I think Formula E is kind of useless. Racing competitions can be a good engine for innovation, but last I heard Formula E has all cars using a standard battery. Isn't the battery the biggest thing we want to improve on EVs?

They hold the races in cities instead of "real" race tracks, which I guess is cool if that's your home town but as a (lukewarm) racing fan I would rather see tracks I know. I wonder if they also want to avoid comparisons with ICE race cars. The Gen 2 Formula E did 0-60 in 2.8s... which is achievable in some ICE street cars. Hopefully the Gen 3 is more impressive.
Not disagreeing on fubared but the reports I've read say 4C by 2100. Not 20.
i suggest reading terms of services first

https://developers.google.com/terms

then go to Google’s issue-tracker and search for the API you are looking to use, check how many bugs are open currently and how long it takes them to resolve

http://issuetracker.google.com/

in case of the APIs i was using a bug could take months till it even gets accepted

often the APIs don’t have versioning, so when they make a breaking change you can’t simply go back to an older version, instead you’ll have to update your code

good thing is that they usually notify when the changes happen so you have some time to make adjustments
> tailwind also requires a build system and introduces 500+ npm dependencies, which is a huge security risk

Compile time != run time. Those dependencies will never get to any form of production code.
How so?

By "most players" you mean excluding the very top, right?
Adobe Acrobat hollowing out same-origin policy
Adding more because I've read her book (not to quibble). I wouldn't say the point is that new physics is out of reach until we build more expensive accelerators. She herself is a theoretical physicist, has theories she'd like to see tested and proposes experiments that could do so. I think she's saying rather that particle physics involves enormous opportunity costs -- decades long / billion dollar experiments -- and that the research agenda is not scientifically justified, but is sociological and even aesthetic in origin.
With the basic idea that you should never crash due to something outside your process call stack (whether that be disk full or network problems or bad messages or bad values in a database) and always abort immediately with an email and stack trace to yourself or equiv on internal logic errors.
Thanks for this information. I agree with Dr. Hossenfelder about naturalness, but personally, I don't think that (or anything else here) justifies saying, about those who promoted the LHC with their expectations, that they were "either incompetent or lying or both." Irresponsible? maybe, depending on how influential their position was and how forcefully they made the claim.
I was responding to your scenario of having to “add error checking to every line of code” due to the absence of an exception mechanism, and your assertion that “it's too much work for too little reward”. My point was that in that situation (no exception mechanism available) it’s often irresponsible to not do that work, because the possible consequences are unpredictable. I fully agree that having an exception mechanism is the way to go, so that adding error checks every other line isn’t necessary anymore.
She's a contrarian physicist. Every good physicist has one weird opinion, but she's collected every one of them and used them to beat anyone in hearing range over the head. No single take is far from the norm, but in terms of layman's content it's easy to get a really warped idea of the dominant paradigm.

Honestly I think fewer people would have an issue with her if she was like 80% less abrasive, no matter how out there her ideas are. So keep watching, but be aware that there are conflicting viewpoints with more significant backing.
The Generic Millennial Ad went viral just 4 years ago.

I was surprised that the ad is starting to look dated now.

Gen Z fashion is way different. It looks more like the video of the first link on my parent post.

Not only fashion but also the color grading applied to the videos. Many recent videos now use way more pink and magenta tones. And also perhaps camera lens set up is different, different focus length I think
If it’s not a good fit it’s not a good fit, we have choice!

I also pointed to compute and bandwidth alliance members that augment Cloudflare very well so you can build whatever you want while still taking advantage of the Cloudflare edge.

Or put Cloudflare as a CDN or augment with what they do have in front of whatever cloud you want. Azure and GCP are limited members of the alliance that offer reduced pricing egress to Cloudflare.

I'm also 58 and still mostly active in software development. I say "mostly" because I did give early retirement a try - it lasted about 2 years and then my current job came along, looked really interesting and here I am.

It's not just my brain that's not as elastic - my body isn't so elastic anymore either. I can't sit for more than an hour or so before I've gotta get up and take a foam-roller break. Lots of aches and pains that I'm finding are causing me to lose focus.

After ~2 years of not working I found that I didn't much care for it - I needed more purpose or something. Just felt like I was floating along not going anywhere. I think the happy medium would be to work 3 days/week. I could do that indefinitely. Not really be retired and not really be working full time. It would work monetarily as well since the house is nearly paid off and we have no other debt. But software development gigs where you only work 24hrs/week seem to be quite rare.
Thanks for posting that link to Java tail recursion library, super handy + didn't know about it. You need tail recursion for writing expression evaluators/visitors frequently.

I've been using an IntelliJ extension that can do magic by rewriting recursive functions to stateful stack-based code for performance, but it spits out very ugly code:

https://github.com/andreisilviudragnea/remove-recursion-insp...

> "This inspection detects methods containing recursive calls (not just tail recursive calls) and removes the recursion from the method body, while preserving the original semantics of the code. However, the resulting code becomes rather obfuscated if the control flow in the recursive method is complex."

It was this guy's whole Bachelor thesis I guess:

The other point is the lack of follow up. I have had sometimes given in even with vague requirement and send my resume, but then I get nothing back. I don't expect to be the most appropriate candidate for every job. Just let me know - good or bad news.
Yes. The EURO emissions regulations will make it essentially impossible to sell a new, purely ICE-powered car in the near future (in Europe). Every new car will be a bloated hybrid, designed entirely to scrape through the emissions and efficiency requirements.

We don't have a blog. That's a good idea! We'd planned to make videos for youtube, but so far it's been too much additional work to film ourselves while we work, and we haven't made it happen.

Maybe "throwaway notes" is the part that makes a difference. After I finish a notebook, I usually sit down and fill out the table of contents for which I normally allocate 2 or 4 pages at the beginning, because I will refer to those notes in the future.
I think the same model gets larger each generation because of marketing reasons. And since all the manufacturers are doing this, no manufacturer can escape from this. At the top of the line models disappear, at the bottom of the line new models get added.

Where it goes wrong is at the bottom of the line. There are now so many safety regulations (I am looking at you, EU), that these cars get heavier and more costly to make. Many manufacturers decide to step out or up their game. 10 years ago, the cheapest model of a manufacturer would maybe be 10 thousand Euro. Now it easily starts at 15 thousand Euro, and it will mostly be a model of some years ago. New models at the low and small end are priced heavier, because of all these safety regulations.
You know, I'm hitting that point now myself. How do you find trusted supplement providers?
Read Jerry Mander. Not much has really changed here.

TV ads may give you weird feelings, but they still get the ad implanted in your head.

What worries me personally is that the casual nature of ads being sponsored on individual's accounts on TikTok is more alarming. It's like we welcome these implanted messages like it's normal, and in fact it's so faux because those creators need money to survive too.

Do also pay attention to the emotions behind each ad, they are usually very uplifting for something very tragic or something very dark for something that's not even a problem to begin with.

Advertisers don't have to do much work anymore when they can pawn off their dirty work to people with established followings shilling product they themselves will never use.
But that way of thinking cuts both ways. “He’s not even using the most basic forms of marketing tricks. How socially inept this person must be. How can I trust that he writes maintainable code if he’s not aware of these very basic human triggers?”

The European 'we' who like using public transit and bike is unfortunately a small minority.

In France, if you add those two modes, you barely get over 10-12% of the number of moves people make.

The number of cars has again increased by 10% in the last decade. It has doubled since the 80s, when we thought that almost everyone who needed a car had one, and that they were already too many and had bad influence urban planning and many other aspects. The progression seems to never stop.

It's a flood of cars. If I take my municipality, there are more individual cars and vans than people who can drive them. It is not uncommon to see households with 3 or 5 cars. Cars are parked everywhere (rarely on owners' property, though); and that's before city people come over for the week-end or holidays (2/3 of houses are secondary residences)...

Everywhere but in large cities, local elected officials keep on pushing projects of motorways 'for economic development' like it was 1972 (a strategy which hasn't worked in 60 years, but eh...), spending tens and hundreds of millions of €, sometimes in direct competition of an existing or abandoned railroad. A case a few dozen miles away from my place: €200M for a 2 km bypass (no 0 is missing or extra). They have bottomless pockets for roads.

To play devil’s advocate:

People forget that drunk driving laws started as the result of activist campaigns from special interest groups only a few decades ago.

It is itself a victimless crime; we have existing laws against reckless driving, causing accidents, vehicular manslaughter, etc.; and as this study shows there are plenty of common, less regulated (i.e. showing no signs of impairment yet blowing into a measurement device cannot get you nailed) driving conditions which are as bad or worse than drunk driving.

I'm glad you mentioned ketamine because I was about to recommend you psychedelics. I can't say I'm cured from depression -- in fact I'm still extremely close to killing myself -- but mushroom trips have been my saviors. Now I just need to start taking advantage of the improved baseline of mood and openness to experience that lingers for a few days (which is unusually short-lived from what I've researched but still useful) to do these things that are "supposed to feel good" and self-sustain for longer.

Just please do some research as this stuff is not risk-free.
Not really drugs. Supplements that the nootropics community are pushing. They might work and they might not - there's not a lot of double-blind studies on these things yet. The ones that have been done show mixed results.
Part of the fun of the Web3 startup scene is that tokens can be liquid out of gate and are basically just a variable in a file to begin with, so trivial to make out of thin air for new hires. There's stories of 20-somethings getting 7 or even 8 figure pay days after 6 months work from a successful launch.
I really dislike the js ecosystem, but as mentioned in my other comment, there is barely any security risk in shipping a compiled css file. Most of the deps are just there for file system watching and live-reloads.

Regarding web components, you can just use them with tailwind, they are not complementers. Hell, if you want to have a stylized button, of course just write it once, but the reusability comes from it being a component — I really have to question the reusability of CSS styles that are more complex than a few properties. Like, do you honestly reuse the style of a button in your menu? Perhaps the color scheme and font, but those should be variables to begin with.

Bonuses were not a symptom of the crisis, if you look at what products were at the heart of things like the Lehman Brothers collapse, who created, traded and sold them, and what incentives they had individually, you'll see that those bonuses go right to the heart of the problem.
I find these subtle, yet extremely intense neuroses we see so often in Western cultures fascinating. The patient remarks on one TikTok video in particular that seemingly tormented him. I had never once thought a few inches height difference in a couple was odd or even worth remarking upon and yet there seems to be this vast, largely untapped sensitivity in men being short. Similar things for sexual activity (incels) and breast size (breast augmentations are by far the top cosmetic surgery). They all seem to be little things people joke about sometimes but which have disproportionately negative effects on the butt of the jokes' psyches. I wonder if this is unique to Western/materialistic cultures or more widespread. Whichever, I am sure the scale of social media makes these neuroses worse.
Linode's future is very hard to predict with them very newly part of Akamai. I wish them the best, of course. and I currently use them for my personal VPS. But it would be a risky time to pick them as the platform on top of which to build a new business.
I think they refer to the following suggestion:

> Doc comments work best as complete sentences, which allow a wide variety of automated presentations. The first sentence should be a one-sentence summary that starts with the name being declared. [...] If every doc comment begins with the name of the item it describes, you can use the doc subcommand of the go tool and run the output through grep. Imagine you couldn't remember the name "Compile" but were looking for the parsing function for regular expressions, so you ran the command [...]

For me their interactive elements don't even work. It's stuck on the first page and clicking does nothing. In any case, I don't think this article is going to change anyone's mind, because the NYT is just a left-leaning media outlet at this point in the same way that Fox is right leaning. No conservatives who watch Tucker are going to have a change of heart from an NYT smear piece, in the same way that no liberals who watch Rachel Maddow would have a change of heart from a WSJ smear piece.
If they give a base pay increase, then they can't take it from you next year! This is how FAANG companies work, give you a lot of incentives in the form of one time bonus, so if they don't like you they will take most of your future compensation in the next year. They also keep you working as a dog to keep your total compensation from falling.
Yeah, it's definitely not for beginners. It assumes you have a fairly good understanding of programming, and now care to make sense out of languages.
As I understand it, height bias factors into who gets leadership positions in the first place. Maybe that phenomenon decreases as a result of remote work, though.

> But the bonus is just an incentive mechanism.

Sure. It's an incentive mechanism to be seen as better than your peers.

> The question really is what things influenced the bonus award? Sensible things or not so sensible things? Did they tie the bonus to things that the company wanted or not?

They tied the bonus to "being a top performer":

> Then tie the bonuses to some shadowy and illusory "peer review" system and watch the sparks fly.

But frankly any time bonuses are involved the risks shoot up exponentially. For instance sales are commonly highly bonus-based, and as a result at least in software they will promise any and everything to the client so they can close and get that sweet, sweet bonus, and let everyone else hold the bag when the client finds out there was only a very tenuous relationship between their promises and reality.

I worked at a company where promotion was not on the table. So I left. No matter how much work I did or how good I got, it would not get rewarded and people who wanted to get good and who I could learn from would also leave.

Rewarding people is hard. But you can't shirk from it unless you want people to leave.

Well, you can give non-alcoholic beer to the subject telling them it is a real thing. Or make them a cocktail, such as Mojito, just a virgin one. Or the opposite: give them a soda secretly spiced with vodka. The possibilities are endless. But the problem is: people usually are familiar with how being drunk feels (and 0.1% BAC is pretty drunk), so it's almost impossible to hide the fact from them. So I guess "placebo group" is only with relation to drugs, not to alcohol.
The problem with this comparison is that F1 cars have a lot more downforce (and therefore drag) than FE cars, which means that F1 cars have a relatively low top speed.

Add to this the fact that race distance is a lot shorter in FE and that they race in street circuits where time with full throttle is low and brake regen is high and suddenly Formula e is not very impressive.

The event horizon does not expand until it consumes the neutron star, because the Schwarzchild radius is smaller than the radius of the neutron star. The neutron star collapses into the smaller black hole.

The matter cannot be considered neutrons anymore at that point, because it is too dense. Once neutron degeneracy pressure is overcome, they’re not individual neutrons anymore.

Once the black hole forms, the original matter never comes out again, even if it loses mass to Hawking radiation. The neutron star never comes back into view.
That would be it. People would flood them.
