> But what's the difference between an async function returning int, and a function returning `impl Future<int>`? If there's no difference why do we need the async keyword?

No difference, but while the feature was being explored early users found it simpler if they didn't need to think about lifetimes on the returned future. Sometimes sugar is just sugar; same reason that `for` loops exist instead of just using `while`.
> Sorry, but you don't own a spot just because you shoveled it out.

That is correct! But the city does own the spot, and it has rules about parking on it. Those rules apply equally against everyone, in principle. But they will never be enforced spontaneously. Someone has to complain, with some valid basis. It exists for these kinds of nuisance situations.

The city is very sympathetic to the concept that some uses of city property (in principle available for use to everyone and anyone) may be annoying to nearby residents.

For instance, some residential streets that are close to transportation amenities or shoppping/business areas have permit-only parking. Only people who can provide proof of residency on a specific street can get a permit to park there; anyone else is in violation, subject to ticketing and towing.
one of the more sobering things i've read with regards to the current situation is that everything we associate with polio is actually "long polio". and the long covid data is pretty sparse right now.
My guideline was that the probability that they would share a class with someone with the same name was below some threshold. This kept things in perspective since "in the top x in popularity" wasn't very meaningful to me. And if it was on the high side, I wanted to see it trending away from popularity over the last decade.

You're right, but this is why the US is more likely to bonk them over the head, admittedly this is less of a threat now w/ Biden in Office, but still a threat.

TikTok's biggest short term threat is probably the CCP, which has been increasingly taking a hardline approach w/ their own tech companies (think Ant Financial, JD etc).

> Based on our investigation we have been able to reproduce the issue under a limited set of circumstances. We believe the issue is only present on a small number of devices with the Microsoft Teams app installed when the user is not logged in, and we are currently only aware of one user report related to the occurrence of this bug. We determined that the issue was being caused by unintended interaction between the Microsoft Teams app and the underlying Android operating system. Microsoft has collaborated closely with Google to resolve this unintended interaction.

I don't think Microsoft should be doing the fixing. If an app can break 911 call functionality in Android, it's a bug in Android.

> I was running www.Photopea.com with 10M page views a month for $40 a year.

Why not go back to the $40/month plan and spend $20/month on Cloudflare Pro?

I was able to load photopea.com in about 5000ms, uncached. That's not terrible, but it was slow enough that I wondered for a few seconds if the site was broken. A CDN would cut that load time massively, and it wouldn't even be a net cost increase because you could downsize your server.

Yep, it looks like they have a kernel module for handling the Mach subset of syscalls.

> Emulating XNU system calls directly in Linux would have a few benefits, but isn't really workable. Unlike BSD kernels, Linux has no support for foreign system call emulation and having such an extensive and intrusive patchset merged into Linux would be too difficult. Requiring Darling's users to patch their kernels is out of question as well.

I wonder what such a patch set might look like.

Being taxed a certain amount of silver is just as much of an issue of levels as being taxed a certain amount of wheat. Assessed taxes were much more expensive than the farmers were able to pay. It doesn't matter what currency the taxes are assessed in. What matters is that the amount is too high.

Compare what the farmers said their problem was:

> A farmer identified as "Plough Jogger" summarized the situation at a meeting convened by aggrieved commoners:

>> I have been greatly abused, have been obliged to do more than my part in the war, been loaded with class rates, town rates, province rates, Continental rates, and all rates ... been pulled and hauled by sheriffs, constables, and collectors, and had my cattle sold for less than they were worth ... The great men are going to get all we have and I think it is time for us to rise and put a stop to it, and have no more courts, nor sheriffs, nor collectors nor lawyers.
Yes, you could. The last time someone I know spoke to them, the standard enterprise plans started at $5000/mo and got you some very nice freebies. Cloudflare's also announced managed WebRTC APIs (in closed beta) which look promising for creating meeting rooms ala Zoom.us. I imagine, these are already available to tech-shops on enterprise plans.

Though, mux.com is decent too, from what I've heard; for certain workloads, LiveStream and Vimeo might be cheaper.

There's Peer5, PeerTube, and BitTorrent in the P2P space (among many such solutions).

Having recently moved to New York City, that part of the article hit home for me. NYC is so loaded with talented, successful people—living sometimes literally on top of one another—that it really makes you push yourself. For example, I attended a jazz show one night that included performers on "classical" instruments. After the show, I was chatting with the violinist (discussing whether, and how, improvisation was taught to "classical" performance majors). After a nice chat, I Googled her at home and discovered she has a PhD, two Grammys, she's been on the Tonight Show several times, she plays with Yo-Yo Ma's Silk Road ensemble, and toured with Stevie Wonder. And she was far from the featured performer; she was just a "hired gun" for that evening's gig. I doubled down on my musical pursuits immediately.

ok, in my comments I glossed over the fact that you specifically argued about the interview notes a bit, which maybe are not as clear as other data points.

But that on the other hand that applicant data is personal data that falls under GDPR and that applicants can request their data is quite obvious, and that notes contain "personal data" about a person is also established, so you'd really need a specific argument why they don't fall under the access request requirement.

At least in the German case law I've seen, it's by now established that internal notes etc about a person also count specifically for the data access request - a prominent case was someone suing their insurance company for all internal records.

The US has so much catching up to do on EVs. Europe is much further ahead. One of the things holding the US back is the continuing lack of a common charging standard.

CCS Type 1 Combo is almost there as the standard. All other manufacturers have switched to CCS in the US (including Nissan). All that remains is for Tesla to switch.

Tesla switched to CCS in Europe a long time ago:

And Tesla has (finally) started to open their European stations to all makes:

https://www.theverge.com/2021/11/1/22757159/tesla-supercharg...

Common infrastructure is everyone's interest. Instead of more dumb, brand exclusive, closed infrastructure what the US needs is for Tesla to join the rest of the industry.
Interesting list. 2021 brought back a desire of using fountain pens. It also found me splurging. I like heft in pens. I have a Cross and a german brand - from my ex-father-in-law. That got expanded. I prefer the german one (can't recall brand at the moment, as it's in my truck) for day to day use. I picked up two Visconti pens. The Homo Sapiens is amazing. My other one was a "oh I did actually order that" over the top pen. It's beautiful, but super austentatious and thankfully was well below cost.
This is one of the benefits of Apple's App Clip Codes (https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guideline...)

Obviously that can be construed as a down side as well, and the app store isn't immune to scams, but it does give one layer of effective gating
I'm okay with the collateral damage this would cause.
Corporations like AdRev have as their whole business model trolling small content creators for copyright. Every channel on YouTube beyond the smallest seems to have the same story - corporations claiming that content created by the channel belongs to them.

Even the "legitimate" claims assume guilt on the part of the creator and disable monetization immediately until the claim is resolved. Then there are the false claimants, like third world channels copying popular videos from successful channels, then either appending a tiny "comment" section or flipping the video side to side and claiming it as their own. Heaven help the channels who then ask for credit or revenue from their own stolen content.. the thieves use the copyright claim system to abuse and torment the creators they stole from.

Until Youtube/Google are forced to disable their cheap AI based content claim system and implement something smarter that does the job right (and which must involve humans), small creators are going to suffer. Youtube holds a de facto monopoly on its niche, it needs to be forced to play fair, and either regulated or broken up.

It's all perspective, and this simplification isn't accurate.

It's "I don't want to fire you, but you need to fix these things. Let's put this in the books so there's no disagreement over whether you're aware, and what you need to do."

In most cases at-will employment means the employer/manager can fire a person, so if that was the only thing going on, it would already be done.

They stated they knew from the scientific literature that anticoagulants were beneficial so I'm assuming they werent referring to long covid but to just general efficacy against covid, because long covid hadn't been discovered yet.

In that sense they were ahead of the curve because its looking like it is helpful with long covid as well, which is great news!

The CCP is taking a hardline with companies domestically. There's a huge push to stop corrupting the youth, treat data responsibly, etc.

The CCP gives 0 shits what those companies do to the rest of the world, and are probably thrilled if TikTok causes political and social chaos in the US.
I've done a fair amount of startup interviewing, and my biggest takeaway was that I had no ability to discern if someone's resume on its own was fluff or real. And often, there seemed to be an inverse correlation between how impressive someone sounded and their actual technical abilities. It's possible I'm just missing some techniques or judgement but I don't think so.

Here's what worked for me:

1. Get a list of the top 1000 names.

2. Remove the top x names.

3. Randomize the names.

4. Go through the list slowly, say them out loud with the last name, and eliminate names you 100% know you won't choose. If you find yourself pausing on a name wondering if you should keep it, then keep it for now. Keep an open mind.

5. If a name sticks out, put a star by it.

6. When it starts getting too monotonous, then stop and pick it up later.

7. After you're done, randomize them again and make another pass.

8. Repeat until you have a small list, and share them with your partner.

Note: there are good names outside the top 1000, too.
I like the Jetstreams, but had a few black refills that I had acquired over a few years in 0.5 and 0.7 prematurely stop flowing.

Is there a list exposing such assholery so I can boycott accordingly?
Yes... content providers like the MPAA, RIAA, and other corporate organizations. Essentially, the Youtube system was permanently wired to favor the same set of interests that have corrupted the US copyright system.

By automating their claim system and related customer service, Youtube achieves a high success rate for handling claims "properly" from the top few creators as organized by revenue. They probably give satisfactory service to the people who generate 90% of the money for the platform using their automated claim system, which is cheap to operate.

In other words, their system handles the people who make them money and screws over anyone who's not big enough or corporate connected. People who don't make them enough money don't matter.

Exactly. A PIP is "I don't want to fire you, but you gotta fix some stuff."
Complex environments like Google need to build and retain knowledge. Firing for zero cause is just...well, we have serious things to do, and that's just dumb. I've never seen it.

A PIP isn't just a closed two-way conversation between a report and a manager. In every case I've seen there are multiple eyes on a PIP and revisions to them.
