When you push a package to crates.io, docs.rs will do a static analysis of this package and its dependencies and try its best to create meaningful links between the traits and implementing types.

The issue is that it is quite common to have trait definitions in one create being used by other ones.
Often this is even done when a single library gets too large
e.g. tokio, one incentive for splitting being compile time.

However since analysis happens upwards the dependency tree, nodes further up the chain won't know what's below them and can't link to them.

You'd essentially have to do whole creates.io analysis, and while in theory that's feasible with static analysis, rusts type system is so powerful that you have to run a lot of the compiler to get meaningful "static" information, and thus would need a faster compiler/type checker.

(Ranty tangent ;) :
I'm not sure if static analysis is even feasible with rusts massive complexity, and implementation defined behaviours.
I mean nobody actually _knows_ if rust is save, it's just generally assumed. The closest thing to a formal proof that I know of is Oxide (https://arxiv.org/abs/1903.00982).
The rust "commitee" tends to defer so many descisions into the future as to not accidentally paint themselves into a corner, that the spec is just the code and a bunch of thoughts in heads, RFCs, and github issues.

Hoare comes to mind:
There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult.)

So the "classes implementing this interface" which exists in the Java world, and which is really useful for exploring an API doesn't really exist for crates (at least not automatically).

It creates these Trait islands, where you can navigate to, but not away from.
it's a very different situation. The money the artist stole never belonged to him, it wasn't his salary or a budget he was allowed to spend on the fabrication of the art. He had a specific contract and he was paid to take that 84k$ and lay it on a canvas to replicate a previous art piece he had done. The cash was supposed to be returned to the museum after.

It doesn’t work like that in any other industry, why should it work for software? Mechanical engineers don’t put prototypes into production, why should software engineers?
See my comment history for thoughts on AT&T. Unless you're in one of their strong markets (Georgia?) or using taxpayer subsidized and prioritized service through Firstnet, they are the worst of the major carriers. It's no surprise DISH partnered with them after running spectrum hoarding scam for over a decade.

Congratulations! So happy for you. I'm sure others in this community are too.

Some Qs:

In as competitive a space that Amplitude operates in, what were some decisions the company took during tough periods or in anticipation of dooms-day scenarios that you think proved invaluable?

Consequently, what moments do you think would have killed Amplitude if not for luck or execution or vision or hardwork?

What is that unique insight the competition still doesn't get?

Thanks.

I have about half of those traits - again I’m not saying ADHD isn’t a possible factor to some level :). I have a laser focus, but no time blindness (just memory gaps related to dissociation), I don’t have a ton of in progress projects, I feel calm in emergencies (every emergency is simpler than my catastrophizing mind has already come up with), I have a hypersensitivity to some stimulants and normal w others, I don’t really speak too fast for people nor listen to vids at 1.5/2x, I can infodump but don’t unless I’m damn sure they wanna hear it, I have auditory sensitivity/a bit of a filtering problem in loud places but rarely miss what someone in front of me is saying, I don’t complete others sentences often (it’s usually rude), and I like writing long messages about things I have spent a lot of my life learning about. I also do relate things to myself when empathizing but also sometimes don’t if someone is in obvious distress.

Broadly a lot of those can come from different sources I think. A lot of mental horsepower could explain many of them, in a way?

Otoh, I basically raised myself emotionally - I had absent (emotionally) or commandeering parents and had a very insecure early attachment. I spent most of my time from middle and high school drugged up on medications and spent a ton of time alone - a big factor there was it was I was raised in an extreme religious environment and told I was better than everyone else and that I should act in an extremely specific “godly” way that opened me up for lots of bullying. Pulling apart the pieces of “what happened” has been a lifelong task.
Addendum: the paper actually mentions the Sharpe ratio, which is a general, popular measure of risk adjusted returns, but which fails to take into account the non-normality of the distribution of returns; so, while my previous comment may be incorrect in a Gaussian world, I would be curious to see the results when the performances are evaluated under the assumption of fat tailed processes, which I presume would paint a very different picture.
>The purpose of this paper is to show that all the samples of any arbitrary dataset X can be reproduced by a simple differentiable equation: fα(x) = sin^2 (2^xτ arcsin √α)

So... use a PRNG?

Movie pass was literally a loss for the vast majority of its investors. If anything it was a wealth transfer from the public/private market to the app users who got extremely subsidized movie tickets. Moviepass was a total loss for it's investors, so how does that not prove the opposite of what's being argued here
Last time I went to MOMA, there was a huge composition that looked like an all-black canvas. Didn't look out of place. But when you get closer, find that it's covered in a thick layer of dead flies. It was a hoot. Take or leave the composition itself; the biggest fun was in watching other patrons' reaction to the piece.

When I buy art, it's usually from folks who live on the street, not from galleries.

There’s definitely some of that. In my experience, pretty much every “Teams” product is really just for larger orgs to simplify orchestration. Plus people pay for usage regardless.

We’ll be adding more team centric stuff (more granular permissions, SSO, etc) to make this a bit more appealing/collaborative

> Then it was infected with all sorts of Functional Programming paradigms grafted on top of Javascript

The whole thing has been functional programming from the start, if you know what algebraic effects are then the functional underpinning should be obvious to you as well as anyone with the slightest brush with FP. Hell, the original React prototype was in Standard ML, later ported to OCaml and then JavaScript.

> Throwing Promises for Suspense is basically Algebraic Effects

The fact that you disregard Suspense as a head-scratching algebraic effect, instead of using simple "Promises" goes to show how much the JavaScript ecosystem seems to be about fooling people into doing functional programming without triggering their gut reaction of "FP is spooky unproven thing, but Node enterprise ready!".

Imagine for a second that a Promise's .then is called .bind, put it in a thunk if you want to be extra precise and tell me what it is. Hint: It starts with "M" and it's just a monoid in the category of endofunctors.

> "keeping harmful, intentional disinformation away from people"

This is begging the question though. It's assuming that "harmful, intentional disinformation" is 1) well-defined and 2) always going to be determined by those with your best interests at heart. It relies on a blind faith in the fundamental and eternal moral purity of Facebook and other mega-corporations. I wholeheartedly disagree that they fit this mold.

This is true even if you turn your religious passion towards government institutions instead of Facebook. Do you similarly agree that criminal trials and due process are unnecessary? After all, the same pre-hoc confidence in your ability to categorize without rigor leads to "Why would we want criminals going free due to technicalities and lawyer's tricks?". I assume you don't agree with this statement, because in that context, you've internalized the idea that institutions are both corruptible and flawed even when uncorrupted, and it behooves us as a society to have some epistemic humility instead of pretending that Truth is carved onto clay tablets and handed down from God.

If you've paid any attention to the pandemic, you'd know that even a situation where government is in full control of defining "misinformation" can be consistently and significantly misleading. "Mask truther" used to mean someone who thought wearing masks was a good idea for preventing spread, discussing the lab leak hypothesis was "misinformation", the vaccines were "rushed and unsafe" until Trump was out of office, etc etc etc. It's hard to pick a topic where it wasn't trivial to front-run official advice by several months, repeatedly, over the entire pandemic.

It's a bit of a paradox: The very certainty and (illusory) Truth-with-a-capital-T that you take for granted is forged through a process of skepticism, second-guessing, and constant poking at beliefs. Hamstringing that process is like killing the golden goose to make more room for all the eggs you plan to have.
Like anything else this is just my opinion, but I do think being more connected to nature would improve our lives vs what's now being normalized: working in an office all day, commuting, and staring at various screens in your free time. I believe the modern lifestyle contributes a lot to the chronic stress, anxiety, etc that are so common nowadays. This is quantitative, to an extent: spending time in nature has a measurable and positive impact on your well-being:

> JITs don't need static type information, because they have that information available to them anyway.

I've heard that V8 can specialize functions but will sometimes unspecialize them if you use them with unexpected types. Using static typing can push your code into patterns that "helps" the JIT, even if it doesn't use directly the type information that you wrote.
Yep. Every western country I know of except America, has only a token gesture of human rights and they're only rights that happened to match the culture at the time with no longer term vision at all.

New Zealand, for example has its Bill of Rights Act which says no forced medical procedures. Somebody was recently fired for refusing a Covid vaccine and went to court arguing that right. The judge said, yea, there is that right, but also the government can revoke it whenever they feel like for any reason they want, and they have, so no luck.

Discrimination based on race or sex? Certainly not! Oh, except for hiring domestic workers, selecting flatmates, decency, safety, sports, etc, etc. In other words, all the places where people were already doing discrimination.

The UN's ambitiously named "Universal Declaration of Human Rights" has 28 rights for people, and a 29th right of governments to deny any of those rights for reasons of morality, public order, general welfare of democratic society. In other words, any reason whatsoever.

Remember freedom of internal travel? China used to be a human rights violator for restricting that. Now every country and its dog is doing the same. But this time it's "us" not "them", so it's all OK.

There's a couple of people sharing it on soulseek.
It's not an easy question to answer, but the majority of the cost were salaries and marketing. We didn't consider the one-off costs of e.g. legal, from what I remember.

It was in the order of thousands (I think either $2k or $22k, sorry for the rounding error) per user signup that Uber paid in terms of marketing and advertising - and that was regardless of if they generated any money. It was way more for driver signups since the driving bonuses were pretty sizeable.

The amount of staff Uber has is way too much, in my opinion. Uber's internals are the definition of "over-engineered", to the point things were just too complicated for any single person to really work with, let alone understand to any degree. We had teams internally that were making the same thing but had no idea each other existed - and this happened pretty frequently.

There was a lot of turn and restructuring in upper management, not to mention pulling out of China and then having months in a row with almost daily sexual harassment/discrimination/bad CEO news stories breaking out. So the rest of the company was just kind of left to fend for itself for a long time, just burning even more money despite nothing getting released.

I knew one other engineer that... to this day, I'm not sure he even wrote a single line of code. He was always hanging around other people, wanting to chat. When you'd casually ask "so what are you working on these days?" he'd just shrug and smile. Never got a straight answer out of him. He was higher up in the ranks than I was, younger, assumedly paid more. Couldn't answer basic questions about writing code, but loved to brag about his new designer shoes and stuff. Just an anecdote.

It was insanity. Everyone I personally interacted with hated working there, and it was clear it was way too crowded. That, along with the marketing/ad spend, made me convinced Uber would never be profitable.

Here is a top 100 of the most referenced LODA programs.
https://github.com/loda-lang/loda-rust/blob/develop/document...

OEIS has a number of references from other sequences. If it's a popular sequence then the number of references is high. Usually it's humans that specify the references.

Unlike OEIS, the LODA programs references are mined. The most popular LODA program (A132106) has only a few references in OEIS, maybe it's overlooked in OEIS.

Hard-working (i.e. working hard) does not exclusively mean "working at hard physical labor". You are not insane.
The heart of any anti-* sentiment is DOUBT. And in case of covid vaccines part of that doubt is totally legit. Yes, in a history of mankind there was never a medical substance so rushed to the market. And yes, our current covid vaccines are far from perfect. All you can do to counter these facts are bring another facts. And not shutting down intelligent reasonable people discussing all those facts.

We don't remember people who got other theories than Galileo. We don't even remember those who judged him. Because in the end all is remains is proven unshakable science.

>> By contrast, public funding for code is buying code (at least in theory).

Funding developers is a risk as to weather the results will be what you hope. Paying for software is actually paying rent on something already complete. A typical software company uses the rent they collect on prior work to fund the newer risky work. The big companies are mostly doing the rent thing to pay shareholders.
I predict a three stage pundit response to inflation:

Stage 1:
No, inflation isn't happening and what you're seeing isn't inflation at all. In fact, the exact opposite thing is happening because of [insert interpretation here]. You should really be more worried about deflation, that's the real issue.

Stage 2:
Okay, some inflation is happening and it's actually normal, expected, and a good thing! Please don't be afraid. Here's how inflation can actually help you...

Stage 3:
Yes, inflation has happened and it will continue for an unknown amount of time. That's actually positive and you should be thankful for it.
This is beautiful. The real numbers are uncountable, so seems intuitive that could approximate any other space with them... basically a hash function. But this one has an inverse! It's so cool that someone actually implemented this.
He said that at the time because COVID wasn't endemic all over the USA and he didn't want folks going out and hoarding all of the N95 masks which were needed at the time most critically for hospital workers.

Once the situation changed and everyone needed to wear a mask he said that folks should go out and buy masks (and after the supply gap was closed a bit).
‘The Aristocracy of Talent’ Review: Getting Ahead, Falling Behind
It's not either-or. You're right you're mostly trading with a market internalizer, which is pocketing the spread (ie. bid: 10.00, ask: 10.05) but isn't really making money on price movements. However, you're still against hedge funds/banks for medium/long term price movements (eg. you buying a stock after they pumped it, and selling after they dumped it).
>But does it take years for the effect to show up after the alpha gal leaves your system?

For this specific change, no. But the point is that there is ample chance for mRNA to induce semipermanent and/or permanent changes and there's no guarantee that they'll be detected early, especially when the vast majority of clinicians aren't even looking for them.

If these vaccines do indeed, say, increase long term risk of cancer or heart problems, it will likely take years or even decades to detect especially when there is a rigid, top down enforced taboo around questioning the safety/efficacy of the vaccine. Yet another reason that censorship like this is dangerous.

Researchers also get some of their ideas through free exchange on social media. Especially when the academic establishment develops a rigid orthodoxy around a topic; when all of the institutions align behind a single preemptive conclusion and then collude to suppress even rational, science based dissent across all platforms, your society stumbles down the false path of one sided research.

I think I agree and disagree with you. I agree with the value of preservation, as a hobbyist collector and archivist myself. However I agree with the notion that all culture and aspects of a particular culture are of equal worth. If I had to choose in a house fire, I'd take a hard drive full of my favorite youtube videos and movies, and leave behind the hard drive full of mobile game advertisements and mid level marketing media. Would you do the same, or would you actually have a hard time choosing?
Living in a world designed and geared towards others is always going to be harder. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was not born with nor had any dysfunction, affliction, malady, sickness, infirmity, disability, defect, or disorder that caused him to grow to 7’ 2” tall but if you asked him, other than basketball, how easy was it for him to fit into a world built and geared for people well shorter than him, I’m sure he will explain how difficult it is whether it’s fitting into a seat on a bus or a plane or finding pants or shoes that fit. No one would refer to him as having a disorder; he’s just much, much taller than most people. How your brain focuses on tasks or filters stimulating inputs is not a disorder. Embrace that diversity that is you.

< https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/basics/neurodiversity >

Neurodiversity refers to the idea that neurological differences, such as those seen in autism or ADHD, reflect normal variations in brain development. Neurodiversity is often contrasted with the “medical model,” which views conditions like autism or ADHD as disorders to prevent, treat, or cure. There has been a push to move away from this idea of pathology and more toward a more nuanced perspective with variations of what is “normal.”
