41,792,619 | comment | hunter2_ | 2024-10-09T21:06:38 | null | > Many bands without any mainstream success still play pop punk.<p>The irony extends to the fact that while someone can play in the style of pop without being mainstream, they cannot literally be pop until they're popular. But if pop requires being popular and punk requires shunning the mainstream, pop punk couldn't exist. The fact that it does is therefore a bit of a paradox. | null | null | 41,791,836 | 41,790,295 | null | null | null | null |
41,792,620 | comment | pdonis | 2024-10-09T21:06:46 | null | <i>> This doesn't answer my question at all.</i><p>I wasn't trying to answer your question. I was pointing out that your question presupposes that the majority has the power to enforce its will on the minority. It doesn't even consider the possibility that the majority having that power is not a law of physics, it's a social construct, and a society does not have to adopt it.<p><i>> A new city/town/state/country is getting started (let's assume peacefully somehow, this is a thought experiment).<p>Who gets to set those limits on democratic action?</i><p>Again, you're assuming that what gets started is a city/town/state/country as a political entity, with the ability to enforce its will on its residents, and then asking how that power gets regulated.<p>You're not even considering the possibility of a community getting started without <i>anyone</i> having the power to enforce their will on others, with everyone having to deal with everyone else as an equal, and nobody having any "governmental" powers.<p>Historically, such things have happened. For example, saga period Iceland went for several centuries without anyone having governmental powers. Some of the American colonies in the late 1600s and early 1700s--Pennsylvania is a good example--had effectively no one having governmental powers, since while there was nominally a "goverment", it had no ability to enforce its will on residents. These are "other choices" that your question doesn't even comprehend.<p>What happened in those cases? Historically, those societies did fine as long as they were left alone. What eventually ended them was outside interference. Saga period Iceland ended up conquered by Norway. Pennsylvania ended up having its regime tightened up by the British after the French and Indian War (as part of a general tightening up on all the American colonies). | null | null | 41,792,192 | 41,780,569 | null | null | null | null |

I'm no expert, just trying to keep the language/subtitle sets I want, maybe I've missed something here. What I do so far is HB encode to Matroska, not MPEG-4. Then I don't lose any of the ones I want. Also I have noticed sometimes MakeMKV is not entirely inclusive in its defaults and I have to add extra languages/subtitles. | null | null | 41,791,383 | 41,784,069 | null | [

It means Rust has made finally made it mainstream :)<p>---<p>The points, addressed, I guess?<p>- Rust has panics, and this is bad: ...okay? Nobody is writing panic handling code, it's not a form of error handling<p>- Rust inserts Copy, Drop, Deref for you: it would be really annoying to write Rust if you had to call `.copy()` on every bool/int/char. A language like this exists, I'm sure, but this hasn't stopped Rust from taking off<p>- Fetishization of Efficient Memory Representation: ... I don't understand what the point is here. Some people care about avoiding heap allocations? They're a tool just like anything else<p>- Rewrite anything and it gets faster: okay sure, but there are limits to how fast I can make a Py/JS algorithm vs a compiled language, and Rust makes writing compiled code a bit easier. People probably aren't rewriting slow Python projects in C these days<p>- Rust is as complex as C++: ...no, it's not. Rust really hasn't changed much in the past 6 years. A few limitations being lifted, but nothing majorly new.<p>- Rust isn't as nice of community as people think: subjective maybe? People are nice to me at conferences and in discussion rooms. There's occasional drama here and there but overall it's been pretty quiet for the past year.<p>- Async is problematic: Async Rust really is fine. There's a huge meme about how bad it is, but really, it's fine. As a framework author, it's great, actually. I can wrap futures in a custom Poll. I can drive executors from a window event loop. Tokio's default choice of making `spawn` take Send/Sync futures is an odd one - occasionally cryptic compile errors - but you don't need to use that default.<p>I'm unsure why this article is so upvoted given how vapid the content is, but it does have a snappy title, I guess. | null | null | 41,791,773 | 41,791,773 | null | [

Peruse the standard library code, if you want to get a sense of it: <a href="https://github.com/python/cpython/tree/main/Lib">https://github.com/python/cpython/tree/main/Lib</a><p>So you can expect any code that heavily relies on the standard library to be slower than the Rust equivalent.<p>A purely interpreted language implementation (not JIT’d) like CPython is almost always going to have a 10x-100x slowdown compared to equivalent code in C/C++/Rust/Go or most other compiled/JIT’d languages. So unless your program spends the vast majority of time in C extensions, it will be much slower. | null | null | 41,792,418 | 41,791,773 | null | null | null | null |

Would Mark Zuckerberg's employees keep giving him any kind of money for the work they are doing? Would they even give Facebook money, or would they just emit invoices with their own bank accounts as the destination?<p>Billionaires absolutely depend on a very robust system of laws to maintain control of the giant corporations that they own. Zuckerberg couldn't even enter a Facebook building if his employees rebelled against him and the law wasn't protecting him.<p>Note, I'm not trying to single out Zuck in any way, just wanted to pick some billionaire tied to a well known corporation to make the examples simpler. | null | null | 41,789,334 | 41,780,569 | null | null | null | null |

Also, I don't think I have ever needed to actively think about memory management more than .clone() and static for any hobby project I have undertaken. All the ML-like features like sum types, pattern matching etc. add great value. Cargo too. So, it is a great general purpose programming language.

41,792,659 | comment | danudey | 2024-10-09T21:10:14 | null | This is an old example, but - date/time parsing.<p>A coworker of mine years ago was trying to parse out some large logfiles and it was running incredibly slowly (because the log file was huge).<p>Just for fun he profiled the code and found that 90% of the time was spent taking the timestamp ("2019-04-22 15:24:41") into a Python datetime. It was a slow morning, so we went back and forth trying to come up with new methods of optimizing this parsing, including (among other things) creating a dict to map date strings to datetime objects (since there were a lot of repeats).<p>After some even more profiling, I found that most of the slowdown happened because most of Python's strptime() implementation is written in Python so that it can handle timezones correctly; this prevented them from just calling out to the C library's strptime() implementation.<p>Since our timestamps didn't have a timezone specified anyway, I wrote my first ever C module[0] for Python, which simply takes two strings (the format and the timestamp) and runs them through strptime and returns a python datetime of the result.<p>I lost the actual benchmark data before I had a chance to record it somewhere to reproduce, and the Python 3 version in my repo doesn't have as much of a speedup compared to the default Python code, but the initial code that I wrote provided a 47x performance boost to the parsing compared to the built-in Python strptime().<p>Anyone who had a similar Python script and converted it wholesale to Rust (or C or Golang, probably) would have seen a similarly massive increase in performance.<p>[0] <a href="https://github.com/danudey/pystrptime/">https://github.com/danudey/pystrptime/</a> | null | null | 41,792,418 | 41,791,773 | null | [

There were picnic tables out there as well as an enormous barbecue, the engine a salvage job done on an abandoned four-stroke lawn mower. Sundays in summer the truculent and hungover Rabbit would turn up at seven A.M. to begin roasting a pig or a couple of shoulders of beef for the community dinner, all you could eat for five bucks, proceeds to The Old Folks Home in Rock Island. The Rabbit was once dismissed for pissing in the fire. "People was looking and it puts them off their feed." He was fired again for falling asleep in the grass after guzzling his umpteenth Molson and failing to notice that the spit hadn't been revolving properly for more than an hour. Then he beat up an inspector from the <i>Commission de la Langue Francaise</i> outside The Thirsty Boot on the 243. According to reports the inspector had ordered The Thirsty Boot to take down their sign and replace it with a French one. "Sure thing," the Rabbit had said, kneeing the inspector in the groin, just to cut him down to his own height before laying into him. "We're gonna put up a pepper sign all right. Only it's gonna read 'De Tirsty Boot'." After that he could do no wrong. | null | null | 41,790,494 | 41,787,647 | null | null | null | null |

So perhaps they are being interpreted expansively by Canadian jurisprudence.<p>> using genealogy to decide which children may or may not attend English-language schools.<p>Lots of places only let you attend school in the official language. So by letting people who are part of the Anglophone community (i.e., born to Anglophone parents, I guess what you're calling genealogy) attend English-language schools they're making _more_ concessions to the Anglophone minority than is generally accepted as required by human rights. I certainly don't see anyone in the political mainstream claiming that France is committing human rights violations by refusing to set up public schools in languages other than French.<p>> forcing them to make it larger than English even in cases where French is already perfectly visible and legible (i.e. beyond an obvious utilitarian purpose) is just petty revenge<p>It is not petty revenge. Well, maybe it is for some hardcore nationalists. But the more charitable interpretation, that French needs a bit of an extra push (beyond just requiring equal exposure as English) in order to withstand the huge pressure from the surrounding Anglosphere, is reasonable.<p>> I also have to remind that the French are themselves colonial settlers in Canada, and that the requirement that French must be the "predominant language" on signs also applies to bilingual French/Native signs outside of official reservations.<p>I agree with you here. Indigenous people should be able to protect their culture from the dominant surrounding Franco-Quebec culture just like Franco-Quebecers should be allowed to protect their own from the dominant surrounding Anglosphere, and I unreservedly criticize the Quebec government as hypocrites for not allowing them to. | null | null | 41,792,557 | 41,787,647 | null | [

Other languages where joins are syntactically convenient (e.g. datalog) make it much easier to write slow queries, whereas SQL forces you to denormalise tables tables from a syntactical standpoint already, which later translates to performance gains when it comes to semantics.<p>In a sense SQL is the (typewriter) QWERTY of query languages.

41,792,695 | comment | int_19h | 2024-10-09T21:13:10 | null | German has grammatic gender for all nouns, so it is consistent in that regard, at least. I also don't like novel ungendered forms for languages like Spanish ("latinx" etc) for the same reason - they stick out like a sore thumb because they don't fit the overall feel of the language where gender is already a pervasive concept. It's kinda like taking a statically typed language and introducing completely new syntax to omit the type in one very specific case, but not all the others.<p>But English nouns are already ungendered with very few exceptions. Pronouns are also all ungendered except third person singular, so there's a much stronger case here for eliminating the exception in contexts where it really doesn't contribute anything useful.<p>As far as getting offended, I think one has to distinguish between the person getting misgendered being offended themselves vs people getting offended "on behalf" of others (who might actually be rather offended at such misrepresentation of what they actually want). E.g. with Spanish it's far more common for native English speakers to be adamant about "-x", while many native Spanish speakers actively dislike it. | null | null | 41,791,870 | 41,787,647 | null | null | null | null |

Some probably for that reason, some for other. You'd need to interview them to know their actual views. | null | null | 41,792,670 | 41,791,369 | null | [
