I wouldn't call it "manual memory management", but "explicit memory management" (e.g. to have complete control when and where memory allocation/freeing calls happen, and that memory management is "obviously visible" in the code).

Explicit memory management is very important when performance matters and must be predictable (for instance in "soft realtime" applications like games), you want to get the expensive memory management calls out of the hot paths as much as possible and the language must provide the tools to make this possible. When seen under this lense (that memory management should be explicit and not hidden from the programmer), there isn't all that much difference between C, Zig, C++ or Rust, all those languages provide the features for explicit memory management, even if some also provide optional features for automatic memory management.
IIRC Circle was planning to get a full bank license to have USDC being backed 100% by reserves at the FED. That could nuke the traditional banks because who would want to hold their money as IoUs at an institution with single digit backing when there is no upside compared to holding it in USDC.
We're doing something similar using Prisma.
We have a script that queries Postgres database periodically and generates a Prisma schema for the tables/columns.
Then the script diffs previous schema with a newer one and if any changes are detected, it creates an SQL migration and commits it to the git repo.
That way we have a history of all changes in a very readable way, and an always up-to-date Prisma schema and TypeScript typings for the DB client.
> Quantum systems are not even deterministic in theory, let alone practice. And ironically quantum systems are fundamentally linear.

It's important to note that the parts of quantum mechanics that are linear are also fully deterministic - the Schrodinger equation predicts the evolution of the wave function of a system with exact precision (as do the more complex equations of QFT).

The part that introduces non-determinism is the non-linear adjustment of the Schrodinger equation that you have to perform after a measurement - the Born rule, also called wave-function collapse. Here the complex-valued wave function of a system randomly takes a single real value at the moment of measurement. It does go back to its deterministic linear evolution afterwards though, but you have to perform this non-linear adjustment.

This non-linear adjustment can be interpreted in many ways, but without it QM doesn't agree with even the most basic experiments, so one way or another it is a vital part of the theory, rendering it non-linear overall.
> SMS, for all its security shortcomings, is at least something that the vast majority of people understand already.

But of course SMS suffers of the same problems as naive use of TOTP: Lose your phone, you're locked out of every account you have.

So in the worst case, TOTP is as bad as SMS. But, with some awareness/education TOTP is far superior if the user doesn't fall into the trap of attaching the TOTP seed to a phone.

i.e. for the aware user, TOTP is far better. For the naive user, TOTP is no worse than SMS. Thus, always favor TOTP.
How is it not the market price? Even if you subtracted platform fees that doesn't really change his point.
It's called UX, which is for experience. Website speed is part of experience, but gets pretty much no attention. It seems UX is limited to aesthetics but not entirely user experience.
I first tried rust in 2015[1]. It was my first serious attempt at rust.

The language was not small whatsoever at the time. It was not fun.

It is the bridge that provides the REST API, not the bulbs.

Having a REST API means the complete setup is easier to tinker with through a defined protocol and not having to resort to hack with the bulbs or any zigbee/low-level things.

I used this to play a bed time indication sequence on multiple bulbs in the living room from MIDI notes.
You should also check out http://aosabook.org/en/index.html, they've collected information on the architecture of a wide range of open source programs.

Seen exactly the same, sadly not just in one shop. Half completed stories would be split into part 1,2,3, or worse: renamed to "Attempt to implement...", just to make the burndown chart align at closure of sprint and give people the pleasure of dragging items to the done-column. Didn't get better when some higher up scrum master once had the brilliant idea that all stories should be max 2 story point large, otherwise need to be refined further. Together with a company-wide policy that a story point is roughly equal to one day, for all teams, because it made the high level jira dashboards easier to aggregate.

Not sure what it was meant for, since with this practice it would tautologically just show headcount * days in a sprint. More like time reporting rather than measure of progress.
When will people realize how silly it is to conflate the logical flow of their front-ends with the DOM tree? Why are you all letting the logic of your programs be dictated by where you want to place visual elements on the page? Just because you don't feel like a real front-end developer if you don't use React / Angular / Vue / any of the other "component"-based frameworks?
Could you tell me what you think of guides on allaboutberlin.com? I care a great deal about readability, but I’m not sure if I’m doing it well. I made the font a big bigger on desktop this week. Now I wonder if Open Sans was a good choice.

I really hope we end up with a low-grade widespread heat net (say 30 degrees celsius) using this kind of waste-heat, combined with heat-pumps to actually bring hot enough temperatures.
My favorite musical composition story is Beethoven's Fur Elise. He started writing the song for his student, whom he was in love with. She wasn't very good, so the song was easy.

Then he found out she got engaged, and he made the rest of the song super difficult so she could never play it.

You can listen to the song and hear when his heart breaks: https://youtu.be/CQIDLhBJ2y4
They have an exemption to the bypassing DRM rule on software, not one stopping DMCA takedowns.
While I agree, being among the most densely populated areas in a country that's mostly empty ain't much to write home about. It's basically just apologism. I know it needs to happen everywhere, I just have a particular disdain for SF city politics.
Seriously come to Europe, you are basically forced into 30+ days of vacation and Heathcare is free, no need to save in case of an illness or fear losing your job and having no healthcare. This means more chance of saving for a house deposit. I am in the UK and as long as you move north of Birmingham the house prices are not stupid.
Abstract Concepts Are Represented in the Brain Across Cultures and Languages

Great questions!

1. Yes schema and data via "copy on write". This will let you instantly create test environments, backups, and run CI/CD. There is a long video here that shows a prototype with GitLab: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVCN9X-vO1g&t=1s.

2. We don't have this feature at the launch, but Matthias van de Meent
is already working on it. We will publish and RFC and solicit comments from the community.

3. We are working on two: regional read replicas and consistent multi-region writes (together with Dan Abadi who helped design FaunaDB). Former is much, MUCH easier.

4. An obvious one is a time machine - we want to allow you query at LSN (or timestamp). A less obvious one is templates: you can start your project with a pre-populated database. We will allow you to create and publish such "templates". Disclaimer - it might not be called templated when we ship it.
The article misses a key bit of information TF needs when making a plan:

4. The previous Terraform configuration

This is effectively stored by state.

We need this because if a resource is removed from the new config then Terraform needs to be able to delete the existing resource from the world. If we don’t have the state then Terraform must either:

1. Not delete it from the world

2. Or risk deleting something not managed by Terraform

If everything were managed by Terraform then perhaps we would not need state, but this is not realistic in my view.
> If you switched all the CPU-only servers running AI and HPC worldwide to GPU-accelerated systems, you could save a whopping 11 trillion watt-hours of energy a year. That’s like saving the energy more than 1.5 million homes consume in a year.

That is a bold claim. It seems to me they simply assume all necessary code would trivially be converted to run on GPUs.
Cricket is changing for many reasons, one of which is AI
Yeah. It is time consuming though. Thankfully our blame tool works well at my job.
> I don't know what you graduated in.

You don't know I graduated at all.

I'm not saying either way, but if I did, it had zero utility in my software career. Credentialism on degree subject matter for people making mid-career moves is misguided at best.

So what you are saying is that it helps by requiring AWS to contribute any man hours(that cost money) they've spent on the project.
Having a relational database where you're charged purely for the calls you make is a game-changer.

All of the relational databases I looked at in the past required you to have a gateway node on at all times, which is far too expensive for a simple hobby project.
Ironically a downturn might help with that culture. The problems you mention have been exacerbated by the "tech bro" attitudes of twenty-something or maybe thirty-something seniors and founders working in businesses that have been more about winning the next funding round than making a good product that produces a sustainable profit. That gravy train is probably off the rails for a while now and it's possible that we will see more interest in hiring or retaining older devs with the experience to actually get results. We might also see less emphasis on job-hopping very frequently for career growth and that will make hiring and training up juniors more attractive.
I've seen rumours he bought them on credit. Easy when you have no intention on living long enough to pay it back.
Good article.

I have a different opinion on how to Read/Study/Teach Mathematics. Contrary to popular belief, Maths can be a "spectator" sport. There is a very big difference between Reading/Understanding (to a certain extent) and Doing Maths. The latter is not a necessity unless you plan to be a Mathematician while the former is a necessity for every educated individual in our Scientific Society. To paraphrase Richard Hamming's quote; "The purpose of Mathematics is Insight, not Numbers".

Mathematics is a Language. Thus it is important to become fluent in the Notation of the Language first. The Notation is used to express Concepts (eg. Sets), Relationships(eg. Functions) and then build Complex Edifices(eg. Linear Algebra) using them. The metalanguage of Maths is Logic. The purpose of Maths is to Describe and Explain Nature (notwithstanding "Pure Maths"). As V.I.Arnold said in his essay "On Teaching Mathematics" (https://www.uni-muenster.de/Physik.TP/~munsteg/arnold.html) - "Mathematics is a part of physics. Physics is an experimental science, a part of natural science. Mathematics is the part of physics where experiments are cheap". Hence always look for Applications of Maths in various fields. Abstraction should only happen after studying a lot of Concrete Examples else it becomes incomprehensible. Thus Read lots of Maths books, get comfortable with the notation, follow the worked out examples closely making sure that you comprehend every step and finally if you want to, do some exercises.

PS: I love this dig at 'Murica in the article :-)

P: For example, the author is not looking for a solution like this: everyone lives in Independence Land and is born on the 4th of July, so the chance of two or more people with the same birthday is 100%.
I tend to offset expensive purchases with cheap ones. Expensive chair, cheap as hell desk. Expensive monitor, cheap computer. Expensive keyboard, cheap mouse. You can get a really nice workstation if you choose the expensive parts deliberately for the ergonomics.

I don’t want to speak for you but you said one or two things that echo with me: by hyper-optimizing my workstation to be the most comfortable place in my house I think I sort of feed a tendency to hide from difficult parts of life by just working too much.

I also think you’re onto something about activity, particularly outdoor activity being the best counterweight to that tendency, I just struggle to get an active routine going from a cold start.

Usually if I’m active I can keep it that way, but whether it’s C19 lockdown or a death in the family, it’s very easy to get knocked back into that sedentary state.

Any of that resonate?
I wasted twenty minutes because I don't have a degree in music theory to understand most of what the pretentious twatwaffle was saying.

You could get those rifles for like $700 each. So like 2 grand for three. The reported 375 rounds of .223 ammo would be $150 or so.

The truck could be leased or financed. Very possible for a diligent saver.
Puppet also has PuppetDB, which is functionally similar.
I haven't found a good way to handle resources that were created outside TF. Like a EC2 instance running in staging to debug an issue, but then forgotten about. They don't exist in TF state or config so TF simply ignores them.

I've tried terraformer[1], but I can't tell how well maintained that is (it failed to get my creds, I had to modify the code to fix it, and then it crashed with an obscure error).

Anyone have a good approach?

1. https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/terraformer
Sure. So far, we just precompiled a few popular extensions, and they are available for installation. Ultimately we want to provide an option to bring your own extensions e.g., by specifying a docker image based on our base image. But that is some work on a security front: with a custom extension, you have access to the corresponding Unix user and can construct malicious WAL, send requests to the control plane, etc.

We don't know. But we built it anyway because it may be that.
That culture has definitely taken root in some ways, but I wouldn't count on it during a downturn. The idea is what will the hiring/candidate pools look like in a tech recession, so a premise is that many people who can presently get an engineering job then cannot. There are so many software programming jobs right now that the market created bootcamps to fill the demand, but it's not like mature engineers necessarily have fewer interpersonal skills, and suddenly there are many more of them all trying to get jobs.
Some users called us Snowflake for OLTP, some others Snowflake for Postgres. Obv b/c of separation of storage and compute.
Neumann KH-120 would fit that range somewhat and they are great. Solid aluminum case, stable as hell, extremely good with spoken word and language.
IMO CF (and dependent APIs that use CF servers internally) is strictly worse since it has state, but that state lives server side and the only way to influence it seems to be to mock around with destroy and rebuild and hope for the best (in my experience it can easily get into a deadlock). TF at least directly talks to the provider APIs like S3 and EC2 and you get their error messages when something goes wrong. When TF locks itself up I know how to deal with it myself without needing anyone‘s support (delete the respective key in the state backing KVS). That being said I agree with OP - making it stateless would be even better.

Author is more asking the question, probably also thinks “it needs state” could be valid.
"They're interfering with our... free exchange with retailers", you say, while literally complaining about someone else's free exchange with retailers.
maps.ellenhp.me has only a IPv4 address and it seems to be hosted on digitalocean, which supports IPv6.

I think that if you don’t want to invest a lot of time into learning web scraping and money to get a pool of residential, or even better mobile, proxies it’s easy to quickly get good results with web scraping API like https://scrapingfish.com
They have good blogposts, for example, for how to scrape public Instagram profiles: https://scrapingfish.com/blog/scraping-instagram
"None" state store definitely would be good for one of our case - automatic preview deploys for pull requests.
Statefull approach works good 99.9% of time but rare errors like inability to destroy resource because of cloud provider issues cause that you need manual interventions - i.e. resource cant be created as not managed by state etc.
Even rare errors are not rare when you have 20+ devs :-)

That needs some manual fixes i.e import state, killing resources etc but not all devs has access rights or knowledge to do this.
So web can’t converge and popular frameworks can’t converge. What’s the answer then, or what sense that makes?
If you’re willing to “out” yourself publicly here, and assuming it’s not against any rules, you could post a link to your GitHub profile if you’ve got some open source work out there. Can’t promise it’ll help, but a lot more people read these comments than comment themselves…

…a LOT more.
Can the git repo that the terraform config lives inside of serve as state? For example, one commit ago this part of config was there and now it’s gone, showing temporal intent that it should be deleted in real life as well?
Well this is a doozy: so you’re saying they are both equally awesome as opposed to being individually awesome in different ways.

What a time to be a developer.
And at the very least with waterfall they thought about their requirements, now it's: shove 3 sentences in a JIRA and off you go, clairvoyant developer!
Is it possible to get sales details of hardcopy books from Amazon ?
We got off easy in last recession broadly speaking, obviously it wasn't the same for everyone, but lots of companies invested heavily in IT (or at least claimed to be doing so to their shareholders) in order to cut costs elsewhere.

Whether the same happens this time around is certainly debatable. Perhaps, cuting IT to investing in sales and marketing will be in fashion this time around.
> provably wrong

A distributed system that employs a consensus mechanism where service providers compete by wasting as much electricity as possible is provably less expensive that a centralised system where providers compete by trying to become more efficient at providing services?

Then prove it.
One idea we have is to allow running future unreleased and beta versions of Postgres. Do people want this?

You might want to look into https://cycle.travel/ (my site!), https://brouter.de/brouter-web, Komoot or RideWithGPS - all do OpenStreetMap-powered bike directions.

Getting bike routing right is really challenging, partly because often there genuinely isn’t a good route, and partly because standards and infrastructure (and OSM mapping practice!) differ from country to country. I love the challenge and the feedback from users when it works well, but it’s a massive task.

Money is at least understandable. It is a finite resource after all. What I really don't get is employers who are still pushing for other conditions that will deter good people from applying - things like annoying processes or insisting on hybrid working instead of allowing fully remote if there is no clear benefit to those policies.
I'm still learning the basics of ML, but I assume the advantage of rhombus instead of just having 200*5 layers is training time? Would it have other advantages?

Cool stuff! Is PostGIS support difficult?
I think there is a misunderstanding: when I'm talking about "name" I mean the "name" stored by the cloud provider, which is typically (arbitrarily) chosen as the idempotency key by stateless implementations.

When you change the name of the resource that will, obviously, break the connection, that's a big no-no when writing Terraform code.
Ford is targeting production of 2m EVs by 2026 which Tesla will probably exceed in 2023.

For the F-150 Lightning, they're aiming to build 150,000 per year, which is virtually nothing. [1]

GM is targeting 1m EVs by 2025 which Tesla did in 2021.

Honda and Toyota are barely even trying.

Kia is publicly targeting 500k cars by 2026 so they won't be competitive.

Hyundai is targeting ~1.9M EVs by 2030 which is a number Tesla will eclipse next year.

VW has stated they will overtake Tesla by 2025, but barring some magical construction capabilities that allow them to build factories in absolute lightning speed they also will not have the capacity to overtake Tesla.

So at this point it doesn't really matter what any other manufacturer builds, they're simply not building enough of them.

That is not evening mentioning Tesla's massive lead with thousands and thousands of charging points. Who is going to catch up to that?
