It is really a combination of factors. No holds barred fighting in Brazil was very important. Not emphasizing standup wrestling / grappling and focusing on finishing a fight as part of a sport was not common. Judo/jujitsu had all the components of BJJ and even practitioners focusing on ground (ie Judoka that taught the Gracies). However, the agreed on rules of Judo focused more and more on standing techniques with rules ending a fight on throw to back, resulting in leaving behind many aspects of the ground game in Japan from years past.
> Unfortunately this is exactly the type of stuff that makes supporting commercial apps on linux a nightmare. Weird crashes due to weird linking of system libraries.

That is the true reason containers were born, isn't it? The kernel is perfect, the public interface of the kernel is perfect. Userspace is a mess. Let's fix it by adding a layer between and have a userspace per application.
this also matters if you do a lot of upserts on a table that are predominantly updates. postgres requests an id from the sequence for each row of the incoming data ahead of time since it doesn't know which rows are updates and which are inserts. the sequence doesn't reset down for the unused so this can eat through it unexpectedly quickly.

if you hit the max integer for the sequence and need space to implement a fundamental fix you can quickly change the sequence to start at -1 and go down. there's no issue with negative ids since they're also integers.

> have been a citizen for at least 14 years meaning one could leave the country for a while and at least age 35.

You don't lose your citizenship when you leave the country. You'd have to give up your American citizenship somehow, like Boris Johnson did. Hmm...he could actually move back here, become a US citizen again, 14 years later run for president, and be the first one to have lead both the UK and the US?

Edit: he just needs to have lived in the US for 14 years, not have been a citizen for 14 years. He would still probably need to re-establish his US citizenship before running (but the constitution isn't exactly clear if a natural born US citizen but not a US citizen now can run for president after living in the USA for 14 years; its unlikely to ever come up anyways).

Show HN: Getting the look for less with automated furniture comparison
I was recently designing my apartment. Often times, there'd be a style I loved, but the price would be insanely high. I discovered that reverse image search is a good way to find certain looks for less. But you don't always see relevant details, and it's super annoying to do this every time.

I'm building https://getscore.app to automate this process. The chair in the link is really expensive—but there are equally stylish, high-quality options from around the web. I've saved lots using this, and I hope you can too. Would love feedback on how to improve this!

Redis Internals: a thorough deep-dive
You do not need a process to write documentation. You do not need permission. Start writing things down as informally as possible. A company wiki is good, or in word documents that you put in the shared drive. When someone complains that the documents are not standardized, you give them the work of standardizing.

You can choose to not write down what the gatekeeper told you, but why would you choose that?

Completely ignorant here:

- I really want to do a project in an almost "pure" functional language. I tried with Elixir and Phoenix, and while they are certainly great, and I wouldn't mind using it again, Elixir, and subsequently Erlang didn't feel like FP a lot of times, it felt like the warty Elixir/Erlang way to do FP, so it didn't scratch that itch for me (but again, still a great experience overall)

- is there a way to do this openly? I.E. with dotnetcore, running on linux containers, no windows what so ever, etc? Guessing yes but wanted to make sure from people who have actually done it

- What exactly about the .NET libraries that has everyone so hyped up about? I remember from my C# .NET days, they always felt to be lacking.

Latin is the classical example of this. Pronouns are almost never used because they’re redundant. For example the latin conjugation of to be is

Sum, es, est, summus, estis, sunt

Nothing wrong with a thought-terminating idea. Some affirmations are useful if they terminate self-destructive or nonproductive thinking. Depends on one's goals, I suppose. If you're thought-terminating because the opposing or conflicting or disruptive idea is something you can't reason yourself out of, then it's premature thought-termination and intellectually lazy. If however you're stuck in some pattern of self-destructive thoughts, terminating them as soon as they crop up is beneficial for the psyche.

I think a columnar database can be super useful.

I use Postgres a lot, but with a largish database, I managed to get the whole database footprint in Clickhouse smaller than the primary key index in Postgresql. (~80GB vs 160GB, and 1.2 TB for the whole unencrypted PG database) Now, it wasn't a great index key and the original schema wasn't good, but optimizing PG got me about a factor of 3 or 4, and Clickhouse compression got me another order of magnitude.
If I had to pick one "beginner resource" for the absolute newbie then it's hard to beat the book "Mark Wilson's Complete Course in Magic." From there you can decide what interests you and thus where to go next, since magic is such a broad field.

One of the reasons I love it so much is that it is a multi-skill discipline and it's really a type of theatre so it can be kept as simple and narrow or as broad and open ended as you want it to be.

> It can literally be a simple task that one would expect any working software developer to be able to complete without too much fuss.

I agree, although this is why I feel a small project and participation in code review is a more realistic and useful gauge for real world ability.

Can the person understand the code base well enough to propose a sensible change, and how collaborative are they in the code review process? Do they document/comment their code, add tests, do they answer questions and take criticisms patiently, is the solution simple, does it work?

You'll learn about zero of these things watching them write a fizzbuzz in a shared editor window.

I completely agree with this. The timing of this AI hype cycle is very suspicious. Like almost as soon as crypto started to go bust with the collapse of FTX, all of the sudden, here's ChatGPT and a huge inflow of cash into AI startups.

My hot take (or maybe it's not that hot) is that post-Trump, and especially post-Jan 6, the general public has really soured on big tech. Combined with the smartphone and social media growth really slowing down, and now, non-zero interest rates, the industry is desperately searching for its "next big thing". Which is why these technologies, first crypto, and now AI, are in turbo mode and speed-running the hype cycle.

"I worked my ass off for this."

So did I. But having come up from very poor/working class, I also know that path was painful and I have enough means to live modestly and view that as a way to not be "screw you, I got mine" to the rest of society. And that's not just an empathy overdose. That's knowing even cynically, that if the overall larger number of people in the society around me who get even marginally improved outcomes makes same said society I choose to reside in likely to be more stable, resilient and less interrupt-driven.

That's a system investment instead of just being self-focused to the point of ignoring everything else (the latter eventually leads to 'everything else' imposing its collective will reactively otherwise)
Ask HN: Are there software jobs that involve zero web/networking?
I've had a weird realization in the last few years that I love programming/algorithms/optimization but I just hate dealing with the web/networking code.

There is so much stuff involved unrelated to the actual main code like random failures, retries, logging, monitoring, boilerplate, infrastructure, outages, cloud platforms etc...

I would love to work on something completely offline that is just contained within one computer or process for the most part. For example an offline tool or library that does something.

Nice work. One small suggestion: the centered text on the list of buttons is hard to skim. If you're not able to left-align text on buttons, perhaps present a numbered list, and let me type a number to proceed. Just a thought. But perhaps other people aren't as bothered by reading centered text.
The headline seems misleading:

> The results show a displacement rate of 40 per cent which means that for every ten recent top films watched illegally, four fewer films are consumed legally.

Remember that absence of evidence does not mean evidence of absence. The study seems to point at the first one. I don't care enough to be bothered with reading a 300 page report but if you consider taking it as truth, I would recommend you to read and analyse the method before drawing conclusions based on the headline.
There is a local school that is dedicating 90 minutes to math and 90 minutes to english. Splitting science and history to a mere 45 minutes each.

I completely support this. Science prior to college was basically a waste. History was full of bias and axes to grind.

Don't get me wrong, teach these subjects, the scientific method is great. However, the value is low compared to the tools given in Math and English.

This seems like a pretty big win, but could have some unintended side effects. Writing a summary of a bill is great to glean it's purpose at a high level. However, this isn't enough to make a decision, a bill could have hundreds of lines of text with real legal enforceable effect on citizen's rights. Every one of those lines is important so while this MIGHT help summarize all the "legalese" I'm not sure it will help us get simpler, more straightforward legislation.

On the positive side it could lead to people who never read bills to actually get some sort of summary they can read quickly. Caveat: I don't think it is fun or interesting read a 500-page farm bill, but also that is their job, so they have to do it or pass simpler bills.

On the negative side, it could lead to further crap being shoved into bills which lobbyists know won't be picked up by an AI-driven "bill-explainer" product.
The Imperativity of Algorithms
Are case and conjugation not other ways to express pronouns? Making the pronouns explicit is just a kind of error correction.

Also I have read that case (and conjugation?) may have come from particles like classifiers being absorbed into words (weird to think how that would work before written language, but whatever). In which case case and conjugation might literally reflect actual proouns.

There’s a huge difference between killing animals and eating their meat. Likewise there’s a world of difference between industrial scale livestock and smaller, organic, free-range farming - on many levels. Yes, animal slaughter is require for meat production, and by eating meat we contribute to said slaughter. But there’s a ton of nuance in between, and people know this.

It’s a really disingenuous argument to pretend these are exactly the same thing from an ethical standpoint. In Buddhist ethics, for example, intention is key: monks cannot kill an animal but they may eat meat if offered. People who cry about the moral or ethical basis of some decision often make uninformed arguments believing an issue is black and white. Ethics is gray all the way down.

I'd say they're more likely to use the official app, as that is what is advertised when people land on Reddit on mobile browsers.

The unofficial API-based apps also don't have a lot of the "features" of the official app like paid skins/avatars, live streaming and others. The younger gen seems to have adopted these more than the older gen, which consider it a tacked-on thing that doesn't really improve Reddit.

The fun part about this is that gravity has to either be self interacting or capable of propagating faster than light.

If gravity wasn't self interacting it wouldn't follow the shortest path that gravity itself creates. Light does follow this path. Gravity would move in different directions and at different velocities to light across the universe which is full of gravitational field if it wasn't self interacting. We have seen zero evidence that gravity does propagate differently to light. In fact ligo and other gravity experiments have only confirmed it's the same.

So gravity is almost certainly self interacting. What does this mean? Well it wouldn't change much at small scales. There's not enough effect at say planetary scales to really notice. But what happens when you have a field self interacting across vast distances and involving vast galaxy sized masses? Well your link looks at this and yes it matches some of the anomaly's we are at large scale.

It's a good theory and I suspect despite being hard to argue against it will face opposition since it means a lot of scientists were chasing a dead end.
The only thing that seems to separate Ikea from similarly priced stuff on Amazon is the fact that I've never had misaligned parts from Ikea. Their QA is top notch despite some of their cheap stuff being very flimsy. I buy from Ikea knowing that I probably won't need to return it or have to talk to some Chinese furniture factory about getting spare parts because some are missing or are so poor quality, they broke during install. Ikea is certainly cheap for some things so you should use wood glue if you want them to last, these are definitely not hierloom pieces.

I think, it's about the kind of fascination with an image that connects us to a greater narrative that is our identity. The notion that these generated images do fascinate, while connecting us to a non-existing narrative, is neither out of context nor just superficial, nor is so the exhibition of these images. The fascination emanating from these images (thanks to the transfer of textures and hints of authenticity) is pretty much the point, which is framed in a particular context, namely that of narratives and identities. I.e., we may be on the verge of a second colonialization, to repeat what colonial rewrite has done to local histories and identities.
