Correct. When I did the presentation, I did mention we attempted to type Elixir and failed. Therefore, the idea of saying the language was "complete" was precisely to signal the community that most of the work would happen in the ecosystem and not by directly changing the language. Especially because:

* The language was designed to extensible - see how Numerical Elixir can compile Elixir to the GPU and it didn't require changes to the language (we improved the language based on some needs but it was never a blocker)

* A lot of the hard work that makes Elixir better every year is actually happening on the Erlang VM, which we mostly get to leverage by doing nothing (for example, Elixir "got" a JIT since I said we were complete and we had to change nothing)

I'd say the definition of "completed" still holds, because we haven't announced changes to the language yet, but if the work on the type system succeeds, then we will introduce a new typing annotation, which is definitely big enough to void the label after 7-8 years.

I didn't know Kim and Co.; but I have handmade Indian fountain pens from ASA Pens, Ranga Pens and Fosfor Pens and all of them are excellent. And the price is a steal compared to what one can get in e.g. the EU.

My only peeve is that for some reason (cultural I guess?) most pens by these manufacturers are what I would consider very large (for my taste, 13-14 cm length closed and ~13 mm diameter, like a Platinum Century #3776 or an Aurora Optima, is a good size). I always end up fishing for the smallest models, e.g. I like the Ranga Markandeya.

It seem like a super neat project, just why does it need to do the "SVG to React" transformation on the remote? (N.b. that remote endpoint is broken in the "frozen" Firefox version.) It bundles SVGO already, so I'd guess bundling SVGR should not be a problem (?)

I don’t know… I think a very big reason why people don’t take taxis is because they are very expensive especially for longer rides. This seems like a thing robo taxis might change. If the driver goes away, they shouldn’t be much more expensive than e.g. car rentals.

Because this big companies like Google are actually evil. As an example the mobile YouTube app does not let you use it if you turn off the screen. So Google decided that wasting energy and killing batteries is an acceptable thing to do, this is pure evil - I would accept they adding more advertising or whatever but killing the life span of a device and wasting energy is truly evil shit.

You make this argument, and while the burden of proof is on you, you refute the answer with "because it goes against your political views".

These "trans issues" have existed for thousands of years[1] and yet humanity is still thriving.

And even assuming that your argument was founded and right, trans issues would be close to the bottom of the list of priorities compared to other detrimental behavior expressed by humanity. Wars, actively destroying our own planet and environment, discrimination, over-consumption.

Their revenue for 2023 was 8.7B. It's probably going to be close to that total of 11B. I think at this point they are basically profitable. Of course they are investing heavily in new money makers (like star ship). But I don't think they are low on cash at this point or in need of more investments.

Sounds like a good investment to me. Too bad it's a private company; I would have loved to buy some shares otherwise.

Other companies, like Boeing, are in fact spending lots of money as well on rockets. They just have less to show for it. Boeing has wasted many billions on a rocket that is basically not going to be very competitive given that SpaceX has cheaper ones.
Ask HN: How do I get out of learning loop
I have a question that maybe some of you can relate to and I am hoping someone maybe able to answer it too.

I am a programmer. I code in Python. I also have a formal CS degree. But I was never able to land a job.

First it was some personal issue due which I couldn't relocate (My city does not have much IT jobs). Then, when I could relocate, I still couldn't secure a job. Reason: I cleared interviews and got job offers, but there was a huge salary disparity. Like more than 50% less salary than a male candidate was getting. I couldn't afford the relocation with those salaries.
Before anyone ask, REMOTE wasn't an option in the country I live in before covid. It still isn't much of an option.
I spent the next two years trying to get some job, a menial one, an IT support one, anything... But I couldn't. Reason: I had a gap from my education to my career entry.

SO, I started re-learning. I enrolled in courses. I got stuck in that loop. Because there was too much. It felt like I learnt nothing before.

And at this point, after four years of my graduation, I feel like I have no knowledge. My DS is rusty (I know them, and I keep learning them). But when I try to solve a simple problem, it takes me more hours then it should. My confidence is shattered at this point. I tried other careers, but I just cannot get myself to do them long term. I feel at home while coding. And it isn't like I am bad at it. I never was when I was a student. I was really good at it. I am good at Mathematics and all the technical subjects. They come naturally to me. But when it comes to a job, I don't know how to land a it.

I want to get out of this learning loop where I keep experiencing that I know nothing so I keep learning and I think I am good for it and then I apply for jobs and the loop repeats itself.

I could really use some advice. Anything. How to land a job, how to actually learn something (if I am missing something), or how to move on if it isn't meant for me and where to?

Sorry for the long post, sorry for emotional dump, and thank you in advance for any advice.

Thank you for your thoughts. Why is it suitable for only small sites?
Some more data - the math geniuses I knew were actually happier, more well-rounded, and fitter than the average person at my former school.
In a similar story, in my TAC support days (I supported the PIX firewall) I got an odd case: an FTP transfer of a particular file always stopped for a customer.

At the same place. No other files were affected.

I knew that there was nothing to interfere with an active data transfer in a PIX but nonetheless. I asked him to take a sniffer trace outside the PIX.

Indeed, one TCP segment just kept getting dropped and retransmitted. I extracted the data from that particular segment, zipped it as a file, and asked him to try transferring this, much shorter file. It failed.

And this was when I spotted that each time we’d attempt to transfer the file, the CRC errors on the receiving PIX interface incremented by one.

Replacing the cable connecting to that interface had alleviated the problem. Whether it was a cable quality or a cable just not plugged correctly, will remain a mystery, but that case was helpful to always remember that somewhere low enough everything digital is still analog. And yes, having layers in the architecture is very good.
> The average small child can't say what Dad's phone number is, or even his full name

Is that really true? I guess I'm not sure what the age cutoff for "small child" is. I was at Disneyland with my seven-year-old nephew recently, and he was able to immediately and without hesitation recite both his mother's and father's phone numbers. Incidentally, I still remember the phone number of the house my family moved out of when I was five years old, nearly 40 years ago.

Admittedly, I don't think my four-year-old niece knows her parents' phone numbers, and my other nephew, who is two, certainly does not. But that's why their parents don't let them out of sight in public.

And yes, there's the possibility that someone screws up, and they get lost. But I'm not convinced that assuaging fear of that is worth the trade-off of getting kids used to being tracked 24/7. (Regarding kidnapping, nowadays only the dumbest of kidnappers won't know to spot a smartwatch or smartphone on a kid and ditch them immediately. And regardless, the risk of a kid getting kidnapped is likely orders of magnitude lower than their parents might believe it to be.)

It doesn't even depend. The underlying engine that executes opcodes is the same. Minimal speedup from not having to execute several "new objectname" commands isn't even a drop in the sea when it comes to what servers do.

I, for one, would love to be wrong about this and that FrankenPHP with all the other alternative runtimes actually brought benefits.

I've long hoped for Uber to roll out on-demand door-to-door UberPool with 14 passenger vans. They could match riders to drivers and find the optimal route in real time, with pricing and travel time falling between public transit and UberX, all in the footprint of a F-150.

No need to wait for autonomy. They have (had?) such a service in Cairo, but unlicensed jitney vans were already common there. They never launched it elsewhere.
Similar timeline - Oracle had a feature called external tables where you can create a "table" on top of an external flat file and run queries against it. Prior to that we were use awk/perl etc and found it to be more performant + all the benefits that SQL brings.
Even in that situation, at most you need some way to get a location at that moment when they chose to reach out to you, not tracking.

> Proving that a parallelogram with equal diagonals is a rectangle is an exercise in itself; I’d prove it through Thales’ theorem, myself..

IIRC you prove it via angles.

a) The sum of angles of any triangle is pi.

b) The sum of angles of any quadrilateral is 2*pi.

c) Since you rotate the triangle, opposite angles end up adding together. Because of the above, a bit of reasoning around symmetry shows that when diagonals are equal they can only add to pi/2 and that the other ones can only be pi/2. Any other angle leads to a contradiction.

I mentioned angle values but (again IIRC) this can all be proven with compass and ruler.

All these examples are casual rides, while the context was about taking the taxi daily to work. Of course you can keep your car for the weekend drive to the mall, or to the slopes, or if you're a soccer mom, but most employed people will definitely save the daily commute.

I’ve done a little bit of reading around and the term subsidy is often used without further clarification. For example, is it direct payments, or business tax breaks, or tax breaks on sales of EVs, or something else?
> If you worry about your parent knowing your exact location, then maybe it’s not a healthy parent-child relationship to begin with.

Are you kidding me? I remember being a teenager in the 90s. I had a great relationship with my parents (not perfect, of course, but who does?), and I absolutely would not have wanted them to have my exact location on-demand. I didn't get up to all that much that they didn't want me to do, but being tracked would mean I would not have done those things, and would have missed out on valuable experiences, because I would have been afraid that they'd randomly check up on me when I was in a place I wasn't supposed to be. (And no, I'm not talking about drinking or drugs or anything like that.)
Ah ok. I don't know the place, I have never even visited the US in my life :)

That "train passing occasionally" holds the equivalent of hundreds of cars.

A random crappy light rail line will do the equivalent of 5 lanes of traffic (each direction). A serious subway more like 20.

Even if you run cars with no distance between the bumpers you'll still need room for changing lanes, crossing and the line.
I once asked a director "why do we spike the fine makeup station in three different fine places for the three backstage scenes?" and she replied "because the relationship between the younger actor and older actor changes between those scenes: in the first, the older is a mentor, and in the last, the younger has eclipsed him, so the angle of the station to the audience, literally upstaging the older actor, reflects his metaphorical upstaging during their careers."

Not only did that make sense, but it's an example of even the scenery profiting from learning its motivation.
Maybe the Tutsis had autonomous vehicles or were tools of surveillance capitalism? You can never be too sure right? After all, their attackers as you make clear must have had "every moral justification" to kill hundreds of thousands of people right ?
Anecdotally, where I live in a more rural area now, it's common to see kids out riding bikes during the day. Contrast that, I work in the city and unless it's right after when school lets out, I don't see nearly as many kids just riding around. Perhaps it's because they really stay inside the neighborhood or culdasac, but the city is small enough and well connected (Netherlands) with bike infrastructure, that I would expect to see more kids around.

Perhaps this is also influenced by the number of expats in the larger cities and those people are unsure of the safety/normalcy aspect and tend to lean towards caution? I'd be interested to see some data!
I'm guilty of thoughts about autonomous companies. They don't require AI necessarily, just a formula to hire reliable humans. One could short cut to the gedankenexperiment by assuming the company owner is a p-zombie[0]. It would boil down to the same thing without scaring the humans. Even the judge would have to accept it.

I share my location with my kids and ask them to do the same. They are aware that I can see their location. Since they never pick up their phone or respond to messages, it's the quickest way to check if they are already on their way home.

If they want to do something that they don't want me to know, they can just turn off location sharing, or leave their watch at home.

Talking about Rogaway: I implemented OCB3 a long time ago as an exercise (after failing for many weeks to get GCM working. I am neither a programmer nor mathematician). Iirc it could have any nonce length up to 120ish bits. I don't remember much from it.

Could it be extended in a similar way to be more like xchacha with 192 bit nonces where using random nonces are easier?

> We have systems being maintained where the team responsible goes "look we have a million lines of SQL stored procs. We don't know what all of them do because most of them were written in the mists of time and there's no documentation, or the documentation is so obviously wrong we can ignore it entirely".

Interesting - when thinking of systems that I've personally worked on which I could never imagine being replaced, the first one that came to mind was one with exactly the same problem: a massive cache of SQL stored procedures at the core that nobody seemed to fully understand. This particular company had even implemented stuff like HTTP auth token validation and all access control with SQL scripts without any centralized access control architecture. It was outright terrifying to touch the SQL.

When I started at the company the manager advertised they "really have no upper limit" on how much they compensate developers who stick with them for years.

I guess a big problem with implementing large parts of the application logic with SQL is that it's simply not a tool fit for the purpose. Incrementally replacing, or even reasoning about, logic splintered accross assorted SQL scripts is very difficult. So nobody has the full picture of what are all the things the monolith does.
It absolutely does depend and "several new" might be "thousands new". It literally depends on what you're doing.

> The underlying engine that executes opcodes is the same.

Not exactly. FrankenPHP uses a ZTS build of PHP, which includes thread-support. Meaning you can actually spawn real-life threads in your PHP code with just a bit of work.

I've actually been working on a Parallel drop-in replacement that uses FrankenPHP/go instead of maintaining its own thread system.
I do personally think it's weird, but if other's are fine and comfortable with it, what two consenting adult decide about tracking each other is none of my business.

But kids don't get to consent to this. Their parents decide for them, regardless of what they do or don't want. I don't think kids should be forced to submit to 24/7 tracking, regardless of the intent behind it.
Your WiFi and upstream are fairly well matched. When you say 10mbit, is that using the site that's causing problems or is that a speed test? As a speed test it seems slow, unless there's some congestion on the WiFi or uplink.

If it's the speed you're seeing the the site causing the problem, it makes me suspect that there is a issues with selective ack that could cause the issues you describe. Maybe some jitter or out of order arrival. Probably need to see some packet dumps to see how it's behaving and compare the ones that work well and the one that doesn't.

This reminds me of the wanderings I used to do in my home city as a 10 year old. The city is on the long arc of a pretty big river so once I got lost and realized that if I just keep going in the direction of the river, I would never get lost because once you reach the shore, you can easy walk back. That free'd me to walk into alleys I have never been to and explore my city. It also made me feel quite proud (even though that was admittedly a mundane epiphany).

Granted things were simple then and law and order was not a big issue for this to happen but I am grateful for my parents to not interfere too much in my exploring time.
