>> families with more than two parents

> I never heard of this unless you consider divorced people.

Look for articles concerning co-parenting, that's where its most often discussed. Wikipedia: "Co-parenting is an enterprise undertaken by two or more adults who together take on the socialization, care, and upbringing of children for whom they share equal responsibility[1] Co-parents may include a variety of configurations, including a mother and a father, two mothers, two fathers, a parent with an adult sibling or grandparent, or a parent and another adult relative. The co-parent relationship differs from an intimate relationship between adults in that it focuses solely on the child."

The other typical configuration would be in polyamorous relationships, when more than two of the partners decide to take responsibility of the child. Granted "typical" is a bit of a difficult word when we're talking about niche concepts. Most of my friends and coworkers have never heard about co-parenting or any other of the more diverse and sometimes complex family-alike structures, unless they concern failed relationships (see divorces). Which is kind of a bummer, that only failure in previous relationships motivates them to experiment with other concepts.

> Its costly and risky to run 100 VMs...

A tiny fraction of companies need to run 100+ VMs. It takes a lot of traffic to require that scale, unless you're just throwing money at infra to avoid optimizing your code (which can be cost effective).

A large chunk of companies should just be on something like SquareSpace or Shopify, another large chunk should be using off-the-shelf services like Azure's App Containers or Amazon's Elastic Beanstalk/Lightsail/whatever else they have now, and some internal services can easily run on a single VM with no orchestration at all.

All that stuff is really expensive at scale, but unless you're a large company, your engineering time is going to cost way more than just using whatever managed services your cloud offers.

> ...maintaining them and keeping them up to date, monitoring them and knowing when they are no longer needed.

This is not the only alternative to using Kubernetes. You can automate all of this without Kubernetes, or you can use a cloud provider's managed Kubernetes service. A lot of companies get by just fine with Heroku.

If you assume people are using practices from 2005 (or that cloud providers don't already provide a layer of abstraction on top of Kubernetes), of course Kubernetes looks better.

Yes, my experience with CBT very much leads me to believe that shame is a highly destructive emotion, more likely to cause someone to withdraw and disengage from life than to promote lasting positive change in behavior.

Kinda. They are very useful, as they catch all those stuff that should have been designed out of the language/framework to start with. They are not something to get cracked, but they also won't discover any deep issue.
Sadly, no. The physics follow though - water has a much higher specific heat than air, so you have to move much less water than air for equivalent cooling. The production of heat by the processors is the same (and you save on air handling electricity/cooling processes, as the water is already cool in the ocean). As for the oceans absorbing the heat, that's how it works anyways - a unit of heat released in the atmosphere has to be sunk somewhere and the ocean is the "Earth's biggest heat bucket".

I think the data-oriented version is very appropriate for a game, where performance is king and there's not that much maintenance afterwards once its done. Perhaps I'm wrong but games seem to be very much a finish and toss it over the wall sort of project. Much less iteration than other contexts.

All right. I'm wrong. Didn't know this. Thanks for linking. Still can't exactly fault me on that. It's not easy to find the contextual blog post if this post doesn't easily say it's part of a series.

Still though, my expose is still relevant, those are some hard lines that can easily be gotten rid of if your functions were immutable and not part of a class.

Any internal private function is safe to use anywhere in the system as long as it's not attached to a class and it doesn't modify shared state. If your systems were modelled this way there would be no need to really think about modularization as your subroutines are already modular.

For example:

class A:
def constructor:
//does a bunch of random shit

def someMethodThatMutatesSomething() -> output

class B:

def someOtherFunctionThatNeedsClassA:
//cannot call someMethodThatMutatesSomethingwithout doing "a bunch of random shit" or even possibly modifying or breaking something else. Modularity is harder to achieve with this pattern.

versus:

def somePureFunctionWithNoSideEffects(input) -> output

somePureFunctionWithNoSideEffectsabove does not need any hard lines of protection. There is zero need to use the antics of "deconstructing a monolith" if you structured things this way. Functions like this can be exposed publicly for use by anyone with literally zero issues.

Shared muteable state and side effects is really the key thing that breaks modularity. Everyone misses it and comes up with strange ways to improve modularity by using "walls" everywhere. It's like cutting my car in half from left to right with a wall and calling it "modularization." When you find out that the engine in front actually needs the gas tank in back then you'll realize that the wall only produces more problems.
At least you are able to talk to a real person. I've always had good experience calling GoDaddy customer service. Many other online companies make it a very big hassle if you have an issue that's outside the scope of their FAQs.
str::find performs a substring search, which is incorrect if the same token appears more than once.

What I want is the literal offset of a string slice in another, aka pointer arithmetic in C:

fn derp() -> usize {
let src = "xxxxxxx";
let tok = &src[3..4];
let offset = tok.as_ptr() - src.as_ptr();
offset // should be 3
}

this should be doable safely; I think it's just an annoying hole in the API.
> at some point they will mention how portion sizes are gigantic.

Do you generally have doggy-bags (leftovers carry-out) outside the US? The portions sizes are large for a few reasons: 1) pricing needs to stay high as rents are still high or the restaurant will fold (most do anyway). 2) people often take leftovers home

So you pay higher prices for more food, and a 2nd (or sometimes 3rd) meal at home.

I think the bigger issue is that due to sprawl and walk/bike-unfriendliness, people take their cars everywhere. As a part of COVID restrictions my family has started using bikes to things we would normally get in a car for - e.g. get takeout or library - but most people don't.

Well it kinds looks like your car manufacturer stating in the manual that your car cannot tow.

You know it just a matter of installing one, but they basically don't want to spend time supporting something they have no interest in.
My general experience dealing with contractors in a large city with a decent permitting system demonstrates that you have to basically force the contractor to comply - they won’t even do a permit unless you mention it first and some will even actively go out of their way to try to convince you not to get one. Not every contractor I’ve worked with is like this but more often than not it is the case.

They defrauded you & violated your copyright. If the SoL hasn't passed you might want to consider filing a police report. It's possible that you could get the current registrar to give it back.

It seems like they are still violating your copyright, so you might be able to go that avenue if the SoL keeps refreshing as they keep violating it (not sure though).

GoDaddy has terminated accounts on copyright grounds before, and you could also file a civil suit if you think you could withstand the cost / pain of it now.

(That said, sometimes it's better to just walk away)

> Pointers are integers on (most) real hardware.

I'm curious. Can you elaborate on "most"? The closest thing I know of to an exception is ARM's memory tagging extension stuff, [1] and I'm not sure if that qualifies because it looks like the actual checking of the tag is done by compiler-emitted assembly rather than automatically by the hardware. [2] I suppose it at least violates the idea that casting the pointer to an integer type doesn't change the value and still allows you to sort addresses via a simple <.

I'm not sure if this is authoritative:

"The company’s original name was called “Jomax Technologies,” named after an old dirt road Parsons used to drive by on the way to work. Two years after founding the company, Parsons wanted to change the name to something more fun and memorable.

An employee suggested the name Big Daddy, but the domain name was already taken. The reason? The movie “Big Daddy,” starring Adam Sandler. Parsons suggested GoDaddy to the team. Luckily, the .com was available and the name has stuck for just about two decades."

Literally the first sentence of the article is about dangerous recommendations. And the second is about harmful content.

This is not just an open-ended inquiry of what youtube is recommending. It's about finding the bad and getting rid of it.

And usually the bridging was not that the linear graph became an exponential one. The wars and revolutions caused a down fall in the exponential graph to bring it back to the same point the linear graphs were at. Equality by destruction.
Yup. I dropped my usual gym routine and went entirely to cardio because I recognized if I didn't I was going to have problems - finished my first (informal - just me and Strava) half marathon a couple of weeks back.
Nitpick^2: You are probably saving a few cycles due to loop overhead around pointer offsets and bounds checking, + not having to load the items into cache twice, if the sequence is too long to fit into cache.
"OOP" is really three different things that people conflate together.

1. Making data structures as tiny databases with an interface that simplifies storing and retrieving data correctly (no transformations in the class itself to other data types hopefully to minimize dependencies!)

2. The school taught java/old C++ debacle of inheritance. This is where things fall apart. Inheritance means not only dependencies but opaque dependencies. It almost always means pointer chasing and lots of allocations. It used to be necessary because it was the only way to get generic containers. The speed hit to use a chain of pointers was also much smaller. In modern times this destroys performance and is not needed due to templates.

3. Message passing - 'at a certain scale, everything becomes a network problem'. I think the flexibility in having this integrated into the core of a language like smalltalk is not a good trade off, but I do think message passing at a courser architectural level offers large benefits without limiting the speed of more granular and fundamental data structures and functions.

I think OOP will always be debated in a circle because people conflate these three aspects. The first I think is extremely useful and vital. The second I think is obsolete. The third I think should be treated as a higher level architecture approach with large chunks of data passed around to large non-trivial modules/libraries/nodes/plugins etc. The higher level can be more dynamic and flexible because the overhead for a flexible structure is much smaller if it is done with large chunks of data and not integrated into a language and used for vectors / hash maps / one line math functions, etc.
The US population is unhealthy with bad health care on average. 42% are obese. It's not Lockdown leading to greater mortality.
Individuals have the right to choose obesity and pay their own costs related to it. This isn't "mob rule" because nobody is really forcing anyone else to be obese.

There's no problem to solve other than being more cognizant of the costs obesity will impose on one as an individual.

There is a large difference in satiety between, say, 1000 calories of steak versus potato chips. This has a large effect on what you eat later, despite what you might want.
> I don't think that the movements for obesity normalization has had as much of an effect as just seeing larger people around.

A distinction that doesn't really matter right?

In one example, I think it's good that clothing websites will show people in their clothes that look like their larger customers. I think it's good that this is less jarring to see due to prevalence alone. There was little utility for the polar opposite at size 0 and size 2 to model for everything, aside from overvaluing the addictiveness of frustration.

It still remains accurate to point out the health issues associated with obesity and the folly of remaining in that state.
I was going to write something similar. The example in this article is a comparison between row-oriented and column-oriented approaches, not OOP and DOD. Which you prefer depends on the operations you expect to perform during program execution.

If you generally only add new entities, and generally perform operations on all entities (or large subsets) and specifically only need some columns, then the column-oriented approach is more likely what you want.

If you find you delete entities frequently enough, or operate on individual entities more than groups, then row-oriented may be better. Performance will improve (deletes are expensive in arrays/vectors) and code may be cleaner.

There are lots of other factors, but these are the bigger ones (IME).

One thing I want to point out here is that (books aside), paint and bicycles are physical, rival goods- there are only so many bicycles, and creating a new bicycle means significant resources and manpower need to be used.

F360 is not that- if Autodesk somehow magically knew whether an individual was willing to pay $500/year for a subscription, there'd be little reason for Autodesk not to give everybody who can't afford it F360 for free.

Take somebody like me, for example. I am not going to buy a F360 subscription. But I want to learn CAD. (I'm familiar with OpenSCAD...but also familiar with its limits.) Previously, I was torn between FreeCAD and Fusion; now FreeCAD is clearly the best option for me.

So now I'm going to have FreeCAD experience, not Fusion experience. And any designs I release will be FreeCAD files, not Fusion files. And if somebody else happens to ask me for CAD help, I can't help them if it's Fusion, but I might be able to if it's FreeCAD. And any bugs I run into in FreeCAD, I might help fix.

This seems clearly worse for Autodesk than a world where I picked Fusion because of their hobbyist-friendly licensing. Not much worse! But worse.

The choice for me is not between paying Autodesk and not paying Autodesk. I'm not paying $500 annually no matter what! The question is whether Autodesk lets me use Fusion for my hobby/personal products, at no cost to them, or whether they push me towards a competing ecosystem. The latter seems like it makes everyone worse off, at least in my particular case- that's what makes this so disappointing.
>We surely don't want people to be shamed or ashamed for being overweight. Nothing good comes from shame.

When I go to a meat-heavy diet, I do not have bowel movements for 10-14 days. And I don't feel constipated. Your mileage may vary. I don't recommend it though.
In fact India does have a lot of obesity. The rates are not yet as high as they are in the US because they are even more oppressed by poverty, meaning that 1. even inexpensive food is in limited supply, and 2. many Indians still rely on manual labor which keeps obesity rates down.

It is noteworthy that India has a massive problem with diabetes and also has the lowest life expectancy in the world.
Next time you're in the US, go to a Costco - it's where Americans go when normal portion sizes are too small. Sizes are 2-4x regular grocery store sizes. It's the America of America.

Not really. You're probably gaining it back because you (presumably) think a diet is a one time thing. It's not, it must be maintained indefinitely, since it's just calories in vs calories out.
It shows that "okay" measures against COVID are strong enough to push the R_eff value for those viruses well below 1, unless something extraordinary happens. I.e. no extra strain for medical services.

As said, this hinges on social distancing and hygiene measures being kept enforced. If you open a country fully again and get two simultaneous peaks then you are in for a bad time.
You should keep track of it in the way you want to present it, which in this case is probably the line and column numbers. I don't think it's much different in C++ and Rust.
It's unlikely FE cards will become more available. Unlike previous generations, the FE is both likely superior to the AIB models and being sold for less. This created insatiable demand which many suspect Nvidia would rather not fulfill. Instead, the rumor is the FE cards were underpriced for marketing reasons while pushing buyers to the higher margin AIB cards.

I still meditate, it helps clear my mind. What I didn't do is buy into the whole program with its seminars and retreats etc.

When I was very much younger I was really curious about the claims of "mind over matter" types who claimed that the laws of physics could be changed to suit one's desires. A friend of mine had done the TM thing and she was enthusiastic and helped fund the intro / level 1 class for me (it was like $100 at the time and I considered that a LOT of money).

For me, the primary benefit of meditation is to quiet all of the 'noise' in my head[1]. Some of my best engineering designs have emerged after spending a couple of days alternately meditating and reading.

This is far from universal. Many people simply lack any motivation to change when not confronted with shame.

Many people call that shaming. This distinction isn't as clear as you suggest.

Seems like onlyfans is primarily in the adult content business, however, they appear to use stripe to process payments. Most card processors have clauses against supporting this type of activity, but it appears that Stripe is probably making a ton of money, given the growth of Onlyfans.
