Loved that you mentioned PL/pgSQL - consistently impressed by the amount of logic that can be implemented in database using that or plv8 or its cousins. I personally have feels about why that may be a good solution for a lot of small-to-mid-to-large size build outs.

But yeah, in terms of logic we definitely expect you're going to need at least one other service for auth in the stack (for simplicity that service could also be used for any logic-based work as well).

One of the things we pride ourselves on is being non-opinionated about the logic side of the stack and trying to create as many 'escape-hatches' as possible.

Want to use db eventing? - We can event out to an external service.

Setup a custom action? - We can toss those arguments out to an external service and return a response.

Want to do some magic™ using other GraphQL tooling like Prima or Graphene? You can mesh those in with remote schemas.

We really want to build a tool that helps onboard you into the GraphQL ecosystem, but then scales with you as your stack becomes more complicated.
If Amazon has a monopoly on something, then what is it? I can not think of anything.

Let us assume for the sake of argument that Amazon has a monopoly on online retail: If prices are low and wages are high, what is the problem?
Brave's co-founder (and CEO) is also the co-founder of Mozilla. Our other co-founder (now CTO) was also an engineer at Mozilla for many years, and behind many of those contributions (several other Brave staff is directly connected to Mozilla as well). They started Brave in the same spirit, to improve that which is broken, and create a better, more equitable Web for all.
This is how I'm traveling that journey:

I started with a simple .org file. Whenever I encountered a problem, a question, or a confusing topic, I would simply add a todo heading.

Over time, I slowly learned Org-mode, then Babel, then transitioned to Org-Roam. I learned enough of Emacs Lisp, then learned Clojure, then tried other Lisps like Fennel. Today, I'm comfortably writing my own little elisp packages, sharing tips with my colleagues, chasing performance bottlenecks, and still learning.

Just start with a simple todo list.
While cleaning up my basement I found a box of 8" disks. These date back to when I had 2 5110s running in my living room one year. I wrote AR software for a liquor distribution company. They heated the whole house when I had both running at the same time. I wrote miles of code that winter. This was long before while loops and I had lots of GOTOs in the code.
Actually its very simple.

If you are born a certain sex, you should compete in the same sex category provided you haven’t taken any substances to enhance performance. This would mean you are only using what your body naturally produces.

If I ever get the time to work on it, I've bits and pieces put together to do something like this with a reMarkable. My goal is to make programming work on it and my angle is to use ideas from interactive theorem provers and language protocols. I just want to liberate computing from glowing screens and keyboards and be able to walk around and enjoy my garden or throw my work up on a board. Make computing more flexible for folks with different abilities. And maybe less intrusive in our lives. A computer that is there but you don't have to see it.

I guess this is a very common problem and a struggle for many of us. I also think that there is no simple fix for it. You might find yourself in the same situation after some years after you have start over somewhere else.

Maybe you should find pleasure in the fact that you can provide your family, instead of in your work. Maybe you could also try working less and find something else to derive pleasure from. If it is possible, try to find a more senior position in which you can mentor others. It is known to have a positive effect on job satisfication.

Honestly thank goodness for the backwards compatibility, otherwise I'd have to rewrite an existing legacy app I've been put in charge of maintaining at my place of work. The thing is in winforms and a weird third party UI library built with winforms as well. It would just be a nightmare for me to have to go through each screen to recreate it reliably.
A Simple Introduction to Social Tokens
Not exactly, no. It can be rendered on any operating system, but it is not the rendering language used for all platforms. What I'm talking about is all platforms (web, ios, android, tv, etc etc) using a single standard for representing interfaces. Similar to what happened to network technologies in the 80's and 90's, where all the competing silos agreed to use the http standard.
There's no historical reason to think that not supporting extreme speech will lead to fascism. There are historical reasons to think that curbing extremist speech protects democracy (see the Weimar Republic).

It would have been good to have a way of defining a method that can return the values instead of pointing to a static list. Also, perhaps a way of having a method for handling the display via a method and/or div.

example:
<input list="ice-cream-flavors" id="ice-cream-choice" match="findMatch()" displayMatches="displayMatches()" name="ice-cream-choice" />

<div id="match">
<label>{match.id}</label>
<img src="{match.imageUrl}"/>
<p>{match.value}</p>
</div>

But then HTML itself would need to have a templating syntax which works on data including having the ability to do conditional branching, looping, pattern matching etc... which may not have been a bad idea. But then you may be reinventing javascript :)
The idea is to set up rhetorical either-or's and then browbeat the majority into silence:

Either you support unlimited immigration or you are a racist.

Either you are 100% on board with the entire vaccine schedule or you are an anti-vaxxer.

Either you say that Covid was a natural occurrence or you are a conspiracy theorist (and probably a racist too).

And so on.

Say what one will, but it's effective.

I think one reason it works so well in the US is our puritan heritage, which has always had a strong manichean current in it. As the elites lost their religion, they retained this characteristic and it now manifests itself in the secular realm.

These aggressive activists do more to inflame anti-trans sentiment than any other. I'm fine with live and let live. Call yourself what you want, wear what you want, marry who you want -- no problem. But today's trans-activist is not satisfied with that; they also want to bully people and organizations into absurd things like having a person who lived and developed as a man for 35 years competing in strength sport against biological women.

It's not safe to say in liberal workplaces anymore, but this dynamic of transwomen activists forcing their way into women's spaces is creating exactly the same dynamic as men dominating women in other areas of life. As a woman, I'm tired of it. The latest example from my life: At my company all the women's groups are being rebranded to "gender minorities" groups to accommodate the wishes of a few activists deploying the usual bully tactics. If you disagree at all, you are labeled a TERF and they try to get you fired. So who, exactly, is creating the hostile workplace?
Isn't that true for every language?
Warren Buffett is also 90 years old now, and has been resigning from all corporate boards except his own. Hard to say if the resignation is actually a story or if the reporter wanted to create one.

How you learn C greatly impacts the code you will be writing.

The language allows too much freedom for a beginner and things can go bad quickly if you aren't rigorous about developing the right habits.

Years of experience helping people and seeing it happen first-hand is what leads to these strong opinions that you interpret as gatekeeping.

JavaScript Labels and Returning Early – Alex.Party
I love this project!

As a fellow tea drinker, I suspect the British would be appalled by my day to day tea-making and drinking method. I boil water, pour it over a teabag into a mug, walk away, and hope that by the next time I notice it, it's down to a reasonable drinking temperature, at which point I remove the teabag.

I'll grant that if I'm making good loose leaf tea, I'm pretty attentive to recommended brewing times, etc, but that's more of a weekend leisure tea exercise.

As an aside, I'm pretty incensed that my new electric kettle overshoots its set temperature and only holds temperature for 30 minutes. I'm semi-seriously considering trying to dump the firmware and improve it.

No, I'm not brewing tea with it. I'm keeping hide glue warm. I dropped my old "glue pot" the other day and needed a replacement now, not tomorrow.
The article says Buffett has resigned from all boards except Berkshire Hathaway. It must be because he thinks he's getting old, which he's mentioned a number of times regarding succession planning.
Seems to me employers need to be more understanding that depression and other mental health issues are suffered by many people and are simply part of life. Sounds like maybe you need to do some of the standard stuff to fight depression (e:g taking exercise, socialising, maybe take up a sport to combine the two) and look for a kinder employer. If your output/productivity isn't up to par at the moment, find a job where it pays less and they expect less, maybe even a lower grade, at least for the short-term. Because it feels a lot better to be performing well on a lower grade than struggling on a higher one. All the best :)
It's a real possibility you suffer from MDD. Do you struggle to get up in the morning? Oversleep? Depression and anxiety often manifests themselves differently in people but can lead to lower motivation, and can cause attention difficulties.

I suggest finding a Psychologist and trying some therapy (CBT/DBT). If your already on anxiety medications, I'd be careful taking those. You should only take them when your anxiety is at the very highest in low doses. Benzos are often over-prescribed and can be abused and can lead to physical dependence. A Psychiatrist will try prescribing all sorts of medications if they diagnose you with depression or ADHD, and you should be skeptical. You can also try (with therapy) other more non-invasive treatments like getting good exercise (cardio), sunlight (vitamin-D). There are other things that are more experimental too like TMS, Ketamine, etc.

Sleep and diet hygiene (in addition to exercise) are always important.

After years of treatment-resistant depression and being prescribed all sorts of medications (SSRIs, even a low-dose anti-psychotic at one point), I did a bout round of TMS and it really helped me.
Or as people like to say about Uber, DDG is doing "legal arbitrage" since they're still small and Google can't do that anymore.
Of notable curiosity not mentioned by VICE, but Apple actually modified their A12, A13, and A14 (I believe) CPUs while still in production to have a new second-generation Secure Enclave embedded within them sometime around Fall 2020. We don't know the full extent of the changes, but it sounds like the 2nd-generation enclave comes with much stronger hardware-based rate limiting on PIN code guessing through a "mailbox" system.

For me, that means I have my eyes all on whether an iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, or (new) iPhone SE 2nd Gen get hacked. Right now the highest confirmed GrayKey hack is an iPhone 11, which wouldn't have the change. We'll see whether Apple got them this time.

Local elections usually have more interesting options for candidates.

> overpriced fake garbage if it gins their next quarter results.

It has been quite a number of next quarters and if it is really hot garbage wouldn't people ditch Amazon? Amazon is not exactly a new entrant to the market.

> They will use their size and wealth to destroy competition like diapers.com and carve our a monopoly, presumably so they can sell worse quality crap at a higher price.

You can't have a monopoly on diapers. If diapers.com fold it would be because people don't want to know 300 websites to buy individual goods than it is Amazon. Oh, and maybe they're more expensive, not less.
I really liked the comment (as did Skye).

Here's what's great about the comment:
0. contains the recognition that switching TPUs over to 1VM (the system you're using now) makes it clear the TPU is just a PCI acceleration card attached to a fat server. The server is fat, by the way, so that the TPU remains fully utilized.
1. contains actual simple code showing how to "do it". A fragment of working jax code is worth a million dollars compared to an idea
2. Giving TFRC (or really, the extended team of folks in the TFRC, XLA and Jax ecosystems) some respect. They work hard and don't always get the attention they deserve for bringing TF kickng and screaming into the modern world.
3. Encourage people to use the free resources and ask for more. People don't realize just how much useful resource google is giving away (just to build a userbase for the product) in TFRC.
4. It's written in a narrative style, not a bug report or boring tutorial.
5. The injected humor improves the comment although I suspect some people do not enjoy it as much as I do.
6. I think more people are going to realize that having each host running the Jax runtime with full python control (Ray mode) is really a killer app. I did some work with this internally at Google and it's a breath of fresh air compared to running tensorflow_std_server and sending it RPCs.

I'm not an XLA TPU hacker- I did that at Google, but resigned recently and focus on entirely different things now. Also, I'm less enthused about Jax proper (even though I think it's pretty cool, I find a lot of it very confusing, having come from an explicit message passing (MPI) world.
Personally I would target XLA high level language directly, or write a Builder on top of that, rather than try to make a system that traces python to generate forward and backward computations (although that's a pretty cool idea).

And finally its nice to see some of the recognition of these things getting outside Google. I keep forgetting that when you're on the inside you're seeing people playing with all the toys that haven't been released yet and some things (like controlling a v3-4096 via a Python notebook interface and Ray) that feel totally natural aren't yet (once, the founder of hadoop said he appreciated that GOogle was publishing papers that appeared to go back in time 10 years)

Some of the most interesting approaches which spread networks across the TPU mesh and the datacenter network in combination with combined training and inference and sparse activations for multimodal learning are still proprietary but I expect those to be OSSed on top of Jax at some point.

>> “In 2006, I pledged to distribute all of my Berkshire Hathaway shares — more than 99% of my net worth — to philanthropy. With today’s $4.1 billion distribution, I’m halfway there.”

So that would imply his net worth is half what it was in 2006. But of course it’s not, it’s never been higher (103 Billion according to Forbes last year). Interesting that CNBC chose not to explore this rather obvious inconsistency in Buffet’s statement.

I appreciate that symmetries are great but that doesn't solve a problem.
What I'm proposing is drastic and radical, but consider how insanely expensive it is to create a multi-platform application. Currently all efforts to bridge the gap between platforms sits at the application layer - flutter, react native, electron, etc. It's a massive effort to build an abstraction on top of each of these platforms, because the only common denominator between them is at the OpenGL layer. I think the common layer should be a couple of abstraction layers higher.

> CD-ROM sub-channels traditionally store metadata, mostly to guide the drive. These aren’t user accessible and conventional readers rarely allow to manually write over them.

Maybe early CD-ROM drives couldn't read the side-channel data, but all drives (readers and burners) after a certain generation can read raw 2448 byte (2352 byte raw sector data + 96 byte subchannel data) sectors. I think Plextor drives might have been the first to support it?

> 5-stage pipeline: Up to five instructions can be executed simultaneously

Although technically correct, that's a bit misleading IMO. The instruction execution is overlapping, but you can still execute at most 1 instruction per cycle (each stage of the pipeline can only execute one instruction at a time). You need a super-scalar pipeline design to do more than 1 instruction per cycle.

The problems with the prequels go beyond just memes. They're quite hated by hardcore fans, as far as I've noticed. The only lessening of that seems to be due to age.

Think about how Lucas himself has fared in the court of public opinion/fandom. He should be a god, based on the original trilogy, but he's treated in general more like kind of a disfunctional uncle at best. There's not much for that downfall to be caused by except for the prequels (and some mosly dumb changes to the originals over the years on rereleases).

The Disney ones, at least for me, they're well acted, fun, the fight scenes are good, they have good story beats, and some interesting characters, etc. The overall plot is certainly a mess, but to me that's at least less of a problem than everything wrong with the prequels.
