Dropbox is a unique case where majority cost is storage/bandwidth by one product/team.

If you have a large organization where cost is divided in 100s of teams and products, cloud (vendor/managed) will be beneficial in removing lot of bureaucracy.
Mmmm, not all kids, and not all 'kinds' of programming. Yes, they're being made more aware that programming exists and is necessary, but that's not the same as "being taught to program".
I don't really view that sort of thing as ethical or unethical. Of all the evils in the world... I wouldn't even call that an evil at all, not even on the list.

I genuinely agree and believe that Edge is in the best interests of Windows users, and while less so because it's non-native, also users on most platforms that they support. When they say, "the internet is better with Edge", it's actually true this time.
Bad reviews and reviews targeting specific employees are nearly impossible to remove from Google. I saw somebody post a rumor that someone was having an affair in a review of her employer and even that took MONTHs to take down.

It’s absolutely incredible that there’s no real recourse for these things either.
It's worth noting that $6-700 would make a theoretical Apple game console more expensive than the top-of-the-line models from Sony and Microsoft, which are themselves the most expensive consoles in recent memory.

The Apple TV 4K already costs $180/$200 without a controller, which could easily set you back an additional $60. Combined, that's more than half the price of a disc-less PS5, and very close to the cost of a Nintendo Switch.
It looks like (to me) there is a DDD training industry, along the lines of, or as a part of the “agile transformation“ training industry.

Which in and of itself isn’t bad I suppose, but part of me feels that these are cynical attempts to unscrupulously monetize ideas who’s time has come by bombarding credulous middle management with buzzwords.

Thanks for the recommendation on the FastAI for Coders course/book. I immediately bought it based on the Amazon page and have spent the last hour reading it. I FINALLY feel like a book about AI/ML/Deep Learning gets where I'm coming from, and that's enough to get started and keep me going (at least for now).
Honestly wasn't my intention here. I just like reading about micro-products/services, and these threads often have a way of shedding light on actual products/services that exist, but are not popular yet for whatever reason.
I used this service before and found it quite good.

Arms control treaties are negotiated in the current context, in country's best interests.

Even a desire to build more ICBMs is harmful, as it makes a country less likely to voluntarily agree to ICBM limits in the future. But absolutely agree that ICBM and missile defense are intertwined, so only make sense to negotiate strategic arms control covering both.

I would say that it does follow that "sufficient" interceptors, relative to a counterparty's ICBMs, leads to a "successful" first strike.

Where "success" in this calculus means acceptable losses.

The lynchpin of MAD is that no one is insane enough to argue that the incineration of a major city is acceptable for a first strike.

Without ballistic missile defense, that destruction is effectively guaranteed, as long as the counterparty has available ICBMs and is able to launch them.

With ballistic missile defense, there's a chance that destruction could be averted. And that chance drastically balloons the risk of a first strike being launched.

To put it another way: you're the president, and you're at a meeting of the Joint Chiefs. Open conflict with Russia has broken out in Eastern Europe. Massive amounts of Russian reinforcements are transporting towards NATO lines.

No BMD: if we escalate to nuclear, and the Russians retaliate (as stated by their nuclear posture), American cities have a 100% chance of being vaporized.

BMD: ... American cities have a 75% chance of being vaporized.

That's a terrifyingly different decision, because it opens the possibility that someone decides to take a risk. Because there's a chance things will work out favorably.
There are a ridiculous amount of games on the iOS platform. Many of which are offering the full game. Examples that come to mind off the top of my head are Final Fantasy, and the GTA games.

They don't hide the fact that they're doing it to you; they just market it to you as "75 other reviews that are not currently recommended," etc.

Connect the dots.
This can be generalised to “having a deep understanding about your tech stack is good and profitable”. Spotify did the opposite and went from a complex peer to peer design to a “throw everything in an s3 bucket” design because the underlying business assumptions changed (among other things, p2p didn’t work on mobile). So yeah. I think the lesson here is stop making excuses and go compile a Linux kernel or something.

Is there a straightforward way to monetize the review business without resorting to what's essentially extortion (BBB, Yelp) or having a feature subsidized by other methods (Google reviews)?
I would feel lost w/o my GTD-like system (from what I understand anyway). My daily routine (like a "self-program") with tasks, priorities, calendars, notes for review, habits in process of being formed, everything all smoothly integrated, inside this text/desktop (keyboard-oriented) app I wrote (free, AGPL, uses postgresql but I might move it to Rust and SQLite someday to simplify installation): http://onemodel.org (aka OM).

Edit: In some ways, I tie everything to:

* pvsgeer: purpose, vision, strategy, goals, empowerment, execution, measure/review/report/repeat &c.

* roles/goals (like Covey said in 7 habits, like, person/child, spouse, parent, extended family member, neighbor, church/group member, citizen, professional/employee, others)

And things sort of flow from there, but baked into daily and periodic routines to help me stay on track and enjoy balanced life. Or at least that is the intent, and it helps greatly, as I continue learning.

* edit2: I have a prioritization system inside OM that I use to not get consumed with busy-ness. It also helps tremendously, to be able to sort things etc.

Why a net positive? I think a single glass should have no discernible effect over time.

The two most misunderstood events in web development (pagehide/pageshow)
>You are not Dropbox

That may actually work the opposite way. The big guys can negotiate pricing with the cloud providers to the point where they may be running at close to cost. It's the small and mid tiers that get hosed with cloud pricing.

>You personally need to run the numbers with both scenarios. Depending on your use case, it may be cheaper to be in AWS

I'm not sure about that. Certainly cloud infrastructure provides a level of flexibility which may be advantageous if you're going through high rate of growth. Outside of that, I'm not sure you'd see any cost savings.
So they saved next to nothing? Their yearly operating expenses are in the order of $1.3B, which doesn't even include cost of revenue. $75M savings versus $2600M operating expenses over those 2 years comes out to about 2.8% savings.
> I encourage anyone viewing this as a positive development of society to meet someone in person with down syndrome in person and ask themselves if that person would be better off killed.

I have a daughter with Down's (I've posted a couple times in this thread already), but I still view this as a positive development.

I love my daughter dearly, and would die for her if need be - and I don't see any contradiction with this; I don't want my daughter to have Down's and the additional possibility of health issues that goes with it, or of course the inevitable societal issues. Her life is going to be a lot harder than that of a typical person, and of course it has been and will continue to be tough on her parents.

But this isn't about parents killing their existing children, it's about allowing future parents to make a choice whether to bring someone with possibly very severe disabilities into the world.
Pretty much paying the mob to make sure nothing bad happens to you.
What about their response makes you think it was a non answer? I specifically opened this thread to share the exact same experience, as therapy has helped my professional life much more than any book or tool I ever bought.
this is a surprising answer. in my world (react/frontend) most conferences pay for travel or at least help defer a significant amount of the cost up to a limit. your employer should also have a budget for conf travel.

but agreed on the reward of speaking at confs. just that people shouldnt find it a norm to pay to speak.
We're also bought in on the apprenticeship model. This program represents an attempt to make the learning journey more apprenticeship-focused.

In many developed countries with universal health care, alcohol is significantly taxed in part to contribute to health care costs. Canada is one example and, as a result, alcohol is generally much more expensive than in USA. This despite the large volumes and purchasing power of the provincial liquour boards (as private sales are limited, to varying degrees according to province).
Not sure how you reached that conclusion. At an org where every sub-org has their own junk in AWS a new and uniquely hideous type of bureaucracy springs into existence in order to manage/dictate which VPC is allowed to talk to which other VPC and how.

It’s also a lot of cold storage, low iops, moderate throughput. Not high performance compute with random high iops.

Of course it’s cheaper. Compare the cost of an enterprise NAS vs external hdd from bestbuy. It’s a similar comparison here

Signatures are an awful security measure in this day and age. It's compared by underpaid and overworked poll workers, definitely not by handwriting experts. There's also the problem that they're often having to compare a digital pen-and-stylis signature to a "wet" signature on the ballot.

Additionally, most people below the age of 30, and anyone without reason to spend time signing legal documents, won't have a consistent signature that matches the one on file that they provided when they were 16. It's also no coincidence to the discussion that those signatures also have a comparatively extremely high rejection rate among black people.

All of these are demographics that tend to vote a particular way, by the way, which is why you hear the other side complaining.

Once again, it's purely about expanding democracy.
Value of cloud is in many unique, quite well integrated addons like Cognito or Firebase. Once company have enough talent to build their own solutions, cloud turns into just set of VMs and storage, which is cheaper to build yourself.
> "The Public Health Services Act is almost entirely an exercise of Congressional power under the Commerce Clause."

some quick research reveals that the federal quarantine powers of the PHSA are largely restricted to state and national borders. so that's indeed based (partly) in the commerce clause, protecting trade across borders from destabilizing forces. but the 5th & 14th amendments (due process and equal protection) also contribute, as does the necessary and proper clause (allowing the fed to use unenumerated powers to carry out its charter, and only its charter, when necessary and proper).

but a true national quarantine, where people are confined to homes or communities, and other proposed national measures (like a mask mandate) would require broader powers that go beyond the commerce clause, and that was the (unstated) common understanding from which i was arguing from before.

i still find this use of the commerce clause troubling, as it's just another stepping stone in the consolidation of power away from states to a future autocrat. the commerce clause is meant to curtail human-induced distortions on interborder trade, not pandemics.

> Both Apple and Google are fully within their rights to charge whatever they want

They are within their right to charge what they want. But it is anti-competitive for them to use significant market power to leverage themselves in other markets.

The lawsuit is not about the 30% cut. Instead, the anti-competitive behavior is that Apple prevent competing Apple stores using its significant market power.

Thats how anti-trust law works.

1. If a book comes to mind, just buy it. No wishlists, no libraries. Feel free to get _both_ kindle and paperback, even the audible.

"Cloud" handles the problem of people who buy based on who takes them out to lunch, buy based on wanting to have bragging rights, buy based on the idea that "nobody ever got fired for buying Dell / HP / whatever".

Sure, you can buy and colocate a dual processor Xeon Platinum bought from Dell, but when you can get significantly more than twice the performance per dollar buying an Epyc system, it's stupid to do it.

Stop comparing "cloud" to bad business decisions, and start comparing it to business decisions which would be made by people who want to get things done without ego.
It is probably becausd think companies and especially corporations have proven themselves too effective essentially for that in the pragmatic sense. Regardless of the many objections and insults to them in the generic, and claims made about the utopian alternatives and costs as better corporations and their byproducts are implicitly accepted as the most practical option even by their foes. As a category they are /never/ treated as an underdog in a comparison to any other entity and avoiding involvement in either goods or working for them is essentially treated as a luxury.

Of course the comparison doesn't quite work because unions are not standalone entities - they are linked to government or companies. If they were independent the labor organizations would be guilds.

Sucks to hear that I've been exclusively using a compositor that wasn't ready for the last 8 months. Sway is the best desktop computing experience I've ever had, "ready" or not.
That's really cool and inspiring. I began the year with a similar idea of creating small projects weekly, although my goals were less ambitious. In the beginning of it I already felt in the "insane schedule" hole and realized that it wouldn't work, so I changed plans to at least creating a blog post each week. With that, I could create a better habit and manage to (almost) handle it.

This approach didn't block me from creating small programs/game clones in this period, which I'm keeping in my blog[0] as well, but seeing projects like yours motivates to push harder for bigger projects.

I wish you luck on keeping your pace as well!

> Nonetheless, it also doesn't need to be all or nothing. You can easily combine a MultiCloud approach.

There may be reasons to go multicloud but ease isn’t one of them. You double your infra support overhead (or more likely, half its quality) and have a “least common denominator” experience.

The natural tendencies of large organizations is a diffusion of investment but the cheapest costs frequently come from a concentration of investment.
Thanks for the feedback!

A couple of thoughts:

- We actually want someone evaluated as a potential hire, not an intern. We expect our Fellows to be ready for real work, and the Fellows experience is the measure of whether they are or not.

- We went with "Fellows" instead of "intern" because the program is designed very differently than an internship and we found ourselves often saying to companies "it's like an internship, except for X, Y, and Z." Was helpful to just change the title. But I hear ya on the "Fellow" sounding potentially more senior.

I'll pass along your feedback to our marketing team, re: naming.

Hey jgtrosh,
Thanks for the valuable suggestion. I know exactly what you are referring to. The ui behavior is similar to mobile app, where I implemented kinda “force touch” in order to scroll right within that section. And regular scroll does page Navigation. I admit it’s takes some time to get used to. Regarding top navigation, I’ll need to research on what’s a better ui experience for mobile users.

I did experiment with list based home screen, but I thought the information density is low for mobile screens. However for tags and authors it’s list based as you suggested.

That being said, I’m planning an update in near future to include public domain audio Books where I can reform Home screen section behavior better for new users.
> Anti-trust only applies if there’s a finding that Apple is a monopoly. The jury, so to speak, is still out.

Wrong again, you can violate anti-competition law without being a monopoly. You're correct that it hasn't been decided in a court of law.

I'm saying that I think they are engaging in anti-competitive behavior, you are saying "actually it is okay because they haven't been judged to engage in anti-competitive behavior in a court of law", which does not seem contrary to my claim, which is that I think they should be judged to engage in anti-competitive behavior.
> Most importantly: we need to start treating drug addiction, and long term pain, as the public health emergencies they are and we need to stop criminalising drug addicts.

You might be (not at all) surprised to learn that the largest opposition to this shift is the DEA itself (It's the DEA's fault, for example, that it's so difficult for addicts to get Suboxone even when prescribed). In terms of lobbying dollars, #1 is the police and prison guards union.
