You don't really critique engineering, it either works or it doesn't, everything else is extra and based on preference. Art is purely non-functional, therefore critiquing it makes sense, because it's all about how it's interpreted. With code, the interpretation is done by the interpreter; compiler; platform; framework; etc.

If a piece of code gives you an error, then it needs to change, if it doesn't, then it's style or preference UNLESS it does have a technical impact, and then it needs to be automated, part of the system itself instead of relying on human eyes. In other words, critiquing code is really doing the computer's work, because in theory you would have linter rules, unit tests, integration tests, that would tell you when you need to change something.

That said, you can never have a perfect system that takes care of everything such that reviews aren't necessary (where only making the build pass is needed). Humans are still needed, but that is only because of the lack of automation and rules built into the system. Therefore to the extent you do have to review, you shouldn't be a dick about it. I agree with that, however the real solution is to let the machine handle everything.
Maybe it's a form of organisational dissociation to deal with the horror of what's on the other end of the weaponry.

If you were in a position of influence in the army would you choose to soul-search about bombed children or try and construct some meaning around "Figure 4-1. Movement of the staff and command bugler around commander of troops".
The books are absolutely jam-packed with detail, foreshadowing, reference and masterful writing (have you noticed Felurian speaks in Iambic pentameter?). I think he has just written himself into a combinatorial explosion of a corner.
DragonflyBSD uses pkgsrc's and Dsynth package management system as far as I know but mailing list of DragonflyBSD can answer better.
And for those readers it's about consistency. Looking at the Chinese translated web novels: the stories don't even have to be great, but they have enjoyable characters and there's an enormous amount of content.

People read machine translated stories! Sometimes you can't even tell what's going on based on those translations, but people still read them.
yes. and I imagine those choices were more likely due to the permissive license than for any particular technical reason.
If ever present computing devices were gone, I think we'd be looking at the on-demand content from providers and the streaming services as the great ruiner of children. At least when I was growing up, you could actually run out of content on the idiot box. Your show wasn't on and you didn't have enough channels to find something else.

We'll see how this plays out, though. I think some aspects are constructive. The growing content creation community seems to be a Good Thing. The even faster growing content creation consumption community, doesn't seem to be. Personally speaking, I've found myself at an expert at a ton of things, but haven't actually done any of those things.

>That is exactly how gdpr is set up. Which is good.

So if the US comes out with "GDPR- The Next Generation" with similar mandates towards the EU would that also be "good"?

Asking for a friend.
Fine then enforce that:

Any software that is used by EU citizens (downloaded from EU App Store or EU vendor website) should use EU DNS servers. (The user should be allowed to change the DNS on per device and per app lvl)

I’d be okay with that. And I think that solves your issue, my issue and EU’s issue.

You're not broken. People keep asking me why my girlfriend and I don't have kids... I don't understand that question to be honest. They all act like I should have some desire to raise a kid. I ask them, why they don't learn to weld or do woodworking (usually I ask them something they have never considered)? Sometimes there are just things that people do that I don't want to. There's not actually a reason for me to not have kids. I have nothing against it, I just don't ever sit here during the day and think "boy, my life would sure be better with a baby." If you do, that's fine, I'm not trying to rag on anybody. But just fuckin' leave me alone about it.

People should never have kids 'just because'. If you want to raise a family, you should do it deliberately and have a reason why you WANT to have kids. Otherwise you end up being a resentful asshole and treat your kids like garbage. I know it's the best thing in the world for a lot of people... but for a lot of people, let's be honest, it's not. Not wanting kids doesn't make you an asshole, it makes you human with different goals and desires from other people.
I have yet to successfully build a project with the strict mypy settings, without resorting to either turning some off or having to use an explicit Any. And a lot of the non-default settings are absolutely critical if you care about correctness.

Lack of recursive types has been a major deal breaker for me. If you have a class Foo that can construct a class Bar, and a class Bar that can construct a class Foo, you can't express that in mypy without Any-Generics.

To me, at this point, mypy is barely a linter, it's more of a "this helps my IDE autocomplete faster", and definitely not a type system.
Some places add on fees for paying by EFT or credit card. When the fee is something like the greater of $3 or 3%, that's an incentive to continue paying by check.
Interesting debate. However:

- I doubt that the EU meant to directly investigate the pentagon, the opposite might have some history.

- The argument that there is redundancy and therefore it is safe is incomplete to say the least. For instance, how heterogeneous are operations, software, potential failures...?
I love this. Thank you for sharing!
We unfortunately had to switch away from this as it took too long for pyre to support Python 3.8 after it was released. I've been using mypy since then, but I had no complaints about pyre when I used it.
Yes! Close would attempt to change the status of a ticket from Open to Closed, but often fail along the way with a cryptic error about the RADstack being 99% full.

Exit would close the window, and also break your workflow if you had HPSM open in two browser tabs

Even the performance claims do not really hold up anymore. Freebsd in general performs better and not surprising since it has so many more resources.

Yes, it's not a perfect comparison... But if you were to ask someone who regularly drives (or is driven in) A Bentley whether a Toyota RAV4 is crap they will probably say yes. Why? Because what's important to them is the luxury, and the bells and whistles of their Bentley. Compare this to software where they largely have the same "features", but one platform is easier to use than the other. Is the software that is easier to use "luxury software"?
similarly, don't hide stuff in the freezer - it seems like a clever place that nobody will think to look in, but everybody else has had the same thought & it's one of the first places anyone even remotely experienced will search

Shrinking by whom? EU partisans or the technical world at large? Quite a difference about who's "shrinking" I couldn't care less about.
There's also https://sightreading.training/ which I found helped me a lot to learn how to sight read faster, and it also lets you plug in your piano via MIDI.
It depends on what you mean by a "full personality profile". I think a skillfully chosen selection of tests, which may sometimes include personality tests, can aid in the selection of the proper candidate.

I agree that the battery of tests used should not be the same in every case. It should be tailored to the situation and to the position you are hiring for.

> Not only do you take up HR resources, the team that is helping you recruit is also going to need to spend time going over the results with HR and the candidate.

I have second-hand experience that this can be made very streamlined and does not take much time at all. Especially when you have a large number of prospective candidates and will not be able to see them all in person, a pre-filtering done by a skilled HR person is better than a random draw.
Would you say the same about medium.com too? Or any site that allow people to sign up and create blogs/articles?
I think you are misunderstanding her argument and tbh I don't think anyone makes the claim that inflation hurts the poor because they are in debt. If anything it is the exact opposite. Inflation is a benefit to debtors because they get to pay back principal in devalued currency. That's why a cheap 30 year mortgage is an amazing deal in an inflationary environment

Inflation hurts people who don't have access to debt and who are more dependent on cash and on fixed incomes. This is exactly what Lyn claims here:

> There are, however, some groups in lower income brackets that do poorly in inflationary environments. If someone doesn’t have a lot of money and lives on a fixed income in retirement, they have a lot of vulnerability to inflation. Those sorts of folks should consider owning inflation hedges to protect their lifestyle, if they expect that high levels of inflation have a reasonable probability of occurring.
Are you guys also on the autistic spectrum too because that is no way to raise kids. When they leave the carefully curated and filtered walled garden that you've created for them and enter the real work at 18 or so, they are going to be hit like a truck. In college its always the kids whose parents were the strictest that act out or become alcoholics when the finally get a taste of freedom. You cannot do everything for them, it is better now for them to experience more of the world/ internet when you still can influence them/ they have a high opinion of you rather than ten years down the line when they feel betrayed or whatnot by you and don't want to speak.
To be honest I just take it for granted that all exit relays are either run by Feds or at least compromised by Feds. If you use Tor for anything you wouldn't want Five Eyes to know about, you're an idiot.
Yah I should have called out that there are different interests and Photography is very much composed of:

- Photographers
- Modern Gear collectors
- Vintage Gear collectors

You can have a little bit of each of these 3 you're interested in, and you won't necessarily always have the same interest in each area.

But people who are 100% interested in one of the gear collecting aspects are pretty common and are very far from the artistic side.
I'll preface this with: this isn't a derogatory question, I just don't know a better way to phrase it.

Out of curiosity, who uses this? I assume given how long it's been around there must be a market segment or a geo local where it's popular (like SLES has large penetration in Europe and SAP).

I know multiple closed source vendors that have built products on net/open/freeBSD. Dragonfly is the one distro I've never once run into in the wild.

What is legacy code and how to avoid it?
Maybe women lie more than men on the question? Or maybe 20% of men are dating more than 1 woman?

For total numbers of partners, it makes sense if you look at the numbers in the top quartile. In other words, men with the most partners have X times as many partners as women with the most partners. You can do that without any multiple partners, just by looking at the top quartile.

But I think there's some other ways it could make sense if you were looking at the average of everybody (perhaps this is just theoretical and there's not much contribution from these to the numbers, tho maybe there is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯): if relationships are not evenly distributed, and if there are multiple partners.

In the first case, say only 30% of men are dating 80% of women. The remaining 70% of men and 20% of women go unmatched in the time period. Now there's two ways this could occur: in serial, or in parallel. In the serial case, 30% of men date 30% of women, until t1, then they all break up, and date the next 30% of women until t2, then 20% of men break up and date the remaining 20% of women until t3. Over t0 to t3 80% of women were paired at some point, and 30% of men were paired. In the parallel case, the 30% of men are dating the 80% of women all at once.

These numbers are just examples, but I think within these parameters and possibilities there could be some truth to how we get these statistics, which I think are totally valid. But I also wouldn't be surprised if there were serial or parallel promiscuity effects on the female side as well, and I think there would be some (but a fewer number, tho more than "society" would expect) of women in the top quartile that would have more, as many or nearly as many partners as the men with the most (female outliers, or female superdaters). Perceived and innate risk of sex as assessed differently between genders, as well as individual gender/hormone influenced preferences, probably account for adjustment as well.
I don't think I'm greedy for trying to see if a 100k salary would be possible. I've made that as a writer and editor throughout my career, why not hope for it as a novelist? (or at least try for it!). It might not turn out that way in the end, but better to reach high than low!

but it's the moment when Visual Studio Code steps in :P
The biggest influence on small query performance for RDBMSs is server<->client latency. I just checked, and a single simple key-value style lookup in postgres over a local unix-socket connection takes 0.025ms on average.

However, if I use pipelining, I see 1000 lookups performed in 4.725ms (i.e 0.0047ms per lookup).

If you test the same over an actual network, the performance difference is going to be much bigger, because it's not just context switch, but actual network delay.

You're never going to beat a dedicated KV store with a shared-nothing event listener architecture with a general purpose RDBMS. Transactional semantics imply some overhead, non-shared buffer pool isn't generally viable, ... But I don't think the difference is as big as you make it out to be.

Disclaimer: Postgres dev, so I'm certainly biased.
Stealing from people and using some of the money on them does not make stealing morally right. Same goes for extortion. It looks like you want to continue living off of crime.

I was gifted a copy of Mistborn by Sanderson and I've been having trouble reading. The first handful of chapters dragged for me, so I put it down in favor or something else. I think you point about flat characters is what did it for me; I believe good characters can carry a mediocre story, but a story has to be really exceptional to carry a narrative with uninteresting characters.

I am hoping to give it another shot this summer, but I can't exactly say I am looking forward to it.
Is the 12 root server organisations an example of decentralisation?
Realistically you donate so that the school has a bigger budget and more opportunity to gain prestige making your diploma more valuable. That's really only relevant to a small subset of the population and rapidly shrinking. Four decades ago degrees had meaning but now they are largely participation trophies that come at great expense.
> is so appealing to me.

So what is so appealing? Isn't it shows that people are so indifferent and ignorant that they couldn't even spot a Nobel prize winner just because they did not care enough to ask?

What if his success or life would be dependent on their recognition? He would probably die unnoticed ... It's very sad story I would say.

Reading this actually should convince even the most modest person in the world to promote himself like hell ...

Actually I think I also should promote myself from now on because people would simply not notice any of my talents and thus many opportunities to do great things can be lost. I think it was a great mistake every time I was modest about own talents and abilities.
It works in China, but there the authors get paid by word count. And yes, it does lead to exactly the types of problems you can imagine. But there are so many of these stories that some end up being very engaging.

Also, sites like Royalroad and Scribblehub have a fair few authors who make a significant amount of money through Patreon and the like.
I think the word “authenticity” is something that expresses what it is your team does that more people would understand. I think most people know what a certificate of authenticity is and it sounds like your service provides a digital, saas version of that.

If by "reform" you mean "complete elimination", then I agree.

Have you looked at improving individual performance/tweaking training plans? Versus more game theory of group games? Or have any research suggestions to read for say a competitive college athlete performance level?

I'd be super interested in that and seems like the more data we can collect from watches etc the more potential variables to model or train ML suggestions on?

lots of companies spending big money on this market too. Apple, pton, smart watches.

The documentary Breaking2 from nike about the marathon is really good, shows some advanced individual measurements that wouldn't be available to almost everyone (lactic acid blood draws while running..). in my sport climbing finding new ways to push lactic acid tolerance or better improving physiology through BFR or whatever training would be really valuable and maybe push the sport even further.
There is nothing wrong with being mediocre.
Maybe people's time could be spent better administering servers - i.e. doing useful work - than complying with busywork from bureaucrats intent on solving problems that don't exist.

Or even worse, bureaucrats making shit up to not only justify their existence but justify the expansion of their empires - which is exactly what this smells like.

There is nothing broken or in need of fixing with how the root servers have worked and work today.

Are we paying the technical debt of big corporations that controls the Web?
Yesterday I was writing an article with a 5 minutes hack to dramatically improve a Google Web Core Vitals website score. And came up with the following reflection...

I believe that putting the user as a key priority when designing and implementing a website is a must. And appreciate that Google takes steps forward to it adding the Core Web Vitals as a ranking factor. However, I think that they are just passing the problem to us instead of fixing it themselves.

Why instead of creating a complex scoring system and try to enforce people to follow it, why not just implement a solution at a browser level or in a different layer of abstraction?

In that way, small businesses, marketers, designers, and individuals, can spend their time and money CREATING VALUE, instead of being messing around with complex tech solutions.

am I wrong? What do you think about all of this?
I would call it more of a hope than an expectation. Really what I'm trying to figure out is if it's possible to monetize a niche audience (with fiction content) and make a living from it. I guess we'll find out...

Dark-Matter Storm Is Speeding Toward Our Solar System
Having worked at a company with a ServiceNow implementation, I think I'd summarize my experience as: ServiceNow can be transformative when implemented by a competent team, or utterly useless when not managed well or left as-is upon deployment.

Orgs get in trouble by trying to solve internal process inefficiencies and related people problems by throwing ServiceNow at it. The "digital" version of a shitty process is still a shitty process.

> But I've never heard a single soul have anything favorable to say about SNOW

I've been to the conferences, and there are plenty of folks who love the technology stack, and can do powerful things with it. But I suspect that most people experience the product as an end-user, and that experience is 100% dependent on the team that owns/implements the platform. There's a big difference between "We have a center of excellence for automating manual processes, and ServiceNow is part of that solution" and "We brought ServiceNow in to solve world hunger" .... ("is this thing on??...")
The food we eat has an immense impact on how we feel, and certainly has an impact on mental health issues such depression, attention, emotional regulation, etc. Every single thing you eat is the substrates from which all of your cells are made. The old paradigm looked at food as just units of energy, but that is not the new paradigm. What we eat, how we move, our sleep quality, how we manage stress - these things have enormous implications on pretty much every single health metric you can imagine.
