I guess I don't google enough. I live in the middle of a desert. I live near a small stream in the middle of the desert. That small stream is dammed and diverted to irrigate, wait for it, alfalfa.

If we didn't grow alfalfa we would have a lot more water for people to drink. We could sustain more people. Then, instead of having a few thousand people live next to a little stream in the middle of the desert, we could have tens of thousands of people live next to a little stream in the middle of the desert.

No amount of googling explains to me why it is better to have more people near a small stream than it is to have more alfalfa near a small stream.

Imagine a small island that used the scarce land for agriculture. Would it be better to put more people on the island, or would it be better to grow food on the island? What if there were only a few people and they had large fields to grow food. Should they be forced to give up their land so more people could live on the island?

Why is it so important to fill the island with people?
See the parallel comment about Lehman. Share price was fine. Company wasn’t. Only once it was public the company was effectively dead did the shares fall. They are unrelated.

But it’s also not splitting hairs. It’s important to realize that equity price has no bearing on the company itself. You’re talking about something different than what was being discussed. You’re saying share price is correlated to expectation of company performance. What was being discussed was company performance is related to share price. One direction is true but the other isn’t. Companies see their valuations fall for all sorts of reasons that are not reflected in actual performance. Thats often because of a hype cycle that deflates, or maybe a scandal involving an executive, or whatever. This fall in valuation doesn’t impair the company in the least, except for if they need to raise capital by issuing equity.

May companies get delisted, which effectively brings their share price to the penny stock levels. They sometimes resurface and relist. Companies also can do certain corporate actions that make their stock basically worthless. The key is that while a stocks price sometimes corresponds to actual performance, actual performance is never impacted by stock price.
If there are so many can you please name a competitive game where a 4090 give a meaningful advantage over a 3060. And consider that 1080p at 120FPS on low settings is essentially the max that any competitive gamer could ask for. Running games higher then 1080p is eye candy, nothing more. Anything over 120FPS does give a tiny, tiny, tiny advantage.
I'm happy to share my first launch on Product Hunt, hopeful it won't be the last. Undertaking my initial solo full stack project has been an enriching learning journey. There's indeed no better way to learn than by doing, and this hands-on experience has significantly improved my technical skills. Moreover, it has provided me with critical insights into transforming an idea into a working product. These insights, along with the technical skills gained, will undoubtedly aid in my future role as a data analyst developing data products. I employed Ruby on Rails for the backend (Sidekiq for background jobs), HTML, CSS, and JS for the frontend, a PostgreSQL database, and Heroku for hosting. Check out what I've learned and created: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/rimbaud-ai
just to nitpick,
but with airline travel about five or six nines (99.9999%) safe, that is, one fatality every million miles of travel or so, 95% vs 99% is nowhere near good enough.

I don't think there's any more reason to think that we've been kissing forever than to think we've been nodding up and down for "yes" and side to side for "no" forever. There are many people in the world who do not kiss, or who nod up and down for "no" and side to side for yes. Just because a behavior is shared by 99% of people doesn't make it necessarily intrinsic, or even historically likely or useful.

Also, as far as I can tell from anthropological films of rural tribes/bands with less contact, none of them ever kiss. Mouths that aren't constantly scrubbed out are gross.

It's because fat clients (like WLM, which was Discord's DM UX before Discord) lost because they're not profitable.

Thin clients, however, mean you're data minable and get to pay for things that, instead of occupying your and your friends' machine (like custom emotes, animated avys, voice clips), now occupy valuable company server space.

My historiography here spans from the present to 2000, though; I have no idea how IRC worked or what people did pre-Yahoo! Messenger or WLM.
That’s some bullshit. I applied for CS at tech and they butchered my admission and put me in general engineering. When I called to correct this obvious mistake they said the CS program was full.

I blamed it on Virginia tech’s football team making it to championships that year (1999). Oh well, still got to work with famous professors and got a very good head start on my career through my Alma mater
Me too, I think that's the disconnect. The very last thing I expect my car to do is be a "society has collapsed" last resort of communication. I have a bag of emergency supplies in my trunk I've had since my dad got it for me when I was 16 that includes a portable battery/hand crank radio. My radio has sat in every car I've owned. So the trade of having n+1 am radios over my lifetime or 1 comes out better for not including it in the car.

I would honestly much rather institutionalize my dad, have cars come with an emergency supplies kit if you don't already have one. Make everyone better prepared and waste less.
As an American: It should’ve. If a firmer hand was taken it could’ve saved thousands of lives. France and Germany wagged its finger but basically waved us through.
I agree that ours isn't necessarily the right model for every industry. We do plan to expand beyond tech eventually. When we do that, we would need to work with a new set of attorneys with experience in that field as you suggest.

On your question about how to tell whether the forms are truly neutral, you don't have to take our or the committee's word on it. Since the docs are public and available for free, you and/or your attorney are welcome to review them. Lots of companies have done that and decided that they do represent a balanced standard, but some decide it's not for them.

We work closely with an attorney who specializes in the practice of law. They've helped us to strike a balance between offering something that we hope is useful while not running afoul of the UPL rules.
> to me AM is a must for dire emergencies

I agree with this specific part, but you haven't explained why you think it needs to be built into your car instead of just having a standalone radio that you can carry with you.
Every single school has an "active shooter" drill. Some boneheaded admins even have a fake instigator come onto campus.

It's extremely disruptive to a child's psyche even if they are never unlucky enough to be at one of the weekly school shootings (which is a horrifically dystopic line that I'd never considered possible 20 years ago).
I'd love if the ambiguities could be a dialogue of question/answer, rather than being fully specified ahead of time like we generally have programming today. It seems much more efficient.
Except the implementation of Lenin's principles is 35% locking down those 5% by preventing their freedom of movement and competitive employment, so that their results may be bought at far below market rate and distributed between the remaining 95%.

This is where you begin to see state serfdom and exit visas.

Compound by the fact that everybody tends to be quite poor as productive people don't feel the need to overstretch themselves producing.
Show HN: Testy, a better Golang testing library
Hi HN, I'd like to show you Testy [0], a small testing library for golang that I've just released today.

Golang is interesting because it has an extremely powerful builtin testing framework, `testing`, that supports both soft and hard checks/assertions. Soft checks mark the test as failed but allow it to continue running. Hard checks mark the test as failed and immediately cause it to end, like asserts traditionally do in most languages.

There are a few established testing libraries (testify [1], gotest.tools [2], and is [3]) that take advantage of this in various ways, but they each have drawbacks.

- testify supports both hard and soft style checks. They call the soft checks "asserts", and the hard checks "requires", to the confusion of all. Their API has a massive surface area, which is confusing for developers trying to write tests. It uses `reflect.DeepEquals` for deep equality, which is painful for common operations like comparing `time.Time` structs. And their API isn't typesafe, so refactoring existing tests is a pain.

- gotest.tools has a smaller API surface area, and does some cool tricks with AST parsing in order to show meaningful failure messages. It uses `go-cmp` for deep equality, which is the right choice. But the API is confusing, the not typesafe, and it doesn't have soft style checks for everything.

- is has a too-small API surface area, to the point that it's missing NotEquals checks. It is also built around `reflect.DeepEquals`, and is not typesafe.

Testy, my new library, addresses all of these issues. It's typesafe, using generics. It uses `go-cmp` for deep equality testing. It has soft checks and hard asserts. It has a small, but sufficient, API surface area that makes it easy to learn and use. And it comes with structural helpers for giving your tests clearer meaning and failure output, making your tests more useful.

Give it a shot and let me know what you think! My one big question is whether or not to expand the surface area of the API and add more helpers, for things like comparing lengths, checking whether or not an object is in a slice or map, etc. Comments and feedback appreciated greatly!

I remember finding one of those at our house in Orange County, California, in the mid-80's. I was a teen, and it really grossed me out. Apparently, They've been a problem for quite a while.
1. Yes, very. Loading indicator could be a little more clearer on time estimate, but great/outstanding overall.

2. No, it seems too direct and not creative. I wonder if the original non-instruct models (curie etc) would be better for this use case than ChatGPT. Because they make more divergent and creative results.
Interesting. It's still difficult to purchase in CA. Used to be sold at Home Depot, now it's "Acetone replacement". I have to go to specialty suppliers.
The USA didn't invade Texas.
Texians (Anglo Texans who had migrated) and Tejanos (Mexican Texans) alike were fed up with Santa Anna's rule and successfully rebelled, forming the Republic of Texas which lasted for 10 years, at which point the Republic accepted the American offer of annexation in a referendum. The Mexican/American war spun out of the aftermath of the annexation.

> I don't really understand how we can have a so strong resistance to UI changes among IT professionals.

It's often bad. Poorly-motivated, poorly-conceived, and poorly-executed.

Some of us have watched non-pros suffer through this stuff. It's much, much worse for them. I've come to believe you better have a goddamn great reason to modify UI, these days, and that a complete overhaul or redesign is almost never justifiable.

I think somewhere around 50,000 LOC and my brain just stops coping - maybe I could get to grips with something larger but if you need to reason about something you need to understand it.

Not sure where to go with it other than if software is going to run our world shoukd it all fit into a human head? It takes years to train a lawyer to understand the tangled web of human language law, which companies have a bad exam before allowing developers a commit bit?

Isn't ChatGPT (or some now not that far fetched futuristic version that's superior) a 5GL? You ask it for a program in English, and it codes it for you. You've just coded in natural language.
At that pay band they are looking for warm body levels of fill. Like we need a guy to sit in chair for compliance reasons but he probably shouldn’t touch any of the controls level of pay. Like for reference brown bear car wash pays 22 per hour and a straight out of 2 year trade school mechanic gets 37 with union benefits in Washington state (outside Seattle)
That's what programming with ChatGPT is like.
Thanks for the link, it’s great write up. I’ll play with his algorithm to see how it works for me, it may speed up the pre-processing. Its still slower to the user than using the pre generated masks however

You don't need a modal window
The known default point is a big one, and making deviations visible is something we spend a lot of time thinking about. In our software, we make it easy for our users (and their customers) to know that nothing has been sneakily modified.

We don't yet have a straightforward way to do that for people who are using the contracts on their own outside the software. The best bet for now is probably something like a text diffing tool or Microsoft Word's built in comparisons.

We have some ideas for a native validator for the standards that IMO would be a better solution for those kinds of cases.
Bonjour is built on top of DNS. You don't need a layer 2 tunnel to make it work.

However, it normally does rely on multicast. Rather than trying to bridge broadcast domains (which is going to cause performance issues), a more efficient option is to setup an Avahi mDNS reflector on either end of the tunnel to rebroadcast mDNS packets.

See, for example: https://www.reddit.com/r/WireGuard/comments/g80bxf/comment/h...

Alternatively, there's also a Wide-Area Bonjour service that works over unicast and doesn't need any special packet forwarding, provided you run a Bonjour-aware DNS server:

http://www.dns-sd.org/serversetup.html

https://help.dyn.com/bonjour-and-dns-discovery/

(More generally, Layer 2 tunnels are best avoided unless you really need them for something arcane, like IPX or NetBIOS.)
Yep! And I'd bet that's a huge part of why it took off. An equally capable model with a "write a better prompt and try again" UX wouldn't be nearly as useful.
>Republic accepted the American offer of annexation in a referendum.

A bit like Crimea then.
Acetone is not a VOC.
Also, Don't confuse VOC, which is about air pollution, with toxicity, which is not. Toluene is a very slow evaporating VOC that is toxic. Not all VOC are toxic and not all toxic solvents used in coatings are VOCs.

Most 2k water based urethanes with isocyanate hardeners are ~zero VOC (and colorless + odorless at less than harmful concentrations) but much more toxic to those spraying and within inhalation range. Thankfully we are moving to iso free formulations.

It happens that the isocyanate reacts with moisture in air fast enough that it won't harm many others but again, VOC != Toxicity.

I would rather have non toxic air pollution than colorless odorless toxic gas, and there are plenty of examples of VOC regulation generating the second.

It's one of the fun lies that paint companies sell (0 voc = safer for you. Non VOC is good for environment in general but tells you nothing about safety)

Huh. I was looking for some more information (about either the developer or maybe whatever CAD engine was being used), and it seems that there is another block based CAD editor with a very similar name.

Block CAD (this) versus Blocks CAD[1]. As a disclaimer I use OpenSCAD and have long thought that the interface would lend itself nicely to the scratch-style paradigm, but I've never bothered since the default OpenSCAD + git + Cura has been more than enough for what I need

Irrespective of ML/etc. developments, heterogeneity is always there. CSS is one of the least liked languages in widespread use, and it is still everpresent. After a decade of attempts to replace SQL with JS, it appears that SQL is becoming actually more ubiquitous. Efforts to replace R with Python have been ongoing for years, and R is still being used in many new projects, often begrudgingly by Python programmers who would prefer not to be.

I am primarily a Python programmer, and I think it's a good idea to be able to program in Python, because it's core competency is that it is pretty good at lots of things (web scripting, data science, ML, etc. etc.). However, sometimes you need the best language for [x], and that language is often something written for [x].

Part of the reason why, is that the "simplicity and coherence" that people think they will get from a homogenous environment, rarely pans out. Ten years ago people were trying to use JS for everything, and it seemed like it would drive backend languages like Python away, because using JS for both front-end and back-end would be "simpler". It didn't turn out that way.

The fact is that the problem spaces differ more than the languages. Even if you know, let's say, Python web development, it doesn't mean you can do Python data science, or Python ML, or etc. Whereas, if you know Python web development, and you have to figure out Ruby webdev code, there will be a little bit of a learning curve but it won't require as much of a mindset change. If you need to convert Python data science code to R, if you're already familiar with the concepts involved, the language learning is not nearly as big an issue as if you only know Python, but not the domain space involved.

I'm sure there are still places trying to pursue the "one language" homogenous environment. The payoff is not what they were hoping for.
