It's possible, if annoying, to simply wait 5 minutes between trips while the elevator car's air clears. It has to be handled differently (eg using a fan) if it would take 12 hours for the air to clear.

Given that we are all talking about COVID-19, as caused by the SARS-Cov-2 virus, (and not any other disease), the exact word or phrase used in popular media is less important, what's important is for people to recognize that breathing someone's are 5 minutes later is hazardous. Would you even know if there was person in the same elevator car as you 5 minutes before you came along? How can you recognize if they were actively symptomatic and positive and not wearing a mask. What it's called by scientists is less important compared to outright science denial going on.

Even before "global warming" was renamed "global climate change", people are able to learn and understand the phenomena that it refers to, even if there are idiots that say "global warming isn't real" because they felt cold at some point. With today's instant access to information, I want to push back against the idea that everybody who cares to ask is too dumb to learn the difference between "airborne" (12 hours) vs "airborne droplets" (5 minutes).

- Trump cannot, legally, go over Disney.

- Trump goes after TVA and not Disney.

- Trump is a dictator.

- Dictators do as they please.

- Trump should go after Disney.

- Trump has not gone after Disney.

I wonder where the problem is with these set of assertions?

Question. Name me something Trump did that:

1. Is obviously unconstitutional.

2. He continued doing is after courts found it unconstitutional.

3. Isn't something previous presidents did.

I'm willing to relax #3 if you are willing to acknowledge that previous presidents were just as dictatorial in their disregard for the constitution, and therefore Trump abuse of power is a non-issue.
> Anyone know of any progress in 6G, that would improve privacy in this area?

One of members of numerous 6G working groups is Huawei. If you remember, they recently proposed to replace the whole IP protocol with one where every packet must be cryptosigned by ISP.

This SIM feels like a complete BS. IMSI is managed by the phone, not SIM.
Considering that part of the TVA's original purpose was to provide jobs for American workers during the Great Depression, "don't hire H1Bs or send jobs overseas" actually seems like a reasonable stipulation.
The parent comment's point is that you can get info for the user from google by doing this. ie.

1. google sends you a bid request, which contains the user's demographic/interest information

2. you respond to it with a bid, which has a unique tracking id

3. if your bid wins, your ad gets served. from there, you can serve a javascript payload that fingerprints the user. at this point you can create a huge database mapping of device fingerprint and ip (probably unique, but also pseudonymous) to interest/demographic data.

4. (optional) you can correlate the data you've gotten with third party databases to augment the data you already have. I'm not sure how viable this is. You can get more demographic information, but deanonymizing the pseudonymous identifiers from step 3 might be difficult to impossible.

All of this only really works if you can fingerprint the user, which might be against the ToS of most ad exchanges. They're probably also on the lookout for this type of thing, because you can imagine this is pretty important business data. However, if you're big enough, you might be able to convince the ad networks to let you fingerprint for "fraud prevention" purposes.
According to the article linked, Trump wants the new CEO to make less than $500k/year. Yet, according to this article from 2019, the CFO, COO, general council & chief nuclear officer are all making well over that. Who the hell is going to take the CEO job?

> "By you saying, "they're actively misleading," I'm assuming you're attributing malice to the NYT author."

Not so much malice, but having what they want to say predetermined and looking to frame support in what they already believe to be true. (Rather than trying to find out what's true and reporting that).

Basically the writer believes X to be true or wants to write a story that X is true and digs through things to find quotes they can narrowly pull to support X.

I don't really want to sacrifice runtime performance for compile time performance, so long as the compilation time is "reasonable", but so far we've mostly been having our cake and eating it too. The eliminating-invalidations work for Julia 1.6 is a great example of that.

When it comes to explicit trade-offs, like setting the optimization level, they've given us finer control by letting us specify it at the module level. Now Plots.jl can favor compile time, while I'll numerical libraries can favor runtime.

> but it's public money ... I think it makes sense to hire locally and I don't think for a second Americans would have a problem with that.

TVA is a government owned corporation, but it's fully self funded. So they're not spending public money other than insofar as TVA costs get passed to the electric bills of anyone whose local electric utility is purchasing electricity from TVA.

TVA has over 10k active employees and has only ever had 10 H1B employees (all hired between 2001 - 2008)[1]. And all of their H1B hires fell into either electrical engineering or product/financial risk analysis, and all located within Nashville, TN or Chattanooga, TN. Their usage of H1B employees seems far more indicative of localized hiring difficulty, rather than some pattern of H1B abuse. I've lived in both of those places, and they both have risen in popularity and desirability throughout the last decade. Having hired in Nashville before, people have become far more willing to relocate to Tennessee over the last few years. But that doesn't mean their was similar interest in relocating to TN for work 12-19 years ago when they filled these roles with H1B hires.

> So if the specification weren't important for you

That's not what OP said.
You're funny.

Nobody cares about AutoCAD any longer. For whatever task you have at hand there are better alternatives. Only people stuck in a time loop use it.

That being said: The AEC has a deeply troubling problem – It's full of people living in yesterday. There is no innovation. Technical advances are ignored.

In the aviation business CAD was started as early as the 60s, with the auto business following soon. Architects still drafted buildings with a pencil in 2D until the early 2000s. There is just so much resistance burdening everything.
“I did say that ‘If you buy it [TikTok]… a very substantial portion of that price is going to have to come into the Treasury of the United States, because we’re making it possible for this deal to happen.’ Right now they don’t have any rights unless we give it to them.”

Can anyone help me understand how this would work?
I think our different point of view is here:

>NASA tries to make a new launcher by itself, though with big inputs from your usual defence industry contractors.

The way NASA works is as follows; First, they put together a program proposal. Like they put together the Mars Exploration Program[1] in response to their 2014 Science Plan[2]. The program is allocated budget from NASAs annual budget allocation from congress.

Then they create science missions which are specific projects within a program that support the program goals. The current Mars mission, Perseverance, is an example.

Then they go out and contract with vendors for hardware that they can use in the mission. That includes everything from rovers to launch services.

In the case of Artemis, NASA created a program to return a person to the moon. And they started creating requirements for the equipment that they would need. And they put out those contracts and request proposals, which capable vendors will send in. Then they select from the proposals they get and issue a contract. The vendor then builds the part to the requirements, NASA verifies that it meets there needs, and then they pay the vendor. Often these contracts will have several milestones that have to be met, and the vendor will be paid for meeting milestones. This lets the vendor get some money to buy raw materials and start construction, etc.

Cost overruns occur when the vendor discovers something between milestones that wasn't anticipated and they negotiate with NASA for additional funds to cover that need.

NASA has never "tried to make a new launcher", that they have done is specified requirements for a launcher that doesn't yet exist and asked people to send them proposals for how they would build it.

And this is the problem, you can shift goalposts on the truth as you see fit no matter how repeatedly you are proven wrong.

Let's take a comparison:

> Facebook chief executive Mark Zuckerberg endured an hours-long grilling by dozens of U.S. senators Tuesday during which he repeatedly apologized

Is Zuckerberg now a card-carrying member of the standing government? Is he an agent of the state? Of course not. He's protecting his business.

Hi, first of all I'm really sorry this has been your experience. We are at a early stage of building the team and it took us longer than expected to get things off the ground. I myself joined in July and I am now responsible for the recruitment process for the backend team.

I know from experience that it is annoying not to have your emails answered so, again, I'm really sorry.

We have a new node.js / nginx app running in AWS and need it hooked up to an monitoring / alerting system, such as Grafana / Prometheus.

We have not used Grafana and Prometheus before and are looking for someone experienced with them and can recommend the right configurations for our use case. We were using Datadog in the past but want to transition off.

There are broadly two categories of events to track:

1. Default webserver and app metrics for node.js and nginx (cpus, memory, network activity, etc)
2. Application level custom metrics (number of connected players, number of transactions, etc). We want the system to support us creating new custom stats relatively easily.

Then, we want to have dashboards and alerts setup on these metrics.

We think the high level task breakdown might be:

* stand up Grafana / Prometheus server in AWS for real time metrics collection
* hook up server side node.js / nginx / host level perf metrics
* hook up server side node.js error monitoring
* hook up server side custom metrics
* setup charts, dashboards, and alerts in grafana/prometheus
* setup alerts going to our Slack & our Pagerduty
* document instructions on how to add new events, as well as key routine maintenance instructions

Maybe Grafana / Prometheus is not the right tool? Recommend something else!

This is a short term contract.

I've done some R&D during 4 months and I've chosen Stacker as our main CMS/Back-office for building a SaaS B2B product.

Here is our list of requirements:

- Providing a backoffice to our customers, where each user can connect to its own tenant and access its tenant's data only.

- The backoffice must be generated automatically from a data structure (db schema for instance)

- An API must be generated automatically from the data structure (allows to consume the data from web apps, mobiles, etc.)

- Ideally, this API would be a GraphQL server because that's what we use already.

- Advanced permissions and roles for internal users, basically need to configure who can view which tables, or has update/delete permissions on which tables. It must be flexible and non-blocking for our business evolution/future needs

- The backoffice needs to be flexible about UI components/views so that we can create our own workflows, views and components.

- Theming capabilities of the backoffice, per tenant, would nice to have.

- Also, my goal is to have as little to manage as possible, I'd prefer to use a managed cloud version over a custom "have-to-install-and-maintain" one if possible

I've tried many others, GraphCMS, Directus, Frappe, Django Jet, Strapi, and studied tons of other.
Stacker is the only one who is flexible enough for our use case.

Right, so what I'd say is that while latency improvements and runtime improvements to julia aren't necessarily in conflict, the core developer's time is a zero sum competition between these things (among others).

I'm just saying that for selfish reasons, I'd rather they spent their time on runtime and infrastructure improvements than reducing compile times.

And of course, I say this while acknowledging that I am in no position to demand how they spend their time.
