Since most of these self-righteous comments below still have no idea what they're talking about. The site was for overflow of vaccines that were going unused & being thrown out. The Oakland Coliseum is one of these mega-sites. So many of you don't understand the on-the-ground realities of the communities you're speaking of where I live. I see my neighbors and when FEMA is running these sites they know their goals. It's not unethical to follow the guidelines and get jabbed. Also the line was most exclusively healthy adults coming in from all around California. Clearly I didn't invite 800 people myself from a deleted post on an internal forum.

Also on the Monday before the FEMA agents were telling me they had less people than vaccines, Tuesday they barely covered the people with vaccines, and Wednesday (when I got it) onwards they had slightly more demand when they asked people to tell their friends.

It's up to governments to enforce rules around their clinics instead of moral crusaders that live across the country with no on-the-ground experience to tweet an internal post to generate outrage.

Here are articles around why there was so few people getting vaccinated in our area and why FEMA requested us ask our friends to show up.

I recommend getting a subscription to something like oreilly.com so you can get access to official books and videos from vendors to go through the following certification material. As what you are wanting to do is not covered in introductory courses or covered in depth enough with the free options and you will need the good stuff in order to be able to be confident and not mess things up very badly.
https://www.oreilly.com/

Key here will be to go through the material and study it, and implement what you learned. You can sit for the actual exams if you want at a later time. These will give you an expert foundation as if you mess it up you could cause an outage and require someone else to come in and do the work for you. Though if you do find yourself overwhelmed it is probably best to have a consultant come in and do this for you instead as this could be outside your current capabilities and experience. It is best as a growing engineer to know when you don't know something or acknowledge something being out of your depth and asking for help vs taking on something too big for you at the time and failing hard for it. It is also easier to move forward and gain trust of your company to have someone else that is experienced in this type of work come in and take care of it quickly vs trying to learn all of this in a short time and increase the of risk factor of project failure. Either way this should be a great learning experience and the following should help you out with it.

Physical colocation hardware and networking:

CCNP

- Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR)

- Implementing Cisco Enterprise Advanced Routing and Services (ENARSI)

CCNP Security

- Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (SCOR)

- Implementing Secure Solutions with Virtual Private Networks (SVPN)

AWS Networking Connectivity and Administration Baseline

- AWS SysOps Administrator

- AWS DevOps Engineer

- AWS Advanced Networking Speciality

This will give you the strong baseline to understand how to:
Properly setup a secure Point to Point VPN connection between AWS and your colocation or how to use VPC endpoint AWS PrivateLink and Direct connect setup between AWS and your colo along with setting up your colo to properly and securely router the desired traffic to the third party and be confident that it is actually secure and reliable.
I thought it was perfectly reasonable. "Less" doesn't mean "zero", and in the normal case this story would be downweighted way off the front page.
Billion is the only commonly used quantity that starts with B. Grand is slang, that may not be known to non Native American English speakers.
Its not the first time you've been caught in a lie, dang.

But folks, this is the secret hackernews site, called BookFace. This is the site that the event happened. Its also a nice site to conspire with other YC companies and YC itself as a cohesive market 'strategy'.

https://bookface.ycombinator.com/

And according to sam altman (sama), https://twitter.com/sama/status/631874706543480832 . Fun to read through here.. "invaluable resource in helping us work through problems and tap the YC network for advice"...

Other secrets that HN/dang/pg don't want you to know is that founders can see each other with special flairs here. Of course, conspiring on BookFace also helps too.
I think younger workers bought the lifestyle pitch of their employer hook, line, and sinker. They see the office (virtual or otherwise) as a part of their identity.
My main confusion from the title was trying to figure out who "Lol" was and why "Lol" got kicked out.

Took me a few minutes to realize it was LOL.
GP probably should avoid shopping on the 1st in the US too. Be a shame to run into those EBT people. They hold up the line with coupons also.

I'm still debating the merits of growing up on a Rez versus how I see my fellow humans.
"Critical" reminds me of the urgency every new feature request receives in the backlog.
Super easy solution. Just stop triggering yourself by going on LinkedIn. Ask yourself: what are you actually gaining from going on there?
By and large it’s a useless social network. Nobody, and I mean Nobody will ever be offended that you don’t like or read whatever they are posting on there. They won’t even notice. In fact, the more “likes” or “comments” a post gets.. the less they will notice that any particular person didn’t engage.
You aren’t going to miss the career opportunity of a lifetime by not going on there. The recruiters are just spamming people based off keywords (put the word Kubernetes on your LinkedIn page and see how many clueless recruiters instantly message you).
I barely go on it and my career continues just fine.
Chances are you will hear about the important life events of your actual real friends through some other channel such as email, text, or even, gasp by talking to them in real life.
PS, you can do this for any social network.
The Freedom Box
You can definitely see how deep the DoF was in the shots in the article; it makes sense that Widener was more concerned about the shutter speed than the focus. I was just arguing that the zone/hyperfocal focus techniques just wouldn't be very useful here, considering he's far enough away and using an SLR. Close quarters with a manual rangefinder and "f8 and be there" would suffice.
Yes, I am saying the lab leak hypothesis was not widely censored in social media. I saw plenty of it.
I guarantee that if Amazon was a physical retail location it would look exactly the same.
k is short for kilo, the SI prefix for 1,000. It makes sense that anything with prefix k or kilo is 1,000 of that, and it’s known globally. Grand is American English slang.

Also, the dollar sign prefix tells you you’re talking about money. And M is for million.
Jet was an acquisition though. I get they tried to keep some of its "upscale" shine but they eventually shuttered it for their own online offering.

Walmart has Sams Club.

Have you used the Walmart grocery pickup? It is seriously great, with its own app flow both on mobile and browser. They have been rolling this for years, even in rural markets. It is most of what you have described, complete with store redesigns on the side of the building with covered parking for pick up. Maybe it is regional, but is crushing the southeast.

Getting rid of poor people in a Walmart is a crazy statement, that you should probably edit out.

I agree on the easier website experience for Walmart only as vendor for delivery, but they do have a walmart instock section on the website, which allows you to browse up to the minute stocks and order them for pickup or delivery same day or next.

Your party example is exactly what Walmart Grocery Pickup is.
I mean, a bullshit job is someone who spends their entire workday in meetings, answering e-mails and generating reports. None of which is useful if it isn't actually in support of _real_ work.

If you were to mediate conflicts all day between super talented, but very quarrelsome, experts: that's useful work. If you spend your entire day mediating conflicts between mediocre developers bikeshedding over logging frameworks, a topic that only came up because of nihysim: that's a bullshit job. Those developers are not useful, and neither are you.

I've used both Instacart and Walmart delivery because I don't have a car and live ~3miles from the nearest supermarket.

In my experience, Instacart has worked very well: the only issues (2-hour delivery window, tip for delivery) are upfront, but I rarely get messed up / late / bad orders. The website is also great.

The only time I used Walmart, my delivery was rescheduled to the next day, something which never happened with 50+ Instacart deliveries. And the website sucks.
That would be confusing with T for trillion.

Information you think is wrong isn’t “fake news”. Please don’t be so hyperbolic. It’s akin to calling someone a liar.
The funny part is Walmart is paying better wages here than any competitor in retail space.
I really, really wish Zig had RAII. I am so used to this in C++ and have grave difficulty living without it. But it has been shot down as RAII is considered a high-level feature. Well, I guess I will admire the language from a distance but I am unlikely to use it practically.

Walmart gets a lot of flak for being old school and allowing Amazon's rise, but they are one of the very few retailers who have actually been able to respond to competitive threats over the last decade or two. Walmart Labs has some great tech and hires top software talent in the industry. They aren't shy about making large acquisitions when needed (like Jet). They have built out their own delivery and logistics network and now offer 2 day, 1 day or same day shipping. They even have their own "Prime" subscription and grocery deliveries.

The business could easily have gone the way of Sears.
I think the CEO who encourages emotionally charged political activism at the office will fail, and rightfully so.
At least for me, Walmart is just a vehicle for the Waltons to extract wealth from the country. I suppose if Walmart divested themselves from the Waltons and adopted some sort of pro-employee policies I might shop there more frequently.
I meant more that no matter what was said, someone would take offense.

I'm not so sure about that.

Smartphones are a massive leap forward in low-power/energy-efficiency, but my 2013 desktop machine (KGPE-D16) still creams every smartphone ever manufactured on any metric other than power consumption.

I'm kinda tired of hearing nontechnical people congratulate themselves on having a "supercomputer" in their pocket.
Turns out human beings are complicated. Individual differences are greater than the statistical differences between groups. It's odd that many of the loudest voices that vilify discrimination will often wield it to great effect, counterproductively against a project of shared humanity
Link to that tweet?
I know Clojure well enough to call BS on that claim. Unless you compare what they do with the worst possible incompetent alternative.
I've never used ksh-style coprocesses so I'd be interested to hear about some use cases for them, and what you like about them. Examples would be even better -- I've never seen them, and I've looked at a lot of shell.

Bash has a different implementation of coprocesses that doesn't seem to be used much, and is very limited. I believe there can only be one coprocess active at a time, which is very un-shell-like! I got an e-mail once from someone who was using them, and I felt it could be achieved by other means.

I have a good idea coprocesses in Oil which basically is a startup time optimization. The coprocess will basically take argv over a unix domain socket, and have other commands to change the process state. It solves "the problem of VMs and containers that start slowly".

https://www.oilshell.org/blog/2021/04/release-0.8.9.html#wha...

Unix domain sockets are already used for the headless shell in Oil (more coming on the blog about that)

No matter how you try to present it, you know very well that you were not eligible, and you still went ahead and skipped the line.

Using passwords instead of certs in VPN that provides access to internal network is just to say it clearly stupid.

Apparently morons working there, so, they deserved for it.
While there are many meaningful advantages and benefits from working with other people in a common area, very little of those benefits are passed on to people who simply don’t want to be there.

Forcing people who would prefer to work from home is mostly to the benefit of those that thrive in a social environment. Extraverts that have benefited from the status quo will largely want to return to it, regardless of any particular employee’s inclinations to stay working from home.

I don’t think “leaving it up to the employee” is necessarily the best option, either. You’re creating problems potentially in either circumstance.

For a corporation as large as Apple it seems foolish to make a policy like this company-wide when it’s pretty clear that individual teams should probably make this decision as a group.
Well that nuance certainly escaped me. I suppose we can safely capitalize LOL in accordance with the site guidelines :)
Wow, I just checked and you're right. I find it fascinating that all of this modern software continues to support JPEG 2000 in such a buggy state. Or maybe it's the file itself that's corrupted? I don't know enough about the file format to say.
Why would YC care about that? Their ethos is “how to make a boatloat of money”.

Theranos would be fine if they weren’t caught out before their IPO.
By this stupid statement, if 1% of the population was killed every day, you could still say it is safe for a while.

Safe doesn’t just mean “not killed”. There are many kinds of victimization.
They're all terrible; as a customer I actually love the way they abuse their vendors - Walmart is not going to be happy a lot of returns on your product, they'll just find another vendor. It's like the anti-Amazon, everything I buy from Walmart works well. If both Amazon and Walmart are slime, I'm going to Walmart.

None of that is secret much less anything anybody "don't want you to know."
Yeah.

> Furthermore, those who work in clerical and administrative jobs are far less likely to view their jobs as useless than those who are employed in roles that Mr Graeber regarded as essential, such as refuse collection and cleaning.

If your survey of 44,000 workers across 35 countries found that admins view their jobs as not useless, your survey is fucked.

Best Buy also like to hire actual cops for their security. It's a nice part time and the employee discount was good. Did make my brother breathe a bit easier when he worked there.
Fair points, I think, to a degree.

Mind you, I wasn't trying to accuse you of being racist. I purposefully phrased my comment the way I did not to be obtuse but to allow for the fact that coming across as racist may not have been your intention. I still think the way you phrased in the comment I replied to had the issue I mentioned.

How big is the final binary? It would be interesting to compare the final size to the total size of the GBC game. Although apparently

So I'm not sure it's ready for that comparison.
Sub 8.6% chance of funds disappearing? Absolutely! Listen, I'm no Berkshire Hathaway, but the likeyhood that BlockFi one of the world's largest holders of BitCoin and backed by $500+ million in VC funding just outright fails is very very low.

I know, here come the Enron or Mt. Gox rebuttals. The regulation and oversight that BlockFi has is much greater than those other examples.

It would be interesting if somebody could figure out the likelihood that BlockFi fails. Though I don't see how.
What happens when the highly-paid actors age? There won't be any young celebrity actors, because without the low-paid jobs there is nowhere to gain that sort or celebrity. Instead, you will see younger versions of older, highly-paid actors. And eventually just versions of deceased actors. Stage actors will remain stage actors, with side gigs as puppeteers of virtual actors. And reality TV. Maybe this is the dystopian future, where our movie stars are all former reality TV participants (or digital representations of them that can actually act).
They are used widely in games. But, not so much elsewhere. Non-game-app designers get upset by the artifacts. I've shipped games using them for UI. We were hapy to tolerate the artifacts in exchange for the 8X memory usage & memory bandwidth reduction (RGBA8888 vs. PVTRC4).

However, I've heard that Netflix was one of the first sponsors of https://github.com/BinomialLLC/basis_universal They are shipping innumerable images to a huge variety of underpowered set top boxes. Totally worth investing in a giant-leap memory optimization.
The Expanse got this right, as well. Early in the series a Belter is shown casually opening his helmet to fix a loose wire after exhaling and dropping his suit pressure.

Hmmm.... personally I never saw any ambiguity in who qualified when and where for that vaccine so it's pretty hard for me to buy into anyone using that for an excuse to jump in a line they didn't belong in.

This is a moral character issue. I try to avoid those who don't have it and doing that is more than proof enough for me they don't.
I forgot all about Jet until you just mentioned them. I should look into them as an amazon replacement.
This pretty much summarizes how it was taken advantage of:

I certainly didn't intend it to be the top comment; that was entirely by upvotes.
Refinement types and Dependent types can do all of that. But you are right that mainstream languages ca’t do that today. Hopefully that will change.
That probably comes down to location and competence+availability of staff. I've had basically equal results from the three different grocery stores I've ordered from in my current location, one of which is Walmart, one is a Kroger subsidiary, and one is a local higher-end chain. But when I was in SF, I had terrible results with Instacart, and resorted to shopping in person.

I don't shop there because I take pride in the things I own and prefer quality. They sell specially cheapened versions of popular brands (e.g. Tide) and their store is filled with low-quality products.

It's sad because Walmart Labs has been one of the few groups from a big company putting money behind Clojure/script, which I would like to see succeed.
And yet I don’t use them. I use Etsy. I use chewy. I use other niche e-commerce but I never use Walmart online.

They can’t just replicate Amazon they have to be better than Amazon.

Your statement "I'm against discrimination" hits me as ambiguous.

Do you discriminate between bananas and durian?

Do you discriminate between the man who beat you up and your spouse/partner?
Are the prices at Walmart really that much lower than Target? On the limited amount of stuff I buy, it’s not been the case.
I do t think it’s as prevalent in Europe.
>The question is what would you do about this? Should you do anything? I personally don't think it's any of our collective business how a household chooses to raise their children beyond the extremes of physical abuse and neglect.

Only speaking for myself, I think society has a role in helping overcoming those disadvantages that aren’t the fault of the child. Otherwise, you are asking them to pay for the sins of their fathers. I also think society as a whole would be better off for it and the overall aptitude would increase by truly seeing who has the most merit, rather than who won the cultural lottery.
I wouldn't say the physical location is materially nicer, but the food experience is. I don't think I've ever been served stale food at Chick Fil A, and at McDonald's there's a very good chance on almost every visit. The employees also seem much happier and more helpful in my anecdotal experience.
I have mentioned this several times on this forums that public cloud pricing is a rip off. Even for small companies, they are better off looking at IaaS providers because 95% of companies just need compute and storage etc on demand.
When you say support their own government you should remember that it's not their own government. They don't have any choice in who represents them unless they are one of the 9% of the population that is a member of the CCP.
Tangentially related: one reason I try very hard not to shop at Walmart is because they try hard to make you feel like a criminal.

For instance, hanging from the ceiling smack-dab in the middle of some aisles are little TVs showing you that they're recording you. And when you walk down the aisle, the little TV senses you and lights up (it's remarkably bright) so that you _have_ to notice it.

And nine times out of ten I get hassled by the LPOs on my way out—demanding to see my receipt like they're busting some sort of birthday card stealing ring.

I do get that shoplifting is a big problem for them. The (small, middle-class) city I grew up in always has a cop in the parking lot of the local Walmart because so many people steal things. In high school, kids would grab booze or energy drinks and pass it through the bars in the garden section to their friends. Or just shove it in their backpack and run. And most of the "Do you recognize this shoplifter?" posts on FB or wherever by the local PD are from the Walmart.

But I can't help but think that they're driving away the type of people they _want_ to shop there. I'll gladly drive farther and pay more to shop in a pleasant environment.
