3.0 isn't swing.

3.0 is a time-traveling swing band stuck in 17th century France, forced to play courtly music at Versailles until Lully agrees to smuggle them out an underground passageway in exchange for a copy of that smoking hot basso continuo part

In conclusion, 3.0 is my favorite because it reminds me of that old timey Versailles swing

Most people are in the "home view" which is algorithm based. I've heard reports of twitter switching people back to the "home view" randomly without them doing anything. This has never happened to me, it's never switched to "home" without me doing it explicitly, so who knows what actually happens. I'm always in the timeline view, which only shows tweets and retweets from people I follow.
> Disc brakes are too powerful IMO, and thus dangerous.

Not true at all. People learn to modulate instinctively in a matter of seconds when switching from different bikes/brake systems.

Besides deoending on pad compound and rim material many v-brakes are very brutal with a low curve between doing nothing and grabbing hard compared to cantilevers and road calipers, so it not only about disc vs rim brake systems.

I worked a much worse factory job for years. I don't blame people for not wanting such a thing, but sometimes it isn't all about pay, either. You couldn't pay me to go back to my old job.

Great writeup. Truly it is difficult to avoid Nihilism and cynicism. You've put a lot of work into Adama, do you feel it has gotten proper use by others? I'll try to figure out what to build and who I want to help.

Also you mentioned shrooms, they've gotten a lot of attention recently so I've also tried. One of the best experiences of my life for sure, but I can't say it gave me any deep, lasting revelations.

CLion isn't the best comparison here, as there are some architectural differences between CLion and the other IDES (IntelliJ, PyCharm, WebStorm, etc), which is the reason there isn't a C/C++ plugin for IntelliJ.
so long as you’re not catching the exception and figuring out how to continue execution of the same function i think you have a good use case here. it’s no different than `assert`ing invariants at the top of a function, for example. if invariant is violated, the call should be aborted.

I have noticed this, too, in numerous different cities and towns throughout Canada, over the same time period that you mention.

This approach hasn't been good for anyone involved.

The employees typically seem quite miserable, as would be expected given their circumstances.

Economically, this approach also significantly increases demand for supply-constrained housing, health care, infrastructure, and goods. This in turn exacerbates Canada's current inflation problem, and it's made worse by these imported workers not offering any real (in the economic sense) productivity gains to help offset the increased demand.

The combination of these factors, plus cultural differences, seems to have resulted in a steep decline in the customer experience at such establishments over that period of time, too.

I now spend a small fraction of what I used to at such businesses because the experience is typically poor, at least relative to what it was in the past. I know others who have changed their spending habits, too, for the same reason.

> My comment above didn’t even mention randomization. That’s not necessary. All that’s necessary is that the tests be independent.

But they are obviously not independent.

This is like flipping a coin once, looking at the result 20 times in a row (without flipping it again), concluding you have magic luck powers since you got heads twenty times in a row, and that would be really unusual in the analgous system where you flipped a coin 20 times instead of just looking at it.

> Randomization is one way to achieve that but not a hard requirement.

This is besides the point, but pray tell. How do you reduce the probability of an algorithm being incorrectly programmed by means of running it multiple times without changing the input or introducing some randomness somewhere? I don't think that's possible. Really the ZKP case isn't even checking the algorithm but checking a specific user input is consistent.

I think this would be equivalent to denying that BPP without coin flips is P, which afaik it is.

> Even so, it seems you do see the connection, you just dispute one element that you think is critical.

I mean, i guess you could say that if you modify the system to add the connection you are trying to establish, then yes the connection becomes obvious.
Rust do still has exceptions, they're just called "results". You can't really have values as exceptions unless you plug a lot of ad-hoc constructs into your language so that they eventually become similar to exceptions [1]:

> Add syntactic sugar for working with the Result type which models common exception handling constructs.

The whole error handling story with Rust can be summarized as "we have results but want to have exceptions".

In see no difference. Except for the fact that you don't have the stacktrace (in Go), and unroll the Stack manually. In any case, there'll be a generic catch (whatever you call it) on the top level of your daemon to recover from the failed request and handle the next.

It depends on the road, of ones flexibility more than the actual power level.

I used to ride as an elite racer 20y ago, I don't ride much these days, only twice a week and mostly shorts sub 3h, rides. My power is not higher than the average dude on the bike riding several times a week. Yet I am still comfy on a racing bike because I didn't lost that flexibility. I actually feel worse when my handlebar is too high and I can't stretch my back horizontally. I uusally don't fit well on what they call endurance bikes.

You can't have a shortage of underpayable workers, since a shortage means that quantity supplied is less than quantity demanded at every possible price point.

Yeah trivialize away ruining many artists livelihoods with this bullshit. But what did I expect from HN bros.
I'm split on this. On one hand I want to run an instance with freedom, and I want users to resolve conflicts amongst themselves, and using the mute button if push come to shove.

But on the other hand, if I allow that, other servers will de-federate from me.

So these last few months I've been put into a lot of hard moderating situations. Where for example an entire instance reports a user on my instance, saying it's spreading hate speech, or transphobia, but it's not. The user just happened to use an aggressive tone in a thread with a famous person, for example, or just piss off the wrong admin.

And now I have to make a decision on how to handle this user, who didn't break any of my server rules.

And I even ran into a straight up racist on my instance, but didn't suspend their account because while they were clearly a supporter of the right-wing party, that same right-wing party has a majority vote. So why should I suspend them for voicing their political affiliation? Again, not breaking any rules, not breaking any laws, just voicing opinions in line with the current right-wing majority party.

I just don't believe in sweeping people under the rug. In that case, of the right-wing person, they ended up getting muted by other instances, fortunately not de-federated.

But it feels like I'm always balancing on a knife's edge between free speech and a de-federated instance.

Basically, I feel myself becoming a "language-police", and that's not what I want.

At least for Go (haven't used Rust), I entirely disagree. After ~3 years of professional programming with the language, `if err != nil` is still constantly annoying me when writing code, but especially and most importantly, when reviewing code.

Not to mention, Go has proven conclusively to me that exceptions are exactly the right pattern for error propagation - the 99.9% pattern is "function returns error with message; callers add context; top-level caller aborts and logs + returns message to user, or sometimes retries". This is exactly how exceptions work out of the box, without the need to pollute all code between the error source and the top-level caller.

If anything, I'd like to see a language seeking to add smarter information to exception stack traces - not just the function + code line, but also some information about local variables might be doable, and would supplant the one occasional gap between Go-style hand-built context and Java/Python auto-generated exceptions.
It's almost impossible (for any of us) to do an apples-to-apples comparison, because there are a huge number of non-frame-material variables: tires, wheels, bars, seatpost, fork, geometry, etc. etc. Some of these factors (e.g. tires) make a far greater difference than frame material. Even if you could isolate the frame material, different materials can be tuned in different ways for different purposes. I therefore don't think it's worth focusing much on the "feel" of different frame materials.
Here's another link about the problems with C++ exception that I find very insightful
https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2022/p25...

The major issue that stood out to me is that in a multi-threaded environment, exception unwinding is effectively single-threaded. This means that if you have C++ code that throws a lot of exceptions, you are going to see a lot of threads getting blocked by lock contention

> Along with 24FPS.

24FPS is gonna stick around for a while. I've not seen any high framerate movies that didn't make the movie set look like a...movie set. This is great for sports and documentaries where a better visualization of the subject is always better, but in movies it just makes everything look like it was manufactured as quickly and as cheaply as humanly possible--because it was. I feel like high framerate, even more than 4k, lets you "see" the set and the makeup and the props as a hastily crafted illusion. Everything looks fake. Even the body language looks like acting in high framerate.

Meanwhile, in sports and documentaries everything looks more real, because it is real; there's no set, no props, no act--well less acting. More acting in soccer.

I'm sure at some point in the future set designers and the props departments and all that will figure out how to make 48FPS and above look good, but we don't live in that future yet.

The "selectopia" example is kind of how it already does work, or at least how it used to, in computer programming, where having an impressive Github account can help one get hired. But it has downsides:

- People who want to get hired put low quality projects on their Github which are optimized to look impressive at a first glance.

- People spam popular open source projects with low quality pull requests to buff their Github contribution metrics.

- People who don't have the time to create software for free are put at a disadvantage. Also people who aren't passionate about programming enough to have side projects are at a disadvantage (not necessarily bad).

I also suspect that this phenomenon is what motivates the development of a lot of the "leftpad" or "is-even" type libraries. Which could be interpreted as either good or bad.

Small instance here. One user (me) hade a few mostly technical posts about a bitcoin lightning network client they were developing on, and reposted some content along similar lines. From the perspective of software, among contributors and operators. We're now defederated by at least a few instances for "crypto grifters" or similar. We won't be bothered to investigate and follow up to see if/how it's propagated until one of our users raise an issue about it.

Much of the active fediverse have had quite particular culture with very narrow corridors around some things, of all varieties. Some of these groups (in lack of better word) demonize each other. Those who take up running open general instances for years with no financial incentive are sometimes also of a particular kind within that.

Some are also intentionally insular ("safe spaces" come to mind) and will mute or defederate anyone identified as not part of their in-group.

I've also seen instances blanket-blocking anything Pleroma, because "all the bad people come from Pleroma". I've even seen it called evil software because it affords more customization of filtering, rewriting, and federation.

If the fediverse does get traction over time and the demography widens, I think we'll have much fracturing, possibly pushing protocol changes and incompatible forks.

Exceptions work well for 2 kinds of error handling: crash and log, and general retry and log.

The second one is more cumbersome with return values if the possible errors originate deep in the stack.

Beyond a simple retry, Exceptions are not specific enough for handling errors.

How to issue a central bank digital currency (2021)
umm the example is contrived, and the title is overly broad. performance-sensitive code has exceptional situations that can either be handled, or should cause the program to abort. performance-sensitive code use libraries that throw exceptions too. or the recommendation here will be to use non-exception-throwing libraries only in performance-sensitive code? that significantly reduces what libraries i can use in my code. my interpretation of the essay is: where possible prefer is/else to try/catch. branching on if/else is easy and inexpensive. try/catch could be expensive if (1) new exception instance is created every time, (2) stack/backtrace is generated. you really want to avoid (2) when all you need from the exception is the information that the abnormal happened. if you can use a singleton exception, you may be able to use try/catch. then you can make the beauty (of the code) judgement later.

Default values and named parameters, thank you! Golang has neglected both of these. Both seemingly rare yet highly productive features to be found in a compiled language.

Love the quick compile times and go-like single binary compilation.

Case-insensitivity seems very cool for interoperability. Total underappreciated gem.

My only hangup is the syntax feels wordy, but it's leagues better compared to Rust or Go in that regard. A bit concerned about the performance cost of using macros to cut down on the wordiness (I would do this).

Otherwise great to see a 2.0 and always keeping a close eye on the Nim ecosystem as I would definitely consider adopting it.
To add to this, there's joke from knitters about "tink-ing" which happens a ton. it's just the reverse of knit. I've watched my SO rip out HALF a sweater torso which is hours and hours. She also crocheted full body lace for over her wedding dress, she made it 80% of the way and ran out of yarn and couldn't get a color match so had to start over. It was almost a full month of crocheting all told. But that's how you get quality, be willing to rip it all out, it's a thing that doesn't happen with source control and code anywhere near as much.
She got 11 years of which she'll have to serve at least around 9 because it's federal, and that was for something that probably wasn't fraudulent from the very beginning. So, seems like they... won't be okay.
