I think the argument is it’s possible something looks abstract only because while wanting to draw something somewhat realistically or representative one ends up drawing abstractly for lack of ability to do more representative art. In other words reoresentative ability is forcing you to draw in a certain way where if you could you would draw a different way.

I’ve seen kids frustrated because their “abstract art” didn’t look realistic enough and wanted an older kid or person to help them “draw better”.
As I remember she heard about winning the award during a journalism class. Quite a nice story, and she did outstanding work.
There is too much variance from reader to reader, narrator to narrator, and one type of material to another for surface-level studies to be helpful here.

People read and comprehend differently. For example, when reading it is very easy to skim, even when you don't intend to. In other words, reading too fast, such that you speed through parts you consider boring to get to parts you find more interesting. With an audio book, you cannot do this.

Also, distraction is not necessarily more of a problem in audio books than with printed material. Some people, myself included, can actually continue to read while their thoughts are in some other place. I often find myself reading one thing, while thinking of something else entirely, and having to go back and re-read what I just read. This is the mental equivalent of hitting the "30 second back" button on an audio book.

In general, I find myself absorbing audio books better than printed books, particularly when it comes to fiction. It forces me to take the book at an even pace, and thus I often come away with more detail and remember it better.

But the subject matter also makes a difference. I prefer audio books hands down for fiction, unless the narrator is Ben-Stein-boring or difficult to listen to. For non-fiction, audio books may or may not have the edge. For a non-technical subject such as history, audio books have the edge. For all math, unfamiliar science, or anything that requires a slower, more detailed examination of a subject, printed books win every time.
> when the module you're looking isn't in the static resolutions table

The fallback will kick in when the package that makes the request isn't in the static resolution table. Since those packages aren't part of the dependency tree we assume their dependencies have been installed independently, hence the fallback.

That said, I think the use case described by the parent post is neatly solved by the `link:` protocol, which basically 'aliases' a module to a specific name.

As a data point, my company is using yarn workspaces where one of the projects is an Electron app, and another has a Node server with native dependencies.

Our nohoist section currently looks like this in order to get things to behave:

"nohoist": [
"**/electron/**",
"**/electron",
"**/electron*/**",
"**/electron*",
"**/canvas-prebuilt/**",
"**/canvas-prebuilt"
]

These are likely going to require auto-ejection due to being native and having postinstall scripts.

Would it make sense to not bother with hoisting of ejected modules when using YPnP, given that YPnP solves the same problems as hoisting in a more global way? We'd be able to get rid of the nohoist section in that case.

The sales tax is not applicable on purchases that span multiple states. It doesn't matter how hard you argue that one state or the other should have the ability to tax a transaction, whenever there are multiple states in the equation, none of them are constitutionally able to do so. If there's an endpoint in one state, and an endpoint in another state, it crossed a border somewhere and earned the "interstate" adjective.

The state only has the power to tax intrastate commerce, where both buyer and seller are standing within its borders. If you are loud enough and persistent enough, you can even convince a seller to not withhold sales tax on a purchase where you are physically present, by making a solemnized claim that you intend to immediately export the goods you are buying out of the state. Businesses do this all the time. (But then they pay use tax for their own state, because it's cheaper and more certain than arguing their case all the way to SCotUS.)

The tax is an excise on the buyer. Sellers subject to the state's jurisdiction must collect it, by law, on behalf of the state, whenever they are able to do so. It is an undue burden on sellers to be forced to operate as tax-collection agents for all of the states, including those they have not directly chosen to do business in, by establishing some kind of persistent operation there. There are hundreds of individual jurisdictions able to levy sales taxes on the domiciled residents of their state making purchases within the borders of their jurisdiction. What a towering barrier to entry it would be if, in order to operate so much as a catalog mail-order lemonade stand, a business had to purchase software licenses or tax-handling services able to resolve taxes for all the states and territories, and all of their tax districts, and possibly also an alternate rate within that district.

Micah is an HBS alumnus. I'm not saying he's wrong, but he brings his own biases to the table, as we all do. I also went to business school, and while I wouldn't say it was worthless as a founder, the things that are valuable are not always what people believe are valuable.

There are three reasons to go to business school: knowledge, network and brand. People go for many reasons, such as feeling insecure, wanting insurance and taking a break from their job. These are not good reasons. Here is my evaluation of the good reasons:

- Knowledge (overall grade C-)
Yes, you will learn things if you study. Could you learn these on your own? Sure. Will you? Likely not. If you weren't an accounting/economics/finance major in undergrad you may find the academics particularly valuable. Some of the classroom experience is useful for things like negotiations, management and other "soft" skills. My experience was that the greatest intellectual advancement I found was through cross registering in the engineering and statistics departments. Go to a large research university, particularly if you went to a small liberal arts school for undergrad, and make the best use of a world class institution!

- Network (Depends mostly on the competition to get in, B+)
This is the biggest reason and often cited as the true reason people go. Academics are a joke and going for the brand seems gross, so people default to this answer, which is cronyism, but at least it's not as superficial as branding. In my experience, this was incredibly useful. I've landed three of my seven clients through business school classmates. The alumni network is good too, although not terribly strong unless you go to a smaller program, which lowers your odds that the alumni will be usefully placed for your purposes.

- Brand (depends entirely on prestige, A+)
This is vastly underrated, at least in polite conversation. Nobody like a braggart, and playing the "I went to Stanford GSB" card is an ugly move, so savvy MBAs resort to more subtle signaling. It's hard to measure the value here because it makes everything easier, from pitching and starting conversations, to being taken seriously and getting access to programs and resources.

Finally, a word on digital vertical native brands. Developing a valuable brand is low probability event (that's why people buy a brand by going to business school!). That is not to say it's difficult, or any more difficult than winning the lottery, but it is rare. Intentionally creating a brand can be hard, but I doubt there's much correlation between effort and success. Besides brand, these digitally native vertical brands have no sustainable competitive advantage, and I fully expect their profits to get competed away. The market, however, can stay irrational long enough for many people to get rich. Best of luck to anybody starting or investing in a digital brand!

Can you hold securely in one hand and pull down Control Center from the top right corner with your thumb? It's one of my most commonly used features and when I tried one in the store it was impossible for me. (EDIT - try this left handed, it's even worse)

Walk outside
Glance at my phone
Want to turn the brightness up because the sun's out
Set down whatever I'm carrying in my other hand
Turn up the screen brightness

is not how I want to use my phone. I guess you get used to not being able to do that, or you get one of those adhesive grip nubs on the back of it, but "Can not be used effectively one handed" is basically my threshold for whether a phone is large or not.

I guess the workaround for this is

Homescreen
Launch Settings app
Display & Brightness
Increase slider
Change back to the app you were using

Works, but that sounds like a huge nuisance.
I might be missing something here but my thinking is that Google Inc/Alphabet is bigger than Larry Page.

I switched from ColdFusion years ago as my primary language cause of the job market (as i'm sure many others have), not because it is a bad language OR because it was tag based. to be completely honest, ColdFusion itself is an outstanding product and STILL is so easy for a barrier of entry and setup.

the things (to me) that are kill it a) the price is ridiculous, b) they never officially supported a framework in the era of MVC (ColdBox, FW/1, CFWheels would all have made a good candidate) and c) they never listened to their developers about features to implement.

Idealism goes away once a company has reached a certain size and has to reach for big growth like Google. They all have to turn into big faceless corporations.

and also innovation can happen .
I could totally understand that in a vacuum, but Google also chose not to send Sundar Pichai, Google's current CEO, whose vocal chords work just fine. Which sends a much stronger message that Google just doesn't want to talk to Congress.

My personal impression of Page and Brin's near silence of late is that they have semi-retired by effectively promoting themselves out of Google during the creation of Alphabet. Still on top, still in charge, but having delegated pretty much everything down to a lower level.

Hello,

I'm curious how do you guys operate the flink cluster, do you have a single huge shared flink cluster where people can submit any kind of jobs for various applications/streams.
Or do you have multiple smaller flink clusters for specific use cases?

Which flink version are you guys on?

> This would only be a risk if the difference between the local optimum and the global optimum is large, but there is no evidence to suggest that is the case

Agreed, it's been elusive for the software engineering community to objectively assess and quantify productivity effects of software tool chains, in particular in comparable stacks.

Comparison of programming languages or stacks is not what I was (trying to) talk about though. I have no idea whether hack compares well to $RANDOM other toolchain. I am curious as to whether a continued incremental investment in PHP made sense, compared to choosing a whole stack and propping that up to meet your requirements. Even assuming your final PHP-based stack is identical to whatever else you'd have chosen, the paths do have differences in effort.

The local optimum in that context is that it's locally optimal to just add that one feature to your existing solution vs investing in a different solution that in the long term will cost you less to build and maintain.

I don't have an answer to that question though, as I'm not familiar with the effort required or comparisons made. I think it's a genuinely hard call to make. Even post hoc and with all the knowledge it'd be hard to judge, as you need to discount effort by the relative risk factors.
