I work heavily in this space and can add some more details :)

Tusker actually uses Migra to power its functionality: https://github.com/bikeshedder/tusker#how-does-it-work

Tusker's flow is somewhat similar to sqldef https://github.com/k0kubun/sqldef , although the internal mechanics are quite different. Migra/Tusker executes the SQL in a temporary location, introspects it, and diffs the introspected in-memory representation -- in other words, using the database directly as the canonical parser. In contrast, sqldef parses the SQL itself, builds an in-memory representation based on that, and then does the diff that way.

I'm the author of Skeema https://www.skeema.io which provides a similar declarative workflow for MySQL and MariaDB schema changes. Skeema uses an execute-and-introspect approach similar to Migra/Tusker, although each object is split out into its own .sql file for easier management in version control, with a multi-level directory hierarchy if you have multiple database instances and multiple schemas.

Skeema was conceptually inspired by Facebook's internal database schema change flow, as FB has used declarative schema management submission/review/execution company-wide for over a decade now. Skeema actually predates both Migra and sqldef slightly, although it did not influence them, all were developed separately.

In turn, Prisma Migrate and Vitess/PlanetScale declarative migrations were directly inspired by Skeema's approach, paradigms, and/or even direct use of source code in Vitess's case. (Although they're finally moving to a parser-based approach instead, which I recommended they do over a year ago, as it makes more sense for their use-case -- their whole product inherently requires a thorough SQL parser anyway... and ironically, sqldef is based on the Vitess SQL parser!)

You could take the terrible example we live by here in New Zealand. We pretend it doesn’t get cold, have poorly insulated and rather damp houses and just suffer through it. An inside temperature of 18 in midwinter sounds lovely.
We also lack good wardrobes, but that might just be me.

US troops have never invaded Iran. Maybe you are thinking of the 1980 Iraqi invasion? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraqi_invasion_of_Iran

The 1953 coup in Iran was organized/supported by the CIA, but did not involve US troops. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1953_Iranian_coup_d%27état

During the 1979–1980 US embassy hostage crisis, there was an aborted attempt to rescue American hostages. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran_hostage_crisis

My comment was written with precisely the second law of thermodynamics in mind. If you’re generating energy at a rate greater than you have a use for, to the point that you have a problem, yet also able to harvest it, then you want to radiate it back into space, yes. Neutron beams would be a cool, perhaps fanciful yet potentially practical way of doing that in a concentrated manner.
Not Plasma?

It's also possible for be interesting at one point in their life, and as the world around them changes together with their own mind changes, they fall into the category of not being interesting anymore. Or, similarly to many crazy world leaders, they can become "interesting" in the sense of how evil and crazy they sound when they talk about their ideas.
So if I take the time to watch this am I in for a two hours of generic feel-good "avoid the subject-matter" non-answers?
Or just really ease into it, and get to know how your body responds. And learning what to eat (and how much) when you break your fast is even more important.

For example, the latest studies show that multi-day water fasts are much harder on the female body than the male body, and can sometimes cause their hormone levels to go out of whack, so they don't recommend going longer than 12 hours when you're first starting out.

> The four sides of each building formed a tube with window slots This tube was designed to carry the weight of the building and its contents directly downward to the foundations. The walls acted as vertical beams, wide and tall as the buildings, that bent to the side to absorb wind loads.

https://science.howstuffworks.com/engineering/structural/wor...

> Prior to the construction of the Twin Towers, skyscrapers were designed to support themselves through large internal columns spaced about 30 feet (9 meters) apart, which interrupted the flow of interior space. For this project however, the engineers came up with a different solution -- the exterior walls themselves would support the bulk of the structure, and they would get a boost from one single column of beams in the center.

Make a big hole in the primary support structure and things go badly.

(And before parroting the "jet fuel doesn't melt steel beams" thing as a follow-up, watch this excellent and short video from a blacksmith: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FzF1KySHmUA)
They also have less knowledge and understanding of the key terrain involved. That’s the key here in urban warfare. Understanding the critical choke points, areas of overwatch and lines of sight etc will be something they know intuitively because they’re from there. Russians will have to look at their maps.
I have studied Toki pona for a little while in the past. It's emphasis is on minimalism and context. Especially since the Lexicon is around 130 words. It sounds like things can be ambiguous, but once you get a hang of it communicating is pretty easy.

In my opinion this allows you to learn the grammar and how to speak relatively easily( which is also helped by the fact that there are relatively few grammar Concepts)

Further there is an offshoot of the community called Toki ma, where it's emphasis is on building on the Concepts that are from Toki pona and extending them to be more of an aux lang and to be more fledged out as to be able to discuss complicated Topics.

With all that said, I really would like to see some sort of version of this for other languages. From my limited language learning it seems there's a huge learning curve in the beginning that can somewhat taper off after you get a good handle on a language's grammar. For example knowing definitively three to four hundred words you must know to be able to speak basic Japanese/Spanish/French etc, cuts down on your study requirements.

There are of course arguments against this, but it seems like a cool idea.
Afghanistan is unwinnable by any country unless they are willing to declare total war and wiping out all resistance without any attention to human rights.

I'm not sure I understand. Could you point me to a resource that goes into more detail?
Almost all analogies are bad and distracting, to some extent.

Itoh, I do think it gets across, coarsely, a point about the sentiment scape. Russian people's tolerance of Ukrainian suffering can't be taken for granted. Kievans haven't attacked them, or given Russians much reason to hate them. Hate is a necessary ingredient for that kind of war.
They were, but a lot of Ukrainians have military service experience. It also seems like Russia didn’t learn those lessons, and others. Their armor looks to be stretched thin. In urban fighting having lots of people firing from a lot of places on advancing Russians will make it hard for them to focus air support. Just pinning down small groups of Russian infantry will allow the Ukrainian army to roll them up if they can maintain mobility.

I like Lex but his awe for Putin turns me off big time, Putin is intelligent (to leverage and maintain power), no doubt, but he’s a thug after all, a thug who became one of the world’s richest men by embezzlement pretty much.

It doesn't help as much in a cold snap though, which is peak gas demand. If it's -25C outside, each degree C is only ~2% change in delta T.

I'm all about dialing back the thermostat, but I've also noticed a huge comfort difference between 18C and 19C. Quality of life starts to nosedive for a few percent more saving; it's better to fix up your house.

I'm afraid if Russia lose the war, Putin may not be available.
Are you talking about “overthrowing leaders” who stopped being leaders a decade ago?

Or “overthrowing” Ellen Degeneres?

Or sending GWB to The Hague?

I’m not following.
If you need to coordinate with someone who isn't sitting by a radio, you need to call them (including the local govt, your own civilian personnel, etc.). You might not be issued a radio at all, so a phone is what you have.

Commercial telecommunications are an important part of any military worldwide, when they are available - so you use them until someone actually starts DFing you accurately, and then even after that, it's a risk to be managed and certainly not black & white.

>If the camera firmware is secure, you can't fake this.

that's a big if.

>Photoshop modifies the image => hash of the new image data is signed by your personal private key + signature includes camera hash => if someone steals your image, you can prove that your created the Jpeg based off your raw

I don't get what this part is supposed to solve. Desktop editing software allow arbitrary manipulation of image, and there's basically no hope of some sort of TEE to keep the private key secure. Therefore it's useless for guaranteeing authenticity (ie. the image faithfully represents what was captured), and is really only useful for ensuring that a given publication endorses such image. In other words, it's basically gpg signing an image. That's not done today, but you can already verify whether an image comes from a publication by checking linking directly to their site (eg. if a given image is claimed to be from nytimes, you link to nytimes.com).
Go's GC supposedly never runs longer than 1ms, so no.
I don’t know about writing or research on the subject but I live in a city in western Poland. In some sense you could say we are still “rebuilding” today. Much of the brick extracted from the rubble was from what I know, used as building material in the 50’s and 60’s. Near to where I live, there is a rectangular hill, some 6-7 stories tall and there is a large park on it. It’s pretty huge. It’s made up of all the rubble that was cleared from the area (which was a large neighborhood that was 99% destroyed during Soviet siege/offensive in 1944). Rebuilding cities after wars takes forever.
I definitely heard on a radio report that Germany is giving Ukraine stinger missiles
Russia doesn't have the logistical power to have an occupational force. They need to implement a strawman government and hope that the military falls into place.
How are they in power in Ukraine? It’s like saying that all Germans are communists because of the Red Army Faction.
Very cool! I've actually been looking for something like this recently
What are the chances that a similar situation could develop in Moldova? thinking mostly about Transnistria that would give Russians justification for invasion if your leaders would made Putin sufficiently angry
The Moon is a Harsh Mistress is pretty good. Stranger in a Strange Land is decent. Neither is a juvenile...
To be fair to myself and you, I grew up in rural america around with guns everywhere. Took hunter safety, whole shebang, never really got around to buying myself or using automatic weapons.

I see your point on the American revolution, but please, let's not forget times have changed. the US population were on home ground with rifled barrels, easier to aim and using geurilla tactics against an old british standing line firing system (also their rifles weren't always rifled ;) ).

The chance that a population of civilians with weapons goes to hide in a bunker with or without unarmed people is higher than it is with military troops, and what happens when Russian intel says there are enemy combatants hiding in a bunker vs a bunch of civilians hiding in a bunker...chances go up that they will receive a bunker buster knock and talk more than if there were unarmed people there.

this isn't 1776.
Out of curiosity, what are some other noteworthy projects that were affected by this CVE?
> For instance some of the Ukrainian banks are now shutdown. If you had crypto you could access your wealth.

For instance, the Russians were cut off SWIFT. If the oligarchs had crypto, they could access their wealth and render sanctions ineffective.

Believe it or not the Ukrainians are in a war, and currency is not their biggest problem - that would be the tanks, and the bombs and the planes. Once the war resolves, so will their access to money. On the other hand, systems designed to evade sanctions are making that process longer and more painful - and more likely to resolve in the aggressors favor, as the Russians are better capitalized. The Russian people need to feel the pain to pressure their government to end the conflict.

Some pain is good, and so is our ability to inflict it.
Thats the thing - they’ve passed the mandatory military service, so they know how to follow orders and maintain discipline, but they went home and became doctors/programmers, now that there’s war, they are given arms and asked to remember their training.
How does Putin's war not turn into a protracted insurgency?
At a high level this comment is correct, but SWIFT is not a settlement network. A message on the network does not actually represent the movement of money between accounts.

JP Morgan is the intermediary your bank will communicate with. And I believe JPM does know how to do banking in the US
Meh... some guard will stand up and give him a bullet. Nuclear war will never happen.
> The Germans killed about 20 million Russians in WW2, including about 15 million civilians.

A sizeable fraction of these “Russians” were actually Ukrainians.
If one is to do it, better to tell no one and let a poser take responsibility.
"Kyiv (/kiːv/ KEEV)[10][citation needed] or Kiev (/ˈkiːɛv/ KEE-ev;[11][12] Ukrainian: Київ, romanized: Kyïv, pronounced [ˈkɪjiu̯] ( listen)) is the capital and most populous city of Ukraine..."

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyiv

Both are correct and with 30% of Ukrainians speaking Russian they would pronounce it as Kiev.

This is like nit picking French Swiss saying Genève while German Swiss say Genf. Both are correct.
All very reasonable decisions if you're an MBA, I'm sure.
It’s bogus, the standard rifle of the Russian forces is the AK-74, developed in the 1970s. Their main tank is the T-72 developed in the 70s but continuously developed and upgraded since. Most of their attack helicopters date from the 70s and 80s or later.

That may all sound dated, but bear in mind the M4 rifle used by US troops is based on a 60s design and the Abrams M1 tank is basically a 70s design. The Russian forces have been comprehensively re-equipped and resourced over the last decade and have experience from operations in Chechnya and Syria.
> Another thing was that the vast majority of those transactions, for whatever reason, were fraudulent, where people were repudiating transactions or using illegal sources of funds and things like that.

Seems like it was multiple things and "fraud" is just a catch-all term and Gabe didn't bother to list everything that they considered to be fraud.
with insulated houses like this the heat from humans is a problem when having family over.

The Nordics have crazy high standards for insulation. We've reached the point where increasing the standards no longer makes sense.
If we're reducing room heat to the point that it generally harms productivity, that doesn't seem like a net gain in the system. At that point it seems far more useful to consider things like better insulation and building design standards that it does what the thermostat is set to.

Either that or like you.. I'm going to need a heated desk, keyboard and mouse.
One of the sections in the article is headed "study existing languages", but why not also study languages that shaped programming language history? No mention of the Pascal-family of languages (Pascal, Modula-2, Oberon), no mention of Ada. Even Algol 68 is full of ideas that would reward study.

Also, the language descriptions are too brief to be helpful (Java and C# for being enterprisey, C++ and Rust for pointers and other system constructs)
You might be surprised how little weapons training many actual soldiers get.
Here's the catch: EU countries can confiscate only properties officially registered to the Russian people involved, so there will be a rush by Russian oligarchs to find easy to control figureheads to whom register their most important properties, and many are already owned by figureheads.
Does this require a high level of privacy or security? If not, why not a simple self-hosted forum?
I think that there is a possibility that Russia's current plans in Ukraine either already include, or will extend to, taking over Transnistria.
I'm sure Putin realized his speech would be seen and judged worldwide. I don't think he cares. He probably thinks he can just do whatever he wants and the world will accommodate him.
I feel obligated to point out that a major reversal in Washington's fortunes came when Lafeyette (and a few other European officers such as Steuben) trained American colonists, and they became dramatically more effective. Who knows, maybe there are equivalents of Lafeyette and Steuben among the Ukrainian people today, but if so I wouldn't know about it (or expect to).

Excellent, looks like we can stop importing coal from them as well, a double win.
Ask HN: What are some books to fuel your ambition towards computer science?
I have a young friend (high school senior) that wants to be a computer scientist and I want to gift him a book that will get him more excited about the subject. The book doesn't have to be strictly computer science it could be about hacking or computer engineering etc. Nothing too technical though because he is pretty new to it all despite his interest. What do you suggest?
What are the advantages of Calyx versus GrapheneOS?

A 'secure OS' which comes with a built-in VPN doesn't sit well with me (CIA says, pls send all ur traffic over our 'uber secure' tunnel kthx kek), and it seems Calyx isn't as technically adept as Graphene when it comes to kernel & library level exploit mitigation techniques.

The history of GrapheneOS is quite funny btw, when it was called 'CopperheadOS' the actual dev mic-dropped and deleted the signing keys stating that the business guy was compromised. Remember, the business guy was making people physically send their phones to HQ so the OS image could be 'securely installed'.
Thanks for putting it so well. There are certainly some concepts that haven't been talked about in the public discourse and are true, the most important probably being the Russel-conjugation. And he's always been a bit whacky, but that was his thing, that we should be more tolerant towards whacky people and I still think this is true. But at some point Eric went from whacky to crazy and it kind of breaks my heart.
I've seen a few videos of citizens lining up for weapons, and IMO, the troubling thing is the lack of uniforms. If Russians can't tell the difference between civilians and combatants, everyone becomes a target.
In this case the Ukrainian military should be able to use the cell towers to DF every phone. I don't get why that would be a risk rather than a certainty.
given they know about it already but still sell the vehicles I think a fraud case is in the cards. then a recall will be issued.
