I don't want to derail the comments on this post too much, but it's called Notado (another commenter has already linked it) and I have posted about it a few times on HN before (all in my submissions history).

There are quite a few high-quality discussion threads on those previous posts that are worth checking out if you're interested in learning more!
The answer lies in the answer to why Rust added `dyn traits`…

Indeed Rust striked some kind of sweet spot because it got the defaults right.

Syntactic it mimics mostly the OOP approach, but without the conceptional burdens behind it.

Still Rust could not do without dynamic dispatch (which is the—wrong—default in OOP).

In the (admittedly) seldom cases where you need dynamic dispatch & runtime polymorphism you just need them.

You could build this stuff by hand (and people did in the past in languages without this features built-in) but having dedicated language level support for that makes it much more bearable.

Structs + the impl system is static dispatch. This just can't replace dynamic dispatch. If it could nobody would have ever invented v-tables…
A while back I decided to build a homebrew system based on the TMS99105A CPU, thanks both to this article and to Ben Eater's terrific videos. It's a pretty cool platform. It's been my first real exposure to working in assembly language and I've been having a blast.

Due to the way the it provides bus status signals, you can effectively build a system with completely separate memory address spaces for executable code and data ... and a another separate address space for both of those when you use the built-in memory mapper support. It gets more fun if you can take advantage of the way it handles a subset of unimplemented opcodes: it shelves the current workspace and treats the opcode like a branch call. The 990/12 minicomputer and the 99110A CPU use this technique, branded "Macrostore," to add floating point instructions to the platform.

That's three separate memory address spaces each for instructions and data... and another entirely separate address space for I/O devices!

I really like this thing and one fine day I'll actually have something concrete enough to publish an article about it. If you want to learn more about the clever and insane things that 9900-series fans are doing, your best bet is heading over to the Atari Age forums where there are a bunch of homebrew software and hardware projects in progress: https://forums.atariage.com/forum/119-ti-994a-development/

Somewhere buried in there you'll also find commentary from TI employees and other insiders about this article.
Obviously the best part of Functional Programming is arguing about the pedantics of whether a language or construct is actually "functional"
Are you looking to replace the current version of the file (undoing changes to the file back to a past commit) or are you trying to make a new file containing the contents of the file at the time of the past commit?

For the former, there's git checkout <branch> -- <filepath>, which has been given it's own command as git restore --source <branch> filename.

For the latter, there's git show <ref>:<filepath>, which you then pipe into the file you want to write, like

git show master:src/main.js > temp_main_old.js
> They also suggest Alphabet nix Waymo, citing "enthusiasm for self-driving cars has collapsed" and it's "unlikely to achieve profit in the short term".

I suspect regulatory hurdles and public opinion are an issue they foresee, and would rather let someone else develop the tooling, change public opinion and fight the regulatory issues. Then they can either catch up (leveraging information about how a competitor works), or they can buy someone else out at a cost lower than developing it themselves.

I think the Tesla and Uber incidents have lowered both public and regulatory acceptance of self-driving vehicles, and Google sees it as an uphill fight to change that even if they were at a point to launch their product.
Their own decisions. They want to spread little breakages over many realeases instead of collecting them into big breakages, due to the 2 to 3 fiasco. Feels like an over-correction imho.
It's early days for Compose on iOS. I doubt it'll have good accessibility support yet. I think most apps would rather use native UI on iOS.
Instead of making sure it's safe for kids to walk outside, police throw the parents of the kids walking outside in jail.

Only in america..

Downvoted ? Really? People agree that it seems reasonable to put parents in jail for letting their kids walk outside ?
I walked to and from school when I was 6 years old, no problem...
If society has degenerated to the point where it's not safe for a kid to walk on the street, then we don't need to make it illegal for kids to walk on the streets, we need to make the streets safe.
We just moved to Sweden from Missouri; yesterday I picked up our 3yo from daycare and had this exchange:

Kid: <Happily playing with clay>

Teacher: Oh, by the way, he fell out of a small tree today, he was climbing and fell, so he may have a small bruise, just so you are aware

Me: Oh ok. What tree?

Teacher: Oh we took them to <forest 5 miles from daycare> and grilled hot dogs today!

Kid: I found a snail!
Before trying so hard to put your thoughts into the ether, stop for a moment and ask yourself if you can’t find the answer to that question. Is everyone on the fucking planet wrong? Or are you being stupid? Are stocks different from crypto? Why was there a need to bail out mortgage buyers? Did everyone just wake up one day and make a decision or is there detailed reasoning available for your perusal should you choose to look?

Yet the population continues to demand more miles of roads than budgets could conceivably maintain. Framing this as a moral issue doesn't really make sense. If our goal is to fix potholes we can, but the bill for fixing all potholes would mean big changes to priorities and taxation. Whatever other factors may be involved it seems pretty clear that the US is going to be forced into a road diet at least in the short term.
*With current battery technology

We have no idea what batteries may be possible in the future. It may be a decade or a hundred years, but one day that may very well be possible.
The entire increase is lock step with interest rate increases. Home prices will drop in a few months once demand dries up. Nothing particularly surprising here.

Btw I meant this as an earnest question, you got me thinking. How are fridge manufacturers able to have consistent pricing while car makers aren’t?

Apple sets a floor price through razor thin margins but how do they set a ceiling?
Well thank you. It was obviously intellectually lazy of me to say that the myocarditis in young people were mild without any qualifying term such generally. And indeed the German vaccine watchdog from which I was quoting from memory uses 'primarily mild' to describe the myocarditis cases identified to coincide with vaccination.

Still I thing the whole thread of discussions shows that people are afraid of something which isn't such a big deal.
Interesting! Thanks for sharing
There are massive black market uses and massive uses for people evading capital controls in the rest of the world.

Crypto can basically function as an extended version of dollarization in countries that have institutionally failed to manage their own currency (think the naira or the Turkish lira).
I live in continental Europe, where kids being out is total chill pretty much everywhere. I remember being 10-12 y.o. going alone to school (15 min walk) every day, and hanging out with folks playing soccer until dark in the summer (~10PM).

While the US seems totally out of place with those laws, it seems UK is not far away. My brother's kids are 10 & 13 y.o. and it's real problem every time they have school vacation (several times per year), they must stay home all day because guess what, parents don't have unlimited vacation, and they're scared to let kids go out to play alone, not for something happening to them, but for someone noticing and reporting it. It's nuts.
It is not. Or more accurately, TikTok overtook FB ( and all the stuff it was doing to all the other populations including US-sians ) so the risk comes from a perceived competitor ( or adversary as some are oh-so-ready to point out ) doing the same thing WE were/are doing all those god damn years.

I apologize. The conversation makes me mildly upset, because we are saying our information and population control was fine. It is only when control happens to be used by the wrong party everyone is shocked. Just shocked.

Like, we built this tool for mass gathering of data and information on people. How could anyone have predicted that it could be used against us?

I am sure it was predicted, but, well, its the good guys using it so its all-ok.
I walked this distance every day to school as a second grader and so did many other second graders. I crossed major roads, though there were crossing guards at some but not all intersections. This was 30 years ago.

Today I spend time in Poland. It is normal for elementary children to walk to school or play in parks unsupervised in major cities.

Even Texas seems to have lost it. What a sad and sorry state of things.
I've been a regular Evernote paying user since the mid-naughts, using it mostly as a document archive (the built-in OCR is nice) ... but usage kicked off for me when I switched my main workhorse to a MacBook Pro two months ago. I guess it's mostly related to Evernote suddenly being fast.
Semi-independent federal reserves?

We can quibble about fiat/currency vs banking, but technically the government owns all money.

Granted, retail and last-mile banking seems a poor fit for government control.

Although from memory Japan offers retail banking services through their postal service? (for historical quirk reasons, see: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Post_Bank )
I think most people at this point call WSL1 "WSL1". That does seem to be the lasting "names" of these: WSL1 and WSL2. Arguably they aren't version numbers at all but naming in the way people name Word docs that start off as clones and slowly diverge. Perhaps someday we'll get WSL.Final and WSL.Final.Final to truly close the loop on the Word doc style naming scheme.
Having digital dollars is completely unrelated to banning hard currency. I know this because the vast majority of current dollar business is completely digital, and hard currency exists.

> Title 2 above seems to describe a government appointed regulator in case of failure

Receivership is different from nationalisation. It’s aimed at winding down or disposing of the asset on a short timeline. For comparison, we’re FTX in receivership, its assets would be controlled by a third party whose job would be to protect it for users’ benefit.
I disagree. I think a slightly better way that just politely nodding is to say "I stand firmly by my decision to allow my child to roam freely within my neighborhood."
At its root lies our desire to make our lives maximally meaningful, to the point where the existence of billions of people in the future can be traced back to one maximally effective decision or act.

At once the lyrics from Taylor Swift’s new song makes so much more sense:

so in merica, in land o da three, parents get thrown in jail for letting their kids walk alone? meanwhile here in scary eastern europe every non-rainy night i cant go sleep because apparently its ok that there are kids all over the place playing unsupervised ... you know ... having fun ... being kids ... not dogs on a leash

This is why I like living in a neighborhood that isn't suburban and doesn't have nosy neighbors bothering you. Sure there's more loud noises like cars and motorcycles and parties, and there's a few more rusted out cars in yards, but I wouldn't trade my neighbors for 100 upper-middle-class yuppies who get into your business.

Hah yeah I worked in payments at once of the card processors, this happened every year like clockwork. 1-2 months just down the drain because everyone running around gossiping or sitting at their desk in terror.

It was such a joke, but I used to be of the belief that the card processors were so incredibly profitable, that they had to actually waste money to not be targeted by regulators too much (which monitored their profit levels to determine if they wanted to impose lower card fee rates). So these kinds of things were actually healthy for the business, along with insane travel and entertainment budgets - I used to routinely spend >$10,000 on plane flights back to HQ from Asia.
The article doesn't suggest that at all, as far as I can tell. None of what you quoted indicates that is.
I did expect the first paragraph to explain that they are not really "chargers". But no, nowhere in the article they mention EVSE.
I’m aware of the risks of a compromised machine, but if a company doesn’t trust its own software devs with local root/Administrator privileges (which are absolutely required for doing one’s job in SWE if you’re doing anything in drivers/hardware) then they don’t trust them to do their job. It boggles the mind.
Mercurial has a far better user experience and mental model. The commonly used commands simply do what their names say: hd add, hg commit, hg revert, hg update, and so on.

Git is a twisty maze of operations combined under poor names (e.g. git reset) with dozens of obscure options (e.g. man git-log) and broken abstractions (e.g. what is HEAD and why does Git emit a warning whenever I check out a tag?). I often feel so sad that the entire software industry has fallen to Stockholm syndrome under Git — we think these contortions are normal, when in fact they are arcane.
That's actually not true [1] - the FDIC has continued the practice of covering balances over the insured limit despite not being required to.

Not sure if any US banks got so far as legitimizing crypto.

There was a big lobbying push to fool representatives into making the ponzi circus legit.

But then FTX suddenly disappeared below the waves, so I think that's on hold right now.
> SQL against a relational database gets us extraordinarily far.

I think it gets us all the way once you consider the ability to expose domain-specific functions to SQL that are serviced by your application code.

I've always been of the mindset that you can do anything with SQL if you are clever enough.
you can totally avoid c++. I've stuck to pure C (and better post c++) languages for 30 years
>Intelligence lets a guy with a moustache convince millions of people to invade Poland and kill all the Jews. Its not his liver or his kidneys, its his brain. Feel free to call this type of thing "charisma" but for the purposes of thinking about AI it still comes from the but doing the thinking.

Try to get people to do what you want as an intelligent aspie without charisma, and see how far this goes... even if you have 60+ IQ points over Hitler.

Also, Hitler was mostly redundant. He convinced people because they were ready to convinced - Germans would have gone to that one way or another... (they wouldn't have had killed the Jews - that was his obsession and "contribution", but the revenge for the WWI defeat and expansionism and WWII were brewing and inevitable in Germany, and the brand of fascism was also on the rise in places that felt they got the short end of the stick during colonialism, which is why similar movements rose in Japan and Italy and Spain and elsewhere, even before Hitler became a thing. Hitler just rode the currents to sell his particular brand of snake-oil).
Or calling them this time, immediately, and mentioning "belligerent parents" who "may be intoxicated". CPS starts up a file on you and now you have a lot of people looking into your house, kids, and family. Maybe the police see an easy arrest, or easy fines. Is it worth it to make a point here? Even at the potential cost of your or your family's freedom?

> All of this was being done before terms like service-oriented architecture existed.

I feel like the first time I heard the term was early 2000's, and wasn't it a mainframe thing first? Dunno, just wondering.

Anyhow, it's nicely written, very concise, and worth noting how the original author focuses more on "What kind of realistic options do we have?" than winning the A vs. B vs. C argument in one fell swoop.
You say "justify almost anything" but I've always been surprised by the lack of distribution of wealth as an answer to helping people.

No, exposing the data to our customers through Athena is the use case.

So performance matters in the sense that querying data is our core offer, but we're talking about multiple seconds here, not milliseconds.

I think the distinction makes sense then, thanks.
I used to love these. When OneNote first came out, it was everything I ever wanted and more.

I think the later versions got worse. Eventually I switched PCs and it had an error syncing my notebooks. There was a mix of local and cloud copies, randomly, and it worked like 3 separate accounts on the same ID that could never combine files.

I did a sync anyway and it just deleted a bunch of notebooks randomly, and one of them became corrupted so I lost a ton of data.

I just use text files in a folder now after apple notes had an update once a few years ago that snuck in a “you consent to irreversibly delete all old notes to use the new version” in small text on the “what’s new” pop up, as if that’s not a critical thing to double confirm.

Right in the middle of a similar sized European city, very built up, loads of traffic - the children have to walk to school, from aged 6. Parents are actually not allowed to take them in.
The local newspaper where I lived until this summer used software called “Lede AI Sports Desk” to automatically generate high school sports articles with headlines like "High School A edges High School B in snug affair 54-52" and "School C drums School D in sound fashion 48-4".

This is clearly not actually using any process that could be called "AI" with a straight face since it's obviously just playing madlibs with different sets of vocabulary based on the scores and margins, but the results were invariably stupid and repetitive headlines and articles.
This looks awesome.

I find the problem with visual programming is that often there is multiple representations or diagrams that would be useful to combine and render into a program.

* A box and line diagram with arrows is enough for representing event handlers and event dispatchers and message queues automatically.

* There's multiple approaches or methods to think of a computation: pipeline, communication, mathematic operations, projection. Each of these can be visualised.

* Behaviour composition - how do you combine behaviours together visually? Too many things on the screen and the underlying insight to the problem becomes hard to see or notice.

I'm working on a representation of code that is visual but it's not traditional.

I suffered from a kind of parasocial-thing. I still don't know what you'd call it. Some kind of parasocial meets maladaptive daydreaming issue.

I never went to therapy or anything, and I managed to fix it on my own but it was legit and hard to break. I imagine these kinds of things are getting more and more common these days...
And this is why you never, without any exception, make any sort of statement to police. It does not matter how friendly they appear, a police officer will NEVER be asking you questions for your own good. It's unfortunate we have a police force so corrupt and despicable that this needs to be our policy, but we do.
