Sounds pretty complicated. It doesn't seem like something I would want to participate in. I don't participate on most social networks, though.

I don't mean to boast, but make a point that such a service seemingly won't add any value to folk like me. Just from past work connections alone, I get 1 or 2 phone calls a year from direct acquaintances wondering if I want to join a serious startup from the start. I also get a handful of linkedin messages a week from recruiters despite not having even looked at my own profile in 5+ years. It literally requires no effort on my part. All I've done through my career is find projects I'm inherently interested in, focus on the technical work with heart and conviction, and always try to be a friendly and helpful coworker.

Likewise, if somebody's resume primarily featured a social credit score like this above hands-on domain relevant experience, it probably wouldn't stack up too well against other resumes, unless their high score was specifically due to them cleverly gaming the algorithms and documenting it or something. That would make them an interesting candidate!

Semi-related: when people talk about monorepos, is it implied that all the project has only one version number? Why not just version subprojects of the monorepo, that way you have a small vetting process when cutting a release of a specific subproject. The rest of the subprojects that depend on it can read the release notes for breaking changes, etc.
If you are an indie artist (no record label deals) and agree to Spotify's terms, how are major labels involved at all? How are they getting the payouts meant for you?
Okay, great. Actually not a PR desaster reaction for people improving a stupid situation for once.

If they now spent that money to let one of their presumably competent developers profile the thing for a few days or hours you could probably cut the loading time again by that much or much more.

This brings me to a general software gripe. Why do companies seem to love to ship products of unacceptable quality? There are many things I don't like about Apple, but is there anyone else who actually cares what they ship?

For highrise buildings I agree that you should need approval to touch the utility infrastructure.

I was referring more to HOAs for suburban blocks, which are extraordinarily common in the US. Many of them are obsessed about whether you can park your car in the driveway, what kind of car you're allowed to own, what kinds of plants you can plant in your front yard, the color of your house, modifications to the aesthetics of your house, and other stupid things. Welcome to the "land of the free".
If I offended you, I'm sorry. The terminology we are using in this context was not invented by me. My only intent with the post was to clarify the definition of the term in question.
I liked when they were paper and easy to remove. It reads like a rant from an mentally unstable religious nut, and not of the religious brands I tend to like. Love the product but prefer to pass on the monotheism. But still, an all around good company.
> We made a change to compute these replica checksums prior to taking the lock. By precomputing the checksums, we’ve been able to reduce the lock to under 1 second, allowing more write operations to succeed immediatelly.

Isnt this changeset introducing a race condition? One of the replicas' checksum could change between the checksum is computed and the lock is taken. Otherwise, there is no need for the lock at all.

That's assuming you can get salt in time for the storm, or even at all at that point. At least on the consumer side, a lot of the manufacturing facilities that produce deicing salt switch over to producing fertilizer around new year's. A year or two ago we had a late winter storm and all of the stores in the area were out, and their warehouses too.

> the popularity that Docker gained seems to highlight that perhaps something was missing from those older technologies.

I would put money on it being the Dockerfile and the developer UX around that.

I don't honestly find it any more slick to use than e.g. FreeBSD jails, but I've lived in unix for long enough that that's because I was re-using lots of knowledge I already had.

There's a comparison here to the fact that I'm perfectly comfortable writing SysV rc scripts (though BSD rc scripts are vastly more pleasant to put together) but I've watched enough people struggle their way to something that only mostly worked that I can see why for many people writing a systemd unit file instead is a vast improvement.
The one thing that stops me from getting a Librem 14 is the utterly hateful decision to have a tiny right-shift key to the right of the up arrow. Like seriously wtf Purism?
It's interesting that the moment RMS speaks about really crystalizing software freedom in his mind was when he couldn't access the software running a printer so that he could add a feature. It seems like every generation needs their own evil printer (or printer-like) manufacturer to radicalize the next round of user rights advocates.
> For example, it's more or less impossible to write a Java program that runs on Windows, Android, and iOS

Not only is it possible, it happens all the time.

The entire Maven Central repository, which contains tens of thousands of JVM libraries, is usable on all the platforms you just listed.

If that's not portability, I don't know what is.
I look at the vaccine vs. virus risk profile quite differently.

I am in my mid-30s, with good levels of vitamin D, and I'm prepared to treat any Covid infection I do get with a protocol including ivermectin and various vitamins which has proven effective where it has been tried in India in Mexico. I'm not going to die from it (certainly don't have a "pretty f*&^ high risk"). The long haul risk is a little bit more substantial, but having a treatment lined up reduces my risk a lot there too, and in the vast majority of cases it is not debilitating and I'm optimistic that treatment methods will be found.

So the "risk of ruin" from the virus is basically nonexistent. What's my risk of ruin from the vaccines? We really have no idea because they're new and almost completely untested (in some cases this is even true of the techniques used). If there's even a 0.1% chance of the vaccine causing some sort of debilitating, significant harm, that's a far worse bargain for me than taking my chances with the virus. The chances of something like antibody dependent enhancement are essentially impossible to predict until the vaccine's interaction with the circulating virus has been observed for many more months (ideally through another winter season). It will probably take at least a couple of years of seeing the vaccine in widespread use for this risk calculus to tilt the other way for me.
The EPR and AP1000 were supposed to be standardized designs for overcoming the "bespoke" problem you mention and ushering in a new era of predictable, affordable nuclear projects. The projects in the US and Europe ended up as scheduling and financial disasters; they are all still unfinished, years late, and billions of dollars/euros over budget.

Maybe small modular reactors will do better. That would be great! But at this point I'll believe cost/schedule numbers only after a new reactor enters commercial operation. The numerous reactors that exist only in PowerPoint form belong in the same bin as the Battery Breakthrough of the Week.
Jirav is super slow. Causal is a pretty close competitor to this but more “general purpose” and built for complex forecasting.

Yeah definitely, a conversion or revenue-based pricing model is interesting to explore. We landed on per-seat as we've noticed expansion to individual sales reps so they can share personalized demos with prospects. That said, it's still something we're working on refining.

> ...unlike my grandpa, who probably wouldn't give a fuck about what the world thinks about his cabin...

I'm pretty sure 98% of people throughout history who have built a cabin -- or any other sort of home for themselves -- were inordinately proud of it, and the extent to which they showed it off was limited primarily by how many people they could force to come see it.
It's also interesting to note how much of Microsoft's work for handling large repos in git has merged upstream directly into git itself.

One very interesting part of that is the effort that has gone into the git commit-graph: https://git-scm.com/docs/commit-graph.

It's part of what makes scalar interesting compared to some of the projects you hear mentioned used inside the FB and Google gates: not only is scalar itself open source, but a lot of what scalar does is tune configuration flags to turn on optional git features such as the commit-graph, sparse checkout "cones", etc that are all themselves directly supported by the git client. Even if you aren't at the scale where it makes sense to use all of the tools that scalar provides, you can get some interesting baby steps by following scalar's "advice" on git configuration.
If nothing else as time goes on there's less and less 'later on' and more and more stuff to revisit; perhaps you'd naturally see this kind of pattern if you accumulate more and more knowledge debt and spend more time paying it down to get a firm foundation.
But there is conditional logic "hidden" in lambda mapping.

You want it without ANY conditional logic try this

The one about having a garden? If so it sounds like you're in suburbia, not a rural area.

Get somewhere actually rural, like a town with less than 1000 people or an area with most people in agriculture. Somewhere people can't see their neighbors. You'll find most people don't care about suburban nonsense like preening lawns and HOAs.
I originally disagreed with you but on the other hand there are merits to your position. I don't believe it refutes the need for pushing the right to repair to its limits. But it does show that there are limits, coming from the increasing sophistication of technology and thus the amount of specialized knowledge required to maintain it.

However, arguments can be made in the opposite direction that restrict total system throughput in favor of greater robustness of its parts. To push technology to operate at higher throughputs we often need to make it more complex.

My specific arguments reduce to "let's just consume less as a civilization so we can last longer overall" which is a moot point though
We are talking about a company based in San Francisco.

I am pretty sure they changed the phrase to "freedom of expression" and removed the passage that said this was the original definition of free speech so in my mind they corrected the article enough to get their point across without getting bogged down.

I think the person is just saying that pre-emptively salting the road (before snow/freezing rain actually lands) provides some additional level of safety because the road might spend less time with a frozen coating (as opposed to salting only after the surface is frozen over).

Interesting points, I did not know about these actions in South America. I don't want to be too generous to Pfizer/Biontech and you rightly point out the need to be cautious with these companies especially if they are in such an influential position. However my guess would be that legal risks in countries with weaker rule of law protections (for reference see this report https://worldjusticeproject.org/rule-of-law-index/) is a lot higher. You might find yourself in a position where a court rules against you although you did not commit any crime – or you might presume that there is a possibility that you will be in such a position. If you want to protect yourself and have an extremely strong negotiation position, you might write very far-reaching liability clauses.

This in itself could – imo rightfully – be seen as a deplorable strategy because you are dictating these rules for a life saving vaccine. But it does not imply that you are committing any crimes at the moment.
Buying direct from producers, Costco, Costco.com, and I'm consciously buying less stuff that I don't actually need (stuff that I would have previously purchased from Amazon).
No need to go so far. There's enough desert type land in Spain that isn't really useful for anything else. Covering it with solar panels may actually improve the ecosystem, as shrubbery could grow underneath it (or use semi-transparent panels mounted 10m above the ground, and you'd have a nice greenhouse).

Musk claimed the entire US could be run on solar power with a 100 square mile (258 km2) patch of land - that's smaller than Malta. Batteries to ensure a continuous supply would need 1 square mile.
Kubernetes is so much more than most people should want or need. It's far too complicated and heavyweight for smaller or simpler deployments. In AWS, most people should use ECS/Fargate instead. There are other competing container environments as well. Your point still stands; Docker popularized containerization and are in danger of becoming irrelevant because they ceded the container execution environment to others.
I bet none of them is a laptop.
Yeah. I like Taimur, Lukas and the Causal guys a lot more :)
He's comparing an optometrist to a storefront eye exam. I've had one of those storefront eye exams once when traveling--better than nothing but the off by nearly a diopter. These days I'm much more sensitive, an error like that would leave me in a fair amount of pain. A quarter of a diopter change (my vision is nothing like stable) sends me running back to the optometrist I trust (I've had others not get it accurate enough.)

On the other hand, I've known my wife to be half a diopter off and not think the new lenses were any better. (Replacing a several-year-old damaged pair.)
I have an older system76/galago laptop(Intel graphics). I use it with 2 external 4k(HP/Z27) monitors with no issues. Previously used with 1 4k, 1 1920xSomething/Portrait.

Here's a quote from a Forbes article:
"With a review system like that of CryptoTask, reviewers are token holders that stake an amount equal to the task value that they are putting themselves forward for as a potential reviewer. It means that being a stakeholder, you already have a chance of being selected. That chance is directly proportional to that individual's stake, so this prevents sybil attacks.

If they do, however, get randomly selected to be a reviewer and the task goes into dispute, they are required to cast a vote on whether or not they think the task was actually completed. If a reviewer votes against the consensus or does not vote at all, they do not lose any certain percentage of their staked amount.

Some of the benefits of such a system include:

Selection happens in secret to prevent reviewers from influencing the consensus through collusion.
A two-stage voting process (secret commit and then reveal) means reviewers can’t wait to see how other reviewers voted and then just go with the consensus.
Reviewers would generally be professionals with a relatively large token stake and therefore in a good position to escalate and vote on a dispute."

This would sum up dispute system with incentive for reviewers being 10% of the task value split among them.
Their scores on number 5 give them 2 points already (notification of update and their content, free shipping for repairs, able to re-install software).
On most of the rest (like number 4 access and price of parts) they get a shitty score of between 1.6 and 0.9

>The alternative to a covid vaccine is that you get covid. Even for young and healthy people, that can mean debilitating long-term illness.

Well that's arguable, I haven't had covid yet, and I don't plan on getting it. You had plenty of countries that handled covid without vaccines - we are where we are because western governments refused to take specific measures to control de pandemic (but this is another subject). So the alternative would be get a different vaccine.

Neither me EMA, or any regulator are advocating for not being vaccinated, I don't get where you're getting that from. The alternative to this vaccine is other vaccines, in EU alone 4 vaccines are approved and more are to come. Even AZ vaccine isn't excluded what so ever - they are investigating the potential cause.

>Allowing people with informed consent to take this vaccine will save far more lives than banning everyone from taking it.

Thankfully we have regulators that prevent such behavior. If there's a QA issue no one should be vaccinated with the batches affected by that, because proper QA seem to be without any of this reactions.
Because iPads don't require activation, and carrier services do require activation. The "Activation Required" message is specifically related to cellular networking.

This could be (and I suspect very likely is) a problem with your iPad's SIM that you could check by powering off the iPad, removing the SIM and turning it back on again. It could be that there's some kind of corruption that you might need to fix by connecting it up to iTunes or even bringing to the dreaded Genius Bar. It could conceivably be some weird bug in iOS that has somehow sprung up and turned your iPad into a flat flowerpot. All of these things suck! But what it is not is Apple forcing you to "authorize" your iPad in order to let it boot up.
You can make an argument that it increases shareholder value long term because if China increases human rights, it increases the shareholder value of the world in monetary terms because people will be better off.
I don't agree that "freedom of speech" in the US is only and always equated with the First Amendment. Even if it were, the article is unambiguously concerned with the broader principle, so we should consider the article in that context.

I pushed back on your mention of the distinction mainly due to a growing tendency in which people dismiss concerns about constraints on freedom of speech/expression/opinion by arguing such concerns are only valid insofar as the First Amendment applies. (Not to say you were doing that yourself.) At best it's a tiresome debate tactic; to the extent it's believed, it's a dangerously narrow misapprehension of one of our fundamental social tenets and civil rights.
