Rust is the easiest language I've ever made refactors in. This article is nonsense.

I've got a massive multi-binary monorepo and it's so easy to make sweeping refactors to core libraries that impact all build targets.

I can't fathom doing this in C++, or worse, a dynamic language.
> Just because you don't prepay (but pay as you go) for fresh water doesn't mean that everyone has that luxury.

If my local water supplier would offer the option to pre-pay, I might take it. I don't think it would change anything about how I use my water, if the price stayed the same.

(I am pre-paying for my mobile broadband, and I don't notice me using it any different than people who post-pay.)
> is a meter attached

Probably not by default, but if your usage starts to saturate their network switches they’ll add one, to figure out who’s disrupting everyone else’s QoS.
I honestly feel a little creeped out when someone gives out my address to Amazon without my consent, even if it is to send me a gift. Even though Amazon already has my address, this feels different somehow and crosses a small boundary.
We use Hivelocity. Not exactly the same service (bare metal).

Hence it's a gimmick.

Though I bet it would get old really fast.
They aren't my preference either, but I wonder if you might be taking them a bit too literally. They aren't necessarily intended as a direct representation of anything, they are just there to decorate the text and express a bit of silly fun in a way that may or may not be immediately relevant.
Thats Amiga scene baby, open source was always the exception.

Totally fair. Thanks for taking the time to discuss.
Yes, Germany is an extremely low-trust society masquerading as a high-trust society.

Herzner get flack because they are probably the only German entity that the average HN user has dealings with. Anyone who has had exposure to German bureaucracy will recognise the hostility.

A ledger where you insist that every entry touches exactly two accounts, in a business where transactions regularly involve various types of fees, could easily misplace or misattribute a few cents here and there.

This type of business can also have fun dealing with accruals. One can easily do a bunch of transactions, have them settle, and then get an invoice for the associated fees at variable time in the future.
What's weird, is that they are heuristic next token predictors. But that prediction, mixed with a little randomness is producing very seemingly "reasoned" responses.
I'm not sure what's happened on the Rust projects you've worked on professionally, but having used Rust for over nine years now personally and about five years professionally, every experience I've had trying to refactor large projects in Go, C++, Python, and Ruby at work has been strictly worse than even my worst experience having to do so in Rust. Following the compiler errors makes it super easy to follow a chain of cascading changes from needing to change something that gets used elsewhere, which combined with the usual strategy of using the test suite to detect regressions makes it as easy as I could ever imagine. I've often had the experience where I've done large refactors that touch dozens of files and thousands of lines of changes where the tests pass immediately after finishing the changes to get it to compile, and in the refactors at least that size (including ones larger than that where it isn't as cinnamon to where that doesn't happen as often), the remaining work to fix things beyond stuff the compiler can catch is still much smaller than I've had to deal with in other languages.

Obviously, some amount of this is due to my own level of comfort in Rust and not specific to the language, but even if I accepted your premise that Rust is horrendous for large changes, that still would mean that being comfortable with a language can easily make up for any inherent issues with refactoring due to the language itself. If you strongly dislike working on large Rust codebases, I agree that it's probably better to avoid trying to use it professionally, but my experience is so radically different from what you describe that I have trouble believing that this is due to Rust being objectively unfit for large refactors to the extent that you describe.
What are your reasons for caring what other people think?

I ask because those reasons will be most of what determines the success of whatever you build.

Good luck.
Ukraine doesn't claim a 6:1 ratio overall. Only in certain parts of the front line during certain periods of fighting is it so lopsided, such as the recent Russian attempts to retake Kursk or the early assaults on Bakhmut and Vulhedar.

An optimistic estimate for the overall war would be more like 2.5 to 1, but realistically it's probably lower.

Equipment kills are another story.
it's what you're doing (your "function") that's regulated

Yeah. That's how I interpreted the comment, and why I responded apprehensively.

Better to be honest about having weak backups so users can plan accordingly, than to lie about how safe the data is and lull users into a false sense of security...

the OVH contract relating to automatic backup stipulates that a backup of the VPS server is scheduled daily, exported, and then replicated three times before being available in the customer space, and that the storage space allocated to the 'back-up option is physically isolated from the infrastructure in which the VPS server is set up.'
Yeah but look at that border with NATO that Putin keeps manned. He cant just dump his entire military into ukraine like a lot of pundits predicted.

Am I the only one who loves writing C++? I've used some newer languages like Kotlin, and that's good too, but I always come back to C++. I think a lot of the criticism is from the old way it was written, before C++11/17.

As someone with the exact same setup, thank you for strengthening my confirmation bias.
Why do they call it "padding"? It's just being realistic.

The Rabbit M1. This thing is so ridiculously unnecessary. Poor battery life, little to no usable features.
I am not sure what you're referring to.

In the original cut (I saw it opening day in Westwood Los Angeles, owned the laserdisc, then some special DVD set), Russia and the USA are getting agressive with each other. The military on board, Michael Biehn, is going crazy from pressure disease and the knowledge that there is an enemy (Russia). Bud goes down to stop the bomb sent by Beihn. The aliens come up, their ship miles across, so big that several battleships, Russian and USA are sitting on top of it. The end.

The implication being the wouldn't war happen because of the aliens revealing themselves.

This is a very 2001 ending. All implication

In the extend edition the aliens show Bud videos of human aggression and at the same time make tsunamis appear towering over several coastal cities but hovering still, showing the alien power, the aliens basically saying they'll stop the war through their power. The ship rises. The end

This is a completely different meaning that might (the alien's power) gets to preach and decide. It's effectively spelled out.

The extended edition is bad IMO. On top of the long preachy ending, several earlier unimportant fluff is added that makes the movie drag

No new tariffs yet. My bad. Misread
Training data is already provided by humans and certainly already does include spelling instruction, which the model is bind to because of forced tokenization.
Tokenizing on words is already an arbitrary capability added one at a time. It's just the wrong one. LLMs should be tokenizing by letter, but they don't, because they aren't good enough yet, so they get a massive deus ex machina (human ex machina?) of wordish tokenization.
C++ is a lot of fun, and there exist many compelling subsets, but the language as a whole is a minefield that you need years of experience to navigate, and probably can never master.
Ah my bad. Tariffs not implemented yet, and restricted to those areas. Might have been a bad choice of word by hetzner
And this darn update is going to force all the holdouts who still wanted server side encoding/decoding into removing it or being vulnerable.

I don't have a good solution, but maybe legislation helps. There may not be a foolproof solution but I think the more that such devices are widely used, the less likelihood there may be of e.g. a court case hinged on bad evidence.
I think it wouldn't be very relevant. A surge in US energy prices would be sufficient to cause a rise in US compute prices.

I think the US has been scaling compute for both AI and mining the last year, so it makes sense
What is their responsibility and what are they doing that is so insidiously addictive exactly? Endless shitposts by your friends for you to scroll-through is that the fentanyl of the internet?
To me this just seems like they're trying to get some control over what people are exposed to and to find out who's doing what.
Besides few areas, Go is a backwards language. I'd rather use F# or Kotlin. And for performance with GC escape hatch it's borderline impossible to beat C#.

Your second sentence tells us your first sentence was a lie. You can clearly imagine one which is why you specified which data type you use for money. You know a floating point issue is an issue.

Now let's say your price is "0.00023" per unit and someone uses "213.34" units. Can you imagine it now?
At my high school it was a large tiled room with stainless steel columns in the middle. Each column had 6 showerheads around the top. Basically no matter which way you stood, it was full monty exposure to/from almost everyone else in the room.

Hi hi.

You may be interested in the VITALITY study out of China from 2022. 400+ people given FOLFOX + Avastin (standard of care, first line for colorectal cancer) vs FOLFOX + Avastin + high dose Vit C.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35929990/

Roughly showed no change for the overall population, but a significant increase in progression free survival for folks with RAS mutations.

As someone with a stage 4 colorectal cancer with a RAS mutation, this is interesting to me!

These stories are marketing mythology.

Think about. Imagine they sell 100 hot dogs per hour. A $0.25 difference means $25/hr in a store doing many orders of magnitude more revenue each hour.

It’s nothing. The way they play it up in the media gets a lot of attention and builds goodwill, but it’s entirely meaningless to their bottom line.

It’s amazing that people eat these stories up, though. I’ve heard so many people repeating this story as if it’s some amazing secret.

There's nothing wrong with that. I believe that data as presented. I just adjust my conclusion accordingly. You should too
From an enthusiast point of view, I'd wager that it's more because a lot of the most iconic engine noises are distinctive and recognizable based on model and just general throttle feedback and it's a quirk that gives different cars a lot of personality. Versus electric cars not having that personality quirk to really tell them apart- they're all going to be quite similar in "feel" and responsiveness to the throttle. I think in general for more hands on enthusiasts electric will never really quite take over ICE obsession. From a tinkering standpoint, intricate mechanical systems like engines are far more satisfying to pour your hands over when you're rebuilding or modifying an engine than black box electrical systems that you can't really reasonably work on. The act of replacing a physical, actual part instead of plugging in a laptop to twiddle some abstract values is also more gratifying. It's the same reason I imagine that mechanical watches are pretty much universally preferred by watch collectors and enthusiasts over digital ones.

edit:
When I think about it more I guess celebrating inefficiencies/nostalgia/the physical aspect of a hobby is not that different anywhere. Like people still collecting vinyl records, or using real CRTs with refurbished consoles instead of emulating, people into collecting physical books / doing their own book bindings instead of switching to digital etc.
Exactly, it's completely arbitrary. I like to frame it in terms of fitting n points (the existing data in the problem) to a polynomial of degree n+1, where there's an infinite number of ways to pick a solution and still satisfy the initial data.
When he was connected to HN, HN was different than today…for example a much smaller fraction of today’s HN’ers ever knew him…or even know of him. Back then the community was much much smaller and more intimate.

Good luck.

Buying and maintaining your own equipment is a good learning experience in itself. But universities generally don't like it when you host things on their networks, so that should be considered as well.
Right but that sucks. So CC companies/banks are simply shifting risk from one side of the transaction to the other. Sure, as a consumer you don’t have to worry because you’ll get your money back. But if the merchant has to worry and reject customers who are “suspicious” to protect themselves then you’re back to square one, except more kafkaesque. That’s why I said cash is better.

I’d rather have $10 permanently lost for a month of VPS than being banned after 5 days setting it up because I’m traveling and my IP is “suspicious”. Which has happened to me.
> What a fundamentally narrow and depressing point of view.

I want to get work done. Not be a part of some "software taste revolution." If you can't help me get my work done you're not on the list.

It's your point of view that is narrow. If popularity is not material then the loss of a single developer will have no impact and Rust will be the same as it ever was. Otherwise popularity matters and you should endeavor to observe and catalogs Rusts shortcomings so they can be addressed.
Yep, I've worked for two companies where Fortran handles all of a major department's business - in both cases it was buried deep under layers of more modern stuff... but it was hugely risky to change it so it stayed.

It’s a warmed hot dog, a bun, some self-serve condiments, and it’s served by people who can do hundreds of them an hour.

$1.50 might very well cover the cost, but even if it’s a loss leader then it’s entirely negligible.

The mythology around the hot dog price makes people think they’re getting a screaming deal, though. It’s perfect marketing material.
The point of DKMS is to compile kernel modules on the same host where they'll be used, so it needs the private key to be accessible. And isn't DKMS a rather common thing on Linux, e.g., for Nvidia drivers and for VirtualBox?

Yeah, it's quite disappointing when you buy a mid-high end OLED, despite keeping the brightness down and being careful with it, it just suddenly developed huge patches of worn out pixels one day.

I'll probably still stick to OLED though unless there's a new technology that can give me the same blacks and brights; can't keep up with all of the new marketing terms these days so not sure if there is something that can compete but last longer.

So?

Their pro-rata model is a joke. It's designed to favor big labels who btw are also shareholders of Spotify.

For those who don't know, the money of subscriptions goes into a big pot and then it's distributed based on the total number of plays. Which means the subscription I'm paying, for the most part, doesn't go to the artists I listen to but instead goes to the big labels who represent popular artists.

It's as if, back when people bought physical records, Madonna got money when you bought a record from some indie band.
Also we need incentives to convince people to choose to drive lighter and smaller cars. Carrots and/or sticks should be considered.

All the code rewrites from the last several decades would like a word in return.

A bunch of those rewrites managed to miss critical things that were encoded in the existing logic in non-obvious ways. They broke a bunch of workflows that way.

A bunch of others went wildly over-budget and wound up getting shut down before they produced anything usable.

But surely the documentation will tell you all the use cases, and the expected inputs and outputs, right? Right? Oh, you don't have documentation like that? Yeah, then it's used in ways you don't know about, and your rewrite is likely to break them. (And that's true even if you do have such documentation, because it's incomplete.)

Rewrites are hard. They're deceptively hard. They look like they should be easy, and they very much are not.

"But this time we're going to use Rust!" Yeah, but the thing that makes rewrites so hard was never the language, so using Rust isn't going to actually fix it.

uBlock Origin, hands down. Non-shitty, non-corporate adblocker that both works out of the box and offers great customization options? Amazing! UBlock Origin Lite is the best Manifest V3 compatible adblocker, and it's okay (when someone's sharing their screen on Zoom and I see how many ads there are, I'm surprised), but it's not as good.
