I've found that Elixir / Phoenix has given me the level of productivity / flexibility that Rails used to have. Perhaps it's not quite on the same level of productivity but long term maintainability seems to be easier in Phoenix, I think from the functional programming aspect / lack of magic.

Things I love about Phoenix over Rails:

- Background / periodic jobs are baked into the same runtime as the server. You can install Oban in about 5 minutes and have it generate periodic jobs without any messing around with additional Ruby processes or custom databases (i.e. Redis, although background jobs are great on Postgres these days)

- Anything real-time is given to you out of the box. Rails has ActionCable but like the background jobs above, it needs to be setup as a separate process. Livepage makes this very straight forward.

- Phoenix sacrifices some of Rails' magic for verbosity but I think that's a better trade off long term.

Things I've loved about Rails:

- The eco system.
You have to also account for the free 1/8. Really enjoyed returning all my cars at 7/8 and them considering it returned full :). Part of it is most fuel gauges still read full anyway.
On the other hand, if you want the EV revolution for its own sake, investing in Tesla as a generator of hype can make instrumental sense.
BMW sold 36,089 BEVs in H1 2021. Tesla sold ~385,000.
Mint is okay. Except the time that grub randomly failed for me and I had to manually fix my boot config. But at least my webcam and brightness buttons worked on my ten year old laptop, which they didn’t when I booted into windows even after spending a few hours trying to find the correct drivers.

My wife (who while smart doesn’t like tinkering with computers) has been using Ubuntu for two years now and her only complaint is “my hard drive is full and how the heck do I uninstall applications?” Even things like Microsoft Teams and all the virtual doctors meetings apps work for Ubuntu, which surprised me.

I mean Linux distros kinda suck when something goes wrong but I’m honestly impressed how long my wife’s Ubuntu laptop has been working without major issues.
It is particulary controversial for a reason.

I don't ask for it or go looking for it, but if you found it important enough to put it on your resume, I'll look at it. If you link your GitHub, I'll poke around your repos. If you link your blog, I'll read a few posts.
It's just another means to an end that isn't much harder than what you could do before. I'm on mojave and ios 13 and I do the same by going to system preferences and hitting the checkboxes in my work account section.

There are three examples in the article: removing /usr (!!), running "hdfs dfs -rm /data" and "terraform destroy". Even with basic knowledge, these are clearly destructive operations - and to top it all, being run in Production. What strikes me as odd is that in all the cases, there is no change control. And by that I don't necessarily mean a full-on ServiceNow-type change process; I mean there was no "review". Even if you are a small firm, it is not difficult to ensure that you ask atleast one colleague to review any destructive step in Production prior to executing. Ignoring to do so is inviting disaster.
Back in 2014, my first tech job, I wrote a clean-up script to delete HDFS artifacts listed in some text file. One day I modified the list and left a blank line at the end. :)

We had nightly back-ups though.
I could send it to you personally, but that 100% doxx's myself, something I'm not particularly trying to do.

The article itself doesn't mention the speed anywhere - though this is my first time actually reading it. The reason I'm otherwise aware of the speed is because a family member is on the city council and also the head of our emergency department.

The officer driving died (at the aforementioned emergency room), first time I'm seeing of that. I was aware he was badly injured, but didn't think it was death. The front of the SUV looks just about like what you'd presume 100mph+ does.

> A cop going 120mph in response do a domestic incident doesn’t sound normal.

This is part of the point I'm trying to make. It's a common feature amongst small towns, especially in the MidWest, of cops being complete and utter menaces to society. He hit two other cars as well, fortunately no passengers were injured. None of which had to happen, all of which happened because of a cop wanting to go hero mode and break laws for a measly domestic call he wasn't even needed at. Responding to shots fired they say, not telling him it was his own men's shots...

Hilariously, not a singular article of many states anything about the fact it was entirely his fault. Box truck he slammed into was crossing the intersection with a green light, unaware of the cop barreling down the street without even turning his sirens on until he'd nearly hit him. Small town reporting for you I guess. Incident "still under investigation" by the highway patrol...
The GDPR contains language that makes its provisions relative to the current techical state of the art. A bank can clearly not be expected to store all the 2^40 bytes of a person's name :)
Again, the Xeon is not the same CPU, is faster than the 11980HK, and has a lower TDP. What is it that you are not understanding here? Let me explain: the same CPU would have the same metrics. These two have different metrics. So they are not the same, because they are different. Does ya got it now?

Native Notion does ok but is still far from ideal
Reading this strongly reminds me of the book The Fountainhead, where those who refuse to follow the same playbooks as the majority, are the ones who not only are responsible for helping to drive their respective industries forward, but are persecuted for it.

I think it’s fair to call John Carmack a visionary who has moved his industry forward multiple times. I think while some investors and business owners did not benefit (as much as they could have) from his work, the rest of the gaming world absolutely did.
Every user made a choice to use at some point. We need to find ways to make that choice more costly. Punish users. Make examples out of people. Give them long prison sentences. Have the Ad Council run anti-drug ads. If users are in prison, they can’t buy street drugs.

If you destroy demand, you’ll crush the cartel’s bottom line. But that would end the nice gig the DEA, cartels, and drug addicted in this country have going on, so I’m not holding my breath.

That said, there's a huge difference between "the brain may be too hard for us" and "the brain may not even be physical." That's about on the same scale as the difference between "the pyramids were built with advanced mechanical tools" and "the pyramids were built by aliens."

What would be a "reasonable" daily rental rate/class for the Teslas?
If you use a no-code front-end builder (like Bubble.io), I guess you could use any UI test framework to test your app. It is not the same as unit testing, but it is more global and in the end, UI tests are quite powerful to detect regressions that matter to the users.

That said, if you think that unit tests are always required, then I think that you are a victim of code complexity. Let me explain. I do believe that unit testing is good to master complexity, which often becomes out of hands with classical approches because the code is complex by itself (new lib versions popping up all the time, breaking refactoring). The thing with low-code is that it lowers that complexity by proposing more declarative approaches, which are more stable and less broken when changing versions (think of a static web page for instance, you don't really need to test it that bad although the browsers versions bump all the time).

I think that it is more important to be able to control complexity in order to avoid testing, rather than having to test "no matter what", like your reaction suggests. Plus, testing implies CI/CD and a lot of automation that are extremely complex to set up and consume a lot of resources.

I wrote a blog post about this stand-point lately https://cincheo.com/2021/10/03/when-low-code-meets-local-fir...

DISCLAIMER: I am currently working on a new low-code platform for frontend development based on the local-first paradigm. (web site: https://www.dlite.io, platform, with examples: https://plaform.dlite.io).
It's nearly there already. The average new car in the U.S. costs $41K, and the Tesla Model 3 is $45K.
It shouldn't matter what permissions an application asks for. It is up to the user to decide to grant the app access to a system, or to a mock system.

The "sandboxing" model of flatpack and the like is completely backwards. I'd even say it's user-hostile.
That's the point, it's not. At least not any more than other drugs. Plenty of people try heroin or opioids and hate it.
This is scandalous. Taxpayers pay 1.33 billion, yet Telstra owns "100 percent of the ordinary equity".

Please someone explain to me how this is not blatant corruption.
Facebook Threatens a TV Series Producer on Potential Defamation
Didn't they grant them access? HTTPS has access control mechanisms in place, if that page wasn't meant to be accessed, that's one thing, but it was literally a public page on their website. Furthermore, if it wasn't data the user was meant to access, why did the website owner transmit it to them? (And not just the Journalist in question, but everyone who had gone to that page while this was there).

Where this page not meant to be public, I'd tend to agree with you, but it was meant to be public and was transmitting this data to use as an identifier. The encoding its in is irrelevant, encodings are not encryption and this journalist did nothing illegal.
If you have been remotely involved in mentoring aspiring engineers, and especially if you did it at the nonprofit level, the data and student feedback out of lambda was looking obviously bad as of 1-2 years ago. If you threw a test rock into a alumni or currently attending code school student forum, bad lambda stories always came up.

What’s so distasteful about this is a lot of the code school community closed ranks around Lambda, refused to acknowledge really absurd student experiences and bad employment rates, and at worst still partnered with it. My guess is this is because admitting a place as polished as Lambda had a problem leads to questions about other schools out there.
When you top it off with the insane ISAs Lambda wanted, that school and its defenders put themselves in an extremely ethically dubious position.
The bear thesis for Tesla has been something like, "Tesla might have an innovative EV-first design, but when the major manufacturers with a century of manufacturing know-how wake up to EVs, they will drown Tesla in vehicles."

I think part of what's driving the increase in Tesla's value is the realization that this thesis was wrong.

Tesla is now beating all the established manufacturers at gross automotive margins, and it's really not close. Toyota is around 18%, Ford and GM around 15%. Tesla is up at 27%.

Part of that might be demand-driven higher prices. But Tesla continues to reduce their cost of goods, and Tesla has emerged as the most innovative manufacturer, which we already see in teardowns of the Model Y, with huge sections cast as one piece, but particularly in the design of Cybertruck, and Gigafactory.

Tesla is far out in the lead on software. They appear to be rapidly improving on manufacturing. Tesla has paid down its debt with stock issuances, the company has $16 billion cash on hand, and the ability to go get a lot more nearly for free.

If the major manufacturers aren't going to catch Tesla with manufacturing prowess, or capital, what are they going to catch them with?
Now I am worried. Do you have a reference please?

This sound like a major design flaw though doesn't it? I would assume that the system would actually check whether this particular product is eligible for that discount instead of accepting it blindly? Why is one potential API call moved further down the chain to 'clearinghouse'? Why is this process 'failing' so late in the chain?
PETA literally sued in federal court to try and get _all animals_ protected under the Thirteenth Amendment. That's the one abolishing slavery, in case you didn't know.

In the no-longer-circulating Statement on Companion Animals, PETA said: "As John Bryant has written in his book Fettered Kingdoms, they [pets] are like slaves, even if well-kept slaves."

John Byrant's book was published by PETA. He writes: "Let us allow the dog to disappear from our brick and concrete jungles--from our
firesides, from the leather nooses and chains by which we enslave it."

PETA's cofounder, Ingrid Newkirk, states:
"Although we have, in theory, abolished human slavery, recognized women's rights, and stopped child labor, we continue to enslave other species who, if we simply pay attention, show quite clearly that they experience parental love, pain, and the desire for freedom, just as we do."

You may agree with such positions, but please don't lie about it. I misrepresent nothing.

And if you think any of this is radical, you haven't even heard what they've had to say about human beings yet.

User Growth: Lessons on How to Scale from Two Mobile Brands – CleverTap

Watts go in, Watts come out. So basically, find a space heater with the TDP of your server, and that’s the upper bound on what you can expect heating-wise.

I know that’s a bummer for people who want to heat their house with their computer, but Thermodynamics is always a bummer, I don’t make the Laws.
Good on you. I think it's important for people to understand their own susceptibilities and react according. Interestingly enough, the boomers are the highest drug using generation by far (1) in the US. I wonder what impact this has on society at large. I would guess not a good one.

Are you sure the translators don't insert code necessary to maintain ordering? I would be shocked if most threaded code works when you throw out the x86 memory model. Managed runtimes like .NET definitely generate code for each target designed to maintain the correct memory model.

OK, I guess any post on this site is dissected a bit too much - looking for insight that was sometimes never even meant to be there. It is usually a good thing, as we expect anything making it to the front page of HN to contain some profound knowledge. Sometimes a popular title referring to an interesting topic can gain a lot of up-votes as well, and then the criticism can be harsh :-)

Pixelmator Pro is good. Prefer it over Affinity Photo. It’s lightweight and powerful with lots of smart ML-assisted features.
Yes, it is the same cpu die with a few enterprise feature flags turned on, it’s no faster, it’s actually slower due to the lower TDP you note.

They aren't charging you for labor, they are charging you just because they can. In most cases where fuel is not returned full, it's probably a business trip where the renter's company is paying and the renter therefore does not take a shit about it.
Can confirm: don’t use IndexedDb in a mobile app made with Capacitor or Cordova. I never had the IndexedDB wiped by the OS, but there are occasional browser bugs that affect IndexedDb.

One time, users could not load their data if their android device had less than 1 GB of free disk space, because Chrome had a bug in calculation the quota for IndexedDb.

SQLite is fast and it gives me peace at night, knowing that user data is safe.

I'm betting spaceX will land on the Moon and then Mars before this space station ever gets launched.

From the article you linked it's going to be between 2025-2030... which by previous history of these companies it's likely going to be 2040+

> This is like a who’s who of companies that spacex have been making look bad recently.

Their own lack of innovation and constant delays are making themselves look bad. (and outright maliciousness on blue origin with moon contracts).

This sounds more like the American model. In Germany for example the SEK was formed after SWAT, in response to a terror attack in Munich. Unless there is some serious crime, where guns are involved, the judge won’t send a special unit. Pictures of guns drawn on unarmed people seem to be mostly coming from the US.
from reading this https://www.justice.gov/usao-dc/capitol-breach-cases evidently they were not - although not sure what threats were made.
Yes absolutely. Jupyter Notebooks are a classic example of success in this space. Many Data Scientists use Jupyter over the browser for day to day work. Including me.

Advantages: Allows you to use server resources than be limited by your laptop compute capabilities. Log in anywhere, means I don't have to carry my laptop around. As long as I have a browser, I get the same environment to work. Mental peace that my work and data are always safe. I can drop my laptop in a swimming pool and yet I will not even lose the last character I typed on that presentation I was making.

Disadvantages: Yeah, I cannot access my system while on an aeroplane. Can't think of anything else honestly, unless you live in a zone where the internet is as bad as on aeroplanes.

All in all, prefer the browser-based virtual machine any day. The advantages outweigh the single disadvantage of the need for a stable internet connection.
For the record, their market cap is also greater than "Australia's Woodside Petroleum, Chevron, Exxon Mobil, Imperial Oil, Royal Dutch Shell, Shell Energy North America, Canadian Natural Resources, ConocoPhillips and French group Total [combined]" [1], so they're also valued kind of crazy compared to energy companies...and that was in January 2021 before the most recent spike. Sure, part of that is faith in renewables. But in any fair comparison their stock price is still a little confusing.

You can, but Celery has pretty tight integration with Django so it's easy to write a Django app that includes a bunch of Celery tasks if you're going that route. Also, it's not entirely straightforward to run a web app written in another language which runs some of its async tasks via Celery. If you know you want access to the data science ecosystem of libraries Django is a solid choice.

You're right, Smalltalk is about "modifying objects that represent classes and methods" rather than editing files.

So versioning means fine-grained "classes and methods" rather than versioning files.

That’s more historical than anything. Especially because the S key is usually not used in WASD: instead of walking backwards, a combination of mouse+A/D is used. If you look around you’ll see some pros use ASD with S replacing W. In MMO PVP where more keys are necessary for abilities, SDF and ESDF are also a thing.
I'd say the most important thing, meaning the one with the biggest influence on what you end up doing, is how you connect your home Mac to the internet.

If my understanding is correct, you want this server to be publicly accessible, i.e. by anyone, not just you or a limited, well-defined set of people. If that's the case, you don't need Tailscale, which can be seen more like a VPN.

If you don't have CG-NAT (meaning your home router gets a public, routable IP) you can probably set up port forwarding to your Mac and some script that would update your DNS entry if your IP isn't static.

If you DO have CG-NAT, or for some other reason you cannot forward any ports, you'll have to use something external to at least route the traffic. I've glossed over your link, so this may not work, but you could look at proxying your traffic with Cloudflare. Look up cloudflared. If that doesn't work, then yes, something like wireguard between your DO VM and your home Mac could work.

All in all, I think this is more or less a classic "home server" setup, so you should be searching for "hosting a server at home" or similar.
