Awesome to see this product getting more love! I'm looking forward to the Github status updates.

A few suggestions from my experience using the product for the last few months:

- Setting the machine type on a per-step basis instead of for the entire job. For example, I'd like to use a large box to compile my scala, but can use a smaller one to test each package.

- Showing the status of each step before everything ends.

- Showing the elapsed time for a job on the page for the job in addition to the start time.

- Failing a single step without stopping the build (for example, a single project in a ci build fails.)

- Speeding up the web view (it's very frustratingly laggy when you have a significant logs in your build.)

- Using the dataflow visualization for cloud builder.

- JUnit support
You're not wrong, but- those two are prototypical hacker/hustler startup fodder genres
> Laws which help tyrannies oppress and murder people are not necessarily the same laws that turn good governments into tyrannies.

Can you give any counterexamples? Also, bear in mind that the criterion in the article is not "does the law help tyrannies oppress and murder people?" but "does the law make it difficult or impossible to protect the innocent against the government?"
Thanks! That has really been bugging me for a long time.
I'd say that a similarly priced high end laptop that cannot adequately cool a four core i7 is a bigger deal, especially given that this is their second year to ship devices with the same issue.

>The service manual for the Dell XPS 15 9570 is now available and it reveals something that we wished would improve in this generation — that the XPS 15 9570 carries over the same 2-pipe heatsink assembly from the previous generation. Not just that, there is also no indication of improved thermal dissipation from the Voltage Regulator Modules (VRMs) implying that we could be in for some serious throttling issues.

The Dell XPS 15 while earning accolades for being a very capable multimedia laptop that can also game, has also earned the reputation for throttling heavily under load. Both the earlier XPS 15s suffered from both thermal and power-limit throttling. The only way to fix this was to repaste and undervolt the CPU and also apply thermal pads on the VRMs to drive away all the excess heat.

Unfortunately, it looks like Dell has chosen to retain the existing heatsink design for the XPS 15 9570. Compounding throttling fears is the availability of a Core i9-8950HK variant.

You would think that after two years with the same issue, the mainstream tech press would pick up on it if the issue is throttling and not just chasing clickbait stories.

I feel like this article is a real railroad of the mechanic that "designed" this version of the boat instead of the entire industry that is using military surplus vehicles that shouldn't be used for this purpose. They point out that he got information from other mechanics... in my experience, those guys are some of the best practical engineers out there.

This article is worded like somehow an ivy league education would have fixed that duck boats are a shitty deal. I think that's pointing the finger in the wrong direction.

I just tried intermittent fasting (16hr fast, 8hr feeding window). It was very challenging at first and I had to catch myself multiple times opening the cupboard at night by habit, but it did help me realize how much snacking I really do.

My fat % is way down and muscle mass up, so it's been very positive so far and much easier after week 2 when my body fully adapted to the new eating style.

> This is an asinine concept much in the same way that people being opposed to electric vehicles is an asinine concept.

If this is your definition of "asinine concept", I think you need to re-examine your criteria. Not everyone who disagrees with your pet beliefs is asinine.

> If the government didn't have a monopoly on law enforcement, what you'd end up with are rival gangs each enforcing the law in their own biased way, propogating the amount of injustice we're already dealing with, and decentralizing it, making it harder to fight.

This claim is historically false. I referred elsewhere in this thread to David Friedman's Machinery Of Freedom, which gives a number of historical counterexamples.

> When you have a centralized source of law enforcement, you have a "single point of failure" that you can apply pressure to if it becomes corrupt

But you also have a single point of failure that special interests can apply pressure to to make it corrupt. Which, historically, is far more likely to happen than what you describe, because the special interests are concentrated while the people as a whole are dispersed and can't easily coordinate.

> Decentralization is not a panacea.

Nobody has claimed that it is. The fact that decentralization is not a perfect solution to all of society's problems is irrelevant to the point that decentralization, all things considered, is better (because it has less damaging failure modes).
Incandescence is worth reading if you're an Egan fan. Its initial setting similarity to Diaspora and Schild's Ladder mislead me to believe that the story would progress similarly, but if you can reset your expectations, and can look forward to a lot of talk about relativity, then it's a good ride.

The reason why y2038 problem looked so simple to OpenBSD has little to do with "monolithic repository" and everything to do with "happy to break kernel ABI compatibility". You're saying as much yourself.

Monolithic repository might have been a tool that helped enforce it, but that's not what made it happen. It's the decision that ABI could be broken that did.

And that's also why it hasn't happened in Linux yet. Even if there was a monorepo containing all the open source and free software in the world (or at least, say, that you can find in common distros), the fact that there's a contract to never break the ABI makes it simply hard to do.

I spent... 6 months trying to write a remote control for the google chrome dongle (not using Google's API). It was pretty clear that the official SDK had access to an entirely different API, and because it was all encrypted, I would never, ever, see any of it.

The bits and pieces of an API I did piece together (from older protocols), were stunningly unreliable. I am sure they were left in only to frustrate people trying to do exactly what I was.

The fact this question is even being asked is horrifying.

It speaks volumes to the arrogance and greed running rampant through the highest echelons of our society.

Things have been going downhill dangerously fast in the tech explosion of the last 30 years. Our society's technical capabilities have fast outpaced the development of a societal wisdom that leads to healthy and ethical outcomes in terms of governing how and when tech should be utilized.

Should our off-balance society ever fall off the horse so much that even a half-hearted attempt is made to justify the theft of a man's right to his own mind in the name of intellectual property rights, I would wager things have deteriorated to the point where a metaphorical bullet to the head of whatever farce of a societal framework is in place at the time is warranted.
Anecdotally I’ve noticed some benefits from skipping breakfast and eating only within an eight hour window. My blood sugar and energy levels are more even throughout the day, I can skip a meal if necessary when traveling or something without feeling too hungry, and I’ve lost a few pounds I was having a hard time getting rid of any other way.

In the morning I just drink coffee black and then have a somewhat early lunch and dinner. Maybe it would be more effective to skip dinner instead but this seems to be working.

The problem is not buggy code - i.e. code that is meant to do one thing but actually does the other. The problem is buggy goals - e.g. goals that is meant to foster thoughtful discussion but actually create echo chamber increasingly intolerant to dissent and incapable of considering new ideas on merits instead of panicking on any deviation for the orthodoxy. Unless conscious and constant effort is taken to avoid it, it is very easy to get into such failure mode. Not because people are evil but because people are buggy and weak.

I've been doing this for about a year now and feel better than ever. The reason I started was a simple view that our bodies spent hundreds of thousands of years, millions if you want to go back to very closely related ancestor species, doing things in a very specific way. And then in a time period of some 2000-3000 years, we've turned everything upside down in terms of the foods we eat, how much we eat, when we eat, and so on. And if you look at society today, the results have been catastrophic.

I've never been much of a snacker and have always eaten reasonably well. I was not fat to begin with - but shed a good amount of weight, and also saw an increase in muscle mass. I've also experienced an increase in energy which I assumed was placebo, but going on a year now it hasn't changed. And all of this seemingly from no effort of my own. I don't make any particular effort in my eating besides eating within an 8 hour window each day. The only slightly difficult part was going to bed hungry, depending on your schedule. But somehow your body rapidly adjusts to that as well. When I first started I'd toss and turn on an empty stomach. After a month or two I was sleeping like a baby.

Highly recommended.
The paper says:

“When overweight individuals with >14 h eating duration ate for only 10–11 h daily...they reduced body weight, reported being energetic, and improved sleep.”

The 10 hour period was self selected. So could have been morning or evening I guess.

This doesn’t seem very surprising to me. Maybe there are other details that I missed.

That's highly counter-intuitive to me. Can you try to motivate why that's the case?

My intuition is that you could use any sequential (which I translated to online) technique could be used in a non-sequential context. By that reasoning, there's no way a sequential technique could do better, at best it could be the same.

I keep shooting myself in the foot _the same way_, all the time - and it's incredibly easy to do so:

- not knowing if "Foo" being returned is a struct or an interface, so you're not sure if you should "if foo != nil" (it could not be nil if it's a struct)

- channels freezing (specially unbuffered ones). I still can't figure out how to debug those well.

- (the most common of all) spawning goroutines on a for loop, and all of them closuring over the same value (instead of one per item on the loop)

it's a surprising amount of sharp edges, for such a tiny language...
Can anyone articulate how it does work and where I'm going wrong then? The conversations feeling pretty one sided here.

You said the first thing doesn't exist? Do you not have local changes or are these changes not shared with the test/build server? Having a set of patches, code changes, whatever sounds like a branch to me, are you being too literal with the word branch?

For the second part what doesn't exist? Do you not make changes that breaks other peoples code? Do you not get them to help fix it? Can you not share your work in progress changes with others? Can you goes collaborate on changes at all?
