The best way to do this, is minimize the amount of data, going back and forth.

In today's age, with multi-megabyte 4K background videos, and enormous dependency chains, that's a hard sell.

I dealt with it, by writing my own backend, with a fairly optimized API, and consulting it in JIT "bursts."

That’s considered “square,” these days.
Get an anthology. Someone got me one for Christmas in 9th grade. By the time I finished high school I owned all of them. I don't keep much physical stuff around, but I still have those.
I agree. But if one doesn't define a "general purpose computer" as being a piece of hardware, then all kinds of different conclusions can be drawn.

If what Amelius pointed out here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32116822
is true, i.e. the documentation is junk. Then, IMHO, Apple is no longer trying to sell "a good piece of hardware"; because they're not documenting its operation.

And, in reality, I find this to be true... what Apple really sells is "an experience".

Whether it's a good or bad experience is likely in the eye of the beholder.

Lol this is Newyorker. They are poster child fanboy of Bernanke-Yellen-Powell club who brought this mess on to us.

This article does not bring up the key issue that we have had in last 15yrs post GFC - motivation of having endless QE. At some point everyone knew there would be repercussions but everyone looked the other way and was like “trust the fed” or “don’t fight the Fed”. Just kicking the can down the road.

Well now Fed has its hands tied. It can’t raise rates too fast or the economy craters. The other option is let the inflation run hot.

Sounds like the notice of inquiry would be interesting reading. Anyone know whether it is available to the public on the website?
I think you're hanging people up by calling this "SaaS." Your pitch reads "We are a community of affordable and accountable writers from all around the world." That doesn't sound to me like you're selling a software service. You're selling the services of human writers, unless you're lying and this is actually auto-generated content.

If you're really selling the services of human writers, the fact that your company will be better at acquiring customers if it has a website doesn't mean you need to make it yourself. Hire a developer. Maybe they use a no code tool. Maybe they don't. Provided the end product meets your requirements, what difference does it make?

What are you really selling here? I just looked at the first thing in your portfolio that was in English and not crypto and you seem to be claiming you produced the "about us" content for Body Union, some supplement company in England? When I compare your entry to their real about us page, the content does match. Are you saying you have a writer on staff who ghostwrote that for the CEO "Katarzyna Pindel?" Is that not really her story? I mean, I know it's not actually her story, because it's not possible for a single person to really have Celiac, Hashimoto, and IBS and cure it with vitamins, but did she not give you the story? Your writer just made it up? Is it autogenerated by a language model?

If you're just trying to track which customer wants which content in which language and match writers to customers, what is driving the need for a custom software stack at all? Doesn't something like Salesforce already do all of this?
Obviously air conditioning is really useful in a hot climate. As someone who does a lot of moving between places with/without it, it's interesting to see how overused it can be in much of the US. Your office in the northeast does not need to be 69 degrees inside all summer long.

I have to disagree.

I used XML-RPC exactly twice, but it proved to be a quick solution to nasty integration problems and we were very happy with it.

Case #1 - we had to implement an interface to book flights on Amadeus (https://amadeus.com/en). In order to guarantee the caller identity they provided a C library (binaries that you had to link with your stuff) that would generate tokens that you would then add to your own calls to them to guarantee your identity.
We were trying to use it from a Solaris machine, and the library would bomb at each call.
But their Windows binary module worked fine, so we basically put up an XML-RPC connection between our Solaris hosted main app and a little Windows service which would simply provide the token for us to embed in the subsequent call.
(This was the only way we could find to hit our release date in time, and it worked fine for 5 years serving hundred of thousands of calls every year).

Case #2 - less "business critical", but still fine: I was on sick leave from the office recovering from minor trauma to my knee and here is what I suggested to a guy trying to use a PERL library as part of non-PERL stack: https://stackoverflow.com/a/2635719/54504

(it was part of his final exam for a degree in CS, I provided more assistance outside of StackOverflow and he was very happy with the results).
All I get is a spinny in the box I assume is where it's supposed to load. It's not front page, so I doubt HN overloaded it.
Been using an M2 Pro for a week (16GB RAM, 256GB SSD), absolutely cannot tell. Large dependency installs (node, go, c++, python) are insanely fast, docker builds are fast, everything is just fast.
A related problem is they say you can export to real code and have infinite flexibility, but now the tool and the code are out of sync. The tooling doesn’t have a handle on this new code.
You've probably heard this already but go to see the Trevi fountain - it's just there in the streets, you don't need a ticket; and in fact, a walkabout of that whole area is beautiful.

I also really enjoyed an afternoon walking around St Peter's Basilica in Vatican City - the museum is stuffed to the gills with ancient relics that the catholic church 'collected' from around the world, and the architecture of the building itself is awe inspiring.

As a non-ruby user, from my POV ruby is primarily related to webapps. While it's possible to use it for other types of software, nobody really does, except possibly people that already maintain large codebases of ruby webapps.
Ilya is a young "political scientist" (not a real science, btw), very open about his left and anti-Russia biases and certainly no economics expert. Please consider broadening your sources of expert opinion because "all experts" are absolutely not in agreement just like "the entire world" is not actually against Russia (unless you believe the EU and Anglo-sphere is "the entire world").
I can’t imagine being accused of a crime and having my fate determined by a group of people who clearly did not want to be there.

The eco-harm it causes is more related to its energy use and how it is typically generated. But there are eco-friendly ways to generate (and store) energy, not burning fossil fuels in general, or even burning at all. You can't separate ACs from other energy consuming devices, the same could be said, about, I don't know, microwave ovens. Its the energy what should be redefined, how we get it.

Besides that, they are becoming more efficient, and there are alternative approaches to control temperature at homes.

I always thought nobody wants to be there at mondays...
I've had the great misfortune to be writing code against an XML-RPC service recently. It's really a miserable design, even compared to contemporaries like Sun RPC.

* Incredibly verbose. Even a trivial array value like [1, 2, 3] encodes to over a hundred bytes. I'm convinced the author was not aware of attributes, or for some reason held a grudge against them.

* There's only like five primitive types, so implementations that want to transmit wild and unusual values such as 64-bit integers need to define their own ad-hoc extensions.

* It's written in XML but there's no namespace, and implementations may or may not use namespaces for their extensions. Is an int64 represented as `i8` or `{http://ws.apache.org/xmlrpc/namespaces/extensions}i8`? Depends on which library you're talking to!

* There's a native "date/time" type, but the syntax is unspecified other than being ISO8601-ish. Don't even get me started on timezones, which will probably be in the local time of the server, but might be in UTC or BST or who knows what.

* The XML-RPC spec claims that <string> elements can be used to transmit any character except '<' and '&', including binary data, including NUL. I want you to imagine what that looks like on the decoding end. Your XML parser is just humming along, decoding UTF-8 and lexing some tags, and all the sudden it comes across a big blob of fucking binary data in the middle of the document. Why was this allowed when the spec also defines a <base64> element??

The XML-RPC spec ought to come with a Surgeon General's warning that reading it might give you brain worms.
It could probably be made to work, but would it reduce any GC work compared to any other kind of object pool? The returned value will still be accessible from some stack root and need to be scanned, I think regardless of whether the arena was already scanned - the arena would mark the span of the T itself, but any subfields with pointers would need to be scanned from the T as it would need the type information. And if T has no pointer subfields it would not be scanned anyway. So maybe best case you save a mark per T?

The advantage of a bump allocator is being able to throw it all out at once at the end and never have to check it while "in use", and I don't think Go's GC would let you do that.
"source-available" usually means you don't want contributions and forks, is that the case?

Are you getting anything by making the source available? Maybe you should make it proprietary.

There are some licenses like the LGPL which will forbid some companies to bundling your software in some ways. This license is forbidden at Google, as an example.

Which brings me to the topic of open source licenses and corporations. If you're hoping some big company will use and sponsor your project, they usually have strict license requirements (anything "custom" or outside the OSI-approved list will need extra approvals internally).
The Sistine chapel and Vaticans Museums at least once in a lifetime. I suggest taking a guided tour and book in advance (as everything in Italy).
The problem is advertising.

The reason we have come to this is because there is real FOMO in Megacorp marketing departments across the globe.

The way to solve it is to bring forward evidence that despite the info graphics and impression statistics and dashboards, targeted advertising by tracking users does not bring in more sales than say showing your ad on a relevant content page.

Showing me ads for bicycle helmets because from my profile you know I bought one on another site is idiotic. However, showing me an ad for fishing rods when I'm looking for fishing supplies stores would probably be a good idea.

If you can prove that than all of ad words and facebook non-sense and user tracking is busy work with no value added.

Then maybe we could go back to a saner web.
> You will need: group of cigarette smokers, piece of ice, knife.

OK. Curious where this is going.

> Where there is a group of people most of whom have a burning cigarette in their hand or mouth, you can play a smart little trick which shows how unreliable our senses are. Without letting anyone see, make a point on a piece of ice with a knife. Dry it well, then press it firmly against the neck of one of your friends. He will be startled and perhaps angry because you, according to him, have held the burning end of a cigarette against his neck.

Yikes! Legitimately so I would think. On the other hand, while finding a gaggle of smokers is harder than it used to be, the subset of adolescent and post adolescent boys who find it amusing to injure, inflict pain and confuse their friends still seems limitless.

> Then it is your turn to be surprised and show him the piece of ice.

Still might get punched.
Yes to your statement. I'm not quite sure what you're asking with the question, but will try.

I mean you're increasing the complexity of your explanation I guess, and if you don't draw the distinction quite right you might be doing so for no explanatory benefit and a net reduction in communication effectiveness. But there are other reasons quantized spin is important and relevant compared to, say, the net angular momentum you have around Detroit at the current time.
But if the matter on the big bang was limited wouldn't a limit on the universe size based on how much matter exists?
It's actually incoherent. The author concludes that we need to move away from fossil fuels as a species. So AC is fine then, yeah? Or is the plan to give ourselves heat stroke until we figure out sustainable energy? Why is my higher standard of living being compared to those in Africa? I don't live in Africa.
There are actually far less energy intensive ways to make houses cool...

Everything from painting the roof in special IR emitting and visible light reflecting paint...

To using evaporative cooling (even a small amount of water can make a large cooling effect).

To having large amounts of insulation to keep things cool in the daytime and cooling stuff down at night when the outside is cooler.

To using chilling loops deep underground where the soil is far cooler, or into rivers (where the water is typically cooler) than surface temperatures.

There are so many options for getting coolness with lower energy cost and lower eco-harm... I think it's a real shame we haven't done just a little more R&D to make them viable and commonplace instead of electrically driven air-air heat pumps which really gobble energy.

> This is a fundamental property of any diff-algorithm which the virtual DOM relies on. I don't think that is unreasonable, and IMO it is not something that adds significant cognitive load.

I think it's a leaky abstraction nonetheless, regardless if it causes issues in practice. But if it's not a significant issue to users, that's fine; personally I'd prefer to work in UI frameworks that avoid redundant diffing work by design (outside of cases like lists where it's difficult to avoid).
I would be very much interested in such a book :)

> the extremely young and poor communicating staff

That's is a huge issue in our industry

I am by no means any kind of expert in this. One thing I often see, is a developer offering management a choice, A and B, and then being unhappy that they chose wrong, agianst his advice.

That's fundamentally wrong - your proffeshional duty is to present to non-experts options that make sence, if option B doesn't make sence, don't present it at all. Present A as a technical nessesity, and if they can't handle it, they will let you know. Like Yes Prime minister discussion of the foreign office.

I think the 'am' constraint is meant to force you to shift your perspective from an internal frame of what you think you 'are' to an external frame of what do you 'do' through actions to/for other people and the world in general. Maybe these actions support what would be on your 'am' list, but maybe they don't and that might be a hint that you may not be who you think you are.

I read the `practice this' part as meaning that you should actively be thinking more about how your actions affect the people and world around you, and less about how the people and the world are affecting you.
About the names of these products, horse meat is traditionally called "hamburgerkött" in Swedish. It literally translates to "hamburger meat" (related to the city of Hamburg, and not the dish hamburger).
It's complicated but it feels like there is a huge aspect of personal branding/influencer/side hustle/etc. culture that's about making money any way you can and that to disdain it is to be "privileged."
We're talking a lot about "selling out" but maybe not so much about the bigger issue of his work leaving his control and becoming a property that would be used all sorts of weird ways.

If you want a cautionary tale, look at the Iron Giant. A thoughtful and interesting character whose whole arc is choosing peace is now shoved into things like Ready Player One [1] as a fighting weapon.

There is an "aggressive normal" one can reach and live within for a while. It requires a schedule that includes daily cardio, a strict healthy diet, and attention to all the guides and rules for how to "live healthy" as well as how to "study in a University setting" but you're not in a university setting, you're in your post University life still pushing at that same "Dean's list" level.

I managed to live like this for a good decade and a half, pushed into it by a dotcom startup in '99. I simply liked the aggressively analytical life style and used it to transition from video games to VFX, become a specialist within VFX (actor replacement), get an MBA in less time than normal, do my own startup, write and acquire a global patent, go bankrupt, change industries to FR & AI, and become a principal engineer in that industry. Writing FR software simply exhausted me, and I lost (or aged out) of my ability to maintain such an aggressive schedule. While "in the zone" it was amazing how much I could do in a week.

Roman here.

The historical area in the city center is much bigger than people think, it could take 3/4 days just walking around to see everything, without stopping for a visit, so take that into account.

Also, it's pretty hot right now (around 35-37 degrees Celsius), mind that too.

I won't give you the usual list of monuments and such, you can find all about them in any travel guide or IG/tik tok account, but don't miss the visit to Colosseum and the forum (especially the forum),book tickets in advance it'll save you a lot of time at the ticket office under the sun, do the same if you thought about visiting the Vatican museums.

A spot that's not usually under the radars is Terrazza Caffarelli (https://www.terrazzacaffarelli.it/) on top of Campidoglio (Capitoline Hill), you'll find a nice rooftop bar there with a beautiful view.

Edit: I totally forgot about the Museum and Crypt of Capuchins in Via Veneto, there's a San Francesco painting by Caravaggio and, if you are not disturbed by that stuff, a crypt entirely decorated with monks' bones and skulls. There are literally hundreds of them and thousands bones.
It's pretty unusual, but kinda great if you ask me.

I'm biased because I live there, but if you wanna eat near the Colosseum my advice is to try Taverna Romana for roman recipes and Tettarello for pizza. Those are two of my favorite places to eat in Rome in general.

I don't know how long are you staying but if you get the chance go to the beach one day. The south is the best, especially Sabaudia that is just below Odyssey's famous Mount Circeo, but you gonna need a car to go there.
