I'll be honest, I view DDD as an org smell at this point. Every place I've encountered it, it was attempting to fix with process something that needed to be fixed with culture.

That is, in places where "product understands the problem it wants to solve, and wants to engage with dev about it", and the engineering manager cared about the problem, and worked to get the team to understand and care about it, pitch potential solutions, and then deliver them in a prioritized manner, DDD wasn't even suggested. It just wasn't necessary; all the useful artifacts from it happened naturally because product and dev were so closely aligned.

In the places where product didn't really know what problem they wanted to solve, and didn't want to engage with dev, and the org pressures were around documentation and gating, DDD was heralded as the cure-all that would get everything flowing smoothly, while solving many of the documentation and gating needs. It didn't do any of that.
If you mention Trump in the first sentence in an article about climate change, I assume it’s political drivel and stop reading.
This is common with new technology. It was amazing what was sold under web 2.0. It was amazing what was sold before the dotcom craze.

Blockchains are here to stay. Replacing money is probably not a medium term goal but allowing trustless entities to reach an agreement could be interesting. No one has explored it in smaller non-global settings like a classroom where the first one to get the answer wins.

Not trusting your peers is the future.
It would take an act of Congress to do this. An attempt to do so (likely, there are already bills to do this--there are tons of bills every session that are filled and dead on arrival) would run against major push-back.

Taking away or rolling back the protections of qualified immunity would not be easy under any definition.
I stopped reading when it said make the landing page focus on one thing. No no no. I HATE pages where it’s plastered with “Sign up” but you have to search for the login button.
I’m not really sure how to ask what I want to ask, so apologies if this doesn’t make sense: Does the parachute only work if the plane is in a free fall? If the plane is gliding along and suddenly the engine goes out, for example, would pulling the chute work?
And even without HSTS, most web browsers bury the option to continue deep enough that for most users it could as well not exist. In Chrome you have to click "details" and there will be a tiny link to "continue anyway".
that's not technology fueled, that's "get rich quick" fueled. you don't need blockchain to do that, It has been around for 1000 years.
It is my favorite movie of all time.
Hacking hardware + hacking software + stock market + GO game + GOD

All without sex scenes, silly jokes or some out of order music...

I highly recommend this movie to everyone - I have never seen anything like it for past 20 years...

Proton mail does that, not so sure about the negative signal but there is some merit of using a Swiss company as a honeypot.
A new clue to killer whale cluster behavior
Windows is expensive. Linux is free. Now that MS offers free trial Windows VM images for developers it's less of an issue, but traditionally it's been significantly cheaper for a Windows dev to set up a Linux system than for a Linux dev to set up a Windows system.
Not quite. It’s more of a political salve. “Look those jobs are going away, but we’ll also have other jobs with this new green energy”. Cutting carbon jobs can hurt specific areas quite a bit.

A broken window fallacy would be more like “Let’s adopt this new green energy because it is currently less efficient on a cost basis and so will create new jobs”

Or saying “green energy won’t cost anything because it will create new jobs”. Some people may be saying that one, but I think most people spouting the jobs line are trying to build political goodwill on places currently dependent on carbon jobs.
Google wins cloud deal from SpaceX for Starlink internet connectivity
As if type systeme is necessary to build "enterprise-grade" software, "enterprise-grade" sounds to me like bloated Java with terrible framework like hibernate.

You'd love Ruby My Dear. A French outfit putting out some excellent albums. I've been an Aphex fan for more than two decades and their music is very much along the same lines, albeit a little less ambient and a bit more banging techno. https://rubymydear.bandcamp.com
In free flight, two aircraft can be anywhere in 3D space and collisions are rare.

Around takeoff and landing - there is effectively a 1D track for the approach and the climb-out. It's not quite that simple because different aircraft will have different descent profiles and different angles to the wind, but it's a much smaller 'search space' for collisions.
Scale Up, Impact Down
Key Points

Google announced that its cloud unit has won a deal to supply computing and networking resources to Elon Musk’s SpaceX to help deliver internet service through the latter’s Starlink satellites.

The Starlink satellite internet will rely on Google’s private fiber-optic network to quickly make connections to cloud services as part of a deal that could last seven years.
Apologies, read the post too quickly. Thanks.
It's not really about taxable events so much as possessing a financial interest. Using it as collateral doesn't get it off your balance sheet, nor does it negate the influence of any price swings. If anything, it intensifies them, since a downward swing (say, in response to a tweet saying you're no longer three rocket emoji Bitcoin, only two rocket emoji Bitcoin) might trigger a margin call.
> A blockchain requires trusting the authority that set it up and/or any authority that can 51% attack it.

So, you don't understand how blockchains work, okay.

With a distributed BC you don't have to trust an authority. You trust that 51% of participating entities know what they are doing and that they checked the protocol implementation and agree on one.
You're making assumptions about what "mastering your emotions" mean.

Imagine a river. Controlling the river in the way you suggest is like throwing obstacles in the river trying to dam it.

But instead, imagine trying to redirect the river instead. You don't fight the flow, you just move it.
Phew. Sometimes it feels like all it would take is a few well placed power failures to drive us back to the stone age.
I completely disagree, but I don't really know how to debate such a fundamental thing. It's such a weird philosophy to put your job over your society. I understand it's common, but it's weird. You can find a new job, but you can't find a new planet.

There is also https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_One_(1989_film), which I like better. I also really enjoyed Einstein & Eddington (from the list) for some reason.
Let's get couple of things straight:

1. Politicians are responsible for the laws.

2. Companies are responsible for following the laws.

If you have a beef with any of the above, address the right parties. How they interact and depend on each other is a fact, but also it's not relevant to the above two points. Everyone has a clear responsibility.

Furthermore the phrase "dodged taxes" means "they structured their revenue so they paid less taxes than if they would structure it otherwise". Who the hell says you gotta structure your revenue in order to MAXIMIZE your taxes?

Do you do that? If not, you also "dodge taxes" as far as the media is concerned.
Simply put, for many people it will be interesting to click here https://www.russianbrides.com/hot-russian-brides/ and therefore everything can also be very serious about such an acquaintance with a beautiful girl. Isn't it? This is really a very pleasant pastime and I advise everyone to pay attention to it. So good luck to everyone.
If you read the entire paragraph it says the normally annual report was delayed for three years, by Trump. We now get to see it for the first time.

How could you explain why the report is novel without explaining the delay?

Ah, sorry, I thought the tilde made it clear that "13%" was the approximate result of a calculation.

>Normally, in such cases of non-delivery a trading house could make a claim against a cargo’s insurance policy. But Mercuria found that just one out of seven contracts used by the Turkish company to insure the cargo was real. The rest had been forged.

Can't forge a smart contract.
There is a cause and effect problem here, it's possible that modern economies are producing environmental contaminants which cause obesity and other problems ( hormone disruptors are complex ).

The trend of obesity and declining birth rates is common across all developed economies. As a possibility, the accumulation of non-degradable hormone disruptors may have a cumulative effect causing the problem to grow as the decades go on.
Yeah, nobody is going to miss those DX lenses. That’s not a surprise at all.

But I am a bit surprised they discontinued that 200mm, as they don’t have native Z mount super-telephoto lenses yet. Maybe there was a weird supply chain issue, and they basically had to cancel it now ahead of new Z big-gun lenses.

(I’ll be curious to see if these big wide-aperture telephoto lenses get appreciably better with the new mount. The lack of a mirror really, really improves shorter focal lengths, as you don’t have to deal with complex retrofocal designs as much, but these bazookas don’t have that design limitation as the exit pupil is way out in front.)
That sounds plausible but Musk must have known this when he made Tesla invest in BTC. So why is he now claiming that this is insane when it was expected?
Comptetitive Programmer vs. Software Developer as a technical founder
Is competitive programming(Topcoder, Hackerrank, IOI) a useful asset for a technical founder? Let's say, we have two great candidates for a technical co - founder: IOI gold medalist and seasoned proven software developer. Which one should be chosen, or how they should be chosen? I know that there are tons of external factors, so let's start a discussion. Thanks.

Hongkong is not free, so I am not sure if this is a valid comparison. People of Hong Kong do not have the same opportunities as people of the US.
The problem is how much of the tax payer money is being wasted.
I think the absolute maximum tax should be no more than 30% and the goal should be to reduce it to 15% by reducing waste in public sector.
I currently pay over 50% and this is demotivating. I am at the point when I consider moving to another country or finding less stressing job, that pays much less. It would be a different matter if I saw that 50% actually benefits me in any way, but I feel like this money goes down the toilet each month.
I generally verify types only at the boundaries of my application (or very critical modules) using norm[1].

Either you have a strict type system that does not have an "any" type (yes, I'm looking at you Typescript), or you have a flexible type system like Python/Erlang/Elixir and you do runtime type checking whenever it's needed.

I'm writing more Typescript code than I would in Javascript for almost no type safety benefits (but for documentation, it's awesome).

It depends on where you get it from, but in general it seems like it's the same stuff.

Cups are typically coated with polyethylene to make them waterproof, but I think I read somewhere that they are then coated with PTFE to make them slide apart easier when stacked.
I've had bad managers to. The fact that bad managers exist is not a reason to shrug your shoulders and just hire shitty managers any more than bad coders existing is a reason to just give up on pupulate a team with them.

As for "Part of it is because, it does not matter that manager thinks you a are worth less than nothing. Not to the real owners anyway. What matters is whether they deliver on what is needed."

That's straight nonsense. A bad manager can often make sure a top performer they don't like never gets the credit they deserve or has any internal opportunities.
Ironically your comment is closer to political drivel than the article.
Reading through both that and IBM's site, I'm struggling to see how blockchain enables this in any way? Covid test and vaccine providers have to be trusted for any of that to work, and without the "trustless" element blockchain provides you literally zero advantages (with a huge amount of disadvantages).

EDIT: I guess I could request the whitepaper from IBM and read it, I mean what's yet one more tech giant sending me spam and selling my info to advertisers going to hurt? But I don't see any way for the entire thing to work and avoid people making up fraudulent test results/vax records without trust. I mean even with trust a clinic could feasibly fake that stuff, but without trust pretty much anyone could do it.

EDIT2: Requested the whitepaper from IBM and it's literally just an 11 page marketing PowerPoint. Mentions blockchain a few times but doesn't explain how it solves anything that a normal RDBMS (or even some fancy distributed one with immutable records etc. where all parties are trusted) couldn't do.
The second link is the crash report. There were four occupants and only one fatality, so only he died.

As folks remark something like a Mars mission may be a life sentence. It will be a different ballgame. It almost seems inevitable that folks will break.

A common occurrence on the early pioneer prairies in America was mental health problems. My Dad was 3rd generation in Iowa, and he knew several older folks who'd lost the plot. They talked exclusively of their past; they didn't follow conversations; they only functioned within their small world of the farmstead. They were largely treated normally as far as could be managed. But they had a relatively congenial ecosystem to live within. Won't be that way on a Mars colony.
Haha sorry, you're right bad example.
I think including the example images in the original blog post would have helped to convey your points better.
Ethereum is moving to proof-of-stake
People love making fun of the bad orbital mechanics in Gravity, but Interstellar is no better. In the beginning they need a Saturn V-size rocket to leave earth orbit. Later they simply decide to leave the laws of physics behind and start zipping around earth-size planets in a tiny scifi-shuttle. Not to speak of the impossibility of kilometer-tall waves in knee-deep water and the ridiculous spinning spaceship scene.
Not a movie but I would suggest Halt and Catch Fire

As awesome as Go is, Java & SpringBoot are so entrenched in the enterprise world that Go has to come up with something much more awesome.

It's very hard to justify why teams within an enterprise should not use Java/SpringBoot. A typical enterprise already has thousands of developers who support and develop existing critical business applications. Due to historical reasons most of these developers are familiar with Java and they find it hard to justify using another language.

That coupled with the fact that Java and SpringBoot made some really good choices and can compete with most newer language features, its hard for other languages to penetrate that.
Yeah.. any help in understanding why we should use this compared to Fastlane, Codemagic etc. Apart from pricing.
FWIW Ethereum has been planning to move off PoW for years. Really since the very beginning. No idea if it'll work but nonetheless, it's been the plan all along.

It's good to see that python startup time is an explicit goal. Empty scripts taking 10-100ms is a problem if you use python in Makefiles, where you can have thousands of invocations in a build.

Yuck.

The fact that junior devs are learning this as facts of life should be a point of shame for the industry. I thought similar things when I worked at Amazon, but by and large a life built around corporate bullshit is not for me.

There are other companies out there that are much more human and don’t force you to restructure your mindset around what it takes to climb the ladder rather than what makes a great software engineer.
Oh, it's way older than that. Here's a story from 1996: https://www.spiegel.de/politik/wer-ist-der-befugte-vierte-a-...
CFFI [1] is a step in the right direction, inspired by LuaJIT's CFFI. It originated from the PyPy folks and is supported in PyPy [2]; it's also supported to some degree by Numba [3]. I don't know what level of C call optimization is available when using the JITs, so I can't speak to the performance, but I've used it casually via CPython and was impressed by the API. That said, it has been around for a while and the traction seems somewhat limited -- I would guess because most people who have this kind of problem also need more than "just" FFI.

If this is the case, the question turns to how we can survive the impact instead? What kind of shelters would need to be built, how much provisions we'd need and for how long, etc.

The problem is usually multi-faceted, and there is no reason to think something like this would spell doom for the civilization.
Yeah, but think of all the uniformly dandelion-free yards we got out of it.
From my experience generics are the most useful at the library level. For containers you obvious want it for many libraries it is useful.

Most of the time once you are getting to business-oriented software I think you tend to have more concrete implementations and you don't miss generics much (other than the implementation side where there is the pain of using libraries that didn't have access to them)
>I wonder if the police officer would have had the unconstitutional request if Wingate was not black.

The article didn't mention his race and I don't think it's relevant here. This is a part of the country where the cops do this to everyone because they're used to getting away with it.

I read the whole article thinking "this sounds like a typical northeast Virginia jack-booted cop that's used to trampling on people's rights".

A "landing page" is not necessarily the home page. It can be a page that a Google/Bing ad points to, or one that ranks high on search, that's specifically designed to talk about the product and its features.

If you are already a user of the product, chances are you'll bookmark the login page, or have it appear in your browser autocomplete. Worst case scenario, you'll go to the homepage and click the login button on the top right.

Nikon and Canon are both basically ending production of anything DSLR, except for basically the newest models and lenses which still show a profit.

As old inventory runs out on some of these older designs, they finally and officially mark them discontinued.

Nikon really needs to focus on their mirrorless lineup, especially since the Z mount is lacking a number of essential pro lenses, like anything over 200mm, macros, and other specialist lenses. Plus, their other new lenses (including the 'trinity' of pro zooms) are still in very short supply.
I definitely think they made the right call here. Even Microsoft is dropping support in Office 365.

Commendable, too, that they are working to backport some v3 features to the v2 codebase.
> Works as well as anything.

Which is to say, just barely well enough to keep going.

And then there's the whole thing with how its scaling issues are mitigated via the platform dependency on the state's monopoly on violent enforcement. Emphasis on monopoly.
I felt erilly familiar with the details of this accident after reading the details. I dug up my browsing history and realized I watched the ATC exchange of this very collision yesterday not realizing that this had happened the very same day the video was uploaded[0].
