Non industrial tech. These huge massive excesses of computation arent really relevant, compared to the frontiers of computing being a personally possible revolutionary potentiality. Progress is dispirate & not well proven. But big computing is both cutting edge but increasingly irrelevant & botique, not broadly impactful. We will leave our impactlessness shortly, start to explore & find edges that bring us somewhere good, expand our lands.

There is no magic in small puzzles. There is only truth, begging to be brought to light.
U.S. don't want to look weak and make concessions to Russia. If that persists, it will continue to increase the probability that Putin will act and invade, to prevent Ukraine in NATO once and for all, for moderate/low price of sanctions.

Everybody including Putin knows that NATO is divided on this and won't put its full weight behind Ukraine. When Putin is taking control of Ukraine, U.S. will boost its presence in Eastern Europe substantially but then may want to (and have to) talk to Russians again to establish some predictable environment.

If U.S. and war-hungry European states keep their insane stance, behaving as if Ukraine is somehow already in NATO, the result will be lots of suffering in Eastern Europe. It would be best for U.S and Europe to change strategy and let Russia and Ukraine deal with their problems themselves and maybe help in negotiations. Like Germany is trying to do.

Once I stopped using soap, it took a couple of weeks for my body's oil production and for the microbiome on my skin to stabilize. Since then, I just shower with water and wash my clothes regularly. I do use bronners soap on my clothes when washing them. So I guess soap touches my hands when I do that (I wash clothes manually)

For teeth, I mostly just use my own saliva and brush them very thoroughly and regularly.
This seems like the way it should be. Why should new music connect to newer audiences better than the best of breed from days past?

Of course freshness will always need to be there but there's a lot of back catalog to consume that will be "new to you" and it will only get deeper as time marches on.

Honestly, even that seems trivial? By my reading of https://github.com/pyston/pyston#installing-packages , the only impact is that when you install (compiled) libraries they need to be recompiled, just like if you use Alpine (which is also ABI-incompatible because it uses musl libc), which is a little bit of pain at build/packaging time but doesn't actually break anything (i.e. there are no libraries that you can't use, just libraries with an extra compile step) and doesn't affect runtime behavior at all.

EDIT: I should caveat "doesn't actually break anything" with "although it does require you to install build dependencies because you have to compile the package from source instead of using a prebuilt wheel". I don't think this changes the substance of my comment but best to be precise.

I think something is more complex the more rules it has. For example, if every instance of "is", "am", "are" is turned into "be", English would be less complex because there would be less rules. e.g. "I be happy. You be sad. He be bored". I believe this is how mandarin does it.

I thought this was a really helpful post, as I wasn't previously familiar with the 'pg_advisory_lock', etc. functions.

That said, I'm curious if the example given is just a simplified example, because to me this absolutely seems like a case where I wouldn't use a custom locking solution, but a case where I would use basic DB transaction guarantees to ensure that I didn't insert a row without the balance being sufficient, e.g.:

INSERT INTO ledger (tx_type, credit_holder_id, credit_delta)
SELECT 'use', 'foo', -10
FROM (SELECT sum(credit_delta) as balance
FROM ledger WHERE credit_holder_id = 'foo') foo_balance
WHERE foo_balance.balance > 10;

I'd need to double check the transaction isolation level that you'd need in PG, but generally PG is really good about efficiently supporting repeatable read isolation level.

I will say that my point largely stands, though: the leaf nodes of this particular DAG are places where you will almost inevitably end up if you want to implement robotic farm machinery. Deere averages a couple hundred patents a year, so if you don't step on this specific land mine, another one will get you.
I started out just trying to minimize my upkeep so that I could, as I did before, write software I felt good about writing rather than software I felt bad about writing.

For a while, I thought I could do both, but I realized eventually that I only have so much "programming juice" to work with, and after a day of doing software dev for advertising and investment banks and other such stuff, there was almost none left for me to do my own thing.
Companies hire economists and pay them handsomely. They do no such thing with psychics or astrologers. So the market sees value in economists.
I don’t like tracking things, so a change I made recently was to use larger budget categories. Instead of mortgage, electric, gas, yard, etc. categories it is House as a category and all those things are in there. I used to use the categories as a form of a checklist to make sure bills were paid on time, now with major categories it’s less tracking/paperwork.

The other change was putting as many bills on autopay with a points credit card and just paying the card off every month. If you’re susceptible to carrying a balance then that’s not recommended but it does cut down the number of dates/bills to track.

Having huge budget categories doesn’t let you track how much you spend on lattes, LOL, but if you notice your large category for Living at $1000/month (groceries, dining out, clothes, diapers, etc) is being used faster than $250/week during a month you have a bunch of potential items to cut back on in that category to keep it on goal. With smaller budget categories, I found myself reviewing at end of month and then “trying better” next month and it felt like whack-a-mole.
> CHERI changes this. Every load or store instruction and every instruction fetch must be authorized by an architectural capability. Load and store instructions take a capability as the base instead of an integer address. The capability both identifies an address and grants access to a range of memory (including permissions, such as read, write, or execute).

Wow.

> When malloc or operator new returns a new object, it will subdivide one of these capabilities and provide a pointer that gives access to precisely one object. No mechanism in the system can turn that into a pointer to another object.

Impressive. This is a game-changer, will eliminate a whole class of side -channel attacks.
> Go doesn't assert anything about error handling. Go itself is extremely unopinionated about error handling. If you want to do something with the errors it returns you can, but if for some reason you want to "ignore the bad stuff as you program against the good stuff" it won't try to get in your way.

The compiler will let you do this, but reasonable code review won't.

> Idiomatic Go never just drops errors on the floor and ignores them, but it does involve a lot of just bubbling errors upwards without spending any time thinking about what happens in the error path. It's very easy to just write `v, error := foo() if error != nil { return error }` without considering if everything's actually in a sensible state if you return here or if bubbling the error up is even the correct thing to do. It _is_ the correct thing to do so often that anyone reading the code is also going to just glance over it.

Not true? Keeping error handling in the same frame of reference as happy-path code makes programmers consider the two things equivalently, as peers. `if err != nil { return err }` is _not_ idiomatic Go! At a minimum you annotate the error. And that's often enough to be the right thing to do.

> If a programmer doesn't spend time thinking about error handling, Go does nothing to encourage them to do so.

Simply lifting error-path code into the same visible control flow as happy-path code is by itself a huge win for making programmers think about error handling. If you don't agree, fine. Many many others do.

bullshit. a quick look at oss-fuzz on c++ projects, many of them in modern c++, will show that they are teeming with memory unsafety.

PHP developers differentiate between arrays and associative arrays. Although you can mix int and string keys, I've never seen anyone do so in actual code.

Why print bricks to make something when you can print the thing directly?
The happy path and the sad path are equally important. Shuffling the error path to some second-class zone is the root cause of a huge class of bugs and reliability issues. Error-handling code is equally important to business logic and inter-mixing them is necessary to write reliable software.

There was a bonus track or something on an anime called “Grave of the Firefires.” It’s been forever since I saw it, but it was a discussion about post WWII Japan and how the anime industry came to be - Disney influence, why so many characters have a distinctly Western appearance, etc. It really was fascinating to watch.

PM = Product Management or Project Management?

Regardless: I would advise to look at you actual work during the last two years.

Did you manage a team of different disciplines towards a shared goal? Did you organize and lead meetings/workshops to develop solutions?

Did you interface with (external or internal) stakeholders? Did you need to keep external demands from you team? Did you need to manage expectations and lead stakeholders towards finding shared understandings regarding timelines and trade-offs?

Did you manage product/project/development roadmaps? Did you manage priorities for development? Did you take care of piece flow (tickets) through the system (team)? Did you take care that documentation is being done?

How did/do you handle the people who work within the project/product team especially if they do not report to you directly.

There are good resources regarding the mindset and how to work with people. I would recommend "The year without pants".

A good PM has massive influence on the happiness of the team. A bad PM breaks teams in the worst case. I have experienced how working within a greatly managed project can be a breeze, freedom and enjoyment.

Or how it can suck, when it is lead in a bad way.
I don't find that weird - if I'm going to be drinking a coke (of whatever flavor), caffeine-free Diet Coke is my preference over regular/Zero. It is a different formula, even if it only comes down to the blend of sweeteners. Obviously I don't know the actual formulas, but each has a different blend of sweeteners based on the labels, and now I've added "The Real Thing" to my reading list. Different people prefer different blends, like the other commenters who prefer monkfruit, erythritol or stevia.

Having USD can indeed keep you out of jail for tax evasion in some countries. This is also the case for Bitcoin, in at least one country now. That being said, while it could be considered as a "floor" to their value, I don't think it accounts for much of it. I'm sure both USD and Bitcoin would be fine even if taxes were gone.

One problem is, "you mess up, you fail", is not a sufficiently effective feedback mechanism - at least since the debtors' prisons were closed, but even they were not effective, either. One problem is that, even under this doctrine, the risk to the individual instigator is not commensurate with the totality of the damage done. Another is that the feedback comes too late, and delayed feedback results in instability.

In my experience, the biggest thing programmers do that normal people don't is imagine {all possible scenarios} and then design a system that's tolerant of them.

If you can funnel things into a well-defined state before turning it over to non-programmers (e.g. data warehouse), you get better results.
I don’t feel sorry for any companies that claim they are having a hard time finding people to hire. They need to start hiring people who need training/apprenticing and then train/apprentice them.
