41,794,801 | comment | cortesoft | 2024-10-10T02:04:25 | null | This is assuming that just upgrading the shared library will work for everything. Too often, some things are broken by the upgrade, and since you weren't explicitly trying to update the thing that broke, you might not notice until a later date, at which point you may struggle to remember what was updated that it relies on. | null | null | 41,794,741 | 41,792,803 | null | [

41,794,811 | comment | hkand | 2024-10-10T02:06:31 | null | To say you can't see any benefit at all is probably an overstatement.<p>These trillion dollar companies were often able to invest into big money-losing moonshot projects that benefited consumers massively - in Google's case, GMail and Google Maps - which were truly unimaginable at the time even though they're taken for granted today, so there's clearly some benefit in the form of innovation. Who else can afford to build things like that?<p>The questions to ask are, can startups and venture capital take on the role of innovating that these big corps have done? I'm doubtful, since there's been no startup in the past ten years that put out anything nearly as genuinely innovative and helpful as Google Maps was for me, mainly because the risk/profit ratio is so bad without the network effects that these big companies have.<p>Do the benefits outweigh the costs? Ten years ago, when the big companies were innovating so much to the benefit of consumers, I'd answer unequivocally yes. Now it's much less clear.<p>And finally, is there any way to rein in the negative effects of these big companies while bringing out the positive effects to the benefit of consumers? | null | null | 41,794,057 | 41,784,287 | null | [

41,794,825 | comment | pclmulqdq | 2024-10-10T02:10:09 | null | You can have correctly-functioning software when parts of it are operating in a weird way. The complaint I have heard about Rust crashes is that the default behavior is to crash in any situation that <i>could possibly</i> be weird.<p>By the way, the trade you're talking about is great for desktop software (especially for browsers), but server-side software at scale is a bit different.<p>The borrow checker and all the Rust safety stuff is also completely orthogonal to most forms of testing. You don't get to do any less because your language protects you against a specific class of memory-related errors. | null | null | 41,794,746 | 41,791,773 | null | null | null | null |

That's okay, everyone does that to some degree, but there almost always trade-offs and such to consider.<p>Your job as Steering Council or Core Dev or BFDL or whatever governance you have is to consider all use cases and make a balanced decision.

Petertodd only learned the documentary would run with this claim hours before it came out as a result of journalists who saw a screener asking him questions. I am not petertodd.<p>At some point surprising late I realized that the retep account on the forum was petertodd, so it sounded like a fine reason to me that this would be surprising. But it turns out that when you reason <i>backwards</i> from having information after the fact there were already a number of links. Okay so what?<p>Consider how your logic would work if Todd was maliciously trying to falsely convince people he was a reluctant satoshi-- by e.g. using ineffectual arguments that he wasn't? or failing to to provide "proof".<p>You would be totally taken by him. Good reasoning doesn't have that vulnerability.<p>It's not even a speculative attack, this is part of what Wright did to him that enabled him to defraud so many. The kind of reasoning you're using is so vulnerable that it's being accidentally exploited by someone who isn't even trying to do so.<p>> Regarding IP leak. Come on. Obviously it’s his IP.

41,794,852 | comment | mthoms | 2024-10-10T02:17:19 | null | Neil, thanks for your response. But (as you noted) there is still lots of confusion.<p>>Because the WordPress Foundation, not Automattic, owns the WordPress trademarks for non-commercial use, Automattic has no control or veto of what code is stamped with the WordPress label.<p>Respectfully, how the "code is stamped" wasn't the question, and nobody was worried about that. What people were worried about around the time of Matt's post (previously linked) was corporate control over the marks. That is the context under which Matt made the claim.<p>Given that context, would you describe the trademarks as being "fully independent from any company"?<p>If I may pick your brain some more; Where does this distinction between commercial and non-commercial use come from? The trademark assignment does not appear to make any such distinction: <i>"..an exclusive, fully-paid, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, sublicensable right and license to use and otherwise exploit the trademarks...".</i><p><a href="https://assignments.uspto.gov/assignments/assignment-tm-4233-0808.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://assignments.uspto.gov/assignments/assignment-tm-4233...</a><p>Which brings up something else I hope you can clarify: how can The Foundation grant wordpress.org a license if the licence granted to Automattic is exclusive? Wordpress.org as you know, is not a non-profit.<p>Thanks. | null | null | 41,794,010 | 41,781,008 | null | [

41,794,859 | comment | jiggawatts | 2024-10-10T02:18:30 | null | One of my toy theories-of-everything is that we live in a branch of something akin to a Mandelbrot set. A trivial rule is all that is needed to produce infinite complexity. Sure, <i>zoomed out</i> a fractal can look simple, and even zoomed in (a lot!) it still looks trivially repeating, but if you <i>zoom in enough</i> eventually the complexity becomes high enough to represent something like the universe and the life within it. You can even squint at it and just like how the Mandelbrot set appears to fork repeatedly, parallel universes (like in MWI) could be forking off by the dint of following one path or another through this fractal space. | null | null | 41,783,945 | 41,782,534 | null | [

41,794,865 | comment | hakunin | 2024-10-10T02:19:32 | null | Here’s my anecdote.<p>I built 3 production projects in elixir around 2015-2018, and it was a blast to learn and work with. Those were interesting projects that were a great fit for the stack. One was March Madness bracket game which required a huge throughput on day one, and another was a football game audience play calling each play from their phone as the team is playing live at the stadium. This one needed a lot of timing coordination and poor connection handling. I even put out an open source fast/customizable leaderboard on top of ETS.<p>However, I didn’t feel the need for this stack on most projects, and if I’m totally honest, I never got good at the novel way of building applications in it.<p>While it was very enjoyable, everything felt a little awkward. Even 3 years in I constantly felt that I’m not doing it right, and I’m fighting the language to do data transformations in a purely functional style. I never got used to writing Ecto queries, and always had to look up their syntax. Plus, there didn’t seem to be a good architecture story, just isolated praise of OTP. And Phoenix further fueled the confusion, making it hard to understand whether I’m supposed to reason about my app like a Rails app (just build controllers, models, and views) with no regard for processes, or I should orchestrate some creative supervision trees, that I can’t even tell how they would be arranged in a typical web app. Going back to Ruby on Rails was kind of back to super productive comfort zone after a bit, and I just continued staying there.<p>I’m still looking back at Elixir with nostalgia, wondering if I’m going to have a chance to go back to it and really make it an extension of my arms/brain like Ruby had become. And whether I can do all that amazing supervision-based architecting I keep theorizing in my mind. I loved Dave Thomas’s vision (and agreed with his controversial takes) and really wished I could get as good as Sasa Juric at really deeply reasoning in this framework. Maybe one day. | null | null | 41,792,304 | 41,792,304 | null | [

When the country is no longer a country, and the IO country code is removed from ISO 3166-1, the justification for the domain existing will be gone. The article is saying that per current IANA policies, that should trigger the domain to be retired over a period of several years.<p>Personally, I do find it highly unlikely the domain will go away. They'll do something to keep it around. As the article states toward the end, "The IANA may fudge its own rules and allow .io to continue to exist. Money talks, and there is a lot of it tied up in .io domains." | null | null | 41,794,858 | 41,778,139 | null | [
