> It sounds awfully as unpaid overtime.

Depends on the job - I only have experience in the UK working as a Project Manager, but all Project Manager roles i've had don't have overtime and the expectation is that you work the hours you need to get the job done. You get paid a decent salary, which effectively prices-in this expectation.

Overtime doesn't really incentivise good behaviour for project managers anyway, because some people like overtime as you get more pay, but the more effectively you manage the projects you have the less opportunity there will be to get overtime pay (i.e. worse project managers get more hours and more pay).

> If she is doing good job at 9-5, she should get a promotion.

People don't usually get promotions for doing well in their current role - they usually get a promotion if they are ready & suitable for the next role, and are willing to take on the additional responsibility and accountability that comes with it.

> And it is kind of risky. Some colleague may feel harassed, or disagree with some personal views. Good way to get fired!

Being able to build relationships with team-members without them feeling harassed is a pretty key skill for managers, and part of this is understanding what personal views to share and which to leave at the door.

If you can't build an effective relationship without your team members feeling harassed, you aren't going to be a good manager.

> Couple this with them launching GPU's into the most demand-heavy market we might ever see, they don't have to do much to have a good few years.

From what I have read their GPUs will be fabbed by TSMC so they will be constrained by capacity as much as anyone else.
I've used LaTeX extensively to write notes for my degree (math classes) and I can't stop recommending Tikz, it's one of the best parts of LaTeX. The Tikz/PGF manual [1] is absolutely great, as I could find solutions there for most things I wanted to do. There's support for 3D plots too, cached compilation (tikz-external IIRC), and quite a lot of useful libraries. I managed to do pretty complex drawings, and all of that integrated into the rest of the text.

If you write LaTeX, invest some time in learning Tikz if you need to do a drawing, it's worth it.

Personally I think most people never get taught debugging tools properly, so they get to use like 10% of their capabilities and then think down of debuggers.

Surveillance is just going to happen. That cat is out of the bag. Becoming Luddites only works if we all (all 7 billion+ individuals on this planet) do it. Besides, modern technology has too many benefits to part with it.

The way to deal with surveillance is counter surveillance: watch the watchers. Abusive behavior is a lot harder if you can't do so without being observed by countless others and being exposed. A lot of surveillance right now is being done by shadowy government agencies, foreign nations, some big corporations, terrorists, criminals, etc. It's very one sided. Once that stops being one sided, we can control it.

It's also an arms race. Everybody is watching each other, their own citizens/subordinates/etc. People in power are rightfully concerned about being under surveillance themselves. Because they probably are. We've had a few high profile cases of e.g. the German chancellor being under surveillance by what was supposed to be an ally.

The logical outcome of such an arms race is surveillance technology becoming a widespread commodity. Commoditization means things get a lot cheaper. So, inevitably there will be a lot more entities engaging in mutual surveillance just because they can.

Those doing the surveillance will themselves become obvious targets for surveillance. You can watch but you can't do so without risking being exposed. That changes the game. Because now abuse of surveillance technology has a price and a risk. And you can't ever be certain nobody is watching.

Ios is a bit weird. The developer is required to free up resources. If they don’t the app will get killed.

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/app_and_envi...

> When your app transitions to the background, release memory and free up any shared resources your app is holding. For an app transitioning from the foreground to the background, freeing up memory is especially important. The foreground has priority over memory and other system resources, and the system terminates background apps as needed to make those resources available. Even if your app wasn’t in the foreground, perform checks to ensure that it consumes as few resources as possible.

> Make sure your app is not holding any shared system resources when it transitions to the background. If it continues accessing resources like the camera or a shared system database after transitioning to the background, the system terminates your app to free up that resource.
Exactly. You do not need 100% or 95%. You just need enough to start changing the culture and landscape. Some of those people with industry experience but with values steeped in privacy and security will go on to educate (literally in academia) and mentor junior developers/engineers. It can be about trying to get enough support to change the landscape to create a feedback loop of a culture of developers/engineers taking into mind how their actions in a source file impact the end user's privacy and security.

I always wondered what would be the best analogies for this.

I imagine you are chronically in-debt from your health bills, college loan, dead beat husband who lost his third job in a row and you still have to feed your two kids.

You go read some books for advice on being in a better financial shape, and they tell you “Just spend less money. If in the next weeks you still aren’t getting rich, spend even less money, and so on. It’s just simple math, spend less than you earn ! It’s hard but stay strong !”

I wonder how you’d feel about that advice.

Honestly though, do we? Why?

It almost certainly wasn't man made and intentional. That's the only case we really need to know the origin story for, and I don't think anyone serious thinks that is plausible.

Otherwise, the worst case is that it was a lab accident of some kind. It'd be fun to point and blame China for it and all, but is it something we really need?

It only makes more sense when you do look at the background, so thanks for the link. They're lisp folks. They use kebab-case. I completely get it. It may be the product of decades of research, but it is also the product of default choices and comfort for the people who wrote it. ALL programs have an element of this: I write Rust and you can tell without looking when some tool is written in it -- TOML config? Apache-2.0/MIT dual-licensed? Few such decisions have no downsides, and yet exceptions are rare.

It takes a lot to make a choice for reasons other than your own familiarity. From the linked thread, they clearly agonized over this. Apparently they talked themselves down from the usual Lisp ultra-permissiveness on idents, so good on them -- but it was still explicitly a compromise between their comfort and the aims of the project.

There is an obvious and very good reason why the number of languages that do this can be counted on one hand. The authors know that. It is a problem they decided to accept because it was the default for them, and they "just couldn't give up on how pleasing hyphens in identifiers are to the eye and the shift-finger", and then mitigated it via other whitespace changes. They were content when "Anecdotally, no one in our courses ha[d] complained". I disagree with it. I find it really hard to read. I guess I am used to other languages, but so is everyone who has dabbled in python, likely writing primarily numeric code for their stats/bio/physics courses.

Consider me a student reporting it as a problem. Consider the 2013 thread a student reporting it as a problem as well. How about that?

I'll finish with a quote from Krishnamurthi himself: "Saying 'add spaces around binops' is easy to learn, recognize, and implement."

Does this not speak for itself?

fun subtract(a, b):
a-b
end

>>> The identifier a-b is unbound: definitions://:3:2-3:5

4 | a-b

It is used but not previously defined.

Edit: I dug up an old thread from the guy @estebank who makes all the amazing Rust error messages, responding to a paper of Krishnamurthi's that argues, true to form, that you shouldn't ever actually "Say 'add spaces around binops'" (https://twitter.com/ekuber/status/1140791186858266624). The paper itself is an interesting read, particularly the interviews where beginners don't have the vocabulary to decipher error messages. But I think Esteban is right.

As the article points out, research shows that fear of racism hurts minorities. Insofar as these “solutions” cause minorities to perceive racism where there isn’t any, without effecting real change, that may be worse than nothing.

People get antsy when flimsy reasoning is used to change things around them. The “master” as a label for school heads dates back at least to 15th century England, long before Britain participated in the slave trade. But that doesn’t matter and it makes people mad that it doesn’t matter.

A 727 once went into a dive due an autopilot malfunction. The separation of airflow over the stabilizer meant it was ineffective. The pilot recovered by lowering the landing gear. It tore the doors off, but slowed the jet down enough that he could regain control. I don't know if it went supersonic or not.

If you're not careful with a jetliner, it can go into "mach tuck" if you're in a shallow dive, where (again) the separation of flow over the stabilizer makes it ineffective. In one incident on a 707, the pilots weren't paying attention and it went into a shallow dive, and mach tuck. The elevator was ineffective, and the stab trim system wasn't functioning (I don't recall why, but likely it was overloaded). So the copilot got down on his needs and cranked the manual stab trim wheel, and got control back just in time.

(The 707 and 737's had a manual stab trim wheel, as does the 737MAX.)

Edit: Well, well, another poster linked to a wikipedia article about the 727 incident https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TWA_Flight_841_(1979) so it seems my memory was accurate.
Because their immune systems are weak due to unhealthy food and life habits that poor, uneducated people usually have.

I'm sure the premium charged by broadcasting drone sellers has more to do with stabilizing drones even during manoeuvering than it has to do with maximizing payload and range. Drones used in broadcasting can do pit stops pretty much at will.
In this case it really is not effective though. There is no drop in replacement for China.

A slow transition would be impossible so it's really all or nothing in the short term.
> Because a specific category of people want to blame either China or Russia for anything without any proof.

That's not what's happening. There is no direct proof available outside China, but there's at least 20 items of indirect proof that COVID-19 came from one of the WIV lab locations (there's 2 locations.)

I followed the euro sewage findings at the time.

Two possible explanations are:

1) lab error

2) participants went to the Military Games in Wuhan in Oct, 2019 and got sick. They probably brought it back to their home countries. The participants said, "Wuhan looked like a ghost town." so Wuhan was already in some kind of lockdown.

For those who want to research this further:

- find out the dates of the "hospitals are full" satellite photos (around Sept, 2019)

- find out the dates of the Military Games (around Oct, 2019)

- the first reported fatality was Dec. 1, 2019.

Not since 2009. I simply put print statements on strategic places, and through a process of elimination I find the issue 99% of the time. Most of the time I never go beyond 15-30 minutes.

Sometimes it takes hours, sure, but I'm not seeing how a debugger would accelerate that (since in those cases I have to wrangle a lot of external state like DBs and VMs/containers). Debuggers are a pain to learn and utilize to their full capability.

I don't think that's a conspiracy. Motivations there, however misplaced they may be, are quite clear.

My company owns one, the same make as the one that shot the dragon battle scene in game of thrones. It's a single rotor, and you're right on with the specs. It's not super expensive though, about as expensive as a high end luxury car. Definitely out of range of most consumers, but not crazy for a small business to have. You also need a small team to operate it, and because of its weight there's more aviation regulation applicable, at least here in Europe.
> Why do we accept [the state telling people what to do with their bodies in some cases] but are suddenly outraged by vaccination?

We're certainly not "suddenly outraged by vaccination". In fact, vaccines and anti-vaccine sentiment have historically gone hand in hand[1]. The historical reaction to vaccines _is_ worsened when mandated. The Anti-Compulsory Vaccination League was formed in 1866 in reaction to the British compulsory vaccination order for smallpox.[2] Would smalpox have been eliminated if people could have chosen for themselves?

You are right; in light of available circumstantial evidence such as the instatement of an army bioweapons commander in WIV and the deletion of their sample database, it would seem much more likely that it was an intentional lab leak.

Perhaps they simply don't know about it. OSM is doing its own thing and doesn't market itself much to the general audience. But for things that Google/Yandex are grabbing for free (opening hours, whether shops still exist, etc.), StreetComplete should be known much better, IMHO.

It doesn't really help OSM that its home page is considered just an example of what can be done with the data and not positioning it as an alternative to Google/Bing Maps is somewhat intentional.
