>The other examples are also lacking a lot of details. 30 seconds of latency can be bad, of course. But so can adding concurrency to a team that doesn't understand it well.

It might also be that it's not worth spending effort on speeding up some script like this. How often does it run?

Do these 30 seconds matter? Maybe they do now but they didn't in the beginning, but then that's ok, too, and you refactor.
Sure. The entirety of the original Matrix team used to be a team called “next gen telephony” inside a startup called MX Telecom, which then got acquired by Amdocs and turned into their Unified Communications division, which I ran. The product was a horizontally scalable SIP softswitch built on resiprocate (B2BUA SBC and stateless router components), and then with media processing done using a C++ media graph framework we created called mxmedia. This was similar to gstreamer, but with more flexible threading and using C++ typing extensively to model media formats and propagate them through the media graph. It ended up with roughly the same featureset as today’s gstreamer, but about 10 years earlier - so with muxers, demuxers, packetizers, codecs, resamplers, colourspace transforms, AEC, AGC, rate control, SRTP, ICE, etc. We used it serverside for media gateways for transcoding calls for ISDN, H.323 and IAX; we then ported it clientside when smartphones came around to use it as a webrtc-style softphone SDK.

Unfortunately the IP was all proprietary and owned by the company, and when WebRTC stole our lunch we shifted focus to messaging and building Matrix, and have slowly returned focus to VoIP - hence Element Call.

You're missing my point entirely and making some weird, unrelated argument.

I'm no military mind but indeed, they wouldn't have been quite as effective in shelling the country if they only had access to the sea rather than sharing virtually half the land's frontier.
Firewalls are good spoils, your payload can then monitor, exfiltrate, or meddle with traffic, or use it as a stepping stone to network infra/administrators.
5 years if you keep up with the framework bizarre churn of adding and changing things. If you did not, there is a fair chance that you run an update in a year and things are broken or unsupported or at least deprecated/unused by other developers.

that is Russian propaganda to misdirect attention. How the genocide and ethnic cleansing solves american advances? Putin hates Ukrainians. If you listen to his speech the hate and contempt are palpable.
We have had some fairly nightmarish bugs on iOS thanks to how iOS changed push notifications a while back, meaning that you end up with a tiny client in the push extension trying to independently sync and decrypt e2ee traffic which was at risk of clashing with the main app and causing problems. I think I know the bug you are describing, and it was fixed several months ago - as of the current build the spinner should only show for less than a second and never get stuck on. Sorry that you got bitten by this; I’m also an iOS poweruser and the fallout from the push changes was painful.

Seperately, we wre also experimenting with a full rewrite of the iOS app on top of matrix-rust-sdk called Element X, which whould provide a much better and faster codebase to try to avoid this sort of thing in future.
That's a very fun project. I wonder what else could be made into a filesystem.
In my experience in being hired years ago for this kind of work, there is a significant cost to going “web app” but I’d also sell custom excel plugins. Usually these businesses were hitting the limits of excel’s capabilities when humans need to be involved (complex and hard to adjust formulas, copy/paste mistakes, etc). Most businesses don’t realize they can just have a custom excel plugin, and sometimes that is all they need. Sometimes a web app or custom software is the better solution.
I didn't mean it that way.

Should we also start spamming US phones about Yemeni kids? Perhaps send a picture titled: "Here's the kid we killed today"?

Snark aside, I don't understand what purpose this kind of spamming serves. From reports, most Russians seem to be against this war already. What are you trying to achieve then?
Just got finished watching The Great Hack* on Netflix. Demonizing "the other side", exactly as you've said, causes the polarisation that prevents even the consideration of compromise, resulting in political unproductivity that in turn erodes trust and forces us simple humans back into the basic pigeon holes that remain as the only effective politics, primarily: fear.

The rational centre, however, is unprofitable, and will remain un-catered-to until its profitability increases.

* The 5-minute mini-rundown of the Trinidad and Tobago election strategy in 2010, at about 1hr and 1-minute into the doco, is a phenomenal eye-opener.
Personally I don't. It's not speech from an American but rather a foreign country (or sometimes not even a human).

And it incites harm, which is one of the restrictions that can be placed on speech.

Their launch was sudden and immediate for non-large servers (basically partnered servers iirc) and was a moderation hell for some of us medium size servers when they suddenly got turned on. Long time coming? Yes. Time to prepare? Zero, since it just immediately turned on for most users.
Mixed sync +/- 100ms of latency or whatever is probably fine, for most purposes? If you really want everyone to be centralised on a single SFU then you’d set the permissions on the room appropriately.

Yet I could see the chain of events leading to a store requiring a water connection by government mandate. Stove usage increases the likelyhood of fire. Fire is typically controlled with water in residential settings. No water -> no stove by law.
> I'd rather know what is "normal" i.e. common.

I think using comparative benchmarks instead of absolute benchmarks is where we differ. The absolute bar - being able to grok large codebases, work on complex systems, etc. with some help from a senior engineer - is not high. It's the equivalent of a proper undergrad education in CS. So when you set the bar at a, in my opinion, very achievable level, the benchmark is $70/hr for interns. We're not talking Jeff Dean or Linus levels of skill here. You can't just look at the percentiles and say it's unachievable. You have to look at it objectively. We're in a talent shortage precisely because there aren't enough people that meet the low bar.

The question should be, if I work my ass off and get good at what I do, how much could I potentially make as a random new grad / 2-3 yoe SWE? And the answer to that is if you meet the already very low bar, you can make a lot. I never compare myself to the average and you shouldn't either.

I know when my friends at startups look to hire they don't target percentiles, they target an absolute level of skill or intelligence.

> 0-1 years of experience there at Vercel pays about $70k-$100k

That would be getting underpaid if you had the skills I mentioned above.

> Now I have about 3 years of SWE experience

My whole point is that years of experience don't necessarily make you a better engineer. It correlates, but in general having more skill is a step function change compared to another year of experience. A senior engineer at mediocre level will be less productive than a new grad engineer at high skill that needs their hand held on design, because the high skill engineer is capable of doing things the mediocre one can't even complete with infinite time.

Even so, the poverty in Bolivia was worse.

Should we also start spamming US phones about Yemeni kids? : yes

I don't understand what purpose this kind of spamming serves : there is a crackdown on information in Russia, to take back your example, you know about the Yemeni kids because you are free to access this information
not my problem. i am not concerned what is fact and what is propaganda at this point in this war.

i am talking about america causing destruction to countries in their interests of capturing the world and not caring if millions die. remember gaddafi was "painted" a tyrant and subsequently murdered because he wanted gold for his country's oil instead of american dollars and since then the country is in ruins.

same for WMDs in iraq and the whole "bomb" in UN meeting nonsense.

what i am saying is, these corporations do not have a problem when america does these things which they accuse russia or china of. at that time its all fine but next time at the mere allegation of something similar in an enemy country they are all like "we must resist"

Funny that you say that Europe hires based on quantity and then you put an example (Lionel Messi) of a European football player*.

I don't believe that's true. We also have our "rockstars" in Europe that we know are nigh unreplaceable, from Santiago Calatrava (architect), soccer players as you said, etc. in modern times to all of the classic artists and architects which are known by name.

I think one big difference is that technology came a decade or more later to e.g. Spain, so there's still a strong generational difference where older hiring people do not see a big difference from a "kid" fixing their computer/phone or making a website, and don't see the value so much. Add all of the other related things, like even if they saw it valuable there's little related infra, specific knowledge, etc.

The text on the website:

"Уважаемые россияне, ваши СМИ подвергаются цензуре. Кремль лжет. Тысячи ваших солдат и украинских братьев гибнут на Украине. Узнайте правду в свободном Интернете и в приложении Telegram. Время свергнуть диктатора Путина!"

"Dear Russians, your media is being censored. The Kremlin is lying. Thousands of your soldiers and Ukrainian brothers are dying in Ukraine. Find out the truth on the free web and on the Telegram app. Time to overthrow dictator Putin!"

According to Google Translate anyways...
I think it is a great idea, but maybe we could all host independent proxies on out own dime and add the details to the text to let them bypass censorship, then they can select their news source as they see fit?

Just the translation of the text seems like a 3 year prison sentence for anyone that would act on it...

I would try : here is the "citizen of the world uncensored internet initiative"... then there is the risk the russian send similar messages and jail the people that act on it. anyone with an idea to overcome this is welcome.

read Putin speech declaring the war. The people are killed because they of different ethnicity and refuse to play Russians as Putin tries to force them. From his point of view there 2 types of people in Ukraine - Russians and "nazi and benderovcy" with the latter needing to be killed.

Your post is either factually incorrect, like about my account or my motivation or about "historically friendly relationship", or just some conclusions not supported by any facts.

It doesn’t have to do with military neutrality.
The sentence implies that Switzerland due to their neutral status never or almost never agree to sanctions of any kind.
However their neutral status has never been an indication of that. It clearly reads as sanctions despite historical neutrality.

Either this is an entertainment piece and they can write it how they want (but it shouldn’t be mentioned on a wiki page) or it’s a news piece and should be without these kind of “suggestive but not exactly saying it” articles that blur the line between non-news and deniability thereof.

The only thing it would have cost them to not mention Switzerland’s neutrality would be clicks/money. 0% truth would have been lost writing the context properly.
We have a lot of archeological evidence that at least from the end of ice age people did travel long distances within short period of time, like several hundreds of miles or more. That implies exchange of information on much greater scale then it was possible with a small group leaving in a designated area. Yet we do not have evidence of such travel before the last ice age . Similarly humans started to live in a big villages only after the last ice age according to existing evidence. And again, bigger group implies faster spread of information.

So assuming, as with other activities, that widespread use of herbs to treat specific illness did not happen before the last ice age was a reasonable null hypothesis.

Yeah, well, I've been in software for 45 years. Magical algorithms like that always have both bugs and unintended consequences.

"if it drives like it's impaired, it's impaired"

It's just magic I'm supposed to trust.

No thanks.

P.S. I worked on the 757 stabilizer trim design. While I didn't work on the avionics boxes that fitted to it, I know was designed to never allow the software to have the last word. Because software has bugs in it. It always does.

Yes, I know about the 737MAX. There's a switch to turn physically off the stab trim. All the electronics that drive the trim, including MCAS, are upstream of that switch, and that switch rules. Another switch that overrides all the software is the column trim switch. The 3rd crew that experienced MCAS failure that you never hear about used these switches to override MCAS and land safely.

P.P.S. I let my car drift out of the lane if there's no oncoming traffic to give a crazy cyclist / kid on a skateboard more room, or to give that mom with kids more room, or to avoid an icy patch, or to avoid a pothole, or to get my wheels on a drier stretch of pavement to avoid hydroplaning. Heck, if it's safe to do so, I'll move over a full lane to avoid kids.
It's rather a repeat of Dalio's idea with regards to the cycle of empires or "world orders", but feel free to read into it what you want, NATO or otherwise. I just meant that I don't see how some form of implicit tension won't exist for as long as there are two competing superpowers flexing military and economic might, and I hope the tension never resolves thru military means.
Yes, and that's my point. That's why 'deterrence' is understood to be nuclear. If someone threatened you with 'dark consequences' would you understand that to mean they were going to egg your house, or something worse?
This conflict is incredibly complex, check alternative sources such as Ray McGovern, John Mearsheimer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppD_bhWODDc, Col. Douglas Macgregor says its over: https://youtu.be/xsh9V8UxenI

We should all perform deep analysis of the conflict and behave rationally - the people of Ukraine suffer immensely now.

My wife is a pro, she's actually in a bit of a hole over this issue.

Her eyesight has changed, the focus correction on the eye piece is not working well for her now (it has limited correction range) and her glasses are in the way. Using the back screen is difficult outside because of the sun and speed. Also strength; holding a camera with a big lens at arm's length all day is hard for her.

So - contacts, which she hates and her eyes react badly to.

She might have to pack up, which would be very upsetting for her having built a business and because she get's a lot out of her work.
