> Your projects will never succeed this way, but you’ll have plenty of people to blame for the failures.

We're discussing how it failed your way, so I'm not so sure you're presenting a better alternative.

The problem with your method is that two separate companies have deliverables that must be correct, whereas with mine only one does. And my way removes the back-and-forth which is a huge source of errors.

It's fundamentally impossible (absolutely, 100%) to write specs for a complex product before the product work begins.

So you can make it work your way, with a separate firm writing the specs, but you need to couple them with the dev firm and give up on the fantasy of up-front specs.

But that comes with its own problems and increased cost so imho you're better-off just letting one firm do it.
Sweden doesn't "manage" Covid-19 according to the expectations of whoever wrote this article (no lockdowns, no masks, no "social distancing" rules, etc.).

Is Sweden "threatening the world" as well?

Or is this the usual political narrative the left-wing press uses to bash right-wing politicians?

Definitely get some rest and therapy before moving to a new venture.

For the next step it might be worth doing contract web dev as well as turning some of your comics into a product which can be sold on places like gumroad.

You could also start a youtube channel focused on your experience and tackle different niches in web development.

Yeah, you can basically do this with any packaged product:

Why buy yogurt when you can make it yourself?

Why buy salad dressing when you can make it yourself?

Why buy soy sauce when you can make it yourself?

Why buy hot sauce when you can make it yourself?

Why buy canned food when you could can it yourself?

Why buy soy milk when you can make it yourself?

Why buy salsa when you can make it yourself?

Why buy mayonnaise when you can make it yourself?

Why buy tomato sauce when you can make it yourself?

Why buy soup mix when you can make it yourself?

Etc.

It's a matter of personal taste, cost, convenience, time, resources, skill level, shelf life, day-to-day diet, etc.
I mean its plagiarism, but motivation was probably something like: I liked this comment i read on HN. It answers a question that is being discussed in reddit. I could attribute it, or just copy and paste...or so goes the modervn internet share
Sure, that mitigates the risk when an attacker finds a refresh token later and it's no longer valid because of rotation. And it means that a stolen refresh token would probably be noticeable because the legitimate user wouldn't be able to use it anymore. But in many attack scenarios the attacker would get the refresh token immediately and the time until discovery would be enough for them to cause damage, right?
That's not a technical problem, but a political one. Imagine if I said "yeah, solar sucks because people burn down the solar farms" and then you saw me sneaking away with a can of gas...

Deep geological storage, but not in salt beds, is a simple answer. And not entombed, etc. Just sitting on skids. Waiting to be inspected and repaired. I've been in deep hard-rock mines that individually would hold the entire world's waste.

The true answer though is breeder reactors and using 99% of the fuel, not 3%, and the waste being shorter-term byproducts as well.
I doubt it's directly associated with a certain type of device but rather a certain carrier or block of numbers associated with cheap devices (e.g., tracfones). Regardless of the mechanism, the effect is real.
China has not restricted access to Xinjiang. You can visit if you like. Most western visitors report that security is high in some areas, but foreigners are allowed to visit.
Just walking around won't necessarily tell you the whole story obviously, but the notion that you can't visit is false.

Strong disagree, at this point people have choosen sides and any attempt to influence people one way or the other will look either pathetic, at an absolute best, or hamfisted if you don't roll a natural 20.

And you really don't want more hamfisted attempts to educate people to your way of seeing the world unless you also want to repeat january 6th.

Few comments on this site have any real point. Yours is a perfect example. We're all just sharing our feelings and experiences here, to little productive end.
Nobody is entitled to a view or a property value. It’s not written down, it’s not codified, it’s not an entitlement. It’s a side effect of poor policy.

Natural as in naturally occurring. Coal is formed and burns in nature with no interaction from humans. Plutonium does not occur naturally in detectable quantities. It only does so through human action.
I can't upvote this enough.

Additionally, it doesn't make sense to have a one-size-fits-all approach to vaccination as though people who already got infected require vaccination.

I get Jonestown vibes from the public health establishment, since the policy position is absolute conformity. No exceptions!

Doesn't infection from the virus confer immunity to other proteins not found in the vaccine(which AFAIK only induces immunity against the spike protein)?
They are both very much required. Having poor math skills is likely to indicate poor abstraction skills, which in turn results in poor models. Having poor language skills will likely result in not being able to communicate those mental models, no matter how good they are.

You can be an amazing linguist, if you had to create hundreds of classes because you couldn't abstract something better, it will still be incredibly taxing. Whether it is more, less or equally taxing with an amazingly but shoddily named model, I don't know. I've seen extremes on both sides produce garbage I didn't want to step into, though I could make a case for overly mathematical people potentially covering a bridge in lack of linguistics by sticking to equations and models.
it's not, everyone can see that the current situation in brazil is far worse then in sweden. Sweden didn't had 200m people the last time I checked
It’s not an argument, just an observation that you can’t eat Tesla shares.

You seem to be replying as though I’m saying he’s not wealthy? Obviously he’s extremely wealthy by any definition. But most ultra-wealthy people are a LOT more diversified in their portfolio than Musk is. Someone with a diverse portfolio stands more chance of being able to functionally realise their wealth—if, say, they wanted to donate a large chunk of it to some charitable cause.

An argument could be made that Buffet is far and away the richest person (in terms of realisable wealth) due to his highly diverse holdings.
Happened to a friend of mine. He'd posted an article on a website devoted to a specific form of fluid dynamics discussion. This was a site with less than 50 active users.

Someone submitted the article (edited to sound more academic) to a journal - and with extra authors added. The journal almost published it, but they didn't because at the last minute one of their reviewers felt they recognized the content as having been published before.

I think the moral of the story is that some people are up to no good and we'll never understand why.
Wait, wait, wait. I was going to point out llvm/clang, but they disabled that too?

I assert verbal self-narrative is not necessary for free will. You assert otherwise? Why?

> can you prove it? :)

In principle, sure: Watch them demonstrate a learned skill. I have no reason to believe the videos are faked, but if they are, in principle I could observe IRL.

> And how do you know it won't end up like the Libet experiment?

The experiment which showed a human brain reaches a decision before conscious awareness of that decision? It’s evidence that humans don’t have free will, FSVO “free will”, so I’m expecting the same result, including the meta-result of people arguing about the result.

> They don't have history books though, and schools and teachers

> DNA does not help much if the knowledge dies with its creator

True for most of humanity, except for “teachers”, but cows can mentor each other too. So… we agree humans and non human animals pass and fail the same tests?

> because to forecast the consequences of every action you need to be able to judge the consequences

You can do that with any positive-negative reinforcement mechanism, doesn’t need morality etc.

Indeed it would be interesting to allow users to double-click a Hubstore executable. I'll probably find a way to implement it before the stable 1.0 release.

Here* is a link to a quantitative assessment of milk consumption around the world.

There is even a handy map.

Interestingly, they note that milk consumption is higher amongst older people. Possibly due to the crazy amount of milk propaganda historically.

No country in their right mind will ever directly attack the US. Your children would be safe and would not give rat's ass about some country (is that a country?) far away. I am curious how many US kids are even aware about its existence and status.

What the US might loose is the ability to tell everyone how high they should jump. Well the US will still be very rich and advanced country and not gonna go hungry. They might even still be a world leader if instead of playing god in middle east and other places they would concentrate on something productive.
On one hand, this type of service merely solves business intent with unfriendly or un-automatable interfaces. Why should this exist and be so successful? On the other, I guess it's like Segment or Tray.io, gluing together various services to improve business outcomes, and taking their slice of the efficiency improvements they make possible. I guess the most commonly integrated services should wake up and see the potential revenue they're losing in having crumby interfaces, and in the meantime UIPath will provide a good path for efficient IT services. Fair play to them in executing so well in this space.

Who gets to decided who this "trusted entity" is?

For example, I don't want anyone to know my real name. I'm not up to any mischief (criminal or otherwise), I just want the separation of identities. There isn't a single entity on Earth that I'd feel safe delegating this knowledge with if I could avoid it.

SCSI uses simple fixed command sets, the same as standard NVMe drives. As far as I'm aware, SCSI doesn't have any way to chain commands together, so you can't really do anything more complex than predefined commands like copy or compare and write. It's nothing at all analogous to an actual programmable offload engine like you'd get with eBPF, and all the semi-advanced SCSI commands that are actually applicable to SSDs already have equivalents in the base NVMe command set.
That can't happen. When a tool like this gets complicated enough to fully specify a complex problem it becomes unusable by the semi-technical people it was made for. Best Figma knows their strength and stays with it, leaving the extensions to other companies so as to compartmentalize the difficulty.

Developers aren't just people who know a programming language, they're people who can examine a problem in detail. If a designer was capable of this they'd be a dev who designed and they probably wouldn't use a GUI web design tool.
This argument makes zero sense. If we didn't breed cows, they wouldn't exist. There are no wild cows.

I consider it kind of important that the notation for expressions like “A²” doesn’t depend on whether A is an integer, real number, complex number, matrix, random variable, etc., (even if the results do) or what the specific domain is, but if you feel like it’s important to embed all of that context in the exponent operator... give it a try :)

(And whether “2” is integer, real, rational, complex, etc)
UiPath vs. Automation Anywhere was a hotly contested debate amongst the growth investor set for the last 3-5 years but the massive distance UiPath has put between it and AA in the last 12-15 months is remarkable.

Dubious on the very long-term value of the company as SaaS providers continue to eat away at some of its core use cases in banking / financial services, and both large RPA vendors have had some disastrous deployments outside of their core industries but there's so much value in replacing massive BPO spend in financial and professional services oriented enterprises. This one's a winner in the near to mid-term at the very least.

AFAIK the xml-ast was always just intended as a debugging tool for llvm developers, not an API for externals (and thus came with no stability promise). You always were supposed to just link against clang/llvm and use the APIs it specifically provides to access the AST.
Infocom's text adventures have a similarly sophisticated text parser and are based on a far more flexible development language (ZIL) and virtual architecture (Z-Machine). The early games have the occasional randomly moving NPC (Example: The thief in Zork I) or time limit, and such elements are more fleshed out in later games, but there is never any potential for truly emergent gameplay as in The Hobbit.

Infocom games' size require disk drives, something rare in personal computers outside the US until the late 1980s. Megler, in Australia, in any case came from the mainframe world and had no exposure to microcomputers and thus microcomputer games other than Adventure. If she had played Infocom games before Melbourne House hired her, The Hobbit's parser would likely be similar but I doubt that the other unique elements would be present. Out of naivite and ignorance came greatness.

Separation of Duties is very, very much part of SOX regulation. While it may not explicitly say "One person can not both author a change, and push it to prod, with no one else involved", if that's allowed and pointed out to any auditor, you are going to fail the audit.

So, yes, you are technically correct (the best kind of correct!), but in any applicable sense, it is indeed a requirement. As I called out, there is loads of wiggle room on how to address it (technically you probably are in compliance if you just force PR approvals, but I'm not that familiar with the actual verbage, and am definitely not a lawyer), just that the risk aversion of most companies (and the intransigence of auditors) sees those who write the code (dev) and those who deploy the code (ops) being separated quite frequently in order to be SOX compliant.

From the article:

"The European Union holds PV module installers accountable for their electronic waste and requires solar producers to recycle, and Japan holds project developers and owners liable for waste disposal and requires payment into a decommissioning fund. However, there is a vacuum when it comes to U.S. federal leadership on solar recycling and treatment of end-of-life PV modules."

With a few exceptions, the US government has never required manufacturers to take full responsibility for recycling their products. This is a tragic mistake. Future generations will view this lack of accountability as a shameful state of affairs that has contributed greatly to the global environmental catastrophe.

That's maybe not the most comforting example – Alex Haley's Roots was both convicted of plagiarism and seemed to be very amateurishly researched, to put it mildly. At least it was called "fiction", although it was sold in non-fiction sections. And the central claim was presented as if true; "he claimed to have traced his family lineage back to Kunta Kinte, an African taken from the village of Juffure in what is now The Gambia". The wikipedia page is fascinating, e.g.

"Donald R. Wright, a historian of the West African slave trade, found that elders and griots in The Gambia could not provide detailed information on people living before the mid-19th century, but everyone had heard of Kunta Kinte. Haley had told his story to so many people, and his version of his family history had been assimilated into the oral traditions of The Gambia. Haley had created a case of circular reporting, in which people repeated his words back to him."

Reminds me of something I experienced on HN and Reddit, though my case was a far less significant level. There was a Reddit bot a few years ago (aptly named 'trappedinreddit') that would automatically post the previous top comment on reposts. I bet it was Reddit internal bots. That process is an order of magnitude faster on Reddit than control-v.
That's true to a degree; if someone were able to cripple half the world's economies just by disabling a cable then yes, that's a serious issue. On the other hand, if all the involved countries maintained backup power (i.e. gas or coal generation) that could be turned on in an emergency but otherwise unused, then the risks could be mitigated.

Backup generators would of course be expensive to build and maintain, but if they just sit idle 99% of the time maybe the cost would be acceptable. I assume a fossil fuel power plant that just sits idle could last a very long time.

for some reason I find it funny to imagine a terrorist pondering about his long term career plans and prospects.

the terrorist might find some operation ridiculous but does it anyway to make his resume better, that way he can get hired into the FAANGs of the terrorism sector.
Wow, your translation is enlightening... Thanks!

I find it hilarious that this phrase, of all things, has a Wikipedia article -- I guess that just illustrates how notably ridiculous it sounds outside of China. I wonder how much damage that disconnect has caused over the years.
