The straight jacket of a project management software is not always helpful, but your manager must be able to effectively collect, analyze, and communicate status in both directions. In fact that’s the only mandatory part of the job.

Your situation is highly dysfunctional. If you are not quitting just yet consider taking charge - collate the status of your project (you and people you coordinate with) into a tidy status update that your manager can take to their manager. It’s a difficult skill, but you will earn undying gratitude. And god help you if you can add a meaningful chart (as opposed to a bullshit chart) to your stays update - you will instantly become the savior of the team.

Fun story. I have once received a promotion based on a single ducking spreadsheet of this sort. I was so mad about all my other “hardcore“ engineering work not meaning diddly squat by comparison, I asked if they can take the promotion back (they refused).
I came to terms with it eventually - I started walking up the management chain asking what happened and eventually I was told that hiring someone to write solid code is a question of throwing money into the hiring pipeline, but hiring someone to provide meaningful insight or direction is mostly a matter of luck.

99% from electronics supply houses has been the only IPA available for a while. Newark had it in stock the other day, I bought some for my electronics work. The wife borrowed half a bottle to make her sanitizer with though lol.
> debugging and development on a normal host and only deploy on a unikernel when you are stable?

Sure! And, still, when you deploy, it fails. At least one of your assumptions that led to your conclusion that your development/testing environment is equivalent to the production one are flawed. Find which ones.

Pretty sure the Fed has been spending trillions to keep asset bubbles from bursting.

So far it's been working, but also exacerbating social tensions and wealth inequality.
Thank you for this tremendous piece of silicon detective work. Really hope that that there are further instalments to come, for example covering the microcode.

Just to highlight too that footnote 1, describing the lengths that the Intel engineers had to go to ensure that interaction between the 8086 and the 8087 worked, is fascinating.
Funnily, ever since I decided to follow the solid principles and striving for clean architectures in general, I've been writing more classes. Not that I can in my current job, being go, but I make do.

Why can't people let paradigms be paradigms instead of trying to turn them into religions? They're approaches that might or might not be well suited to different problems; yet so many people try to make the problem fit the paradigm they prefer instead of the other way around.

This article is thankfully more nuanced than most on this subject, though.
I might be misunderstanding you.

You said "Seven percent is generally accepted as the expected market return over a period of time sufficiently long enough to mitigate systemic risk, ". Also, When people say "historical return is 7%", they do not say it as a historical fact, but as a forward expectation like you did.

So, you need to provide why 7% is generally accepted, and why not 2%, or 70%.

Comparison to gdp and inflation definitely apply. Business profits in an index grow with Inflation and gdp growth, and stock value is the expectation of future profits discounted over time.
To be ultra confusion avoiding you don’t necessarily get great perf benefits from the merely organising things as per the ECS pattern. You still need to organise your data around how it is used. Which is why Unity uses archetypes which trade fairly automatic organisation based on entities component signature for increased cost if you add and remove components from them (as it triggers reorganising where that entities components are stored). There are other patterns with different trade offs.

In terms of just mental overhead any form of composition is useful be it Components in the Unity sense or Components and Systems in the ECS sense.
Retired on Hawaii with 3 Lambos in my garage. I seriously used it once during an interview - stupid question, stupid answer.
I think one of the more interesting takeaways is that Lennart and Kay set out to accomplish some specific goals:

- universal IPC-based activation of services

- kdbus with systemd being the userspace management layer for that

- single writer group hierarchy with systemd being the single writer

And that these goals have not (yet) been realized. My perspective is that:

- socket activation was never that useful to begin with and complicates the build process for lots of services.

- kdbus could have been something real, but Lennart and Kay were unwilling to compromise and listen to the kernel devs criticisms. They tried to sidestep the network maintainer by making it a character device, but forgot they did not have the clout that Google/Android does that allowed binder to get pushed through.

- systemd turned out to be the worst container runtime on the market (systemd the supervisor is fundamentally that, a container runtime) and having all cgroup operations flow through its opinionated dbus api was simply unacceptable for docker, kubernetes, lxc, runc, and everybody else maintaining quality container runtimes.

So many of these goals will never come to fruition. What systemd excels at is being a dependency based service supervisor with an opinionated and half functional logging layer.
I think it's helpful to separate out pricing from product when talking about morality in business.

What a product should cost depends on how much people are willing to pay for it. Whether a product should be allowed to exist depends on whether it's morally acceptable.

The issue with slaves, and products that pollute the environment or mistreat living things isn't how much they cost - it's that they exist at all.

I share it. I love Objective-C and feel its a far superior language over Swift. Swift is too clever by half, with its var, let, func, and the god awful question marks. Objective-C is verbose sure, but that helps readability. I'll never switch to Swift, as Objective-C is so much better in every single way.

I made a webapp called "Disqors" (https://www.disqors.com/latest). It's backend largely runs on Django.

I connect online articles into discussion graphs and intersperse the top tweets about them. There are feeds that filter the discussions in different ways (exchanges among top authors, most discussed articles). It's also possible to see a specific discussion graph in its entirety, e.g. the discussion around Marc Andreessen's "It's Time to Build" essay: https://www.disqors.com/discussions/36672
I kinda disagree. We looked at doing this and just couldn't fathom how it could be done. You might be surprised at the amount of code and entanglement there is to support multiple users, multiple processes - that touches everything from IPC/shared memory to address space to permissions. Very large deep cuts would have to be made and then you'd need to ensure your patchset stays congruent with upstream.

The other thing that people will look at is doing something like alpine && a heavy-handed seccomp/apparmor but then you're not really doing any cuts at all.
>If you're not interested in getting as many papers/citations/awards in whatever way you can then you may be in the wrong game.

I don't think the argument is to not care about the older group. But it is possible more than just deaths are skewed to them. Is also possible age is just a proxy to what the real risk factor is. (My money is still on exposure to lung weakening environments.)

That said, I think the natural next step for this argument is targeted testing at younger populations to see what their IFR is. With stronger (read: expensive) measures to isolate long term care facilities. Occupants, care givers, cooks, cleaners, all. (If the immunity antibody story plays out, work on ways to get antibody positive people in those positions.)

And I will again point out. I'm a random internet poster. No, nobody should do something just because I think it makes sense. :)
Whataboutism is a fallacy when applied to moral arguments, not resource allocation arguments (which is what I at least read the OP as making). Everyone has a finite amount of time and resources for political participation, the DoJ (and every other prosecutor's office) has finite personnel and resources to devote to cases, etc. Unlike moral debate, choosing to protest/investigate some specific cause/company is a genuine zero-sum game because there are far more choices than there are resources to pursue them. Choosing one means not choosing another, so it's completely reasonable to question whether any given choice is providing the best ROI. That's a genuine major part of a prosecutor's job description, and it applies to citizens too. It's quite possible to put in a ton of time and effort and achieve nothing because it was a bad approach.

I think the best way to "answer" the where-do-you-see-yourself-in-5-years question would be to first reflect on what the intention behind the question actually is.

I've never asked that question of a candidate because I find it insipid and believe it would be a turn off to cool people. It makes the interviewer seem like a corporate stooge, and may put the interviewee into a bullshit corporate appeasement mode. I think this is the only correct assessment of that question. A skilled behavioral interviewer would never use such a stupid question, IMHO.

I've never been asked that question. I suppose I would answer with bullshit if I really still wanted the job. As for the actual true answer? I have no freaking idea. It depends on what happens, what opportunities arise, and what obstacles. I fully expect corporate drones would not appreciate such an answer, so bullshit it is.
for me personally adblocker without element picker is pointless, I want to customize sites I visit every day from clutter, only ublock allows that (reason I use Kiwi browser), I wish there were more browsers with built in adblockers which would allow element picking, bit until then my only options are kiwi browser, yandex better and firefox, which all support ublock extension
Think about what the interviewer is trying to learn. They are saying "Please explain to me what career path you're looking for. Tell me if you're looking for a short term thing or you want a career here. Do you want to grow technically or managerial? Are you even thinking about growth or are you thinking about it in terms of honing your current title?"

I would say if you want the best fit you should answer earnestly.
Am I missing something? This seems less surprising than the alternative.

Ultra pure water generates a very strong osmotic gradient in that it will simultaneously explode cells as the pure water rushes in to reduce particle count inside a cell while at the same time drawing out any free particles.

Yeah that's the weird thing. They write "for password fields" and then apply it to non-password fields and even multi-line fields. Have you ever seen a multi-line password field?! I understand that people might abuse <textarea> for it but that's definitely not the common thing and just crazy talk. It's an excuse but I don't understand the reason behind this change.

I've been setting maxlength to generous values on my fields in applications since I started coding HTML, if now suddenly I have to revisit everything and add JavaScript magic to check form validity where previously the page was completely free of JS, well, I think I'd frankly refuse where possible and tell people to complain to their faulty implementation.
> Competence is very far down this equation.

The worst part is when performance review time comes around. It's obvious to anyone looking at the situation objectively that competence doesn't matter much when choosing who to reward and who to fire, but seeing the tribe members pretend otherwise and target hard workers who aren't part of the clique is absolutely devastating to morale.
Yes, and? What percent of that 10% are nearing retirement age or retired, and might want to de-risk?

And personally I'd say that the 90th-99th percentile investor

There are a number of analysts comparing the effectiveness of attempts to mitigate this pandemic and finding lockdowns to be high cost and risk for low impact as compared to distancing, handwashing, masks, testing, and tracking. One of the most prominent is Isaac Ben-Israel https://www.timesofisrael.com/top-israeli-prof-claims-simple...
out-after-70-days/

I'm sorry you don't like the actual math, but the reality is that the initial wave of this pandemic has been burning out in all the effected areas in very similar ways regardless of lockdowns or not. Personally I find detailed studies by experienced professionals like Isaac Ben-Israel more compelling than what you present here.
> You are talking about what makes good science when evaluated by a person skilled in that particular art the parent poster is talking about how groups of people discover increasingly true pictures of the world.

No, I am talking about how groups of people discover increasingly true pictures of the world. They don't do that by consensus; they do it by finding models that make more and more accurate predictions, as shown by the actual track record of accurate predictions.

> When you want to improve your model of the world by including some heretofore unknown to you concept,fact, or set of facts you can opt to learn everything from the ground up in order to develop a deep understanding of the topic or accept or slot in some preexisting truths and models as described by others that you presume to be true.

Or, instead of making any assumptions, you can look at the actual predictive track record to see which "preexisting truths or models" actually work and which don't.

The reason this isn't obvious to most people is that most people don't stop to think about how much of their everyday experience, particularly in this age of computers and GPS and other technological marvels, actually gives them a huge track record of accurate predictions for our fundamental scientific theories. If our predictions based on models using General Relativity were not accurate, GPS wouldn't work. If our predictions based on models using quantum mechanics were not accurate, computers wouldn't work. There are countless other examples. Most people don't stop to think about this so they don't realize how high the bar actually is for having a track record of accurate predictions. They think of GR and QM as esoteric physics, not as everyday realities. They don't realize how huge a volume of evidence from their direct experience they already have for these theories being correct, so they think they have to take physicists' word for it, when they actually don't. Which means they also don't realize how much other people, who seem to be just as sure of themselves and their predictions as physicists (if not more so), actually are just overstating their case, often by many, many orders of magnitude.

So I reject your model of how people should actually assess claims in areas where they don't have expertise.

> When people say that the scientific consensus is that cigarettes cause cancer they mean I haven't fully examined the complexity of the human lung and the effects of carcinogens on same but I accept the fact that many experts have done so and are telling me that If I keep smoking I'm more likely to die of cancer.

When people assess the probability that if they smoke they will increase their risk of dying of cancer, they have no need to rely on any "consensus". They can just look at the data.
Thanks for the article Ken. I’d like to remark the small refresher on how transistors works, it makes up for a really pleasant read. Also the footnotes are actually useful in decluttering the articles but amenable and clear to read.
Inflation happens when the dollar is no longer the global reserve currency.

That may not be for awhile, but the more debt the government takes on the more likely it is to happen. (The US government can literally print money to pay debt, but that devalues the dollar, aka inflation.)

How long will the USA be the most trusted economy?
>> If restaurants put any effort at all into fixing those things, there would not be such a strong demand for apps.

In such a world, Some model of Ghost kitchens will thrive anyway, not small restaurants.

Why ?

The area a kitchen serves will become much larger - distance matters less when you don't need to go pick the food. And even when food freshness matters, there are some solutions like parcooking and finishing the cooking in ovens inside delivery vans.

The type of food a kitchen serves becomes much more varied - today your Chinese restaurant has one kitchen, and the Mexican place has a different one. But with delivery-only, a single kitchen can open many virtual restaurants.

This also helps with delivery - a single family who likes different food, can order from the same kitchen, and get the order delivered in one go.

And this is now an internet business - since customers prefer all the restaurants in a single app, single search - and those add new complexities.

And usually, small business(in aggregate) often had the benefit of agility over large businesses. But a virtual restaurant is very agile, conducting business experiments is rather cheap.

And personal service and deep relationships don't exist in food delivery - and that was a weakness for big businesses over small ones.

So long term i don't think delivery a good place for restaurants to be.

It's fairly common to copy a large amount of text and drop it into an input with length restrictions. For instance, I do it often when I submit HN titles. For regular text, it's a much better UX to be able to paste the whole thing then edit it down to meet the restrictions than to paste and have it auto-truncated.

When it comes to password inputs, where you can't necessarily see what you're pasting, it's extremely important than the user knows when truncation occurs. But could that be achieved while still respecting maxlength? Yes, I think it would be decent UX to alert the user when they attempt to paste text that exceeds the maxlength, without actually completing the paste. That way, the input remains empty so there's no confusion about whether the full password or a truncated password has been entered, and the user can take appropriate action.
So Mozilla's non-standard compliant change broke one fewer site, problem solved?

Even for this site, why is Mozilla not limiting this breaking change designed to fix password fields to: Password fields. They haven't described why type=text or even textarea should be non-standard, only why type=password should be.

If they limited this to password fields, I'd have no issue. But per the code change they did not.

> The problem is when creditors start taking haircuts and going bankrupt themselves.

But this isn't really a risk to the broader market, because the government has already made it plain that it's going to backstop the liquidity to prevent any liquidity crisis, from buying commercial debt, to even buying equity. ...so if the gov't is the lender of last resort, then your argument doesn't make sense because.

Lehman Brothers going under is something the Fed has said it will not let happen again. Particularly in this scenario where bad debt is due to a pure externality.

...not to mention that people's bank accounts are protected by FDIC, and equity/retirement accounts are protected by a similar program.

Not that it really matters, because the banks are all much better capitalized than they were in 2008.

The real danger here is the potential for snap-back inflation (in a stagflation scenario), which I'd argue actually makes equities MORE attractive, not less - since stocks are inherently inflation protected.
