I'm curious, Democrats like Kamala Harris, Chuck Schumer, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Maxine Waters have incited people to go harass others, break the law, and commit violence, and their followers have followed through multiple times. Do you support each of them being ordered by a court to pay the conservatives they harassed nearly a billion dollars, or is it only justified if it's someone you disagree with politically?

Software is a layer cake and in my opinion from 20 years software development experience I firmly believe that the top 1-2 layers of your business application should not rely on some framework if you want to create a great product, stand out amongst competitors and have a technological advantage in terms of innovation and maintenance. Whatever happens at the top 1-2 layers is what your business cares about the most and what defines your business and you want to have 100% control to fine tune it. I've worked in many companies and on many projects and this made a difference every time.

So would the ideal solution be if ScyllaDB had a github action to run benchmarks against PR's?

Not sure how decent a benchmark would be without running up servers in the cloud. So I guess provisioning infra would be a requirement?

So perhaps this could be run manually. But certainly possible

- Pulumi up infra
- Run benchmarks
- Collect results
- Attach to PR.
But you pulled those number out of thin air. The fact of the matter is that if I pick one research paper at random out of all the papers written by men and I pick another research paper at random out of all the papers written by women the former will be of higher average quality.
Work with WSL in JetBrains Fleet
WSL is a compatibility layer that you can use to develop Linux applications under Windows. JetBrains Fleet provides WSL integration out of the box.

=========

Sibmitter's personal opinion: VSCode demonstrated great features and integration, how WSL can be helpful for local development, rised the bar. Seeing other products adopting WSL is good news for the end users like myself, both in choice and competition.

"Spring Boot" has inherited some of the good ideas from Dropwizard.
I don't see how your examples stand in the way of innovation. Both seatbelts and the type c requirement are written as minimum requirements, not as "no more no less". Extensions and improvements are allowed or even common, as long as they preserve the base functionality.

A car needs a seatbelt that passes whatever certification is required by law, but there's nothing stopping you from making it better. There are 5 point harnesses out there which are street legal, but the only people buying them are car modders who want to use their racing car on the street and managed to get the rest of the car approved already. Mainstream manufacturers have also experimented with fancier seat belts, but there was no market demand for them.

Type C is similar - the new law requires a device to have a type C port that supports at least all the basic functions. If a manufacturer wants to include their own improvements, they can either use the Type C port like everyone has been doing for years (Warp/Dash charge, QuickCharge, analog audio, thunderbolt 4...) and/or add a second connector. The only one who hasn't been taking this approach was Apple and they haven't done anything innovative with Lightning since it was introduced.
thanks for this jared
As has been pointed out leases are a thing and work just fine, but many of the objectives you're after could better be achieved through a land value tax. Most of the value of a piece of land is usually derived from it's location relative to other facilities and infrastructure that were not created by the land owner, so it seems reasonable to return a share of that 'excess' value to the public purse.

I've been to Santa Pod in the UK a few times and the Top Fuel cars are in a league of their own, you really do know when they are running. Others have mentioned about the noise which is something very hard to describe in words.

You can walk around the pits and watch the crews doing a partial strip down of the engine for each run, although it's fundamentally basic V8 pushrod technology, it's far more than that.

There is a video [1] with a few slow motion clips of the preparation and running of a Top Fuel car. One poster mentioned a cameraman who stood between two cars, you can clearly see why that wasn't a good idea!!

Looking at how the tyres deform, not just at launch 2:00 but also at 2:50 it looks like they are a real limitation in acceleration. To help them off the line the launch area is really sticky, shoes melt into the 'tarmac'.

The 0-60 time, as with many really fast cars, doesn't tell the whole story of using their 10,000BHP to get to about 330MPH in about 4.5 seconds.

It's something I think you really need to go and see.

"Are you saying the church actually knew Galileo was right, and did this anyway? "

Not OP, but from what I know about the whole topic:

Not the church in its whole, but very likely the persons involved with the case and likely the pope knew.

In the way of, "technically he might be right, but those technical details are attacking the philosophy and very foundations of our church, which already is under heavy attack from all sides"

So you likeley have pure power motivation, but for "true believers" it was more, basically attacking the foundations of the one and only true church (this is what "catholic" actually means). So even if what Galilei said sounds true and logical, it cannot be true as it would question the truth of the believe, which is not to be questioned. Therefore the logic must be wrong.
Some people are capable of disagreeing with actions towards those that they disprove of instead of always blindly jacking off to "justice" porn.

Ask HN: The Anti Metaverse
The anti metaverse. What is it? As the world moves to an entirely virtual experience where we basically simulate the real world on screens, it makes me wonder, what if you don't want that? What if actually we just wanted a much simpler way to experience technology once more.

The true anti metaverse is obviously the real world, but technology has added a lot of value to our lives, I think like a lot of people here, we probably miss the old school experience of the internet that was purely text based and it makes me wonder, could you bring it back? Could the anti metaverse be a purely text based experience?

Technology has evolved to a point that we interact with a ton of point and click GUI stuff, but the speed of text is pretty amazing, it's why so many of us still live in terminals, it's why programming is still largely text based. Beyond the hacker dreams of recreating a simpler internet, it just feels like something so much more useful.

Oh my. I was about to commit the same crime myself.

We had an ADU built on the property a few years ago. Google Maps and OSM don't show it, only the main house. Even worse, there is some confusion about the street address.

We are on the corner of Foobar Road and Barfoo Avenue. The original address was on one of those streets, but a previous owner changed it from that one to the other. Some utilities think we are on Foobar, others on Barfoo.

I was going to contact those utilities, the various online maps, and the city building office to try to get all this straightened out.

But legal trouble is the last thing I need right now.

I guess I should just leave everything in its current incorrect and confusing state.
Until something is broken, and you need to step through 40 levels of stack (certainly no exaggeration) to try to figure out where something is happening, and where that exception is swallowed. Most often it's not the framework that is broken, but you still need to understand enough of the framework to figure out what is wrong where.

The main difference is those restaurants photograph their real products. Even though they use top tier food prep, lighting, camera work and editing for the shoot, they’ve shown the thing you’re ordering and it’s theoretically achievable by the local store.

I’m sure it’s possible to tune an AI to work within similar constraints but I haven’t seen that to exist yet. (You can shoot hundreds of photos of a chicken sandwich for much less money than trying to create one.)

I'd be happy with a few things:

1. Benchmarks of "pure" code like the response parser, which I could `cargo bench`. I may actually work on contributing this.

2. Some way to run benchmarks against a deployed server. I wouldn't recommend a Github action necessarily, a nightly job or manual job would probably be a better use of money/resources. If I could plug in some AWS creds and have it do the deployment and spit out a bunch of metrics for me that'd be wonderful.

Principle
I agree that there is a problem here, but I think its a slightly different one.

Frameworks and libraries both save you time and require you to invest some time. The main question is whether the savings will be bigger than the investment, and that question can be hard to answer.

In most cases we tend to err on the side of framework optimism - we presume a framework or library will always save time (don't reinvent the wheel, NIH syndrome, etc). Sometimes when we do this, its because we realize the deep rabbit hole of building something like the framework or library we're using. Other times, its because we don't know whether the hole is deep or not - we don't have the expertise to evaluate.

I think the second case is where most of the danger lies. Which is why, paradoxically, its a good idea for a software engineer to reimplement a few pieces of general purpose software in a more specific manner every once in a while and live with them for a longer time.

Unfortunately, this is not always possible; often the next best thing is to contribute to an existing open source project and ask (in the kindest way possible) why certain things were implemented in a certain way and/or learn from its commit and issue history. Learning doesn't mean you have to agree with the authors - in fact often even authors will lament certain design decisions that painted them into a corner or increased complexity unnecessarily.

Doing the above will make it easier to evaluate wheather a framework (or library) will save time or drain time. Without it, erring on the side of caution seems like the safer option, which is why we keep recommending it. However, sometimes the drain can be significantly bigger than the savings - if you're spending most of your time fighting the framework that's a signal that something is wrong and we should have a way of listening to that signal and responding strategically.

The downside of frameworks that I think the article is correct about: general-purpose software is really hard to get right. Every author has a specific set of experiences and needs which depend on their specific situation. It may be worth spending some time researching the kind of software built with that framework (or library) to see if there is any obvious bias that would make it not fit your problem domain or your specific context.
What sucks about Xiaomi 12/12X or Pixel 6A for instance? S22 would be also nice phone if it were not for not so great battery life (and most of the people won't notice slow shutter).

There are plenty of great phones depending on what's your requirements, now if you want SMALL Android phone you have very limited options with lots of compromises usually, if you don't care about size too much there are plenty of good options.

And the alternative is that they wouldn’t be able to participate at all.

In the end, I think the social rejection isn’t Apple to blame for. We don’t blame clothing brands for enabling kids to discern who wears ‘the real thing’ and who hasn’t, either.

Or do we want to blame Apple for trying to improve SMS for their users without going through a lengthy standards process? They were a small player at the time in the phone market, so they couldn’t expect an iPhone-only solution to succeed, and writing an app wasn’t really a thing yet, so they couldn’t have gone the route WhatsApp later took, so what could they have done instead?

The colors are UI to indicate to their users who has access to the improvements and who hasn’t. If Apple didn’t indicate in any way that some people have different features available to them, I think people would blame them for that.

Also, US (AFAIK, this is a US thing) kids likely would still learn who could and could not use the features Apple added to SMS.
If your message contains framework-dependent data, it wasn’t decoupled.

For example, in a typical web API, all the stuff concerning HTTP endpoints, JSON, OpenID Connect or whatever should be entirely separate from your domain logic. I’ve been doing this for years and it is very feasible.

Do you still have to write code where the framework dictates its structure? Absolutely. That’s the decoupling layer. Do you have to change this layer if you upgrade or switch frameworks? Also yes. However, you don’t have to touch the application core.

Author here.

I use Django and Rails as examples. Both are, indeed, "just a bunch of libraries". But many of those libraries, and especially their bundled collection, enforce certain behaviour, shape and architecture.

When you inherit from base-classes offered by a library, you are tightly coupling against that: i'd then stop calling it a library and call it a framework instead. The alternative would be a library that you inject, or compose.

There's a big difference between (Rails)

`class Project < ActiveRecord::Base; end`

and

class Project

def initialize(project_repo) # Ruby has no interfaces, but this would be something that has at least an `.add(project)`

@project_repo = project_repo

end

end

The first inherits, couples tightly to a bunch of libraries (ActiveRecord::Base really is just a bunch of modules that you could pick and choose) the former injects behaviour which might come from libraries, or might come from your own code.

>...nobody wants bank accounts opened in their name by unrelated parties.

How could you possibly open a bank account with someone's random signed document? A signature on paper identifies who signed it. That is the point. So a bank receiving a paper or PGP message that says "Please open an account" signed by Bob is somehow going to end up opening an account for someone else?

I think you might of gotten the "surreptitious forwarding" issue backwards. The issue is that you might think a signed message is to you when it was actually sent to someone malicious who then forwards it on to you. My point is that this issue is already well understood in our present civilization and doesn't need some sort of technical fix.

For the bank example, the bank you sent your strangely generic request for an account to would have to take that request and send it to another bank. So now you would end up with two accounts and on trivial investigation would know exactly what happened.

Bringing this back to age, the bank would get an unsigned request for an account and would have no way to know who originated it.

It's similar in Japan. Everyone here uses LINE, and AFAICT, absolutely no one does SMS texting any more. I don't even know the phone numbers of any of my friends here; everyone just exchanges LINE contact info by QR code and that's it. The only time anyone uses a phone number seems to be for non-personal purposes (e.g., calling a business or government office), and the only time SMS seems to get used is for automated messages from official places (like your utility companies).

A lot of people here have iPhones, but it's not because of some stupid blue bubble.

What's funny is that Americans will sometimes make fun of Japan because some people (mainly businesses, maybe some elderly people) still use FAX, but Americans are the ones who are all still using SMS.

Have you read the list of people responsible? Just about every county, state and some federal law enforcement organisations were responsible. They outright refused to police themselves or other government organisations, at minimum. Mostly they actively damaged children and when they saw crimes happen, did nothing.

And here 1 private organisation (relatively small, minuscule compared to the public organisations, and with literally zero control on what happens to kids)

The private organisation was THE ONLY organisation that was held responsible to any extent at all. For the long list of public organisations that were 10x as responsible as the private company, only employees were sued.

The problem is not law, the problem is not corporations or "failing to hold corporations accountable". The problem is that law enforcement organisations don't see any need for themselves to respect the law, even when it's being blatantly violated right in front of them. And when they do get caught, they find a scapegoat employee, a few employees, that then get destroyed, guaranteeing that nothing is done for the victims of these organisations and absolutely NO effect on the organisations themselves.

The problem is failing to hold GOVERNMENT accountable when it blatantly violates the law on a large scale. And yes, they used a company as a tool in violating the law. Sorry but that's a detail.

The damage done here was estimated at $150 million. How about that amount gets paid AGAIN, this time to the victims, 50/50 out of the budget of the justice department (GREATLY impacting the district attorney's office and the court, for obvious reasons) and out of youth services' budget. That will greatly "hold the corporation accountable", no worries. This will in fact mean the victims actually get something, and the people that are guilty, that actively worked to damage those kids, get punished.
