Interesting, I have been doing an app for this use case for a while. I have to ship it one day.
Thanks. Why the interest in managed cluster pipeline but not Databricks? They seem to be the big name in the game for Spark. Would some tooling around snapshotting, sequential AB testing, staged rollouts, ghost models be of use?
Yes, you'd probably want to go get some asteroids. Even small ones can contain huge amounts of metals, and icy ones could be turned into fuel. There's a lot of potential, but it's all a bit out of reach for the moment. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asteroid_mining

It's ironic that you're totally inverted here. Most of the iPhone owners I know were given one by their company. It's the corporate standard so businesses which deal in phones hand them out.

I've actually never met someone with an Android device issued through their company. Literally 100% of the corporate phone users I know use iPhone!

Either your anecdote is the exact opposite of mine, or you're trying to create a narrative here that isn't really true.

P.S. Apple hasn't broken 50% marketshare in many years. https://www.counterpointresearch.com/us-market-smartphone-sh...

If you count browser stats, https://www.statista.com/statistics/272664/market-share-held..., then Apple barely cracks 50% in the US.

Based on your 'cavalier' understanding of the statistics I have to assume your storytelling here is as grounded in reality as your data!
I personally found JS much easier and accessible than Python, but YMMV.

I tried a number of different languages when I first started seriously pursuing a job in dev - C++, PHP, Ruby, Python, and eventually I settled on JS. JS let me quickly get something working while being able to understand what was going on. The other platforms had various barriers that made it difficult to focus on what I wanted to do because I had to know a ton of other things first, or to accept not knowing how something functioned (especially true with Rails).

The only real gotcha I really had struggled with in my first year as a professional dev was reference variables, but that is a gotcha you could run into in most standard languages and not unique to JavaScript.
Chris is a fairly gender neutral name. Just say 'they'; it's in the dictionary now for gender neutrality so no reason not to.
If anything, we need less centralization on this kind of thing, and more deferral to lower jurisdictions. Trying to pass a national standard in the USA is going to be inappropriate almost everywhere. If New York City needs a minimum wage of $20, fine, as long as Jackson, Mississippi can have a $7.50 wage, if that is appropriate there.
I feel like you are changing the goal posts. I explicitly said that any group isn't above the law. So I'm not exempting fraudulent behavior by any means. Nor did I say that liberty required limited liability. I've tried to suggest that my thoughts are about all sorts of groups, not just limited liability corporations.

What I was pushing back at was your suggestion that a corporation must "benefit society". That particular phrasing is completely open ended in my mind suggesting way too much power to be wielded if you aren't "benefiting society". Perhaps that isn't what you intended but IMHO appeals to "improving society", "helping the children", "the greater good" in the abstract are either power grabs or empty phrases. The specifics mater.

Because you have some unique interest. In a city you can fill it, not in a small town. Do you want a tank of Argon - you won't get that in the smallest towns (argon is useful enough that many farmers have a tank for welding). What about a new magic trick - order from amazon and hope it isn't cheap junk, or buy from the local store and see it in person first - you need a larger city to support that store. Maybe you want see a Broadway type musical, the larger the city the better talent they can afford to act. (in small towns the main actor is still pretty good but the support actors are not very good)

> Delivery has been mostly outsourced

This is true in just about every market in the US, including all the ones without minimum wage increases.

> The price of everything on the menu has gone up

You could say this most years about any restaurant and most years you'd be right. The other years, you'd see smaller servings.

> A number of lower-cost restaurants have closed completely

The average person eats at fewer restaurants in their entire life than the number of restaurants that close in NYC in any given year. Anecdotes aren't a data point.
By then everybody will speak enough english that it won't matter. The economies of the network effect are quite simple.

And of course I'm at an advantage, the very fact that I'm german would put me at an advantage even if english was as far away as possible from german, because I have the resources, I have free education and I have free medicare, plus 400 years of the subjugation of the third world in my back. So what. Life isn't fair, the worlds top 30 People own as much as the bottom 3 Billion, thats unfair.

Instead of bickering about which language would be fairest to adopt you should help make everyone adopt SOME language so that they can organize and exchange. So that they can understand for themselves what other are saying instead of having to rely on potentially biased news. So that they can talk to each other, for sympathy and empathy and understanding.

My bet is on English for that one.

Plus it seems that it's not so hard after all:

>Then we can also have more of untouched land for wildlife and our general pleasure.

I live in a rural area in Ohio. Any eligible land that isn't being tilled already gets converted to farm land. Plots are getting consolidated, treelines are getting leveled and burned to gain another couple acres of arable land.

I think if we all move to cities there will be some natural parks but most of it will be converted to ag and industry. If you get a couple million acres of privately held land, who knows what's happening in there.
It's important to understand that there's a difference between "R&D" as it lives in most people's minds here, and "R&D" as it presents in financial reporting. The former is associated with hiring PhD's and building labs. The latter is everything not covered by cost of sales. Different companies balance the buckets in different ways at different times. And there are many activities that fall under the latter that most would not associate with the former. Companies that make staples report R&D on their financials too. And companies that fund AI also do a lot of R&D that looks the R&D that goes into making staples.
Right, that's what struck me about this question too. It is not about "beautiful design" when it comes to linux software, it is about being functional and that includes being on top of all of the fragmentation when it comes to linux desktops, window managers, distributions, and libraries.

It is hard to justify paying for something when you have to spend an appreciable amount of time getting it to work in your set up. Working well out of the box and consistently with updates is the first step.
Yes. Buy, not subscribe.
So restaurants which have the lowest margins (chains) are proliferating but restaurants with higher margins are failing.

That seems to indicate that worker pay isn’t really the issue here.

And it’s well known the reason restaurants are closing shop is almost because of outrageous rents.
Everyone loves a good Javascript punching bag but I would argue that the language/ecosystem has the most inertia and positive change within it. It's not perfect and it's exhausting at times, but I'm confident that the language will continue to move towards something more robust and ergonomic.

One more thing to note. From the post:

> In a C application, try as hard as I may, at the end of the day I am always on my own, making sure the invariants I need for memory safety hold. In Rust, I can be 100% confident that I will not have memory-unsafe code. Not 98%-and-I’d-better-check-those-last-2%-really-closely. One hundred percent. That’s a game-changer.

I think if you're always leaning on a compiler for correctness, maybe your problem doesn't reside in the static vs dynamic debate.
> On the other hand, an extra $1.20 on a $3.50 burger might dissuade large numbers of customers from dining out.

That's the whole point of the article. The experiment has been performed and they are analyzing the results. The results are that people accept a 10% increase and/or that the buying power of increased wages at the bottom expanded the market enough to make up for your hypothetical lost income.
It is equally obvious that there would be an extreme backlash by politicians and regulators if facebook ever decides to (openly) use that power. Also, it would alienate at least half their user base.

In short, why would they even want to be seen as possibly having that power?
Yes, absolutely, and eventually.

Restaurants have long been subsidized by workers stuck in a position where they will work for _any_ wage. As that changes, which is demonstrably a good thing, so will prices rise to match costs.

It’s similar to the way Uber/Lyft prices will need to rise when their subsidies change terms.
I typically do everything custom these days. In the past I would use Bootstrap, Semantic or one of the many other CSS frameworks but I found that I add a lot of size to my applications when I only used a few things from it. Most features (sidebars, grids, menus...) are simple enough to just implement on your own. I was a graphic designer that moved into development so I feel I have a pretty good sense of design and UX.

I do however use various charting libraries out there for ReactJS as they are typically quite well done and small in size. If I need something a little more custom I'll install D3 and build it out.

For backend I have used Node/Express quite a bit to serve API's and such. But as mentioned in my previous post lately I've been using system programming languages a lot more for building backend things mostly as a learning exercise and because I have the freedom to do that in my job.

Building out these tools and seeing them being used daily from nearly all employees in a ~400 person company is really rewarding. It really gives me a sense of appreciation for the work I do and I get a lot of good suggestions on how to improve the applications that in turn improve the work these employees do.

Other things I've used in the past for various projects include Ionic Framework & PhoneGap (mobile app), Zephyr RTOS (BLE Mesh Programming), React Native, Angular, Electron (Visitor Check In/Out Kiosks), and lots of CSS frameworks (too many to name).
> So who gets to decide how much profit this person is allowed to make?

Their customers get to decide that.
I think that's the definition of "living wage".
I think you have this backwards, paying others to make food for you is a luxury. If you can afford a $50 microwave that you can then use to make meals that cost less than a dollar, that is the standard. You don't need a 'nice kitchen' to eat at home. Not to mention, their wage is double the $7.25 national minimum wage, but food prices at these restaurants do not double in response, so they still come out ahead.

OP said if you’re in your 40s and being managed by someone a decade younger than you. That would mean 30s. At my last job there was one manager in his early 30s (promoted at a small company and then switched). At my current org there aren’t any managers in their 30s but there’s more levels. I’m feel comfortable here because my current managers were ex SEs.
It’s odd, this sounds exactly like what I had for a couple years.

It would start with a Sharp pain around my ribs And then in the next day or so it would move to my back. My guess is that the back muscles worked too hard at compensating for the rib pain somehow.

Two main things helped. Stopped doing sit ups and most ab exercises. They triggered the rib issue pretty consistently.

Also starting take magnesium supplements. I feel it coming back sometimes if I miss a few days of supplements.

(Also you mention the hydration link, that sounds like it definitely could be an electrolyte issue. So magnesium for sure and also try to get more potassium)
If I had to pay that much in rent, I wouldn't go into business.
Intel badly needed good competition, because they grew arrogant, lazy and stopped evolving (ECC, PCIE 4, more PCI lanes anybody?). What they got is even better, and they are OK with admitting current superiority of AMD on desktops in most use cases.

Is the situation still bad with Intel regarding side-channel attacks? The fixes for those used to drop performance for up to 30%, which render them pathetic compared to AMD which doesn't suffer from those issues. This is real performance, not some synthetic benchmarks.

>Another way of looking at this would be: a job in McDonalds is not supposed to be a means of supporting the family of four.

Supposed by whom? McDonalds will suggest it's best their jobs be seen as side gigs for teenagers because that's the explanation that best supports their profit margins. The reality is that families of four will have to be supported by McDonalds wages if no other jobs are available for the individual in question.

Another way of looking at it is: what percentage of citizens do you think society should artificially inhibit from being able to support children? Is it 5%? 20%?

You are right. The following countries [1] (2016):

Hungary
Ireland

So yeah, it is not banned everywhere (or allowed in certain professions only), but in 70% of the EU.

I would pay for its development but the end result must be free software. If we don't then I think we're being disrespectful to the developers who's work we're building upon but I might be alone in that opinion. I hold that opinion for Linux but not the web. It feels somewhat hypocritical though.

This is like saying that AWS doesn't matter because people have been hosting servers for decades. It's technically correct but misses the entire point.

SpaceX and RocketLab do print parts, but they still need assembly lines with hard to source machines and skilled labor. RocketLab is working on reusability not because of cost savings but because they are assembly line constrained.

https://www.rocketlabusa.com/news/updates/rocket-lab-announc...

> we’re now establishing the reusability program to further increase launch frequency,” says Mr. Beck.

That's a jaw-dropping statement, it's easier and faster to develop reusability as a way to get more cores than to build a new assembly line.

Relativity is printing out entire rockets, only stacking required. New assembly line is entirely contained in a new printer, constrained on upper stages? Just retask a printer no multi-year long lead time to build up a new set of traditional tools. Don't need any more rockets right now? Print planes instead. The list of advantages goes on.

I'll suggest this interview with Relativity space.

The original point of a tip was to optionaly pay when service goes over and above what they need to do.

At some point, it morphed into passing part of the service staff wage to the customer and pretending this was somehow a good thing. It's so entrenched in culture now people just assume even for crap service you tip. At the end of the day, it really gives management an easy out by putting the customer against the service staff for labor rates while the restaurant decides fixed meal costs.
I'm not insulting anyone. I actually worked these jobs in the past. I know the people personally. And yes, if you read what I posted, I explicitly stated that the government needs to make up the gap. We can tax high wage earners and redistribute the money to them directly without immediately raising the prices at the stores they use. So I'm saying I'll personally pay more taxes to help raise these people out of poverty. I think that is treating people with dignity, apparently you disagree.
To be fair, you have to consider that the size of the web has continued to increase exponentially during the past 7 years, plus all the SEO tactics that are getting complex as the stakes are raised. Not an excuse to have a degraded service, but the challenge of just maintaining quality is huge.
Many people like living in she suburbs. There they are exposed to less traffic and emissions from said traffic. We discussed this [1] last week and it seems less traffic has a major effect on air quality. The air you breath would literally be enriched if you lived in suburbia. But I do get your point, I live in a small town and when I travel to a place like Vancouver, it is fascinating to be able to choose from so many different venues and options throughout the entire giant city.

> I explicitly don't want any IP addresses in my green zone to be directly accessibly from my red zone.

This is exactly what the job of a firewall is.

NAT is a hack due to IP address exhaustion. Any security is a side effect. Nothing that says "NAT" on the tin is obligated to protect you.

NAT on your own network if you really drink that kool-aid is fine. I'm more concerned about CGNAT. If ISPs implement NAT (called CGNAT), it means you can't accept incoming connections without your ISP approving/supporting it. I don't want to have to beg my ISP to open ports for me and question/approve why I'm doing it.
“This period” in the quoted report is 2013-2018.

> Only about 4 percent of survey respondents indicated that none of the above changes took place in their restaurants.
