Very little in human history has had the reach of those websites you're talking about, and on those users tend to be in their own bubbles. On 4chan, with its millions of users over the past couple of decades, attention is centered around a few boards.
There might even be a whole ladder going further down. You, something about the value of everything and the cost of nothing.

I've seen tests with bugs in them, hiding bugs in the code and giving a false sense of robustness. because, you know, code coverage is 100% so we cannot have any bugs, right?

I had to work with tests that test many trivial things, tightly coupled with implementation details. Those would discourage small refactorings, because it took a lot of time to understand and fix the failed tests as changes in details of implementation would lead to failures in unittests. It also slowed down the pace of development for no good reason.

Unless a test has a value that exceeds the cost, it is a net negative.
Assembling Intelligence: Alternative Perspectives on AI Through Art and Design
Assembling Intelligence, a multidisciplinary symposium organised by HEAD – Genève (HES-SO), will bring together artists, designers, and researchers to highlight a spectrum of alternative definitions for ‘artificial intelligence’. The discussions will introduce much-needed diversity into the otherwise monochromatic and frequently cynical perspectives manifested in mainstream corporate AI models.

A series of talks, workshops, and performances will bring attention to overlooked intellectual histories of AI, explore intersections between popular culture and human-machine intimacy, look at open software as means for creative emancipation, and highlight diverse futures for our damaged planet by extrapolating from the material and environmental underpinnings of AI infrastructures.

Yes and people are paying top money to Canonical and RedHat to maintain these software don’t you think? They have huge enterprise contracts and I feel like this should be on them? Im not blaming anyone it just goes to show how vulnerable they are. Also other linux distros, Fedora, arch, etc. they have the money and should make their software safe don’t you think?
Other browsers will implement the feature soon. This isn't like webgpu or webusb, which just appeared before other browsers even reacted.

If Firefox and Webkit do introduce compatibility issues, you can always correct those later, though I doubt there will be any.

For what?
NixOS uses a monorepo and I think everyone loves it.

I love being able to easily grep through all the packages source code, and there's regularly PRs that harmonizes conventions across many packages.

Nixpkgs doesn't include the packaged software source code, so it's a lot more practical than what Debian is doing.

Creating a whole distribution often requires changes synchronized across many packages, so it really makes things simpler.

https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs

I think it's important to add that they both have the biggest number of packaged software and the most up-to-date software of all distributions even though they have far fewer maintainers than Debian.

The beta has been running for a while, half a year at least. I don't think it should be advertised as a feature just yet, not until we have a solid release date.

I'm also not sure if the audio and video channels work like Discord's, I believe these channels are rooms that you would need to be present in; I'm not sure if you can browse other channels and servers while in a call. That said, it's been a while since I last checked.

A web site can't have the property "enjoyable." People experience enjoyment, or not, subjectively. If you don't enjoy HN you can think about why you react to it the way you do.

Sorry for the link, it seems like archive.is is no longer able to bypass the paywall for the WSJ.
a hundred small repos are a different kind of nightmare.

the truth is, having a large code base is just hard no matter which way you handle it. you'll end up with custom repo tooling for the monorepo or blown up CI/CD infrastructure for many small repos either way. complexity will be conserved; it can be transferred, but can't be removed.
What are you actually proposing here? Any Ubuntu/Debian distribution contains hundreds or thousands of packages and transitive dependencies - it's unreasonable to expect corporations to contribute, even financially, to all of these.

This is supposed to be what services such as Tidelift provide - companies pay them, and OSS maintainers sign up with them for funding (and other support? unsure). But it's tough to apply this through the whole OSS ecosystem. To me, this should be what Canonical's support contracts should be for. They're perfectly positioned to help mediate these types of issues.

Hartwig Medical Foundation | Software Developer ACTIN team | Amsterdam, NL | Hybrid On-site

We're a foundation that has been developing a diagnostic whole genome sequencing test for tumors, to speed-up the uptake of personalized cancer treatments for patients in the Netherlands. While the developed diagnostic test results in a complete and high quality list of applicable biomarkers per patient, we see that it is still difficult for the patients to get a personalized (experimental) treatment due to the very large number of options and frequently changing treatment options in a still very manual hospital set-up.

We're trying to solve this by building an algorithm that not only takes into account the molecular data that we generate for a patient, but also the clinical data. We use this data to create a report that contains a comprehensive overview of standard of care treatments and trials that are available for the patient, as well as a patient-like-me approach that helps clinicians in their decision making.

We're looking for developers that can help us with integrating hospital infrastructure and data with our cloud-setup. This involves working on-site from within hospitals on some days of the week, making sure that the creation of an ACTIN report is end-to-end automated and contains all relevant data. We work on Google Cloud Platform, code mainly in Kotlin and don't have a strict hierarchy (for example, we all have the same job title).

Thanks for the added nuance which I missed. As far as I knew, there has always been a strong association, even though not formal, between Kuyper's denomination (the Gereformeerde Kerken in Nederland (GKN)) and the university.

Also ironical that within the GKN, one aspect of his theology was imposed by the synod, leading to a schism - again people fleeing from church control. (And one schism further led to the church I grew up in.)

Same as the other commenters, felt the article wasn't worth the time.

On documentation, it reminded me of the only aspect of JIRA that I really miss: the ease to link a ticket to a MR/commit, or even just mention the number in a comment.

That meant that on any code part, a quick look at the blame would get the ticket ID from the comment's prefix. Just paste the ID in a JIRA URL and voila: a full picture of the latest change that touched the code, what project/feature it was part of, the discussion on it if there was any, and potential the initial design documents linked from there.

Devs are lazy and so am I, having a single ID to stick anywhere to link to a context was so much easier that pasting notion links or having to write long MR descriptions.

I think people longing for more documentation would also be happy if our default tooling helped a lot more to link code to the external task management/discussion systems.
If I understand the situation correctly, in Haskell an unbounded number is the default that you get if you do something similar to JSON.parse(mystr). That means you can have issues basically anywhere. Whereas in Rust with Serde you would only get an unbounded number if you explicitly ask for one. That's a pretty major difference. Only a small number of places will explicitly ask for BigDecimal, and in those cases they probably want an actual unbounded number. And they should be prepared to deal with the consequences of that.

My 2cent anyway.

Linux kernel is a monorepo and somehow works. On the other side of the spectrum we have leftpad nonsense and latest xz thing.
it requires a lot of discipline for sure.

"It depends" is thrown around a lot; what I've seen working for large companies and on large projects (mostly AAA games, which do use a monorepo typically) is that having a single repo means your dependencies are more likely to be vendored, and updating the vendoring re-runs all tests across all services because dependencies are mapped across the whole project.

Incremental build is also something that becomes more possible, rather than constantly building all source from scratch as we tend to do for smaller projects.

There's a lot to be said for atomic commits, no "merge trains"[0] and things like a "common library" (that everyone ends up building in a large enough team) are just includes and not entire dependencies with all that entails (versioning, updating dependencies etc;).

Having everything in one place also tends to force people to put documentation near their code instead of something else like confluence.

It's pros and cons, and the pro's are kind of meek-sounding until you've experienced it.

I am more interest about his git commits https://github.com/JiaT75?tab=overview&from=2021-12-01&to=20...
If JiaT75 is a Chinese, then his working log should follow Chinese Holiday, especially Spring Festival and National Holiday.
Chinese usually not work on first 3 days of Spring Festival and National Holiday -
2021 2/11 - 2/13 (few commits), 2021 10/1 - 10/3 (nothing)
2022 1/31 - 2/2 (huge commits on 1/31, suspect), 2022 10/1 - 10/3 (nothing)
2023 and 2024, not very much commits.
So 2022 1/31 huge commits is a proof that he is not follow Chinese holiday.

But wait, 2021 is his active year, but he missed almost all Aug. Is he on holiday? Who can have such a long holiday? What i can think is a solider who has a long vacation (探亲假).
So let's guess he is a solider then it's sense that he worked on Spring Holiday because they need on duty.
Let's double check again, if he is a solider, then they will have a holiday on every Aug. 1 because it's liberation army day. I check and no commits on all 4 years Aug. 1.
Does Nix/Guix solve this?

There have been such articles my whole life yet fusion never seems to get nearer. From the MIT press release:

> It is designed to achieve a Q factor — a key parameter denoting the efficiency of a fusion plasma — of at least 2, essentially meaning that twice as much fusion energy is produced as the amount of energy pumped in to generate the reaction. That would be the first time a fusion plasma of any kind has produced more energy than it consumed.

I didn't realize until recently that such statements from physics researchers have to be read very carefully. These aren't statements about the actual net power output of a theoretical power station, even though they read that way. They "define out" huge power draws that are physically necessary.

The MIT PR is hardly better than the MSN article in this regard. The subhead says it "paves the way for practical, commercial, carbon-free power". They've done no such thing. The challenges faced by a real power plant are still far larger than usually gets reported.

The biggest practical challenge facing fusion isn't even generating sufficient power or being cheap enough, IMO. It's that it's still nuclear technology and the claims about it being "clean" are invariably only talking about carbon (and ignoring the CO2 in the construction). The operation of the plasma irradiates the power plant itself and generates large quantities of low-grade nuclear waste that must still be buried somewhere. It's not as dangerous as the stuff from fission but there'd be more of it, it can still leak causing biohazards, and you still need scary stuff like robots to work with the reactor. Fusion plants also need to be really big to be practical, and they would consume way more water as a consequence.

Given that the Greens have been shutting down nuclear plants due to general fear of nuclear technology, would something that looks just like it get a free pass? Despite the radioactive waste problem, the water consumption, the need for huge subsidies?

There's also the issue of where to get tritium for reactor designs that need it. You have to get it from fission reactors! In theory it can be recycled but the practical challenges for that are themselves enormous.

Having to switch branches in different repos to feature-xyz, remember to build it, and then finally work/test is more of a nightmare to me. In a monorepo, you just switch to the branch once, the build system builds everything that needs building, and you are ready to go.

Yeah, nix's remove-references-to does exactly that, it replaces the prefix with something deterministic (bunch of zeroes IIRC). I know about the gcc (and recently clang's) options to map the prefix, but the command line is annoying to use. Wish there was simply -relative-prefix or something and it would be the default. The nice thing about nix is that it will detect any references to /nix/store path that shouldn't be there and fail the build, so you immediately know if there is reproducibility problem related to the paths.
You don't want a cheap && powerful && fast robot in your home! Let alone sell a bunch of.
My qmail setup in 2000, on a humble beige box, was occasionally under a “thousands of bad addresses” attack, but I only found out about it a few days later while reviewing the logs. There surely was a threshold where it would be down on its knees - but “thousands” and even “tens of thousands” wasn’t it. The exchange server it replaced, though, would crash and burn very often, for a variety of reasons.
I would actually think that monorepos suck with Github and others like that. Looking at the Linux kernel for example, that seems to me like a well executed monorepo outside of Github. From what I’ve heard and read, they specifically use Git and mailing lists instead of Github or others because Github wouldn’t work for what Linux is (aside from as a mirror).

There might very well be some context I’m missing, but that’s what I understand from that side at least.
Thanks for sharing, any idea who is behind it?

The idea I hope for is a single fork many work on rather than a bunch of forks with everyone trying to become the one

> Usually once a project is big enough then there's enough demand from users that big companies start donating both money and employee time towards a project

I don't agree with “usually” there, I think it is an exception rather than the rule.

Where it happens, it tends to be higher profile, top-level, visible, projects that get this treatment from the commercial bodies that rely on them. The smaller projects that they might depend upon are likely to stay less visible, less thanked, and unsupported by those using them (directly or indirectly). What has happened with xzutils is a very good example of this and the potential dangers the situation poses.

I don't know how we should address this. It certainly isn't the responsibility of people like Collin to address, unless of course they want to take on that responsibility.

> if there isn't enough demand or support they simply stop working on it and that's it

Sometimes even if there is enough demand they stop, as is their right, when other priorities come up in their life (or they simply lose interest). A “community” using their stuff does not, and should not, automatically make them beholden to that community.
Same for Rust. In the short term we're trying to solve it on the user's side with https://crates.io/crates/cargo-goggles, but in the long term the registry should probably do it.

Im proposing that high security packages like this that effect ssh and main parts of the OS critical for security and safety should be maintained by actual enterprises not by one developer. Im not saying they should maintain everything, only the high importance parts of it. They should make sure that one bad actor cant compromise the whole ecosystem. I really don’t think what im saying is that far out of reach or that crazy.
Edit: also, why should a package like ssh have so many random dependencies? They should make sure these kind of packages have the least of dependencies especially on these kind of packages that have one maintainer to reduce the security risks?
