Thanks for sharing this! I have a hobby project that has hit the paid tier of my tileserver (thunderforest, and they're great) and I'm trying to figure out if I should be figuring out a business model or DIY'ing my tiles. Tileservers see to be expensive in general.
Not all outside energy has the same dependence on a single source.
Yes? If you have lots of bitfields and the convenience / readability is worth it, why wouldn’t you?
There's nothing wrong with asking for advice.

Yeah, it really is sad to see people so eager to embrace authoritarian sensibilities like this. The paradox of tolerence has seemingly become a buzzword without meaning, perverted beyond its original intent; a simple facade that enables people to feel self-justified about their own intolerance while still allowing them to claim progressive ideals.

The title is problematic, because the thesis of the article is not that issue trackers are harmful, but that using them for a product development workflow is problematic.

I’m going to call them bug trackers from here on, because I don’t like the name “issue”, which I find an insipid term that’s kinda part of the problem.

Generalising and simplifying (to the point of at least mild inaccuracy), bug trackers are excellent in open source work, but work trackers and planners are more useful in business.

Also a remark of my own: bug and work trackers both have a painful tendency to slowly increase in scope and try to cover each other’s purposes, but poorly. They’re similar, and there’s definitely some overlap, but they’re quite different in how you treat them, most of all in how you maintain them. An automatic stale bot may be reasonable in a work tracker (though it’s not ideal), but has absolutely no place in a bug tracker. (I have various comments on HN up to +76, and one outlier at +283, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27274146, showing that lots of people agree with me in hating stale bots on bug trackers.)

Actually, what am I saying? Not just such trackers, not even just software, but human endeavour in general tends to scope creep and the problems that arise from it.

Doesn't matter for a big chunk of society here. They only see that it came with costs and keep forgetting that all the dirty car travel received a ton of money and attention while public transport was kept behind dirty socks in the basement.

Seems unlikely that we'll follow that path in the near future. I mean it is something society would benefit from...

Faith is commitment to truth in Christianity and science has a lot to do with believing. People choose which of their hunches and theories at the edge of their individual knowledge with a leap of faith.

I said the Scientist operates on a minor variation on old ideas, not all of science. Quite frequently even the top echelon scientists are pushing science forwards based on ideas that started well before them.

These conversations aren't really possible anymore, people aren't interested in the meaning of words or meaning at all. They just want to relate to whatever goofball idea their tribe agrees with.

>I'm curious to know what millenia-dead philosophers managed to launch a JWST equivalent.

Oh so you want me to summarize the history of ideas after all -.-
I meant as opposed to having it built in.
Sorry for the lack of clarity, by "exposing the binary over the internet" I certainly wasn't implying re-implementing a HTTP server, HTTPS and certificate handling etc. You would of course have an nginx frontend that would cache the request and subtleties; the Rust FastCGI would see a well formed request, and rush to execute it just like any other dynamic language, PHP, Python.

You can of course still do stupid things inside the rust application that explode your number of concurrent requests, like waiting for slow external resources, databases etc. For a simple static formatter, it should not be the case, it would just repeatedly hit the disk cache and some minimal CPU.
I was feeling dense because I couldn't figure out what was so different. Some short, concrete examples would go a long way I think.
None of this is legal advice (IANAL).

If you live in a country where there are whistleblower protections you should talk with an attorney and see if you can report this to the relevant investigative authority under protection of that statute.
They are both right. From their personal points of view.

Some people do X best, others do Y.

The difference between propositional and syllogistic logic is important to keep in mind when making broad arguments like that about 'how stuff works'. Especially when 'stuff' refers to brains of people with individual differences.
It is not possible to specify bitfields in a way that makes sense, is consistent with a bytewise view of memory, and is portable between big endian and little endian processors.

Say you have, for instance (using C notation)

struct {
unsigned one : 8;
unsigned two : 8;
};

The fields are supposed to be represented in memory in the same order they are declared, so one is the first byte and two is the second byte. This should have the same representation as if I declared it as two uint8_t fields. If I type pun it and load it into a register as a uint16_t then it depends on the hardware whether the low and high bytes are one and two or two and one.

It gets more tricky when you consider arbitrary bit widths.

struct {
unsigned u4 : 4;
unsigned uC : 12;
};

If the fields are allocated in order, is u4 the low bits of the first byte or the high bits? If you require it to be the low bits, then it works ok on a little endian machine, but on a big endian machine the uC field ends up split, so the 16 bit view looks like:

Such unequal treatment is bizarre

I may lack huge parts of these contexts or misinterpret them, but there is something obvious in the pictures alone.

Kissing in a drama may have a very different connotation than in a sitcom, or may simply be one of the central scenes. The difference in the back exposing scenes is not in the back itself, but in the man in the background looking to the forward part of this back. I’m not pro censorship and mostly not pro conservatism, but this complete blindness to the difference in context and inability to hypothesize it feels, well, bizarre itself.
No, it's not, and no they're not. Bits and bytes cost money to produce.

The in-memory representation of bit fields is implementation-defined. Therefore, if you're calling into an external API that takes a uint32_t like in the example without an explicit remapping, you may or may not like the results.

In practice, everything you're likely to come across will be little endian nowadays, and the ABI you're using will most likely order your struct from top to bottom in memory, so they will look the same most of the time. However, it's still technically not portable.
Uh, that's standard C89. You know, the bit fields? Except for the "false" keyword, that's from stdbool.h and you need C99 for that to reliably exist.
As a compiler guy, I'd appreciate some look at the layers of abstraction in-between (so, ASM).
Microbenchmarks are famously jittery on modern CPUs due to cache effects, branch prediction, process eviction, data dependencies, pipeline stalls, OoO execution, instruction level parallelism, etc.

You have to be really careful to ensure the numbers you're getting are really coming from the thing you're trying to benchmark, and aren't corrupted beyond recognition by your benchmarking harness.

Some of these questions would surely be trivial if I actually knew any Go, but I'm left wondering:

* What does the machine code / assembly look like for this? What does the cast compile down to?

* What's `int` an alias for? I assume 64-bit-signed-integer?

* Are integer casts checked in go? Would an overflowing cast fault?
As far as censoring is concerning, can I just diverge to how crazy cool is the page - I mean the UX, the thoroughness of the subject and execution of it. I'm in awe.

Red is the least significant bit, because offsets start at bit #0. Endianness is not a concern because you have to specify the underlying integer type, and bit endianness is not a thing, so it's just the native endianness (if you, e.g., need a network format with specific endianness and a 32-bit bitfield, you can instead use 4 consecutive 8-bit bitfields laid out in a consistent way). Unspecified bits are ignored; they'll be zero if the bitfield is initialized through conventional means but if they can be accessed directly through the raw value (or e.g. through memcpy, pointer casting, and any other direct memory access means), but when reading a field only its specified bits are read so unspecified bits doesn't change that result. When writing to a field, the source value is truncated to the field size, so you never end up writing to other bits.
Co-founder at Kitemaker here. You're exactly right. However, when people start micro-splitting deliverables down into tasks, those metrics and outcomes tend to get lost in the shuffle.

The way we're structuring things in Kitemaker (large, collaboratively edited work items) is an attempt to prevent that. But of course it's not the only way to achieve it.

Awesome if you can make it work in your current tool of choice! As the article mentions, another way teams have solved this is by augmenting their issue tracker with a document-based tool like Notion or even Google docs and motivating their team to stay on top of those outcomes.
I think this is a re-work of "Chinas Totalitarian Bet". So there is a theory that the reason Middle East armies are basically expensive and crap is that the elites of the Saudis and Kuwaitis and Iraqis have loads of money but are despots and won't trust anyone but the most loyal / ethnically familial close with real power. So the tank battalions are lead not by talented colonels but by a cousin of the royal family. Spend six million training a nobody from nowhere Tom Cruise to be a fighter pilot? Make all the princes pilots. Let a sergeant train with a Anti Tank weapon. No way. They might aim at the cousin in his tank.

This is the opposite of the (more) meritocratic USA. Decision making is pushed downwards and the coherent mission is aligning all.

It is worth noting that a lot of ISIS / al-quida success is attributed to having to let go of this attitude - their central driving mission meant everyone was loyal, this decision making and training could be pushed right down into cells. Anyway I am not an expert here.

The point being that Totalitarian regiemes have a hard time making militaries that are flexible and responsive. And that rolls over to factories and civil servants etc.

Now the guardian writer Jon (?) and up with Chinas Totalitarian Bet - china knows this but thinks software and the surveillance state changes the game enough that either no-one can get out of line enough before their digital footprint catches them (again see al-qeueda) or that they can just give direct orders to be followed like Amazon warehouse packers and that will allow such flexibility and change.

So yeah mass education was about teaching the masses to think. And the people in say Victorian Britain who said this will end their way of life were actually right - fortunately for us.

The question now is can software replace our thinking? Can we all just do as we are told ? Will a society of drones be worth living in or even be productive enough to survive? And will the opposite, a more democratic more meritocratic and more fair and generous society be more productive innovative and worthwhile. I say Yes to the last and no to all others.
You probably haven't heard about The Streisand Effect because They want to keep it quiet.
I thought you were not able to initialize bitfield members like that in struct. Am I misremembering, was that something else or is it compiler/c++ release dependent?

Its a money laundering machine.. the oligarch invest dirty money into it, they buy equipment from other oligarch conglomerate companies, washing the money in the process.

Just build your dream project there, and then take it with you. Its basically a mafiosi incubator and the software is decoration and they do not recognize the value of it missing or ever having existed. Could be other things to. Empty houses in the middle of L.A or NY. Large Resource storages or car traders, dealing in circles.

Just make sure, there is no paper trail showing that you knew.

For people like me, who read a lot of books, Audible was and is absolutely wonderful.

Audiobooks used to cost like $30-$40 each, at least. With Audible, I pay a monthly fee and get access to books at $10 each. They also routinely have deals selling books for $10, or 2-for-1 deals, etc. The difference in price is huge and a no-brainer if you read a lot of books.

Note: I actually do the year-subscription plan, in which you get 24 credits for the cheapest price, to spend during that year. Buying extra credits will give them to you at that low price as well.
Ssssh! You're not allowed to talk about that... :-D

I have an M1 Max with 64 GiB. Fast as fuck. Sometimes run trade sims on it rather than on our job cluster.

Also have a personal M1 Air 8 GiB. Quite nice. Though it does have an issue where it suddenly slows down. Restarting brings it back. I don't like having to do that but it's the fastest smoothest thing I've used in ages otherwise.
I don't really like Macs that much, so you can take what I say with that grain of salt if you already have a preference.

Everything is noticeably laggier. I'm not sure about the actual performance of long running computations, in any case there isn't enough of a performance difference there for me to casually notice. However, the whole OS UI just locks (you get the spinning pinwheel) multiple times per hour, and in many different programs. My wife likes to tease me that it is just be the corporate lock down software. Anyways, it is frequent enough to really be a, "Oh, here we go again," experience.

Development experience. Mostly fine, I'm an IntelliJ user, and some unknown plugins cause lockup so we all just disable everything we aren't actively using. Docker compatibility seems unaffected. I guess this is because it was always a vm layer? We are no longer able to use some specific VM software but that didn't affect me in particular.

We got the 32GB models. I have no complaints, this is what I run on my personal computer; mostly, just to have breathing room. For react native 16GB might be enough, I haven't done any react native so cannot say for sure; large scale java workloads are memory hogs. It is nice to have that breathing room though.

The system is quieter, but I found the previous macs to be anomalously noisy (compared with my fan cooled personal computer) for comparable (CPU) work loads. Now I would say it is back to that level of quiet. People say the battery runs longer but I am not the sort of developer that spends a lot of time in meeting rooms with my PC.

So, if you want a laptop, seems passable but I don't find it all that impressive myself. My personal preferences would lead me elsewhere (I have a cheap laptop for mobile activity and an extremely powerful desktop).

I was thinking this was going to be about the transition from "using issue trackers to track what we're working on" into "we only work on tracked issues" mindset.

Another stereotype that exists is that all balkans are raging racists and will start war with anyone close by because they deem them subhuman. This is just a stereotype, so "so what?" right? And when you are waving off "laughing at stupid bosnians" as "so what?" this doesn't contradict that stereotype but rather reinforces it. So do you think it's fair that I assume you are indeed racist and treat you as such? You won't get angry or upset?
On larger vehicles like ships, you have exactly that "legacy siloing" of responsibilities. You don't need the person responsible for navigation and steering run down into the engine room or to the rudder to check whether everything works as expected there.
Thanks for your comment! Don't disagree, but issue trackers are mainly designed to make you track (individual) tasks. If you make your issue represent outcomes, we have found that teams often feel like they are trying to force a square peg into a round hole. Your mileage might vary, though :)

The fact that they chose to recreate Qinni's artstyle, who passed away just a couple of years ago and had a notable online following that still remembers her, makes me slightly uncomfortable; feels too soon for me, I guess.

Also, if models start to accept prompts like "in the style of Qinni", surely we're back to the copyright debate. They get away because everyone's art is mixed into a single model, but once distilling someone's artstyle is a feature…

It’s possible for gov to be bad at one thing - regulating bad actors in a system that both encourages monopoly, and allows the regulated corps to influence the regulators - and yet be good at another fairly different thing. In this case providing a service to a large number of people at a low per-person cost - see the post office or water + sewer as positive examples.

State-run isn’t synonymous with “badly run”, except it is when the state is actively trying to sabotage it so they can privatize it to enrich their pals. I don’t know that was the case in alberta, but it wouldn’t exactly shock me if it was… certainly that is the case with the post office in the states in the past 30 years, icbc under the bc liberals, and plenty of other examples
