I made it for myself because my notes were getting too disorganized.
It guarantees works for everyone. I lost all my excess weight in just 2 months, first time ever in my life going on a diet. And as a physicist I was convinced from the start that a caloric deficit MUST work. It did.

Yes, what I can say it will be harder for some persons than others. The hormonal environment in the body can not be disregarded and can be either disrupted or genetically different. STILL, restricting your eating habit (caloric deficit), will.always.work.
I would think so. Can anyone eli5 why statically linking binaries is a big deal?
Even light weight container oriented linux distributions like alpine ship with musl. In which scenario would it find it use cases?
It may be problem with car infotaiment handling of Android Auto, not with Android Auto itself. Bugs in Carplay or Android Auto were very rare in contrast to infotaiment bugs that were causing CarPlay, Android Auto or Baidu Carlife unusable.
BSDs traditionally don't have a stable syscall ABI.

Windows never had a stable syscall ABI either.

Almost only Linux does it... because the kernel and libc are maintained as separate projects in the Linux world.
> Pasta and meat together are common in Italy.

As you can see in the results of the search you linked, its all ragù or other tiny bits of sausage.

The reason why pasta and meat is considered dumb ("bad grammar") in most parts of Italy is that a big chunk of meat would off the pasta/meat ratio in a bite.
There's no reason for an operating system to have a stable system call ABI. A stable ABI means that the kernel support boundary grows forever and that userspace shims are impossible in the general case. And what's the point? Calling through libc or ntdll or whatever is appropriate on a given system is no great burden. Go's libc avoidance is just hubris.
Sure, you can invest more money to bring that number down. But, historically, we have this now.
Maybe because silos are an important target for the attacking side? So you want to have many in order to reduce the risk of being left without arms in case your enemy attacks first?
> Everyone knew this was a bad idea, and the truly curious thing is, how does anyone who greenlit this on any level still have a job?

Nothing succeeds like failure.. In my experience at multiple companies in tech and elsewhere, it is (sadly) frequently the case that the people responsible for the biggest failures are the ones who have the fastest career progression. It's a sort of reverse Stockholm syndrome where they are holding their bosses captive because as they fail the stakes for the management get higher and higher and so they get more and more bought in.

There's one person in particular that I remember from my time at Goldman. Lovely guy but every single thing he was involved in was an unmitigated disaster. Sure enough he failed his way to becoming an MD in record time.
Yes, my explanation dropped the bond term from the put call parity.
How is stadia an upgrade to Switch?

Stadia is an upgrade to nothing, as in having Stadia is better than having no way to play games. But an upgrade to a dedicated games console?
The version of explanation I have read is that it's SLC cache getting saturated(same deal as CMR cache region in DM-SMR except read/write can parallelize), and that it won't happen with enough cache amount and fast, parallel writes, so explanation differs but solution sounds right
The Transistor: a 1953 documentary, anticipating its coming impact on technology
Hi there, at TableCheck (www.tablecheck.com) we recently adopted Lightstep.

In a nutshell, running all these various components (Grafana, etc) is a royal pain in the neck. Even if `opstrace create` spawns them easily, the problem is running/maintaining them. We want someone to run these for us as a SaaS/PaaS and we're happy to pay them.

Re: your principles:

(1) The customer should always own their data --> we agree. However, we are happy for you to be a custodian of that data.

(2) We don’t want to be a storage vendor --> neither do we. We want storage to be someone else's problem. We're happy for you to use a cloud platform like AWS/GCP and charge us a 50% markup.

(3/4) Transparency, predictability of costs, open source --> all excellent.

It's reassuring to find someone who shares this sentiment. I hope people are starting to see the high cost that convenient services inevitably incur. Now we simply need the tools for individuals and small groups to cheaply create this alt-software.
Physical settlement is relativement rare in those markets.
The main purpose of the transactions there is not to get physical delivery at expiration, let alone two days after the transaction. Many contracts are cash settled and if not you can always close positions right before expiration (and maybe roll them over).

When someone buys a stock very often the purpose is to "physically" have it as soon as possible.
Because grand parents mentioned firing people...
I don't really do OS development so I was mostly using this as a microcosm of the wider practice.

Practically as long as it's trivially callable from C I'm not bothered.
Haha everyone has their own strat! My buddy runs down to the washing room in his apartment building whenever he has a date visiting...

You should save some electricity with a Loodio instead ;)
Good luck with your launch! Have you settled on a price yet? I didn't see one one the website.
No, “reasoning about code” is not a scam
Yes and we need to avoid the nirvana fallacy. I live in a country with public health care and every so ofter people are sent home to die from scheduled surgery because there aren't doctors or other staff available. My dad had 99% clogged heart arteries before he got treatment. My brother works in the US and prefer their system, but then he's got a good job - still a data point for the discussion.
Yes. You have to install an outside temp sensor or use an Ecobee smart thermostat. That and check the windows for condensation.
On android 9+, giving it the permission is not enough.

You must also enable the GPS and wait for it to lock your position :( :( :(

So yeah, it's a function designed to force you give away your location (masquerading as a privacy feature)

Not Peter but I learnt Chinese

First I wasted a lot of time looking for how to study Chinese. The best thing to do is to consistently practice. Don't worry about grammar.

Just try learn new words everyday and then deliberately practice them with speakers.

No tool will help you with this.

Try to identify why you need to study Chinese. You'll learn much faster if you need rather than want to learn it.if you don't have a need try to create one.

Learning characters is much easier than you think. The hard part about Chinese for me is the pronunciation and when you finally get good enough to hold conversations understanding that people don't say what they mean.
The best way to destroy an enemy nuclear weapon is by hitting it with one of your nuclear weapons. Add on top of that your other strategic targets and a reserve, and the fact that their calculation is the same as yours, and you can see where this is going.
Which is the reason I prefer websites to apps. Ok, there are certain tasks that are not feasible without an app. Mostly though, what's done in the app could be done on a website. And the website is by far more accessible through a wide variety of devices with a range of operating systems.
Yeah I wanted to do that but I was scared of playing with electricity so I built the first prototype with a raspberry Pi and soldered on a PIR-sensor to it.
I benchmarked some of the most popular go plugin libraries here in addition to the plugin package that comes with go: https://github.com/uberswe/go-plugin-benchmark

Podaris | https://www.podaris.com/ | London, UK / REMOTE

Podaris is changing the way the world plans its cities. Our aim is to bring together all the stakeholders in the urban development process -- planners, engineers, transport technology vendors, public interest groups, property developers, and more -- in a shared modelling environment, where ideas can be iterated in a rapid and agile fashion. We have created an web-based collaborative modelling tool which incorporates aspects of GIS, BIM, transport simulation, and more. It is already being used by customers around the world.

We're a small and friendly (but extremely driven) team, and have been working remotely since before the pandemic. Come join us!

Contact: jobs@podaris.com

----------

Role: Full-stack engineer

Job Description: We’re looking for a full-stack engineer to join our growing team. You'll be able to make a big impact, joining a small but very enthusiastic team. For this role, you'll primarily focus on mathematical problems: computational geometry, parametric constraint solvers, network routing optimisation, etc -- problems that come up in the course of modeling physical transport infrastructure, as well as transport network simulation and analysis. However you should be enough of a generalist to be unafraid to dive into other areas of the application where needed.

Technology-wise, Podaris is built on Javascript/ES6, Meteor.js, OpenStreetMap, and OpenLayers, a mapping library. Your expertise with Javascript is more important to us than your experience with the particular libraries that we use. Experience with building large single-page apps is particularly helpful. Experience with OSM routing engines, transit data formats like GTFS, and GIS tools/databases is also a strong plus.

----------

Role: Customer Success Associate

Job Description: You will learn the Podaris platform to a very high level, then assist in training new customers and supporting existing customers in their projects. You have an innate aptitude for self-learning new and unfamiliar software, and have excellent verbal and written communication skills, which make you adept at teaching people who don't have such an innate aptitude. You have an interest in all aspects and disciplines involed in creating transport systems and the built environment. You're especially knowledgeable with regards to transport planning and operations, but find it easy to talk to urban planners, architects, civil engineers, and more. You've at least dabbled in many different kinds of design/planning/engineering tools, and have some experience with GIS in particular.

When not directly assisting our customers, your responsibilities will include beta-testing new functionality, improving documentation and training materials, and creating case studies that can be used for sales & marketing purposes.
Given that the docs say the biggest thing it needs is actual content, I'm not sure what character it really has.
I’m working on a Kotlin Framework to build Apps, APIs, CLIs, Jobs and Mobile apps, it’s available at https://github.com/slatekit/slatekit with docs at https://www.slatekit.com Been at it for a several years on and off, I’m not sure what’s going to happen to it, but I am using it to build a mobile app and self hosted mobile backend.
If there is a market demand for functionality without spyware, why is not there some company capitalizing on that demand?
Go Out Alone
Actually, Telegram is an open standard which allows you or me to make a compatible app.
Now, I am not sure if they are talking of such a client or an app that imitates to be one of these.
Thanks! First 100 backers get it for $99.
Air purifiers are the same. A HEPA filter, a fan, and an expensive unnecessary fancy looking plastic box.

I've made my own aswell.
Awesome! I spent a little bit of money playing around with this but gave up because it was clear that either (1) I was terrible at this, (2) adwords couldn't be good for a startup like mine, regardless of who is buying the ads, or (3) a combination of both.

I'd love to read your book! Contact info in profile.
The doctrine was M.A.D. .. or mutually assured distruction[1].

I believe the (arguably crazy) idea was that the weapons wouldn't ever be used. The fact that each nuclear superpower has a similar amount of weapons assured that the equalibrium would stop the worst from happening.

[1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutual_assured_destruction
GrapheneOS also worth mentioning. https://twitter.com/jack/status/1355295732836626432
The difference would be public fallout in case of a death. That would be really crazy, not the risk for the person involved.

In 1903, there was no radio, no TV, people would not learn about someone killed in his own contraption or boarding a risky prototype. Maximally as a short notice on sixth page of a newspaper. There was also no competing industry.

In 2021, the outrage of seeing somebody killed on video because a new ship failed would be enough to stop the program for years. Musk detractors who hate his entire style and persona would feel instantly vindicated - "see, this abominable billionare finally killed somebody, as we prophecied since 2002!". THe competition (ULA) would do its utmost to bury SpaceX under tons of papers and years of investigation, because their cheap flights are eating into Boeing et al. sacred territory.

And I think that would happen even if that person on board was not just volunteer, but an illegal stowaway.
Thanks so much! Yeah it's not much yet hopefully it continues to trends upwards.
There's still lots of improvements to be made to SwiftUI, and a lot of it still requires using UIKit. So it's definitely still early, but even with a lot of the quirks I still find the coding time a lot quicker than just plain Swift. I'd say it's a good time to start getting to grips with it, where it truly excels right now is in reusable views.
In terms of developer experience, there's a lot of work needed to be done to build out the amount of API's; you'd be amazed at how hard sometimes the most simeple task can be. Second part would be Xcode errors. They suck and make debugging an absolute pain. A lot of the time the error is vague or even missing the problem.
Lastly, backwards compatability is an issue. Some of the fixes they are making for it are only available on iOS 14> such as StateObject, so things like that make it annoying.
All in all though, I'm still a fan and slowly beginning to move to SwiftUI!
I have literally just started one - I am putting my few minutes per day up on YouTube as a screencast - "The Software Mind".

The idea is to build up my "making and marketing software products" muscles.

I am doing this in non-work, non-family hours (what few there are) and really don't care what succeeds - it's just if I do t do something I will go crazy.

I don't want a billion - I just want to really try. (without the risk of joblessness and family etc)

The first one - reviewing my kids YT watching habits with them. Got a list of others to try.

I was actually pushed over the edge by a post recently of Andy Fry who is doing a 12 startups in 12 months thing. Had to give something a go after that.
We are using kotlinx serialization in a multiplatform project where we use the same model classes in a cross platform API client and our Spring server. Tested this on Javascript and JVM so far and will likely add IOS there soonish.
what is in "What this looks/feels like" is really ADHD?

Not quite. It's the 'risk-free bond' term that I dropped from my explanation of the put call parity.

To replicate the stock, you'd buy the call and sell the put. The risk exactly balances out in the sense that a total portfolio of 1 stock short, 1 call long and 1 put short would have zero risk and behave like a risk-free bond.

(If the risk premia of the long call and the short put would not exactly balance, you could make money with very simple arbitrage trades.)
Sorry, I don't have access to a Sync 3. From a quick look at the tutorials, it looks like Sync 3 refined the look of the UI, which looks nicer, but is probably harder to use, because the buttons looks like they have smaller borders, so it would seem easier to hit the wrong ones. Also, it looks like there's more buttons on the screen, which again makes it easier to hit the wrong ones.

Sync 2 looks like junk, but if it wasn't so slow, I think that would be fine.

Sync 2 had a hook for addon apps, but never got any. Also, they killed the thing to send directions to the car before I even got my car (it seemed like it was poorly thought out anyway), and the vehicle health report too. Still lets me use an app to find the car / unlock the doors / etc; but only if the car hasn't gone into deep sleep to stop it from killing the battery.

With weapons distributed amongst all USSR holdings this implies the US was willing to nuke everything from Poland to north Vietnam.

JP from Opstrace here.

Thanks for sharing this perspective, stressing the relative value of predictability.

Of course, when things go pear-shaped the last thing you want to discover is that your monitoring pipeline doesn't work as expected. We feel you.

Your skepticism is justified and I'm super happy to see that here. We know that our future users are (and should be) quite demanding with respect to robustness of the platform.

We're not naively assuming that it's easy to build a platform that is highly available, auto-scaling, and generally worry-free.

In fact, based on our experience, we really know that we'll have to invest an incredible amount of engineering effort in order to make things super reliable and predictable. On the other hand, by making some smart decisions we can get far with little effort. We have super strong building blocks that we can rely on (such as using a cloud-provided database for storing critical configuration state).

> If you folks believe I can achieve this functionality on a per-seat basis I'd be interested in saving those six figures.

The bet is on, but of course we need a bit of time :)
The OS wasn't the problem (although Sync 3 went to QNX, and I guess this Android thing is probably Linux). It was the front end that was so slooooooow

For both sides, the most important job for the nukes was counter-force, that is, blowing up the enemy nukes. Both sides understood this, so they deployed their own nukes so sparsely that you generally need one to take out one, and since they still expected to lose a lot of them, they built spares.
Apparently, Leicester University no longer values mathematics
As per the discussion in the link, following a departmental closure attempt in 2016 which was thwarted through a number of petitions, the university seems to have decided that it's now time to attempt this once again.
