The last time half of North America was under ice was 20kya, 8kya was relatively warm with just a bit of ice that hadn't melted yet in the northeast of Canada.

The species that entered those areas would have done so during climate-driven redistributions from the south as entire plant and animal communities moved north to fill new available habitat, and while there would have been some local adaptation, it isn't like they all evolved from vastly different ancestors in 20k years.

> But other animals and plants are currently filling the niche and containing to expand.

Sort of. For example, the main thing that has filled the niche of predator of grazers like deer across eastern North America is probably the automobile.

In terms of biomass, yes there's a lot of domestic animals. But in terms of functional diversity, there has been a great decline. Just think of the difference between prarie and a crop monoculture. The fewer species in each guild that interact to form the ecosystem, the less resilience overall. Despite large amounts of biomass, the loss of biodiversity is undeniably an issue.

Btrfs increasingly feels like the filesystem that called "Wolf".
My opinion at the moment, subject to change: Docker and Kubernetes have a high price as they add a lot of complexity and make debugging harder. Especially for networking and state-full.

Most of the problems they claim to solve where already solved years ago by more mature solutions:

- reproducible builds and dependencies management: distribution package managers

- high availability: load balancers, keepalive, dynamic routing, clustering and most importantly: data replication (where is this in k8s?) since downtime is nothing compared to data loss

- resource limitation: cgroups

- isolation: the good old user and groups, vlans, firewalls

- orchestration, rollouts, rollbacks: CD pipelines, configuration management

Technically the only thing I find easier with k8s is bin packing.

The real advantage I find in containers and k8s is they became a standard. You don't have to learn the architecture that each company has designed for itself and dig into custom built solutions. So you can easily switch jobs and they can easily replace you. If you throw that away with custom container implementations for each PaaS offering and fragmentation of orchestrator solutions then you only get the complexity and no benefit. We're going to see in a few more years where it goes but I'm not exactly optimistic.
I can't speak for all of this, but my wife is a teacher and in the last decade she has seen pretty much no correlation between ballot initiatives with claims about giving schools money and meaningful improvements on campus. Usually nothing changes. Other times the money has so many strings attached that whatever changes didn't need to change, and is adjacent to something that obviously did.

Virology is far too complicated for non-experts to have any chance of finding a valid answer. We simply need to watch for and be careful of conflicts of interest. Any good expert, especially academic, knows the importance of disclosing conflicts and for bias, well, we can only hope that there are enough diverse experts that they will catch that.
The 12oz soda can?
So, honest question. if we're compiling our code to run on servers, why are we compiling it to run on a bytecode interpreter rather than native?

My single use for docker is to containerize / isolate, not to run across architectures.

I get the in-browser optimized / compiled code. That makes sense.
I think almost any card game is going to have some element of card counting unless card counting is completely impossible. It's like trying to play poker while ignoring the psychological elements of the game.
Controlling the transistor requires an intermediate step converting the sound to heat. In my book, this isn't really an 'acoustic' transistor. Phononic transistors have been proposed though[0]. Phononic transistors have been built, albeit with some magnets, but merely for their nonlinear mechanical properties[1]

[0] https://arxiv.org/abs/1509.00679

[1]https://www.pnas.org/content/114/18/4603
I recently read “To The Digital Age” (would recommend) which covers the history of the transistor and I left with a few takeaways:

- New transistor architectures can matter a lot (MOSFETs are why we enjoy the benefits of Moores law, BJTs wouldnt have gotten us here)

- It took an entire industry decades to mobilize the tooling, manufacturing, art, and science of a single architecture (MOS) even with related tools for BJTs

- Once an architecture shows promise, even giants like IBMs and its infinite funding cant fight against the tides

- Even when some people know an architecture is promising, organizational politics can prevent work on it

So, new architectures are always interesting but they have a huge slew technology transfer problems. But if theyre better in some way, they can find a niche and over time (decades) may turn into the next big thing. But I wouldnt hold my breath.
You don't need Windows for security. If you want isolation, run another Linux separate from your main one and use Wine there all the same.

> have been stuck in committee for years now.

I've been noticing this for years too and I've concluded that a significant driver is the fact that certain major corporations (eg Apple, Google, MSFT) who sit on central web standards committees feel their app store and operating system businesses would be threatened if the full potential of Web Assembly gets in standards, implemented and widely deployed.

Perhaps everything always bogging down in a way that delays or precludes fully unleashing these disruptive capabilities may not be entirely accidental. To be clear, I'm not asserting there's an intentional, pre-mediated conspiracy afoot. It's always a possibility, of course, but it's also possible that the various stakeholder business units inside these corporations are themselves conflicted, causing internal battles leading to confusion, delay and mixed signals on standards bodies. Sadly, that can end up having very much the same net effect as intentional sabotage.
I'm European and think in horsepower, not kW. Because I was born 40+ yrs ago. So what?

At one point being morbidly obese I get these antidotes. I had one doctor look at me and tell me if I wanted to wager with him that I would die before 45 (I didn’t, so should have taken the bet). I think it was some piss poor attempt at shocking me to action, which it didn’t do. The only thing it did was cause me to no longer go to him.

However, poor bedside manner aside…if your obese it is a pretty good bet that it’s going to kill you, and kill you early…which is why docs focus on it.
I read a bunch of the early Omicron research, and your assertion is kind of misleading.

Sure, the antibody reactivity tests are first because those tests are fast. But a ton of the subsequent research focused on observational studies to quantify relative hospitalization risk.
It’s a touch screen but doesn’t work when the car is in motion unless you input the right code to get it in a developer/maintenance mode. I haven’t bothered as the knob is much more ergonomic.

It's hard to comment on something this general. 1-1 meetings come in so many different contexts. One thing that I think is universal is what questions you ask and how good you are at listening. I offer one idea which is if you want to amplify whatever 1-1 meeting you have take it out of the room/building. Go for a walk, pretend you need to run out to the pharmacy and bring them along, get a coffee or drink. Be creative. I've had 1-1 meetings that were useless (Zoom is generally bad) and some that were transformative. It does take two to tango but you can at least bring your dancing shoes!

tesla was not even a notion when electric car charging was created. tesla did not create somethint feom nothing, other systems existed.

tesla making a patent pledgeh not early, in 2014- doesnt incentivize anyone to pick tesla's bespoke new charging technologies, if your cars wont reap the benefits of interoperability with their system. tesla didnt say their charging infrastructure would work with your cars, only that you could go make your own copies of either car or charger network.

your messaging is extremely strong & you raise some very good points. from my perspective though you are still concealing, hiding, denying more than hapf the facts. random irrelevant facts like teslas being able to consumer actual standards get thrown in, but of course tesla wants to be a parasite on othercs network externalities while providing no net benefit themselves, yet you describe this lopsided controlling behavior as if it's in their favor. you throw in non-network-effect charging as though it should have an impact on society growing positive network effects for itself: this also feels ultra-contrary to the point. even if true, it means i cant go to a friends and expect my non-tesla to get a charge.

everything here is shit. your "rebuttals" are examples of tesla insisting on their own game. you ignored the points about LV & the impossible-to-repair-out-of-network problems with tesla. i am not mived by your arguments, they feel distracting & misdirecting.

I am in a senior role; I have not relocated since the pandemic, but I have changed jobs, and I'm an hour behind my company's main office. My manager is two hours further behind me. We have employees across several timezones, including some in Europe who keep European time.

What our company does mostly works, with some caveats:

Officially, the office hours are 9AM to 6PM Monday - Friday, in EST. Theoretically, if you work regular hours, these are your working hours (minus lunch hour).

Semi-officially, different departments and teams set their own hours. Some departments, like customer service, are always available for exactly the official hours regardless of physical timezone - if you are a customer service rep in LA, you'd likely have to be be online at 6AM. I have quibbled with some departments (for instance, project management) which enforce this despite it not being strictly necessary, resulting in people having to be up early or logging off late for no good reason.

Unofficially, on my team, on my team, we work whatever hours they'd like so long as we a) make all our meetings, b) are available when we say we'll be available, and c) get work done. I work 10AM to 6PM my time, give or take an hour on both ends, Monday - Friday. My working hours are written down in my employee profile, which everyone has access to. If someone schedules a meeting with me earlier, I'll usually attend it, but I will ask for it to be moved if it's a recurring meeting. I have never been told this is an inappropriate request (I've never even been asked to provide a reason so far). Nobody's tried to schedule a later meeting with me yet, except ad-hoc calls between me and someone else who was also working late.

Sometimes, if I've had a late night, I'll take a nap for an hour or so in the middle of the day and work an hour later in exchange. On days when I don't nap, I will often take a walk for a similar amount of time if the weather is nice. I usually do these things later in the afternoon so I'm less likely to have urgent messages/calls. I have never hidden these activities, but I don't broadcast that I'm doing it outside my team. It's a nice routine.

Overall, I wish my company would embrace the semi-official/unofficial policy more officially, but I am generally happy with how they respect my time.
That may well be true. But back it up with good data or your good intentions mean nothing.

>Ruby even supports Perl regular expressions

No, Ruby Regexp is based on the https://github.com/k-takata/Onigmo library. There are plenty of differences compared to Perl, for example `^` and `$` anchors always match start/end of lines without needing a flag, subexpression syntax uses `\g` instead of `(?N)` and so on.
Wasm doesn't have to run in an interpreter. Many of the runtimes (like Wasmtime, Wasmer) compile the Webassembly to native machine code first. But that native code is still constrained by the Wasm security/sandboxing model, which includes memory isolation. (there is no direct memory sharing between the host and a Webassembly instance)

A few benefits why it is even useful in a server context:

You can distribute a single (small!) artifact and run it everywhere. On a developer machine, on Windows, on a x86 server, on an ARM server, ... Right now you have to build a separate Docker image for each architecture. And Docker is really a second class citizen on Windows.

Docker images have a huge dependency: an entire operating system syscall API and an entire userspace (with libraries, binaries, a file system, ...) The surface for a Wasm module is much smaller.

Building a Docker image is a somewhat redundant exercise of picking a base image, figuring out the dependencies, keeping it up to date, ... None of that should be necessary.

Security is another benefit. The vulnerability exposure of a Wasm module is much lower than that of an entire OS + userspace sandbox.

Wasm is designed around isolation. In addition, the interface types proposal + WASI is pushing capability based security that works by passing around capabilities, which is a pretty great model.

I outlined some more benefits here a few days ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30020121&p=2#30020964

I'd like to start by saying that it's a sad state of affairs. I don't agree with what he said but the fact that he was found guilty is unreasonable and sets a horrible precedent moving forward.

The article states that he was convicted under the Communications Act whose Wikipedia page[1] lists some other "notable prosecutions" - worth checking to know the other times where the UK government has overstepped themselves.

The Scottish Crown Prosecution Service has some guidelines[2] for prosecuting the "offensive content". In my eyes this tweet does not fulfil the criteria (although this may be covered under "national tragedy"so I hope he can appeal.

From the COPFS document:

Prosecutors should only consider action in this category of cases where they
are satisfied there is sufficient evidence that the communication goes
beyond being:

• Offensive, shocking or disturbing; or
• Satirical, iconoclastic or rude; or
• The expression of unpopular or unfashionable opinion even if
distasteful to some or painful to those subjected to it; or
• An exchange of communication that forms part of a democratic
debate

In some instances the context in which the comments are made will weigh in
favour of prosecutors being so satisfied, for instance where comments are
made following a particular incident, national tragedy or catastrophic event.
Such instances will most likely be readily apparent to prosecutors however it
may be that particular instructions are issued to prosecutors in response to
such incidents where the situation demands it.
