> and the only way to start is to start big as small size farms are just not profitable.

Why do you say that? My small farm – just a traditional grain farm, nothing fancy – is quite profitable.

The big farm is a different business model. They are focused on wealth building, leveraging large amounts of debt to keep growing as much as possible, using most of the farm income to cover the debt requirements. In this model you need to be large to survive as the remaining profit margin after paying off the debt is tiny.

I have kept the debt to a minimum. That means growth happens at a snail's pace, but it also means that all the money that would have went to the bank ends up in my pocket instead.

I'll no doubt have a lot less wealth at retirement, taking the profitability now instead of later, but maybe that's okay? How much do you really need? I don't feel like I'm short of my retirement goals. I just might not be crazy rich in the end. Tradeoffs, as always.
I worked at a company that bailed on a JIRA Server to Cloud migration and went for enterprise instead because cloud's performance was so poor compared to the self hosted version.
Yes. If you are ruled by a government that does not have your best interests at heart, that is on you to change.

Government derives its power from the people it rules. There is no other source of that power.
Indeed you can. Cybersyn makes public datasets available via Snowflake Marketplace to make the data easier to discover with sample queries and data dictionaries. Accessing directly in your Snowflake instance can reduce engineering effort and lets you more easily join public datasets with proprietary and other third-party data on Snowflake.

Exactly, Google for sure should have updated it but why had the city or even a concerned neighbor not put a fence or even a log or something there to block access to the bridge? A sign and a temporary barrier would have saved lives here.

That's fine as long as your product stays competitive.

But as you lose the smaller and middle-range customers, you're also missing on the trends of the market, while getting shaken up by the big players you can't afford to say no to. If one of your whales needs feature Y, no matter how exotic you think it could be, you'll have to implement Y, bloating your product for the rest of your clients.

And while you're doing that, smaller competitors slowly creep up, eating up the bottom of you market, until you're stuck in a niche.

Yep seems to be down here as well, only on the web though. The mobile app seems to be loading fine (unless its using cached data or something).
I don't know the relevant laws for this case so I can't say anything about what a court might decide. I'm just stating my opinion.

Google Maps being wrong is not dangerous. It's an inconvenience. There can be absolutely no expectation that Google Maps is correct. Routes are generated automatically by complex algorithms working on imperfect data. I'm sure if anyone gave a shit they'd find this type of warning in some TOS or whatever.

People driving recklessly is dangerous. If you drive off a collapsed bridge you were driving recklessly. There is no way that happens if you drive responsibly. You are literally trying to drive onto a bridge that does not exist, you can't see any bridge there but you are trying to drive onto it anyway. There are two ways I can see this happening. Either you were looking away (generally phone) for multiple seconds without properly looking ahead, or you were going much much faster than you should given the conditions.

Google can, in my opinion, not be held responsible for reckless drivers who happen to be using their app.

From my perspective as an Apple Weather user, it went from basic and barebones to feature-packed almost overnight.

The cost also went down. DarkSky was $4. I wasn't ever willing to pay for a weather app.

I see hourly rain predictability for today, and for future days there are hourly precipitation charts in inches. I can't imagine that precipitation beyond the current day on an hourly basis has any chance of being accurate.

I think alternative weather apps like DarkSky were incentivized to provide extra information that justifies their existence regardless of accuracy/precision.

E.g., if I make my own weather app and my selling point is that I give you a forecast for every 10 minutes or that my forecast goes out 5 years, I don't have to have any shred of accuracy because it's just a forecast. I was able to sell you my app because you're impressed by the fact that I give you more granular predictions.
Its true that other media outlets are doing it as well. Maybe each one believes they are manipulating and exploiting their audience in the "right" way?

I wish we could get more Cronkite style anchors, who prided themselves on delivering information to the public in an unemotional and straightforward manner. Instead we get emotionally charged news anchors who are trying to incite the strongest reactions they can get.

TOML being typed makes it excellent compared to INI.

Nobody with anything resembling a CS degree on their wall should be defending nonsense like "castable strings", and the proliferation of string conversions into the application layer. Let alone in C or C++.

Postel's law is only half right.

You should be conservative in what you generate (don't probe every obscure corner spec of a representation, if you can avoid it), and reject all inputs that do not conform to the specification.

Programs shouldn't react in uexpected ways to bad inputs, like crash, or allow an attacker to take control. But they shouldn't try to reinterpret bad inputs as good, either. That's folly.

The only reason to follow Postel's law is economic gain at the expense of the technological ecosystem.

If your web browser accepts broken HTML and renders it, whereas the competing browser rejects it, that competing browser is better for the web, but looks buggy to the naive user base, which will prefer your web browser.

Postel's law was used as one of the weapons in the browser wars, whose legacy negatively affects the web even today.

There are a lot of people who use government assistance responsibly. There is also a lot of people who abuse the system. But SNAP and other benefits are 1.9% of our Federal budget, so I'm not going to sweat too much about waste/fraud/abuse.

We need to fix the inequalities that remove hardworking middle class values from our society. That's the real problem. Until that happens, I'm not going to demand anyone suffer or go hungry (even if there is fraud in the system).

I say this not because I'm trying to virtue signal. I say it because its just such a tiny amount of money and not worth fighting over.

Also, FWIW, I live in NYC. I see people use SNAP benefits to buy the stupidest things. Its frustrating but the alternative just seems a lot worse.

>what the actual harm is in airlines being "quasi-banks"

The word "air" in "airline" implies that the main purpose of the business is to move passengers and freight via aircraft. If the main purpose of the business is to generate credit card swipe fees it will probably not do a good job at moving passengers and freight through the air since that part of what it does doesn't generate most of the profits. And we've seen this already with the onerous fees and packed planes that are the standard model now ... because each airline has a captive population that flies it because that is where their points are.
Corporate journalists are the enemy of the people.
While this article is about credit cards and miles, the moment I realized they were banks was when I learned that most airline's fleets are leased. Since maintenance and planes are so expensive, lots of airlines lease a fleet with support contracts from places like GE Capital. From an MBA perspective, it makes sense, but it is such a weird concept to me that you don't own such a pivotal part of your business.

Why dont we just take all the children? Let the state raise them. Father was in jail, he should never see his children ever again. Mother was drunk, take the kids and lets sterlize the parents just in case.

I am making an extreme argument, there is obviously a line for CPS, but you have to remember that every system in the modern society is trying to be total. The police wants to stop crime, at all cost, if they could put is all in matrix like cells so we cant move they would. I will leave it to you to think what the ultimate goal of the education system is.

The only thing that stops systems from becoming total is our votes and also the fact that they are somewhat adversarial to each other e.g. if one becomes more total it consumes from the other system's power and so each systems fight for its life and multi dimensional predator/pray equilibrium is formed.

I think you misunderstand the intention of those query keys. They are only meant to be used for cache invalidation, and shouldn't control what content is served.

If you want to serve multiple versions of a static asset at the same time just use different file names.

Edit: That's why SPA frameworks usually use the hash inside the file name approach, so you can keep serving the previous script files for users that didn't reload the application yet.

What we usually do for infrequently updated enterprise applications: we terminate all active sessions during an update and users are forced to do a silent SSO re-login and re-load the SPA. This also allows us to deploy non-backwards compatible API changes without running into problems. This strategy may not fit everywhere though.
They don't buy in order to make the buyee's product better, but continuing to improve the product may be necessary to realise the value of the purchase particularly if regular updates and improvements are a big reason that customers stay with the brand.
I'm sympathetic to that, but not to ini! INI is just standardized enough that your ini parser may or may not give you "just a string." As another poster mentioned, it may well interpret the string "NO", quotes included, as the boolean false, before passing along to the rest of the application. It's this ambiguity of type that makes INI problematic. If it simply handed along strings, without fail, and left the application to parse whether "NO" should be a country or boolean or string, that wouldn't be a problem.

But inevitably, in order to DRY, somebody will make a consistent parser that is used in your application, whether that's in-house or a dependency. And at that point, it is very tempting to run everything through the parser, and the parser is going to make some unexpected decisions.

So, sure, use INI. But don't really. Use a env file that is parseable as INI or as shell environment variables. As soon as you start needing anything more complex, use something where you have at least a few basic guarantees that what you're getting is at least in the general vicinity of what you want.

Definitely true that HN comments should be taken with a grain of salt from a business / investment / employment perspective.

But it's more useful - though still not the full story at all of course - as a finger on the pulse of the people who actually implement software products, rather than their business models and their sales and marketing.

This is not intended to downplay the importance of any of those things! Those people are just not the majority of the audience here. (I honestly wish I knew where they hang out, but I'm not sure there is such a place - all the people I know in those roles just play their cards much closer to their chests than those of us who participate here.)
This is about uncontrolled consumption and waste. The physics are well understood.

Yeah; this article seems like a pretty nice overview of how Linux network namespaces work, but my frustrations usually aren't at that level.

Oh my god, thank you. I've been trying to figure out why my VM to VM bandwidth is capped at 30Gbit. I'm using multi-threaded iperf to benchmark, so it doesn't seem to be a data generation or consumption bottleneck. I'm going to have to do a bit more experimenting.

If both VMs are on the same host, is there any way to essentially achieve RDMA? VM1 says to VM2, "It's in memory at this location", and VM2 just reads directly from that memory location without a copy by the CPU?

I'm no expert, obviously, but I fail to see why VM to VM memory operations should be slower than RAM sans some latency increase due to setting up the operation.
This reminds me of an old F250 my dad had. He towed it from Colorado to Missouri and about halfway he noticed his gas mileage got worse. But, you know, coasting down mountains until you get to plains would also have a similar outcome, so he didn't think about it.

Once he got to Missouri he noticed the transfer case (I think) had somehow bounced out of neutral and was partially engaged, which chewed many teeth off the flywheel. To start it we had to get a pipe wrench and manually rotate the flywheel to a spot with enough teeth to catch the starter and turn over. That got harder and harder (as it kept chewing off more teeth) so eventually we had to push start it and pop the clutch. Thankfully it was a manual so it still worked!
