I always come back to eMacs at least once a year, fall in love with some of the functionality, then rediscover that every package only works for 80% of my use cases and requires extensive configuration, and after spending hours customising it I have a slightly inferior product to any other IDE because a) some things still don’t work and b) nobody works with eMacs, so there is zero interop. Too bad..

“The Japanese Did It” is not the correct answer to “Who Killed Prolog?”. Prolog was killed by the failure in the early 1980s of mainstream AI researchers to find out about Prolog, by their willingness to play along with the “appropriate responses” to FGCS, and by their use of FGCS’s failure as an excuse for continued neglect of a promising alternative to Lisp.

My nowhere Alma Mater (a state school) has been building new buildings nonstop and tearing down affordable student housing to replace it with student housing that costs at least double. They allow professors to assign books that are bundled with homework software licenses that only work for a month (you have to buy the book to get the code, you can't get a used book and new software). And tuition continues to climb as well.

They are also introducing graduate and PhD programs which they do not have professors qualified to teach because graduate students will pay more than undergrads will.
Just the other day I searched how to add back the recently removed Downloads, Documents, etc folders to "This PC" in explorer in Win 11, and found an article like this [0]

I'm very curious now if I can also add any of these shortcuts in the same way in that part of explorer, and also what other unique ways one can use these other than regular shortcuts.

All kidding aside, it's obvious that Hickey is not entirely anti-OOP. But then, that's not what I said; I said he was "anti-inheritance".

And my complaint is that unlike many other places in Clojure, there's no easy escape hatch for inheritance when you need it. `proxy` is limited, and `gen-class` involves AOT compilation, which can cause various problems.
If you buy something for a million dollar you are buying an asset.

But if you make an employment contract with somebody it is totally unknown what is the value you are or will be getting out of the employee. You are not buying an "asset" because you can not own an employee. They can quit any time.

That’s just bad management. High quality work that doesn’t actually move the business needle is almost the same as if people didn’t even come in at all.

That said managing a large organization is extremely hard. I don’t think most companies have the overall business dynamics to sustain a large company where teams can do things that don’t matter. Usually those companies, which there are a lot in the tech world, have something else going on (no product market fit and too much cash) that leads to those symptoms
The ESP too small? It's just a partition and filesystem. Of course an ancient filesystem, but I don't think there are any relevant limits. I routinely use ESPs of 1 GB on my R&D systems so it can hold enough images for testing purposes.

I had the problem on NUC10 that it doesn't want to boot images around 100 MB. No problem with around 70 MB. Figures from memory, could be slightly lower. We routinely use systemd-boot, I'd guess it was also in that experiment. Or maybe not? Good point, I would need to try again. Either way we did not end up buying NUC10 for production, so I just made a note to myself that UEFI implementations might have size limits. On another implementation we boot the same size without issues.

Yes, I read the UKI postings when they came. And Lennart spoke about it at FOSDEM again this year, IIRC. Certainly something to look into "when I have time".

This seems like it would be more resource demanding on the load balancer to manage that queue? If that's a single queue it's global state... if you partition it, well, that's just push-based load balancing moved inside your "outer" load balancer?

The latency of round-tripping "finished a request, give me another" is probably also best-case ever so slightly worse than "finished one of my requests, loading the next from the buffer" (the HTTP load balanced apps I've worked on have had request queues on the workers too (framework-level, usually)).

Moreso if you had multiple load balancers involved...

Is it actually reasonable to expect compiler toolchains to work on old or underpowered hardware? Or is the real problem that cross-compilation is still a special case, rather than being the only way compilers work? If it wasn't still normal to depend on your target environment being the same as your build host, would anyone really want to do serious development work directly on their RPi/Gameboy/watch/whatever, just because that is the target runtime environment?

It sounds like Canada is trying to make it as easy as possible for companies to set up shop in Canada.

Personally, even incorporating in Canada is so much easier. A federal corporation just costs $100 to make, and even less to maintain annually. (In contrast, in the United States, an LLC set up through Stripe Atlas costs $500, and you have an annual recurring fee $300 owed to Delaware + registered agent fees.)
Well, that and also doctors can walk around patients they are examining, e.g. auscultation of the lungs on the back.
"explicit goal of automating away the middle class, after they've finished automating away the poor."

What is happening is a new "lesser-human" is being created. Something that is enslaved to these corporations and doing it's work without freedoms. This is the same thinking as slavery. But now it's if you can't treat actual humans as slaves, might as well create humanoids that you own and enslave them.
The US doesn't really have a (consistent) grid system outside of cities, with the notable exception of Utah (due to planning efforts by the Mormon pioneers). And even in cities it can be a mess. For example Seattle grew from three different smaller areas that all planned their roads to be parallel to the coast. The problem is the coast isn't in a straight line so as they grew and combined into a single city it created a lot of awkward intersections where the roads meet.

Thanks for the explanation - interesting link. The same sort of rigidity appears in functional programming styles, where is bound more tightly into the data definition. I'm thinking about the sum types in Haskell for example, where the programmer can make a rigid definition of the boundary that you are describing and then it is reflected in the structure of the code that manipulates the types.

There is an algebraic similarity between Horn clauses, BNF grammar clauses (if you consider concatenation and choice to be operators) and sum types. After working in logic programming, functional programming and imperative styles I would agree that the rigid definition part makes it easier to write the code that will sit on top, even if that code is far less rigid.
Peter Hintjens wrote a lot of different protocols in https://zguide.zeromq.org/docs/chapter4/#Service-Oriented-Re... and they mostly are part of the spec https://rfc.zeromq.org/spec/18/ now.

Some of these protocols are a good improvement when looking for the ultimate in speed and I used them where applicable, but as a first order approximation a simple load balancer approach is quite good enough. Especially when you do not have dedicated people vested in that domain for maintenance.

> That’s just bad management. High quality work that doesn’t actually move the business needle is almost the same as if people didn’t even come in at all.

I mean, it's worse, IME, it usually slows down the rest of the org.

But it is worth mentioning in the discussion of "why should I care if my employer does great or not when there's no direct reward in it for me" - otherwise you could just wave that whole question away with "that's just bad management" more generally. Yet it's mathematically implausible to suggest that everyone can escape bad management; some number of managers are going to be subpar, so the situation remains relevant to people.
It doesn't matter whether slavery would have been abolished, because what wouldn't have been legally enshrined without the Constitution were the 14th, 15th, and 24th amendments (and later civil rights laws that finally gave power to these amendments), and possibly the 19th amendment.

Google Scientific Research and Experimental Development. Personally I am not a fan of this system because I believe it distorts incentives and crowds out private investment.

AWS Lambda + API gateway + S3 + cloudfront

Medical tourism to Uruguay sounds fantastic to me!
Me too. On a Netgear r7800 (which is well supported for Openwrt). After much testing, tweaking/changing settings/etc I couldn't get OpenWRT to match the performance of latest stock OEM firmware.

Even wired performance was about 3/4 of stock OEM for my 500MB internet speed. I couldn't use any of the cool anti-bufferbloat QOS options in OpenWRT because that made wired performance even worse (despite getting A+ on bufferbloat tests, the bandwidth loss wasn't worth it). WiFI 5G was spotty and less distance in my house plus would randomly just stop for 30 seconds every few hours.

I really wanted an open source firmware running on my consumer grade router and truly appreciate all the developers hard work that goes into OpenWRT - but nothing has changed unfortunately from my similar experience a few years ago with a supported Asus Router I had and tried OpenWRT on.

The consumer-grade router market is a mess and the choices are only between cheap mass market brand names and crappy firmware that is lucky to even be upgraded at all after a year or two. It must be a very unprofitable market because despite many millions of units sold each year and attempts like Ubiquity, etc none have taken off and/or put out anything better than other cheap unreliable stuff as the other brand names.

I would LOVE a ROBUST reliable and supported consumer grade router/wifi brand that isn't calling their higher-end products "gaming". Like what we had when Cisco owned Linksys and we got their WRT line, or Netgear had a "pro" line that was metal cased. They supported their firmware for years and shared open-hardware specs to we could have better 3rd party firmware's as well. I still have a metal-cased Netgear GB switch in use at a client for probably 10 years now!

"free slaves of another race"? Some of those going to war were people of that race. On both sides.

This is also a bit ahistorical as Lincoln was willing to allow slavery in order to keep the union. It was really the south who chose to go to war in order to guarantee slavery would stay; the north chose to go to war in order to keep the union. The slavery issue was used by the north, initially, to keep the anti-slavery UK from siding with the south.

This doesn't increase the tax burden. After 5 years, most companies will be back to paying what they are paying now. This gives you a cash boost for this year and next few ones. After that, you just killed bootstrapped companies.
This can not stand. We are an innovation nation. Job-creation requires that employing people does not increase your tax burden. It should do the opposite.
