Code has mass has another interesting corollary: large enough collections of code tends to almost gravitationally attract more code. This results in god classes and those huge libraries of diverse functionality that usually go by the name "misc" or "util".

The mechanism for this is fairly obvious: it is usually convenient to put new functionality next to existing one because it allows you to reuse things that maybe should not be reused. The more diverse a big lump of code, the more potential future functionality is convenient to add to the lump.

This is a reason to be very vigilant against this type of accidental reuse and incohesive modules. It's a reinforcing feedback loop that needs a balancing mechanism.
> Religious texts are made up fiction that hold no more meaning in my world view than Harry Potter or Game of Thrones

I have been downvoted many times (not sure why?) for stating this on HN, but I will state it again:

It's sad that this line of thinking has taken over the modern time. We now have "science", so we don't need any of that silly stuff like "philosophy" or "art" or "religion". All can be explained through the scientific method and all other branches of human intellect are null and avoid.

Of course, this comes from the new Atheists who influenced a lot of the younger generation years a go when they started but their ideas actually stems from older philosophers who shaped the modern day thinking.

Mainly Karl Marx, Friedrich Nietzsche (who was also influenced by Feuerbach), Jean Paul Sartre and Michel Foucault.

For example, What did Jean-Paul Sartre say? "Existence precedes essence" and you can _clearly_ see how this has affected the modern Atheism mentality in the 21st century.

If existence precedes essence, then everything is relative and nothing can be objective and absolute; thus to claim things such as objective morality in the way that religion does is meaningless.

Don't forget that Sartre said: "If God exists, I can't be free, but I am free. Therefore God does not exist". Once again, if you look carefully enough, you absolutely see this in the modern world. The New Atheists for example, took all their ideas and spread them from these philosophers. What was Hitchen's famous quote? He would constantly regurgitate Karl Marx: "Religion is the opium of the people" which again.. is rooted from Sartre philosophy.

There is a great talk about this here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KQcm0Mi5To

More to it, to anyone who claims religious people are intellectual inept, I would simply challenge you to read any of the material written by the intellectuals of the tradition. For example, for Christianity they would be: Augustine of Hippo, Anselm of Canterbury, Thomas Aquinas or John Henry Newman and tell me you're dealing with someone who has suspended his critical faculties.

You are welcome to disagree with them of course, but to claim that we should simply replace these materials with math books is disingenuous.

Just my 2c.
You can't break laws in doing so. That's the news.

"Apple is doing illegal things" is not the same as "It's not in Apple's interest to be unionized". We can and should expect the 4th estate to hold people accountable when they break laws in their pursuit of more profits for the investor/management classes.

The fact that people are reading "Apple is doing illegal things in order to prevent unionization" and shrugging is indicative of the larger issue which is that anti-union sentiment has become so pervasive in the country it's essentially the default at this point.

I feel that people should be mad that Apple opposes unions so much they're willing to commit crimes to prevent it, just like I feel that people should be mad if they found out that Apple was using iPhones to create a Batman like spy network. People should be mad when companies break laws and exploit them, not shrug and go "whelp, that's just them doing a Capitalism, hayuck!"
You couldn't have picked a worse example. Food market in the US is incredibly distorted by corn subsidies. There are also strategic stockpiles and regulations around commodity prices to stop periodic free market booms and busts from causing famines. Free market speculators have once fucked up so hard that there's Onion Futures Act.

Modern food surplus is mainly thanks to the Green Revolution, thanks to advancements in fertilizers, pesticides, and machinery. A lot of that was government-lead.

On top of the heavily-controlled agriculture there is mostly a free market for consumer products (just needs to be regulated not to save costs by causing cancers), but that has innovated into making junk food cheaper than a healthy diet.

It would be substantially more expensive for us to ship the laptop in a state that is less assembled. Packaging, labor for pack-out, and increased size and weight for freight all end up being quite a bit more than product assembly labor.

> I would not say the hinge issues have been a "common" complaint. They've been the most common that I've seen

Thanks for sharing your insight, you've really clarified things. Ahem.

> especially once you factor in that people usually only go online to complain.

I've never complained about it before on their forums because once a few people let the company know about the defect, and the company gives their lame excuse for why they've implemented such a weak hinge (one handed opening!), there is no point.

It actually is nice to hear that your hinge wasn't weak as that might mean the warranty replacement nrp mentioned is worth doing. I do hope - the laptop has some nice features otherwise.

In the first paragraph:

> graphql-jit leverages this behaviour of V8 optimization by compiling the queries into functions to significantly improve performance

and
https://github.com/zalando-incubator/graphql-jit#compile-a-q...

so I guess the difference is instead of having totally generic functions that parse the query every time, instead you can call a factory function up front to get a specialised function for a particular query

and V8 JIT can make that faster
That isn't the same as 'constexpr if'. In C++ you can use 'constexpr if' even in non-constexpr/consteval contexts in order to control code generation, like for example:

template<class T>
auto foo()
{
if constexpr(compile_time_compute_value_changing_depending_on_T<T>()) {
return Type1();
else {
return Type2();
}
}

You can even change the return type of a function depending on the template parameter! Such is the power of duck-typed templates (as opposed to a strict trait system that Rust has)
I don’t know your background but the Midrash.
Is there any plans (that you can talk about) for a slightly larger model with maybe more ports?

I want one of these so bad but if you end up doing a larger one shortly down the line i'm going to be really gutted.

Edit: also any plans for a blank ISO keyboard to match the blank ANSI one?
You should consider adding an active ventilation system, which turns on periodically. This can be as simple as a bath fan on a timer with a make-up air opening elsewhere in the house.

If you are concerned about the inherent heat loss that comes with ventilation, consider installing a heat (or energy) recovery ventilator, which uses a heat exchanger to recycle a large portion of the heat while also introducing fresh air into the house.

If you are in the UK or the US Northeast you probably experience worse stuffiness because the dominant method of heating is hydronic which doesn't circulate or filter air.
The difference is that at Netflix someone who isn't keeping up will not be subjected to a 1+ year long process driven by HR before they are eventually fired. Instead they will be given specific time by their manager and if the problem isn't fixed fairly quickly, the manager can decide to let them go.

So about the same or better than the non-tech world. I've been around the block for 20+ years in a variety of industries and, in most, you might get a warning or review. Given that in the US you can typically let go anyone for any reason, a year of reprieve is quite amazing.
This is an overly reductive summary that isn't backed by any of the stats--the number of IRC users has declined well below the number of professional developers. Dozens to hundreds of open source projects were already on Slack/Discord before the explosion of Freenode, dozens more switched when that happened. It's not as simple as "professionals use IRC, gamers use discord".

You could definitely argue that IRC appeals more to the kind of developer who spends their entire day in the terminal and Vim--but that's not the only kind of developer out there! Just like many developers prefer IntelliJ to Vim, many prefer Discord to IRC. Discord and Slack both offer real improvements for some workflows, and some people value those improvements.

As an example, persistent chat is hugely valuable in a help community--I often find I don't need to ask a question at all because I can just search in the history to find what I'm looking for. Even something as seemingly frivolous as reactions is quite useful--one person can answer a question and get a chorus of 'amens' without actually having a bunch of "what he said"s in the chat.
This already exists in things like Liberapay. I've seen many projects using it.
The Circle can only really be enjoyed if read as an over-the-top satire in the vein of "if things go on this way." And the film was a great missed opportunity to do some sort of Strangelovian dark comedy rather than playing things straight.

But, to get a cloud run based setup:

- you need an elb - and this is not cheap (if you have an efficient backend, the elb will dwarf compute costs)
- no persistent volumes, and you are encouraged to use gcs or firestore
- each region requires a new deployment. No big deal but certainly not super easy to automate, esp. given the need to run behind an ELB (which you need on gcp to have a WAF)
- google sdks for some languages suck big time. Most of python sdk is not async friendly, unbelievable as it seems.

I do use cloud run for projects big and small, and rather like it, but its hardly a competitor to fly.io imho.

Except that you are literally investing a large chunk into the company you are going to work for. So while you may take that approach with your discretionary income, you are taking a different stock-picking approach joining a company that offers equity compensation. Unless you join Netflix.

Reinforcement learning implies learning though. But of course that’s a term more appropriate in the context of “optimizing agents” than in the context of “optimizing prediction models”.
why am going to pay $1100 for an i5/8gb/265ssd when I can pay $700 for a i5/12gb/1tbHDD. This whole thing reminds me of the PANDA project from early 2000s and you all know how well that project worked out.

Laptop are throw aways. At the end of their life you recycle them and get a new one. The single problem I see with all these type of total upgradable devices is that you are still locked into a single vendor. Unless other vendors get onboard and you have competition, you are at the mercy of the single vendor's pricing and existence. How good is an upgradeable laptop when the vendor goes out of business and you can't buy parts?

This is exactly where you need regulation. EU can force Google to to create sane policies for removal, or even fine Google when they do stuff like this.
Incidentally what you're describing is precisely where the term of planned obsolescence [1] actually comes from!

In the early 20th century GM wanted to sell cars but the problem is that the market was already saturated with cars that were well functioning and built to last. And so they needed to develop a way to convince people to buy another thing that does effectively the same as some other thing they already own. And so instead of working on creating better cars, they worked on marketing, persuading people that round edges were better than square were better than round were better than square. Hey, look at this new color!

I quite like the quote referenced in Wiki, describing this all as "the systematic attempt of business to make us wasteful, debt-ridden, permanently discontented individuals."

There are situations where it’s legal and necessary to drive drunk (e.g. backwoods camping accident requiring hospitalization, escaping a violent situation, etc)

FWIW, I just had a realtek USB ethernet adapter take down my network twice last week when I was trying out with an Android tablet.

It's part of a powered USB hub, and it works fine while the tablet is connected, but after disconnecting the tablet, the ethernet controller stays active, and about half an hour later my entire home network stops working. I had to disconnect the realtek adapter and reboot my network switch each time.

So, their problems are not entirely limited to mac.
One thing I dislike about Christianity in particular is how malleable to interpretation it is, making any kind of discussion with a Christian tedious. No matter what part of Bible you try to argue with, a Christian will always be able to say: "But that's not the real meaning! The real meaning is [thing I pulled out of thin air]", rendering your words moot, without actually engaging in your argument at all.

I still can't figure out how to deal with it, which is why I usually refrain from arguing with religious people. Afterall, when it comes to the big questions (like, is there a god), neither one of us can bring anything to the table - it's impossible to know by definition. And since all religious teachings are based on the existence of a god, there is no way to convince anyone of anything without first proving the unprovable. It's like two completely different sets of axioms - of course the conclusions are gonna be different, and the concept of axioms being "right" or "wrong" is meaningless by itself.
Like others said, hashcat. Doing pentest/red team stuff, you quite often stumble across password hashes that can do some pretty cool stuff if you can crack them.

Did you know that if you're on a Windows network, random machines all around you will just try to authenticate to you, and disclose the hash of the user on the system? Plug in on a Ethernet jack in the lobby, or conference room, get onto the wifi, compromise any machine on the network and run responder or inveigh, and you just get dumps of user passwords, and if you can crack any of them, its a pretty quick path up to Domain Admin on the network, which then can dump everyone's hashes.

Its a good point -- but I guess when I mean "colonialism" I mean western countries trying to exploit old power structures and values to their advantage. Which is a loosing game really -- these things fade over time.

In your example China is creating new -- however sinister -- power structures on both sides. Physically with the contested islands and fishing vessels and also economically through investment and government agreements.

So it's true it's a kind of colonizing -- but it's a very different version from the past.

Don't you DARE let the Democrats, especially during Clinton era, off the hook. That was their turn away from unionism and towards the 3rd way the told everyone that they don't need union protection because in the new economy of the digital future everyone will have so many opportunities that the unions were a thing of the past and everyone will be so well educated they can't help but make a good living.

I recently received my first framework laptop after being a loyal Thinkpad user for years. I am loving it so far. I run Ubuntu 22.04 daily and have not had any issues with battery life or the lid (but I do typically leave it plugged in during lunch and overnight). The expansion cards are brilliant and the keyboard is comparable to my old t-series. The aspect ratio is great for coding and I'm happy to see upgradeability is being taken seriously as promised. If I can get 5-10 years out of it like my old ThinkPads (all while upgrading piecewise along the way) I will be a fan for life.

But what if being in the moment at one with yourself and your environment is an addiction for you as well? I spent years in the trap he describes. Binging passive eacapes like YouTube Netflix, an even pulp fiction novels. Video games were a step up, at least they involved engagement. I also loved solo hiking, or even staring at a blank wall thinking, or not thinking. Anything to avoid cleaning the dishes, folding clothes, filling out forms, making phone calls, or any task I couldn't manage to hyperfocus on. I only escaped by getting married and having a kid. Love for others helped where love to self did not. After all, I was happy in that place, and probably still would be. But while a family is work, its also a challenge, and rising to meet it gives a real sense of accomplishment. Now that I am diagnosed as ADHD and have some mmedicine and training to deal with it, I find that using them to push through other tasks I don't like, also brings that sense of accomplishment and those unexpected rewards make it easier the next time. ADHD brains don't accept deferred rewards as positive reinforcement for learning purposes, so you either need continuous rewards, or medicine/tricks to get through. Also we respond better to negative reinforcement, so if it doesn't harm your emotional state, denying yourself things as a punishment can work, also focussing on natural consequences of failing to complete a task works sometimes, even in advance.

If you've ever seen bilberries https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilberry growing in the wild then you'll know that they grow in "poor" acidic soils. Often alongside other similar acid loving plants like heather and rhododendrons. It would not have been much of a "discovery" to realise that need an acidic soil but maybe more of a discovery that they grow better when aided by fungi.
If you can't properly do the business, you should not be in the business.

Externalizing the costs and internalizing the profits is basically theft from society.

Other examples of externalizing costs and internalizing profits are companies like tobacco companies and drug dealers externalizing the costs of the diseases their products produce (both costs to the direct customers, their families and economy at large form lost productive capacity) while they take the profits of the addictions they produce, and fossil fuel companies externalizing the costs of destroying the climate while internalizing the profits from those dependent on the form of energy they provide.

Just because a business model 'works', for the definition of maintains a profit, does not mean that it should be allowed. For an extreme and easily understood example, if society tolerated murder, then murder-for-hire services could become quite sustainably profitable, and probably scalable (especially by applying technology to the Slaughterbot model) as many people would like to eliminate other inconvenient people. That does not mean we should allow it.
