Apple Watch? Depends on what you mean by that but they 100% could build a smartwatch, such as the open source $27 Pinetime watch:

> Elon has always been clear that he supports free speech within the law as the U.S. courts and constitution have defined it.

Yes, he tends to claim that.

In this case, however, he was found by a court to be abusing the legal system for the specific purpose of using the government to suppress speech that is legal in the United States, and sanctioned for that abuse.
Are you genuinely, in good faith, asking if societies can define rules?!

This is a real world example. Code that was proved decades ago and worked has started failing now as computers are able to handle in memory datasets that large.

Noscript is annoying for like a week until you get the sites that you use frequently and basically trust whitelisted.

Sure, it isn’t perfectly safe. If HN or my employer goes evil, they can rowhammer me I guess. I’d expect it to cause a big todo, though, so I’m not that worried about it.

I don’t really understand why people seem to think disabling JS is a big hassle. Is this motivated reasoning by web devs or something?

It is not a big problem, and the sort of “ambient shittiness” of the internet greatly improved by doing it. Most sites work fine, they’ll default to some (better) less dynamic state, maybe some ads won’t load. For those sites that don’t work, you can make an exception or leave. Personally I’m now mostly visiting sites by people who don’t enjoy over complicating things, and who think about fallbacks. It is great!

You are thinking of normalized ( bcnf if not 3nf) well architectures application storing structured data , unless the app is 100 million+ users or grew super fast 250TB size would be hard to get to .

Timeseries (like IoT you mentioned ) or binary blobs or logs or any other data in SQL storage that shouldn’t be really there can hit any size wouldn’t be all that interesting.

Can’t speak for OP, however managing data for few million user apps, what I have observed is most SQL stores hit single TB range and then start getting broken down into smaller dbs either coz now teams have grown want their own Micro-service or DB or infra wants easier to handle in variety of ways including Backup /recovery larger DBs are extremely difficult to get reasonable RTO/RPO numbers for.
Sure, you can hide all configuration behind some abstraction, but that doesn't really change the fact that the configuration is still there. The moment you need to do something even slightly different than out-of-the-box, you're hosed. Additionally - IAC can work as documentation. "What's running in (environment)?" is a question that can usually quickly be answered by looking at the IAC itself, whereas this solution, you'd have to go poking around in some console and pray to god you're in the right place.

Poor people don't use public transit because it has been dismantled to the point it's unusable. In fact, it has been demolished explicitly because poor people use it.
The Technical History of Kubernetes
Why do people do this? I skim the article. I go wait "Nitric sounds like Pulumi". A few googles later, I find this : https://nitric.io/docs/reference/pulumi

So, it's fast because it uses Pulumi... Does Pulumi no longer build on Terraform providers? (EDIT: looking, it seems like many Pulumi providers are still terraform wrappers...)

Either way, it feels like this is just a Pulumi feature.
Autopilot is just fancy cruise control. There have been lots of deaths on normal and fancy cruise control for all car brands.

I co-founded Java @ Apache, so my background is Java and DI was the first thing I was looking for when I started down the golang path. I tried out a bunch of different DI options for golang and settled on fx. fx is actually more than just DI, it is a whole framework for starting and stopping "services" as well.

I realized quickly it wasn't absolutely necessary to use it since most people just make a package in golang, in order to get the separation they need. But when I started using it more and more, I noticed that taking advantage of the DI features of fx, also ensured that I wrote code that had clear separation of concerns.

In golang, it is too easy to just cross package include `new` things you need right in the function, instead of passing it in as an argument. This of course, makes it much harder to write tests for since you can't mock what you need easily.

The binary I built was distributed across tens of thousands of servers in multiple data centers, and had to run perfectly on every release as it took a lot of time/effort to even do updates. This meant comprehensive testing before deployment, so I wanted to optimize my unit/integration tests as much as possible.

I'm not sure it would be necessary for just simple api endpoint microservices, but for a complicated application binary that needs perfect testing, I can't imagine writing golang code without it. The benefits far outweigh the negatives.
This doesn't seem right. The optimal direction for a call stack to grow is ISA dependent. I'd expect bump allocation to be likewise - either it doesn't matter at all, or the specific instructions available mean one is better.

I think what has happened here is the original post chose a specific representation for the start/current/end tuple and given that representation one direction was better, then the follow up post took that representation as foundational and noticed that some of the branches can be rolled together.

There's lots of representations available for start/current/end. It should always be possible to have arithmetic followed by a single branch, where you pick the state representation to make the test cheaper for a given direction on a given ISA.

That's why employers need to spend more time convincing potential candidates that the role they hire for is actually worth the trouble of going through this kind of coding interview test.

In the past I've encountered companies that would just throw a multi-hour coding test at you without even giving you any idea of the role they are hiring for. If it's not worth employer's time to get the candidate interested in a position, the position is not worth applying for.
> Southwest Airlines was a major contributor to this as the largest purchaser of 737s in the world, because you know, god forbid Southwest's pilots had to get certified to fly a new plane once every 50 years.

I would guess Southwest's goal is more of a staff flexibility thing: if all their pilots are certified to fly all their planes, scheduling could be much easier and more effective. I don't know anything about airline management or pilot certification, but my guess is pilots are typically certified to only fly one kind of aircraft at a time, and don't typically maintain multiple certifications.

However, as much efficiency that strategy may have gained them over the last several decades, it's not one that's reasonable to maintain anymore.
Slurs will get you banned here. No more of this please.

Let's say you have a personal portfolio website. Single index.html file. Written entirely in vanilla HTML/CSS/JS with zero dependencies whatsoever. Project "pages" are fullscreen slideshows of high-rez images (3200x2000) etc. So basically a handcrafted static site.

Would buying a virtual server and running any one of these mini servers to run your site make it more performant than throwing it on a regular host like Dreamhost?

Like, does the simplicity in the server itself offer ANY speed/performance/latency advantages for a site that is ultimately showcasing big imagery for a folio?
That's fine but that's not really a fault of terraform usually but the provider. Terraform itself is a wrapper around the cloud API's the providers use. For your comments regarding "state files getting funky" I have also never seen this as a problem with terraform itself, but rather people doing insanely stupid things with it. "terraform gets mad" seems like a constraint of whatever home-grown modules your staff SRE is using, not a feature/problem with terraform itself.
Legalization also opens crucial gateways to clinical research and market regulation. These effects can be better communicated and consumers have legal advocacy if they are harmed.
no worry.

maybe i'll explain why, it's like the finding a mate for marriage problem.
you dates enough ppl to have a taste of what you like, and then for the next one that comes along that is on par with the best you've seen, you take that.

i guess a 3x3 grid is not necessary, maybe when you click "another", push the old one up (or down) the stack but keep it around so I can always go back and pick the best one I liked so far after the sampling?

The year is 2024. Solar panels you installed from Alibaba begins to search for cell towers. Your local instance of LLM voice bot you built to keep you company is using a malicious npm package that suddenly communicates with the solar panels and starts sending packets to a Chinese server.
That could be the most annoying mobile site I can remember. The number of popups and re-layouts is ridiculous.
That's an option (and probably the default option), but it's also configurable to not do that.

Would you pay for a phone built for you?
Ever feel like your phone is loaded with features you never use? Imagine a phone you could customize to your exact needs. No more bloatware, just the features you want and the power you need.

This could mean choosing your preferred operating system, getting a monster battery for gaming, or prioritizing a top-notch camera for photography.

Would you be interested in a phone you could customize to your specific needs? What features would be most important to you in a customizable phone?
> But anyhow, this sort of project.. even if announced today

It has indeed been on and off since March 2021. This project could've been set up in no time, put a camera underwater, start the live stream, and set up the basic website. Building an AI will take way longer, with much more technical skills required, and much more money.
That's interesting (that you felt the disturbing images as arousing). I work at an ayahuasca center that works in a traditional lineage. One thing that often needs to be energetically cleaned from people is something we refer to as "lobo" ("wolf" in Spanish), or neino (Shipibo for river otter), both considered to be somewhat voracious animals. This is the spirit of unhealthy desires, often sexual in nature. It manifests in a variety of ways, often images of sea creatures. When it is most intense it appears as very bloody and gratuitous violence, bloody animal teeth etc.
How high up from the ground does it need to fall to become the property owners property? If a ring with a diamond breaks and the diamond his the ground, it doesn't automatically become the property owner's.

This sounds like the long way to say that increases supply lowers prices. It does address common criticisms of this approach, however. I feel like I'm missing something.
Breaking it down by time, men spend close to twice as much time on leisure computer use and gaming. Nowadays most people play a game once in a while, whether that's Farmville or Wordle, so time provides a much more useful measurement than simply "have you played a game".

You wouldn’t say less to worry about when you have to do full backup or show recovery from backup within a set recovery time .

This one data store is easier is a myth , it just offloads complexity from developer to infra teams who are now provisioning premium NVMe storage instead of cold object stores for binary data .

Binary data is not indexed or aggregated in a SQL store there is no value in doing this is one place expect dev experience at the cost of infra team experience.
> no dentist or hygienist will mention it to you because, well you know why.

Every single dentist I've been to has told me this method. Maybe it's a regional thing?
Sure, and I play around with SBCL sometimes since it's a rather nice REPL experience. It's even nicer to have a GUI though, like Smalltalk:s tend to have.

In work settings I've mainly used Factor for data exploration but I can see it fit neatly as a data transformer or combiner in a pipeline from one set of API:s or protocols to some other, since it's relatively easy to express such things and one can get a performant binary to deploy.

> Any example?

Literally any city with good fare compliance. If it's got enough people in it to have a transit network, it's got enough bike thieves in it to steal your bike.

> It's the difference between getting your bike stolen because of a random asshole and knowing your bike will be stolen by someone (also arguably an asshole).

That's just a product of population density. If you live in the middle of nowhere, with 5 people total in a 15-mile radius, it's highly unlikely someone's going to steal your bike.

If you leave your bike on Main Street, where thousands of people walk by every hour, all it takes is one in a thousand.

Mass urbanization, raising wages, labour saving construction methods and mass produced materials. I think dutch modern architecture does an alright blending blending constraints and modernism. Sagrada Familia is not a model for mass development. That said, I do love me some blood equity monumentality. It would be "neat" importing 10,000 cheap labourers, train them up on traditional masonery techiques and build some more monuments.
This ignores the ideas of inertia and lock-in. Once a company has monopoly or duopoly control, they can allow UX to deteriorate quite significantly because there are no viable alternatives that offer a meaningfully different experience.

To answer your question, they pocket it back by paying it to themselves. The artist is only formally an external ”artist”, but in this case he’s essentially one of their own. They curate him, let him on all the most promoted playlists and keep an appearance as if they’re paying it to some artist just like they do to anyone else. That artist gets all this firepower by agreeing to keep less of the cut while paying more of it back to Spotify in some other ways and it is all kept under the radar. That’s what I suppose.
You're continuing to miss the point. The license is an irrelevancy. If you can have your license suspended for <stupid reason> you can also be banned from public transport for <the same stupid reason>.

Banning people from using transportation that they probably need for work is dumb, bad policy, and bad economics. It tells you nothing about the merits of the kind of transport from which they're being banned.
Wikipedia documents some: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_Autopilot#Fatal_crashes

This site claims 42: https://www.tesladeaths.com/

They can be difficult to classify. I don't have a link handy, but I've seen reports that FSD/Autopilot disengages moments before an inevitable accident, allowing Tesla to claim that the systems were not engaged and imply they were not at fault. I haven't seen an investigation into whether this is true and, if so, whether the system was designed for the purpose of misleading claims.
So in summary they had: (1) no accurate inventory of what should be running or what was actually running (2) fundamental reliability issues with their cluster configuration not the least of which was a failure to implement basic self-integrity checks on services or clusters to ensure they were actually running and in a valid state (3) a wholly unimplemented mechanism for mapping high availability clusters across physical infrastructure (4) no network layer automation to ensure the accurate provisioning and segmentation of services and access to service data (5) unknown internal parties randomly accessing and altering cluster member configuration.

Yes, this describes a management problem. Sounds like shoot the messenger would be an easy de-facto choice for middle management, given how many years and spent dollars creating that situation must have taken...

For rapid use next time you can run lsof with various arguments to obtain a list of listening services on UDP and TCP ports. Cluster health and service status check wise, I have had good experience with https://clusterlabs.org/pacemaker/ + https://github.com/corosync/corosync
No politician is ever going to do that, not with that reasoning, not so much it would actually matter. Way too many people's wealth would be burned to the ground. We talk avout tens of percents of every populatiin in literally every country.

When you build an API, please start with the OpenAPI specification, before you write any code for your API.
It can be iterative, but for every part, just start with the OpenAPI, and think about what you want from the API, what do you want to send, and what to receive.

It is like the TDD approach, design before build.

Writing or generating tests after you build the code, is the same as this.
It is guessing what it should do.
The OpenAPI specification, and the tests should tell you what it should do, not the code.

If you have the specification, everyone (and also AI) can write the code for you to make it work.
But the specification is about what you think it should do.
That are the questions and requirements that you have about the system.

Interesting how the article makes no mention of median salary nor workweek for U.S. postdocs.
