I'm also in small online communities where people are well behaved and threads are high-value and on-topic. But these are side effects of being small, and are unrelated to the tech involved.

Mastodon seems high quality now only because "no one" is on it. It's currently self-selecting like minded people who are invested in making it work. Add a million people a day for a year and see what happens.

The mistake is in thinking that the -tech interface- matters. It does not. The size, and quality, of the community directly dictates the size and quality of the content.

thank you for this explanation! to me it looks like the algo sorts the whole array but in groups of 5; the number of chunks should scale O(N/5) = O(N), no? so how can you claim just by chunking you can ignore the fact that you still sorted N elements e.g. a selection sort would still perform N^2 comparisons total.

This is nice in its uniformity (same tool works for any distro that has an existing AMI to work with), but it's insanely slow compared to just putting a rootfs together and uploading it as an image.

I think I'd usually rather just use whatever distro-specific tools for putting together a li'l chroot (e.g., debootstrap, pacstrap, whatever) and building a suitable rootfs in there, then finish it up with amazon-ec2-ami-tools or euca2ools or whatever and upload directly. The pace of iteration with Packer is just really painful for me.

Yeah and there is no shortage of interview footage where Hassabis made a clear, compelling argument around why Atari was a better starting point for the long road to true digital intelligence than click prediction.

There are a number of reasons why I knew OpenAI was a scam including the fact that a metric fuck ton of my former colleagues work there and they all skew a way, but the biggest reason is that I took one look at the Instruct paper and I was like “differentiable loss function on getting humans to click: feed ranking on crack. they’ll make a lot of money but it’ll never work out”.

Did you know that in most of the US it's illegal to build anything other than car-dependent single family suburbs? For many top US cities over 70% of the land is zoned _exclusively for car-dependent detached single family homes_.

Many urbanists simply want walkable neighborhoods to be _literally legal to build_ so that they can live and raise families without as much risk from cars, which are in a race to the bottom with guns as the number one killer of kids in the US. The bar almost could not be lower.

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/06/18/upshot/cities...

Edit:

You may also not be aware that your detached single family neighborhood is, on average, financially insolvent and can only survive with subsidies from continued sprawl or from denser inner cities.

https://www.strongtowns.org/journal/2020/5/14/americas-growt...

You imply that people have the freedom to not move to the suburbs if they don't like them because "this is America", but don't seem to be aware that there is decades of policy at every level restricting people from doing exactly that.

So if I declare a couple of methods named "Foo" and "Bar", and someone somewhere declares an interface FooBar consisting of those two method names - and bad luck, same signature - then I have to make sure I follow the semantics of that interface I might not even know about, because even if I don't declare it so, anyone could use my class and push it through the FooBar-shaped hole. That's absurd.

Exercise: imagine what the semantics of the following signature are: `int Read(string)`. Did everyone get the same answer? And yet, with implicit interfaces, you absolutely need everyone to settle on the same answer. Otherwise, person A could write a class with such a method with answer A in mind, person B could write a library declaring an interface with such a method with answer B in mind, and person C could use the class from person's A code and the interface from person B's code without realizing.
At the same time, is it too much to ask for a sidewalk? That’s the thing that bothers me the most. Many suburbs seem built to be actively hostile to walkers, rather than just inconveniently sprawling.

I wonder if you've considered (or if there's already) an integration to Git to assist in reviewing pull requests? I often find myself jumping around in VSCode trying to understand some subtle changes in the PRs I'm reviewing which might have small one line changes to many functions.

Understanding how all of those are tangled together would simplify reviews a lot. Especially if the code in question touches places that I haven't visited in a long time (or written by someone else who might have slightly different style of architecting).

I could already see myself using the tool for pair coding / explaining my own PR to others, this looks seriously nice for any sharing.

Suburbs can be built with sidewalks and bike paths.

I'm in a suburb in Australia where I can walk across one road to get to a small local shops or about 15 minutes safe walk from a reasonable sized supermarket.

I can ride on bike paths for 15 km to my job as well.

There are some places in the US like this. I used to ride on bike paths to work near Washington DC.
If so, likely distantly. Stefan Karpinski is American-born (ca 1978) and there’s no indication that Jacek Karpiński had any close relatives in the US.

TI graphing calculators will always have a special place in my heart. Learning TI-BASIC at age 12 is what finally made programming click for me.

It also brought me into online communities on IRC and the web. An absolutely formative experience.
This was my first thought. I don't want to victim blame here, but more curious how in the world this person eats? Is he just swallowing them whole? I have so many questions.

Plus it's bad to have your investments and job in the same place. If the company fails you lose you job and savings at the same time.

Yes, there are non-financial reasons to have "shares in the place where I work". But financially it's a bad investment.

(If the shares come with management rights, responsibilities, obligations, decision making, that's different.)
This is amazing!

That was a huge issue in the Soviet invasion of German-occupied Poland. As I recall, on more than one occasion, the Soviets held back while the Germans slaughtered the Polish resistance before moving in to take over various cities.
Okay! first thing first, this is super cool. Kudos to the whole team. I did some fiddling around and found it usable and I think I can get used to it. However, there are a couple of things that it can improve on. And I have listed a few here.

1. Allow zoom ins and zoom outs in the canvas. It is super hard to navigate through the files otherwise. One way I can see this working is I would make a file graph view which can be obtained by zooming out of it enough, or just a toggle somewhere. That way I can easily navigate through the files.

2. I was not able to create edges or connection between the panes. I had opened a python/django project. So if there is a feature for manually creating edges between the panes, that would be awesome.

3. There are sometimes files that are more important than others. For such cases if I could visually mark those, say perhaps by color or labels, the panes would make more sense. An example for this scenario in django would be, different colored panes for views, forms, urls, models and setting files.

Apart from the features mentioned above, I did not miss anything at all.
Once again great work.
I agree it doesn't add up and the valuation is silly. But I could see the model expanding to Asia, with kpop, jpop, and Chinese idols. But a local rival would have massive advantages and may already exist, idk. My point is just there's a bigger pool of semicelebs than US tv actors.
I’m a C++ programmer, and the few times I had to deal with this kind of thing in Go or Ruby, it was painful.

Remove a method? Your code does not compile anymore and you have to refactor in places where the type of the class was not obvious or explicit at all.
The fact they could get to that chamber is enough to make my original point though

Building hybrid mobile apps for a long time. Capacitor, and earlier, Cordova, packages SPAs perfectly.

React Native also works but has it's own set of challenges.
I really like the way it lets you navigate from function to function (and file to file) and back again. What would be even more useful would be to have a "history" window, similar to your browser's history, that would show the list of files/functions as I'm navigating from one to the other. This would allow me to step forwards or backwards, or even jump to anywhere in my navigation history, without having to slog through the open windows.

Note that this "navigation history" I'm thinking of would be completely unrelated to my edit history; undoing and redoing an edit would not bring me forward/back in my browse history, and vice-versa (although there could certain be keyboard shortcuts for traversing the navigation history as well).
> Busybox being GPL licensed was in no way an accident or frivolous decision. It is still licensed under GPLv2 to this day.

I realise that my comment is quite ambiguous now. The author I referred to was the author of toybox, Rob Landley, and he was the maintainer of busybox in the early 00s. It was him I meant should pick licenses carefully, but honestly reading more about the situation, my take was too simplistic.

It looks like there was a load of license drama as busybox was a mess of GPL2. GPL2+, GPL 3 and "Linux style" licenses -
https://lwn.net/Articles/202106/
https://lwn.net/Articles/202120/

And that's about the time Rob resigned and went off to do toybox on his own. Having read that I'm honestly much more sympathetic, it seems like it was a real mess.
You've not only missed the point, but additionally nothing is stopping you from investing your wealth elsewhere.

I don't understand how your scenario is applicable; it's definitely constructed.
Sounds a lot like just using functions. I do that a lot if there is only a single function from a type I need. I’m yet to decide if that’s a mistake or not.
Also to add, we already have lots of customers who use this model.
This is a great idea! Will think about how to best implement this.
Hah, yeah just be careful with those tiny batteries if that's the way you choose to go. Different chemestries have very different outcomes and I've never been comfortable with scaling tiny batteries up to a whole-home use.

I was about to order a pallet of new lithium cells from one of the US resellers when the batch of repurposed automotive cells popped up. When I was pricing them out I could get the cells and a DIY BMS for around half the price as rack batteries often used by DIYers today. There's more work involved in putting the cells together yourself, but it is nice knowing how it works and how to fix it should a cell fail.
>you are making an argument that people's comp should be higher.

That's a good argument to make.

Among the entire workforce of a successful employee-owned org, I would think there would be no disagreement, IOW nothing to argue about.

It surely depends how successful, but all you need is to do the math to know for sure.

Beyond a certain threshold, companies where most of the workers are living paycheck-to-paycheck can end up paying them more and that bugaboo can go away completely. Whether or not they are actually awarded or entitled to any shares in their employer yet. Even during a time when it's just the rest of the employees owning the company.

What good are shares if you're never going to sell? I mean never sell your shares nor (vote to) sell the company.

The only thing shares like that entitle you to is dividends. And you only get dividends when the company makes enough money to declare a dividend. Over and above any shortcomings that might need to be overcome.

The net difference is that distributions that go to outside investors under the more-familiar arrangement, are instead returned only to employees when they are the only shareholders.

And sometimes that could be a very life-changing difference for doing the exact same work. Sometimes yes, sometimes no.

That's why you do the math.
Oh interesting! Do you mean manually draw a line on the canvas? Would you expect this to persist through sessions?
I haven't done much Go, but TypeScript has similar characteristics with its interfaces and I haven't found refactoring to be much of an issue. If the interface changes then the type checker will alert you to all the places where you now have the wrong method type. The main difference between this and a Java-style explicit interface is that you have to make one jump from the error at the point of use to the definition of the class or record, where in Java the error points you right to the class.

> And my main fear: how do I know I use the right object? I would tempted to add methods all the time to satisfy the target interface instead of using another object that already satisfies that interface.

Why don't you do this with explicit interfaces? It's one extra line of code beyond the method implementation, and it's a backwards-compatible change. I suspect that the main reason you don't is because you know that class Foo shouldn't be a Bar, and the same logic can easily guide you with implicit interfaces.

> Not knowing explicitly whether I can use an object or not is confusing, or am I missing something obvious?

This one I'll agree with. Implicit interfaces work well in quick code that you're writing yourself that fits in your head. When you're trying to understand a library someone else wrote, though, being able to have the IDE list all the implementations of an interface is very valuable.

Also, explicit interface tagging communicates authorial intent in a way that isn't possible with implicit interfaces.

Why? What problem are you trying to resolve? What outcome do you want?

I find that when folks focus on specific implantation details instead of sharing requirements / parameters / outcomes that much gets lost in translation.

Why do you want this implementation? What function / purpose would it serve?
You can zoom on the canvas using CMD+scroll! Other folks have mentioned this as hard to discover so we'll be sure to fix that.
