I have no idea what you mean by "somewhat existing." Public health expenditure in the US is more per capita than any other country's public + private spending combined.

This does not mean the US is healthier (after all absurdly high spending is in part to cover health issues). But money per se is not remotely the problem and public health expenditure very loudly exists.

> You burn a little natural gas for that.

For that you need to have 100% of idle capacity just sitting there.

> The priority for climate change mitigation is to get to 97% carbon free soon

No, it's not. The priority is to shake down consumers to get as much money to Greenie cronies as possible. That's why Germany is straightforwardly _subsidizig_ new natural gas power plants. With a pinkie-promise to be "hydrogen ready", maybe sometime in 2030-s.

> It would be great if the SQLite team published an official npm package

Not a chance. We publish only vanilla JS and adamantly refuse to go down the rabit hole of supporting out-of-language tools (none of which any of our project members use). We support an "officially sanctioned" npm build, maintained by Thomas Steiner, but do not actively develop for any JS frameworks.

Direct support for any given framework (npm included) would give the impression that we endorse that framework, and endorsement of third-party projects is something we actively avoid.

Mathematician here. No it's really not. Having used it extensively it craps out all the time, fails to parse things properly, doesn't understand anything other than a very narrow undefined subset of anything that needs to be done and generally makes things harder.

It sure looks like it would though.

Nah. Not in this day and age. Most of that software can be recompiled - hopefully no one is writing stuff in assembly, at least not to the point where it can't easily be ported. With many-core CPUs cheap and common, everything is fast. Hardware drivers matter less in the 2020s - there is far less diversity of hardware than there was in the 1990s. x86 "know-how" is vendor lock-in, not a benefit.
I'm interested in these kind of kernels to run very high performance network/IO specific services on bare metal, with minimal system complexity/overheads and hopefully better (potential) stability and security.

The big concern I have however is hardware support, specifically networking hardware.

I think a very interesting approach would be to boot the machine with a FreeBSD or Linux kernel, just for the purposes of hardware as well as network support, and use a sort of Rust OS/abstraction layer for the rest, bypassing or simply not using the originally booted kernel for all user land specific stuff.
I wrote a business plan once for a similar concept. I wanted to model it after Antolin, but generally available and for adults. People would be answering LLM-generated questions to build up reputation (tracked on Colony?) that would give them access to "guilds" or "clubs" of likeminded people with a similar reputation/"skill" level for social purposes. Inspired by a partner that wanted to flaunt Harry Potter knowledge, but having no quantifiable and socially-valuable metric to do so.

records aren't the structs OP is referring to. Instead, they are thinking of value classes. (at least, that's effectively what a struct means in C#).

You will see `value record Point(int x, int y)` which is different from `record Point(int x, int y)`. The key difference being that `record Point` will create a reference to the x/y data with identity whereas `value record Point` will instead represent that data inline without a reference.

I suspect that `value record` will be the way pretty much everyone starts using `record` as there's basically no reason not to.
Yes, as unsigned overflow is fine by default. AFAIK the issue was originally that there were still machines that used ones complement for describing negative integers instead of the now customary twos complement.

There are many layers of that's not how it works at play here.

In-memory SQLite databases don't use WAL. Wasm (and browser Wasm, in particular) doesn't support anything like the shared memory APIs SQLite wants for its WAL mode.

Litestream requires a very precise WAL setup to work (which just so happens to work with the default native SQLite setup, but is hard to replicate with Wasm).

Cloudflare Durable Objects may have been inspired by Litestream but works very differently (as do LiteFS, Turso, etc…)

The general idea of streaming changes from SQLite would work, but it's a lot of work, and the concurrency model of in-browser Wasm will make it challenging to implement.

(I wrote that forum post some time ago, and have WAL working in a server side Wasm build of SQLite, but none of the options to make it work would make much sense, or be possible, in browser)

I replied here earlier with my own pet project to essentially say that you don't need a whole lot of complexity to solve for QOL improvements in the console but was promptly downvoted, I thought that was fair and so deleted my comment.

However, now I do feel the need to say this - you really do not need a whole lot to enhance your productivity on the python REPL by a large factor, if you take advantage of some simple built-in facilities:

A. Understand the use of the PYTHONSTARTUP environment variable. This alone is a big advantage. It'll allow you to you automatically import often needed modules and declare helpers that you always seem to need.

B. Once you've gotten used to that, Wrap the built-in module code (or I presume pyrepl) to add the little things that you need and point PYTHONSTARTUP to it

C. Enjoy

Valve Corporation is one of such private companies, mostly known these days for its Steam game updates and store platform.

Being private didn't prevent it turning into a monopsony, ironically for the discussion, maybe because its competitors were mostly public companies (and so didn't care enough to do a good job) ?

They are not immune to walled garden issues though (SteamWorks), but maybe their private structure helped enshittification to proceed much slower ?
Most of the modern "dumbphones" (or "feature phones") would do this just fine for you.

If you want one that can survive anything life will throw at it, look at the Sonim devices - the XP3+ (flip) or XP5+ (candybar). They're Android Go, have exceptionally good (week and a half, easily) battery life, hotspot just fine, and handle actual use a lot better than the KaiOS toys out there. Maybe 3.x is better, but KaiOS 2.x couldn't handle actual use for more than a few weeks without starting to lag, requiring you to remove texts from it so the interface wasn't glacial, and mine eventually just stopped bothering to notify me about incoming calls and texts, which is your one job... The Android Go stuff seems to actually hold up to sustained moderate use.

The way life expectancy is usually calculated, it shouldn't have an effect. It is calculated is by looking at the mortality rate for each age group, which gives a probability of death for each age, and by simulating people growing up in such conditions, and then taking the average age of death.

By doing so, historical events outside of the study period don't have a major effect. In this study, they deliberately avoided the covid pandemic as it would have caused a significant drop in life expectancy that is not representative of a general trend. Of course, the future is not taken into account either. Despite what the name may suggest, life expectancy is like a snapshot of the studied period (1990-2019 here), not a prediction.

Rather than welcome people to the team to learn from them and grow the team, they criticize and reject people like crazy. It’s very reactive rather than proactive behaviour, and it’s a bad sign to have it at a company.

No, it means you can run Linux userland/apps on this kernel, to the level/depth which they currently support of course.

They might not yet implement everything that's needed to boot a standard Linux userland but you could say boot straight into a web server built for Linux, instead of booting into init for example.

That is a beautiful goal but I think that ultimately different disabilities have incompatible goals, and that the engineering costs matter too.

All design forces compromises: what is better for one protected group is often worse for another protected group. Obviously a display is absolutely useless to blind users - so do we decide to have displays or not? There's always more than one approach.

My mum had heaps of usability issues in her home and generally it took plenty of effort on my part to find a solution that was accessible for her limited strength and limited movement.

Yeah, I too dislike jog knobs but they are a design compromise.

In my experience the majority of consumers fail to select designs that have good usability. There seems to be little economic incentive for manufacturers to develop products with better UI design.
