It's a question of incentives and accountability.

PMs aren't usually accountable when their shortcuts come and bite the team further down the line. Developers feel the pain instead.

PMs won't be honest with the business that they sold an undercooked product. Need to suddenly scale up that "pragmatically" designed database? I know in my heart that too many PMs will _never_ manage expectations with their superiors if they can harangue developers into overtime, out-of-hours alerts or death marches. It’s asymmetric risk.

Don't take that personally. I’m sure you, individually, do the right thing. But my experience is that PMs / POs / team leads as a group can be bad actors. It's just the way incentives are structured for middle managers. By the time the problems of your "pragmatic" architecture have emerged, your typical PM / EM / team lead will either be working on another team, doing another job, or talking about "tech debt" as "just one of these things", a mysterious natural force, visiting your team stochastically like a freak summer snowstorm or an outbreak of measles.

_That_ is why developers are cautious. Do you _seriously_ think that you are the only person in your team who understands "commercials" or "cost benefit analyses"?

Experienced developers do, which is why we've learned the best strategy in the long run is to avoid offering too many concessions to people without skin in the game.
Engaging with the existing literature would be a good start.

If you were interested in studying the relationship between bias and funding you might do a survey of published papers and articles on the subject.

If you can identify some measurable criteria that can be used to rate how "green" a paper's funding is then you can use that as an axis and compare the surveyed papers to reveal trends.
Dropbox is also terrible toward people who don't want to use their service, in a way that paying users are conveniently unaware of. Someone shares a folder with your free account? That counts against your quota. Once it exceeds your quota, Dropbox will yell at you for exceeding your storage limit, when all you ever wanted to do was view files people have shared. Want to keep a folder available offline on your iPad? Better pay up.

I appreciate them for being an independent company that is doing its own thing in a gradual way. The internet needs more of those. But it would be miserable if they became a major player with their existing contempt towards end users.
You are merely constructing an idealized authoritarian elite of scientists whom nobody can question because allegedly their craft is too complicated for mere mortals.

Sorry, but no.

A lot of people have an academic education, for example, and are capable of reading scientific papers. You have to be able to make a solid point that other people can verify. The last couple of years have already shown that institutions are also of little use.

Don't confuse science with scientific institutions.

The concerning element is not the marijuana extracts but the additives they are suspended in, which are generally unregulated and undisclosed (the cannibinoid analysis is there because it is legally mandated, and is the basis for tax assessment). Unfortunately, this recent Chicago Sun Times investigation[1] also demonstrated that even our very strict testing protocols in Illinois are apparently ineffective, with almost none of the tested products matching the lab results printed on the package.

What is the concept of an outlier when you’re trying to measure if the earth is hotter than it used to be over a fixed length of time?
If your hottest temperature 500 degrees, then sure, you may have an outlier that needs exclusion. But if all your coldest days are the same and your hottest days are 10 degrees warmer, your median might not move much. But that doesn’t make it look good for life on earth.
stale2002 read your comment correctly. stale2002 responded to it correctly. No one is arguing with you about what the GPL says.

Let's do an experiment: You need to hit yourself repeatedly in the head with a mallet until you pass out.

Are you currently hitting yourself with a mallet until you pass out? No. Just because something is written doesn't mean you need to do it. If I incorporate your GPL code, distribute it, and don't license my code under the GPL, that means I'm distributing code without a license (or breaking a license). Unless I've crossed the line for criminal prosecution (which is far from anything we're discussing here), the worst-case consequence of that is .... damages.

If I've crossed the line into criminal prosecution, then the consequence is damages and jail time. I absolutely STILL do not need to license my code under the GPL.

(In most cases, it's a good idea to license code under the GPL, though, both due to branding/reputation damage, and since usually that leads to an out-of-court settlement; but those carry no legal force being that)

There may not have been any. There's some evidence that catnip response is not just context-sensitive in that the same cat a few days apart might respond differently, but also that catnip insensitivity might change over the span of a few years.

Haha I'm not sure if you were being serious, but the workflow you just outlined is the clunky part of SSM. The pre-requisites are getting all the IAM roles and permissions setup (no mean feat), installing the agent, configuring it with keys generated by another user, and getting the connection information back from the aws console. This promises to be a lot easier to setup and authenticate, install tailscale, login.
> a giant mud-ball of for-loops, while-loops, variable assignments, and other wonderful side effects.

Woah woah. This is literally the kind of complexity grug wants to avoid. Simple doesn't mean using the fewest language features or keywords, it means simple to read, follow along, reason about, and debug. Abstractions can aid in that (like using a third party library!), until they are imported/implemented aspirationally and thus often unnecessarily, and sometimes resulting in abstractions for abstractions, selective application of the abstractions vs fresh implementation, etc (...and thus AWS)

At no point does grug argue that you should stick to what you know, he just says you should trap your complexity in crystals ie literally suggesting to use the Good Abstractions, When They Make Sense.

I wasn't arguing against the use of solar panels, just pointing out that they don't reflect light as much as the natural environment that would have been in their place. This whole discussion is purely academic because the proportion of earth covered by solar panels is negligible.

I worked at Dropbox briefly, and I asked this too. The answer was basically that they tried it (multiple times IIRC) and every time it ended up being a net negative on their ARR since it siphoned enough of the user base away from their other options. I think, also, the sort of user that uses less than 2TB isn't their "core" customer profile (think photographers, videographers, artists, and musicians).

I was bummed, but for a publicly traded company its a little hard to argue with the logic.
Don't you think it is weird that people who try to do their own research end up in the "happy to ignore science" camp, as you put it? I don't think they "ignore science", they just realize it is a lot more complicated and messy than the narrative of the scientific consensus wants us to believe.
These chips (ESP32-S2,S3,C3,C5) all support Bluetooth LE but it looks like the original ESP32 is the only one that supports Bluetooth Classic. Does anyone know what is going on with that? Classic is what most Bluetooth devices actually use, right? Phones, earpieces, all that kind of stuff. Amirite?

(Correction: ESP32-S2 has no bluetooth at all, see dontknowmuch's response).

> If I wanted a different object I'd make a copy.

In the explanation I posted, you do make a copy to get a different object "you use your C++ 98 copy constructor to get another string".

The problem happens because both strings share the same bytes to represent the text "IR Baboon big star of cartoon" as part of the COW optimisation. But my reference can scribble on this shared text.

I don't see how your get_some_config is similar at all. Notice that with C++ 11 strings, the copy constructor gives you a deep copy of that "IR Baboon" text and so my references can't smash your string.

Interesting angle! We're showing that people fall for generated language not necessarily because generated language is all that good, but because people are looking for the wrong cues and are thus bad at identifying generated language.

Back to the scissors, it would be like someone trying to tell you that their scissors cut marvelously, but you ask yourself whether the paper they are demonstrating them on is strong enough to prove that. Making something for cutting doesn't guarantee that it will cut and doesn't explain why.

I even suspect that in the early days of scissors it was all that clear why they worked. Similarly, we don't understand much about GPT-3. It was trained to predict the next token in a sequence, not to create an illusion of personhood. But somehow it does so, and we're trying to understand how and why.
The poster seems to be trying to draw a parallel between his comment and an infamous post that he made nearly 15 years ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9224), or maybe just to make him feel bad. I personally don’t think the tones of the two posts are comparable at all. His post has been quoted out of context for the last decade or so, though, so it’s not surprising to me. (Ask yourself, what did “app” mean in his comment?)

Several people seem to expect that he would be embarrassed by my comment or regret making it, but it honestly doesn’t bother him at all. I, HN, and even the world have changed a lot in 15 years.

Anyway, he's pretty satisfied with where life has taken him. He's certainly not going to sweat someone combing through his post history in a vague attempt to dunk on him.

YES! Imagine trying to do all that while maintaining and growing the source project. This is why I've never been able to get there with my project. Instead I have to make deployment buttons where DO makes all the revenue and their broken referral system doesn't even give me anything back.

One shortcut with all this is just to allow maintainers to surcharge a premium with deploy buttons.

This is downright silly -> there are numerous markets where consumers were getting duped for years before anyone found out. The market for cosmetics is highly competitive and yet it's full of counterfeit goods containing horse urine.

Besides what DannyBee says about termination being a lot cheaper and easier when you can tolerate small losses (which is most people):

Big infrastructure often orders the cables pre-terminated, eg an ISP will order their arial cable with built-in termination at certain intervals. No muss, no fuss.

You're right about single pair though. If you're putting in two strands might as well do 6. If you need 6 might as well do 24. Never hurts to have spares and extra capacity. Especially if it involves stringing poles or digging holes.
Docker users on the Mac are not affected by this issue, but they should be aware that the "Automatically allow downloaded signed software to receive incoming connections" option in the firewall settings must be unchecked in order to block incoming connections to container ports published to 0.0.0.0.

This is necessary because Docker Desktop for Mac is presumably signed by Apple.
I noticed that in the update today. I've got a small upcoming project that will require about 300 mailings, but I'm reluctant to use any Apple software for this because, who knows how long it will be before they remove this feature again?

As someone pretty plugged-in to the Elixir community, I can fully endorse it. There are a lot of really exciting new developments happening on the regular, but it also has really solid foundation, being built on the BEAM (Erlang's VM).

As a language, the syntax is pragmatic and approachable like Ruby, but the VM scales super well since it's Actor model provides concurrency by default.

There are even projects working to enable GPU-accelerated numerical computations (Elixir Nx) and Jupiter Notebook style collaboration and code sharing.

If you're primary goal is to learn something fun that's also great for getting actual work done, you'll probably really like Elixir.

My recommended introduction would be installing it, and running through their official guide from the top:

This. Develop the logic and flow for all of the thing, make it big, code it simple and even redundant, but really basic and simple. That's your "proof of concept". Pass two is finding and factoring out all of the redundant stuff into functions and libraries, grouping like with like. It's like in relational database design - first you grab all the fields needed, then group them and normalize them.

Apple does minor but notable updates to its apps more often than one might realize if one doesn't use them often enough to see the on-open announcement for every release.

Raspberry Pi's haven't been cheap for quite a while now.
You mean in the form of books, tech talks, articles and so on? There's plenty of that. But it is usually very technical or about abstract problem solving, sometimes also historical/anecdotal. Things like that.

Methodology stuff sometimes comes from people who don't seem to code much at all, or haven't for a long time. I don't really read those things often and when I do I tend to skim them out of boredom.

Software design, architecture and paradigms are a mixed bag. There is plenty of distracting stuff there, and much is from people who again, don't code. But there are a bunch of rare gems in this area, even coming from academics/teachers or veterans who haven't been in the trenches for quite a while, but have plenty of useful things to say.
OK, I just multiplied 26 by 26 and realized that you would only need a few hundred different forms of letters, at worst, to print cursive English that way. Printers could have done that just as they did with Devanagari, so perhaps my whole idea is wrong.
More complete datasets, a better understanding of how that data was collected and how to interpret it, solid statistical foundations, etc. etc.

People who go out to change minds should be versed in all this and more. But I don't believe they are required to roll up your sleeves and play with some data! :)
I'd expect all caching recursive resolvers to cache glue records as well as the requested records. It's part of the deal; if they didn't, the root servers would have an insane load. (After all, you need to get glue records for .com, etc, too)

Of course, there's probably exceptions, and cache size is limited. I can say that some resolvers seem to cache glue records for a long time, more than the published TTL; when I switched NS records for a popular domain, we continued to get requests on the old domain for more than 4 weeks (at which point we needed to end the previous service).
Obfuscating how the money enters the system and is transferred is a crucial part of laundering, so I'd disagree that laundering only happens upon withdrawal.

grug say nothing of "rushed code". Grug get sick if grug drinks from dirty water, even if it is closer than walking to clean water. Rushed code and dirty water hurts Grug.

But that not mean that Grug needs to dig a trench to clean water, or build wall like beaver to get more clean water, it hurts Grug's back. Grug just walk to clean water when Grug is thirsty.

Grug dig canal to clean water before, and Grug need to always keep canal clean and me not able to hunt for food because me digging new holes. One time, chief said village need to move to other side of mountain. Grug said goodbye to canal and my beaver wall. Grug should not built them.
The majority of published scientific papers have been proven wrong by future discoveries. This is what learning and progress looks like.
I've been doing this professionally for over a decade and it's been true in my experience, shrug.
Comments like these are a _part_ of the discussion, though? They provide rebuttal of the methods used in the article. Why do you want to shut _them_ down?

If one wants to redo all the scientific research that has led to the consensus about Climate Change again, they can do so over and over again.

But in 2022, most of us are past the 'discussion' phase. We really, really, need to be in _Action_ phase. The discussions have been had for decades now - I implore you to find a new argument - almost every objection to climate change has multiple scientific papers published.
