Prior to HFT shops, embedded use cases might consider 100s of us to be the threshold for low-latency (40 instructions on a typical 8-bit micro running in single-digit MHz is under 100us, with no cache-misses to muck up timings).
> What really confuses me is the definition of "low-latency" nowadays

There has never been a strict definition of “low latency”. It is heavily context-dependent. Something which is not “low latency” enough for live audio or a car’s steering controller might be plenty fast for an internet text chat service.
Yes, it is dead just now. I guess I have to take another hosting option :)
Yeah for years I've already done what the link mentions -- basically make the side mirrors point quite some way out. Depending on the vehicle you may have a small "blind spot" still, which is why you _always shoulder check_ before changing lanes or turning!
The Car Talk guys used to advocate for this method. I did it for a while, and liked it. Until I almost killed a motorcyclist.
>You certainly easily can: effectively free (subsidized by tax payers).

That's not building cheap housing that drug users can afford. It's just getting someone else to pay.
This is false. My company has about 200 electrical engineers (I'm one) and there are probably 50 that have a P.E. and many in management...finding someone above you that you've worked for/with is not difficult and I say that as someone whose company puts nearly zero value on it. If I ever change jobs though, it could be valuable. My father is also a EE and his was required to advance.

> So what's needed, in my mind, is something with a user experience between the two - for games and applications to run in something more akin to a "package manager" mode than a basic browser window.

Maybe, just maybe, they could not run in a browser window.
The first thing I want to see on a high-security product web site (literally, the first item I see with my eyes) is a list of the individuals putting their names on the line backing up this security claim and a paragraph of why I should trust those specific people. Outside of that, this "phone" could be developed by the [insert TLA agency here] and released in order to gain access to highly sensitive communications from people who don't know better. I can't seem to find a single person's name or references on this site anywhere, so I would never trust that this device isn't wildly insecure.
Same here in BC, Canada, you will fail your road test if you don't shoulder-check on lane changes and even turns
Another language of this type was CHIP-8 [1] which was run on RCA 1802 based machines and the DREAM 6800 [2], an early Australian home computer which was built from a kit. CHIP-8 wasn't much of a language - it was really more of a simplified assembly language and virtual machine than anything - but it was certainly tiny.

> I don't need to worry about installing the game, or worry about what OS I'm on or where it was installed to or anything else.

Most people don't worry about that in any case. If I'm on Windows, I download the Windows version of whatever, and the installer does whatever. In a browser, you're just "installing" software to the cache. It's the same thing in a different wrapper.

>I go to the URL, and the game downloads if needed, then plays. Updates, local caching and storage, and more is all taken care of. If I want to play with a friend on some multi-player game, I send them the link, and they go to it and start playing themselves.

This is a good argument for HTTP as a distribution system, but you don't need a web browser for any of that.

>no "launchers" needed, no app stores which take a cut, no platforms which can decide that the game isn't suitable for their system, no app stores which can decide that the app is too close to something they offer and removing it, no expensive publishing costs, and you have multiple browsers to choose from if you don't like any one in particular.

Except the browser is the "launcher" and the site you download from being an "app store" for all intents and purposes, entirely capable of curating or charging money.

Pinning your dependencies is an antipattern (or at least in the eyes of many people who support monorepos it is).

It results in one of three things:

1. People never update their dependencies. This is bad (consider a security issue in a dependency)

2. Client teams are forced to take on the work of updating due to breaking changes in their dependencies. If they don't, we're back at 1.

3. Library teams are forced to backport security updates to N versions that are used across the company.

But really, the question to ask is

>don’t make breaking changes on patch or minor versions

How can you be sure you aren't breaking anyone without running their code? You can be sure you aren't violating your defined APIs, but unless you're perfect, your API isn't, and there are undocumented invariants that you may change. Those break your users. Monorepo says that that was your responsibility, and therefore its your job to help them fix it. Polyrepo says that you don't need to care about that, you can just semver major version bump and be done with it, upgrading be damned.

No semver means that you, not your users, feel the pain of making breaking changes. That's invariably a good thing.

This is exactly the issue. In Android world innovations are fragmented and there is no one package that has all of these combined. If you want Samsung features then you lose out on LG features.
It's not necessarily the case that nobody has a problem with it, it's just the status quo, and the front lines of most political issues are on one side of the status quo or the other. The "don't work with China" side would push across to "stop working with Russia" if they had the strength to.
About 12% worldwide adoption, about when Android 9 got released.

OEMs got around Treble certification by releasing mostly devices with Android 7 on them.

And given that OEMs were the ones supposed to push Treble updates not Google, even those that released devices with 8 weren't that active pushing them.

Which has finally made Google include some update requirements on the Play Services access.
In addition to the factors you mention, there's also freedom from chronic stress.
You could just as well argue that electrons are conscious because they can read our minds while we do experiments and are trolling us by creating some made-up rules they've invented which happen to look like quantum theory.

One can argue similarly to give a possible explanation for anything. It's not a question of whether it could be this way but rather what seems to be the most plausible explanation. The argument you gave above (I know it's not one you are seriously purporting) seems much less likely to be correct than the one Sabine gave.

My reading of Sabine's argument is that we get the random behavior from particle collisions you expect if quantum mechanics is correct and thus electrons aren't conscious. The particles follow randomness and not what one would think would occur if there was consciousness/free will involved. Yes, she seems to make the connection between the two concepts.

I don't know if Sabine is correct but I certainly don't think

Both make as much sense, and both are equally unhelpful as rational arguments.

Apple Maps is a complete joke compared to Google Maps, especially when in a city.

Apple Maps is horrendous with navigation and is frequently out of date. For example, my partner was sent an address, they clicked the address and Apple Maps opened. After two hours of driving, we realized Apple Maps had silently changed the address slightly because it thought we were wrong.

We caught the error and tried to correct. Apple was insistent that the address didn't exist, while Google Maps happily did what we asked.

I uninstalled Apple Maps from my partner's phone.

All of this is to say: Apple is not competitive with Google in a lot of respects. Even in OS, they are different ideals and aren't interchangeable in my opinion.
My friend is actually a EE (graduated with him) and he went to work at the highway department as a civil (had a family member that worked there and wanted to stay home). I just remembered that we talked many a moon ago and he told me the traffic light timings were in a table which made zero sense. I believe he changed the timing, but not sure.

consciousness is literally the most mysterious thing unknown to man, and all evidence which you authoritatively dismiss because "you just know" points to it being the brain. if I were personally to scientifically define it, it would be: given the same stimuli in the same exact setup, 2 different outcomes can be observed. We call this choice.

This completely clashes with Newtonian physics, but quantum mechanics - maybe not. In physics, we describe the environment with equations and theories that fit an observed outcome, but we don't describe the reason for how it works. The classic: magnets - how do they work?? I can tell you how they'll behave, how energy is moved around by elementary particles, but that tells me nothing of what it actually is.

If choice is something that exists, the world is particles and energy, and doing a lot of math on the movement of energy and particles can predict what those particles will do - we have opposing ideas which are both observed to be true. Now whether choice actually exists or not is debatable. But that also depends on how we view time through our body's sensors. Does that fact that a choice I make is predetermined negate the fact that I make the choice? You can say that a point in the future already exists, and I just need to get to it. Just like the waffle house exists, but for me it's only there once I walk to it.

This is absolutely physics. Your wild declarations are not made stronger by you talking like you got it all figured out. So again I ask - Christian? Because if so, the argument stops here, as it's pointless to debate it with you.

Yup, lower for Art and even lower for Design usually. Producers/PM tend to be close to dev salaries.

The real twist on this is that these aren't stable jobs either. Every studio I know had some sort of closure/downsizing around the 3-5 year mark. I know many people who had to be constantly moving between SEA/SF/Austin/etc just to keep a job across a career.
As an ex motorcyclist I would never make any sort of turn without a glance over my shoulder. You make a mistake on a bike you die. That makes for some good training. I always think everyone should spend a little time in such a vulnerable situation when they learn.

2) Staff consider Bay Area is "making it" and are happy to flit between local employers, ranking up their salary as they go.

...And all other times. The entire history of the US was built on an entire group of people being legally “un-personed” for purely economic reasons.

Not purely economic. There were ideological reasons used as well.

Are you sure it’s this phenomena you find troubling, or is it just who’s being targeted today?

The troubling part, is that the population who historically had the rights, and practiced the exercise of them is now giving them up, spreading the narrative that they don't matter, and trying to take them away from others through de-facto power or intimidation. (Which has nothing to do with indelible characteristics, and only has to do with the status of citizenship.)

I’m trying to be charitable, yet I’m struggling to frame your comment in another way.

This is precisely the language the "un-personing" perpetrators use to intimidate people into silence and giving up their rights. Sorry, but I'm not buying it.
So some means of legal tax reduction are fine and others are not? How do you arbitrarily determine which is which?

The rule by the books is not car lengths, but two seconds. Easier to measure seconds, and cars are difference sizes so less arbitrary. 2 seconds tends to be just slightly longer than your rule.

Those who study human reaction times figure that from the time something happens, you notice and you get your foot physically moved to the brake and push hard enough to make a difference 1.75 seconds have passed. Thus 2 seconds is a minimum.

Me, I dream of a monorepo covering the whole world. Give me a single hash, and let me know the state of things as they are, reaching from the toolchain used to compile the bootloader to the state of the database, which has just dropped a row and therefore generated a new commit, forever secure, an immutable history.

I accept the infeasibility of my dream. But I'd like my repo to cover as much as my tooling realistically allows.

This is a straw man too. We don’t flip a switch and suddenly all cars are driverless, and then we discover that they can’t handle all situations and everyone dies. We slowly scale it out to environments where it is provably safe. We will not see “top causes of self driving car accidents” because known conditions will merit additional development or restriction on usage. What kind of thing could conceivably make that list? Something like snow doesn’t fit, because they won’t run in the snow unless they’re safe to run in the snow.

You don’t need to be better than humans for all situations. You need to be safe. Humans are generally well above that threshold, except for when they’re drunk, high, tired, distracted, or otherwise stupid. It doesn’t really make sense to compare deaths per mile for cars vs attentive humans in stable conditions. Both can honestly be reduced to the point at which they’re practically 0 unless it’s the victim’s fault. We do need to be attentive to edge cases that cause cars not to be safe, but we can also observe the overall pattern and draw conclusions on how likely unknown edge cases are to be encountered.
Well, Obama OLC's legal memo advocated it explicitly, though.

From Wikipedia: 'Barron's memo was described by The New York Times Editorial Board as "a slapdash pastiche of legal theories — some based on obscure interpretations of British and Israeli law — that was clearly tailored to the desired result."[7] A lawyer for the ACLU described the memo as "disturbing" and "ultimately an argument that the president can order targeted killings of Americans without ever having to account to anyone outside the executive branch."[8]'

One could say it "became executive doctrine" then.
