Well, it's not like nobody has ever thought of that before. The best we've been able to do is deterrence, which requires developing advanced weapons like aircraft carriers, stealth fighters and nukes.

I know this isn't what you had in mind, but the world is about to find out what it's like to not have superpowers interfering in their affairs. The US doesn't really have any need for troops abroad: the Cold War is over, the War on Terror is over, and there's plenty of oil at home. Americans have noticed that depending on foreign manufacturing for key products like medicines and microchips isn't so great when trade is disrupted, and there are going to be a lot more disruptions without the US military to stabilize things. That's going to cause America to do more manufacturing at home and further disengage with the world.

That's not exactly peace, but at least it's not war.

I absolutely do that, and I noticed that I do it to compensate for 'autonomy deficit', as I dubbed it.

When my day was dictated by external demands, I play PC games in the evening, because they provide the illusion of autonomy and control, and because "I'm doing what I want to do" and having "me time" which I was lacking during the day.

There isn't a linear relationship here. If our militaries were 50% weaker, we'd have thought twice before iraq 2 and we wouldn't be rattling the sabre at iran would we? So right now, for the US and allies, more preparing for war means more (pointless, wasteful) wars...

To add some context, before efood almost every shop had its own delivery people, who usually worked off the books, uninsured, providing their own motorcycles, gas, etc. Efood luckily improved on this, but trying to roll it back produced this immense backlash.
Can someone shed some light on the full use-case of Tailscale/Zerotier/Nebula please? I may be not getting something fully.

The question is this. Say, I use one of the above to form a private mesh network for the nodes that an organization needs to have access to. So far so good. But on the machine side I would still want to have key (ideally certificate) based authentication, and some user management, such that access can be revoked. Is this an anti-pattern? Or do people use something like Go Teleport in combination with a zero trust mesh network?
He had grants for 0.25% of the company but left when only 1/3 of them were vested . Gitlab will probably IPO for at least a $10 billion valuation. Assuming no further dilution since the grant, the shares would be worth $8.3 million for a $4050 option exercise.

Someone has to be in charge of the border though. There was an “ICE” before ICE. It’s fine to abolish and replace it but that’s not really going to solve the underfunding problem. In fact, abolishing and reforming ICE is practically the origin story of ICE to begin with and clearly no one is happy with how that turned out. Why would you want to write a sequel to that?

Are studies like this that make me loose respect for a part of the Medical community the CDC included. In the last few hours of course this study is already being quoted in the media.

The conclusions:

Vaccine effectiveness against COVID-19 hospitalization during March 11–August 15, 2021, was higher for the Moderna vaccine (93%) than the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine (88%) and the Janssen vaccine (71%).

The critical point here folks, is "during March 11–August 15"

Their conclusion...

===========================================================

"What are the implications for public health practice?
"Although these real-world data suggest some variation in levels of protection by vaccine, all FDA-approved or authorized COVID-19 vaccines provide substantial protection against COVID-19 hospitalization."

===========================================================

Part they forgot to mention...."during March 11–August 15"...

Also...They are measuring Vaccine Effectiveness not Efficacy

"How do vaccine effectiveness studies differ from vaccine efficacy studies?"

https://www.cdc.gov/flu/vaccines-work/effectivenessqa.htm

And one of the critical differences is:

"Vaccine effectiveness studies include people with underlying medical conditions who have been administered vaccines by different health care providers. Vaccine effectiveness studies can be used to determine if higher risk groups of people (often excluded from clinical trials/RCTs) respond differently to the vaccine."

From the study they got 5484 and excluded 1786 patients for
having immunocompromising conditions. Fine but that is about 32% of their universe...

Please remind me when and where these 32% of a certain population has been allowed to be excluded from current vaccine mandates?

The dumb part is that they insist on including "Windows" in the name. What other subsytems would you have in Windows than Windows subsystems? The Windows part is implied. Otherwise it would not be a _sub_system, right? The only reason it is there is because some marketing idiot wanted more branding.

So the Linux subsystem should be called... Linux subsystem. Searching on Google would lead to type "linux subsystem for windows" and it would not be hard for Google to direct you to the right Microsoft website.
I've not even mentioned Ruby.

Laziness does not exist (2018)
If I'm not mistaken, the "rust people" were not involved in "Rust for windows". It's just a normal rust crate which wraps the windows API, developed by Microsoft.

That's part of what makes this kind of naming so confusing. "Rust for Windows" sounds like some kind of development in the rust language in the direction of supporting windows, but it's just a library.

I can imagine a trademark holder taking issue with something like this. For instance, imagine the Ford auto compnay marketed their USB port, which you can plug an iPhone into, as "iPhone for Ford Trucks".

edit:

Look at the title in the Rust for Windows github: https://github.com/microsoft/windows-rs

> Rust for the Windows SDK

What does that even mean? "Rust implementation of the Windows SDK API", or "Rust Wrapper for the Windows SDK" would make sense, but this phrasing is completely foreign to anyone doing software.
This week in KDE: so many Wayland improvements, and more
The funny thing reading this post is that you can replace "music" with "software" and your point still holds.

Nowadays it's very easy to create OK software - with modern frameworks, tooling and templates we've enabled an army of "high performing beginners". For web software we can even deploy it with two clicks thanks to modern cloud providers.

However making something that is good or great, as ever, requires a huge amount of knowledge and experience. The kind you only get with years of practise and learning.
Hmm. Thinking about it as an integral of cross sections, the torus is just a cylinder with height equal to the circumference of the circle that defines the center of its tube. And I see that that is correct, at least for non-weird tori.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torus goes on to say this:

> [For a non-weird torus,] The volume of this solid torus and the surface area of its torus are easily computed using Pappus's centroid theorem

> These formulas are the same as for a cylinder of length 2πR and radius r, obtained from cutting the tube along the plane of a small circle, and unrolling it by straightening out (rectifying) the line running around the center of the tube.

> The losses in surface area and volume on the inner side of the tube exactly cancel out the gains on the outer side.

Emphasis mine; that third sentence is weirding me out. Still thinking about it as an integral of cross sections, I can't see why the surface area or volume of the inner half of the torus should be different from the surface area / volume of the outer half. Are they?

This looks like an amazing undertaking, especially seeing the comparison to the bluray version. I was planning on watching the trilogy on bluray but I guess I have better plans now. :) Thank you!

Being a child of the 90s and of the digital era I am always endlessly amazed at the quality and potential of film.

Naturally. What we haven't done before is invested in tools. We've invested trillions to make tools for advertising, but almost nothing to make tools for achieving peace.

I'm not suggesting war or deterrence can be obsoleted. Human nature is what it is.

> Not all thoughts are concise and straightforward. That's not a problem that can be solved.

My observation is that inexperienced programmers have this kind of mess in their head. No programming language can help with that. Hard to tell because I'm not sure what exactly you mean.

> Concision by itself is not something to optimize for,

Concision is one of the aspects. Too much and the code is unreadable. Not enough and code is too long. In both cases mental effort grows and maintainability suffers.
Almost certainly not. For pickpocket we could say that it's an old word, and maybe English had a weaker preference for right-headedness when it arose. But that's more difficult for kiss-ass.
Unravelling the `Async with` Statement
the experiment showcases basics of biology. A biological population is mostly controlled by scarcity of resources. Decreasing scarcity leads to population growth. That leads to increased density. Fast changes don't allow for sufficient smooth adaptation, and instead cause breakdown of existing related patterns (in that particular case fast density increase breaks social behavior patterns which evolved to manage much lesser density). That applicable to any biological system, not just mice and people.

I like this, but somehow I wonder, was this the right thing to do? I would say it wasn't, because both parties lost: lmilcin had to quit, some colleagues felt ashamed (rightly or not), and at the end Elasticsearch wasn't taken into account as solution.

Now, my cynic side of me also wonders: perhaps Elasticsearch wasn't the answer and that's why the proposal was shot down? We'll never know. What I do know is this: software engineering is as much about humans as it is about tech, so even if you know you are (technically) right, don't forget to address the issue from a human perspective (i.e., convince your colleagues that your solution is right, but don't make fun of them by highlighting how one individual (you) can make the whole project "in just 1h").

If immunocompromized people were in the study obviously the results would be even worse, but you’d be happy because you could dismiss it because it includes all these immunocompromized people tainting the results.

How do you do form validations, translations, database access, migrations, email sending, background jobs that don't die on a deployment, user authentication, file uploads, caching, etc?

Of course all of this can be done, you just need to take 100 decisions and tie together 256 libraries many of them probably abandoned in a few years from now.

If you don't need any of that, then just what I said before: ok, you never needed rails from the get go.

Presumably the project is the last step, when they are basically just checking that you are as good as you say you are. Like checking references. At that point you should already be 90% certain to be hired, not 20%.

But software engineering IS about politics as well! We always think that SE is only about tech and being right and smart... the reality is: one needs to be technically right AND play politics in order to achieve anything within a company. lmilcin was probably technically right, but he didn't play well the politics part of the equation. Result? He had to quit, and he company didn't get a better search solution.

If you have something of value and you cannot protect it, someone will take it from you. That is just how the world works.

So how will you protect yourself? You cannot just convert eveyone to zen buddhism. You will have to find a way to protect yourself, so you can say: here is the limit that you cannot cross.

Peace can only exist when a powerful entity enforces it.
> "we can't afford to pay people enough to do all of the jobs we want done."

Probably more accurate to say "we can afford to pay people enough to do all the jobs we want done -but- it would require a more equitable distribution of wealth and that's not going to happen any time soon"
That's rarely the case.

Leadership is usually representative of merit, and merit comes from putting in the work.

I believed like OP involute gears had true rolling motion with no slide however quoting Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Involute_gear):

"Where the line of action crosses the line between the two centres, it is called the pitch point of the gears, where there is no sliding contact."

So I learnt something :)

I also believed torque varied slightly because the point of contact between teeth was not at a constant distance of the gears centers. Illustration: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Involute_gear#/media/File:Invo...

Would you have sources for the affirmation "constant torque transmission during tooth contact"?

I'd argue the European Union was an experiment in peace along these lines, to bind a war-torn continent so close together that war becomes unthinkable. And it's worked - war between France and Germany, or the UK and Ireland, or Denmark and Sweden is unthinkable.
