Earth-Mars will be a store and forward network not unlike the old UUCP or BBS networks like FidoNet. You will send blobs of data via something that probably looks like a replicated S3 bucket and get notified when replication of an object has occurred.

IP is usable to the Moon but a lot of protocols would need latency constants adjusted and very large packets would be desirable. Store and forward with custom replication protocols might still be more efficient for large volumes of data.
That's IP (and ICMP for ping), not TCP.

In this blog, we’ll explore how continuous deployment (CD) can help you enhance your CI pipeline and release software faster and with more confidence. Building on the concepts covered in our previous post, “Accelerate Development with Jenkins Pipelines and Continuous Integration,” we’ll delve into the benefits of CD and how it can be integrated with your existing pipeline using Jenkins.
People really struggle writing simple essays. It takes a lot of work externalizing words from your own context inside your mind so that the sentences can be understood by themselves. It’s one of the reasons we used to teach “word problems” in our mathematics classes alongside composition, but now we just want to compute arbitrary answers.

R is king for analysis of tabular data e.g. data exploration, model fitting, and visualizations where all the code can be contained in one .R file.

R not as good as other languages for production-level work though or for analyzing non-tabular data (e.g. streaming data, or data in unstructured formats).

I also find R packages (writing, installing, documenting) to be a better experience than the python packaging system. i.e., very little rewrite necessary to convert a bunch of R code into an R package.
Maybe you mean 'static' calls?

Depends on the context but in most cases these are a convenience, syntactic sugar.

Take SendOrderToVendor::dispatch($order)->onQueue('orders'), for example.

This could also be written as:

$job = new SendOrderToVendor($order);

$job->dispatchOn('orders');

Well, the comment you are answering to reacted to your comment saying "The conclusion is that most people simply prefer not to".

I agree that the argument made in the article is a strawman argument: no wanting to live in a kibbutz should not be equated to not wanting to live in a socialist society.

I even wonder how many people with a socialist party membership lived in kibbutz at the period of this article, which would demonstrate that this assertion is ridiculous. As this article implies that kibbutz where promoted by the government, I would say that the government was pro-socialism, and if it was an elected government, it would show that a majority of the population is pro-socialism and yet does not want to live in kibbutz. I wonder how many socialist politicians at the time did not even lived in kibbutz, demonstrating the logical flaw of the argument.

But I also disagree with your argument "laissez-faire ideal is an environment where if X does not take off, it means X is a bad idea or is not wanted". It's like saying "you can choose to be a wolf or a sheep, and in this pen, you have a laissez-faire ideal, and we observe that the majority prefer to be wolves, so it's the proof that a sheep pen is a bad idea". No, it means that as soon as there is a laissez-faire that allow wolves eating sheep, it's better to be a wolf even if your ideal was to be a sheep.

These things have limits, definitely. In almost every use-case I've tried, I've bumped up against them.

The trick is to know what they can and can't do, and use them where they're useful enough.

Someone here on HN quipped that ChatGPT is "isn't intelligent" because it couldn't come up with a revolutionary new battery chemistry.

Like... what are you expecting? A god?

LLMs are useful when you can validate the output yourself. Similarly, they're useful when the output doesn't have to be precise but the inputs are English.

For example, they're awesome "filters" for human input as measured against human metrics. "Is the following text rude? Output YES or NO only?" is very useful and works well enough, right now.

They're also useful when you need to iterate to find something, or when your search parameters are incredibly vague but have a narrow Venn diagram intersection.

I've been using ChatGPT as a replacement for the /r/tipofmytongue sub-Reddit. It knows everything well enough to be able to interactively find what I'm looking for to an extent that is super-individual-human, and in some ways beyond what even a very large collection of humans can achieve.

The magic in these frameworks is evil, and likely a big part in ruining PHP's reputation. Laravel in particular hides way too much stuff behind magic, and when it goes wrong you find yourself sifting through OOP-obfuscated layers of framework and libraries just to find out how exactly your controller is called.
I've made the point before that I don't even use a spell checker so there is a deep sense in which I agree with this, but it is tempered by the recognition that I'm hardly the sharpest tool in the box and I get great purchase from my doodles, scribbles and other "outsourced" mental facilities.

I think that for most of us, the mental outsourcing optimum which makes you most capable is probably not the one which maximally enhances and preserves the capacities you have.

Zipping Up the Lambda Architecture for Faster Performance
"One prominent advantage of Lambda architecture is the stability it provides. However, in our case, the processing of real-time data and offline data sometimes intertwines. Such interaction becomes a root cause of instability. Thus, instead of pooling real-time and offline data after they are fully ready for queries, we use an OLAP engine to share part of the pre-query computation burden and make things faster, simpler, and more cost-effective."
Why isn't this a snap-on extra monitor for common sized monitors? Make it vesa compatible or something - sounds like it needs twin connections for everything anyway.

I kinda wish Google supported this better - they should make a new flow for opensource/free software where an oauth dialog is shown where the user is asked if the application can do billable things - and obviously the consent dialog would allow you to choose how much, if anything, you want to spend on API requests.

This lets opensource and free/hobby projects use all google API's with the actual users footing the bill directly. And obviously most uses are only a cent or two, so will normally fall in free allowances.

I wouldn’t have thought I had anything beyond normal hearing in quiet environments.

IPv6 is waiting on stubborn cloud networks and CDNs. Most of the edge now has it. My guess is that it’s mostly reluctance to introduce complexity when most customers are not asking for it. The biggest holdouts seem to be connected to Microsoft, with GitHub being one of the most relevant.

Digitization is definitely enormously empowering in principle. You could indeed imagine that it might enable a sub-culture of super-literate people. But in practice after 50 years of tech hyperventilation the only nuance we've added to Phoenician script is... emoji.

Amazing things will come, but not as fast as we might like them. The digital space is gigantic but we are exploring it at a snail's pace. The reason is not very different from the barriers linked to writing and math: people need to train their brains to code and it doesn't come cheap or easy.

Imagine if 8 billion people would actually be able to code. Would there be room for "big tech"? The digital conversation might be very different.

Right now we are roughly (in digital age chronology) circa 3000 BC, the dawn of organized digital agriculture. A few digital priests have invented cuneiform and in cahoots with the prevailing power structures are using it to tax and oppress the digitally illiterate masses.

It's more complicated than, "using AI more and more will cause us to forget how to write."

It's just a tool.

I like comparing it to something like quizlet (online flash cards), which can be a great study tool, but which people will also misuse and abuse. Instead of studying and taking the online quizzes, people will often just find the right quizlet which has all of the answers to the online quiz. People who are honest will actually learn the material, and the cheaters suffer.

I think people who misuse ChatGPT will become lazier, worse writers. But using the tool in an honest way will improve even an already talented writers work.

Just my 2 cents.
Yes, I don't doubt that there are more affordable products which offer the same, or (probably) better, quality, for a better price.

Exactly. For every "it's not human but does something similar to what humans do" there's some "oh but it's not human so what it does is not what humans do".

> The working class is classically defined as that class which must sell its labour-power in order to survive.[0]

It does go on to define working class as essentially blue collar workers, even highly skilled ones. Which would exclude software engineering.

Though I think it should include anyone for which they aren't earning enough to eventually become financially independent through their labour. This would then include quite a number of white collar workers. Certainly there are software engineers outside the silicon valley bubble for which this is true, especially in parts of Asia and India.

A good litmus test is if you feel you should join a union then you're probably working class and if you feel secure negotiating your own pay then you're probably not any more. Though I doubt this fits a traditional definition of working class.

The thing is this will rob a whole generation of that learning. To struggle to learn to write, code, and all that is how you become a professional. A lot of people will never develop these skills, and the chasm between the talented and untalented will only grow.

Writes going to the wrong sector are usually wear levelling algorithms gone wrong. Specifically, it normally means the information about which logical sector maps to which physical sector was updated not in sync with the actual writing of the data. This is a common performance 'trick' - by delaying and aggregating these bookkeeping writes, and taking them off the critical path, you avoid writing so much data and the user sees lower latency.

However, if something like a power failure or firmware crash happens, and the bookkeeping writes never happen, then the end result that the user sees after a reboot is their data written to the wrong sector.
This is true but on a much larger scale than the city. For example, the United States has only three electrical grids (East, West, and Texas). Within those areas, not only are all electricity users in some sense connected, they are all /synchronous/, meaning that the 60hz coming out of your wall peaks and troughs at the same exact time as the 60hz at your cousin's house two states away.

The grids also have interconnections with one another, but they happen via DC to avoid needing to synchronize the whole continent.

In a literal sense, modernity is about using energy to coordinate human activity across vast distances at minute time scales. We normally think about this in terms of transportation, telegraphy, telephony, print, broadcasting, and the internet but it's also true of the motors in our washing machines and factories.

I studied in the Netherlands as Czech Erasmus student about 12 years ago and I recall that one had to fill out a questionnaire about their experience and study during the exchange, and that the results were public for anyone to see[1], which included information about home and receiving institution, courses and so on. And people often consulted this database before submitting an application for their stay, so I would not say that they didn't know about it.

And while it's likely that local legal conditions differs a bit and that it changed over time, I'm not surprised that such high level data are public.
