A major redesign. TSMC will have different IP available, particularly IO and RAM cells. Also different packaging options: they may not support the same die and/or interposer sizes. The test methodology and tooling may also be very different to what they are used to working with. Switching fab is a huge deal, the time cost would be big. They can of course gobble up the financial costs no problem. However, it does assume TSMC would even have sufficient capacity for Intel.
Generally depends on the implementation and the default behavior.

But anyway, it's a good point.
Well, the C preprocessor is a pretty far cry from the kind of power of Lisp macros. If you want something as powerful as Lisp macros (ish), there isn't much else you can use in C++ land.

I agree .NET MVC is as close as you get to something like Rails with regards to productivity in a statically typed, enterprisy language.

But using .NET/C# at Github would still have ended up with a significantly larger codebase -- which means more code to maintain, and therefore also in all likelyhood more bugs.

Bloomberg's model is not whatsoever accurate on a week-to-week basis. They overestimated production by quite a bit earlier this month [1], revised the model downward by about 6000 total units, and now have to drastically lower their estimated production rates in order to not still overestimate totals.

Anything not related to the circus that is currently running our country is pretty much back-page.

On the flip side celebrating a culture where (allegedly) people are expected to toss out their personal lives and time (what is sometimes referred to as passion in some circles) is a race to the bottom.

Not dissing on all affiliate marketing folks out there - whether it's the review website or similar professionals trying to make an honest living from the service they provide.

But affiliate marketing as a whole is one of the shadiest internet industry. The coupon thing is one of the many tricks in the book to get your cookie everywhere and earn $$ without providing any value.

There's an awful lot of fraud like that but somehow the benefits seems to outweigh it because the industry is still alive and kicking.

Having seen numbers for some affiliate channels, my guess is that it's probably grossly overvalued but people still buy into that because the numbers look good, from afar, especially if you compare them to Search or Social. But the pricing model (CPA > Cost per Acquisition / Conversion) is different so I guess both sides are fine with that.

It's a mouse and cat game that is the usual playbook between the "good guys" and "bad guys", as you'd see in security, pirating, etc ...

The aromas and flavors of vanilla extract are exactly what you will taste in your finished product. They don't really transform into anything, the ethanol and water just evaporate and leave you with the dissolved solids from the bean. Tasting it in raw or extract form tells you what it'll taste like in a finished product.

Flour, on the other hand, varies greatly in its end result based on the genetic variant, grade quality, and milling, in combination with amount of water and the mechanical process of mixing. You can determine the effect on the cake by looking at the type and grade of flour, along with its moisture content. I wouldn't advise eating it.
Neither of those points could possibly be a problem.
You are correct from one point of view. But, the point I was making was that the class definitions for bg color can be contained within a single file in your application.

I don't like the idea that Google or any other entity can control how I think by presenting only one side of a story when the other side may have a reasonable objection, because it does not fit the politics of the operators of a platform. This is within the spirit of free speech.

It is easy to say that in the abstract, but you always have a finite time/resource budget for doing work. Effort spent upgrading is effort not spent doing other important work. Is the other work more important in the long run? The answer is not trivial to answer.

This is why we call it 'tech debt'.. it is just like any other debt. You take it on because you don't have the current resources to avoid it, and you calculate that it is worth taking it on. But then, you are carrying the interest on it, and if you aren't careful it will grow to be unmanageable, and all your dev effort goes into just paying the interest without paying the principle.

The simplest reason would be that "AIDS" is pronounced as a word, like "LASER", "SONAR", or "SCOTUS", while "HIV" is pronounced as a series of three letters. The pronunciation of HIV makes it essentially impossible to spell it with lowercase letters ("OK" being the only exception that comes to mind).
I hope the EU comes after them for this. Using data collected for a completely separate purpose (ie 2fa) for advertising is blatantly evil. Not to mention this "shadow data" isn't request-able, and probably not deletable.

similar to that foxes experiment, i think instead of just teaching bettongs to fear they should have just selectively bred those bettongs who is naturally most fearful. Giving the short lifespan and that such selective breeding would take only a few generations, in several years they would have a population of bettongs genetically wired to fear the predators and thus much better fit for survival in the current conditions.

> What, exactly, is wrong with the expectation that people make senior level eventually?

The problem is when you base too much on promotion systems and performance reviews, that end up as a form of bias and favoritism not closely approximating the truth. Some amount of people are doing useful work for you (like cleaning up after people you think are the high performers) that does not surface there, and when you crap on them, pass them up, bust their morale, make them afraid of their next review, etc., you risk losing their valuable contributions.
Well, in the UK TV news is supposed to be politically unbiased and neutral by law. It's not and the stations all have quite strong biases, it's not so obviously about specific parties but rather specific issues that journalists happen to care about. Moreover it's become common for journalists to openly admit to political bias and nothing to be done by the regulator. This is why I've come to believe that neutrality laws are a waste of time.

W.R.T. Question Time, I'm not sure what you mean by "terrible people" (this itself seems like a rather problematic extension of political views to inherent goodness or evilness of a person), but it's pretty common for the BBC to fill Question Time panels with people who are not representative of the country, e.g. one person who is in favour of Brexit and all the rest are against. Presumably if political neutrality was aggressively enforced they'd try to match viewpoints on political panel shows with the rough proportions you'd find in the actual population.
I think i'd just much rather spend the short time I've got left in my one existence doing things outside of work that actually make me happy and fulfilled, than being exploited for the benefit of the mostly rich and powerful and the illusion of "progress". If you truly get fulfillment from that stuff then more power to you, but I don't think the vast majority of people who are pressured to perform do.

Just because we have more "stuff" and more advanced "technology" doesn't make life more worth living. Happiness levels across society don't increase alongside productivity.

Breach Handling and the High Ground
Said this yesterday in the other Facebook thread, and I'll say it again.

Working for Facebook is a morally bankrupt position. If you are an engineer you have plenty of job opportunities available to you and there is no excuse for you to continue contributing your labor and time to a wholly malignant organization. At a certain point one has to ask how we as an industry will start dealing with those who continue to take a paycheck from Facebook even in the face of constant and horrific evidence of wholesale ethical violations and negligence.

I think about this a lot too. All companies eventually decline or go through rough patches. A Google that's fighting for survival and losing money would be much more open to working with the Chinese government or selling user data to the highest bidder.

Yes, I've seen that problem before when working with journalists on stories. The journalist themselves understood the issue was somewhat grey, and the editor mangled what they produced to be much more biased.

I don't think it's purely about financial incentives to be honest. I suspect that many journalists view themselves as primarily social activists rather than chroniclers, and being able to directly influence society in a major way is effectively seen as part of the compensation package.
