> Project Hail Mary, by Andy Weir

No. Just no. It is hard science fiction, but there is no character development. I had no empathy for the main character and did not care about him or his fate. Also he is unusually prude, which he blames on being a school teacher, but even his inner dialogue consists of “HOLY COW!” when surprised. I mean, really??
I understand "bare-metal" to mean without an operating system. More recently, the definition has confusingly expanded to sometimes include an operating system, but without a hypervisor.

This is a tutorial on installing Ubuntu, then k3s, then other software. What exactly is "bare-metal" about this?? :)
This is the central tragedy of Facebook.

They set out to build a platform where anyone, no matter how small, could compete with big media on a level playing field based on a straightforward metric: whether a user cares enough about a post that they're willing to engage with it. Publishers get rewarded for producing compelling content, users get to see more content they care about, and Facebook makes money since people spend more time on the site. Everybody wins.

And they succeeded wildly at this. But as it turns out, the things people respond to most are spam and hate and conspiracy theories.
It's the Berlin, or Hannover, probably, cynicism. If they can't have a good mileu, you can't have any good things, as a client or user. Berlin and Hannover are cynical people you know! < 3
Yeah, that's fair. But there is certainly a difference when you bushwhack as opposed to trail hiking to a popular camp site or scenic spot.
But the fact that you're even mentioning your desktop in the same breath is kind of the whole reason it is amazing. Like that's the rhetoric--holy shit your laptop is doing this.

>Not at all perfect. Can that human guard really see if you're wearing a fake fingerprint? I doubt it, unless he's closely examining everyone's fingerprints first. And even then...

The procedure at the USCIS to get my green card was remarkably thorough. The guard manually and visually checked each of my fingertips carefully to ensure I had no fake print overlayed on top of my real print and I had to keep my hands within a small area with a camera on it for the entire process or they would restart everything.
I'm not sure if you're jesting, but I was wondering about that. Does this indicate that they have run closer to "completion"? Or that they're just lagging a few weeks behind the rest of Europe this time?

Spain and Italy are also somewhat lower than Germany, Austria, etc., which would fit the theory of just having more cases early, but Belgium and the Netherlands (also early high rates) are much higher. Also, per capita mortality in Sweden and France is quite similar the entire pandemic, but France seems to be seeing more of an uptick.

But, again, it will be an anomaly more in need of an explanation if it actually persists for more than a week or two, and there is still at this point the possibility that it is simply a delay in spiking upwards compared to the rest of Europe rather than not doing it at all.
I was like you at first, seeing that my chrome speeds don't feel that fast, then I did my first XCode build. Holly.. it is so much faster than my 2017 Macbook Pro.

Super fast builds, and A huge productivity boost. I think it shows that if software is optimized for it, M1 can be/feel crazy fast.

Unfortunately, anything running with Roseta, will not feel that fast, as it's performance will be hobbled by the emulation layer.
It's kind of hard to compete with raw power if you don't want a space heater of a device (hint: not wanted in laptop form factor).

However, part of me thinks this is Apple doing iterative rollout best - they could have created a 20-core desktop version of this in 2021 but will likely delay that to next year for the new Mac Pro and iMac Pro.
Does anyone really think that running Linux on custom Apple hardware is actually going to make things _better_?

Wait'll you find out that whether ß is one letter or two varies based on which brand of German you're drinking.

Programmers should understand that it doesn't matter if they think the thousands of years of language rules are irrational; Unicode either handles them or it's wrong.

Unicode doesn't exist to standardize the world's languages to a representation that programmers enjoy. It exists to encode all the world's languages *as they are*.

Whether you are sympathetic to the rules of foreign languages isn't super relevant in practice.
While I am not in favor of the bill, his description of it is far different from the one presumably on his Wikipedia page.

He said it adds to an existing law, one that has never sent a person to prison, that forbids people from following a boycott organized by a foreign state. You'd be free to form your own boycott.

Again, not something I support. But on the "bullshit Representatives support" scale, not a huge deal

I think that's just Andy Weir at this point. I enjoyed The Martian, but Artemis was horrible. Characters were indistinguishable from one another, they were all just Andy trying to emulate the success of the cocky sarcastic hero from The Martian. After reading that I don't think I need to read any more of his work.
> I thought the Colorado law was about base pay?

That’s not the way I read it:

Employers must include the following compensation and benefits information in each posting:

(A) the hourly rate or salary compensation (or a range thereof) that the employer is offering for the position;

(B) a general description of any bonuses, commissions, or other forms of compensation that are being offered for the job; and

(C) a general description of all employment benefits the employer is offering for the position, including health care benefits, retirement benefits, any benefits permitting paid days off (including sick leave, parental leave, and paid time off or vacation benefits), and any other benefits that must be reported for federal tax purposes, but not benefits in the form of minor perks.

RSUs are benefits that must be reported for federal tax purposes.
This is fascinating.

I'd posit that this random blog is harmless. It's better that some random dropship site is connected to this traffic than a more sophisticated organization IMO.
I appreciate this effort. Not sure where the initial confusion came from, but you don't take it lightly, and that matters.
A highlight of my development career thus far is when I was able to fix a build that happened to be broken on a colleague's machine, which had stumped three other developers for multiple hours spread across a week.

I don't remember the line of reasoning or detailed investigation that led to the solution, but I found something in a build configuration file that looked suspicious enough to warrant a search for an exact phrase in the code. It turned up a StackOverflow answer, where three lines had been cut and pasted into the build file.

There was some specific change in a library or binary upgrade that had broken the thing that this particular change was meant to fix, and the problem was solved by removing the lines in question.

The commit comment for these three lines was "merge hmmmm", which was also the only local documentation I found that I could have used to cross-reference with anything else.
All true!

Some common edits are:

Change in process parameters mid program, speed / feed rate tweaks to optimize production jobs, tool number change to run job on different machine / tool setup.

I absolutely hate Google, but if it was between them and GoDaddy, I think I'd pick Google.

> Serverless, but not portable

> you’ll spend most of your time figuring out how to mate these functions with other services from that cloud provider

That's just as true if you move the code from serverless to a VM in that cloud, and keep using all the other services.

Vendor lock-in for the serverless function itself seems to mostly be an AWS thing (Lamdba). Elsewhere, the trend is more running any old container will function as serverless.

If you choose to consume dozens of proprietary services from a regular container, that is on you.
So SaaS is just some online app that does something that somebody pays you a monthly recurring fee for?
This is so great, thanks for sharing. I’ve found some really amazing routes.
> [Moderation is] not something you can do easily in GitHub

That seems like a pretty significant design flaw :(

> Part of that is modern tools (Git forges like Gitea, sr.ht, etc) don't really enforce that separation [between "community" and "code"]

Indeed, this makes perfect sense.

Yup, totally fair and makes sense.
I'm a Mac app developer, I'm stuck with Xcode.

But it's not all or nothing. For example I've started using Syncthing instead of iCloud Drive for some use cases and that works surprisingly well (Syncthing isn't without flaws either, but at least it shows exactly what it's doing making it a lot easier to debug).
One might argue that the industry and the market are a lot different than how they were 15 years ago, however.
There's not quite an "algorithm"; SSN's are so short (it's just a 9-digit number, so max 1 billion unique SSNs) that they have a very simple procedure for assigning them. The Social Security Administration explains it here: https://www.ssa.gov/history/ssn/geocard.html

- The first set of three digits is called the Area Number

- The second set of two digits is called the Group Number

- The final set of four digits is the Serial Number

Certain geographic areas get certain "Areas Numbers", then Group Numbers are assigned consecutively, then Serial Numbers are assigned consecutively. This entire system of consecutive assignment makes it trivial to guess pretty well, or even exactly, what someone's SSN is.
This could be Berkson's paradox (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkson%27s_paradox) in action. Larger projects probably have more toxicity than smaller projects and are more likely to have a CoC. The result is that the two factors appear to be correlated even if they are independent variables.

Yes and lots of people made millions buying and selling crypto currencies, or stocks or whatever. Making a couple million is hardly prove that your 'grand theory' is correct. As Talib and others have long pointed out with traders, there is an element of randomness. At the same time correctly identifying the effect from the symptoms might be useful, but it doesn't mean you understand the root cause.

Total nominal spending is a function of central bank action. What he actually bet on was that central bank failed to properly react to the situation and let a massive nominal spending gap develop. Monetary economics predicts very well what happens when you have nominal spending gap and that is exactly what happened in 2008 and beyond.

Recovery was massively better if the places where the central banks had nominal spending on trend and much worse the bigger the spending gap was.

Some Keynesian economist might argue that central banks couldn't not do anything if interest rates were low. This is an old Keynesian believe that somehow stuck in the minds of many older influential economists and had still been around in central banks operational doctrines. Of course many of economists both before and after Keynes never believed this. Central banks models were based on New Keynsian style economic modeling that were interest rate depended and relied on past data, rather then forward looking indicators. Central banks were literally driving by looking in the mirror while having a steering-wheel that only worked under certain conditions. Even in New Keynesian economics this had been criticized but not enough for it to make it into conservative bank operations (with few exceptions). And even those famous economists who were critical continued their focus on interest rate.

This led central banks to misunderstand the crisis, the realized the spending collapse to late. Real-interest rates collapsed and nominal interest rates were close to zero breaking many central banks models. Leading to nominal spending shortfall and the exact sort of problems described in the article.

The idea that this happened because of inequality makes no sense. If that was true then post-2008 we should have seen a clear dataset where more equal countries had better rediscover then more unequal countries (or monetary zones). However no such correlation exists to my knowledge.

Just like in 1929-1931 all kinds of things were blamed (and are often still blamed) but by now the majority of economists agree that fundamentally about a nominal collapse and a failure of the central bank. Even central banks have admitted it. It probably gone take another 50 years but eventually they will admit that they were mostly at fault in 2008 as well. Until then everybody can parade around their hobby horse.

Non of this of course says anything about if in-equally is good or bad. Or if such crisis make inequality worse, they very well might. My assertion here is simply that overall economic recovery measures are not dedicated by inequality rates.

Thank you for sharing the original Reuters article. In that article it says Amazon helped draft Virginia's privacy bill. So I guess they are making exactly the effort you talked about? But of course Reuters is calling them out on it:

"In Virginia, the company boosted political donations tenfold over four years before persuading lawmakers this year to pass an industry-friendly privacy bill that Amazon itself drafted."

After a lot of insinuations and handwaving about lobbying, the article has this short paragraph about what's actually in the law:
"The Virginia law allows technology companies to track consumer searches on their platforms to create marketing profiles. It gave tech companies exemptions to collect and analyze smart-speaker recordings without customer consent. And it prevented consumers from suing companies over privacy violations."

Seems totally reasonable to me. Amazon already lets you get a copy of your data and you can request for it to be deleted. And from having worked there (note: I no longer work there and don't have a dog in this fight), I know how the org ties its own hands and makes things difficult for itself, just to protect customer data and their right for that data to be deleted forever.
