Why are using Docker then? I have little experience with Ruby, but for PHP projects we're still using ye olde way. Deploys are hot and do not interrupt requests, just as you described (it pretty much comes down to running `composer install && rsync` in CI — there are more complicated solutions like capistrano, which I've also used, but they don't seem to provide enough features to warrant increased complexity).

The point is that C maps quite poorly onto the ISAs of most processors other than a PDP-11. There are various features of even 8086 that are not easily available in C (such as overflow detection) and huge numbers of instructions in newer ISAs that don't have any direct mapping to C code.

Additionally, modern processors have execution models that are entirely different from the C machine model, but this is often hidden even from the ISA. For example, modern x86-64 cores execute code by splitting up instructions into micro-instructions, determining data dependencies between them, then queueing them up on any of the available execution units (of various kinds) in parallel - which is about as far from the C model of executing instructions 1 by 1 in a series as it is from Haskell.
And it’s not like that any sexually deprived young man just walks into a brothel like he walks into a pharmacy in Germany. That’s highly stigmatized and I suppose it is in the other countries as well.

I think it’s not so overt or intentional. It’s more of a confabulation effect.
Totally agree. I'm probably forgetting part of it, since with the second one, things are way different, they play together and the younger learns to play by himself way faster, thanks to his "teacher" (the sibling)

I'm not sure that's true. The traits "known" are more subversive. Did you meet at a country/city club? At a gym? An upscale restaurant or bar? Do you have an accent? What are you wearing? What are you drinking? What do your friends look like? How do you carry a conversation? What unconscious body language and facial cues do you communicate?

I'm willing to bet that I could reliably predict 80%+ of whatever profile attributes you fill out online, with a 2 minute conversation and good look at you.
Are there any physiological or biological signatures for Long Covid? Is there any objective way to diagnose?

The symptoms of Long Covid are so vague and our recent work so wacky, you could use the same criteria used to diagnose Long Covid to diagnose "Long Lockdowns Syndrome" with all the same vague symptoms.

That's why depression is classified as a disorder and not a disease. We really don't know the full range of causes and it seems likely there's several different ones.
There is some serious engineering in what they do -- CPU and memory architecture, OS design and implementation, high speed networking, homomorphic encryption are all areas I've collabed with IBM. I assure you, the average engineer quality at IBM I've worked with has been incredibly high and the people themselves very _very_ creative.
There is much less competition in a bar. Very rarely would an attractive guy in a bar be picking up 3 or 4 women at the same time. So those women would be forced to not choose anyone, or choose a different man. Next, an attractive man can only "court" a very small actual number of women in a physical real time setting, vs online.
Yeah this is a very widely misunderstood or unknown thing about docker files. After the nth time explaining it to somebody, I finally threw it into a short video with demo to explain how it worked: https://youtu.be/RP-z4dqRTZA

I've observed it as well, and the truth is that attractiveness is just highly individual. And the guys they do think are attractive are often just their particular brand of 'cute' average guy who to my eyes as a non-attracted-to-men person don't look that much different than the previous 10 guys they swiped left on.
Very little of the product shortages (and subsequent inflation) came from people staying home. The vast majority came from global supply chain disruptions.

(Which I guess is still technically people staying home, but its a bit different if you're being forcibly locked in your apartment in China vs what the "lockdown" was in the US)
Perhaps. But it's also "weird" that it only exists with same-sex. Why is it a cultural taboo for single men and single women to say, hold hands, if they aren't in a monogamous relationship with anyone else, and are doing so consensually?

I feel like traditional culture is the only thing that says "you shouldn't do that", which seems equally ridiculous to me.
I'm willing to be proven wrong. Up until now, there hasn't been a lot of scientific evidence pointing to a specific physiological cause.

The average mortgage in my town is north of $5000/mo.

That $2400/mo is the true cost of insurance. Your bigco employer pays most of it, and you pay the rest.

So, yes, when that part of your pay is lost, it sucks. It sucks a lot. But that's not what we're discussing. We're discussing the financial situation you're in when you get paid bigco wages, and have to deal with 8% layoffs every 8 years, or working somewhere else, where you get paid substantially less (And also probably have to deal with layoffs, it's just that they don't hit the front page of HN).

It's a financial no-brainer to me. If the wage delta is more than a rounding error, I'm much better off, financially in just taking the money.
IMO a lot get lost in the stats. I can think of plenty of guys in my hometown who have no problem attracting female acquaintances, despite low or no prospects.

Alot of people in these situations have let the broader zeitgeist tell them they are entitled to something. If you’re a 40-year old divorcee, the market for supermodels or professional athletes is limited.
The point is that C is very far away from being a "portable assembly" for any kind of modern processor. For the PDP-11 and other processors from that era, there was indeed some pretty simple 1:1 mapping between C instructions and their assembly. This has not been true for decades.
I bet cases of fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome are down while long covid is up.
> 1) I was raised into believing that sex implies serious relationship and vice versa. As in "if we are having sex that means we are in serious relatioinship".

As it turned out - this does not work like this for most (many?) people. Turns out yuo can just have a good time and some sex without worrying about 1001 things before you do so.

This seems to contradict some view on women's POV here. As in, for women the sexual transaction is big serious deal.
Do you want to live in a future where anything 'original' an artist creates has now blocked anyone else on the planet for the next 99 years and you must pay them royalties? Because we already have Disney now and they suck quite a bit.

I honestly want to live in a world where this 'worrying about paying for rent' is not a problem that we're concerned with, and a world with AI that can create and make we far more apt to achieve that than with the status quo we've been following so far.
Credit Karma tricked customers into credit cards
You mean the artists who use similar brushes in photoshop and don’t know how to paint and musicians who use logic, auto tune, loop samples and don’t know how to play an instrument?

Copyright what? Someone’s brain? You can copyright a specific work or a character, but you actually want to live in a world where someone can copyright the color red with a dark black line, or the G# chord?

Real artists are going to art, and musicians are going to make music. People who do creative work do it to express themselves, their point of view or to say something.

Corporate art exist to sell you soda - I am not sure your argument lands quite like you want it to.

I am glad this is going to court, because, with my understand of how neural nets work, I fail to see how any copyright is being infringed.

My Siemens dishwasher is smart and it’s got a nice feature where from my phone I can set it to start or finish washing at a certain time.

Except, if there is a power failure it forgets the schedule. At the moment in South Africa we lose power 2-4 times a day for 2 hours at a time due to load shedding (useless government and power utility). This powerloss scenario is not a rare edge case here.

It’s a pity because I would like to schedule the dishwasher to start after the power is due back (the load shedding is on a mostly reliable schedule), but with this loss of memory, that doesn’t work.

Relatedly, on my oven (and the AEG one at my previous place) you can’t turn them on until you set the clock, as someone who lives where there are multiple power outages a day, this seems like the most counter productive “feature” ever, is it actually useful in some way?
"Stop telling people who have serious physical symptoms that it's all mental"

As someone who has serious physical symptoms stemming from mental disorder, I think you're being a dick. The experience is the same even if the root cause is mental. And your attitude belittles it.
They're actually making their money from negligence. If you plan to sell an internet connected device you better be prepared to to put care and effort into designing & maintaining it.
Agreed. I think it itself could've been split into two books, and could easily merit a sequel or two.

But I suppose wanting more is better than the opposite?
We had supply shortages because all the slack has been taken out of systems to "improve efficiency", which was an entirely predictable, but accepted trade-off of those decisions.

High inflation isn't the fault of people barely scraping by, its a reaction to supply disruptions worldwide.

I expect 10% inflation for the next decade, because of demographic shifts and deglobalization, in the US. The rest of the world will be worse as capital flees to the US.

Sex in general may or may not be gatekept by women, but good, enjoyable, risk-free sex is gatekept by men. Is it any wonder that people don't want bad. risky sex?
That's helpful. I wasn't aware of the eventual licensing enforcement.

If I'm understanding you correctly, you see the similarity more in how the initial side-stepping of copyright eventually gave way to new licensing rules (or adherence to existing rules).

I've heard similar sentiment trying to make another point entirely - something closer to arguing that the AI is creatively inspired the way humans are, and therefore is by definition not infringing.

I suspect this might be where the flurry of downvotes came from.
IBM sold their retail technology division to Toshiba a few years ago.

Most of their cash register controllers can run on x86, so, it's not dependent on their hardware for the backend.

Their cash registers can run the 4690 OS or Windows/Linux/whatever, but, most choose to run the 4690 Operating System due to its security features.

I worked at IBM in their retail marketing side in the early 2000's, so, it's possible that everything I've typed here is 20+ years out of date.

Currently building with Next/TRPC/Prisma/PG and would choose it again. I might be a little slower than starting with a full-featured MVC kit like Laravel or Rails, but having an e2e type system is so worth it to me. I do miss having a more mature ORM.

I'm constantly tempted by Phoenix but desuaded by the lack of a type system. Does elixir somehow make up for the lack of types as a functional language? Also, I can reuse a good deal from my current stack in a react-native app for mobile, which I'd miss out on in another framework.

Wish I could say Flutter, but have not been impressed by the web experience.

A few years ago a friend told me about something called eye movement desensitization something (EMDR). I wasn't buying it but I built a prototype anyways, and was really impressed with how effective it was. The code is super crappy, but the experience is quite good imo. Here's a link:

Typically when a government department with no IT needs something they go to IBM.

Of course IBM then have massive cost overruns they charge to the government and they repeatedly bungle it all in embarrassing ways. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-11-25/ibm-to-pay-over-$30m-...

I like that I can just drag & drop or paste any image into Yandex Translate website and it translates anything, also it has a better language detection than google translate, so you don't have to waste time to look the language you want to translate from. So far I haven't found any alternative, other than Bing translate desktop app...
At the same time, all these cases are on the internet somewhere. It wouldn’t be too tricky to make a lawyer gpt that is heavily trained on existing legal documents, and is only allowed to quote verbatim from real sources.
I'm curious why you are calling them rational? They will lead to reduced morale. And will lead to more attrition afterwards. And probably won't lead to any sort of increased income. So, what makes them any more rational than going straight to bankruptcy?
It seems more likely that the significant lockdowns and deep isolation that came with it had these same effects. When you can't see friends for months, can't do anything but stay home and watch tv/play video games, and are constantly exposed to news of a depressing, ill world - what else do you feel?

You don't need covid to feel "Long Covid" after the life we've lived in the last 2 years.

I'm not sure I am going to articulate this in a way that is clear, but I think that hunting, farming, and fighting have a different cultural meaning in a patriarchal society vs. a matriarchal society. If the act of fighting is tied up with what it means to be a man, I think Englishman fighting and a Hopi man fighting can be said to be taking different actions for the purpose of what you are discussing. So even though Hopis and English people would say "men fight," they would still view that in a very different way/would not have the same definition of a man in their minds.
Yep, it would definitely be a use case - so post-operative chest or abdominal surgery patients are often given breathing exercises. It's not yet a medical device, so can only be used in stress and anxiety ('wellness'). The basic functionality would be similar - breathing exercises, responsive visuals, encouragement, but hopefully we can add more specific measurements of lung function in the medical device version (track improvement / deterioration)
> Does anyone else have a better explanation for why there was such a visceral response?

It doesn't really matter if it'd work well or poorly. Lawyers don't want to be replaced, and being a lawyer entails a great ability to be annoying to delay/prevent things you don't want to happen.
A lot of people were severely negatively affected by the world's reaction to the pandemic. Businesses closed, jobs lost, financial insecurity, etc. Surely this could have an impact on the collective mental health.

It differs in my country, and it is very likely. The US follows an anglo approach to law. No country in the EU follows that – I do understand that it is the easiest to assume that other countries work like you expect, though not very productive.

Most states also require a law degree in addition to passing the Bar.

But a fun fact is that magistrates generally aren't required to pass the Bar, nor hold a law degree. Most states require extremely basic courses of 40 or so hours of training. I know of a magistrate that has tried numerous times to pass the Bar and has failed. I'm not sure how much competence our system mandates.
Ask HN: Why are so many PHP projects moving to Node?
I started my software engineering career as a PHP developer about 15 years ago. Looking back now I understand why PHP had a bad reputation - the language objectively had a lot of problems and the PHP ecosystem in the mid 00s was very immature compared to the battle tested ecosystems of Java and .NET.

But since then, and with the release of PHP 7, the language and ecosystem has matured massively. For one, Laravel is excellent - the framework is well designed, the docs are some of the best I've ever worked with, and the developer tooling is (in my opinion) unrivalled.

I work mostly on Node / Java back ends professionally these days, but I find myself almost exclusively using Laravel for my personal projects. THe reason being I'm so much more productive in PHP & Laravel compared to Java. And don't get me wrong, Java is great for building enterprise software, but for small to medium sized web projects it's overkill.

I also have PHP projects which I built well over a decade ago that run perfectly fine today. Meanwhile in Node land it's not uncommon for projects just a few years old to stop working altogether because some package I was using is no longer maintained and hasn't been updated to support the latest version of node. And even when the project still runs the ecosystem tends to change so much that you have to do significant refactors every few months just to keep everything reasonably up-to-date. I think any JS developer can relate to the fact that a good chunk of your time working on JS projects is spent refactoring code because Gulp is no longer being maintained, or LibSass has been deprecated in favour of Dart, or because the community just decided that you need to use React hooks now...

But another reason I don't use Node is simply because JS sucks, even when compared to PHP < 7. It's a poorly designed language that requires multiple layers of tooling just to make it acceptable for use in larger projects. And again, when the ecosystem is changing so often any tooling you're using needs to be updated constantly.

But this isn't a rant about JS. I'm just wondering why in 2023 I seem to love PHP more than ever and the developer community broadly seems to be migrating more towards Node? Can someone explain why I'm wrong about this because when ever I tell any of my Java / Node colleagues that I love PHP they tend to roll their eyes.
Certainly they do, mine has 3 primary modes, either just go indefinitely, go indefinitely but ring a bell after a set time, or go for a set time. The easiest mode to get set up is "go indefinitely", so that's what we use the most. Time isn't a great sopping criteria for most baking anyways, probing the interior is much more reliable.
