This seems like a silly argument. By the same token, we can argue that Rust doesn’t think engineers can be trusted because it pushes a bunch of type and memory safety onto the compiler instead of letting the engineers manage it as their ancestors did. Of course, they were right to do so—we shouldn’t trust engineers with all of these tedious, error-prone processes. And while Rust solves for memory safety with borrow checking, that turns out to be a pretty limited solution from a productivity perspective (or at least that seems to be the majority opinion among people who have extensive experience with both languages) compared to borrow checkers—sometimes it’s appropriate to trade productivity for performance/correctness, but many times it isn’t.
Is the author trying to build themselves a spice rack or many spice racks for all the world? In one of those cases, yes, you would want a factory, but that isn't this case.

The same is true for code. Are you writing one application or are you writing the same application for many different customers? In one of those cases you would benefit from some sort of template but in the other case it all the extra stuff to scale just gets in the way.

If you want your one self-serving spice rack to scale then just plan ahead and make it bigger than your current needs so that you can add more spice later. Again, that also applies to code. If you want your one application to scale then just plan ahead. Jumping immediately into a framework only indicates you lack the confidence to make appropriate planning decisions.

The real value of University for me was having the freedom to read extensively both within and outside the degree curriculum. My family were working-class but education was fully-funded which affected how I used my time. Sure, there were also many students who viewed the whole process as preparation for a career but some of us took it as an opportunity to explore intellectually.
m:n threads is the basis of every non-embedded operating system, so I wouldn't say that model's been retired or is even under plausible threat. Loom and such are refitting Java with it, for example. The only problem with m:n is that it requires a thread-aware runtime to fully implement the abstraction.

The story kinda ends at its climax, and abruptly ends upon reaching the `class EventFactoryFactoryFactory` and fails to explain why it was needed or what it did, concretely
I can understand how `InboundRequestContextFinderProviderFactory` comes about, hopefully due to a very mature, thorough testing environment where your `InboundRequestContextFinder` is injected via a provider and that provider needs to be constructed for different environments.

Though it does seem like perhaps the Finder itself is possibly an unnecessary abstraction.

Frankly, the longer I work, the more comfortable I am seeing these kinds of things. They can be misused, but they are also necessary for some really good things too. The absurd names are funny, but also somewhat standardized enough to be a signal on their own.

Ask HN: Laid off –> solo founder. Do I look like I'm trying to hide something?
Before I was laid off, I'd been working on a side project and had been looking for an excuse to quit my job to commit to it fully. I have quite a lot saved, and now I can survive off severance alone for over a year.

My fear is that should I return to the job market, I'll look like I'm trying to cover up a long period of unemployment on my resume. Employers would see that I only committed to this project after being laid off.

At any rate, it wouldn't be much of a handicap signal.
I've 100% noticed a steep decline in the quality of things like grammar, sentence structure, spelling, and syntax in the last few weeks.

It can really depend on the nature of the vulnerability and who discovered it. Based on the timeline at the bottom of this article it seems like this was way too slow. Based on the cve information this was ranked as 9.8. The last time I dealt with a bug that bad it was log4j. It was found on a Tuesday, patched on a Thursday, announced on a Friday, and I redeployed all of our servers over the weekend.

The most egregious part in my eyes is the slow response to the initial contact. In shows that Service Now does not monitor it's reporting and that they don't care about security. If I were using a product of theirs to handle proprietary or privileged information I would no longer trust them.
Weirdo lawyers are not the same as lawyers engaging in gross misconduct, and except for getting them into jail either as an employee of the federal executive branch or as a personal lawyer (but mostly propagandist) for its then-current head, Rudy Giuliani hasn’d done anything for the poor and marginalized as a lawyer. Certainly, he has never served them as their counsel.

(And not sure what he's done in other capacities for the poor and marginalized is a net win, either.)

So the last point is a fair one. Tech companies have a history of skirting laws to achieve market share, then using their customer base to get the law changed.

That isn’t what’s happening here though. The driverless car companies don’t have customers yet except for a small pool of beta testers, so there’s no constituency to advocate for them like there was with Uber/Lyft.

The State of California, anticipating that the development of self-driving cars would inevitable cause tensions, set up an expert board within the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC.)

This board is empowered to set safety and operations standards. These standards lay out rules for approval, including for accident safety, data reporting, and disruptions to city services such as the ones you mentioned.)

The driverless car companies have to meet these standards to be able to expand their operations in SF.

The driverless car companies have made significant improvements, empowered by better auto-segmentation and labeling. This incidents do occur less, are on their way to being totally eliminated, and the data now shows that they are safer than human drivers in SF.

The driverless car companies are seeking to expand operations, having met the criteria the State of California itself laid out, including for safety and prevention of disrupting public services.

Let me be clear: I am not opposed to guerrilla protest action in and of itself. And frankly this was a really cool hack in many ways: in effect, use of materials readily at hand, and virality potential.

But on this topic, the driverless car companies did things the right way. We should reward them for regulatory cooperation to reinforce that behavior in the future.

And they delivered an awesome piece of tech!

It’s a car that doesn’t need a driver! Just goes where you tell it while you relax!

It’s a miracle, and we built it here in SF.

For now, our community is bleeding people, tax dollars, and soon public services. We all want to prevent that.

To do so, we all need to row in the same direction for a while. We need the hacking cleverness of this campaign put toward getting SF back on its feet, and a big part of that is selling complex tech only our people can make to other cities that need it, then using that money to fund everything else we want to do here.
Have you seen how much San Francisco and Seattle have improved with drug tolerant policies?
It's basically the same for typed languages. If you want to map JSON to a typed data structure, you need a serialization library to do that.

JavaScript has a very simple built-in json reader/writer that does no type checking and returns some nested dictionaries or arrays. If you want more, you need a library (for example zod). Or you just trust the data to have the right shape.
Any half-decent site rate limits push actions like posting and following, including Mastodon, Lemmy, and Hacker News. Otherwise you have massive bot spam DoS.

Ideally a site has data dumps, and maybe even allows you to access static content without a rate limit because that is cheap. I wouldn’t expect this on Threads. In fact, I doubt Threads is much better than Twitter on restricted access, the reasons people want threads are different (mainly, no premium boosting and no Elon)
It always trips me out reading early 20th century novels where the protagonist will stop in a drug store, buy a pint of whiskey, some cocaine or other now schedule 1 drug, and then sit down at the soda fountain counter and have lunch. Talk about one stop shopping.

On a related tangent, Heroin is actually a former trademark. Not a lapsed one, but one that was specifically revoked to punish Bayer during the war. Aspirin was another one. And that's why you see generic "aspirin" but no generic explicitly marketed as "xerox" or "kleenex." The kleenex mark is weakened, but not dead like aspirin and heroin.
A more rigorous curriculum? Maybe no. But better teachers? Absolutely yes. There is more to teaching than lecturing in front of a blackboard.

If it's the case that "there are new tools coming, but most of them aren't out yet" - and I believe it is[0] - then the overall userbase of ChatGPT doesn't matter to OpenAI, because soon enough the same models will come back with a vengeance, in a different, more streamlined form.

In fact, I feel that the major change will happen if and when Microsoft gets their Office 365 and Windows copilots working and properly released: they'll have instant penetration into every industry, including scientists, lawyers, doctors, and office workers.

I have operated a organigram app for the past 5 years. One of the bigger user segments is these so called ORM agencies. They use the app to keep track of their large "teams", assign tasks, etc. A team can be as large as 12,000 members

At first I didn't know what to think. Then I learned that their teams are mostly made up of illiterate people who need a few bucks to survive. I don't blame them. Online reviews are useless, if you need to know something ask someone you know, don't just take the opinion of someone on the griftnet
> Frameworks' key trait is that they impose limitations on the programmer. Rather than providing a set of new things the programmer can do, they establish a boundary on the things the programmer can do.

Simply stated and very insightful.

This is a way better article than the posted one.

Another way of thinking about this is that a framework is a regulating authority on a tragedy of the commons. The commons in the case of software is complexity. Too much complexity becomes impossible to manage and grinds development to a halt.

I don't know about this. I got onto Facebook circa 2007 when it expanded from Harvard to other universities and man did I love it for a few years. Facebook really ended up being a major extension of my college experience. That was when it was just students, and it really had that new freshman undergrad social feel to it where it was all about linking up with new people you just met and seeing what they're up to and flirting and sharing pics and planning events.

I kind of feel like Google was onto something with the "circles" idea and it's not clear to me why something like that didn't catch on. I don't want to share everything with the whole world. My college friends, my professional contacts, my family - these are all social circles that I'd want to be connected to with a service like this, but in separate buckets that don't overlap (or only somewhat overlap).

So from a user's point of view, exclusive/invite-only can be really appealing. But if you're thinking from a "make as much money for the company as possible" point of view then yeah anything that limits the number of potential customers you can attract is going to hurt.

It does become a channel mess. The trick I use is to code everything using the same patterns (down to the same characters, name conventions, line breaks, etc) as much as I can so i can use the text editor to work (refactor) that mass. It's definitely the less funny part and why I'll still use clojure and it's async.io module whenever it makes sense (lots of different data). That way, I macro myself out of that problem.

Now if you cant use another language, change project. Go is not perl nor python, it's a sophisticated C. Use a sophisticated C for the wrong project / product and you'll want to kill yourself.
Generics!

func streamingApply[T any](ch channel[T], fn func(T)){
for {
select {

case item, ok = <-ch:

fn(item)
}
}
}

For everyone that's complained about generics being introduced to go...It really does help clean up this type of repetition.
Tumblr leftism was much more contained though, it was hard to peer pressure targets and journalists outside the scene looking for easy stories had no ability to reproduce the gossip and slander.

Twitter's mechanics are a shouting competition, with 10% of users making up 90% of tweets, while giving users tremendous power over public figure's profiles. It turned leftist discourse into a more violent /r9k/ with a minority skin and corporate backing. I don't think the move towards a short-form platform had a non-trivial influence in this shift.

The lesson here is the other way around: you go where you look. The author's own bike example says that and it's a standard lesson in driving school (hence "eyes on the road"). You do it while lifting bc when you look straight ahead you adopt what turns out to be the right posture for lifting (it's symmetrical and "straight" so that your lift will be symmetrical too).

This property was used amusingly in Neal Stephenson's novel "Zodiac": since drivers steer where they look, wearing bright, high-viz clothing while cycling increases the chance you will be hit by a car. Thus the only way to cycle safely in Boston is to use the "ninja approach to biking": no reflectors, paint everything black (no shiny rims, crank, etc), wear only black clothes, and no helmet so you can hear danger approaching.

The reason we want typescript to have java-like features is because we work on teams which have decided, outside of our control, that we are going to write our backend in JS/TS simply because it's easier for the bootcamp grads to transition to backend since they already know JS on the frontend. If we wrote our backend in Java, it would require the bootcamp grads to learn a new language, which they're not prepared to do. Choosing typescript or javascript on the backend is not about choosing the right tool for the job (because they are objectively not the right tool for backend development). It is mostly about minimizing the cost of our labor sourcing

As such, RTTI would make typescript go from a compromise language (we use it because we are stuck in the JS ecosystem, not because it's a good tool) to a legitimately useful backend language (We use it because it has the right features for the use-case)

If I could choose what language we use on the backend, I would leave the JS ecosystem entirely and write everything in .Net. But it's difficult to find .Net developers since every bootcamp these days produces react developers

Yes, I don’t understand how someone who is basically content with their employer decides they’re going to write a Glassdoor review. Why bother, you have better things to do. But if you’re pissed you might. Most reviews are glowing and decidedly fake or really negative.
I think there's a vast gulf between abject pessimism, and the sort of useless optimism encapsulated in the casual statement, "Solve poverty" don't you? If someone asked you how people could live longer, you wouldn't be helpfully engaging if the response was, "Solve death."
I am not sure they could have done anything different, but that's the point - if law enforcement officers can witness someone doing something illegal, but there is no point in enforcing the law, there is a bigger problem.

You’re making an argument in favor of Go: Go only makes you think about ownership in proportion to the amount of shared mutable state in your program. Many Go programs don’t have any shared mutable state and the ones that do often limit this state to a small kernel that manages the ownership details. In Rust, every single program has to deal with ownership, and the burden is proportional to that of the total amount of state in the program (not just the shared mutable bit).

Further still, “it’s better for the compiler to check your work reliably” is limited to the shared mutable state that is completely in the purview of a single process—if you have a networked resource or a file that is accessed by multiple processes, rustc won’t save you. In Go’s niche (web services, daemons, etc), this is the overwhelming majority of all state.
I wouldn't be so certain. Under US law that may be false due to it lacking originality. For example, a photograph of a public domain painting is itself considered public domain [1]. This is not the same in all countries though, e.g. not the UK [2]

True.

However, registration of new cars is up quite a bit in Germany.
EVs actually outpaced Diesel in Germany. [0]

A lot of those sales are from purchases from 2022 though as companies couldn't produce enough then because of chip shortage.

VW, and EVs, in Germany are dropping a bit but that's not necessarily because people don't want EVs on principal. Last year was the energy crisis and some people are now stuck with contracts paying 50Cents/kWh. Inflation is still high and Germany is in a recession. Some analyst argue that car sales will have slump this year, not just EVs, because of this.

Volkswagen, and the rest of the German manufacturers in particular, also have no cheap EV cars.
The cheapest EV car VW has is the e-up which is a miniature city car and that starts at 30k. The gas version starts at 14k. It's no wonder, even with subsidies, that they have issues selling them.
