The big issue is around four things:

1) Certain libraries that were part of the JDK being moved out of the JDK, which usually required adding them as a module or dependency in $BUILD_TOOL_INSTRUCTIONS_FILE

2) Internal JVM APIs that weren't public being used via reflection by clever libraries, and then when they change, those libraries break

3) Bytecode emitting libraries - various frameworks love these, but bytecode that worked for Java 8 can fail on Java 9. Hence Spring 4 only supports JDKs 6 - 8. So to move to JDK 9+, you had to upgrade Spring to 5.x, and things that were tied to your version of Spring... and this process can very often suck.

4) New versions of library X only being available in class formats that Java 8 can't run. I encountered this with Jetty - version 10+ only support Java 11+, so if you're stuck on Java 8, you're limited to bug fix releases on the last version that supported Java 8.

Since Java 9, the JVM has been warning if you use internal APIs. As of Java 17, they have started enforcing strong encapsulation of those APIs ("private means private yo"), to give the JDK freedom to evolve without worrying about every library that got clever with the internals of the JVM. But given the very long lead time and ample messaging on this, I don't expect Java 17 breaking too many things.

At my last job, we had a rather large monolithic build that was tied to Java 8 because some modules would die a horrible death when compiled with or for a higher version Java. So I introduced Maven and Gradle toolchains[1] so that individual modules could compile using their preferred Java version, which freed up new modules/apps to use Java >8 as they saw fit. All the legacy apps that broke on Java 9+ could stay on 8, but the rest of the project was freed from their legacy crap.

I'm wondering how long before a new class of subversion of 2FA emerges. We're all used to simple password loss leading to account subversion, and increasingly aware of how weak the walls are on mobile phone number porting (in some economies: by no means all) which made PIN by mobile/SMS next to useless.

Fingerprint 2FA is mostly about proof of holding a device with something akin to a secure area. Under the hood, there's still crypto in the data exchange. That said, I'm told (I've read) that some schemes leave the 2nd factor as a "permit" token far too long.

I'm not a security expert. Sorry if I use terms of art wrongly.

stdenv shouldn't end up in the container at all. the container should literally just contain your derivation and its transitive dependencies. your app, its actual dependencies, and nothing else. it won't even contain bash unless you or something you reference adds it. stdenv stuff is just used to build, it doesn't end up in there. maybe use one of the nix tools to show the actual dependencies you're bringing in and cut the fat.

My son is almost through Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW).

In this case he was misdiagnosed as having Eczema, and put on topical steroids from about 2 months old.

My two year old son has been steroid free for just about three months now and is finally looking like a healthy young boy.

We're both very happy and very angry. Had we not sought out our own solution we'd have him on yet stronger steroids today as that is the 'standard of care'.

From my perspective, it's hard to put any faith in the FDA at all.

You're not wrong, especially about optical components. But there has been a general overreaction about ESD and milspec/spacespec components since, I don't know...maybe the mid-1970s budget cuts? And we have a lot more knowledge about cosmic rays and other bit flipping events now.

It wasn't unusual to launch a Pioneer 10 and 11 or Voyager 1 and 2 back in the day both because the launch vehicle wasn't super reliable and also because the overall system and the environment it was going to wasn't fully known.

Now we have Hubble, which initially a disaster but after multiple manned servicing missions, was turned into a glorious scientific instrument. But we also have a couple equivalents sitting around in a warehouse[0] that could have been launched (at least now) for much less money. I'm very concerned that JWST will be the next.

The 65-115 year old category is too big to compare with other age deciles.

For representative comparison deaths in 65-75 age group is 144K and 50-65 age group is 106K, they are a comparable risk group[1]. In my urban county of 2M whites in 50-64 have the lowest vaccination rate in the 60s. Asians have a 95% vaccination rate in the same age group.

The simple fact that Republican dominated counties have their beds and ICUs overflowing[2] after wide vaccine availability while congested New York does not paints a very clear picture that it is not liberal politics that is causing pandemic issues, but conservative politics.

Same thing for the Theranos scandal. Financial regulators have done better for the safety of the patients than the FDA!

Other regulators in the world are worst sadly. The European framework is a mess - stuck in between 2 revisions of their dogma and in the hand of Notified Bodies which are running a private business of setting up the benchmark of safety and efficacy for health-tech, without any accountability mechanism in place.

I could go for hours on that.

Note that there are great people and initiative too (there's one coming up at the FDA on 14 OCT).

These institutions are sadly not "fit" for the upcoming intelligence explosion. Everyone is asking for more regulation of AI but we need to learn how to be efficient at regulating fast!!

Prohibiting minors from using end-to-end encryption would not prevent them from using self-destructing messages, since they are completely different features. There are messaging solutions with end-to-end encryption that do not have self-destructing messages (e.g. E2EE email, Apple iMessages) and vice versa (e.g. Snapchat).

As a parent, you have the option to use parental controls to block apps with the self-destructing messages feature. However, other parents may have different parenting situations and styles that do not need this feature to be restricted from their children. Pushing for a feature to be unavailable for all children would infringe on other children's rights and their parents' rights.
I agree. Advertising + algorithms without regulation makes the internet a mathematical optimization for lootboxes. Advertising on the internet should be strongly regulated just like it was on television at one point. I remember when subliminal advertising was a huge scandal / scare. It was regulated on TV. There is absolutely no regulation of it on the internet, and the technology and understanding of reinforcement learning in advertising has grown tremendously since then.

Ultimately Google and Facebook are ad agencies (by profit). They need to pay a premium to attract workers because their mission is less attractive, although they dress it up by publicizing ancillary projects. If you go several steps farther, porn companies do the same.

Ten years ago, Jeff Hammerbacher, an early Facebook employee, wrote: “The best minds of my generation are thinking about how to make people click ads. That sucks.”

Look at the big names now. Google, which did most of its best work in the early days. Facebook, which is part of the problem, not part of the solution. Amazon, which has figured out how to exploit workers. Microsoft, which is still trying to sell Windows N+1. And the gig economy crowd, which has figured out how to pay below minimum wage and not pay benefits.

- Really good battery companies. Tesla just packages Panasonic. GM just packages LG. They're not making batteries from raw materials.

- Progress in aircraft. Boeing is still flogging variants of the 737, which first flew in 1967.

- Semiconductors. Does anyone in the US still make commodity RAM?

- Electronics in general. There are few US sources left for small components.

- Telecom. The US no longer has anybody who makes telephone central office equipment. The US can no longer make smartphones.

- Power. The US does not make many large power transformers.

- Appliances. Few US manufacturers remain.

- Manufacturing engineering. Who gets a degree in manufacturing engineering today? Who knows how to lay out a production line?
> the pattern of awaiting in an async parallel loop in general reduces to what I wrote, does it not?

No.

async item => {await item()} // Promise<void>
item => item() // Promise<ReturnValue<typeof item>>

In general that's how you use maps (by returning something), but here the intent was not to map an array, it's just how to implement an "async for".

> The only case where you would need to await inside the mapper function is when you would further process some asynchronously returned value

Which is what map is for. Also, once again, that was just how the async loop can be implemented. If anything you're saying that it's "a misuse" of map and thus we need an "async for"

> arr.map(async item => handleItem(
> await item()
> ))

That doesn't make any sense, there's still an `await` in the function’s body, so you're still handling it — and there's nothing wrong with that.

> await arr.map()

That's actually a good QoL improvement, but it doesn't address either of the points I'm talking about (only works on arrays + it requires a function)

> but it actually only waits for the promises returned from item() and not the .then() part

Wrong. The mapper function returns a Promise that resolves with the return value of handleItem. `await a.then(b).then(c)` awaits the 3 promises in row.

To achieve that race condition, you should not return nor await the return value of `then` inside the map method:

await Promise.all(
arr.map(item => {
const p = item();
p.then(handleItem); // "Race condition"
return p;
})
);
