Christopher Alexander: An Introduction for Object-Oriented Designers [pdf]
Flaws in the current system are still flaws regardless of if there's an alternative on the table. Capitalism does suck but it's not even the system we've got - we've got this weird mix of free and un-free markets that we live under that resembles capitalism on a good day, but more closely resembles anarchy a lot of the time because there aren't government regulations and when there are, there's regulatory capture so the powers that be do what they want and the rest of us just line in their world.

We're allowed to complain about the shortcomings of the system we live under and as humans we find connection by finding commonalities with others, even though we may not have a solution for any of the problems. You might be unable to have problems you can't fix, but everyone else has to live with them.
> Flying an airline that doesn’t operate a specific model is the most (and almost only) reliable way to avoid one.

Even that could make you end up on a 737 Max, if the airline you have your ticket via actually "outsourced" (simplified and not the right word) the actual flight to another airline, which happens sometimes.
That's not true, and we'd get to a much, much worse place if we relied on that. The industry put the current system in place because it could see that airlines would make gruesome compromises if consumer choice was the only thing driving safety.
> Both cost time, which is finite and precious

As social animals who will eventually face the loss of every friend we've ever made, cultivating both a good network of friends and a kind of internal resilience is probably the best way one could choose to invest their time.

There are many very questionable ways to invest this finite/precious time, and most of us don't think twice about how much of it we squander (e.g. spending time online). There is a small category of things to focus on that is almost universally worth the effort: sleep, diet, exercise, social connection. Focusing on these things also tends to help establish that inner strength.
It's interesting to see these 2-9% improvements from version to version. They are always talked about with disappointment, as if they are too small, but they also keep coming, with each version being faster than the previous one. I prefer a steady 10% per version over breaking things because you are hoping for bigger numbers. Those percentages add up!
Strong agree with this, although worth noting that a crude back-of-the-envelope calculation suggests that the 737 Max has a rate of fatal accidents per mile that is only safer than driving a car by a factor of ~10. (See below.) Since cars are one of the most dangerous forms of transportation, it's certainly not crazy that people would want to avoid an airplane model that's only 10x safer than a car. Bicycles are only ~3x as safe as cars, and people reasonably use the danger of biking as a reason to not commute that way.

(In comparison, air travel is usually safer than cars by a factor of 100 or more. It's hard to even estimate how safe it is because there are so few commercial airliner crashes.)

There's also an inherent difficulty in trying to attach a risk to a single model of airplane, rather than broad activities like driving cars or bicycles, due to lack of data and data inhomogeneity. It seems reasonable to me to put some Bayesian probability on the 737 Max being significantly more dangerous than it naively appears (say, by another factor of 3 or 5) due to Poissonian noise and factors we can't observe.

> 1,300 aircraft have been built since the [737 Max] first started flying in 2017, with two deadly crashes. I don't know how many miles those have accumulated, but presumably it's of order 4k miles per day per aircraft, and maybe [1.5] years ([500] days) of flying to date per aircraft on average [in light of delivery dates and extensive groundings], giving a very rough estimate of a [~2] billion miles? So maybe a deadly crash per billion miles, in comparison to a bit over one deadly crash per 100M miles for cars.

> but it's really harmful to people's ability to cope when difficult to avoid or unavoidable stressors hit.

It's one thing that we get the occasional natural disaster, financial crisis, or some war in some remote country. We can handle that, this has been the case throughout human history.

But we just came out of a four-year pandemic (and hell, if you look at sewage monitoring, hospitals or half your colleagues being out sick, it still isn't over), after decades of wage stagnation, multiple crises, seriously escalating wars, exploding rents, masses of people living on the streets in the US, climate change is looming, autocrats are on the rise across the world - it's fucking enough already. Politicians aren't doing a thing to help us, no one is looking out for anybody else any more because no one has the mental/physical/time/financial resources to do so.

We are in unprecedentedly bad times, and I can completely understand anybody saying "screw this, I'm out" and just going mental in one way or another. Some resort to drugs, some just break down completely, some off themselves, some off others - everyone reacts different in response to too much stress.
No just curious. I understand how your indexing structure based on SSTables could find it challenging to support substring search in general. I think it tradeoff between fast querying and flexible functionality
You're being down voted I presume because people don't understand just how harmful toxic circles of friends and family can be.

My wife and I have polar opposite backgrounds - I had a small group of supportive friends and family, and she had a group of friends and family that, she came to realize, only wanted her around when they needed something from her.

Unlike you, she didn't cut missy l most of them out completely, but she has been rebuilding those relationships with much healthier boundaries.

It's a work in progress, though, because there's a lot of bad water to get under the bridge, so to speak.

That said, she's happier than she's ever been, and far less stressed.
I realized it months ago, years even and then I remembered an insight from decades ago.

Boeing bad, mkay. Always has been.
Surely the A320 would be the primary Airbus equivalent?
Seems like a fatal flaw in the product where precision is the most important aspect.
> Finally, one thing to keep in mind is that some software dev people are just full of themselves with big ego.

> instead of blindly applying tradition just because it flatter their ego

I understand this is really the core of your complaint; we agree that reproducibility is important (for more than one reason), but you don't understand software engineering as a practice, and judge it based on strawmen and perhaps bad experiences with poor, ego-driven developers. Every field has big egos, especially highly competitive ones like finance and academia.

Good engineering is absolutely not about "blindly applying tradition".

Except according to the top comment,

"A lot of people don't realize that the fuselage of this plane isn't even made by Boeing, it's made by Spirit AeroSystems which also makes components for Airbus.
We don't really know who to blame here until the investigation concludes."

So I guess you just shouldn't fly.
I’d argue the vast majority of people would like to be givers, but they lack the ability, security, and situational awareness in order to follow through on it.

Most people in my life seem to jump at the opportunity to help if I make my needs clear. I don’t need to ask at all, it’s just a matter of if I present a problem or situation that they know and can solve. I’m much the same way. Perhaps it’s because of who I’ve surrounded myself with, but I find strangers tend to lean this way as well. People want to help. They just need to know how and be able to. Crossing that gap is usually the hard part.
I prefer pre-recorded classes. It saves me the hassle of taking notes and preserves the instructor's sanity. I don't like class discussions.

The instructor's role is ideally to answer questions. Having to orally re-deliver content to a huge room of people feels archaic and inefficient. This does require the students to be motivated to learn the class. The challenge is maintaining the motivation for the extraneous content required for a degree but perceived as unnecessary by many students. If I am learning information security, I am far less interested in art history.

I believe any course should be waivable by a conversation with the instructor. Someone using LibreOffice on Linux is wasting time in the intro to computers course.

I once took a course on introduction to Internet. I advised the instructor I was an experienced CLI Internet user but wanted to take his course to learn how to explain complex technical topics to a non-technical audience. I also informed him that asking me questions could derail class discussions. We talked about Unix shell applications like archie and gopher in that class.

The instructor was great and I learned a lot about presenting technical content to non-technical audience, which was my goal. He once asked me a question during a lecture on NNTP on the permanence of Usenet posts and I canceled his post with a control message. ;)
We do in fact blame third parties for their components in regards to recalled components that are subbed out by final manufacturers. e.g. Takata airbags.

No, it's rather that the economy is saying that the overhead and labor to manage renting - the handling of issuing/recovering that dozen tools and the associated issues with payments, damage, fraud/theft, etc - is too large and it's cheaper/more effective to simply mass-manufacture more cheap tools.

The renting solution would have more GDP, because it would simply be more expensive - and that's why it doesn't really exist.
it took me like 5-7 years to find my way back to the old ways from within the muck of frameworks and high level maze/jungle that is there now. just to explore and learn my system... but i do recognize, programming itself has changed. less people are programming computers or devices, more are hooking in to frameworks, both are programming and creating cool stuff. i hate the jungle though, its a hot mess with lots of mosquitos and other bugs that constantly bite u!

i am rather in the desert, where there is nothing and the few bugs you encounter are avoidable, but super fatal at the same time when not avoides or handled with care :')

Sure, once you're in the plane and can look at the emergency pamphlet that provides the airplane model number, that's when you'll know...or just ask the crew? Either way, ticket info by the airline seems to be all you can work with until you're on the plane. If your concern is the potential type of plane, you'll need more statistical analysis of the route (and any public data about the airlines' fleet).
> I think males are the ones in an epidemic of loneliness.

I think that this sort of thing is more likely to make loneliness worse, not better.

> Girls have easy options for immediate companionship - just jump on any dating app and swipe right once.

What? I suppose so, if what you're thinking of is just hooking up without concern for partner quality. If, however, what they want is an actual companion, it's no easier for women than for men (and I've heard many women make persuasive cases that it's harder for women.)

People will upvote and downvote on this site as they please, and caring about it is a recipe for a bad time.
For the majority of drivers, the risk is primarily out of their control. This is because the majority of risk is due to a minority of drivers (the highly accident prone and the drunk, who are often 10x as risky or worse).
I've seen a lot of commentary online recently related to this topic and definitely think it will be an upcoming trend. I think it's interesting how the author of this article mentioned LLMs. We all know that we have some kind of smartphone addiction, but I've never considered how humanity could potentially become "addicted" to LLMs in the same sense we are addicted to our smartphones.

GET requests are supposed to be safe[0], if you have a unsubscribe link, you click that link, it makes a GET request, then unsubscribes the user, that GET request is no longer safe.

How I've seen developers approach this, is the initial GET request loads a form, and requires that the user clicks something once more, to then submit a POST request and confirm the unsubscribe action.

>But I rather have to wait some hours for the next flight than take the risk to die because of Boeing.

So you'd rather lose a few hours of your life waiting at an airport, than losing a few minutes of your life over the risk of dying from a 737 Max? Whatever floats your boat, I guess.
>When was the last time Samsung innovated anything?

Ehm...... You may be using their DRAM or NAND.
Here we are again, this misconception just won't die.

In the 737 MAX, the only way to disable auto-trim also disables powered trim (the thumb buttons). As grand parent says, at a certain step in the sequence it was not physically possible for a pilot to trim the plain back to stability manually. It simply can't be done.

In the 737 ng, there was a button to do just that. That would have been useful.

And that's even ignoring the fact that all symptoms were very different from those present in a runaway trim situation as described in the manual and learned by the pilots.
One thing I've found important in life is to extend your time horizons. You obviously gotta have money to eat, and you should have some time and a tiny bit of money to enjoy life here and there, but focus on where you want to be in five years or even ten years.

If you can build a solid reputation as an expert in a handful of technologies you can get something called an O-1 Visa that can skip the line if you want to immigrate to america or somewhere. You can also get companies to make an exception for paying international people if you have a reputation.

You don't have to become the world's best Python programmer or something, you can specialize in niche technologies that have enough of a market. I'm sure this is not an easy path, and can take a long time, but my point is there are ways to make money in this industry through non traditional means of just going into an office in New York or London or something.

Good luck, keep building.
It's interesting to see how the DC-10 would have been treated in modern times with social media and mass (moreso) communication.

I've flown on Maxes and will continue to do so, even with the problems they've faced a flight on one is still far safer than many I things I do every day.
You might try flipping the fob over
I largely agree, but I think it speaks to a larger point about the news landscape and how people access and use the news. How people use the news has shifted. Instead of a way of getting informed in order to hold elected officials accountable, for instance, it's used to confirm one's personal leanings --- essentially to make their reader/viewer comfortable. There's the story and the news, and then there's how it is presented. Comforting and confirming someone's personal leanings is a much more effective business strategy than a recipe for good journalism, and yet here we are.

It's possible for someone to trust and agree with the presentation of the news; to distrust, but agree; to trust, but disagree; or to distrust and disagree (there's also not caring at all, which is another issue all together). In TV, you might call these segments. In my view, most news organizations have become hyper focused at catering to the "trust and agree" segment so much so that it has become the majority of what they do. All they work on is comforting that segment. I think much of the popular dissatisfaction and distrust with news orgs in general, is really that in 2024 the news is actually not very useful. Instead, people are starting to see that it's kind of more like an imaginary friend who never disagrees who and who offers you comfort almost on demand.
The problem here is that iCloud is the proprietary crap. They don't offer an appropriate API to get photos out. It'd be easier if you were starting with pictures in something more accessible.

That said, I think Aura frames will sync from iCloud via their phone app. Not sure how well it works.
is a 737 MAX even a sufficiently specific identifier? I thought this issue was specifically to do with the 737 MAX 8
Yeah but as mentioned that's 2-3 days worth of round-trip time for each iteration. Meanwhile, the Conrad in Munich Center was... 15 minutes by bike, less if I ignored traffic rules.
Out of curiosity, why? I have a very different perspective and am having a hard time seeing where you're coming from. From my perspective, the Moon's just a huge dead rock that makes Mars looks like a tropical paradise. 2-week long days with boiling temperatures, followed by 2-week long nights with temperatures near zero. All while getting pounded endlessly by meteorites with no real shielding. Placing ashes or souvenirs on it seem completely innocuous to me.

I also just did the math, and if each human on Earth used up a square foot on the Moon with this sort of stuff, there'd be enough space for more than 400 trillion people, which is a long winded way of saying that the amount of space used up is effectively 0. So I'm just not really seeing the downside?

I've also been interested in a different kind of "PC-compatible non-x86", as in building a standardized architecture with all the normal pieces and just swapping out the CPU. It is 100% possible to make a machine with an arch64 CPU that boots using UEFI, handles device enumeration like a PC, has the usual buses and everything, lives in an ATX case, and in every way it looks and acts like a regular PC that just happens to have a different CPU.
I dislike wired headphones for daily use and I've wanted small wireless in-ear headphones since long before the wireless earbud explosion kicked off. However, I still really, really want the headphone jack back. Mainly for connecting to non-wireless sound equipment, for easily attaching a microphone and for phone calls where sound quality is important.
IMO "apps" is something of a red herring. I don't think a whole lot would change if somehow everybody switched to web versions of big social media; they'd just be endlessly scrolling in a single browser tab instead of in a single app.

This effect was apparent back before smartphones became ubiquitous, where desktop users (especially more casual/less technical) were spending disproportionate amounts of time on Facebook and YouTube. It's where we first started seeing people sourcing their news exclusively from social media.

Some qualities of apps may bolster this effect, but the root problem lies in the addictiveness, convenience, endlessness, and network effects of large platforms.
