In Poland you can use "podpis zaufany" to sign a file, which also records the date of signing. The only thing you need is a bank account which was verified using your physical ID. The best UX, I think, is with PDF files - others are encapsulated in an XML Base64 container. Everyone can verify a signature with no account necessary.

There's no shortage of good-perf languages with a GC: F# would be one prominent example that sounds very similar to what you describe.

The usual objection is that it requires a .NET runtime, whereas Go produces a single self-contained executable. But .NET can produce self-contained executables these days.

Indeed his videos are amazing. My recommendation though would be to start with the "beginner" video -- which is completely 2D but at least gets some ideas across. Then watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGtv-dBi2wE which isn't his but introduces how you get 3D out of fragment shaders. Finally just drink from the firehose -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cfe5UQ-1L9Q is fantastic, yes it's five hours but worth it. (Definitely come into that familiar with the idea of raymarching though... the first few minutes start off super basic but it goes to eleven real quick.)

I don’t know why you think that’s true “in general”.

If you have a team with a senior member it, in general, what would you expect that team member to do? How are they different from the other team members?

They are not senior because they’ve been there the longest. That’s stupid. That just makes them the oldest worker, not the most senior.

I expect them to have more responsibility for making sure the team delivers whatever it is they do.

If the team does tax forms, then they’re more responsible for ensuring the forms are correct, and timely, than say, a junior accountant on the team.

If the team produces code, they’re responsible for making sure the team produces the correct, maintainable code in a timely manner.

If the team is two people, maybe that means “write lots of code”, but if it’s six people, it’s much more likely, in general, to be, making sure the rest of the team is doing the right thing at the right quality. Mentoring. Checking. Meetings. Documentation. Protecting the team from politics.

Why? …because seniority is about responsibility, and if all you do is write good code, you’re not accepting the responsibility for anyones effort but your own.

Obviously, it’s not solely your responsibility; you share that responsibility with the other team members depending on seniority. A team lead, for example, and other seniors.

…but, I don’t care how many years experience you have: 0 responsibility for anyone other than yourself makes you a junior developer.
Short answer: Yes, but it's preferred to do something a little easier.

In Common Lisp, it's much easier if you prefix. It would totally be possible to do something like

[A x y]

to be an array accessor at indexes x and y by defining reader macros for the characters '[' and ']'. And then one could define the reader macro for the character 'ᵀ' so that

ᵀA

expands to the transpose of A. Then you could write

[ᵀA x y].

If you didn't like this prefix thing, you could instead be more elaborate with '[' and parse something more complicated with postfix notation.

> What if we pretend we can go back in time, and create a transparent, gracefully degrading plain-text format that is trivial to build viewers and editors for?

Actually, the idea behind SGML's SHORTREF feature is exactly that: yöu can define char sequences consisting of newlines, tabs, or any sequence of chars not already interpreted as markup delimiter, and gave SGML replace those into eg a start- or end-element tag or whatever, in a context-dependent way so you can cover most of markdown, or CSV, or JSON. And we have to go only as far back in time as 1986 when SGML was published as an ISO standard after a decade or so of reaching consensus. It's not exactly trivial though, but not that hard either by today's standard.

Beyond SGML, what's really puzzling to me is that we keep on throwing mud against a wall to see what sticks, and every comp.sci. generation seem to reinvent everything from scratch without consideration what came before. It's especially paradoxical considering SGML legacy as a text format is directly in front of you as HTML, and materials on SGML and HTML are broadly accessible. Why invent text formats for the long haul if nobody bothers reading?
That's the Grafana philosophy but there's a trade-off between creating a customizable framework and creating something that just works out of the box with zero configuration.

We've taken the zero config path for Robusta (https://github.com/robusta-dev/robusta) but we're focused only on kubernetes so it's a bit easier. Over time we're hoping to make it more and more pluggable.

There are some costs associated with that protection; to put it mildly. It isn't like the regulators protected the system in 2008-era with their prudent de-scamming, they protected it by handing out money to incompetents.

There will be a lot of pain from scams and immutability. It still seems entirely possible that in a few decades crypto as a whole will be more respectable than the US dollar. The US have been a reliable custodian only by comparison to other governments and there are obvious advantages to crypto vs currency backed by guns and printing presses.

Although I do agree things like Luna are certain disasters in the making best avoided completely.

For myself, based on over ten years' experience with Android, and quoting myself:

[T]he OSes themselves are BDSM nightmares. Because the apps aren’t trusted (very rightfully so), they can’t share storage, so there’s next to no interaction between applications. Coming from Unix, the land of pipes (literally streaming data between programs to do useful things) this is … staggering. Apps themselves are aimed at the minimum viable user, economics are painful, and the result is that a million minimally useful buggy pieces of shit bloom, with no way for users to assess which ones don’t actually suck manure through a straw. (Spoiler alert: they all do.) User is denied root. There’s little option for adblocking or firewalling on-device. ...

Touch: the fact that a click and a drag cannot be reliably distinguished … just fucking kills me. Android’s had ten motherfucking years to sort this, and hasn’t figured it out.

Hardware vendors are a fucking disaster. Everything I’ve ever had or used from Samsung has been a massive disappointment (from electronics to appliances), I consider the brand a warning label. Post-purchase OS upgrades from any vendor appear to be exceedingly rare if at all available.

Android has been a privacy disaster from day one. ...

Termux is the one Android app that does not specifically suck.

(Einkbro is rapidly approaching that status, credit where due.)

Tablets, preferably e-ink, are quite good for reading textual material, if the display is sufficiently large (8" is about the minimum, I prefer 10 -- 13").

For virtually any generative / productivity tasks, a laptop is preferred. Sketching is a possible exception, though desktop + Wacom tablet is probably better.

It's the OS and application ecosystem, plus the pervasive surveillance state, that have me utterly turned off tablets.

I don't think my views are widely held. I do think they're valid.

The use of LOVE is the biggest limiter IMHO, simple stuff is missing because a game engine does not really cater to text editing in any meaningful way. The copy and paste keybindings are wrong on Mac for instance. Selection behaviour is a bit weird and non-standard. I am not even sure you can paste from an external text source etc. Everything clearly has had to be custom made.
What if these are just a symptom of a despicable human behavior called "hoarding"?

You can argue some hoarding is motivated by fear, but a lot of it is motivated by greed. I know friends working in the construction business claiming some people just upfront bought whole stocks cement during the pandemic for example.

Probably a lot of these purchases are done with funny money because money was being thrown around for cheap. So I'd imagine people would ask a higher price because funny money allowed to pay those prices, all due to the greedy hoarding behavior - at the end of the funnel people were paying stupid prices for housing for example, so why not?

That same friend also said that they simply had to go and buy it from the secondary market for a premium.

How do you solve this problem in the future? Are quotas the solution?
I've often just wanted a "simple SVG" subset with just basics, as you describe, omitting all the fancy stuff that tends to lead to surprises and incompatibilities. For example, as the format for a very simple icon editor.

Do you know if there is some formal way to 'declare' such a subset (something to do with XML/namespaces maybe?), or if there's any existing standard "simple SVG" format that someone has already defined? Obviously I could just informally stick to a subset by avoiding whatever features I don't want to use, but I think it would be useful to have a formally defined subset, and to be able to scan an SVG to detect if it's within the subset or not.

Credit to Apple, their devices do seem to be supported for a long time (5--8 years).

Contrast Android, where all but one device I've ever owned was abandoned by the vendor from purchase.

The exception is the Onyx BOOX. I've had four updates to that in a year, including one addressing issues I'd reported personally. (Earlier devices were HTC and Samsung. HTC was annoying, Samsung are pathological, and I refuse to touch any of their products ever.)
They are likely testing individuals
There's a reason most deployments moved away from that:

- Sometimes you need more complex actions to update a service than just "update the code". Migration scripts, dependent services restarts...

- It's fine on one server, but the more you have the more difficult it gets

- Changes and dependencies accumulate on the server, which might cause weird errors or necessary configurations that aren't written down anywhere.

- Too easy to say "let me just modify this thing here in production" and end up with bug fixes that are only applied on certain machines and certain versions...

I get the "let's do things in a simple way again" sentiment, but it's not like the complexity is there because people like complexity.
I love it when someone writes an app to scratch an itch they have. That's why I got into software in the first place, great work!
> That’s why mentors are so important, and the team you work with is worth so much more than a couple bucks in your paycheck. Don’t accept a junior position where you’ll be working alone, if you can help it! And don’t accept your first role (or, honestly, any role) based on salary alone. The team is where the real value is.

Couldn't agree more.

Of course, with today's attitudes towards us olds, and the average term of employment as an SWE being about a year and a half, I'm not so sure how big a role mentorship plays.

I think that having folks be responsible for their code, from napkin sketch, to deprecation, is a great way to teach us how to do good code. That's been the case for me, for almost my entire career. A quick shufti through my code repos will show the results.

> Instead of the above syntax combining Markdown and JSON, I could use a Unicode private use area to define bytes that mean “line,” “circle” and so on.

That would not be a good idea because of contention, as you may wish to use those code points for their meaning in some icon font.

You’d be better to use HTML elements, which is the proper way of embedding such stuff in Markdown. (Look, even hijacking code blocks as an extension mechanism is a controversial technique.) And then SVG, or at least a subset of it, becomes an obviously excellent solution; the {"p2":{"x":141,"y":85},"mode":"line","p1":{"x":34,"y":44}} example becomes:

<svg viewBox="0 0 200 100">
<path d="M 34 44 L 141 85"/>

Agree it's not as easy as simple as storing wood in warehouses, but the issues with sand have to do with a more permanent shortage in global supply and are not directly comparable to lumber markets.

> This one isn't at all surprising because it was clear from the outset that the "shortage" of lumber from the outset was artificial ie supply was being held back.

Not really, or rather, the issues were/are region-specific. There were multiple problems, the chief one being that lumber yards have closed down. A sudden-ish shift towards construction usage of wood combined with an excess of raw wood from storm damages [1] then led to a crunch effect at the lumber yards, they were the bottleneck.

On top, there was a serious shortage of truck drivers across Europe caused by the pandemic and shit wages, which meant that even if yards had capacity there was no way to get trees into lumber yards and finished wood products out of them.

You’re right about the signage. Elizabeth line looks like the tube, feels like the tube, but technically isn’t the tube.

So there’s no signs to other tube lines. Just signs on how to get to the tube which feels weird because you thought you were already on the tube.

It would be better to explicitly spell out directions to what tube lines are available.
Worth noting that Apple introduced Focus in the last version of iOS that added custom behaviours around this. If you message someone who is using a 'work' profile for example and have decided to ignore messages, the messaging user will be informed before they send the message that you have notifications disabled.

This information is also available to developers, so other chat apps could let messaging users know that a user is 'away' for example.

I quite like the idea of having an 'away' profile that I can set that is automatically mirrored across all my devices and all the third party apps I use honour the setting and make use of it, so anyone trying to contact me is told that I am away and won't reply.

Sadly I don't remember which medication I took, but I once took something to help with anxiety. Side effects were amnesia and hypnotic effects, if I recall correctly. I remember it was some anxiolytic.

The thing is, for like an hour or two, I was able to remember hours and hours and hours of dreams. All appeared in front of me. I could get them like a chain, first one, then another that happened in the same location (be it real or imagined), and another, and another... It was a pretty awesome, if a bit overwhelming experience.

The great thing is that now I know all the dream memories are still in there. I'm not able to remember them normally, but they are there.

Sadly, as I said, I have no idea of what I took.
