>To my knowledge, only two Western countries extend universal (rather than emergency) care for undocumented immigrants.

Not to derail, but extending public health care to undocumented immigrants in a pandemic just makes sense. Undocumented doesn't mean vaccinated, so there's a clear public interest in minimizing the absolute number of COVID-19 carriers, no matter their legal status.
I'm do not know if it does in the US. However, some countries have/had state-owned pharmaceutical companies that produce cheap generics.
Should words have shared meanings? Otherwise communication collapses. You promoted a mock-up and got interest to motivate building a product. That's great. Why use misleading words to describe it?

As an aside for everyone coming to the comments first before reading the article, PSU in the title is Portland State University not Penn State University which I immediately thought of when I saw PSU.

Basically, Portland State University is retaliating against a professor who showed that the peer review and acceptance process for various journals was woefully broken.

I wonder if it is finally time for me to give Arch a try. It's a shame that all my lab's machines run Ubuntu; although I find it solid, this sort of controlling behavior by Canonical seems against the spirit of FOSS.
Years ago I used KeePassX. It became stale, ugly, and didn't have a good Android app. KeePassX then moved to .NET, and didn't work well on Linux, so I looked around. I settled on enpass as it was a paid app without a subscription, and withyour choice of sync/backup. Enpass has excellent desktop/mobile apps with sync using your choice of cloud service. I'm very happy with it.

I just think it's weird that a supposedly open source company like Canonical would build close source infrastructure. Like, just develop it in the open to begin with?
For a pure state a measurement doesn’t improve our knowledge about the state of the physical system, it changes it (and we get information about the new state). The Bayesian updating applies to mixed states, where there exists “classical” uncertainty while for a pure state the uncertainty is purely “quantum”.

"Quantum measurement is nothing more, and nothing less, than a refinement and a readjustment of one’s initial state of belief. [...] Let us look at two limiting cases of efficient measurements. In the first, we imagine an observer whose initial belief structure ρ = |ψ⟩⟨ψ| is a maximally sharp state of belief. By this account, no measurement whatsoever can refine it. [...] The only state change that can come about from a measurement must be purely of the mental-readjustment sort: We learn nothing new; we just change what we can predict as a consequence of the side effects of our experimental intervention. That is to say, there is a sense in which the measurement is solely disturbance."

I can't imagine it being viable for most Western tech workers given the climate of human rights and politics. I am a tech worker, I even have a particular interest in China and know a little Mandarin but I would never live or work there long term given what I know.
Am I missing something here? A wave function is NOT a probability distribution! Wave functions have phase! The double slit experiment and bells paradox both clearly show that quantum effects can be created that cannot be explained in terms of classical trajectories that are simply unknown. Phase can cause wave functions to interfere with themselves, and so forth ... I can only imagine that Fuchs must deal with this in his thousands of pages, but the article makes it seem like his interpretation was one dismissed at the beginning because quantum mechanics demonstrably involves effects that cannot just be a due to a lack of classical state information.

That can only work for a short time. There is a feedback loop at play here and it will seek a stable equilibrium. The organization needs to solve its internal problem.

The move from estimates to story points is actually a part of this compensation already, companies pretend that story points are about giving the developers more freedom to our faces, but actually they are about taking our estimate that something can be done in a week and removing the word “week” so that it can be estimated as a couple days’ work instead by our supervisors.

The fundamental process is already, at most agile shops I have seen,

- I the dev am going to build in some unconscious safety buffer by giving an estimate that I'm 90% or 95% confident in,

- I am going to give myself more safety buffer consciously by doubling or tripling that estimate when I communicate it to my boss,

- my boss is going to give us even more safety buffer by lumping together all of our tasks and then adding another 50% of time to that

- and then they are going to give it to their non-technical bosses, who are going to survey this estimate for the project and insist that it needs to be done in 25% less time, it is urgent, we need it sooner than that.

Story points allow a bunch of this to happen without explicitly contradicting anyone. But the basic problems is much more fundamental and it is that management and engineering are being phrased as having opposed interests. This is a basic failure in any negotiation: once it turns into a zero-sum game, everybody loses. In turn, there is a set of books that pinpoint say deeper problem, as being focused on controlling costs rather than driving revenues—which we see in these story point quotas, gotta make sure you get your money's worth from the dev team.
Very tangential: wondering what Montaigne had to say about the New World led me to his OF CANNIBALS (somewhat in the genre of Tacitus' Germania), in which I learned that Seneca had foreshadowed Monty Python's Black Knight.

What was hard about self-hosting the official server? I found it a little resource heavy but their docker images make it all very simple to set up and run.

I lived with that for a while, and didn't like the size of the VPS I had to use to keep it stable, so I moved to bitwarden_rs, and I haven't noticed any missing premium features.

I like keepasxc also, but the thing that moved me from that to bitwarden was my desire to use my password databases in multiple places at once without conflicts. I think the bitwarden browser integration and phone integration is nicer, also.
> gloss over the n+1 query problem, but I find it to be a major shortcoming of the gql spec.

Because we needed geographic distribution so that we don't end up hairpinning our users, and they only run a single service so the value prop is much lower. We use route 53 to do geodns across a number of cheap instances around the world (which is also nice, let's you pick regions with cheap bandwidth but good latency to major metro areas). We currently have TURN relays in Las Vegas, New York, and Amsterdam and that gives us pretty good coverage (sorry Asia...you're just so damn expensive!).

But all of our APIs sit in one k8s cluster across two datacenters (Hetzner, with whom we couldn't be happier).

RipJeffBezos trends over claims ‘he drowned in Amazon river’
As wind resistance increases with the square of the speed and is the major resistive force when traveling by air it's really hard to become more efficient by going faster.

It's probably true that Concorde, with its supersonic optimized design would have been less efficient traveling at Mach 0.95, even when traveling at its optimum speed a subsonic optimized airliner is going to require significantly less fuel per passenger mile. I mean this is one reason Concorde failed: the oil crisis turned its high fuel consumption into a serious liability.
Looks like it boiled down to the IRB's take on the matter.

The school asserted that Boghossian had unethically
conducted research on human subjects with his
experiment. According to the school’s Institutional
Review Board, Boghossian would have needed to obtain
“informed consent” from the individuals reviewing his
hoax articles in order for his actions to have been
considered ethical.

Does this catch-22 mean no more investigative meta-research would be tolerated by universities? Even if those human subjects are kept anonymous, they're still afforded IRB protections? Is there anything we can know apriori that those subjects aren't actually subjected to anything high risk to them? Maybe that's a bad direction to take to even allow that?

Internet told me that there are a lot of average people who “dream” of existing products; they would “invent” technologies as boring as sliced bread and exhibit cognitive dissonance when shown the specimen of it.

Forget BitTube, Daily Motion, LBRY, or whatever other proprietary (company owned) video hosting site. The reason you've never heard of PeerTube is because it's a a community project who don't advertise their software, because it's not a product. It's free (as in cost and freedom) for anyone to to use and it works.

To add to this, using numbers is a common mistake for agile estimation. Better to use things like t-shirt sizes. The problem is estimates aren’t associative, but making them numbers geatly increases the odds that someone will try to add them together anyways. And the biggest mistake is to give the numbers units of time. An expectation that a 3 point story will take X hours is particularly bad as that reporting gets higher in the org chart, since the only focus will tend to be on the translated time.

Your gamification example and using agile velocity to rank individuals is it’s own dark pattern too. The team should be the unit when doing agile, everyone has their strengths and weaknesses, but ranking due to to ticket closes is lazy, and so many factors that increase team velocity. For instance just having someone on the team who can tackle the bigger ticket can hugely improve team performace, as can having someone good at closing lots of little tickets. Neither is necessarily more important to the team, but having them both can be really effective.

I can tell you from experience that point quotas however it’s measured is its own mistake, that will lead to substandard teams. I was lucky enough to have enough clout at a previous job that every time management tried to go this route I was able to push back long enough that general productivity had a chance to improve without this sword of damacles causing morale problems.

And if you work for a place that has billable hours, I’m sorry. Much of my advice, while applicable, may be trumped by needs around client billing. Hopefully you make enough money to deal with this kind of stress...

If the Vala folks and Gnome in general could be convinced to drop Vala in favor Dart, or move valac in the direction of accepting a language that looks like (a subset or a complex supersubset of) Dart, it could be an effective hedge against Google pulling out.

Reading through your post, I want to point out that all your insightful reasons why cryptocurrency should be shut down are actually acknowledged problems that have been worked on by many in the space leading to solutions that address different pain points you've brought up. Examples include stablecoins (this name is meant to be as ironic as you think it is), private blockchains (here's a hint, nobody is using these to buy drugs or demand ransom), blockchains protected by something other than "energy wasting" Proof of Work.

I do have a few points for you to consider that might help you see the value of all this experimentation for society:

- Imagine someone living in a country such as Cuba or Venezuela or Iran that wants to buy things online (no, not heroin) and why they might find the existence of something like Bitcoin or Ethereum useful.

- You call for it all to be shut down, but how exactly would that be accomplished? (Most) cryptocurrencies are open source software and in a fringe scenario where experimentation here only serves to improve the anti-fraud precautions surrounding traditional currencies, isn't that still of some value to our society?

Some might argue that these supposed benefits don't outweigh the existing harm and therefore there isn't net value to society and there I'd just say we need to agree to disagree.

Have I perhaps changed your mind that cryptocurrencies don't have any value for our global society?
