Not from AWS, but the isolation model is completely different.

On Lambda you get a full environment inside an OS container. On CloudFlare you get a WASM process.

The Lambda model is more compatible which can be a real benefit.

This is a very old debate, and one that will not be resolved with an opinion volley. (Learn fundamentals / Learn specializations).

Web dev is big. It deserves to be a major. You could probably have a 4 year specialization on various parts of web development. And you'd be highly capable and inextricably linked to those specializations for years after graduation. And it all may change from your Freshman courses to your Senior courses. Op was suggesting that situation is limiting. You could substitute "robotics" for web dev, by the way, and it would still stand.

Coming from a small midwest school as you did, your coursework should (and does) skew towards current-skill-based specializations which help you get a job. This is OK and desirable for the vast majority of students.

By the way, I also went to a small midwest school, and its "Computer Science" program was cancelled in favor of more skill-based specializations (right after I graduated with a CS degree). I don't blame them, but I stuck to my theory / fundamentals because that's what I wanted.
Yet another article comparing pricing of self hosting vs self hosting in the cloud.

All the time when using EMR with S3. Really frequent, and really annoying to mitigate.
You're about 30 years too late. Manufacturing is not coming back to the US. We've been migrating towards a service economy for several decades now. The rise of automation has only accelerated this trend. What kind of manufacturing jobs would you like to see come back? The notion of property and property rights is obviously very very different under communism, but even so, their domestic economic policies have been beneficial to the average Chinese citizen. China has successfully brought tens of millions of their own citizens out of poverty - without being involved in stupid wars to 'stimulate the economy'. IP theft aside, that deserves to be commended.

> I honestly don't know why erlang vm is faster than python vm.

One reason is that on platforms that support computed goto, when a BEAM file is loaded, the list of bytecodes for each function is translated into a list of machine code addresses that implement each bytecode (a.k.a. threaded code). Bytecode dispatch then skips one layer of indirection vs. CPython. CPython looks up each bytecode's machine code address in an array every time it dispatches a bytecode. (Or, if the platform doesn't support computed goto, CPython uses a regular switch statement, which hopefully gets compiled to a jump table.)

Apache is weird. I'd imagine it's probably the most web server on the planet? Maybe second to nginx but it hasn't really mattered much for a long time. Guess it's probably b/c most ppl aren't configuring it themselves anymore and have moved on to different hosting setups.

EMRFS consistent view is a mess. Changes to S3 files are likely to break EMRFS, the metadata needs to be kept in sync (otherwise the table will keep increasing forever) with tools that are a pain to install, and when I used it to run Hive queries from a script, it didn't work.
A bachelor's degree in Web Development sounds very fishy even it's from MIT.

Kind of a chicken and egg scenario there really. A few early adopters will need to branch out and start using it to get that momentum building, which is probably a great opportunity for scientists who are looking for an alternative

Indeed - this is the first time in over 20 years I'm excited about new Mac hardware.

I was all set to replace my 2015 MBA with an M1 MacBook Air. Then I started watching all the videos of people running games on the Air (Air!) - and even Windows games - many of which I play - under Crossover (commercial version of WINE from CodeWeavers - more than worth the $60 for the integration work they have done) I'm starting to realize that I may not care about keeping a Windows gaming machine any more. My only problem is I'm addicted to way to many assets in Cities:Skylines to get by with 16GB of RAM, so now I'm seriously thinking about waiting for round 2 for something that can get to at least 32GB of RAM.

And by the time those machines are out I suspect a few of the games I care about that don't run on the M1 may have a solution of some sort. It's nuts, and not a path I thought I might go down - but the performance I'm seeing from non-native code already simply blows me away.

It's only going to get better from here. This is the _ground floor_. I have to keep reminding myself that this is the start

Firefox on the original 2GiB pinephone runs just fine (Xorg/i3wm) even on a 1440p monitor with non-JS easy to compose websites (no complicated CSS filters, blur, etc.) with smooth scrolling.

It's only slowed down by storage access speeds mostly.

Disclaimer: I'm a former HPE employee who resides near Silicon Valley.

I agree with you. In my opinion Silicon Valley is a great place for the following types of software engineers:

1. Those who work for FAANGs.

2. Those who work for non-FAANG companies that are generally well-known and have compensation packages that are competitive with FAANG, such as Uber, AirBNB, Pandora, Twitter, etc.

3. Those who work for VC-funded startups, given the strength of Silicon Valley's VC ecosystem.

But what about people working for more traditional tech companies such as HP, IBM, Intel, Cisco, and the like? What I've found is that the compensation packages are usually not at the same level as non-enterprise tech companies. When I got a job offer to work for a FAANG after getting laid off from HPE, while my new salary was a modest 10% raise, what made a big difference was the RSU grants. (Unfortunately things didn't work out, but that's another story.) This difference in compensation matters, especially when it comes to milestones such as starting a family and purchasing a house. It's much easier to purchase a home within commute distance to Silicon Valley when you have six figures worth of stock to sell (which is possible at some FAANG companies for employees who spend a few years at the company) than when you don't (which is the reality for many non-FAANG engineers in Silicon Valley).

For those working for more traditional enterprise companies, their compensation would go much further in places like Houston, Sacramento, or even some Seattle suburbs (think Kent or Lynwood, not Bellevue or Redmond), where they can comfortably afford a house, as opposed to Silicon Valley where purchasing in even Livermore or Gilroy may be stretch goals. I'm back at an enterprise company that announced months ago that we'll be working primarily from home even after COVID-19 ends, only coming to the office infrequently for meetings. While owning a house in Silicon Valley seems like an impossible dream for me, I could decide to move to a place like Sacramento, where I can afford to buy a house on my salary and still be close enough to Silicon Valley to drive to infrequent meetings.
I would love to that you are right - but it not so easy.

I have two G Suite domains and I'm utterly and absolutely confused.

- in one domain I have "Chat" just under "Important" messages. But somehow I cannot send any chats. I see only chats from 2018 or so (when they shutdown Gmail Chat). The cool thing is that they look like read email messages. But I cannot send any chat.

- in other domain I have "Hangouts" but no Chat.

I hope this real world example illustrates why parent comment is correct when asking "Which one?".
The bigger problem China has is mid-flight refueling, iirc they only have 4 tankers. So in reality they probably can't get very far from shore. They still have a ways to go in terms of operational experience.
Lightning Labs | Lightning Infrastructure Engineer, Business Operations, Designer | San Francisco | Onsite or Remote | Full-time

https://lightning.engineering/

Lightning Labs is hiring! We’re looking to expand our team to build technology that scales Bitcoin and blockchains. Our current focus is the development and deployment of the Lightning Network, an open blockchain scalability protocol. We push the edge of innovation with regard to blockchain scalability, privacy-preserving smart contracts, and cryptocurrency UX. If you’re interested in one of the positions below, please apply using our careers page: https://lightning.engineering/join-us. And if you know someone who might be a good fit, we'd very much appreciate any referrals.

{Lightning Infrastructure Engineer}:

We're looking for a systems-oriented engineer who will design and build out key components to support the growth of the Lightning Network. These tools will lower the barrier to entry for operating Lightning nodes and enable existing node operators to more effectively manage their infrastructure. You'll work on products such as Lightning Pool (https://lightning.engineering/pool/), as well as other Bitcoin-based backend systems to make Lightning more useable, and secure.

{Business Operations}:

This role will work directly with the VP of Business Operations in supporting the people management and business operations activities that help our team and company scale. This role will support the Business Development team with lead management and outreach efforts as needed. The ideal candidate has strong generalist skills, interest in bitcoin and Lightning, and a passion for helping businesses grow.

{Designer}:

Lightning Labs is looking for an ambitious designer with a passion for the bitcoin space. This role will be focused on developing the UX and visual design for Lightning Terminal and a series of upcoming products that will drive further Lightning Network adoption. The ideal candidate will be excited about the opportunity to build user experience strategies for new Lightning technologies. We're working with a highly engaged Lightning Network community and ecosystem, and are looking for someone who wants to be a part of building its future. This is a part time role, with the possibility of deeper engagement in the future.
That doesn't mean it blindly "mounts" it as a disk and attempts to use it as a filesystem. They're almost certainly using it in a manner that is aware of the specificities of how S3 works.
The OP sounds like it was a memory-safety bug, so this is a bit pedantic.

I was one of the earliest customers of Front and there is still so much more they can do. For any team that uses email, Front has so many nice features that don’t work or are hard to get working with other email clients.

For a small support or sales team I highly recommend it and I’m looking forward to their growth and hopefully future innovation. Happy to answer more about how we used it and why I love it as a product.
The gist of what I got from the post you're replying to, which I agree wasn't well fleshed out, is this:

If everyone gets a $200 smart watch, and 1/10th of those people avoid obesity, we can avoid $20,000 a year in diabetic care and heart surgery and hip replacement for them when they get to be 60.

Completely made up numbers of course, but speaking as one smartwatch wearer, the nudges built into the system play a significant role in keeping me heading to the gym.

It doesn't follow that we'd get the same effect if everyone wore one! But there's something to the case they're making.
Surprised not to see wireshark (or tcpdump) in there. Good list, though.
Similar experience on my side. I was sitting on the fence between an Apple Watch and the Garmin 945. I'm quite pleased with the Garmin 945 all day tracking, the ability to track activities for over 12 hours (GPS, routing, and bunch of metrics), and good battery life. While the software ecosystem in Garmin feels a bit rough, it's usable. It's the software that makes it stand apart from these lower priced offerings. Even the Garmin VivoActive has interesting metrics when paired with software Garmin Connect.
Apart from the technical differences between the formats, Apache isn’t a company with a portfolio of products and services. It’s a community where efforts might overlap or even compete.
There is also DustJS [1]. It is much more popular.

I know it's highly effective at creating antibodies and preventing symptoms. But I thought it said even if you developed the antibodies, you could still be a carrier and spread it asymptomatic ally. They didn't say how common that case could be.
I agree. This article is an N of 1 from the perspective of a fairly new grad. It's useful for what it is.

I've worked with a lot of software engineers who would do a lot better for themselves if they understood the basics of how a computer works (eg: what's a program counter.) There is definitely a rift of "engineers" whose discipline amounts to gut feeling and whatever code works at the time. This is ok for ephemeral software but isn't for complex projects.

Getting an education has value. Getting a good education is valuable. Getting the right education pays dividends.

Finally, learning how to think critically and solve problems is where it's at. (IMHO)
Sorry for my flippant comment. I was actually more serious than I sounded like:

Underlying ADHD can sometimes cause depression and other weird comorbid things. If you treat the ADHD, the depression might get better. (I've seen it happen to friends.)

Yes, in the very short term, stimulants also make you happy directly. But that effect is fleeting and subject to building a very quick tolerance.
Teams just doesn’t seem very good for team collaboration outside of video/audio. Their client feels cramped and stifling and their web version is not feature complete. Basic stuff like just linking to a document or wiki page or tab in Teams doesn’t work well so you end up with stuff like “Open the Foo team, look in the Bar channel and click the second link in the header to see the dashboard.” instead of just adding a link to it.

The integration and embedding of office/powerbi/etc is neat, but it forces it into a Teams frame.

For some reason, some things launch SharePoint with its own bag of shit for trying to make its own version of web sites.

I’m in a big org with Teams for almost a year. We have thousands of employees who aren’t as active as hundred person free slack open source projects. People aren’t using it to communicate much with each other.

They keep emailing, or texting or IMing. I get more Skype IMs a day than Teams. And do you know how horrible Skype is?

Because of this, I think it sucks as a superset of Slack. Sure, it nominally has all those features, but in practice they aren’t usable.

I hope that MS just keeps iterating and it eventually gets better. I think it’s better now than a year ago.
Maybe insisting that this type of core service get provided by charitable nonprofits, which inherently can't sell to for-profits?

...Yeah, I'm not expecting that to happen en masse either, honestly, as long as we live in capitalism.

Afaik all spectre/meltdown family attacks are possible even with a single OoO execution. But increasing the quantity(adding more complexity) might cause new batch of security issues ofcourse.
I ran across issues where files that we PUT in S3 were still not visible in Hive 6+ hours later. It only happened a few times out of hundreds of jobs per day for jobs running daily the last 2-3 years, but it was annoying to deal with when it happened because there wasn't a lot we could do beyond open tickets with AWS.
What are they going to do? Spread post-structural, i.e. communist, philosophies and trick "researchers" into destroying our country with constant lies while hiding behind civil rights issues?

Or does our IC actually mean hacking instead of counter-propaganda this time?
Deep focus is very precious and really requires immersing oneself in the topic - oftentimes far away from a screen or blinky lights. Rich Hickey has a great quote about hammocks: when you're in one, nobody can tell you're not sleeping.

Yes.

They both don't have much of a low at low doses. And in any case, you wouldn't be getting a high from either any more after a few days of using them, tolerances to the high build very quickly.

My original comment was a bit flippant. I was obliquely hinting at perhaps treating an underlying ADHD, because that's sometimes cause for depression and something that's relatively easy to rule out (or treat) with eg some over-the-counter nicotine patches.
Clicking in every channel to see what’s new is insane. I’m in 15 “teams” and they each probably average 10 channels. I see the alerts that there are new messages but I would need to go into each one to check them out.

As a result, I ignore them all.

They need some sort of “feed” feature.
> Under Apple's definition, there is no such thing as privacy from the company.

What customer privacy is Apple violating customer confidentiality? They have, arguably, the largest end-to-end encrypted messaging system, store user backups and data that they cannot access, are leading in mechanisms to prevent user tracking, and sell hardware specifically designed to reduce data customers are sending to them.
