I can't comment on all the marketing aspects, but the idea of creating products to handle all of the concerns of application development and deployment seems like a really good one: everything from provisioning infrastructure with Terraform, to running containers with a combination of Nomad and possibly Consul. In my eyes, that's enough to validate HCL as a viable language, versus it just being a weird DSL for a single product instead.

Also, the other day someone suggested that Nomad doesn't have a future when compared to Kubernetes, though it would seem that there are plenty of orgs also investing in HashiCorp's offering and quite possibly benefiting from the somewhat simpler architecture.

That said, I can't help but to wonder why the cloud vendors don't embrace Nomad as well - after all, if many of them can offer managed Kubernetes, then surely managed Nomad would be both cheaper and easier to implement. Most of those platforms already offer a variety of databases (e.g. MySQL/MariaDB and PostgreSQL), so it's not like the idea could be dismissed on the grounds of duplicated effort alone.
That reminds me of Polish Social Insurance Institution (Zakład Ubezpieczeń Społecznych) which in 2008 announced a tender for the supply of 130k standard 3.5-inch floppies for about 120k PLN (back then) [1]

"But I actually think, 10 years from now, everyone in the world is going to be trying to figure out how [best] to use Fuchsia.

What will happen is AI will be fed IP legal corpus as part of training. It will only show images that can't be linked (in a justice setting) to any particular work. Which will be interesting because it will produce media culturally alien but still appealing and probably addictive. It will literally be the engine of advancement of human culture. I'm not the conservative type, but I'm still slightly concerned as much as fascinated.

Not sure the question needs a definitive answer, but anything that helps to preserve these pubs as pubs is a-ok with me. I recall heavy sessions in The Red Lion down in Southampton because we were acquainted with the owners some time back, so we would just be locked in, party all night, pass out in the rooms upstairs and then carry on the next day. The pub might have been from the 12th Century, or the 15th, but either way, our flagrant abuse of its premises and hospitality seems entirely in keeping with its history.
The people who "won" the cold war are those Eastern countries that had been occupied by Russia for 45 years and fought for their freedom in Prague, Budapest and especially in Gdańsk.

I find that HCL (Terraform's declarative resource specification format) is an excellent target for a compiler for a DRY description of my resources. :-D
I thought it was Reagan who forced Gorbachev and the Soviet Union into this position by arms racing them to death. I bet you Gorbachev would try to keep the empire if it wasn't for the economical collapse. He sent tanks to the Baltics. He cheered for the annexation of Crimea. His empire might've been more democratic than the USSR used to be, but still an empire. Also, he was a communist and tried to keep it, but the people were full of communism.
> Tesla launched a car into space.

It was a dummy payload. Sure the car was more expensive than a block of concrete, but not by much.

Elon claims SpaceX was started because he couldn't inspire people with a martian greenhouse photo. So it is "in character" for him to do inspiring things if possible along the way.
The phrase "because he feels it's counter-productive to achieving the goal of a more inclusive society", holds "and he wants a more inclusive society" implicitly. He even says that _explicitly_.

Or are you suggesting his motivations are something else? More to the point, who cares for the sake of the argument? Are you trolling?

IIRC adding ships and planes to the mix likely won’t make a big difference to the home/land user as they are geographically far apart.

The bottleneck is the bandwidth/users a single satellite can serve at any given time, as a single satellite serves users below where it is at that point in the sky. So when satellites start orbiting over the ocean or remote/uninhabited locations, they are sitting idle.
Do you think the police are gonna roll up at the top of Everest, see someone flying a drone, and confiscate it?

The worst I could possibly imagine happening is that later when the footage is released the authorities demand payment of a fine. And even if you were forced to or decided to pay the fine, that seems like it would be insignificant in light of climbing the worlds tallest mountain.

In other words, who cares?
It went from 69 years to 65 in 2005 when it started rising again. However life expectancy in the USSR seems to have been mostly stagnant since the 1960's, so I'm not sure the situation was that great in 1990.
> I can't think of very many, if any, examples in computing history where a project, open source or not, followed the path of "dominating a domain" -> "sponsor does something crappy" -> "the community rallies around a fork" -> "the fork becomes a dominating force in its domain".

In addition to LibreOffice which you mention, once upon a time the classic example was GCC vs EGCS; the fork was so successful that it became the original thing. It might be harder to consider Firefox an example, since Chrome has taken over, but it was also a fork of Mozilla because Mozilla was too heavy under the weight of Netscape-mandated legacy features. The X.org fork of XFree86 took over because the project behind XFree86 brought in a licence that was not GPL compatible.

In only one of these cases was the sponsor a for-profit company - and it was basically dead - but I think that's because it's a fundamentally recent phenomenon that for-profit companies feel free to release their source code under a free licence. There just hasn't been the time. It takes time to develop a good project, attract a generation of users who take it as the norm, betray trust and motivated people to fork. If the time wasn't there, then they might just pick up what they'd used before or develop something genuinely new.

As a father of two, I would like to add that even with kids, your 30s can be a golden-age. They were for me at least.

The stress and FOMO of my twenties was gone. A certain Danny Glover quote regularly comes to mind.

Things and thoughts in my head are for the most part sorted out and now it’s time to play.

Sure, it’s different with certain responsibilities, but in the end you are yourself either way. The main point of your post, as I understood and agree with is true with it without kids. Because, as you said, success is measured in effort, not in lines of code or numbers on your watch.

We should be competing WITH each other, not AGAINST.

Now, I’m done with my thirties and the platinum age of my forties is dawning. Can’t wait.

I don't think it's very controversial to point out that kind of shock story-telling was less taboo 12 years ago.

I think this comments section demonstrates it. TFA is a pretty uninteresting retelling of their experience in Rogan's studio. Yet the top HN comment is pearl clutching over that 12-year-old Diaz clip that has nothing to do with TFA and all of HN is going on record to be tough like Scruff McGruff on raunchy stories.

And did you guys, like, see what Joe did? He laughed at it. Like a hyena.

OK, but IMHO that makes the situation worse, not better

It’s called the political horseshoe - but it’s exceedingly overweighted on the right wing in the USA.

Being external the USA helps provide a reference point that people inside the USA often lack.

However the key difference in my point is that people shouldn't be made to feel as if they are victims to things that don't actually matter - it's verging on propaganda.
This year was mild and we were seeing sustained winds of around 100mph. Most years it's closer to 120, with gusts considerably north of 140mph.

Your "sustained 160mph" is "sustained for a minute" in a category of storm that happens every few years.

Well, that's why disbanding NATO and giving military control of Europe to a German-centric organization was viewed with, well, uncertainty about what they might get up to. Given the persistence of the Nazi mentality in that region, one might also point out. It's not like the Japanese were the only ones with their holy shrines in the mountains to fallen heroes, was it?

Commenting on HN is necessary for survival?
I would offer the view, that for teams flush with money, everything you said is great. But if you're a solo dev or in a small team, deployments and finding the correct balance is actually tricky to manage. Developers created a solution to the old deployment problem by abandoning it and doing something else. That problem exists and you'd think it'd just be solved now so rolling out a desktop app wasn't such a crazy pain.

I worry that software engineering is building a lot of tech stacks that need active maintenance and can't really go into a classical long term support style use.

This is almost useless for dynamic runtimes, as they need to inline their own calls in their own calling convention, not calls in the C calling convention in llvm bitcode format.

For the C calling convention -O3 is good enough. With this you need to explicitly mark them, similar to [[always_inline]], just in a separate text file. This hardcodes r14, so it would be only useful for x86_64.

Also inlining just enables further optimizations, previously missed. something like qbe is much more interesting.
We built this for a solar renewable energy trader. It works fine.
Automation is software. People get paid to work on it. Even 50 lines programs can have bugs.

I prefer to minimize the work in the first place. I look for existing tools that already have the automation I need. I look for alternative solutions if a process is going to have 50 steps.

I use GUI programs like converseen for one off bulk conversion tasks.

I make programs display the output people need right in the UI, rather than parsing the output with another automation.

I use sqlite if I can, rather than automate the setup of postgresql or something. I'll avoid modules with some compile step outside the package manager when I can.

I don't have backup scripts, I have back in time.

I rarely use build scripts, I use IDEs. And I prefer languages that don't make building into a nightmare. Android Studio has "automation" built in.

And when something does need automating, I have Ansible.

Automation is custom software. I don't start new software projects without looking for alternatives.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Old_Red_Lion,_Islington

The reason it doesn’t look as old as they say is because it was rebuilt.
Sometimes the automation turns out so complicated that the work you put into the automation would be sufficient to do the task manually for many years.
It was also the start of the rush to full neo feudalism. Many conflate capitalism (oppossed) with what we had after the USSR got weak capitalism(unopossed). Turns out the remarkable archievments happen with systemic competition.
Some questions:

1. Was this sponsored by DJI, which they could potentially use for any of their promotional / advertising efforts?

2. Is there a raw version? I would think that there should be more shakiness or variability in the captured footage, given the high altitude and assumption that the air flow would easily disrupt the flight of the drone.

3. What period of the year was this taken? Usually you'd hear that Mt. Everest is always packed with mountaineers, and being able to get a shot with very few people on the mountain slopes is quite uncommon.

Side note: This is a spectacular feat - man and machine.
Gorby came to DC for a summit with Reagan in December 1987. When his motorcade stopped to meet folks on the street, he was absolutely mobbed.

I remember the news coverage (WashPost et al.) expressing surprise and bafflement. I think the power structure in the US did not expect such an outpouring of obvious hunger from the man on the street for an end to all the Cold War madness. "More popular than Reagan ?!"

If it sufficiently different from the original. So no one would confuse your new idea with the old. That’s how I was taught anyway.

But an automation is the best documentation of a process. In contrast to written documentation it is never outdated.
Just ignore them. On social media, ignoring a stranger is not rude. It's the default. And a perfectly valid strategy for dealing with the volume of people asking for your valuable time.

Obviously, when it's someone you know or important to you, give them the courtesy of a polite decline or say you're very busy and will let them know if anything changes in the future.
But for strangers: ignore if you don't want to interact.

If I remember correctly (and please correct me if I’m wrong) his ascent was influenced by his predecessor Andropov, which was one of the original revolutionaries but like Gorby he had a more liberal approach. Andropov’s health was really bad and Gorby being his right arm ended up as chairman of the union.

That linguistics and language evolution is really interesting.

Be aware of the energy you are wasting, a modern AI uses much less power than a human.
IMHO (only), React is a bit too flexible/modular/unopinionated and asks you to reinvent a lot of wheels... everything from basic page routing to syncing ajax calls to loaders and states, etc. More opinionated or bolts-included frameworks have defined conventions that you're strongly encouraged to adhere to, and they work great for most use cases. And when you see that pattern again, you know what the intent is.

But with React, every dev ends up doing the same thing their own way, with subtle differences and subtle bugs, and then as turnover happens and frameworks become less fashionable, codebases get polluted by a mix of different dev and tool generations and it gets even harder to ensure correctness.

Using a more opinionated framework built on top of React, like Next.js, can solve a lot of those issues... until Next itself becomes unfashionable and the cycle starts again :(
Morphing is different to interpolation and has been available on consumer computers since the 1990s (I remember making gifs in 1996 with it).

In morphing you end up with a blury mess for the between frames. This technique tracks individual features (eg eyes) and keeps them coherent.

Although it's likely that the images that appear online will be peoples' favourites of many candidates, also likely developed through many steps of AI tweaking. So that's still a useful signal for another AI to consume.
This all makes it somewhat of a joke when people writing articles online and speaking about computers refer to a "supercomputer" in everyone's pocket. The "supercomputer owner" has minimal control over how that power is applied. The kiosks serve their vendors and the vendors' data collection and surveillance systems more than they serve their users. Operating systems that stay tethered to commercial entities through telemetry, "services" and remote administration ("updates").

What other FE Framework does a better job at scaling up in your opinion?

I work as a freelance FE dev for 8 years and been doing webdev since the late 90s. I must say that for SPAs, React (with hooks) does the best job at scaling up (if you pay attention to your architecture) and I have seen and used frameworks/libs come-and-go such as knockoutJS, jquery, angular1, angular2+, (p)react etc.

I was pissed when the DNC conspired against Sanders. I also think that her politics were of "hold finger in the air to see which way the wind blows" (the antithesis of Sanders).

She's also a hawk and too chummy with our corporate overlords.

But in the general election not voting for the lesser candidate is effectively voting for the worse candidate (unless done after one's state has been decided).
