The last place I worked had an enormous Golang monorepo where every dependency was vendored. Literally everything. It was a very large collection of code.

Updating dependencies frequently touched a ton of files.

One approach to being unable to update pinned dependencies was to duplicate code, which created even more of it.

On the plus side, the tooling still seemed to handle the scale. Everything was there for you to look at.

I recommend to use VictoriaMetrics instead of using InfluxDB for many reasons. PostgreSQL is good SQL database for different purposes but as TSDB on a big installations it works not really well.

LEO is proven; there's a need, thus a market, and the science is sound. Mars, not so much. No need, just dreams for an irresponsible solution to Earth-bound problems that still will need solved.

The lack of air on Mars can be solved; we could terraform it, over a long time, create the air needed to support life. The lack of a planetary dynamo and magnetic shield from radiation probably can't be solved.

What is the difference between tin cans in LEO using centripetal force for artificial gravity and tin cans on Mars? One is a lot less expensive, and if something goes wrong, there is at the very least a possibility of escape or rescue. Mars is somewhat of a death trap.

So no doubt Musk cares about space stuff, which has been profitable for him. I'm just not sure he's really serious about Mars or if it is his version of a reality distortion field. It really looks like a monorail to me.

Some of the data confirming the hypothesis may be from looking at studded snow tires. They tear up a lot of crap in the air if you use them on roads that aren't covered in ice.
But hardware back then was simple and uniform per platform. I developed professionally for the SNES some 30 years ago. You could set up sample playback with a handful of instructions, sprites with another handful, etc.

It actually is comparable in my experience and opinion.

Setting up graphics modes on the SNES was much easier (hardware wise) than e.g. switching VGA (or even CGA) to graphics mode - one did have bios INT 10h to rely on for the PC, but “select and set up graphics mode, colors, etc” in practice was a comparable effort.

And many games implemented tiny virtual machines to simplify and compress code. As another example, ZX Spectrum basic rom (16k of z80 machine code and data) spent a few hundred bytes implementing a floating point stack VM interpreter that compressed relevant math code by approximately 1:5 compared to “native” calls.
Mechanical engineer here, this article could have more detail and I'd have read it. The translation from nuts and bolts and rods and links in the suspension to the intangible but apparently important (for selling cars) "feel" is fascinating. It's sometimes idiotic - "make an Audi Q7 feel like a Porsche" required a movable central connection in the rear suspension for some rear wheel steer (but just using the existing play/travel) as well as a hydraulic then (v2) electric doo dah to counteract the tilt and keep the boat of a car level through turns. There's no "point" to this - it just let's them sell a souped up big SUV at 911 prices and make money hand over fist.

I'm not even a car person but this article wasn't laboring the point.
I'd say today's Romanian for what the French have with Kevin is Mario. In our (Romania's) case is also the fact that this is a "racial" issue, on top of the classist one.

Before the whole GDPR thing came into effect and results became anonymised I was working on doing a "distribution" of kids' first names based on their "Evaluare Nationala" results, to see if there was any correlation between "good" schools and some first names and "bad" schools and some other first names.

Didn't know RHEV was being killed. It makes sense, the enterprise virtualisation market is shrinking by the day, but it's still a bummer there's less competition. Is oVirt being maintained?

> That's what solutions like Nutanix are for.

Nope. Nutanix is for when you want to replace your hardware and software, have specific workloads that fit a hyperconverged hardware deployment, want a good piece of software with a ton of extras that don't really work all that well, being bash and random FOSS smushed together with duct tape. Oh, and you have money to burn.

Lisp will always be relevant since it's based on math. For it to become irrelevant we need to discover or invent a completely new kind of math, and we simply haven't evolved to that point.
>Removing any other expense will be detrimental to the business, that is, make it work less well. Nothing will happen to the business if the owners don't get any dividends.

I'd say two things.

1. A listed business wouldn't exist in the first place (or in its present form) if owners hadn't been enticed to put up capital in the hope of getting dividends.

2. The purpose of a listed business is to pay the owners, not to produce goods or services - producing goods or services is just a means through which to pay the owners.
I'd wager that much of that is because people are susceptible to be lured by the idea of strength. If you identify severe problems with how the world is, even an oppressive government like what the bolsheviks created that claims to solve them might seem like a ray of hope, and you might be willing to look past a lot of horrid things / convince yourself that they're not real so long as you believe those fundamental problems with the organisation of labour and wealth are being solved. It is worth noting that this infatuation was by no means universal - Camus and Sartre famously had a split over Soviet gulags, and Orwell consistently criticised the Soviet Union's authoritarianism despite both being socialists. The fact that only centralised, authoritarian socialist governments managed to take power in the first half of the 20th century has probably done irreparable damage to the idea of communism. If more moderate, decentralised, or liberal (as opposed to authoritarian) governments had managed to take power (such as in Spain) people might not be as quick to dismiss the (in my opinion, very real) structural issues in capitalist systems, and we might live in a better world today because of it - or perhaps that is just my infatuation with the counterfactual!

Obviously a fortune 500 CEO does not know jack about IT. But someone has raised the alarm on the price hike and presented a few possible solutions, that have reached all the way to the board.

Given the high risk, tight schedule, and the amount of work something like this must be driven by the CEO (or at least directly sponsored by him) or it will not happen.

You can use smart search queries specially for the title/keywords/companies you are interested in.

A sample search will look like this:

(and in the search tools, limit the results to Past week, etc)

Obviously it can only track companies who use tools like lever, greenhouse, etc.

If the goal was to avoid war in Europe, then keeping a buffer of neutral countries between Russia and the EU/NATO would have been the logical course of action, when failing to integrate Russia in the European family.

It seems to me that the EU and US didn’t know when to stop and only looked at the potential economical and respectively geopolitical gains, while not giving enough weight to the risk of conflict when it was known what Russia’s red lines were.

This was a policy blunder. Looking at it from a moral or international law perspective is a dead end when the primary driver of the chain of events leading to today was geopolitics.

That's interesting! I'd love to know more about how your friend did it.

It's trivial to get perfect on-axis sound (ie, the tweeters are pointed at your ears) even with cheap speaker components if you add some active DSP to compensate for the speaker's imperfections.

In professional studio audio this is more or less the norm with monitors from Genelec, JBL, etc.

In nearfield use (ie, you're close enough to the speaker that the direct sound from the speaker dwarfs the sound reflected off of the walls of the room) this will sound eerily good, basically like putting on a pair of headphones.
> "But even desktop ARM Macs are seeing the same benefits from being able to ditch backwards compatibility."

Because who doesn't want better battery life for their desktop machine? Or quieter fans or more memory.

Desktops have plenty of RAM, enough to not worry about whatever insignificant benefits you're talking about that may arise from ditching backwards compatibility. Which by the way, has never been an undesirable feature. You're just trying to sell it as undesirable by claiming users are in great debt to those who decide to take away the option to run older software.

Apple has stated they will delete iOS apps from app store if they haven't been updated in awhile even if they technically still function. This will lead to a farcical situation of updates for the sake of updates, which is no doubt happening now anyway to get attention. "Remember me? I'm the app you haven't touched in a few months, here's an update!"

You're a subscription apologist and you dislike backwards compatibility. Your position is unconvincing in this discussion, but it sounds like you're happy! All the best.

I agree. But contextualising case sensitivity is sort of what VSCode is doing here. I'm running on a system where files are case-sensitive, yet it, because of Microsoft's preference for case-insensitivity, insists on sorting filenames without regard for case.
Same here. Was interested in the answer but I gave up before getting to a satisfactory conclusion. Way too little information density.

Static linking means no dependencies whatsoever, so it only needs a syscall interface in the kernel. If your binary requires libstdc++, it's not static, period.

Go creates static binaries. I was a bit bummed out to learn that Rust doesn't by default since it requires glibc (and copying a binary to an older distribution fails because glibc is too old).

I can only judge them based on CSS and PHP content because those are the things I can even properly compare. W3schools continue to be a very low quality resource, incomplete and incoherent on most aspects.

If they are(or were) connected to my laptop and phone and both devices are nearby, then they will default to my phone.

I don't see anything in the docs about cancelling a standard function. Maybe internally Go represents a function as some type of future but for all practical purposes, it looks to me like a function in Go is just as synchronous as as a function in say java.
I would say they haven't changed much over the years, but I always quite liked them for just getting answers to simple things fast.

MDN is of course fantastic, but generally requires more reading/scrolling and is therefore slower for simple things like what's the markup for a button or select drop down thing look like again.

As for the w3.css style sheet, it's quite good for sprucing up small internal web apps.
Ask HN: What is the best mailing list for AI/ML? For jobs/news/software
Of course it would. About 43000 people die in car accidents in the US every year. That is apparently considered acceptable in a population of 332 million people. If the population was one million people, what would most likely be considered horrendous.

I admit that my standards regarding death of critters are somewhat different than death of people, but the total population do matter there too. 6 million deers are shot in the US every year in a population of 25 million. People don't seem to be very upset about that, but rather concerned that the population still is rising. Many people are very upset that any rhinos at all are killed.

And as the example with deers show, you can cull some populations quite heavily without any apparent ill effects.

It's also the initial part to a bell curve.
My point is that code density is code density regardless of underlying CPU, programming language, and libraries - up to a constant (bounded above by size of an emulator and said libraries). That’s actually very rigorously defined for those who care - and has a lot of implication. The rabbit hole starts with “algorithmic complexity” also known as “Kolmogorov complexity”.

The constants matter. It may be harder to get an impressive dwitter style output from bare NES or C64, but there a 32, 64, 128 and 256 byte demo “micro scene” for c64 and DOS that pumps out very impressive stuff for the size - some that would even be impressive on dwitter.

Most NES code is tight (due to constraints). Most JS code is not (there are essentially no constraints) but that’s not inherent, as is shown with demos and proven by kolmogorov solomonoff and chaitin.

I tried to follow the advice. It's clearly someone who is working with computers and for a long time. The comments are touching various topics (from tech to society to random stuff) and it's likely that the person is behind a keyboard, not on a mobile phone: comments are rather long on average.

Ah, wandering shops.
Maybe 25 years ago I was walking the streets of Rome, as I had been doing for years on my days off. Maps were left behind years before - didn't need them. That day I was on the Tevere side of the Tiber (well, that would sound strange in Italian..), anyway, I suddenly came across a shop I had never seen before, or at least not noticed. In the window they displayed the most fantastic steam-punk coffee machine, with pipes going everywhere, but not that big either. I instantly wanted it. But it was a Sunday and the shop was closed so I decided to call it a day. It was just a short straight walk from the shop to a major intersection near the river, and then to a bridge and eventually to where I was going.

So I went back as soon as I could a few days later, walked to that intersection and up that road, about a hundred meters.. and the shop was not there. There was nothing on that corner. I thought I was losing my mind, or at least I had managed to mess up something.. after that I started out from every bridge on the Tiber, walked to the nearby major intersection, and up whatever street in the right direction. Nothing.

I continued my search for years after that whenever I came back to Rome, but I never found the shop. At that time I didn't really want to buy the coffee machine anymore, I just wanted to solve the mystery.

Obviously (if I think logically) there's a natural explanation, but it still comes back to me now and then, all these years later. Back when I read that Pratchett book in your link, which went into details about how a Wandering Shop behaves, I suffered major déjà vu!
I do not agree with most of the points made in this article. I didn't watch the entire testimony, but what I heard I found worrying.

For example, half the company had prod access to user accounts. And there was no way to find out who accessed what. This is not normal, it's a huge red flag.

The article claims that it should be perfectly expected that an executive should order someone to lie to the board about the risk the company is exposed to. Apparently this is Mudge's fault for not pushing back hard enough.

And then there's the rant against the "cyber security crusader", for whom nothing but perfect security is enough. Sounds like a perfectly annoying character, along with the architecture astronauts I guess. I've never met any of these stereotypes in the real world, although people do disagree on what is enough.

So it's either trolling us, or just not very good. Or both.
How I got into Y Combinator - Garry Tan
I don't think it's kind to maintainers. IMHO vendoring all the things works for very small (personal) projects or for very large projects (you are google), but not for most of the stuff in between.

It's great to be the sort of developer who reads all their dependencies, what's not nice is forcing maintainers to do that too after you have left - we usually want to expend the minimum effort necessary to keep your application vulnerability-free and still-deployable and do not appreciate "artisanal" takes.

I want to see locked dependency versions and use of company artefact repositories to avoid unexpected changes and avoid availability concerns (e.g. it gets yanked off npm or github etc).

I am not pleased to find vendoring, as I now have to work out what (if any) code has been changed, what version of the upstream it corresponds to, and I now have to potentially merge third party code to do otherwise simple updates. How bad this all is depends on the language and style of vendoring.

The absolute worst case is when someone like the author has vendored everything, deleted half of it, pointlessly eslinted it(!) made a few cosmetic changes here and there, ... "haha good luck merging from upstream now" - it adds no business value but increases maintenance costs.

Depending on tooling, I may now also have to commit to periodic manual review for dep based CVEs instead of just letting the company dep scanner sort those out.

I have no problems with vendoring "for the right reasons" e.g. if you actually needed to change the code to fix a bug or make a change that's fairly specific to your application.
