In my opinion SQL is the sub-optimal language.

Whenever I am writing SQL I am not thinking in SQL, but I am thinking in what I consider to be the mathematical sound way, which I translate into SQL while writing. I consider thinking in SQL a much greater mental handicap than having to translate mentally into it.

I would prefer to write directly in what I would consider as a good query language and have it translated automatically into SQL, for compatibility with what is, for unfortunate historical reasons, the standard.

I have not attempted previously to do or use something like this, but work like that discussed here seems like a step in the right direction.

It’s fine if you’re bugged by the writing or argument style, but there is plenty of solid science on the side-effects of caffeine. It’s interesting that you criticize the author for being unscientific and then share a hyperbolic twitter anecdote and cast unsupported FUD on the science. The good science that we have always acknowledges that people respond differently, and yet we usually clump into a normal-ish distribution where the vast majority of people have very similar experiences, and we can quantify how similar and how often, and sometimes why there are deviations. Failing to acknowledge the similarities is as bad as failing to acknowledge the differences, scientifically speaking.

There are other paths to divinity than christian and perhaps the commenter prefers one of those.

A good example would be Plato’s cave metaphor (predating christianity by centuries), arguing that there is an intangible divine world. Mathematics, clearly also beloved to Bach, is a nonreligious tool to appreciate that divine world.

One can listen to the intricacies of the Passacaglia und Fuge c-Moll and glimpse an inscrutable world behind it. Is that not divine?
The problem is people in charge think they can replace people with ai, and a lot of times they can, with much worse results.
It is almost comical how you want to blame those evil 'conservatives' for this - I guess that makes it easy for democrats to have excuses about why they haven't solved the problem in places where they 100% control the statehouse and legislature and the purse strings.

If liberals/democrats were truly in favor of public housing, then places like California would have a surplus of housing options available for everyone - or are you somehow suggesting that even though conservatives that cannot even come close to winning an election in CA, that they still somehow control all the levers of public policy?

Fan of vertical tabs here, it’s a major boon for how I browse, which tends to involve a number of long-running tasks. Tabs work better than this than bookmarks, because cleaning out bookmarks sucks with how undeveloped all browser bookmark managers somehow still are in 2024.

I’m not too partial to nested tabs, but I think “panes” (Firefox extension Sidebery nomenclature) or “spaces” (what Arc calls them) where you can swap what group of tabs (including pinned tabs) is represented by the tab sidebar with a click is powerful, particularly combined with association of a pane/space with a browser profile.

So for example, a single browser window can switch between being dedicated to general browsing, shopping, online university courses, or software development, and if I want to split a pane/space into a new window temporarily, this is possible too.
One issue with functions though is that they can change performance in unpredictable ways. For example a colleague of mine recently altered a function I had written that was used in multiple hot-path queries. The change he made accidentally caused the function to no longer be inline-able on PostgreSQL. Once the function couldn't be inlined then the PostgreSQL planner wasn't able to select the appropriate indices and the performance of several of the queries exploded by about 100x.

So while it's true it can be composed etc the current state of the art planners struggle except under very simple/constrained scenarios.
Who has actually found LangChain useful in their projects? Any time I’ve looked at their docs I’ve found myself wondering why I’d want this abstraction over using something like the OpenAI SDK directly.

Until future tech allows for reformatting code to a developer's preference (which might not arrive any time soon or might introduce subtle new bugs, who knows) we could use some framework to make transparent decisions around that Pareto front, no?

(Of course there is a best way to do it that will optimize the codebase for a function of productivity, reliability and pleasure. The likelihood and the cost of changes are part of that function. Finding and advocating for it is the task of the most experienced, wisest team member. Less experienced team members may (or may not) understand the wisdom of the better decision in time. But this is just my struggle with postmodernism and relativism and besides the point)

Then how can humans often tell that something is generated by AI?

Besides, I wasn't suggesting AI detection as such. I was suggesting crap detection, regardless of how the crap was produced.

You probably don't want crappy human-generated content going into your training set, either.

A fairly typical pattern over the past few decades in the US, at least for professionals, is that they'd live in or near a city after graduation and then move out to suburbs/exurbs when they got married and started a family. There's been an influx (reversing an outflux) to certain cities over the past couple of decades. Of course, there's no law of nature that will continue.

Probably I didn't get the following idea across properly: this is not searching a company dataset. This is just like Google - as in it searches web pages, but with the added ability to filter by owning company industry, size, location, or later once we support it even stuff like tech stack used etc (in that regard it's somewhat adjacent to tools like Wappalyzer), or the HTTP headers present, or any kind of crazy stuff.

If that's still not unique enough (not sure TBH) I guess I should adjust the copy :)). I'm not great at writing copy.

Anyway this is still no a fully fleshed out idea, mostly just scratching my own itch and conquering the difficulties of storing billions of pages.

Thanks for the question and any feedback is appreciated.
Thank you. It seems rather likely to me that people that are more prone to dementia are more likely to be self-medicating with these very high caffeine intakes. Unfortunately I have only anecdata for this intuition, but if you drink these quantities and/or know anyone with experience with dementia, I think you know what I mean.

Idk lots of civilizations had slaves (I almost wrote ancient, but slavery didn’t go away until less than 200 years ago, and human trafficking is still a big issue). But compare Rome with say the Spartans, who had an insanely big slave class, but who didn’t produce the same types of things as Rome.

My pet theory: The daily agenda is dizzying. There is also always several existential/deeper issue looming around/inside. So we can't have time to discuss small daily things, that actually affect quality of life! It has been like this for decades, maybe more than that. It is sad really. Countries also have an attention span, and we can't pick long-term important stuff over immediate stuff.
If a function is marked stable it should not impact the query plan at all, since stable functions are essentially in-lined before planning. If logic is unstable a view is probably going to be a better abstraction than a function.
> I feel like I am betraying all artists just saying this, but I keep coming back to wondering why everyone feels like they deserve the exact same deal like a big-name artist (who bring their own audience I am benefiting from).

Because we want a level playing field that leads to innovation.

Just like we used to not tolerate monopolies in other areas of our lives. Or price fixing.

If you let the top few entities work together to extract most of the value for themselves and keep everyone else out, getting through will be nearly impossible for anyone else and you'll create a system where everyone listens to just a few artists.

It's well past time that anti-monopoly and anti-price-fixing laws get applied to situations like this. And to the disaster that is Ticketmaster.
I completely agree with your point, learning vim motions was quite painful (does it stop before or after this or that symbol, are dashes included, what about underscores, etc)

I remember seeing a vim clone that inverted motion and command, so that d4w becomes w4d, and the exact text included by the motion was highlighted right after pressing w4 . I thought this was a really neat idea! Unfortunately I cannot remember how this editor was called.

Variable Length Arrays were mandatory in C99, optional in C11, and are mandatory again in C23.

I'm curious how these dynamics play out in less popular compilers. If a compiler implemented VLAs in C99, they almost certainly still have that feature for backwards compatibility even after they support C11.

Is there any compiler which appeared on the scene between C11 and C23, and during that window, chose not to support VLAs and thus C99? It's not like C11 itself was very widely adopted, precisely because of the long implementation and industry rollout windows.
> market share agrees

that's not how it works the marked share is there for reasons which have little to do with that, at least when it comes to "non technical people" (i.e. not HN crowd)

1. what matters the most is what is pre-installed (like iOs Safari, Android Chrome, etc.)

2. then what matters a lot is mind share, Chrome still has in many peoples minds the image of "the good alternative", "fast", "reliable", "modern UX". While many people still think about FF as slow and clunky even through a lot of this opinions came from well over 10 years ago

3. What also a huge amount is if you can use it for all task you do. Due to apps like Slack, MS outright refusing to fully support Firefox or for example Notion having had egregious FF only bugs a lot of "normal" users have over time moved away and just never come back. The most sad thing is if you look at the technical details it's seldomly FF fault. E.g. basically every time I looked into it when some media player (and I think it was also the case for Notion as far as I remember) didn't work it was because the sites not being standard compliant with CORS. Another (older) example is FF missing media codecs due to licensing issues which Apple/MS fixed by having an OS and Google by having a ton of money. Or polyfills for bleeding edge sometimes not yet even standardized Chrome features being slow. Stuff like that is in my experience kinda true for close to any (systematic) issue of a sites not working correctly on FF.

Lastly when it comes to non technical people the overlap of people which would stop using FF because of stuff like that and the ones which anyway wouldn't use FF because they use some fancy chromium derivative like brave is quite high.

The reason they are bleeding market share is not because they updated to a new UI.

It's because it's today hardly possible to run a browser which isn't either chromium or webkit based.

> being an idealist

Could you describe your ideals for why websites should gracefully degrade without JS enabled? It’s not an unpopular view on HN, but from my perspective as a web developer, JS is a part of browser application just like HTML, and there’s no reason for the website to work if you’ve disabled a part of the browser.

I suspect “doesn’t have JavaScript” is being used as a proxy for a lot of other ideals that I do understand, like “should work on as many devices as possible” but that’s a rough correlation and doesn’t make the use of JS inherently bad.

For lots of people, especially those with ADHD, a small dose of caffeine will help them fall asleep faster and sleep better. Instead of their brains bouncing around trying to fall asleep, the caffeine focuses it and let's them actually go to sleep relatively normally.

I personally have to make sure that if I consume caffeine in the morning, it's enough to overcome this paradoxical effect, otherwise I often end up falling back asleep.
As my bipolar disorder got worse, caffeine became a non-starter. It's a real bummer. I still try to sneak in a diet coke or a green tea or two on a day when I'm very tired, but the result is inevitably a hypomanic episode right at bedtime. It sucks because I love the taste of good coffee, and decaf just doesn't cut it.
ERROR: A Bug Bounty Program for Science
There is a huge blind spot in scientific caffeine research around habitual use. Every article you'll have read saying "don't drink coffee after 9am or you'll never sleep again in your life pinky promise" is based on the same type of study:
Take people who drink x amount of coffee, give them a large caffeine dose at a non-habitual time, and report that they don't sleep as well that night. Which is obviously not how caffeine is used in real life.

Few things have disappointed me as much as caffeine research. If we can't get something so direct properly studied, what hope does 90% of science have?
The cybercultural moment and the new media field
Yeah, I have the same feeling about ADHD. I would like to go decaf, I really do. Like higher blood pressure is already enough reason for me for quitting it. But when I don't drink caffeine, I cannot focus on anything anymore. Now I haven't been tested for ADHD so I don't have access to real ADHD meds. But those come with side effects as well, so I might just stay with caffeine.
I don't drink caffine on a daily basis but some weeks I do.

One of the big things for me is coffee is not a good one to drink. The caffeine in it may wake me up but it does not fix anything else so I find myself in a state that is best described as really bad morning person for the entire morning. I may be awake but I have essentially a tension at the base of my head and feel essentially hangry without the hunger.

Energy drinks (Redbull or aussie lemonade monster) wake me up much more mellow. I have thought a few times about trying to figure out what else is helping. Its not the sugar as the coffee has plenty.

> Your body takes it as a massive shock and you're stuck with what feels like a migraine for 2 days. Not fun.

Yup, but you can wean yourself off gradually and it's fine. I've done it several times -- just reducing it by 10% of your original amount each day, so you spread the effect out over 10 days. At least for me, zero headaches.

Not gonna lie though -- there is a generalized feeling of a little bit of extra "grogginess" each day. But much less than if you've come down with a cold, for example. And it's far less painful than going cold turkey.

Because you're right -- otherwise the 2-day migraine is awful.

No, you emit all the code in one go, then after you've done that you have some residual pieces of data left one the side: the symbol table, and the list of all the calls of (hopefully)-forward-declared functions. At this point you could run the check on that list against the symbol table, no additional codegen or re-reading the source text needed.

Granted, you can call that a second pass although that's not that different from emitting a function's epilogue IMHO.
