The other one he uses is "Your a daisy if you do", which may be rather apparent but it references another colloquialism of "pushing up daises" in other words being dead and therefore plant food. Both of which, at least in the south, pretty much mean that the person is done talking and are serious warnings, that they are done talking. I would assume that they where also used in the American west at a time given that a lot of Confederate Civil War soldiers went west after the war.

The movies use of them was actually well played as Holiday was from Georgia and would have shared many of the colloquialisms that where in use in the deep south of Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, etc.

The thing I love about Java is that they continue to improve the language without:

A) Throwing the kitchen sink in and making mistakes.

B) Changing anything that already works.

There are very few languages that continue to improve and provide such long term stability. More often than not more feature full languages end up forcing me to re-test or rewrite sections of my old code base for forwards compatibility.

I suggest maybe there's a huge difference between true 'drop-shipping' and literally creating a product for export.

You don't need to 'touch the product' to become a business.

Selling a commodity product is like having a little store on the web.

Running ads and the shipping right from some regular retailer, the most 'pure' form of drop-shipping is really just price arbitrage, this will always exist but I can't imagine for too long.

Working with a factory to develop a product, marketing it, and selling it, well that's a regular business.
This is amazing. I love the passion and dedication in projects like this. It is so easy to take a few seconds of film like that for granted, but this is a great reminder of how much work goes into the details.
Sure, but I have a question: Is this network illegal? Or the real copyright infringement is the URL used to reconstruct the copyrighted work?
A previous article on them stipulated that through December 2019 they were still up vs the market.

“After the March payday, its flagship Black Swan fund has produced a mean annual return on invested capital of 76%* since the firm was created in 2008. It’s a good result, but if you were going to make the same calculation as of Dec. 31 2019, the long-term compounded return would only be marginally better than that of the S&P 500 over the same time period.”

There were thousands of people who participated in Bitcoin's early days, tens of thousands by 2012. And back then they were giving away Bitcoin on faucets. You could also mine it with a basic graphics card.

It's not a lame comparison at all. If you bought Bitcoin in 2010, you've seen a 8,900,000% ROI. The asset may go up another 10-1000x from here. Bitcoin will outlast Uber. And if you're still comparing it to Beanie Babies 11 years later, it's likely you don't understand finance or blockchain, and you haven't been paying attention to what's happening in the past few years.
Covid-19 and the Great Rehiring
I want to be clear I'm not disagreeing with you here. But I would like to point out if you were building a real bridge every component would be inspected individually. They wouldn't just let you build a whole bridge and do a final load test. Whether that level of robustness/ confidence is important will be highly contextual.
If we think of model, view, controller, much of the complexity seems to be when these dimensions leak into each other.

Keeping them orthogonal seems the first step in the process of trading the problem for a smaller problem.

As TFA notes, there is a lower limit to how much complexity can be squeezed out of a system.
I said nothing even approximately like "all those people are probably going to die anyway" and that is not, in fact, what I think! It is offensive that you would make up something like that and claim that is what I said.

What a growing number of doctors are saying is that ventilators often turn out to do more harm than good in treating COVID, ventilators have been used too soon and too often in treating COVID, and ventilators have probably resulted in excess deaths over alternative treatments.

In the Node ecosystem, there's no shortage of PDF libraries, including the quite full-featured and not unnecessarily painful to use PDFKit.

We have a Lucene binding, too. It's called Elasticsearch. :)
I phrase it as "The solution can be as simple as the problem but no simpler", which means, you can "create" complexity. We see this all the time in code, after all, we must account for this.

But you can't make the solution simpler than the problem. There's kind of a "by definition" aspect to this, so it's kinda circular, but it's still a valuable observation, because we also see this in code all the time. For instance, it plays a significant role in the leakiness of abstractions; that leakiness is typically the attempt to make a solution that is simpler than the entire problem space. You can be fine as long as your particular problem fits in the space of the leaky solutions, but once your problem pokes out of that you can be in big trouble.
Another aspect of Intel not working that closely with Apple (it this ARM transition happens) is that Apple is often seen as knowing what they are talking about on deep technical issues (basically they have lots of really good engineers). So Intel will need to find other smart customers that they can work closely with to understand the consumers needs and what they should modify in their chips for the next gen.
> Just because you don't like IRC doesn't make it less open.

IRC isn't the problem, the problem is synchrnonous communication channels in general (IRC, whatsapp, telephone, Matrix, ....). If somebody is not available when the discussion is ongoing, they can't participate. That does make your communication channel much less open than, e.g., a mailing list, where somebody from a different timezone can read the discussion 8 hours later and participate in it.

> User entitlement is a huge problem in open source, and it burns out maintainers faster than anything else. I don't stand for it.

What burns maintainers is having too much to do, and the root cause of that is failing to grow other maintainers to help you with your projects, which is impossible to do if you act as a burned maintainer, because open source is something most people do on their free time for fun, and stressed / burned / overworked maintainers aren't fun to deal with.

Sustainable projects have a high-ratio of contributors relative to users. When this ratio is high, it doesn't matter that some users act entitled, because there are enough maintainers to deal with that load. If you have a lot of users, but a relatively small contributor base, that's when things become problematic.

Attracting contributors is probably the hardest part of open source, and like it or not, every project is competing against all other projects for contributors. Projects that are super nice to every user that interacts with them, no matter how "wrong"/"entitled" the user is, or tired its maintainers are, attract the most contributors, because people like working there.

Being tired while dealing with an entitled user and trying to be super nice with them is super tough, but all other alternatives I know are much worse.
The 3600% return in March is sort of misleading.

The returns are on the premium paid for options (or margin), not the notional (which is where fees are paid). That $4bn fund is counting its performance on only $40 million of invested capital (of the $4bn). So they are up 3600% on $40 million.

Universa’s model is they take 3.5% of a portfolio value per year and use it to buy puts over the course of a year. So at any time, maybe they have 30-60 basis points of the portfolio in puts. So they are up 3600% on 30 basis points or like 12%.

"Spitznagel included a chart in his letter showing that a portfolio invested 96.7% in the S&P 500 and 3.3% in Universa’s fund would have been unscathed in March, a month in which the U.S. equity benchmark fell 12.4%."

"The same portfolio would have produced a compounded return of 11.5% a year since March of 2008 versus 7.9% for the index."

2.6% per annum is a lot of outperformance, albeit not quite as eye popping as 3600%.
"You just don't need to stop every transmission to stop the disease. Even stopping 70%, via a range of measures, is about enough. You can tolerate some errors."

Please explain this to Gavin Newsom.
Excerpts:

"Analog NTSC televisions generate color by looking at the phase of a signal relative to a reference frequency."

[...]

"And instead of doing color properly by synthesizing the phases and stuff like that, it simply used a crystal that was 3.58 megahertz [the carrier frequency for the color signal] minus 15.750 kilohertz, which was the horizontal scan frequency. So it slipped one phase, 360 degrees, every scan line. You put that signal on the screen and you’ve got a color bar from left to right."
I think it's very difficult. You're looking at losing significant money 9 years out of 10. (Or 20 years out of 20, who knows? It's black swans baby.) So you can only do this with a very small amount of money. How much time can you afford to spend managing say 3% of your total liquid assets?
Surely some kind of middle ground is possible? Something like, "student loans aren't dischargeable for 15 years after you receive them."

That would eliminate the possibility of a quick "tactical bankruptcy" after college, while also allowing students who made an unwise financial deal when they were 18 not to spend their whole lives paying off debt.

I would love an ARM based MacBook Air. I dunno why it’s widely assumed if Apple introduces one ARM based Mac that all Mac’s will eventually go ARM - Operating systems supporting multiple CPU architectures isn’t a new thing, and Apple has had more commercial success than anyone else. I have no doubt for me as an end user that once apps are updated I wouldn’t experience any difference - other than better performance, battery performance, and a cooler running computer.

Thankfully I’m not clinging to any older unsupported apps so I realize it’s easy for me to be pro ARM Mac - which is why I don’t expect Apple to go ARM only any time soon but offer a choice for quite a while while the market settles out.

And who knows, Intel could turn it around. They haven’t managed for the last 7 years or so, but I suppose it could still eventually happen.
The way it's worded is very confusing to me. Kind of seems like they're trying to hide the fact that they underperform. I imagine once they take out their performance fees (usually 2% per year plus 20% when they exceed the benchmark) those gains aren't as impressive.
Within 15 minutes of hearing the concept it yelled "scam" to me. Super low margins with high scale? Great. Sounds like a bunch of warehouses wanting you to act as a salesman for all the work and none of the money.

The more I read about it the worse it sounded.
FWIW I work on Pop OS for System76 and using the "proper" name doesn't really matter to us. I don't even use it myself, except when I'm writing technical, first-party information/documentation that needs to be part of our cohesive brand. In colloquial use, just call it Pop.
> I'll agree that copyright has gone haywire as much as the next guy, but this seems to be the exact kind of defense strategy that will archieve nothing but annoy the judge.

I think a good analogy is that of two twin brothers A and B. One of them (A) commits a crime and is caught on camera. The judge, however, can't convict A because the video evidence isn't conclusive because of the existence of B. You can say that B is annoying the judge because he doesn't play along, but that's not how it works.

As a senior level software engineer, I am passionate about creating quality applications by writing quality code. I have experience with software languages ranging from Elixir, to Haskell, to Java. I believe in writing simple, easy to ready code with a strong emphasis on maintainability. I also have experience in helping junior engineers to grow, and have accomplished this by pair-programming, code reviews, and giving one-on-ones.
yeah but you would have a capital gains tax on that option trade
Probably. Amazon is equally guilty disguising "training" as a foot in the door for helping you solve ($$) your code pipeline issues. I'm not surprised if partner vendors do the same.
In theory I like Github actions, in practice it was a nightmare when I tried it.

Discoverability and modification was a nightmare. Solving any task basically required that I pick a community written extension and trust it with github credentials.

Their documentation also managed to both be too long and devoid of the details I needed answering, which is a neat trick.

In the end I went back to CircleCI, since writing a yaml file was much clearer.
It's a bit early for any of these predictions.
> Read them yourselves and make up your own mind :)

Are there any other things you think I should waste my time with, just to see if they're really as bad as they say? Twilight fan-fiction, perhaps?
That's a very interesting interpretation of the situation, and I'll credit it. However I can't help but feel that purposefully affecting an accent like this is inauthentic, and untrue to your real self. I can see your counter-argument that, for your brother, this act is bringing him closer to his ideal self.
> I found that there so far have been covid 234,133 deaths [0] and season flu can cause up to 646,000 deaths [1].

How are you counting covid-19 deaths? You're counting the people who had a test, were confirmed positive for covid-19, who then died.

How are you counting flu deaths? You're looking at people who had a test and were positive for flu, but you're also including people who had flu like symptoms but no test. And you're looking at excess mortality and seeing what strains of flu were circulating. And you plug all this into a formula and a number drops out the other end.

If you only count confirmed deaths you'll see much larger numbers for covid-19 deaths. If you use the same excess mortality method you'd again see much larger figure for covid-19 deaths.

But this way of comparing confirmed covid-19 deaths against statistical modelling for flu gives a misleading impression: that flu and covid are mostly similar. They're really not, many more people are dying from covid-19.
The ringwraiths will be back, but for now the shire is safe.
I had TOTALLY forgotten him/his sites but holy crap. Looking that up on the Wayback Machine is a rabbit hole I don't have time to fall down today but I really want to. If I remember right, I found him in a link roulette-type thing from someone else's Geocities page.

Let me be real: I loved Geocities and Angelfire. I liked seeing what people could build (and there were some pretty crazy-good personal sites). But I think even more, I liked that everyone was there because they were either really into the web, or really into some particular topic.

I miss the concept of deep dives. Being able to take them myself, and being able to tag along on other people's, and knowing that there were a vast number of topics where I could be pretty confident that I understood about 85-90% of what could be understood about them at the time.

My golden era was the brief period where I could do ALL of the following well:

- Hardware-build a computer
- Fully program said computer to do anything I wanted it to
- Network my various devices however I wanted
- Access the internet
- Build webpages
- Play arcade, desktop and console games that, in theory, I understood well enough that I could have coded them
- And, let me be really honest, engage in some minor phone phreaking because I was a teenager and that seemed REALLY COOL

And I felt like I understood the totality of most of those things. Which, again, maybe was just due to being a teenager and not knowing what I didn't know, but the size of the domain spaces seemed more manageable.

Now, I spend all day building websites. It's a good job. I can't complain. But I can only build websites. A couple of years ago, for fun, I tried to take a Coursera networking course and I about lost my mind because of how complex I realized it had gotten. My wife is about to start the second year of her Master of Software Engineering degree and I have realized watching her learn Java that there's a whole domain there that I will never be able to understand. Forget understanding how my phone works, and forget the idea of taking apart a Nintendo Switch and putting it back together with mods like I did that classic NES. I probably wouldn't even recognize most of the components.

I sound like I'm sitting in my rocking chair getting ready to yell at the whippersnappers to get off my lawn, don't I?

I'm 37.

Please tell me I'm not the only person to feel this way at this age?

(Edited to add: I am, at least, reassured that I'm not completely alone in this by the quote attributed to physicist Eugene Wigner: "It is nice to know that the computer understands the problem. But I would like to understand it too." Poor Eugene died in 1995 and I feel like he'd have hated the 2000s.)
