It's possible to make Rails relatively fast.

But Ruby is one of the slowest languages around. And Rails adds a lot of runtime overhead to that. It really is very slow out of the box.

And that matters for virtually no-one¹, because almost no-one is running their rails app at that scale.

That something would outperform Spring is really due to technical choices, the stack, suboptimal use or libraries. Because Java is undeniably multitudes faster than Rails; in everything.

¹ This used to be my strongly held opinion. But I'm shifting around since we're in a the middle of an unprecedented energy/climate crisis and a slow rails app is gobbling up electricity much more than a highly tuned one. Or the same service rewritten in Go or Rust or Java will.
> There is the Arch AUR where the community can contribute packages. I don't remember having had to compile a dependency from source, because everything I need is either in the official repo, or on the AUR

When you install from AUR you are compiling from source though. Unless you're using chaotic aur, which only packages a subset of what's available.

I had a surgery that I had years to prepare. I did much research into costs. There are surgery centers that have transparent pricing all over the US. Surgery center of Oklahoma is one.

I used them as baseline to consider local costs.

I was uninsured and asked the local hospitals and surgeon what the prices were going to be. I did qualify for assistance. I paid my surgeon pronto($2,600) and had to wait for the hospital to approve my assistance application.

The anesthesiologist(which I hadn't anticipated, thought that was going to be in the hospital bill) told me to pay $35 dollars to keep my $1,800 bill from going to collections. Once I showed them the approval from the hospital, they would accept that and reduce it to $180.

After calling the hospital constantly to get the bill reduced, 6 months later they told me they were waiting to see if I qualified for Medicaid, which I was no where near qualifying for and never requested. I just had their standard financial assistance reduction from about $18,000 to $6,000.

In the mean time, my anesthesia bill made it to collections for the full amount. Because.

I tried initially to get all my ducks in a row. I tried to pay everyone. Ultimately, I only paid the surgeon the full amount.

The medical groups will write off the difference between what they billed and what they sold my debt for. This will reduce their "revenue". I won't ever pay them. Bye bye credit.

Cash is King.

Edit: I knew going in what the prices were and two of the three parties fumbled the process of payment. Those two didn't get paid because I was frustrated.

Why would I want to join unrelated modules together into a kitchen sink library? The only benefit of that is to work around bad dependency management systems that make dependencies a hassle to work with. But otherwise, they’re a bad idea. Packages should do one thing and do it well. If I want a good random number library, I don’t want to import bob’s junk draw of random code. I want a small, reusable random number library. I want one that I chose. And my users want one they chose. And if that choice is bad, I want to be able to replace it without throwing out half my ecosystem or breaking downstream compatibility.

QtBase is a symptom of C++’s bad package management. 8 unrelated utilities should be in 8 small packages that users can pick and choose based on their needs.

For software development, quantifying output or defining a finite set of tasks is almost impossible. Unlike traditional industries where tasks can be standardized and expected output can be clearly defined, software development is a different beast altogether.

Speaking from personal experience, my task list is filled with an infinite number of features to implement and bugs to fix. It's a dynamic landscape that changes with every new technology, user feedback, or market demand. It's not something that can be completed within a set timeframe, rather it's a continuous process of improvement and adaptation.

> calling a group priviledged and a geoup being priviledged.

Group based reasoning is ambiguous in English.

When you say a group is privileged are you talking about the mean? The median? The peak? Every member?

Because you could easily have a situation where every person in power is a member of X group while the median member of X group has less power than the population as a whole.

There's also proportion of the total population to consider. If there were a group that only has 1% of the positions of power but every single member is in a position of power then is this group privileged or not? They can't control policy...

And there's also to what extent people in power actually push for the interests of the groups they are supposedly members of as opposed to the interests of the subgroup they're part of.
This is an example where your tooling limits your solution space. There’s nothing inherently wrong with a deep or wide dep tree.

Might they be trying to set a precedent and receive a quick 'no show' judgement?
The idea that either hospitals or insurance companies are single handedly to blame for the mess that is the US healthcare market is naïve.

You can't have a normal billing process when the buyer can't decide what they want.

The problem is: a person can't decide the best treatment for their disease. The extreme case: a person that goes through a surgery cannot decide what care they need or want (they are under anesthesia when that decision needs to be made).

So, someone else needs to manage the cost, not the end customer. Who? Insurance passes the cost to the customer, and companies buying health insurance can't really decide on the care needed by their employees.

That leaves the government to be an effective regulator of cost. The US decided they don't want that.

Fix that before anything else.
>For software development, quantifying output or defining a finite set of tasks is almost impossible

For paid work, it's mandatory. Companies do planning, sprints, tasks, prioritization and so on.

Else it's not software development, is an infinite pile of random tasks.
Blaming short life expectancy on the US healthcare system is pointing to a tree in a forest.

There are A LOT of reasons for this. For example fentanyl probably took quite a bit off it, considering over 200,000 people are dead at this point from it.

So does the obesity crisis.

Now - I think we are probably more in agreement than not, I think there are huge issues with the US healthcare system, the entire fentanyl crises WAS created by the healthcare system, but still - I don't think the root issue, or problem to be solved is private vs public. Switching to public would just mean another set of problems.

For the record, I'm not from the US, and I mostly use private healthcare, despite there being so called free healthcare available in my country. It's just terrible. So it's almost the same as the US - rich people get healthcare, poor don't.
Perhaps this should be an incentive for library authors to finalize the 1.0 API and accept that there's eventually going to be a 2.x down the road, a "less is more" approach.
> Does the readme say to use version 2.2 or 2.0.1? Are they meaningfully different?

If the library is done right, then 2.2.0 should work if it requires 2.0.1, and the reverse may not work (if the program you want uses a feature that was added after 2.0.1).

> and I just remembered, I don’t care. I never care.

Yeah, I think it is a big reason why language package managers are so popular: most don't care.

> When I see a cool program someone’s written that I want to play around with, what better use of my time could there possibly be than figuring out how to submit community

First, probably those packages were already contributed by someone else. Someone who cared.

Then... for the rare packages that may not already be there, I would hope that you could consider spending a couple hours contributing something back to the community you are most likely using for free and complaining about. For most libraries it should not even take two hours, except maybe the first time ever you do it.

> And how is it more secure? Do programs magically get security audits as part of their addition to arch Linux community packages?

As I said above, the ones that are shipped by the Arch official repo seem more secure. For the community ones, it's less clear, but I would argue that AUR users are at least not less likely to review a package than the cargo users are to review a transitive dependency.

> Using a bash script in arch Linux is of course less convenient. But I believe it is a trade off.”

Well if you want to use this as an argument, you should say why it is a tradeoff. Why is it a tradeoff? Are you saying that rsync is more secure than dropbox, but less convenient?

> If you look at the big new languages that came along in the last 10-15 years (Kotlin, Swift, Go, Rust, TypeScript) then they all have type systems of pretty similar levels of power, with the possible exception of the latter two which have ordinary type systems with some "gimmicks".

Those are very different type systems:

- Kotlin has a Java-style system with nominal types and subtyping via inheritance

- TypeScript is structurally typed, but otherwise an enormous grab-bag of heuristics with no unifying system to speak of

- Rust is a heavily extended variant of Hindley-Milner with affine types (which is as "academic type theory" as it gets)

> ... and a lousy store of value

I expect this to be true eventually, but so far Bitcoin has been doing OK as a store of value. Unless people bought in the relatively short peaks, HODLers aren't losing crazy amount of money and one could reasonably anticipate that it'll reach $60k/bitcoin again in the near future.

There seem to be people convinced that the crypto types are coming out a long way behind but I'm not really seeing it in the prices. It isn't as stable as the gold market, but it is easy to draw loose comparisons and acquiring/storing crypto is a lot more normal-person-friendly. It also looks like a strong bet in politically uncertain situations; if there is one asset I'd want when fleeing a country it'd be crypto.

One angle of these bans is that TikTok provides rapid person to person sharing of information via rich multimedia, and live streaming of events.

Its harder to control a narrative and spread propaganda when people can see that others around the world are just like them, talk to them directly, and hear their stories.

The idea that China uses TikTok to control other countries I think is backwards. The platform actually enables significant info sharing between normal people, and we’re seeing this for example in the conflict in Gaza.

The community I live in has a decent number of homeschooling families. The kids socialize just fine with each other, and also with the regular school kids in the afternoons.

In fact, I'd venture that the homeschooled kids are better at socialization, because they're often out doing things and meeting new people. They're certainly far better at interacting with adults. The public school kids who live right on my block are rarely ever seen outside the house after their bus arrives home.

The socialization thing is one of those things everyone believes because at one time, in one circumstance, it was true, and that became the stereotype. It is very much not automatically the way it always works out though.

Admittedly, my experience is entirely US based. Your mention of "division of labor and specialization of trade" makes me think perhaps you're not from the US, so perhaps schools are much better and different where you are, in which case the situation could indeed be quite different. But please be aware that it's not like that everywhere. :-)

What is very is funny is that, in all big and small companies I have worked in or with, no one ever use or discussed BigO. It only shows up in interviews technical tests.

Lots of good software engineers will have the instinctive knowledge of good or costly solutions without mapping it to BigO.

Also, what is funny is that, in my opinion, BigO is used and required by people that want to look smart but are not necessarily so.
Because what we do with bigO is really limited. Almost nowhere the discussion will go further than O(1), O(logn), O(n), O(n2). Because after it becomes hard to understand maths.

Even that turns out to not be accurate.

Just as inaccurate as saying half the country thinks that massacring Jews is an "act of liberation", though there are obviously quite a few people who believe that and those are located on the left.

Yes, there are people on the fringes that believe those things...and both of these fringes are very dangerous. I happen to share the belief that the fringes on the right are more dangerous, and certainly presented the more immediate threat when Trump was in power. However, I understand those who believe that the left fringes are more dangerous, and they do have a case. Both fringes present an existential threat to our liberal democracies, as they both have repudiated those values, so maybe those differences are not really meaningful.

Left and right are not the problem. The fringes are. Both of them. And they feed off each other, so they can only be defeated together.

If you want to defeat the right fringe, you must defeat the left fringe. If you want to defeat the left fringe, you must defeat the right fringe.
