Can you elaborate? What's done wrong with Python and right with other "moderately used language" ?

For start, C/C++ doesn't even have an official ecosystem. For Java or Golang, it looks better only because the "ecosystem" does not always include native extensions like cgo or JNI. Once you add them the complexity were no better than Python's

I think one of the main reasons is that many apps such as banking or drm-protected apps, which are usually only offered through the official app stores, will refuse to work on a rooted or custom imaged phone.

This does a good job of encapsulating the considerations of an event driven system.

I think the author is a little too easily dismissive of sagas though - for starters, an event driven system is also still going to need to deal with compensating actions, its just going to result in a larger set of events that various systems potentially need to handle.

The virtue of a saga or some command driven orchestration approach is that the story of what happens when a user does X is plainly visible. The ability to dictate that upfront and figure it out easily later when diagnosing issues cannot be understated.

If you're too land-poor to have large pastures, and either too capital- or too labour-poor to have individual boxes, it's wise to design horse group pens so there are no places a weaker animal could be trapped by a stronger one; I hear the same design principles apply (only more so, because monkeys brigade) to primate areas in zoos, which makes it no surprise that we'd also find it among feudal humans.

> etruscans, not romans

Assuming the Sabines ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_of_the_Sabine_women#/medi... ) were not a singular event, the neighbours of the romans might've had many reasons not to lionise them. Although the trope* does recur, both in the New World ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cattle_raiding#/media/File:Joh... ) and even among those seeking a new life in the Off-World colonies ( https://cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-yzgoj/images/stencil/1280x12... ).

A felt isn't woven along straight lines like a fabric, it's just a mass (no loom needed!) held together by crooked fibers. Does the felt of society therefore imply "me and my brother against our cousin; we and our cousins against the other faction; all the city-zens against those romans"?

Large organizations can get Lightroom with a perpetual license. For me though, Adobe's and C1's rent seeking and the pathetic state of open source alternatives really sucked the fun out of photography.

With some effort you can get Lightroom running if you've still got an activated installation somewhere. It's not just activation, but apparently a time-limited license on the facial recognition software Adobe used. On MacOS the remaining 32-bit code sprinkled about (beyond just the installer) means it won't run on 64-bit only operating systems.
At work I've developed a buildroot based "embedded OS" för intel machines. Our buildroot system gets bundled into the kernels initramfs and we boot straight into that from UEFI. For upgrades we kexec() into a new kernel-image so generally we never write anything to disk (The original image can still be upgraded if deemed necessary). All applications are then regular docker images. All this is managed by an in-house developed deamon. Works quite well. That said, we're not really using buildroot for anything other than building a few libs + this in-house daemon so I'm leaning towards getting rid of it and just rely on busybox+musl+a few other deps built using a simple script.

I moved to Ansel after the author's blog post on Dark table's development and project management issues was on here and while it's still v0.0.0 it works fine for the most part and does a number of things better than LR. But it still takes a while to figure out what to fiddle with since many things are (as typical of open source projects) just algorithms implemented from papers with expressive parameters names like k and sigma without much thought towards a product and what the end user wants to use. But changing a workflow you're used to for almost a decade is never fun.

This is a good summary of building an evented system. Having built and run one that scaled up to 130 services and nearly 60 engineers, I can say this solves a lot of problems. Our implementation was a bit different but in a similar vein. When the company didn’t do well in the market and scaled down, 9 engineers were (are) able to operate almost all of that same system. The decoupling and lack of synchronous dependencies means failures are fairly contained and easy to rectify. Replays can fix almost anything after the fact. Scheduled daily replays prevent drift across the system, helping guarantee that things are consistent… eventually.
The map view also tended to break after two years or so due to a Google maps API key lapsing. It was noticeable for a whole that the subscription variant got a lot more love and effort (but maybe that languished similarly).

I guess that if they wanted to charge extra for the AI features then people wouldn't want to pay them for it. So instead of buying a perpetual licence with 3 years of updates included, and having to pay extra for AI features, they decided to just kill the software in 3 years.

The only thing I see is that it hallucinates a lot when you ask it for knowledge. Which makes sense because 8B is just not a lot to keep detailed information around.

From the article, males swim over fairly frequently, but usually leave again when they find no females. So, there is a regular opportunity to add to the gene pool. What is newsworthy is that there is now at least one female there (sexes of the cubs are unknown). I think it is still a big leap to assume that a sustainable population is inevitable, however, as the occasional visiting male still has to find the female(s) and the resulting population will still be quite inbred.

I thought of getting one of these for airline travel because they'd raise less eyebrows but in practice it wasn't needed. Also, the regular models I use are much more convenient for ham use (having a promiscuous mode to listen in to all traffic even not addressed to my DMR ID, and huge database capacity for callsigns).

A Garmin GPS also has this "military" look about it (due to its ruggedness of course), and some can also do satcom (with InReach functionality) which is pretty strictly banned in some countries like India. In the Middle East this is not a thing, and sat phones are actually a huge think (they even have their own sat network called Thuraya). Probably because of the large swathes of desert without any infrastructure. So I'd expect less eyebrows raised about the garmin there.

I would argue that puzzles in commercial collections are more likely to have that problem than ones made freely available by hobbyists, as commercial enterprises inevitably cut corners on things like labour costs for an actual human setter.
