A traditional proxy server is a server and a client. A server to the downstream clients, and a client to the backend servers.

Pub-Sub depends on the specific implementation. But anything with an open network socket listening for incoming connections I'd call the server, and anything making outbound connections I'd call the client. In some implementations only the broker is the server. In others every node is a server as they're all listening for multicast discovery messages.
CORBA and the object mapping model (similar to the issues of ORMs) is what led to the dreaded ClassCastException problems that required every service to re-deploy at once which was completely broken and indicative of the architects being engineers that hardly ever touched day to day production. The transition off of syncing object representation in a monolith and God Service Schema / Registry was necessary but by that point we had moved on to SOAP and screwed that part up once again by needing to re-deploy JARs yet again constantly and out of sync and also being unable to separately deploy and route components off which led to either more ditch digging via OSGI or by going to REST APIs... or if you didn’t get here you used earlier incarnations of object and message serializations with protocol buffers. Only with these painful lessons have we as an industry learned how to actually decouple our services’ business boundaries well enough to call them decoupled, scalable services.

I don’t think the GP was implying that everyone gets severance. Generally employers are often in legal grey areas when they are letting people go; particularly in cases where there is no legal or policy violation. In these cases they often try to bully you into giving up your rights. Severance is payment for agreeing to waive your right to sue for wrongful termination.

MHRD is pretty fun. The implementation is a little janky (it's written in Java, the interface isn't accelerated, the leaderboards are a little broken), but as a game it's basically "starting with a NAND gate, build a processor from scratch, using components you've built in earlier levels". Honestly, for me, it was like a refresher of the 6 month processor design course I did in my CS degree 20 years ago.

You might find it a little simplistic given your day job, but for anyone else reading, I found it really fun.

Side note: If you like MHRD and want something a little less real world and a little more video gamey, try TIS-100, which might be the single best game on Steam.
It was decided to disallow spot pricing and preemptible VMs because it’s super variable. On the day of a CVPR submission or something, you’re not going to pay the lowest rate (spot) nor perhaps be likely to get the VMs anyway (both spot and preemptible).

Said another way, spot pricing results aren’t as reproducible in the research sense. It’s also a similar constant factor between the main providers. We felt that once you knew relative price/perf, you can choose to do whatever economic analysis you’d prefer (e.g., maybe if you don’t have any datacenter space yourself, there is no price you’d pay for hardware on-premises, or maybe you are willing to use spot or preemptible).
If we had that, we should easily be able to speak to the dead!

That’s not the “appearance” of growth, that seems the definition of growth! I also find your reference to “value revenue” somewhat confusing in the context of the usual growth/value classification of stocks.

> PV for baseload?

It's remarkable you were able to read that into what I wrote, when that wasn't at all what I wrote.

The point I was making was that intermittent renewables can screw up the market for nuclear, even if the renewables themselves do not supply baseload.

You may be under the misapprehension that if there is a base level of demand on the grid, then that base level of demand can only be supplied by baseload power sources like nuclear or coal. This is not the case. It was in the case in the past that baseload sources were the cheapest way to satisfy that demand, but there's no law of physics or economics that requires that to always be true. And increasingly it's NOT true.

What do I have?

I can only assume a residential internet connection, which typically packet filters and shapes for uploading content? It's only a guess though, you might have much better options for residential ISP than I do.

Plex can get me 4K content from my internal server, through my ethernet, to several of my devices.

Across the internet as well or when you're on your local network? My experience has been (and like with all things YMMV) infinitely better watching at home than connecting to my VPN and trying to tunnel back, but I fully expected that because the local ISP places a pretty well enforced limit on uploads from residential lines.

Comparatively though, I don't think either of our connections for streaming content from our respective home media servers holds a candle to the infrastructure of Netflix, which is why my expectations are rather measured regarding the capabilities of Plex.

That said, I love it for what it is.

UC should consider using open platforms for publishing, like MIT's PubPub[1]. In fact, so much was discussed already, current publishing model (aside of the publishers) is a bad fit for modern science. We need better collaboration, interactivity, and reproducibility.

A hallmark of the predators is that they often enter markets without doing any material acquisitions within that sector. They capture revenue organically. This has been reduced to a repeatable system.

That is what makes them so difficult to defend against. They don't behave like market incumbents and they compete with a very different set of skills than are seen in the markets they enter. They also tend to narrowly target the most profitable parts of the sector first instead of the entire value chain and expand from there, which rapidly reduces the profit incumbents could use to invest in a defense.

And in fairness, a lot of sectors are gravy trains for the incumbents. They haven't had to work hard for profits, never mind survival, in a very long time. They also spend the first few years in a state of total denial about the threat when one of these companies shows up.

I'm curious how (absolutely) efficient the Transformer training is even on the TPUs. The results from self-attention models are really impressive but unfortunately their topology makes them very difficult to implement efficiently in silicon. It often becomes purely a question of memory bandwidth, because you're not doing much math per weight on each iteration. I wonder if the speedup is from the use of on-chip HBM in the TPUs.

It’s also annoying that each example on the landing page only fades in when it is scrolled almost to the top of the window. I have enough vertical space to see two examples at once, but it always hides the bottom one to look “mysterious”. This is especially disorienting when scrolling up or down a page at a time.

Apple’s marketing pages do this type of fade-in better – the fade-in happens quickly as soon as the page is scrolled to a certain point, and after that, the faded-in item doesn’t fade out again unless you refresh the page.

In my opinion, the main problem is that the interface doesn't make it abundantly clear that you're generating and sharing an unauthenticated link to the photo.

Compare this with OneDrive/Office 365, where all the language around this functionality is explicitly about links ("Get a link", "share a link", as opposed to "share with this user"), and the UI prompts that appear are very explicit about what the link does ("Anyone with the link will be able to edit the file", "Anyone in this organization with the link will be able to view the file").

From a development standpoint web (IMO) is still predominately dominated by javascript and various JS frameworks, e.g. react/vue/angular etc. If you are proficient with javascript, learn react as there are lots of opportunities for react devs that I see. I personally prefer vue, but as a percentage of my dev time I only spend a little on front end. Vue is a growing community and more opportunities are coming up for it all the time. And Vue, IMO, is easier to pick up and become proficient at quickly than react, but from what I see in applicants and postings react still has more open opportunities.

Web backends (API's etc) are still done the same way we were doing them years ago, again, frameworks have updated but nothing that if you were capable 5 years ago that you couldn't do again with a little practice.

Basically, if you were capable prior, it won't take the average person but a few months to be pretty solid, give or take based on your prior level of competency.

Since encoding is one of the things the PLEX team gets from open-source, hardware encoding is a frustrating feature to pay-walled in their premium subscription.

It does seem like we're due for a new open-source media server.
For those confused, I suggest you go read the official doc: https://aws.amazon.com/eventbridge/faqs/ . Let me quote the important bits:

> EventBridge was formerly called Amazon CloudWatch Events. It includes new features that enable you to receive events from SaaS partners and your own applications. Existing CloudWatch Events users can access their existing default bus, rules, and events in the new EventBridge console and in the CloudWatch Events console. EventBridge uses the same CloudWatch Events API, so all of your existing CloudWatch Events API usage remains the same.

So EventBridge is CloudWatch Events. The difference is that now you can publish your own events and specify your own routing rules for them. As well as supporting 3rd party events from certain SaaS partners.

It is limited to 400 events per second, 5 targets per rule, and 100 rule per account. Consuming events is throttled at 750 per second. Events take about half a second to reach targets. Some of these limits can be increased by asking for higher limits. AWS published events, so existing CloudWatch Events don't count towards these and are unlimited.

What about SNS?

> Amazon SNS is recommended when you want to build an application that reacts to high throughput or low latency messages published by other applications or microservices (as Amazon SNS provides nearly unlimited throughput), or for applications that need very high fan-out (thousands or millions of endpoints)

> At launch, Amazon EventBridge is has limited throughput (see Service Limits) which can be increased upon request

> Amazon EventBridge is the only event-based service that integrates directly with third-party SaaS partners

> Amazon EventBridge uses a defined JSON-based structure for events, and allows you to create rules that are applied across the entire event body to select events to forward to a target

Also, the targets are not exactly same yet. For example, only SNS can publish to Mobile SMS, Email, or HTTP/S endpoints for now.

And SNS allows any type of payloads, while EventBridge forces you into JSON.

Finally, the reason this specifies serverless is because of the dynamic content based routing using configurable rules. This means you don't need to manage your own routing. So say you want to pair it with Lambda, you don't waste Lambdas starting then realizing the event isn't relevant for them, you can just setup rules for that. So it provides a serverless routing mechanism that auto-scales and is decoupled from producer and consumer. That's pretty cool!

Hope that helps!
I've been to the Eastgate Centre a couple of times and think it's an excellent building -- aside from its passive cooling, its retail space is quite people-friendly and attractive. That said, it's probably worth noting that Harare is not a particularly hot city, courtesy of its altitude (1500m/5000ft.) I wonder if this would be as effective in a truly oppressively hot place like the Horn of Africa.

I don't think that's true. TypeScript's type system is very advanced, and has most of the features you need for type-safe development if you use strict mode (which is the default for projects created with `tsc --init`). It has ADTs, null safety, exhaustiveness checking and the LSP tooling is better than any other language I've tried. The biggest feature that's missing from Scala is HKTs, and even those can be faked in TS.
The "show pony" remark in the article, I think, has a large grain of truth. There is something cringeworthy about being singled out in that manner.
