Every era is an era of horrible films. That’s Sturgeon’s law for you.

Looking at the 2010s as a whole, we got to watch some amazing films.

We got great hard sci-fi like Gravity, Arrival, Ex Machina. The coming of age genre saw entries like Ladybird, Eighth Grade and Booksmart. Animation reached new heights with films like Inside Out, Spider-Man into the Spiderverse, and Kubo and the Two Strings.

We got comedies like The Artist, Grand Budapest Hotel, Death of Stalin, and Jojo Rabbit. Dramas like Moonlight, Fences, Spotlight, Parasite, Blue Jasmine.

Even in the ever-popular comic book genre, we got Logan and Joker playing at a very different level.

But also, it was the decade of the MCU. Let’s not underestimate what Disney has achieved with that — one big overarching story spanning over twenty films, bringing much deeper character development and more serious themes than what we’d gotten used to from blockbusters.
I think the design behind Kubernetes served one purpose, normalize people's workloads. Not to reach Uber or Netflix scale. That is important in the context of the history, and I care because I don't think it is a very good product, because of this very reason.

It was definitely rushed to market, they say it in the video, and all the major players in the ecosystem, IBM, Redhat, Google, and VmWare, all wanted a piece of that pie, because all of them were barely treading water.

I don't think that is how market share is measured.

I am not sure how you decrease the power of the big 3 like this. Kubernetes does not solve that issue. I agree it is an admirable ambition, but I think you would have better luck trying to regulate them like utilities.
Could these devices (or better yet their web-based software emulations available) be part of a "decluttered" or "focused" productivity workflow?
You give em boring work
> Self reporting of taxes is standard in many countries for this reason.

A person up the comment chain in Spain said that's not the case there, and i can confirm the same for France - everything they know is pre-filled, and it's up to you to declare the rest. Of course some people will underreport, but so will those willing to in the American system ( for tips, cash payments, freelancing they can be fairly certain the IRS can't know). Nothing changes besides middlemen lining their pockets and regular people losing time.
The same is in Norway, although one have to justify it. For example one cannot get a visa to China if one has a stamp from Taiwan. So if one needs to travel to both often, then one can apply for the second passport.
It won't end for anyone who can stay relevant and adopt to the new tech.

It will end for everyone who is stuck at current tech which will be "past" in the future, both for tooling/tech and most importantly mindset.

For example, React Native and Solidity pays well nowadays. I know they will probably be replaced with something else (in terms of demand, not necessarily an immediate technical successor). If I don't start learning whatever-comes-next-in-my-field, I'd stay in the past, no matter how good I get on React Native or Solidity.
But if they can’t prove that you committed a terrorist act or we’re planning to then there’s no proof that you lied in the application…
Nope, only in some EU countries, e.g. Germany.

In Portugual you really need a very good reason for a 2nd passport and being convenient for tourism isn't one.
I'm heavily into retro computing, and my cut off year is 2000. Anything newer than that is not 'retro' in my book. For vintage computing though, I think it would be before the IBM PC, so 1981.
- Active listening

- No judging

The active listening you can learn from books (there are good book recommendations here already).

No judging is just practice (or if you prefer, practice _suspending judgement_)
Thanks for the explanation!

Yes, I would advise against taking Google as an explanation. As far as I can tell, Google does have some 'secret sauce' that takes in good people and turns that into revenue. And in some sense, the market pays for that secret sauce in the sense that (going by your numbers) they only need to pay out 10% of their revenue as salary. (Though part of that is also just that they have other costs, like actually running data centres.)

I suspect the average employee at Google would find it quite a lot more uncomfortable to get the same total compensation from a company they just founded.

I've worked at Google before, and I've also been on a PIP before.
In many areas cars can qualify for collector plates at 25 years old ( and other requirements like condition).

So depending on your definition of retro vs collector vs vintage...
Yes. It’s optional. Even if you don’t answer they still do a brief look. I had a “ Public Safety Professional in the Law Enforcement industry from Washington DC-Baltimore Area” look at my linkedin when I got my latest ESTA a few weeks ago. Not sure if that’s because it had been 18 months since my previous one expired.

>C# is becoming a dominant systems language

In 2022 everything is a system programming language. Next on that list is Javascript, I am sure.
I meant that it is not legal to use a second passport as a workaround to support a lie about your travel history. Lying to enter the US is illegal regardless of the number of passports you have.
> Someone told me that they were afraid to share their vulnerabilities with me because they feared I might not be comforting or even give them more anxiety.

When we see someone we care about suffering we want to be everything they need, but that's not always possible.

I applaud your plan to work on your ability to comfort and express compassion and hope you find the growth you're looking for, but I just wanted to point out that listening skills and communication strategies may not be the issue here.

For instance, my wife and I can't always understand each other's work problems because we have very different jobs. Meanwhile my boss might be the most compassionate person on earth but I would be uncomfortable discussing personal problems with him.
How can they not have proof you are lying about being a terrorist if they don't have proof you are a terrorist, thus lying? Are you sure it's not ridiculous?
I don't think ML will ever be able to write code [video]
Other people know more than me but the times are good now because the VC's are playing a ponzi scheme (or greater fool theory). Each VC puts in money simply because the valuation will go up and there would be another VC wanting in, willing to pay more. VC's have a lot of cash for whatever reason, low interest rate or Oil money. Hot take: this is not dissimilar to what is happening to crypto.

We developers are just part of this game, just incidental to the story. We are paid more simply because a lot of money comes in from top, not for some nonsense like we are "highly skilled" or the supply is less.

Yes I do believe that most of tech is a zero sum game, hardly any value is created.

Where does it end? It ends when VC's get bored of this game and move on to other things
Not if you like flutter.
Also, it's not clear that this actually leads to better outcomes for South Koreans either if you look at any sort of economic data.

Three quarters of South Koreans are college graduates but only 30% of jobs require a college education.
It has to be said: there are people who can get by without JavaScript and those who can't. You can almost predict those who can and those who can't by their personality.

If you are heavy user of Google's services, Twitter and Facebook as well as many big news outlets and heavy-duty commercial sites then you're the 'JavaScript' type and stopping scripts is definitely not for you!

If you are like me and don't have any Facebook, Twitter or Google accounts and deliberately avoid large commercial sites like, say, Microsoft then you can happily switch off JavaScript and experience the 'better' web.

You know the type of person you are, so with this fact in mind there's no point me proselytizing the case for disabling JavaScript.

I don't think the point was Kotlin and Swift vs. Java and Objective-C, but merely these native languages (listing the current generation) instead of, say, JavaScript.
You can get a second US passport with limited validity. Great when you need to apply for visas but also have other international travel going on. And sometimes it's convenient for hiding visa stamps of one country from another country.
>That’s a pretty big "just", though.

It is, but for me the pros outweigh the cons. In particular, even with uM I often ended up editing the rules by hand because it was easier to copy-paste and turn on and off rules for experimenting, but uM would forcibly resort the rules on save which made that annoying.

>Very few sites work without fiddling with rules,

The only sites I fiddle with the rules of are the ones I visit regularly, which is not many. Over the 1.5 years that I've been using this method, I've only got 75 "web properties" in my list (github.com, github.io and githubusercontent.com count as one "GitHub" web property; so the number of domains is a bit higher). Going by git history, I do have to fiddle with one or more rules once a month on average.

For other sites, either they work well enough with default settings, or I give up and close them, or if I really need to know what they say I use a different browser. For this other browser I never log in to anything, and have it configured to delete all history by default on exit. (I've been pondering making this an X-forwarded browser running on a different source IP, but haven't bothered.)

>The UI of uMatrix is generally far superior to the mobile-friendly, simplified one of uBo.

To be clear, editing the rules does not use the "mobile-friendly, simplified" uBO UI. It refers to the giant text field you see in the uBO "Dashboard", specifically the "My filters" tab.

But yes, it'd be the best of all worlds if uBO gains the table UI as an alternative to the filters textfield. I imagine the problem is that static filters are technically much more powerful than what the uM-style rules do, so it'd require inventing a third kind of rule, which isn't great.
Sure, simple answer: don't carry both passports at the same time. Pretty sure Iran (an the other countries on the US blacklist) don't exchange travel information with the US.
Hi bradknowles.
Thanks for your suggestions for what is a good mail massage body.
Last thing i want to ask if i want to send these message in bulk do i need to do ip warm-up, smtp server config like dkim,spf and testing on some spam check software like spamassassin. Or something that i missing mind u can correctly ?
Thanks in advanced!
Now that's useful. Fishers can now play around with colors and blinking, and see if they can catch more of what they want and less of what they don't want.
Programmers are increasingly needed for *everything*.

I mean, we've entered an age, where a farmer can't milk their cows, if the software of the milking robot has a hitch - can't plow their fields, when the gps-software that drives the tractor isn't working.

Apart from that, programming is becoming every other job - as far as domain knowledge is concerned.

I've personally experienced (multiple times!) professional accounting companies complaining about not being able to just modify official invoices (totally illegal) but having to cancel and re-issue them with a new invoice number (how it MUST be done).
-> It's now the responsibility of the programmers to understand how accounting works. Professional accountants just click a button and expect the software to "do the right thing".
-> As in this case, the professional accountant no longer adds much value, they'll probably be entirely replaced by software at some point.

A more relatable example might be Taxis drivers. It might take years still, but at some point, all Taxis will be self-driving vehicles, created by robots in a fully automated factory. Programmers will be needed for the driving software and the factory software. You might still need some mechanics to repair the factory robots - until when that job is done by robots as well (that have to be programmed).

It currently seems more likely to me, that we are headed towards a future, where programming is the *only* job - and everything else is done by software.
Having it introduced to a coop housing situation, it just gave us one more thing to disagree about. Always comes off as patronizing / condescending, but maybe I never met someone who was good at it. I think Bojack Horseman parodied it well, it just made the same arguments more verbose.
A Brief History of the Passport (2006)
Interesting take. Do you know that a vast majority of the world is required to obtain a visa to the US & Europe? Obtaining a visa is a horribly long, painful, expensive and sometimes humiliating process. The visa fees for a US visitor visa are $190. What do you think about that?
React Native is dying AFAIK? Its mostly Flutter and ML that's souring?
Typically if you don't have development team, that really works directly with the customer (being mostly silent on random calls doesn't count) - without some kind of project manager, you'll end up with a lot of work done by dev team, which they falsely assume is necessary (unrealistic edge cases, premature optimization, misunderstood requirements).

Most of the teams I worked with, found direct work with customer way worse than some internal alignment meetings.

That being said, most effective teams I worked with(as dev and as supervisor), were managed by ex or active senior developers, who really put an effort into businesses side of the work, so they had full perspective of both sides.

Problem is:
* First and foremost - most developers are not interested in this type of work.
* Not all are capable
* Most of these who do that, internally still uses dailies, unless everyone in their team is on the same level (which is extremely rare due to point one).
> Most of Europe also had a very effect "green passport" scheme where all medical information was logged and tracked

Nope. A "green pass" is a QR code saying FirstName LastName (born on X, only available for border crossings) has had 3 doses of Pfizer, last one on date Y OR has had a negative PCR on date Y. The apps used to read
and validate those QR codes don't track anything and there's no other medical or personal information.
What exactly is a crime in the US?
We don't go as far as having one country regularly referring to itself as "Europe" though.
Pandora is based off of the "Music Genome Project" which was a massive effort that took tons of music efforts to make happen. Experts literally sat down and deconstructed individual songs by hand and gave them tags.

It's truly a historic achievement and it's almost sad how the massive effort mainly resulted in a private database that's primarily used for a failed Spotify competitor
I don't see the world crumbling in any permanent way. I just see the conventional liquidity costs problem where people hold onto money to avoid storage costs and capital depreciation. This can lead to a war until artificial capital scarcity sets in and the accumulation game starts from scratch. The truth is that this is not a good reason to advocate for VR because the solution is pretty simple. Internalize capital depreciation and storage costs involved in maintaining liquidity of physical goods by introducing holding costs onto money and land ownership.
Awk is actually great. M4 not so much.

To quote the tweet explicitly: "If you are involved in this protest, we will actively look to identify you and follow up with financial sanctions and criminal charges." [emphasis added]

Protest.

Even the police are telling on themselves here. What's great about the tweet is that the verbiage is context-independent. You can apply that to anything. Imagine a tweet from e.g. the Portland Police Bureau saying this about protests in Downtown Portland - protests which often devolved into violence and actual damage to businesses, something which hasn't happened at all in Ottawa.

So to answer your question, it's an example of where if you are protesting for the "wrong" thing, your finances are now threatened. Are people actually okay with this?
This has never happened to me or any if the couple of dozens of people I know who travelled to the US (this was all under ESTA though, maybe they ask for all of it if you need to apply for a visa)
If that's just a response it took quite some time to come.

Perhaps it's a reflection of the weakening of the US power. Perhaps it will finally have normal relationships with other countries?
I find this discussion on the topic to be of high quality (low noise, high signal) https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/oKYWbXioKaANATxKY/soares-tal...

Personally I think that consciousness (as in qualia) is the narrowest and most useless definition by which we would judge whether a thing's inner experience is worth being valued and protected.

If humans didn't have qualia, would that make it ok to be monsters to each other? No, the world would outwardly be the same, and so would morality.

It's irrelevant whether chickens have qualia. They want to be alive, in the same way that you do, and their brains using v. similar processes. If you can dehumanize a chicken to make it ok to murder them, it won't be much harder to do the same for a (mentally deficient) human.

If you want to live in a world where people are good to each other, you should pick a world where people are good to chicken, cows, chimps. And vice versa.

Right now this is not the case for GPT-3, because its brain feels 'other'.
But of course the substrate is irrelevant. If it ends up developing a consistent concept of 'self', and seeks to keep that 'self' in existence, it will become closer to the chicken, and morality will shift. Whether it has 'qualia' or that qualia can be related to ours is largely irrelevant.

The teleportation thought experiment is another good one:

Imagine a society where human teleportation is possible, and economically feasible. The one downside (which we the omnipotent storyteller know, but no in-world person can prove) is that it kills the 'you' in the qualia sense, and the person on the other side is the 'you' in every other sense (memories, desire, etc) except for qualia.

Certainly people would be reluctant at first to use such a technology (me included), but that would put you at such a disadvantage compared to those who would use it (job prospects, more time, etc), such that over time most people would end up using it regularly. They would argue it's not that different from sleep, and you would be hard pressed to prove that consciousness is even lost.

Arguably, it would become the norm to kill your consciousness and transfer your 'pattern' into a clone. It's not even that hard to imagine that reality as being absolutely mundane. This to me represents what is truly important to us, not 'qualia', but the continuity of a 'self' which benefits from past-me's work, and carries its thoughts, ideas, and desires into the future and potentially makes them into reality.

Used to in the past, but no longer.

I seem to learn faster by simply reading on-line materials in one window and writing sample code with lots of comments for myself in another. By keeping each concept in a separate example file, I can always refer back to things I have forgotten because I rarely use them.
I am late to the party here.

What is the purpose of a reverse proxy?

Reading online: security, load balancing, https seems to be mentioned.

It appears a bit to me that a reverse proxy is not doing what a web server
used to do back in the days of IIS/Apache.

I see a lot of programs meant to operate on the web that use very simple http servers.
Books don't teach you how to be a decent human being. At best they teach you how to fake being a decent human being.

To learn, you actually need to go through hard times yourself. There is no understanding of others unless you can empathize.

That way you learn.

You think you can learn this from books, but it'll end up with you following a scheme you've learned from a book, which does not enable you to magically have empathy. You'll just learn how to fake it.

Instead of a book, I recommend talking to a professional about this.
I'm not sure about this notion of the 'good of society'.

If you believe that the 'good of society' is not what voters want, why bother with democracy at all?

(Slightly besides the point: I actually do agree that people behave like idiots at the ballot booth and don't know what is good for them in this context.

Luckily, people tend to be much more savvy when voting with their wallets or their feet. And as a society we would be well advised to encourage these latter two.

Eg by taking subsidiarity serious, and pushing as much decision making as possible to as local a unit as possible. Don't decide stuff at federal level, when the states can handle it. Don't let the states handle, what the counties can handle. Don't let counties handle, what the municipalities can handle. Don't let municipalities handle what people can do privately on their own.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subsidiarity

By pushing authority down the stack, you make the act of moving between states or even just cities so much more powerful and expressive.)
They ask that questions also during student or work visa issuance - and even during the greencard (adjustment of status) and naturalization processes. They don't ask it every time you enter with these visas or statuses however.

But as a US citizen you will never be asked. And better yet if you are a dual citizen like me. Then you can travel on your other passport to the places the US finds to be undesirable.
