First: soft-delete really doesn't need a library. Paranoia is nice, but almost all of the code and complexity in that gem is to support multiple versions of rails and to let you configure that gem.

DIY in this case really is very simple. And far more flexible, performant even, and future-proof.

(I've worked on a project where two full-time devs spent days upgrading this gem; this is over 6 years ago). And a few months ago, I worked on a project where they had more code to configure, patch and work around paranoia, than any DIY ever did. My even simpler DIY version not only used 50% of the code we had to override the gem before, it allowed for some custom work that we could not do before.

And no: even DIY ain't as simple as you make it seem. Practical issue, that I encountered last year even, was where their "soft delete" was making state-machines very tough. Because in a FSM, "deleted" wants to be state, like anything else. But the "generic soft-delete" conflicts with that. So the project had both. And some fugly glue-code to sync between the FSM and the soft-delete and vice-versa. No suprise that this broke occasionally, making data re-available that people thought gone.
Yeah, the broken date range search drives me nuts. "Oh, there's a month old reddit post about what I'm searching for... nvm, it's 4 years old."
> HackerNews is a decent example of the latter

But HackerNews has a very narrow area of interest (“Anything that good hackers would find interesting“) and readership compared with Twitter or any other social media.

Even pre school PTA message boards can become a fighting ground of alternate thoughts and political hate and when the readership is wider can be full of direct and indirect spam and product promotion that moderators can have difficulty keeping up with.
Does any one have any advice for running neo vim on a centos host without admin to install it. (Short of hunting down all the source packages for dependencies and compiling)
They cracked down on the baseball thing way before they got banned though; after they got quarantined. Yeah, they were saying killing slaveowners is good, but who doesn't think that? It's what the American Civil War was. It's self-defense, and no worse then everyone on reddit that is cheering for Ukraine to win the war against Russia (by killing Russian soldiers) or all the people that said what Kyle Rittenhouse did was good, or countless other calls for violence that occur on all types of subreddits.
The argument isn’t that they don’t exist or are not published, it’s that they are not published widely.

Given that the circulation for Linuxformat was just 19,000 in 2014, it seems that that number backs up the position that you wouldn’t find this at a street level vendor.
Price spiking is meaningless without a timeframe and market.

> I'm not sure what your point is.

My point was very clear. There have been spikes. The spikes have been for various reasons, beyond pure inflation.

You can agree to disagree because (maybe you weren't paying attention at the same time periods or to the same markets), but the pricing has changed nonetheless.
If you had to pick an inflection point where Sun's dominance in the Unix world began to decline it would be this.

Not in terms of total installations, momentum and exponential expansion of the entire industry distort that, but in terms of it's influence. This is also the exact same time that 386BSD/NetBSD/FreeBSD and Linux started releasing.

As others have pointed out BSD-based SunOS was the king of Unix-like operating systems in the late 80's to early 90's. Sys-V based Solaris (1992) was an immediate flop and quickly earned the nickname "Slowlaris". Only by version 2.4 was it even usable in production. By 2.6 it was a decent operating system but anyone who remembered using SunOS wished they had never switched.
If you were doing fine at 49, you’ll be fine at 50 too.
You'd have to be really damn sure that Twitter is worth more than what Musk is paying.

It's hard to see how an owner of Twitter stock could rationally reject an offer with a guaranteed +38% return. For any serious investor, even if they believe Twitter is worth twice what it is now, they must have several other stocks they believe are also worth twice what they are now. And if Elon bought all of them out at +38% returns, that would be a tremendous year investing.
I grew up in one. Very sad they have largely disappeared.

Did they give any reasons? Was he posing a threat? Or are they denying it now?
Why is this such a trope in this thread? It's such a superficial strawman. Obviously cargo can copy all the dependency sources into a project's own tree if that's the right fit for a given project, and it almost definitely would be for the kernel.

There are lots of good arguments against pulling in lots of rust dependencies - it's too much code to audit, maintained by too many different upstream people and teams, lots more tooling would be needed to make sure all the dependencies are safe to use in the kernel, and on and on - but this one about an internet connection is both the most common one I've seen here and the most superficial and frankly silly.

> But when you're bad at the skill and can't underestimate, they look the same.

The (definitional) difference between bias and variance isn't related to do with whether you're bad at the skill or not. It's just mean vs variance of a probability distribution.

If there's a good faith acknowledgement on your part that there's something here you're not getting then I'm very happy to try and help you understand it, and in the spirit of hn I'm assuming that is the case as you've claimed. I'm definitely not interested in any sort of motivated argument, though. If you're attached to the ideas you're putting forward here in some way I have no desire to try and dissuade you.

Operating on the former assumption, I'm not really clear where the misunderstanding lies at this stage, but perhaps it would help if you were to expand on in what sense you think being "bad at the skill" would make bias and variance "look the same"?
I don't mean to be pedantic, but we're not monkeys. We're apes, and so are chimpanzees. As you linked to, communities of apes and gorillas (as well as monkeys) do fight other communities. But it's not so clear if this constitutes war. For instance, the "war" you linked to lasted for 4 years and consisted of 6 deaths.

"This “us” vs “them” outlook is also mirrored in human behavior. While the Gombe Chimpanzee War isn’t exactly identical to human war, it is strikingly similar in brutality and allegiance to a tribe."

You can download the appimage from the website or you can install it using flatpak. Then set up an alias for "neovim" pointing either to the appimage or to the flatpak command.

In a word, lysenkoism. Academic sciences are so corrupt at this point that if you don't pay tribute to the narrative your career is dead.
It doesn’t matter regarding what I said. It’s about dissing your competitors. Sure that doesn’t make it a lie but it’s better if people know where you stand; As an independent reviewer vs shareholder of a competitor brand.

It also affects how he presents the facts and directs the videos.

I say this while loving Framework and hoping that their approach puts pressure on likes of Apple for openness. No sympathy for Apple here.
> Just because most companies are too lazy to audit their dependencies

They are not “too lazy”. It’s not economically viable for them to do so for various reasons.
I sometimes get about 20-30% of my work by knowing the CEO of a consulting firm, yes. Anything they don't have over-night resources for, they redirect to me. So that part definitely rings true.
Totally agree, compatibility is really the key for any database product or any product. Minimizing the migration gap helps adoption.
It seems like using a web hosting service that provides one click Wordpress installs would solve most of your problems. Plus there is no lock in. You can export all the content and import it into another Wordpress instance pretty easily.

That doesn't change anything
Putin isn't acting in a manner that furthers Russia's interest. Just his own, personally.

Russia has been totally screwed by this invasion. Strategically, economically and geopolitically. Putin, however, has consolidated his personal power. He has also opened up east Ukraine's mineral resources to himself and his cronies.
Fatal counterpoint, re authority vs. tangible results: vaccinology.
I spent a solid percentage of my life thinking exactly along those lines, with a checklist of medical advances and modern appliances to back it up, but I don't think that any more. A combination of international (wayyy off the beaten path) travel and super long distance backpacking, coupled with a technologically focused career living in large US cities has convinced me that we've simply forgotten what made people in the past happy, or passionate, or content, and none of things had very much to do with wealth at all. Once basic survival needs are met, it really doesn't take much if you don't know you need it.

Put another way, if I were an ascetic monk 500 years ago, I have no doubt that there would be a collection of people ready to tell me that only a fool would live in the woods when I could easily live in a village and have any type of straw mattress I wanted. We could discuss whether or not they had a worse life than us, but we don't really need to because they're just us, but earlier. 100 years from now some father will be explaining the exact life we live today to his daughter, and she'll never believe that we could be anything except miserable in our abject poverty because we what... didn't have a biobelt generated environment shield around us or something.

For the same reasons that it took a lot of convincing for people to believe that the entire universe didn't revolve around the Earth, it's almost impossible to take ourselves our of the time we live in and put us the continuum of history where we actually exist. But if you walk away for a little bit to a place where life works the way it used to a few generations ago (but with modern medicine of course, and free food, in historic terms), it makes it very very difficult to understand how people today could ever be happy living anonymous, isolated lives with social interactions mediated by software.

ps. I know that there are starving people somewhere, and of course their lives are actually miserable.
I’m guessing the “by” was a joke?
I developed it as a kid, and even though I feel a lot of anxiety in life, I don’t feel anxious about it.

Maybe it’s easier for us to accept certain things when we are younger. if it happened today I probably would be more anxious about it. It also helps that mine hasn’t gotten worse - I noticed it, took corrective action, and continue to be mindful about it thru today
Are there english news on this?
Competition for finite resources
One of the Bytebase authors here and I am the one who chose SQLite in the first place.

The project started in 2021 Jan and I did notice litestream. And actually, one of the main reasons I chose SQLite is because of litestream. Because I could see it could be our HA solution when needing it.

SQLite is great, but the schema change constraint is really painful as you mentioned.

As to the Tailwind, as a backend engineer working on database for most of my 10+ career and single-handedly built the site, I can only say it's godsend;)

Scale isn't a linear kind of problem though. The complexity, if not carefully managed, in my experience grows faster than linearly.

I always see Salesforce as a huge company with tons of resources whose products struggle frequently.
I would call most shopping mall surfaces and train station newstands, street level.
It would be more constructive if instead of name-calling you'd offer a convincing counterargument to what they're saying.

Or do you agree with their arguments, and just have an issue with how they convey them to the general audience?
The last thing I want is to spend extra time with my coworkers. Intense work interaction is enough, I strongly prefer to meet "outsiders" in my spare time to actually be able to relax efficiently. Thanks but no thanks.
>dumpster fire burning inside node_modules.
This made me laugh a bit.

I agree with everything you said, I have React Native projects that will never run again. The node ecosystem is still an unstable mess, everything is largely hacked together.

I do use Flutter for my side projects, and it appears to be gaining popularity. It feels like a much better React Native since you don't have 20 years of legacy JavaScript code running in the background.

Yeah. These conversions are fairly straightforward, though:

Hey there - speaking as somebody who was born profoundly deaf but has been hearing 30+ years later thanks to the use of a cochlear implant (CI) and auditory-verbal training, and almost always at the point that people off the street don't realize that I have it ... there's options out there, she doesn't have to live with that constraint. Would highly encourage you to look into the technology there at bare minimum. (The earlier that people have the training/implant, the more exceptional results tend to happen, given there's less delay in speech.)

Happy to share my story and some resources - my email's in the profile. Best of luck to you and your family, and I feel for you.
You need to set up various environment variables to scale up per app and framework, but once you do it should work across both the monitors and the laptop.
Also, not an expert, but I'd think that would stop after one is dead? Although some differing (male/female) chemistry at death could come into play.
And buy it from Rosatom that company that sells uranium and builds nuclear weapons. Oh, wait there is no profit in building nuclear weapons so they finance it with selling uranium.

France payments enable Russia to stay a nuclear power.
In no particular order, but equipment I recognise I use frequently. Probably missing a bunch of other stuff.

- Cab heating (keep warm when cold)
- engine block heater (start vehicle below -25C)
- windscreen wipers (clear snow/dust from windows)
- demister/deicer (quickly clear fog/ice from windows)
- air suspension seats (stop spine popping out of butt)
- Cab air-conditioning (keep cool when hot)
- cab air filtration (reduce chance of nasty lung conditions / death)
- power-steering (be able to turn without arms falling off)
- wet-braking (nice to have breaks when you need them)
- a handbrake that works (safely keep vehicle running while unmanned)
- multiple lockable diffs (you WILL get stuck in mud without these)
- multiple range gearing (go super slow without stalling and also go fast enough on highway)
- quick-reverse (switch from forwards to backwards quickly)
- reversing/positioning cameras (so you dont hit stuff you dont want to hit, and do hit stuff you want to hit)
- bluetooth entertainment system (podcasts, audiobooks)
- soundproofing (soooo loud otherwise)
- winch (get unstuck without waiting for help)
- CTIS (save about 20 mins a day solely adjusting tyre pressure from field/road)

Im sure you can do without a bunch of that, but you will just be miserable for much of the year (or you dont actually spend much time operating).

I guess you could add safety equipment to that as well. Rollcage, multi-point harness, etc.
Theres also the obvious stuff that you just need to do the job - tow hitches, 3-pt mounts, PTOs, etc.

I didn't make perfect grades in history, but I was under the impression that medieval England was a monarchy.
It not going to end. AI will make bots indistinguishable from humans, it's already a problem, and will become a major challenge for online services, the internet, all digital content in general. Proof of Human is something that has to be solved sooner or later. The solution is already being explored, governments will have to issue citizens ID-Tokens on some new blockchain, specifically made for that purpose. That way, all content will be signed, and can be verified as genuine.
Complete anonymity will be a thing of the past, but I don't think there's really any other way.
I see your point, but this is really niddly. It explicitly asks if the address in `x` is equal to the address in `y-1`. And if so, it modifies the contents at that address which is equal to both.

If the conclusion was that the C standard could/should tighten up its verbiage for cases like this, I'd agree. But the conclusion is something about adding provenance to integers...
I concur with the core message -- that the current research on psychedelics is not strong. Some of the problem is that the research itself was not designed with an eye on earning FDA approval. This was hard to do because we'll never have a true double-blind psychedelic trial for psychedelics like we can have for SSRIs. Spravato recently showed a path for FDA approval, because ketamine treatment for depression closely mirrors protocols for psychedelics.
This kind of attitude is how bad products get made.
If IPv6 and Segment Routing IPv6 (SRv6) are gaining momentum and become popular then there will be no need for MPLS/LDP. Now with SRv6, you can control your end-to-end connection QoS from the edge without touching the core. This is what networking people call IP 2.0 where IP is consolidating its main role as the real nexus of the Internet whereas IP 1.0 is just patching the IPv4 with a duct tape MPLS[1].

I've worked at a company now for 14 years - where we change what it cost plus a margin to make a fair living. Other competitors have started to 'charge based on the value made by the product'. We're winning by becoming the more 'fair and honest value' brand.

I think 'looking into customers wallets' and charging them for the value they will create with your product is a bit lame. I understand my opinion is in the minority of at least other high level managers or owners of companies.
Postgres is much heavier than SQLite in terms of binary size/CPU/RAM, but I think scalability is the win.
Wind energy is currently responsible for about 15% of the energy produced in Europe. So relying on wind is absolutely impractical even if we invest 10x more than we do, and you would have to prepare for days with low wind availability in the whole continent as well, because they do occur.

The problem you describe is serious, but I would guess over 90% of nuclear power generation in the continent remains unaffected, if not more. So a grid here makes a lot of sense, and works as a reliable alternative. It is also pretty easy to design a grid that does not rely on the same types of reactors.
Why Lithium Sulfur?
It will be a hard fight to fight. Soon TV's will come with built in 5G, you won't even need to setup its wifi. It will be a difficult to win battle.
How so? I can buy a modified Thinkpad (https://minifree.org/product/libre-t440p/ or http://www.cnmod.cn/x210/) because enough people demand it. If enough people demand dumb TVs but their niche prices far exceed smart TVs, then people will begin selling modified smart TVs without cell chips for mutually fair prices.
True, I love to learn and especially learn new ways to think.

Everything is just a just for me ^^
> One thing I always loved in any old sci-fi that dealt with internet-like spaces was that most of them had a concept of a public internet. They generally sort of felt like the "slums" of the internet filled with trash and spam and stashes for hackers, but the concept of a public space to which anyone could post anything always appealed to me. I'm quite sad that we don't have something like this.

Usenet still exists, and it is definitely filled with trash and spam. There are various projects working on similar sorts of public (or sometimes private but open) spaces without those downsides, it remains to be seen what will end up filling this niche.

In my experience it's extremely effective to filter IP blocks where a lot of trouble seems to come from. Services that don't scrutinize their customers very carefully tend to accumulate questionable customers.
I'm a dev that spends 90% of his computer time with a JB IDE open and I'll give you my perspective on it. It just works out of the box (or with a couple of 1-click install plugins) for practically all my use cases.

* I mostly write Kotlin/Java for backend, desktop and Android projects. JB has that covered: Gradle integration, refactoring, navigation, dependency updates, documentation viewer, visual git log/diff/merge/rebase/blame, visual Android layout editor, visual JavaFX/Swing layout editors, run configurations, step through debugger that shows current variable state on top of my source code, all the android resource/variant stuff, test runners, trigger tests from source code, tool windows for docker (compose) or other services and probably much more.

* I do C/C++ development on some projects in Clion which has most of the stuff from above but :s/Gradle/CMake/g.

* Aside from the above I also use my IntelliJ Ultimate for Python, Ruby, Golang, Rust, Markdown, Mermaid graphs, Kubernetes yamls and Terraform hcl files, Lua and probably some more. All with the excellent IdeaVIM plugin so I have my modal editing and ex commands.

I gladly pay $600/year for all this. If I have to spend one day (likely more) on configuring vim/nvim to even do a subset of what I mentioned, then JB is cheaper.

So, that is why I switched from years of Vim use (and a couple years of Emacs before that) to JB and I haven't looked back. I don't see why I should artificially limit myself to vim/terminal only when JB+IdeaVIM gets me the best of both combined.
>cable on the Studio display.

This is an interesting bit about how the same company can "design" so many different ways to do the same thing. I wouldn't expect them to have a dedicated team to design power cords/sockets. So teams designing different products at the same time will probably have slightly varying designs. Then I go back to that's what VPs are for to see what's going on within each design team and see how good ideas from one can be shared in the other teams.

In other words, how can something as cool and useful as Magsafe be on one thing and not obviously mandated to be used on all the things?
