They’re aiming to reduce the cost/kg to orbit by 2 orders of magnitude. I imagine that that will open up a lot of opportunities that weren’t feasible before, so I wouldn’t rely too much on the current size of the launch market.
Mine too. I had one as a teenager and it was just wonderful to use.
I find this line of thinking incredibly bizarre. If PTO is important to the candidate, why should they waste their time spending hours interviewing only to find out that the work-life balance in this position isn't going to work for them? To you that's having their head up their ass? God that's strange to me. I'm sure glad I don't work for people who make sweeping judgements like that.

As someone else who's been observing Twitter's actions over the years, there's nothing that'll convince me that it'll be different this time.
You're forgetting the most important point:

c) There are several vaccines produced that DO provide lifetime or near lifetime immunity. Pfizer isn't making me get a new polio shot every year. If conspiracy theorists were to be believed, shouldn't we have an entire gamut of shots to take every fall instead of just the flu?

This looks like a content farm article with no substance.

> Other studies suggest that people who frequently “media multitask” (like listening to music while checking email or scrolling through social media while watching a movie) are more distracted and less able to focus their attention even when they’re performing only one task.

Compared to what? Music for me is usually a way of escaping the hell that can be open spaces.
This.

Sometimes it is perfectly fine to not lift every stone to see what is crawling underneath, and quite alright to let sleeping dogs lie. The operative word is "sometimes", and a professional counsellor might help define when that "sometime" strategy is best applied. It is not avoidance; it is strategic limiting of analysis.
Interesting. It might be true -- I don't know enough yet to comment on it. If that is the case, it's kind of unfortunate.
Is Covid-19 unique to other respiratory infections causing a severe cytokine storm which causes severe lung damage in some people before the immune system can figure out the correct antibody ???.

mRNA in cells are constantly degraded by nucleases. Half life is measured in hours. Not only that RNA itself is unstable at room temperature.
Like handing control back to the human, it depends on the timescale. Over longer periods, yes, obviously the only sane option is to stop. But if confidence in sensors or analysis suddenly drops, especially when the system is still under development and unknowns are expected, the response needs to be graceful rather than sudden.

This is reflected in their comment generally, but talks past the context of my comment. In the scenario I'm envisioning, most of the view is fine right up until say the last ten seconds, where the dynamic range of the camera is suddenly overloaded. That's not enough time to talk about stopping or handing off control, and slowing down isn't going to help with the automation having lost the lane. A human gets through the situation by making a plan ahead of time, including taking note of how a road curves and guessing that the lane will remain clear. Whereas I can imagine automation responding in a horribly wrong way.
Adapter Pattern vs. Bridge Pattern
The index reads more like a list of 'Programming languages that university students search for on Google'.

VB in the top 10? Matlab, R and Fortran so high?

Kotlin and Dart in the 30's? And JS not top 3?
I would get a nice journal, a nice pen, an old book written by some philosopher, and a good pair of hiking boots.

Go out an explore nature, read, think, and write. That is what I would do with 6 days of freedom.
Aye I rushed the comment, no worries
True. Another thing that I keep thinking is that currently the first stages of the rockets are not reusable. Even if they have to build a new starship per flight, they can just reuse the boosters and still be miles ahead of anyone else, with a Saturn V sized rocket ready to launch.

Plus they can expand the real state in the ISS much cheaper by just docking and leaving it there.
ah yes, adaptation to science when I do it, goal post moving when others do it.

maybe those other people adapted to new facts coming in such as side effects of the vaccine and already contracting covid and decided not to get it.

From the report in your link...

> During December 14, 2020–August 14, 2021, full vaccination with COVID-19 vaccines was 80% effective in preventing RT-PCR–confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection

Full vax is only 80% effective? This is quite a bit lower than what the news has been reporting, in the mid-to-high 90's
This is the book I learned from in the 90s:
https://www.amazon.com/Developing-32-Bit-Operating-System-Cd...

It's basically "Writing an Operating System from Scratch for Dummies".

I actually wrote my own graphical x86 OS starting from the code in there.
Maybe we should all ask this question in our interviews so we can avoid these shitty teams that way!
You're right; this is dishonest argumentation, designed to discredit their target in front of a higher level of authority.

Here's a story: Two railroad engineers are tasked with blasting an opening along the edge of a cliff. The senior engineer says it will take thirty sticks of dynamite. The junior engineer says it will take ten sticks of dynamite. They debate it for hours without coming to agreement, and ultimately it's the senior engineer's decision to make. So the junior engineer goes to management and says, "This guy doesn't get it. He goes on and on about geology, and pressure waves, and cliffs he has blasted before, and his precious sticks of dynamite. But me, I understand that the purpose of blasting this cliff is to build this railroad on time, and that's why I say we should use ten sticks of dynamite." So management orders the senior engineer to use ten sticks of dynamite.

The blast fails, construction falls behind, and management is plagued with worries. Management ruminates on the failed blast and the two engineers, and remembers that the junior engineer was concerned about the construction schedule. "That guy had his head in the right place. He understands what I'm going through! If I had somebody like that in charge, I wouldn't have these troubles. The senior engineer is just concerned about his goddamned rocks and dynamite. No wonder we're not on schedule." So management fires the senior engineer and promotes the junior engineer to replace him.

It's an important lesson for developers to consider. If somebody runs to Mom, you have to go with them and make your case. If they are allowed to frame the problem for management, it won't matter whose technical judgment is vindicated in the end; management will remember them as the one who had their priorities straight.

Diverting your attention doesn't help long-term. Read about EMDR, it may be related to this video game concept. If so, the effectiveness will depend on the game as well as how much you engage the traumatic thoughts during play.
Actually, I already knew your story. You haven’t made an effort to hide it. It seems as if you actually make a point of highlighting it.

I’d gently suggest that taking a combative stance may play well in The Yard, but is less effective, out here. Those of us that face societal challenges are best-served by playing nice. That’s one of the hardest lessons that folks in reentry need to learn.

I sincerely wish you the best. There are folks that want you to succeed, and we may not all be who you expect.

I certainly apologize for throwing shade. I have become quite cynical, over the years, and regularly encounter folks that look at people like us as “easy marks,” because society doesn’t really have our back.
For glue jobs you probably don’t need something more. However step functions is the norm for creating workflows in aws nowadays.
Is that really a thing?

Apparently so[0].

Wow. Just another example that there are some really stupid people out there.

World class chess players in tournaments often walk around during the game and do so on their own turn or go to the bar and have a drink.

“I think better when I walk.” is a commonly heard statement; many research scientists when thinking about a problem also take a walk outside and find that thinking while walking improves it.

But in soft science research without any real definitions it's of course quite easy to not incorporate such things because terms have no meaning and then say that “research proves it” while all it did is prove things about their ad hoc definition of “multitasking” which is far removed from the real world.
The other reason, btw, is because I don't want to be responsible for taking "destructive" action. If a user misunderstands a feature and doesn't know why they don't see their friend in their newsfeed anymore, I don't want to be responsible for that. I will never unlike, never unfriend, never unfollow, etc. I won't even trigger positive actions automatically. This is the kind of thing Facebook really cracks down on, and because it's very fragile, a change in their API could cause the wrong behavior from a browser extension. It's not worth it.
Kind of. Python definitely has more legacy cruft, but also has an npm equivalent PEP 582 with a working example, pdm. I don't see how JS is better unless you include web browsers as distribution. It's mostly people thinking bare `pip install` is a reasonable way to add various applications to your system that complain about python packaging.

I'm not saying Python packaging doesn't suck, it definitely does. But so does JS and the mess that the npm ecosystem is makes working with it it much more painful.
>Only a small amount of innovation is coming out of Asia compared to the US

This is a meaningless claim, and also the fact that you are hardly exposed to the innovation that Asia brings to the table, only US. (Note what website you are writing this on)
How does that relate to mobile game traffic?
As part of this, there is no inherent reason to believe that 5-20k rocket rides/interplanetary transit wouldn't rapidly become a major lifestyle/luxury item similar to jetset lifestyles of the 50s/60s.

There are a large number of interesting economic opportunities from resource extraction to supersized science experiments and energy production once we're out of the gravity well at reasonable economics.
This line of reasoning goes to a dark place. You can't know what makes sense in someone else's life. A heroin addict self-medicating unbearable pain is, to me, a tragic figure deserving help. A morbidly obese person may be suffering from an undiagnosed underlying condition that makes diet and exercise impossible. A smoker may need the stress release.

Should we refuse to treat any injury sustained by the Wright brothers during their experimental flights? Surely that's highly dangerous highly voluntary stuff. Should we refuse to rescue hikers if they become lost or trapped? Should the coast guard never help recreational sailors? Should we have to submit to a proscribed diet exactly to prove we deserve medical care? Should we forgo treatment for tendonitis if it can be shown we ignored known warnings about typing too much?

To me, people are precious, and they lead messy, imperfect lives. They make bad decisions and good ones, and decisions I don't understand. They'll take risks I never would in pursuit of goals I don't see as valuable. Sometimes, when you really get to know someone, a decision that didn't make sense from a distance really starts to. And sometimes people are being self-destructive and there's no more to the story, and sometimes it's something they go through and come out the other side of.

My conviction is to love and help them no matter what.

Sometimes I can't, and that's a different thing, but deciding that someone doesn't deserve help is a level of judgement I don't want and can't justify. Maybe what they were doing really was worth it. I don't know. Even if it's not, it's essential to let people try.

I would find someone else trying to exert this degree of control over my life - requiring me to comply with their particular take on what risks were worth it - suffocating and unbearable. I am sure others feel the same way, about control in areas in which I wouldn't mind it because I happen to already be normal. So I am against it on principle. People need to be people, in all their messy glory. And we should help them if we can, regardless of how they got there. I think the only case in which I would act differently was if I thought letting someone suffer natural consequences was for their best - and I would have to be incredibly sure.

Leaving people to a fatal condition when we could help them is incomprehensible and inhumane to me, and represents a dangerous level of escalating disagreement into dehumanization.
At Grove we make extensive use of KubernetesPodOperator[0]. This allows to both encapsulate the job in containers (k8s pods), and also specify the resources we need for each DAG.

geez sorry mobile typos/corrections messed up last sentence:

The .com space is still king but having more options that aren't polluted like the last round of new TLDs like .biz got, or various ccTLD hacks like .io and whatever that were popular for awhile but risky and expensive, is good.
I would caution against applying an EQ curve to headphones without review beforehand. If EQ includes large boosts (which the example image and table shows) that can easily introduce clipping distortion if applied linearly without appropriate headroom adjustments.

Additionally, depending on transducer performance large bass boosts may simply increase transducer distortion in the bass frequency. Some headphones respond well to EQ, and others not so much.

I am not opposed to EQ, but it should be applied judiciously, and at least partially by ear. I don't believe trying to exactly match a target curve will necessarily provide good results compared to a more judicious approach.
It's the time wasted. Look at a guy merging 30 conflicts in text mode for an hour :D

Ditto Firefox. I'd use it a lot more. Right now, only for YouTube.

Also, I hope Orion has hooks needed for uBlock. (Preparse hook?)

For whatever reason, Safari + 1Blocker doesn't filter YouTube's ads.

I'll use fulltime which ever browser that has both keychain and blocks youtube ads.
The free market is voluntary exchange without aggression (initiation of violence)–that's the "free" part. Far from being created by government, the free market is utterly incompatible with the claim to "legitimate" initiation of violence, which is the defining characteristic of any government and how it enforces its restrictions and regulations. You can have a market economy with a government, but it won't be a free market.

People are perfectly capable of trading with each other on a voluntary basis without requiring any restrictions or regulations or any other form of violence. And if violence does occur people are perfectly entitled to respond in self-defense without depending on any government to intervene.
Working a full time job with family and hobbies is incredibly time consuming. I'm not going to squeeze in 6-10 hours of interviews for a company before I ask an important questions about company culture, PTO, benefits, salary etc. I'll ask the questions I find important in the first interview, if it isn't a good fit I just saved me hours of time interviewing at a company I don't want to work at - and I just saved hours of interviewing an employee they don't want to have.
In Detroit, much of tech is dominated by the automotive industry’s needs and culture. It’s nice to see some cross-pollinating of skills.
The good thing about "no one on $site is an extremist" is that there's a pretty clear way to disprove it: find one specimen.

https://patriots.win/p/13zg9agFHB/instead-of-eliminating-hun... promotes some myth about "the government wanting to eliminate 1e6 to 1e9 american workers" and proposes to "eliminate politicians" instead.

Comments by the OP in that thread clarify the direction this is supposed to take, responding to "The swamp in one picture" with "One Drone Strike".

Textbook extremism. (edit to add: or, as hunterb123 asserts, an edge lord. Since I don't know the site or user but hunterb123 apparently does, I'll take them by their word.)

Korean and Japanese agendas are a bit smaller than A5, you might prefer the slightly smaller size.

If cash is not an issue, Smythson's.
So no examples, then?
One thing I've learned in programming as well as life is that Sources of Truth are deeply tied to individual perspectives.
Yeah. I think smaller companies and companies where you have some prior relationship or are willing to go contract to hire with are much more likely to allow this as well.
Airplanes that break down quickly are great for business, if you're an aircraft manufacturer.

Wait, no it doesn't work that way.
It depends on what other tools you are currently using for ETL (or want to use). One example is that we used Spark so we would use the Spark submit operator to submit jobs to clusters. You can also use the K8s Pod operator if you want to utilize containers for your compute.

There are a lot of options. We were adopters before AWS hosted airflow was a thing, so I don't have any experiencing running AWS hosted Airflow.

I haven't looked recently to see if some of the challenges we faced early on are solved now, but most of them stemmed from how DAG updates were handled: changing the start date on a DAG would break you DAG forever until you go update the database by hand. Things like this are(/were?) super painful and could get worse with a managed solution.
I think your original response came off as a bit defensive and combative, as did this one. Not a good look if you're trying to garner support, especially since the person has experience in this realm and it would've been good to acknowledge different experiences

Desal gets tricky quickly. Already at current scales, the brine discharged back into the ocean causes dead zones.
The one thing I've learned in software/computers: The more I learn, the less I know.

To survive in this field, one has to accept the fact that everything he/she's worked so hard to learn and master is gonna be replaced by something new in a few years. Don't fight it. Embrace it.

Let's be clear about what G&T programs mean in NYC. There is a heavier workload and more intensive academic focus but not really so much in terms of constructivist learning, child autonomy etc... That why we skipped it. To be blunt, I wanted my kids to have a more interesting classroom experience and not waste evenings stuck doing homework when they were little. My bet/assessment was that they would be smart enough to more than catch up later on when the workload ramps in a challenging middle school. So far it looks like I was right.

BTW - not all public school in NYC is tough. You have to remember the scale of NYC. Within it are insanely great schools, a lot of mediocre schools, and too many horror shows - much like the public school system in any US state.
Fraud does not automatically make it a Ponzi, and no custodial service will have sufficient USD on-hand at all times to cover everyone withdrawing their funds.

The specific claim that was made by GP, and the claim that I see bandied around, is that Tether is a Ponzi scheme.

Tether doesn't appear to share any characteristics with a Ponzi scheme, which is why I am puzzled to see people so adament it is one.

The most important characteristic (IMO) is that there is no promise of a return. $100 of Tether will only ever be worth $100 maximum.

If anthing, Tether is basically operating as an unregulated bank. You're not calling banks Ponzis are you?
Again I'm just confused as to why you're mad about this when you haven't even googled anything. Why are you putting the burden on me when you are the one complaining they don't exist while spending 0 effort to see if there are any?

I'm 1000% positive that there's heaps of research on this, just google "study on male retirees"
Man you can wrap that up with the good ol'conspiracy theory what if it was big pharma that MADE the virus and were sitting on this vaccine?!

What you're saying is the same as saying that some US weapon manufacturer cashed in big whenever the US went to war - how the hell did they pull that off, right?
> if it were a proper vaccine

That's moving goal posts. There won't be a 100.00% vaccine at any time.
risk cost analysis. if you have enough protection already, why add more at the risk of a potential side effect, that's up to the individual.

why not exercise, why not inject yourself with x, why not do this or that. why don't you just get in the train.

why not force everyone to not be fat while we're at it. we're already forcing people to show their papers, why not force everyone to have a vaccine for every disease? why not just keep everyone in a jail cell so they can't be harmed.

It's probably because the social robot is unusual/different/fun for the children. In the future, if everything is done by robot, then you'll see a study which claims "a visit from a social human improves hospitalized children's outlook"
It's a mistake to think echo chambers are a phenomenon which only take place on the political extremes. Reddit itself is an echo chamber of tepid liberal orthodoxy and American exceptionalism, moderated by a former member of the Atlantic Council. A fish doesn't recognize the water it swims in.

Redditors might call a place like Hexbear an echo chamber for instance, but it wasn't the members of Hexbear who chose to isolate themselves. Reddit made that decision by banning them.
> Playing videogames is another drug with which to escape reality.

"Escaping reality" is as old as humanity, I don't see why we need to think of it as a drug, or even a negative thing. Are books drugs? movies? plays? stories told around a fire? Video games are just the latest (really awesome) iteration of that.

Obviously there are some disclaimers. Some games are designed like a drug, or like gambling, and some people are more susceptible to addiction. But I think in general, we need to stop feeling guitly about taking part in something that we enjoy.
> the average of 2-3% to simply cash a check is still egregious and to me

That's roughly the same as an out-of-network ATM fee or a credit card transaction fee.
> I doubt a median games programmer would take 10x the length of time that it would take any other games programmer. It just seems implausible, and I don't know why people want to defend it.

Then why did all those thousands of other game programmers fail at creating a decent 3d game, before Doom was released? It's not like Carmack was the only one trying.
