Windows' File Explorer briefly flirted with WebDAV (and still sort of supports it for backward compatibility reasons, but using it is harder than ever for new things and the buggy WebDAV implementation is mostly frozen with its early oughts idea of WebDAV quirks). It never supported FTP, because it skipped FTP for WebDAV.

Now that File Explorer has a 9p file server (from Plan 9) built in for WSL1/2 support, I wonder if you could hack together good Plan 9 style FTP support for File Explorer. I don't think the 9p server is that easy to talk to directly, though. (You could of course just do a Linux mount to FTP in WSL and maybe accomplish that through two step indirection, but I'd imagine doing something more directly in 9p would be preferable.)

TIL: TRAMP (Transparent Remote Access, Multiple Protocols) is a package for editing remote files [...] Whereas the others use FTP to connect to the remote host and to transfer the files, TRAMP uses a remote shell connection (rlogin, telnet, ssh).

If China uses 3900TWh a year, that would be twice the global consumption by your claim that 110TWh = 0.55% global. Of course that number is about an order of magnitude off.

If Bitcoin being as useless as it is consumes 0.55% of global electricity isn’t alarming I don’t know what is.
I would imagine having a classifier for something so specific would be detrimental. I have no horse in this race, but I questioned how extreme the car's movements would have been without intervention.

I think the FDA's normal process is extremely flawed and would like to see more expedited trails that allow early-opt-in and continually expanding test groups that ramp up in size as efficacy and safety is proven.

It's criminal that the FDA has effectively sat on mRNA tech for decades while watching people who could have benefit from it die. The FDA deemed mRNA tech unsafe to give to much smaller groups of people already directly affected with various mRNA treatable diseases yet now after a few months of testing they have amazingly deemed it safe to give to to the entire world. The risk calculus just isn't consistent.

I'm curious what you all think about this. Is nuclear power something we can come to rely on? Or is the radioactive waste too risky for widespread use?
But why are they "burned out"? Is it because they're a software developer or because they live in an advanced post-industrial civilization in the midst of a global pandemic? Could they feel burned out today but not tomorrow? Has the sun come out in the UK at any time in the last two weeks? Do all the participants even agree on the definition of "burnout"? Were there five other similar studies done that we don't know about that were discarded because they didn't produce the desired click-baity conclusion?

Why are there only 4? Are these like Platonic forms?

I see that sine are "no harmonics", sawtooth are "all harmonics", square are "odd harmonics" but a triangle wave is also all odd harmonics. Okay.

Why these 4 forms? There are lots of other forms, like a cycloid.

Last question: is a sawtooth heard as an octave lower than a square wave, because there is only one pulse per cycle, whereas a square has two pulses per cycle?
Yeah, maybe agency. I don't know. It helps that I'm fairly social for an introverted engineer. One of the biggest systems change I ever made was related to a legacy url that the main page had to use. It seems like the type of thing that should be simple to make, but due to the sheer amounts of redirects and multiple systems involved it was really painful to change the primary domain. Only like 2 people in the company had any idea the amount of effort necessary to avoid breaking countless things. But when I finally flipped the switch I spent the entire afternoon running around the company and showing random people I knew in other departments the home page. I got a lot of "huh?"s. literally no one was impressed. But, I can have an infectious enthusiasm, so as I pointed to the URL, and said "look! that was actually really hard to do", people would at least come around and say "ok? good job?". They still weren't particularly impressed, but they at least understood it wasn't trivial. Couple this with a good PM who I knew was also evangelizing some of this stuff, and you can get a lot of agency over time in an org.

So maybe the trick is evangelizing? I really don't know, I just know I've been successful, often in spite of the organization I was in. I'm also constantly aware of the amount of luck involved in everything I do, so it's always hard for me to believe that I was the important factor.
> China as of 2019 was ~39,000 TWh

That's more than the whole world (per your own numbers, 110 / 0.0055 = 20,000). I am seeing more like 7,500 TWh for 2019.[0]

Also, 1.4 billion people live in China and they make a huge amount of the world's durable goods, so it makes sense that they will consume some power. Bitcoin does jack shit.

I will be breaking contract law. EULA's still hold teeth without copyright because they fall under contract law, not copyright.

Edit: I would like to add something about licenses and contract law.

While FOSS licenses can also be contracts (https://writing.kemitchell.com/2019/03/09/Deprecation-Notice...), if copyright does not apply, then users (and companies) do not have to accept the license in order to use the software because they already have access to it since the source is open.

However, with closed source software, the user does not get access until after they accept the EULA. This means that full contract law applies to the user, regardless of copyright on software.

That is why closed source software wins if copyright does not apply: because it makes an end run around copyright anyway.

If you’d like a no-setup, no-tools, no-cost way to just start messing around, the WebAudio API[0] isn’t a bad place to start.

It has its shortcomings, but in many ways mimics the logic of a real synth. They’ve got a synth[1] tutorial that works and if you search “webaudio synth” a bit, there are other helpful write-ups to start learning or playing with concepts you learn about from other resources.

This is a very naive take on the risks of infection. Just because you survive doesn't mean you're getting out unscathed[1], and it's also a pretty entitled take on access to health care. If everyone followed this advice we'd be looking at full ICUs and a lot of people asphyxiating in hospital hallways again.

Concern trolling about the approval status is also just that. The risks are pretty well known at this point and approval is a forgone conclusion. If hundreds of millions of healthy vaccinated people aren't enough proof of safety for you, then final FDA approval won't be, either.

I'm confused with claiming obscure emacs or vi commands for TRAMP, I'm from the emacs side and as soon as I understood the file path scheme (e.g.: /ssh:$host:/path/to/file) I didn't have to do anything beyond that.

I would say that the dev client/server setup you're describing and what TRAMP provides are different things overall as well. TRAMP really just provides a way to get a file from a remote, edit it locally, and on save write it back to the remote system. I would not consider it a valid use case for remote dev especially now with how prevalent things like LSP's are and I don't know of a major mode that is designed around a remote LSP I'd just do X forwarding or some other screen share at that point. I would agree that overall it's a gap for emacs that VS Code does better.
It’s only easily treatable while there is spare health system capacity. When the system is overwhelmed they’re only going to treat a select amount of people who need treatment.
n=8?!? That's... um... nice for those eight people, I guess. It's sure not much to draw conclusions from, though.

That makes me really sad, not because due to this case specifically, but the web in general.

Practically any web nowadays try to be Facebook-like, giving fast to consume content to users, and having an unlimited scroll of pictures and autoplaying videos all over the place.

Reddit even copy some shady or dark patterns like forcing you to login in your computer or forcing to install the app in the phone just to see some post somebody sent to you. At least this can be solved just entering "old.reddit.com", but we don't know when this possibility would disappear.

I understand their website is theirs, and they rule how the things works there, but that kind or opacity makes me to never use those websites and recommend people to do that.
Let's look at the two possible timelines here:

At some point a particle pops up into existence in B, increasing B's pressure.

Some time later, a particle from A disappears, decreasing A's pressure.

This pressure differential would cause flow from B to A through X.

Alternatively, a particle randomly disappears from B, decreasing B's pressure.

Some time later, a particle appears in A, increasing A's pressure.

This would cause flow from A to B through X.

The more particles that cross from A to B via Y, increasing B's pressure, the more likely it is for particles to pass from B to A via Y, keeping these two effects equal.

These two pressure differentials would cancel out for large numbers of particles.

You've essentially just hooked up the system to itself, but at a future point in time. Unless the overall pressure of the system is changing, there is nothing to induce the flow. If you are increasing the pressure, valve Y is essentially just a standard one-way valve.
I think a serious problem here is that he thought he was free from the treadmill, but it wasn't true. He just so happened to be at a certain rung of the ladder along with all of his peers and as he retired, it felt like he climbed even further and had "made it" in a way they hadn't. But he had really hit the pause button on his accomplishments, so as his peers entered the next life phase of increased career security and financial options, he was left behind and suddenly found himself low on the ladder looking up. Much of his personal angst came from this.

Yup. It started with conflating CFR and IFR (picking CFR of course because it is the bigger number). Comparing raw numbers between two regions that report their data completely different, etc.

Insurance companies will be all over personal data (search, location, and profiles) so that they can statistically discriminate against their clients beyond what they have been thus far able. HIPAA is fairly toothless in many ways, and doesn't even cover cases like this.

There's a pretty good write up on the topic [1] over on arstechnica. Author of the above is clearly overreacting or trying to ride some kind of rage-train to more clicks.

Especially the quote from one of the authors of audacity which states "telemetry collection is optional and configurable at any time"

Wether it's opt-in or opt-out is a smaller issue IMO. Like the article on Ars also states, even Firefox telemetry is opt-out, and you don't often see people raging about FF not being privacy sensitive enough....

I don't agree with the last statement.

Just because you have the legal right to be an asshole doesn't mean you are an asshole. And conversely, the law can be broken, and clever loopholes can be exploited. There may be consequences, but it doesn't you will get repaid personally.

For me, privacy policies are just indicative. I try to approach the problem considering incentives, risks and benefits. What are the consequences for breaking the promise, for me, and for the company.
For the company, imagine yourself as a shareholder, you want to maximize your profit, you know that by breaking your promise customers will be unhappy, will they go to the competition? is your image a valuable asset? is the short term profit worth it?
For you, what is leaked? How will it affect your productivity and security? Can you easily switch to a competitor? At what point too much is too much?

If I only cared about legal constraints, I would get into every scam. I mean, advance fee fraud is illegal, so that Nigerian prince cannot take my money, right?
As someone that rarely works with Python lists, as opposed to numpy arrays, I was pleasantly surprised to see numpy does what I would expect in providing a mergesort option. I'm surprised Python doesn't, other than via heapq and only implemented in Python (according to my reading of the post and a very quick Google search).

Oops, just for fun the numpy documentation currently states: "The datatype determines which of ‘mergesort’ or ‘timsort’ is actually used, even if ‘mergesort’ is specified. User selection at a finer scale is not currently available." Awesome ...

Also, apparently mergesort may also be done using radix sort for integers "‘mergesort’ and ‘stable’ are mapped to radix sort for integer data types."
I think this is also getting at the difference between pub/sub and state synchronization. While one might think they want the former, what they really want is the latter. Get some state and receive updates continuously rather than deal with unreliable stream of updates

Why state government can't move as quickly as the private sector
That's true. I think it also ties into best practices such as hexagonal architecture, DDD, and the "functional core, imperative shell" idea. You design the core of your program as data and pure functions, and then call that part from parts of the program that use IO. Maybe something like when scheme is used for teaching could work, with different "language levels", where some part disallow IO and reference cells. Or maybe a different file extension that's checked by the compiler to be pure. This could be a great way to teach functional programming but also software engineering.

> To mitigate both of these issues, many developers end up buffering webhooks onto a message bus system like Kafka, which feels like a cumbersome compromise.

Kafka solves exactly the issue that the author is complaining about. This is a safeguard to ensure that data isn't dropped in the event of an issue, and provides mechanisms to replay events.

The tradeoff between pushing and polling have been argued since forever.

In other news, mechanics who work with bolts often do so with ratchets. This is a cumbersome compromise, just give me Torx fasteners!
It seems to me that you could build a protocol where normal syncs happen through webhooks where each webhook event refers to the event id of an immediately previous event. If the system receiving notifications doesn’t have that event, it makes an API request for all events between the latest event it has and the one it just received.

long polling is not good for serverless consumers. webhooks are great for compute on demand so we should work towards that (it's cheaper coz it's more effecient).

You do not need storage in the producer AND in the consumer, you just need a queue in the producer. Yes, even that is annoying, but the suggested architecture will still lose data if the long poller is down unless there is storage in the producer... so nothing significant has really been solved
Yeah, I'm fine with them taking up more vertical space, but it's the reduction in horizontal space that most hurts usability, especially with more icons that show up now next to the favicons, further reducing available space. It's still better/preferable than Chromium/Chrome's awful shrinking tabs horizontally down all the way to just favicons when you have a lot of tabs, but it's getting close to feeling that cramped.

I think with a right a strategy for retry then webhooks are great. On my email forwarding app https://hanami.run we offer both method to give user access to their email:

1. webhook with retry up to 7 days.
2. a REST api to fetch all data

Sending webhook out properly require lots of effort, especially idempotent key concept to avoid duplicate data. And control concurency to avoid swarming the webhook endpoint.

So at the end of day, both are require same amount of resources, either on the sender side or the receiver side.

Vaccination means you don't need to limit exposure so much, which reduces selection for casual transmissibility. It also means the existing un-mutated virus has far less of an opportunity to "experiment" and mutate further.

Keeping those connections open probably isn’t super cheap and complicates deploying rolling updates - you’d need to kill all connections when you update and that would require some sort of RPC (so that you only kill those existing connections after they’re done sending in-flight data).
