JOINs are just hard period. When you're operating at a large scale, you need to be thinking about exactly how to partition + index your data for the types of queries that you want to write with JOINs.

Streaming joins are so hard, that they're an anti pattern. If you're using external storage to make it work, then your architecture has probably gone really wrong or you're using streams for something that you shouldn't.
> As I said, laws that prohibit companies like Apple from disclosing something are very different from laws that force them to affirmatively make false statements.

1. Apple tells users that they don't snoop on iCloud data, and sprinkles this marketing statement by assuring users that they are literally incapable of doing so.

2. US government lawfully forces Apple to gather and share intelligence, with an adjacent gag order. Apple changes a few settings on their backed and issues updates to to iPhones, along with publicly disclosed changes. Apple - as any business wishing to still exist in a year (or the management wishing to keep their seats) - complies with government's demands to the letter.

3. Gag order literally renders Apple and any person aware, [edit: s/incapable/disallowed/] of stating "we started logging this data" or "we have not been logging this data in the past, but..."

4. Apple logs and shares data, has to lie to customers to abide the law.

Yes, but requiring a regular booster is entirely different from requiring a regular reinfection.
GoDaddy also never gave me the domain I tried to buy. What is legally bonding them over delivering their promises ? What can we do ?

It's like calling an Uber, agreeing on the price, and then having the driver increase the fare by 200x while you're already in the back of the car.

It’s worse than this because they are just parking virtually domain names and all they have to do to know if the demand is here (before jacking up the price) is to fake such sells
Thats because of the calculation:

- Endorse Harris and Trump wins, Trump will seek revenge on Bezos and Amazon (he tried this in the first term)

- Endorse Trump and Harris wins, Harris will not act outside the bounds of a normal government official

This is capitulation to the perceived threats of a Trump presidency and is very bad.
I think the intention of the Click-to-Cancel is in the right place, but I just imagine the actual implementations will be on par with the AdChoices[1] opt-out of affiliate advertising thing where they present this feature that is literally the buggiest software ever made and guaranteed to fail and put you back in the old robo-call hell.

This might be the central point of the conflict. I believe there are a few people who can benefit a great deal. And I think lots of people could probably benefit a little. But I don't think lots of people could benefit massively. It just doesn't work that well.

Ask HN: Is it acceptable to put up large pull requests?
My coworker regularly puts up 1500+ line pull requests that are in a single diff. I find it nearly impossible to give good feedback to this many changes at one once - and to go through it thoroughly can take me well over an hour (so I usually am not thorough.)

Am I wrong to balk at this? Should I just consider it part of the job and suck it up, or do I have a legitimate grievance here?

I've worked at places that would straight up reject a PR if it was too big and demand it be broken out into smaller logical pieces - but we definitely do not have that culture here.
Implicit here is the assumption that (a) when evaluating many franchises McD is still attractive for new owner operators despite the obvious flaw, or (b) switching costs are high for existing McD owner operator victims, and the issue wasn't known or believed to be this bad when they started.

Namecheap has unfortunately decided to start screwing people and relying on inertia to keep bilking them.

There was a post on here last year or so about how they blamed ICANN for a fee increase, but it turned out that Namecheap was just jacking people for most of it. An alleged rep joined the thread and tried to excuse it by pointing people to an alternate "budget" service that they launched... but of course (IIRC) doesn't allow you to move your domains to directly.
This is kind of interesting, but that's incredibly isolated. Living out there full-time isn't just a bit of a departure from a big city, by Canadian terms it's about the width of British Columbia, just to get back to the city where your friends might be if you're coming from Toronto. In their Maclean's interview, they remark that they're on the same latitude as Winnipeg, but Winnipeg is already incredibly isolated as it is from anywhere else. To get from Winnipeg to Toronto it would take 28 hrs of driving if you're silly enough to not fly, or 14 in the other direction to get to Calgary, assuming you're not stopping for long in the smaller "cities" along the way.

For that reason, anyone making that kind of a leap has some level of respect from me, it's not a move I'd make. Although I do drive that far sometimes to see some friends and family, it's like a bi-yearly thing at best.

Seems like RSS is broken in this regard. As far as I can tell, the spec doesn't clear whether the title element is HTML or plaintext. [1][2] So the HN RSS feed inserts the title of this article into the <title> element as plaintext, but all the readers I tried stripped out the <script> tag, apparently treating the content of the <title> element as HTML markup.

Atom though unambiguously specifies that the <title> (and other) elements should be treated as plaintext unless specified otherwise with the type attribute. [3][4]

> Apparently, this domain was owned by a seller who listed the domain under Namecheap's 'Buy Now' tool, which according to NameCheap, is only intended for fixed price, non-auction sales.

Perhaps I am an asshole, but seems like they sold their domain for $31, you bought it for $31 and that's that. Good on you to offer $3900 but for $8000 I would pay some lawyer to put them on notice.
Event correlations are a typical one. Think about ad tech: you want every click event to be hydrated with information about the impression or query that led to it. Both of those are high-volume log streams.

You want to end up with the results of:

```
select * from clicks left join impressions on (clicks.impression_id=impressions.id)
```

but you want to see incremental results - for instance, because you want to feed the joined rows into a streaming aggregator to keep counts as up to date as possible.

That YouTube commenter you quote pretty clearly did not pay attention to the video.

> FSD mimics human behavior. If you are speeding into a roundabout at 55 mph, you are the one in the wrong, not FSD. It's honestly kind of incredible the ridiculous lengths people go to try to discredit FSD.

That's just rephrasing the YouTube comment. Try watching the video yourself. Particularly watch test #7.

Here's a summary:

• The car is on a highway, traveling at normal highway speed of 55 mph. There is no visual indication that there is a roundabout somewhere up ahead.

• After traveling ~3800 feet there is a sign that indicates a roundabout and says the roundabout speed is 15 mph. The roundabout is not yet visible.

• The car continues at highway speed past another sign ~600 feet past the first that also shows that there will be an upcoming roundabout. The road starts curving after that sign, and the roundabout starts coming into view ~600 feet further down the road.

• The car continues approaching the roundabout at highway speed until the human intervenes. He tried to give the car as much time as possible for FSD to decide to slow down. In some of the tests he waited long enough that when he did hit the brakes he had to brake very very aggressively to slow down to 15 mph before entering the roundabout.

Even if it does not have that roundabout in its map and did not read the signs so it is not expecting a roundabout there shouldn't is see it as a sharp bend in the road that should not be taken at highway speed and slow down?
I'm not sure I've met anyone with significant application security experience who would claim writing correct C is anything less than very challenging. It's not just memory safety, even basic features like iterable collections make code easier to write while at the same time avoiding potential bugs (vs C for loops in this case).
Not necessarily. If you bid low, you're effectively picking up "remnant" inventory that no one else was willing to pay to target.
> California is not even close to being a swing state, afaik?

As the most populous state, California has a lot of political donors - likely the most registered members in a state for both major parties. 1 in 8 Americans are in California. Those many small-value & high-roller donors help finance the swing state operations, but need to be activated. Donors are why both Republican and Democratic party candidates held events in California, when it's not in play.
Yeah, that's reasonable lets go for that, so given statements to the effect of

A) Ending democracy

vs

B) Ending cronyism

Regardless of how effective you may think they would be at that goal, would you pick (A) over (B)?
Keep in mind what you're using isn't much of what they're launching. 18.1 only has a couple of features, the three releases after that have the bulk of what they demonstrated.
Unless you have some insider info, I think you’re oversimplifying why Linux is giving Rust a chance.

Also, model checking - at least as you’re portraying it - sounds too good to be true. If it was anywhere close to the realm of practicality for large C codebases (without maintaining a model separate from code), we would be hearing its praises being sung by C devs all over.

Of course you don't want to talk about it, when you have zero evidence to back up any of your claims. You wrote all that but you could not produce a single piece of evidence besides a few sentences to indicate unproven rapes might have occurred based on very selective information given to them by the Israelis during guided propaganda tours. The claims are "mass rapes" have occurred (not that there were no instances of SA), not a single piece of evidence has been produced, every testimony that came out was proven to be fabricated and here you are trying to peddle your unsubstantiated propaganda as if its something already proven beyond reasonable doubt.
This. Something like 5 people are almost entirely funding Trump's slump (hard to call this mess a campaign) towards the White House and for sure they are going to want pay back. This is what oligarchy looks like.

I think this also includes sharing code.
Years ago I got a rental that was some new hideous looking 4-door Fiat model. Maybe a 500L or something. They were taking off the plastic wrap when I got it.

It was a week of beating off people approaching me and asking about it. It looked weird, I thought people wanted to beat me up but they were genuinely curious about it.

That some weird truck with a formerly 3 year waiting list is at the top of the charts a couple months into shipping should be surprising? Wait a year. Nobody is looking at the 500L now.

I don't understand the last sentence. If the machines are frequently broken, that damages the Macdonald's brand in the consumer's eyes. And if the franchisee's are paying unnecessary costs, making a Macdonald's franchise less lucrative for the owner-operator, that will lead to fewer franchises renewals and new franchises in the future.

I sometimes wonder why Dev Containers is so slow. I've tried it on a project with a go, Python and nodejs toolchain, and pre-builds running on GitHub Actions usually take an hour and a half or more.
It's a reasonable question. I've been on HN since 2019, but can't remember my old password and I guess I never added an email so I'm unable to recover the account.

To answer your original question: not much. They've claimed that the $31 price I paid was a 'glitch.' They said that while they understood it's frustrating, they won't do anything to remedy the situation besides refund me my $31. They said their refund process takes ten business days. It's been well over that and no refund in sight. But to be honest, I'd much rather get access to the domain I bought than a refund.

Their most recent message to me was asking if I want to proceed with buying the domain at the new $8000 price. Since I guess I have unwittingly been forced into a negotiation even though I used 'Buy Now' and the original funds I paid have already left my bank account, I don't have any faith that Namecheap won't allow the seller to continue to ratchet up the price.
No, I don't believe so.

It clarifies specifically what problem it is optimal for "We prove that our working-set property is sufficient to guarantee universal optimality, specifically, for the problem of ordering vertices by their distance from the source vertex", but A* only explores a subset of vertices based on the heuristic, so it can be more efficient.

All C is unsafe, because it's a property of most language features. E.g. this is unsafe:

int main(void)
{
global_init();
service_loop();
global_cleanup();
}

Some of these functions, defined in another translation unit could require parameters, but their declarations be incorrect or missing from this translation unit. So the program will link, but the behavior is undefined.

"Unsafe" means that "no diagnostic is required when a rule is broken". When correctness depends on the programmer, such that the tooling silently accepts incorrectness, that is unsafe.

Almost all C is unsafe, but not all coding situations are equally risky of having a problem.

State-level Secretaries of State has basically the same meaning as the UK one. Most states' business incorporation happens under the SoS's administration. They also usually manage elections and other public-facing interfaces of the state government.
A large part of my job in the last few months has been in the form figuring out how to optimize joins in Kafka Streams.

Kafka Streams, by default, uses either RocksDB or an in-memory system for the join buffer, which is fine but completely devours your RAM, and so I have been writing something more tuned for our work that actually uses Postgres as the state store.

It works, but optimizing JOINs is almost as much of an art as it is a science. Trying to optimize caches and predict stuff so you can minimize the cost of latency ends up being a lot of “guess and check” work, particularly if you want to keep memory usage reasonable.
The DMCA, though a mostly terrible law, actually doesn't prohibit any of what the ice cream machine people want to do, at least according to the CAFC.

Chamberlain v. Skylink, final court of appeals for the federal circuit opinion, page 39:

"Underlying Chamberlain’s argument on appeal that it has not granted such authorization lies the necessary assumption that Chamberlain is entitled to prohibit legitimate purchasers of its embedded software from “accessing” the software by using it.

Such an entitlement, however, would go far beyond the idea that the DMCA allows copyright owner to prohibit “fair uses . . . as well as foul.” Reimerdes, 111 F. Supp. 2d at 304.

Chamberlain’s proposed construction would allow copyright owners to prohibit exclusively fair uses even in the absence of any feared foul use.

It would therefore allow any copyright owner, through a combination of contractual terms and technological measures, to repeal the fair use doctrine with respect to an individual copyrighted work—or even selected copies of that copyrighted work. Again, this implication contradicts § 1201(c)(1) directly. Copyright law itself authorizes the public to make certain uses of copyrighted materials. Consumers who purchase a product containing a copy of embedded software have the inherent legal right to use that copy of the software. What the law authorizes, Chamberlain cannot revoke." (Emphasis mine)

That is a wallet with a lot of Bitcoins in it. We don't know to what degree it's controlled by Tether. We don't know the degree to which it's otherwise encumbered. If I recall correctly, FTX also pointed to wallets with Bitcoins in them from time to time.

To be clear, I am not saying Tether is committing fraud. Just that to the extent there have been investigations, they came up short, and that them being short is not even among the main risks to their existence.
Okay... so you're not asking for any changes at all, then. You just made a comment that vaguely tended towards the idea that employees need more money? Why?

If I can just take any money I "should" be giving to employees and absolve myself of that goal simply by spending the money on the company instead, which every publicly-owned company currently does, then nothing has changed.

You DO realize things like stock buybacks are done to grow the company, right? Like yes, there is a profit motive there for shareholders, but paying off shareholders could also be classified as growing the company.

So again - what are you actually asking for? Please clarify whatever point you're trying to make, because so far, all you've said is "nothing should change".
I've heard plenty of stories about the MCD ice cream machines, but it doesn't add up for me. Can someone who has more insight shed some light into this?

- Are the machines listed as "broken" on https://mcbroken.com/ actually broken? Or is that more of a meme, with many just undergoing routine cleaning, etc.?

- Why does this seemingly happen only in US? In European McDonald's it's pretty much unheard of.

- Why would McDonald's Corp. be happy with the status quo? Is it some kind of tactic to squeeze more revenue from the franchises? If so, why not address it in the franchise agreement and just let restaurants sell more ice cream?
anyone can buy ads but who buys the majority of ads and ads with the greatest overall impact and impression? That is very obviously skewed. Campaigns directly have limitations on these things, PACs however, do not.

and to your question there, one example is to look at Japan. They give candidates an allotted minimum amount of time on TV for free. A candidate gets platformed purely by running. Not only that but we already do grass roots calling/texting/door-knocking campaigns... it is all definitely possible, but unlikely given that the current organization of elections heavily favors the entrenched two party system and the structures that back them (corporations, PACs, private interests, party structures etc...)

When our entire system requires billions to run and win an election, we are guaranteeing ourselves that we will continue to live in an Oligarchy.
