Another possibility, albeit much more dramatic, is only using modules, if your audience is 100% modern browsers.

At my previous job we imported our Google Analytics data into caniuse.com [1] and noticed that >99.9% of our app users were in modern browsers. Same for the public facing website. There was one single visit from someone using IE, but the application wouldn't load for him anyway.

Using those stats we were able to also remove a bunch of polyfills. The next step we were planning was either using a CDN for dependencies or something like Pika [2].

Unfortunately both Vue.js and React/Preact [3] require a compilation step for a good experience IMO. Otherwise I'd just skip the compilation step altogether and write JS like in the old times.

Straight from Cloudflare's own blog: "From a technical perspective, WARP is a VPN. But it is designed for a very different audience than a traditional VPN. WARP is not designed to allow you to access geo-restricted content when you’re traveling. It will not hide your IP address from the websites you visit. If you’re looking for that kind of high-security protection then a traditional VPN or a service like Tor are likely better choices for you."

It's always fun to look at the performance figures in aircraft manuals.

Somewhere, a skilled test pilot got those numbers in a pristine plane.

But mere humans in a real-world plane will typically not obtain them.
This is correct. Their profits are capped at 20%. If they make too much money, they have to refund premiums.
Well, maybe, and maybe it's also interpreting it correctly when it provides "patrocines", but it also misunderstands the meaning of the Spanish word.

Though, talking about what it interprets or understands of the words is also wrong. At the end of it all (including neural nets), its logic is probably still based on matching words and phrases between languages without really understanding their meaning like you or I do.

Google Translate offers the option for people to correct it, but many people are probably misled by the false friends. Even I don't know of a proper Spanish translation for the concept of being "patronizing" or "condescending". I can't think of a good word or phrase, and I've never heard a Spanish speaker use anything of the sort. It's something I'd have to explain.

Every online translator I check gives me "condescendiente", but if I check Spanish dictionaries, including the most authoritative one at https://rae.es/, they give no such definition. The closest words are the equivalent of "arrogant" and "to spoil" which aren't really the same.

It may be that a proper translation simply does not exist. That also happens. For example, as far as I know, there's no English equivalent of "estrenar" in Spanish, which means "to use for the first time".

You can wrap a telnet session in TLS pretty easily which then protects the plain text password floating by.

I've also been playing around with OAuth inside of a telnet session, but it's a little wonky as you might guess. If you're signed into Grapevine (mentioned above as well) this link will have you auto signed into a telnet session: https://grapevine.haus/games/Spigot/play

This is my draft spec (it's not completely filled in but the idea is there) https://gist.github.com/oestrich/1fc022a448c36ac2aa5a099f4ca...

Spigot and Grapevine are also open source if you wanted to poke around.
Some of our initial pilots had similar problems. Segment's pricing also doesn't work when you have a lot of free users. That(and privacy) are the two pain points we hope to address with this.

Happy to help you try this out if you want (please email soumyadeb@rudderlabs.com). We are behind on number of integrations (vs segment) and features but we will catch-up. And hoping to get community support on that.

Yeah, I'd rather not. Pretty comfortable dabbling with Python for scientific projects, and a little API/JSON work. Pretty sure after more than fifteen years in IT, if I had the talent for code, it would have "clicked" by now.

Honestly, given the direction things are heading (Startups wanting generic worker drones, and not specialists) I'm about a hair's breadth from selling everything I own, and buying a $30,000 farm house somewhere in a rural flyover state.

Scripting and automation is one thing, but startups putting ops/architect roles through Fizzbuzz bullshit is a little annoying after a dozen or so interviews.

Of course it is. We don't owe them anything any more than they owe the victims of their ancestors' pillaging, which is nothing.

>At the end of the day, I'm tired of trying to advocate for the idea that you should care about other people.

Presumably you are discovering that people have their own problems to deal with, and don't always feel like being lectured about how they should put the problems of the rest of the world first.

>Which, as it turns out, is actually the case for most kinds of immigration, despite what loads of unsupported FUD would like people to believe.

It's actually not the case if you're a tax payer. More than 60% of households headed by an immigrant use some form of welfare.

That's money those taxpayers could otherwise have used to pay for their own children, and maybe could've afforded to have more.

It's also not the case if you're a low or medium skilled worker.

It is the case if you're a wealthy business owner who benefits from cheap labor or a highly skilled worker in a field that's not greatly affected by an influx in labor.

Good summary. Nothing factual to see here, just another identity politic screed about books this individual either disagrees with or has never read.

EMTALA is precisely the problem. We cannot ask for any money before seeing the patient; nor can we ask for a deposit.

Further, we are medicolegally liable for all care we provide even if we don't get a dime.

That was the original intent of going out of network; we'd tell the patients "we don't accept your insurance because we could not come to an agreement; if you'd like to continue, we can see you but it will be billed to you. We'd appreciate you telling them you want to see us as a subscriber"

However, with the corporatization of medicine, the individual decision making has been lost.

> The airspeed unreliable checklist requires advancing throttles to the appropriate setting for the current stage of the flight regime, which was climb out.

It's basic airmanship to know that if you are not in climb attitude, that high power is going to overspeed in anything slick. Combine that with "overspeed" alerts and you should maybe realize it's time to pull the power back.

> They turned it back on in the hopes that the electronic trim could overpower the aerodynamic load where they could not, they did not realize that closing the circuit would give at most five seconds before MCAS dove again. Also, by this point, they were out of checklist.

They turned it back on, clicked the trim switch briefly, and then left it alone, despite knowing they were way out of trim. Can you explain why this makes sense? Why turn it on and not get back to nominal trim?

Also, they were still climbing at Vmmo (or overspeed). It would have always been an option to climb a bit...

Just make it illegal to target ads based on the people viewing them. You can still target to things like contexts, venues, areas, etc. but it would rule this out and it would eliminate the justification to farm so much personal info.
I'm an ER doc. A couple of points:

1. If we consult a specialist, that usually means we have no idea what's going on. Sometimes, we do it for "customer service" if a patient really wants the consult and doesn't seem to trust what we're telling them. If we know ahead of time that a specialist is going to say that they don't know the cause of the pain and there's nothing to be done, then in absence of customer service issues we usually don't consult the specialist. I'm sorry you feel you got a raw deal on that.

Why we focus on customer service issues is another interesting topic. It basically comes down to hospital admin, like most other bureaucrats, love customer feedback surveys (Press-Ganey being the most common) and doctors can get in trouble or even lose their jobs if their customer service scores drop low enough.

2. Unfortunately doctors are completely ignorant about the financial aspects of this. Likely the specialist didn't even know you would be charged $450 for his consult. I don't see any good solution to this problem, especially as we're taught in med school that the patient's health is the most important thing and financial aspects should be secondary. Not saying I agree or disagree with this, just that even if a doctor disagrees with this there's no way for them to change the facts.
And that explanation was that he’s done a bunch of valuable stuff. But your first answer to me was “justice.” These don’t match at all.

The comparison with the African kid went over my head because approximately none of the people pouring so much effort into being outraged that Stallman got fired have a close personal connection with him. Sure, I’m more upset when a friend suffers than when a stranger does. But you’re not friends with Stallman, are you?
>The crews that crashed did not do great.

Not necessarily fair since one didn't even know what they were up against, and the other was trusting a Boeing checklist that wasn't guaranteed to work, and only stood a realistic chance at working if the failure did not occur at a critical stage of the flight, where a currently undocumented maneuver could be performed. (The 'roller coaster' by which the pilot allows the plane to dive to unload the stabilizer so it can be trimmed)

>And MCAS is more easily improved than the rest: we can more easily reduce the frequency and severity of that "testing" than we can improve all flight crews. But we shouldn't ignore the problems in crew decision-making, and the related training choices (e.g. not requiring crews to demonstrate handling of runaway trim in some jurisdictions).

This is just poppycock, if you ask me.

MCAS was a desperate attempt to satisfy a prescriptive behavior requirement (FAR 25.173, demonstration of longitudinal stability) during which the plane should not experience slackening control forces all the way to the stall in a wind up turn, which non-compliance with would disqualify the airframe from certification under the grandfathered 737 type certificate and as a Civil Transport Airplane.

There would have been no need to consider the skill of the pilots if due diligence and proper redundancy concomitant to the actual hazards of the design had been done, which weren't due to management's pressure to get this damn plane flying on time at any cost.
Just today I called my local hospital asking them how much they were going to charge me for an ultrasound Id already preformed. I’m in the middle of a qualifying life event and the new insurance retroactively kicks in.

I need to know how much this will cost to decide which plan is better, mine or my spouses.

The lady didn’t know how much they would charge. This is the only industry where they don’t know how much they’re going to chi argue me after the procedure

Even better, yes. The hiring manager often reads a bunch of notes and creates a narrative to support his already made decision.

For example, a SWE will write this type of blurb:

"I asked the candidate to tell me about a time when he dealt with an unresponsive or slow responsive co-worker. He told me he leveraged the project tracking tools to assign bugs/tasks with ETA deadlines after following up offline and explaining the dependency and urgency, then set up meetings and when he was ignored and everything failed, escalated to management and used plan B to work around the dependency"

I want to hire the guy: "He definitely has bias for action, removing obstacles and using all tools at his disposal. He seems to have a no-nonsense approach to getting stuff done"

I don't want to hire the guy: "Seems like a yellow flag, doesn't demonstrate influencing skills which are critical for a senior engineer. I don't believe he works well with others"

etc..

It's the same with the Amazon leadership principles. They are often used as a tool for fucking someone over in office politics warfare.
Oh yeah, NVMe is an absolute given. It only took one NVMe drive experience and I have never had a desktop or laptop since without a large NVMe SSD as the boot and primary disk. It is in many cases a substantial boost and you can benefit across more things than a bigger CPU since many things these days are IO bound to begin with!

I’m rocking a Samsung 970 Pro 512 GB on my desktop. I never thought I’d need more space than that, since I can always use my NAS or the spare spinning disk I have installed. But, the more CPU power you have, the more you can feed it... I find myself building entire fragments of Nixpkgs now and it takes substantial disk space to do it.

> we should start calling bottled water "plastic water"

Might that be surprisingly effective as way to reduce bottled water use?

As a drop-in replacement for the phrase "bottled water", it meme-ishly supports interpersonal and self discouragement of use: "Here's your plastic water dear."; "Don't forget to buy my plastic water.".

The "plasticness" of bottles is highly salient when opening, handling, and trashing them, and is associated with the pollution. Imagine an ad with someone opening a bottle, with putting-down-the-cap noise, making that "crunching" bottle noise, drinking from and looking at a bottle, and recycling it, all while describing plastic "dust" and its health and ecosystem issues. So that bottle handling becomes a memory trigger for the issues and an associate visceral "yuck".

Nifty idea.
Quote: "One of the book's claims, which I found shocking at first, was that in a large organization, executives don't set strategy".

Yeah, let's agree to disagree and let's take a look at history. 1 - Microsoft. Bill definitely had a strategy, one that almost cost him his sanity at the end of 90's, but nevertheless made Microsoft in only 25 years a behemoth. 2 - Apple. Steve definitely had a strategy when returned to Apple. Got all hardware licenses back and worked on iPhone until was the game-changer. 3 - Amazon. You going to tell me Jeff didn't had any strategy? Yeah right.

You know who didn't had a strategy after almost 100 years of strategies of its CEO's? Kodak. Remember Kodak? Yeah, it took only 15 years of streams of CEO's to be one per year with no strategy and a board full of idiots to make that company disappear from the face of Earth.

Same experience, many people see tap water as being inferior and maybe even dirty, so they go with the bottled water.

On the contrary, I wouldn’t _usually_ expect a lot of value from someone who did all that.

My first intuitions would be that they’re likely reluctant to make practical compromises, slow to accept norms, and that they’re prone to chasing rabbits. They might have a role on a large team or for a very specific project, but there’s be some wariness for sure.
Is there any defensible reason you're determined to create an authoritarian fetish out of my assertion that scientific research worth funding in the first place is worth bundling with a communications budget to ensure it is appropriately understood?

You're tilting at windmills, here.
"Tap" doesn't always have a uniform flavor, even in the same city. It's perfectly possible that bottled tap might taste better than the tap water at your house.
Isn't this one of the surprising parts of growing old? As a young person you may feel that your future self will be attended by loving family members and caring friends. But, once you become a "head of household" or head of anything, it's often quite the opposite. Instead, you are responsible for attending to the emotional needs others.
Only nerds in denial about verbal intellects think this.
To quote the article:

> Even as we reach for the less terrible of two terrible ideas, we’re constantly reminded of how little say we have at all. Neither liberal feminists nor libertarians, radical feminists nor the religious right, can hear us speak in our own words. They do not want to hear us; they want to collect the scraped-bare “facts” of our lives and call them data.

The author laments that data and statistics have not proven effective tools unto themselves. And to quote you:

> To form a useful opinion about sex worker laws, that’s what I need. Facts totally divorced from human empathy

What the article does is provide real-life anecdata of how public policy has been harmful to sex-workers. This is useful information: seeing a law or policy, and then seeing a counter-example of how it didn't work in practice, some times even in spite of good-intentions, from people who have access to data.

A scientist will build their hypotheses first, then build the data to either affirm or refute their intuition. And this article can inform future policy-making and data acquisition.
Aha, I've seen that study on Hacker News before and I wrote a variant of the following observation:

A charitable read of that paper, particularly p. 25, would suggest that trafficking dropped from 19,740 cases to 12,350 cases when prostitution was liberalised.

I've done enough statistics to say that I don't think the paper conclusively shows evidence of a problem; particularly given how hard it must be to gather data on illegal things. Need more rigour to be used for this sort of discussion although it does show that there is a risk to be considered.
One issue I had with Segment, I couldn't run real-time transformation of the event to join data from our data tables. We eventually got over it with AWS Lambda and sending it back to Segment. Segment recently announced functions to help on this, still could not get my hands on it.

I'm not convinced this is the real deal. Change my mind?
This is true; I’ve never worked on a huge Rust project, only fairly large C++ projects (at home, anyways.) Rust compilations always felt fast enough to not matter, similar to Go, although maybe not quite that fast. (With Go, it never felt to slow to say, build Kubernetes from scratch; it’s just fast.)
> they're not (to me) very effective means at fulfilling the purpose since they'll select for candidates most capable of reading your mind, not actually really useful candidates

This is an important point, and it can be difficult as an interviewer to prevent your own self bias to select candidates that respond how you would personally respond.

That being said, I don't think this criticism applies to all the suggested questions. "If you have to solve a problem you haven't solved before, how do you approach it?" seems like a fairly easy one to identify learning methods and response to new problems. Although, a variation of this question was in the original linked article as well (#3).
This is great! Although I feel like the website is missing a little bit of "Why". Everything on the site is about "here's how to do this, how to buy, how to build your own, etc...", but not much about why this project came about, why I should care about adding a sensor, and what you plan to do with the data.

Anyways, I think it's a great initiative. I added you as a ressource on emfhelp.org
I think anyone who's an expert in any general-purpose programming language can find a way to parlay that into a job, since it's much easier for them to learn another language, but knowing Clojure doesn't help much for learning other JVM languages. My guess is an expert C++ programmer could pick up Java faster than a Clojure programmer.
