I think you are _radically_ underestimating the cost (and overestimating the benefit) of adding a feature to Google's index.

When you are writing a small-scale search system over a specialized corpus where the index fits in the memory of a single machine it is easy to imagine and realize nifty features.

When your search engine draws 100MW you have a completely different perspective.

> (As an American, I find this phenomenon extremely silly and very foreign feeling. I don't really care whether "my" ancestors get credit for something or not, especially given that national boundaries and people move around all the time. I find it vaguely nationalistic in the ugly sense. Maybe it's because there were plenty of great Americans who were clearly not born here in the first place?)

Most of the countries in the America are largely populated by immigrants and their descendants, and have a relatively shallow history of culture [1], which gives them few opportunities to engage in these arguments, and little reason to care about the result.

[1] I should note here that the fact that the modern countries do not derive authority from any pre-existing indigenous polities gives them little influence in the development of culture.

I'm going to risk echoing what other like-minded contrarians here have posted. This essay makes some good observations about what happens to developers in their careers, but colors those observations with opinions about what's good and bad. And, as is usual in the developer community, continuously learning new technologies and layering in more "best practice" structure (presumably in one's own free time) is always king when it comes to these folks.

It's hard not to read this and sense a bit of bellyaching about how the market for software engineers isn't a pure meritocracy where those who are using all the latest tools with pitch-perfect architecture are the only ones who get hired and promoted. And it seems to totally ignore the real world in which legacy software, with all its warts, does exist and can't be thrown out.

Before those books, there was a non-fiction book called The Hitch-hiker's Guide to Europe [0]. It was a reference for travellers in Europe on a budget, something similar to the niche the Lonely Planet books fill today. It was a big tome, updated regularly with new editions from 1971 through the mid-90s, and well enough known that Douglas Adams' readers would have got the joke. My parents had a copy.

That's the original inspiration for the in-universe Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy and perhaps the better point of comparison for other guides that are named after it.

There's some query planner tweaks you can use to speed up JOINs with FDWs [0]. In layered querying [1], we had an issue with the planner choosing nested loop joins (which essentially run as multiple small single-row fetches) which tank performance if starting a scan has a large latency overhead. This can happen if the FDW underreports its startup cost.

If you use `SET enable_nestloop=off`, this will disable them for that session and use alternative strategies (like hash or merge join) which might be faster.

Yes! A few months back I was feeling quite burnt out over this feeling.

Taking a step back and focusing on a wider variety of work / hobbies / projects did wonders for my work motivation and ability.

It seems to me that taking on a larger, wider variety of mental tasks actually improves ones ability to focus on a single one, instead of spending all energy on one task (or job).
That wasn't the actual experiment, though. The actual experiment was to test whether or not these publications were capable of detecting fake papers.

The youtube channel Todd's Workshop did an interesting video with Tobias Capwell and a few others examining the effectiveness of English longbows against plate armor that I found interesting in a number of respects. In the video they had archer Joe Gibbs shooting a 160lb longbow. For this, he uses a posture that looks unusual by modern archery standards but which is evidently supported by contemporary illustrations of English longbowmen. Apparently this unusual posture is the only way he can manage to draw bows like this at all (he can draw up to 200lb bows like this.) He seems to be able to hold the bow drawn for a moment or two, but it's a far cry from what movies generally depict.

>Still, assuming a modest annual increase at the cheap registrars it still does eventually win

I know it's not the main point of your comment, but if you're going to consider future annual increases you should also consider the net present value. If you have to pay $2000 up front and the cost of a domain stays at about ~$10/year but goes up with inflation, you'll never win. Financially, you're better off investing your $2,000 (even very conservatively) and then paying the $10/year registration fee out of your earnings while pocketing the rest (and still having your $2,000 in principal at the end).

F1 is a "non-immigration" visa - meaning that it is explicitly designed so that the students do not stay after finishing the studies. There are "dual intent" visas which are designed with the intent of possibly staying, such as H1B. But technically, expressing intent to stay can be a reason to be denied F1 visa.

That may be true, but that's not what F1 is made for, by design.

Even with all the technology in the world, the laws of thermodynamics hold. Going faster raises friction losses requiring either a smaller plane or a larger amount of fuel. Either way, the price goes up. SST will never supplant subsonic transport on a large scale level, even accounting for the elimination of sonic booms.
That characterisation feels a bit unfair on MH, who certainly weren't at fault for the plane shot down over Ukraine, and may not have been responsible for the disappearance MH370 either, depending on which theory you think is most likely.

Do you have any evidence for this? The incredibly vast amount of research work done by immigrants on these visas probably outweighs any risk they pose as these educated people head back after graduating or try to stay.

You're not crazy. You're a cogent individual deliberately believing something that is not true or guided by reality.

Hugo 0.62 added Markdown rendering hooks so you can do custom processing of a standard markdown image. I was able to use this to get rid of my <figure> shortcodes. The render hook generates the figure tag and also uses Hugo image processing to generate multiple image sizes for srcset.

This is intriguing. Have you considered allowing external developers to provide Deep Search integrations?

I'm imagining a platform where developers can submit Deep Search modules that would run in a sandbox with access to your index, metadata stores and knowledge graph. These modules would return a confidence score and results for a given query, with no ability to snoop on users by exfiltrating data. They could answer a single query or handle an entire domain. The best ones would rise in prominence according to their performance.

One big hurdle is that developers would have to be properly incentivized to return accurate results, but if that can be achieved, you could end up with something that is way better than Google.
> Blockchain has emerged from the once shadowy world of cryptocurrency to become the most in-demand skill in 2020, according to LinkedIn. The promise of blockchain is huge. And large companies are continuing to hire and expand their blockchain teams, incl. Facebook, Amazon, Microsft, EY, Deloitte, IBM, and Oracle, to name a few. So, it should be well worth the effort to become familiar with how blockchain works, what its perceived benefits are, and as a developer starting building on top of them.

This is the problem with "Blockchain" in one paragraph.

The Bitcoin block chain has been tried in many different situations. So far there is very little show beyond electronic cash. Not inventory control, not voting, not land registration.

The one other application that might be considered mostly viable is timestamping. Bitcoin is a timestamping server, after all.

The good news is that the problems electronic cash solves are getting worse every year. Privacy. Deplatforming. Weaponization of the dollar and other local currencies.

The bad news is that Bitcoin is also good at running itself, which means there isn't a lot of room for startups in the traditional sense. There may be room for sponsored non-profits such as Blockstream and Lightning Labs. There the funder model seems to be "improve Bitcoin and the value of your holdings will increase."

Improving education for underserved populations does not necessitate removing competition from PhD programs and post docs, or really even from colleges. Many of the people you are talking about don't even finish high school. It would take at least a decade of concerted effort to improve education in underserved communities to the point where denizens could legitimately be successful in advanced degree programs en masse. Also notice that this announcement did not come on the heels of any such announcement of an investment in education, and that none has been planned. I would be completely behind any effort to fix education here and I agree with you that one is needed, but this policy doesn't address the problem of poor education in underserved communities, it simply creates a new brain drain problem.
This approach seems a bit weird to me. While I appreciate them separating the models of Traditional and Simplified Chinese, I think I might prefer them to be combined (perhaps even including Japanese Kanji), and instead provide a way for the user to specify which language or regional variant is expected so characters matching the expected variant are simply given a higher score.
Yeah, long term. Also, idk if that was the intention or if it will work. I just tried to think of any theoretical benefits.

Not shure what universities are doing. There are a lot of them. So far I've heard that Harvard will continue charging the same while pushing big chunk of students online.

You're right about benefits of foriegn capital flowing into US through international students. Net result can very well be negative.
> Namely that it would be expensive to open source it with little benefit in return.

Would you describe exactly what will be expensive in releasing the source code to software that was developed in house? Does it have lots of dependencies on proprietary software? If so, why?

> Namely they want one location to find software, and one location to serve software.

And this, is the killer. This is exactly what the people at Linux Mint do not want. This is why F-Droid exists on Android. Yes, free software can be distributed on the snap store or on Google Play, but ultimately these are proprietary platforms controlled by one corporate entity whose interests may not be aligned with those of the community. Users of community Linux distros demand choice in where they obtain software.

> That and the whole aspects of malware/trust goes out the window.

Malware has already been successfully pushed to the Snap Store. The idea of "trust" here is also antithetical to open-source and software freedom. Rather than trusting software because it has verifiable source code, we now trust software because it came from a store that removes well known malware.

The problem with requirements to be explicit is that they just turn into dense legalese. You say "efficiency of what" thinking they're going to list a specific thing, but then they list every specific thing. Is it software or hardware? No, software and hardware. Is it efficiency in runtime performance or in user interface behavior? Both.

Asking animal, vegetable or mineral doesn't actually make it more specific if they can still get to "all of the above" by just listing every option individually.
