> The problem is the viewers not giving the new sites a chance… only for then to complain about twitch having the streaming monopoly.

The overwhelming majority of users on Twitch are tweens, just like YouTube’s audience and they don’t even know what a tech monopoly is.

We’re the ones complainh about it, but guess what. Twitch doesn’t care about our viewership.
Is that difference something other than "we didn't think of it first?"

Desktop Linux definitely sucks if you define it as "what's the worst out of box experience I can expect?"

Unfortunately, that's the correct bar for things that need to "just work".

Sure, with enough experience, I'm sure I could buy hammer parts and build an awesome custom hammer.

If you gave me the box of parts and told me to quickly hang a picture, the head would probably fly off the hammer and kill someone.

(Desktop Linux user since kernel 0.9; it's by far the least bad option for me, but that doesn't matter in this context.)
I can imagine how nice it felt being that developer too, seeing this and being like... You know what? This could be better - and just knocking it out of the park

Small things that make a big difference like this are a high I chase
I mean, maybe. I’ve dabbled in FP a fair amount, but I was never convinced that it’s categorically better for developing software than imperative programming. Certainly it has its strengths and I enjoy it. But ultimately it doesn’t matter because the reality is that imperative languages dominate the industry, and I doubt that will change for the next decade if only for inertia.
For software engineering, anecdotally the companies pushing for 100% in office are the more traditional enterprise organisations, that haven't embraced technology and agile practices.

While remuneration might be similar, there is a lot of red tape and working people willing to put up with bureaucracy are generally not as passionate and therefore try and palm off work or engage in politics.

I agree in principle that 100% in office roles are a red flag and not worth the hassle.
Yes, very typical.

To be honest, it would be much better for someone to just fork the language and start a new team rather than transforming the existing leadership.

I really don’t think design-by-committee is a good method to create a language. There’s a significant gap between spec writers, compiler developers, and end users when it comes to C++. I think this can be alleviated if the language designers work closely with the compiler devs as one team, while listening to user pain points directly - which is why I think Rust had success in a relatively short amount of time.
The state should pay the child support equivalent to help the child in a case like this.
`COPY –chmod` reduced the size of my container image by 35%
There's probably a lot of reasons for both points of view with different weighting for different people, and there's lot of middle ground between in office and remote too.

Personally I actually like working in person, just not every day, and I don't like commuting. If I had it my way I'd be within walking distance of work and doing something like 2-3 days a week in the office. But as long as every business is still in the city and the trains are still shithouse then I'm on team full remote, even if that's not my "true" preference.
I hate this mentality. If the guy should be on the hook it should depend on the circumstances in my opinion. However, that is not the current case.
I've written a lot of bash scripts in my time, even some 10,000 liners. Christ - I have probably written over 100k lines of them. The big ones (by big I mean say over 100 lines) all started life when I thought they would remain under 100 lines.

I'm a professional programmer by trade. Admitting to starting a program I know would be over 100 lines in shell script would be close to an admission of incompetence, because technically shell script is one of the worst computer languages out there. So I'd never admit to it. But it's so damned portable, and ubiquitous and the batteries it comes with (the 'nix cli tools) are to powerful and complete, it makes irresistible at times.

Where this article falls down is they are recommending Python3. Python2 would be fine. But in 'nix environments, where file names and configuration files can't be treated as text (Unicode) because there is no well defined system encoding, Python3 manages to introduce more rare bugs than shell script. It encourages you to treat everything a text, the dies ignominiously when decoding the 'nix byte stream (file name or whatever) fails. (On Windows where everything is UTF16, this isn't a problem - for local files. It remains a problem for data from external systems, like the internet.)

Pull off making a programming language less reliable than shell was a mean achievement - but the Python3 devs did it. Hats off to 'em.
Why not. It could work. It probably would be easier to evaluate if you had a demo of how you see this implemented.

The final boss of RTFM
Places that I've implemented shell/utility scripts in Python tend to do so because their other application code was also in Python and Python has much more testing support than bash scripts will ever have.

That's why I've done it before, to write tools like custom log rotating / clean-up stuff; another project that comes to mind was a data pipeline that used some Python regex stuff to clean up non-printable characters and ugly stuff from text files before importing data. Both of these projects had lots of tests to verify that the code did what we wanted it to do.

My great-grandparents migrated from Italy to Brazil. Is there a better way to phrase that?

It's not a really strong identity, we don't cultivate the ancestry like Americans do, so unfortunately I don't speak the language, neither do most of the ~30M italian descendants in the south. The deeper into the countryside you go though, you start hearing old dialects of italian (and german).

What iChat plugins were there? I found this[1] for IRC but that's it (and I couldn't make it work despite being on an OS from the era).

It looks like MSN Messenger didn't require a plugin, it worked because it was XMPP which iChat/Messages supported out of the box, up until High Sierra I think.

> it would be much better for someone to just fork the language

Great idea! They could call their new language "Rust", sounds like a pretty cool name all-around.
If a language erases all types, like Haskell, it's fine. If a language doesn't erase any types, like C#, it's fine. If a language erases types in some places but not others, like Java, you get all sorts of awful problems.
It seems pretty clear to me that they want you to buy another one to use while it charges.

It is not generally very hard to understand Apple's choices when you consider their true goals. Harder to understand are apologists whose benefit is clearly not numbered among those goals.
Ayyyyyyy
Yes as it introduces a larger audience to the language.
To be fair, if one supports the Right to Repair, one should probably also support the legalizing of mod chips.
These practices would typically be associated with the idea that the dead have a genuine existence beyond simply “existing in my memory of them” and would be restricted in the forms they take by surrounding ritual, so I’m not sure there’s a direct point of comparison, though?
The claim that Wikileaks had access to equivalent Trump documents in 2016 has never been substantiated, to any degree. People sometimes point to Assange's comment that (paraphrasing) "Trump is a funny issue because any information we had would pale in comparison to what he says every day", but that was not an admission that Wikileaks had any interesting documents relating to Trump.

Also, the Wikileaks Twitter account contacted Trump Jr. directly to ask them to leak Trump's tax returns, and this fact was later used to attack Wikileaks. Why would they have taken this risk if they already had information on Trump?

I think some of the examples of Python being better are places you just shouldn't use Bash.

Like string manipulation (use other utils or even languages callable from Bash).

The threat model and security considerations there are too different between those examples.

TLS and SSH are not generally run on disconnected systems that may never get firmware updates, as just one obvious difference.
Oh, sure, sure.

What is the field?
At some point, it was inevitable. Just like any. other. government. that doesn't want to lose control, will do anything to crackdown on libertarian technologies that can be used by anybody.

From Tor, BitTorrent, and now cryptocurrencies they will not let them go out of their control and will introduce measures like this to monitor, regulate, ban or surveil their usage to limit crime, AML or criminal activity when it is totally all about control.

Regulations is where it is ultimately going; and governments call the shots. As for Trudeau, the apple never rots far from the tree.

From the post I was replying to, and the post of yours that preceded it in this thread, I take it that you consider democracy in the USA and UK to be less resilient than in Germany and Austria, and you attribute this to the latter pairs' defensive democracy.

The Wikipedia article you linked to, however, claims that the US uses defensive democratic tactics frequently. I'm not saying this implies the US has a resilient democracy - I'm not sure about the link between defensive democracy and resilience, and I am not sure this claim about the US can be justified in the first place - but if this claim were true, it would appear to contradict what I take to be your thesis, as outlined in my first paragraph here.

I my second paragraph, I am making the claim that there is a paradox in how the the defense of democracy can, and quite often has been, used to justify acts that do no such thing. In the US, since the 2020 elections, various states have amended voting laws, allegedly to defend democracy against electoral fraud, even though there is no evidence for any threat justifying these particular defensive measures, despite a great deal of effort being expanded in trying to find any.

I tried all of the available compression formats in parquet, natively in duckdb, and compressing raw duckdb files as a whole. IIRC just GZIPing SQLite files beat them all. The SQLite files were much smaller uncompressed (~220mb vs 800mb) which was probably most of the difference.

CoC grip trainers, a trip down the memory lane. I got certified for the #3 almost 20 year ago. I could do probably 8-10 complete reps at the time. The #4 felt like squeezing a brick, I am wondering whether with a couple of years of training I'd been able to close it, back in the day probably just 2 or 3 people had been able to: Joe Kinney and one or two of those guys from Wales.
I also had a welder build some specific grip training equipment for me.

Next time someone says "why does everyone in AI use NVidia and CUDA"? this is why.

They do high quality research and almost inevitably end up releasing the code and models. It's possible to reconstruct all that as a non-CUDA model, but when you want to use it, why would you when it's going to take months of work to get something that isn't as optimised?
Transactions (something like fsync) and code upgrades (something like database migrations or hot-reload in a debugger) seem like the tricky parts and I don't see a discussion of how they'll handle it.

Let's assume you get a stream of security patches from somewhere. How do you apply them without a reboot? What if a data structure needs to be migrated?

During early development, it's easy to just throw away all your data and start over after a redesign, but as with production databases or filesystem implementations, once you're storing real user data, you're not allowed to do that anymore. It's helpful architecturally to have a distinction between on-disk structures (which you're careful about either not changing or migrating) and in-memory structures (which don't) rather than trying to freeze or migrate everything.
Indeed! Ha. Thank you.

Nice to see. In Canada we've had these in Alberta and BC along certain highways for at least a few decades. Up here they pair them with extensive roadside fences and my understanding is they're extremely effective at reducing wildlife collisions.

I think of NFTs as tradable roles, in the sense of auth. But it's a concept that just doesn't have many proven use cases.
Redo has a conceptual cleanliness that other systems lack. But maybe it should emit a ninja script instead of building directly.
It's not common, but there are cases like this:

Here a women took a use condom form the trash to get pregnate.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/womanshour/2003_07_thu_01.shtml

Women Forged a signature of her ex-husband at an IVF clinic that had his sperm, and he still had to pay child support.
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/8544783/Woman-had-tw...

There are numerous other cases like this, not common but it does happen. Lying about birth control is similar, but harder to prove, but even in these blatant examples men are still forced to pay child support. You can't argue this is even just?

Edit: also looking there are some cases just as blatant as those two that have happened in the US. Not common, but it does happen. This is why I think child support should take into account the circumstances. Edges cases are always a thing in real life. A hard rule of a man must always pay child support is not good public policy and unjust to those who are victims of such things.

While lying about birth control is more murky it still should not be something we condone, and if there is proof of it and not some she said he said battle I think family courts should to take that into account.

There also cases of sperm donors ending up on the hook, for child support, not common if the clinic is doing things correctly, but it does happen.

There also cases of underage boys who end up on the hook for child support, despite what happened being statutory rape. This is insane.
