His podcast is actually pretty good and seems like legit, and doesn't have as much "marketing reek" as the site I linked. I'm not affiliated with him, but I've gotten a lot of good information from his podcast. (I'm gearing up to put my own course offerings out there)
It's not though. Literally nobody cares.

One leak is a disaster, a massive leak every day is just, a non event.
What about the Parser monad? Or the Validation Applicative?

I think you're being a bit short-sighted here.

I fully appreciate that it might be extremely difficult to accommodate these HKTs, etc. in a language with the core values of Rust. That's absolutely fine, because that's probably several research-level projects in and of itself. OTOH, we shouldn't discount the value of such things.

It's absolutely fine and reasonable to choose e.g. efficiency over other things, but it's not the only value.
I am surprised to see only three comments mentioning hydrogen embrittlement here. It's the central issue with H2, and I know of nothing that will overcome that.

Also, batteries are not going to be unseated because they have a massive head start here. The vast majority of the industrial R&D effort either is (or will be shortly) behind them now. We've seen this movie before: LCDs vs. plasma displays, silicon vs. gallium arsenide, RCA's Capacitance Electronic Disc (CED) vs the optical LaserDisc.
Replace "lock" with digital key and "manager" with "automated email" and this starts to sound like 2027.

Kafka, at least, got to talk to a person. OTOH, we get to enjoy our Kafkaesque distopia without having to physically go to some office.
For educational material like the video in question why don’t the big streaming players like Netflix or Amazon Prime pick it up?

They could buy one of the online course sites. I’d pay a small subscription as a Netflix “add-on” to get what ever I wanted to learn without ads.
I did feel disappointed after spending around two years of evenings and weekends building a 3d libretro front-end with an extensive Lua API (vintagesimulator.com) and then having the people in r/lua basically tell me they were not going to download my "malware" (unless I disclosed the source code) and I should kind of go to hell when I complained about the way they responded to it.

But I did enjoy building it. And I sort of console myself with the idea that I could resurrect the project in the future if I port it to Godot Engine and/or set it up for VR.
Oh I totally misremembered, I thought it was infocom!
Sounds like you would get better results if you created a policy people are happy with instead of just doing something that will get reversed and create more future opposition against green solutions.
Or will it mean an increase in price since they won't be able to make deals to include pack-in software?

This is pretty remarkable and surprising that it's only 5-15% slower. The Go compiler isn't very aggressive about optimizing even ignoring GC overhead concerns. I'm also curious to understand better how they bootstrapped the dynamic memory and scheduling facilities since Go obviously relies on an underlying operating system for these things.

Interesting that this doesn't primarily use fuel cells[0] (which is what hydrogen-electric aviation usually proposes to use), but directly combusts the hydrogen to run a traditional jet engine. There was a Soviet Union airliner that did this, so it definitely works, although I'm skeptical that hydrogen makes sense as an aviation fuel because jet fuel is much more convenient (easier to transport, store, and handle, and cheaper).

[0]: It uses fuel cells too, but looks like most of the propulsion comes from the turbines.
That assortative mating can also quickly leads to autism. We've got 30,000 engineers stuffed into a one square mile campus and they get married and have kids. The autism rates of kids with two technical parents is really high.

> Youtube is just so beyond broken at this point.

It's not entirely fair to blame YouTube exclusively for the complicated mess that is copyright laws. In fact most of this video & thread are misdirected blame.

Per the video it sounds like he received 5 DMCA copyright strikes to which he issues counter-claims. That's not youtube's system and youtube is bound to follow the laws outlined by the DMCA. YouTube didn't issue the copyright strike, so why would YouTube know what was or wasn't at issue?

So yes the system is broken, but moving somewhere else doesn't fix it. The new system will still have this exact same set of circumstances happen because that new system will still be governed by DMCA & US copyright law (in this instance being US-based).

The only part of this that has anything to do with YouTube itself or being in YouTube's control is the channel being deleted. But that policy is clear - 3 copyright strikes and the channel is deleted. Too harsh? Maybe. Ambiguous or unclear? No. And if the channel does what it should as a business & lawyers up to respond to the DMCA notices & issue counter-claims, if those counters are successful then the channel remains at 0 strikes and isn't deleted. But there the part that's shit is DMCA. Want to fix that part? Stop blaming YouTube for it and go try to get the law reformed. YouTube isn't going to be your lawyer. Nor will Vimeo. Nor will any video hosting service.
But I remember playing. It was hard.
Ah, thanks for clarifying! I think someone already called this out above, but the benefit of the approach I describe is that you only need one sample per pixel. Four samples per pixel starts to feel pretty slow on my machine, and I suspect you'd need more than that to make the averaging approach look good.
Adobe forcing Acrobat Reader for certain PDF features [pdf]
The strange thing is that I also had a sigmoidoscopy 25 years earlier and it matched your experience of being very bad; I was about ready to confess if it would help. But the drug-free colonoscopy was pretty smooth. I think the second doctor was a much better "driver". But maybe endoscope technology also improved, smaller diameter perhaps? (One might also wonder why I went ahead with a drug-free colonoscopy after my sigmoidoscopy experience. I guess I don't learn from experience.)
You increase your defensive assets (bonds, term deposits, annuities etc.) as you become more risk adverse (closer to retirement or other change in circumstances). So when a 90% crash occurs that takes 10 years to recover you’re either still earning, or you can draw down on your defensive assets, letting your stocks recover
It's not quite "title fever", but the point was buried too far in the essay and obscured by the title. HN frequently fails to read, and clearly has here.

Interesting point, worth developing, but a less distracting label and clearer framing, with multiple strongly contrasting examples from different domains might help.

My understanding is that he spent years ramping up his piano course, and only recently started selling his "courses course".

> What's the point of having these features in the app if you need to carry a key around all the time due to the app features being unreliable and poorly implemented?

The point is that the key fits in your wallet. It's way nicer to carry, and then the phone gives you the convenience features that you'd usually get from a bulky fob, and much more.

The app is anything but unreliable; in fact the keyless entry and walk-away lock features have worked completely flawlessly for me for more than a year (very uncharacteristic of a feature that relies on Bluetooth). An app malfunction is way less likely than my phone being lost or broken or out of battery; those are the more important reasons to carry the key card.

If the car battery dies then the key card won't open the door. But the car also can't drive, and that seems like the bigger problem. Your ICE car also can't start with a dead battery, so being able to open the door is marginally useful. In both cases you need to fix the battery before you can drive the car. (Yes, there is emergency access to the battery without opening the door.)

"light trucks used in rougher applications in remote areas."

I am sure there will, indeed, be special carve-outs and I am sure the auto manufacturers will find a way to exploit those carve-outs such that every dude in the state can continue to pretend they're a rancher (as they drive their quad cab 1.5ton to and from their apartment building every day).

Remember - you can never have too much truck.
Notorious in what way?

The price charts are all publicly available. Anyone can check for themselves what the costs are.
It's because unlike AWS and Azure, they don't actually use it.
It wasn't a trick to compile mgemacs as a desk accessory, it took a bit of work. I still have the SH204 HD from back then so have the source code, just don't have a ST to read it.

I chose the MicroGNU variant as it did parenthesis matching better than the alternatives. I ran it alongside Franz Lisp that I had also made into a GEM application.
My parents grew up in the Soviet Union and received a fairly large nest egg when my grandparents passed. Having saved their entires lives it was enough to buy a home. Well the Soviet Union collapsed, hyper inflation set in and they ended up buying a couple nice coats with the money. Hearing stories like that I've always thought the future needs to be heavily discounted. The present is certain, the future is not.

About 5 to 10% of kids, according to [0] begin to stutter temporarly. My little one started to stutter when she was 3 and after a few days nearly stopped talking altogether because she rather did not speak than stutter, to see this hurt badly. Before that she was actively communicating and joking with us. We felt like we lost a deep connection to her feelings, her emotions, like we lost her. I called a speech therapists and they told me that kids can start to stutter as they develop their language skills and they only start therapy if the stuttering goes on for more than a few months. We had some hard weeks while trying to follow the tips in [1] but luckily it went away. Seeing that she decided not to talk anymore, the effect that stuttering had on her, opened my eyes on what it might mean for someone who suffers from stuttering. All the best for everyone whose affected!

With the use of efficient lighting, running the AC or electric heat is probably the biggest energy usage for a house. Having solar panels supplying power during the day can help reduce the load on the grid from everyone running their AC. It's more of a benefit to the grid and everyone else to have panels without a battery than it is to your own energy needs.
It's every manager's worst nightmare to be on the other side of Google's legendary wall of silence.
Yep, and that's what the "2.5MB" in my original post referred to. So, a Blazor app that does nothing but print "Hello world" to the screen is as heavy as a horrendously bloated SPA that presumably does something of value.

Yes the user will notice, just the same as they notice that horrendously bloated SPAs are slow.
It also doesn’t go so well in the Paris outer arrondissements or council estates in England-Scotland, etc.
Yes, you are absolutely right. Not because of discomfort which is more of an inconvenience, but because having any kind of procedure without an IV in place is DANGEROUS! If you don't have an IV, this makes it very difficult for the anesthesiologist to act in case of problem, i.e. you're in deep sh_t.

Many people died on the table in minor anorectal procedures in the past due to bad parasympathetic reactions.
A year isn't much for a non-startup business. Google has also increased prices in the past (maps, kubernetes) while AWS has afaik never increased prices on anything.
DMCA notices are not issued by YouTube. I think you're confusing this with Content-ID, which is youtube's auto-algorithm thingy. That's not what happened here, though, per the video.

Seth Schiesel, an NYT vet and old school WoW player interviews Morhaime during April of this year.
I definitely get the same feeling about his site. I've followed him for a while, and his podcast actually feels quite credible and is actually quite value filled. My understand is that he spent years ramping up his piano course to a successful level, and is now selling that knowledge as well.

Ultimately I'm trying to gleam information from other successful course creators as I work on my own technical offerings. At the end of the day, it seems a better approach than hoping Youtube doesn't shut you down and continues to throw you scraps from their advertising revenue.
A 15 year plan isn't urgent and requires very strong support in order to survive when the next leader gets elected. Doing this without a public discussion doesn't make sense in any way.

Also we have known about climate change for decades, there has been no huge revelations about it the past year, there was no reason this couldn't have been a part of his campaign.
Are you going to cite this so called correlation? I would love to see the study.

> "climbers get good at climbing" story.

This isn't true. There are plenty of climbers - and if all that mattered was being good at climbing, boards would work to save millions of dollars by hiring cheaper "climbers."

>My guess is that investors have a cognitive bias towards simple stories and "qualified" CEOs help the board serve up simple stories to their investors while also providing ample opportunity for mutual backscratching. It doesn't matter whether or not they have an actual edge, the story is the product.

Or, perhaps, experience matters, and they just don't want to give it to people who don't have experience leading large entities. Just like anything else.

I'm sure you trust a plumber of 15 years over his journeyman of 4. Is it some secret evil cabal working against the plumber? No, it's just common sense.

I mean AWS does the same thing - mine crypto using credits to speedrun getting your account terminated. The only difference with GCP is that they have a reputation for this.

I am pretty sure this is your biases distorting your perspective. Of course I may be biased as well, but take note that the entire conversation on this comment section is about Firefox's failures, which are numerable, and very little of it has anything to do with what you're talking about. For instance the guy's crazy salary has nothing to do with wokeness, as you well know -- it has to do with all the other reasons this is a dramatic failure of capitalism.

The panels can help reduce total grid usage during the day to help supply power to businesses where people are during the day. A home AC shouldn't be running much during the day if no one is home so that helps with reducing the load. Once it gets dark, the load shifts back to homes where people are charging their cars and running the AC more heavily. I imagine the heaviest load times would be in the evening when solar panels aren't providing much power, the AC is starting to run to cool the house down, and people are starting to plug in their cars. Large power storage systems should be in place to help smooth out these increases in demand.
Every outage is a "real problem", I'm using a turn of phrase to express that it's not at all a big deal. Instead of the car magically unlocking and starting from your mere presence you must deign to reach for the physical key like some type of barbarian.
That's not correct. Taxation is one of many ways that some people's money support other people; we're talking about a different one.
I’m Swedish and I’ve never heard of it, but I also don’t work in the games industry. Apparently a Swedish guy made it according to Wikipedia, so I’m assuming it’s popular among Swedish game developers or something?

I think the important thing is to have a mitigation strategy. Google was very smart in how they commoditized cloud offerings by inventing Kubernetes. You can explode your manifests into GCP, you can explode your manifests into AWS, and it mostly works the same. Obviously you can really screw yourself by not having offsite backups (backup your GCP database into AWS, or vice-versa), or by using their proprietary stuff (Cloud Spanner, AWS Aurora). But if you're careful, you're in control, and the cloud provider is just a commodity that you pick based on price and nothing else. As an application developer, that's a great place to be.

(Similarly, I use Gmail for my e-mail, but I control the MX records. So if I get kicked off for whatever reason, I can be back up and running in no time.)

YouTube creators, however, do not have this luxury. People watch YouTube videos because they happened to be on YouTube and YouTube suggested the video, not because the end user was looking for your videos specifically. Social networks and video sharing sites are appealing to creators because there is the chance that The Algorithm (I hate that term) will award them with eyeballs that they can then sell to advertisers for very little effort. That is something you can't just migrate off of, because there are no competitors. You might convince your Patreon supporters to follow you, but even that is uncertain. I have watched many streamers move off of Twitch because they got a better deal from a competitor, only to watch their viewership drop to nothing until they were able to move back to Twitch. If one of these video sharing sites shuts you down, your career is over. Google kills your GCP account, you can still be a software engineer.

So my TL;DR is that cloud computing is very different from being an independent creator. Computers are a dime a dozen, and it doesn't matter which ones you use. But video sharing platforms give you a free audience, and that is something that is very hard to build yourself.
I’m switching to T-Mobile as soon as the next phone is released because something in AT&T’s CRM is broken in such a way that they don’t remember how many times I’ve called them to fix an autopay that’s been broken since I reported my old card lost a year and a half ago. Every person I get on the phone treats me like a child who can’t fill out a support form. So they fill it out for me and no payments are ever done. This is the same card I used to manually pay in their support system, which works. If I pretend not to know when the last time was I contacted them, they can’t tell me. Escalate a ticket, no answer.

I’m afraid that whatever is broken will stop the phone number transfer from succeeding.
