> good and bad code has been written in every language

Yes indeed. There seems to be no limit to how bad code can be written in any programming language :)
Wise words, Gigachad.
Eh, I appreciate GP's honesty. I can see where the user is coming from, and the user also acknowledges the potential disadvantages later in time.

I used to spend a lot of time, hours a week, at university just hanging out with people instead of working hard on my career (the opposite of hustle culture). The vast majority of these friends entered a relationship and/or moved far away, and I don't see them anymore (we've also become different people since then). I've since focused more on my career—no longer taking time just to hang out—and I'm subjectively happier. I still make a best faith attempt to treat others respectfully, help others when I can, and also make time for my partner and care for her, but I genuinely like reading, watching a good film, or doing a solitary movie more than investing a lot of time in friendships, especially when they're likely to be temporary and transient.

I wish friendships would last longer, but in my experience, it takes two to invest in one (and the vast majority of people don't)—though in contrast, romantic and familial relationships are more likely to last. I've learned a lot more from reading and exploring artistic works with the time and energy that I could have spent hanging out. In addition, career work will help myself and my family secure a comfortable life in the future, whereas I wouldn't realistically expect friends to materially help me out that far in the future (assuming we'd still be in touch and geographically close).
This right here. People claim tax law is bad but disability law is almost as bad in that no reasonable person could be expected to know all the details in the laws.

Even experienced disability attorneys sometimes mess up.

This reminds me of the term "compersion", used by the polyamorous community to describe the feeling of joy from watching a loved partner fall in love or lust with another partner. Antonym: jealousy.
Pretty common in my country [Oceania], it stays out all night only going back for fuel so they supervise any calls they get, as it's already out.
Consider instead, then, Mississippi. Here is the second paragraph of their declaration of secession:

"Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery-- the greatest material interest of the world. Its labor supplies the product which constitutes by far the largest and most important portions of commerce of the earth. These products are peculiar to the climate verging on the tropical regions, and by an imperious law of nature, none but the black race can bear exposure to the tropical sun. These products have become necessities of the world, and a blow at slavery is a blow at commerce and civilization. That blow has been long aimed at the institution, and was at the point of reaching its consummation. There was no choice left us but submission to the mandates of abolition, or a dissolution of the Union, whose principles had been subverted to work out our ruin."

In other words: they hold that slavery is the foundation of their economy and commerce; that black slaves in particular are the best suited for labor, by virtue of some racist justifications; and that the institution of slavery is under imminent threat of abolition and therefore they need to secede in order to maintain the slavery status quo.
I absolutely love typescript!

But recently, I found out about ReasonML, an ML-family language transpiled to JS that, from a distance, looks like something I'd like over TS in every aspect except one (third party typings): much more terse algebraic sum types(tagged unions), more terse code in general, incredible compile times, and named arguments[0].

To top all of that, "reason-react"[1] claims that "Reason syntax and language features are a better match for React programming patterns", and I am very inclined to agree already.

I'd love to hear folks' experience with ReasonML, or pointers to blog posts such as these where companies write up their experience.

>> But I do definitely know this: some time in 8000 BC the creators of Gobekli Tepe buried their great structures under tons of rubble. They entombed it. We can speculate why. Did they feel guilt? Did they need to propitiate an angry God? Or just want to hide it?’ Klaus was also fairly sure on one other thing. ‘Gobekli Tepe is unique.’

> I think it'd be rather hard for a hunter gatherer society to realistically cover such a large area under tons of rubble.

I'd also be interested in knowing how they know the creators of Gobekli Tepe where the ones who buried it. Maybe their neighbors didn't like them, or maybe it was their now-farming descendants moving the temple to somewhere better suited to growing their crops. These sort of sites tend to have several generations of societies using them, often hostile to the previous cultures (eg. the vandalism of Egyptian temples by their later occupants).

If a (ml) managing director publicly says he is not willing to „return to office“ is he really speaking as an individual? Or does he speak up in the name of his team?

There is in fact no "track" with commercially competitive fusion-generated power at the end of it, tritium or no tritium. It's great that plasma physicists are being employed and enabled to do research, but that could be done much more cheaply and effectively by not spending on ITER.
Initially I only used the left-hand modifier keys.. then figured this is pretty terrible for the hand, requiring a bunch of stretching. I tried to use the opposite-hand modifier after that.

Now, I use a custom keyboard, so that I can avoid using my pinky finger as much, and can put the modifiers on the home-row.

I'm going to call BS. Sure, being single is better than being in a bad relationship. But, like the majority of music, movies, novels have to do with romantic relationships. Pretty much all of psychology tells us for most people relationship is what makes life worth living. Maybe you're an exception but for most of us it's what we crave.

i'm in my mid 50s. Since 18 I've had about 4 years of someone in my life. The other 30+ years there's been no one. For almost that entire time I was told "it will happen". Well it didn't. It's hard to stay hopeful at this point. Things I wanted (my own kids) are close to zero chance at this point.

I wanted to grow old with someone. Too late. I'm already old. I used to think you meet someone relatively attractive in your 20s, maybe 30s and you grow old and ugly together but your familiarity with each other and your shared memories of younger times keeps it going. Well, that's too late too. Looking on the dating sites it's all grannies and grandpas
In Ethos, the seculars are a caricature of what is known as "White Turks", i.e. the well educated middle class Turks with Western values who live in affluent neighbourhoods. Many people felt offended by it because it's also a political message from the conservatives about the "elites" being disconnected from the rest of the population. There was a culture and class war and the conservatives won, only to reduce their conservative values to clothing and alcohol, becoming the new "White Turks" who are detached from the rest of the society.

Anyway, the Turks and the Greeks are much more similar to each other than let's say, the French or the British. When a Turk and a Greek meet in western Europe they find relief as they understand each other much better than anyone else. Turks and Greeks are huge frenemies, in a sense that on state level they have never ending disputes over territories and things can quickly heat up but on social level they are almost like the same people and they love each other. When a disaster strikes, Greeks would be among the first to help the Turks and vice versa.

In Turkey, there's also Left&Right but the leftist were slaughtered during military coups(which happen every 20 years!) in the past, there's no sizeable movement by the left. Instead, the society is divided by many other things like ethnicity(Kurds vs Turks) and religion(sunni muslims and alawi muslims), cultural alliance(west v.s. russia among the seculars), values(liberals v.s. nationalists) or any other thing, including even cuisine!
Takes less for the latter.
With indoor farming, you save on transportation and refrigeration, which is also energy intensive. Gotham Greens is doing something similar with salad mix, and they're supposedly profitable. That said, lettuce is a lot less calorie dense than strawberries, so I'd imagine that indoor strawberries will always be a luxury product.

I'm in my mid 50's and a number of peers from different circles have all come to the same conclusion: they want to create intentional communities of friends to age with. One couple purchased several acres of land and has two friends living in a tiny house with them. Another friend is trying to raise capital to build the type of apartments/dormitories that the majority of US city-dwellers inhabitied in the late 1880's early 1900's: ones that shared a common dinner table and parlor for entertainment. Another has a B&B that also serves as co-housing for 8 adults from their mid-50s to their 70's, and they share chores, which has been together for over a decade.

I find this to be a uniquely western culture issue, compared to eastern asian cultures and indian subcontinent where multi-generational families mean you're never really alone.

The author seems to have fallen into this void. I'm sure even with everything I've mentioned above it is still possible, but intentional or filial, the family must still grow and add new members to prevent this unique type of loneliness. I don't know how my friends' intentional families will persist over the decades as they start to die, but they seem to be committed today.

The sites and their importance were known before the current issues in Turkey. Some of the publicity now may well be to encourage nationalism, but the reality is we probably would have been hearing about it 10-20 years earlier if the site hadn't been in a war zone.

People have different views of what matters, or how to do things. Whatever your views, there are going to be some people that agree with you, and some people that disagree.

Broadly speaking, when you lead something, the people who will step up to lead alongside you will be people who mostly agree with the position you take. Obviously. Why would they align and invest precious years in something they totally disagree with? It would be dysfunctional to have a leadership team in any organisation made up of people who have hugely different opinions about everything at a fundamental level.

Of course, that group has disagreements on stuff. We spend a lot of time talking about the things we disagree on, but we live with people we broadly agree with.

So from the outside it may look like the leadership team of any company are highly aligned. If you have been at Canonical, you know that in the leadership team we have lots of hard debates and discussions, all the time, in search of the best. You also know we are all working to the same goal, which is to help people consume open source cheaply and safely, at scale, across all kinds of compute.

So, here's how I interpret your comment. You saw a group of people that were broadly supportive of a position I hold, and which you disagree with. Sure, you disagree, and that's fine. Calling them sycophants is just finding a nasty word for people who happen to be aligned on something you disagree with.
Eh, it just sounds like precise terminology to me. If they'd said: "I like my friends but sometimes it's more draining than fun to hang out with them. I dunno, maybe I'm hard to please. It's just so much work to find and keep friends," I'm sure no one would bat an eye. I read it about like that, but just described in technical terms.

I'm an engineer and I often find engineering terms applicable to non-engineering topics; that doesn't mean anything about how I look at life other than that I've considered my situation from a number of angles.
Python's style guide prefers words separated by underscores, but makes an exception to match the prevailing style of the module. `removesuffix` is consistent with the naming style of the rest of the `str` methods. `str` is such a fundamental class that it likely predates the current style guide. (All of the `int` named methods seem to be new to Python 3.)
Yes. Growing anything but very shade loving plants requires about 1.5 million watts in LEDs per acre. That is why most demos use lettuce, it will grow in abyssal lighting conditions and only requires a tiny amount of nutrients since it is all leaf with a like 90% water content.

This seems like a reasonable explanation, given that it fits my experience as well. My work Macbook Pro often is quite laggy when JAMF decides to scan everything (i.e. for several minutes after booting up and periodically throughout the day afterwards), whereas my Linux personal machines are almost always quite snappy, even with games running at fairly high performance settings through WINE at the same time as Firefox, discord, sometimes VS Code, etc.

LTO can inline these just fine, provided the object files contain the necessary info (i.e. the IR or assembly from static archives, which is how -flto works for clang and GCC). I even tested this using a copy[1] of OpenBSD's qsort implementation a few weeks ago, verifying that both the sort algorithm itself as well as the comparator were inlined, just as would happen with C++ template'd vector sorting.

[1] I had to use a copy of qsort because the compiled libc qsort lacks the accompanying info necessary for LTO. But in theory libc and shared libraries in general could ship critical routines with the necessary metadata required for LTO optimizations. (IOW, a cross between a dynamic and static library.) Fundamentally this is just a toolchain issue, not a language issue. AFAIU, Rust code works much the same way, and its comparator functions tend to be inlined because Rust effectively compiles using LTO (and heavily relies on these implicit optimizations), except that because all Rust code is compiled statically, the necessary IR is always available. The same would be true of Go, but the Go compiler doesn't optimize as heavily. FWIW, AFAIU the C++ standard doesn't guarantee a templated sort comparator would get inlined, either, even if you're using a lambda. But this is optimization is extremely likely when the sort algorithm itself is template-expanded and the comparator is simple--as almost all would be.

Loving families are easy to idealize from afar.

How many families actually fit that profile? I’m not entirely sure.

This is not a jaded attempt to say the pursuit of relationships or family aren’t worthwhile. I just want to set some context here for those feeling lonely, for those who feel like they are standing outside in the cold on the street looking through windows into warm living rooms full of people with warm feelings toward each other.

I’m the only one of my siblings who has consistently been on speaking terms with either of my divorced parents. Both of my divorced parents consistently tell me they wish they could get away from their current spouses but feel it’s too late start over. Only one of my 3 siblings isn’t currently fantasizing of leaving their spouse. The mix of who in the extended family is currently speaking to whom is always in flux. Of my friends in very long term relationships that I know well enough to know if they are happy or not, about half are somewhere between resentful to outright miserable. My grandparents divorced when they were in their late 60s and went on to live much happier separate lives. In the hospital before my grandfather died, he insisted my grandmother should absolutely not visit him.

Again, I am not saying seeking loving relationships and building a family isn’t an extremely worthwhile goal for everyone. Even given all I’ve said so far, I hope I can build one someday. It just bums me out to see people in threads like this idealizing what it means to find a partner, to have a family. It can be extremely good. It can also be extremely bad. Joining with others is not a magic spell that, on its own, fixes your life.
Same! My cats greatly prefer when I'm at my desk working compared to personal time because my work laptop (a Macbook plugged into a monitor and kept shut) gets so warm and they love to sleep on it.

personal anecdote:

first job out of undergrad, small shop whose software you probably haven't heard of but have almost definitely interacted with if you live in the US: phone screening, remote technical session with 2 hours (own time) to write 3 functions, on-site interview given a laptop, an hour, and instructions to write a toy API then asked a few questions about solution and general concepts

second job, cold emailed a professor asking about openings for a programmer/research software developer, asked to clone and build a project repo and sketch a simple (<1 hour) feature

third job, also research software, online application, 1 hour video interview, entirely qualitative, no coding component, having work from the previous role on Github likely obviated the need for a technical session

As I get older (30 now), and perhaps spend more time alone, I feel that I do not mind this process as much as I thought I would.

Just as usual, I am able to read books and spend time with my dog. I'm only weary of the fact that I do talk to myself out loud every once in a while and there is the possibility that in due time, if it is not already the case, my lonesomeness may eventually be misinterpreted as madness.
