>>hey've been unaccountable to the public, they've lied about what people do (pretending they've attacked them), they've lied about their use of force, and attacked people in tents to displace them.

So a normal police force then?

This is a natural reaction when property crime goes unenforced by the government. I know this will be an unpopular take but property crime like shoplifting is not a "victimless" crime against evil "corporations" and when it allowed to occur unchecked it creates an over all unsafe condition for everyone.

There needs to be ALOT of police reforms, not punishing crime should not be in that list of reforms but that seems to be the #1 action taken by "reformers" of late

I would say quite a bit, as it implies substantial space infra being in place. Still not pretty, but at least you would avoid things like cramming 20 kamikaze welders in space suits inside a Proton fairing per lunch to turn ISS to a space arch.

BTW, on this note I can recommend The Ring of Charon[0] and its follow-up books. In this case, its Earth suddenly vanishing due to some ancient alien technology being activated by mistake. The book then follows the consequences for the advanced but still partially Earth dependent space habitats in the Solar system as well as people on Earth figuring out WTH their planet has ended up and why.

Would you please care to point to something ACTUALLY useful to end users that came out of the W11 UI "redesign"?

Because you cannot legitimately look at the W11 task manager and tell me it was designed with any sort of professional UI/UX in mind. It's busy work to keep a job. And if it is then there's something deeply wrong where no UX theory is being applied, or they're being overruled to make it "app-y".

Every damn day I try to be mindful of my state of mind.

I will exercise, do breathing exercises, talk through things, write, make arrangements to sleep more the following night, or just call it a day before it even really starts. Sometimes I don’t have the luxury to end early or run, but I will then try to do a little meta reflection about the situation and assess what needs improvement and or can be done on the spot to cope.

But only when using an Apple product (for the iCloud solution) or Android device or Chrome browser (for Google's), right?

My parents use whatever browser their company has installed on their computers, which I think is Chrome for one person and Edge for the other. Their home laptop is a Surface Laptop device with Edge on it.

It'd work for their phones, and I honestly don't see them switching to Android anytime soon, but it's still not available all the time, and I haven't been able to get them to do anything but autofill of the passwords I created for them. Even as is, telling them to go to a dedicated app to copy a password to use on their laptops is a step too much. Adding more complexity isn't going to help.

> Unless there is clear evidences upfront that the project will be a piece of software where local performance is highly critical, it makes sense to favor code readability and maintainability over optimality.

Sure, but let's also not confuse "optimal" with "reasonable". One of the major challenge of modern programs is how slow they are at every level. Very often, this bad performance can be attributed to a style of programming that tries to completely ignore that the program will run on a real machine with real hardware. A little bit of mechanical sympathy (e.g., operations that make good use of the CPU caches or don't confuse the branch predictor) can yield a program that is 10x faster than a naive implementation, with little to no loss of readability or maintainability. (In fact, as noted by Nelson Elhage [1], faster programs enable simpler architectures, which helps make them more readable and maintainable.)

In FP languages, programmers face an extra difficulty: the distance between the code they write and the machine code that will be executed is greater than in languages like Rust or Go. They will need to be knowledgeable about the language, its libraries, and its compiler to avoid the pitfalls that could make their programs slower than would be reasonable (e.g., avoiding unnecessary thunking in Haskell).

Germany (the richest European country) would rank somewhere around 39th as a U.S. state (just below Tennessee and Missouri).

Hi HN, I graduated a year ago with a B.Sc. in Computer Science, and since then have taken on a couple freelance projects on my own. I'm now looking for a more permanent position in the software industry, and while being relatively new developer, I believe I have strong fundamentals and a focus on delivering readable, maintainable code. Looking forward to hearing from some of you!
The controller in this example is fooApi(). I generally reserve this layer for taking the input parameters (ie: query/post data), and then passing that data to some sort of service which executes the business logic on that data.

For example, the business logic is what talks to the database. This way, I can test the controller separately from the business logic. Often, I don't even bother testing the controller, since it is usually just a single line call to the business logic.

Anyone who writes a lot of tests realizes very quickly that in order to write testable code, you have to separate out the layers and compartmentalize code effectively in order to allow it to be easily tested. Tracking dependencies is critical to good testing (which is where this whole DI conversation got started).

If you aren't writing code like this, then you're just making testing harder on yourself... and then we end up with tons of code which can never be modified because the dependencies between layers are all too complicated and intertwined. Don't do that.

At this point in my 27+ year career, I don't see any reason to not do things correctly. The patterns are all instinctual and no need to try inventing something new, I don't even think about it any more, I just do it from the start.
Could be that many business/hiring folks are still on holiday. I don't blame them for not spending their holiday on HN :).
Ah I beg your pardon. I read the comment in completely the wrong tone of voice.

To me it seemed like the comment was attacking its parent for investigating state management frameworks in the first place - when it in fact called out "no framework" as a valid alternative to any number of frameworks.

(I hope that made sense)
Complexity in software typically comes from codebases made for multiple teams. When you have multiple teams, this is unsurprisingly a benefit. When you don't, you typically get one team pretending to be many, and the needs of the other personas will be guessed, not known.

Web frontend work starts at a disadvantage because of the css/html/js divide. If you actually have distinct designers/authors/coders, it works as designed. If you have a small team, it doesn't. To the typical disasters that we are all used to and have probably been responsible for.

The best symptom of this, to really demonstrate, is when you don't know what tools a contributor needs other than a text editor.
Make the funding for it a multi-country project, with whoever the main funder is getting ideological/representative credit for it over time. This will skirt both the "can this even survive multiple administrations" problem while also incentivizing continued participation via competition for international prestige.
My ordering based on personal experience would be:

AWD + Winter > AWD + All-Season > FWD + Winter > FWD + All-Season

There are plenty of videos[1] showing the above. I guess it should come as no surprise that it comes down to the vehicle, the tires, the conditions, and the driver.

At least for me driving in the PNW (temps usually not too much below freezing), Kumho Crugens (all-season) on my AWD SUV are way superior to Michelin X-Ice (winter) on my FWD minivan. Braking is longer on snow and ice with all-seasons, so I leave 8 car lengths of distance minimum when following other cars. The SUV has superior ESC and traction control that way out perform the minivan.

Several times in my FWD minivan with winter tires, I have been unable to go uphill on icy roads and had to put on chains. Whereas the AWD has no issues at all.

> It's no different from bank login in the end, once someone has it, it can be transferred at will.

Bank login credentials do not confer undisputed ownership of an account. If someone unauthorized gets ahold of them, the bank doesn't throw up its hands and say "welp, nothing we can do now, the account just belongs to the hacker".
> I find Odersky's "values" or approach to programming language design much more in line with my own.

Odersky's "values" primarily appear to be whatever will appease the masses, which is why Scala started with curly braces and OOP. So much of his intellectual capital has been spent on trying to combine objects, subtyping and FP, that I can't help but feel it could have been better spent elsewhere. Folks are moving on from OOP. Scala is in danger of building what people once wanted, but don't want any more. IMHO there are better ways of bringing first-class modules to FP (e.g. see the 1ML paper).
The last two times I rented an AirBNB, the actual experience was dramatically worse than the glowing reviews. Now I don't trust the reviews, and I don't use AirBNB any more. I went back to hotels, and I'm happy with that decision.
By "non-OTA sources" I mean cable and streaming packages that include local stations, yes.

People by and large don't want to spend time getting their antenna setup just right, if I'm honest. It was always a bit of a pain in the rear, but the way digital OTA falls off means that marginal reception results in no viewable image, instead of a highly snowy but still quite functional signal (the brain can usually pick through even a huge amount of analog noise and still understand what is going on and being said). They'd much rather pay a service that will provide them the signal hassle-free.

The inherent need to orient your antenna correctly (or even move the rotation between channels), and the huge glut of extremely poorly made antenna equipment, is probably what heavily results in "I can't get any reception where I live". I understand 8VSB is also not the best form of encoding that the US could have chosen, and that COFDM (as used in Europe) is technically a better solution.

Regardless, the channels are still counted as OTA for the discussion. I only brought this up for awareness that TV stations, and by extension the networks, do make money directly from OTA broadcasting, besides that which comes from advertising revenue.

> and we haven't done enough of that so far.

Yet we still have infinitely more underground settlements on earth than we can conceivably have on Mars in any imaginable future...
Yes.

"Thousands of years" is clearly wrong, so it is at best several centuries.

About "decades": I'm not saying it will, but that it could.

It is completely in the plausible, and scientists have been proven to be too much conservative, to the great surprise of everyone including themselves.
For me the reason for the explosion in complexity in both frontend and backend comes down to package managers on all platforms getting way better with transitive dependencies and lowering the cost of adding those dependencies. Developers used to be wary of bringing in another dependency just in case it created some conflict, but ecosystems that near-perfectly encapsulate transitive dependencies have gradually done away with that healthy wariness, with a combinatorial explosion in packages as a consequence.

Create-react-app installs 1500 packages to show a hello world page, and it is quite sane in its choice of dependencies. For me this is a symptom of the whole npm ecosystem being diseased with dependicitis.
Are there any radios with a good app experience you could recommend?
To forward your secrets to your family (shared vaults) you need a remote vault that both sides connect to. That's their implementation choice... but given that BW is OSS, you could theoretically change that behavior if you know how.
Well I can't speak for OP, but there are aspects of checks that are decentralized regardless of how brashly libertarian your perspective is. Like the idea that you yourself are effectively creating your own quasi-currency note by writing on a piece of paper, regardless of the machinery making it so that can work is more centralized.

In general, there is much libertarian thinking that shortsightedly focuses on the unilateral "exit" without thinking about what comes next. It's a reaction to how complex and overbearing our institutions have become, spurred on by capital looking to digest the proceeds. I'm a libertarian, but I recognize that it's ultimately a yin-yang - if there is a "completely free" power vacuum, some other power will often fill it, creating a de facto government by another name - one that generally won't have any mechanisms of accountability. The approach of defining rights axiomatically simply does not work, due to the contradictions created by layered complexity. An example of how this plays out after the first step is the current web 2.0 catastrophe. The first amendment definition of free speech may be necessary, but it is not sufficient - unaccountable companies have consumed the power vacuum at scale, digested it, and spit it back out in terms of heavily editorialized spaces that we still try to use as if they're public venues.

(And just to be clear on my immediate practical stance, I think the current "free speech" marketing campaign of Twitter et al is utterly specious. The problem is the amassing of such power in the first place, due to the centralizing technologies webapps are built on. Changing the flavor of the Kool-Aid doesn't fix the fundamental problem.)
> So linear types are incompatible with traditional exception handling.

Nice to see this spelled out. If the instance can be summarily dropped without error you can throw past it, and ideally call it affine instead of linear.

If the instance needs that close() call, you either can't throw past it, or you need to move the live instances into the exception instance as it passes by and deal with them at the catch site. I found a paper discussing that somewhere but didn't keep a reference to it.

A possibly interesting compromise is to allow linear types, but their live range cannot contain an unknown function call, or a function call coloured with throws. That models holding on to some handle and not doing anything too hazardous until you can put it away safely.
So housing is cheap now, right?

The tech being there isn't helpful if it's too expensive to use at scale. And the computers then were... passable at best. It would be exceedingly hard to adequately control a rocket for an accurate powered landing at the time.

> you won't be doing four missions in parallel

Well you do have the problem of only having an ideal launch window every 2 years, so you do have to do them at the same time with minimal spacing or wait forever to try again. I think the plan was to only do two ships at a time initially though.

Some things you can compensate and plan for, some failures are just natural or random. Like a micrometeorite hitting two of the main computers or something.
Your conclusion doesn't follow. Why wouldn't people who sleep rough benefit from a housing first policy?
