This blog is not on why you should choose microservices, it's just about microservices communication, but let me start with saying I don't agree. I know a couple of friends from startups and they all build software using microservices. I have personally worked in large monoliths for close to 12 years (and last 4/5 years microservices). IMO, the biggest benefit of microservices is agility, you can build and deploy features incrementally and fast.
Nowadays with slick frameworks like Spring boot, Nest.js and all the tooling around (like Kubernetes) building microservices is much easier than building monolith. In the monolith world, we had developed a sophisticated, in-house framework for concurrent and distributed task management and I don' see the need for that kind of framework in microservices. In the last 3 years, I had never come across a single developer working on a "cloud-native" microservices project who can confidently answer a single thread question - but developing an auto-scaling application based on the Kubernetes is a piece of cake. How do you expect them to write a well-behaved monolith?
It's much easier to quote Sam Newman and Martin fowler, but sorry, I don't find all advice from pundits very practical. From Sam Newman's book "One of the things I see people having the hardest time with is the idea that microservices should avoid the use of shared databases. If a microservice wants to access data held by another microservice, it should go and ask that second microservice for the data. This gives the microservices the ability to decide what is shared and what is hidden, which allows us to clearly separate functionality that can change freely (our internal implementation) from the functionality that we want to change infrequently (the external contract that the consumers use)." How is this practical for each microservices to have its own database? Is it even possible in the cloud world where we consume databases as a service? The bottom line is - nowadays developing microservices is much easier than a monolith. You get lots of tooling - such as observability stack, resiliency out of the box. This just needs to be well supported by organization culture and practices (DevOps, SRE, incident management).
No, that test doesn’t give you any useful information, because all it told you was that your expected answer wasn’t found in the configured time interval. You have no way of knowing whether or not your expected behavior would be satisfied if you ran for t + 1 seconds.
As much credibility as the executive team at Philip Morris releasing an open letter outlining how smoking doesn’t cause cancer.
Your statement would be more compelling if it interesected with the person you responded to, maybe some evidence that the housing in Singapore responds in the way that you predict here. As it stands you're firmly in "old man yelling at cloud" territory with your predictions.
The setup I have for my shop is a tiny computer with OpnSense with the LAN port connected to a 5-port switch. I have an old wifi router with OpenWRT installed put in switch mode for wifi access to that network (plus extra ethernet ports). I was thinking of looking into putting my cable modem/router into modem-only mode and using a different router like I have in my shop for the local network.

My question is this: If there were vulnerabilities in my modem/router firmware, does putting it in modem-only mode and using a separate router/switch mitigate them? Does it depend on the specific vulnerability?
>They've kind of hit the limits on ICE engines with the Hellcat Dodges (for example) but there's no reason an EV couldn't have power to weight ratios that are actually dangerous.

Yes there is - the vastly more energy-dense fuel used by ICE cars.

The Hellcat Dodge's power to weight of 318 hp per tonne puts it more in the soccer mom category.

The Caterham 7 620, with a 2-liter engine, gets 500hp per tonne, and that's half of what some of the exotic supercars have.

For reference, a Tesla has around 350 hp/tonne.

I think your perception of what qualifies as motoring performance is sadly lacking.
Sorry, I still don’t see why having user count limitations would be a violation. The way I read it, they are compliant with Section 13. They are providing access to source code, as required.

Section 10 just says that they can’t litigate if I use/modify their freely available source code how I please.

Let’s say somewhere in their code there is a check for “user_count <= 5”. This isn’t a downstream restriction of GPL rights, it’s just a part of the code as they wrote it and I’m free to change it, as long as I make my changes to the code accessible.

I don’t see why this technical limitation would infringe any upstream GPL rights either.
Same.

My SO got quite upset a couple of years ago because I didn't know on the spot how old she got on her birthday. My explanation that it's much more efficient to remember the year she was born given that it doesn't change compared to her age fell on deaf ears..
Gas-powered cars are annoying to drive in traffic because the engine has a minimum RPM. EVs don't have that, so in stop-and-go traffic you'd be able to just leave it in 2nd gear the whole time and never touch the clutch.

A child comment stating its sensitivity to power dips may be the cause here. I don't have a UDM, but I do have a lot of Unifi equipment and the only issues I've ever had are an AP dropping clients and refusing to pick new ones up, and a switch latching onto a bad local route and refusing to let it go. Rebooting the devices fixed it in both cases.

By far, internet connectivity has never been better at my house. I've had various Netgear, D-Link, and Linksys devices. Unifi beats everything hands-down.
Thanks for the downvotes. I’ll be checking back in with an ‘I told you so’ in about 10 years
I hope RSS is finally old enough to be in fashion again, and people are starting to wake up to the fact that it's much superior to social media as a periodic content consumption venue. Social media is for posting cat pictures, wedding invitations and ancient jokes you heard for the first time yesterday. RSS is for creating curated periodic content streams. I've been using it since forever, and there's never been anything better. Well, maybe better format - RSS, Atom, whatever - but the idea is the same.

Hopefully people start to wake up to this finally? One can hope.
I’d also say homeowner economic incentives don’t even cover it. You buy into a community as it is — that’s what you saw the benefit of investing in not only economically but socially and in terms of years of your life. You may well be particular about its social, architectural, and natural features and resist change to them.

If that’s true, then affordable housing pushes that address individual incentives also need to address incentives around “social equity.”
Haven't built enough. You need to build so much that developers are going bankrupt because they can't sell their homes. That's the point where prices come down.

I think most people in the "we built, but prices didn't come down" underestimate the scale of the problem. The (Canadian) population of peak homebuying age (20-40) exceeds the population of peak die-off age (65-85) by about 6 million. If people are still coupling up (not a guarantee these days of later marriage), that's about 3 million homes needed. Vancouver is about 5% of the population of Canada, so assuming no migration to the cities (also not true), that's about 150,000 new housing units. How many were actually built in 2020? 8000.

The city basically needs to get bigger by about 50%, and this needs to be repeated across most of the hot cities in the developed world. What would that even look like? Vancouver, Seattle, Portland, and the Bay Area are basically land-constrained; for them to grow 50% bigger over a decade, you either need a lot of highrises, or every SFH needs to be converted to a duplex.
Managed platforms. Take Shopify for instance. It’s a platform that allows individuals with very little programming knowledge to build, ship, and operate online retail services, but doesn’t suffer from the segmentation of product lifecycle into dev and ops. The platform user still owns the end to end product lifecycle.
You really don't have that much construction in Vancouver. There's a ton downtown, and in spots here and there, but most of Vancouver proper is single-family dwellings. You complain about condos, but houses with yards are incompatible with dense cities and low housing prices. Just the cost of land for a house is over a million, there's no point building a middle-class house on it--they couldn't afford it anyway. So you build condos, apartments, or a luxury home.

And renter protections and limitations on rent increases are fairly strict in BC, which discourages the building of apartments. If you dropped the rent control, developers would be more likely to build apartments, with the possible result that rent might go down.

And having said that, rents are actually pretty low in Vancouver. When I moved down to Seattle from there, my rent went way up, in spite of the fact that housing was way more expensive in Vancouver at the time (2011). Last time I checked, that remained true: rent for a fancy downtown 2-br apartment in Vancouver was about $2k Canadian, equivalent in Seattle was over $2.5k USD.

Look to Tokyo for a city that eliminated zoning and rent controls, and is surprisingly affordable for a huge international city. You'll never see it on a cost-of-living list with Vancouver, New York, Paris, Sydney, etc.
The exact thing Jake Tapper said is that the pandemic has a higher death toll than the 1918 pandemic.

Yes, you can come up with alternative measures for why it is not as significant (higher population, length of time it has taken to kill the same number of people, or that because it is old people with co-morbidities dying, the deaths are less significant, which are all present in the article), but when measuring by death count alone, it has a higher toll.
This is already happening in banking (Europe): Google for PSD2 and Open Banking. Financial institutions are required to provide Third Party Providers API-acccess to customer data (if the customer has provided his/her consent to do so)
I feel pretty confidant that the ability to move somewhere for a couple years would be safe. Rental markets can be handled by multi-tenant housing (suites and laneway houses), shared living spaces, socialized student housing, and private second home rentals, and of course just buying a house for a couple years...

> Huge transaction fees and risks related to owning

When houses cost millions, yes this is true. But if we got house prices down to an actually affordable level, this would not be such a concern. If I decided today to move to winnipeg for a couple years, houses are so cheap (at least compared to what I'm used to) that I'd strongly consider just buying a house or a condo for the time I was there.
In that case I think the proper response should be: “I am very sure that browsers don’t do it that way. But let’s have a look.” And then pull up the source code for Chromium and Firefox. Assuming it’s not whiteboard only.

And if they still insist even after the source of Chromium and FF has been consulted. Well then it’s time to leave. Don’t want to work with anyone like that.
This isn’t actually true. It’s right there in the sources you quoted.

> either depressed mood or the loss of interest or pleasure in nearly all activi­ties

Note the “or” rather than an “and”, meaning it can be the second half only. And also note that lack of interest/pleasure does not mean you’re sad, it just means you don’t enjoy activities. It’s actually quite different!

Additionally, the DSM paints depression as a constellation of symptoms - so even if you don’t have A.1 you could have a couple of the others and still be depressed.

> clinical depression is indeed the blues, but also some other stuff on a list of 8, for an extended period of time

The most precise statement would actually be “clinical depression can be the blues, but could also be a set of other symptoms.”
If I hadn't been told what this is, I would never have guessed that it's a representation of all colors. I know it's all the colors -- I can zoom in and see lots of different colors -- but why doesn't it look like that? My initial description would have been "purple and green squares". I might elaborate that it's "purple and green squares with a bit of blue separating the rows". But why doesn't it feel like all colors? Because of the way it's organized? For the same reason that his randomized pixels looks like a grey blob?
> it’s abundantly clear that these are just simple stitches of the training toons.

That's not how GANs work in general. With a limited training set the end result may appear as if they were stitched together samples, but that's not what happens under the hood.

Interpolation videos make it obvious that it encodes visual concepts, can freely manipulate them and even crank up parameters beyond anything found in the training set, thus giving exaggerated results.
Yes. Top tier of talent, experience, and companies. There are many excellent developers who don't make that money either.
The vast majority of developers are around $100k.

I think a sanity check heuristic applies: if the environmental effects on health were big enough to matter, the local government would turn the whole area into an exclusion zone (if effects were negative) or a vacation place (if they were positive). Since those things don't seem to happen, we can tentatively assume those effects don't rise above the noise floor.

(Same thing applies to dietary disinformation: if some foodstuffs were to actually increase your chance of cancer meaningfully, they'd be classified as hazardous substances. If they were to visibly improve your health, they'd be regulated as drugs.)

Housing is multiple markets even within narrow geographic bounds. We could produce a lot of apartments and they would be affordable, but a single family home a mile away may still gain value faster than inflation.

Making the ownership of a single family home affordable is in contradiction with making that a good investment vehicle.
It's probably quaint to this generation, but decades ago, I learned how to manage (not eliminate) fear, worry, and anxiety by reading Dale Carnegie's How to Stop Worrying and Start Living. It's still published. Though his anecdotes are from the thirties and forties, it's a fun read. It worked for me.
Not easy, but probably not near impossible, but I imagine they’re more of less mid-level and not entry level roles.

You’d probably do better to spend your time doing leetcode prepping for the interviews though if they’re your goals.
Got it. In all of the above, there's also the implicit assumption that I'll be good enough in coding to be able to benefit from the higher optionality in comp in tech, which is not a given.

Yes. When developers take on new projects or roles, the programming isn't the hard part; it's the domain. There's also a lot of momentum in the fintech world these days.
Not a single source backing the claims made in this article. It boils down to some person having decided to exclude some words from their common vocabulary.
Non-caching isn't accurate either though, as the story about the man who found portions of an incognito view cached and displayed when he opened a game in front of other family members makes clear.

IIRC, this was not considered a bug.
To me, this sounds like a fake story, almost propaganda. If it’s real, there’s something strange going on

> The Times report, citing Swedish psychologist, says the children “usually woke up” after their families were granted residency, although not overnight.

https://nypost.com/2021/03/31/mystery-of-sleeping-refugee-ch...

From wikipedia:

> More recently, this phenomenon has been called into question, with two children witnessing that they were forced by their parents to act apathetic in order to increase chances of being granted residence permits.[3][4] As evidenced by medical records, healthcare professionals were aware of this scam, and witnessed parents who actively refused aid for their children but remained silent at the time. Later Sveriges Television, Sweden's national public television broadcaster, were severely critiqued by investigative journalist Janne Josefsson for failing to uncover the truth.[5] In March 2020, a report citing the Swedish Agency for Medical and Social Evaluation, SBU, said "There are no scientific studies that answer how to diagnose abandonment syndrome, nor what treatment works."

Regarding number 2, I can’t help but notice the inflection point of homeowner equity is ~1965, right in between the 1964 and 1968 civil rights statutes. Smells like “segregation with extra steps” to me: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/OEHRENWBSHNO

To the crowd at large: I would love to learn more about what exactly changed during this time period to change peoples’ incentives on such a massive scale. Was there some change in law/regulations to make housing a “safer” investment for people, besides just tanking the interest rates for other types of investments like is all over the news these days? Links or hints would be very appreciated :)
IMO, it's not silly at all. Most devs have to know the commands and configuration to do rolling deployments on the target infrastructure, fetch logs, how the readiness protocoll integrates with automatic restarts, ingress, etc.
With k8s, all this is standard and transferable. With ad-hoc simpler solutions, this is all per-team tribal knowledge, and in my experience it's not even simpler to use for us devs.
I assume they meant "some regex implementation, including replace and/or match groups".

The readme for bpytop links to btop++

https://github.com/aristocratos/bpytop

It says:

> The Linux version of btop++ is complete. Released as version 1.0.0

My impression is that btop++ is the successor to bpytop. Or even if bpytop continues to be maintained that they intend for most people to use btop++ instead going forward.
This is definitely the solution but you’ll get downvoted to hell for saying it out loud.

We’re allowing people to snatch up houses for the sole purpose of profit. They’re not improving the houses in any material way - they’re just rent-seekers. The left would have you believe that lifting zoning restrictions would end the problem but that’s just silly - why would we destroy the environment even further by building more houses just to protect some rent-seeking landlord?

We’re wasting real productivity and land and providing no value to the economy by protecting these blood-sucking landlords by building more houses. Renting should be explicitly limited to apartments due to their space efficiency. Short-term rentals should be limited to hotels for the same reason.

Downvote me as you will but at least provide a justification for the destruction of the environment solely to shift some bank-account numbers. This seems just as bad as crypto apologists.

Needless to say when I just recently did that with the two program managers in a fortune 500 I got punished.

It leaves you wondering why these big corps have program and project managers when they:

- consistently don't have an agenda

- completely ignore scope

- don't even try to define scope

- keep talking about being productive

- keep getting promoted for creating powerbi dashboards of other people's work
Depending on the country, it can be due to local regulation. I don’t think it is required yet in the US

I used to work in a 5-storey office building in Sunnyvale, CA (special permission required to build it). I could look out the window and see 10 miles in every direction. It was a vast sea of aging 60s bungalows. Also the most expensive place to live in the US. All my coworkers commuted for hours every day from the distant suburbs.

You ask what we should be building, and where? How about replacing old single-family homes in the Bay Area or Los Angeles with high-rises, or at least mid-rises...or at the very least town houses or something!

Anyone trying to ”bust this myth” are to me suspect of either selling snake oil or just trying to defend their own mediocrity.

If anything the problem is usually understated, as a big problem in larger teams become people who actually add negative net productivity to a team. Also, not to be forgotten (and also covered in books like Waltzing with bears) are people who act as multipliers to the whole team by making the team “gel”.

Nothing new here on the complexity. AOL had a similar service dependency graph around 2004 or earlier. Paypal had a considerably denser graph I made post-D3 in I don’t 2012? 1000 services by name (some segregation by QoS so maybe less code than that implies). The core graph or central service dependencies (removing all the services that just called other services and weren’t themselves called, repeatedly till nothing could be removed) was like a hundred, with many loops.
I'm curious which law you speak of. From the chart, it looks like something happened in 2018, but when I googled [seattle higher density on sfh lots] or [seattle single family upzone], I only got articles from this year saying that such legislation was being considered.
