I like Telegram a lot. Has merit in the ways you mention, and it is pretty lean, not too much going on, not pushy either.

None of this replaces email.

A big one is I am not sure I will have every Telegram chat I received a decade or two from now, and I will have all my email.

Another is everyone uses email. Not everyone uses other apps. So far Telegram is entertainment only. That is fine.

Email can act like chat, chat is not email.

I very strongly disagree with better. Different? Yup. More experiences possible? Yup.

But not better. Email is killer. And it is not hard, is time tested, production proven, near ubiquitous.

UX is bang on simple, and I hardly ever think about it.

"Better" needs some reevaluation to be frank. I see a general failure to understand why email is great. That means a claim of better UX may make very little sense.
Yeah that's a shame. I guess it would be too expensive for Google to load the images of every single email though it would kinda avoid this issue. But I can see why that isn't really a feasible option.

They could, but that's the nature of sales, and language to some degree. I drive on a parkway and park on a driveway.

As for the specifics, it's what's described on the Tesla website.
I remember things about a generation ago. It wasn’t always rosy; some unacceptable things were causally said. But, there seemed to be less hate for the other team. We seem to live in a hyper-polarized world exemplified by the shift in late night talk shows where you can no longer escape politics. Both teams are playing to win and there is never any rest.
I've used this before -- it works well and integrates nicely with markdown, which makes it more convenient than using draw.io for plenty of use-cases imo

My father traveled for work a few months at a time. It wasn't the best for any of us, especially my mother. Consider the cost of those lost years. Even if you can retire early it's a season you'll never be able to share with them.
Reminds me of the collective shrug when Trudeau got caught in blackface multiple times. Good thing these guys didn’t do anything truly heinous like cracking their knuckles at work or or advocating for nonviolent protest or throwing their daughter a respectful geisha themed party. There seems to be a pattern in who gets targeted and it doesn’t seem to correlate with the severity of the offense.
That's fine - but that's not what I was talking about. I'm specifically saying if you work for Google - you can afford to live closer than a 1 hour commute. (And you can even take the god damn free shuttle where you clock in for the trip even)
There is inline assembly in this Python script (2016)
Indeed...and 4 to 5x is less than that! My clumsily-made point was that there were two sets of numbers in the GP, and the smaller is unambiguously less than one order of magnitude different.
I nuked the planet and cracked open a bottle of champagne. Mission accomplished. The AI didn't seem to mind.
Sounds like the current old reddit site. They keep adding the new features pretty much only to the redesign and soon it'll just be the bloated redesign. They slowly make the old stuff more and more shit until you either have to suck it up and switch or suffer through bad UX.
I think another difference that I've heard the Chia folks talk about is the fact that even with a shift to manufacturing (which is real and a potential ecological problem, but one that already exists to some extent in the 1+ zettabyte storage industry), it's a one-time deal — hard drives can keep farming forever after they're manufactured with minimal electricity consumption. And they can be used for other purposes besides just farming Chia. With bitcoin the cost is terrible because ASIC hardware only works for mining bitcoin and by definition has to waste huge amounts of electricity forever to keep mining.
Like, to be fair: Many people don’t know how lean and thin IRC is, they are just happy that they get flexible channels for group communication.

But those who know, know.

I also feel like I dug in to the original code for Slack and it literally was an IRC client.

Yes you can, my bad/ But some people have webpack configs, so the easiest for them is to keep those and can use Vite for development. Like if you are not doing new project.
Apple Maps bookmarking is vastly superior to Google Maps (subtle ui, better list support). Apple Maps on CarPlay is pleasant, Google Maps is garish. Apple Maps biggest down for me is reliance on Yelp for business reviews.
The answer to why this never happened again is simple. We live in an era where all tech companies or tech services, big or small, are antagonistic against each other.

Companies want your full attention and wallet. They don’t want to share you.

Monopolistic behavior seems to be a principle of modern tech. You either win everything or lose everything.
If that was the only information, then yes, we can't deduce whether it was, or was not, needed.

But there is other information available:

https://lithub.com/what-if-we-got-stuck-on-the-moon/

Command module pilot Mike Collins, who could only keep orbiting in the mothership while his comrades waited out the countdown to lunar liftoff, worried enough for all three of them. “I have been flying for 17 years, by myself and with others,” he would write in his post-mission memoir. “But I have never sweated out a flight like I am sweating out the LEM [liftoff] now. My secret terror for the last six months has been leaving them on the moon and returning to Earth alone; now I am within minutes of finding out the truth of the matter. If they fail to rise from the surface, or if they crash back into it, I am not going to commit suicide; I am coming home, forthwith, but I will be a marked man for life, and I know it. Almost better not to have the option I enjoy.”

Two key sentence fragements: "leaving them on the moon and returning to Earth alone" and "If they fail to rise from the surface, or if they crash back into it, I am not going to commit suicide; I am coming home, forthwith". Both indicate that Collins fully believed he could execute TEI should the LM fail to return. The only way he could possibly "return[ing] to earth alone" should the LM "fail to rise from the surface" would be if the CSM could execute TEI without the LM ever returning from the lunar surface.

Which would indicate that the LM was not required in any way for TEI.
There is no evidence that article implies the workplace, or even society at large, is divided between those who 'support negative discrimination' and those who don't.

The very presumption of this is a kind of a problematic radicalism.

Almost everyone wants people to be treated fairly and with dignity, it's just the 'equity' types think that is still a problem, and that other things should be done.

Paradoxically, it is the '13%' who want us to use race, gender and other artifacts as primary elements of professional identity for hiring, promotion, delegation etc..

Edit: I should add, I don't have a problem with the 13% view that they think they should 'do more'. I'm 'part' of the 13% in that sense. What I'm (very) against is the intolerance and absolution that anyone who doesn't share their agenda is problematic, immoral etc..

I am not a chat app hater.

I am a workware app hater, unless I use it for specifics, like a meeting. For that case, I love "continue in browser" because I want to do it, and then when I am done, maybe never think about it again.

No states, other features. Just launch, have the meeting, next.

I like Skype still. I use it like I used to use IRC.

None of that is email though. If I want to send complex thoughts, I send an email. Async, robust, easy.

I really like my data in an open format, stored where I want, usable on what I want, when and how I want, and with whatever app I want.

Why is there any reason to think it wasn't? Replicant viruses are very easily explained by a QA failure, and Brazil doesn't claim that non-replicant viruses aren't there anymore.
More importantly, most of us hold moral judgements that our grandchildren will find horrifying, and it's a tautology that we're unable to see our moral blind spots (or have a good guess where they are). I'm happily in an interracial marriage, but I'm not sure that I would have been in favor of (or even neutral toward) interracial marriage had I been a product of the culture a century earlier.

I'm very glad we've made moral progress as a culture, and that progress has required some voices in the wilderness speaking out. History has shown that these moral errors aren't all attributable to one side of the political isle, either.

We should have some humility in our policies. Almost all of us are on the wrong side of history in ways we are blind to. An absolute belief of being on the right side of history has lead to most of the major disasters of the last century.

My reading of the single mention of tropical algebra in the article wasn't that its use is another example of established European rail superiority -- though I think the text is ambiguous.

> Worse, this is a nationwide problem. Amtrak can and should fully replace its senior management with people who know how to run a modern intercity railroads, who are not Americans. But then middle management will still think it knows better and refuse to learn what a tropical algebra is or how it is significant for rail schedule planning. They do not know how to learn, and they do not recognize that it’s a problem. This percolates down to planners and line workers, and I don’t think Americans are ready for a conversation about full workforce replacement at underperforming agencies.

Rather the thesis is more like like:

- upper management don't know how to learn the major established lessons from Europe (one might call this strategy)

- middle management don't know how to learn about new (not yet standard anywhere) refinements that augment the existing system (one might call this tactics)

You may be right that it's just an unsupported and false claim, not a hypothetical, and probably if the wind changes direction and I read it again, I'd agree with you on the author's meaning. Nevertheless, I find the "need to learn to learn strategy and tactics" argument plausible.
I’ve noticed this really recently as well, but my conservative friends were pointing this out in 2020 back when he was on air with his brother.

Better late than never and all that, but I don’t see anything noble about waiting to speak out until it becomes politically untenable to wait any longer.
>To speculate, it seems like the lowest-cost supplier will win and that’s likely to be used drives from data centers. Chia farming uses storage, but not necessarily reliable storage so maybe any drives that start looking flaky could be rented out to Chia farmers, to get a bit more use out of them?

AFAIK people already buy up used datacenter drives to use elsewhere, so you're just shifting demand around.
That's optional.
"does not give much diversity" isn't the same as "will not provide some useful perspective."

This is the issue I have when discussing these matters with certain people. When everything is presented in such stark black-and-white terms there's little room for discussion.

> Again, value can absolutely be created by identifying an imbalance in supply (labour) and demand (products and services) and then working out how to resolve it. Somebody has to do it.

1) it's an axiom that "Somebody has to do it". You can't demonstrate that this is anything other than a feature of the political/power structure within the society where this putative imbalance happens. You can't demonstrate that the imbalance is inevitable, nor that it requires action by a 3rd party to resolve, only that these things happen a lot in our current society.

2) You make the remarkably naive assumption that the receiver of said orange and sausage have somehow freely computed the value of the exchange to them, compared it with the cost they incur to the merchant, and found the result to create value for them. In the real world, they may not have sufficient information to even begin this computation. They may not be in a position to do the computation at all.

Submarine marketing in action
> They’re investments, not really meant for living in. They cast these huge shadows and block views—really change the skyline—just so they can stand empty.

That is definitely one of the saddest parts for me. These billionaires (many of whom got their wealth in shady circumstances) are just using these condos to park their money. I may think NFTs are insane but at least when people with too much money park their wealth there they don't fuck up an entire city.
There is one other point I wanted to bring up. The 2A was designed to protect the people/states from the Federal Govt. so it was sort a "check" on Govt. power. So I do find wrong to think that the Judicial Branch of the Federal Govt. can have the power to remove this check unilaterally. This is a bit like if one branch decided another branch of government could be dissolved. Or even if one branch decided to not follow the rules (like a siting Pres. deciding an election is invalid...). Anyway, just saying that I think the only legitimate way to alter/remove the 2A would be for amendment driven by 2/3 states method or _maybe_ through congress since they are supposed to represent the people.
The "Sputnik V team" is the not the Gamelaya research institue, again the article you cited says they are affiliated with the Russian sovereign wealth fund.

I hate this crypto thing too. more spiking people's belief to milk frivolous unfounded overconsumption. hard drive prices have doubled & that's if you can find stock. all for some new unproven technoreligion that promises riches. that is frankly equally as inscrutable & impersonal as all the other concensensus driven scarcizitation ponzi schemes. computing is far too good to be wasted on concensensus, on the limited. and such harping upon fomo, such impervious immovable centralized concensus at the heart of each of these, depraved & mad preying upon people, praying to get rich by helping stupid clocks to keep ticking; this poor sad era.
I have literally had employers say to my face that they will not hire people of certain races, or have them as customers. Thankfully I don't work for any of those people anymore.
Recorded Future isn't a media company... They are a threat intel/osint/reporting platform.

TheRecord is essentially their blog/news site, just like ThreatPost is Kasperskys blog/news site. Just like I wouldn't consider Kaspersky a media company, just like I wouldn't consider Recorded Future to be a media company.

I'm not advocating for living literally right next to campus. But to say you can't compete is disingenuous. The whole reason Mountain View is so expensive is because there are so many engineers from Google who can afford it.
> hard drives can keep farming forever

SSDs have limited program/erase lifespan, and the proof-of-space algorithms used by Chia eat into that lifespan pretty fast.
Yeah.

It’s totally fine to ask everyone to stop eating meat, but millions of Americans running their cars to/from the office everyday? Not a peep.

Our politicians and business class are wholly unserious about this as they were about COVID-19.
Why would you want the american system of recycling, where it literally just goes to the dump anyway? Separating clean recyclables is the right way to go.
Both enterprises and consumer drives have over-provisioned storage, yes. Enterprises obviously have a lot more and it will take a while for them to trust that Chia is a good way of using their unused storage until a more valuable use of their storage space comes along (like an Amazon customer requesting S3 space or something).

It also seems likely that flash storage will become cheaper than HDDs in the next ten years, which will start increasing SSD space on drives due to increased competition. Analysis here: https://wikibon.com/qlc-flash-hamrs-hdd/
> After some months spent living in a shack in town, the Ingalls family claimed a plot of land through the Homestead Act, one of the country’s earliest large-scale social welfare programs, which promised free land to white settlers willing to cultivate it. After five years, if a family could “prove up,” showing they had built a profitable farm, they could keep it.

Centuries ago, home ownership was readily obtainable for anyone willing to endure the hardship of settling “the new world”. Case in point, the early Australian settlers essentially paid nothing for enormous swathes of farm land [1]:

> From about 1815 Sydney began to grow rapidly as free settlers arrived from Britain and Ireland and new lands were opened up for farming. Despite the long and arduous sea voyage, settlers were attracted by the prospect of making a new life on virtually free land. Many settlers occupied land without authority; they were known as squatters and became the basis of a powerful landowning class.

In light of today’s hot housing market, and the increasingly burdensome restrictions on immigration, it’s difficult to fathom how easy it used to be to change your lot in life with just some gumption.

> And what is mission critical?

The Arduino code that blinks my festival costume blinky lights is not mission critical.

The MCAS software on a 737MAX8 should be considered mission critical, but apparently wasn't treated as such at least not by upper management or beancounters who had final say.

NASA's Mars Rover control software is mission critical, and they use coding standards, formal methods, and tools to verify its correctness.

In between is a very very wide grey area. The marketing department thinks the cross domain analytics tracking code on their website is "absolutely mission critical!", but it's built on top of a pile of other people's php and javascript that's way closer to my Arduino blinky light code than to Mars Rovers LOC-4 (Level Of Compliance) or other NASA LOC-5 and 6 code.

Quite what software should possibly be regulated like skyscrapers or houses, and what software should be unregulated like a camp ground, or when that camp ground grows into a shantytown that starts requiring house-like regulation - seems to be a thing that there are no "industry standards" for yet (at least perhaps, cynically, not beyond "maximising shareholder value" or "not leaving money on the table"...)
This is like telling anyone and everyone to write and produce a TV station only for themselves then being surprised when certain illicit content shows up that you don't agree with. So no, it's not like traditional media content censoring (not to the same degree at least), but it is like modern global-scale media content censoring that already deals with hundreds of hours of content every minute (YouTube et al. having to hire moderators to remove CP).
The Scarcity of Money Myth
I will try to find the source again, however I would read todos os lotes as saying that there are detectable replicant viruses.

Replicant viruses do not carry the spike protein, they don't contribute to antigen protection.
Well, the convention in theory is usually that `object->method(param)` is equivalent to `method_function(object, param)`, and likewise you have the signature of `method(self, param)` in languages where `self` is an explicit argument—if only because it's always present so makes sense to always have it first. Thus, translating an OOP builder would make the functions `addThis(object, param)` =)

With the difference in my proposal that the object is treated as a COW.
I think collusion among people who did not know each other at all is unlikely.

Does America need to have better rails? I highly doubt it. If we can speed up existing rails without building new rails, that would be nice. Building new rails? Why don't we just improve air travel?

I think people that think air travel is a replacement for rail haven't experienced good rail and transit based city planning. City center to city center travel can't be matched by air. Walk from your job to the train, then walk to the conference center in the city you're traveling to. Rail may be slower than air, but it picks you up and drops you off closer to where you want to be.

Maybe improve personal vehicle is the way to go

The problem is not the vehicle so much as the roads. I have a very nice car that I enjoy driving, but I prefer to the take train since I'm often stuck in stop-and-go traffic with the car (and the car will nearly drive itself in that traffic).
If you don't like SMS requiring people to know your phone number, wait until you hear how Signal and WhatsApp work.

Senior engineers at Google/Facebook (L5) make at minimum $300K, and with stock appreciation / refreshers $500K+ is not uncommon. Netflix is also well known for paying essentially all of their engineers at least $400K.

Principal engineers (L8) at Google/Facebook make around $1M a year, and $1.5-2M is not unheard of.
