Author here, I actually think so. The rendering of the virtual DOM as well as hooks are fairly interesting mathematical constructs. A pattern I use a lot in web applications is the state reducer, which is really a fold over events and state. Seeing the functional nature of it (and reactive programming in general) can make for quite composable react code, while it is easy to make either a verbose mess of propdrilling or do a lot of tricky context mixing.

> a unilateral mercy killing

I can't stop you from describing it that way, of course. But
that description presupposes that, always and everywhere, the potential person, i.e., the zygote/fetus, must be valued more highly than the actual, currently-living person in whose uterus the zygote/fetus is gestating.

You're free to believe that if you want — just as you're likewise free to believe (as an extreme example) that the human race would be better off if all important decisions were made by the British monarch, or white Christian males, or a council of imams, or the emperor of Russia, or the Chinese Communist Party, etc.

But you should expect major pushback if you insist that everyone else must defer to your belief — especially if, in their judgment, doing so would drastically degrade their lives.

Again: The least-bad option is: 1) to recognize that the pregnancy-continuation decision is often best made on a case by case basis and not with a one-size-fits-all rule; and 2) in most cases — certainly pre-viability, and in some cases, even post-viability — to entrust that decision to the mother and her doctor.
True. Siloed knowledge is a liability.

I would use Pulumi if I had to do it over again. I use the Pulumi Python SDK for some internal things at my work currently and it's so much better of a DX than fighting HCL all day.

We actually tried to adopt Terraform early in 2015 but we hit some of the nasty state bugs back in version .05 or .06 IIRC and we hosed one of our deployments and couldn't recover. That burned the Terraform bridge for us and we just used Ansible to automate everything.

You don't but in the animal kingdom most animals haven't evolved to be able to overcome their predator, they've just evolved to make it difficult enough for their predator to decided to look elsewhere for food. Make sure they know if they pick on you their going to have trouble and they'll go somewhere else.
Ask HN: Bookmarks for Hacker News?
I constantly find myself wishing there was a way to "save" or "star" posts on this website. Favorites and bookmarks are good and all, but it's just not the same, especially when you remember seeing something on HN, but don't remember the site name or exact title to find it easily.
Don't forget habits. Breakfast before leaving for work (even if you aren't hungry), lunch at noon, and dinner when you get home. And the 2:30 pm snacks. And the morning coffee loaded up with cream and sugar.

One thing that I found works for me is to adjust some of these habits. So even though breakfast is still done at the same time, I adjusted it to be only unsweetened steel-cut oatmeal (7 minutes in the electric pressure cooker). That gives me 180 calories, or I can add a cup of frozen fruit which brings it to 230 calories. If I find that it doesn't hold me over till lunch, I'll add a pat of butter (about 70 calories I believe).

For lunch, when at home I switched to having very specific items rotate through, each one chosen for the calorie count and how much it fills me up. If at the office, and if part of a group lunch where I'm not as selective, I may choose those days to skip dinner (or have a very light dinner).

My biggest habit to break was to cut out a snack before going to bed (don't eat anything after 7:00 pm). But instead switch to herbal tea, or if I wanted to munch on something grab some hot peppers (gives my mouth some entertainment without calories) or a carrot or two.
>The police were advised by the MP of the unusual email for security reasons, the police made their own decision, and later apologized

Right, but the MP almost certainly knew exactly what process he was kick starting by telling them to look into it. The beauty of the system is that everyone has plausible deniability.
I was. Was 5y in the company and thought about retiring there.

Then another company in a different market but building a similar product offered me 2x the salary, with a potential to 3-4x it very easily.

I couldn't say no. The work life balance took a bit of a hit in the beginning, it's been almost a year now, and I feel almost as comfortable as I did in my previous one. I don't regret leaving. I would likely go back to the previous one if they offered me 2x what I make now. :)
That's sort of my point. It's something I've noticed in articles in the past year or so. This ballet around sticking to their free market principles, while also distancing themselves from discussing the matter when it fails. Looking through older issues, I can spot a few where they've gone "we got it wrong, this is what position we will take this time". There's a distinct lack of ownership in recent ones.
I don't think buying delivery is any better model. It only really makes sense for high-margin items you produce inhouse.

This is an incredible couching of the last 9 months of cryptocurrency market behavior. Does anybody actually operate on their belief that "geopolitical factors," rather than astonishing amounts of fraud, are responsible for the current downturn?
This whole write-up comes off as ridiculous. Complaining that a company wants redundancy... they all do. Expecting that you carve out an area where you give yourself tremendous leverage at the detriment of the company is just foolish. And I don't buy the common "frat bro" culture accusation (which these days just means any young male with a hint of a personality).

Back when StackOverflow had job listings, they also had an optional Joel Score (https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2000/08/09/the-joel-test-12-s...) that employers could fill out.

Too bad that's dead. But would be great to generalize and standardize across companies and industries. It'll never happen, but that's what you're looking for.
This is not just disgusting and infuriating, but also simply stupid and bad management style.

If course you should always strive to reduce the bus factor. But I don't see any reason to not turn such an experienced, and good at their job, employee into a formal leadership/mentorship/consultant role.

Seriously, SpaceX, you can build rockets, but you can't make such obvious management decisions? What the eff?
Many nations are being sued for not living up to their responisibilities in regard to climate change, so yes.
Certainly, redundancy and spreading of responsibilities is a reasonable way to run important divisions like this.

They way SpaceX went about this as outlined in TFA is absolutely not the way to do it. This guy had no input in the process at all, even from the outset or the hiring, and they didn't even report to him!
This is a very vague accusation of "age discrimination" with basically nothing backing it up.

Someone who was supposed to be in a senior position didn't know how to delegate and felt threatened when it happened. He decided to see things through a lens of "age discrimination" instead of contributing anything useful. Drama instead of work. Unsurprisingly, he is no longer employed at the company.

It isn't to say age discrimination isn't a problem everywhere. It is. But this looks like a disgruntled employee story.
But you can't have as many bits in a UID date as for a generic cookie, and a privacy protecting client could just ignore the ones that don't make sense. Does a 1978 date make sense? Probably not. You could scale this up to the millions, probably, but it won't scale infinitely.
Many clients may have visited only one time, but when you reach higher numbers they may be used together with other data to help identify users.

Complaining to your MP about toxic conditions in local waterways is "unusual"? That's exactly the type of correspondence an MP should expect. Referring such correspondence to the police is ridiculous.

The MP should have told the women the town hall was closed to non-residents and left it at that. The cynic in me believes the MP knew exactly what the police were going to do when forwarded "unusual" emails.
Is removing rejects not a way to pick only the best?

It is not, unless your rejection criteria is "everything that is not the best." However, if your rejection criteria is "not meeting basic requirements" then you are left with the best, and the second best and the middle, all the way down to the bottom of adequate.
The FBI suits interviewed myself and all my colleagues independently. It felt like an interrogation, like I was the accused. They even made me sign a form, basically giving them the right to investigate me. Oh, and they also told us not to talk to anyone about, well, anything. So yeah, these guys knew what they were doing, and it felt like they were aware this whole thing might be some sort of setup.

But yeah, I definitely get your point. I actually have a friend that works for CPS, and she said bitter ex's call in bogus claims all the time. There's a protocol she's required to follow, and that protocol doesn't involve investigating if the claim is false, even if it's totally obvious that it is. And the worst part is, even if the claim is obviously fake (like, the accused moved to Florida 6 months ago with his new girlfriend; he hasn't seen his kid in months, how could he leave recent bruises on her?), there's no consequences to the accuser. Nothing. She's not allowed to do anything, just close the investigation and move on. That's it.

Continuing on the topic of CPS, she once told me that they work very closely with the local cops. Also, CPS doesn't need warrants or court approval to enter a home. If they get an accusation of child abuse, they have the right to enter and investigate, and they use the local cops to assist them. Well, the local cops know this, and they use it to get around warrants and such. She said when the cops want to get access to someone's house, but they don't have enough for a warrant or the whole case is shady (like, they just wanna harass someone), they have an anonymous idiot on the street call in a bogus child abuse claim to an address, then they call their contact at CPS and work out a date/time to enter, based on the abuse claim they initiated (through their anonymous idiot). Once the cops are inside, they can pretty much do whatever they want. She's been on "investigations" where she was told to wait in her car, meaning she had to be there as a formality, but that's it. She said CPS knows what's going on, but they can't/won't do anything about it, because they need the support of local cops for their own, legitimate investigations.
I used to feel the same way, but I don't think the idea is to abandon all your values in pursuit of success. Instead it's to figure out the system you're entering into and how to operate within it, what values of your may have to change or at least be suspended, and what new values you might have to adopt to function. You have to figure out the motivations that move the organization forward, what shadow power structures exist (because trust me, they do), and how to accomplish your job within the political and interpersonal "game" that's already in motion by the time you join. And from someone who has worked in orgs as small as 5 people up to Apple's 80k+ behemoth, one has to do this no matter the organization size.

Of course, if doing so requires you to abandon some of your core values, then perhaps that organization or job isn't a good fit for you anyhow. :)
I think you need both dense market and low cost of labour. Dense cities are not enough alone if there isn't cheap labour also available at same time.

To me it's not so much a question of what's the best / recommended (for new languages) / most used encoding. It's rather the observation that there are so many popular languages operating on Unicode Code Points, not Unicode Scalar Values, and Wasm said it wants to support these (as) well, incl. integration with JS/Web APIs which already share their semantics. And for all of these, the restriction is unnecessary and trivially avoidable by allowing them to pass strings to each other, or from/to JavaScript, without errors or mutation, while not changing anything for those preferring UTF-8. Looking at this the other way around might be valuable as well: What if one would design a Component Model for any of the affected languages? There, introducing an unnecessary discontinuity would be a design mistake I'd argue.
Between an hour and an hour and a half, yeah. It's only 15 miles, traffic is fucked.
Using a special little carveout theoretically satisfies two groups of people:

1) Those who won't engage with material if it's sexist

2) Those who think other people are stupid for not engaging with material if it's sexist

As an example, I could write:

> Because the book is very cringey at times and full of itself.

I've said this before, and the response was multiple times "who cares about that, what about how sexist it is? Can you believe how the female characters are written?" And then the topic of conversation is about the sexism of the author (and whether or not I can reliably identify sexism) instead of the content of the book, which is what I wanted to talk about.

I could also write:

> Because the book is very cringey at times, full of itself, and quite sexist

But then the response is either "why are you recommending it if it's sexist?" or "no it's not sexist, why would you say that?" And then the topic of conversation is again about the sexism in the book instead of the content of the book.

When things like HPMoR come up, the conversation trends towards the more controversial parts of it and less about the useful parts. I thought that using "for those who care" was enough of a lead-in to prove that I both (a) understand that the book is sexist and (b) understand that one doesn't have to ignore all of the content of a work just because it's sexist, but... apparently not.

I've always known that you run vanilla PostgREST, and that it evaluates RLS in-pg, and it all works great. However when I first looked at walrus[0] a while back (18 months ago?), I couldn't quite figure out what the mechanism of action was, i.e. whether the RLS rules were being evaluated in the database or being parsed in from the DDL and then (partially?) reinterpreted by your WAL subscriber. I hope that explains my comment.

I've had another brief look at that repo, and either you've clarified a few things since I last looked at it, or I didn't look at it closely enough in the first place. It makes far more sense to me now, the impersonation + re-query mechanism puts me at 100%.

Thanks for the response, I appreciate it.

Its not a false dichotomy because, so far, no one has argued against my argument that landmines can increase the cost of war and therefore help avoid it. The argument has been implicitly accepted.

Attack the argument, reject it, and then argue for the third way. Or argue that war is a blast.

However, Ill accept no citations from a US general or RAND corp. Itd be the "appeal to authority" fallacy and they've lost too many wars to claim expertise. You're free to restate their arguments though.

I don't know the answer but I'd expect the company needs to value it sufficiently to make it more valuable for them to spend the time doing proper technical writing than not. Usually this is not the case.

It's also an easy cop out to tell your manager when the discussion comes, "oh I want to improve my technical writing", "oh I want to improve my presentation skills". Ultimately, if the company is not encouraging that you're better off learning by yourself as an engineer.

I would definitely you to give a shot at compiling Oilshell to x32.

It definitely _is_ a pain to compile for it.

x32 ABI is not switched on by default on any distro that I'm aware, so you would need to recompile your kernel to get support for it. I think the poor support for it probably is because almost no one is using it. There was even a kernel thread discussing removing support for it.

So, from the point of view of distributing it to end users, x32 ABI is pretty much dead end (for now, *until distros start turning on the flag for it on, for their standard default distribution kernels).

But I would definitely be interested in your results. Most likely, you should see a smaller footprint + a speed boost.

I too don't understand it. Even reading just his side of the story it seems obvious that he got caught in a power struggle between SpaceX and Starlink. A struggle he lost and apparently a struggle he never knew he was in.

I also don't think he has the right attitude for a principle engineer. Junior engineers don't "take over" your roles. They take on the easy parts of projects so that you can focus on the hard stuff. Part of being a senior engineer is training and enabling more junior engineers. A huge part of his job is to eliminate the "bus factor".
> you enjoy everything just because it can happen

I cannot enjoy the suffering of my children or the torture and murder of the innocent because "they can happen" which I'd be required to do in this so called "enlightenment." What you're describing is pure selfishness and taking pleasure in evil. That's horrific.

> Your happiness does not depend on anything external so you enjoy things as they come, but don't attach yourself and your wellbeing to an ever changing external world.

Which is total detachment from other people too and their needs and for making the external world better since any attempt to do so would be admitting that things in the external world can really be bad. That's not a recipe for happiness, it's a recipe for total loneliness and, if seriously adopted by enough people, societal collapse. We're a social species, demonstrably. Buddhism as you describe it appears to be a rejection of the real evils in the world, passions, charity, and society.

> Enlightenment is an absolute bliss filled experience, not a state of numbness.

"Bliss" built on the enjoyment of evil is infinitely worse than mere numbness.
Everyone assumes cloud == multi-tenant, but single-tenant cloud has a lot of benefits and is becoming more common: GitLab Dedicated is single-tenant, GitHub is prioritizing and rebuilding "GitHub AE" (their single-tenant cloud offering), and Sourcegraph (of which I am a cofounder) Cloud is single-tenant[1].

For self-hosted products, offering a single-tenant cloud product is much easier than multi-tenant because single-tenant cloud "just" requires automating and managing infrastructure, not completely changing the core application to support multi-tenancy. This also means nobody should be worried about self-hosted being deprecated in favor of a single-tenant cloud product; companies generally find it easy to keep both.

Single-tenant cloud is also a lot more appealing to large customers because the security is (arguably) fundamentally better and scalability is easier to prove (you can just point to scalability on a self-hosted instance, which has the same scaling characteristics).

Expect to see more single-tenant cloud offerings come out for dev tools, especially those that have a big self-hosted offering (like GitLab, GitHub, and Sourcegraph).

From what the article describes, a senior engineer singlehandedly managed a significant part of operations, and after he had encountered medical problems, his duties were partially dispersed to several younger engineers. This seems like a sensible move to decrease the bus factor.
I'm maybe cynical but, as I see it, the final result was written right at the start, they only recruited this personn to acquire their knowledge, not finding someone younger at first. I would be ashamed to be involved in this kind of thing, this is despicable.
Maybe they have employees who are not on LinkedIn.
