My pet theory is that Putin has received a diagnosis of some kind. One that has made him accelerate the actualisation of his dreams of Soviet reunification.
There are many western companies with remote employees in Belarus and Russia too. Some/most? have left to Georgia it seems?

In my limited experience it does seem like Ukraine has more developers working in the startups I know

Don't know whether their employer is helping them.
> Android being open source

Well, it's not exactly like that. Things like cellular modems are almost always closed source, and those are normally integral parts of the phone itself. Then there's proprietary parts of Android itself (the kernel is open, but not necessarily all of the software surrounding it) - not to mention things like hardware blobs.

All of this to say, it could certainly happen to Androids the same way that it theoretically could happen to iPhones. But then, on top of the ethical question, there comes the question of practicality - would we really want to focus on disabling phones when things like converting cheap phones into cellular jammers would have a more direct effect on the Russian military?

Anyway, there's my $0.02...

Only if one is trying to defend evil by focusing on irrelevant "subtleties" so as to distract from the actual issue.

You mean when the Soviet Union unprovokedly invaded Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Poland?

Just because the Nazis were even better than Russia at being evil doesn't make Russia good.

I think the real issue is that we've just left a brief period where the best way to succeed in the market was to make good games.

Anyone who grew up playing arcade games knows that, for the vast majority of cases, the pre-console arcade world was about finding the best way to keep you feeding quarters to a machine. Difficult, almost beating the boss, but ultimately simple games ruled the day. Some are classics now but many were very meh.

The early home console years, when reviews were still hard to come by and rentals weren't a thing yet, were flooded with tons of pure trash games. Everyone knows how awful any licensed game was, but it didn't matter because all they had to do was to get you (or more often parents/grandparents) to buy the game. By the time you got home and realized the game was garbage it was already too late. I remember owning far more horrible games as a kid than good ones.

The late 1990s and early 2000s were a great time for gaming because it was much easier to determine if a game was quality or not before buying, and for a brief window of time the only really great way to make money was to just make a compelling game that got good reviews.

We've since seen gaming become a major industry, where heavy marketing can play just as big a factor as initial reviews. With the massive growth of online gaming and digital downloads it's much easier to make a game that is really about a million microtransaction (remember when people used to think that would save the internet?)

The truth is games have always been structured in a way to optimizer revenue, it's just that we remember a period when the best way to make money in a game was to actually make a game good.
I think it's worth noting that Linus was influential in BitKeeper's design previously, and if you know both systems, git feels like a cleaned-up BitKeeper that uses from-scratch formats instead of trying to ride on top of SCCS.
> Socket is built by a team of open source maintainers with over 1 billion monthly downloads. Everyone on the Socket team is an open source maintainer.

So is Socket.dev open source? On your Github (https://github.com/SocketDev) I cannot find the Github App source code. So being such proponents of open source, why don't you release it as open source?
I mean, replication failures are a result of bad science, bad analysis and a poor understanding of statistics in many cases. It's not so much a crisis in the state of human knowledge but the state of the education of the scientists in those other disciplines.
Condolences to Mr. Nadella & family.

When my son was born, he had experienced symmetric intra-uterine growth restriction; something that seems like Zain Nadella experienced as well. It was clear looking at the photos in the NICU and meeting different parents, that some things come for us all, rich and poor.
It affects method overloading too, I should have said “method overloading”.

Just take a look at the rules for method overloading in C#, or take a look at one of the various C# compilers to see how methods are resolved.
Exactly. This is a violent variation on the theme of MRGA for want of a better term.
You are correct. It is frustrating because clearly it can be hardware accelerated, just Apple hasn't really bothered themselves to do this
Does it? What problems do you solve by doing it?
Code is also protected by copyright, is it not? So you cannot reuse the code itself.
How long can Russia hold such a massive country surrounded by NATO allies?

I don't think there's a single scenario where Russia wins.
It does. Just referential check. Our reactivity is nested and we don't want blow out everything so even though there is read/write segregation and immutable interfaces the internals are mutable. In so sorting looks at referential equality, and nested updates don't even trigger list diffing.

Now this does require special process for intaking immutable or big data snapshots where we can't do reference comparison. So we do have a data diffing capability in our nested reactive stores to propagate only what changes. But for the most part common actions like partial updates highly optimized. As well as simple list operations like sorting.
By the way, are there any projects underway to produce a library of the most common basic template functions? I'm very much looking forward to unifying some of my most copy-pasted functions when 1.18 is out, but I would like to unify on a central library right away.

> To people who know what they are doing more code than necessary to accomplish a task is the code smell.

While I agree, I think a lot of developers are oversensitive to boilerplate, sometimes to their own detriment. And the effort to shave off boilerplate quickly runs into diminishing returns. Beyond a certain point you end up with code that is harder to use because of the layers of abstraction you've added to avoid the last-mile developer writing unnecessary boilerplate.

But I am a touch typist, whereas I'm noticing more and more developers who are not, so maybe there's something there.
> I wonder if they have given China extra pause in their stance toward Taiwan.

I expect so. But China is a great power, and Russia is only a regional power. It's much easier and cheaper to isolate Russia.

China's claim on Taiwan is 1000x more valid than the Russian claim on Ukraine, and the world would react differently. I say this as someone who likes the RoC, and thinks they have a right to self-determination.

Ultimately, though, China is trying to win the economic and political game. You need a large military to play that game as a great power, but you don't have to actually invade people to exercise military power. And wars are terribly costly when you're trying to modernize infrastructure. Decoupling China from the US would be terribly costly to both sides, while trade is profitable. So they use that to buy a sphere of influence, largely in Africa and South America. Putin is the idiot who still thinks he can invade his way to a sphere of influence, which hasn't really worked out for anyone after the Spanish-American war.
You're missing the point - check out the parent of the comment you're replying to.

>> Chinese MANGA equivalent enters the chat with their own hardware financed from other business units and potentially subsidized.

> If China wasn't in this conversation [...]

Substitute "China" for "Amazon" and my point still stands.

> [...], the above would be criticized as an example of greedy MBAs nickel and diming the consumer.

That's exactly my point though. We're too critical of small businesses with expensive products. It's unsustainable and unrewarding for small biz to innovate in hardware or expensive ventures that can easily be cloned and ripped off by big businesses that have fantastically mature revenue streams at scale.

I'll take my point further. Consumer behavior won't change and there is no solution in trying to shore up customer empathy. Instead, top down policy is the solution. Patents need to be given asymmetric teeth in order to fend off the bloodthirsty giants. That way we continue to allocate capital to innovation rather than the act of subsidized carbon copying.

A recent success case is Sonos in their patent litigation against Google's blatant copying of their multi-room audio product.

(Granted, we also need to tamp down on no-product patent trolling. Those people are nothing more than fancy thieves wearing suits.)
These people were right, but the alternatives they propose do not sound realistic. They are aimed at rational actors. The fact is, people living in those countries do not want to be Russia again and a civil war was always the only way this could end, NATO application or not. See Chechnya or Georgia.
I agree with you. I was rejected from a company in January after spending upwards of 40 hours on the process. 9-10 on the actual interview, talking to people, Zoom calls that blew through the scheduled times, and the rest on their code challenge/assessment. I could feel my motivation and even desire for the job tanking dramatically by the end of my 3rd 3-hour-long zoom call with their team. I didn't even want to do the code challenge at that point.

On the flip side, the jobs I've held where the interview process is more centered around my past work, discussions about approach to teamwork & software development, and extracurriculars/interests have never failed to lead to something more enjoyable and long-term. The fastest way, in my experience, to destroy a candidate's interest in your company is to demoralize and dehumanize them by dragging out the process for weeks (I am "still waiting" to hear back on a job I applied for in December... if they end up getting back to me at this point, I just can't see myself wanting to continue the conversation.)

Much of my adult life was the same way. We used to talk about how great our family had it -- we went for decades without losing anyone close. We knew eventually our turn would come, but I treasured the time we did have.

But come it did, about 7 years ago. Since then I've lost two brothers, my dad, my grandparents, and my best friend. The trite "fuck cancer" statement comes to mind regularly. Another friend of mine has cancer, my mom has terminal cancer, my stepmother has cancer...

> I think I'm gonna call my mom.

Always a good plan, I highly recommend it. I think I will do the same. Treasure your loved ones, even when times are good it can change suddenly.
But both can only be ascertained in hindsight and knowledge of the issue. Software issues can, and do, also cause a lot of issues with the data that spreadsheets are analyzing so I don’t necessarily see it as different. Also a lot of spreadsheet info is just info. It’s not necessarily being used as a crucial decision criteria.

There’s such a wide spectrum of situations it’s hard to be too rigid with this. My software analogy was just pandering to this audience. Probably not a perfect analogy.
There are still muscles, they slowly deteriorate over time though. When my friend was in 2nd grade or so he could still run and play with the other kids. For a few years after that he could still use a controller to play video games. As he deteriorated further, he couldn't even do that, and got most of his enjoyment from watching other people play games. Heartbreakingly his nephew, who was named after my friend, also suffers from muscular dystrophy since it's a genetic illness.
I know nothing of this stuff but potentially:

- Extreme wide spectrum frequency hopping. Hard to distinguish from the noise floor.

- Steganographic encrypted channel over fake unencrypted channel.

If course when in doubt, assuming stupidity is the safe bet.
If you want to cheat, might as well include religion and religionesque views (Confucius). Plenty of those claim to originate from 1 person.
That's why many places in Europe also have nuclear weapons. They are a deterrent. I highly doubt Russia would nuke any territory they are trying to take over such as Ukraine. Other places it's possible, but the response would be equally destructive too. It's a no-win situation.
Hubs itself is open-source; you should be able to find whatever library it's using if you dig in the relevant repos.

> the verification link does not authenticate the browser that it opens from your email, but rather the browser that your email address was originally entered in

That is much slicker (and necessary in the case of Hubs, where you may not be able to access your email from within a VR environment), but it also carries risk: Naïve implementations would open you up to attack if you accidentally clicked the link on an email sent in response to someone else entering your email address in the app.
I’ve got rejected from DeepMind, OpenAI and Tesla. At least aiming high ;)
Gotta fund something on my own I guess.
It's so disappointing to see in the article that caste discrimination is still being blamed by some on the religion of Hinduism. There's no dharmic status whatsoever for "caste" in the commonplace sense. The Vedas occasionally talk about something that gets misinterpreted as caste, but it's very clear from the texts that they're talking about individual callings and aptitudes, and not any sort of immutable status. The latter were merely a historically contingent development within Indian society, very similar to those that were leading towards feudalism and serfdom in the West.
My idea is that a CPU is just a component and it's useless by itself without considering the rest of the computer system. ARM needs to dip more into standardising the rest of the picture, and the RISC-V guys could also start looking into creating an open computer architecture initiative/group to prevent further fragmentation.
> SwiftUI Previews is notorious for crashing, timeouts and random errors.

Just going to plus one this point in particular. I just started working on an app for the first time in January, chose SwiftUI, and probably wasted at least a few days' worth of work time dealing with non-problems that become problems only because of using SwiftUI Previews.

Once I disabled Canvas and removed the Preview struct, my dev time got quite a bit more efficient.
I don't see how you can make the leap from "its hard to measure" to "no metrics are useful". As with anything you have to use your judgement, experience, and its a case-by-case thing. Everything is a signal. Lines of code, number of bugs fixed, number of bugs found, severity of bugs, hours in office, meeting project milestones, contribution in team meetings, etc, etc. Its up to you how to interpret each signal. As you rightfully said, there is no silver bullet.

I am a physician, though not a specialist in that particular area (otolaryngology).

A healthy heart contracts exactly the same way (nearly) every time. There is a single electrical tree that coordinates the entire heart, so if you shock the tree at the right point, it will propagate down the entire tree in a predictable pattern and you get normal heart contraction "for free"

The throat is orders of magnitude more complicated. There are several major muscles involved in swallowing, each of which can have tens to hundreds of thousands of individual fibers, each with their own innervation. Coordinating all these fibers to produce a single coherent motion is complex and is not fire and forget - it involves some pretty intricate feedback loops between processing centers in the brain and stretch receptors in the muscle, with the brain refining and redirecting movements based on updated data from the stretch receptors.

It's like the sending a single strong electrical pulse to your lightbulb versus a CPU. It will probably do what you expect for the lightbulb (heart), but not for the CPU (throat).
