Eventually, AMD's architecture is going to change and the OS will need a shift with it.

Intel just had a major change between gen11 and gen12, so its the most obvious technical reason that warrants an update. But AMD Zen4 (or whatever happens for Zen5) could also need a similar scheduler update... or if not, maybe some other I/O change.

-----------

If your hardware never changes, you can keep using the OS from years and years ago.

But as hardware details change, it only makes sense to update the OS with the hardware. Just as Linux 5.x has all sorts of updates over Linux 4 or Linux 3, so too does Windows need to change to keep up with the pace of hardware changes.

Not in my experience. I think a key thing is that a principal engineer is technical glue. You run around talking people getting insight on what is happening on the front-line, and then you nudge things in directions such that the game wins.

Does this meaning providing tactical insight for the project? yes.

Does this mean questioning priorities and aligning priorities? yes.

Does this mean that making sure the department is sustainable on hiring objectives? yes.

You could say that the role is being a smart technical person that is responsible at the level of "almost stake holder". A key thing here is that a principal engineer should also have significant stock. At a big company, this should be in the seven figures.

I'm with you on this, the additional problem with the meetings is that they are sprinkled throughout the day.

I know if I have a meeting starting in 30 minutes, I am not able to go into the deep thinking required to solve difficult problems.

If I am in a flow state, and the meeting is an 1 hour away, it tends to break that and I look up at the clock once in a while to make sure I don't miss it (which can happen in flow state!)

Yeah, very much so. Once you hit your 30s people are looking for more than hookups. I have cis girlfriends who have a much easier time finding decent guys. Heck I have no trouble finding them, they just don’t stick around after they find out I’m trans. I basically just gave up on men my age and date guys ~10 years younger since they don’t seem to have as much of a hangup about it.

I updated to 11 on my laptop but kept 10 on my main machine. I see zero reason to update my main computer to 11. I was willing to give centered start button a try but the fact that you can't turn off grouping of applications in the taskbar is a deal breaker. If I have two firefox windows open I want to know it and to be able to pick which one I want without having to hover my mouse over the icon for a second while the picture of the windows pops up.

So I installed Explorer patcher to get the old taskbar back https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher

Other than that the only feature of 11 that I have used is the snap zones. And I guess if I want that I can install the power toy it is based on.
> Both Python and Ruby have a VM lock (GIL, have no idea what it's called in Python).

GIL (Global Interpreter Lock) is the Python name. GVL (Global VM Lock) is the Ruby name.

Though with Ractors in Ruby 3 it's not actually global (unless one Ractor is a “globe” and a multiractor program is super global.)

I think the subtext is "a lot of men want to sleep with me only because I am a trans woman," and then are freaked out by the idea of actually dating her, which is an extremely common occurrence for trans women.

I've been using Rails for 12 years, over at least a couple dozen apps. I use RVM to manage my environments, and use Capistrano to deploy. I've hosted on full servers, on shared servers, and on Heroku. With the exception of the classic bugaboo of getting the older execjs compiled in different environments, I have never had the sort of problems you say you're having trying to keep gems sorted. In fact, I would have said that was one of the stacks' greatest strengths, to keep that sorted out for you. I guess my takeaway is that RVM > rbenv, but I REALLY don't intend to start a flamewar about it.

And please don't try to tell us that a real-world Java web application is simpler than, well, anything. ;-)
On every article on HN that touches on women in romantic or sexual contexts, the prevailing comments are so toxic. Like this one. Ew. If HN is the social hub for the tech world, it paints a really ugly picture of what lies in the hearts of its members, and what the prevailing majority agrees with.
> But all those data sources are connected to from the same runtime, right?

Yes, this is an accurate assessment from what I've seen.

> And to run it locally you need access to dev versions of all of them.

In my experience, no. If the runtime never needs to access it because you're only doing development related to datastore A, it shouldn't fall over just because you haven't configured datastore B. Lots of easy ways to either skip this in the runtime or have a mocked interface.

> And when there’s a security vulnerability in your comment system your tape library gets wiped.

This one really depends but I think can be an accurate criticism of many systems. It's most true, I think, when you're at an in-between scale where you're big enough to be a target but haven't yet gotten big enough to afford more dedicated security testing at an application code level.

Many people abuses Redis as pub/sub queue. I wonder how is Redis topology though. Becuase in a native redis-cluster, keys are hashed. So pub/sub still writes to the same instance if the key is same.

And if the Redis is the enterprise edition or the open-source one. For OSS edition, there needs to be a gateway for HTTP API. More often than not, I saw the client implementation being faulty rather than the Redis itself.

Shopify has a huge scale though, probably smaller issues wound up and become problems...

Isn't that how the SNES enhancement chips that allowed for 3D games like Star Fox worked?
This actually feels like a good example of the modularity that i talked about and feature flags. Of course, in some projects, it's not what one would call a new architecture (like in my blog post), but rather just careful usage of feature flags.

> But all those data sources are connected to from the same runtime, right?

Surely you could have multiple instances of your monolithic app:

# Runs internally
app_instance_1_admin_interface:
environment:
FEATURE_ENABLE_ADMIN_INTERFACE=true
# Runs interally
app_instance_2_tape_backup_job:
environment:
FEATURE_ENABLE_TAPE_BACKUP_JOB=true
# Exposed externally through LB
app_instance_3_comment_system:
environment:
FEATURE_ENABLE_COMMENT_SYSTEM=true

If the actual code doesn't violate the 12 Factor App principles, there should be no problems with these runtimes working in parallel: https://12factor.net/ (e.g. storing data in memory vs in something external like Redis, or using the file system for storage vs something like S3)

> And to run it locally you need access to dev versions of all of them.

With the above, that's no longer necessary. Even in the more traditional monolithic profiles without explicit feature flags at work, i still have different run profiles.

Do i want to connect to a live data source and work with some of the test data on the shared dev server? I can probably do that. Do i want to just mock the functionality instead and use some customizable data generation logic for testing? Maybe a local database instance that's running in a container so i don't have to deal with the VPN slowness? Or maybe switch between a local service that i have running locally and another one on the dev server, to see whether they differ in any way?

All of that is easily possible nowadays.

> And when there’s a security vulnerability in your comment system your tape library gets wiped.

Unless the code for the comment system isn't loaded, because the functionality isn't enabled.

This last bit is where i think everything falls apart. Too many frameworks out there are okay with "magic" - taking away control over how your code and its dependencies are initialized, oftentimes doing so dynamically with overcomplicated logic (such as DI in the Spring framework in Java), vs the startup of your application's threads being a matter of a long list of features and their corresponding feature flag/configuration checks in your programming language of choice.

Personally, i feel that in that particular regard, we'd benefit more from a lack of reflection, DSLs, configuration in XML/YAML etc., at least when you're trying to replace writing code in your actual programming language with those, as opposed to using any of them as simple key-value stores for your code to process.

I get what you're saying, but it's worth also mentioning that your full 3d SNES game example is pretty much exactly what games like Star Fox[0] did, back in the early 90's. The Super FX chip is inside the SNES cartridge. From the wikipedia page:

> The Super FX was so much more powerful than the SNES's standard processor that the development team joked that the SNES was just a box to hold the chip.

Really interesting to read about, but there was a whole selection of other chips that various SNES games took advantage of: [1]

I wonder if that's the difference. I ran this on 5950X but didn't know about that when testing with 12.3 but setting it on 13.0 isn't changing my results. According to some searching on this env var it could be because MKL 2020 Update 1 and later don't require this to use the AVX2 kernels but I don't have my 12.3 install anymore to verify if it was using an older version.
The SNES example may be working against you here, since there were lots of commercially-released SNES games that included coprocessors in the cartridge to do heavy lifting the console wasn't otherwise capable of. At least one of those games actually used an ARM processor in the cartridge.
The linked list debate should really be improved. From a practical perspective there are many reasons why one may wish to model a cyclic, linked datastructure.

Simple examples:

You have a social networking site that you are prototyping. You choose to start your data model with a simple Person struct which contains a list of Person called friends.

You have an e-commerce site and choose a data model which has a User struct which contains a Cart reference, and a Cart struct containing a User reference for its owning user.

You have any problem which involves a graph data-structure.

In Rust the best way to work around these issues is to have explicit lookup's by id rather than direct traversable references, or use unsafe. There are no other mechanisms. It's a missing feature that really should be highlighted early in the docs or even as a compiler error such as "cyclic ownership detected in Struct X -> References Y -> References Z in main.rs#128 consider removing the cycle or using Rc, Arena, or unsafe allocations"

As it stands if you create a reference cycle in rust you'll get a ton of compiler errors that force you to learn the rest of the ownership rules just to find out that this is something you can never do.
Perhaps, but scalping in the modern vernacular applies to people buying limited items and then price gouging because of scarcity. And, now that I think about it, "squatting" is also capable of carrying negative connotations when it comes to history in North America.

Honestly - no we (America) are not. A free market would have:

- No (or limited) Federal Reserve

- Disallowed the various regulatory capture (Foxconn's building in WI, Intuit's stronghold on pay taxes, etc. etc.)

- AT&T wouldn't have been broken up

- etc. etc.

This has been my experience as well. I've been happy with nestjs but haven't found an ORM that fully did what I expected. MikroORM seems to lead the way though (I know it isn't the most popular). My main issues with MikroORM could of very well been self inflicted and I ended up writing my own SQL.
I've hired people like this by accident, and let them go as soon as I figured out they weren't going to change. I have not noticed them having trouble finding other jobs -- almost always at much larger companies.

On the other hand, I assume that people typically have 2-4 hours of good thinking in them per day; that it takes time to learn complex systems; that a smoothly running system should not need attention every moment of the day.

Why is there so much talk about sex bots? Every time this problem comes up, people bring up sex bots. This article elides the problem that technology is currently dozens of years away from robots capable of anything even remotely resembling actual sex, if that is even possible at all, by qualifying that they would have to be “amazing” and “realistic”. To me that is still missing the point. People aren’t just starved of sex, they are also starved of intimacy, romance, connection, eroticism, whatever. If your mother dies and I “solve” this by presenting you with an amazingly realistic mom bot, at best you’ll laugh me out of the room and at worst our relationship will be forever soured. Sex bots cannot fill the holes some people apparently think they can. They can replace or complement “ceci n’est pas une sex” aka “porn”. They can help you masturbate. They can’t replace “sex with a person”.

i love rails, but i’d point out that business logic exists all over the place in a rails app, not just in the controllers. that’s because rails has no standard solution for compound requests (those involving many models and/or multiple actions) that go beyond the simple semantics of http verbs (which i totally appreciate for what they are). some might say that’s a design issue to be worked out depending on the situation, but sometimes, you just need to do lots of different stuff in a single request context.

rails doesn’t cope with that issue very well (some suggest a command or strategy pattern, others service objects, etc.), which is one of the only major criticisms i have with rails. node/npm dependency was another big criticism, but they’re fixing that with rails 7. =)

AI had meaning that originated from CS theorists before being usurped and losing all meaning. I think tech and associated marketing (which are great, don't get me wrong, I love money!) are the ones at fault here. It should be more of a "philosophical" question, though I'd prefer instead perhaps it be academic.

I'm not trying to be rude, but your example of what AI should be is narrow and not very grandiose compared the original meaning. I understand you were talking pretty loosely, so I feel like I'm singling you out but this happened to be where I started typing, sorry!

It just reminded of how essentially all conversations about "AI" go. They seem to end up being quite specific, narrow pattern recognition problems at the end of the day. Maybe there's some decision theory on top of it. Maybe if there's enough money /people involved, there's more components, so it's a complicated enough supervised learning problem that it mimics people to a sufficient extent that it looks intelligent enough to make a headline. But it's a copycat, not intelligent. Hey, full circle, Melanie Mitchell! - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copycat_(software)
