> Time will tell if it's feasible to also type-check mutating queries.

What do you mean by "mutating queries"? When the underlying schema changes? For instance when a new column is added to the `video` table, or if `video.id` changes to a varchar?

Haven't dived in deep enough yet, but is this using the DB engine's explain query, or I guess my question is how does it interrogate the underlying db/schema if the schema isn't supplied as code in the setup? Or at least, how would you envision all that happening?
No it's not. You can be fired for not going to work or doing your job. Your company can change your job roles and responsibilities

This is a real problem with the American corporate model: employees don't get board representation. If you were working with VW in Germany, this would never fly, as the worker's union get seats on the VW board. In fact, this is why Germany is pushing back on Tesla's move:

https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/elon-musk-tesla-musks-office...

> ""Whoever does not agree with such one-sided demands and wants to stand against them has the power of unions behind them in Germany, as per law," Birgit Dietze, the district leader for IG Metall in Berlin-Brandenburg-Sachsen, said. Employees at Tesla's plant in Gruenheide, Germany, elected 19 people to its first workers' council in February, setting the plant apart from others run by the carmaker in the United States and elsewhere without union representation, which Musk has fiercely resisted."

As far as practical matters, if they're going to do layoffs anyway then push for severance by not quitting and negotiating politely i.e. will they pay for a hotel room, make accomodations, etc. Legally, if they're not acting in good faith that's a strike against them, but labor protections are pretty weak in the USA.

Perhaps, but that's not new. IIRC all major version bumps of CodeMirror have essentially been full rewrites.
Why do so many scientists tend to be utterly dogmatic when new research challenges their fundamental assumptions?

Their close mindedness terrifies me because they are increasingly relied on in decision making -- like vaccines, for example. I thought science is centered around an admission of infinite ignorance? At any moment we can be made aware of new information that completely changes our understanding of the world because the truth is not hardwired into us. They are more and more looking like a clergy caste for the post-God state.

Talk to a lawyer in your area, and don't quit. Make them fire you.

Whether you will get severance really depends on the company and (more importantly) where you live. None of us can answer the question for you.

I know that, where I live, I wouldn't have any recourse or rights to severance if I were fired by Tesla for not relocating. State laws here basically say that the company can fire me at any time for any reason as long as they don't make it absolutely obvious they're doing it because of a protected status (e.g. race or age). But that's where I live. Not where you live.

Big companies should definitely face bigger legal trouble for their crimes. But what they were doing wasn't a business that they messed up. They ran a scam that provided a pirate stream and charged money for it. Good riddance.
> outside of some grumbling in private conversations I've not heard much complaining.

I mean, where else would you hear about it? Are you expecting random strangers on the street to just angrily scream at you about increasing energy prices and inflation?

Imho one of the biggest giveaways was when German supermarkets started mentioning "inflation" in their discount prospects, first saw that like 2 months ago.
Something working out well up to the present moment does not mean that it is the best possible solution. Most stuff is garbage and could be improved. If you want the most secure system, you minimize the amount of stuff that’s in it and you increase the quality of that stuff that is there.
I imagine another america: one where every able-bodied teenager is trained to use a gun, how to clean it, and store/operate it safely. And they spend some amount of time in a militia group (the leaders can keep an eye to identify the folks who seem dangerous), and ultimately, every able-bodied adult keeps a gun at home for homeland defense.

I have no idea how it would work in practice, but I think it might go a long way to address how people operate with guns.

Just a perspective for other readers:

I recently moved to the Bay Area. I've lived quite a few places around the world and US. Some I consider the nicest in the world (Tokyo) and some I don't consider nice at all.

I'd formed my view of SF based on comments I'd heard like these on HN, and was prepared for the worst when beginning to visit for the weekend.

Having now had several excursions into the city including places considered not that nice like the Tenderloin or Mission, I can't see how it's any worse than any other US city, and in fact consider it nicer than most other large cities in the US I've been to, like NYC and Chicago.

Maybe it's because I only visit on weekends and don't live there, but from the perspective of a frequent visitor it seems really nice to me, and I didn't go in expecting that nor am I a person particularly biased towards having rose colored views of things.

I wonder if maybe people in SF expect it to not have the same problems as other large metros like NYC. I'd be curious to hear from someone who has lived in both and thinks SF is "apocalyptic" what experiences made them think that.

I think in the Bay Area there's a large number of people who don't realize (or have chosen to forget) how inconvenient life can still be on average around the world and even the country, compared to the idyllic circumstances they've created here (especially in the valley). It's what makes it so easy for them to come across as judgemental or tone deaf when discussing problems at the national level.
It's not a 10% drop in staff. It's a 10% drop in salaried employees. So the numbers aren't as big as most are reporting.
I personally don't like the idea that I'm selling all of my personal financial data to the highest bidder, who I don't know, nor do I benefit from. That might not be something that bothers you, but it bothers me.
Since when are land costs 'sunk costs'? Do you imagine land owners can't sell their land to a higher bidder? I'm talking about Canada and the U.S. here, not about countries which prohibits private land sales without prior government approval.
A "failed city" and "$#!+hole" with some of the most expensive housing in the country? That can't possibly be a seriously-intended claim. If SF is in such obvious trouble, why is it that everyone still wants to live and locate there?

> Many suspect the unexpected call for in-person work was a way to get people to quit and avoid paying severance for layoffs.

I think they are 100% correct. IBM did the same rug pull on remote workers years ago (despite pioneering it) and AFAIK it was just a way to reduce headcount. I would just move on and find a company that sees that remote work is the future and here to stay.
Yeah, that's something people sometimes do in the form of protests. But I think almost everyone realizes that there's no easy way out this time.
I had the pleasure of visiting the DDR Museum in Berlin [1] last month. I expected it to be about all the atrocities/hardship/etc but it was mainly a pleasant description of day-to-day life.

The thing I found the most amusing was the description of nude beaches. Apparently it was a point of tension between the Soviets and the Germans, but the Germans just kept getting naked and the Soviets gave up trying to police it. I can't find any great online descriptions of it, but this [2] seems to do a decent job.

Researchers Achieve ‘Absurdly Fast’ Algorithm for Network Flow
Is this a case of a silly law on the books or was there an incident where someone was blocked from installing a particular type of glass? I ask in good faith because all fifty states have a myriad of silly laws on the books or silly things codified into their state constitutions, most of which are not enforced. The issue for me would be if a silly law were being selectively enforced.

If this is a case of a silly law on the books that is easy for the governor to solve. "For every one new law you want me to sign, the state must nullify at least two of the laws on this list of silly laws." Or in the case of a state constitution everyone follows a process to amend or ratify changes to remove or negate the silly statutes.
Maybe, but that's part of the larger question of what moral failings lead to an individual becoming a spammer. Perhaps spamming is so repugnant, and so low-yield once you get into it, that only the very un-intelligent remain as spammers, a sort of "dead sea effect" or a manifestation of Dunning-Kruger.

In any case, it seems like only real research would settle the question.
I think this is the correct answer. If you are willing to move say you will but need a temporary accommodation for your specific reasons
Yes, there is a flat 10% fee for each sale to cover processing costs and service provider fees, but no listing fee or any other hidden fees, and the buyer pays shipping at checkout. So if you sold a $20 shoe, you'd receive $18. The buyer would pay ~$25 or so with tax and shipping.

The prices on products can be 1 of 3 fixed conditions: "Good" ($15), "Great" ($20), and "New" ($25).

Kickflip's payment library is called Fern (based on Square) and is designed around marketplaces, giving users the ability to spend from their current active balance, and it allows the developer to cut and track commissions.

That's definitely true. I've used the Tesla chademo adapter and it was a beast. Its heavy, awkward, and the latching mechanism is difficult to fully engage.

The Tesla passive solution to the locking mechanism on their CCS1 passive adapter is as brilliant as it is simple. Just a little springloaded bar that locks the cable onto the adapter if and only if the adapter is inserted into the car. Then the car uses its regular adapter. This works well with CCS1 locking.

The other end of the spectrum are things like the setec adapter or the evhub adapter. Both of those don't have vehicle side locking with CCS1, which is a violation and a potential hazard.

> systemd starts services in dependency order. The author makes it sound like systemd just randomly shuffles the services each boot for fun.

Systemd has a dependency graph which you can influence, but there is no guaranteed execution order and it does change between boots.

That's an acceptable thing or a bad thing depending on your use-case.
Your response is quite confusing. On one hand, you’re proving my point that consumers are overpaying regularly. Medicine prices are a meme at this point, and if it were easily solved we wouldn’t hear about it as leading causes for non-adherence.

> Are there patients who are over paying? Absolutely

But then, you dismiss all of that by implying this is a useless exercise because patients who need low cost meds are getting them.

Which one is it?

Somehow I think there is some irony, that although FreeBSD lost to GNU/Linux in installed based, there is a growing number of MIT/BSD/Apache OSes targeting the IoT space like Azure RTOS, NuttX, Zephyr, Mbed.

And bare metal runtimes like Arduino and ESP-IDF.

Kind of proving the point GNU/Linux partnership was a lucky one.
i do embedded programming as a hobby for high power rocketry ( altimeters, orientation sensors and, someday, control, and other stuff ). Micropython is great for what I do and the repl is especially handy (i just start a screen session and there it is). I've tried lots of different boards but settled on the stm32 Feather from Adafruit. Adafruit's circuit python is really handy because they have a lot of drivers already written for common sensors and other things. Heh it was a bit of a shock when i realized in embedded programming you read need to read a datasheet and write your own device drivers.

I originally tried C using hardware debuggers and the whole 9 yards. It just took too long to get the toolchain setup and all the init required to get to a blinking LED (the helloworld of embedded). I also tried platformIO which looks very very cool but my boards weren't 100% supported. Next was the stm32 ide which helps you get a lot of the low level config off the ground but it still seemed the long way around. I also tried some of the hardware OS's like FreeRTOS but, again, not my cup of tea and "operating system" means something very different in the embedded world than what i'm use to.

i have a pi zero w and it really has my ears up too because i can run the same micropython there, can ssh to it directly, has a file system, runs linux etc. I have a really convenient pwm control board with an i2c interface so the non-realtime operating system on the pi zero isn't so much of an issue for what i do.
I actually meant blocks on the file system level, meaning that you don’t have to rewrite the whole MP3 file once the play count field is there. Of course that might still mean that more has to be rewritten on the flash storage level, but that would be independent from the MP3 file size.
> There is also the moral hazard: who decides who is safe to have a gun - with careful work you can take guns away from people you don't like.

Yeah, that's my biggest problem with the "in the wrong hands" wording, far too often those words have been code for "in the hands of black people".

Pretty much any seemingly reasonable requirement we come up with can be manipulated this way. It's a lot like voter IDs, where the problem is that you can get them at a DMV for free, provided you can take off of work and drive 50 miles to the nearest DMV because the republican governor shuttered the ones near black neighborhoods.

Unfortunately I think the only solution is going to come in the form of applying restrictions to everyone. As someone who believes in the second amendment for a variety of reasons, and who owns firearms, I've come to the conclusion that this is preferable to the status quo.
Also, how is it that you'd pay $200 in tax on a $450 taxable benefit but only $100 if you were just paid the $450?

That's very false. Python or C# are significantly better at imperative programming.
How to set yourself free with ritual
Additionally it should be mentioned how crazy imaging tech got lately. USB2 with 480 mbit/s is at the physical limit near the speed of light. This is why it easily fails in reality if you have the slightest disturbance. Faster busses like USB3 basically use more lines even if we still call it serial...

If you would transfer raw image data (rgba) you get what for full hd images? Around 7 fps? I don't even want to see the bus for modern smartphone cameras that now seem to casually have around 100 megapixels...

Changing nomenclature is not at all enough toward actual aid and a solution, but it's not contrary to those ends either — i.e. I don't foresee a situation in which city politicians call the homeless "bums" while actually allocating adequate resources to helping them.

Brother, wait until you find out that Trumpism and Wokism are not the only ways to run a government.
The cost of housing a non-functional (drug addicted or mentally ill) unhoused person with the services they need is around $100k/year. Jailing them for a crime they commit is actually cheaper, we aren’t saving money by keeping such people who commit crimes out of jail (regardless of whether that is the right thing to do or not).
Lived in SF in 2014. It’s way worse now.

Back in 2014 you had a mesh of artistic and tech. This lead to a great social scene.

Now the artists were priced out and they moved to Oakland. The SF tech workers left in droves. What’s left is the homeless and crime.

Much of the city still hasn’t recovered from covid. Soma and fidi are in shambles. Feels like only 1 out of every 4 places is still in business.

However Silicon Valley (San Mateo & Santa Clara county), San Jose, and east bay are all thriving relative to their past
Here's a more contemporary article: https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2021/12/chrome-users-beware-ma...
What I don't get, living in NYC, is why it's so much safer (seemingly) than SF. Yes, we have homelessness and crime, and it has sharply risen during COVID, but not to this point.

NYC is a much bigger city, politically very liberal, and our politicians aren't exactly amazing, so what's different?
It’s not that bad. It’s normal to have your car window broken overnight or to see people shoplifting openly at the pharmacy or grocery store. In certain parts of the city there’s fairly open drug dealing & use. And the homelessness is heartbreaking.

Violent crime / theft happens - but not at a noticeably different rate than other large cities.

Still the most beautiful city in the US (imo) and the natural beauty 30 min outside the city in any direction is insane.
> For all the data driven ethos that execs tout, this is one area where decisions seem to be made at the whim rather than derived from data.

Having worked at places that take the data-driven ethos to an extreme, there are very straightforward pitfalls to ignoring other kinds of reasoning. Those other kinds of reasoning have pitfalls too, obviously (hence the popularity of data-driven decision-making). But this is exactly the type of thing where I wouldn't expect data to be especially helpful. People keep trumpeting studies claiming to measure productivity increases from WFH, and I do believe there's some signal there, as I've been a big proponent of hybrid workplaces my entire career.

But the idea that productivity can be measured in a meaningful, complete way, and that that applies broadly to every company, particularly creative knowledge work, is facially ludicrous and not (yet) supported by the data. A decade from now, researchers run careful comparative analyses on companies that went full-remote, along with trying to build narrower measures of productivity, and hunting the data for natural experiments. The idea that we already have data-driven certainty around this is laughable.

As an example of how this works: I work at an applied research firm, and as much as I enjoy some of the QoL changes from full-remote, there is no question that my and my colleagues' ability to collaborate creatively has significantly suffered. How do you meaningfully measure the change in our "productivity"? I'm sure we're all shipping more code, but since when is more LoC better? How do you immediately measure the cost of a system with less innovative experiments, and how do you incorporate stochastic and time-lag factors?

These factors are very opaque to industry-wide data-centric analysis, so we can't be dismissive of other forms of reasoning, particularly those that understand each data point more intimately (if less rigorously).

"installed for dubious reasons by a doctor that specialized in this particular type of leadless pacemaker"

That's the problem with a fragmented health system. A lot of doctors are specialists in a certain procedure and want to repeat their pet procedure on every patient they see. I saw this with my ex who had chronic leg pain. Most of the doctors we met just wanted to repeat what they do every day (and makes them good money). There are only a few doctors who have a wide knowledge of the area and can recommend a treatment that actually fits.
most employment in the US is "at will" and has no real contractual obligations. you can quit at any time (and be fired at any time), for any reason. severance is essentially a benefit, completely optional, although it is required by law in some mass layoff situations regardless of at-will employment.
