What is the use-case for this software? From the README:

> We are building LinkedDataHub primarily for:

> researchers who need an RDF-native notebook that can consume and collect Linked Data and SPARQL documents and follows the FAIR principles

I would be interested in reading a user story of a few paragraphs about how this works. I don't know anyone working with RDF or SPARQL documents, but I'm curious about these technologies. Graphs are cool, and SPARQL has a certain appeal. Who is using these things already day-to-day?

> developers who are looking for a declarative full stack framework for Knowledge Graph application development, with out-of-the-box UI and API

I work on an application (https://notion.so) that would be better with more Knowledge Graph, but I don't need a framework. I'm curious what application developers approach the knowledge graph space looking for a "full stack framework". I presume most commercial developers would prefer to use their existing application tooling. Maybe academic researchers writing software for their lab?

>What makes LinkedDataHub unique is its completely data-driven architecture: applications and documents are defined as data, managed using a single generic HTTP API and presented using declarative technologies. The default application structure and user interface are provided, but they can be completely overridden and customized. Unless a custom server-side processing is required, no imperative code such as Java or JavaScript needs to be involved at all.

This kind of flexibility is intrinsically appealing to programmers, but the resulting user experience leaves a lot to be desired. Usually it's better to build a good product first, and then to extract the framework bits once they've proved productive. Otherwise you may end up with a framework that can do anything, but in a way nobody wants.

Aye. I picked my words deliberately.
Using Libre Office rather than Office 365 is unlikely to be the limiting factor in how fast anything in a government office is going to run.

In fact, I bet you that a major part of the delays in Government are because Tom from IT needs a sign off from three separate people to get a new Office 365 license for Brenda in accounting.

With Libre Office you make that a thing of the past.
As a resident of any modern city, the reduction in _tailpipe_ emissions alone would make it worth it in terms of a cleaner local environment, even if there were no reduction in absolute emissions which - as many commenters have pointed out - depends in large part on your generation mix.
Accuracy, and reload times, etc. are much different for cannons today than they were 250 years ago. Population density is different and society is much more complex now. A well regulated militia means that the government has the right to regulate firearms. And a well regulated militia is no longer necessary for the defense of the country. The second amendment is obsolete and detrimental to the country.

We are not a nation of laws. We have seen our leaders try to overthrow the government with impunity. We have government agencies engage in torture and mass surveillance with impunity. We have police forces that kill legally armed people who have done no wrong with impunity. This is not a nation of laws as you put it. We have a Supreme Court ignore precedent and make up shit with its recent rulings. We recently had a President ignore the Constitution to enrich himself and nothing came of it. We have a Supreme Court decide that it wasn’t important to ensure that the votes for President were counted correctly and appointed Bush as the winner.

The Republic ended when a coup was attempted and nothing happened to the instigators. We will soon live in a country in which a legal act in one city is a death penalty crime in another. We soon will live in a country in which the government can’t meaningfully enforce administrative rules. It’s already over unless the Constitution is drastically rewritten or the Court in its present form is changed.

If you do this a lot you should look into ‘startapp —-template’ which lets you bake in boilerplate like this.

One minor point on app names. They are really hard/annoying to change once you have production data, because your DB tables will always be appname_modelname, and renaming tables is a real PITA. You can set the model to point to a nonstandard table, but then your project has a confusing non-Djangonic wart that will annoy you forever more. For this reason I think ‘core’ is a safer option, unless you are certain what your app should be named. Naming after one domain model is likely to be too specific. (I strongly recommend against multiple apps until you have functionality you need to commonize between projects, as refactoring models between apps is a nightmare if you get the boundaries wrong.)

> I expect my cars to last 300k - 500k KM.

Most non-japanese cars turn into crap-boxes post 100k miles. Assuming 10k miles/yr, that's expecting a 20-35 yr lifespan for a car. That is incredibly impractical.

> Consumer Reports estimates the average EV battery pack's lifespan to be at around 200,000 miles

This means that an owner's experience will begin to substantially deteriorate at the 100k+ mile mark.

The whole electric cars as a solution for climate change thing is smoke-and-mirrors. The real problem is cars as a whole. If climate change is indeed an existential threat, then funding for public transport, bikes and dense neighborhoods must go up.

Electric cars being heavier, lead to (mass squared) faster road wear and road costs. Their quietness, greater acceleration, greater momentum and worse braking distances will only lead to increased accidents. Their range obsession means that EV hatchbacks are simply infeasible, and the move towards trucks and giant cars is proceeding undeterred.

I would have loved to see a more tiny-car / ebike driven electric revolution. Hell, we already had electrified transportation : it was called streetcars and trains. I do not particularly like the Ford F150 lightning and Model X version of electric car revolution that we're seeing today.

Electric cars are great on paper, but their 2nd order effects will cause more damage than good. That being said, we might see some great moonshot 3rd order effects such as sufficient battery storage technology to counter grid instability due to renewables or the complete removal of domestic gas pipelines in public infrastructure. But, I think the harmful 2nd order effects are more likely to cause issues than the good brought in by electric vehicles and possible moonshot events.
>Zigs solution is hands down better for actually getting work done

Rust has seen significant usage in large companies; they wouldn't be using it unless it was usable for "real work".

>Full disclaimer, I'm pretty bad at systems programming. Zig is the only one I've used where I didn't feel like memory management was a massive headache.

I'd say this about Rust, though. Rust's mental model is very straightforward if you accept the borrow-checker and stop fighting it. Can you list any examples of what you think is a headache...?

>In practice it rejects too many valid programs, over-complicates the language, and makes me feel like a circus animal being trained to jump through hoops.

I've found that jumping through those hoops leads to things running in production that don't make me get up in the middle of the night. Can you show me a "valid program" that Rust rejects?
Hot tip! Thx
> You frame your comparison within the bounds of techniques that are used in practice.

Well, is ASan used in practice, by the relevant target audience (i.e. mainstream C++ developers)? My guess is that the vast majority of the people both Rust and Zig are aiming for are people who don't use ASan with C++ today and wouldn't use ASan with Rust or Zig if they switched to them.
It only gets expensive if you insist on sourcing it from enterprise vendors. The first 256GB I paid $2,400 for. The second 256GB I paid $1,200 a little over a year later. And the third 256GB I paid $800 about seven months later. I've got a workstation with 768GB DDR4 and I am considering upping that to 1.5TB if the prices on the 256GB sticks will come down.
I could have worded that better. I just mean ignoring the general political situation in Russia, Yandex makes some really good products.

>Rust does everything C++ does, as far as things happening invisibly

These 4 things do not happen invisibly in rust:

code running on struct creation (it will be an explicit ::new() call)

code running on struct copying (it will be an explicit ::clone() call)

code running on struct moving (moving is always a memcpy in rust, no custom code can run).

Error handling flow control (no exceptions, error handling will at minimum be marked with a '?'). (yes panic exists but this is basically for the same purposes as a kernel panic).

Rust favours making things explicit, much more so than C++.

> I’m glad you like it. Someone has to, I guess

Millions of people and companies do. For mostly one reason: Getting started is incredibly simple. React's surface area is incredibly narrow. Almost anything in it is just JavaScript. Hooks or Classes? Syntax inside JSX? Just normal JavaScript. With hooks, there are basically two that can do 99% of what you want to do.

> which is so much worse than meaningful templates

Why? There is a zero bullshit approach here. No magic syntax. No "v-for" or two way binding. No receiver patters or context parameters.
he needed a year off twitter. he was fun to follow for a while, but it was sad to watch the tweets turn so angry and defensive.
I think it's very clear for anything other than a no-true-Scotsman definition of "modern tools and best practices" (which is sadly the only one that seems to exist).
The issue, as outlined in the article, is that artists get different rates for whether a song was "sold" or "licensed" (with licensing giving a much higher percentage to the artist), and while services presented their sales as license agreements to the end customer, they presented them as sales to the artists, allowing the streaming service to restrict user rights while also not paying artists the much higher percentage.

There are of course different ways to interpret what a sale of a digital good is (as you note), but legally speaking with regard to the status quo, it seems like something large might be changing. Either end users might find they have a lot more rights (the ones they've traditionally had for purchased items), or artists will get a lot more money because they've been getting screwed for decades for licensed works, or possibly we'll see new legislation codifying the current status quo to protect the large media companies (because for some reason legislators often seem to think past ability to make money is a reason in itself to protect the method in which it was done, regardless of legality).

> In a technical sense

This is a common mistake software engineers make when parsing law. It is not code and cannot be treated in a technical sense as the language it was written in was English which is not technical.

Imagine every person reading the law is like their own personal compiler and so when they intercept “the law” they get different results. Our Supreme Court exists entirely to determine the standard interpretation of the law whenever a disagreement occurs
Yes but they are not tracking you with third party services, so regardless of where the server is they would not need a banner. The banner is a request for surveillance permission.
The second example (with the sequences v. the table of boolean columns) seems like it'd be immediately resolved by replacing those booleans with timestamps.
I use Pinboard, like many others here. The other thing I do is use that API to write new entries from time to time, to my own local DB, in case the author gets hit by a bus (as he's joked about). I haven't written a front end to do much _with_ my local copy, but figure that's a problem I can deal with when I need to.
Many repositories on Github were put there by people that do not own the copyright and never agreed to GitHub's Terms of Service.

Linux, for example, does not require copyright assignment. The original contributor of a change owns the copyright for that code and may have never used Github.

>A meta point to make here but I don’t quite understand the pushback that Rust has gotten.

The non-CS "human" answer to this is that so much of tech and programming is unfortunately tied to identity. There are developers who view their choices as bordering on religion (from editors to languages to operating systems and so on) and across the entire industry you can see where some will take the slightest hint that things could be better as an affront to their identity.

The more that Rust grows and winds up in the industry, the more this will continue to happen.
A lot of this resonates with the idea of surface acting vs deep acting (see relevant section here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emotional_labor)

I agree. Pepsi advertised it as a prize, whether or not they would have made or lost money on delivering that prize is their problem, not the consumer's.

Accidentally installed an app in Windows 10/11? Maybe Microsoft included it without your permission? Well, you now have no way to remove it from your account and their Store app has no sorting capabilities. Microsoft will just ignore your request and lock the conversation.
This is a weird comment because yes, that's exactly what the above person was saying. It shows results that google won't give you.

Secondly, I've yet to see any criticisms of 2000 mules data that aren't addressed by the stringency in the analysis they claim to have done.

I thought the information they presented was extremely valuable. Are we going to overturn an election at this point? No. But the vulnerabilities to the mail-in ballots were obvious, then lied about, then ignored, then clearly taken advantage of. I want to live in a democracy because voting matters. I especially don't want NPO's destroying this by taking advantage of flawed voting infrastructure.

If there are legitimate criticisms of the methods, the data, or anything else coming out of this film I expect a legitimate presentation that can break it down using the actual data in question. All I've seen so far is shilling and gas-lighting.

And The Foundation is on Apple TV, I was using the examples to compare Netflix’s offerings compared to what I saw of as the most glaring example of wokeness “bending objective facts” and the best example of including diversity without weakening the story and in fact strengthening it.

Netflix’s offerings in comparison are middle of the road and kinda just have the people exist as either main characters are the quirky friend(tall girl for example) but nothing that bent objective facts
You're observing 'motivated reasoning', where someone started with the result (Apple is wrong to disallow side-loading), and came up with a way to support it.

This only makes sense if a company is no longer liable for damages if a product has been modified. Then we need to define for every product what is considered a modification, and figure out how to factually determine that.

Ya this is what I haven’t understood about weed advocacy and the discussion around it. I think that people who were in the scene in middle/high school, which unfortunately is very very common in my view but just not well known, know more than enough lives torpedoed by getting into it.

Sure, “surprise, doing drugs at 13 is bad,” but I don’t know a lot of teenage drinkers who stopped at drinking (vs further in) in the same bad spot as the teenage smokers I knew (who stopped at smoking).

The difference of smoking at 13 vs 30 is likely different, but idk if I really buy starting in adulthood and trending towards habitual is meaningfully immune from its bad impacts I’ve seen peers deal who stuck with it.

AFAIK we can't even count 'temples', a word archeologists frequently ascribe to buildings of many sizes with nary a shred of evidence that they're not community centers, beer halls, warehouses or king's palaces.

The point is the Anti-Federalists said "No Bill of Rights, we won't observe the Constitution." Starting with New York I think this was made an explicit contingent condition of their ratification of the Constitution. Thus a compact, or covenant if you prefer.

Thus the Bill of Rights are special in a way no other Amendments are and cannot be abrogated without breaking the covenant that allowed the Constitution to become a thing in the first place.
