This is already the case here; and still the flame wars get out of control.

One thing to keep in mind; the moderation on HN is absolutely designed to steer the conversation in a direction (one in line with YCs mission / vision). Most political topics that veer from centrist make-nice are not in line with that direction.

YCs moderation is a paid, editorial position. This ain’t Reddit, and to the degree that HN has regular users in the mod loop, it’s usually in a democratized way (flagging / vouching comments, the way up/downvotes work, etc.) The goals are different, and HN absolutely becomes a cesspool on any political topic when it’s left to simmer (lest you think the commenters here are of any higher quality than elsewhere on the Internet — in my experience HN tends to have more user crossover with Reddit than anywhere).
Memcache is a BSD licence.

This is AGPL or commercial.

The biggest difference I could find was not in the capability of it as a drop-in replacement but in the change of licence as any changes you might have to fit your needs now has different terms.

I guess the bet here is predicated on that... are companies running versions of memcached that are much improved and they're not sharing those improvements? Could this be a way to make those improvements public by this replacing memcached over time?

I'm not sure how they could do a commercial licence once they've accepted contributions, if they don't have a CLA granting the right over the contributions. But IANAL, etc.
No, your analogy is wrong. You have a million monkeys with a million typewriters. Vaccination just reproduces the things that look like books.

Just wanted to ask the question. Are they really pivoting to something else? Curious now what it is.
Correct, and we’re missing these bad drivers since the basis of nearly every last traffic stop (yes, I’ve studied the data from several angles) is “speeding”. The further you lower limits, the more who are “speeding”.

I feel like I am at the stage of creating an "MVP for a social movement". i.e. trying to work out if this is something that people want, if this is a topic people care about.

Presumably if I am alone in my passion for the subject then no-one will ever comment/reply/email/express their agreement.

If however lots of people start to agree, to put their hands up and say they feel the same, then I can take a next step which is I'm guessing to do what you say which is to define a call to action - but what would that be, can you suggest?
The cause of the worst, most frequent, and recurring bugs is from having a poorly conceptualized or structured implementation. After a product has been built this way it is very difficult and error-prone to change it into something more suitable.

Now if you imagine a waterfall project that delivers the entire feature-complete v1.0 product, I can imagine that this is much more likely given that real-world volume testing happens after shipping/launching it.

With a product that evolves with its user base, acquiring features as users gain experience to demand it, all the while being used and exercised by the user base, it will also have bugs along the way, but there may be many more opportunities for course corrections that are achievable without a full rewrite.

There's is also every combination in-between and what makes sense depends on the specific subject area and users.

Regardless of which approach one takes, quality/lack-of-bugs depends on making it a priority and sufficient investment. i.e. it is not only/predominantly based on process, it's in the details.
Yes, and it should cost $999/year for the registration fee, funneled into the pocket of some giant virtue signalling multinational corporation, who uses the proceeds to buy media time calling for the excommunication of anyone who refuses to bend a knee and pledge obeisance to Al Gore and the high priests of the Carbon Cult.

This would be like being worried about playing outside and being exposed to germs. Yes, it’s true that every new infection has the possibility of killing you. But, now we have evidence that exposure to diverse mild pathogens actually makes your immune system less dangerous to the self. Otherwise it would be safer to live in a clean room.
We’re making the announcement next week, but yes we’re pivoting away from the course marketplace but will still be doing something in dev education :)

Tell HN: Memcached and Redis Considered Harmful
It's 2021 and we have extremely fast key-value lookups using LevelDB/RocksDB, but we're still using RAM-based caching tools [1] [2] [3]. It's time to consider RAM-based caching harmful, and start caching with SSDs for larger datasets and lower costs. For ex: SSDB [4]

You seem a little confused. A DevOps culture can help to be agile. But then, Sprints are nothing to do with agile.
This is indeed something I've noticed. The discussion about browser engines seems to draw heavily on late-90s folklore while entirely missing the point: browser engines today are extremely easy to work with, in the sense that it's entirely possible to develop something on, say, Safari, and expect it to work flawlessly on Chrome and Firefox, as well.

Back in the days, you had to budget twice the time to make something work in two browsers that it took for one. This is not hyperbole. You'd gain a bit from doing something the second time, but lose just as much trying to make it work in more-or-less the same way.

Then, there are the complaints about Chrome: there is absolutely nothing wrong with the way Google manages Chrome, with the possible exception of what they are doing to adblocking. Their approach is to try to make the browser platform an equal among the walled gardens they fear, primarily iOS and, to a lesser degree these days, Facebook. None of the lessons of Internet Explorer apply, because the problem with IE was that it was using Windows-only extensions such as ActiveX.
Maybe Reddit's r/ChangeMyView. It normally has a decent level of discussion, but you'd have to frame the question in a way to drive discussion.
I don’t care about playing games online against strangers, I should be able to opt out of this crap. No access to multiplayer servers would not be a problem for me.
I identify with this so much! Have you been successful in getting people to understand your approach? Do you break things down with any particular system? I find that I love the challenge of mapping a process, but lose interest in the middle of implementation, and rally when I can see the end.
>I've been on the other side of this as well, where I commented that I flagged a DEI-focused article because, while I thought the topic itself was interesting, it seems comment threads on DEI topics always devolve into uninteresting flame wars, and that I rarely learn something new from these threads.

You reference DEI and other hot-button issues: they are discussed here, usually in light of how they affect people building software / hardware. Those conversations are some of the best here. Those topics will always attract unenlightened and strong opinions because they are constructs of emotion, driven by emotion and forged by intensely emotional experiences. Most people's first experience with DEI come from experiencing discrimination or being accused of it.

This community does a good job of getting the balance right - and I've enjoyed being a part of the discussion.

- Opinions aren't dangerous

- Lobbying can be dangerous

Those two things are orthogonal. Lobbying is not "an opinion". Lobbying is an attempt to influence the actions, policies, or decisions of government officials. An opinion is just what someone thinks about someone. It is possible to lobby your government official to get them to support your position, but that doesn't make them the same thing.
Land Value Tax seems to be the sensible solution, but like sensible solutions to climate change, it'll probably take decades before people stop milking it for political drama.

Maybe if you can popularize that policy somehow you might speed things along. Do any of the smaller or regional political parties already support that?

It’s a like a deja vu, this website. It’s been linked repeatedly, for years, having the same kind of discussion on HN over and over
The Nobel Peace prize has become somewhat of a joke. It's been handed out by politics, with prizes handed to people who have ordered attacks on civilians time and time again.
People are likening this to "political debate, but among smart/humble/etc. people". I think this isn't quite right.

I think what people are looking for is political discussion among people who are generally bright but whose identities are not politically-focused. If you set up an internet forum for talking about politics, you would attract people whose primary interest is politics, and whose identities are wrapped up in politics. These people would be blinded by all sorts of biases and groupthink. The conversation would be largely terrible.

HN, on the other hand, has an audience that is mostly technical/startup-focused, and many of whom are quite bright. They also come from all over the world, though there is a clear US bias. Using these categories as filters, as opposed to "I care a lot about politics" as a filter yields relatively more interesting political conversations, at least for me.

Specifically regarding this point:

> Breaking changes to APIs and tool changes are a big issue in general, so they are best avoided

There seem to be two different camps in the rust world. Any crates that have to do with web (orthogonal to but not distinct from async) or some GUI-related aspects seem to be constantly breaking in major ways between releases, way too often to actually keep up with. Anything else in the rust world, such that someone coming from a traditional C/C++ background would be interacting with, has a much more mature ecosystem around it w/ saner breakage (i.e. only when/where necessary and typically only changing a name or restructuring a type, but not "let's wholly rearchitecture both our own code and the code of anyone using this in the wild" kind of thing).
I think it is hard to have "high quality" conversation because not only is it difficult to determine what counts as high quality but also because it is so easy for a public thread to get derailed by comments that present nuanced issues as simplistic.

I'm using two browsers, one with disabled JS (primary) and vanilla one. When and only WHEN page doesn't load on non-js browser (and if I really, really, reaaaally want that piece of content) then maybe I will use vanilla browser...

Browsing with js disabled is fast, pages load quickly, almost no trackers and there are "old" or "text" versions of sites still available... old.reddit, old.twitter or nitter instances...

Heck, even google has one...

To be honest, I just use dillo browser most of the time. Small, speedy and safer then most...

Edit: typo.
It was an objective assessment and explanation. No need to turn the dialogue to flamewar.

It's really the middle school teacher approach to cheating. It's also fascinating to see the sentiment difference between online gaming and remote education. Not that proctor malware isn't worse, it is, but that the arguments in this thread would have been aggressively downvoted in those other threads.
No one’s saying it’s a fundamental human right, just something a teach should be able to do if he/she teaches in an area that exclusively has multi-million dollar homes.
The anti-cheat code is an integral part of an online game. I can choose not to install and play that game if I don't want the anti-cheat code on my computer. I can't choose not to run iOS on an Apple phone. These are not analogous situations.
HN's format is not the best for discussions, if we want discussions, then it must be moved to forums as you even mentioned.

Sparta wasn't common like any of the contempory cities. Sparta has unique militaristic society. Hence the writer should have furnish proof within Sparta and not use proxies to generalize the same. Canada and Mexico are next to USA. The things happening in USA are hard to be extrapolated from Canada or from Mexico. You can't be reasonable to say American loves maple syrup and have cartel rampant running the drug trades simply because it is common in Canada or Mexico.

We shouldn't push people without aptitude and interest in programming into the field. There is already too much bad code out there.
FWIW, the first explanation I thought of was something like "he replied to people asking for help that he was busy doing some (jigsaw) puzzles and wouldn't answer for now, thus wasting people's time by playing with his puzzles rather than answering". edit: and by puzzle I meant that kind: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jigsaw_puzzle. Puzzle in my mother tongue is the word used for jigsaw puzzles. Other puzzles are called "brain teasers".

Sound to me like "tacit knowledge" is simply a practical skill?

I mean, obviously you can explain many things to someone who can't replicate it "just in time", riding a bike is one of those examples.

Explain math, playing guitar, reading, or whatever perfectly to a person, they still have to practice to be able to do it.

The problem isn't the explanation, it's the difficulty of the skill to learn.

Don't know why we need a new word/phrase for it.
It's relevant insofar as granting a program that level of access in a capability based OS would be the exception, not the norm.

Today's OSes aren't in a position to make such a statement at all as they don't keep such tight control over a program's authority. But in a capability based OS, it would be - so a program that's in a position to monitor all your activity on your computer can be easily called out as such.

In other words, the notifications I mentioned that I'd like to see are only really practical in a capability-style system.
Only for very particular kinds of games. And the meaning of "cheat" isn't even clear, different communities have different standards for what is permitted. Codifying any particular communities standard for video game cheating as the law and forcing all others to abide by it under threat of state violence is abhorrent.

I'll give an example: I play minecraft on a server with a group of a few dozen friends. On this server, some forms of client mods are permitted while others are frowned on. One mod I use, ItemScroller, has the ability to mass craft lots of items at once. This is great for avoiding RSI, try crafting a chest of dispensers without it and you'll have to click thousands of times, instead of holding down a single button for a minute or so. Other minecraft communities might think this is cheating, and they are free to think that and play without it. But why should they have any right to impose their viewpoint on me?
Good use if energy? Not really. While better than mining and wasting the heat, it would be more energy efficient to use heat pumps and more insulation. Just less profitable.

MIT was in a collision and probably should have been disqualified, so not the best example. Look up Boss from CMU.

Moreover, what I said was after the DUC. The results you see at the DUC were the culmination of a little over a year’s worth of work. They were at best prototypes constructed under great pressure in a competition setting. A lot of what you see there was held together by duct tape and 80/20, and the code was not something you’d want to bet your life on.

But things did improve rapidly soon after, as results were disseminated, the community began to understand what worked and what didn’t in designing these systems.
The boards definitely do not concern themselves much with the investment strategy. This is someone else job (usually a pretty small fairly independent office). The board concerns themselves with "should we approve the new dorm/theater/gallery/lab building suggested by the administration".
