Three or four for me. Or, however long since there was a jj introduction posted here that got some traction. The only person on my team who’s even aware is the one other person I converted. The interop is that smooth.

I feel like you and I must have the same taste in technologies. I got into Rails (and Ruby itself) around 2007 then fell in love with Rust around 1.0. Now here I find out you’re a jj convert too!

Oh yeah the death notices on the radio. I've never heard anything like that except in Ireland. I haven't thought of that in years.

I personally always found that so depressing. But I was very much out of sync there. Due to circumstances I ended up in rural Ireland for a while but I'm a very cosmopolitan person so that didn't work out at all. I need the world, big cities, things to explore. This kind of phenomenon was a reminder of the small size of the community I lived in which depressed me deeply :) I do understand it has value to local people who enjoy life that way.

It was a very unique way of using radio though.

I don't think that would help anything. If someone unauthorized uses the lane, what should happen? Trucks just crash into them? I don't think that will work. If they're using a lane in a road, they'll still have to solve the full hard autonomous driving problem. So then, what's the point of the lane at all?
Speaking of half-baked, did continuations get fixed?
Culture is made, it's not accidental.

I would raise all these issues and more in group meetings. Try to get people to understand the many different benefits review brings to both the committer and reviewer - by having them state the benefits they want or could see getting. Talk about various kinds of comments (clear bugs, performance, style, robustness, factoring and organization, etc.), and the various priorities from no-action-required to nits to blockers. Talk about the priority of reviews themselves. Reducing the latency of reviews has a huge positive effect, ime.

"Immune. Immune, immune, immune."

You forced me to not actually read the dissent but to CTRL+F "immune,", because I couldn't believe a person/demigod serving in such an incredibly honorable and powerful position would ever write a rant with the same word 4 times in a row.
I was thinking this when I first read about the conveyor belt proposal. Years ago, Japan cut down on the hours drivers could do because many were driving too many. So, they tried to get more drivers by making it a career path for more people. Getting licensed to drive and having a life situation where you can be on the road for days is something very few have the ability to do. Add to this the population shrinkage and aging which further hinders this. I can honestly say that this is probably the only solution that will work for this problem. As for rail freight, I think it would be a good idea but as seen with recent linear rail it may be difficult to get anything that would be purpose fulfilling in this regard (yes, Japan has commuter trains but those rails are painfully busy so moving freight is getting more difficult).
The article explains this concern:

> One example not relevant to this case but which came up in arguments was the hypothetical payment of a bribe in return for an ambassadorial appointment.

Under Monday’s decision, a former president could be prosecuted for accepting a bribe, but prosecutors could not mention the official act, the appointment, in their case.

So, imagine:

Prosecution: You took a bribe!

Defense: Bribe? No! It was just a gift.

Prosecution: It preceded the intended action, so it WAS a bribe.

Defense: What action?

Prosecution: Oops.

What makes a cargo belt more appealing/better than trains or canals? Just that it's ostensibly more automated and ostensibly needs less maintenance?
>but JR shinkansen and other operators use standard.

That's irrelevant. The shinkansen tracks cannot be used for cargo trains: they're exclusively for high-speed passenger trains.

You can't share tracks between slow cargo trains and high-speed passenger trains. Not only is the scheduling impossible, but the cargo trains would ruin the tracks. The shinkansen tracks require frequent and thorough maintenance to keep them at the level needed for reliable high-speed service.

If you want to see what happens when you try to share tracks between cargo and passengers, just take a look at Amtrak. It's a complete disaster.
Qt's moc can already be replaced and it increasingly is being relied on less and less as time goes on but dropping moc requires dropping all lower C++ standards or maintaining separate moc and modern-c++ versions.

And while it can currently be replaced with templates alone in fairly old versions of C++ (C++14 is the oldest I think), compile times are egregious unless you use very new, shiny features.

And as much as I am pro "move to new shiny C++", one of the big commercial uses of Qt is in semi-embedded applications like car entertainment centers where you are stuck with whatever (often outdated) toolchain your SOC source relies on. So pushing for shiny new Qt risks either splitting Qt in half or abandoning a lot of very well paying users.
That works great in a setting where you are both employees of the same company, and you respect each other, but it often doesn't work in the open source world, people just disappear and you never hear from them again. It is possible that they do file follow-ups, but in my experience it's rare.

The article is misleading, I've read the actual report in Japanese. It's not trying to built Tokyo-Osaka conveyor belt, too expensive, too close the the realm of sci-fi.

What they're trying to do is to use the current trucking between metropolitans -Japan is not eager to just "erase" jobs - then switch to the conveyor belt system connecting into the city. What' they're trying to build, are these switch hubs and the underground conveyor system.
Show HN: I gamified a productivity app to make achieving goals fun
Hey all,

In my journey of trying to be more productive, I looked into finding a productivity tool that would work for me.

However as I was going through the plethora of tools online, I found that none of them could keep me motivated enough to use them long-term.

There were 2 main issues: 1. The app itself was boring and 2. Usually the rewards system wasn't any good

At the end of the day, I made a product to solve my own issue, but I hope it might help someone else out there as well.

a thing I learned recently is that we are _already_ using hydroelectric power to balance out solar power - apparently with existing dams it's possible to dial down the flow in the daytime and dial it up at night. As more solar energy comes online, this becomes a natural consequence of energy markets

We’ve had children longer historically than conveyor belts. Therefore we need more children and not belts if we, as people, want to leave a legacy of humans instead of a legacy of literal actual real life conveyor belts.

Also, this is just one symptom. If the only problem of humans being/needing to be replace by conveyor belts than, yay. Ok, maybe. But I think it’s more like the bubbles underneath paint of your ceiling or that mud tube on the outside of a house. It’s a warning sign of what’s to come and not the finality of consequences.

Or maybe not, this article didn’t speak about any of that but I’d wager a 41% transport shortage is big problem for food/medicine/toilet paper etc which can only lead to problems as we just recently experienced with Covid and civil unrest. I’d also be willing to bet this will be problematic for things like house and goods price stability, hospitals, schools, whatever kind of public works they have and societal fall nets, and what about the really crappy jobs people want to do less than trucking? The exceptional quality of life that many of our countries from which we post are only possible by the lowest rung of ladder holding it all up.

Not to mention that on the whole of it humans are good! We love, love, create, invent, hack, explore. Yeah there’s bad stuff too but I think the extreme comfort in which many of us finds us helps to numb us the goodness around us and we just get a thrill from the bad.

At least that my argument to your stated questions and implied construction. Ie why did we need all those humans anyways, they were unnecessary and a drain. Excuse me if I assumed the later.

Anyways, that’s just, like, my opinion man so maybe I’m wrong.
In my experience, code reviews catch a lot of bugs. However, if you find yourself catching the same kind of bugs over and over again in review you should be finding ways to catch them automatically without involving a reviewer (static analysis, tests, linters, etc.)
But if one overthrows the government via official acts, then one enjoys absolute immunity.

For example, the president can deem opposition party leaders to be terrorists and then in an official capacity order them to be assassinated by the SEALs. He can grant blanket pardons to everyone involved while he himself enjoys absolute immunity for his official acts.

The Senate will never be able to impeach or convict you when you’ve killed off those who would do it.

This ruling makes the president a temporary dictator, and it’s reeeeeally easy to go from a temporary dictator to a lifetime one.

It's not that hard. Give CDW a call. You'll need to setup a volume licensing agreement, which means buying at least 5 licenses, but there's some $10 licenses you won't use if you need filler. Also, this is an upgrade license, you need an underlying windows license on each PC to upgrade it.

Too much $ for me, I'm just using home/pro.

Signal handlers are not threads. Rust doesn't have anything that expresses the special extremely restrictive requirements of signal handlers.

A safe-Rust thread-safe Send+Sync function is allowed to call `format!()`, or `Box::new`, or drop a `Vec`, all of which will directly cause the exact same vulnerability as in SSH.

There is nothing in Rust that can say "you can't drop a Vec", and there are no tools that will let you find out whether any function you call may do it. Rust can't even statically prove that panics won't happen. Rust's panic implementation performs heap allocations, so any Rust construct that can panic is super unsafe in signal handlers.

I’d say if your team have any seeds of really good ideas, don’t work on them at the work hackathon. Don’t work on them at work, period.

Choose the least crap option and work on that.

It seems like a canal with a current could have unmanned pods that behave like items on a conveyor belt. My best guess as to why a cargo belt is that maybe conveyor belts could handle slight elevation changes better than a canal.
Basically, code reviews also happen to find a lot of other non-bug stuff (probably nits and style issues).

That's why looking at % is dangerous. You could be finding 5 bugs per code review, which is a lot, but if you also make 30 other non-bug comments, suddenly "only 15% of comments are bugs".
Hehe thank you I’ll edit that.

Guess I can’t. Either way, same sentiment stands. Fuck these people.

Javascript is a funny one.

Javascript being an open standard meant there were no barriers to re-implementing them on alternative browsers. So when Internet Explorer started to lose its throne to Chrome and Firefox, Javascript survived while VBScript did not. When Apple decided to introduce webkit but not Flash to iOS, Javascript survived while Flash did not.
> why not

Yeah, it seems this would hinge on whether it was done to protect democracy (official duty?) vs win an election (not but who knows by now). If Biden gives up on running anyway, that removes that question. Then it may not matter much because it's not clear which testimony, recording or other evidence might be admissible where. Then it may not matter because the issue is not even whether that would be illegal or not - just whether the president would have immunity in case it is illegal - and there is evidence - and someone attempts to charge something

Interesting rough overview of that question is here:

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/seal-team-6-assassination-hy...

Some positions seem more absurd than the usual. For example someone argues "SEAL team 6 would obviously not accept that illegal order" Which seems irrelevant every which way: presumes it's illegal and focuses too much on this one specific example. And accepts SEAL Team 6 for more than a meme - there are obviously lots of outfits other than that one.
The struggle with teaching children programming is very real. I think a major issue is that we're often too quick to jump into abstract concepts without laying a strong foundation in the basics. In my experience, kids (and adults alike) need to see the concrete, step-by-step process of how a program works before we can start abstracting away. The "what's going on under the hood" questions always come when the program is broken and you need to debug.
It's been this way for a while. Someone once made a post saying "Christianity is a perfectly peaceful religion and has met benefitted historical society" and then someone replying with "They genocided countless people and nations" would then get a "this is against site rules'.

Stop the insanity. He only has immunity for official acts as determined by lower courts. The Supreme Court decision is largely a punt back to lower courts but affirms that a president cannot be indicted for acts after leaving office if those acts were committed while in office and an official act as determined by a federal judge.
You're making a lot of positive-upsided assertions about code review. My point is there is too much opportunity for negative behavior. It's the same as everything in tech, in life, "It can be good if everyone does their part to keep it good". And yet, most don't.

Yes, it is a bit of a silly name, because if you actually go to the Outback, you won't find many Subaru Outbacks there, because they aren't actually designed for those conditions. What you will find, is heaps of Toyota Landcruisers and Nissan Patrols, which are.

I read in a book once that the zone 10-20 minutes before sleep where you're kind of transitioning is a kind of altered state of consciousness, and that Edison used to utilise this by, during working sessions, sitting in a chair with a glass bottle in his hand and dozing off to sleep. He'd make progress in his thinking in this "special zone", keep moving through it to sleep, drop the bottle, smashing it on the floor at which point he'd be awoken and would bring back what he'd achieved into the "real world" and press on.
Don’t make assumptions about what non-voters prefer. Lower propensity voters lean right these days: https://hbstrategies.us/trumps-non-voters/ (“Within this lower propensity segment, the respondents favor Trump over Biden by 12 percentage points, 50-38%. The unit would prefer a Republican Congress by a 50-41% margin, and Republicans would enjoy the five point identification advantage.”).
How irritating. I thought that cognitve style was just being reasonably well read and not a pathology. I am also suspicious of why it might be considered a disability as that externalizes responsibility for ones path through life while centralizing these advocates and activists and their critical frameworks. Worse, it legitimizes these advocates as peers to some rarely gifted people and infantalizes their talents vs. the sort of unctuous political maneouvering theorists trade on. If I had gifted children, I would learn to identify these snakes and keep them at bay.
They have the same problem in America too. There's very good reasons for this:

1. Truck driving requires extensive (and expensive) training and licensing. You can't just hire some immigrants to do it for you. Driving such a large vehicle on narrow, crowded roads requires a lot of skill and training, and is very dangerous. This creates a large barrier of entry into the career. Who's going to pay for this training? 1.a. With immigrants, how do you train them when they don't speak the language? And if you train them in another language, how do they function when they can't talk to anyone they work with (customers), or the occasional police interaction? Are you suggesting that Japan needs to pay immigrants to go to language school for 2 years before starting truck-driving school? This career isn't that highly-paid.

2. Truck driving is hard on your body, particularly your back. Check out American truck drivers nearing retirement age and look at their general health.

3. Truck driving usually takes you far from home for long durations (probably not quite as bad in Japan since it's a smaller country than the US). Most people want to go home to their families after work.

Face it: truck driving is a shitty job. The more it can be replaced with automation, the better.
