you seem to be circling around the idea that winner-take-all dynamics have taken over music (and other industries) because of the internet. rather than democratizing exposure and innovation and distributing esteem and reward, the internet has collapsed major strains of interest into one conglomerated popularity contest where even fewer can make it big. the curation of the music industry was useful when access was limited and marketing had cost and power, but not so much now, so it's demise is more coincident than prerequisite.

pop music was better before (even 80s music! =)

15 years ago it was "install gentoo to learn how computers work" but all it really teaches you is how the gentoo/arch install procedure works, or, more likely, how to type in commands from a HOWTO one after another.

This would be fine if they just plain and simple catered to a group. What Reddit does though is they are actively hostile to one group.

I'm somewhat in the boat the parent is. I see the incredible value in something like Reddit - or maybe the Reddit of old. Where niche communities can self police and create a space for information and content that isn't found anywhere else.

Unfortunately everything has to be monetized. The people who own Reddit want to make money and therefore they try to toe the line of using just enough dark patterns to force the tiktok group to use the Reddit app and not to terminally piss off the nice groups.
I still use Winamp, with the plugin that shows the lyrics of the current song.
I doubt that because technology is so powerful and adaptable. Dikes can protect lowlands. Air conditioning can make hot summers tolerable. Food can be grown in more northern climes.

> I know many people who went to culinary school in America because they were inspired by the food they grew up with and wanted to learn more so they could start a restaurant or study it or something, and were disappointed when it was mostly French cooking and their culture was barely touched on. In that case, the school did not fit their expectations and desires. I'm sure that culinary schools meet most student's expectations or they wouldn't continue to exist, but I think it's worth mentioning that all the top schools seem to follow the same basic pattern, at least from what I've been told. It's not like you can pick the French school or the West African school or the Japanese school when you're an American looking to enter a school in your country. Anyway I think I should stop talking about this because I really don't know much about culinary schools, I just meant it as a loose analogy.

It's not much different than people who aimlessly go to college without a specific goal in mind. It's a hilariously reckless thing to do and really naive.

All of these schools are really upfront about what their curriculum is before you apply.

Are we really advocating for catering to people who do not do their due diligence?
That was my initial thought as well, but then I realised that some resources wouldn't fit into this simple categorizaiton.

Take the Google Chrome Developers channel as an example. Most of the content creators there are fantastic, experienced, and smart developers. But then, they may discuss some fundamental issues such as browser apis or web components that are equally valuable both for novices and for experienced developers. I remember one video by the http203 crew about for-loops. I mean, for-loops! who doesn't know those! And yet, that video, as it progressed, got into deeper and deeper crannies of for-loops that I had never considered. I may not remember much from the video, but I do remember that I was very pleasantly surprised when watching it.

I don't know whether there are many other resources like that in that list.
Worth thinking about this in the context of fat-head vs. long-tailed distributions, or less formally "whales". A very small number of users (the "head" or "whales") can account for most of the area under the curve, which in this case is the cost of delivering free build minutes.

For a toy example, imagine one user uses 2k minutes, 10 use 100 minutes, and 1000 use 1 minute. In this case you have "Over 99% use 100 minutes or less", but 50% of your cost is going to the one 2k minute user.

I have no idea if this is their exact curve, just showing how a fat-head distribution could explain what they are saying. I'd expect the "demand" (i.e. minutes used if they were not constrained / all paid for) to be a power law distribution.

Also worth noting that there's a sort of bimodal selection effect going on here -- it's unlikely that you use exactly 2k minutes/month, since you'd be hitting your limit and that would be disruptive. So the closer you get to using 2k minutes, the more likely you are to pay for more than the free tier. So I'd expect this pricing change to also force some users that were previously on 400 minutes +- 100 to have to upgrade too; this will impact some of the 98.5% of free users that are using <= 400 _on average_ per month.

Doesn't the pitch of a helicopter blade change as it goes around the rotation? With a traditional rotor, the torque is always angular, but with these, the torque will be angular plus a cyclical vertical component, since the rocket pitch is the blade pitch. I'm wondering what the the structural and vibrational implications are of a rocket launching the blade tip up and down at 500 RPM.

BSNL was making loss for years

Then Modi should've put in more money in BSNL

But BJP did not do that did they?

It seems like you're pretending to be neutral while spreading false information by twisting facts.

74,000 package announced?

Well the BJP govt has announced a LOT of things over the last six years.

BJP CM promised 25k crore to Kalyan Dombivli Municipality. KDM got 0 Rs from BJP

I can't even remember a single month in Modi's first term when he wasnt announcing oackage

Thousands of crore to JK

To Bihar

To Jharkhand

Anywhere BNP was desperate to win elections they threw bubbles of 10000000crore package so that their troll armies can refer to the announcement

>>You may be tempted to set “compression=off” on datasets which primarily have incompressible data on them, such as folders full of video or audio files. We generally recommend against this – for one thing, ZFS is smart enough not to keep trying to compress incompressible data, and to never store data compressed, if doing so wouldn’t save any on-disk blocks.
One of my first tasks as a systems programmer for the Schlumberger corporation in 1986 was to rewrite the VMS help command for use on SunOS. As it turns out, my rewritten version ran nearly twice as fast as the VMS version on VMS.

That design (a nested heirarchy of help topics/subtopics, with some navigation hacks to make getting around easier) was quite good.

But then came hypertext in the form of the web, and at that point, the "help" command just looks like crap.

"pair with seniors" is the go-to recommendation for learning, so I paid a senior rails dev to pair with me on an OSS contribution (we fixed a bug in Jekyll)

I recorded the whole process, end-to-end. It's about 90 minutes of video.

Neither of us had prior knowledge of the application.

There's a lot of good stuff in it, but I'm still working on how to best show the "path" someone should take through it.

I plan on adding "obstacle courses" for certain skills that are amenable to that kind of approach.

I think they are not trivial but relatively easy parts of the design. I’m sure they can design support structure to withstand whatever arbitrarily large earthquake you throw at it. The structure doesn’t need to be particularly light or compact so there shouldn’t be any design constraints getting in the way of strength. The heat transfer problem is much much harder and they’ve already solved that apparently.

If you're writing a web server or an OS, yes you need to be careful and it might be easier to be careful in other languages (allegedly). But if you're making a game or playing around in WASM, it's fine and you're not going to cost anyone billions of dollars.
That's still a good practice, if you close descriptors. Such criticism and trouble comes from environments that are unable to follow the routine because reasons, e.g. they openlog() and construct other objects before daemonizing. Given how much can happen before python's main() to be called, it is obvious that daemonizing python-anything is a bad idea to start with. It only works for few controlled steps at int main(), after that you're screwed. All these pitfalls are discussed in literature, the real problem is that barely anyone bothers to read it and think for a second on their options. One of them being to use a proper service manager instead, like systemd.
Also, gamma has a kind of self-reinforcing feedback loop. When the options are initially way OTM the market makers only need to hedge with a small amount of the underlying. But as the price runs closer to the option strikes the delta impact of a given move becomes larger and larger, so MMs have to hedge with more and more of the underlying, which can itself push the price farther in the same direction.
Antitrust anyone?

The issue with voting based forums is they tend to cater to low quality mass appeal comments.

More often than not an informative comment, while maybe not being downvoted, won't be the top comment. Instead, you'll see really low effort "zingers" which make it to the top. Those are further piled on with a flood of comments trying to one up each other.

So, you end up often needing really strict moderation to curtail this problem.

Chrono ordering suffers the same issue, somewhat, though it doesn't have the pile on problem (not to the same extent).
