Prisma is good for writing simple selects, updates, and deletes. But the moment you need to write any kind of advanced query with joins, nested queries, unions, etc. it gets frustrating very quickly.

Kysely and Knex are far more flexible for writing complex queries and don't get in your way.
Yes, that is correct. I don't believe there is utility in attempting to distinguish that.
The only Copilot-type system I'd consider using is one that did the opposite - generated comments from my code, so my lazy butt doesn't have to write them manually.

My favorite is when wireless carriers can charge a "Regulatory Recovery Fee", which is basically part of the price, but can magically change and magically appear on your bill. The fact that the FTC is fussed about free chat apps rather than wireless carrier practices in the US is obscene.
I think you might want to research the penal systems of the US a bit more closely. More than one state essentially functions on convict labor.
After a few crashes that bad UX played a part in, I'm reasonably confident that in a modern aircraft that switch is somewhere hard to press accidentally.

(E.g., fuel selector switches that can enter an unexpected state while looking like they're in the correct state, take-off/go-around switches that could be triggered by a first officer wearing a watch reaching for the speed brake lever, attitude indicators with ambiguous backgrounds, three-pointer/drum-pointer/counter-pointer altimeters)
Divestiture was on the table for U.S. v Microsoft but ultimately Microsoft paid a penalty and operated under federal supervision for years afterward.

It's hard to know how big of an impact that had on them. They definitely stagnated and missed huge product opportunities like search, social, and mobile. But it's not clear whether they would have missed those anyway based on their business model and culture at the time.

In the last three years, something related to my gut-brain connection got fucked. I'm not sure if it was some kind of post-viral inflammation causing stress, or stress of isolation causing inflammation. But it's definitely a two way street and mine got completely stuck in a feedback loop. The mainstream medical system failed to help me. Eventually some functional medicine doctors managed to help me improve via diet, supplements, herbal remedies and probiotics. Through (risky) experimentation and happenstance I found even more relief with some traditional medicines (pure Greek mastiha sap, kambo and Ayahuasca) and anti-malarial pills I had taken for unrelated reasons.

Unfortunately the mainstream medical system has been completely unable to investigate or explain what is going on with my body, but anecdotally, the theory that there is a two way street between gut bacteria and the brain completely aligns with my experience.

I'm feeling better now, though my stomach still feels sensitive and I can no longer tolerate gluten.

There really exists no non-subjective way of telling how "rough" somebody has had it.

Which means, you don't really know how rough somebody is having it right now. Just give them the benefit of the doubt and help them as much as you can.

The real problem is when people claim that other people really have it easy, easier than they did. You don't know what people are going through.
Is AI Art Copyrightable?
Art created by a generative AI platform (like Stability or Midjourney) is potentially copyrightable. The fact that an AI platoform was used does not, by itself, prevent the resulting art from receiving copyright protection. However, the art is only copyrightable if the human artist’s prompt contained sufficient expressive input.

So you want to use the excuse of drug smuggling to punish criminals above their judges ordered constitutionally legal sentence? Got it. Thanks for elaborating on your reasoning and why you don't believe 'all men are created equal' and have constitutional rights (with criminals, what we are discussing here is a protected right to 'familial association' if you want to look it up in case law and Supreme Court precedent). We don't have constitutional rights because they are easy, but because that is what the United States of America has said since it's founding is the right thing to do and the core of what it is as a country.
Eh I think that is honestly just not true with regards to Windows, sorry. There are like 1.5 billion computers running it. Them forcing updates is simply the best procedure because we live in a world full of complete asshats that want to create chaos and do malicious shit. The average person would never update their computers "deliberately" if that was the default.

It's simply the lesser of all evils to ensure people are relatively up to date on security.

I don't really like it either, but I understand it completely.
Tell me you’re an engineer that never built a business without telling me.

So should it also be illegal for third party browsers to keep nagging the user that they should be the default? That’s what Netscape did for years and what Chrome does
Eh. Sure, but do you remember why he was effectively forced to stay in Russia ( although with the benefit of hindsight, this may have worked out better for him than he initially anticipated ). Do you remember how US, allegedly, forced down an airplane over EU[1]?

None of this happened in a vacuum and while I do not automatically subscribe to this particular 'app', I do not dismiss it purely based on the messenger.

With the evolution of any languages you get cross-pollination between them, be it lambda functions, var/val, Markdown comments, value classes, .... For example, Java borrowed generics from languages like C++, and C# borrowed them from C++ and Java.
I'm a bit rusty (worked as a chemist 2011-2015 before going into compsci) but I believe that this reaction produces some chloroform (enough that you should not mix ethanol and bleach inadvertently), but mostly as a side-reaction. The main reaction will be oxidation to acetaldehyde and then acetate. But it's slow, you probably get a bunch of side-reactions, etc.

Acetone is a facile haloform reagent because the carbonyl acidifies ("loosens") the alpha hydrogen which allows the chlorine to attack the carbon.
Whenever you consider going self-host, consider what REDUNDANCY and DOWNTIME are worth to you.

Sure you can use an old computer and host at home much cheaper than AWS / Azure / etc. But on AWS / Azure / etc if the physical machine your VM is running on dies, your VM moves to another physical box within seconds without you having to do anything, within seconds, and without data loss. What is that WORTH to you?

That said, you can get a Synology NAS (easy) or build your own NAS (harder) and run Nextcloud in Docker. In the event of hardware failure (it will happen, it's just a matter of when), you'd just have to bring that Docker container + backing storage back up on the replacement gear.
thank you - got it this way! :)
Maybe you want that, but some people like working beside people who give a shit. Some of those places give equity, some give good paychecks, and some give a good work-life balance. Not everyone is motivated the same way you are.
> Typescript is designed to accept any valid Javascript program

That's not strictly true though. `a<b,c>(d)` is valid Javascript but Typescript treats it as a different syntactic construct[0].

Umm based on the statute and elements of the crime they were charged with and found guilty of.

Whoever, while committing a robbery, is armed with a dangerous weapon or any article used or fashioned in a manner to lead the victim to reasonably believe it to be a dangerous weapon, or inflicts bodily harm upon another, is guilty of aggravated robbery in the first degree and may be sentenced to imprisonment for not more than 20 years or to payment of a fine of not more than $35,000, or both.

Or is your stance that a person committing robbery with a weapon and threatening to use it should instead be considered a hapless person that has not chosen to act in a way that is highly likely to cause great injury or death? Like a gun is "ok" and should not be considered as evidence of intent to commit harm during the act of robbery unless they shoot it?
Just say no. If the added fees are known up front, take business elsewhere. If they're only revealed after the fact, I would become That Ugly Customer, and they would never get my business again. If enough do this, then behaviors will change, especially if such businesses are retaliated against. As they should be.
You can see some of the usual GPT consistency problems. I chose Alan Moore's Writing for Comics and asked it how I should start best when writing a comic. It suggested first thinking up characters and a world, then designing the visuals, then thinking up a story. I found that order somewhat odd, so I asked again if I should start with the story or the visuals - and suddenly it was very sure that I should start with the story, then design the visuals accordingly.

So, I really like the idea, but for now I'm not really sure the answers are always following the contents of the books.

Once the models improve, I'm very sure this will become extremely useful.
What distinguishes Matano'd existing or planned products from Google Chronicle? Would you have any limits on data ingestion or retention?

Also, python detections sounds horrible! I love python but it sounds like you haven't considered the challenges of detection engineering. This one of my main "expertise" if you will. You should think more in the lines of flexible sql than python. People who write detection rules to the most part don't know python and even if they do it would be a nightmare to use for many reasons.

I hope someone from your team reads this comment: DO NOT try to invent your own query language but if you do, DON'T start from scratch. Your product could be the best people who like the fabulous splunk need to also like it. And for a security data lake, you must support Sigma rule conversion into your query/rule format. Python is a general purpose language, there are very good reasons why no one else from Splunk,elastic, graylog, Google,Microsoft use Python. Don't learn this hard lesson with your own money. Querying it needs to be very simple and most importantly you need to support regex with capture groups and the equivalent of "|stats" command from splunk if you want to quickly capture market share. I have used and evaluated many of these tools and have written a lot of detection content.

Your users are not coders, DB admins or exploit developers. They are really smart people whose focus is understand threat actors and responding to incidents -- not coding or anything sophisticated. FAANG background founders/devs have a hard time grasping this reality.
This has got to be one of the misused parable in HN's history.

The Dropbox comment was missing the utility of a turnkey solution. It was like "No wireless. Less space than a Nomad. Lame.": techies missing the value of complicating things in order to produce a product that Just Works.

This comment isn't doing that, it's questioning the resources that it took places like Calendly as it exists. Calendly has a moat in the fact that it has a massive network effect... but it's natural to question what exactly about that moat qualifies a billion dollar valuation, and the answer is extremely little.

If Dropbox had been something you could build as it existed in a weekend it'd be one thing, but you couldn't. You could build something that had the same technical function, but none of the user experience. Calendly isn't that.
Yes - Right now it's entirely side-project mode, but I am averaging about 10-20 hours per week.
That wouldn't fit with the other options though. They are all about what you are currently doing, not what you have done. The current options are mutually exclusive, your new suggestion can be combined with all the other options.

This product would typically be used once a week for most clients. So they might have to reconnect anyways.

As a full time C programmer, implicit type conversion is probably my least favourite feature of C. Especially compared to other infamous aspects of the language.

For all its drawbacks, unchecked memory access is a defining feature of C. Try to remove it and you end up with a language that is very clearly distinct from C, hence Rust, Java, etc.

I think implicit conversation shuld just be removed from the language. The ergonomic benefits don't outweigh the harms.
A washing machine can probably tell if you have a family, what hours you're home and doing housework, what types of clothes you have, etc. They'll have their machine phone home constantly so they'll have your IP address logged and the SSID of your wireless network and your neighbors which will give them your location. They'll probably have your washer controlled via an app too that will constantly collect data from your cell phone even when you aren't using it.

They might actually eavesdrop on your network traffic. LG made a smart TV that crawled your home network collecting data and sending back things like any filenames it found on network shares or on USB drives that were connected (https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2013/11/lg-sm...)

I wouldn't be surprised if it also let them do things like remotely brick your appliance. Maybe because you used an "unauthorized" brand of soap/fabric softener, or maybe just because your warranty period had ended and they think you should buy another washer. Maybe four years after purchase they decide to switch to a Washing As A Service model and force you to add a credit card which charges you a small fee for every load.
Been building my blog with this the last couple of weeks. It's great and this version seems to sand down some of the rough edges (error messages used to be terrible, now they look like they'll be useful, content collections mean I don't have to glob everything then filter). Oh and markdown type checking is really cool. Looking forward to seeing how it develops over the next few years.
There are all sorts of ideologies (including the one you describe) contingent on the masses spontaneously, and effectively, coordinating in pursuit of a common goal.

However, they never describe how this will occur, except by some miracle. Practically, you'd need to control a sizeable chunk of the global media, internet, etc.

It's especially ironic coming from libertarian circles, because hyperindividualists pride themselves on not participating in mass psychology.

I first used LaTeX 30 years ago, and used it up until I needed to write a resume for a real job. I don't remember the particular style I used, but I was unsuccessful in getting a pleasing look for my tastes. I switched to plain TeX and have not looked back. Most resumes are just plain text with special fonts, horizontal rules, and custom spacing. You can do all of this with TeX primitives in a short period. I wasted hours over several days trying to figure this out with LaTeX.
> superset of objects can only have the same or fewer properties

This is potentially misleading. A superset will include more objects and therefore may include more individual properties. But type checking is about what can be safely assumed about all members of a set, so more different objects in the set will constrain the type more.

Object is a superset of Date because the set of objects includes alle Dates but also things which are not dates and have different properties. But in the context of type checking, object is more constrained because there are fewer properties which all members of the set are guaranteed to have.

Typescript is a superset of Javascript because all Javascript programs are also Typescript programs. There is no contradiction.
2-5 hours for a few hundred lines of tricky math code sounds like way too little. Not to mention, having to read and understand the paper first. Depending on the difficulty of the paper and your level of skill in the field, I'd say implementing a paper should take 20-200 hours.

Oh wow. That name brought back memories.
I know I'm not the average customer, but by default I'm skeptical that a) the "smart" part of an appliance actually improves the product and b) a public company will refrain from eventually turning a perfectly good standalone product into an unreliable, untrustworthy, brickable rent-seeking service.

(Alas, the real reason for low connectivity is surely just the difficulty for the average user of connecting the appliance to Wi-Fi.)
Follow-up questions, if I may:

> I have not been super enthused about the existing Mastodon apps.

Have you considered donating to the existing/contributing to the development of the existing open source clients?

> I do support the server I am using monthly.

If I may ask: how much? And what if I told you there is a commercial instance where accounts are priced at $10/year that for all intents and purposes is managed to your satisfaction, would you consider it?

> instances gaining unique features

I am not thinking of protocol level differences, but some type of improvement that could help people be more at ease when migrating to AP servers. E.g; a better search system, or a server level bridge that can let you (or other users of the same instance) follow people on twitter/instagram/youtube "transparently"
Surely there are easier ways to get that data.
You said it yourself. They're not profitable and they lack cash flow. If they hired under those circumstances without telling employees what kind of risk they were taking, that is unethical. I don't need to know who got laid off or how long they were there to know that. Before I give empathy to rich CEOs and execs, they can explain themselves transparently. This never happens though.
Mr. Fring would like to see you in his office. Now.
This is one application of AI that I absolutely like. Imagine in future the AI will be able to ingest any video, blog, books, manuals, license and whole lot of other things and we will just be able to ask questions to it or get a summary from it.

I wonder what will happen to actual content then. Currently YouTube is showing info about most watched section of the clips. It saves so much time! Now imagine that happening to everything above.

> But I think even finding out is a long way away. The main thing that ChatGPT has nailed is glibness. It produces text that sounds authoritative, whether or not it's correct. And it's often incorrect.

Perfect example I found a while back: If you know Chinese or Japanese, ask ChatGPT for the stroke order of a certain character and watch how confidently it tells you how to draw a nonsensical scribble.

Even when you ask it for the stroke order of 一, it will tell you to draw a vertical line!

In ‘97, there was SilkAir 185. NTSB was fairly certain that was pilot suicide. Another one was EgyptAir 990 in ‘99.

In terms of fatalities and hull losses, pilot suicide is a much larger risk than the 737 Max. It’s made worse by outdated FAA rules that would have pilots grounded for seeking treatment.
Spot on. A Product (which most engineers can hack together) shouldn't be confused with a Business.
Audio is super cheap, and easy to index. Releasing it all has zero downside yet enables better investigation. Even things like dead-air pops/hums could potentially offer clues. (And an unbroken timeline is important in and of itself.)

Someone once reconstructed an entire helicopter's location telemetry just from the dead-air hum recorded by a video camera. Don't underestimate the value of any piece of information. It's a failure if there's needless withholding.
