> If your stdout is not a terminal, and you're sending out escape codes, you're just spewing useless garbage.

That is just not the case, as the previous poster already said.

"prog | grep foo" outputs to the terminal. From prog's perspective it doesn't, but it does. Do you want escape sequences in there? Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't.

Even "prog | less" outputs to the terminal, indirectly, and less can interpret escape sequences.

"Always unconditionally output escape sequences" is wrong, but "always unconditionally disable them with isatty()" is also wrong. What a reasonable default is depends on the type of application and how it's likely to be used.

Ask HN: Why did HN get rid of the “web” button?
We used to have a Web button in the menu buttons of each post that would take you to the archive.is version of a paywalled article. Instead now it’s gone and we have to wait for someone to comment the link (or do it ourselves), and hope that dang pins the comment to the top before we find the article ourselves. It’s a suboptimal solution. What gives?
Haha totally agree :)

I guess in this case what matters is the estimated lenght of the product lifecycle.

I'm right now writing open source library in ts hoping that a ui will pick it up. I may need to write the UI myself at the end, but that will be much easier after I put every feature in my library I can think about :)
Not sure if it helps, but this is exactly how I read your earlier comment. I still don't quite understand the defensiveness coming from some of the responses.
You say that, but the 2to3 tool did a brilliant job of doing just that, and as it understood the AST it actually didn't try to bullshit like ChatGPT and Co-Pilot do at time.

I use Co-Pilot, it's super helpful but, god it's good at bullshitting. Sometimes you think "wow" but then stop and look what it's done and it's all very wrong, but looks very right. Although that's only like 10% of the time.

Im looking forward till they combine Co-Pilot with the static analysis tools you have with statically typed languages, that is going to be so much better.

> If you see it as flippant then that might reflect on you.

It does reflect on me. It reflects the fact that I can't read minds.

You gave a widely known quote, and in your mind it was crystal clear what you meant. But to other people, who can't read your mind, it just sound flippant.

It sounds like you think NuScale is a bunch of theoreticians. And that with your remark you are trying to put down their decade-long quest to achieve something.

Maybe it does not sound flippant to you, but I assure you, it is flippant.

It used to be difficult to transact in orders of less than 100 shares. There's still a bias against 'odd lots', at exchanges, but market makers love small orders because they tend to be retail orders and it's better to trade with retail than institutions generally.

Trading under $10 is discouraged by the exchanges. Trading above $100 is discouraged because 100x $100 is $10,000, which is a lot of money. Targetting about $25 was the norm.

Single lot sales and now fractional sales makes a lot of that less necessary, and so more companies have avoided doing it.

But there used to be 'low priced stock funds' which would buy stocks around $10 and sell them around $25 and do pretty well.

Spotify and Apple Music to me sound about the same. Amazon Music supports CD-quality audio minimum by default, which is nice. I think YouTube supports 24b/96k audio (or the video/audio-track equiv) assuming that's what the user uploads. The official record-company uploads to YouTube sound close to CD-quality but might not literally be.
What you've got here is a political argument between conservative and progressive. To be clear, I mean each term as used explicitly in this context. The argument is whether or not to change contemporary societal behavior.

The natural result is selection bias for any progressive viewpoint, because there is inherently more to be said and more motivation to say coming from the progressive perspective than the conservative one.

Eh, steel manning the role it kind of just sounds like a TPM. When roles are crisply defined, a good TPM has been a life changer for my job satisfaction. You basically get permission to farm out a lot of the most annoying parts of the job--status update forums, timeline management, and dependency wrangling--to another person who does it full time.
It took bold and determined leadership to make the breaking changes necessary to do things the right way. There were plenty of entrenched interests that would have preferred to keep doing things the wrong way because it was easier in the short term. If GvR and the rest of the core developers had been cowed by the reactionaries, Python would have stagnated. Instead, they persevered, and the language is much, much better today because of it. Woe to those of us who still have to use Python 2.
Another basic Q. (sorry, I am comfortable with the Euler characteristic, and with filling holes in STL models, but not with homology):

Taking chains to be a rough analogue of functions, could we say that cycles on (X,A) serve as a kind of dual space for A? (because if we ignore intermediates, they're basically connecting A<->A?) So from the dual side, we seem to have the case that an appropriate quotient might be A/X?

(maybe an alternate view of what I'm trying to ask about: in Mathematics Made Difficult, we find many proofs of [something in A implies something else in A] which, instead of being limited in scope to A and its subfields as is customary, wander leisurely through X to ultimately prove the inclusion in A)
The funny thing about this germanium transistor is that it looks like a TO-3 power transistor package, the large flanged metal.

> Requires you to create an account on that specific platform, plus we have a few examples (eg: Facebook, YouTube) where the platform might decide to not notify everyone if the content isn't "worthy".

Precisely. One downside is you have to have an account on the platform to receive notifications but this can be overlooked by the fact that SM platforms have X10/0 reach (potential) comparatively. Besides the type of person who wants to engage audiences via email subscriptions isn't necessarily eager to post unsavory content.

No. The point is to receive alerts for new content. No sorting is done for this list as far as am aware of.

What makes it a hard call is that, in an organization that's trying to be engineering-focused, the product owner typically has as much say in what work you'll be doing as the person the org chart says you report to. (They have the most relevant expertise - a "people manager" has to spend a lot of their time managing people, while the product owner's sole and full-time responsibility is understanding what work the product needs.)
Sure. But the punishment should be proportional to the deed not to how underfinanced is your law enforcement budget.

Pretty much the same for me: I'm only able to write any sort of decent tests if there's some initial version of the code already there. Typically that means a prototype-ish only-works-on-the-happy-path version I wrote in an exploratory way, then that first test can be for the happy path. After that it's pretty easy to copy the test, tweak parameters, and figure out where the first version breaks TDD-style.

A related, but different phenomena: Streaming episodes have been edited to inject product placement.

A scrum master was one of the most useless people I’ve ever worked with. Not a product or project manager because they didn’t know the domain. Didn’t know all that much about building software because they didn’t have any skills. Devs were still writing and moving tickets around so they basically did zero productive work.
That’s point. Just because your experience differs doesn’t make it false.
There is some value in consuming a mix of both push and pull content. In the modern world we've gone way overboard on only consuming what we want exactly when we want it it. News letters are more like a magazine or newspaper subscription where you're choosing to have content randomly pushed at you to broaden your horizons. Also as a content creator it enables you to write differently for a smaller but way more engaged audience. It's like the difference between having a private conversation with a large group of friends versus getting on your soap box on the street corner.
Funnily enough, Amiga and ST blitters did a similar thing a few years back. Notably they were not much faster than the CPU (the 68030 was faster) but the main advantage was the bit shifting as well as the byte transfer functions in parallel with the CPU, that gave them an edge
Don't listen to my opinions, sure. But pay heed to the large number of computational chemists who do use these languages. There is a reason that professionals employ the tools that they do.
You are absolutely on point, yes. The building blocks themselves are what the users will extend upon and use. That plays a very big role in composition and reuse. There will also be configurations and contexts (which are really quite simple mechanisms, really) that will factor into this, too (for the purposes of customization so that the users don't have to modify the original code to change some behavior or slot). Of course, prototype OO itself has a key agency here.

I also like to think about this in terms of "building blocks", not just an exposition of API. So, Emacs has the notion of a buffer for its building block (the only one, I believe). Cells and lenses will be building blocks.
I don’t think it’s about individuals getting canceled. It’s about how the streaming service has carte blanche power to decide the material on the service, regardless of what society wants.

Yup, I do the same, and can recommend it.

You get the benefits of both physical media, and convenience of soft storage availability. That music is mine, and can never be sold to me again.

In case some might be wondering what the "benefits" of physical media are; it's my belief that having to _commit_ to listening to a CD (not being able to flick through different albums and artists easily on Spotify, as the whim comes) is psychologically sound, and the alternative is damaging.

This goes for films too. Those old enough to remember renting DVDs — or even VHS! — may remember the excitement of getting that film back to their place to watch. The whole thing was an experience, and whether the film was good or bad, you had a good time with whoever you were with, because you had an _experience_. More often than not though, you enjoyed the film, because you wanted to. You invested, so it was worth more to you.

Actually this is more than "my belief", but I can't be bothered to find the research.

I agree in part and disagree in part. I want there to be a financial incentive to improve the lives of humanity via medical advances, whether that’s pharmaceutical, surgical, assistive devices, etc.

I also want to leave money for the rest of the economy, so that doesn’t really leave room for $5200/year/person for 2 COVID shots. (That’s about 7.5% of GDP just for COVID shots if every American gets 2 such shots per year, which is pretty obviously untenable.)

Ryan Dahl's great talk on design mistakes he made with node.js is something I think about all the time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3BM9TB-8yA

Even though he considers things like `require('./something')` defaulting to either `./something.js` or `./something/index.js` a mistake, he also admits these are not possible to change at this point.

I think Python made a mistake trying to correct design problems in 2. The cost of change simply wasn't worth the price of migration. Is `print("text")` really that much of an improvement over `print "text"`?
