Besides having lsp (language server protocol), Visual C++, CLion and others, I have been successfully using CMake/Meson paired with Conan and I can tell from experience that it is amazing what you can achieve.

Someone will say Cargo or whatever, which is nice and simple. But with these tools you can choose all details and optimizations as well, something that other tools just hide. But you can still keep it simple with a conanfile.txt for your dependencies and the stock add_executable etc. in CMake/Meson and get done with it. If you feel CMake is subpar (bc its syntax and DSL are terrible, I agree with that) then you can use Meson. It works pretty well.
Unless you made the observation personally, or personally know the fellow who made the observation, you should take such stories/studies with a grain of salt.

It's the sane approach.
Major problem with GC languages is that it is horribly to link against libraries that ships with a GC. Lets say I want to use 10 libraries, if each has their own GC then my program is now running with 10 GC's each trying to optimize itself, which isn't a tenable situation.

So system level libraries has to work without a GC, even though system level programs can work fine with a GC.

I'm pretty sure I've said this on previous mentions of htmx, but I'll say it again: this reminds me of the old SPF framework youtube published.

http://youtube.github.io/spfjs/

SPF was a bit more focused on being easy to merge into an existing server side app.

I am glad to see this and hope it has some legs. It could help free us from the need to write every UI in JavaScript(ish).
Oh yeah, I know. Let me rephrase - do you actually leverage the functionality that git (through Github/Gitlab) provides you in your note-taking? Do you go back in the history to see what you committed - do you bisect or look at meta, or commit in atomic ways so that things are more "organized" from a timeline perspective?
Assuming that the joins are always joined against the views, not the raw tables. This introduces an opportunity for a mistake.
It would be great to sell 10x the units, but theyre profitable and chugging along just fine. It's exhausting tho working on the same problem for years with incremental steady growth, but it's working. I understand the frustration at times.

I imagine some company will finally get their shit together, and start buying wholesale and installing in their cars as an option. Until that time it'll continue to grow and still be a niche product
There is an overlap in the two. Copyright can be used as a defense against folk who believe, "Everything on the internet not behind authentication is commons". Often these folks point to books, magazines, etc in reference to their argument, which is certainly bad faith, but that's why copyright arguments come up.

A reference to one such comment in this thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32150193
a decentralized alternative supporting user concerns instead of corpo crap is trivial to implement
Doubtfully legally "required" to avoid liability, but everything you can do to knock down arguments that you injured a third party by warning them of the danger really takes the air out of lawsuits. You can point to the warning to discourage from filing lawsuits, to encourage dismissal, or to make winning a case more likely.
I just mark as spam.

I like the abuse@domain.tld idea though. I would try that first in your case.
Good to know. What do you were tests look like?
It's even worse: the views that folks are getting all worked up about, aren't their own personally formed opinions -- they are being programmed with these opinions via media, advertising, etc.

Then we hold these opinions so strongly that if we disagree about anything at all -- any nuance, out of the infinite menu of "correct" opinions -- we argue bitterly ... driving apart friends, families, etc.

We must learn to hold opinions more lightly and to value direct experiences & physical relationships with real people, more than virtual experience.

It's sad because at the end of the day we all have so much in common, but we are becoming convinced that we're so different and what's more, that others are in fact evil people. Great pain and trouble might come from this trend.
what languages you learn at university highly depends on the specific school you are at, the professors, and which companies are donating the most money. it's certainly not a great representation of what is going on in the industry as a whole.
In case you actually wanted to know, there seem to be two key incidents that led to Black Rifle losing their reputation as the place to get right-wing coffee.

The major one was an incident involving Kyle Rittenhouse. Shortly after his release from prison, he was photographed smiling and wearing some Black Rifle swag. This happened at a fairly sensitive time for Black Rifle, which was in the middle of opening its first physical coffee shop (in San Antonio, I think). The owner/founder posted on social media some negative commentary about Rittenhouse and indicating that the swag was not given by the company and did not represent the company's support of either Rittenhouse or his actions. As you might expect, the social media "conversation" on the subject got very hot very fast. One of the smaller right-wing coffee shops stepped into the fray and became very vocal supporters of Rittenhouse and his defense, making a bit of a name for themselves (and possibly a lot of money).

The lesser event actually occurred first, and was also some commentary that the owner/founder of Black Rifle Coffee made. I wasn't following the Food Partisanship beat at that time, so I don't know exactly what was said, but he posted to social media some commentary about gun rights that was less guns-for-all than you'd expect from a company with their imagery (and product names), and that talked about the pro-Trump part of the Republican party as not being the good guys, whether armed or not.

There's been some debate about the degree to which these incidents were about a company trying to continue to grow (and thus needing to gain mainstream "legitimacy") or whether the founder was actually never a right-wing ally -- but either way, these events were seen as a betrayal by a portion of the right-wing coffee community.
The article doesn’t address what happens if you pick the wrong (too small) model. I guess the static linker will catch certain cases, and the dynamic linker/loader will catch certain other cases, but will all cases be caught by one of those two, or can the compiled instructions end up being executed, leading to incorrect memory accesses?
If you don't want to read 10,000 words, why do you want to comment on the words? It makes little sense to read a four-word title and just assume that you know what the rest of it says.

I remember as a young man in San Diego, being able to go see a day game or doubleheader. It wasn't cheap if you wanted good seats, but you could often find someone scalping their tickets for a decent price. Once, in 1984 I was able to get a pair in the first row right off first base. The memory still sticks with me today. Jack Murphy Stadium didn't charge for parking, so it was just gas, tickets and beer/hotdogs. I think the day cost me and my buddy like $30 each in 1984, and seeing Tony Gwynn was priceless. According to the Internet, that's about $85 in today's simoleons. Now these were like the best seats in the house and I got lucky with the scalper.
This was not the case in 2016.
Worst-case drought, as in, for how long. Not the worst-case scenario for the reservoir.

If they knew the worst-case drought possible would last N days, they could design the reservoir to hold N+1 days worth of water. Alas, they don't know N.

Edit: Near end of day... Can you tell? Wrote draught instead of drought.
D has also taken a big step forward in being able to directly import C code. You can do things like:

import stdio;

and it will compile stdio.h with the builtin C compiler, making all the declarations in it available to your D code.
You don't think comparing the current defacto standard low-level languages (C/C++) to Rust shines any light on the issue you raised? [1]

C/C++ : 6.17%
Rust : 0.29%

This was addressed in one of the linked sources. What would you accept as evidence, then?

It goes like this:

* 13B from a party of banks (i.e. Morgan Stanley and friends), in exchange for who knows what (private equity?)

* 12.5B from pretty much the same party of banks but as a loan that takes Musk's TSLA stock as collateral

* 21B from Musk itself (idk under what conditions)

So he could easily "not afford it" if he wanted to.
The problem with the typical rants about C++ is that you guys are outdated.

With Conan you can consume over 1,000 packages directly from build systems and with way more control than what Cargo seems to offer. Take a look. I did use it for a while and compared to 15 years ago things are way better now.
I live in an area that gets a lot of rain during 9 months of the year (and this past spring was the wettest spring in memory - it just wouldn’t stop raining hard. The local rivers even reached low flood stage.) So, my initial thought is our rates probably won’t go up. So we are fine. But reading this article I realized that what will go up is food prices. The prices have already gone up, but will probably go up a lot more.
Interesting. Given they've dealt in the VR space before, and registered the trademark, this would seem to be a compelling case. I wish them the best.

My point is that work is not that personal anymore. The best example is probably Amazon, which is running out of people in some areas due to massive churn over the last few years. No point in taking stuff personally in a highly volatile environment - both you and your employer are expected to be replaced.
I also occassionally mourn the death of the word Meta, It was such a beautiful and succinct word.

Meta means about the thing itself. It's seeing the thing from a higher perspective instead of from within the thing, like being self-aware.

Not to forget the words like Metadata, Meta-physics, Meta-analysis, Metameme.

Long live Meta[adjective].
George Monbiot: Small changes can't tackle extreme weather
So you say.

It was and is a speculative technology, but what is the harm in reallocating funding from say, fossil fuel subsidies, into fusion R&D? Even as a purely scientific endeavor, who knows what kinds of useful knowledge and applicable by-products might be found along the way. If fusion is such a dead end, why have there actually been new discoveries made over the past several years, even if they might be hyped? Do you believe MIT/CFS, TAE, JET, or ASIPP are just burning money or something? Who are you to claim that a technology is impossible? Skepticism in fission does not have to convert to the dismissal of fusion.
Really wish George is successful with comma.
Fantastic concept and one of the sharpest brains to tackle this problem.

So no, not really.
I think you misunderstood.

That quote is saying that planners have no way of actually predicting how bad the worst possible drought will be for the area serviced by the reservoir over the lifetime of the reservoir, so they can't actually design the reservoir to handle the worst-case scenario.
> - Some features I'm interested in are being able to install libraries

Might be tricky to achieve, as I don't think we can load arbitrary files at runtime in Obsidian. What could possibly work, is loading libraries via HTTP and evaluate them in Wielder after that, but would be tricky is my guess. Worth looking into to though.

> or a recommended path for getting access to libraries via RPC to a less limited runtime. For example, lets say I want to use the hugginfaces API to do text extraction within my note. Clojure has some great tools for running arbitrary Python code from within it, but how can I leverage that code from within Weilder.

If you can run a HTTP server locally (via Python's http.server for example), with the right headers set regarding CORS, you should be able to just use JavaScript `fetch` to GET/POST/PUT stuff to locally running servers. In Wielder, you'd do something like `(js/fetch "http://localhost:8080/read-data")` and use it just like you'd use any JavaScript Promise.

> - Is there planned support for importing from a namespace in another note? My current workflows are everything goes into one note and then I just hide the sections with the code so they don't distract but sometimes there are pages worth of code. I expect over time I'll find a lot of things that have common implementations.

Yeah, I'm currently thinking and playing around with how to achieve this, hopefully via supporting Clojure's `ns` declarations directly, so you can do `(ns my-vault.a-page)` in one document and then simply `(ns another (:require [my-vault.a-page :refer [a-func]]))` in another.

For now (with a bit bad UI I'd admit), you can use the normal Obsidian including to reuse code from multiple pages, just uploaded an example here: https://wielder.victor.earth/Examples/Embed+code+from+other+...

Not the best UX directly, and looks bad, so hopefully the whole `ns` endeavor will work out instead, but will take some time before I can implement that correctly.

Thank you! And thanks a lot for the feedback, it's very helpful.
There's more software engineering companies, than "hard" engineering companies.
California is very well placed to take advantage of cheap solar energy.

I watched the video and I'm not sure I even caught what the problem was supposed to be? There was a vague implication that solar and batteries were expensive, but I didn't see any actual comparison to how much gas and nuclear would cost as an alternative.

Solar PV is the cheapest available energy, and California will probably generate about 3/4 of its energy with it. Currently about 50% of their electricity is gas, so whenever the sun is shining they can stop burning gas and save money and carbon.

Solar PV plus lithium batteries are already cheaper than peaking gas and so being rolled out for purely financial reasons and the price gap is only widening.

So when do the problems start?
Running projects in rootless containers from the beginning goes a long way for baseline workstation security, clarity about project dependencies, and ease of managing multiple environments.

Strongly recommend additionally keeping work isolated to employer-owned hardware, though.
In my layman opinion...

> Isn't the onus on investigating if a company is fit for acquisition is the one wanting to acquire the company?

Yes.

> Unless Twitter is knowingly lying about its numbers (and I don't see any evidence that it's intentionally lying about the bot numbers), does Musk even do a proper due diligence here?

And, this is where the monkey is buried. In previous Twitter fillings, they claimed in various forms humans, active users, or such when presenting monitizable eyeballs. They refer to them as monetizable daily active usage or users (mDAU)[0 Twitter 10-K 2022]. And, mDAUs are defined as:

> ... We define mDAU as people, organizations, or other accounts who logged in or were otherwise authenticated and accessed Twitter on any given day
through twitter.com,...

According to the filling

> We have performed an internal review of a sample of accounts and estimate that the average of false or spam accounts during the fourth quarter of 2021 represented fewer than 5% of our mDAU during the quarter.

Musk is saying I want to do "investigating", but Twitter is not forthright about the underlying data.

Yes, because programmers etc just love to build tools that squeeze every last nickel out of people by using dark patterns etc. It's the suits that are always pushing pricing efficiency in my experience, not the nerds.
At grid scale?
It is possible, but nobody did it.
The same happens when you apply real world standards to a 10% bet. You eventually will go below the minimum bet with an infinite sample size.

Martingale eventually stops because you don't have an infinite bankroll.

Proportional betting eventually stops if you can't gamble less than a penny.

Neither strategy can give long-term profit on a neutral EV bet

It's a shorthand for the type of business idea that has no goal other than short-term optimization. Certainly people without an MBA can do this as well, but the MBA is the archetype of "if it makes money soon, we should do it".

I'm less likely to use triggers, but I'll say I pretty much always want proper foreign key relationships set up in the database. Unique and other constraints too. In principal I might agree with you that it's an application level concern, but being able to setup these kind of invariants and trust that they will be enforced even in the face of bugs in my code (and there will be bugs in my code) is just too powerful to let go of in the name of purity. I'd much rather let a bit of business logic creep between multiple layers that discover that I have a whole bunch of orphaned records and no sensible way to reconcile them.

The value of Twitter is in my opinion based on real eyeballs, ergo, spam accounts falsely inflate the value of the company.
Why are you making fun of what I value then? How is that pompous of me to find someone whom I would be compatible with so I don't end up divorced like half of marriages?
I don't know the answer to their puzzle. I really don't and I feel like I'm hurting The Industry and those in it because of that.

I'm a savage software engineer with a mutt academic pedigree, even though I'm sidling closer to the civilized EE side. But I really don't know if that's the right choice, ya know?

So, I'll spiral into further existential dread because I can't coordinate these choices with others.

You cannot receive an award for activities for which you have decision-making authority.

"Whistleblower" in a legal sense has to mean that someone _above_ you asked you do to the illegal activity.
I agree.

Although I still think it should be possible to make some things obsolete in C++. The technical debt is real, and the language can hardly improve if old codebases are slowing down the evolution of the language.

I already wrote several times that I would like a new C++-like language, but without the complexity of C++. D, zig and rust are fine but they're not simple languages to use. I want the nice things of C++ (string, a few containers, a bit of syntax sugar, the most useful std stuff), with enough simplicity from python or C.

I just use the simple parts of C++, and I only want those parts. I just want the KISS simplicity. Carbon is not that, neither is rust zig or D.
And these politicians putting their money where their mouth is means that you disbelieve the science?

When people like Joe Manchin refuse to take climate action, due to his investments in fossil fuels, doesn't that make you think we should take climate action?

Why does this sort of reasoning go only one way?
Agree with all of this, except I'd add Docker containers as a less severe step before going all the way to something like Qubes. Since the OP mentions Python and Node libraries, it's likely they're compatible with being run inside Docker containers, which should do a passable-but-not-perfect job at isolation.
