> If Node.js can run TypeScript files directly, then the TypeScript compiler won't need to strip types and convert to JavaScript

Node.JS isn't the only JS runtime. You'll still have to compile TS to JS for browsers until all the browsers can run TS directly. Although some bundlers already do that by using a non-official compiler, like SWC (the one Node's trying out for this feature).

> In Python, I've even heard of people writing types in source code but never checking them, essentially using type hints as a more convenient syntax for comments.

It's not just comments. It's also, like the name "type hint" suggests, a hint for your IDE to display better autocomplete options.
I had the exact opposite experience with them, and cancelled my card.

I returned something, and the company didn't credit the return. I rarely return things, and this was the only return I had ever had with amex. Amex asked if I had contacted the company, and I did, but following up was slow and involved tracing the package and verifying the signature. In the end the company didn't resolve it.

So then I contacted american express again and they did not process a chargeback. They said it took too long, even though I had done as they asked. I was really fed up with it, and disappointed because I thought they were different. So I could not in good conscience continue with them and cancelled my card.

Google Maps had a total monopoly and Google could have leveraged that in the competition between Android and iOS. Maybe they even tried asking Apple for a lot of money to be able to use it on iOS.

It takes years, even a decade to get maps to a good quality (Apple maps launched in 2012). So I think it's a good thing that Apple started early enough. I'm sure it's crazy expensive to build and maintain. Apple can fund it from iPhone sales, and ensure that their ecosystem has an alternative for Google maps.

I don't think it's meant to turn a profit, I think it's meant as protection of their iPhone revenue.
Turns out you can't project human values into a single (monetary) dimension...

The comment was US-specific. Similar doctrines are found though in Canadian, British, and continental European (though not so much in Scandinavian systems which often do allow totally one-sided contracts in the idea that promises are binding but with other limiting factors).

The idea in systems which have this rule is that contracts are exchanges of promises and there must be an exchange in order to be valid.

I do not understand how a voice assistant help with this, it has never worked for me. Seems like pretty hard things to do on the fly with recipes.

Weight to volume conversions are rare here but sure I do those on the fly so I guess it makes sense, do you really do you guys really do it that often? If you do extensive conversions of recipes you will need to get the ratios correct as well it is just not something I see myself doing with a voice assistant.

Nobody wants to go through building a list of common items. I would just leave the door and come back with my toilet paper, bought from the shop, 5 minutes later.

Also I don't understand that "let's order household stuff" online randomly and individually example. Sure sometimes you run out of something but I think it mostly happens to people like me who live in small places because we don't have the space to have 3 packs of 6 rolls of toilet paper. But usually people who live in small spaces are usually the ones living in high density places where small groceries shops are always available at walking distance. People who live in suburbs usually have enough storage space and do their shopping of houshold items once a month and never run out of anything.
I guess one point of the article is that eBPF-injected programs are another place where malware can hide. But then again, it's easy to list all currently loaded eBPF programs (well, unless there's a way to somehow hide/disconnect them, but keep them running).
This isn't about stock options or public markets. These kinds of companies are owned by the employees. You or I can not buy stock in them. This can be a much bigger incentive than regular options or the toilet paper options startups offer. Payout is over several years after you leave, so people care about the long term rather than next quarter. From your comment it seems you're not at all familiar with this model. It's not perfect but it's way better than stock options.

Windows is also compiled for ARM and Microsoft literally sells their own Surface Pro computers with ARM processors[0]. So this is a terrible analogy, for a lot more reasons than that. Rather than go through all the reasons it’s a bad analogy I’ll just get straight to NVidia’s long term moat:

NVidia has 6x the cash-on-hand (>$30B) than their closest competitor (AMD) ($5B), and all of that can go towards GPU R&D rather than being split between CPU+GPU R&D (AMD has 10% of the $65B GPU market share but 33% of the $50B CPU market share — their CPU business is almost 75% of their total business). If there are changes needed to stay competitive, NVidia has the warchest they need to adapt. Just their cash on hand would allow them to fumble an entire release cycle and still catch back up.

Sure, if ROCm ever achieves parity with CUDA then Nvidia’s margins will finally decrease but the only way they’re facing any existential threat is by massively fumbling internally. If you have reason to believe that Nvidia will start executing poorly, then that would potentially be a valid concern — but so far they’re continuing to do great work despite their massive lead and their prices reflect their technical lead over their competitors.

Thanks, I hadn't. Looking into it, I think Toon is asking the question:

Should the DBMS expose the raw storage operations (insert, update, delete) for the application to take the burden of correctness for their physical composition into logical functionality? Or should the DBMS export that logical functionality?

With TigerBeetle, we didn't want people to have to keep cobbling together their transaction processing system, to take that burden of correctness, but to solve this in open source, once and for all, for everyone to build around.
Do you feel that most posts are marketing slops nowadays?

IMO posts maybe but most comments still seem pretty legit and genuine. And I see a lot of mods work hard to remove comments or posts that seem to have ulterior motives.

I can set it to look at very old results but that means it'll be based on potentially outdated opinions. At least for the current category (portable monitors), the models improve pretty fast.
True and valuable design is timeless and smooth. It requires a lot of work and collaboration, which cannot be done using Figma.

To this day, the hidden elephant in the room for professional SaaS apps is breakpoints and the experience between them, including when and why to transition.

Figma supports the hyperactive single designer, not the ambitious industry designer who works on something that has stood the test of time for many years.

Apple has changed its UI twice since 2007, while Figma designers do it almost every day. I think there is a connection.

Great product leads understand that great design doesn't mean firing up Figma every day, but paradoxically doing the opposite. Consistency over time is a human condition.

That's a good comparison to add to the list for this topic, thanks. An example a non-techie can understand, where a client program is consuming data blobs produced by the creator of the program.

And great point that it's not just about crashing on these updates, even if they are properly signed and secure. What does this say about other parts of the client code? And if they're not signed, which seems unclear right now, then could anyone who gains access to a machine running the client get it to start boot looping again by copying Channel File 291 into place? What else could they do?

The sudoers example to me was the most illustrative.

Though it's still not exactly clear to me what the verifier intends to prevent. I can understand that it limits how far you can look up into the stack and what memory your eBPF program can read. But can we otherwise just run any random code in eBPF? The register value tracking and DAG stuff kind of goes over my head.

In short, could I write a Scheme in eBPF and pass it a program at runtime, through a map?

> The reason not every company does it to all its employees is probably that for those employees, it wouldn't affect incentives much and it would make payment subject to the vagaries of the stock market.

Pleast don't be so naive. The reason not every company does that is that giving ownership gives power and dilutes your own, reduces the chances at doing humongus profits that can be hoarded by a minority. Business owners are not operating out of sympathy for the workers, they are operating for themselves, by design
> You or I can not buy stock in them.

But that means employees cannot sell their stock, either. So if one of those millionaire employees retires and the company goes bankrupt one year later, the million is worthless all of a sudden.

To be fair, Amazon didn't create this.
Even supermarkets position products at different height to steer their sales, and the majority of customers grab the laundry detergent from the mid-shelf with the most sensational pricing-tag.

A specific book is also a far more unique product than i.e. "laundry detergent".

To be comparable, you would have to compare laundry detergent to a genre of books, and maybe also the publisher.

And then the absurdity of some of Amazon's "Smart Shopping" strategies becomes quite obvious: Is there a market for an Amazon Dash-button that blindly ships i.e. a "fiction book from Penguin publishing"...?
> A CEO leaving a company can immediacy lead to serous consequences

Is it something that has been study or observed? Most company are resilient enough to handle the leaving of an individual, being a Chief or not. The opposite would be a flag for an instable company.

If people are surprised by this - and clearly a non-trivial number of people are - then even if the behavior works as intended it should be indicated in the UI at critical points.

GitHub is not simply a UI to actual git repositories it hosts. It also carries a lot of data that is not stored in the repository itself. The UI deliberately blends the two types of interactions. There's no such thing as "creating a pull request" in git, for example.

It's not at all unreasonable for a user to assume "forking" merely creates a copy with an upstream origin. Read through the steps again:

1. You fork a public repository
2. You commit code to your fork
3. You delete your fork

Note that from a user's point of view, they only committed code to their "copy" of the repository, i.e. their own repository. They never pushed it upstream or created a pull request that references it. That abstraction is clearly wrong if you look at what actually happens but it's not difficult to see why a user might think this way, especially given that "a fork" often simply means "a copy", i.e. something standalone that then goes on to diverge from its origins (e.g. "Edge is a fork of Chromium" or "MariaDB is a fork of MySQL").

Of course the mistake is that the fork is not a copy. The fork isn't a fork (i.e. a separate copy that shares the original's history), it's a view of the original repository with its own refs. The commits are added to the same repository, only the refs that reference them aren't. This makes sense architecturally but it means most metaphors and analogies people likely bring to the table break down because they assume a fork is a copy, not a collection of refs layered over a shared repository of commits - after all "allowing stranges to add commits to the repository" is what PRs are for. Except of course that's not what PRs do then, PRs actually allow strangers to add references to commits to your branches.
It means ABA is most effective if applied at a younger age.

Think feral children -- it's almost impossible to aquire language after a certain age.

The parent holding the ABA course for parents was lucky to be well off and being able to hire the best, including a personal team of therapists, and his son made a "full recovery" from non-verbal to indistinguishable by experts from neurotypical children even though he started ABA at 5 years, but he told us that's quite a rare outcome.
I may be beliving that a benevolent AI has an obligation preserve our consciousness after our death, as well as treat us with free ice cream. There should be a process of reconciling your beliefs with reality.

Poland did end up on the receiving side of Stalin's benevolent dictatorship. He essentially de-partitioned Poland thus effectively recreating it. An uncelebrated founding father of Polish nation state.

Many people would think Poles suffered comparatively little and got out with comparatively much out of WW2.
Proof of what? Proof that non profitable companies go bust, which is what your quote says? Or proof that over optimising for employee happiness results in under optimising for profit, which you haven't quoted?
Isn't the case for most people outside the US government funded pensions essentially just "the Stock Market but with extra steps"? If the market crashes pensioners are going to have a bad time.
> One can safely assume

With something as nuance as this, I wouldn't safely assume all processes, especially one from a compliance (none-technical) department account for it.
> If the story is "all companies must be fully employee-owned workers' cooperatives", then first, note that you are calling for a restriction on workers' rights: they have to be given part of their pay as stocks, and they can't sell them freely.

This is simply not true. Many workers' coops issue one share per worker (there may not even be stock), which affords them one vote in company matters. In such a scenario the share may not be bought or sold, as it is a case of one share if and only if a member. It is not correct to represent proportional democratic control of a workplace as somehow a restriction on workers rights.
It's already the case for ECMAScript and I don't see why TypeScript should be treated differently when Node.js has to transpile it to JavaScript and among other things ensure that there are no regressions that would break existing code.

Unlike Python typing it's not only type erasure: enums, namespaces, decorators, access modifiers, helper functions and so on need to be transformed into their JavaScript equivalent.
Or a bunch of other reasons: They are forced to sell to meet a margin call. They are irrationally fearful. They need to sell to afford their next yacht. They are rebalancing their portfolio.

Or you can configure the TS compiler to allow JS imports, then everything also compiles and works, but you can slowly convert your codebase from JS to TS file by file and be sure that all TS files are properly typed and all JS files are untyped instead of having everything as TS files where some are typed and some are not.
> "A measure of transaction processing 20 years later (2005)"

This is one of my favorites. Along with https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/wp-content/uploads/... (also 20 years later) which has more detail.

> USD/day probably doesn't predict TPS; because the Average transaction value is higher on networks with low TPS.

Exactly. If we only look at USD/day we might not see the trend in transaction volume.

What's happened is like a TV set going from B&W to full color 4K. If you look at the dimensions of the TV, it's pretty much the same. But the number of pixels (txns) is increasing, with their size (value) decreasing, for significantly higher resolution across sectors. And this is directly valuable because higher resolution (i.e. transactionality) enables arbitrage/efficiency.

> Thats a very specific property of git, stemming from its distributed nature.

Not at all. For example, authentication by a proxy server is old-as-the-internet. There's a name for it, I think, "proxy authentication"?[1] I've def had to write support for it many times in the past. It was the way to do SSO for self-hosted apps before modern SSO.

> In fact, for such a hypothetical proxy to be able to solve this scenario, the proxy must have an implementation of git itself.

Ummm, have you ever done a `git clone` before? Do you note the two most common types of urls: https/ssh. Both of these are standard implementations. Logging the user that is authenticating is literally how they do rate limiting and audit logging. The actual git server doesn't need to know anything about the current user or whether or not they are authenticated at all.

That's basically a known fact about LLMs, they need oversight. But if they make the task 100x easier, it's still useful as a starting point. This kind of neural net analysis is difficult to do manually.
