> You can't even do something as simple function chaining.

You make this sound like something got lazy about rather than something with major implications for the language semantics/runtime. Serious question: Would you prefer a) the current generics implementation, b) a runtime capable of code generation, c) generics cannot participate in interface implementation, d) some other option?
I use my calendar to block off my time for different activities and I use a separate reminders list for each day of the week for the things I need to do. All this is done on my iPhone.

This way is good because if I don’t manage to get to do something on the list I can just move it to the next appropriate day. At a glance I can see if there was anything I missed doing the day before.
Perceived Effectiveness of Flirtation Tactics
My go-to stack is Prometheus and Grafana with kube-prometheus-stack Helm chart for Kubernetes.

I'm sure I'm not configuring it well.

There are too many leaps I couldn't follow directly in how to make the config, and there's something about how arrays merge in YAML that makes it harder to write a config like this in Helm... so there is a lot of what I've written here that shouldn't need to be in my own config, because they are the standard default alerts, but I wound up having to include them to make my one extra alert join the rest (and this is my excuse for why it is several hundred lines long, when in reality it's mostly stock.)

This config goes so far as making alerts to Slack with Alertmanager that work out of the box!

One way to overcome that might be to use ansible to automate:

1. Dokku setup on a new server

2. Deploy your app from a git repository

3. Restore your database from backup

If you aren't comfortable with ansible you can use Fabric [0] or Sup [1]. I think there's even an ansible guide for Dokku deployment on their blog [2].

99.9% of Netflix content isn’t outrageous in any way. There’s a lot of attention for letting famous comedians do their usual routines in a recorded special, but we’re talking about less than 10 hours of television in a library of like 20,000 hours of Netflix originals.
I don't think anyone ever struggled with sum types (or at least, I hope not), they associated them with things like Haskell's monads, which are less commonly accessible (though they're undeserving of their reputation too). The hate was a little silly, but algebraic data types are clearly just an extension of the concepts everyone already knew.

But you can Google each issue and see endless reports of it being unresolved for years.

My computer, my decision. If I turn off auto updates, it should stay off. MS can have recommended and default settings, but removing the option for settings and removing the settings I selected are bad and anti-user.
In terms of raising money, which is a major concern for startups, yes, it's bad.
Not the parent but to me dokku shines when putting multiple apps on a single server and the fact that deploying is a git push. Letsencrypt and other plugins are icing on the cake.

If you have one app then dedicate a server to it and run it right on the operating system. Maybe have 2 and a load balancer so you can do prod deployments with no downtime. The point is get dokku, docker, and all that abstraction between the network card and your app out of the way.

Because ads on Google Search are among the least intrusive/offensive, and most frequently relevant, ads in the entire advertising space, and most people using it aren't bothered by it. It won't make relevant revenue; it will in some degree harm their real customers; it's a distraction serving no purpose.
The principle of charity is to make the strongest possible version you can imagine of the opposing argument, and I also struggle with constructing yours. It appears to be “no electric car buyer with $140k to spend could ever rationally choose anything other than a Tesla”.

If that’s your position, as a Tesla owner who has invested an awful lot of effort across this post in battling Someones Wrong On The Internet, I’m going to say there’s emotion at play, yes.

If it’s merely “a Mercedes isn’t a slam dunk choice, Tesla still has something to offer”, well yes, that is true.

Regardless, and after reflecting on everything you said, I do now think Tesla is quite like Apple here. Just as with the first few years of the iPhone, they created the market and had it essentially to themselves. They offer a limited set of choices and highly opinionated take-it-or-leave design with fixed high prices.

Now the other manufacturers are arriving, just as the array of Androids did, with a variety of models, price points and customisability.

Now will follow years of mutual incomprehensibility and internet arguing over why one set of trade-offs are objectively better than another.

> Matt Levine had a pretty different take, pointing out that if Elon Musk suddenly appears to be unwilling to buy Twitter, his financing might see that and - suddenly, but perfectly legitimately - evaporate, which would be a valid reason for Musk to walk away.

It's much easier to move to Canada. I'm a young American who just got Canadian citizenship simply by taking a job here via NAFTA, and am now no longer working while residing in Canada (with zero intention to seek employment). The equivalent TN visa if I had gone from Canada to US does not lead to citizenship - you're expected to leave the country and abandon the life you've built for yourself in your community if you want to leave your job or stop working. It's all about selling your free time to a boss, or getting out - the American way.

That's a very different question than your first question. This one is quite a bit more jingoist.

this goes in to the age old nationalist trope of "American jobs should belong to Americans" without considering that sometimes if the job goes to the better candidate, it can still be a net positive benefit.

End of the day, you're benefiting from their expertise in a field to improve tech, of which certain fields like computer graphics have a high showing in Canada, but also the taxes they're paying into the system.

Your argument also assumes that equally qualified and skilled Americans exist in the local market, that are untapped.

When you have the high priests of capitalism demanding old-school industrial policy and state planning and intervention, you know the economic model in place since the Reagan & Clinton years... may have jumped the shark:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-5US4J03Wo

I'd say we're in the mid-stages of what might be called an "economic crisis"; that doesn't necessarily mean riots in the streets and stocks plummeting to zero. But it means severe transformations that will displace the way things are done.

In most crisis it's usually the working classes who suffer first and most deeply. And that's been happening for some time; long prior to COVID, probably dating back to 2008. Once the upper and uppder middle classes start saying things like what you see above, you're already in the trenches and now shit's gonna get real.

Maybe.
I agree with all that, but still object to a thoughtless blanket norm of meeting attendance imposed by lazy managers rather than thoughtful consideration of the situation.
If they're incompressible (i.e. fundamental) particles though, then there's no inconsistency: any single electron can't compress itself into a black hole, because it's experienced gravitational attraction can't increase - it doesn't can't pull on itself because it has no internal structure.

Two electrons on the other hand can, because above some point when you push them close together the force between them rises above electrostatic repulsive and they'll pull their 0-size closer and closer until a singularity forms.

Of note, black holes on this scale aren't going to be stable though: they'll evaporate pretty much as fast as they form from Hawking radiation.

EDIT: Of note - at this sort of scale it's not entirely clear to me that whether an electron is a black hole is a meaningful question either. Black holes can have spin and charge, so an electron and an black hole masquerading as an electron would be superficially indistinguishable - it would weigh the same as an electron, and so electrostatic force would dominate all its interactions. This has been speculated: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole_electron though not observed at the moment. But the inconsistency isn't because it would not be sufficiently "electron-like".

Have you tried talking with your colleagues?

I mean… i know it’s hard. I’ve tried discussing patterns and our self-made “dialect”, and it’s a hard conversation. Using some 3rd party’s tooling makes it easier because you can all defer to the higher authority. But what if you actually agreed on some patterns and made that part of your process? To start with, it would feel like you were writing an overly prescriptive style guide and people would look at you funny… but what’s the difference between using using a 3rd party dialect and making up your own?

> parking on the pavement is the norm

It is, in some streets where I live. I've complained about it - it's against the law. Well, it's a law that apparently can be circumvented by local byelaws, and the Council's claim is that the residents have nowhere else to park.

Well, that's true; they don't. But then they shouldn't be buying/renting a home with no parking! The Council is an idiot; the left hand says there's too much traffic in this town, the right hand says that residents with no parking should be allowed to park on the footway. This Council is run by an executive committee, the only (purported) benefit of which is joined-up decision-making.

Size of domestic market used to be the theory in the 60s (it led to the formation of the EU), but isn't a popular explanation anymore because most large countries never ended up getting rich. Economic system used to be theory in the 90s, but also has fallen out of favour as countries that had "good systems" never really caught up (the UK has a very similar system in many ways, but doesn't have that final piece). It isn't really that simple. The US just appears to have everything at once. The closest is probably Australia or possibly Switzerland (both are significantly smaller than Canada).

Also, the US and Canada do not have the same level of wealth...the only country in the world that is close to the US in wealth is Switzerland and Australia (the latter is a bit unclear but is probably true once superannuation is included). Canada is definitely up there but is more similar to Europe than the US, again there is nowhere that really compares to the US.

"I’ve never seen a bug from someone overwriting a global variable like this, that is intended to be immutable."

It can cause headaches in test code (where developers try to override the package variable value for test cases, and forget to restore/change it back when done, etc., i.e. they engage in bad practices that I shouldn't have to catch in a PR). It can easily cause production applications to blow up unexpectedly when the variable is changed in a function and that mistake passes through all the tests and the PRs. This practice is one of the worst in the go community, in my opinion.

The first time I saw these package level globals in go code I cringed. It is an absolutely terrible design decision to not have package level immutables that aren't PODs.
