Can someone explain to me if people still do new projects using CloudFormation? If so why?

I'm in an enterprise and they do everything with CloudFormation, but it doesn't really make sense to me. None of the code is reusable, it's yaml or json, which isn't easy to write to begin with.

I remember in the early days there were 2 frameworks that would compile to CF. I googled recently and found Lono, and it looks nice, but there's a fraction of the modules available that are available for terraform and getting help is also limited by the number of users. And then there is the big question for me why are building things that make CF look like Terraform[0].

I'm not a fanboy of Terraform either, there's plenty of stuff that I didn't like about it. But even AWS themselves almost seem to have more reusable templates in Terraform than they do CF.

Interesting! I stumbled across the following part:

The report states "German investors continue their divestment from the DAX [...] DWS Investment was the biggest domestic seller, followed by BlackRock Asset Management (Deutschland)" and "North American investment continued to grow [...] mainly driven by Vanguard".

If a German citizen sells a BlackRock ETF and switches to Vanguard (e.g. due to lower TER), would that reflect in the report as "German divestment from the DAX"?
If it's as responsibly managed as Australia claims, I guess a sizable part of the reef is off limits to tourists, so it should be easy to find out if there is significantly more damage in areas where diving is allowed?
Our politicians support coal because political "donations" are legal. Fully fund political parties out of general revenue and fully fund ICAC and we'll be in a better position.

Heavily simplified:

"High" inflation happens during seller markets. (sellers have more power)

Low inflation or even deflation happens during buyer markets. (buyers have more power)

There, the monetary explanation of inflation no longer makes sense as you can create money in a way that does not turn the labor market into a seller market. The pandemic turns the economy into a sellers market temporarily so it is inflation but it is unlikely to last.

As a bonus: Keynesian economics is mostly about buyer markets, Austrian/neoclassical/neoliberal economics are mostly about seller markets. The theories aren't even competing against each other because they aren't even talking about the same thing.
So many of the performance-reducing security are related to timing attacks.

Would perhaps a solution to this be to have mixed cores: some cores intended for managing passwords and other secure data with all the performance reducing mitigations to avoid timing attacks. Other cores completely unlocked, no mitigations, and intended for non-secure computation (gaming, number crunching, ...).

Then let the OS and programmers ensure it's known which computation is marked as secure and which is not, to decide on which cores it can be ran.

I have heard that we are using the precautionary principle regarding covid. Yet we applied lockdowns, masks and various other measures that the WHO had declared likely to cause more harm than benefit (2019 Pandemic guideline) for a disease that has had a worldwide mortality rate of 0.05% worldwide.
I'm not talking about slave trade

Countries that have a significant outsourcing footprint, do you think they do it because they're foolish/greedy? if it is so bad for them? There is a pressure especially in overpopulated nations to create jobs and the local economy is not mature enough to create enough jobs nor value to pay well.

I would also posit that CA coast (and west coast in general) weather, geographical amenities, and food are a big draw for many people. Fruits and vegetables taste better when they come from an hour away rather than across the country.

Plus, CA’s labor laws giving clear rights to people for their work on their own side projects and prohibition of non competes make it quite attractive for tinkerers and innovators.
That is no excuse. It was possible to create almost instantly responsive UIs more than 20 years ago.

The need for painting in residential and commercial buildings
Any Interior House Painting North York services for homes encourage recycling, have a low environmental impact, and leave a fully finished surface behind.

Interviewing is a pain in the arse. It's time consuming, especially in tech with "coding challenges" and other crap, its difficult to bother applying for a job every two weeks when in full time employment.

One point for dishwashers I haven't seen mentioned is that they get the dishes a lot cleaner than you ever could by hand, because very hot water. Gets the oils off much better than any amount of soap. For what it's worth.

First time I traveled to the US (I was 13) I thought there was something odd about the dishes... they felt strange. I told my host, I said "there seems to be a film of something that feels strange". He thought about it and said, "what you feel is the absence of something... the thin film of oil that you can't get off when you wash the dishes by hand, but the machine can." He was right.

I accidentally abandoned many of my preferences (likes/dislikes) and automated judgments. I took this newfound perspective into music, embodying the idea of "there are no wrong notes." I find deep joy in sitting at a 120+ year old pump organ, holding a mishmash of dissonant notes, including some out of tune ones, and wiggling one of the keys to learn to spot it in the mashup. It gives me a chance to witness the internalized feelings conditioned from classical musical training and listening to a ton of western music throughout my life, as well as to watch those feelings fade away into the joy.

We can learnjoy anything, which is why choosing to do anything without joy doesn't make sense to me anymore.
The container shortage has nothing to do with trade imbalances. Those existed already before, yet we only had container shortages around Chinese New Year. Now is different, Chinas Covid lockdown resulted in almost no shipments to Europe and the US (I am not that familiar with the Asia US business). That meant a container shortage for exports from the EU, which resulted in less containers at these destinations. Then China opened up again, while the rest of the world went into lockdown. Add to that Chinese new year, crazy demand changes (e.g. wood from everywhere to China and the US), disruptions caused by Covid and you have containers all over the place. Just not where they usually are supposed to be. And containers where already less available before Covid compared to 5 years ago. That'll take a while to sort out. More, much more, than I guessed a year ago.

Anomaly Detection Methods in Machine Learning
If you have three copies then you can automatically heal from any single sector going bad, and semi-automatically heal from a sector going bad in the same spot in two copies at once. Or you could make five copies even.

> (And btw, parity doesn't protect you from bitrot forever, only for like a decade or two)

Based on what settings and what environment?

By the time you're losing a large percentage of your sectors, you're probably losing everything regardless of format. You don't use file formats to protect from entire disks or tapes failing.

Also, if you set up paranoid levels of parity you can recover a perfect image even when a RAW file would be covered in gaps and noise, while still being a lot smaller.

> How come some people can answer this so easily even though > I took college math and cannot? Why is the skill gap so great?

The maths you learned was not proof based, just knowing calq / linalg / diffeq's etc. is knowing how to use some tools required for STEM it's not really proper maths.

> How do people learn advanced math?

They do what you did but go a step further.

Most STEM undergraduates learn calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, maybe some laplace and fourier transforms.

The next step is to go right back to the beginning and learn to construct the lemmas and properties of numbers using logic and proofs. Most courses don't do this step. It's not a big deal unless you want to work in mathematics academia figuring out proofs to things.

> So I need to learn skills that will make me employable.

Mathematics is not what you should focus on. No one is going to start paying you to write proofs.
Then apply holism and the math of dynamical system.

A quote from [The Geography of Thought](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Geography_of_Thought).

"...we’ve seen that modern Asians, like the ancient Chinese, view the world in holistic terms: They see a great deal of the field, especially background events; they are skilled in observing relationships between events; they regard the world as complex and highly changeable and its components as interrelated; they see events as moving in cycles between extremes; and they feel that control over events requires coordination with others. Modern Westerners, like the ancient Greeks, see the world in analytic, atomistic terms; they see objects as discrete and separate from their environments; they see events as moving in linear fashion when they move at all; and they feel themselves to be personally in control of events even when they are not. Not only are worldviews different in a conceptual way, but also the world is literally viewed in different ways. Asians see the big picture and they see objects in relation to their environments—so much so that it can be difficult for them to visually separate objects from their environments. Westerners focus on objects while slighting the field and they literally see fewer objects and relationships in the environment than do Asians. "

I won't say it's totally about cultural difference. Many asians are reductionists, while many westerners are holistic thinking people.

How are you pentesting without knowing the IPs of your in-scope targets?
That's not particularly accurate. Dark matter isn't just a thing people thought would be cool if it existed.

We've got a bunch of observations that, combined with our knowledge of physics, indicate there is more mass out there than we can see. But we haven't been able to figure out what it is. Hence, dark matter.

Could dark matter not exist? Sure, but it would require some pretty big changes in our understanding of how things work. There are also multiple efforts out there trying to find the stuff.

At any rate, multiple aspects of dark matter are a very far cry from being remotely comparable to theology.

So many people that have issues with git, yet it still is quite popular... everywhere. I wonder if they would do any better with another VCS. I do look forward to pijul.
Completely agree. I think it's the aether of modern science. And I believe that one day all the discrepancy between measurements that lead to the idea of dark matter will be explained by a new (and by that time seemingly obvious) approach to how weak forces interact with mass.
And at what paranoia level would you rather loose data to lossy compression than use the original without and just spend a dollar more on storage?
No. The ETF holdings are masked behind the provider of the ETF. SO in your case, the holdings remain unchanged.
Typically there is less damage in the areas where tourists dive. As the reef experiences more bleaching events and dies, the tourism operators cherry pick the parts that aren't bleached.

The reef has pretty well had it due to climate change. It's only a matter of time, so better management of local effects such as runoff from land will delay the death, not avoid it. [1]

Apart from the climate change denying Federal Government [2], the opposition is being driven by tourist operators, who are afraid that people will write the reef off as not worth seeing [3]. Maybe they should be running a huge "Last Chance to See" campaign?
