This looks a lot like an idea I am having for a shell written in GNU Guile. MI am still at the very beginning and POC phase. My ideas are:

(1) making it possible to have any procedure that follows a certain interface to be usable as a "command" in the shell

(2) have a fallback function, that gives you a procedure for a standard shell command like 'ls' (or reimplement your own!)

(3) have piped commands automatically use lightweight processes (guile-fibers) to automatically parallelize work, if possible

(4) pass structured data instead of strings, unless the structured data is actually a string or a fallback command of standard shell is used (although perhaps one could write functions parsing that string output into structured data and have structured data at the next step ...)

(5) provide composition concepts, that make it easy to compose commands or pipe their outputs into other commands

(6) have readable arguments for things like input or output redirection

(7) no need to be POSIX compatible, I just want a useful tool for myself and anyone, who might want to try it at some point. Don't want to get mired in arcane stuff.

Well, many things to consider, probably tons of work hiding somewhere under the hood of all this. I also noticed there are issues with parallelizing things, if I want to keep the shell state local to a command. Previous commands in a pipeline would have to communicate shell state updates down the pipeline. So one needs to distinguish between communication of a shell state update and more input for the next command. Concurrency issues might ensue. I think I will be glad, if I can get some subset of my goals to work.
Looking at big companies is a good indicator of whether "it can scale". If you want to know what scales better, thats when benchmark would be useful.

I've used and implemented both too. You immediately out grow Google Workspace as an IDP whenever you need to do role based access control, like AWS Session Manager for machine access instead of long lived SSH keys. Which is a pretty major shortcoming for an IDP to have.

I'm not suggesting everyone should use Okta either. Frankly I'm not the biggest fan of it myself. But I wouldn't argue it's less secure than Google Workspace when the big G forces you to workaround it's limitations with less secure implementations.

Surely you can input the numbers yourself and find out? Just use the GREET model that is mentioned there, it exists as an Excel spreadsheet.
I wasn’t sure if I’d end up using it, but I got one after realizing how many 4-key shortcuts I need in my IDE. I created some nice colored keys for my IDE and especially the step debugger and haven’t looked back.
Ukrainians as a rule aren't fundamentalist religious fanatics.
I've been thinking of the same thing, and I think the ideal thing would be to use the psychedelics as a sacrament in the context of a weekend-long initiation ritual. Participants would travel into a remote forested location and go through activities and rituals that would give meaning to the psychedelic experience, as well as rituals and activities with the objective of integrating the psychedelic experience into their day-to-day lives.

I have written out a bit of the experience, I can share it with you if you'd like. We're still in the planning phase.

Agree entirely. But it isn’t a dichotomy. We can do both. What you are suggesting is much more root cause. Again, agree!
Just because it has the ports doesn't mean it has the internals to support them. I would check that before doing anything not to spec... it's a power supply.

Do they? I don't think the details of their contract with ARM are public so they might have a very good deal. Also licensing fees are probably a much smaller issue for companies which have very high margins.
I agree that 1 second sleep is an amazing feature of the Steam Deck.

It's also worth figuring out the ins and outs of Steam input: Sequences of keypresses with specific delays, gyro as mouse, repeating presses, use of back buttons, etc.

Showering in this case may be useful, but the use of soaps/cleansers would still probably not be needed. Sweat is mostly water itself, along with salt and some other minerals (potassium?), so a quick shower—using just water, which is a great solvent—will rinse/dissolve most things from your skin.

Worth remembering that body odour is from bacteria and not the sweat itself. The bacteria is determined (partly) by your genetics and the type of sweat glads you have. Eccrine sweat glands go directly to the surface of the skin (secrete: water, NaCl, K), while apocrine sweat glands connect into hair follicle (secrete: protein, lipids,): the bacteria feed off the latter.

The gene on whether you have (more) apocrine glands is ABCC11:

Asians are more likely to have to have the gene variant that makes you less smelly (Allele A).

In the Before Times (pre-COVID/WFH) I used to cycle hard to work everyday: I would shower at home, pedal in with the funny-looking lycra, and change at work. I didn't bother showering at work and I didn't stink. (This concern regularly gets mentioned when topics of car-alternative comes up on HN.)
Care to educate? I know what you're referring to, but besides mindless zombies walking around, what's going on?

I'm not sure how you can make that claim. If you were to bounce off the surface, that would likely not be considered a "gravity assist", no?
If Shopify, GitHub or Gitlab didn't start in RoR, would they have survived such that scale became a factor?
Energiewende, even with its various flaws, has been a good investment for Germany.

If they'd been a bit more aggressive about EVs, home heating and offshore wind they'd probably be even better off but that all got derailed by complaints about costs fanned by climate change deniers and leveraged by opportunist politicians.

Maybe they figured selling purses separately was more lucrative?
Coffee price comparisons always feel a bit odd. I have some control over the price I pay for coffee, how often I drink it, it's quality, if I want to stop paying for it for a while etc. It has no financial equivalent to paying for 12 months in advance for a subscription service.

I don't think about how many coffee's my climbing gym subscription is worth, it has it's own value to me. I think this reflects a core difference between most buyers and sellers. The sellers often see money for what it is: fungible; where the buyer usually engages with a sale at a much more emotional level, even if practicalities are taken into account.

Is that meaningfully different from Apple’s take?
Another way to frame it is "code review is not the right place to validate design decisions".

This type of comment is the hardest to make for me as I know it means redoing a large part of the work from scratch. It would generally be avoided by having quick design reviews before starting to code something difficult or involving sweeping changes. Just highlight how you are going to do it in a few sentences.

On the other hand, letting these kind of things go through usually means you will have to deal with the outcome later, and it will be more painful.

Maybe one way to decide about making this call or not is if you find the submitted version bad enough you are ready to implement the alternative yourself, immediately.

And it happens. With junior devs, or because people are new to the codebase.
Disclaimer: I know next to nothing about 1960s cars :-D

Little is known about this concept, although the original Sunbeam Tiger is a popular classic V8 sports car that was designed by racing driver Carroll Shelby.

Maybe there's a connection? The rest of the rear looks nothing like it but the upper rear quarter-panel has a distinct notch shared by hardtops put on the AC Cobra (a.k.a. the Shelby Cobra) and the front of the car has Cobra-like "snout" and fenders.

This is total guesswork that smarter people could probably destroy in a heartbeat, but could it be a camouflaged prototype? The Cobra was prototyped (and being built at Thames Ditton) in early 1962 – https://www.supercars.net/blog/1962-ac-shelby-cobra-prototyp... – and the arches look oddly rough/plain in that photo. Could it be a prototype with the flared arches removed and a hardtop stuck on?

The Sun? Really? This should come with a NSFW link.

Also this just doesn't seem interesting at all. Is it really hard to believe someone made a car slightly different from mass produced models and that was caught on camera one time?
Are cars really that safe?

I mean, safer relative to what they used to be, yes.

But compared other modes of transportation, not so sure.
Last week, approximately 1,300 Drupal enthusiasts came together in Lille, France for DrupalCon. In good tradition, I delivered my State of Drupal keynote, commonly referred to as the "Driesnote".

This keynote was unlike any other. I narrated a fairy tale that explores how the Drupal community is working together to simplify the process of starting, building, and maintaining Drupal websites. Yes, you read that correctly – a fairy tale.
>It's not zero, but the times where acceleration is the safest option in response to a danger are very much in the minority.

It's not the actual acceleration though, it's the time it takes for the acceleration to begin that's the key for me. The car reacts to what I want at once.

It doesn't matter if the car takes 10 seconds to get to 60 mph, what I like about it is that I immediately notice that it starts trying to get to 60.

The safety of it comes perhaps more from the reliability. EV's accelerate the same way every time, while with a fossil car it varies - maybe you're in the wrong gear, maybe you're at the wrong RPM, and suddenly the car reacts half as quickly as you're used to.

I also think it's one of those things you don't notice at first but miss when it's gone. I feel like I have less complete control of the car when I drive a fossil now after a few years in an EV, but I didn't notice it as much in the beginning.

There are other things that contribute to the feeling as well, like how an EV decelerates quickly immediately when you let your foot off the gas pedal, how they start instantly from a button press (or in some models, when you enter the car), how the gear change from forward to reverse is a flick of the wrist and so on. It all adds up to a snappy experience.
Also, for having watched star wars recently I must say that I "don't give a shit about [it]".

A web framework can be conceived as a selection of design choices already taken for you. The choices RoR does for you are extremely successful and very simple to understand, hence the name: you are developing "on rails" and as such you build things much faster.

This was very true more than a decade ago before the Node revolution adn when the alternatives where Struts or Spring MVC in Java, or Zope with Python. Fast forward to 2023, I would say that other platforms have caught up a lot, but my personal opinion is that Rails still has the edge.
Eh, once you strip away the shiny of today, the work and what we do isn't that much different. Also, it wasn't an industry full of geniuses either as you allude to but a mixed bag like today. The bag is just larger now. The "9-5"ers had it right all along.
Does it though? Is that connector actually functional? And if it is, does the PSU inside have the required wattage or will it trip when you plug something into it?
I've used them for a year, and fell from them twice, the second time because a rubber shoe of the stilt broke apart, and strained a lot my knee. No broken bones, but it took a week to start cycling, then in 2 weeks I could walk almost normally, and it took whole 3 months to stop feeling the pain. I sold them after that.

Running in them is VERY hard, even if you do it properly (landing on straight legs, to not dampen the energy). You can run only at high power mode, like sprint, for 200-300 metres.

Sane defaults for most (all?) aspects of the run-of-the-mill CRUD app, a.k.a. "convention over configuration". Helps focus development energy on solving the problem at hand as opposed to on bike shedding or being slowed down due to decision fatigue.

AFAICT, one has to go with the conventions as far as possible. Straying off the beaten path can lead one to lose time fighting the framework.
> who will pay for any repairs or replacement?

That's what nobody wants to hear about - that heat pumps are massively complicated technology not only expensive to purchase and install but also requiring regular maintenance, in particular also heat exchangers with the low diameters we've come to expect from modern heating equipment requiring decalcifiers and other consumables. I don't know about UK but let be assured in Germany it's as bad or even worse, with plumbers and other craftsmen lacking, energy prices very high (heat pumps, like any compressor, requiring lots of power), and the government sticking fingers into their ears, doing absolutely nothing but drafting completely unrealistic energy consumption projections. Switching to heat pumps would require tens of decades alone, not including the rebuilding or insulating of a large part of houses to make this even remotely effective, which isn't feasible due to interest rates, etc., etc.
I’m sorry, I really believe we should intervene in suicide attempts. We have success stories of treating even the most debilitating and chronic forms of depression. We have zero success stories of bringing people back to life. Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem (in most cases/euthanasia aside)

It's funny that you have to mention that its regardless of right-leaning groups suffering the greater drop. I guess we can now openly say that these companies do have left leaving political affiliation, but in some cases this simply isn't a factor.

You do the same in jumping stilts. You move arms and body in the air to increase jump amplitude, and land on a straight leg to compress the stilt and let it bounce back.

If you try working with hips/knees while touching the ground, you'll amortize all the energy you generated, and exhaust quickly. Beginners suffer from this, and it takes some learning to run properly.

Also, the energy converts from motion into spring load and back into motion, and you can keep adding it. Pro stilt jumpers can jump several times with more and more energy and increase height.

When I took such classes of spring stilts, the coach showed us jumping above 2.5 m. Me and a classmate held a ribbon in our hands above our heads (we stood in stilts too), and he jumped several times towards us, each time higher, and finally flew above the ribbon. This is actually much more work than olympic jumping, where the COG of the jumper is actually a bit lower than the bar. This guy had to jump with COG much higher than the ribbon.

But as I mention in the other post, if you fall down even routinely while running on stilts, it's very painful -- falling forward with your arms extended ahead, you still hit the ground with the ribs. Then they ache a month.
If you don’t quantify these things and perform cost-benefit analysis, it’s like saying we shouldn’t drive cars , because in the worst case you burn alive.

SSRI side effect prevalence is a hard thing to measure for a large variety of reasons. But in [1] only 1/4 patients report the side effects as ”very bothersome.” Given that 100% of patients are so anxious/depressed that they want to try psych meds, it seems like SSRIs are a great treatment option for many.

Oh this looks great.
The point could well be made that they're two kinds of optimism about anything.

The first is dismissive of individual influence ("no matter what I do, things will get better over time").

The second is self-aware ("I can make a difference when ...").

In technology, the "hope for the best" (_future_ tech will solve ...) is rather common.

It scares me a little, because of the implied waiving of individual responsibility.

The retrospective look, learning from mistakes, or even investigating how to apply tech to fix bad results or damage from applying tech in the past, would do us well, ethically. It's very comforting, society-wise, if someone admits to, and makes amends over, mistakes they made that hurt others. It's at least better than that person pointing out no amends needed because future-here-tech-there will do fix it anyway.
Damn, that's cool. Do you have a link to the whole document?

Otherwise, the company(ies) that don't create purses don't make more money selling purses + pants.

Of course, there could be a new company that makers neither pants nor purses that gets into the pants making business.

You don't need to go through Gimp or Inkscape, this is built-in to the auto1111 ControlNet UI. You just dump the existing photo there and you can select a bunch of pre-processors like edge-detection or 3D depth extraction, which is then fed into ControlNet to generate a new image.

I am an armchair layperson with no experience in this, so take this with a grain of salt. First order of business is an audit trail; every operation done on a user's account or data, every change in the system, should be in an audit log containing timestamps, user, etc. Especially things like updating passwords or account details.

Once you have that event stream, you can release your data analysis tooling. A few days / weeks / months of activity gives you a baseline of what's normal, so something that stands out - like idk, mass password or email updates - should trigger alarms.

But that's just armchair hypotheses; is there anyone on here that has experience with audit logs and what to do with them?
