Depends on the particular FF and APS-C cameras.

MOST FF sensors have bigger pixels (larger pixel pitch) than APS-C cameras. Noise tends to increase as pixel size decreases. If you crop a FF image down to APS-C size, it'll end up with lower resolution. So the narrower angle of view that an APS-C gets you gives an apparent zoom that can't be achieved with such a FF sensor. Whereas a FF sensor can take wide-angle shots better and has lower sensor noise.

There are exceptions to this. Notably the Sony a7R III, a7R IV, a1, and the Cannon R5 are FF cameras with small enough pixel pitches that they're actually higher resolution after cropping to APS-C than most APS-C cameras. So in these cases, there's no difference between shooting with the FF camera in APS-C mode and an actual APS-C camera.

I think there is a fruitful discussion to be had about whether the "social contract" is legitimate or simply a post-hoc justification for the status quo, but that seems like a grandiose topic for a discussion about the specifics of national laws.

The more accurate answer is: because the state holds the monopoly of violence and will use it against you if you don't follow its laws. Resistance will result in punishment.

The reason courts have the power to make you do as they say is that if you don't, eventually armed people will come to your home and incarcerate you. Short of an armed insurrection there's really no way to avoid this unless you're Jeff Bezos (and even then you won't get away with everything but the consequences will likely be less unpleasant).

They are a strong name in Enterprise Resource Planning software, both internally developed and acquired. Besides licenses, they do a lot of ERP hosting, likely recognized as "Cloud" revenue.

(Disclaimer/Source - I've been a PeopleSoft admin/architect/ops working for IBM for 20 years; PeopleSoft was bought by Oracle in 2005; all opinions my own etc:)

And what is the punishment for operating without a license? Seems like a roundabout way to implement a fine.
While from purely monetary perspective this seems like it tips the scales more to a balance, from systematic perspective, this is more corruption on top of corruption.

You have politicians colluding with businesses to save them a billion in taxes, contrary to the intent of the law. Then you have the same politicians colluding to basically go pirate and surprise fine the same business a billion for some semi-arbitrary violation out of nowhere.

There's no system here, no law, just both sides one-upping themselves in being absolute fucking assholes.

The result is instability and environment not conductive to businesses or the people that makes them up.

Think about it, how come everything is fine, and then out of the blue you get sued for a billion? Was there a warning? Was there a grace period, a chance to rectify things? No.

This is not law enforcement, this is law abuse. It's like the US cops that stop random cars, and if the driver carries cash, they just take it under bullshit pretense.

We're moving towards an anarchy, under the guise of justice.
I believe they're saying that it _doesn't_ have negative returns. The fine is under 1 billion dollars, and the poster you replied to is saying they're "reasonably certain that [Amazon] earned more than $1B by using this targeting information."

So the poster is saying that they believe it was worth it for Amazon to break the law and pay an $888 million fine.
why should there be a building height limit? if there is demand, the market with sane regulation(protection from foreign government interference and hostile manipulation) will provide as much housing as needed with as low prices as possible, driven by investors maximizing their profits from land investments

possible solutions for the inaccessible housing issue:

- make it so the people profit from housing prices rising -> minimize building and housing regulation, forbid foreign ownership of the land(like at least 50% should be owned by a local) and by taxes and loans make it more likely that a lot of people will own some land then small percentage of the people own a lot of land, specify that all those rules are going to apply for 20 years(number of years calculated to the point when the land of the nation is owned by the nation and more or less even), and it will be a completely free market afterwards(so investors are not afraid to invest) — in a society with high income inequality will require either high taxes for landowners and/or long time to achive high level of land ownership

- government built, controlled and owned housing for the people(like singopore), ­— has a high potential for corruption, any country with weak institutions has a huge risk to end up without housing and with high corruption, income inequality etc

React is a remarkably well-focused library that can work just fine without DOM, itself having no relationship with or dependency on DOM or the browser whatsoever.

If you want to render into DOM, you’ll need to use another library, ReactDOM (notably not a dependency of React).

However, rendering to DOM is not the only way to use React. Ink[0], for example, allows to create command-line program interfaces out of React functional components and JSX. It depends on React, but not ReactDOM.

Whether React internals rely on OOP and to what extent I don’t know, but I can attest that after embracing functional components in a somewhat complex app I’m working on I haven’t written a single class.

I assume at a certain pack scale you just have to assume fires will happen on a regular basis. You need to make sure the fire doesn't spread, doesn't pollute too much, and goes out by itself without needing emergency services etc.

At that point you can just have a dashboard with "percentage of fleet offline due to fire damage", and in your annual maintanance you replace those.

Using DaisyUI for three projects currently and LOVE the hell out of it. Don't get me wrong I love some TailwindUI as well, but the simplicity of Daisy is fantastic. Winning combination for us: DaisyUI + TWCSS + AlpineJS + Go Fiber server & templates.
Usually the burden of proof is with those making the accusations
They have a cloud offering
Userspace ring buffers.
Absolutes are the problem. DaisyUI gives the flexibility of using Tailwind directly or higher level classes.

Tailwind is great but sometimes you end up having 10-15+ classes for basic components that makes the code harder to read and reason with.

We should have utility classes and composability, but relying on them exclusively is also not necessarily the best way either.

Yeah, everyone has a backlog like that. A lot of them have very little or negative business value in retrospect, but we can't know that now, so we prioritize, and it's a good thing, because if we ever actually got most of that backlog done we'd have seriously diminishing returns to the point where we would not even be covering our wages by the end.

If you don't believe me, and your system allows this to be reconstructed, find out what your full backlog looked like about 10 years ago, find everything on there that still hasn't been done, and find out what percentage of them actually would have significant business value today.

I know this is a gross generalization but we are dealing in generalities. This is what I have found across many projects. We are not always great at predicting what we will need, and the backlog is BY DEFINITION prioritized. By the time we get down to the lowest priority stuff the statistical expected value gets low enough that we are not even covering our own wages.
Many companies see Amazon as a competitor and don't want to give them money.

I use to work for a large health insurance company and much of the executive/leadership teams would openly disparage Amazon in meetings. Amazon doesn't even sell health insurance (not yet at least) and they were overly hostile due to PillPack alone.

It was one of the reasons why that company chose GCP over AWS. I imagine this scenario isn't uncommon.
That’s true. There is actually a lot of Chinese buying interest in my own Seattle neighborhood, but then I talk to who are buying…Googlere and Amazonians like me and my Chinese wife, it is the tech money that is driving real estate prices, at least here.

Yes, I very much have to implement my own text search. There are many custom elements, so I would have to roll my own anyways at some point.

In my experience, I think the official documentation is just an introduction and overview, and that you have to read the source code of Slate when you're serious about doing development using it. This is not necessarily bad, since the source code is pretty readable, and the fact everybody seriously using slate is reading the source increases the number of contributors.
Yeah I agree, there's something about holding a book in your hands. I also think it helps hold my focus and lets me retain what I read better.
They are pivoting their enterprise db and server (sun) business into a cloud services business.

No one ever said it could! The article the medium post complains about called it a "content warning" not a "trigger warning". The "trigger" terminology was used by the medium post's author, setting up a bit of a straw man.

I am someone else who apparently never understood what technical debt was supposed to mean.

I've always assumed engineers (myself included) write code to the best of their abilities to solve a given problem at the time. But we all know that, over time, features and such get added to the code base and it is stretched beyond what it was originally meant to do.

That the code base would should be refactored to better accommodate these new features that have been glommed on is the tech debt. There was nothing poor about the original implementation and the additional features were added with the understanding that the code could not be rewritten from scratch.

I may be splitting hairs here but I want to make the distinction that at no point was an engineer making poor choices.

I want to point this out not to sound defensive, but rather to make it clear that when I use the term "tech debt" I am not saying it in a castigating or "accusational" way. There is no shame in tech debt.

(BTW, other engineers I've worked with, will add a "BOGUS" comment next to any line of code they are in fact embarrassed by with some explanation like "using very small number here, render crashes if border is zero thickness.". Do a search for "BOGUS" in the sources to discover you BOGUS debt.)
Surprised about this one:

> Start with users who have both passwords and access keys. If you recognize them, send an email asking them what the keys are being used for and whether they can be disabled. Chances are they left a script running somewhere.

Are there really devs out there who use exclusively AWS console and not CLI tools? In my experience, AWS console is useful but inadequate for many day-to-day tasks. For example, S3 is way easier to use via some sort of FUSE filesystem. Cloudwatch logs viewer interface is atrocious, etc...

And if you are a part of the team it is often much easier to check in “create_foo.sh” script with complex command line than write a wiki page with careful screenshots for each step of resource creation process.

>>why anyone does business with them, but they are likely to be around for a long time

The answer is partially in the question.

For large enterprises where large part of IT is a strict cost centre - the "boring" areas of HR/Pay, Financials, CRM, ERM, SCM, etc - predictability, support, longevity, reliability are far more important than sexiness, new technologies, or even immediate cost of license compared to cost of change and uncertainty.

I didn't see the author's stated OS they use for their NAS, but depending on what it is, yes. {Free, True}NAS are dead easy to use as long as you stay inside the confines of the GUI, and hugely reliable. Anything else is no man's land. Running ZoL and you did a routine kernel update? Enjoy your new read-only ZFS pool!

I have a setup very similar to the author's, with a bunch of Debian VMs on top of Proxmox. Can confirm that even with Packer and Ansible handling base images and configuration, weird edge cases pop up that take quite a while to track down.

I don't think there's people walking around in t-shirts that say 'neurodiverse'.

However, I've definitely had interactions with co-workers or classmates that think they are the most special and the most smart, to the detriment of their ability to work with a team. Not sure if that's 'neurodiverse' or just bad manners.

In certain online forums there's also a tendency to laud highly intellectual but somewhat antisocial behaviours, and to talk down about 'neurotypicals'.

I have a question about that. Big companies like these have (I believe) pretty hefty legal departments, and would be constantly involved in legal negotiations and court proceedings (though not always at such a scale).

So why do court cases cost them so much in legal fees? Do they outsource representation for these big cases, or do they just extrapolate a lot of the costs from payroll, or what?

Many, if not most, people would not call any of those fields hard unless they were forced to practice it. A classic example is teaching, where some people seem to believe that bad teachers are bad because they are lazy (not that it requires skill). Even with law, those who claim it is hard focus upon the environment rather than the practice. (Law school is hard.) Pianist, there is lack of jobs. Baseball player, some may regard the training as gruling but not the game itself. Painting, a common excuse is a lack the creativity. Accounting, is seen as boring. Working retail, is regarded as being below them. Writing. Well, many seem to think it is easy yet few follow up by getting published.

Contrast that to STEM disciplines. Not only is getting there seen as hard, in the you need to be inherently good at it sense, but the practice is seen as hard, in the it is not worth the effort sense. On top of that, that accountant may take up baseball or painting as a hobby recognizing they don't have the ability (nor need the ability) to work hard since they will never practice it professionally. The majority of people who pursue STEM as a hobby already seem to be in STEM professionally.
What matters isn't really the government revenue but the government spending. The discrepancy is a lot smaller for the latter metric. In 2020, the US government collected 10.5k/person but spent 20k/person.
