Also, acknowledging the fact that, since I'm in bed trying to sleep, I can't act on these thoughts right now anyway, so I don't really need to have them right now (and trusting that if it's important, they will probably come up again at a more useful moment).
You shouldn't shun nice things, but you should definitely shun buying those things to prove anything to anyone. That is the disease that so many people (at least in the US) seem to have now worse than ever. Stop using the little money you have to prove to others that you have it. Isn't it funny how people will bankrupt themselves to try to make people think they aren't bankrupt?
> BTW almost all the laptops at home have been bought used (usually in Germany where offer is plenty).

Do you know a company online that sells these second hand laptops? Or do you buy from classifieds, individual to individual?
For points 1 and 2 at least, the UK has the Huawei Cyber Security Evaluation Centre where GCHQ can inspect all Huawei hardware as well as the source code, although it is run by former Huawei employees (overseen by GCHQ) so its independence is questionable.
This is a really good article, worth reading all the way through. For me, this was the line that sums it up:

> After Brexit, London sees itself as dependent on Beijing’s goodwill.
Statistically, your 18 year old would be much better off in a Vanguard broad market index fund. The chances that they’re going to pick 5 companies that outperform the market is pretty remote.
Same here. I never found a system that fit the way I wanted to work as well as Aperture did, so I quit bothering to drag around my DSLR. Then I quit bothering to offload pics from my phone. Then I quit bothering to take them in the first place.

Which is all a shame because I loved photography for a couple decades, and now I have small kids and I’m sure I’ll regret it, but it’s just such a pain in the ass to do these days if I don’t want my entire life tethered to services and data in the fuckin cloud.
>That is toothless in preventing corps (with money) from abusing individuals (who don't have the money to start litigation).

It's pretty simple to get the actual information in a lawsuit. Subpoena the service provider for the complete notice sent.

In most cases a lawsuit isn't needed. If you receive a false complaint and file a counternotice, the content gets restored 10-14 days later if there's no lawsuit filed.
developed a tool together with a colleague that ket anyone ask anonymous questions to the founders. We had the problem, that the founders wanted to get more people to ask questions in our all-hands meetings and me and my colleague thought it might be that a lot of people are afraid to ask them in front of a big crowd. So we created an easy to where anyone can submit questions anonymously and everyone can up and downvote them. We're both not working at the company anymore, but the tool is still used for 3years
> There is no material difference between Huawei and the Chinese Government.

this is false.
Not taking sides but what you described were the natural developments of "making advertisement more efficient", people found that by showing targeted ads they'd have to show less of them to get the same amount of new customers, therefore making advertisement cheaper and more efficient. If this is a net positive or negative for society is something I'll stay out of.
But how do you tell what is "actually creating value"? For instance, do movie producers do this, when they construct whole buildings and then knock them down a week later?
YMMV, but check Google Maps to see how many gay bars are there in Moscow.
I appreciate the response. It's a p20 pro. I realize that I could find a charger that's compatible with all of the devices, but the fact is that all of them claim to be USB-C, and I'm still not sure if I buy a third party charger from a trusted brand (e.g. Anker) if it will work with all devices.

Now imagine explaining your comment to a lay person!

> it probably needs 60W+ and an e-marked cable.

I wasn't even aware e marked cables were a thing. I guess I need something similar for correct Android auto support with my phone and my car?

Honestly, your comment, while incredibly helpful, explains how unclear and how much of a mess it is.
Odin's '"special" runtime' as you call it is extremely minimal and is still easy to swap out with your own, and also only gets used if you use those features.

Zig has a runtime of its own now since it has added coroutines (async/await) as a core feature, but that is still extremely minimal aw well.

Yeah but what of it? If you're 35 and live frugally ($3k/mo) you still need more than $1.3m to never work again, and that assumes you don't live longer than average.
This is the realization that has led me to prefer working for a big software company over entrepreneurship in the past few years. Unless you find the problem of entrepreneurship interesting in and of itself, it is very unlikely the projects you will be working on as an entrepreneur will be nearly as technically interesting as the kinds of work you'll be doing at a company working on a large scale product. It's unfortunate, entrepreneurship sounds more interesting than being a cog in a big machine, but in practice I think it usually isn't for technically minded people.

You don't unleash a whole new world, period. The old one still exists.

The only way I see us migrating away from our current gpg use cases is if all the integrations we use somehow went unsupported. There's simply no reason to assume the risk of inserting Keybase (or anyone else's) dependencies.

YES. It was an integrated part of an everyday DSLR workflow.

I think the parent comment was referring to adtech in particular, which I agree isn't inherently bad, but which currently has a model of:
1. Slurp up as much data as possible no matter how sensitive and no matter the societal cost.
2. Use that data purely to increase the efficiency of wasting an enormous chunk of the world's bandwidth and computing resources (anecdotally, something like 30% of my traffic before I started blocking everything at a dns level) _pushing_ ads to anyone who might match by any means necessary whether they want them or not.

I might even acquiesce to some form of push-based ads being broadly beneficial (e.g. for truly novel offerings), but for almost everything that currently shows up as an ad I would much rather be able to efficiently search for it and find it once I'm actually ready to buy than to be inundated with hundreds or thousands of worthless ads ahead of time in the off chance that they'll bring a particular product to the forefront of my mind and sway my purchasing decisions.

That's kind of the point of frameworks like async/await :) Adtech is using a polling system to try and demand my attention with a, let's say, 1% success rate, but we could cut down the noise 100x simply by awaiting my next purchasing decision.
I wonder how people become so deluded that a major news publication needs to tell them this. Surely if it were reasonably easy to become rich by refusing lattes, several people from your social circle would have done it already and you could just ask them.
I think the car rule is more often don't by a 50k car if you make 50k a year.

Also related, cars go down in value. They are cool to own but by no means an investment. They are a utility to get you around and more specifically to your job that actually does make you money. The biggest rule though they stated first is huge.
If you are making 300k a year, buy that 50k car or save up for a relatively "short while" and get a 100k car.
Among other reasons I canceled my subscription last night, Netflix's current data-driven culture is driving:

• Good shows to shut down,

• Terrible, Awful, No Good, Very Bad concepts ("The Goop Lab") to be approved—actually, this was the named reason for why I canceled; I actually wrote "The Goop Lab" in the Other cancellation box. https://globalnews.ca/news/6488433/goop-uk-health-warning-gw...

• Blockbusters to lapse,

• Fillers to be licensed.

It's just not worth the 15.99/mo I've been paying them anymore, which is unfortunate. Five years ago, originals had serious promise.
You can control the security risk without following US lead.

US and Five Eyes countries following US are banning Huawei for strategic reasons, not for technical reasons. Telecom infrastructure is strategic industry and US want's to prevent Chinese getting ahead. US can't compete directly because US is out from 4G/LTE/5G game and US based companies are only component providers (Qualcomm and others).

>but nevertheless permitted it to compete for up to 35 percent market share in the country’s access network—that is, its antennae and similar equipment.

There is magical thinking involved if someone thinks that base stations alone completely break national security. Mobile networks involve huge number of components. The components and the software in the mobile core network and services pose more risk than base stations. Interfaces are standardized and you can buy different components from different vendors.

European network operators (especially if they have government contracts) have silently limited what they buy from Huawei. Base stations and most hardware is OK. Operating services, network control, visitor and location registers, mobile switching centers, network monitoring, and rest of the software that deals with the core network can be bought from others. Many EU countries just "happen" to have one or two carriers with strategically shielded core networks without formally banning Huawei.
I commonly develop on Windows first, and thus support Windows as the main platform. My general philosophy is if it works on Windows, porting to nix is usually pretty simple.

One thing that did take some time was getting System V ABI support for the Odin compiler so that nix platforms could support C-ABI 100%.

As for VCVARSALL.BAT, there is work currently trying to remove the requirement for it once the compiler is built on Windows. However, Microsoft being what it is, it's quite annoying to get it working on everyone's machine correctly.
This seems like a silly article. No one is making pronouncements like "you should never ever buy a new car regardless of your income / wealth" or "not making small daily purchases like lattes is the cornerstone of a sound financial plan". What they are saying is that you should be aware of how much those purchasing habits ultimately cost you and make an informed decision. A lot of people who are not Kawhi Leonard never consider how such purchases impact their financial well being.

Agree?

Edit: This isn’t intended as a rude or rhetorical question. I’m really interested in your answer.
There is also no material difference between say Cisco and the American government. Or Siemens and the German government. Where does it end? The UK is, as of today, currently an independent nation and - on paper at least - nobody is its friend.

The Huawei furore is akin to saying "public WiFi is not secure so why are you using it?".

Honesrly, yes. It would be easier to explain to my partner which cable/device/charger combo she can use, and would be easier to find a replacement that I know will work.

For all intents and purposes, they _are_ incompatible already, they're just pretending to be.
Very much agree. I'd add that the reaction of the systemd developers to security and functionality bug reports has been...decidedly mixed, which is enough to make me very nervous.

For me personally, it's also that systemd keeps expanding and expanding, which both makes more things dependent on their security profile and reduces choice in the ecosystem. The number of different boot/init systems I might need to use is pretty limited and I might be OK with just one (especially since systemd /is/ really good at it). The number of DHCP clients, firewall systems, DNS clients, and so forth is decidedly not so limited, and results in a nasty choice of "use the systemd thing and hope it supports all the features you need" or "rip out the systemd thing and replace it and hope that works and continues to work" or "install something that sits on top of the systemd thing and thus has to interact with it in strange ways that may bite you unpredictably". Each of those is a recipe for a lot of Maalox moments, and it feels like the response to that concern is, "Aww, you're just being a worry-wart."
That's hilarious, because I've studied projective geometry for years. I am literally writing a paper based on projective geometry right now (applied to abstract algebra). Projective coordinates still gives you a three-dimensional object, because you identify vectors that are scalar multiples of each other.

Dumb question: why is Huawei the only available provider of 5G technology? Are all other companies too far away?
Chinese government criticized UK's recent decision.

- hard cap on the market share (35%)

- no Huawei parts in core part of network

- no Huawei in sensitive locations (military, energy)

- Huawei declared as the only provider that poses national security to the UK

It's not a complete ban but it sure is a blow to Huawei who has been expanding globally unopposed in the past decade.

In the North of England an expensive car might cost as much as a house.

It also said sorry for offending people very quickly afterwards, and more to the point has tiny and declining attendance and minimal impact on attitudes towards homosexual tourists. The idea that it's more hostile and influential on the subject of homosexuality than, say, the Catholic church in most Catholic majority countries doesn't really stack up.
Serious question, what is keybase? It started as a identity key verification service (which I use), then went on to be an encrypted file store (which I use), then went to be a chat service (again I still use it though it has its issues), then they added some weird crypto currency thing (feels scammy), and now they're adding another file serving option (which looks really cool). So, what do I call keybase when I'm trying to get people to use it?

Not really.

I’d guess that most people whom you’d assume to be fancy white upper class folks are broke, and many of the poor brown people whom you pitty are more prosperous than you think.

In my life I can think of a relative whose family was living it up: fancy house and cars in a desirable suburb, kids went to great colleges, had great stuff, etc. It was all a show, fueled by home equity and debt. Now they are retired and living in subsidized housing on Social Security, and the BMWs were replaced by a 15 year old Civic.

The I look at a gentlemen who recently passed away at my church. He was a custodian and handyman, his wife is an LPN. He left a significant legacy to his kids and a school, and by all accounts led a fulfilling and happy life, with many people whom he had touched in some way.
It's not like the masses aligning with one side or the other is a new invention, it's how politics works and always has worked. So, in a way, what's "causing it" is humanity being stupid and measures against it are attempts at managing stupidity. Nobody wants to hear that. Because everybody is too stupid to drop their ego.

That being said, there's about three articles a week that blame the unchecked spread of stupidity on the internet for the uptick in bizarre fringe ideologies. And they're probably right. One of the best explanations of how this happens I recently found in a comment thread – unfortunately I don't remember where (I assume tildes.net). In short, social media tries to find patterns in what people like and documents/encourages them. Content creators then try to make money from following those trends very quickly, which artificially accelerates and grows them. It used to take a while for some random, weird ideology take over, now it only takes one viral youtube video or tweet, even if people initially just watch it ironically.

It's no different than it always was, it just runs way too fast.

Carp – A statically typed Lisp, without a GC, for Real-Time applications
This post is so out of touch with reality I don't know where to begin. I also work at Google, making a similar amount as you do. To suggest that all you have to do to make $400K+ is "just know what to do, know where to be, and be willing to put in a lot of time and effort" is just ludicrous.

I guarantee you, and anyone else reading this, that with very little information I can predict with high accuracy how much money you make.

- Where you were born

- How much money your parents make

- Your health status at birth

- What college you went to, if applicable

- What you majored in while in college, if applicable

- How much your prioritize making money

I hate to say it, but the #1 predictor of your income is your parents' own situation. So if you want to make more money, be born to better parents. They will gift you the health, genetic advantages and socioeconomic circumstances that will statically make you succeed.

For everyone else, understand the rules of the game and bend them as much as possible. One thing I hate about working at Google is the sheer amount of out of touch engineers here. Everyone is so nice and friendly, but as soon as you talk about anything related to money you can see that some people are living, in a matter of speaking, on another planet.

EDIT: Looks like the post was edited to be removed. Basically the OP was saying he made 400K+ at Google and their significant other made another 200K as a car salesperson and they are both "run of the mill" at their jobs. The OP then goes on to say that if you try hard enough it's pretty easy to get to the position their at.

Ironically the reaction of removing the post is exactly the same sort of reaction I get in person in when money or money related matters is ever the subject of a conversation with someone who is an engineer at Google. If a non-engineer is in the conversation the engineer will just say life isn't fair and leave.
