Honestly my suggestion is to get rid of all social media. How many hours to master a new skill are wasted away with pointless debates and conversations?

I have been off of social media for years now and I couldn’t go back.

Really, ask yourself if your conversations on social media are yielding something productive to society or if it’s just wasting time.

If you want social, get a group together and meet in person. Go do something.
1. You only pay for compute time you actaully get
2. Any stateless process such as web servers are ideal for spots
3. Also k8s nodes are very good to run in spot since pods are "natively" crash "resistant"
I agree, but in this case they already made a functional and faster( with some unrelated optimizations) in single thread. This is the real deal!
... and in case you messed up your console, typing `reset` followed by enter will fix it.
> Yes, because no network issue ever happened in the past with the "greybeards".

These issues, one might think, should have turned into tomes of extensive information on why they happened and how to avoid them, and become an integral part of showing the ropes to new sysadmins, or operation persons, you name them. It seems, however, that by and large the knowledge of the actual working systems does get irretrievably lost once some Kevin gets retired.

P. S. Would you be just as cavalier if lives were lost as a result of such incidents?
I think multiple releases per year would be even less interesting as there would be much less to look forward to. I think phones have almost approached their final form, a slab of glass. The next 'innovation' could be a really good, thin folding model without a noticeable crease.

I don't use my phone that much so I can't think of important, game-changing things I would like to see besides unrealistic battery-life expectations.
It is the "get rich quick scheme" part people don't like about NFT's, not the "shared delusion" part.

> how did the Guardian get Gavin as a source? Why would he want to reveal his secret to anyone?

I recently fired someone because they had 3 engineering jobs (all full time). He got fired from the other 2 jobs, too.

He found our company from “Who’s Hiring” on HN.

The CEOs of the other companies he was working for said to me on a number of occasions “this would be a great story for New York Times”.

Hmmm....

A bit like autonomous driving, sounds like the sort of thing that probably works beautifully well in places like the US and elsewhere with wide roads and predictable grid patterns.

I imagine this sort of thing would mark large swathes of Europe,Africa, Japan, India and all sorts of other places as "accident hot-spots" though.
I imagine you're correct that if a theoretical perfect duplicator existed, the physical art market would be destroyed, but only because there would be no way of authenticating the original. The original still has value if you could prove it, but nobody would know which one the original is.

Let's say this theoretical duplicator was perfect in every way EXCEPT you could tell it wasn't the original because the isotopic signatures didn't match. That is, for all intents and purposes, each duplicate is exactly the same but each instance encodes an unreproducible signature that can be used to identify it.

I postulate the original would still carry an enormous value relative to the exact duplicates.
One of the lesson that I believe is being learned is that general purpose programming languages for UIs make it difficult to do tooling, especially with dynamic typing.

This particular approach (.60) is not a general purpose programming language and it's strongly typed.

It's designed for the user interface, not for writing the rest of the program in it.

I feel this is rather different from the tcl/tk applications we used to see?

FINN.no | Software Engineer | Full-time | ONSITE / HYBRID | Oslo, Norway

FINN.no has a unique position as the leading digital marketplace in Norway - everyone has a relation to and story about FINN: either buying your first house, finding your dream job or selling your wedding dress. Every week, FINN torget has more than 2 million unique visitors.

Our high performing engineering unit of 180 + developers is a large part of the success story. We have spent the last 10 years going from a monolith to an asynchronous, event driven micro services architecture. Our infrastructure allows our developers to push new code to production more than 1800 times every week. We are now working in a hybrid office, where we mix our days at the home office and some together with the team at the office at Grensen 5-7 downtown in Oslo.

You will work with tools like Docker, Kubernetes, Prometheus, Kafka, Grafana and Consul. Most of our codebase is written in Java, Kotlin and Node.js, but we do also use other languages, like Haskell and Scala.

Better yet, another commenter [1] found that you can clobber the number of section header entries, as long as the size of a section header entry is 0. So, now the smallest size is two bytes shorter: 112 bytes for a full "Hello, world!", with an 8-byte "alignment" field to spare!

I'll need to update this article. The only annoying part will be scribbling over the hexdump output again.

There are plenty of NFT platforms that are not about getting rich quick yet no one talks about them because it doesn't fit their narrative. This leads me to believe that what I said is correct, rather than you said.
18% are still not "most", stop posting this untranslated passage and claiming it supports your statement. If anything, this proofs that 18% of finlands youth and 13% of its women have no idea how fission reactors work, since they essentially don't produce any carbon dioxide at all...

It had been proposed that this may be one way some of this tech gets adopted- purpose built and maintained rooms just for AR / VR / XR.

Pro: lots of people seem to think it is the only way

Con: lots of people seem to think it is the only way

Fact of the matter: running cloud infrastructures is as complicated, if not more complicated, than simply creating and hosting your own data center. The propaganda is thiiiick and those being told the cloud is not the only solution literally melt down when proven wrong. I've created server clusters, co-lo'ed them and maintained them through years, and ddos attacks and more - and I just figured it out, probably just like anyone working in the cloud. But, and this is a HUGE BUT, the monthoto-month expence of owning a cluster is merely the co-lo cabinet, for me that was $600 for a full cabinet. This is in contrast to the same setup at AWS is $96K per month. No brainer if you ask me.
Did he build his own 3D engine, or it's an old engine with new skin and storyline?
I haven't played league in years and barely even watch it anymore (watching worlds, but didn't even bother watching NA LCS championship).

Part of the reason I stopped playing was I realized ranked wasn't competitive, it was just a different mode. If riot actually considered it competitive, autofill wouldn't be a thing.

But to your point, you're absolutely correct. There's an old video about a well known streamer (forget his name) ranting about where the toxicity in league comes from.

And he draws the following analogy.

If you're in a game of pickup basketball and someone on your team decides to start scoring for the opponent, you can simply walk away. If you do that in league you get punished for it so you're forced to stay in a game you don't want to be in.

The long and short of it is that LoL players have very little control over both their teammates, and their willingness to play with someone who decides to be an asshole.

Riot could solve a large % of the toxicity in league, but they choose not to.
Crypto attracts blind love/hate ("shilling"/"FUD"). Very few express rational views about it in public. Our social fabric is not used to everyone having skin in the game.

I predict this will calm down once the Ponzi-era fades out (whenever central banks finally decide to tapper), but it's still always going to be a problem which we need to find solutions to.

How to Get over Fear of Disappointing Others (FODO)
In my experience the worst contributor is mobile games. Daily login reward, daily quests / tasks, etc. They divert your attention because you feared to miss those rewards. It's less effective for adult but very harmful to teens.

However I found that missing one day of it and not spending any cash to those games helps with getting out of it.

I think that would be a commercial decision? Why introduce something way better right away? I expect the M-series macs to be milked just like they milked the iPhone chips. M1, M1s, M2, M2s, etc. Small incremental changes so they can keep selling.

I Apple would introduce a radically faster M2(+much faster GPU) and >32Gb ram, with decent connectivity options, I would probably not buy another mac for 12 years again. I already use my macs a long time.
Legos are just freaking neat. I don't know how else to put it.
> Yes the popular use case right now of expensive art and "selling a JPG" is rather silly...

There's nothing silly about "selling a JPG". Billions of dollars are spent annually on digital copies of photos. People pay for (high) resolution and rights.

Selling an NFT is usually "selling an NFT", not even "selling a JPG". Most of the time the NFT just points to a piece of digital media accessible to anyone, and it conveys no rights of ownership or use of that digital media.

I was just discussing Bitcoin 'investing' with a client last week and one of his engineers overheard us and told us a friend of his (another fresh Lebanese immigrant) maxes out his credit cards on the first of the month buying bitcoin, then sells it on the last day of the month and pays off the credit card and pockets the difference. I just...had no response to that. It seemed so obviously dangerous and irresponsible that I couldn't believe a grown adult would do that.

AND THEN he told me about another friend who does the same thing--but with the tuition/living money his family scrapes together and sends him from Lebanon. To me, that was not only stupid, it was a staggering betrayal in trust. Imagine your entire family scrimping and scraping to get money together to send you to college in the US and then you just casually betting it on Bitcoin.
Uhm... I really wonder why

So what is a person to do, when the system cheats them? Seems reasonable to cheat back.
> But that it's actually done and used tells a lot (of negatives) about healthcare tech.

Do you mean that in the sense that healthcare tech has been slow to move in terms of making advanced bionics available to the public that needs them? My general impression would make me agree, although bionic prosthetics have gotten way better in recent years. Simultaneously, it all seems like tech that could have been available decades prior.

I completely disagree with 2). I think surrender should be completely removed and the game should be played until the end, regardless of team balance.

It it almost impossible for me to find a game where the surrender request spam doesn't start after 30 seconds (in chat). As soon as a team mate does a couple of mistakes or s/he finds the other team stronger, s/he states the game "unwinnable" and "a waste of time".

This in my opinion is a terrible attitude where people don't improve 1) by learning to push against the odds, 2) by only wanting to play against worse players.
I’m wondering, do you share this frustration with car manufacturers?

Each new car is incrementally a small upgrade, but accumulated over a few years, makes for a worthy improvement. Those incremental upgrades I don’t buy don’t make anything worse for me.

I'd love it if manufacturers could go back to try to make mobile phones smaller again, at least for those with smaller hands (like me). It's almost impossible to find a feature phone that I can use with one hand and reach everywhere with my thumb. Latest phone is a iPhone 12 Mini, but CarPlay is so horrible (and important for me) that I'm looking for a good Android phone again (Android Auto is miles ahead of CarPlay), with the same size and good performance. But it's really hard to find good ones.
Seems like the kind of inefficient system partially propped up by artificially cheap transportation costs.

A carbon tax levied on fossil fuels might change the economics of this. Or it might just accelerate the electrification of the reverse logistics chain. Either of which seems good.

The other piece is the cheap labor that makes this possible. Or maybe the problem is that the labor isn't cheap enough to be worth reprocessing things back into inventory? Even after reading I can't sort it out.
It's not just about the instrument because you can gamble with stocks, which in general have positive expectancy and positive sum. Day trading meme stocks is definitely gambling, so I would say it also has to do with behavior.

> Set the timelines and goals, and let the employee work however they want. If they deliver as agreed upon then what's the issue?

Ah, but timelines can be influenced by how quickly something can be delivered. Scrum does this and encourages this as well. How many tickets are allocated to a sprint is dependent on the team velocity. If an employer sees that you can do more in time interval X, then he’ll put more on your plate. Many employers abhor a time vacuum and will fill it to squeeze out the most value.

So one defense is to take your time. The more you bust your ass, the more you have on your plate. Another is to place strict limits on the time at work. Bust your ass all you want, but check out at time X every day.
I was the principal engineer of one of the top 5 global FR systems used by governments and NGOs world wide, and I quit last spring. As far as I know, they are not even trying to replace me with a person, but are trying to outsource development now. That's gonna be a cluster-fuck.

Apparently the mini versions of the iPhone sold poorly enough that they won't produce a mini version of the iPhone 14, and instead will push the SE as their small sized phone.

Cool project. When he talks about exploring 3D printing, I think there is someone ahead of him.

A couple of weeks ago I listened to a talk by Clifford Agius (https://twitter.com/CliffordAgius) who is 3d printing App-enabled bionic arms. Pretty incredible stuff - I think he'd got startup costs <£1000 and per-arm costs around £5-600. ALl using open hardware/software.

Sadly there is literally nothing online I can find about it other than this post: https://www.cliffordagius.co.uk/post/findingand3dprintingaha...

Medieval peasants weren't told their place in life is a matter of personal responsibility (within reason), they were told the hereditary social hierarchy is divine will and can't be overcome. "Trading" is the ultimate example for the opposite, since it promises to directly translate "skill" into wealth.

Wealth inequality is an important factor but expecting everything to boil down to one simple factor is overly simplistic.

yes definitely, we really liked that feature in fullstory, also noticed it in some competitors too. We have it in our roadmap, though it's not until next year some point :( It's clearly something that will be super valuable to people though!
Alongside this, maybe set yourself up on calendly.com with some open time slots and tell people:

"I'm taking a break from social media. If you'd like to get in touch with me, email foo@bar.com or click on [my calendar link](https://calendly.com/) and pick a time for a phone call"

Will some people think you're odd for doing this? Yes. But it is better to miss out on 10 shallow connections and gain 1 deep one. Face the FOMO.

I think the core of this is safety and a selfishness requirement deep in each every one's brain.

Most want to feel they have their spot, that they matter, that they're relevant and that you can't put them out of the net.

The fiefdom-bigshot manager is just one dude who compensate that fear by over-leveraging the natural order in a group of people, most people won't seek that much dominance, but inside of them they have the same need. Things just balance out and most assholes will have their place at the top, the weaker or less favored will be below (all it takes is a diploma).

After a few months at public offices I've seen the social tissue at play. Most people don't do much, they come in their official spot, do the minimum to get by without causing hiccups to others. And they very often talk about how others are, and how they're perceived. As long as the metaphorical food comes regularly people will stay on this pattern.
The difference, I think, is that your car can still run on today's gas. The update cycle for modern electronics is planned obsolescence and therefore forces you to participate in the incremental updates. If you don't, eventually all your favorite software will stop working, especially if it is cloud connected.
