It’s the equivalent to
‘yes’ in a subset of contexts where ‘yes’ would make sense, for example
‘Is he the guy you were talking about?’ 「是的」 would make sense to say yes. But it wouldn’t work as an answer like ‘yes, I like hiking’.

Putting Rust and Haskell in the same category always puzzles me a bit: I’d think Rust is more in the same category as C++?

Yeah, pretty sure that having to use an ETL layer before Excel qualifies as "It's literally impossible to do it in Excel".

It's only available after Excel 2019, and the behavior is different. There's also nothing that seems to indicate that it doesn't have the same issue with column types?

False, it's a tendency to return to a stable level of happiness despite positive or negative events. This doesn't happen if you get degenerative chronic illness (and it was debunked 50 years ago).
Asdf is a good idea in theory and pretty okay considering it's in Bash, but the execution is quite lackluster. I'm glad the maintainer is focusing on performance, but there are other areas that prevent me from using the tool:

- asdf uses way more commands than it needs to. Instead of glob pattern matching for files, it reads the output of `ls` (and _many_ very similar mistakes)

- When running functions, the output tends to be collected using $(). Since this is done so much, this realllyyyy slows down execution since subshell invocations are slowwww in bash. Better is to set the global variable `REPLY` and use that directly from the callee

- The command line interface is kind of verbise and clunky and a little unintuitive

- There are too many separate plugins to use and download. Too much code duplication between plugins

I hope this doesn't sound like a laundry list of gripes, but just things to improve upon for the maintainers - I understand how hard it is to write Bash that works everywhere. Personally, I've opted to build my own (partial) solution that implements these suggestions at https://github.com/hyperupcall/woof, but my hope is that asdf will become substantially better over the years

Similar to watching Intel scalp the entire industry, I don't think the US government cares who is in the lead, as long as that company is in their pocket. Apple's move to leapfrog the industry was smart, but also calls into question how actually efficient the chip is. If you compare the Apple A12z (their 7nm predecessor to the M1), to Intel's 7nm offerings, the performance starts weighing a lot closer in Intel's favor. In SIMD benchmarks, Intel can be 10-100x faster than ARM's NEON stopgap.

In other words, I'm really curious what the landscape will look like once Apple, Intel and AMD are all on the same node. I reckon x86 still has some life in it yet, a processor with AMD's IPC enhancements and Intel's process enhancements would cleanly smoke the ARM competition. It just remains to be seen if Intel or AMD will be the first to get there...
Vocal critics of which government response, and in which direction (too little or too much response)?

All the way through I felt like they might have been talking about anti-vaxx 'scientists', especially when they mentioned 'cancelling' and cited someone who was very anti-lockdown, but they managed to keep it general enough I couldn't be sure which side they ware taking.
Ok, that sounds like a disaster, and the 10 years part sounds like this was a temporary setup for a start-up that has outgrown it.

He's undermining the team's authority on their portion of the work, and it sounds like he's keeping the architect on a leash so tight that career growth is impossible. Additionally, the 3 week delay is inappropriate and evidence that he needs to butt out and learn to delegate.

As there's support from above on this, it sounds like it's unlikely to change until something goes badly wrong, sadly.
I published my first Python code in a while using a pyproject.toml and it was amazingly simple. As someone who was doing Rust for a while I really feel like they're learning from the modern ecosystems very well.
Ever since we tossed out Divine Right, our overlords have had to resort to increasingly-inscrutable systems to do the needful, and inscrutable systems are effectively the same as "no system" in this regard.

I tire of hearing excuses like "our judges can't adjudicate simple matters in fewer than three generations [because they are busy and have A Hard Job]", or "we can't have healthcare because the sous chef du jour did not include it on the menu, and we must respect the venerable and time-honored tradition of the sous chef du jour in designing the menu"

Just once, I'd rather hear them say "Obama of Nantucket relayed a vision in which 12 great dragons appeared, all pissed about the price of oil, the upcoming NATO summit, the Franklin County Republican primaries, and the wearing of pocket squares with striped suits. On healthcare, saith the Orange Dragon: put an onion in your sock and go to MedExpress if you get sick, and you'll probably be fine."

Even if nothing substantive changed, at least the comments sections and over-the-shoulder graphics on the news would be cooler, anyway.
If the hypothesis that going below 22C would activate brown fat burning & starving the tumor subsequently in due process, hold - this should have some evidence in people living in very cold climates (e.g. Siberians, Eskimos etc). I don't think the prevalence is statistically different in them. Would love to hear if someone knows more about it.
But did it? It came months after the the White House demand. Was the demand the cause of the ban? Or did Twitter blow off the White House, and some months later, for their own reasons, decide to ban him?

Is there any cause and effect here? Several months is a lot of lag time. Maybe if they had to run it through the lawyers, it might fit.

It is amazing that no one yet has posted about the Japanese language. Yes, "technically" there is a term for "no" (いいえ). In practice, outside of official documentation, almost no one uses it in daily life. (When you fill official docs, はい==yes, and いいえ==no.) There are so many stupid Japanese language training books that teach you about "いいえ", but you will never hear it in the Real World, except during language trailing dialogs! Most Japanese people will say "違います" (chiigamasu / "it is different") to avoid saying "no" directly.
> This is not a change that is happening, from my experience, in the Gaeltacht raised with traditional Irish speaking parents.

Of which there are less and less of. I think the only way Irish can survive in the long term is in a semi-creolized form with a lot of English influence. It's all well and good trying to codify a variety of "proper Irish", but realistically if it is to gain any amount of new speakers, it's going to have significant influence from the native languages of those new speakers—which will be English.

This isn't unnatural. Languages are influenced by non-native speakers all the time. See English: a Germanic language with much of its vocabulary derived from Norman French, Latin, and Greek, and a loss of almost all inflection save for some irregular verbs, and referring to ships in the feminine.

Look, I'd like as much as the next person to preserve Irish as native speakers speak it, but the chance to do that died over a century ago.

I sort of agree, but then why play sports or fantasy at all? Why not just turn to a hobby that inherently rewards creativity and boldness (most contemporary arts)?

Alternatively, in competetive environments, things that have stock trading or market mechanics mean that as soon as something becomes “common sense” it’s probably not the correct move anymore.

>A elderly guy - maybe in his 60s - was writing his book of poems on his computer and brought in a floppy disk because he wanted some advice on printing. We managed to find a plug in floppy drive but there was only an Excel file on the disk. I opened the file and he had written his poetry book in Excel cells, with widened columns and rows, complete with spaces to center text and indent paragraphs etc. When one cell got full of text he moved to the next. New poems were started a couple of columns over. I remember he also asked how to change the size of the font for the initial letter of each verse. He must have been using Excel 2003 or something because when he saw the ribbon, which was new to Excel 2007 he said it might not work properly because he used Excel. I tried explaining he should use MS Word. He said "oh I got a disk with that on." He pulled out another floppy and there was a file called houseke~.doc. I feared the worst. He had a Word table over several pages where he kept his home accounts, all beautifully typed in by hand, decimal points all lined up (hell I can't even do that now), not a calculation in sight - they were all done by a calculator and hand-entered.

This is inaccurate. There's never been a reason to not assign an A record to @.

The historic structure of DNS is that names were given to systems within a domain. So you might have pikachu.company.com, squirtle.company.com, etc. It wouldn't make sense to just assign an address to the domain itself because we simply didn't have the technology to drive sophisticated consolidated sites on one system. You might need to get some files off one host, and some off another. We didn't have load balancers, and we often didn't have drive space to hold everything in one place.

MX doesn't have this problem of scale, as MX specifies multiple systems per SMTP spec.

Sometimes people would create www.pikachu.company.com, and sometimes they wouldn't. The www prefix was sometimes a handy default, but certainly wasn't ubiquitous.

The real change here is the rise of single endpoints for a domain. This began by assigning "www" as place to look for web content for the entire domain and almost in unison people began to also add A records to the domain itself. After all, why wouldn't we?

CNAME is different, of course, because CNAME aliases all record types - not just A records.

I still don't know a better language for parallelism. Some alternatives can make up for being sluggish by employing parallelism. Haskell is already reasonably efficient (for my problems) and parallelism is trivial to add.

If their mind is blown by named ranges, they are going to faint when learning about the nice structure a proper table (Insert -> Table) gives!

It's so handy typing

=SUM(tbl_Sales_Transactions[Total])

And knowing you don't have to adjust the range of the named area as long as the table is the correct length. Far nicer than SUM(F:F) or SUM(F2:F1000) which can cause performance issues and could be exceeded when pulling in new data respectively.

Within the table, you can do this syntax to use items on the same row of data.

Broadly speaking: a developer-centric Airtable. A low/no-code environment to create and manage your database combined with a top-notch SDK that is automatically generated and easily accesible from within the UI. The idea being that a frontend developer or hobbyist with no backend/database/sql knowledge whatsoever could easily get a properly functioning database up and running for a (fairly) complex app.

Boy is this off-putting. Even amateur athletes and nobodies in hobbies I follow on Instagram are pimping anything and everything. I can't hate someone for trying to make a buck, especially as full-time athletes in non-lucrative sports, but it really leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

AI Unit Test Generation
Hi, Hackers! Unit tests are so boring I don't even know how to start. But, we at Machinet kinda automated it or made it much easier to write, whatever. So, if you're a Java developer, give it a spin. Meanwhile, I come back to writing these damn unit tests for our datasets...why..
Agreed, we started with Kafka, PostgreSQL and one other service in K8s with StatefulSets.

It was painful. We quickly realized that rolling upgrades often got blocked. The reason being peristent volume claims sometimes get stuck.

And this is just one of few problems.

Since we moved databases and stateful services outside Kubernetes, everything got faster and more reliable.

Can we get certified ECC RAM on anything at consumer prices yet?
Sure, we are in agreement then. It is a great thing as it will enable the blockchain to continue to scale for more users and more applications, and it is the opposite of the energy inefficiencies of the current PoW system.
I'm a huge fan of asdf and have been using for years together with direnv! It's great to see how much effort is put into it! I hope more people adopt it so that we don't have to `curl | sh`! One thing I have issues with asdf is security as are no checksums, so, you if I project get compromised you'll get compromised, too. This, of course, is in addition to the third-party asdf plugin getting itself compromised (which is the greater risk). Last, but not least - I wish asdf came with something like eget [0] incorporated so that it can install 99% of the plugins directly and safely! Last, but not least - 99% of the plugins have almost identical code and all that changes is the repo, so, this should be generalized. For example, many years ago I made just one codebase of all HashiCorp plugins [1] and it's been working great!

AFAIK, all this discussion is in the realms of hypothesis.

It is. It's just currently the best hypothesis, and it's refined to better match observation over time. For example, the impact with Theia was originally thought to be a glancing blow by a planet spinning similarly to earth, but more recent simulations indicate it was a head-on collision and that Theia had relatively little angular momentum. This hypothesis does make predictions about the moon's core that are falsifiable but it may be some time before we figure out a way to make the necessary measurements.
If you're following a vehicle so closely that prediction requires you to be able to see through that same vehicle's windows (as per the parent's complaint), then yes, you absolutely are tailgating.

Tornado Cash is not a money laundering operation. It is a privacy tool.
It’s weird the crypto people think this is a valid argument.

If someone did what tornando is doing with physical cash, they would also be committing money laundering.
> Financial privacy is definitely a right.

This is a baseless, so I think you're making a bad assumption. Finance is opaque at a low level because of arbitrage and physical trade, but it's the belief that the physical world dictates social rights (which are moral at the core, so let me know if you want to jump to morality?) is simply incorrect.

What's more, I think that the default position that finance should be private actively hurts society in innumerable ways. Unfortunately, without it, capitalism immediately breaks down into monopolies. So we live in the happy middle, as with many things, suffering the inevitable (corruption, blackmail, etc).
> the price is clearly still falling

I'm not sure what chart you are looking at but BTC has been rising since June. The drop in crypto assets this year is well correlated with other risk assets like Tech stocks. Everything sold off when the Fed started raising interest rates. Most analysts are expecting and Fed futures are pricing in a Fed pivot to cutting rates sometime next year.

> Anyone who wanted bitcoin would have bought by now. Just sellers remain.

Now this is just silly. The order book on Coinbase Pro (just one exchange) shows ~$40 million of buy orders at or above 20K, ~$40 million of sell orders at or below 28K, and the spread is typically $2 or less. The market looks balanced and efficient to me.
But is hard to audit. Web apps are committed in Git and have code reviews and client testing. If Excel made it possible to commit the formulas into Git, it would have taken over a million of accounting apps and SAP for 50 additional years.

But the lack of reliability of “a spreadsheet made by John in Accounting” sorely limits the success it can have.
I'd say that HLS finally starting to mostly work is the single biggest driver

I've tried it since it was Haskell IDE Engine and only recently does it seem to "just work" without edgecase bugs (Template Haskell) or configuration

It's hard to take a language seriously that doesn't have a good IDE story.

I wrote a massive rant to Tom Ellis about why I thought writing Haskell was a terrible user experience and most of my complaints have been resolved in the last year or so.
FYI, we were letting our goats and chickens roam at the same time, but hanging out with the goats and it was fine... until the goats figured out how to squeeze into the chicken run and gobble up the chicken feed.

Apparently they find it super tasty, but it's not vegetarian, so they shouldn't eat it. The chickens get into much less trouble and can roam mostly unsupervised; but we've got a lot of aerial preditors to watch out for.

This article appears to be talking about the attack on the science community from outsiders, both political and otherwise, with or without support of members of the community.
An article from 2020 [1] claims that they had "32,000 linux computers" in orbit. At that time they had 480 satellites in orbit, so ~66 "computers" per satellite. That would put us at about 180,000 computers today.

>You can’t put a price on upholding the law

So you'd be fine paying say 99% of your income to hire someone to follow you around and cite you for speeding or jaywalking or any other infraction you commit?

Obviously this is hyperbole, but every society places a price on upholding the law, and a hundred hearings over a quarter is a huge waste of that budget. The only benefit anyone gets is a small smug feeling that for once things went right.
A Git repo can still be a good audit log even if you use templates, especially if you're adding a step to transform files with each push.
