PCRE patterns are inherently unmaintainable; they're not (naturally) compositional or testable. They also cause unpleasant surprises due to accidental Turing completeness (indeed that's one of the more common causes of production outages that I've seen). IMO it's past time for newer languages to offer better alternatives, e.g. really good parser combinator support in the standard library.
imagine if the number were -X billion. As I increase X, your estimate should respond. Surely there is an X such that you would notice, even though it is admitted the number varies, right? i.e. even a one-time -100000 billion month would be noticeable in your framework?

From there we show that -100 is not quite as bad, and +100 is better.

I did see him get released, but then got re-arrested, which isn't uncommon for someone who's mental health issues are being untreated. I bumped into him at court and he told me that he'd been playing guitar and touring with Taylor Swift while he was briefly out, and I went along with it because it really cheered him up to have someone listen to his tale.

I suspect there is a good amount of projection happening. They view themselves as old, overpaid, not doing enough work, lacking creativity and ability to engage with the “digital” community. So they assume that is true for everyone under them and took drastic measures to “fix” the problem.

100% True. For 10 years I have been trying to get people interested in my programming language and software platform. 5 years ago I just got bans and couldn't create a topic due to lack of karma and it just never go frontpage r/programming or HN. I'm old school and I thought programmers would be interested in a simple mobile language with a real-time reverse debugger for live development created according to Bret Victor's principles, but it turned out to be in vain. Almost no one understands the concept of Bret Victor and in a year I found only one person like me who was busy :) Since this is programming, then it is difficult to find investments, because no one understands the product (investors are not programmers). I asked various people to donate, but it seems that the letters simply did not reach or were ignored (for example, I asked Amjad from Replit to donate several times, he arranged funny contests). As a result, it was easier for me to sell my time in web3 than to explain something to someone on public platforms about the perfect code, and the society was left without innovation. Later, I started seeing parts of my project as separate startups, here on HN and Reddit. If it were not for the complex technological implementation (I am a developer with 20 years of experience), then everything would have been lost a long time ago. Of course, later I realized all the mistakes, studied the market, marketing, accelerated by different methods.

Conclusion:

The problem of money and innovation is in 95% of startups, especially from developing countries with weak economies and IT startup sector, as I had. It is better for you to do something simple and not very technological or go to places where technology is developed like Silicon Valley or use remote accelerators.

The issues:

- no interest without money & marketing, public will not work for you

- marketing & public is evil

- language barrier

- cultural barrier

- commercial barrier (as old school, I didn't understand why r/programming moderator was banning me by low HQ and when I reported the moderator 'the ban stops tech progress', I got a second ban and can't hire someone to help me figure the issue due karma issue, lost it)

- karma in public areas (I still can't access macrumors when I had it 5 years ago, but after the interface change my account is lost)

- money, money, money again

I just realized, depending on the project, if both sides use that txmppc, any encryption (age, gpg) would work (not with other xmpp client compatible):

sender: echo "m CRYPT:encrypted_message" | txmppc

receiver: txmppc | while read line; do crypt = "${line#*CRYPT:}"; if [ "$line" != "$crypt" ]; then echo "$crypt" | decrypt; else echo "$line"; fi; done

With Redash, their team was aqui-hired by Databricks in June 2020 (https://blog.redash.io/redash-joins-databricks/).

They gave their SaaS subscribers a bunch of notice that it was being wound up, and some Redash Community members have picked up some of the load for hosting those customers.

Development of the main Redash repo though... has an uncertain future. There are people (Community members) improving things, and they seem to be getting shepherded/directly decently well by Jesse (was full time Redash employee).

So, things are ticking along. It might go really well and grow over time, or it might not. Not yet sure. Hopefully it does go well though. :)

This is one of multiple instruments that, according to the author of See How It Flies[1] indicate important readings to the pilot, but don't exist at all in a default airplane.

A couple of other examples are an adjustable indication on the windscreen of where "straight in front of you" is, as well as an angle of attack indicator.

Angle of attack, pitch angle, and yaw commonly don't have their own indicators, as important as they are. Instead, pilots have to infer them by combining readings from multiple other sources.

The "lost bitcoins" figure is misleading, since most of these happened during the early days of Bitcoin when their value was low and mining outputs high. Little care was taken about backing up wallets, many have simply been abandoned. The new users of 2021 did not handle thousands of Bitcoins.

A relevant comparison should rely on surveys realized in recent years, where crypto holdings represent significant monetary value for most participants and where tooling has improved to be slightly safer.

As such, I'm not convinced that your conclusion is right. And if we add "lost gambling on cashgrab investments" to the scam category, I'm fairly sure it is wrong. From experience prowling many crypto developer communities, everyone in the field discusses investments at some point, so as a user you cannot avoid building an understanding of those mechanics as well.

I read an interview with him last week that I found pretty funnny. It said he only does two skating sessions: 5k at world record pace and 10k at world record pace. When he goes for long bike rides he finds a kebab shop that’s really far away and goes to try it. Also he’s probably quitting skating for the 3rd time after the olympics (cause he thinks there are better things to do).

Absolutely my favorite athlete in the Olympics.
> You can't just say it could be bad one day therefore everyone should do <x> now

Who said "everyone" or "one day"? It's bad today, especially for those who assume they are not affected, even though they have never done forensics to test that assumption.

An example: most software incorporates other software as dependencies. As a developer, if a downstream consumer of your software is regulated, your software business could be regulated as a dependency. This also applies to open-source projects. If your software becomes regulated, then the dev/build environment for that software may be regulated. The details are being worked out now, this is not some distant future. https://fossa.com/blog/cybersecurity-executive-order-softwar...

The time will come when more endpoint devices will not be able to connect to sensitive services, because of missing security properties of the endpoint. The definition of sensitive services could be regulated, e.g. CI/CD system. As a software developer, that could mean your dev workstation (including browser configuration) cannot be used to change/publish code without clearing a security bar. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/security/compass/privileged...

> there is more than "threats have increased" that can change what's a reasonable place to be on the security curve.

Yes, there is also "damages have increased", so more stakeholders have an interest in consensus definitions and enforcement of reasonable, in specific contexts.

David's post seems pretty confused.

> Because the rewards for mining new blocks, and the fees for including transactions in blocks, [...] whatever Gini coefficient the systems starts out with will always increase

That doesn't follow at all. If everyone staked their coins and nobody ever bought or sold, the distribution would remain constant over time. In reality, coins do trade, and this causes diffusion. Coin ownership can decentralize over time.

In practice, proof-of-stake is better for distributing ownership than proof-of-work, because the block rewards (new issuance) go to a wider set of participants. Staking can be done by anyone, while mining profitably requires a specialized operation with large upfront capital costs.

--

Finally, be wary of anyone quoting Gini coefficients for blockchains. Gini only makes sense if calculated per person. If you calculate Gini from on-chain address balances, you get numbers that are wildly off. See https://vitalik.ca/general/2021/07/29/gini.html

> Did the GUI tools ever get any better?

The simple answer is no. There were Wx bindings at some point, bindings into Cocoa, but as a strong Perl developer who uses a Mac -- and was once pretty handy with Tk -- and would check back every year or so, nothing ever really seemed to stick or be easy to set up.
Should we be flagging it, then?
On the other hand, maintaining obsolete code is very expensive (both in terms of time required to develop new features without breaking existing code, and also the architectural difficulties when you cannot refactor or clean things up), and you cannot simply tie developers to a chair and compel them to maintain projects in a fixed state forever.

I would think that a prepackaged, heavily sandboxed VM with the appropriate configuration and software could be provided alongside the artefact of interest, much like using DosBox to play old games.

This would be inconvenient, but in cases such as Flash it should not be possible to run the vulnerable software without being forced to acknowledge the inherent security risks (especially if the container interacts with the internet).
It doesn't: it is what we call "grey hat". The article title is presumably referring to my role in this hack, not previous work.
>Your argument boils down to "you may make analogies to Nazi-ism unless I happen to dislike those analogies, in which case it should be illegal".

No, analogies are fine. Relativising the holocaust or denying it is not.

rnd[0] did a good report on this. The people who started the yellow-star-antivax trend are known and public holocaust deniers and nazis. Prominent figures here are also putting on the holocaust and the relocation of sudetendeutschen on the same level of evil.

>The Nazis were horrific partly because they did forced medical experiments on people.

Yes

>Regardless of what our ruling classes try to claim, the mRNA vaccines are in fact experimental and people are being forced to take them. That is a policy straight out of Hitler's playbook.

No. Source: All of medical literature for mRNA. If you're not willing to look for it, most medical scientists agree that mRNA, to all our knowledge, is harmless. It won't stay in your body more than a week anyways before it decays.

>Making that comparison is not trivializing what he did, let alone "denying the Holocaust" - which is a complete non-sequitur. They're doing the opposite of denying the Nazi's actions, they're directly calling attention to them.

They're not. They're saying that getting poked by a needle is as bad as being starved to death before being squished into a small chamber and brutally choked to death by gas. It's not funny. (edit: And if you don't trust mRNA, there is dead/alive vaccines available too)

>I think you should just face the music here: you don't like the yellow stars because they're a direct assertion that a policy you support is evil of the type seen in the past, and that therefore, maybe you are evil. Man up and argue why it's not marching in the same direction despite the overt similarities. Don't try and claim anyone pointing out those similarities are "denying the Holocaust" because that's quite evidently not true.

The truth is that the holocaust-deniers under the anti-vaxxers are already a minority, they're theories are absolute quack and at best they're not contributing to society, at worst they're destroying it. And yes, some of them are denying the holocaust. Others are relativizing it. Both of those things are bad, don't try to strawman my argument that I'm saying otherwise.

Former Wyze dev chiming in. What you’re experiencing is Hanlon’s Razor to the max. Have a seat and listen to the story of life as a developer at Wyze to fully understand the culture of incompetence.

Nearly every software team is fractioned between the legacy original Chinese team and the new-ish in-house Seattle counterpart. One of these teams is highly competent, talented, and composed of seasoned devs that joined a company offering extremely generous FAANG compensation. The other team is, well, the opposite of that. There is a power struggle between the factions. They don’t really work together. Changes to pull requests are often ignored if made by the “other” team. There is a lot of finger pointing and weird tattle-tale blaming from one team when the other team introduces a bug, even a minor one on a pre-pre-alpha build.

Management and product decisions seem completely impulsive, changing week to week. There must be dozens of product managers pinging individual developers everyday
asking for status updates on their pet feature request. Some features get requested then scrapped half-way through development. Other major features like Cam Plus Lite are ham-fisted at the last minute without fleshing all the requirements and use case scenarios. Only later in testing the “beta” do we enjoy late night meetings to handle all the “oh shit we never considered THAT”. The amount of tech debt is staggering. EMs are powerless.

The turnover is insanely high. No one seems to know what’s going on or whose responsible for what. Nearly everyone I met had been with the company less than year. Some internal tool doesn’t work and all the documentation, code comments or git commit messages are in a foreign language? Google translate that shit and pray it makes sense.

I could go on and on. But the important takeaway is there is a lot of general confusion at the product management level, internal communication is poor, and everyone is working a thankless 12-16 hours a day building crappy software for crappy hardware.
Your digital neighborhood is what you make it. I have none of the issues. Maybe because I've chosen where I participate instead of doomscrolling /r/All.
> But are microcontrollers with ethernet common? How cheap are they?

Define "common". However, they are available. I see some right around $4 from ST.

> A MAC needs a lot of pins compared to CAN which will increase footprint.

Normally the pins on the connector are far more critical than the pins on the microcontroller. RMII takes up 9 pins on the microcontroller.

> And to really take full advantage of ethernet, you need a good networking stack and a solid set of utilities and applications on top. So Linux is the way to go in that case. But then you need a big processor with external RAM, eMMC, PMIC, several layer board, and don't forget a couple of Linux weirdos (speaking as one) who can actually develop in that environment. A lot of embedded guys can understand CAN pretty easily; show them gRPC and their heads may explode.

You are WAY too high-level. UDP works just fine for a lot of applications and takes next to nothing in terms of resources. And TCP doesn't require as much resource as you think (remember TCP dates back to the 1980s when memory was scarce). Even straight HTTP isn't too bad.

The biggest problem is HTTPS. That invokes a whole crapload of overhead.
