Async rust currently isn't well-designed for pushing throughput to its limits, though. You really need a lot of batching and very few uses of atomic ops on your CPU to get to extreme throughputs, and Tokio doesn't generally give you great batching. I have also found that good concurrent data structures for Rust are a lot harder to find than other languages.
Why be passive aggressive? Tip the amount you want. If service was a problem actually share feedback.
Maybe not. I think you’ll find creators and auteurs in other fields like film or video games that feel the same way about their field
Not at all. What's the war? Do animals even have a concept of war? Don't two parties need to know they're at war for it to qualify as war? Humans aren't killing other animals because animals are a threat to their way of life or their values.

Maybe you want to call meat eating a moral crime, and you can make that argument, but you keep pulling in these tangential human-centric concepts like "war" and "genocide" in an attempt to make the normalized meat diet seem as morally perverse as possible, but I think the hyperbole is doing the opposite. If your position is the rational one, you shouldn't come across as irrational.
This is fantastic - this is something other countries can use to work on to create similar regulations with democratic values. It's really interesting to see how China is fighting the western BigTech with such regulations to preserve its cultural and political autonomy. India on the other hand doesn't understand the dangers and wants to not only spy on its citizens (like China) and is considering allowing the government to collect, collate and monetize the personal data of its citizen (like the USA) by selling it to corporates!

This is my first time encountering Cooklang and the concept is really neat, but wow the language syntax is...interesting.

My first thought was how this would be useful for easily including recipe scaling up/down on a website, and it appears that Cooklang has support for that...(or it's still a WIP: https://cooklang.org/docs/roadmap/)
We aren't disagreeing, just seeing the issue from different perspectives; you talk about logistics while I meant psychology.
There was an attempt in the US, with the whole concept of the melting pot. In the interest of maintaining the other cultures though, this has been phased out in favour of the "salad bowl".

Imo, the catch is that by prioritizing ethnic cultures, you then allow them to supersede the national identity. Ethnocentricism is the default thanks to our monkey brains and in the absence of reinforcement, or the presence of discouragement, it'll probably win over other identities.

Some suggestions based on my own experience working on various projects/services/startups over the years…

1. “Avoid 100%”: By this I mean avoid 100% in that balance can be as little as reserving a minimum of 1% to X% of your available time on things unrelated to the startup (self care, family and friends, health and exercise, leisure, etc). I’ve met enough people that go a full 100% and let life pass them by.

2. Time off: Take a weekend, a week, what ever X time you need

3. Self-Care day: Dedicate a day or evening for yourself. I usually use Wednesdays and refer to them as no work Wednesdays. I focus on myself, spending time with people, errands, leisure, etc

4. Focus on other things. Funny enough I was surprised how much inspiration and ideas I got from doing things completely unrelated to my project/startup

5. Change: This is subtle but quite useful, make a change in your core responsibilities to a lateral role. As founders, we are typically generalists and do a lot of different things in the early stages. Sometimes you can become overwhelmed, stressed, just grinding work. If you can, change what you’re doing. Say instead of intense engineering, spend some time or stretch of time focusing on product, connecting with customers, ideation. Just anything other than the previous role.

6. Time and Place: I’ve always been a night person so my best work is at night, but I realized the type of work I do best at night is more creative, research oriented, ideation type work. It’s not hard problem solving, it’s more relaxed, care free, inquisitive, creative work. Understand when and in what setting you perform the best type of work.

Are there people with experience in a wide variety of languages that prefer Go?

I've only used it in passing, but everytime I see examples they're verbose and look clunky.

For example, the chainable methods are nice, but comparing to JS looks more like ES5 than modern code.

Do you find Go preferable to other languages for solo projects?

At least where I’m at–which is a tier or two below FAANG companies to many–you hit 200k at L3 and L4 SWE roles (staff and principal). Usually that’s gonna require 5+ years of experience. Senior SWEs (L2.5) touch 200 for high COL locations. Keep in mind this is base salary and doesn’t include bonuses (10%ish) or RSUs.

The book is great and you'll never look at foreign aide the same way again. I also discussed it with a friend of mine who worked in the State Dept for many years before dying on an assignment and he said the book was entirely true.

The premise is that foreign aide doesn't really aid foreign countries but instead is a handout to US businesses who get contracts to supply infrastructure and services overseas.

Either this, or mount it ungreased. I guess in both cases this bike will start to creak much earlier than a regular one. If you grease it and keep it outside of the seat tube, a lot of dirt will stick to it which then makes its way into the seat tube. When it rains more water then usual getting in the bottom bracket area will be another challenge.

Does anyone know why Axum is so much faster than the basic "spawn a new task to accept the connection and write the response" async webserver? I'm curious what they're doing under the hood. They're both using the Tokio runtime, but Axum is based on Hyper. So I guess it boils down to how Hyper uses Tokio to efficiently accept/serve TCP connections?

EDIT: Actually I'm guessing a lot of it comes down to encoding the HTTP responses, now that I think about it.

I’m sure I’m going to be running the HN gauntlet here, but AS3+Flex was a beautiful time to be coding for me. I was paid to basically knock corporate front-end software out (what would now be certainly termed SPAs, oh, how we reinvented the wheel…) day in and day out when Flash wasn’t a very naughty, bad swear word. We knew how it would run in every browser, it was responsive and it seamlessly integrated with all our backend web services. Easily. I honestly feel that it’s only in the last year or two HTML/JS is now at parity with where we were with this stuff nearly 10 years ago. Yes, it is clearly much better now for all sorts of reasons, I won’t sugar coat it… Flash also sucked badly. Very badly. but…
AS3 with Flex “bindings/proper ties” was a beautiful set up. It just worked. Always. Everywhere.

The only other language I’ve felt a serious affinity with was Objective-C. It’s the only language where I knew when I hit compile/run any errors were on me. Maybe it’s just having spent years in those ecosystems/languages and developing what some might call “mastery”, I never got surprised. I never felt like a master. People above me always knew so much more. I do remember writing a couple of thousand lines of Obj-c over two heavily caffeine fuelled days, hitting run for the first time and it just worked. Years on I still find “gotchas” in JS and CSS that I just never found in those languages. Maybe I thought about code more back then? Constant integration and hot reloads all the time, just make it all feel a bit different. Maybe I’m just set in my ways from spending a day typing out Spectrum machine code from the back of a magazine? Anyway… my favourite language of all time is Objective-c, that’s all I actually wanted to say. Rant over.

If you own a home it's pretty reasonable to own a truck IMO.

You can pay someone to do the work that requires a truck for you. And for most people it's probably cheaper to do that. But if you're interested in doing your own projects then having a truck can be worth it.
They should have made the note look similar to a normal one, but with some kind of tracking enabled. By making it stand out, it defeated the purpose entirely.

Bribes are not solicited for no reason. Officials require bribes in exchange for essential services: Getting your passport renewed, changing a land document, getting a particular license. In a small town where everybody knows everybody but the officials knows the most dangerous gang in the country (the police), it's downright inane to think handing him a note like this is going to put any fear into him. Whatever you were bribing the guy for will now simply not be done.

The citizen who does this morally self-righteous act will also get a nice target painted on his head. And should he choose to report the case, well, he's playing the usual game of dice that is the legal system here.

It would have been infinitely superior to make bribe-reporting a more anonymous process.

At present it appears the Russians are limited to voice communications, for the most part. Meanwhile the local Ukrainians who are resisting them have a distinct advantage in terms of sheer bandwidth. They can share video and pictures of things the Russians do, and how to deal with them to a wide audience for almost no cost.

When the Russians tried disguising their fuel trucks, even though it looked like they did a fairly good job, someone figured out how to spot this, and passed it on, so everyone knew in short order.

It's much bigger than the value of the bike. Theft is probably the main thing holding back bike transport in general.
Unrelated: That's how some production facilities record well-running machine configurations. "To run X product, move the rails to the blue marks. To run Y product, move the rails to the red marks." It works okay if the marks are drawn with some level of care... less well when the marks were clearly made in a rush and without a straight-edge.

I guess if two people were sharing a bike, they could each pick a color and do the same.
You can host Seafile yourself, which has end-to-end encrypted libraries[1] and version control. There are also hosted versions listed in their partners page [2] if you'd rather not manage that yourself. Apps are available for most platforms, I believe.

I don't know how good macOS support for FUSE style filesystems is these days, but you could work around the encryption problem by mounting something like an EncFS file system over your cloud drive (Homebrew seems to have it?). It'll make the files virtually inaccessible to other tools (like the GDrive web UI) but it'll protect your files and should keep away most unnecessary sync operations. I don't know if and if or how it conflicts with the GDrive application, though.

On a personal level, I got lucky. Due to my interest in photography, in early 2015 I developed the habit to leave my phone home and go for a walk only with a camera in my hand. It felt refreshing.

Back when I had to use McAfee on a work PC; I was using WSL 1 for building the projects I was running. Symptom was basically: do a compile, lose most of your RAM until next reboot. Stopping WSL wouldn't reclaim it; nothing showed up in Task Manager, Process Explorer, etc. The RAM was just gone; unusable. Post a bug to WSL, was immediately asked if I had McAfee and if so to disable/uninstall. Problem solved. But, due to insurance reasons, I had to have an AV running, and powers that be decided Defender was sufficient. Never McAfee again. It's been a pile of crap for decades; no signs of it getting better, either.

Design aesthetics change for different reason. The chemical plant I work at, we had a colorful control system but are switching to a duller color one that looks gray scale and colors are reserved for alarms. The theory behind it, color on a grey scale screen will capture attention, but if everything has color, the uniqueness of flashing red for alarms is drowned out and doesn't draw the attention as well. It stands out better.

Not true. There are 0 clicks/keypress necessary viruses out there that rip right through holes in servers without the user doing anything. They're certainly not as common as the "usual" types but no one is immune and you can bet state actors have a ton of those at their disposal as do well funded black hat crime syndicates.
This sounds like a great tool in theory for spreading awareness about bribery but solving systemic corruption won't necessarily be that easy (which is the root of this problem in India). Indian society is used to bribery and at times prefers it. It's a system where the primary source of income earned by people in power is through "under the table deals". The steps to fixing the corruption also have to be systemic which should include better wages for government employees and higher accountability of the funds allocated for government projects. AFAIK accounts, land records etc. still haven't been digitised completely in India. Once this process starts, there should be a noticeable change not just wrt corruption, but also in streamlining of govt. processes.
I would also argue that like the existence of god free will is probably unfalsifiable.
I've had some success with time blocking (which I usually do by Google searching for "30 min timer"). But I'm curious what you do about asynchronous interrupts? e.g. you block out your morning carefully, then 1h into things a guy you called three weeks ago to ask if he would estimate for painting your fence shows up and wants to spend 30min looking at the job asking questions. Now your time blocks are scattered to the wind. I find in my life that interrupts of this nature are quite frequent. Almost every day. (and: no you can't ask the painter dude to schedule a time next week. He'll never show up).
most bikes are definitely >$500 at this point.
Hmm. Implemented on a custom type that wraps []T, so you have to create a List to get the methods, meaning more boilerplate (a common theme in Go); eager, like JavaScript’s Array methods rather than like the iterator methods in Rust or most/all functional programming languages; and since methods can’t have generics (which really surprised me in the Go generics proposal), Map() can only work on the same type (T → T, rather than T → U), and Reduce()’s output type is a generic parameter on the list, so you can only ever reduce to one type (unless you deconstruct and reconstruct the List) which must be specified at instantiation time.

As one who works mostly in Rust and JavaScript and is passingly familiar with Go (I used it for a couple of projects eight and nine years ago), these seem some pretty severe limitations.

Rust’s trait-based iterator system is delightful, so that you can map, filter, reduce, &c. on any iterator, lazily, and even define an extension trait to define your own methods on any iterator, thereafter accessible by just importing that trait.

In the end, I think the current scope of generics and interfaces won’t be enough to produce any feeling other than “shoehorned” for this functional style in Go. It’s just not a style that works well in all types of programming languages.
I feel second-hand embarrassment.
You might want to reread the paragraph.

> CPUs are highly specialized in computational speed and have a broad range of low-level instructions. GPUs are quite the opposite, because they are slower and simpler, but focuses on parallelization (high number of cores), and have a more limited set of instructions.

-------

The only thing I'd change is that I'd say that "CPUs are specialized in computational latency", because speed is an ambiguous word with regards to performance. Latency is more specific and a better description of how CPUs specialize.

GPUs are of course the opposite: GPUs specialize in bandwidth rather than latency.

In a word, the University’s fundamental commitment is to the principle that debate or deliberation may not be suppressed because the ideas put forth are thought by some or even by most members of the University community to be offensive, unwise, immoral, or wrong-headed. It is for the individual members of the University community, not for the University as an institution, to make those judgments for themselves, and to act on those judgments not by seeking to suppress speech, but by openly and vigorously contesting the ideas that they oppose. Indeed, fostering the ability of members of the University community to engage in such debate and deliberation in an effective and responsible manner is an essential part of the University’s educational mission.
