After about day two, ChatGPT didn't produce anything useful anymore iirc; at least when asked to write the solution in Haskell.

Interestingly, it still produced internally consistent solutions with valid Haskell code, they just didn't have much to do with the given problem. And I feel like that sums up one of the main issues with ChatGPT quite well: if you scrolled through StackOverflow and saw a really polished solution for something, you'd assume it was mostly correct, because for people, 'visible effort' put into code usually correlates with correctness/ourselves. But ChatGPT always produces really polished solutions really confidently, even if they are complete nonsense.

> I suspect the majority are not in them who elect to live in such areas.

I suspect the contrary. People seem very keen to stick around family and friends, and tend to prefer to not make major changes. Whenever I suggest such an option (move countries, not necessarily continents), people always seem dismissive. However, I expect this to be somewhat local / culture-based.

The issue is that these areas are usually the big cities where people will tend to flock for the jobs. Sure, their small towns might be quiet, but there's no work there, especially if you want a more "intellectual" kind of job. I'm curious how this will change with the rise of work from home, though. I know many people who've moved out of Paris to random tiny towns thanks to this. So, moves are being made. But crime has been increasing in smaller towns, too...

> I'd imagine with a European passport you have access to many countries with low crime rate areas with little effort, no?

I honestly don't know which countries those would be. Especially since they shouldn't be on a path such that, a year or two down the line, they'd resemble my current country, France, which mostly excludes the rest of the EU.

As regards the passport, it should allow me to move there for an indefinite amount of time, and ideally allow me to work from there. Mostly, an EU passport allows me to visit many places, but not settle (I don't qualify for the "rich people" visas).

At the very least we should consider ERC-20 tokens a separate class of crypto currency. The barrier to entry to mint a spanking new ERC-20 token is absurdly low and all you're doing is piggy backing on the Ethereum infrastructure.

This is a funny article.

Others have mentioned that it's a little murky if the author is critical specifically of balloon framing or of stick built construction in general.

The irony is that balloon framing is more feasible today than ever. Balloon framing downsides:

1. Really long dimensional lumber

2. Fire risk of continuous cavities

3. Ledger/joist connection to balloon studs

The solutions?:

1. Engineered lumber. Dead straight and incredibly strong LSL (laminated strand lumber) and LVL (laminated veneer lumber) come in basically whatever length you reasonably need them.

2. Fire blocking is well understood. Insulation materials like mineral wool can further drive fire risk inside a stud cavity to near zero.

3. An innumerable number of well engineered and reasonably priced structural fasteners and metal connectors with well understood properties make it straight forward to build a second story floor off of balloon framed studs.

2022 is a great time to be balloon framing. In fact, you'll see it in large great rooms for floor to vaulted ceiling walls. Some framers who like to preassemble as much as possible on the ground and then lift the wall for efficiency and safety will balloon frame as well.

I think it takes a lot more than a language, no matter how efficient to get top 10 in AoC - its more about being able to parse the problem exceptionally quickly, or rather recognise practically from memory the class of problem that the day is asking for and be halfway through coding it before you have even finalised the specifics.

I managed to get 47th on one of the days once... and that was after solving it in under a minute.
It would be really nice if it was like that, and I guess they also hoped that they would get such a result "unexpectedly."

Agreed. I don’t mind dynamic typing at all, particularly when facilities exist to establish contracts around what the data you’re passing around looks like. But I don’t think this is a brilliant solution to Python’s problems. Python has issues, don’t get me wrong, but it’s a very very mature language without a lot of WTF moments. On the flip side, a brand new language with this level of freedom means you really need to sit down and grok everything from the inventors perspective before you can be proficient. You need to absorb the entire language for it to work. Meanwhile, and I’m hesitant to beat this drum, a lisp like Clojure is not at all confusing or unclear. The syntax might be hard to grok initially, and the short function names or departure to literal functional programming might throw you off, but after that you realize the air is crisp. The language and stdlib are small and relatively old for a reason - the ecosystem fosters this. You can do and build anything without fuss. It’s wonderful.

I feel that the bigger problem is that the demographic bomb has finally hit more developed countries beyond Canada. Unlike either the US or Canada, Europe just isn’t very used to immigration yet. The EU is nearly as good at assimilation compare to the US because they’re still relatively new to the game, which exacerbates the problems associated with immigration. Of course countries in Asia, like Japan and South Korea, are even worse than the EU when it comes to assimilation

IME, that should, at best, be a very tentative assumption for StackOverflow.

Heck, for me it is also a very tentative assumption when I see a very polished solution in official documentation from lots of providers (AWS, I’m looking at you.) Though in that case I assume it was correct at some point in time, for some (possibly not publicly released) version of the software/service.

Mars lost its hydrogen the same way, because its core froze enough to kill its magnetic field. There is more than one way to go.

Venus is in a bad way.
This is really nice, just wanted to add to your list that you can extend SQLite in python with peewee orm: https://docs.peewee-orm.com/en/latest/peewee/sqlite_ext.html...

I recently used clickhouse-local to do some log analysis on a lot of elastic load balancer logs (~10s of GBs) and it was spectacular.

In short, you can add clickhouse-local to a shell pipeline and then run SQL queries on the data. An example from the docs:

$ ps aux | tail -n +2 | awk '{ printf("%s\t%s\n", $1, $4) }'
| clickhouse-local --structure "user String, mem Float64"
--query "SELECT user, round(sum(mem), 2) as memTotal
FROM table GROUP BY user ORDER BY memTotal DESC FORMAT Pretty"
It doesn't matter, since they all only handle a limited subset of the new TLDs you'll end up having to use one you don't like anyway.

Unless you can come up with a best list for each TLD.

> and I'm only relying on an internet service provider

From a broader perspective of structuring our society so that censorship is technically difficult, we don't want to rely on a single provider. In that sense, we want both

* ISP should allow hosting from home that is fast.

* an ecosystem of website hosting providers, so ISPs are not a single point of censorship.

read X Y

"Read the stdin into X and Y. I'm honestly not sure why read Y here as it's unset and re-defined on the next line?"

You can drop the Y but then if you unintentionally have anything after the URL on stdin the script will break.

unset Y;Y=${X##*/};

"Unset Y, use Parameter expansion to match the regex "/" greedy and delete it from the string, assign it to Y. Also I believe that using "" here is a "bashism" so it would not work on a strict posix shell :)"

There is no regex. This is globbing. It is a shell feature sometimes called "Parameter Expansion". This will delete everything up to "/".

I am not a bash user. I use NetBSD ash as both the interactive and scripting shell.

|curl -4sK- \

"Connect over ipv4 (-4), don't output (-s, silent) and read the config from stdin (-K-). Apparently curl support reading what to fetch from a config file, I was not aware that curl supported that"

I only use curl in HN examples. I do not use it otherwise, so the -K- option is just a stupid hack to make curl behave more like the programs I actually use: yy025, nc and so on.

|sed -n 's/u0026/\&/g;s/.*\"application\/pdf\",\"uri\":\"//;s/\".*//;s/https:/url=&/p' \

"Several substitutions, and don't echo the output automatically (-n). Replace "u0026" with "&" (u0026 is the unicode number of ampersand - not sure why but docdroid use that in their page), all occurrences. Select the line that matches '."application/pdf","uri":"' Match "https:" and prepend it with "url=", and print it"

This does not select the line that matches the pattern, it deletes everything up to that pattern in all* lines of the input. It then deletes everything after double quotes from all lines of the input.

Yes, I escaped the forward slashes. That adds some characters. Sometimes when dealing with URLs as input I will use a character that is not permitted in URLs as a separator, such as "<" or ">". As a matter of course, I do not use "#" as a separator because, for me, it makes inline sed comments prefixed with "#" more difficult to distinguish. I also superfluously escaped the double quotes out of habit. No need in this case.
I've thought about the same with regard to drawing (and previously with programming). While I agree that it's a tad bit disheartening to know that things better than what you are currently capable of are one search away, I like to consider the fact that prior to the internet those still existed and it was still somewhat easy to come across better photography by simply going to a library. Yet there wasn't such an easy way to get anyone outside of your own circle to acknowledge your work until you were already very good.

Thus you kind of do have to find at least enough fulfillment in the process of creation and of self-improvement to keep at the grind. Some amount of existential dread of that sort is also just part of the grind of any creative pursuit.

At the same time though, it also helps to keep some perspective and step back for some time if it becomes too consuming. I let this sort of dread get too far for programming, which had me shirking all other important things in life (family, food, sleep, work) just to keep coding. Once I stepped back from it I got a lot less stressed, managed to find other aspects of my skills I needed to work on and also managed to find a place to apply myself to which is sufficiently fulfilling.

Still, if I can stick my finger in a hot drink for more than a second, then it's too cool for me.

"Nuclear stockpile research" is only making weapons "better" in the sense that they are reliable despite not having been tested in decades. There's probably a component of "unemployed nuclear weapons designers is a bad thing" also.

The fusion for power experiments are using the same laser equipment but different targets and sensors.
The USA no longer has the technical capability to manufacture the necessary parts to maintain the current stockpile. The whole strategic arms reduction treaty regime is basically a fig leaf to cover for the fact that we have to cannibalize some legacy weapons to maintain the rest. If nothing changes the USA probably won't have an effective arsenal within a century. Given the likely state of the USA by that time, that's probably for the best.
