Most spectrometers use either reflection gratings, or holographic transmission gratings that are tailored for optimal efficiency to the wavelength range of interest, and also have exceptional flatness, surface quality, and so forth. "High resolution" is relative, and there are a lot of other figures of merit for spectrometers.

This is a prominent US supplier, and they offer a lot of useful info at their site:

https://www.gratinglab.com/Home.aspx

With all that said, the plastic grating is a very cool thing, and with it you can demonstrate pretty much all the basics of gratings and spectrometers.

All distros are beholden to upstreams, this is a fundamental attribute of all of them. Unless the distro develops all of their own interface components and keeps them the same, or forks an existing upstream project wholesale and prevents UI changes. Some of them are starting to do that, but usually they do that so they can change the UI more rather than keeping it the same.
Fair enough. Indeed I didn't consider support costs. Thank you for your answer!

Actually let me ask another thing. Your FAQ mentions you're considering hosting CockroachDB as a drop-in distributed replacement for PostgreSQL [0], and also you currently offer a distributed, eventually consistent PostgreSQL replication solution [1].

Is either Tikv [2] (distributed key-value store) or Tidb [3] (distributed database with a mysql interface, built on top of Tikv) on your radar?

You already offer Redis as a key-value store, but Tikv has an amazing property: it ensures strong consistency globally (not eventual consistency). Tidb, being built on top of Tikv, also has strong consistency.

Not to mention having biased election volunteers look at your ID and deem it fake or a "different signature." You can take them to court, but by then the election is over, so it doesn't matter. There's so many ways for the Republicans to corrupt the vote and they've had great success in doing so thus far, so why not go deeper down that path? Who is going to stop them? Democrats who even with a majority can't get a caucus going due to there always being conservative democrats who are pretty much republicans and loyal to republican causes.

Cheap synthetic fertilizer is one of the single greatest inventions of the 20th century, and is singlehandedly responsible for an enormous increase in our productive capacity and quality of life.

At the same time, I think this chart is misleading: it shows our ability to support the current population as it currently consumes, which includes an extraordinary amount of crop diversion towards animal feed. The GP is describing a world in which we all eat radically less meat, which is also one in which we need to use less synthetic fertilizer for all that meat's food.

You can already see the stats you mentioned. The unvaccinated get admitted to the ICU at staggering rates compared to the vaccinated.

And given the spread of omicron, odds are that almost everyone will get exposed. I've had two near misses this week alone...

Even at the anecdotal level everyone I know is vaccinated and no one is long term ill from it.

I suspect the incessant querying from bad faith actors is more of an ideology than a true wish to seek an actual answer.
Ask HN: With StackOverflow Jobs closing soon, what are some good alternatives?
This is cool. I frequently find that medical people (at least in America) are intentionally ambivalent towards how much things cost - charitably, for patient care at least, you want the highest quality care for everyone, and skimping on cost could compromise someone's health. The idea that something being more expensive makes it more scarce, as obvious as it would seem, is often a secondary consideration.

Example: My wife is in surgery, and has told me how surgical tools often come billed as a set. Rather than being able to bill for a single tool, if an operation requires another duplicate of the same tool the surgeon will often just open an entire new set.

Another example: In college I build a tDCS machine [1] for about $20. I knew a doctor from the VA who was working in the area who showed me one with essentially the same circuit which sold for $80,000 - essentially for the stamp of approval from the FDA to use it in a clinical research setting.

There are reasonable-sounding explanations for both things I guess, but the obvious consequence is that the number of people able to receive care is dramatically lower. I feel like there are probably similar analogies in technology, but maybe they are more easily disrupted because of lower regulatory barriers.

Leetcode is a first-order screen to find people of base-level minimum intelligence and problem solving ability. It's not a quiz of actual problems you'll solve on the job, it's a way to screen out the wannabes who couldn't program their way out of a wet paper bag.

Grinding leetcode also shows you've got grit, and are willing to prepare for a task and do what it takes to succeed.

Because many hospitals are being stretched to the brink right now. Which would not be the case if most people were vaccinated. But that ship has sailed, so we have to deal with it. Luckily, this recent wave may be on the downslope and will have naturally immunized quite a few people so that maybe the next wave will be more minor.

Then the definition depends on whether you consider adding a primary key as default or not. I would not consider it default, though it is customary.
It depends on the type of questions and whether they were relevant. The thing with these little coding quizzes is they rarely have anything to do with what the person will do day-to-day. Design a problem that's relevant to the work and it's fine.

Question for you - are meetings others initiate/are in charge of, but which nevertheless serve a clear point that necessitates your presence as draining?

Because that's the differentiator for me. If I have a goal I'm trying to achieve there, and the meeting is focused on that goal, it doesn't matter if I'm just a participant or not. If their isn't a clear goal, or I'm expected to be there despite not being involved in that goal (if it's an informational meeting I don't care about the information; if it's a decisional meeting I don't care or can't influence the decision; if it's a brainstorming meeting it's about something that doesn't affect me or a problem I'm not responsible to solve), it's massively draining.

Even as a product of one of those schools, I think the comparison against CA might be going a bit far, but as long as we're talking perceptions/stereotypes...

In Aerospace, within both U.S. government and industry, midwest engineering schools are widely seen as producing more undegrad-level engineers who actually want to be engineers than places like Stanford.

Stanford, in particular, seems to attract proportionally way more engineering majors that want to use engineering credentials as a gateway out of engineering (high finance, startup executives, management, etc.). A colleague of mine in Big Aerospace says there's a pretty consistent pattern of not being able to hang on to many Stanford or MIT grads for very long. Granted Big Aerospace can be a miserable place to work in a number of ways, but if you want to hone your craft in a number of aerospace disciplines, you'll need some level of exposure to that kind of knowledge/experience-base. You're not going to get that at the next delivery drone or flying taxi startup.

Forgetfulness is often the consequence of boredom or old age. To subject oneself to much of the same tedium with the expectation of novelty is utterly baffling. To erroneously extrapolate this experience to the general population, doubly so.

I think the worst thing for the child is that they aren't settled anywhere. It's one week, then you move and... do you have all your toiletries, what clothes do you have at this parent's, what different schedule and rules, how do I see my friends here, what's around this neighborhood.

Although, sometimes situations like that make you perversely stronger/more flexible/more mature. Adversity is a forge, in the right doses.

Yeah, this is less of an issue in tech where it’s not super common for people to be waiting on lifers to retire but a lot of my peers in your typical corporatey jobs have suddenly been tempted by a surge of openings for more senior positions that they have been, on paper, qualified for the last like 3-5 years ish.

That excuse is maybe acceptable for someone who worked at Facebook 10 years ago, but someone who is still working there in the last couple of years? You might just be an employee but you’re willfully helping well-known behaviors.

This isn’t like some revelation of fraud that employees don’t know about. Countless articles have been written about the problems with Facebook and it has been in the crosshairs of national politicians several times.

At this point taking a job at Facebook is not really any different than accepting a marketing job at a cigarette company.
Awesome!

I was thinking more about the user-facing apps you use. Scanning https://github.com/khuedoan/homelab, Gitea is Go, Grafana is Javascript (approximately), Element is Javascript, Dendrite is Go, Vault is Go. K8s itself is Go. Are you planning to run your own email server?

Now I find myself wondering what app choices exist if one were to try to constrain oneself entirely to operating in the Go eco-system, with Javascript only for web clients. That would be quite parsimonious.

I confess to not understanding this take, money can purchase back a substantial portion of time. Working at big tech can fairly easily reduce your working life to 10 years if you spend conservatively. Outside of big tech the norm seems to be more towards 20-30.

The cost of those decades of saved time? About 100ish hours of prep for your first interview, 40-50 from there on (based on personal experience, conversations with my colleagues, and a friend who runs a FAANG interview class). Assuming 3 job hops in your 10 year working life, that's 200ish hours to save 20 years. Is there a reason you don't think that's worth it?

Systems that are gravitationally bound will stay that way, yes. (At least as long as a "big rip" scenario does not happen; our best current observations say it won't, but the error bars don't completely rule it out.) Generally speaking, the boundary in our universe seems to be around the galaxy cluster level: galaxy clusters are the largest systems that are generally gravitationally bound (although often quite loosely, so that objects near the outer edge of the cluster might fairly easily acquire escape velocity through random encounters with other objects). That corresponds roughly to a distance scale of a few tens of millions of light-years.
