometimes Rust feels like it's an abstraction or two away from really solving the problems it wants to solve in an elegant way.

I feel like it's not unreasonable to say that some parts of rust are impressive because they make hard things ergonomic, and others - so far - are mostly impressive because they make really hard things possible at all.

Or: I share your intuition, but assuming there even -is- an answer, I think at the very least rust has provided a great service in figuring out what the right questions are.

I’m interested in how people using different languages manage this style of “developing in the debugger” and then (eventually) checking in finished code.

Two systems I’m familiar with:

* In Flutter, you write code in the normal way, in an editor or IDE. If you want to change code while the program is running, you edit code in the normal way and hit a key to reload it. This works when stopped at a breakpoint. But the changes you can make using hot reloading seem somewhat limited; you couldn’t do a major refactoring.

* In an Observable notebook, you edit a cell and then any other cells that depend on it automatically run, like a spreadsheet. You don’t normally use a debugger, though the browser’s debugger does work. In some cases when you’re using advanced features, you might need to reload the page, but usually you don’t.

How do people work using Common Lisp? In other languages? In particular, do you write code in one place (using the repl) and copy-paste it to another place?
