You probably did this:

for name in ("John"):
# "J"
# "o"
# "h"
# "n"

for name in ("John", "Sam"):
# "John"
# "Sam"

The correct form for the first one is this:

for name in ("John",):
# "John"

> Schools have more than enough money, they're just run by morons...

I agree with you on that? I never advocated for raising taxes, I said "Schools themselves are chronically mismanaged" and that "teachers are underpaid" and they poorly fund their services.

> while simultaneously saying anyone questioning how they're run is obviously a "right wing extremist"

No, I'm saying the people who are running for school boards so they can openly hate all minorities and setup christian-nationalist views are "right wing extremists" -- https://thehill.com/opinion/education/4086179-six-reasons-wh...

These people are not "questioning how they are run" in good faith. They're trying to make schools hell for children to experience (and, frankly, their efforts are working)

Indeed this. There are benefits. Less code, faster to write.
but it takes two. if your partner does not reciprocate then sometimes there is nothing you can do to fix the relationship.

but that should not prevent anyone from trying to find a partner. it just means that i would look for a partner who understands this, and is willing to look out for your needs just as much as you look out for theirs.
Good tests only render SST superfluous insofar as the person writing the tests is capable of never making a mistake. The thing about good static type systems is they don't typically make mistakes in the domain they work in. The fact that you don't have to muddy your test with a bunch of type checking logic and instead focus on the thing actually being tested is just the cherry on top.
I actually like this approach. I believe in mentoring. I believe in building bridges. But if we're on opposite sides of the Grand Canyon, it's not worth my time.
What I've commonly seen is that the manufacturer offers a store-wide 20% or 30% off coupon, as a temporary promo and/or for email signup.

So the item price matches Amazon's, but you pay less in the end, if you're even remotely paying attention.

At least for the $200-300 items I've seen (like dehumidifiers, fancy computer accessories).
I disagree. If running or volunteering at a soup kitchen were viewed by the would-be criminal as options for fulfilling their needs, they wouldn't be. There is something - generally psychological or social - pushing them to self-destructive solutions rather than pro-social ones.

> they’ll need to turn off their phones

Apparently if you turn off your phone, the alert will play when you turn it back on. So if everyone in a hospital wing turned off their phone, the alert would “happen” multiple times as people turned their phones on later.
I think this is OK as long as you keep your mind open to situations that you have not considered.

Imagine someone is working in a relatively niche new programming language ecosystem which is dynamically typed, allowing the language to have some richness that modern type systems don't support. I don't have an example because I don't know of any such language in 2023... BUT back in the 70s and 80s this would have been Lisp. Lisp couldn't have been strictly typed back then because, AFAICT, type systems hadn't advanced enough to express the sort of metaprogramming that made Lisp unique and awesome. This was at a time when most popular languages were strictly typed.

I would hope that you would keep your mind open to whatever that maps to in the 2020s.

Now, if someone says "I like JS over TS because types are annoying and slow me down", then yeah, I don't have much patience for that either.
People said the same about Bell.
All of that could be true yet "continuously draining education in order to have lower property taxes" is nonetheless completely false. If what you say is true then we should demand that schools use their money better, not that we give them more money that they can sock into their as you call it "self-perpetuating growth industry".

for example france: https://www.patrick-breyer.de/en/data-retention-france-illeg...

> In a decree made public today, French Prime Minister Élisabeth Borne has extended the temporary retention of communications data of all citizens in France for another year. The blanket retention obligation concerns identity data (surname, first name, date and place of birth, postal address(es), e-mail address(es), telephone number(s)) as well as payment information, connection data (IP addresses, port numbers, identification numbers of users and their devices, date, time and duration of each communication, data on supplementary services and their providers)

they basically collect everything.
The turned-around argument has a problem: testing should reveal type bugs, but static typing (of the kind typically discussed for mainstream languages) can't reveal non-type bugs.

In a situation where extreme levels of testing occurs, the extra assurance from strong typing is minimal. In a situation where strong typing is enforced, extra testing is still very useful.
100%, that was exactly what it brought to mind for me as well: like I had reached into the lawn mower bag and sprinkled in some essence of grass clippings. No thanks.

If someone wants to call olive oil without grass-clippings-taste "rancid," it's a free country, but that term comes with overbearing negative connotations so I'd personally prefer "aged" or something.

Typescript can be very complex - it can also be incredibly simple - it's up to you how far you want to take it.

Sure it can be an adventure to express something fully in it - but this is true for any type system I've seen.

And I haven't seen another type system that's integrated into a dynamic ecosystem as well (IMO python is 5 years behind in terms of type checking experience) and that lets you chose the level of type sophistication that makes sense.

Static typing, code analysis, automated testing, etc. are all great tools that become counterproductive past a certain point. Where that point is highly depends on what you're doing and typescript is one of the most flexible type systems at letting you make that choice. I'd say a lot of people are terrible at recognizing when they went too far with it for no practical gain.

My only problem with it is that they can't fix the shit JS semantics.

I'm sorry, I should have been clearer -- I meant that I wish this would be a locally self-hostable observability solution for OpenAI-compatible APIs in general, not something that can only be deployed to Azure and is tied specifically to Azure's OpenAI service.

For example, Helicone[0] and llm.report[1] work as generic proxies for the OpenAI API and you can deploy them anywhere.

I don't think the opinion is even controversial at this point. Even the hardcore JS developers I know have come around to using TypeScript.

If you can't at least admit to the benefits of static types in 2023 then you probably don't have experience building or maintaining large software systems or working with a team of 15+ people, many of whom you've only met over Slack.

My understanding is this test will be a Presidental Alert, which cannot be disabled. I guess we'll all find out soon enough.
Why do we think there needs to be such a system? I don't. I'd rather delete the capability. The likelihood of bad uses overwhelms the slender possible benefits.

Incidentally, in the UK the test messages could be opted out of, and a lot of people did. Presumably this doesn't stop the government from cranking the level up to unignorable if they wanted to, unless the big phone OS cos sensibly didn't give them that access level.

Sometimes things take a few days longer, but no real problems. Target and HomeDepot also both allow "third party sellers" so there's the same clutter issue, though it's not nearly as bad as Amazon.
Tests is testing your program against samples, where strong typing make your program incorrect on a whole spectrum of samples.
Bosco Verticale consists of two residential buildings.
Well, every programming language must necessarily have types to some degree, but they aren't necessarily static or strong type systems. Most Lisps do not have a static type system and even fewer have a "strong" type system.
The usage of “rancid” in everyday conversation is exclusively referring to something that “went bad” in my experience.

The top definitions of the word agree, e.g.:

> having an unpleasant smell or taste usually from chemical change or decomposition

> having a rank, unpleasant, stale smell or taste, as through decomposition, especially of fats or oils

Google has a history of killing its own products and services. It is not wise to build on top of depending on their tools. It's likely that you'll get rugged next quarter.
The thing I'm worried about is people in crowded, quiet areas like hospitals who have conditions that trigger on sudden noises or surprises. Many people in the hospital aren't up to speed on the news. Because, you know, they're half-awake and feeling terrible. So when the nurses' and patient's phones all start blaring while they're treating a patient who then has some sort of cardiac or nervous system response to the scary-sounding alarm...

I dunno. Maybe there's no precedent for my worry. But it feels real.
Thanks for sharing!

This is the first time I saw a mention of WTF-8 [1] and WTF-16. From the spec description this seems strange to use this interoperability "hack" (using the word from the spec) as the foundation of the string proposal. I wonder if they could use UTF-8 instead and keep WTF-16 for interoperability with JavaScript.

> WTF-8 [...] is a superset of UTF-8 that encodes surrogate code points if they are not in a pair. It represents, in a way compatible with UTF-8, text from systems such as JavaScript and Windows that use UTF-16 internally but don’t enforce the well-formedness invariant that surrogates must be paired. WTF-8 is a hack intended to be used internally in self-contained systems with components that need to support potentially ill-formed UTF-16 for legacy reasons.

That's not how percents work.
I do understand, but what you're describing is bad for Amazon's customers, as you note yourself.

Furthermore, again, no one is obligated to sell with Amazon. There are thousands, if not tens of thousands of sellers who do not sell their stuff on Amazon. It's not some requirement to do business in the 21st century.

In any case, we can come back to this case a year from now, and we can pretend to be shocked when nothing meaningful happens to Amazon.

I'm not sure you used Twitter much before he bought it, at that point was full of village mobs roaming and brigading anyone they felt like. To be honest that's actually calmed down since it's changed, they've probably all left to their very own echo-chamber mastodon instances.
I don't understand how someone can use pandas if they have a choice to use something else. It almost feels like a language of it's own.

I'm more into Scheme than CL, but am aware of Coalton. My current lisp is Gerbil: https://cons.io which already has a type annotation system and will be enhancing it for the next major release (v19).
Indeed, webassembly is moving extremely slowly. I started a project years ago expecting https://github.com/WebAssembly/memory-control/blob/main/prop... and https://github.com/WebAssembly/memory64 to be fixed at some point. Neither are yet, and the project still suffers from it to this day.

I think wasm is still great without these fixes, but I have lost confidence in the idea that wasm will reach its full potential any time soon.
That's the thing people don't get about making competitors to Facebook, Twitter, and other centralized platforms as well.

You don't need to boil the ocean in order to serve a single community. For example, Facebook started in Harvard and its value to everyone in Harvard was based on how many people in Harvard used it, not how many people in the world used it.

Similarly, if a single product vendor and their customers form a community, then a free market of fulfillment companies can spring up to stock that specific product, and then partner with the delivery companies (who have their own networks) to deliver the package. You might say that the delivery infrastructure is a cartel, but they're open to everyone and Amazon has been relying on them until finally spinning out their own. Same goes for CPU chips that Apple relies on etc.

Look at IPFS for example, competing with AWS for storage. It is growing every year and now powers 1% of all storage worldwide! And there is a free market.

Whereas these platforms are all centrally controlled by some billionaire (Zuck, Musk, Bezos) and his crew. You don't need to have their scale because you don't need to serve ALL COMMUNITIES IN THE WORLD on day one. If you have an open source software like Wordpress or Magento, you can serve your customers with web hosting instead of Shopify or Amazon. Now the only question is, who would do fulfilment.
I wonder if some day a zero day will be snuck in that bricks every phone. How chaotic would that be!
Yes. I think the most accurate way to look at this is as a trade barrier to protect a local industry. By mandating a certain percentage of Canadian content, the CRTC effectively subsidizes Canadian media.
I think US anti-trust law has been far too toothless for far too long. I wish we had some politicians from the 1920-30's that would actually go after big companies instead of taking bribes. Did I say bribes? Sorry I meant campaign contributions.
> This attempts to hide inter-keystroke timings by sending interactive traffic at fixed intervals (default: every 20ms) when there is only a small amount of data being sent. It also sends fake "chaff" keystrokes for a random interval after the last real keystroke. These are controlled by a new ssh_config ObscureKeystrokeTiming keyword.

So does it send these phantom keystrokes only when there are real keystrokes?

On first reading I thought it sends periodic+random keystrokes and so {Client,Server}AliveInterval option(s) may not be required to keep the connection alive. Need to try and confirm the behaviour.

This version also changes ssh-keygen to generate ed25519 keys by default. Time to update scripts that generate keys without a '-t' arg.
I miss when this forum wasn’t so vitriolic.

Of course humans also hallucinate, but we didn’t have to take that into account every single time we read a piece of information on the internet. Humans have well-documented cognitive biases. Also, usually, a human’s attempt to deceive has some motivation. With LLMs, the most basic of information they provide could be totally false.

It would be more difficult to expound on a single issue than multiple, and usually a lack of dynamic isn't well received here on HN. I'm confident that most folks know little of Florida and care even less. My comment made reference to the reckless development occurring here (and elsewhere) by eg Lennar. The aesthetics are self explanatory, but the tangible consequences are perhaps more insidious, particularly for those coming in from elsewhere who have minimal understanding of 'natural' Florida to compare to. Florida, before retention ponds and sewage reservoirs were lobbied to qualify as substitutes, comprised of extensive wetlands. Lennar and others will grab huge tracts of land and install the antithesis of what they removed. Vast arrays of identical, shoddily constructed 'homes' stacked tightly beside themselves. The landscaping consists of hybrid grass that requires heavy maintenance and the plants are often growing in a layer of imported construction sand which requires never ending fertilization. Beyond the glorified retention ponds that pose as lakes, no efforts are made to retain any vestige of the original landscape. Wildlife is severely displaced and an alien, and I think verifiably hostile terrain, now sits beside a formerly natural terrain, which is usually scheduled for additional projects of identical quality.

Considering that books are written on the subject, it's not reasonable to summarize what's happening in Florida in single comment. The subject may be easily dismissed here as trivial in the carbon tunnel vision of wondrous 'hackers', but it's very real and recognized by many.

If you're young enough, you'll see the future look back in great disgust at what has been done to this state and others. If all newcomers to Florida were constrained to visit only Disneyland, they'd probably and understandably think it was an accurate representation. Lennar is Disney, without any of the cool stuff.
I expect they're already used to dealing with it.
