I don't think a lot of the points in the article hit home for me.

On one hand you suggest the culture of complexity is overwhelming, when just a few paragraphs earlier you suggest that sql-tuning and redis caching are how to deal with some of htmlx's problems with latency. That seems highly complex. You have to make deep changes to the back-end and data persistence systems to solve a front end issue.

It feels like the article is trying to say you shouldn't use javascript frameworks in a lot of cases, but then it advocates for using htmx, which is a javascript framework, in those cases?

In my experience the issues people have in front-end come from using tools and frameworks incorrectly, because they don't understand the tradeoffs being made -- so they don't account for those tradeoffs in a reasonable way that eventually comes back to bite the team. Handing people a new JS library that is seeming to intend we completely avoid javascript and therefore the library itself, creating an incentive not to learn how it works.
Oops, big mistake. I made it public now, thanks.
Yes, it requires parallel content. But I still think this is a better situation than a LaTeX source. While Pandoc can read LaTeX, it's limited to a fairly narrow subset. Anything you do outside of that will generate the raw formatting blocks the gp showed (and won't in general appear in any other format output). And you won't be left with any way to represent what should go in those places in HTML, ePub, etc.

To put it in a more programmer centric way, Pandoc allows you to have the moral equivalent of ifdefs instead of maintaining separate source files for each output format. That's a huge advantage when you want to keep the content in sync.
"We're designing telecom infrastructure" is an explanation. I really don't see why my comment is being interpreted as calling for every garage lab to be shut down. Are people disputing that military technology can be misused? That those dabbling in it should be accountable to the rest of society for taking reasonable steps to prevent that from happening? For at least not outright trying to pass it to foreign adversaries who intend to misuse it?
Sorry to hear it's been rough. But it seems you are getting traction? My philosophy is that half the skill in finding a job, (at least in my recent experience) is luck. Keep trying.
If users agree that the thing you have built is broken and want to opt into using a new less-broken thing, they can always do that, as would be the case (say) with software they download from you and are running on their computer (rather than software you host on your server, that you can change at will): you don't need the power to "reach your grubby mitts"--to put it bluntly--into their lives and fix what you built on their behalf in order for broken things to be fixed, and your definition of what is "broken" can easily be at odds with the user's preferences or even needs (which of course begs the entire question of how to avoid the incentive to be evil in the first place).
We have seen a massive increases in stock and housing prices all over the world. I don’t think that either companies have done multiple times better work over the last decade or that houses have improved several times. That should count as inflation.
i forgot to indicate where I am.
if I was in silicon valley it may be a bit easier to get references, currently i am in the rainforest on the big island and they sub out all their tech to the mainland here.
I don’t know. It’s not necessarily a bad idea because then you have a single audit point for all logs and can see the cost centralized in measurement tools vs it looking to be in the noise and never popping up unless you have particularly egregious hot spots.
Reminds me of the miniseries Maniac. It portrays an "alternate future" without Javascript, etc., where targeting advertising is in fact taken to these extremes, including the "Pinkertons" idea.

This honestly looks like a huge PITA compared to even the worst static site generator’s syntax. Is this actually supposed to be used as end-developer templates?
Well, yes, in the money area. It's generally accepted in finance that custody implies responsibility. It's taken a while for that to penetrate to the crypto sector. The earlier players, lacking assets, desperately tried to evade their responsibilities for other people's money. Now there are some players you can actually find and sue if they screw up.
the lack of empathy, and I'm talking about true empathy that results in action when it comes to healthcare workers is still incredible.

The amount of stress physically and mentally that nurses and doctors have been put through, by being exposed to covid themselves from the beginning, being separated from family, seeing people die every day is nuts.

And the amount of people still who basically talk about this like "oh the hospitals aren't even full yet, it's not that bad", and have done so repeatedly really is just plain sad. Also goes for the food workers and delivery people and anyone else who keeps things running.
Those people likely barely understood many concepts. I’d never think to seriously go to an Apple centric bigger forums. Unless it’s specifically geeky and into being able to manage things with automation, scripting, CLI, power apps, etc, Apple communities generally give very little and weak info.

Those pseudo power Apple Mac users are not that far from average users.
Because we live in the society, not in vacuum. As pandemic has proved to even the most individualistic societies you're actions do have an impact. It doesn't have to be direct.
It's not about your freedoms, your precious beliefs and desires solely. You're part of the machine like it or not.
There is no conspiracy. It is in our best interest to have the most educated, stable, productive people possible in our society for our collective well being. While at the same time not forcing people to work or study and giving them the ability to make their own choices. It’s a super hard optimization problem that we’re constantly trying to find better solutions to.

To think someone is plotting to ‘keep people down’ assumes there’s some super smart god like person out there pulling all the levers and playing 5 dimensional chess. I guarantee you there isn’t.
obviously i havent applied enough. it is usually about 10 per month.
It reduced (did not eliminate) the incentive to post spam links to message boards.

What will web3 do to reduce this incentive.
> Taken to the logical conclusion freedom of association would allow one to discriminate against who uses your business or private property. In the libertarian tradition these businesses are usually described as being at an economic disadvantage to businesses willing to cater to a wider audience.

Which is completely ahistorical and demands ignorance of MLK, a man for whom the USA has a national holiday!
Initially, the DNA is brought near the pore through diffusive (brownian) motion + any small attraction it'll have to the membrane. Close to the pore it uses a combination of the electrophoretic and electro-osmotic effects to draw the DNA molecules through. The application of an external magnetic field will cause the charged DNA molecules to migrate along the field (electrophoresis). This is independent of the fluid, and happens to any ions under voltage. The electro-osmotic flow, on the other hand, is a motion of the fluid itself, pulling the DNA molecules along with it. EOF is a really interesting phenomenon which is caused by the interaction between the surface chemistry (vis-a-vis charge distribution) and the concentration gradient of charge carriers in the fluid. I'd recommend Fundamentals and Application of Microfluidics by Nguyen et al if you're looking for a good primer on electrically induced flows in microfluidics.
Awesome. I never thought about it that way. Perfect counter argument to people who act like we're stealing from them when we block their mind hacking attempts.
Any invasive software like this should be run in a virtual machine and then nuked once you’ve finished with it
Debugging Unaligned Project Teams
I assumed kids started using internet at 2 these days, based on my anecdotal data, and assuming apps like Khan Academy Kids and PBS Kids count. Or, unfortunately, YouTube.
I'm not sure where you live, but in the US, the government has done a terrible job with capital allocation and for every dollar given to the government in taxes what % do you think goes to helping those in need who deserve the help?
What? I don't see anything similar being said about phones.

"What do you mean you don't use a phone? That must be hard."
Omicron Is Pushing America into Soft Lockdown
There's four actors here. Victim, Criminal, SendBank and ReceiveBank.

Criminal initiates $X on behalf of Victim (or tricks them into doing so) using SendBank. Criminal then gets the money at ReceiveBank and usually withdrawals it before it can go noticed. Criminal therefore commits fraud against victim.

Since both banks are in the interest of keeping Criminals out and Victims (well just normal person/biz), they usually offer the ability to safeguard the Victim against financial harm, usually by paying the Victim money their money back and eating the cost. Hence why KYC is so important on both sides.

This is all conducted through a trust system that crypto fans love to hate because it's "centralized". AFAIK no crypto coin offers this ability because the trust system is inherently built on the idea that no person would ever be tricked into sending money to someone they didn't intend to, which is, ummm a downright terrible assumption about real world behaviors.
That certainly was not true pre-omicron. Here I’m the UK even with Delta, widespread early vaccination made a huge difference. Life here largely returned to normal for much of the past year with very low hospitalisation rates. It saved huge numbers of lives, with a relatively open society.

Now with omicron it’s spreading so fast that even though it seems to be less likely to put you in hospital, it’s infecting so many people the numbers in hospital are shooting up anyway. Vaccination is still saving huge numbers of lives here, but we are phasing in some limited lockdown rules as they become necessary.

On a personal note I caught the virus 2 weeks ago. I was pretty sick for a few days, but shook it off after a week thanks to being fully vaccinated. The rest of my family had it too and my reaction was the worst. I hate to think what it would have been like if I hadn’t had the vaccine working for me as well. I’d probably be dead.
Chinese scientists develop AI ‘prosecutor’ that can press its own charges
There can be multiple vectors sustaining COVID - the unvaccinated and anti-maskers certainly don't deserve all the blame, but they're certainly not helping either and are likely accelerating the speed of the spread and increasing the opportunities for more evolution of the virus.
Isn't that basically how society works? Social pressure encourages groupthink.
if anyone wants a lead engineer on a X-style project, something that is out in the fringes, a project with legacy code, unusual multimedia/3D projects, ATE (automated test equipment) projects i may be able to help you

also can help in most multimedia projects involving studio equipment, audio sampling, video processing, MIDI software, and old-school graphics.
Most of those skills are still applicable today. I'm gonna go against what others are saying, I don't think you need to upgrade anything. I wouldn't apply to web companies unless they need an iOS dev. Objective-C is high pay but you should stay in the music industry if that's what you like. It's not like you only know ASM or COBOL.

Metaverse Land Rush Is an Illusion
Someone else already mentioned it but I also think it is a good idea to look for University IT/DevOps positions, or maybe scientific computing, etc. They are generally much more interested in reliability over risk and are much happier with someone who will hold things together for a few decades than someone who will bring in fads and then get hired away.
Looks really cool. Would love to read a transcription of the conversation if you have one. Otherwise will check out the audio later.
How much USD$ or equivalent is moved into cryptocoins and how much of that amount is considered fraudulent? Until you have numbers there, then I simply don't believe your premise.
You avoid the problem with medical debt, to be precise.

You cannot really avoid the fundamental constraints - anywhere in the world, there are only so many doctors and so much money available for treatments. IDK if USA has a shortage of doctors, but plenty of European countries do. A country like Romania just cannot give its doctors big enough wages to stop them from seeking employment elsewhere, where they will get five to ten times as much (UK, Germany, Switzerland). As a result, local hospitals are seriously understaffed.

Where I live, having personal connections to good doctors gives you an advantage - you will be examined and treated faster. Then there is outright nepotism.

The outgroups are different than in America, but there are always people for whom the system sucks.
So you are saying there appears to be a way (likely nontrivial) that Tumblr could adopt (maybe same as reddit) to keep both advertisers and community happy?
Well Western cultures predominantly assume tabula rasa, and these studies largely undermined that assumption, so I think that's a sufficient answer.
Can’t you set it to not do this. Even more cant you pin packages to not update at all.

I don’t think my set up upgrades everything. I install stuff still but haven’t upgraded anything in months possibly. Brew outdated command shows dozens and dozens of packages fhat need to be upgraded.

Not sure what I did.

I don’t know why everyone loves one package manager that’s also everything for your OS like typical Linux package managers. Things get pretty chaotic. I’m not saying homebrew is the solution. Just Linux package managers seem overhyped
The problem with getting the remaining communities connected is that there are no AOL CDs left, and even if more could be supplied, devices tend not to have CD drives.

You might also like Matt Ridley’s The Rational Optimist (2009). I read that first and was struck by his many insights into how human society has prospered by collaboration and exchange. Reading Sapiens after that book gave me the feeling of reading a somewhat watered-down and much more pessimistic take on the same millenia-long story.
On the topic of wheat for eaxmple Ridley, who is originally a biologist, tells it as how humans created wheat for our own benefit - modern wheat simply does not exist as a wild plant. (Have you ever seen a wheat weed?)
Sorry, missed this question! We are (like many/most?) using OrCAD for schematic capture and Allegro for layout -- which is to say, Cadence and Cadence.
Whenever companies lay off a significant amount of people they have to be very careful they don't fire more older people or they run into problems with Dept of Labor. Most FAANG big tech hasn't had to layoff much if ever yet but it's true for older companies like Sun, Cisco, Yahoo etc.
This is a demanding thing to achieve.
The road to hel is paved with good intentions.

Philospy spends a lot of literature on how to tell if what you are doing
is making the world any better?

History, current history is filled with examples of "making it better" and
doing enormous damage.

Is your intent when you do the action what is important?
Or is it how your action is received in the moment?
Or what a spectator might conclude.
Or is it the eventual consequences of your action that is important?
Or none of the above.

Your intent is selfish.
I want to be a person who makes the world a better place.
Do you do so in a vacuum?
You do the act, and then never ever speak about it to anyone.
Or is the real goal the adoration of those you "tell"?
(Innocently and self deprecating of course)

If you were (or are) an evangelical Chrisitan, sharing the word of God,
and saving souls would be the greatest good you could ever accomplish.
"Today I shared the Word with 5 people. "

Those 5 people may have found a person rambling about God to be
unwelcome. Annoying. Rude.

Or maybe one was in a deep crisis, and he was moved and accepted
Christ and his life took meaning from it.
His life got better and afterwards he kept a good job, got married,
had wonderful kids.

Or a person who was rambled at has terrible trauma from childhood
from being sexually abused by a Catholic priest and this forceable
reminder brings him over the edge, and he kills himself 20 minutes
later in a public toilet.

Maybe one is a woman who was viciously demonized by protesters for
having an abortion two weeks ago.
This most unwelcome vocal assault by another right-wing misogynist
is what finally drives her to take a stand and gets involved in
politics, changes her major to political science and many years
Later she is a senator who casts a deciding vote in something she
think is wonderful

Did this evangelical guy make the world better?
> Some clever abuse of the query planner output quickly gives us an estimate.

Tldr: They estimate counts by parsing it out of the query plan but get an exact count if the estimate is under a threshold.

Clever! But it makes me nervous. I was expecting it to involve HLL or CountMinSketch or something.
Since I presume steel is a more or less uniform substance compared to biological processes, why is metallurgical research still more or less experiment first?

Shouldn't it possible nowadays to bruteforce a search for an alloy of any given properties using computer simulations of the atomic or molecular structures?
I can relate. I don't enjoy the "pop quiz" type of interview questions, asking weird coding questions that never come up in the job. If it was just to find out how extensive my knowledge is and use it to converse on topics, that's fine, but they (Ama$on) use it as a all-or-nothing filter. One miss and you're out. We all have gaps.

I did a HMW extraction kit on the DNA and used a gel to estimate the volume of HMW DNA. Yes, you need to be able to run a gel, but I'm not sure what the expectation is from folks; that you just place a random piece of non-sterile tissue on a chip and have it do the extraction, sequencing and assembly? That seems like an unrealistic expectation.
Telegram? Where are you? Telegram is pretty specific for diverse groups of people to all be using. I didn’t know telegram is that popular anywhere just generally pretty popular. And then very popular within some niches like crypto.

Or maybe they're average, but you only see the ones where DDG fails.

Next time also try Yandex and Baidu.
But you don't need to pull 500k/y to end up with >1M$ after 12y. Just compound interest will get you there rather quickly if you save half of your 105k median dev salary. Of course doing so isn't comfortable, but I'm sure you can agree it's doable.

Also while 500k/y is a stretch and usually occurs due to stock appreciation (not salary), you can reasonably assume that landing a job at big tech will lead you to a 300k total comp within 12y. If you care enough to play the career game.
I was a Linux sysadmin and was quitting my job to go to college. I had been using Linux on the desktop since 1995. I thought I'd buy a laptop, and why waste my time trying to worry about hardware compatibility with Linux when I already have a Linux desktop?

I figured, "let me just buy a Windows machine so I can easily play DVDs and use Office". When I stepped back and realized that was my only criteria, I thought, "why not try a Mac?"

I brought my white G3 600mhz iBook to (2002 tech company) work shortly before starting school, expecting people to make fun of me for buying a Mac ("everyone" used Linux, but Windows was begrudgingly tolerated in the community) and EVERYONE was interested in OS X.

I used that iBook for tons of work stuff in my last couple of months. Popping a serial console on SunFire 6800s, directly connecting via ethernet to them and forwarding X Apps to the Mac, etc. It was a revelation.

Not only that, but you could actually close the lid, put it to sleep, and the battery wouldn't be dead when you came back from lunch.
Java has actually had this built in for a long time now. A SecurityManager allows you to restrict access to things like the filesystem and the network (and whatever else you want). I have never seen it used in a real codebase.

This "you're not special, so just live within the bounds everyone else lives in" thing seems like a depressing spin on life.

I agree that there's a lot of rules that everyone should follow and philosophies that most would benefit from, but... everyone's life involves situations and relationships that are unique and singular and special to them. For example, most adults are taking care of a family that is very special to them. "Take care of your family" is maybe not a special, unique purpose on its face, but it is special to each person who is doing it.

While it's perhaps true that few people are called to live lives that would look utterly unique and remarkable in an autobiography, I think we should take care not to define out of existence the inherent uniqueness and singularity of purpose of each life.

What I worry about is having this data laundered through a couple of vendors.

"How could we know our vendor's vendor was using genetic information in their proprietary risk score?"

"How could we know our client's client was using our score for life, health, or auto insurance/employment/lending/etc decisions?"

It's a "can't unring a bell" situation and the gaps in the regulations and the incentives for bad behavior are enormous.
Its also worth remembering that the FAA insisted for years and years and years that any sort of cell phone / iPad / laptop use in flight would cause a accident - with the same sort of scare tactics as used here. They eventually backed off of that and insisted it was only during takeoff and landing..

This playbook has been run before.
