I just put the tags in the file name, like “2019-12-25_xmas_bob_grandma.jpg”. Obviously you can’t go crazy with a bunch of tags, but I think I can get by with 2 or 3 tags at most. I was afraid to use sidecar info or xattr because I think that data can be lost if the files get moved between file systems (ie eventually moved from the current hdd to the nas I have yet to buy, etc). I definitely kept my raw unorganized folder on the ext hdd for now, but I’ve run several scripts to make sure I didn’t inadvertently overwrite or miss anything.
Nice tip, I'll try that next time, thanks!
The officer did ask me to sign not order me, but it still left me with an un easy feeling. Once I got home I thought about it, and was dumb to comply because if I had been in an accident that document could have been used to either refuse or reduce my insurance, and possibly be used in civil action by the other party.
Oh you betcha! Lots of boys like traditionally girly things. Although a lot of parents tend to quash it out of embarrassment. Social pressure to force your children to conform to gender norms is pretty intense. If you support your boy child in traditionally feminine activities you can bet there will be a lot of backlash. Just ask anyone who's male children take ballet, dance, or dress up in pink. Often they are accused of "indoctrinating" their kid or "raising a sissy." It can get pretty malicious.

Sure, but the bereavement leave for a child should be much more than 8 weeks. And it costs so little to provide since it is relatively rare in the developed world.

With HTTP/2 pipelines, and upcoming HTTP/3 updates, I’m skeptical how much performance gains are actually achieved with shared cache anyways. As far as I’m aware, a TCP connection is still opened when using the cache, as well as TLS with all its overhead. This is all just speculation, but it would be an interesting experiment to compare how much (if any) benefits are seen pulling in that common JQuery script while still loading custom JavaScript from your own host vs bundling it all together or just loading them both separately from your own host. HTTP connections are certainly not free.

the differentiation that needs to be made is for recovery vs bonding. it sounds like the company in question has that now. bereavement would be good to cover folx that otherwise wouldn’t have this (eg miscarriage). but going from 8 to 6 weeks for the last weeks of pregnancy and first weeks of postpartum is pretty brutal.

At least for my country, NYT is correct that a large portion of the subsidies goes to few companies but that's not the whole story. Quite a bit of those companies are renting the land from regular people - land ownership is very fragmented here. The companies amass vast areas of rented land and, yes, the subsidies benefit them but what I've noticed that as a result of competition, the rents increase to a point where most, if not all of the subsidy, goes to the land owner, rather than the company that farms the land.

So, it's not as simple as the article makes it seem but even with that in mind, it's far from a perfect system, as it doesn't do much to increase the competitiveness/productivity/sustainability of the EU agriculture sector. It's just a transfer of tax money to land owners, be they oligarchs or regular people.
Hey, stop trying to stop people from making money!
This is a consequence of an increasing labor force. If productivity rises but there are more workers available than are necessary to produce the goods demanded, the price for labor will fall, and all of the gains of this productivity will be accrued by capital. If there are fewer workers available than are needed to man the machines, the wages paid to those workers will increase, and all the productivity gains will be captured by labor.

The plight of the American worker tracks very well with how many of them there are (modulo globalization, which makes the plight of the worker track with how many there are globally). The golden years of the 1950s coincided with the depopulation and destruction of capital stock following WW2; this made America the only country that still had productive industry, which brought in a good deal of global money that could be shared with the G.I. and Silent generations. 70s stagflation and 80s malaise coincided with the entry of baby boomers into the workforce and household-forming years: with more laborers, wages fell, and with more consumers for a fixed number of goods, prices rose. The late 80s recovery and 90s boom coincided with Gen-X and the retirement of the G.I. Generation: with few incoming workers and lots of outgoing ones, wages rose. The post-2000 malaise coincides with the entry of Millenials into the workforce: the world population has grown from 4.5 billion in the early 80s to 7.7 billion today, and all those young people are entering the workforce now.

It's likely that as the Boomers die off and the Homelander generation (post-2001 & tiny) enters the workforce, wages will rise naturally and capital prices will fall significantly.
Win10 analytics (and forced updates) is what finally pushed me to exclusively using linux after many years of dual-booting. There are still choices thankfully (for now).
I didn't say you need manual intervention. I said you cannot do automatic inference generation. What you're referring to does not provide automatic inference generation, i.e. you cannot brute force hypotheses. That's why you still employ researchers.

More to your specific example, I've also worked with the alternative data you're talking about and it doesn't offer automated inference generation. You implicitly have a hypothesis (or several) in mind when you're working with things like credit card transaction data from Yodlee or Second Measure.

Automation is a continuum. What you're talking about is automating time series analysis. I never said you can't do that.
> Specifically, it schedules the programs that themselves should adhere to the Unix philosophy

Containers are not programs. And even they were, they absolutely do not adhere to the Unix philosophy.

> Kubernetes is the operating system in this analogy

I've heard this enough times and seen enough K8s systems in production that I'm labeling this "fluff". K8s is an operating system in the same way that "everything is everything". K8s is software that manages containers and their resources. I think of it more like a virtual environment than an operating system.

From Wikipedia:

> An operating system (OS) is system software that manages computer hardware, software resources, and provides common services for computer programs.

You can generalize "software resources" as container resource limits. You can generalize "common services" as the network and filesystem layers. And you can generalize "computer hardware" as kernel configuration on the control plane.

All of these are purpose built abstractions built on top of the real operating systems. By that logic you could call any virtual environment or virtual machine an operating system. And if that's the true then the comparison isn't useful at all.
Surprisingly there is no one book AFAIK but techniques are spread across many books;

The first thing is to understand FSMs and State Transition Tables using a simple two-dimensional array. Implementing a FSM using a while/ifthenelse code vs. Transition table dispatch will really drive home the idea behind data-driven programming. There is a nice explanation in Expert C Programming: Deep C secrets.

SICP has a detailed chapter on data-driven programming.

An old text by Standish; Data Structure Techniques.

Also i remember seeing a lot of neat table based data-driven code in old Data Processing books using COBOL. Unfortunately i can't remember their names now. Just browse some of the old COBOL books in the library.
I had a coworker who went through this. My bosses were very gracious. She was on leave for some time, purely for mental health reasons. And I’m sure returning to work with her job intact was a major comfort. Our direct boss at the time would meet with her for lunch occasionally until she felt well enough to come back. I’m willing to bet it was the best way it could have gone for her in light of what she experienced.

She has since had a healthy baby and is usually beaming.

If you use Twitter, you can see the list of your supposed interests they have inferred from your activity on their own site. They have so much firsthand user data, but my results at least are so bad. Of almost a thousand topics, less than half are even remotely relevant to me.

Ada, Fortran, and even Cobol, satisfy the needs of a given domain: safety-critical environments for Ada, scientific computing for Fortran, business transactions for Cobol.

They won't be replaced in the next decades, and even some new systems might be implemented in them.

Languages for production were often designed to address a set of (hard) problems, as opposed to general-purpose languages (Python, Java, C++, etc.)

Sure, there are some web servers/apps written in Fortran or Ada. But those are examples of what the languages can achieve, not how they are actually used in production.
> We have started to chase a false “unicorn” narrative of websites with expected app-like experiences, but sizes like text documents from the 2000s. Something doesn’t add up.

May be it is just me, I dont expect or want a "App Like" experience. I want a page, and at best a slightly interactive, moderate animation added web page. Not Web App.

I dont see many around me wanted Web App either ( At least for AirPod Pro Page Purposes ). The chase to Web App, or expected to be web apps has been coming from developers and solely developers.

So the I think the chase App experience and Size from 2000s is a false narrative in itself.

I would have given it a pass grade if the Apple AirPro Page were loading smoothly, but it wasn't. The page didn't even scroll at 30fps with my quad core MacBook Pro, and I am longing for Webpage or even Apps to render at 120fps.

Okay, and if people were buying 4-figure Bang and Olufsen stereo systems and hooking up a 5-dollar cassette recorder as their music production system, I'd be perturbed by that as well.

If it's merely a consumption device, why attempt to develop on it? If it's a serious tool, why is the $5 component needed? Most of all - why don't you have a device that actually does what you want it to, properly, and why doesn't this bother you?
Google recently announced a 25 billion dollar stock buyback so investors are definitely getting some returns. Also, I'm pretty sure most investors are happy with their investments in waymo considering it has been valued by some analysts at over a hundred billion dollars despite not making any revenue yet as far as I know and I've read they have invested over 5 billion dollars into it which is pretty much out of the realm of what even SoftBank would invest in a company with no revenue yet.
There's two problems with leftpad:

(1) Dependencies always add certain minimal level of complexity, so a too-trivial dependency can add more-than-warranted complexity as a dependency even when the implementation itself would not do so as an integrally-maintained component of the larger system.

(2) the nature of the npm distribution ecosystem (and this is by no means unique to npm) means that the complexity and risk added by dependencies managed through that ecosystem is more than it otherwise could be with immutable, append-only repositories of dependencies.
Attacking infrastructure is an act of war. In 2011 the Pentagon took this stance on cyber warfare:

“For the first time, the Pentagon has decided that cyber attacks constitute an act of war, reports The Wall Street Journal. The U.S. military drafted a classified 30-page document concluding that the U.S. may respond to cyber attacks from foreign countries with traditional military force, citing the growing threat of hackers on U.S. infrastructure such as subways, electrical grids or nuclear reactors.”

> Do these people just sit around and spend time coming up with ways to screw others over?

Yes, they literally do (or hire consultants to do it).

I went to school with lots of people who ended up in management consulting. One in particular worked at Deloitte and specialized in "human capital".

Most of their projects were to figure out how an organization could drastically reduce pension/retirement benefits for existing workers legally, while also offering much worse plans for new hires that looked good on paper.

They were paid around $1,800/day/consultant for all of these cost-cutting projects.

(This is not at all an uncommon story in the enterprise consulting world, by the way.)
> Still, punish the 95% (or whatever very high number) for the shitty behavior of other 5% of people? I understand it is business and companies need to protect their profits, but this is ridiculous.

Yeah, I agree. Just pointing out that this stuff rarely comes from mustache-twirling villains and more often is just a misguided attempt to solve some other related problem. Cutting off commission that has already been earned sounds pretty bad.
I think PostgREST is the first big tool written in Haskell that I’ve used in production. From my experience, it’s flawless. Kudos to the team.
> But I'll be damned if I don't use `ls -lah` because I am a human, not a robot.

I'd prefer that '-lah' be an external composable modifier. 'ls -la' looks like it is, I think, because it tries to create simpler common case, for the expense of that case be more specialized. Since, as somebody decided, 'ls' by default contain only some information available, one presumably needs 'ls -zz' (a made up option) which would produce all information available, and a composed to it filter which would select what is needed at the time.

If composability would be really cheap, we wouldn't need that special '-zz' option. We can even consider an option as a composition of additional operation over generic 'ls' behavior - in this case we wouldn't need the shell 'pipe' operator, and syntax of shell statements would become closer to Haskell's. For example, 'cat' could do something generic by itself, while 'cat note.txt' would be considered a composition of 'cat' and 'note.txt' which creates a specialized behavior (which sort of reminds Forth).
If you read sibling comments, you'll see that I am not in the US, so most of your comment does not apply. A $40 plan in Canada might get me 1 GB if I was lucky (I can't actually find a plan that cheap that includes any data at all). The cheapest "unlimited" plans (which are 10gb then speed restricted) is about $80.

As to 6GB being a "small limit that fits a light user" - I use my data for work, tethering a couple hours every work day. I also browse/read probably an hour a day on data. I stay within the limit by avoiding YouTube, and now apparently apple websites.
Based on my past experiences I find that "x" amps of rated charging current often is more of a cap on the total input current.

Samsung devices (this is a Note 5 btw) limit charge current when the screen is on, probably to reduce the heat generated by the device (though I would much have preferred using actual SoC and battery thermistors to dynamically throttle this), but under load the device seems to be able to pull power from the charger as needed. When the screen is off, the battery charges at full current but beyond 80% usually slows down below the rated (Entering CV phase from CC) However, the battery chargers on all devices might be set to lower than 4A or whatever the rating is, and without the system load it won't hit the full input current.

Also note that typically devices (esp. Apple) expect 4.8V or so to keep increasing current draw. Most cables are quite thin and unable to meet this requirement, dropping under 4.7 at 1.5-2A. The charge controller will likely then throttle the current to stay above this threshold.

I have had Anker PowerLine (2?) USB A to Micro B cables that were able to handle 4A (rated 2.4) before falling to 4.85V (tested with 5 port usb charger modified to bypass load side switches so theoretically 12A output). Neither connectors, cable, or other components became hot or warm.

Most other cables can barely deliver 4.76V at 1.7 ish amperes.

This probably correlates with parent comment's experiences.

Related graphql implementations with similar concepts:

- https://www.graphile.org/postgraphile/

- https://hasura.io/

Love the idea of having APIs flow out of a single set of schema definitions. The Rails style of speccing a model, migrations, and controller/serializer or graphql types feels overly verbose and repetitive.

To me the biggest thing these groups could do to speed adoption is flesh out the feature development / test story. For instance, the postgraphile examples have development scripts that constantly clear out the DB and no tests. Compared to Rails, it's hard to imagine how you'd iterate on a product.

Are there other reasons this hasn't seen more widespread adoption? Is there some inherent architectural flaw or just not enough incremental benefit?
You are right about the chunk of the 15.3%--I read, meaning misread, it like 5 times the last couple of days. I also missed the threshold for low-earning self-employment being exempt skimming the 20 pages of the proposal. I guess my fears have subsided, although I believe I would still prefer some sort of coverage.
You still got 2 days a week off. Now you'll say those are days when other businesses are closed so you can't plan and interview but if everyone was working 4 days a week all businesses would be closed for 3 days. So you'd be back to square one.
Apple: Reading the Quarterly Leaves
The biggest issue with all of these "write a new operating system in my favorite language X" (where X is Ada, C, C++, D, Rust, etc) is that in almost all cases the operating system design slowly morphs into a buggy, half-baked version of an existing operating system. Rarely are there compelling new designs that are sufficiently better than what currently exists or was previously created in a different programming language.

While a different programming language can enable different levels of expressiveness, elegance, or nuance of control when interacting with hardware, ultimately it is the higher-level design concepts and design maturity that come into focus over time. (Does the design work in the real world? Is it "battle tested" and can address / overcome various failure modes?)

These forces have shaped the operating systems that we have today into what they are through years of heat and pressure. If you are contemplating writing a new operating system in your favorite language X, take a few years to study and understand how current operating systems solve real world problems and ask yourself how your ideas / designs will be as good as or better than what currently exists.
I travel to India every other month for my job. Most agriculture happens on small farms by poor and uneducated people. Introducing new technology and agricultural practices is difficult but is certainly underway in parts of the country. There is also a lack of political will to solve the problem in the particular case of Delhi and its neighboring state of Punjab, and as the parent comment suggested, there is very much a tendency to sow disinformation by those highest up.
> This particular issue is limited to Delhi

Great write-up! But, this issue is not limited to Delhi; the whole of north India is under severe pollution. Delhi gets highlighted the most because it's the capital of the country.
