Quite a good question.

I think the most broadly applicable answer now is simply that including those development tools usually requires less-effort than not doing so.

That's a legacy from Smalltalk-80 application development at Xerox Special Information Systems (XSIS, back in the mid 1980s):

— "My response … is to remind the customer that the system is designed so that they can easily and freely change it. This concept is a new one to many people because traditional programming environments carefully protect system code from modification. The Smalltalk-80 environment treats system code and user code alike. Mold the system into an environment that suits your needs. The researchers designed the system so that they could experiment with creating new systems; the changeability of all of the system parts is a necessary attribute of this research."

p501 "Smalltalk - The Interactive Programming Environment", 1984.

Of course, some Smalltalk implementations did things differently:

- Dolphin Smalltalk could ship applications packaged as MSWin dlls

- Resilient Smalltalk used a completely separate Eclipse development environment to connect over TCP/IP to a VM+image embedded-system

I hoped that people would use the sentences I proposed on that page but that never happened.

What is helpful is that when people raise a concern I can recognize it more quickly and show them it is clearly my flaw. This doesn’t happen often but it happened last week.
Note that she made a similar promise before which she didn't end up keeping: https://www.greenoptimistic.com/angela-merkel-electric-cars-...

Despite her promise, we have 196 thousand electric cars in Germany now according to Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_car_use_by_country
It depends on where these chargers are located. Areas where people own cars and park those cars on the street, that's where they're needed. They aren't needed in suburbs where people can plug them into their own homes. They're also not needed in areas where people don't own cars.

I guess I inadvertently started a culture war where people without cars and driveways are really touchy and go on attack. Sorry about that.

Right. Let me see if I got this right- Apple TV is on first, Apple TV is on second, Apple TV is on third, and AppleTV+ is pitching.
Honestly I don't understand @cciresi's position. As far as a I know anti-boycott regulations have primarily (only?) been used to prevent US companies from not doing business with Isreal. China & Russia are geopolitical rivals to the US and I don't see any sort of risk of anti-boycott regulations being applied in restricting business with residents of those countries. I guess you could say there is a risk that could change, but that seems hypothetical to the extreme and realistically irrelevant to worry about from a risk perspective.

And this isn't discriminating on nationality or national origin, it is on the nation you currently live in. Employers decide not to hire employees living in other countries all the time, it's the most prevalent choice (i.e. US companies only hiring employees living in the US). I don't see why doing this because a customer you've considered critical has asked for it is any more legally risky that having done it for other reasons, assuming we discount the anti-boycott argument.

This is all with the huge caveat of I'm not a lawyer, just giving my perspective based on how I've seen these laws/regulations applied in the past.
> Browsers have been trying this for a long time but its not simple.

I didn't say it was gonna be easy. I said it was necessary. This is a perpetual arms race. If content blockers can maintain their huge blocklists, browsers should also be able to maintain their own counter-measures to abusive websites. Browser vendors created and standardized the APIs that websites are now exploiting. I expect them to clean it up.

> then websites just check how fast the local data store is to check if it is on disk or in memory.

Making both calls equally slow should prevent this particular side channel attack.
I feel like that sits too closely to what product managers should be doing, rather than shadow managing eng teams that don't have enough heirarchy in them.

I brought ROS to FIRST robotics back when I was in high school and I still think it continues to change the game for how people work with robots [1, 2] The modularity / plug-n-play nature of the system makes swapping sensors (which often have ROS driver) or algorithms that much easier.

We don't have decades to wait for building stocks to re-absorb the expelled CO2.

(Setting aside concrete carbonation, there are better materials to use for building construction. Concrete is a poor insulator, and sourcing other materials will reduce secondary and tertiary energy consumption. Also, buildings can generate energy, but not if they are made of concrete.)

I understand that you want to rationalize concrete use via carbonation, but consider the bigger picture. There is simply not a sustainable future in which we continue to build everything with concrete. Perhaps if decision-makers of yesteryear had considered these scientific properties (along with climate change), this could have been included in a comprehensive strategy to limit GHG emissions, but we are well beyond that point and must eliminate CO2 emissions now.
TTLS isn't a thing.

You're argument about keep alive makes no sense. You're confusing the nginx documentation. 100 is the number of default connections it will hold open. 60 is the default timeout. Also it's sent as an HTTP response to the client in the headers...

Here you need to read up: https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html#kee...

The timeout only matters if you're not making requests. Setting a low keep alive will actually result in more DNS requests...doh

Next you're going to tell me you only write blocking code and use a thread per connection...

I guess you haven't created many 10k concurrent app servers.

What technology has the US actually pioneered in the last 20 years that doesn’t involve tracking people in new and terrifying ways just to serve them ads? I wouldn’t exactly call the US a Mecca of enterprise and innovation when most people don’t even have $400 saved for an emergency and the only thing “innovation” does is enrich a small handful of people at the expense of the masses. I’d rather be more like Europe.
You misunderstand. My business develops software, including software that runs on networked devices, and we have never had a client ask for phoning home like that. In fact, it has often been a requirement that the device could operate with no Internet access at all, because a lot of security-conscious customers such as those in finance or healthcare have strict rules about this.
Oh yeah. (Two short article quotes below.) Many of the most-valuable sites I traverse looking for valuable information* are 'primitive' in the good way this author is promoting.

On the other hand, there are the endless 'corporate glitz' sites which look great but convey no immediately useful content (e.g. RSS links). If they do have it, their slick emptiness endeavors to obscure it. [Disclosure: I admire Zeldman].

What about ++Apple TV?
I disagree. If you don't get to the root cause, no matter how uncomfortable, then you don't learn what you can from the tragedy and that just compounds the loss. Not that I really expect to get to the bottom here, but I can't suppress that curiosity even perhaps when it's warranted.
I think we're already there.

Site I manage run separate VLANS for admin (switches, APs, etc) and Internet-of-Things, and both of those VLANS are default deny on outbound. That rule blocks a fair amount of traffic.

I wonder if part of the answer is better tools in firewalls for this sort of thing. Easily tagging "unstrusted device" or something perhaps.
It's still not there yet. There are APIs now available for developers, but there is no way to react seamlessly to NFC tags in background. For example, it's impossible to put an NFC tag on a nightstand and run some automations when you put your phone there before sleep. You will have to tap a button to authorize the action.

I do understand security implications that lead to that decision, but it makes the whole process really cumbersome to use for wide range of applications.
To be honest, ROS came in to offer a good balance between modularity, freedom of design and standardization. What it tries to do is not rocket science: make different package communicate using a pre-agreed packet format, and can be done in many languages.

Accepting any customer serves the customers interest.

According to customer requests that their sensitive information not be placed in a situation where it could be relatively easily accessed by state actors ... serves the customers interest.

That’s not contradictory, except in the most superficial sense of “but we have open arms for everyone”.
It really depends on the software professional.

I do, but I have a terrible memory. I use flashcards to remember names of technologies that are important but that I don't use daily. I create flashcards when I make a mistake in programming, so I'm less likely to make that mistake again. I create flashcards every time I look up information, so that I keep it in mind.

If you have a normal memory, you probably don't need it as much.
100% of my rollbacks were like this:

* Deploy new code in new VMs.

* Route some prod traffic to the new nodes.

* Watch the nodes misbehave somehow.

* Route 100% of the prod traffic back to old nodes (which nobody tore down).

Rollback complete.

In the case of normal deployment, 100% of prod traffic would eventually be directed to new modes. After a few hours of everything running smoothly, the old nodes would be spun down.

I work in tech and any company with a website calls itself a tech company.

Saying you are a physics company as soon as you use advanced materials does not seem that far-fetched from where I stand.

And the criterion of "these companies competitive advantage depend partly on recent physics research" is a pretty good one that may indeed include drilling companies and geological exploration.
Fair point. I don't think you need to bring in the gun analogy. If you're definitely not going to have sex, you don't need any STD prevention.

Citation very much needed. I do a lot of work in this part of the industry. If you want to even get into the conversation with some of the big financial services, healthcare providers and so on, you need to comply with their standard rules, which might have a checklist hundreds of points long, mostly non-negotiable. You're not going to get those deals with mandatory telemetry no matter who your boss plays golf with.
We already have lots and lots of building stock carbonating right now.

But yes, building has accelerated, so we are not in a steady state.

As an interesting aside, tossing lime into the oceans might help. Ignoring the energy costs, once inside the ocean the lime apparently binds twice as much carbon as was released when making it.

That process also helps against ocean acidification.

So in order for the whole thing to make carbon sense, you'd need to use stranded energy that wouldn't be used for anything else and doesn't release more carbon into the atmosphere, like solar power in a remote desert. And the balance gets even better, if you manage to capture the carbon release by the quicklime making process.

As far as motorcycles, in my opinion, the key is to remember that while motorcycles commonly have much higher power-to-weight ratios than cars, the simple fact they have only two tires means they are handicapped compared to cars when braking and cornering. So weaving and speeding is one thing, but don't tailgate, especially because something can go between the wheels of the car in front of you and surprise you.

I sold my motorcycle without ever having an accident and then I had two incidents in my car in the next few years where I would have been dead on a motorcycle because of other drivers' stupidity. So I'm probably not going back to riding.
No, if for no other reason than the mechanism by which spin alignment increases the efficiency of electrolyzing water can’t be compared to the mechanism by which magnetism of certain components of blood would allow a magnet to improve blood flow (the latter mechanism does not exist, to be clear).

I disagree. I think that the use of Python in ROS is the best of both worlds. ROS makes it easy to do sane-ish IPC even for folks new to programming and enables them to offload heavy numerical processing or real time tasks out to C++ or even other boards on your robot.

Python sits by handling state machines (decision making) and similar logic. It’s also great in experimental code that folks want to change often (opencv prototyping).

I don’t like the lack of a type system and have run into easily preventable bugs with python but in my case the trade off with developer productivity was worth it.
Hah! We finally found the one-percenters!

The results suggest that magnetism catalyzes electrolysis by temporarily aligning oxygen electron orbits. There is negligible effect otherwise; if electrolysis happened in ones' wrists, you'd merely experience extreme agony for a while, before exploding.

There is also clear, well-documented evidence that homeopathic magnets have no effect beyond a placebo.

That seems to be sort-of true, but mostly in the sense that renewables are getting cheaper. Fossil fuels don't seem to be getting that much more expensive. Mostly because the long run supply is actually fairly elastic.

> That is, in let’s say a drug testing experiment, you give some people the drug and they recover. That doesn’t tell you much until you give some other people a placebo drug you know doesn’t work – but which they themselves believe in – and see how many of them recover. That number tells you how many people will recover whether the drug works or not. Unless people on your real drug do significantly better than people on the placebo drug, you haven’t found anything.
