> you do not want a solution (in any language/tech) that involves pulling an entire day of market data off disk, across the wire and over to your process for analysis.

Personally I do this and just throw time / compute at the problem - mostly because I don't want to pay for KDB in $ or learning curve.

If, however, one does it that way then the actual db is largely irrelevant - if the shop uses KDB, write a query once to pull symbol & timeframe and process locally.
> Had we moved between -stable branches, bisecting 3+ years of changes could have
taken weeks

Would it really? Going by their number of 4 hours per bisect step, you get 6 bisections per day, which cuts the range to 1/64th of the original. The difference between "three years of changes" and "three weeks of changes" is a factor of 50x. I.e. within one day, they'd already have identified the problematic three week range. After that, the remaining bisection takes exactly as long as this bisection did.

Even if they're limited to doing the bisections just doing the working hours in one timezone for some reason, you'd still get those six bisection steps done in just three days. It still would not add weeks.
Ignoring most of your comment and only focusing on this part:

> the world needs smart people like you solving real problems

It has them. And they’re doing pretty much exactly this. What’s described in the OP resembles a pretty standard machine design process – the key is splitting up the complex goal into smaller manageable units. (And using tools for the tedious parts such as gear math; if the tools don’t exist, you of course develop your own!)

The author was presumably able to do this because they’ve already solved a real problem or two.

I often think that the reason why PHP is still so popular compared to Perl is because php never stopped evolving.

If php had paused development or even slowed it down like this it would also have been far less popular as probably even frameworks like Symfony and Laravel won't be possible with the older versions of php.

So thank you to the maintainers but I wish Perl evolved more quickly like PHP.

"Then I checked out the Green Party, but they were against it too. Then I checked out the Social Democrats, and they didn't speak out about open source. Then I check the other parties, and did not vote."

You can't expect to agree on all issues with a party. Weigh their programs (and voting history; I cannot stress enough how a party's history is a much better indication than their program) according to your views, and pick the top one. Otherwise your vote is lost to some party you probably share even less with.

I very much agree that the moon is a better target. Being able to send help in a few days instead of months is a big deal.

What I believe the moon is especially good for is as a launch pad for further exploration. Build mostly-automated factories in low but non-zero gravity and launch with a much smaller escape velocity. Lots of raw materials right there, easy energy from the sun (with solar panels in space for the night).

Unfortunately, the moon is "old hat" now that we've walked on it, and people want exciting new goals, not just a space factory.

> If your baseline is a questionaire, then the questions you would think to ask are going to be informed by your preconceived notions of the issue, and you're forcing the raw data out there to conform to these formats you've set for it.

Generally, you'd run a bunch of interviews to develop a question bank, and then run a bunch of pilots to figure out which set of questions work best.

I do agree that there's a big problem in that you base your new measure on how it performs on the old measures, which is problematic if both measures are survey based.

This is a real problem in a bunch of psychology research.

That being said, the actual problem is the culture. You are required to spout out theory if you want to be taken seriously. I only put a theory chapter into my PhD because I was forced to.

My grandfather was a "home child", basically a war orphan indentured, his contract sold to a farmer in Canada, while his brother went to Australia, never to be seen again.

But at the time, even for normal moves to Canada or other places, people were worried that their children would not be Subjects of The Empire.

So promises were made, that if subjects moved to a colony, their Grandchildren would be British". This was still a pledge in the 20s when my grandfather arrived in Canada, and thus I am eligible for a UK "Ancestry VISA".

This only works if your grandfather was born in the UK, amd went to a colony, and my point?

Well, eventually the last person capable of exercising this right will be gone. Maybe 30 years?

I've worked with thousands of other employees on a single monolithic codebase, which was delivered continuously. There was no complex overhead.

The process went something like this:

1. write code

2. get code review from my team (and/or the team whose code I was touching)

3. address feedback

4. on sign-off, merge and release code to production

5. monitor logs/alerts for increase in errors

In reality, even with thousands of developers, you don't have thousands of merges per day, it was more like 30-50 PRs being merged per day and on a multi-million line codebase, most PR's were never anywhere near each other.

I would argue that google employees are a much smaller issue:

- There are many less people (probably 2-3 orders of magnitude) accessing the data at all at Google, and (probably?) most sensitive data isn't accessible at all

- As you can't choose to avoid the government, the standard of trust should be much higher

- I don't know how well it works at Google. The reports of videogame leaks through employees accessing accessing unreleased Videos and the (for now) inability from Google to solve this problem at least indicates to me that the approach has issues.

- There are many more valid reasons for a government employee to access the data, so it's harder do differentiate. You also have the issues of police dempartments (and similar), where an access might not be allowed but done as unoffical policy "for the greater good"

- I would think that Google is much more capable of implementing and managing such a system than goverment suppliers or agencies, unfortunately

why not. any system can be "hacked". there is term called "booth capture" where the aggressive party takes over polling booths of an area and forces the voters to vote for their person. that is "hacking" and there is no proof of it and you can't really fight it.

anyway, the whole "unhackable" is stupid. this just gives away this rancid smell of ignorance and malice.

You were giving examples of local adaptations (bacteria building resistance) instead of paradigm shifts (beached fish growing legs). The science behind the former is established (mutations favored by environment); the science behind the latter is not. You are mixing the two together and complaining the second one is non-sense, but is it? Somehow fish had to learn to walk ("evolution from one organism to another") in a limited time including complex mechanics that our computers can't solve exactly; I am waiting for any computational biologist to give us some mechanism behind it that is realistic, i.e. computable. So far nothing and people keep mentioning local adaptations only.

> having multiple valid definitions of something that is foundational to a discipline

It’s foundational to one branch. Almost all of finance, for instance, doesn’t bother with utility functions.

One can similarly complain that mathematicians have different rules for parallel lines depending on geometry. Like, sure. But if you’re in the field it makes perfect sense why parallel lines don’t intersect in a Euclidean space but do in a curved one. Given utility functions are literally ordered sets of preferences, it strikes me as trivial that there would be a multitude of them. (If this bothers you, don’t look up Gödel.)

The economists who deal with utility functions are more or less applied game theoreticians. Some people have a problem with game theory and statistics because they’re unpure. Like, sure. Fine. I also have a small stable of useless opinions, e.g. raisins are trash fruit. That doesn’t mean raisins are themselves useless; it’s just my opinion that’s adding zero value in a world where raisins do.

Ask HN: What kind of license is good for a rendering engine?
Hi, I'm making a rendering engine for design files & vector graphics, and it is open sourced.

I've no idea what kind of license should I choose because I have both the following concerns:

1) What if someone steels it and claims it is theirs. Because software licenses are seldom respected in my country. Or they are just using my source code without paying me, meaning that I'm working for them for free forever.

2) If I choose a more strict license, e.g. including a royalty restriction, this will irritate the open source community, because everyone will think it a scam project.

So I have done my best to update the original license from 1.0 to 2.0, like this https://github.com/verygoodgraphics/vgg_runtime/blob/main/LICENSE-2.0

But I still have no idea if it is good enough to achieve the best balance between open source and commercialization. Could you guys give me any suggestions? Thanks!
No one is claiming everything in the queues will be built. But I'm talking about identifying bottlenecks. Also as some projects are removed from the queue, other projects will enter it, so the ratio of types of projects in the queues is relevant as well.
I just don’t even know where you’re getting this from. I have to wonder if you’ve read the original article. If that’s what you got from the wikipedia page, it’s wrong - I have Scanlon’s book in my hand and here’s a quote straight from the vibecession chapter

> “Of course, as I have talked about throughout the book, there are many real problems with the economy. We have a structural affordability crisis. A housing crisis. A healthcare crisis. A childcare crisis. The list is endless and nothing can hide anymore. The things to be anxious about are numerous. The geopolitical warfare. The walls of any sense of economic safety caving in. The endless political theatrics.”

And here’s a quote from the source document that coined the term vibecession, from her Substack:

> Markets are a profit-maximizing system. That is the point of All of This - the reason that people feel bad, the reason that the vibes are off, part of the reason that people get fired, companies go under, that McKinsey incentivized the opioid crisis - they knew it would kill people, but it would make money.
Money is not a moral compass.

How is this claiming that everything’s actually okay and that it’s just that we’re sad about stuff? If the claim was “the vibe is to complain” why did she give at least ten real problems that influence consumer sentiment there.
A lot of the stuff I hear people describing as masking is stuff that a few decades ago would have been called professionalism, or manners, or charm, or empathy.

When I'm meeting with representatives of a client, and one of them makes a suggestion that I know won't work, and I refrain from instantly and publicly shooting down their idea and instead I make a show of considering it, then ask them a probing question or two that let them realise the problem with the idea themselves - am I masking? Or am I merely being professional?

When I see something worthy of a compliment and I rehearse it in my mind to make sure it isn't objectifying or creepy, and that it's personalised to them and shows I paid attention to and understood the thing I'm complimenting - am I masking? Or just being charming?

When I'm socialising with people who are talking about their struggles to lose weight, and I in many years going to the gym have struggled to gain weight or visible muscle, but I keep my mouth shut rather than trying to build rapport about our shared inability to reach our target weight because I've tried it and I know it doesn't work - am I masking? Or just showing a normal level of social skills and empathy?

I feel like inequality is often used as a sort of scape goat in topics like this. The reason is that though we obviously have inequality that's in raw numbers substantially greater than ever before, it's also a very different form than in the past. In the past being poor meant you were probably living in makeshift housing, had no 'privileges' like plumbing or clean water, and could easily slip into genuine starvation if things got even slightly worse.

In modern times, obesity is one of the biggest health issues among the poor. The poor of times past would think we're living in a utopia. And in terms of "stuff" we probably are, but it doesn't feel like a utopia because it obviously isn't. Current times are probably the best evidence imaginable that all of the things we relatively ignore in terms of quality of life (family, nature, philosophy/purpose, and so on) are, at the minimum, no less important than the things we obsess over like income, education, and sexuality.

Also important: When asked to peer-review, tell editors that you won’t be doing free work for for-profit publications that land behind a paywall.
I think it's slightly different than that, in my experience as someone with both ADHD and occasional struggles with depression. For depression, there is this distinct sense of ennui, or that things aren't worth bothering with, that feels present enough emotionally to "identify" with as part of your intent.

But when that's not there, the ADHD ends up manifesting as this sort of detachment of my own thoughts and feelings from my actions. I may be doing something, and there will be in many cases an internal train of thought that's recognizing that there's something else important I should be doing (say, stop engaging with a hobby and go to sleep), and understanding and being alarmed of the consequences of not doing so, but even with that conscience desperately pleading to act on it, for whatever reason, there's a disconnect that makes it not persuasive enough to take action on. And so I stay up late, not wanting that and fully knowing it's a bad idea.

That tends to lead to a lot of mental anguish, and it did unfortunately eventually develop into a sense of futility for me. Because "learning from your mistakes" ends up being ineffective, since you can't use that knowledge to reliably persuade yourself anyway. Before that I instead was just constantly confused and disappointed in myself for not being strong enough to resist it like I was always told I should be able to, if I really believed in it. I'm honestly still not sure which of the two is a better mentality to have, I'd say they both felt catastrophic or occasionally helpful for me at different times in life.
