I guess I have to disagree Paul, even though of course you're the one with practical experience in this specific niche since I didn't write a DAW from scratch.

Since you compared it to a web browser maybe it's instructive to remember that a big reason Rust had initial traction was that Mozilla had tried, and failed more than once to make key improvements to some of the browser's thorniest concurrent code in C++ but using Rust made this practical at last.

C++ is horrible and I think you're under-estimating just how much difference that makes in this scenario for something like Ardour.

Because the real estate sector is like 30-40 trillion. 2007 was the result of a massive infusion of debt by unsophisticated retail "investors" who bid prices up far higher than even their rental value. Lending standards dont allow this today.

If big institutional money is going to cause a frenzy it would need to be irrational money managers that somehow clear their purchases through a panel and none of them say anything. Some point out that blackrock is on the other side of this zillow unloading but they have trillions in assets and only 60 billion in real estate. This is the largest money manager in the world and thats all the exposure they have.

I'm confused - are you disputing their findings? They use official Dept. of Education data. And a 2019 peer-reviewed paper gives broadly similar numbers [1]:

on average, both Black and Latinx total per pupil expenditures exceed White total per pupil expenditures by $229.53 and $126.15, respectively. This is anticipated due to the strong relationship between race and poverty (Reardon & Owens, 2014) and the increased federal funding targeted toward stu- dents in districts with concentrated poverty (Cascio & Reber, 2013). - https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/23328584198724...

Why would this not be convincing on the narrow question of average education spending per pupil?
Prescription meth use is much different than recreational use. Dosages are way larger, and so is method of administration. This makes enormous difference.

Consider dextrometorphan. This is a common over the counter cough medication. It can also be used recreationally - but the recreational dose is 30 times the therapeutic dose. Amphetamine is similar: methheads are not swallowing a single pill of Adderall, like medical users are.

Rebut to 1: I watch tv to relax. It doesn't talk back. It's my semi-mute friend. I don't even look at it most of the time. I seem to need mindless taking to drown out my negative thoughts. When the tv is not on, I have my AM radio.

I've never tried VR. Games always put me in a weird mood. I once got 300 Halo 3's at a bankruptcy sale. I couldn't get out of the first room. I tried a few more games, and just didn't get it.

Using Chromium is a bit like buying chicken meat from a farmer because it gives you that nice feeling of "local fare" and "doing good"; meanwhile, the farmer sources that meat from the same gigantic poultry business that supplies all supermarkets, with chickens kept in squalid conditions.
Are you talking about Microsoft Teams? Because I hate Microsoft but Teams blows Slack out of the water by a country mile in terms of usability, reliability, and resource usage. I can't get a basic voice call working in Slack for longer than 45 seconds Teams conversely has smooth, reliable video delivery.

All in all I think Discord is better than either of them but I'll take Teams over Slack any day.

Alluded to in the article, but Opendoor doesn’t appear to share Zillow’s problems.
I agree with your disagreement. I've been in involved in web dev for 30 years. There is more moving parts, but IMO they better align with the actual complexity. This is likely only true for professional, production grade apps where the full range of concerns are in play such as security, maintenance, testing, migrations, scaling, etc. Deploying a simple app is more complex. For the apps I built I don't have to plan server purchases months out. I don't have to coordinate multiple apps on one machine. I don't have to worry about swapping out LBs and Firewalls as a nightmare connectivity issue. I don't have to scale file storage regularly. I can scale up service DBs as needed. All of that reduces total complexity.

Beyond that, in some instances even for simple apps there is less complexity once you know the technology. That's not complexity though. That's a buffet of useful options.

Good architecture decision are even more critical today.
Maybe I misunderstand, but if a product breaks regularly under "fragile and bespoke" testing, won't it break just as often, and probably more often, under robust and comprehensive testing? And if the product fails tests, who better to "just" troubleshoot the problems than the developers? (Perhaps you mean things break after nominal testing and subsequent release, but that's just shifting the time when the issues are detected -- the product still has the issues either way. And if the issues will adversely and/or significantly affect the customer, I imagine one's employer would prefer that you set aside your non-troubleshooting valuable time and fix the issues.)

Don't I still need to know shell programming for Ansible? Or at least know all the systems I want to manage with it inside out?

Yes, I need to learn tools at some point. But as I see it, I am not a system administrator of anything but my own network of 8 infrastructure hosts. The effort required to recreate this with ansible (and I don't think ansible can actually idempotently handle ALL of these devices, not without serious limitations) seems far greater than maintaining a few scripts and keeping backups. Also, I already know bash (unlike ansible).

> Ansible is a straight upgrade to most shells because of idempotency alone

So, as I said, I know nothing about Ansible. But idempotency implies that Ansible always starts from nothing and builds from there. Does this mean that every time I want to change my server I have to wait 15 minutes for it to re-install the distro and re-configure everything? Do I have to keep my state on a different server? I don't see how this can't be achieved with just as much hassle with a script?

Surely I misunderstand this. But if I did, then surely it's not THAT idempotent.

> Anyone who has any familiarity at all with UNIXy systems can learn Ansible from zero well enough in a day or two for it to start becoming truly useful

My problem with this is that every time I've looked into Ansible, it didn't look like a day of work. It looked like a week of work converting my entire infrastructure to it, for very little benefit, in addition to having to change the way I do a lot of things to fit the Ansible blessed method of doing them. It may take a day to learn Ansible but it probably takes even more time than that to learn it to a standard where I would consider the knowledge reliable. It would require making mistakes and lots of practice before I felt like I could quickly recover from any mistake I could make using it as well as avoid those mistakes. Not just that, but because of my nonstandard setup I would likely have to spend extra time learning Ansible well enough that I can actually replicate my nontrivial setup.

Despite the ethics behind the business, I thought Zillow Offers was going to be hugely successful. My guess is a few factors go into why it might not have been successful:

1. ZO overpaid for homes, offering over asking price for most homes
2. During the pandemic, housing inventory/supply (the number of houses for sale) tanked. This hurt Zillow's primary business, which thrives on the velocity of the market
3. ZO continued to purchase homes during the pandemic, overpaying, and adding huge liabilities
4. The inevitability of increasing interest rates could (probably will) cause housing market fluctuations that leave Zillow-owned homes in the red for awhile

Zillow was leveraging their primary business to make Zillow Offers work. Unfortunately, a really bad year makes it difficult to justify the huge liability.

I've found that `brew pin` is becoming a necessity for things not breaking on my machines. after Postgres breakage that cost me a half day of work, and fish breakage that cost me a bunch of personal time, I try to pin things that have the high probability of breaking due to an update.

not optimal, but sadly necessary.

Meth is already taxed in much of the United States via this convoluted drug tax stamp program. There's this whole fascinating process where their goal is to obviously get you on tax evasion, like Capone. But to make it legal, they have to make it possible for you to pay your taxes, without getting caught. So there's this whole anonymous no questions asked process where you can drop sacks of cash for your mandatory narcotics tax stamps. Some of the designs are truly amazing. [1]

All drugs were decriminalized in Portugal in 2001 and saw Portugal saw their usage remain roughly constant. Their negative health and societal effects, however, plummeted - from among the worst in the EU to among the best in the EU. [2]

I think legalization is a pretty obvious next step. Anybody who wants smack now can get smack, right now. Being illegal isn't making it any less accessible. I strongly believe that if it were legal, there wouldn't exactly be a flood of new drug users lining up at the dispensary to give crystal meth and black tar heroin a go. However not making them available is causing crime, sickness, violence and fueling a drug war that's hurting everyone.

But what if you reduce the range in the example? Would you rather work with an asshole who is mildly better than you are, or someone agreeable who is mildly worse?

Given a collaborative environment, I'll always choose agreeable/worse. Because with the disagreeable/better collaborator, I suddenly have a barrier between potential productivity and output: I have to co-ordinate with the asshole.
It is somewhat meant to be snarky, but then again the original quote is exceedingly naive.

It describes very well the phenomenon but gives advice that I can only see ever working at BigCo. Where your team is huge and if you screw up there's another one down the hall.

The truth is most places that exhibit this level of helplessness often include a small team of 5 or 6, each with plenty of tenure. With no other lateral teams to move to.

Now you want the new guy to walk up to the boss and tell him that his drinking buddies for the past decade are the reason things are falling apart and he's an ineffective manager for not noticing it. You can play with the wording but that's the message.

In the real world we have political factors like seniority, favoritism, nepotism, tenure, and nevermind external factors.

In the real world the boss doesn't actually care if the team is working well or not. He only cares that the perception of the team is positive. If the new guy threatens the perception, he's gotta go. Nobody cares if it gets fixed. If nobody knows it's broken there's no need to fix it.

Let's have less articles like this one where we basically fire ourselves ostensibly for virtue signaling and more articles about how to socially engineer your way to the fucking top. Because let's face it, that's what it actually takes.
Even though it has a climbing specific slant, the podcast at https://www.climbingnutrition.com/ covers all the bases with a science led approach. The episodes can be frustrating long and rambling (I offered my services to edit down, but they declined), but the content is still incredibly valuable.
This is true. Someone has to be the architecture person who can separate the actual complexity created by your requirements as they exist from manufactured complexity created by using architecture techniques that don't follow from requirements.
You're overcomplicating this. The fundamentals of nutrition are simple, and are as follows in decreasing priority order:

1. Calories: too few and you die, too many and you gain weight, get sick and die early.

2. Macronutrients: too few and you will get sick and possibly die, too much doesn't matter so much as long as calories are under control.

3. Micronutrients: too few and you will live, you just might be a bit sickly (brittle bones, scurvy, anemia, etc). Too much of some micronutrients can be toxic, but most you'll just excrete in various ways.

That's it for the basics. There are some recommendations around fiber and other things to lower your risk of various age-related diseases, but if you just keep your calories in the right range and ensure you get the necessary macronutrients and micronutrients, then you know everything you'll likely ever need to know, barring any medical conditions that require specific diets.
The SSD being the thing that takes down a computer seems like a theoretical concern (for most users). They certainly typically have longer lifespans than spinning drives. I wouldn’t be too surprised if my parents’ hermetically sealed fanless MacBook Air is still sipping power a decade from now.

And that’s to say nothing of the extra materials that would be required to house a socket for a separate SSD board which 90% of users would never avail themselves of.

They have for sure increased the recycling rate massively since 2010. Lisa Jackson went from head of the EPA to Apple in 2013, and that’s also when they started to really focus on device longevity, and fostering the pass your old phone down to your kids or up to your parents plus trade-in and refurbish models.
The plural of anecdotes is not data, but in my relatively small experience, I've had two SSDs die. And when they die, there's usually no warning.

One was a windows box with a generic Kingston 480GB.

The other was in a 2014 MacBook Air.

In both cases, both completely dead with no data recovery possible.

I used to use Nginx for a long while, but for the past several years I’ve been using Caddy instead and it’s been serving me well. Caddy, like Nginx, is open source.

What originally made me switch is how dead simple it was to set up Caddy to use Let’s Encrypt with renewal via DNS records using the Caddy Cloudflare plugin. It’s basically just download Caddy with the plugin (or build from source if you prefer), generate token for domain in Cloudflare, paste token into Caddy config file and never worry about it again.

The reason that DNS based Let’s Encrypt renewal is superior is that you can even use it on servers that are not serving the site to the Internet. And aside from that just how simple, reliable and free of worry the setup is with Caddy and the Caddy Cloudflare plugin.

Maybe you mean Adderall? I've read methamphetamine is sometimes prescribed, but my understanding is it's extremely rare.

There is a real problem with some drugs that become physically addictive. A person can fairly easily drink alcohol or take adderall regularly without suffering physical withdrawals. I'm not so sure this would be the case with heroin, for instance. I don't think in those instances the drugs were demonized to quell social movements, but because they were substances that too easily consumed people's lives.
You raise a good point, and I was incorrect. In my original comment I was thinking of any of us, not muggles.

Come to think of it, I once even set it up at a job in 2009. We needed to digest huge amounts of flat files from clients with little tech savvy. I put FTP on a server, put that behind OpenVPN, then sent the customers a pre-configured OpenVPN client installer. Never broke.

Tangentially, all this mention of FTP being used by banks and financial institutions is inspiring some choice nmap scans to run... ;)
