This is a puzzling question. Assuming you are young, $400k invested will easily yield $3M when you are older. Would your future self thank you for roughing it a little? Absolutely!

You could attempt to balance work satisfaction with financial prudence: maybe work 1.5 or 2 years and then move on? Another possibility is to move to another team within the company? If the company is large enough, you will have a good chance of doing this.
This is an extremely exaggerated take. Again, the building codes do not upgrade on that fast of a time scale and even if a house is technically not up to code, they are grandfathered in based on the time they were built. A house that was built 10, 20, even 30 years ago, is still totally fine to live in, even if not up to the most current codes.

If UML is useful at all, it is maybe in enterprise software / modelling business processes and even then I had hard time justifying it, so I can completely understand your reaction when it comes to real-time/embedded software.
UML has never done anything of the kind. I've never read any case studies outside of marketing that claimed that UML increased software quality in any concrete and measurable way.
But Apple holds out the purported security of the IOS app store ecosystem[0] as the reason to pay them $1k for a phone (and the cheapest IOS phone is $450!) and 30% rent seeking for all transactions on the phone, and why they kick apps out of the store simply over speech that they disagree with, such as COVID misinformation or Chinese censorship.

Apple deliberately degrades the performance and functionality of web apps in the sole browser allowed on the IOS platform (Safari, all other browsers are a wrapper around it), slow walk and introduce bugs into standards such as WebRTC, and make it very difficult to install apps as a PWA in order to funnel everyone (50% of phone users in the U.S.) into the App Store, and ban all other app installation methods.

And, when they introduce new features like privacy nutrition labels, it's always so that they can force even more users into their walled garden, and strengthen proprietary apps like iMessage, and build up their ads business. It's like "nobody but us", where "us" is Apple.

So, yes, if they are holding out that all of this app review process is to benefit and protect the users, and the users get scammed because their app review process is apparently incapable of catching these obviously scam apps, then Apple should make the users whole.

0. Apple says its App Store is ‘a safe and trusted place.’

Yep. UML is meh but state and sequence diagrams can be good.

Besides plantuml there's also the very similar mermaid which will work in gitlab markdown and show up in the browser.
There are rumours of a supposed M1X that may hit before the M2, so you may be waiting a little longer than you’d think. :)

Of course, the Apple rumour mill; grain of salt, etc - but I wouldn’t be surprised if we saw an M1X that could, for instance - support 32GB of RAM by the end of the year - (which is the only blocker from me buying an M1) - and pop out the M2 next year maybe with an Apple-CPU-powered Mac Pro?

Food for thought. :)
What Happens When Environmentalists Ignore Data?
Managers like knowing what the code will do. The trouble is, compilers also like knowing what the code will do, and as soon as they know, it's time for delivery, and delaying while the boss catches up doesn't seem acceptable. How can managers find out what the code does ahead of delivery? There's only one way: managers have to ask to see the code before the compiler does.
And I would argue that the need for crime is the problem. You seem to happily skip this step as if crime is a given. Take away the need for crime, solve the problem.

MO is my thought, too. Getting back into server hardware would require supporting a vastly different kind of client, and possibly require them to start doing some things that they, as a company, might find distasteful. Supporting equipment they stopped making a long time ago, for example. Including maintaining stockpiles of replacement parts.
You should give RR or Pernosco a try. They both make it easy to record the program, stop execution at the crash, and then step backwards to see what went wrong.

But honestly, even an ordinary debugger would let you print the value of the iteration variable at the point of the crash, along with all the other variables. I think your example was much too simplified.

My brain parsed this as "Europe Is Trying to Reclaim Its Lost Chipmunk Glory".
You do not really have much manufacturing in the EU. What you have is people working on the design of things that are manufactured in China. Just like the US, which in terms of value-add is the world's largest manufacturer, but in terms of actually manufacturing stuff, not so much.

There is also some final component assembly (but that is not a major portion of value add), it is used to capture subsidies and claim that stuff is "made in X" when it is assembled from parts made all over the world.

The problem is that this is critically depending on IP -- e.g. your designs not being stolen -- and also there are some industries where manufacturing knowledge is the value-add rather than the design. In those situations, Europe can't compete because the factories are elsewhere. America suffers from the same issues and is also falling behind, so this is a general issue with "the west".

How is it possible that modules were released, if nobody has a working implementation? I was under the impression that proposals needed at least a proof-of-concept implementation from a sponsor.

The reason why UML died is muuuch simpler. It simply promised what it could never deliver.

Unlike what UML is trying to simulate, which is an architectural blueprint, a UML model of a system cannot be verified for correctness. But a blueprint can be verified; You can tell "that proposed bridge" will hold "so much traffic and wind" by studying the blueprint.
Agree for Mars - this tech will translate well into other areas of need in hostile environments - like agriculture, mining, large scale manufacturing etc.
> Why does anyone think you can get people to be ethical just by teaching them ethics?

Teaching ethics isn’t about getting people to be ethical who aren’t inclined that way, its to make people who are basically well-intentioned aware of ethical issues in the field and get them in the habit of thinking about ethics in the context of the work, both in planning and executing their own and looking at other work in the field of interest.

> Knowing what other people say about ethics doesn't have a clear path to strengthening your conscience, which is the only "motivation" most people have to be ethical in the first place.

Teaching ethics isn’t about motivating ethical behavior any more than teaching compilers is about motivating people to write them.
I'm sure that there are many alternatives that would be healthier than alcohol for any given individual, be it exercise, social and economic stability, CBT, vacation, improved diet, better sleep, etc. However, in societies where alcohol consumption is an engrained feature of ordinary life and social interactions, is it even feasible to encourage every person to implement whichever of the myriad of alternatives would be more effective for them?

I would argue that, at the public health level, focusing on a naïve "zero level" of alcohol in favour of the "better alternatives" would at best be ineffective, not the least because the better alternatives can be promoted regardless of alcohol consumption. At worst they could even be harmful, if the encouraged abstinence were to discourage the social events associated with non-excessive alcohol consumption.

On an individual level yes indeed, having 0 beers a week may be provably healthier than having 10 beers a week, all else being equal. And that's the crucial point—all else being equal. Those beers are not drunk in isolation or without context. The individual may enjoy trying craft beer with their partner at dinner, or they may meet some friends at the pub and enjoy some slightly disinhibited laughs together. Could this person enjoy trying herbal teas with their partner? Perhaps. Could their friends meet up for a game of volleyball instead? Maybe. Is it realistic to expect similar alternatives to alcohol in the overall population? Very probably not.
The “documents not applications” battle is like 10 years old at this point. The web moved on a decade ago...

I’ve had the “how to deal with folks who disable JavaScript” discussion for well over 10 years and the answer in every shop I’ve worked in has always been the same... don’t bother. And it was the developers themselves making that call, not the “business people”.
I think there are many problems with what you said, but if all that is just to catch the tech-unsavvy people, that excludes organized crime.
In my experience, the broad concepts of UML are applicable and used in real-world engineering/design. By "broad concepts" I mean something like "draw boxes for classes/objects with arrows pointing to related other objects".

Thinking about systems as state machines, sequences, entity relationships, etc is useful. But the rigid details of specific lines styles, arrow types, etc are very rarely used.
Reminds me of https://bramp.github.io/js-sequence-diagrams/ The nice thing about that library is that you actually can have a self-contained HTML page with a diagram, like:

<html>

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/webfont/1.6.28/webfontloader.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/raphael/2.3.0/raphael.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/underscore.js/1.5.2/underscore-min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/js-sequence-diagrams/1.0.6/sequence-diagram-min.js"></script>
<body>
<div id="diagram"></div>
<script>
var diagram = Diagram.parse("A->B: Message");
diagram.drawSVG("diagram", {theme: 'hand'});
</script>

</body>
</html>

And this will draw render a sequence diagram in any browser. I've used this to have as documentation in the /docs folder of project Git repository for some of my teams. It is great because it is pretty easy to update and maintain changes via VCS.

Yeah, why aren’t we destroying the environment in Europe more? This is a great question. Kids these days have it too easy. They barely get any lead in their water.

There's a method for testing this sort of thing: pen-tests with consent from higher ups or "war games" with blue-team/red-team. It's not even a novel thing to do this properly.
They do in south America. Russia because they were only able to import non-soviet cars starting in the 90s. But they are also everywhere there.
The thermal resistance of raw earth is not good, similar to that of concrete. Thermal conductivity is around 10 W/m.K. To be compared to 0.1 W/m.K for a typical building insulating material.

But raw earth is porous and will store moisture, hence behaves like a two-phase material. Water in the earth may vaporize or condensate in the pores, which helps in regulating indoor moisture levels, and explains the high thermal storage capacity of the material. Since earth is cheap, it's also possible to build thick walls and get a high thermal storage capacity in the building envelope. Sun heat will be re-radiated a few hours later at night during winter, and some the cool of the evening nights will be available indoor during summer days. Because of this high thermal capacity, raw earth buildings are good at this so-called thermal phase shift. But raw earth is still a poor insulating material.
It's mostly fine if you fill the pre-wash slot with detergent.
Yeah, not my favorite but I can't fault them for making what they think will sell. Mazda is pretty small potatoes in the car market, they have to choose their battles.

VW skipping the ID.3 hatchback and only bringing the crossoverified ID.4 to the US on the other hand, is more disappointing. It's one thing to do that with a gas car where gas stations are all over and it takes two minutes to fill up. For an electric you're making a direct tradeoff of less battery range to turn the car into a fake SUV that is never going to leave the asphalt. Boooo.
Consider using opaque symbols for your object/cache identifiers instead of using meaningful literals. That way, you can simply update the identifier mapping (Project A cache prefix moves from ajsdf09yu8sbvoihjasdg -> klajnsdg9fasf8avby), and the old values will naturally be evicted from the cache as they become less frequently accessed.

In my experience, having to perform cache invalidation is usually a sign of design immaturity. Senior engineers have been through this trial before :-)

Why is it a questionable decision? I do not see the risk it poses. Literally anyone including organizations far more well funded and vested than UMN are likely submitting hypocrite patches. At its worst, this research is merely substituting one existing bug with a new bug.

> UML has never done anything of the kind.

That may be true, I’m just saying even jf it did, that wouldn't make it a job killer but a job enabler. The whole reason computing is a growing field is it keeps inventing ways to multiply its own output. If that caused the field to shrink, the progressive move from punch cards to IDEs would have destroyed the field.
But it seems like there's a lot more that goes into making a palette specifically for user interfaces: https://design.gs.com/news/color
There are more charitable reasons, I agree.

However, the skill of being able to black-box a process is not distributed evenly. "Something goes in, something comes out" is simpler, and yet it requires a mental parallelism that we often don't realize can be more sophisticated than using domain knowledge to serially sound out individual concrete steps and conditions until you find a way to close the conceptual loop.

Architects and PM's take flak for not being technical enough because it's generally true that the map is not the territory. But having been there, it can be like watching engineers run a maze without a map, and refusing to either accept a map of the maze, or share a map with anyone else.

It's BFS vs. DFS, and they are approapriate for different types of problems. UML in totality is not always helpful, but the most powerful aspects of it can be disruptive to team anti-patterns, and I think this is part of why it has lost a lot of traction.
I'd say that's mostly true for credit card transactions, but I don't of anyone who has gotten scammed and got their money back. Banks either don't care, or can't actually do anything. Scammers know what they are doing.
> as an afterthought

This is my question though. Is it "as an afterthought" or is it "where needed, considering x threat model".

The article above doesn't convince me that it's the former (or that Chrome's approach is anything more than advanced security theatre).
Damnit. Well, it's that or lots of 5-6 hour nights, or worse. Or bad hangovers and other weird shit from sleeping pills. Maybe time to get a sleep-tracker watch.
You run utilities the same way as with masonry, either conduit outside the wall later, or flex conduit placed into the wall as you build it. I've done the latter in earth ship construction (meter thick walls built with dirt basically) and it was as simple as it gets.

As far as practicality, I'd be more interested in the long term stability of the material. But you likely can do the same thing we did with my friends earth ship style domes, which was to coat them in fabric and then spray a few mm thick layer of cement all over it.

Here's the result. As you can see this is something that would appeal to quite a few people. Pre COVID he had no problem booking airbnb guests for this every night for months out.

Unless they have complicity with management, the risk over reward is too great to try this. If they kept the skim small to be unnoticed -- $3-5 on each check, perhaps -- it may still not add up to being worthwhile. Most people in the world are not criminal masterminds; I think sometimes engineers like us forget that others are not constantly looking for loopholes in everything. :)
