When homework is not done, teacher sends the email. Or gave the kid black point and then the kid was unhappy about it and told me. If it did not, that teacher would also send mail, but after like 2-3 points within short period (don't know the exact rules).

The other option is to ask in the evening "have you done homework". One of my kids would never lie and other only rarely, so it worked.

To add to it, old system was not freedom. One feature of old "parents know only what kids tell them" system was that many parents learned about issues only when inevitable end of semester report/grades came. At that point, issues grew large. Even worst, parents were surprised and shocked, tended to react badly, punish the kid , yell, beat them etc. I remember reading about flux of kids running away each time reports come.
The lack of windows is not a required monetary tradeoff here. It is a deliberate ideological choice on the part of the donor. While I can't say for certain that every student's sleeping space could be given windows while keeping the same occupancy, your argument makes a false dichotomy.
Love HashiCorp, though not sure what to think about Sales&Marketing to R&D ratio, which is 2:1 (141kk vs 65kk in 2021). Maybe people who read S1s more often can tell if this a normal ratio? Seems pretty high to me.
I would be very happy if I could use Emacs’ text editing and text manipulation/navigation everywhere. Things like a real IDE with an Emacs editor. Or the IDE being controlled by Emacs. Or a desktop manager controlled by Emacs.

That Emacs lets you design a great user interface is exactly why some people want to “live in Emacs”. (Similar to how some misguided souls prefer to “live in the terminal”...)
I suppose that might be true, but I'm not sure how one would go about and prove a negative like that. Especially in the field of nutrition science which has famously alternated between calling coffee the Devil's Hot Bean Juice and the Second Coming. Current consensus appears to be, based on a 1.2 million person meta analysis that 3-5 cups per day reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease. [1] I suspect in reality there are just too many factors to do that.

There have been hundreds of crazy tech success stories in the last few years, but as someone who considers himself an engineer at heart, this one gives me the greatest amount of joy and optimism. Both founders are industry-wide leaders in their field and still treat writing code and solving complex technical problems as their primary job.
With the rise of professional gaming it's foolish to think you could beat anyone else in the world. Unless you're a professional gamer.

When it comes to those of us with a 9-5 job, there's usually no practical difference between facing off against people being paid to play a game vs people paying to be good in a game.
This is all information that the parent would have anyway. Lunch isn't private information, the curriculum isn't private information, tests and homework as well isn't private, its just that it was all a shit ton of minutia that typically didn't get memorized by any individual.

Part of being a parent is helping your child navigate and learn about the world. Having this sort of information - what are the details about what this institution is offering on a daily basis - sounds invaluable.
That makes a ton of sense. The process of dissimulation that we go through as children just to be able to map language to our environment sounds like this. Once an experience is categorized we likely don't have the CPU spin up on the next similar experience. Business as usual. No need to make a note in memory about it.
The very first sentence in my first reply was agreeing that the concept of requiring an account is was bad--in case you missed it or misunderstood.

Started reading Smil‘s „Energy and Civilization“ recently and the sense of acceleration as you enter the last two centuries is almost palpable, absolutely mind-boggling once you start noticing it.

As an aside, IIRC there‘s a „timeline of the universe“ on the outside of a spiral ramp at NYC‘s museum of natural history that does a similarly good job at driving this home.
No matter how you integrate different applications, be it via APIs, messaging, or a database, it's vital to separate your application's internal data model from models which it exposes. If you don't do that, you're in for a never-ending story of upstream services unknowingly breaking downstream services, or upstream services not being able to evolve in any meaningful way.

So if they mean directly exposing a service's data model from the database to other services, I'm very skeptical. If they mean providing that access by means of some abstraction, e.g. database views, it can be an option in some cases.

You'll still loose lots of flexibility you'd gain by putting some middleware in between, e.g. ability to scale out compute independently from storage, ability to merge data from multiple sources into one API response, ability to implement arbitrarily complex business logic e.g. in Java, etc.
Because of how precedence works --- you start from the inside and work outwards, the same as when evaluating ordinary maths expressions.

"Pointer to array of int" means you dereference it first to get an array of ints, then index to get an int.
My thoughts not facts. I know that there are more products then I mention.

I fail to see in what segment Hashicorp will remain relevant over time.

Terraform is the tool I mostly see companies pay for. Over time cloud vendors will make Terraform obsolete. In fact it is already a problem to use Terraform since it can not move at the same pace as major cloud vendors.

Vault is an extremely complicated niche tool, most companies should not use.

Consul, the service discovery tool is mostly not needed in cloud environments. Don't think any cloud vendor today have Consul as a service on their agenda even though this has been announced years ago which is a warning sign. Personally I really like Consul and the way you can set up ACL for instance.

Vagrant, use whatever.

Nomad has lost the battle with Kubernetes a long time ago. I never trusted Nomad and I never will but I can see that if you really want to orchestrate a lot of containers Nomad may be the right tool.

When selecting an identity platform you mainly have to go along with the corruption in the industry...

I really wish Hashicorp good luck on this journey though.

Is the SEC Forcing Crypto Devs into Illegality and Anonymity?
yeah, my experience is mostly limited to Poland and Czechia. But I would say that issues around the maintenance of public infrastructure apply to more than just sidewalks. And the attitude of drivers towards pedestrians/cyclists isn't great in most European countries (outside of the Netherlands)
Vehicles are already far more regulated than smartphones, it's not a stretch to imagine that "turning off your car" for something like taking it to a non-authorized shop should be illegal. (Utilities, for example, can't turn off your heat in winter for nonpayment in many states.)

That said, Deere's made a business of it, so what do I know?
"x86 has an innate disadvantage [...] fattening up the frontend" this is inherent largely because of ISA complexity and variable width instructions?

"M1 core which is [...] much wider than both AMD and Intel"
The core width you're referring to is the decoder width yeah? As another poster pointed out the M1 has a large reorder buffer as well. Combined with the ability to index a larger L1 cache what I'm getting here is that the M1 can be a lot better about scheduling instructions (and perhaps even running non-interfering instructions in parallel on a given core (is that a thing?)) because the frontend has more power and space to do so.

I guess that efficiency is then a big part of the puzzle on why the increased bandwidth to ram makes such an impact?
I have been burned often enough by software that auto-updates itself that I am positive I don't want it enabled by default on _my_ systems. Anywhere from between "this feature I really liked is gone" to "now it crashes every five minutes."

Perhaps more importantly, companies that offer software that can auto-update itself, can also make it so that the software uninstalls itself. Or worse, installs something you don't want. It also makes for an especially juicy target for supply chain attackers. So you have quite a bit of a double-edged sword there, from a security standpoint.

I wonder when we're going to stop pretending that there shouldn't be at least a fuzzy divide between software and systems intended for technical users and software for non-technical users. (And we should not be afraid to label them as such.) I fully agree with auto-updates for mass-market software but as a technical user, I don't want the system that I rely upon to make a living to constantly be changing out from underneath me.
This is what is so interesting to me. I'm not saying EUV astro in particular. And frankly how does EUV even work terrestrially? From what I've seen it really doesn't work so well.

What I am pointing out is that something has gone wrong, badly, in astronomy. The TMT is the telescope I've been following most closely. The costing just doesn't make sense. The project delivery seems horrible.

Shall we use the TMT as our example? Its going to HAVE to have some sort of actuation on mirrors, because its sitting under atmosphere. Period. There is going to be noise from atmo in the imaging. So you are already starting behind.

Transmission losses for infra / UV.

My proposal is simple. Put a $2B RFP out for a 9 arc second telescope if that is what is needed, perhaps 10 $1M proposal awards, down select to 3 $20M awards for further work, then down select to 1 or 2 $1B-$2B awards depending on where the bidding comes in. Payment as delivery is met.

Find folks who instead of criticizing dirt cheap access to space can think of ways to take advantage of it.

Note that I say this having written sections of or supported very successful govt grant proposals, chased all the preference points, yadda yadda. An amazing waste of time if someone else had the "in" and you didn't realize it, and sometimes you crush everyone for no good reason other than your proposal checks every box very carefully.
This was my exact thoughts as well. I posted in the hopes it may raise some discussion around its plausibility!

SecDB/Slang originated around 1992 at the commodity trading shop J Aron, which GS had bought 1981. Later (end of the 90s) there was a push to extend it to the rest of the firm, first fixed income, then equities. Armen flew the whole world-wide strat team to NY and gave a presentation, and to drive the point home, he played a clip from StarTrek: "You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile!"
immediate temp fluctuation is more of a heat transfer problem, not overall thermal budget.
That's a bit strange since the text itself elsewhere says no traction inverter included.

The text there says includes "inverter harness"... What does this really mean? You sure they're simply not referring to the inverter mount point / wiring connector at the top of the motor?

"Does NOT include:
Traction inverter
Control system"

If it included the inverter it'd be an incredible deal -- like half the price of equivalently spec'd motors from other manufacturers -- which is why there's no way it does.,
This is the reason I left the whole app ecosystem. Apps are cool, and sometimes really great, but there’s no sense of permanence, no guarantee that your data will survive for long, that the app will be maintained, or that future devices will be able to run the app or access the data.

While I am aware about different levels of severity and the need for prioritising security bugs according to their severity, I wasn't aware about this kind of security model for LTS software where not all security bugs are fixed - seems quite illogical to me (unless, ofcourse, if you are making money of it as a service).

That's because fonts is a collection of the singular font. Colors, the same for color. fontFamily is precisely what is says; a font family. It's a singular unit. There is no inconsistency here.
Telemetry isn't inherently bad or privacy violating.
You are right, it's been around since we evolved into civilized human beings actually. We even have places where people are being "cancelled" out of society. We call it "prison".

The only new thing is that it's labelled "cancel culture" which makes it somehow "bad" for some people.
Is DeFi what we're officially calling cryptocurrencies now? A quick Google search looks like that's the case but I don't know if DeFi covers anything else that I haven't thought of.

"Somehow" being "carrying a 10 pound bag of rice home over my shoulder when I eventually run out". There's no special mystery to it.
Again, if the move is data intensive, do a fleet in space, do long baseline stuff in space if possible.

We went from inmarsat (I was a user) to starlink launching. The differences are remarkable.

All we hear from astro community is how terrible this change is. Well, if you read a bit of sci-fi, space (LEO) is going to get more crowded, so a solution is to get above the crowds.
Fix-it and renames work with lsp+clangd. More complex refactoring would be nice, but in the end what is supported depends on the lsp-server capabilities.

Emacs hanging at times has unfortunately been the reality for a looong time. There is extensive async support, but it is not always used were needed.
except in practice this never works. you cant automate all tasks, even as a programmer a lot of time is spent architecting or debugging, even requirements gathering in some cases. Those details aside, if you automated hours of your job away youd then be asked to do more work (or if you own the place youd probably want to improve your product more anyway) instead of just sitting around working on your own projects during business hours, which some businesses would fire you for or at least theyd claim your work as their intellectual property.
I'm not saying it's impossible! They certainly have plenty of space in the EVEX scheme. But extending the GPRs is a much bigger lift, tooling-wise, than is adding a relatively disjoint ISA extension. Even if they can do it while preserving older encodings, it's just another speedbump at a time when Intel is probably anxious to make x86-64 as frictionless as possible.

Besides, register renaming seems to be working splendidly at the uarch level. Why complicate the architectural model when the gains are already present?
You don't have to guess, Intel themselves say the "peak" TDP of their top i9 is 250W. All to slightly beat 5900X which tops out at 150W. It's insanity, literally have no idea who will buy this.
They're running it under their "Pocket" brand, but with its aggressively practical port layout (including RS232!) it looks a like it's being positioned as the long promised successor to the (fabulous) GPD Micro PC. This impression is bolstered by the odd touchpad and mousebutton placement - copied straight from the Micro PC.

Which is a bit of a shame, because it sacrifices the thing which made the Micro PC a peerless gamechanger - pocketability (ironically). 8 inches is not a pocketable laptop, it's a standard netbook. Which is fine and nice and doubtless many will love it, but... disappointing. What I really wanted was double battery life and cellular modem so I wouldn't have to carry a phone anymore.

I'm getting mixed messages from the touchpad placement as well. That design is perfect for using the computer with your thumbs while walking, and quite awkward for sitting down at a desk. It works fantastically well on the Micro PC, with its clicky thumb keyboard. Yet an 8 inch netbook would seem to be too large for thumb typing. What are the intended ergonomics here?

The swappable rear port for all the exotic KVM stuff is a fascinating feature.
>"Perhaps the best way to deal with these laws is to let the ones that turn a few million innocent people into felons overnight pass"

There are already hundreds if not thousands of these; the average person commits a felony something like once a day. Nobody seems to want to tackle over-criminalization. Many books and articles have been written on the subject, and I invite you to read them.
Love these features. Just wish it wasn't Windows.
The proposed mechanism is that all recalled long-term memories (older than this week) are weighted independently of recency, so as you get older more of your memories are from the past years than the latest year, so the latest year seems less substantial.
That would make sense if Zillow employees were literally the people painting the walls. As it is (or was), there's probably a project manager that managed hundreds of houses, spends all day on the phone call painting companies, and then just assumes they do a good job. I'm perfectly capable of calling a painting company myself and don't need to pay Zillow thousands of dollars extra to do it for me.
PC laptop pricing fluctuates so much and I don't know why. You can kit out a ThinkPad P15 with these specs for ~2500 right now. Next month the prices will be flipped. Go figure. At least Apple is consistently priced high.
I think a big part of it is that Docker failed to expand much beyond their initial offering. They tried, but weren't able to get much traction. HashiCorp probably wouldn't be IPOing with a multi-billion dollar valuation if they continued to focus mainly on Vagrant.
Mitch has always struck me as a singularly sincere and dedicated individual. His passion for the end user experience show in his every product decision. As a developer, I've enjoyed using his tools more than I should. Most enterprise software is designed by committee. Hashicorp's products feel like they were designed by one person -- or perhaps they know their users extremely well.
Good lord just reading your description made me feel very uncomfortable.

>None focus specifically on COVID

All I needed to know. Thank you for editing your previous comment. Even so, saying there is a "good chance" is still a massive over-statement of what is currently known.

The study on "long-haul" prevalence did not paint the same picture of a terrifying "Long Covid". The reported symptoms seemed quite mild - "fatigue and shortness of breath". Thanks to a combination of increased unhealthiness thanks to lockdowns, and the now endless cycles of diseases being passed around, that sound like my every day life. The published evidence around "Long Covid" certainly does not match the popular and widely-circulated (generally online) stories and dire admonitions.
A lot of big finance companies use Nomad for all their compute scheduling. Citadel, for instance. They desire the ability to schedule Windows workloads, containers, regular processes, etc. through a common interface. They might not want or need to go all-in on containers.

Vault has a similar target market. Big high-paying institutions. It's not the average market of your tech company, and 100-200 person startups generally won't need it. If you're in the fintech space, maybe you do.
Windows Phone was killed by U.S. carriers that refused to activate them.

For example, in C++ in Visual Studio I can click on a class member variable or method and rename it and the IDE will rename all uses of that variable or method and not get confused about other classes with the same name.

struct Foo
{
std::string name;
int age;
};

struct Bar
{
std::string name;
double weight;
};

Foo f1 = ...;
Foo f2 = ...;
Bar b = ...;

std::cout << f1.name;

In the code above I can select "name" on the last line and rename it. The Foo struct and all instances of name via f1 or f2 are updated to use the new name. Bar and instance b are untouched. AFAIK, Emacs can't do this.

> Why is that, do F1 races have a speed limit?

F1 cars are mostly optimised for massive aerodynamic downforce and lightness, which allows for unholy levels of braking, acceleration, and cornering speeds, but eventually the downforce hobbles top speed.

The LMP (Le Mans) formula of a couple of years ago has heavier cars with higher peak outputs, but lower downforce. They're slower around an F1 style track because their cornering and acceleration suffers due to the extra weight, but they have a higher top speed if they're on a long straight.
