But to me, i feel like this is the biggest problem with sql. Yes every language is different, but having different mental models nonetheless causes friction, and leads to things like ORMs which are often even worse.

It seems like something that could attract funding from other possible victims.
I’ve been pro vaccine since forever but the idea that vaccines with decades of testing have the same risk profile as an experimental vaccine rushed through the labs to combat a deadly new disease is absurd.
They can't be cooked together right? Two pots, 2 stoves or double the time. Better switch between rice and lentils every other day or every day me think.but yea , why not mix them. Maybe because then, let's just mix something else with either rice or lentils. Not sure what blends well and complement them well.
A number of comments here are along the lines of "at least they're open about it!"

No.

The problem is that crunch culture selects for people in a position to put in that time. What of people with more complex home and personal lives (most people)? What about having a family? What if you're a carer? What if you have medical needs? What if your cultural or religious practices place limitations on when you can work?

You'll wind up with little diversity, which leads to terrible culture and poorly designed products.
counting grid? What even are these?
Not more pleasant --- to be honest, it's unsettling how little feedback there is from systems these days. Back then, it was natural to feel how the system was doing from the sounds of hard drives, the fans, etc., and malware trying to do something in the background would often result in a very noticeable change.
And my point is that for 99% of people even 1Gb is overkill, so I'm not seeing why they expect Joe Smith to suddenly start buying $500 routers.
No, it doesn't mean the vaccine is ineffectual. It means it loses potency after a while. The antibodies it helps generate don't last forever in the body. Also there are several variants of the virus around. The vaccine was most effective against the first version of the virus.
Can't you add a custom resolution of 60Hz? Monitor "overclocking" is a thing, that many support.
Google would get sued if they did that. Google are already sued a lot for their search ranking behavior, everything they do they have to be able to defend in court.
RISC is the secret sauce that allows M2 to decode four instructions per clock cycle, due to the constant instruction length, and that is what gives the M2 a speed advantage over CISC instruction sets. The snapdragon CPUs aren't trying to decode four instructions per clock cycle, so they aren't taking advantage of that feature of RISC instructions.
We're also one pot. Similar situation to the OP - I'm making what most would consider a very respectable income yet my wife still earns 2x my total comp (she didn't get the memo about the glass ceiling either). Although I've had previous windfalls that level the field a bit. Jealousy and territorial attitudes have never entered our minds. We're a team and support each other - my success is her success and vice-versa. We have the same financial priorities and similar spending habits - we live well within our means and consult each other on large purchases. There is no 'my money', there is only 'our money.'
Think of it as providing a discount for going v6 only. Every single provider is charging you to have a v4 address. They aren't charities. Some providers just let you opt out of paying for that.
You don't necessarily need roommates to solve loneliness

Maybe a dormitory arrangement would work better? One of my distant uncles live in a small apartment with private bedrooms/bathrooms and a small kitchen but it also has a large shared mess hall downstairs for everyone to eat.

Well if you have a 97%+ market share, I'd to say you're a defacto monopoly.

Strange thing though that the music industry managed to do fine without resorting to this. Dr Dre is not exclusive to Apple music.

So why does it have to be this way with video?
Yeah my city is old enough to have neighborhoods that developed pre-zoning and those that developed post-zoning.

The post-zoning ones have trash heaps in yards, cars everywhere. The pre-zoning ones are expensive and manicured and obviously places where people have pride of living, despite there being no HOA. In fact several things HOAs would not allow (statues of unusual taste) exist too that are different but still nice.
Yes. But if my choice involves pulling a trigger on a gun, then "My body, my choice" means little here should that bullet hit someone innocent.

What's more interesting is the efforts the conservatives in the US have done to deny people their rights in this regard. And I'm not even talking about abortion. Conservatives have worked extra hard to deny Americans their rights when it comes to vaccinations and their private lives.

It's a real shame.
Agreed wholeheartedly. I'd love to see email clients embrace markdown rendering (and sending) as an alternative to HTML. For stuff like links, headings, bulleted lists, tables, etc. in a single page, markdown is perfect. Emails rarely exceed the complication of a readme, and markdown works amazingly for those.

Even better: it remains totally readable in its raw unrendered form. So you're not really forcing anyone else to adopt your syntax, just... nudging.
I wonder when this sort of stuff slipped from "let's build our brand by supporting passionate enthusiasts and getting free multichannel exposure" to "revenue stream!"
> where AT&T decided to sell the lines to a bankrupt telco

Is that frontier? I'm pretty sure those lines were never at&t. A local phone company, then gte, then verizon, then frontier. IIRC.

Verizon is a descendent of babybells, but that doesn't make everything they touch at&t.
You realize businesses exist in CA right?
I understand your point, but it's not evidence for the opposing belief. And it cuts both ways, not just one way...people who think that it's a dark pattern but also don't care to engage.

Upvotes are a signal of support for an idea in the community. Whether strong or weak is debatable, but implying that they mean the opposite because of all the people who didn't care to vote is silly.
> People like that should have their driving license taken away

Cyclists shouldn't even be allowed on the road without a license. It's unbelievable the amount of crap I have to deal with on a daily basis because of people on bikes and motorcycles. Cyclists going the wrong way and against traffic, on the side walk, blowing past pedestrians at high speed even on pedestrian crossings, running red lights, failing to signal turns, travelling at obnoxiously slow speed, a whole group of them travelling side by side talking while blocking half a dozen vehicles behind them, travelling in between the traffic lanes, weaving through traffic, colliding and destroying car side mirrors even stationary parked cars, driving extremely aggressively in general, doing wheelies near me... It goes on and on, and any number of these behaviors can combine into something new. Every day cyclists invent new stupid shit for me to deal with. It takes serious effort not to accidentally kill someone on a bike.
Good idea. But the title of the article kind of implies the concept. Not exactly mixed, but a layer of lentils over a layer of rice, even say 80%20% would do too, the other commenter keeps simple, let's do both. Rice over lentils counts as valid presentation too I suppose.
You seem incredibly blind to your own privilege.

There is no one-size-fits-all, but most of the time I would be against SP because:

1) SPs usually mix persistence concerns with business logic. Making it harder to understand business intent. I find objects much more expressive than raw data. Sometimes you want to concentrate on the plain logic, without worrying about how something gets saved. Also you will not have to rewrite everything if you ever want to change how something is stored. Sometimes people switch from mysql to pg, or even doc or kv database. Keeping business logic separate enables this. And good ORM enables this separation.

2) Refactoring tooling and unit tests. SPs are lacking here significantly compared to general purpose languages.

3) Business logic outside of DB allows easier horizontal scaling.

Did you use the "Send Feedback" in the bottom left corner? I've heard (via a comment on HN) that they do read them. I also readily admit the bottom left corner is a suboptimal place to put a feedback link, but here we are
FYI that website is outdated and unmaintained. The person who worked on it left Mozilla AFAIK (would love to be proven wrong). See https://twitter.com/CubicleApril/status/1438940565916225545

The correct thing with Caddy is to _not configure anything at all_ for TLS. The defaults are the correct thing to use. If you override the defaults, then you're more at risk of bitrot due to not remembering to update your own config. Let Caddy (and the Go stdlib, really) choose what's secure.
People may not realize just how many barriers are put in the way of this kind of thing happening and at every level of government you have skilled and experienced actors trying to make sure it doesn't happen.

The obvious one is states pass laws to forbid municipal broadband. This should be illegal. I actually wonder if the Federal government could override this since this sort of thing usually falls within the purview of the FCC but I'm no lawyer. Comcat, AT&T and Verizon all lobby hard to make municipal broadband illegal, even when they won't connect homes they have a legal obligation to connect.

But imagine it is legal and you've started an ISP. Your problems have just begun.

How are you going to run cables (fiber or otherwise) to people's homes? Are you going to dig trenches? Well you need permits for that. You might dig up someone else's cables so existing providers get to delay that process.

Or are you going to string those cables up on poles? Well, who owns the poles? It might be an existing ISP. There might be laws that allows you to string cables on those poles. Maybe there isn't. Maybe you have to pay an exorbitant amount for the privilege. Maybe Comcast is the only one legally allowed to do cable work and they'll charge you a fortune for it and take forever (and probably screw it up).

Even if the utility poles are owned by the city or the county but that doesn't necessarily solve your problem either. You need permits to string up cables. You might have to file a permit application for each pole individually. Even when you get a permit, existing users may have to move their cables to make room. They may have 90 days to move it. If several need to move cables then may well take the maximum time in turn.

Either through trenches or poles you eventually have cables. Where do you run them to? As in, are you running short cables to substations and then trunk lines back to an exchange? Or are you running long cables back to an exchange directly? Each has its problems.

The long cables may make too thick bundles for poles or require more expensive trenching. The shorter cables may require a substation that the locals view as an eyesore. You'll need to acquire land for that and may face NIMBYist opposition.

What I learned through exposure to this was that building an ISP is hyperlocal and the incumbents are way better at it. For example, there may be a lot of limestone in the soil that may make trenching slow, difficult and expensive. You may want to use poles instead but that might not be an option so you're stuck with disposing of a lot of limestone.

The Stable Diffusion models are very small though. You can probably train one with relatively low investment, e.g. 4x3090 under $20k.

Good article.

Especially the DBAD comment.
Another advantage is with ranges: 0-based indexing and exclusive ranges work well. This is apparent with cursor position in text selection

Consider:

Characters h e l l o
Cursor index 0 1 2 3 4 5
Char index 0 1 2 3 4
Range [0,3) [0,1,2]
Range [2,5) [2,3,4]
Range [1,1) []

If we used 1-based indexing and exclusive ranges, it leads to ranges where the end index is greater than the string's length...

Characters h e l l o
Cursor index 0 1 2 3 4 5
Char index 1 2 3 4 5
Range [1,4) [1,2,3]
Range [3,6) (!) [3,4,5]
Range [2,2) []

but if we use inclusive ranges, it leads to ranges where the end index is less than the start index...

Characters h e l l o
Cursor index 0 1 2 3 4 5
Char index 1 2 3 4 5
Range [1,3] [1,2,3]
Range [3,5] [3,4,5]
Range [2,1) (!) []

Also:

Characters h e l l o
Cursor index 0 1 2 3 4 5
0-based range [0,3) [0,1,2]
1-based range [1,4) [1,2,3]

for the 0-based range [0, 3), the left array bracket is at cursor index 0, and the right bracket is at index 3. With 1-based indexing it doesn't work like that because the range is [1, 4)
> But you knew what I meant and are simply responding to the least charitable reading of my comment.

Um, no:

> You are not required or incentivized to buy anything.
I never paid that kind of money. At least in my circles nobody ever had extravagant cable packages. Just the basic and perhaps one special interest package like sports.
It's self evident to you that there's no effect on brain chemistry that accompanies the experience? A change that could have an impact on the condition?

You might be right, maybe you're even probably right, but it's not self evident to me.
>If states make a regulation that cannot be shown to be more effective because it's administered at the state level rather than the county or city or neighborhood level, it should be struck down.

This clarifies your objection to my "all" comment because it is the same type of thinking to which I was referring. You are stating that regulation is assumed to be bad until proven otherwise. Maybe I should have put an "unless proven otherwise" disclaimer after "all regulation is bad" in my original comment, I will grant you that. But I was simply giving you the benefit of the doubt that you wouldn't dispute something that was proven to be true. Until you have that proof, you are seemingly assuming all regulation is bad.
Google or not, I would be very worried about relying on any company too much. That dependency makes you vulnerable.

Stuff happens. Companies die, get purchased, change their focus, etc. all the time.
I find it really curious how people consider "async" as a "basic thing". Coming from C++, asynchronous runtimes were a thing companies and large open source projects were built around. It's not at all a basic thing.

I'd argue it's almost certainly something that should NOT be in the standard library. If anything, the feature was added to Rust too quickly and has way too many rough edges.

I'm old school. Employees have enough to deal with without the boss going all weepy on them when they are processing losing their job. It feels self-indulgent. I honestly don't care how bosses feel in these situations, especially since being the boss has a lot of other advantages. This is one time where leaders need to suck it up and try not to make it about themselves.

Disclaimer: I run a company.
They shouldn't have done that, though it was almost certainly an innocent mistake*. If I'd seen it, I would have edited it.

You can see the guidelines for YC startups posting job ads here: https://news.ycombinator.com/jobguide.html. As you can see there are 6 paragraphs dedicated to neutral titles.

* Founders don't post like that for nefarious reasons. It's just that many of them don't spend much time on HN and have no idea of the finicky conventions of this community.
> It's a bad study and I'd be willing to tell the researchers that to their face.

What are your standards for a good study, then? You understand that this basically makes anything I give you a non-starter as its validity is wholly based on your opinion of it, right?

> I said the "other stuff you wrote" was.

Fair, my mistake. But, to your point, it's not navel gazing it's objective reality (whether you like that reality or not is irrelevant). Empirically, the problems you encounter today are in far greater numbers than they were in the past and those problems all track with decisions made in government (either directly or indirectly).

Frankly, just based on your initial response to me, I don't think a conversation would be terribly productive for either of us.
SEO would still exist if Google was simple pagerank, and pagerank does not seem in any way user hostile.
Agreed, priority is to ensure there’s oxygen to the brain- but in the process of ascertaining if they’re indeed unconscious, don’t start by grabbing their shoulders and shaking them violently. Touching their hands and face as pointed out in a sibling comment is better, and after determining that they’re not breathing and have no pulse definitely proceed with vigorous CPR because potentially paralyzed is of course better than dead. Also, be aware of whether Good Samaritan laws protect you from liability before deciding to proceed.

Limits like 'no metal dumps within 1000 feet of residential areas' are fine. They're not zoning, as no pre-existing zone is set up. According to wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoning), zoning is when a city divides land up into zones and then dictates use. Limits like these are just externality captures. They're good and necessary for good urban life.

As an example, I was going to buy land in a rural town to develop into a nice little mini tiny home resort. It was going to be super cute. However, the zoning meant I couldn't do it. Not because there wasn't something just like it next door (like other resorts). No, just beacuse the letter next to the property in the registry wasn't the right one, and changing it would be a nightmare. Why? As long as I'm not dumping heavy metals onto neighbor's property, the water, or the air, why do these letters hold so much sway? Exactly why do we need 'recreational-only' property right next to an existing vacation business? It only serves to entrench existing competition, and make new ventures more difficult.

I feel the same. Java and C# have an equivalent called 'var'. Unless the scope is tiny, I always avoid it. Also, in Java when you create a lambda, it is possible to exclude the parameter types.

foo(x) -> get_something_complicated(bar(x))

You still have to get transceivers for both ends of each and every connection which drives up the cost per port pretty dramatically.

Edit:

Scantly driving up the cost per port.

Say what? You've just added $1,500 (28 ports * 2 per port * $27) to the cost of a 28 port switch… at the low end.

Now I've no experience with fiber, but anecdotally I've come across a few complaints that the Ubiquiti stuff is picky about the transceivers you use. So if you go with a single manufacturer, Ubiquiti wants about $900 for their 28 port switch, but SFP+ transceivers start at $38. Their direct attach cables are cheaper but a 5m cable will still run you about $40. Compare that to *BaseT where I can grab a 3m Cat6 cable for under $10.

For an ISP the cost difference probably matters much less as they will be making money off of each connection (and likely saving on cooling costs). For a home user (e.g. an EPB customer) that's still pricey. An ER-X w/ a single SFP port runs about $80, using that SFP port will cost you.
There are apparently a lot of licensing issues.
Most people reccomend going cold turkey from any kind of entertainment while working, and while that works for most people and a lot of hugh stress situations, it dosent click with me.

I break up periods of work by checking my phone,scrolling a forum, or working out/playing a game for bigger breaks. If I just sprint it out, i start to lose focus and get distracted far easier either way.

The real help for me is having a dedicated study space and if possible, set time frame outside your control. Im a college student so I frequently head to the library in long breaks between classes and that is my allocated study time/place. It gets you in the mindset and lets you get started on things right away.

Music is also big for me, but it hurts most people. Bossa nova always fits the mood though.
I might be a bit too hardcore for this product. I play FPS like Quake casually but somewhat competitively. Ever millisecond matters to me.

It's probably quite compelling for games where latency is not as important.
"I can pay $15 a month" is literally ignore the article we're commenting on. Can you pay $100 a month for TV? Because many households can't. Streaming briefly made it affordable for them, and then everyone went "actually, no, instead of paying service X, who pays us a license fee, you get to pay service X without our content, and then the same amount on top for our own service Y". Repeat some ten times, and we're right back to "guess I'll just pirate everything, because I can afford internet, but not internet plus another $100 for all the streaming services because the five shows I like are all on different platforms".
>> While GeForce Now supports a large number of my games on Steam, it doesn’t support them all. It gives me access to 88 out of my over 400 purchased games, with the emphasis being on more recent and/or more popular games.

This is going to be what ends up hamstringing the service in the long run. When GeForce Now first came out, you could play a much larger catalog of titles; publishers then caught wind of this and started pulling their games off of it, in case they wanted to launch their own streaming service in the future.

For this reason, I think Microsoft has the pole position with their XBox Cloud Gaming service. They have been running it as an extension of their Game Pass Ultimate service, and are rumored to allow you to play games you bought and own through the service sometime later this year. There's a future where a Microsoft game you own can be played on PC, XBox consoles, or streamed to an iPad or Chromebook, syncing progress between them.
I've been on the receiving end of one of these (for my own invention, no less), helped bust another. Much good luck to George Hotz on this one. I can't stand patent trolls and even as an atheist I secretly hope there is a hell so they will get what's coming to them.
