> Sorry, the work environment is inherently political these days.

For most companies it isn't at all. They consentrate on issues relevant to staying competitive in the market.

I agree that actual cases of discrimination should be addressed and corrected.

Putting forth the ideology that "people" are "imposing their political beliefs on us every moment of every day" says more about you than it does anyone else.

Because that's exactly what you are doing.

Thanks for this, would appreciate even more a better source linking somewhere other than Twitter as the source (though not your fault in any way, and I anticipate that over time Twitter will eventually implode and we won’t have such a scourge anymore ;).
I did biology at shcool. My parents had to buy me a dissection kit - scalpels, forceps, lancets and so on. The curriculum was quite heavy on dissections. We had to dissect frogs, dogfish and rats. We once also had to do an experiment on a live (pithed) frog. We were marked on the drawings we had to make of our dissections. These labs were double classes - a bit more than two hours.

I have no idea how worthwhile that kind of instruction was; knowledge of anatomy hasn't featured in my career. I suspect it would have been very helpful if you decided to become a physician.
Organ-specific is the most promising in my opinion. It’s also more likely to be actionable. Different organs will “peak” at different ages.
I think they may have provided fewer citations because it felt like a less controversial claim. I think the choice of words was just a bit awkward. To me, it seems like they were asserting that deep learning requires lots of computational resources which is common knowledge. In general, this translates to higher energy requirements.

Compared to other centers, there are very few "tourists" that come here that are just interested in trying out aya; much more catered to long-term dieters than the average center. It's very traditional Shipibo, with a big focus on "master plant" diets (additional plants taken along with ayahuasca for their healing/teaching abilities), and tends on the stricter side.

> Covid is highly unlikely to be dangerous to kids, as far as we know. This much I can agree with, but we don't know if there are any long-term effects, and we won't until sufficient time has passed for that to be discovered. What if it makes kids under the age of 10 sterile ? (No, I don't think it does either, but it's an example of something you can't tell for a while).

[Novel mRNA vaccines] are highly unlikely to be dangerous to kids, as far as we know. This much I can agree with, but we don't know if there are any long-term effects, and we won't until sufficient time has passed for that to be discovered.

> And, however unlikely, with a sufficiently large population of kids being infected, there are some who will pay the ultimate price, it is a potentially lethal disease after all - and that utterly sucks if you're one of those kids' parents; I wonder how they feel, when people say "it's no worse than a mild cold for them", looking at their dead child one last time before burying him/her.

COVID is as dangerous as a cold for children. That is a fact. Children die of the cold and flu every year. That also sucks for the parents of those children as well. What's the point you're trying to make? Are you advocating for a zero risk society?
Recently got an EZ Flash Jr to get into playing homebrew gameboy games on my (unmodded) GB pocket from middleschool. Itch.io has more fun GB games than i'll ever have time to play and its felt like a really positive community.

https://itch.io/search?q=gameboy

Then while bored in a meeting at work I started looking into coding a hello world for it and quickly found my way to some Assembly tutorials which Ive never had an excuse to touch.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RZUDEaLa5Nw

It seems like a really awesome entry point for C or Assembly. Wondering if anyone has any GB development beginners advice in addition to this post?

Also is there a GameBoy dev zeitgeist or is it just coincidence that I feel like Im seeing a lot of developer stuff pop up for it lately?
To the extent this is legit it would be great news for electric aviation as well. Range would still be very limited vs. current aircraft but it starts to get more viable for short-haul applications.
Usually job queue libraries provide other niceties like tight language integrations. While you could probably build a job queue with a decent API in pure postgres, it wouldn't even come close to e.g. just slapping @task in front of your method like in the post.
Have the people in this thread ever actually interviewed and hired people in the last decade?

It's a super softball question that gives that gives the interviewer a chance to brag about any small advancements they've recently made.

In 2022, if a hiring manager didn't have a decent response to this question locked and loaded, it would be a super red flag.

I don’t think there is some grand conspiracy here. Social conservatives are motivated by their desire for cultural homogeneity and protecting existing hierarchies. This isn’t a wedge issue, it’s a central part of what it means to be conservative in the first place. The left is defined by opposition to this idea to varying degrees (ranging from reform to revolution). The specifics of what it means to preserve tradition and how it might be challenged are specific to the historical and geo-political context.
I had an offer after meeting five people, the rest was me finding out more about them.
Just following up. So by putting "facts" in quotation marks, you're saying that they're not real facts (and implying inaccuracy). Are there specific examples you'd want to share?

I remember that show as a roaring river of information, all delivered with Burke's speedy narration. So if there's something that seems off after 40-plus years, I think I'd still be inclined to accept the larger context of information in which it appears.
> There are more sites like this one today, by at least an order of magnitude, than existed in the early lift-off days of the Web

There are probably 3 orders of magnitude more crap though, so the good stuff is harder to find. And the random fun stuff doesn't bother with SEO so it's easy to feel like the internet is full of more crap, because it is. In the early days people were building websites for fun, nowadays people are doing it for money (or marketing, or they feel obligated to have a LinkedIn even if they hate it, or whatever - nobody used to feel obligated to use the internet). Sure, there are still some gems, but they're drowned out by turds.

The early days are more fun because true believers are building something they really care about, by the time something becomes mainstream it's already generic.

Your point about music doesn't apply because music has existed for millenia. The internet has existed for decades.

Yeah, incorrect firewall rules are a HUGE problem at super large companies that aren't doing infra-as-code at scale yet.

Sysadmins/server engineering/DevOps/SRE, Networks, and Security are usually hard silos at big companies.

"DevOps" gets a request from an app team to open a port between subnet A and subnet B.

DevOps asks Networks to do it. Security needs to approve it before Networks can do it (usually). A cohort of VPs somewhere need to approve it if those subnets are "production" (i.e. subject to serious fines if the data therein fails audit).

Networks outsources the request to their global services team in India/Phillippines/China/Brazil since it's literally a single command, but they are done in bulk. These changes are only done afterhours, partly because of outsourcing latency, partly because of regulations.

The firewall person types in the wrong port. Emergency change request gets filed to fix. Fixed in 1-3 days after the CTO/CIO and some SVPs approve it (and maybe yells at people for wasting their time).

The requester asks for the wrong port. Too bad, so sad, you're waiting another week.

The app team asked for the wrong port. Same outcome as the DevOps person.

Huh, this is news to me! I always thought that ptrace temporarily changed the page's permissions, rather than bypassing them entirely. My mistake.
In college I learned that after 36 hours I was coding in circles. A fix to package A broke package B. Fixing package B broke package A. Repeat.

I went through the loop three times before I recognized the pattern, and decided it was a good time to pass out.
I've looked at moving away from the google's data slurping for a while, but when including things like gvoice features, it integrates nicely for my custom domain fully. If you use voice through a browser, the web version is falling apart though. Seems like voice might die soon, one less reason to hang around if so.

What super annoys me is I use GSuite for personal use, but Google seems to think only businesses would actually pay. So much so they restrict things like my ability to leave reviews on either maps or play stores. I simply can't review anything, it doesn't even give me the option with a gsuite-based account. I was told because it's a "business" service, but certain some of us obviously do use this for personal as well for my personal domain alone and not using my employer to slander products in reviews.

Even more odd, I can't review maps locations from my pc, but I can my phone. Play store simply gives me to review option what so ever on both. My tickets and complaints went nowhere with them.

Caveat emptor for using GSuite.
That’s always going to be true. By definition elites are the people who have benefited most from things being the way they are. They may be socially somewhat liberal, if it makes them look good, but economically always conservative. Because being pro gay marriage doesn’t cost them anything. But universal health care would. Hence you people like Nancy pelosi who use socially progressive positions as a cover for deeply regressive and right wing economic and military policy. That’s also why you get the superficial lip service paid to Black Lives Matter, where they will paint a street or kneel in kente cloths while simultaneously doing nothing whatsoever to materially improve black peoples lives. One costs money, specifically costs the elites money, while the other is free.
You missed your window. March of 2020 was the perfect time to try something like this.
Check out the recommended requirements[0] documentation. In practice it depends greatly on how many client agents you want to manage (i.e. how large is your cluster). I personally run Nomad + Consul + Vault on the $6 AMD DO droplet to run a few website, and that node still has room to spare.

There a new standard called USB Programmable Power Supply which allows devices to specify exactly what voltage they desire in 10mV increments. I have started getting adapters for all my electronics (e.g. label printer) so I can standardise on one kind of power supply. Most things use one of the normal voltages (5/9/12/15/20) so USB PD will often suffice, however not all USB PD chargers support all the voltages. I have a Delta Electronics USB PD charger that does not do 12V.

Sorry, didn't mean it quite like that. It's clear neural spike activity exists as a physical process. I'm suggesting that spiking activity may be an epiphenomena more primary brain functions, i.e. information processing, consciousness, etc..

As far as I know, we're closest to showing information processing in the visual cortex (which is highly linear) and we're still a long way from knowing how it works at a neural level. But maybe someone here can update on this?

But much of the cortex is highly recurrent (non-linear) and the idea that it's doing something like sending bits between synapses, encoded in spike timing or something.. well, I think that's highly speculative and has plenty of problems. But even if so, that's just "information processing".

I'm personally a fan of electromagnetic theories of consciousness[], where the synaptic activity could be an epiphenomenon of supporting a stand EM field.

You establish a TCP session with the IPv6 address of that site instead of its IPv4 one by way of getting its AAAA record and your phone having dual-stack networking enabled.

The browser now includes ads based on your bookmarks and browsing history through Mozilla's "trusted" partners:

> “When contextual suggestions are enabled, Firefox Suggest uses your city location and search keywords to make contextual suggestions from Firefox and our partners, while keeping your privacy in mind,” the support post reads. The “relevant suggestions” from “trusted partners” appear at the bottom of the usual search suggestions pulled from your bookmarks, browser history, and open tabs — a less intrusive version of a search ad, but technically still an ad.

Source: https://www.theverge.com/2021/10/7/22715179/firefox-suggest-...

(It's annoying that the mods unnecessarily removed my parent post that said Firefox is now an adware / spyware - I stand by it. Including ads and using and sharing users data is the definition of an adware / spyware.)

For those who ask, why not just turn it off - remember that corporations only have to follow the law. They have no obligation to be ethically good. If your country has lax privacy laws, companies will exploit it because it is legal. Then there is the trust factor - Mozilla has lost a lot of goodwill in selfishly only focusing on making more money from its browser than listening to their users and creating a good browser. That's why it has been losing ground to Chrome, and will continue to do so as long as greed guides all its decisions and makes Firefox worse. You'd think uBlock Origin's popularity would already have given some insight to Firefox on how much people hate unwanted and intrusive ads, especially that try to mine our personal data.
I can't go v6 only, so why double my workload by supporting ipv4 and ipv6.
> “I sent an email and I’m important therefore everyone got the message”

I see a similar flaw in programmers. "I said it once, and therefore everyone has it memorized", as if people are computers who store every utterance in a file system.
This sounds like complete speculation?
This is because majoritarian governance does not work. Any system based upon voting will yield two outcomes:

1. The purchase of votes

2. The purchase of politicians

This will always yield oligarchy.

There is no magical law that will change this, as all law gets pretty much ignored by those in power when it suits their needs and used as a tool to hammer only their opponents.

There is no magical system that will change this: red, blue, libertarian, green, communist, alt-right, whatever… people constantly think that if just “insert thing here” would happen then it would be solved. It won’t. History did have socialist, fascist, free market, democratic, communist, and very type of system in play at some point somewhere, and they all end poorly due to the basics of humanity. Politicians and votes can both be purchased and otherwise power is centered in too few hands and becomes tyrannical.

So far, the systems that have worked best are all now hated for reason or another, and the world uses “democracy” as a synonym for “goodness” while every so-called democracy is at best corrupt and at worst the enemy of its population.

The 20th century saw the largest amount of slaughter by secular humanist states of their own people. These were varying styles of government. They all fail to enact the will of the governed.
Given your follow-up that points out "that's just the way it is", old toys don't work for the old, I'm curious as to how you think about the resurgence of Dungeons and Dragons? Something that was played, for people of my generation, 30+ years ago. Many of us have re-found that joy, and if anything it's better than it was before. Playing with our kids, playing with other adults, of all ages. Want to re-imagine with your action figures? Use them on your campaigns, on your boards, and put them in your story (imagination). You'll have twice the fun because something you remember is now fused with something you're having fun doing. The thoughts, ideas, emotions you experienced long ago will work their way into a new generation of imaginative, curious (how will the story go), ideas, young or old.
You are very wrong. Your best option, should you be open to knowing how far off you are, is to listen to the podcast series “Seeing White.”

> think if you don't want certain features on production it's better to just not have them in the production branch

Totally agree. In our case however, we used a feature flag when launching a new feature for the first time (a new way to render pdfs) that depended heavily on Per-customer configuration (eg their letterhead/logo) and on the data being rendered, that also had very strict requirements (number of pages, etc). The only to "test" this was in production and it's something that must be reversible in an instant by us or the particular client (ie no redeployment or anything like that).

I guess it depends on the context as well, since we do b2b and on-prem, so there's no such thing as "move fast and break things". Our clients actually require slow moving, incremental, updates that never break things, and it's a bit of a pain for us to do deployments / updates (it takes time, even if kind of automated/scripted).
I have friends at a high level at a few of the FAANG companies. They mentioned that hiring, promotion, and compensation activities are heavily driven by quotas that are illegal and discriminatory, but that it’s all handled in high-level meetings verbally with no paper trail and no transparency. For example at Amazon they reserve executive shadow roles for just women, trans people, Blacks, Latinos, and Native Americans. If you’re a White or Indian or Chinese male, you face a much harder road up the ladder because your merit won’t earn you opportunities. But no one dares to speak up because of how institutionalized DEI programs are. This would have sounded absurd to me five years ago, but even as an outsider I can see that social justice politics are everywhere in tech - I see it when I open the Amazon app or Spotify or whatever else. And I regularly hear the phrase “diversity hire” when surrounded by tech friends (usually in the context of successfully making a diversity hire), so what the poster shared here feels very possible. I feel bad for deserving candidates who belong to those demographic groups - I am sure their experience is especially exhausting.
> complaining about diversity in a place where there's just demographically not going to be that many minorities is a bit unnecessary

In the software industry, I suspect sexism and ageism are far more rampant than sexism, and women and older people are everywhere.

A shit ton. I worked up in the Alaskan fishing industry for a short period. About half the people there were white citizens. It is much worse than the field. You are stuck in a ship, in the Bering Sea (one of the most dangerous and nastiest coastal areas in the US), working 16+ hours a day under the worst conditions imaginable. Imagine being deathly sea sick while holding a knife in your hand, rocking violently from side to side. You're literally trapped, stuck with horrible smell of fish, horribly ill and worked to the bone with no escape and the boss will probably kick your ass if you bail while out at sea.

The upside of that 36/hr is many people were able to either take much of the year off or provide lavishly for their families when otherwise their children would have much fewer opportunities.

It's not even a question whether many would take it, it's a certainty.
