Only if it makes economic sense or improves their quality of life will the rich countries adopt green energy massively. We need to subsidize, develop, and deploy cheap forms of nuclear that scale well. Small Modular Reactors have me hopeful. Thorium is promising, but still has difficulties to overcome. Without mass nuclear development, I don't see how we will adapt fast enough.
Listing achievements/accomplishments/results/whatever, as specifically as possible, has been absolutely standard resume advice for decades. Maybe "achievements" is a trendy term. I don't know as I haven't updated my resume for over 10 years. But the point is that it matters more that you accomplished something specific than that you had this job.
>America has an 18 to one advantage over Brazil in the number of guns, yet proportionally, Brazil suffers six times more deaths by guns than America.

>In Brazil, all firearms must be registered with the state. Minimum age for owning a gun is 25 and restrictions make it virtually impossible to have a carry permit. Owners must pay a $40 tax every three years. As a result of these and other restrictions, it is very difficult to own a gun in Brazil much less carry one.

IMO the biggest advantage for not requiring code reviews for every change is to concentrate code review efforts to where it's needed most: changes with higher risk.

Sure, every change has some degree of risk. But obviously some changes have more and if you are treating all changes equally then you may overlook the important changes.

I would expect some muscle mass loss from a long-duration fast because your liver needs to consume protein to synthesize some sugars for the small number of cells that require sugar (e.g. red blood cells).

I think consuming a bit of yeast (as Mr. Barbieri did) is probably a good idea to prevent your body from catabolizing muscles.

This is the PS1 I've been using for a long time:

export PS1="\n\$(kube_ps1)\n\[\033[01;32m\]\u@\h\[\033[00m\]:\[\033[01;34m\]\w\[\033[0;31m\]\$(__git_ps1)\n\$\[\033[00m\] "

Note it needs the git-prompt.sh script (usually comes with the bash-completion package), and the kube-ps1 script: https://github.com/jonmosco/kube-ps1

It will show you the current kubernetes profile and namespace, user@host, current directory and git branch if you're in a git repo.

I used my case to question how central the university needs to be in any process of skill acquisition: high-end, or low-end.

I wasn't answering the question; I was asking it.

It is still clearly the case the university has a role. I just do not think we have caught up to how well employers can train their employees; how well even highly advanced skills can be acquired; how very very recent advancements (youtube, etc.) can provide a good-quality education; and so on.

In an age where meaningful professional development can be made without the university, there is a serious question to be asked: how many will meaningfully benefit from the university system? (And: how many are meaningfully harmed?).

The answer, in both cases, is surely: some.
Really? Can you show me the current records for the Marieval Indian Residential School where they just found 751 unmarked graves?
The bottom download link points you to GitHub, where you can get exes straight from CI, if you trust that more.

I've looked into getting https from my site, but there's always a high cost associated, if you want a certificate that's widely accepted (which doesn't seem to hold for the free ones). And I think my host isn't even compatible with free ones.

If the web wants HTTPS everywhere, this somehow needs to be made simpler/cheaper for non-commercial entities.

In my experience, the best strategy depends a lot on the severity of the outage.

If all the alarms are going off because of a loss of redundancy, then currently there is no outage. The correct move should be carefully considered, and maybe tested in the sandbox environment.

If there is currently a 100% outage, it's best to go all out on trying every possible fix, because typically you'll restore service quicker that way. Sure, occasionally you dig yourself a deeper hole, but usually it's the best strategy.

From what I gathered the problem is in the memory module and not memory itself. It would be like your RAM failing. No amount of rust or memory safety can help with that. Moreover you don’t exactly re-upload the entire Hubble system from earth. You may be interested in looking into NASA’s actual software integrity requirements as they are quite stringent and one of the reasons they use some antiquated languages. Rust is far too new, young, and buggy to even consider.

Appreciate the seemingly ever present optimism of rustaceans to golden hammer the language though.

You don't shoot in any direction where missing the target is a problem. If there a a house near-by or a busy road and the path of a bullet not hitting its target may encroach that space you don't even point your gun let alone shoot. For deer hunting an elevated position in a stand makes it more likely you see a deer but also makes it far less likely that a miss will go somewhere you don't want.
I'm guessing you were my downvote, and yet I can't downvote your comment.

The relevant text of the 14th Amendment here is its opening declaration: "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States ...." [0] (Emphasis added.)

In other words: Under the 14th Amendment, United States citizenship takes precedence over state citizenship — kind of like the old boast, civis romanus sum: I'm a Roman citizen. (The implication was: fuck with me at your peril.) Cf. Act 22:25: "As they stretched him out to flog him, Paul said to the centurion standing there, 'Is it legal for you to flog a Roman citizen who hasn’t even been found guilty?'"

To be sure, there are Lost-Cause diehards who claim that the 14th Amendment never actually came into effect because the Southern states refused to ratify it and so it didn't get the necessary 3/4 of states; courts have consistently rejected that claim [1]. If anything, the former Confederate states should be grateful that they didn't get the treatment that the Allies meted out to the Germans and Japanese in 1945 and afterwards — one recent commentator, remarking on the outrages perpetrated in and by the post-Civil War South, tweeted that "Sherman should've mowed the deep south like a lawn, making multiple passes."

What I don’t get is hospitals buying things like MRI scanners, with Windows based “controller” with no upgrade path. The hospital, and the manufacturer, knows that the version of Windows they’re running will be EOL before the hardware, yet nobody ask the manufacturer how they plan to deal with that fact.

The promise of Windows 10 being the last Windows could have but an end to that nonsense.
Mac OS X has direct linage from NeXTStep that was first released in 1989 -- four years before Windows NT.

When it was originally rebranded OS X there was so much backlash from developers and Apple had to go back and spend a year creating a new API (Carbon) to mimic the one in Mac OS classic.

There is no reason to complain about "backwards compatibility cruft". An OS exists to run software and an OS that runs less software is less useful. Over time this backwards compatibility stuff is less and less significant -- you can run several copies of Windows 95 entirely in the L2 cache of a modern system.

No need for a blockchain. Distributed software distribution has been around forever, whether it was handing out disks back in the day or streaming warez over BitTorrent now. The problem is trust.

Blockchain enabled transaction processing where the parties to the transaction don't need to trust each other, as long as they are only transacting in goods stored on the blockchain. Once you get into the world of one party having to physically deliver something the other party will use, you're back to the problem of trust.

So until all software runs on the blockchain, no, as long as you still need to install it onto your device, you need to be able to trust the delivery network. You certainly don't need a central authority for that. Normal desktop devices work perfectly fine with people relying on PGP signatures in common Linux distros or something like Chocolatey on Windows and Brew on Mac. But you don't need a blockchain, either, nor does it add any value.
"The Case Against Education" by Bryan Caplan lays out exactly this argument:

"Caplan argues that the primary function of education is not to enhance students' skills but to certify their intelligence, conscientiousness, and conformity—attributes that are valued by employers. He ultimately estimates that approximately 80% of individuals' return to education is the result of signaling, with the remainder due to human capital accumulation."

When a football brings down an airplane, then we can have that discussion. Don’t know anyone throwing footballs at 500 feet in the approach course of an airport. There has to be a level of common sense involved in this discussion.

All the arguments I hear for remote work revolve around the comfort of the individual developer. That’s great but companies are more than just individual developers. They are teams working together to build things that individuals couldn’t build alone.

I’ve long held that the secret to FAANG company success wasn’t their technical prowess or even their products. Is that they have superior software development processes. Their secret sauce is their process. Companies with shitty offices, crappy untrusting management, and heavyweight processes get beat by those with processes similar to FB or Google.

You’ll note that all the companies in FAANG invest a shit ton into their office experiences… well except Amazon.

Yes. It's easy to paint the current Chinese policies as barbaric, but such was the official policy in democratic Canada (and the US, which had similar policies) barely a generation ago. It does not justify current Chinese minority policy, but it does make them more understandable and relatable.

It also suggests to me that outside pressures for policy change in China are probably largely futile. Would the Canadian or American Natives policies have changed much under foreign pressure?

It's 2 separate points, Apple explicitly said they allow sideloading (I wouldn't even call it side loading, it's just "install from outside the app store" and "allow unsigned applications if you want") and booting any other OS is allowed, there is even some amount of Apple documentation on how to do it, and success with both BSD and linux. Drivers are of course an issue.

I wouldn't be surprised if both of those are still running in Task Manager's process list if you look, under unassuming names like SearchUI.exe. It's quite hard to disable Microsoft's malware in my experience, a lot of it relaunches itself, or comes back after an OS update. The number of running Microsoft processes goes up every year.
Kubernetes isn’t focused on solving specific end-user problems, it focuses on a community and a set of lower level computer science problems. The community and openness to extend itself to nearly every use case in distributed or networked computing is its strength. The CNCF’s ecosystem map shows this: there is a strong supply of options. This then drives a deep FOMO in tech consumers.

In the community, from my POV anyway, the fact that Kube lacks the end-user experience of Heroku is irrelevant: what matters is how problems are solved: in the Kubernetes Way, or not at all. Some day developers may get their “cf push” or Heroku “git push”, built in Kubernetes, but it must be done “the right way” (no one knows what that is until they see it) to be accepted by the community and thus standardized. There are attempts at this today such as CNCF’s pack/buildpacks, Knative, or Openshift’s S2I… but none of that really has critical mass. The Heroku experience may never happen, but there’s a lot of money being spent to give it a shot.

Kubernetes is more than software, it is a movement. It is trying to drive a standard architecture of how to build and run distributed software with a set of (mostly) elegant design patterns and principals. The YAML overload is a temporary side effect of limited scope: the endgame is that every piece of server software is manageable as a CRD with an operator, and the greater Kubernetes API ecosystem subsumes all categories of cloud and server software.

It reminds me of past major tech waves like Java or Windows 95 or the Web itself: it sucks a lot of oxygen out of the conversation for a decade or so, and solves some problems while creating new ones.

Neither iOS nor MacOS are dominant in their respective categories. You can argue that the right metric to look at is market share by revenue and not by devices sold, and iOS does increase its footprint significantly at 42% of global smartphone revenue [1] (cementing itself as the single largest player), but still, arguably, not monopoly levels. I couldn't find a similar figure for the Desktop OS market, only (what I assume) is for devices currently running [2]. Sidenote: I think it's interesting to note that Windows market share has been steadily declining over the years, from a peak of ~91% a mere 8 years ago to around 76% in 2020.

Given this, by bundling a chat/productivity application (that has nothing to do with the OS product that Microsoft is selling), Microsoft is using its huge leverage in one category (OS) to increase its market share in another unrelated category (chat apps). This matches one of the conditions for US anti-trust action [3], and could even match the predatory pricing [uncited, hard to prove] condition (Microsoft bundling Teams for free indicates the cost of Teams is being absorbed by the Windows or some other business unit).

Looks like some pretty nice improvements, particularly in regards to window management.

From the video, it sounds like they're adding persistent grid layouts, with apps able to be assigned to specific tiles in the grid, and Windows remembers and restores those positions when you restart apps or switch monitor layouts (e.g. when connecting a laptop to a docking station). Looks like they've also expanded the multi-desktop feature to integrate nicely with these new persistent grid layouts, with labeled desktops for particular tasks.

The new native support for Android apps also seems like it could be really useful, depending on how well-integrated it is with the rest of the OS.

Firing a weapon inaccurately in the correct general direction isn't high risk, this isn't how people get hurt in hunting accidents. You shouldn't even have your rifle up (let alone firing) at all unless you have a clear idea of what will happen when you miss, and a good view of the field.
