As an aside, note that this isn't the recommended way to make Int an instance of Monoid, since there is another, equally valid definition using '1' and '*'. The recommended way is to make a newtype. In fact, the Sum and Product newtypes are already defined in Data.Monoid for this reason.
No it didn't, it was just one word! It gave no value to the discussion at all!
Do they support that dynamically, though? I know a lot of high-end keyboards are able to detect how much force is applied to the key and adjust the sound (usually volume) accordingly (i.e. "velocity sensitive"), but these are usually like pianos, where the force is only checked during key press, not throughout the sustain; the CS-80 is instead fully pressure-sensitive (volume will adjust as you ease off pressure or reapply it without having to restrike keys), which is what the article's referring to, and which I've yet to encounter in the wild (though if you do know of a good example of such a keyboard - particularly one that can apply "aftertouch" per-voice like what the CS-80 does - I'd be interested; I've been looking for a good keyboard to add to my shopping list).
That's a good one, I've read it in the past. However, this cbs-sports one seems to be longer and more accurate, (more first person accounts), the drunkard piece seems to gloss over and exaggerate a few things.
If a company is progressive enough to participate in bug bounty programs they need to be damn certain that they are doing everything possible to interact with their community in a clear and friendly manner. The Slack security team clearly dropped the ball here is regards to properly communicating with the researcher and responding to them in a reasonable amount of time. This type of behavior is unacceptable and goes against the spirit of crowd sourced security research.

To meet client's expectations, we do a full phone consultation explaining the scope of the service. ( and soon in an FAQ )

For most customers, we are discovering that the basic plan/feature set is enough to get them started ( remember ITS NOT REPLACING their Flash site.. just AUGMENTING IT )

However, the few who cant live without their custom apps and animations, we do offer the ability to customize their site down to the pixel.

thank for your feedback,

What's the story with Skype planning to charge for video calls?
Yep, I think so as well - TCL could be nice replacement for current shell syntax, but choice and state of TCL shells is quite sad. :(
Thank you everyone, I think I have a rough draft of my plan now.

1. Sell my book via either payloadz or ejunkie. I want to investigate the reputation of each service, but I like the free account to start on payloadz.

2. If sales can cover my costs so far, and can pay for the cost of moving to Amazon, sell on Amazon.

3. If sales on Amazon cover my costs, add paperback print on demand.

How does that look for a business plan?
When the balloon popped I physically clutched the desk for support, quite involuntarily.

I think it must be the rapid flipping of the ground/sky reference points in these weather balloon spaceflight videos that gives me such powerful vertigo.
When I first saw Shopify I thought "That's never going to be successful". I immediately ruled it out and how wrong I've been proved! What they did, as I've watched them grow, is to launch early and then progressively make their application better and better. That is something I've read and read countless times and watching it in action has been inspiring and sobering (in that I'd not done that with my own products). I'm really pleased for them and wish them a lot of success. It has also inspired me for our new products and we soft-launched one within a month from a standing start.

I think this soul crush only occurs if you take the stance that it's an issue. I.e., if you suddenly want to find fulfillment and meaning in work, sure, you'll feed bad.

I submit that you can counter this by using that free time to do things that interest yourself and help you progress in the areas you want to grow in.

I have a lot of free time as a designer maintaining an enterprise product, so I flex my downtime into acting as my team's de facto product manager. When I step back from this interest of mine, I can otherwise use the time to teach myself VR (not related at all to my company).

My biggest piece of advice to people is to not look for fulfillment in work, but rather to find fulfillment in your interests. The burnout happens when your interests don't align with a highly demanding job. The soul crush happens when you suddenly try to tie all of your interests back to your job. That'll never be feasible 99.99% of the time. There's a reason why "a job is just a job" is an adage.

If you're fortunate and your job doesn't demand a lot, don't look to it to fill the void of free time if it's not interesting. Use that time for yourself to the extent that your company will allow/overlook it (I suspect this is why so many FAANGs are anti-remote work).

As most people can agree, no one will ever be lying on their deathbed thinking "damn, I wish I'd clocked more time filing those TPS reports".
The cheap ones are all petroleum-based, and if you get an unscented one you can really tell. Gross. Cheap scented ones still smell of it, even. Beeswax smells nice, even unscented, but is really expensive (if you're using them more than occasionally). Soy's OK and priced in between. A little harder to find than the petroleum ones, but that's not an issue if you're shopping online.

Anyway, as another poster noted, rarely is anything burning healthy to be around, even if it smells nice.
You can start blasting cool air in your face almost immediately, and if the car is overheated you can roll down the windows and stand outside for a moment to purge the hot air. And if you only meant the first couple minutes of driving, I don't think that was very clear.

Remote start is cheap compared to the price of a car anyway, if it makes a difference.

Also the sun isn't significantly hotter in summer than in winter; it's not going to make you overheat.
I haven't tried this, but I did bookmark it in case I want to some weekend:

https://github.com/seemoo-lab/openhaystack

"OpenHaystack is a framework for tracking personal Bluetooth devices via Apple's massive Find My network. Use it to create your own tracking tags that you can append to physical objects (keyrings, backpacks, ...) or integrate it into other Bluetooth-capable devices such as notebooks."
This is incorrect. Rivian also uses 2170s.
> We also found that the average person who shifted from car to bike for just one day a week cut their carbon footprint by 3.2kg of CO₂ – equivalent to the emissions from driving a car for 10km, eating a serving of lamb or chocolate, or sending 800 emails.

This is interesting, but might it be possible that at least some those cyclists ate 1 more serving of lamb (or other high-carbon meat) or chocolate than they normally would have because they biked? Or did they eat 1 more serving of mostly plant-based food?

Did they do an analysis of the amount of food consumed by the cyclist on the day they biked vs. the days they did not bike?
There was some coverage of TeamCity in relevant circles, e.g. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/01/06/us/politics/russia-cyber-...

That article attributes the claim to "officials and executives briefed on the inquiry".
I've seen a few people answer this question in the affirmative in previous threads, but I've never seen Windows containers in the wild yet. I work for a consultancy for enterprises, so if it was commonplace I would have expected to see them at least once. Obviously not doubting anyone else; just saying I think it must be pretty rare.
I hope that isn’t true. For the sake of starving children, political dissidents, victims of war, the environment, people struck by disease, and many more, I really hope that isn’t true.
I don’t think your first point is particularly relevant to the topic. If you were to continue growing a customer base forever, you’d presume that it would increasingly become more diverse forever. But the point you’re making seems to be that having more customers is good, not that having a more diverse set of customers is good.

I think your second point is completely valid. Having a greater diversity of skills, perspectives, experience, ideas... on a team seems to be obviously beneficial. But that’s not at all relevant to the types of diversity HR programs aim to implement. Those programs are generally concerned with factors like ethnicity, gender, and sexuality... which are not at all related to the factors you mentioned.
I really wanted to try Nomad and switch from Kubernetes but I eventually went back to using Kubernetes.

To run a Nomad cluster that is feature comparable to a Kubernetes cluster you also need to maintain Consul and Vault. With that it's no longer so simple to setup/maintain. A minimal Kubernetes distribution (k3s) is significantly simpler - a single command and you're up and running locally or on EC2.

The other problem with Nomad are unknown unknowns. The community has established Kubernetes as somewhat of a standard. This means you can find many pre-built applications (Helm charts) and solutions to common problems. With Nomad, I need to build everything from scratch. That's fine for extremely simple things like single containers deployments, but anything with more complex requirements, e.g. something similar to a small Kafka cluster, takes significant effort.

I found k3s + spot instances to be a great solution. It works beautifully and is fault-tolerant across spot restarts.
This seems to be an update of an earlier episode (2015) by the same author. A detailed debunking, alas in German, is available here: https://klima-luegendetektor.de/tag/valentina-zharkova/
I'm burnt out.

I've been on sick leave for over half a year now. Luckily I am in a country where I am protected, but I'm receiving less salary as the law indicates. I'm trying to focus on the good things in life. In my downtime from work I've tried to start a few personal projects, but I just can't seem to stick with it and I end up just playing video games all day. I just wanna crawl into the fetal position and die sometimes. I've often contemplated suicide but I know it's not the way out and it'll hurt the people who love me more than it will help me. I haven't told anyone the last part yet, including my therapist. I know I'll never make that move, but it has been on my mind.

I'm working 2 half days a week now, and it's hard. Therapy helps, even if it's just someone I can talk to without judgement, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to stop soon because it's costing me too much. Unfortunately the waiting list for therapy covered by insurance is extremely long.

Covid was part of the problem. Because of it, we just got more work and longer hours and I was given some high stress projects and clients that were way beyond my capacity. Couple that with WFH and a bunch of other personal things that happened, I got a burn out. Without going into details, I feel my employer failed to protect me and our relationship has soured. I want to quit and find a new job, but because of my situation I can't just start a new job and work 40 hours again. OTOH continuing where I work now is just causing me more and more stress and anxiety I'm also underpaid for my level, and on top of that I'm only earning 70% because of my sick leave. Rock and a hard place and all that.

I'm lucky to have my partner, she tries to be understanding but she's also had a tough year.

Anyway, that's why I'm not coding.
Do any of these support an offline mode?

A lot of alt-L1s claim to scale however they usually sacrifice decentralization which completely degenerates the network to an inefficient database.

Why is everyone getting this as a PaaS?

It was immediately obvious to me it was a wrapper over AWS which abstracts the infra to a little higher level, simplifying the initial setup and maintenance.
This is what I thought.

Hypothetically I guess it could have been the case that... I dunno, an allergic reaction to alcohol could produce a different type of experience for the person who'd ingested it, which could have been subtly more enjoyable, which could have resulted in a tendency toward alcoholism. That would have been interesting, as tinkering with the immune system could have been a path toward preventing that skew.

I think AA really works for some people. Not sure why they decided to stick with this confusing lingo, though.
People crave engagement as much as they crave unhealthy food. Having a person stand behind you at all times with an infinite amount of the exact kind of burger you like isn't gonna help make you get thinner lol. And that's like the whole point of personalization algorithms.
In retrospective I should have as it manifested itself later in some shady moves (almost mafia-style); but I was traveling around the world, having time of my life, and could work on my own side-business, so I didn't mind. Since then I did a top 10 ML degree and MBA, moved to a completely different orbit and it gave me a "good" experience observing red flags and correlating them with behavior that might come handy when dealing with business partners.
How you know it’s no bullshit? Last time I heard everybody claim their own shit as no bullshit :)
Sometimes I don't get notified when people message me on OkCupid and Tinder. That means conversations that may lead to me actually getting a date might end prematurely because of software failure. The question would be whether that's a bug or a feature.
Indeed obvious to some but necessary to hammer until everyone gets it — especially the business types who make decisions, as new devs themselves would quickly grow to learn this.

> What ever they are offering cost them money to develop, but they did not do that as a charity.

True! Yet... I keep thinking about `http` (the protocol), or Apache, IRC, and countless other software techs that were just 'given' to (and are maintained by) the world, courtesy of their makers, and/or bodies like IETF work groups, etc.

Case in point: "social" is basic at an elementary level (it's just CRUD, over-the-network), but at scale becomes insanely costly. The limitation/exclusivity factor thus doesn't seem to be software magic but rather infrastructure, piles of money, before sustainability or profitability come into play. This is what the monopolies stem from, only compounded by some Meltcafe/"network" effect (friction to switch, passive positive peer pressure inwards, passive negative outwards).

So in thinking of an alternative future path for social tools (SDK) and meta-tools (platforms, interop, work groups, etc), I think it's worth considering the infrastructure problem first. My money is on distributed and (partially but 'enough') decentralized systems (think bittorrent, tor, even DNS fundamentally), but regardless it belongs to the wider category of mutualization of resources (cloud vs on-prems debate, E2E crypt, etc). The solution must be preferable in terms of cost otherwise it's just not gonna happen.
There is a beta product to do just that in NYC: https://getchorus.co/

It will be interesting to watch people rediscover the value of freedom of speech. We aren't at the turnaround point yet though.
It seems...normal. Same way you can have a store on the public street and ban certain people from visiting it, then enforce that in court if they do.
Of course healthcare is special, it's not a normal market because of extreme demand inelasticity. Food is special too, but it manages to function as a market because we have a food surplus, a plethora of replacement goods within the food category and it's much less specialized to produce.

This doesn't mean that people don't deserve to earn a living. The doctor in the article managed to find a way to make the man's procedure happen without taking a loss on it.

But it's an inaccurate simplification to consider healthcare a market like any other -- inaccurate simplifications hurt any system and that's why our current 'market' system has more bureaucratic red tape, higher prices and worse outcomes than actual socialist systems in the rest of the western economies.
But it does mean his facts are more likely to be wrong. Or lacking the full story and the other facts that disprove his point and are conveniently left out. Remember, the Cato Institute (Koch brothers) and News Corporation (Murdoch) are intentionally biased organizations that design studies and stories to make specific points that further their agenda. This anti-'ObamaCare' piece in the WSJ carries about as much weight as a pro-'ObamaCare' piece in a left-biased rag.
I'm glad I bit the bullet and got lasik last year. It beats the nonzero risk of eye infection every time I touch my eyes with contact lenses. These problems can cause vision loss and sometimes require eye removal: http://www.webmd.com/eye-health/news/20061010/lasik-surgery-...
It's as if there were a monopoly on health care and the monopoly is charging whatever they think they can get away with. I am shocked. Shocked I tell you!

Sarcasm aside, I didn't know about these "preferred provider" contracts. That's just some good-old, down-home, anti-competitive behavior, right there.

Instead, we have a DOJ more interested in chasing after and "making an example of" young men who violate a university network use policy. Damn, I bet Rockefeller wishes he were still alive.
Agreed. I tried having a conversation with Chatterbot, I asked it a question and it replied "Do you listen to the sounds", then I said what sounds and it replied "I am not a guy". Chatterbot basically spouts random responses its gotten, from a database.
I wish there was more documentation about this. What I've figured out:

- Built on Cassandra

- Takes metrics POSTed as JSON objects

- Can do aggregation and roll-up but it's not clear how to configure this

- Can be queried, but I couldn't see any info on what queries are possible

It would also be nice to know what advantages this has over other monitoring tools - why wouldn't you use OpenTSDB instead, for example?
My comment was just acquired by Yahoo! So yeah, sorry about that.

I bought a 15" 4k UPERFECT portable gaming monitor for this situation. It's about the size of my 15" MBP, only thicker. I was worried about it being sketchy (as far as I can tell, they only sell on Amazon), but aside from difficulties syncing sometimes if I turn on the monitor before the computer and it decides there isn't a signal, it works great.
> I scored extremely well on the SAT/ACT so I would have every incentive to keep the status quo.

I did too (well, the SAT; given that and that evrywhere I wanted to apply took the SAT, the ACT would have been superfluous), but...

> Being smart does help you on these tests but not as much as you would hope.

Its pretty much all being smart. Focussed study has some effect (and because small score differences at the high end make big competitive differences, can be worthwhile), bit don’t really do much.

Scores are quite tightly correlatee with IQ, which is why, e.g., MENSA accepts them in place of IQ tests.

> The things that meaningfully affect your score are studying for them and learning the specific material on the test.

Sure, those are the things in your control near the time of taking the test that affect your score, aside from “not getting wasted the morning of the test”. There’s not much you (or anyone else) can do after early childhood to significantly improve your probable IQ at the time you take the test, but that’s still the main outcome driver.
I expect we won’t see these kinds of debates in 50 years. But right now, we’re just recently getting past the stage where anyone who programmed a computer was a programmer.

You’d see the same thing if anyone who used a keyboard was called a “Writer.” You’d see hello world tutorials demonstrating that all you have to do is press these keys on your keyboard and they show up in your text editor! You can be a Typer! And then what we actually call lawyers would come in and say no, writing a good document requires a ton of work and prior knowledge. And others would say that doesn’t matter because I just need it to write work emails and that’s more typical of a Typing job. They’d argue because they’re all talking about the same job, kinda, and that lets them talk past each other. Vague terms make for discussions that go nowhere.

I hope in 50 years, being able to program hello world will be as universal as being able to type hello world, and the different parts of programming will have clear enough names that we can say the equivalent of: typing is easy, clear email communication takes some writing skill, and writing a good legal contract for your client is hard.
It's probably my PTSD but my biggest fear is getting raided by SWAT in a "wrong house" mixup or for some other stupid reason. In such an instance I would likely kill one or more of them. I have a family in my house that could be injured by them in the process. I've always wanted a camera system that had remote encrypted storage so I could prove the truth in court.

I just re-read this comment and I'm clearly nuts.
