This is precisely what we do where I work. We have a service which has just one responsibility - receive webhooks, do very basic validation that their legitimate, then ship the payload off to an SQS queue for processing. Doing it this way means that whatever’s going on in the service that wants the data, the webhooks get delivered, and we don’t have to worry about how 3rd party X have configured retries.
This is already possible on numerous e-readers. I can vouch for Onyx BOOX specifically.

I think Linus Tech Tips looked at one of these, if it wasn't the same it was similar, it was very jiggly and seemed irritating.

I also thought that a Semi Circle chair which started at sitting position and over X hours each second, it shifted X of a degree until you finished lying down so there was constant change. No idea how that would work though.

Standing desk solved my back problems, but totally unhappy with all ergonomic chairs so far (Cheap-to-Herman Miller mainly). I kind of gave up burning money on them because it takes several weeks to get a feeling for a chair.
> On the other side are companies that use cross-site tracking for things like website optimization and advertising, and are fighting for their industry's very survival. That includes small firms like Rosewell's, but also giants of the industry, like Facebook.

The Rosewell guy may not be a saint, but omitting Google from the list as the ones standing to win from privacy features, through ga and the usage they have over the Web via Chrome anyway is completely missing the point of a single party having monopolistic control over click data.

This is heavily contested, yes exercise is healthy but straining yourself regularly also has a cost. Most people either exercise really hard or not at all, I think what’s actually healthy is a moderate amount of exercise and the best type differs with age and occupation.

As far as I can tell if you use a service like ImprovMX (not affiliated, just a customer), this shouldn't be an issue, because the email is forwarded by their service instead of your server. This page seems to suggest that, since they're filtering spam to protect their deliverability rates, not yours: https://improvmx.com/guides/emails-refused-spamhaus/

This also seems like a fairly obvious fix for email providers, to detect forwarded mail and assign blame to the real sender? Idk.

If you have studied world war 2. We can make a more informed guess. The Japanese admiral considered the war doomed from the start, with the only hope being the destruction of all the 4 American aircraft carriers.

The battle of midway instead knocked out of all Japanese aircraft carriers. Unbeknownst to Japan, the United states was already pumping out several aircraft carriers per month and was also developing the nuclear bomb. The only possible change could have been surrendering to the Soviet union instead of United states. However, even that seems unlikely given the N bomb.

To elaborate on this, dashboards are where you go when you get an alert, to answer questions like:

- how widespread is it?

- who's impacted?

- is the alert the root cause, or just a symptom?

Dashboards should tell a story, not just be a bunch of graphs squeezed onto a page. There should be links to drill-down to more detailed dashboards, logs, and traces, to make it as fast and easy as possible to find the fire when you smell smoke, even for someone who's on their first week.

Most dashboards, unfortunately, are useless. But then those have a place too: hanging on a wall somewhere, to show people how not-useless we are.
I disagree, if you're able to understand and do a projection, forecast, risk analysis, sunk cost analysis you can easily get finance on your side.

The issue is that IT/tech does not know business key words or excel spreadsheets, and finance does not know tech. Nowadays it's getting blurred with data scientsts and excel crunchers that can do a mean macro (and know more than Vlookup!)

Finance people love automation.
Finance people love excel.
Finance people understand sunk cost fallacy.
Finance people understand change.
Finance people need help to embrace change, to guide decisions and make sure it's the right "tech" for the company.

Many times the right tech is O365/Sharepoint/Flow automation, or nintex. Yeah, but

it is not souless, it guides the entire company, it ist he company pursestrings.

Get them on your side, understand how to read a P/L sheet, what FPA does and you'll not only earn respect, you'll have your name said at all the exec/leaderships meetings and you'll be loved.

That's what I do in companies (consulting, self run) and w/o a good background in finance, and tech I wouldn't be where I am today (major in stats, tech was hobby, stats/math is everything etc.)

So I fully disagree 100%. You had it so close with SAAS and capex vs opex, but you missed it. But yes it does move expenses around and opex is easier to navigage then a full sunk cost capex.

Some of it is intentionally protectionist policies. As a country Canada can’t let the US dictate everything. If US milk becomes a necessity in Canada then that is one more way the US can exercise leverage over Canada. Given the last few years under Trump, I think some policies that insulate Canada from the nonsensical policies of an insane US president are quite responsible.

A city such as London (where I'm at) generates about 3600 tonnes of wet mass poop a day. Thanks for making me work that out... .

Given poop isn't even a main constituent ingredient in new soil, but rather forms the 'flavouring' for the development of the biological and mineral matter otherwise, I'd suggest a well-developed bio-recycling infrastructure could be quite productive.

This isn't even factoring in food or farm waste, etc.

This. Early trees sequestered a whole bunch of carbon in their structure (and there wasn’t efficient methods of breaking down lignin at the time, so the carbon stayed in the ground instead of rotting and returning to the sky). If we build long-lived structures out of wood or other carbon bearing materials whose carbon source is the atmosphere, we’ll be doing the same thing as trees but with human civilization as the organism.
Thanks, I missed that info.
I work in an org with a similar setup where there is no name-spacing on git repositories. We end up prefixing the project name with our org name.

ex repo name is:

Honestly, it is not a great solution because the org name has changed a few times and we have repos under 3-4 different naming schemes.

Wireless charging is a dumb gimmick. You still have to put the device on the charger, so what's the point? They could just as well have put flat contacts on the back of the phone and dispensed with the inefficient induction parts that are wasting space, time, and energy.
You should try FFXIV. It's not just a fad - it's pretty much the "MMORPG" experience you're looking for. There's really nothing like it at the moment.

Coincidentally, player numbers over the last two weeks have risen so much that it's hard to find a world to make characters on.
My guess is that it would have taken a couple more nukes to settle things. Whoever got the Bomb first was always going to win WWII, if only because there was so little social or ethical opprobrium associated with atomic warfare at the time.

If forced into an existential conflict by a string of Axis victories on all major fronts, we would've turned most of the planet into a smoking crater, and there would have been nothing Japan, Germany, Russia, or anyone else could have done about it.

Everything leading up to August 6 was just so much posturing.
Thanks Jonatron!
There's a much better approach than /events or webhooks: add synchronization directly into HTTP itself.

The underlying problem is that HTTP is a state transfer protocol, not a state synchronization protocol. HTTP knows how to transfer state between client and server once, but doesn't know how to update the client when the state changes.

When you add a /events resource, or a webhooks system, you're trying to bolt state synchronization onto a state transfer protocol, and you get a network-layer mismatch. You end up with the equivalent of HTTP request/response objects inside of existing HTTP request/responses, like you see in /events! You end up sending "DELETE" messages within a GET to an /events resource. This breaks REST.

A much better approach is to just fix HTTP, and teach it how to synchronize! We're doing that in the Braid project (https://braid.org) and I encourage anyone in this space to consider this approach. It ends up being much simpler to implement, more general, and more powerful.

Here's a talk that explains the relationship between synchronization and HTTP in more detail:

That's a short window. CI takes many minutes for me so I keep a window open in view on my desktop and either start working on other things or contemplate what was just done taking a mental step back. That can sometimes uncover extra cases or clear up concepts that can then make the structures or performance better. A quick game of something is also a nice mental distraction/break. A brief walk outdoors would be best but I haven't a place to go--a coffee shop or around the block could work.
Anti viral treatments are really hard to come across, it’s not like the world hasn’t been testing everything we could think of to use as a treatment, it’s just that the vast majority of chemicals that we know of or think might work don’t. Truly effective medicines are rare, finding them quickly is rarer still. Vaccines are also vastly cheaper as an intervention that treatments, currently Phizer is selling one dose for $19.50, for remdesivir it’s more like $500 for one dose and one patient needs about 6 doses for a full course of treatment. So the economic incentives are very much in favor of coming up with new treatments, rather than vaccines. It’s just really hard to do.
I believe for the vast majority of people, buckling down and doing some hard exercise would make a world of difference. The greatest obstacle to that is a mental one, reinforced by culture and the medical infrastructure.

The time I lost my faith in Firefox was when the CEO of Mozilla got a huge pay increase, whilst firing many technical people at the same time. How can a tech company improve their product without those technical people? Oh, never mention the ever-decreasing number of Firefox users. Weren't the C-level people responsible for that?

Anyway, that was the moment when I realized Mozilla was just another company, not a flagship open source advocator or something. They're not even pretending anymore. Look at the sneaky attempts to integrate ads on Firefox. Look at the user experience being degraded every year. They are not listening to me, so I decided to not listen to them.

I would love having a slightly thicker phone. The iPhone 12 Pro Max is good enough for most days, but having around 25% more battery would be welcome, especially for weekends when I'm not sitting at a desk with a charger. Just make the entire phone the thickness of the camera lenses, and that would probably be sufficient.
I hope we don't go down the path of dismissing post-COVID symptoms as mental illness.

Yes, some patients with post-COVID symptoms could simply be presenting with mental illness. However, we can't simply dismiss the patients with measurable symptoms like cardiac irregularities, exercise intolerance, orthostatic intolerance, and other physical issues that only occurred after the COVID infection.

Modern medicine (in any country) is not well equipped to handle complex disorders that don't yet have specific medical tests. It's common for doctors to reach for mental illness as an explanation, to the detriment of patients. Let's not repeat that for post-COVID.

> I would highlight that both Microsoft and Apple (to a lesser extent, mind you) also operate their own ad platforms.

Do you mean that before when you said "every single browser developer that doesn't own an Ads and Analytics suite" you meant to exclude nearly all the browser vendors? Google, sure, but also Apple, and Microsoft. And then Opera, UC Browser, Brave, DDG, ... I think maybe everyone but Mozilla and Vivaldi has an ads product?
For a project as massive as a browser, being open source is vastly irrelevant. Only major companies are able to truly maintain a browser these days. You can fork Chrome, sure, but you won't get anywhere with it. Chromium is Google.
Perhaps here would be a great place to let a few hundred developers know.

It's worth differentiating between allocation and flow - a million dollar spend can be hard to allocate to Project X, Y or Z. But it is usually simple to see it got spent on Developers, Sales people, rent, hardware licenses etc.

Actually vulgarity was invented (and has historically been used) to improve the weight of such messages. It works too:

"Writing in the journal Social Psychological and Personality Science a team of researchers from the Netherlands, the UK, the USA and Hong Kong report that people who use profanity are less likely to be associated with lying and deception." [1]

As someone who has worked in quite a lot of web projects for the last few years I noticed the big difference in requirements.

Back when I started it was all about supporting IE7/IE8+, Firefox, Opera, Chrome and Safari (with an old iPad as a test device).
A lot of polyfills were used to ease development and keeping older browsers alive. Testing on IE was quite painful (missing proper devtools, weird "Unknown Error!" alerts, slow scripts crashing the whole browser, browser implementation bugs, headaches with library conflicts, etc).
I remember testing against hobby browsers like Pale Moon because things already worked fine.

Nowadays it's just all about testing in Chrome and with less priority, Safari (mostly on iPad, iPhone). The requirement of testing against other browsers were dropped by most of clients. If a project has spare time fixes for those browsers are an extra. Most analytics tools don't even show anything else of Chrome/Chromiums and Safaris (desktop and mobile).

So, even older engineers are slowly moving along with the newest generation and just test on Chrome and sometimes Safari.
This days I just use a Chromium derivative, Vivaldi. It does the job and the UI speed has been improving quite a lot (but still lags a bit behind). If the project has some spare time I like to do some cross browser checks (most times, things just work fine). Sometimes I find an engineer using Firefox but most of the time they have a Chrome browser opened to test their work.
How does default.nix handle dependencies? From what i've (i'm on NixOS) seen you just see something like `gcc` or `openssl`, with no clue what version.

Tbh i've found Nix very very lacking in the dependency department. What i _want_ is something like Cargo.toml from Rust (or maybe packages.json/yarn.lock if you're familiar with NodeJS), which compiles to a Cargo.lock. Instead what i have is a name for a dependency with no clue what version the writer expected, or what version my computer will install.

Pulling a new commit from nixpkgs repo can lead to chaos and random things update with no rhyme or reason.

Flakes, in alpha i believe, is the first thing from Nix that actually felt repeatable. But even with Flakes i still don't know what version anything is, but at least i know what concrete commit sha worked for me and can always revert as needed.

My next NixOS install will use Flakes with a very granular approach. The OS on one package ref, and other packages all have their own isolated refs. This will be verbose and bloaty, but being able to update Vim without my OS going crazy will be really nice.

I'd still like Flakes to behave more like Cargo.lock, but it's at least progress.

Apple is effectively a small country, the individuals inside should be nominated.
Some 80 or so years prior to Caesar's assassination, a consul fomented a mob to kill a Tribune (G. Gracchus) who was pushing hard for land reforms. Historians often cite this as laying the foundation for the Roman revolution because it normalized violence as a political tool. It was followed by proscriptions and the Catilinarian conspiracy in 63 BCE.

What if Octavius never traveled to Hispania? Caesar may well have still adopted his nephew in order to make him his beneficiary. What would have happened if there were no Octavius? Possibly Marcus Antonius would have consolidated power.

Would we have no transistors today if Shockley hadn't worked at Bell Labs?

I guess my viewpoint strongly biases me towards seeing continuity and underlying processes. For every tipping point, there was a pre-existing process; for every process an event you can treat as a "handle".

Flat contacts would eventually get dirty and you’d have to line them up properly. Also, they wouldn’t work through a case. Maybe wireless charging is slightly less efficient, but I don’t really care when I just set my phone on the charger overnight.

The reasons I like wireless charging are that it keeps things neat, and I don’t have to fish around for the cable—I always know exactly where to set my phone down to charge.

I also appreciate the wireless charging mount on my motorcycle, I suppose for similar reasons.

It’s not a necessity, but I appreciate having it.
