I can understand a person who is only able to work part time but the FTE of part time + part time should equate to some level of full time compensation. That includes a livable income. If something isn't livable it is because there is a race to the bottom which is happening now because company greed ensures profits above a fluid economy. The economy needs to flow not stagnate to ensure everyone has enough money.
I don't think that is correct. HTTP is managed by applications, but TCP packets are managed in the OS kernel. That distinction determines your options of approach and how things interact when parsing transport negotiation mechanisms.

Covid was appeals to authority all the way down. The whole plot rested on “shut up, disengage your brain and listen to these people we decided to label as ‘experts’”.

Experts don’t get to make policy decisions. Ever. That isn’t their job. Our reaction to covid was living proof of why that should never, ever happen.
For what it's worth, I am certainly in the second camp - in general (without reference to this specific example), it's certainly possible for people to behave abusively towards others without even realising that they're doing it. One can be responding to internal pressures without thought for how those responses affect those around them.
Could you expand on this?

I hadn't heard of tRPC until a developer I was working with raved about it and it just seemed like such an obvious good after I learned about it.

We built a T3 app (tRPC, Next.js, Tailwind, TypeScript, Prisma) together (if you'd like to check it out https://github.com/stytchauth/stytch-t3-example).

Type safe APIs while working in TypeScript is just so helpful.
Much as many people here have a deep abiding dislike for executives, that's probably a pretty typical lifestyle for successful executives at a large company (or a startup) to which you can probably add months of every year on the road.

You're seriously arguing that someone with general knowledge of programming is going to get hard-stuck not knowing specifics of a language you and thousands of others have blogposted about for years, while linking your own posts?

Let's be real here. What percentage of companies are in dire need of 'experienced [language] programmers' who know these specifics that haven't already been set by previous devs or have another developer present to make the decisions? That's a tiny, tiny percentage of the entire job market, with much of the demand coming from companies with incredibly shaky foundations.

Almost the entirety of this is a luxury problem put on the individual. The moment the job market says they can't demand it anymore, they won't.
I don't think you're disagreeing to the extent that you think you are because the original post says "I'm ok, the bull is dead" like some sort of riddle.

Either way, the delivery on the phone is not limited to the order of the clauses, it's also in the tone of voice. Saying "I hit a bull" while sobbing conveys something entirely different than calmly stating "I hit a bull." Over the phone the entirety of the message can be heard and the order matters less.

> Maybe it'll be a little higher than 'sex in regular cars' but I doubt it'll be measurable.

It's going to be super measurable and that's why there's already an article about it: if you're two in a regular car, with one person driving, you can't really have sex (it's doable I guess but dangerous and illegal).

Now if you're three in a regular car, with a driver, the two that could have sex typically wouldn't (for privacy reasons: they don't want to do it next to the driver, except in some cases).

I don't doubt that some regular cab drivers had people having sex in their taxi but I'm willing to bet that 99% of the time when they take two people, these two people aren't having sex.

It is still not clear to me why it is necessary to store the type information inline. I'm absolutely not an expert, but I thought that some GC'd languages had stack layout metadata[1], to figure out the type of each stack slot. Similarly heap allocated data should have an associated type layout info.

New ideas getting shot down for fear of cannibalizing existing revenue.

The product that was the breakthrough is likely (somewhat) wonderful and loved (or at least used) by many and generates the bulk of your revenue. However we all know that solution that has gotten you this far has problems and there are many ideas to be able to go to the next level.

But any idea that is seen to take away from the focus of that main revenue generator will be fought unless there is VERY strong leadership. Anything "new" will impact marketing budgets, Sales incentives and revenue goals, threaten those who are working on the "legacy" project, not to mention external forces who are only interested in the bottom line revenue and EBITDA numbers for the next quarter, not the next 1, 3 and 5 years.

I've had this happen at 2 startups I've been through. Both had successful exits, but could've been more and build a much better future path for themselves.

Now trying to avoid this in my current home.

What if Apple had stopped the iPhone for fear of it cannibalizing* the iPod line of products revenue?

All welfare for the working poor is corporate welfare in reality.

Walmart doesn't pay a wage that would allow its employees to be housed, showered and fed as they report to work and yet, they get employees that are and all the benefits that come with it. They should be hiring exclusively from the homeless at the rate they wish to pay.

Anti-Asian hate crimes are a real thing, but both black and white Americans endure them at a higher rate[1]. Further, these types of attacks went up across the board during the pandemic however Asian based hate crimes represented only ~8% of these attacks with most other ethnic groups having way more attacks targeted at them[2].
Seems to me like an example of cherry picked statistics being used for political gain. Asian hate crimes being something that became way more common during the pandemic is simply not grounded in reality.

50% of the Harvard class are not legacy. It's nowhere close to that number.

Of course Harvard (one of the best universities in the world) deserves USG grants.

Wealthy legacy families don't allow their kids to be grad students. They set them up with jobs and internships. Rich people generally do not teach. I'd bet that the percentage of legacy grad students is far lower than of legacy undergrads.
True, but output is highly correlated with prosperity in most places and through most of history for which we have data. Increased lifespan is also generally understood to be positive.

Yes.

I used to get really bad colds 3-5 times a year, for as long back as I can remember (afaik, I never got Covid, though). Now, it's been longer than a year since I last got sick.

However, I only wore a mask when forced to, as mask usage was generally only recommended and almost never mandatory during the pandemic.

Rather than masks, I think the most likely reason is that people who get sick nowadays are much more likely to stay at home, and probably also that everyone washes their hands more often.
So, my comment was flagged for simply stating the fact that not all police are bad people. Great, we'll done HN.

As someone who lived in Baltimore City for 20 years, and was forced out due to uncontrollable crime, I can say from first hand experience that good police officers exist and they are heros.

After:
1. My house was robbed. Police responded and worked to connect my incident with others in the area to find the peeps and hold them accountable.

2. My neighbor was mugged/beaten while getting into his car in front of his house. Police responded within a minute and took care (even though the perps got away).

3. A woman a block away from my house was mugged (face fully "punched in," purse snatched). After hearing blood curtling screams I ran out, saw the perps run around the corner, I ran out in my bare feet to take chase, turned two corners (2 city blocks) and the police already had the perp on the ground in cuffs.

Say and flag what you want if it makes you feel better about yourself, but know that when you live in a city overrun by crime, and good people (who are actually our fellow citizens) who protect others daily - you realize how important and brave those folks are.

Not all are good (as evidenced in the OP). Not all are bad. Yes, the system is broken and needs to evolve. But I recommend you put your life on the line in the street, protecting strangers for meager pay, before sitting in your gaming chair and make sweeping claims about good people who are actually trying to improve society.

Call out bad police. Fix the system. Absolutely, but broad generalizations (effectively using lazy heuristics) are at the root of hate and discontent in the world.
Yes, this is true, but then who actually takes the decisions? Someone who isn't an expert on anything at all.
At an open source company I worked briefly, we used tRPC, and I was tasked with making the Enterprise API,

We went with a nextjs app, abstracted away our tRPC routers into a package and our monorepo, and used tRPC different routers both from our webapp and the API apps.

This works great!

You end up not repeating your logic all over the place, and make thin wrappers on your nextjs api endpoints or whatever to handle the differences between implementations

Securing Your PostgreSQL DB with Roles and Privileges
Why is it disgusting? Do you think Harvard should tell them NOT to apply for food stamps?

At the current minimum annual salary of $40k, a single student wouldn't be eligible for SNAP amyways, the income threshold for a household size of 1 is $29,160.

You'd need a household size of at least 3 to be eligible, with total household income under $49k. So you, a spouse and 1 child, or you and two children, etc.
That fact that they still happen isn't evidence that efforts to reduce it are ineffective. Most criminal orgs are running businesses, increasing the costs of doing businesses via enforcement or AML. On the margin, increased costs are passed to consumers which would reduce drug use. Cocaine is cheaper in Europe than in the US despite the US being a lot closer to the source, much of it due to the costs due to enforcement/AML. That's one of the points of the article, do you think drug consumption would be the same in Holland if the drugs weren't 15% more expensive?

The lens through which to look at is what level of enforcement/AML do we need to reduces societal harm cost effectively. Because you can't track every object that enters or every dollar that leaves.

So the question is more whether reducing the harms of drug consumption that amount is worth the impact on legitimate business. Then again the merits AML is that it hits most organized crime and costs a lot less than specific enforcement to stop trafficking and distribution. Now with fentanyl, you can't reasonable prevent trafficking at any cost because 5 tonnes can supply the entire USA, so you have to turn other the screws
> I don't know what other experience you have, but probably. At my previous job, I got a bunch of silicon production test engineers, that spend most of their day writing VBA, "productive" in React within a week.

It depends on your definition of “production”. I got a couple of developers who had spent a decade+ supporting a PowerBuilder app and writing stored procedures.

Their C# code was a horrible mess.

My former CTO (55 years old and his idea of research was coding POCs - smart guy), said he wouldn’t hire “old people” any more to do front end work because their front end designs weren’t as good as people who started out doing front end work and have been doing it for years.

All of his back end developers/architects were older.
You made an argument saying that even Google won’t use it for cross platform.

I have some context as to why it’s both a wrong and misleading statement.

When it came to the biggest money maker of the entire business this is what they picked. When it came to a new greenfield project for an entire OS… this is what they picked for the UI.

The statements you made about “the lessons they learned” is just some stuff you made up and isn’t actually supported by facts.
I feel so strongly about this article. Someone I think maybe in 2015 postulated an idea of dead internet theory where stuff like this would be common.

I confess I am just a poor person who works for food at goodwill sorting. I have seen many things which are stirring to heart but one of those really cut down to it. I had a huge cart with seminal and very recent books about super important college text many of them of scientific nature and others of an important nature like bad affairs concerning publishing in college of all things.

I saw the some of the greatest knowledge the MIT library had to offer being simply recycled. I think they wanted it all to simply disappear. It was troubling to someone that it was at MIT. Down here in the worlds retail therapy dump it troubled me. The act of thinking anything of any sort is in itself has become taboo.

I wanted to save even just one book to read but we aren't allowed to even buy trash there. I cried about this after reviewing all these things in this article. I am profoundly disturbed. I can't even categorize what I feel anymore. It is an unbelievable experience and it isn't good. And it's just the first year of AI. No would could ever be fully prepared for this even if you never logged in to the net in your life. Because everyone else did and being drip fed outrage. I'm just beside myself.

Total company size. The book argues, if I recall correctly, that over that size, there are too many moving parts within the organization to be focused on anything but preservation of the organization at large, rather than the product or service the organization offers. It's been a while since I read the book but it was quite a good read - highly recommended.

There isn't a best universal choice for all situations. If you're already using Postgres and all you want is to add vector search, pgvector might be good enough.

txtai (https://github.com/neuml/txtai) sets out to be an all-in-one embeddings database. This is more than just being a vector database with semantic search. It can embed text into vectors, run LLM workflows, has components for sparse/keyword indexing and graph based search. It also has a relational layer built-in for metadata filtering.

txtai currently supports SQLite/DuckDB for relational data but can be extended. For example, relational data could be stored in Postgres, sparse/dense vectors in Elasticsearch/Opensearch and graph data in Neo4j.

I believe modular solutions like this where internal components can be swapped in and out are the best option but given I'm the author of txtai, I'm a bit biased. This setup enables the scaling and reliability of existing solutions balanced with someone being able get started quickly with a POC to evaluate the use case.
Obliviousness to how your actions affect others do not make those actions disappear.
Exploited? Working for a living is called being an adult. The inverse of which is sticking your hand out and demanding that everyone carry you through adult life. People who agree to work for someone else are, in no way, being exploited. You have a choice to be a bum, as much as you have a choice where to work. And your options are greater when you're not a bum and have marketable skills that employers are willing pay for. Furthermore, if you're not a bum and you acquire skills, you can start your own business and do extremely well for yourself, and support dozens, if not hundreds or thousands of families if your business requires employees. I'm interested in discovering where you learned that successful business owners are "exploiting" people who willingly work for them.

I don’t think you really owe people anything to put the punchline first like this. Sure it helps ease some people’s anxiety, but there have been times where I’ve purposely taken an opposite approach, meandering through various vivid details, dropping some callbacks and winding up a story’s tension to the point where people were on the edge of their seat waiting to hear what finally happened. Maybe it’s sociopathic to prey on emotions this way.

Do you replace your working appliances and vehicles in your home in advance of their failure just in case? Or do you wait, and then spend the money for a repair? Perhaps you could have a backup system in a storage closet?

In the US, school taxes to a school are generally from the local neighbourhood and not the city at large, so advocating for spending to replace something that isn't broken might mean needing to take currently allocated funds from other programs if some contractor says they can only give you a new control system if you agree to let them replace all the boilers as well.
Let's be honest, it's only possible for people with rare skills and/or prestigious credentials (which are largely a function of your parents social class).

> I saw graphic sexual acts in schoolbooks and children books at the age of ten 50 years ago. In Europe, not US.

How would you feel if American values were imposed on your European community? And how do you think Americans would feel if your European values were imposed on their community?

These libraries and schools are funded at a local level, so it is locals who get a say in how that funding is used or the conditions under which it may be withdrawn. Incidentally, a public library is not necessarily publicly funded (a public library is a library that is open to the public, not necessarily funded by the public); they are free to seek private sources of funding and thereby free themselves from local democratic influence. You could organize Europeans and likeminded Americans to pool your money and fund these libraries against the wishes of the local community, but would that really be a good idea?
From experience I can say that these problems can occur just as well in bootstrapped companies when they reach a certain size. It's a problem with the number of employees regardless of how fast the company gets there IMO.
