I'd met an old friend who runs a high street business, walking into their shop and chatting briefly before a random walked in off the street and said random stuff, then walked out.

My friend shrugged, turned to me, and said, "Welcome to retail".

I've related that to a few people over the years. It's a useful lesson to keep in mind. Much better to recognise this for what it is than attempt to fix, fight, or rationalise it.
Totally fair, this was my first post I have been refining for over the course of a few months. Each one I will iterate on and have a continuous development cycle. I seems like it was providing value to a couple of people before getting flagged within 30 ish minutes. Really bummed about that.
> gear size, etc. are interesting, but I don't see how they're strictly necessary. Can you explain?

Simple: The chain won't grip the gear.

Gears must be designed such that the chain never intersects the gear (two things can't be in the same place at the same time). That precludes 'hooks' on the teeth of the gear, and means that the face of the gear tooth must be perpendicular to the chain link. However, that means that at any other angle, the angle of the tooth is providing a small component in a direction that pushes the chain off the tooth.

When your chain is contacting many teeth, this force gets smaller by 1-cos(angle between teeth) per tooth - so after about 6 teeth or so, the force is so tiny as to be irrelevant. However, in OP's design there is minimal tension and only 1 tooth touching at a time, so the chain will jump off the teeth.

There is a huge and very old field of chain and sprocket design, the details of which I am not very familiar, but I do know the basic rules of "some non-zero tension", "bigger subtended angle=better" and "engage as many teeth as possible".

(other interesting chain facts: the invention of the bicycle was enabled by the invention of sufficiently good chains. chains are better lubricated by grease not oil. chain wear gets exponentially worse, not linearly. centripetal force limits fast moving chains. )
When a Nue component is compiled it creates a native ES6 class directly from the contents of the inner script tag. The ES6 code is not traversed at all, let alone altered. That is: count = 0 is a native ES6 class instance variable.
Lookup speed. Direct mappings are faster. If something needs an external identifier that can be looked up for URL/API queries and such things…

Internal sorts and index on write with ULID/UUIDv7 which reveal potentially sensitive timestamp information, and so when that’s not appropriate a separate column can be used for…

External opaque identifiers which are UUIDv4, and if indexing speeds become an issue, can be switched to deferred indexing…

It’s a good balance and everything I’ve ever used supports this (I only needed a pretty strong representation wrapper for ULIDs since PG doesn’t validate UUID bit field structures so i can just miss-use UUID columns)

It looks like Snowflake has the same information exposure issues that using UUIDv7 or ULID for a publicly visible identifier.
I'm scratching my head as to why I don't hear about more people running Raspberry Pis as APs off the built-in WiFi for smaller (in terms of number of clients) networks.

I chucked up hostapd on Debian at one point and was surprised to see how good coverage it got. Outperformed devices in higher price-range without even attaching an antenna.
I still have my fake lady account and this is true. The thirst is real.

> Maybe it's not too bad for very simple diagrams but unmanageable for anything complex.

Yeah, the problem with these sort of layout algorithms is that they don't have a sense of proportionality.

I wonder if LLM can do this better. I've tried with 5 relations from this example one and ChatGPT comes up with this:

Place "Jolly Sailor" at point (1, 1).
Place "Pirate" at point (2, 1).
Place "rum" at point (3, 2).
Place "mischief" at point (2, 0).
Place "Marauder" at point (3, 0).

It looks okay, but I haven't checked with anything more complicated.
Yes, but programmers are a special case. We all know that our industry is characterized by a pervasive desire to prove we know more than others. So we should rein it in more than elsewhere.

Concentrating on NPEs and stuff like sum times is misunderstanding the problems with software quality to the point of misunderstanding the magnitude of impact of different flaws.

Working tightly with QA for over ten years by now, I can assure you that NPEs are exceptionally rare in bug reports filed by QA. No matter if that's a common problem in the language the application is written in (eg. Java or C++) or virtually nonexistent (eg. Kotlin or Haskell).

Here are some examples of more common bugs:

* Misunderstanding of the desired functionality (eg. giving admin permissions to regular users).

* Not being able to predict all valid input forms (eg. user names with accented characters).

* Forgetting to handle errors coming from multiple levels below the immediate level that's being worked with (eg. dealing with SSL-related problems in HTTP client / server communication).

* Simply forgetting to implement some uncommon bit of functionality (usually related to cleanups, deletion etc.)

----

Currently in-use programming languages have roughly the same ability to deal with these, as I call them, "macro-problems" of programs. All of them are equally ill-equipped and unprepared for them. Tightening the type system or chasing after nulls is working at a resolution that's too fine. At this resolution programmers usually still have a good chance of figuring out the problems without the aid of types or similar automation.
There's both. There's the "I have persistent trouble coping with what we generally accept as 'reality' in a healthy, functional fashion" and "I've just had a moment of completely stupid/delusional/reactionary thinking". (The previous is completely my own wording and not intended to be precise.)

I 100% agree with the overall idea that we aren't able to deal well with the consequences of what we've created with social media.
My problem is that not all cheap socks wear out quickly and not all expensive socks stay nice. It's a bit of luck and who actually counts?

But that's basically the real problem. I want to believe decades ago there was more of a relation between higher cost (but not outright a luxury brand) and quality. Now that is completely random and even if you look for reviews hardly anyone does any "5 years later" tests (except for some maybe paid amazon reviews...)

Ask HN: How training of LLM dedicated to code is different from LLM of “text”
Does it go beyond exposing to the LLM only "code"?, or there are extra steps in the training? (like giving the compiler/interpreter rules)?
Since programming are more structured , I think that using grammar that are dedicated to those language might be useful.

Honest question. How do young-earth creationists react to these news?

The comments on performance are utterly incorrect, modulo discussions on hotspots, but you shouldn’t be sharding randomly anyway. If you get to the point where you _need_ to shard for anything other than geolocality, doing so randomly will rapidly reveal your hotspots.

> One reason for using sequential keys is to avoid id fragmentation, which can require a large amount of disk space for databases with billions of records.

Disk is cheap but not free at higher tiers. But more importantly, record fragmentation means more pages (unless you take the time to do a full table lock and rewrite it, and who’s doing that?) which means more index bloat. I assure you, that adds up once you’re into the billions of records level.

> the ids will be generated in a sequential order, causing the tree to become unbalanced, which will lead to frequent rebalancing.

Given the width of B+trees used in DBs, I doubt they generally need to go more than one or at most two levels up. I’ll take the ability to rapidly follow the leaf nodes and have a good shot at sequential reads in cache from prefetch, thanks.

Again you don’t know your history. Microsoft paid Apple a settlement fee as part of the overarching deal they made with Apple back in 1997.
So long as spam legislation applies to these notifications¹, you don’t need to: in theory you just report it to the relevant enforcement body, and they get fined heavily until they do something about it (which, under most sets of spam legislation, will start by requiring that these sorts of messages be opt-in only).

—⁂—

¹ I vaguely recall hearing that EU spam legislation would apply to notifications, but I may be wrong or misremembering. For my home jurisdiction of Australia, the Spam Act 2003 may or may not cover them; it depends on whether these things count as “electronic messages”, a term which is defined in the Act as “a message sent:
(a) using:
(i) an internet carriage service; or
(ii) any other listed carriage service; and
(b) to an electronic address in connection with:
(i) an email account; or
(ii) an instant messaging account; or
(iii) a telephone account; or
(iv) a similar account.”
As a technologist, I would expect push notifications—that is, notifications sent by the app provider’s server via Apple/whoever servers to your device—to meet this classification; but that it would be less clear-cut with notifications generated directly by the app, as there’s not so obviously an electronic address involved.

It’s strictly illegal for them to directly criticize the war, with potentially severe penalties.
Crazy that it has only been cited about 2000 times over 20 years. Surprising given its impact.

This is an example where even citations fail to recognise significant papers.

The Doudna Charpentier paper, by contrast, has been cited 17k times and publishes only 12 years ago.

As a fun exercise, the journal immunity should provide the reviewer comments to see how things have changed in light of 20 years.
The unique thing about social media is the symmetry of the experience. The broadcaster sits behind a desk. He may get written complaints fed back to him. He does not have to go home and then see a thousand someone elses behind a desk on TV criticizing him.

I lived aboard a boat for a week this spring with no internet access. We spent most of our waking time doing Galapagos things, but many of the multi-hour transits between islands there wasn't much to do.

I had downloaded a bunch of older Advent of Code exercises and spent some time on the transits solving them in a language that was relatively new to me (Clojure).

That might be better suited to a casual/low-stakes "15-20 total hours" rather than 100 hours where you want to be sure you can be productive, but all I did was just made sure I could do a couple of hours worth of work on my laptop at home with the wifi disconnected.
I’ve heard this argument many times, but I’ve never seen anyone actually post a reference to it happening (as in, a company finding and using this information; not the German tank problem).

To me, it reeks of solving imaginary problems while causing new ones.
There are more people than you think that can slap together some YAML and a Helm chart and deploy something reasonably resilient inside a Kubernetes cluster.

Intel CPUs were significantly more expensive than a Z80.
Also, many programs made for the IBM PC accessed the hardware directly, and the C128 wasn't hardware-compatible at all.

A few other companies did make early IBM-PC clones which weren't 100% hardware compatible, and that didn't go well for them.
It's great for performance, up until you reach the point where a single device becomes a bottleneck, at which point it's terrible for performance.

As a sibling comment says, you ideally want to shard on some other key to get "just enough" distribution that all your machines/disks have work to do, but you are still only hitting a limited number of hot sectors on each disk that can be effectively cached. But that requires active monitoring and rebalancing of your data as it grows. Totally random keys are a safe default that will scale with any kind of data distribution and access patterns.
Keeping personal matters offline might be a reasonable ideal but a highly unreasonable and unfair practice. Many people do conduct significant social actions online.

There are people who have no local access to a similar or understanding peer group. We often hear of this now in terms of sexual identity or preferences, but it could be anything from interests to skills or aptitudes to medical or psychological conditions. People go online to find community, especially community that's not represented locally.

(This, like The Force, has both a light and dark side, of course.)

There are also people who are distant from friends, family, or other community, and for whom online group interactions are among the few available options.

We read and hear now of the closely guarded and coded language that was used to refer to situations and circumstances in Victorian times. Slangs and argots arose to be able to communicate within an anti-society whilst excluding normies. People today may use similar methods (though tools for tracking slang, such as Urban Dictionary, tend to catch up quickly).

Technical means may help, as can anonymous or pseudonymous identities, though both these have their own serious limitations as I've described in other comments on this thread.
I was using SF because it's known to have had a much higher house price inflation than other places, in order to try to be charitable to your case. If you look at the overall US housing market then you need to go back a lot further than a decade to see 100% inflation.

How can you evaluate the quality of a product that was not built yet?
Interestingly this assumes that the goal is learning how to manually write code, rather than learning how to get a LLM to generate code for you, or learning how to build a product.

If you believe the future of coding sits in AI/LLMs/ML, this next generation of learners might just be using the 'beta' tools-of-tomorrow, rather than just being people that need to learn to manually code.

(My personal view is that manual coding will be changed almost unrecognisably within 5-10 years, but lets see! So much of learning to program is about learning syntax, and I can see a world of AI-powered-future-programming-languages where syntax is less important than clarity)
