You might want to look up carpentry, instead of woodworking. They're actually pretty different in skills and approach.

It's like, with woodworking, step one is often "make everything perfectly square". In carpentry, nothing will ever be square. So you just have pretty different problems to solve

This looks to be (based on the very cryptic documentation which references other vendor software) a way of "modernizing" Z System software to run in AWS. They reference a "Mainframe Modernization Runtime" which recompiles mainframe software and runs it inside a EC2 instance, but nothing about what composes the runtime.

I wonder how automated this really is. There's a lot more references to consultants and "partners" than other AWS services.

The first sentence says what is considered

>This is history from above, which deals with foreign policy, war and some of its domestic ramifications

as far as saying gender, race and generational relations were not considered I guess we know the reason, because there are people who consider these issues of overriding importance and are bound to question why they were not included in anything they read. Perhaps the author has already had these questions asked by people who reviewed the book and they decided to forestall further questions by saying there was insufficient space to address the issues.
Most of the way through the book right now and it is indeed living up to its promise. I had become aware of a lot of holes in my understanding of events around, e.g., British consolidation in India during this period or the broader diplomatic context of South American independence movements and the book is doing a good job of filling them in.
Much of the conversation so far in the comments has ignored the context of that sentence in the article:

> He called out my mistakes using words like “crazy,” “nuts,” “ridiculous,” and “stupid.”

> The harsh words stung at first, and caused me to question whether I belonged in theoretical physics. But I couldn’t help noticing that Dick did not seem to take the critical comments as seriously as I did. In the next breath, he would always be encouraging me to try a different approach and inviting me to return when I made progress.

If you have many repeated interactions with the same people where you make it clear you don't think they personally are stupid, and also you are almost never wrong when you call something crazy/nuts/ridiculous/stupid, perhaps you can get away with it. If one of those things is not true, it is not a good way of communicating (in North America, at least).
Exactly, it's more of a b2c thing. Actually in one of my previous gigs (at a energy company that had oil rigs in very remote areas), they wanted to quicken the provisioning of 5g to some of the places they operate in.

AWS was one of the companies they were negotiating with - I never realized they had not yet announced this service.

Yep... it will continue to mutate and we will always have some SARS-CoV-2, as is the case with the flu.

SARS-CoV-2 will probably mutate over time to become less virulent but more transmissible. Vaccines and immune system adaptation will allow most of us to not worry about COVID too much until our later years in life, much like the flu.
COVID will continue to cause some deaths, but at a much lower level which is generally acceptable, as is the case with the flu.
I had a DesqView/X Tshirt for the longest time; wore it to several shows and only had one person recognize it.

I got it at the COMDEX Chicago show where they were doing their first demos (nothing for sale today, sorry) and the GEOS booth got kidnapped by the AOL team for their deal. Nearly had to tackle the guy for it but I just knew that this was a "damn that shoulda worked" doomed product right then.

Edit: As I recall, they were far more interested in playing with their R/C blimp that morning than in talking to customers. I had a spiel all wound up about "I can put copies of your software in $X offices this month, if it works for our app: gimme a demo copy" but never got to deliver it.

>People becoming middle men, inserting themselves in supply chains and charging margin. Rise and repeat and you get more people just repackaging and charging more for what are simple products or things that people might want but do not need.

I understand where you're coming from, but I think you're misunderstanding why many people buy the things they do.

Most consumer purchases outside of food, rent and utilities aren't sacrifices made to made to optimally meet a physical need but instead a fun activity that the consumer engages in order to make them feel special/important.

You can see this in economic terms if you go to buy a second-hand appliance, for example. A current-model washing machine that costs $800 in store might cost $300 on Gumtree or Facebook.

Even accounting for the depreciation (which might be $50 on a year-old machine), less than half of the perceived value is actually in the washing machine itself. The rest comes from the luxury experience of purchasing a new appliance - looking up reviews online, comparing prices, convincing yourself that this particular model is optimal, going down to the nice store to get it, haggling the guy down and finally unwrapping your shiny new thing.

It may not be an optimal distribution of resources in terms of achieving mankind's greater goals, but most retailers are a luxury service just like wedding photography, fine dining or high-class escort services.

We exist to meet a demand.

Yes exactly. I'd endear a friend back and forth laughingly calling each other POS but in our context it was actually ok banter. We were even talking about what a good friendship we have so we can allow each other to use those words and cross a line without any real threat. Such are the contexts that are okay for this type of thing.
None of this is really what this service is intended for.

If you read the whitepaper, they list examples of what this would be useful for; namely, covering your own space with your own 5G for your own devices.

Deploy it in these areas instead of WiFi:

1. A stadium's remote ad/video/informational displays
2. A logistics distribution hub's stock-tracking robots/systems/handhelds
3. A corporate campus's smart displays or door access systems
4. Oil and gas drilling/processing sites's systems monitoring in remote, non-covered areas

So this isn't about creating a new provider in your local city, but rather about connecting your devices in your space in cases where WiFi is insufficient or overloaded.
> The question is, why those specific things?

Because for how important they have been over the course of history, a lot of historical analysis has closed its eyes to them.

It's like writing an analysis of bovines without any mention of the fact that they are domesticated. It doesn't mean that it's a bad analysis, it's a broad field, and anyone working in it can freely choose which particular subset of it to cover. But it is a notable omission.

The fact that this isn't included already is a bit of a red flag for me. It's a meal planning service that won't even give me the list of ingredients if I want to buy them myself?

Besides that, it does look interesting. I may sign up for a free trial after showing it to my wife and seeing if she'd find good utility in it. We've done grocery delivery for about a year, but we're on the verge of stopping. So having an exportable list of ingredients is obviously a must before I get too attached to your service.

Some feedback on the demo video from a potential customer: It moves way too fast. It's a chat based product, but things were moving around so much and so quickly, I couldn't read anything. A minute in, I had no idea what that product does. You have to give the audience enough time to read what's on the screen.

I had to slow the video all the way down to .25 speed to read that the bot asked the person to fill out their daily standup report.

A simple demo by one of the founders walking through how the product works would have been much better IMO.

Hope that helps!
> limiting it would have a chilling effect on startup formation

I'm okay with that. Startup culture is toxic, and the world would be a much better place if the only legal reason to found a business would be to make a steady profit selling your product. If your company only exists so you can sell it (as in the company as a whole) to someone else, your company shouldn't exist.
Is it not obvious? It's an apology that the book is not written with the lens of Critical Theory. This is necessary because the advocates of Critical thought deem any other "positionality" other than one that centers "marginalized" peoples by adopting that lens to be "problematic."

I get it, which is why I said I definitely wouldn't put it past Amazon to do something like that. But I also think that this kind of talk can actively hurt organizing efforts.

If I were someone on the fence about unionizing, and someone told me "you know Amazon changed the stoplight to prevent us from being able to talk to you", and I were to then look into it and find that while Amazon did change the stoplight speed, there's no evidence that they did it specifically to mess with organizing efforts, then I'd be pretty annoyed and write off the organizer as being full of shit. We need to stick to verifiable acts of union busting, especially because as you said, there are plenty of them to choose from, without rattling off speculation that can't be substantiated as if it were fact.

There is also no universally accepted definition of "being an asshole", but nevertheless you know it when you see it, right?

Maybe some fragile snowflakes should just get over their hysterical emotional need to feel comfortable, and focus on doing real work and getting stuff done. But by the same token, maybe some assholes should get over their pathetic emotional need to belittle others, and stick to what contributes to the work.

There is a principle for robustly implementing computer communication protocols called Postel's law: be conservative in what you output, be liberal in what you accept. I think the principle applies equally well to human communication protocols.

To summarize: A lot of correlations between negative things happening and increased levels of air pollution, very little of which is rigorously causally linked. Case in point:

> Stock market returns are lower on days with higher air pollution

I can't take this kind of article seriously. It presents a completely one-sided argument, and it's worded carefully so as to avoid outright statements of causality, but imply it nevertheless by pointing to a large number of weak correlations that together sound convincing. The overall conclusion was decided first, and the so-called evidence cherry picked to try and support it.

> Is that how this works?

Read my comment in the context of what it was responding to. You seem to have grossly misunderstood it.

> Yup. These devices are surely worse for privacy than iPhones which go as far as limit tracking at the OS level.

iOS devices do not support end-to-end encryption of message backups, do not support allowing a user to run apps on the device without telling Apple, and do not support getting a user's location without telling Apple. Despite what you may infer about each company's motives, each company's actual actions show a very clear difference in privacy on their devices. Apple is motivated to make money by any means it has available. If it can make money by charging users more for devices and violating their privacy by marketing their devices as being better for privacy, it will do so, and we can see that this is happening right now.

> Meanwhile the iOS 15 which was released this September is available on iPhone SE from 5 years ago.

So you admit an iPhone from 6 years ago is insecure. The fact that only recent devices from either vendor are secure is the same for both, so a user who cares about security will only use a recent device. The difference is that recent devices from Google are far more secure than recent devices from Apple.

> Imaginary non-existent phones.

I was just illustrating that there will be more options in the future. Apple knows about the security features offered by current and future devices but despite that hasn't tried to match those security features and instead contents itself with merely marketing security.

> No, you didn't.
