Many people consider one of the roles of government to create markets for technologies like you're describing which would otherwise have no markets. Markets are quite good at finding good solutions.

Pursuit of profits isn't at odds with addressing climate change, we just need to make it profitable.

We've been breaking heat records all over the world every year for the past two decades. This isn't new at all.
Sure, but business isn't just doing what your doing now to make money. It's making sure you can continue to make money in the future. For that you need to have excess capacity to be able to transfer non-productive people in to productive roles without an extended lead time. People, departments, assets, etc all fluctuate in their levels of usefulness and productivity with ebb and flows of a business.
Cheats are about two things: money or prestige. People want to get back at the players who so rudely beat them normally, and get high competitive rankings that make them look better than other players in that games community. Or, they use the cheats to create high ranking game accounts to sell to players who want to look good, or they simply cheat to win prize money.

It should go without saying that this kind of activity destroys the interest in games affected by it. People don't like playing against superhuman enemies and having their progress impeded by it.

It doesn't make sense that it would be enjoyable to play except that you can enjoy making money or making other people feel bad.
They should stop mining when the price of electricity gets into thousands of dollars because then they'd be better off selling the power instead.
Unavoidably it is, though, because the person that defines whether you work there defines what the work you do is.
I tried growing a romanesco and it ended up looking almost exactly like a cauliflower. Then I let it grow more and it lost its densely packed look - it looked like a cluster of flowers. Then aphids destroyed it completely.
I've been burnt by that convention pretty regularly:

(1) build automatically scans and adds all files in a directory

(2) I write a quick script foo.py in the directory to check something

(3) Boom, binary contains foo.py

I try to manually enumerate all files whenever I touch a build file.
yeah no. A machine does not have motivation. It does not have urges and desires. It may solve a problem perfectly buy it’s gonna be a while until they can grok why solving problems is worthwhile to begin with.
I dunno, if “looked through social media posts of my partner with their ex” is stalking then there are a lot of stalkers out there in the world in new relationships.

Don’t get me wrong, turning that into a story with a few too many true-to-life details would absolutely weird me out too. But I’m not sure she’s a stalking villain.

Simulate Delay/Latency in Your APIs
As a frontend developer or QA, we want to test our website performance in different network conditions and with different API latencies too. Testing certain components of web applications requires simulating delay in one or more web app components.

This is required in scenarios like:

- Test performance of your web app on a slower network

- Test behaviour of your app when one or more APIs respond slow (API Latency has gone up)

- Check if any race conditions exist in your JS Code

- Test the impact of slow loading of external resources (JS, CSS, Images, etc) on your app.

Here's an article [0] that focuses on the different approaches that enable developers to simulate network delays in the API requests or while loading JS or CSS resources. There are various methods available to simulate the network conditions.

- Throttle Network Traffic using Browser DevTools Network Throttle feature [1]

- Publicly available APIs which respond with delay and using a Browser Extension to redirect your actual request to those Public APIs

- Chrome Extension which adds actual delays to the network requests

The article [0] talks about the above approaches and limitations of each approach - Adding Delay to Network Requests. This also explains which approach you should prefer and in what testing conditions.

TLDR; Here is the conclusion

- To test your entire application on a slower network, prefer using the browser's network throttling feature.
- To add delays to external resources like CSS, JS, etc prefer using Server Side delay.
- To simulate delays to your API requests (& AJAX requests) prefer using Client-Side delay using the browser extension.

Have your ever simulated delay in your web app testing? Was Chrome DevTools Network Throttling helpful in debugging your issue? What tool did you use to solve the problem? I am interested in knowing the related problem statements and the creative solutions.

To prevent privacy issues from affecting you, it is best to either prevent the games from having network access, or inspect the code of the game to ensure it doesn't access the network, or both.

Lots of fiction writers use real people as the bases for characters; that doesn't make them "creepy internet stalkers".

Cat Person was a work of fiction. There wasn't much ambiguity about that.
Interesting detail, thank you. I never did a dive into how well Zoom optimized for power consumption. Good things to keep in mind.

I think this is great. I don't need a stock API yet but I'll keep this in mind for the future. As others have said, more info on the site would be great, but it seems like this is just getting started, so I'm assuming we're looking at the first alpha version of this.
The offers for ridiculously long term (2+ years or lifetime) discounted service seem like bets that most users are not going to be long term VPN users. If the objective is to make a user pay $60 for a product they’ll use for a week or two and forget about, just extend the term out as far as you want to make it seem like a better deal.
I always saw it as green 'plus signs', as in your health (or hit points) are increasing.

I've literally used them when developing a video game before, and that's what I was thinking as I implemented them.

I've also used the red cross when making a game before without even thinking about a possible trademark or protection, it was already a generic symbol to me. Come to think of it, I just used it again in the art for a board game I was making. I guess I should change it, but I'm not sure to what (I guess a green cross?).
I think you have the logic backwards there. It seems that comment was arguing that scientists want to falsely suppress the 1913 record, so they can also falsely push climate change science. It's wrong, but it's internally consistent.
Nice. I've been wanting to do the same thing for a long time. I have a friend who did it on motorbike and from what they said visas and vehicle papers were a major hassle. Would you recommend taking a car with the power of hindsight? Were you able to sell it for a decent price?
Isn't it another case of asymmetric warfare?

People infuriated by a journalist's lie/misrepresentation (either actively or by omission) cannot counter it on-the-spot (how could they address material printed or broadcasted by mass-media?) and think that they can only aim at the source. Without any live report the journalist's comments are less convincing.

Also: some consider journalists are representatives/relays of the powers-that-be.

Zero Hedge was great when they started with like a dozen writers. Once everyone left, it turned into garbage.
I've looked at tape backup. It seems to have 2 problems. Tape is re-writeable which means that a ransomware attack could overwrite the tape.

Tape is wildly expensive for some reason. This seems odd to me. I wrote a tape-based archive system in the 1970s. Most technologies have gotten cheaper. Tape has not.

Isn't it strange how we keep breaking records

Nope. We tend to report on the records that get broken. With only one exception, the news generally doesn't go around saying "And another day of the status quo. Here are all the records that stood today without being broken. Here is everything that went unchanged."

That one exception that I'm aware of was when some reporter decided he didn't want a hostage situation forgotten and he began starting all of his reports with "Day xxx of the Iran Hostage crisis..." in order to have something "new" to say about it every single day and not let the public forget there were American hostages still in captivity. I have heard this annoyed the fool out of the American government and forced them to actually deal with it and not let it get quietly forgotten as such things tend to get.
> It sounds like the main argument you're making is that having a record wouldn't catch every single edge case. But maybe that's okay? If you get 90% of the value of preserving the language and you miss the 10%, it's probably still worth doing vs. trying to artificially keep a language alive.

The problem is, it probably won’t be 90/10. I worry that it may be more like 50/50 or even 10/90, though to be sure I’d have to ask a linguist who’s actually worked in the field.

> If you read about this language, it emerged from Old Norse. Do you think there was some kind of "Preserve Old Norse" movement?

There’s a difference between evolution into a new language and language death. The former makes no difference to language diversity: the old language is just as interesting as the new one. (Or, in many cases, it increases diversity, because one language can split into multiple daughter languages.) The latter decreases language diversity, as a spoken language is irretrievably lost.

> I just don't see how an effort like this could possibly succeed. If you make kids learn it, the chances of them retaining fluency in it are pretty low I'd think? They'd have to be using it a lot. And I think most people would probably rather their kids learn English as a second language.

I don’t disagree. Language revival rarely if ever succeeds. This is why it’s important to do as much linguistic work on each language as possible while native speakers are still alive — simply making records of the language is not enough.

This argument 'it selects for intelligent devs' needs to die.

it just selects for people who have hipster level enthusiasm about function programming. That doesn't mean proficient.

Many talented developers have a life of their own, and can do well without changing the language.

That's why Joel said 'smart AND gets things done'.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_information_theory Never heard of that before, thanks for the hint.
It does not in fact make untrue and unfair accusations about a real world case. It is a work of fiction. Until this Slate article came out, there were, like, 4 people in the world that know about the story's inspiration.

We Are Entering a Completely New Part of the Quantum World
Since someone else linked some data on Mexico already, I will add link some data from India [0].

The interesting thing about India is that states apparently can choose their own medical policies regarding their fight against COVID. So some states chose to use Ivermectin (against WHO recommendations) while others follow the WHOs recommendations. The states that used Ivermectin have shown a dramatic drop in cases and hospitalisations.

To me it seems there's very little interest by the WHO to properly test the efficacy of Ivermectin against COVID. As long as Ivermectin is not properly tested, the WHO can claim that "Ivermectin has not proven to be effective in the fight against COVID", since that would then be technically true.

However outside of clinical trials it seems that Ivermectin has been effective both in prevention of COVID cases as well as helping people recover from COVID.

And I know this will sound like a conspiracy theory (and I guess at this point it is - since I have no proof), but I can't help but think that Big Pharma has a great influence on WHO policies and Big Pharma is not really interested in seeing a cheap medicine like Ivermectin becoming popular in the fight against COVID.

I use earthly. I would not use it instead of bazel, but with bazel. You can imagine earthly working by building a DAG of docker commands (RUN, ENV, ...), similar to how bazel/make make one on your source files. If A depends on B and B changes, B then A are built, etc.

So keep bazel for building and testing, but you can use earthly to run above it so every bazel build is in a fresh docker container. Example:

# All image deps
RUN apt install -y bazel gcc

build:
RUN bazel build

test:
FROM +build
RUN bazel test

release:
FROM +build
RUN bazel package
SAVE ARTIFACT AS LOCAL ./a.out a.out
SAVE IMAGE cool-app:latest

Basel build runs before the other two targets, but testing and packaging run in parallel. I do this for elixir projects -- npm install assets and mix deps.get in parallel, then copy both results into the final image.

Edit: you can also inject arguments and the dependency graph will fork when needed. So for example, I can specify multiple version targets and earthly will only start running in parallel when it hits the build arg line (since subsequent run lines will have different build arguments)
Of course. He kissed women in the audience left and right. But he was fully clothed, which visually, is a very striking and obvious difference.
So he went to all the trouble of issuing an executive order so he could...create a committee with no real teeth (and declare that a bunch of stuff was "the policy of this administration" without actually doing anything about it). Exciting stuff. I'm sure no one's happier than the monopolies that this is performative rather than practical.

Good, we agree, no more tacti-cool cosplaying in IT.
There is something slightly demoralizing about writing JS as if because of the language itself there is cruft, ugly workarounds, and type confusion from day one instead of developing over time. That said I find it effective and doubt it will ever be replaced by a more pure clean language.

I'm sure this might happen somewhere, but I grew up in Florida and it never happened in Orlando. I would always have been happy for the pool to be warmer.
There's definitely an issue with notifications in things like Slack/Discord/Teams, but it's a symptom of a larger problem software where everything is competing for attention. Social media apps do it because it's part of their business model and built in to the addictive-by-design need to get eyes on ads.

Chat systems aren't (yet?) dependent on ad revenue, so they don't need to copy the behavior of social media, but, possibly because they use the same operating-system level notification APIs, that's how they act.
That was a magnificent piece of writing. I will definitely be pondering human vs animal consciousness this weekend, because of it.
Scientists (as well as farmers) in 1913 knew perfectly well how to record temperature. Digital measurements only matter in precision far less than 1 degree F. Mercury is very consistent in how it responds to temperature.

Not only was it likely recorded accurately, it's extremely unlikely the 134F record was off by 4 degrees or more. It also had 5 days in a row above 129F that year.

How disruptive depends on company culture. If the expectation is to respond immediately, it's no different than a physical interruption. On the other hand, I leave Slack notifications off and only use it through the browser. Usually, I only notice the tiny glowing favicon once I'm largely out of the zone anyway.

Very quickly being a 10+ year period after 64bit was made standard. MacOS was never good for gaming, no point keeping dead tech on life support for literally decades if it isn't bringing much value.

The future of gaming on mac will probably be Apple Arcade and streaming services.
Going by the what is implied, it stands to reason that everything is meaningless except for those that represents or aids in a significant improvement in our lives or change our fate as a human race.

This is neglecting how these developments came to be. We don't know when Einstein was born that he will go on to discover a world changing equation and theorem. If we don't give diversity such as these minority languages to thrive, we may simply be creating an environment that is so sterile and constant that any new innovations have little chance of happening from a lack of stimulation.
Earthly has been great to use. My one issue is with docker. I would greatly prefer to use podman but it seems there is no support for it yet. Every issue I have had with earthly is with some weird quirk with Docker I don't have with podman. For the most part I can get around this with setting DOCKER_HOST, but it is still weird to depend on dockerd when I would expect podman to work fine.
It's interesting, but I don't think strange in the sense of being inexplicable.

Hot is an obvious side effect of global warming. Cold may be counterintuitive, but "global" warming (as opposed to local warming) refers only to the global average, and in Earth's case exacerbates both extremes.

With sports, as with any human endeavor, athletes are standing on the shoulders of giants; advancements in things like nutritional/medical science, food availability, fitness/training techniques, technology of gear/clothing/accessories, tactics and strategies in particular sports, and financial investments in sports should all contribute to continued broken records approaching the asymptote imposed by human genetics.
It's not poor data. It's cherry picking.

There are WORM tapes. Tape no longer has economy of scale so it didn't get cheaper while other technologies did.

Rob pike have his taste, and build Go, in my opinion in the spirit of C, a pragmatic rather than theoretic effort

Go success, I think was not something that google really pushed for, it just happened because it seem many developer seem to prefer to use simpler languages, and deal with complexity "of using" a language, rather than learn a complex language and deal with the complexity "of learning" a language, developers are more engineers and craftsmen, rather than scientist
