I'm pretty sure you just described the value prop for CloudFoundry.

Seriously though you're talking about another abstraction layer on top of whatever cloud provider(s) you're using. And the issue with such abstraction layers is that to really make them portable you're stuck with the lowest common denominator of features. Such a thing doesn't really play well with the immaturity and velocity of cloud providers - we need and use the latest features from the cloud providers and get stuck waiting for TF providers to add support. And that's just talking control plane - you also need abstraction layers for all your data plane interactions to homogenize those APIs.

Back in the day RightScale tried to do this but they consistently lagged support for AWS feature releases by upwards of 6 months making it a nonstarter (this was back when things like IAM and VPCs were just getting launched and critical features to make them usable were coming fast). CloudFoundry's approach is to provide an API to run everything on top of a compatible hypervisor control plane API - the lowest common denominator.
I think if time on page and average session metrics suggested that's what people wanted, that's what we would see. It's like complaining about how the news reports on inane stuff.

Anyone who's worked on the PGP project would be the first to tell you that PGP does not and cannot encrypt the email's metadata (to/from, subject, timestamps, etc).

All PGP does is encrypt the inner message body. All of the metadata that TLAs love to analyze is sent in the clear (at best inside a TLS connection, although the SMTP protocol unfortunately makes it incredibly easy for well-positioned network attackers to downgrade these connections to in the clear)

Of course you can. You can go live in the woods and nobody will come look for taxes. Or, change countries.
fn punch_card() -> impl std::fmt::Debug {

This is a function that returns some type that implements Debug. Not specifically named.

The rest of it is a combination of two syntaxes: .. and ..=

These are both ranges. The former exclusive, the latter inclusive. You can write something like 1..5 (or 1..=5) to get a range from 1 to 5 inclusive/exclusive, but you can also leave the start or end off: 2.. will give you from 1 till the end, ..=5 will give you from the start to 4. This means that .. will give you the full range. It looks more normal when used in context:

fn main() {
let s = "some string";
let some = &s[..=4]; // you'd probably write ..5 but i wanted to show both syntaxes
let string = &s[5..];
let all = &s[..]; // a no-op here but useful if s were a String and you wanted 'all' to be a &str

println!("{}", some);
println!("{}", string);
}

prints "some" and then "string".

So, here's the tricky bit: you can overload what the range is over. They're not just for numbers. So:

fn main() {
let mut string = 'a'..='z';
let a = string.next();
let b = string.next();

println!("{:?}", a);
println!("{:?}", b);
}

prints "Some('a')" and then "Some('b')", because iterators return Options.

So... all of this means that, you can implement a range of ranges. And so this string builds up a ridiculous unbounded range of unbounded range of unbounded range of ...
The engine is multiplayer first because you don't have to write any special code to implement it. When you start a game, if you set maxplayers to something beyond 1, it's multiplayer automatically.

When you create entities in the engine, all you have to do is specify what fields you want networked, and the game engine automatically serializes deltas for you on that field as they change.

It takes care of more advanced field networking like prediction as well.

You focus on making things, not making them networkable. If you want that, you just say it's networked. That's it.

The truly cynical take is that they managed to take down Colonial's billing. In response, Colonial shut down the pipeline - because obviously delivering oil without getting paid is out of the question.

In the last two lectures (Potpourri, Q&A), they actually have a grad student that uses Emacs go over it as well. The TA that was in charge of the editor section was just a Vim user and he wanted to show what kind of things are possible with a highly configurable editor like Vim/Emacs, so he naturally was going to use what he was most comfortable with. He even mentions that Emacs is capable of doing pretty much everything that he goes over in his demo and that it's mostly a matter of personal preference.

Not only that, but even if one had someone else to watch the kids during that time, one couldn't go work from a coffee shop or whatever like one normally might, for a change of scenery or to avoid at-home distractions.
I haven't had many issues with it. My development cycle has normally involved getting the basic functionality of my program to work, then adding a UI layer over it with the GTK crate. In terms of how fast it is to prototype/iterate, I could very easily manipulate and edit the UI file in Glade, then rebuild the program in only a couple seconds to test the result.

>Frontend code moves too much and quick prototyping/iteration is more important than memory control.

You can have both, really: Rust makes a lot of compromises on it's debug builds, but it compiles lightning fast. As I said above, you can change your program and see how it looks in realtime by simply dropping "cargo run" into the shell. There's not much I can do for you here except tell you to see for yourself.
I'm really struck by the differences between Electron's website and Tauri's website. https://www.electronjs.org/ https://tauri.studio/

Tauri's website is way, way worse. Tauri uses unnecessary jargon where Electron's site uses simple, more direct language.

Electron:

> Build cross-platform desktop apps with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS

Tauri:

> Build smaller, faster, and more secure
desktop applications with a web frontend

"web frontend" vs. "JavaScript, HTML, and CSS"

Electron and Tauri have icons with labels.

Electron:

> Web technologies, Open Source, Cross Platform

> Automatic updates, Native menus & notifications, Crash reporting, Debugging & profiling, Windows installers

Tauri says:

> Brownfield, FLOSS, Bundle

> Security, Patterns, Cross-platform

https://tauri.studio/en/docs/about/intro

> Tauri is a toolkit that helps developers make applications for the major desktop platforms - using virtually any frontend framework in existence. The core is built with Rust and the CLI leverages Node.js making Tauri a genuinely polyglot approach to creating and maintaining great apps.

Electron doesn't have an equivalent "about" page, but instead has this paragraph on its home page:

> It's easier than you think: If you can build a website, you can build a desktop app. Electron is a framework for creating native applications with web technologies like JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. It takes care of the hard parts so you can focus on the core of your application.

"virtually any frontend framework" "polyglot" vs. "takes care of the hard parts"
Yeah, I understand this and agree with you. Compare one of the biggest oil pipelines in the country with one hospital, of course one will be worse than the other.

But if you instead compare 40% of the hospitals going offline VS 40% loosing access to gas, with similar conditions, I think the mortality will be higher by attacking hospitals. I think the government could probably somehow logistically ration oil if shit really hits the pan too, so essentials can keep running. Probably worse situation with hospitals, even though the military could probably help out there a bit.

That's why it's weird to not react when people are attacking hospitals, vs oil pipelines. But as said before in my other comment, maybe not too weird.

Order of magnitude memory reduction, not disk space, was the selling point last time I heard. And given how often I hear users complaining about memory consumption in Electron apps, I think that is something pretty attractive, if it pans out.

No. I'd rather work 6 days a week for >120% salary.

I like my work. I contribute to society by working - that's why I get paid, my work is worth something. Given more $, I can better provide for family (which includes freeing wife to focus 100% on family care & opportunities, rather than 20%).

To really make it work, keep the "normal" work at 5 days @ 100%, then another proportionally-paid day to work on deep technical debt: there is much in any codebase which really should be fixed/improved, but is too obtuse/obscure to convince management it needs time doing in place of any of other numerous tasks. Result is more than 20% increase in productivity, by warding off defects and friction.

Employer might want to review that option further in light of me spending that additional time anyway working a secondary job: better I spend more time (and get more $) focusing on extended work on same project, than being temporally & mentally unavailable.

Reducing my time & salary by 20% as suggested would mean wife would have to take on a full-time job, dropping her family time massively in return for little more than making up for my salary drop. I'd rather sacrifice a few of my own hours per week to better support family's time together.
Its 'pyramid structure', not inverted. It was used in newspapers for two reasons.

The first is because, yes it allows busy readers to access the most salient facts first. But secondly, and perhaps more importantly from the point of print newspaper production, it allowed subs to always cut from the bottom, without having to read the whole piece carefully...

Newspapers would go through several editions throughout the night as new stories came in or existing stories were expanded. What started life as a front page lead might find itself moved to page three and progressively shortened, possibly down to a 1 sentence news-in-brief NIB.

The pyramid style let subs always fit a story into the available space, simply by cutting everything progressively from the bottom.

This story in Wired is not a news story and is not written as a news story. It is a feature story and its construction follows different rules.

It's a very good feature story, in my opinion.

United States v. Verdugo-Urquidez, 494 U.S. 259 (1990), was a United States Supreme Court decision that determined that Fourth Amendment protections do not apply to searches and seizures by United States agents of property owned by a nonresident alien in a foreign country.
Wow. Perhaps I'm a Luddite but the article started well enough by interviewing an expert in the field (Omar Akbari, a molecular biologist whose lab works on genetic control technologies at the University of California, San Diego).

Uhmm ok so far - but then I read this
... "He is also a co-founder of Agragene, a biotech company"

Uhmm ok so no possible conflict of interest there then right? And I’m sure he is in a position to provide a non-biased analysis of the "Risks and Rewards" of the program. /s

A further quote at the end of the article has this from him ..
"We’re excited about this because we were able to eliminate the populations in experimental cages in the lab. And we think this technology might be a next-generation technology that can be used alongside the Oxitec technology. The outcome is very similar."

Well, that is doubly reassuring about his impartiality on the subject. /s

TFA then continues with the rather not-so re-assuring ... "The EPA has done its due diligence and tested many of the potential side effects of this technology." Uhmm yeah, the EPA have a great track record (rolls eyes). And the ‘many’ in that quote just gave me a ‘we tested a huge & bigly number of things’ vibe.

This sort of thing has been tried elsewhere and I’ve never heard of one being successful over the long term (5+ years). Sure, I’ve seen of a few reports at the 2 -3 year trial period exclaiming remarkable results but then everything sort of goes a bit quiet and some idle digging turns up either nothing or perhaps a local newspaper report about the trial being discontinued and not expanded to other areas.

I’m sure there must be at least some some trials that are able to demonstrate that this sort of approach works in the long term (10+ years) and if so if anyone here is aware of such research I would gladly take an idle read but so far all I’ve ever seen is the ‘ah – that was the OLD method, Our sooper-dooper new technology is absolutely gonna nail it this time’.

I mean on the one hand - if you don’t try you will never succeed or solve any problem. But the part of me that grew up watching insects morph in to super villains after landing in “green glowing gloop” would much rather that Scientific America had tried a little harder to find an expert to interview that was much more able to not feel any commercial, financial or academic pressure and was therefore much more likely to be able to provide an objective and nuanced opinion.

I mean – how on earth do you put the genie back in the bottle? Erect giant mosquito nets around the whole state?

> He proposed that the benefits outweighed the downsides

I thought it was self-evident. Killing someone innocent for the good of others is never acceptable; people are ends in themselves. This is a general precept in most ethical systems with the notable exception of Millian Utilitarianism. To be clear, I am not making an argument against justifiable self-defense, as that is almost always accepted as a different kind of situation.

Example: we allow people to be killed for the good of others as long as their death allows the survival of more people. This is the poster's argument distilled. As such, it would be morally justifiable to kill random people for their organs, as one person contains enough organs to keep dozens of people from dying. If you need a liver, and your neighbor needs a spleen, then there would be nothing wrong about abducting the first person you see, butchering them, and taking what you need.

This argument is essentially that we should allow people to be killed, harmed, maimed because the number of people it help would outnumber the number of people harmed. They are the same argument. They both treat people as means rather than ends.

There are many nations in the world where you can be brutally killed for being gay, or any number of other things which shows up in medical records. If we include imprisonment, the number rises. The cost isn't just "some people might get embarrassed". It's a lot more like "hundreds of thousands of people will be brutally murdered by others or their state".

It's the method that was employed successfully against Standard Oil as they were initially building their monopoly. Wildcatters would strike oil and look to dump their oil into the market, which would drop and or destabilize the price of oil. It was understood they could 'ransom' Standard Oil using this tactic and get sums far beyond what their operations would otherwise be worth. Rockefeller in his letters talks about buying up the worst possible operations, in rickety condition, for princely sums to prevent the wildcatters from tanking the price of oil by dumping supply. It apparently was quite the annoyance to the extremely frugal Rockefeller, the monopoly could more than afford it of course.

The competition EVs face is the number of miles per second you can insert into your gas car. EVs don't have to charge at the maximum possible theoretical speed, just get the ratio with gas cars down from the hours:minutes ratio that it is at now. If an EV could charge in 10-15 minutes, range anxiety would become a thing of the past, even if it could be done more quickly in theory.
The United States Department of Justice has not exactly been shy about charging operatives of foreign governments for their illegal activities online (e.g. OlympicDestroyer, Solarigate). As far as I've been able to determine, neither their prosecutors nor the FBI agents doing the investigating have had the problems you so colorfully describe. If it were the case that this type of moonlighting was happening, I think the FBI would have been bringing cases to court. That would constitute evidence.
