In Europe just using debit cards is perfectly viable in 99% of the cases, however when it comes to car rentals you are still in some locations forced to provide a 'real' credit card.

I write 'real' since most of the FinTechs like Revolut, N26 etc often issue debit cards that may fail in exactly that situation. It doesn't help if your account is flush with 10k USD and a car rental could easily block 2k for claims on your debit card, some will just not accept Revolut & co. Thus I am always forced to carry an emergency backup credit card from a major bank just to be on the safe side...

Very much looking forward to the day some other means of international payment (crypto?) will be generally accepted.

Congress Waiting on CBO for Build Back Better Report
The reason that gets brought up in discussions like this is that Microsoft got that flak back when they abused their monopoly position to push IE. Comparing iOS's and Android's market position to Windows' from that time, it's not the same landscape, especially for Apple.

However, as a human being, I hate them all for their practices. If it wasn't for the free software movement, I would have definitely dropped IT as a dear hobby of mine.

Go support is one example. If you set up Emacs to provide decent support for Go at different times between 2015 (when I started using Go) and today, the setup would probably last an average of 18 months or so before you lose something significant and had to sit down and bodge something together to get some replacement for functionality that just died.

I can't remember what specific functionality had just died, but I was in the process of re-doing my Go setup from scratch for the third time or so when I figured I'd give VS Code another spin.
This depends on your library system. I am under a provincial library system which is woefully underfunded. We get “flavours of the month” services that are likely trial versions offered to libraries before lock-in. Some of the choices over the years were Freegal Music, Ancestry.com and some sort of language training thing.

Our Overdrive tier is probably the cheapest and I occasionally use my parents’ library card for expanded Overdrive access, who live in a place with a much better funded library system.
I hope you mean yearly.
And even on Android, many open-source projects decide to use Java as they can have access to a wider pool of programmers (Signal, etc). C# is only decreasing in usage, the runtime is just not there, C# has always been known in the enteprise as the language that skipped leg day. It's impressive how many features they've added in a short amount of time that make sense (though some will say, even a few of the Microsoft devs, that async/await was kind of rushed), but the runtime has only received some attention in the most recent times, lagging behind Java with approximately 10 years of research. JS is just JS, hate it or love it, it is here to stay, no point in arguing about this. Put some makeup on it to make things bearable with TypeScript and that's it.
I opened a PDF yesterday and it showed me the prompt, even though my default had been set. In the prompt Edge was in its own special top element (below the current default but above the alternatives) with a name like "microsoft's recommendation".

It is an underspecified problem.

The problem as I’ve seen it described is a one-time deal, you choose a door and then Monty opens a second door that has a goat. But the problem statement doesn’t clarify whether Monty must show a second door in all cases.

Let’s assume an evil Monty who knows where the car is, and gets any cars when you guess wrong. It is consistent with the problem as stated…you don’t know the motivation or information that Monty has from the problem statement.

If you guess right the first time, Monte is happy to show you the goat door. Because he knows you did a probabilistic analysis and he knows that when the goat door is opened, you will change your mind. And when you do, you always get the goat. Monty gets the car.

But when you choose the wrong door, let’s say Monty does not open a goat door. The problem statement doesn’t say that you know Monty will show a goat door when you make your choice every time. Evil Monty, in the case where you guessed wrong, just opens your original choice, which is not a car.

The problem as stated does not say that Monty always opens the goat door. Just that he did this one time. If you include Evil Monty scenarios, the game theoretic solution equilibrates to what you expect…makes no never mind whether you change your mind or not. It’s only when you think you can game the system that you leave yourself open to never winning.

It’s peanuts enough to not affect that many users, but loud and clear to send the message that Windows is no longer users’. It’s Microsoft’s.

If you step back a little, there is a clear pattern. Starting with the mandatory telemetry and forced updates in W10, cross-signing requirements for any kernel code, unyielding push for using web accounts for local logins and all the way up to the mandatory hardware TPM in W11 (which literally has no other major differences from W10) - the proverbial garden is getting all walled up whether anyone likes it or not.

I am beginning to be of the sentiment that human brains are usually functionally approximated by pushdown automatons, while our emotional life better approximates hypercomputation. The commonly assumed view that minds are Turing machines no longer fits me.

The argument against consciousness, for survival-machines seems strong. To find an ecological niché for consciousness requires more creativity than survival ever would... and so an evolution of consciousness may have happened in program space instead of hot and wet mechanistic nature.

This is cool, however, personally I feel like for my use case that integration with 1Password and Fastmail is better because I don't want to depend on a browser that I cannot use everywhere to manage this.

In the same way that I avoid Sign in with Apple - what am I supposed to do when I need to Sign in without Apple?!

I find 1P+FM is a much more cross-platform solution.

However, I commend Firefox for creating this functionality for people that don't use a separate password manager or Fastmail!
Thank you! Please first see my comments to parent, as they describe how online schema change work within the same server; with PlanetScale branching, we do give you a development branch with which you can play as much as you want, without affecting production. Online schema change kicks in when you deploy your changes to production.

> the scope of migrations is limited to those where both old and new DDL are compatible with the currently running application.

You are absolutely correct, and that is the paradigm. Say, for example, you want to add a column, so you first run the migration that adds the column, and only afterwards can you deploy an application change that actually utilizes that column. Likewise if you want to DROP a column, you first deploy an app change that ceases to reference the column, and only then can you actually drop it.

This paradigm worked very well for the companies I worked with, and makes for both loose and tight coupling between code and database. It's loose when you have your test databases where you can deploy schema changes at will. It's loose in the sense you can take small steps at a time, each isolated from the other (e.g. ADD COLUMN does not require you to make any app changes _yet).
Then, it's tight where you couple your code changes with the schema in your git repo. It's tight in that the app never gets too far from the database (normally one change away at any given time, per development branch).

> Being the migration asynchronous, I lose control of when to deploy changes to the application

Great point and absolutely on our radar.

> Not knowing exactly then the cut-over process is going to happen is also potentially a problem.

Again great point and on our radar. To be honest I previously moved away from caring about the exact cut-over time. We designed gh-ost to do just that: stall cut-over until the engineer/developer is happy to sit at their desk. OVer time, we found it was unnecessary. But absolutely there's use cases for both approaches.
In our fractional reserve system your saved money literally sits in the bank. The debtor gets fresh money and when he repays the loan the money disappears into thin air.

It's important that people delay consumption so that there is enough room for investments but european countries are running well below capacity. Savings mostly affects inflation rather than the nominal amount of money that can be lent out.

Not all old, unfashionable editors are dead, though. See WordStar, for example. And people definitely still use all of the editors in your "fallen" list to get work done.

I use a mix of editors on a day-to-day basis because they each solve a particular problem in a way I like. I imagine everyone else has a similar thought process. If you like the way it works, then it's the editor for you.

I believe that costs associated with payment should always be an explicit part of the customer's bill, so that there would actually be competitive pressure between payment providers to drive down that cost.

It would also make it clear to the customer that they are actually paying themselves for those "rewards" on their card.
Maybe I'm overly paranoid (but considering Microsoft's behavior over the past twenty years, it would be in character), I can't help but think that WSL is a stalking horse for forbidding Linux from bare metal booting on consumer PCs.

I actually find it surprising how dedicated Microsoft seem to be in protecting Edge browser given that they just recently made the choice to rip out the engine and replace it with Google's.

... and yet Firefox is essentially verboten in this context.

This statement from Microsoft sounds like a carbon copy of their approach that got them in trouble all those years ago:

Windows also offers certain end-to-end customer experiences in both Windows 10, and Windows 11, the search experience from the taskbar is one such example of an end-to-end experience that is not designed to be redirected.

The more things change...

I don't want an operating system offering end to end customer experiences or any other marketing phrasing. I want an operating system that gets the fuck out of the way so I can do my stuff. And their search experience from the taskbar has always been a dud experience that I avoid wherever possible.

To be fair though, Windows has been getting in the way since XP's default theme, so it's not really a sudden change of direction. It's an abusive ex that don't get why their relationships never seem to last.
A credit rating basically isn't considered for a mortgage in the UK. They will check a report, and maybe request you pay outstanding debts (I was asked to clear my CC balance before completion both times), but unless you have a fraud marker or are bankrupt it won't affect you. Mortgages are secured on the asset, so it's far less risky than a personal loan of 5x less - the bank can seize the asset and force the sale of the home (and that difference in risk is reflected in the difference in borrowing rates).
Sure, I've taken out loans, had several mortgages, multiple bank accounts, paid all my utility bills. All of that can influence your credit scores.

It is possible some people could have so little credit history that having a card for a while might be beneficial. I don't know enough about the system to be sure, so maybe I was being a bit flippant, for which I apologise.
Natwest are also swapping to MasterCard debit once cards expire. I just presumed the issuing bank had negotiated a more favourable interchange rates than using Visa.

(MC taking less of a cut of the final fees then Visa, so the banks getting a higher precentage of the fees then they would have sticking with Visa. Lets say MC gave away 5% of their cut to the banks, keeping 95% of the your slice of the pie when you are processing more pies is more than 100% of your slice of fewer pies if you get what I mean).

I think "just for fun" is probably a large part of it, but a stated reason is also that it makes tighter vertical integrations and consistency across all layers easier.
I would look at these topics and in this order:

1. Containerisation - can you build a hello world web app in any language then Dockerise it.

2. Now break it into two containers - one is the original hello world but now it calls an API on a 2nd container that responds with hello world in one of 10 different languages. Just hard code this the point is that it’s now 2 containers for your “app”.

3. Create a Docker repository in GCP’s Artefact Registry and upload your images. Now remove them from your local Docker registry and run them again but this time pulling them from your registry on GCP.

3. Use Cloudbuild to build them.

4. Spin up a local Kubernetes cluster such as Minikube.

5. Read docos about K8s deployments and service types. Special attention to ClusterService, NodePort, LoadBalancer.

6. Deploy the first version of your hello world. Maybe try to point your YAML to the local registry then the one on GCP you created.

7. Create a service to access your app.

8. Figure out how to turn in and access (via proxy) the kubernetes dashboard.

9. Now deploy the 2nd version of your app. Learn a bit more about K8s networking, pod horizontal scaling, pod resource claims, kill some pods, etc.

10. Learn Skaffold.

11. Create GKE cluster.

12. Deploy same app.

13. Learn about K8s Ingress.

14. Get familiar with GKEs console.

15. Use knowledge of Skaffold to understand and use the brand new Google Cloud Deploy.
