I had to check on the definition of bureaucracy, but I don't think this applies. The algorithms of Zerocracy are implemented via an "AI chatbot", for double buzzword bingo. I think bureaucracy requires humans, no? The better developers seem to be quite happy with the system, like being good at closing tickets or answering questions on StackOverflow.

This is an issue that I'm aware of, and I actually didn't think about a possible solution yet. Currently, it is in a VERY early stage, but I wanted to share it to get feedback from the community and how much interest the project could raise.

The only things that I thought were adding support for example for aliasing of some commands such as running `flake8` will actually call `flake8` inside the container. But it's still very fuzzy in my head.
There's a difference between a "conversation" and an "internet exchange".

In person, I agree completely. Skepticism towards your friends/ family/ acquaintances can easily poison the discourse and ruin relationships. If I have a discussion with a person I know, then I should absolutely give them the benefit of the doubt, and take what they say at face value unless they say something I find literally incredulous.

When you're having a discussion online though, it's a completely different story. People say stupid stuff on the internet, and "stupid" is a spectrum that goes all the way to "well-intentioned and seemingly-logical but poorly-researched and false". Online, and on a site such as this which aims for a certain level of discourse, every claim should be backed up. There's always somebody who disagrees that is going to read your comment, and you should give them a reason to reconsider their initial position.

This is not an easy thing to do. I believe a lot of stuff without knowing immediately why. This forces me to better account for my ideas, which helps structure my thinking. I'm not a strong enough logician to make infallible arguments, but by trying to convince an eternal skeptic, I only make my own arguments better.

I've been using this system for ~2 years and it has completely changed my life (not an overstatement).

About 6 months ago I realized that as more and more people found out about this (and Atlantic publishes articles about it...) these pumps were going to be harder to find. I immediately scoured craigslists across the county and spent an inordinate amount of money to buy three of these pumps, because once they break, it's game over.

I can't imagine having to go back to the old way, it actually scares me.
I believe the key finishing something is successful use of goals, and the key to successful use of goals is habits. If you can set an effective goal, and figure out how to frame it as a set of habits, you can accomplish it by adopting those habits.
That looks pretty cool! My immediate use for it would be in replacing tox.

It's a lot of downloading, but "docker pull python:3.7.3-alpine3.8" is far more reliable and simple than building from source. Especially for someone who just wants to test out a small contribution to a library.
And given a few rocks of particular mineral compositions you can build yourself an iPhone, it doesn't mean it's an efficient way to do it - in the case of the flexible japanese joints it might be that it needs to be done by hand to ensure the proper give, but I'd imagine a few modern tools would make it much easier to do.

Same as this general thread - access to good tools makes things cheaper and easier to do.
That was actually refreshing. Acknowledging that lectures, etc, produce "bored compliance" in students. I'm also very glad that something, anything, worked better.

Unfortunately, there's this little issue with education in the US: "local control". There might be national policies, but there's no good way to enforce them. Local school boards decide curriculum. This is why nothing can change fast, and maybe not much can change, period.

I'll also note the effect that divisive issues (evolution, accurate history) cause huge problems. There's basically no recourse for students if a local school system decides to abdicate teaching accurate history of civil war, WW1, or Reconstruction, for example, never mind evolution, a well established scientific theory. Sometimes there'll be a fooforaw about something ridiculous, like using modern books to teach literature, or not memorizing arithmetic facts.

I'm enthusiastic about WireGuard but I'm dubious about the "forklift" approach you describe. Actually, more seriously, I doubt in most cases that systems to be forklifted were truly secure originally and so while I don't think using WireGuard makes that worse, it may mean an opportunity is missed to fix more serious problems.

Presuming that by mTLS you mean mutually authenticated TLS, I don't see it as a good fit for internal systems - to me (as someone who has implemented mutual auth to considerable success) it's best where you have B2B applications, because you've got the three distinct parties that make a PKI worthwhile. Whenever I see a PKI in which all three of the parties are essentially identical I cringe, e.g. I keep seeing OpenVPN setups where one person runs the CA, runs the VPN server and mints all the private keys - the PKI is pure theatre in this approach, it makes no difference to anything.
It is not a good thing in this case. The mere suggestion that it might be a mistake is editorializing, not being neutral to the article. I assume the comment above is being diplomatic in it's wording, but being "neutral" about whether these convictions were intentional or a mistake is not the same thing as neutral reporting.

The topic of AI or algorithms making mistakes is not relevant to this article at all. It doesn't summarize the content, and the implication that it might be code run amok, in the title, is super misleading and undermines the positive things the people in the article are trying to do, both the politicians who did the right thing, and the efforts of Code For America.
I didn't follow how this relates to docker. Does running the pydocenv command modify dependencies stored in the Dockerfile (or a file that pydocenv references within a "pip install -r ___" command inside the Dockerfile)?

It seems interesting, in that I respect any library (eg pyenv or pipenv) that tries to solve the issue with pip has compared to npm or cargo, where the installation of a library isn't coupled to the dependency tracking. I just can't see from the examples how this is preferable to changing a requirements.txt file and then rebuilding the docker image
Just to be clear, we are not working on it. However it is something I would like to start looking into sometime soon :) This is a huge area for contributions as I myself am not a grid expert (as apposed to having worked on flexbox engines past 3 years).
> They continue to drop in value day by day

Pinterest hasn't had a down day yet.

I agree with you that the increase in late-stage rounds and consequent delayed IPOs is generally a bad thing, but not sure SoftBank is the primary culprit. And certainly during the dotcom days companies went public much sooner but that didn't prevent a bubble and subsequent crash requiring a decade+ of recovery. MSFT didn't get back to their 1999 high until 2016.

I’m somehow amazed that everyone alive is a whopping 7% of everyone that ever lived.
Hi Kevin, I'm wondering where you see Wormhole fit into the ecosystem alongside heavier systems like Istio, which offer many more features than just mTLS. Do you think Wormhole and Istio could be deployed together, using Wormhole for mTLS and turning it off in Istio, and some advantage in doing so? Do you see Wormhole's focus as being tuned to situations where the relative heaviness of solutions like Istio are not necessary and only the lightest solution possible is desired? Does that mean that Wormhole should be viewed more as "include this with my application designed for small / lightweight environments" or "include this with my Kubernetes distro, and config applications running on that distro to best use Wormhole"?

Cupping and ear candling almost certainly aren't killing people directly. Alternative-medicine vitamin use has a significant death toll, but not an active one; high-dose vitamin regimes are commonly pushed as a cancer treatment, keeping people from effective treatments during early stages.

Homeopathy mostly kills people in the same negative sense of effective treatments skipped, but every so often it does actively cause a bunch of deaths. Several different companies have sold homeopathic medicines for infants with potentially-lethal levels of belladonna in them; the sort of thing which might be prevented if homeopathic drugs didn't have a special exemption from FDA rules around testing purity and strength. More commonly, homeopathic medicines for adults like ear and eyedrops end up causing deafness and blindness.

These things aren't especially common killers, and if the comment above was implying that alternative medicine's existence means the FDA doesn't serve a purpose, that's absurd. But the narrower point is a good one: in a country where there are special legal protections for people who peddle neurotoxins to cancer patients, it's not so wild to suggest that our regulations could be greatly improved by obvious changes.

If he is on Android I'd recommend xDrip+ for the CGM readings. It is really nice to have on the phone with control over the data and ability to upload if he wants. Also great to be able to snooze and set the alarms as desired.
Even more important than removing agricultural subsidies and tariffs would be to implement laws that require humane treatment of these living, breathing creatures. Prices would soar and alternatives would prosper if factory farms were not allowed to torture animals.
I forgot to answer this:

> You're tracking dozens of projects? Following every twist and turn of dozens of projects sounds like a huge time-suck, but maybe we just work differently.

The thing is, GitHub provides granular access. You can just star a project, and return to it when you want. You can follow a specific issue. You can follow every twist and turn of a project.

Depending on my current interest or area of research, I can deal with any number of active projects which I may "snooze" when I no longer need them (but will still get notifications on conversations/issues/PRs I'm involved in).

And to do all that I don't need to be a part of multiple mail lists with no control of what gets sent or muted.

I also have direct access to all the PRs and issues where I'm involved without needing to remember which mail list it was on. And without needing to discover those mailing lists in the first place (is it an <x>-users mailing list? an <x>-dev? an <x>-development? an <x>-contrib? an <x>-patch? what are the rules? etc.)

Github is extremely convenient for a very large number of otherwise tedious tasks.

Ah yes, pipelines do make a difference in configuring jobs. However, how are you managing your plugins? Your Jenkins configs? Most likely those are manual (however if you've found a way that works well, please share). I've also found that for some functionality, I've had to add Groovy into my pipelines.

That said, pipelines has made a HUGE difference. I still want to migrate but this fixes a large pain point.

I went through a Wikipedia rabbit hole of articles on the political history of China, and was reading about Deng Xiaoping’s “Socialism with Chinese characteristics”: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socialism_with_Chinese_charact...

Then I found this line:

> ”According to writer and researcher Yasheng Huang and many others, the economic theory in China is not socialism with Chinese characteristics, but the opposite—capitalism with Chinese characteristics.”

This is an interesting point because it’s hard to imagine China would be in their present economic position without embracing “capitalist tendencies” in conducting trade domestically and internationally. Capitalism and privatization seem counterintuitive to Communist socioeconomic principles, yet have yeilded “good economic times” for many millions of Chinese since the late-1980s.

The successive point is how committed is China to the ideals of Socialism? Will the left hand do one thing while the right hand does another, so to speak? Could socialism and capitalism work together symbiotically? Will socialism and capitalism bring out the problems with each other? Will a new “Chinese system” emerge? I don’t know the answers, but it’s an intriguing thought process with far reaching ramifications in a country as large as China.

In my experience, the lowest-of-code solutions involve tuning a stack to the domain or environment. Most existing frameworks try to be everything to everybody, which gums things up with complexity and/or debugging headaches when they don't work as expected.

The best frameworks are kits of decomposable or separable parts that make it easy to tune to your org, including throwing out parts your org doesn't need. Trim trim trim.

Do keep a library of handy add-ons, but don't pre-gum-up your stack by including them by default.

The downside of this approach is that you must know the organization fairly well.
Yes, the number of pump models that were hackable was extremely small, which made them extremely valuable to anyone looking to do this. The new work on the Omnipod should open this up to many more people who couldn't obtain an older (far out of warranty) pump.
Engineering is just one part of a complex system so why do you think engineering should be blamed 100% for failures that occurred due to the whole system?

Because that's the only way something this complicated can possibly work. Fault tolerance is optional only if failure is considered to be a valid option.

Getting back to what happened in this case: at some point, a Boeing engineer was asked to make MCAS work with input from only one AoA sensor. That person could have made all the difference by saying, "Lol no," and SPEEA would have had their back.

And the fact that you only get _one_ .gitlab-ci.yml file. That is legitimate madness. Want modularized CI/CD configuration? Not in these parts, buster. Have submodule build dependencies? We laugh at your use case.

Same in Berlin. At a past company, we've happily switched from WeWork to Rent24 paying a fraction of the rent for a bit less involved offering, and can just highly recommend it.

When I have some time I could try adding a `How does it work` section.

Under the hood the creation of an environment corresponds to the creation of a docker container (that's how it relates to docker). The docker container is built starting from a the official python docker images as you can see here https://github.com/se7entyse7en/pydockenv/blob/master/pydock....

The activation of the environment corresponds to the start of the container. Hence inside the container, you don't have (don't need) to have any virtual env as the isolation is already provided by the container itself.

Every time you install a dependency, this is actually installed inside the container.

I’ve been running a UX/UI design service for B2B SaaS companies for many years (http://fairpixels.pro), which has given me valuable insights into what makes SaaS companies fail & succeed. Many of them are well over that $1M ARR mark. Here are some of the elements I’ve seen the successful companies have in common that got them where they are today.

- Sell to businesses : Even some of the B2C SaaS apps I’ve worked with, switched to selling to companies because it’s relatively easier to build a highly profitable business in less time. I’ve seen companies price their product ‘too low’. Which lead potential customers think their product was crap. Your price creates a perceived value in the eyes of your customers. And the best customers are businesses

- Don’t worry about competitors : None of the successful SaaS apps were unique one-of-a-kind ideas. They entered existing markets with existing, large players.

- Target businesses in an industry you know : Usually translated as ‘follow your passion’, but really it’s about diving into industries you know something about. You know the potential customers, their painpoints, etc. If you’re going to build a SaaS app that’s in an industry outside of your comfort zone, it’ll be a slow uphill climb.

- Keep it simple : Many engineers feel uncomfortable launching something simple. They keep adding features in order to make themselves feel good about the level of complexity their product has. Really 100% of the successful companies did 1 thing really really well.

- Solve a problem : Don’t start thinking of solutions based on a tech stack you know. Find a problem some of the companies you know have. Spend 80% of your time understanding that problem really really well. This means understanding the amount of money it is costing these companies. How much time they are wasting because of it. The words they use to describe that problem, etc. Engineers are usually very good at building the solution. The hardest part is understanding the business problem inside out.

> It will only cause the resultant crash to be all that much more damaging.

But if Lyft and Pinterest are already trading below IPO prices, doesn't that indicate that the public markets are taking the pre-IPO private valuations with a grain of salt?

I'd be much more worried if those stocks skyrocketed, creating a tidal wave of other IPOs with weak fundamentals hoping to cash in because of good timing.
From my experience, 80%+ of WeWork people are in tech (but I've only been to the Santa Monica one and the DTLA one, so take my experience with a grain of salt).

> The difference is that Walmart won't require a monthly subscription to access these shows, but will instead generate money through "new advertising technology." This is described as "shoppable" content, with television shows that can directly lead to customers buying products online: "Not only will viewers see ads, they will have the option to buy products seen in shows, such as paper towels or soft drinks."

Recently used nested R-Trees for in memory geospacial querying for a game (millions of atomic updates a second which would be a pain to manage sharding as items move around the world).

For example as a tree gets too big I split it at the hot spot and run the job processing for each tree on separate threads.

Few years ago implimented a simple tree for a survey product I built. The pathing in the survey is stored in the tree and I use the tree to find loops (which are invalid) in the survey.
