Always encourage her to seek second or third opinions and to join support groups if she can. All cancers are not the same, and staging can determine prognosis, but nothing is set in stone. Ensure that she is active, as that seems to help reduce harshness of chemo to some extent anecdotally.

Let your employer know if they are empathetic, take the FMLA leave to set things up for her. Little things go a long way, like being with her during chemo sessions, cooking food that she likes and is palatable, being on hand to help her with nausea and other side effects, or even arranging distractions like a movie or finding her books to read.
Is "Vendor lock-in" a good argument anymore? I've never been with a company that's moved cloud providers, and I'd bet it's a pretty rare case.
Aren't the unvaccinated people in ICUs already not following COVID mandates? In areas of Southern California (e.g. Temecula) with low vaccination rates, there are virtually no restrictions. Why restrict a compliant populace that is already mostly vaccinated?
As a developer with an arts background (studied music, happened into tech work after college through years of mostly self-taught hobbyist tendencies) I'd agree that the design of these tests themselves is a factor that's thoroughly understated.

Timed algo challenges encompass a slew of antipatterns in terms of how good code is actually written and shipped. To begin with, pitting someone against a clock and hidden test cases (and a foreign editor) is actively optimizing against solutions that are readable to other human beings -- or to the person writing them, a year from now. The nature of running them in a browser means that it can't evaluate a person's capacity to actually use tools outside of core language functionality. Never mind that building the entire exercise around predetermined test cases precludes any way to gauge whether the person taking it has an understanding of writing tests.

And that's assuming your test environment doesn't add obnoxious and arbitrary restrictions of its own. Like telling you that using documentation is cheating. (Btw imagine listening for ctrl+t here, but not ctrl+n.) Or offering you "the language of your choice," but then throwing API call exercises at you while limiting your choice of JavaScript runtimes to a bare installation of Node -- the only one still in active development, out of a list that also includes every browser you would use to actually access the test -- that doesn't support Fetch.

> Forgive me if I don’t want to read anything written by someone making an astrology product. I may be open-minded

No. You are closed-minded. The article explained three reasons why Haskell was chosen, not about converting you to believe in Astrology.

FUNCTIONS IN THE MATHEMATICAL SENSE
TYPE-DRIVEN PROGRAMMING
HASKELL MAKES ILLEGAL STATES UNREPRESENTABLE

This is the tl;dr from the page, where there is nothing about Astrology:

"Haskell is optimized for developer efficiency. You can get a lot done, have a high degree of confidence that it runs reasonably without having to do too much thinking or ass-covering. We move fast & need things to be reliable. Rather than hand optimizing Doom 2 for ___, Haskell is the opposite. The computers serve us. Code is for humans to read, and only incidentally for computers to read. Code is how humans express themselves to each other and computers, and it’s up to computers to run it in a reasonably good way."
Masks became a regular fixture in Asia after original SARS. Not by regulation, but they just became an ordinary item used by people to avoid getting sick or avoid getting others sick.
Not empirically, but my manager focuses primarily on the engineering expensive for our team and potential hires. This results in explicit feedback gathering, modifying our process accordingly.

We have short, standardized, broad interviews. We look for what can be added to the team rather than poking holes, and we're still trying to improve.
Anything is possible. The difference between us is that you are starting with the arguably paranoid assumption that "the patriarchy" is the root of the problem and I'm starting with the Occam's razor assumption they simply didn't like her.
You are right, I edited it.
Looks like based on the Asahi Linux, the fact that windows can't run on it is solely Microsoft's problem. If Hector Martin can get a Linux system to boot in a few months, I am sure Microsoft engineers can too.
In many cases I think the Arch wiki is superior even to the official documentation. Which I think says a lot about the state of most documentation.
We compared their performance review scores. I was always leery of this given how fraught performance reviews are, but that’s how the company judged employee ‘worth’ so it made sense to align there.

Then further down, the article also links to other articles that goes deeper:

> Facebook Vice President Andrew Bosworth told employees that the company is evaluating the legal and privacy issues around facial recognition for its upcoming wearable gadget.

Not sure why you think it's speculative when it's based on Meta/Facebook employees own statements.

By the way, thanks for leaving a comment here and being public about working at Facebook, can't be easy to receive so much hate, especially here on HN, but we all need everyone's perspective, so thanks a lot for providing it here!
It is probably better to stick with 2G+4G combination, as in that case it is less picky about the correct type of the 4G module (as in, there are modules that work in this configuration, but not as 2x4G) and IIRC the chipset cannot address the entire 8GB of RAM anyway.
You could say that about doing free plumbing, free dentistry, etc.
So we've been working on fusion for a long time, now it looks like we're getting close, but if we were actually close then we would have gotten there already so we must not be close? Is this a new version of Zeno's paradox?
We just had our second a few weeks ago, and to figure out some names, we each got a big list of "kind of like this name," totally casual and noncommittal, and combined them. We then used a little Elo[1] rater script I whipped up to compare items, it was fun! Once you get a short list there's no good algorithm to figure it out, but using Elo we both found names we loved that we never would have thought about, and had a fun time doing so.

If it's ASGI compliant, there's no real difference.

Daphne is written to be a reference implementation of ASGI, not as a Django-specific server.

If you're using Django Channels in production you might even be better served by trying out Uvicorn, it's a lot faster.
Because people like Python and it does a decent job at it. Might not be your cup of tea for a variety of reasons, but a lot of people think it works well on the server. Is speed the concern? Spinning up a new server is pretty easy nowadays. Is it the lack of static typing? Aside from type hint support over the last few versions, I'd claim based on experience that PHP feels more loose with its types than Python is (mixed return results feel more common in PHP).

Python does a lot well for a lot of people. All that said, I think a lot of languages can do a lot of things well without serious performance impact. If you need the performance, choose the language based on that criteria.

All of the math goes over my head, frankly, but one of the cryptocurrencies I'm interested in is implementing something similar to this afaik (https://minaprotocol.com/). They have a recursive zkSNARK scheme for constant sized proofs of their entire blockchain, so you only ever need to store around 22kb(!) to verify transactions. It sounds like very useful technology, instead of blockchain ledgers only ever increasing in size over time and making full nodes harder to run.

It does not matter if you describe a service as a database or anything else. The implications are the same. A service must make architectural decisions. Those decisions impose limits. And those limits are billed.

Regardless, HTTP servers are completely uninteresting on their own. No one makes a request to a web server to see how the server is feeling. The server's only function is to serve content. Content it must retrieve (i/o), store (memory), and transform (cpu). That store and transform step nukes your RPS and is completely unavoidable. And, in a high worker environment, will crash your system.

The last two years have convinced me: When the Zombie Apocalypse comes, zombies are biting and killing people in the streets, and neighborhoods are burning down, 50% of the country (world?) will whistle and just continue to go about their day, shopping, going out to eat, sending their kids to school, and looking down at all those hysterical alarmists bunkering up trying to defend themselves from the hoard. "Government, don't force me to change my life! I have the freedom to pretend everything is normal!"
If someone wanted to get past it they probably could. We've had a few sources of traffic that we've had to straight up block (as opposed to challenge) because of this exact issue. So far it's been a "good enough" solution that blocks enough of the bot traffic to be effective.
This is a good list! I do disagree with #8 and #9 though...

#8: "just another kid among the other 10..." always seemed weird to me. There are tons of notable Peter's, John's, Anne's, and Olivia's in the world. The converse is of course the mistaken idea that a remarkable or unique name makes a remarkable or unique person and at least anecdotally in my life I've seen more young people find difficulty in the attention given to their uncommon name than I have people finding difficulty being unnoticed for having a common one.

#9: As parents you actually have a ton of control over nicknames when the child is small. I know a number of Jonathans who don't go by Jon, Joshuas who don't go by Josh, Daniels who don't go by Danny, etc. You 100% can't manage the names people use to TEASE your child (as you addressed in earlier points) but you can teach your child and those around them that initially you and then ultimately your child does have ownership of how their name is used.

Agree with the rest of your list, just wanted to give my 2c on those two!
It's not. But I feel confident (perhaps my confidence is misplaced) that this is because what's really going on here is that this does what LLVM does, and there's some risk LLVM changes exactly what it does, most likely to suit clang so in that case Rust has to go along for the ride or perhaps get itself a new suite of compiler backends...

If so I feel that risk is small and continues to shrink.
Vancouver BC is magical and (IMO) one of the most beautiful cities in the world. In July & August, hands down the most beautiful place in the world, but still, 8 months of the year it's dark, wet and cold. If you're passionate about getting into the mountains or on the water and you can tolerate the rain, it's a wonderful place. Lots of wealthy people in Vancouver own boats to go sailing in the summer and a condo in Whistler to ski in the winter and their quality of life unbeatable. On the other hand, I know a couple people who moved from Vancouver to Canmore, Alberta because they still got their fill of mountains, but they traded a bit colder of climate for significantly more days of sunshine. It's all a trade-off in the end. Regarding affordability: Vancouver is expensive if you're working for a local company & paid in CAD, but if you're earning a US salary (esp Bay Area), Vancouver feels substantially more affordable than most large US cities (again, IMO, it's very hard to compare cost-of-living between countries).

I think the point of Async IO is not to go faster, but to be able to server more requests in a single process. This is only possible when request time is mostly spent waiting for I/O.

So if you have some server and you want to handle hundreds of thousands of concurrent requests, and each requests takes a few hundred milliseconds and most of this time is waiting for I/O (e.g, waiting for other micro services to reply), then using Async IO you could do this in one single box. Yo probably won't be able to do that with a typical balanced process pool such ash uwsgi or gunicorn.

What I don't understand about domain masking is how the offender gets paid? Surely the owner of the 'borrowed' domain gets paid instead?
With antibiotics, it is possible to kill an infection without developing a full immune response, leaving the person susceptible to reinfection. Even if that infection is symptomatic and has been going on for days, the immune response still may not be robust enough before the antibiotics kill off the infection. Not sure if that also occurs with anti-virals.
Sure, but there's a continuum at play here. Haskell leaves some correctness on the table, right? -- you should be using Idris 2; or better yet, proving your API in Coq and extracting the code. From some perspectives, Haskell is the "worse" in "worse is better".

Personally I find python-is-wrong arguments to be a bit naive. "It's a crappy language that's only good enough to build prototypes..." -- like YouTube, for example? :) Ultimately, smart developers are smart, and can get work done with whatever tools they have at hand.
That last sentence is hilarious.
Quite so. It was put together in a day, and we have to endure some of its quirks decades later.

In France this goes in front of a judge. Names that seem harmful to the child won't be accepted.

Famous occurrences are "Nutella" (ended up "Ella"), "Megane Renault" (a brand of car, ultimately accepted because it's old enough not to mean anything to kids), "Mohamed Merah" (same name as a terrorist who killed 7).

Evidence shows that some parents are just too dumb to be trusted not to set their child up for ridicule and bullying.
If they scale then the politicians won't have an excuse to maintain their mandates. They were able to get navy ships with hundreds of beds scaled up in weeks at the start of the pandemic. The cost to society of the mandates is certainly more that it would cost to scale ICUs.
I am not, I've been using the wrong working.

I would say it's pretty hard to add an await in the wrong place, although not impossible. I think it's easier to:

- forget an await

- forget a asyncio.wait or a asyncio.gather

The later is very common, and is being addressed by the structured concurrency movement we've seen with Trio and the likes. This should end up in mainline python eventually because it is, indeed, a problem.

However, it's still way easier to shot yourself in the foot with concurrency and threads than with asyncio.

However, it is harder to startup with asyncio than with threads, because there is more to learn just to boot.
The reactor is supposed to be pulsed, so 1ms might be fine.

Skipping the heat cycle is possible if they achieve their goal of using aneutronic fuel. With D-T fusion (the easiest) the output energy is 80% neutrons, so you're stuck with heat. With aneutronic, you mostly get fast-moving charged particles.
I'm really sorry to hear about your Mom. I was diagnosed with cancer in September and it has been a wild ride. I can relate at least a little, but I'm sure this hits everyone differently and we all handle it differently. If you find it is hard to focus, that is totally normal. Don't be hard on yourself over it. Hopefully your manager is understanding, that can be a huge help.
don't be so fast to dismiss needing 'server side stuff'

one pitfall of react that it fixed for me was escaping the single page gracefully.

for example, if you want to have any other /pages that can be shared properly on facebook / get index on a search engine, then you NEED to render that on the server (can be statically generated with next.js so you still don't need a server)

doing routing with pure react is a complete headache and mess of code, plus it will not get indexed properly / look right on a search engine.

if you start with next.js, you lose none of the react functionality, add very little overhead, and can actually make a functioning website a lot more easily.

like i said, i rejected it to begin with too - but it is super useful and super easy to use. don't make my mistakes all over again!
Doesn’t your thread just get put to sleep by the kernel when it is blocked on I/O? Unless Node busy waits on I/O I don’t see the problem?
I had an old netbook with an Atom CPU and 2 Go of Ram. So naturally I installed Lubuntu on it with LXDE. It was ok. Then came LXQt. I tried to install on my machine but the new installer kept playing tricks on me.

Fed up, I decided to give Ubuntu a try and what a surprise. Not only was it a bit snappier than Lubuntu.

What made the difference, was that Ubuntu had a much, much better quality of life features that made using it much more productive.

I know some people that made tons of money simply for setting up the arbitrage, shell companies that would sell ad space to big brands promising top tier media orgs and then turn around and buy it directly from porn, gaming and piracy sites.

I wish DJI would make their products more repairable. The gimbal mount on my Mavic Air 2 broke partially, and I can easily see how to fix it myself if I had a replacement. I had hobby drones in the past where you could order (or even go to a hobby shop) and get spare parts, and DIY repair was a huge part of owning it. Turns out the only way to repair the mount is to send it in to an authorized repair center for them to replace the entire gimbal and camera at a high cost. I resorted to using super glue for now.
