The drift (a second every ~1.5 years) is so small the accumulation is irrelevant to biological processes. 2000 years from now it does not matter that solar time has drifted ~an hour. Beyond "what people millennia ago used to do at 7 we do at when the clock says 8" not being a problem (assuming we even live similar lives) I'll be god damned if we can stop ourselves from changing zones and whether or not we'll observe DST this year for the next 20 years let alone what else we'll muck up in the next 2000.

TAI will still be there and needed by folks. UTC is stopping adding leap seconds in the future, not reverting back as if it never had any.
"I can make a JS or Go program perform the same way. In fact the exact same thing happened in my shop with Go/Gorm. The key question is: how do you compute the 5mb of JSON? The devil is in those details. We changed the way we computed ours, and the issue was gone."

The problem is ActiveRecord in my case. The data layout is not great (lots of joins through relationships, I think 12 tables or so). ActiveRecord objects are HUGE compared to the few bytes of actual data they hold.

What do you use (except raw sql) in Ruby if you cannot use ActiveRecord? There is no other ORM that's optimized for fast reads and I don't feel like writing one.

I actually reimplemented the same API endpoint in Go using https://github.com/go-jet/jet and measured 10MB of allocations and essentially zero overhead over queries itself, a 50x speedup.

Don't get me wrong, this is not what the typical Rails shop will deal with, but it definitely shows where limitations of Rails lie and I'm dealing with stuff like that on a weekly basis in my job, and it's not even a large Rails app (3M LOC).

I agree, the analogy is shaky.

Adding extra components to you solution, like Kafka, adds complexity, overhead, maintenance etc. While adding an extra rocket stages reduces load, because you get rid of the extra rocket element as soon as it has been used. It will make the rocket lightweight once it is in final orbit.

The intention is good, but the analogy isn't right, it's actually the opposite :)

I never like analogies in decision making, especially when done by management who don't understand technical details of a solution. "Sure we need Kafka, we can't send a tank ship into space can we?"

> The comment you are replying to is ridiculous. Frankly by engaging I perpetuate ridiculousness and I should know better.

This is against the community guidelines. With over 13k karma points, you know better.

I hesitate to ask, but pretend for a moment that I am an earnest rationalist who respects logical arguments and lets truth lead to conclusions even if I am not happy with those conclusions.

Can you, striving to minimize emotionalism or logical fallacy, walk through in concise points what specifically is "ridiculous"?
Yes. For production, struct are obvious choice. But here arrays were similar to how documentation specified data will be on the wire. So for educational purposes (to explain protocol) it seemed like a better choice. But I might be wrong and maybe structs would have been more approachable way to understand.
Depends which jurisdiction. It’s legal in the UK if you have a license and I think it has to be professionally butchered and labelled at a registered slaughterhouse.
Nope. They’re grooming the next generation of hand shaking hucksters who drink the kool aid.
Pretty insane that there hasn't been a class action law suit yet.
Not really. Adding leap seconds at the end of years is inferior because a year is a human-scale duration.

Planning something “next year” is human-scale. Planning something “next century” is not human-scale because I won’t be alive then.

If we use leap minutes then most people will not see one in their lifetime, compared to everyone seeing multiple leap seconds in their lifetime.

Why is it always impossible to have an adult discussion on this issue? (An interesting question for academics, I think)

Obviously we are all people. The question is do we keep chasing an ever increasing population or do we accept that it cannot keep growing and should in fact probably decrease?

Most developed countries have birth rates below replacement rate so this is already happening. We need to accept it and adapt.

But this intern doesn't blame his tools. Unfortunately.

And one can hardly say it is a poor end-user that blames the intern's tools.

I'll blame the person who created that tool.
Acquisitions, like for DeepMind is usually a way to hire talent. It can make sense when the technology is new and getting a few year of lead time on what is going to be a growing market may make some financial sense.

In this specific xLSTM case, the industry has matured, they are just one among many (Mamba, S3Ms, transformers-variants... ), they have already been sitting on it for at least 6 months, I don't see what their play is.

An other case study that's probably interesting, are the authors of the Adam Paper, https://arxiv.org/abs/1412.6980 , (Awarded "2020: The Adam optimization paper is the world's #1 most cited scientific paper of the past five years"). Probably a few (10?,100?) billions worth value created. You can find the authors bios http://dpkingma.com/ https://jimmylba.github.io/

I think there is a huge problem with the capture and sharing of value in the whole deep-learning industry. Academia's naivety plays a role in it, Generational Shift technologies are badly rewarded. Incremental Shift technologies aren't rewarded at all.

Powerful technologies into many hands with low rewards for their creators while the value they generate keeps going to the same pockets. That's a recipe for disaster.

Will be a fun thing to come back in a few years to see how it had unfold.

> There is no ethical meat

Depends on your definition of ethical. Assuming you define it in terms of a lack of cruelty to the animals and their handlers then such meat does exist.

However, the vast majority of meat is not that. The issue is it's cheaper to produce meat unethically than it is to produce it ethically. Because of that, at every step in the production to mouth there's a strong incentive to go the cheap route rather than the ethical route.
This is fine IMO if you get compensated.
For example my old job I got double baseline pay for Sundays and holiday work. This was fair.

Nowadays working in software I sometimes do stuff on the weekend - but only because I know I can take longer breaks during the week since part of the work is already done.

“Good enough” is my goal and it should be generally. IMO Norway has the best working culture in that regard, although I only know if from the outside/stories.
Without other contributing circumstances (like being remote due to disability), this is legal in many countries with actual worker protections, let alone the US.

This is just tech workers being precious and cosplaying as being hard done by. Lmao.
> structuring your life completely around work is a fools errand.

Structuring your life completely around anything is a fools errand — work, video games, family, food, etc.

Unless it’s not. Maybe the only thing you care about in the world is your family and you’ll ignore everything else. Maybe video games are your truest passion and you’ll do whatever it takes to play them 80 hours a week.

Maybe I love CRUD apps and Jira as much as my next door neighbor loves his wife. Who’s to say?

If you want to devote your entire life to one thing, go nuts. It’s probably going to have some consequences whether that thing is work or not.

When you've become so bad at quality, they would even find bad cases from when you did real good years before that!

It's well known - they said it themselves - that you're authenticating on their server infrastructure, not on device.

Is it secure? Definitely not, you're essentially giving them your passwords. Is it a problem if you're accessing your Spotify account through email/unique password? Not so sure - I guess I can continue to live even if they abuse my playlists.

Beware of signing in using Microsoft/Google/Facebook accounts, though. I'd never do that.
True, but there's a major difference between who leaves. A well-implemented RIF would eliminate many of those who prefer a Return to Office. So - for them - this is a better alternative.
65% is owned by 1 person so lets ignore that percentage for the purposes of describing a 'crash' as that 1 person wouldn't crash it themselves intentionally.

Now you're left with 35% for retail and institutional investors.

> Vertical screens are fantastic

Strong :+1: from me. I am typing on a 27" retina iMac with a second 27" Thunderbolt display on my right, in portrait mode thanks to a SuperMac stand that was as expensive as a cheapo LCD in its own right.

But it's fantastic for reading long PDFs and other not-readily-resizable documents, for searching through my emails and so on. Much more use than a widescreen – whose adoption was driven, not for computers or software or ergonomics or anything, but by the commodities of the scale of production of TV screens.

Right it's not about moving holidays its about planning them for a reasonable time if you have strong seasonality to your job.

If your job is some giant e-commerce retailer and you probably shouldn't take Black Friday or the week before Christmas off. If you work in accounting or some operations role then quarter end is likely bad. If you work in tax, then late March thru April probably bad. Etc.

There's plenty of time in the year to take off around whatever your jobs regular busy season is. Don't set yourself up for failure.
The harder part would be a way that isn’t traceable afterwards.

Show HN: Rusher.ai – AI Copilot for Content Marketing That Knows Your Startup
Hey HN'ers! Hope you're doing well
Today I'm launching this startup that I've been working on for some months now.

It's an AI copilot for Modern Marketing Teams.

Basically you describe your business to us. Be it by a simple text description, or something more complex like uploading images, powerpoint presentations, word docs, etc...
Anything that you upload will be used by a LLM to then:

1. Brainstorm content ideas

2. Turn those content ideas either into visual social media posts (we do linkedin and instagram carousels for now)

3. Written content like blog posts, ad copy, cold emails etc... (where we do provide a real time collaboration feature thanks to liveblocks!)

Besides those main features we also allow you to:

- Create your own brand voice, so you don't sound robotic like all other ChatGPT generators.

- Define Brand Safety Rules. These are strict rules that aren't based on AI so you are perfectly sure that your texts ALWAYS follow these rules.

Thanks in advance, I hope you like the tool. I'm open for your feedback

Mike

I don't know what it is either
Absolutely. Yet where's the "AI" that can do such voting?
Yep. It's not particularly hard to determine which people will sell others out for a good paycheck.
Just remember that blindly updating dependencies that no one trustworthy has reviewed is opening yourself up to supply chain attacks.

Blindly upgrading is worse than never upgrading unless you are addressing a specific CVE that impacts you.

Public open source code is code you did not have to write which can be a time saver, but you do not get to skip code review.

If you do not have time to review 2000 dependencies, then you should drop them favoring simple functions that only do what you need.
Pff, they're sharing their work for free and you complain about a 30s ad?
The idea of using transparent container maybe a good idea. Some indicator when you are sucking only water.

Because I am fool, I tried to make my own. But gave up because breakages were indicated only by lung full of water, which tend to be fatal.
Sounds to me like there's a long blog post waiting to be written.
Do you want to be buried in a bog?
It's not tech, but HN has many bog body posts.

My brother wants to be buried in a bog, so that he can become a bog body, and be found by archaeologists in a few thousand years.

I think it's a great idea and I want to see if anyone else wants the same thing. We're at the community building / gauging interest stage; so if you're interested then sign up to our wait list / newsletter.
And the referencing the essentially unrelated Max production issues in an article about the fairly routine case of a 30 year old aircraft in a developing country experiencing issues which might be related to maintenance is probably more egregious. It's like suggesting that the stakes in whatever the latest Microsoft scandal is have been raised by someone installing malware on their XP system
In this specific case, it's because Middle Eastern countries want live imports due to halal requirements.

Live exports should be entirely banned.
I don’t love the analogy but I understand the point being made. That said, I might agree with something like microservices or k8s adding a lot of overhead, but at this point, I don’t really agree with single page apps being in the same category. Someone who is comfortable with React can spin up and deploy an app within minutes. The hosting infrastructure is basically the same as deploying vanilla HTML, the hard parts are abstracted away and the vast majority of issues you’ll come across have been solved before on some web forum. This doesn’t mean you can’t write bad react, but for most use cases, it’s not any harder than writing pure html/css/js (and id argue that the popularity of React is due to it being much easier).
Considering it’s a real place…

How much do you want to bet that both of them are wrong?
Boeing is a money maker now for news outlets. We will hear absolutely everything going wrong with a Boeing plane for the foreseeable future. Honestly, I am surprised there isn't more failures given the current narrative.
It's not like most the popular existing ones are really good (or feel good to use). They mostly have the benefit of momentum.

I almost think there's no way to make a good build system...without making it far harder when you need to do something slightly different. Rust has a simple build system, but it really depends on the package manager, and custom build setup is a build script in Rust...so the build system has to build the build script...

From product C code perspective, this code is of course bad. But here idea was to show data manipulation closer to how it is shown in documentation.

Also a lot requests have dynamic size and cannot be as easily packed and serialized to be sent over the "wire". So for example you could put pointer to string into struct, malloc required space, then assign pointer. After when you want to send data you would have to write serialization methods to put it in correct order. It is all fine and should be done when you build bulletproof system to manage X11. But here these techniques just draws too much attention away from X11.

> We only have a problem if we agree with the contention that kids protesting genocide are some sort of chaos agent.

Logically, they are, though. They are impervious to logical argument that it is not a genocide. Their only evidence, ultimately, is Hamas' "trust me, bro" and their own presumption that Israel is evil. If people throw the word "genocide" around without second thought out question and cannot accept any mitigating argument, they are not helping. So, yes, chaos agents and no, not just "college students sleeping rough".
One, that’s not that old and shouldn’t be crashing on take-off and two, the narrative that it’s shady African carriers that are to blame is getting old.

In fact, it’s exactly what Boeing always says right before they are in fact to blame.

I'm not so sure in this case. I think many companies' aggressive return-to-office policies are a method for attrition: layoffs in disguise.

Case in point: the Federal Canadian government has recently increased the mandatory number of weekly in-office days from 2/week to 3/week, with no clear explanation. I suspect that it's a way to reduce the workforce with less pushback.
Very curious, in our understanding we thought the companies don't really have the time to spend their engineering bandwidth on project management. How do you think providing such an architecture can help?

It's been over 10 years since I last used Jira, but I still miss a lot of it. Where I saw it become a problem was that over time it accumulated layers and layers of people messing with it, especially as the company went through a phase of hiring project managers with a need to mark their territory by changing all of the workflows. What started out as a relatively lightweight tool used by the engineers to organize their work became a convoluted mess.

To be fair, that's not unique to Jira, and I certainly can't say I haven't put my own fingers in that pie.
