I'm curious about this, because at Square we maintain our own homegrown log aggregation system, and it's not really a core competency.

While a lot of our logging needs seem like they would be fulfilled by this system — because we attach trace IDs to log messages, and because (at least in Payments) you can usually find the appropriate trace ID by searching for a Payment ID, which could be annotated too — there are definitely many times I've copy/pasted the text in quotes from a log-generating line of code in a Java or Go file, to find out if it's being executed, or as a handle into a subsection of code/logging.

In the linked design doc, you include a motivating tweet near the top, saying, “just give me log files and grep, I am dying”. But unless I'm misreading things, there's no `grep` here. Right?

I'm guessing you could narrow down (using metadata) and then grep, but if the narrowest metadata you have is app name and time range, you're still going to be grepping over a lot of data…
To be honest I've never noticed the filter bubble everybody is talking about with Google. They can infer a lot from context, like city or previous searches, however that's primarily helping users, because coming up with precise search queries is not something that normal people can do and even power users like us fail at it.

I have been using DuckDuckGo because I'm making health related queries and I'm pretty scared of companies profiling me based on that.

But the experience with DDG has been worse, although it is definitely improving. And it's bearable, plus protecting my privacy is worth it.

I rarely type in duckduckgo.com. I just enter the search keyword into the URL bar and it takes me to DDG.
Yes, but there is not yet any proof that Bush or Cheney lied about these things to start the war. Many in the CIA were genuinely convinced that Saddam had WMDs and/or resources to create WMDs. They turned out to be completely wrong, but it was their belief at the time. I wouldn't exactly be flabbergasted or Bush or Cheney willfully lied, but just because that's a common narrative doesn't mean it's substantiated.

Gulf of Tonkin would be a much better example.

Yes. x32 uses the 64-bit registers of x86-64 but retains a 32-bit pointer representation. x86-32 does not have any access to 64-bit registers.

> So does it really matter if the upper 32bits are empty from a performance standpoint?

Yes!

main() would push %eax instead of %rax, effectively doubling your cache size (in words).

> I don't see how this will work without recompiling every library

The x86_64 abi uses registers for the arguments, so fopen() would receive file in %rdi, and mode in %rsi, but the caller only used %edi and %esi. When fopen() calls malloc() our libc knows we want 32-bit pointers, so it uses mmap(MAP_32BIT) so the pointer has the top bits clear and thus when fopen() returns the pointer in %rax, main() can still store it in a 32-bit pointer reading %eax.

Structs are certainly a problem. If main() tries to look e.g. at struct utsname, it would need to know (in this case) that these are "long" pointers rather than short ones. This pain would need to be handled by main() (for example, using wrappers of some kind), but it wouldn't require building or maintaining two sets of the libraries.
Awesome, can't wait to dig into this. Nice work.

I'm a big fan of outsourcing this sort of discipline to tools -- check out [Komet](https://github.com/zorgiepoo/Komet) for a commit-specific text editor that makes it easy to write better commit messages.
I have an earlier TECK from them, and it was OK, but the middle row used weird custom keys so key swapping was not possible in the middle stack. This fixes that and goes with a slightly more toward ergodox layout.

The interesting thing is the switches. Optical switches should never fail, unless dust intrudes. It's not a well-tested technology but time will tell on the design.
If it is biased to those who are suffering already or would suffer from it.

Theoretically if depression earlier in life protected against dementia (not likely at all but bear with me) it would actually raise the rates.

I wonder what the actual correlation is however even keeping in mind spuriousness.
Oh. I don't disagree and the habit thing is definitely part of it. When I'm traveling I find it very easy to get out of the habit of getting something/anything down on paper quickly even with the expectation that I would need to knock it into publishable shape when I have more time.

Personally, I'm also guilty with a number of things of the mindset that it's not worth chipping away at, it's too much to contemplate, etc. Writing can definitely be similar.

Instead of duplicating the tape, you could avoid the generation loss by connecting the high quality tape player directly to the computer. You might need to insert an equalizer between them to make the frequency response match the cheap tape players these computers were designed for.

I side with you on this, I found it to be fantastically bad.

That being said, the defenders here have me suspecting that I may have misjudged it or misinterpreted it some. There is also a fairly popular tv show based upon it. It is very polarizing, perhaps it’s the age of the reader or some other experience that makes it so.
If you're not a native english speaker working in tech, google will sometime show you (in my case) French forums or websites even if the query was entirely written in english. It is quite annoying, and i often get better results using ddg and !g than using google itself.
It’s defiantly something that’s missing from the readme, and perhaps not that obvious in the grafana explore view either - but it is there! You can push a regexp match server side and have that distributed to each Loki node, giving you distributed grep.

Will make it more obvious. Davkals has an iteration of the UI that makes it a separate field, which will also help.
Just to take this down a certain path: having your foot amputated is better than having your whole foot cut off, but nobody is going to describe either as good choices.

Picking between running madly around an amazon warehouse for 15 dollars an hour or taking some other low skill job for less seems fine, until Amazon realizes that the workers are all interchangeable and the company benefits more by burning through them quickly and replacing them with fresh bodies than it does by continued support for its staff with long term plans of employment. The second they decide to exploit their labor for their sole benefit, rather than something that can be seen as mutually beneficial for both in the long term, that's when people start to feel you should be doing better.

Also, just to address a theme that gets thrown around a lot. >>Working at Amazon is literally no one's "only choice" in the US.

What does this mean? The US is a massive country with huge differences from one region to the next, never mind the difference between the urban and rural areas within a region. To try and pretend its a unified country with unified value systems and a unified equally distributed economic system is asinine. On top of that, who the fuck knows what's going on in "Joe Random-US-Citizen"'s life. Maybe it is his only option because he also has to take care of his dying father and is racked with student debt from a failed attempt at getting his BA. IDK what anyone's value choices represent, but this whole "you can always just do better if you really wanted" is a lie I'm sick of being peddled. The US is economically more advanced than many countries. There's still people living in relative poverty. There's still massive social problems.

Any time someone says any broad group (Americans, Gays, Engineers) all face the same situations, I have to roll my eyes because it's never true.

Sorry if this came across as a personal attack on your views (it isn't, I don't really know them from your 2 sentences), it's just something I see get brought up and this was me finally responding.
And it is not possible to leave that choice to the user? Sometimes I wouldn't mind explicitly instantiating the few variations I need if it meant faster compile times for the remaining files.

… am I moving goalposts? I do know about --first-parent and it is not intended to be a feature to make git logs readable. It gets rid of nearly the entire git history. At this point, you might as well simply go to the github page and look at merged PRs; that will actually get you something readable.

I fear you may be terribly misunderstanding the point of atomic commits and readable commit messages. Everything within a merge commit will still come up during a bisect, for example. If the commits are non-atomic and/or they are badly written, that is still an issue.

--first-parent hides the problem, and adds a new one. I'm not sure what your thinking is. Once again, what's more readable to you of all the screenshots I linked?

Sherlock and Poirot are great detective genres. I'm not sure if they really have parallels.

The French people however love their Inspector Maigret (by Georges Simenon). The Maigret books are apparently some of the best selling books in the Francophone world of all time. Inspector Maigret however is more procedural, and doesn't go for climatic reveals and does not have the flawed omniscient genius character that most of us are instinctively attracted to.

I'm reading "Extreme Ownership" and it's a really entertaining read. The only offputting aspect is the nonchalant way they describe killing enemy combatants and the language they use is somewhat deragotory towards their adversaries. But I'm not sure you could survive sane through the things the authors went through without a bit of dehumanization of ones enemies - enemies that have killed your friends and colleagues and that you've had to kill yourself.

War is really ugly, but I liked the rational tone nevertheless and the techniques they use to stay focused and organized in a totally chaotic environment.

Systems analysis, nihilistic violence, group psychology, mindless cruelty towards animals, building leadership and team spirit - all applied to corporate consulting. 10/10 points, would read again. Would likely not want to be employed where this was considered the highest art of management literature.
In the article, they did this at the file level.

> I suppose it's possible the important bits of a high end cassete player aren't any better. Audiophile equipment is sometimes funny that way.

It's a different problem domain too. A non-linear tape head/amplifier may help with recovering pulses but have unpleasant distortion for audio.
It's not the number of syllables, it's the particular flow of those syllables and the number of full stops. I'm sure there's a linguistic term for what I mean. Consider "I'll just Googlify it" or "I'll just Dodogo it", which both sound better than "I'll just DuckDuckGo it".
> That being said, this exploitation of the working class has lead to a lot of technological innovation coming from the USA

This is one of the worst takes i've ever seen. Innovation doesn't come from exploitation, it comes from educated labor. They doctors/engineers/inventors would have done what they were going to do, regardless if someone was taking 50% of their labor as profit for themselves. In fact, it was probably in spite of. Russians went to space without any profit incentive whatsoever.
I work at Amazon as a Senior Software Development Engineer. (Obviously, my opinions are my own, and I don't speak for the company in any official capacity.)

I don't doubt any stories shared in that article, but none of those match my personal experience. I'd imagine like at any large company, some of it will depend on who your boss is, and in my particular case my boss is very clear that family stuff is first priority, and that any "crunch time" should be limited both by length and frequency of occurrence. When people on our team have health issues, have to take care of sick children or spouses, have to deal with car or apartment problems, they go and deal with it and I've never seen any teammates be anything but supportive of that.

At most of the companies I've worked at prior to Amazon, it was common to have people stay until 6:30 or later. When I stay until 6:30 or so (which I do because I commute from NJ into the city, and so my schedule lines up with train times - not because I'm being overworked), there are usually not many people around.
Yup. Good old corruption. Funny fact I learned recently: The US is one of the most corrupt countries in the first world, especially at the state and municipal level.

The only reason 8GB RAM can be considered "low" instead of "appropriate for most workloads" is Chrome.
I think it's somewhat insidious in that it forces a confrontation between workers and customers and the benefit goes to the owners. it also gives the impression that the product (lets say food) is 20% less than what is printed. yes I u/d tipping is optional, but it is more or less expected (at least in nyc) and you can be ostracized if you don't participate.
I don't see why people discard the scenario where both the sources and supermicro are right, but there's been a misunderstanding.

This could happen, for example, with a tabletop exercise. I know the military does these, so it's not unlikely the CIA does them too. The CIA dreamt up a scenario where a US company's hardware was compromised by China, and simulated their response for training. Since it's just an exercise, it obviously wasn't as secret, so employees would have probably not feared to talk about it loudly at e.g. lunch break. Someone overhears, it, runs to bloomberg and we have the situation we have now.

Not the only scenario, but something along these lines is my theory.
Are you talking about the Cortex Prometheus service? They're working on transferring that to Grafana branding.
Because they are logically grouped and that grouping is often more important than the commits themselves -- together, they accomplish a higher-level goal.

You want both that goal and the individual tasks which achieved it to be visible.
Interesting. I've used Dillo before on my N900, but I didn't know it had its own engine; I always assumed it was Yet Another Webkit.
I would appreciate it if they first focused on getting their Kubernetes integration working with anything other than Google cloud. Or maybe add support for RBAC, or a variety of other things that make some of these amazing features like auto devops workable for the common man without having to spend weeks setting it up.

If I try to install gitlab on Kubernetes I have no less than 4 ways to do it, and none of them work perfectly.
Maybe it's a geographic thing?

I feel like anyone who grew up in a region where duck, duck goose was a common game for children to play wouldn't be too confused about the name.

Not that being confused about the name or disliking it is a bad thing. But I like the name, and it's part of the reason I chose to start using DDG.

If they changed it to something more generic, I'd be less likely to keep using it because I'd feel less of a connection to the brand. If I'm going to use something that generic and corporate, then Binging sounds more fun than Ducking.

I do realize that potentially losing me as a user doesn't mean this would be a bad move for DDG overall.
The original project had generic commits .. harsh. Mine are just a tad too cryptic. It's so damn easy to be fooled by everything you have in mind when coding..
That's absolutely hilarious and I love it.

These techniques are more general psychological tools than specifically about controlling bias. They're also meant to be internally-facing, not necessarily for sharing outside yourself. In the context of the original question about "brain hacks" (not necessarily group dynamics) the underlying thread is finding ways to change your perspective in order to gain insight, which is a very useful "brain hack" indeed!
What you're describing only gives you half the benefit of x32. For the code you write yourself you can compile it in 32bit only mode and do those tricks. But for everything that's from a library you're using 64bit code and not getting any speedups. Depending on if your code is library heavy or not that can make a huge difference.

All that complexity is certainly not worth it versus just shipping a second set of x32 libs. At least that doesn't require those tricks and wrappers and is at least easy to maintain within the current multi-arch infrastructure distros already created to support 32bit binaries in 64bit distros.
The best books that I read this year were

Bad Blood by John Carreyrou (this book is about Theranos and is absolutely insane, it reads like a thriller)

Educated by Tara Westover (this is a fascinating memoir about a woman who was raised by fundamentalists and "escaped" to BYU)

The Undoing Proect by Michael Lewis (about the relationship between Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky and their research together)

The Rise and Fall of DODO by Neal Stephenson (I love all of his books)
7th for me (not counting the callout stories/maps/videos sections that split up the results)
I just say "I'm going to search for x" now and avoid the company name entirely.

Although as noted by a person responding here "I'll duck it" wouldn't be bad.
The solution is not to bandaid it by forcing a handful of companies to pay more generously, but to affect legislation that will provide everyone with the benefits and job security, regardless of employer. This would remove the inherent competitive advantages that large employers versus small businesses, and be easier to implement in the long run.
The CEO still manages and communicates the vision on a regular basis. Autonomy is a sliding scale.
