I think there's something else that's necessary that doesn't align well with the things in the article, and which is currently lacking in my current work environment, but which is kind of hard to describe succinctly.

Basically, my job requires using a lot of tools and technology and processes created by other people, but none of those tools are easy to use or well documented. In order to get stuff done you have to have a social network of people who know how to do the things you need to do, and know all the secret tricks. The right environment variables to set. The right arguments to pass to simulators. How to find the important bit of data buried webapp developed by people who apparently like to invent new words for old concepts. I get a lot of terse autogenerated emails that probably mean something to somebody, but not to me, and don't have human return addresses or really any way to discern the context of where they came from or why. A lot of tools use domain-specific configuration languages that are usually just python scripts that call a bunch of functions that are defined elsewhere and have no documentation.

These things might be reasonable in a startup with a dozen people, but we have over a hundred thousand. My opinion is that once an organization is a certain size, everything really needs to be written down and easily accessible. I shouldn't have to regularly ask people how to do basic things, it should be on a wiki. If it's complicated, it should be in a training video, or a user manual.
Explain the logic behind this.
This article does accidentally capture one of the major corporate problems pretty well. The conclude from their data that Toxic Workplace Culture is the biggest cause of resignation, and then they immediately suggest 4 short term things to try that don't relate to culture at all.

If you have a toxic workplace culture, the very first thing you should do is to start fixing your culture. This is very hard and not fast (as they acknowledge to be fair). One thing you can do though is to acknowledge it to your employees - "X, Y and Z is wrong and we're working to fix it". Nothing destroys morale more than employees being unhappy about a set of things and then management standing up and telling you there aren't any problems.
Apple ecosystem users are rich and can afford it.
Yesss, yesssss. We’ve largely “solved” capture. When batteries become efficient enough, storage and transmission will begin to collapse into the same. Let’s hope we make it to a world where self driving trucks are on a constant loop, delivering shed-sized batteries from massive solar farms to power neighborhood-sized grids, and only the last mile is traditional transmission.
They'll just host data related to their European customers in Europe*
You would have to eat multiple grams of CBDA/CBGA/THCA to get anywhere near the concentration required for this to work. Its not realistic not only for any medical or recreational user, but even difficult for someone who went out of their way to try and hit the necessary concentration
This does not break DNS, HTTP/3, whatever. It does not affect outgoing connections at all, only incoming connections from the WAN to your router.
No port can be used by any other computer or server (since all are required by Switch), and any port listening on your Switch will be automatically reachable by anyone which is a potential security risk. Does a Switch work if you are IPv6-only? Cause if it'd work with IPv6, a mitigation could be to only use IPv6. It wouldn't solve the security issue, but it would solve the problem of all (external IPv4) ports being used.
For me Firefox stopped loading content mid-browsing. I thought it's some network issues and just did other stuff, a while later I realised every other app works. So I just restarted Firefox, and it worked.

No need to change any settings.
You sound like someone who responds on message boards with ad-hominems rather than counterarguments, nice to meet you!
Telemetry strikes again.
I think that’s all that the court is asking them to do, for the last 1.5 years or so.
Because UPnP is disabled by default on a lot of routers.
That's the first interview. They usually test your ability to design systems and stuff in a second interview.
IPFS requires "pinning" content for it to exist, meaning you host it, whoever pins content becomes liable for its distribution, if no one pins it, it disappears. That's why you can't freely host things like child porn on IPFS.
The UK implementation of the WTR requires that (full time) works have a minimum of 28 days paid leave (including the Bank/Public holidays - of which there about 8).

Contract normally specify the paid leave excluding such Bank Holidays, so will be a minimum of 20. It is only the days above those 20 where the employer is giving one something extra.
There is data sharing, what you've done is given the US the ability to refuse access and additionally to refuse a visa - as they required you to self-declare and they consider it a fraudulent attempt to gain access to the US if you have not done so.

That they do not consistently enforce at time of entry is luck on your part in that entry instance, but either way they now have the ability to freely deny entry forever due to you not following their rules.

Sucks to be you now, the US system does not believe in rehabilitation and if you've been arrested you need a visa. You are not entitled to use the visa waiver program that exists between the UK and US and allows visa-less movement with only an ESTA.

If you want to visit the US in the future, or your career requires such visits... I suggest applying for a B1/B2 visa, if they think you're no risk they may even grant you a multi-year multi-visit one. If they think you're too risky they'll only grant a single timed visit visa, or you'll be fully declined.

a child born with a life expectancy of eighty years would be dead by age forty

I would not expect a child who drives 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — from birth — to live much past the age of forty.

If, on the other hand, you commute one hour per day for five days a week for twenty years that works out to about 217 days or just under 2/3 of a year of lost life expectancy. Is it nothing? Absolutely not. But it’s not as absurd as it would seem.

"Firefox has witnessed outages and we are sorry for that. We believe it's fixed and a restart of Firefox should restore normal behaviour. We will provide more information shortly."
GutHub support for reviewing multiple commits is basic (to be generous). The focus is all on the "PR" the entire diff and the description (that lives outside of git).

I think this is pretty harmful to having a useful git history and a conspiracy theorist would likely say that it is intentional lock-in.
My s/o and her sister (CS student) regularly play Animal Crossing over the Internet. I (and the SIL) wanted to curse Nintendo to hell and back for requiring users to essentially put their Switches available to the wide Internet (meaning, as long as the Switch is powered on, any RCE exploit on the Switch turns it into a full, unrestricted gateway into my home network!) simply because Nintendo doesn't want to follow basic Internet standards like UPnP or, heaven forbid, provide STUN/TURN proxies paid for by the Nintendo Online subscription.

Hell it took years for them to implement Bluetooth audio on the Switch, and that's output-only, no microphone. What stuff is their software division smoking?
Advertising the ability to store UTF-8 characters when you can do no such thing is a serious problem. Obviously you have to do whatever it takes to fix it, including fixing a deficient indexing implementation if necessary.

I believe the limitation you mention was fixed in MySQL 5.7, which would have been a reasonable opportunity to make "utf8" live up to its name.
My VPS costs 2$/month.
What is this needed for? I never set up any port forwarding and don't remember having any issues with network connectivity. But then again I don't play that much online.
I knew I could do it, I just wanted to make a demo of the whole thing to see if it would have worked in practice. But yes there's space for a lot of improvements like compression and lazy load with sqlite (cited in a comment)
It's pretty good advice, if you're Nintendo and spending a fortune trying to provide support advice to people with crappy router config/connections. Yes it's entirely likely to cause other problems - but probably going to get that switch working.

Other problems will go to other vendors - and if their advice stops your switch from working, that's on them.
I'm not a US person. Is it common to see a 50-100% pay raise on switching jobs?

Sure if you pay me twice my current salary, I will probably do whatever you ask me to without complaint. But around here such a big pay increase would be a fantasy.
Hard-wrapping is a mistake. It seems like you can keep making the line-length shorter to make it like likely to run into the double-wrapping problem but the best solution is not to wrap and let the viewer wrap at their preferred width.
I don't play Wordle but I guess that there are some infrastructure costs at least? Like a server on which it runs. So why should the game bring fun and joy to people, and bills and cost to the creator?
It is also a massive security liability as any vulnerable software running on the Switch could be used to compromise the console remotely and by extension compromise your home network since your Switch is likely connected directly on it.
This so much!!

I work with HVAC software and so many of our customers want important alarms on their mobile devices. They don't want it in email because nobody has notifications on for email so they want a text and they are aware of the carriers SMS gateway. Five years ago this worked ok but with the rising spam wars these similar alerts we send out get caught up in spam filters easily and customers blame us.

It is very simple to use something like pushover and API alarm delivery to them, and so much more reliable. Still it's shocking to see; wait that requires us to pay pushover? Nah, we'll take our chances with email@SMS for our multi million dollar chiller plant in our hospital alarm notifications.
Well, you could reimplement "absurd sql" over ipfs. Possible, but far from trivial.
How is life there?
Data centers cost money. They need incentives (read: high fines) to do that.
Sure, you can send a DNS query, but how do you propose to receive the response? The response is an incoming connection from the WAN to your router. (UDP doesn’t do sessions, remember.)

(I dunno, I’m not a network engineer, perhaps routers ignore the port forwarding and keep doing their normal NAT stuff in cases like this, but I would expect them not to because… well, you told them you wanted all the ports to go to a certain place, and nothing says UDP has to symmetrical anyway, maybe you honestly do only want tot send UDP from other machines and not receive it.)
Any unpaywalled version?

But not monetizing tells about character and motivation certainly.
I have never seen a charger that charges in pairs. Every charger I have ever used or seen has charged each cell individually. Charging in pairs is a terrible idea - the chargers should be returned as unsuitable for purpose.

I am astonished how many people prioritize the social/pub/restaurant/movie theater scene over the literal survival chances of millions of people. I guess I should stop being astonished and accept that people are driven primarily by their desires and self-interest. Cast them into the pit, I want a cheeseburger.
In this case, ESR was also affected.

It is very important to create awareness to all the billionaires out there that there is an alternative path to death or extension.
> The less cynical take is so many people abuse the system that we have put in anti abuse protection. However the end result is if you can figure out the system you are abusing it as anyone who can figure it out can get a real job and care for themselves

This is even more cynical, and just flat out wrong. Just because you have succesfully navigated the system doesn't matter you can hold down a permanent full time job. Also, "so many people abuse the system" is just nonsense. FullFact [0] estimates that £2bn was lost to benefit fraud in the UK, some of which is reclaimed after the fact. This is about 1% of the benefit budget, or 0.01% of the UK's budget, before any of the reclaimed amounts.

> Business and people will take the path of least resistance.

No, this is malicious compliance.
Is the problem that people are hopping jobs (this was always the case), or that they're exiting the industry? I thought we're talking about the latter.

I see a lot of software people quitting to take sabbaticals, to work on a project that might turn into a company, or going small and retiring. To my eye, you can't pay those people a 40% raise to retain them.
I'm arguing mostly that scientists should be open with the relevant data. I don't see what should be controversial about that. It's like there's an air crash and the authorities say we must not investigate and keep all documents confidential in case it upsets the plane manufacturer. It's not a good idea to do that.

Specifically EcoHealth Alliance who were the main US funders of WIV and main enthusiasts for gain of function research on bat viruses should publish their emails and data. They are a US government funded non profit and have no business obstructing all inquiries really.

I mean even if you are convinced the origin is natural and not involving a lab then why not be enthusiastic for data about lab research to be open so you can rule that out?
Yup. Got me a Racknerd VPS for fairly cheap and made it a PiVPN for fun, but things like Netflix don't work.
They seem to have no problem finding that kind of money for execs and shareholders.
Should we really be trusting a company that has taken more than a year to update their software with our data?
This is probably a good time to endorse the work of the World Beyond War.

And to remind everyone that militarism is a major public health threat, a significant cause of death, injury, homelessness, and disease, a completely preventable epidemic that consists of the large-scale killing, wounding, impoverishing, making homeless, orphaning, and traumatizing of people.

We need to get past the mentality of trying to DOMINATE every domain in the pursuit of the disease of nationalism.
I mean, literally the entire point of collective bargaining arrangements is that instead of negotiating salaries individually, the firm agrees to pay everyone a wage schedule agreed with the union. Hence the whole subthread starting with another poster talking about collectively negotiated pay bands for all staff having less scope for large pay rises than a firm's discretionary policy, as the union also has to look after the interests of lower performing workers who want to be paid the same or nearly the same as their colleagues. A collective bargaining agreement is by definition a more restrictive wage policy than an individually negotiated one.

It is not me "changing my argument" that you have spent several posts sniping at my arguments without apparently having the slightest idea what collective bargaining is.
If people want a cheaper but more complicated experience, they have the Android option
What kind of things did they do in filings that are often prosecuted as felonies? The article was hard to get through the speculation and a lot of sources consisting of links to their own tweets to find exactly what crimes are being alleged.
Thanks very much for sharing this - it has become one of my favourite articles! I especially like the idea of being able to replay a scenario just from the logs. Now to convince the rest of the team at work to switch to such a strategy.
Because that could be the actual physical reality, gravity or inertia might not fully work how we think it does, and there might also be some stuff we can't detect.

The objective should be to make correct predictions and understand how things actually work not for one side to win the argument.

In the emails linked, even Apple acknowledges that the 30% will be passed to the customers.

Dan Brown and Nikos Kazantzakis are novelists, not historians.
This is true even for a torrent btw. And (un?)fortunately you can distribute anything on IPFS as long as it's encrypted.
Moving from Western Europe to the US is such a QOL decrease that even for 500k, people are only going to do it if they are desperate.
No, you wouldn't. Quite right. In the same way you wouldn't use a car to cross the ocean to grandma's island or trawl for fish. Other solutions exist.
I know good engineers who don't get hired.

They are too different from the hiring companies to be of interest for them. Or too risky, because they are sick or from suspicious countries.

Technological + organizational debt?
Nintendo, despite making some of the first attempts at networked play in the late 80's and 90's, does not really understand the internet.

They don't understand a lot of things, even some of which they've lucked into, like the competitive Smash scene. Or fan remakes and tributes (of which Sega notoriously doesn't send their lawyers after).

But they still make some incredibly compelling games.
Ubuntu 22.04 to Bring the Desktop to Raspberry Pi 4
As far as i know, browsers do not set a receive buffer size for websockets, so if a client is not reading from the websocket fast enough, the kernel will expand the buffer until it reaches its maximum size, which on my machine is 6 MB. Say you are writing 1 kB/sec of data to this websocket. It will take ~100 seconds to fill.

That means that you won't even know that a client is stuck for a minute and a half (plus however long it takes to fill your send buffer!), and even if you then throttle back, the client has a minute and a half of high-rate data to work through before it catches up. If you throttle up again once you see that the buffer is clearing, and the client gets overloaded again, you will keep hovering around that buffer full state, and the client will keep reading significantly stale data.

To get a useful real-time signal from socket buffers, you need them to be really small. But to get nice smooth transfers of bulk data, you need them to be big, so that is what is the default.
They are talking about UDP, which is connectionless. There are just packets, going in or out. So you can send a DNS request, but the response will go to the switch, not to you.
> (UDP doesn’t do sessions, remember.)

Operating systems do. You can associate remote & local port-ip tuples with UDP just as much as you can with TCP.
Also it would be really nice bot network...
It is worth noting that the spaced syntax (`! github test`) has its own separate meaning with DDG: Go straight to the first result.
What? It's used by tons of legitimate applications as well. Not only malware benefits from being able to accept connections from the Internet. Games, torrents and other p2p services, etc.
What you do get (speaking here from my experience in Belgium) is that the top of the wage scale is invisible because past a certain tier everyone works as a consultant to avoid the high taxes. It is not unusual in senior tech roles to charge 1K+ per day or 20K+ per month, and pay a lower effective tax rate on that income, while having long term engagements with the same companies so that little time is lost to churn.
You just had your own "aha" moment :)

But, yes, I think you're correct. Conspiracy theories provide intellectual stimulation and that's part of a reason why they're so popular (apart from the community/belonging aspects of it).
They have another system called IPNS but unless it’s improved since I checked, it wasn’t very practical.

It's not common, no, unless you're going to a FAANG-like or extremely well-funded startup and are in a favorable negotiating position. The big numbers typically come from stock compensation; base salaries rarely soar.

I'd say 20% is more likely and considered significant.

The AAA versions of these are a godsend for my Bose noise cancelling headphones. I tried using NiMH batteries, but the headphones would cut out every time I shook my head or chewed something, because they didn't have a high enough voltage.
_only_? That’s, give or take, ⅓ of the full range. If everything in your network did something similar, you couldn’t have more than 3 devices in your network (and with 3, the stars would have to align for there to be no overlap between the ranges. If, for example, your tv needs 15000-35000, the largest contiguous range remaining would have about 15000 ports.

I'm sorry, but did you read the introduction of the article? And are you familiar with the history of Hawaii ( that they were an independent country and have culture and history of their own)?

Taiwan is the remnants of the losing party of the Chinese civil war, that ran away to the island of Taiwan/Formosa, and assimilated the locals. It's like if the Confederacy run away to Hawaii and genocided the locals. They're not a separate country legally, and don't even claim to be.
No one is going to pin encrypted data they do not understand. And IPFS doesn’t get users to seed random files, you only seed stuff you downloaded. So really it’s not much different to hosting it on a personal http server except any downloaders can also host.
Snowplow, also open source, has a comparison of a bunch of other open source analytics products for different functions:

What? Analytics is not a sideshow, it allows them to have clear and essential first-hand data on the popularity of sites, which is then likely used (with other factors) to drive Adsense auctions - their bread & butter.

If it were a free service "for the hell of it", Analytics would have long been discontinued.

With due respect, but that sounds like a worse UX than what they are implementing right now.

With the current update, 99% of private sites will keep working as before, while some people who fall into the edge cases will have to add a header.

With your proposal, you'd have to jump through UI hoops to view any site in a local network, wouldn't you?
