This is a free feature on GCP. Many features on GCP are free because they're bundled into the pricing.

> same people are making decisions in upper management.

That's not true. Google Cloud has its own CEO and a very different business model.

> they don’t make anything if it is not bringing more revenue.

Sure - they're a for-profit business. Google Cloud's revenue was $13bn in 2020, and as of last quarter it had a run rate of $22 bn. That money comes direct from paying customers. The business model of the consumer/ad side really is irrelevant here.
It's not a snipe. To be a "tastemaker" your taste eventually has to become mainstream. You say it yourself, Windows is a consumerist/default system. It rarely changes, and when it does, the users hate it. What has Windows taken from Linux? Certainly not the pages upon pages of black+neon tiling window managers of /r/unixporn. That's the part of the community concerned with customization. The rest just use stock KDE or GNOME. How is that different from Windows?
I was obsessed with the idea of smartwatches in 2011-2012 and was involved in a few early efforts that, while exciting, were more complex than what I was really dreaming of.

When the pebble kickstarter launched it was so close to what I had in mind, it was pretty disheartening. It's possible I even reached out on the website to seeing about joining the team :). I can't remember.

Anyway, what an inspiring product and team. Thanks for sharing the story, and for the honesty.
Sure. All that is true. And the credit card number ties your free GCE account to your profile with credit agencies that ad companies use to improve their targeting. It's not one thing or the other. It's both.

No CS Degree does interviews with self-taught devs

Just the sheer amount of big competitors to Fast should show you that it is not a nonsense project. Being a big player in a crucial part of ecommerce is valuable and many companies are trying to have a go at it.

BTW, going for "VCs aren't falling over themselves to fund my FOSS funding startup, therefore there is a sinister conspiracy because there is no possibility whatsoever that the idea itself is not very profitable" is itself somewhat of a red flag for investors. Few people want to invest in a founder who is convinced the entire world is conspiring against them.
You're right that my pom-pom action was serious, but it sounds like you're imaging a different kind of dilemma than I was. You're referring to walking away from an unproductive conversation, while I was responding to a cynical argument for choosing bad faith over good.
Don't be ridiculous. Google isn't a scam company that would charge your card for no reason.
No/yes.

The link is to http, the server does not redirect to https. So it works.

When manually adding the "s" (or using a browser that tries to upgrade on its own), then yes, certificate error. Not only that, ignoring it the server responds with an error.

Simply use a browser that does not try to enforce https.
If they are holding onto customer funds, then you definitely want it to show up on the balance sheet.

Are you saying they shouldn't be holding onto customer funds at all? If you disagree with their doing this on a moral or ethical level, then that is your prerogative, but they don't seem to be doing anything unusual or untoward.

The goals of CentOS Stream are way different than those of CentOS: https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/faq-centos-stream-updates

See "Q: Why was CentOS Stream created?", it is no longer rebranded RHEL with the same stability, but something akin to regular Ubuntu releases vs Ubuntu LTS.

Static blogs with pages generated at build time often load faster than pages that must be dynamically rendered at the time of request. A few reasons why this is so are: with static pages, there’s no backend processing with every page load, the static pages can often be cached, and there is often minimal JavaScript for the client’s browser to have to do.

Here’s an article that you may find illuminating:

https://www.section.io/engineering-education/client-side-ren...
It took me some thoughts to realize what you wanted to say, and you are incorrect: there is no single option `-f` in cc options! `-f` is just a common prefix of hundreds of independent options, like `-fsanitize=...` (which can't be used as `-f sanitize=...`). As I've iterated before, those prefixes mostly represent broad categories of options and not hard and fast rules: `-g` for debug, `-i` for directories, `-m` for target architectures, `-W` for warnings, and `-f` for virtually everything else.

Okay so your solution is to give as much room as phrenology wants. If it gets incredibly popular then so be it, let the masses think that certain races are less intelligent due to head sizes.

Who could that possibly hurt.
The article gives two reasons for the choice:

> 1. Accessibility

Here I agree with you that it feels like a workaround. Well, technically, it is not the browsers that need fixing, but rather Dragon Naturally Speaking and the NVDA screen reader.

> 2. Incrementable numbers (the fact that long series of digits get reinterpreted as large numbers, which causes all sort of issues, like them being reformatted in scientific 1.23e+45 notation)

Here instead it feels more like a legitimate things both on gov.uk's part and on the browser's part. "Numbers" and "long series of digits" are fundamentally different things, and it seems normal that they would be described with different input fields. (Now how those input fields should be named, that I am not qualified to have an opinion on.)
I’m sorry for the misunderstanding, but I believe I have quoted you accurately.
Chalk.ist – Create beautiful images of your source code
So you're planning on paying for all of your health care out of pocket, then, since an insurance plan is right out if you don't want to help collectively shoulder the risk? I hope you've done extraordinarily well for yourself, in case you get sick.

Personally I haven't done that well and could not afford my costs if they weren't pooled with other people. I'm happy that in my case this is publicly funded, so I don't have to deal with profit-maximizing private insurance companies who are at every turn actively trying to find reasons not to cover me.

I'm also glad that people where I'm from who are less fortunate than me don't have to go without needed health care because they aren't able to get good enough jobs. In fact, I care much more about the latter than you or me being able to choose between a bunch of options. And if you're doing so well and that's what you want, private health care is typically still an option even in countries with publicly funded systems.
Durham U's financials, especially sudden generous donations to its admins and professors, really deserve some attention. This wokeness campaign is a canonical example of astroturfing, funded by god knows who (CCP?), so fake it looks.

WebStorm 2022.1: Better Next.js Support, Volta Integration, and More
I guess I was imagining a single warning message at the top, “React is running in strict mode. This may result in you seeing console log messages twice. Read more here. Click here to disable this message for this site. Click here to disable this message globally”. Not too much noise really, especially if you can disable it per site or globally.

I do see where you are coming from, I’m just thinking of my experience where I spent 30 mins+ thinking I’d found a bug or fundamentally misunderstood React all these years or whatever, and it turned out it was just the strict mode - but because I was using Next.js I never explicitly opted in, so had no way of knowing this might start happening (unless I read every release note). I’m guessing a lot of other developers using Next might be similarly confused!
while a cat is falling it is in zero G

Are you saying that objects that are falling aren't impacted by gravity? Because that's not true...
Correct, public debate is theater.
Just from the top of my head I recall 3 healthcare workers (was it doctors?) that have been critical of the national Covid response who fell from windows. A diplomat in the russian embassy in Berlin. More than one journalist¹ — the only reason there might be no mathematician recently might be that the soviet union had a bigger use for methematicians.

That's funny, my main drive for choosing this strategy is taking account of opportunity costs ie. not wasting time.

The 'Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel' isn't really much like the actual Nobel Prizes (except maybe the Nobel Peace Prize, that one has proven to be a bit of a joke too, but at least it's a real Nobel Prize).
It's a tactic against spammers and trolls. It's believed that they are not as likely to continue the behavior as they would if they saw the immediate consequence of their actions.

I genuinely can't tell if this guy is trolling.
I am reminded of various quoates throughout my life:

1. "The human mind avoids nothing as much as thinking." -- Unknown, quoted by my dad

2. "We used to agree on the facts, and than argue about what do do. Now we simple disagree on the facts" -- Friend of Mine

3. "The quickest way to release stress hormones from the brain, unfortunately, is to 'beat' up someone else." -- My therapist

(1) Leads to humans always gravitating towards an explanation that reliefs them from thinking. Simple, short, populist messages are perfect for that.

(2) Has us end discussions before we even get to talk about what to do.

(3) Has us make feel good when we can "beat" up someone else on social media.

IMHO, it is bringing these three together in social media, and more importantly doing so mostly subconsciously, that makes this so toxic.

Edit: Layout
Does it have good API for extending with what's missing compared to Atlassian/Microsoft/Jetbrains offerings, i.e. the tight connection between issue tracking other aspects than issue tracking such as builds, deployments etc? E.g. how pull requests are related to work items, or which work items end up in a specfic build/deployment etc?
Humans are collectivist by nature. It's why we've survived for so long and formed societies. People have to be taught to be divided which is why so much work has to be put into keeping things that way (ideology, class, race, ethnicity).

The thing is that pre-acquisition mailchimp was an example of a place tech employees loved to work but not for the equity. The founders built a strong internal culture of private ownership and then bailed for a payday. If any other company sold out and employees got short changed, it wouldn’t make the news.

https://www.businessinsider.com/mailchimp-insiders-react-to-...
> When employees were recruited to work at Mailchimp there was a common refrain from hiring managers: No, you are not going to get equity, but you will get to be part of a scrappy company that fights for the little guy and we will never be acquired or go public.

About the memory part, it can be interesting to see in a perfectly black spherical chamber to first lose sensation of any direction, then to try the experiment to rule out the possible effect of memory.

Yet, I hope no one tries this as it might perhaps be traumatic to cats.
It’s a pretty good list.

However, having the following as “red flags” is a “red flag” to me. Although I’d pass them, they seem more like cultural biases than appropriate measures of quality.

- “Has never participated or built an alumni community based on previous experience”
Why would Google know that some of them are less safe than others?

Just have variations that don't dominate each other. Variant A could be better at some things, and variant B could be better at other things, etc.

(Otherwise, we should use your argument to only allow exactly one company with the 'best' system on the road. Instead of allowing competition.)

Google could even officially outsource the different variants to different nominally independent companies, if that's what's legally required to not get the whole fleet grounded.
This is an extremely dangerous (and quite frankly stupid) way of thinking. Discourse is discourse, regardless of how you feel about it. When people feel as though "bad" faith discourse needs to be controlled through curation, censorship, or through some other means, you end up with idiots like Twitters Parag Agrawal saying things like "Our role is not to be bound by the First Amendment, but our role is to serve a healthy public conversation." https://www.technologyreview.com/2020/11/18/1012066/emtech-s...
The "endgame" of "bad faith" communication is the endgame of your freedom of speech and expression. I agree that people ought to be more compassionate and open-minded, both on the internet and in real life, but I am in no position to control what another person thinks or says, and I'm certainly not in a position to make the judgement of what "good" or "bad" faith discourse is. No one is.

This entire article is buzzword trash, using terminology such as "post-truth" and statements such as "Seeking to understand others and communicate honestly is an essential democratic virtue".
Since I haven't seen it mentioned in the comments yet, here's another interesting project in the general area of "WASM without Emscripten":

https://github.com/schellingb/wajic

This provides an alternative implementation of Emscripten's EM_JS() magic (embed Javascript snippets right in the C/C++ source code), but without requiring a full Emscripten SDK installation. It still needs some additional tools next to Clang though, so it sits somewhere between "pure Clang" and "full Emscripten SDK".
That whole channel is a goldmine of old school electronics repair. Thanks for sharing.

I'm already the parent and "that guy" in various settings who refuses to join the Whatsapp group and it hasn't had any meaningful effect on my life.

Most of the time people already were sending out emails as well, and they (perhaps begrudgingly) continue to do so to accommodate people like me.

The signal to noise ratio in these Whatsapp groups is extremely low.
Hmm. I no longer log into Twitter, but I do browse it without being logged in[0]. At least with regard to Brexit (about which it seems the argument is still raging), pro and anti do seem to engage with each other, the problem is they reject each other’s evidence.

With that thinking, there’s a lot to feel bad for. People with demanding jobs, people who are sick, people in countries with no freedom, people with death of loved ones, people who give life pursuing dreams and failed, lonely people, people with disabilities, people experiencing war / natural disasters / pollutions.

I think as human we should aim to contribute to betterment of the world. Empathy is good, but feeling bad for isn’t at grand scale. You can feel bad for your friend’s misfortune I suppose.
Yeah, on prem is not affected. But they're discontinuing on prem, making customers even more dependent on their hosted services. Bravo!

My favourite interaction with negative dentries was with PHP's curl library, built with NSS for encryption. NSS would do some kind of filesystem performance check, intentionally opening lots of files that didn't exist. At one point, every server in a large autoscaling group was spending 10GB EACH just on the dentry cache. :-)

I get what you’re saying.

But remember laws like DOMA that were passed not very long ago that were explicitly written to prevent states from expanding rights.

And almost all recent civil rights advancements have not come from congress but the courts. Since the Civil Rights Act, the trend is that congress and the executive narrows rights and the court broadens them.
And it preserves the integrity of the community at a larger scale.
yeah on the surface it does seem strange, however its actually quite normal in the agriculture space where Im working to develop this platform out.

For example, we have "farm managers" that are actually members / associated with multiple farms. One Farm manager that helps manage multiple farms owned by different organisations.

BTW most of these farms are SME style farms, and thus dont have their own domain and thus dont have unique first.last@uniquedomain.com email address. As a result, users use their personal email address to access the system.

But yes, Need to have a one user to many organisation structure.
Other pretty much required apps:

* Spectacle - gives you a normal maximise shortcut
* Karabiner elements - fix home/end, swap ctrl and command on external keyboards, fix the British keyboard layout etc. Also let's you work around the bug where it forgets you have an ISO keyboard.
* Itsycal - an actual calendar in your menu bar
* Something to disable scroll acceleration for real mice. There are a couple of paid apps for this.
I dunno. I just want a focus group on a desktop, where switching is related to the project I’m doing. For example one desktop vscode, iterm, browser.
And another desktop about productivity.

The problem with switching is that you quickly get too many windows / apps.

I tried to have a user per group, but that does T work fast enough.

The best setup for me is 2 or 3 machines, linked with synergykvm
The most concerning, in my opinion, is how young people can't have an open and healthy conversation about mental health with their peers without having to resort to speaking in code. All strides to normalize mental health discourse is being undone in the name of profit and advertising.
A long way of saying that China has been seeing investment outflows.

Yes agree. My Github account is linked to multiple organisations. Some of which Im admin, some im just a member of. I agree that It is probably more common and actually a more realistic representation of the real world.

My view is that a single identity is a better experience than multiple isolated identities.
Ive been working on windows OSes for few years before my employer finally let me use macbook.

It was the best switch I could make. I had fully working linux distribution together with superb UX of MacOS.

Recently switched jobs and again back to Windows. Now I see how many things that simply work out of the box on MacOS you have to hack-in on Windows to be even able to work as a software developer.

WSL2 is also such a pain to work with. Quality of Microsoft apps on Windows is also worse than Microsoft apps on MacOS. For example -> MS Teams on Windows constantly hangs up or freezes. Never had such issues on MacOS. Beside OS nothing changed in my home office.
-w should be equivalent to -uu surely!
I'd guess it's, somewhat obviously, strongly context dependent.

If you're talking to people who, for w/e reason, have large influence on your life, who you are stuck with and who are not very numerous, investing heavily in enforcing communications standards should pay off. Similarly in cooperative setting with aligned incentives you would expect assuming good faith to work out well.

Now, in social media, sales or a large fluid organization...
You can find a ticket from Madrid to Paris taking 10.5 hours for 226 EUR.
Interesting!

Though: I can believe that our arrangement is a local optimum, sure. (Local in some genetic sense.)

That still doesn't make me believe that are anywhere close to a global optimum. Behold the octopus:

> Do these design problems [of optical blind spots] exist because it is impossible to construct an eye that is wired properly, so that the light-sensitive cells face the incoming image? Not at all. Many organisms have eyes in which the neural wiring is neatly tucked away behind the photoreceptor layer. The squid and the octopus, for example, have a lens-and-retina eye quite similar to our own, but their eyes are wired right-side out, with no light-scattering nerve cells or blood vessels in front of the photoreceptors, and no blind spot.

>Many of the original mathematical ideas that originated outside the west were simply discarded till somebody in the west came up with the same idea later (sometimes, centuries later) and are credited with the discovery.

Could you name some? It's quite widely known that many ideas in mathematics are centuries (or millennia) old and came from other cultures and geographies. The very name of "algebra" refers to its Arabic roots, and was developed there during a golden era of sophistication and development many centuries ago. Is it a problem that ideas persist and move on, beyond their original geographical and cultural bounds?

Personally, I don't think this is even the issue that the "de-colonise maths" crowd are trying to address. As I see it, this is the supposed root cause of the disparity in math grades between students of various ethnic groups, and the concept of "colonised maths" has been developed backwards from there.
