Not exactly. Microsoft is trying to expand functionality in certain places to allow things like CUDA acceleration, AF_PACKET support, and other important hardware-y things that WSL can't handle. You're right that you can run a different kernel, but Microsoft has modified theirs for WSL. For that reason, they have to release modifications.

And in the absence of correctly designed idempotent behaviors across the processing pipeline, it becomes unbelievably complex to handle all the corner cases correctly. The problem with marketing folks parroting and promoting the exactly once semantics is that any weak link in the processing chain compromises the correctness of entire system and what is worse is that the implications of subtle errors may not become evident for years to come (history is rife with legal cases and negative consequences of getting it wrong when it comes to folks' money).

In critical sectors like banking, finance and payments, designing systems in well understood and boring manner is absolutely critical while hoping for the best based on shiny brochures and marketechture is a sure recipe for disaster.

OpenVPN was too hard to setup so they decided to write their own VPN from scratch? It's cool as an academic endeavor but by actually using it, they not only tossed out all the years of security work and the audits OpenVPN has gone through but also spent a ton of time creating something that they now will have to personally maintain.

What would someone learn from this which would help them make the decision about which language would be better for helping them understand how to write software?
Agreed. Also "missing {}" is a super important "style" comment.
Yes, that was clear from the article. What I'm saying is that if they wanted to make this thing preserve race, I expect they'd need to give it an explicit notion of race.

If the suggested problem is that they trained it to one art style rather than every art style, I reject that. There is nothing wrong with a narrow artistic focus.

Furthermore, I expect that if the researchers trained one model for each 'race' using an appropriate art style for each, they would still probably get complaints about even having different models, or for the models 'failing' when used on the 'wrong' race, or when somebody with ambiguous 'racial characteristics' tried to use it.
Can you give a few examples of the problems/denials?
LLVM IR is relatively agnostic, but not so much so that you can use it to recompile for another architecture (unless you take effort to design an entire ABI to work around the platform-specific things that creep into it, as Apple did with arm64_32).

Neo4j, at least as of about a year ago, was seriously lacking in constraints and guarantees to use it as a database of record. Performance-wise, it's fundamentally built to perform well at a small set of specific graph operations, while more normal DB operations or even doing graph things plus fairly ordinary data fetching with those graphs was, necessarily, anywhere from so-so to terrible, as far as performance. Looking at how N4j stores its data is enlightening. It's also a huge memory hog (Java, plus leaning hard on cached data in memory to keep performance tolerable due to the aforementioned trade-offs).

Didn't stop N4j's marketing folks from trying to sell it as suitable for basically any purpose. Gotta get that unicorn growth. Very early-MongoDB in that regard. "No, really, it's suitable for whatever you're doing—probably the best for it, in fact! Uh, what is it you're doing, again?"

That one, at least, is best suited to assisting some other, primary DB, for a certain narrow set of tasks.

> more able to trust commitment over time

Not only are wealthier people better placed to trust (or risk) commitment, but the world map in the article is hilariously similar to a map of high-trust societies.

If someone in Sweden is more willing to wait for money than someone in Russia, does that mean they're actually higher patience? Intuitively, I think it just means they have a higher expectation of actually getting paid in a year. (And if Nicaragua is bright red, how much of that is that people aren't even sure what address they'll have in a year, so even if they trust you they know they won't get paid?)

And it's impossible to make replacement parts for the F-22 now. The US military paid Lockheed Martin to store all the custom tooling and manuals in case the production line needed to be restarted. A few years later that was attempted and the shipping containers holding all the tooling were empty!

I'm genuinely fascinated by this, but haven't been able to find more information. Was there an investigation? Did the tooling just get sent to the scrap heap? Who signed off on empty storage containers?
It depends on your branch as all things do. By 0311, I'm going to assume the Marine Corps riflemen, the equivalent of the Army's 11B.

Part of an 0311's job is kicking in doors and detaining bad guys. When there are bad guys sniping at them on the roof, they have a bad day. The UAV above them tells them "sniper on the SSW (south south west) quandrant of building 3, hit them" and then does instant BDA (battle damage assessment) to let them know the threat is neutralized or not. Those infantryman came back to the FOB that night and thanked us profusely. We helped them all come back alive.

The most boring part of the job is probably road searches. On the way out to every mission and the way back (as you're flying to the mission coordinates handed down to you by the mission commander) you just look at the main roads. For every 10 hours of looking at roads, you'll see 1 guy digging a hole and emplacing an IED or burying wire under the road. Those "side quest" missions save a lot of soldiers. Additionally, we tend to fly ahead of most convoys if the timing lines up and give them a heads up of upcoming situations. From ~7500ft above sea level, we could roughly read a license plate a mile away. We gave them situational awareness on neighborhoods to go out of their way and just avoid. Things like that.

For every 100 hours of relatively mundane stuff, you get a few really special missions. One of those special missions was when a Kiowa scout helicopter took an RPG to the tail rotor and crashed in Tal'Afar. Most missions I was the AVO (Aerial Vehicle Operator aka pilot), but this was one of the few where I was the MPO (Mission Payload Operator aka camera dude). We saw this as a literal clone of the most infamous Operation Gothic Serpent (Blackhawk down) and all said, "Not on our watch!". And in the end, they made our video a lot less clear and put some parts of it in a Military Channel Special: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0845577/

TL;DNR: UAV Operator is nothing at all like an 0311, but they love us because we do a dang good job of saving their lives. In return, they watch our backs.

You ignored the substance of my point: a dishwasher is an employee of a licenced/regulated business operator, who is answerable to a regulatory regime. The state has a regulatory handle on the dishwasher already, and doesn't need to licence them or force them to take training to ensure minimal standards. Cosmetologists are usually independent contractors and are the responsible party, equivalent in legal terms to the restaurant owner/operator, not the dishwasher.

> Are we, as a society, investing in the right things?

This kind of question can be tricky. It biases the answer. The answer is usually "No, but it's hard to agree about what the right things are."

But in a lot of cases, how is as important as how much.. and related. Are we doing this the right way? Are the right people making the right decisions?

A hospital or an industry is also a culture, and they often do things for cultural reasons.

The "fast-growing software companies" have a culture of nice offices. The economic rationale is that it's cheap, helps recruit, and possibly adds to moral or productivity or somesuch.

Hospitals have a utilitarian culture, austere at times. Older culture, more complicated reasons. A lot of the difference (since we're talking about appearances) is down to what they want to project and to whom.
In utility based sense, GDP is not a measure because one dollar has zero utility if you cannot spend it on something you need.

Even $100k can have zero utility if you need cancer treatment that is more expensive than this.

This is because service costs are usually not negotiable, and especially not privately if you have zero power.

Deriving utility from money directly is an exercise in futility.

In comparison, items can be used for the intended purpose, meaning they have utility for that and related purposes.

Money has unknown utility depending on prices and other various factors.

Without specifying purpose and other constraints you cannot actually talk about utility of any asset.

PPP adjusted GDP is better, because it relates money value to a certain basket of goods which have utility for certain common life purposes.
However, the basket typically skips critical pieces like shelter (housing), clothing or indeed weighted averages of medical care.
(Medical care is especially tricky because it is very heavy tailed in cost. Low probability events have huge costs, which means in normal average they're hidden. What is needed is the likelihood of a person hitting any of the expensive conditions, which can be had by binning expensive ones together.)

Not to mention if a service is paid by taxes, PPP essentially should count the cost by using the tax value split among all the free services. If it is gated conditionally, then likelihood of that condition has to be counted in. (E.g. free for people making $x or less.)
I find it interesting that both the words independent and activist had to be brought out to qualify the wonderful journalism from Michael Krieger. Wasn't there a time when it was somewhat assumed that journalists were both independent and activists to some extent?

> to anybody stupid enough to buy them

You mean many of the elite militaries on the planet? Israel for example is not known for buying non-working trash as a primary to defend its skies with. Over time the majority of the best militaries will all fly the F35.

Turkey must be a joke according to your premise, that's why they're so eager to get their hands on the F35. No, in fact Turkey has a top ~20 military in capability.

"Australia, Canada, Denmark, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Turkey and the United Kingdom currently are in formal partnership with the United States on the F-35 program. Israel, Japan and South Korea have made orders through the foreign military sales process. Belgium also recently signed on to purchase platforms." [1]

The F35 is the second best fighter that can be purchased, behind the F22. Its technology platform is superior to the F22 and far beyond anything anyone else has. Russia can't get their 5th gen planes to operate properly or get them into volume production (despite numerous failed declarations of such, and 20 years of development). China hasn't demonstrated that capability yet either. They're both two decades behind the US in 5th gen planes. The other European powers aren't even on the map when it comes to producing domestic 5th gen, they can't step up to that level at all.

That is called journalism, not activism. Activist journalist are a stain on the industry.
Excellent question, and it is standard operating procedure. We had ~100m cables for our actual dishes that we used to control the Shadow 200 and always kept them far away from where we were flying if at all feasible. Most nations do this, however some missiles are set to go towards the rf and then switch to visual identification of targets to say blow up the control station.
I believe it's noticed in Asia as well or at the very least Thailand. For example there's much less European tourists travelling to places like Phuket [0] and Pattaya [1] lately. Of course the strong Thai Baht (or the weak Euro) also plays a role in this.

Since it's "people", not "employees", it may well be about travel and time off for some. For self-employeed sub-contractors (i.e. the "gig economy"), time off means time not paid.
I don’t this is the type of vacation the article was talking about.

I can see that going either way, depending on how the question is posed. Fewer 16-year olds may be able to afford a vacation paid from their own income, compared to the population mean.

But sponsored through parents/relatives, more 16-year olds than the population mean may be able to take a vacation, given your vacation at 16 years old is likely to be cheap, relative to an older person's vacation.
When I was a teen (late 1990's) there was a website geared around "kits" for converting small American trucks into all electric. Think Ford Ranger and Chevy S10. I think the "kit" was around $5000. You basically pulled the motor, and installed custom built motor mounts to hold the new large electric motor. There was a custom built adapter that allowed the motor to bolt up to the transmission. Only manual transmissions were supported and the instructions just said to "leave it in 4th gear". Then there was the electronics and wiring for the power and charging circuits. You had to source your own batteries though.

I really wanted to buy the kit but to get any kind of actual range you basically had to fill the bed of the truck up with lead acid batteries. I figured the inefficiency of having to carry around a truck bed full of lead would never catch on and hence electric vehicles would never be a thing so I gave up on the idea...
The ideal modern SEAD combo is the F22 flying ahead to designate targets and using the F35 as the "gun truck" to launch missiles at targets the F22 sends it.

I pay 10K in total between drugs, premiums, and all other medical expenses of which about 8600 is premiums.

A plan as good in on the market in my state would have cost 1300. To be clear 1 take an inhaler which retails for $400 for asthma and my wife has an expensive chronic illness which would cost 10s of thousands to treat out of pocket. Buying a cheap plan would be disadvantageous as I can figure on trivially paying the deductible out of pocket in the first couple of months. High deductible or high copay plans just mean paying less in payroll deductions and more out of pocket.

For 2018 it was a lot less AFTER I argued for 4 months about the tax credit that initially wasn't included in the price and nobody could figure out how to fix.

This is basically a tax credit paid in installments to your medical insurance provider and is supposed to be calculated based on your expected income for the year. If in fact you make too much they can turn around and reevaluate how much they helped you and demand some of that money back. For instance they total help I received in 2018 to buy a silver plan was I think on the order of 11 or 12k this turned out to be too much by about 1k.

If as a poor person you don't actually HAVE that money to pay back they can just not offer this and then your choice is to pay $1300 for the same plan you were paying $300 for last year or pay for your employers plan.

Did you assume I was just too stupid to sign up for the ACA plan? Health care in America is a joke for the poor.
Damn good analogy! And I never worked for Jeff directly neither, just received some of his "?" mails.

EDIT: It's true that some people really believe and live the LPs on a daily basis. My first biss was one of them, Amazonian from basically day one in Germany. He retired earlier this year. Since I assume he never sold one single share he received (frugality anyone?) that really means retirement now. Pitty that he left, so. After I did, but still.
