Indeed, that's actually an awesome feature because guarantees the container will work as it was running upon a restart.

Problem is when you have an environment variable you want to change for some reason without triggering a redeployment/release/whatever, with a configuration file in a volume you can change it and restart (of course this breaks the premise of "restart keeps full state", but I can live with file modifications, with docker at least you can keep them at least "triggered externally"). With an environment variable the only option I have found is stopping docker, digging into the container configuration, changing said variable and starting docker again (lovingly called "Indy swap" when we've had to do it, luckily it's less than once a year).

This sort of argument is routinely used to dismiss the laws of thermodynamics as merely 'theories' and to then move on to the most outrageous violations of known physical law.

We are pretty sure of what we are sure of and we are pretty sure of what we aren't sure of, impressions notwithstanding. Science is a method, not a set of facts, and it has a built in mechanism to allow greater insights to replace lesser ones. As long as we stick to science we'll one day find the limits of what is knowable.
Some small amount is expected. For example, if it happens across samples, disliking and then changing it to a like would be counted. Or, like you suggest, if it's clear that it was done by a bot, it could be OK for Google to remove it, and it wouldn't be meaningful. But could that ever explain 95% of the downvotes being hidden?
Thank you for more eloquently expressing a sentiment that I have harboured for some time. After quoting the relevant Cave Johnson quote from PORTAL 2 so many times... it clicked and I came to the realisation that there is only one way to “do science” you “throw it at the wall and see if it sticks”.

At a fundamental level, you must throw your results at the wall of publication and see if they stick, the only way science sticks is when it can be replicated by others. It remain on the wall!

When people’s refutation of things like the em-drive is simply “this can’t work” my response is “prove it” not because I believe, but because “can’t work” just isn’t science, science is done by proving that something “does not work”. That means for something like the em-Drive you prove it doesn’t do what it claims, you prove it by replication and better measurement... and you learn how to build things better, learn how to measure better and that’s the value of these efforts! Or you prove it by detailed non destructive analysis of the experiment apparatus and prove your work by detailed physical simulation, publishing your code to prove you didn’t make any mistakes yourself! You cannot just give the answer you must show your work if you expect to go around calling what you do “science”. Providing such proof is not a waste, or bad science, it is the very essence of science itself.

I will humbly raise my hand and admit to this.

As someone who has so far really enjoyed the lifestyle benefits of WFH but has struggled with this, what advice/tips/strategies/recommendations can you or other senior remote engineers provide on how to improve this specific aspect?
This ignores the fact that train lines crossing multiple sovereign countries and their respective borders is more complicated to negotiate. If you're a country with access to the sea, you need to build a port, and ships, and you have access to global trade.

In other words, most countries can cut out dozens of middlemen.

For a bit of context: a brand called DAF ("van Doornes Automobiel Fabriek") came up with a very clever drive system, called variomatic. It is still in use today under CVVT in Honda vehicles. DAF had an unfair reputation as a 'womans car' because you didn't have to shift gears at all, nor was there a finicky automatic gearbox to maintain, just two pulleys and a belt for each rear wheel. Which gave it insane acceleration as well because the torque convertor gave maximum torque at the lowest speeds ramping down the torque gradually and continuously as speed increased.

One peculiar aspect of this drive system is that it allows your car to go as fast in reverse as it does forward! Of course the Dutch could not let this go without setting up a race around that theme, which was wildly popular in the past.

Since dafjes have an 'unfair advantage' you also got a secondary class, with other car brands, this is a video of that race.

Here are the DAFs:

That video really hurts to look at by the way, the casual destruction of such a large number of what would be very special classics today is grating, especially that pretty 55 coupe is one that I'd love to keep around.

> I'm surprised by the implication that the authors think European politics is US politics expressed using a different idiom.

I think they meant another dimension than you. I've looked into the underlying value systems in the US and Germany as part of my phd, and the underlying moral frameworks are essentially identical: there are two basic ideas of how a society should look like (the progressive and the conservative idea), and what each idea consists of is almost identical (modulo country-specific weights).

* criminal justice: redemption vs. retribution

* social safety: more of it, and collectively organized vs. less of it, and individually organized

* abortion/women's rights: pro women vs. contra abortion

* environmental protection: important vs. unimportant

* education: focus on equal opportunities for all vs. focus on elite institutions

and so on.

The actual parties differ of course, and the overton window of "mainstream" political views certainly do. But the underlying moral dualism has the same two poles.

> But that’s fairly consistent right? An old platform not getting updates and a new platform getting updates?

I'm not sure what you mean with "consistent", but the problem is of course creating two incompatible platforms in the first place. All previous releases of .net have been largely backwards compatible (except for rare edge cases and security issues), so it remained a single platform where you could get the latest improvement just by upgrading the framework.

Of course when you have created two incompatible platforms, it would be double the work to keep both updated, so they have to abandon one. Which is why they shouldn't have done it in the first place. They could have upgraded and deprecated components in a modular manner without creating a whole separate incompatible platform.

On the other hand, this is the sort of attitude that would make an informed skeptic reject the theoretical possibility for nuclear power, two weeks before the first nuclear bombs were used in war.

It took a team of physicists four years to disprove this result. Did they do it just to prove a point, or because they didn't understand the car analogy? No, professional scientists are rarely that callous with their time.

There was a slim possibility that our understanding of physics was wrong, and now we know for sure that this was not an instance of that.

But everything that's really interesting happens at the edges. No groundbreaking scientific result, ever, has happened by rejecting out of hand unlikely observations that violate established theory.
They shill their product on fake accounts all the time. At least they're not shilling any politics, because that's what they usually do publicly on their real brand accounts. I don't know if it should be illegal, but the public should be definitely more aware of it, as companies are not the only ones doing it and they're frankly the least of my concerns when it comes to this.

> you can choose your friends, your colleagues not so much

I did choose them, luckily I got to audition them from around 300 people I've been forced to interact with through over my career during the past 10 years. Not only do I get to know their characters well because I can decide if I like them or not and find out if they're trustworthy through working together I also get the extra benefit of being recommended for jobs through them.

How on earth am I supposed to do that though clubs? Presumably you mean sports clubs because no sure much else than that exists for adults, what if I want to make friends with people who are not interested in sports?

> 3. Really bad work-life balance in general. When busy and everyone's WFH, boundary between work and life really got blurred. There's nothing like "gotta go, chat tomorrow" stuff.

You can only blame yourself for that. When I'm done working for the day, I log out, lock my screen and walk out of the room. And if the time to go happens in the middle of a chat, then so be it. My boss can tell me he's gotta go, and I can tell him I've gotta go, and that's exactly what we do. There is no blurring of work and life because I don't blur them.

I can kinda see the value of getting a million PS3 cpus for in your new drone swarm or industry controllers. But how is gathering generic decades old hardware going to help? For Computation as a service its not that valuable or easy to install. And for reuse in 'new' devices it's even more questionable. All this stuff barely just works in this specific configuration.

I don't think belt and road is a viable replacement for a container ship.

The largest cargo ships can carry 24k containers at a cheaper rate... With 6 meter for a 20 feet container, that would be a train with 144 km. cargo. I wouldn't want to wait with my car at that intersection...

Emergency cargo is transported with planes.

Well there is a difference in artists that produce a few good songs and then fill the rest of the album with other tracks, and artists that make an entire album be a journey of audio. There's also a lot of albums which are shorter than the full CD size, and a lot which max out the CD length.

I think like all art having limitations actually enhances creativity, since it makes the artist cut things out and decide what is truly important.

So realistically it can vary on the artist and they should probably customise their delivery based on a particular format. Singles/streaming for individual tracks, vinyl for something slightly longer, CDs for longer, and then maybe USB stick holding a really long flac file for those epic progressive sessions.
... implemented in Rust!!! Having skimmed through quite a few Rust projects on Github lately I am overwhelmed by the amount of code in them. I feel lost looking at any random file, it's too OOP-y for me, I can't really see what it's doing.

I start to feel a little insecure about my own abilities, I've mostly focused on building small components or little systems from the ground (in C) up with minimal or no libraries. That works and is rewarding, until the project becomes unmanageable because of some aspect that I'd done poorly, and I start a new project that focuses on exploring the particular kind of subsystem that I didn't know how to do properly.

It also seems like the following is a pattern. I checked out that intimidating Rust project using git. It's something like 50MB to download. Then I run "cargo build". I wait 5-10 minutes and it is still "fetching". At some point, it goes on to compile 550 (!) transitive dependencies. A little while later, the build failed, could not compile libc, unicode-xid, cfg-if, proc-macro2. Not sure, maybe I have the wrong version of "cargo" installed?

I get back to my small current hobby project, which is somehow more rewarding to me since I can still check it out on a fresh Linux or Windows box, run "build.sh" and run it. That whole process can complete in 20 seconds.

Am I too stubborn? Or should a terminal emulator really be not such a massive project? (No offense meant).
I thought it would be about the Magic: the Gathering set.
I too am in the same boat. I do not have people skills, I am shy and introverted. I am considered as a non lead material since my manager thinks that I am very soft spoken and so I am told I need to be aggressive. I don't even know what the solution is.

- I am trying to get into competitive programming which I discovered recently and my aim for 2021 is to at least solve one codeforces round
- I started enjoying Flutter and I also did 30 days of live streaming on youtube (Just screenshare with music).
- I have a mobile app idea that I plan to work in coming days.

One word: Financialization.

The 70s started the trend of financializing (is that the word?) everything, that meant that at every step of every productive process someone packaged it into a tradable "paper", which got packaged with other paper from other productive processes and then re-sold and repackaged again and again to the market as proxies of the value from those productive processes.

Holding paper assets turned out to be much more lucrative than the actual production for most companies, not to mention far far easier than competing in the market with products and innovation, so naturally it slowly began to chip away at the quality of the production in favor of holding paper that represented production. Outsourcing became possible and they noticed it didn't matter to the ones buying the paper assets who actually did the work, so it skyrocketed.

Financialization required an immeasurable amount of debt, they began extending credit to anyone so they could buy said paper, and then turned around and made the debt itself financial paper.

That got us the stock market booms of the 80s, the 90s, the dot com, the financial crisis, and of course their busts.

Now we are at the end, and the signal? companies are adding bitcoin to their balance sheets. The cycle of finacialization is complete, paper is no longer required and you don't even have to outsource your production, not that you have it anyways, as all you need to post profits and pretend you are a good CEO is buy crypto and hodl.

Production for a 'modern' business is rapidly becoming a thing of the past. Governments can try to buy their way into any market but it is useless; most businesses have no real capacity to compete delivering cutting edge products with actual real "bare-metal" profitable businesses because they can only make profits "on paper".

(sorry if finacialization is not how it's written)
Don't quite understand your question. I had assumed that you wanted to understand about various computation models as encompassed by the various categories of languages i.e. imperative/object-oriented/functional/logic/concurrent/etc. The above mentioned books cover that with the principles being transferable to any language you might choose to focus on.

First, I like that you want to improve the social media situation! What I did not understand from your slides: Who sees which content? Is it still a follower system?

I think they lost it with Perl 6. Perl 6 was a bit late, but it could have been a better rejuvenation for Perl than Python 3 was for Python.

Instead it took way too long, had confusing naming with the various implementations and frankly some features that are not very useful for anyone but linguists.
I mean, why would you want to redefine your language from within the language? To confuse your co-workers? To win the obfuscated perl contest?

Perl 6 also has some real innovation like its new regular expressions. I'm afraid they will never get widely adopted.

FWIW i never had a problem with nested data structures in perl. I found the perl documentation ("perldoc perldata") to be fantastic.
Fair point,

But GP argued that our current system was maintaining a status quo where people in poor countries make little pay.

And that effective altruism was like throwing money away.

While fact is that extreme poverty and poverty in general is declining globally.

You can argue that effective altruism has marginal impact on the macro economic trends that drives people out of poverty.

And therefore the impact of donations is unimportant, because the decline in poverty is driven by strong economic forces.

Arguable donations probably help!
