Spacemacs was what convinced me to switch from vim to Emacs. However, I found Spacemacs to be unstable and regularly had all kinds of annoying issues. This is quite some years ago, so perhaps things have gotten better.

However, having experienced Evil, Magit, general.el etc. there was no way back. For a while I used my own Emacs configuration that emulated many parts of Spacemacs, but was far more stable.

However, maintaining my own configuration became a bit of a drag. Every time you need another package, you have to figure out how it works and how it can be integrated nicely with Evil/general.el, etc. So, one day I decided to try Doom and I haven't really looked back. It has many of the perks of Spacemacs (sane defaults, space-driven shortcuts), but has been very solid and stable.
That ought to work, but the experience we are trying to emulate is that of using DataGrip, rather than psql.
Apologies, but the headline isn't drawing me in to read the article for a rather significant fact. Nearly all of human activity seems driving by short term considerations, why would government be so different, or at least why would it be surprising that it reverts to it if at one time it had a long perspective?

Corporations are notoriously short term, with stock and strategy and outsourcing. Humans are generally short term gratification seekers, like with food, drink exercise and tv/internet and shopping etc.

The headline is not enticing at all because it's saying "badly behaved dogs may bite people" not "man bites dog". It doesn't indicate any new, or interesting thesis, or at the very least a solid take on the state of badly behaved dogs. When rehashing an expected situation, the hook should give some hint of why this yet-another-take will be worth reading.
It's another zero tolerance fail, however I understand the conundrum and why they chose it.

But equivocating Trump and NRA flags w/ BLM and rainbow flags is a stretch -- they're coming from different places with drastically different intentions.

I loath the NRA but if they hewed to their stance in the previous century I'd even give them a pass.
is it really a zero-sum game though? I suppose I can't think of a large company that seems to really nail hardware and software but I feel it should be attainable.
My wild guess is that the “fly across the room” comes from a spasm in the leg muscles, so it’s more that you involuntarily jump across the room.

I'm not very smart and have 3 years of experience, but I got an offer for $265k recurring/$315k first year a few months ago for a full-remote position. I'm fairly confident I could have negotiated it up, but I ended up going with a pre-IPO company (because I didn't want to deal with their bootcamp process).

Do you have any experience with them? From this recent article it seems like they are having issues with scaling and staff turnover: https://www.vice.com/en/article/pkpp3k/psychedelic-telemedic...
> It’s a huge misconception that Meta is outpaying everyone.

Offers can be pretty specific. I might be worth 300k to one company but 600k to another down the street. The ranges can get pretty ridiculous at a certain point. levels.fyi can't really cope with ranges like that, especially if you're being grabbed for a more niche role/ background that they're particularly eager to fill.

What this means is that, no, you're not in luck. One company might legitimately pay you twice what the others will.

I don't disagree with you, a single server can go a really, really long way in scale before you run into problems. I know because I've done it a few times.

The problem to me isn't ability to scale on one server, it's the single point of failure. My biggest site is a wordpress box with one instance on a pretty big VPS. In the last year I've had several outages big enough to require a post-mortem (not complete outages, but periods with high levels of error rates/failures), and every time it has been because of internal data center networking issues at my preferred cloud provider (and thankfully their customer service is amazing and they will tell me honestly what the problem was instead of leaving me to wonder and guess). So the main incentive for me to achieve horizontal scalability in that app is not scaling, it's high availability so I can survive temporary outages because of hardware or networking, and other stuff outside of my control.
Not even a decade ago we were hosting our web-facing services and our postgres DB on the same server. A lot of smaller projects had their own db and credentials on the same instance. The idea of having to spin up independent DB servers for each one seemed wasteful to us, since back then each box would cost at least £10/mo or more on Linode or Rackspace and it meant more secrets to keep, more stuff to secure, more stuff to maintain.

It was only with the advent of heroku and the sudden shift to the cloud (AWS) that the DB stopped being software you ran on your box as a daemon, and became essentially a dedicated resource. Even for services running at a completely trivial scale.
Your solution works to a point, but it will not be as robust as SQLite. Its ACID powers are incredibly valuable in the real world where things fail or are unreliable. Also the ability to do complicated queries comes in handy sooner than you would think.

Of course you have to then mess around with SQL but you only have to write it once and encapsulate it somewhere and you're done.
> Maybe on vacation or a wireless connection that connected near there.

Bitcoin had been released a few days prior to that log file. So unlikely to be on vacation.

As I mentioned in another comment, the IRC seeding mechanism isn't necessary to use Bitcoin, and it was publicly released at the time, so no reason to assume this is Satoshi.
Candidat Nauk. As I understand it the Russian doctorate/habilitation is closer to our 'higher doctorates' (DSc/DLitt/DM etc.) which are rarely awarded and are mid/late career distinctions. There's no requirement for habilitation here, so PhD is almost always a final degree.
The liberals do it too argument is not entirely correct. Though both sides do engage in this kind of political theater, conservatives dominate and have disgust sharing as a central pillar of their politics. This is in part because the nature of conservative politics is to be more easily disgusted and to have moral judgements that instead of considering only harm focus on fairness and include purity, loyalty, and sanctity.

Some supports for this include The Righteous Mind by Jonathan Haidt: righteousmind.com, the Is disgust a "Conservative" emotion? paper: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31619133, and the study of conservatives on social media by Politico in cooperation with the Institute for Strategic Dialog: isdglobal.org, www.politico.com/news/2020/10/26/censorship-conservatives-social-media-432643. Outrage drives much media, but favors conservative views and outlets.
I mean "I'll have that large police investigation to go with my taxes" doesn't sound like a sane strategy..

The keys can move without the coins moving. Think of it like the ultimate Casascius coins. There's no way to know whether or not Satoshi cashed out. I can't find the thread, but I'm pretty sure Adam Back even said this on bitcointalk and said that that would be how he'd move the money if he were Satoshi.
Doesnt this mean that somewhere, buried deep in a a database, someone can run a query to see who had the IP address on that day, and assuming it is a private residence there is at least a chance that is SN?
Yeah. It's entrapping people who stole the wealth, not their fair share.
How is federation the solution? Federation isn’t free to setup or manage and so now you’re back to square one.

Oh, right. Makes sense thank you.

A step towards what? Even in the field of psychology* it's generally accepted that personality disorders don't resolve.

[*] Psychology as an analog to medical science is also a con job. Psychotherapies don't need to prove efficacy in clinical trials like drugs do. Whenever anybody does bother to do a study like that though (again -- purely voluntary) therapy never shows itself to be very effective at doing anything. But especially not for people with personality disorders.
> This can all live in memory, but needs to be persisted to disk on writes. I've reached for SQLite several times, and always come back to just keeping a struct of hashmaps[1] in memory and dumping JSON to disk. It's worked great for my needs.

I do a very similar thing for many of my at-home projects. They generally have a single-user, me, and it works great.
> Because parents are the primary stakeholder group for public schools, and elections provide a mechanism for a modicum of accountability.

Here in Germany, we have an entire bureaucratic apparatus (the Ministries of Education) to hold school staff accountable. For me, the US system is simply incomprehensible because it is plainly visible that the system can be commandeered by tiny minority action groups that have a lot of free time (i.e. conservative pensioners).

> It's not against any laws and has been selected by the administrative staff, so how would that situation be resolved without oversight?

Ideally, you'd have a set of policies that would put a serious limit on political, religious and sectarian propaganda materials... and in the case of disputes, it would be the job of the school administration (=the principal / vice principal) to deal with them.
I think Flickr just never figured out what it was for.

I got whiplash from their spastic business decisions. At first it was unlimited storage, and then it became paid storage. It was good for a while and I paid, and then they released the 1TB plan which made my pro plan pointless (and IIRC they promised it’d stay that way forever), so I cancelled the pro plan, and then the next year they reneged and decided to limit the number of photos and started deleting things. Back and forth and back and forth. The end result is I couldn’t rely on Flickr to keep my pictures or even tell me whether I should pay or not, and if so what for.

The other major issue IMO was back when Flickr suddenly decided that “Flickr is for photos” and started actively blacklisting all artwork from search, with no clear definition of the lines between all the massive gray areas this idea opens up, like manually modified photos, digitally modified photos, photos of art, and pure art. I was using Flickr for both pure photos, and mixed photo-art, and pure art. Having a bunch of my images pulled down with very poor justification was pretty demotivating.

I don’t think UI/UX is in the top 3 reasons why I stopped actively using Flickr.
Every study ever done on demand curves for literally anything shows that they consistently slope downwards, with the exception of Veblen goods, which kidnapped children most certainly are not.
I think this is a relatively recent shift - anecdotally I've heard that meta is getting a lot more aggressive comp-wise, especially at the more senior levels (E7+/L7+). I'm not saying there might not be other companies paying at that level, but it definitely feels like there's a shift happening there, partially because of their toxic reputation.

There's some external signals as well:

https://www.recruitingnewsnetwork.com/posts/facebook-changes...

I bring all this up because 1) levels.fyi is great, but it's lacking at the more senior PM and eng levels at most companies, and 2) it's a lagging indicator if things have shifted recently.
I'd say this is a very poor approach to deciding something because (in my somewhat uninformed opinion) it's very unlikely you'll have the same view of the world and what's important to you on your deathbed, though that obviously depends on what happens between now and then.

See https://www.science.org/doi/abs/10.1126/science.1229294
> Staff engineers at Meta get like $500/yr

This is incorrect and out of date by a significant margin.

Levels.fyi is a low-biased sample. People with top comp do not post it.

Talk to industry friends, numbers have gone up.
I think the usual approach would be to SSH into the server and run sqlite3 there. This issue [0] mentions some workarounds for connecting from DBeaver, which I assume would work for other graphical client software. I haven't tried those approaches, they seem pretty hacky and I imagine performance isn't great, but I guess that's to be expected given that SQLite isn't designed for that type of access.

Exactly. Anybody that mined those earlier blocks on the weird unknown hardware was also able to mine on known hardware under another identity.

so

A) Satoshi has other earnings, in bitcoin, that was held long enough to make Satoshi extremely rich, and sold under their normal known identity. While never needing to associate with the other identity.

B) The private keys to the bitcoin mined in those original blocks were sold for cash over the counter for very large amounts to funds with longer time horizons. Bitcoin can operate in temporarily trusted environments. Bitcoin price has tanked every time very old Bitcoin is transferred onchain, so there is no need to transfer them onchain. We would never know.
So I went to https://anarchapulco.com/ in 2018. There I met a guy who claimed to know who Satoshi is. He said Satoshi was from LA, and that the keys to the wallet that hold all those unclaimed bitcoins are buried in a backyard in LA. Would be worth billions now.

No idea if true.
Basically, it's important to recognize what you're actually measuring/capturing and store something maximally equivalent to that. Conversions may render figuring things out later impossible or very difficult.

If you care about a past moment in time as reported by GPS or a computer clock-- use a UTC timestamp.

If you care about a future time delineated by a precise interval from now-- use a UTC timestamp.

If you care about a future time expected to be delineated in a specific time zone, use a timestamp in local time and note the zone.

If you care about a future time in a customer's time zone no matter where they may be, store the time in an unspecified local time and the customer for whom the time applies. Etc.
Even the ones that "security scan" like Cisco Secure Mobility Client still use just a cookie to authenticate you and standard protocols for the VPN itself. You can usually log into the web portal, snag the cookie, and then place it into something like OpenConnect. The server side just looks for an "okay" from whatever application was used to run the scan. This can be easily fooled by OpenConnect, assuming you know what response it's looking for.
To save some people the trouble, here are some top-paying companies: https://www.levels.fyi/2020/

This was compiled in 2020 and Meta might move up the list in 2021.

It’s worth noting that Netflix does not have RSUs, and Stripe keeps appreciation of RSU value for itself. So if you expect Meta stock price to go up over the next few years (a big if), compensation at Meta could be higher in the long run.
You have to handle the merge conflicts yourself, see https://www.sqlite.org/session/sqlite3changeset_apply.html

So you need to be carful how you design your schema, but very possible.

One option is to use something like Yjs and a JSON column to get proper CRDTs for merging.

Good point. Though you can always link to .S for that last bit, right? I don't mean to tell you your business, I know you folks are doing much more intense stuff than I am. It doesn't surprise me that you'd know exactly what's keeping you from using stable.
I don't know that it's technically testimony, though.

If the cops seize your diary in a raid using a warrant, it can be introduced at trial. It's evidence, not testimony.
LastPass posted on their blog on Dec 28 that they identified a problem causing those emails to be incorrectly triggered:

https://blog.lastpass.com/2021/12/unusual-attempted-login-ac...

"However, out of an abundance of caution, we continued to investigate in an effort to determine what was causing the automated security alert emails to be triggered from our systems. Our investigation has since found that some of these security alerts, which were sent to a limited subset of LastPass users, were likely triggered in error. As a result, we have adjusted our security alert systems and this issue has since been resolved."
By top I mean top 4 or so.
> making the grid green

In my understanding, greening grids undergo multiple transitions simultaneously

* from centralized to decentralized

* from stable base load to hard-to-predict intermittent generation

* from unidirectional to bi-directional (prosumers)

Instead of having big nuclear (1.5GW+) or coal plants that produce 90% of the time, we'll have countless small renewable generation sites - a solar park with 200MW capacity already takes up a massive amount of space - but on average only produces 25% of the time, some biogas, a 300 MW windfarm, lots of batteries. Consumers and some businesses will produce electricity themselves using solar and might want to sell excess power back to the grid. Building out the physical infrastructure, software and financial system that make such a system run smoothly is an absolutely astounding challenge. We are simultaneously ripping out base load (in the coastal US and in western Europe nuclear is under threat, coal is being fought everywhere) while also demanding much more from the grid by switching all street mobility to electricity.

In the end, the goal is to have a cleaner and more reliable system that provides power at competitive prices - this is an absolutely massive and extremely complex undertaking with technical challenges, political backlash ("don't build wind farms in my backyard!") and geopolitical problems (where do all the solar panels come from? How do ye compete with countries that use cheaper power?) along the way.

I'm not buying that renewable electricity is necessarily cheaper (just looking at solar panels during sunny summer days does not count, we care about edge cases) and I think what you are proposing is very hard.

Here's an excellent talk about grid-scale storage and a comparison between conventional batteries and Hydrogen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Ykv_0N-bRc
The article notes:

---

Almost the only “scientific” reference that Erikson provides in his book is from a book written in 1928 called the Emotions of Normal People, by American psychologist William Moulton Marston. Moulton hypothesised that our behaviour is influenced by “psychonic energy” that is transferred through a web of nerve cells that he called “psychons”. The four personality types (yellow, green, blue and red) arise, Marston claims, as variations between different people in the structure of their psychonic network.

This “theory” is pure speculation on the part of Marston. There was no scientific evidence for psychons or psychonic energy in 1928 and there is none today. At the time of publication, the science of psychology was in its infancy and, like Hippocrates and Jung before him, he had created a theory without proper scientific grounding. Unlike Hippocrates and Jung though, Marston’s theory garnered little attention, and he left psychology. He later rose to fame though when he created the comic book hero Wonder Woman!

It might be helpful to simplify life by bucketing people into 'personality types' but there doesn't seem to be any more scientific justification here than one would find in Astrology or Harry Potter Houses (anyway Astrology is a based on a much larger heap of unscientifically collected anecdotes).
It doesn't really reward it. You're still claiming the dependent as you did the year prior to them being kidnapped. It's basically status quo.

Kinda ironic, given the topic.
Streaming used to be pretty good, when Netflix was basically the only one (with most content), but it's so fragmented now, that you need so many subscriptions that it's not cheap, and pretty annoying flipping between apps to find the show/movie you want to watch, then to find it expired last week, and you have to find out who still streams it.
Macy's seemed to slide significantly downmarket over the last few decades. I feel like, growing up in the 80s and 90s, in a place where they weren't, it was seen as an upper-tier product, a notch below Neiman-Marcus or Saks Fifth Avenue, but decidedly fancier than Penney's or Sears. Then they either went acquisition-mad, or started rebranding other stores they owned (not sure which) because a local chain became Macy's, and it never lived up to that hype.

Now they're doing their own take on Kohl's Kash, which just screams "premium retail experience."

Most relational databases offer ACID, for one thing.

And also a query language, which is easy to write and modify queries for, presenting a great benefit over writing large amounts of boilerplate code for looping over records and accessing the right indices every time (keep abstracting that and you'll end up with your own relational database system).

I often import data into SQLite just to work with it, without necessarily even an application in between. Depending on the nature of the data it's either that or Matlab.
