The design of the ORM changed substantially once, early in Django's history, when the "magic removal branch" landed. There are some notes on the new syntax that introduced here: https://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/RemovingTheMagic#Codecha...

That branch merged on May 1st 2006: https://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2006/may/01/magicremova...

I've long found Django's commitment to not breaking too much at once inspiring. The release notes and upgrade guides are really solid.
I work for a Fortune 100 company and we still use ColdFusion (though, we moved to Lucee).
> Go to cities like Copenhagen or Amsterdam or many other great cities around Europe you can easily walk or bike through.

I lived in Amsterdam. It's shit. Transit takes AGES to get you to the destination, so people have to use bikes. Which is NOT fun in winter at 6am in fog or rain.

And Copenhagen has a dirty little secret: it practices harsh population control. It's population is the same size now as in 1970-s. They successfully fended off densification and kept the city from degrading.

> Cities should be built around humans, not roads intermitted by buildings with endless parkings and traffic.

Indeed. We should build around humans, not public transit and bike lanes. And humans vastly prefer individual cars.

When there are equally valid options to use cars or bikes for commutes, around 95% of people prefer cars: https://www.theguardian.com/cities/2017/sep/19/britains-1960...

> I have nothing against people wanting to live in their own house, but the endless suburbs I've seen in US are just unlivable

Really? That's why 85% of the US citizens want to live in 'unlivable' suburbs?
Well, .NET was already used a lot when it was built in a few decades ago.
This reminds me a bit of the obsessive fun of foursquare super-usering back when that app wasn't dead in all but name. I remember painstakingly updating whole strip malls and such to have every single business perfectly delineated and labeled, with the pins located right at the front door of each.

It's pretty safe... I live in Portland and am not shy about telling people I think that social security and the Wagner Act and OSHA are all unconstitutional, and that I think government should never provide welfare, and nothing bad has happened to me. In fact earlier this year I requested trial by combat from the Portland taxiation office, both on the phone and in a written letter, such that my victory could exclude me from paying Supportive Housing taxes; the only outcome was the lady on the phone laughed at me.
I've wondered this too. Just typing a single letter or two into Google immediately suggests stuff. I hate it. I don't want these random suggestions entering my brain.

Yeah, probably. That's why I left a footnote.

I have some "relative" taste of it in that I'm a lot better off than the past 3 generations of my family minimum. But I was still far from what I consider "wealthy" even within the tech community, let alone to the country at large. I didn't feel it fundamentally changed how I approached finances outside of being more willing to splurge on some tech (something I've always wanted to do) after I put away 20% for savings.

But that's only one magnitude. Who knows, money corrupts for a reason.
> We've been living in a fantasy land of "no political affiliation" in the tech world for decades

Which "we" are you speaking for? That doesn't sound like the tech world, we've had a lot of explicitly political tech movements over the years. Off the top of my head some of the more successful and major ones were:

- Cryptography.

- Free Software.

- Cryptocurrency.

The Silicon Valley based companies have been politically active since at least 2016, there have been a couple of political exoduses by various groups to alternative platforms.

Our unique hiring process: what to expect and why
Would you take fruit from an unmanned fruit stand that just has a sign of how much money to put into the box / venmo? They have no security and no way to "enforce" that you pay! It's not about stealing at all, it's about me doing anything I want and am not physically prevented from doing! If they don't like it they should hire staff!

Not every proper behavior is enforced. You are always free to be a jerk. And it's pretty goofy to tie that to arguments about total personal freedom. Get outa here. You're violating the social contract. You're using a loophole to get much better treatment than "normal" people and in fact you make their experience worse as they have to watch more ads to make up the cost of serving stuff to you.

Also, would the internet be better if everyone acted like you? I think it would be in a significantly worse place if it was never possible to show an ad on the internet, if everyone was as free as you. So you get a massive benefit from others not using their "freedoms?"

"Screw 'em. If they put a fruit stand in my town, I get to take anything I want from it. It's my town. I don't have to follow their "please pay me" signs. I've always been able to take anything I want in my town. Even back when nobody would bring anything over for 'sale.'"

E-waste is generally considered a separate category than plastic, as it contains small amounts of a lot of useful, hard to mine metals - much of which is in the chips, but also the lithium in the batteries. And many of those metals are toxic if ingested so we need to keep them out of the soil and water.

Recycling those is probably far more valuable than recycling plastic, pound per pound. We just make so much plastic.
I don't know if that's really true. The government tends to be inefficient, and I sometimes wonder if having more tax money available just allows them to be even more inefficient.
The US is a ~250 year old continuous democracy. Almost no European states can say the same. After WW1 a lot of democratic European states popped up. Two decades later half of them were autocratic.

I think it's half that our governments don't want to give away control, lest the peasants become uppity. And the other half is that that's just how the dice landed when the laws were first created.

We can. But we don't and never have. Anyone arguing for the freedom to lie without consequence is off the deep end. There has never been a society that doesn't punish lying and fraud. (What constitutes a lie is a deeper question.)

USGS stats give the iron/steel at ~50%, aluminium at ~53%, and the highest achieved rate for lead, at 75% (largely from batteries IIUC):

[I]n 2018, recycled material as a percentage of apparent supply of various metals, including aluminum, chromium, copper, iron and steel, lead, magnesium, nickel, tin, and titanium, ranged from a low of 22% for tin to a high of 75% for lead (table 1). in 2018, the United states recycled 58.6 million metric tons (Mt) of metals with a total value of $37.7 billion (excluding zinc, for which data were withheld to avoid disclosing company proprietary data in 2018).

Sure. But Elon changed teams. He used to be bipartisan. But he chose a champion in the aftermath of Covid and--by the looks of it--he's chosen a bad one.

(In an alternate universe where Musk stuck to what he's good at, I could see the entire Artemis programme being delegated to SpaceX and a bipartisan adoption of Tesla as America's EV standard bearer. Instead, there is real political capital in creating a rival to SpaceX. And Tesla is going to have to constantly be on the defence against cheap Chinese imports from the Democrats and establishment Republicans.)

> Seeing you call it a "new power" is not relatable, so it may reinforce ideas that it is a bubble.

Whereas what it could be reinforcing instead is that some people are better at "using AI" than others.

When I was young, I always saw how my parents never really "got" new technology that I was using all the time, like the internet. Many young people think about it and are sure it won't happen to them. I'm sure many on this technophile site think so.

And then a new technology like AI comes along, some people find ways to be incredibly productive with it, but a very widespread sentiment is that they're... lying? Mistaken? Not very good at their job so it helps them more? The number of excuses people have for "keep this new technology that I don't know how to use away for me" is pretty crazy.

(And I say this as someone who is probably not on the "cutting edge" of AI usage, compared to others I see.)
Most of the companies I was familiar with then did not have enough time or resources to check for and resolve every problem, and these problems were very real. At some companies the engineers were given autonomy, authority, and effectively unlimited budget to do literally whatever was required to mitigate any publicly visible failures that occurred. We had a lot of backup plans to keep operations running, sometimes literally paper and pencil, when the inevitable failures occurred. A lot of companies were furiously faking it and throwing people at the problem.

I directly witnessed a few near catastrophic failures due to Y2K at different companies, literally company killers. We kept everything (barely) running long enough to shore up and address the failures without anyone noticing, partly because we had prepared to operate in the face of those failures since we knew there was no way to fix them beforehand. It was a tremendous decentralized propaganda coup. No one wanted to be the company that failed as a result, the potential liability alone was massive.

The idea that what was averted was minor is a pretty naive take. I was genuinely surprised that we actually managed to hold some of the disasters together long enough — out of sight and out of mind — to fix them without anyone noticing critical systems were offline for months. IT was a bit more glitchy, slow, and unavailable back then, so the excuses were more plausible.

> There is an unwritten social contract here.

Is this the same unwritten social contract which means we shouldn't use a mute button on ads? After all, the TV company gets paid to send ads to us, and muting those ads means less ad effectiveness.

Don't use the toilet during an ad break either.

Nor use the +15 seconds functionality on video recorder playback to skip ads.

You can see how the social contract for my entire life include the option to avoid ads, and even with 'freeloaders', the broadcast TV business model worked.

YouTube started long after Sony Corp. of America v. Universal City Studios, Inc. ("the Betamax case") established time shifting as an allowed practice in the US. Their business model, based on any implied social contract, must therefore include that possibility, eg, that people may watch content via downloaders.

They could respond by, for example, placing ads directly in the downloaded video steam. This would mean less profit, but no social contract requires customers to keep a company profitable.

And it would be odd indeed if broadcast TV had a more effective business model in the face of freeloaders than online video.

The existence of stuff like this is why I'm always so skeptical of "fix everything" plans such as what Harris apparently recently said about taxing unrealized gains. I heard it secondhand but it appears that whopper of a tax is 'only' for those with income or assets or something over X hundred million dollars. Guess what though? The venn diagram of those folks, and people who can afford attorneys to evade such a tax by methods such as described here, is a circle. And when that scheme brings in far too little money, I assume it'll be expanded downward till it actually hits those of us who are just trying to get to retirement and may or may not make it.
If you figure out what that difference is, let me know. The tech scene has been decidedly liberal (old school liberal, nowadays people maybe call that libertarian) and as political as it can be since the start. There has been a trend where other political cultures are getting involved too since ... probably the Obama campaign was when politicians really started noticing that spreading messages through the internet was more effective than going through the corporate news. But that is just a change of affiliations (maybe more accurately a broadening), tech has always been affiliated with someone.
