My favorite article of all time about code comments: http://antirez.com/news/124

I regularly recommend it to colleagues who make the bold claim that "No one needs comments. Good source code can and should document itself". The article covers pretty much all the types of comments and rules discussed in the OP and others not mentioned there.
Given that code is for people, I've never found a certain amount of idiomatic boilerplate a problem. The desire to remove it all, or magicify it away (eg: Django) has always made me do a bit of an internal eye roll.
Do you really want the same key to every door?

Rest assured it is not that difficult :). Correct, I've configured several firewall rules on the UniFi web UI, since I have a UniFi router/firewall (in my case a USG). If you'd like some help, feel free to reach out to me on keybase! I'm andrewnicolalde on there.

I would disagree I am personally more productive at home and I love being able to just focus on code without half my brain being distracted by the context of an office. However, I think it's much harder for new employees and weaker engineers because it's difficult to get help/share screen/etc. It's also easy for slackers to slide by which I think just means you need better managers. I also miss the comradery a bit and in-office employees felt like actual friends.

I can't really do more then follow the basic steps. I suggest you go onto Clojure Slack channels.

Are your Clojure tools working, do you understand how deps.edn works?

If you have your clojure tool installed you just put:

:rebl ;; for JDK 11+
{:extra-deps {com.cognitect/rebl {:mvn/version "0.9.242"}
org.openjfx/javafx-fxml {:mvn/version "15-ea+6"}
org.openjfx/javafx-controls {:mvn/version "15-ea+6"}
org.openjfx/javafx-swing {:mvn/version "15-ea+6"}
org.openjfx/javafx-base {:mvn/version "15-ea+6"}
org.openjfx/javafx-web {:mvn/version "15-ea+6"}}
:main-opts ["-m" "cognitect.rebl"]}
;;:rebl-jdk8 ;; for JDK 8
;;{:extra-deps {com.cognitect/rebl {:mvn/version "0.9.242"}}
;; :main-opts ["-m" "cognitect.rebl"]}

Into your '~/.clojure/deps.edn'.

From there I can just add 'rebl' as a profile to my Intellj when you start a REPL it starts automatically.

There are also alternative tools like Portal to do the same things: https://github.com/djblue/portal

You can do whatever you want, but most of us don't try to operate in a system where the only knowledge that can exist is that which is verified by the scientific method. In fact, inherent to the scientific method is an underlying philosophy of science which does not come from science, nor could it without being at best circular reasoning.

Science and the scientific method is basically the best means by which we can understand the physical world, but it doesn't help us determine the nature of truth, ethics, or the nature of science. It works on various assumptions (e.g. physical matter actually exists, it is possible to gain knowledge about physical matter, there is such a thing as time, logic is a valid aapproach to determining truth) that it cannot validate.
I use a mail.com email. I can’t count the number of times I carefully spelled my email on the phone “M-A-I-L”.com only for them to still try to email me (unsuccessfully) at gmail.com.

I mean I get it but it’s not good for the internet for people to equate all email with gmail.
Perhaps there should be a system that lets
[1] ordinary people record that they notified a company that said company had been hacked together with timestamped evidence of said notification.
[2] people/organizations who sue/regulate said companies wrt said hackage have access to said timestamped evidence.

I don't know how to monetize said system but it would produce both social and economic value.
As much as I love open source... I tried using KiCAD to design a PCB and have it assembled, but ultimately switched to EasyEDA – not because their app is better (it really isn't), but because of their smooth integrations.

EasyEDA is connected to a huge library of components (LCSC.com) with footprints and 3D shapes and everything, and built-in integration with their manufacturing service (JLCPCB.com) which uses those same LCSC components.

I'm sure you can design your PCB with KiCAD and have the result manufactured and assembled with JLCPCB, but having looked at the tutorials to make that happen, it's not a smooth process at all. I know little about these apps to suggest a solution, but making that easier / smoother / more obvious would go a long way to help hobbyists like me.

Now with KiCAD 6 there is a new plugin https://github.com/Bouni/kicad-jlcpcb-tools but I haven't used it yet. Eventually when it matures it will probably save a lot of annoyance.
Well that's just because you're presenting it completely incorrectly.

It's their system that is misclassifying their email, not you being on a "hipster" email system, whatever that means. At no point is it your system's fault so don't even begin to start phrasing it as such.

Yep I don’t think people understand that what might be considered a “housekeeper car” in the US can be a luxury around the world even in relatively developed places like Europe and parts of Asia…

What costs $30K in the US can easily cost double as many countries levy high taxes on imported vehicles and that while $30K in the US puts you near the bottom it’s upper middle class salary in many places around the world still.

The average gross wages across many EU members are still below what a new Camry costs…

Looking at hey.car a 2019 Camry Executive with 33K km on it goes for €30K in Germany… The Camry isn’t available in Greece but the Prius Plug-in is and it starts at €40K.

Considering that the average yearly gross income in Greece in 2020 was just under €17K even owning a new Yaris might make you middle class…
Related to your second example, I’ve heard a case of a job contract, pre-singed by the management, requiring the employee to take every effort to harm the company and its interests at its expense.

I’m not sure if it was the same company, but the person with this anecdote also told me about an EULA that was copied verbatim from an unrelated product by a different business, including the name of both.
JetBrains' attitude to this has been horrendous.

Try running their products on a more recent JVM. They are actually usable and don't leave you feeling like you've been thinking in molasses. Ironic for a company called "jet" brains.

They (JetBrains) have been actively fucking a portion of their (one would think, technically savvy) customers by not giving them the most responsive system they can to run, then acting all paternalistic and gaslighty by saying "oh we don't recommend you use anything other than the one we ship." [1] when people complain.

Listen, JetBrains: I have wasted enough time (while my thoughts race ahead trying to work on my projects) sat on my phatass 64Gb NVMe-equipped Xeon, nvidia (native driver) Debian workstation waiting for pycharm et al to mooch along like at a stately pace redrawing the screen like it's a 1994 486 with an HDD. In the end my thoughts stopped racing and I began to think, yeah, well, I just gotta endure it... and then asking myself if I'm alone in this particular slow-motion hell-hole or is the world really like this?!

Once I had got to the bottom of it (notes here https://iam.georgecox.com/2021/11/24/making-jetbrains-ides-r...) I _instantly_ began to regain the feeling of fluidity of thought in my work. It was the biggest single productivity gain I've made in the past year, and I have had zero stability problems. Some debugging features are not available, but I haven't missed them.

At this point JetBrains would do well to take a leaf out of Apple's playbook from 2009 when they shipped the Snow Leopard release (Yes I am one of those that thinks that Snow Leopard was the best release of Mac OS X...) which concentrated solely on quality and speed, and no new features. [2]

Thank you for your attention. Merry Christmas ;-)

[1] a fact which gets parroted around various fora without any understanding of the problem because "it works on their computer" It seems that much of the improvements are for the benefit of MacOS X users, while the policy of sticking with a version 11 JDK is to the detriment of users on other platforms.

[2] quality and speed are features, too!
Let's see the escrow first. Seriously though, VAERS is not meant to be used in this way.

Let me try to describe how I understand the mechanism, I'm sure there are people on HN that would be more than happy to correct me if anything is out of whack:

- VAERS allows for the reporting of suspected side effects

- this information is then made available again to ensure transparency

- the suspicion of a side effect is not the same as an actual side effect

- an example: you get vaccinated. The next day you die of a heart attack. An entry into VAERS is made. There is now a job lined up to figure out of you actually died of a heart attack due to your vaccination or if you were going to have that heart attack anyway, in so far as this is possible.

- if it is determined that you were at substantially elevated risk of a heart attack then it is likely that there will be no further action

- If a strong link is found between the vaccination and the heart attack the case is flagged for a much more thorough review. Possibly an autopsy will be ordered or any number of other investigations to get to the bottom of it, assuming that the case is out of the ordinary enough

- finally a determination is made: either there is a link, or there isn't, and if there is then the various risk factors are adjusted.

- If a similar link is established in other cases reported through VAERS or even through similar mechanisms in other countries then this can result in a warning, a change in administration (dose, frequency, certain groups within the population) or in an extreme case the vaccine can be taken off the market altogether if the risk to the population is deemed to be too high to continue the vaccinations. This translates into: the net effect of continued administration of this vaccine is worse than the alternatives (or possibly even worse than the disease)

Within that context the debate is pointless: VAERS is not intended to settle arguments, it is intended to gather possibly useful data.
Ah right I never thought about that - it's about their ability to recover from a third party.

I think the fact that the primary topics here are niche and therefore self selecting plays a big role - vs. open platforms (Reddit) that are not only much larger but low effort discovery wise. For me car forums still have that sense of community that is here as well, albeit a completely different topic and a vestige of the 00s design-wise.
I recently learned KiCad and did some basic boards with it. It was a breeze; didn't run into any crashes, bugs, or major difficulties. I learned Eagle a few years ago, and from my vague memory I remember Eagle being a bit less obvious to use. KiCad felt straightforward in every way except maybe drawing the board cuts.

(I did run into one paper cut. The PCB DRC didn't flag unconnected nets; there's a second button next to Run DRC that checks for unconnected nets. :/ Cost me an hour wondering why my 5V rail wasn't working... )

Was also my first time using one of those cheap, small-run assembly houses. Absolutely incredible. My project was a tweak of an existing product (an RGB LED driver), and I was able to get my boards made and assembled for less than the retail product, even at a volume of 5 and with nicer parts. Crazy.

For anyone looking to learn KiCad, I used this video tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7-8nUU6e3E
I am with you, not against you. Turbans are fine by me. Of course banning them is religious persecution (there is an interesting intersection with motor cycle helmet laws) I do not want to wear one (but I have been known to wear a headscarf) There is no justification for fashion law.

The niqāb is problematic. I find it difficult to talk with some one when I cannot see their face. (Then there was Covid....). I am not sure if that is a personal quirk or a basis for a justifiable fashion law!

And of course a hijab is a headscarf. Not just a head scarf, like a turban is a hat, not just a hat. Why would we want to ban either?

Not from scratch if I can help it. Incremental compilation is fantastic.

As with complexity, there is necessary and accidental (or lazy) power consumption. I stick to tools that are lighter on power when I am able to.

Running unit / integration tests is probably my biggest drain right now, and unfortunately (to collect coverage and ensure no unintended consequences) I end up running the entire suite probably more than is ideal.

> In my experience living in a poor country, most of the issues brought up against globalized supply chains are either made up or sensationalized by people in developed countries who lack perspective.

Agreed. It's also being heavily used to put a thin humanitarian sheen on what actually boils down to racism/xenophobia - not in all cases of course, but to a significant extent.

> I could go on and on... bottom line is, globalized supply chains aren't broken and don't need fixing

I wouldn't go that far, I'd say instead that they're not particularly more broken/unethical than pretty much anything else in the business world, but are easier for media to point fingers at and sensationalize without getting into much trouble from businesses.
Another factor (though I'm not sure how large that factor is) is that a chunk of the susceptible population isn't around any more.

I love the visual style you achieved - really awesome work. I hope one day you or someone else can pick up the code and make something from it.
> That's a weak argument and should almost never be heeded

Well that's an incredibly strong opinion with almost nothing to back it up.

Maybe it all goes boom tomorrow on launch or the deployment is ultimately completely FUBAR'd and you can feel satisfied with yourself, but I don't buy that your principle is what we should always follow.

Hopefully we start getting data from JWST in a few months and then I invite the scientific community to figure out how to spamcraft optical and IR instruments into LEO and achieve VLBI with them in the future, but we won't have to keep holding our breath for the technical breakthroughs there.

And even as a jobs program and Keynesian stimulus the JWST beats digging holes and filling them up again, even if it all goes boom. Better than building yet another weapons program as well. And the Senate just tacked on an extra $23B to the 2022 Defense Appropriations Act for one year of spending. The $10B that JWST cost over 25 years of the program doesn't really matter at all.
I did it in the early 2000s with a domain I picked up just for that purpose, which I'm almost positive was "myspamstopper.com", but I let the registration lapse and it was snapped up. It's amazing what was still available back then to easily register.

That's why showdead is great! (The checkbox in your profile to unhide flagged and other 'killed' posts.) Not clear on if it unhides IP banned posters though. And I would like to try a forum that let you toggle it by category (IIUC Slashdot has post categories, though it peaked before my time and I don't know if they're used for that).

I was introduced to this and other calendar quirks by Professor Edward Reingold when taking introduction to CS at UIUC. One of our "machine problems" (AKA programming assignments) was to write a date converter that could convert between Gregorian, Julian, and the French Revolutionary calendars.

Dates from 1752 were in the test set.

The French Revolutionary Calendar was interesting. Ten days in the week, 3 weeks per month, with a extra "bonus" month at the end of the year with 5 (or 6) days. One reason it didn't last is that despite the change in the week length, workers only got 2 days off per week.
7% should considered unacceptable.

It is great for those with hard assets, it is TERRIBLE for the working poor.

Funny how many of the same people that claim to want to help the poor (democrats) have no problem with high inflation

Inflation is great for people in massive debt, or hold assets, and the rich

Inflation is terrible for savers, responsible people living with in their means, poor that pay cash for everything, etc etc.
Huh, it's the other way around for me. Just about every nontrivial Python project I write requires at least one third-party library, and one much more complicated than attrs at that, that I may as well use attrs too. All the complexity of having dependencies - both distributing them / setting up a virtualenv / etc., and whatever scrutiny I wish to do on dependencies - have a pretty big constant term from doing them at all; doing them for one more dependency (and one that doesn't change all that often) is only a bit more work.

Granted, I'm not reviewing my third-party dependencies line by line when I upgrade them. But also I'm more afraid of the security risks of large amounts of in-house code that aren't exposed to public scrutiny, and so a policy that dissuaded the use of even high-quality and well-regarded third-party dependencies seems like it would do more harm than good.

Besides that, it helps that I happen to have met the maintainer of attrs at PyCon (and attrs has only one uploader in PyPI), and therefore I'm less concerned about supply-chain attacks against it, whether of the malicious-maintainer variety or the maintaner-got-scammed-or-hacked variety, than, again, most of my other dependencies whose maintainers I've never heard of. I'm not sure this scales particularly well, but I do feel like there's still something in the open source community being a community.
The mutation rate and the number of infected people is what is driving this, as long as we have this many people infected at the same time mutations will be hitting us to the tune of a new one every four to five months or so.

I don't think this is quite right. The risk from COVID is in addition to the risk from influenza, and much of the mitigation affects both. Changes like common mask wearing may not have been considered 'worth it' for only lessening mortality and the economic costs of influenza, but the economic benefits alone of reduced productivity due to influenza and COVID combined may mean it is the obvious choice now for governments and businesses to push mask wearing everywhere they can. Similar for vaccination when your yearly flu jab becomes a yearly flu + COVID jab.
Even if you fully remove the law, the single-lenders ability for extortion is limited by the fact that they are a known person who can likewise have violence directed back at them.

When learning languages I used to focus on the grammar because it was most interesting to me (and words you can always look up in a dictionary). But for the most recent language I’ve attempted I’ve focused on just learning a ton of vocabulary and it’s made a huge and positive difference. Simply knowing a lot of words means you can read newspapers and twitter or whatever and allows you more chances to see the grammar in action.
Sounds good, we will have to put you in charge of everything. Besides Landau poles not being science, maybe you can also arrange that set theory isn't mathematics, that free verse isn't poetry, and that hip-hop isn't music. Let those cosmologists with no chance of actually observing the big bang go into hiding! We will show them a thing or two. Heh.
