The deploy happens asynchronously from the push. Instead of having a separate repo you push to in order to deploy, the main branch of the shared GitHub (or whatever) repo just gets automatically deployed whenever there's a push (or sometimes it's triggered by a tag). So there's no feedback at all on push.

"Tooling" is a broad category.

coverage.py had its roots in 1998 or so.

You can see how primitive testing was with this example from Python 1.3: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/v1.3/Lib/test/test_b2... . That's actually one of the most sophisticated ones there. The test_md5 module required manual inspection!

setup.py is ancient. And still seemingly the best way to distribute Python packages with C extensions. (I think there were also some autoconf macros for Python dating to the late 1990s.)

Maybe read through comp.lang.python from the late 1990s/early 2000s to see what people were doing then?

The main location for the Python community was starship.python.net , which is available from archive.org. Eg, https://web.archive.org/web/19990128171929/http://starship.p... .

Oh, right? https://web.archive.org/web/20000903065954/http://starship.p... shows me that by Python 1.5 extensions were built with "make", not "setup.py".

Whoa! Look at how to install the LLNLPython Distribution (the fore-forerunner of conda; it included Numerical, CXX, PyPDB, PyHistory, RNG, and Graphics).

Perhaps this is too ancient to be meaningful.

Try looking for the Python SIGs for a given topic, going back to the history via archive.org, and seeing what the package were like?

It's a lot of work.
Until the day they don't.

This kind of thing is inherently un-provable. You can have a method that works stupidly well for decades, and then it stops working. Building a model that provenly (in the mathematical sense) works with X% efficiency would be akin to building a free energy device.
It is ignored because for the vast majority of customers, the intermediary is not a problem. In fact, the intermediary is usually an asset. I know when I buy something with my credit card or PayPal, that payment processor has me covered if the seller tries to screw me over.

The people who hate the intermediaries are the sellers, because they don't like losing a small % of their sale to a payment processor. But sellers do not have the power to change this. They have to accept payment in whatever form customers are willing to provide it in. Customers aren't going to move away from PayPal and credit cards without a good reason, and so far crypto has failed to provide that reason.
Looking at this guy's CV, seems as though the industry has decayed into the electronic version of a direct mail operation--one social/video company buying another for its customer list. A thinner ethnic version of Karl Rove has been let go. Forgive me if my eyes remain dry.

> but see it as to high of a risk to put 10k into something that could go to zero but it also could go to 100k or even more. That does not make much sense

You could walk into a betting shop and put 10k on all kinds of things that will most likely go to zero but have a finite probability of going to 100k or even more.

Q: How do you suggest determining the odds of success? Most of us can't invest in every 10k opportunity (and even if we did, we might not win out in the long run)

Ask HN: How to Estmate the Value of a Website
I recently received a received an offer to purchase a website I run. The website in question has no revenue but is a good candidate for ad revenue.

I have been unsuccessful in determining what kind of ad revenue the site could generate so that I can decide if the offer is fair or not. Using the various online tools which estimate values, I am getting estimates of $500-$2.2m for the overall website value. Obviously this is less than helpful and absurd on either end of the range. The site in traffic receives six figure daily users with ~10m of engagement time which makes me think ads would have decent monthly revenue.

Does anybody have advice or tips in determining how much a website is worth?

Here is my weird tin foil hat theory that explains, like, a lot of what's been going in the world in the past twenty years.

A significant fraction of young single men feel a deep compulsion to indulge in risky behavior with a potential high reward in order to make a name for themselves or earn their place in society. I don't know if it's genetic, cultural, both. But for many young dudes, it's not enough to simply work a good job and enjoy their leisure time.

Men like this are the free radicals of society. If the society can't find a healthy productive outlet for their drive to compete, take risks, and seek fame and adventure, then they will just do outright dangerous shit with potentially large collateral damage.

For most of human society, hunting, exploring, dangerous jobs, and war were significant outlets for this. They gave men a way of doing something courageous that their culture held in high esteem.

But today, we have domesticated animals, explored every square inch of the Earth, automated all of the risky manufacturing and resource-gathering jobs, avoided large-scale war outbreaks (and used technology to reduce military casualties and fatalities). There are simply less paths available for a young man who feels like he has nothing to take pride in unless he succeeds in some bold risky adventurer.

For a while, videogames functioned as a simulated output for that impulse. I think that's why many gamers flipped the fuck out during Gamergate when they felt that their avenue to satisfy that urge was being invadaded and taken from them.

It was, I think, a driver of the rise of the alt-right, doomsday preppers, and Trumpism. This impulse elect a wildcard as President, burn it out down and start over because in a world of chaos, there is maybe an opportunity for the bold.

And now, I believe, much of the crypto world is driven by that exact same impulse. Young, overwhelmingly male, "crypto bros" desperately looking for some unexplored frontier where they can build something new and forge an identity for themselves.

The problem is that there is no there there. It's all a house of cards. No actual new value is being created, so it's just crypto bros competing with other crypto bros in what will likely end up being a zero sum game (except for all the unfortunate other investors who get sucked in).

Even if crypto all collapses, the core problem will remain. These dudes will just find something new to slake their thirst for risk. Hopefully it will be on something less destructive to society.
That's guitar barre chord level difficulty
In theory, stocks can produce dividends. If a stock does not currently yield dividends, presumably the company is reinvesting that money so that the stock might yield higher dividends in the future. So stocks are a productive asset, at least in theory. Of course, in reality, speculative investment does contribute to the value of the stock, but at least it's notionally backed by something.
You'd have to be pretty naive to assume Musk would let trolls run Twitter into the ground.

The most likely upshot of Musk's hints is that Twitter will stop censoring or adding warning labels to "misinformation", the classification of which is highly subject to partisan biases.
> has been mostly de-platformed by now

Completely inaccurate. No one side has been deplatformed in aggregate. A few individuals have been suspended permanently for violating TOS. They should have been removed earlier, but were considered special cases due to their prominence. It amounts to Twitter removing its own inhibition on enforcing its TOS for certain prominent users.

If you want a hard-right-wing heavy experience, you can certainly get that on Twitter today (and two months ago) by following the hard right wingers. Most of them never left. The subscriber count jumps you heard about when the emerald scion announced his Twitter purchase? Very small percentages.
Funny that Vine was essentially TikTok and they killed it.
The vesting / payout theory makes no sense, firstly Twitter vesting at that point would be quarterly, so the company would be saving at most 1/16th of what those employees had already vested from their initial grant.

Secondly, it's the employees who would have the incentive to leave, not the company to fire them. Assuming a typical 4 year vesting period, it's right at this year when their compensation would have _dropped precipitously_.

Thirdly, the second individual had been at Twitter for more than 4 years, and unless they left and came back (doesn't look like they did), they'd still be vesting their original
equity grant. The amount of time they've been at the company isn't even common between the two, so I don't see why you'd use it to establish a theory.

That is clearly not true. What you own, is something worth X amount of Y, where Y is what other believe it is worth.

No. A bunch of ultra-rich VCs were bored of having too much money and pumped up a crazy web3 thing.

I somehow wish the VCs would lose their money instead of millions of kids.

Isn’t this correlation? Could this bio marker simply be caused by being born into poverty to a mother who smokes and drinks for example?

From the Mayo Clinic

“ Risk factors
Although sudden infant death syndrome can strike any infant, researchers have identified several factors that might increase a baby's risk. They include:

Sex. Boys are slightly more likely to die of SIDS.

Age. Infants are most vulnerable between the second and fourth months of life.

Race. For reasons that aren't well-understood, nonwhite infants are more likely to develop SIDS.

Family history. Babies who've had siblings or cousins die of SIDS are at higher risk of SIDS.

Secondhand smoke. Babies who live with smokers have a higher risk of SIDS.

Being premature. Both being born early and having a low birth weight increase your baby's chances of SIDS.

Maternal risk factors

During pregnancy, the mother also affects her baby's risk of SIDS, especially if she:

Is younger than 20
Smokes cigarettes
Uses drugs or alcohol
Has inadequate prenatal care”

Crypto Crash Could Be Contagious
They were practically the only cyberpunk movies with any significant impact. And what have we had over all these years on the gaming front? CP2077? Deus Ex? Shadowrun? And a handful of indie games? Sure there were a bunch... in the 90s.

So... one big cyberpunk movie every 10 years? Games every few?

Marvel, fantasy, all that other pop culture garbage sees new movies on a seemingly monthly cadence.

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely adore cyberpunk as a genre and warning and seethe at watching the optimistic yuppies drag 'punk' through the mud with their 'rebellion against negativity' garbage. But cyberpunk is not a popular genre.
I like this even better than my initial expectations of a story about actual cobras that somehow involved bubble tea.
Yes. It's been a lovely week so far.

I'm mad as hell that people got taken in by it. Increased suicide rates, broken families, lost homes, etc. It is infuriating that the people behind this are going to walk away without a single scar or regret. It's been a giant con from the get-go and it sucks seeing so many lives ruined over it.

However I will dance on its grave and laugh as it all burns down. If it wasn't going to be put down it would destroy itself eventually. I'm here for it.
What surprised me the most about this story is that apparently nobody tried this obvious experiment in the last 50 years. It seems basic to supporting a settlement on the Moon.

I assure you, my guy isn't worried about COBRA.
All- some of you are clinging onto the paternity leave. I can't quote whether this is true, but at both Fortune 250 companies I worked for, you were paid out for your entire leave even if you weren't coming back after. So I would bet money he is still being paid for the whole leave, but if someone sees something else, please correct me. There is incentive to pay it out since one annoying side effect can be a person gone for 3 to 4 months suddenly calls 2 days before leave is over and says "I think I am resigning." It's better to pay the full leave and have them tell you that from the start so you don't waste 3 months.
So memory access will now be 1,000,000,000 times slower than register access.

Which implies a maximum speed up of what … 10% ?
Maybe we could train a model to tell us the best way to prepare.
Because anyone would be able to improve it.
While it is true, I should think that it should be better to be up to the end user to decide what they want, and that it should not assume that everyone else knows better instead. If the user writes "http" then it is http, if the user writes "https" then it is https, etc. (What it should do if the suer does not specify the scheme is a different question, and different users may have different preferences (which should probably be configurable). My preference is that it would treat the URL as relative instead of absolute in that case, but that is probably minority.)
We will all pay for it. All these gullible idiots strain the economy and hurts everyone when this happens.
Puh, I tried so hard with that website. I don't know, design and marketing is just sooo hard for me.

I remember learning about the title change, and the reason, and thinking “I know what a philosophers stone is…” because I’d come across it in my nerdy reading somewhere. I didn’t think American children would have had a problem with it. I’m kind of offended that publishers, television and movie producers, record executives, etc keep pulling this kind of garbage. We aren’t stupid, and I’m willing to bet that more often than not people are willing rise to the intelligence of a work rather than shy away from it.
I myself was a big believer in Bitcoin and its ability to transform internet transactions. However, I believe Bitcoin and other crytocurrencies got taken over by get-rich-quick MLM pyramid schemers. It can't be a useful blockchain until it shakes off all these get-rich-quick people and settles around some stable value (no, 10% MoM gains is not stable).

I work heavily with enterprise products. In my experience, when you're selling an enterprise-ready product it's a good idea to QA all public-facing code, even sections of a public website.

This is because I have found many enterprise customers are more interested in maintenance (which can be pre-assessed by looking at support and QA experiences) than they are the actual product.
My go-to method to strip formatting was Win+R, Ctrl+V, Ctrl+A, Ctrl+X (or C), Esc. This opens the run box, pastes the text (without formatting, because it's the run box), selects it, copies it, and closes the run box. It can be done quickly and entirely with the left hand.

Then I found this neat little program [1] that will paste without formatting for you with a single hotkey.
