Ah ok. I'm an interested in this as a topic and would like to take a stab at this as I think it's an almost impossible project. I would like to caveat any opinion first by saying these: I have a great deal of experience customizing and creating little bits of bespoke functionality for various ERP systems (SAP obviously but also some of the smaller ones aimed at niche markets eg construction). I also have similar experience with similarly complicated and sprawling PLM systems. I've spent basically my entire software career around ERP and PLM systems and systems that break out pieces of ERP functionality and try to often do it elsewhere (usually badly), and then usually have to somehow bring everything back into an ERP system anyway, either manually or with at least some level of (but rarely complete) automation.

I am a CS graduate from a 'famous' UK university (UCL). I'm also a qualified CAD engineer, project manager within agile (DSDM agile etc)...ITIL qualified etc. i.e I've spent a lot of time across these kinds of many tentacled systems that really do reach across the entirety of any large business. I've worked with these systems from FTSE 50 businesses to small 50 person manufacturing startups.

I've also been involved in the migration between PLM systems (horrible from a data perspective - all those CAD files etc) and also ERP systems (horrible but largely just the mapping between two different Entity Relationship Diagrams almost incomprehensible to any living human in terms of complexity).

It would be an incredibly ambitious undertaking to compete with one of the major players in either of these spaces. It is not something you could really even do at the scale of a start-up the likes of which YC and the media understand as 'start-up'. You would need so many not just 'early stage' founders with wildly different skillsets, you would need effectively an entire large manufacturing business, from end to end, in terms of personnel because your 'domain expert' essentially includes 'every business function you can imagine'. That's before you could even begin to think about software. It's a fascinating idea but think about it - procurement/purchasing, warehousing and logistics, engineering and design, sales and marketing, finance (very important here), HR, operations, R&D, Q&A...and these are just the ones I can think of that I have come across in my dealings with these systems. They really do touch every department.

The length of time to market would also be such that this kind of project would not really be appropriate to describe as a 'start up'. You'd essentially be creating a 'Unicorn Killer' and that unicorn killer would need insane resources to even have a chance at market success. The number and requirement for specialist migration tools into your new system from existing clients would be a 'massive' undertaking also.

It's such a bold idea but I think to describe an undertaking of that size 'start-up' would be to completely stretch the meaning of the term 'start-up' so far beyond its usage that the term would lose all meaning.

This sounds like it mirrors my usage. Basically treat it like pairing with a really junior dev: assume everything it writes will be wrong and then go from there. If you do that then best case it speeds you up and worst case you waste a little time reading what it wrote that was wrong and ignoring the suggestion and moving on.
So the problem is the same: trusting the server. At least small Matrix servers aren't huge targets for attacks, since they don't serve so many users.

Also on Matrix you can run your own server.
A lot of the comments here are dismissing DevRel as just "marketing", or "tricking people" or "they just exist to sell stuff". And I think these comments are missing the point.

While DevRel may include aspects of marketing, and it may indeed result in more sales, it's an oversimplification to classify it as such.

Twilio was a pioneer in this category, and one way they framed this was: "Good API documentation is marketing for developers". Good API documentation is a good thing. A good DevRel team (among many other things) makes sure documentation is rock solid, and does everything they can to make it easier for developers to onboard and succeed.

Contrast this against pure marketing approaches that are more focused on attracting attention from the C-suite and leave devs to pick up the pieces and determine what's actually real/possible. Pure marketing is often hard to distinguish from bullshit and sells stories and aspirational outcomes. DevRel "marketing" is about making sure the people implementing the tech are able to successfully do so with what is actually real and possible in the product.

While it's true that the role may exist for the purpose of selling more product, it's also true that the output of a good DevRel program involves real value to everyone involved. If you're a developer who needs to work with the product, the fact that you're more likely to prefer <Product with a good DevRel program> over <Other Service> is based on the fact that the product is just better. And it's better because they pay attention to the things that matter to developers, and a developer-focused product that doesn't pay attention to developers is worse than one that does.

Pure marketing benefits the company trying to make money and often papers over reality. DevRel focuses on ensuring actual success, which is a meaningfully different approach and outcome to a typical product marketing team. Good DevRel often reports to the engineering org, and may be at odds with the things that marketing says.

Disclaimer: during a career mostly spent writing software, I spent a year or so in a DevRel role. My job mostly consisted of acknowledging the parts of the product that sucked, and not pulling any punches when discussing options and solutions to problems. Over time, I came to see the role as a kind of liaison between engineering, customer developers, and marketing/sales. The #1 goal of the role is to establish developer trust. And establishing trust means telling the truth, and trying to solve real problems. I was often the one telling marketing to stop the bullshit, because it made everyone else's jobs (including our customer's) much harder.

Funny choice of example. You’ve always been able to use Word as a remote spellchecker over COM, and as of Windows 8, spellchecking is available system wide and runs in a separate process (again over COM) for sandboxing reasons.

JSON over TCP is perhaps a silly IPC mechanism for local services, but this kind of composition doesn’t seem unreasonable to me.

Op should also probably consider running future posts through a spell checker. There were quite a few obvious misspellings and words that I had to double take on because they were the completely wrong word to use in that context and some other word should have been used instead

i have used the MissingThing approach a few times, incl. as specific pre-existing NullRecord in SQL db to avoid having null-FKs. But also as NotPassed singleton for default func args etc.

In Some cases it worked perfect (like in math: 0 is just another number - as long as you don't divide by it), sometimes it needed extra "arithmetic", but still worked... and Sometimes it did not work.. and was abandoned, as handling nulls was much easier than handling ThisSpecial stuff.

Sometimes it is possible to avoid the zero thing all-together but needs a magnitude more thinking on higher levels of abstraction.

btw: has anyone heard of array-of-negative-size? Like a eating hole (if positives are a peg) .. 5 + -3 == 2, so app-ending such 3-hole to a 5-peg array will shorten it to first 2 only..

> But I'll argue that Accessibility is actually more important than Security because dialing Accessibility to zero means you have no product at all, whereas dialing Security to zero can still get you a reasonably successful product such as the Playstation Network.

I'm fully aware that I'm commenting with a drive-by facetious block quote, but it is a reality that "insecure but accessible" has more users than "secure but inaccessible".

> Because they can't form a union in the first place due to union busting tactics like compulsory meetings that talk about how unions are bad, hiring consultants that spread fear and misinformation

This doesn't actually prevent you from forming a union unless you believe what they tell you. Which you might, if some of it is true, but that's a poor reason to prohibit them from telling you.

If employees can't even be bothered to hear what the union has to say then chances are working conditions aren't all that bad. If they are, and then they have to hear from the boss as well as the union before making their decision, what's the problem?

> or just threatening your livelihood by firing you for even attempting to form one.

It's very difficult for the law to prohibit this in practice because there are always a dozen other reasons why someone might lose their job, and "you can never terminate someone if they're trying to form a union" doesn't work because sociopaths would abuse it by making some noise about a union so they can misbehave with impunity or if they suspect they're about to lose their job.

> There's a power imbalance—enforcement exists to help balance the scales so that an efficient negotiation between workers and the company can happen.

People always say this but it's not obvious how it's true. The company can terminate you and you can quit. This is an inconvenience for either of you but you can both actually do it in a practical sense and it happens all the time. If you don't like working there then having them terminate you can even be to your advantage because you get unemployment while looking for a new job.

Employers only have any kind of real leverage if there are a limited number of employers who hire someone with your skill set. But that's almost never true for unskilled labor and the better answer for it in specialized industries is antitrust enforcement rather than unionization, the latter of which just forces you to deal with two monopolists and then you're stuck with no way out of a potentially bad company and no way out of a potentially bad union.

I see no reason to believe that.

There is a law. It authorized the education dept to “waive or modify” loan provisions. But somehow the court ruled that that means only minor changes are permitted. Obviously this isn’t what Congress intended - waiving entire provisions could of course result in major changes.

The entire “major questions” doctrine is a farce. It’s not in a law. It’s not in the Constitution. It’s an invention of the court.

And again: the case never should have been heard. The litigant had no standing.

Heavy compute. Often you might need to outsource the model to another PC and also because it's heavy compute and general models, multiple apps use the same model at the same time.
Rustup arch only adds support for static libraries (unliked objects), and craps out as soon as you try to build a binary.

Exactly. If you don't agree with the OSS terms, don't license your code with an OSS license. OSS is not the default answer because there's no default answer. You have to think about what you want to achieve and license accordingly. Even then, there will be bad actors who don't care about you suing them, that will happen with any license (OSS or not).

It pains me to say this because I started in a proprietary software world early in my career and I hate it for 99% of the use cases but... proprietary licenses do have a place.

> but THEN comes the amp question... and the rabbithole deepens.. and then the DAC and in the end I give up, every time..

Well I have some great news for you!

In 2024, you don’t need to spend mega bucks to get a good DAC or amp. You might not need one at all!

One of the better performing and measuring DACs out there right now is the $9 Apple USB-C dongle: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/r...

I’m not suggesting you need to rush out and buy it, but it’s a good reminder that modern tech is so good that even a $9 Apple part measures so well that nobody could hear the difference between it and a more expensive DAC.

As for amps: The amp story has been exaggerated a lot. A $70-$100 amp could give you more power and better performance than you could ever need (barring exotic headphones that need specialty amps). That’s if you even need one at all.

Don’t drink the kool-aid or take advice from people who learned about Hi-Fi from 1990s or 2000s tech.

> I guess what I hate about gear, is what others love, that there's no one right, no one truth, and that subjective experience has to be taken into account..

Sadly, subjective and placebo are two sides of the same coin in the audiophile world. People will swear up and down that their $1000 amp or DAC or cables are superior to their $100 version, but the claims disintegrate under blind testing conditions.
It's a mixed approach in the end. Bevy is 100% ECS from what I gather. Fyrox is doing a pragmatic approach of taking what's good from different engines. I'm sure as it evolves it will abandon the things that don't work in a Rust context. So to rephrase: there is definitely a need for a game engine in Rust that's not 100% ECS.
The heavy emphasis on “deno.land/x” every single time it appeared was kind of puzzling too, I found it quite distracting compared to the rest of the text.
There is no replacement for reading changelogs or release notes.

Maybe if people did that for their dependencies, we wouldn't have certain software stacks with thousands of them for a simple helloworld-ish backend.

I'm of the opinion that SemVer or any other version arrangement is not to be trusted blindly. When I see a minor version upgrade, it gives me some hope I can upgrade without much trouble but I've been burned too many times to go in blind like that.
I'm sorry, but your comment has a lot of simple facts stated plain wrong, and then it entirely misses the point (which could be my fault for not making it clear what it was about).

macOS and iOS are based on Darwin, which is a BSD-derivative, IIRC there's nothing from Linux in there at all (although IIRC macOS used to ship some GNU programs). Chromium is not the engine, Blink and WebKit are. Android has almost no relation to GNU - sure, it has Linux kernel, but, it's entirely different system on top of it... but all of this is not important.

It doesn't matter if the browser choice is good enough or not. That's not the point at all - today's browsers are going to become irrelevant, just like '90s and 00's browsers don't matter anymore (Trident? Presto? CERN and NSCA stuff?). The fact there are only few engines remaining is the indicator, not the problem.

The core issue that the entry barrier is extremely high, and the foundations are still almost as bad as they were when Web2.0 was conceived. There's a giant baggage of legacy stuff that has pretty large impedance mismatch. The colossuses are growing so fast no one can realistically build a competing one anymore, yet all of them have feet of clay, as they were never meant/designed to grow into what they became through their twisted evolution.

By the way, I can totally understand if someone would disagree with this. Evolution takes weird paths, but somehow ends up achieving impressive results, and if we would stop caring about how things are working underneath (think of a recurrent laryngeal nerve analogy) and only focus on what they can do, maybe it's fine.
That's why I suggested LGPL, which allows the software to be used by closed-source or proprietary software, but any changes to the LGPL-ed library must be made available under the same license.
Portable FLOSS Successor to FrontPage / Dreamweaver?
FrontPage / Dreamweaver provided a bunch of features and utilities that made it very easy to quickly code a static or dynamic website.

Although many use plain text editors now, some of you out there might still be fond of a WYSIWYG GUI experience.

I'm familiar with Komposer and BlueGriffon, but I tried using them (I only used the Windows portable versions) and both either froze on me (at some point) or had errors pop-up.

What are some portable (Windows) FLOSS successors to FrontPage / Dreamweaver that you use?

nor fully correct. lumped circuit theory doesn't only depend on the frequency but also the cable length. EM waves travel at around 0.6C in solids (copper). wavelength = V/f where V=0.6C, and frequency is say 20kHz, which is 9km. If you have an audio cable of hundreds of meters you would need impedance matching.
