The grandparent post is incorrect. H/w silicon validation or constrained random testing hasn't been the norm for 10 years, it's at least 20, which us when I first got into that industry. And yes, we had coverage driven verif

I agree. SemVer doesn't give you permission to make breaking changes -- it documents your decisions, assuming you're honest with SemVer. This is very very useful. You can look at a library or dependency and weigh out if frequent

The content was never about the $200M and the listeners/readers probably never even cared about helicopters with bags of money.

Exactly. "Blogs" might be dead -- also, many blogs are still the best content on the internet. Democratizing both the newspaper column and the radio show is great -- so many interesting voices out there.

I think QML was originally designed as "mobile first", but I think it works fine for desktop interfaces as well. I wrote an app that ran on Android as well as Windows and I liked it just fine for that task.

The only issue with declarative is when declarative is a prison instead of a fantastic and reasonable guideline. One of the very nice things about react is that you can escape pure declarative syntax to use actual javascript/typescrip

I find QML satisfactory for big screens. Made an app back in Qt5 and my main dev machine was a 4K, 43 inch LCD TV -- it did fine on the big screen. No limitations in that regard that I could see.

They need to dogfood their foundry service from their chip design and keep the same interface for both in-house and external so the pain points are ground down.

Culture is just social technology. Common patterns and routines for behaving in certain situations or ways to interact with people. It can be good. It can be bad. It can be useful. It can be deleterious. If a specific piece of social tech

ORM's always abstract away details, but you monitor for slow queries and slow endpoints and then just fix the issues when they crop up.

It is fine to expose Rust to the internet. We do so at my company. The python api at our company is more worrysome than the rust-written api.

We're all stuck in the quagmire of Oracle databases, licenses, and lawsuits, because no open source alternatives exist. What a shame that open source hasn't deterred any monopolies and can't possibly do so in the future.

For fruit, the price negotiation always tries to drive down the price, but there are something like 10 big buyers of fruit in USA alone, so Coscto and Walmart don't have a monopoly and the fruit sellers go elsewhere when the buyers tur

That sounds like Walmart, but not Costco. Costco does have tough buyers who negotiate prices, but they really truly have higher quality standards. This was what I saw being on the other side for a company that sold fruit to both Walmart a

If you cut off the lower tail of an IQ curve, no matter how little, you've just raised the average IQ of everyone remaining. If they're in that low IQ tail and they go through the hoops for a waiver, you've just selected for

Another factor is that the military parents have cleared a bar of pre-enlistment testing (ASVAB?) that has strong correlations with IQ testing.
