After I was comfortable enough in Rust to start writing reasonable projects, I soon encountered modules as a necessary subject, and it confused me so much. I decided to take a couple hours to read docs, play around with some drop-dead simple code that would organize code into modules as either `mod foo { }` blocks, single file modules (foo.rs) or modules with their own submodules, organized by directory (foo/mod.rs with foo/bar.rs).

It pretty much instantly became obvious how to use them, and in retrospect, I don't know why it was so confusing. I think it's a good example of how important it is to [a] apply deliberate practice/learning and [b] have empathy for others that haven't (yet) progressed to our own level of understanding.
I mean, it's Ashton Kutcher. He has a certain name recognition to be sure, but he's an actor. What has he ever done to show that he's some kind of deep thinker on the subject of child exploitation? I'll grant that his emotional motivations are genuine, but not that he actually has any workable solutions to offer.

I thought about it, but it would be hard to distinguish between an enumerator and just static data. For example if you logged in with only one account it could classify the "username" field as an enumeration, because there is only one captured value.
The pro-choice side would say the by banning abortions you are infringing the right of a woman to choose when to have a child. The pro-life side would contend that by enabling abortions you are infringing the right to life of an unborn human. Both positions are framed in terms of human rights and plenty of "reasonable rational" people argue vigorously for each one while viewing those who disagree with them as basically evil.

Framing the debate in terms of individuals' rights is intended to remove the topic from the realm of political discussion and shut down dissent. It also completely drowns out discussion of the societal effects of allowing/banning abortion, which is just as important as the effect on individuals. The same unproductive dynamic plays out in the debate over e.g. the right to free speech.
Could it be this simple? Shit just builds up in the blood that the liver and kidneys and stuff are not 100% efficient at removing? So you just need to... get rid of it or dilute it?

I mean that can't possibly be a full solution but could a major "win" on life span or at least health span be as simple as some kind of dialysis session?

Could this also be a hidden mechanism involved in some of that hyperbaric oxygen chamber evidence for life/health extension? Maybe all that oxygen oxidizes and destroys some of this stuff.

Yeah the point I'm making is this: It's fine for you to have that opinion, but if you don't find other ways to resolve Kutchers concerns he's going to continue pushing for this policy, and because he's a rich celebrity pushing a policy that the state is already pretty keen on, it's likely he's going to succeed. So on a practical level if you actually want to stop this becoming policy, it would be much more effective to actually to find different solutions.

Usually the recruitment org will use the grant money to hire someone to work on the grant project, at which point the money is successfully laundered for any legal use by the employee.

Or you can simply attribute X% of an existing salary to the grant, and not even bother hiring someone new.

It's relatively easy to spend grant money on anything, as long as it's not in unreasonable amounts.
Someone linked a wikipedia format guide for TSV, but the world seems to have settled on using the escape codes \\, \t, \n with their obvious meanings, then allowing arbitrary binary.

That should be parallelism friendly, even with UTF-8, where an ascii tab or newline byte always mean tab and newline.
That's why good database wrappers support referencing columns in result sets by column name. It's good practice.
What's the point of "safety" if it's not needed anymore, as it seems not to be under nogil? If that's right, then modulo regressions/bugs possibly introduced by nogil, the choice is really just between worse or better performance, and it's not important whether there are (more effortful, by the way) ways of getting much much better performance.

Moreover, to the point about writing performance-critical sections in $NOT_PYTHON, as Sam Gross explains in the nogil design doc, things aren't always so straightforward for scientific computing:

> Calling into Python from C requires acquiring the GIL -- even short snippets of Python code can inhibit scaling. Addressing this issue sometimes requires rewriting large portions of Python code in C/C++ to actually achieve the desired parallelism. For example, PyTorch rewrote all of the core automatic differentiation from Python to C++ to avoid acquiring the GIL in the backward pass.
BigQuery also supports trailing commas!
US left the gold standard in 1933. Whether you like the Fed or not, it was a hard money world until then.
So you have not read the proposal?

> To mitigate compatibility issues and improve debugging, the proof of concept can run with the GIL enabled or disabled controlled at runtime by an environment variable (or command-line option). If CPython adopts some form of the GIL changes, I’d expect this runtime control to be useful for at least a few releases to address flag day issues.

This doesn't say "GILectomy will forever remain an opt-in".
"Orthogonal" in this context means "wholly and completely unrelated." It's not a buzzword.

That means it does not support binary data, which TSV does.
Where can I read more about how that volume of data is generated? I'm looking at the description of ALMA right now. So is each "node" a cluster of antennas? And each antenna is collecting a high-resolution snapshot across a wide frequency band. And each snapshot has to be timestamped. What's the sampling rate? It says the frequency range is 31GHz to 950GHz but how wide can a single snapshot be? Then to move it around are you using InfiniBand or something even faster?

Agree. to this day none of them match heroku's magical DX... which makes it more mind-boggling that SalesForce seems to be really intent on just throwing it away.

Render.com seems to be the closest. It's gotten a lot closer in the past two years. And is basically trying to be more or less a clone of heroku, with a few minor update tweaks for how the world has changed (while heroku has not).

Maybe it'll reach it before heroku fully implodes -- although it's hard because so much of heroku is also the ecosystem, that so many third-parties are adding value to heroku too, from add-ons, to just writing documentation for how to integrate their thing with heroku, to external non-approved "add-ons". (If the hirefire.io developer is reading this... hirefire for render?)

Fly.io is also really interesting -- for trying to do something different than heroku, actually much more sophisticated/interesting than heroku, but the trade-off is that it's not really as management-free as heroku, it has seemed to me. (I don't want to write a Dockerfile, nope). But maybe it'll get closer too.

> The purpose of deposits is to reduce the risk of default. Banning deposits will simply mean that banks will give fewer loans, and loans which are granted will have a higher interest rate. This will only hurt the poor.

I disagree … having the deposit available to pay for unexpected expenses allows for a financial cushion for buyers after purchasing a home. Instead, many buyers are draining their savings cushion in order to just get the keys to a house and have little to no available cash to handle any financial disruptions.

> Putin has been crystal clear, in numerous speeches and written statements, that he considers several other countries 'Russian territory' including Belarus, Georgia, the 'stans' and Ukraine.

Don't know why you've been downvoted; Putin's MO is to openly support dissidents in neighbouring countries; declare that the dissidents are being persecuted or "genocided"; encourage the dissidents to declare a republic; and then move an army in, to defend the bogus republic.

Declaring that Ukraine is part of Russia doesn't make it so.
I don't mean to troll, but I have to say the GIL is not and never has been a problem with Python. It's weird to me that this one tiny issue has grown into such a big waste of time, energy, and attention. I've written Python for something like twenty years now and never once had a problem due to the GIL.

It's a classic case of "you're doing it wrong": Python supports concurrency in several useful ways, and specifically does NOT support it in one particular very useful way. If you have somehow arranged to bang your head on that one specific thing that Python doesn't do, and you cannot figure out how to not bang your head on the GIL, then for goodness' sake use Go or Erlang or something that DOES do the one thing you can't live without.

Don't get me wrong. If this succeeds it will be a great thing. This effort seems well-thought out, and I wish Sam Gross luck and success.
Agree. Module is a weak design of Rust.
> So at one point they were 1:1 USD, which is actually a major revelation

Is it a revelation or something you made up? NY OAG was confident they were able to prove that that Tether lied about backing in 2017, 2018, and 2019. Just because they don't have sufficient proof that Tether lied prior to 2017, doesn't make it a revelation that Tether was telling the truth. Indeed, given the trend, it seems quite reasonable to think that Tether was lying about backing at some point in 2014, 2015, and 2016. Who knows how much, they certainly aren't trustworthy.
And that is expected, because graphics takes up a lot of space, so this comparison is not intellectually honest. But I'd like to see you try running just the "Cocoa/UIKit, Quartz, Core*, drivers, etc" without the kernel and BSD userland. Without the GUI, we still have an operating system that is entirely OSS. With only the GUI, we have nothing that works.
>tattling used to be followed up by a fistfight in the school yard. Snitches get stitches. It was one way that children used to learn good boundaries. I wonder whether kids are better off today, in our anti-bullying world where even a harsh word can be punished with detention or suspension, whereas snitching is encouraged. What kind of adults are we producing? So far, the results don't look too good.

So the context of that kid, he learnt that stuff at home. His parents were famous for calling the police and city on their neighbours. The peak of it was July 1st, people were firing off fireworks. They called the police to say someone was shooting/bombing their house. The police obviously show up in force big time. They closed blocks of the neighbourhood only to later find out they had a history of false police reports. False firefighter stuff saying open pit fires of their neighbours were illegal. etc.

After the tattle involving me. Me and my friend were taken aside and were very explicitly explained to what we should do. This is our fathers and teachers in the same room. They knew we would want to fight but they said no, you simply never talk or be near that kid again. Complete social ostracizing, never touch the kid. Except after we started doing that... we'd be playing foot hockey and if he'd ask to join, we'd immediately stop playing and say we were done and walk away from him. A few times he ran to steal our tennis ball and demand to be included. The whole class got in on it. Literally nobody would talk to him or talk near him.

My brother in a younger grade did the same knowing he might tattle on them. Older grades did the same. After a couple weeks of literally no one talking to him, he would spend recess standing next to the teacher. Then he disappeared for a couple weeks. He ended up in the hospital with what I would expect to be psychiatric issues. Can you imagine being socially isolated in elementary school?

When he got back? We were all evil and should be punished blah blah. His new job was to ensure the teachers knew about every infraction anyone did. He doubled down on it, didn't work out when he went after a 2 grades older bully and got quite injured. Nothing major, serious bruising. The teachers were even hesitant to help him. Then one day he comes up to me like first thing in the morning saying his parents want me and my friend to come to his house. I was like hell to the no.

Then few days later I didnt even do anything wrong and teacher demanded us and our parents be at the school for a meeting. We were expecting suspension but ended up they wanted to make peace. His parents were very concerned but were so angry when I explained what happened. I refused to agree to any peace, that I had done nothing wrong. Which got most of the room chuckling... but after that day he sure stopped his tattling.

One very cool Japanese concept car that isn't in that list is the Isuzu VehiCROSS. It was built as a concept car (Isuzu VX), and then was pushed fairly quickly to production.

One of the choices they made to speed it to production was to uses ceramic body panel molds; quicker and easier to create than steel molds, but they wear out quicker. The life of the production and replacement parts was limited by the life of these molds.

The VehiCROSS, IMHO, was a pretty cool looking production car. And the concept they had for the topless version, VX-O2, was also super cool looking (aside: unlike the Nissan Murano which I loved the look of but the topless version I thought was one of the ugliest cars ever).

The best poker ai, as far as I’m aware based on things shown on hn, don’t consider past opponent behavior when making decisions. It’s effectively just a lookup table of hands and bets. Not perfect play but generally better than humans.
Pegs fail at the worst possible time. You can transfer or store value via oak tokens flown by trained pigeons, because that might be convenient (to you) and doesn't involve the Fed. But if someone tells you the token/pigeon method has the same attributes as a bank-to-bank USD wire, that person would be mistaken. The methods would be no closer to equivalence if one were to stamp "USD" on the oaken rounds and train the birds to collect a receipt.
Regarding your last point: One thing I did in my B2C startup that helped tremendously with this is to have all customers pay monthly up-front, with no contracts and no free trials. I think most folks avoid this because it "leaves money on the table" but it does 2 important things:

- Brings clarity to your relationship: "If you aren't finding value in the product, or think you can find better value elsewhere, you can leave at any time."
- Keeps you honest. Because you can't hide your failure to deliver a valuable product behind contractually-obligated revenue.

I'm not against contracts at all, and the larger your customer or the more involved your customer relationship gets, the more necessary they become, but even in bigger engagements I shoot for the contract to be payment up-front or in regular installments with easy offramps should the customer stop seeing value in the engagement. The important bit is that if a customer wants out, you should let them out, and it should not cause _you to lose any money or any sleep_.

I don't know how widely applicable that is to other businesses, but for mine, it's a helpful way to structure the relationship.
Still is. I don't use a `heroku.yml`. That appears to be an alternate available path, I don't know how many heroku customers use it.

What is there to disagree with? You have the choice to use your small bit of leverage and withhold your data and content contributions if you don't like the trade-offs of the deal being proffered.

> I understand that causes some operational headaches, but it’s just cost of running a social media company.

The operation cost is nothing compared to the legal liability. From the point of view of the social media company the risk and lack of flexibility downsides far, far outweigh any possible good-will upside to be gained from users.
