Is that still the case? I left earlier this year, but they had instituted a max on the number of reachouts a team/manager can make to minimize the "spray and pray" tactics and bootcamper overload.
No need. It's barely any data.
I agree, its really frustrating since that time and effort could've gone into messaging/communication features
even in cloud environments you control the environment by choosing to use that service.
I agree with you.

But I think GP has a point, he just picked wrong qualities... I believe in software engineering especially it is important to have empathy (to code in a way that others understand) and humbleness (to accept your limitations in a team setting).

Maybe those correlate with being a good person? I don't know.
Had been a die-hard Spotify user since it launced but was so aggrevated with podcasts being presented using the same method behind foie gras.

Apple Music stood out as the obvious choice (iPhone and OSX user) and I have not looked back since I migrated last summer. Their way of structuring also made more intuitive sense - can't really pin point why.

Also, a really nice plus that AM offers true lossless for free (yes, I have proper external equipment for listning and not just AirPods Pro lol).
I haven't tried this myself, but from what I read about it, it's basically a manual sync you have to do which isn't what he was asking about. GPM had a music locker feature, where you'd just upload it once to your account and then you could stream it from anywhere like anything else on the service.

YouTube Music and Apple Music have similar features but they're not nearly as intuitive or convenient as GPM's was.
I agree, but I also view it as the failure of Silicon Valley or even Tech industry to cater for majority of its users. The Tech unsavvy as you say. Both in terms of features and policy ( As in what is happening here ).
Which is state-mandated, not federal, and done by passed law, not by executive order IIUC. That's still a huge difference.
Have a look on Cloudflare Workers. They have KV storage. Also it's a good severless approach working on the edge.
Thanks! I was mostly talking about All About Berlin. My personal website gets a lot less love these days.

Smaller projectiles lose more energy to air drag.
Correct. Three other factors need to be balanced as well, although LOS definitely the big one. That doesn't make the PI correct, it doesn't even mean that the court will reach the same decision on the merits in Summary Judgement or after a bench trial, and it definitely doesn't make the PI decision the law.
A bit like Reader Mode in some browsers?
A student I taught in ESL had been working cleaning hotel rooms. She remarked that when she travels she always takes her own sheets, for she doesn't trust hotel cleaning crews to do a proper job. She quit the cleaning job for food prep at a restaurant, as being more congenial work and closer to home.
I dig it, very cool!
My worst tech interview experience
How do you deal with trademark infringement and phishing with Handshake domains? I'm sure some bad actors are salivating at the idea of registering trademarked domains on the blockchain so they can extort businesses anonymously.

No one using their domains to build things is going to want to buy into a system with no legal oversight. It's only squatters, flippers, and scammers that want that system because they can extract value for doing nothing.
I‘m using DDG most of the time but when I have to use Google hoping the results will be better, I try to specify words that need to be in there. However, the more niche your problems are, the less you will find.
The "probably not" was intended to be an answer to the question "would you support" - apologies, that wasn't clear.

My overall point is that details matter for good policy. A regulator having the power to ban a foreign merger for supposed anti-competitive reasons, but really political ones, is not the same thing as, say, a legislative body passing sanctions legislation.

In other words, just because the UK wants to ability to sanction a Chinese business does not mean the Competition and Markets Authority needs to granted the ability to interfere with Chinese mergers.
It seems obvious that website designers, and tools/orgs that provide websites to others don't have "small download size" or "fast" as project requirements.
Right, but I think its the high quality elastic bands that would be difficult to replace.
> Wow, just wow.

This is not conducive to honest conversation. I've been nothing but polite in our discussion. Your sarcasm here and in further responses isn't constructive.

> Managers earning $300K+ are not getting rich. Good. I guess it's all relative.

It is relative. If you live in San Francisco where the WMF is headquartered, this salary won't make you rich. I wish I could make that much money but given the role and the location, it doesn't seem exorbitant.

It might be instructive to look at how many people are giving money and not just the actual amount of money. I'm honestly saying that. I don't know the numbers because I haven't looked in years. Maybe there's more money because more people use it, more people find value in it, and more people donate. It would be an interesting way to slice the data. What's the average donation size? How has the geographic distribution of donations changed?

It seems like across all these threads, what many people, possibly including you, are responding negatively to is the language in the ads and not strictly the fact that the WMF collects money from people who willingly give it. I've already said that I don't care for the language either. I believe that they could be successful without it. Perhaps, not equally as successful but successful nonetheless. I shared that feedback when I worked there. I want them to appeal to the better angels of our nature.

Still, it's marketing and if my money supports the mission (the whole mission and not just Wikipedia), which by all accounting it does, then I'll continue to donate. The marketing, while undesirable, doesn't change their dedication to the mission.
And runs into a familiar problem.

Because a real world requirement in software development is the equivalent of, "I want to model my town".

And in townscaper I can't, because the presets don't fit my real world town.

So you then need to hire in a specialist block customiser who can write custom blocks for you to use in the modeller.

And then you realise you've just pushed the problem one step deeper.
The only way to prevent reflow is to give the browser your image dimensions or aspect ratio:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/aspect-rati...

Using a css flexbox or grid layout means you don't have to recalculate image div widths and heights when the browser viewport width changes, but you still need to give it enough information to back into the correct aspect ratio.

Also, using a srcset helps only load the necessary bytes, but means you'll need to either build the resized image on the fly (which is cpu-expensive) or prebuild them (which takes up some disk space).

In the interests of a performant UI, PhotoStructure extracts and remembers width and height of photos and videos during imports, but if you're only loading a couple images in a gallery, your could fetch this metadata on the fly as well.
Oh wonderful. Can I finally have something to explain non trivial Nix expressions to me? Love the ideas behind Nix, loathe the syntax.
Shame on Namecheap and Porkbun for scamming unsuspecting suckers.
Well, a data warehouse is one thing. I have heard of them just having a single live database that everyone hits. For all uses.

Edit: in contrast, I don't want anything about a user, except their id in a table for most features. Hearing of free for all's on data makes me question how they protect payment or just general private data.
5 letter tickers are frowned upon generally unless its a different share class or if its in some kind of credit/corporate action I thought. Like .E means Ch11 (iirc)
It might make more sense with the nVidia Jetson option. [1] The Jetsons are considerably faster than the Pi CM4 at both general computational tasks and GPU-focused ones (like video decoding/encoding and machine learning). I wouldn't be too surprised if four of those outperformed a comparably priced/power-hungry/sized x86-64 machine for the right workload. YMMV. (That goes for any of the three Jetson models they list.)

I'm also curious to see what the Turing TCM turns out to be.

Though the IO is still limited to the one GbE port + one PCIe 2.0 channel per device for anything you cram in there...and the heterogenous use of the PCIe channel may or may not match what you want...

Yeah I don't understand this mentality. You're paying for finished work not hours. People cannot seem to separate themselves from the hourly concept. If you want finished work faster then who cares about the hours?

All you're doing by requiring a certain amount of hours is ensuring the employee stretches out the time it takes to get things done.
I actually saw a job posting by them on SO awhile back for “part-time article writing”. My guess is if they legitimately hire people to do it, those people just end stealing content to meet their writing demands.

The world is full of smart, curious, active people who are neither brilliant nor delusional.

One problem we do have is that (in the States, especially), our culture is geared around individual careers.

Meaning we don't have a supportive culture for people creating stuff on their own - or really a strong culture of forming small supportive teams.

I do think the tech world (and, even if you really oppose it in general, the crypto world) has a lot of people forming teams to do cool stuff. So that's a culture which is a counterexample to what I just said.

Given such a generally atomized (or actively unhelpful) culture, you're more likely to have a few breakouts ("brilliant") and a lot of more normal folks who can't make it ("delusional").

Nevertheless, I think giving grants to free more people up to start figuring out how to do creative work on their own (or, better, form networks and groups to support them socially) is a very good start.

In other words, it's not about just sorting the wheat from the chaff - it's more about helping more people to start muddling their way to a happy and helpful place.

With that said, I'm glad you've surfaced this concern, as it is certainly a common one.
I don't use Apple music myself, but I've heard that it doesn't actually use your songs but uses song name matching which sometimes gives you censored versions of explicit songs. Is this true?

I remember when I used Google Play Music and it kept the AOL sound in "my" copy of a certain Tatu song, so that was definitely streaming the uploaded song.

I've thought about looking at those at some point, but it would be a paradigm-shift from my comfort zone for just getting code up on the internet (an Express server), and I don't care about performance for the kind of project I'm talking about. So that's better suited to a "learning project" than a playing/prototyping project for now
Always my goto for any batch image manipulation. The documented examples are varied and helpful, but it takes a little while to get used to.

Here's one use of it in the wild, which batch takes a path of GAN output files, each with a grid of thumbnails, and splits them into individual images. Gloriously easy. https://github.com/binarymax/matchbox-twelvy/blob/master/dcg...
I like the idea. I wonder how much "return" financial contributors would want. I'd suggest allowing financial contributors to split a set sum between recipients. I've often liked the idea "I'll contribute x amount to whatever, this is how I'll split it per month" and being able to do that easily.
They seem to work together.
My average personal income tax rate was well over 40% during my last year in Canada. (The marginal rate is/was 53.53%.)

Even a high tax state like California would have a five figure amount less owed in taxes than Ontario at certain income levels.
The libraries in my area must have skipped that generation of technology, but worked similarly. They all operated by handwriting your name and date (some stamped the date) on the card, before eventually switching over to scanned bar codes and no card.

I got a kick out of seeing who else had read a book, but it also seemed invasive. I'm glad that part has been phased out.
> Do people who are paid 10x necessarily consume 10x over a person paid minimum wage?

Even if their consumption was 1x, my point would still stand. Most people aren't earning minimum wage, nor are their salaries affected by minimum wage increases. This means that the cost of most products does not increase as minimum wages increase.

Minimum wage increase money comes from somewhere, and since ~everyone relies on minimum wage workers, that means that ~everyone pays for that wage increase.

If you take a dollar away from 100 people, and split half the resulting money between the 10 poorest in that group, and the other half between the next 20, it's a regressive tax, with a progressive benefit that has a net benefit for the poorest. Minimum wage increases work the same way. The rich lose very little, the middle class lose some, the poor win.

Are there better ways of structuring this sort of thing? Theretically yes, but practically, the rich are really, really good at protecting themselves from wealth redistribution. If you're going to hold the poor hostage to them, you're never going to get anything done.
Gzip does that, chrome mobile will proxy and recompress things in data saver mode, cloudflare will minify pages and scripts and recompress images and lazy load things for you if you let it.

I said I don't know which library would let me make C# method calls from a Java Spring runtime, presumably in the same process. Do you? Feel free to share a link.

> That's because someone set it up for you, not because it's faster.

Yes, the whole point was to come up with a concrete example for the sake of argument, and see how we can accomplish it in practice. We're not writing academic papers here, the fact that this functionality is widely available is a good thing.

One area where I'll disagree is minification. If you're gzipping (which you should be), try running your build without the minification step and compare the resulting over-the-wire file sizes. In my tests, the difference has been negligible. Which makes sense--you're just doing a limited text-based compression step before you throw the files at a real compressor, so it tends to be wasted effort.

You're certainly never going to enjoy anything like the big shrink of using gzip, optimizing images, or not importing a big library you don't need.
This is really lacking a discussion of games and how they cope. Especially with the problem of routing and solutions like Network Next.

ZFS Finds a Home at ZFS
No kidding; when he was cranking the final few inches of tension, I wonder if he realized what would happen if anything snapped: instant death was definitely one of the potential outcomes.
My dad (who was a bankruptcy attorney) has always been anti-timeshare, so I asked him why. Obligatory disclaimer that this isn't legal advice.

He gave me these reasons: they are expensive and charge you assessments every year which can be raised at any time (like a condo), but unlike a condo, you can't sell them because nobody wants to buy them. You can't even give them away, so you're stuck with them for the rest of your life. You can't even get rid of them by declaring bankruptcy.
I guess this means you should not use imagemagick in any process where the files (or other input) aren't trusted.

So you could use it in some typical dev workflows (or other business workflows) that are purely internal and maybe in certain non-internal processes where the inputs are strictly limited to trusted ones. But not, e.g., in services/apps that could process untrusted inputs.

(Seems like there are a number of leaks too, but since it's process-oriented, those probably won't be that hard to live with. They might be hard to notice normally.)

> did not show improvement in hospitalizations or deaths

Well, it's not surprising that there would be fewer deaths in children. We'd need a much larger study and I expect that this data will become available now that the vaccines are started to be more widely distributed.

> rather they relied on showing the jabs successfully produced antibodies (a much lower standard)

IIRC the study also found that the vaccine was effective at preventing infections.
If im going to be making code that needs to run fast, works on a bit level, and isn't exposed to the world, then I am picking up C++

It's more convenient than C. It's easier to use (at the cost of safety) compared to Rust.

Perhaps this will change if I know rust better. But for now C++ is where it's at for me for this niche.
