Oh. Since they have a full cache of the database I thought it was intended to be used as a separate set of servers layered in front of etcd to lessen the read load. But you're actually using it directly? Interesting. What's the impact on memory usage and scalability? Are you not worried that this will not scale over time since all clients need to have all the data?

Building Your SaaS Audience: Scaling Your Value at Scale
Helping Others is Key to Business and portraying to your potential users that you actually care about their problems. This is a win-win. The success of your product depends on this mentality.

As a maker who is building a business, you need to develop a servant's attitude, especially in the SaaS space. When you can focus on this it will spill over into your business and you can start to come across more genuine not only in yourself but it naturally develops a product-led growth strategy for you where your product starts selling itself.

I have gained so much more from starting a small community and being active in communities like this just helping and stop building a selfish business. IF you need some help let me know how to get started building a community or if you're stuck and need some ideas just reach out. I'm open to sharing the things I did (community building, management, copywriting, yadyadyada).

- What are your thoughts on this?
- Have you experienced growth from this?
- What are your issues right now?

Lay it all out.

Part2

This mentality has led me to my current project where I'm building tools that improve audience management and growth for indie makers. Tools that scale your helpfulness and value, in turn, helping you grow your business.

I could use your insight into the concept and landing page.

Yeah, I went on to read that post and also didn't quite understand their reasoning.

It seems to me that one of the benefits of the pipe operator is that it very clearly lays out the steps involved, aka

x
|> maybe_function()
|> final_function()

so that the code is dead-simple and clear. It doesn't seem nested in the say way that final_function(maybe_function(X)) is.

Granted, I don't have nearly the level of experience of the author so I can't say for sure, but it seems to me like they just haven't had enough experience with the pipe operator to see how it benefits the code "beauty".

Contrary to much common misunderstanding, sure, no real problem.

The semantics of each instruction is consume the two top stack elements and replace that with the results. You handle this by having an stack rename stack of physical registers (with additional complication for handling under- and overflows), that is assuming the current stack is

pr3 pr4 pr5

and the first free register is pr56

Then an "+" instruction is interpreted as "add pr56, pr4, pr5" and pr56 is consumed and pr4 and pr5 marked to be freed when this commits.

Because stack machines inherently introduce a lot of tight dependencies you will need to use dynamic scheduling (OoOE) to go super-scalar, but it's not a problem.

Upsides are incredible instruction density. Downside: slightly harder to do good code generation, but not really.

> Death estimates in the USA are in the 100k range, vs. Covid which has already killed more than 400k

And if you don't cherry-pick which country you cite...

Globally, the 1957 flu caused about 1M excess deaths:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4747626/

Currently, Covid is attributed to ~2M deaths:

https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/

World population in 1957-58: about 2.9 billion people.

Current world population: 7.8 billion people.

https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/world-populat...

1957 flu mortality: 1,000,000 / 2,900,000,000 = 3 / 10,000

Covid-19 mortality: 2,000,000 / 7,800,000,000 = 2.6 / 10,000

...they're about the same. Mortality varies dramatically from country to country in both pandemics.

Ah, we don't use Docker or any other container technology. Maybe that is why we aren't seeing the latency issues you are referring to.
Well, we have exactly 1 client (our 1 control server process).

So architecturally it's:

3 or 5 etcd (forget what we last deployed) <--> 1 control process <--> every Tailscale client in the world

The "Future" section is about bumping "1 control process" to "N control processes" where N will be like 2 or max 5 perhaps.

There are a few FAANG-ish companies in my country that pay well. Besides those companies, it is really hard to get a good salary. Other companies top out at 60-80k EUR. And then you'll probably need a lot of experience. It is not hard to pass the whiteboard interviews, but if the senior devs only take home 80k, why would they give you more?

I'm looking for a job change. Purely for money. Anywhere in Europe is fine actually. I mean, looking at the US, how hard can it be to earn 80k EUR with a CS degree and a few years of experience.

> Wouldn't the consequences be doing poorly on future assessments, or otherwise other visible ways of not understanding the material?

1.) The younger students are, the less they are able to think far into future. And they are motivated by that far away future even less. It is too distant for them. Even adults have hard time to be motivated by far away vision. Putting things off till last moment is pretty much normal human behavior.

2.) Not really if enough students do that. If the teachers are failing everybody, then they will have to adjust expectations. But even if they dont, this means overall less learning on students part and overall ineffective school system.

3.) The teachers tends and in fact should to explain things if you did not understood them during individual reading. The flipped classroom is not supposed to have unhelpful unapproachable teacher. Teacher do try to motivate people and help them learn. If teacher theoretically abdicated to this, then yes you have consequence. But, another consequence of having such teacher is that everyone learns less, including those who are disciplined enough to do everything.

> The frustrating thing for me as a student was always either (a) when I understood the topic and was bored out of my mind sitting through explanations of it or (b) when I didn't understand the material, and was trying to, but the other students in the class/room who did understand and were bored were distracting or otherwise soaking up the instructor's attention.

I dont see how flipped classroom would solve any of these instead of making them worst. There is still a class. The explaining part is the one where you have more of similar speed. The solving exercises is part where differences in speed show up a lot and where other students talking to teacher are preventing focus the most.
This isn't the same thing as a convenience store where they're refusing to sell to someone. This is more like a network refusing to display an ad for someone. In that Trump is displaying his own content on their platform.

I would say neither 'government' nor a 'union' are the answers in this case. In the mostly free-market based economy that we live in today (thinking of the USA and most European countries) the proper solution is to 'vote with your dollar' and go with a provider other than Google. This increases market competition and incentivizes Google to improve their services.
I get the sense that the author resents the popularity of Elixir on some level. Personally I appreciate that it removes boilerplate from Erlang and has a real macro system. I’m not picky about syntax in general but when verbosity can be eliminated I think it’s almost always a good idea.

As for his opinion on the pipe operator, I have to wonder what he thinks of do-notation and point free style in Haskell, let alone APL and its ilk.

Admittedly I don't know much about work relations in Europe but are SW engineers unionized there? A union could 1.)allow workers to aggressively collectively bargain for more money 2.)add additional requirements (licensure, education requirements, etc) to keep down the supply of labor. I'm not saying such a move would be good for everyone, but it could be good for those who become members of the union.

Docker itself doesn't add much latency. It just makes getting MySQL and PostgreSQL easier. If anything, it helps with dependencies. The database server startup still isn't great, though.
> Many F500 type companies pretty much MUST have O365.

This is the problem. Putting Linux support aside, focusing too much on enterprise, while necesseary up to a point, kills both the product and personal productivity tools market.

Is wanting to decouple work and personal files completely while retaining independence on personal systems a cardinal sin?

IMHO, touting about benefits of a work/life balance is moot if I can't completely shut-off work stuff from my life while using my computer. Dropbox, Evernote and Trello allows me to do that. None of my work stuff is present in these mediums. Similarly none of my work stuff syncs to my personal computers directly. I use company laptop for that stuff.

Trello also went the same route. Trello Gold was a personal productivity powerhouse. Now it's unmaintained, intentionally crippled semi-premium version of Trello Business class.

Do I need to set-up a VPS, install {Next,Own}cloud to it and install all my tools as add-ons there to have a personal productivity space? In 2021? That shouldn't be necessary, that wasn't the promise.

Yet we are here. Every product is targeting the enterprise, where the freelancer or the personal productivity enthusiast is either confined to its corporate licenses or expensive (in terms of time) self-hosted solutions.
The vaccine to senior citizens is a game changer here. If successful, it'll cut deaths by over 90% at which point safety protocols can be drastically loosened.
I'm not sure that it's really a 2 week thing.

It was going badly before Christmas, compared to earlier, and the break of Christmas/St Stephens made a gap in the testing, and then it slammed upwards over the next week, overwhelming the IT and health professionals dealing with turning positive swab numbers into confirmed cases.

By NYE, there were 9k tests in limbo that weren't in the stats.

At the point where the daily positives get over 2k, that's with a different test population. They're no longer testing contacts of people with COVID, they're testing people with symptoms. The positive rate went from 8% -> 40% in that time.

Anecdotally, I had no 1st order contacts with Covid (i.e., I know them well, rather than my sister's friend sort of thing), and over Christmas that went to more like 5 in three separate clusters.

The links in this article are amazing. Most go to academic papers. All articles, including regular news articles, would benefit from that kind of linking.

Huawei by virtue of being Chinese is definitely sexist against men letting women retire 5 years earlier.

They are also clearly ageist as they make sure some employees earn way too much so that they retire early in their 40s. From the article:

“The retirement age in China is 60 for men and 55 for women. At Huawei, however, according to our sources, it is common to end one’s career already in one’s mid-40s. When long-serving Chinese managers reach this age, they often cash out the value of their company shares and effectively retire.”

-

It is great to see the funders of this journalism are against this ageism in tech and include the likes of the McArthur foundation and Soros affiliates.

Great that the article highlighted some potential management glass ceilings for Europeans in the Chinese company. The Chinese should learn from the lack of glass ceilings to non-Europeans in European companies. Or how egalitarian and meritocratic they are in hiring and don’t even care about formal diplomas or your ethnic background.

It baffles me why any (western) European would move to the US and leave behind such great meritocratic European tech companies.

It's also different because Stockfish uses Alpha-beta treesearch instead of MCTS:
MCTS tries to deal with an explosion in search-space by only sampling very small parts of the searchspace and relying on a very good heuristic to guid that search process. In this case it is crucial to find the most relevant subset of the tree to explore it, so spending more time on your policy makes sense.

Alpha-beta pruning however always explores the entire searchtree systematically (up to a certain depth using itd) and prunes the searchtree by discarding bad moves. In this case you don't need as good of an evaluation function because you search the entire tree anyways. Rather you need the function to be fast, as it is evaluated on many more states.

In general AB-pruning only needs the heuristic for estimating the tail-end of the tree and for sorting the states based on usefulness, while MCTS uses all the above plus guiding the whole search process.
Spending tons of time on the heuristic is not useful as even the optimal search order can only double your searchdepth. Don't get me wrong that still a lot (especially considering exponential blowup) but MCTS can surpass this depth easily. The disadvantage is that MCTS loses a lot of the guarantees of AB-pruning and tends to "play down to his opponent" when trained using self-play because the exploration order is entirely determined by the policy.
