With over 8 years of experience as a Software Engineer, I've expertise in backend development, clean code principles, and the writting of robust test suites. Throughout my career, I've demonstrated ease for quickly learning of new languages and technologies, enhancing code coverage, and improvement of deployment pipelines. I've led technical initiatives that significantly reduced integration times and boosted production deployments. Among my experiences I worked with a lot of technologies, including Java, C# and Javascript, in cloud platforms like AWS and GCP. I like to contribute in dynamic environments, collaboration and knowledge-sharing while delivering impactful solutions aligned with business objectives.
They're still sentient though so to fully maximize the function value, you'd need braindead animals, or better yet, muscle cells formed into common cuts of meat.

They might be busier if they can take a high speed train directly between Bakersfield and LA, though.
Instead of taking the time to reply 'huh' multiple times, you should make sure you read what you're replying to.

For example:

> Huh? Exploiting an unpatched vulnerability on a server to get access to a user account is.. very rare?

The 'this' I refer to is very clearly not what you've decided to map it to here. The 'this' I refer to, if you follow the comment chain, refers to a subset of something you said which was relevant to your point - the rest was not.
That's true but you definitely don't need to understand it first.

Well, except for the webserver with nginx or apache, correctly configured with SSIs enabled. It's not terrible -- but not 'obviously' less complex than using e.g. 11ty (a static site generator) + uploading to an s3 bucket or FTP server. Just trading off complexity in one place for complexity in another.

A sibling (top-level) comment suggest a standard HTML templating (or SSI) language that many static hosts would support. I like that idea quite a bit conceptually, though of course much easier said than done.

Email: in résumé

Hi! I'm Morgan, a full-stack software engineer currently in Harrisburg, PA. I enjoy puzzles and am passionate about design and breaking down complicated problems. I also enjoy rock climbing. :)

Most recently, I built Reverb (https://reverb-app.github.io/), an open-source, asynchronous, event-driven workflow engine that reliably orchestrates complex background sequences. You can think of it like a lightweight Temporal with a higher emphasis on developer experience.

I would love to hear rom you if you think I would be a good fit for your team!
I’ve been wondering how snails fit into this. I know they have some higher calcium needs, but their carbon footprint per gram of protein is a fraction of chicken. Granted, I know most of their flavor comes from the butter and garlic they are cooked with, but speaking as someone who likes escargot, why is the focus always on crickets? What is the missing piece?
I made a free project at http://docbits.io/ so i could include external things in html, markdown, css, etc.
The Curry-Howard Correspondence is more of an observation than a theorem, but insofar as it describes the general concept of relating logics and programming languages, what is the CHC for logic programming languages? If strikes me that LP directly instantiates and manipulates logical expressions, in a "self-dual" sense; or, is it that the various "proof procedures" of the logic side map to "proof search" algorithms on the computing side?
I think it would be self-damaging not to.
Yes, humans are omnivores. Meat is a natural component of our diet.
> I think "trust, but verify" (as mentioned in the article) is a much more useful motto than "never trust anyone". The latter isn't an useful attitude, if you took it seriously you would have carefully check or rewrite everything from the ground up.

Not actually. You're describing an abstraction: your opinion/perception of what must/can be done.

It is possible to be comfortable with uncertainty and the unknown (everyone already is, but only in certain, intuitive (in large part due to cultural conditioning, which comes in a variety of forms) ways), it's mainly just counter-culture and counter-intuitive, thus needs strategies, and practice(!) (plus some non-trivial multi-level, multi-dimensional recursion....this is what us HN folks are good at, and love though, right? Right?[1]). We've all been through the hard work at least once, in a certain (mostly) shared way. There are other ways though.

> "Trust, but verify" is much more practical

How do you verify your verification in complex scenarios though? I bet I know: trust/contentment (in your verification skills), though this layer typically is not revealed to us, so causes no psychological unrest ("all is well"), because it does not exist.

> Don't be paranoid.

What do you think your reaction would be if you discovered this is not just wrong, but backwards?

[1] Alternatively: maybe we are only good at it, and only love it, sometimes? But then, "we" is a complex and deep set, into which we have little insight, but also plenty of hallucinated "insight".
> And you don't actually pentest the software which those users on the windows machine are using on the Linux systems?

You really love your assumptions, huh?

> it's just a "well, I got access, nothing more to see!"?

I said nothing like that, and besides that, if you were not just focused on arguing for the sake of it, you would see MY point was about the infrequency of the situation you were talking about (and even then your original point seemed to be contrarian in nature more than anything).
Already a big thing. See the constellation architecture used here:

> Writing the GUI part of the program should not take more time than the actual functionality

I can't stand this mentality. The GUI is your functionality. The rest as far as the user is concerned may as well be pixies and fairy dust. Treating UI as an afterthought is why we've ended up with so much nightmarish crap these days.
There is no soil on Mars either. There are rocks, dust, and sometimes ice. And my point is that Mars is many times worse than a combination of Antarctica and Mt Everest.

RQ: Simple Job Queues for Python
you've had rib-eye from a lab?
To further problematize this question (which I don't feel like I can actually answer), consider this paper: "Transformers are RNNs: Fast Autoregressive Transformers with Linear Attention" - https://arxiv.org/pdf/2006.16236

What this shows is that actually a specific narrow definition of transformer (a transformer with "causal masking" - see paper) is equivalent to an RNN, and vice versa.

Similarly Mamba (https://arxiv.org/abs/2312.00752), the other hot architecture at the moment, has an equivalent unit to a gated RNN. For performance reasons, I believe they use an equivalent CNN during training and an RNN during inference!
I think it’s the establishment democrats that benefit most. Social media has been targeting left extremists alongside right wingers for a long time. The less exposure progressives get, the less red meat the establishment needs to throw to them.
> If I address PR comments, such as typos, simplifying logic etc, this is just noise that doesn't need to be in any history, except maybe for a deep dive by looking at the PR itself.

Read the rewriting tools references in the text.

> Yet the article seems to be arguing otherwise and suggesting we use tooling to solve a problem that we don't even have.

Read again about the debugging tools mentioned. I never saw a code that needed some kind of debugging. Keeping the history clean makes the debug easier.

You could also say the same about tests. Tests don't solve any problem as long as the code works. But if it doesn't work, test will help to quickly find out where it is broken.

Otherwise, you have no benefit of squashing. If you don't see the benefits of having a commit history, you can use Google Drive instead.

> We enforce squash commits when we mere PRs to master, and we never have any issues with it.

Just because you never had doesn't mean that they don't exist. If you saw it at least once, it means that it exists. I saw it once, and I related here: https://lucasoshiro.github.io/posts-en/2024-06-27-squash-sub...

I think I was never able to keep Jekyll working for more than six months before it broke down beyond repair.

Today there's also gojekyll (which is a single binary).

https://github.com/osteele/gojekyll
I was forced to buy one against my will. The new models are significantly better than they once were and it feels like a regular bed now rather then two air mattresses with some loosely arranged foam dividers. They've dumbed down the app and made the data reporting worse but it used to give decent stats on breath and heart rates.
Or buy fewer clothes, reduce unnecessary plastic (my bananas don’t need to be individually wrapped), use public transportation etc.

Yes, this. Ideologies follow demographics of likely voters, that's it. They're the worm on the hook, not the objective.
I'm very sorry, yes, you are right of course the load is still there. I was so fixated in producing a minimal test case that I failed to interpret the result.

Now I'm not able to reproduce the issue with a guaranteed UB. I still think the loop variant shows the same problem though.

In any case, yes, according to the C standard a volatile read counts as an observable side effect.
How was that? I started watching it, but I found the wool book way too oppressive and bleak, so I couldn’t bring myself to watch the show.

My conspiracy brain thinks part of the reason for the red hat acquisition was to funnel disgruntled IBM i customers into that while bleeding the platform dry.
One thing I remember hearing about in 2020 was that large ships moved away from high sulfur fuel. This meant that suddenly their fumes were seeding fewer clouds over the ocean and consistently clearer skies were seen immediately afterwards. It was a big affect in the Atlantic and contributed to a degree or so more heating.

Surprised I haven't heard more about it as it seems like it could have huge implications for climate change.
There is evidence of vegetarian communities and tribes too though:

emacs-bindings to run alias/macros of sed script(s) that perform equivalent emacs functionality would allow for editing/manipulating a given file(s) without displaying file to screen (unless requested).

Not user interactive friendly though.
I’ve come around to the idea that checksumming isn’t some universal panacea. Once you have checksums, you need to start thinking about error *recovery* and not just detection. What happens to linked data? Do you just declare the whole SQLite file corrupted and just throw up your hands?

If you have backups, that’s one obvious solution, but people might not have uncorrupted backups.

I still think you should do it and emit a warning about it at the very least, but it’s not trivial to handle.
> I believe it is almost certain that we will make something like this and that they will out-compete us. The bigger problem here is that too few people believe this to be a possibility. And when this becomes certainty becomes apparent to a larger set of people, it might be too late to tone this down.

I think the bigger problem is that too many people are focused on short term things like personal wealth or glory.

The guy who make the breakthrough that enables the AGI that destroys humanity will probably win the Nobel Prize. That potential Nobel probably looms larger in his mind than any doubts that his achievement is actually a bad thing.

They guy who employs that guy or productionizes his idea will become a mega-billionaire. That potential wealth and power probably looms larger in his mind than any doubts, too.
Another option is having the site generator packaged as a docker image and executed via a CI pipeline when the static files are pushed to a git server. Relying on stuff installed on a local laptop for the publishing pipeline isn't sustainable.
I'm a fan of a self hosted web service bound only to localhost, then you serve a HTML with all the bells and whistles from that web service. I think they used to call it OWIN.
I guess the major downside is that you might get a localhost cert warning if you don't install a self-signed cert and a root cert in the PC's cert store (which yes, yikes)
I do this with JS, which I know isn't great practice but works pretty well.
It’s still Newton’s third law; Push air down and minimize pushing air sideways or in swirling vortices because pushing air the wrong way wastes energy as per newtons law.

That’s what the aerofoil does. It pushes air down but mimimizes wasting energy on drag. It’s still newtons law.

As Thomas Sowell once wrote, "There are no solutions, only trade-offs."
I did (still do) this for years but it just feels... wrong. I recently hand built a personal site and used JavaScript to insert the html header/footer. Not great, but it worked.
People who care about the moral aspect already don't eat meat

People who only care about the ecological aspect don't care about killing more animals

Also, how do you even quantify that ?

Is killing 30 cage raised chicken better or worse than killing a single grass fed free range cow ?

"Hourly Rate: 12€" "8YoE"

No. Just no. Please don't let yourself get scammed, if anything you're hurting your chances of finding work by underselling yourself.
So..."I know you're wrong but I can't/won't say what about, how or why I know it, or otherwise back up my claim"?

This sounds like just another way of saying "I don't like your conclusions, but I can't see a good way to refute them."
Side note, but I was looking for a pre-built binaries in releases of LLVM project. Specifically I was looking for clang+llvm releases for x86_64 linux (ubuntu preferably) in order to save some time (always had trouble compiling it) and to put it into my own `prefix` directory. It's kind of wild to see aarch64, armv7, powerpc64, x86_64_windows.. but not something like this. I am aware of https://apt.llvm.org/ and its llvm.sh - but as I said, I'd prefer it to live in its own `prefix`. Anyone knows where else there might be pre-builts? There used to be something just like that for v17, like https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/releases/download/llvmo...
Your web server probably has Server Side Includes. No need for an SSG.
All of life is full of tradeoffs.

That's just the basic human condition.
Ah, that makes sense. So, we consider two hidden layers more as "memory" or "buffers", and actually the rule is implemented in just one layer, at least for a single token.
> Then once approved, we click the "squash and merge" button, and github squashes all that useless noise into a single commit on master for us.

This is not what squash is. I suggest you to read again the section "What squash merge actually is". tl;dr: "Squash merge is the same as the true merge but with a missing information: the reference to the merged branch."

> We don't have any complaints about this workflow.

Repeating the same answer: Just because you never had doesn't mean that they don't exist. If you saw it at least once, it means that it exists. I saw it once, and I related here: https://lucasoshiro.github.io/posts-en/2024-06-27-squash-sub...
