It's partially covered in the first link on the page: https://mcfunley.com/choose-boring-technology.

A specific quality described there would be languages that have fewer unknown unknowns, a lack of surprises. C, C++, Java (the three he picks) have relatively few surprises. Either by virtue of design (here I'd say both C and Java) or total industry experience with the language (C++, C, Java). Ubiquity might be another consideration. A lot of other languages could probably be added to the list on that criteria.

Another would be how common it is, especially for a particular domain. In my field (embedded, safety critical, real-time) it would seem like Rust would be a great choice, but it's not common and there are both technical and logistical hurdles preventing its use (for fielding, at least, for proofs of concept it's viable and that could lead to its use in fielded systems later). I'm constrained to C, C++, and maybe Ada. Fortran has been phased out, but would've been one of the boring languages for this domain up to about 20 years ago (for a new project).
I’d bet money that Apple’s or Cook’s could afford an accountant that is smart enough to structure the deal so that it would be all long term capital gains instead of all ordinary income. Just say that he received the shares a year ago or when he started but those shares weren’t vested until now. Then it would be 23.8% federal instead of 37% federal… Although our government is broke and needs that extra tax revenue.
The purpose of Ada was not to sell compilers, nor to serve as a means for an acquihire, nor IPO, nor VC money. Passing the test suite is just about the most important thing an Ada compiler must do. The requirements of the language originate here: http://iment.com/maida/computer/requirements/strawman.htm#si...

> Every user level aspect of the language will be formally specified. None will be left to the translator implementer, operating system or object machine.

> There will be a traceable operational and/or technological requirement for each primitive data, operation and control structure in the language.

> The language will not reveal minor differrences in computer architecture.

> Machine dependent code cannot appear interspersed in-line in source language programs.

> The semantics of the language will be determinable from the description.

> Constructs of the language will have only one reasonable interpretation (i.e., physcologically unambiguous).

> There will be an axiomatic definition of the language. It will be mathematically complete in the Turing sense.

> The language will not sacrifice clarity for efficiency.

> The language will not contain special features for rare cases.

> All defaults in a program will be specifically provided in the language specification or in the program.

> There will be a minimal number of defaults.

…
> Any translator for the language must implement the entire language (NO subsets).

> Any translator for the language must implement only the language as specified (translator implementer may not expand the language specification).

> Translator does not have to run on all object machines. Self-hosting is not required.

These are the requirements Ada was designed to fulfill. If not passing the test suite is OK with you, you probably have no use for Ada and would be better served by another language.

This is the best you can hope for in sensitive applications like aviation. I would feel better knowing the software flying me was extensively validated.
Wait until it has a following, and everyone knows who the developers are. Then if something is malicious, you atleast know who to blame. It's really the same as anything else.
Rt.com; dr.

Seriously, an outlet notorious for pushing news that services Russia's desire to be divisive in harmful ways, feeding vaccine fears?

Hmmmmmm.

Now, I'm willing to accept that there might be a bad batch in Okinawa, but I'm not reading about it on Russia freaking Today.
The purpose of the language was to serve those limited contexts for which no suitable alternative existed. It’s not meant to be Python.
What would be the benefits of this over neovim-qt?

> And, glad to finally have a president with the courage to get us out, thus finally ending the unfortunate expenditure of American blood and treasure going forward.

Trump negotiated the exit strategy to ‘get us out’, Biden just couldn’t execute it.

> But, congratulations to you though. The fact that a 20-year foreign policy blunder culminated on the 8-month watch of a president you don't like clearly somehow seems like a personal victory for you, even if it comes at the expense of American and Afghan lives.

There is no victory here for anyone, except America’s enemies. You know, there are people in the world, that are able to criticize terrible leadership, without relishing said leaderships failures. It’s binary thinking like yours that keep us in this two-party partisan nightmare.
Thats where you create a massive beast of code which dynamically generates SQL from fragments with string interpolation!
We wrote a custom controller that manages Google workspace and github groups. This allows us to use those groups for identity.

Changes to those groups happen solely by the PR process.

HR, is only responsible for adding them to the single group which allows single sign on access not does not give any other access.
I wish I could post the source code, but I'm not quite sure who owns it as the wild west of Microbee software publishing didn't include niceties like contracts and copyright and whatnot.
Can you elaborate a bit more? I don't know how I can refute his concern (of course I'm not in the field though).

It seems true that if Prop 22 were passed, he would have to become an employee for one company, so he wouldn't be able to work for 5+ companies at the same time.

I think something like this is one of the only reasonable ways to pull off a decent unschooling experience with working parents. During the pandemic school year we pulled our kids out of the system and had a generally positive experience with homeschooling which evolved into unschooling as we learned more, but we never had the time and energy we had hoped to create those learning moments, and our kids' drive was hopelessly oriented towards video games. Even still, they made interesting projects and became quite articulate, if not traditionally academic. Public school is a mess at best- completely outsourced to Pearson and oriented towards an outmoded model of authoritarian compliance, it fails to prepare kids for life and beats the curiosity right out of them... but its also rather turnkey for working families and difficult to compete with their resources for a well-rounded experience.
I think it's the issue with mark monitor and not s3/aws.

What if mark monitor would put all parked domains to bob.com.mys3.com service? Me, as mys3 provider I'm at fault? I doubt.

What if mark monitor would point to an IP address they don't own? Still not their fault?
You're probably right, considering rivers are often an important source of drinking water.
Good point, I can see that perspective. I guess I should have used 'ambiguous' instead of misleading. My first thought, with current wording, is that they were allowing transfers out or letting domains expire. Perhaps I spent too much time in the registry business.
Throwing ad-hominems at people criticising your language is not a good long term strategy, though it might appear to work for a while.

Not only there was not any "mentions multiple GC and non-GC languages" in the comment I replied or in the parent comments (except for single mention of C++), I also don't get why I have "bad opinion about unsafe" (and where I claimed it is important?). Such a friendly community. Now I see why people don't engage with Rust evangelists. Lesson learned. Anyway, have a nice day!
If you would like a very silly reason, sometimes I want to copy logs to other devs really quickly from a server, but exporting them to a file and then rsyncing it back is just a bunch of commands and files I don't want to deal with. Because I have alacritty I'll do a cheeky hack and scale the font down to like 2pt, highlight everything and then copy it.

I can copy around 500 lines of logs this way. Quick and dirty.

Other than that IDK.

And about the tabbing and splitting. I got tired of all the terminal emulators I like not supporting it, and some contexts not supporting paging, and not having a nice way to review a long running process, and took the dive to learn tmux.

Tmux. A terrible solution to a bunch of stupid problems. Highly recommend.
Presumably they had in mind the objection to the certification of Ohio's electoral vote in 2004, which Wikipedia says was "only the second congressional objection to an entire state's electoral delegation in U.S. history"[0] (the previous instance being in 1877).

I'm not sure about the other examples, but it is true that the House of Representatives voted to remove Marjorie Taylor Greene of her committee assignments. That may have been for reasons other than simply believing the spurious claims of election fraud, though.[1]

Good summary of the situation. I am, unfortunately, pretty much completely in agreement on all points.
IIRC there's existing case law in copyright law about the amount of creative work required to perform "transformative work" to an existing work. I figure that essentially, if you barely touched up the photos, you'd not have "transformed" the original work, and it would remain in the public domain, but if you performed sufficiently extensive restoration, it may count as a transformation.

(going off of memory here and a bit of speculation, hope I didn't misremember it)
That'd be the fault of Nvidia proprietary drivers (which are regularly known to cause lot of annoying problems+issues like that across the board) as systems without a hardware GPU can still normally create OpenGL contexts.

The day that driver mess is cleaned up a shit ton of problems will disappear overnight.
Java, like Go, was specifically designed from inception not to be even a little bit exciting or revolutionary. That was their whole value proposition. If they ever excited somebody, that would be purely accidental, possibly indicating a miscalibration.
It's always wildly entertaining and equally demoralizing to see people trapped in this very deceptive, primitive and privately owned technological nighmarish mess created for the sole purpose of sucking the life out of them.

Why aren't they opting out? Why are they being voluntarily captive of that madhouse's nuthouse / kinda oxygen deprived fishbowl? Why aren't they seing that bright orange flashing target painted on their very soul?

In the line of what is offered to drug and alcohol addicts, I predict a coming widespread adoption of tailor made 12-step programs for the media addicted. "It's now been 48 months since I've acted on a notification. One day at a time."
You've misread it. Here's those lines with a bit more context:

> But if, instead, they followed the peak of the energy efficiency graph, the entire chip would consume just 8.5 watts [...] and operating at about 0.4 volts, Ditzel said, one chip would take about 20 watts.

"the peak of the energy efficiency graph" isn't stated explicitly, but is at around 0.32 volts.

Basically they want to use up all 120W of a PCIe slot, at the highest efficiency possible. They could have gotten higher efficiency (at 8.5W per chip), but that would have resulted in not being able to use the full 120W and thus actually having worse performance overall, even though it's more efficient.

I have not tried this one yet, but what I'd like to see in a nvim gui:

- Splits I can drag around to move and resize with a mouse

- "Native" window tabs instead of terminal-style tabs

- A gvim-style menu bar with some operations for which I can't be bothered to remember the key combination.

So, overall, mostly mouse support and better discoverability. I've tried a few though and haven't really found what I'm looking for, open to suggestions :)
All productivity enhancing technology, whether those that emerged in the first industrial revolution, second industrial revolution or information technology revolution, reduce the amount of labor required to do a task, and thereby increase how much the population as a whole produces, leading to wages increasing.

The decline in wage growth since the 1970s does not appear to be due to any special properties of more recent technological innovations, given countries like Hong Kong and Singapore, which were more restrained in their growth of labor regulations and taxation, saw massive wage growth into the 21st century.

It appears simply to be due to a huge transition to social democracy:

https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/social-spending-oecd-long...

Which has resulted in a larger portion of economic output being directed by coercive non-market forces, which are less efficient than the consumer-directed allocation of resources caused by market forces.
Many news items, including this one, make the same mistake in listing the EU rule as limiting to 75 “daily” cases per 100,000 over the last two weeks. The rule is for 75 total cases per 100,000 over two weeks. https://www.consilium.europa.eu/en/press/press-releases/2021...
> Now this is quite problematic the way I see it. First off, I have a medical degree and I find the technology incredibly complex. Secondly, the author uses "simplicity" as a crutch to support her argument further down that since mRNA translation happens outside the nucleus (where the DNA is) there is in no way any interaction between DNA and mRNA.

If someone is concerned about this they are either ignorant of how mRNA viruses such as SARS-COV-2 (and every "cold" and flu virus) reproduce or have to explain away how having a fixed amount of vaccine mRNA translation is bad, but having an unlimited amount of SARS-COV-2 translation (including those same spike proteins) is fine. This is a process that has happened literally billions, if not trillions, of times in every single HN readers body with other viruses not some exotic thing.
From the abstract:

“[W]e propose and test a model where study condition (camera on versus off) was linked to daily feelings of fatigue; daily fatigue, in turn, was presumed to relate negatively to voice and engagement during virtual meetings. We further predict that gender and organizational tenure will moderate this relationship such that using a camera during virtual meetings will be more fatiguing for women and newer members of the organization. Results of 1,408 daily observations from 103 employees supported our proposed model....”

I teach at a university and, since early last year, have been working exclusively from home. An interesting change has occurred in our online faculty meetings over that period. At first, when we were still getting used to videoconferencing, most meetings were conducted with most people’s cameras on. Over time, however, more and more of the meetings have been conducted with almost everyone keeping their cameras off; in many meetings, people turn their cameras on only when they are speaking and often not even then.

When we started teaching online last April, we were told not to require students to turn on their cameras during class (out of respect for their privacy), and it seems that most classes are indeed being conducted with the students’ cameras off. I personally find that frustrating; I am not as easily able to remember students as individuals, even in small classes, when I never see their faces. (Otherwise, I don't mind online teaching at all.)

For faculty meetings, though, I haven't heard any complaints about cameras being off, and the meetings seem to be as effective online with limited video as they used to be when conducted in person.

In one-on-one conversations, both cameras are usually on. I, at least, find that works as well as in-person conversations, and I much prefer one-on-one videoconferencing to telephone conversations.

i was trying to remember Brin's politics & still dont have a good feel, but i quite enjoyed the review: https://www.davidbrin.com/politics.html

this article is a great takedown of John C Wright's post. and bless his soul- i loved the Golden Oecumeme trilogy (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Golden_Oecumene) so much when i read it, but yeah, John not only holds/held some dark scary views, he went so far as to create a good antithesis of hiw we might think. i wasnt aware Brin or others were replying but i was following John's blog. itcs awesome that we have such a great, enjoyable, still necessary rebuttal to an idea that's still scarily about. i do wonder what else might be added, ehat else we might say, but this is an awesome deacde old link to share, thanks.
"Oh, OK. We will investigate alternatives at price points above what we currently pay you but less than 10x. Thanks for letting us know how much you value this relationship."
Would you say the same of an obese person in need of care, or a smoker?

What about those who have side effects from a vaccine that need treatment? They chose to take it, they knew there are risks.

Perhaps you wouldn't even want to treat pregnant women who chose to put themselves in that position.

Hard to tell where your "philosophy" will find a moral balance that is also consistent.

During particle physics experiments, the number of reactions of interest that get detected is an important thing to monitor. If you stop measuring the reaction of interest, it might mean that a magnet drifted out of preferred tuning, that your data acquisition crashed, but the key thing is that something requires human intervention to fix. Frequently, the trigger signal, which has a short pulse anytime data are to be collected, would be sent into a speaker. You get a buzzing, not unlike a Geiger counter at high rates, which blends into the background noise, and that tells you how healthy the experiment is.

The funniest thing was seeing how everybody was paying attention to that buzzing at all times. You could have a dozen people talking about different aspects of the experiment, but if that buzzing drops out for a few seconds, every single conversation immediately stops. Usually it would come back after a few seconds and the conversations would resume, but it was fascinating to have visible proof that everybody was ready to drop their current work in order to get the experiment running again if anything happened.

Edit: I also heard tales of somebody who had trained themselves to wake up if the buzzing ever stopped. That way, they could take short naps during the night shift, while still being present and ready to resolve any issues that came up.

Not an option to buy anything else for a sane price at the moment sadly, due to crypto craze. ;)

It seems like _it looks like_ everyone is getting rich.

Meanwhile, access to credit is easier than ever before, in so many forms, and the Internet has made it easier to "flex on plebs" in seconds.

Dump social media would be my takeaway. Shit's unhealthy
I know a couple similar to this. Social media with rich vacations, fancy drinks, posting the new cars they bought. BMW one day. SUV the next.

Reality is they have a very low income. With a double mortgage on their house. And blew through an inheritance. Have trouble keeping up with repairs, roof, etc. With an uncertain financial future, they are always in a state of worry.
As usual, they trot out "think of the children!" whenever they want to start doing something horrifically invasive or trivial to abuse. Just what we want: social standing determined by YouTube algorithm.
I don't think it's as inconsequential as you say. Coinbase.ca and google.ar were two of these domains. The author noted that TLS certs could have been minted and then used in MITM attacks, if, for example, Coinbase began operating in Canada.
I mean, based just on the abstract that's not entirely unlike what they're doing, except that they're using GP emulation.
The BBC as a whole, yes - but “BBC Worldwide”: the arm that runs the World Service channel and foreign broadcasting is self-sufficient and does run ads. Though I’m unsure how the accounting works for profits it gets for programs it licenses out when they’re made by the BBC’s domestically funded divisions.
In general: There are a few theoretical advantages when it comes to doing advanced syntax "highlighting". Not that I've seen any GUI IDE/editor ever do syntax highlighting that couldn't be done in a terminal.

There are a few examples in the GUI based disassemblers world (like IDA pro) which use graphical arrows to show where branch/jump instructions goto. The usefulness of those is enough to convince me that perhaps more research needs to be done in this direction.

There is also the small advantage of being able to have more than one font type/size on the screen. Your navigator panel can be a smaller font size, Your inline documentation viewer can use a variable-width font.

The counter-argument to all that is always: "Is it worth giving up the ability to be used in a terminal to add those few features?"

Everything else can be defined as "style" and gets very subjective. nvui looks like it has nice animations and smooth scrolling.
I think we are going to need a little bit more. How does the attacker get traffic to route to them?
It sounds like the kind of code we're writing is very different. I'm definitely not just gluing things together, and 90% of the stuff I am gluing uses some kind of language-agnostic interface like JSON over HTTP.

Nvim already supports resizing splits with the mouse. Just :set mouse=a
I agree. What we need are experiments like KaiPod - actual innovation in the education space. The educational model of the 1800s is not what we need in education today. If we let the funding follow the student, then the ~$20k spent on educating each child could be used by the parent to select the best option. Unfortunately we continue to give money to the "free" schools and force parents to spend extra to actually educate kids. It's insanity.
Breaches are acceptable and their detection proves the security system works. Undetected breaches would indicate a complete failure of the security.

Problems are to be expected, as long as the system can detect and deal with the breach, democracy is protected, albeit at greater cost in this instance.
You can assign multiple interfaces to an EC2 instance and each of those can have a static IP. I think there is a hard cap on the amount of interfaces you can assign to a single machine, so you'd still have to scale out horizontally at some point.
