Seems like most people are commenting in the context of web apps but I find ORMs are most useful on the client side (mobile/desktop apps) where objects can be long lived and you want to take advantage of ORM specific patterns like identity maps (https://martinfowler.com/eaaCatalog/identityMap.html) so you don't have multiple conflicting versions of an object in memory.

If you're writing a web app and just pulling data from a database and dumping it to HTML or JSON then yeah it matters way less whether those database rows get materialized into objects before getting rendered to output, because you're throwing the objects out at the end of the request anyway.
Also check out systemd-nspawn on linux. Another nice container solution, built in, that seems to be relatively little known.
> The Questions You Should Ask

Very carefully chosen questions that tiptoe around the elephant in the room

"Does my data stay local, and do I opt-IN to sending it to your servers?"
It still needs to turn the query results back into objects.
Anyone with a birth day after the transition day will become two years younger when the change goes into effect, assuming the article’s description is correct (which it may not be.)

Under the old system you were one year old at birth, and a year older at the beginning of the next year (not, as one might expect, at their next birth day.) That means at the beginning of the year on which under the more common system one would be not-yet-one, a person under the Korean system would be two (unless they were born on the first day of the year, when they would be only one.)

"Why is it that the mechanism is "one parry can do what it wants unless the other party complains" instead of "one party can only do what it agreed to"?

Because that concept is consistent with all of US law -
See third party standing, third party beneficiaries, etc.

In the US, you usually can't raise claims on behalf of others, whether they are constitutional, contractual, etc.

This was not a surprise to anyone involved - the US, SBF, the bahamas, the lawyers, etc.

They are all quite aware of this.

You can argue this mechanism sucks, or is bad, but the answer to your question is because that's what all of US law says everywhere - this is not some unique feature of extradition. It's a core concept common across both civil and criminal law.
I would have thought that purpleair was the best-known consumer brand. It looks like this May they introduced API pricing? But honestly, it still seems very reasonable

https://community.purpleair.com/t/api-pricing/
I disagree with your example.

I know it's only tangential to the topic being discussed, but it's quite important, so I'll elaborate.

I used to be anti-gay. So, in PG's words, ~P (why did he choose "~" instead of "!"? ~ is bitwise not in c++, while ! is boolean not. It's going to remain one of the mysteries of life). Now I'm not only pro-gay, pro-trans, etc, but thankful that I live in a country that is free, and gay and trans people, and all people, can decide for themselves what life they want to live, and to consider that they don't need approval from the rest of the society, or actually, that the rest of the society owes them an approval for their life choices.

But why was I anti-gay? Because that is what I learned as a kid. Kids learn from adults. Especially during teenage years, they are rebellious, but in reality, they still take their value clues from adults. And once you are an adult, and hold some values, it's difficult to think that they values you've held all your life were wrong. So you come up with excuses. Like the Bible thing. I grew in an atheist society, so that was not my excuse. My excuse was simply that I was raised thinking that it's wrong to be gay. That was it. In time I changed my argument into "Gay people want to get marriage benefits from the government", but someone pointed to me that gay people pay taxes too. So, after a while I realized that whatever arguments I had were hallow. But most people don't go through what PG call the journey from ~P to P. Their brain doesn't allow them too.

Find a way to help them.
You're listing CentOS Stream as a positive thing IBM created?

No. That was their excuse for cancelling CentOS.
If you remember, it was universally unpopular.
I'm generally sympathetic to much of what this article is arguing, but I really wish everybody would agree to stop using "the Left" / "the Right" as if they were meaningful descriptors. Strive for more nuance, not less. I firmly believe that a large percentage of politically sensitive arguments would calm down if people would be specific about what they have a problem with and not try and generalize it.

Also, see Betteridge.
It could be you if you're lucky!

A Korean born on, say, 2001 December 1st would have been one year old in 2001, two years old in 2002, and 23 years old today, based on the traditional counting. In Western counting, the person would be 21 years old today.
ORMs are fine so long as they are used exactly what they are intended for, which is to make your job easier. As soon as the ORM [inevitably] gets in the way, just bypass it and write straight SQL.

What drives me nuts is when I work with engineers who insist that we do all database queries through the ORM, no exceptions, just in case (TM) we someday switch from MySQL to PostgreSQL or whatever. That day has never come anywhere I've worked. It's generally a fantasy.

If you're going to invest in a tool, invest in the database, not the ORM. You're more likely to save time writing complex queries in SQL than in the highly unlikely circumstance you need to suddenly switch database technologies.
The Korean approach does not account for preconception well at all. It counts the number of calendar years a person has been present for postpartum.

A person's Korean age starts at 1 sal, and increments at New Years. A baby could be born on December and be 2 sal by January. A baby born in January would be 1 sal until next year, and be considered 1 sal younger than the December baby, even though they were only born 1 month apart. Everyone born in the same calendar year is in the same age cohort.
Right when my wife and I bought. Great.
A major theme appears to be the transformative effect these substances can have on our perspectives and patterns of thought. However, it's crucial to remember that these are not magical cure-alls and their effects can vary greatly. Also, an ego-centric belief that one has discovered a profound 'truth' while high can lead to arrogance. Moreover, the risks associated with these substances shouldn't be overlooked, and the potential for misuse is real. Lastly, the need for rigorous scientific studies on the effects and efficacy of microdosing is apparent. It's fascinating, yet we must tread with caution.
Maybe IQAir? They do have paid plans, it looks like.
The title is accurate and captures the significance, because they aren’t change legal minimum ages, so its not just an age counting change: everyone is getting a year younger (or maybe two for some people, if the article’s description is correct) with respect to legal age criteria.
"Almost everyone else in the world uses metric in everyday life."

RLY? Hello from the UK! Here we are metricated in general and then it goes a bit mad. As you know we generally have at least five ways of saying the same thing. Well actually we don't any more. Mostly metricated but we still have inches and feet etc hanging on in there.

I suspect that most other countries are the same. I recall (my Mum) buying stuff in West German markets by der pfund (slightly larger than the Imperial pound, I think).

We used to measure spirits by the gill and when we joined the EU after a while we metricated most of our measures to this: https://www.gov.uk/weights-measures-and-packaging-the-law/sp...

We still drink pints (obvs!)
One does not preclude the other. Working in an office can have been having a bad time regardless of whether there were viable alternatives (for most people). As an introvert my entire in-office existence was bad. I did not have an alternative. But now I do and I will cling to it as long as I can.

Productivity is also a relative measure in that sense. Sure you were productive. A farmer a few hundred years ago can have been productive for the times he was living in. Compare it with a modern farm and he's outclassed and not "productive" at all.
"The Progressives", "The Conservatives", and "The Reactionaries" best fits America, but I imagine it would be more confusing to European audiences.

There's actually maximal profit to be made by building affordable housing (i.e. dense condos that make efficient use of expensive land). The only problem is that it's illegal in most places.
Hey I'm sure this all makes sense to lawyers :-)

Anyway I understood your point, thanks for making the effort.
I want to know how it was ascertained that this technology is "non-human".
That’s a feature for the end customer, not a bug. I honestly think it’s the biggest reason Toyota is so anti-EV. It’s a lot easier to make a reliable EV than an ICE car.
Before giving my anecdotal response I want to say I’m well into the senior end of the spectrum. Maybe that disqualifies me but maybe it doesn’t.

Anyway, my previous company was about 100 people and purely remote. I had a brilliant manager who taught me a lot. We did pair sessions and worked through stuff together via Zoom or Google (really can’t remember what video chat we used). Remote was never a problem.

Now I work at a company of about 200k and I’m in the office most of the time. Every single one of my brain cells is atrophying. I haven’t learned anything in the 18 months I’ve been here.

People yearn for "a room of their own"[1], a sanctuary for contemplation and creativity. There was a time when our minds and pieces of paper were the only canvases for our imaginations, but increasingly our web browsers have morphed into thought surveillance systems. Now, the tide is turning back towards private creative spaces, enhanced by generative AI. Even if there are attempts to ban it, the edge now lies with private AI. In the future, we might even have the ability to run even more powerful models on standard hardware.

Moreover, we must consider the defensive strategies against other AI entities that will soon permeate the internet. Operating much like a firewall, private AI models could safeguard users from external threats such as involuntary data breaches and misinformation. This will be an endless cat-and-mouse game akin to battling security exploits or viruses—there's no one-size-fits-all solution. Venturing into the internet without your AI shield may soon be as unthinkable as stepping outside without a mask amidst a pandemic like COVID.

They may be referring to the changes to PurpleAir API [0] that introduces paid requests that you can rip through quickly when doing large scale analysis.

In the United States, AirNow.gov includes most PurpleAir sensors, although they are annotated differently than “higher quality” sensors (I was going to say than government sensors, but here in Connecticut, the state has a number of PurpleAir monitors deployed and rapidly deployed more when stuff got bad due to Canadian wildfires a few weeks ago).

Fortunately, for local users, you can hit your own sensor and grab the data however often you want. I even wrote a tool to help out and drop it into influxdb and post it to MQTT[1]. They still support local fetching of data. However, many default integrations from tools like Home Assistant could be affected as they use the cloud integration.

Pretty much every recipe written since literally the 1890s / Fannie Farmer already has pulled out ingredients and quantities into their own separate section from steps.

To use cooklang, it appears that I have to rewrite recipes to include ingredients inline. No other recipes tend to use this style, because it is harder to read.

If I write recipes in cooklang, the plain text of the recipes is harder to understand without tools that speak cooklang, forcing me to use the tools to get an understandable format. The output of the CLI tool seems like a better format than the format itself!
One interesting thing is if the model can’t fit into GPU memory (sharded across multiple chips) it would be much slower. So one chip would take more than a month.

That’s why these clusters are so valuable, even with Nvidias margins they are still cheaper than using less compute for longer.
Yup. And I love when there’s a well-built escape hatch for this in whatever ORM you use.

In Django you can just write your own SQL for a query and then say, “trust me, this query will populate this structure.” So the moment you measure performance and it’s a problem, you can just opt to DIY without having to rewrite much of anything.

And of course if you need to go further, go nuts. There’s nothing locking you in.

> I just couldn’t resist the music of a rhythm.

So you found the rhetorical aesthetic of the “You know… right?” pattern to be satisfying and useful in this conversation!

>…a good tactic to make this point without escalating, I’ve found.

That makes sense I suppose, but I think we can agree that your next sentence:

> There is almost no circumstance where “you know … right?” makes you worthwhile, pleasurable, or persuasive to talk to

Was very much an escalation. It looks like you would’ve been more effective if you’d stuck with your explicitly favored strategy of using the “You know… right?” pattern.

You know you’ve made a compelling argument in favor of speaking in this manner, right?
Personally I like not having to either write my own model functions which just map back to sql, or having to write a boilerplate php to do parameterized queries correctly. Eloquent abstracts enough of that crap out of my way i can focus on the logic.

Sincerely someone rewriting an 'old' php app that is just arrays and queries to something using models and eloquent, what a game changer

> Macs ship with SIP enabled and it's easy to disable, I don't know what the (comparable) issue is there?

I generally use a Mac too, connected to Linux systems, but from the last time I disabled Secure Boot on a PC, the process was press F2 for Setup, go to the System tab in the BIOS, and uncheck Secure Boot, Save.

It's not particularly harder than a Mac: Restart in Recovery Mode, Launch a terminal, `csrutil disable`, Reboot.

> though for requiring it I suppose

Just like Mac "requires" it? I guess I just don't see how this is a "Windows sucks compared to Mac, let alone Linux" thing.
> You don’t mean ‘foreign made’, you mean ‘cheaply imported’.

The price of them being imported does not have the same meaning to me that I think you want it to have. Why are we pussy footing around this? Shit is just made with less quality than it was "back in the day". Even shit made in the USofA is of lower quality than it used to be, so it's not just something "foreign made". Why? Because consumers did not want to pay for quality. Making it right is expensive. Good quality assurance is expensive. Manufactures trying to get ahead decided to start cutting costs and lowering quality and lowering QA standards, and consumers bought that shit up left, right, and center. People decided they preferred to have cheap things now, and if it breaks and it's still cheap, then just replace cheap with cheap.

This is not any different than companies looking for short term profits to make stockholders happy rather than what's better for long term results for the stockholders or the company itself. So, it's not just a thing evident in manufacturing but in all business.

We (the royal we) have lost long term vision in pretty much all aspects
>250 miles is nearby in American west.

californian: it is not. that's a 3-4 hour drive and can get you from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. If I'm driving that far to meet someone, it better be some crazy rare item that can't be shipped, not for groceries.

Even as someone raised in the rual parts of California, the nearest walmart was "only" 40 miles away or so in the 90's.
ORM is a crutch. One of the things that has always separated good developers from great developers, is that the great developers are masters of database querying.
Not even the exception, in the best case something like 1-2% of users click adds on average. The median user won't interact with them, advertising isn't for the median user. It's also fair to say this topic is explicitly focused on ads, therefore on people who would click on ads.
Oh sorry, I don't mean old engineers who actually keep up with tech. There are plenty of people who are young and don't care about improving their skills, and plenty of old people who are smarter than everyone else. I think part of it is also that my awareness of this is from big companies that do military contract type stuff, and there's a lot of people who have just been around forever and climbed the corporate ladder with things other than engineering skills who are not good at communicating with engineers. Though I guess this is now a selection bias because in twenty years maybe the zoomers will be in charge and do the same thing :P
Speaking for myself, I have a home server. I bought it almost 9 years ago, and the server (haswell-grade xeon) is still perfectly ok for home-server stuff, like a NAS and plex. When I set up the server, I picked CentOS 7 because I wanted a simple, boring OS that got updates for a long time. Sure, I could have used Debian or Ubuntu, and done an OS upgrade every 3-5 years, but I just wanted to avoid it.

Last year, with RH cancelling CentOS, I switched to Rocky expecting another 8+ years of updates. We'll see how that pans out.

I think the headline and the first half of the article are just... wrong? https://heated.world/p/climate-activists-are-not-coming which links to the relevant city record https://www.nyc.gov/assets/dcas/downloads/pdf/cityrecord/cit... which talks about particulate emissions, not carbon emissions. And the Post article switches to talking about particulates halfway through.
>make easier logical sense in day-to-day life

The fact that the metric system is decimal and all conversions essentially consist of moving a point around are much more trivial. 1000 millimeters is a meter. 100 centimeters is a meter. 10 millimeters is a centimeters. it's in the name. Same for liters, same for kilogram. You don't need to do math, you just move a separator. It's not arbitrary, that's the big advantage.

Especially when you jump several magnitudes. 3.5 liters is 3500 milliliters. What's 3.5 gallons in ounces?
eight ounces are one cup, two cups are a pint and two pint are a quart IIRC but then four quarts are a gallon? And there's more units. I always forget them and I actually tried to learn them.
That's a survivorship bias. You're counting the few things that survived, and discounting the majority that didn't.

Of course there is nothing inherently less dependable about something made in Japan compared to the United States. But things made cheaply are generally less dependable, and a lot of that stuff was made on the cheap for a reason: to break into the U.S. market.
"Unispace finds that nearly half (42%) of companies that mandated office returns witnessed a higher level of employee attrition than they had anticipated."

They've done a good job of hiding the RTOS from you and making most sketches run fine without porting, but you're still running as a task under the RTOS, yielding between loop() calls[1]. This leads to mysterious timing issues if you aren't aware of it[2]

It doesn't appear that the Arduino core for the Renesas chip is using the RTOS, at least by default -- its main loop is literally doing while (1) { loop(); }, similar to how the AVR core works. [3, 4]
