Good. The better product will win out.

If I was working on the Edgeium team, I would beg the Windows and Bing people to be less heavy-handed. It's a quality product, but the advertising and nudging is souring me.
There is a fire risk, but competent chamber operators will make sure that patients don't bring in any ignition sources or highly flammable objects.

There will also be some pulmonary oxygen toxicity effects. Based on the protocol described those will be limited and resolve quickly in most patients.

The oxygen exposure is too limited to cause any significant risk of neurological effects, like a seizure.

So I don't know whether this treatment is actually effective but it's not particularly dangerous.
Weellll... I guess you could get rid of the OS and switch to a stack-only ABI with a callee saves-everything policy? Then "thread switching" and "multiprocess" both map onto saving/restoring the stack (on ARM you'd have to have SP/LR motion to stack), and process communication would just be over a unified stack.

What'd be cool is if every core (and, thus, affinitized process) had its own virtual address. That way if any single core went down, its neighbors could stand it back up. Of course, you'd have to have some sort of hideous last-level shared virtual addressing scheme — probably with large last level pages — to "migrate" a "process" between cores.

EDIT: And security be damned! We need that last .5%!
Cigar? Let's go full on and do ciggies. You don't inhale cigars so how is the good stuff supposed to get into your body? Gotta inhale that sweet sweet smoke and get it in there real good.
The problem is the Internet did teach people that scientists disagree, but people didn’t use that to develop healthy self-skepticism (really the core of good science is to not fool oneself) but instead to weaponize science to fight in the culture war. The “skeptics” are not skeptical of their own, often inane ideas, but “skeptical” of everything on the other side of the culture war.

People LARP as scientists, but they only use that skepticism to avoid expert wisdom. Science is messy, scientists are fallible, and yet it’s better than any other process we’ve got. But people think that fallibility is therefore evidence that the fake certainty of chiropractic alternative medicine or conspiracy theories or woo is better.

I’m not sure it has been a net good at all to teach about skepticism but not going all the way to instill self-skepticism.
I suspect they will buckle -- but only partially, with an allowlist of browsers blessed with this ability. This will quiet the noise, but will also make it harder for small and innovative browsers to compete, as I doubt Microsoft will build out the processes to become blessed due to cost/benefit.
I wasn't involved in the decision and can't recall everything, but I remember a couple things:

- We have A LOT of environments, so GCP Secrets pricing climbed really quickly.

- Interest in dynamic secrets
Looking forward to this. I quite enjoyed C# but the boiler plate of ASP.NET always turned me off.
> I think Rust is a good example of a language that has a pretty high level of complexity at this point.

I'd say the opposite. Just look at how it compares to C++. Even Swift is a rather complex language when compared to Rust.
Sorry, mate!
The quote speaks to the body, and it's representation in art. It acknowledges that the body decays and this is great suffering. Yet the inside is still filled with life and love, in defiance of the outward decay, and a great artist can show this. That in fact the bodies decay is even more interesting and beautiful than the beauty of youth and health.

By characterizing the quote in the way you have, you've willfully ignored this intent, which was clear in the quote and in my usage of it. You've denied the beauty of decay, the notion that value can be ascribed to the elderly.

And why, because Heinlein acknowledges what we all know, that the two universal indicators of attractiveness are youth and health? And that we lose both over time?

In any event, this is my last message on this thread; I've made my point. As for poetry, yes, I try and usually fail. But I try, and I will keep trying no matter what.
Just to clarify, I wasn't suggesting that schema validation will ever be able to "fix" a breaking change to an API, intentional or not.

And I'm not suggesting that you release new versions of server-side APIs without doing the same on the client-side. (although I understand there are a whole lot of deployments where that's the norm)

What I'm suggesting is that if there are changes made on the server-side that introduce breaking changes to the schema, should be easily picked up at build time (test phase, maybe even compilation).

Of course there are going to be exceptions to this when perhaps using a language's truthiness, or code that converts everything in the payload to a string... But I', pretty sure for 99% of the cases, esp if you use the schema and tools based on schema (code gen) you'll end up in a better place.
You could probably perform some sort of math personality test by asking which proof the respondent likes best! I was particularly charmed by #5 (construct a volume of revolution, then slice it two ways).
How is this measured?
It could very well be that PHP is easier to distribute, and gets used in lots of groupware/industry-standard software that's deployed thousands of times across thousands of organizations. I'd imagine that kind of market share piles up after a while.
if frameworks in other languages were compelling to use in place of wordpress, we wouldn't even be having this discussion right now
The Orthodox theologian David Bentley Hart (who has translated the New Testament) has suggested "bread adequate for the day's needs:"

"'Daily bread,' admittedly, is almost accurate enough, though the phrase would better be rendered 'bread adequate for the day's needs'; but I doubt most of us quite hear the note of desperation in that phrase 'τὸν ἄρτον ἡμῶν τὸν ἐπιούσιον δὸς ἡμῖν σήμερον'—the very real uncertainty, suffered every day, concerning whether today one will have enough food to survive."

But this in the context of a larger argument, in which the Lord's Prayer is presented quite specifically as a prayer intended to be uttered by the destitute.

Considering the Taliban were from their inception an alliance of wealthy landlords and mullahs funded by the US to deal with the socialist and secular revolution underway in Afghanistan during the late 70's, it's no surprise.

One of the most impressive PR moves the US succeeded at in the cold war was convincing the world that the Mujahadeen were freedom fighters and not thugs for rich local assholes.
As an ex PHP developer, I don’t think it will ever go away. There is just way to much software that was written in PHP (e-commerce, blogs, CMS systems, Nextcloud/ownCloud, …) that isn’t going away.

PHP isn’t something I ever want to touch again (its libs are wonky and I dislike the syntax choices of the last years) but the execution model was sort of nice before the frameworks (an entry point with a clean state you can work yourself through).

The statistics are a bit misleading though. Just because 80% of the sites run PHP in some way doesn’t mean there are that many Jobs. A lot of the work with PHP world is not necessarily going to be PHP work (a lot of HTML, JavaScript and Plugin configuration) and there is complexity in learning your way around a system well enough to build plugins. The jump from beginner to expert has become harder for a new PHP programmer because the real programming is hidden behind a wall of already existing code that just needs to be installed, configured and customized.

I’m glad I got out when I did because I get to actually program APIs and Single Page Apps rather than just being a glorified PHP webpage mechanic.
I haven’t yet watched the video, but Minecraft definitely has an official marketplace and in game currency. It is for the pocket edition/bedrock edition

I’ve bought numerous skins and game mods for myself and the kids to enjoy.

From what little I understand this is quite different from the Java edition, but I don’t really know.
When it is purely about ASP.NET, getting rid of the old style Startup class is ok for me.

The code is more compact, concise and less verbose. Most of the code in the startup is not touched in any meaningful sense after the initial setup.
Also very popular with people who do write PHP for a living.

Did a quick skim again and seems a lot of the complaints are outdated by now, but probably no hope to see the author to update their rant.
I think it’s the “requiring” a review part that comes across as not trustworthy. A review isn’t required on my team, but we do it most of the time. There have been plenty of trivial changes I’ve made where getting a review would have been a waste of everyone’s time or just been “rubber stamped” anyway. I just my team and my team trusts me to make that judgement call.
Yes I was originally considering crawling and indexing on my local machine as well but once I realised I could build this with Searx and leave all of that work to Bing/Google/DDG/... it removed a lot of complexity from the project, and also means I don't have to worry about optimising the quality of the results. That said, there is scope to do more work around plugging all the result sets together: Searx's approach is quite naive and doesn't work as well in this use case as it does in it's original/intended use case.
I wonder how much of that is wordpress, they have a really large user base and run on php
thats astounding. well done you lot :-)
How to Use Psychology to Increase MFA Adoption
Common cognitive biases may be impacting your MFA adoption rates; here are some ways to counter those impacts.
Was going to guess it was by microscopic blackouts every second where sensors would detect the source of any light that remains.
Absolutely it will. Everytime you try and force a labor law, companies have people who are smart and figure out a way around it. Now they can tell Uber drivers when they will work and where they will work. So if you don’t want to work the night shift, too bad. They will keep the part time hours to just the minimum needed and whatever shortfall they have to hit their yearly plan will be supplemented by releasing drivers who won’t work busy and profitable times. If you are the guy who drives a few evenings a week on the side, you may be out of luck.
That's not so much an effect of years of hard work as it is that as you get older your capacity for hard work declines. Also we already have government pensions. So why should a company have to provide them? The economic effect of this is that workers have to wait years for some of their pay instead of getting it right now.
A bit off-topic, but why would you take a taxi for that trip? A train to the city leaves evert 15 minutes and costs you only €14. By car it's a 30km ride!

This is true for basically every single European city. Public transport is of such high quality that taking a taxi simply doesn't make sense.
And then the heat might become a new source of leak, given precise enough instruments.
The bad rap was probably due to older versions. I used to program PHP in a professional setting (quite a while ago) and it basically interchangeable as any other system script (bash) executed by a parent http server process.

The language itself at the time was mostly useful because you could execute a script made of HTML (or anything really) with some embedded magic tags interpreted as PHP instead of the opposite where you had to do some sort of template engine.
I did open an issue on GitHub to gauge interest in upstreaming it :) If you like it, leave a thumbs up :) https://github.com/searx/searx/issues/2952
You're a second person trying to cancel the author, under such an article. Funny.
We should distinguish between applications developed in PHP, from installations of apps which happen to be developed in PHP.

I suspect one would see the former drop off a cliff, whilst the latter will always be quite high -- due to first-mover effects.
It swings that way for PHP as well. Several large PHP frameworks don't report PHP in the literal sense in the response headers.
Yep. My employer is a mix of PHP and JS.

PHP 8 for our API, JS for the app that consumes it - sharing code both server-side and client-side.

It works really well for us.

Development on a modern version of PHP with a framework like Symfony or Laravel is so very different to development on old PHP5 versions.

edit: PHP 7.x and 8 let you do things like:

- no automatic type conversions

- typed function parameters and return types

- typed object properties

- named parameters

All of these are little niceties but they add up to making it fantastically easier to avoid stupid mistakes that used to be common with PHP.
i love how fortran and matlab are in their own industrial bubbles
At first glance, this looks great, almost 20% speedup!

But genuine question, this looks to be how almost every new tech begins. Initially it's FAST because it keeps things as barebones as possible, and everything else other than the specific module can be ignored.

But no feature works in isolation, so as more features get added – scheduling constraints, safety quirks, or random features that cut across the language – the 20% looks like nothing.

I did go through the blog, but how can one be sure that this 20% gap is a guaranteed design advantage, and not just a temporary deferral of everything else?
As I said, the current mandate and OP are matters of workplace safety. You cannot contract HIV under normal workplace conditions, so it is not equivalent or germane to this discussion. Likewise, employers in the US are free to require invasive tests for drugs and alcohol at will, and discriminate against those who abuse them.
But why? generally you don't test controllers directly.

You test "service"/"handler" classes that handle those requests.

If you want to test controllers, then you write E2E tests that send HTTP requests

Here's some example of how it might look like

Even leaving the query blank shows a few NSFW things that suggest they really did just look for any and all image-caption pairs they could find!
Although I do agree with all of this. I sometimes feel like "distributes the responsibility" can actually cause things to slip through the cracks. The reviewer thinks "eh, I didn't write this, what I saw looked fine" and the author thinks "hey they approved it, so I'm not out on a limb here", causing both sides to look at the code less closely.

I'm not saying that always happens, but it does sometimes in my experience.
TFA seems to say that Chrome and others don't yet do it like Firefox does. If this really turns out to be an advantage watch the others copying the reverse-engineered code. I assume you could look it up in the Firefox repo now?
This comment was moved from a dupe that was worded differently
They’re already like 50% efficient with the inefficient 50% largely being the phone acting like an inductive pan and heating up, so what’s a bit more heat.
That's silly. Chrome has become so dominant that it'd be a good move on MS's part to help segment the browser market by supporting Firefox
Oxford's cancer vaccine/immunotherapy combo to head for human trials
It's probably because it makes it difficult to dodge taxes when Uber registers all the transactions ;)
In New York, the taxis with "medallions" are required to take you to places within the metro area. I'm not sure at what point that requirement sets in, whether it's hailing, or once you're in the cab, etc. but it's well-known that you can report them for refusing to take you somewhere.
What is the difference between those freelance software engineers and the Uber drivers if they are freelancing for one company only?

As far as I know, and I am happy to be corrected by somebody more knowledgeable, the famous Dutch ZZP'ers are tolerated. There is in the Dutch Law not a clarification of their legal and tax position:

It is not about efficiency , it is about legacy. You can count number of Perl scripts out there and conclude that Perl is still the most popular scripting/devops tool in the world
Not exactly the same but Syften (https://syften.com/) can do this kind of 'listening' for social platforms like HN, Reddit, ... . Possibly you could reach out to Michal about extending their ingest with arbitrary/custom websites?
Good point on jobs vs existing code base. It’s kind of like radio still has a lot of listeners but the amount of new stations isn’t rising as dramatically as other mediums.
PHP 8 has been out since November. It adds some typing but everything is optional. PHP has always been a loosely typed language. Converting to a strongly typed language would against the grain of the entire culture and history of PHP.

https://www.php.net/supported-versions.php
https://www.php.net/releases/8.0/en.php
The poster points to the fact that typically you have Jira tickets to write the code, and that’s assigned to you, and that adds to your velocity, but the reviewer of the code doesn’t get any credit for spending time on this. Thus in teams where the program manager doesn’t try to account for code review and they actually try to incentivize velocity (both stupid), you’re not incentivized to do thorough code reviews.
Offish-topic: PHP docs are awesome.
Was that also the case for taxi businesses in European countries with functional social states? Because, this being a legal ruling in Europe, US precedent doesn't really matter.
This is more functional. C# is an multi paradigm language.

There is not a big difference between an FP module and an OOP static or single instance class.
PHP is still by far the most used server-side language

...due to WordPress, I'm guessing.
I tell people all the time about how good the Ruby job market is. Lots of opportunities and not a ton of people to fill them for some reason.

People from other languages don’t seem to want to believe it.
It depends, there's a lot of local and national regulations in different countries.

For example in my part of the UK, only designated taxis can pick up ride hailers on the street, sort of like black cabs in London.

Private firms who use their own fleet of cars can only offer pre-booked services, e.g. pre booked airport runs.

Uber and co. shook this up a bit by offering a grey area, where the taxi ride isn't exactly hailed on the street (instead through the app) and is sort of "pre-booked" when you request it as the driver has to accept the job.
This is exactly it. Lower friction wins. You can just upload PHP scripts and go, while almost everything else requires many more installation steps or even monstrosities like Kubernetes.
>>> if Netflix is "best in class" and makes users happy, why isn't Apple on that level

>> Come on, let’s be specific here instead of vague hand waving.

Well, that about sums up the thoughtful discussion of people saying how bad Apple pay is right there.
As far as I understand, you need to change the app store country when you move internationally and have a bank account in another country. To keep purchases made before the move, you need to switch regions.
Coming up with your own narrow definition of a widely accepted term and attacking someone else for using its widely accepted definition is a one-way ticket to a toxic interaction, which ends here.

(I love the idea of a bootloader I could play Doom on!)
The issue is that jets are super inefficient for thrust. That’s why all modern passenger jets use the jet core just as a power source pretty much and rely on the bypass fan for almost all of the thrust. There’s no good reason to replicate the jet core when you can just use an electric motor to drive the bypass fan directly.
When it comes to coding, I don't trust my colleagues, but I don't trust myself either. If a second or third pair of eyes couldn't spot any issues in a PR, then it might be the correct solution.
That's 100% correct, it shows a lack of trust in myself, because I know that I am a failable person who occasionaly writes code under conditions of stress and lack of sleep and appreciates having my coworkers sanity check my work.

Honestly if anything, code reviews show an abundance of trust in the development team because I trust that my coworkers will see things that I did not.
If you're a freelancer, a client could not be enforcing the demand that you don't work for other similar employers, nor demand that you take every single gig that they ask you to do.

Uber wants it both ways, and correctly, the courts have stopped them from doing so.
No not really. Your claim (perhaps in bad faith) is that HIV and Covid should be treated as equivalents (or that it is at least hypocritical to NOT consider them equivalents). However that is not relevant to this particular discussion or mandate. One is a matter of workplace safety. One cannot be contracted under normal work conditions.
That's not an argument or a conversation.
I think juniors reviewing the code of seniors - and feeling comfortable that nobody will judge them for asking questions - is even better.

Among other things, it introduces them to parts of the code they wouldn't otherwise get to touch, which helps them get a broader understanding of the context in which they're working. And it helps communicate that they, too, own the code and are full members of the team, not just peons in some hierarchy.
So every time I drove off with the engaged parking brake I had my car sliding in the turns? Great news: I appear to have so much muscle memory that I was able to drive without even noticing that.
Ah this looks beyond amazing, thanks!

Python always struggled with the “2 language problem” - you want something flexible and malleable to code in most of the time (-> usually slow) and something fast in small doses (-> usually rigid and compiled).

C/C++ is good but requires heavy scaffolding. Fortran has AFAIK good support, but it’s Fortran. There used to be an unholy and very useful utility called “scipy.weave” that lets you run inline C++, I think it was a coding abomination and now is gone.

The recommended way is using Cython, but I find it generally neither nice nor fast.

Nim could seriously be it for me.
PHP is a great fit for most web projects. It is battle tested with great backwards compatibility, fast, offers the best deployment story and combines the advantages of dynamic and static typing with it's gradual typing system (Think Typescript without the complexity of Typescript.)

The next version is even going to improve on its weakest point, concurrency, with Fibers:
https://php.watch/versions/8.1/fibers

Sure we all remember the bad old times and the horrible legacy projects that are still around but let's no forget PHP allowed the average Joe to hack up his own dynamic websites without jumping any hurdles. It helped democratize the internet for a while.

I really don't get why PHP is not more liked in hacker circles. Probably needs some new languages with slightly different syntax that transpiles to it for it to be hip again.
