I'm very open to corrections, but from what I recall of it, it was extremely custom to them, in terms of hardware, and seemed experimental. I suspect the logistics of managing a lot of custom equipment that wasn't making big money (as Amazon does with Graviton) wouldn't have been super appealing long term.
what a task it would be, to reconstruct the relations and cobble up a db from user data.
The point of the rebrand is not to hide the association, but to make people think Meta > Facebook.

I suspect it does help because a lot of hiring goes on for Quest, Instagram, Portal, WhatsApp, Workplace — you can talk to candidates about those specific products rather than make them think of grandpa posting right-wing memes on the blue app.

Yup, that is exactly what it sounds like. I learned this lesson many years ago, and this is why I no longer devote any significant amount of my time contributing to projects which someone else has the power to pull the plug on.

The irony.

Reddit users lament quite often that there are subreddits that will ban you for saying things against the viewpoints of those subs (r/(white|black)peopletwitter, r/the_donald, r/latestagecapitalism, etc). Sure, one can just make their own sub, but Twitter users can follow different people too.

Instagram users (the Gen Z ones) often have zero posts and use it mainly for its group or individual chat features, as everyone in their friend group has an IG. It's often preferred to not share photos on there as it's more private for them than having anyone who follows them to see their photos.

Twitter is not special in its toxicity, all social media is the same.

I think you're underestimating how much house construction has changed in just the last decade or two. Most detached houses are still stick framed, but the similarities end about there. Modern sheaving has integrated waterproofing membranes, air and water sealing tapes and fluids are applied to to all envelope intrusions, advancing framing is becoming common with 2x6 studs 24" on center to allow for more insulation, HRV/ERV integration into the HVAC system, continuous exterior insulation and blower door tests are required by code in most jurisdictions, I-joists and LVLs dramatically reducing the amount of solid wood and steel required to hold up a house, and the list goes on. The exteriors often look much the same for neighborhood character and consumer preference reasons, but the finished product performs dramatically better on energy consumption. That isn't to say there are not still some houses built with truly awful quality, but modern building codes are driving significantly better energy consumption. We then give back all those gains by building 4500 sq ft mcmansions to house a family of 3.

May I ask what your practices were that led you to the dark night, and how you then came out the other side? After years of meditation I've kicked it up a notch this past year, and feel like I'm approaching that dark night period. My feelings are somewhat muted, my previous interests and passions have dulled. It's hard to see the point in doing anything.

And why do you think they immediately took Crimea?...? It appears you're not really understanding the necessary observation I'm pointing out. I'm not talking about phase 2 here.

It's also not just about when they talked about NATO. There were already constructing ( shell of memory serves me right) gas extraction around Crimea. It was crippled during the invasion in 2014.

It could have probably replaced ALL Russian gas imports.

You was unclear. I ignored any hint of US blaming.

Instead, I put this all on the Euros. (BTW - West Germany doesn't get any credit for re-integrating the DDR - you're expected to take care of your own.)

The fall of the Soviet Union was a perfect opportunity for the Euros to show the US how it's done. It's in their backyard, they tell the US that they know how to deal with the USSR/Russia, and they claim to have the resources.

If what the Euros have been saying for years is true, there was no reason to have any US involvement in this project.

And yet you want me to accept that this is "the West's fault."

I do apologize for the Americanism - I wasn't actually admitting ignorance. Instead, I was pointing out that the Euros have made more than their share of screwups yet somehow always blame the US.

I first ran into this concept maybe 4-5 years ago while reading the GitLab handbook[1]. I have to say that I am a fan. I've been repeating this idea to every company and team that I have worked with since.

Lol, I recently had a potential issue where I switched teams and the team lead was new to the company. We had a daily standup thread in Slack. I would make the key ideas bold so it is easy to skim. The manager reached out a few weeks later and was taken aback by my "attitude" in these threads. He/she was assuming the bold text for anger and impatience (despite happening with both positive and negative ideas) while the original intent was to just ease reading comprehension. Now "assume positive intent" is always part of my intro spiel when working with new people.

How Real Are Moral Mazes (In Bay Area Startups)?
I think to a large degree technology is overrated. Especially in the long run.

The knight was not beaten by gunpowder or longbows but by vast hordes of peasants with halberds.

Those peasant hordes showed up because changes in society enabled rulers to field these large armies.

In order to conduct in a long lasting war with large armies one needs a society with "backbone".
The ability to lose a battle and still win a war is what makes a true great empire.
Few ancients could to this, like the Roman empire, the Assyrian empire, the Mayans and so on.

Medieval Europe (where the knights ruled) was a largely fragmented bunch of small states, where a lost battle often resulted in a complete defeat.

WW1 style trench warfare emerged in the American Civil war and the Crimean war. Neither machine guns nor barbed wire where deployed in mass.
Those wars where won by the ones who could hold out for longer.

Even WW2 was largely won by infantry and artillery, tanks and aircraft are way overrated.

Here are the German numbers for operation Barbarossa:

3.8 million personnel

3,350–3,795 tanks

3,030–3,072 other AFVs

2,770–5,369 aircraft

7,200–23,435 artillery pieces

17,081 mortars

600,000 horses

600,000 vehicles

There are a couple orders of magnitude between infantry and tanks.

The numbers for the attack on France look similar.

That tanks feature so prominently is due to propaganda (since those things look cool).

In modern societies, warfare is all about logistics, morale and the ability to take a punch.

Even a completely lopsided tech advantage can be negated if you survive the first few attacks.

That is one of the reasons why the Mongolians are gone but the Taliban are still there.
What exactly is "high performance" in this context? As far as output is concerned, I can only find this in the article:

> meet their goals consistently

And how do we reach the goal? Through a series of aspirational assertions, accompanied by hand waving.

How are being "team first" or "continuous learning" always prerequisites for meeting goals consistently? I can only assume the answer has something to do with faith, because it isn't at all clear here, though the author seems quite earnest.
They started to decline before then, if I recall correctly.

Most required dues; the Great Depression saw the roles sink dramatically as dues could not be paid.

Health insurance, home insurance, and other social safety nets were often paid for or covered in-kind through fraternal orders.

Fraternal orders (not sure of the general, non-gendered term) are an alternative community organization to religions that would do well to return.

EDIT: looks like we are both sort of right. The Freemasons continued to grow after WWII but the general ecosystem of fraternal orders started their decline after the New Deal. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_age_of_fraternalism

>This isn't the topic of discussion of this thread.

This is true, my intention isn't to derail the topic of the thread. Just pointing out that "whataboutism" is often just a defense for "stop pointing out my hypocrisy".

>Most nations of the EU (all?) have quit invading other sovereign nations to solve their disputes, especially overt landgrabs.

Unless its in Palestine or Western Sahara?

>Do you have a solution to propose?

Yes, perhaps if the West wasn't so hypocritical on ignoring its own numerous war crimes, then countries like China/India and entire regions like South America/Middle East would be more willing to support the West in conflicts like Ukraine. Its obviously too late for that now, but something to keep in mind for the future.

Its a tangential point, but you can't expect people to help you or care when you refuse to show them the same sympathy.
And you get to set your own schedule. Even business class, you can't do that. Even the most popular routes rarely have more than a flight once every 2 hours. So you might waste 1 hour 58 at the airport waiting for the next one.
Unfortunately what we typically end up with when learning math is:

1. Explain some problem that is difficult to solve using other techniques. The problem is painfully abstract and completely absurd.

2. Propose a technique to solve it. Never mind how we got to this technique or why it makes sense, just apply this equation and you'll get the answer. Memorize the numbers and symbols, that's all that matters.

3. Show that the technique also works on different (but really the same) problems.

4. Exam time! Here's a problem that looks nothing like the ones you've seen so far, but use the magic technique you memorized! You did memorize it right? Even though you didn't understand it at all?

5. This class is over so you will never use that technique again--even though it's generally useful, but since you never learned how to actually apply it or why it's useful, you'll forget it the day the exam is finished.

6. Math is great! Why don't people like math?!
I'm at least glad to see I'm not the only one. This has been a bit frustrating the last couple weeks. I was wondering where I had used my Google drive account that suddenly I was getting hit with them
I think this is outdated. Docker is a security boundary. There is no built-in way to get out of a Docker container just by asking by default (if you mount the socket into the container, it's trivial).

How good of a boundary it is may be another story. There's some seccomp filters going on and namespacing is pretty sweet too.

But an attacker can escape by exploiting the kernel, which I think most security people would consider to be not particularly high effort.

So, suitable for internal services that you generally trust, not suitable for hostile code or highly exposed services. In an ideal world maybe we'd all use Firecracker but it's not nearly as easy to do that vs just putting something in a container.

Inside each branch, we have access to a value of the more specific type.
EVGA made a line of capture devices that I suspect were made by either this brand or another similar OEM selling generic designs. They got nailed for advertising a lot of specs that were basically completely fake (the device could not do some of the modes at all, not just fake internal resolution but couldn't even output them) and then went through a couple rapid iterations of similar specs that were just fake.

EposVox has been doing a whole series. The whole market seems to be really shady and hit-or-miss if you don't go with a name-brand like elgato or blackmagic.

Huge number of sellers are just slapping their brand on an OEM design and the OEM doesn't seem to mind lying about what their design will do, and then the OEM is caught in the middle of angry customers and an OEM who just flagrantly doesn't care.

First and foremost, have a purpose or goal that's worthwhile. Everything we do starts with where we're coming from and where we're going. What you're describing is essentially low-level burnout. The cause of burnout is that we internally realize that our goals aren't worth the time and effort we're putting into them. The right solution is to find goals that are. This is how many people have been able to push themselves far past "burnout" levels without burning out. Because their purpose is rock solid.

This doesn't matter if the attacker is in the container. It just means that if the attacker is outside of the container they have a trivial privesc to root on the host.

Ha. If commenting were removed from FB it would collapse. If connecting were removed from LinkedIn it would collapse.

What is your point?
When you presume a feeling for someone else, you're robbing them of their own agency.

You may not even be wrong, but people have a right to choose how they feel about something, how something affects them, and the only way to know is to talk to them about it.

Attributing to someone a feeling or thought they themselves did not actually have is among the worst things you can reasonably do to someone on a daily basis without interacting with them at all.

I worry people don't quite realize how harmful this behavior is, or how often people do it.

The solution, as always, is to communicate. Just speak, using words, to the person you're inventing thoughts and feelings for. Often you've successfully detected something (we are social creatures, after all), but rarely are you right on the specifics.

I weaned myself off of laptops years ago. I still have one, but I hardly ever use it. For mobile purposes I use a Surface Pro with Linux installed. Laptops are terrible from a usability standpoint. It's a rare day when I want to use a machine without some kind of drink on hand. Spill that puppy the wrong way and your day and wallet are ruined. Laptop keyboards are always a compromise, just because you like yours doesn't mean it can't be massively improved. I want my display right in front of my face, craning my neck down caused no end of pain until I stopped using them.

Do yourself a huge favor.
This looks very interesting. Lately I've been playing a lot with the new photogrammetry API that Apple provides in Monterey on M1 (cloud instance) and it's working exceptionally well already compared to desktop based solutions to scan cars and humans.
