I think it's a pretty reasonable assumption, even if the ordering is strictly personal (some people would take a job with better work-life balance instead of the better paying one, some would make a different choice, same thing with technology stacks etc.).

The second premise also seems to be true, though I would phrase it in a descriptive rather than prescriptive manners - the choices you make regarding job offers reveal your preferences ("the ordering of jobs").

Having no "job ordering" would result in people taking jobs based on a coin flip, wouldn't it?

> Java has AOT compilers since 2000, they just weren't free beer.

"just"

Tell me how me, a student in India with a cheap plastic laptop running Linux, could get straightforward access to some AOT compiler produced by some commercial company in north pole or somewhere.

Open source compilers got popular for a reason.

Now we have graalvm, but getting something running with graalvm is not always straightforward. Even with a full framework like quarkus I have had to use escape hatches @RegisterForReflection. Usability matters. And Go was built from day 1 with AOT in mind.

And lastly Go has better built-in / first-party supported APIs for file I/O, networking etc.. Subjective thing, I guess. When I want to make a database backed website, I reach for spring boot or vert.x; But Go wins for CLI stuff.

I don't know much about C# because I primarily work on Linux.
There's still EBCDIC systems being used.
HTTPS everywhere very much cuts both ways. We love improvements like encrypted SNI because we think it only means the evil dictator's middlebox won't function any more, when in reality it also enables shit like this.

On the whole though, I think HTTPS everywhere was still a net improvement, and we should probably be thanking Google for pushing it.
Right, so you can create a startup that contracts these hotels and sell your contacts to bedbanks like Hotelbeds I guess? I haven't been in touch with the industry since a while, so I can't give you too many specifics advice.

A few years back, I remember a startup building a portfolio of Mediterranean(If I recall correctly?) hotels and end up selling the company to a bedbank for 30 Million USD.

If you are not looking into making this into a full blown business, I guess you can take a cut as an agent by hooking up the hotels with the representatives of the bedbanks. Look up for people titled "Market manager" and see if you can arrange a deal with them. Market managers are people responsible of adding new hotels to the portfolio of a company and manage the relationship with these hotels, they usually make good money from commissions. It also often involves things like resolving errors with the booking software, teaching the staff how to use the interface etc.
I bet that if the Docker and Kubernetes ecosystem was born today, Rust would be used instead.

We are already seeing the transition happening, e.g. Deis Labs:

> Given the team’s background in many Go projects, we often hear something like this: “Well, what about Go? Do you regret moving to Rust? What do you miss from Go?” Addressing this in the context of our discussion of Rust felt like a smart decision.
I am reading Clark's Iron Kingdom: The Rise and Downfall of Prussia (<https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002RI9PMM/>). Right after hearing about YouTube shutting down Russian state media channels, I was surprised to learn in the book of the extent of the freedom of the press in late 18th-century Prussia. A British visitor wrote that people were as free to speak as back home, citing a work that was very critical of the king in the context of Poland. During the Napoleonic wars, despite the existential threat to Prussia from France, at least four newspapers that celebrated Revolutionary France as the next step in human freedom were allowed to publish.

It's always preferable to counter propaganda with free speech. Even liars deserve the opportunity to speak. This is especially true when there is no formally declared war between the US and Russia.
You really need Scala to run out of memory though.
If it's an update to the Docker images, that normally takes a couple minutes, if it's a rolling deploy. It is possible to turn off the rolling deploy, but there will be downtime.
It works well if the text format in question is line oriented, otherwise it doesn't.

> Radio - CB/ham/amateur radio in particular - requires no infrastructure and is far more expensive to block than the internet.

Very true in peace time, but it's in clear and easily traceable which makes it dangerous in war time; also there's little development in encryption over HAM/CB since it's illegal pretty much everywhere; encryption devices can be added externally, although for the above reason they're not immediately available at the next radio shop.
Moreover, nowadays military forces can pinpoint immediately the source of a rogue transmission by measuring the phase delay of a signal on multiple fixed antennas, that is, they don't have to waste time while pointing directional antennas around to find the direction; therefore you push the PTT and after a fraction of second they have your location on the map. Now I'm not sure the Russians have this infrastructure in place in Ukraine, but they could if they wanted.

The Terrible UX is in part from the protocol, clients can't fix that (just look at the absolute mess that rooms are). And still no support for custom emoji or stickers.

Oh, and joining large rooms can still take hours.
indeed, why not use real plain text – not markdown.

Homer was able to write the fall of troy and Shakespeare Hamlet without bold text.

So what can't one express without?
I think you touch on why a singular difficulty level can be good when you mention meeting where your capabilities lie instead of forcing you to guess. When I encounter something difficult in a game, I'm always tempted to turn the difficulty down and often do. With Souls games I explicitly know if something is too hard and take it as a sign I need to do something different; whether that's my mechanical technique or the need to explore more. An increasing buff or other difficulty helpers would mean I could eventually brute force my way through without considering other options. Maybe I would prefer that, but it would just be a guess unless I did it the other way.

I don't think that take-at-home tests are fair. Most of times I've been given one the 3-4 hours have been actually a weekend. In fact, I have the policy of only accepting take-at-home tests that are interesting problems that help me learn something along the process of developing them.

On the other hand, I also don't like on-site interviews. A random question not-related at all with the position you're interviewing for is given, and have to solve it while you're beholded by a bunch of strangers... Being tired/nervous after a 3/4 hour in-site interview, scenic panic... To sum up, tThe recipe for disaster.

Whe I was the interviewer long ago, I gave them a questionary that could be solved in 1 hour. I made sure to tell the candidates that don't get stressed, look for whatever info you want in internet, and that there's no good/bad answers. In fact, I gave them the questionary and once the time has passed I would get them to check the answers.

There was several level of questions, to prune candidates at different levels. That also helped to determine the level of the candidate (I was working for a 200 employee non-tech company at the time).

I suppose that the questionary could have been asked to be completed in-place, in an empty room and without internet... But, what's the point of that? In the real world a developer is allowed to use internet, in fact, knowing to search is a skill I'd like to check.

Besides, if they had some open-source projects I would take a look at that, and at the end, there was a technical conversation between them and some senior developers about their career.
I'm very surprised that source spoofing is still a problem. Fix your damn networks people...

Or maybe shady providers allow this on purpose to entice black-hats?

>It's time to move on and look back at your decade of use and ask what you really missed out in terms of community involvement and how the web has changed. Forums are dead

I just wanted to enjoy some media puns without devolving into some banter of pedantry, political escalations out of nowhere (I like show -> I support [bad thing in one moment of one episode of show] and I am a bad person for it. What?), or well, no response at all because it seems there's little/no response on older forums.

Really does suck. Reddit isn't really for discussions anymore, and most media stuff I can find seems to have moved towards discord servers, which is horrible for long form discussion. I like the concept of nested discussion so I can just minimize that moment when two people argue for 50 comments, but I miss pretty much everything else about the old gamefaqs days, for instance. People can still be pricks but it didn't seem like the entire thread of EVERY post was being prickly.

Windows 11 has the widest desktop app and hardware support and the best *nix environment including great things like apt-get via WSL. Linux (even if you have OSS drivers) often has limited hardware support and macports/homebrew is limited compared to apt-get.

I've been using Linux for 20+ years now and agree with the person that said Windows 11 is essentially the best of Linux and *nix.
Cool! I really like this new release, especially since I'll be switching to Apple M1 soon ;)
I already do. I wouldn't use the full 10Gb bandwidth yet but definitely more than 1.. And I don't want to invest in stopgap tech like 2.5Gb.

The problem is the switches are still too expensive :(

I’ve had an obsession with isometric rendering and related art since I first played SimCity 2k and love seeing content like this! I wrote a basic game using MonoGame and my own renderer for Tiled to get a better understanding. I had it running on an early Windows Phone 7 device butter smooth and found it a fun exercise to try and replicate some of the interactions from the games I liked as a kid. Obviously even a 1Ghz ARM processor is miles ahead of what SimCity and other great titles ran on, so was kind of “cheating”.

Something I’d like to read more of is supporting things like fixed rotation and strategies for depth/Z index from real games with code examples. I remember getting a bit stuck on animations of tall sprites with other game objects not rendering in the correct order. Eg a highway overpass or bridge with people/cars underneath. Would definitely pay for quality tutorials with code examples.

Edit: this is the first I’ve heard of Pikuma, this looks great well done!
serious question:

who of you actually used plain text (not even markdown) for all texts and notes for say a month?

And who changed back, why and for what occasions?
The rest of the world is using twitter & tiktok to get real time intelligence so why not. One could, for example, tell those sympathetic to you to use "hastag military installation blow it up" and tag it on social media and within a few hours the circling bomber get the coordinates and boom.
My experience has shown that list to be extremely well-curated. See https://wiki.archiveteam.org/#Warrior-based_projects for the current list.

Though if you join the Reddit archival project, all bets may be off but that's not AT team's fault, I guess.
Absolutely agree on everything else; tiny nitpick only on one part of the Nazi thing. No, of course Ukraine as a whole is far from "a Nazi nation"; far less so than the Fourth Reich based in Moscow!

But, the nitpick: Wagner kind of cancels out with Azov, doesn't it? That shit really reflects pretty badly on Ukraine; I think she should disavow them.
It's really hard to play on the phone. At first I kept tapping on the links below the game when I focused more on the game and less on my finger position. After I got used to tapping a bit higher and not letting my finger slip down I got another problem: when the paddle was really low, my thumb would block the view so I couldn't see the paddle or the ball.
There's lots of other fun numbering systems.

The book 'Purely Functional Data Structures' has lots more obscure numbering systems, and uses them to construct data structures.

To give a trivial example: unary numbers are basically equivalent to linked lists.

Skew binary number are equivalent to something more interesting!

What exactly do you suggest be done about this?
No you misunderstand -- disable contributions where the contribution itself is located anywhere on the map in Ukraine. No VPN concerns there...
100mbps h264 is fine. In fact, for existing content we got mostly indistinguishable results at 50mbps. H265 gives you another 30%.

Now there might be people who can notice the difference but in our limited human studies testing on in house VR employees they couldn’t (try it out yourself if you have an Oculus link - the Oculus PC tool lets you adjust the bandwidth live if I recall correctly). You do want to start initially with a high bandwidth so that the initial P frame gets the most detail and then you can decrease the bandwidth which applies to the subsequent I frames.

Obviously VR resolution keeps increasing every year or two so this will grow but you’ve got other techniques that combat this like ML supersampling.

I think an overlooked piece of 10GBe is lower latency and more consistent performance as packet scheduling is the most challenging aspect of streaming VR. There could also be other use cases where higher bandwidth is more critical but video streaming VR likely isn’t it.
Its about 800 times faster than what we get in Australia and call "Broadband" (on a really good day)
It would be nice if Google Maps would distract the invading soldiers by asking them to calibrate their accelerometers all the time like it did on my phone.
When you're shopping for something, do you pay what you think it's worth, or just the cheapest you can find (within some level of effort that may be just buying the first one, depending what it is)?
It's pretty clear almost all Ukrainians don't want to be part of Russia. The fact that Putin has a theory of history that he believes the will of common people should just bow down before is the cause of this invasion and the tensions between US and Russia. As usual, a paranoid leader obsessed with honor gained through force and machismo is blaming everyone but himself.
Moreover, the so called "eastern expansion" of the west is driven by common people wanting freedom and prosperity, not by imperialistic machinations. Meanwhile russia has one of the highest emigration rates in the world.
If NATO was war mongering why didn't NATO do much after the occupation of Crimea? Or after the attack on Georgia?

Putin life's work is bringing some imagined Russian glory back. But that's the exact mentality that brought suffering on the Russians through the ages. Be it a Tzarist Russia, a communist Russia or a putinist Russia. The common Russian was always sacrificed for some imagined Russian glory.

It's amazing that you can brush away the fact that Putin murders politicians activists and journalist who expose his corruption, and you still think he is genuine. Remember that he denied that he is going to invade ukrain multiple times just before he invaded?
The only truth Putin recognizes is power.
He will use half truths to manipulate, control and assert his dominance.
Compare for example the western rhetoric blaming the war on Putin while acknowledging the common Russian as a victim. Putin's rhetoric OTOH is generalizing the enemy as some fictive "westerner" conglomerate coming after russia. This sort of demagogy is a tool to prepare a people for bloodshed and war, not for peace.
Nice bit of readable code.

People with disabilities have beaten Fromsoft games. There are numerous accounts of that. From what I have seen, it's usually people without actual disabilities propping them up as a shield for their own laziness and excessive need to chase the current trend.

In short, they want the reader's digest version.
Yes, to a small extent.

One of the subjects I teach is "resilience". We do two lectures as
part of a general security course, and I added one to a "contemporary
issues in ICT", and a seminar in "civic cybersecurity".

We consider Carrington/EMP events, extreme weather threats, political
shutdowns, emergent faults and black swans. As responses we look at
the technology of mesh nets, ad-hoc community networks, emergency
broadcast systems, regressing from DNS to local hostfiles, local
storage nodes for things like Wikipedia snapshots.

You have to split the problem into three fundamental categories,
storage, communication and processing.

We generally assume that telephone systems would remain operational,
but that is no longer a good assumption now that DC battery storage on
analogue lines is phased out for fibre or co-ax. The biggest threat
we've identified is "cashless society", which would be a total
catastrophe whichever way you cut it.

Local storage is cheap and solved. Most individuals and many small
institutions like schools would survive fine for months on end. I have
a Wiki snapshot that's 5 years old and still makes great, informative
reading, plus old Microsoft Encarta, which is great. I've got about
80GB of books as textfiles from Gutenberg and Archive.org (enough for
many lifetimes of reading) I've used youtube-dl to always grab and
store videos to save bandwidth (because one almost always needs to
review them), so I've a couple of 2TB drives just filled with
interesting talks and lectures.

When it comes to communication that's a different story. We've played
around with BATMAN to make ad-hoc meshnets, but any such project
requires coordination. Short of walking around the neighbourhood with
instruction leaflets and CD ROMs its a huge barrier to bootstrap a
community network.

For resilience planning you need to eliminate any devices or software
that needs connectivity just to work, or will fail unsafe without
regular updates.
Yep great observation. I started my first FromSoft game last week - Demons Souls remake - and I had no idea what was going on. Making very little progress and restarting levels over and over. So I decided to follow a guide and the game has become so much fun. It’s quite a bit easier because I’m not dying thousands of times to find which way to go. But I wouldn’t have kept at it otherwise.
His “miracle year” of 1905 was, in order, on the topics of the photoelectric affect published in June, Brownian motion (his PhD thesis) published in July, special relativity published in September, and matter-energy equivalence published in November.
Not sure if you're joking but it would be a heck of a lot more fair. Just have some sort of objective bar like SAT score, and then do a lottery.

Then you don't have the "did we do enough for XYZ group", the RNG will simplify both decision making and justification. If there's x% of XYZ passing the minimum score, that's how many will be in your class.
