Oh that's nice! I was actually already using mpv for playback but I never noticed this feature. The only disadvantage this has over my stitched together setup is that I don't get to keep the video afterwards but it fixes a lot of pain points.
There's no strong evidence that static typing helps reduce application logic bugs https://danluu.com/empirical-pl/

Under the same pressures it's pretty likely that the same teams that deploy dynamic language code to production and get an unexpected nil deploy statically typed code to production which unwraps an unexpected None and throws exceptions or panics.
I have used Digikam because I thought it was 4 years newer but it was a complete and utter disaster. Huge problems (slow) when using it with a lot of pictures, face detection all over the place and a shitty interface to tag people.

Picasa on the other hand has no problems with huge libraries and the tagging interface is actually fun to use.

Downside to Picasa is that the initial indexing is very slow, as it only uses 1 core.

Also (both Digikam and Picasa do this) software needs to write metadata into the JPG file. No sidecar allowed.
I'm not sure what you are talking about. Javascript developers also use HTML and the ability to nest HTML elements is "idiomatic" as well.

While wandering around Vienna a few years ago looking at all the buildings from the height of the empire and realising that it's quite a liveable city, for some reason it made me think about San Francisco. If the tech industry disappeared from the city tomorrow, what would be left in 100 years to show that it was there? It doesn't seem like there have been any meaningful improvements made to the actual city or its infrastructure. Just go on BART and listen to the 1970s robot voice announcements that could easily be done much better by an iPhone and Siri now. Certainly it's easier for tech companies to build parallel private transport networks than it is to invest in better public transportation for everyone.

It doesn't feel like SF has been able to capture any of the wealth being generated in a way that other cities like Vienna have, and now even when it's a century past its peak, people there still benefit. Certainly the homeless in SF don't seem to benefit even now, but maybe there are so many because SF truly is the best place to be homeless.

> Everyone in the late 90's, early 2000's was on it.

Outside the United States, very few people were on it. When I signed up to play some video games with some US friends from a forum, I remember having to Google a valid US address and it's matching ZIP code as it wouldn't even let me sign up without one.

MSN was more popular in western Europe and as I understand it ICQ (eventually federated and shared some tech, but not the same network) was the top early IM in eastern Europe. Can't comment on the rest of the world at that time but I doubt the sign-up form was any more accepting of Korean addresses for example.

There are two quite large problems with this:

1. Asking them to talk to you as if they know you is implicitly asking them to reveal quite a lot about their personal life; a life which you, as a prospective employer, has absolutely no business poking your big nose into. Don’t ask about their personal life.

2. As “JMTQp8lwXL” pointed out in another reply, this also opens your selection up to selection bias to prefer your personal preferences, not what would be good for the role. This kind of thing is, unfortunately, rampant, and leads to enormous monocultures where everybody who works at a certain place seems to be the same person; they all dress the same, like the same things, talk the same, and look the same. This is the very opposite of diversity.
Nvidia is now worth more than Intel
It's a bit of both. In the end, I appreciate it and have been an advocate for the use of k8s. The harder part is actually hiring or developing in-house skills to manage the cluster(s). Not every company can afford a 6-7 figure consulting contract for a couple small clusters.
Again - what the heck does this have to do with tech/hacking/startups.

If the CBs are missing their inflation/nominal income target, they can monetize deficits while not creating more inflation/nominal income flow than is warranted.

This of course gets into the matter of why we would want CBs to create inflation in some circumstances: the simple answer is that it makes the economy a lot more predictable if they do. When the flow of nominal incomes grinds to a halt, prices throughout the economy have trouble adjusting downwards in response, so we get a recession and widespread unemployment. Stability is what matters here, not just minimizing inflation at all costs.
It’s possible, but imagine you find a decrepit alien structure on the shoreline. You’ve never encountered it before. Do you think this broken down structure is going to easily give you answers? Do you think you’ll be able to recreate its building techniques without guidance to build a fully working one (even though this one may be incomplete)? I think this scenario is less likely than being trained by a fellow human. Unfortunately, unless there is evidence of genetic admixture it may remain uncertain.
I'm not sure I completely agree... or at least disagree to the extent that docker/containerization of applications is a huge boost to being able to deploy consistent applications.

The harder part is when there are byzantine libraries that tether deep into the OS. Often this is the case for some .Net on windows (and even with Java), mostly around commercial licensing models.

Spent the past two years pushing for getting (most) of the applications being worked on to at least be able to containerize and two major application developments are now targeting kubernetes for deployment. It's been uphill to say the least.

That's interesting, and I should have a closer look later, being long out of following GCC optimizations; I'm not good with assembler and never remember how the dumps work. The interaction between unroll-and-jam and unroll is confusing, in particular. (dot here is the unit-step loop, gfortran-10 gives a bit more info than -8, and more realistic avx targets are different, of course.)

$ gfortran-10 -c dot.f90 -Ofast -fopt-info
dot.f90:3:7: optimized: loop vectorized using 16 byte vectors
dot.f90:3:7: optimized: loop with 2 iterations completely unrolled (header execution count 64530389)

$ gfortran-10 -c dot.f90 -Ofast -fopt-info -funroll-loops --param max-unroll-times=4 -fvariable-expansion-in-unroller --param max-variable-expansions-in-unroller=4
dot.f90:3:7: optimized: loop vectorized using 16 byte vectors
dot.f90:3:7: optimized: loop with 2 iterations completely unrolled (header execution count 64530389)
dot.f90:4:0: optimized: loop unrolled 3 times

I got to interview a developer from an Estonian startup called Ampler Bikes. He's a full-stack developer (specializing on mobile apps) who was given a chance to build an app for electric bikes(whaaat? how awesome is that???).

What makes the project special(besides the purpose of the app) is that the author was the only developer, thus it was he who had to choose the tech stack, make architectural decisions, etc.

Modern allocators (jemalloc, mimalloc) do pooling optimization just as well as GC.
The point of non-GC language is usually about pointing directly to the source data instead of copy and having value type that nicely fit together in the same memory page instead of jumping around in heap space.
I know JIT can do all that, but reliably? We'd need Sufficiently Smart Compiler.

Yes. Unless you use something like Redis Flash or KeyDB that store data in flash too. You should check the data structures and functions being done on them, if it can be efficient to also work with disk. Ex: increment in redis is fast, but in another db may end up as Rocksdb get+update which is not.
There's nothing inherently wrong with images - but if a website shows more of highly upvoted content; and if users can upvote a cute cat picture after 10 seconds while a written article takes 10 minutes to read, the cute cats are going to dominate.
I think we agree. I'm not even sure hobekki tepeh is evidence of sedentary society. It is evidence of what it is, primarily: the existence of a large monument/statuary site.

I even think "sedentary" becomes an less interesting characteristic, largely because of GT. If something like GT existed before agricultural economies, then sedentary is not a "necessary condition" for the development of monumental culture.

Sedentary agriculturalism is interesting because it later became prominent, but not as a milestone.

Overall, my anateur interpretation of the site is "culture comes first." This is at odds with both the Marxist & Victorian views that put "material conditions" first.

My other speculative take is that invention is constant. People probably "invented agricultural" many times. They may have even practiced it in significant ways. The spread an development of ideas is the limiting factor, not invention. GT, as place of gathering or some other custom that involved large groups, makes a lot more sense as a contributor to what happened next in Anatolian history

GT isn't just early, it's adjacent to and immediately precedes one of the earliest known hotspots for neolithic human activity. I don't think that's a coincidence.

There's now another one called ruqqus. I'm not sure whether to call it a reddit-clone or a voat-clone. Even the front-page is full of right-wing trolling, whether or not that was the intended purpose of the site.
This is a wonderful answer and much better than what I was about to write.

Flutter Widgets, like HTML are declarative. They're just hierarchical information. This works in HTML, and it works in Flutter - there's nothing to get confused about.

Nested control flow (if statements, loops etc.) obscures the actual behaviour and so good practice is to break it up until it is clear and understandable.
No I hadn't. Thanks for the pointer.

I did say that it was implicit, but “having a conversation with the other person like if they were a human being” seems to imply that they are having an informal conversation as in simply shooting the breeze. In such a conversation as an interviewee, it is hard to remain professional and separate your personal and workplace activities, and this seemed to be what the interviewer was aiming for, in order to get to know them better.
Hmm, not sure the questions about what date a certain event happened feel relevant to the article. I mean sure, people do lose track of how long ago an event really was, and feel like something that happened in the early 2010s was just a few years ago.

But at least in my case, it's more of a subjective feeling, not any confusion about when the actual date in question occurred. I know the London Olympics occurred in 2012, it just feels like 2012 was only a few years ago rather than that the Olympics occurred in some other year.

Still, I'm not sure how you'd really test that in this format.

Avoiding eternal september sounds like a killer feature to me :P
Yup, it's especially funny because the present-day, deeply egalitarian idea of homosexuality (with its attendant developments, including gay marriage) is a very modern (late 19th c. at the earliest) development. Back in, say, Ancient Greece and Rome, "prison bitch" was all you got - both homosexual sex and, to a large extent, heterosexual were essentially predatory in nature. Rape culture was very real. (You can see the consequences of this e.g. in the Christian new testament, where the homosexual practices of the time are said to be an abomination but this also extends to heterosexual practices.)

(OP's article does attempt to reframe the typical practices of the time and make them "fit" the modern egalitarian view, but note how even in their own account it's always the older, more dominant member of the pairing who is said to "love" and "care" for his younger and more submissive partner. This is clearly the same sort of highly skewed arrangement that is well known from ancient Mediterranean cultures.)

"static types languages were cumbersome and unpleasant to use"

Can not disagree more! Dynamic languages are by there verry nature inferior to statically typed.
Ouch. What resources can you not remove? What exactly are you running?

In general, as first thing stop the bleeding:

1. Stop your services from running

2. Check your IAM policies for anything suspicious, new service accounts, new users. Clean up.

3. Rotate all your Service Accounts and Service Account’s keys! If possible re-provision your machines (with a new SA) and redeploy your apps.

4. Check your VPC’s firewall

Then you absolutely need to figure out how you’ve been hacked. If the breach is on the application layer you must figure out where and patch it. Check your application logs.

Then check your GCP activity logs, search for unexpected calls from service accounts - assume the attacker has compromised a service account and search for attempt to persist with calls to `setIam` or other sensitive api calls.
