Again, only talking about my own experience - I'm a programmer myself and I don't crunch, and no one in any other team that I know does. Programmers also tend to be most well compensated out of everyone(in my experience).
Cost plus isn't used just at NASA. It's even more evil in other arenas, like electricity in California. Our regulators allow for a fixed profit margin for opex and a higher fixed profit margin for capex. This has the twin effects of running things to failure (and igniting the state) in order to avoid opex and instead claim capex, and also motivating as-high-as-possible costs for everything. No competitive bids are possible.
I have not seen a GUI tool of this sort that is substantially safer than a command line tool. If you're letting users do things like deleting or altering production data with any kind of ad-hoc tool, you've got a bigger issue than what the specific tool is.
I feel like PHP was the first big blow to Perl's king-of-the-web status. Python and especially Ruby+Rails knocked Perl off many people's radars for good.
Thanks for your work on Firecracker. One big remaining hurdle is for virtualization to be enabled by default on users' systems. WHP is fortunately easy to enable, but still an extra step that users probably won't understand the implications of. KVM seems more hit-or-miss. Some distros allow read/write to /dev/kvm by default. Others require jumping through udev hoops or similar. If virtualization is disabled in the BIOS/UEFI you have a much harder problem to solve.

Are there security implications to enabling this stuff by default, or do vendors disable it just out of habit? Do you think there's any chance of virtualization being enabled by default becoming the norm?
Incidentally, an elephant was used in their first big Hadoop book (and I would find it hard to believe that was coincidence): https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/hadoop-the-definitive/9.... There's a Hadoop-the-elephant logo that's trademarked by Apache, but elephant puns and even other drawings of yellow elephants abound in that community, and I'm not sure that's the kind of thing that trademark law could be enforced against even if the ASF wanted to.

Consistently Meets Expectations, one step up from "you are probably going to get fired" (needs improvement)
No they didn't. November 2021 was not that long ago.

"You may be a Class Member if you are a United States resident and you connected a financial account to an app between January 1, 2013 and November 19, 2021....

In speaking with a biologically female friend, she commented how she knows many men who are upset by the draft, always vote on the "right" side of issues, etc., but none cried with her hearing about this draft. The author's being a straight, white male could potentially also lead him into dismissing justices or clerks too quickly.

>Justices under­stand that they don’t always end up in the majority. Clerks rely on these jobs as a calling card for the rest of their careers. To be exposed as a leaker would amount to setting that future career on fire. It’s not worth the risk.

To Matthew Broderick, certainly, this risk isn't worth it. To a woman or minority who is genuinely afraid of the consequences for either themselves or can immediately put themselves in the shoes of those who it could harm? I don't know. Maybe it is worth it if they think that public outcry could sway a justice, particularly one who has previously and recently talked about it being settled precedent even if it may come at the cost of her career.
> Part of this is due to the increased career-orientation of higher education.

Maybe the main part of this is because companies will fire older and more expensive employees to hire cheaper junior ones. Cost cutting all the time.

The quickest way to increase your salary is to change jobs.
Yeah, the whole system has been fantastic. I'm so glad I did it. DIYing it was also fun.
Indeed, when the fine is less then the profit, then its a kickback.
To elaborate on what CUViper said,

const functions are really 'maybe const' functions since they can be called with runtime arguments or compile time arguments.

If you want your const function to depend on some trait, for it to even be possible at compile time, those traits would need to be possible to use at compile time too.

But the same idea holds as arguments, we might just want to use it at runtime too, in which case it needs to be a 'maybe const' bound for the const function to be flexible enough for us.
The printing cost for a 200 or so page 6"x9" softcover in Kindle Direct Publishing with color cover and B&W interior is about $4. So if you sell it for $10, you collect about 50%.

However, in my case, I give away an eBook. The book is mostly on Amazon so physical books can be ordered for a book signing at an event. I have it priced just a bit above cost.

One key with editing is that you need someone willing to put in the time to do a careful job. In my experience, asking a co-worker tends not to work well. About the only time I get carefully edited (mostly copyediting) is when I'm actually working with an editor.
Roberts doesn't need political capital. His job is for life. And he's the final say: there is no appeal. (In theory the Congress can pass laws, but the bar to passing laws is so high as to be basically impossible.)

The Supreme Court doesn't need credibility. You don't need to respect them. You just need to obey them. We haven't yet reached the point where the President starts ignoring orders from the Supreme Court.

They lost my respect a long time ago. There may be something they care about less than that, but I'm unable to guess what it might be.
Depending on one's skillset, you could use a dcc tool like Blender + three.js to make creation of these visuals and interactions much simpler. Have a look at gltfjsx + react-three-fiber [1] combination, which themselves are abstractions over vanilla three.js.

With that said, the raw webGL approach here is arguably more educational, so goal achieved I think!

No. I have three kids, one just started high school, and they are established socially. I'd save a ton of money leaving California, but I can't put a price on the impact to my kids.

I'm out of here as soon as the kids are out of the nest, though.
Plaid used oauth for Bank of America circa 2019 when I tried, and currently uses Capital One's oauth when I try to log into it. I'm sure they use it when it's convenience (or maybe when the financial institution mandates it).
Exactly! It's like designing a language making Hello World! programs trivial to create but makes the actual programs we write a little more difficult to create and doesn't solve the actual problems experienced by day-to-day developers. Not useful.
I'm always happy to see English-language resources about obscure (inside of the anglosphere) PCs. Our retro PC scene is fun and weird and full of rabbit holes as is, and I love these little tastes of other parallel retrocomputing scenes.

FAANG's body-mass index has reached such levels that they aren't mobile anymore. I'd expect some real innovation in robotics & ML: it'll start in the war industry, as there's a strong demand for semi-intelligent autonomous drones immune to traditional weaponry, and then will slowly progress to the civilian markets in 50 years or so.
C and C++ are at diametric opposite ends of the scale of value proposition. Listing them side by side eliminates any credibility your argument might have had.

Hare's "value proposition" of simplicity is, simply, a shuck. Any software effort has essential complexity that your language may help you manage, or chuck you in the deep water to sink or swim. Hare does the latter, and is even self-righteous about it.
One of these years I may have to do a second edition. I thought at the time that Chrome's user agent string was peak insanity, but I really should have known better. As you pointed out, things have only gotten worse since.

> I believe it’s much more likely that the leaker is someone who supports the opinion rather than an oppo­nent

> If [the majority bloc in favor of the opinion has held together], there’s no reason for a supporter or an opponent to leak an old draft now.

I don't find the reasoning behind this convincing at all. It would make for a good plot twist in a book, but in my opinion the leaker was most likely an opponent wanting to spark national outrage ahead of the final ruling, in an effort to either pressure judges if the outcome can still be changed, or as an act of vengeance against the court in retaliation for a ruling they feel extremely strongly about.
From Google: Intuit has over $3B cash on hand. Market cap is 1000x the fine.
I was talking last week with a friend working for Google and worked at Facebook before. The overhead to show that you are worthy for promotion is ridiculous. But he was giving for granted that was part of the "game."

I was never interested in climbing the corporate ladder and prefer to impact the users but I found that unfortunately trying to avoid wasting time in this overhead is eventually working again the users because who prefer spending time improving the product does not get promoted.
Have you seen how wide the bands can be (especially when factoring in appreciation)?

Some L4s can make more than L6s.

What is bonkers is that you can care about levels so much - but pay is wildly disconnected.

What's the point behind putting all this effort into it when at the end of the day it means almost nothing?
On the flip side - many are speculating a conservative justice (edit: or staffer) leaked it in an attempt to effectively cement the decision in place before it could be watered down.
Ask HN: How do you find customers? And how do you find their pain points?
I would like to start my own business but if history is anything to show, I'm pretty terrible at it. I've built product after product and none of them have ever gained any traction. At some point I realized that I'm looking for solutions to problems that don't exist instead of trying to build solutions for actual problems.

I'm now at a point where I realize I'm never going to get anywhere with this if I don't start talking to potential customers first. But I don't know how to find potential customers, because I don't even know what kind of business I'm trying to build. I just want to build something, anything.

So, successful software business folks out there, what do you do? Do you cold call random businesses in your area and ask what type of software they use and what are their pain points? Do you schedule time with these business owners to try and find out what could possibly help their business? Do you do this without the slightest clue of what you want to build?

Disagree from experience. I find it far more likely that they considered how to skew the p-values low enough to where they become significant. “Personal pleasure” & “Empathetic feelings” do NOT sound like terms which correlate to reproducibility to me.

Near certainty. Someone familiar with the typography of the Supreme Court would definitely also be aware of high visibility current events around it.
I've always thought that the best approach would be to embed some kind of steganographic identifier in the rendered text. Small variations in the spacing or even kerning.

The simplest way to get around that would be to retype the whole document, which is a bunch of friction. But to counter that, more invasively, the texts different people would get could be different themselves. Sentences subtly reordered, slight differences in word choice or spelling. Though that makes collaboration more difficult.

Less technical savvy but resourced organizations wouldn't face difficulty using those approaches. It could just be a bit that an IT admin toggles on the GSuite or MS Office admin panel.

I don't disagree. I don't think maintenance is a bad word. But I do think that there is a point beyond which "maintenance" cannot grow. If you're maintaining a system there is a breadth of experience you cannot get. Being a senior engineer at Google is not easy. But my point is that sre is still fully capable of supporting L7 and L8 ic swes, while "maintenance" isn't.
The only nitpick I'd have is that `impl Trait` doesn't necessarily imply a concrete type. Or rather it does, but in so far `Box<dyn Trait>` is also a concrete type :)

That means that you can have a function that returns `-> impl Trait` with a concrete implementation because it has a single return value, but if you add a second and don't want to create an enum for a simple version of static dispatch, you can change the returned values to be trait objects and the callers don't break.

If I was born 20 years before I was born I would be able to enroll in clock-making faculty in University of Technology I graduated. They discontinued this faculty, and the only remaining part was a course of precise mechanics I received..

This article is pure gold. It makes me thinking how much of know-how is already lost and how much can we find in some old book stores... I'd buy a book about clock making.

The balance wheel gets a small energy push through the escapement on each tick. The barrel's mainspring has enough force to just kickstart a stopped balance wheel. The balance wheel doesn't really need much "winding" - it's equivalent to the pendulum of a grandfather clock.

It's really fascinating seeing this mechanism alive, even in a simple mechanical kitchen timer with plastic gears. When wound up, the balance wheel starts to swing a little and quickly accelerates on each tick.
$2.5M of the $141M is for “admin fees” ಠ_ಠ
With IPv4 I have to worry about UPnP/PCP working and TURN/STUN/etc non-sense when it comes to peer-to-peer protocols. With IPv6 I only have to worry about about UPnP/PCP working. In my books that's an improvement.

If I want to self-host something, then with IPv4 I have publish my IP and worry about the CPE supporting port forwarding. With IPv6 I have publish my IP and use UPnP/PCP to allow all connections. Is there any CPE gear that does not support UPnP/PCP?
> Web3 happens when people can host stuff on their phones

This has essentially been the guiding principle of my side projects for the last two years. Folks shouldn't need to understand DNS, TLS, HTTPS, IP addresses, ports, NAT, CGNAT, etc in order to own their data. Self-hosting a small server for you and your friends shouldn't be any more difficult or less secure than installing an app on your phone.
At Google at least, if you stay low level for too long, you get fired. If your team is full of low level people maintaining a project that's stable, you need to invent work to justify your existence.
> There's also some evidence it's linked to cancer

Can concur as a bass player. Tell me to play (for example) a B and without even thinking, my hand will move to the second fret on the A string. Put a flat sign on it and I just move one fret down.

I also know the "shapes" of intervals though, and they are constant. A half-step is always one fret, a whole step is always two. A minor third is a minor third is a minor third: one finger on fret N of string M, the other finger on fret N-2 of string M+1; the names of the notes are irrelevant.

I'm late to the party but here's my list

- cadvisor - simple graphs of resource consumption, insights per docker stack

- cyberchef - a LOT of handy operations packed into one small app. Encode/decode any secrets you need and don't bother about privacy

- dozzle - logs browser from all docker stacks

- gogs - git mirror

- heimdall - all apps main panel

- minio - private S3 for my side projects

- nextcloud - private google drive / dropbox

- photoprism - photo management

- pypiserver - private pypi

- registry - docker registry (with UI)

- traefik - reverse proxy of all these services

- portainer - easily manage all of the above.

The coolest thing is that I don't even need to ssh into the instance (Synology NAS) to update / add / remove something. Literally everything can be achieved via portainer.example.com in this setup.

“Energy independence” just means that energy does not give other nations significant leverage over us.

Isolated self-sufficiency is one way to achieve that, but so is a balanced book of imports and production.

The U.S. today is more energy independent than in the past. To be specific, OPEC cannot do to the U.S. today what it did in the 1970s because they have far less pricing power. As they cut supply to raise prices, domestic fracking projects go back into the black and we increase supply.

I fully support transitioning to renewable energy sources, but it’s not necessary for energy independence. That is one of the least compelling reasons to change.
Haha, everyone asks, and no! We visited first in the summer, and then bought the house sight unseen and showed up in February. We lived in Alaska for awhile though, so I think we're good -- it takes a lot of winter to impress me after Fairbanks.

This already was available more than ten years ago, you simply had to install a module.
I found it too complex for a lay person. On a regular computer or server its not too bad. I can send someone a config file with the certs and keys already built in. That's easy enough. But on mobile it requires a back and forth exchange of keys over a different medium.

Compare that to ZeroTier where I can just tell someone, "install this app and punch in this Network ID". Also, ZT lets me control the entire network firewall from a centralized place. Where Nebula is doing it on a per-client basis and requires new certs if device groups change.

I don't want to talk up ZT too much though. Their self-hosted option is a joke. There is no webui. You have to do everything via the API...including the firewall rules; And you have to write those rules in the non-human readable format that their webui abstracts away. Worse still, their mobile apps won't work with the self-hosted option. I used them to get something up and running quickly, but I'll probably end up on Nebula anyways.
Of course, it is counterfactual. I was just trying to illustrate the point that payments would come in very handy for internet infrastructure.

There are a few clinical trials underway [1]

Before anyone gets any ideas, OTC this stuff is often mixed with acetaminophen which is can be very bad for the liver, and DMX itself may have adverse impacts on the kidneys. Don't go gulping this stuff down.

But if the trials pan out it would be incredible to have a rapid efficacy drug along the lines of ketamine that is safe enough that it's put in OTC meds. Ketamine unfortunately has both a stigma and lower safety profile.

I think the author is pushing for better code quality tooling in Julia instead of having people manually fix these problems.
