It was fixed.

Duplicate, which also got on the front page without a working link: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36881510

What's your secret for getting 1 upvote per minute even when the link doesn't work?

Link doesn’t work for me. “Too many redirects.” Both mobile Firefox and mobile Safari.

Same. Interesting that a broken link can get so many upvotes so quickly.

> No patient had ECG- changes, and none developed major adverse cardiac events within 30 days.

Which aligns with

> We found that across this large dataset, the entire COVID-19-vaccinated population of England during an important 12-month period of the pandemic when the COVID-19 vaccines first became available, the risk of myocarditis following COVID-19 vaccination was quite small compared to the risk of myocarditis after COVID-19 infection.

The lede is that 2 orders of magnitude more of injury exists than previously detected. 1 in 35 showed signs of heart damage.

Why use a white font? Just put a block at the bottom of your resume: "Keywords for automated scanners". Then just put a huge block of keywords.

Why be secretive about abusing a loophole with a company you might have a relationship with?

SQL does not need to be replaced, in the same way that COBOl never needed to be replaced. It can get the job done, but we have superior tools today. Better abstractions enable more productivity.

That there are N flavors of SQL is annoying, but there are foundational design choices in the language which we are stuck with today. PRQL is quite readable to those with SQL experience and feels like a plausible next language in the space without reinventing paradigms.

To go back to my original post, my main beef is with turning an imperative language into a declarative one. If you've seen enough of these types of languages degrade, you start to see a pattern.

PRQL seems the most realistic evolution out of SQL. Changing the programming paradigm will never convince the SQL true believers.
getmeinrn · 3 years ago
I don't really know what you're saying, can you say it another way? "Most realistic evolution"... why is that needed? If the problem is different database engines implementing the SQL spec differently, that's not something that can be papered over with another abstraction without a lot of wrinkles.

I've silently been a big fan of this approach for years but hadn't heard about it anywhere (most likely because I'm not familiar with Pulumi).

Could you provide a reference that elaborates on "Pulumi's pattern"?

getmeinrn · 3 years ago
This is the closest example I could find https://www.pulumi.com/docs/concepts/how-pulumi-works/

Pulumi serves as the strongest contender to Terraform when doing IaC (infrastructure as code). Terraform attempts to be a declarative markup language (HCL) but it has a lot of weird imperative quirks due to (understandably) trying to support common complex use cases. In the end they have a clunky custom language that tries to do what general programming languages have done well forever. Pulumi doesn't re-invent the wheel, and lets programming languages do what they do best. Pulumi only really cares that the programming language generates a declarative spec that can be used to compare with your infrastructure. It's the best of both worlds.
