similar in Poland - general shortage of everything, corruption. Dont know the details of how it was with appartments but for sure you had to wait long (like 10 years), there was never enough appartments available and the system of distributing these was unclear and corrupt. On the positive side, there was no problem with trash, there were no packages, no plastic containers, no pre-packaged foods (we had food rations), and newspapers were printed on such low quality paper that you could use it intead of toilet paper (which wasnt available of course).
Computers were extremely expensive as they were imported and had to be bought for dollars, and exchange rate was like your monthly salary was the equivalent of 20 dollars

I think you a word
Indeed. Our software basically sits between customers systems (ERP/WMS etc) and some gov't systems. Even a bare-bones integration usually means getting data from ERP/WMS and sending data back to invoicing system. As you say, how orders/invoices etc are structured varies a lot.

In the more complex systems we interact with over 6 other systems, sometimes a lot more if the customer has done acquisitions but not consolidated IT systems (one potential customer had over 20 systems we'd have to integrate with, including 5-6 different WMS systems).

We found that it's usually easiest to just get the customer to tell us what their systems can provide or need, and then make the shims on our end. We've got a few customers running BizTalk and such but as far as I can figure they're mostly just an additional point of (frequent) failure.

> As if you do that for 10 years you have 4M dollars, 20 years?

If you're making 400k post-tax, sure. If that's pre-tax income, however, you're not making 4M after 10 years.

After federal taxes you're making closer to $286k, roughly. This is just for the privilege of being a US citizen - even if you don't necessarily spend the majority of your time in the country.

Assuming this is a CA software engineer, it's closer to $250k. This is just for the privilege of having a tax basis in CA.

Assuming you actually do live in the Bay Area as a single bachelor and would like the privilege of having your own apartment that you don't have to share with others (remember, you're "rich") a nice unit to yourself will run you roughly $3k/m -> $24k/y. So we're much closer to $225k/y.

Even assuming this person has no car, no social life, and no metabolism we're still running at roughly half of your projections. Which is still a fair chunk, to be sure. But it's still half of their money going towards the privilege of obtaining money.

EDIT: just saw this bit

> I get that COL lowers that, but if you are making 400K you're not renting

This depends, as buying is not always superior to renting, especially when you're talking a house. A house is a pretty big investment - so much so that a lot of financial circles still spend a lot of time between "get a home, what isn't equity is a tax write off" and "just rent, no surprise expenses, remain more liquid, invest the difference between your rent and a typical mortgage in the market".

The last time I was looking in the South Bay area, average prices for a 2 bedroom home in a suburb were ~$1.2m. This is a $240k down payment and ~$7.3k monthly (15 year conventional, down to ~$4.7 for 30 year but we're outside of the "10/20 years" we described above and paying more interest for it besides).

If we account for all that, we're looking at much closer to $190k being available to us after the privilege of living and working (that's adjusting for the taxes, but it's not so clean as interest is a sliding scale over the years) - just now we have a place to ourselves that cost us around a year or two of savings time just to start the house purchase and a recurring expense that's over double the nearby rent. This is largely not favorable to the majority of people unless they're wanting to lay roots. That said, given people seem to be leaving I'd imagine housing prices will become less steep in a matter of years; albeit whether it makes it more reasonable to buy than rent for those not looking to stay for 15+ years remains something of an open question.
I'm not sure about that. If I had an axe to grind I'd probably write something like "Epic paid so far 1 billion USD to bribe, coerce, directly incite and enable game developers and publishers to abandon previous commitments and break existing contracts, in a concerted effort to make said games not available on certain platforms such as Steam for as long as possible"[0]

Not sure how I feel about the company that makes an OS forcing users to remove certain software, even if it is deprecated.

It's probably for the best though, in this case. Last I heard Flash is still kind of a big attack vector.

I'm really glad these don't come with a USB C port, otherwise I'd be really tempted to purchase one. There's something oddly calming about doing complex calculations on a calculator versus on a computer. I find myself reaching for the TI-34 on my desk every now and then when I want to really focus and figure something out. The benefit of the TI-34 is that it's solar powered, so I never have to worry about charging it or changing the batteries.
That in itself is not too useful, for reference you should run a few other implementations on your machine, as the numbers will likely be better for all of them on a beefier machine.
Totally. Most developers stop at decoupling the ui components, backend connections etc. It is not very common to see developers extract the application logic to be configurable from these components.

Logically loaded React classes is a common example of this. Filling up these components with bugs and making them hard to test.

Once I experienced how well it works to abstract logic from components my code simplified immensely and writing good tests became easy. And then making the logic configurable truly elevated the capabilities of our “meta-driven programming”.
> But these tools are for people who don't know how to build those apps by writing actual code.

IMO assuming low-code is just for people who don't know how to code is missing the power of low-code in the ERP/CRM space, and how that will be applicable to more spaces in the future.

Besides, I can program but I can also build a simple application in a low-code solution quicker and it will usually be more reliable without lots of testing.

IMO saying low-code is for people who don't know how to write actual code is like saying a typewriter is for people who don't know how to write with a pen - they are two different tools to get a job done, and sometimes a pen is better and sometimes a typewriter is better.

Teaching her how to program a computer is basically like giving her an infinite lego set. She can keep building new and interesting things as her interests change over time.

I cannot overstate how impactful learning how to program was in my life. When I learned how to read, I could learn about anything that interested me. When I learned how to program, I could build anything that interested me: a website, a physics simulation, plot data I had collected.

There are many resources for little kids to get started with the concepts, and as she grows older she can do things like create Jupyter notebooks for her projects, post about them, etc. The possibilities are endless.

I won't contend the point you're making regarding the costs of healthcare for population that is healthier on average vs one that isn't (elderly). That's true.

The idea that our collective human society is going to be handing out everlasting life to anyone who wants it is, even in light of this, something I can't begin to fathom. Perhaps if the arrival of the immortality drug also coincides with the arrival of a utopian society that actually cares about people beyond their basic (and incredibly power-imbalanced) economics that are skewed to benefit corporations not only over people, but over governments, then I can accept it.

But in context of the way the world currently works, this is an incredibly optimistic or naïve assertation to me. People die every day even in the most developed nations due to a lack of access to healthcare, food and/or shelter.
Do android handset makers do these notifications? I mean - it's very likely that a LOT of chinese apps in particular (which these were) may have security holes, including ones that are there for govt purposes.

> Low-code and no-code solutions are often created by shadow-IT.

Heck, while it is phrased differently, enabling Shadow IT is an explicit selling point of low- and especially “no”-[0] code tools.

Of course, Shadow IT isn’t the tools fault, it is the organization that segregates IT into a separate heirarchy often the whole way up until the C-Suite.

If IT was a function integrated within each business unit empowering it, rather than external silo alternately constraining arbitrarily and granting favors, Shadow IT woudn’t be a thing. Shadow IT is a symptom of a broken relationship between IT and the broader organization.

If you like coffee with kava (never tried but read about the effects) you might also be interested in yerba mate. Specifically chimarrão, the south brazilian green non-smoked variant. It is in the same tier as coffee caffeine-wise but to me it is more multipurpose as there is a sort of mild euphoria that goes along with it. I find I can quite effectively code and learn with it, but it is also an enjoyable drink for my leisure/relaxation time.

It is a higher latency option if using the traditional container along with a thermos as one has to wait for the water to cool under 80C. It is also higher throughput in the sense that one continues to refill their container with water from the thermos a number of times until the plant matter has given its all.

And the distribution of it. Also on the matter outside their orbit. Galaxies are not spherical distributions of matter. Physicists have been misapplying the divergence theorem for years in this context.

I hope shes over simplifying here, but somehow I doubt it.
I still don't understand, sorry. If the callee does something which could cause the caller's object to change, such as calling an unknown function or modifying through another pointer which might alias the parameter, the callee would just have to make a copy.

Could you provide an example of a situation where there would be more copies made using the proposed ABI than in traditional ABIs?
That per se wouldn't be a new issue; for example in the Itanium ABI non-trivially copyable objects already use a different calling convention than PODs (specifically they can't be passed via registers and need need to be passed via hidden pointer).
> They used to have encrypted backups, but at some point in time, the Android backup (and AFAIK the iOS backup as well) dropped encryption.

Is this actually the case? I know they say it's not protected by E2EE, but my understanding is:

- images are unencrypted (just like they're accessible on your phone's external storage, where many apps can read them)
- the text messages are encrypted, but the key is escrowed with Facebook, who will provide it to anyone who can pass SMS verification

This means that an attacker has to get access to both your Whatsapp account and your Google/Apple account. This isn't a very high hurdle (for governments, this likely just means two subpoenas, and for other attackers, it just means getting access to your phone number through one way or another, because in many cases that will let them hijack most of your accounts), but it seems slightly better than unencrypted.
As you know, in do_thing you have taken a mutable pointer to l and placed it in a location where someone else could access it.

Thefore, before the call to foo1, the compiler simply creates a copy of l, and then passes an immutable pointer to that to foo1. Effectively falling back to how the old ABI worked.

The code generated for foo1 does depend on the code that calls foo1. That is what an ABI is. An ABI is a specification of the contract between the caller and the callee.

The proposed new ABI says "If you are passing a struct by value, then you, the caller, will give me a pointer that you guarantee can't be modified until I return. In turn, I guarantee that I will not modify the pointer you give me."
Most of the phases of GC can be done parallel, so allocation should stop only for a really small amount of time. For comparison, Java's low-latency GC (which optimize for latency but may reduce throughput), ZGC can do worst-case <1ms pause times, that is the OS scheduler will cost more than GC.
Ha! Those recognition circuits are real. For us it was birds (quail). They were terrified of rolling balls -- basketballs, soccer balls, tennis balls, you name it, if they saw it roll they would make a special "emergency honk" and the entire group would freeze for the next minute. We had never seen that reaction before even though we raised them from eggs. They didn't ever do that as a reaction to people, they didn't do it in response to the neighborhood cat, and they didn't do it with explosions on TV (they quite liked those, actually). It was by far the strongest fear reaction we ever saw from them.

It took us a while to figure out why: it was probably a bird-of-prey detection circuit looking for gliding motion.

How is it logical to know living forever is bad when you there isn't a single person on the face of the earth who has done so? This is not a rational statement or philosophy. It is simply speculation as we have no evidence whether this is good or bad unless we talk to someone who has experienced it. Fundamentally speaking... no one has experienced this so we have no evidence FOR or against it.

Additionally "living forever" isn't invulnerable immortality where you are doomed to float around alive in the solar system long after the sun has inflated and pulverized the earth as a red giant... You'll still die well before that.

You can also always choose when to kill yourself, whenever. Logically any form of "living forever" described as a scientific possibility is actually more of a "you can choose when you die" or a "you can live much longer than normal"

Rural: "The city-living ways don't work out here so well, but there's too many of you guys for me to even begin to tell you how to act or what to do, so as a compromise just let me be"

City: "Rural folk live really unsustainably/unculturably/deplorably but they don't know any better, its up to us to make them understand. Anyway the urban center provides more value than what the countryside provides, we should be dictating the path of progress in this county/state/country/continent.

The locus of power has always been around cities though, so that is where elites and elitism will always centralize.
