I was really confused for a solid second there. The points the author raises are what Rust tries to solve 1) A simpler build system 2) Safety guarantee by the compiler and not the programmer's "I am an experienced dev" etc

> Having code in a monorepo doesn't help if you don't check how your code changes affects consumers/clients of the code.

It most definitely does help with that because there's fewer places to look. But if you only look at your monorepo then you'll miss a lot of things if the API you're touching is public. In this case there were consumers in the same monorepo were there not?

The issue here is that someone dropped the ball on backwards compatibility. That happens, especially when the people involved are inexperienced.

> Having a limit of 5 million files is perfectly reasonable.

Is it? On this desktop I have 1.5 million files, "df -i" says I've used 1.1 million inodes and I have 61 million inodes free.

The 5 million file limit on Google Drive seems to be excessively low.

That's partially the joke. The other part is in the preceding sentences:

> C++20 brings us modules, an innovative new feature, and one I’m looking forward to actually being implemented fairly soon. Looking forward, C++26 will likely have stackful coroutines, the ability to embed binary file contents to initialize arrays, a safe range-based for loop, and many other goodies.

> By comparison, the pace of innovation in Rust has become more sedate.

The reason C++ is getting all these new features while Rust isn't is not Rust being held back by backwards compatibility, but that Rust has all those features already.

So he's basically saying: C++ is breaking backwards comparability to (eventually, years after the spec was published) bring us features that Rust already has.

> consider that everything the resume is supposed to do [...] is all stuff they are going to do again in phone screens, the interviews, and the reference checks

Not just things you need to do again, but they might even ask you to solve an arbitrary problem you've never seen before in 40 minutes, with someone watching and not helping, knowing your livelihood is on the line if you fail. And they have a hard rule that states you must create a working program, so even if you can express your ideas and make it very clear you'd get to a correct and efficient solution eventually, if it doesn't run in under 40 minutes, you're out. It's a mini coding competition, and you are set up to fail.

I recently got laid off from a job that actually boosted my resume quite nicely, the work made me a specialist that triggered several big name companies to reach out for this niche thing. I was told multiple times that I'd effectively passed 80% of the interview sessions, but their tests, for whether I'd been able to memorize all common algo approaches and my ability to regurgitate them in a short amount of time, were beyond my abilities.
I would have said not holding him accountable set the dangerous precedent already.

If you look at the timeline vis-a-vis Silvergate Capital, this does look very suspicious, possibly a Chokepoint 2.0

Timeline:

Nov 11: FTX/Alameda file BK.

Nov 28: Sen Warren, retired Sen Marshall send letter to Silvergate requesting all records relating to FTX. BlockFi files BK.

Dec 5: Deposits fall from $12B to $3.8B. Silvergate sells treasuries at $718M loss and take out FHLB loan for $4.3B to remain solvent and fully offramp depositors.

Dec 31: Silvergate reports 4Q loss of $1B.

Jan 5: Judge in FTX BK orders seizure of FTX assets at Silvergate.

Feb 8: DOJ announces investigation into Silvergate role in FTX AML/KYC failures.

Feb 14: Sen Warren-friendly Citadel reports 5.5% stake in Silvergate. In June Ken Griffin, CEO, announced he might like to be a crypto market maker.

Mar 1: Silvergate announces delay in annual report, says may not be able to stay in business.

Mar 2: Coinbase, Galaxy Digital drop Silvergate.

Mar 7: Silvergate says forced to pay $4.3B FHLB loan early which was the final nail in its coffin.

Mar 8: Silvergate announces liquidation although still solvent with assets exceeding liabilities of over $1B. Still, shares drop to $2 and a $48M market cap.

Mar 10: FHLB issues press release specifically denying it forced early repayment but "no comment" on whether usually automatic roll-forwards granted routinely were specifically excluded for Silvergate despite oral assurances they would be granted.

Mar 24: Silvergate stock doubles on rumors Citadel wants to acquire assets.

Mar 31: Sen Warren seen smiling while reading article on crypto bank collapses.

Feeling this also. I was considering making something similar that's more math oriented because it makes a huge difference having someone to talk about these ideas with. Math in particular can get pretty lonely sometimes!

Also just wanted to comment to OP that the site is really cool, feels quite polished. It's impressive that you're just 18 and you created such a cool and seamless experience. If you add mathematical topics (or create some way for users to add topics), I'll be a lot more likely to use it! Another suggestion would be to create some way for me to invite others to use the site -- some shareable link like "Join <user>'s study group!" not necessarily with that verbiage

I'll explain the joke, as it's subtle. Rust indeed has an explicitly stated backwards compatibility guarantee, which limits evolution of the language. One example of that is Range not being Copy because of some decisions taken early on; most people would agree that this was a mistake. There is an "edition" mechanism that allows some evolution, for example adding new keywords, but it can't solve everything.

C++, by contrast, has a tradition of maintaining backwards compatibility, but it is not enforced systematically, and in practice migrating to newer versions of C++ can be a painful process. Thus, in many application domains (especially embedded), developers are stuck on very old versions of the language. There's also a very sticky issue of whether binary (ABI) compatibility is guaranteed. There's nothing in the standards process that guarantees this, but there has been huge resistance to proposed improvements that break ABI. This was a particular sticking point for Google[1], as it affects unique_ptr, making it not so much the zero cost abstraction as originally hoped.

Language evolution is a difficult problem, and there is no magic, obviously correct answer to it. But I think Rust has a good, pragmatic approach, and the flaws such as Range are a very small part of the overall language surface area.

Modules are a particularly disruptive to the ecosystem. It's taking a long time to get them properly implemented in C++, and it also requires fairly major changes to code bases, build systems, and other infrastructure to migrate to them. By contrast, Rust has had a decent module system since 1.0 (with various tweaks and changes through the edition mechanism).

Edit: and as 'wongarsu says in a sibling comment, another part of the joke is that Rust doesn't need as much evolution as C++, as it already has a lot of the advantages such as a working module system.

For those who don't know, the Chemin Saint Jacques (or Camino de Santiago, or Way of Saint James) is a pilgrimage route (or rather a network of pilgrimage routes) which goes all the way to Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain.

Spam is about repeatedly sending the same content when it adds no value to the audience. It doesn't matter how well you phrase it, or whether the product itself is decent. It is about respecting your audience. When you get banned for your content that is a clear message that the audience in not interested in your content. When you then work around the bans to keep re-posting that content, as OP did, that is absolutely spam.

So you are correct - Show HNs are content for which HN has an appetite. OPs content might be received just fine as a 'Show HN'. But on reddit, with the way they approached it, it is spam.
What did they learn though? They can't possibly know why I'm not interested in that tweet, because there's just not enough information. So all they'll do is stop showing me tweets from that one person. No way to express "yeah I'm interested in his tweets about music, not gardening." The problem is that mostly following people means that you can't teach the algorithm about your particular interests.

Topics are better, but there doesn't seem to be a way to make sure your tweet ends up in a particular topic. Again, you have to pray to The Algorithm that it will label tweets correctly. And if your particular interest isn't a Topic, you're out of luck.
haha, i’m glad you reminded me today is april fools day. i was getting quite irritated reading this.

Surprisingly no mention of Barry Lyndon, for which Kubrick had special cameras/lenses designed so he could film scenes lit by candlelight without extra lighting. That movie plays like series of paintings.
> The technology hasn't changing anything.

I don't agree with this. Sure, things like VFX have existed to augment the experience of movies and other types of content over the years, but these were large-scale commercial projects that only a few could afford.

We're now reaching the point where anyone can create video content that humans aren't able to discern is real or not, and that is unprecedented. Video is an extremely powerful medium that has driven entire movements. For example, BLM wouldn't have happened without the world watching a video of a cop publicly murdering George Floyd.

There's something about seeing video evidence of heinous things happening that drives people to act more than simply reading op-eds or listening to interviews, largely because it's more viscerally stimulating.

We can't know until generative AI has proliferated and fully integrated into society to know whether or not it's changing how we think or behave.
Interesting — I hear that repeated sometimes, but it always turns out that the person stating that opinion is an Excel expert and barely looked at anything else.

Having used Excel, Numbers, OpenOffice (since back when it was still StarOffice), and Google Sheets, I find it to be a mixed bag. For example, there are certain things which Numbers does way better (drag&drop rows to reorder them, for example) and I personally prefer it for my work. But most importantly, I haven't found Excel to be "way above the rest" at all.
I agree that companies will probably just do more but my point was that managers are not safer than other jobs. It is linked to the jobs they manage and a large part of their day to day can also be automated.

>It's not about what I personally believe or think is unfair. It's about what Republicans (broadly speaking) believe.

No, it is about what Twitter believes. That was what I was referring to with point 2 in my original comment. Not every customer complaint is valid. It is ok to hear a complaint and dismiss it without further investigation. Twitter doesn't have some obligation to get all of society to think its rules are fair.

It is fine for a company to tell some potential customers to "fuck off" as long as that company isn't discriminating against a protected class. Twitter isn't discriminating against a protected class here.

If Twitter thinks misgendering people is wrong, it is impossible to come to an agreement with a group that think properly gendering people is wrong without Twitter compromising its own morals. Twitter is allowed to stick to its own morals and tell the people who disagree to "fuck off".
A new programmer can just use a git UI like the Github app. It abstracts everything away and leaves you with the obvious benefit of being able to commit a succession of snapshots that represent logical groupings of changes.

I haven’t used cli git since uni. GUI is better for basically everything except for a few rare and advanced commands.
It was great even when I, and a bunch of people, got food poisoning from a caterer one year.

>If one of the defining characteristics of a political/religious/cultural group is having a particular ethical view, then enforcing a contrary ethical view against them is disadvantaging them and discriminating against them.

I don't think misgendering people is a "defining characteristic" of Republicans and if that is, the Republican Party is in a pretty sad state considering all the bigger problems in the world. And if that qualifies as a "defining characteristic", there are plenty of other counter examples of society accepting discrimination as you define it. Banning polygamy would be discriminatory against Mormons is one. You could even argue that a full abortion ban is discriminatory against Jewish people.

>some jurisdictions also have laws against discrimination on the basis of political belief.

Notably not in the US where Twitter is based and were most of these complaints originate.

There is no such thing as a fully autonomous vehicle. There are only highly autonomous vehicles that require a human to be present in the case of an emergency, ie trains.

We are talking past each other. You are claiming that cardiovascular diseases and other factors are more important to the US having a lower life expectancy than all these other countries. But not in the age range that is the main thrust of the thread we are in, 5 to 40 years old. The first graph you posted is a bunch of counterfactuals on the aggregate life expectancy, suggesting that the overall impact of these early deaths are almost as significant as cardiovascular diseases, which is astonishing.

I think you are confused about this because you also brought up child mortality. Yes, child mortality is also much higher in the US than other developed countries. But we knew that. The article is focusing on less discussed yet very impactful factors which disproportionally impact young people in the US.
