PRC has little control over NK whose the one that's been limiting cross border trade. NK would rather starve a few people in exchange for autarky / independance. NK only started openning up to agri imports from PRC / RU in Q1 this year, but that's mainly due to may/june being toughest period for NK agri production - "sprint poverty" right before harvest. All PRC can do is deal with NK like everyone else, while also encourage their missile program since they'd rather NK fling their target at Japan or US West Coast than PRC.
Absolutely correct.

> So at any given point you don't even know what data is present or not present depending on which point in the pipeline it has passed or not?

At least with a non mutating data structure with the public contract you can tell if it's passed through a part of the pipeline because a required field is blank or null.

With a mutating data structure that gets changed, say 20 different times throughout the system you have no idea if it's passed through some part of the pipeline or not.

Even better if somehow everything can interact via a centralized database where all state is stored even intermediate state. Its not just storage. It's also state management.

I think you are right and it depends so much on what you are building and in what context.

If shipping is expensive, you build something complex and correctness matters, you want to go all in on design and verification. You might even want to use TLA+ to verify your algorithms beforehand.

If you build a SaaS app that people use for leisure and is mostly CRUD, you probably don't need UML diagrams for the vast majority of your work. Exceptions will be the larger systems design where you still need to plan things like DB sharding approach, services etc.

Very true. Still, it makes a big difference, to omit the jargon and the need to choose an instance. Even if under the hood the technology is the same, the users just know they sign in to an app and it works everywhere.

The content creator/moderator knows that if the hosting service starts acting iffy, he exports everything to a different host, keeps the same domain, no one knows he even moved. Much smoother.

The problem with federation is not the technology, is that the technology is packaged as a platform.
> Google is good for search results which generate money, e.g. when you intend to buy things.

I think how true that is depends on where you want to buy from. Google is good at referring you to certain other websites to buy from. If you're looking for broader search results than that, it's not really any better than for other sorts of searches (at least, that's how it was a couple of years ago).
OP started out talking about plumbers; if you want to meet plumbers (or their friends) at networking events, you're going to have to start attending builder's conferences.

And even if you do that, the people you're likely to meet will be businessmen, not tradesmen. Tradesmen work, and when they're not working, they're either getting training or they're on holiday. They don't do "events".

I am a newcomer to HN, and in my short time here I have noticed a lot of links to really interesting blog posts. I'm curious about HN users specifically and their blogging habits.

Sales Tax Economic Nexus – U.S. State by State Rules
Some boards have decent support. I've got an odroid C1 released in 2015 and I saw there is at least an Ubuntu 20 image for it!
Yeah, hard disagree on all that. As someone who lived through that era professionally, and who has had an "architect" title in the past, I was actually resistant to ever stepping into that role, because I had so many bad experience with the Formal Architecture Methodology crew, who would produce the most absurd and out-of-touch designs. There's a reason that "architecture astronaut" is a term from that era.

Lots of people make bad designs today, sure, but it's not for a lack of formal methodologies, because average design quality was way worse back in the design patterns 'n' UML days.
The one rationale I know is that there is a competitive issue, where the first browser to adopt it will have slightly slower page loads, but won't gain anything yet because no site uses it.

The slightly slower page loads is one extra round trip to the DNS server (that is supposed to be close to you). It can be solved at the DNS side, and last time I looked, about a decade ago, was indeed solved at the default configuration of most open-source servers. But the large providers don't use the default configuration of their servers.
And to debunk the canard about replaceable batteries preventing phones from being waterproof: the Samsung S5 was waterproof and had a replaceable battery, as did decades of police and marine walkie talkies and GPS, and a century of outdoor flashlights. I would accept that it costs a little bit of space inside the phone, interfering with Steve Jobs' dream of a paper thin phone the size of a cigarette lighter. But today, Jobs is gone and people like big phones, so it is fine. I would even be happy with a thick phone powered by a couple of 18650's instead of a pouch cell.

Note that per the article, it is ok for replacing the battery to require simple tools (e.g. a small screwdriver). So that makes weather sealing even easier, since you can put a gasket around the battery door and tighten the door down with a screw. That is how my old AA-powered Garmin GPS works, more or less, though you don't need tools to undo the screw.
Ehm, I guess you have never heard about BSA raids, right?

It’s not your tax dollars at work, it’s the opposite. The CA lottery generates about $2B, 1% of total funds that go to public schools.

It encourages dumb behavior but brings in money for the state. Is it a net win or net loss… depends on how much the negative externality is valued—is lotto a gateway to more gambling or a substitute for other, costlier gambling?

There are plenty of people who argue that lotteries should be banned, which is fine, but that will result in fewer services or higher taxes.

Function Integration in OpenAI's Chat Completions API: A Pythonic Approach
I wonder how we've ended up in a situation with so many petulant tyrants running amok over previously green fields of humanity?

Elon, Zuck, Bezos, Trump, Gates, Putin and now Reddit, all in the last 5-7 years have been doing things that are user or human hostile while holding some segment of our society hostage in the process.

Elon throwing a 42 billion dollar Twitter hissyfit, Bezos using Amazon's money and connections to lock sellers into their platform and then undercut them with cheap knockoffs, plus underpaying their front line employees as if they don't have enough money already, Trump with turning seemingly normal Republicans into walking cesspools of hate, Gates with the Windows 10/11 privacy and user right shitstorm, and now Reddit redlining their greed and attacking the users and apps that actually makes their site function while not offering any equivalent alternative, Putin tanking the entire country's human reserves and financial strengths to try to vaingloriously steal back a few hundred square miles of land.

All of these things happening in the same bundle of years makes me want to believe in Aliens or Armageddon or the Illuminati or something, because I can't bring myself to believe that the most powerful people in the world would be so selfishly stupid.

Selfish, yes, stupid, yes, but selfishly stupid? When they are surrounded by so many people whose life and lineage and future history depends on the glamorous and glowing successes of these people? And they all ignore all of them and do stupid things with no one checking their ego even the slightest?

How is that possible without an unseen third hand pulling the strings?

I don't know, and I don't think I believe there is something like that, but I suspect there is, and I can't shake that suspicion either.
I don’t think this is any more true than it ever was. If anything, the rise of open source libraries, GitHub and friends has made it easier than ever to reuse software and avoid NIH. This has lead to a different set of problems, but relative to when I was writing C in the 90s I’d say software reuse and design is far advanced from those days.

I do however agree that design is sorely missing from the current software project management zeitgeist, which means it’s done in a more ad hoc way. People are taking frameworks like Scrum far too literally, and I agree that in some cases there is little vision or overall architecture because the framework doesn’t include these things. There should be design and review activities both before and after coding, but these are largely neglected from most project management frameworks. Scrum for example doesn’t even include backlog management, which in my work is a critical activity.

While that doesn’t mean design, architecture and scope management is not done, it’s certainly less visible than it might be.

All of that said, I’m a big believer that the ultimate expression of any design is code. The design artefacts that come before code is written are scaffolding, age quickly, and are soon useless. So there’s not much need to keep them around, and they are mostly of interest as preliminary directions.

In this regard I’m a big fan of Jack Reeves essays from the same period at https://www.developerdotstar.com/mag/articles/reeves_design_...

I have not, but interestingly both the guys I started my career with made that switch. Both were technically smart but also enjoyed working with people, so they both went into sales engineering, supporting the sales process both pre and post-sales. Both have gone on to be very successful as sales managers and now directors.

But the key to their success was being technically strong enough to understand the customer's problem, and personable enough to work with clients as well as be able to explain very technical topics to less technical or non-technical people.
> you could handle multiple requests at the same time

To be fair to Python and the GIL, it's totally capable of parallelizing requests when most of the work is network-bound, which is probably the common case. And when the work is CPU-bound, but the CPU-intensive part is written in C, it's also possible for C to release the GIL. So it's really only "heavy computational work directly in Python" programs that are affected by this. (On the other hand, Python applications do naturally expand to look like this over time...)
The source you link says that Portugal had a total of 68 drug-induced deaths in 2019, corresponding to 10 per million. In 2001 there were 76 deaths, corresponding to about 7.3 deaths per million. So overdose deaths rose slightly relative to the total population (they did not double).

But for this to be a valid argument about the merits of Portugal's drug policy, you'd have to control for other factors like the types of drugs being used, comorbidities, age, etc. You are accusing a source (which you originally cited to support your own point) of cherrypicking but you are doing a lot of that yourself. What would be helpful would be an actual peer-reviewed study on the effects of the policy (which by the way has evolved and became quite a bit more restrictive after ca. 2015).
Software architects, much like real architects, often end up with absolutely beautiful elegant designs which are unfit for purpose and have leaky roofs.

But why can't Alice keep rolling the die until it gets to a state that she and Bob agree is a part of an encoding scheme? Is it because she needs to read the number on the die to know whether to stop rolling it, but by reading (measuring) the number, she is effectively re-rolling (collapsing) it, so she could never know when to stop rolling it? In other words, she could stop after she measures a state, but the current state of the system is N, she'd be stopping after N-1, and there is no way to coordinate with Bob to know the difference?

The link I posted downthread seemed to suggest that the No Cloning Theorem is the constraint that makes this impossible. Any chance you can try to explain that within the context of the dice analogy?

Struggling San Francisco takes another big hit as mall owner Westfield flees
I studied multimedia computing at university and every job I went for, I was recommended I go into sales rather than tech (web programming, FAE and others). So, I worked as an account manager at a well known hardware manufacturer for a couple of years, then went to a full on sales job at an online media company.

Anout 13 years ago, I moved into a sister company at an affiliate network - and then, whilst managing clients and a team, I also get involved with project planning, coming up with new features and working with our Indian tech team.

Software engineers get paid more if you work at Google etc, but I’ve done well imho - and I really enjoy what I do, being highly technical and commercially focused is a very good skill mix.

If you do go this route - I recommend signing up to Toastmasters, as it’ll give you skills to speak with people.
They have been doing that for over a century. So, if so, the late stage of capitalism is dragging on a bit. I would challenge the notion that dealers have been “celebrated” by anyone but themselves.

Here's a discussion on actix-web and panic handlers: https://github.com/actix/actix-web/issues/1501

Some technical limits, a lot of cultural opposition. While it is possible to have a panic handler, it's generally viewed as a bad idea. Not everything is UnwindSafe, there are limits to how much a panic handler can do, concerns about memory leaks.

Again, the caller can turn it into a panic easily enough if that's what they want. leave the decision in their hands.

> The whirlwind began after the U.S. Supreme Court handed down its decision in South Dakota v. Wayfair in June 2018. This decision changed the game for online sellers. The Wayfair decision is all about nexus. Nexus is the level of connection between your business and the state that obligates you to register and collect sales tax.

> The Supreme Court ruled that physical presence is no longer the main requirement for creating nexus, that it can also be created when a seller’s sales into a state exceed certain economic thresholds. What didn’t change is that physical presence, such as due to inventory or employees in the state, still creates nexus as it always has, without regard to the new economic thresholds.

On the other hand, the current costs of hostilities isn't free either as militaries don't pay for themselves; e.g. a 10% decrease in military spending for countries like South-Korea and Japan would save billions every year (right now, both are increasing spending).

I agree it's not a simple situation because there are 25 million mostly uneducated starving North-Koreans you've got to do something with, but in purely financial terms you're probably going to save money in the long run.

In order for the call into C to appear atomic to a multithreaded interpreter, all threads in the interpreter would need to be blocked during the call. That's possible to do, but you've just re-introduced the GIL whenever any thread is within a C extension.

In the unlocked case, one could use low-overhead tricks used for GC safepoints in some interpreters. One low-overhead technique is a dedicated memory page from which a single byte is read at the beginning at of every opcode dispatch, and you mark that page non-readable when you need to freeze all the threads executing in the interpreter. You'd then have the SIGSEGV handler block each faulting thread until the one thread returned from C. That's fairly heavy in the case it's used, but pretty light-weight if not used.
