here's the article I learned this from. https://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2543/using-hashbytes-...

you'd add a hash column to the table you want to track. this would be used in a data warehouse where you want to track what has changed after a truncate and load. you'd keep additional tables on the side to track added/and delete hashes for a delta copy to downstream application tables.
It's even weirder and more frustrating when you look at RR types like WKS and HINFO that were included in the original spec. Rather than be able to say "I run this service/variant on this port", they included a way to specify which well-known services were running (at the DNS configuration level,) but on the wire it is just a bitmap of putatively open ports.

So it's basically raising cash to speculate in the AI craze at the expense of jobs, and Wall Street rewarding companies for laying off people, which it often does.

It means the publisher no longer host/publish the papers. This can be done at the request of the author or by the publisher in the case of a controversy.

In this case, it seems there is no particular issues with the content of the paper, just that the way the data was collected was not appropriate. A case can be made about the narrow set of data (focused on minority groups) and thus how representative the data is to whatever claims made in the paper. But that require a deeper read into the papers themselves and has nothing to do with the main complain, i.e. ethical concerns.

It's basically a sin against the gods of free markets for any government program to fix market externalities and worse to be successful and popular.

Very similar process, often with the same players, with climate change.

I’m not sure I agree encouraging inversion of control, more indirection and behavior inheritance is an improvement. In the recommended style of most languages, these are probably big anti-patterns.

On the other hand, I never spent that much time working on old Java stuff, so maybe it is a step in the right direction.
This is almost a word-for-word description of the dev workflow for a proprietary embedded OS I worked on as an intern. Even the "simulator" was what you describe - some #ifdefs that turn the program into a cli program using Win32.

This worked for us because our approach was to "make it right the first time, update only when necessary."

> One of the lessons I’ve learned is that the biggest difference between an occasional contributor and a core developer lies in the knowledge about the physical architecture of the project. Roughly, it takes 2x more time to write a patch if you are unfamiliar with the project, but it takes 10x more time to figure out where you should change the code.

Here here! This sounds like such awesome advice.

I wish we had better tools to visualize architecture of running systems. It's crazy to me that reading the code or a markdown file are still so state of the art. Maybe if someone's fancy they'll have some nice Mermaid diagrams. I want the architecture to be able to show itself live. Broadscale macroscale observability, baked in.

I think this would help everyone be able to appreciate & grok computing much more, would help humanity augment itself.
In Oregon, for example, where small amounts of drugs were decriminalized in 2020, police regularly hand out information cards referring people to a drug counseling hotline. Court data shows drug users rarely call.

In Portugal, by contrast, government data shows roughly 90% of people referred to drug counseling sessions by police do turn up, at least for an initial session.

I've had an iRiver h340 mp3 player with 40gb hard drive, not that different from what iPod offered. But when I got an iPod instead, it just felt so much better, even compared to the custom firmware like Rockbox. Same tech specs, but a vastly superior product — a very common thing that I've seen repeated with many other Apple products, like a Nokia 6600 vs first iPhone just a couple of years later.
That's completely feasible and there are languages that do this. It doesn't really eliminate the need to run your program unless the inputs to your program are also completely restricted types like One, Two, Three. In which case yeah, you don't need to run it and the type system can just tell you the answer.

I believe you can do that sort of thing in loads of type systems, e.g. Typescript, but there are languages that intentionally support it. I use a niche DSL that has fancy types like this called Sail. https://github.com/rems-project/sail

In my experience the downsides of these fancy "first class type systems" are

1. More incomprehensible error messages.

2. The type checker moves from a deterministic process that either succeeds or fails in an understandable way, to SMT solvers which can just say "yep it's ok" or "nope, couldn't prove it", semi-randomly, and there's little you can do about it.

Still my experience of Sail is that it's very comfortable to go a little bit further into SMT land, and my experience of Dafny is that it's very unpleasant to go full formal-verification at the moment.

I've done a fair bit of hardware formal verification too and that's a different story - very easy and very powerful. I'm hoping one day that software formal verification is like that.

Heavy packaging definitely loses as miles travelled increases.

Years ago Method defended using thin walled, but non recyclable plastics for their products based on a bunch of factors, including miles traveled, product to packaging ratios, and the recovery percentage of plastic containers. Unlike aluminum and glass, only a fraction of the feedstock comes out of the process.

So if you have an HDPE recycling process that’s 25% effective, you could keep an equal amount of material out of the landfill by making a product with 3/4 the material of HDPE. Which they did (and more) with blister packs.

They list them as recyclable now, but <gestures at the thread> and I think they did the right thing at the time regardless.

I always think of BMW, as an example of that level.

Mercedes is better, but a fair bit more expensive. Bentley, Lamborghini, etc., are inasnely more expensive.

Toyota, Honda, etc. are decent quality, though not at the same level, but are a lot cheaper.

Of all the companies I mentioned, Toyota probably makes the most money (I have not bothered to check the financials, so I could be wrong).

I guess it depends on corporate mission.

Sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that—macOS 14.4 deems us unfit to kickstart
Anyone who's been working with macOS (OS X) for a while is probably familiar with the Terminal command to control launchd Agents and Daemons (launchctl).

I was saddened after installing macOS Sonoma 14.4 that it's apparently been decided that users are unqualified to control these daemons.

A simple example: to fix all sorts of random audio issues, it used to be possible to restart coreaudiod with:

sudo launchctl kickstart -kp system/com.apple.audio.coreaudiod

But that command now returns:

Could not kickstart service "com.apple.audio.coreaudiod": 1: Operation not permitted

I've reported this to Apple via FB13601345. So far I've not received any response.

RSS was to the Internet as CSV is to Data. The great way to move data between applications. IFTTT is a great way to export content data, convert to RSS, and put the data(posts/comments/stories) where you wanted.

The problem isn't scarcity actually. If you have scarcity, "it just works".

It is in fact the opposite. Capitalism fails due to inevitable relative abundance. At some point you reach market saturation. Present abundant resources should be allocated to the future. This doesn't happen. When abundance happens, you no longer need full employment to produce all present consumption needs. However, the principle of hiring the most productive employees and letting them work full time results in the redundancy and unemployment of less productive people, because hiring a single employee has less fixed costs than hiring two employees assuming they both perform the same amount of work. The paradox is that the more productive person is producing the consumer goods of the person that was let go. That unemployed person can't afford to buy his own consumer goods since he doesn't get paid to produce them, because it saves the employer fixed costs. You could think of this as a greedy knapsack algorithm. This algorithm works while there is scarcity, since you can just hire all workers. It doesn't work when there is abundance, since workers have to earn enough income to buy their own products. Note how this relates purely to the structure of the economy. Now the classical objection to this is that the workers who produce but don't consume will save instead, which lowers the interest rate. This is supposed to happen even if the interest rate is already at zero or even negative. The capital market signals that present resources are supposed to be allocated to serve the future. This allows employers to hire the unemployed workers and let them work to satisfy future demand, such as interplanetary travel and colonization of the moon or building pyramids that last more than four thousand years.

Ah, so the problem isn't that they're woke (at least not in a bad way?), just that they're complete morons who don't deserve what google pays them because they never considered the fact that computers can only ever do exactly what you tell them to do?

depending on where you are. Yes. That's the moment you enter controlled airspace. Obviously it depends on where you are. In NYC, it's 500ft. In NM, it's FL10 or 10,000 ft. Either way, you should get the FAA involved so they don't waste tax payer dollars on F-16s. If you're flying an amateur rocket above minimums, it must adhere to Part 101 or be waived by FAA.

Everything below 500 is Class G (the G is for ground!) except right near airports, where controlled airspace goes down to the ground.

Class G can go much higher than 500 feet in some places.
I do it, because, every time I count myself, I come up with “1,” so my resources are very limited.

I’ve worked for companies they had big layoffs and big acquisitions in the same year.

These generally involved getting rid of seasoned employees with broad experience in the company’s products, while the company purchased some shiny new thing that they don’t understand and will never properly integrate even after 5 years. Meanwhile the CEO enjoyed 8 figure compensation, despite having no past industry experience or clue.

This. Happened. Every. Single. Year.
> So you've now compared feminist movements to Christian evangelists. Do you think christian evangelists are important and deserve our attention even if the majority of christians don't care about them?

You seem to have completely missed the point of why I mentioned them. We've now compared many different organizations and social issues. What they all have in common is that there are longstanding competiting interests on both sides, and thus an advocacy group doing its "job" doesn't entail that the opposition magically disappears. An advocacy group hasn't failed to do its job if it doesn't wipe the opposition off the face of the earth, thereby rendering itself irrelevant.

"An advocacy group should disband after one significant victory" is really an incredibly inane suggestion that could probably only be made by someone who doesn't like the advocacy group in question and wishes they would disband regardless of successes or failures.
Seems neat. Is anyone here experimenting with such things on themselves? I'd love to switch my brain from depression to functional.

I think this article makes it to sound more of a conspiracy than it is. Yes, google does not pay much attention to rss and stopped meaningful investment in it a while ago. But I don't think laying such charge as them destroying the rss adoption is warranted. Especially on the proof so thin as buying a company and 10 years later shutting down some services. Google has little interest in RSS, and that's fine, it can do well enough without it.

"Throw my hands up" doesn't seem like a fair characterization. I wasn't offering legislation, I was offering a framework within which the details can be fleshed out that perhaps would lead to practical legislation (I mean, this is an HN comment after all, there's only so much you can reasonably expect). You seemed to disagree with the effort entirely, but your critique merely points to difficulties inherent in legislating nebulous phenomena. I certainly don't disagree, but I fail to see why that should short-circuit the effort. If that wasn't your intention, then perhaps we don't disagree much at all.
