Maybe not so much unpopular as outside the (lucrative) bubble. [1]

The economic goal of the film/television industry is to make a thing that its audience will watch. Then this result is celebrated (multiple times) until the final event, a sort of Super Bowl where statuettes are thrown for touchdowns.

It's a huge global business, something on the order of $130 b USD. [2]

I'm the maintainer of HTTP Toolkit.

In general the source for core components that can't really be used for anything else is AGPL, but all the generally reusable libraries are Apache 2 or similar. The goal is to share as much as possible, and let everybody access the source for everything, and fork for their own use or submit modifications or whatever, but without the risk that a proprietary product runs off with the core product in a different direction. Seems to be working reasonably so far!

Regarding Docker, you might also be interested in https://github.com/httptoolkit/docker-socks-tunnel (1MB Docker container that runs a socks proxy, for tunnelling traffic between networks) and this detailed breakdown of how the whole Docker interception setup works under the hood: https://httptoolkit.com/docs/guides/docker/#the-technical-de...
Not explicitly. But since they gave it an AGPL licence, you can request the updated source from them, so the intention was definitely there. (Then again, as owners they can relicense any time they want, so it's not really binding for them)

They also invited to contribute to that repo... but none of the serious PRs got ever merged as far as I can tell. Basically, they were never serious about doing this.

Back in the days when the League of Nations was deciding all this, there was a road sign in the German Empire consisting of a red circle around a white background with a black arrow pointing straight ahead (and no slash). This did not mean it's forbidden to go straight ahead, it meant it's _mandatory_ to go straight ahead - the thing that later on was changed to the white-on-blue arrow. (examples: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bildtafel_der_Verkehrszeichen_... but the sign must be older than that).

If you want to be picky, the "you must" signs generally had a narrower red ring than the "you must not" ones, but even that rule is not always adhered to on the linked page.
Well, not really. This sign is an indication that you will not encounter oncoming traffic.

The other end of the road will see a "No Entry" sign (red disc with a white horizontal bar) and any side street will get a "mandatory direction" sign (a blue disc with a with circle and a white arrow) that shows which direction is mandatory or a "no turning" sign showing which direction is prohibited. The square blue sign with an arrow is an indication that someone else has mandatory or prohibition signs.

For example here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/PwAYqUffz6uPLVZW6 you can see a "no right turn", a "one-way traffic" sign, and a "no entry" sign (all saying "except bikes"). The "one-way traffic" is definitely informative, it would be a disc otherwise.

Now, I'm used to France, Belgium and the UK but looking at this chart: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_European_road_si...

it seems like it's less universal than I thought. Using just a rectangle with an arrow when coming from a side street rather than a circle makes no sense to me unless there are also no entry/no right turn/mandatory left turn signs as well.
I switched from Paper to Fabric +/- 3 years ago. It allows me to create better server-side mods than what I was able to make with the Bukkit/Spigot/Paper API.

Not that that API isn't impressive. I was also surprised to learn MCC uses it.
I don't believe that's true.

If the company earns £100k/yr, what matters is what you, the individual, actually end up with.

Corporation tax will take you down to ~£80ish but you still need to draw the money out of the company.

Most people will take a small amount as a salary through PAYE to use up their tax free allowances and get the NI stamp. The rest is then paid as dividends.

Your take home pay on £100k would be roughly £67k
SQL indexing is definitely something I need to learn more about.

At the same time, it feels a bit like it's become such a standardised fallback approach that people will sometimes throw indexes at a problem instead of applying some thought to the query.

Admittedly, I'm basing this on a few personal anecdotes. For example, a long time ago an acquaintance posted a question on Facebook about speeding up a query in a database of astronomy data, where they were filtering based on a triangle-inequality style formula a^2 + b^2 < c^2. The first five comments said they would just index the a, b and c columns, which would probably work but the author didn't have the right permissions on the DB and only needed to run the query once anyway. I didn't know much SQL at the time but suggested trying a quick initial filtering of the form a + b > c on the data before calculating the formula with squares. This apparently sped it up sufficiently for their purpose.
Bio-esentialism and gender essentialism is not about "essential differences" as in "distinct and considerable", but about the idea of your biological gender being solely responsible for determining a persons psychological and social attributes.

It's a simplistic point of view that does not consider the sociological aspects of gender contributing to gendered outcomes.
I think this information might be incorrect. I upgraded to 17.4 on an iPhone purchased in Canada, with an Apple account based in Canada but with a EU SIM card and being physically located in the EU and didn't get the "pick a browser" dialog when opening Safari. I think it might not be SIM based after all. The only possible thing I could think of is that I have an activated but turned off eSIM from Canada on the phone as well. The physical SIM is EU, though (and is what is turned on and connected to the towers).

What I find promising about LISP is the ability to do term rewriting and macros.

But people write lisps in imperative style rather than definitions of desired behaviour declaratively. I don't think we've sufficiently solved how to define desired behaviour to a computer.

Term rewriting behaviours. What are your thoughts?

I started trying to implement term rewriting into my LISP parser, which is the idea that we can match on trees and transform them, subsume branches or move branches around arbitrarily. You kind of want the matching function and transformation function to be imperative or sometimes like a query.

So use ASTs for behaviour and relationships and imperative LISP macros for transformations and rewriting.

The reason I say this is because I dream of a compositional language where I can create a cell in a spreadsheet and say that it should have these behaviours

import load-balancing
import batching
import backoff
import backpressure
import retries
import durable-execution
import memory-contiguity
import memory-alignment

Truly futuristic programming where we we program behaviours.

I am asked to define the terms that these behaviours require.

I understand that people dislike Netflix (price hike, account sharing, political content) and want to draw conclusions based on this, but one should remember that these awards are still pay-to-play.

I think the slash was added in some cases because there's an old German sign with a black arrow on a white background with a red ring, that means _you must go this way_ instead of _you must not go this way_ as we'd read it today. So the slash on all such signs (no left turn etc.) is to make it doubly clear this is a prohibition not an instruction.

Fun fact: the German Empire had an additional convention that if the symbol (e.g. a motor car) was shown in outline instead of filled in, then the prohibition only applied on Sundays.

EDIT: looking at https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Diagrams_of_hi..., the 1927 German sign for "parking _allowed_" was a black P on a white background with a red circle; the prohibition sign contained the text "Parken verboten" (parking forbidden). So I can see why the German delegate might have objected to making the new "no parking" sign their old "yes you can park here" sign!

What I'm saying is that there are probably many, many authors who realise that and wouldn't risk contributing (therefore having a chilling effect). Kinda makes the project "open source-ish". All the legal infrastructure, none of the community norms.
That's an interesting example, as white arrow/arrows on blue in circle also exists, which limits (or otherwise indicates) the directions you can continue.

The one-way traffic sign does fit in, but most commonly you see it in situations where it's actually just informational, like the entrance of a road. In this case it doesn't limit you in any way, it's not like you have to enter that road. You will see a no entry sign on the other side of the intersection anyway, which does limit you. But it does inform you that you shouldn't expect oncoming traffic.

The horizontal one-way road sign is less common, and is often used in T-junctions. There it arguably does double duty.
Given Peter Norvig's work on Lisp and Python, pity that after 24 years, his "Python for Lisp Programmers" essay from 2000 is still mostly true.

Python might have overtaken Lisp's role in AI, but still needs some catching up in tooling.

"The two main drawbacks of Python from my point of view are (1) there is very little compile-time error analysis and type declaration, even less than Lisp, and (2) execution time is much slower than Lisp, often by a factor of 10 (sometimes by 100 and sometimes by 1). Qualitatively, Python feels about the same speed as interpreted Lisp, but very noticably slower than compiled Lisp. For this reason I wouldn't recommend Python for applications that are (or are likely to become over time) compute intensive (unless you are willing to move the speed bottlenecks into C). But my purpose is oriented towards pedagogy, not production, so this is less of an issue. "

> The entire point was to throw away entirely our reliance on frequency and association -- this is ancient superstition.

You make it sound like this was some important trend in the past, that got derailed by the evil statisticians (spoiler: there never was such a trend that was big enough to have momentum).

Your rant against statistics is all nice and dandy, but when you have to translate that website from a foreign language into English automatically, when you ask ChatGPT to generate you some code for a project you work on, or when you are glad that Google Maps predicted your arrival time at the office correctly, you rely on the statistics you vilify in essential ways. You basically are a customer of statistics every day (unless you live under a rock, which I don't think you do).

Statistics is good because it works, and it works well in 90% cases which is enough. What you advocate for so zealously (whatever such a causally validated theory would be) currently doesn't.
You can argue about the relative beauty and polish of the tech, but just as Git won against more polished alternatives, so too will eBPF displace others because of its platform reach.

eBPF combines amazing tech, with a platform reach that is impossible for dTrace to provide. It's this unique combination that will capture the mindshare necessary to relegate others to the sidelines.

You don't coordinate this stuff. If you coordinate it people know where to set up their parabolic microphones.

You just go off into the woods randomly during lunch, or some other time that is unlikely to be anticipated.

Coordinating it would just destroy the security.

Also, isn't it better to be overheard by somebody with a parabolic microphone than to have everything collated and stuffed into an LLM without anybody having to do anything?
Much of Queensland's population lives on the coast, so those who can tolerate the sun could at least seek some reprieve in the ocean.

As long as cold water is running, people can also use tap water to cool themselves down, though it will turn into a swampy mess when none of it evaporates. Perhaps public shaded pools with a cool water source will become critical public infrastructure to help people survive heat waves if the electricity goes out.

If it's above 32 degrees and 100% humidity at all hours though, it would be pretty miserable as you wouldn't have anywhere to sleep (unless you have a car with A/C, and masses running their cars overnight will just contribute that much more to the climate change)

A lot of people will say the solution is to design a better chat bot. I think a better solution would be to stop using AI and even better, take down the entire system of large corporations.

Because if you think about it, large corporations are the machine that transform human beings into resources: the large corporation by its very nature must disregard human decency in order to function. You can see this even excluding the effects and use of AI: they are the physical embodiment of capitalism without anything else due to their size.

We might think about solving the immediate problem of Chatbots, but they only exist because of big tech and thus it is the environment that is the problem, not just the result.

Another option is Exceptions. The function either does what it's supposed to, or freaks out.

You can remove the null checks and the software will raise a null pointer exception. In the first example, could raise a NotLoggedInException.

It's still a maybe function, but you have a mechanism for expressing the why-notness of the function run, as opposed to returning a generic null.

As an aside, I prefer the "Unless" model of thinking vs the "Maybe" model of thinking. It's biased towards success. It presumes that the function is most likely to do something unless a precheck fails. filterBestFriendsUnless vs maybeFilterBestFriends. getUserUnless vs maybeGetUser. If we go this far down the rabbit hole, we can assume there's always an "unless". Programs run out of memory, stacks have limited depth. There are maybe conditions for which we can not account.

An alternative I've used or seen used in Java is to put @Nullable on the function. The caller knows the result could be null, and must check for it. Linters/Static analysis can verify when you haven't checked it as well.

There's an urge to return Optional<Object> but now you must check Optional.isPresent AND object != null.
