Really excited to see this launch. Cloudflare do a good job at making some complex/painful workflows painless, even if they aren't as feature complete as their competitors.

I was hoping their pricing would undercut some of their competition - doesn't seem like I would save much if I moved from Cloudinary, for example. But definitely something I'll consider on future projects.

I do appreciate this pricing model vs. others like Cloudinary that penalise you for creating more variations. Trying to serve the best image sizes/formats per device is best for the user experience.

Semi-related; I'd like to see Cloudflare improve their CDN performance in the Oceania region.

The provided step-to-reproduce (not steps, since there's only one) seems to be regarded by the reporter as an automic operation (indivisble; a single step).

The other person is, I think, trying to express that it can potentially be done more than one way, so additional steps are required.

From a QA perspective, I prefer not to guess what the reporter might have intended. It's much better to have tons of detail, but I can sympathise with being the user and _thinking_ you have been totally clear and am know I've sometimes done this myself.

By "UI", do you mean desktop environment? I'm Debian user with no desktop environment, only a window manager.

It's far from the 30% because there's nothing else for them to do other than keep that clear trail and it applies to every usage. Companies like Apple that charge 30% charge that because they host the files, the updates, the payment systems, and review systems. Credit card companies don't do those things.

My point is that if your plan is to fly under the radar, existence or lack of extradition agreement with US is not really relevant: if you immigrate illegally to escape prosecution, lack of extradition agreement won’t help you much, because if US finds you there and asks for you back, most countries will deport you for breaking immigration laws, without even involving extradition process.

He was definitely neither in my experience, but in 2010 he is (justifiably?) paranoid about dependencies and competitors ganging up on them.

You probably don't remember this era, but here's a representative article from just a month before this email thread: https://www.wired.com/2010/10/microsoft-adobe-apple/

This kind of paranoia became part of Apple's DNA in the late 90s, when Microsoft asked Apple to "knife the baby"[1], when Adobe was threatening Apple with killing their Mac apps, etc.

I've seen Codecov misrepresenting, files are completely missing from the report. I've seen projects reporting 95% when in actuality it is less than 10%. How can they know about all files without scanning?

> Sonar cloud also works with same coverage reports, so if you have that problem in one tool, you're likely to have it in the other.

This is untrue, I have done side-by-side comparisons and talked to support. It is a (not well) known issue for Codecov, understandably as it would hurt the brand.

We use SonarCloud for monorepo. They have specific settings and instructions for setting that up.

We see scanning the code as a good thing. Two minutes is not a big deal for the benefits.

Again, I heavily recommend avoiding Codecov due to the misrepresented statistics.
You need to signal when you're leaving the lane or street you're currently on, not when it bends. Nobody ever signals on bends because that's sending bad information. Considering how erratic the car was with signaling and turning I really have no idea what it "thought" it was doing at all.

> Node and Lua are both runtimes that have trustworthy VM-level isolation that can be used to achieve this — see Cloudflare Workers for the Node case

Correction: Cloudflare Workers does not use Node, explicitly because Node does not provide secure isolation. Workers uses a custom runtime built directly on V8, which does provide secure isolation in the way you describe.

As for Lua, it might work in theory, but I don't think it has had anywhere near the scrutiny V8 has had. I wouldn't bet on it when security really matters.
No. I've owned both. Tesla has quality problems that even GM doesn't have. They may have finally solved them on the Model 3 -- mine wasn't too bad, really, but definitely worse than any other car I've owned (and I've had several dozen).
Given what it costs to station troops outside the country (including an aircraft carrier with its air wing), there has to be a strong reason to keep them there for 70+ years. And it's not because we needed to maintain an occupying force [0] - it was to have bases with pre-positioned equipment near likely foes where troops could be quickly sent and move-out.

The REFORGER exercises [1] went on for nearly 30 years, testing the ability to rapidly move troops to Germany in the event of a Soviet attack. Not only was this expensive in monetary terms, it was expensive in human lives - each year people died from various causes associated with being around heavy equipment. Such as sleeping under vehicles that would roll over them in the night. Or crossing rail lines with their antenna still up and getting electrocuted.

The US didn't do this for any imperial reasons. It was to keep commitments made to those governments in the post-war years.

While i vaguely agree, crypto/blockchain/whatever has one unique aspect that is "valuable":

It creates a scarcity in an internet full of abundance. You can copy/paste a JPEG or MP3 a million times (hello piracy), but you can't own an NFT or coin you don't actually own. Sure, you can copy/paste the underlying JPEG, but thats not the same. There will only be 1 blockchain owner.

This unique property of scarcity is a valuable property for financial products, in an obvious way. The issue is that an abundance of a scarce product is ripe for fraud. Oh, and of course there is no answer for the on-chain to in-IRL conversion for things like ownership.

Having this kind discussion would be good even through it is likely to tread ground that people might not want to think about.

One researched explanation is gender bias in how teachers grade student performance. Studies done over standardized test has demonstrated gains for boys when grading is done gender-blind. There has also been studies done that looked at the gender of the teacher which shown favoritism towards the teachers own gender. One explanation for that is that empathy is easier along race and gender lines which then impact grading to be more harsher towards the out group.

The one thing I would not look too much at is hormones of either girls or boys as it has a long history of being abused, over valued and miss-interpreted. Estrogens does not cause girls to become emotional unstable nor does testosterone cause boys to be become wild beasts. The biggest effect they have generally is to regulate behavior towards social status, which if its not obvious has a big dose of culture attached to it.

> And still lacks an L2 charger

The charger included with the bolt is 240V capable, though they don't really advertise it AFAIK.

> for $38k

MSRP on the Bolt is $31K. Historically they've routinely been available for under $25K. And you know what the Bolt has that the Tesla doesn't? CarPlay. And good windshield wiper controls. The Tesla has some upsides, for sure, I mostly enjoyed mine (primarily for it's speed, however). But at $25K vs $35K, I'd get the Bolt every time.
Interesting plan, but fair use would be a problem.
That is not normal. Every car I have owned has maintained its gas mileage unless something was wrong with it. My current vehicle is over 20 years old and is actually getting better gas mileage than it was when I bought it 3 years ago. I do keep up on maintenance more than the average person does tho.
From an American perspective, it is understandable that a group of religious fanatics grabed all attention by acts of extreme violence. But, from a non-American perspective, I think that too much resources were needlessly invested by the US to chase a faraway bunch of lunatics. Our attention was purposefully oriented by the USA towards the Middle East for what was unclear and uncertain at the time of invasion.

Why not simply take out the top leaders or commanders? Why not stage a coup d'état? Why not put in a place an embargo? Why not sanction the financiers of radicals?

The issue with China is they are deadbeat serious about economic growth. Masquerading as communists, speaking out as socialists but deep down thinking like mere capitalists. The historian makes comparison between Soviet Union and PRC that I think are erroneous. Crimea and Taiwan could be compared on the basis of territory size or cultural affinities. But unfortunately, China decided to focus on the Xinjiang region. From there, it borders more than 5 huge countries and the region is the basis for implementing their next decade growth engine i.e. belt and road project. They have more official manpower over there than on the Taiwan borders. They are effectively able to colonize the Uyghur region more than the overpopulated Taiwan island. Why bother making scenarios that China might invade a wealthy nation instead of a lawless region? The terrorists for America were in Middle East; the terrorists for China are not far from that location.

Really, China and SE Asia will continue their rise as it's evident that Americans are self-obsessed and lack commitment to long term goals. Interagency fights lead to zero sum games in the federal administration which will then destroy any valuable foreign policy strategy. Let's learn the lesson for goodness' sake. Truly speaking, the US has always been an immigrant country, so growth will certainly come from the new-comers. The issue is that for the last five years, the USA has portrayed itself as the most anti-immigrant land. It's been losing its appeal for talented professionals. Then it's hard for me to agree with a historian who is predicting the future out of thin air with plenty of bias.

Most probably, Xi's administration will move to Taiwan... to poach its tech talent pool. Until now, the Chinese media has not yet started beating drums for their army to go hunt ennemies in the South East Asia. Their focus and attention is really elsewhere.

The best thing about SOAP is that it drove industry-wide REST adoption. That had its own problems, but at least they were largely due to a failure of implementers to understand what using HTTP as an application rather than a transport protocol meant. And now we have GraphQL, which while it has its own faults[1] is far less unnecessarily complicated than SOAP and provides considerably more value.

Unless you are one of the first few engineers of what will become an Amazon, Google, Uber, etc... coming from a small company gives very little leverage on negotiations with recruiters, visbility, etc... , the scale of problems you deal with at FAANG is 100x bigger and more impacting than at a random placeholder.io company. I'm not saying there are not many engineers working at small companies better than some of the devs at FAANG, that's a fact. Also a company success very often, have very little to do with their engineers.

> Time in level determines promotions, not skill, not knowledge, time in level. Time in level is used because it’s the only objective system that works, anything else is too subjective and will open employers to lawsuits

Time in level results in an increase in level steps, not promotions (pay chart is a grid: level x steps). If it did, then everybody would be promoted at the same time, which can't happen because there are only so many openings. If you want to be promoted (i.e. increase in pay level), requirements are laid out very clearly. They do not happen automatically.

Huh my Pixel 3 XL also just died in a very similar way the battery was starting to lose charge faster than expected and a few nights ago it died again and then wouldn't power on. It was taking charge, I plugged it into a powerbank with a wattage meter, and it was pulling just 5W over USBC. (The powerbank supports full PD) It's probably the wrong spot to report this sadly so it's probably been muted it seems like a hardware issue not an issue with Android itself.
The extinction occurred exactly at the impact boundary. If you are denying a casual link then you are proposing an extreme coincidence.

Those military-age only children are expected to take care of their elderly parents and grandparents.

This is an important point. While the media love to paint all "anti-vaxxers" are rural republicans or Trump supports, this simply isn't true. There are many racial minority groups (African Americans in particular) who are vaccine hesitant. There are healthcare workers in both rural and big cities of both political parties who are hesitant on the vaccines.

Also the phrase "anti-vaxxers" is an intentional conflagration of two separate groups: the original pre-covid19 anti-vaxxers and anti-COVID19-vaxxers.
