I have had similar experience building microservices that used shared repositories. The PR paperwork was so bad that at one point I've made all my services self-contained, just to avoid having to modify my own code in two different places and synchronize the changes.

The whole problem, I think, comes from the "split the code" cargo-cult. We need to think about why we're splitting the code, and use that why to figure out when to split code.

IMHO, code separation arises naturally from modular programming - once your code is mature enough, it becomes just a piece of glue around a set of libraries that you can just rip out and put in their own repos, provided that they're useful enough.
Imagine one person using a web app to click through a list of up to 50 items with multiple clicks to have a letter printed to a person (Which take an hour or so).

That process is done in 20 separate locations by 20 separate people. With RPA we can automate that entire process (We don’t control the web app and have to wait for features from the vendor).

(The process is more complicated than this, but you get the idea).
My favorite PPC instruction is darn. It delivers a random number, either raw or NIST conditioned. We decided to use the same instruction name in an internal RISCV implementation, and fun times have been had complaining about the darn instruction not working.
Right now our pricing is $1/user, but with a minimum of $500. We're considering adding a self service option at a lower price point (as this definitely prices out some potential customers), but right now we only offer very white-glove service for our customers and its not economically viable for us to cater to smaller customers with the level of dedication we want to deliver to each of them. We have a dedicated account manager for all our customers, offer iOS and Android apps released under the customer organizations, develop features for the platform based on customer requests, help with migration and design, etc. It's interesting that Vimeo is also now not catering to smaller creators, as its something we decided not to focus on also for viability reasons early on and instead double down on providing a better platform for a higher price point. Vimeo's decision also makes me reconsider if we should allow a cheaper self service option on Instill - the thing I worry about is that given variable costs like streaming we'd have to cover, we'd still need to charge some amount that people didn't feel was "cheap" and so they would expect some greater value to accompany the offering that we wouldn't be able to deliver (ex. we wouldn't be able to have as fast support or an AM help them set up their offering, etc.)
I find the way we are slowly converging on Chromium-Powered-Browser as the standard operating system to be both funny and frustrating.

I'm really dissatisfied with Electron apps in general and using an an operating system designed to run on top of other operating systems feels wrong.

But, I do really like it when things portably just work.
Yes, that was incorrect, they are at 780KM orbit, I was thinking Inmarsat who use GEO.

Phased Array does help in improving signal strength(and bandwidth) by focusing on the orbital plane only, however I thought since Iridium uses L-Band(1-2GHz) and SpaceX uses Ku-Band(12-14Ghz), there is additional dish size required anyway and also rain fade issues meant higher strength is required in Ku to operate well.
> No horizontal window splits, and vertical splits only supports two-per-monitor

I use the `Spectacle` app (which has a newer alternative that I forget the name of) and it will do 1/2 and 1/3 window splits, in vertical or horizontal (though I only use vertical). I find it nearly-mandatory for using OSX, but now that I have it I love it.
> It is then safe to say that the only difference between programming paradigms is how long you keep stuff around and the space-time tradeoffs that these decisions entail.

That is absolutely not the only difference.
Best Practices for Kubernetes Reliability via Container Journal
This is really the only correct solution. Either pay the maintainers to do the work (preferable) or in-house the work (second choice).

Long ago at Sun the practice was that all code had to have an internal team maintaining it. If the code was brought in from outside that's fine, but some team internally still had to be where the buck stops for fixes. If all bugs can be fixed by bringing in updated version from open source, that's great. But if not, there's still a customer with a bug and it must be fixed by the internal team if that's what it takes.

Of course, this wasn't too popular with some management, since they wanted to bring in all the free code but offload all the work to unpaid volunteers, instead of budgeting for maintenance.
Do you know what causes the slight wait before getting fresh batteries ? some checks ?

It's discussed all the time, for decades.

Many people have trouble moving forward, regardless of college.
Certainly a good approach if done right, and been mindful with the whole looming birdflu virus and it's spread amongst birds that will lead to an increased risk of human tranfer and equally mutation that enable that cross-over more easily.

However, a thought about how antibiotics got used in animals and in many respects we have to admit - abused in their usage leading to decrease in how effective they are. So with that history in mind, certainly be prudent to vist that whole aspect cure/exposure. Maybe that early intevention at source may be better and I suspect it may well be as shifting the zoological landscape of fighting a virus's at a stage prior to human exposure. But that may well just see over time, more robust virus's that rise up thru evolutionary exposure to any vacine we put into the wild.

So many aspects to look at. Just the whole leasons from antibiotics into animals and how that went is something we need to be very mindful of in not repeating as the possibility of solving a problem in the short/middle term and creating a larger threat longer term is something that can not be rulled out.

One thing that I hope they do look at is having some kill-switch method, be it anothe virus that attacks the one they release. A fail safe.
The past few companies I was at, we discussed whether we wanted a single or multiple repos. But that was a separate conversation from microservices, so I don't think its unusual to have a monorepo with microservices.
No, you're changing my words. I didn't tell that everything Wagner related is always neo-Nazi. I said that they choose the name because it's common to think that Wagner is associated with Nazi Germany. It doesn't matter if latter is true or not because it's only a label to send a message. Same as 14 and 88 are just numbers and are not necessary to mean Nazi, but when you see certain type of people using them you understand what they mean.
Owner-occupied public housing can be sold in a resale market, subject to restrictions. The government does not regulate prices within the resale market.

This is pretty much the exact opposite of the nationalize-all-the-things public housing concept, which presumably is why it's not devolved into the usual electoral capture/tragedy of the commons sh show
You’re looking at it from a perspective of “this instant in time”.

I’m assuming that some of the phenomenal, market-beating growth of the Apple Silicon architecture over the past 5-10 years will continue.

Also if Apple merely creates a quad M1 Pro, as some prognosticate, that would likely match the 3090 in performance.
To be fair, this also happens if you switch to a commercial system, or from one commercial system to another. I can't count the number of times I've arrived at a health clinic, and was told: "Please bear with us, we just switched our system to **, and it has effectively shut us down."
I've thought for a long time that battery swapping is the only way to go for all electric vehicles. A subscription or pay-as-you-go service for battery changing is practical and would make battery replacements costing tens of thousands of dollars a non-thing. I know some batteries are heavy, but if stations can provide petroleum pumps, then they can provide mechanized battery exchange infrastructure, right? Bring on the ISO standards for vehicle batteries!

Does anyone have any reason why this wouldn't work? Perhaps parts being stolen from the rental batteries before they're returned or some such?
> So take what they offer you or leave it. Anything else is a violation of the law.

Just because it's legal for companies to screw you over doesn't make it right or desirable. If they force us to work outside of the law to protect ourselves and our right to access and make use of our own history and culture that's what we'll do.
I always think of the baseball player Calvin Coolidge Julius Caesar Tuskahoma McLish (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cal_McLish). Apparently his dad wanted to make up for not getting to name his older siblings, so he gave him as many names as possible.
Philips used CCD shift registers in their very early digital oscilloscopes (PM3310/PM3311) as well. This was then shifted into an 8085 based computer which rendered it out to the display. Absolutely horrible scopes to use and repair however. Was the only way to get 50MS/s though in the 80s!

>> Picking candidates based on their race, once everyone remaining is qualified, helps undo some small part of that societal damage.

Picking candidates based on their race is called "racism". You don't "undo societal damage" against one race by being racist against other races.

>> Besides, if you're so disgusted by racism, you should be in support of trying to correct for it, not opposed.

You correct racism by making society race-blind, not by flipping the direction of racist policies.
Historia Civilis really is one of the most spectacular YouTube channels out there. Not much other content out there compares to his high quality research coupled with fantastic storytelling.

Once you've exhausted all of his videos, though, I would recommend Mike Duncan's History of Rome, an equally compelling podcast that cover Rome's rise in 753 b.c.e. to it's "fall" in 476 c.e. [1]

You can! Two limitations.

(1) Heat dissipation. You're charging the battery with a much higher current than the discharge current. Even if you can push a coolant through the battery at the charging time, it adds serious thermal loads, and associated mechanical loads, to it.

(2) Power at the charging point. You're pushing dozens or even hundreds of kilowatts, this takes both high voltage and high currents. Cables and connectors aside, the particular charging place just needs a pretty beefy cable from the electric mains. A typical cable going to a single-family house has a 20-30 kW limit. Now imagine a station with 10 charging points.
I’d say it takes two to tango. Caesar didn’t cross the Rubicon with his legions because he was a mustache twirling villain. He did so because the Roman senators (rightly) feared any man who commanded the respect of a large portion of the legions. Caesar has just pacified one Romes oldest fears, the Gauls, and the people loved him for it. He was told to disband his legions and return to face the senate, a move which certainly mean death, so he did what anyone who wanted to keep living: he invaded.

I really wouldn’t say Caesar’s death had anything to do with oligarchs. Sure he threaten their business interests but what he did was so much worse in their eyes. Remember Rome was built on overthrowing a tyrant, the Senators believed any man who refused to disband his army was an aspiring King and aspiring kings can’t be allowed to live.

Of course Caesar was an aspiring king after the Rubicon, whether he was before will be debates too the end of time, having triumphs where he tested how king like he could act to his subjects (Mike Duncan has an episode on this where he says, “the Roman’s could learn to love autoarchy, but they wouldn’t accept monarchy.)
I was also going to mention the Mill, but it's become a bit of a Flying Dutchman that people tell tales of but which probably doesn't exist.

I disagree completely. If you're bought into the M365 ecosystem, Teams is fantastic, everything is in one spot.
The last time we had a prolonged period of high inflation was in the 1970s. At that time not only did housing prices reach historic lows, but it became common knowledge that houses were depreciating assets. That is, without ongoing maintenance replacing the roof and plumbing as needed the house fails and becomes unlivable and useless as an asset. In the current environment blowing a bunch of loose capital or taking out a funny money loan to upgrade a kitchen or bathroom is common, but when interest rates go up and capital is not flowing freely that level of ongoing investment becomes a real burden.

But now we have had asset values rising out of control during a prolonged period of low inflation and effectively zero interest rates therefore it will be different this time? More likely we will again see the usual. House prices will stagnate while inflation does its work and people will come to understand that housing is not an endless free money game but in fact a depreciating asset that is difficult and expensive to transfer especially when it is transformed into a boat anchor.
Intel doesn’t sell fab services, so it’s not an issue. However if you offer and advertise a service at a listed price (as SpaceX does), you can’t always refuse to provide that service to specific potential clients just because it serves your commercial interests. It very much depends on the specifics of the service and market competitive situation.
I feel the opposite, actually. I'm a pretty staunch privacy advocate, but the biggest thing I feel when, say, "obtaining" "through unspecified means" the latest season of Star Trek Discovery is: the studios who made this have no idea I'm watching this, and if enough people did that, it'd look like no one was watching it, so they're less likely to make a season 4.

The secondary argument is, they use that viewing history to influence the production of new shows ("people like shows set in space, lets make more space shows"). I also don't feel this is unreasonable. Ultimately this isn't tracking journalists' movements in an authoritarian regime; its entertainment. If my viewing history leads to the production of more shows I enjoy, who is losing?

Not all tracking is bad. Pragmatically, its not an open-and-shut thing, for me.
I don't think this is a great article, but you are simply wrong. There are well tested universally attractive things, like

* hourglass shape (although the dimensions vary the proportions stay attractive) in women
* tallness and muscles in men
* symmetrical features
* clear skin (no patches or spots)
* healthy, strong hair
* straight, complete teeth
* limbal rings
* ...

All these are basic biological fitness markers for youth, virility, nutrition and overall health. E.g. symmetry is a very powerful one and is known as a proxy for a healthy and well fed mother during pregnancy.

Those biologically (as far as we know) universally attractive features are not contradictory to cultural preferences (which often are basically status markers), rather these go hand in hand. And they are instant, basically unavoidable and exist in more or less all cultures. E.g. limbal rings and symmetry are immensely easy to test and have been demonstrated in hundreds of studies across cultures, not just WEIRD people.
YouTube has aggressive copyright filters, but only for a specific set of vetted major media owners. The system is actually intended to take copyright disputes outside of the law and let Google negotiate a backdoor license with whatever company they think has the strongest claim to ownership over the content. The average YouTuber is not treated like a copyright owner in this arrangement, and has very limited tools to go after infringing reuploads of their own content.

Furthermore, there's plenty of other services that don't have a Content ID solution, are under the DMCA 512 safe harbor, and still have enormous amounts of infringing material, because the current notice-and-takedown regime puts all the onus of enforcement on the copyright owner. Speaking of, at one point, Google would not service automated search requests, and would comply with takedowns by... linking the user to the takedown request, which has the infringing link on it. Don't ask me how that is actually within the safe harbor.

The underlying problem is that DMCA 512 is underspecified; it just says you need to take down content when asked and put it back up if the uploader is willing to dox themselves. It does not say how the company goes about taking down content. SMART would change it so the Copyright Office determines how far any company has to go in complying with a takedown notice. If they say "video sites need a perceptual hash upload filter", then any site that hosts video and doesn't have said filters is outside of their safe harbor.

The solution to fair use under DMCA 512 is to tell the complainant to sue you and hand them a service address. I don't think that's changing - though practically speaking, if every substantial similarity is being prosecuted as infringement then you basically lose the right to anonymous fair use. The major publishers don't care because...

- They have dedicated staff to handle actual infringement issues, and have gone over everything with a fine-toothed comb

- They are large enough to be able to absorb even large damage awards, whereas the average independent creative would be ruined by even a modest infringement judgment

These are problems mostly orthogonal to the problem of upload filters, though - copyright is a hellish nightmare regardless of whether or not a few extra people get access to YouTube Content ID.

Also, TPB never accepted DMCA takedown requests, that's actually how they got shutdown. The prevailing narrative at the time was that Sweden had no notice-and-takedown law on the books. But that makes no sense, because that law only exists to disclaim liability, not create it. If you don't have DMCA 512, that doesn't mean you no longer have to worry about takedowns. It means you can be sued for the actions of billions of your users. Furthermore, there were standing EU directives at the time that would have required Sweden to implement a DMCA 512-like law anyway.
While we're at the topic of engineering process failures - is there any research/literature about software engineering in general that describes all the hows and whys of large-scale programming like that?

Granted YouTube does still exist in the year 2022 so it had done its due diligence when it comes to representing and supporting LGBTQ+. But even 10 years ago there wasn't as much pressure to do so. Same sex marriage was only legalized last decade.

>Maybe you're okay with hyper sexualized content

I explicitly said that LGBTQ+ content could be demonetized _despite_ the fact it's not hyper sexual.

>but seems YouTube made the calculus they have more to gain keeping a wider audience than having a wider range of content.

>For YouTube, they are appeasing advertisers who do not want to align their brands with provocative content.

Neither of these are necessarily ethical goals (what if we're in Gilead and a woman showing her ankles is considered provocative). And I would argue that YouTube, by virtue of its near monopolistic power and pervasive reach, has some obligation to act ethically. And to be fair, they have got a little better at doing that specifically in regards to LGBTQ+ content over the past couple years, but we should remember that that wasn't the case and isn't necessarily the case.
I was just involved in a $50k RPA project. We have an EMR that the buyer of our facilities wanted data from. The EMR vendor gave us two choices, a SQL dump of everything (which we took but would take many months to decode what tables did what, basically reverse engineer the storage process) or let them export the subset of data we needed. The first was free, the second was $60k and would take 6 months. Knowing that vendor, it would take closer to 9-12 due to how backed up they are and how bad they are at time estimation.

Enter a third party vendor I'd worked with before. They specialize in archiving data from EMRs into a standalone searchable database. $50k and two months, they're done. The EMR has an IE only UI, and a newer cross platform UI. We demonstrated how to extract the data required for the new owner, and they created an RPA workflow to "print" to PDF 5k medical records. It's the exact same output the EMR vendor would have given us, but they'd have used their own internal tools to do it, but they'd have taken 3-6 times longer to do it.

RPA is just screen scraping, basically, and sometimes it's still useful.
Why does NASA let male astronauts stay in space longer than females?
Couldn't agree more - just like NoSQL vs regular old SQL - don't assume you need a NoSQL solution, until you actually prove you need it. probably 90-97% of solutions will be better off with a relational database; boring yes, but they 'just work'. Choose NoSQL only when you need them, choose micro services the same way.

If you 'think' you need NoSQL or a MicroService architecture - chances are you don't.
To note, honor meant a lot more during the samurai era. Someone who is not compassionate either comes across as manipulative or not alert to their surroundings. Manipulative people were bad allies. Inattention is a form of weakness. Dishonor wasn't just not being invited to parties, it could well mean death.
>they all interact with the larger ecosystem in the same way, so that devs at the company can move around to different services with ease, and onboarding is similar throughout.

But big enterprises inevitably lose "stack coherence" over time, through drift but also acquisitions. Finding the lowest common denomenator to operate and modify it all, while maintaining a high level of service (uptime, security, data integrity, privacy, value), turns out to be a tricky problem - just defining the product categories is a tricky problem!

Well I for one would love to see such a thing properly functioning. I've seen two attempts, but neither were successful.
Lime and other scooters in SF used to have much less expensive subscription options, but they've all recently dropped them for much more expensive ones.

You could generate a preview image in-camera as an aid, but you would be free to use external tools on the individual images afterwards.
Redefining what 100 IQ means is a distraction (which feels like a malicious distraction) from the actual topic here.
