> If an invariant (something we believe absolutely must be true) is violated, the only sensible thing to do is abort the process. For example, if you set a pointer to NULL and then half an hour later it's time to store a value in that pointer but somehow it's not NULL anymore: clearly something has gone terribly wrong, either in your logic, or potentially in totally unrelated code in some other library which has scribbled on the heap.

Then you return an error and let the caller deal with it.

There is no justification, ever, for a library aborting the caller. Even in the scenario you present, it's still better to let the caller deal with the fallout.

> If execution is allowed to continue, the resultant behaviour is totally undefined: you might corrupt data, or you might allow a permissions check to pass that should have failed, etc.

So? that corrupted data or failed permissions check already happened before the library gets to abort anyway.

Let the caller do whatever they can before the process aborts; don't abort for them before the caller has more context than the library does. If you abort without returning an error to the caller, the caller cannot do things like log "Hey, that previous permission check we allowed might have been allowed by accident".

Your way provides absolutely no upside at all.

Thanks for the counterpoint - absolutely what I was looking for.

Running the agent on the app server seemed a bit risky since it will a) drain resources from the apps and b) needs to have a route open to Azure (Devops)

Most: grep, find, cat, sort, tail, wc, ls, sudo, pgrep.

Interesting: comm: https://linux.die.net/man/1/comm

Compare sorted files FILE1 and FILE2 line by line.

With no options, produce three-column output. Column one contains lines unique to FILE1, column two contains lines unique to FILE2, and column three contains lines common to both files.

-1
suppress column 1 (lines unique to FILE1)

-2
suppress column 2 (lines unique to FILE2)

-3
suppress column 3 (lines that appear in both files)

Weak: adduser/useradd (hard to non-interactive), chmod (could use file/dir filter with -R).

Least: systemctl, journalctl.

hi, few questions,

-who is your ideal user/customer? what stack are they using, and why do they use you?

-why did you decide to work on this? (ie, what inspired you?)

-how do you compare against openapi templated/generated SDKs? ie i use openapi-typescript (https://openapi-ts.dev/) and it is fantastic

-there seem to be some VC backed companies in the space: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40147281, what is your edge?

-as someone who tried to maintain a few SDKs in my non-familiar languages (go, java, c#), i think i definitely see a paid use case for giving the problem to someone else who can maintain a quality SDK, but there are already 3-4 VC backed companies in the space, and i think the existing free tools are not bad if you spend some time with them, what is the gap/thing they're missing?

To be fair, I didn't look at the pricing before leaving my original comment - $9 a month is indeed very well priced.
You're right. I thought that they had, they're all decommissioned for decades, and they didn't buy the helicopter carriers yet either.
What Are Cardputers For? (2024)
Something that my medical professor used to tell us was that sugar and salt are man made things (processed sugar). And not something we found in nature and something that our bodies are not evolutionary developed to handle. So too much of salt and sugar was a good thing.

So which makes sense
The premise of the movie is obviously real. I don't think anyone would debate that. I was referring to the portrayal of the political and social dynamics of the process and the views of the Catholic Church.
The thing with Polars is it's really hard for me to get past the annoyance of having to do `pl.col("blah")` instead of `df.blah`. I find pandas easier for quick interactive work which is basically everything I do with it.
What is the cost of scaling up number of CPUs for parallel processing?

That was always the culprit for me compared to AWS/Athena and BigQuery. They are dirt cheap on analytics workloads when you can parallelize the calculations to 100 CPUs without really paying any extra.

With postgres you are stuck with linear cost for scaling up number of CPUs, so everything is slow anyway.
Low effort responses are disregardable.
Hey, no mocking Jeb and Bill. They brought many a scientific advancement to humanity.
This approach is notable for benefitting from swelling headcount increases

i.e. if you hire 1000 new people, even if only a small fraction will vouch for you, on average you -and everyone else- will benefit by seeing the # of people who listed you in the "top 5 who helped you being productive" increase

The old Google performance review was arguably similar (the managers could still punish their reports, but peer feedback was valued a lot more), but I think that Google swelled in size because of other effects (probably because managers might've been indirectly rewarded by having more reports, despite managers rarely being among the people who others would list as "making you more productive")
The antivirus packages I've been forced to use probably wasted more time than those 13% will ever save.
First General Agent "Manus" Blows Up the Internet
Since 2007 Nvidia has built with CUDA and compatible hardware

- a large and growing ecosystem

- a massive installed base of backwards compatible hardware

- the ability to massively scale delivery of new systems

- and lots lots more

They now have scale that enables them to continue to invest at a level that no competition can do.

None of these are easily reproduced.

As per SemiAnalysis AMD in late 2024 can’t get essential software working reliably out of the box.

It’s easy to say AMD ‘is close to perfecting ROCM’ the reality of competing with Nvidia is much harder.

What if you used a password service, but modified the password it puts in manually (and didn't let it update when you log in)? Would an attacker try variations, or just move on when your password manager-provided login doesn't work?
And why not? should he just allow the owners of capital to extract as much value as possible without actually doing anything, but woe be the worker if he actually tries to free himself.
That hits a nerve for me. Sure I get 20/20 but if the astigmatism doesn't line up I'm going to have a bad time.

Or a separate effect where people whose doctors tell them they’re a diabetes risk tend to make a token switch to artificial sweeteners, but don’t take other, more effective steps.
It's certainly a shame that piracy is a real factor here :(

It should probably be noted, however, that from what I understand, technically speaking, the only reason that piracy is possible in the first place is due to Apple's failures to prevent jailbreaking? iOS apps are encrypted and you need a jailbreak to decrypt them and redistribute them on shady websites. If Apple finally stomps jailbreaking out for good one day (which they are trying to do), then piracy should become impossible even if sideloading becomes an option.

See also: Xbox One has a developer mode that allows unsigned code execution, but that still doesn't allow for piracy because nobody's hacked the console, so nobody can obtain the game binaries to pirate.
Curious, intrinsic motivated, self organized experts, that where free of micro management . You can not value or misery-management the unknown, thus you can not correctly assign resources , thus you can not play it safe. The modern management paradigm and processes are pure poison for innovation.

In a war of desperation , those playing it safe and conservative are instantly out and all the experts get their day in the sun. All the safe choices become coffins for the ideas of the past.
Something nobody mentions is the power draw. This kind of compute horsepower for so little power usage is outstanding.
We can only hope it's the start of a trend. I can't think of a single car feature I would want on a touchscreen instead of a physical control, except I guess something like GPS (which I don't really consider a car feature, but maybe that's just because I'm getting old and curmudgeonly).
Did you mean to say "too much of salt and sugar WASN'T a good thing"?

Isn't sugar sugar, no matter in what form?
You'd have to contact someone to get the secret key from your 1Pass emergency kit, wherever you stored it. That is, unless you can memorize long strings of numbers really well.

> The only thing this tells you that you should try to avoid a billon nested loop iterations in python. In case you didnt know.

Where does the article talk about the billion nested loop at all?
It uses that as an illustration.

I mentioned the problems related to speed and performance of a simple web server as well as code maintainability issues.
What evidence is there to support the claim that Elon Musk is "healthy as an old race horse"?
here is what works for me
- dedicated non progressive glasses, antiglare coating
- no high contrast colors, solarized light, wheat background
- avoid dark background
- redshift for the late work
- constant monitor light, no pwm
- flicker free environment (some leds are horrible)
What does "You will get your vaults locally" mean?

Is it possible to export as a file, take that with you on whatever medium (eg. USB key, CD-ROM, future isolinear chip), put it on a brand new PC you built from scratch and never connected to the internet, and open it in some kind of standalone viewer?
That kind of reversible payment rail can be implemented on top of a base layer like Bitcoin. Like the current banking system, with it's underlying final clearance network between banks.

Worldwide final clearance is a feature not a bug.
> “would eliminate certain circumstances under which homicide is justifiable, including, among others, in defense of a habitation or property,”

> >“What this bill is focused on is someone who goes out in public, picks a fight — and when the victim responds — they shoot them and claim self-defense,”

I don't understand how these two sentences are even compatible. What does shooting a burglar / thief has to do with picking a fight in public with someone then shooting them in self defense?
Does "antioxidant" there just refer to tannin, really? If you like tea strong, it's necessary to add some milk to bind to some of the tannins so it remains drinkable and doesn't try to turn your esophagus to leather.
What are the odds that it’s not a conspiracy but simply someone at Google thinking it’s a brand they heard of and adding the tag? Or is that not how it works?
It doesn't work like that.

In a single payer system, the government is mandated to provide you with health care, since you are paying for it with your taxes (or would be if your income was high enough), no exceptions.

Typical tools of such governments include:

- taxes on products which are deemed of danger to public health, for example taxes on cigarettes in the EU. The government is then mandated to invest these taxes into the health care system

- public health campaigns (ads etc.)

- age restrictions, as they exist on alcohol in the US.

Legislation shifts to represent newest advances in science, yes. That's not per se a bad thing.

Not every country with a single-payer system is an authoritarian communist hellscape, you know.
Is it only released for specific regions? Not available for me.
Wasn't Windows before XP SP2 or Vista absurdly insecure?
These 2 failures could have been easily avoidable both times.

I really wish there was a push in the US government to create and stockpile plutonium-238 and ensure it's readily available, subsidized, and offered for all US probes/rovers/other scientific instruments in space (whether it be for NASA's use who currently has to ration because of how little they have left, or for private use after approval).

Like, why aren't all of space scientific instruments RTG powered like voyager 1 which is still providing useful scientific data 47+ years later. Think about all of the lost scientific insights over the past few decades because either NASA (because of a low stockpile) or private companies like intuitive (from their 2 failures) end up choosing solar panels for their source of power with no other alternative.

Besides the fact that solar panels can fail if they aren't pointed a certain way, they usually offer far less power, and are subject to radiation, micro meteor, or dust damage. All of these are the main reason why these instruments tend to have a far shorter lifespan than voyager 1.
This is utter madness. To even talk about war between the U.S. and China as a possibility...

Saying that China is ready to go to war with the U.S.--or vice versa--is saying that we are all ready to just blow up the last 200,000 years of human progress. For if there would even be any humans left after the first 20 minutes, for generations they would be living lives which were not even worth living.

For the sake of humanity people, we have to stop this madness. Over the last 25 years, the partnership between China and the U.S. has both controlled inflation in the U.S., and raised HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of people out of poverty.

We all get rich...vs.....we all are dead or digging for roots in the ground with sticks for the next 50,000 years....

How long are we going to let this kind of dance with death go on??? We are not enemies. We are partners---a shining example of two nations peacefully making wonderful things happen for their citizens.

Defeats the point of the single binary installation if you have to set up dependencies.
Conrad’s update touched a nerve, where he talked about infrastructure engineering superpowers that aren’t understood by management.

The first is subtle bug analysis which needs almost monomaniacal focus and creativity to solve - and is quite mysterious to less technical folk.

The second is, of course, major refactorings, which result in no discernable difference in functionality of any of the touched components, but which unlock future stability and velocity opportunities.

I’d argue that this is also true for a class of senior software engineers in real codebases.

As a senior tech leader, it was often extremely hard to convince product and financial leaders that this time was well spent!

But where do you store emergency codes? Or secret metadata for things? I think these are common artifacts to accumulate.

A password manager is ideal for these when security is far more than passwords at this point.
I've been ID'ed as a teenager when I was trying to buy Skyrim, which at the time was rated for audiences older than me. Gamestop and electronic retailers also generally didn't have teenage employees.
That sound very reasonable and I'm inclined to agree, but empirically US health care system is the worst I know of. You're only free if you're rich and if you're rich you're not free, cause you've got so much to lose.

And from a more theoretical viewpoint the societal cost of unhealthy people is still there at the least in loss of productivity, so the argument for prohibition is still there and the US is only really liberal in things that are backed by wealthy corporations/people that have subverted the government.

In the end I guess freedom is the straw man here.
When people were told they could smoke from candy-flavored USB-charged devices they jumped back on the train. Education didn't do anything, and no facts are obvious in this new world.

You should also check out the Maple Tree (https://docs.kernel.org/core-api/maple_tree.html).

It's the data structure used to track non-overlapping intervals in the Linux kernel's virtual memory subsystem.

Developers can use whatever features they want, but users can only watch as their computer uses up more and more energy because it suddenly has to perform yet another build step that previously was done on the server.

Yes, having billions poured into creating foods that are as addictive as possible and manipulation campaigns to get people hooked is a much better system.

This system also affects your freedoms in many ways. If a large portion of the population gets fat, you have a smaller pool of people that are able to do physical work, making it more expensive for you. You have a lot more demand for healthcare, making it more expensive for you. You have people demanding car-centric infrastructure because they can't walk, and that will affect you. Etc.

> having to support Windows 11 through Active Directory is a nightmare now. MS has removed almost all admin control in favor of user choice

What does that mean - group policy has many fewer policies? Why would Microsoft do that - it is only used in organizations with IT departments, and they definitely want to automate and lock down configuration.
LA is full of those. Mostly junkies. My girlfriend often has such encounters when she takes the bus. It is awful. I am in Hungary and there is no such issues here. It is extremely safe in comparison. There was a stabbing (one in 30 years) and everyone rushed to help and to catch the perpetuator (who ended up stabbing himself anyways).

BTW I am a junkie myself, but I do not engage in such behaviors at all. And by "junkie" when referring to myself, I mean that I have an addictive personality, but I do take opiates ("only") for my mental and physical problems. I was never a safety hazard for anyone, including myself (there were times when I was, but had nothing to do with drugs). I do it at home (and before going out, too, due to its positive effects on my mobility and pain), and it makes me more emotionally stable. It sucks though, because when people think of opiates, what they picture is homeless people being unconscious on the streets with a needle coming out of their arm. No one could ever tell me that I was ever on opiates and this includes a lot of doctors. For one, it affects me differently (just like any other psychiatric medications and other drugs).

Anyways, yeah, junkies are an issue in LA and it pisses me off that my girlfriend has to always pay a lot of attention because one never knows what they might do. They are also loud, they create conflicts, and so forth.

It's the first time I hear about static recompilation. I didn't know you can recompile something to run on a different architecture and OS.
For anyone wanting to avoid this mystery, putting the game aside, I highly recommend NixOS. It has its quirks, but the declarative configuration basically forces you to document each system, circumventing many of the issues satirised (?) with this game.

It still gets complicated if you have many interconnected devices to manage of course, but at least it limits the obscurity of the most complex devices in your network.

I'm open to alternatives though, if anyone has some to share.
Gives me 80's vibes; keep going, Ferris. There's a game to play.
