> In fact I'm happy to let anyone identify as anything, as long as I'm not compelled to pretent along with them.

If a person legally changes their name (forget gender, only name), and you refuse to use it, and insist on using the old name even after requests to stop, at some point that would become considered malicious and become harassment.

But ultimately because society and science deems that "name" is not something you're born with, but a matter of personal preference and whims, it's not a crime. You'd be an asshole, but not a criminal.

However, society and science have deemed that sexuality and gender are things you ARE born with, mostly hetero and cis, but sometimes not. So if you refuse to acknowledge these, you are committing a hateful crime against someone who doesn't have a choice in the matter.

You can disagree. But then don't claim that "you are happy to let anyone identify as anything", because you're not, not really.

> Men are competing against women (and winning). Men are winning awards and accolades meant for women.

One woman. Almost all examples everyone brings up are based on Lia Thomas [0]. I have yet to see other notable examples, never mind an epidemic of men competing against women in sports.

[0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lia_Thomas

> Men are going into women's changing rooms. There is a concerted effort in public schools to normalize this abnormal behavior.

Are you talking about transgender people, or are you talking about bad faith perverts abusing self-identification laws to do this?

Because if it's the former, are you asking https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blaire_White to use men's changing rooms, and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buck_Angel to use women's?

If it's the latter, no denial that perverts and bad faith exceptions exist. But those people never needed an excuse to hide in women's toilets. Trans people have been using the bathrooms of their confirmed gender for decades. The only thing that's changed recently is conservatives decided to make this their new wedge issues so butch women and mothers with male children with mental handicaps that need bathroom assistance have been getting harassed.
Agreed. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.

Brings to mind an interesting tidbit I ran into--long ago your sign probably did correlate with meaningful things in life. Not that the stars mattered, but the seasons did. Early life nutrition would vary. Even today you'll find a correlation between signs and ADHD diagnoses--because of the school year. There is almost a year of difference between the oldest students entering school and the youngest--and those youngest are appreciably more likely to get an ADHD diagnosis.

Tree Style Tabs were released for Firefox around 2007

I am not sure if someone like Opera was earlier, but Arc is likely copying this.
The same model. Or a different model, but one that is worth the same in the market.
Rust macros are partially hygienic, but even scheme's macros turned out to have unintended hygiene violations (https://okmij.org/ftp/Scheme/Dirty-Macros.pdf).

> And I wouldn't say 'many', I know of Elixir

Rust, Julia and Elixir are three fairly mainstream languages with hygienic macros, and there are many more obscure languages (Dylan, and I believe Perl6 aka Raku) to outright esoteric ones (PLOT), as well as hygenic macro add-ons like sweet.js.
Exactly the same concept exists in NHL hockey by the way. In particular, if a player attacking an empty net (because the goaltender has been pulled late in the game to add another skater) is interfered with from behind, or a thrown stick disrupts his shot, the goal is just awarded on the assumption that the attacker would have almost certainly scored.
I don't really think anyone is copying anyone here. This is a popular feature for browsers that has been around for over a decade.

Orion[1] is another recent MacOS browser that released before Arc in 2021 and has vertical tabs. Edge had vertical tabs as an experiment back in 2020[2] and is full feature now. Vivaldi has had vertical tabs since 2015[3]. It might not count since it's not built in, but Firefox has had vertical tab extensions since 2007[4].

> But the disadvantages of core.logic for solving logic puzzles don't end there. core.logic is very sensitive to the way that goals are ordered, in a bad way. Certain orderings, for example, will cause the program to go into an infinite loop, and the DSL is complex enough that this is not always readily apparent.

This is just not correct (or at least phrased VERY poorly). My understanding is that core.logic uses Minikanren under the hood which is guaranteed to find an answer if an answer exists regardless of goal ordering. Unlike Prolog, Minikanren (and presumably core.logic) do not search depth first (which is why Prolog can run into infinite loops very easily). Instead, it roughly does interleaving BFS. It can search inefficiently, but that's true of any combinatorial method.

As for practical use cases, I really like how easy it is to write analysis code for parse trees and type systems. The C# T-SQL parser (used in various tools) is very tedious to actually use for quick jobs because of how many different node types it has. Instead of handling that monstrosity, I wrote a much smaller app that just went over the whole tree and converted it to JSON (including the types and type hierarchy) via reflection. It was then way easier to load it into Prolog and query the tree.
The canonical example for me, is when you want to store/use additional payment processor details for a transaction... If it's direct CC, PayPal, Amazon Payments etc. Relationally you only really care that the amount of the transaction was sent/received/accepted. But you may want to store the additional details, without a series of specific tables per payment processor. If you need to see the extra details that can still be done at runtime.

Another good example is for generalized classified ads, different categories may have additional details, but you don't necessarily want to create the plethora of tables to store said additional details.

Incredibly humbled to hear that. Sometimes it's quiet and lonely as a solo founder, and this comment brought me joy. So thanks for sharing.

> I wonder if I would get used to using a single key for each app versus Alt-tabbing. I believe this is the main cause of my left wrist pain.

I use that kind of setup (kinda) in i3, it is great. It's not one app per key, but one keybind per virtual desktop but I have i3 set up that apps autostart and gets placed always on same desktop

So going to IDE is always caps+4 (I rebounded caps to act as modifier), mail client is caps+F2 etc.

Then few keybinds to move stuff around for those 2% of cases where I need apps on different desktops than usual.

SimulaVR markets themselves as a productivity VR headset. Essentially, have as many terminals and other windows as you want floating in the air around you while still having the pass through cameras to see around them. The review copies are just being made now, though. Not really out yet. It is supposed to fit my huge noggin unlike almost every other headset, though, so I certainly preordered.

There's a not-very-active proposal to add operator overloading to JS which takes a similar scoped approach:

This doesn’t pass the smell test for me. Something has changed. Maybe the model hasn’t changed, but something somewhere is making output worse.

I’m honestly more concerned if OpenAI doesn’t even realize it. Nothing is more infuriating as a user than convincing the developer your bug actually does exist. It speaks to poor monitoring, testing, and tooling.
By the time you need to shard PostgreSQL (billions of records?), you have lots and lots of resources to overcome that difficulty, a la Notion.
Usenet over NNCP
You sound a lot like me, which drove me to log in and reply. Here's what works for me these days and tbh I'm quite pleased with the results. I will admit that the circumstances under which I started this I felt very motivated to complete this.

Here's my advice, it's simple. Keep a streak in Duolingo, it'll remind you. I like the Android widget too. I do maybe one minute of work daily to keep my streak and at least for me it's the cornerstone habit I've then added other stuff over time. Once I had a small streak built up I went to the gym every day to either walk or run and when I ran I just did exactly what the couch to 5k app told me to do. When I was walking, I did duolingo. Self reinforcing.

Being able to run 3 5k's a week by the last week I no longer have problems basically exactly like you described. Or if I do, it's not nearly as egregious as it once was. The only trick for me at least was to just do exactly what I was told. It ramps up and I just never stopped before I was told to.

Key takeaway is that your body and brain are malleable and will adapt. Hope this or something like it helps!
From the C89 Rationale, “The potential for efficient code generation is one of the most important strengths of C. To help ensure that no code explosion occurs for what appears to be a very simple operation, many operations are defined to be how the target machine’s hardware does it rather than by a general abstract rule. An example of this willingness to live with what the machine does can be seen in the rules that govern the widening of char objects for use in expressions: whether the values of char objects widen to signed or unsigned quantities typically depends on which byte operation is more efficient on the target machine.”
Likely another C-based media codec or other similar legacy file reader bug.
didn't garbage collection originate with lisp?

if so, that should really be considered its most pervasive innovation
Nice informative read
Any additive has an early stage of “beneficial” augmentation, after which you need the additive just to reach “normalcy”. Over a very long period, irritation (physical and mental) and other chronic issues often develop. I say “other” because there are dozens of things which can happen and everyone’s reactions can be different.

For instance after over a decade of heavy caffeinating I get rashes and welts when “it’s time to quit”. Sure enough, after roughing through two downer weeks (the time it takes to fully extricate caffeine from one’s system) everything goes back to normal.

After getting caffeine out of the system, the mind goes about normal functionality “caffeine debt free”. Though hitting it again is very tempting as it’s “just like the first time” all over again!
I think when you really need/want a DBA is when you're at a point where either you need redundancy/scale or have to remain up. Most developers aren't going to become that familiar with the details of maintenance and scale for any number of different database platforms. I think MS-SQL does better than most at enabling the developer+dba role, but even then there's a lot of relatively specialized knowledge. More so with the likes of Oracle or DB2.
Some of the best people will say all of the wrong things during an interview
I could see that. I don't think any of the neighbor kids knew anything about VR until they came over to visit and got to see our Quest. But they get hooked, and it's becoming a regular thing for them to ask to come over and play on the VR while our kids play on the Xbox instead. I guess it's a failure of marketing.
Perhaps I'm being pedantic, but `if` and many other control-flow constructs are implemented as macros in Clojure. So you probably use macros a lot!

I really liked brave and this is an interesting feature, but I had to stop using it when I tried syncing my bookmarks - for some reason, a bunch ended up duplicating, and I have a lot of bookmarks that are well organized.

Otherwise, I would have kept using it - it was fast and energy efficient on my intel macbook, way better than chrome.

I also have to say - I hate when I have so many tabs open. It's basically a manifestation of my ADHD. I need to focus one thing at a time.

What makes me suspicious is that disco never "died" in europe in the same way it did in the States...

The "flyover" areas have a lot more diversity than they are given credit for, including many of the cities smaller than Chicago. I don't think there is a US city of any size without pockets of interesting diversity. (Certainly none in my experience though I will admit to generally limited exposure to the Plains states and some "Midwest" bias.) Plus there are all sorts of large "contiguous statistical area" regions in "flyover" land that correspond to multiple "small" cities but overall have the same diversity/pockets/feel-ish of coastal CSAs. Chicago seems an interestingly over-large cut-off point to me for "diverse city" and may show some bias of inexperience in "flyover" areas.

There's definitely a startling lack of diversity in many of the US' truly rural areas, which is why the current US culture war seems dominantly city versus rural. But there are also fewer truly rural areas than people expect. (The US love of suburban and exurban expansion touched a lot of the country.)

I agree that a lot of progress has been made with regards to sexuality. I think mostly because the sex things didn't threaten the status quo in any significant way. It was a useful distraction from the actual crimes being committed. Sub-prime mortgages, military contracts, offshoring, selling secrets, taking money from hostile foreign powers, regulating away competition, not enforcing anti-trust laws, protecting friends from the law, etc...

But what substantive changes have we made progress in on the left in the last 30 years that required even the smallest sacrifice on the part of the elite? Health care reform? Still private and more expensive than ever. Affordable housing? Ha! Improved working conditions? Nope. Expanding social programs? Nope, even less entitlements. Decreasing retirement age? Bringing equity to oppressed minorities? Reducing imprisonment?

if you are Facebook scale, yes. But then you anyway will use a dedicated graph database.

But a lot of graph databases have sizes where they are fully replicated on each node and some small internal optimizations for the graph are good enough. Given the design of the graph query language (and what you can query, hint: not everything arbitrarily) there is no reason postgres can't gain some additional optimizations to do that effectively as long as it's not facebook scale.

SQL now having syntax for querying graph means Graph databases can support SQL, at least a subset of it, in a standardized way.
