iCloud Drive is not a "virtual folder" (I think you mean "shell folder"? Like the one that you see when you navigate up from / in the Finder?) iCloud Drive is a real place in your home directory (it is located at ~/Library/Mobile Documents/). It's equivalent to the root of any other synced-directory service — Dropbox, Google Drive, etc. Your Documents and Desktop folders — when iCloud Drive sync for them is enabled — are just regular folders inside that synced folder.

The hacky part is the fact that, while the Documents and Desktop folders are canonically nested inside the Mobile Documents folder, they're also linked from outside of it with weird pseudo-symlinks.

Those pseudo-symlinks are more than just symlinks — they appear as real directories (like Linux bind-mounts), which is helpful to avoid breaking legacy apps that expect to be able to find real directories at ~/Desktop and ~/Documents.

But, like a symlink, the "real" directory these pseudo-symlinks point to only exists in one place, and that place is ~/Library/Mobile Documents/. Presuming `readlink(2)` was called to resolve the file at any point, you can't navigate back "up" from the resulting file, to find yourself back at the directory that contained the symlink. Once you resolve the link, the symlink isn't part of the resulting path any more.

I worry about the echo chambers people are subjecting themselves to when something with applicability as general as a commenting widget requires a GitHub account to sign in. That's narrowing it down to a subset of a subset of one's audience.
> A popular way to do it wrong is to use summary statistics that regularly emit a quantile, for example don't collect the p90 from every server every minute. That discards far too much information. Instead, collect the CDF of service times. CDFs can be combined in a lossless way, and they carry their own denominators. Basically if you are using the typical Prometheus setup, you should be getting the right data.

And choose the right quantization for histograms/cdfs.

> To go to the next level I would suggest also emitting the sum and sum of squares, which will make your summary statistic far more useful.

Histograms should also give you the sum. I haven't seen sum of squares in many monitoring setups; is this for underlying metrics that are differences/errors?
That's interesting. util.promisify normally only works with functions where the callback is the final argument, which isn't the case with setTimeout. I didn't know you could customize promisify behaviour, but looking at the docs apparently you can just by setting a property on the object using the util.promisify.custom symbol [1]. That is what setTimeout is doing, which is why that code works.

Use an agency to create the marketing site, let them worry about design, config, SEO etc. Obviously your company & team would be setting the requirements, needs, design goals etc, but hire an agency to deal with building that out.

My 2 cents, use wordpress, hire an agency and have them set it up so your team can add the technical articles, posts etc as needed but get the crux of it done using an outside resources that specialize in doing that kind of work.

Most good agencies also have copy writers and some even have tech writers as well. You can setup topics, give them specific goals for each article to write that then you just wordsmith, but the initial time consuming part is done for you. There are agencies that specialize in almost every industry, just look for one. And if not this is where your team can step in to help craft the articles/content themselves but not have to worry about the design & dev of the site.
That's pretty much the same as AGPL. A tell about OSI's biases is that AGPL and SSPL are basically the same but since Amazon's propaganda engine ramped up against SSPL it was labeled as somehow completely out of bounds.

Simpler explanation than some nefarious plan. Software engineers love to play with the coolest new thing over working with some proven solution that might have worked well enough. I think these corporation just exploit that with cloud offering. They don't really get to pick what people like (they try but suck at it) but have the money and resources to exploit whatever ends up being the popular new thing anyway.

It sounds odd to me since Venus has a surface pressure of 93 bar and a surface gravity of 0.904 g. My guess that a lot of other factors are at play (like the magnetic fields) that are more relevant than gravity. (My understanding of atmospheres is also very basic)

We do for for managing stuff with many $1... zeros for serious top fortune companies in business critical projects. Java/Go type systems are primitive compared to typescript. Shallow or no dependencies, functional, ocaml like modules, pervasive use of algebraic types provided by ts (previously flow), several years in production, nice codebase, several successful, non-trivial major releases, constant updates with codebase worked on every day by many people, several deployments per month.

Problems I personally have with it:

1. no exact object types in ts as in flow - means they have to be emulated by destructing, sad, but you can live with it/you have to be careful

2. transpile times - but recent experiments with swc for tranpilation and deferring typecheck to run concurrently while tests are kicked off after swc finishes look promising

3. type system could be a bit smarter in few places, but no blockers so far

I'd recommend but with caution - spectrum of developer's competency is closer to php (almost anybody can do it) than the one of languages like ocaml/haskell/rust and others (where entry bar is higher). Vet your dependencies, hire competent developers and it can work very well.

Some of libraries we're using:

- https://github.com/appliedblockchain/assert-combinators - light, runtime type assertions ("parse, don't validate" style to avoid illusion of type safety at io boundaries)

- https://github.com/appliedblockchain/tsql - functional, tagged template based combinators for sql generation
You can indeed switch between sound output devices, but on iMac "headphones" and "internal speakers" are the same device, so switching is only available if you have something else, like USB speakers or an AirPlay device.

If you click the sound button on the menu bar to open the menu, it will have a headphones entry if headphones are plugged in, and an internal speakers entry if headphones are not plugged in.

As you plug in and unplug headphones, with the menu showing, that entry dynamically changes. (Same on the Sound panel in System Preferences).

This appears to be entirely a software decision on Apple's part, rather than some sort of electrical/mechanical design that forces the speakers to be disconnected when the headphones are inserted. In this discussion [1] on Ask Different people report that when they run Windows via Bootcamp, they can choose via software between headphones and internal speakers.

BTW, my iMac is a 2017 model. They might have changed this with later models.

Don't they realize this is just them broadcasting an insecurity? Nobody who is really XYZ goes around saying "hey everyone, I'm XYZ :D", it instantly reduces your cred.

Well to be fair the hospitals are the same people who have been complaining that they can't get enough qualified nursing staff for the past 15 or 20 years.
Oh nothing for now, and there's likely not going to be a viable alternative around for a while. But long-term, I don't see Grafana as part of the openly sharing ecosystem anymore, as with them being under the AGPL, but most other relevant OSS projects in the space being under permissive licenses, the whole idea of code sharing now goes out of the window (or rather, becomes one-way). I don't like the long-term implications of this for the ecosystem.

I mentioned code generation, you don't execute .obj files.
The first quote in the other comment is that guys synthesis of the paper (which didn't include 6 RCTs...), not a conclusion from the cited paper.
Men commit suicide at about 3-4x the rate of women (it's not quite as high for attempts, men are better at 'getting it done'), often related to occupational issues but nobody seems to think one bit about them. [1]

Education has by far one of the lowest suicide rates - of course, that's only one crude indirect measure of things. Jobs in education tend to be very stable, they are very highly regarded in the social sense (far more so than businessmen, politicians etc.) [2] In some places wages are not so good, but that's not always the case. Nurses are reasonably well comped but it's also impossible to quantify for some stress factors.

Doctor's suicide rates are effectively the highest of any profession (note that for Healthcare as an 'industry' the numbers are lower, but for Doctor specifically, it's high, i.e. most of the industry are not dealing directly with trauma, death).

Overall - I think COVID is obvious a giant bank of stress and generational PTSD and it's surprising how well the workers are taking it.

Doctors and Nurses are some of the most professional and conscientious people out there, the least likely to complain i.e. and occupational sense of duty that transcends 'compensation'.

COVID is a kind of war for them, it's just grinding them down.

Maybe I want to keep my software under a permissive license? AGPL would also infect my code, no? And what if we're talking about proprietary code that doesn't have much to do with Grafana and only uses it for monitoring?

I think you misunderstand the ZFS-on-Linux situation. The problem with that is that ZFS is licensed under the CDDL, and Linux is licensed under the GPL, both of which are FOSS licenses, but there's no legal way to combine them. In your situation, it sounds like there is a legal way to combine them, and you just don't like the license that it would require you to release your code under.

As a 29 year old, similar (to a lesser extent) deal. I've used Discord a huge amount over the past year, mostly for gaming but sometimes while playing different games at the same time/just hanging out.
Most non-technical people don't share the same definition of obsolete. I know a few people who have gone more than 10 years between hardware purchases using Apple computers.
That's kind of the point. The purpose of MIT/BSD is to enable nonfree derivative works; the purpose of the AGPL is to only allow free derivatives. AGPL maximizes freedom by prohibiting further restriction of it; it's a local maxima of "user freedom" as a function of "developer freedom".

If you want to use AGPL software in your project, you're free to relicense under AGPL.

Do you need to release as GPL the code of a program runnning on GNU/Linux? The answer is no. The same applies to software interacting with AGPL Postgres using the postgre protocol. If you are AWS and gives access to customers to modified versions of AGPL Postgresql you AWS must release your patches over Postgresql. IANAL and all that jazz, also I'm not that sure about the typical cloud vendor secret sauce that controls automation etc. Most of it it's probably external enough and not covered by AGPL but there might be some exceptions.

I recently did an interview on this topic [1] and I was surprised to hear the designer say, "If the developer tells me to design whatever and they'll build it, that is a huge fail". I kinda assumed designers were in their own world where we (developers) met at the DMZ, but his point is we are all part of the same team. The more I thought about it, the more sense it made.

You're probably right.

Can give some practical advice or pointers about how to become interested in something? What do you practically mean by "engage"?

Second point: even though something is "only" in your head, it doesn't necessarily mean it's easy to change.

The question then becomes not whether it's possible to become interested in something, but whether it's worthwhile to put your time and energy into doing so as opposed to doing something you find interesting from the start.
Okay, but under your assumptions they would reduce carbon concentration by >100 PPM after just 30 years, which actually sounds pretty good.
What a bizarre, two faced world we live in. On one level, the fact that an organization exists to give a "freedom of expression" award is peculiar in-and-of-itself. But that same organization which claims to champion freedom of expression doesn't actually do anything to advance the cause of free speech on platforms. In fact, it is awarding a CEO of a platform that expressly forbids the discussion of anything related to possible fraud or lack of integrity in the 2020 election. You can't even talk about it. So on the one hand, they believe YouTube "protect freedoms “in all possible ways” while also "noted that there must be certain limits". How can a contradiction be so blatant?

Ultimately, what is the point of this? Is it some kind of Potemkin award meant to normalize censorship as free expression? Is it some silly thing apologists of YouTube can point to when YouTube is criticized as restricting free speech?

Edit: Even if you despise the people who think the election was stolen, preventing those people from discussing it on your platform directly contradicts the principle of free expression.

I ended up using my iPad Pro 2018 as a third screen (via Airplay) below my 4k monitor. My MBP sits on the left. It‘s an excellent setup running iTerm on the iPad screen, calendar or email on the MBP screen and editor / IDE on the 4k display.

Other than that I use the iPad Pro for occasional couch surfing. iOS is just too limited to use the iPad Pro for pro use-cases.

Would love to have macOS on the iPad though. Sometimes I connect the iPad to my MBP via Airplay and do some coding on it (using macOS with a full keyboard / mouse) in another room, away from my desk.
That's not surprising to me. Discord offers free hosting for a feature-rich IRC and group voice service. Nobody else did that.

A gaming clan no longer needs to maintain their own Teamspeak/Ventrilo server + their own website and forum. The convenience of having it all in one centralized program wins out over Discord's UX oddities, privacy concerns and more recent bloat. This ease of use also lowered the barrier to create a clan, so it captures a larger audience than its predecessors ever did. And yet it still provides powerful tools for moderation and user permissions, an API for chat bots, video streaming...
If I type "3 + 6 + 9" as fast as I can, then hit "=", I only get 18 about half the time. Sometimes I get 12, sometimes 15, occasionally something else. This is with a iPhone 11 Pro on iOS 14.4.2. It's ridiculous. I always hear the same number of clicks, though.

Because they are not the ones in power. The solution is to unionize. Teacher's unions seems to be unsuccessful as a whole (as an outsider at least). Nurses union's seem to be relatively successful in certain regions (the bay area seems like a good region. nurses make quite a bit of money here).

Are you sure it isn't that you are sliding your finger enough for iOS to think you are doing a "scroll gesture" instead of a click?

I hate iOS because the movement limit before a tap gets cancelled is too small for my tastes - simulating "virtual" clicks at 10px limit of motion worked better for my tastes using a browser. Maybe I am just lazy, maybe the capacitance or shape of my fingers is the problem, or maybe I have some motor issue. However I don't on Android devices. I have to allow myself time on iOS devices to make taps work reliably.

I notice it especially on the home screen of my iPad where lazy tapping an app won't open it... Grrrr - there is no other function to a "slight" scroll on the homescreen!

I have seen others have the same issue, so it isn't just me.

Chia is pitched as a more environmentally friendly alternative to proof of work, but it’s unclear how much better it is. The energy consumption of proof of work is related only to the relationship between the price of performing the work and the price of the proof of work coin. Efficiency is a concept which is meaningless for proof of work.

The same dynamic will hold with Chia. If the price goes up, this will result in more money being spent on storage devices to mine it. These storage devices will not use as much electricity as hashing miners, but this means that the operators will have more money to spend buying more storage devices, which they will have to do if they want to keep up with the pack.

In summary: Bitcoin work is manufacturing and putting electricity into hashing chips. Chia work is manufacturing storage chips. It’s unclear whether $100 spent manufacturing a storage chip is less bad for the environment than $100 running a hashing chip.

I am very interested by ILP for some medical meta research, e.g. learning clinical guidelines (= care pathway for a particular condition) from papers on a topic. Do you think the current state of the art makes that possible? Would you be interested in such a thing (am european academic MD)?

I’m not sure about that. The average person uses the TV’s built in software and streaming features for the most part.

According to this analysis AppleTV is a pretty niche product especially given its price point.

I haven’t done the research, but I’m guessing Apple has. And my guess is that the market share using AirPods on iOS vastly outstrips those who use it on AppleTV.

Again I’m not saying that it wouldn’t be a nice feature; but I just wouldn’t say it’s baffling. Apple is a fairly smart company... I’m sure they did some sort of cost benefit analysis and decided against it.
