"Did you know that approximately 95% of ASML lithography systems sold in the past 30 years are still active in the field? As of the end of 2022, more than 5,000 of our machines are hard at work in chipmaking fabs globally – a feat made possible by the fact that our systems can be repaired, refurbished and repurposed throughout their life cycles. It’s all part of our commitment to supporting a circular economy in the semiconductor industry that reduces waste, adds value and lessens environmental impact."

"Currently there’s a growing market in the semiconductor industry for mature DUV technology solutions. Refurbished systems provide cost-effective options for chipmakers looking to scale up in that area."

That same 95% might have less than a thousand homeless people total and theres just too much park acreage for the few who might loiter there to ever dominate a park. Its a non issue.

I agree with this. I wonder what it would take to let R spread beyond its niche into a more popular data science language. My worry is that with polars coming along, Python is catching up where it's behind, and staying ahead where it is ahead.
It's 100% possible to base logic and proof theory off of set theory. For example, you can treat proofs as natural numbers via Gödel encoding (or any other reasonable encoding) and we know that natural numbers can be represented by sets in multiple different ways.

You may prefer type theory or other foundations, but set theory is definitely rigorous enough and about as "infallible" (or not) as other approaches.
That’s probably why they are asking.
Sounds like you need to practice breaking down the hated problems into smaller lovable chunks?
It's kind of like how people who are really, _really_ good at something approach it with a certain simplicity and straightforwardness. Superficially, it looks like how a novice would approach things. But look under the covers they are doing similar things but with a much deeper understanding why they are doing things that way.

Example, (1) You start programming with the simplest abstractions and in a concrete way. (2) You learn about all the theory and mathy stuff: data structures, algorithms, advanced types, graphs, architecture, etc. Eventually you become very skilled with these, but at a certain point you start to bump up against their limitations. Technical disillusionment and burnout may set in if you are not careful (3) You return to using abstractions and architecture that are as simple as possible (but no simpler), but with a much deeper understanding of what is going on. You can still do very complex stuff, but everything is just part of a toolbox. Also, you find yourself able to create very original work that is elegant in its seeming simplicity.

I've noticed the same thing in other fields: the best approach their work with a certain novice-like (but effective) simplicity that belies what it took for them to get to that point.

General comment: the README opens with

that replaces tables/joins with a lightweight semantic binding layer

But then the included example doesn't do any joins. :(

Similarly, the "Concepts" section of the documentation has a diagram about joins, but no code examples.

On a more-technical note, the generated queries seem to use a LOT of CTEs. While they aren't a strict optimization barrier in PG anymore, there are definitely situations where they'll fall back to materialization - and the generated SQL seems to commonly build a "all of the rows" CTE and then apply conditions in a subsequent one.
I'm guessing it's about the general rule of thumb that hw is faster than sw, and so can react to urgent situations in a timely fashion. As for why sw might be shorthand for consciousness: sw can modify itself (and thus react to strategic issues)

Frontend code can be easily bypassed or changed so you can't trust it to keep the state of your application in good condition. Nothing prevents me from picking the same username as someone else if there is no server-side code stopping it. Nothing prevents me from replying to a deleted comment if I don't check with the server.

That means that any validation that you do client-side you need to repeat server-side. Any business logic that you have client-side you also need to repeat server-side.

This does not compute. You say forward contracts are common but futures give you money today? Futures are standardised forward contracts, you don't get any money when you open them unless your futures are different than mine?

> And as a producer it's not just a hedge on price. What happens if your expect to yield 140 bushels of corn an acre, and only get 130? Your crop came in, so no insurance, how do you make up the missing bushels? You're buying those futures back or delivering the contract even at 10x the price.

Exactly right hence why I said 'some'? You hedge when you can to lock in e.g. aforementioned 30%.

Completely agree - but it isn't that complicated with futures. Now options...

> This is false. They can't buy things from American-dominated states, but that is also changing.

It has nothing about domination. This is a matter of having an international currency, and using it to do international trade.

Think about it for a second. Nothing stopped Russia from dealing with India, and Russia is selling Russia's oil to India in exchange for ruppees. That's fine for India, but Russia found itself with a massive volume of rupees without any way to exchange them for stuff it needs.

With an international currency such as the US dolar, Russia would be able to exchange them for anything at all, because that's the whole point of money. As barely anyone in the world deals with rupees, Russia either buys anything at all from India, which so far has been a no, or scratches off it's oil deals as a loss because not being able to buy anything with rupees is as good as giving their oil away for free.

I mean, a currency that no one uses is like buying arcade tokens: sure, you can play video games in the only store that accepts them, or you're stuck with a useless token thatyl you can't do anything about it as it is worth nothing.

And the brain-dead idea of complaining about arcade-dominated stores because you can't buy shit with arcade tokens is simply absurd. You're the one unilaterally trying to trade with a medium of exchange that no one uses. How is this anyone's fault other than yours?

> unlike TCP/UDP sockets, you don't have to be concerned about endianness because the bits never leave the machine

Why would you be concerned about endianness even if you're using TCP or UDP, if you control the protocol?

Little endian won; in 99.9% of cases there's no reason to use big endian unless you're implementing an existing protocol which explicitly mandates big endian. Doing something over the network doesn't magically make it better to use big endian, and the whole "network endian = big endian" is just silly.
a bit off topic, but I've spent a LONG time in front of a computer (going on 41 years of programming) and my wife is a compulsive knitter...

I'm not sure that we know the full story on RSI. It think that repetitive motion is necessary but not sufficient. I don't know enough to speak authoritatively on it, but here's my anecdote:

I've been compulsively in front of a computer since I was 6 writing code. I still write a lot of code, but also do a lot of analysis work and R&D designing algorithms, so if I'm not writing code, I'm still doing tons of modelling and other "computer work." I don't have any ergonomic setup or anything fancy. I generally just work directly on my laptop sitting on a crash pad couch (https://www.metoliusclimbing.com/crash-pad-couch.html). Basically, if anyone who studies ergonomics would look at how I work and probably have a heart attack.

My wife took up knitting as a stress reliever in grad school, and 25 years later if she's not working (on a computer), she's knitting (I have SO many hats!).

Neither of us have any symptoms or signs of even starting to get any RSI.

I spend a bunch of time rock climbing (hence the crash pad couch) and lifting weights, maybe that counter acts it? We have a very low inflammatory diet (I've seen about inflammation kicking off RSI and then it getting aggravated from there). I don't know.

I have no real idea, but give our lifestyles we should have some form of RSI if you listen to the prevailing theories. But we don't.

Not trying to suggest anything in particular as a reason, but just wanted to point out that RSI is not a given.

Mayhaps to you the practice is just normalized, whereas others don't see it the same way?
Well, I am French, so really my comments were factual and a history lesson, really... "Socialism" has a precise meaning, as described several times in my previous comments. Socialism isn't social democracy.

Socialism is a bad word in the EU for most people in Western Europe who have some perspective and understanding of what it means (again which is usually not the same as the parties that have "socialist" in their names advocate), and certainly for the people in Eastern Europe who actually experienced it firsthand.

Perhaps there is a generational issue as well. When I grew up there were socialist countries in half of Europe and the French Communist Party was good friend with them and the big guys in Moscow (You know, the capital of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics). Now, anyone under 35 was born after socialism disappeared from Europe so perhaps lack understanding, including that it is not a fairytale but an utter failure (hence shift away from it).
> The career accelerator people kill me. Honestly why do I want to hear from someone who's biggest risk was getting a job talking to people taking big risks.

Professional talking heads will always try to convince you they are needed.

It looks good for shareholder value for this quarterly report, when you stop giving big raises (no promotions) and when mobile talent resigns (no need to pay severance) both reducing opex.

The work they did in the previous quarter is being sold right now and driving revenue numbers up.

It's the work that they won't do next quarter that won't hit shelves for even longer that will impact revenue eventually that they're missing out on, but that isn't measured in their financials.
What mechanism would you guess they are using to exert this influence?

cool! most people don't want to pay scale for writers. indeed, LinkedIn, fivrr all have tech writers. monster.com might also still have some users. I usually shake down my personal network for FoaFs and friends of friend of friends. so don't underestimate an email blast to friends.

also, consider people whose last job wasn't writing, but have tech writing in their background. most of the ACS systems will screen them out, so I think you have to explicitly tell the ACS company gatekeepers them you're okay with people who might have done a stint in QA but want to get back to writing.
To be blunt, this seems like a lazy regurgitation of a tweet. There are lots of organizations out there doing really good work. Look at a couple of the Pulitzer winners from the last couple years for example:

- Lookout Santa Cruz was on the ground reporting during catastrophic flooding this year, including setting up a text message service to get information to people because the internet was unreliable: https://lookout.co/lookout-santa-cruz-wins-pulitzer-prize-fo...

This is the stuff you lose without journalism.

I think this leans on a thing that I think of as the "law of average quality." The belief that there's some mark, near the middle, and things below that mark are bad, and things above that mark are good. It's something that is only true if you're comparing things against themselves. If there are any external goals for the things being discussed, almost everything can be bad (and correspondingly, almost everything can be good.)

I feel like this thought process leads to the "worst possible category" containing 42k bridges. The construction of the categories was based around whether the bridge is safe, and this category says "the bridge is not safe." It's when you put it off long enough, and let the infrastructure deteriorate long enough, that you start going "which is the most unsafe though?" Or, "is a safety factor even necessary? They are by definition a >1.0 factor applied to what we think is safe." Then, "one in a hundred year events" or "once in a decade events." Eventually it's "hasn't collapsed yet!"

The fact that the list got that big means our problem isn't prioritization, our problem is failing to repair bridges. Commit to and budget for repairing 42k bridges, then prioritize where you start.

Agreed, I'm convinced there are two forces at work here (a little tinfoil hatty maybe, I'll admit):

- Local (city/state) governments who want to bring people into downtown areas to spend money are threatening to revoke tax breaks companies receive for having an office in their city/state.

- CRE lobbyists convincing city governments to do the above, threatening with a dystopian outlook of a downtown core riddled with abandoned buildings.
