In programming Idiomatic is used to reference a programming language’s “best practices” and “style guide”. Obviously programming languages can solve problems in many different ways, but they often develop a “correct way” that matches their design or the personality of their influential community members. Following this advice is Ideomatic. Next time your coworker has their style wrong you can say “I don’t think this is Idiomatic” :D
A lot of it was that their reason to buy the Tesla in the first place was to support the mission rather than as a car.

Tesla was considered a positive force for people who cared about climate. It’s priorities have changed dramatically, with Tesla profits having helped put a climate change denier in the White House.
Yes and no. On a spherical cow, units convert without cost. In the real world, someone ordering GW-hours of batteries is buying differently from someone buying W-hours. The prices of batteries at various scales have moved differently, with small batteries having become cheaper faster than big ones.
This technique was published in Phrack(?) around 25 years ago and it was thought to no longer work at that time. I guess the old cons really are the best.

CI should reject the feature branch if the linter fails. Never waste an engineer’s time doing work a program can do.

It’s also often handy to configure linters and autoformatters as precommit hooks.
All things considered, although I'm in favor of Anthropic's suggestions, I'm surprised that they're not recommending more (nominally) advanced statistical methods. I wonder if this is because more advanced methods don't have any benefits or if they don't want to overwhelm the ML community.

For one, they could consider using equivalence testing for comparing models, instead of significance testing. I'd be surprised if their significance tests were not significant given 10000 eval questions and I don't see why they couldn't ask the competing models 10000 eval questions?

My intuition is that multilevel modelling could help with the clustered standard errors, but I'll assume that they know what they're doing.
It does do something, even if the police don’t: Filing a false police report is itself a crime in most jurisdictions so being willing to do. Demonstrates to the insurance company that you’re operating in good faith.

I don't think we disagree, perhaps even on the point of responsibility for how we got here. I do certainly blame the social media companies for the software they built. I guess my only point is that the personal responsibility shouldn't be understated, as we all have agency over the issue, but it is too tough to rip the bandaid off for most which I understand.

I will say there are many ways to mitigate without leaving entirely, but it will be up to one's own discipline to disengage from the platform and manage your own behaviour while you visit.

> Enforce a code quality standard with a linter and formatter and be done with it

Adopting a linter does not eliminate style issues. It just eliminates the number of possible comments a PR can get over style issues by replacing all detailed feedback with just one comment with a very clear actionable request that's trivial to satisfy: "It seems X doesn't look right. Could you please run the linter?"

At least here people, including my grandparents who lived through WOII, lived outside cities, had to travel hours for work and worked the land for food. They had 10 kids and they helped in the household and on the land (only for their own food: animals, veg and fruit) while the dad was away 12+ hours of the day (4+ hours commute) (my dad also travelled 4+ hours every day for work by the way; fairly normal in the 80s here; not sure what happened). This is still just possible; you don't need to live in a city and, again at least where I live, the prices drop sharply only a few hours drive from every large city (1.5m euro vs 1000s to 10ks for land and houses). Everyone can afford a house or land, but everyone wants to live on the city where they generally can't. If you want to raise (many) kids, you can choose the same life as my grandparents had (who also could not afford a house in the big city but wanted one so built multiple (one for them and later for their kids including my parents) with their own hands in a small village), but it's not an easy thing; it never was an easy thing.
Additionally, reply threads in Twitter make no sense. I'll be following a discussion about sports, and there would be a random (bot? ad?) off-topic post every 4th or 5th reply.

I can't help but see people who design social media algorithms to be complete sociopaths: they want to control people's communications and butt in with "recommendations" completely unwelcome, instead of just letting the participants drive the discussion themselves.
You're not big enough or important enough to attract attention from the Gov. Depending on your suppliers, you might not be that significant to them either.

This is one of the weirder design changes that Gimp made, and it wasn't always that way. IIRC, the "save" option worked as you described in 2.0 but changed to the newer behaviour in either 2.2 or 2.4. Baffling because it really does change the workflow and coupled with the GTK+ load/save dialog boxes, it really has become much less intuitive than it used to be.

I may not have been as clear as I should have been.

I was making a distinction between killing and murder. All murders are killings, not all killings are murders. If you kill somebody it may be acceptable or it may not be. Killing somebody in defense of another is fine so long as you are intending to protect the innocent not to kill. You may end up killing, but it would not be murder and as such would be justifiable.

Bringing up the latitude and interpretation is a major problem some Christians have, but this is a modern problem. The Church, historical, had always believed there needs to be people involved to help guide people. The Bible itself makes the point in Acts 8: "So Philip ran to him and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet and asked, “Do you understand what you are reading?” And he said, “How can I, unless someone guides me?” And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him."

You are highlighting a reason why somebody shouldn't just read the Bible and assume they know what it means. This is a problem that only applies to a portion of the Protestant churches not the remaining Protestant churches or the Churches that existed before the reformation (Catholic, Orthodox, etc).

You bringing up English translations is why I was making it clear that murder was a more accurate way of understanding the decree against killing. I knew if I didn't specify that it was only murder, somebody would ask about war. Apparently I wasn't clear enough.

Can you find a single prominent Christian or Jewish scholar, theologian, saint, etc who lived 1000 years ago who believed that Jesus was allowing suicide?

Like I said, this is a modern problem because some Christian churches have gone off the rails and have rejected the traditional views held by the Church. They are clearly wrong. Using them as justification for something is ridiculous. Imagine if somebody said Stalin / Mao / whoever was a communist. Communists are atheists so that means atheists can kill people like those people did. You would argue that those people do not represent an accurate description of atheists. Just as you would reject that argument against atheists, I reject your argument against Jews and Christians.
Literally the post in the OP, which linked this post by Brian Krebs:

> A Canadian man who says he’s been falsely charged with orchestrating a complex e-commerce scam is seeking to clear his name. His case appears to involve “triangulation fraud,” which occurs when a consumer purchases something online — from a seller on Amazon or eBay, for example — but the seller doesn’t actually own the item for sale. Instead, the seller purchases the item from an online retailer using stolen payment card data. In this scam, the unwitting buyer pays the scammer and receives what they ordered, and very often the only party left to dispute the transaction is the owner of the stolen payment card.

The vast majority of accounts that followed me on Twitter over the last year are obvious bots.
I care.

I don't particularly care which one you choose - although I admit to having a preference - but I want that style consistently applied throughout the project, so I'm not stumbling over stylistic differences as I'm scrolling through code trying to investigate something.

And keep in mind that this particular example, that some people can read clearly, is just five lines. When you're looking at a 3k line file, one of the dozen you're digging through during an outage, that shit matters.
It's a bit of a clumsy rewording, but it pairs with the opening line that mentions Jimmy Buffett's "Margaritaville". In the song, the narrator eventually laments that "some people claim that there's a woman to blame, but I know it's my own damn fault".
> then I would point out that it’s very unwise to build a business whose success is based entirely on the whims of another business.

When that other business is a monopoly, what choice do you have? The rise of google has effectively killed all other sources of traffic. Web sites used to get their traffic from things like webrings, directories and a variety of smaller search engines. Now? Google, or one of its properties, and to a smaller degree Meta are basically it. The curator and community discovery model is a victim of google, not a solution to it.

A pleasant color and a pleasing font good a long way. You can spend very little time and no money.
Alas, you are mistaken.

Simply put: there's a huge difference between being outright conquered, occupied, and subject to the control of a puppet regime (like Poland, Ukraine, Greece), and the local regime proactively deciding to form an alliance (as did the governments of Hungary, Finland, and Romania). Even if that decision was made under a considerable degree of duress.

That's just the basic storyline of the war. And it's all I have time for. But trust me, just take another look at the basic event chronology and you'll easily see why.
The first two paragraphs of the article specifically talk about a study done on Waterloo & City coming to a negative conclusion.
For the different workloads it is more that all the nodes in the cluster are the same and mixing memory with cpu intensive or io intensive workloads is hard to schedule or to get to a proper utilisation rate. Next to that when indeed setting request and limit properly it means that our Java apps use/reserve multiple cores even when handling little traffic and basically idling. Golang apps scale better there, especially towards 0.

When running on “bare” VMs each VM is its own member in the network. The pods in the cluster use an overlay network and egress is limited to egress nodes which are now shared by all workloads.

Having dedicated K8s clusters would reduce the sharing of network ingress and egress as well as choose the vm size for my workloads.
You can run a model with substantially similar capabilities to Claude or ChatGPT locally, with absolute data privacy guaranteed. Whereas with Claude or ChatGPT, all you can do is trust and hope they won’t use your data against you at some point in the future. If you’re more technically minded, you can hack on the model itself, the sampling method, etc., and have a level of fine-grained control over the technology that isn’t possible with a cloud model.
> they didn't just stick their head in the sand nor did they continue those ways since "everyone" else did, otherwise we would still have slavery.

Slavery didn't end in the US until the end of the Civil War in 1865—246 years after the first enslaved people arrived in Jamestown. It's grossly unfair to take the eventual success of abolitionism to try to argue that there must have been less German opposition to Nazism than American opposition to slavery.

For the vast majority of American history, nearly everyone did "just stick their head in the sand" and "continue those ways". At best they fought to avoid expanding slavery, trying to keep it contained to the South.

For people who "stood up, said no to slavery, and lost lives because of it" you might be thinking about the likes of John Brown, but he died in 1859. If Nazism took as long to abolish as American slavery we'd have expected a John Brown to come along around the year 2173. Instead, we have dozens of well-known stories of opposition starting from before Hitler even took power.

> Media rushed to say it's not really a kill switch, just "sensors or cameras to monitor the driver’s behaviors, head or eye movements" and "block the driver from operating the vehicle". So... a kill switch.

You're selectively quoting in a way that misrepresents the article.

The post the article quotes:

> “Joe Biden signed a bill that would give law enforcement access to a ‘kill switch’ that will be attached to ALL new cars in 2026,” read several posts shared widely on Twitter and Facebook.

The actual functionality:

> In either case, if a driver is found to be impaired [by automated monitoring within the car], the car might employ a warning message, block the driver from operating the vehicle, or if the vehicle is already in motion, direct it to a safe stop or automated ride home.

> None of the technologies currently in development would notify law enforcement of the data collected inside vehicles or give government agencies remote control of vehicles, according to Jeffrey Michael, a researcher at Johns Hopkins University’s Center for Injury Research and Policy.

The car has an automatic system which can prevent the driver from operating it, but no one outside the car can trigger that system, which is clearly what the "kill switch" posts were claiming.
Yeah, I've heard arguments for this, and it always feels weird to me. Why go so long without review? That's just giving developers - junior and senior - opportunity to dig themselves into a hole that they don't notice until someone points out, "hey, your last five commits are buggy, but that matters less than the fact that they're implementing the wrong thing."
What are you saying is "not meant to be interactive"? That's not true of pipes in general, or of grep in general.

Or, even if it is true of pipes, then we need an alternate version of a pipe that signals not to buffer, and can be used in all the same places.

It's a real problem either way, it just changes the nature of the problem.

> The proposed fix makes the contract a lot more complicated.

How so? Considering programs already have to deal with terminals, I'm skeptical a way to force one aspect of them would be a big deal.
Bugs. Subtle horrible bugs that can take forever to find. Not having the braces makes it so easy to accidentally break in later changes or refactoring. Sure on its own it's super obvious, but next to other changes or refactoring it is really easy to miss that suddenly logic falls out of the condition or doesn't make sense anymore.

I don't remember the details but I've had some typo in a one-line-if-condition once and it took me days to find it. Might have been an accidental semicolon in C. A linter enforced the braces and line-breaks and made it obvious.

Anyways, running a linter also helps because all anger or frustration can be directed towards the machine.

You could even take the "public domain image" idea and still make something that looks nothing like an O'Reilly book.

For example, here are some images from Library of Congress with crabs in them that I think could make for interesting book covers:

- https://www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/fsa.8a23704/ "Residents of Raceland, Louisiana, eating crabs at crab boil" (1938 Sept.)

- https://www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/jpd.00748/ "Benkeigani to tsubaki" (between 1825 and 1830)

- https://www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/ppmsca.69838/ "Frozen crabs at a restaurant" (January 1954)

- https://www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/highsm.14204/ "The Barking Crab restaurant on the Fan Pier across the Northern Bridge from downtown Boston, Massachusetts" (between 1980 and 2006)

- https://www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/ds.00242/ "Cancer" (latin name for crab, you'll probably want to edit the image to avoid any unfortunate connotations) (1825)

But before picking any of these or other images from the Library of Congress, check the "about this item" link and see in particular the "Rights Advisory", including any links to further details about rights and usage in that field, and keep also in mind things like what is pointed out in one of those links; "Privacy and publicity rights may also apply". IANAL, TINLA.
Reddit, Instagram, Facebook, Tik Tok, even YouTube (Google property but not Google the search engine) are all paths to discovery. To a lesser degree sites like HN. There's also nothing actually stopping anyone from going to Bing or something. My Chrome browser takes me to Bing if I type in it or change the search engine...

Also de-ranking SEO spammers is a net positive IMO.

I agree with you that the modern corporate world seems to be allergic to anything that doesn't promise immediate profits. It takes more than a monopoly to have something like Bell Labs. To be more precise, monopolies tend to have the resources to create Bell Labs-style research labs, but it also takes another type of driving factor to create such a research lab, whether it is pleasing government regulators (I believe this is what motivated the founding of Bell Labs), staying ahead of existential threats (a major theme of 1970's-era Xerox PARC was the idea of a "paperless office," as Xerox saw the paperless office as an existential threat to their photocopier monopoly), or for purely giving back to society.

In short, Bell Labs-style institutions not only require consistent sources of funding that only monopolies can commit to, but they also require stakeholders to believe that funding such institutions is beneficial. We don't have those stakeholders today, though.
On the flip side, I've seen "funny" videos from Japan where there is staff at the stations who push passengers in to fit everyone as much as possible?

> It's impossible for any code formatter to be 100%. Where to put a blank line? Where to break a line?

Not true. Those are objectively covered by any linter.

> How to name a variable/function?

Unless the issue is things like snake_case vs PascalCase, that's not the job of a linter. That's exactly what PR comments are about.

> Some try (e.g. prettier), and what you end up is frankly just bizarre code that's just ugly.

Not true. Without Prettier you always get bizarre code that's just ugly. You don't notice because you paid no attention to the code you wrote, it followed your personal subjective opinion you happened to have at that moment, and you didn't felt strongly enough to verify it.

Without a linter, others would certainly point out the problems they saw in your PR as that would certainly not comply with their personal subjective opinion they might hold at that moment and not before or after.

The importance of Prettier is that it objectively enforces a set of rules. If it's ugly it's because you configured it to be ugly, but it's less of a problem because it will be objectively, systematically and reproducibly ugly.

Yes, I'm saying that being forced to make concessions to a more powerful ally doesn't make them "entirely under the control of Germany". Furthermore, the loss of territory you mentioned was before the coup that put Antonescu in power and had Romania join the Axis.

You wrote your initial comment stating a patent falsehood: that Romania was "basically under German occupation". It was under nothing of the sort. Their fascist dictatorship eagerly helped the Germans and it's officially considered part of the Axis (just not one of the major three powers).

> (like for example what you wrote about the Einsatzngruppen troops)

Romanian troops participated in the Odessa massacre and, as one of the Axis nations other than Germany most involved on the Eastern Front, participated in Einsatzkommando actions.

And the point still stands: Romanian Jews certainly don't remember the Germans "fondly".
