I've been using C++ a lot lately after many years away. There are different kinds of frustration. With C++ my frustration is the "this is so close to being awesome" variety, not the "wow, this just sucks" variety.

Pip certainly does install plenty of non-python dependencies, but also leaves to the system package manager many of the things managed by conda.

I don't know if there's a good definition for "in practice the standard" but I think conda is a heap of shit and I wish people would use it less.
I'm Chinese. I'm not commenting on Russia but please keep China out of "trivially easy to prove that the West is better for its own citizens". Chinese citizen have been found to be far more satisfied with their government and their future prospects than for example the US. This "propaganda"-sounding fact is even something found by western institutions such as Harvard, York University and Democracy Perception Index! Even here in the Netherlands, Chinese diaspora that I know and that have come here in the past 10-15 years are very positive about China. In China, police don't wear guns, and women can safely walk on the streets during the night — something which you can't say about many western countries.

Of course China still has many of its own problems. But the cartoonish notion that it's some sort of totalitarian police state dictatorship where everybody wants to flee from is propaganda. China and the west both have their own problems and their own strong points.

I think Rust is probably great for certain types of projects that need effecient programs but the main problem I have always had is not having enough time and Rust does the reverse for me in that regard.

It is hard to learn and takes quite some time to write compared to many other popular languages. For what benefit? Most languages are fast enough and the bugs I encounter is not bugs that Rust solves. I do web dev stuff, like I would assume most of us do, and the performance bottlenecks are pretty much never due to the language being too slow.

Granted, I understand completely why large companies that work on complex systems have a use case for Rust, the main issue I have with the community is that it tries to sell itself as a solution to everything when in reality the most likely scenario for most of us is that we would be more productive and successful in basically any other language.
I didn't see any part of the post where he blamed Ukraine for being invaded. There was a passage where he stated he can't publicly support either side because he has friends (family?) on both sides, but that's all I read.

The manslaughter came as a shock, yes, and I think there's more to that story than he's telling us. He probably isn't a great human being.

None of that, however, is relevant to the fact that maintaining core-js in particular and FOSS in general is a thankless and awful job.

It's possible to support FOSS, and support remuneration for FOSS, without supporting specific individuals.
Also Haskell is getting linear types, which gets us the best of both worlds, GC productivity and low level performance when needed.
So, after many years of Russian aggression outside their own borders, the Ukrainians, by defending themselves, could start WW3? Maybe he's been smoking those funny cigarettes again.

For our org, it isn't the PC, it is the org controlling Teams and the firewall.

They have Teams configured somehow, that none of the subsidiaries can talk to each other, you can't talk to outside people or invite them, and the performance is really bad due to the way the clients and firewall are configured.

I'm guessing lots of orgs are in the the same boat because Teams is newer than Zoom, Web Ex, or Go to meeting, and for these legacy meeting clients the PCs, firewall, and org has had time to optimize for them.

Teams is more of an afterthought because it comes with 365.
Aye, but it is unlikely that a consultant will actually be able to articulate these issues better than someone who has _successfully_ worked in the industry and solved these problems (in contrast to your reverbalization of deadwood as domain priests). Unless, of course, the consultant has worked _successfully_ in the industry for a good length of time. But the class of consultants discussed have not. All squares go this way, all pegs go that way, never shall the twain meet.
It's a misconception that people hate him for being rssian. It's more like people dislike finding a consistent genocide apologist who has been publicly supporting the mass murderers for many years. This is a systemic position of his. In his late post he suggests that the murdered Ukrainians are somehow the same as the ruscist rapists who killed them. In the past he was shifting the blame for the rssian fascist ethnical cleansing to Ukraine as well:
https://twitter.com/TheLarkInn/status/1625276917363646465.
This does correlate with the color of his passport but it's just that — a correlation. His actions speak louder than words. Encouraging people to send him money equals indirectly funding the genocidal maniacs. Don't fund the terrorists, it's as simple as that.
> Then there's more power unlocked by giving dimensions/units to your types/instances. For instance, overloading the division operator in a class representing length so that when dividing length by time, you get speed. Or, one could overload addition/subtraction in classes representing a currency so that trying to add ¥100 to $100 raises an exception.

I sometimes even go one step further and use specific types for dimensionless factors in financial calculations, such as specific types for the rates of different kinds of taxes. This way I get a compiler error, when I am trying to use the wrong type of tax rate in a calculation.

Working in Europe I have never been a member of a union but enjoy plenty of the achievements fought over in previous decades. Right now my strong market position as someone in a sought after field and with some experience under my belt I am able to negotiate an individual contract that exceeds collective bargain agreements (that's possible in most companies here).

Members of my immediate family don't have that luxury. They are hardworking and diligent people at physically demanding jobs. Yet they get treated way worse than I in my cushy office job.

Individually they don't have much bargaining power but as a group they can get a better outcome and negotiate eye to eye with business owners. It makes sense to carry a few underperformers with you if the benefits outweigh the costs.

In the end market realities still require the company to make a profit or nobody gets paid. But there is no reason why workers/unions shouldn't demand a greater share of that profit.

Look at almost any German International company for a working examples. All Auto manufacturers are heavily unionized and still manage to be innovative and make a very healthy profit. During the Euro crisis in 2008 Unions and business owners worked together to reduce hours and workforce because everyone understood the dire situation.
What post-colonial narrative does BBC spew? If you see BBC regional languages programs, you will see that it platforms RSS-BJP's Hindu Nationalistic rhetoric to a far greater degree.
1. "Muslims and Hindus have found peace since the event"

2. "An equivalent list could be made, just with the numbers of 400k Hindus that were exodus in Kashmir."

Thanks for proving my point.

[Edit]

"Muslims and Hindus have found peace since the event"

"In November 2022, at an election rally in Khambhat [Gujarat], Indian Home Minister Amit Shah boasted of demolitions undertaken by the BJP in Muslim areas. By emphasizing the issue of clearing out alleged `fake mazars (Islamic shrines or mausoleums)`
[...]
Salma Ben, 50, a resident of Akbarpur, has suffered for simply being a Muslim in Khambhat more times than she can remember. In February 2019, she recalled for The Diplomat, her house was burned down by a violent mob chanting Hindu mantras."

The BBC office in Delhi at the Hindustan Times building employs 200+ people, including many UK staff on temporary attachment. It massively expanded in 2016 but it dates back far longer.

I wouldn't be confident that every piece of equipment in that office was obtained legally in the country, let alone being able to prove it. For example someone whose mobile phone got lost/smashed/blownup last time they were in Kabul, so they bought a new one, then returned to their Delhi office. Or a piece of equipment that was legally imported back in 2012 but the paperwork has gone. Or a UK purchased harddrive that a passing cameraman left in the edit suite, or something bought locally but the receipt didn't list the serial number on it.

I'm confident there will be an "irregularity" somewhere. I'm confident any office in any building in any city in the world will have similar problems irrefutably proving where any equipment came from.
All true! I almost lost a friend in that crowd crush and there's no way to turn around and go against the crowd. They've set it up for a one way crush of human bodies.

You are right that gardens are phenomenal. My favorite thing was Les Bains d'Apollon[0]. I don't even like sculpture and its one of the most magnificent things I've ever seen in my life. Gorgeous marble and a waterfall around it. Truly a hidden gem out there in the garden.

My high school in Virginia started classes at 7:20am. It meant I had to be at the bus stop at 6:50am, and that meant getting up at 6am if I wanted to eat breakfast.

As someone who had a night owl tendency and a distinct interest in computers, I ended up staying up late most nights. I'd get 4 or 5 hours of sleep and it was never enough. In 10th grade I just gave up on school because I saw no value in the torture of getting up that early for classes I learned nothing in anyway.
I don't think you're Stockholm Syndromed, but I definitely think you're lacking in empathy. Think about it this way -- do you think you have been always productive and reliable, 100% of the time?

If not (let's say, 5% of the time you weren't), then you were the the unproductive or unreliable coworker, possibly due to factors in your life that you could not control. The idea of a union is that it insulates you from being instantly punished for factors you might not be able to control a little better than the market is doing right now. Look for news about new parents who were part of the layoffs recently.

Out of "individual performance and developing personal relationships", the "developing personal relationships" part of the equation is slowly fading. When was the last time you got a job purely on the basis of your personal relationships without having to jump through hoops to show your skills?

I am a little hesitant about unions too, but I'm at least willing to give them a chance based on the hack-and-slash behavior from industry leaders seeking to please their investors.

Have you seen the margins on businesses old enough to be owned by heirs? They're only "siphoning off" a few percent.

Edit: I misunderstood. I thought the complaint was that the heirs were taking a lot of created wealth from each worker. Not simply that they were wealthy.

The price for immutability is pretty high. Haskell garbage collection has a lot of work to do.

When you say 'algorithms would look better' this is pretty subjective. Graph based algorithms or inplace algorithms doesn't look too good in haskell.

Ask HN: Why are article titles so hard to read now?
am i having a stroke or is this some new literary technique to have opaque titles that make you think first? just be direct and say the fucking thing in the title.
The term has limits of course. It mainly transports an idea which resonates with a lot of people. For that it is useful.

For now I believe it to be constructive to refocus on a very real concern that some want to dictate the boundaries of thought. Just out of fear in many cases, but that too isn't a good reason to limit expression.

The term isn't diplomatic or useful to find any consensus. But surely to satirize some authoritarian developments that move backwards instead of forward.

For serious discussion? Perhaps a more diplomatic approach would be better, but I wouldn't want false compromises in what I believe has partially transformed into a religion.
Kids are much less technically capable these days. They grew up with iPads. They wouldn’t know a COM port from a hole in the ground. It will get bypassed for sure, but it’s not nuclear secrets. It’s enough to make it inconvenient for your average person.
> It's images/video of kids being raped, the continued existence and trading of which can be argued to do continuing harm to the victims.

I don't think that's what the author is saying. They say that IF any real world kids are involved in the "production" of the video, the image is illegal (have a bad "colour"). Nobody disagrees with that, especially not the author of that blog post. This is contrasted with drawn or rendered images that were created in a computer graphic program.

> Or about how nobody is harmed if streams of bits get passed around, it's just data, ones and zeroes, that's not harming anyone. Or that the data is encoded, so it's meaningless without a decoder, a different decoder could decode that bitstream into literally anything else.

That's exactly what the author is arguing againts - he says that this is a naive interpretation of computer person, that makes no sense to a lawyer (in his words: color is not a function of bits).

I think CSAM is too sensitive topic to use it an example (today, maybe 20 years ago it was different). So my version of that example for 2023: watching and distributing (adult) rape videos is morally abhorrent and often illegal. But porn websites are full of staged rape videos. It's not about the content of the video, but its source (colour).

...that was my explanation of the thought process of the author. As he mentions, not everyone agrees with that interpretation in that context.
This guy should approach the OpenJS Foundation [0] (previously it was the JQuery Foundation). It's sponsored by the big guys. There are a few more Open Source Foundation he can approach.

Could be that successfully funded OS projects are being maintained/leaded by charismatic guys? Those that can do marketing and get the project known and eventually get fundings. e.g.: tailwind, jquery, vue, sveltekit

Russia stretches from the West to the East but the vast majority of life happens in a very small vertical part of the most Western flank of Russia, which is why I actually consider Russia ethnically and culturally to be part of the West, just stuck in a horrible past.

I would love to see a statistic where China has more military casualties than let's say the USA, in total numbers and in % of population I think the USA will exceed China, not least because the USA has been at war ever since I'm alive, China, well not so much.

I'm not going to go down this rabbit hole with you. You can select metrics which will "prove" that the West cares more about its people than China or other Asian countries and equally you can pull metrics which will unequivocally "prove" the opposite. This is precisely what I meant in my original comment.
This is an ethically neutral activity. The mere act of transforming a device into such a computer doesn't add or remove any nefarious goals, if you have those goals, you can get another device intended to be a Linux computer and still accomplish them (and it would be much easier). If the transformation is done in contravention of the owner, it's bad, but it sounds like from the article that the ISP has written it off and in any case, they say they are doing this nondestructively.
1) Supply is constrained (by the war and sanctions), demand is fixed to rising, so price goes up.

2) Price goes up

2 a) Demand remains the same or increases (we're talking about energy so demand will always be increasing)

2 b) there is more demand for alternatives, including dirty ones (coal) but also green ones (solar, wind, etc).

3) Businesses see an opportunity for higher returns

3 a) Increased investment in fossil fuel energy sources to take advantage of the higher prices. Wells with dirtier oil that were idle are brought back online because they are profitable, higher cost extraction gears up like tar sands.

3 b) Increased investment in green energy sources to take advantage of higher energy prices.
(author here) We use the device instead of a Raspberry Pi, not for anything too serious: we attached it to a screen and have a small server running with an API where you can write single pixels into the framebuffer (a bit like /r/place)
There are some arguments to be made they didn't break enough.

For example:

- I think they bungled the Unicode transition by being too dogmatic and it took them a few point releases to include some quality of life improvements for migration that really allowed legacy libraries to transition

- the GIL dependency didn't go away

- typing was added later

Python 3 would have been a huge jump with those changes. Instead, Python 3.0 was very interesting but a major annoyance for limited benefits to 99% of Python app devs.

Same here. I appreciate the projects like OpenWRT that make this kind of thing possible for mere mortals like me. I flashed OpenWRT onto an old Verizon combo DSL modem/router[0] and now it's a VPN endpoint. I think the most complicated part was uploading the initial firmware via TFTP. But it looks like you can now just use the web interface, so it's even easier. Props to the people who figure this stuff out and make it available.

here in Canada (and many other western countries)
we have the same awful hours but without the same
insane level of obsession with school sports as in the US

I've followed hockey rather closely for many decades, and respectfully, wow.

The stories I've read about youth hockey seem absolutely mental to me. Kids staying with other families (billets) hundreds of miles from home just to play hockey, etc. Bullying, abusive coaches, etc. Rampant sexual assaults. Of course many kids (the vast majority, I'm sure) have healthy experiences too.

This is not to say that either the US or Canada are better than the other in this regard, but it always seems to me that they were cut from similar cloth.

Talking about the US' "obsession with school sports" made me laugh. Usually we're painted as a sedentary nation of morbidly obese children. But apparently we're also obsessed with playing sports. Maybe Hollywood is to blame; we've all seen countless movies where the entire school is obsessed with some football game or whatever.

All I can really say is that school sports teams are completely optional. Most kids don't even participate or even care.
I like to think the government is just incompetently responding to a useless propaganda piece. But the so called documentary could very well be a well timed attack to benefit the more palatable opposition to the current government that has embarassed the West in not immediately bending over backwards in Ukraine war. Or this ridiculous response from the government could actually be a way to bring the Hindu far-right back into the fold since it is not happy with the current government. (The "fascist government" thing really is propaganda btw.)
Dataclasses are nice but they have a big downside: extending a dataclass with a default property can raise an error.

If you run this code:

import dataclasses

@dataclasses.dataclass
class Base:
a: int
b: int = 1

@dataclasses.dataclass
class Child(Base):
c: int

Then you'll get this error:

TypeError: non-default argument 'c' follows default argument
"What do you use Haskell for?"

Most important question about Haskell
All of the visual and hierarchical information abstracted away for visual users in a website that conveys information.

Abstracted visual semantic clues:

* the type of data in said div

* the indentation

* the typography

* the animations

the layout on the page

* the interactivity
with touch and mouse and keyboard events

These clues arw completely lost to blind users. Semantic attributes can help build up that hierarchical information for non-visual users. And yes, the name of a division is semantic information. It serves the purpose of defining an identifier for a section of a document, much like the title of the list above.
In case author is reading this: your spam filter is bad and you should feel bad. I lost my 30-line message to you. Thanks.
This is true. Though I believe GHC is pretty aggressive about unboxing (when posible), but don't quote me on that.

Another possible gotcha is that by default Haskell records introduce a named accessor function into the surrounding scope. So defining two records with a `name` field next to each other is an error
