I don't know either! I've tried MacPorts in the past but for some reason I always ended up on Homebrew again -- I can't recall why. I should probably give it another try.

One possible minor advantage of Homebrew is that it works on both macOS and Linux. I recently found this very handy for setting up a project with developers on Macs and CI on Linux. Almost no OS-specific build steps were needed.

A couple more points, from a quick scan of the respective docs:

"Homebrew won’t install files outside its prefix and you can place a Homebrew installation wherever you like." The MacPorts docs are much less clear, I can't tell if it can do that.

Homebrew gives "brew install --cask firefox" as an example of installing a GUI app. MacPorts doesn't seem to have Firefox.

I'm curious what makes MacPorts "much more correct", if anyone wants to clarify that.
I've always wondered why other companies / projects wouldn't claim parts of the ISS for use elsewhere in orbit. Is the amount of delta-v needed to changes orbit and inclination really so high that it's easier and cheaper to send stuff from Earth rather than make use of what's there?

Perhaps we should ask Scott Manley.
Reminds me of the smbc comic about how "pumpkin spice" doesn't contain pumpkin, and could just as easily be called pork spice. Except this has actual pork flavour.

> go to GitHub and navigate through the file tree. On my machine, this feels significantly snappier than the the rest of GitHub. Coincidentally, it's also one of the only parts that is not rendered statically

And it's also the only part of it that doesn't work on slow connections.

I've had a slow internet connection for the past week, and GitHub file tree literally doesn't work if you click on it on the website, because it tries to load it through some scripts and fails.

However, if, instead of clicking on a file, I copy it's url and paste it into the browser url bar, it loads properly.
It's Starbucks Reserve, there's still no experience and the coffee still sucks.
You and 100 other people globally
I believe an approach like this is still likely to bite you later.

When users are only doing one-to-one right now, that's what you're going to be designing the UI for. Nobody likes a pointless dropdown to select the one possible option, after all. So how do you build a "go to pet" button? You just take the first element of the list.

But that's going to silently break the moment you start allowing one-to-many, because that button cannot exist anymore. It'll still compile without any issues - it'll just be fundamentally broken. So when transitioning to one-to-many you still need to go over all code touching it to check that no shortcuts snuck in - but this time you don't have the assistance of a typechecker to verify that you rewrote it to accept a list instead of a single object.

I've worked on one too many projects where the stakeholders wanted "infinite adjustability": it's going to massively blow up your development time, make the UX a living hell, and end up never getting used at all. Unless you already have an "upgrade to one-to-many" backlog ticket planned and the project is just one-to-one for now to get the MVP out the door, starting with one-to-many just because you might need it at some point in the distant feature is almost certainly a bad idea.
Even more fun, AppleCare is $499 at checkout; and comes with a $299 service fee per incident.

Guess how much a cover glass repair costs without AppleCare? To cite yourself... $800.

You literally save... nothing. It's like insurance that pays out your own deductible dollar-for-dollar. Maybe you save $1, depending on where you ask. You really only save money on the second accidental crack. But not the third, because AppleCare only covers 2 accidents.
The same thing occurs for many optimizations. Unless something is unbearably slow and you speed it up 10x or 100x; most people won't notice.

You might spend some time making an often called function return in 1 millisecond instead of 2 or 3 and some might notice that things 'seem' snappier; but no one knows why.
I did not know that, that's really interesting!

At some point Monty also said he had /my/ directory on his dev system which when had /sql/ for where what later became MySQL was developed.

It is quite possibly it is both... we often can name things first and when come up with fitting storie later.

I agree with your guess. High value targets presumably have real effort put into penetration at which point for most of us (single people, rather than megacorps or large countries) it's game over.

It is literally impossible for me to not trust thousands of others as components of my basic security foundation. My only hope is that it's good enough to keep my data safe from common crooks and gossipy neighbors.
One thing completely ignored by this post, especially for actual web applications, is that it doesn't actually break JS files down to see why it is so large. For example, Google Translate is not an one-interaction app once you start to look further; it somehow has dictionaries, alternative suggestions, transliterations, pronunciations, a lot of input methods and more. I still agree that 2.5 MB is too much even after accounting that fact and some optional features can and should be lazily loaded, but as it currently stands, the post is so lazy that it doesn't help any further discussion.

So, I tried the olive oil coffee once because why not?

My conclusions:

* It needed salt

* I needed a piece of bread to dip in.

By this, I mean that the olive oil used was very nice, but it felt like drinking warm olive oil, not coffee.

The nice thing about the whole endeavor is that I now have a recurring purchase in Amazon for the olive oil they used in the coffee, so I consider that a win.
Once something starts to get talked about more widely then it probably deserves a mention, even if it is a gross simplification and really not useful except for describing a very prescribed narrative.
Totally agree. We are social creatures. The only way I would be able to completely stop would be to hang out more at a local bar. I already go to the gym as much as my body can recover from.

At least with HN there is the possibility of something interesting and not just mindless bullshit.

Everything is relative too. I think of my World War 2 vet grandfather. He worked a mindless job, then came home and drank beer until he went to bed while watching TV.

We seem to pretend before the internet that the average person would clock out from their amazing, uplifting job and then head off to some Vienna Circle level discussion about the nature of reality.

While often falling way short, my reality is much closer to that than any of my ancestors could have ever dreamed of.

I would more suggest modelling what you want, and defaulting to 1:n if you aren't sure but not always using 1:n

There are many cases where its important things are 1:1.

I think the core impulse is to consider 1:n as an extension of 1:1. I think that is backwards. 1:1 is an extended version of 1:n with a specific restriction n=1. Often this restriction is critically important to the app. When you need 1:1 you should use it. If you don't know, use the generic 1:n form.

P.s. weirdest clickbait headline ever.

Awesome update!

I have been using Phind almost daily for the past 3-4 weeks and the code it produces is pretty good and it is runnable on the first try more often compared to ChatGPT. Most of the time the answer is somewhat accurate and points me in the right direction.

ChatGPT (with GPT 4) has been slow af for me for the past 2+ months but I like studying a topic using ChatGPT, it is more verbose and explanatory when explaining things to you.

Maybe a purpose-built dedicated AI model is the right path. A model that does well in fixing bugs, writing feature code, and producing accurate code will not be a good tool for or conversational studying. And vice versa.

Also, I don't like that Phind is not handling the follow-up question that well when there are multiple kinds of questions within the same thread. ChatGPT is good at this.
The last part of the article raises an interesting question for me. What is the fastest, mostly fault tolerant implementation that could be created? So something that runs on say 10 different versions of the input, each of which has had up to 20 characters from the standard ASCII set inserted, replaced or removed randomly in the input file. So we'd be mostly looking for "data corruption" fault tolerance vs hardened against malicious input. How much can you still "out optimize" the compiler and JVM if you can't throw away all the safety?

Is the data batched, or do waterfalls occur? Is this a page that users will only visit once, or do they come regularly?

I totally agree - my point was simply that people sometimes focus on network bandwidth and forget that a huge JS file can be a problem even if it’s cached. What you’re talking about is the right way to do it - I try to get other developers to use older devices and network traffic shaping to get an idea for those subjective impressions, too, since it’s easy to be more forgiving when you’re focused on a dedicated testing session than, say, if you’re trying to use it while traveling and learning that the number of requests mattered more than the compressed size or that you need more robust error handling when one of the 97 requests fails.

Nobody asked me for a visa in 2015, and I was on a tourist one at the time so it can't even be some unified database thing they were using. A nice thing about Chinese banks is they can just hand you the card over the counter as well. That would never happen where I'm from in Europe-you have to wait for it to get mailed out to you.

Then again, I often find in China that workers/officials/whatever make up the rules on the spot, depending on what they know how to do, or what they consider too mafan. So maybe some will just 'feel' like you need a visa and others won't.

I get a similar thing in hotels where they can't be bothered to register my passport with the PSB, because they don't get many foreign visitors and so e.g. the computer to do it is not turned on. So they just don't do it.

I would guess you could get a hole in the wall to take cash most of the time, I just never see it done. One problem with cash in China is that the largest note has a pretty low value given how inflation is going and how costs are in tier one cities. Chinese people seem to think this is some kind of image management thing, where if they issue a larger denomination everyone will start freaking out about inflation. But I guess it's moot given how cash is losing favor anyway.

This is good advice that’s well intentioned, but (sorry), it can be interpreted as elitist, and in a way that’s detrimental to the reader.

I am no way suggesting that this is the intention or belief of the parent, but while I’ve got more miles on my odometer than I’d prefer, they’ve informed me that “reasonable” is better than “intelligent.”

My god how I’ve found that working with reasonable people is so much healthier, more productive and rewarding than working with the unreasonable* intelligent folks.

I didn't go through all literature, but it's possible that some other team focused on 1D, made one toy experiment with 2D just for giggles.

Agree -- 1:n is the safest approach if you don't know, but 1:1 has its place.

I think the core thing I've learned over time (in a startup) is that I rarely actually know for sure if there should be more of something, and 1:1 tends to create more "permanent" or "hard to reverse" changes to the way you design your system.
Do you have to enable the feature for this to be used on user machines? Is it persistent across restarts?

It's really annoying that seemingly simple things that have been around forever (this vs FUSE, NFS, freaking symbolic links) are gated behind "pro" features or advanced user workflows. It's very difficult to rely on them as an application developer shipping products to less determined/advanced users.

I say this with a hint of irony, knowing that I’m just some kid and you’re launching an awesome AI product right now, but I highly recommend looking back at mainstream ai from before it all started actually working, namely the classic book Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach. Just because they lacked the tools doesn’t mean there wasn’t serious, detailed thought put into what we should do in the technological situation we now find ourselves in. For that reason, this is (AFAIK) the main textbook taught in US grad schools for AI survey courses. Frames would be part of chapter 10, I’m guessing.

My landlord used to make me pay my rent in cash, and we have to pay three months at a time. So I would withdraw 18,000 RMB from an ATM to take to my landlord. Thankfully, there are a couple of ATMs in Beijing that let you withdraw up to 10,000 RMB at a time, because when I had to use a normal one, everyone behind me in line was pretty angry. Then I would put it into my man purse, which was really fashionable in the 00s, because cash was king and you needed a lot of 100 RMB bills to buy things.

Some interesting ideas, especially about forgotten processes becoming magic.

I will say though that we'll have to wait and see how AI plays out. There's been lots of new shiny innovative tools before that were going to "change everything" but there are always drawbacks to every tool and I think the biggest drawback to AI is that it looks like a way to skip a process but it really isn't.
