> then I install a package from the Alpine repo

You might want to do some research - from the readme: "The current installation method for these packages is to pull them in using wget or curl and install the local file with apk" - https://github.com/jeanblanchard/docker-alpine-glibc/blob/ma... <- That dockerfile, for example, installs curl using the normal Alpine repos, then uses curl to download the signing keys and the packages for the glibc package.

But yes, if someone builds a chrome package that completely screws up other packages in alpine, to the point that the Alpine maintainers are being inundated with bogus support requests then yes, ONE SOLUTION is to recompile the project in a way that means that the package is no longer a problem. You have solved the problem with a fork.

The other solution is to make it very very clear in your naming and documentation that this is not a supported alpine image, and that bug reports should go to the maintainer of the image, not Alpine themselves.

However, either way, you could be argued to have created a new "distribution" of software that is no longer truly Alpine linux, but is based on Alpine linux. Including Alpine in the name is not necessary, and in this case it seems, not desirable.

Even if your codebase is not a fork, you have "forked off" from the original distribution.
General optimisations are not so common to work on, but new HW requires new thinking about database architecture.

A few examples, Scaling to more CPU cores, Scaling to bigger RAM, bigger disks, scaling to larger systems. Introduction of new HW such as Intel Persistent Memory, new GPUs that can be used for various purposes in a database such as compression and encryption.

Every product has weaknesses that needs to be addressed, what these are is obviously product dependent.

Personally I spent a very significant amount of time the last 5 years to automate algorithms such that they automatically adapt to load, memory sizes, VM size and so forth.

Masters are definitely ok, but my Ph.D studies have certainly helped since that made me to do a deep dive into all database algorithms. So masters is sufficient to be a database developer, but I would say a Ph.D is a good idea if you aim for a database development architect role down the road.
Best of luck in your new tasks.
And that's before you consider things like Docker, which will let you run linux software just about anywhere including windows, mac, BSD, etc. On the desktop we have things like Snaps, Flatpack, etc. Also consider Steam running games made for windows on Arch Linux, and Apple running software compiled for Intel on ARM. Windows 11 will run Android applications apparently. And of course WASM is the next level in portable executables.

The OS as a control point for where software can be installed and used is increasingly less relevant. It's increasingly about controlling the application stores and maximizing their reach rather than the OS platforms. Mobile is actually lagging behind these trends a bit; mostly because of draconian app store policies discouraging/forbidding anything that is "not native".

It will be interesting to see if Fuchsia will get a lot of adoption outside of Google. I'm very skeptical about their ability to convince others to use this. Even their strategy around Fuchsia remains murky. E.g. their whole IOT strategy resembles what they are doing with messaging in terms of quickly abandoned things that they announce with a lot of fanfare every year. One of these train wrecks is Nest, which they picked as a niche player guinea pig for the first commercial rollout of Fuchsia. I doubt it will move the needle for Nest. Or for Fuchsia.
> However, if most of them aren’t, chances are you find a difference in the first block read,

But just to read the first block, you need to open both files and move the heads from one to another at least once. If the files are placed in distant cylinders, this will be a significant amount of time (a few ms).

At the beginning, fclones also processed files in each group matching by size together. But files matching by size do not necessarily live physically close to each other. Later fclones got a great speedup on HDD when I switched to processing the files in their physical order, regardless of their logical grouping. It is a bit more complex to do in terms of programming because in each grouping pass you have to "ungroup" the files to a flat list, sort the list by locations and group again, but it is really worth it (on rotational drives). You can read about this here: https://pkolaczk.github.io/disk-access-ordering/
I have to agree. That's the most naive thing I've read today. Powers are always abused to a degree, and some more than others. In the "decent" corner of the world the police have less powers, and I think we can extrapolate from that alone.

Sure.. but what I asked was who was being genuine, not whether exclusively ideas should be judged on their own merit, it was the other poster who pivoted what I said in that way. Similar to the way the poster below changed "making some rules that benefit themselves" to "its not possible to be successful if laws just benefit themselves" - which is not what I said.

It's a pretty typical tactic - but whether it was done because they want to boost the CCP or wether they just aren't good or careless at understanding or expressing themselves? I don't know.

Being genuine; the field of human interaction isn't some philosophical paper; if your cousin consistently lies, and has always lied; it's a good bet they will do so again - not evaluating each thing they say on its merits is a rational choice.

If everyone in a group is prone to lying or misdirection - evaluating each idea will lead to exhaustion - trust matters.
Aside from the fact there is also that the work of US Government employees and contractors directly or indirectly helped kill hundreds of thousands of people. In Iraq,

That's because they are not programmers. One should not expect them to be experts in 2 fields. They do their work with the tool provided, and if we want a better output, we need to provide better tooling or accept what comes out.

I want my physicists to spend their mental effort on physics, not on software architecture.
I just tried it, can't reproduce. I'm programming in C++, so different server, but lsp shouldn't really care about the actual upstream server.

I have a friend who similarly recovered after her 2nd shot. She had COVID in November 2020 and was suffering long-COVID side-effects until June this year when she got fully vaccinated with Pfizer.

I met her 2-3 weeks after her 2nd shot and she was stunned on how the brain fog disappeared, she could focus and read books again, she managed to go to the grocery store after climbing down 4 stories in her house without taking a break to rest, etc.
The Worst Businessman of the 18th Century BC (2018)

While your conclusion is true, you shouldn't draw it based on real estate. There isn't much incentive to build, improve, or maintain a house on Trust Land (i.e. a reservation) when the occupant can't own it.

The wealthier tribes, such as those on the Washington Coast, have the vast majority of their members living off-reservation by choice because of exactly this issue.
> The point is you can find a way to delegate the parts you don't like.

So it is possible to do what you like (without considering the compensation), but probably not for everyone. Likely only for a lucky few.

Is that what your saying? Because that what I think is whats going on in the current economic model we live in.

How can you expect it to be legally yours if your name isn't even recorded as being the owner anywhere? It seems like you have two fundamentally exclusive desires here: Complete anonymity, but also bulletproof ownership. I guess there's some blockchain solutions that meet your requirements, but no one uses them.

Nope also that e.g. land ownership is recorded and publicly accessible.

A father and son team built a rocket for the X Prize Lunar Lander challenge. They got some impressive results. Their team was called Unreasonable Rocket.

EDIT: That said, in this example unreasonableness was about personal endeavor, not about interacting with others or expectations toward others.
This looks like something I thought of last week! It's like I am dreaming :)

It seems to mimic how I take notes: I make sections on a blank piece of paper (ordered by subject/context) and I have never found a good way how to translate this to an editor, where everything is top to bottom. This way I can organize my screen with notes much more like I would organize a piece of paper.
https://coronavirus.uga.edu/faq/should-i-wear-a-face-mask/

> The University System of Georgia encourages everyone—whether vaccinated or not—to wear a face covering while inside campus facilities. *However, face coverings and social distancing are not required.*

The school's policy explicitly states that masks (and social distancing) are not required. The professor wanted to supersede the policy, which he had no authority to do. Under the policy, students have the right not to wear masks or social distance.

On the other hand, the University of Georgia's policies explicitly require the use of gloves (and specific types of gloves) when handling dangerous chemicals, so this is not at all comparable. The like situation would be a professor demanding that his students not wear gloves in contravention of the policy.

IMO there's no win in the eSport games unless you are the country developing it or host major platform for it(ex: Twitch), they hold too much power.

Competition by nature is a winner takes all game. Age is a strong factor it's event worse than programmer like us which caps around 35-40. For them, it's 25. that means one had to start playing at early teens. Unfortunately most kids are also bad at negotiating terms and compensation nor they hold the bargain chips before they made names, this makes them susceptible from exploitations from all the parties involved. If a player is successful, they make probably same wages as a few high tier engineers. If a player failed, then you have lots of unskilled man with bad health conditions because they spent 12+ hours sitting in fronts of a computer for 10 years. That's disasters waiting to happen.

If I am governor I'll simply make my country very hostile to eSports. If some kid managed to make it, good for the. For the rest of them if they can't even show perseverance than they are bound to fail anyway.
Perhaps another success for DC's precrime division? Or perhaps we live in an age where ideas are dangerous--ideas that cut into massive corporations' profits, or suggest curtailment or questioning of government power and control--and where the dissidents that merely speak such ideas, even in the so-called Western liberal democracies are worthy recipients of "masks of shame" like "anti-vaxx" or "conspiracy theorist", plus a good measure of a bit of the ol' ultraharassment from the legal system.

I do feel sorry for the poor, "Julian Assange"-esque personality type that thinks that drawing attention to their martyr-like "noble sacrifices" is something either effective for their "cause" or in their self interest. It's clearly neither, and sometimes I wish dissenting voices were a bit smarter.

Then again, engagement not activism is noble pragmatic rhetoric, but in an age where maybe dissenting ideas can't even get a word in edge-wise what's an engagement-minded divergent thinker to do?

Who brought this plague of zero-nuance and idea-censorship upon us, that has so effectively choked-out a vibrant and diverse public discourse? And in democracies no less?!

edit: I guess I didn't read the audience of this article here that well, because I expected that these well-written and impassioned pleas for a bit of open-ness in the discourse, as well as criticism and questioning of the homogeneity would be well received here. I feel pretty sad they weren't because if people here don't think critically enough, or have courage enough, to think outside the blinders that are so obviously on our society at this time, then who will? You know: the smart, savvy, mostly financially independent tech workers...if they can't afford a bit of dissent, or critical inquiry, then who can, seriously?
Use Firefox mobile then.
I think 100% in general is a vague notion. 100% of what? Current demand would be mostly excluding things that in the future would be included. Things like heating houses (mostly gas currently in a lot of countries). Or powering the things you mention. Or creating vast amounts of hydrogen. Or powering most forms of road transport. All of those things are starting to happen.

Carbon neutrality involves most of those things happening on a very large scale. Our current electricity demand is a small portion of that overall future demand.
I stopped writing to my federal member Jim Chalmers about the shitty legislation. I never get a response, I doubt his office even reads them.
Start by watching Michael Stonebraker's Turing Award lecture, he will give you the lowdown and inspiration:
https://youtu.be/BbGeKi6T6QI

Start with relational, understand why it is the reference architecture, and from there the tradeoffs involved and what other architectures bring to the table (columnar, streaming, object, in-memory, array, distributed, blockchain, nosql, etc)

To really understand why you should start with relational, read Stonebraker's classic paper: "What goes around comes around": https://people.cs.umass.edu/~yanlei/courses/CS691LL-f06/pape...

It will teach you database evolution history so that you don't end up reinventing the wheel.

"agile" (the manifesto) was stating the obvious for people working on a product that had a lifetime longer than a "project". It works for products that have an ongoing life.

What it doesn't work with is environments with projects and budgets that are quarterly or annually assigned. That's where abominations like "scaled agile" have arisen.

Scaled Agile (TM) and Scrum and all the rest of the ceremony are like ORMs are to SQL database, an attempt to correct the impedance mismatch between the way software teams work and the way companies work.
Hierarchy overrides reason.
In similar vein: I have come to loath the word "passion" as it relates to almost anything, but especially work. Claiming to be passionate about some aspect of life has become a red flag for me: Passion is hot-blooded and short-lived; usually an indication of immaturity and a vastly self-generated false image of the object of passion, whether that's a job, another person, a work of art or anything else.

If you're looking for a way to make your day-to-day existence meaningful, to give yourself a sense of purpose beyond the humdrum of "paying the rent", I strongly believe that passion is entirely counterproductive as a guide.

Purpose comes from your own values, suggesting that quiet, sustained contemplation is more useful as groundwork.

eta: I guess this means I'm with Kyosaki on this one. ;)
Well if you hate it so much, why not take a pay cut and join a startup? There are lots of opportunities for a person with your FAANG experience.
I humbly submit for your consideration: https://sharetheboard.com

We built this app with hybrid environments in mind, from the ground up. The idea is simple: rather than creating look-alike digital experiences or requiring people to learn new tools/techniques (often tricky in education sector), we believe that you should be able to do what you've always done and the technology around you* should do the heavy lifting.

*Second point: we're surrounded by gadgets. Laptops and smartphones are omnipresent. We believe you shouldn't need new, dedicated (and usually immobile) hardware.

ShareTheBoard allows you to share any traditional/analog surface online, using just a laptop. It digitizes handwritten content in real time and intelligently avoids obstacles (such as people), making them transparent. Your content can then be saved, shared, or uploaded wherever necessary.

In other words: the best tool is the good old whiteboard (or even a notebook, if you're all alone) + your laptop, running STB.

It's a Web app so you should be able to run it on almost any device (though Safari has some known issues which should be resolved soon). In September we'll be adding digital annotations, that will allow remote viewers to add content to your shared surface (overlaid visually). Presenting via smartphone comes soon after that.

There's a free trial option on our site. Give it a go and let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks in advance!

Depending on the nature of the hierarchy, they can engage in dishonest one-sided discussion because if you agree with them, good, if you disagree with them, they can just say something like 'I hear your feedback and will keep it in mind but we are going to go ahead with the original plan' and then pull rank.

This is, however, only as bad as your lack of leverage as a subordinate. If your dissatisfaction can make your superiors' lives harder (by quitting or by working suboptimally), you'll find that they become quite a bit more reasonable.
Thanks! Glad to finally have someone have a use for this.

Can you tell me more about your usecases?
A different take: in professional software, you fix the things your boss tells (or allows) you to fix, while in free software, you fix the things that need to be fixed. I think that's why I find most commercial software to be a trash fire compared to free software.
Have you missed the underground part? Ideally both reservoirs would be kept underground, thus minimizing environmental impact and water loss to an absolute minimum.

I agree that such storage would require huge CapEx, but on the bright side OpEx will be relatively small. And no need to bother with recycling of megatonnes of batteries every decade. Also because stored energy is proportional to volume and height difference you it's possible scale such storage quite flexibly (assuming an affordable technology for creating such cavities will be developed).
One similar thing regarding both nuclear and wind power plants is no one wants one in their backyard.
Fuchsia's capabilities mechanism are strictly superior. There has been, over various android version, many fixes to "leaks" of information due to the SELinux configuration not being comprehensive enough, and linux being default open when it comes to capabilities. In contrast, Fuchsia is default closed, so if you don't ask for the permission to do something, you can't.

I distinctly remember ad companies using various tricks like reading /proc and the like to try and get information about what applications are running on a phone and what servers they are communicating with without asking for perms (it's fixed now, but it used to be a thing years ago). This is the kind of stuff that fuchsia should, in theory, prevent.
You can, with pyodine: https://github.com/pyodide/pyodide

Here is an example instance: https://notebook.basthon.fr/

The thing is, creating a whole stack in pure JS would be very hard, since the current scientific stacks uses a lot of fortran, assembly and C with python to bind them all. Or julia. It's millions of man hours we are talking about.

So compiling Python into WASM is probably the best deal for such an app.

For the regular web, it would be a deal breaker: you don't want to load 15 mo of runtime before being able to interact with a web page. But for such a scientific app, it's not a problem. Besides, were you to write it entirely in JS, the size would be huge as well.
It's not nearly every unproductive person's fault that they're unproductive. There's a lot of useful work to be done and a lot of people capable of doing it who are not currently aligned. It's often a matter of inefficiency in capital allocation, i.e. lack of funding for certain useful work because it's not easy or practical (without intervention, like from the government) to earn a profit doing it. There's also limitations on our ability to coordinate work, regardless of funding.

Profitability is a mediocre proxy for the usefulness of work, and so we have only a mediocre ability to allocate labor usefully in our profit driven economy. Some of the best investments of money and labor in terms of profitability are even things I would call counterproductive.
I'm very much surprised at that as well. Poor form from Iceland.
A shameless plug: fclones does that as well, including support for symlinks.
But the Fed is doing QE, which is buying longer maturity treasuries, creating artificial demand, which lowers interest rates.

Short-term treasuries and the fed rate are also directly related. Increase the fed fund rate, and short-term treasury interest rates will have to go up as well to remain competitive.
I agree that they are not programmers but in my opinion it cannot become an explanation to write a code which become non repeatable, especially if they have big impact on how the flow will look on production environment.
