The rage was obviously premature, but to give the ragers the benefit of the doubt, maybe it was in anticipation of the all-too-common "You'll get over it"[1] stance that actually didn't end up happening this time. I can totally understand users' frustration with software in general these days, where developers keep cramming in unwanted features, with an "Eat it--it's good for you" attitude. This particular maintainer did not have this attitude, but it's so common as to be expected now.

Whenever any software I use changes anymore, I instinctively expect it to get worse because the developer chose to add something unwanted. It's a sad state for software in general.

I've thought about teaching them this, but ultimately I decided against. While they may find unclaimed loose change for you, they could just as easily figure out a scheme to distract and rob some poor beggar or busker, and you wouldn't ever know.

There's probably some kind of crow-to-crow "these are friends, these are enemies" abstract communication, but I don't think you'd have much luck communicating the concept "to me, humans are friends, so don't rob them on my behalf" across the species barrier.

'I Am Not a Typo' campaign fights autocorrect bias against names
Europe is its own beast of healthcare data problems for sure - perhaps one day.

We get asked the fundraising question a lot, especially since we're open source. Once investors understood that we still have a hosted product we charge for, and that we have a large moat since someone could fork our code but it'd be very difficult to run the business (compliance, getting access to the different networks, understanding the niche space, etc) - open source wasn't a hinderance to raising.

One thing we learned though, is that even though every human interacts with the healthcare system in some capacity - very few people know how things actually work. So, we had to tailor our pitches to make investors understand why our product matters, since generally even people that have healthcare experience, have no idea what the hell an HIE is.

That, and our GTM allowed us to sell quickly, without needing to wait for slow moving hospital contracts, as are typical in healthcare - so some decent traction definitely helped.

Bette Midler sued Ford for hiring an impersonator. She lost in the circuit court and won on appeal. The fact pattern in the appeal was that Ford had explicitly asked their actress to "sound as much as possible like Bette Midler". That's exactly what didn't happen here: not only did they not ask the actor to impersonate SJ or her character from "Her", they didn't even mention SJ. The actor used her natural speaking voice.

Is this a real opinion people have, or am I misunderstanding...

It sounds like you're recommending people to not understand the shell one-liners they're pasting into their CLI and instead just verify that the outcome was observed after the fact?

That's pretty much the opposite of what I've understood to be "good terminal practice" for my entire life, which can be summed up as "don't execute anything in the terminal that you don't understand".

Is "just paste it and hope you don't lost data/just installed a virus" the new modus-oprandi?
> If it weren't for their attempt to link the voice to SJ (i.e. with the "her" tweet), would that be OK?

No.

The fact that it sounds very much like her and it is for a virtual assistant that clearly draws a parallel to the virtual assistant voiced by SJ in the movie (and it was not a protected use like parody) makes it not OK and not legal.

> Surely it's OK to hire an English actor who sounds a lot like him, so long as I don't use Sir Patrick's name in the advertising.

Nope.

If you made it sound identical to Patrick Stewart that would also likely not be OK or legal since his voice and mannerisms are very distinctive.

If you made it sound kind of like Patrick Stewart that is where things get really grey and it is probably allowed (but if you're doing other things to draw parallels to Patrick Stewart / Star Trek / Picard then that'd make your case worse).

And the law deals with grey areas all the time. You can drag experts in voice and language into the court to testify as to how similar or dissimilar the two voices and mannerisms are. It doesn't nullify the law that there's a grey area that needs to get litigated over.

The things that make this case a slam dunk are that there's the relevant movie, plus there's the previous contact to SJ, plus there's the tweet with "Her" and supporting tweets clearly conflating the two together. You don't even really need the expert witnesses in this case because the behavior was so blatant.

And remember that you're not asking a computer program to analyze two recordings and determine similarity or dissimilarity in isolation. You're asking a judge to determine if someone was ripping off someone else's likeness for commercial purposes, and that judge will absolutely use everything they've learned about human behavior in their lifetime to weigh what they think was actually going on, including all the surrounding human context to the two voices in question.
Copying and pasting from a comment below -- we considered this heavily during our MVP, but in practice "moving an Excel process to Python" does not just mean executing an Excel file through Python. This pretty much doesn't replace your Excel dependence at all.

Consider the following (pretty easy) translation of a simple table:

# This is not a useful or usable artifact; you're still trapped in Excel
# but things are just worse now, since it's not on a 2d grid
A1 = "Prices"
A2 = 1
A3 = 2
B1 = "With Tax"
B2 = SUM(A1, 10) * 1.3
B3 = SUM(A2, 10) * 1.3

But this is ultimately is an awful solution for the user:
1. It’s 100% impossible to read. A large Excel file often has 100k+ formulas (many of them with shared structures). This is 100k+ lines of code...
2. It’s impossible to maintain. Yeah, since it lacks all semantic structure, there’s no f* way you’re going to test it or modify it.

To make it really concrete: you can't just transpile a SUMIF or VLOOKUP to a Python implementation of SUMIF or VLOOKUP, and you absolutely can't do this on a cell-by-cell basis.

Rather: we're trying to generate a Python script that appears to be written by an expert developer. To do this, you have to be willing to ditch the Excel formulas / execution engine, do more abstract reasoning over the file (like identifying tables / consistent formulas in columns and translating them as pandas dataframes), and translate them without just relying on matching the Excel exactly.

You want something closer to this:

df = pd.DataFrame({'Prices': [1, 2]})
df['With Tax'] = (df['Prices'] + 10) * 1.3

We want parity of outputs, not parity in how we get there!

You're assuming that network latencies follow the triangle inequality, i.e., that A->C is smaller than A->B + B->C. However, that breaks down because of money. It's possible that the user's ISP is a cheapskate without good peering agreements such that while A->B is fast, they haven't setup the necessary agreements to make A->C fast.

I've personally seen this with a game recently and my own ISP. I can ping their West Coast servers in 20-40ms while pinging their Chicago servers takes 200ms+.

This is actually one huge flaw with the current way IP is done. Because your ISP is closely tied with the last-mile of routing, you have very little control over optimizing those backend layers of routing.

This doesn't explain why you wouldn't just run a thin proxy at the edge and instead want to run a full PHP app. For that, my guess is this makes sense when you don't want to run a full server all the time or if you want it to be rapidly scalable.

You see "a lot" of "I just smoked a joint" or "we thought we were getting LSD/X/oxy etc" in teenage fentanyl ODs that recover. Also having had exposure to the drug dealing side via public health interactions and community support groups, my visibility into it has told me these are not careful meticulous people as a whole.

Unless you pay for it with a credit or debit card, which probably accounts for pretty much every ticket sold in the US.

World of Warcraft action bars are this way by default, and I imagine other MMOs do as well. Drag a spell onto the bar to be able to use it more easily. Click it (or, ideally, press an associated hotkey), and it casts the spell or uses the item. Drag the button, and it will make it so that you are again moving the spell around to put it on a different action bar slot (or remove it).

Some of them make it so that you have to hold shift when dragging, and that would play nicely with act-on-press, since you already know that the shift-click indicates the start of a drag.

Instead of a config object and a .map(), just using plain components make more sense:

<ProductList>
<Product name="Foo" price={1.99} />
<Product name="Bar" price={2.75} />
<Product name="Baz" price={3.49} />
</ProductList>

If the list is large or dynamically tendered, then sure mapping over a list makes more sense.

Also, passing in props as object isn't always sensible. Sometimes just spreading them out as individual props makes more sense if they're consumed together (ie to an Address one I'd prefer to use individual props instead of <Address address={address} />).

There's nothing too wrong with components that have many props (I guess same thing that applies to functions with long argument lists applies here too, which is they can be annot to call, but use common sense).

The re-rendering thing shouldn't be a problem. You want thing to re rende if props change (assuming there's not an accidental referential instability causing spurious re-rendering)

There's also less potential performers gotchas with objects vs primitives due to how props get reconciled between rerenders), but this depends a lot on how the objects are created too.

As a rule of thumb, people should prefer primitives, not rich objects that get passed as a single props. The caveat here is that there's exceptions

The other stuff is sensible

This seems like a misunderstanding, WebAssembly has nothing to do with PHP’s internal performance mechanisms. WASM is a compilation target, this means you can take code which needs to be compiled (like PHP’s core binary), and compile it to be run in a browser.

PHP in WASM means developers can run actual, real, native PHP code in the user’s browser, without the user needing to have PHP installed locally, or nginx, etc…

You're assuming a stateful system where the state is distributed throughout the components of the system. For a stateless component of a distributed system, you don't need redundancy to recover from an outage.

Yes, absolutely true, but resiliency for a distributed system is not necessarily like your example of data stripped without parity, unless we're specifically talking about distributed storage.

There remain many artists who are associated with authenticity, but they've lost the focus of the general population (for now).

CICD pipelines can also work the opposite direction. No one looks into several thousands of console output unless there is some error. Also the tests are likely to pass even with excessive content in the final release package.

i didn't know what ahi said (that minimills already depend on cheap off-peak power) but intuitively i would expect an arc furnace to be pretty cheap compared to the power it uses; it's just a water-jacketed chamber lined with castable refractory with a lid with three big carbon electrodes lowered through it, and all of those are cheap materials and low-precision (tight tolerances won't withstand white-hot flaming steel for long). the machinery is large and heavy, but only in proportion to the volume of material it processes. the electrical energy consumption, on the other hand, is comparatively enormous

(admittedly maybe the capex for running the power lines to the facility is significant, but in the same proportion to the cost of the energy used as running transmission lines anywhere else)

there's a nice video illustrating the process at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1CJ5NPW8MU. don't be alarmed, the part that looks like a major industrial accident is just what happens normally when they turn it on. a more detailed documentary with explanations, though unfortunately of an atypically large arc furnace, is in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZRuVEfxIVI
