I use a similar pattern in my typescript code by using the Remeda library[0]. Like the patterns described in the article, the util functions can be used in both a one-off data-first way:

R.map(arr, (x) => x + 1)

and as part of a pipe in a data-last way:

R.pipe(
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6],
R.map((x) => x + 1),
R.filter((x) => x % 2 === 0),
R.take(1)
)

I've really enjoyed using it and would recommend it to anyone who would like to write their typescript in a more functional way.

This seems to be the case for 99% of people I've noticed worrying about types for Elixir.

I've worked with a wide spectrum of type systems and none of the things that caused issues for me due to typing in large JS or Ruby projects ever did in Elixir. The schema-based structs and pattern-matching make a huge difference. I don't feel quite as confident of a poorly tested Elixir code base as one written in Rust, but I'd take it over one written in TypeScript or Obj-C any day of the week.
Thats a good point - I don't play with that variable that much. I did a crossfit really late (for me) at 20:00 the other day, and was almost too excited to sleep.

Sounds like the UK too. All my school friend doing non-STEM courses would ask me how many "contact hours" we had per week.

I can't remember exactly how many, but once you included lectures, scheduled labs and tutorials, was not that far from 9-5 (minus the standard university-wide Wednesday afternoon sport slot).

The friends would go quiet and say "oh, we have 12".

And that didn't even incude the "non-contact" hours in the labs grinding the coursework until security shooed us out late at night so they could lock the building. Good times (in retrospect, especially).

Expect the U.S. Dollar to lose reserve currency status faster than expected to the Yuan. This can be seen in the Treasury market and with other nations going around sanctions or avoiding future sanctions.

For a petrodollar specifically, or petroyuan in the future, the idea could be that the largest manufacturer is going to be the largest consumer of energy for manufacturing. In the past this was the United States which is why the Saudi petrodollar, while overhyped, made sense after the Nixon shock.

China has played a key role using its increasingly gold backed currency to settle transactions for sanction reasons and is expanding it to others.

It will take time for this change to happen and before long it will be interesting what kind of result this has on funding U.S. Govt debt, if more business is done in yuan than the dollar. All it will take is China loosening controls.

The other reason the dollar has been so resilient has been the U.S. Navy providing the backbone to defense agreements. Now China also has a comparable number of ships that will move out of the South China Sea and play an international role with a yuan reserve currency, this advantage isnt what it used to be.

Lots of public housing of a decent standard.

The problem is that people, unless they can afford to buy, are forced into renting from a private landlord and working to pay off someone else's mortgage. If you have enough livable public housing such that anybody who needs a place to live can get a place on the public system, the power balance changes and private landlords aren't so much of a problem.
Are you still operating on a single stream of characters? I was wondering about something more radical, like you start in the middle of the stream, and one thread parses the forward to the end, and the other parses backwards towards the beginning.
What people dislike I think isnt actaully the act of being a landlord, but the land speculation that most landlords partake in. Clearly providing homes to rent is valuable to society, the problem is that a huge part of the landlording business is waiting for the value of the land to increase, which obviously pisses people off as they see the landlords getting something for nothing. The alternative is land value tax which makes land essentially worthless because the government captures most of its value, destroying the ability to speculate on it.
This is exactly what was done with the Landlord's Game (now known as Monopoly).
If the government is passing laws that strongly incentivize censoring speech they don't like, then the government is engaging in unjust censorship, even if "officially" the speech in question remains legal. And it's our business as citizens when our governments act in a tyrannical manner.
It not changing is not an indication of its adequacy. It’s merely an indication of backwards compatibility and lock-in effects. It’s not practical to change it even if we did have something better.
Stephen King, to me, suffers from the exact opposite.

His short stories are amazing and right to the point, but most of his novels are filler and would probably work better as short stories. In novels King has to answer questions he can skip in short fiction which is why his novels always end so unsatisfactory ('it was aliens all along!').
> Cstomers only want 3 things. A comfortable ride, a safe journey, and $thing. The problem is, everyone's one more thing is different. I want DAB radio, you want cruise control, she wants lane assist, he wants automatic parking.

Every car has a radio. And DAB support has no real effect on cost and I don't think the radio chip is what OP has in mind for "low tech".

The rest of that has a very clear divide. Cruise control is low tech and negligible cost, especially on an electric vehicle. Lane assist and automatic parking are high tech and need pricey extra parts to implement.

And this logic doesn't explain why plenty of low tech non-electric cars exist.

Someone else already replied about how the examples you gave changed to add flashy high tech stuff.

I still feel like my point is being lost.

A generic contact identifier that you’re only going to show to other humans can of course be a string. People can put whatever they want in there. But it won’t be useful for automation or other kinds of processing.

If you’re going to actually use the number in any kind of automation, including tel: urls, it’s better as an integer because then you’re forced to process the incoming number properly before you put it in the database.

In terms of E164, You’re not ever going to store numbers like 911 in a database of phone numbers that you’ll plug into automations.

The whole point of E164 is to normalise the international numbering system. Why would you not use the international telecommunications standard for numbering, to store telephone numbers that are intended to be used to contact people?

It’s the same as storing an IP address as a string. Sure, you can do it, but why? The only possible outcome is that you will eventually store useless strings that aren’t actually valid.

Of course the tel: url scheme can support E164 numbers. I mean unless your app is limited to only a single geography, why would you even want it to be local only?

> Also, with a license like this it's not accurate to say "Paramount - an Open Source package..." - that's a misuse of the term.

It’s not free and open source software (FOSS) that’s for sure. The GPL can’t be used like this, were it so simple plenty of others like Redis or Elasticsearch would have done so. This license is worse than no license.
The US has frozen national assets before, most notable Iran but the big difference this time is that the US is now openly considering confiscating those assets and giving them to another country just because it has the ability to do so. Even Iran, who for decades was considered part of the "Axis of Evil" had its frozen assets kept in reserve until they were eventually given back. It really feels like the powers that be are now people who have no consideration for anything they can't see past the horizon and have unwavering faith that "it'll all just work out in the end somehow". They're becoming reckless on so many levels and unfortunately the public, or at least the loudest voices, are happy to cheer them on.

Even if the US ultimately doesn't turn over Russian assets to Ukraine, just making the threat to do so is globally destructive to faith in the current system that greatly benefits the United States.
Those assets are merely 'frozen' currently, all that was approved to be spent is some of the income.

If all those other solutions are better, why does the article say this:

And did Microsoft advise those other solutions prior to Solarwinds happening?
I've seen some communities thrive for decades. Their success seems to come down to a few ideas:

Focus on the community itself, not on the people outside it. Underground is always defined relative to the mainstream, which isn't healthy for the community.

Don't give the original members any special status. They either fit in, or they move on.

The community must reinvent itself once in a while. The world moves on, and the original concept will eventually be obsolete.

Keep the key institutions non-commercial and under the control of the actual community. People trying to make money from the community are not a threat. Turning the community into someone's business is.
I don’t think it’s very good reasons. We could definitely have binary first serialization protocols and good tooling built into the browser. But no, we encode everything as text, even binary stuff as base64, and whack that into strings

OP's link should really include the full title:

Ikea’s boss solved the Swedish retailer’s global ‘unhappy worker’ crisis by raising salaries, introducing flexible working and subsidizing childcare

Cutting it off there just makes it seem like ikea thinks "more money = happy workers" when in reality it is more nuanced than that.
There's a parallel universe where the right person on the Google Chrome Network Tab team (or, earlier, the Firebug team) foresaw this a decade ago, and resolved: "we will make it possible for any developer to plug in a custom binary parser in the Network Tab, able to access setup files from the project at hand, and do so in a safe and sandboxed way that's easy to deploy to colleagues." Then a billion binary formats would have bloomed. But that's not the world we ended up in.
Irrelevant compared to logistics.

Russians are winning now because they've figured out logistics within 50 miles of their borders compared to earlier in the war. Still doesn't mean they can project globally, and everyone knows.

Every new team has to start somewhere; even SpaceX had to learn to crawl before they could walk, and that was with the benefit of decades of prior art to draw upon. It would be a shame if SpaceX became the last company to ever succeed at designing a rocket because no one after them would try.
Sure, if you want to take a purist stance, we should start by inventing a universe free of third parties, to borrow from Feynman.

Meanwhile, the goal of most of these private groups isn't to stick it to the man, or make sure all data is eternally private, but just to talk to each other in a non-public setting. It's OK to use a tool for that you haven't entirely built from scratch.

Most humans, your "the people" (really? in quotes? did you want to write sheeple?), care more about getting on with their life than absolutist stances. They notice just fine, and they adjust as much as they feel the need to adjust.
Perhaps use arguments instead of opinions.

Or take some guidance at the countries that already suffered Russia as a neighbor in the recent past.

It's a good question with no good answer.

Obviously, renting needs to be an option for those that actually want to rent because they don't expect to be somewhere on a long-term basis.

But rent-seeking (among other forms of treating real estate as an investment) is an absolute and utter cancer. Buying a house for the sole purpose of extracting profit makes you a financial vampire, as far as I'm concerned.

The problem is made worse by banks that don't trust you with a $2,000/month mortgage payment while the landlord will happily let you sign a $2,500/month rental agreement.

Look, housing can either be affordable, or it can be a form of investment. It's simply not possible to be both. Landlords are participating in the investment camp, which causes a negative effect on affordability.

What's the alternative? I don't know. But I don't need to have a solution in mind to point out the problem.
> Basic ICE cars are essentially sold at cost, sometimes as loss leaders, because the manufacturers make a long-tail of money supplying parts and maintenance for the cars over their lifetime

Not just that but fuel economy regulations, (like CAFE in the USA) mandated average fleet fuel economy that must be met for automakers to avoid fines. GM had to sell a bunch of Cavaliers to be able to sell a bunch of (profitable) Silverados and Suburbans. With hybrids and EVs these days, regulations no longer favor the small car.

Covid 0 right here.

I work in a medical practice staffed by sane people so we had excellent infection control and procedures from even before the pandemic, and just doubled down on it. I live on a farm in the middle of nowhere. I'm an introvert and seldom socialise. My SO is susceptible to respiratory infections which motivates me to keep as safe as possible.

I haven't even had a cold.
If "why there, and why at that time?" is a valid scissor, then it can't just apply to some scenarios and not others. It must be a universal scissor.

> An asymptomatic scientist walked to the Wuhan market, spent some time at one stall, and then went home. I find no improbable scenarios there.

Why there, and why at that time?

To me at least the probability of a virologist traveling to the wet market and then spreading the virus as if it were originated by zoonosis is strictly less probable than the scenario where it's simply zoonosis.
I dunno if it's the full list, but what appears to be at least a somewhat well populated list is here:

> Maybe it was because I was often writing multi-threaded shared-memory code in C++

I’ve been writing C/C++ for living for about 25 years, also often writing multi-threaded shared-memory code in C++. However, seems I worked on very different projects, because I think in very Rust-incompatible way.

Here’s an example. Quite often I need to compute long arrays of numbers, and the problem is parallel, like multiplication of large matrices. A good way to do that is slicing the output into blocks, and computing different blocks on different CPU cores, using OpenMP or some other thread pool. Different CPU cores need concurrent write access to the same vector, this is illegal in Rust.

> But in practice, you often want to minimize the use of actual pointers

In practice I often want actual pointers because graphs and trees are everywhere in computing. Many of them mutable, like DOM tree of this web page we’re visiting.

Pointer chasing is generally slow compared to arithmetic instructions, but much faster than hash maps which can be used to implement the same thing. A hash map lookup is chasing at least 1 pointer usually multiple (depends on the implementation), and before that spends time computing the hash.

> they encourage making many small allocations

Pointer and allocations are orthogonal. It’s possible to design pointer-based data structure like tree or graph where the nodes are owned by containers, as opposed to other nodes.
I sometimes woke up around 2AM and would have difficulty to fall back sleep. I then either did some coding or watched some movies and could fall back around 6AM. But then the quality was so bad that the whole day was ruined. I had no issue falling sleep for the first time so wondering if there is anything to do about it.
This same problem exists in other games, like Real Life, Capitalism, and Urban Living in the 21st Century.
> If you were the prime minister of Finland, why would you not do everything you could to join NATO and enter the mutual defense pact seeing how Russia behaves in Ukraine?

Yes. My whole position in this thread has been that countries tend to do things for the obvious reason, I'm not sure why people keep expecting me to disagree on points like that. Everyone wants to be in NATO. Even Russia probably wants to join NATO. But that doesn't change the fact that the US was provoking Russia by signing everyone up and the US acting on that expansionist urge in Ukraine seems to be the major driver of this war.
Hey now, Nintendo’s bucked that trend - the Switch is a disguised tablet instead.
> At what point would I try going to a psychiatrist to get some pills that make me sleep for 9 hours at a time to get "out of this loop"?

Don't assume you know what the treatment will be.

Go to a psychiatrist and tell them your issues. They'll run some tests to rule out any low-hanging physiological fruit like anemia and likely recommend getting a sleep study to rule out things like sleep apnea. From there, they'll narrow down the possible causes until they find a solution that will work for you. Might end up being garden-variety insomnia treatable with CBT for insomnia.

> Do we see any competition, resulting in lower prices, better terms of use for customers, or better quality software? Nope. Games are as expensive as ever, have even worse day-of-release bugs, more cheaters, and more microtransactions. Games are exclusive to one particular store either indefinitely or during the period after its release.

The gaming industry has enormous amounts of monetization and gameplay innovation, with the huge and vibrant middle that is disappearing from movies, books and music, so I have no idea what you’re talking about. It has never been a better time to find games.
