This calculator is either giving completely wrong outputs for the Glacier pricing, or it's secretly throwing in some of the other costs like data transfer/API request costs.

For example, for 50 GB it's showing a cost per month of $1.15 for Standard, which is correct (Standard is priced at ~$0.023/GB). For Deep Glacier, it's giving pricing of $1.05
(which is wildly incorrect, as the price for Deep Glacier is ~$0.00099/GB, meaning the monthly cost should say $0.05, or less than 5% of the Standard cost).

oh yeah. i'm just saying, Apple's audience doesn't necessarily care about tech specs.
Agreed, interns are extremely expensive and anyone who thinks that they are cheap labor is not aware of the day to day details. Only reason to ever have interns is if you want to give back to the community and grow your senior talent. You might end up with some loyal developers that know your stack, but I wouldn't bank on it. They certainly have no place in an early stage startup.
Usually, destroying some of the supply, but holding the flow of money fixed, means that the remaining items will be bid up. If instead prices are falling, it means that the secondary financial effects of the real shock are exceeding the impact of the real shock itself. If the flow of money is slowing down, one should create more money to avoid worsening the real shock through financial reverberations.
Who said anything about humans? My original comment certainly didn't.
Fair point. I wish I could explain, but don't want to try. For the record, I've been knee deep in Agile.

I am being asked to do "proper structured agile" by writing up many JIRA tasks in advance of learning what best to write, and I find it funny

Yeah, it's hilarious how people are being told to do something in the name of "Agile" that is almost completely opposite of the spirit of the Agile Manifesto. sigh

This is another example of our economy being so interconnected that it's really hard to tell what is and isn't essential. If you lack enough "non-essential" goods for your business, then your business doesn't work either. I just hope that the businesses relying on machines for their output aren't reliant on some obscure parts that will be impossible to source if they break.
I doubt it, archlinux wiki is full of issues. More importantly, I made them all work by finding answers in stackoverflow specific to my drivers. Which means other people who need the same wifi driver experienced the same issue.
My org was like that when it was 20 people on one floor doing pretty much their own thing in groups of 2-4.

Now it’s 100 people across two countries, expected to collaborate closely with sibling orgs. Management philosophy has shifted to “we will ask a few handpicked experts to write down the best way to do a thing, and then everyone else is a machine for executing that procedure.”

If software engineering worked like that, we would have automated it.

Language is a big issue with integration.
It's not that people don't speak English or High German, it's just that to truly integrate you need to speak the local language.

And learning a dialect without an accepted written form, and thus no textbook to speak of is not easy.
How come the division is almost the same as the shifting? Is the CPU pipelining the operations between iterations of the loop or something? There is a direct data-dependency in those operations but not between iterations so perhaps that's it?

AFAIK there's no fused add-shift op that could be used.
> You've set up an argument that can never be refuted, for reasons I've explained.

I'm arguing that the selection mechanisms they're choosing to use are bad compared to what they could and should be using, namely, random sampling as was used in Germany. Yes, those still have problems as you've mentioned, but they are much better overall. I'm sure there are reasons these studies didn't use those mechanisms -- some bad, like that it's hard to get a good random sample, and it's easy to run facebook ads or camp out at a grocery store, and probably some good, like that it's easier enough that it makes results available sooner.

I'm also arguing that because of this bias, and because we are now seeing a few of these studies with similar biases despite different methodologies, and because, of the papers we could read (namely just Stanford's), the accounting for selection bias is weak, it's risky to make statements about trends indicated by these papers.

You could refute my argument by explaining how these not-very-random selection mechanisms could be effectively accounted for post-selection. I've asked you to do this several times, and you have not done so.

I am not making an argument that can never be refuted. I'm asking you to refute it, and I've given you one potential argument, and you have chosen not to do so, repeatedly.

I'm sorry, but in this exchange, the person putting forth arguments that amount to vague dismissals that can't be refuted was, um, not me.
Nobody you replied to said they shouldn't be allowed to criticize Agile.

The criticism in this comment thread was that their advice wasn't actionable, not that actionability was a prerequisite in order to criticize Agile at all. There was no false dilemma here because there was no choices provided (false or otherwise), merely a weakness in an argument raised.
I know that good penmanship is no longer necessary, and my own handwriting is rather inelegant due to reluctance to practice when I was a child, but I can’t help but feel a little sad that beautiful handwriting is rarely seen anymore.

> Yeah, having money is nice,

As someone who was broke for many years and now is less broke (cash is flowing, there's money in my accounts, but I'm deeply in negative net worth due to student debt), I think you're understating the issue, vastly.

Simply put, money is freedom. If you have it, you can do things people who don't have it can't. If you have enough of it, you can do just about anything. And, I'm not necessarily talking about luxuries, I'm talking about stuff like:

* If you have enough money in the bank, an unexpected car repair is a hassle, rather than a disaster.

* If you can afford to buy a home, then you don't have to worry about being evicted or not having a lease renewed.

* If you have enough money, you can send your kids to a good school and get them off to the best possible start in life.

* If you have an absurd amount of money, you don't need to worry about going bankrupt from getting sick.

As I said, none of these things are luxuries, but, to reach "don't have to worry about medical bankruptcy" levels, or even "I get to own a home and nobody can tell me I can't paint my front door pink" levels takes a huge amount of money relative to the median income today.

> I learned how to live poor, and discovered I could still have a meaningful life while being broke.

That doesn't mean being broke is great, good, or even not all that bad. It just means you've gotten used to it.
Let's not go on generic tangents please; especially not nitpicky ones.

This is the sort of thing where in person people would chuckle and move on, but on the internet it leads to a cascade. We all have associations that we can't quite resist adding, and pretty soon it dominates the thread, an outcome no one actually wants.
How, exactly? In context, a treatment being "interesting to look at" is interesting because you think it might work. Isn't that what "promising" means in the same context? You seem to be hiding behind the presidents imprecision here. I genuinely don't understand how someone could look at the video of that press conference and think the president was not celebrating the idea of possibly finding a cure by injecting disinfectants into people's bodies.

For me, it's not that Windows is bad, or even that Linux is somehow technically better.* The cool thing about Linux (Fedora or whatever else!) is that it's the operating system that belongs to us, the people. That's amazing.

I have no judgment at all against people who have other priorities and, like, just need to get their job done.

(* I mean, it is, obvious,y but that's not the point)
This is not an accurate characterization of the studies.

The well conducted studies that show chloroquine as having an affect on novel coronavirus have all be in vitro. The in vivo studies that have been done that showed anecdotal evidence of effect were poorly conducted, including doing things such as excluding people from the results that died from cv19 while taking chloroquine.

Better in vivo studies have showed that hydroxychloroquine on it's own had no impact on whether or not someone needed to go on a ventilator, and resulted in a nearly 3x increase in all cause mortality. Hydroxychloroquine + azithromycin did not show a significant increase in all cause mortality, but also had no statistically significant impact on whether or not the patient would need to go on a ventilator, and overall mortality was similar to the control group.

Other studies have had to halt due to the number of patients dying due to cardiac issues.

If anything, all large studies with proper controls are showing that chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine are ineffective at treating cv19 at best, and deadly in their own right at worst.

Intuitively, I don't think so. The steel is colder than the actual oven, what it does better is transfer heat by conduction into the dough (better than stone at that). That only works if it's touching the pizza.
Yes, I'm not saying the opposite. What I'm saying is that Sweden's strategy is broad and long-term. We're isolating the old and fragile as of now.
Of course if you have baking soda and/or baking powder (depending on what you're making), there are a lot of quick breads, scones, biscuits, etc. that you can make without yeast. I'm doing both yeast and non-yeast baking. I do have a sourdough starter although I also have yeast which can make things a bit easier.

What's a few avoidable deaths between friends, after all?

There are multiple active outbreaks in crowded factories and other facilities, just like an Amazon fulfillment warehouse. They do not have necessary safety equipment and procedures in place yet. Forcing people to show up to work under these conditions is murder. They could fix it, though.

A starting point would be Amazon providing tests and ensuring that everyone has been tested before returning to work, along with ensuring everyone has masks and gloves and enough time to thoroughly wash their hands throughout their shift. Press reports up until this point and complaints from employees suggest none of that is consistently the case.
> making progress (or it's lack) visible to management.

The challenge is that management is only looking through a small window and everything from promotions to raises to favours are dished out based on that window.

Anything not in view of that window immediately obviously becomes useless to one's advancement in a company, so the window better cover everything which matters and it usually doesn't.
Direct from the source, here is what Amazon is doing:

> We’ve extended the increased hourly pay outlined below through May 16. We are also extending double overtime pay in the U.S. and Canada. These extensions increase our total investment in pay during COVID-19 to nearly $700 million for our hourly employees and partners. In addition, we are providing flexibility with leave of absence options, including expanding the policy to cover COVID-19 circumstances, such as high-risk individuals or school closures. We continue to see heavy demand during this difficult time and the team is doing incredible work for our customers and the community.
-That's most kind of you, I really appreciate it - however, I do have a sourdough starter available and can (and do!) make all the bread we need - I was just amused at /our/ supply chain having a flour surplus and no yeast, whereas in the UK it appeared to be the other way around...
I think both with coffee and beer there are two classes of establishment - the average city cafe or bar, and then the specialty "artisanal" establishment in big cities. My guess would be that the coffee at an average Italian town square bar is better than the same coffee at a coffee shop in Spain or France or the USA. However, it's not going to be anywhere on par with a specialty coffee shop in Manhattan that has searched the world and handpicked its bean flavor profiles to perfection.

It's the same thing with beer and Germany. The average beer in a random town brewery somewhere in Germany is tastier than a Budweiser, but as a beer lover, I would much rather end up at a beer bar with a 100 different beers on tap in a place like London or New York.

The interesting twist with Germany is that the same beer purity laws that originally allowed them to become a beer leader in the world are now holding them back in the craft beer revolution.
GP was asking if the assertion is being made that overall aggregate demand has increased, and if so why.

ie. if people are baking more and buying bread less.
To be fair, there are a lot of engineers on the market with a small-but-positive value under a structured process who would be totally useless in an environment like this. I can see why it might be rational to managers.
> It's totally inappropriate (dangerous) for the POTUS to speculate on TV during a pandemic.

He is not speculating. Lets face it. He is a crook and a total retard. Idiocracy happend.
You just omitted everything, for example that the republic had 8 different Coup d'etat and that it often needed to use the army to repress their own civilians, restrict rights in many regions and became ungovernable during most of its time. Neither the Republic was a free democratically elected nor the dictatorship was fascist during its whole time in the power. And still the fascist dictatorship was still terrible with no doubt, but missing the key facts misses the point of history which should be to honor the truth to avoid repeating those mistakes again.

You are still judging it in the frame of the modern world. Do not romanticize the past by judging only parts of the story projecting modern ideas on them.

Saludos Roberto.
All that matters is the delta, physical and social sicknesses are reducing the number of health care workers everywhere.
Interestingly, the NSO Group claims to not operate at all in the USA. I can imagine the geopolitical optics of why they might make that claim, but isn't it worse than that? With that claim as a pretext, this sounds like it meets every element of espionage, other than the requirement that the spying be detrimental to the USA's national security, and we don't know yet what data NSO Group was collecting or who they were targeting.
You can’t answer the most basic questions:

-why did Chinese police get involved and force Dr. Li to remove social media posts about the virus and sick patients?

-who were the Chinese Authorities, by name, who represented their “preliminary investigation”

-what steps did WHO take to independently verify what they were told by Chinese Authorities about person to person transmission before posting this information to the public on Twitter?

Edit:

No offense but you seem like one of China’s paid trolls, throughout this thread you are accusing everyone who mentions facts of “moving the goal posts” and otherwise attacking “the West”. The West didn’t give the WHO knowingly false information and use their political power to have the WHO tweet the falsehoods to the public with #TheWest
Is it a goal of production vs debug build that the data structures that you define in your program are always the same?

I could see some kinds of funny differences in behavior between debug / production builds, if for a debug build a particular thing is boxed, but in production it isn't.
No, just saying that's an option to consider, that's all. If the current code is super small, it can be a quick change.

There are different kinds of "simple". SQLite sure is simple in several dimensions, but then you need a writable file system for it, and file locking is not an issue for your usecase etc.

I consider my set it and forget it setup to be simple, and I haven't had to do any maintenance in 3 years, though Firebase is not exactly what you'd call "simple".

> EU politics are just further to the left on the universal scale.

But I don't think this is actually true or a useful statement. Many aspects of American politics are more left-wing than their European counterparts; anarchism or libertarianism, for example, roughly defined as antipathy toward the state, is often considered left-wing and is far more prevalent in the US. Left-wing politics in contemporary Europe seems to almost always include a strong state role.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libertarian_anarchism

As I said, I don't think any sort of universal right-left dichotomy is useful. It also doesn't factor in non-traditional political thinkers, like say, Nietzsche, who could not be accurately described as right, left, or anywhere in between.
This is an opportunity to reduce use of one-use packaging. Simply ship the flour in a gaylord to the point of distribution and have people bring their own canisters, tare them, and fill them.
Tabletop Simulator (mentioned in TFA) is ideal for that, it can play most if not all of those. We've played Monopoly, Sorry, The Game of Life, Uno, Clue, and Catan as well as your standard card games (hearts, rummy, etc.). We've got a couple "classics" queued up for this weekend too. The first game was getting used to the controls but it was very smooth sailing after that.

It's basically a "sandbox" gave that can support, in theory, any board game.
I like the design, but is anyone choosing storage based on price? I can see comparing cloud-to-cloud, but within a single cloud the type of data (blob, block, database, etc...) and the frequency of r/w prescribe the storage you should be using regardless of price.

I just don't see a scenario where I say I'm just going to move from EFS to EBS or such because its 8% of the price. I chose EFS for a reason in the first place.

Not meaning offense, I'm just unsure of usefulness. Appreciate all the content you provide though! Didn't realize who you were :)

> To put this in more concrete terms: an N-bit adder involves N 1-bit stages to add each bit, and then a 1-bit carry network on top of that, which has N stages in it. So overall, it's O(N) in terms of hardware.

O(N) adders cannot meet the latency demands of modern high-frequency CPUs. The actual complexity of adders in real CPUs is usually O(N²).

Spoiler alert: they didn't succeed (from Wikipedia) On May 29, 2014, two-way communication with the spacecraft was reestablished by the ISEE-3 Reboot Project, an unofficial group[7] with support from the Skycorp company.[8][9][10] On July 2, 2014, they fired the thrusters for the first time since 1987. However, later firings of the thrusters failed, apparently due to a lack of nitrogen pressurant in the fuel tanks.[11][12] The project team initiated an alternative plan to use the spacecraft to "collect scientific data and send it back to Earth",[13] but on September 16, 2014, contact with the probe was lost.[14]

Adding to the list of small, single-developer-multi-year 2d games: Starsector[1]. It's a modern descendant of a whole set of top down shooters (I found it looking for a modern Escape Velocity, but it's quite different). The developer is very active and the modding community is huge - lots of total conversions and expansions have been created by the community.

I've been full time remote for several years. What I've found is that it can ever so slightly erode some people's ability to communicate clearly with each other, or be sure that they have. This leads to meetings that go on longer as people feel a need to restate and reconfirm, code reviews that go on a bit longer, some duplicated effort as people look over each others' shoulder to make sure they "got the message", and so on. Nothing major, but it kind of builds up. A little small talk can go a long way toward rebuilding that confidence, and it's harder to do when latency and VC annoyances are in the way. I've seen this play out many times even on long-term fully-remote teams BTW. Getting together at conferences or "summits" is often the glue holding them together.

I know that's still not a strong argument against remote work. It's pretty weak, but it's the best I can do. Overall, I think remote work is at least as good as in-person work for many people.
Thank you! It's surprising that mypy can typecheck based on string keys like that. Cool!
I don't think you know what a conspiracy is. People don't speak up precisely because they are alone and don't want to be shunned by the echo chamber. If you've heard about it so many times, why do you think you know best and deny the observations of others?
