In practice what happens in this case is that the query slows down over time, often days or weeks after deploying the thing that makes the query worse. It takes time to fill up the data that slows things down. This gives you plenty of time to monitor and take action. If it does happen more quickly than that (e.g. if a table starts getting filled for the first time, statistics can be off) then rolling back is easy.

But if the query planner decides to screw up your query plan it happens instantaneously and there's no possibility of rollback - only emergency deploying code fixes to try to tweak the query. In most OLTP use cases, you almost always know exactly how a query is supposed to execute, so always using index hints is totally reasonable to prevent bad query plans.

Basically, you breaking your own query with bad hints usually breaks things a lot less and at better times than the query planner doing it, and is usually easier to fix too.

>Pete Buttigieg

>replaced the Secretary of Transportation for lack of confidence in his ability to get anything done?

Well he announced a 6 month paternity leave pretty much immediately upon being appointed to a cabinet position (where tenure tends to be 1-2 years).

So between that and having roughly zero knowledge of transportation issues to begin with, his lack of "ability to get anything done" should surprise no one.
Also with their packaging tech (EMiB and Foveros) they can mix and match chips from different fabs - ie, combine P-cores from TSMC fabs with E-cores from their own (possibly older) fabs. Alder Lake is the first real stab at the "chiplet" architecture, and it seems to be a very good outing. Future iterations will only improve, and at Intel's purchase scale economics they'll be able to manufacture chiplet designs that match market needs for the highest margin or pricing pressure to squeeze competitors, if needed.
I would rather think machine translation and learning foreign languages should be better in general. But that is probably a C2-level subtlety, so if a non-Russian was writing that I could understand.

I imagine a situation: EN copywriter asks a RU colleague how to say "Goodbye", gets "Do svidaniya" as a transliteration without a context, and just puts it there. Which sounds like farewell.
From someone who has extensive experience in the criminal justice system, I wonder how much of this is because they have no evidence of theft by the persons they arrest? It's one thing to arrest someone who is clearly on your property* and the officer can testify they found Person X where they shouldn't be, but unless the officer sees X pulling a package out of a railcar and can specifically identify them, it gets tricky to find them guilty of the larger crime at trial.

Almost certainly though, multiple misdemeanour convictions for trespassing are eventually going to elevate to a felony. It is possibly still worth it though. Having been locked up I know many people who would commit what most people would consider petty robberies and just suck up the months and years of being locked up. People become inured to incarceration. The first time you're locked up you're scared and you don't know what's going on. The second time: you walk in like a boss and all your friends are already there.

A lot of the people doing this have been programmed by their peers to see regular jobs as something suckers do, and that crime is the "cool" way to make money. Most of them are not doing it because jobs are unavailable, just that they don't want a job. A lot of them would work for themselves though if they could find the right industry and were given appropriate help to see it through and stay on the correct path.

* trespass isn't always a crime the first time you are caught somewhere you should not be - often it requires the property owner to tell you that you are not welcome to return before the statute activates
I work as a senior contractor, and yet I am happy to take more junior roles in teams and let others be the tech lead while playing down my own experience. It’s easy street.

There is a difference between dead fish you find by the waterside, and dead fish in your kitchen.

All fish rot from the soft organs first, and muscles and skin last.

In the kitchen, you’ve already removed all the fish guts so the fist thing to rot is the eyes and tongue in the head.

So… er… you are both right?

I still worry that it is recording our conversations. I feel sorry for people who own these, do not realize this, and do not have a good adblocker firewall.

I had the same thought. I think it's more Slavic vs Germanic/Romantic. "sv", without a vowel, doesn't exist in any word I can think of. However, in Russian, consonant clusters like that are pretty common. See also, from the article, Sberbank. I'd bet there's plenty of examples in reverse too.

Ah, "you will own nothing" accelerated! This seems like the fever dream of a World Economic Forum plutocrat. Let's make it so people will literally never be able to own a house because of prohibitive taxes. This will solidify the domination of those who already have houses, like older generations, while completely selling younger people down the river with the promise of a tiny handout that will be totally devalued by time it reaches you.

That (freezing the whole desktop) shouldn't even be possible even if safari has some bug.

also no usable crash report or anything, no way to debug it etc.

Sure that's just one maybe especially unlucky example.

And my comment comes from a "additional cost safari imposes compared to e.g Firefox" point of view. So I'm counting long outstanding missing features as bug (except if missing for reasonable privacy concerns).

Anyway as far as I can tell it's not as bad as IE in it's later days, but not that much better (wrt. cost it forces onto you).

I remember in the early 00s WAMP/LAMP was the stack of choice in getting quickly setup for writing web applications, but configuration was often painful, especially on the Apache side. At that time I was working on hobby projects like one private server I used to administer. When Rails came out it was just a breath of fresh air compared to PHP and I distinctly remember switching to that. NGINX was also picking up steam at that time as well

> How many other people do you know who that didn't happen to? Remember, everyone who got it in 2020 was unvaccinated. And if we're to accept this anecdote, then we also need to accept all of the anecdotes about the vaccine harming people.

Well, I know of 27 people in my circle who got Covid. 2 are dead. 1 is currently on ventilation. 2 went on ventilation and recovered and have been in therapy every since. 3 have severe long Covid that is impacting their lives detrimentally. 7 have mild long Covid (myself included) that we probably should just classify as "viruses do more damage and take longer to get rid of than we thought". So, that leaves 12 who are basically fully recovered--and most of those were post-vaccination.

Of course, this leaves out people who got Covid but either didn't get tested or were so mild that they didn't notice.

Let us contrast this to the vaccine: Out of all the people I know of who got the vaccine (probably 50+) as well as people who participated in the testing phase (7 of them) I know this many who had any symptoms from the vaccine after 2 weeks:

Exactly zero.

And, since vaccination, I know of this many vaccinated people who have had to even go to the hospital let alone be ventilated or die:

Exactly zero.

I'm sure someone, somewhere has had a bad reaction to the vaccine. Anaphylaxis is a thing.

However, if I apply a statistical analysis even to my weak anecdotal data, I'm going to come up with a strong signal.
Even this is changing. A growing number of titles includes the DLC. I suspect that not all of them do due to licensing agreements.
I'm gonna have to say that's just a bit of an exaggeration.
Most requests in reality are GET. So if you first check for G,

if (m[0] == 'G') {
r->method = NGX_HTTP_GET;
break;
} else if (m[0] == 'P') {
switch(m[1]) { ... }
} else if ...

this should be fast enough.
Haha that reminds me of a company I worked at that used some MS library for .net.

I think it was like Microsoft.WebMatrix.Data

It essentially was a micro ORM written using dynamic but had no caching so it performed terribly with all the reflection. It was a drop in replacement to use Dapper. But dapper was dismissed due to it being “Demoware” despite it running stackoverflow. I left that place 2 weeks later.
Unfortunately, the entire thread is people who don't understand that Autopilot and Full Self Driving are not the same thing. Autopilot comes with the vehicle, and is simply a lane-assist system. It explicitly tells you it will not brake the vehicle when activated. This driver was using Autopilot.

Full Self Driving is an expensive upgrade, and the driver wasn't using it.

But not to worry, the conflation of the two is driving dozens of confident, self-assured statements in this thread that are embarrassingly off-the-mark.
yeah but it's still probably related. "videt" and "vitat" (to welcome) is probably the same etymological base. and "svitat" is kinda like see again, or welcome again. But yeah, this is diggging kidna deeper in the meaning that you normally don't think of in regular use of our languages.

I worked for a number of Canadian banks and some half took great pride in their mediocrity.

Open Source Flight Controller Firmware
My PC has a specific drive/partition (a single hard drive which has a single large partition)allocated to long-term archival use - in other words, a 'write once, keep forever' policy.

That partition is backed up daily to two separate external USB hard drives using rsync.

That gives three separate copies. One of those copies is also rsynced to a separate laptop, so a total of 4 copies.

I don't store archival stuff like videos, photos, music in my personal directories and scatter them all over the place. An archive is an archive and needs to be centralised and then distributed outwards from there.

Is there a good solution for posterity? For example, once I die

Unfortunately, you can't control posterity from beyond the grave. What you consider priceless is something that your descendants maybe can't wait to get rid of. I learned this lesson when my brother died. I started off trying to keep as much as possible of his stuff, but as I sorted through it I found that it was worthless to me so I ended up discarding about 95% of it. I saw that when I died, somebody else would do exactly the same thing with all of my carefully-hoarded information.
heh. Sorry, I obviously implied the maxwell twins (RELATED to Robert/Ghislaine)

You don't need publications of course, both are competing to own a social network and derive their strength from users that is the threat.

An online ecosystem like Arxiv can very easily supersede a journal if they want to.

For example Arxiv say could deploy a public peer review process i.e. reviews, criticisms and comments on the paper could be available next to paper in Arxiv without a lot of effort technically. Similarly curation and collation could easily taken up for free by community. Any of this would upend journals in quality or throughput easily. There are no problems journals solve that online cannot do better not even exclusivity they charge so much for.

After all there are enough people to moderate reddit or do various quality control tasks in StackOverflow for not much benefit, researchers who curate on Arxiv could easily be found and they may even get a job boost.

Building that community and acceptance is the hard part everything else is relatively trival.

It’s not a question of what a single immigrant does, but what all immigrants do as a group. It might be that immigrants on net cost more in UBI than they contributed to the UBI program but such imbalance could just as easily go the other direction.

In the end working must provide incentives for natives to work for any UBI system to exist and those same incentives would apply to immigrants.
I find it interesting how large the maker movement is in China despite the very lax copyright. It simply has no or net positive effect, it would seem. I know I'm oversimplifying, but I think the general argument against relaxing copyright protections, at least the most common I've heard, is precisely that.
The reason the stuff lasts so long is it's chemically gone from cellulose/wood fiber to acetate.

There's a lot of issues with using it aside from expense; anything touching it will be impacted by the acidity of the wood, so you'll want to use things like stainless steel.

It's a great wood, but it's not all roses. The other thing to keep in mind, the process behind it doesn't HAVE to be applied to New Zealand or Chilean radiata pine, they only use that wood as it's more marketable and people are more likely to stomach the costs.

Something to also keep in mind the wood is only treated on the outside. If you cut into it, for example the endgrain on every plank you buy - it'll need to be sealed just as regular radiata pina. When "perennial wood" was originally sold decades ago, people installed it expecting zero maintenance and then found their decking started to rot less than a decade later. Keeping that in mind, similar issues can arise if you sand the wood.
