I always enjoy reading comments like that, because I'm using a Sony A7s with manual lenses at underground concerts for 8 years now. I must be doing something really wrong, or maybe it is not me, but the commenter being seriously off ...

Let me drop some facts. Your own reaction time, if you actually expect some specific event to happen, is 200ms+ between the actual event, seeing the event and eventually pressing a button. Add to that the delay for the camera to go through all the motions of taking the picture (i.e. delay between shutter button press and picture being recorded). EVFs are fast enough for quite some time (= many years) to not add substantial amounts of time on top of that, also because to catch the right moment you had to press the button before the moment even with OVFs already.

Next thing: How is it possible to do manual focusing in dark environments? The Sony A7s is pretty much a nightvision camera, you can see stuff in seemingly normal light through the EVF while you have problems seeing anything at all with your eyes. Also means this wouldn't even be remotely possible using an OVF. Now why do I use manual lenses? The crappy AF, clearly.

However, that problem got solved with the introduction of the Sony A9, which I consider (at least!) on par with my 5D3, and I first tested the A9 at a concert. Things have only gotten better since then.

And yes, the lower category and older models which fit tighter budgets are maybe not checking the AF mark, but this applies all the same to DSLRs where only the pro level consumer and high end models really fit the bill as well.
This is actually a good tactic if you want to crash and burn a bill. Put in an amendment that people have to be naked everywhere for security reasons or similar stuff.

Would of course be awesome if Facebook mods would assign scores to users and government would collect that data to determine pension and health care service quality. No real patriot could be against this.
> IIRC, the radiation levels that soon after a nuclear war could be in the "dying within a week" range (depending on the local fallout conditions).

The whole point of the advice here is that you remember incorrectly. It only takes 24 hours for the worst radiation, the kill-you-in-a-week radiation, to subside.

Don’t you think the source here would know better than you about this? What arrogance it would be to think you know better, from a vague recollection, no less…

The nature and shape of the Indian economy and financial markets will be very different in 2030 than they are today."

ts_rank functions use the term frequency within that document. not a global term frequency (which is why u need a separate index like what elasticsearch does).

this is important, cos if a word is too common, its considered less significant for a document match. When we calculate IDF, it will be very low for the most occurring words such as stop words (“is” is present in almost all of the documents, and tf-idf will give a very low value to that word).

there's someone who implemented this, its pretty cool. but definitely performance takes a hit versus a separate elasticsearch cluster. https://codebots.com/crud/How-to-efficiently-search-text-usi...

Also, it does no good to compare the best software of the past with the average or worst software of the present. We tend to forget the average software of the past, and I would guess that most of us weren't exposed to the worst of it.

Inefficient software has been a problem for practically all of the history of personal computing. I'll illustrate with two anecdotes:

I was in high school when Office 97 came out. I only have a vague memory of this, but I do remember one of my classmates complaining that it was sluggish on whatever computer he had at the time.

The first commercial product that I shipped, in 2002, was a desktop application written in Java (though, as shipped, it only ran on Windows). I didn't do most of the original development; it was developed by an outsourced development shop, and then I had to take over the project. Whether on my underpowered 366 MHz laptop or my boss's much more powerful machine, the app took considerable time to start up, so much so that we put in background music during some of the startup process (the app was a self-contained audio environment for blind people, so that was our equivalent of a splash screen). I never really dug into what caused the slow startup, but in hindsight, I would guess that it was the late-binding nature of Java, particularly the fact that classes had to be loaded individually as they were first used, often from multiple jar files, not to mention loading native code from multiple DLLs. The peanut gallery here may say the app should have been a statically linked native executable, but for all practical purposes, that would have meant C++, and if that had been a hard requirement, the app would never have shipped at all. And while we struggled to sell that particular app, it did have some happy users (indeed, for some of the target users that we did manage to reach, the app was positively life-changing in its impact), so I don't regret that we shipped it in its inefficient state. If the same app were developed today in Electron, with any decent build setup, I'm guessing it would be up and running in a few seconds.

Whether in the 90s, the 2000s, or today, most development teams have never had the resources to produce the highly optimized gems that we fondly remember from the past that we so often pine for. But the software that we do manage to ship is used and even enjoyed anyway. And, to bring this back to the original discussion, advances in hardware enable more under-resourced teams to ship more useful and enjoyable software that would otherwise not exist.
I dunno Georgian but it really should be as Sakartvelo? Not like a base Kart(v) plus some local language changes for point of land?

Because as I can see:

- Fixes sa- and -o are for the area where X dwell⁰. For comapare, itʼs also used to sa-berʒn-eti «Greece»¹ sa-prang-eti «France»².

- Suffix -eli is for the person is from X³. Also used for other people. Suffix -v- is debatable, maybe itʼs for places.

So, I guess, in kinda Latin way itʼs Kart(v)ia.

> Some, like Google, just to ensure that competitors don't get that talent.

This meme never made sense to me. How big is Google compared to it's competitors? Even if we narrow the scope down to the top 5% of talent - Google jas plenty of competition there. At best, Google can hang onto employees for a few years: not a great strategy for competing when employee churn is high.

If Google really wanted to hoard talent, they'd ensure current employees earn as much as new hires.
Unlikely to work in any corporate environment that I've witnessed.

This is why so many devs I know moved to Mac's. Not because Mac's are necessary that great, who cares about battery life when it just sits on a desk, but because it's the closest you can get to Linux in a corporate environment.

I would take native Linux on an ThinkPad as first option, but denied that I would go for Mac over Windows. I don't find WSL fixed all the other Windows problems such as lack of support for multiple desktops. They exist but the implementation is terrible.

A little late to reply but yes I am always happy to talk about this kind of thing. Unfortunately the reality is that my story is not in any way interesting; I didn't start off as a railroad engineer or 2nd grade teacher or anything like that. I started in graphic design in the mid-2000s, got heavily into Web 2.0 and was one of those designers that did skeuomorphic designs delivered in .PSD format with the Lobster font and realistic metal textures and all of that. I've been in UI/UX design sense, and still technically have a role in a design department, but I write code full time. It's an interesting niche to fill and the pool of competent technical designers is growing all the time.

A bit of an off topic: I've noticed a few older articles being posted around here lately and I must say I've enjoyed them very much.

The insights, learning their original contexts, and having hindsight due to the time passed makes them particularly valuable to me.

And I believe we can learn a lot by reading them. However most of what gets posted in HN and other aggregators is new content.

Is there any place where these sort of "most influential" articles of previous times can be found?

You must have responded in the wrong thread, since this one isn't about children. Christianity is relevant where others aren't since they're the reason everyone is having this debate in the US.

And Christians don't consider "natural causes". A foetus is either delivered by the mother, aborted by the mother, or aborted by god.

Honestly, this reaction demonstrates pretty clearly that he’s not strong enough to deal with any of this, as the by far best way to deal with a troll is to ignore them.

I’m not a functional programmer by trade, but I think you’re alluding to (and should reframe your argument to discuss) concurrent reads and the implications of immutable data in a multithreaded scenario. It’s about simplifying your programs state machine. If I have some object A in an OO world, some N threads may act on said object concurrently resulting in some degree of non-determinism for any function of A. In FP, as I understand it, this is mitigated as you’re not dealing with mutable data structures but immutable objects whose data is consistent over the lifetime of any logical operation. Effectively, you just need to deal with conflicts on writes which you can design for.

This is just a side effect of functional programming but such behavior can be embedded into and made a fundamental part of your foundational data structures in an OO program.

I sometimes play the same song on loop for days; especially when I am trying crack a complex algorithm or trying to come up with the system design of a large pipeline.

My hypothesis being: with every repetition the song move toward the "background of my mind" such that I am not spending too much "compute time" on the song itself; the sound is still there, helping me ignore external noises and therefore I am able to focus more on the task at hand.

Smart people are everywhere, in small percentages - they can learn to do most things.

I think part of the problem is, recruiters are (on average) less smart than greedy, and there's a layer of them before you even get to HR.

Then you get to HR, and they're generally more concerned with ticking skill boxes than hiring for intelligence (despite the fact that smart people can learn this shit on the job).

Comp bands themselves aren't changing, only the numbers of hires are being reduced.
