> I greatly look forward to tech companies who prefer written documentation (eg, Notion) over Slack.

this is (at least how i'm reading it) a similar issue i've seen in hobby spaces that have moved from forums to platforms like discord for support. discord is great for right now collaboration but the archival process is like pulling teeth. it leads to repeated questions being asked because threads aren't often used and one problem's solution is mishmashed in with ten other conversations.

sometimes there are links to a wiki in the discord, which is nice. but it's still only sometimes, and if you have a problem that hasn't come up yet, you're stuck navigating discord.
For governments to be truly accountable to the people, you need some form of stable civil society which requires some wealth. So bypassing the corrupt government is exactly what you want to begin with.

> you're saying you think it's possible we can have 5% interest rates and not a massive recession?

There would be a massive recession. (And/or inflation.) That's the point.

What is not possible is for the federal government to wind up in a situation where interest payments are dominating the budget, inflation is low, there is political will to service the debt, and yet magically the Congress can't appropriate the money. It can. It always can.

Federal debt servicing is not a constraint on rates per se. It's a constraint because it requires either debt monetization (inflation) or high rates (recession) which are politically difficult.

> inflation is not a problem

How did you interpret "inflation and politics are always the constraint" as "inflation is not a problem"?

GraphQL APIs that are public will usually have a less than optimal dev experience because it has to consider general and unknown use cases. GraphQL shines when you control the API and the frontends that consume it. This is mostly because the schema design will reflect the exact use cases the frontend needs. So the data and its shape and its mutations are exactly what the frontend needs. You can't really do that for public APIs because you don't really know or predict the use cases for 3rd party frontends.
Over lifetimes this works, sure. Any animal capable of passing on information to offspring likely does so, because it confers a boost in survival chance. For examples: sea turtles lay a bunch of eggs and leave, while a wolf family raises a much smaller number of pups.
That's not all it does. It "breaks" to the nearest "try" barrier. It's basically the desugaring of the Err branch in the ? operator, that you can't currently express yourself. It's mostly relevant for try blocks. I guess you'd most commonly see this in "control flow like" macros that are similar to the ? operator, like various assertion macros that want to "yeet" an error in case the assertion fails (instead of panicking like those in std).

So in a sense it actually is very similar to `throw` in traditional languages, as it can be caught inside the same function and isn't forced to `return` the error outside the function.
What would you say?

Making it personal I don't think helps anyone.

What we really need a thread by Ryan Breslow.
The idea is that if there is less supply, you ideally want there to also be less demand.

If supply decreases but there's also a ton of cash splashing around, then people try to use it to get things... But there's not enough things, so the price of everything gets bid up.

More than 20% of all dollars in existence were "printed" in the last 2 years. This, on it's own, would tend to increase inflation. Combined with supply side issues, we can see how it has definitely increased inflation.

Inflation itself is also an issue in terms of making sure the supply side works well. Prices don't go up smoothly and uniformly for everything at once, rather there's chaos and delays as every step of everything gets renegotiated, and a cascade effect from that that causes more disruption.

So, you want to deal with inflation, probably. Increased rates mean less money being "created" in the form of credit, which means fewer dollars splashing around, which means fewer dollars to bid up the prices of short supplies, which means lower inflation, theoretically.
The conclusion I tried to shine a light on is that the hunt for an identity is ultimately fruitless, unsatisfactory, without end. I "was a punk" insofar as one can be what was a dynamic process in the 80s.

The richest expression of identity, one that doesn't fit into the cookie cutters of music genre enthusiast or political firebrand (and the path of least resistance) is ultimately where one drops labels and responds naturally to the world as it is, moment by moment.

If we're all going to be turned on to the world and co-exist peacefully, equitably, well that's a world that stops drawing party lines and starts opening to an experience that isn't a scorecard of labels under your Twitter bio.

If that's going at it backwards, bring on the retrograde.
Thanks, from my experience with desktop apps in managed language I alwas added a global catch for crashes that were not caught or can't be caught, there I was writing the details in a log file. Then I had a menu entry for submitting a bug report, a popup would open and the user had the option to include the log file with the exception information and details like operating system, runtime version etc. The only thing that was bringing down this app in the higher level language(it was an Adobe AIR app in Action Script 3) was the freaking Web View , because was a wrapper over WebKit and that was C++.

This days doing backend dev I am forced to move stuff in a different process but most stuff I use I prefer to use binaries then libraries , for example for resizing an image instead of using the built in image library that crashes sometimes and brings the script down I install image magic on the server and write a script for resizing an image then call that script and check it's output , sometimes I had to use the timeout linux program to kill the program if it gets stuck on some input file.

If I were to create that image resize library in Rust I would attempt to catch everything , including panics and return it as a error result(so only system crashes would be uncaught)

The power of a thousand tiny violins?
It's both, their specialization provided slack (both to themselves and the engineers). And yeah, the value stream was grossly misunderstood, and the work was undervalued.

Because of their specialization they were fast with broken systems (they used the same crappy web apps as us, but they understood them). Because they were not engineers and they got the work done fast, there was no perceived value in their role (classism and other biases at play here), it was thought (bad assumption) that the engineers could do it just as well themselves. And since the engineers had more than enough slack anyways, they could lose 15-30 minutes before and after a trip to dealing with the paperwork.

And if that assumption had been correct, maybe it would have been the right call. But the assumption was incorrect, and it was a very stupid call. We didn't charge the customers for that overhead, so any time the engineer spent on it (hours, sometimes days) was revenue lost. The dedicated team cost much less than the lost revenue so it was overall a net loss.

I just can't understand why they would make this ancient OS so inaccessible.

The OS is used by a limited and probably dwindling number of vendors of specialized, complex and long-lived software originally developed for VAX/VMS. I was tangentially related to users of such software for a while; the vendor made the VAX->Alpha and Alpha->Itanium transitions, but saw the writing on the wall and ported the software away from VMS. VSI is not a large outfit, and they're a business. They don't need the hassle of dealing with hobbyists.

It is genuinely great stuff, and with an active community it would probably re-emerge as a legitimate contender.

It's a fascinating and superbly documented system, agreed. But a contender? Far too late for that, IMO, if it was ever in the cards (I don't think so.)

I'm approaching my 50s, and for me, it's because I am still astounded by the achievement of a global, low-cost, communications network.

When I was a child, international phone calls were still rare, expensive, and unreliable things, and if you left your home country, staying in touch mostly involved getting newspapers from home (24 hours late), or maybe getting lucky and receiving shortwave radio broadcasts like the BBC World Service or Voice of America.

First getting internet access seemed amazing, and for me it's still amazing. Even when you were first tethered to a copper phone line, that line seemed like a pipe to the entire world. Cellular internet blew my mind, and satellite technologies like Starlink are blowing my mind again.

What an absolute privilege to be living in an age of almost universal global communication.
interesting. Kinda like fastify json schema.
You can experience this alternate universe right now in Github Actions, which allows you to refer to other "Actions" by their tag, and encourages you to pin yourself to a "v3" which the team will then destroy and replace to update you.

If this sounds terrible, insecure, and begging to be exploited, it's because every idiot on the Github Actions Team should be censured for their poor understanding of Git, Github, and yet proceeding to ship anyway.

Destruction of natural habitat is a problem, pretty much everywhere on earth. If you're watching a show about birds, it probably covers where they live. If you like seeing birds, you probably care about them being around in the next 50 years.

There is more to environmentalism than just climate change. I am obligated to point out that climate change will also change habitats, which will negatively impact many bird populations.
That is my experience too.

But it might be something that is subjectively felt, and people then attributed it to be something that depletes.
Even if the depletion is invalidated, the subjective feeling might however still be valid.

If you want an altogether nerdier name maybe call it Wittgenstein syndrome?

Drury reports a conversation with the famed philosopher:

> So the next day when we were alone I asked Wittgenstein to tell me more about Kierkegaard. Wittgenstein: “Kierkegaard was by far the most profound thinker of the last century. Kierkegaard was a saint.” He then went on to speak of the three categories of life-style that play such a large part in Kierkegaard’s writing: the asethetic, where the objective is to get the maximum enjoyment out of this life; the ethical, where the concept of duty demands renunciation; and the religious, where this very renunciation itself becomes a source of joy. Wittgenstein: “Concerning this last category I don’t pretend to understand how it is possible. I have never been able to deny myself anything, not even a cup of coffee if I wanted it. Mind you I don’t believe what Kierkegaard believed, but of this I am certain, that we are not here in order to have a good time.”
I had no problem getting both Alpha and Itanium kits from VSI, after explaining that I planned to run on an Alpha emulator and a hypothetical Itanium box that I didn't actually own yet, but may someday acquire. So they're clearly not too picky about hardware ownership.

They did initially suggest the student package to me as well, but after replying that I had prior VMS experience and would prefer to install and configure the system myself, they promptly issued my licenses.

Tips, suggestions, warnings - very subjectively and at random...

- The "hard" stuff (with numbers in it...) didn't really grab me at all, I originally studied math and was somewhat disappointed in much of that part of this kind of MBA program, my hunch is that a regular full-time MBA would have been better for this, more immersion, this was all a little in the one, out the other for me because there wasn't much time to practice.

- But, the "soft" stuff on the other hand, was a goldmine, all the personal development, organizational psychology, negotiations, etc. This alone was worth the tuition.

- The best part was gaining a far better understanding and tolerance of why and how pretty much everything we work with in software is more or less "broken", it's actually not broken, it's as good as allowed by budget and organizational circumstance, and if something is to be improved, well, then that background has to allow for that improvement or else the improvement is just a pipe dream.

And you meet interesting people who will do interesting things in the community where you live, assuming you stay put, which I didn't, so I can't say much about that.

Ask HN: How to Read More Books?
I would like to read more books rather than spend time on the Internet. But each time I pick up a book I think I can probably do a little bit of work or practice some interviewing skills like leetcode rather than reading which is not going to give any benefit. Secondly, books are overly verbose so I tend to read 10 min summaries which obviously don't convey the material as nicely as the real book. Anyone find this familiar? How do you commit yourself to a healthy reading habit? (I prefer physical books than another digital device like Kindle).
Plaid is a huge company with a CEO who is presumably a professional adult. Making sarcastic, whiny commends on Twitter should be beneath him. He just sounds like a child throwing a tantrum because a company decided to compete with him.

Not saying he shouldn't feel bad, or threatened, or upset -- those are perfectly valid feelings to have -- but airing those feelings like that is unprofessional and, frankly, pretty lame.

But if you design a public GraphQL API, you cannot trust the query issuer (Browser or App on the Client). You have to enforce those rules outside of the query. And yes, there is tons of ways to do this outside of GraphQL, which is exactly my point, that row/column permissions alone do not suffice.
A lot of CEOs say this platitude. They are initially worried, but it often turns out to be good news because it accelerates or is a sign of a growing market.

Here's how we do it: https://wundergraph.com/docs/overview/features/caching
We "persist" all operations using their name (unique) as part of the path. Variables are passed via query parameters. We also add a unique hash as query param which is generated by the configuration. This way, each "iteration" of the application invalidates the cache automatically. Additionally, we generate ETags for each request to reduce response payloads to zero when nothing changed. (https://wundergraph.com/docs/overview/features/automatic_con...) Combined with the generated type-safe client, this is a very solid setup.
Why do you think leetcode is more useful than books?
This aligns with the numbers we had when I worked at a large webhosting company.
Where did you get "verbal abuse" from? We're talking about competition, so a far closer analogy would be an NBA player having to play a a game against one of their friends. Should they not have to do that in exchange for their salary?
I get the CEO speak, but I think rchaud is saying "no one welcomes competition - everyone wants a monopoly and to make as much money as possible". So saying otherwise sounds like garbage.

People only "want competition" in the manner of controlled opposition, where they know they can beat someone.

It's pained me to listen to people who have elaborate ideas of promoting disengagement with their web sites (e.g. apologizing for having ads) in the context that engagement is such a precious thing because it hard to get.

If there is an "art of seduction" there is also an art of driving people away and the two are closely linked. Søren Kierkegaard wrote his notorious Diary of the Seducer to drive away his fiance Regine Olsen who never quite fell out of love with him despite Kierkegaard demonstrating what an awful person he was to come up with that text.

> Why give yourself one more thing to stress out about?

Because this is something we have some control over. Like trans-fats, no amount of lead is healthy (it can take the place of Zn and other elements in our bodies, and is especially harmful for young animals as they make foundational cells). If I want to grow food for my family (which includes a young human animal), I want the soil to be healthy enough (whatever we decide that is). If the soil that is present isn't healthy enough, I can import better soil (and contribute to it over time with compost from our kitchen).

I agree with you about the importance of not adding stressors, with the specification: don't add stress about things I can't control. For things we collectively have some control over I lobby my representatives, make comments on HN, and otherwise try to let it go.

And how do you unit test triggers? Yes you can do it in a ton of ways, but you just end up scattering your business layer all over the database, the GraphQL adapter, API gateways etc. The alternative is just to create a dedicated BE service endpoint (in whatever you prefer, REST,HTTP/JSON,SOAP, gRPC etc.), which does the required checks for you.

Triggers, functions or whatever you use are just code; yes, that is my pitch: Have your buisness logic in code, ideally in a dedicated BE API endpoint instead in the DB.
