It can be done, it was done, but it doesn't scale.

If you want layers of failsafe and redundancy (as we would do it today), it requires higher level abstractions, e.g. writing in at least C if not C++ or Rust, instead of hand-coded assembler like they did back then.

So yes simple got us there, but it's not useful to repeat the exercise like that again.

With a statement like that one wonders if Hezbollah leadership itself has been infiltrated.

It can be pretty awkward to work with, although I've not found anything comparable, free, and cross-platform.

Sometimes the FK links in cells break. Other times views don't get invalidated when pressing refresh until a reboot. There are different refresh buttons all over the place for different contexts. Lots of minor quibbles despite almost weekly updates. It does have a gamut of features though - and it's free and cross-platform though, so it's one of those love-hate relationships for me.

Haskell?

Similarly, found a bug in clang around 2010 that would only happen with max optimization. Actually did manage to track down the root cause; an array access would fail if the index > 255. It went something like this: on ARM (this was building for iPhone) the LDA (Load Accumulator) instruction can store the memory offset (array index) within the instruction itself if it would fit within 1 byte, otherwise the offset would have to get loaded from a memory location pointed to by a given register. One of the two cases was faulty.

Was just about to report this, but my Mac got upgraded to the next version of OS X, which magically solved the problem. What does the OS upgrade have to do with compiling? In the world of Macs, Xcode was also upgraded along with the OS, and in the newer version it was already fixed. Dangit!

Hi - I'm not a user but I am reacting to obvious love many developers have for your app.

Have you thought about open-sourcing it?

Or even keeping it closed source but crowd-sourcing help?

No need for profit sharing - your income is a nominal management fee if that. Just need a nice credits page to give thanks to the names of the people who contributed.

Might work?

Curiously, in #217 Satoshi used "gotten", which doesn't exist in British English - it's a word that is normally only used by Americans.

Broaden "Satoshi" to the creation story of Bitcoin, and there already are; Banking on Bitcoin is a good one.

Not scalable though, like JSON with nested objects.

Wasn't that struck down? https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/1/1/israels-supreme-cour...

Premeditation means planning it beforehand.

The books were purchased after the deed was done.

A crime of passion can be covered up without making it premeditated.

So images are serialized and able to be transmitted over a network.

When an image is used (or "run"), it becomes a container, which makes it behave (to the client) like ordinary files & directories.

Going out on a limb to say ironically it's easier for the developing world to implement this stuff because they're so much less entrenched to begin with. Have also seen this in South Africa for example.

Result is a massive ecosystem, so yes it proves the point (regulation aside).

hah! Nice. Although, $100 says we're gonna fsck it up.

Believable.

    Also don't get me started that I can't use an api to get my account details and statements in Canada.

Anyone know if there's any ongoing effort to this effect - i.e. to force banks to implement a common API for querying data held in their accounts?

A brief search reveals that Canada is of course missing from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_banking

Nor of reset, normalize etc.

Verbatim from my current code:

    if strings.Contains(dbname, "prod") {
        panic("Refusing to wipe production database!")
    }
    Truncate(db)

There were a lot of individual websites, entire subcultures that you'd never know about unless you met someone who brought you in.

Kinda like private Facebook Groups I guess, except not all controlled by one megacorp, in fact not controlled at all.

You also had to be quite technical to be able to host a site, so that defined the culture. Anarchy but tech nerd.

The addition of tags to HN would allow the dynamic creation of such sub-sites. Like StackOverflow tags & filtering.
