People hire people that they can get along with. This is easy to overlook.

If truth be told, just statistically, non-Indian non-white minority women are the hardest to get along with in a workplace. They routinely make false complaints. I say this after more than a decade of workplace experience. If there is one of them in the team, I wouldn't join the team.

Some excerpts on the PM's voting record on environmental issues:

> Generally voted against measures to prevent climate change

> Generally voted for lower taxes on fuel for motor vehicles

> Generally voted against greater regulation of hydraulic fracturing (fracking) to extract shale gas

> Has never voted on financial incentives for low carbon emission electricity generation methods

This is not about male/female.
Do you have experience doing async ffi to other runtimes from Rust? Such as passing down futures from Rust to JavaScript or Java so you can use them from their context. I'd love to read a blog post about that subject...
I had a similar idea to parody the irritating practices of some news sites, where they have five different headings/footers, some with auto-playing video (I'm looking at you independent.co.uk), others with cookie warnings which take 30s to close (AFAIK theverge does this), some that are static and don't move when you scroll, others that disappear in arbitrary random ways when you scroll and reappear when you move the page just a little bit.

I've seen websites that show so many that the news article is only visible through a tiny 10% sized crack. So frustrating.
I was pondering a few weeks back about the prospects of using ML/AI to find new ways to factor primes and if their is any sequence in primes and how to calculate them in a way that you input N and it will produce the Nth prime.

That would be something.
When you visit a serious web site, like t-online.de or spiegel.de, with an up-to-date iPad and you're getting popups with porn or gambling offers that cannot be closed (they can, but reopen instantly), when you cannot use the back button anymore, and the only way to regain control of your browser is to either reboot the iPad (that's what many normal people do) or you force-close Safari... then you've caught malware from a big ad network that t-online.de or spiegel.de use.

Happened regularly about a year or two ago, certainly more often than every month, haven't seen it since, though.

Maybe you should contemplate the possibility that you're wrong.
Have you been to a small town in rural America?! Walmart In many communities is the town square and effectively the only retailer other than maybe a dollar store.
The first I saw of functionality like this was editing the titles of images on Flickr.

I still remember the amazement I felt when I could click on the text, give it a new name, save, and all without having to load a single form.
I have never seen anyone regret not spending more time in office instead. I'll take my chances with ungrateful kids than having missed the chance of spending more time with them.
They're infinitely more customizable, by not being (as) mass-produced, for one. I prefer keyswitches that have a lower weight and more travel than membrane switches, but if you legitimately prefer low-travel switches, those certainly exist in the mechanical realm too.

The RSI point is significantly more controversial. Practically any type of laptop keyboard or non-split desktop keyboard puts your arms and wrists at unnatural angles and encourages poor posture. I'm not going to argue that my non-split mechanical keyboard is any better for my health than a membrane keyboard, but mechanical keyboards give you enough customization that you can choose between hundreds of split designs or build your own to suit your specific tastes.

Besides, I've noticed that mechanical keyboard users rarely use the entire length of their switch travel; the entire point of tactile or clicky switches is to be able to actuate them without bottoming out. Typing on a MacBook keyboard (even the nicer scissor-switch kinds) feels almost like typing on a glass screen because you're forced to have each keystroke bottom out on the hard surface underneath.
This is fantastic news. The best possible way to get new platforms is to kick technically competent hackers out of existing ones. We should encourage other platforms to deplatform vulnerability researchers too.
Those stats are from StatCounter. Literally the second sentence in their FAQ:

> Our tracking code is installed on more than 2 million sites globally.

Having a low number there is a feature.
The heat comes from the reliability issues.
I think that allows library authors to implement against the trait, but then the user of that library can choose which concrete implementation they want to use in their app, so they don't have to have multiple and convert between them.
Probably because it happened at where the connector joined.

I, too, miss magsafe. I, too, believe that the newer USB-C cables are better engineered, and like the fact that I can replace the cable separately from the adapter if there's ever a problem with it.

> If they release a new MacBook Air this year I’ll definitely feel a bit betrayed.

With one exception, they've released a new MBA literally every year from 2008 to 2018. At this point it would be a betrayal not to release an update this year.
Am I the only person who likes the butterfly keyboard? I like the feel of the low travel and the clickiness, whenever I use an old style MacBook the keys feel mushy.

I have had reliability problems though. Mostly I’ve had keys that don’t respond, but have always been able to fix those with compressed air. But once I had a sticky key that popped every other time I pressed it, that required a free Apple repair.

Thank you, we've heard that a couple of times now!

Versus tatiyants we think the main advantages are if you have a lot of operations in a query plan, or if you need some help working out what to do to speed it up.

If you come across either of those, it'd be great to hear what you think.

People don't want chatbots - businesses want(ed) them because they offer(ed) the promise of much cheaper support. Of course that's predicated on them working at all, which in practice they don't, obviously. Think that message has filtered through enough now that the hype surge that was in full swing a couple of years ago seems to have petered out again.

Guys, people won’t give up eating meat unless you give them alternatives that are as good or better. The Impossible Burger might do more to save the world than all journalists put together.

Now we need alternatives to non-biodegradable plastic, and fossil fuels. We have them! We could have had them much earlier if goverment got involved. Other kinds of plastic. Electric cars.

We need alternatives to the lazy pesticides we use. We are all for the short win. Our culture is likened to instant gratification children, and we are borrowing on a credit card that our children and grandchildren will be stuck with. The bill always comes due!

It is a jekyll blog, and there are many authors, which is really what makes the copyright situation hard. I am working on contacting everyone to clarify their intention, as it was within MS rights to shut the site down, and it's within any author's rights to ask that their work not be republished, and to my knowledge nobody collected copyright releases at any point, so there is no person who can simply authorize it for everyone.

All of the few Deis team members that I've contacted so far, though, have been very receptive to having their work re-published and excited to hear about Team Hephy, which was created to continue some of the work that had to be left behind by Deis, so that they could better follow the demand.

I want to do it in a way that is thoughtful and fair. It's also hard to justify reposting everything when I don't have a plan to balance it with an equal amount of good quality, new content as well. Maybe I need to bite the bullet and take my SEO points, it will almost certainly drive more traffic to our site.

Do you have an "in" at Archive.org, or would you re-host them somewhere else? I'm more worried that when I repost them, they are still not going to be easy to find, and if they weren't in the history of deis.com, that sure won't make it any easier.

I realized I was definitely going to miss the content when I found this post[1] that was just what I was looking for, about the options for schedulers and what it means to have a monolithic scheduler, back when they were considering whether to rewrite Deis on Kubernetes (they did, it became known as Workflow). It came from the original Deis blog.

I don't know if it looks out of place on the new blog, or if it will make sense to grow this one post at a time, I think I don't like this blog, it was just thrown together one day when I said "we need a place to put a release announcement." I like the material style better than anything I myself could come up with alone, but honestly that's hardly a shining endorsement. Could be much better.

>"Gave up" in this case consists of a certain party's legislative membership fleeing to Idaho to deny quorum.

Umm... no. They returned in time to continue the session. It didn't pass because there weren't enough Democrats who supported the bill.

>The move seemingly ended a fight that has strained relationships in the statehouse since the first days of the session. HB 2020 would create an overall cap on Oregon’s greenhouse gas emissions and would charge companies for their pollution.

>But the bill saw backlash from industries that felt added costs would put them at a competitive disadvantage, and from citizens who chafed at an expected increase in gas and energy costs. Ultimately the pushback was apparently enough to convince three Democratic senators to oppose the bill, meaning it would likely not have enough votes to pass.

How many of those billion miles were logged in urban driving?
I just last week bought a pristine, maxed-out 2015 MacBook Pro. Yet I think you're wrong about most of this.

* I hate magsafe. I've owned a dozen of these and almost all of them have come apart just behind the magsafe connector. Expensive, proprietary, and fragile. I would much much rather have USB-C than shell out $90 every two years.

* USB-C is great. A bunch of different ports means carrying a bunch of different cables, so it doesn't matter what's on the computer-side. USB-C to microusb is no different than the USB-A to microusb. Actually it's better; the tiny dongles give you options without carrying a multitude of cables.

* The touchbar is meh. I would probably enjoy having dedicated Step In/Step Over/Step Out buttons when debugging, but I'm not willing to pay $300 for that.

The real problems with the new machines, which pushed me into buying a 2015 model, are:

* The new keyboard. The ergonomics are fine, but I am hard on keyboards and nevertheless expect 5+ years of duty (my last machine was bought new in 2013, and just wasn't cutting it with 8G of RAM). I can't have an unreliable and expensive keyboard.

* The price. A reasonably spec'd MBP is now pushing $3k. It's just too much! The specs of a modern maxed-out MBP are nearly identical to the 2015 model I just bought. Critically, I can't get more than 16G of RAM in a 13" form factor (and I'd really rather have something smaller). I bought a functionally equivalent machine and paid less than a third of what a new one costs.

I don't want a sexy svelte fragile expensive luxury status symbol. I want a rugged capital good that will reliably allow me to work for the next half-decade.
R-Linux – Data Recovery and File Undelete for Linux Files
You're 100% right - and it's just semantics.

It's just that I feel the R-word carries so much more weight on how we're judging something. When I hear people talk down on other people like that I have the same physical reaction of unease in my stomach that I have with the classic "brown people are bad" American racism that I was taught to fight.
Aha, thank you - good to know.

Had a quick google and yay - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Magnetic-Compatible-MacBook-Reversi... - though that was one of the first links that jumped out, nice picture of what it is, but if your getting one, do look around more as probably better or cheaper options.
Do you have a blog or mailing list I could follow? Our family would be interested in following along and doing some similar activities.
But most of these are non-traditional low-grain or no grain feeds. Why would you advocate something even more radical in the same direction as a solution? If removing grain is correlated then BARF would not be the answer. Not that we know grain is the issue even, but why do you think BARF solves the problem in the FDA report?
> The dongles and USB-C are a mess. The 2-meters-at-most charging cables are a downgrade which will mean shorter battery life due to lesser plugging in. The lack of Magsafe is a downgrade, they removed a feature. The lack of any port variety which my 2013 Macbook Air did exceedingly well is a major downgrade. Consumers must carry a variety of dongles because the laptops don't offer a variety of ports.

Must we? My USB-C external hard drive and USB-C phone disagree with you. As does my USB-C magnetic adapter and my USB-C monitor. No dongles here.

USB-C is the future (for USB), someone has to force the change.
> Droplets or puddles tend to freeze from the propagation of a single freeze front. In contrast, videographers have shown that as soap bubbles freeze, a plethora of growing ice crystals can swirl around in a beautiful effect visually reminiscent of a snow globe. However, the underlying physics of how bubbles freeze has not been studied. Here, we characterize the physics of soap bubbles freezing on an icy substrate and reveal two distinct modes of freezing. The first mode, occurring for isothermally supercooled bubbles, generates a strong Marangoni flow that entrains ice crystals to produce the aforementioned snow globe effect. The second mode occurs when using a cold stage in a warm ambient, resulting in a bottom-up freeze front that eventually halts due to poor conduction along the bubble. Blending experiments, scaling analysis, and numerical methods, the dynamics of the freeze fronts and Marangoni flows are characterized
You can monetize from the start, and get the full cut. If the monetization doesn't work out, you can pull the plug before the costs occur. You could probably even code it so that you never serve more than you made in income. You might also say you don't get to 50k views by multiplication, but by addition. I mean, if your videos are so popular that you get 50k hits in the first minute of uploading one, your audience will between them find a way to finance you.

> To make the excercise more interesting now multiply whatever result you got by the number of videos your platform is supposed to host.

Multiply income by the same amount though.

> Also assume that some users will want 4K.

I wouldn't assume that for all types of content anyway, and certainly not for all connections. In this case, that some users don't get what they want doesn't matter to those who don't want it. Whereas YT censoring things can turn off even people who aren't interested in the censored content per se, on principle, I doubt you'll find that with "not supporting 4k, because you only got started self-hosting and making ends meet". People sometimes are supportive of people in ways they aren't of companies.
Honest question: why? Seems like there is a nice story behind this claim.
I was going for rhetorical effect, but your question is a fair one. I wish we asked it of ourselves more often and in earnest.

In my considered opinion, yes, cars are an insane method of mass transport† which have killed and maimed more people than war. I call our traffic systems the "Mayhem Lottery".

> Road traffic accidents are the largest cause of injury-related deaths worldwide.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Car#Safety

We did it to ourselves, deliberately:

> The very word jaywalk is an interesting—and not historically neutral—one. Originally an insult against bumptious “jays” from the country who ineptly gamboled on city sidewalks, it was taken up by a coalition of pro-automobile interests in the 1920s, notes historian Peter D. Norton in his book Fighting Traffic. “Before the American city could be physically reconstructed to accommodate automobiles, its streets had to be socially reconstructed as places where cars belong,” he writes. “Until then, streets were regarded as public spaces, where practices that endangered or obstructed others (including pedestrians) were disreputable. Motorists’ claim to street space was therefore fragile, subject to restrictions that threatened to negate the advantages of car ownership.” And so, where newspapers like the New York Times once condemned the “slaughter of pedestrians” by cars and defended the right to midblock crossings—and where cities like Cincinnati weighed imposing speed “governors” for cars—after a few decades, the focus of attention had shifted from marauding motorists onto the reckless “jaywalker.”

https://slate.com/human-interest/2009/11/a-defense-of-jaywal...

So yeah, it doesn't make sense to let people pilot massive (often a ton or more) powerful (as a team of N horses) deadly machines down every freakin street (and can we talk about the paving of the world?) just to get from point A to point B at M mph. Not in a world that includes bikes and buses!

Here's the sick punchline: for all that death and mayhem, and all the other costs and externalities of car transport, you don't gain anything, you just break even.

In "Energy and Civilization A History" by Vaclav Smil he points out that, once you factor in all the time spent working to pay for the car you're doing no better than if you just walked everywhere. Cars literally are no better than walking, economically.

(†Although I really like the machines themselves.)
I have a mid 2013 Air as well (and I recently replaced the battery for $100, it’s great and you should too), but I’d attribute the long life to simply the SSD and the software rather than anything else.
Ads, but they mimic the look of regular results
It’s pretty suggestive that Ive leaving was precipitated by this. He may have been forcing the keyboard against criticism. I’m sure he had huge clout from his big successes over the years. Good riddance, I say. I hope they make a dramatic back step on their laptops.
yes but net margin is what really matters.
I'm more optimistic. WWII was the last attempt to capture the wealth of developed nations by invading them. These days such a strategy is a complete non-starter because no developed nation can withstand an invasion.

Think of it like this: Silicon Valley is probably one of the richest bits of America. So imagine that some dictator decides to invade it, and that the US military try to stop him but fail in some improbable way. So this dictator now controls a bunch of ruins with no electricity containing broken computers. His troops are herding the geeks who used to program those computers into internment camps. How does this make him any richer than he was before?

If you conquer a third-world country then you can exploit its raw resources: a semi-literate population, farmland on which they can grow food, and maybe minerals they can dig out of the ground. That was essentially the thinking behind the Heartland Theory (see link). But it just won't work any more. These days the real wealth comes from brainpower, but you can't capture that wealth by pointing a gun at someone.

>The company attributed that to a manufacturing defect, affecting a small number of phones, which it soon fixed. But customers online continued reporting problems, forum comments show.

I wish corporations would stop using the “only affects a small number” excuse. I understand the motivation behind that but feels really bad when you’re affected and you can obviously see it’s not a small number.
Almost as infuriating as trying to cancel your Amazon Prime subscription.
The SL-1 Nuclear Reactor Accident
Speaking of Spy vs Spy, I have always wanted a modern game with the same mechanics as the Commodore 64 trilogy; players running around setting up comic traps against each other. Would make for some great couch multiplayer, especially on the Nintendo Switch!

There is no good Google alternative, but DuckDuckGo I've resorted to using when Google censors a search result.
You can get USB-C monitors, external hard drives, most modern phones connect via USB-C. What else do you need? Bluetooth fills in the gaps for things like external keyboards and mice and most modern printers can be connected to via wifi.

I appreciate my needs/requirements are not everyones but USB-C isn't exactly elusive these days.
I totally agree about bottoming out. It's more about the amount of force needed to trigger the switch, which on a capactive touch would be 0. I use o-rings too to decrease the length of the throw and to make bottoming out quieter and less impactful if it happens on accident. Mechanical keyboards just don't agree with my hands and wrists sadly.
Exactly. USB C is so much better. Charging on either side and only replacing the cable and not the whole adapter if there is a connection issue.
For a counterpoint, it loads essentially instantly (less that 1s) on my machine, and includes an easy-to-find and semi-well-functioning in-store only filter, which autosuggests my local stores and remembers my choice. It does need to filter out "out-of-stock" items, which they've made a specific choice not to do, and has nothing to do with permormance/design/ui.
