Beside technical considerations, the main point of Docker, to me, is its diffusion. Just like the actual physical containers it gets inspiration from, you can find Docker almost everywhere. It has become a Lingua Franca for devops, even in enterprise environments, and it will be very difficult to get rid of it.

Swift spends 76% of the time incrementing/decrementing reference counts; ARC is just very bad at pushing tens of millions of objects through it every second.

There's some more evlauation for Swift here: https://github.com/ixy-languages/ixy.swift/tree/master/perfo...

It's just a coincidence that JavaScript and Swift end up with almost the same performance; there is nothing similar between these two runtimes and implementations.

One of my first senior engineering roles was making what was at first a CRUD app to support user studies and data collection. At some point the project blew up, and requirements grew many fold in complexity. My CS background let me view the problem space from a broader perspective, and I ended up building what was essentially a spreadsheet based DSL so that user study designers could define what were, under the hood, state machines that covered pretty much any scenario they could come up with.

The workload increased by 50x, but the system I built only needed a couple engineers to maintain and add features to.

I hate to sound cocky, but I think any engineer without a formal CS background would have attempted to solve each case on an ad hoc basis, either greatly delaying the project at best, or fucking it up irremediably at worst.

I have many examples like that.

Perhaps in all of the examples you cited, you’ve inadvertently cost the company 10 times the time or the money that a more methodical engineer with a theoretical background would have. You don’t know what you don’t know, and that’s the difference between an engineer and a technician (a distinction that the US doesn’t tend to make, but some other countries do).
Because the crucial thing about lootboxes is that in-game currency obfuscates the actual value of your purchase. You know when you buy a booster pack how much that booster pack is worth in real life money; you don't when you're buying lootboxes. When I was a kid and bought booster packs I knew how much they were worth because I also knew the value of each card and how much they compared to other physical stuff I could buy (candy).
I think the fact that it will run mainline amd64 Linux [0] and is dirt cheap will make people overlook that.

Benchmarks are imperfect, but it seems to be in the same ballpark as the Raspberry Pi 4 [1] - slightly worse in single core, slightly better in multicore. So performance wise it's competitive with competing ARM boards (you get what you pay for) but the software experience should be great in comparison with most boards, even in comparison to the RPi 4.

[0]: And Windows. And FreeBSD. Perhaps even OpenBSD http://openbsd-archive.7691.n7.nabble.com/Fwd-Intel-Compute-... .

[1]: https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/compare/13701853?baseli...

[2]: Sidenote that the benchmark is skewed because of the AES benchmark. The Raspberry Pi 4 like the Atom has AES hardware acceleration when run in 64 bit mode, but this benchmark is run on 32-bit ARM. This is likely because the official RPi 4 distribution (Raspbian) is also still 32 bit. Software support affects benchmarks too.
It is still rent control. The problems you see will not be fixed by the law.

>I think one could sanely argue that allowing increases of up to 5% plus inflation is a suitable restrictio

Based on what data?

And no, it's not a 'sane' argument:

1) if 5% + inflation is above market rates then this rent control is either a no-op or detrimental because it may incentivize landlords to hike rent to maximum because they won't have have the flexibility to do that in the future if the market changes.

2) if it is below market rates, then it's just rent control and it comes with all the same baggage and detrimental effects we always see.

Rent control does not work. I don't understand the appeal to continue experimenting.

This won't be true as soon as ESNI gets implemented. (Chrome: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=908132 and Firefox nightlies have it already). However, ESNI is pretty meaningless if you're making plain-text DNS requests, so DoH is a pretty important part of the puzzle.

Uber always positions itself to be whatever is most advantageous for it given the current situation. Just a "technology-based platform", no, they are a just a modern taxi company that uses a tech platform.

I think for many "big tech" companies there needs to be a paradigm shift in how society views them, not as pure tech companies that produce technology solely for technology's sake, but like Uber - companies that use tech as a means to an end of a another business (in most cases). Facebook as a news company, Amazon as a retailer, Airbnb as a short term rental unit provider, etc. (these aren't all necessarily accurate descriptions).

Right, it seems they only use tracking to display ads for their app/website.

But then I wonder why they would be listed as Adsquare partner for their proximity targeting technology? Geo-IP can be used in some cases (weather, events), but is in other cases not precise enough for real proximity targeting.

Also, strangely, all Adsquare listed proximity targeting partners are apps or companies that have direct access to their users GPS position.
It can be tricky to fit a meaningful message in a limited space. We had a hidden easter egg of the blog post header images of our blog at one stage. The background of the header image was an IBM punched card, with the message "<Our SaaS App Name> is the greatest HR app for small businesses" (or something like that) punched out.

Given the non techie audience of our app and blog, nobody detected the hidden message, much less decoded it in the 12 months we had them up there. We've since changed the header graphic style to something completely different.

PCIe bandwidth also decreases with increasing packet size as there's a lot of overhead per packet. Memory isn't used, it's all handled in cache, hitting main memory is super slow.
I agree with you.

However this claim could be true in the future if/when Encrypted SNI (ESNI) for TLS 1.3 is deployed. Although ESNI is at the draft stage [1] and to the best of my knowledge is not at a deployable stage yet.

However it might be finalized and deployed by the time DoH for Chrome is finalized too ?

Ok. Then care about the tenants. Do you have one shred of evidence that rent control, broadly, helps tenants? Because every economist I ever heard on this topic, left or right, argues rent control is bad for tenants.

True, but if someone is already using it, it's shitty to increase the price that much. It makes it a bait-and-switch: offer for a reasonable price first, and once the family is all settled, jump a massive price increase on them. That's absolutely something that needs to be banned by law.

That's more dense than Oslo, which has several major rail arteries and a light-rail/subway system, most of which was initially built at a point where Norway was still a relatively poor country. It's vastly more than e.g. Bergen, which has 280k people, a tram

It boils down to whether or not you're willing to actually plan for it and spend money on it.

Java reaches 52% of C speed in the benchmark game ("fastest measurement at the largest workload" data set, geometric mean), we reach 38%. Seems like our implementation is within a reasonable range for something that's usually not done in Java.

A full memory barrier is not required, but some languages only offer that. For example, go had the same problem. It's not a bottleneck because it goes to MMIO PCIe space which is super slow anyways (awaits a whole PCIe roundtrip).

Matrix does not require a centralized identity server (which exists only for optionally discovering users on Matrix based on their email/phone numbers).

The linked gist is loudly complaining (amongst other things) that Riot's default config points at a centralised one by default.

We've already fixed this (https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/10553) by simply removing the concept of default identity servers entirely and instead prompting the user to select on demand whichever one they want to use, if they actually try to look up a user based on email/phone. It should be released in Riot 1.4 (on Web, and equivalent ones on mobile etc) in the coming weeks.

There is a distinction between structural confounders and the variables which you are literally backing yourself to predict when you're a day trader. You've mentioned two in the same sentence which I would consider to be polar opposites: political events and currency policy.

For example if market data operated on a significant lag in Brazil for amateur investors, but didn't in the UK, this would represent a structural disadvantage which might make it impossible to beat the market except through dumb luck in Brazil.

It wouldn't mean it's definitely possible to beat the market in the UK, but it would be something one would want to control for in a study which makes a global prediction based on data from a sample in one nation.

However political events, as I understand you to mean, are one of the things most traders are specifically backing themselves to predict in a futures market.

So my question is: what's the basis for believing that there are structural impediments to retail day traders which are present in Brazil but not present in the rest of the world? Everyone in this thread is absolutely certain they exist, but nobody seems to be able to outline what disadvantages are present for a retail Brazilian futures trader which are not present in the UK outside of red herrings like "Brazil is less stable".

The nasty trick isn't the "asking for money for some items". As you observe that's not so different from asking for money for sugar candy, it's basically useless but it did cost money to make and you don't need it per se, so fine.

But what is being called out here as _gambling_ is that you pay your money and then you get something random. It will probably be something you don't want, it might even be something you consider utterly useless.

Example: You want the Funky Guitar for Tara, your favourite character in a game. A Funky Guitar is "often" found in a Cluster Artefact the game tells you. For $10 you can buy 480 diamond blibbets. For 600 diamond blibbets you can buy a Cluster Artefact, so you give them $20, now you have 960 diamond blibbets, you can buy a Cluster Artefact. The Cluster Artefact is then smashed open by your character to reveal... a Top Hat wearable only by Steve, a character you hate playing. Too bad, buy more blibbets and maybe Tara will get lucky next time?

Gambling. A bad idea for grown-ups, obviously not something we should encourage children to do.

There's a "card trick" magicians often like to do which is to simply ask the spectator to name a card at random. If they, by pure chance, happen to name the card that the performer already knows is on top of their deck of cards (eg because they peeked at it), then they reveal the card and it looks like they performed an impossible trick. If they named any other card, then the performer simply does another trick (perhaps looping back to the named card later or perhaps simply ignoring it or making a joke). Its a good opener: if it works, it grabs everyone's attention for the remainder of the act and if it fails, nobody will even notice as they get distracted by the actual routines.

Every so often, pure random chance means that they get it right and it looks incredible to the spectators who witness it.
