Not everything fits neatly into tribal politics, especially not tribal US politics specifically. Twitter, the internet, etc are all platforms that are open to places other than the States, I don't think it makes sense to link everything about its moderation to D vs. R politics.

I consider myself somewhat of a libertarian / "classical liberal". I'm therefore something of a "free speech absolutist", have no issue with gay characters, and hate the idea of banning books. Not everyone who thinks differently than you do about free speech fits into a neat little caricature.

Here's a great analysis for why Coinbase and other exchanges with similar legal structures pose a risk to customers should the exchange ever declare bankruptcy.

TLDR: In bankruptcy, it is likely to be treated as a debtor-creditor relationship, not a custodial (bailment) relationship.
Yeah, nothing about WAL mode which is what most users will want for web apps.

sqlite is accessed via a socket? defeats the whole purpose of using sqlite.

Many here are mentioning using one sqlite file per customer but that sounds like a nightmare for migrations and analytics.

SQLite is great and all these new services and articles are nice but intentionally shadowing lots of complexity.
We get to use Markdoc every day and it is a joy to work with.

Shameless plug: we're looking for someone to come in and a product manager over the Stripe Docs. Imagine working on docs at the company known for docs. Very fun problems.

And you're engaging in it by downplaying and denying the very real power that that transgender ideology holds in US institutions and corporations.
I routinely have keyboard + monitor + power :| I've done a lot of "unplug power to do something briefly" because of it. And tbh the vast majority of monitors-with-usb-hubs ports I've used have been one of: not worked at all, absurdly slow like <1Mb/s, or provide only like 0.5A of power shared across all ports. They're so, so bad.

I know good ones exist, but offices don't tend to buy those. And I don't really want to drop $1k on a new monitor. Thankfully this is a secondary device, for fixing stuff that breaks from the M1 migration.

A "dumping" period where your business gains marketshare and undercuts competitors to drive them under is an essential part of establishing monopoly power.
the code has been open since the beginning of the project, IIRC... back when it was announced first, to get it to build, you needed to build it locally...
You seem confused. If you want a transaction use a transaction. If you don't want a transaction don't use a transaction. If you need a transaction across services, that sounds like you've run across a microservice antipattern. Monolith/Microservice changes nothing here - you can have the same issue in a monolith where two different functions are managing transactions and now you want a single transaction.

Literally irrelevant.
My university had quarters, not semesters, but:

1. Derivatives

2. Integrals

3. Applications — function approximation; solids of rotation; vectors; etc.

4. Multivariate — partial derivatives, multiple integrals, etc.

Glancing at a nearby community college’s course catalog, they have similar split.
Wait if Coinbase users don't control their own wallets then how do they spend their bitcoins?
Absolutely! Looking at the success in hindsight is not data driven. Just because the most of the past YC unicorns have been in industry X, doesn't mean the next ones are going to be like that. This is even more pronounced when it comes to the year of the batch, which is already past. Unless he wants to suggest companies in batches of the years with even numbers achieve higher valuations.
Thanks, I love it already!

You know one time my computer was compromised I actually tried to clear the malware without reinstalling the OS. Like breaking out of a prison without outside help, just like sending commands trying to kill the virus beyond its capacity to hide itself, move around inside the computer, defend itself against my commands, extend and capture, all that.

Maybe it's possible.

The other thing is at a some point code transitions into medicine. A friend was describing codebases of like 15000 lines, that they had tumors. And they won't go away just like that, you have to try to contain them from spreading, help them become benign, it's more like medicine at that point. Like you can't sequence every cell, you can't debug completely, you can't clear all malware. Just like in the body there's germs going around, there's lots of cells whose DNA gets modified over time due to radiation, all kinds of shit going on and you can't just debug them one by one.
The dubious part isn't the 28+28 year copyright term for new works, but rather the part where they penalize a single organization (not named, but the criteria only includes Disney) by shortening only its copyright terms for existing works when everything else is grandfathered in. This is, arguably, a bill of attainder—punishment by legislative fiat without judicial process—which the Constitution specifically prohibits.
I wonder how we classify lot of things as "it's in the mind".

My life (eg. family) is already destroyed because of environment. Stress adds up to the damage.

Do not rule out: lyme and other diseases - it is hard to detect those and try bandaid treatments for symptoms. Mold issues in the home/work/car - again this is sickening.

When you have a weak immune systems, you get affected with some of the daemonic disease, and then EMF, stress etc. wreaks havoc on your body.

Yes, you can CONTROL stress and EMF exposures - and reduce the impact on your body.
Only if you allow districts to exist that refuse to adapt anti-slapp laws. There is a solution to this problem, we've just failed to adopt it.

Edit: Just to clarify - I'm not advocating for removing state autonomy when it comes to legal legislation - but I am advocating for adopting some national anti-slapp rules.

Not really. You need to intercept an ILS beacon and not all airfields have them and you still need to find the intercept.

> the word "toxic". Which I agree is overused

I found it refreshing (and surprising!) to see the word here used in a way that referred to near-universal experiences.
I will point out, as an open source maintainer: someone giving you code "free of charge" is the same thing as them giving you a free puppy: everybody loves puppies, but they are absolutely not free to maintain.

This isn't meant to imply that Meta is, in this instance, offloading costs onto the community. But it's a tried-and-true tradition.
Cars are a great example when you compare just about any used car to being able to finance a new $15K econobox - the econobox will win on TCO. (And at low interest rates, you are better off holding on to your cash and financing). But not when comparing new cars. A $16K Chevrolet Spark LS has a five-year TCO of $26460. Your Camry Hybrid LE (at least twice as much as a Spark in cash outlay) has a five-year TCO of $31903. The Corolla L, which is a sort of benchmark of frugality, has a five-year TCO of $28814.
I've played a bit of the new MSFS and flying the big jet (737?) is a completely different beast than flying the Cessna. There's so much automation that if you don't know what you're doing you can't even descend to land the plane (because it thinks you want to cruise and will fight you all the way down).
Politely end the interview immediately. Really.

I had an in person interview with multiple people at a company and the CTO came in for his part and immediately started telling me how he wasn't supposed to be there he was supposed to be on vacation and he had a flight to catch so let's get this over with. I immediately said "Thanks for your time, please let everyone else know I appreciate talking with them and enjoyed our conversations. I'm not comfortable working at a place that treats candidates this way." and I stood up and left.
Exactly. What actually makes it more difficult for "BIPOC" and other acronym people is the trivialization they get subjected to by acronymizing their identity and grouping it in a "catchy" word by mainly white people who want to grab the lowest hanging fruit to make sure everyone knows that they're "not those other bad white people".
OK imagine that you have two different modules that manage transactions to a database. Now suddenly you need there to be consistent mutations between those functions.

Do you see my point? Microservices do nothing here - you have run into antipatterns that are universal, and that microservice architecture addresses explicitly as an antipattern.
Facebook built this, with engineers that they were paying a salary to. It’s 100% industry-funded.
I'm not seeing any concrete reasons for why I would want to install this plugin.

The Internet doesn't require a passport. I can already "Make any transaction on the internet safely" with PayPal. Etc and soforth.

For me to install it I would need to see some examples of things I can't do now, or at least sites that I can use Vessel on in a way that enhances the experience.

To me, toxic implies something that's bad for you but in insidious ways. That means it's slow and subtle, you wouldn't even believe it, at first you'd think this is great, these people are happy, this job looks great, but years later, you've got memory loss, needed to take physical disability, and the whole team quit... What the hell?

I feel it perfectly describes toxicity. What can cause such a thing? What's the root cause? It seems there are certain things about the human psyche we've yet to understand that somehow can be very damaging to it.

It means that if say there's a person whose the perpetrator, they might not even realize. If a manager causes the environment to make people feel crappy, they might not understand how, why, even if that's not their intent.

Malice can be toxic too, but malice describes the intent, someone could purposefully make the environment toxic, still toxic, but the intent was malicious. I find toxicity describes the environment, it's not because no one was purposely poisoning the well that it can't still be toxic.

Now if people are being abusive, psychologically or physically, in obvious ways, I would just call that an abusive workplace.

That's just the way I interpret those words.

Now if you're simply trying to say we should prioritize our efforts first to workplaces that are really bad in obvious and extreme ways, downright abusive, I wouldn't disagree, but is this really detracting?

That's why I said, if you know of worse offenders, bring them up, don't just deny this particular offense. I know that labor in other countries is much worse, but I can't as easily enact changes in other countries. I know that some jobs treat employees really poorly and pays terribly, and I'm not okay with that and support labor rights, higher wages, and would love to see more paid leave, shorter hours, better safety protocols. Simultaneously I happen to work in tech, so I'm also interested in seeing those jobs improve, they have different kind of issues that seem more insidious, they're also worth talking about in my opinion.

I would agree with you if somehow tech worker complaints was drowning out the voices of other workers who have more obvious abuses going on. I just don't think that's the case.
> is just disingenuous

I strongly disagree. And Jefferson was not talking about ochlocracy, which is itself tyrannical. You think the Founders were unaware of commerce and business during their era? Why did they then intentionally limit government with the Bill of Rights, and not also have it restrict business and private citizens? Because doing so would create less freedom and less security.

Look at the text of the Amendment:

Congress shall make no law... prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech

So you see, we don't need to extend the First Amendment to restrict corporations or private citizens, because they do not and can not make laws. Only Congress can make laws. What we have is a non-sequitor. The First Amendment, logically and rationally, can not possibly apply to companies like Twitter.

So if you do want to limit corporations with Free Speech, you can so so, that is what the Tenth Amendment is for.

Please stop assaulting the Bill of Rights with not very well thought out and fundamentally self-entitled and capricious whims. Only 2/3rd majority of Congress or of the state legislatures can change the Constitution. It is set as a high standard intentionally. Try to understand why. Because it's not about you and what you want, it is about the interests of everyone altogether and not everyone shares your shallow opinions. The Founders certainly didn't.
I am glad to know there are those that put so much thought into documentation. Documentations is just another service, and deserves all the same methodology: CI/CD, automatic tests, components and reuse, different environments etc.

As far as I can see, you can get similar workflow with combination of existing tools. I created this docker image that combines them for very easy consumption and created thousands of pages of technical, functional and user documentation with it:

I'm certainly no expert but the two methods I know about are spaced repetition [0] and mnemonic devices ([1]?).

The basic idea of spaced repetition is that we tend to forget things on an exponential curve with some exponent. As the item is re-enforced in our memory, the exponent gets smaller so that we remember it longer.

Many flash card systems use some type of spaced repetition [2], using information on what item you got wrong to adjust the estimated exponent. For practical purposes, this means reminding yourself of an item you just learned in the next minutes, hours and days will help re-enforce it and then reminding yourself in the coming days, weeks and months to help keep it.

The basic idea behind mnemonic devices, as I understand it, is that we are predisposed to remember experiences rather than facts, so turning facts into experiences helps with recall. This is one tactic to help people recall large numbers of digits of Pi, say, by converting the digit sequence into an experience (walking through a house with each number representing an item, color, etc.). I've also heard this is why people with synethesia are better at recalling some types of information.

There are many articles about memory competitions and various methods to help prep for such competitions [3]. There's also a cottage industry of memory coaching [4].

North Face uses rayon, which is derived from bamboo, not oil and gas...

But it's not like the oil and gas industry hasn't been caught lying a billion times before.

(Note that their less premium offerings available at Target and Walmart might use fibers derived from oil and gas. Their premium stuff does not.)
This and side-loaded accessibility threads are making me rethink how stupid people are. Please read and try to understand before typing something on your keyboard that will make you look like a stupid.
I’m not sure the target audience would be into this. This is a browser extension, that as far as I can tell is closed source, that handles the most sensitive information. Who are they? Why should I trust you with the keys to my life? At a time when Apple, Microsoft, Google, Meta are talking about eliminating passwords…

If I knew anything about security (which I do), I would never trust a browser extension.
would it make sense to preprocess with a transformer style model to produce per document semantic vectors which can then be piped into LDA to find topic mixtures of those vectors?

Almost all of the major WebView implementations I can think of are open source:

• WKWebView (iOS, macOS): https://github.com/WebKit/webkit/blob/main/Source/WebKit/UIP...

• Android WebView: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/...

• Mozilla GeckoView: https://github.com/mozilla/gecko-dev/tree/master/mobile/andr...

• Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF): https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/cef/src/master/

The main ones that aren't open source are the Windows WebView and WebView2 components.
I haven't done this, but I've been thinking about it lately. Fly.IO has had some very interesting ideas on this if you want to use a relational database. There was an article about litestream that would allow you to replicate your SQLite database to an arbitrary number of nodes, which means that every application server would have a SQLite file sitting on it for read queries, and then you can capture write queries and forward them to a write leader and let that user continue talking to that server until it replicates across your application servers.

You can do basically the same idea with any relational database, have a write leader... somewhere and a bunch of read replicas that live close to the edge.

There's also what you would call cloud native data stores that purport to solve the same issue, but I don't know much about how they work because I much prefer working w/ relational databases and most of those are NoSQL. And I haven't had to actually solve the problem yet for work so I also haven't made any compromises yet in how I explore it.

Another interesting way to go might be CockroachDB. It's wire compatible w/ PostgreSQL and supposedly automatically clusters and shares data in the cluster. I don't know very much about it but it seems to be becoming more and more popular and many ORMs seem to have an adapter to support it. May also be worth looking into because if it works as advertised you can get an RBDMS that you can deploy to an arbitrary number of places and then configure to talk to one another and not have to worry about replicating the data or routing correctly to write leaders and all that.

And again, I'm technical, but I haven't solved these problems so consider the above to be a jumping off point and take nothing as gospel.

Isn't this the case for most interviews? You could simply Google in almost all scenarios. Also, you can fail a single interview and still pass assuming all other interviews go well.
If it was a reasonable explanation then it would be in the SEC disclosure. Except that you can get sued for misrepresenting what's in there. On the other hand you are mostly free to Tweet whatever garbage you want.
> what makes you say that? I use bitcoin to conduct private transactions regularly and its pretty darn solid for that purpose. Doing such a transaction over the internet, before bitcoin, required you to use permissioned rails.

Just because it can be used like that doesn't mean it actually succeeded. The vast majority of Bitcoin is held as a speculative investment, and the deflationary aspects are a strong disincentive to regular circulation.
The EU is honestly just so awful when it comes to anything relating to technology. The number of insane proposals I’ve seen from them over the years… It’s like they’ve got the worst political takes on tech from each EU country and smushed them together into a big ball of awfulness.
"Trust on first use" is not always less secure than using a CA.

With trust on first use, if you validate that the certificate matches the one you expect, then you're good as long as the server and your device are not compromised.

If you go the standard route and use a certificate authority, then a compromise (due to law enforcement or not) of the certificate authority will cause your device to silently trust a third party MITM certificate.

A lot of hidden implicit trafeoffs like this become apparent once you realize that your personal threat model is only loosely aligned with Google's.

Now that I think about it, you're right. The entry level in SF & Peninsula 10+ years ago was 120k (except startups). Entry level hasn't increased with cost of living so that 120k isn't the same as 10 years ago. Senior pay has increased a little at around 200k-300k. Depending on equity value that might be 300k-500k total comp.
