Nah, that's not a real problem.

> but Mormon families still tend to be very large

I think you'd be surprised. Mormon families are still larger than average, but there are plenty of Mormon families with just one or two kids. Not to mention that there are going to be plenty of "pre-kid" adults, or empty nesters around, and they need homes too. What reason is there to make most of the land exclusively single-family homes on big lots?

2. You can still have access to a backyard with multi-family housing. Where I live now in Munich, you have lots of small (or large) apartment complexes with shared backyards that kids play in all the time.

3. There's all kinds of ranges of housing in between "single family home with large front and back yards" and "massive apartment block surrounded by sea of asphalt". Duplexes, 4-plexes, and townhomes all make for increased density.

In any case, why not loosen the regulations and let the market decide? If there really isn't demand for apartment buildings, then developers won't build them, since they like money and all.
Nice work, congrats!

My 2 cents: Work on validating your pricing! I see very little differentiation between the 10 and 20 usd/mo tiers, and my gut feeling was "they're offering wayyyy too many nice things in the 10 usd tier!"

Sorry to "hijack" this, but I wonder if someone can either debunk this being by Rosa Luxemburg, or give me a pointer towards a source? I love this quote, but I'm skeptical to say the least.

My dear,

Have you noticed how those who move, move fast? And those who don’t, just stand still; motionless?

Yes, you can go ahead and rant to me about how an object in motion stays in motion, and how an object at rest stays at rest. But, I think there’s more to this than physics.

I think those in motion have seen something the others have not; their imprisonment.

While those who do not move, do not notice their chains.

Truly yours,

Rosa Luxemburg
Very interesting idea.

I'm a bit worried about pickpockets though with the pockets so low. Right now if I'm worried about them (I live in Barcelona where they are a major pest!) I put my hands in my pockets. That won't work if they're so far down.

However I do love rethinking common things we take for granted, especially about clothing. For one I don't understand how the common business suit is so popular. It looks really old-fashioned (has hardly changed design over the years), has all sorts of non-functional appendages like those flaps on the jackets, collars, cuffs, ties, nonfunctional pockets, buttons you're not supposed to use etc. They're super uncomfortable, restrictive and sweaty. And they're really generic, everyone from a store manager to a president wears them. And for what? Everyone in business wears them so they're not proving anything.. It's almost like a uniform. Humanity shouldn't be that shallow :) Uniforms are about stripping a person of their identity whereas business and politics is all about being more distinctive than others. I really don't get why this is such a thing :)
The trouble is that "saints" or "Saints" already has a meaning, which is not "members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints".

(In fact, it has multiple long-standing meanings, of which that is not one.)

I'm not saying you aren't entitled to call yourself that: of course you are. But you shouldn't expect other people to go along with it, any more than if you decided to call yourselves "Good People" or "Scientists" or "Turks".

Of course this problem occurs over and over, because groups of people love to give themselves self-congratulatory names. Sometimes they succeed: consider "Democrat[ic]" (in US politics) and "Orthodox" (in Christianity and in Judaism), for instance. But it makes me sad every time.
I'd like to hear the rationale of these scientists that extraterrestrial life could be indistinguishable from terrestrial.

> They implement this pocket strategy and work well for me.

Superficially, perhaps. But the zipper inclusion makes your example the "strategic" difference that properly considers the importance of what might be stored in such a pocket. IMHO, the author's approach is overshadowed by cost cutting, where the narrative serves to distract the reader with discourse on "method" that doesn't quite align with the original problem description.
99% and 1% or most Fail Over setups hardly work in practice smoothly unless you have lot of money to invest in teams and hardware and do DR drills constantly and keep standby infrastructure ready to handle full load . It may work in your industry where the infra cost is trivial compared to the risk and money being made. In typical SaSS apps infra is enormous part of the costs, keeping standby ready is not feasible at all.

It is also that typically even in large organizations companies with the money and people, fire drills and DR drills go the same way, it is known there is going to be drill and people react accordingly. Chaos Monkey style testing/drills rarely happen.

I would say building resiliency to your architecture is the key to this. Just like having a single customer > 50% revenue is enormous risk for any business , relying on any single service provider is also enormous risk . In manufacturing it is common to insist on second source for a part, IBM did that to Intel for the PC which is why AMD got into x86.

In this case a proper HA would serve better - minimum of 2 CDN networks always sharing 50% of the load and the have capacity to double if required. If they cannot scale that much then distribute to 3-4 and keep traffic no more than 25-35% per provider , such that a loss one means only additional 10%-20% traffic to the rest.

Also it is important that two service providers should be actually different, if they both depend on the single and the same ISP or backbone to service an area, it is not going to be effective.

The principle should apply across the entire infra Name Servers, CDNs, load balancers, Storage, compute, DBs, Payment g/w and registrars ( use multiple domains example.com example.io each with one registrar).

That's a very disingenuous claim, since this is obviously political, not about clarity. Or, do you mean it's being changed because of the use of "black" specifically? In which case that's not being questioned here, we're talking about why they see "black" as a specifically racial color.
I’m less optimistic. It’s just too easy for the AMA to say “hey we are saving lives and we need to make sure we have the best of the best!”. I think a parallel system needs to happen which won’t be controlled by AMA. It will happen eventually but it will probably take a long time.
You are missing the point. Solving the truck problem is exactly what you shouldn't do, well, at least until your system is resilient. Because it could be something entirely different, it could be law enforcement raiding a data center and your wall around it won't protect it from them. So instead you approach the system in terms of what it has to rely on and all possible states of the thing it has to rely on. Which maps to a very small number of decisions. Like whether a server is available or not. If it's not available it really doesn't matter which of the infinite things that could happen to it or to a data center it is in actually did, you simply don't return it to users if it's not available and have enough independent servers to return to users in enough independent data centers to achieve specific availability. It's really not difficult.

I understand that most of those leetcode corporations don't care much about resilience, likely even incapable of producing highly reliable systems, and may give you a false impression that reliability is something of an unachievable fantasy. But it's not, it's something we have enough research done on and can do really well today if needed, we are not in titanic era anymore.

I have high confidence in these things (not in "predicting the unforeseeable"), because I've done them myself. My edge infrastructure had like half an hour of downtime total in many years, almost a decade already.
That’s fair. In retrospect I was thinking more of cultural capital (which I’ll chalk up to how contemporary critiques of Bourdieu tend to conflate them).

As a thought experiment: I run a web store, and I sell funny hats. I’m looking to sell more hats.

Is it unethical if I keep track of how many people buy which hats, so I know which kinds of hats sell best?

What about if I keep track of what hats each of my customers buys, so that I can tell which hats I might want to bundle together into hat packs?

Maybe I’m not super technical, so I pay a 3rd party service to analyze my transaction logs and tell me the above answers.

Or I realize some hats aren’t selling, so I check to see if people are going to that page and just not purchasing, or never going to that hat’s page at all.

To say that sites use tracking to “manipulate” users is playing pretty icky word games. Yes. The purpose of all marketing is to “manipulate”. So are opinion columns in newspapers. Job interviews are an employer manipulating a candidate and a candidate manipulating an employer. Manipulation is just a scarier-sounding word for “persuasion”.
This sucks, but plenty of companies don't get paid when they want to.

If they hold 25% for 28 days and that's a huge issue, you can either switch providers or get a line of credit to give you some cushion for these events. Credit is is a reasonable and even conservative option if you know your chargebacks are temporary and you're only using it for costs you will be able to eventually cover when the 25% is released.

Such is the life of being a business owner, but luckily there are plenty of solutions to these common problems if you ask your peers. This is by no means a crisis for someone who's been in business for a while, just an annoyance.
I agree with that. Amazon pretends to sell you "burstable" instances, but they know that most people are going to be bursting at the same time a day because most applications want low latency and host them close to their users, applications that are worth paying for are used by businesses, and business users use the app between 9-5 on weekdays. As a result, you don't get much bursting and the instances aren't much cheaper than non-burstable instances.

Good resource utilization will only happen when you have non-interactive tasks that can be scheduled to smooth the demand. When I worked at Google, this is something we had; plenty of people were willing to run their mapreduces overnight, and take advantage of the purchased interactive capacity that other services needed during the day. In the real world, I've never had anything like that. Users use our website during the day. Employees use the internal apps during the day. Developers send their code off to CI during the day. That means from 9-5 there isn't enough capacity (builds have to wait) and from 5-9 the computers are just sitting there bored. I don't see a way around it, even at cloud provider scale, just because so many users are like me. I might be willing to send CI builds off to some part of the world where it's nighttime -- if you'll give me the CPUs for free. Nobody appears to have written software to do this (maybe the big CI providers do this in the background; but I haven't noticed a lot of latency while ssh-ing to CircleCI jobs for example), so we sit here using computers very inefficiently.

Ultimately, computers are cheap enough that it doesn't matter. I have a 10 core workstation that sit idle most of the time. Having a fast build when I need one is nice; and the cost to have those cores sitting idle is minimal. I would be happy spending even more money on my workstation for that reason. I imagine people treat their servers the same way, and aren't tempted to tweak things because their workloads are interactive and autoscaling introduces latency.
For those interested in these things, here's a music/synesthesia study that I stumbled across last week that sounds pretty cool.

There's a reason why every successful social media platform has scummy, creepy, privacy-invading practices. It's because if one doesn't do that, one doesn't build an audience.

Ditto with email trackers ... if you don't do it, people will fall off your list, and you won't build and retain your audience.

These practices work, and have emerged from the evolutionary processes of the web in general. There's no point in lamenting them, because the muggles will fall for them every time, and they will continue to become more invasive and more unpleasant.
Maybe the sparseness of the population plays a significant role. Its a lot easier to develop conflicts in more populated areas.

SLC is a great deal more diverse than it was 10 years ago. As an anecdote I moved here four years ago and I've overheard conversations in more and more different languages as I walk around the downtown area. My circle of friends is probably more diverse than it was when I lived in LA since it's largely people who moved here for the University of Utah or SLC-based tech jobs. Also, I believe SLC is at least 30% Hispanic, but it's pretty segregated both geographically and culturally.

The rest of Utah is lily white though, and the tech scene (its centroid is somewhere between SLC and Provo) still feels heavily white and Mormon. I didn't used to mind as much because we would travel to CA once a month, but with the COVID travel moratorium I'm really missing diversity of all kinds.

Why Is It Called “Punycode”?
Not for VMs but definitely for containers and functions (like AWS Lambda). You can configure them with soft and hard limits but also invocation counts and runtime.

Doing the same in a VM might be possible (the technologies exist) but it's often the task or workload that needs to be modified to support it and when you are already doing that a step to containers, functions or horizontal scaling is just as easy (or hard). Horizontal scaling based on load is pretty common (classic ASGs but also overcapacity cost bidding based scaling).

Starlark, because reasons.
Not exactly relevant to this context, where the question is "[Why is there] simultaneous shortage and oversupply [of programmers for the EA movement?]".

People don't post job ads or tweet about wanting to work in EA because their friends and family are nagging them about it.

My answer to the question is that people have an idealized version of the person they'd like to be, and this differs from how much work they're actually willing to put in to follow through. This goes for both the people claiming to want to find work and the company (i.e. people) claiming that they're looking for someone to hire. In other words, there is a simultaneous shortage and oversupply because people are flakes.
Thanks for the tip! I had no idea about this.

I reserve the right to be fully satisfied only after the majority of random Makefiles I find on the net or emitted from build systems will use that convention.

To add another thing to the pot, let me repeat some things already mentioned or implied:

Make is too focused on files. Not every input is a file, and not every artifact is supposed to be a file either.

Make doesn't allow choosing the update criterion per file. Sometimes it's the has, sometimes the timestamp, and sometimes the parsed AST of the source code that should trigger a rebuild when changed.
lol that was me sorry about that xD
