Indeed, public institutions of learning have different tuition rates depending on a student's residency status. Rates for out of county/state individuals can be 50% more (or even higher) than local residents, so there aren't too many instances of non-residents attending community college; there aren't really any benefits to graduating from one CC versus another, so why pay more to get a degree that is indistinguishable from a cheaper one? They're all the same as far as any employers or society are concerned, there's no prestige or social status associated with graduating from CC, so there isn't much of an incentive for fraud. You maybe could argue that it is a viable vector for election fraud if they could be used as IDs, but I think the rise in non-resident enrollment around elections would be evidence of this, yet this phenomenon isn't observed. And even if that were an issue, Republican-controlled legislatures that just passed sweeping election reforms could have corrected it, but they chose not to.

Private institutions have a flat tuition rate (although if you are an international student they will verify that you have the financial capability to pay full tuition, since as a non-resident you wouldn't qualify for federal aid, and their tuition rates are set anticipating that you will qualify for federal aid). When there is actual money involved, you can be damn sure that processes are in place to verify you are paying the correct rate. As always when real dollars are at stake, the process is vetted, inspected, and verified at multiple levels. The proof of residence for my local community college was not dissimilar from the DMV. People want to get paid what they're owed.

But again, if there are any concerns about the stringency of this process, they could have been resolved via recently enacted legislation. But they weren't, and that may have been an intentional omission.

Look, I'll agree that student IDs are not up to par with other forms of IDs in terms of the information printed on the actual card, and that maybe some of the processes should be standardized across the state. Just because my local CC is good with these things and has sensible protocols doesn't mean all CCs strive to achieve that standard. There are a lot of CC and state schools out there. But the fact that an entire party has made securing the vote their raison d'être, yet steadfastly refuses to consider students valid voting constituents is strikingly indicative of a bad faith effort.
This is, again, the view that the institution is always right, an outmoded and discredited viewpoint.

No.

When someone says "(a substance) has a (very large) half-life" it is typically an attempt to make the substance sound more dangerous, when in general a longer half-life makes the material less dangerous, not more.
nice, it only took two comments before we got to the "my paycheck very big, union very bad, why I join union? tomorrow will be like today, I will always be big paycheck"
It is still useful for you to know. That "overhead" often does very little to advance your career or even just advance _you_ professionally. And until you measure how much overhead you're incurring, you wouldn't even know.

Much like how people didn't know they're spending 4+ hours on Instagram and YouTube every day until Apple started cataloging and surfacing phone usage. When I saw my own usage I was horrified, and I have cut it down significantly since then, and closed FB and Instagram accounts entirely.

To translate that into the professional domain, there may be some optional bullshit activities you participate in solely because you don't see their cost. You'd be able to identify them and cut down on your participation, possibly either improving your career situation, or improving work/life balance, or both.

There was a time when I worked at a BigCo where there was so much bullshit during the day, I only could do work from home in the evenings. So I worked ~14 hours a day for years - 8 hours spent on bullshit, then another 6 at home on actual work. That wasn't fun at all.
I think so too. My brilliantly satirical boss at the time, called the team to attention and said something to the effect of:

(holding up the magazine cover) "I'd like to thank you for creating X magazine's product of the year!"

>he paused for a moment<

"Which is awarded to the highest ad-spend of the magazine for the year."

Absolute comedy, and a wonderfully satirical human being.

On the first point we agree. I'd add that you shouldn't actually use your analytical engine when doing that, but rather your intuition. Because if you actually start measuring and evaluating your progress you'll come up against entropy, which is an opposing law built into the rules of the universe. So it's like working against gravity. You do need to push, but don't be all about just that.

On the second point we strongly disagree.

Molnupiravir is not a benign medication. There are serious concerns about mutagenic risks. Until more long-term safety studies are completed it certainly shouldn't be prescribed as a routine prophylactic for most patients who are at low risk anyway.

> For example my employer doesn’t provide a work Github account… but while I have the option to use my personal one, I can also sign up for a separate one.

Apologizing for being the Well Actually Guy, but GitHub's terms of service include the line "One person or legal entity may maintain no more than one free Account". If your employer doesn't provide a work account for you or use Enterprise GitHub, then technically you can only have both a personal and a work account if one of them is paid. My suspicion is that GitHub doesn't go out of their way to enforce this, but it's there.

As far as Apple IDs go, there's absolutely nothing that prevents you from having multiple ones, though, no. I think I've had work Apple IDs in the past. You can also have separate Apple Store accounts and Apple ID accounts (which I do, although that's something of an accident of history in my case). While I've logged into my Apple Store account on a company-owned device so I could use some of my personal applications (ones that would be appropriate for work, for the record), I would absolutely not want to log into my personal Apple ID -- the one that accesses my personal mail, calendar, iCloud Drive, etc. -- on a company-owned device.

You are right. It's hardly surprising. Most revolutions fail. Yet as outsiders we can appreciate the try, cheer on, or maybe even help (like the French did?) Maybe one day that help will be returned.
Was this a journal entry inadvertently made public? It lacks any sense rigor, which is vital to making a point compelling. He’s merely jumping from one conclusion to the next, trusting that his audience is of like mind and devoid critical thought. How is this appeal in any way superior to the orthodoxy he’s so quick to condemn? Judging by this piece, it’s obvious that he’s hardly qualified to be a spokesperson for “progress”

> Van Rossum didn't rule out the possibility of Python 4.0 entirely, though suggested this would likely only happen in the event of major changes to compatibility with C. "I could imagine that at some point we are forced to abandon certain binary or API compatibility for C extensions… If there was a significant incompatibility with C extensions without changing the language itself and if we were to be able to get rid of the GIL [global interpreter lock]; if one or both of those events were to happen, we probably would be forced to call it 4.0 because of the compatibility issues at the C extension level," he said.

In fact there are still some people who go through life like this in developed countries today.

> The entire Python community was in pain over Python 3 for 10 years

Sorry, but that's fiction. Yes, lots of projects (still the minority) simply didn't upgrade, but it's not because they tried and failed. It's because they never prioritized it.

> Here's a pain story about a 2 to 3 migration though:

Consistent with my claim:

> Probably less than 1% of projects had serious issues with the migration. We just hear of a few popular ones that had some pain and assume that was representative.
> Even if she was acting improperly w.r.t. company proprietary information I'd have thought that competent PR folk would know to never fire someone in a position like this because there's no way the company can look good in the aftermath.

This is something I do wonder about. We've seen a fair number of cases recently of tech companies firing people who've publicly agitated for changes in the company culture and always claiming, "Oh, no, it's because they were leaking confidential information, it has nothing to do with them being activists." And, okay, I guess that's possible in each and every case, but as you said, not a good look.

How many is the numerator? That's all I'm asking; do you even know? There is a pretty big difference between 15 and 200. Which of those is more accurate? Is it even either of those?

What good is 'estimating' (read: bullshiting) another denominator if I don't even know what the numerator is?
That's a good and noble purpose.

How has that been going for you, if you don't mind me asking? Got something to share? Something to show?

I'd love to find out more of what you've done with it.
A relatively recent large-scale case from the U.S. that comes to mind is the internment of Japanese-Americans. I'm not sure if I can point to a specific Constitutional amendment that it violated (4th amendment on seizing a person without probable cause? Probably 9th amendment, that there are are additional rights not enumerated), but I think most declarations of rights cover a right to liberty unless one is charged with a crime or other strictly limited exceptions, and it seems clear that the Japanese internment violated that.

Interestingly enough, the Supreme Court of the time seems to have upheld part of what was done to the Japanese-Americans[1]. "In effect, the two rulings held that, while the eviction of American citizens in the name of military necessity was legal, the subsequent incarceration was not"[2]. About the first ruling, Wiki says: "Chief Justice John Roberts explicitly repudiated the Korematsu decision in his majority opinion in the 2018 case of Trump v. Hawaii. The case is often cited as one of the worst Supreme Court decisions of all time."

We haven't gotten as far as large-scale violations in the U.S. of a right to not be killed by official government policy (death penalty notwithstanding). (Also notwithstanding the FDA delaying the introduction of lifesaving drugs.) It has certainly happened in other countries, though. In the small scale, the U.S. government does sometimes assassinate individuals, and seems not too squeamish about killing whoever else is in the blast radius (some may protest that those people aren't citizens). I would admit it's pretty unlikely they'll go that far on this particular right (in the absence of a revolution), but for the majority of rights, it seems there will be circumstances where politicians will plead "emergency" as a reason to violate them, and often enough will get their way.

As much as anything, people need bank accounts to receive payments to be part of a modern economy.

Many retirees would fall well into the "people without money" category, but they still need to get their Social Security payment direct deposited.

Many employers, especially in low-wage "people without money" sectors, aggressively push extortionate-fee prepaid-debit products on their workers if they can't accept a conventional direct deposit.

Putting everyone on a single network, at the very least for this use case, reduces cost and complexity. Can you imagine the guaranteed confusion and error in a system where 40% of your employer's payroll was paid over ACH, 25% via crypto transfers split among a dozen blockchains, and the rest via paper cheques or prepaid debit cards mailed out?

Yes, it's not the only possible solution to a payments ecosystem, but it's the closest thing to a universal one we have. People understand how it works and there are well-established risk and mitigation models for it.

This is part of the reason I'm a bit hesitant about things like the "self banking" paradigm via cryptocurrency. Even once we solve the nuts-and-bolts problems of risk mitigation and seamless user experiences, it's likely to be a sharded market for the short term. I can easily imagine incurring fees and delays because my money is in a Dogecoin wallet but the water company only wants Monero to settle their bill.

I wish I could go back in time and tell a younger version of myself the steps needed to work at a FAANG.

I unfortunately never had the right guidance to get there and hopefully my kids one day will. I can’t complain as things worked out —- but still.

I see these employee issues pop up from time to time and I guess I just don’t understand it. I’m not trying to be cruel to the people speaking out.

Just I truly don’t understand it. Ungodly money. Ungodly benefits. Working interesting problems everyday. Changing the world. Impacting millions of lives. The best of some of the best teams.

No job is perfect and whatever beef exists at Apple right now is 1000x better than some of the trash jobs out there and what some jobs are like in the real universe. It’s not to say Apple should go without ridicule or improvement.

Just an outsider perspective who sees Lannisters killing each other in their perfect castle.

Not advocating anything. Just hard to imagine walking into Apple and having a tough time or not enjoying it. I suffered much worse for much less in my life.

Cheers to everyone trying to improve things though.

It’s the work rules that make a lot of American unions distasteful to workers. A lot of people just don’t want to work in a place where people routinely say stuff like, “that’s not my job, union rules.”

If your dataset is small enough or you have plenty of resources, and you don’t need any fancy customizabilty and multitenancy (always searching only a subset of all documents, filtered by tenant ID) then Typesense.
Otherwise if Typesense can’t fit the index in your RAM it will not work, if you need to filter every search it will become slow.
If you need lots of customizability of how you index your documents and how you search, what you prioritize in the search, facets, nothing beats Elastic here. But it will need plenty of resources or otherwise it will be slow.
If you need fast but absolutely non customizable search that can live off a lot less than 1GB of RAM (less than 100MBs even) then you might have some success with https://github.com/valeriansaliou/sonic
If you’re constrained on resources but sonic is too limiting, then finally you might have some success with Manticore search. It’s featureful but using it with different languages can be a lot of work (I’m not sure why they don’t ship a distribution with all language plugins enabled and configured), the docs will be good enough to get you started. It can live off a few hundred MBs of RAM with large indexes, and will still be faster than Elastic.
