Geez, that post is a good example of the WSB approach to hand-waving the details. These always come off like the "do it" video equivalent for trader advice. But there is some general market sentiment in there that is kind of a buried lede. Deciding to trade a situation like this right now should involve much more than just information about Facebook, and definitely more than just how dead one thinks they are.

> mars is nothing more than a further, more annoying version of the Moon.

I would say the opposite. Compared to the Moon, Mars has:

- A day-night cycle more suited to humans that’s nearly identical to that of Earth (Moon colonies will need to be in polar areas to avoid long stretches of no sunlight)

- A more temperate climate with less dramatic temperature swings

- Gravity likely high enough for most processes and machines developed on Earth to work correctly

- No sharp, statically charged regolith

- An abundant, readily available source of Co2 for use in production of fuel, oxygen, and other materials

The primary downside is longer transit time, but that can be overcome with smart planning and could be seen as a boon in the long run since it’s a forcing factor in developing self-sustainability — moon colonies will likely remain Earth-dependent for much longer than they need to simply due to how convenient it is to get things shipped from Earth.

> It's the users fault for misusing the service.

I believe, AWS' usage-based billing make for long-tail surprises because its users are designing systems exactly as one would expect them to. For example, S3 is never meant for a bazillion small objects which Kinesis Firehose makes it easy to deliver to it. In such cases, dismal retrieval performance aside [0], the cost to list/delete dominate abnormally.

We spin up a AWS Batch job every day to coalesce all S3 files ingested that day into large zlib'd parquets (kind of reverse VACCUM as in postgres / MERGE as in elasticsearch). This setup is painful. I guess the lesson here is, one needs to architect for both billing and scale, right from the get go.

How are you suggesting we "do something" about it? Lowering margins will not fix scarcity, it may even make it worse, so this seems more like a resentment of "they have more than other people" and thinking that it is wrong, not so much a concern over scarcity. There was a proposal to do something, stop increasing liquidity and raise rates, because these are some primary levers we have available to "do something" about the economy.
I've had an ... interesting ... experience having made the Leaders page, and at one point suggested to dang that the feature might be removed.

I later heard from someone else who'd made the list and had somewhat similar responses to it.

A big chunk of responsibility for teams doing cloud devops is cost attribution. Cloud costs are incurred by services and those services are owned by teams. Those teams should be billed for their costs and encouraged (via spiffs or the perf process if necessary) to manage them. Devops' job is to build the tooling that allows that to happen.

It does seem like there are some folks out there who, for some reason, want to be overly broad as a way of rejecting an idea more intensely. I don't really get this instinct. In particular:

> I know many people who were labelled a "consipracy theorist" for saying the virus came from Wuhan lab

It was always the case that the right answer to this is, "we haven't seen enough evidence to say this is the case. It is possible, but there are also lots of natural sources it could have come from." This is still the case as far as I know. (?)

"Insufficient evidence of X so far" being misinterpreted as "X is impossible and if you believe in X you are a bad person" is pretty much the story of science communications for this pandemic. It seems like a really big problem.

> they were labelled nutjobs for saying that the government would implement vaccine passports to restrict where you could and couldn't go.

Restricting movement was always on the table. If someone was called a nutjob for understanding that, the person who called them a nutjob wasn't really taking the situation very seriously. The conspiracy theorist (in the pejorative sense) angle comes from the implication that there's some evil behind-the-scenes motivation for it, when it is just an expected pandemic response.

> They said the government would force you to be vaccinated, etc.

Same here. Mandatory vaccinations have always been a possibility in some places. That's not a conspiracy theory (in the pejorative sense). The idea that this implies some malicious behavior on the part of the government, is.
What are some examples of this extreme and blatantly obvious manipulation? Certainly it happens but you're making it sound like we live in the Truman Show.
I believe what’s bizarre about the policy is the following:

1. Buyer pays Amazon $xx for sale of audiobook.

2. Amazon credits publisher $xx and debits published 40-83% of $xx for handling fees.

3. Buyer is refunded $xx by Amazon

4. Amazon debits publisher $xx.

So as I understand the thread, Amazon is doing the equivalent of charging a ‘restocking fee’ equal to their share of the sale price, so that the publisher ends up paying out of pocket.

(Corrections welcome if I misread here.)
I think that's a matter of perspective. Front-end development tools are more diverse because there are more devs working in that sector and there are more diverse needs.

If you look at Windows platform there's Win32, WFP, UWP, etc. On Linux there are Qt, Tk, GTK, and more. Some old, some buggy, some ugly. It's the same thing.

Rose tinted glasses you're wearing.
Yeah, I'm not sold on the "FLOSS is more secure" idea either. Good on you for trying to write down some arguments against it. But unfortunately, comparing the security of closed-source software to the security of open-source software is too difficult. You'd basically have to take two competing programs, one open, one closed, and spend many human-hours trying to hack both, and then publish your results. I believe that in such a test, open-source would perhaps have MORE security bugs. That's just what my gut tells me.

Instead, people simply look at the number of security holes patched, and see that FLOSS projects report and fix many more holes. So surely FLOSS is more secure, right? Or, they rely on folk wisdom like "With enough eyes all bugs are shallow" which aren't any more proven in the real world than "FLOSS is more secure".

> But to charge for a subscription to just use an offline app?

So, if they make you sign in to their service to use the app, you would be ok with a subscription? Do you want/expect that app to be updated/supported over time?

As someone who grew up with purchased box software followed by the pervasive availability of open source software, I severely dislike subscriptions for software products. In fact, auto-renew subscriptions in general are often a dark pattern IMHO. OTOH, I have to imagine that as a developer, if an app I produce is going to be used by 100 people, I can't financially sustain it by selling it for $2 one time. Also, if it's niche enough or novel enough to be difficult to reproduce, I can get away with a subscription.

I think you hit the nail on the head with "But in every case those apps are providing me with a great value." Each developer is effectively a small business trying to create a product in exchange for money. If they price it too high or have unlikeable terms, they lose customers.

I don't understand what you mean by "trying to spin this", or how that, whatever it means, is not helpful. Helpful towards what? Admittedly I don't know if there has been a successful effort that breaks or otherwise proves OpenBSD's non-blocking solution as insecure, but I'd be glad to read any conclusions if you have any to share - it's why I asked about the reasons behind Linux developers' objection to the solution.
I left iOS/MacOS development a few years ago for the same reasons. It was never ending soul sucking battle with AppStore reviewers' bs, bureaucracy, everbroken tools (in order to develop for new iOS you have to update xcode, which requires updating macos, go buy a new macbook that supports it), total absence of CI/CD, troubles with testing, the list goes on, and on, and on.

I hated it, eventually moved to backend development and never looked back.

If you make a "clone" of a popular game, you may be infringing on the original developer's copyright under U.S. law (which jurisdiction Apple is bound to). See Atari v. Philips. It doesn't matter that you used different code, different assets, or changed small things about your game. The relevant criteria are "access" and "substantial similarity" (as an audiovisual work).
The only non-parasitic loans are those given at 0% interest, which is inline with the three religions. Of course the follow up question is how would you run a bank or business that profits from loans? The answer is: you don't. Society is strictly better off without such parasites.

There are other ways for true risk sharing such as paying someone with a business idea cash in exchange for a portion of his business. If it succeeds, both parties benefit, if it doesn't, both parties lose.

> and hence not a very objective method of measurement.

It is very possible to measure the outcome of such system. Look at our current financial system today how corrupt it is, and compare it to the financial laws that Islam defines and the financial health of the resulting societies in each. Wall St would have to be shut down because of the immoral and parasitic practices it engages in (shorting, selling what you don't own, options, selling debt for debt, loans and mortgages, money printing (we know who's in bed with the fed) etc. etc.). The problem is that people keep believing they can patch the system to make it work out, but in actuality, the system only benefits a select few at the top, while everyone else suffers. The end is not going to be pretty when it all comes crashing down.

Have you noticed a pushback against FLOSS? I'd be interested if that's the case.

I went out of my way in this post to make it clear that I'm vehemently in support of FLOSS for a solid list of reasons; it's just that "security" is far lower on that list than some readers would think. There's a reason I only decided to post this months after two of my previous posts in support of FLOSS gained traction ;).

Unfortunately, "FLOSS doesn't imply security, but it's certainly helpful. Just set your expectations straight and remember that security isn't a checklist but an emergent property that stems from a variety of factors uncovered through detailed analysis" is a bit too long of a title so I had to make one that looked like I was picking a side before making it clear that I wasn't. Titles aren't good at capturing nuanced views.
> I'm talking about why people don't think it's worth engaging with to begin with.

But that's not what the author is talking about in his article - you did read it, right? His book is drawing criticism from people who haven't read it. It's fine to choose not to engage with something, but if you're going to comment on it you should read it.
As someone with firsthand experience in this field: it's not worth your time. Getting GTK4 to work in other desktops is a shitshow in the first place (it has horrible rendering issues on x11/Plasma configs), but all of the good stuff like gtk::Builder and connect-closures have been removed, making imperative development an enormous pain in the ass. If you still manage to make an app despite that mess, you'll be left with horrible font rendering issues that can only be fixed with a very specific Flatpak configuration (hope you didn't want to run your own app natively!) and by the time you've got it all figured out you'll probably be looking into Qt.

Please, just use GTK2 or GTK3 if you're planning on making non-GNOME apps. GTK4 is simply not finished yet.
I just checked, running the latest version, which I just signed up for, and the default vault is Private. I have never touched that setting and it was always set to Private. So either the behavior has changed or it is incorrect that it ever defaulted to Shared (which wouldn't make any sense whatsoever for a company this focused on privacy).
I can't recall the last time that NAT caused me any problems. Is it still an issue these days?
When I was growing up here in the US, to me the Royal Canadian Mounted Police always had an aura of honor. Those days are gone. Civil disobedience in Canada today means you may have your money removed from your account by law enforcement unless you cave and fall in line.
What is the overhead of maintaining a null object? In most cases it can be a more or less global reference to an object without significant data and the cost is simply writing a "null" implementation of appropriate interfaces (which could already exist for free, for example empty strings).

What programming language and what kind of objects are you having trouble with?
>The US didn't have a "wealth tax" in the 1950s, it had a very high marginal income tax rate which applied to a tiny slice of earners.

The net effect was the same. Putting an effective cap on income throttles wealth inequality growth.

>A wealth tax would be hard / impossible to implement

It absolutely would be. Any political effort to do so would be sabotaged every step of the way by institutions dedicated to protecting enormous agglomerations of private wealth.

Moreover, closer it got to the finish line the more willing American oligarchs would be to flirt with political violence and ally with and organize the underlying, disorganized currents of fascism in order to keep their wealth.

This is a path we've been along before, almost 100 years ago.

However, the US middle class was more willing to organize and fight to protect its interests back then. There were actual communists among them and the US government was legitimately afraid enough to kowtow to their demands every so often. Not any more.
I had no idea there was an e-nose project out there. Is e-nose a field with active research or is it something that's seen as being just too hard/cross disciplinary?

I disagree; you add complexity to a stack for a reason, usually to provide functionality that would be difficult to reproduce otherwise.

Hand-building a reactive (lowercase r) table with sorting, filtering, etc. that's performant at large data volumes to keep your stack "simple", would be a nightmare to maintain and wouldn't allow other developers to bring prior experience with them when they later have to maintain that code.

The US had a whole host of laws that made pulling out cash from businesses very expensive, but investing in them very easy.

So you had a strong incentive to increase salaries, hire more workers, invest in more machinery, diversify, etc. simply because getting more cash out of a business wasn't worth it

Apple can just very publicly and visibly issue disclaimers that it is not responsible for the after effects of users installing non-App Store content. Just as it does not offer coverage for water damage to MacBooks. Then the boundaries are made clear, and user anger will be directed at whatever malicious third party instead of Apple itself.
Yes, if everyone agreed that your definition of fairness were the right one (which I personally do) then there'd be no problem. But in practice there will be people who want to use other ones (in some cases because they want to be able to say it's discriminatory).
Being a renter definitely kept me lighter for a long time.

I am not aware of any keypad zigbee or z-wave door lock that depends on that network to unlock in standard config. Yes, you could set it up that way, to unlock based on presence detection, etc, but that's on you. The standard setup is a local code list on the lock, with updates and status reported to home automation to enable integration. Most locks also have a standard key backup as well, so you're doubly protected.
