Why would you put something like that in bashrc?!
Good question! 'Sucking' here is a bit like 'centrifugal force' - it's a real thing, but only in the right frame of reference.

In the case of centrifugal force, it's a real thing in a rotating reference frame, but doesn't exist in an inertial reference frame (because in that frame the acceleration is towards the center, ie. centripetal).

In the case of suction, it's a real thing when your zero-pressure reference point is above 'absolute zero' pressure, such as when you're measuring gauge pressure. In this case you can have an area of 'negative pressure' which is 'sucking' the surrounding fluid into it.

I think the use of the term "Meat" highlights my greatest fear with robots fighting our wars for us, doing our killing for us. Our dismissal of our humanity, compassion and empathy. The warriors coming back from WW2 brought with them a deep desire to not do that anymore. The gamification of killing eachother. Calling ourselves "meat". In every other context, for thousands of years, we have been referring to ourselves as human beings, people, folks, neighbors, etc. Now at the very beginning of this technology we are throwing all that out and going with "meat". Contempt for the amazing gift that humanity is, thats what using "meat" to describe ourselves indicates.

Digital Transformation Is a Scam
They have the server software. There's a couple ways they could get it. 1.) They could have hacked the C2 server or a development network, like you are talking about. 2.) The server could be forward deployed to a cloud provider or other infrastructure and law enforcement served a subpoena for a copy of the cloud server. The second seems just as likely as the first.
The practically non existent land use is a massive savings. It runs down a long valley which is extremely space constrained and mostly sits over the river. By comparison the largest cost of road networks in cities is opportunity cost. Something like 20% of the surface of NYC is roads, that’s hundreds of billions of dollars worth of land and massive amount of lost property taxes.
OK, thanks for spotting that! I will see what the issue is.
Where I'm from, Northeast US, town vs. city is a matter of how the government is organized. I grew up in a city of 10k people, and later lived in a town of 50k. Here, at least, a village is a designation often used to indicate the "town center" or more densely developed areas of otherwise fairly spread out towns.
Independent contractors have the same pricing ability as drivers. They can’t force people to pay higher rates any more than a driver, they can just reject jobs that don’t pay enough.

If you’re a plumber and you’re charging $1,000/hr, you’ll certainly be punished for your high prices and for rejecting work after you’ve already accepted (your public reviews on Yelp, etc will take a hit).

“Real independent contractors” have much less power than you think in a competitive market.
I think you may have misinterpreted what I said. I didn't claim that you'd feel like you were covering the distance faster than light. I was saying that as you go faster (relative to your destination), space contracts ahead of you so the distance becomes shorter than it would if you were moving slower.
>The world’s biggest social network is working out what steps to take should President Trump use its platform to dispute the vote.

And what about when Trump's opponent and the opponent's party use Facebook and other platforms (and almost the entirety of the press) to dispute the vote? Like what actually happened after the 2016 election? The massive, well-funded campaign fronted by Lawrence Lessig and covertly funded by the Clinton campaign[1]?

[1] Yes, Clinton ended up losing more electoral votes to defectors than Trump. But that doesn't change the fact that the campaign existed and received much publicity, while no media pundit or elected solon ever demanded that Clinton ever speak out against the brazen attempt to subvert the outcome of the election.
Text is absolutely not the highest bandwidth medium for imagination. Think about what a textured polygon can convey about a character in just one glance: color, clothing, dimensions, facial expression, posture. It'd take paragraphs to convey all this information in text, but with graphics it takes but a glance.

If what this quote is referring to is the fact that text based mediums force us to use our own imaginations, it's actually because of the opposite: text is exceeding low bandwidth for communicating imagination, and because of that low bandwidth users need to fill in the gaps with their own.

> Custom roms are a lot more risky, there are 100s of different flavors made by relatively unknown developers and even though they are technically open source, I find it highly unlikely that none of them contain malware. I mean you can introduce a memory corruption bug in less than few characters, these custom roms are practically unauditable.

Depending on your phone and threat model, it's not obvious that this is worse than the alternative. Given that there have been phone manufacturers that outright shipped malware, and most phones stop getting security patches after a few months and then steadily accrue CVEs, it may be better to chance a 3rd-party ROM.

25 years ago, junior sysadmin me had to restore our server's drives from tape. To my horror, all the backup tapes were corrupted. It took a while to figure out what happened; my 2am cron job script basically did this:

run_backup & eject_tape

Fortunately, we were able to reconstruct the server's contents from individual workstations, but I had to endure "how's the backup?" ribbing for many months.

I also changed the script to:

run_backup && test_backup && eject_tape

so if the tape was still in the drive when I got in to work, I knew to check on things.
How is Germany handling ride-sharing?
Yes, you are right about that. This situation is slightly better with AMT bracket moving up with Trump tax changes. But the basics still apply.

I corrected by saying "vesting rules still apply". But the tax consequence (AMT or otherwise) will discourage one to exercise as the estimated stock price becomes bigger and bigger as the company grows.

If you do month 1: Strike price = $1. Pre-exercise, file 83-b with tax. Pay 0 AMT. You quit after 2 years, get to keep half the shares, company might pay you back the principal for the lost half (yes, there is a risk there)

If you do this 2 year when you quit, may be perceived value of stock is $10. Now you out-of-pocket cost = $1 + AMT tax on (income + $9). Moreover, you probably hate the company when you leave, so even more unlikely you will want to buy your options. I have friends who have lost $100k+ with that attitude.

These days, AMT cut off is much higher, but this could apply to some of the valley's sought after engineers.
Do you feel you are a top earner in your field? If not, do you think you will become a top earner in your field?

Do you know if you earn more than your colleagues?
Yep, just think of eukaryotes themselves -- symbiosis between entirely different kingdoms of life (bacterial mitochondria & archaea host) is built into the very lifeform itself. And when they form multicellular creatures, and then those multicellular creatures hang with other creatures... it's so blurry.

Not only are we intensely focused on categorizing, we also have the need/instinct to identify "things" and "units" and "selves" -- when in reality those lines 'between things' don't really exist except as a tool for cognition.
This is complete nonsense. Mistakes have always happened but the FAA was highly instrumental during the 20th century in driving down accident rates.

And even if that weren't the case, you're ignoring all of my other points, particularly the one about the floppy system being proven in the field for years, and your failure to provide examples of accidents attributable to the use of floppies.

Come up with some sources specific to your concern about floppies if you can, or this conversation has run its course.

> It's called "paying your dues" and exists in all industries. You need to earn respect of your new colleagues by doing some of that shitty work and doing it well. If all goes well, in a couple of months you'll be a part of the in-group and will get the interesting tasks.

"Pay one's dues"
"Earn respect"
"Part of the in-group"

I am sorry but this is not my experience at all. What you've described is how gangs work, not companies.

I am hired to work on certain areas due to my skills and knowledge. Shitty tasks are everyone's (in the team) responsibility. I am not hired to "pay my dues" and "earn respect" to become "part of the in-group". I'd leave that initiation ritual to other, uh, industries.
Not sure if I necessarily agree that the issue we face in the US has to do with "tyrany of the majority", but even if it does I would never claim that the system is perfect, hence the "try to mitigate this" part of the statement above.
The eggplant and all the euphemistic emojis that go with it, eye roll emojis which are so inconsistent between platforms they range from "looking at the text above" to "I'm high AF get me outta here", and most of the anger emojis which range from "gritted teeth" to "Jack Nicholson in the Shining". Just recently figured out what the Slack :tada: emoji is and it's an upside down birthday hat with confetti coming out of it which only became visible when I used a low res monitor - tada! Wouldn't have made any sense without explicit text or blown up vector graphics.

I've been using smartphones since I was a teenager and the internet since the turn of the century so I grew up without the benefit of unicode emoji. Like a sibling said, they're kanji except the cultural context that defines them is extremely fluid (and prone to flights of fancy by designers looking to get promoted).

My parents did this for me. As I got older (highschool) it was paid quarterly. It even encompassed clothing/school essentials, eventually. Part of the beauty of it was that I was incentivized to work during the summers to supplement it. I turned out very frugal, was treasurer of my org in university, and now save > 50% of my income living in SF. This works.
PHP, since version 7.0, has been a much improved language since when many people started hating on it. They have been consistently moving the spec forward and making improvements.

Do we have any idea where the big expenses stem from?

It's hard to form useful judgements on a single data point.

> In relative numbers, operating expenses changed from 157% of revenues in the first half of 2019 to 107% of revenues in first half of 2020 [while revenue grew 49% yoy].

Seems to suggest that a lot of the expenses were elective, or non-elective but have a sub-linear correlation to revenue growth. Honestly, these numbers are not as bad as the opinions interspersing the numbers makes it out to be.

Sounds to me like a private company that's tightening the belt while leaning into being a public company and continuing to grow.

> Most of the top search results and Wikipedia entries tap out on cultures prior to ~5,000-~3,000 B.C.

This is mostly because the evidence that links places to cultures taps out before around 5000BCE. There is of course evidence of large scale settlements prior to that time, but we have little hard evidence about how those map to peoples or cultures, living or extinct, due to lack of artifacts that definitively tie them to a particular culture. After that, we are left with things like projecting population migrations from linguistic evidence.

Perhaps the closest we might find are the remains of 10-30k year old indigenous settlements in Australia, of which we can be fairly confident of at least the set of cultures that produced them.
>Completely anecdotal but I bring this question up every time I drive in an Uber and overwhelmingly the drivers tell me they want to stay independent.

In Illinois, the distinction is one based on how the municipality was incorporated:

The town of Cicero, the village of Winnetka, the city of Evanston—though some of these designations seem quainter than others, they have nothing to do with population or size. “It really all depends on which statute under state law the municipality incorporated under,” says David Bennett, executive director of the Metropolitan Mayors Caucus, an association of 272 area leaders who convene to collaborate and converse about the health of the metro area. Towns are municipalities that were created prior to the 1872 passing of the Cities and Villages Act, which set out standards and guidelines for incorporation. Established in 1867, Cicero happens to be the only town in the Chicago area. The distinctions between the terms city and village are more ambiguous. In states such as New York, “cities and villages can differ according to how the state defines them, in terms of the procedures for setting them up, the governance structures and the powers allotted to them automatically by the municipal code,” says Joshua Drucker, assistant professor of urban planning and policy at DePaul University, who researched the topic when he moved to Illinois four years ago. “But in Illinois, there’s very little difference. The largest remaining difference is that villages must have exactly six trustees, whereas cities may have six or more aldermen.”

I live in a village (Oak Park) with population 52,381 adjacent to a city (Berwyn) with population 54,391 and a town (Cicero) with population 80,796
True, with the Angular CLI I believe this has even the default for a while locally but I have yet to encounter incremental compilation during CI e.g.

Also running tests is quite time consuming of you do not run them in parallel.

I guess bazel would be a good fit with Typescript.

As for deno, I did not follow the topic but I hope they at least annotated with JSDoc so developers can get some linting.
> I think some systems don't have a stable kernel interface. The system-provided libc is that interface.

In fact, a lot of systems don't have a stable kernel interface, Linux is the exceptions here. In Microsoft Windows, one must link against Kernel32.dll to communicate with the kernel. On OpenBSD, the libc provides the stable syscall interface (and in fact the kernel will refuse syscalls from outside the libc as a security measure, see [0]). MacOS and Solaris are two other OSes where, if I understand correctly, syscall ABI is not guaranteed and must go through a common library. Go used to embed syscalls, and ran into a lot of problems because of this.

> It makes more sense when you read Torvalds' initial argument.

I did but:

> AVX-512 draws so much power that (especially in laptops) they have to lower the base clock of the entire CPU. This doesn't matter too much if you're doing HPC, because lowering the clock 20% but gaining 200% in throughput is still a net win.

Is still basically true for encoding tasks and other SIMD-heavy operations.

> But the computer can't change the clock speed instantly, so there's a fairly large penalty for just executing some AVX-512 instructions and then immediately trying to go back to other tasks (which is what happens if you try to use AVX-512 to implement memcpy).

This is interesting on this point: https://travisdowns.github.io/blog/2020/01/17/avxfreq1.html

There is a cost to switching frequencies but the cost is generally lower than the performance impact of the new frequency itself. Which kind of makes sense given how frequently dynamic frequency scaling and turbo boost/turbo core like to change the frequency of the CPU. That said, just because somebody's decided to try and use a CPU feature sub-optimally (e.g. by implementing memcpy with AVX-512 so that it gets used sporadically in the context of otherwise non-AVX related work), I don't think that necessarily justifies removing it. It does sound like the power management for it ought to be fixed, though.

Is it just me or is the idea of having power management for a specific instruction extension rather than integrating it into the rest of the dynamic frequency scaling/turbo boost TDP management kind of a smell?

But I do kind of buy into the idea in the sibling comment that the transistors might have been better spent on the iGPU, though - at least in the short term.
THank you for sharing that. I hadn't thought of that in that way before.
