Really interesting take on it, and one I haven't considered before. Is there a name for this "military situation"? Sounds interesting and logical, at least from a military perspective.

The thing I'm thinking is: In the military, roles and units of soldiers/ops are very clearly defined: The purpose of the unit, the actions that individuals within the unit execute, etc. So I would imagine that special-forces calibre people would not often show up in more elementary troops and/or they'd make promotion, shift upwards/side-ways to somewhere where their skills would be a better match to the goal of the unit.

In business teams you usually have much more variance in requirements on the team, the individual members, their skills and knowledge, and oftentimes also much more variance in capabilities per team member (possibly related to the fact that the missions for these teams are not always clear-cut and the fact that the teams have to handle widely varying stuff from moment a to b). I think that for smaller businesses this variance is even higher as compared to teams in larger corporations.

Regardless, I think it is damn interesting to look at what armies do organization- and skill-wise, I've never looked at that more in-depth.

What makes them not a "publisher"?

A publisher is a person or company that prepares and issues books, journals, music, or other works.

Their site literally prepares recordings and streams for issue over the public(?) network.
To get nominal typing in C, wrap things in a struct. There shouldn't be any performance overhead (the generated code should often, if not always, be unchanged), and the boilerplate can be manageable (and you can unpack things locally when it starts to get too messy).

SEEKING WORK - Greater Seattle, WA area - 100% Remote

Do you find yourself frustrated with a lack of visibility and increase in latency with your K8 clusters?

How about Outages? Downtime? 5XXs thrown out of the blue?

Wouldn't it be great to get back to a time when your infrastructure was just simple, functional, and 'boring'?

If you've taken a look at some of the Real-World Kubernetes Failure Stories[1], you know that with great power comes great responsibility (and great opportunity for spectacular failure).

Your engineers can tell you about that responsibility. They'll tell you that the savings you expected from Kubernetes has been overwhelmed by sunk engineering time troubleshooting, fixing, and maintaining your k8s cluster.

If you're looking for a solution that takes you back to simple, functional infrastructure, we're experts in such migrations. Reach out and send us an email (jahodges419 - at - gmail.com) to start the conversation.

We specialize in migrating your business to a simple, functional, 'boring' platform that Just Works(tm), letting you and your engineers get back to focusing on your product, without worrying when that next opaque 'notReady' error message will come from out of the blue.

I think I agree. instead of having the federal government back loans for students to attend private college, why not just double down on funding for public universities?

there are already some very high quality state universities in the US where you can get a first rate education. fund these schools to the point where tuition is somewhere between $0 and $5000 a year and see how the elite private schools justify their prices.

They can filter out the boxname part of temporal+boxname@mytld.com, but they can't, in general, filter out boxname@temporal.mytld.com - it would break too many things. I guess it's possible to recognize mail for mytld.com is handled by FastMail, but I'm not sure anyone bothers. In my case, almost all spam I get comes to an alias I have in my Facebook profile, and the rest of it to an alias I put on my website - so in both cases, I assume spammers just scrapped the e-mail address.
To be fair random inspection is the only (albeit imperfect) way to work. If you give notice you are easy to game.

That said I remember teachers doing lessons specifically because an unplanned school inspection was happening. Some things can still be gamed. Perhaps the only option is find a way to measure continuously if at all possible, and make sure the risks are high enough to not be worth taking...

What else? Probably make it financially better to go above and beyond environmentally? So it's not a cost centre.

In most development work team productivity is more important than individual productivity. I have found that the best approach is to have co-located team rooms. (And the team members should be working on the same project. Putting people together does not make it a team. If everyone has a different project, that’s not a team)

If the work has to be done individually, then there is no point in being co-located. Remote works well.

Co-located teams communicate well, decide and move quickly, and has much higher trust between team members.

Work that does not require too much communication, speed and collaboration is more suitable to remote.

This hybrid approach worked well for us.

Have you ever used a video conference or collaborative online whiteboard? If the actual scribbling is important, have you heard of these things called drawing tablets?
A good point but to assume it applies to all tests and invalidates the metaconcept might be too strong. It would not be hard to wipe both with fruit beforehand or wipe handles with alcohol etc. So I assume within the discipline well formed experimental setups account for this because it's too easy to do, to ignore. The corvid waxworm experiment for instance is a choice between two foods not one food and none, and crucially the birds don't even bother testing the caches of insects which have aged out. Yes birds have a good sense of smell but I think this tends to a marginal issue in the experiment not a deciding factor.
> We didn't decide to guarantee free speech in "public spaces" for funsies. We did it because guaranteeing people the ability to meaningfully participate in the public political debate is a preventative measure against real world violence. If people cannot peacefully advocate for their interests, they are going to do so violently.

Is this supposed to threaten me?

I don't know where you're from but here in Germany there is a difference between public spaces and private spaces. You can suppress free speech in private spaces. You don't even have to allow access to private spaces while it's the other way around in public spaces. There are laws for that.

The amount of people does not matter. You can't display swastikas in a Bundesliga stadium just because there are plenty people there. The owner would throw you out and probably even report you to the police.

Censorship is something the state forces upon you. It restricts things in public spaces. There is no place left you can go in a state with censorship present to challenge that.

Misusing "censorship" for moderation of private spaces plays down the word. It wears it out and it ridicules people who really suffer under true censorship.

And please...spare me the drama. I grew up in a state with true censorship and I've been online long enough to see this ridiculous whining as what it is...

The article talks about a bunch of features around canary routing that Kubernetes does not have. All of these features are misfeatures. They are ingrained because it used to be easiest to deploy that way - you deployed to your Australian data center and so all your Australian users got the new version, and that was a good enough sample. Kubernetes makes deploying a canary easy, so deploy a canary everywhere.

Likewise, it complains that "10% canary is hard" because you need to scale the deployments in sync. This is a problem with your monitoring layer - Your alerts and triggers and thresholds should all be based on proportion of traffic, not the other way around. Your graphs should scale to the number of canary instances. Every canary metric should either be an absolute, or a proportion of traffic.

In short: Your canary should look as close to normal traffic as possible. There should be no appreciable differences between the traffic going to your canaries, and the traffic going to the rest of your production deployment. Your canary is a production deployment and any deviance needs to either be intentional or is a sign of defect.

I like to do this with laptops -- you can get a few years old maxed out Dell Latitudes, Thinkpads etc on ebay for 80% off. These outperform a standard new $800 laptop easily, though obviously you pay in sleekness/weight (mine is 90% stationary so I don't much care).
Likewise - there's either concern about competition from eastern Europeans (who are as pale as Brits are), or the increase in Islamic terrorism (which is obviously a religious concern rather than a racial one).

Both are not advocating any kind of racial supremacy but rather self-interest, and - like them or not - relatively common as judged by recent election results.

Don’t give me ideas.
I cannot recall ever arriving at an airport where any local couldn't have walked in the arrival exit, grabbed a bag off the belt, and walked out without passing any type of security whatsoever. Aren't the belts usually right by the exits? I mean, perhaps security is watching for that type of activity via cameras, but I've never seen a checkpoint to get out after getting my bags.
> This is because several fellow south Indians gave up their lives to ensure that north Indian language bigots would not have their way.

I know everything about these agitations. There is a huge difference between what happened in 1940s and what is happening today. You are just extrapolating your fears needlessly.

When I talk about "my lifetime" I talk about 30 years of my life. I was not born in the 1940s so there is no point talking about this period. If I have never had Hindi imposed on me should I lie about it just to please your political end-goals? Or are you one of those who loves to only dwell in the past and not accept any positive changes that have happened since?

The Centre today is not talking about "imposing Hindi". It is talking about a draft proposal of making a third language compulsory for all students in India. You should be welcoming that move. If I were you, instead of protesting against Hindi, I would be asking the Centre to ensure a Dravidian language is taught as a third language in the Northern Hindi belt. Now that is a constructive! That would unite the Country rather than balkanize it! But we have bigots on both sides who believe in their own language being superior!

This is way different from the C. Rajagopalachari order of imposing Hindi as the only common language across the Nation. If you are unable to differentiate between the two then no one can help you!

This article is a fishing expedition published by someone who is not involved in the field at all and wasn't peer reviewed by anyone who studies this seriously.

Speaking of fishy, the fish study was a small study where fish were literally swimming in roundup(not just glyphosate) at much higher concentrations than anything humans have contact with. Which tells us it's probably a bad idea to drink a glass of round up.

Here is a critique by an actual researcher in the field.

I'm a trans woman, so I'm gonna go ahead and be gentle when I say that my understanding does not match yours.

Some trans women are as you describe, preoccupied with passing and going stealth, especially for safety reasons. Many aren't.

You can speculate on if the term is gonna go away, but right now it's the best adjective to describe trans people. It's not offensive or a slur, it's literally the community's chosen language.

And you're right, sometimes it's better to be nice and gentle to people who are wrong. I won't be mad if you pop back upthread and correct them gently. We can do one of those good cop bad cop things.
Then I think there's a core distinction between hosting content and as you put it "finding new content for them". Hosting may fall under some common carrier scenario, but recommendations/search fall under curation and curation is very much back in the realm of TV/newspapers where the proprieter exercises control. I think that does entitle them to shape the political conversation, although I could see some argument for a great deal of transparency in exactly what they're doing in that regard.
Great linting tools available though. Can't say the same for many systems languages. And the static analysis tools for those tend to be quite expensive, bulky and slow.
Unlike news companies, commentators do not gain monetary value from sensationalism.

Authors of articles are generally more informed than their pieces suggest, but their editors step in and make the story "pop" for readers in order to generate clicks. This often involves removing nuance. I believe that most major news organizations make an honest effort to be factual, but there's a lot of room within the facts to be misleading.

A commentator that is an expert in the field is not constrained by an editor, and can in a few paragraphs give a more realistic and accurate assessment of the phenomenon.

When I read articles about things in which I'm not knowledgeable, I don't trust the conclusions until I see high quality comments(or tweets) that confirm the thesis of the article.
Maybe they will just prosecute people who do that?
How do you know the commenters are better informed?

Depending on my mood and whether the company is local, write a complaint to the company that leaked the address or to an appropriate government institution. In my country, a local computer security news site started a tradition of telling the offending companies that they can either apologize and donate some money to a charity (and send back the proof of payment), or you'll bring the issue up with Personal Data Protection Office, which will be more than happy to fine them.
YouTube is just not that important. It's not some type of important political fixture, it's pretty universally regarded as a cesspool with regard to political discussion and most of the content is non-political anyway.
Thank you, mate!
You are making an assumption which contradicts your conclusion. If we are assuming that (1) YouTube is effectively the public square and that (2) people will advocate for their interest peacefully, then you cannot conclude that people will forego self-moderation of content deemed extreme and immediately turn to violence.

If your YouTube video gets taken down, you can re-upload something that is better reasoned and less prone to inciting violence. If you can't do this, then you message is inherently violent, and there was never any peaceful outcome in the first place.

Either way, I'd still rather have extremists arming themselves than spending their lives convincing others to take up violence on their behalf.
I'm interested in someone's POV on Amazon's skill-forward approach - relying on third parties to create skills that are actually good, and then helping them talk to each other - compared to Google Assistant's approach, which seems to be focused on first-party capabilities as the Actions on Google ecosystem is not so developed.
