This assumes the docs written at the same time the code was changed is actually correct. This is an enormous assumption.

Documentation needs to be written as automated tests as far as humanly possible. I've worked towards this goal on iommi and it's been eye opening. Every time I run more code examples from the docs in the test suite I've found bugs.

The War on Iraq had initial bipartisan support but became a hyper-partisan issue, maybe less so politically than it was as a cultural war. There were immense antiwar rallies prior to the invasion. It became a defining wedge issue in popular culture. "Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists." But I'm speaking specifically about the U.S.
> And the average rent is about $1100/mo. About a third of the office worker's income. Federal taxes are another 11% or so. That leaves more than half of an average office worker's income for essentials like food, clothing and utilities.

This sounds like math done by someone who has never earned an income as low as $40k.

Some slightly more realistic numbers (rounding to nearest hundred):

Income - $40,000

Federal - $3100

State (variable, this is for CA) - $1000

Social security - $2500

Medicare - $600

Disability (again, CA) - $500

Total tax - $6700 in CA, maybe $5200 in a lower tax state

$13k annually for rent (in CA, that’s very cheap).

How much for health insurance? Probably $1k-$2k.

How much for transportation? That’s car payment/repairs, insurance, and gas in most places. This eats up a lot of disposable income for people.

Cable tv, cell phone, etc. also adds up quickly.

Oh, you better not have student loans. That will eat up more of your disposable income.

I have given some budgeting tips to people who make ~$50k working in California. At best, they can contribute the 5% for matching, but it’s tough. Things like increased gas prices, unexpected car repairs, medical issues, etc. are a huge fear and a major concern.

Sure, $40k is very livable in provincial parts of the US, but there are many many people who do not live in those areas but make that income.

Just trying to keep it real…

I watched a recent interview of Art Spiegelman just this week on Democracy Now!. IIRC, he flatly called the 10 voting board members "baffling" and "stupid" for banning it for a naked corpse of a cartoon mouse, hanged mice (like what happened), and saying "God damn" while being genocided!

It’s how you fire people in tech companies. You put them on a PiP, give them some tasks to do and then fire them when they don’t deliver. Obviously nobody survives the PiP because for an engineer not on a pip, taking 9 weeks on an 8 week project is pretty good, but on a pip 9 weeks for an 8 week project is a failure to deliver and you’re out. Obviously this is evil bullshit, but I’ve been in this industry for a very long time and this is what seems to happen.
I don't know whether the order of Netflix categories is something I wanted to change. Of course they optimise for people's attention (time spent in the app). And they use what works for most users. And it's nothing new, supermarkets have been doing this for ever.

At this point I think it is questionable whether the X16 will ever come out. There have been a lot of technical and supply issues, a lot of scope creep and drama in the community and there seems to have been no real significant progress updates in a long time.

An alternative that is finished and can be pre-ordered today is the MEGA65:

https://mega65.org/

I don't necessarily think a kid would be interested in a glorified recreation of the Commodore 65, but it's roughly equivalent to the X16 in a lot of ways. Just thought I'd mention it.
Some versions don't, like the GameBoy Micro and, in a sense, the Nintendo DS which includes the GBA CPU but not the GB one. There's already an emulator called Goomba that runs on the GBA, even in older GBA models it's useful because you can launch it from a GBA flashcart

There are only ~2 million section 8 housing vouchers available for ~330 million people. So no way 8% of the population are receiving them.

What we need now is someone giving an anecdote about how they're a published math researcher but at the job interview they screened him with Times Table Rock Star and gave him a take home to solve 20 quadratic equations.
Multiple things are making things seem this way, one is that the income model has significantly changed, from "we make good software, people pay us for it" to.. whatever sentence sums up the current state of exploitation.

Another reason are the proverbial rose-colored glasses.

Yet another reason is just curation and sampling issues, since we now have a whole category of shovelware and shovelware-hybrids, the chance you'll actually stumble upon the really good stuff, is just way lower..

Are we ready to pay for curation yet?

But Finland has only 5 million inhabitants, so the volume is nearly negligible on European scale. The big population centers are closer to each other and even agricultural hotspots.
Yeah that's true. We really need some service like blind where people can anonymously review and score managers. We need votes to prove that a manager is an ass hole. One anecdotal story isn't enough.

Maybe the service leaves the manager anonymous until the review amount crosses a certain threshold... 3 to 4 guys calling him out?

Submit this to ycombinator!
Glassdoor is kind of like that, and in my experience it is decently accurate too.
Your article shows that Java, Scala, and .NET are all faster than significantly faster than Go in latency and throughput, and can beat C++ as well.

This only affirms our point that JIT can keep up with, or beat, AOT already.
How could inflation ever eat through the grant power to the poor?? Doesn't make any sense, any inflation effect must be diluted through those it affects the most -- those with the most money.

The only way it could possibly go with UBI is that the poor receive a larger proportion of the total economic consumption.

Inflation cannot ever cancel out redistribution to the poor.

No matter how much inflation, the inflation reduces the buying power of everyone else -- the poor still receive a higher proportion of buying power than before.
Did you read the article?

> Ubuntu ships ZFS as part of the kernel, not even as a separate loadable module. This redistribution of a combined CDDL/GPLv2 work is probably illegal.
Not sure there's enough context here to make a judgement. 24 change requests in a year seems okay? How complex were they? 50% no-approval sounds ok if he was the sole maintainer of a particular part of the code/etc.

Maybe someone who's knowledgeable with the development of CDKs can shed some light on how reasonable those numbers are.
I love it when there are three pins clearly labelled "UART" or "Console", and when you wire up to it, it gives you a "Welcome, Hacker!" style banner message and a text interface to do the configuration.
Couple questions, though.

Is this architecture self-healing once you restore a day-old backup of one system or do you have to have a procedure to resync everything?

And if you need to have such a procedure, how do you make sure it will work when you need it?

Wouldn't event journals that could be both queried and streamed provide a more robust architecture?
What also makes it niche is getting the drives for free. When you're paying upwards of $30k for a petabyte of cold storage, tape is pretty tempting.
Let's just pretend the Holocaust didn't happen. Moonbeams, rainbows, and sunshine all the time. Oh and definitely don't teach the Armenian Genocide, WW1, WW2, The Trail of Tears, or slavery because that would hurt someones feewlings.

Yep, 3 KW is the "minimum contract" (but still very common for small flats) though there are of course no fuses anymore but a current limiting switch that trips and that can be re-armed, it allows peaks of about 20% more than target, older versions of these switches allowed higher peaks, so when they started replacing it with the new version which is more "strict" many contracts were upgraded to 4.5 KW because the limiter was tripping very often.

Traditionally the oven was (only in the last years electic ones have become prevalent/ubiquitous) gas-powered and that electric kettles are not common, so the typical tripping scenario is now electric oven cooking+ironing or (say) iron+dishwasher+washing machine.
I see it differently: when the distinction is between friend and enemy, there can be no politics, only war.
Holocaust denialism has no place here.

The great part is that unlike SVGs you don't need to include specific image files for each one, or worry about updating those files across lots of systems. Just update the font. Client wants to use their icons in their printed pieces? Just give them that font rather than a whole bunch of files. Include the font with articles for print, and the printer can outline all the graphics.

Tl;dr, fonts are just a fantastic way to bundle lots of vector files on a per-client basis. Plus most clients feel super special and cool that they have their own font!

And the tech we use is old. Old. We maintain these in FontForge, which is a Mac X11 app.
My impression is that rewrites are rarely worth the effort and it's better to improve on what you have, but this is the business economics perspective. It sounds to me like this is essentially a research hobby project that kept growing? The authors have managed to keep their interest in the project by being able to rewrite the code while avoiding previously made architectural mistakes and having fun while doing it? Is this a fair take or am I underestimating the advantages? To be clear, I read the blog post and there have definitely been tangible advantages and they are still enjoying the language 6 years in so it looks like they made a good choice.
I agree that types can help with sanity of data flowing in and out, but how do you check the correctness of program with types?

Example: your function is doing some complex calculation, while the inputs types can be strongly checked and output types can be checked, but the logic has to be tested by writing unit tests right?

The original comment which i replied to suggests that we can get rid of TDD only if we employ using type systems, which i feel is over exaggeration of the benefits of the types

These things are all related.
You got downvoted, but this is the only sensible response I have read here so far. It's like hearing all these spoiled kids complain about how company X or software Y should do this or that for them. Everybody on here deep down knows how it works, but it's all talk and no action.
Such a system is also likely to be abused, is it not?
Then don't run Wayland or Gnome and see how far you get without going insane. You seem to be forgetting that systems have become a lot more complex than 20 years ago and most people prefer for things to 'just work' instead of fiddling with the terminal to fix their wireless network or bluetooth headphone.
And after that there are some pesky security things like every X client being able to read and inject keystrokes in every other window. If you want meaningful security it's useless to cling to the decades old way of doing things.
If Duo ever moves on to passages and short stories, then it's only on a few of the trees, and only at the end level. I've done everything on the Irish (tested out, as I already speak it fluently) and it never rose above a few sentences being translated. And the French one that I've done so far (about half) is the same apart from the 'Stories' feature which really isn't that great as it just has you click missing words and doesn't ask about comprehension.

> Which leaves me lost in your premise of "true comprehension"?

"True comprehension" in a foreign language is, in my opinion, when you can read a full passage (not a random sentence or even something like Duo's stories) and answer questions about it. It doesn't have to be a literary passage, but it shouldn't be something as simple as "Translate to English: Mes frères sont gentils", as the French course often asks (and then only makes you pick words, not actually type). And the comprehension should be inferring something from the passage, not something you can get by just matching word patterns.

So, again, maybe DL does it later on in the French course, but it certainly isn't available in their (horrible, to be honest) Irish course.
The mathematicians are probably wrong. Mathematicians will have above average ability with arithmatics, but they're going to be meeting people who memorise pi to 50 decimal places or happen to calculate the sum of small cubic numbers for fun to pass the time and are really good at arithmetic.

What the mathematicians are probably cluing in to is the fact that around half of mathematicians are below median arithmetic ability in their immidiate academic community.

> But some people pretend that’s how all their work is, when in reality they take a week to fix a css misalignment, or take a week to refactor some simple python script and add one new command-line argument, and they average 50 LOC or whatever.

You already know what the problem with these people is (e.g. they can take a week to add a new command-line argument). Tying that to the LOC count is counterproductive.

Shitty managers like you who try to go against the well-known wisdom and try to use LOC as a metric are what leads to the problem of shitty developers trying to game that count and posting ridiculous metrics like "I checked in 51k LOC in January". Developers who treat their work as a craft will avoid shitty teams like that even if they otherwise do well on the LOC metric.
There are bad managers from all regions and races. On blind they were asking if it was an Indian. It does not matter if it was Indian or not. It only matters that it is an "Amazon" manager.

It would be for anyone: it's fairly trivial for any individual to spin up an Ethereum node and establish which wallet owns what at any given time, considering all of that information is public anyway. What Metamask does not have, is the ability to match wallet addresses with people, which in the end is the whole point.
Nah but the resolution there is company wide. I'm talking about a service that reviews individuals. Plenty of bad people in otherwise great companies.

The point of the review in my idea is not just to inform potential candidates, but to push individual managers to become better. When your actions have real consequences towards your reputation then you will be mindful of your actions.

And I suspect, this is what makes math grind its own gears.

The way math is "built", with too generalizing theorems, non-constructive statements, etc makes it fall into traps like the Russel's Paradox (which literally cannot exist "in real life" - not even for the very wide definition of mathematical real life).

Building math on saying "this exists" without actually building towards what it is, is a bit of a "sin".

Worse, it's contextual within the same individual: the person who wants to customise the car doesn't want to make their own sourdough pizza from type-00 flour, and customised web browser. And vice versa: each thinks "why waste time on that other thing"?
