It's been a while since I have worked in this space but the underlying protocol (AIS) is incredibly lacking in terms of security due to the nature of plain text transmission & lack of authentication. I'm not sure if these issues have been addressed but below is some great research from 2014 on the matter [1][2].

>but will completely cut out future generations from system programming for the web

There's so many things where my competence is based on understanding the simple preceding system plus a good intuition of how the class of systems tend to be bungled up over the years. We don't pay down the accumulated complexity, and newcomers don't get the same luxury I do.

It really becomes noticeable with highschoolers and I have to chose between teaching useless but illustrative groundwork, or just explaining and expecting a combination of taking it on faith and memorization.
Thank you. I'm sorry that you feel like I was trashing the tech. I really didn't mean to come off that way by asking a question about a statement that the author made.
I would argue the market is social Git hosting, of which Gitlab and BitBucket are competitors.
Intermediates in computations. There's lots of quantities of the form z=x*y or z=x+y where while z may well be in the realm of "reasonably sized numbers that fit comfortably in 64 bits", x and y are (beyond) astronomical.
No country can stand up to America right now. The only reason America hasn't went on an all out global war is because they enjoy the cheap labor from the rest of the world.
>when my wife and I test drove a Model X in Chicago a few years back, one of the first things that the Tesla salesperson did was to encourage my wife to remove her hands from the steering wheel in Autopilot mode

My fiancee was told to do the same thing with her new Toyota Corolla when purchasing it with lane assist...not that it's totally related but sort of enforces your point more that the general public is where the issue really shines.

How does complying with China's laws in China will get you banned from the US? The US has all the right to establish the laws for products distributed on its own territory, as China does for its own.
Absolutely, it's preventative.
CVE-2020-1350 – Windows DNS Server Remote Code Execution Vulnerability
The Japanese 'penny' is (was?) made of aluminum. It looked less like currency and more like a token from a deluxe version of a board game. It was just too insubstantial.

As we've moved to zinc with a thinner and thinner copper jacket the US penny has drifted in that direction, but the relief is much more pronounced and makes it look more 'real'. Probably more expensive to make though.

My father was a photographer and over the decades he worked with many other photographers in his darkroom (this was in the era of chemical photography). After several hundred occasions when he and another photographer were looking at a print under the color balancer, he realized they were literally seeing different colors. My father, who was scientifically inclined, eventually worked out the average variation, which I want to say was two clicks on the projector, but I’d need to check to find out what that actually meant in terms of frequencies. It’s a small variation, but it was certainly real. Remember, these were all professionals with years of skill at judging color.

Hundreds, at least. It's been a consistent conservative tactic for decades, to the point where it is unremarkable. Unremarkable does not mean acceptable. See also Trump's lies. Trump lies so often that it's not worth noting each instance.

> And do you think it's possible for humans to claim they are being altruistic or inclusive, while actually being primarily hateful, deceitful, and destructive?

Tech career path through which I got success
I get the point you're making, but when such a tenured and large scale organization is subject to increasing ideological bias, couldn't we also cast the entire 'fact collection' activity as being in support of that bias? Who's to know if the facts are being selectively reported, or stitched together to tell one narrative instead of the whole truth? A similar argument applies to academia - biased researchers will selectively explore certain angles or tell certain stories, and the sheen of academia (the trust given to it) causes the results to be accepted even if they are incorrect.

Look, Go has way more to do with the experience of its creators than with their contact with the engineering culture of Google. The influences from Plan 9, Inferno, Limbo, and so on are all extremely apparent in Golang's design and were all born outside of Google. Very little of Google's spirit made it into Go.
Which makes his podcast a great resource.

The point is to hear what his interesting guests have to say, not for Rogan’s take on what he thinks they are saying.

Charlie Rose used to fill that role, until his bad behavior came to light.
Mostly that it's a single projection of an underlying data model. Where the projection is a snug fit, great. But typically folks want sets of things and suddenly it's a bit chatty.
I find that the more specialist the guest, the more interesting the conversation, especially when Rogan just shuts his mouth and listens to someone passionate about their field.

Lex Fridman, Brian Cox, and Sean Carroll had--in my opinion--super interesting and engaging episodes.

That being said, there are currently over 1500 episodes, so there are definitely a good number of fluff episodes in the mix as well.

Edit: Just thought of a couple more who I found quite interesting. Paul Stamets and Michael Pollen both discussed in their respective episodes research they both participated in, which made them continuous episodes with a fascinating topic.

What happens when people don't pay the fines? I am under the impression that a warrant for arrest would be issued by a Judge. At which point, I imagine you'd go to jail when apprehended.

While in jail, my understanding is that there is an increased likelihood of contracting COVID due to lack of social distancing and ability to more easily follow recommend guidelines to prevent infection.

I initially thought this was serious hyperbole and I still think it may overstate things a bit, but when I thought about it I actually had a really hard time coming up with counterexamples.

Yes although I’m more concerned about the CCP policing western discourse and influencing it based on the moderation policies and algorithm choices they make.

You already see organizations like the NBA, Disney, etc. self censoring to preserve their market in China so to assume a Chinese based company won’t do the same is a bit of a stretch.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with my statement. I didn't say Bari Weiss is definitely a racist because I know nothing about her, but we only have her side of the story. Racism is the discrimination. Being a racist is not acceptable. How it's determined is obviously not cut and dry, but that's what HR departments are for. People don't get fired over accusations, they get fired after investigations. I have seen this play once or twice and the burden of proof is usually pretty high, but having policies that disqualify people for exclusionary attitudes is absolutely the right thing to do.
According to the others on this thread it's related to the date when Kubernetes was released. It wasn't clear to me, but thank you, I think you raise another good point.

I'm one of those who moved from Gmail to Fastmail and the only thing I really miss is bulk sending, click tracking and other features GMass used to provide.

So me and my team figured out Fastmails API (how the frontend works plus JMAP) and implemented the "Mass Send" button straight into the Fastmail UI. We've got many features still to come like auto-followup, mail merge open/click-tracking.

So if you're using Fastmail give it a go!

Algorithm and moderation policies are opaque. They can be used to subvert a geopolitical rival and spread discord.

It’s pretty trivial to do that, and nobody would be the wiser.
Ah yes, but now you're describing requiring you to set up engineering regiments within your castle, some portion of which you could outsource to your cloud provider in the alternative situation. My point is that this security boundary that you posit as an advantage in your original post is simply not very interesting (and often harmful) on its own.
There is some digital communication between Qi chargers and devices so they can stop charging at 100% battery. So everything's there for some kind of "night mode" communication to exist, whether the phone's clock or DND mode or ambient light sensor triggers it.

It's a scam. They're implying level 5 capability is just around the corner, when none of the current hardware will ever get past level 2. The current cameras can't even stay clean enough to keep autopilot reliable, it'd be pretty foolish to rely on them for any kind of real self-driving.

I love my car but the FSD debacle is embarassing. A lot of people are finding out that they'll never get anywhere near $8K value from their pre-purchase, and they bought a license that expires when they sell the car. I expect a class action lawsuit eventually (I'm surprised it hasn't happened already).
My mother had her credit card info stolen online somewhere - the first two fraudulent hits were exactly $5k with payment memo saying it was going to some county's bail system (yeah, sure it was Visa, whatever you say).

Before grokking this article my initial thought was "everyone today seems to use hash tables or dictionaries". Dicts are everywhere in Python and Objects are the hash table used within JavaScript.

I read the whole Algorithm Design Manual[1] and it can be a bit dry so I'm actually very excited to read Grokking Algorithms to see if it will indeed be helpful for professional developers to ace their ds/algo exams.

TL;DR: accessing materializations is necessarily a snapshot.

This article reads as though the author hadn't shifted mindset from "the database will solve it for me" to "I'm taking on the relevant subset of problems in my use case". This seems off given that they're trying to sell a streaming product. They claim their product avoids problems by offering "always correct" answers which requires a footnote at the very least but none was given.

Point of note: The consistency guarantee is that upon processing to the same offset in the log that, given that you have taken no other non-constant input, you will have the same computational result as all other processes executing semantically equivalent code.

I take this sort of comment as abusive of the reader:

> What does a naive application of eventual consistency have to say about
>
> -- count the records in `data`
> select count(*) from data
>
> It’s not really clear, is it?

A naive application of eventual consistency declares that along some equivalent of a Lamport time stamp across the offsets of shards in the stream, the system will calculate account of records in data as of that offset. Given the ongoing transmission of events that can alter the set data, that value will continue changing as appropriate and in a manner consistent with the data it processes. The new answers will be given when the query is run again or it may even issue an ongoing stream of updates to that value.

Maybe it got better as the article went on...

I get nuanced views about the black lives matter movement, feminism, social media, etc. even blatant critiques about what tiktok is doing to young people (especially young women).

The question is whether you actually can eliminate locally. Australia was trying to, but they failed, and now they're starting to send cities back into lockdown. All the Asian and European countries I know of have made it clear that social distancing is here to stay and they don't expect to reach "safe" until a vaccine has been deployed.
Here in Austin our city had some decent plans to combat the coronavirus and deal with the shutdown. Unfortunately, Greg Abbott decided to override local leadership across the state and force reopening. Now our state leadership is having a slapfight over mask requirements being a violation of our state constitution while our medical groups are begging us to stay home or wear masks [1].

So if you ever wanted to see an example of what a place is going to look like without any leadership versus the virus, Texas is the place to watch.

Currently the only way to create an account is through GitHub login (we're going to add more options in the future). That means in order to write a review you have to log in with GitHub.

Behind the scenes, text reviews do not show immediately, we go over them and approve them manually, to verify there's not bad behavior, spam, offensive content, etc.

We plan on approving each text review ourselves manually until we're stretched too thin and this plan doesn't scale anymore.

> They are getting low level employees fired from their jobs

This is an interesting intersection. It either implies that all employers are left-aligned (not true) and therefore willing to fire employees that hold right-leaning opinions, OR that low level employees are so expendable that it literally any reason can get them fired if enough people complain.
They state in the press release:
