What, you mean like creating a transaction where if one component does something then the second component fails, the first one should revert? Again, wrong design. Like I said, it's very difficult to do well. Consider alternate archite

I'm pretty sure the sibling comment is right, though. Just like original Google, they will give you the summaries, then when they will slowly win the battle, they will start product placements galore in the summaries.

You are not wrong, but the source of the problem may not be the domain but poor software design. If the software base is full of gotchas and unintended side-effects then the source of the problem is in unclean separation of concerns and tig

This approach has its benefits: excellent infrastructure, clean cities, well maintained countryside, low crime rate and less pressure to "do, do, do it now!" Not everything is about money. That said, the global economy is about th

For one, snippets is exactly where you don't get good language comparisons. For example, python is AFAIK the lead language to get something done quickly. At least as per AoC leaderboards. It's a horrible language to have in produc

Well, that's a good point. Why? I think one of the reasons is that if you think it's better and see how other users are struggling with all the bs these companies are throwing at them, it's only natural that you would suggest

Well, I think none of it is true, neither meritocracy neither ignoring it. Instead, we have a society of marketing and sales. If you can convince someone you can do it, you get the job (both as an employee or as a contractor or as a firm).

Agreed, I was just trying to answer the parent's question as to what it is.

SQS is simple queueing service in AWS. It's ok, guarantees at least one time delivery, but I am not sure how useful it is for large volumes of messages (by this I just mean that we use it for low volume messages and I don't have e

Mice? No, too many predators. Now, crows that would be a different matter. Already seen in the movie "Birds" ;)

That's an interesting take but I think it's unlikely for two reasons: 1. In any case you view it, it's not trivial, which was the statement in the note. If it were, the effort to publish just for n=4 would be silly, because i

Well, true, we cannot be 100% certain, but if he published the proof to n=4, we can say it's most likely he did not find the general proof.

Yeah, I just figured out how to simply reconcile general relativity and quantum mechanics, but I am writing on my phone and it's too tedius to write here.

Emm, what? Why? If you mean two processor words, which I gather from what you are saying, then I think you are already in the space of full memory barriers. In that case, why not just say, ideally it would be 256K words, or whatever?

Indeed. Well, FWIW, the title translated into my native Slavic language would also make no sense with a question mark. What's interesting is that both How... and How does... would translate into the same words but with a dot or a quest

Ok, so I have to admit I started skimming soon, because after explanation of `jj new`, I thought this is just `git commit --allow-empty`. Oh, and you can specify the message! Add `-m` and you are done. Then it's a series of either git

They should use the LLM to do the refactoring for them. Only half joking, though. Dogfooding is big at the place I work at and they should do it too.

And who decided that? Why not XML? That's backwards reasoning. XML was too complicated, so they decided on a simpler JSON.

So, I just looked it up, thinking I might have overlooked something but, at least according to wikipedia, REST does not prescribe the format of the data transferred. So, I don't understand why you are comparing REST to xml, yaml, json

by prerok 1y ago
What are HTTP blobs? I think you meant that is why JSON won instead of XML?

I agree with your assessment about this statement. I actually had to reread it a few times to actually understand it. He is actually recommending Copilot for price/performance reasons and his closing statement is "Don’t fall for t

It's tedious, I agree, but I found it easiest to just wrap it in an inline function defined and called there and then. This alleviates all these problems of unlocks within if bodies at the cost of an indent (and maybe slight performanc

We know plants have a diurnal cycle and react to sun/day and some visibly change between night and day. If we say that one of these states is less active, we may decide to call it dormant. Dormant comes from latin dormire, which is sle

Across animal kingdom. And you don't think different criteria might apply to plants? I mean, look, we are just discovering how plants function as a society. They are immobile and 4 and 5 might be caused by the fact that an animal is mo

By which criteria? They do respond to daily cycles. How do you know they do not sleep?

Fair enough. At which point do these non applicabilities make you think that the fact of putting your faith in science is bad? I mean, I tried to point out that science is a process, and yes, laws come with caveats. Some of them are known i

Capital of the 21st century by Piketty. Highly recommended reading. It points out how slow degradation will happen. You are right in a sense. But it's still a very bad prognosis.

Ooh, well, the next time I buy FreshAir (sorry Perri-Air) from Druidia, I'll make double-sure to check who breathed it before.

Indeed, and frequently you will see that leaves are a much darker hue of green than the ones exposed directly to sunlight. So, using the same mechanism, still more is absorbed if light is scarce.
