Well written. I think that airflow is being enforced in organizations as the main orchestrator even though it's not always the right too for the job. In addition, organizations has to enforce a micro-services approach to have modular components. Besides that managing those frameworks is a nightmare. We built Ploomber (https://github.com/ploomber/ploomber) specifically for this reason, modular components and easy deployments. It standardize your pipelines and allows you to deploy seamlessly on Airflow, Argo (Kubernetes), Kubeflow and cloud providers.
It may be okay, Redhat has been fine under IBM. I'm just pessimistic by nature, I'm not disappointed that often, and delightfully surprised sometimes, if infrequently. Just because you have a pessimistic outlook on life doesn't mean you can't enjoy it, I think it's more of a Buddhist (some forms anyway) way of expecting suffering and delighting in the joy of life nonetheless.
Man, I'd work there just for the business card. Some things you really can't buy.
As a fellow perfectionist who has started a company, one thing that has helped me is realizing that most decisions are a lot more reversible than they appear. Even in the legal and financial domain, most things that you might obsess over are fixable if you make a mistake, and decent lawyers will tell you which ones you really have to avoid. Sometimes it'll cost you money and time, but the biggest cost is avoiding making decisions.

Always remember, no decision is a decision. Usually that's the worst choice because almost any decision, even a wrong one, at least moves the ball in some direction, allowing you to gather more information. The only guarantee in this game is that stasis will kill you, so bias towards action. When in doubt, try to evaluate "most probable bad outcome" which is different from "worst possible outcome".

Good luck!
I understand it's a technical jump, but it seems like a more tractable one than substantially reducing the cost of scale production.
Saying that modern monitors are more color accurate that CRTs really undersells the difference. Having been a professional photographer before a button presser, I feel I have a need to step in here. This narrative is so, so horribly wrong.

Nearly any given color CRT (in the 90's era) has a far flatter visual spectral response than modern ubiquitous displays. Each color has meaningful contrast; whereas the typical blue-LED is heavily weighted towards blue.

Even if a new display measures better, your brain interprets color from a tube better.

The only established displays today that approach that flatness (exceed them) are genuine three-color OLED displays, which are prohibitively expensive as packaged as a computer monitor.

I have some mild hope for new display technologies that I'm hearing about. I'm betting we are five years, at a minimum, before displays with that color quality are common.
`curl cht.sh/latency` illustrates potential bottlenecks quite well given how succinct it is.
You can find me pretty easily from my username as well as a fairly long history of my posts about my medical issues.

If I were going to LARP on HN, I’d find something much more fun to LARP about. I only really mentioned it because after writing things out I definitely saw how it might look like I’m trying to be a dick commenting on things I’d presumably not know much about.
I would rather not get into that discussion here because it could quickly turn into a "that's not really trans-erasure" argument. However, if you are interested in a link to a flagged&dead comment, I can work with you to send you one that I saw just six days ago.
The bottom line is that when you need to redact text, use black bars covering the whole text. Never use anything else.

That actually may not be enough if you're applying the black bar to compressed image data like JPEG because compression artifacts surrounding the black bar can be leaking information about the covert data.
That's really strange, I've got it set as the default in Firefox on 3 different computers (2 mac 1 windows) and it's stayed the default over several updates. I think something might be wrong with your computer?
> I imagine making A5 graded meat in a bioreactor is beyond the state of the art. It might also have trouble in the marketplace. And from what I know those cattle live pretty nice lives until they’re slaughtered. Which, if done properly, is painless because the brain is instantaneously destroyed.

I agree that it doesn't achieve the moral/social/climatological objective immediately, but as a business strategy to get to that objective later it seems like a better approach.
>Consciousness is an emergent phenomenon entirely dependent on and contained within the brain.

How would one falsify this?
The extension just downloads a .bin file from Google and writes it onto the USB stick. There's a separate recovery tool Google provides for Linux users. I imagine it will be available via that script shortly.

Well thanks for this summary :-).
I recognize myself in this story, but I wouldn't say that I mean to be mean or dismissive or superior. Usually it's that I fall into the trap of being 'too literal'. We spend all day being very precise about the conditions and cases where we are making changes, amendments, or extending capabilities. It drives me crazy when people won't just get to the point of the story or ask that can be scoped-out if-and-as necessary. I'm not talking about interacting with inexperienced people either, they're otherwise very intelligent and articulate but have a way of speaking that seems all so inefficient or ineffective, often adding lots of emotional embellishments that don't change the problem statement.

Now, I'm not usually as unaware of insensitive as that description may sound, but you may be able to see some truth in the patterns.

[I kind-of feel like I'm on a rant, so I'll add this too. The worst is when engineers at a meeting debate the 'root cause' theorizing all the permutations and possibilities to identify the correct one, taking as long as that takes. Often a simple search through the source-code or log files would have narrowed it down to but a few to easily verify--but they'd rather be playing RCA golf out loud.]
No thanks.
I like having control over my machine. I don't want it turned into a glorified thin client.

Might as well be honest about the fact that we're moving back to the timesharing systems of the eighties.
The vast majority of people won't be able to beat the total compensation packages of big tech by starting their own business. It's a pretty simple decision from a money perspective if you're honest about your chances.
They own the hubs but the drivers are technically contractors like all the others.
Aside from pay, having SpaceX on your resume will probably open doors in the future that having some cost center company may not.

Pretty sure SpaceX and Tesla would pay competitively to most cost center companies too. Though I hear Elon works his employees hard.
I tried to find a counterexample and I couldn't! I believe you that quotes really are working. What's confusing though is that a quoted word or phrase often doesn't show up in the Google results snippets. This is certainly the reason why people think quotes aren't being respected.

Though, why does enabling "Verbatim" (in tools) on a search reduce the number of search results if all my terms are already quoted? Enabling Verbatim often does it make it feels like my queries are interpreted more literally, but if quotes are already being respected I don't understand how Verbatim would reduce the number of search results.
> having other bigger problems that are more deserving of resources.

They just have fewer resources. But saying they "don't really care" is like saying that somebody who skips buying medicine to buy food doesn't really care about medicine.
Metager.org is my go to google search replacement. I imagine (although my German is non native) that the German search results are quite good. . . it being a German search engine. To be honest it the only search engine to get me off google - DDG is OK, as is searx, but I kept going back to the dirty G until Metager.
I wonder if there's C compiler written in shell that's good enough to bootstrap something like gcc?
> Netflix should be putting out nothing but hits.

That's not how the entertainment business works. If I had to guess, Netflix's data-driven approach to content production is like card-counting in blackjack. It only gives them a slight edge on the house. A net positive outcome over hundreds or thousands of hands but offering no guarantee over the outcome of any single hand.

> HBO and AMC are running laps around Netflix

Netflix did win the most Emmys in 2021.[1] And they only started producing original content in 2013 or so. That's pretty good.

Same. I'm definitely worried that they'll become more corporate as part of this, but at the same time a lot of those changes have already happened. When I first started using Linode, they had Rickrolls in their X-Mailer headers for all requests. It was honestly something that made me choose them in the first place - it felt like it was being made by people who would pay attention to those small things.

I've been super happy with their service over the decade I've been using them, but I've steadily been using Vultr more and more recently.
Or energy in Joules, which are around 10^19 bigger. So you'd have the inverse of that everywhere as an inconvenient factor.

As it happens eV works nicely from meV up to TeV for particles in all the most useful contexts, from chemical bonds to particle experiments. You only start getting insanely huge factors when you stop being subatomic.
There's a problem with this approach. If the client thinks it's in state X, and sends a command that's only valid in state X, but it turns out that the client was lagging and was actually in state Y, the server has to reconcile this discrepancy somehow.

For example, in an FPS you turn a corner, see an enemy and shoot them. But unbeknownst to the client a grenade exploded just beyond the corner killing the player before the shot got off.

Now we have to deal with the mess of the client thinking you just shot somebody while you were actually already dead. While it's true that this is "simply" a client-side issue, you'll hear endless complaints from players who, from their perspective, turned a corner and shot the enemy and then died to a grenade, but for some reason their shot didn't connect and to them it seems unfair.

Another scenario: An enemy client is approaching a corner. The server sends you their position because it estimates they'll continue moving beyond the corner. You see the enemy and shoot them. But then the enemy client's lagging input comes in and they actually stopped short of turning the corner! How do we reconcile the fact that you've seen and shot an enemy you shouldn't have been able to?
For example, my https://NN-512.com is served by a Nanode in Linode's Fremont datacenter (45.56.92.68).

That same Nanode has been running the back-end of an Android app for almost 5 years, on another port.
Beware of corona leaks, if you can really hear it and smell ozone you might have bigger problems than just noise.

BART West Oakland station, last stop just before the tunnel to San Francisco. Look to your left, just outside the parking lot. Years ago it was a ship rope warehouse, before that? listed as a superfund site, it might be some community organizing house now. Burning Man central warehouse is on the other side of the parking lot, which IMO is completely compatible.
Also we don’t dislike delayed cord clamping - our parents delay for max two mins! :)
You know, except for the fact that none of that is on your machine.
Let me give my perspective. At this point, my deadname doesn’t carry the same weight it once did. I can joke about it now because it doesn’t feel like my name any more, but, when I started my transition, I had a very different relationship with it. Back then, hearing my deadname was a quick way to dig up all of the pain and dysphoria that had driven me to the brink of suicide. It represented a chapter of my life that I desperately wanted to close out. I needed to feel like I was free to redefine myself in a way that was independent from all of the pain of my pre-transition life, but my deadname felt like a ball and chain that was holding me back. In fact, looking back at the last 2 years of transition, I’d say changing my name and pronouns was the second most important step to escaping my depression. (The most important was starting hormone therapy.)

This isn’t a uniquely trans feeling, either. I have friends who had very bad relationships with their parents — so bad that they changed their last names. Like me and my deadname, my friends said that hearing their old family name could dredge up a lot of unpleasant memories. Like me, they wanted to put some distance between themselves and their pasts.

Yes, many people change their family name when they get married, and those people usually don’t freak out when they hear their original surname. However, that should not be considered representative of how everyone feels.
I'm with the other guy, a couple years max. In the meantime maybe digital ocean or vultr? I'm not sure how you're using linode but you might give those two a gander.

dude the fact that you are sooo touchy about this and jump immediately to the defensive with this sea lion shit the second someone impugns the conversational style of hn. it really undercuts that sense of detached impartiality you like to front with otherwise.

anyway man we made up our minds already that's kinda the point. hn has a lot going for it but it also sucks pretty hard, in some ways that are very difficult to quantify but nevertheless are real! I'm sorry that hurts to hear and I'm more sorry that you're so sure it can't be the case that you can't see it.
How about uBlock Origin, but for search? A crowd-sourced + manually vetted ban list at the domain level. Google is too timid and can't just permaban low quality SEO spam domains for fear of getting sued, instead they can only tweak the algorithm. But a community solution has no such limits.

Copying Stack Overflow questions and answers to your site? Entire domain is banned, no appeal process, nobody using "uBlock Origin for Search" will ever see your site again. Boom, done.

Maybe it could be done as an extension? It puts a little ban button next to a search result on google.com, that instantly bans the domain locally for you, and also nominates the site for the global ban list.

I feel like there's a lot of low hanging fruit here, like completely banning just the top 1000 SEO sites would already dramatically improve the results.
10 to 1 it works well anyway.
First word it gave me was "devel" which isn't in any of my dictionaries.
> Cryptocurrencies are beanie babies: Once available for a trifle, their value has ballooned based on speculation. But that already happened, you missed out on it, and it has no bearing on their future prospects. And if a bunch of people ever feel the need to cash out at once, they'll find out just how much value they really have when there's nobody buying.

Can you describe the situation where nobody is buying? People may abandon Bitcoin but some sort of crytocurrency will be used by criminals. I am unable to imagine a future where Cryptocurrency does not exist. I am curious what you imagine will happen to crypto that it will be useless for criminals.
I disagree that bash needs to be cryptic, but I've also written perl code, so maybe any resemblance of a sane perspective was beaten out of me.

> It's practically impossible to write correct Bash without shellcheck.

I agree with this, since I've never seen a bash script, in the wild, that passed the important bits of shellcheck, without already being passed through spellcheck. I challenge anyone that thinks they've written good bash, with any significant level of complexity, to run that script through shellcheck. Each time I've done this, when starting at a new company, the response has usually been "Will not fix. That's why you don't use spaces in filenames/paths".

For double beta decay, it wouldn't change anything, since neutrinos are not Majorana particles in the standard model.

For cosmology, it would suggest something about our understanding of the big bang or early universe is wrong. I'm less familiar with cosmology, however, so I'm not sure in what way things might change. We'd need a new way to explain why matter is less clumpy than it should be due to the massive neutrinos, or why there weren't as many neutrinos then as we think there should have been.
> There is no guarantee that, if it accomplishes “something”, the change it induces will not have negative value.

So now you're arguing that constituents urging their politicians to do something is more likely to make them do the opposite?

> Does alcohol produce real social harms?

Yes.

> Was Prohibition doing something instead of nothing?

Yes.

IMO, probably yes.

(The negatives came from anti-Prohibition.)
4x a small number is still a small number. I think "brutal" is a little sensationalist.
Have you seen the improvements china has made? In terms of wealth and technology the country is projected to surpass US GDP in the near future.

I would say the subconscious sentiment is reversing only fairly recently. Groups like BTS are changing the game. Among the youngest generations Asians are seen very differently.

However the overall sentiment will remain for most our lifetimes.

>Yeah, but SFH aren't the only housing type appreciating. This theory doesn't really hold when you consider both Condos, inner city locales, rural locales etc have also experienced rapid price appreciation.

What theory? That people who are priced out of SFH buy condos, townhomes and other type of housing? What do they do, keep renting and enjoy 30% yoy rent bumps instead?

I think the issue is how people approach the purpose of conversation.

Many internet forum conversations take the form of arguing or debate. That is to say, the goal is getting to the bottom of a dispute showing someone that they are wrong (or learning that you are).

People who do this often fall into the habit of defaulting to this mindset and goal in conversations where this is not the purpose.

"no way, it must work" is a non-optimal but perfectly valid conversation starter. The problem is when there isnt follow up on the real point of the conversation (helping dad), because they treated the interaction as an argument to be won.

>My dad told me that he wants to dabble in programming, but MySQL isn’t compatible with his laptop. My response? "Yeah there’s no way that’s true. MySQL will work on anything." Instead of taking a look at this laptop and working on the problem with him, I just told him that he's wrong and he doesn't know what he's doing (basically).

The other example is even more telling:

>my ex-girlfriend once told me that hospitals can’t require their staff to wear N95 masks at all times -- only regular masks. I immediately said "I don’t believe that. They can probably do whatever they want." Instead of being empathetic toward a nurse after a 12-hour shift, I was more concerned over hospital policy.

The ex-girlfirend isnt looking for a spirited argument or debate after a long day. They dont care about who is right or wrong, or getting to the factual bottom of things. The author is dragging this mindset into a conversation where it is unwanted and doesn't belong.
Long haul fiber optic stuff has gotten a lot fancier as far as the modems at either end are concerned (the fibers too, to a lesser extent) but the basic culture of laying and maintaining cable is pretty much the same.
