GM was in the red for every Bolt sold, somewhere between selling each unit at a $4000 to $9000 loss[1]. And GM's CEO Mary Barra full on admitted to GM investors that GM EV's will likely not see profitability until between 2020 and 2030 [2], and AFAIK it's mostly due to focusing on Cadilliac branded EV's first.

I don't know of much reason to spend high capital to create a production line, and then take a loss per unit sold other then for compliance.

It is easy to judge.

At an old job of mine we had devices we controlled that could be rebooted. The initialization sequence after a reboot is much more network heavy than normal operation. We tried to push a critical security patch to all devices at once, meaning they all rebooted at once. Whoops self-DDOS.

Is there an interview with owner or something that explains more than it exists and hasn't been updated?
Is it possible she made this all up, for (temporary) media attention?

Here she is hijacking an event for aspiring journalists to try and interview Barack Obama, who sees through this and publicly shames her:

https://twitter.com/rose_k01/status/1350053978403291138

There are multiple interviews of her talking about her upcoming appointment, her class structures, here (non-existent) syllabus.

It seems like another possible interpretation of the events is that she made this all up, then blamed it all on a vague "phishing attack" to defuse any responsibility. In the months prior, her career received a boost from all the media attention. Now, she also has some level of additional fame, that while not exactly positive, could help her launch into the next phase of her aspirations
> taking a similar place to sex ed

That's a great analogy, and sadly why I don't think these classes will help as much as we'd like.

The places where they are needed the most are the places that are going to alter the content of the classes to fit their agenda. Just look at sex ed classes in strongly conservative areas.

> Another interesting thing was at the end of one of the last projects. There was a survey where we could choose between a Patagonia shirt and a plaque. Guess what? The majority voted for the plaque. That was astonishing to me but a good reminder that I seem to be different.

Holy shit. This is incredible. I’d be curious what management forced you to do during this period. Longer hours?

I wish there was some “fucked company” equivalent for tracking corporate charades like this.
Nice whataboutism. You got some ammo to back up that claim? The GOP is nothing if not unified to a fault. They're strong because they will tow the line to hold power. (Mitch hates trump and Cruz got in line even after the mud slinging about his wife.) It's fractured now but they've historically been in lock step, even when it was against their personal, publicly stated, beliefs. Democrats have been weak because they don't require the same level of kool-aid consumption.
I think I tried to take one of this dude's Unreal courses... it really wasn't very good.

He insisted on everyone using Visual Assist X (which isn't cheap) and would go through the course using VX keyboard shortcuts. VX is expensive and mutually exclusive with ReSharper (which I was already paying for), but uses totally different navigation and menus.

Then, IIRC, after a brief intro explaining some basic concepts, your first homework assignment is to create a black hole that sucks everything in and then spits it out. Without even really explaining much in the way of 'how' to do so, or what tools you use to achieve that effect, and neither spending much time teaching how to navigate Unreal docs or otherwise find the information on one's own.

Not to crap on this particular project, more that seeing the course ad on the right brought back a wave a bad memories.

Unreal is a beast to learn, and I get that teaching people to code in it is probably not easy. But this guy's course simply did not jive with me.

Contrast that with Ben Tristam's courses at Gamedev.tv, which are considerably longer, but they do a much better job of explaining what the hell is going on and how to figure out how to do what you need to do to proceed. The 4.22 guide even drops Visual Studio entirely in favor of VS Code (which I don't particularly like but will admit that VS trying to Intellisense the unreal engine source slows it down a ton)
Which one is that.
> To-do lists are for things that aren't a real priority, otherwise you would be giving them your full attention and the tracking would be unnecessary.

I disagree with this bit, but perhaps it’s because “real priority” is vague. To-do lists offload tasks from memory to ensure we don’t forget them. It’s totally possible for something to be a “real priority” (whatever definition) and someone forgetting about it.

Don’t confuse priorities with memorization.
I remember etsy shutting down a few stores that were selling masks made out of a mesh that merely looked solid for getting into stores. I assumed a decent percentage of people were never wearing things significantly better than those anyway
I had already given two examples of how you can create non-type-safe code in TypeScript. I mentioned 1) the 'var/let' way and 2) The "Not including types on parameters" way.

You then gave an actual example of #2. lol.
same here. he additionally explained several c++ concepts wrong before i gave up.
History also shows that a majority of people believing in astrology or moon landings not being real is much less harmful than a majority of people believing that the Jews are conspiring to enslave you, vaccines will kill you or even that if you don't force the VP to vote himself back into office, the President won't be able to stop children from being raped. And yes, religions can persuade some average people to do some great things or strange things or be incitement to blow themselves up in the middle of a marketplace or drink the Kool Aid. So keeping an eye on these things is probably a good idea, and if people decide certain stuff should come with content warnings or not be disseminated on their platform thats probably OK. Sure, there are slippery slopes when you start censoring stuff but there are slippery slopes when you stop too, particularly when the actual debate is less about silencing all discussion of misinformation and more about whether misinformation has an inalienable right to a megaphone.

Porn is still censored extensively even in its most inoffensive forms and people under certain ages aren't allowed to watch films with rude words, and yet people are insisting that true liberty means that whilst corporations are entitled to decide boobies and f-bombs are inappropriate for their platform, they must be compelled to host Qanon. I'm not sure that was the lesson we were supposed to take from past battles over obscenity laws.

You people really are just staggeringly dishonest.

You know very well that "armed attack" or "armed insurrection" in relation to attacks on the government refers to people with guns. (i.e. people intending to engage government forces in armed conflict)

FFS if they'd shown up with muskets dressed as revolutionary war soldiers people like you would be saying it was a "gun wielding attack" or something.
Lol, this ironic because lots of Google owned backbone fiber is along rail routes purchased by google early on.
Fascinating. I had never heard of this, and cloudfront.net is in there, which might provide a clue as to why Google only blacklisted our subdomain and not the whole thing (imagine that!).

Is there any downside to being on this list?
I have to the run all my node development in x86 emulation and it's the same speed (both subjectively and by timing) as my 6 year old mac I was replacing.

Things that rely on disk speed like npm install are much faster, though.

I tried upgrading some projects so they could run arm native, but it some cases it would have forced my colleagues to update their OS since such-and-such updated library dropped support for their OS version.

I briefly went down the path of having a patchwork of arm and x86 stuff running together (like having webpack be arm native but the rest of the project not) and it was lots of fiddling. If I wasn't careful to segregate x86 and arm into completely separate shell environments, I'd end up with ldd trying to link to shared libraries with the wrong arch during [brew, npm, bundle] install. It was more trouble than it was worth.
I remember some years ago iPhone Activesync client was retrying 5 time the same login password on authentication failure (http 401), and our AD was locking people out after 5 attempts ... We ended up writing a small proxy to fix it server side.

Google has a great service for this called Checksum. You upload a file checksum and it validates it against the database of all known bad checksums that might flag your website as unsafe. The pricing is pretty reasonable too and you can proxy file uploads through their service directly.

I'm actually not telling the truth but at what point did you realize that? And what would be the implications if Google actually did release a service like this? It feels a bit like racketeering.

Nonsense. So, here's what happened:

Drosten, Corman et al. from the Charité (among Europe's largest and most reputable university hospitals and medical schools) published a paper [1] in January 2020 [2] in the "Eurosurveillance Journal" in which they described a diagnostic workflow to detect SARS-CoV-2 (not "SARS-CoV-19", as you say) which they had developed and tested (both sensitivity and specificity). That became known as the Drosten PCR, and was the standard procedure initially to detect the virus (at least in Germany).

A group of 22 nutcases with bad English claim that the Drosten/Corman paper is severely flawed, put up a "report" "refuting" it (on a website, not published) and demand that Eurosurveillance retract it.

That report (which highlights a few very minor actual issues, but is otherwise false, misleading, and blown up entirely out of proportion) is later used by covidiots to claim that PCR testing is flawed and full of false positives, the virus doesn't exist, and further nonsense.

Needless to say, there are by now several different PCR testing protocols, they have been developed further, crosschecked, etc, and there is no major problem with PCR testing. Certainly no "big scandal".

This is political posturing and fabrication applied to medicine. Sad.

Hooks were what made me choose React to migrate to from AngularJS at work. I really like the concept of (state) => ui, but had no interest in react’s former class-based API. It was too complex. With hooks, I can write code in a more functional style, and even though they’re a little weird I think it results in more maintainable code.

I really wanted to push for using Reagent in Clojurescript, or something like re-frame that uses it, since CLJS has much better enforcement of and support for immutability-by-default and function composition. Everything that custom hooks do is handled by plain CLJS functions. It feels closer to meeting the design goals of React than React itself does, even with hooks.

It’s a hard sell though when I’m the only one at the company who knows the language. Maybe someday...
I have guns. I like them. I even have an NRA membership that I can't get rid of. The NRA is not just a bogeyman, they're also the real problem. I'm with you. Sensible gun owners want (and should want) sensible gun ownership requirements.

I've always wondered why we don't see sherpas holding all the climbing records, given how much better adapted they are to their environments than most other mountaineers. Maybe this is the beginning of a new trend! The sentiment is at least echoed in the article:

> In the 2015 newswire, Green quoted Dawa Gyalje Sherpa: "We are hoping as young climbers, to take climbing in Nepal to a new level. All of us have climbed much bigger mountains but always with foreign climbers. We want to show that we are not just porters on the mountain, climbing only for our livelihood, but we are interested in climbing because we enjoy it, too.... We are the young generation of Sherpa climbers but we are looking to the future of Nepal and Sherpas also."

Smart server dumb client makes a lot of sense in the web-dev world, where the core client code is not under your control. As soon as you need to write your own app (Android/iOS/desktop), you should revisit this decision. The server should be able to serve a status code & header that requests the client to back off for a certain time period or with certain exponential parameters.

This is a very hard thing to deploy after the fact and can really save your bacon, especially if you have a number of very old clients still out in the field refusing auto-updates. Sure, you can refuse to serve them, but if they get stuck in a tight loop retrying until you do, you're pretty hosed.
Web assembly and running in the browser are both long term goals of Gleam!

Disagree a bit on the Google example.

Echoing the input is useless. But if the program is interpreting the input somehow (like there are keywords or commands allowed), then showing the user what the program understood could be critical to finding the problem.

Minimum fees are often set because a well funded (large) player can operate a route at a loss, drive less well funded players bankrupt and then put the prices way up after they're the only provider left.

It's called predatory pricing.

I can't tell you whether the CAB or the ICC actually improved things or not and whether regulatory capture is possible/likely for Big Tech.

I'm just saying minimum prices exist for a reason and don't necessarily hurt consumers in the long term.

Toxic positivity often comes from the idea that seeking happiness is the right goal always. If you believe that then you believe anyone who is not happy is somehow failing and you can give them a hand up. The right word I think should be contentment. Happiness is impossible to have all the time. You can have contentment pretty much all the time.
Where I work yes. Small and scrappy devs who when asked to move knowledge into a Confluence or wiki page, argue that’s it’s too much work to find everything they need. They can just type in the channel they want to search in with a term and get the conversation they need.

My response is if it’s important long term, it needs to be somewhere visible and exportable should the platform change. As it is now, Slack exports are horrible and large.
They care about your privacy the way Greenpeace cares about Global Warming: in ensuring it doesn't happen.
All your examples involve government officials deciding to censor, with historically fewer media sources to comb through. This is different from social media with much wider input.

We defend the megaphones of the stupid and the fake as an insurance policy. We're wary of giving too much power to those who can yank megaphones away and pick winners and losers, because history itself shows us that the alternatives threaten all of us more than fake information.

Except people aren't entitled to megaphones of their own, nor their own newspapers or their own radio station, much less on a platform governed by an uncaring algorithm over literal million of people who might say something else.

And misinformation really do real damage to people. You can't just pretend that conspiracy theorists don't exist and can't influence people to do real damage, regardless of who's in charge and who decides what is true or false and regardless of what damage censorship did or didn't do.

I'm not sure I understand the purpose of the linked article. There are a few important distinctions, most notably (from the article itself):

> "We praise drawings ... because we want our kids to continue to work hard, and to do good work... But what we really want to teach our children... is that they should do good work because of the satisfactions it provides."

While I understand how this could apply to children (if not necessarily agree), we don't manage teams to have fun, we do want to encourage them to do good work.

As for the wider question, if a team is doing really good work, why not give credit where it's due? I feel like not acknowledging when people are putting in extra effort is a great way to discourage them from doing that.
I actually don’t mind paying for some of the podcasts I listen to, but private RSS feed links work fine for that purpose so I agree, there is no need to make podcasting a walled garden.
I probably have 1000s of plain getters and setters in my code, and I never typed ANY of them. lol. VSCode has a "Generate Getters and Setters" refactor function, and I can make them plain publics any time I want. So you can't blame the Java Language itself for their existence.

I Analysed Over 1,400 Articles in 6 Months Using Apple Notes (2020)
>Analysis of algorithms is more difficult than it appears. If you implement an algorithm in a high level language like Python you may get much worse runtime than you thought because some inner loop does arithmetic with bignum-style performance instead of hardware integer performance, for example. In such case you could talk of big-omega (your analysis is bounded-below instead of bounded-above, asymptotically).

Of course, that's why Big O says one thing, Compiler, CPU and Caches may say the other.
