What those people miss is that the productive part about dynamically typed languages isn't that you don't have to write the types, but that the types used by dynamically types languages are extremely ergonomic and can fit in many different contexts so you rarely get type errors.

Trying to write untyped dynamic code in a statically typed language thus just results in frustration, those languages were made to work statically and to throw a lot of type errors, they are horrible as dynamic languages.

Love it! I use something similar to remember long numbers. If a code or a pin has let's say 8 digits, I'm unable to remember it the normal way. So I remember the first digit in the inner voice, and the other 4 digits as a picture of the digits.
In my experience what causes the slowdown are the people who merged too early who then resentfully close the gap in front of them when people try to merge later than them, simultaneously increasing the likelihood that they’ll rear end the car in front of them and making it harder for the people trying to merge properly to do so.
seems like a possible solution could be pubic places (on the internet) that are not governed by engagement economics
Unfortunately SwiftUI heavily loads the type system in order to achieve its terse view builder syntax. So builds are really slow and the compiler very often just refuses to compile things and offers zero suggestions for fixes. I hate to say it but I think Apple made some fundamental mistakes here that are going to be hard to undo.
Have you ever heard of an AI Toolfinder?
I'm relatively new here, but I have a start-up idea and would love to get your feedback. AI is everywhere right now, and it feels like there are 1,000 new tools on the market every day. I enjoy exploring different tools, but it’s easy to get overwhelmed. Many websites list the best tools for specific purposes, but I find them too vague.

So, I thought a chatbot could be a great solution. You can chat with it, and it will recommend the exact AI tool you need based on your requirements. This way, the chatbot cuts through the clutter and suggests the perfect AI tool for you.

My team and I have been working on this idea for a while and have developed a prototype called Atlas. It’s still in its early stages, but it's already helpful for diving deeper into the AI world and discovering tools you might not have heard of before.

Please give it a try and share your feedback. Since Atlas is my first big project, I’d really appreciate any input you have. Thanks a lot and happy AI tool hunting!

Doesn't that just move the gap slightly? If anything, a tight squeeze should mean the gap behind them is even bigger than the gap that existed before.

Too bad that NLLB, despite being advertised as specialized translation LLM, doesn't work with Turkish - it generates rubbish like Google Translate, which doesn't make much sense.
I live in TR, but don't know Turkish :( I tried all major translators, for now the only option which performs well is ChatGpt. I created a custom GPT there, instructed it to be my translator, and that works so well, even recognizes poorly written messages without punctuation.
Anyway, this is just my observations. Best of luck with the app!
That would be an epic egg on NASA and Boeing's faces. Therefore, it'll never happen.
A few months ago Google suddenly emailed me saying they're changing my account region to Russia, the country threatening to invade us, and I couldn't figure out a way to do anything about it. It was quite insulting.

My theory for why is that I used a Finnish VPN, and Google famously uses outdated GeoIP databases which believed the IP to be in Russia, despite every other public lookup I could find saying it's in Finland. Whenever I would visit a Google site not logged in, it'd be served in Russian. So eventually they decided I must be Russian.

I'm sorry, but WebGL probably shouldnt be a requirement for your front page to display any content at all. I disable it for privacy hardening and switch browsers to opt-in. Additionally, low-power clients may struggle with rendering and sink battery in mobile devices.

I think it's important for a small minority of people. Most of the population does not give a second thought, as long as it doesn't affect their lives in an obvious way. Most people are fine sharing their data, if it leads to better more personalized ads, most people gladly share their personal information on social media.

Data privacy is of course very important, but not something the general public is super interested in.
Interesting article -- thanks for sharing!

I'm surprised though that the article honors and praises things while at the same time spelling them consequently wrong. One would assume they would at least spend the effort to keep the Umlauts.

Different engineers can have different interpretations of "right balance" -- and many of them may be correct. Which makes "better" again ambiguous.
There is webpack, it's bloated, tedious to configure, slow and does breaking changes in configuration with every version. Configuration is basically write only, then don't touch and hop it still works after minor upgrade. It does solve the whole development cycle from dev server with hot reload (which on a usual fe project is subtly broken half the time). Then there are wrappers for webpack to provide sane defaults to end user. Then there are library bundlers, which don't solve the same problem as webpack.

There is also vite which doesn't bundle for dev environment, but serves individual modules separately and is fast.

Why webpack is bloated you ask? Well, because there isn't single javascript, but a mixed bag of esm, commonjs, vue, ts, css, scss and whatnot used in a combination with one another (you can have a vue file which contains ts script and scss styles and a vue file with javascript which imports ts file and css modules). Webpack tries to solve all that, plus caching and developer webserver, but relies on plugins to do a lot of stuff. So yeah, dutch tape, a lot of.

Then somebody decides it's enough and tries to rewrite the whole thing is rust because it's faster and implements 80% of their own needs on day 1, but gets burned by the long tail of annoying issues.

Since it's not a product in itself, somebody has to sponsor it or make in-house thing and opensource. In-house mainters could move to a next bigcorp and the new shiny thing will not go forward with original vision and same enthousiasm.

So yeah, welcome to frontend. It's like linked lists, buffers or unicode in C, but with a complexity or a distributed org and trying to be as cool as erlang at the same time.
Yeah that is idealistic nonsense. If that was real, starvation and poverty would increase 10-100x.
What helps me in writing on complex things is introducing a concept with a simple (perhaps even slightly wrong) explanation when you need it, before explaining it in greater detail and clearing up any prior simplifications when the reader is able to grok it fully.

Not to take away from the excellent writing in your original essay!
Show HN: I made tool that let's you see everything about any website
Yes, it's open source: https://github.com/lissy93/web-check :)

Why I'm building this? There are a lot of tools out there for discovering meta and security data relating to a website, IP or server. But currently, there isn't anything that does everything, all in one place and without a paywall/ user sign up.

It's still a WIP, and I'm working on a new version, with some more comprehensive checks, so any feedback would be much appreciated :)
The upgrade to KDE 6 (and switching to Wayland) has been particularly painful for me lately. Lots of bugs and stuff not working correctly (like zoom).

Oh, for sure. Wholeheartedly agree. We are little by little eroding the foundations of an economic system which allows individuals to get recognized and rewarded for their hard work.

I may have not worded things well, I was trying to speak of modern 3D reconstruction methods, such as NeRF or Neuralangelo. I can see good uses for them, as I need to fool the senses reliably (participants will be taken to a VR world... mimicking a real place). But as many things in this field, the reality is that these methods aren't up to snuff. Still, it would be nice to be able to capture reality for non commercial purposes.

As for Polyhaven, haven't donated yet... but I hope to do so soon :)
LangChain tutorials be like:

Go to foo_website and put your credit card to get their API. Then go to bar_website, get their API. Then go to yayeee_website and get their API. Then go to...

But unironically.

I actually counted 4 APIs in some 'how to' article. I ended up DIYing that with 0 APIs.

Whoever got into langchain planted their APIs. That is why it sucks.

At CERN, back in 2000, Python started to slowly take over as the build scripts, something like scons, CMT was the name.

And as REPL for CERN libraries, instead of ROOT.

Unfortunately while Python has taken over Lisp's domain, we are still far from Lisp capabilities to generate native code.

EDIT: CMT docs are still around, https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/Main/LearningAthena
Dart doesn't get a lot of respect around here but after working with it every day for the last few months I've come to really appreciate how fast it compiles and reloads. It's a major productivity boost. Other comparably expressive mainstream languages are so much slower to iterate with.

Ignoring the fact that you're comparing a cloud storage client to what is essentially a kernel wrapper that all software depends on, you actually can remove glibc without breaking things. You just also have to install another libc (say, musl) and replace your software that targets glibc with software that targets musl, or install a glibc -> musl compatibility layer (gcompat).

So, yeah. If you actually know enough about libcs to want to get rid of glibc for a real reason, you can do it without breaking things. If you just want to go around and start deleting core system dependencies (which I think is very silly to put a cloud storage client in that bucket, regardless of the brand of cloud storage) without replacing them, then chaos seems to be the goal, and maybe order is the "broken" state for that machine :P

I left gmail for self-hosted email. I host a matrix server. I left reddit for Lemmy. I left Android for iPhone. These and many other decisions have been about increasing data privacy.

In a sense, I stopped working for a corporation and pursued my own life for similar reasons. If others are telling me what to do, I am being limited, because I have found my own ideas to be better. Instead of being bitter about that, it is better to execute on them.

In the pursuit of privacy, many other things snap into place. A questioning of authority. A questioning of how society is run. A tracing of the root causes. It becomes very clear the situation we are in on a planetary scale. That clarity spreads to a realization of the extremely limited and self serving ambitions held by those driving the collective human vehicle, whether corporate or government.

Long story short, yes, privacy affects my decisions, and it is one of many starting points to reach some obvious and inevitable conclusions.
Which begs the question: if the general public is not super interested in data privacy, is it still fair to call it very important?

80/20 rule.

The dumbest possible type inference algorithm...

let x = value; // typeof(x) is now typeof(value)

... covers 80% of the cases where you'd like type inference. I'd even argue it's way more than 80%.

Surprisingly, this is what C++ actually went for, and `auto` works just fine. Same in TypeScript - make a best effort guess from the value, fallback to `any` no value or type is given.

Having to write out a type every now and then costs me way less time than waiting for the compiler to finish playing minimax against itself in the latent space of all possible programs or whatever.

Your claim is very explicitly that people are unable to make healthy lifestyle choices. This claim is complete nonsense. Posting a list of vague reasons why people may choose to make unhealthy choices doesn’t support your central claim in any way.
If Starliner isn't cleared to return live humans, whatever contingency procedures they come up with can still be tested with a payload of station garbage. The ship can be flown remotely and is fully automated. Even if it doesn't bring its crew back (and they wait for the next Dragon) it can still yield a lot of data.

And, quite frankly, that it can still operate with all those leaks is a testament to good, robust, design.
Is there a guide for this you can point to? Exciting to hear, hope it works on older models.
More than privacy, I want safety. So, I don’t mind that much that Apple or Google got my home address details or bank cards: I know it’s very unlikely that those details will land in the wrong hands (i.e., illegal stuff). I know the data will be used for selling me stuff. I can live with that.

On the other hand, I don’t like to give my home address and or passport details to a random website (like airlines or shops) because I fear they will be sold (or stolen) and I may be in trouble.

It's about control - Huawei was taking over too much tech for the deep state's taste.

Deep state is bugging American devices so they have a very good reason to believe the other side is doing the same - evidence or not.

Unfortunately in this case, I think the deep state is really that dumb. They did not foresee the consequences. They expected Huawei to fade away with a whimper - and if you read the article, it was a pretty close call, so the expectation wasn't entirely unfounded.

Motive was curbing Chinese state actor influence and also industry, ie preventing Huawei from crushing Google or Apple. it's not very smart but it's kind of how they think about it.

On both sides, tech companies and state intelligence services are walking hand in glove. It's not about devices being bugged per se, it's about siphoning more and more data into their own data centers, controlling more and more of the info highways, and so on. Potential backdoors only play a very minor role IMO - anything can be backdoored these days, and state actors anywhere have the resources to get into anything.

It's more about the front doors, ie our chinese security camera talking to chinese servers... large scale data collection that's not hidden.
Same goes for javax -> jakarta since the handover of enterprise Java from Oracle to Eclipse.

That sounds pretty believable. I would imagine somebody in customer support would have noticed it sooner than a month and a half if all of the customers weren’t getting sim cards.
Because I notice that in a lot of everyday activities, people seem to favor convenience of privacy in many circumstances. Here are a few examples:

- let Google index your private emails
- share your shopping habits with reward point programs
- allow big phone providers to track your location
- post your life details on social media

I think it's important to point out that I don't think it's a black and white matter. You can easily care about data privacy in one sector but not at all in another part of your life. But I think it's a point worth discussing that when you ask people about data privacy in the abstract, most people will probably stress that it's very important. Yet in everyday life, we have stuff like the examples above, where people don't seem to put their money where their mouth is.

Are there any specific examples that you have in mind when you say "of course it affects decisions both personal and in business"?

I would expect businesses to be much more privacy aware than Joe Private.
