> to obtain the "orders", the /users/:id/orders endpoint should be called

Ok, but an order has an array of order lines, and each order line has sub-arrays as well, like details of the packages it was shipped in etc.

So that might be 5-10 calls to get an order line, and for a few thousand lines we're looking at several tens of thousand calls to get a full order.

Secondly, you then make some changes and want to replace the order with the data you got. You then have to produce a delta and upload that. And those thousands of calls better be done in a transaction of sorts, otherwise you'll have big issues.

Seems easier to me to just be able to GET or PUT an entire order with all the details in one go.

moderna has invented a vaccine platform on mrna. they started with covid and have proven they can target diseases using this platform. so keeping the delivery mechanism the same, they are targeting many other diseases.

but was it successful? the covid vaccine loses effectiveness after 8-12 weeks. i don’t know if this is specific to sars-cov-2 and it’s mutations or the mrna delivery platform.
it depends on how you use it. for a portable desktop for browsing, messaging and writing i find this entirely adequate. with an external monitor it is also good enough to function as a media station

Many data models don't have obvious singular keys. The critical search relationships cannot be reduced to an order relationship on a single column a priori. Much of the most interesting research in storage models is around increasingly efficient ways of indexing complex information theoretic features across multiple columns in a single structure, with an underlying storage implementation to match.

At some level, every database contains a key-value store. For performance reasons, the hardware always has to be treated this way. Databases work at the level of blocks/pages, but those abstractions are usually hidden from users with a lot of clever logic in the middle that is more opinionated to enable optimization. That doesn't change.

An interesting and important property of search data structures is that, at the limit, a single index that can optimally satisfy all possible queries is equivalent to general AI. It is also completely intractable. Fortunately real-world queries tend to be much more limited in nature. A corollary is that the distinction between indexing, storage, and scheduling in databases is a fiction -- useful for making some things simple but not necessary in any database. In essence, the practice of treating indexing, storage, and scheduling as discrete functions in a database is the opposite extreme. There are a vast number of possible implementations between these two extremes with better properties than either in practical real-world databases.

As a general design principle for scalability and performance reasons, you want to organize your data model around a single indexing mechanic. Consequently, it is critical to maximize the expressiveness and efficiency of any particular indexing mechanic. At the limit, with a good algorithm, it is equivalent to having an index for each column, with the ability to efficiently search more features of the data and without the overhead of actually having an index for each column.

I think we are entering a new golden age of database technology where the boundaries between elements we treated as discrete are much fuzzier.
Nope. See https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2200797

The conclusion said it is less effective.

The messenger RNA (mRNA) boosters were highly effective against symptomatic delta infection, but they were less effective against symptomatic omicron infection. However, with both variants, mRNA boosters led to strong protection against Covid-19–related hospitalization and death. (Funded by Weill Cornell Medicine–Qatar and others.)

Don't get me wrong, I believe in the vaccine, but I think we are still far away from one vaccine that kill all the the mutations.
From what I hear, making "intrusive linked lists which lend out &mut" sound is an unsolved problem: https://gist.github.com/Darksonn/1567538f56af1a8038ecc3c664a...
Can confirm. I once lost my three week Japan Rail Pass (green car) somewhere in Tokyo station which has > 3 million passengers per day and is just huge. This was my first day in Japan with rides planned through the whole country. These rides would have cost a fortune to replace as you cannot buy a JRP in Japan. It took less then an hour to get it back. I assume nowhere else in the world this would have played out the same way. I was very thankful that day to say the least.

It's fascinating. She seems more open than maybe most...the backlash effect can really screw up these efforts.

Also I have to admit my own initial gut reaction of "this fits the definition of spam & spam is just trashy" was hard to ignore, but this is--arguably--a better effort in a lot of ways than sending weapons to the defenders. Especially looking at such situations from a humanitarian lens, it's hard to fault something like this as a creative alternative.

Interesting article, thanks for posting.

>Honor" and "a sense of responsibility" explains very little and good, widely distributed Schelling points (koban and, to a lesser extent, commercial/transit centers information/etc desks)

I feel like you're bending over backwards to dismiss that this really does come down to culture. At the very least you need a sizable population willing to forgo the easy, untracable reward of free cash/property. Especially when you go on to state that in almost all cases the reward is waived, only further suggesting a culture where honor is more important than spending money.

As someone who has lived in Asia, this different culture exists in some other countries (like korea, possibly to a lesser extent) but is rather absent from China, no doubt influenced by the psychological horrors of china's particularly brutal bout with full marxism.
My recommendation: Use PUT everywhere instead of POST. PUT has to be idempotent, so if the request fails, the client can simply post it again. This solves issue like worrying about creating a second copy of an item if a POST timed out.

Using PUT to create elements means that the client has to supply the ID, but this is easily solved by using GUIDs as IDs. Most languages have a package for create a unique GUIDs.
That sounds plausible and super interesting. I was thinking about this tonight because the explanation that “it’s cold” seems incomplete to me. It’s certainly quite cold at the Titanic wreck and that thing seems to be mostly devoured by the sea at this point.

The programs should be OS agnostic as I assume that the majority of the functionality is based on the go standard library. Haven't tested this, but I've written heaps of go code for Windows and Linux and have rarely had to add OS specific info. There are a few small differences, but it's easy to abstract them away, which I assume has been done in this case.

As a cultural layperson but occasional items-losing tourist in this region I was confused reading this as my experience was quite the opposite. But on recollection every lost-items interaction I've had as a foreign tourist in Japan was facilitated by a railway or a hotel in a major city, and likely this skewed my experience.
We’re doing exactly the same as we’re doing with traditional vaccines, but more efficiently. There’s a lot about your comment that misses the subtleties and mechanics of how the immune system works and repeats fears that, quite frankly, stem from ideologically driven falsehoods.
I’ve been hearing this on HN and similar forums for what feels like years now: “Electron/web-based GUIs are only popular because it’s easy to find devs in those ecosystems”

Have we considered asking why it’s so much easier to find React devs? Why such a huge, huge majority of UI development today takes place on the web?

I’m a front end web developer. I’m very biased.

But I’m a little tired of the narrative that “the right way to make a UI is to build it natively, but everyone wants to take the easy way out.”

Perhaps the explanation is that native GUI frameworks simply haven’t kept up in terms of developer experience. And if you spend some time exploring them, I think that becomes very obvious very quickly.
Is it? Dealing with an unending 24x7 stream of public misbehavior and abuse has to be stressful and draining. For example, we have seen some number of moderators of Facebook and other major sites report PTSD.
A couple of reasons

1. It's still pretty effective against COVID

2. Clinical trials showed variant specific versions weren't that much more effective

3. Protecting against the granddaddy strain has a much broader effect than protecting against a new strain.

They're a mafia and a bad one at that. Russia will become a Chinese satellite just like Kazahstan and Mongolia. It was probably going to anyway, but Putin just made sure of that when he attacked Ukraine. At least China had a mechanism for continuation of power, which Russia doesn't appear to have. What happens if Putin dies or is toppled? They'll put the next NATO paranoid FSB boss in charge? Compared to the Gorbachev era USSR they look like a bunch of juveniles playing with nukes they've inherited from their parents.
If everyone will get it, then no one who gets it and does not die or become seriously inconvenienced has failed. Dying, of course, is usually a fail, but literally everyone will do that, too.
There is no disagreement between your comments.

Unless these diseases are causing a worldwide pandemic, or killing off a catastrophe amount of people, these can be tested like normal and not get fast tracked like the covid vaccine one. Just because covid got waivers due to an emergency, does not mean every vaccine going forward will
I think Stripe was originally built on Rails (can’t find anything to confirm that at the moment). But my guess is they enforce things at the app layer, since Rails didn’t really provide a good way to enforce things at the DB layer originally. They support very old API versions by transforming requests backwards and forward through a list of API version transforms, which also suggests to me that this sort of thing is enforced at the app layer rather than the DB.
I'm guessing that even on M1s that a multi cpu compile drastically lowers battery life. I've never seen a battery that c++ didn't laugh at while torturing it
> Climate change demands we think outside categories and see what kinds of 'jobs to be done' we have to meet our needs and thrive

No it doesn’t. That is what authoritarians do under the guise of climate change when they just want control.

Climate change demands we reduce CO2 in aggregate. It is better to tax all gas equally to force a reduction in its use and keep increasing the tax until its emissions are negligible. No exceptions, full stop.
From the link you posted:

In this study, mRNA boosters were highly effective against infection with the delta variant but were less effective against infection with the omicron variant. However, these boosters led to strong protection against Covid-19–related hospitalization and death due to both variants.

We vaccinate in order to prevent severe disease, hospitalization, and death. The original vaccines, per the link you shared, are extremely effective at this.
The disease itself is inflammatory, no?

Yes, and definitely favour the deprecation. Treat web APIs like any interface - have minor and major versions, deprecating then dropping old versions.

the town fathers of Dorning prided themselves in looking after their needy. So, instead
of sending him away to a King's Charity House, where he would be made miserable,
they arranged the same for him locally. He was farmed out first to a cooper, then to a

some opinion spoiled him for anything sensible. Anton finally agreed to take in the

I inadvertently left my water bottle at a ticket machine somewhere in the Tokyo rail apparatus and then traveled 4-6 stations away and reported it to an info booth there. An attendant brought it to me on the next train less than ten minutes later. Mind blown.

It was a heavily insulated water bottle and keeping ice in it made a world of difference as I was traveling at the hottest time of the year.

A small object can be insignificant when it is anonymous but significant to an individual. It's nice when other humans "have our back" at scale.

Your car is not going to have a Ham license, and I already mentioned POTS; do you really think having your car sit close to a special phone-based communication station is the answer? Key fobs and walkie talkies and LoRaWAN do not have enough range to fully enable this kind of use.

> Otherwise, you're pretty much begging to be locked in your car and taken on a joyride which ends with you rolling off a cliff.

If hacks while driving are your concern, you could have the car isolate from the internet when the key is inside it and/or someone hits a stop button. If hacks before driving are your concern, I don't think any of your suggested radio applications are safe either. And I don't really see why half of them are better than an internet connection in the first place.
The point was that mRNA vaccines should be able to be quickly adapted to detect claws.
What's wrong with it? Scrolls fine on Firefox. I don't use smooth scrolling; maybe that's it?
SARS-CoV-2 injects people with rna that induces viral fragment production in human cells. It was always a tradeoff between a small non-reproducing set of viral proteins, a full-blown self-reproducing infection of the entire virus that spreads to others, or an endless series of lockdowns (there apparently isn't a possible world where all the countries coordinate to exterminate covid directly).
Current vaccine is an actual virus, just a weakened (attenuated) version. mRNA vaccine causes your body to create the proteins that your immune system can target if it encounters the actual virus. That allows your immune system to train on the targets without introducing an actual virus. The mRNA version doesn't have the ability to infect a cell and use it to reproduce, it ONLY triggers the immune system.

This article is obviously not talking about bicycles. :)

Is there some kind of HN Japanese article trend recently?

In any case I appreciate the culture of getting lost stuff returned in Japan much more than “magical” conbinis.

The article mentions money so I’ll add my anecdote. Many years ago as a student we had a going away party for some friends who were returning to the US. Someone had a “genius” plan to beat the jet lag. Since their flight was early in the morning we planned an all nighter so they would catch one of the first planes to the airport, board the plane and sleep the entire flight, waking up back in the US “refreshed”.

About half though the night and after way too many drinks I got sick. It was well past last train so my friends hailed me a cab back to my host family’s house about an hour away in suburban Kokobunji. The next thing I know I’m passed out in the back seat of the taxi and my parents wake me up, pay the $100 cab fare and help me into the house.

I wake up the next morning with a stiff hangover to find so much stuff missing, but most importantly my wallet. It had all the important stuff: a couple hundred in yen, my train pass, my ID cards, and most importantly, my residence card. My stomach sank thinking how I’d get it back.

Later that day as I was recovering the taxi driver came by the house and returned my wallet —- everything intact. I offered all the cash I had but he refused to take it. I cannot imagine he would make such a trip back out that far to return some stupid gaijin’s stuff. It left a permanent memory of people’s generosity.

On the flip side, a Japanese friend of mine and I would practice English. He was always interested in US slang, particularly swear words, which he never quite got right. I’ll always remember the day he nailed it.

He got $500 from his grandparents as a present for graduating high school and entering Waseda University. He called me up and says “I lost my wallet, I got the wallet back but fuuuck man, they took the money.”
Sure. The old one is a first gen BMW i3. But some coworkers, friends, and family have cars from the same time, Renault Zoé, Nissan Leaf, Volkswagen egolf, or Mitsubishi I-miev and it’s similar. Most of these are not connected.

> The people—ALL the people—who can afford this kind of dumbass vehicle

The people who can afford 272k for a car are a vanishingly small percentage of the world population. In this category of people wasting money, this is one of the least impactful activities. For comparison, they might also consider chartering a jet to the Alps for skiing, renting a yacht for a week in the Mediterranean, going on African safari, etc.

> So, no. No. Of course it's not actually accomplished by gasoline taxes

You do know there is a point where gas taxes can be raised high enough that it just pays for full carbon offset/capture, right? At that point you’re just having a fit that rich people exist, which has nothing to do with solving climate change.

One benefit of slides that largely duplicate the same content that was in the talk is that if they are made publicly available, then you can go back over them if you forget/weren't there/learn better through reading/etc. Of course, the same is true for transcripts, but noone makes transcripts and everyone makes slides.
And from a practical perspective that is not how it works unless you are in the mainstream. Further, independent labels don't enforce this rule against DJs, and entire scenes thrive without hearing a single track from any of the big music labels.

And besides, good luck asking any of these crews to provide that information, let alone payment. Very few people are making any significant money

Pay-for-performance is bullshit, copyright owners should not have any ability to control how the work is reproduced once it is released to the public.
That has not been my experience with Di2. No cable stretch means no need to adjust anything—not to mention no more lubing cables. Perfect shifting every time with no adjustment needed is the opposite of finicky. Multishift, shifting with the tap of a button, and hood buttons are quite useful. Charging the battery 2-3x a year is a small price to pay for all of this.
That is still not using vectors as much. My question is if classical geometric problems can be solved using vectors, using vector concepts for example using cross products for area expressions?

It's good that nobody said they were comparable jobs, then.

By the way, regarding computer work, I was talking about actual SEAL work, not support staff. The direct intelligence and digital recon work that intimately guides field teams is very much computer based, being carried out by personnel who are directly part of the SEAL structure.

Even field-centric SEAL operatives themselves, there are probably 3 computers-worth of digital equipment on their person at any given time.

So the tough-guy notion that "big military specops dudes have nothing to do with weak nerdy computer stuff, lol!" - which is embodied in the post calling the metaphor 'risible' - is very misguided indeed.
If they can do for other diseases what they did for COVID— significantly reducing severity— it’d be a huge win even if it wasn’t inoculating.
Sure, all things going great and your life isn’t under threat, ethics are important and Id encourage people to refrain from lying or harming others.

However, you do not always get to choose the situations you face in life and there is a reason war is described as “hell”. People sacrifice more than just their physical well-being (e.g., think along the idea behind Sophie’s Choice).

It is just the reality that sabotage, deception, and espionage are used and in many ways just as important for winning wars (aka, survival) as any other military tactic/strategy (just look to influential and studied military tacticians such as Sun Tzu, Cardinal Richelieu, or Clausewitz).
I'm not so sure it's busy-work.

There's a prioritisation issue. There are so many diseases, and many more proposed treatments. Without a good reason to jump the queue there are bound to be delays.

There's also the efficacy testing issue. Your phase 2/phase 3 test subjects are mostly young european males (Uni-students). Without deliberately exposing them, how likely are they (and the control group) get infected? It could take years for a statistically significant number of the control group to catch the disease.

When there's a pandemic on you might hit those numbers in a few weeks.
