Both Dynamo DB and Cosmos DB offer effectively what you're asking for.

Limits are a risk that must be mitigated but they aren't arbitrary, they exist to avoid interference of one customer on to others. They protect the service which, to providers and reasonably so, is more important than any one customer.
It's not the Linux kernel as a whole that's at issue, it's an IBM driver within the kernel. If they wanted to work on some unrelated part of the kernel it doesn't sound like that'd be an issue.
Yep, definitely agree with this. Management is always testing out the waters, seeing how much they can push a worker to work. They want more units of productivity out of you for the price they're paying you. But we can fight back to some degree, simply by saying 'no' to things, but we gotta be careful. Saying no too often will land you in the no-promotion bucket when reviews come around, or can get you canned. But politics is politics, and we're all forced into playing it.

Although, when a group of workers decide to band together to fight back, that's a different story, and that's when things get interesting. :D

Anyone have suggestions for an iPod Shuffle-like player that isn't ridiculously expensive? No screen, just some simple hardware buttons that plays loaded music. That doesn't feel cheap or like it has malware preloaded on it? Should be simple, right? Right? (No, says my shopping experience...)

I don't think I've ever had a more satisfying music listening experience than my original iPod Shuffle, the white stick one which plugged in directly as a USB drive. The simplicity of the switch on the back that toggled between shuffle and non-shuffled modes was perfect. I could load up around 300 of my favorite songs (which, as a high schooler in the heady days of Kazaa and ilk, was about all I possessed), know exactly what I was going to get, and could play hunt-and-seek by toggling between my known playlist order and shuffle. And that was it! No screen getting constant notifications, no navigating through ever-changing hierarchies (looking at you, Music on iOS app), and I didn't even need to be OCD about album art at that point.

Ah, the glory days... :)
I see what you mean about the check, info, and cross icons (which should be. But overall I have to say it is an improvement. The new icons are much more clearly designed around a dominant color and shape, which, incidentally, is what makes recognizing them a lot easier.
>The motive behind the comment is hidden in its delivery.

This is exactly why there is blowback to the suggestion that GGP was not being nice enough. It comes across as a desire to obscure the motive of that comment.
On the other hand, somebody so uninformed on the fundamentals of half-duplex wifi that they would choose to use mesh network extenders everywhere all on the same channel, is a person that I would rate as highly unlikely to listen to a logically reasoned technical explanation.
There is an emotional truth here- to free yourself of your credential by recasting it as someone else's-

Yes, on one level that's fraud, and selling prestige fraud is a grift.

But inclusion and amplification rely on the same emotional operation of using one's platform and assets to jump start a story for others. So in the most generous telling there is some credit here for the intent.

But only some.

Whatever one thinks of Harvard, whatever one thinks of the prestige industrial complex, the actual proposal here is not a transaction any responsible person should participate in on either side. And if I were the issuer, if I were Harvard, I would revoke this credential.

And then we would see the true weight of this prestige proof in the eyes of its former holder.
So... what about jamming back? The 2.4GHz spectrum is pretty much unusable anyways.
Yeah, I don't think I'd know if I were doing this. I really don't think I am, but default settings and shitty proprietary IoT devices make me unsure...
Oh yeah, true true. You'll want to avoid using any company time, equipment (including the network), code, etc. and that should cover you, i think, but only so long as your work doesn't "compete" with your employers iirc.
We're talking about different things here.

You're talking about non-Singaporean migrant workers, who are poor but not "destitute", since they have paid jobs, food and shelter.

I'm talking about the poorest Singaporeans, often unemployed and/or elderly who are entitled to meager but survivable benefits, including cash handouts and heavily subsidized housing. It's not an enviable life, and SG could and should do better, but neither is it "destitution" on the scale of street beggars in (say) India or Indonesia.

There's still no way around having to learn complex features. For most software, building a really simple first try is very easy, but almost certainly useless.

Once you need to actually do something useful, uunavoidable complexity sets in and all of a sudden defaults and such don't really help anymore.

Some people try to push defaults further with templates and wizards, but that often still doesn't really work for your particular use case, and also makes you first search through many options before realizing you actually need to go for the scary blank one.
To quote the quote given in the commit:
"As an IBM employee, you are not allowed to use your gmail account to work in any way on VNIC. You are not allowed to use your personal email account as a "hobby". You are an IBM employee 100% of the time. Please remove yourself completely from the maintainers file. I grant you a 1 time exception on contributions to VNIC to make this change."

Your interpretation is not obvious to me at all. To me that reads that the person was using is private address to work on the kernel as a hobby and IBM objected because he is considered to 100% at IBM. My interpretation of this is of the typical corporate overreach were they claim everything you do is theirs.
Visual Studio's UI is written in WPF and there's native support for pixel-pitting vector graphics, exactly for the purpose of icons and other things that, while vector, must be aligned to device pixels. I think I remember seeing that at least the old icons definitely made use of that (you can download the whole icon packs for VS2012–2019 somewhere on the Microsoft site). And I think you should also be able to do LOD; it's possible with SVG with media queries; you should be able to do this with XAML at the very least via injecting size information via a data context.
And you can do this by trading back and forth just 1 share. From the valuation of that one share we extrapolate the market cap. Isn't this amazing?
This name is somewhat misleading as the Rust compiler itself has worked on windows for quite some time.

What is being released (as preview) is a "windows crate" which [sic] lets you call any Windows API past, present, and future using code generated on the fly directly from the metadata describing the API and right into your Rust package where you can call them as if they were just another Rust module.
There are a lot of good quotes along these lines. My favorites:

"I never let my schooling get in the way of my education." (Mark Twain)

"Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn." (Ben Franklin)

Most of these people seem to be concerned about some sort of pedagogy rather than school in general, though. They largely dislike the way that schools treat students as fungible cogs.

Formal education is more valuable the more that students are involved in the teaching process. Lockhart's Lament is a classic piece on that topic.

While I enjoy a good nitpicking as much as the next guy, when talking about rank ordering, the use of average to denote median is valid.

Median and mean only diverge when there's a long-tail scalar that skews the mean away from the median. Since rank ordering gives every individual the same weighting with no scalars, "average" is accurate enough, if somewhat colloquial.
1. It sounds like you're effectively making your own stock exchange, but with crypto instead of cash. I imagine the SEC will have many things to say about that. It could be legal, but you're not going to like the laws they'll make you follow.

2. In a real stock exchange, the company value is largely the volatile thing. In one backed with crypto, the price of a company will fluctuate more from the asset you're buying it with than the company's activity itself. If the price of bitcoin goes up, I own the same number of shares but worth fewer bitcoins. That seems like not what folks into crypto care about.

3. If a company puts all of its shares into this, it likely cannot ever ipo. That's going to turn off most investors. I would expect it's an all-in endeavor.

4. Companies accidentally losing their private key for unissued shares sounds like a very bad failure mode.

"with bit-perfect audio quality." - isn't that what VLC does?"

Let's assume your audio files all have one of two sample rates:

- 44.1 kHz

- 48 kHz

When you play one of these audio files in VLC, will it:

A) Force the DAC to operate at the same sample rate as the file, or

B) Check the frequency at which the DAC is already operating and (if necessary) resample the stream before sending it to the DAC?

If the latter, then you won't get bit-perfect audio quality.
Virtualization, no. A hypervisor running a Windows kernel and a Linux kernel side by side is not about capability-based security. You can even see it like cap-based security approach: VMs only see what the hypervisor gave them, and have no way to refer to anything that the hypervisor did not pass to them.

Containers, yes. They are a pure namespacing trick, and can be replaces by cap-based security completely.

What you call an RJ45 is an 8p8c. (You can guess this one.)
It's all in how you start the knot and how you do the swoop. Learning to do the swoop differently is hard. Much easier to retrain yourself in doing the correct start. I've taught several adults how to tie their shoes.

Instead of doing Left-Over-Right, Do Right-Over-Left (or vice versa if you do your swoop differently than me).

I personally do not like the "Ian Knot". It requires you to take both hands off from the first cross, which results in looser laces.

__________

For those that want security without struggling to remove a double knot, this is the method I learned in the military:

Tie a simple not at the end of each lace just above the straight plastic piece. These simple knots never get untied.

Tie your boots with whatever method you normally use.

Pull the loops as big as they will become, the small knots at the end of the laces will stop at the center knot.

(Optional) Tuck your longer than normal loops into your boot so you don't look like an idiot. This gives a clean look in all footware, not just boots.

The laces will likely never come undone, and you won't have to struggle to remove a double knot.

Ehh, isn't MAC nearly the opposite of capability based security though? At the core of capability based security is that you don't separate authority to access a resource from your designation of that resource. MAC though seems to go all-in on separate policies to control what gets access to what.

There's a difference between ending up winning (I did my thing and others liked what I did) and searching for a win (I need to get ahead / win), which leads to most likely not being true to your nature.

For example Linus wanted to make an operating system, he didn't want to win (I would think), but ended up "winning". But if you want to be like Linus, you'll probably get lost.

That does make more sense. IBM probably has a dedicated team of engineers working on that driver, and they also have the power to keep unrelated employees from working on it, and so they will do so (in order to keep the driver's development going through the official chain of command, and not having to loop in some random employee in another group).

I still use my 6th gen ipod nano basically every day. They are more expensive refurbished now than a new one cost at launch. It's practically weightless, clips on to the collar of my shirt, and has an okay UI. It also syncs with iTunes, which none of these other ones would do, which is essential for podcasts and loading new music. Only thing that would make it better are more hardware buttons for pause, UI could be improved a bit, and bluetooth would be cool.

You can test in production by moving fast and breaking things (the clueless guy).

You can test in production by having canaries, filters, etc, and allowing some production traffic to the version under test. This is the "wired" guy.

For many backend things, you can test in production by shadowing the current services, and copying the traffic into your services under test. It has limitations, but can produce zero disruption.

in practical use it's really not necessary, since a lot of those apartments are small enough in square footage to be well covered by one $80 5.x GHz capable 2x2 or 3x3 802.11ac AP. You can still get 400-700Mbps speeds through a 5 GHz channel, such as around 5150MHz, on any dual band equipment. Although 5 GHz goes through wood framed walls/floors a tiny bit, it doesn't go very far, to the point where you might see your neighbor's 5 GHz AP at a signal of -87.

That's not quite right. If IBM is listed as maintainers for this driver, then any patches would necessarily go through them to end up in the mainline tree. And they could decide to reject patches from the person in question.

Although if this happened and legitimate code was rejected by IBM, what could happen is a community backlash against IBM as a maintainer and the code could enter that way.
FiiO M3K review – a pocketable-high quality audio player (2018)
(Disclaimer: I work on Google Cloud Functions)

With Google Cloud Functions, you can run your function locally using the Function Framework libraries (available in all Cloud Function languages) [0]. These libraries are used in production Cloud Functions, so you're not emulating the runtime. The feedback loop / devX is pretty simple with just 1 command to run the function locally like a library for every language.

We have some guides on local development here [1]. Our samples have system tests that use the FF.

You also can bundle your function in a container after building it with `pack build` [2]. This provides an exact container environment with things like environment variables and system packages.

We're working on improving eventing devX, but we have some `curl` examples here [3]. Connecting multiple functions together eloquently is still something to be desired though.

My reply to another similar comment:

I think there must be some misunderstanding.

My point is that everyone will have to deal with not being the best. For the vast majority of people being the best at anything is out of the question, regardless of effort or focus. Even if you are one of the lucky few who can be "the best", it'll only be for a moment in time. All of us age and our capacities fade. Then you're left dealing with the additional burden of having once kissed the sky and now being earthbound like the rest of us.

The whole point of the philosophy is finding something else to focus on other than the (true but depressing) objective rank-ordering of you among your peers. Leaderboards are useless to all but a chosen few.

However, everyone (even the ones that will place on the top of the leaderboards) can benefit from taking their focus off the leaderboard and putting it on their own process and effort (in some sense replacing the comparison to others with a comparison to their yester-selves).
I remember that. They justified it by pointing to a similar all caps navigation bar on MSDN, as if that trumped some 25+ years of precedence for workstation apps. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
And that doesn’t even touch on the new year-round fire season normal we have to contend with. Last year was crazy and this year is supposed to be as bad or worse. Every 3rd or 4th pine tree in the hills is beetle kill.

I have fallen in love with Adventure Time. Not only is it something my son and I can watch together, but tells real coming of age stories that are relevant to both kids and adults.

Adventure Time is deeply empathetic to the human condition. To communicate this connection it rewrites all the rules about how the world works and forces you to navigate them with no explaination.

To a child this is taken as a mater of course, to them that is how the real wold works. Children have to discover the world on their own and learn to navigate it, hopefully with the guidance of parents, family and teachers.

Most lessons are hard won and come only through experience. As the story progresses you see the characters in Adventure Time strugle to learn these lessons, sometimes succeeding sometimes failing.

As an adult this show opens me up to all these lessons again and gives me a chance to reevaluate my experiences as well as consider those my son is or will go through and how I cam be there for him.
No problem :) It can actually be pretty useful sometimes, even though I have it disabled right now. You can also use it as a "spree breaker" by setting the values to something very low, like 60 visit/20 away.
Oh, we for sure had 8 bit microcontroller chips in 1989. A quick look back through old editions of Radio Electronics looks like you could buy an 8039[0] in 1989 for $1.95 qty 1. PICs were pretty nice back then too.

[0] - An 8039 is a version of the 8048 that was in the original PC keyboard, but rigged up with an external EEPROM for program code instead of the normal mask ROM. They were probably secretly 8048s that were programmed with some other customer's code in the mask ROM, but then fused off for whatever reason.
Interesting, thanks for sharing.

I'm assuming the Kindle is using an i.MX6 or better NXP SOC, because they are basically the only ones shipping an integrated EPD controller with Linux drivers, which should be more than capable of parsing and rendering HTML.
