Right, and I'm not saying you're wrong for feeling that way, nor am I saying that Russia isn't an existential threat. But, at the risk of over-intellectualizing the situation, I think it's worth noting that for some reason, this Ukraine-Russia conflict has brought out feelings that citizens should be prepared to fight for their country.

This, at least from an American perspective, seems to be a sentiment that comes and goes, but has only appeared in very few cases in our past. I cannot speak for the French in this case, but in general I think it's worth pointing out because you'd expect military conflicts to be resolved between militaries and their respective states - this social contract being something of the foundational idea to Western politics.
The Senior devs are there to help out new starters, especially those that have just started their career let alone starting a new job.

I respect they might be busy but two new starters who are at an equivalent experience level should be getting support. Reach out to them, find the one that has the best personal skills and lean on them. If they are really busy make sure you're making the most of their time.

* Take notes
* Ask good questions
* When they provide you information, ask for them to provide you a link to supporting documentation so you don't need to ask the same question twice

Even with all of this, you might not get the support you need. If that happens, it's not a reflection on you but a reflection of the organisation or it's current (or permanent) situation.
> It takes energy to lift these filings. Where does that energy come from? (It never seems to be exhausted.)

That's potential energy. When you made the magnet, you created a potential between everything else and the magnet. When you unmake the magnet, you change the potential again in the other direction. Changing said potential consumes energy.

The potential can be exhausted as only so much mass/magnetic-potential can fit within the magnets field. To use the field with more stuff, you have to pull some stuff out of the field, which takes energy.
Those mathematical games quite literally have helped us understand reality. The standard model made predictions, which were then tested.

I do, Fauci says nothing that contradicts this. People with breakthrough infections spread similarly to unvaccinated people, yes. But the majority of vaccinated people do not experience breakthrough infection. And people who are not infected do not spread the disease.

I’ve always been interested in CG. Back in the day, I played with OpenGL 1.x, D3D5, lived through the introduction of shaders. Now I’m toying with Vulkan and it’s incredible how simple it feels compared to the old-school APIs. Everything basically reflects what the GPU is really doing, you just acquire a drawing surface, set the state, bind some buffers and execute the shaders. There is very little hidden state.

I admit this is a little bit more involved than calling glClear followed by glDrawTriangles, but once you reach the stage where you’re ready to apply textures and write shader code, the new way seems much more straightforward.
How does forcing American citizens to pay higher for the oil make oil cheaper is beyond me. How does export tarrifs help reduce the price of oil ?
> so long as the name of a piece of data is known (its hash)

But that's also the fatal flaw. It's pretty definitionally true of stuff on the web that the person who owns / controls it wants to be able to change / update it. That isn't really supported at all at present for this distribution method, and it's hard to see how it could be in the future without introducing a single choke point.

Case in point: the vast majority of torrent traffic is for new torrents, because people want to download the stuff that's just been released, not the stuff that they either already have or could have had months ago. You lose 100% of this traffic with this "p2psearch" method, because the database can't be updated. Or if it can be updated (stick it on a traditional website for people to mirror), you rely on everyone updating to the newest version of the database.

It's also incredibly slow compared to traditional sites. It took longer than it took me to type this comment to see a single result for the popular title I tried to search for.
White noise is insidious. There was this one team that sat in an area with lots of white noise. They seemed to like it - said it helped them focus. Now they all have hearing deficits.

> I wish that had carried over to modern devices. I guess it's "too intimidating" to the user to have an extra physical button.

Physical buttons cost money and can break (which costs money if it happens during the warranty period), also they need i/o and wiring. Android devices are going to have the minimum number of physical buttons (which seems to be three right now), because there's not enough people who will buy a phone with a shutter button over a cheaper phone or a phone with better specs. Windows Phone (RIP) had a requirement for a shutter button, but had to drop it because the cost was too high.
I've been using my iPhone 5 since 2013. I get comments every single day from people who absolutely love it and want to know what model it is. I'm convinced it's the single best product Apple has ever made. Until another true 4 inch screen iPhone exists, this will be it for me.
I don't believe any major social media companies are based in Georgia.

The practical effects and constitutionality of the bill are probably irrelevant anyways. The narrative of Republicans being banned from Twitter just for stating their beliefs is useful for energizing their voter base.
Read the book, that's exactly what he's saying, and that way of thinking is a fundamental aspect of dialectical materialism. The semantic and conceptual differences come when these small changes accumulate and a new way of describing the phenomenon is necessary.
So wait, how is a Florida judge allowed jurisdiction here? Isn't the military under the UCMJ [1]? In my day, this kind of clown would have been drummed out of service before you could say "dishonorable discharge".

Yes, though still lots of oil in the western States. USA can be energy independent, and was just a couple years ago. The tech is cleaner than ever and laterals reduce pad impacts.
I've made a similar mistake before. Google "X customer support phone" and dial the number that turns up on the top of the page. Luckily for me I could instantly tell something was wrong and so I avoided getting scammed - but still, Google ads are dangerous!
I don't think refusal of an injection of a substance into one's body is purely "philosophical" (nor do I think it's reasonable to judge such an injection as purely "benign"). I also think each person should have full agency over their body and what is done to it, and any violation thereof is a pretty fundamental human rights concern. That said, I imagine the military should be able to reassign the CO to a different role/location/etc. (not in a punitive way, but in an accommodating way). The currently-widespread invalidation of peoples' right to bodily autonomy honestly blows my mind, and how little employers do to accommodate this is super disappointing to me.
I don’t think so. Abhorrent behavior has always been abhorrent. The people using these tactics even often acknowledge it’s ugly behavior but feel vindicated (and even righteous). Some people are hypocrites. This is all just quite a bit easier and more visible than in the past. If anything has changed beyond scale and politics, it’s that people arguing against it are more easily heard.
I'm not conflating them, I'm explicitly talking about the latter group.

> But in exchange for the high bills, these customers did not experience blackouts, or at least experienced them later than others.

Yeah, so regardless of timing or how much blackout they experienced relative to everyone else, they did experience blackouts. And still paid a lot of money too. Lack of price controls didn't help them in the short term, and in the long term hurt them a lot.
>"This narrative of “oh my would you think of the innocent Russian people” is tiring. They’re all guilty, just like all of Germany was guilty in 1945."

People are worried because sentiments like yours enable hate. You've literally just carte-blanche declared all Russians guilty. Even the protestors? The newborn babies? Call me hyperbolic but you were the one who said "all". Do I even need to go on about why such absolutism can lead to tragedy?
Why? Geopolitics. You can't influence others without leverage and you can't tariff oil and expect others not to tariff other things you need. You tariff crude export but maybe you need to export gasoline/benzene and they tariff you back. There is also the consideration of reserves, when consuming more you want to consume others' more so your finite crude supply won't run out before theirs (decades from now). Either way, death to fossil fuels!!

My daughter has broken 3 of these in the last couple weeks. Also, you can't charge the device and listen to music at the same time (unless you buy that extra dongle).
Ah, good call!

Honestly... I'm not sure I care about making it retina?
The first objection looks pretty sensible, if properly backed with proof.

The second, in contrast, is incredibly ambiguous, as the mark of the beast can be anything, even abstractions. The measles vaccine actually leaves a mark, and it had little opposition, if at all.
Yep. I don't care if the new one is "only half an inch" bigger than the old SE. That's still half an inch too big. Apple absolutely nailed it with the original SE dimensions, and I will never upgrade until they make another.
Huh? Iron filings fly up because of the principle of minimum potential energy. They can lose potential energy by moving closer to the magnet, so they do. No energy is gained - potential energy is converted to kinetic energy, then heat when they hit the magnet.
Wait, you can get a 3090?
The Zen 3 stock coolers work pretty well. I've never had a problem.

Looking it up though I do see a lot of concerns with the heat they generate. I can only conclude I don't push my chip very hard (which, honestly, I probably don't)

I've been happy with the AMDs I purchased over the past 4 years, we'll see how they hold up and how this next gen comes out. I did see that the recent Intels are quite competitive which is good for everybody.
Polling the public is a great way to see who might win an election.

It’s an insanely silly way of assessing “what would Putin have done in an alternate timeline”.
OP specifically addressed "state-sponsored hacking".

Not petty crime and local burglary.

I suspect you'll find that the state does involve itself in organised crime, smuggling, consumer and securities fraud, and the like.
There must be a qualification process for anything that will be put in contact with a production environment and/or sensitive data. What a container validation process looks like depends on the type of organization and it's risk appetite.
Considering how shit their cents per listen rates are in recent years, they should honestly be trying to compensate the artists they host more than their devs at this point. I've cancelled my sub largely because of this fact.
Anyone who can retain their dignity while also using something called a dongle can probably do anything.
That didn't match my experience with my 27" now-dead iMac, which I'm eager to replace with an Apple silicon model.

As for the "additional displays that match" comment, I did say above that it looks like the Studio Display could be the form factor for a new 27" iMac.

It's got an A15 chip in it already, as well as multiple ports on the back so they probably could get something less powerful than an M1 Ultra in it soon.
> Zelensky is starting to sound like he's open to considering some of Russia's stated terms (no pursuit of NATO membership and cession of eastern Ukraine). That doesn't sound like things are going especially well for him.

If I was President of Ukraine, and wanted to convince the West of the urgency of a radical step escalation in military assistance, I might want them to perceive me as starting to waver in the face of the assault.

If I was President of Ukraine, and wanted to convince the Russians that good faith humanitarian corridors that weren't simply routes to captivity in Russia/Belarus and maybe even a general cease fire for negotiations while the Western sanctions continued to hollow out their war capacity were good ideas, I’d want to project the prospect of an acceptable resolution through negotiations.
Codependency became broadly known in the context of relationships involving alcohol and substance abuse.

But it's definition is much broader than that. And, I would argue, much more common.
Yes. It’s obnoxious, shabby, and needs to be shut down—swift and hard—before Mozilla gets the idea that turning its browser into a billboard is an acceptable method of making money. Because believe me, if this kind of thing turns out to be profitable for them, that garbage will not be limited to a mere static image shown just once.

Given Mozilla’s current financial problems, and who their core users tend to be, this was a very stupid experiment on their part. Genuinely sad to see this grubby crap from them.
Most of these that I've encountered are webapps and they loop/crossfade a white noise sample rather than synthesize it. I don't think looping is the issue here though. I get the same voice-like auditory hallucinations even when playing with an analog white noise source in my analog synthesizers. A static square wave without any other sounds also causes them for me.
I still love my S10e! The battery is fading a bit now, but apart from that it's my perfect device - good size, fingerprint sensor on the side, headphone jack, SD card slot (I store my entire music collection on the SD card), and it just got upgraded to Android 12.
>Quebec’s emissions per capita are the lowest in Canada at 9.4 tonnes CO2e – 52% below the Canadian average of 19.6 tonnes per capita."

Only because they don't count any emissions that come from Hydro. We have no idea what they actually producing because they don't test any of the dam reservoirs for methane emissions.

>Quebec is not a significant consumer of Saudi oil, despite what Jason Kenney has to say about it.

Not my province, so I don't consume anything he says. Considering the biggest refinery in Quebec (Valero refinery in Levis, 265M barrels/day) refines sweet crude, I sincerely doubt it's getting the majority of it's oil from Alberta.

The pro-ness is probably more about extensibility than speed, as you say 20 cores is already plenty for most.

I doubt SHS would ever cause the effects described, unless the exposure was truly massive. The complaint about marijuana affecting intelligence re: brain development hinges on the central effects of THC itself, while lung cancer from SHS typically involves DNA damage caused by contaminants in the smoke (ranging in size from nitric oxide to benzopyrene). DNA damage is typically considered with a linear-no-threshold-model[1] because any incident of DNA damage can have long-term effects on cancer risk, but neurotransmitters likely do have a threshold for long-term damage, because the rate of neuronal receptor activation has a natural range of variation, and disturbances within that range are unlikely to cause any kind of long-term effect, because they simulate the natural conditions.

1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_no-threshold_model - I should add that the way we deal with the LNTM in radiation protection is quite similar to the neuron model I just laid out: we look at the natural variation of radiation exposure and don't worry (much) about exposure less than that range.

Being at one of the Big 5 was never on my radar. I never practiced for an interview as an SWE. I only slid in through Enterprise dev+cloud experience in the consulting department.

So, I was trying to speak about what I will be doing because it is much more generally applicable to most places than what I am doing.

Amazon is weird in how your initial four year offer works.

Year 1: base + prorated signing bonus every pay period + 5% of your four year RSU vest.

Year 2: base + prorated signing bonus (a smaller amount) + 15% of your four year vest

Year 3 and 4: base + 40% of your four year vest.

Then after that you get more stock to keep you about even.

So out of the initial signing bonus - which if your total compensation is $200K, expect year one to be $50K distributed throughout the year and year two to be about $35K. I am using the first two years to pay off debt (to reduce my monthly expenses) and to build up savings so I could meet all of our monthly needs out of my base after year 2. I said earlier I “retired my wife”. It wouldn’t have been possible to live just on my base without getting rid of debt.

I am completing year 2 the middle of this year.

As far as riskiness. My wife is keeping her CDLs up to date so she can go back into the school system if needed. Not for the money, for the benefits. I can always do independent consulting if necessary. With my being able to say “I worked in Professional Services at AWS” gives me an amount of credibility I wouldn’t have had before.
We absolutely understand protein folding. The fact there isn't a closed form simple solution to tell us the shape of a protein shouldn't be surprising at all. It's just hard to calculate. It's like the 3 body problem, but there are 90. I don't know why you think there would be some simple solution to that that doesn't involve simulation and heavy computation. You'd need 8 dimensional 100x100 matrices or something to describe something like a protein in pure math, which is way more like programming than arithmetic anyway.
I'm skeptical about generalizing those results to more "natural" sounds like fan noise. As others have mentioned true white noise is very unnatural due to its uniform power spectrum. Pink and brown noise though seem more natural due to the dampening at higher frequencies, and I'd bet things like fan noise, rainfall, waterfall, etc. lie somewhere along the 1/f^alpha for alpha > 1 (in between pink and brown).

I'm sure that we've evolved to handle things like noisy nights (thunder, rainfall) and living near rivers. You probably don't want to go beyond 50db though.

But to be on the safe side I'm going to turn by fan one notch down (40db -> 30db) to be on the safe side.
Thing is, as a former engine and graphics programmer, I have to say I agree with them, we got gaming software wrong. It took me years to actually see it but we do it wrong. A game like all software should be incredibly light and fast. A game that examplaries that is World of Warcraft which is incredibly light for a game of its stature.

It took me years to understand that, you can picture a performance red line, and instead of approaching it from above (that is, optimising a lagguy game) we should approach it from below. I havent work for a single game developer which use that approach and yet Im now convinced its the right one. Approaching the line from above almost always gives you a bloated heavy erring-on-the-wrong-side software.
Yeah. They've been in stock for months here (though the retailers are charging the inflated prices too), e.g. https://www.computeruniverse.net/en/c/hardware-components/nv...
Retired Navy here.

This is one of those ambiguous arguments that can be made either way. I got both Pfizer shots and the booster. But, with all of the ruckus surrounding Covid and the vaccines, I'll fall short of condemning other views.

Those wanting to toss all dissenters out of the service need to ask themselves how much risk they're interested in eating.

Ukraine is no maritime conflict, but there is significant potential for one on the far end of the Asian continent.

Indeed, future historians may come to deem this vaccine fracas as somehow related to all of the military goings-on.

> If we had an oil export tariff, then we would very quickly become oil independent.

We typically export refined oil products (think gasoline from WA to BC) that have lots of value add (refined gasoline rather than just oil). A lot of it goes to our allies (Japan), or even China. Cleaner American crude might go to other countries who mix it in with dirtier local crude to create something that is refineable. The trade has a net benefit if you don't treat oil as some homogenous resource. This isn't even to mention geography conveniences: we export to Canada, Canada exports to us because the USA is a big country (and lots of Canadian shale goes to Texas to be refined).

IF we had an oil export tariff, the industry would get messed up quickly. It would survive, we would just have to shoulder higher costs for less efficient usage of resources.
In my tests, for NVMe storage I/O I found io_uring was slower than a well-optimised userspace thread pool.

Perhaps the newer kernel is faster, or there is some subtlety in the io_uring queueing parameters that I need to tune better.
If the article is accurate, this is a surprisingly ridiculous position of the judge and court. The commander has rights to not be forced to take a vaccine but what right does he have to lead a ship? I'm surprised the Navy needs a reason to reassign him. He disobeyed orders and endangers his fellow shipmates. Why he does that (supposedly religion) is immaterial to his being reassigned due to disobedience and endangerment.

Could you imagine not being able to reassign a pilot because their "religion" prevents them from losing weight or getting corrective eye surgery?
> buildings full of lead paint and lead-leaking pipes have not been fixed.

That’s because a few IQ points in black and poor people is not considered more important than not using tax money to solve the problem.

Arguably, the added IQ points times the number of people affected would most likely have a positive effect on the GDP and would pay for the fix in a couple decades.

That we even think that we’d need to do the math to justify it is deeply depressing.
