I've said this elsewhere in the thread, but Cloud NAT is kind of expensive. 4.5¢ per GB increases egress costs by 37.5% (normally 12¢ per GB) plus it applies to ingress as well, which is usually free.

Sure it doesn't apply to inbound traffic through load balancers, but if you transfer a lot of data to/from external APIs (i.e. connections by the instance) that could seriously add up.

Based on my company's usage, it will almost certainly be cheaper for us to just pay the $2.92/instance/month to keep using public V4 addresses on our GKE nodes.
> Would you expect the union to oppose such automation?

Yes. Though the automation as described hurts no workers it kills the union itself.
If clang can see the definition of `constFunc` and deduce that its parameters are `noescape`, then I think it can avoid reloading `x`.

A recent optimization in clang (not sure if it's in clang-9 or clang-10) will remove memsets to variables declared const, which usually come from assigning through a pointer that's had const (of the pointed to type) casted away. The MIPS Linux kernel won't boot when built with clang due to the above (I sent a patch 2 weeks ago)
US GDP is larger than EU GDP.
Yes, a preference system similar to the Canadian one, which has a points system based on a variety of factors. Especially factoring in the fields with the most need and also education level (or equivalent experience that is actually verified). That is a more clearer approach than a lottery based one. This is what I would suggest if I was American.

Speaking as a non-American:

I have issues with the intent too, because I am not happy about the fact that this is a country developed by immigrants, yet there is anti-immigrant sentiment. People have to 'prove' themselves to get in, and even there's no guarantee of success there with clear goalposts, and only extra-ordinary ability people (O-1 visa) can get in without much headache. A bit like locking the door behind you IMO.

I want to say that I understand the problems unrestricted immigration will place on the country. However, there is a position that will allow many more immigrants than current immigrant visa system allows for, and we are not close to that.

I believe the reason is that people aren't comfortable possibly having their salaries drop by a small percent. The hypocrisy is what really gets to me though. America is touted as a free market economy, especially by the Republicans who fight for less government intervention in business, yet they're the ones advocating for tighter immigration controls which is the opposite of free market.

Apologies if this seems like a rant. You might not get what I'm trying to convey because you probably not know the feeling of being dealt the shitty hand of being born in a place that isn't a first world country.
Thanks, books added to my reading list.
A related anecdote: I lived in very small rural village in Nebraska for about 1.5 years . I worked at a small, sleepy, company that made radio broadcast software. I lived across the street from my office parking lot. The supermarket, gas station, library, and Post Office were all within 3-6 blocks.

Although some opportunities weren't available. The ability to spend essentially 0% of my time commuting for any errands made my life very simple and enjoyable.

I love in Boston now and work for a startup, so there's been quite a stark contrast between my lifestyle in the past year. Luckily I work completely remote now because I told myself then, I would never work or live anywhere that requires me to spend a dozen hours a week driving and doing errand.
Without a more concrete example, it's difficult to suggest what the better fix would be.

Code smell doesn't mean you should never do it, just that often there's a better way.
ECS and DOTS aren't quite ready for prime time by Unity's own standards so there aren't many games actually shipping using ECS or DOTs because the API isn't stable.
An FPGA would make it much more generic a product so you can sell to more markets. But you would loose a factor 200 (a factor 1000 with traditional FPGA design) to make transistors reconfigurable.

If you leave the wafer intact, you get 70,000 mm2. Cerebras cut off almost half of the wafer.

At 7nm you would get 2.7 trillon transistors with 300mm wafers, more with 450 mm wafers. You disable those reticle-sized areas with impurities or damage at runtime.

You can cool it with immersive liquid cooling.
Instead of wire bonding you can stack chips on top or use free space optics [1].

It's a beautiful article. Most Parsi food joints in Mumbai are in the old colonial area called "Fort". It is an area that you can walk around unlike most of Mumbai.

Incidentally it is also India's financial capital with the main offices of the Reserve Bank of India in that area.

If you are ever in Mumbai, I strongly recommend walking around in Fort and taking in the sights and just eating your way through the place.
meh, i disagree. If volunteers can build out networks like these which work pretty well, then I gather paid IT folks can as well. Since it has pretty low cost to start with, it could be used as a backup system until reliability issues have been worked out, and then used as primary with a fallback to the existing functional but painfully slow service they have now. Good monitoring could go a long way to making it viable. The extra money saved could then be used to pay for technology that does contribute to the companies core competency.

like you said, without details, i think the current systems admin could make this decision better than either of us arm chairing quarterbacking it. I certainly think it's viable though, when compared to operating under the poor dsl solution they currently have.

This metric is meaningless when a company is expanding as fast as WeWork is and investing heavily in setting up new spaces.

The real metric that matters is average payback period per property as a factor of the total rent liability.

The risk is WeWork's average payback period is never or they don't have enough cash to reach their payback period.
It gets converted into a state machine.

|| {
yield 2;
yield 3;
yield 5;
}

will get converted to a struct that implements the Generator trait[1] with a resume method something like

fn resume(self: Pin<&mut Self>) -> GeneratorState<i32, ()> {
match self.next_state {
0 => {
self.next_state = 1;
Yielded(2)
},
1 => {
self.next_state = 2;
Yielded(3)
},
2 => {
self.next_state = 3;
Yielded(5)
},
_ => Complete(())
}
}

Local variables become fields in the struct and if you have more complex control flow, the state could end up jumping around instead of just increasing by one each time. It's nothing that you couldn't write by hand, but it would be very tedious to do so.

>First, the claim that maternal fluoride exposure is associated with a decrease in IQ of children is false. This finding was non-significant (but not reported in the abstract). They did observe a decrease for male children and a slight increase in IQ (but non-significant) for girls. This is an example of subgroup analysis – which is frowned upon in these kinds of studies because it is nearly always possible to identify some subgroup which shows an effect if the data are noisy. Here the data are very noisy. A further issue is that the estimate of the decrease in IQ for male offspring is unfeasibility large – at 4-5 IQ points. This level of average deficit would be readily detectable in previous studies and is likely a reflection of bias or very noisy data (the interval estimate here is very wide). As high fluoride areas are not randomly assigned there are also countless uncontrolled confounders. While they did correct for a limited set of covariates, the overall effect was non-significant with and without covariates. In summary it is not correct to imply that the data here show evidence of a link between maternal fluoride exposure and IQ. The average change in IQ is not statistically significant.
What about calls to kill all jews, very reasonably and eloquently stated, still welcome?

How about calls to have sex with children, still ok with you?

What about support and calls for mass shootings, executions and genocide?

What happens when supports for these views grow by virtue of them being in people's faces a lot?

Plenty of internet communities have been hijacked by these mentalities, usually in some misguided idea about free speech.

Giving disgusting bullshit a platform almost axiomatically elevates it, legitimizes it and creates support for it, pretending things are just a marketplace of ideas, and all we have to do is "be civil" is an almost total abdication of responsibility.

Edit: how about the people down voting this answer if conversations, conducted civilly and in good faith, should be allowed about topics like this, if you are going to have a stance that nothing should barred, you better be able to think about and discuss what about the worst of the worst, not live in some fantasy land where people don't seriously believe some truly horrific things.
> The losses for each WeWork member — about $5,200 per customer — are about 28 times what Uber loses per active rider.

Why do so many articles compare WeWork and Uber per-customer losses? It's absurd on the face of it.

Per customer profit/loss comparisons only make sense when per-customer revenues (or at least lifetime value) are similar. A WeWork customer might be renting a small office for a year and worth >$25,000 in annual revenue. An uber customer might be worth maybe 1% that.

It would be better to compare WeWork per-customer revenues to companies like Regus or ServeCorp with whom they are actually competing.

One thing will be trying to reach out to hiring managers and internal recruiters directly instead of working with third-party recruiters. Third-party recruiters try to maximize their referral fee by matching your experience to the job description exactly; hiring managers and internal recruiters get quite a bit more leeway. Is there a coding bootcamp nearby that you could teach or TA? It's an awesome way to make easy connections with local employers; growing your network is a long term investment, but if in two years it can get you a better job it is worth it.

I'm also self taught and started with a terrible job cycle that I'm still working out of. I talk to recruiters all of the time, and I also refer friends to them and it gets me bonus considerations. Recently I called one up and had a very frank conversation on my career goals; she didn't have a job for me but gave me some very nice pointers (basically how to highlight things in my resume in a way that'll stand out to the five second scan of a recruiter). Recruiters are people and you can filter the good ones, many are on LinkedIn.

I'm very glad you have raised this point. This concept of productivity is quite new. Unfortunately, it has not remained flexible enough to offer the same kind of meaning today, that it did for workers at it's inception.

Fortunately, many engineers, among others in technology-centric roles, have co-opted this definition to mean their intellectual output.

Depending on whether or not an individual's intellectual currency is manifested via productive output, this hyper-productivity needn't be unhealthy in itself.

It is when this desire overtakes those who don't derive value from the "hobby" of productivity that it becomes dangerous.

People fetishize the formula but the beautiful idea is that multiplication/exponentiation can be expanded in such a way that it describes oscillatory relations. This is how eg. eigenvalues get to play a role in models of harmonic resonance. Or how AC impedance naturally generalizes DC resistance.

I've been quoting C99 and my answers should be considered in that context. However, to say C99 does not "consider threading at all" is to neglect that the standards body document above explicitly mentions the thread of execution... in the quote that I stated.

You seem to not be reading what I'm saying and also to be arguing with things I never asserted. e.g.

> Volatile is not sufficient to make double-checked locking safe.

OK, but I didn't say volatile makes double-checked locking safe... I said that the compiler's ability to reorder non-qualified variable accesses is "a big part of why" double-checked locking is an antipattern. My statement:

> Actually, you promise not to change things from another thread..., let alone a const! The compiler loads things into registers and has no way to know if memory in a passed reference changes underneath the hood... It can freely make optimizations that lead to incorrect computation, infinite loops, segmentation faults if this is not obeyed. If you've ever head about how "double check locking" is an antipattern, this is a big part of why.
> Back to creating new Google accounts every year to get the year of credits...

I was tasked with calculating OAS durations on callable agency bonds with the Bloomberg API in Perl in the 90's. Basically I'd take the price and use the API to get the OAS, then bump the OAS up and down a basis point, calculate price up and price down and get the difference.

The problem was sporadically I'd get a price back that was out of line. It would match to the 5th or 6th decimal, but then would diverge. I could make the same call 10 times in a row and the price would be identical 8 times, but 2 others it would be different in the 5th or 6th decimals. Since I was taking the difference of two prices which were relatively close otherwise, this would wreck havoc with my results.

Bloomberg support was always quick with a response, but often the first level support had no idea what they were talking about. For two weeks they kept insisting that because the yield curve I was pricing with was live, what I was seeing was because of market moves. Finally I got to someone who was on the implementation team for that bit of code, and he explained that they had both Data General and Perkin Elmer (Interdata) machines supporting that function, and the answers depended on which architecture handled the response.

I agree.

Let's not silence ourselves.
Sorry. Didn't mean to be coy. But, to make the math easier, imagine a full timer 25 days of vacation per year = five weeks. Great.

Now let's say that person goes down to 80% time, working four days a week. Now they only earn 25 days * 80% = 20 days of vacation per year. But this person only works four days a week. So to spend a full week away only requires using up four vacation days. (20 days of vacation) / (4 days/week) = five weeks. Great.
IMO the CCP gets its legitimacy to govern from its performance in some key areas: economic development and stability/security. That plays to the party's strengths, so the state-controlled media has actively promoted the view that these factors are the most important. Note how issues like the environment and health care were very much put on the back burner until public awareness and criticism reached a critical threshold, after which the party acknowledged the issues. So it's no surprise that the CCP enjoys a broad level of support on the mainland—it has performed well in the key areas it has convinced people matters most.

In a liberal democracy, on the other hand, people expect much more responsiveness to their concerns. And people tend to value freedom of expression and freedom from suppression. Those values are treasured in Hong Kong.

So no wonder mainlanders and HKers have different outlooks on this issue.
