The Sequel ORM (mentioned in this article) is absolutely amazing. There is a plugin for Rails to swap out ActiveRecord with it as well.

It does a good job of letting the DB do its job. Like you can define complex constraints on tables in your database and then the corresponding models will automatically detect them and have the related app-level validations. So you can keep more data integrity enforcement in the database where your transactional guarantees are but still have nice error messages in your app without duplication.

If you're looping over a collection of records it can detect if you call an association method on one of them and load the same association for all the records you're looping over in a single query, avoiding most N+1 issues.

Lots more cool stuff too. I haven't used ActiveRecord in quite a while, so I'm not sure whether it has since absorbed some of the Sequel behavior, but it's definitely worth a look.
The grass is always greener! :-D

I smile because I left commercial art back in the 80's to become a software developer!

More power to Laim and I hope it works out well for him, but I have my doubts. Working as a full-time (especially on-staff) artist answerable to an Art Director sucks!! Artists are not respected, paid terribly and just generally considered disposable. At least that's how it was in my day.

Again, Liam, go for it, but keep your eyes open going into it! Some things are better left as hobbies (which I do not consider a dirty word)!
This is disney+hulu+espn combined!

When hotstar was bundled with Hulu - hulu suddenly got huge infusion of Indian movies and shows. Nothing Netflix has even comes close.

I wonder also, if they are counting hotstar, which is pretty big in India.

Having said that - I personally find content on disney+ boring and stale. Some Marvel and Star War spin offs are okay, but most are meh. I don't know how to put it, but disney+ is trying too hard to en-cash popularity of existing franchise and I believe lacks depth.

Netflix while has uneven programming has/had shows which are pretty good and break new ground(IMO). Queen's Gambit, Dragon Prince, Arcana etc are pretty good. They have also wasted money on the whole witcher show and their "original" movies are by and large meh.
Many media outlets have been hinting at recession and predicting layoffs for sometime as all of the BigTech supposedly have a freeze on new hiring. Let's not forget that a war is going on in Europe and it is only going to escalate in the coming months ... next year is going to be even shittier.

No moderator touched your comment. What is going on here?
"VHS" as the name of a software project seems like it'll be doomed to obscurity, because it's effectively impossible to find in a search engine unless you include other very specific keywords.
They’re out there—but I just ran EXPLAIN ANALYZE on my company’s search for them, and the query planner’s not too happy. It has to scan the entire resume heap before doing an on-site join with candidates, all while dealing with resource contention from queries of other employers. I know recruiters and e.g. triplebyte, stackoverflow all offer indexes to speed up this search, but in our case those indexes wouldn’t fit in cash.
Right, but it lives with your application code and has the same syntax as the application code. That's probably preferable to SQL stored procedures (which often live outside source control).
Anecdotally: not in a battle. I have unsubscribed from Netflix last year and got Disney+/Hulu for free. So these services are not fighting for my money!
At this point, HL3 has been so hyped for so long that I imagine it would be Herculean to satisfy expectations.
> am I the only one surprised by how good Prime Video is?

It's usually an expression, but you may, in fact, be the only one.

Prime is the UHF of streaming platforms carrying the WTBS catalog of content.

It's free, towards the end of the dial, and almost all re-runs with the occasional trophy showpiece.

I don't think they were able to "become HBO faster than HBO can become us"[1] and now they're paying the price. They have effectively zero moat with their own IP and now they're competing with everyone else for the same creative talent without an ability to separate the wheat from the chaff resulting in quality all over the map.

Not sure if sarcasm… Disney bundles Disney+/Hulu/ESPN.
Very true. But at least they might make some money from something of their choosing on their own terms. That can’t be too bad.
I did this, and I'm happy. Caveat is that my medium is code.
Yes, it has. There's tons of bikes for $200-$4000. If you're only looking at $10k bikes, that's your problem and it's to be expected that prices will be ridiculously high. This is exactly like complaining that Rolls Royces are too expensive.
ATT has already fired the original crew of HBO executives that curated HBO’s selection, and now that the reality TV show sellers are the bosses, I doubt they will want to take the chances that the old HBO bosses had taken.

Cool little use of VHS! I particularly enjoyed the Jurassic Park one. Made me realize I could always have my terminal like that, I don’t have to use black at 25% transparency like I have without question for years. So thanks for that.

In the article it says it will integrate with existing solutions so I imagine it will work simply as a front end if you want.

That makes sense to get people using Zoom more and being more ingrained in people’s workflows. Companies are looking at what pandemic software services they can now cut from their budgets. Most Microsoft shops already have Teams. It isn’t as good, but is it good enough that a business could do without Zoom? Will our users revolt? Zoom is trying to make sure they will revolt.

I am no expert but wonder if the Maginot Line could be more useful as long term reusable defence.

Yes, that's obvious to me too. My point was not whether it was common, but where it came from.

Music is consumed differently than TV/movies.

People these days usually don't listen to entire albums, but to individual songs as part of playlists. If all record labels created their own streaming services, it would break this experience and people would go back to piracy again to get it back.

Further, music is something that usually exist in the background while people do other things, whereas movies/shows requires attention to benefit from the content.

Service like Netflix or Disney+ can manage to create exclusivities because people watch episodes of a show in sequence due to the nature of the medium and are emotionaly engaged/invested in the story/characters, so they are essentially "captive" of that serialized content for its duration.
Those with finances and influence. Or do you think that public defenders and private attorneys yield comparable outcomes? As but one example.
As much as I think they should have stuck to their previous scheme, I doubt they're just going to hand out "official" without checking into the validity of the account. It's going to be harder since they eliminated the vast majority of those people, but not impossible. This is unlikely to be the disaster that Musk critics are hoping for, but it won't be super smooth either.
Notably, according to crypto evangelists. No one thought the internet was a fad. It had a time when it was novel and therefore people who didn't know how to use it would make fun of it, but absolutely no one who used it thought it was a 'fad'. As soon as the first web browser became accessible to consumers the dot com era exploded. There is a difference between 'didn't hit mass adoption due to massive infrastructure needing to be built in real time' and 'we don't know what this is useful for'.

None of the major Python implementations do any AoT compilation.

Python is probably the poster-child language of "interpreted". It's run, line-by-line through an interpreter, and turned into byte-code, which is executed by the VM. There's no compilation, and in CPython, very little optimisation. PyPy is obviously different on that last point as it's a JIT, but the larger point still stands.

People mostly aren't willing to pay for music exclusives. (Tidal tried to make a go of it, but that hasn't really gone well for them). People are willing to sign up for Amazon just to watch The Grand Tour or whatever, but there's no real analogue to that in the music world. Maybe because a single album or even a single artist is too "small" to make an impact?

Compare the fact that people used to pay for (individual!) cable TV channels, but there was no equivalent for radio - a few people did pay for satellite radio, but I don't think you ever got people signing up for the premium package in the same way they did on TV.
"That's all well and good procedually." Which is all I was referring to.

"Maybe we should reevaluate what the system prioritizes making easy and what it makes hard. Don't you think? " Doesn't matter what I think at this juncture. The lawyers did what they could effectively do.

You can be 'right' at some normative level, you can be effective at a practical one. Rarely in life do you get both with any consistency.
beyond the fact that the dynamics of saying "we'll take everything at a certain price up to $1.1B" will likely lead to much more than that showing up on the market and leading to a price crash anyways... I imagine that an off market transaction can involve things like not sending $1.1B in cash to the other person the same day.
A judge absolutely would care about that. The actual claim language, not the patent description, defines what is patentable. Accidentally including specificity in the claim beyond what is needed to overcome rejections will absolutely kill the enforcability of the patent.
Meta’s issues are not related to the macro environment. Meta has issues much more specific to its own business:

- they admitted a revenue shortfall a couple of quarters ago caused by Apple’s ATT which made tracking opt-in

- “Facebook is for old people” and other platforms are seeing more engagement

- They are wasting billions on the metaverse.

While Google, Apple, Microsoft and Amazon (disclaimer where I work) have all seen declines in stock price and revenue. There is no indication that neither of them are having the same existential issues that Meta has had.

If Meta disappeared tomorrow, would anyone care or would they just move on to the next fad? Microsoft, Amazon and Apple have shown the ability to pivot and to adjust. Google hasn’t. But so far hasn’t had to.
Even if overall headcount declines there will always be top talent they want to pull in for strategic advantage. In layoffs they just want to shed (what they see as) their lowest performers.
They'd also have to be able to serve you with the lawsuit, which is far from easy if you post the code anonymously online.
Sad to see the pirates fall.

I guess Apple was the last of the good old companies to finally give in and start it's path to destruction.

Time for the pirate flags to fly high. Hopefully young kids are not just leet coding and actually building brilliant stuff.
chroot is fine, though often I will also want resource limits (usually via cgroups) and an IP address (usually via network namespaces.)

Often I don't even need chroot, just resource limits and an IP address - and the latter probably wouldn't be necessary with a distribution/proxy switch or if if DNS returned IP:port (which arguably it could.)
I would call bullshit on them talking to laid off folks. If they had enough folks in the pipeline, they wouldn't be talking to you.

> Wrong. Russia using nukes in Ukraine will inevitably lead to a nuclear conflict between NATO and Russia. I just pray Russia's military refuses to use nukes to decide the military adventure started by Putin.

I don't know about "inevitably" but I'd agree to "very likely." On the other hand, NATO not being directly involved in the Ukraine makes it less likely that nukes will be used in the Ukraine. When the other side has nukes, the fog-of-war means you may wrongly think that they were used, and retaliate with nukes.

> it was a reasonable assumption that "driving", in this case, was referring to operation of a motor vehicle.

Florida law[1] defines a vehicle as follows:

>> (106) VEHICLE.—Every device in, upon, or by which any person or property is or may be transported or drawn upon a highway, except personal delivery devices, mobile carriers, and devices used exclusively upon stationary rails or tracks.

You can certainly drive vehicles without a motor equipped (animal driven vehicles, bicycle, etc)

> You said "Unless the road has a minimum speed limit posted, there's no requirement to drive at or near the speed limit." and I refuted that statement. Driving 20mph under the speed limit is most definitely impeding 'normal' traffic flow.

If there are multiple lanes of traffic, it's easy enough to change lanes to pass a slower vehicle, so driving under the posted speed limit isn't necessarily a violation of that law. Also the law[2] does allow for vehicles moving at less than the normal speed of traffic to use the roadways as long as they use the right most lane or keep as far right as practicable.

It also depends on whether one has to comply with the law or operate at a reduced speed for safe operation. So, for instance, in inclement weather conditions, you have to drive slower. The same applies if the vehicle has a compact spare tire mounted that doesn't allow operation at normal speeds. In the case of a bicycle, it's not reasonable to expect that one can go faster than a cyclist is capable of going, like one can't expect a truck to sustain speeds over 100 mph. There's actually a court ruling[3] from Ohio that goes into more detail about this particular line of reasoning (where their slow vehicle law applies to all vehicles, not just motor vehicles).

Well it's really a patent for a method which includes both software and hardware (the sensors). It still might be an Art 84 rejection but I don't know enough about the EPO to say. They haven't filed any international patents, though, so it would not at all be enforceable in Europe even if it was patentable subject matter.
> It's so weird to me that "write programs that do one thing well" is constantly referred to as "The Unix Philosophy" [...] If anything can be said to be the actual lived Unix philosophy it's probably something like: 1) Try to make your programs communicate using text, where the 'record' is separated by a newline. [..etc..]

The Unix Philosophy isn't just about writing programs that do one thing well (and FWIW it isn't really a philosophy or dogma, it is more of a guideline/goal), there are a bunch of things. The "write programs that do one thing well" is just one ways to think about it.

The most common set of goals is:

1. Write programs that do one thing and do it well.

2. Write programs to work together.

3. Write programs to handle text streams, because that is a universal interface.

But there is really more to it as can be seen in the Wikipedia page[0], like ESR's 19 rules and Mike Gancarz (who wrote the "The UNIX Philosophy" book from his experiences) 9 tenets (three of the most common being using flat text files for data, avoiding captive user interfaces as that makes composition harder and making programs act as filters).

Really at the very core is the goal to make programs that can be glued together with other programs (often via scripts) to perform tasks and communicate in ways (pretty always via text) that humans can see so that they can stitch them together even if they know nothing about each other (for example even if two or more programs they use different formats for their input/output, since they use text, other common tools like grep, awk, etc can be used as filters/pipes directly or via scripts to connect them together).

This is where the "do one thing" comes from: if your program acts as a filter and/or communicates just via text, there is no need to complicate your program by adding functionality that another program can provide since a user can simply glue the two together. For example if you have some program that returns the values of some sensors you don't need to add search or filtering functionality since one can use grep and awk for that.
