I agree that React's (and maybe other frameworks? I don't know them) conditional rendering syntax is very odd.

Like {my_bool && <Component />} instead of (if my_bool then <Component /> else null).

Or {my_bool || <Component />} (which is harder to express in most other languages because of Javascript considering truthy/falsy values instead of boolean true/false).

I am a fan of the UI-as-code approaches (as opposed to UI-as-markup or server-templating approaches) that React has though because of the other arguments you see in this thread, although the syntax could be better for React specifically. Elm is honestly pretty great in my opinion, and Flutter also has a nice language for describing UI as code. React just has less-than-optimal syntax.

I don't have a problem with map, though, except that I would like to extract the mapping function out of the "main view" into its own parameterised function that takes a list of whatever it needs.

That's because it is absurd. The same way any convenience is absurd.

Agnatic[0] cultures placing great significance on who’s in line to inherit the family’s wealth and who’s not, is my guess.

I've run into this same issue when developing a DSL for generating language bindings and doing data serialization. Not having compile-time type safety is such a pain.

So I'm extending the language to feature statically typed string templates as well. It currently targets (generates) C++, but I'll add other language targets in the future.

Mechanical sympathy in Go? When you think you've seen it all...

Go is not a high performance language which made a lot of decisions that don't lend its usage to be nice in scenarios where people want C and Rust. However, with the hype around it, the management continues to make decision, to everyone's detriment, to utilize Go in performance sensitive infrastructure code which one could write in Rust or C# and achieve much higher performance.

On one hand the cloud-based apps trend is the ultimate win for open source: now you can develop on a Linux machine even if 99% of your customers are using Windows.

Indeed. My point is that this sets a standard for what is considered 'effective' and if it falls short of that standard, those who say it's 'ineffective' by that unrealistic standard, that is still correct.

Something can be ineffective compared to something else. Such as a COVID vaccine being ineffective compared to some expectations or representations of it.

It's not that complicated. The closed-source software wouldn't be where they are today if it weren't from the open-source code they built upon.

Every protocols under the sun that is in use today has an open source implementation used by closed source software and OSes. Why? Because if they didn't, those protocols wouldn't be popular nor used. From file types handling, to images, to audio driver code, TCP/IP libraries, every cryptography implementation, every webpage you visit; from top to bottom is mostly made of open-source code.

Unless you're talking about rockets' real time OS, even the most closed platforms would be made of roughly 50% open-source code.

Maybe. I wouldn’t be surprised most people are much more sensitive to input latency than we think. But when there’s input latency, they have no idea that that’s the problem so instead they attribute the slushy feel of the game on something else. Or just don’t enjoy the game as much without knowing why. Game developers talk a lot about “game feel” and this is the kind of thing they’re talking about.

Download gets corrupted (randomly) at some point. Corrupted file gets stuffed into the cache. Now, since everyone is using the cache, everything/everyone is broken because the cache is ‘always good’, and the key didn’t change!

So then, someone figured it out and turned off caching - and it fixed it.

So now caching is always off.

I agree there are many options in this space. Two others to consider:

There are also many Kubernetes based options out there. For the specific use case you specified, you might even consider a plain old Makefile and incrond if you expect these all to run on a single host and be triggered by a new file showing up in a directory…

I like Airflow because you can give access to the web UI to operators and they can kick/run/stop tasks or graphs of tasks. Both Airflow and Luigi expect you to express your workflow as a DAG in Python code.

Ask HN: Tech jobs after physics postdoc?
I have a PhD in a physical science and am currently working as a postdoc at a US national lab. I love research but funding is limited in my area and permanent positions are increasingly unavailable. I'm looking to make the jump into some kind of tech job that uses my quantitative and computational skills. In 2022, I applied to dozens of data scientist positions in various industries but received only rejections. I accepted the postdoc after that. My postdoc does not end soon but I want to be ready to get a more stable job once it ends.

What kind of tech jobs would hire somebody like me? I am a capable programmer in C, C++, Java, Python, and yes Fortran, and have a lot of experience writing programs for large supercomputers (parallel computing). I have also worked extensively in optimization and model development, which is basically machine learning but using techniques other than neural nets. I have tried to emphasize this in previous resumes but kinda feel like I am not using the right terms to express the work I did. I also worked in industry for several years before pursuing a PhD but I would prefer to not work in my previous industry.

In the early days of the Node.js ecosystem, there was a trend which was all about 'tiny modules'; many developers published tiny 10-line or so modules and people in the community were promoting these tiny modules really hard. It went a bit out of control and a lot of higher level modules were including many of those tiny modules, then those modules were themselves included into other, even higher level modules, etc... The number of modules used by some of these higher level modules/tools/frameworks grew exponentially and we ended up with a lot of unnecessary dependencies.

Each tiny module did just a bit more than it should have done or included just one more dependency than was necessary, sometimes the scope of the module would grow over time and all this added up. Also, different sub-modules used different sub-sub-modules for the same functionality so this caused a lot of duplication in the higher level modules.

For my own open source project, I've always been very careful about which dependencies I use. I favor module authors who try to keep their number of dependencies to a minimum. A lot of times, it comes down to figuring out the correct scope of the module... Most low level libraries should not need to do their own logging; therefore, they should not need to include sub-modules to colorize the bash output; instead, they should just emit events and let higher level modules handle the logging. Anyway there are many cases like that where modules give themselves too much scope.

> Paying for a flight or a hotel room with points may feel like a free bonus, but because credit-card-swipe fees increase prices across the economy—Visa or Mastercard takes a cut of every sale—redeeming points is more like getting a little kickback.

And the ones that give a cash kickback (1.5% or occasionally more with a few specific cards) are even easier and more straightforward about this.

Suppose someone wanted to reverse this trend and just make everything cheaper rather than having interchange fees of which the cardholder gets a fraction back? What incentive structure would move towards a model with goods whose prices don't need to buffer the 3+% haircut of credit card fees?
