Mac windows do snap together when they're close to each other or the edge of the screen.

You can option double-click any corner to make the window fill the screen without going into fullscreen mode.

You can double-click any edge or corner to make it expand to the edge.

Hold down option and mouse over the green traffic light, and you get the option to fill the left or right half of the screen.

The main issues for me are:

1. changing monitor configurations destroys my arrangement

2. the menu bar, on large screens, is too far away — it needs to be closer to where I'm actively working
I've bee using C++ since the late 90s, and namespaces are still annoying.
Carmack is clearly talking about "work you care about" in his post. That's not necessarily the work you are paid to do by your employer, though it might be.

Having the mindset that all your talents are equally available to "corporation you" as they are your employer is a key takeaway from Carmack (and others) I think. Even if you are paid to do things you don't care about, save energy for things you do care about and don't limit yourself by thinking of it as "just a hobby" if you really care about it.

When Carmack had a 9-5 coding job he still made games any way he could. The effort he put into that "work" was what really mattered for his success. If he had the mindset that he should only work for the employer and only 9-5 we'd never have heard of him.

We can't all be Carmack but many of us can do better than spending all our effort on something we don't really care about.

I would love if sql would support a slight syntax change of accepting

From table select col;

as an optional alternative to

select col from table;

This would allow autocompleting col names in editors.

Other than that I quite like sql being the standard db query language.
I agree with you. I answered a similar comment directly above yours. Paul Graham says don't try to make the site perfect, get it out the door as fast as you can. Hopefully it will begin to scale and we will hire a designer to help. Thank you for weighing in I (we) are listening, and responding candidly. We will behave the same way with our customers. This is good practice. ;)

However the screen is 7 inches and text in games like this or early Fallouts is too small for me, so I planned to use SD for them but resigned.
That further increase the complexity of the queries, and then you start hitting weird corner-cases like postgres's difficulty (inability?) to convert a JSON array of JSON text elements to an array of text.
That’s an important point. In 2016, John Carmack is speaking as a manager who doesn’t even have to show up for his job about wanting to extract more value from the employees working under him on his hobby project. He wants them to work harder on his stupid VR goggles fetish.

It had been more than 20 years since Carmack pulled an all nighter working on Doom, and he’s been coasting along ever since.

That's because Russia doesn't extradite its citizens. While Russia doesn't have an extradition treaty with the USA - it has extradition treaties with some other US allied countries. So he'll be safe from extradition even after Putin is gone.
My mom says "na mij de zondvloed", and Dutch has a tendency to loan from French (invasions and all that), and "après" is after iirc and "deluge" means a lot of rain in English right? So I guess it means what my mom says: "after me, the huge flood", or whatever that biblical story's rain/flood was called, the one where Noah got a ship with every type of animal to eat^W, ahem, rescue

I don't think it's spite, I think it's rational. (Not that I approve.)

They're widely expected to IPO imminently. One of the most critical metrics in the S-1 will be mobile app DAUs/MAUs. They can't credibly include the 3P app users in those figures. They also don't want to be in a situation where most of their paying subscribers are insulated from future "features" and UX "evolutions" that investors will demand.

So, it makes sense to me that they would induce a scenario where users are forced to choose between migrating to the official app or quitting reddit.

I know several professional journalists, I even happen to employ (a former) one.

None of them are using GenAI to write their articles. To help with research, topic idea and generation, maybe getting some options for how to rewrite a passage or headline, yes. All great, used right it helps them be more efficient and improves the end result.

I have a very amateur background in journalism myself (edited my college and high school newspapers, took a class or two). I can smell excessive ChatGPT abuse on an article. It's like how good devs can smell bad code. ChatGPT tends to write articles which regurgitate popular viewpoints from the Internet in an equivocating way that isn't very engaging and contains no unique insights. In other words it's not output that most professional newsrooms would want to publish, it doesn't hook anybody (at least not yet). Current generative models also handle current events poorly. The Guardian are quite good at what they do and abusing e.g. ChatGPT would dilute their brand.
Thanks for your feedback! Of course we all have our "bubble", we make our own experiences, and if we share our learnings, they might not always match what other people have experienced.
In practice, I feel a statement like "any event could trigger any bit of code in the entire system" a bit exaggerated. When I think of event driven systems, I think of business applications, where a large number of microservices interoperates mainly over Kafka. So the services that are triggered by an event are already limited to those subscribing to a specific Kafka topic.
Of course if you follow the chain of subsequent events (i.e. service A emits an event, with leads to service B emitting events, with lead to service C and D emitting events..), you might not be aware for every event what'll happen way downstream. But you can turn this into an architectural strength, as it leads to better decoupling and separation of concerns.

On another note, as you describe GOTO as a double sided sword, now I really wonder what the positive side of GOTO is..
We’re talking about the desktop OS, not Apple Vision Pro, which isn’t even out yet. Snapping makes lots of sense for a 2d desktop OS.
If you enjoy that comic collection then keep it. Instead make sure they know where such collections are sold. Maybe note who the comic collectors club is and appoint them to sell (they get 10% of value for their efforts or some such)

Also, if you are wealthy enough consider giving it to someone less wealthy in the club who will enjoy it.

New AirDrop Features Coming in iOS 17
I honestly think it provides perverse incentives, especially in the Apple ecosystem, for Apple to leave their platforms barebones and apps simple. Instead of pushing their platforms and apps to provide the absolute best experience, they can spend less money on R&D and rely on third-party software, while in many cases taking a 30% cut. They've effectively outsourced and crowdsourced the R&D, while leaving the option to sherlock any feature they choose to after it's been proven successful.
I don't think it's the case that finance is over produced. If it were, then the value of financial services would drop.

Rather, because the gain produced by financial instruments is proportional to the wealth someone has, the returns of finance disproportionately benefit those with large amounts of wealth. One man can only make so much plumbing or being a mechanic, but can make an arbitrary about by investing in ETFs.

In other words, if the financial sector was largely a collection of small businesses run by middle class people, no one would think it was a problem that they make money. That would be great! But in reality it's a smaller amount of companies and smaller amount of wealthy people that benefit from it.

That problem isn't unique to finance, it affects many parts of our society.

From my experience, ORMs in hands of junior.developers who happen to not yet know SQL are a disaster. However hard the ORMs may try, the code ends up making a ton of small queries instead of one efficient query, and fetching a ton of unused columns. The developers then end up doing joins manually in application code, some distance further from the place of the original queries.

ORMs also tend to sneak "live" objects into unexpected places, triggering surprise DB accesses.

Not that ORMs are completely useless. We just need to stop pretending that there can be a smooth and performant automatic mapping between relational tables living in a DBMS and Business Objects living in some idealized world without storage limitations, where any connection between them is like following a pointer in RAM.

Most ORMs provide tools to write composable, reusable queries and parts thereof. These are the best parts.

> All problems they're facing are due to the decision to make tests a "special case" rather than just normal Rust code that happens to test things.

That's one way in which this can be interpreted, but I don't really agree. I think the problems are a classic case of a "good enough" solution that shipped very early and became core of the ecosystem. Now it's hard to move off it or to improve it as it's in a case of stasis.

Even today you do not need to use `#[test]` or the built-in functionality at all. (The exception being that the internals of the print interception are not exposed, but there are other ways around that).

Fundamentally the frustration of the state is not high enough, and nobody pushes strongly for a much improved testing solution. But technology wise, you would not need anything from the language to have a better test system in Rust.

We just bought a tool at work from a startup for $400/month that helps designers store components and helps developers catalog React code for said components.

Edit: Another idea is some sort of Slack app that costs $1/month/person. Then try to sell it to companies that have a couple hundred employees. The $1/person/month means the value you're providing need only be incremental rather than life changing.

Society allows the people to trade futures, but makes it difficult. US brokers seem to make it very easy for “randos” to own equities, but difficult to trade futures. Recently, when I wanted to trade a one-by-one call spread on a commodity future (not saying which) via Interactive Brokers, the required initial margin would have been eight times my maximum possible loss. Bonkers! Hence trade not done.

And what would you rather happen? That you were prohibited?

While this may have prevented FRB, that's a very dangerous game to play should the bluff get called.

I'm strongly opposed to the idea that those given the power and authority to control or markets, as best they can, should world that power by lying to us. Lying because they think it's the best thing for us or because they don't think we can handle the truth is a slap in the face to the very trust that empowered them to begin with. Our leaders do this often and it's such a slippery slope - it either works and you feel emboldened to lie again or it backfires and we're all worse off.

Things to keep in mind when publishing a library in 2023
I get around this when hand coding by doing a quick 'SELECT * FROM', adding my joins, then going back and filling in the fields using intellisense. Intellisense doesn't know what columns are available until the FROM clause is handled.

To me, this is a slight annoyance with an easy workaround. If the SQL spec gets updated to allow switching the clauses around, I'll be pleased. But I'm not about to change languages over it.
Yes, it was personal preference indeed. I have written a little more about that here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32980708
Yep, with no recourse for manual intervention, even if the new site is better in all ways.
If you use visual mode, you can do `v3w` to highlight three words, and then you can manipulate that selection before you do something with it, like `d` for delete.

You can also use that with ex commands, like if you do `vap:s/foo/bar/g` you will replace `foo` with `bar` only within the block of code you visually highlighted with `ap` (which I remember as “a paragraph).

So if you want “delete three words”, do `d3w`. If you want “highlight three words” do `v3w` and then issue another command like `d` to do something with what you highlighted.
People have rose tinted glasses when they talk about old games.

PS:T was a cut above the other cRPGs of its time mainly because it had adequate writing and an engaging story when most other cRPGs were trite. Still everything after Raven’s maze is just average until the ending where it gets good again and the gameplay outside of dialogue is frankly uninteresting. It’s in a lot of way like the original Dark Soul whose last half is so aweful I’m not sure the awesome first one is enough to redeem the game.

PS:T has now been bested by plenty of modern cRPGs. I’m not sure it’s worth revisiting considering how long it is.

The picture appears to be centered.

The house appears to be centered in the picture, more or less.

However, since there’s another house right very close to it on the right side and empty space on the left, I believe this creates a little bit of an illusion of the house not being centered.

Personally, I think it looks fine.

Side note: If I was buying a house that nice I’d want a bit more space between my neighbor. :)

It is possible to care about multiple issues simultaneously. Saying it's demented to care about one person being wronged because other, totally different people are wronged is a bit selfish. It's okay to have a purpose that you believe in, but the world isn't black and white.

Or a reminder how ostentatiously out of touch the land owning class gets after perpetual class division, which ultimately always leads in the 'proles' rising up as History has shown.

Honestly, this is berift with why tech should be as remote as possible; it is these kind of parasitic fake jobs become lucrative in HoL areas who exploit this feature of a crony-capitalist model, which is often referred to as late stage capitalism by the vocal misinformed: they fail to realize that this has been baked into the system all along--the very term landlord has overtones of a fiefdom based structure, wherein a monarch allows an initiated member of likely lower class/caaste to take care of there lands as a 'trade' and operate as an enforcer. Tips are just the new veiled bribe in order to get things done to your dwelling etc... this is as old as history itself and a subsequent component of Society and we should just be honest about it after millennia, because we clearly seem to want to keep it in place.

Absolutely. JSON serialization is so well optimized in most RDBMS vendors now it puts very little additional CPU work on the database, and duplicating data in the output for large graph-based results is a small price to pay to breaking out of set-based constraints.
