"Take McKinsey’s promotion of an “agile transformation office.” An unnecessary rebrand of an existing concept, the program management office, that goes against the fundamental principles behind agile. Every point McKinsey lists as a difference to a PMO is an almost exact description of a PMO. Additionally, an office that “defines the overall strategy,” “tracks progress” and “creates minimum standards” directly contradicts the agile manifesto’s principle of “self-organising teams” and almost certainly “people over process.”
I believe the ISS also orients its solar panels edge-on to prograde (direction of orbit) at night to minimize drag, so that’s another consideration of attitude control failure. Still second order to the radiators, though.
This is the best "patch your stuff" article I've ever seen.
Hi Sergio! Exactly what you are describing is what we want to solve: we want you to be confident that you will get a standard quality service when you book with Glitzi. Now, we have learned that good professionals (trained and using good quality products) invest in their work & tools, therefore, they expect a higher pay than a cheap non-quality service (and that makes sense!). So our prices are not cheap but are not crazy expensive (also consider that these services are at-home, the professionals have to travel to your house). Our haircuts for men are $18 dollars. However, we think that as Glitzi grows (we have more bookings), we will be able to reduce prices as professionals will earn the same or more but will have more appointments per day.
Not without forking it under a new name, assuming its license allows that.
It's a combination of nostalgia for a (largely imagined) bygone era of handheld devices, plus the fact that two relatively famous boutique hardware manufacturers/developers are involved (Panic! and Teenage Engineering). People will buy this for $180 for the same reason people still buy TE's OP-1 synthesizer for well over $1k when there are more feature-rich devices available for half the price or less. They're paying for the design, the ecosystem, the aesthetic, and to some extent, as a "lifestyle" purchase.

The point I was trying to make is that in many countries in Europe, we can use our electronic IDs to do a lot of things in everyday life that cannot be done online in the US. You can see all of the services we can access in Croatia here: https://gov.hr/en/catalogue-of-services/10

The eIDs also require a biometric picture of your face and 2 fingerprints, which are encoded into the card, as required by European Union regulation.

When I am ready to I can even apply for my European Engineer license online on that portal, with my eID using a Smartcard reader on PC (highest level of security for authentication of credentials).
You have no idea how powerful "Live Free or Die" is.

There is a reason the Declaration of Independence went to Great Lengths to articulate, and warn, future generations that it is their Right and Duty to rise against a tyrannical Government.

I'll be frank. The promulgation of "It's for your own good" types continue chipping away at liberties which should be some of the most prized things we cherish as a nation, has put an edge on life I've seen no precedent for in my life excepting firearm regulations, and plotted against a curve over time, it's only becoming faster to implement, more hospitable in the National Rhetoric, and less transparent as the Government goes the route of ignoring getting buy-in from the populace at large and contents itself with Industry collusions through influencing the means of production.
That's a much better suggestion that most of the points in the article, IMO.
Sadly, this is a long way from being production-ready. It really does take a lot of work to create a reasonably feature-complete tax preparation software. Purely judging by 2020 standards, since that's what's nominally supported:

* Forms 1099-R and SSA-1099 are unsupported. Retirees, or anyone that took a COVID-related distribution, can't use this.

* Form 1099-G Box 1 is unsupported. Many people took unemployment during the pandemic, and need to report that income on their return.

* Prior-year earned income for ACTC and EITC is unsupported. Many folks earned more in 2019 than in 2020, and could get larger tax credits by computing the credits using their 2019 income.

* Schedule C is unsupported. Many folks have at least some self-employment income. [1]

"And all we hear is this campaign that we are violating human rights, and it’s very upsetting. Because I know how much life has been saved globally because of our technology."

Oh, pity poor NSO. Give me a break.

Even if their goals were good (and I honestly have no reason to think otherwise), the road to hell is paved with good intentions. And everything they're saying boils down to "trust us". We have no reason to believe they can be trusted, and we have several reasons to think they can't.

I also don't doubt that lives have been saved. But that doesn't excuse everything. There are costs that are too high to pay to accomplish the laudable goal of saving lives.

Modern consumer trucks have hoods taller than some full-grown adults, let alone children.
> Large vehicles, especially pickups with high hood heights, are a public health disaster

This feels hyperbolic. I, and I imagine most people in the US, don't think our daily lives are a "disaster" and don't go outside in fear of vehicles, let alone large vehicles. We also derive a lot of utility from vehicles that makes our lives better. The choice to rely on cars or purchase a larger vehicle isn't made with solely risks and nothing positive on the balance. I feel the focus on vehicle-related fatalities is safetyism, given that there is only 1 fatality per 100 million miles traveled in the US.
Thanks for explaining that. I've never heard of any of those things or brands, so I guess I'm not the target market.

Why tho?

You can create as many branches as you want and do all the experimentation you want.

When I stopped caring about committing and branching (something I’ve too long associated with pushing code, like reaching milestones) and started doing both as much as possible I really felt lots of freedom.

Instead of overthinking I can create parallel different approaches and see where they lead to. It’s amazing.
The issue is an increasing infantilization world-wide where some group thinks it needs to "protect the others", assuming they are the single source of truth and that it's obvious they are. It's a well known bias which for some reason aligns with the current zeitgeist. As everything before, it shall too pass at some point.
There are plenty of people who get trucks and SUVs because they don't make large cars anymore. I had an 89 Caprice and it was like riding a couch down the highway. Look at a Taurus or Impala today and I barely fit.

Edit: Why downvote? It's all true
Head over to diysolarforum.com and look for the group buy thread (it's not really a group buy anymore, it's ongoing). I picked up four 280Ah cells for right at $400 (exact amount varies a bit on shipping destination). Rumor has it that shipping has gotten pretty slow in the last few months, however, so you have to be patient.

Anyway, that gives you 3.36kW of capacity (assuming a 12V 4S config) for $119/kW. To be fair, it will be slightly more when you price in your BMS of choice.

If you believe "the vaccine turned people into the Hulk", thats a mental health problem.

But when inconvenient claims, like "vaccines can cause blood clots in rare cases", often flagged as misinformation, you don't instil much confidence with the public.

And so they go out and get information from other sources.
>In my scalability testing, we could handle upwards of 1000 players in the same 50 nm by 50 nm square on my 8 core dev workstation. That's pretty far beyond the limit of what would actually be _fun_ to fly the sim with.

But it would make a great fit for an MMO. AFAIK there aren't any of those now levering Erlang / Elixir. If anything they're doing the opposite and trying to contain people in smaller and smaller instances.

One should note that crash safety ratings found on cars generally compare collisions with vehicles of the same size and weight. So it can be misleading when you consider the larger vehicles.

Also, what is your proposed solution?
> There is a certain logic to "Somebody will do this and I am somebody."

Yep. But the logic is deeply flawed. I am always disappointed when this pitiful excuse gets trotted out. Just because someone else will inevitably do evil things is not a justification for you to do evil things.
As you are probably aware, buyout offers are routinely front run on the street by insiders. Ie, folks in the know get in early and book nice gains. So some folks actually liked hearing direct from CEO on what they were thinking. His twitter post was clear, he was "considering" taking TSLA private.

His blog post on the rationale for his potential move is here: https://www.tesla.com/blog/taking-tesla-private

Anyone who bought in at this news would have been buying in for < $84 per share (split adjusted). Current stock price is 600 per share+.

The problem the SEC has had in trying to charge him is that folks feel like the SEC really ignore some of the clear scam behavior by big players. Fail to deliver? No issue. Broker bad behavior and theft? Light FINRA slaps on the wrist. Complaints about Madoff? Investigate the complainers. CEO talking about potential to take a company private publically - all out WAR by SEC!

He said he is considering something. It was not definite. Stock price didn't jump to the "buyout" price the way it normally would on a real buyout. So we have clear market data that folks didn't not consider his tweets a statement that a buyout was occuring.

Yes - people want to make this into a huge crime. But he explained in his tweets pretty transparently to most what his thinking was.

And they did go after him for this and everything else. Hey says Stock price too high in his opinion - BAM - they were on him. And they went after him for this.

if you read between lines - the contempt court case got a bit of an eye roll from the judge involved.
I wonder if this is documented/leaked if they can get hit with an anti-trust suit?

Seems like that will never happen since you can basically modify your vehicle without restrictions even in otherwise restrictive states. And trucks just keep getting bigger and more popular.
The really fascinating bit about this one is it also changes your earwax. So it's quite easy to tell which gene you have, without a sniff test.
Covid made me unable to smell body odor. I smell _something_, but it's very clearly not the same odors and it's completely flat - I can't tell the odor of different people apart for example, or tell apart the smell of a gym dressing room from that of used clothes.

Perhaps coincidentally, ever since I had covid I've had practically 0 libido. I used to have several ONS a month, now I haven't felt the need or interest for that for more than half a year.

I've been wondering if there's any relation...
It is exactly what they are doing. You are playing with semantics. The public as well as private companies use the claims as an argument for validation of truth.

The troubling aspect is it comes with some level of authority backing the claims. There are consequences for not aligning with the positions of the claims.
This article is from the last year, so that is also good to note. The most recent issues weren’t that public yet.
Your post seems to ignore natural immunity completely. As in people who have had covid already and are immune, or already have cross reactive immunity from a coronavirus strain in a previous cold season.

I very much empathize with the AWS team's decision here — pip's requirement for a single shared version for each library makes it a bad system-level package manager, since tools have limited control over the versions of their dependencies.

I'm curious why they even chose python to implement this — maybe it's sufficiently close to v1 of the tool?

I wrote a an article [1] about how I self-publish my printed books on Amazon using LaTeX, pandoc and some shell scripts to automate the generation of a print-ready pdf and a standards compliant epub file all in one step.

All in all it's been very successful for me, and I highly recommend doing so. The first time you get your printed book in your hand is a magical feeling not quickly forgotten!

I do a lot of that in my solo project. I would add to your list "write a commit comment". It's like keeping a journal you can go back to. It gives me time to stop and think what have I done, what needs to be done next.

I don't much read my git-commit-comments but I think it is useful to write them.

I don't usually branch, at least at this stage of the project. Probably yes when I go to production when there is a need to fix bugs in the released version(s) without having to put all the latest code into it.

Even without branching commits are a good way to save the latest known good state I can easily go back to if things didn't work out.
>> I haven't looked into this one, but you mention it's a 2017 CVE. That means the vuln was discovered (not even necessarily patched and disclosed) in 2017 and not 15 years ago.

Sure, but it's a CVE for a 15 year old software. At this point, running 15 year old software unpatched on machines connected to internet is just negligence on user's part. Maybe we do need forced updates as default.

Note that the article is geared toward manufacturing firms, not communications and media distribution (most "software") companies.

My own experience is actually, surprisingly, after 10 years in startups, that small software companies suffer from inefficiencies of lack of scale, while well-run big public companies (my current employer is the only I've encountered) benefit from employees being able to specialize into preferred types of work instead needing to wear many ill-fitting hats.

>limited data

Yes! And do not forget, the limited data includes the botched 1970s flu vaccine as well. Don't forget the infamous Tuskgee experiment. These are all valid data points that people can use to say "well i'm not going to be a guinea pig until the long term data comes out". There is also data that most people don't find out they are allergic until the first shot. That's anxiety inducing!

When you start becoming empathetic to the other side, you realize that there are gaps where simply hand waving doesn't make the problem go away. And this is a problem everyone with an opinion, on this topic, seems to forget

You've probably heard of Panic, they made Coda, Nova, Prompt, there's another one that's escaping me right now... and a bunch of other apps. Untitled Goose Game.
You claimed deceptive advertising - now you’re switching to a different argument about safety and risk, which I think is also wrong. None of your stuff is in good faith though so there’s no point to more discussion.

How many modified vehicles do you see?

Maybe 1:100, 1:1000 something like that?

You probably think you see tons because you hate them just like the guy who hates left lane campers would swear that the Tacoma is more numerous than all work vans combined.

Modified vehicles are an easy thing to hate but I suspect they're a negligible source of anything when it comes to fatality statistics especially when you consider that the intersection of "people lifting their trucks" and "people who do a lot of driving where there are pedestrians to hit" is pretty small.
It was all politicized. That's all. Scientifically speaking, there is tons of evidence supporting the effectiveness and safety of the vaccine.

I don't necessarily blame the people buying them (though coal rollers and their ilk should definitely be loaded onto a barge and pushed out into the Pacific). The problem is that without sensible regulation, the market has chased these vanity trends and ended up in an insane place where something ridiculous on its face might nonetheless be the most practical (and safe) solution for a lot of people.

It still amounts to an opinion statement in the license text which has no real bearing on the license. I was trying to be charitable, but your clarification makes it seem even more like you're just trying to spread unsubstantiated FUD in hopes of scaring people away from using your code as input to ML models even when that would be fair use. Which seems to me to be vaguely akin to fraud. Moreover, the license seems like a poor choice of venue to express your opinion since those you're most interested in dissuading (e.g. people using lots of different projects as input to their ML models, without investigating the details of each one) are also the least likely to bother reading it. In terms of raising awareness of how copyright might apply to the output of ML models you'd do better to post your opinions on a blog somewhere and leave the license text for things that can actually be affected by a license.
Sure, someone has to do the dirty work. I get that.

But in that same vein, there always has to be someone to take the fall.

NSO — you knew this when you started doing the dirty work. You knew this when you were in the Israeli military.

You don’t get to complain now that you’re being made the scapegoat, when you knew damn good and well what might happen to you when you started doing the dirty work.
