Basically, all the front-end code on the server side is written in Hack, because it was originally written in PHP. My understanding is that general application logic, like permissions, is handled by libraries written in Hack. Also stuff like templates (for HTML or other UIs, including CSS), etc.

Hack is recognizable as a PHP derivative but the experience of writing Hack is very different from the experience of writing PHP.
It was rather a failure to deliver on the promises than perceived as a threat to Zig and the target audience for both differ enough that V doesn't have an effect on the success of Zig nor does Zig have an effect on the success of V. They are both reaching for success within their own domains with some but not much overlap.

I know you're very fond of V but misrepresenting criticism or a negative view of the project as "fear", "perceived threat", and so on is rather dishonest and a disservice to the project. The above is a comparison of before release and long after where there's been a chance to evaluate V for what it is rather than for what it advertised.
Details: The engine I'm using here is Midjourney. Because there's no ability for consistency of characters (plus general engine limitations), I've found it works great for backgrounds. Then, characters can be quickly doodled over top.
"We don't do that here" is not a show of power. Cultural norms don't come from a boss or an authority figure, they come from a team.

This (and a lot of other related arguments in this thread) would probably be a lot clearer with less contentious examples, like "don't push a deploy after 4pm," than with hot-button political topics. If you go to push a deploy at quitting time and someone says "We don't do that here", you wouldn't think they're on a power trip, you'd think they don't fully trust their automation tests.
QE4 ended in March '22. I'm not sure the particular nuances of the timeline matter to the person asking the question.
During the pandemic (and also during the response to 2008 recession) the Fed has been injecting cash into the market by buying Treasury securities and mortgage-backed securities. This is what "Quantitative Easing" is, and is a relatively new tool used by the Fed that they started leaning on when interest rates really could not go much lower. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantitative_easing)

Now the Fed has a really large backlog of these securities, and they are starting to unwind that by selling those securities off, effectively removing cash from the economy and slowing down economic activity (and therefore hopefully inflation).
Interest rates are not a single set percent, they are in a range IIRC. So it's going from 1.5-1.75 to 2.25-2.5, a 75 basis point increase.
I miss the days when Google Maps was frequently adding (relatively) dense coverage for new countries. I guess they decided the economics weren't there for it.
That's supported here! You can do:

for (auto const &member : enum_traits<E>::members())
{ std::cout << member.name() << std::endl; }
I'd say so, yes. Arguably all strokes of employee could consider leaving as they'll have their experience and it probably looks just fine on a resume. I think it'd look better to leave than be booted at this time too.

More broadly, I'm not sure this really is a strategy per-se. If Mark had a true grand vision for Facebook and Meta I think we would have seen it by now. I think this was just some money-man's recommendation made by looking at numbers on a spreadsheet.
I guess I was unclear - i was referring to the "just disappearing and not even knowing it" part more than the experience of something lapsing whilst you are unaware.
I have the same experience with a handheld garmin from like 20 years ago. This was in Finland while boating, the gps suddenly decided we were going around 700mph heading north north west. It lasted for around 30min or so before it returned us to where we were. I remember using a Garmin GPS 45.

The practice of plotting case maps like this started during the 1854 cholera epidemic. The cholera case map helped discredit the theory that cholera was transmitted by miasma, and supported the theory of fecal-oral transmission. Just some related history that you might find interesting.

Highest recorded temperature in Arkansas was 49C. Maybe it will get up to 50C sometime. That wouldn't be especially alarming.
They already considered it in the past, in fact Mark penned an email explaining why and how it would be beneficial to their broader ambitions to own more of the stack as a hedge for the future of computing. You can read more about it here:

It will likely happen at some point, if not by Meta than it'll be another tech giant like Amazon, Google, Microsoft, or even Apple.
I personally believe that the value of a human life is priceless (in a subjective sense). However in an objective sense you can use a heuristic to figure out damages a company should payout. I would love to know how the jury came up with that number.
Impersonating a philosopher sounds easy, especially if the AI was trained on her writings. It's simply a matter of stringing together phrases, much like Eliza could do years ago.
It does not single them out in opposition to the group. Say "we don't do that here" puts the transgressor on one side and the "we" on the other side. Saying "when you do" is not putting the transgressor on a side, but rather placing the onus on them.

My statements don't put the transgressor in opposition to the group, is what I should have said. But I think that thats actually the intention of this author and I don't agree with it.
Why does that look absolutely horrid on my screen... Not that it is anything special, but cheap gaming monitor... And I can't link single word they present to it...

Ok I checked again. The landing page at https://www.cloudflare.com/en-gb/products/workers-kv/ both the main `Sign Up` and `Contact Sales` buttons point to the same contact sales form so I guess I clicked on that Sign Up button when I wanted to try it out. This doesn't happen in the other Sign Up links, like the one up right and the Get Started links in the pricing/overview pages. They go straight to Sign Up. I will try to file a ticket if I can.
"botching all the work" and "not meeting french quality criteria" are so far away. Almost as laughable as quoting le Canard Enchainé as more than a tongue in cheek rumour mill.
At least with TV shows this isn't a problem. Everything is dumped on day 0 so the original releases are preserved. It wouldn't surprise me if there are hundreds of thousands of copies of the original releases floating out there due to torrents.

It was actually a much bigger issue in the past. You pretty much cannot get the theatrical release of the star wars episode 4. I think the best we have are the laser disc rips. To me, that's a a bigger "memory hole", happening way before big tech.
Dollars becoming more expensive is the exact opposite of inflation.

My mother was huge fan of his, and of his Gaia hypothesis.

She even traveled to the UK, last century, as a sort of "pilgrimage," and met with him.
In any case, the cost of a dog bowl and some free tennis balls is minimal compared to the potential benefit if even one break-in is prevented.

When I sold security systems, I learned that one of those lawn signs alone that says "Protected by XYZ Security" has a deterrent factor. Cameras (even if they're fake or deactivated/unmonitored) also have a pretty significant deterrent factor. See https://www.angi.com/articles/do-security-signs-and-decals-s...
Try building outside WSL. I had the same problem, but moving the app to standard Windows improved the startup times from ~30s down to ~10s. Never bothered figuring out what caused the differences.

Clearly one can write web services in C++. Meta does not really, though. It is Hack code that talks to most web clients (and python for Instagram). The C++ code sits behind that. All of the databases, the caches, the indexing services, the ads ranking and selection are written in C++ and talk Thrift to each other and to the Hack code.
Firefox on Linux is what works best for me. Konqueror doesn't work at all with TradingView, and Firefox loads faster, too. Chrome is a huge risk to user freedom and security. I refuse to install it.
The person you are replying to was saying that daily highs of 50C aren't far off.
Disagree. C++ is the most difficult - the compiler accepts programs which Rust would reject and then they segfault or worse.
I just use Apple Notes now.

Syncs automatically across devices.

Super easy to share content from each web page or app directly with notes.

Has folders and tags to organize stuff.

They always add new features - like smart folders.

I keep all the random notes there and also write longer essays that I publish on my site.

So everything is in one place.
> Then why would block any investigation from outside the Chinese government?

I can easily believe that the Chinese government, not exactly known for its openness, would be keen to block investigations into their bio research labs, regardless of what happened in Wuhan.

The potential upsides are few - would any doubters be silenced if the investigation found nothing?

I can also believe that even if they have no reason to believe that the lab leak theory is true and their internal investigations have turned up nothing, that they're not entirely convinced there is zero chance there wasn't a lab leak.

Even if they think there's only a 1% chance there was a lab leak, then the idea of an outside investigation is clearly dangerous to them. Blocking an investigation is safer.
Good call-out - definitely a bit of a simplification there. We account for this in our terminal grid by allocating an empty cell following any double-width glyphs (e.g.: emoji and wide chars, as you mentioned).

Tried out your example in Warp, and the alignment is as you described: https://i.ibb.co/Jcwcnwn/image.png

Core Text supports rasterizing at sub-pixel offsets (though some configuration of the graphics context is necessary to do so properly) by applying a transformation to the graphics context before the rasterization call. I'll definitely have to figure out the FreeType angle when we start working on Linux support; if I uncover anything (and remember this comment thread), I'll report back with my findings. :)
As they say: "the US dollar is our currency but it is your problem"
> the opposite of whatever's on their pronoun pin

Well, yes, obviously? They have a pronoun pin. That's not a matter of disrespecting that person (as you note, we do it to everyone); it's a matter of disrespecting pronoun pins on principle.
Don’t know why you’re getting downvoted. Raising rates in the US has a deep and interesting affect on the inflation of other countries.
The primary use case for Rust being CLI is somewhat strange and speaks to non-technical considerations. Does anyone really think there is an advantage Rust brings here over everything else -- Golang, Python etc. Rust community seems to go after "hot" areas in hopes of getting traction, fully understandable. Writing web services is another area Rust people jumped into looking at the popularity of Golang. Most recent "hot" area being crypto. The reality is none of these areas is a sweet spot for Rust and will remain niche (in comparison to other languages). The sweet spot is low level systems programming and displacing C++ (of which there is a real and desperate need). If the community can focus on interoperability with C++ (at the gnarly level), would be make a big difference to adoption.
Big dams and bridges would get my vote (Hoover, Aswan, etc.)

Possibly launch facilities at Cape Canaveral and Boca Chica.
In the original version of The Hobbit, the ring is just a magic ring and Gollum willingly bets the ring on the riddle game. When Gollum can't find the ring, he instead offers to lead Bilbo out of the cave.

In later versions, the bet was if Gollum wins he eats Bilbo, if Bilbo wins Gollum shows him the way out.

It is then presented that Bilbo told everyone the first story although the second was the truth. Which is why the first version appears in The Hobbit as the conceit is that it is an account written by Bilbo or at least sourced from his writings.
I'm glad people are raising awareness for this sort of thing.
Ask HN: Going All-In on Rust
I am a full-time engineer working for an MNC where the tech stack is Java / Python. Outside of work, I spend most of my time in competitive coding and teaching programming to friends/family.

I am looking to transition to Rust for all my side projects (and possibly everywhere in the near future). I don't have any specific reason for this transition other than to move away from Java / Python.

I want to continue my competitive coding practice and my side projects that are mostly low-level systems. I am looking to build a niche for myself and see Rust as an escape (something I can explore and grow with). I might be overplaying my hand here, any suggestions would be helpful.

Is there anything to keep in mind before I take this plunge?
So, tuk-tuks very much not like the ones they have in Asia then?

As for the size of vehicles, it kind of depends what you consider normal-sized. What do you think I should get instead?
A song I listen to regularly on Spotify once got changed to a slightly different mix, and it totally messed with my brain for a while. I realize in this case it didn't actually happen, but it can and does across the internet regularly. In the cases where I do catch it with no mention of an edit, it causes unsettling dissonance.

Maybe I'm starting to see why Twitter doesn't want an edit button.
I've done it twice with VW for ID4s. There's no special time period to order, and you don't need to talk to a dealership first, you can order from the VW website any time. If your car doesn't go into production until after a model year rolls over, then you get that newer model year.
Despite everything else he accomplished in his quite storied professional career as one of the last independent scientists... Including his work on the Viking mars landers! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Lovelock

To me he will always be the man who invented his own microwave to thaw frozen hamsters. The whole story is worth a watch since Tom Scott does an admirable job of explaining how he went digging up a weird fact expecting to debunk it only to wind up recording an amazing interview with James Lovelock https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tdiKTSdE9Y but if you’re impatient the interview with lovelock about cryopreserved hamsters and his "microwave" starts here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tdiKTSdE9Y#t=5m42s

The Federal Reserve has been working for the past few months agreeing on a plan to reduce the balance sheet. They are just saying that they are still continuing this work.
You are willfully missing the point.

Did you not hear about the heatwave in Europe last week? 50C is coming to places that have never had temps that high.
It sounds like we're talking about different things and I don't disagree with what you described. In the example you used, where people are unaware of where the line is, I would fully expect that a person caught unaware, would, without trouble, be able to deduce the reason.

It's the hardline bigots who, again in my experience, cannot tolerate being confronted and feign ignorance in an attempt to misdirect. I'm pretty sure, if you found yourself face to face with one of these, you would be able to identify them easily.
I can't say Go had the adoption I was hoping for.

It did well in the infra community (probably starting with docker) but, among my clients in services, I can think only of one failed startup who bet on Go (and actually failed because they decided to rewrite from node to go).
In short, it means this line will go down: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/WALCL

You can see it went up substantially in 2020 and 2021.
I wonder if they're just used to being around non spayed dogs / so they're kinda on edge in a way.

Local suburban / trained dogs around here mostly just want to play with each other / random people / kids. I think they might be used to that kinda lifestyle even if just by example from other dogs.
Yeah, if you get paid in dollars. I assume by the phrasing of the comment that is not the case.
You can read mine using netcat :P

No, that's what happens when your currency inflates. It's all relative.
Not when it becomes far more expensive in your home currency to buy dollars.
Nokia used to have a first class maps offering in India about a decade (more?) ago. Really well done and complete, for the time. They also had proper voice navigation, even in Indian languages.

But the problem with vendor locked services is that they tend to go down with the vendor. That's why we need a separation between the OS providers, device manufacturers and software providers.
Camera software is an area that is frustratingly closed off

Try to get Nikon replacement parts.

Or make your own color film.

Which reminds me that fully mechanical cameras are eminently hackable.

And that reminds me that I don't want to wade into the turing tarpit of custom software on my cameras.

Hell, I don't even want autofocus anymore. I want an optical system that is easy to focus manually.

YMMV.
It’s interesting that the only red spot in the US right now is next to Uvalde, TX
It's not my job to read the paper and look at the figures for you. Try putting the maps side by side and realizing they show the same geographic area.

Fig 2B is an exemplar, as is clear from the description: 'Schematic showing how cases can be near to, but not centered on, a specific location.'
Ah this is the problem I originally anticipated with : when I first came up with the idea too. You see the problem is then (if you force a space):

div {
color: blue;
: :hover {
color: red;
}
} /* (1) */

Is unable to represent

div {
color: blue;

/:hover {
color: purple;
}
} /* (2) */

(or if it (1) means (2) then it is unable to represent the A below)

In other words you can write

<div>Hi<span>there</span></div>

And using the first one get a red there on hover (A). But the second one intends to get a purple Hi there on hover (B). But You can't express that because the mandatory space clashes with the CSS (implicit) descendent combinator (space).
I keep a daily markdown file in a github repo.

* To search my notes I can pull + grep the files.
* To view a specific day's notes in my browser, github renders the file with images and everything.
* To upload images, I can paste from my clipboard into the notes using github's editor; they upload and link the images for me.

This mostly works for me because I hate typing on my phone -- I do all my actual notetaking on a desktop. If I use my phone for any note taking, it's a shopping or to-do list. For that I use google keep.

I tried using Notion but it costs money and isn't portable. Roam is similar. Unigraph is a similar tool that isn't publicly available yet but worth checking out if you like those tools.

Logseq is the closest thing to what I wanted, but you have to use their app and I like being able to add notes from any computer in just a browser. For work I keep my notes in a single Google Doc, which works surprisingly well, but doesn't work for my personal notes since I want them to be easily backed up and portable.
My old man + goth neighbor has an outdoor dragon statue / sculpture.

No break ins, must work.
I structure my notes on a topic as if it were a book.

- There's a table of contents.

- There are prerequisites for each section (links to other sections within the notes).

- There's a terminology section at the bottom has short definitions for all the new terms I should remember (software automatically links each usage of a term to its entry in the terminology section).
You might get charged for it.
I use Beat. Because it’s so fast! Other than that no specific structure.
This is what's called "open market operations," and it's basically the first echelon of attack on inflation. If the Fed sells government (and government agency) securities, then banks buy them, returning money to the Treasury and reducing the banks' lending liquidity. By reducing the money supply, the Fed can put a brake on inflation. The overall implication is that the Fed either wants a sharp anti-inflationary shock, or believes that longer-run secular inflation is in the cards, and is willing to cool the economy to manage that risk.
What’s the maximum size of a DNS response?
Published ceases tomean anything if everyone is treating everything as "in production". The point of Publishing is to render an immutable artifact fit for replication and mass distribution.

I'll second that. I was able to use that documentation to write javascript code that reads and queries a sqlite database. (Just as a learning exercise, I don't have a practical use for this.)
Can I use Apple or Google Maps with this at the same time?
Indeed, this article is embarrassingly wrong. Not sure how anyone could write

> The letter I [...] would be referred to with the phrase I per se, I, which means in Latin "I by itself (is the word) I."

It's the letter I, not the word. It's like a half-remembered explanation
Thanks, I'll pass that along to the right people.
My uncle was the one to introduce me to everything2 back when I must have been around 12 years old, by linking me to one of his writeups. I never created an account there, but was immediately pulled in by its curious mix of geeky information and beautiful writing. I voraciously read it throughout my teen years and am convinced it helped expand my vocabulary, and also probably reinforced my habit of aimlessly exploring information repositories (e.g., Wikipedia rabbit holes). I still sometimes return to it to be mildly amused at seeing present-day content presented in the same antiquated frontend that I don't think has changed much in 20+ years, because why mess with perfection?

I don't know anyone in my life who's heard of the site besides my uncle, but I enjoy showing it to friends and coworkers as an example of the type of website I grew up with, and which stands in a class of its own, at least to me.
I actually take my time because of something I heard years ago - that it's the hurrying that does damage down there. My shits are actually pretty healthy, but I just take my time, don't strain, and don't hurry things. If I don't have 15 minutes to shit, I'm overscheduled.
There's a bunch of resources on r/databasedesign.
This is what I had considered to be the state of things. The phrasing on initial read suggested to me that C++ & Rust were the default now for performance critical services (with Rust being a new add) and Hack was used where it made sense but not necessarily by default anymore. I think I may have discounted Hack's role too much.
Which heatwave killed 1,800 people and caused $125 billion in damage?
The opposite, in fact. I used to be mostly neutral about war, but now I would consider myself a borderline pacifist. After studying this war and its causes, I realized that it was the consequence of geopolitical actors (including the defense industry) acting in certain ways over the last few decades. It is the kind of game where the only move is to not play.
