> Corporations are an easy scapegoat

When they lobby (pay) to get more influence than you have as a voter then I'd say they they are nnot just "scapegoats" but actually guilty together with the politicians they bri... I mean lobbied with. And corporations get to profit from this while the society as a whole pays the price for the fallout.

> political ideology on the left

Why do some people always need to turn everything into a political ideology thing? Contrary to your belief it adds nothing to your argument, if anything it subtracts most of the little weight it had to begin with. Off the bat after a single line your comment holds about as much weight as a wet paper bag.

> are obviously completely different and a very poor analogy.

Is it? It's the state banning something considered unhealthy in one way or another. Why is drinking 100% sugary drinks totally acceptable but a glass of wine or beer, or a piece of pornographic material are illegal?

> So... Following the logic

Then by all means, follow the logic don't just replace it with your skewed one and pretend that it was somehow a natural progression of what I said.

> then people can do whatever they want but live with the consequences.

So... Following your logic governments shouldn't be allowed to ban anything. But people can still do anything they want. They will just have to live with the consequences exactly as you said. In this case the consequence is that if you sell this stuff to kids you get a fine.

Ban them, tax them, disincentivize people to buy them, claw back from the corporations the costs of having a society hooked on, disabled, or slowly killed by those very products. It just has to be a clear sign that the state and the society at large shouldn't bear the costs of supporting a person who has severely undermined their health from the age their brain and body are still developing. And it's also society protecting itself by protecting kids from parents' mistakes.

Minimum wage gives more efficiency to spending power. These people are subsided anyway but if they are given foodstamps it's inefficient (I don't know how it work in US but here people won't eat most of it, even if poor, unless starving).

So if your goal as economy is to select for producing nice products at affordable rate then adding purchase decision to low income workers is best way to let them get out of powerty. Maybe they don't need shitty food produced by rich folk with connections to gov but computer for their childeren or some tool to start business?

Or just disassemble the binary and grep for avx-512 or avx2 instructions ?

Also importantly Apple consider it legitimate to refuse to notarise apps if you break unrelated rules that have nothing to do with distributing malware and don't give any reason to think you're shipping anything dangerous. This was part of their threat to Epic Games.
It would be nice if the OS automatically verified these checksums. That would have been a nice OS X feature, but instead Apple ignores the verification process that already exists and invents their own, with themselves in control.
Willamette Week is one of the two standard rags in the Portland area (the other is the Portland Mercury) and this story was also in the Oregonian (aka OregonLive) from your own link. It matters to Oregonians quite a bit; perhaps it's not interesting to folks who don't live in the area.

Edit: Also, it's worth keeping in mind that this is not a fresh story. The Oregonian covered it a year ago [0].

>Sometimes I wonder what the world would be like if we just said "that sucks" and required a full postmortem instead.

I see that attitude working with individuals. Most people takes their responsibilities seriously.

But for corporations it would never work. Corporations would do literally nothing and take the money if there were no consequences. Even when all the employees are good caring people, the corporation incentive is to maximize profit. Corporations are less than the sum of its parts when it comes to morality.
What about Android vs iPhone malware levels? I believe there’s a lot more Android malware than iPhone/iPad.

I mention this since these stores are more comparable in size than Mac v Windows.
> As for poorer people and countries, isn't this where the open source charities come in? Isn't this where the big FAANGs - including Apple - and the investors and everyone that earned billions off of software should come in?

It would be hilarious if Facebook, Apple, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Netflix, etc. decide to start a charitable foundation which just deposits $99 checks into Apple's bank account. They should do it. I wouldn't be able to stop laughing.
This is a very America-centric comment. Not everyone has that much expendable income, nor do they have a big house to build their private gym in.
That's a big "maybe", because apparently for them it's just a way to stop using Intel's outdated technology.

AMD is currently running circles around Intel and won't be that easy to beat, especially because they have much lower prices.
The last election I voted in was in 2008, voting in California against this stupid boondoggle-in-the-making. At the time, I lived in the northern third of the state which won't even share a line of latitude with a roadmapped high-speed rail line, but I knew my taxes would have to pay and pay and pay for this anyway. But I've since been fortunate to move out of the state so now I get to witness the predictable from afar.

I know we are all in love with the idea of high speed rail. I've been to Japan and have ridden the shinkansen alongside Mt Fuji (which is even larger in real life than it looks in pictures), so I definitely get the appeal. But I have zero faith in any state agency to be able to do it sensibly. Get private investors to do it. They will do it affordably, financially sustainably, and safely, and they won't steal money from all the citizens of the state to build something which won't be of use to many of them.
I’m sure the notoriety that comes from hosting a party so epic the mayor holds a news conference about it will lead to a dramatic uptick in rule-following.
Is this only affecting G suite? I still can send and receive email nornally.
"Free market" doesn't mean the parties have equal bargaining power (no two parties in the world do). It means that the parties are free to bargain directly with one another, without a third party (i.e. government) injecting the interests of those not party to the bargain.

A free market allows a farmer to trade barley with a buyer from another nation - an unfree market sees the government(s) disallow this due to protectionist policies lobbied for by unrelated farmers who benefit from decreased competition.

Nitpick: Not really. What you have to do is provide an offer for source code; accompanying the program, not after the fact. If anyone has not provided such an offer, they have already broken the GPL.
A prerequisite of drawing is knowing the thing you draw p.e. the human anatomy and knowing the perception tricks your brain does with the visual input and being able to master the physical use of a drawing tool in its variety. Then you compose with a goal in mind and observe very open, patiently and detailed while you make suggestive visual marks such that some details will work together to form a whole unity, and the whole supports the natural detailed variety. Playfully arranging paths for the eye of the viewer, such that while it travels over the drawing the perception meeting the viewers inner mental model of the world triggers an emotional response. Each of these things can be trained, and even non gifted can achieve reasonable results. You can use simplest tools and as long as human brains do no change too much they can relate to drawings which are 2000 years old.

For coding you must know how a program statement works, how hardware and virtual resources are working and ideally have a systematic analytical approach to construct and to define, identify and resolve misbehaviors. Have a mental goal how all peaces should work together, how they form a rigid stable architecture of unity, while also allowing a variety in further desirable transformations. Envision all possible desirable state and machine changes during runtime and later system extension and avoiding unwanted ones. At this point it leaves the right/wrong world view. Cutting an architecture out of the solution space of all possibilities, growing from bare bones, little peaces to a complete system. Each of these things can be trained, and even non gifted can achieve reasonable results.

While we can learn from good drawings it is not so easy to learn from good programming examples.

The problem with code is that while we are often working with same principles like imperative functions and stack machines since 50 years, the technical application environment is still constantly scaling up and while it is conceptually never new it keeps working only during short periods, so no long term solution are envisioned. Further more the result is not open to an easy perception or naive judgement (besides app rating maybe) and the result is often unlinked to the creator. An envisioned whole system is no longer needed as we have monopolized systems, wich updates we all follow frightened to 'reduce' risk. Resources like memory are scaled up without limits, the number of programmers rises and we are told to work in teams achieving very well paid very mediocre short living results. So the art of coding is on decline and while the 'management' of churning out buttons on 'app' screens, pasting stuff and fiddling in frameworks called consulting is on the rise. In absolute numbers maybe good programming examples where never as easy accessible as today, but is often buried below all the noise and not very rewarded. Probably the result of the economical success of the applied art of coding.

So for an coding artist fiddling with a pencil and paper to make something out of nothing can be again very rewarding... or maybe fiddling with vi and compilers etc. :-D
The notion of the government being some abstract external entity is really strange to me.

Some consenting adults don't have the power to negotiate fair transactions so we, as a society, can use our collective bargaining power to define what a fair transactions is.
> Glad to see AWS finally embracing Kubernetes too

Yeah, they are embracing more income. Not really that surprising.

No, ESB is the messaging plane, workflow orchestration is a higher level service, on top of the messaging plane.
There’s a lot of startups purporting to bring hard science to market but most of them are incompetent or snake oil and it’s very difficult for software engineers (or investors) to identify the diamonds in the rough with 0 domain expertise. Meanwhile many of these startups suffer from a lack of exceptional software engineering that is often necessary to solve novel cross-disciplinary problems from first principles.

It would be a boon for society if it were common for great programmers interested in hard problems to take a year off from their lucrative dead-end big tech co careers and study a subject outside of CS that they’re interested in, so at least they’d be able to evaluate the feasibility and importance of technical challenges in that field and apply their skills at a point of high leverage in that domain.
There was an outage August 19th, 2019 - almost 1 year ago to the day. As I posted at the time:
"Google often has a outage or two around this time of the year when all the US schools come back and millions of students log in at the same time."

Most standard Linux repos are highly curated, with even distro specific patches and stuff.

The difference is that there is no rent seeking and you can choose your curator.
As macOS market share increases, Apple definitely doesn't want to become another attractive platform for malware developers like windows XP.

I guess if they make it more intuitive for users to run unsigned apps when they want to, everyone would be still happy with those restrictions. It's just about adding clear message and additional buttons. So I would be happy with having the option and my grandmother is also happy with some level of protection.
It's hard for me to understand how so many in their right mind can spend thousands of dollars to buy Apple stuff that are made to screw them and to transform them into toddlers!
That's 30 per 100,000, which is less than several U.S. cities: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cities_by_murder_rate Though, there are alot of Mexican cities on that list. And the only countries of comparable size that have a higher murder rate are Venezuela (30m) and South Africa (60m): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intention... (Interestingly, arguably it's Central America and the Caribbean that stand out for their high murder rates, not any specific country in the region, which suggests a more complex phenomenon than straight US-funded cartel violence.)
Yea, I used to do this with a little script. The strategy I used, which worked well when I was compressing and archiving workspaces (which might often contain checkouts of different branches of the same project) was essentially this:

find * -print | rev | sort | rev |
tar --create --no-recursion --files-from - |
gzip

This clusters file types together and within file types and within that files with the same base name close together.

This worked surprisingly well for my use cases, though you can imagine that packing and unpacking times were impacted by the additional head seeks caused by the rather arbitrary order in which this accesses files.
'probably better compression' is an understatement.

As ever the answer is no one way is so superior in every circumstance that the other should be dismissed outright.

Defining your overall base and then only specifying the 'diff' between the base and the component is probably a reasonable goal.

Having said that, I don't like and don't do inline CSS.
At least 3 years. I knew a guy in Manchester who was on his seventh year, the funding ran out so he'd spent the previous three years living in a cupboard in the department.
You are assuming a lot here. Kubernetes is not nearly as popular and used as much to justify that we only need that interface. CloudFormation is replaced with Terraform, Ansible and Pulumi much more than it is replaced with Kubernetes.
This is great insight!

I've watched a coleague/friend do this and it is both amazing and disturbing -- it might seem almost robot-like to some(like, "why aren't you getting mad, doesn't the bullshit this other person said make your blood boil?").

I try to do the same, but it is incredibly hard, given the other issues in the relationship. Trying to fix smaller issues in order to create a precedent and good will and a feeling of competency feels like navigating a minefield.

It cannot be that raising the price floor of a good does not cause consumers to buy less of it, or substitute where possible.

Employers rent the labour of employees, and if their price floor is raised, it cannot have no effect on how much their labour is demanded - the equation has been tipped toward higher input costs.

It may not have enough negative effect to cause any adjustments, but it must at the margins.
Not really, you still have a lack of biodiversity.

Japan had a government policy of only reforesting with two types of trees for economic purposes, in some cases replacing natural forest, and as a result there's a lack of biodiversity and Japan now has allergy seasons that are estimated to cost $2B a year: https://ensia.com/features/japan-reforestation-deforestation...

To add insult to injury, the economic rationale for planting lots of fast-growing wood never really panned out, because it turned out with even Japanese oversupply of timber that it was cheaper to import it from SEA.

[1] Alexandre Dumas was borne in the Aisne. Maybe the american refers to his father, the general Dumas, who was born in what is now Haiti? (the Dumas count among themselves both writers and fencers, but I don't believe any have been as good at both simultaneously as Aramis.)
I've been on the inline CSS hype, it makes rapid prototyping so much faster. Also if you use Dev Tools / Inspect Element to dynamically edit your web frontend its so much easier to test things and then just copy it over.

As long as money is a non-factor, sure. If the idea is "just pay the cloudy tax" then I'd rather be on something like Heroku that actually makes my life easier, not harder.
c) use practices that were commonplace before artificial fertilizer was invented; fallowing, manure, compost, etc.

Of course, manure and compost have their own set of CO2 (and methane) emission problems. At least it's carbon neutral I guess.

Reminds me of some of stringification abused in the Linux kernel. What looks like a function call passing the literal text param1## as an argument, where it would then trigger a different stringification in a subsequent preprocessor pass that prepended ##foo to the passed argument.

>>First of all a rational actor will not intentionally pay a worker the value of their production; you get no profit.

The value of their production is NOT the value of the production of the enterprise in which their production is employed.

Take a worker, whose work is worth $5 an hour according to market forces. Employing him to operate a $40,000 bakery, which generates $40 an hour in operating profits sans labor costs, does not mean the worker's labor is suddenly worth $40 an hour.

You can 100% pay workers what their labor is worth, and make a profit, and believing otherwise is a layman's understanding of the factors of production and the definition of value, and exactly the fallacy that underpinned Marx's quackery.

I see so many of these comments in Hackernews, which misunderstand basic economics, endeavor to expose some Big Lie allegedly being promoted by Economics/capitalists, and seek to defend some allegedly exploited underdog who needs laws limiting private-property/contract rights to be protected from said exploitation.

Also, there is no indication of information asymmetry playing any role in contract negotiations. Signals like market prices are an emergent phenomenon that are easily accessible to all prices.

They are easily accessible because well-resourced parties are incentivized to carry out actions that make them accessible, like a firm advertising a job opening and the pay offered as widely as possible, to maximize the number of potential applicants that see it.

Those configs feel like they're longer than a Russian literature novel.

Setting them up is a pain: why do I need a different set of permissions to set up a service connection for every single pipeline?

Why does my manager who has what we can only assume is a _marginally different_ set of permissions just see an approve button for the service connection but I get taken to page asking me to setup a service connection? (Which ultimately fails anyway)

Why does it want to create a Kubernetes secret on every deploy?

It does funny things with the output from Kustomise, and we discovered we had to add parameters in to make it stop adding characters to the end of the generated configs.

Did you once, look at a pipeline? Be prepared to get more emails from devops than an overly-eager marketing department.

If you have a Terraform in your Pipeline, Azure will lie to you about the status of you Apply's: it'll tell the pipeline that the resource was created, when it fact it was not successfully created, this will mess up your TF state.

If you deploy to a K8s cluster, and your application crashes during startup for some reason, the pipeline treats this as a failure, IMO that's beyond it's set of responsibilities: it should take care of making sure the deployment configs get to Kubernetes, application failing to start is the concern and responsibility of the developer, not the CI pipeline.
In modern web applications, it's
pretty self evident that components
are the right solution

I often see this argument of "self evidence" made by developers who claim that some modern "best practice" approach is the right one.

In my experience it is an indication that the proclaimed "better" approach is actually inferior. And the author had to resort to the argument of "obvious self evidence" because there are no better arguments around.

I think it is driven by what I call "tool religion". Developers who invested significant amount of time into learning a tool become religiously attached to it. Because they now want to be an "expert" of the "best way". Not just "Some guy with a preference".
