I'll plug my current favorite, Jupiter Hell. It's nethack'ish in that it's turn based, and knowledge from previous games enhances player skills for future games (i.e. your skills improve in playing the game, versus some rogue-lites where grinding gets you in-game enhancements to the character/avatar). A key component is also the audio, where creatures make distinctly different noises and is also indicative of spacial locality.

> So cherry picking stories while 99% of COVID19 infected people have no issue surviving it?

It's completely false that 99% of infectees have no issue. Around 99% don't die, but a heck of a lot of the survivors have long term issues, 37% according to this: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/sep/28/covid-37-of-pe...

Even if they emerge from the illness with zero issues, quite a few have undergone a horrible ordeal, been hospitalized and had invasive treatments, etc. Those intense treatments are part of what has kept the death rate so low. In places where the epidemic overwhelmed the hospitals (like Italy early on), the death rate was as high as 10%. Covid and unvaccinated people are also responsible for the deaths of many non-infected people. E.g. if someone has a heart attack but can't get care because the hospitals are full, they die. It's hard to tell exactly how often that happens but the excess death rate (all-cause mortality above the baseline) is quite a lot higher than the pure Covid case fatality numbers. So don't spew nonsense.

Maybe he could try to post another comment instead of the same one to pinpoint what's triggering this. There is a separate % sign, maybe a few words together causing filters to act.

His method is not proving anything because he keeps trying the same thing.
I can't imagine how I would handle such an awful ordeal as his, but I do think his ego and his finding the value of his life entirely in his own limited sense of potential worldly accomplishments only made his suffering all the worse. I found his attitude to be even demonic at times. I cannot pass judgment on the guy himself, but the attitude portrayed in the writing is very spiritually warped and dark.
Theory 1: HN commentators are irrational and could make more money.

Theory 2: HN commentators correctly identify that a union would make them less money.

The age old clash of collectivists and individualists. I personally think strong union activity is more likely to move tech clusters for America to China than it is to make software engineers more money. Software engineers already seem to be making a lot of money, it is unclear that asking for more will work, even if done loudly.
People are afraid of nuclear power plants. You think they'd ever allow nuclear space flight?

Think of the 0.05% chance of launch failure, all that radioactive shit spread in the air, alongside all the other dangerous shit we already put there willingly!
Last time I worked in infosec, it was quite slow, depending on what you're doing. AFAIK you're either monitoring things, in which case it only gets interesting when there is an incident, and/or you're doing projects, but they are slow moving because they involve approvals, physical hardware, etc. If you're writing code all day I guarantee you'll feel drained.
It's like the webpage version of the S8 GoT battle. No photons were harmed in the making of this product, cause none were involved.
No, a lot of people have no college debt at all, but for that you need to be strong academically to get academic scholarships. It's like in Europe only 1/3 go to university, so that's about the number that could go with little or no debt in the U.S. But the rest can also go if they don't get a scholarship and pay their own way.

And for a lot of people, they are strong academically to get a full ride to a less prestigious school but only get a partial scholarship to a more prestigious school, and then choose to go to the more famous school but then take on debt. Sometimes a lot of debt. So there are many people who go to the most prestigious school no matter the cost. I think that attitude is starting to change now.

There are also affordable state schools you can go to rather than more expensive private schools.

I went all the way to an advanced degree without any loans or personal spending (but I had to purchase books), just using scholarships and financial aid. But I didn't go to the most famous schools. In my high school I was in the top 10% in terms of both scores and grades, so that was enough to get admitted to most schools but not to get a full scholarship. So I got tuition waivers for the local state university and lived with my parents, and then for grad school I got full tuition waiver as well as a TA job that paid enough to live (barely).

But I know many other people who had the same high school grades and SAT scores as I did but went to Dartmouth or other places and took on huge debt. I didn't even consider those schools as I wasn't willing to take on any debt. I always went to the best school that was free.

If you don't go to university, then you have to find your own way in life. You can be very successful if you get a trade, but there is no good system of trade schools -- you have to find the trade yourself, and finance it yourself. Unlike the network of financial aid and scholarship for universities, there is nothing like that for trade schools. The US has no trade school system because it offends our sensibilities which say that everyone should go to college and that tracking is wrong. For the same reason, every high school styles itself as "college prep" but then they have to dumb down the curriculum to allow students to pass. Thus we have no gymnasium system where you are learning useful skills before (or instead of) college prep.

So it's really hard for people who are not college graduates because there is no equivalent support system to train them. The US has terrible problems with lack of skilled workers -- both a shortage of technical students in universitites and a shortage of machinists, carpenters, plumbers, electricians, etc. People in these fields find their own way. Many figure it out -- they meet someone who talks to them and shows them some options, or they have a friend who is an electrician and they find a school and borrow some money to attend, etc. But it's really random and it's easy to fall through the gaps and just take a series of unskilled retail jobs.

That can’t be true.
Because otherwise how would they sell their favourite guest language?

It is like Google uses their pseudo Java dialect when selling Kotlin features, instead of comparing it with proper Java.
I'd put them on the CV and add a line saying many of these are for SEO. No need to actually try to master them. Find more interesting things to learn that can enrich your software engineer mind.
The engineers know full well that this stuff is bullshit, but they aren't making a living unless they do what they are told. The problem is our society and the shareholders that demand maximal profit every quarter that result in the executives/board of companies aligning themselves to these anti-consumer tactics as it is the easiest way to ensure a consistent revenue base.
I wish I could get into Heat Signature. I bought a copy, but somehow it's languishing in time spent compared to previous games like FTL and Into the Breach, I feel like it's a bit more frenetic in action compared to these (noted that it's a bit unfair to compare with Into the Breach and Jupiter Hell, which are turn-based)

Is there something I'm missing about the game play?
Bitcoin mining hasnt used GPUs in a long time. Its worse - it uses fully custom ASICs that still take up fab time and raw materials, but when they are no longer economical to run, they cant be reused for anything else.
Gimp is no where near to be an alternative to photoshop. I understand its an open source and free software, but I would rather prefer someone taking money and polishing the software for human usage.
Affinity suite is much more recommendable.
It offers a lifetime license and is actually a polished and alternate software with most of the feature parity.
I'm fairly certain that your Macbook is actually hibernating, and not merely suspending. This seems to be the case with my 2015 Macbook.

Actually, as far as I understand it's a mixture like modern sleep in Windows. Like modern sleep, the system also wakes up to fetch e-mail, calendar events, etc. But in contrast to Windows, it actually works well and is very restrictive (only certain whitelisted apps can update). Apple calls it Power Nap:

https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/what-is-power-nap-m...

Which means when I close the laptop, it suspends for 30 minutes. If I open before 30 minutes, it resumes right away. If not, it hibernates. The battery will last for practically days if you configure it this way

I know, but hibernate on Linux has many issues. First of all, properly restoring hardware state is even more of a hit and miss than S3 sleep (where e.g. the trackpad would often not come up correctly).

Hibernate on Linux also has all kinds of security issues. Hibernate currently does not work with Secure Boot + kernel_lockdown [1]. Hibernate with randomly-keyed encrypted swap requires all kinds of workarounds.

I am not willing to forgo security mechanisms that have been supported for some time on other systems.

That said, we used to have phone books with everyone’s name, number (and address?) distributed to everyone in town. I guess people are just bigger assholes when they’re not within throwing distance?
Just like with Rust, C++, and C, you have a language subset for the kernel, and then enjoy the full language on userspace.

The more information the better, thing is platforms want to sell their content first and foremost. This removal of user input was pushed by the business so they could push content regardless of personal interest.

I know, I know, it doesn't really matter, but for the very curious among you, "corretto" might refer to "Caffè Corretto", an Italian flavor of espresso coffee with alcohol added to it.

The origin of "corretto" in that sense are really interesting [0].

> ... is it really unreasonable of me to expect people to also be able to make rational assessments of overall danger? Do you really think we're complete slaves to our psychological biases?

I think that asking a bunch of "chimps with logic" to be rational actors when they're being fomented by propaganda/half-truths/conspiracy theories is unreasonable. At the very least, I believe it will lead to your disappointment.

In my mind, this applies to the people that are hyper pro and hyper against getting vaccinated for covid.
We have fairly large variation in index size, from ~100MB through to 30-50GB, and probably larger still in future. In the order of thousands of indexes as well.

Application level sharding/merging for more consistent index size is on the list of things to do, but given the complexity of that it’s a “not before we really need to” kind of task haha.

Yes there are very good reasons not to put 10000 nukes on a ship and try to launch it. But it would be extremely cool to have manned missions to the gas giants and to send probes to nearby stars. I don't see how that will be possible without nuclear propulsion.

All untrue. Children suffer from COVID 19 and in the United States account for over 1% of COVID 19 related hospitalizations. It's extremely rare that they die from it, but that's not what you wrote.

More to the OP's point regarding vaccination protecting everybody, vaccination reduces the odds children will spread the virus if they catch it.

I'm not sure if the meaning of "stupid" has drifted over time, but it feels like this essay plays too much with language. It sounds like he's trying to redefine stupidity rather than clarify it.

I used to work at Symantec in 1996 and they were using the exact same sort of figures in marketing materials. An employee thought they looked odd and asked upper management during an all-hands why they were used, and someone responded that the small heads and long limbs made the bodies look tall, which inspires confidence in the viewer.
This just looks like an eventual consistency thing, rather than something particularly malicious?

Last.FM could have been great. Back in 2005 (17 years ago!!) it had a veritable encyclopedia of artists, albums and tracks, a decent recommendations system, "neighborhoods" that matched you with other users who listened to similar artists (and they even told you what you had in common so you other ignore users whose 12 year old also likes the Barbie song). You could add specific users to a 'Friends' section. You could look at their music libraries. Last.FM invented scrobbling (AFAIK)... Once upon a time my wife and I both paid them a monthly subscription for ad-free music. You couldn't play whatever you liked, because of the licensing model - instead you could pick a "radio station" based on your neighborhood, a specific neighbor, your likes, a band, a genre or even your whole library (ie: everything you ever listened to). It was really great for discovering new music, had a great interface, and had built-in love/ban buttons. Right when the world was about to lose its shit over the inferior Spotify, Last.FM absolutely fucked up. Instead of running a stable infrastructure and licensing music for on-demand streaming like Spotify did, they mismanaged their infrastructure, making music borderline unplayable. They had site outages. They broke their API with backward-incompatible changes. Once they proved beyond doubt that they couldn't run the streaming infrastructure, they gave up trying simply added a Spotify play button. And there went the only reason to give Last.FM your money, because now you had to pay Spotify anyway. Pathetic. A wasted opportunity. If I could have the Last.FM from a decade and a half ago with on-demand music and stable infrastructure I'd take it over any other service available right now.
Agreed. I bet they were looking into Justice Democrats as soon as they started. I just wonder how serious they were taking it before one of their candidates actually won. It certainly seems like as AOC got more popular, she seems to have gotten co-opted. I followed her extremely closely in the the run up to her win. Her personality has completely changed. Part of this I attribute to her party constantly being on her neck but there might be something else at play.
Just like every county in the US can have different laws. An example might be sales tax rates in Florida.

Maybe the top poster should say that the map of North America should be dotted with micro-states like the USA (maybe even like Canada, I don't know)

I listen to some background noise during the night when sleeping (rain, wind, that kind of stuff)... now, any mix, recommendation and whatnot consists of "soothing noise; relaxing Japanese traditional music; sounds of the beach" etc.
Not really. This isn't like cures like. This is triggering a biological system to do something. There is a buildup of a substance that he body could break down but doesn't. So you do something to trigger the system into action. This is more like hydrating someone in order to trigger their kidneys to work harder and thereby flush out some other toxin.
Imgur does this, too. Actually pretty smart from the platform's PoV. Just delete or "shadow" comments (or whatever you call it, when you can see your comments but no one else can) that contain certain words.

Portugal, Germany and Switzerland for example.

The respective order validates that Software/Informatics Engineering degrees are actually engineering.

Additionally, for certain legal activities like signing contracts with liability, putting the Eng. so-and-so is only legally binding if the title was validated via the traditional admission exam.

Also you can be sued if lied about having a title, although since our prime minister got away with it, and legal system takes ages, probably no one would bother unless some big loss comes to be.

And if you so wish, can also get the ring.

Its akin to not driving your car in the redline constantly - sure you can do it, but its going to reduce engine life.

Its the same with batteries, you keep them at 100% constantly they will wear out. Its just a limitation of the technology.

Some devices now try and use "machine learning" to determine max charge, for example iphones will maintain a medium charge throughout the night then do a final top up charge to reach 100% just before you wake up.

There was no "Well Ackshually" in my reply.

I just pointed out that for everything you would need to build custom on Nomad there exists off-the-shelf components that will plug right into k8s. There is no way this would save money or development time, which was my main contention with your assertions.

You basically mischaracterized everything I said and then missed the entire point.

I don't disagree that there are some cases where Nomad would be superior. Off the top of my head if I wanted to build a modern rendering farm and I knew I wouldn't want to use the cluster for anything else then I would consider it over the HPC toolkits I have previously used for that (RIP Grid Engine) or Mesos which used to be king of that space.

The problem is these are incredibly niche cases and for 99.99% of companies they are better off swimming with the flow.

This is what I mean by "k8s has won". It's not that other things won't continue to exist and be created but most of them won't survive unless they commercialise within a niche or find a sufficiently large user that is willing to do the vast majority of the development (eg. Netflix Titan).

It's not a zero sum game but it's damn close. See here the corpses of Docker Swarm, Convox, Flynn ( :( ), original Deis, arguably ECS (it's a zombie at this point let's be honest).

The tide really turned when Azure and AWS were basically forced into offering managed k8s. In AWS case they also had to made deep modifications to VPC and IAM to properly support it. These investments wouldn't have been made unless forced which lends credence to the weight k8s has in the ecosystem. (Worth mentioning there is no hosted Nomad I'm aware of, their enterprise offering is install + support)

k8s is becoming the POSIX of distributed scheduling. The API you use to run diverse workloads over large numbers of machines that is relatively portable between companies. Right now there is still some vendor nonsense going on but over time it will be smoothed out.

The vast majority of distributed applications are going to be built targeting k8s as their runtime API. We can already see this happening but it will only increase over time.

To summarize I think it's fair to say things like "Nomad can sometimes be good if conditions x/y/z are met" but I think it's very dishonest to consider it as a viable competitor to k8s in the general case for most users because of the reasons outlined above.
>...Minimum wage increase do not increase unemployment. We have almost a century of data. It's always trumpeted by the wealthy, but never happens.

Small changes in the minimum wage will have minimal changes in short term total unemployment - less productive workers will have a harder time competing as more desirable workers will now compete with them and longer term there will be a bigger incentive to switch to automation to remove workers.

Larger increases in the minimum wage though will obviously effect total unemployment as the law of supply of demand still holds. As one example, the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office estimated a national $15 minimum would cause employment to be reduced by 1.4 million workers.
