The modern market is propped up by laws that make things no one can naturally own, like words or code, into "property". Without these laws, programmers and their employers would not be collecting the same fat paycheques because all their output would be freely copyable without repercussions.

I don't much care for the hygiene hypothesis for allergies. I grew up on an acreage with all sorts of animals. I'm allergic to all of them, so much so that my parents got my allergy shots for several years. I'm most allergic to horses, which we had a trio of. It just doesn't make a lot of sense to me. And if it were true I'd much prefer more allergies to COVID.

Of note in that paper they are suggesting therapeutic strategies that involve controlled exposure of particular items, and how those exposures are fraught with potential dangers as well.
Java doesn't require you to handle exceptions. This is not the criteria you should use to determine if you need handle the exception.

The fact is that even code that does no resource acquiring could throw an exception. It might not even be a documented exception. And when it throws that exception that you may or may not have been expecting some code somewhere is going to have to figure out what to do. In java the only real way to communicate an error is to throw an exception. For some reason culturally Java has decided that it's too much work to distinguish between errors that should crash the app and errors that should be handled by the caller in some way. As a result when an exception outside of your code happens in production and you read the exception in your logs it will:

1. Not have a significant part of the information you need to debug the problem.

2. Be in code you may not have easy access to go read.

3. You will probably have no idea why it's happening.

Eventually for a long enough lived codebase you will have encountered and documented all of these in a runbook somewhere or you won't and everyone will have to have learned them over and over again.

If you are on an exceptional team you'll have caught and then wrapped or handled these exceptions to make operating the software in production less painful. But all of it could have been avoided if java had chosen a better path.

Make it impossible trap runtime exceptions. They just crash the program. Make trappable exceptions checked exceptions. The code would get more verbose. But the operational pain would have been vastly reduced.

Errors are a part of your API. Unchecked Runtime exceptions pretend like 50% of your API surface doesn't exist.
You’re kidding right? There is no such restriction on keyboards. How do you think the Bitmoji keyboard works?
Yes. Because it was. And it was, and remains, a good reason.

I get why the developer might be ticked, in this case, but I still think it's a stretch to speak of "cloning" a very very basic QWERTY keyboard, and the breathtakingly-original concept of putting a keyboard onto a touchscreen. /s

So if the author is here some feedback:

You should rewrite this with libdevmapper instead of shelling out to 10's of shell tools. It will likely be both more robust, faster and result in cleaner logic.

Otherwise the idea looks great. I would also consider adding native cloud storage option, ala S3 and friends as that would make it the most useful.

Oh sure, but melting isn't spoiling. It'll melt here sometimes too, but harden back up overnight (or in the fridge) and it's fine.

I thought we were talking about it actually spoiling, going off, growing mould or whatever. If anything ghee is worse in terms of melting isn't it? Here in the UK it's typically liquid (sold in cans) at room temperature, and will only solidify in the fridge. (As a separate point that's sort of interesting taken together with its higher smoke point than butter that hasn't been clarified. To a non-chemist such as me anyway.)

Have you considered that at the start of the year few people would have died 21 days after vaccination because that had only just happened. 6 months later more would have died as they would have had 6 months to get dying of various stuff.

I assumed that they get this option for free instead of buying an app and less stuff to install generally.

If Apple's option is worse (which I doubt, at least for English) and/or original app is free then probably consumer suffers a bit. But if consumer is worse off then it is better because AFAIK American anti-monopoly system focuses on consumer's well-being so the more examples of consumer being worse off the easier to attract courts and regulators, isn't it?
Rivian Finally Rolls Out First All-Electric Truck R1T
Thanks! Will get that fixed!
A bit of a nit on the step-by-step rundown of what happens. At step 4 it says the Lambda “dies” but I think this is misleading. The response has completed, but the Lambda has not died. In fact the process is still running which is why the mutable state issue presents.

Even if the process died, the container stopped, and the Lambda went “cold”, I wouldn’t even call that “dead”. It’s just cold. Dead would mean totally failed or decommissioned, I think.
It is hard to get away from a gas based system because of spam and resource limitations.

Regarding the expensiveness there are a lot of new technologies rolling out today such as optimistic rollups(arbitrum/optimism) and zkrollups(dydx,zksync) that allow for cheaper dapps to run. Then there is also things like Avalanche or Solana that are completely separate chains with different decentralization trade offs that allow for cheaper transactions. The space is still going through rapid advancement and experimentation.
There's no problem with a n=15 study, the problem is that there isn't a proper effective process that aggregates these small studies and the designs and conducts n=1000 ones. What we have instead is academic peacocking. (Grant applications judged by other scientists who are also at the same time in the grant game.)

Of course this is somewhat a necessary consequence of having academic freedom.
The issue with stories is they focus on unimportant bits often for propaganda reasons. Pick some arbitrary first and every country can find someone to play up as a home town hero. The US just happens to be rather quite around who “invented“ electricity but longer lasting incandescent lightbulbs and kites in lightning storms that’s the ticket. The British tend to streamline the Benchley park narrative by dropping the preceding polish contribution etc etc.

In that context narratives end up glorifying endless minutiae.

Hello!

I'm the author of this app. I wanted a simple way to create a CV that looks like a timeline and have the possibility to share it with an url. I think it's a lot easier to get an overview of ones experiences when their visualized in a timeline. I used LinkedIn before, but it started to look more and more like a social network lately and all the ads were also disturbing.

An aspect of lionization is a wish and motivation to emulate and become heroic oneself...

But one soon realizes you probably won't get heroic credit even if you do contribute something heroic, neutralizing that encouragement.

Therefore, you'd better do it for the love of the work itself or for how it helps others.

There's no limit to what you can accomplish if you don't mind who gets the credit.

I feel the same way, but I think programmers should hold their feelings and just pick up an APA, MLA or Chicago style guide or whatever the equivalent is if you're writing in British English and embrace the rules. Or if you're publishing, let an editor fix your stuff.

Every effort to make a logically consistent "engineered" language has so far failed by any reasonable measure, notably, Esperanto. Others have tried and had even less success than Esperanto. For things to even change in language usage there really has to be a pain point or some kind of trauma or isolation. Mere aspiration for aesthetics or logical consistency isn't enough. How did the American English come to be anyway? A bunch of people got on boats and went to a remote wild continent and stayed there. Forever.

American here. Placing punctuation in a quote ending a sentence is how English Composition was taught to me in grade school and in college. I took to Eng Comp early on and had at least one class in the subject from 9th grade in 1993 through my final year of college in 2003.

Besides the rain of negatives I am getting, something I expected, it seems I got a negative in this last reply.

It seems that regulators would be kind of gods where there is nothing else to say about it.

I am still waiting for a real, logical reply to who regulates regulators.

After all, we live in an overregulated world where people always complain about corporations.

However, much of this power is accumulated through lobbying to legislators. Do you people really think that regulating MORE is better?

I bet this is not the good way to go...

The idea that history is wrong to focus on "chaps" derives from marxism; and Fergusson is very much anti-marxist. The marxian view would be that historical change is the result of economic forces; that if (e.g.) Turing hadn't done it someone else would have, because economics was driving history in that direction.

I'm sympathetic to the marxian view of Great Men; I think it's no coincidence that the related work of Godel and Turing was published within a couple of decades of one-another, or that the ideas of Copernicus, Kepler and Galileo emerged around the same time as one-another.

I'm certainly impressed by the greatness of Great Men; but I'm hard-pressed to find one whose discoveries were so remarkable, in the context of their times, that noone else could have been expected to make similar discoveries around the same time.
Whenever I ask my English teacher wife about this sort of thing she reminds me that punctuation is rhetorical.

If it's important to the writer that what is quoted be identified as a sentence then I agree with you, and I'm going to start using that construction in my writing.

But when it comes to quoting words people say, is often good enough to just quote the words.

I think inequality creates fear. Even in those who profit, the fear of loosing their wealth. There was a case of a town in the US, were the population was pretty homogenous, their culture forbade the flaunting of wealth, so everybody acted humble and even dressed the same. Then the younger generation went to college out of town, came back with a differnt mindset. Pools were built, cars bought, inequality made obvious for everyone to see. What happenend?

Sure, but this is still going to be pretty limited when detecting non-PHP languages. How are you going to detect a language which puts no extra headers in HTTP response and has no associated extensions?

But, luckily for us, w3techs lets you check individual websites... and the data is often wrong or missing

github on server side is Javascript! https://w3techs.com/sites/info/github.com (it is actually Ruby)

Djagoproject.com on server side is unknown! https://w3techs.com/sites/info/djangoproject.com (it is actually Django, which is a Python web framework: https://github.com/django/djangoproject.com)

microsoft.com was using PHP and WordPress "unil recently" https://w3techs.com/sites/info/microsoft.com

gitlab.com is "ASP.NET, Python and Ruby (on subdomain) https://w3techs.com/sites/info/gitlab.com

google.com, youtube.com and amazon.com are unknown https://w3techs.com/sites/info/google.com etc..

========

I stand by my opinion that w3techs is junk when determining types of server-side language. The only reason there are so much PHP is because PHP is the biggest major language left which is easy to detect. And they hide the low quality of the results it by not including "unknown" category in the graph -- with that category, it would be much clearer how bad their detection works.

You’ll be surprised to know that Apple is quite fine with keyboards using network access. That is literally why the “Full Access” switch exists. Without it, the keyboard is fully sandboxed. It can receive input from the container app, but nothing can get out. It is surprisingly a user choice, something Apple will rarely give up on iOS.

The rejection was only because the app existed on the Apple Watch, and it was only rejected after the reviewer knew the new Apple watch would include the same feature (Note, you can’t use this feature on < 2021 apple watches, you have to pay to play.)

Belligerently? He is just rising a point.

Government “innovation” subsidies move a lot of money into shinny “new” ideas, but in EU there’s no thought about how to create innovation itself.

Just as an example, a friend of mine roasts coffee for a living. He is considering closing shop, because he is succeeding too much. At the point he is, he’ll be required to register as a business, which in Spain means he will have to pay ~300$ a month whether he makes money or not, plus 20% VAT and 20% in income taxes. Add to it the massive amount of time he’ll have to spend in paperwork (or paying someone another 100$/mo for handling it). Another good side job that will go to waste, instead of growing into a company. And it’s by no means an exception. I’ve work for tens of companies here, all of them have admitted to be flunking regulations intentionally to avoid costs during their creation to be able to exist.
