Anyway, no surprise about Java there, I've observed the same, and worse, over several years. (That still doesn't stop Java centric teams from using it).

For that reason, I generally prefer NodeJS when working with API Gateway + Lambdas, since the frequency of invocation is unknown, I'd rather not cater to solving for noticeable cold starts with provisioned concurrency and other workarounds.

Also... I naïvely thought that all compiled languages would have this cold start problem with roughly the same timings, but .NET's cold start isn't too bad. Why is that?

Strong disagree. GraphQL has given our dev teams huge leverage. It's similar to writing a page of HTML rather than the equivalent GUI code. That might not look helpful if you're already a GUI master, but it's a big productivity win for a mixed team of designers and coders. A vague query specification that used to take a week to turn around has now become a precise query specification that we can turn around in under 250ms.

Right, GB for GB ES is much easier to scale than Postgres (or any other DB) but probably also more expensive since ES is much more memory and compute hungry. But I can't say I have an apples-to-apples comparison since the use case for ES is usually "dump massive amounts of raw data in and index everything" which you wouldn't typically do with a Postgres instance. But in places where we have run large ES clusters my experience has not really been that it works without any user intervention (at least once you reach a certain scale) and that it involved a lot of operational support. Not that any other solution with comparable features would have been easier necessarily but still not easy in any absolute sense.
Yes you should be able to, or with slightly more friendly software like gQRX or SDRSharp. It also looks like you can receive and decode the key signals using rtl_433[0] with option -R 64. Although it's a bit confusing looking at the source for the honda key rtl_433 decoder, as the author states it does not decrypt the rolling code.[1] According to the CVE there is no rolling code.

Owner and modder of a nearly-classic Honda here. Yes, the older models have the same vulnerability. Please forgive the awful pun based on the author's mistranslated Japanese and focus on the technical part: https://github.com/HackingIntoYourHeart/Unoriginal-Rice-Patt...

(Honda does not mean "Original Rice Patty." It literally means "Original (as in older) Rice Paddy", but you wouldn't translate Henry Ford's surname as "Shallow River Crossing.")

Honda enthusiasts commonly store their cars in private garages, install hidden killswitches and avoid keeping items in their cars.
Pick R83 is an (8086 real mode) operating system for the IBM PC. It runs a byte code virtual machine, and has a compiler for a dialect of BASIC which generates that byte code as output. Most programs were written in BASIC, although the system also had a byte code assembler and some system-level software was written in that instead. Its filesystem is rather primitive in some ways (it only has single-level directories, a directory cannot contain subdirectories), but at the same time supports key-indexed files, which was essential for the business database applications it was used to run. There was never (as far as I know) a C compiler, although in principle someone could have compiled C to the same bytecode that BASIC was compiled to. It is multi-tasking and multi-user, albeit its security is rather primitive by today's standards (as one might expect for a real mode 8086 operating system). Does that count as "running other programs"? If it does, just make your "single program" be an interpreter (Tcl, Lua, whatever you wish) and now you have a "real operating system".

(The byte code for R83's VM, called Pick assembly, came from Pick's earlier non-PC hardware systems, in which it was actually the hardware machine language, implemented by microcode; I believe the parts of the system which ran on top of the VM were a pretty direct port from those earlier platforms. R83 was succeeded by Advanced Pick, which supported both running as a standalone OS – AP/Native – or as a process on top of a host OS – AP/Unix and AP/DOS. AP/DOS was later succeeded by AP/NT for Windows NT, and Advanced Pick eventually evolved into D3, which is still around – now sold by Rocket Software. D3's virtual machine environment, VME, is a direct descendant of the same byte code VM, although it now supports much deeper integration with the AIX/Linux/Windows host platform than the original hosted AP versions did. Early MUMPS systems were similar in being hosted directly on the hardware, but Pick as an operating system arguably lasted a decade or more longer than MUMPS as an operating system did.)

This seems to hold in other contexts. People tend to tolerate price discrimination at an aggregate level (e.g. senior/student discounts) but loathe individual-level price discrimination (e.g. college tuition). I wonder if it's the unfairness or uncertainty

No, that's a very different metaphor.

I'd say so, from the perspective of utility and persistence. 4 (maybe 5 including spare) uniquely serialized radio beacons make a good target for dragnet surveillance with zero risk to abusers.

I'm also more weary of scam extended warranties than I am of kidnap and ransom, even though one is obviously far more unpleasant than the other.

Gotta agree there. And I have had a good relationship with that neighbor for 20 years. Now down the tubes because of a little bird shit. Ah, well, I value my bird friends more, TBH.
Eh, I’m kinda implicated here but I see office interactions as some bare minimum of socialization that, yes, can lead to complacency but does not subtract from the ideal of finding meaningful relationship outside of work. If anything, face to face work helps energize me to be social, and not just with my coworkers. More like a daily practice against Cabin Fever. For some reason, for me, Cabin Fever self-perpetuates.

I still prefer WFH, but I go to a coffee shop most days of the week to work on a personal project. After a year+ my relationship with the other regulates and staff is like the best possible relationship you’d expect to have among coworkers - I’ve even grabbed a beer with the manager when then closed early one day - without the stresses of working for a common employer.
An example of something that I couldn’t do with earlier non-generic versions of Go: implement the lodash functions in Go with a nice DX[1]. I kept using []T though, and the article has a good example of how to improve that to work with slice based type, not just slices.

So many simple daily use methods like map, forEach, any, all, reduce etc feel much better now.

On the whole generics here seem neat, well thought out, easy to understand and usable, while still allowing you to completely ignore them if you want. Most declarations fit neatly into libraries, with usage often never even having to mention or even know about type declarations (See the examples on the lib). That was a nice change from Java - the inference is pretty nice and neat from what I’ve seen so far.

I’m sure we’ll find it being pushed to its limits, like with ORMs and multi chaining, and that might be ugly, but on the whole I’m very satisfied with this addition.

When i was at Microsoft, i recall an engineer saying that corporate puts that in there so that when somebody is caught giving bribes they can point to them and say they're a lone wolf, bad actor, etc., because clearly the policy is not to give bribes, and they took the training course in this, we documented that...

Implication: they can fire that employee and continue to give bribes.

Ps. Full disclosure, I never witnessed anybody giving bribes, nor worked with anyone who would be in a position to do so.
No one actually likes condoms, condom use recommended as a gold standard is just flippant judgey bullshit from people who don’t actually get sex. Condoms don’t prevent a lot of STDs and they don’t always work without failure, but god forbid we accept and design around what normal mammals have done for millenia.

If you’re concerned about HIV there’s PrEP, if you’re concerned about bacterial infection there’s antibiotics, and for everything else you likely already have it (unless you’re a virgin who browbeats people over condom use).
You would save the records for deductions or business expenses or whatever as a bookkeeping measure - and as a tax precaution, yes - even if you were not expecting an audit. Audits are fairly unusual.

(Way, way upthread jacquesm cited tax audits as a reason for these records to be physically provided, but they're a useful and common means of communication when employing a tax preparer or bookkeeper as well. And back to the original point, this is all even more likely to be true of an "old" person.)

The cost of saving paper records, for an individual, is fairly close to zero, whereas it's a colossal pain in the butt to track down stuff later. Make that mistake once and you won't do it again.
Yeah I just mute the tabs and set video speed to as fast as it’ll let me. Ours has little quiz sections but you pretty much always get infinite tries and it doesn’t take a genius to guess the answers.
Games like League of Legends and most physical sports are red-herrings when it comes to thoughtful strategy, because frequently you can win these games by simply outperforming your opponent in raw strength or agility, even if they have the theoretically superior strategy. Among these games, it is relatively uncommon to have perfectly matched opponents where strategy determines the victor.

A strategic culture based on these games might think that brute force is always the best "strategy". Sound familiar?

I think the best game to teach the essence of strategy is Roshambo, or "Rock-Paper-Scissors". According to game theory, the optimal strategy (Nash Equilibrium) is to pick your move at uniform random, in which case you will "not lose" 66% of the time. But in face-to-face practice, a skilled Roshambo player will outright win more than 33% of games. How? Because humans are not robots and aren't good at RNG. Fundamentally, strategy is not about studying game rules and theory! It is about understanding your opponent's perspective and thus forecasting their next move. RPS provides an excellent platform for understanding strategy in this context, especially when done in real-time, face-to-face.

Even in the domain of robots, RPS offers insight into how a simple but nontrivial game can lead to complex metagames of composite strategies. See how Python bots can achieve 80% winrate against a field of lesser bots [1].

"Life insurance won't pay out if you commit suicide" sounds like a common misconception/noble lie worth perpetuating.

On the one hand, I'm generally in favor of trusting people to make the right decisions for themselves based on their own circumstances if they're given enough information. On the other hand, if that one piece of information means the difference between life and death... then I feel a bit more confident in asserting that everyone is probably better off with them living.

The only place where the text looks remotely smudged to me is in the low contrast bits in the header. It’s very difficult for me to tell the difference otherwise, especially considering that it’s high DPI.

And h264 is old, and I’m using software x264 with fairly modest settings. More modern general video codecs like h265, VP9, perhaps even AV1 can eek out slightly better fidelity at similar bitrates, at the cost of higher complexity. (But if it can be hardware accelerated at both ends, it basically doesn’t matter.)

And these codecs are designed for general video content… it would be instructive to see exactly what kind of performance could be achieved if using lossless codecs or codecs designed for screen capture like ffv1 or TSC2.

It would be… but honestly, there’s no point, because all I was trying to illustrate is that I sincerely doubt 8 MiB/s is the best that can ever be done for a decent desktop experience. Judging by Qt issue reports, it’s worse than what Qt used to be able to accomplish. If you really like your X11 setup, there’s no reason to change it, because it isn’t going to become unusable any time soon. Even if you switch to Wayland in the future, you should still be able to use `ssh -X` with Xwayland as if nothing ever really changed.

This is all a serious tangent. The actual point was that again, X11 doesn’t have any built-in scaling. All along, it was Qt 4+, GTK 3+, and other X11 clients that have been handling all of the details. And traditionally, it wasn’t good. And even contemporarily, it still has issues. Beckoning to the “way X11 did it” makes no sense because 1. X11 as a protocol or server never did anything 2. Even then, historically toolkits have had a lot of trouble dealing with it. The fact that you set the DPI for Xft specifically, which is just a font rendering library, hints at the reality: what oldschool X11 “scaling” amounted to in the 2000s was changing how font sizes were calculated. Modern toolkits just read this value to infer the setting, and it still isn’t good enough for many modern setups that Linux desktops want to support.

While condoms used correctly are 98% effective, typical use is only 78% effective. Condoms sometimes break, especially if you don't use them correctly. You also have to be conscientious about pulling out after ejaculation, which isn't necessarily the most satisfying conclusion to sex. They have to be applied correctly and fitted correctly.

Pills also have a lot of failure modes, of course. But they can provide a more "natural", smooth experience to sex. You don't have to interrupt the process to apply one -- and sometimes that can lead to further interruptions.

For me, the more modes of protection the better. I could see wanting to use both a condom AND a pill -- the former for STDs, the latter to be extra-certain about pregnancy. The risk may be low but the consequences are very high. You should absolutely use a condom until you are close enough to be "fluid bonded".
Also, if you don't have replacement cost coverage you're either eating depreciation to buy new again, or hoping you can find a used one in the right cost/quality window.
Eventually disaster strikes everyone. Knowing this helps me traverse life with humility.
My point is that, once you’ve paid the capital cost for, say, 1GW of nuclear, the marginal cost of energy produced is low and you can adjust the production on fairly short timescales. I’m not saying you should, but the calculation is different from a natural gas or coal plant in which the marginal cost of energy is much higher.
Which is sad. Should be treated like sexual assault

I will push back. Relatively good senior engineer (that can leetcode) will cap out at 400-500k. I think if one can code and likes to, this is a great deal. There are alot of companies hiring in this range.

I would say most people, even most people still using paper billing in 2022, have a billing method set up (be it CC charges, direct debits or standing order) that would allow their bill to continue to be paid for their main utilities in the absence of receiving a paper bill. It's these people who the companies would rather cajole onto paperless billing.

Then there is the group who are still going to insist on/need paper bills, but use technology enough to catch the email about changing and use the opt out process.

I wouldn't say it's a dastardly plot to kick my elderly neighbour off their service, but simple disregard that people like her that would fall through the cracks while they're trying to save money with the first group.

Let’s just say “signals that people believe correlate with various sorts of bad behavior,” which consistently happen to be identified with out-groups.

Having said that, the counter-examples to even that are legion: the professor who’s detained opening the door to his own house, the birdwatcher who gets the cops called on him, the college student shot while lost in the suburbs, the executive who’s pulled over all the time when turning into his neighborhood. (I’ll add to that a friend who was an NFL player whose frequent and threatening run-ins with the cops while playing in Georgia weren’t caused by sartorial or automotive lapses, but his white fiancé.)

I can relate to this. Seems to be an industry-wide phenomenon. It probably explains what's going on with the world.
> Tokens _are_ worthless if no one wants to buy them, and pretending that is somehow different than startup equity is ignorant at best and downright predatory in the worst cases.

Fundamentally not true. Unlike traditional markets, crypto exchanges work by leveraging AMM liquidity pools. Obviously, a token can go up/down based on supply and demand, but if there's liquidity you can literally always sell. Confusing early-stage startup equity is by far more predatory than giving someone some shitcoin with a vesting schedule. Any argument to the contrary is either disingenuous or misinformed.

With traditional equity offerings, you need to worry about: what class of stock did you get, what's the vesting preference, will you get diluted, what if you get fired, etc. I'm hardly a crypto bro, but imo startup equity is one of the biggest scams around that often takes advantage of young and inexperienced engineers that don't quite understand its financial underpinnings.
