Coding in Ada: Strings (IV) Unbounded to String
I own three Model Ms: my grandfather's 87, a '89, and a later Lexmark ('95? too lazy to look). The latter two were given to me by a colleague; they saw (what I can only assume to be, based on their original condition) extensive use at IBM before I cleaned them up. He had 7 others.

I've bolt modded the Lexmark for the day my grandfather's finally needs to be done. But all three have well withstood the test of time: my grandfather's still has most all of its rivets 33 years later. It was his only keyboard at home AFAIK; I've been using it for the last 5 years.

> The Model M has no replaceable parts.

Is categorically false. The stems, keycaps, springs, and membranes can all be replaced quite easily. Unicomp sells replacements. Many have also modded them to replace the controller with something more modern. You just need to find the right hex driver.

Just because there aren't lots of manufactuers (like with oh, say, Cherry-compatible switches or QMK boards) doesn't mean they aren't repairable or moddable.

Don't disagree with most of the rest of your points but... n=3 (+7?) data points, I've never heard of a barrel breaking under normal usage. And cleaning drinks is optional once it is dried :-) The '87 and the '89 both had coffee stains and functioned just fine. I mostly cleaned the barrel plate and moved on with usage. If I bolt mod either, I'll probably clean the membranes.

Fully agree that the Model F is more solid than the Model M. But the Model M feels a lot more solid to me than most anything modern.

Maybe I just got high-quality builds?
Interesting snippet from the terms of service:

> For Services provided on Mars, or in transit to Mars via Starship or other spacecraft, the parties recognize Mars as a free planet and that no Earth-based government has authority or sovereignty over Martian activities. Accordingly, Disputes will be settled through self-governing principles, established in good faith, at the time of Martian settlement.
It probably depends where.

I was signing contracts or giving GO/NOGO for others (as customers of vendors, very large contracts) and I was getting invitations to dinners, sport events or "company walk-though" in interesting places (that I never took because this the way I work). These were "normal" sales invitations, no hidden agenda.
What Are the Ultra Fast Keto Boost Review Ingredients?
Keto Boost won't work appropriately if not utilized on a ketogenic diet, as it acquaints exogenous ketones with add to the ones effectively present in the body. Without help from anyone else, it won't create the ideal impact. Other than this, observe the fixings present as they may cause a response if the client is susceptible to any of the segments. This is valid for each dietary enhancement.

Someone will get fired because of a blunder. All the others would just say "oh, but this would have never happened to me".
Their justification, at least in the United States is Article 1, section 8, clause 8 of the Constitution:

“To promote the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries.”

You can argue the meaning of "limited times" and "discoveries" and the interpretation of all that, but the justification is that by providing a limited monopoly, the inventor gets a period to make money uncontested, after which the invention is available to the community.

The alternative, a "trade secret", means that the invention may die with the death of the inventor and be lost to the community.

I have seen too many people that have the same excuse. The advise I gave them is to forgot all the things learnt from IPv4 and study IPv6 as a totally new IP stack.

The problem is people look at it from IPv4 view, which is a currently a mess with IPv4 exhaustion.

> Forth compilers can be bootstrapped from not-very-much assembler on an embedded system. That's not really true for Lisp and Smalltalk

Sectorlisp[0] is an attempt to make a lisp that can fit in a bootsector (512 bytes). It's currently ~1.5 bootsectors; larger than the smallest forths, but certainly in the same ballpark.

Stage0[1] is an attempt to make a boostrappable seed from a minimum of binary dependencies. I recommend taking a look at what it says[2] on the matter, though it's too long to quote here.

> In reality, teather claims their reserves are cash and cash equivalents

In reality, Tether claimed that they held full reserves, in cash, audited.

Then they failed to ever produce an audit.

Then they admitted, in court, that they did not actually have full reserves.

Then they admitted that the reserves were not actually in cash, but in "cash and cash equivalents", never specifying what exactly "cash equivalent" meant.

So we KNOW for a fact that they have lied repeatedly about their reserves. Why, exactly, would we trust anything they say about those reserves NOW? Why are you assuming they have stopped lying?

If you are doing user interfaces, split the part computing values from the part displaying them. If you are not doing user interfaces that does not apply. What applies in both cases is that automated tests are your friend. In the user interface case the part calculating values needs them most.
I just returned an item and they arranged for a courier to collect. They acknowledged the return after one day and credited my account the following day.

The only thing I noticed is they hide the collection options under a button. By default they encourage you to drop off at a depot or post office.
In the UK as well, that's why you set up a direct debit payment for any subscriptions. That way you can cancel it at any point and the company can't continue taking your payments any more. If they genuienly think you should still be paying them, then they can sue you for the money, which of course they won't over a £9.99/month subscription. Paying with a debit card is a bit of a mistake because the company can just keep charging it - althought that is also solvable by just ringing your bank and asking for a new card with a fresh number.
It's one of these issues that don't seem to be a big deal until they affect you personally.
I think this gets to the crux of it. Tether/iFinex isn't just a bad player, it's a bad player that has become the plumbing of the crypto space.
Also forms. Django forms and admin packages make it very productive and appealing. I have yet to see a JS framework pull it off, because if they did, I'm sure it would be a huge hit.

There's not a universal credit score in the UK. There are a bunch of providers who will try and sell a score to you, but the actual score can vary greatly from provider to provider and guarantees nothing in terms of getting accepted for credit.

Banks giving out loans will look at the data behind the score along with a bunch of other factors. It's very possible that if Experian say person A is average and person B is good, a bank may decide to give Person A a better rate on a loan based on different data, or different weighting of the data.
Adding my 2 cents over a number of otherwise good advice: know your tools, maintain them. I have worked years on embedded SW. Often the tools suck:

- complicated or unreliable build

- debugging with traces, sometimes traces are not even reliable

- slow flashing

- low acceptance of verification: Valgrind (on target), Coverity (on host)

- and worst of all: unreliable hardware.

Of course each of those items teach you something, although that's mostly patience and rigor :)

Suggestions to keep high efficiency, high motivation:

- maintain your build, fix it when partial build is broken (no "make clean all").

- optimize flashing speed

- find and use a good code indexer

- find/buy tools that will help you find bugs early: Valgrind and Coverity are in this category
There is a very, very strong suspicion that Tether is involved with market manipulation of bitcoin to keep the price high.

If that disappears, the price will be in freefall.

GBTC market cap is $37bn. USDC has a market cap of $7bn+. CME future contracts are also in the billions. No one knows for sure how many bitcoins are changing hands privately (offline liquidity). Tether is just one of the venues of trading with bitcoin.
They were looking to monetize on the people that they perceived as locked-in into CentOS. Hoping that it would be too painful for them to switch distros and just start paying Red Hat instead to stay on CentOS.

Maybe the best outcome would be any easy upgrade path to Rocky Linux. Rocky Linux being the best candidate for developing a community - which I perceive as most important to keep a project going and supported.
There is no such thing as Anglo-Saxon continuation. Somehow, with the invention of nation states, we picked this this concept of cherry-picking our history even if most of the times doesn't make any sense. So, you will have England which pushed the Anglo-Saxon agenda, Scandinavian countries with Viking (more like Norse, since Viking was a border security job) stuff, Romanians think they are the continuation of the Roman rule, without taking into consideration the many people that settled or migrated through the country like Dacians, Goths, Huns, Germanics, Pecenegs, Slavs, Avars, Mongols, Turks, Romani, etc. I would stay away from these, since mostly they are used by right-wingers to push xenophobic agendas. Even Greeks still believe they are the same people as the Ancient Greeks. The problem nowadays is that with popular media and games, we think about these ancient people like some form of Gods and we create an unrealistic image about what they actually were, we even replace the actual history with an alternative one. Most of them were uneducated, poor, malnourished and their only hope was to survive the next day. Less than 1% of the population of that period created the meaningful stuff that we enjoy today when reading about Roman, Greek, Norse, Celtic, etc cultures. There is no reason to attach yourself to a specific "history" when the world is wealthy in knowledge and culture as it is today.

Please, use the library, not games or popular entertainment (documentaries, your avearage YouTube history video, etc).

We aren't.

> Is this true for roads? No new schools, parks or research agencies until corruption is gone? It seems over the top to me.

It's not. In the background schools/hospital/roads are being build/rebuilt just fine.

This is only about the projects personally spearheaded by those at the very top, i.e. Boris Johnson and those close to him. These seem to be almost exclusively ways to funnel money to friends and relatives. Afterwards it usually comes out that the contract was awarded without tender on the personal reccomendation of the minister, or that the advice of the officials on who to give the contract too was overriden. Boris Johnson's former Chief Advisor is currently defending himself in court on this point: https://goodlawproject.org/case/money-for-dominic-cummings-m...
To test the technology for next missions. This is just a proof of concept.

On the contrary, I think the issues you state are overblown. I have been using a 1989 mfg IBM model M for close to 10 years now and haven't noticed any of the problems you point out. No problems with fit & finish or longevity... I use the keyboard for gaming (fps mostly) and coding and have never had a problems with KRO.

I haven't been impressed with the few other types of mechanical keyboards I've used (which I admit is not many). The key presses just don't feel as authoritative as the model m and the model m does feel like a tank.

The only knock I can give the model m is the lack of modifier keys and remapping. I use a soarers converter to remedy these problems.

That said, would I buy a unicomp repop, or a model m at current prices? No, probably not.

What they can't measure is the fact that I won't sign up in the first place because of their poor reputation.

My guess is there are a lot of potential subscribers reading stories like this and deciding not to bother with a subscription.
How does that differ from a Twelve-Factor App[0], which is already an established concept and seems to tackle most of those concerns? I don't think expecting your dev team to know that (or learn it) is too big of an ask.

> With the growing number of people working remotely from anywhere

It's growing, but it's still tiny. Most companies doing this are willing to lose users who don't have permanent phone numbers in order to gain a quick, easy, semi-reliable way to prevent fake account registrations.

> Stick to emails. People barely ever change their emails.

This is factually wrong. People get married, get divorced, change employers, graduate from school, etc. Email addresses change a lot.

Your suggestion also misunderstands (or ignores) the entire point of requiring phone numbers. They're not as easy to register as email addresses, so you're more likely to get a 1:1 relationship between phone numbers and individuals.

I could literally go out right now and activate quadrillions of valid email addresses within 20 min, and all of them would work. I can't do the same with phone numbers.
People keep saying that this is somehow a "once in a lifetime" event in Texas, even though the last one was in 2011.

Plus, being interconnected gives you the opportunity not just to prevent grid failure, but to sell and buy electricity to arbitrage the price, which will be increasingly important in the future due to renewable energy intermittency.
Don't let your ego become entangled with your work. If you work for someone else, always remember that you're hired help and they have the final say. It doesn't matter how small or flat the company is, unless you own it, you work at the behest of another. You don't need to agree with decisions. You can think they are disastrous or completely misguided but if the CEO or tech lead wants to pursue that course, that's their prerogative.

Participate in good faith and if you think you have a valuable suggestion, make it. Best case scenario, it's taken on board and people think you're great. Worst case scenario, it's ignored, you move on and still get your paycheck. If you feel the ratio of bad decisions to good decisions is too high, just find a different job. Trying to change a bad company is like trying to change a bad romantic partner. Maybe it's possible but its a huge investment.

Don't be dogmatic. Don't get angry and don't be obstinate. At the end of the day, it will just wear you down. In my experience, you'll get further as the good engineer who can compromise when necessary than the great engineer who is unyielding.

Overall the best outcome is you put in your contractually obligated hours, do work that is mostly interesting or fulfilling in some way and then get your pay. If you want to execute on some grand vision or produce work that is a true reflection of you as a person, do it in your spare time or start your own company.

Banks are private institutions (even though need tax money to be saved when they screw up, they are socialists when it is in their advantage). The newly printed money is indeed "credit", over which interest is always paid... to the rich private institutions with dibs on printed money.

> Your "hope" is tactic admission that there is no alternative and admission that Apple is willing to limit choice on their platform

It's not a tacit admission. I will admit it openly. Apple has a close system with full control over it, and that's just the way I like it.

You think that it's a bad thing. I don't. There's nothing to hide on my part, I'm completely honest about it.

> which is why regulations exist to break up monopolies

Which Apple is not.

God, you're dumb, and you don't even know it.
It is mine. I don't watch much political content on YouTube, and I constantly get Steven Crowder and PragerU videos on my recommended feed. Needless to say I don't subscribe to their ideas (to put it lightly).
I could never get used to mechanical keyboards either, so I've been using a Logitech UltraX Premium for ages[1] now, a laptop-style scissor-switch design that rivals my Thinkpad X220 for typing feel.

Honestly, I have no idea what will replace it when/if it finally gives up the ghost.

[1] I bought it back when USB keyboards were the hot new thing to have, back in the stone age.
There's a difference, though - the Romans and Normans took over the government, but left the existing population largely intact. The Saxons and Danes moved in, displacing/killing/enslaving the existing population and replacing it with their own people.
My very simple model of this is based on this old blog post[0] by Ben Bernanke. Basically: there is a "natural interest rate" which we can't observe directly, but we can infer it. All the central bank can really do is try to match this. If it sets rates higher, it hurts growth (people will just park their money rather than invest); if lower, it overheats the economy (people will push their money into overly risky endeavours).

The natural interest rate is basically a reflection of the country's expected growth (in terms of demographics and resources). In a shrinking, deflationary society (eg Japan), the natural rate is low/negative, and there aren't really monetary (or even fiscal) tools to affect this.

It's possible that in the US, the years of explosive growth are gone, population will level off or decline, and so the long-term return on capital will tend to zero. It's also possible that there will be new macro events or technological discoveries that spark new rapid economic growth. But if it's the first case, the Fed can't be blamed for artificially keeping rates low. (I'm not an economist, and am probably wrong on a lot of this.)

> The implied reverse therefore would be that it's easier for people on the right to see bias in the media.

Yeah, that's also what I read. And as evidence to the contrary I pointed out that some people had their world view changed so much that they tried to overthrow the government.

Which tells me that they didn't see the agenda they were being pushed.

Which contradicts the comment's point.

Note that in no way do I disagree that the left has a problem too.
Is this a bait-and-switch kinda move? Welp, relying on ones passwords stored in a SaaS always had that risk I guess.

Friction. Getting a second phone number requires you to actually spend time and money on it. And with services blocking "prepaid" phone numbers (as mentioned above) you need either multiple phones or constantly swapping cards. Most people don't want to go through the hassle.
