It's ever discussed in https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/3888 for comparing object_store in Apache Arrow to the APIs provided by Apache OpenDAL.

Briefly, Apache OpenDAL is a library providing FS-like APIs over multiple storage backends, including S3 and many other cloud storage.

A few database systems, such as GreptimeDB and Databend, use OpenDAL as a better S3 SDK to access data on cloud storage.

Other solutions exist to manage filesystem-like interfaces over S3, including Alluxio and JuiceFS. Unlike Apache OpenDAL, Alluxio and JuiceFS need to be deployed standalone and have a dedicated internal metadata service.

I assumed the regulatory body define what kinds of documentation needs to recorded, not Boing. And noncompliance (including not being able to produce that documentation on request) with that might be a (criminal) offense.
Seems to be consistent. The NTSB report already corroborated most of this [1]. What they are trying to locate from my understanding is a record of the door being removed. Which the whistleblower already explained is a process that does not create an entry in the log:

> A removal should be written in either case for QA to verify install, but as it turns out, someone (exactly who will be a fun question for investigators) decides that the door only needs to be opened, and no formal Removal is generated in CMES (the reason for which is unclear, and a major process failure). Therefore, in the official build records of the airplane, a pressure seal that cannot be accessed without opening the door (and thereby removing retaining bolts) is documented as being replaced, but the door is never officially opened and thus no QA inspection is required.

Yeah a lot of the side effects you listed sound a bit like they could be within normal expectations for teenagers, or just slightly heightened. Reminds me of an SSRI that happened to also massively reduce caffeine metabolisation without anyone noticing, and loads of the known side effects were really just effects of caffeine overdose – insomnia, jitters, headaches, etc.

Show HN: Chainflow – API call workflows in TypeScript
Hello HN!

I am a junior Software Engineer venturing into Open Source for the first time. Chainflow is a library inspired by some pain points I experienced in my dev work. When building features for an app, I often encounter situations where I need to set up test data to demonstrate those features to users and check if implementations are working properly. Sometimes, I might have to manually click and type to get past unimportant stages of the app when moving between things I want to test. I wanted to automate these tasks that were irrelevant to the main features I was working on, but I didn't want to do it with SQL/DB scripts. I wanted to use the app's actual service endpoints to ensure important side effects are triggered, and I didn't brute force my way through the app via DB manipulation which can risk missing out on bugs or introducing unusual data into the app.

When searching for solutions, I found Postman Flows (https://learning.postman.com/docs/postman-flows/gs/flows-ove...) which I thought was a pretty solid tool. However, I wanted more control to validate and process data moving in between endpoint calls, plus I wanted something I could easily run from the CLI without needing to open and configure a full GUI application.

Hence, I wrote Chainflow, which is functionally similar to Postman Flows; it helps create and organize sets of API endpoint calls in a series (what I refer to as "API call workflows" or "chainflows" in the library) while helping data flow between the inputs and outputs of different endpoints, except that things are done in code so us engineers have more freedom when working with it. I try to keep Chainflow as ergonomic as developer tools should be, so I focus on composability where common building blocks (e.g., login APIs) can be reused between endpoints and more complex processes can be flexibly built up from simpler ones.

I'm still writing my own scripts with Chainflow, so I'm learning and making adjustments as I go. I'm incredibly excited by this first project of mine, so if you decide to try Chainflow out, I would love to hear what you like about it, what doesn't make sense, or what could be better.

I've written guides on https://edwinlzs.github.io/chainflow-docs/ to help anyone trying Chainflow out. I appreciate you reading this post, and I hope to hear any thoughts and advice you may have!
On the contrary, distilled water is not conductive enough. You do need some ions in it. Inexpensive chemicals like sodium hydroxide/ bicarbonate also prevent limescale, avoid producing chlorine, etc...but then you end up with salty/alkaline brine. Which might be the true issue here, how to dispose of industrial quantities of that.
Instead of bailing them out while keeping it private do the right thing: public money bailed them out, so it's a public company now, nationalise, save the innocents from harm, and sell its parts to recoup the bailout after it's been properly managed through the crisis.

Leaving it to private investors to ride on the public saving a company is just another slap on the face. Yes, I know that the bailouts from 2008 have recouped the public money invested but it's a moral hazard to allow private investors to use this mechanism. Over time private investors will just find loopholes on how to leverage public bailouts for their own gain, they have a massive incentive for gaming it.
Thank you!

I hadn’t, but it would be very easy to add.
I can only speak for me, but I come here for the hacker news part, not the ycombinator part.
Not indignity but inconvenience. It would be like a boss lying to a software engineer about the requirements as they are scared it will cost too much then the wrong thing is built.
As a half-engineer myself, I have to say this: people need to be reminded that it was engineers that were at the highest levels, CEO and down, behind Dieselgate and, yes, the issues at Boeing as well. Engineers are not per-se better at business ethics or corporate governance. Greed is universal.
Which one is the dumb one? Because that's probably the one I'm doing.

Hi-Viz is only useful if the driver(s) are actually looking and paying attention. There's plenty of examples of drivers hitting static objects that are festooned with hi-viz colouring and reflectives.

Bicycle helmet safety standards are generally for speeds up to 12mph and/or a static drop from 2m onto a hard surface. They are specifically not designed to withstand the forces/accelerations involved in a multi-vehicle collision.

(One of my bug-bears is when people point to a destroyed bicycle helmet and claim that it saved their life. Helmets are designed to compress and are particularly weak when subjected to tensile/shear forces. If a helmet splits in two, then it most likely wasn't being effective)
Students revive ancient cooling technology for modern application
I feel sad about this. Amish communities seemed like a stronghold of never-changing, perfectly off-grid and durably viable (also fairly humane) way of life with clear values which wouldn't fluctuate chaotically as they do in modern cities, making a remarkably sustainable society.

The first bell rang when they started using modern kitchen appliances although powered with compressed air instead of electricity.

Now they embrace electricity and electronics.

Even from the points of so few, it still seems reasonable to extrapolate and predict Amish communities will turn very different in a century or so. Perhaps they will start using smartphones the day everyone else will forget about these in favour of AR/VR goggles.
Product engineer vs. software engineer: How are they different? – PostHog
What's a good alternative that is future proof from this BS?
Ground movements and runway clearances are still very manual processes unfortunately, and mistakes happen especially in high task-load situations or poor visibility or flight number collisions etc. The safe part about being in the airplane is actually being in the air, lol - once you push back you are at fairly elevated statistical risk until you’ve got some altitude. Takeoff/landing are high risk and there’s a lot of people and a lot of chances for mistakes on the tarmac.

There are statistically an enormous number of ground movements carried out safely but boy does the potential body count get big with runway incursion scenarios. Two 757s colliding is a lot of people, and in high-energy scenarios at least one of the aircraft isn’t walking away. You can be doing nothing wrong and someone just landings on your taxiway etc. The close calls are terrifying.

If an internet connected device is doing some "hacking", do never presume its owner is aware of that or ever worse, the actual culprit.

This is "cyber security" 101.

The actual "hacker" may be on the other side of the world going thru several anonymous internet links (or in a hostile country) and just did program some time-triggered "hacking" commands, namely there is no in-bound connection when the "hacking" is performed.
Either of those options should work for you. Code blocks are almost always rendered with monospace fonts and manually setting a normal block of text to a monospaced font will do what you want as well.

The only other issue I can see is if your diagram is too large it might start wrapping which will break the “image” you are going for.

EDIT: See my sibling comment for examples of how to do this.
Maybe reflect on the irony presented by the two halves of your comment?

Yeah, why can't you also set the phone to vibrate or emit some sound every X minutes when you missed a call? There are times I don't check the phone for days, because it just sits on the table telling me nothing.
tl;dr

Chainflow is a library to create and organize sets of API endpoint calls while helping data flow between the inputs and outputs of different endpoints.

Use it to automate setting up your test data or to test your backend endpoints.
This is just typical doomer stupidity.

Of course, no one goes around trying to stomp on every ant hill they can because ants aren't good at math.

Not to mention, so much competition in humans is related to sexual competition. I suspect many doomers have no sex life and much of these ideas are projecting sexual frustrations on to AGI and AI.

The computer/software is not going to build a harem and try to eliminate competitors to the harem. Assuming software possessing being and consciousness isn't complete nonsense, even assuming the software is not an asexual being, humans and software are not going to be competing for the same sexual patterns lol.

This whole line of thought is just ridiculous.
I'd imagine the fear is they get crushed, replaced with the cheapest option available located in a place with even less rights. And everyone moves on with the narrative and another move towards labor rights dies with a whimper
I’d disagree on that. While they’re not overly exciting like a little MX-5, my new base model hybrid Corolla has plenty of pickup and go for whatever I need, and coming from a truck, I find it “fun” to drive. And I love driving my Tacoma off-road! I think Toyota are right to make a more appliance-y car, which is still super fun to drive, but doesn’t lose what’s most important, cost and reliability.

Agree, nobody should base their opinions on a single source of news.

As someone who stopped taking certain news outlets on my side of the political spectrum serious after running into Gell-Mann once to often, I have to say, with decent backgroind in the topic we discuss here, aerospace and quality and such, this particular LWTN segment got it right. Heck, some of it was even than what I heard in my life from co-workers in the industry. I wouldn't go as far as doing a reverse Gell-Mann on LWTN based on this, but overall their reporting is, factually, correct. And they don't even try to hide their bias, nor donthey use to spin a story, which is refreshing if you ask me.
A.I. Joe: The Dangers of Artificial Intelligence and the Military
A few days ago ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39583437 ) I ran across technobabble from ~2'400 years ago.

http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%... et.seq.

> Now for divine begettings there is a period comprehended by a perfect number, and for mortal by the first in which augmentations dominating and dominated when they have attained to three distances and four limits of the assimilating and the dissimilating, the waxing and the waning, render all things conversable and commensurable with one another, whereof a basal four-thirds wedded to the pempad yields two harmonies at the third augmentation, the one the product of equal factors taken one hundred times, the other of equal length one way but oblong,—one dimension of a hundred numbers determined by the rational diameters of the pempad lacking one in each case, or of the irrational lacking two; the other dimension of a hundred cubes of the triad. And this entire geometrical number is determinative of this thing, of better and inferior births.

It's generated a lot of commentary over the years: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plato%27s_number

but Plato's Socrates even explicitly lampshaded the technobabble a few paras beforehand:

So I doubt it had ever been intended to denote: merely to connote.
There is no reason to bring labor into this discussion.

Your argumentation is a form of damage control. Just like modern
neo-Nazis either downplay, minimize, or try to justify atrocities
committed by the Nazi regime you try to downplay, minimize or justify
atrocities committed by the Israeli regime. The neo-Nazis say that the
number of victims of the Holocaust is grossly overstated. You will say
that there is no grounds for accusing Israel of genocide in Gaza. The
neo-Nazis say that ordinary Germans had no idea about the
concentration camps. You will say that ordinary Jewish Israelis do not
revel in Gaza's destruction. Neo-Nazis spreads the myth of the clean
Wehrmacht (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myth_of_the_clean_Wehrmacht),
just like you will spread the myth of the clean IDF. Neo-Nazis
downplay statements from leading Nazi leaders just like you downplay
statements from leading Israeli leaders. They say "Yeah, Hitler said
he wanted to exterminate Jews but he didn't mean it!" and you say
"Yeah, Gallant said Gaza should be starved but he didn't mean it!"

While Golan is a minister without a portfolio, she wouldn't be in her
position if she was not a popular politician or if her views were not
aligned with those of the rest of the government. And she certainly
has power to affect government policy. Although these ministers may be
"whacky" to you the very fact that they are ministers prove that they
aren't wacky to most Jewish Israelis. After all, they were elected.

Children are starving to death in Gaza and your country is on trial
for genocide. While you try to excuse these crimes and justify calls
for genocide (Amalek). Whine about anti-Semitism all you want, in my
eyes you are nothing but an Israeli neo-Nazi. You have learned nothing
from history and had you been German you would have justified the
Nazi crimes too.

Bicycle helmets are virtually useless when involved in a multi-vehicle collision (e.g. a cyclist and a car driver). They are typically tested IIRC for speeds of up to 12mph onto a static surface from a height of 2m or so. The forces involved when colliding with a motorised vehicle are orders of magnitude greater.

Effective defence would allow the
guilty to go free. (although “guilty” is a jury verdict so that is impossible but I presume you mean would be found guilty had more evidence prevailed). You can’t have an advocate that draws arbitrary lines at which they are not on your side advocating for you, what would those be?

Say someone says to their lawyer
they shot the person but really they are covering for their wife even to mthe lawyer. The lawyer then hears them say in court they didn’t shoot (the truth)
but the lawyer just knows they are saying something different now to what they said before. It could be that.

Browsertech NYC Meetup Recap
Why would currently anybody globally trust FAA? Clearly regulatory capture has happened, its not 1 or 2 isolated cases at this point.

Trust is something thats hard earned and easily lost, they already went through both so if FAA wants to come back they have some serious effort on their shoulders in upcoming decade at least.

And slapping Boeing and those responsible so hard that wall will give them another is mandatory first step since this theatre is played out for literally everybody in the world, everybody is watching.
And you are absolutely right. To some details, for anyone interested (from an EASA point of view, working in Europe I never had to bother directly with the FAA):

- regulators provide general rules to be followed

- companies define theirbway of complying with those rules, the Means-of-compliance, and relevant processes and tools

- regulators audit those, sign of on them and audit the final product, hardware, software and documentation (!) to make sure compabies have their shit in order

- deviations are documented and recorded on work order level, e.g. one has to remove a door plug even this isn't part of the work instructions; in this case, either some non-standard instructions exist to be pulled up or an ad-hoc obe is written, both have to signe off by quality before the work is done, then said work is duly documented on work order level and again signed off and checked by quality (this is the most common way to handle those individual non-conformities I came across in my career, there sure are others)

- the above has to be defined in a dedicated process description, which itself is subject to regulatory approval

- not following the above, even worse trying to mislead regulators and auditors about it, does amount to a criminal offense for the senior execs responsible / accountable, depending on circumstances (from what little I know, Boeing is extremely close to this, if line workers cheat there isbnothing obe can do besides firing them, at Boeing the issues are far more serious, deeper and far reaching than some individual worker cutting corners so, it seems).
They also can’t be held accountable for the decisions they make.

Humans who do terrible things are under threat by their fellow humans, in retribution for their behavior. Unless AIs know their own mortality and dread it as a human might, there just isn’t any way to make an AI responsible for the choices they make.

Until they achieve sentience, at least, they are disqualified from judging.
With every alternative, the prevailing issue is the fact that your data is as safe as the company your data is with. But I think this can be remedied by doubly external backups.
