In my experience this rarely works at big companies. IT purchasing decision makers at large companies always have armies of proprietary vendors whispering open-source FUD in their ear, and price alone is not enough to counteract that. Sometimes "free" is even seen as a negative.

> Unfortunately these are not scientists.

Are we really at the point where we are going to claim that the IPCC aren't scientists? This seems to be little more than reactionary backlash at a sound observation of the social impact of climate change on communities (and the report does a great job of elaborating which communities and what impacts.) Must we "eject" every scientist who observes a social impact that someone disagrees with? Should the IPCC stop the discussion the human impact of climate change to avoid offending certain sensibilities?
Would be nice
Graphs do not load for me, even with adblock disabled. Firefox.
That wasn’t the dichotomy.

It’s technical solutions vs social political ones. Not collective vs individual.
I'm no climate scientist but a few years ago when I went through some studies they seemed to universally refer to it as anthropogenic global warming (AGW).

IPCC is a political organization so they might be trying to take a more neutral tone?
A thing I remind myself of regularly: Avoiding worrying about optimisation up front too much is not avoiding caring about optimisation at all, it's reserving the number of hours you can expend on optimisation until you have enough working to have a profile available, because you are inevitably going to be wrong about which part is actually slow until that point so your optimisation hours budget will be better spent with a profile in hand.

There's a parallel here to "no, you did not find a bug in the compiler". Yes, ok, once every five years or so I actually did find a bug in the compiler, but assuming you aren't that smart is still a far far better default approach.
This is a fascinatingly weird sentence.

You're using falsifiability here, I assume, to deliberately invoke the Popperian notion of what is and isn't science, but then applying it to a description of the science process itself.

The short answer is that, no, no one can provide a falsifiable definition of scientific consensus any more than one could devise an experiment that uses the scientific method to validate the scientific method. It's validity would have a circular dependence on its own validity.

Science is not science all the way down in some infinite regress that somehow magically stands up. It is not a self-proving Ouroboros.

Science is a particular social system—a set of rules, culture, artifacts, and participants—for establishing consensus and one particular definition of truth. It happens to have a great track record for producing predictions that correlate with objective reality. But it's still ultimately a social system.
Ironically this is more of a problem now on desktop, where eg a website (such as eBay) in Firefox pops up a PayPal login window without an address bar and there is no way to verify the domain without using developer tools

Isn't this just going to end up causing companies to post large salary ranges with no intention of paying the higher part of the range?
Incredibly sad. I hope that a family as public as the Nadella's can find the privacy and room they need to grieve.

The world is full of sadness recently.
Great, but being the ones responsible for informing the public, that's not a justification for the behavior. If that continues (which it's likely to do), you end up with a highly-reactionary population that's going to do anything but solve the problem.

We're crossing the point of no return as the younger kids have no concept of a world where "doing it for the clicks" wasn't a thing. Once they become adults, all hell will break loose because they don't know how to think, only emote.

If you are trapped in an area with limited oxygen, you should reduce your breathing and activity to a minimum to buy time for rescue. You should not complain about it impacting your lifestyle, blame lack of progress on the rescuers, and go along with life as normal.

Not in the slightest: the difference is that while individual scientists are just as human as the rest of us, the scientific process is built around public review and validation. In the case of climate change, you can look at things like the IPCC reports from the early 90s and see that they hold up quite well 30 years later whereas the various professional deniers have shifted from each spurious claim to another as the previous one becomes nonviable.
Man. Sign of the times.
That's not a balanced take. Balance is weighted by the quality and quantity of evidence.
There are regimes we respect in that region that do public beheadings, as detailed in law. Like I said, once you have sovereign immunity the standard for criticism or even airtime changes. Practically dissipates from the collective conscious, aside from a footnote in an obscure right’s group annual report.

If you think the most effective way to overthrow the Russian government is to try to go 1 on 1 against the Russian National Guard, you're probably not going to last very long in Russia or anywhere else, for that matter.

Same if you think literally doing zero prep work to leave Russia has a high chance of success. If it's your only option, you're not thinking creatively enough.

It just seems like you're operating in a state of learned helplessness, which is immensely sad but not the only way to live.

While we're at it, let's measure productivity by lines of code added. /s

Using merge time is a terrible metric, perhaps worse so than deadlines because it can be more effectively weaponized. What would the incentive be for the developers other than to rush the code review process? Merges are not where you want to be rushing anything, but rather the opposite. If project deadlines are necessary, allowing code review its due time affords developers the ability to informally schedule things without sacrificing craftsmanship for what in reality is a vanity metric. Some code needs the be carefully considered and given time while other code doesn't necessarily need much review or worry at all, but no one can tell that by looking at mean time. If a developer is asked why some tasks had a longer than average mean time, then now they have to waste even more time by explaining themselves. In the worst case, the incentive to rush the review process results in more time wasted on bugs that could have been caught before they even had a chance to be merged.

Am I misunderstanding your view of how mean time to merge would be used?

"Turtles are all animals with shells" is falsifiable in the sense that you can say an animal without a shell is falsely called a turtle, and that an example of an animal with a shell that is not a turtle disproves the definition. Not clear which sense is being asked for here, but it does parse.

Why do you think this regime exists?? Do you think it's the expression of the will of the Russian people? Please, I beg of you, learn a little bit about the dismantling of the Soviet Union and the brazen interference in their elections by western powers, for the purposes of violently suppressing dissent against the bandits who are in charge today.

Also, I don't know what country you're in, but there is a HIGH chance that you do NOT want to be held accountable for the crimes it committed and will continue to commit.
Then hopefully those companies get fewer applications and they learn to be honest- or, if their salary bands are that wide for a single title, maybe they need to think about how they’re treating their employees. Maybe there’s some racial or gender bias they need to work on.

There's a difference between telling people what to eat and incentivizing things that give off a lot of greenhouse gases.

With automobiles, the governments are trying to incentivize greener solutions. With food, things like subsidies incentivize processes that give off a lot of greenhouse gases. Should the government incentivize differently for food than for cars? By incentives I mean things like subsidies. Tax dollars.

What makes cars different from the food supply chain when tax dollars are being spent on subsidies?

There are plenty of people who take care of their cars. Their old cars are in the CPO section of used car lots and priced accordingly.

Short of actually being able to look at a vehicle and assess its condition directly there is no free lunch. Any "signal" you can use will also be used by everyone else and the dealers will price it in.

The clathrate gun hypothesis this is referencing has been largely discredited. I'm not familiar with the science, but I trust the researchers who say there are good thermodynamic reasons the clathrate deposits in the arctic will probably not suddenly destabilize. That being said, we should be absolutely be terrified of this because we're not certain clathrate destabilization is off the table. Plus, thawing permafrost is a nearer-term and more realistic methane monster barreling toward humanity.

Please consider laying off the Deep Adaptation doom reading and pick up a phone to bully your representatives and industry leaders into decarbonizing their operations. Even if there is a climate apocalypse the only way any of us survive is through collective and community effort.

I like GDB, and use it a lot, but it always feels like it's teetering on the brink of being a pile of bugs. I manage to crash it semi-regularly, and there are dozens of little quality-of-life peccadilloes that make things annoying before working out a .gdbinit for yourself. It's like using Vim without a .vimrc (:

I don't envy the maintainers' jobs, and I just gripe from the sidelines, but starting from scratch it's too bad it's such an intimidating experience, because it really is a great tool. And I say this as someone who has used MSVC's debugger (which I've often seen applauded as the best) for some decades, and I still prefer GDB now that I'm past the significant initial learning curve.
> You realize if there is a fork in Bitcoin, your coins would exist on both sides of it right?

In theory. In practice a lot of people will never bother to track splits, understand the intricacies of what a given fork means; case in point here where you claim that Bitcoin Cash split off BTC despite their pursuing the original architecture of Bitcoin proper, and BTC going a completely different direction with lightning forced in as a core part of the architecture and total on chain throughput permanently limited to a level which makes it useless as anything more than a toy.

> If they do something you don't like you can continue using the other fork, there is literally nothing stopping you or anybody else, and you did not lose any funds

The important thing is that they can set the characteristics of the monetary base of BTC to arbitrarily whatever they want without limit, and this has effects on what that monetary base is able to accomplish. For example; they can force it to never be used as a peer to peer electronic currency for the world, it doesn't take much of a reach to imagine who might want to do such a thing and what other goals and projects they might want to steer BTC toward, that may well have nothing to do with the interests of BTC holders nor the reasons they've convinced themselves that they're holding it.

Their interests don't matter though, and the reasons they think they're holding it don't matter either. What matters is what the core council of developers announce from on high is the future direction of the chain, all else be damned, that's what you're going to be stuck with. At the moment you think "I've been duped" your options are either to divest and have your goals thwarted, or fork off and lose enormous amount of momentum and historical record and most likely if history is any example, only one in a million will even notice what happened and what your fork was for.

You come out ten years later as a settlement layer for central banks and shake your head wondering what the hell happened, then you realise you never really understood it to begin with.
