41,793,701 | comment | replete | 2024-10-09T22:58:39 | null | I personally think that the best alternative is statamic. I've built two large sites with it without touching a line of PHP. No themes or crazy plugin dependencies in the manner of Wordpress, so its a roll everything yourself type deal, but the data model building GUI is excellent. Not super interested in selling/explaining it, but certainly I would look into it as a viable alternative - it works how I think CMS's should work, incredibly refreshing after building websites for 20 odd years. | null | null | 41,792,972 | 41,791,369 | null | null | null | null |
41,793,702 | comment | IceDane | 2024-10-09T22:58:40 | null | This post is really something.<p>While it is obviously full of interesting internet history and technical details and a bunch of good points about, well, software architecture in general, it was extremely hard to get through. It's way, way too long and makes me think that this person really loves the sound of his own voice.<p>The author is a perfect example of an enlightened centrist. The post starts out with a (way too long) self-righteous lecture about the tone of the internet, and then quickly devolves into just bashing react using some pretty dubious arguments. Hypocrisy at its finest.<p>Some of his claims about react are, at best, extremely misinformed and at worst, makes me truly want to doubt his ability to build software and abstractions -- which I don't really honestly believe, because many of his other technical discussions clearly show he knows what he is talking about, at least to some extent. Some of the claims:<p>- Impossible to understand what is going on in any given component: You can absolutely build components that make this hard and are tightly coupled to all sorts of state and what have you.. but you can also not. You can build tangled balls of mud anywhere, using anything.<p>- Claims that "large chunks of the react community have given up on unit testing".. by citing some random guy on twitter. Maybe I should create a xhitter account and make the opposite claim. Meanwhile, if you want some actual data, try looking at npmtrends for @testing-library/react.<p>- Blathers on about the virtual dom. Is it a perfect solution? No, no one has ever thought it was. But in practice, re-renders are rarely a real problem. It also doesn't "re-render everything every time", and when there are too many re-renders, there are ways to avoid them. If it's still not fast enough, by all means, just use something else. The part about it not "acskhually being functional" because it performs optimizations under the hood is also just straight up embarrassing. It's an abstraction. And it's never been <i>really</i> functional as much as has been inspired by functional programming. It's still a pretty useful approximation to think about react components.<p>The part about "react commodifying devs" is just patently absurd and boggles the mind. Management (with a capital M, like the Man) has always been trying to treat developers as replaceable units where one dev is the same as the next dev. React has absolutely no role in this whatsoever except for the fact that, in the context of the web, it became extremely popular extremely fast and thus appeared in more job postings than anything else, since nothing has grown within the realm of software development quite like web development has grown.<p>While he addresses some really interesting issues with implementing web components, he just keeps bashing react every chance he gets, and considering how much of this post is spent on that in particular makes me really feel like this post is a (not so thin) veneer on top of what was originally meant to be a rant against react, in the same vein as all the other rants he starts out his post by distancing himself from. | null | null | 41,790,499 | 41,790,499 | null | null | null | null |
41,793,703 | comment | int_19h | 2024-10-09T22:58:40 | null | The problem with repeating code in multiple places is that when you find a bug in said code, it won't actually be fixed in all the places where it needs to be fixed. For larger projects especially, it is usually a worthwhile tradeoff versus having to peel off some extra abstraction layers when reading the code.<p>The problems usually start when people take this as an opportunity to go nuts on generalizing the abstraction right away - that is, instead of refactoring the common piece of code into a simple function, it becomes a generic class hierarchy to cover all conceivable future cases (but, somehow, rarely the actual future use case, should one arise in practice).<p>Most of this is just cargo cult thinking. OOP is a valid tool on the belt, and it is genuinely good at modelling certain things - but one needs to understand <i>why</i> it is useful there to know when to reach for it and when to leave it alone. That is rarely taught well (if at all), though, and even if it is, it can be hard to grok without hands-on experience. | null | null | 41,788,114 | 41,758,371 | null | [

41,793,723 | comment | tptacek | 2024-10-09T23:02:06 | null | Yes: it's about the distinction between global GC and programmer-defined memory management. GC is about as straightforward a tradeoff as you can make: remove a very large class of programmer concerns in exchange for a different performance envelope. It is not reasonable to argue that Rust's memory management doesn't represent a point on a tradeoff space --- that people suggesting GC languages are better fits for some problems just don't grok Rust well enough. That's a common trope, and it's pretty obviously false, just as it would be false to say that kernels should just supply a GC runtime so we can write device drivers in Java. | null | null | 41,793,032 | 41,791,773 | null | [

41,793,725 | comment | pcwalton | 2024-10-09T23:02:12 | null | I actually used to agree that Rust generally wasn't good for high-level application code, but working with Bevy has made me change that opinion for certain domains. I simply haven't seen a system that makes automatically parallelizing all application logic (game logic, in this case) feasible, other than Bevy and other Rust-based systems. The trick is that the borrow check gives the scheduler enough information to automatically safely determine which systems can run in parallel, and that's very powerful. It's not that you <i>couldn't</i> do this in C# or whatever--it's that you <i>won't</i> without a system that helps express your intent and enforces that those declarations are up to date.<p>For applications that don't need high performance for the CPU code <i>and</i> aren't systems code, sure, Rust may not be a good choice. I'm not writing the server-side code for low traffic Web sites in Rust either. | null | null | 41,791,773 | 41,791,773 | null | [

In summary, it feels like an underpowered machine; then enable turbo boost, starts to heat up and feel the new kind of unresponsiveness, nice until there is to much heat (like 60 celsius); then, unlock the fan to keep the temp low, this recover a little bit of responsiveness, but that temp limit seems low; then, you get throttled in to play, with it you can play with the limit up to 98 celsius, so you can have a better experience overall and tweak your preference. | null | null | 41,790,587 | 41,788,557 | null | null | null | null |

If international investors dislike a policy, it may have domestic implications.<p>MMT depends on having a government effective enough to implement it.

41,793,779 | comment | Const-me | 2024-10-09T23:09:04 | null | > Non-trivial data structures are often just a bunch of arrays/maps with additional semantics<p>This might be fine for code which consumes data structures implemented by other people. The approach is not good when you actually need to implement data structures in your program.<p>In modern world this is especially bad for a low-level language (marketed as high performance, BTW) because the gap between memory latency and compute performance is now huge. You do need efficient data structures, which often implies developing custom ones for specific use cases. This is required to saturate CPU cores as opposed to stalling on RAM latency while chasing pointers, or on cache coherency protocol while incrementing/decrementing reference counters from multiple CPU cores.<p>Interestingly, neither C++ nor C# has that boundary, for different reasons: C++ is completely unsafe, and safe C# supports almost all data structures (except really weird ones like XOR linked lists) because GC. | null | null | 41,793,444 | 41,791,773 | null | [

For somoene making $120k that is 1/3 of their income. For someone making the national average (around $70k) that is 1/2 their total income. Just to mention, those areas (Seattle, San Fran, NYC) where you see $250k-300k salaries, those people are paying much higher than these figures. Probably $5-6k in rent or buying modest homes that just happen to cost $1.25M-1.5M<p>In the US you also can pay $1,000 (or more) /mo for health insurance. Most other parts of the world don't have this expense.<p>As of 2024, the average price of a new car is now $47,000 in the USA. Now not everyone is buying a new car but the used car market swells based on this figure.<p>Then you pay 15-30% in taxes on average for most people here.<p>So You add all that up and probably 2/3-3/4 of your money is gone.<p>I agree with you that things like clothing, consumer goods, software, meat, and oil are largely comparable globally now, but these goods only account for probably 10-20% of a person's monthly expenses.<p>Not to mention retirement. Because all these costs are so high, it means I need to put a larger percent of my paycheck to retirement so I can survive a few years of not working before I die. When basics like healthcare and housing are as high as I outlined, it means more money needs to go to retirement, which is money that can't be spent on these basic goods that you mention.<p>So yes, these goods you call out are in fact comparable around the world. But they only account for a relatively small portion of someone's expenses. The outstanding expenses are the most variable (housing, transportation, insurance, taxes). | null | null | 41,793,640 | 41,792,055 | null | [

Unlike government-enforced monopolies that'll stay no matter what they don't even have to do R&D. | null | null | 41,789,884 | 41,784,287 | null | null | null | null |
