We’re saying the same thing.

I honestly don’t know much about B&H as a business but I’m a frequent customer. I have bought several expensive camera bodies and lenses from them, countless camera accessories, and it’s often the first place I look for all electronics. NAS, hard drives, cables, that sort of thing. I like buying from B&H because I trust them, they have fast shipping, and I’ve never had a bad experience.

It’s a high quality store. I value high quality and I like that they value high quality over maximizing profit. That makes me a loyal customer, and unless something changes about the quality of B&H, I probably will be for a long time. I don’t care that their online store is occasionally closed; it’s never been an inconvenience to me. And if it ever is, the quality of the store more than makes up for the minor convenience of waiting a couple days to buy something. When it comes to my gear and equipment, I’m rarely in such a rush that I’m willing to compromise quality for speed. I imagine a lot of other B&H customers feel the same way.

Ha, seems the "Self-Torture" is a bit tongue in cheek here, seems pretty straight forward to me.

Capistrano was simpler times that's for sure, but this doesn't too seem much more complex so far.
How would they even be able to fix it, short of redirecting all their domains to stackexchange.com subdomains (and causing a colossal branding mess and making everyone mad)? Almost by definition, anything that would allow them to know you've accepted cookies on a different domain would be a form of tracking that all the anti-tracking stuff would clamp down on.

Shut out? They came of their own volition to a nation known to primarily speak English, did not learn English or have a means to communicate in English, and that's on us if we don't bend a knee? I can tell you any american living in France, they're gonna find situations where businesses say straight up (in French), speak French or I won't help you. I guess those poor Americans were just getting shut out

I don't remember the part of that scenario where a scan is taken of the ship and uploaded to a server.

I long ago accepted that my image of self is a sort of illusion. That things I consider other, like microbes in my gut, constitute a large portion of me. And I change over time. Even the memories I have are copies of copies.

But all that happens in a continuity. Being uploaded is a stark difference and a disconnect that I cannot philosophically reconcile.
_log(f”My variable is {x + y}”)

or

_log(“My variable is {z}”.format(z=x+y))

It’s nothing too profound.

In BM's defense, I think it needs to be that way to a point, to have the viewer react and acknowledge these downsides within their current frame of reference.

It can be hard to swallow both a world that has evolved for 10~20 years, and also think about a whole new paradigm that matches that unfamiliar world.

I don't think he's said, but he has written some shockingly creepy stories himself, like the Halloween special which suggests Jon died or moved out ages ago and Garfield is just hallucinating due to starvation and despair. He claimed he wrote it after a market survey indicating that loneliness is what people fear the most (this is a pattern with Davis - he always cheerfully claims he's just in it for the money whenever someone suggests he has any kind of artistic vision).

Or the one in "Garfield: his 9 lives" where a different incarnation of Garfield goes suddenly feral and kills the elderly woman owning him. Jim Davis didn't draw it, but he did script it!

I was thinking about this today and the best thing I could come up with is to volunteer at a food bank, homeless shelter, veteran assistance effort, or something meaningful to those that need it. Anything to directly connect my desire to change society to a kinetic action with real people. I’m not rich but still able-bodied and I work in tech. I’m always drifting off thinking about building something, a fence, minor repairs to a home, or even fixing a car where my hands could be more useful. Our country as portrayed through these digital devices is not the same nation we live in. Those people are there to monetize your anger and frustration, contempt, and outrage. Deny them thes responses and uplift your communities instead. You’ll feel better for it. I will feel better for it. Thank you and be safe!

I don't know where you are located. But, in my experience living in a major city you can walk past 1000 perfectly nice people in a day and also one or two jerks. Who do you remember five days later? Do you remember Nice Person #385? Inconsequential Person #722? No. You remember Jerk #3. He sticks with you for a long time.
I don't like teleportation that much either. But at least there is meat on the other end. Uploading is an entirely different mode of existence.

He always cheerfully said this whenever someone suggests he had any kind of artistic vision.

I'd say there are things which suggest he's not entirely sincere about that.
Garfield always struck me as having exhausted all available novelty almost immediately. Simpsons at least was able to do 5-10 seasons (depending on your taste), but there is only so much one can do with 3 panels and a handful of characters eh?

I think he kept his slot more out of nostalgia and risk adversion from the papers than anything else.

Garfield Minus Garfield is an iteration of a trend on SA and FYAD of editing Garfield comics by re-ordering panels, removing panels, removing characters/dialogue/etc, and shuffling panels from other Garfield strips to make humorous and/or unsettling mashups.

That is to say the trend predates the 2008 launch of the site.

That is really nice actually!

this could theoretically be used as a scriptesto alternative but it requires some command to run , I was hoping there was a way to use something other than shebang
Cheese as a standalone course was a thing in Italy too, after the other courses, and it disappeared in recent decades.

You can see remnants in pop culture, e.g. in the '80s we had a tv quiz show called "il pranzo è servito" ("lunch is served") where participants had to win rounds for each of: first course, second course, cheese, dessert, fruit.

There was also a saying in central Italy "la bocca non è stracca se non sa di vacca" ("the mouth is not tired unless it tastes of cow", which in hindsight is odd cause there's mostly sheep cheese there) but by the '90s the cheese plate had switched to antipasti only, IME.
Hmm, when I think “old Internet” I don’t think Napster, IE, WAP… I think usenet, gopher, telnet MUDs, IRC netsplits and FTP warez.
I wonder whether the cheese would ripen better and get better structure, less defects/voids, if it were subjected to the sound vibrations from Italian opera singing records playing during those months of ripening.

Kind of a pointless debate point (and economic plan) as it will always come down to humans and market conditions. Where the humans are who specialize and have deep experience in that stuff chose to work. You cant really fake that stuff via subsidization over long periods without also having all the other pieces of the market in place (all the way from low level workers to capital markets to regulatory environments and even attractive living costs)... otherwise Canada and EU would have grown a larger tech industry by now via their gov programs.

There has to be strong organic production and only then can gov help tip the scales upward, instead of generating it from thin air at the top level. If no one is fleeing China to do it in the US the same way people fled American market conditions to build stuff in Asia it won't happen.

Creating a forced siloed market through tariffs is probably the least efficient and most expensive method to achieving it. But it can plausibly if the domestic market gets used to not buying the nice things the rest of the world has for a decade (similar to what western gov is choosing to do with banning Chinese EVs but applied a thousandfold).
> Basically in a nutshell he’s saying they dumbed down golang so it’s useable by beginners.

He's saying that developers can't handle Coq (the brilliant language), so they had to build a language that is like every other commonly used language, for better or worse.

> A failure in language development

As brilliant as Coq truly is, he's not wrong, is he? It is no coincidence that nobody is using Coq to build web servers. Which is, after all, what Pike said Go was designed for – that it was not intended to be a general purpose programming language. The vast majority of developers, even outside of Google, truly can't grasp it... And of even the scant few developers who can, they will tell you that the tradeoffs aren't worth it for something like a run-of-the-mill CRUD web server.

Your, being a researcher who does understand Coq, perspective is interesting from an academic angle, but Pike's point is that you don't understand the realities of engineering. This "Use Coq or you are no better than a Trump supporter" shows he was exactly on point. Cry as you might, nobody is going to be using Coq to build web servers, and for good reason.
This is sick. I know Classilla, our last somewhat modern web browser, was having issues with SSL/TSL stuff at the end. Maybe this opens the door for some smart hero to revive it a bit.
How hard can it be? Just tell them where to put the solder.
`str.format` allows the format string to navigate through indexes, entries, and attributes. If the result of the formatting is echoed back and any non-trivial object it passed in, it allows for all sorts of introspection.

printf-style... does not support any of that. It can only format the objects passed in.
You can do better than 2 bytes. Use the same epilogue, but store a copy of the "binary" just before the stack pointer and offset the instruction pointer from the start of the binary by 1 byte. If you use the binary consisting of literally a one-byte value, 0x2A (i.e. 42), then your first instruction will be the first instruction of the epilogue which will pop the "binary" into RDI setting RDI to 42. There are maybe some details in the alignment, padding, and instruction choice in the loader to make that work "generically", but that strategy should work and give you a 1-byte solution.

edit: Actually, just define your binary format so that the first byte is copied to the stack and all subsequent bytes are copied to text with the epilogue appended to it.

edit: You could also define it so that the first byte is copied into the first argument register/RDI if you want to shrink loaded RAM usage to just 4 bytes of code and 1 byte of data.

This is of course assuming it is a "generic" binary format that is not literally just encoding the contents of the tiny program. Otherwise you could do 0 bytes and just have the loader pre-fill RAX with 60 and RDI with 42 and insert a one instruction epilogue consisting of syscall. You could technically still call that a "generic" binary format since any actual binary you attempt to load will just blow away those pre-filled GPR values.
Completely agree. More trying to highlight where you can find them, as many people are just stumped as there's nothing outside.
I'm still not following.

I get studies and exp. But that's different than rolling out a default behavior to all users, which still requires safe velocity guardrails so you don't Crowdstrike yourself.
Really cool to see a language make concurrency and parallelism its primary goal, rather than an afterthought.

(yes I know erlang/elixir exists, but Crystal seems bent on being CPU-fast too!)
This will prevent re-submission but still be confusing for the user. Why even allow submitting when navigating back? If the order has been submitted already, the submit button should be greyed out with a message saying that the order has been submitted already.

The original task was to do this without JS, so my first guess would be: Instruct the browser to re-load the page upon navigating back (cacheability headers), identify the order using an ID in the URL, then when reloading detect its already-submitted state on the server.
Did not find anything old, really weird, I was expecting 500 BC boxes
Can second about the concurrency syntax! Did a small comparison with Go a few years back [1].

I my tests I have got the feeling it is causing a lot less gotchas with blocking go-routines and such. Not sure why that is though.

Surprised to hear about the multi-core performance though! That is super interesting.

We need more healthy disagreements in general. Otherwise people have skewed worldviews and resentment, because people's beliefs don't disappear when they're not spoken (and challenged, and tested), they get stronger.

I'm well aware I contribute to this problem: I try not to cause conflict, especially today. But at least I respect and tolerate others even when I strongly disagree with them. And I do push back, but try to do so diplomatically.
Old internet was something different socially for subcultures, especially DIY subcultures and communities.

You just don't connect with people the same way on giant message boards or platforms like Reddit where you're one user out of a billion.

It was just... Smaller and personal, I guess?

It feels like everything today is optimized for monetization, ads, tracking, etc.

I guess I could summarize it as saying the internet went mainstream and changed its audience and charm.

Just to awnser the question why not using windows. Here are some ideas why the author might have used nix instead:

- reproducible (with minor adjustments even on non-WSL systems)

- if you are used to nix, there is not much which beats it in terms of stability, maintainability, upgradability, and fun (?)

- additional services are typically easier to set up like tailscale-acl, used by the author, which uses pulumi under the hood

- despite some downsides (disc speed was an issue when I used it), WSL is surprisingly capable
