Exactly right! I find the SPA vs. MPA debate to be tedious, if not downright misleading, because it's perfectly possible build a web app that starts out as a basic MPA and then with (hmm, what's that term I'm looking for…wait for it…oh yeah!) *progressive enhancement*, you make it more and more SPA-like by loading in HTML fragments and making incremental DOM updates, updating the URL whenever possible to mirror backend state, etc. Heck, just with Turbo Drive alone, you can eliminate the "full-page reload" problem of MPAs with essentially zero (custom) JavaScript and it works great with static sites, full SSR frameworks, you name it.

We desperately need better terminology around this stuff and the willingness to engage in nuance and see these it as a broad spectrum of various approaches you can mix 'n' match—sometimes all in the same project! Saying "oh this app's MPA, oh that app's SPA" will totally lead n00bs astray who aren't familiar with the production-level nuances involved.
These comparisons are generally pointless for a variety of reasons. BUT, Angular's dev experience is garbage, and no amount of hot take analysis will convince me otherwise.
One bus lane or bike lane won't make a difference and isn't worth doing both need very extensive investment before you get enough different that they are worth using. Sure you make the bus take 10 minutes less, but if I can drive in 20 minutes 1 hour 35 minutes isn't better. The above times were from a real trip that I once looked up making by bus. Good service is hard and expensive, I don't know how to get there, but most partial measures are not big enough to be worth the bother.
The problem if you only have row options (liberal/democrat vs conservative/republican) is that totally unrelated things have to fit this incredibly coarse framework. If someone is against constructing anything and afraid "outsiders" will come into the neighborhood, but they are for tighter gun control are they conservative or not? It's just random labels now from a policy perspective.
It could be that legislators and regulators are stuck in the 10 years ago framing, where Apple is basically an also-ran and Microsoft is the big tech company.

Or it could be that the fact that Apple presents their product as "a device" rather than software somehow messes with the mental model.
The reason I didn’t mention unaligned load is because it can cross a page boundary and fault. With aligned loads, you can avoid this.

(Edit: The idea is that with an aligned load, you only load 16-byte blocks that contain valid data. This can’t page fault, but you can load data you didn’t want, which is ok. Writing is trickier because the write may have to be atomic and can’t spill.)

If you look at falling fertility rate within the demographic transition model, an economy will first enjoy a time where the number of dependent to the working age population will decrease (demographic transition), meaning that people will enjoy higher standard of living, economy will have excess capital for growth, and everyone is happy. Decades later, the number of dependent to the working age population will increase again (demographic aging), in which the unfortunate reverse will occur, and people will start sounding the alarm, and it's 2 decades too late to anything about it.

The vintage-futurism economic dream of 10 hour workweeks will be tough to achieve if we need many in the working age population taking care of the elderly.
I should have clarified that I meant Clickhouse can't really be used as an RDBMS. I wasn't aware that RocksDB uses LSMTs.

Our box turtle in winter goes as long as several months w/o eating. In fact some years it hibernates from a few weeks to a couple of months. This is inside at room temperature. During the active months it usually wants to eat turtle food every 2 or 3 days, and it will not touch food unless it is hungry. Ah, so here I have to admit that I let it train me to add a little water to the dry food, and the turtle hates dirty food, so I just have to give it new food when it's hungry. It is always hungry for crickets, roaches, grubs, big grasshoppers, earthworms, big green hornworm caterpillars[1], etc., but those are a lot of trouble to maintain a constant supply.

The turtle's terrarium (a big aquarium tank) is parallel to my path to the office, so I also know it's hungry, aside from the banging, when it sees me coming and races me the length of the tank. Did I mention that it appears to differentiate between me and other people?

[1] A favorite story I like to retell (and Grandpa starts in with...) is when our daughter was oh 11ish and we had a bunch of her classmates over I liked to drop a big tomato hornworm into the turtle tank with the kids all gathered round. When the cabal got packed in tight and a bunch of eeewwws! started I knew that once again, it was nature, green in tooth and claw.
Because one only need to look at history in past times of housing crisis in our history. The response and solution to times of housing shortages and high prices has always been to build out more supply. There was a housing crisis in the 1940s due to decades of stagnation of building homes from the great depression and WWII, and homes were unaffordable, until the 1950s brought on supply that was not generated by government intervention but by private developers and even the Sears catalogue. About all the government did was stimulate the private market by providing capital in the form of the GI bill, and coupled with the available zoned capacity surrounding cities, developers were able to build and meet demand that now had capital to afford supply which was able to be built thanks to the available zoned capacity.

Since the 1960s however, we've slashed our potential to add capacity (1), and prices have soared in markets like Los Angeles that were historically more affordable to wage earners.

"Universal tolower()" doesn't even make sense. What would you expect from tolower("Σ"), "σ" or "ς"? If you assume tolower(toupper(mychar)) == tolower(mychar) then your code is going to break.
yeah the 90s is when the term "assault weapon" was pushed into the narrative in an attempt to blur the lines between a semiautomatic hunting rifle and an actual assault rifle.

So that's how we end up with people calling hunting rifles "assault rifles/weapons" or "military grade weaponry". It's like dude a freaking blunderbuss is military grade weaponry. The most popular hunting rounds in the USA were originally designed for military use.
I agree that there's a combination of higher-order structure and expressive performance in music, specifically. Spoken language audio generation is in a place roughly similar to imagery, and we cam extrapolate that to AI performers, which I think is what commercial products for audio production have focused on. Like with speech, it still has an uncanny valley to go through.

It lost some value but most of the sinking was done before the downgrade - just like every other tech stock.

And, never forget: Goldman's downgrade of AMD when it was sitting at $12. AMD sank back to $8, and then it rocket rode to the moon. Goldman threw shade on AMD to buy it for cheap.

I still think outperforming 1 in 10 is very hard. Especially since I've had to hire more people than I've had "high conviction" in.

And beyond that, you just can't assess work ethic, diligence, attention to detail, etc, from an interview. You can get some secondary indicators that are correlated with that on the job, but imperfectly so.
Most cities are run by people who would call themselves very progressive, and have been for a long time. New York, SF, Chicago, LA, and other big cities have all had 100% progressive leadership for a very long time. These same cities, which purport to have "fair" "progressive" policies have huge problems building affordable housing (mostly because they want to regulate its construction to hell). It is not due to conservative opposition, it is generally due to opposition from the left, often on grounds of "avoiding gentrification" and "keeping the character of the city."

Look at Calle 24 in SF for a good example - in order to preserve diversity, a progressive organization has blocked a lot of projects that would add low-income housing to their neighborhoods. In addition, progressive mayors and city governments make it comparatively pleasant to be a bum in these areas - you can do whatever you want, including committing petty crimes, and you will get generous amounts of money for it. Economics 101 tells you that when you subsidize something, you get more of it. It's true for solar panels, and it's true for homelessness.

By the way, what happened in the 80's in NYC is that the professional class had enough and started electing conservatives. Those are the people who actually cleaned up the city by forcing homeless people to take shelter beds (they often don't want to end up in shelters because shelters have strict rules), and making it unpleasant to be homeless. At the same time, they invested in things like brighter lights, subway cleanups, and other nonsense that improves quality of life (but is not "fair" according to progressives). They also empowered police to enforce criminal laws on petty criminals.

So yes, this is a problem with politicians who claim to be progressive. I used to call myself "progressive" until I learned that this is where "progressive" politicians lead things. As a progressive yourself, it's up to you to call this behavior out if you want people to think that your ideology actually helps people.
Sure, but nothing's freer than being able to handle a great deal of the travel you need on your own two legs, or maybe with a $20 bike you got at a garage sale. Engineering society such that even city-dwellers need a car in order not to be hugely inconvenienced or badly disadvantaged isn't a pro-freedom move.

South Am governments are dependent on banks in other parts of the world.

The Chinese government is not.

There's just some realities about global economics. Uruguay, Portugal, or Rwanda default, then they have a problem. China or US has the same issues, and it's just not the same kind of problem. They would just redefine things so that they don't default and then call the whole thing a "bailout". I'm not ragging on south americans or africans or portuguese, I'm just stating facts. It's not fair, but that's how the global system works.

You do business with China or the US, you find out fairly early on that even in a crisis, it's their way or the highway.
That’s the trendy opinion for now. This seems to be cyclical.

Around the same time as the link you cited: https://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/29/opinion/saturated-fat-is-...

This article delves into specific categories within “saturated fat” https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/05/well/eat/is-the-saturated...

Two years later: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/29/well/good-fats-bad-fats.h...

A few years after that: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/28/well/eat/low-carb-diet-he...

Citing the NYT isn’t really helpful since you can find basically every diet fad/trend in their pages.

Personal experience tells me that sugar and refined carbs make it harder to maintain a healthy weight, and that’s enough for me. But that’s not a “facts matter” frame. An anti-fat/pro-carb person could list out a whole book worth of facts leading in exactly the wrong direction: https://www.amazon.com/How-Not-Diet-Groundbreaking-Permanent...

Facts do matter, but in the case of nutrition, facts are a dime a dozen and we clearly have not as a society arrived at a final answer.

P.S. the sugar lobby explanation is uncompelling because all other industries also have lobbyists; I would think the beef and pork lobbyists would not be doing their job if they let you think that saturated fat is unhealthy.
Man, this is a dumb take. Even if there were a correlation (which there apparently isn't, per https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31899793), there's zero way you can say that there's any sort of causational relationship.

Look, I can do this too:

* highly-developed western societies have lots of regulation

* highly-developed western societies have low birth rates

* highly-developed western societies have a high percentage of lawyers per capita

ergo, lawyers decrease the birth rate?

Yep, and you can also solve this problem by having a separate table for each variant and joining whenever you need to deal with common stuff. Personally, I think it's usually better just to have one giant table and allow the different columns to be null since it lets you avoid a bunch of verbose joins.

YIMBY Action (https://yimbyaction.org) member here.

You should try to drop in to one of our meetings. It is a very big tent here. You have people not only involved on making it easier to build more housing, but also ensuring that we build affordable housing and that we keep tenant protections.

I am of the idea that 90% of the problem could be solved by streamlining housing of all types (e.g. remove zoning, making permitting a 30 day process, by-right building, etc.) and the last 10% can be covered via government intervention (e.g. public housing, housing vouchers, rent control, etc.).

But you can find folks within YIMBY Action that think the mix is 50% / 50% or 20% / 80%. And you will see that our endorsements and activism reflects that! We are as often promoting removing barriers for building housing as we are ensuring that we protect those that need it the most.

We all agree, however, that you _need_ to build housing, that the problem is a problem of supply, and that the culprit is Byzantine regulation and NIMBYism.

Come join us!

> But I make sure to not judge them on that. [...] The content of the interview is the real meat and potatoes

Which is to say, the difference between a genuinely good candidate and one that merely claims to be is clearly visible in exactly the kind of interview the linked article is arguing against.

I think there's lots of room for criticism of the Big Tech Coding Interview. But "it doesn't work" is just not reasonable. It does work, it objectively works very well, probably better than other techniques (the existence proof being that there aren't any other hiring organizations out there beating the FAANGs at their own HR game).

If you want to criticize, point out that it doesn't necessarily work fairly. It rejects specific qualified candidates more often than it should, and it fails to reliably measure other areas of qualification than mere technical skill.

But don't say it doesn't work, or that it's a waste of time. Show, don't tell. If you know how to hire better people, then do so and beat the world.
Where do you live if you believe bums pay fare? It's definitely not the case in LA, SF and NYC. Make it 10x expensive and they still pay 10x0 i.e. 0.

Respectfully, I disagree. I have a handful of friends/colleagues who had apartment complexes built nearby their suburban McMansions, and each one had the same story: increased traffic and vehicle congestion, decreased available street parking, increased noise pollution, increased pedestrian traffic, and yes, increased crime. All of these things will make property values go one direction, and it ain't higher.

Extreme example: Back in the 90s, a friend bought a brand new, suburban home. Two years later, an apartment complex was built on a vacant lot about two blocks away. Two years after that, the apartment complex started accepting Section 8's. The crime started almost immediately. His car was broken into. His house was broken into. Loud music all night. Beer bottles on his lawn in the morning. His once quiet suburban home was no more. He eventually sold and took a significant loss. I know I'm the bad guy for pointing this out, but facts are facts, and money is real. Increasing density where it was never intended will negatively impact your property value.

(^^^ I was told there were lawsuits, but California officials got involved and squashed it, saying basically, "We said they could accept Section 8's, and there ain't shit you can do about it. Suck it.")

Thanks! I agree. The R-squared of these numbers is 0.11, which is much closer to 0 (no relation) than to 1 (perfect correlation).
Hard to say since it depends(tm) but for the most part it should look like any other html site, react then just hydrates. IMO it's the best of both worlds.

On the sites I've been working pages that have been server rendered work mostly perfectly with javascript disabled.
I think I disagree (though happy to be corrected). It's common to have dervied types (example Base = Shape, Derived = Circle, Rectangle, Hexagon). Often you have a collection of Shape and often there is some runtime code that can go from a Base type to a Dervied type based on some key or value but the relationship between the key and the Dervied type is rarely directly expressed in the type system where as in typescript it can be.

I think an example is how typescript can know, based on the first argument to a listener, what the Event type coming in will be

elem.addEventListner('mousedown', (foo) => {...});
elem.addEventListner('keydown', (bar) => {...});

typescript knows foo is a MouseEvent and bar is a KeyboardEvent

Of course you could argue that `addEventListener` is just bad design but I feel like there are legit uses to being able to associate an enum or string with type and I haven't seen that feature in other languages I've used.
The note at the end of the article really is all you really need to read of it.
No. There is no suspected cause for any such "anomalously high insect population in the past", while we have a lot of suspected causes, verified by the way (so rather culprits than suspects) for the insects decline. The "anomalously high" "is possible" but is actually pure baseless speculation. Also, there is no such observation in the available litterature, scientific or layman.

You know, it is just a matter of knitting all of our knowledge bits together. Lots of nasty chemicals in the environments, especially design to harm insects. Add to that anormal temperatures and rain levels.

Efficiency matters because if you are efficient you can do more. There is only so much money you can get to build, build well and you get reelected and get more. Build bad and the project is cancled, or maybe it completes but it is too small (all you could afford) to be useful.
