Getting drunk is not a "colonizers" thing, it's a human thing. People have been getting drunk for tens of thousands of years, all around the globe.
What opponent range does this assume? Does that not effect the playable hands?
Heck, even before that with the 867MHz 12" Powerbook G4. Pretty sure that thing is why I don't have children.
Can someone elaborate on the privacy concerns (e.g. with Amazon "becoming a pseudo-ISP")? It seems like most (if not all) of the network use would be Amazon devices anyway, which is data they already have. Additionally, as far as I know, Amazon isn't really in the business of selling ads or customer data, so they seem like they'd be relatively trustworthy (compared with, say Google, who's entire business is based off of selling ads, and also literally sell routers.) Is the concern just the threat that they could abuse this data? Is it just general "big company getting even bigger / having more data is bad" sentiment? Genuinely curious.

(The security concerns make sense to me -- most people and businesses assume their home network is closed, and this theoretically opens an attack vector. Asking specifically about privacy.)
You don't have to enter a specific jurisdiction. There are supply chain attacks, escalation through residential connections, existing international botnets, and a thousand other approaches. And of course, there's always someone out there ready to open an email which will own them.
By "computers" I assume you mean "phones and tablets", because Apple is still a small minority of the world's desktops and laptops.

Even then, ask yourself: Why do so many people pay $800 for an iPhone instead of $200 for some Android?

They didn't become #1 by selling $99 developer accounts.
Well there's one. If people tend to compile natively much more often than cross-compile, then it would make sense to spend time optimizing what benefits users.

- Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

- You have to take the shit with sugar.

- The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotion, and spends himself in a worthy cause; and if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that he’ll never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat. - Theodore Roosevelt

One who hides, wastes this short life addicted to screen distractions, actively avoids everyone, and misses-out on life for their lack of backbone has a name: coward. It's better actually that they stay inside so others don't have to waste their time on disappointments from people who aren't reciprocal, social, or respectable.
what 'alternative opinion' is it that you are championing?
Swapping out the persistence layer in prod vs dev is one of the topics covered by the article, for the reasons you mention.
Because they probably don’t need to eat.
They're decent, and definitely towards the top of the pack of non-alcoholic beer brands. Clausthaler is also ok if you prefer a lager to an ale.

The 2019 macbook ironically had better heat dissipation than the previous generations, but it's still pretty bad.

We can blame Apple for using chips that are too intense for their laptops, and we can blame Intel for making garbage chips that can't really perform in real world cases while spending a decade not bothering to innovate. Apple at least is moving away from Intel as a result of all of this, and I'm really impressed with how well the M1 transition has been going.
They explain this in Lucifer by attributing Lucifer's higher tolerance to his demigod status, but it's... kind of a problem, especially for the not-deities who are seemingly always at his club, getting shitfaced.
Doesn't this work out a bit like MongoDB, where Amazon forked a version released before they replaced the GPL with their own license? Meaning the freedoms of the GPL will be withheld, no?

>is suddenly a capital offense because...Whoppers might run out?

We know the stakes are much higher. We all know there have been attacks on hospitals, law enforcement systems, government agencies, infrastructure companies, etc. And, we know that none of us have a clue where the next attack will be.

>and stupid legacy cruft that is modern software development

Yes, modern software development is stupid, crufty and all of those things. But, these are actual attacks by actual actors, not some self-imploding poor designs. In many cases, these attacks are state-sanctioned, if not outright state-sponsored. So, of course they should be treated just as we treat other attacks. And, under what other scenario do we respond to an attack by declaring "Oh, you got us. We should have better protected that".

These are clear national security threats and should, accordingly, be subject to the full range of responses as any other threats. That includes deterrence. It doesn't necessarily mean dropping bombs. But, it does mean more than blaming ourselves.

>Diddling around in the network of a company you didn’t know existed until five minutes ago

I'd wager there are many companies that the average person has never heard of that, if knocked offline, would result in considerable disruption, economic costs, and even physical danger to a significant portion of the population.
Vaccines, Lies and Smears
The grandparent correctly described France in 1945. Today (2021) they're trying to sort out the paternity of 200,000+ children born to French women and German soldiers.

The French Resistance glamorized in Hollywood movies only seriously erupted after Germany ordered that all able-bodied French men and women be enslaved. Then they had nothing to lose.
Heh. Reminds me of a public debate a few years ago about forcing porn platforms to securely verify the age of their users. I think a government member said something like "We could use FranceConnect (the government SSO service) for authentication in these cases".

Needless to say, people were not enthused.
No, articles are usually not aggressive towards another country; light criticism could be found here and there, but not focused on the US.

The articles are e.g. about China becoming a leader in this/that economy sector. Focus topics seem to be (as far as I remember, been there in 2019 last):

- Progress and positive effects of the Belt and Road initiative
- Massive infrastructure projects in mainland China - railway
- Fighting pollution - stories about new regulations, violations and their prosecution
- Fighting corruption - stories about prosecution of corruption
- Aspiring economy sectors in China - domestic airplane development
- Joint ventures with technology leaders - like research centers
- Cooperation with other countries
- Messages of the CCP and the president himself - perfected message control

Sure. Modern warfare is still war but Im saying no sane general and his chiefs are out here drafting documents on how best to take women prisoners. That nonsense can be pursued by militias is some backwater asscrack not a proper army. That's why I said as a military objective.
one of the most problematic things ive encountered is the tendency to put bike racks out of sight away from people as they are aesthetically unpleasing, and in the way.

i often resort to chaining it up to the lampost immediately closest to the front door or the security stand whatever is closer.

> Ballistic missiles are things like ICBMs, there it doesn't matter if you miss by a couple of miles. Hypersonic missiles are fast enough to make ship movement a negligible factor, ship are slow.

The hypersonic missiles are like ICBMs though. They operate similarly and enter the atmosphere before coming back down. They’re not nuclear weapons where you can be close enough, they have to be accurate. A miss by 3 feet jug as well be a miss by a mile.

As the missile enters the atmosphere it only has a few seconds to course correct to hit a moving ship. The ship can potentially move just out of harms way. Not the most likely scenario but definitely plausible.

> All other anti-ship missiles are guided. How bad that can end was shown in the Falkland war, the Royal Navy suffered quite a lot from Argentinian Exocets. Bought from France.

Different kinds of missiles. Can’t really compare them.

> A F-35 is what, 35 million dollar plus, excluding the pilot and training cost? Missiles are cheaper, by order of magnitude.

Not sure that these particular missiles are. I think it’s likely they’re closer to $20mm-$30mm in cost. Plus all of the ones China has are basically R&D missiles and not proven.

Yes, you got it, Fischer-Yates shuffle via lodash. Here's their implementation: https://github.com/lodash/lodash/blob/master/shuffle.js
In my 20+ year career as a web developer and software engineer, I have never ONCE had to merge two sorted arrays as part of my job.

If you asked me that question in a whiteboard interview without access to my favorite IDE, a REPL, or google, there is a good possibility that I would fail to impress you.

Never mind the fact that I have been involved with the development of multiple highly successful, multi-million dollar projects where I wrote massive portions of the codebase.

At my current company, they didn't give me a code test or anything like that. They just gave me a small project as contract work (migrating some of their infrastructure to the cloud). I knocked it out, they paid me for the work, and then they hired me full time. I've been here for two and a half years and the CEO once publicly stated that hiring me was one of the best things the previous CTO ever did.
I'm German, and I'd consider drinking 2-3 glasses of wine plus a glass cognac a day quite much.

> Take it to the extreme of an LSD trip, you can get something out of it that you can't get any other way. You take a day to mentally dig into your psyche and cut through so many of your mental ruts, while having some crazy hallucinations.

Maybe. I'm unconvinced that this is the only way to achieve any kind of insight. In particular I'd be surprised if it outperforms a cup of coffee or a rhapsodical conversation for any type of insight.

> your framing of "escaping or distorting reality" is founded on a trust that your senses and current mental processes are objective reality and that reality is desirable.

How can a high be "more real" than what you perceive through your senses? That seems almost incorrect by definition, so I guess I plead guilty to the charge of believing that sober experiences are more real.

With respect to "I'm assuming that reality is desirable"--yeah, if you think reality isn't desirable, then you're escaping, so I think you're [agreeing violently][0] with me here. I am guilty of the charge that I think escapism is bad and confronting reality is good.

How's it different than running things with pure docker or before docker? There were backups and no downtime deployments before docker became a thing... docker compose is already a layer above docker (but really just docker).
I think your point is that copyleft creates extra value because those extending it are incentivized to contribute their extensions. But in the case of gcc as compared to llvm, permissive licensing looks to be at least as successful. An issue with copyleft that you need to commit to providing the source beforehand. If you are allowed to choose afterwards, you don’t need to ask in advance, and it’s easier to make the case that upstreaming your patches is in the organization’s best interest.

And yes I know copyleft only requires only providing code to your users, but in practice the organization assumes that means the distribution can’t be enforced.
Fantastic!

I've been wanting to build and play on a "open world" deck of cards game.

Apple have at least 13 years experience.
Some cross-compilation may need some emulation to fold constant expressions. For example if you want to write code using 80 bit floats for x86 and cross-compile on a platform that doesn’t have them, they must be emulated in software. The cost of this feels small but one way to make it more expensive would be also emulating regular double precision floating point arithmetic when cross compiling. Obviously some programs have more constant folding to do during compilation than others.
For now but when the tech gets better why not target better will be heard from thr adtech companies.
It can work, as that's exactly what Snowflake has done and it's one of the fastest-growing SaaS companies today.

A good product is more valuable than a partnership.
Why couldn’t they restore from backup?
How about running CineBench R23 and a GPU workload continuously for an hour? I'm willing to bet it will throttle. That little chip you have there is not only a CPU. It's also a GPU. Utilizing half of it's function and then saying it doesn't throttle is not that impressive. Still there are many Intel laptops that throttle even by going half power.

What laptop do you have? If it's a gaming or workstation laptop those are generally much better cooled then thin & lights like macbook pros.

I imagine some grazing land could be converted, but I do think most of it is used for grazing because that's about all it's good for. My family used to graze a small herd on land that could /almost/ be used to grow grain (with lots of chemical help), but definitely not vegetables.
I think you misrepresent the human App Store reviewers as not being a service they provide to their users.
The bottom area is the "hand", cards placed there are only visible to each individual player.

Depression magnifies emotional and physical pain.

Lack of recent exposure also makes people weak. They need to get back in practice or it's like they're skipping the gym to veg-out on the couch with Netflix, weed, and a case of Doritos.

If you want to up your social-pain threshold, say "hello" strangely to 200 random people.
Removing L3 frees up transistors to be spent on L1/L2. On a modern processor the vast majority of transistors are spent on caches.

Why this might help, ultimately, because the latency for getting something from L1 or L2 is a lot lower than the latency from L3 or main memory.

That said, this could hurt multithreaded performance. L1/2 are used for 1 core in the system. L3 is shared by all the cores and a package. So if you have a bunch of threads working on the same set of data, having no L3 would mean doing more main memory fetches.

Drunk Discord channels have re-created a lot of the missing "socialization" aspect of bar life I missed during the pandemic.

I'm... not sure it's a good thing, but it was an interesting/unanticipated development. I don't think the author should be so quick to dismiss "Zoom" drinking! UX matters in this space, in a weird way.
Not to dismiss the hard work the engineers at apple put in but China and Russia hasn't poached as many engineers over the years as Apple has.
“The internet interprets censorship as damage and routes around it”

Even if you physically firewalled every connection into a country all it takes is one little node connected via RF (satellite, HF, etc) dropped near an open WiFi hotspot.

Occam's razor says that the most likely reason for this is that a ransomware group knew that they could extort a lot of money from this company.
> For instance, there is no need for factories classes when a language supports passing functions as arguments of other functions and closures.

C++ supports passing functions as arguments and closures yet factories are often necessary, how else are you creating new objects from dynamically loaded plug-ins ?
> There are supply chain attacks

Yes, some relatively slow, difficult, and expensive attacks would of course still be viable. That does not mean that, "it wouldn't change anything in practice."

> escalation through residential connections, existing international botnets

Right—so how are you going to talk to your botnet from outside the target sub-Internet when it won't even route packets you send it, except maybe to some hardened commerce-and-propaganda-only subnet that may have limited or no connection to the rest of the target state/bloc's Internet (and again, even that part existing is a maybe)?
A lot of folks work like mad in tech to build up a small nestegg and then go pursue a passion. Starting with a food truck is a great way to suss out and ease into eventually owning and running restaurants. It's like the MVP of a cuisine/restaurant idea.
Truework | Software Engineer, Engineering Manager, Data Analyst | San Francisco, CA | Full time | Onsite | https://www.truework.com/careers/

Truework is hiring a product-oriented senior software engineer, and engineering manager (EM), and a data analyst to help overhaul employment and income verification in the United States.

Banks and background check providers often request employment and income data from your current and former employers to approve mortgages and loans or complete pre-employment screening. Your employer likely shares important details about your employment, including your title, job duration, and wages, with third party credit agencies to fulfill these requests. Unfortunately, this process is not transparent for employees and can be slow and error-prone for employers and verifiers.

Truework is building a modern employment and income verification platform to give employees visibility and control into how their employment information is shared with others. We are growing quickly and currently handle thousands of verifications every month, which has enabled the approval of billions of dollars in loans and helps employees in regulated professions (e.g. nursing) start work more quickly than before.

Our team is still small, which means you’ll play big a part in shaping the future of Truework, and your work will have a significant impact and visibility. We are a Django and React (Typescript) shop, and run our infrastructure on AWS.

If you’re interested or want to know more about working at Truework, send me a note at (my HN username)@truework.com.

What I wish I knew before starting a Startup
I've received an ARPA-E award. So a similar process and competition level.

First you submit a 5 page concept paper, and if that's acceptable you write a 20 page full proposal (answering the Heielmeier Catechism in detail[0]). If you're selected (around 1-5% acceptance rates) you go through a contracting process--overall it takes about 1 year from initial concept paper to final contract.

Once everything's signed you're executing on a 2-3 year and $1-5 million project where you have to hit technical milestones each quarter. And if you're in the top 10% of projects that were funded by the agency that year you can except follow-on funding at about the same level.

I had issues with self-confidence and it helped me relax. Sitting alone in a coffee shop felt a lot easier with a smoke, going out with girls I felt easier going with a cigarette in my hand, I and my boys would go out for weekends and destroy two packs each.

I believe that it became a triggering addiction in certain social situations.

And even now when I talk about it I can feel that first drag and the buzz in your head.

It might be glorified and 'cool' but it is the worst addiction there is definitely, just because it is legal.
