Automated tools that overwhelm these triggers should be deployed. Get everything flagged and force them to put a human in the loop and fix the system. Make it technically impossible to appease the entertainment mafia and batshit regulations.
When I was using Google Calendar for work, I'd let that do desktop notification because it helped keep me from missing meetings. Other than that, no chance. Turned it to default-deny instead of default-ask so I don't have to deal with a dozen lame news pages I check one story on trying to send me a notification about their breaking news every 10 minutes.
Folders work perfectly in a pure hierarchical taxonomy. Many classifications defy this rigid of a structure, however. For example:

Widget 1: it is A and B but not C, so tag it with A and B.

Widget 2: it is A and B and C, so tag it A, B, and C.

Widget 3: it is B only, so tag it B.

That is pretty simple, but you couldn't represent that in a folder system without permutation folders, meaning you now have folder sprawl, making things harder to find.

This is how servers and ec2s are for almost everyone. Billing codes, environments, teams, business units, etc. A folder taxonomy to replace ec2 tags would be a nightmare.
I think the article is incorrect.

Plus: you may have enough battery range that you don't need to charge every day anyway (making it much less of a "gamble" and more an intentional risk assessment) and some EV owners already live/work on once a week or two trips to a fast charger rather than daily charging. In some cases daily charging is a huge "bonus".

>I'm not saying OOP is popular, I'm saying it's successful.You're not making an argument against that at all.

No. No. I am NOT making an argument saying is OOP is NOT Successful. I never Made such an argument EVER.

What I am saying is that your argument is completely Invalid. I am saying you can make no such argument for OOP being successful. Big difference. I make no argument on anything other than saying your argument CANNOT be made with your given evidence.

The evidence you present only supports OOP's popularity. Not it's success. Unless you count popularity as success. The argument can still be made that for every application of OOP on ANY project a better non-OOP solution could have been made. This is a possibility. My post only opens this as a possibility and dismisses your post as the absolute truth.
It definitely scans better than 'Flux' from InfluxDB2.

One thing I like about Flux is the ability to split streams and return multiple distinct aggregations. Very handy in Grafana dashboards!
It would be a bit ironic for universities to compete on efficency and speed given those are two things companies optimize on. Not impossible of course, theory and encouragement to a bit more abstract could lead to providing that.

As for writing low level code, I thought that was something usually handled by the compiler or where even the advanced high performance for high price mostly tweaked the compiler after analyzing the output. Not my direct space so I speak with no authority.
Look, I get that Russia is not exactly kind to its neighbors, I have some Polish relatives who tell me all about that. But I'm just not really sure that the US has any business being in Russia's "near abroad" anymore. The US isn't 50% of the world GDP anymore, and is politically paralyzed - I don't think we have the appetite nor the finances for another gigantic war.

Now this is controversial, so don't take this the wrong way, but I'd feel a lot better about the US defending Europe if Europe would also shoulder some of the burden. I honestly don't see why the US needs to spend so much on this project, while other NATO members are unable to even meet the 2% spending commitment. As a regular American it just kind of seems like Europe is riding on our backs with this. As much as I love Europe, Europeans, and European culture, I can't get behind spending tax dollars on defending countries that don't care enough to spend money to defend themselves.

I’ve heard that there is third party tooling that makes managing wg easier but I haven’t really looked into that space. I need to do it though, as that’s one of the major pain points of wg, that each client needs to be whitelisted serverside essentially.

My experiences at every company I've worked for (and the reasons I've departed from them) in my career have all given me additional signals to scan for in the recruitment stage, be it tech stack, culture, advancement, mentorship, etc. It's not a perfect system, but it's self-reinforcing and constantly improving -- I'm fortunate to be able to select for things I need/want and am not currently getting when I'm actively searching. This includes a comparatively brief but ultimately very stressful period of unemployment where the most important signal was "this role will pay me a salary".

Some bottom-of-the-barrel firehouses will absolutely disqualify themselves through their signaling in interview loops. But I think the reality is that at most places the dysfunction just won't become evident until you've been working there for a bit and the cracks start showing.

Which brings us back to another huge advantage of tech -- I think the "safest" landing spot (assuming your personal non-negotiables are satisfied) is the spot that gives you the most financial security to leave when you've seen enough. Assuming you have a good handle on your standards/costs of living and risk tolerance, after a certain breakpoint, more money saved means more time and less time-pressure to find the signals you care about. I don't think a "dream job" exists for me, but a better one always does.

I'm not sure why the square root matters in here, it seems like a more general problem of storing an unbounded array of arbitrary precision digits. Wouldn't you run into the same problem with doing simple addition on an array that includes pi to infinite precision?
In the past they've used machine learning to do a kind of blurring I can't remember the name of to make scenes in VR look more realistic. They are building a lot of ML models. I think the future of VR is almost intertwined with machine learning.
> But to build a compiler, you need to be able to see the output. A disassembler had to be built along with the compiler.

Until very recently the dominant paradigm, at least for ahead-of-time compilers on Unix, was to emit textual assembler code and run a separate assembler on it behind the scenes. No disassembler needed, you can ask GCC or LLVM based compilers to just give you the intermediate data with -S.

> But running obj2asm is a separate process, and the output is filled with all the boilerplate needed to create a proper object file. The boilerplate is rarely of interest, and I’m only interested in the generated code for a function.

Sounds like a bug in obj2asm. GNU objdump, for example, has handy -d and -D flags for disassembling only the code for one or all symbols.

> One would think that the way to do this would be to have the compiler generate the assembler source code, which would then be run through an assembler like MASM or gas to create the object file. I figured this would be slow and too much work.

It was fast enough even for the very first C compilers... <checks calendar> 40 years ago. For actual compilations. Not to mention that when you as a human want to read the assembly code, it doesn't matter how "slow" the -S flag's output is. No matter how "Alpha" you are, the bottleneck will be you, the human.

> Instead, the disassembler logic actually intercepts the binary data being written to the object file and disassembles it [...] I am not aware of any other compiler that does this in the same way.

The HotSpot JVM has -XX:PrintAssembly and -XX:CompileCommand=ClassName.methodName flags that do this in the same way.

Just like the author, I am not aware of any other, other compiler that does this in the same way. Because just like the author I haven't bothered to check. But if I had to bet, I would bet that all major just-in-time compilers do this in the same way.
They take up chip capacity on different fab. You can't produce gaming Ampere on TSMC. They are built on different architectures that have only name in common. The difference between "Ampere" and "Ampere" is bigger than between Volta and Turing, or maybe even than difference between Pascal and Turing.
Yeah I agree here, I used to find Nix somewhat unintuitive but I have now managed a few non-trivial projects. One being to package Xilinx ISE as a flake [0], and another to build an immutable Linux image using busybox and runit [1]. For the latter I still haven't quite gotten where I want but that's because I realised I needed dbus for avahi and dbus is just so ridiculously complex.

A hydraulic cylinder connecting the systems would work. It maps voltage (pressure) between two disconnected systems through a ratio of windings (piston area). It only creates flow when there is a change in voltage (pressure) and current (flow), and if the circuit is open on the induced side then the transfer of energy is limited to the capacitance (compressibility) in the circuit.
Woah. This is exactly what I am doing right now. I recently left my job after 10 very eventful years in software engineering and leadership. I am currently working on a home automation hardware product, which does require PCB design, 3D Printing, and Firmware Development.

I was trying to have it as a hobby for several years as I am very passionate about software development, but my full time job was taking so much of my time that I was never able make much progress. Now that I am working full time on the home automation product, I am moving much faster and I am working towards a pre-launch on Crowd Supply, which is in a couple of weeks. I am depending on my savings right now, and my goal is to make atleast sustainable income in the next 1-2 years and keep working on more home automation products.

Machining does sound fun to me, and I have a few things that I want to machine, but I don't have access to a metal CNC machine or know anyone who does. You can find a lot of software and hardware people in Silicon Valley, but not many CNC folks.
> minus the slavery clauses

Which slavery clauses? In fact, the only clauses in the US Constitution that addressed slavery in any form (the Three-Fifths Compromise) were actually incentives to abolish slavery.

> They were rank hypocrites

Sure, I think the crux of the debate is whether or not that hypocrisy is one that can be overlooked given the context of the time, and all other deeds/actions.

We're so far removed from the institution of slavery today that the tradeoff of riddling your descendants with debt by freeing slaves seems absurd (and it obviously is, in 2022), but back then it was likely a far more nuanced tradeoff. That's not to say that it's excusable — some of the Founders would have disagreed with where Jefferson ultimately came out on that trade-off — but just that it would have been far more debatable back then than it is today.

My analogy with the modern anti-capitalist that chooses to be a shareholder in corporations out of necessity to participate in today's society is an attempt to draw a comparison with an institution that is seen as less clear cut by _today's_ moral standards.

Well, it's objectively unrealistic in terms of dialogue (nobody talks that way in real life!), plot, and so on. Its depiction of real life and relationships is cartoonish and hardly any more true to life than other escapist fare like Sex and the City.

It's an urban feel-good fantasy, clearly not intended to be realistic. There are tons of shows like this, though Ted Lasso does it better than many of them.

There are a lot fewer shows like, say, Togetherness, which shows the raw, unpolished reality of ordinary middle-class people living very ordinary, albeit dramatically interesting, lives. I would argue that everything in Togetherness not only happens in real life (and the characters also talk like adults do in real life), it also has. Whereas pretty much nothing in Ted Lasso has ever happened, at any time, anywhere.
That was a V100 cluster though. 10k V100s is less powerful (for ML stuff) than ~6k A100s.
To clarify, the unit's own behavior is indeed not external to itself. But the way it behaves from the perspective of a user of the unit is external behavior. Changing the behavior, from that perspective, of a unit will necessarily invalidate its tests (some at least) and is not a refactor. That was my point, if you are changing an API you are not refactoring, you are changing its external behavior.

But this isn't just a problem with unit tests, it's a problem with all tests. And really, it's not a problem. It's the cost of doing business. Anything in flux (where that change changes its behavior) will force you to change anything that depends on it, whether it's a test or a user/client. If you aren't willing to discard the tests then the tests "freeze" the system in place, regardless of their level or kind (unit, integration, end to end).

>PRQL is intended to be a modern, simple, declarative language for transforming data

It's not declarative. It's functional.

I believe that the approach that is followed by PRQL is more practical than SQL. We've implemented a similar approach in our visual ETL tool for non-technical people (https://easymorph.com) and it works wonderfully. Other cool things you can do with this approach (and can't with SQL):

* Modify existing columns without re-selecting the whole dataset

* Loops (iterations)

* Conditional IF/THEN/ELSE branching as a workflow statement

* Exceptions & error handling
I heard from an Anton Petrov video it would reduce the planets average temperature by half a degree for some time, but I don't know where he got that info from.
These aren't startups trying to prove "AI Purity" for more funding. These are money printers that are optimizing how to print more money. And Facebook and Google are competing against each other for online advertising dollars (yes, the pie is also growing). Their revenues are up 60% and 40% over the past 2 years, so I doubt their AI plays are just about proving some purity game.
Presumably the same way you would enter tags in a regular program that has tags, except the datastructure would be stored as a disk file system. you dont necessarily have to manually run ln -s every time, the same way you dont have to run a sql insert to update a tumblr posts tags.
It gets even better. On the front page of Taylor Wilson Smith it says

> Davis Robbins is a leading independent international law

When they were making their fake Taylor Wilson Smith site someone apparently had a copy paste error and included some text from their fake David Robbins site [1].

The fake Taylor Wilson Smith firm and the fake Mason Donald King firm both say they are at One Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10119. It is easy to find the tenant list for that building and there is, or course, no tenants with either of those names.

Another thing they botched when making up these firms is that none of the fake attorneys at Taylor Wilson Smith are named Taylor, Wilson, or Smith. Similar for the fake attorneys at Mason Donald King.

Davis Robbins, which has the same fake phone numbers as the other two, is at least at a different address, 12 Fremont Ave, Staten Island, NY 10306.

That's not even an office. It's a single-family house in a residential neighborhood.

Like the other two fake firms, none of their fake attorneys match the names of the firm.

the US would want to enforce it, not so much to be nice to Estonians / Argentinians, but to to stop US companies bypassing US workers by going overseas and bypassing laws to protect employees.
I think a lot of the rote gruntwork in the legal process has been automated already. The people that suffered from this are probably the paralegals and lower tier entry level lawyers.

Once you go beyond that, my (distinctly non-lawyer) experience has been that there is a lot of subjective territory involved.

For example, my social circle includes a lot of immigrants. I've seen cases that should have been easy get rejected because they decided to cheap out with the lawyer, or even attempt to do the filing themselves. On the other side, I've seen cases that everyone was expecting to get rejected, pass, because they afforded a good lawyer.

> all of those features cost us less than 8 hours of my time each year

I'm surprised! Our RDS costs are about 10 engineering hours per month (120 eng/hrs per year). This is with hardly any customer traffic or data yet (early startup phase).

It's worth it for now, but it'll become unreasonably expensive later.
At the L2 distance you'd have passed out of Earth's shadow cone even if exactly at L2, at best you'd be in the penumbra. But Webb has an orbit of 800,000 km radius around L2, which would put it will outside of that regardless.

Slavery was legally abolished in the US only after secession and in the midst of a total war between the Confederacy and the US. Since it was total war, the US had no enforcement capability in the South short of military conquest. At that point the South were in a very poor negotiating position.
I don't understand why do you think about it this way

C#'s LINQ (really powerful tool similar to SQL) works the same way

var extracted = list

.............................Select(x => $"my number: {x})

.............................ToList();

or

var extarcted =

........................from x in list

........................where x > 1

........................select $"my number: {x};

This is madness. How is the 'average user' supposed to go through and understand this data? The files inside are also probably a bunch of CSV or XML files as well.

And yet despite three Democratic presidential terms since 1992, the average American is way poorer and sicker than they were 30 years ago. The consistency of these Democratic congregations is undermined by rotating villain strategies where actually beneficial pieces of legislation are weakened and made toothless. The ACA and Medicaid expansion you listed as things that the Democrats have done for their constituents both were undermined by a lack of a public option and healthcare costs for the average American are no better than they were 30 years ago.

Frankly I don't care about proposals for bills. The Democrats deserve some praise for the infrastructure bill, but in the end that was a massively stripped down bill that only accomplished a fraction of its proposed aims. For a party in total power over government that's a whole long list of proposals without much to show for it.

I don't even claim that the Republicans are much better, but at least Trump's rhetoric over cleaning house in Congress and draining the swamp is admitting that there is a problem in the government, and not claiming oh-so-righteously that the Democrats would solve all our problems were they just given all the electoral tools needed to do so. They've had those tools at multiple times the last 30 years and utterly failed in their aims.

It's incredible that you claim urban Americans don't hate rural Americans and then condescendingly dismiss Alabama as a religious back-water and that they need to stop dragging the glory of the coasts down with them. The people who live in "religious back-waters" like Alabama are some of the most disadvantaged people in the country who've grown steadily and steadily poorer as the wealth of the nation flows in one direction (or two) towards the coasts. Maybe that's not hate, maybe that's more indifference, but to the people at the losing end of an economic rebalancing I'm not sure that's all that different. No wonder they're all so angry if this many people outright dismiss the struggle half this country seems to be going through.
