I like it, but significance is still context dependent. It all looks quite different depending whether you are researching military conflicts, technology progress, evolution of a species, fashion, religion, trade etc. And these dimensions interact with each other too.
People will say landlords do work too. They’re busy, right? However none of the work they do is necessary as owner and can be contracted out to management. If they do labor, such as maintaining a property, sure that’s value producing labor, but is only coincidentally occasionally shared with the role of raw ownership (landlording)

You should really look into how judges interpret laws (rules, basically). There are two schools I know of: purposivism and textualism (I agree with the latter and it doesn't take into account intentions. That's the basis of how the recent case Van Buren v US was decided, I would recommend reading it: https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/20pdf/19-783_k53l.pdf). But in both, you have things like canons of interpretation and background principles and so on. It's always awesome to see how people who have to deal with the problem have thought about it, because they have usually invested a lot of time into it and come up with insights.

I run my startup on Go and react. The ease of upgrade process can't be further apart.

We have our entire package.json locked down to the exact patch version because we've had issues where random patch upgrade kills the app, we run our own npm server because we can't trust dependency attacks in the js ecosystem. Just absolute pain.

Ten years of Go, I can count on one hand the times a dependency upgrade broke the build.

Oh, no argument here. All I'm saying is that the behavior resulting is determined by the current state of the machine and the compiler used.

Why does the distinction matter? Because I don't believe any program beyond minimal complexity written in C++ is actually free of undefined behavior. Therefore, being able to ask questions like " What configuration of compiler built this?" is meaningful for debugging code.

Because undefined behavior is so easily reached in the language's specification, the abstraction is broken from the start and one must know implementation details of the compilers used to understand how the code behaves.
It's a fresh start, the way I see it - Anki has a lot of dated bloat that's hard to shed (analogous to the heavyweight Visual Studio vs. the lightweight Visual Studio Code)

Yeah, I don't think Ive read anything as dismissive and cynical as this piece.

I found myself trying to see their viewpoint, trying to be critical of my own experiences as a traveler and I kept failing to do so. What a horrible narrative they're embracing.
Perhaps this defeats common security by voice systems, something that even good APIs like Eleven Labs cannot (I assume).
The lie is when your code uses* the “any” value where a concrete type is expected.

I was misunderstanding your point with the deserialize.

Evi Nemeth – The Matriarch of System Administration
Cycles that are not upright bicycles (e.g. recumbent bicycles, upright tricycles, recumbent tricycles, quadricycles) are (completely naturally and understandably) discriminated against in legislation because they’re not so common. Although the law classifies them as bicycles, many laws and rules that affect them are made clearly not considering their different characteristics—their size, their stability, their handling, things like that—and end up mandating things that make sense for upright bicycles but are for these other cycles counterproductive to the clear or likely (depending on the case) intent of the law.

Your example is patently unreasonable and a completely different thing.

Legislation defines various classes of vehicle, and changes the definitions and categories over time to match need. But it’s not good for the legislation to explicitly say “Category A encompasses Items B and C” and then to write a law for Item B but apply it instead to Category A. In this specific case, it’s probably mostly happened by sheer accident because they named Category A “Item B”, and so you can never tell whether the intention was to cover Item B or Category A.

This is why I like what New Zealand has done: by giving the category the name cycles and not bicycles, they’ve kept the opportunity to apply laws to bicycles specifically and not other forms of cycles, in cases where that makes sense.

Race conditions are a good point. I remember on DOS I had a batch file DRI.BAT because I would often type DRI or IDR instead of DIR. Oddly I have no problem with ls and rarely type sl even though L and S are hit with different hands; either my typing has improved or there is something different about those key positions.
I agree it is hard to capture that feeling. I've had it a few times, like being in Yosemite it felt majestic, I can't think of a better word for it right now.

But there is beauty in nature everywhere. It is harder to find in populated areas, but it is still there. In some ways, viewing something majestic, while nice and awe-inspiring, is like being smacked in the face with a baseball bat. Do I really need to be awestruck to remember that nature can be beautiful?

As far as cultures, I get it, but I find it uninteresting at this point. These people queue up different. Those people stop and chat different. These other people view time and lateness different. It is mostly surface level stuff you observe when traveling. Like you write, immersion is required to get a real understanding. IMO that's not travel any more, it's living somewhere else for several months and knowing the language. But I'll accept competing definitions of travel, I just don't think it's what people mean when reading an article like this one.

For me the highlights of Voyager were some of its characters. The Doctor and Seven both grew into their roles very well and Tuvok is one of the most convincingly Vulcan characters who isn't Spock, for example.
I work around the issue of `Object.keys` being unsafe by having a function which takes a list of keys and verifies at compile time that it contains all of the known keys on the object. Excess keys won't be iterated over, at runtime, but I consider this to be a boon.

"...it is distressing to see the [British] press grovelling in the gutter as low as Goebbels in his prime, shrieking that any German commander who holds out in a desperate situation (when, too, the military needs of his side clearly benefit) is a drunkard, and a besotted fanatic. ... There was a solemn article in the local [Oxford] paper seriously advocating systematic exterminating of the entire German nation as the only proper course after military victory: because, if you please, they are rattlesnakes, and don't know the difference between good and evil! (What of the writer?) The Germans have just as much right to declare the Poles and Jews exterminable vermin, subhuman, as we have to select the Germans: in other words, no right, whatever they have done."

That seems quite top heavy. I wonder if your need to be proactive is less driven by the structure of your office and more by the number of bosses you have.
> hardly interesting

Interesting is a matter of perspective, but I've noticed over weeks and months that your HN account "rvz" has been constantly commenting about Mastodon, so you appear to be very interested, despite your claim to the contrary. ;-)

> early days

logicprog didn't say it was early days.

> Nobody but a few geeks use Mastodon

The issue is with "few". Millions of people aren't a few. Perhaps Mastodon users are all or mostly "geeks", i.e., technically sophisticated, but let's not pretend there aren't millions of users. Yes, the number is small in comparison to Twitter and Instagram, but it's large in absolute terms.

> Mastodon could never even handle all Twitter users moving over.

This is true.

Some Twitter migrants to Mastodon want to bring everyone along. Others, such as myself, are happy to leave all of the celebrities, politicians, and trolls behind. My community, Apple developers, for whom I originally joined Twitter back in the day, have almost all migrated from Twitter to Mastodon, and my Mastodon feed is as active as my Twitter feed ever was, while my Twitter feed is now largely dead.
In JavaScript you can use Buffers to allocate bytes and manage memory manually to avoid allocations in hot paths. If you're doing that then yes these techniques can be relevant.

And this isn't that obscure, many Node libraries and apps seeking performance do actually do this manual memory management. I just can't find one from a quick search.
> That's just kind of... bleh? Especially when, yes, you consider the ethnic stereotypes "culture of sneering traders who will cheat you" evokes. But even without those stereotypes, it's just kind of childish.

I get on one level that the Bajorans were much like the historical Jewish peoples, conquered and then freed.

But.... I always thought that the Ferenghi were the eponymous Jew stereotype. Short stature, crooked teeth, would cheat you at a drop of a hat, overly large ears, code of conduct to only deal with their race. It feels like they were created in the antisemitic light of "Happy Merchant" ( https://www.adl.org/resources/hate-symbol/happy-merchant ).

Obviously, those are antisemitic tropes for starting to dehumanize Jews. But damn, when I saw them in ST:TNG, that's exactly what I thought Rodenberry was trying to portray.
>How are those two even approximately related?

Computation is roughly equivalent to iterating over a space of possibilities and selecting the subset that satisfy some evaluative function. To determine the inverse of a matrix, I can take the rough shape of the outcome and iterate over all possibilities, picking out the ones that multiply to the identity matrix. Evolution is the process of randomly testing variations in organisms to select the subset that satisfy the objective of superior fitness. So in a sense, evolution "computes" the blueprint for organisms that maximize fitness. The computational complexity of a given genome is then some function of the size of the species-wide population of each ancestor generation summed, with massive time and space constants.
> A Elon Musk company valued higher than what makes sense.. How novel.

I'm sure you are multi billionaire if you always know how companies should be valued.

> Alternative accounting methods are another common theme with Musk.

That's just a baseless accusation TeslaQ people used to throw around about Tesla. And for SpaceX, we don't know anything about their internal accounting.

> If it's a major capital expense, they'll take on some debt.

Companies do what its based base on a number of factors. One is not inherently better then the other.

So in summation you have any actual arguments. Good to know.
Avoids the central issue, which is that "enshittification" may always have been the plan, and there may not be another actually viable path available.

Well, there is, in the sense that you could start off being, if not profitable, then at least something close to break-even. But often what users love about a new service (whether social media or dirt-cheap taxi company) is that it provides that service at cost well below what it costs to provide (in some cases, for free). There may not actually be any path, other than bait-and-switch, that results in a profit.

The "good" news, is that without very cheap financing available at the first part of this process, even the enshittification path may not be viable. If investors don't have more cash that needs investing than they have opportunities to invest, then a plan of "shovel $$ to users, then to business users, then claw it back for ourselves" may not get enough financing to even start.
A lot of it is driven by media (movies, games), and falling back to a known style is easier than coming up with something new, which reinforces the style. Whereas if someone comes up with a new flavor, it might not even read to the audience as "futuristic", even if more thought went into it. And coming up with something that's not just a skin on tranditional designs is really hard!

could one argue AR designs should be considered more futuristic?

Fake movie UI also is not driven by the same concerns as real-world UI. It's usually much more a flashy center-piece and then just stuff around it that doesn't need to mean anything, because it's not actually intended to be read like a real UI is.
It's totally different.

I agree with all that. But there is also the question: why should we care? What difference does it make now?
And this comes at a cost, having tweaking with Go internals and the compiler I wouldn’t say it’s a mess but it’s a real confusion a lot of things (maybe some) have broken some of the go way, if the go team hadn’t decided to the runtime as a package, 8 years would have taken Go to break changes

Input wise, a throat mic would work. They can rest on the side of your neck and generally only hear you. There’s probably even Bluetooth ones available out there.

Storage wise, I’d personally just go with a publicly stored (and archived) cryptographic hash of the recordings. Not really a need for zero trust if you can produce proof of authenticity.
Same. It's increasingly my default browser in all my devices.

I went from Yahoo to Google and really valued their product but they became so poor overtime. So focused on spiking their results with ads and then, much worse to me, hiding news and other content based on US centric biased narratives that apparently we all need to follow.

It was very apparent and annoying.
I want to also mention an SRS site that has gotten really polished and isn't nearly as well known as Quizlet and Memrise and the rest - and it's not open source - but the science and the polish are all there (you can even create cards while watching a Youtube video and it will link to that spot in the video as an optional source reference) - it's called iDoRecall.com, worth checking out. (I found it in an old thread here on Hacker News where the creator posted about it when it was new - I followed the link and was stunned at how polished it had become)
Proving a problem is np-complete should not be news. what should be news is when a problem has a P algo. (example, primes is in P)

Because there must be a coordinated effort to change the default or at least increase the diversity of layouts. Otherwise it's like teaching esperanto, putting them into a very small minority for little benefit.

Even as a technical user for decades I find it too burdensome to swim upstream with a niche layout, and I already have remapped copy-paste.

The game is trying to demonstrate that content moderation, even using simple explicit rules, is hard and will lead to disagreements.

My parents are members of several museums and societies in their large city. Now normally the member benefits provide tickets and passes multiple times per year that present opportunities for locals to visit the museums "for free" because they are already paying members. (There are also free days for everyone.)

But my parents are part of that sizable minority of members who never go to these places on their own. So every time I visited home, there would be an appreciable pile of passes and vouchers on the mantelpiece, and Mom and Dad would encourage me to take a friend, or my sister, and have an outing with the free passes, so we could at least use them up.

So this is the case in my family. Now I can see where people who love visiting museums become members in their own towns, get free passes, and visit there often, right in their backyard. I can also see people becoming members because they love entertaining visitors and they can show those visitors a good time if they have a supply of free passes on-hand and ready for when someone new comes around.
How is it relevant in this case?
It does take away your decision by default. This is opt-out, not in.
You don't get to choose when it happens or to what version.
This is a totally different beast than rustup.
But the Ferengis changed their society to include “fe-males” due to internal politics and change from within. It wasn’t instituted from the outside, it was Ferengi society advancing via the means of their own political system.

I think that speaks highly of the Ferengi social system.
We have a service that uses Go http proxy for implementing a reverse proxy.

Upgrading to Go 1.16 introduced an unexplained performance drop. We suspect it is due to how it flushes when the content length is not known (typical for streaming). In earlier versions of Go, the call to flush was less frequent and in other versions, flush was called on every write. As a team, we sunk a lot of time trying to debug this and finally changed some of the application architecture/logic to circumvent these overheads.
Nice marketing piece.

It’s too dangerous to release until enough buzz is built about how dangerous it is. Then it will be released (or “leaked”).

I mean a more logic situation was if Italy and Germany both pay ESA, and ESA contracts the launch vehicle from Germany but maybe the space station module from Italy.

But one project often is to large a part of the budget so instead of doing it per project, the split each project into tiny pieces and hand that to each government.

However this is also changing a bit. For Ariane 6 they specifically went away from that and allow industry (Ariane Group) to ignore that to a certain extent.
So, maybe we need use the Jury system then, say 9 of them, with diversified backgrounds(e.g. 3 liberals, 3 conservatives, 3 independents, also consider age and gender,etc), and they vote online for edge cases, majority wins.

it will not be optimal, but better than a group of censors who share the same ideology and bias, or even worse, one or too persons make the calls randomly based on their own likes and dislikes.

Or design an AI agent to do that and save manual labor, but do let a jury to check its results regularly to make sure it works as expected, as much as possible.
Not really, the improvements don’t break the solution in any way. There’s no “Chestersons Fence”. They’re much simpler than you seem to be assuming.

And in the same encounter, the attending physician said I should try to measure my blood pressure 5 times per day. I was a little shocked at that, too, and when I told my PCP, he calmly informed me that that attending physician was also largely composed of bovine manure, and once a day is a perfectly good cadence for monitoring blood pressure.

Needless to say, I haven't returned to that urgent care facility.
Doesn't seem like this dynamic's changed much since 2009 when the article was originally published.

Taking the maker's schedule into consideration in small companies seems relatively easy - especially when the CEO's coding alongside you. But I'd be interested to know if there are any medium- to large-sized companies who actively think about this and deal with this problem successfully as opposed to just always giving in to the manager's schedule.
