I like the mention of WET--Write Everything Twice. I use this in my notetaking system sometimes.

There are places in the notes where it's ridiculous to have to open up a separate note file for some directly-relevant information.

If managing the separate writeups gets too tricky later on, it's easy enough to implement needed changes at that time.

If I don't need the full writeup in both places, I do tend to date-stamp the shorter version and note where more details can be found though, as a useful middle ground.
Meanwhile for half the sale price of one 1200 sq. ft. 3/2 townhome on the Peninsula I could purchase 3 4-unit multifamilies on mortgage, each grossing about $50k/year in rents.

Will the appreciation of these properties be the same as that townhome? Almost certainly not. But money has time value, and the ancillary costs of ownership in CA are far greater.

After their noon rendezvous: One lady traveled some distance in 9 hours, and the other lady traveled some other distance in 4 hours. Before their noon rendezvous: you switch both the distances and the ladies. If x is the number of hours before noon that they traveled, you thus get that the ratio of 9 to x (what the first lady covered in 9 hours, the second covered in x) is that of x to 4 (what the first lady covered in x hours, the second covered in 4). Thus x is the geometric mean of 9 and 4, or in other words, x=6 and sunrise was 6 hours before noon at 6am.

Why can’t we we reduce cloud provider margins and use that money to fund it!

For people who come from tropical climes, such as Hawaii, Singapore, or subtropical Australia and India, the Bay Area does indeed have "seasons".

But the majority of Americans and Europeans hail from places that have much more delineated (and varying) weather across the four seasons, the Bay Area seems lacking in comparison.
I've found that a lot of "logic" problems on standardized tests like the LSAT or whatever are really just puzzles that force you to permute through the problem space and apply rules. I was able to do this pretty quickly when I discovered Prolog (very bored during covid). I've become convinced that there is likely at least one person employed in writing these tests that generated these questions with the same technique.
Have you tried to context switch between 100k native threads? Good luck with that, in the mean time Go has no problems doing that with 1m goroutines.

My very first mentor when I started my IT career 30 years ago told me “your job is to make sure the backups are working. Everything else is icing on the cake.” Still true.

But one caveat: your back ups can get screwed up if you back up data that has already been encrypted by ransomware. One easy way to defend against this is to have a tier 2 back up with a time delay, eg it backs up the backup files from a week ago.

Tear 1 backup is just normal back up. You test it frequently of course to make sure that you can restore it but you don’t have to do any extraordinary work to detect ransomware in tier 1.

Tier 2 backs up the back up, but only after a certain number of days have passed. That number of days is the window that you have to detect that ransomware has infected you. If you ever find a ransomware infection, you isolate and turn off tier 2 immediately to preserve a known clean state, and once you have everything rebuilt clean and patched, you restore from tier 2.

You use tier 1 for restores in non ransomware situations because it’s necessarily more up-to-date.

Yeah, Lit is cool & futuristic. However, it's built for ES2019. It requires some effort to make it compatible with previous browsers: https://lit.dev/docs/tools/requirements/

In my opinion, this is the future. Especially, Native Web Components will take over in this decade. CalDOM's long-term plan is to seamlessly merge with native web components when it's widely supported.

You can't fix already broken processes. VMware solved this 20 years ago. It is pretty simple to restore VMs on different systems, you don't need to worry about the ball of mud when you can duplicate it.

The full range of defensive components in SGTs is unknown, but according to some media reports the vehicles are equipped with autonomous weapons systems and other "high-tech surprises" that allow them to independently engage and repel attackers even if all human crew have been killed or disabled.

This doesn't make sense. If you repeal 230, Facebook doesn't gain anything from being a common carrier. Repealing 230 solves the problem you seem to be solving, which is that the companies can no longer do any form of moderation.

The problem there, of course, is that both the average citizen and the average lawmaker want the companies to be able to do some forms of moderation. Which brings us back to the original question: Do you trust Pelosi and Cruz to define a reasonable framework for internet content moderation?
Resource constrained organizations will almost always choose to invest their resources to get MORE resources, not protect against the chance that something bad will happen.

This is a good point but it points to something some might not like. Resource constrained warehouses might on skimp on covering the risk of fire, resource constrained restaurants might skimp on sanitation, Resource constrained power companies (PG&E) might skimp on line maintenance and let whole towns burn to the ground (Paradise, 80+ people, Berry Creek 30+ etc) and so-forth (up to every company being too "resource constrained" to pay to stop global warming). In cases of this sort, you have companies risking both their capital and the life and limb of average people.

We really have companies following this resource constrained logic and horrible things have and are happening. Economists describe this dynamic in terms of "externalities" and letting it run rampant pretty literally has in world on fire (and drowned under water, etc).

Because programming languages are not the only thing I want to learn. In fact, I know that the time required to really learn all the things I'd like to learn far exceed my lifetime. So if I could learn about a bunch of them quickly and then decide on which ones to focus later on, that would be awesome.
If you detect it far enough away you can just spray paint it. Change the albedo on one side and let the solar radiation pressure push it away enough that it misses by a safe margin.
I sympathize, and good for you for not doing it!

If I can suggest something to look into (i.e. not recommend!):

I use NeilMed sinus rinse which is just saline and bicarbonate (so pH balanced). Use distilled water to mix it. You can buy it at most drugstores.

This is not sterile unless you sterilize everything, but at least there are no funky chemicals.
By "happen", most of us mean "happen in reality", not "happen in fiction".

Although, it might be a bit relevant. You feel cooler when you tell people what you do if it's fictionally cool, even if in real life it's not all that great.
No dispute there. That’s why you should push for accountability and transparency. When we discover groups like NSO, we (the public) should be able to use FOIA like mechanisms to query these cloud providers and check if they are doing business with these criminals. We should be able to see who exactly approved their application and why they didn’t fail whatever standards we (the public) have decided that cloud providers should uphold. Maybe the standards had gaps or maybe there is corruption. Either way, the public has a method for feedback into key parts of society: cloud providers.

> I know a lot of folks who work every day in the trades and to a person (don't worry, 'tomc1985, this isn't me being woke, I'm acquainted with women in the trades too) the best folks I know have no stake in gatekeeping. They're excited to bring in new folks to the profession--granted, it helps that they're cheaper to start out, but the folks I've talked to know that eventually they'd like to retire and people are still gonna need drains snaked--and liberal with teaching what they know. My electrician walked me, as a "muggle", through my house's wiring until he was confident that I would be able to understand what my house was doing and explain it to somebody else.

Yep, this is a very deeply ingrained part of trades. Apprenticeship is a legitimate portion of one's career, and as such people further along usually have an appreciation for apprentices and apprenticeship. I've never met a legitimate (meaning, person that was trained appropriately and continued to work in their profession) tradesperson that kept secrets.

> The guy who acts like 'tomc1985 describes is the guy who does not get called back for a second job. In tech, we used to call them BOFHs and make fun of them while they thought we thought they were cool. Now we just don't hire them.

Without getting hyper-political, I fear this is the same problem as the "incel" topic of late. Getting rejected and then doubling down on a persona, rather than introspecting on to how or why a portion of that rejection was warranted, I think causes huge huge problems. I think the "hardcore nerd" persona is similar, as "hardcore nerds" usually don't make it very far. If you go through FAANG companies, you won't find a ton of people that fit the bill. Maybe some kinda-weirdos, but the higher up you go the more comfortable people are going to be educating and communicating (except maybe Amazon). Do you think it's valuable, when shit's super important and hard to do, to condescend to those around you? To pad your ego? I don't really think so.
You are letting your own prejudices against your idea of "nerds" get in the way of logical thinking here. You biases are showing. "Hardcore nerd" as used here is not what you seem to think it means.
Yes, so if you got a time machine and eliminated Isaac Newton...

A world changing discovery or invention may seem like a unique magical achievement to the average person, but the question is, how likely is it for the second most suited person to accomplish it? Is it likely that there's a huge gap on average?

Depressingly few organisations I've worked in or with have a clearly defined set of RPOs and RTOs for their essential systems, and similarly few have regular processes to test their backups and archives to either confirm the process works, or to determine how long a recovery would take.

This stuff is all conceptually very easy to do - but politically extremely difficult to agree on the definitions, and then obtain the resources on the ops side, presumably because it's yet another of those things that fits in the category of being hidden and non-urgent, and therefore a low priority, right up until the moment it isn't.

Academics don't make any money from sales of paywalled journal articles. If you click a link to a journal article and hit a paywall, it's usually because whoever shared the link has institutional access to the journal and forgot that the paywall was there (since it effectively isn't for them.)

The way parents in South Bay raise their kids might seem hardcore, but it gets results. Many families come here from overseas with nothing and spend many years working in dismal jobs with low pay, all to give their kids a chance at success. We have some of the best schools and some of the highest rates of attending elite universities in the entire country. The FAANGs are stocked with graduates from local high schools. Many families have parents who work at Apple and other well-established companies. We live in wholesome, family-friendly, welcoming communities. If you ever decide to have kids, we would be happy to welcome you back to the area!

All of these are standard terms.

Establishing a (standard sized) ESOP is good for the company long term.

If you would like better/different terms, you'll need at least one other firm to offer you a term sheet as leverage.
You don’t have to, but I am, and I’m encouraging others to as well. It’s not a crusade, it’s calling something what it is. Car crashes aren’t “accidents”. Oppsie we just had a fender bender where 3 people died. It was just an accident ya know?

It’s marketing and branding to downplay one of the greatest sources of premature death, wasted money, and negative externalities that exists. That way we can keep buying cars for no good reason and commute while we sit at home and isolate ourselves from our fellow Americans when we aren’t driving.

Responding to the person your responding to with “I don’t like it!1!1!” when they provided, ya know, some reasoning, is kind of a poor response. What’s a good reason to call them accidents instead of wrecks besides “this is what I’m used to”?

I’m open minded.
Many news organizations are making this change - it’s not that person’s personal crusade, it’s an important part of improving road safety to stop treating crashes as inevitable.
That still wasn't an attack, though. (Though it might have been as dangerous as if it were...)
Tip off a newspaper. If they don't take it, try another. Generally, the journalists will have training in how to approach it without legal exposure and/or have it vetted by their publication's lawyers.

Moreover, there is really no such single thing as "climate science"; there is atmospherical physics, chemistry, meteorology, physical oceanography marine science, biology, paleobiology, the list goes on.

Use google ngrams to look for "climate science". It basically doesn't occur before around 1982.
A lot of pro-urban discussions come from the perspective of single people and young couples. Exciting, spontaneous, etc.

I would appreciate more perspectives from parents and families. Do you use strollers (and take them on the bus) or just carry babies everywhere? If you need to buy things at the market, do you take your two-year-old or leave them at home? Do you buy furniture or only rent furnished places? If you have a big family how do you find a big enough place? Do kids practice their musical instruments at home, or does that bother the neighbors?
I don't have supporting evidence, and I'm not about to look it up right now. I think you're in the same boat or you wouldn't have replied like that.

I don't think it's controversial though, isn't it commonly believed that increased transparency means less corruption? It might not be true, but if it's the prevailing belief then the burden of proof is in fact on you.
For comparison, ClojureScript, another language that compiles to JavaScript, adds to the bundle size, but in my experience, it's mostly because of the runtime (core functions and data types) because the Google Closure compiler optimizes the initial transpiled JS.

I would guess running the TypeScript output through the Google Closure compiler (or adding similar optimizations directly to the TypeScript compiler) could make TypeScript bundles comparable to JavaScript bundles or smaller. It looks like people see significant improvements running TypeScript output through Closure compared to just WebPack [0].

>if a "keyboard" suddenly is presenting itself as storage, that causes a prompt

I'm not clear on how you would know it was the keyboard changing identities and not just a new device. Does the USB protocol provide anything where you would know, assuming devices can change Base Class, VID, PID, and so on?

For that matter, I don't think it needs to change. It can just emulate a hub and present both.

>an aside but can we please stop with using "accident" as the default term to describe mayhem involving motor vehicles? This simply dismisses the many risk factors as being simply inevitable even though there are more than likely preventable causes to address.

the word accident by no means conveys inevitability to me.

ac·ci·dent
/ˈaksədənt/
noun: accident; plural noun: accidents
1. an unfortunate incident that happens unexpectedly and unintentionally, typically resulting in damage or injury.

So.. unless we're talking about intentional automotive manslaughter or some equivalent, I think 'accident' applies well to 'unintentional,unexpected,unfortunate incidents', which there tends to be quite a few of related to motor-vehicles.

What terms do you want to use? mayhem and murder? Those both describe motive that just isn't present in most cases of motor-vehicle accident.

* violence : behavior involving physical force intended to hurt, damage, or kill someone or something. *

'violence' conveys yet another motive, an intent to hurt. Another no-go as far as suitable candidates, as far as i'm concerned. Automotive accidents do not usually come about as a result of a negative motive towards another human.

They're accidental, in most cases.

> Well it should 'just work', Hit the download button, install, plug it in and forget it.

That's exactly what it does. When software like this is packaged, the maintainer will normally place a dependency on any other software that's required for it to work, like ratbagd. ratbagd is a D-Bus activated service, so it will be started automatically if any program tries to use it. The result is that a normal user should never see the error message.

> Again the reason why people continue to use Windows.

Please don't bait OS flame wars. I doubt anyone chooses their OS based on its ability to change the DPI of their gamer mouse, but this seems to be a nice piece of software for those of us who have a reason to choose Linux. It's hardly the fault of Linux or libratbag that the manufacturers of these mice have chosen to use proprietary protocols and non-cross-platform software for configuration.

It's possible that the driver software works in Wine, but I'm not about to test. I don't even like installing horrid gamer drivers on Windows.
If the camera has sufficient dynamic range, then it can give a sense of the effect, even if it's not as cool as the real thing. I thought I remembered reading that small sensors are worse at dynamic range than other cameras though, so a phone picture is least likely to capture it compared to other devices.
It can indeed! Both lisp and prolog are homoiconic :)

Companies for whom a data-loss will cause significant distress/damage to the public should be penalized for that loss, up and including jail time for their officers.

Everything harder and more expensive is better... in complex, complicated, and intricate systems. We improve tools for brain surgery, yet expertise is still required to do that job. If we dumb that down too much, so that an understanding of the brain is no longer required, there will be a point of outcomes becoming poorer instead of better. The same is true of complex networked systems, storage, and data.
I believe these are referred to as formal theories and are sort of the root connections between philosophy/epistemology and maths.
This is besides the point. Just because the Middle East has been in turmoil since it was neo-colonized after WW2 doesn’t mean it’s okay for massive corporations to exert this much influence.

Also, while we are on this subject, your language has some pretty orientalist vibes to it. I wonder who you think created these problems and who feeds them today?
A lot of traffic accidents are... accidents. People aren't necessarily driving recklessly just because the damage is serious (or minor). Sometimes you get sun blinded, your hand slips, you discover you're epileptic while driving, etc.

When people engage in reckless endangerment, there's a crime for that: reckless endangerment. When the driving was stupid, but not to the level of criminal, there's a lawsuit for that.

"Accident" also very nicely preserves the assumption of innocence until proven guilty.
This is so true. It’s about putting as many good vibes and good feelings into the interview as possible while also seeming competent. “Do I want to work with this guy?”
