do you really feel that way, mate? a bit dramatic isn't it? let me show you a better way.

yo, Yorick Peterse, the owner of Inko prog lang.
you see, I actually want to publish shit for Inko. but you guys seem to only support github. what kind of dance / computer programming should I perform so your tools can show my tool?

and in case you guys don't wanna / cannae support my super sekrit "forge", too bad. this is where we part way.

simple, yeah?
Are you intentinaly misreading my comments? Sure seems so.

If anything, Chernobyl shows us that, regardless of how low regulatory and safety standards are, economic and career interests always push people and organizations to violate them. Hence, the point would be to put even stricter regulations in place.

On the other hand, you took official incident reports as, to qupte, economic recommendations. And you advocated for regulation to be loosened to oversight.

Generally so, HN has a really problem with quantifying risks. In FMEAs, the detectability, propability and severity of a failure mode are combined to calculate a risk value. If a risk is potentially disastrous, and if nuclear accidents are disastrous they really and truely are, the underlying failure modes have to be mitigated rigirously. There is no thought of "some accidents have to be accepted for the greater good" in developing systems that can, and have, killed people. This attitude shows in each and every discussion around aerospace accidents as well... And it is the main rwason I have a hard time accepting software devs as part of the greater engineering community.

Or it might have had a fuller update last week, but from older information (perhaps going from years old to months old) because it is information that has a high processing latency (like census data). Though in this case the date probably belongs in the text with the timestamp representing the edit date, either way both times should be made clear.

Besides chemical properties, citric acid may turn out to be cheaper, especially if bought in large quantities.

But in the end, I think the cost savings of citric vs vinegar vs rinse aid is negligible. Usage should be about 5mL per wash (matches my experience), and even if you use fancy rinse aid, it is still a small fraction of the costs of running a dishwasher.

Note that the article is concerned about professional dishwashers, they didn't reproduce their findings on household dishwashers. Professional dishwashers are very different from household dishwashers, and they use much higher concentration of detergent and rinse aid.
My point is that for a sufficiently large user, you can probably use enough of the 128 cores by yourself alone, that it's more worthwhile to do that and turn off these mitigations : both because it removes a whole class of threats, and also because the mitigations tend to have a non-negligible performance impact, especially when first discovered, on chips that haven't been designed to protect against them.

Yes, you are completely right. In my experience though, the machines do get upgrades if someone insists, and the tech department prefers the easiest possible way.

I remember in a n org I worked a few years ago we got new laptops with SSDs instead of HDDs. Everybody was happy except the people who worked with a lot of data as the first SSDs were very small like 128 GB (still the amount of disk space you would get in an entry-level MBP 2019 I think). So we asked for an upgrade and they replaced our SSDs rather than replacing whole laptops. But I'm sure it's place-dependent.
Y2K's kin are still out there...

I work with an electronic health records system. Recently they delivered a patch to customers because on Nov 8th 2023 around 0100 in the morning their time field internally would exceed its number of characters allowed.

This was weird to hear about nowadays but I was still not surprised.

They botched the patch and it was not a good time when it happened.

A big chunk of their older code based systems use an epoch of Mar 1,1980, another newer code chunk uses Mar 1, 1992 as their epoch. And I've been told their newest platform uses yet another epoch, or calculates times in such a way to not be concerned.

So while their patch increased the field size for the seconds counter, it has done so a few times only fixing the fields that use the epoch about to be hit, rather than all of them. In top of that, after the counter grew by a digit on Nov 8th,2023, they then realized, much to many hospital customer displeasure, that not all their code the displayed medical documentation/results, often sorted by most recent, accounted for the field size correctly, requiring two more patches last week.

Math with time is hard, and even harder to know what systems have moved forward with enough future thought to still not have these surprises sitting in wait deep in their codebase.

WTF!?

Everyone needs to seriously look at DDD again. You want a product?

- Small team composed of a few developers, one or two SMEs, one or two DEVOPS.

- SMEs teach the devs the domain language. Explain requirements in gherkin language or equivalent.

- Devops hand hold the developers to get it into production. (Devops guy can probably be split between 2-3 teams).

Many SMEs want to work their problem, not code. You're helping them.

VBA is anti-technology. There is no version control, there are no tests, automated integration tests? HAH!

*PS: "You build it you own it" Is wrong. You need a small "meta-programming" team that makes sure the teams have the tools they need to own production without their brains exploding. Perhaps these meta-programming teams can be split among a few corporations - as you don't really need them there all the time.
I'm just saying that there is no need to describe YC to posters here.
Imagine using rocksdb backed by S3. You store only sstables in S3. You append the WAL in EBS and archive it in S3. You cache blocks in local SSD. If you want faster WAL, you append the WAL in local-ssd and use multi-az replication in your db and fsync WAL to EBS less frequently than locally.

> What about transactionality, partial updates, running multi document queries, consistency of the whole set of documents.

You do that in another layer on top. The filesystem doesn't provide transactions, yet you do them on a layer on top.

> In terms of scalability there are, limits 3500rps per key prefix.

The S3 metadata is (was?) sharded on key-prefix. You fix this by using more prefixes. By hashing the filenames or something.

> The latency from s3 on a get is orders of magnitude poorer that EBS or LSSD and should be used "infrequently".

Yes, it is. You should use a local SSD for most things.

Pauses. I am experimenting with basic scheme of 25 mins focus and then 5 mins pause. It is mind blowing how it lowers frustration and sort of ensures that I start work only on a clear task which I often tend to loose to easily.
The biggest surprise are the pauses (no, no email checking or web browsing; get up and move around). While formerly I experienced it that I don't have enough time to do what I want to do, I experience just the opposite of it during pauses. Now, what do I do in this time? Wow. That's new.
But also hard to stick to it. But there is more to it, the rules and principles that go along with it.
Not a general solution by far, but for takeaway coffee I like to use a reCup reusable plastic cup: https://recup.de/mehrwegbecher/ that I never exchange and wash myself - Germany only so far, but you might find a similar product. Some places give a small discount for bringing your own cup.

> When individual components of the rinse aid were investigated separately, alcohol ethoxylates elicited a strong toxic and barrier-damaging effect.

To clarify a bit, it's not professional dishwashers (the machines) but the soap / chemicals used for commercial dishwashing. Minor but important when thinking about the broader problem.

Mind you, it gets diluted but those end up in the water supply, as does many other knows and unknowns. For me, the question has not be what effect does Compound X or Compound Y have individually, but when in the wild what happens when you combine A to Z+? Then what?

Wait, wait, let me show you my prompt for generating unit tests.
During the genocide of Jewish people in Poland, one of the officers of the German reserve police who were tasked with the executions negotiated with his comrades that he would kill the children, but that he would only do so after their mothers had already been killed by someone else. This way, he told himself, he was doing the children a favor by ending their suffering because surely they had nothing left to live for if they had seen their mothers die in front of their own eyes.

I'm not saying poker (or advertising) is like the Holocaust. I am however saying people are exceptionally good at rationalizing their participation in acts they would otherwise find morally appalling if they end up in a place where they are part of a system and their ability to maintain their social status quo hinges on continuing to be part of it.

> All in all we have a pretty terrible system, but nonetheless it's almost certainly better than all the others.

Completely unrelated fun fact: Eastern Block apparatchiks used to refer to anarchists and other communists as "utopians" and coined the term "real socialism" (or "actually existing socialism") to describe the Soviet system of authoritarian governance and justify why it never met the aspirational goals Lenin and the Bolsheviks initially claimed they had. It's terrible, da, but it's better than capitalism and only a counter-revolutionary would claim that something more radical would be possible.

If you go back to the days of feudalism I'm sure you can find a thinker arguing in not as many words that while the divine hierarchy may feel cruel at times it is clearly preferable to the chaos of mob rule.

In addition to being non-orthodox, you also have to be right AND it has to be about a topic that lends itself to having a good payoff. You can be unorthodox and right about something but since the thing is 80s era laptop stand color scheme design there simply isn't a lot of profit to be had. It is also easy to be unorthodox about an important (high-payoff) thing, but simply be wrong.

In integrating ZITADEL with Warrant.dev or other tool, you would first rely on ZITADEL for user authentication, which provides an access token(typically a JWT as demonstrated in the article—or you can also fetch the ID token). Your application's backend should validate this token to confirm user identity, either via JWKS or a separate introspection call. Following this, for any user action requiring permission checks, you'd make API calls to Warrant.dev, using the roles or permissions from the token to determine access rights. This is useful for highly granular permission management. If you're looking for Attribute-based Access Control (ABAC), ZITADEL's actions, custom metadata, and custom claims can be used as explained in the post.

Why? Most urls nowadays are unreadable and nonsensical anyway. The only thing that really matters is the domain, and that’s displayed for you in a (hopefully) better way than many users would be able to parse themselves.

Of course, you should always have the option to see the full URL, but why exactly do you need that clutter on display the whole time? It’s like complaining that the browser renders HTML instead of printing it all as unformatted text.
I understand that part of the essay. However; the essay argues that the orthodox privileged group is the one that cannot see that there are truths that cannot be safely expressed, but concludes that this same group should be polite to those that believe such truths exist. If my understanding is correct, how could they know to be polite to those outside of their demographic. For that, they would need to be sympathetic, or at the very least empathetic.

I guess my big problem with the concluding statement is that it places the responsibility of resolving the impasse on the demographic that is apparently incapable of imagining the world from the others perspective. That seems futile in the absence of empathy. Whose responsibility is it then, to establish a sense of empathy amongst the majority of the orthodox privileged group (empathy would be needed in the other group as well of course)?

Consider also that an obligation to be polite and silence ones voice from engaging in meaningful discourse, may very well be what ultimately leads to an orthodox privileged group in the first place, making the proposed solution a paradox.

There’s a simple litmus test for independent-mindedness: does the person in question do the continuous work of collating “news” and narratives from all across the spectrum? If not, they’re likely going with “the current thing” of their preferred echo chamber, which may or may not be real.
> And the secret-hiding doesn't even really work, because I can freely commit code to personal branches on the repository that the Pipeline runs from, and I can run the Pipeline on whatever branch I want, so I could commit a program that prints out the secrets. Ah, but Microsoft has thought of this: if any of the secrets appears in the output, they get replaced with "**".

Github Actions at least allows restricting secrets to be exposed only to specific branches, and in Gitlab you can enforce that pipeline steps using critical secrets can only run in protected branches, so you'd need to fool a maintainer with a malware-laden pipeline change in a merge request first.
For the author: Have you looked at the casing (Text.Casing) Hackage package?
I'm not much of a PowerShell wiz so apologies if this is hideous, but I stuck this in my profile.ps1 a few years ago:

if ($Csc) {
Set-Alias -Name csc -Value $Csc
$Csc = $null
}

It makes the csc that comes with .NET available out of the box on pretty much any Windows system. I'm not sure how good it is at building serious programs, but it's good enough for little static void Main thingys. I doubt it's useful for the same demographic that would be using VBA, though.

That wouldn't be considered a timestamp in my book. For starters, it doesn't have time information, only date information. Quickly asking ChatGPT it gives this answer:
In computing, timestamps are commonly expressed in formats like "YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss" (year-month-day hour:minute:second).

When pressed about this particular time detail, ChatGPT elaborates:
While "YYYY-MM-DD" is a common date format, it's not complete for a timestamp, which typically includes both date and time information. A complete timestamp might look like "YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss" to include hours, minutes, and seconds.

So, no, this post doesn't contain a timestamp, and it already fails in its own advice.

Also, in big corporations, getting approval for spending $20 is as hard as getting approval for $200 or $2000.

Which is why FOSS software took off in big companies, because it's easier for developers to sample things out and then ask for forgiveness instead of asking for permission.

Also, hobbies. It doesn't even matter if you have $20 to spend, or not. Hobbies depending on paid tools are risky.

"let people go crazy with Excel/VBA"

Many years ago a company I worked for used to send out a spreadsheet to its suppliers which they would complete with the products they offered and then when it was received back there was a button in the spreadsheet that would automatically upload the data to a central database.

When I first saw this I was curious how it worked and did a bit of investigation - turns out there was VBA behind the button that established the database connection and uploaded the data. What was amusing was that the user had hardcoded the database connection string including username and password. Of course this wouldn't work outside of the firewall - but I'd be careful about letting people get too crazy.
