41,798,900 | comment | kjs3 | 2024-10-10T13:59:18 | null | In the US, small local banks are everywhere. There's an entire ecosystem that matches capital to start a bank with experienced management teams that run the bank (not just anyone can be an executive at an OCC chartered bank). There are SaaS providers that do the heavy IT lifting. And, of course, specialist lawyers. They open a local bank, build it to a certain size, and (usually) one of the regional or super regional banks comes and picks them up. Lather, rinse, repeat. Not unlike what you see in SV with startups. | null | null | 41,798,569 | 41,798,027 | null | [

I could have definitely related to this in my 20s, but I cannot relate to this anymore. At this point in my life it sounds truly terrible to me for multiple reasons. At some point I learned that it takes much longer than a conversation to truly get to know someone. People I was unimpressed with at first have turned out to be a really great friends a few months later. This has happened enough that I usually just give people a pass now regardless. | null | null | 41,766,587 | 41,756,432 | null | null | null | null |

41,798,909 | comment | gklitz | 2024-10-10T13:59:56 | null | Thank you for being honest about making the exact mistake they are trying to help out with this.<p>I’ll restate what I posted elsewhere, I have never come across anyone who actually wanted to write a bare except, only people who thought naively that it worked like “except Exception” actually does.<p>I understand people are grabbing pitchforks because everyone has at o e time or another written code using a bare except and they are thinking that this will break it, but they 100% intended that to work like “except exception” python could just make that the default for the bare exemption and keep the syntax.<p>Depreciating the behavior is a good choice, and anyone who actually wants to capture exit events or keyboard interrupt can explicitly capture those.
If code breaks with this depreciation it’s because someone is doing something extremely out of the ordinary but isn’t being explicit about it. | null | null | 41,788,435 | 41,788,026 | null | null | null | null |

But in judo for example there are other factors in stance choice and only about half of left handers mainly use the "left handed" stance, and plenty of right handers prefer it also.<p>Overall probably just really hard to get good universal data on this.

41,798,929 | comment | jerf | 2024-10-10T14:01:43 | null | That eliminates one of the main reasons to use this approach. Function chaining as most people write is awful for performance because it involves creating a separate array for each step in the chain. Given that most programs are actually more memory-blocked than CPU blocked, this is a bad tradeoff. Composing Go iterators, and composing iterators in general, is preferable because it doesn't have to create all the intermediate arrays. A bad reverse wrecks that back up.<p>Still, you need the option, and while reverse is one of the more common iterators, it's still usually avoidable if you need to. But if at all possible I'd suggest a "reverse" type-specialized to slices, and as necessary and possible, type-specialized to whatever other types you are using to <i>actually</i> crawl a value "backwards" rather than collecting a full iterator into a slice.<p>(Then again, I'm not a fan of this approach in imperative languages in general, due to the generalized difficulty in refactoring code written in this style and the fact that observationally, people just don't refactor it once written and it affords a style rife with repetition. One of <i>the</i> most important considerations about code is how easily it can be refactored. In Haskell, this approach is excellent, precisely <i>because</i> it refactors very, very well in Haskell. In imperative languages, it tends not to, thus, serving as another example of why you can't just blindly bring over nice things from one language into another without verifying they haven't become sour in the process.) | null | null | 41,798,809 | 41,769,275 | null | [

Yet Rails seems to get away with far less than that and still have better performance.[2]<p>Rails concurrency model is per <i>process</i>. So you will have `n_workers` pools and the amount of connections will be `n_workers * 3` based on the code you shared. The production machine has 28 total threads [1], which means Rails is starting 35 workers, according to their auto tuning code [2]. Overall, Rails uses 35x more pools than the Phoenix application and has twice the number of connections (105). It is absurd to imply that Rails is actually running with far less.<p>Second of all, the database pool needs to be 512 or 1024 <i>if</i> your app server can push traffic quickly enough to the database. If you are increasing the Rails pool size and it is not getting faster, then Rails is your bottleneck. Based on the runs I did last week, it seems the pool is the bottleneck in Elixir's case. We will know for sure in a couple weeks once the PRs land.<p>> If these people can't get good results in tuning Elixir, who can?<p>You can look at the results from the latest community efforts in main: <a href="https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=test&runid=176ba510-3607-4faa-996e-74f0778b88d4&hw=ph&test=query" rel="nofollow">https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=test&runid=1...</a><p>If you want to compare with Rails in particular, we beat Rails in every benchmark except two:<p>1. Single query: which will be tackled by better sizing our pools<p>2. Plain text: where we are currently sending the wrong payload (but when we sent the proper payload, as in the last published round, we beat Rails too)<p>And it does not include any of my proposed changes yet.<p>My point is exactly that the feedback cycle is long, so it takes time, and I was not able to invest time before. But given how intent some folks are to misinterpret benchmarks (and assign malice to the whole community), it is probably better to continue looking into it.<p>[1]: <a href="https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/120474/intel-xeon-gold-5120-processor-19-25m-cache-2-20-ghz.html" rel="nofollow">https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/120474/...</a><p>[2]: <a href="https://github.com/TechEmpower/FrameworkBenchmarks/blob/master/frameworks/Ruby/rails/config/auto_tune.rb">https://github.com/TechEmpower/FrameworkBenchmarks/blob/mast...</a> | null | null | 41,798,402 | 41,792,304 | null | [

41,798,953 | comment | consteval | 2024-10-10T14:04:05 | null | Well first off people do take the subway. Lots and lots of people. But if subway doesn't go where you need it to and you're in a time crunch, you take a taxi or uber.<p>Second off, even if Uber is more expensive that's still not it's true cost. You, or anyone, would be happy to take an uber if it was 1.15x the cost of a taxi. Because that's worth it for you.<p>But this is the big idea here:
"Tech company moves in a provides a product that's 2x as convenient for 10x the cost"<p>There's a point where it makes no sense to get an Uber, and we're well past that point. Uber made it only because they could hide the true cost.<p>Uber IS a better experience. But would you pay, say, twice as much for a better experience? I would say for most people the answer is no. Not for a transportation service.<p>When you're making a product it doesn't matter how amazing it is if it's too expensive to produce. There's some exceptions for some product categories, but ultimately operating inefficiency will bite you. From an economic standpoint, Uber does not make sense and has never made sense. Point blank, it's a stupid idea. As time goes on and Uber prices go up and up to try to make up their billions of dollars of losses, you will see this first-hand. | null | null | 41,794,291 | 41,776,861 | null | null | null | null |

41,798,956 | comment | citricsquid | 2024-10-10T14:04:20 | null | As the person ultimately responsible for the Minecraft Wiki ending up in the hands of Fandom, it is great to see what Weird Gloop (and similar) are achieving. At the time of selling out, the Minecraft Wiki and Minecraft Forum cost tens of thousands of dollars per month to run and so it didn't feel too much like selling out, because we <i>needed</i> money to survive[1]. 15 years later, the internet is a different place, and with the availability of Cloudflare, running high-traffic websites is much more cost effective.<p>If I could do things over again, on today's internet, I like to believe Weird Gloop is the type of organisation we would have built rather than ending up inside Fandom's machine. I guess that's all to say: thank you Weird Gloop for achieving what we couldn't (and sorry to all who have suffered Fandom when reading about Minecraft over the years).<p>[1] That's a bit of a cop out, we did have options, the decision to sell was mostly driven by me being a dumb kid. In hindsight, we could have achieved independent sustainability, it was just far beyond what my tiny little mind could imagine. | null | null | 41,797,719 | 41,797,719 | null | [

A function call was a hard barrier that was going to spill all GPRs, inlining was almost unheard of. What the code did was what you saw, and if you had an aliased pointer it's because that's what you wanted.<p>And when it became an issue c. late 90's, it was actually "NO strict aliasing" that was the point of contention. Optimizers were suddenly able to do all sorts of magic, and compiler authors realized they were getting tripped up by the inability (c.f. the halting problem) to know for sure that this arbitrary pointer wasn't scribbling over the memory contents they were trying to optimize. You'd get better (often much better) code with -fno-strict-aliasing, which was tempting enough to turn it on and hope for better analysis tools to come along and save us from the resulting bugs.<p>We're still waiting, alas. | null | null | 41,798,890 | 41,757,701 | null | null | null | null |

Sounded exactly like a story used to bamboozle young'uns until I realized it's actually true.
