I've been working with Lisp for over twenty-two years and still got tripped up recently by something that was

(if (condition) ;; <- must be when, not if!
(do-this)
(do-that))

Phony complaints about problems with editing parentheses and getting them to match are just trolling nonsense, but Lispers should acknowledge this kind of problem: when your editor has already helped you ensure that the code has valid syntax, everything is beautifully indented and compiles without diagnostics, but you have a mistake like this: parentheses being closed in the wrong place, not including something, or the wrong operator like the above.

There are similar problems in other languages; no notation is perfect, and attempted cures for some of these problems can be worse than the diseases.

GCC's relatively recent "misleading indentation" warning is a good example of a cure that has no downside (that I can quickly think of). It can catch code like:

if (condition)
do_this();
do_that(); // not part of the if statement, but indented deceptively

No language save you from writing a program similar to the one you should be writing, but which is correct for a different set of requirements relative to what you want. Just verification and testing.
Video might be a problem. I think intel integrated graphics might be UEFI only now, I don't know if they still have the text modes that DOS uses.
Yeah I addressed this here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33584880

I think the distinction is that the UI needs to run locally so that shortcut-rich powerful apps don't have to fight for the keybinding space with the browser.

I'd say that the migration to the client-server approach for professional software is already underway, with VS Code of course being the canonical example, but my (limited) understanding is that Blackmagic's Da Vince Resolve (which is currently eating Premiere and Media Composer's lunch) also uses a similar model where data can be stored remotely but the UI runs locally.

While not parody, the 4th fair use factor ("The effect of the use on the potential market") would save memes.
This in my opinion, is the one true answer.

Same when people post "I built X with Language Y" and some one comments "Why did you use Y? You should have used Z". What difference does it make? You don't like it don't use it!

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for constructive criticism but sometimes the comments do not come across as criticisms but as attacks.

Again, just my opinion.
> The device does meet my needs, it has a very capable ARM processor inside and a decent-looking screen. The only thing I need an alternative for is software, and Apple goes out of their way to prevent me from using software that respects my freedom as a user.

“yes the Tesla body frame meets my needs. But the battery I knew was bundled with it can’t use unleaded gas and I need to drive to rural areas where there aren’t any battery chargers available.”

> Ah yes, the tried-and-true "but look at [OTHER-INDUSTRY]" strawman. Console and smart TV vendors are not in the smartphone industry, much less even get treated as part of the computing industry. They're regulated as appliances

So consoles “are regulated as appliance” (no they are not regulated much at all) even though they are computers that are meant to serve one purpose. But the phone, which is a computer that is meant to serve one purpose is not an “appliance”.

Where are these “regulations” you speak of?

Are you claiming that Epic would have had no basis to sue console makers on the same grounds they sued (and failed) Google and Apple?
Like the Arab spring? Nah.

It was just a close election and Lula won. It looks like it was a clean election. Sometimes the party you like win. Sometimes the party you like lose. Sometimes the candidate of the of your party is a moron. Sometimes the candidate of the of the other party is a moron. Sometimes both are morons. Just wait 4 years for the next election.

[Hi from Argentina! Once we have candidates for the precedential election next year, you are welcome to call them morons if you like.]
Mighty was conceived at a really dark time in Mac laptop performance.

The combination of Intel Mac Laptops that had horrible thermal characteristics, browsers that didn’t do anything to throttle background tabs, bloated websites and limited memory created a perfect storm of awful performance that Mighty could address.

Almost all of that isn’t true anymore (besides the bloated websites which browsers manage better), which decimated the potential Mighty market (people willing to spend hundreds a year on a fast browser).
Lately I have voted the local issues and leave everything else blank. Locally I care what they do and can actually talk to city council.
Deeply and needlessly cynical. rui tried to fund a high-value software infrastructure project on its own merit and it's not feasible long term. So a change is required.

Hardly a bait and switch 'extortion'.
To a degree yes but acting like anything that uses <500MB of RAM is a disaster goes beyond what is a reasonable concern in my opinion.
Technically, both the original Open Source Definition https://opensource.org/osd and the older Free Software Definition https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html.en#translations both explicitly require the ability to use programs in a commercial context.

In the case of the Free Software Definition, this makes perfect sense: the FSF wants people to have certain freedoms at work, as well as freedom in their personal lives.

The other challenge is that turning an open source project into a proprietary project isn't as simple as changing the license and asking for money. You need to build an entire business from scratch, and learn to close sales somehow (or sell to consumers). This will take up at least half your time.
Her dad used to be Gary Gensler’s boss. That’s a conflict of interest given what FTX was requesting from the government (a “no-action” finding).
My pain point was that my friends were fragmented among MSN, AIM, Skype, Google etc. and I had to pay for texts so I always used online messaging instead

When I was able to add everyone on Facebook I was able to keep track of everyone, and also connect to all the XMPP networks.

Currently it doesn't serve this purpose because it's no longer a universal messenger, so I don't go on it
https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/operator_arithmet...:

“If the pointer P points to the ith element of an array, then the expressions P + n, n + P, and P - n are pointers of the same type that point to the i+nth, i+nth, and i-nth element of the same array, respectively. The result of pointer addition may also be a one-past-the-end pointer (that is, pointer P such that the expression P - 1 points to the last element of the array). Any other situations (that is, attempts to generate a pointer that isn't pointing at an element of the same array or one past the end) invoke undefined behavior.”
Isn't this somewhat achievable already with cloud hosted vms, like AWS workspaces? IAM rules, SSO, etc, gets you a long way there I would imagine?

API can be a very thin layer that a well constructed client can utilize right from the "view" (a React component). A template file in a backend framework is a one-way feature in the majority of cases. You have to construct and pass _all_ its context (or create helpers, global context, etc) every time. So the controller needs to request data, prepare it (template data manipulation is mostly minimal), pass it. Basically a controller starts doing too many things over time, too much business logic is added to accommodate pretty low featured templates.

> Don't you pass already massive JSON payloads from your API endpoints down to your client to update the views?

Not really. You send many parallel API requests from the client, each response is a smaller JSON. And when you navigate to the next page, most of its data is already in your state, so you have to request just the missing part (e.g. a different post). When you are constructing context for a page on the backend you have to provide all its context every time. The template doesn't make requests based on some logic.

>the SEC and CFTC are implicated

Do we have a hard paper trail? Not that I doubt it, but I know apologists who will and it would be nice to have more than 'Gensler took a class by the Alameda CEO's dad once".

I sure hope someone who knows how to dig is working on connecting these dots and just being quiet about it. Because I haven't seen anything substantive and these regulators are going to get away with no one the wiser.

He has made huge political donations with the money he stole. But I don't think even that will protect him. He stole money from the wealthy and if there is anything that the American justice system does well, it is methodically going after and grinding to dust anyone who steals from the wealthy ruling class. Be it a Walmart shoplifter who stole hundreds, or a crypto scammer who stole billions.

And I think the political donations will actually have almost no beneficial impact now. Because he is going to be broke. They already have his donations and he is now tainted and likely broke going forward, so they have no reason to be loyal.
> want decentralized cryptocurrencies

But what for? I think for many of the rest of us, crypto continues to be a solution in need of a problem, and a field full of crooks in general. Even if it was without crooks, it would still seem like an extremely high risk proposition with tenuously far fetched value-add.
Yes, the business context is holding back such amazing innovation for voice assistants like Siri! There are also a couple apps I use, one being brain.fm, which I would love to see integrate with Siri for voice control but I believe they don’t because they have to pay to integrate with Siri. Or is Siri integration free from an app developer perspective?
I once worked in a financial firm with an intern who did nothing else besides pick his nose. No joke, that's the only thing he did. He made no attempt to do actual work or help our team and no attempt to hide his nose picking.

His father was a senior executive and so he knew he would get a seat on the equity trading desk no matter what, so he didn't care about us. I hated that guy, and I hated him even more because I knew his career would be way more successful than mine would ever be.

The finance industry (and surely other industries) have this concept of "pedigree" that values some people more than others. It's bad for the organizations because poorly qualified nose-pickers get promoted as they coast by in life, while others who are working hard to improve themselves and add value will either get passed over or used as pawns.
If they're not doing the work then I doubt they care about what got them hired. Ultimately each person should be judged on their own merits, I wouldn't hold a relation against someone if they still do their job.

Another question to ask... Is the person where they are because of their parents or in spite of them?

I've thought about this a bit and my conclusion is similar. Basically that hodl needs to change or there will be a long"crypto winter." The idea of crypto is good but it has become a get rich scheme. No one not even millionaire's are trying to use crypto for anything and that has to change. Anyone with crypto needs to start spending it, maybe shoot for 10% of your total HODL amount? I was thinking how to sell it to the masses. HODL+SPEND?

I've started paying for online services where possible with my measly amount of crypto.

OP does need to interact with more humans in places outside of academia and work. for someone that doesn't know their interests, going to the generic social option is great advice.
Pragmatically speaking, their website will always be unique because they are the largest company in the world, and have a liquid budget of ~$200 billion to spend on whatever marketing, research or development they please.

crypto, gold, art are asset classes that don't produce anything. So, you have to find other suckers to pay higher. But all three is based on scarcity. So, it is a supply/demand philosophy (vs cash generating assets like Bonds, Stocks, Real Estate). At least BTC/ETH/Art/Gold has natural supply limits, so the only unknown is demand. How do you induce demand? By telling stories about the asset class.

Art lends itself to natural storytellling. What about Gold and Bitcoin? The charlatans and hucksters and persuaders quickly figured out that "hating government" is universal and scales very easily. So peddling Gold/Silver became easy in the name of government and Gold performed the role of this anti-government asset class for quite a long period.

The initial internet adapters, Gen-Xers also leveraged internet (zerohedge, infowars, dredge report) to amplify anti-government/elite hate and peddle gold. This worked pretty much till 2012.

But, 2012 onwards Millennials started to take control of the internet narrative and buying Gold wasn't easy on the internet. So, they latched on to this new anti-government asset class, BTC.

The era of influencers and social media accelerated Crypto story-telling culminating in peak viral story telling in 2020/21 due to the pandemic (combined with unprecedented free money both for the rich and poor).

Cryptocurrencies are here to stay, thanks to it scalable narrative about anti-government with 8 Billion Total Addressable Market.

However, BTC maximalists should be wary about BTC as the one-true asset class. As wealth concentrates among the 0.1% of BTC holders, and poor environmental impact story around BTC, newer generation may revolt and rally around another poor-man cryptocurrency (like Dogecoin or something else).
This is really cool! I’m definitely gonna try this out in one of my favorite languages. I love these types of project-based learning. You learn so much by going through them.
not really an FFT approach, but you can take a euclidean rhythm or really any discrete rhythm for that matter and compute its slot weights. checkout https://github.com/clumsycomputer/clumsy-math#rhythm-slot-we... for more details.

you can use a rhythm's slot weights to set a wave's amplitude, phase, or frequency. just need to decide on some continuous <=> discrete mapping
Can you name some example companies? I had thought that the .com implosion was more about consumer Internet sites (i.e. Portals) than business to business.

I have had similar experiences; I did a lot of water fasting, lost a lot of weight (50lbs over 18mos), and then after all that fasting the sugary things just were not as appealing.

On top of that, I find it easier to go into water fasting if I've been in ketosis for a bit, which is difficult in itself.

But for that, I've found it helpful to remove other dietary restrictions; I don't typically eat dairy, and the stuff I do like to eat in keto is often much more expensive than the beans and rice / peanuts/ fruit that are the staples of my diet when I'm not trying to force ketosis or fast. Eating nicer food (usually meats, lots of eggs, dairy) makes being that process easier.
I don’t believe a lot of this was institutional money.

> The pun about "8088 MPH" is the "Intel 8088" was used an "MPH" obviously stands for "miles per hour", a rather fast pace.

It’s also a Back To The Future (1985) reference! (The Delorean had to reach 88mph in order to time travel.) It captures the “new demo for a 1980s computer” situation on several levels.

88 MPH is a Back to the Future reference. "When this baby hits 88mph, you're gonna see some serious shit!" And there's a Delorean in the "we don't need sprites" section.
Thanks for your valuable feedback and suggestions. I greatly appreciate it.

The one thing I'm concerned about regarding the positioning of "a project management suite for solos and small teams" is that people will question: "If my team grows bigger, does the app still work well for us? Or we have to find another solution?"
Chapter 2 is an excellent dive into some of the more unfamiliar and confusing features emulated by terminal emulators.

It would be neat to have an equivalent set-up using a GUI toolkit instead, but the terminal is good enough to work with.

In a broader sense, it's pretty frustrating to know that we are still emulating features (like ctrl-[s,q]) that only really made sense in the context of a physical terminal. The amount of work and frustration we could save with a modern equivalent to terminal emulators (without historical baggage) would be really significant.
It seems like there’s some interest here in what progress has been made in appetite suppressants recently.

The drug mentioned in these links was just FDA approved this year and some are calling it a legit breakthrough.

Yeah, when we built our product (kitemaker.co) we introduced offline capabilities quite early because my co-founder often had very spotty wifi during train commutes. We ended up making all writes totally optimistic with data sync in the background. Has the nice performance benefit of the frontend never waiting for the server as well.
“I spent the last 15 years raising a happy family and have good relationships with my children” is probably worth a lot more than career advancement and would likely reduce the divorce rate quite a bit. That’s not even considering the broader societal impacts of increased wages for everyone due to restricting labour supply, the creation and maintenance of strong family networks and communities and the improvement of QOL and reduction in expenses you get when you don’t have to outsource food, care, and attention to boxed meals, day care and screens. We only have ourselves to blame for the current mess we’re in.
I’d love to see this article more fully fleshed out. What happened after the split?
Yeah, it really looks like that in the developed world. In the developing world, however, it solves some very real problems (think remittances), maybe not 100% effectively, but much better than what it's competing with.
Exactly. I'm very pro-ethereum tech but still think it's been overpriced for some time. I "shorted" (via compound borrow/leverage) some and am still waiting for it to go down . Around $600 I feel is the correct price, i would close my positions at $800.

But even with all the crap that's been happening, it doesn't go sub $1000... I'll keep waiting.
Non-commercial OSS projects is a contradiction in terms.
The BSL (the proposed license) is fairly clear about this if you read the license. Most sole proprietorships and corporations of all types that make money or sell a product using it would have to pay. It's not clear that any of this is legally enforceable, though.
The radar knows where the plane is at all times. It knows this because it knows where the plane isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is, whichever is greater, it obtains a difference, or deviation.
That’s the point of the signature the above poster suggested - if you use the app secret to generate a signature of the valid parameters, then the client can’t edit this list without invalidating the signature and there is no risk of them modifying other fields. If your secret is compromised such that this becomes possible, you have way bigger problems.

I’m not super keen myself as I prefer the implementation to be much more explicit than magic, but there doesn’t seem to be an obvious security hole here.
