This hits so very close to home for me. I'd rather prefer that certain things stays in ASCII, despite my name and surname are not originally written in English.

This problem is too well-known to everyone who have their original docs written in non-English alphabet (read - everyone with diacritics or cyrillic script or hebrew or heaps of other non-Latin-based writing systems).

To add insult to injury - this is not even about some common transliteration tables from non-Latin to Latin script. Sometimes? rules of transliteration are changed based on local govt whims and if you got caught in such bureaucracy - all hell let loose. You can't obtain a document with previous "latin spelling", because it's changed in a system. This way you may have a ticket with one spelling and passport with another. Or, like in my case, my brother and I have different surname transliterations to English. And my first name would be spelled with 4 different letters than it's in all my other documents if I have to issue a document from scratch. Good luck explaining all this nonsense to anyone, who is trying to "character-match" someone's hard-to-pronounce surname from official document. Even worse when they would try to re-type any of UTF-8 characters without knowing a correct character codes or not having corresponding layout installed (most of the time in international airports and customs).

So, I'm personally fine with something is incompatible with GDPR, as long as certain systems would stay ASCII as long as they can. We'll be opening a whole new can of worms if internationally used documents would be in UTF-8, imo.

If you don't like Musk, just ignore him, pick the next person in the hierarchy and assign the success to that person. SpaceX was successful before Shotwell was president.

"I don't know why this topic polarizes people to such an extreme degree. "

Because people like Elon and Gwynne have knowingly lied or purposefully mislead the public regarding Space X.

An example is the Point to Point travel, this is not every going to happen. Anyone with a bit of knowledge about rocketry etc. knows this has a zero percent chance of happening alone because of the noise it would case. In their presentation they had Zürich as a destination, Zürich is so small that you would blow out every window in the entire city. Launching starship in Zürich will never ever happen.
You're talking about the guy suggesting an air cushion inside a vacuum tube. Meanwhile all he built is "Teslas in tunnels" without even demonstrating "full self driving" in this limited environment.
In my experience with my elderly parents this absolutely won't work. If anything it's more complex since different things, are now hidden in one magic box.

Sure — we see that behavior routinely destroy companies who engage in it, while the opposite causes corporate growth.

This creates a constant flux of new companies engaging in healthy partnership with their employees and old companies cycling back to rekindle growth — and which removes the ones who engage in that problematic behavior, persistently.

So that behavior always brings about its own cessation.

See my point about “Day 2”.

Engaging in Day 2 policy is a choice; working with Day 2 companies is a choice.

There’s nothing at all which requires this phenomenon, other than people make lame excuses as if dark triad behavior is some unavoidable law of physics.

I think it’s very cool. We went a similar, yet different route into the realm of code-generation rather than building our own api framework. Basically we have something which can generate, types, SQLscripts, data and type conversion and security and an express API service/controller based on a mermaid table input.

I think your way is better, but we’re very reliant on express because of our heavy Azure integration and how that’s just easier with express because Microsoft has a lot of tools for it.

Type Safety != Runtime Type Validation. Something being Type Safe means that I, the programmer, am Safe from making type mistakes while developing and maintaining the software. For that to be possible, you need a type system that is embedded in the language and the editor and can continously analyze all of your code types to be correct. Type safe means that any breaking change to any interface will immediately error and point me to all the locations I need to visit, and therefore I am safe from making any type errors.

While this is a neat project, it's not Type safe, as nothing in the pipeline will inform you about a breaking type error prior to running it and seeing the validation fail. That usually means in production. To catch those errors early before they hit production, you use a type system, and one that exists for JavaScript and works really well, is TypeScript, and I find it mind-boggling that there is no mention of it in this entire document discussing "type safety".

In order to trust signed binaries, it is very valuable to be able to verify a binary came from some source.

Australia does well, but not everywhere. We also had our few decades of automania, that saw our tram lines ripped up in the burbs, and sprawl reach outward with highways. I had to battle this old auto-topian design this week in order to take my car to a mechanic, ironically.

There is a train station about 500 meters behind the workshop, as the crow flies. I thought I would just drop my car off, walk to the train, head into the city.

It took 45 minutes of detours and a lot of sketchy sections to actually get to the train station. Lucky to have the suburban train for sure, but this particular old suburb had assumed everyone was in a car, and it simply hasn't put in the work to make it traversable to pedestrians. No sidewalks, lots of dead end roads and uneccessary fences. At one point I was staring at the station, with no way to get to it. Looong impermeable business parks etc. I just wasn't meant to be there by design.

Is Rust a replacement for only C/C++ or also Java/Python/C#/TS? In the latter, I already get some memory safety which I believe is one of the biggest selling points of Rust. Are other benefits of language strong enough that we look into it to develop projects traditionally built in Java or Node?

"The Rust standard library is enormous."

Years ago I tried compiling a rust sample program. The binary size was one thing that put me off.

Today, I see the issue of large binary size has been addressed. The binary I get is sufficiently small.

If this issue of ~500M standard library is fixed, e.g., if some of it is made optional not mandatory, I will give rust another try.

I don't think the left-pad problem wasn't about package namespacing it was about the ability to unpublish packages as well the prevalence of micropackages caused by lack of a decent standard library.

Also npm's bad policy/decision to transfer control of package in the name of predictability(this should probably be avoided for packages that aren't malicious. You could argue for seizing broken/trivial and unmaintained packages that have a good name but even then it might be best to leave well enough alone).

I suppose you're talking about the original dispute which led the developer to unpublish his libraries (which npm stupidly allowed, and cargo didn't). There's a smaller chance of a company wanting a random package namespace then a package name but its not impossible (think Mike Rowe Soft vs Microsoft)

This was my experience exactly. Tried dns blocking google.com and half the internet breaks.
I have an example before this became a thing, and was actually framed as "that's a problem I would love to have".

We were developing software for MS PocketPC, and at one point implemented some registration system that a colleague wanted to approve manually for each user. (Was kind of like a new test or something, can't remember the exact details anymore).

Anyway, me as an developer said: "You care crazy, this needs to be automated, what are you going to do when we get 100 registrations a day?". Business guy responded: "That's a problem I would love to have! I would happily validate 100 registrations per day, because that means we'll have the funds to automate it!".

Long story short, that specific system never took off and automating it would have indeed be a total waste of time.

Since then, I sometimes fall back to the question "is this a problem I would love to have?"

I would call attempting to earn more than a fair share of the value you create “exploiting the company”. You’re the one creating a false impression by insisting that those are the only goals one could have in this situation:

You can interact in modalities besides trying to maximally exploit your partner — and game theoretically, those cooperative modalities are dominant.

The mistake you’re making, due to viewing the world through a Machiavellian lens, is supposing that’s the only or even optimal strategy — when empirically and theoretically it’s not.

That you closed out with a lame insult (“muh incels!”) shows perhaps my comment struck closer to home than you’re comfortable with.
My claim is only type-safety at the HTTP layer. This claim is intentionally specific! As per another comment in this thread, pedantry is the most valuable currency on HN, so this sort of feedback is not only expected but welcome.

I've finally set my mind to properly learning a new language after Python, Haskell, and typescript. I'm looking into Rust especially because of how I've heard it interoperates with Python (and also because it's maybe being used in the Linux kernel? Is that correct?).
IIRC, the user woud get an access token from Facebook for the target site, e.g. Vidio. Vidio then has to make sure that not only is the token actually signed by Facebook, but also that Vidio is the token's audience. The token shouldn't be opaque to Vidio.

I'm in no way an authority on OAuth, but I think the "opaque token" you're talking about is in the situation when Vidio would want to access Facebook on the user's behalf: they would get an access token for Facebook. The token can be opaque to Vidio.

Surprisingly, I am faster in Rust than any other language. Something about my prior experiences just made it click just the right way.

I don't want to program in anything else anymore. I don't want to deal with obscure C++ error messages, C footguns and lack of ergonomics, I don't want to deal with abstraction hell of Java, or the poor person's typing that python has.

I have been programming in Python for the past 6 years, I know all sorts of obscure details, and with rust, I just don't need to think about all of those issues.

No, I don’t think I am conflating that at all.

I’m not a professional rider. Nothing special about me.

Yet on a small hill near my house, with a maximum gradient of maybe 8%, I regularly hit 40mph.

When I need to I’m able to safely decelerate uneventfully.

It’s really not that rare. It happens every ride. I get to the bottom and I just go on with my day.

You won’t suddenly loose control if go past a arbitrary speed. Just read the road conditions and act accordingly.

This is not something only professionals do whilst wearing body armour. That’s an obviously silly suggestion to anyone that regularly rides a bike.

If you must make a car analogy then a better one would be crashing at 80mph on a motorway. If you do it will be life changing.

The same thing applies on a bike going 40mph but I happily do both when I think it’s appropriate to the conditions.
As much as I don’t like using a Google product, I have to admit GCP is wonderful. I really think GCP is the best UX Google has to offer. My favorite feature is that whatever you do on the web console, GCP will show you the equivalent gcloud CLI command. It can also give you the Terraform plan for some already created resources (maybe it’s even everywhere? Not sure)

The configuration and naming of the services is also wayyy more sane than AWS overall, you actually know what they do from the name only most of the time.
> We have a test flight behind us, which showed many tens of seconds of the stack flight.

As became apparent in the post mortems, the rocket lost its chosen flight path the moment it left the pad, probably due to the engine failures. It flew of course, but it was a failed launch from T+3 or so. The safety systems also failed to self-destruct the rocket on command - they thankfully did enough damage for the atmosphere to take care of the rest.

Basically the launch only proved that the parts hold together and the engines produce enough lift. The engines themselves are still far too prone to failure (apparently this was using an older generation, so maybe that part is already fixed).

> There are many successful many-engine rockets. Soyuz has 5 engines but 32 nozzles firing at launch. Falcon Heavy has 27 separate engines. Saturn-I had 8, Falcon 9, Black Arrow 8 - the last one just 4-5 times less engines than Super Heavy. To say it's not proven in the slightest is bending the reality a bit too much.

You're right, I was exaggerating a bit. Still, my layman's understanding is that there is a fundamental difference between Falcon Heavy's multi booster design with 9 engines per booster, and Super Heavy's 33 engine design on a single booster. Maybe I'm wrong on this.

> So maybe - maybe - there are many other kinds of missions where reusability is a disadvantage, but those kinds are clearly in substantial minority.

As I understand it, the disadvantages start once you want to put large payloads beyond orbit. Starship's main goal is to put a payload on the moon (this is what the NASA funding is for) and for this purpose it is much worse than a traditional single use rocket: instead of a simple trip to the moon, the design is to launch to orbit, then do an additional 6 or so launches to refuel it while in orbit, and only then will it have enough power to fly to the moon.

SpaceX is banking on the launch being so cheap with their hopes of rapid reusability that they can do 7+ launches of Starship for less than the cost of a more traditional mission. Falcon 9 definitely is not that cheap compared to other rockets, but perhaps Starship will indeed be.

It's really not that complicated if you know functional languages. If anything it's quite minimal. It just looks a bit weird because it uses semicolons unlike most functional languages. I kind of wish they just kept JSON/Python syntax for attribute sets and lists.
