Thank you for speaking what’s on my mind.

It’s shameful that this self-deprecating idea seems to have made it to the mainstream, and even worse that young men are believing it.
If deploying on different racks is that big of problem for your latency then you’re severely limited in how far you can scale your application just by physical rack space. IME this just isn’t true.
Just to be clear for any future readers, they don't mean forwarding the email as in the forward button (which quotes or attaches it), they mean setting up mail forwarding on the entire inbox
What you have to remember is there are no guarantees in the world. No one wants to tell 75 people their job offers were rescinded. The problem is Flexport thinks this is better than the alternatives. Sometimes, you do not have good options. You just have bad and worse.

I think the lesson we can all learn from this is SAVE MONEY, and assume bad things will happen.

Business model:

0. Buy 5000 cheap space heaters at 1.5kW each.

1. Rent some cheap giant warehouse near Austin-Bergstrom airport.

2. Wait until ERCOT issues a power alert.

3. Crank them.

4. Refuse their first offer.

5. Take their second.

6. Profit!

Like these Ponzi schemers wasting resources for a volatile fiction, it's profitability by gamification of brinksmanship.

I had to deal with the same problem a few years ago, and used the exact same solution.
In either case they'll still be spending tens of thousands on a vehicle (and dealing with the depreciation), but I'd imagine the fuel saving calculations pay off a lot quicker for a taxi than they would for most people.

As an aside, locally the Model 3 starts at around $35k USD after rebates. <2 year old used models are around the $23k USD mark. We have a /lot/ of Teslas running around as Ubers now.
And even if in different data centers (say different AZs), query latency is probably 1ms; in practice that’s quite low. How many queries are you doing in a request?
Does delegate support delegating everything (except what you're specifically implementing for your own struct) yet? That's the way to do it.

It was looked at and deemed an inferior design. Especially so given that existing async/await paradigm in .NET works really well with existing language features that would make adoption of green-threads-like approach problematic.
Because I live in a third world country which is also very sunny, dry and hot like Arizona in the US.

And while solar has become cheap enough that our utilities are starting implementing it, the storage is still too expensive if you want GWh scale storage. It can literally cost billions, and considering we may need to replace it in like 5-10 years, it is not a viable solution for us. We just can’t afford it.
Gatekeeping gives power to the gatekeepers. It's literally one of the easiest social phenomena to understand.
> It’s frankly obvious that the 1EB tape would have faster write speeds than that, and pretending otherwise doesn’t make a compelling discussion.

OK, so I should assume the max of "GB/s speeds"? 999GB/sec would still take 11-12 days!

---

Even if we do limit to 1GB/sec, that's a lot of data to be logging, even if it's raw video. It would be neat to have that as a sort of infinite throwaway chache, though, but I can't imagine really using more than a petabyte or two.
You want to be on a team that contains a C++ expert or two, and they should conscientiously and continuously evolve your code base to incorporate more static time correctness checks and to be more in line with where the standard library is heading.
So it has, thanks for pointing that out. I goofed as I actually actually meant to write Vitest, which remains broken in v1.0.
I still don't get this argument. The amount of depreciation that comes from miles is quite small. Suppose you've driven your Prius for Uber for a few years. The bluebook on a 2010 Prius with 156,000 miles (the expected number for a 13 year old car) is ~$4000.

If driving for Uber instead caused you to have 500,000 miles on it the bluebook value would be ~$2500, so the extra miles reduced the car's value by ~$1500. By contrast, at 50 MPG and $3/gallon the extra 344,000 miles would have cost you >$20,000 in gas.

When you already have the car as a sunk cost because you need one for yourself, the depreciation is almost completely irrelevant unless you're doing something ridiculous like selling the car when it still has significant market value left.
your art is good when it triggers emotions in those who consume it.

your art is masterwork if you can design your emotions for capture.
Competition working as intended
There are two natural geologies I know of:

Oil fields often have dissolved CO2 and methane contaminants. Those gasses are captured and pressurized to force more oil out. Those empty caverns are the largest opportunity for capture.

At ocean depth, CO2 is trapped under hydrate caps. This is best-known around geothermal “smokers”, but the ocean floor is largely unknown. So, there is significant risk allowing the hydrate caps to melt.
This is a large part of what your federal elected officials are there for. It's worth reaching out early to see if they have any contacts they can share, even without an escalation.
You can use unsafe if you really want to "turn the borrow-checker off", no?
What experts?

Majority of speed limits are in residential areas set up by the neighbour who complains, as the poster above just proudly did [1]. So the speed starts at 50kph set up by experts when the suburb is created, and 20 years later a random subset of streets is down to 20kph, because somebody somewhere lived there and was bored enough with their life to pester the city hall.

And while that may sound cynical and hostile, it is literally what happened in my last 2 neighbourhoods. There was no expertise, no statistics, no evaluation. Just complaints and no political will to ever refuse or re-examine.

On hwys in my area, experts and studies have repeatedly over years suggested increases are feasible. But it keeps getting delayed. Here's the reality - those who want to go faster will silently go faster. Those who want to go slower will very loudly insist that everybody goes slower. And bureaucratd will be bureaucrats and take the low risk route.

> could be async IO and require being called in the context of an async runtime

The compiler already has knowledge that a function is being called as async - what prevents it from ensuring that a runtime is present when it does?

> blocking synchronously on an async task in an async runtime can result in deadlocks from task waiting on runtime IO polling but the waiting preventing the runtime from being polled

What prevents the runtime from preempting a task?
Have you actually contacted a state government and seen a response that aligned with what you consider to be moral? I believe this may be a fairy tale that politicians tell their children, corporations tell their politicians, and the rest of us tell ourselves to feel like we matter.
My understanding of basic physics tells me it's good for my health to match the flow of traffic, regardless of the signage. I haven't found that government makes similar decisions surrounding my health, or yours.

rm doesn't actually modify the file. It does an unlink which removes the link from the filename to the file.

Essentially, a file can have 0 or more names linked to it. As long as a file has at least one name or at least one process with it open, it will persevere.

By contrast, shred actually writes to the underlying file.
- No standardized audit trail
- No way to know who's really on the other side

I think these 2 are the biggest ones. You put in someone's phone number / email, and you get maybe an associated name as reassurance. How do I know it's actually associated with an account the person I'm trying to pay has access to?
The upside is extreme low cost. Their marketing team may be spinning the downside a bit but what they really did was find an important niche where the downside doesn't matter.

Keep right except to pass and you won't have a problem.
Promissory estoppel actually applies even when the parties have not signed a contract — it’s based on the ‘promise’ that was made by one party, even in the absence of a binding contract. It does require, as you say, ‘detrimental reliance’ to be triggered. In this case, that should be fairly easy to demonstrate, since anyone who left their job would have done so in reliance on the promise of employment.

I've been using emacs for years, and I use org to write latex documents because writing actual latex is awful, but I don't really see what drives such org mode fanaticism.

You're at a bbq and someone invites you to a ski trip in 5 months, you need to check your schedule so you whip out your laptop to check the org calendar?

I just don't get how people can function putting "everything" into org.
> The thing is, these dependencies do exist no matter what language you use

Sure, but in a lot of cases, these invariants can be trivially explained, or intuitive enough that it wouldn't even need explanation. While in Rust, you can easily spend a full day just explaining it to the compiler.

I remember spending litteral _days_ tweaking intricate lifetimes and scopes just to promise Rust that some variables won't be used _after_ a thread finishes.

Some things I even never managed to be able to express in Rust, even if trivial in C, so I just rely on having a C core library for the hot path, and use it from Rust.

Overall, performance sensitive lifetime and memory management in Rust (especially in multithreaded contexts) often comes down to:

1) Do it in _sane_ Rust, and copy everything all over the place, use fancy smart pointers, etc.

2) Do it in a performant manner, without useless copies, without over the top memory management, but prepare a week of frustrating development and a PhD in Rust idiosyncrasies.

Any constant stream of data, from seismographs and radio telescopes to surveillance cameras.
The "semi-complex" code is legacy code, aka revenue code. Started with plain JS in CJS on Node 12 and evolved to strict TS/ESM on Node 20. A lot of cruft built up from that multi-year evolution.

These days, if you're authoring from scratch, just write idiomatic TS in ESM, and you'll be fine. Even if targeting only Node, prefer to use Web standards (e.g., fetch, Request/Response, WebCrypto, Web Streams, URL, AbortController) as Node is migrating in that direction, and standard-compliant code will give you optionality in runtimes (Bun/Node/Workers).

Given this fact, one of the most amazing things to me is when a song can be translated relatively faithfully and while preserving the rhyme structure. It just blows my mind to listen to a song in another language with English subtitles and have it line up close enough to the English and still rhyming in their seperate tongue.
I don’t think rescinded offers are common enough to bother.
I'm not familiar with noise as a speed consideration by my State DOT. Do you have a reference to the noise consideration for speed limits in the law/rule for your locale?
Ask HN: Why do people say Google search is dying?
I mean, I don't remember the last time it didn't direct me to the right resources. I totally agree that it's bloated and not as user friendly as it used to be, but the content of the search results is okay. What do people search on Google that leads to poor search results?

* I agree that Medium, TowardsDataScience, and pretty much any paywalled website should be blocked by default, unless the article is NOT paywalled. I hear that Kagi allows you to block such websites, which is nice.
This makes me wonder if all the really cool new EVs that are coming out are going to be riddled with issues in about 4 or so years. Most of these seem to have come out in the past two years and I thought Tesla had a huge head start on them. They appear to have closed the gap. Time will tell.
12 days would be adequate. This is archival storage, not high performance storage.

However, I will emphasize again that CeraTape is further in the future, so it makes sense that Cerabyte would not be ready to discuss performance figures for that. What you’re continuously quoting is certainly referring to CeraMemory, the stuff they’re planning to release sooner in smaller capacities.

10PB at 10GB/s would be about 12 days. Even if it were 5GB/s, it would still be less than a month. A major trade off, to be sure, but I can definitely imagine applications where that would be acceptable if the cost were low and the durability were high.

The real question is whether they can deliver what they’re promising at a reasonable price.

If only workers could organize or something…
I see a lot of this in consulting. A client will say they need skills A, B, and C. We know that X, Y and Z are skills that we see paying dividends in consultants over the long term. But we hire the A, B, C developer because that's specifically what the immediate project demands for rather than what is a good fit for our consulting practice over time. Trying to place those folks after their initial engagement is a lot of work and leads to higher turnover as a result.
Huge risks in shunting surplus energy into the forces. 20% youth unemployment drives hard but once bullets start flying at the Taiwan straights or the spratleys you have to distinguish between the Potemkin village solders and the ones who actually can do the job. Most of the risk is seaborne, and the navy can't handle that many more recruits, so you have army boys and girls and nothing to do with them: Vietnam is not a good idea, it's a corgi with sharp teeth. Dont pet the dog if you want to keep all your fingers. India well sure you CAN stop fighting with rakes and shovels but it's a long way west and for what? To sell internet to Bhutan?

And, bodybags are a bad look for the government. Serious numbers of Chinese now have family permanently overseas in Australia, New Zealand, the US and Canada and they don't only read qq.com and taobao and wechat. So, the whole "we own the story" dynamic here is weak too: people may not talk about tienanmen but they are talking about how Xi is missing his half of the social contract.

He governs at the will of the people. If cheap housing, jobs, food and android phones dry up, the will of the people dries up too. There are plenty of populists a few decades younger than Xi who can rally popular support and people discount how strong the provinces are: if they block the roads and food trucks into Beijing stop coming, the PLA has to fight its own grandma and cousins. Nobody likes this. Driving tanks over anonymous students in the square is one thing, but provincial troops beating up aunty and uncle another. Central government usually caves in to provincial backlash.

In any case it only buys you so much time: the people come out of their time in the PLA and then what?

Repurposing the forces for domestic construction projects might pay off, mass rural electrification, conversion out from coal, better roads and more rail. So WPA but on steroids.

Building out airstrips along the nine dash line won't soak up enough labour.
because the projects have different goals and are coded in different languages.
Power at what cost though
To be fair, late stage corporations almost all look alike: unwieldiness, complexity, inflexibility, bureaucracy, sluggish inertia, inefficiencies, and disconnection from users. Add incentives for short-term gains, and gamification will ensue that doesn't necessarily promote long-term, enduring dominance and may well permit foot machine-guns.

Despite a large market share, often with similar orgs, these attributes make them easy prey for startups without these dysfunctions.

One holistic solution is to do as Sir Richard Branson: continually striving to have it both ways: operate with the nimbleness of a startup while seeking economies of scale and automation of a megacorp. Largely, the cultural attitude is the source problem and the source of solution.
But what damages? Unless the pronise was of a job which itself wasn't at will employment, they could have terminated you immediately when you took it up, so even if promissory estoppel applies (which requires not only the promise, but reasonable and detrimental reliance on it) there's unlikely to be much recovery.

Not saying its not worth exploring, but I wouldn't expect much out of it.
I do like that /bin/true can actually fail and return false, which technically makes a "Not /bin/false" invocation more resilient: https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/blob/master/src/true.... (and yes, I know it's the most unlikely thing, I just found it funny)

Ahh, for some reason I completely missed that shred was involved.
I, too, throw my baby out with my bathwater.
Maybe Dave intended to hire and pay these people?
No, because that doesn't give you automatic memory management, which is the point. When I'm prototyping, there's zero reason for me to care about lifetimes - I just want to allocate an object and let the runtime handle it. When you mark everything in your codebase unsafe (a laborious and unnecessary process that then has to be laboriously undone), you still have to ask the Rust runtime for dynamic memory manually, and then track the lifetimes in your head.
It doesn't really matter, there doesn't exist a problem space where both Rust and Python are reasonable choices.

Case in point, I once wrote a program to take a 360 degree image and rotate it so that the horizon followed the horizontal line along the middle, and it faced north. I wrote it in python first and running it on a 2k image took on the order of 5 minutes. I rewrote it in rust and it took on the order of 200ms.

Could I iterate in Python faster? Yes, but the end result was useless.
mine is just normal idiomatic Go code. thats not true of the C code.
You can do it without HKTs with an effects system, which you can think of as another kind of generics that causes the function to be sliced in different ways depending on how it's called. There is movement in Rust to try to do this, but I wish it was done before async was implemented considering async could be implemented within it...

Sure you can, opting out of tipping changes the equilibrium. Tipping restaurants seems deeply ingrained in American culture, but chipping at the edges is how you get real change.

Tipping isn’t a neutral activity, it actively supports exploitive work environments. I actively boycott such businesses, but even just scaling down tips is a positive change.
