Fake news is generally understood to be baseless lies. Incorrect or misleading news describes most of all genuine news coverage.
I don't think "encouragement" is quite right, ambiguities are somewhat the default - it's the opposite of encourage, an absence of something, there must be a competitive force present to reduce their likelihood.

I think there are less ambiguities in common language because they share so much context and compete; where as there is enough separation between certain disciplines for the semantics of esoteric words to evolve and coexist independently without issue until viewed externally where it appears ambiguous - this is even true for mathematical notations.

Oooh, I so very much want that. Thanks, I'll check it out!
This is a very great book for people who want to get started coding for free.

I both kickstarted and reviewed this book on Slashdot back when it came out. https://books.slashdot.org/story/13/01/09/160246/book-review...

The author is an awesome guy and accepts all errata with nothing but positive gratitude!
There's a guy who does that. But he does things like 1000 situps, pushups, etc. Massive volume.

> reusable (or at least, partially reusable) rockets

No such thing. A "reusable" rocket means you waste capacity carrying fuel for the return trip, and so raise the costs.

It's not like you can refuel the rocket once you get where you're going.

This is the reason why nobody uses "reusable" rockets today, not tech. (The tech was available back in the '60s.)
You wouldnt ever see the colors. They are far too dim without magnification. If you were standing in the cloud you would probably see it a little, like we see our galaxy as a blurry cloud, but only on the darkest nights.
Fargate offers no variable pricing to my knowledge. No spot instances, no reserved. You pay per CPU and memory unit per hour, that’s it.
I guess one glaring difference might be that they got this right when it mattered. Not a single Saturn V ever failed during launch. The aerospace engineering culture is vastly different than the "engineering" that goes on in ML/AI, and software development more generally. I have a lot of respect for it.
Emotional response -> clicks. They need clicks to keep their job.
What if they ask for permission in a less intrusive way? Like I dunno, send people an e-mail after using the site once with clear information?
But like, if you were more passionate about your job, it would be more rewarding! Maybe not monetarily; but think of all the interesting people you get to talk to as an Uber driver!
Rational people are cautious, not paranoid.
> The terrible user experience of slack and discord is why I started using IRC even more. emoji, images, link previews, and the like all lead to annoying/awful spam. Instead of a conversation you get a stream on memes and image macros along with link and twitter spam.

I have experienced that to a certain extent on Matrix, but only in certain rooms that permit it. They are not usually #some_project but rather general channels like #linux

What I have found good is code sharing, (nothing a pastebin can't solve, except for the fact if it's a publicly logged channel the link may not work in the future). I only tend to hang out in technical related rooms.

> I find it derails the conversation and clutters the screen. Nothing less fun than trying to have a conversation and some idiot is posting "related" image macros flooding the chat with garbage.

> The bottom line is I want to talk to someone using text. IRC does exactly that.

I find the same with mailing lists vs bulletin boards. I think the barrier to a certain extent means people that have something worth adding will be bothered. A bit like this place. Imagine how HN would be if it was like 90% of Reddit these days shivers.

The engineer doesn't decide the schedule though. Usually their activity is controlled by having to do X tasks in time(X)-time(Y)=available_time, with Y being any set of reasons, political, financial, organisational that the engineers will accept as true.

Then as engineer what can you do? Either assume toxic Management (and switch Jobs) or do a subset of what you would usually do, and that means optimize for your own browser first and only work on bugs known to your management for the other browsers.

I wonder if the story of Elijah, who, according to the Bible received food from some ravens, could have some seed of truth?

Kings 17:2-6 “2 Then the word of the Lord came to Elijah: 3 “Leave here, turn eastward and hide in the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan. 4 You will drink from the brook, and I have directed the ravens to supply you with food there.”

5 So he did what the Lord had told him. He went to the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan, and stayed there. 6 The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank from the brook.”

Parameter Store is a bad choice for app configuration. Yeah I use it. But I wouldn’t trust it as an organization standard. There are unknown, unpublished, unchangeable Service limits where it will throttle you.

Even when using CF, I have to aggressively use DependsOn to keep multiple calls to the Parameter Store API from being called in parallel. We gave up and used DynamoDB for configuration for non sensitive parameters and created a custom resource to create Config values.

Yeah but the Secrets Manager at $0.25/month per secret is expensive.

There are linter plug ins for Visual Studio Code and other editors. There is also the new CDK which is suppose to be able to do checks based on the real stars of your environment like whether a specified subnet exists. I haven’t used it yet.

For example, you have a a property that you've spelt wrong, isn't the right data type, or isn't valid for that type of config. All of those can be evaluated when the dependency graph is generated. However, they are not, they are differed to when the API is called.

Some things CF could be more intelligent about knowing, but for the most part, each service does its own validation when you call the underlying API.

Not related to CF but for instance the CloudWatch GetMetricData API has what seems like dozens of generic vslidations. The parameter store only allows certain formats for the keys. How would CF know that you specified an invalid key? Can you imagine how much slower Cf would be if it had to call some type of prevalidare API on each resource before it created it? To get an idea, think of how slow the new drift detection feature is and it is only doing read operations.
I can do more if I'm allowed to make my own schedule. Throw a couple hour workout + lunch in the middle of the day and I can go back to mentally consuming work. Too few companies recognize that they are shooting themselves in the foot with the strict 9-5 or whatever hours.
> proceed to get a range of answers shows that there really isn't a working, usable, generally accepted definition

You probably do. If you think of definition as some mathematical description that strictly delineates what does and what does not qualify... that's not how human language definitions—or even human words—work.

I didn't talk about the whole nozzle. The first line of my post:

"A rocket engine nozzle produces thrust only for the part where the pressure is greater than atmospheric pressure"

With the word "part" I meant "patch of the nozzle surface".

Then you went on to talk how I'm wrong and talked about the chamber and the nozzle exit area etc. All irrelevant.

I guess it was a misunderstanding but it felt quite uncharitable.
Horsemanship is like this as well. Short lessons, end on high note. Get off and praise.

I use compounding as a model, where I evaluate the risk of pushing past comfort level based on whether I have the ability to return to a calm high note ending if my gambit goes sideways.

Regular small improvement yields a higher and more reliable trajectory than grinding toward inconsistent leaps that exhaust a lot of wasted effort. I'm learning there is a cargo cult around work and effort in that it is a substitute for the tact and intelligence you get with a lighter approach.

Like managers who think they are getting results by having staff work through suffering, and point to how hard people are working as an indicator of their ability to lead. Whether it's horses or people, it's always a disgusting spectacle.

The syntax for joins is unnecessarily complex. The difference in behaviour is determined by the operator used for comparison between the two tables. If there existed modifiers for the operators to be sensitive to nulls, no need for special syntax would be needed.

If we define /<op> to make the operator include nulls on the left side and <op>\ to include nulls on the right side, we can do joins of all kinds without the JOIN ON syntax.

Example.

inner join

select * from a,b where a.id=b.id

left join

select * from a,b where a.id=\b.id

right join

select * from a,b where a.id/=b.id

outer join

select * from a,b where a.id/=\b.id

> And with regards a probability distribution - are you going to say that at some point the object I've described above has a half a hole? That's actually an intriguing prospect, to say "What's the probability that this thing has a hole?"

Not "half a hole", but "kinda a hole". As in, "Is this a hole? Well, kinda. Not really, but it sort of is."
Slack doesn't support triggers in nearly as sophisticated way as IRC bounces can (believe me, I've tried).

I wasn't intended to compare IRC to Slack but since you've started us down this rabbit hole: I'd take IRC over Slack any day. Sure Slack is more "modern" and it can - in theory - do anything IRC can do. However IRC is more easily extendible and in a more versatile way. To be honest there's nothing Slack does that you couldn't also do in IRC - albeit some features might require a more modern IRC client than the terminal ones us geeks often harp on about (disclaimer: I've written tools for both IRC and Slack).

The problem with IRC faces isn't a technological one - it's just a mixture of NIH (not invented here) syndrome and capitalists wanting to make money from reinventing public domain tools as proprietary solutions with expensive subscriptions. Not that I have a problem with people wanting to make money - quite the opposite in fact - but I do take issue with people who say "this can't be done in X which is why Y exists" when the real reason is financially motivated rather than any technological shortcoming.
Founders are already 'working' more than that. They are typically thinking about their company with every waking hour.

With that said, it doesn't mean they are not getting plenty of sleep. What it means is that when they are not sleeping, they are probably working. At the gym, they are probably thinking about work. At social events, they are probably thinking about work. Etc... It's just the nature of getting a company off the ground.
I plan on adding this in a sequel :) Thanks for the suggestion!
It's the difference between focused and diffused thinking.

The reason that performance-oriented languages like C++ and Rust make a distinction there is to make it easier for someone reading the code to understand the performance implications of a piece of code. Accessing a field involves jumping to a statically-known offset, which is a minor and predictable cost, whereas calling a function could have any cost imaginable. It's reasonable for languages that prioritize ergonomics over extreme performance to make the decision to paper over that distinction.

Memories of Netscape, on dial up, waiting for the picture to load, but now the detail and resolution is so incredible. It's a great way to start a Monday!
Somewhat related, does anybody here know what compiler flags to use to get "friendly C" (aka do-what-I-mean, or high-level assembler)? I want it to do the "obvious" thing in case of UB, for example dereferencing a pointer will just simply read the memory at that address.

(I can live without the optimizations, as most code I write is bounded by algorithmic complexity, IO, or not performance sensitive. If I find it neccessary, I'd tune the options for a specific piece of code.)

I know about:
-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks -fno-strict-aliasing -fwrapv

Are there any other such options?

On the Potential Adoption and Price Appreciation of Bitcoin in the Long Run
The concern I have is someone will intercept the card, grab its details, and then repost it to me. They just have to wait a couple days/weeks and I’ll have activated the card by then. They will then have my name, address, card number and ccv values— often enough for online purchases. Some of my cards ask for a secondary password but not all my cards and not all the time.

Requires someone able to intercept the post (eg corrupt postal employee or subcontractor), and the ability to create a convincing replacement envelope/letter, but it is all achievable, and I expect not everyone will properly scrutinise the envelope/letter/card for signs of tampering. Even for me, with a new card only once every 3 years or so, how can I tell the difference between their letter being tampered with and them just using a new/slightly different design?

In Rust, using smart pointers is not much of an "explicit choice" - it's simply the idiomatic thing to do when something might be kept around by more than one parent object.

Rc<T> basically means that there are multiple sources of control over T's lifetime, but these are all within a single thread; and Arc<T> signals that the control might extend to multiple threads. It's not "mere implementation" that we're dealing with here; it's the very semantics of the code as it relates to Rust's expanded take on the well-known RAII pattern.

Swift simply lacks an equivalent to either the Rc<> specifier or e.g. Rust's Box<>, which expresses the semantics of an object which is heap-allocated and accessed via an indirection, and verifiably has at all times a unique "owner" controlling its lifetime (as per usual RAII).

The cost of failure is higher in aerospace. But I must say that in my job, when you manage to make your modified code pass all the thousands of unit tests and see the benchmark results increase and the 80 cores of the test machine firing up, feeding GB/s of data in their pipeline at the optimal fillrate, there is something of of a "ignition aaaaaand liftoff!" moment that is deeply satisfying.

That's not entirely true, it would be similar to `Arc<T>` everywhere, because the Swift compiler and the language are by default not concurrency safe (there're runtime features to detect issues here, similar to RefCell though). This means that Rust has to use `Arc<Mutex<T>>` in order to satisfy the compiler, Swift gets away with `Arc<T>` (and I'm currently not sure, but it might even be only `Rc<T>`) because the compiler doesn't prevent it.
