Yes, having a full count of people on board seems like a low effort necessary action to be taking especially for emergency scenarios. I assume if the passenger count doesn't match the expected count, especially in the case of a double

Assuming the flight crew does a passenger count or checks seats that should be unoccupied, even a non-full flight would result in getting caught.

Yeah, looks like _only_ the link label gets replaced, otherwise as you suggest it wouldn't be as bad.

Opus got it correct for me. Seems like there is correct and incorrect responses from the models on this. I think testing 1 question 1 time really isn't worth much for an accurate representation of capability.

Just ran the test and seems to have gotten it correct. Okay, let's think through this step-by-step: We know that Sally is a girl and she has 3 brothers. Each of Sally's brothers has 2 sisters. Now, who are these sisters? They must

For #5, I like mesh level retries for a few reasons, but perhaps the biggest is avoiding retry storms by using budgets https://linkerd.io/2.15/tasks/configuring-retries/#retry-bud...

There are a lot of good and bad reasons to adopt a mesh. Some of which might relate to your concerns. The things I like most about them, working in infrastructur: 1. I can have a unified set of metrics for all services, regardless of langua

I agree it is about syntax. But how is it about type safety?

by campbel 3y ago
Operators for primitive types are fine, they are well defined by the language and consistent across programs. Operator overloading is going to change behavior between programs which puts extra cognitive load on the reader. That said, Go sti

Could you explain _why_ they need overloads and functions don't work? That does not immediately follow for me.

by campbel 3y ago
I'm really not a fan of small qol features like this. I think it really hurts readability for the general audience. The function itself is minimal overhead and is clearer to the reader.

In my experience its mostly the input lag when dealing with the remote environment. I'm quite sensitive to delays in editor input, so I prefer something native. If you aren't sensitive or your remote connection is fast enough for

Yes! Optimal designs may not be "elegant" from the human perspective. Reminds me of these complex computer generated airframe designs https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20181129-the-ai-transform... .

Couldn't we do an optional type with the type system as is rather than embedding in the language? type Optional[V any] struct { IsSet bool Value V }

by campbel 3y ago
Also what I do. You could theoretically also create your own type that manages deserialization and includes an "is_set" field.

This is the main drawback I also experience with zero values, knowing whether something was set or its the zero value. Like I said, there are some work arounds, buts its a tradeoff. Perhaps its a tradeoff you don't like.
83.
by campbel 3y ago
I like zero values because when I create a struct I can know for certain accessing a non pointer won't crash the program. That's a pretty good value add. My type system also knows this, so I don't have to worry about assertin

Zero values are fine, some benefits, some drawbacks. Workarounds exist for when you need to identify the difference between unset and zero.

I think there is a difference in competency between using Cloud Compute and running your own Datacenter. Perhaps some companies have the overlap, but I suspect this is an additional skillset they need to cultivate to achieve the savings.

I like the closure so I can take my mind off the task and onto home life. Leaving stuff hanging just means I'll be performing the task mentally all night.
