If that implies that you're taking potential jobs away from people who would be better qualified, then absolutely. If the alternative is to just not hire anyone, then I don't see the problem—at that point you're basically paying friends to keep you company at your job.
You’re missing my point.

I’m not against browsers having features. They can add whatever they want. Devs can target them too.

But “the web”, the platform, the standards process, the language specs, the method of their development is all about maintaining access for the widest range of users for the longest time possible. Or it was. There’s nothing about it stopping you from restricting your own market to support users and devices you want to support… but insisting all mainstream browsers support all the brandest-newest features because ONE of them added it does a disservice to the platform.
Or they hope to have a garage someday but don’t today. My next car might be a hybrid, but I can’t really consider a BEV until I see that a large majority of apartment parking spaces have chargers.

The article seems to mention problems with AUFS, overlay and possibly overlay2 as well.

However one of the things that i haven't quite understood, is why people use Docker volumes that much in the first place, or even think that they need to use additional volume plugins in most deployments?

If it's a relatively simple deployment, that has some persistent data and it's clear on which nodes the containers could be scheduled (either by label or by hostname), what would prevent someone from just using bind mounts ( https://docs.docker.com/storage/bind-mounts/ )?

And if you need to store it on a separate machine, why not just use NFS on the host OS to mount the directory which you will bind mount? Or, alternatively, why not just use GlusterFS or Ceph for that sort of stuff, instead of making Docker attempt to manage it?

For example, Docker Swarm fails to launch containers if the bind mount path doesn't exist, but that bit can also be addressed by creating the necessary directory structure with something like Ansible - and then you're not only able to not worry about volumes and the risk of them ever becoming corrupt, but you also have the ability to inspect the contents of the container storage on the actual host. Say, if there are some configuration files that need altering (seeing as not all of the containerized software out there follows 12 Factor principles with environment configuration either), or you just want to do some backups for the data that you've stored in a granular fashion.
Then why did Activision Blizzards stock just drop 8%? Clearly the market believes they wont recover nicely after this.
Those used to more bondage-and-discipline languages (hi, Java!) might feel revulsion at the lengths to which this has sometimes been taken, but per the quote above this is less an indictment of the language and more of its less methodical programmers.

"Hi, Python!" the author meant.

Let's just accept that Perl has significant readability issues -- far beyond ASCII rot and the pitfalls of TMTOWTDI -- please, which is why it is such a visceral turnoff to many programmers.

Some IKEA desks are Linak but I'm not sure if Bekant is.

I got it by reaching out to a local distributor of Linak products in my country as I couldn't find any online website selling it at the time. You might try that, they might even know if it's compatible (or at least would know how to check).

Oh, I would suggest getting the new controller instead of the dongle since that one supports both BLE and it has physical buttons which is always great.
It’s called head - and it’s a key calculation in if a dam is worthwhile. The pipe feeding the turbine can be quite small for a lot of power if the head is large.

You could also use a small pressure vessel/sealed tank, and pump in water with a hand pump. You could simulate nearly any sized tank that way too.
Yes, those are a bit more nuanced. As noted in the sibling comment, part of this is also coming across as someone who listens when people voice their concerns.

For the dress issue, it really just depends on the context and your relationship with the person. If it's your -friend- who you actually know makes custom dresses as a hobby, why would they be upset at a (genuine) compliment? My friends who pay attention to clothes and I give out (genuine) compliments to each other all the time. With a stranger I don't do that unless it's like something that truly stands out. I've been genuinely complimented on my coats and blazers by random strangers numerous times and I think nothing of it. But social environments like bars and cafes are quite different from contexts like office environments, particularly male-dominated workplaces.

I don't know the exact reasoning about the "ethical workplace" training, but I imagine it's a blanket thing since some people just don't know how to give compliments without being creepy about it, or just use it as a proxy to hit on the person. Of course companies large enough for ethical trainings would want to play things as safe as possible. Idiots ruin things for everyone else.

Anyway, I find it hard to believe anyone would take offense at something like "hey, did you make that dress? That's awesome!". But this is also why working at a large corp is probably my least favorite option when selecting a job.

"Males would get very direct, sometimes harsh, and detailed negative feedback, whilst women would get the far less usable vague sugar-coated version of it."

This is definitely an issue and I don't really know how to deal with it other than not hiring people who would take offense at something like honest feedback. That is more of a company-level cultural issue where people are afraid to give honest feedback lest they be accused by an idiot of being <X-ist>. I don't think that culture would develop if they had higherups who they could trust to fairly evaluate the situation. Higherups who are not afraid to go "yeah, no, that's not being <X-ist>, that's just the same level of feedback everyone else gets" if that's truly the case... or higherups who reliably can go "yeah, there seems to be a discrepancy here based on gender and we should take appropriate measures".

...this is a lot of words to basically agree that sometimes edgecases require some additional pondering. Context is very important, and knowing who you're dealing with is also very important. None of this matters if you're dealing with people who assume everything is done in bad faith and you're out to get them, etc. Life is short so just say "alright", and move on. Now, if multiple people start saying similar things... then maybe it's time to do some self-reflection.
You might be too young to know, but there were some famous holdouts living around Mt. St Helens in 1980.[0] They didn't believe any of the "stupid scientists" knew if the volcano was going to erupt. The holdouts are only famous because they are dead.

Its really difficult. The exact placement of individual trees in the game matters a lot and it affects line of sight, which is a key component to Dota. If you flipped the view, not only would it just be weird, but what is visible can change I think based on the camera position. A tree that blocks a path in one camera position doesn't block it in another. A single tree's position sounds trivial, but navigating them is crucial at mid and high levels of play.

> How do you know we need to care?

The temperature difference between now and the last ice age, at a time there was 3km of ice over much of the northern hemisphere, and sea level was 120 below current average, was 5°C. Current predictions for the temperature increase in 2100 range from 2°C, if we make a huge effort to quickly and drastically reduce CO2 emissions, to 5°C if we keep going as we are. The reality will be somewhere between, I'll let you decide what you think is likely. We don't know exactly what the consequences are gonna be, but we know they're going to be dramatic, and if you think they won't affect you personally, you're probably wrong.
"Screw 'em" sounds like an end unto itself, especially when climate justice demands the least influential people to embrace poverty.
This is really perceptive and on point. I think something a lot of casual observers miss about Dota is it's a game of momentum with very small edges that accumulate. Compared to the other MOBAs it's the game that punishes you for a single error far more harshly.
The proposal that you linked is all about portable identities, tied to public keys. Is that really necessary for Element to host a server on a user's domain?

I would have thought it would work just like outsourcing your web server or your email service. You generate a DNS name and point it at their IP address. Then they get a certificate and start serving traffic for your domain. Easy peasy.
I don't think that's the case as per the press release: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/Investor/earnings/FY-2021-Q4...

> Revenue in Productivity and Business Processes was $14.7 billion

vs

> Revenue in Intelligent Cloud was $17.4 billion

The first includes Office 365 products and the second includes Azure.

Several years ago they were lumped into the same figure but it's pretty clearly separated out in this reporting. Whether or not reporting on "the cloud" is a function of these two areas isn't something I'm aware of, but the source document doesn't indicate as much.
Cool dataset! I wish there was a similar dataset for Premier League football (or even international soccer). Does anyone know of a good resource?
Technically YT Premium includes "4K" which matches the price point of Netflix's 4k option. YT seems to have to spread their share around to more people as well, as a common observation for content creators is that Premium views offer much higher revenues than ad-supported views.
I suspect the majority of it is that a lot of managers are finding themselves at loose ends. A typical manager in an office environment spends a lot of time interacting with the people working under them. Now they're not able to do the majority of their work and... the people under them are still performing, often better. It would take an exceptionally self-aware person not to flinch from that truth.
It's not inaccurate though... The hull shape does reach a point of instability, at which point the hull shape changes.

> But the "we must do something" crowd can't even seem to accept nuclear energy, which people can interpret as a sign that preventing climate change is just an excuse for policy goals already desired for other reasons.

I mean… I’m finding that difficult to argue with. The rest of ”We must do something” is usually “even if it’s the wrong thing”. To which some people could say is nuclear, but I agree it’s an obvious future if it really was all about science.

Now I’m struggling to think of examples where the proposed solution isn’t a tax plan or an outright re-envisioning of society.

I’d like to find an example to see if the deniers still oppose it. I guess there are carbon scrubbers and planting trees. Are those things opposed more than they are pushed for?
I did check out ClickHouse but I haven't gotten a chance to load more real data to give it the full test. It's definitely on the todo.
Your post was, "Never threaten a Clinton (I anticipate downvotes.. and they'll be reinforcing my position that they're off-limits)". Your position, AKA existing ideas, are "Never threaten a Clinton", and "they're off-limits", implying that they have special and unfair power/treatment in the political and legal world, but specifically with regards to the specific outcome of the specific case of Shkreli. The parent's criticism was in regards to your attitude on downvotes, which makes sense independent of whether your position is justified or true.
From the cash flow statement for the last 9 months:

66.2B spent on repurchase of shares

For context, Apple spent 16.1B on R&D. It’s amazing they can self-fund this kind of growth while still returning so much capital to shareholders.

If only Chrome implements that feature, it’s not “a modern feature” for the web. It’s an “experimental technology”. It’s only a “modern feature” when several browsers implement it.

No, we don't need humans to record something in writing. But the point I was trying to make, is that maybe there are climate change sceptics out there who will discard any and all evidence that wasn't recorded in writing by humans, as "unreliable scientific mumbo jumbo". But they can't discard this particular evidence for having that particular fault (although such folk will no doubt still end up denying this particular evidence, on account of its other faults, of which I admit there are a number).
I’m in my late 20’s, though that does sound like a nice situation to be in if you’re a single 30-40 something year old. Being in my mid/late thirties and single kind of scares me (mainly because most of my friends/peers will likely be married and have kids); it’s nice to hear there’s a place where you can live a single lifestyle and not feel left out

"Me-too" or not, it is approaching $20b/year in revenue, growing quickly, and about to the point where it could start throwing off a lot of cash.

I don't know how you quantify how "into it" they are, but seems like they are at least a little bit?

When mathematicians developed monads, they were doing abstract algebra. They were not using them as a kludge to (for example) impose sequence on functional programming.

Having to use monads for sequencing is something that happens in Haskell and not in Rust.
It's no longer an interwoven hyperlinked system of documents, it's not longer the web if this happens: it's just pretty pictures, unscrapable, un-user-scriptable, with arbitrary actions undernearth. There's no rules, no medium here: just animated whatever, pixels blasted in your face, with no structure, no documents, no system underneath. This would never ever be anything like the web.
Why not just pare down the assets by $9B to reflect the expenditure of acquisition?
Intriguing. A more discrete combinatorial approach could imply a corresponding proximity to programming language theories and type theories. This may be a bit far-fetch, but is there any chance introduction of parser/intrepreter-like constructs can be of useful significance?
I don't see how this is a productive point. "Democracy is best" is 1) what the US government wants you to think, and 2) an idea that they can manipulate the information environment to promote.
It is amazing how we can go about our life without any strong motivation, and when something tragic happens, people often comment "This was the best thing that's ever happened to me". As it turns out, lack of success is just a lack of genuine purpose.
I don't think it's precisely that people like people like them - it's that they like people who approve of their choices. The easiest way to signal that is to make the same ones.
That's general smack talk, which can be brutal, but is besides the original point. The bigger point is that if a woman's sex is revealed, say by using voice chat, then it is inevitable until they are harassed and insulted for being a woman and receive misogynistic insults. Do you understand why that is different from general insults?

Yes, but the abilities and item actives are all quite similar in broad categories -- dash, stun, slow, etc. Same with items -- broad categories of damage, magic, health, armor, etc.

To OP's point, you don't have to know the entire 100 hero roster and all of their abilities to have fun, just the general things they can do "Oh I just got stunned by that ability, might want to dodge next time"...

Obviously to be good you need to know them all, but not to get started and have fun at lower levels of play.
They've been known to front load order / commit with cash upfront to key suppliers to both lock in supply and basically fund supplier capital purchases.

Are you SURE that they haven't done that with TSMC?

They can back up their commitments with cash to help suppliers deliver the capacity / volume they need (which is high). This then pays off in terms a more predictable supply chain (ie, they want to launch iphones in fall with generally absolutely cutting edge process nodes).
> But why store the signature in a blockchain?

For the same reason as certificate transparency logs; you want to avoid trusting something that has a history of certifying false statements. You also need to handle throwaways, so it's definitely not sufficient (and might turn out to not be necessary once a complete solution is found), but it does seem useful.

Reading Chinese news [0] on this:

> 据彭博社消息，字节跳动2020年广告收入1831亿元。 抖音为字节跳动贡献近60%的广告总收入...另外，海外短视频平台Tik Tok目前仅占字节跳动广告收入的一小部分。

Translation mine: According to Bloomberg, ByteDance's 2020 ad revenue was 183.1B RMB [US$28B, seems to be from 1], with Douyin making up 60% of that [corroborated by 2]... Overseas short video platform TikTok also makes up a small portion of that.

For growth [2]:

> 而据传，2019年字节跳动全年营收约1400亿元，其中广告收入约1200亿元

Translation mine: ByteDance's 2019 revenue was 140B RMB, of which 120B RMB was ad revenue.

So Douyin makes 60% * US$28B/year ~= US$17B/year for 2020 and 183/120 ~= 53% growth (2019 to 2020).

There are hull forms (without the canting keels I mentioned) that have positive righting moment through 180 degrees. Life rafts are universally designed this way. For boats it's just not that necessary ultimately, as capsize is pretty dang rare on keel boats as a baseline. Vendee Globe et all are hardasses about it because they know if the worst happens, there's no rescue possible on a short timeline.
Same reason Lance Armstrong eventually went down.

This is really interesting and not something I was aware of. (Although now the fact that an hour of MiniDV footage is 12GB makes more sense!).

I wonder if this is what DV Rescue (linked in my above post) is doing? If it's not doing this, it's certainly something that it should be doing.

You're also 100% spot on with the idea of using different drives to recover "tricky" tapes - I have two MiniDV camcorders exactly for that purpose. But I was doing it the "long" way of trying a tape in one, and if it didn't work well, trying it in the other. It didn't occur to me that I could try combining the results of both.
I know this is unrelated, but the closed caption's text accuracy is embarrassingly poor for an organization of Reuter's stature.
There is some stuff, for sure - regexes were somewhat more advanced than in competing languages, last I checked. But most of the other benefits it does provide either (1) mostly YAGNI (2) risky to use (3) impediments to readability.

As well as being just plain complexity bloat, and impediments to the maintainability of the language as a whole. Lo and behold, the interpreter is VERY complex, and the number of people who understand its intentionally arcane inner workings, is, correspondingly, quite tiny -- which has been a significant drag coefficient acting against its developmental velocity forward evolution.

Which has a lot to do with why (despite its being truly great in the 90s and aughts) we just don't hear very much about it anymore.
Note that the background for this is that Kary Mullis believed AIDS wasn’t caused by HIV and was therefore angry at Fauci and the entire medical/scientific establishment for linking HIV and AIDS.

If you look into the academic papers published by Aono, you'll see that he goes into a fair bit of detail regarding both of those points: how he determined consistent historical peak bloom dates, and how he calculated consistent Gregorian dates from the ancient Japanese dates. Not being an expert in these things myself, I consciously chose not to try and explore them myself in much detail.
> Riot and Blizzard both have large flagship franchises that they practically decorate their offices around, statues and all. When I was talking to recruiters in the past, Riot stood out as one of those "don't bother applying if you aren't absolutely shitting passion for our games out of every hole" as culture fit.

I interviewed at Riot when I was trying to move back to Saint Louis. I could not muster up very much enthusiasm for League, and you could just feel the room shift into "just get through this interview ASAP" mode.

Can't help but feel I dodged a bullet.
