If this is how you feel, then the way you phrased your comment is pretty confusing. You said you strongly disagreed with the author's premise, described the majority of them as "time sucking", and finish off by saying you've never walked away thinking they were unreasonably effective - which, given the tone of the previous statements, reads like an invitation to infer that you often feel the opposite way.

I don't have any sort of dog in this race, but I read and reread your comment, and each time took the impression that you think little of 1x1s. Having read your other comments in the thread, I think I see better that you were disagreeing with the _broadness_ of the author's claim, not the claim itself, but I can understand other commenter's reactions.
> route everything to replicas, catch exceptions on writes, and replay to the writer),

I am curious about the specifics here. Do you do it at the application level or proxy level?

Does doing it at the app level require that all the requests can be routed to any DB instance regardless of whether they are master or slave. A write to a mster is passed through. A read to a master is routed to slaves LB. A read on slave is passed through. A write on replica is routed to the master.

Does this look like a sound design?

Hm, I have mixed feelings about this article.

One-on-ones can be highly effective, no doubt. The kinds of practices that the author describes are often helpful. However, I'm not sure the claim applies to all companies and pairings. I've had a wide range of experiences with one-on-ones.

I've worked for the company that the author is talking about (full disclosure: I worked with him there, had an excellent and productive time, and then was fired). That company places an extremely heavy emphasis on imposing a specific culture from the top down — not just a culture of how work is done, but pervasive to the extent of personal habits and lifestyle advice. Alternative suggestions about culture are generally not entertained because there is a primary tenet that everyone has to align 100% with the culture for it to work, and it is more efficient for everyone to simply align with exactly what the CEO believes than to make culture decisions as a group. Maybe that's the best way to run a startup when your overriding priority is to execute as fast as possible, but it does have other negative side-effects, which were unfortunate for some of my teammates.

Consequently, I am reluctant to generalize from experiences of working there. It is a unique company, and not all working environments and team relationships are going to be like that.
In the past, I've used pdf2ps to convert the PDF to a PostScript file, then used ps2pdf to convert it back to a PDF. This often reduces the file size substantially.

I probably wouldn't recommend doing this for anything serious (since it might negatively affect the a11y of the file), but in the right situations it can be a quick and simple way to massively reduce a PDF's filesize without noticeable side-effects.

Drag is the square of velocity, so not sure how your former date got logarithmic for that, sounds quadratic.

Equation [1]: F(d) = 1/2v^2CdA

Lowering the Cd (drag coefficient) and area can significantly reduce your drag.

This is such an out of touch comment.

I ask that you please speak to some people in South Africa or Botswana where almost 20% of the population live with HIV, including children (both victims of rape - there was and still is the belief that having sex with a virgin can cure AIDS - and children of HIV-positive mothers who were born with the condition).

It's beyond inhuman, and if such a vaccine were to work it would be as impactful as the eradication of Polio (yes, I know it still exists in some places) or Smallpox.

There's also a conversation about it on Reddit you might like: https://www.reddit.com/r/kubernetes/comments/sh4e8c/kubernet...
Are you sure you have your real stance on them not the reactionary one? The first thing you had to say to describe them originally was they were time sucking status updates and ended with out of 1000s you literally never walked out of a single one thinking it was unreasonably effective. The warmest words were that reviewing process and performance was common. When I look back and think of my most time sucking god awful unproductive meeting series there was a "stand up" (wasn't really) meeting for a couple years at one company and even then I remember walking away from a handful thinking "that was a really super crazy productive meeting".

I mean if it's your well established thoughts then it's definitely your well established thoughts, regardless what anyone else thinks you thought, but I don't think jcash was the only one caught of guard with how/what you were countering the author on.
Not the parent, but I've been doing the same thing. For maybe a slightly different reason.

1. Since the 90s. 2. Needs to be solved by user agents. Ad blockers generally work by host name or css selector. This doesn't filter out any of the bad guys that are really trying. 3. Continue with ads I guess. This doesn't actually happen in real life as far as I can tell.

The reason I don't use an ad blocker is that I like being able to see what's going on inside of a web browser. Prevalence of ad blockers creates an incentive to do canvas rendering based on a DRM-obfuscated data blob. That's worse for everyone.
Note that in the original usage of the formula, "unreasonable" meant that there's no valid and explanable reason to why math is so effective in the prediction of physical phenomena. It did not simply mean ill-understood, or explanations to come later. The relationship between math and nature was stated to be akin to a mystery. Most titles borrowing the phrasing nowadays simply mean to say that something is considered very effective and the author finds it surprising.
it almost seems like zero copy design is a larger design principle that has to permeate how all user and kernel code is structured in order to really see the benefits.

YouTube itself doesn't serve ads if you're paying for premium. Outside of that, sure, content creators can do their own "sponsored by" ad segments within their videos.
While HIV is a relatively low incidence in the general population globally, there are some specific regions and subpopulations in various countries at much higher risk.

Yea, like for hurricanes, there used to be local independent gas stations that "price-gouged", but you could at least go get 5 gallons for 5x the normal price if you really needed it.

With price-gouging laws, it means they run out just like everyone else, and then there's no supply available for anyone, regardless of how bad the need.[0]

But it also makes the problem much worse, because when price is fixed, the sole determining factor of who gets it becomes who can get there first.

[0]Or they hoard it themselves and only sell it to friends and family, or as a favor, or in a quasi black market in exchange for other price controlled items. Eg, negotiating how much they'll sell you at the capped price. "I'll sell you $500 of price-capped gas if you sell me a $500 price-capped generator."

One-on-ones can be scary due to their potential implications. If one-on-ones are frequent, it's usually a symptom of an immature culture where people are too lazy to write things down, or they don't want to do it to dodge accountability. Personally, I'd rather send people a chunky paragraph with what I want from them and let them go about their day.

From your article: “If the Hong Kong Monetary Authority had allowed the peg to go, capital flight would ensue and then property prices would tumble. Then there would be massive defaults on mortgages and then the collapse of the banks and then the collapse of the economy," said Joe Zhang, a Hong Kong-based economist with Credit Lyonnais.

Sounds like it was working quite well. Also interest rates as high as 280% only equates to 0.37% that night, considering how short term the disruption they actually survived quite well.

Compared to say Thailand's booming economy came to a halt amid massive layoffs in finance, real estate, and construction that resulted in huge numbers of workers returning to their villages in the countryside and 600,000 foreign workers being sent back to their home countries.[33] The baht devalued swiftly and lost more than half of its value. The baht reached its lowest point of 56 units to the U.S. dollar in January 1998. The Thai stock market dropped 75%. Finance One, the largest Thai finance company until then, collapsed.

I'm aware of promises of improvements related to the 2170 cells, which were delivered first in model 3 allowing lower prices and range of 300+ miles. Then a rev to the model S/X allowed for range and performance increases. Before the 3 the competition claimed sure the model S is an amazing car, but can Tesla actually produce an under $50k car to reach the wider luxury market.

There's a pending 4680 improvements widely expect to ship in the Texas gigafactory model Y this quarter, time will tell. I believe this is generally on the announced schedule.

Am I missing something? Tesla batteries seem to be delivering on promises and experts in the area seem impressed with the Tesla battery reliability, performance, longevity, and kwh/$. Some to the point of calling Tesla a hugely successful battery company that includes various packaging for their batteries in the form of power walls, and model 3/y/x/s.
Google shows you content they have licenced just like everyone else. It isn't like Netflix made all the content they host etc, Netflix also licence content from third party creators so they can host it, Google just doesn't have a filter and instead accept everyone who wants to put stuff there, and then by paying you support those smaller content creators rather than just Hollywood or other big studious like you do when you pay for Disney.

So from my perspective paying for YouTube is more important than paying for Netflix, since with YouTube you help support smaller creators, while with Netflix money gets consolidated into big names and brands. The platform takes a cut at both, but it is still better to have some go to small creators instead of everything going into giant corporations.
I expect the factors keeping it from being higher include: the possibility that it's a fad and vanishes as fast as it rose, or the fact that recreating it from scratch is also just a couple days work.

> reporting of browsing information through non-stapled OCSP

This is a client bug, IMO. And sensible servers like Caddy (and yes, before people complain about disclosure, I made it) staple OCSP automatically.

> here's still major MITM-problems (yes, still; for example CloudFlare is huge-ass MITM),

But optional (and often discouraged), not required! Separate issue.

That's just plain false across most dimensions. https://css-tricks.com/http2-real-world-performance-test-ana...

> it further makes it a lot easier to hide which data is extracted from a computer from the user

That's a separate issue too; don't use clients you don't trust, period. And some big-name clients like Chrome let you dump keys to inspect data transfers locally.

> I wish there was a way non-sensitive data could be transmitted plain-text, but signed with a server certificate.

TLS supports a "NULL" cipher in certain cipher suites for signed-only transmissions, but mainstream server and client support are limited (for good reasons).
This article (and all of the anecdotes surrounding it) has opened my eyes quite a bit. However, it actually reads to me more like a “How to get better at this kind of thing” than a cautionary tale. There are even comments acting as such here.

Fraud hurts us all. Even (especially?) the people who think they are benefitting from it.
Also why we should use statically typed languages.
That's the approach I've been advocating. Electrified roads (even if it's only short, regularly spaced intervals on major highways) make so much more sense than expecting everyone who wants to drive more than an hour or two from home to haul 800 pounds of batteries with them. No having to stop to charge. Less wear on the roads (from reduced vehicle weight). No need for diesel long-haul trucks. EVs can be cheaper, with more cargo room. Less dependence on cobalt or nickel (or you could use LFP batteries to get away from that entirely). Energy usage is shifted to the daytime (when solar power is available) when most people drive rather than charging overnight.

I think the thing that's lacking right now (despite political will) is standards for electrified roads. I like the general approach that Sweden is using, with rails embedded in the road surface: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZNHZnyxCm8

Employers can't discriminate based on any of these things and there is no right to be employed. This will keep coming up as the percent of speech that happens on monopolized platforms continues to increase.

> It's really ashame that we'll never see versions of those mechanical cars combined with the manufacturing precision and quality control available today.

The car that makes me cry a little every time on the what-could-have-been topic is the Honda CRX HF. 54 MPG in 1988. Most cars can't match that today over 30 years later.

If Honda was allowed to do a modern version with some use of carbon fiber for even more lightness and all the advances in fuel injection tuning and engine manufacturing, surely we could have a ~70+ MPG CRX by now.

Correct and the real reason I use HTTPS, having "your connection is not private.. the site may be attempting to steal your information.." come up instead of your web site doesnt exactly inspire confidence in your company or its products.

Your comment insinuates a conspiracy theory, equating OP comment with theories of 5g causing COVID. It does not add much to the discussion and comes across as dismissive.

My experience is that as soon as we make a judgement call about someone, and put them in a pre-conceived box that we do agree with, we are unable to learn.

nothing in it is close to what you are insinuating.

It wasn’t just him saying that. I once went on a forum for a journal article, and there were two camps of biologists - those speaking about the similar sections, and those refuting the claims. I noticed that most of the refutations came from scientists with Chinese sounding names. I realize that this is just anecdotal, and you can choose to believe me or not. But that’s what I saw.

You may still be able to find it on Google.

Also, from the first para of his Wiki page:

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Montagnier promoted the conspiracy theory that SARS-CoV-2, the causative virus, was deliberately created and escaped from a laboratory. Such a claim has been refuted by other virologists.[6][7][8][9] He has been criticised by other academics for using his Nobel prize status to "spread dangerous health messages outside his field of knowledge".[10]

Looks like he’s been at least partially vindicated.

Specifically it's advantageous because bnAB development requires 2 separate immune stimulii applied over months. Injecting protein bolus (traditional vaccines) then requires something like 6+ separate, different vaccines - so 6 synthetic paths, production lines etc.

mRNA eliminates all of that. The 2 immune pathways can be combined into 1 vaccine, and the multiple vaccines can all be produced with the same synthetic pipeline and the same distribution and administration requirements.

mRNA may make a huge difference here.

But joking aside, it's good to have a censor-resistant resolution protocol. This is a more radical idea than the EU's recent proposal to have parallel name servers that obey Europe's GDPR rules.

Still, a lot of power is given to those that control the cables and satellites, and of course the electricity that powers the Internet's hardware. The commercialisation of the Internet has led to more centralization since the 2000s.

A true state of freedom and safety from repression, censorship and dictatorships can perhaps be only achieved with more ad-hoc mesh networks.
