That's the link analytics case I mentioned.
I find those type of blatant anti consumerism and anti competitive so frustrating.

From my understanding, the spirit of those type of industry consortium/forum is to foster industry wide collaboration and innovation while style protecting the IP and patent of the originating companies.

But as usual, even when the companies are well served, the consumer don't have a say on those decisions...

I wish the FTC would investigate what are the economical impact of those type of decision on the consumer and the market in general.

I'm not really pointing the finger at anyone. Capitalism is both a political and economic system that needs government to exist and, among other things, enforce property rights and create the conditions for a free market. And capitalist theory has to resolve the problem of governments needing to do things but with the fundamental belief that if they do them themselves it will produce worse outcomes than if private enterprise did them.

So a capitalist government says, "Okay since I know what I need done I will go out into the market and contract someone." This is the RFP process, bidding for government contracts, and public-private partnerships. Obviously individual instances will work out better or worse but if you trust the process you should want the government to outsource the work.

We are a medium sized company with around 100 dedicated people, working on software (and a bit of hardware) for all sorts of railway applications. The team you would be joining is working on infrastructure measurement, think lidar data for object detection or stereo imaging for accurate positioning. The full job ad can be found here: [0]. The job will feature a nice combination of software development and hands-on work with the associated hardware. You certainly should be prepared to go out and work with our products in action on the machines produced by our mother company [1].

I'm leading this team, so if you are interested, reach out to me at arno.mayrhofer@[2] (applicants only, all others will be blocked)

This sounds a lot like some kind of government procurement process, which don't have a reputation for producing particularly good IT systems.
Ask HN: No deep understanding of any particular prog. language?
I’ve been working in the industry (mainly backend and cloud development) for around 15 years. I’ve used a bunch of programming languages and corresponding frameworks, libraries and runtimes, and I have realized I’m not really fluent in any particular one. I don’t face problems with this though and I’m usually productive with a new environment in around 1 month (unless I had to switch to something like Haskell, Lisp or Clojure… these languages are different enough from the ones I have worked with that it would take me several months to get up to speed).

In my previous job I was using Golang. Now we’re using Java, no big deal tbh. 5 years ago I was using Python. I think nowadays it’s very easy to know if the code you write is idiomatic (e.g., use google/chatgpt/github to validate your own code) and, above all, what matters most is usually how you design systems (e.g., how you split a big feature into chunks, modularity, etc.)
Do those brackets and hangers make up for the particle and pressboard my stairs are made out of?

Seriously, they could have come out of a flatpak. I assumed cost cutting, because the risers are a different board than the tread.
Maybe someone here will know of a website that describes each step of the jpeg xl format in detail? Unlike for traditional jpeg, I have found it hard to find a document providing clear instructions on the relevant steps, which is a shame as there are clearly tons of interesting innovations that have been compiled together to make this happen, and I'm sure the individual components are useful in their own right!
Sending SMS messages to users/customers
> people reading the news want two things: they want the truth, and they want it now.

I profoundly disagree. People want two other, completely different things:

1. People want to be given information to confirm their own biases and preconceived notions

2. People want to be able to not have to actually do anything or change anything because of any new information.
It's a subject that I am very interested in and is relatively safe to express opinions about.
Surely it's "vias ferrata".

I'm going through insulation woes with my 1870 house right now, and people drastically overestimate how their uninsulated walls are the issue. Your walls are most likely at least something like R-9 if not more depending on the old house you have.

The actual issues, in order of importance, are:

1. Air sealing the house. So yes, replacing and repairing windows. Not because double pane is so much better, but because your windows and doors are leaking unconditioned air into the house.

2. Roof insulation

3. Basement/crawl space insulation. Yes, this is more important than walls

4. Now you think about the walls. As you said, depending on the climate, from outside in may be safer (which can also be true for roof and basement depending on materials)
Good point. Still think granularity could have been embedded in the naming scheme. It would be cool if you could become familiar with the some of the first words in your ?state?, and some second words in your ?city?.

This is all fascinating, I'm sure, but frankly, I'm getting weary of tech drama viz. reality TV masquerading as reality.

Rocket Man and Orange Man have more in common than I _ever_ would have imagined if you'd asked me five years ago.

Have fun y'all. I'm resisting the clickbait and going back to building things and trying to get a stable paycheck.

This is a valid use case, my company does this, but I would never outsource it when a link expander isn't difficult to build exactly to the spec you want/need.
I just recently moved my personal homepage to XML + XSLT. Not a pro at it at all though. I did enjoy the process, I like the idea of building the website out of data + templates, but that's not unique to XSLT.

Besides some papercuts / browser bugs like "refreshing the page desyncs the inspector", the main issue I find with it is I don't see how I can modify things dynamically?

By the time JS runs, it's on the resulting HTML DOM, not the XML source, so I can't add elements dynamically respecting the XSLT stylesheet?

Also, XML must be well-formed and have a single root, I can't stream it out on the server piecewise?

With those 2 limitations, I don't see any advantages over any other server-side templating language, it just duplicates work that could happen once in a SSG or at least cached in a CDN, onto every client computer.
Hey did you read to the bottom of the article. It shows that that was just a temporary solution, the real invalid code is

func (t operation) IsValid() bool {
_, ok := strOperationMap[s]
return ok
}

Tbh it has been updated to us an array instead for string indexing.

> For normal construction tasks, I don't care one bit about this one bit.

The only thing about it that I care about is the sheer amount of time wasted as a kid standing around the lumber yard as my dad rummaged through the entire bin grumbling about how shit wood was these days, full of knots, not a straight board in sight, etc.

Well, yeah, dad, you (literally, he was a logger) cut down all the good shit!
I'm interested in understanding how the ACM is handling the transition to Open Access, particularly given that they offer a lifetime add-on to their life membership option. How are they addressing potential pushback from individuals who have already paid a significant amount to access the Digital Library? Are they considering making a portion of the Digital Library exclusive to paid subscribers even after the transition to Open Access?
that's where they started...
Given there have is a thriving open source AI scene, not sure how it would stand.
I'm working on a "decentralized" app that allows posting messages.
The posts are stored in the blockchain and not censurable to some extent.
Posting a message requires a transaction which implies fees but this would also prevent spam.

I don't necessarily agree with the wording of the title (it reads like "socialism is when the government does stuff"), but I definitely agree with the sentiment of calling out hypocrisy.
You're correct. But that's also the point at which people generally realize the plastic has cracked or bent and is leaking air, etc. etc.
Thanks for the suggestion, oxipng is indeed a better choice. Next time I will add it to the plots!
Definitely! When I say it's the point of flexbox and grid, I mean that they remove the need for the dev to do the manual width and bounds calculations (much like being able to just say how items should be aligned in both axes removes the need to do margin or positioning shenanigans). But it was all very possible with basic flow layout

You don't even need to call him to the stand, it's not some gotcha, he writes it all over the complaint itself. "AGI poses a grave threat to humanity — perhaps the greatest existential threat we face today." I highly doubt a court is going to opine about open vs closed being safer, though. The founding agreement is pretty clear that the intention was to make it open for the purpose of safety. Courts rule on if a contract was breached, not whether breaching it was a philosophy good thing.
Completely true. And most of the time, I enjoy writing go. But the enums are weak. However, if the Go team wants to tackle an important addition to the language, it should be non-nillable pointers. No need for Option sum types, just a type annotation that says it cannot be nil (but can be assigned a nil type if you've tested it for not being nil). I've thought about building a linter (like the Uber one), but the way the types in the syntax tree are resolved makes it too complex for a small project.

Which is most unfortunate... QR/Camera apps usually just show the domain anyways, and QR codes can easily fit large URL's. I imagine shorteners are used just so that they can choose a lower QR version and include a pretty logo in the middle.

> I don't think you understand how minimalist Golang is... the std lib only has room for anything you would ever need for a web service including a full web server, builtins like hashmaps, a bunch of things for concurrent programming like channels, go routines, etc.

I can't tell if this is sarcasm.

If it isn't, I don't see how what you've mentioned is minimalistic or how adding an option type would be against Go's identity.

Just one user's opinion. I'd just use the web site for a one-off event. But if I had to install something for some reason, I probably wouldn't care what technology it was made with and would only care if there was a functionality or performance difference. Honestly, nobody but web developers cares about PWAs. If you put a gun to my head and made me choose between Native and PWA, I guess I'd choose a native app that looks and feels like a native app, performs like a native app, uses native controls and UX idioms, and has the security guarantees of a native app. I honestly don't think users's really care about this PWA vs. Native App war that web developers insist on making a big deal over.

Ada has excellent enumeration types, and subtypes, and compile-time checking of case statement coverage for enum values, and an optional representation mechanism to control the binary value for each (symbolic) enum value. I'm not aware of any other language with that kind of enum type system.

See e.g. https://adaic.org/resources/add_content/docs/craft/html/ch05...
Thanks for this detailed computation. I think the increase from 2.5x better (current US electric) to 35x better (clean electric) illustrates the value of providing daytime charging infrastructure that utilizes solar.

Unfortunately also many of the scientific Latin names have been given rather carelessly.

Linnaeus is one of the worst offenders. He has taken most of his names from classic Latin and Greek authors, like Pliny the Elder and Aristotle, but especially for the Greek names it appears that he has not actually read the original ancient books, or at least he has read them very superficially.

The result is that a very large number of names of animals and plants given by Linnaeus have been applied to very different species than those for which they had been used traditionally.

The genus of harvestmen Phalangium, which is the subject of this research is one of the animals misnamed by Linnaeus.

Aristotle has used 2 words for naming spiders, one for the spiders that make webs ("arachnee") and the other was "phalangion". The description of the latter corresponds to a wolf spider (which is now named "Lycosa", scientifically).

Instead of using "Phalangium" for wolf spiders, Linnaeus has wrongly applied it to harvestmen. There are no closer similarities between spiders and harvestmen than between spiders and any other arachnids, except that both spiders and harvestmen have relatively long legs for their bodies.

When looking at harvestmen it is very easy to see that they are not spiders, because their abdomen is not separated from the thorax and they do not have the poisonous "fangs" characteristic for spiders.

The ancestors of spiders and harvestmen were already separated during Silurian, at a time when the ancestors of humans and fish were not yet separated.
This is a poor analogy, a better one would be nuclear physics. An expert in nuclear physics can develop positively impactful energy generation methods or very damaging nuclear weapons.

It's not because of arcane secrets that so few nations have nuclear weapons, all you need is a budget, time and brilliant physicists and engineers. The reason we don't have more is largely down to surveillance, economics, challenge of reliable payload delivery, security assurances, agreements and various logistical challenges.

Most countries are open and transparent about their nuclear efforts due to the diplomatic advantages. There are also methods to trace and detect secret nuclear tests and critical supply chains can be monitored. Countries who violate these norms can face anything from heavy economic sanctions and isolation to sabotage of research efforts. On the technical side, having safe and reliable launch capacity is arguably as much if not more of a challenge than the bomb itself. Logistical issues include mass manufacture (merely having capacity only paints a target on your back with no real gains) and safe storage. There are a great many reasons why it is simply not worth going forward with nuclear weapons. This calculus changes however, if a country has cause for fear for their continued existence, as is presently the case for some Eastern European countries.
