By that logic, attractive women who go out in public wearing skimpy outfits are committing theft - but I would not want to make dressing sexily and then going out in public illegal. I think there is something about the airplane banner at the beach and the slick hyper-calculated megacorp advertisement that pops up on the website you visit that is annoying for reasons other than theft - it is not so much the grabbing of one's attention that is annoying, but rather what grabs it and what the intentions behind it are and what context it happens in. Part of what makes many ads suck, I imagine, is that people deliberately design them to be unpleasant - which is why so many of them are garish. They stand out in part because they actually are meant to be annoying. In which case it is not so much the grabbing of attention that is the problem as what grabs it and what the intention is - in the case of the deliberately garish ad, your attention is grabbed in a deliberately unpleasant manner by a team of total strangers who work for YetAnotherSlickModernCorporation, want only profit, and are probably not offering you anything that you want.
It is fascinating how the ProPublica articles are redistributed in mainstream media (BBC, CNN, etc) even though they are obviously wrong, biased and even based on stolen private data.

My company says that sort of stuff. When you dig deeper, it's kind of a lie. They constantly want things faster, meaning more hours the workers have to put in during a shorter time.

"The civil law system is often contrasted with the common law system, which originated in medieval England, whose intellectual framework historically came from uncodified judge-made case law, and gives precedential authority to prior court decisions."

I'm curious what is being used for the drives (and to a lesser extent, memory) - Dell or OEM and how does support work?

We sell a lot of Dell and for base models, it is very economical compared to self built.

The moment however we add a few high capacity hard drives or memory, all bets are off the table and it's usually 1.75-4x the price of a white box part.

I get not supporting the part itself, but, had them not support a raid card error (corrupt memory) after they saw we had a third party drive.... we only buy a handful of servers a month - I can imagine this possibly being a huge problem for Backblaze though...

The "error rate" cited today by Cowessess First Nation and their partnered technical teams was 10% to 15%. The ground penetrating radar technology does not merely look for "ground anomalies", they work to specifically identify burial shafts, which tend to be rather distinctive. To say that they are merely counting any "anomaly" as a "fictional" grave is misrepresenting the work being done.
How does the cost compare to single use plastics? This is the only question that matters. These innovations are a dime a dozen.
The filesystem (NTFS) being god awful slow with large numbers of files is a good reason.

It boggles my mind that Microsoft has not gotten around to making this better. Apple even introduced introduced a new FS (APFS) and migrated people silently and successfully.

Overall, I think this is really cool. The parts that are a hard sell IMO are:

1. The need to trust Cloudflare is a no-go for some. I trust them and I think solutions like this are better than the "roll your own" type you'll see with self-managed PKI and VNC, but someone having the ability to MitM the remote connections is going to elicit a hard pass from some people I know. Or did I get that wrong? Cloudflare can MitM the connection if they want right?

2. Local/private traffic becomes non-local traffic. For example, I know of a place that's part of a large private network and all their internal traffic (between physical locations) transits that network without hitting the internet. They also have traffic management policies that favor keeping traffic on the private network whenever possible.

The second one is a fairly specific case though.

There's some awesomeness to this type of setup that uses Cloudflare Access. I was recently working on a network where we needed remote access to a single machine, but also needed to loop in a couple people from different organizations. It seems like there are a dozen systems for remote access and screen sharing and everyone is on a different one. Coordinating a couple people to collaborate was a pain and collaboration tools with screen sharing don't allow you to leave access to the remote machine in place if one of the participants needs it.

I wish Cloudflare Access had the concept of free guests and a OneDrive like workflow for sharing access to apps / resources. Maybe it does, but I don't use it beyond testing. For example, I'd like to configure VNC like described and be able to "share" the resource with an external user via email where they can get a one-time-pin for auth and where I can set an expiry on the share.

Do I have to pay for guests that only log in once or twice via Cloudflare Access? I know they get marked as inactive if they don't log in during a month, but having to pay for them (and think about it before sharing) takes away from something that's pretty awesome otherwise. This is the reason I dropped paid GitLab too. Paying for external users that barely use the service is a no-go for me.
Moral repugnance doesn’t make it legally impermissible either, and for good reason.

Amazon Appstore (used for Microsoft's Android integration in Windows 11) uses Amazon Device Messgaing (ADM) instead of Google's Firebase Cloud Messgaing (FCM) for push notifications. A FCM receiver is built into Google Play Services to enable push notifications for Play Protect certified Android devices, but ADM is a viable alternative for Amazon and Microsoft as long as developers tailor and submit apps to the Amazon Appstore.

For $25 I can get a legitimate Windows 7 Pro license sticker that works like any Windows 10 license, which is perfectly legal all the way through.

But depending on your jurisdiction, the $5 enterprise keys can also be entirely fine. Sure, in a way that's outsourcing piracy. But the law doesn't have to see it that way. There's nothing illegal about buying enterprise keys, and if they are overprovisioning keys that's between them and MS, I can't even know if that's the case.
In today's news, we have Google refusing to do something that would damage their ad business, and we have Apple refusing to do something that would damage their app store business.

I was speaking in the context of the reservists described in Ordinary Men in this comment, not the Trawnikis, though I still don't agree with your blanket characterization of them. Please provide the references you speak of about them being the worst of the worst. Their wikipedia article claims with references that approximately 1000 out of 5000 ran off during operations, that hardly seems like the actions of a bunch of willing sadists frothing at the mouth to kill.

I thought that from context it was clear that it means “Code sharing _via subclassing_ is a bad idea.” which the whole previous section tried to establish. I have clarified the sentence.
Once you get fairly far into your career, covering each title separately adds up to a lot of uninteresting text. My two (now 3) long-term jobs, my titles varied but my fundamental role didn't--though my responsibilities increased. (And often didn't go by my official title anyway.)

I just looked at my (out-dated) resume and, for my first two long-term jobs, I just put the years, one of two specific titles, and a list of major accomplishments.

That said, I've never had to go through an HR screen so my resume probably never mattered much.
The difficulty in reading this book is usually greatly exaggerated. It takes a while to come to grips with, but it is not in the least impenetrable. It’s one of my favorite novels. It’s certainly no Finnegan’s Wake, which I pick up and read a page of every few years, only to put it down, saying, “not this time”.
They're running a fair bit of math (probably Reed Solomon matrix multiplications for error correction) over all the data accesses.

Given the bandwidth of 60+ hard drives (150MB/s per hard drive x 60 == 9GB/s in/out), I'm pretty sure you need a decent CPU just to handle the PCIe traffic. At least PCIe 3.0 x16, just for the hard drives. And then another x16 for network connections (multiple PHY for Fiber in/out that can handle that 9GB/s to a variety of switches).

We're looking at PCIe 3.0 x32 just for HDDs and Networking. Throw down a NVMe-cache or other stuff and I'm not seeing any kind of small system working out here.

---------

Then the math comes in: matrix multiplications over every bit of data to verify checksums and reed-solomon error correction starts to get expensive. Maybe if you had an FPGA or some kind of specialist DSP (lol GPUs maybe, since they're good at matrix multiplication), you can handle the bandwidth. But it seems nontrivial to me.

Server CPU seems to be a cheap and simple answer: get the large number of PCIe I/O lanes plus a beefy CPU to handle the calculations. Maybe a cheap CPU with many I/O lanes going to a GPU / FPGA / ASIC for the error checking math, but... specialized chips cost money. I don't think a cheap low-power CPU would be powerful enough to perform real-time error correction calculations over 9GBps of data.

--------

We can leave Backblaze's workload and think about typical SAN or NAS workloads too. More I/O is needed if you add NVMe storage to cache hard drive reads/writes, tons of RAM is needed if you plan to dedup.
I don't know about permeating the industry. I know for example that the model that Airbnb used 3 years ago (things may have changed in the meantime) to forecast occupancy was a random-effects model maintained by a single person in Europe. I don't know about the penetrance of Generable and companies providing similar probabilistic modeling solutions, although I hope they succeed.

When I was working for one of the FAANGs, I was the only one using random effects models (that I know of), in particular non-linear random effects models with ~ hundreds of random effects. I was using a language/tool faster than Stan (fitting the same model with Stan would have taken hours, or more likely days), but making the models converge was always challenging. In addition, since most of my colleagues had a CS background and were in love with the latest not interpretable, brute force algorithm, and were scared of a more statistical approach they made no effort to learn, I faced pushback and skepticism despite the model working very well.

I love random effects model, and I build my technical career on them.
I'm currently in the market for a new phone. I'm using a Samsung A71 and AT&T has notified me several times their 3G network is going away so I need to move to a 5G phone. I had boiled down my options to OnePlus 9 5G and iPhone 12.

Just from the comments it would seem the safe choice is to go with the iphone - even though I'm still pissed about Apple removing the charging block and forcing people to buy a new one.

Anybody can have a Roth IRA. Even if you're over the income limit for a Roth, you can still convert a traditional to a Roth IRA after you pay taxes on the amount. These conversions are pretty common and well known.

I just tried it:

* On Safari it works correctly with default settings.

* On Chrome with third party cookies disabled it doesn't work and takes you to https://support.google.com/drive/answer/2423534

I poked around in dev tools, and it looks like what's happening is in serving to Safari it gives a download link that includes authentication information, but when serving to Chrome it doesn't. Perhaps because it's expecting to get third party cookies?

My guess is that they rolled out special handling for Safari when it started blocking third-party cookies by default, which will eventually make its way to all browsers?

I'm not really sure what the discussion here is about. If you sell someone 5 days of your time, starting Monday, and Wednesday is a billable day, then, yes, you need to spend Wednesday working on that project. In the sense that you can't spend half the day billing on someone else's project (you'd be double-booked, which is a no-no), sure. But nobody is looking to make sure exactly which hours you worked on a given billable day; that's just not how it works.

For the most part, this stuff is honor system.

I don't know whether it's wise to publish it now as "the forecast is subject to changes". If they're gonna backpedal on it, then it will feed the tinfoil hatters.

The rule of dealing with idiots/assholes is to remember anything you say may be used against you, so reducing the attack surface is key. Just do not say anything you're not sure of, don't hyperbolize, consider the wording - its connotations or whether it could be subverted in a pun or a sarcastic way. Make sure as little as possible can be taken out of context.

For example, propagandists of the Polish ruling party PiS have taken a word "caste" out of context to illustrate how members of the judiciary supposedly put themselves above the general population. [1]

Quote: "Most of Hubble's components have redundant back-ups, so once scientists figure out the specific component that's causing the computer problem, they can remotely switch over to its back-up part."

So it's time to do what every gamer does when the rig fails. Switch parts and see who's the culprit.
And yes, I do understand the next quote: <"The rule of thumb is when something is working you don't change it," Hertz said. "We'd like to change as few things as possible when we bring Hubble back into service.">

But between having nothing anymore, since Hubble had its last maintenance in 2009 (per quote: "The last time astronauts visited Hubble was in 2009 for its fifth and final servicing mission.") and have something now that definitely would fail later, I'd choose the latter.

" Then who pays for 99% of the websites on the internet? hosting isn't free."

Those who can afford it could pay their own hosting fees, and donations, governments, and philanthropic foundations could subsidize the cost of hosting for those who can't.

Most businesses could of course pay for their own hosting, and even now don't operate on "free" (ad-supported) hosting services.

So, yeah, I'm not really worried about the survival of the internet if unsolicited ads were banned. There's already a glut of content being created every day, and that's unlikely to be significantly reduced.
There has been speculation that in a future Android version, Google will extend features of its Advanced Protection program to all devices. One of those is that sideloading of APKs will no longer be possible unless you do it over the command line via ADB. Only a tiny percentage of the population, techies like us, would be comfortable doing that. So, "you can still sideload" might not be a thing for long.

Roth versions of tax deferred accounts only exists because the government is an irresponsible spender and needed revenues. It made the contract with the people because its like a degenerate crack addict child scrounging for cash, in its case only to keep convincing international investors that it can slowly pay debt. Wow the contract worked and you just caught on 22 years later.

What is your issue with people making good trades in a tax deferred and tax exempt accounts? That it needs more revenues again? The government will be fine, international investors are content with its revenue sources. These kinds of accounts are already subject to massive penalties and even UBTI regulations
