For the async use-case, “native do notation” will be superior in the form of Loom, that will transform virtual thread calls to non-blocking concurrency.

As for others, without proper Monads, I doubt they would have much use.

I'm often curious about the audio approach used in a bunch of 1960s films where multiple people are talking over each other. It's very deliberate, but I don't know the terminology. The Graduate is an example, I think in the party scenes near the beginning. In that example, it seems intended to convey the feeling of being overwhelmed. But there are films and TV where it's less about being overwhelmed and more about an immersive experience, to conjour a bustling environment like being at a busy family meal. I think M * A * S * H did it occasionally in the surgery scenes.

I always find it very noticeable when it I see it. There's something jarring about it, the experience is somehow very different from a real multiparty conversation, possibly because it's impossible (for me) to focus my attention on any one speaker. That may be deliberate, of course, although often these scenes include key information in the overlapping dialogues.

It's a technique I never see in modern film/TV.
Go doesn't have any substantial innovations in the set of language features, or maybe none at all. I believe it is instead the whole of a sober and efficient toolchain that effects tedious but simple to understand and work with code, which gave it such a great appeal.

It's like a modernized C with a good implementation and out-of-the-box no-nonsense tooling, and the tricky bits left out. Nothing really new to see, but there was nothing really like it when it took off. Very utilitarian. Rust, Java, C#, C++ - those are all very 'complex' or 'bloated' in many different ways to an avid Go programmer.

I'm not promoting Go (I personally don't like it), I'm just trying to understand it's appeal and popularity and what is different about it. Quality and completeness of implementation, tooling, etc. by having a big company behind it also helps of lot of course - but it isn't sufficient.
I also think that young people should pay even higher prices on homes.

If it is a sensible investment, people will intall them. I am surprised such a mandate is popular in the US.
This is usually done in helicopters, but it's not straight up and hover but instead a departure over the runway with forward speed. You can use that speed/energy in an emergency like losing an engine.
Not likely in 19 unfortunately. It is still lots of work with many many interactions with the whole of the language.
Saltcorn [1] is worth a look. The back-end is Postgres, so integrations are simple. It seems to work how my mind works, it's fun to use, and I don't feel limited or locked in because the data and model are in Postgres.

I highly doubt that, it speaks completely against my lifelong experience as a cyclists. The vast majority of all people are fair weathered cyclists and bike lanes are mostly empty half of the year.

You get cold, wet and uncomfortable, and have to be very flexible with time. Even if you can "deal with it", it's still very real negative aspects, and why would you put up with that if you don't have to?

My point is that you have to have full capacity public transport anyway so the bike lanes are really redundant, a "nicety" and as such I think they should have little space and low priority, it makes perfect sense.

Why don't we have skateboarding lanes? Running lanes? Horseback riding lanes? It's fun, it's healthy, it's good for the environment! Because it's impractical, slow and inefficient, just like cycling is.

You can then use it as is (no code) or add business logic (low code).
Well the evidence is my lived experience since I was around then, as well as quotes from Steve and Alexis.

At my last workplace, we got into a “camera off” default in my team during the pandemic because one person initially had lots of connection issues with their wi-fi, and it kind of stayed that way even after that was resolved, but I felt meetings probably suffered from this in terms of people not participating (plus it’s nice to see people’s faces!).

My new place doesn’t say anything about cameras but most people seem to go for camera on - but their policy (which was agreed upon by the team and is written down, which is great when you’re a new starter trying to work out the culture) is that they’d rather more people were invited to the meeting than fewer (so people don’t miss out on potentially relevant topics), but if you don’t think it’s relevant you’re under no obligation to attend and if it’s only somewhat relevant, you should feel free to get on with some other work or whatever. This seems to work pretty well in practice as there’s no “shame” to having your camera on and clearly be looking at another screen if the topic isn’t relevant, while still having the benefit of keeping your camera on if you are happy to.
I'm guessing they used FME, it's certainly how I would do it. FME makes it surprisingly easy to turn arbitrary geographic data into Minecraft worlds. They also have an Unreal Engine writer[1] (although I've never used it) so in theory you should be able to output the same data to both Minecraft and UE with the push of a button.

Totally agree it’d be great in those situations, but I just don’t think there are a lot of people who need that. It’s probably a lot of fun to fly.

It’s just stressful to think if something isn’t going right in flight and I want time to think and react.. every minute is 5% of my battery. I also saw in another post that fully loaded the battery life is 12 minutes total.. nearly 10% a minute brand new (which every charge cycle reducing my total energy).

They also said the batteries are swappable, so if I had 3 in a rotation they could all be charging/flying with up to an hour of flight. Sounds like a fun day!
Gemmell made a mistake in assuming the shame and guilt of the people who abused his article. The article is just a tool. We should hold the abusers responsible for their gatekeeping and telling others to get lost.

Same context, but I keep my camera on to help others do the same. I spent the last six months with an org that had a strong remote culture but held meeting on phone conference call. So I've worked with some of my teammates long enough to hear their children but I never saw their face.

It really helps to connect with the person you are talking to when you see them when speaking.

My only exception is when I do large conferences where only the PM is speaking or when I'm doing something else and not listening. In that case cutting my camera is more polite.
I think what op meant is that dependency injection is type safe, in that in case of going through a constructor, they have to indeed type check with the dynamically provided instances.
Agreed. There is no way you can have full autonomy.

Driving data is cultural data, its not some natural phenomenon. Its highly regulated and its more orderly than nature. Drive in the developing world to know how true that is.

Plus driving behavior will adapt with the increase in autonomous cars. I wouldn’t be surprised if people purposely started shunting cars in self drive mode off the road, out of fun or spite.

There is no way full autonomy happens, unless you throw singularity level processing at it.

I studied photography and sculpture, and initially the only thing that made any difference to whether I enjoyed a piece of art was interpretation by someone who's seen a lot of art. There were only two or three people who could do this effectively for me. Eventually, after talking to them a lot and seeing a lot of art, and thinking about it deeply, you start to develop your own tastes, and realise what kinds of things speak to you.

This project seems under the misapprehension that there's some kind of "perennial philosophy" of art that can be uncovered by asking enough people about randomly generated images. For one thing, this is absolutely not what I (and, I would argue, pretty much anyone who's spent time thinking about it) consider to be "art". Also, the experience of art is not just pretty pictures, but all of the past experiences that you bring with you when looking at a piece of art. Even people who like what I would consider to be twee pictures do so because of what they're bringing to the aesthetic experience.

If statistically significant results come out of this, I'd argue that any information it generates is going to be extremely shallow. It's like a kind of statistical fetish.

I can vouch for Odoo and its Builder module. Odoo itself is open source, but there's a paid support model. We implemented an open source version for one of my clients and for business/production/inventory/accounting I'd say it's second to none. The free modules cover maybe 90% of common business cases, and the 10% left can be handled by duplicating one of the free modules and customizing it in Builder. Odoo is actively updated by large team in Belgium if I remember correctly, and their paid support is quite good. Odoo is Python atop Postgres, and uses a simple HTML/CSS/js for the frontend. Quite customizable, and can be a no-code solution if one uses Builder, which covers most use cases.
Every image it generates is one of 8 “pieces”, where each “piece” is an algorithm that has some randomness but a predetermined basic design. [1]

My impression is that the instantiations of each “piece” tend to all look the same and have similar aesthetic value. Personally I like Nested Squares, 45 Degree Paths, and Bezier Curves when it chooses rainbow colors. On the other hand, Overlapping Drops is fundamentally ugly (looks like a 5-year-old using a paint program’s stamp tool) and Patterned Lines is usually ugly (too many lines, too much contrast, no antialiasing, reminds me of the Windows pipes screensaver). But I feel like both the good and bad come mostly from the human who wrote the program, not the random generation itself.

I tried a bit OutSystems and its learning curve is incredibly steep for what they claim to be. It all starts with a specialized Eclipse based environment to install and to learn and only goes downhill from there. I don't know any business user able to use it, and for a regular programmer it's just another language/environment to learn. Not sure why it's a thing.

>Build the Earth project created a new map projection called Modified Airocean, based on the Dymaxion/Airocean projection. This map projection provides an extremely low amount of distortion of both shapes and sizes on land, at the cost of heavily distorting the oceans. Unlike a typical Airocean projection, Modified Airocean is not intended to be unfolded into a 3D object like an icosahedron, and has its continents placed such that it looks somewhat similar to an equirectangular projection

I've travelled all over America and Europe. The difference between attitudes to homeless people and welfare spending is vast. I've heard so many Americans describe homeless people as "bums".

> nor is lack of spending at all.

The small government and lack of a welfare and healthcare system are the principle criticism aimed at the US by Europeans. It's such a shame, as there are many things I admire about America but I wouldn't want to live in such an inequitable country without these now well-established essential components of a civilised society.

Having said that:

> just listen or read with an open mind.

As you wrote so reasonably, I will examine this material afresh, to see if it presents any convincing counter-arguments. The cold hard facts of US tax and government spending etc. will be hard to overcome, but I will be patient.

> this is about solving a problem that is destroying American cities.

This is certainly something we agree on, it is so tragic to see, it feels like another sign of America's downfall - a decline that has consequences for every western nation.

For our part, in the UK we are headed down the American path: slashing public spending, which has led to the closure of many of our homeless hostels, eradicating the welfare safety net so that many people live on the street for lack of housing, etc. The result has been soaring homelessness in our cities on a level I had not seen outside of America until the last decade.
Here is a basic struct that stores two members in C++:

struct foo {
int a;
int b;
};

That's all. The thing you refer to is not a 'basic struct', it's complex standard library component.
This is a good method for memorizing facts about some material that you understand. The asterisk method is about getting a grasp of material that is hard to understand. Your method is typically what is needed in studying subject like (foreign) languages and history, while the asterisk method is for subject where the primary problem is to understand the material, such as mathematics and physics.
I think I would have left too. Go has its advantages to be sure, but if you can write highly expressive functional code in a language like JS, Go is like wading through a swamp.

I think there should always be physical off-switches for microphones: it should be possible to know that the thing is not listening. But smartphones also have other private information on them than what can be captured by its microphone.

I don't think the smartphone is inescapable at all, and I don't think any of the conveniences it offers is worth surrendering one's privacy. But there is a tendency in businesses to ignore the fact that some potential customers do not have smartphones. I wonder if legislation against this might be possible.
If you draw the line and add all efforts up, is it worthy? I mean, it might be great to quickly draw the frontend, but if for the backend you must jump through a bunch of proprietary hoops, can you still feel some advantage to the entire package?
It's not. Why do you have to assign other bad qualities to people you disagree with? Just to make it easier on yourself to disagree?
I'm not even sure if we can call it modular. For example the % operator is defined as remainder rather than modulus if you're dealing with negative numbers. That's why -7 % 3 == -1 in C and -7 % 3 == 2 in Python.
I fully agree with you but here's my take on why this is a phenomenon:

1. People like making money when they shouldn't be; we live under the pretense that the only way to earn money is via your day job. A side-hustle makes things exciting. It's like finding treasure.

2. Pair the above with the rise of social media and the lifestyles people portray on there: success, money, etc.

3. Perhaps there is an actual movement away from "normal" jobs, leading to a mentality shift in which people simply want to be financially independent.
It made sense years ago... before the iOS/Android duopoly we have now.
Maybe like it could work where you get like here karma, but the Karma is more based on your content you submit which needs to be approved and audited, like a forum or peer review. The points allow you to connect with people but only connect with people that have the same value. IE a person with 100 points can connect with a person who has 100-150 but not someone with points above this. Below this you might also have an up and down cap to keep people in smaller community based circles and maybe limit this to like 400 people. It's an idea it's not perfect but maybe it could allow us to be better. Having a limit of 5000 lol how can you even have 5000 friends it's impossible. You can always follow these groups that part anyone can do you just can't interact with them with out being connected, or forming your own sub group which in doing this will spin up your own fan base and acceptance feeling. Again is not perfect

I get the issue if you're still dealing with chroots. I hated this with a passion, too - but using Docker is a real breeze in comparison.

> What if there's no deb package?

A Debian archive docker image behaves just like an ordinary Debian install would - they are fancy chroots. Install the dependencies, run the usual "./configure && make && make install" dance, that's it.

Add a "-v /home:/home" in the invocation.

Agree with you on that one, with one exception... systemd unit files are so much easier to deal with than init.d shellscripts.
(I got lucky and spotted this reply instantly; I promise I wasn't lurking waiting for a reply.)

Don't dynamic DI frameworks like Spring use runtime reflection to invoke such constructors? If a bug existed in Spring causing a value of the wrong type to be provided, I expect it would go undetected until runtime, at which point Java will throw an exception.

My understanding of "type safe" is that the code is statically known not to have such defects. It's likely that we're just getting hung up on definitions.
