Thanks for the clarification. Your links aren't working now (site maintenance).

However, I did view them initially. The study abstracts mentioned immunotherapy, I didn't even realise we were capable of "de-programming", or that that was a considered immunotherapy!

My 3 year old daughter is the Type 1 diabetic in our family. However, I'm immunosuppressed due to a (seemingly) entirely unrelated autoimmune disease, Sarcoidosis. I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for this more targeted approach to immunotherapy.

If you happen to have links to any other papers/articles using similar techniques (even for different diseases) then I'd be quite curious to read up on the topic. Thanks!

> I want to have a purely functional domain that I wrap in an imperative shell. Trying to model side-effects in a purely functional manner using something like applicative functors just doesn't give the productivity boost that I want.

Funtional Reactive is a very good way to create that mix. Web Front developers have realized that, and that's the reason why most modern frameworks have been veering towards this model slowly, with Promises and Observers everywhere.

When you represent state as an asynchronous stream that you process with pure functional methods, you get a straightforward model with the best of both paradigms.

I do that too. A friend "stole" that idea from the tour of go, I really like it. Just go generate before building to make add static files, go build, done. 1 binary, it just works.

I read this title as: "Functional programming [is popular, but not] because it is weird."

I was hoping how it would discuss how building software using functional programming techniques made the paradigm uniquely suitable for popular use.

Anyway, I digress.
Small examples of mutating state in Haskell are about as meaningful as small examples of pure functions in Java. Small examples are really easy to do and not that ugly, bigger more complex examples don't look so nice. The whole reason people want to use Haskell is because doing complex state mutations is horribly ugly and unergonomic so people don't do it, that is a feature of the language.

I actually used the latest Android Blackberry (Key 2 LE) until a month ago when it slipped from my pocket and fell from the first floor balcony.

I really, really wanted to get another hardware keyboard, but the Key 2 is both dated (Android 6 IIRC) and commands ridiculous collector's prices.

And there are no newer ones - Fxtec has vaporware that has its release pushed back three times already, and the new owner of Blackbarry apparently has announced a new phone, but nothing concrete yet.

So I have a "normal" phone now, but really don't like to use it for typing.

Key point. The AI generated character is the medium; the vast majority of effort was put into the marketing and the "story" of this character.
They could also assume that not filing assumes standard deduction. The government is already told about nearly everything. The weirdness comes if you work two jobs or are self-employed, which is why the quarterly estimates exist.
I can totally commiserate with you on the headphones. Not even kidding, at one point I suspected that the powers that be got rid of 1/8 inch jacks just to electrocute political dissidents and enemies of the state by the push of a button. Is it really so far fetched? Thunderbolt can push 3 amps (please correct me if I’m wrong - I’m going by the USB-C spec), and .1 amps is lethal. Bzzzt!

Anyway, I’m not trying to get down on you - I was just pointing out that nothing is intended to last forever. I once considered buying a military grade reinforced laptop that was way under specced just because I wanted to take it wherever I wanted and be able to bang it around.

The truth is that electronics are easily damaged. Take fiber optic cables for instance. If you bend them ever so slightly too far they will stop working, because the throughput medium is glass. It’s just the nature of the medium.

Arguably, we are the most advanced machines on this planet, and yet if we slip and hit our our head, our machinery could easily be put out of commission. I think it’s fair to expect machinery to fail outside of its intended use case. Have you ever bent a piece of copper wire back and forth and feel it get warm before it breaks? That’s just the nature of the material. It is what it is, you know?

I’m not saying that you’re wrong to want or expect sturdier constructs - because they are often available for a price (using less abundant materials). I’m just saying that if you want that it’s probably not going to be consumer grade, and it’s not going to be cheap.
OP wasn't making any value judgement like this. They were simply questioning if there is actually a story here.

The media tends to notice little phenomena like this and paint them as if it's a cultural megatrend.

> you showed up with some weird bottle

There's nothing weird about a 1-quart bottle of Mobil 1, it's the same basic form factor retail oil quarts have been sold in since they stopped being steel cans, i.e. before most Jiffy Lube employees were born.

The problem isn't the bottle, the problem is a combination of carelessness and incompetence. Which is what you're going to get with a high probability at these low-level positions, good luck with that.

Miss blackberry phones with physical keyboard, once I got familiar with it, it didn’t matter if I was responding to sms or email it was always pleasure to type up the response.

Now you have to tap your wireless headphones and imaginary keyboard no feedback and pleasure for your fingers
So, I've been curious about nextcloud for a good while, does Hetzner keep the version of NextCloud up-to-date? Which functionality is included? I'm also looking at Tab.digital from the Nextcloud hosting partners list and they seem to offer a lot of functionality at the private cloud tier that is roughly the same price as the NX20 tier at Hetzner with less storage. I do not need a lot of storage, but having the ability to make extensive use of Nextcloud integrations would be nice, which is not clear from Hetzner's comparison chart.

Aha! How would you know?!

Kidding aside, I have zero clue what the actual adoption rate is for Monero in the seedy underworld of common criminality, so I can't really challenge anyone on this argument.

I can say if I were a criminal, I'd want to keep it as low tech as possible. Given how sophisticated computer forensics is, I don't think I'd be able to keep everything "clean", digitally speaking.

Not quite the same and probably not as useful, but on iPhone going to Settings > Accessibility > Audio/Visual is an option for LED Flash For Alerts. This probably isn't as useful because the flashing only occurs when the notification arrives and isn't a persistent visual indicator like I assume the BlackBerry light was.
I am somehiw overweight. This is because I do not make the small effort to eat less. That's as simple as that.

On top of that I have medical issues that make it difficult to control weight. But I am not trying to hide behind this: I should just eat less (as I have done, losing 16 kg at some point)

I am luck enough to live in a country where access to vegetables and fruit is easy, so no whining about that either. My blood tests are good, I am just carrying an extra 20 kg because of perdonal choice (which I do not like, but this is still a choice)

To the 0.1% of people who have a medical issue that prevents them from controlling weight, I am truly, honestly sorry for you.

To the x% of people who cannot for a reason or another afford/get healthy food - same.

To the others who theoretize on the philosophic aspects of them being overweight: eat fucking less, drop the heavily processed food and sugar. Yes it is hard but it is not going to happen spontaneously.

It is tiring to see people who get out of MC Donalds or have a gargantuan portion size to say that they suffer.

It is painful to see that in the US morbidly overweight prople drive in a shop, getting more sugar or bad food.

The US already suffers from all alien invasions (at least this is what I get from movies), no need to be the country bringing the distopia of WALL-E in real life.
Ah yes. The ones that time out for me almost universally.

I have only read the Edith Grossmann translation but found it quite good. I've read somewhere that it is not the most comical translation, but strives to be correct in a sense.

Microsoft introduced VBScript support in Internet Explorer. VBScript was a variant of Visual Basic and therefore a lot more familiar than JavaScript. VB was already used in MS Office and a whole generation had learned programming starting with BASIC. But it didn't matter.

Nobody would use a language which wasn't supported by the browser with the largest market share, regardless of the merits of the language.
The language might help the developers mitigate some issues but it is definitely not a solution the bad legacy code, mediocre development and test processes etc.
Concur about the C++ examples, but that's not just on the language. The author seems to be averse to whitespace to separate one chunk of code from the next.
They claim AI, but it's probably just 3d modeling and texturing. Possibly based on a real person - see also characters like Aloy, or the ones from Death Stranding. Or the attempts in recent Star Wars media to bring back deceased actors or make them younger.

> Frankly, it was pretty nice, and had powerful extensions / special commands to make use of the hardware (graphics, sounds, networking).

That was standard across all the major dialects of BASIC in that era.

Personally I was less impressed with Microsoft BASIC compared to the European counterparts.

What I never understood was in the early 80s the UK had a real lead on the computer industry with Amstrad, Acorn and Sinclair all doing some really interesting stuff. But by the late 80s / early 90s all the UK systems had disappeared and replaced with Japanese consoles and American home computers. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against Japanese nor American corporations -- it just feels like a real loss for the UK to go from world leaders to just another consumer.
That sounds like philosophical zombie. Pain is stimulus, what is distinction?

Show HN: A collection of interface elements (inspiration for designers and devs)
‣ In a nutshell

Hi, I am Stephan and I created this website collecting interface elements across various products (with a focus on B2B and SaaS, especially on desktop).

‣ Why?

For me it was time-consuming researching how other designers solved certain UI problems. Especially when the problems are niche or tricky – like "3D part viewers", "roles and permissions" or complicated filtering. I wanted a quicker way! I now compiled 300+ examples based on 150+ screenshots from 17 products so others don't have to do the same research as I did.

‣ Why (I think) it's cool

- Inspiration within a few clicks across various product types

- The interface elements are shown in isolation → clicking on them reveals the full interface for better context

- Open for contributions so it can grow quickly in content and thus usefulness – I want it to be the "Wikipedia of interface elements"

- Teaser: Once the UI element collection is big, I am planning to launch user flows (onboarding, sign up, 2FA, etc.)

‣ Technology

I am pretty proud of the tech too:

(1) It's built using Astro (https://astro.build/) and TailwindCSS (https://tailwindcss.com/) which I discovered both via HN → It's a static site with almost 0 JS, so loading times and footprint should be pretty good.

(2) I use the design tool Figma as a data editor and database. I explain this here https://twitter.com/st_phan/status/1425138470486519808

(3) I wrote a custom grid algorithm to layout the screenshots so the client doesn't have to compute the layout (I am planning on writing a "making of"-blogpost to explain the details)

(4) I use ethical analytics using Plausible (https://plausible.io/) because nobody wants cookie banners or creepy tracking ...

‣ Thanks for reading, any feedback is welcome.
He pointed out what he seems to believe are genuine problems with the writing: no engaging story, no uplifting ending, whereas your rebuttal is nothing but an ad hominem. Right now I'd say he is making the better case for the book just not being much fun.

What exactly goes into PRs you've seen? How do they codify these steps, such that:

- Release steps can be tested while PR is being developed. That is executed somewhere, which doesn't interfere with production or ideally other developers ongoing PR should it go bad

- Upon merge production system safely transitioned from one state to another without human intervention.

Steps, for simplicity are:

- Deploy new version of the code behind new load balancer

- Make some requests through it to verify its workig

- Switch DNS to the new load balancer IP

- Wait for old load balancer new connections to die down and remove both LB and old version of the code behind it.

Two counter points spring to mind:

Python - which took perls lunch over a decade or so and now in more recent history became the obvious language when data scientists and ai/ml practitioners needed to adopt a platform. Its popularity has even led to it also expanding into education in a huge way after Python became the most popular scripting language.

Java - the jvm is an utterly amazing piece of engineering and yet still to this day most people still write java instead of the other better languages (kotlin, scala, clojure) hosted on that platform, and they deploy only to Linux environments. The platform with its write once run anywhere and industry leading garbage collector that gets better than 50% memory utilisation, isn’t the thing that attracts people - its the language.

Functional languages used to be the cool thing before object oriented design came along and unlocked the ability to build bigger systems. The ultimate programming language (lisp) has always encourages functional since what, the 60s?
