Ukraine is a much larger fixation to Putin beyond NATO. There wasn't really any indication of Ukraine joining NATO before Russia started its attacks, and Finland and Sweden have been floating the idea of joining NATO if Russia started a full assault.
InComm | Engineering Manager / Dev Manager| $140K-ish | Full time | US Remote

Us : Large, stable, growing company that builds the software that makes gift cards work. About 2/3 of us are located in Portland OR, but we are now fully remote and you can be anywhere in the US.

Me: I'm the hiring manager, I currently manage four teams (3-4 dev + 1 tester each) which is too much, that's where you come in.

You : Hopefully, you are either a dev manager looking for a new job, or an experienced developer who's excited about getting in to management. Your job is to assist, clear roadblocks, coordinate and empower, not to tell people what to do or write code. You should have some familiarity with, and opinions on: agile, microservices, CI/CD, and pairing/mobbing.

Why aren't we promoting from within (I always ask this question when I'm applying for mgmt jobs) : I'd like to, but my devs would all prefer to keep coding.

Tech stack : .net core, teamcity / AZDO, k8s, React (though we do very little UI work, mostly back end). Some of our services are full CD, the rest deploy once a week.

How we work: I'm a big believer in self-managing agile teams. Our motto is "go slow to go fast" - That means don't cut corners, bugs before features, pay down tech debt regularly, and the story's not done until the automation is complete.

Kyiv TV Tower was just hit today. Feel free to find the footage, its all over the place, everyone recorded it.

Is not a TV-station a civilian target? Or do you think that's a valid military target?

------

Is UK President Zelenskyy a "valid military target" ? He's a civilian, and assassination attempts on civilian leadership is frowned upon.

------------

Its clear that Russia has begun to attack the _civilians_ of Ukraine. Hell, Russia may have been attacking civilians on Day 1, but now we have incredible video evidence of these attacks just a few days in.

Anyone claiming that Russia is "only targeting military" ignores the hospitals, neighborhoods, TV-stations, and leadership buildings that have been blown up by the Russians. This isn't just a one-off error, this is going on across Ukraine in general, wherever the Russian military is located.

-----

A major Kharkiv government building was just blown up too.

https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/kharkiv-official-russia...

There wasn't any military there. That was a civilian target.

Anyone calling these attacks "valid military targets" is clearly tied into Russian propaganda. Maybe they aren't aware of it and are just copy/pasting their "trusted news sources", but now is the time to wake up and realize that they're being mislead by the Russian government.

Its utterly simple to prove that civilians are dying here. We got videos of it after all, we're in the smartphone age.
Worth noting that using `transform` can cause performance issues in some cases, especially if the element being transformed contains many heavy children. This is something that can come back to bite you later on if you rely on `transform` techniques too much.

Not to Putin. He doesn't care if his troops live or die.
Money is flowing from Europe to Ukraine to support that side of the war. Unfortunately way more money is flowing from Europe to Russia, to support the other side of said war.
As someone living on the eastern NATO border this has been a most interesting week. In the Chinese proverb way.

Ghosts of 1939, about which I’ve heard stories from my grandfather and was taught in history lessons, suddenly came to life just around the corner. The only consolation is that the west finally saw the Kremlin for what it always has been - a treacherous, lying dictatorship that seeks to enrich itself through any means and cannot be trusted.

Putin managed to do in a single week what multiple US presidents couldn’t in years - remilitarization of Germany. Also, he managed to get Scandinavia to join NATO and dismissed any ideas some countries might have had about leaving EU for decades.

Europe will pay a price which is unknown, but it is certain it will be huge. You just don’t quit drugs (cheap energy) in a week. There will be massive projects undertaken to public dismay.

Ukraine, unfortunately, cannot win - it already lost, even if Russian forces withdraw this instant. The question which remains is can Putin still win. He must be given an option, otherwise this ends really, really ugly.
Everybody told Germany that it's not a good idea to build this pipeline. Well, it was an expensive way of learning it.

Elon Musk delivers on Starlink internet promise to Ukraine
The trick is to just be better than everyone else or use the rules in a way that others don't or can't, which in a way makes you better than everyone else.

Don't cry about it, there's always a way nowadays if you're intelligent and driven.

Voting me down instead of explaining how I'm wrong is both lazy and cowardly. I am a single data point, sure but I've lived it.

The muon was the first WhatTheF particle discovered from cosmic rays. It and its associated quarks and leptons do not appear to participate in any physics necessary for the observable universe functioning.

And the muon vexes us again with an observed g2 moment the differs from its theoretical value greater than measurement error. This again suggests there is more unknown physics out there.

It's unlike Linux in so many ways, licensing being just one really key example.

> The Russian demand of a neutral Ukraine outside of NATO is not unreasonable

Talk of Ukraine joining NATO or the EU was significantly influenced by Russia's invasion of Crimea. Russia was not demanding neutrality, it is demanding Ukraine be a vassal state under the threat of .. making it a vassal by force.

> Russia has no interest or capability of taking Ukraine or the EU. Say no to war

They literally invaded Ukraine, and are deliberately using illegal munitions on civilian targets.
> Google asked for years to have the laws changed.

The laws Google asked for changes were not limited to the mapping laws but any law to require domestic data centers, which might trigger the domestic tax issue at any moment. Your explanation that Borg couldn't handle domestic clusters doesn't clearly explain that Google eventually established SK data centers and started supporting vector maps anyway---and given that South Korea is not the only country with such requests (e.g. EU), not being able to cope with such laws is just a Google's fault.

> It's not at all like that. I pay a one-time fee to BMW to get a seat warmer feature, they're not constantly improving or updating them in my car.

No, the idea was to have all the cars equipped with seat warmers, but the software in the car would only allow you to turn them on if you paid a subscription: https://www.businessinsider.com/bmw-subscription-model-for-f...

I haven't heard anything about it since, so I assume BMW eventually realized just how retarded the idea was.

No, not necessarily.

It depends on the alternative.

B) Only one actor in this drama is being explicitly hostile: Putler's Russia.

Also there are different definitions of "succeed" from different viewpoints. In academia RISC-V is already a big success.

Rhetorical question, I think.
GDB doesn’t work anyways even after you codesign it because it’s not actively maintained.
Although monomorphization takes a significant chunk of a typical Rust compilation, it pales in comparison to LLVM codegen and execution of procedural macros. So although it's academically worthy of note, optimization-wise it's not where the focus should be. Personally, I'd like to see someday a Rust compiler which is not based on LLVM. Both Zig and Jai compile much faster when using their non-LLVM backends than when using LLVM, so Rust is not the odd one here either.

Microsoft actually has ways of preventing that with information labeling. I used to work on company laptop that was using this extensively and it was not possible to copy something from higher to lower confidentiality. At least easily, there was a loophole involving cmd.exe.
You're comparing apples to oranges. Trusted local software and trusted web software aren't the issue. The issue is untrusted software. If you run untrusted native software on a (either non-mobile or non-updated) system, it can usually read and potentially exfiltrate all your files. On the other hand, an untrusted web pages can only access and exfiltrate the files you choose to let them access.
If the war so far has shown anything, it's that Russia hasn't been converting money to military efficiently.

And so far there's been a very large inflow of critical military equipment to Ukraine, while Russia has been hit with giant economic sanctions.
The Soviet Union lasted for some 70 years, not everything was bad. For instance I quite like their cinema and science fiction children shows. My point being, someone raised under the Soviet Union would still be able to find a few things to look back with nostalgia.
So, time to cut off Russia from internet.
On one hand, these machines are clearly superior, and it's a no brainer for companies to purchase them for development. On the other, this is just another one in the long line of examples of bad software practices being overcome by throwing more money and hardware at the problem. Is there any reason for an iOS app build to take 8+ minutes to begin with? And does anyone realistically believe that once all developers have these shiny new computers build time won't creep up again till everyone starts demanding M2 and M3?

This problem extends to the consumer side as well. Developers use expensive MacBooks and fiber internet connections and the end user has a laggy experience running the hundreds of megabytes of JavaScript on an average site. The user has no choice but to upgrade their computer, and then companies see the new spare CPU cycles and fill them up as well. The end result is that while hardware keeps getting ridiculously faster and more efficient, user experience doesn't noticeably improve.

It is just Writh's Law (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wirth%27s_law) in action.
WTF. German Green Party is more pro USA and pro NATO than Biden.

They are literally more interested in USA than German interests.
eink responsiveness itself: it's "slow", but much of it is in software. the remarkable demonstrates that pretty well - pen-to-display updates in ~20ms, which is more than fast enough. for further evidence, dasung's eink monitors are stunningly fast because of good software (and surrounding hardware that can drive it all) - they use the same panels as others AFAICT. (i.e. they're using the standard high-end e-reader panels. there are dramatically slower and more limited panels designed for signage, I think we can ignore those - many don't even have partial update support in their hardware)

The caveat there is that those fast updates are for black to white or white to black - gray to gray is slower, and accumulates error if you keep doing it (ghosting). remarkable has built their entire UI around this limitation: all UI is black/white, no grays. All tools (except the highlighters) draw black/white, no grays - all the texture is just black/white pixellation patterns. a lot of care has gone into working with the hardware's limitations at every level.... which is something android will never do.

other causes of latency often include stuff like aggressive CPU sleeping to make the batteries last weeks. if you get rid of that, and pre-render the next screen, changing screens is something like 100ms or less. in the end you have a pile of tradeoffs that generally mean worse user experience when poking the device to get better user experience somewhere else. which is true of everything.
So...they should change their tagline to: Resources for Developers, by UI Designers
No.

This "Ukraine civil war" bullshit is purely Russian propaganda. The "civil war" is Russia invading Crimea.
Whether we like it or not, the world is global (and has been so since at least the 19th century).

Politicians and populists can huff and puff all they want, but Europe needs gas, and it gets that gas from Russia.
I think Nordea might be the second most popular retail bank in Finland, at least if we go by mortgages as a proxy metric. Osuuspankki would be the largest one, but I haven't heard of them having any issues.
"Based on rough usage patterns, we assumed an average iOS engineer does around five clean builds and 30 incremental builds each day..."

...wait, what? I know YMMW, but for me and most of my colleagues it's 1-2 clean build per day and 30 incremental... per hour, sometimes.

"...In parallel with our modularization effort, we’re also adopting new technologies like SwiftUI and Xcode Previews. These technologies allow us to almost entirely remove the tweak-compile-and-run loop when developing user interfaces."

This sounds more like SwiftUI ad/SEO blogpost than real developer's insights. SwiftUI Previews is notorious for crashing, timeouts and random errors. I have a lot of problems with these on small projects, not to mention bigger ones at work.
It's also a nonsense to proclaim 'it remove tweak-and-compile' loop. Any change to model layer requires you to rebuild project, otherwise Previews will return old state. Not to mention that Xcode likes to rebuild project even for UI-only change.
This article has flaws. Just in the above portion alone:

The rules of conduct were established by the Soviet Union too. They were a founding member of the United Nations, and a member of the League of Nations before that. As a permanent member of the U.N. Security Council, Russia knows full well that this is a violation of the U.N. Charter - that no attempt at a peaceful resolution to the dispute was made because the dispute is entirely fabricated by Putin. He is a transparently unserious and untrustworthy person, and a revanchist pining away for the glory days of the USSR, while heading a kleptocracy to steal from anyone and everyone until his last breath.

As bad as that is, in some sense I find it rather ordinary. What I find disappointing is the West's fixation on profit encouraged it to play footsie with a mob boss, as if it wouldn't one day have consequences. There have been dress rehearsals and speeches all along, by Putin, that draw a line directly to what we're witnessing today.

This is what people don't get - military grade is not James Bond spy gear that can do a million things in a small package - military grade is something that still has a semblance of working after being beat to shit in storage for twenty years, manhandled by a bunch of gorillas who don't give a damn about it, and blown up and shot at.

But over time, according to one expert, the patents may lose value due to continued innovations.

“By the time that large scale commercialization occurs, there will probably be supplemental or supplanting technologies,” according to the UC attorney, who asked that his name not be used.

So if mid and late-stage companies continue to innovate for e.g. the purpose of productionizing CRISPR, the effect of the original patent will lessen in value. A nice note that there continues to be an incentive for progress in this space.
I didn't and I am not going to be coy about it, I am right of center of most issues. It really annoys me to see Facebook shut down the "truckers convoy" facebook organization even but at the same time never shut anything down relating to BLM as just a recent and obvious example. That said I don't want either shut down. I think these platforms should seek to emulating the free speech *principles* of the first amendment even if they aren't bound legally by them (today) where anything up to incitement of violence is unacceptable. Today its just a disaster where they ban/deboost people for political views that aren't left wing, banning "misinformation" that is actually true, and are funneling dark money into elections, and god knows what the hell they are doing with all the data.
Yeah, I think that’s fair.

As a nerd, it does seem to me like I should be able to give the bank a public key and let me worry about my own security. But I don’t think this is actually what the bank or the user wants—they don’t want encryption per se, they want authentication, and an HTTPS link in an email (that you have to login to view)
achieves that.
