I'm not even talking about ITER here. Let them have their own nice European pork barrel boondoggle, though I'd point out that even if it fails miserably, it's still generating valuable science and technological capabilities that cannot be generated or sustained any other way, so it's not a "waste of resources". We're talking about these projects as if they'd offer marginal, rather than _radical_ improvements in our situation, which is simply not true. If this is done this will completely upend the world and make it a better place - there's no doubt in my mind on this whatsoever. This is the _only_ environmental thing I wouldn't mind paying more taxes for, but I'd argue we don't even need that - we just need to look a little bit ahead and allocate existing resources towards longer term, riskier things benefits from which we _know_ will absolutely dwarf the investment. The reason why this is not happening is because we have trillions of dollars flowing into other troughs from which everyone involved is used to feeding. Until we disrupt those arrangements somehow our only chance of solving this is private sector investment, but private sector can't sustain things of this magnitude over an extended period of time. Not unless Musk gets involved.
Doesn’t EE/CE stuff generally cap out lower than software?

I've done this using my credit card company (not the bank) and they were very helpful. I explained why I wanted them to stop the recurring payment and they asked if I wanted to dispute any of the older charges, took less than 5 minutes. I call the 'fraud/disputes' phone number on the back of my card for this and I think that is not the bank, I think it's Visa / Mastercard themselves.

Sorry but providing three more links to your blog does not contribute to the threaded discussion. If you'd like to ask OP that question, you can ask OP on OP's comment.

Otherwise, I'm still not sure why you don't include both (well established) theories, in addition to your own practice in your post.
I find the writing style tedious: The author expects a reader who does not know about `make` or cross compilers to relate to writing ARM64 assembly for the bootloader.

If I am following along this material, then I don't need all the digressions with close enough descriptions of the tools. Like, if I am reading a home building tutorial, don't explain what a hammer is.
Funny how the pipeline company's "property" is cut and dry, but a 200 year-old treaty guaranteeing access to that land isn't recognized, is't it?

The problem with the police that I'm talking about here is that they readily apply violence to suppress protest on behalf of corporate interests, when the legal situation is actually far more complex.

If it's just so simple as "the pipeline companies meet with the police every day," do tribal leaders get the same courtesy?

This is a great point. I would have loved to buy an EV (or trade in my current gas vehicle which I don’t use all that much for an EV), but the logistical annoyances of charging it in a busy city appear to be substantial.
Also, we have lots of energy storage options that produce minimal amounts of waste.

Flywheels, molten salt, iron air batteries, literally dozens of alternative systems exist that are all viable and variably scalable power grid stabilization systems that can work harmoniously with renewable generation to keep electricity available to the consumer at both the individual and commercial level.

It needs a lot of financial and engineering investment to make headway, and these decisions would have to come from government leadership as otherwise there are too many cats to corral to ever make is succeed.

I don’t think it misses the point at all. The world is amazing today, and a larger number of people than ever get to experience an extraordinary standard of living.

And I totally think it’s true that people don’t realize how much they’re spending on modern conveniences that could be easily cut out if they wanted to live more cheaply.
It's possible that the CEO is right and the position is going for 5x less than market rate so only the bottom tier people want to take it. But also that Firefox is doomed no matter what they do. Chrome, Safari, and Edge are now all very good browsers that come by default. No one has a reason to install a different browser. An even cheaper CEO may not even be able to preserve the slow burn Mozilla is at and may just immediately crash it.

> Currently C8s are appreciating their first year, which is really weird.

Why is that weird? That seems typical for new, extremely popular cars where supply isn’t meeting demand. It happened years ago with the PT Cruiser, and when Mini (re-)entered the US market. It’s happened with Teslas too. Right now it’s happening with the C8 Corvette and Ford Bronco, which are both really tough to find on dealer lots. In 5 or 10 years, they’ll have depreciated like more typical used cars. The tough part is guessing when supply will become sufficient (and values will drop).
These numbers should be taken with a grain of salt. Which kinds of people are participating in this IEEE study? I bet those people fit into different demographics and receive different compensation relative to the rest of tech.
Can we just agree that none of these tools (Terraform, CloudFormation, CDK) are particularly good? None of them really achieve the goal of purely declarative, immutable, stateless infrastructure-as-code and all of them have significant disadvantages.
Young tech employees with valuable transferable skills vs. typical food bank user (not meant as a slight!) are different populations most likely.
True, that life is short and they are decent at cost/benefits.
From prior (user) experience, typically staff have non-wrenched alt accounts for just chilling out in streams (with less concern about conduct, but generally tame by twitch standards). But will wrench up for higher profile streams or folks they're otherwise pretty close with personally.

I suspect that's a lot more controlled these days, but it wasn't very uncommon for signified staff to be trolling along with everyone else.
I think Yang's painted picture of the world is to capture the disconnect between modern society's fast paced improvements and government's resistance to change.

Ironically, the fast paced improvements of modern society is because government has kept the economy and country stable, but that may soon change. Stability is needed in times of prosperity to continue prosperity. Stability in bad times is perpetuated hopelessness.

The forward party I think predicts that times ahead is not going to be prosperous for the majority, and that a slow moving government will not service the times very well.

I don't think anybody is streaming this stuff on twitch with the intention to make money, anymore than someone sharing it on a blog is trying to make money. Sure, in that edge case I'd agree with you, but it seems like the exception to the rule (after all people can just go look at the code themselves for free). I'm not talking about the guy who stole the code and is likely ransoming Amazon with it - I'm talking about people that just like to talk about code because it's something they like to do (there's an entire category for it on twitch already).

> Apparently a lot of payment information, telephone numbers, etc. was also in the leak. I don't think we should downloading or encouraging people to download and peruse that stuff.

My limited understanding is none of this information actually has been leaked yet, and is likely part of a future ransom (I could be wrong, I haven't looked because I don't care). I don't condone sharing that either, but that's not what the guy streaming was sharing. I'm talking about discussing the source code which is already publicly available.

> Copyright would disagree with you

I know very little about copyright so I'll just assume you're right. I still see no ethical problem with openly discussing this code publicly though. Anyway, agree to disagree.

Anonymizing Data Isn't Enough to Protect Privacy
Got it, thank you! I'm just wondering about whether this limitation can be alleviated / worked around by combining sharding and replication. In that case, I would expect the primary DB cluster to maintain the write lock during shard rebalancing, while allowing writes to replicas (upon primary cluster's rebalancing finish, the roles would reverse and rebalancing would be applied to replicas, while primary is already write lock-free).
Curious, contractor :)
F1 cars are race cars. Do you have an equivalent propulsion technology that can compete at F1 race tracks over F1 race distances at F1 race times?
I think that's fairly typical for people who aren't used breaking down images into their constituent parts. In the language of computer vision, it would be like saying that our visual cortexes don't need to know how to segment a face into detailed descriptions of eyes, a nose, a mouth, etc., in the same way as it is necessary to be able to segment a wolf from a forest scene.

But it can also be trained. See, e.g., Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain by Betty Edwards.
Nobody is asking you to actually delete the information. I suppose that with a proper design it should be possible to mark an account as inactive, make the associated profile data as inaccessible (if it's accessible via the web, for instance), and, most importantly, stop requiring this account when using the app.

Putting PII or UGC into immutable storage is poor design, unfortunately, both users and laws want this information destroyable.
One possible way could be extracting the product type marking codes / marking information from a large collection of data sheets.
Nice webapp! One small improvement that would make it more usable for me would be not to limit titles to a single line on the homepage - it would be a more smooth experience if I could read the full title before clicking it. Thank you.

I've recently started using CDK (with Typescript) on a new project and find it to be great, much more so than Terraform.
1984 is often cited as "it's not supposed to be a manual!" book when referring to current events, but I think that title should more properly go to Snow Crash these days.

"MetaCops Unlimited is the official peacekeeping force of White Columns, and also of The Mews at Windsor Heights, The Heights at Bear Run, Cinnamon Grove, and The Farms of Cloverdelle. They also enforce traffic regulations on all highways and byways operated by Fairlanes, Inc. A few different FOQNEs also use them: Caymans Plus and The Alps, for example. ... MetaCops’ main competitor, WorldBeat Security, handles all roads belonging to Cruiseways, plus has worldwide contracts with Dixie Traditionals, Pickett’s Plantation, Rainbow Heights (check it out — two apartheid Burbclaves and one for black suits), Meadowvale on the [insert name of river] and Brickyard Station. WorldBeat is smaller than MetaCops, handles more upscale contracts, supposedly has a bigger espionage arm — though if that’s what people want, they just talk to an account rep at the Central Intelligence Corporation. And then there’s The Enforcers — but they cost a lot and don’t take well to supervision. It is rumored that, under their uniforms, they wear T-shirts bearing the unofficial Enforcer coat of arms: a fist holding a nightstick, emblazoned with the words SUE ME."
I'm just thinking purely of the distribution. Imagine you had 3 points and a scale of low to high, where low is always the lowest data-point, and high is always the highest data-point:

Low <---------------> High
P1 p2 p3

Here p2 is the middle class, and you're saying that p2 moved to be closer to p3? Like say:

Low <---------------> High
P1 p2 p3

I would find that very surprising to be honest.
You should try that logic out come tax day, see how that goes.
The C in IaC stands for Code, and code is best written in proper programming languages. Both CF and Terraform are greatly limited by their use of yaml and hcl. Tools like AWS CDK and Pulumi, especially when used with a typed language like TS, are the future of IaC.
You can have equivalent cyberattacks on power stations and EV charging networks.
Some context would be awesome. Is anybody here privy to the events surrounding this apology?
I don't really view mine as a rebuttal or takedown either.

I'm simply offering what I think is a compelling reason for them to not include instructions in this guide to the important remedy that you describe, i.e. quitting. Citing the fact that the "Just quit" advice tired shibboleth is sort of a broadside against our profession in general, not your comment in particular. I did think about including a disclaimer about this, but decided not to.

It's quite possible that you and other commenters think it's not compelling; let me know why!
That does put it into perspective, thanks. To be clear though I meant CO2 used as gas in (for example) food processing, rather than somehow converting it back into other carbon forms and ultimately carbohydrates in the foods themselves.
I’ve started using Pulumi, which I understand is basically the same, except multi cloud/service.

> If you can't sit still with your own thoughts for 60 seconds without spiraling, then you shouldn't even be remotely near social media.

Not exactly disagreeing with you here, but neither is meditation necessarily better. Therapy is probably the best thing, but social media is "free." And, note that I'm not in favor of social media, merely explaining the cost-benefit analysis that people in this hole use. Reasoning from your high horse will result in different cost-benefit analysis, which won't make any sense to the people whose lives you might like to improve.

So my original comment was correct, and downvoted ...
Probably the same as anywhere. From [0]:

> Menu prices vary from each McDonald’s location, so it’s a little difficult to say exactly how much an American would pay for a Big Mac while visiting Denmark. Anecdotally speaking, we checked menu prices via meal-delivery services (UberEats for the United States and JustEat for Denmark) to see how much this popular burger costs in their respective countries. At a McDonald’s location in Copenhagen, for example, this burger cost 30.00 kr (about $4.73). At a McDonald’s location in Tulsa, Oklahoma, a Big Mac costs $4.82.

> This single example lines up with the Big Mac Index, an interactive tool from the Economist that compares Big Mac prices around the world. According to the Big Mac Index, “a Big Mac costs DKr30.00 in Denmark and US$5.66 in the United States.” When adjusted for GDP, the Economist found that “a Big Mac costs 13% less in Denmark (US$4.90) than in the United States (US$5.66) at market exchange rates.”

don't do it until you know you have to

If you wait until you have to, then isn't it too late to plan and test your solution? So you suffer from degraded performance and/or outages while you rush out a solution.
Main use case of Terraform is not portability. Have fun porting your SQS queue, DynamoDB table or VPC config to GCP or Azure equivalents. It won't look like similar at all except the resource name. However, If you are only running containers and virtual machines, sure you can benefit from portability

Cloudformation lags features so bad that you end up hacks or Lambda functions with custom resources. DynamoDB Global tables took 4/5 years to be available in Cloudformation.

I've also seen wrongly constructed Cloudformation deleting critical databases, hanging (often), times out, rollback hanging not succesful, so it's not always rainbows & sunshine there either. Also I don't like Terraform for its usage of excessive state files, handling state files with DynamoDB locks, having them on S3.

I won't deny the good features of it like being managed is a huge plus, but it's so slow and lagging behind, and it's YAML is so verbose an has stack size limits, it's always a workaround with Cloudformation. My company uses it by abstraction for internal PaaS and deployment automation and it takes a lot for trivial changes to complete.

So in short, neither is perfect, but for me Terraform is easier to use, easier to debug, and faster, and features don't lag nearly as CF. Those are good enough reasons to avoid Cloudformation for me. I also don't like CDK because it's too verbose and its still CF, and I would rather generate Terraform JSONs/HCLs myself if I need more logic either.

Terraform also helps when you need to configure multiple stacks i.e for a service you can have a module that reflects your organizational best practices, a Fargate service for runnning container, automatic Datadog dashboards, cloudwatch alarms connected to Opsgenie/Pagerduty etc.
I'm confused why the correct course of action isn't to revert the commit, ask the author to re-open the PR for comment, and follow the process. Why the tortious apology?
the problem here is that it wasn't reverse-engineered, in the cleanroom sense of the term. there were multiple references in the codebase to "not simply copy and paste the code from the IDA decompiler", so the legality gets a bit more dubious.

as for why take2 wants to waste their time on this 15+ year old game, i have absolutely no idea. i highly doubt they can sell it any more to their target demographic of retro gamers, who've likely already bought it for ps2, steam and mobile...
It's not supposed to be especially tricky. Yes, as soon as you realise that the horn is a bucket with a very deep section that is narrower than the assumed thickness of a coat of paint, the surprise dissipates.

I believe the point of the exercise is an introduction to curves with infinite length but finite area under them, in order to expand one's intuition about such objects, which is then transferable to other examples like space-filling curves.
This is great news.
