I'm reminded of an oldie-but-goodie paper on Bazaar-style development efforts vs. hierarchically organized humans writing code that might interest folks hitting this page[0].

tl;dr: Bazaar efforts tend to develop loosely coupled or decoupled architectures, and hierarchical organizations tend to produce architectures with centralized API backends or messaging structures - neither architecture is "better" in an absolute sense, but each is "better aligned" in a Conway's Law sense with the human structures involved. Big sweeping generalizations, obviously, and the project you're working on is obviously the exception, but it can be a fun read if you're into large scale software development efforts.

Nvidia Agrees to Pay $5.5M to Settle SEC Probe over Cryptomining Disclosure

Frying an egg is a common test to check whether your pan is non stick or needs seasoning.

You may want to avoid vegetables that lose a lot of water as that will wear your non-stickiness faster.

Nothing than rubbing some oil and putting in the oven won't solve.
There will always be self righteous gatekeepers.

This is the inevitable result of centralized control.
I would just like to say how much I appreciate the whole No-ICE-Construction-Vehicles thing as an Oslo parent who has to squeeze by a long-term waterworks project site every morning and afternoon for daycare dropoff. There's only a narrow pedestrian passage to get around the dig site.

The backhoes, augers -- even the dumptrucks -- are all full electric (!). It's a small, older street with narrow pedestrian detours on either side, but the noise levels are so low I can continue speaking at normal volume to my kids the whole way.
An encyclopedia is by definition curated and controlled. The brilliance of the Internet and open content licensing is that you can fork Wikipedia if you don’t like their editorial choices. This wasn’t possible with a thirty-volume print edition of Britannica.

Of course if you want to make people look to your version instead of the one at wikipedia.org, you probably need to invest in marketing. In theory nothing stops you from becoming the new source of authority — after all Wikipedia has only held this role for less than twenty years, and nobody remembers what was the #1 result site for these search queries then.
That’s because it’s an atom-type CPU core, and not a good one (the good ones are called “Atom”). A laptop with this CPU basically is using the “efficiency core” from a recent laptop but as its main core.

There are plenty of Core-class x86 ChromeOS laptops and these smoke all ARM-based laptops excepting Apple’s.
> Not if it was literally covered up systemically at each warehouse where the issues lie?

So, you think that they managed to systemically cover up their misdeeds from higher management before the election, but conveniently failed to continue that coverup after the union election.

I mean, sure, you concoct a strained narrative which makes this a noble move by Amazon’s higher management, but...why strain to do that?
Relative to the company, yes
There are a lot of issues around notability, not least of all the availability of third party sources which varies by a ton of things including pre-and post- internet notability. But also the nature of their or its notability. On the one hand, you likely have articles on fairly minor actors and pro athletes and you probably don't have articles on many tenured professors at major universities even though they're pretty much by definition notable in their fields--but there may not have been much written about them as a person.
How does this look? https://github.com/1Marc/todomvc-vanillajs-2022/commit/d38e5...
I'm kinda wondering about future. I can well imagine that some current minor minister of a country is notable enough for now, but what about 10 or 20 years in future? Will their articles just end up deleted? Even if they were perfectly good and factual?
It’s not a technical term, so it’s always going to be somewhat of a matter of opinion. If I had to guess, you could only really be described as a veteran at some company if you had been there longer than most other employees. It seems like at least 60 or 70% of the employees should be newer.
I love Joplin but the Android app really needs an update. It's missing a lot of important features that are available on desktop.

...but then why wouldn't the bodyguards just expropriate even greater quantities of that wealth than the wealthy would bestow on them?

Somehow, they have to first be convinced that the wealthy has some sort of moral right to their possessions. In other words, they have to play along in the game of wealth distribution.
Yes - all local, no 'cloud' at all.
Yes.

Extracting simplicity from complexity is hard, and that is why most systems are unnecessarily complex. And I mean: 'unnecessarily' in that there exists simpler systems that perform the same function with less complexity.

I'm late-stage career here, so I've seen (most of) it all. There seems to be additional complexity piled on 'just because' so often. Occasionally, I see a system and I can't think of a simpler way to do it. That's rare. I bet it's rare for you, too.
> The collective has entire power over what you do.

No, they don't control you, but they can influence you, just as you can influence them and their choices.

Climate change isn't solved by individual decisions because the worst of it isn't the result of an individuals choice. Corporations are primarily responsible and as individuals we are largely powerless to change their practices. That doesn't mean we can't make personal choices that reduce the harms we cause, it's just not going to solve the problem.

I have yet to visit France, but I doubt everyone there would share your view that living with people of another ethnicity is unthinkable or would by necessity result in rape. That doesn't mean you shouldn't make sensible decisions to protect your safety. If your train stations are unsafe, don't feel bad about driving a car, but you should probably be pushing for improvements to the security of your public transportation. Make choices that are good for the environment where you can. Our circumstances may limit our choices, but if we're doing our best that's all anyone can ask.
Having a working DNS cofiguation is generally a prerequisite to sending email.

There is of course email smtpd software that allows receiving email using only IP addresses. Email predates DNS. Two people running their own smptd's could exchange email directly using only IP addresses, without the need for DNS. But the way most people use email today, delegating total control over it to third parties, email is highly dependent on DNS.
I think there are potential concrete definitions, but people disagree on which (if any) are correct

It's saved me loads of time, usually in crisis moments when there's no time to spend on debugging the production service because things have to work again.
Also, in what universe are those expensive multi-blade razors faster or more convenient than a safety razor with a Feather blade?
I might give it a go thanks.

I just love Notable due to it's simplicity and performance. The UI looks just right, every note can have it's own tab, there are no themes for now (apart from light and dark one), but they are nice and contrasty, the keyboard shortcuts are just right, the app is fast and responsive. I don't need anything more. Fabio (the author) knows whats he's doing and I like that he respects his users. Obsidian is more like: lets throw everything we can think of in, damned the performance, UI, or usability. The only good thing I can say is that I've managed to get both of them to play well together in iCloud Drive (or any "cloud" drive would be fine). So on my computers I use Notable, and on mobile devices I have Obsidian to edit the same notes.
It's the exact same codebase.

Wow, self planting trees, that's brilliant! Exponential growth!
One problem with mathematical articles on Wikipedia is that there’s no DAG structure to follow. You often end up running in circles trying to understand related concepts. For many mathematical definitions/objects/theorems there’s also a lack of motivation or rationale given. Why do we have that concept/theorem? How/where is it being used in practice?
What? How would you cook the food without heat? How would you grow and harvest the food without Electricity. Sure it could be done in limited amounts, but to feed the worlds population without electricity, its not possible.

Even if you someone magically found a way to harvest all the food by hand, How would you distribute to everyone? Without electricity our highly efficient distributions systems don't work.

I could make a plan to launch myself into outer space. Doesn't mean my plan will work. It also doesn't mean that the people that my plan will inconvenience are just okay with it.

Sorry neighbors I need to build a launch tower here I'm taking over your backyards, you can have them back in a few years its okay, its part of the plan.
It's not a waste of time. Sometimes the pan will get sticky. Coating it with oil and putting it in the oven at high temperature will make it as good as new.

> Gillette claim that each blade can be used for 15 shaves

I don't get this at all. I use the cheapest disposable razors (a bag of Bics), and can get 200 shaves out of one. Maybe because I shave at the end of a hot shower when my stubble is soft?

I don't need a razor that looks like it is a Star Wars prop, either.
This is a famous case. I can almost understand why they got rid of the extended synopsis. For anyone who wants to read it, here's a copy on Reddit:

And yet countries the world over turfed the one protection against the race to the bottom, which are tariffs. The auto industry still exists in North America because tariffs are still in place. Any time there's a significant economic imbalance of incentives, only tariffs will 'level' out the desire to offshore.

Unions may have been presented as the scapegoat and clearly they made raw profitability worse (by what margin is certainly open for debate), the large reason that blue collar wages have been deteriorating in real dollars since the 80s can largely be attributed to globalization and the elimination of tariffs. Argue about the net benefits to the world, maybe. But your loss of dollars probably wasn't the union bugaboo but globalization.
Don't get me wrong. The Jones Act is terrible.

It has nothing to do with 'Labor Costs'.

Jones Act is used very liberally in lawsuits to protect ship owners against worker injury.

Dredging is not a bottleneck. Money is.
You can't throw a bigger dredge at the problem. Dredges rotate between contracts. Some cities might need deeper channels other might want a wider beach.

Sand shifts on the sea floor. It is highly unpredictable.
Mother nature will put sand where she wants.

Most people have no idea how abrasive sand is. Imagine sandblasting the inside of your dredge pump while its running.

That is what happens. The thing is most dredge pumps have an impeller casing of 8 foot diameter. It is a huge pump on the scale of hydroelectric pumps. But it pumps a slurry of sand.
Very maintenance intensive even with hardfacing interior surfaces..

>Relying parties (aka online services using FIDO protocols) have a lot of freedom to define exactly how restrictive they want to be by making choices about which devices they accept.

This, in my view, is the problem with FIDO.

They shouldn't be able to make that choice.
My example was only that - an example. There's nothing to say that the ship builders need to come from Spain. Additionally, pay is only one aspect. It's possible that it's easier to hire globally, than to train domestically during these times.

Lots of ways to do logging. Create a circular buffer of tags and values at critical points - takes just a couple machine cycles to add an entry. When the problem occurs (break in the debugger) the table records the last N significant actions.
Mobile phones could be open systems like PCs are. But they aren't. So we should oppose this movement to use phones for everything until the situation changes.

Not to mention that old people is suffering (at least here in Spain) a lot because services push everyone into apps etc.

I cancelled my fathers bank account for this very reason and moved him to a credit union. It was painful but their customer support was so awful that it was worth it.

The last straw was that they told him he couldn't do a money transfer from his local office but he had to use a mobile app. He called me to help him with that. That got me angry.
> Ask yourself this: As great as smartphones are, do you want a future where everyone is required to purchase one, an a cell plan to exist in society, to engage in commerce, enjoy shelter, health care and security?

I’d be fine with this, so long as there’s a safety net of some sort to provide cheap/used phones to anyone who now needs one. Computers make lots of things easier, and forcing every business to accommodate the additional complexity of non-electronic access sounds like a bad idea.

That said, I do agree that something should be done about “use this app to open your apartment door” and “use this app to do your laundry”. I think the emphasis should be on interoperability. So you as a business can’t require the use of a specific piece of software, but you can specify a protocol, preferably one that’s already in use.

As for “my phone lost charge at 3am and I got locked out”. I see this as equivalent to “I lost my keys at 3am and got locked out”; unfortunate, but ultimately either your fault or bad luck. Time to call a locksmith (or digital equivalent, a hacker?).

The unfortunate reality is a lot of people post comments like GP but do so reflexively to deride non-US governments then play defense for posts critical of the US. Some do it for China, and so on. It would help in general if people are reasonably (emphasis on reasonably) skeptical of all states.

I have all those accessories too but don't have an appreciation for the self pampering. Suppose I could drop by a barbershop for that.
Well, you're extrapolating from one example where the standard library doesn't behave as you want, and characterizing the entire library as 'lazy'. I don't agree with that characterization, and as I already said, the justification has been given. You just don't agree with it, that's fine. It's still a valid justification.
Last time I looked NewRelic's PHP experience wasn't quite there. Blackfire has been advertising an APM for ages but when I checked in April it still wasn't released to everyone.

The one which never seems to appear on Google when people go looking for one is https://tideways.com/. I've used it multiple times with clients and it finds the problems in minutes.

Another up-and-coming PHP profiler is from DataDog. Again, not a dedicated PHP tool like Tideways so I found the experience lost out a bit (plus the per-server pricing didn't work for us with multiple machines in a HA setup)
All of the arguments against it are completely non-serious. I don't think there are many real AI researchers that disagree with the thesis that it is in principle possible to build a machine as intelligent as a human. There is broad disagreement on how close we are to it, or whether or not the current track that ML research is on is sufficient to get us there.
First off, it's now a redirect https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rosemont_Seneca...

Second, the article links to the archived comments about the deletion (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_delet...), wherein an editor explains

> This organization is only mentioned in connection with its famous founders, Hunter Biden and Christopher Heinz, from whom it cannot inherit notability per WP:NORG. Every single source is a trivial mention in an article about the founders; that means it fails WP:GNG as well. Keeping it around additionally risks WP:BLPVIO, as this is a magnet for conspiracy theories about Hunter Biden.

Seems pretty clear cut to me. Write the parts that deserve to be in the Hunter Biden page in the Hunter Biden page. Don't make a stub article just so you can mention an otherwise unnotable company.

We have evidence that communalism (or at least something similar to it) has worked at large scales in the past. In fact, it ought to be one of the easiest things to get to work, because you don't have to coerce anyone of anything.
If they were eco-conscious they wouldn't travel in first place. Anyone who travels to fight against climate change is a hypocritical liar. I expect them to absolutely minimize their footprint. That is no heated conferences, just single loudspeaker with regular phone call to present their ideas, outside. Anything more is just pure destroying of the planet.
Not true. Depending on your OS (sorry Windows users) your OS isn't collecting your personal data at every opportunity, and hopefully doesn't allow 3rd parties to push code to your devices without notice to you about what's been changed, and without any option for you to opt out of those changes.

You must have zero trust in a device where 3rd parties have full access to change whatever they want at any time and for any reason without your knowledge or consent. That's not happening for the linux server in my closet. It's probably happening for the windows 10 system in the living room, and it's absolutely the case for the phone next to me.

‘Enforced childbirth is slavery’: Margaret Atwood on the right to abortion
> The USA has a rather distorted health care and medicine system, in that it's viewed here as a profit center, not as a basic societal necessity. In contrast, police and judicial services are not really viewed as an investment opportunity (let's skip private prisons), just a basic necessity.

The profit center vs societal necessity way of looking at these things is super interesting and definitely new to me (at least in such a concise form). In this framing, I'm not sure I want healthcare to move, since everything I can think of on the societal necessity side of the spectrum is slow moving and underfunded. Police departments tend to be underfunded and slow to adopt new technology (though maybe that's a feature), while hospital facilities and medical treatments seem to advance quickly to adapt to new discoveries/tech despite insane FDA regulations as a barrier.

If we flipped a switch and made law enforcement a profit center, what would that look like? I'll go first, but I sincerely want to hear your take, as I'm sure I'm missing something. I assume they still have to enforce local/state/federal laws, but they will somehow be subject to the same tug of war over tech/efficiency advances and regulations around safety/civil rights. I hope we pay them directly/willingly, rather than them simply making bank on speeding/redlight cameras or parking tickets. Maybe we have to pay some kind of crime insurance, where rates (i.e. risk) changes depending on crime stats in the area defined by the insurance companies, which could incentivize the police to meaningfully reduce crime. Insurance would pay out when crimes are solved, and any attempts to fudge the numbers by the police would be insurance fraud. Sounds wild.
I’d start answering this question by asking “why do you want to leave heroku”.

If as you’re stating, the recent security issues are the main reason, I am pretty sure you’re not going to find a better solution by switching. Any vendor or internal ops team is going to have vulnerabilities. Thinking security issues are limited to Heroku is not logical.

However you might object to the way they handled the security issues. I totally agree with that being a good reason, not because of this specific incident, but because in my opinion, this is a sign of bigger issues at heroku. In short Heroku has been stale from a product point of view and has lost a lot of good talent to deal with product and operational needs they have.

To me, replacing one PaaS with another is not a good idea. All PaaS providers suffer from the same fundamental issues of rigidity (you work around their limitations and not the other way around), price (they can’t transfer commoditisation of the cloud to their customers), and vendor risk (single vendor that can be bought and shut down by the buyer - remember AppFog or Tutum? - or at least lock you in)

Doing it yourself is also not a very wise choice for a lot of people: you either need a devops and SRE team or you’re left copy pasting scripts from across the internet to build and configure your servers.

Alternatively you’re pressed to learn a new tech (kubernetes, dokku, et al) and spend your time on that instead of your app.

I’m a proponent of a middle ground: vendors that take care of devops for you, the way your team would have done so, without the inhibitive costs. Consultancies are one option but they can build something for you at a cost and then you’re left with either keeping them around to maintain it to stuck with a tech stack you can’t manipulate yourself.

Companies like Cloud 66 or any other ones that build and maintain a PaaS like experience on your own servers without their own complex magic are the best ones out there in my opinion.

I’m biased towards Cloud 66 as a founder, but we built it not to build another PaaS, but to try to address the actual question of why everyone starts with heroku and no one seems to stay on it for long.
Thus site really helps to establish one's position on deleteionist vs inclusioninst debate.

Internet arguments often choose the example of deleted articles to illustrate their point, so one cannot get overall "feel" of the quality of delete pages. But hitting "Random Page" link on that website shows a nice, unbiased random sample.
