Only an acquittal, meaning the jury agreed that guilt was not proven beyond a reasonable doubt. One mistrial makes sense. Perhaps there was someone with doubts, but those doubts were unreasonable. Or there was one person who believed the accused was guilty and that person was unreasonable. This could be fixed with a new jury.

After two mistrials (for failure to reach a consensus) it’d appear that reasonable minds may differ and the case must not have been proved beyond a reasonable doubt.
Depends on the language. Since this year I am getting up to speed with JavaScript and TypeScript, and there are a lot of different notions around to learn. It really clicked for me just recently when I implemented my own little unit testing tool (https://www.npmjs.com/package/instatest). This touched many aspects of the ecosystem I needed to know about, and was yet pretty simple to do.
Regex should be kept to a minimum in an API because it is a known DOS attack vector. Sounds a bit worrying if they also have parameters that affect execution time.

> It's it a good language? Unknown.

I have personally written several thousand lines GCL (the generic version of BCL used at Google) and I can say that it can be pretty frustrating.

The difficulty and complexity of defining configurations using it really depends on the system you are configuring since you are (generally) just defining a set of static fields that are packaged into a protobuf and fed into whatever system you are working with.

Outside of syntax issues, it's up to the system you are configuring to provide concise config semantics and helpful error messages
Just good old 19th century play write logic.

In essence, it's about not seeing the role of an economic window of opportunity for opening up a then rapidly advancing segment of the "tech tree". E.g., the idea of the locomotive only became viable with the Napoleonic wars and the (at times) exponential increase in prices of horses and/or fodder (esp. between 1808 and 1824 in the UK, these spikes are also, when we see any major projects started). With maintenance costs of horse driven machinery rising, even marginal technology like early locomotives became viable, eventually leading to a mature technology, which is economical sound even in normal times. (We me see similar with rising natural gas prices in Europe, nowadays.) So, why hadn't this been pursued earlier? Well, it must have been because of the stubbornness of the ancestors. Usually, this is accomplished by ignoring that there had been always a difference between a commonly acknowledged working model and a higher spiritual truth, which seldom clashed, only when it came to claims that endangered the hierarchy. (E.g., the idea of everyone actually believing in a flat earth originates essentially in a 19th century play about Columbus. However, the T-shaped world map was never a working model, it conveyed a spiritual truth only. Columbus' problem was really him proposing that the world was smaller than generally assumed, thus there would be no room for another continent – for which there had been some evidence – and a direct way to India. Which is, as we know, not how it works.)
Eliminate customer service touch points from your business.
I’m no expert on the history of invention but I assume there’s some latency where a technology is discovered and it takes time to make it useful. And then that opens up new technologies to be discovered etc.

Something I’m curious about are what technologies sat around a very very long time with no real blocker for discovery. That it was as simple as “nobody thought to do it that way…”

That's a different sort of steam engine. From the article:

> But when we talk of the breakthrough “steam engine” in the eighteenth-century sense, we don’t mean a machine that exploits steam’s expansive, or pushing force. We actually mean a machine that does the exact opposite, exploiting the apparent sucking power that occurs when hot steam is rapidly condensed with a spray of cold water. It’s the relative weight of the atmosphere, compared to the sudden vacuum from condensing steam, that does all the work.

This article connects that sort of engine to (among others) Hero of Alexandria’s temple doors, rather than the aeolipile, though suggests that it might have been known to "at least a few aeolipile-users" as a way to fill the aeolipile with water.
Fastest way I learned was to rewrite an app I was intimately familiar with in the new tech.

Not the best way to go if all you want to learn is 1 piece of technology though.

There are a ton of downsides to hybrid or pure remote teams.

First, not everyone is an introvert. I feed off of the energy of seeing people in person. I get sleepy when I WFH.

Second, it's a huge hassle to get messages across when some people are WFH and some people are in the office.

Third, not everyone has a home that is ideal for work. Family. Noise. Pets. Internet connection. Etc.

Fourth, hybrid and remote miss out on hallway or kitchen connections that could lead to innovation or collaboration.

Fifth, eventually people who WFH will want to get out of the house to work. They'll first go to coffee shops. Then they'll realize that they aren't the best place to get work done. Then they'll ask the company to give them a stipend for co-working office hotdesks or dedicated desks. So the company now has to pay for an office for you and you're not even together with your coworkers anymore. Stupid.

Sixth, not all positions can be done at home. For example, hardware engineering. So now you have two class of workers in the same company. The ones who can save money by WFH and the ones who must be in the office. This is unfair.

Seventh, because of #6, you'll have have to accept less pay for WFH and location adjusted salary.

Eighth, you lose the sense of camaraderie.

Ninth, for startups, there's nothing better than to sit in a room together, make quick decisions together, look over each other's screen to help, and chit chat about the product which can lead to insights.

Tenth, if you're American or European, you're going to regret having pure remote or hybrid work in a few years. Because if you can do your job virtually, there are a ton of hardworking and smart people around the world who will do your job for a fraction of the price. I always tell people that you should be adamant of returning to the office ASAP because of this.
Also, a lot of empirical progress in ML didn't happen until people stopped worrying about explainability and theoretical guarantees. Remember when NNs were unfashionable?

We could easily put real economic assets and loans on-chain. The legal frameworks exist On-chain yields are now low enough and “real-world” interest rates high enough that there’d be demand. Delaware courts can and have enforced corporate entities governed by software.

This is interesting to see, and reminds me that I really have no idea how to sell myself. I spent 7 years on this exact thing--a project to archive a community Slack server to a crawlable website, even with full-text search that (IMO) worked better than Slack search. I made the code available for other communities to use, and never once considered that this was a sellable product. I shut it down this year after a flurry of folks started asking to be opted out of the archive.

I guess it depends on what you do. I usually work at low-level, so making lib interfaces myself is acceptable, but at a higher-level, one usually have to pile libs over libs to get anything done because that's the way things are done today (complexity is perceived as a non-issue as long as you can rely on some lib), especially on desktop and especially with most things related to "the web". DIY even for language bindings would take long, be exhausting, and probably not worth it for a prototype or a throwaway script.
> I find interesting that 'they' feel the need to do a character assination on the man

That's par for the course for the mainstream US (and Western, more generally, I would say) media nowadays. It wasn't always like that, but the last few years and especially the current war against Russia have accelerated this trend.

Fixed-wing flight is one. I remember that being a point in the aviation exhibit at the London Science Museum. Nothing was stopping people from building hang-gliders in at least the Renaissance, maybe earlier? But everyone was fixated on flapping wings.

Perhaps the better title is: Don't Assume a CEO is a Leader.

WFH is a subset of a condition of the market. If CEOs can't adjust to an obvious and inherent part of their responsibilities that's not good sign.

Yes, WFH can be awkward. Yes, it means change and adjusting. While there certainly are cases where WFH can't work. There are plenty of others where it does.

Figuring it out, whatever the market decides it is...that's the CEOs' job, yes?

Maybe this example was not the best as it is only in Windows for 10 years, NFS however as a component exists since at least NT 4.

Even if this exploit only touches completely new code, my point still stands that windows has multiple layers of archeology which were designed when security was an afterthought.

Some of these are preinstalled with Windows, use networking and run as SYSTEM (WMI, spool) others are used by enough components in windows they will never be removed yet it doesn’t seem they are undergoing any development (COM/OLE)

The heritage of a protocol doesn't matter much when it is implemented. Every web browser carries the "heritage" of http.

The intro was pretty rough, it expects a lot of knowledge about the topic. I almost stopped reading there. The second part that explains the possibilities and talks about real world performance impact was pretty interesting though, so, glad I kept reading.
You didn't need to throw yourself off a cliff though. Just think of something like Jockey's Ridge.
>If it's a single score, I'd still want to use null / int.

In your example, you still have to manually check if there's a value every time, but this is not compiler-enforced. Should you forget, you will get a runtime crash at some point (likely in production at a critical time) with some kind of arithmetic error. This wouldn't be possible with a simple sum type.

Also, a sum type with units of Score(Int) and NoScore won't allow assignments of any other "null" instances. Null in one spot is interchangeable with null in any other spot, and this can lead to bugs and runtime crashes. Null should be avoided when possible.

- to be a database admin interface for non-engineering users to display and edit a bunch of tables in postgres.

- having an interface around calling internal API's, with a page for input parameters

it's pretty good for these use cases, it allows non-engineering people to do some things that would otherwise require a custom built UI.

> It seems like some people, just because they are smart in one area, think they know everything. We see this with many VCs, Elon Musk, Vitalik etc.

Totally correct. Elon's wild claims on solving FSD (Fools Self Driving) seemed to be a total disaster, and Vitalik's claims on his decentralized slot machine utopia 'Ethereum' on how using a generalized blockchain to solve 'anything' from voting, social networks, DAOs, NFTs, etc has manifested into a tinkerbell griftopia [0] as feared by even the most fierce critics of blockchains.

Finally, VCs really don't care on being wrong on thousands of failed investments. They just need one massive return to make up for all of it hundreds of times over and somehow they are viewed as 'experts' which is a great example of the Texas sharpshooter fallacy. We don't hear them screaming about Clubhouse which was hyped to the extreme since it is isn't doing great as expected after being copied to death.
