Mapbox certainly has been challenging. I read over a lot of code I found through GitHub search to figure out the overlays, and then went down a big rabbit hole trying to improve the rendering performance without much to show for it — I still think the way we render the overlays is a performance issue, but it could also be that Mapbox loads an entire webgl rendering engine with a lot of features we don't need.

Longer term we'll probably move to OpenLayers + OpenStreetMap because Mapbox data is out of our budget by about 2 orders of magnitude.

After looking up the author's background, it appears she accomplished this in California back in the 70s.

I'm not sure if this is still possible because the minimum age to take the GED in CA is now at 18+. The alternative to that is to take the California High School Proficiency Exam (CHSPE) which requires a minimum age of 16+.

Yeah, we already switch to Gitlab for code review. But the task management utility in Phabricator are far superior to Gitlab, so it's a bit complicated to switch to Gitlab for now.

There has been three big reasons why we are trying to switch from phab to Gitlab:

* Upstream wasn't very interested in external contributions or hearing our suggestions

* arcanist was a real pita to use for new contributors. Switching to gitlab really increased the number of occasional contributors.

* Setting up CI with Phabricator to run on Diff (the Phabricator equivalent to merge request) was not easy.
I think people would take this more seriously and engage with it more deeply if you posted the technology white paper, rather than asking for people to sign up for it. There are I'm sure details I'm missing, but Firecracker startup (for instance) is very fast; so, for that matter, is vanilla gvisor.
Yeah, I thing that movie is the best rendition of a PKD novel I have ever seen, partly because it is so weird, and partly because it captures some of the black humour of the novel.
I came back to the office this week - I was very much dreading it. The long drive, the in-person BS, etc. While it’s not been as bad as I may have thought, your words here have been a worthwhile lens to view the return and why I continue to enjoy this particular job.

Thanks.
I didn't mean it as a criticism, I just think its amusing that any time in the US if someone talks about unionising or workers rights - chants of "that's communism" begin. The workers have been so programmed to not stand up for themselves it has become a tragedy.

It seems ironic that the country that devised "no taxation without representation" requires approval from a state and federal authority for them to adequately receive culturally aligned representation that a majority of constituents desire.

Every day it astounds me that the US still exists as a governing entity. It doesn't feel like a nation capable of adapting to times like these and is getting a stronger fist by the week. Every day I compare china to the US and think the only difference is instead of the government wanting to imprison me, it's other people wanting to sue or libel me. My rights only exist "potentially" in court even if it's an amendment right. It feels like a gangrenous bandaid that desperately needs to be torn off, but nobody wants to do it because it'll hurt too much.
Thanks for the feedback! We are still trying to figure out the business model.
I'm afraid I still don't understand the workflow. I continually rebase my branch(es) on top of upstream.

At any time, I can choose to consolidate a few of my WIP commits into a more (logically) cohesive commit and keep that around for further rebasing.

I must be missing something here, but I'm not sure what.

(If it helps understanding, we work with Gerrit which basically expects a 'list of patches' on top of the branch you want to commit your changes to. So that's already part of our mentality, but we just use plain git.)

Misdiagnosis can go either way, not always in favour of covid.

Early trends showed severe undercounting when later compared to excess mortality, probably due to low testing capacity at the start. See here for some more information on the undercounting: https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/coronavirus-excess-...

Perhaps, but that doesn't fundamentally change my argument. Those people can keep driving if they like it but for everyone else it can still free up time and thus be counted towards the benefits.

They still have something like this in Ohio, it’s called College Credit Plus:

http://education.ohio.gov/Topics/Ohio-Education-Options/Coll...

It’s available through quite a few schools now i believe. My oldest only had half days her senior year in high school and entered college with enough credits to be a sophomore. It’s not particularly revolutionary but a nice option.
Funny, I only feel depressed when I wake up early.
In the US, typically:

- you are assigned a school and changing schools varies from moderately difficult to impossible

- kids under 16 cannot get to any high school other than their assigned one because they can’t drive (and at 16 they’d need a car, which not everyone can afford)

- everyone HAS to be in school all day. It’s day care so parents can work.

What you described in Slovenia sounds much better. It sounds like college in the US: people are there because they want to be there. High School in the US is just… a mess. There are people who think the point is to perform in the school band, or on the sports team, or in cheerleading etc. There are people who think the point is to hang out and have friends. There are people who think there is no point. And there are a few who think the point is to learn.

Schools very a lot and in a place this big you can find all kinds of schools, but from everyone I’ve known the typical experience is academically a waste of time, and people’s feelings about High School are almost entirely determined by how many friends they had and thus how much fun they thought it was.

On the contrary, I think most teachers would be pretty happy if their least-motivated students left and never came back.

In some classes of 20, having the right 2-3 kids out sick can mean you cover 30% more material on a given day, and everyone has a more pleasant time, too.
Although they do still work long hours, there is a now a law prohibiting residents from being worked over 80 hours per week. It's called the "Libby Zion Law." The law is in place because of a famous malpractice lawsuit due to a resident physician that administered pethidine when the patient was already on phenelzine, causing her to die. This caused a fatal drug interaction that the resident should have understood was deadly.

I like it too. I do wonder about the health effects; you end up consuming a lot of sodium by drinking baking soda. I see in one of the studies they gave patients 8 grams of baking soda a day, which is more than you'd need to relieve heartburn. But, the study doesn't mention sodium and the effect on blood pressure at all, nor is it a long-term study.

I think that as terrible as chewing chalk is, calcium is better than sodium.

Having read virtually every scifi book that PKD wrote, and some straight fiction by him as well, I'd have to say that for my taste he was at his best when he was writing straight scifi, and the more scifi there is in what he wrote the better it's likely to be.

While I'd agree that Ubik is a great introduction to the PKD universe, I would also classify it as his best book. I also love many of his other books, but to me none of them are as strong or consistently good as Ubik. Some of them have great parts, though, so I definitely wouldn't stop at Ubik, but I've yet to read a better book by him, or even one that was just as good.
Not helpful in what? And what is it that I'm missing, or misjudging?
Anyone that wants a "happy ending" and less paranoid PKD-like book should take a look at "The Lathe Of Heaven", which I have always thought of as Ursula Le Guin does PKD (of whom she was a huge fan).
From a teachers perspective, the problem with cheating is that it doesn't help me help you. Especially if you are cheating from the get-go, it can take a while before I notice it and by then it might be too late.

Tests are supposed to be assessments, not some sort of trial-by-question or student ranking system. (Whether a particular teacher/school treats them that way is another discussion). If your assessment shows that you know 20% of the material, then I can help you learn (at least some of) the other 80%. However, if you know 20% of the material but cheat your way to an 80% on the assessment, then I will try to help you with the last 20% assuming you know the 60% of the content that you cheated on. At best that will end up with you knowing 40% of the material, but more likely you won't be able to learn much more than the 20% you already knew because I won't have the information to approach the content correctly for you.

And in the next unit, that missing 80% will compound and you'll learn even less. (I teach Computer Science... so imagine trying to learn for-loops if you don't really know how to declare/initialize variables)

So, cheating really only hurts yourself. You will be one of those people that doesn't get the job, or gets fired. But you could have been someone that was successful at the job if you had been honest on the assessments and got the help you needed when you needed it. (Similarly, I think guessing on assessments is a bad idea, because it can hide misunderstandings from the teacher and the student)
This sounds extremely cursed but I still expect the actual impact is ridiculously minimal.

For most (>75%) of households it will be a under two dozen megabytes. For urban dwellers who see a lot more devices pass them by, I'd back-of-napkin estimate 99.9% will see under 100MB.

It's a feel-bad situation, but this IS an example of the press riding what ought to be a non-issue. This really isn't much of a problem.

Alas Amazon is also not doing themselves any favors. There doesn't seem to be any visibility afforded to those whose networks they are using. There's no charts, no bandwidth used, nothing. Amazon seems content to just take. I really think Amazon's ask here is very small, especially/at least for the first couple years, and I'm even ok with them just taking- net bandwidth will look like a firmware update or two- but there should at least be some respect, some visibility into what is happening, somewhere.

Without being able to see anything, no one is fit to judge whether it's a problem or not. By just taking, by not making a view, Amazon is turning a non-issue into a real issue.
Although I haven't personally tried it, I have friends outside of the US that rave about Sensodyne Repair & Protect original with the "Powered by NovaMin" badging. NovaMin is composed of special ceramic particles that coat the teeth with a compound that reacts with the saliva to form a durable physical barrier.

The problem is that the stuff with NovaMin is not typically available in the US. I just searched Amazon and found that they do sell small tubes of the real thing for about $14 each. Looks like it is coming from Canada.

BitTorrent Creator's 'Green' Cryptocurrency Accused of Burning Through SSDs
I did a poor job describing it, but it was not just the technological side that struck me.

I'll try again (and might still fail): If I look at the 70s, e.g. watch a movie or a TV show that takes place in the 70s, or is even from the 70s, it feels like... the modern world for me. Yeah, fashion is whacky, technology was primitive, but overall it's actually "the modern world with whacky fashion and primitive technology".

When I read Ubik and the various decades before the 60s were described, it felt like different ages. The point about the pharmacy is not just the wood and brass and the medicine in jars, it's that the wood and the brass was made into intricate decor, including ornaments and statues, and that the pharmacist looked extraordinarily official.

My experience is that most Americans love students and coworkers from other countries.

As a community driven, open source company, resource allocation is determined through community feedback. As mentioned in another post, reCaptcha has been used for anti-abuse in Proton since 2014. The community cares about this, but it's never been the highest voted item [1].

However, it's something our team cares about. That's why 6 months ago, we started preparing to migrate to hcaptcha, even though removing reCaptcha wasn't the most pressing community demand. This work is on track to be completed in the next few weeks. We are sure that after we switch to hcaptcha, on the community voting forum, there will be a "do not use hcaptcha" suggestion, which will then start to collect votes. When it collects enough votes, we will duly allocate resources towards building our own captcha, because that's what it means to be a community driven company.

>“We live in a society that is designed for morning people, and evening people often feel as if they are in a constant state of misalignment with that societal clock,” said Daghlas.

This certainly resonates with me...I've long been quite a night owl, very much so in my teens (with long periods where I was sleeping from 5am to 1pm if left to my own devices) and much less so now in my 30s, but each transition–to college or more flexible jobs–that gave me more control over my schedule and when my days would start also coincided with feeling a lot better about myself.

It is not an exaggeration in the slightest to say that many people will treat you badly, joke about you and mock you to your face if you have trouble getting out of bed before 9 or 10am. I thankfully never struggled with depression around it and have had very flexible work schedules, but I can totally appreciate how the circumstances of being someone whose sleep schedule doesn't line up with society's expectations can really wear on a person.

The bigger problem is finding a hosting provider that hasn't had their entire space blacklisted.

For that, you're likely going to have to pick a "responsible" provider, have a couple of rounds of back and forth with them to prove you're neither an idiot nor a spammer, and ask them to manually open the port for you. And they're going to demand something that will tie to identity.

Sleep deprivation is a common (and well studied) way to deal with depression in the short term.
The abstract just says people genetically inclined to wake up early are less likely to have major depressive disorder.

I would use it in production. It just depends on what I'm producing. "Production" can range from everything like a banking website serving millions (nope) to a kids toy (yup).

There are a ton of uses where performance doesn't matter, and some where data is even ephemeral or non-critical. These sorts of simple tools are also really nice for test cases, development environments, and a ton of other uses.

I'm developing a tool designed for large-scale data processing, and I have a dummy back-end very similar to this which I use for development.

My computer has close to 4GHz and multiple cores. Essentially anything which ran on an 80486 back in the day will be fast enough in interpreted Python. That's actually a lot of stuff.
