In terms of legal account documents - No one does physical paper as system of record anymore (it's all digitized), so survival of the documentation would rely solely on institution-specific IT policies.

If your bank hides tapes in mountains, most critical legal documents are probably going to survive. Not sure what regulations say about requirements here.

The general ledger as well as ledgers for all customer accounts are less likely to survive. Many days of transactions would be lost in the best case (e.g. PDC+DR nuked and most recent offsite is "only" 12 days old as of the attack).

Since when has the internet not been channelized?

Gopher was channelized.
IRC was channelized.
Usenet was channelized.
Early websites even tried to channelize via webrings and blogrolls.

The entire "search" thing sans channels is a fairly new phenomenon.
rest(ful) cargo cult

Good luck trying to propose any kind of API that violates the blurry image others devs and architects have of rest(ful) APIs.

No one got ever fired for going for a rest(ful) API.
Who said SOAP is bad? SOAP is good. bugs.debian.org provides SOAP API, and it just works. I imagine maybe SOAP was bad when libraries and tools were immature.
You still have collectors? In my, not especially large town, we’ve had the robot hydraulic arm things for almost a decade.

I can remember 20 years ago they not only coll cred by hand but for not that much extra per month they’d even walk back and pull them down.
It could be much worse, they could develop emacs instead of vim
Selling the inherent slowness of a transfer method as an anti fraud feature is just absurd.

If a delay is beneficial it can be introduced artificially for those who want/need it

For instance, my bank limits the total daily transfer, with any changes to that amount taking time to take effect.

> For sure, market studies, focus groups,etc... look at windows 7 for example, fixed a lot of complaints users had about vista

That's true. Now look at 8, 10, and 11 and tell me with a straight face that they still care.

> Do you know why MS is bloated and "slower"? Because of all the technology they support from decades ago and all the interpperability layers in between.

Then surely the comparison is RHEL, where companies pay for compatibility and stability, not "we <3 bleeding edge" Fedora or "volunteers maintaining a coherent system" Debian.
Funnily enough some german banks are experimenting with something called a "banking bus".

But for example a big stumbling block was the scientific programming community, from which I also stem. There were no major syntactical reasons there and yet people were up in arms, for the reasons I describe above.

Most people I know migrated only when python2 literally wouldnt work for them anymore, like they needed a feature of a library only released for python3.

Whether it's "a small price to pay" depends on each and every individual that paid the price.

I don't think it makes any sense for 1 single person to decide if the price paid was small, simply because they don't know what actual price was paid (in terms of suffering).

Also, it sounds to me that's you're assuming that's a necessitated price to pay, which I don't believe is true (but I don't have any examples either).
If this was a frequent event then yes that would be an issue. But Python 3 released in 2008, more than 14 years ago now, and since then there have been no sign of such a new big change. While the core developers briefly talked about making Python 3.10 into 4.0 that was scrapped, and currently the plan is just to continue with Python 3.x "forever".

You are arguing against strawman. I'm telling you that there is willingness to accept as high risk as it is necessary. Not that we should be aiming at sending suicide squads to Mars.

> for which there is plenty of research that can be done on Earth (and in LEO).

Everybody is welcomed to do the research on Earth. And Starship will make LEO based research some 100x cheaper.

$100B for ISS vs. ~$1B for Starship in a pessimistic scenario. ISS and Starship have similar usable internal volume.

> Let's also see it actually successfully do orbital refueling, which would be a prerequisite for even getting to the moon with the proposed design, not to mention Mars.

Exactly. Working hardware silences detractors better than anything.

SpaceX won that contract including all the legal challenges a bit over a year ago. Give them some time.

> Let's see it fly and let's see the total budget before such hopeful conclusions.

It's a fixed cost contract, not cost+ like SLS which BTW costs NASA 4 billions per launch all things considered according to their own estimates.

... on your geo: in the US credit/debit terms used like that often refer to the network it'll travel over. As others have noted the rails don't impact the consumer protection you receive. Outside the US things credit/debit don't have this overloaded meaning.
... on who's asking: sometimes the retailer wants or has to offer you a choice of networks. Sometimes your multi-app chip card is asking you to choose which app to use.
Perhaps because like everything that appears simple it’s complicated.
Having a large number of new dwelling requires an infrastructure to support the people. The growth in housing rate needs to match the rate of infra growth

A large influx of properties will affect the property market which will affect the industries that affect the housing industry and the consumer confidence and wipe out retirement funds

With all due respect and not in anyway being rude, Is this fundamentally different from Saying let’s print more money and give it away to people (directly or indirectly)
A part time tech job that paid 150k per year seems dreamy. Is this a real thing? If so, where do I look? What if I'm not risk averse, do contracting gigs that net 150k a year exist? Are they attainable to jr devs?
It was, from the wikipedia:

> On May 23, 2014, Apple, Google, Intel, Adobe agreed to settle for $324.5 million.

> ..

> In June 2014, Judge Lucy Koh expressed concern that the settlement may not be a good one for the plaintiffs. Michael Devine, one of the plaintiffs, said the settlement is unjust. In a letter he wrote to the judge he said the settlement represents only one-tenth of the $3 billion in compensation the 64,000 workers could have made if the defendants had not colluded.

> (EDIT: to my knowledge) the first major language with this approach was ECMAScript 2009 (5th ed.) with `use strict` and Python 3 predated it.

https://docs.python.org/3/library/__future__.html

That only works with “syntactic” updates, not with deep semantics changes.

Those are why the core team pulled the trigger on an overhaul update. And they were by far the biggest issues during migration, anything which would be gated behind an edition or opt-in was easy.
> The most impressive part is the creator gets to have a probably comfortable living from a channel that grew organically and still 100% depends on youtube’s algorithm.

That's scary. After all this time and effort, the creator is totally dependent on YouTube's whims. If the platform chooses to stop promoting his videos, the earnings will drop to nearly 0. And the creator has no recourse.

It's an insane imbalance of power.
To some extent, it may be the messaging, not the amount. The limit being in place is labeling those creators as "value-less" (vs others, who do have value).

In theory, I see it much like the idea that putting a price of $0.01 on something makes it "appear" much more valuable to people than making it free in the first place. It's not about the actual amount, just the messaging of "this has value" vs "this has no value".
CORS is not a magic blocking mechanism.

The same origin policy restricts any load that would provide JS with data from a different origin. Note that I did not say it blocks all loads: this is specifically restricting JS access to content from other services. CORS was introduced so that it was possible to selectively provide JS with access to such data - previously you had to use JSONP which has bad security properties for the client and server. CORS is what lets JS on your site make an XHR to a remote API provider. Nothing stops you from simply creating an arbitrary element with an arbitrary src attribute (if relevant of course), and triggering a network load. It’s just that most such elements don’t convert the server response into data that can be subsequently accessed in JS, the ones that do (img, etc) can only be read via APIs that themselves enforce same origin restrictions (eg I can create an image element and point it to a remote server, then draw that image into a canvas. At that point the canvas element’s various read APIs will stop working as the canvas knows that it’s been tainted).

If you were to make non-same origin loads fail in the general case you would break everything.
This seems like such a needlessly kneejerk reaction just to speculate and rag unfairly on anything modern. Couldn't you have actually done some testing and research first?
> you'd see people building millions of small projects to easily meet the demand

On that theory, New York should have insanely cheap apartments due to lack of demand.
> There are still rows of historic terrace houses in the nearby suburbs that have been heritage listed. I'm sure property developers would love to turn these into more highrise apartments. Even though I'm renting, I don't want these to be replaced with endless new apartments. I could list a dozen reasons too.

Funny, I would have the opposite opinion. Just because someone was alive and rich back in 1950 or whenever these cute little houses were built, doesn't give them more of a right to live in that area than others, in my opinion.

Let's face it, most of these cute litte historic houses are probably owned by the same mega-rich investors and CCP party members as your apartment building.

2to3 really showed that Python didn't understand their audience.

If they had started a new project called COBRA and just eventually had it over take python the world would be all over it.

But massive breaking changes going from 2 to 3 was a disaster for their audience.

Worse still you could hear the acrimony in Pythons communications on the topic.
You mean it's natural for CEOs to literally threaten other CEOs?
The real error is probably that some fraction of this is children of those men, as in many family homes men are the ones who login to YouTube on the TV or other devices. That may or may not be beneficial depending upon whom the advertisers think they're bidding on.
Doubt this. Many of the libraries that made python so popular were born in Python 2.
e.g: most ml and scientific computing libraries still used today.
Nexvia | hybrid / onsite | Luxembourg, Luxembourg | Software engineer, senior, also looking for an intern

Nexvia is a modern real estate agency. I bet you were not expecting to read this on Hacker News ;-)

We are an hybrid company, with an old fashion business and revenue stream that enables us to be self funded and make our own choices. At the same time, we are using software to enhance our users', customers' and advisers' experience. We view technology as a way to empower people and try to deploy it in that direction.

Part of our business is also to sell market monitoring software to banks.

All our software has been and is being built internally. We are small so we pick our battles.

We work with PHP Laravel and React for the core of our web applications. We also use Python (for infrastructure management, build tools, data processing and secondary applications) and AWS.

Cool things: your work is making people's life easier, fluid interaction with everyone (small company), contribution on our technology choices.

You can discover more and apply through our site https://www.nexvia.lu/jobs or find a way to contact me on my profile.
In terms of him being a bully? He was pretty average a person. That’s the only point. Just a normal run of the mill jerk, maybe a bit eccentric about it, but could’ve been dozens of people I knew growing up. Whatever other life accomplishments don’t make him a remarkable jerk. Just a well known one.
I can attest that France still uses checks a lot. Just over this summer I wrote something like 5 checks.

Why did you substitute "art" for "bringing joy to millions of people for decades"?
Pipenv has pyenv integration. It just doesn't work with python 3.6 on my machine. My guess is that it tries running pipenv itself with the old interpreter and is no longer compatible. In any case, faffing around with 25 different third-party solutions is a horrible developer experience.

I'm wondering, is there work on how python 3's changes could have been promoted in smoother way?
That does sound like a rural area thing, makes sense there I guess. Reminds me of the "Bücherbus" (library bus) when I was a kid.
There has always been a tendency of authors to inject a lot of themselves into technical content, which is charming to some and anathema to others. And I would guess in the 80's people felt subversive and "not square" writing like this, too. There's a lot of it.

Starting FORTH is like this, and I love that book, but I can see how it would have irritated a lot of people from the era it was written in.
That's highly debatable. We talk a lot about global warming, which is due to CO2, which in turn is due to fossil fuels. So of course it sounds like it is an energy problem (and generating power in space, if that was actually better in terms of CO2 emissions, could help).

But what we always forget is that the mass extinction we are living right now (i.e. "we are destroying life on Earth") is not a consequence of global warming. Remove all the CO2 from the atmosphere right now, and we are still in a mass extinction. CO2 will just add global warming to the problem, but that's only a bonus.
Wouldn't the following still work?

"anyway a rounding error compared to the price of the car. But, more importantly,"

For car manufacturers rounding errors start many, many digits behind the decimal point. At their volume a cost down of a fractional cent is significant.
Ask HN: Is there a real reason to pay for things like Slack or Jira?
I’ve been thinking about this and can’t really come up with a good enough reason for companies to pay for these products.

A lot of chat is already solved, you can easily host a number of open source chat servers internally.

A lot of projects are literally just that, a project, with tasks that you can assign to a person and mark it done/not done.

Even something like Dropbox, like, dump shit into a shared drive.

I don’t know, it just feels like the tech version of paying for bottled water.

Should they continue being billion dollar companies? YouTube is determined to keep showing me get-rich quick schemes like starting your own e-commerce store, day trading, etc and it just got me thinking that those schemes work on a lot of people. This dynamic must exist in tech also, and right away all I could think about was these weird things we pay for as devs.

Like, we’re really gonna pay for chat? We’ve lost our minds.
It does, but if you're selling a used car for $10k, it's well worth it. Unless we use the same bank, I'm not walking around with that much cash and triggering reporting requirements. And if we use the same bank, we'll just do a transfer within it.
