Exploring Kernel Networking: BPF Hook Points, Part 1
The only reason an airline would need a bailout is if they have acquired significant debt that they are unable to service. If the airline is being 'bailed out' what's really happening is the airline's creditors are being bailed out.

The banks can afford to take a haircut on their debt and they can renegotiate terms. Of course, many of the creditors might be unsecured bond holders, which, I'm unsure of how the scam works in Germany, but in the US that effectively is some crappy fund you own in your 401k. So the banks smartly package and sell debt to idiots (common people with a pension/retirement account).

The government has to keep the worthless bond market afloat because everyone's invested in the scam. That helps keep interest rates low so the mega corporations can get free money from bonds that bear interest well below market rates.
How nice of the governments to help businesses afford to eat instead of people.

There is no reason assistance to people has to go through business. The reason governments do that is because leaders own equity in the current hierarchy and definitely don’t want to disturb that by giving the lower classes leverage to demand better terms.
I think you just proved the parent post's point.
In all seriousness, the way wealth inequality is measured wouldn't tell you that in the first place. You'd have to look at consumption inequality, which would include stuff like Larry Ellison's yachts (on the "high inequality" side) and perhaps poor people's final consumption resulting from these donations (on the "low inequality" side).

PR campaigns is my cynical guess both positive from Microsoft and negative from FUD slingers. Since Microsoft outright betrayed their customers in the past but Apple stood in the way of the "right to backdoor".

This intentionally ignores 100 years of oppression and institutional racism that was the actual powder keg. The verdict was just the striking of the tinder.

This looks great, and I plan to try it out. Looks like a FOSS competitor to Windows Journal but much better.

It does not (at least based on reading the readme and looking at the feature list) support pasting images, file attachments, or audio recordings, so I can' t directly migrate to it from OneNote but it certainly has handled the hard part (inking system on pages, saved to a local filesystem) and the PDF markup feature looks nifty.

Lots of legitimate questions about statistical significance, but it's strong enough that Fauci likes it[1], which tells me it can't all be bunk (given how cautious he's been about *quine):

> White House health advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci said Wednesday that data from a coronavirus drug trial testing Gilead Sciences’ antiviral drug remdesivir showed “quite good news” and sets a new standard of care for Covid-19 patients.

> Speaking to reporters from the White House, Fauci said he was told data from the trial showed a “clear cut positive effect in diminishing time to recover.”

The very first time my company farmed me out to work onsite with a client. Day 1, Job 1: download the client's website code and get it running on my laptop.

... It just wouldn't work. Everything I tried - failed. Everything else on my laptop was working fine, except this code. Everyone else who had ever downloaded the code had managed to get it working on their machines within a couple of hours. Colleagues working onsite with me tried to help, but everything they tried - failed. Finally the decision was taken to reset my laptop to factory defaults and reinstall everything. That took up half of Day 2. Tried to get the client's site running - failed! Things were beginning to get really embarrassing - all this was happening in full view of the clients. In desperation, my company called me back to their offices and issued me with a new laptop. Back onsite, the code downloaded ... and worked first time!

Turned out that the issue was that my hard drive filesystem had been setup (not by me!) as case-sensitive, and the client code included a file with an all-caps filename, which the code called using a lowercase string. Almost lost my job over that one.

My one and only attempt to edit Wikipedia was to redact a statement on the article about the Semantic Web that had recently been changed to note that someone named Dr. Foch was attempting to weaponize the semantic web in support of a Chinese takeover of the world. My edit was immediately removed for not having a valid reference...nevermind that the original note didn't either.
What's notably absent are descriptions of problems with versioning interfaces, failures from network unreliability, or problems managing connecting infrastructure, or poor delineation of service boundaries leading to undesired change dependencies--which is to say it seems like they executed well. There's no sign they fell into common pitfalls.

There are definitely some good insights here that I don't often read about. The idea that with a sufficient number of microservices (say 50+) you not only treat your instances as-cattle-not-pets you have to treat the service types en-masse as-cattle-not-pets. This requires more automation and organized management as pointed out by the need for tuned autoscaling rules. This requires continued investment into automating things you would do manually if you had 50- services.

The other thing to consider is that going to microservices and back to a monolith is not necessarily a failure. Microservices are good for periods of high change velocity, once a platform is mostly built requiring much less new development consolidation completely makes sense. At all points, we're solving for impedance mismatch, whether that's the org structure, velocity of changes, or numbers of developers vs numbers of deployed units.

No, we'll see the degree to which Alphabet is exposed to the pandemic closures — which as you said, objectively happened.

A key detail from the Alphabet earnings: there appeared to be different performance trajectories for the brand and direct response components of their advertising. Direct response continued to have substantial year-on-year growth throughout the entire quarter — can be explained by brands now directly reaching people at home under quarantine. Brand advertising growth accelerated in the first 2 months of the quarter, but began to experience a headwind in mid-March. Snap's earnings call appeared to include the same observation, from Evan Spiegel: "In the short-term, we are shifting sales resources and pulling forward some investments in direct response to better serve the advertisers who are trying to reach our audience during this time…".

Additionally, Alphabet obviously also makes its money through Google Cloud Platform, whose compute usage will continue to pick up as more and more people consume online content at home. The net argument is that, even in Q2, Alphabet might come out looking stable because it is not as exposed to the downsides of COVID as, say, Twitter or Facebook.

THAT is what I mean when I say "we'll see".

I think there's an element of truth to the engineers' claims. Working on different code bases means there are a lot of things you would otherwise need to talk about that now you don't. It's very much the case that you still need your interfaces to be clear (in fact, clearer!) but those discussions can be somewhat isolated, so more work can proceed asynchronously. Just how isolated depends on how exact (and correct) the specifications are, which is a question of trading up-front work against interruption.

The other aspect is a lot of older luxury cars were also very well built, and older economy cars were some real bare-bones shitboxes.

My father enjoyed driving his Mercedes, so I figured I ought to enjoy a German luxury car as well. I expected to pay a certain premium on parts, and obviously for premium fuel and synthetic oil, but that I'd get a much more solid feeling car in return.

The problem is, the Mercedes he drove were from the 80s and 90s, so parts markup aside, they were basically Toyota reliable.

The German car I bought was from the mid-2000s, and nowhere near as well built or reliable as a 90s Mercedes, even in present day.

I'd even owned a 1986 Mercedes that was still reliable in 2010, I'd also owned a 1992 Mercedes that was also reliable, and continued to be so after I sold it to a friend who drove it for all of university (2010-2015).

But it was the 7 year old one that basically fell apart despite me buying one with full dealership service history, then sinking endless money in making sure all the repairs were done properly with OEM parts, on top of my religious maintenance as I'd believed German cars were only problematic due to neglectful owners.

So, it went about as poorly as you'd expect.

Culture matters. The Nords are more oriented towards social harmony, are culturally homogeneous, have high transparency, low rates of corruption. This means everyone's one the same page more-or-less.

Vs the large diverse cultures of the US (where I'm from) and Russia (where I now live). After living in Russia, it's no surprise that socialism did not work here. Forcing socialism onto cultures when they're not mature enough won't work. Even worse, it leads/would lead to massive oppression and corruption.

Well it shouldn't be used for toy projects either with all of that hackery that it pulls (even if you don't use atomics, violating alignment requirements alone means that your code can never make use of vector instructions).

The new code on GitHub makes it clear that this library is not about fat pointers, but about writing unsafe C in another language, powered by undefined behaviour and the glory of the C preprocessor.

If you want to have safe arrays in C, just use a proper library for that instead of going the route of abusing undefined behaviour. There are plenty of libraries to choose from: https://github.com/search?l=C&q=vector+array&type=Repositori... (not all of them are serious projects, so you should be careful when you pick one. I personally have been using this one: https://github.com/iscgar/cvec2 because I like the easy interface it provides and especially the fact that type safety is a top priority, but other may have different tastes and priorities).

It's worth reading that entire well-reasoned and well-researched post, but the tl;dr is that many billionaire philanthropists do a lot more good per dollar spent than the government and they get problems solved that government is often incapable of solving.

We do separate code repos, my last place did separate repos, place before that did monolith(s) but still did separate repos for anything not in the same monolith. I'm pretty sure it's more common to do separate repos, rather than mono-repo, for separate services.

Seems to me, though, the problem is people trying so hard to reuse code. That's the main problem cited in the article. People get really gung-ho about reusing code and creating shared libraries, but reusing code is actually bad most of the time. You should strive to only depend on things that you can reasonably expect to not change, and that you don't need to update even if a new version comes out. What you're supposed to do is take that code in the shared library, and make it a microservice, and obey the usual backward/forward compatibility rules.

Using a monolith hides that problem because the code remains easy to update and build, but just as fragile and in need of heavy testing whenever you change code modules that have multiple consumers. That goes against the idea of mono-repos as well.

Routing and filtering are areas of the Linux kernel replete with bugs. When they added iptables coverage to syzkaller, it filed a bunch of issues in the first day. It's still uncovering them, for example https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=2a96216b5facf781474795f...

A lot of people I've worked with treat the kernel as if it were the compiler, saying that like it's never the compiler, it's also never the kernel. For me, I've seen so many bugs in Linux that it's the first place I look when anything suspicious starts happening.

Based on that article, they did not bail out Carnival. The Fed just bought a pile of other assets, which meant that investors had more cash to put into other investments like bonds for Carnival, driving their interest rates on the bond market down.

It was not directly bailed out. Action by the Fed just made all debt investment more attractive and that made more investors compete for such investment, lowering the interest rates Carnival (and every other corporation issuing bonds) faced.

>Cross-team communication, documentation, API publishing and adherence goes from being very low impact within an org to suddenly being critically important.

Totally agree, but I think this is underappreciated by many. People tend to wave this away by just saying we'll just use Swagger/gRPC/whatever-doc-gen-tool, but that's not the main problem. The problem is that each service needs to have some coherent purpose, and must adhere to that purpose. Changes to that must be reflected through a proper API change and migration. But that requires thought, discipline, and (sometimes slow) work.

When you inevitably run into a situation where you could instead throw a quick hack into the wrong service that will make things work now the temptation to do it very strong (bonus points if this is due to regulatory changes). But now you have an undocumented behavior dependency between those services - they're coupled in a subtle way. And eventually the accretion of those results in a distributed monolith instead of a plain-old monolith.

>domain driven design is helpful for splitting into distributed services: split along domain lines with minimum inter-service dependencies

Definitely, yes. But then when your business evolves in some way that causes all your domains to be inappropriate, you're up a creek again. I don't think there's really a solution to that, though.
Because just because I'm a computer scientist doesn't mean that my child can't be a doctor or chemist. I haven't touched organic chemistry in 20years+ ... is it really surprising that it'd take me a lot to understand? I don't have the same amount of time to invest in (re-)learning everything.

> we spent half the second semester learning about different kinds of whales.

The point of most of that is not to teach you about whales (though whales are cool). It's to teach you:

* How to read and process written material.

* How to organize your thoughts and write grammatically correct sentences.

* The moral value that science is useful and nature is important to preserve.

It's the same reason they still teach cursive. Cursive matters fuck-all, but training fine motor skills in general is very useful and cursive is just a semi-arbitrary means to that end.
