This sounds like our shop. One big fat monorepo, every merge to master must satisfy a checkbuild.

Speed is a big deal for us too. The entire thing can be built from clean in ~3 minutes by GH action workers. We buy our developers threadripper workstations, so local rebuild times of the solution during typical development iterations are closer to 15 seconds. We are much more interested in developer ergonomics than with simulating prod environment.

I genuinely believe having fast builds is the most important part of the developer experience. Somewhere around a build taking more than 30 seconds is when bad things start to happen to my engagement loop. If I can keep it under 30, I can stay in flow the whole time. Other developers on the team have expressed similar tolerances.
Demurrage and Detention Charges Explained
Demurrage and Detention charges can accrue up to 20 times the value of the container itself. A high, that makes these charges important to understand. Learn more about the difference between demurrage and detention here. And try the xChange demurrage and detention calculator on your next shipment.

You run into demurrage and detention charges when you’re running late with your containers. From the day you exceed your number of free days, demurrage and detention charges will be added. They will every day until you deliver the containers back to the allocated destination. Such high per diem charges might be “unjust and unreasonable” for freight forwarders. But for shipping lines, they ensure the efficient use of their containers. Ten years ago, these fines were rare. Today they are quite common and can easily exceed $100 per container per day.

That’s one of the most frustrating aspects of moving cargo. And must sometimes feel like terminals and carriers are intentionally looking for ways to inflate your bills.

In principle, demurrage and detention have two main purposes: Compensating the shipping line for the use of its container. As well as working as an incentive for the merchant to return an empty container and have a fast turnaround.

Already an expert on demurrage and detention charges? Get the quick lowdown of how xChange can help you avoid these expensive fees right here.

What Demurrage & Detention is

Demurrage & Detention come out to play when a carrier or shipping line’s containers aren’t delivered back within the allowed free days. The free days determine the number of days a shipper can use the container for free. If the free time is exceeded, the user has to pay a demurrage and detention charge. These charges are usually calculated per day.

Demurrage charges always relate to the time a container is inside a terminal. On the other hand, detention is a charge for extended use of the container until it’s returned empty to the shipping line.

Demurrage charges depend on how much time a container is in port after arrival. If the full container isn’t moved out of the terminal to be unpacked within the free days, demurrage comes into play.

Importing containers

For conventional shipping, the free days are often somewhere between 3-5 days after the container has been discharged from the vessel. Charges are applied for storage of the container until the container is picked up and gated from the terminal. Usually, demurrage must be paid before the cargo can be picked up from the port.

Detention refers to the time outside the port. If the consignee holds on to the carrier’s container beyond the allowed free days, detention will be imposed. In other words, a detention charge is applied when the container has been picked up, but not returned to the carrier. Detention charges are an attempt to decrease the container’s turnaround time and make shipping more efficient.
Absolutely not. 90% of these doses were provided by Serum Institute, a private company, that wholly managed the relationship with AstraZeneca since the early days of the pandemic, even when the government was asking citizens to perform rituals to ward off the pandemic.

The government not only played a largely passive role, but they did not even assist where they could. Before the second wave, Serum Institute was appealing for financial help to boost production capacity. But the government completely neglected that, choosing to prop up covaxin, their homegrown vaccine instead.

Even as the government was petitioning WHO to open up vaccine IPs, they refused to open up the IP for their own covaxin to domestic manufacturers, instead ensuring exclusive access to a company that is very "close" to the party.

What saved India in the end was a strong pharma/health industry enabling local manufacturing and ready distribution network for the vaccine. Serum Institute was already the world's largest vaccine manufacturer and was in an amazing position to take up the Oxford vaccine. They jumped at it with all hands and today account for 90% of all doses administered. It's a shame that the rest of the industry doesn't have a bigger share, they certainly have the capability. India is like top 3 in the world in pharma manufacturing. Many companies were ready and willing to switch to vaccine manufacturing but were tied up in bureaucracy with no support from the government.

Political will was the need of the hour, the government had none and it certainly shows in the outcome. Bad leaders always seem to enjoy something of a stockholm syndrome where they are forgiven and admired for everything once the dust settles. People forget how bad the second wave was, and how bad the decisions of the government leading into it. If not for Serum Institute and the strength of the pharma industry, India would have easily gone down the path of Brazil for the kind of shithousery the government pulled.

The family being the only remaining non-transactional long-term social construct in moden society, it is not surprising that both marriage and child bearing are anachronistic and have been falling for the past decades. Eventually, a combination of surrogate childbirth (and perhaps evetually 'true' SF-style in-vitro bottle babies) and professional parenting, either private or State-sponsored, will be the primary way to raise the next generations of producers and consumers.
It is sometimes tiring how prophetic British SF writers of the 1930's were.
I agree that the government does various other things to shield specific companies from liability in specific circumstances, but these are not inherent in the concept of a limited liability corporation under discussion.

> I think so, unless you consider to keep enforcing lockdowns, travel restrictions, or a Children-of-the-corn-light type of scenario to be ethically better.

Well, a lot of places that have high vaccination rates still have domestic restrictions, or are considering bringing them back as they deal with new surges in COVID cases. International travel restrictions are still significant, even for fully vaccinated travelers.

See: Israel, Singapore, UK, Belgium to name a few

The vaccines do appear to offer good protection against hospitalization and death, which is great, but let's be honest: they haven't been anywhere near the panacea hoped for, and a lot of the pseudo-promises made around a return to normalcy haven't been kept. Instead, the goal posts keep changing.

The dear leader refused to fund free vaccines for people under 40. Instead, states were pitted against each other to procure doses It wasn't until the Supreme Court got involved that the government backtracked. So much for being decisive.

Because you, know he's funding them personally, not us taxpayers. Even the goddamn vaccination certificate has his smug face plastered on it. So, let's not pretend he's not taking credit for it.

This is exactly how I feel. Even having gone through a more practical IT education, most of the folks in my class were really really bad (and not very excited about programming besides). That combined with folks that do a little bootcamp and then end up doing some sort of frontend development is honestly just depressing. It's hard enough to help managers understand good vs bad engineering, I don't want to do it every day for the people I work with too. Especially not knowing that a large percentage of them will never get any better.
> We don’t have a “healthcare is private” problem, we have a cost problem.

Isn't the problem actually the lack of any public healthcare service compounded by the extensive reliance on private health insurances, which completely eliminates any competition based on cost and actually puts pressure for end-user prices to grow?

The reason why healthcare costs in the US are extremely high is not due to quality at all, but because those selling services can get away with it.

For a number like 2 to exist, the implication is that there are two things in the universe that can be exactly equal.

I'm not convinced. You are defining the number 2 as a material cardinal, and then coupling the existence of the number 2 to the existence of two completely identical material objects. But why would the existence of those objects give rise to the existence of the number 2?

Can't I similarly define that the number 2 is a materialized ordinal, and simply count the revolutions of a moving object, and state that the number 2 is instantiated by observing the periodicity of a single material object?
I'm not sure. Intuitively I would think "phase angle" means "offset into the sine wave lookup table".

If you step through the lookup table with constant size steps, you would get a sine wave. If the steps are not constant size then you get a distorted sine wave. The "rate of change of the phase angle" would then be the step size.

The words for the orders of magnitude don't group by thousand like in English (*thousand, million, billion, and so on) but by thousand (hazaar), hundred thousand (lakh), ten million (crore), and I don't know what next.

So the comma separation reflects the words, as in English.

> 38,625

38 hazaar ... Vs. 38 thousand ...

> 13,38,625 vs. 1,338,625

13 lakh ... Vs. 1.3 million ...

> 1,00,13,38,625 vs. 1,001,338,625

100 crore Vs. 1.0 billion

That the beauty of it with python:

- if you want to treat paths like unicode strings, you can. Which is great for simple scripts where you don't want to deal with complexity. And 99% of the time, it's enough with modern OSes.

- if you want to threat path as bags of raw bytes, you can. Which is necessary to transparently copy and do not evaluate, as you said, for covering edge cases.

- if you need to actually deal with those as strings but don't want to loose data for edge cases, so a mix of the 2 above, you can use surrogate escapes

What happened to the global warming "pause"? The one that Nature devoted an entire edition of their journal to?

We went from significant consensus that a pause or at least slowdown happened to "there was no pause". It's now being "debunked" as a myth which is amazing because that means some climate scientists are actively "debunking" other ones.

And maybe someone can explain why we don't have a reliable way to measure the temperature change? Apparently the new models say there was no pause, but why is that model correct and the old one wrong?

3. result(t) = sin(t*4 + d modulator(t)/dt) = sin(t*4 + cos(t))

> Why are people with COVID antibodies from successful recovery forced to get vaccines?

"Successful recoveries" alone is not an indication that you are now immune to COVID-19 or able to handle a reinfection well. There are reported cases of reinfections, with the second COVID-19 infection being far more serious and even deadly.

Also, it has been observed that vaccination ensures a better antibody response to some variants than a prior infection.

https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7032e1.htm

Even though none of the current batch of vaccines ensure perfect immunity, they all do ensure that the immune response to subsequent infections is good enough to not even warrant any additional care beyond quarantine to avoid transmitting to anyone else.

Anyone can find answers to those questions with a quick Google search. What happened to "I do my own research"?

The way you (as well as most people) frame this, means there is no solution. If the world can't refrain from using more and more energy, then the world is doomed.

If we want to slow down global warming, we need to stop burning fossil fuel right now.

Hoping for a technical breakthrough of infinite "free" energy that would not only allow us to consume more, but also to do efficient carbon capture, is magical thinking.

It may happen! But it most probably won't, and we should be preparing for when it doesn't. The fact that we don't, and we keep waiting for a miracle that would be just around the corner, is pathetic.

As someone who is in the business of software, infrastructure and especially testing for now almost 20 years, i can underline the fact that people often still think of (automated) software testing as something that is not needed. "I tried it, it works, so let's merge it without automated testing." is one of the sentences i heard so many times in my work-life, but even more often i hear "But it worked, yesterday". What is your favorite quote about testing? One of mine is now definitely "testing code and automating things should require the same care and skill as working on your product" as stated by the article. I can fully stand behind that quote.

I don't think that prostitution will ever get destigmatized. This hasn't much to do with the media, and more to do with human nature. Men are usually wary of sexually promiscuous women, and women know that as well (which is why women "slut shame" other women to take them out of the competition). IIRC most prostitutes in Germany are foreign anyway, so even though the pay is high, most German women would prefer to do some other work :).
