Yeah and that's a total shitshow too. You want to run that in k8s?

* First off it won't work with a musl image
* You need to request a new token every 2 hours
* It doesn't spawn pods per build like gitlab, it's literally a dumb runner, the jobs will execute *IN* the runner container, so no isolation, and you need all the tools under the sun installed in the container (our runner image clocked in at 2gb for a java/node stack)
* Get prepared for a lot of .net errors on your linux boxes (yes, not exactly a showstopper but.. urgh).

I hated my time with GitHub actions and will not miss it.
Sure, being a parent is a massive moral responsibility. But the facts are that many kids have shitty parents through no fault of their own. I see kids who's parents let them go on Youtube/Tiktok for hours with no supervision. The fact is that if we don't do something as a society for these kids now, we'll be paying their therapy bills through our insurance in a couple of decades. So probably more efficient to do something now.
I grew up trained at school to always put on a helmet else I'd end up a vegetable after a bike accident. Not one mention of how American roads are designed for car supremacy at the expense of human safety. A helmet won't do you much good if a texting SUV driver hits you.

> Not sure which bookstore accepts bitcoins, but you might want to invest in a dictionary. :o) Or amazon coins, dogecoins, aurora coin, blackcoin, coinye's, dark coins, etc etc.

I won't fight over a stupid dictionary definition, but in case you want to know: The one I used I took it from one. Now what? Do you have any algorithm so that we can achieve consensus on this, or I'll have to accept what you say as a doctrine? The fact that you insist so much on a definition makes it clear that your argument is pretty weak, you have no clue how to attack Bitcoin anymore. You just have an irrational hate against it and want it to go away.

And I don't consider any of those coins "investments". They are redundant, they don't do any significant thing that Bitcoin doesn't, and Bitcoin has a much larger network effect, which is one of the most important things for a protocol and a currency.

> That's 50% plus one

Since you keep saying that, let me explain that simple majority isn't 50% plus one, it's >50%. For example, if we have 9 participants, the majority would be 5, not 5.5.

> Why do you think there are so many different crypto currencies. They all are greedy and want to harvest as much in the early stages of their mining, maximum returns on investments.

Yes, people are greedy. Some try to innovate, some just copy/paste the code, like your beloved dogecoin. But what's your point anyway?

> And if i don't seem to understand, in your eyes, what proof of work is, then please elaborate.

It's an algorithm for achieving distributed consensus, and the cost is those hashes. If you think distributed consensus is worthless, that's a separate issue and you should discuss it as such.

> Only thing they managed so far in my opinion is to create a somewhat, (its not,) anonymous payment system that allows the selling and buying of things that are generally illegal.

Cash is much better for illegal activities. Do you know who said this? The FBI. But your hate is too strong to accept this.

> So to get back to evolution theory, there certainly isn't a consensus on this around the world.

I'm talking about the scientific community, obviously. What do I care what preachers or soldiers say about a scientific issue?

> Have a good and happy mining weekend :)

What makes you think I mine? I don't mine Bitcoin, just like I don't mine gold.
my target audience is teenage Asian girls who like anime

When I first learned a real card trick back in 2002, the video had a "force" in it. There are quite a few different forces, I only learned one (involving fanning out the cards in such a way that the participant selects it).

Regardless of how you achieve the force, once you've got someone to select a card which you knew of ahead of time, shit just gets crazy. This is basically all of David Blane's up close street magic he does on video.

Like when he goes and asks someone to pick a card then throws the deck at the window and the card they chose is stuck on the outside of the window. No-one would notice the card stuck on the outside of the window before he threw the deck at it.

Another one was where he went to some NBA team's training and had them pick a card, then he got a basketball from a pile of basketballs and cut it open, and the card the guy picked was inside.

If you don't know that you were forced to choose the given card, it's the closest you can get to feeling as though magic genuinely happened.
Ugh... I'm not sure I'm qualified. ごめね！

I'm struck by two things: her completely un-ironic dismissal of people with different views and backgrounds, and the fact that this blog post is going to show up everywhere.

I don't suppose you can be more specific in terms of "optimized the site for adwords?"

Like, you mean SEO for contracting terms and such?
MPEG-LA has also refused (IIRC) to license the H.264 patents to the Mozilla Foundation in a manner that would actually be compatible with an open source project. Eg., MF would not be allowed to distribute the source code of the H.264 codec/plugin for Firefox, and users who download the Firefox source code and compile Firefox would forced to license their own copy of the H.264 plugin, or else would not be able to use it with their build of Firefox. This then means that downstream projects like Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, etc would not be able to maintain their own modified builds of Firefox unless they too licensed the H.264 patents.

There are other restrictions that I am surely missing, but the point is that MF licensing H.264 is not a feasible solution for such a shining example of free and open source software projects.
As a member of the H.264 patent pool[1], Microsoft makes money when people use H.264. If WebM becomes popular, Microsoft directly makes less money.

You work at Chumby! I'm trying to get into some hardware hacking and came across your site just recently. I'd love to talk about it and ask some questions. Can I email you? Or please drop me a note (my email's in profile). Thanks!
Their comic font alternatives are pretty bad, though. Blambot has a few better ones.

And of course there's "Comic Jens"[1], which is in the same vein, but not as obnoxious for some kind of reason. (And free, available as a web font etc.)

But x86, so missing the point entirely.
I was interested in how it was possible so did a quick Excel calculation of monthly payment.

For a 100 000 USD home without a down payment, and a 10 year loan you'd pay 1738 USD per month for a total of 208 500 USD. I've used 17% yearly interest rate.

=PMT(0,17/12;10*12;100000)

Today if you used 3% interest rate, your monthly payment would be 965 USD for a total of 116 000 USD.

Buying homes on loans was insanely expensive in 70s-80s but probably the growth of prices of homes made up for it.
This effect has also resulted in the people of Denmark becoming the most indebted households on the planet [1], which is increasingly a common theme among such low rate borrowing nations. Norway and the Netherlands are two of the other most indebted household nations. So the real cost is far beyond the low interest monthly payments, it ends up becoming a society-level risk of economic debt suffocation as people load themselves with ever greater amounts of housing obligation, and it sets the stage for a hyper regressive society where housing is far too expensive and you have to bury yourself in debt to buy in. 0% mortgages are cheered, while the staggering monthly payments caused by the asset-inflationary nature of those 0% rates is ignored (resulting in eg Denmark becoming buried in household debt their incomes barely support).

It actually is! The reserve requirements are 0%, which makes money effectively infinite
Yeah, I just found that statement so weird that I had to reply.

If I had to guess first and second are deliberate suicide and deliberate homicide. But I suspect there's a huge fall from those numbers to what is the third and presumably last rank.
America does not pay for China and Russia's bombs, at the very least; but something tells me you already knew that.
One thing to keep in mind Iranian leaders are mostly conservative Shiites. As such you are never going to get them to stop supporting Shiite communities in the middle east. Even if they disappeared tomorrow whoever replaces them is also not going to stop. And as Shiites they want nothing to do with Wahhabism/Salafism.
This is so awesome.

I hope that filmmakers and storytellers learn about how ordinary warrior archers should be actually be depicted in historical and fantasy films.
So... a program where near to 100% of input kids are neglected or abused that ends up with a significantly lower proportion of those kids neglected or abused is a "very weak" argument that anything has become "any better"?

If you had a drug that could save 50% of terminally ill patients, would you say "we have a very weak case that this drug saves lives"?

In order for your statement to make sense, the failure rate of foster care would have to approach 100%. Again, talk to an actual social worker about how they see foster care and whether or not they choose to use it. It's an opinion that will most likely come with caveats, but foster care is also a service they use frequently.

Actual experience I had recently that could work here:

1. I'm simultaneously filling out performance feedback while supporting infra and a team who is developing said tool.

2. I go to merge code from said team to fix a UI/UX issue of decent urgency. Looks good, builder succeeds, deploy to staging quickly to confirm before going straight to prod. Deployment fails. Odd. Check, odd errors. Turns out JFrog is experiencing an outage and that's a dependency on the builder, keep that status page open, go back to actually filling out performance feedback.

3. Get some unusual flakiness on the performance tool, don't think much of it.

4. See update from JFrog, they are down due to a GCP outage. I go to GCP to see what services are down, and Cloud SQL (the database the performance tool is on) is experiencing issues.

In summary, GCP goes down while dealing with a bug in a performance feedback tool that I am both in the middle of using and also assisting with in a non-coding capacity. There's some non-coding for ya :)
I suppose the paradigm for aging engineers like me would be "crumbling dock" rather than "T shaped": Quite a bit of breadth, with depth in various places, except that when you rely too much on it, you may find out that some of it has rotted away in the mean time.

I've referred to this topic in the past as "take credit / assign blame". It's unfortunately not just a management characteristic and there's not much you can do if you are under it.

In many ways the corporate world would be better if folks realized the goal of everyone should be to help other people regardless of org chart position, and that was really the only goal.

In the world of corporate politics, the best strategy is still from Wargames -- when offered the game of global thermonuclear war, don't play.

The phrase "servant leadership" is perhaps apt. A manager's job is to help the people working for them, and that's the best thing they can do to serve the people they are working for.

If there's not much can be done to fix a situation like the above, at least remember it, many folks who become managers can become better by not repeating those same mistakes. Try to build the department you wanted to work for.

"Its just as much work & just as traumatic to build a company that no one cares about as it is to build an important one."

Damn, maybe we should get rid of "electricity neutrality" too. Would be great if we just charged extra to all these bitcoin miners and marijuana grow farms so I wouldn't have to subsidize their electricity use.
I like that this balances out the usual puritanical "must save at all costs" attitude. I feel my family was way in that direction due to circumstances (own a place to live with zero property tax, but very little pension/income). But now even though I do well for myself, I end up doing illogical things like never using an unopened set of oil paints. I feel that teaching to spend money/resources is also important (I could have used it at the very least!).
I bought a couple of those and got them framed as a gift. The owner of the frame shop was concerned about me leaving them with him, until I pointed out that I was going to pay him more for the frame than they were worth.
That wouldn't really help; the network activity signature of a speed test is noticably different from browsing or video streaming, and even if it wasn't, the connection for streaming lasts a lot longer than the test. You could defeat it with a timer.

Well, it was more interesting than I expected.
"I compare what I have now to what I can get tomorrow."

This is an interesting point. Everyone has their preference point. Some people (like startup founders) can live on ramen income of < $20k/year if there's hope that they'll one day strike it rich. Other more conservative people prefer their steady salary of $80-100k at Corporation XYZ since it offers them a sense of stability. In addition to the class risk/reward paradigm illustrated here, I think this also illustrates how some people place higher value on change (read positive growth) and in turn, discount the value of stability.
"FeedBurner" hasn't been searchable on Twitter for months. It's not just a temporary glitch or outage. I also don't think it's a conspiracy per se. The question is why Twitter search mysteriously & continuously fails for this very common one-word term.

Exactly. On the one side you’re competing with the human drive and visceral need to procreate, and on the other side you have greed and laziness that want wealth without work via stock market growth, demand for housing increasing, and inflation reducing debt.
This is going to sound egotistical, but it's not intended that way, just the experience of your average prole.

The times that I have been the most successful, most motivated, most driven, most productive, and most useful, in study, career, relationships, and life, have tracked exactly with periods in which I've gotten out what I've put in.

When I started my career and a company took a chance on me - we absolutely killed it, I was paid well for the time, everyone was happy.

When I moved on and was given the respect and decision making ability that I wanted - same thing. Absolutely smashed it out of the park, money flowing from every plug socket.

Whenever I've been in a working environment that has cost cutting, or bureaucratic bollocks, or management that decide what's best for the employees rather than asking them - my productivity has been horrendous, the company has lost money.

Every single time I've worked without return - burnout. Every time, without fail.

This extends outside of work. The last year has been a period in which I've gone from wanting to take part in society, work on big problems like climate change, sacrifice for the greater good, donate my time and money, to just thinking - you know what?

No-one outside of your immediate circle cares. They never did, and never will. They will throw you under the bus immediately and comprehensively as soon as there's even the slightest microscopic threat to their wellbeing.

And they'll cast the blame on you. They'll say it's your failing. They'll say - never mind our responsibilities to you - you need to do your bit regardless.

Well, you know what? Fuck you guys, I'm getting mine now.
The main thing is that if you knew a program supported it, you could have your shell autocomplete arguments. I know there are tools for doing this from man pages, but they're basically using heuristics, and don't always work.

Not to mention the endless commercials...

How do the viewers of CNN, Fox, MSNBC not recognize that the guests cannot make substantial points about policies when their discussion is interrupted every 5 Minutes for commercial breaks?

Also, the USA has PBS, which is for a large part financed through a public fund (taxes). I don't know whats wrong with it but I assume by now most of the tv-watching audience is "trained" to watch opinion pieces on Fox&CNN instead of actual news.

I run a no-code agency, and my conclusions match yours: no-code tools are great for getting up and running, and for involving less technical people in process development. But sooner or later you'll need to do something that is outside the boundaries of the no-code platform's feature set, at which point extending it becomes a huge mess, because you then are forced to write code and hook it up to the no-code process in very strange and awkward ways.

Like you say, lack of source control is the biggest pain point.
Yep, both sides have a BATNA
Oh but we do. See, for instance, the forms of phrase "with all due respect", "bless your heart", and "oh you sweet summer child". Full of respect, kindness, and compassion.

Sometimes, when people make mistakes, people from 2019 remind them that they're like the great thinker Einstein, a sign that even though they believe the person erred, everyone believes that they are still capable of acting with great intelligence.

Truly, looking back two thousand years to the language of 2019 CE (near the invention of the Internet), one of us 5th-millennials must only conclude that true compassion began with that great sharing that was possible when all of Man could speak to all of Man over a single network.
It's a hotel room, not a permanent residence. The responsibility for providing affordable housing doesn't rest on the owner of a small guesthouse. Also this is Japan, not a city like San Francisco with a homeless epidemic and tents on the sidewalks.

Uh...what? Have you looked at the videos on their Youtube channel? You're really stretching to find a reason to be outraged here.
yeah it'd need approval by heads of committees maybe and some sort of consensus algorithm. Then of course the bill would need implemented by the specific departments that do those things.
Let me also add by moving things online where there isn't 'body language' people can actually read between the lines on issues, they can have deeper thoughts on things. Plus it's all public for the world to see the process unfold (except in cases where it's private for security reasons). More transparency would be a good thing.
So Google really has hit the nadir of the wall that Microsoft hit when Gates testified before the Justice department. It's a tough day for all of us Google fan boys but it's time to look in the mirror and carefully consider the current reality.

Blah. A lot of blame, some blame, or no blame doesn't really matter. The postmortem outcome will likely be the same anyway: here's a bunch of safeguards that need to be sorted out to prevent the thing from happening again. Whether it is done in breadth (looking for many hazards/safeguards) or depth (focusing on a few), there'll be a to-do list that needs to be actioned, and then -hopefully- actioned. And that's really all you need out of the process.
I don't think that's funny or a valid comparison.

Dogs aren't even the same species. It's not immoral to be afraid of them and having PTSD because of negative interactions with a particular predatory canine species is very normal.

Hopefully service robots won't be very far into the future. I don't want to discriminate against blind people. But I really don't think there is a problem with not being okay around a particular set of non-human species (alligators, hornets, lions, coyotes, dogs, bears, mosquitoes, ...)
