This completely overlooks the desires of the people that want the products the company provides at a reasonable price. This is not going away, regardless of how you structure things. People like to eat food and use washing machines.

The notion that profit is the root of the problem is implying that removing the profit will resolve it. History shows that this never works.

Socialism produces more environmental degradation, because it cannot produce things as efficiently as free market businesses can. So, to make up the gap, they pay little attention to the environment.
> It is strange that this community of all communities has such a resistance to this idea.

I don't think many people here have any resistance to this. It's simply true. I think a lot of people, though, think that benefit isn't sufficient to overcome the drawbacks.
One crucial difference is around authority. Traditional project managers can generally exercise authority over the people doing the work to get what they want.

With a program manager/people manager split, it might be the case that the person leading the project has to truly lead, because the actual authority sits with the people manager. May or may not be a better structure.

> Aren't Cloudflare Workers more comparable to AWS Lambda@Edge than regular Lambda?

Yes that's my point. Unlike AWS Lambda, the usefulness of Cloudflare Workers is very specialized and narrow, like adding response headers or update a response document.

AWS Lambdas on the other hand can run freely for over 15min, have virtually no limit in how much RAM they can use, and can be pushed as a Docker image with a max size of 10GB.

If that is not enough, AWS Lambdas can be tied together into workflows with AWS step function.

Therefore, for anyone to claim that Cloudflare Workers win over AWS Lambdas, either they have no idea what AWS Lambdas are or have no idea what Cloudflare Workers are.

As a dev, telemetry makes me nervous because so many projects rely on it too heavily and make bad design decisions because the telemetry blinds them.
So the country would rather buy finished products and finance foreign R&D than build them and have innovation happening at home?

You can just use https://github.com/Nomarian/Awk-Batteries/blob/master/Units/... and use as so

awk -f ./ucsv.awk -e '{print $5}'

Also this

Is incorrect per https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4180 so you should just fix it with a sed -i 's/\\"/""/g' and then just parse as normal.

This would not cover BART, which is not an SF run system. It would not cover SAMTRANS. This is just SF muni (busses and a handful of trolley lines) -- I think trolleys also were excluded as these are for raising money from tourists.

Honestly they rarely bother even to ask for fares. The problem with SF Muni is that the buses are dirty, smelly, and travel along at an average speed of about 8 miles per hour. This, combined with the fact that the buses always appear at random times and can never be ontime creates a very unpleasant experience that is only marginally better than walking.

My experience in most enterprises is that we don't get to pick all the tools and sometimes we don't even get asked our opinion. Recent case: The data team picked S3 for storage, and they picked Power BI for analysis. Don't ask me why they didn't ask my opinion at the time (What would I know, I'm only the principal cloud architect here).

Things like operational overhead don't always get a look in when a team has convinced someone with the purchasing authority that tool X is going to solve all their problems. Even if the entire org has zero experience with it and it's going to have flow on effects.

A recent example at one of my customers was a team deciding to outsource a platform to the provider. (Outsource, not SaaS it's a managed service hosted in AWS). I told them the network design and AWS build on our side to join the two would require significant effort and they said that's fine. Now we've spent almost their entire budget for the move on just working out how to connect their VPC to ours (there are some legislated controls we had to put in place and the vendor architects were less than helpfull). Of course it's all my team's fault because we are the ones who say "you can't just plug the two together" and it would be much better if we had a "can-do attitude like the other team instead of naysaying all the time."

One of my big realizations as I've gotten more work experience is just how much momentum matters in business. Brand awareness along with existing customers and relationships is huge.

Soupault (soup-oh) is a tool that helps you create and manage static websites
Came across this too just now. For a moment I was hoping that they'd trained some machine learning algorithm on the past evolution of the sites in their archive in order to extrapolate how sites may change in the future, and that they'd have thrown in some futuristic design elements in the mix.

But the way that this thing works is pretty satisfying too. In terms of conveying a message about our future I mean.
Vaccinated people are less likely to be infected in the first place (never forget that pre-symptomatic transmission is a huge factor driving the spread of this virus). So a room full of vaccinated people, all else being equal, should include fewer infected individuals than a mixed or unvaccinated room. Additionally, all of those vaccinated diners are less likely to contract the virus if an infected person does happen to be in the same space.

So in that sense, having all-vaccinated people in any given indoor space is vastly preferable to alternative.

Synchronising happens all the time! Not only with people, even with animals, and even pendulum clocks on rollers.

We clap along together to the beat of songs, and the physical movement causes our heartbeat to change and therefore synchronise. Sharing that experience is a good thing!

When walking around the local supermarket, I noticed that everyone was walking in-step. Then I took off my headphones, and noticed that they were following the beat of the piped music in the background. It was much easier to navigate the store without conflict or bumping into people, because we had that shared clock signal.

Could background music, or even something more simple like a ticking clock, make people more synchronised with each other? I think it could be a good thing.

So I think the difference is, in the lab leak scenario, that's relatively _easy_ to solve; it's just a case of increasing standards in a rather small number of facilities.

That doesn't offer a real solution.

Harsh bashing on global variables is such a dumb thing.

Yes, they can be dangerous. Yes, many had problems due to using them. Yes, we should tell beginners to avoid globals.

But there is no reason to ban them altogether. Experienced programmers should utilize them whenever it makes sense (instead of passing down a value of a local one to almost every function [sic]).
It seems to be standard practice to be as fuzzy as possible during an outage, and only share details later. Probably avoids anyone looking stupid if the initial hunch turns out to be wrong.

I'd be with you on this one, but his ban is coming off an announcement they are banning vaccine misinformation as well as all the last posts even on Twitter are relating to the vaccine.

There certainly are tasks where a 2% failure rate is fine, but even more importantly, where we see ML/DL having the biggest impact today is in regards to complex system-type problems, where there is often a less-than-discrete notion of failure.

Looking at apps we use every day, almost all of them owe some core feature to ML/DL. ETA prediction, translation, search, spam filtering, speech synthesis, autocomplete, recommendation engines, fraud detection—and that's not even touching the world of computer vision behind nearly every popular photo app.

A key understanding gap in the general public's knowledge of ML is that people think AI === Skynet, and they've therefore been lied to about the field's progress and impact, when in reality, they probably interface with a dozen pieces of technology that are built on top of recent breakthroughs in ML/DL.
And suddenly I'm reminded of the web app I put together that needed three DB drivers...

I have friends who grew up in the Soviet bloc. I once witnessed a hilarious conversation between one of them and another friend who was a committed socialist (I don't de-friend people because of their politics). My socialist friend would say "X under socialism would be better". The other would say "I lived under socialism, and here's how and why X was worse." Socialist would say "but that won't happen under socialism". The other would say "you have zero experience with this, I lived under it. You have no idea what you are talking about."

The back and forth like this would go on for a while.
What you described is what used to be (still is?) called “soft skills”. This is not, from my experience, what people understand by “cultural fit”. At least in NYC it really meant exactly all that you mentioned on your second list.
Precisely. Another commenter said they were shocked to see this community have a negative reaction to telemetry in this instance (and/or generally), and this is why: For-Profit corporations have routinely and repeatedly demonstrated that they should never be given the benefit of the doubt in this area. The developers and engineers in charge of game balance or mechanics may be people we can intellectually relate to and understand the positive value of telemetry, but we more than most should also be aware of how those same people have management to answer to who see something to be abused to improve monetization.

It can be a good thing, yes. Why on earth would anyone assume it would be used and only used in positive, privacy respecting ways in this day and age?

But, however in that regard it is interesting to see the shoe on the other foot for Firefox this time around.

Historically Firefox used to rely on remembering recent intermediates it had seen to "fill in the blanks" when trying to access a site that doesn't bother providing any reason to trust the certificate it offers†.

But, Mozilla spent years collecting knowledge of all unconstrained intermediates for trusted root CAs. Then they shipped the entire set as part of Firefox. So, a modern Firefox visiting a site that only has a Let's Encrypt certificate and no other reason to be trusted, sees that and goes oh, that's issued by Let's Encrypt's R3, which I have a copy of, and so it's trustworthy. Done.

Whereas for several other popular browsers they're looking at potentially stale local information, and may conclude that they can't trust this site because some stale data has expired or they rely on an already expired certificate sent to them in some cases rather than disregarding it.

† You're supposed to provide a "chain" (it doesn't actually need to be a chain, but that's most compatible) of other certificates to show why the leaf certificate you have is trustworthy, e.g. my certificate is from Z9, Z9 has a certificate from Big Trusted Corp Q46, Big Trusted Corp Q46 has a certificate from Very Famous Trusted CA, and the relying party (well, their client software) goes, "Oh, I see, and I trust Very Famous Trusted CA, so that means I trust you're you". But, lots of web sites (maybe 10-20% and more of the smallest with negligible IT budget) don't get this correct so web browsers try to work around it.

Well as a speaker of British English, I suppose that's where I fell down.

They're very much not synonyms as far as I'm concerned, my 'exhausting' was a joke, being 'very tiring, causing exhaustion' vs. the 'every possible element, comprehensive' from your Wiktionary link for 'exhaustive'.

You can't possibly check everywhere. I don't say that out of some sort of extinction denial! I assume there are standards in the field for time since sighting over certain number of known habitats or percentage coverage of land or whatever that indicates extinction.

I just wouldn't call that 'after exhaustive search', personally. 'Extensive', sure. 'Sufficient to meet criteria for extinction' is what matters.

I can imagine a version based on an emulation using a small ARM with the same physical keyboard and box, minus (or maybe not) floppy. The board is costly, and they expect to sell a finite number of units, so they need to recover the cost of the plastic injection tooling within that batch.

Having future versions based on emulated hardware would open up a market and drive down unit costs to more THEC64 Maxi levels, which would be extremely beneficial.

I'm looking forward to more retro machines, even if based on emulators, but with accurate physical reproductions of vintage hardware.

For lots of platforms, the physical object is not that important - We have 102/104-key with layouts that replicate most post PC-AT Unix workstations - it's the same layout we use, that the Archimedes and its descendants used, that most SGI's, most HP's and most other post-AT computers used. For those, the most important physical aspects are easy to replicate. If you really want, even a Trinitron tube can be replicated with a flexible OLED display and some bent plastic.

For computers like the C-64, 128, 65, Amigas, 8-bit Ataris, ST's, Apple II's, ///s, and earlier Macs, Sun workstations, Lisp machines, Alto's, Lilith's, DECs and others, the illusion will break if you use a PC keyboard and mouse. It'll feel strange.

1,000 reads per second is 2.6 billion per month. At S3 prices, that wound cost around $1,040.

> Anyway - you mean I don't need static IP to form a network of distant IoT devices? This would be some really useful property.

Yes, wireguard will "keep alive" a connection to peers by sending udp packets. This fools stateful sufficiently to allow traffic to migrate across networks easily. Kind of how push notifications magically follow you.

On top of those connections, wireguard establishes its own IP addresses for each peer. If you set up wireguard, senging a packet over IP that is one of your wireguard peers will get tunnelled through UDP to the peer at its location and real IP. Thus, you know the node by the WG IP, but it gets delivered seamlessly via whatever means necessary.

VPNs have done this forever. Wireguard makes it trivial and portable and fast.
