How do you handle the DSN for Sentry? Seems like that'd be difficult for a pypi distribution
We run hardware, our own physical servers, in a bunch of regions around the world. We have an API (and a CLI) that will take a Docker container (or a Dockerfile, or a bunch of other things), turn it into a VM, and it run it on that hardware. That VM is given a routable Anycast IP address, so your users will automatically tend to hit the closest instances of your app.

Hope that helps!
What's amazing is they were even able to determine race "even from corrupted, cropped, and noised medical images, often when clinical experts cannot" and after accounting for differences in body-mass index, disease distribution, and breast density.

I feel the profoundness of the study was lost on the authors. They said it's a warning not to create racist AI's. But the fact that human physiology varies among races, and that change is undetectable by people, is incredible. That could imply that certain groups of people are more responsive to certain treats--and AI could help detect which treatment works best for you.

Because the universe is full of "not a pinata"'s. If an attacker is blindfolded swinging their baseball bats hoping to hit one, its utterly futile on the attackers time spent on earth. They are infinitely better off working at wendy's on minimum wage.
I will add that I am willing to do some advanced image processing and 3D geometry to make this happen. I am unimpressed by projects I have seen so far, but it's not fair assessment because I don't know the field very well.
The giant caveat to what you are saying is that the nature of the 'broadcast' is not isolated to the individual - it's on a platform.

So - for 'web sites' - yes. That should apply. And it does: you can make your own 1-to-many site and say almost whatever you want.

Twitter is not that, there's much more going on.

In the public interest, it may be worthwhile to have maybe some regs around it, and the notion of 'banned for having an opinion' is not entirely unreasonable.
That said, most people on Twitter are not banned for that.

And of course are the statements: "The Election Was Stolen!" or "The Voting Machines Were Hacked By China" or "Vaccines Were Invented By Big Pharma To Control US" 'opinions'?

I would argue that AWS should have very little leeway in terms of who they can host or not - much like 'net neutrality' they should have 'service neutrality'.

Same for Email.

But for things that are truly social networks, they should have a fair bit of lattitude to set their own policies.

Finally you have the issues of distribution. App Store and Google Play have very difficult and problematic barriers to the content on apps. I had an app 'not pass muster' because someone in a bit of content was talking about whether or not a particular male celebrity was 'hot or not'. Ridiculous.

So, a final point might be to at minimum require 'objectivity' and 'transparency' to Social Network management, such that people are at least treated consistently according to a clear set of rules.

Twitter 'verification' is a giant 'black box' - that's just unfair.
How does this definition use "word"? In analytic languages, most words always appear in the same form, so counting them is relatively easy. But for inflected languages, does this require being able to distinguish the roots of words in order to count them accurately?

It's not just about the presence or absence of articles and prepositions, but about different declensions of the same word. If this analysis requires knowing that homo, hominis, hominem and homine all refer to the same word and should be counted as one, how does it help with analyzing a text for which we don't know the grammar?
You aren't wrong. That said:

- The terminal UI is pretty usable. More so with the aid of a few custom shell aliases/functions to speed things eg. `wt` for `task add +work $argv` to make it faster to add work tasks.

- It's so extensible that I've found it easy enough to, for example, build my own little Übersicht widget to display my 5 most urgent tasks along the top of my screen all the time.

StoicOS: Removing all the unproductive features from mac/windows/linux
I want to remove all the unproductive features from all the operating systems to free us all from unnecessary distractions, specifically:

1. Video playback
2. Social media
3. Videogames

I am looking for fellow devs and believers in content freedom, to help me out in this endeavour and release these patches asap.

Following is a Discord server to discuss on how to tackle the technical challenges: https://discord.gg/fTENHQHF58
Oh how I wish laptops had keyboards like that, mechanical or otherwise. Framework is doing great work democratizing higher end computing, had no idea they released their mainboards separately.

Really appreciated the build tour: https://github.com/brickbots/framedeck/blob/main/docs/build_...
In IT space most major ones do though.
gotta say I like the search thingy they put in there where you can just type what you want instead of digging through menus, especially for lesser used features.
I am very partial to open borders, but I concede there is not a practical solution yet. There is a book (I forgot the title at this time) of an economist where he "shows" (fwiw) how open borders could multiply the world productivity by a high factor, decreasing global inequality and other many positive effects. On the other hand there is the risk that an idyllic and safe community may be overrun but people who dont respect or adapt to the new environment.

For me a (still very theoretical) situation would be:

- People still keep their current nationalities

- Everyone has the right to a 3-month tourist visa to any country, no question asked, unless you are a fugitive o has been banned from leaving your country for some valid reason. You can return to the country if you want, 180 days after leaving it.

- If you get a job offer you have the right to a 1 year probationary working visa. You must stay for a least 6 months, but after that you can switch jobs if you want. If you are fired within the first 6 months, you still receive 6 month- 1 year permit to get a new job without having to leave the country. After the first year, you get a 2 year permit and after that you can get permanent residency if you want.

- If you commit any serious crime (say, having to serve +6 months) you are immediately deported and banned forever from that country,another of that offenses and you can't leave your country of origin.

- If you overstay your visa you must be also "punished" with some kind of temporary banning on your passport, heavier penalties for repeating offenders.

I know this is still very naive and crude, but we need to move towards a refined system in that style. The better we improve the big inequalities we have in the world the easier will be to implement it ( I know, I know).

For me it is very absurd how just because of a simple accident of where one was born it may be forbidden to visit or work in a good portion of this planet. I am optimistic in the very long term, future generations will see this situation as absurd as we see now things like serfdom,having to swear loyalty to God and King or the probably mythical prima noctis notion.
This is a pretty strong statement for a simple policy on a complicated set of issues.
Open borders are cosmopolitan but they also rely upon a very specific set of culturally rooted practices, laws, and civic institutions (unless we will have a global vote on these things?).
They are egalitarian for people across communities but they do nothing to address existing inequalities within communities. (One could also say that if we are going to be truly egalitarian we need to guarantee a basic set of economic benefits to all people).

This kind of policy prioritizes a certain set of rights for a certain set of people without troubling itself over the health and well being of existing communities and their right to exist (the widespread complaints about gentrification don't come out of nowhere).
I frequently see people say things to the tune of 'if you can't afford to live in a high cost of living area then move'. That's great advice if one place is as good as the next, but if you were born in said high COL area and your family is there then it is a pretty callous suggestion. Immigration is generally a good thing, but it also comes with costs and downsides. A sensible policy on immigration should take these concerns into account.
It's weird to be annoyed by the difference in instruction set because by default they do have the same instruction set, and neither support avx512. You have to go to great lengths to enable avx512 on the P cores and as he says only certain motherboards can do it. I'll admit it is a shame that neither core supports avx512 by default though. If he'd said he was upset the gracemont E cores didn't emulate avx512 in microcode then I'd agree completely.
And in today's world all data needs to be federated between national borders anyway. Try doing business in China if the user data isn't stored in China. Or Russia. Or the EU. Modern designs need the data layer to be forked between regions, not replicated, with merges between the forks.

On top of that, most replication systems are brittle and create logistical and administrative headaches. If you can get by with just rsync, do.
Wow. They even managed to keep the UX like in 1992.
Yep, in theory it’s great if you can afford a team of highly qualified engs to run it like google and dealing with huge metrics. In practice I found it was not hard to crash a monarch mixer (at least some years ago) + most orgs won’t be able to afford nor take advantage of it
Private Relay prevents everyone, including Apple, from snooping your traffic - assuming it behaves as they document it. Given the protocol appears to be designed expressly to shield traffic from spying by Apple and their partners, it seems reasonable to assume that they're being honest.
We definitely don't do SFTP! My general M.O. for moving files to running VMs is Magic Wormhole. But that's not optimal either. You've got a legit irritation and I'm glad you put it on our radar.
> We've been kicking around ideas for managing files on volumes. This is a common problem – it's actually more difficult than you'd expect because "securitah". Once your volume is mounted in one of your VMs, we can't run tools outside the VM to let you manage the file system. On something like k8s with vanilla Docker, we could. But no one should run multitenant Docker.

Was there a reason for not using something similar to kata containers where you run a microvm but still use containers inside them? It seems like it would make such things easier while getting the isolation of a VM.

I remember Jim Watson saying that stupidity could someday be cured, and everyone absolutely lost their minds and pretended that he was calling stupid people bad. Somehow.

Not hugely surprising to today-me, but I was still young enough that it was a bit disillusioning to see that people couldn't even see (or say out loud) that being more intelligent would help us all.

> Are you asking if you can run Docker inside a VM, and parcel that single VM out that way? You've got root in a full-fledged Linux VM, so you can do that.

On a single server VPS I'd use Docker Compose and up the project to run multiple containers.

On a multi-server set up I'd use Kubernetes and set up a deployment for each long running container.

On Heroku I'd use a Procfile to spin up web / workers as needed.

The Fly docs say if you have 1 Docker image you need to run an init system in the Docker image and manage that in your image, it also suggests not using 2 processes in 1 VM and recommends spinning up 1 VM per process.

I suppose I was looking for an easy solution to run multiple processes in 1 VM (in this case multiple Docker containers). The other 3 solutions are IMO easy because once you learn how they work you depend on the happy path of those tools using the built in mechanisms they support. In the Fly case, not even the docs cover how to do it other than rolling your own init system in Docker.

If you have root, can I run docker-compose up in a Fly VM? Will it respect things like graceful timeouts out of the box? Does it support everything Docker Compose supports in the context of that single VM?
The why do they need H1Bs? They clearly want the best of both worlds. Cheap labor in their time zone. H1Bs obviously increase the skilled labor supply. If the laws of supply and demand are true, the price of labor will fall as supply rises.
Avoiding stupidity is easier than trying to be brilliant.
Even so, it doesn't make sense to concentrate the pain on the basis of nationality.
Love taskwarrior. As someone with ADHD/executive function issues, who struggles to prioritise, I find the "urgency" calculation invaluable. Even when it doesn't quite match reality, it's handy to have a starting point I can disagree with.

The extensibility is fantastic. I have little cron scripts to pull my work tasks from Asana, requests for code review from Github, and enter a task automatically when someone on my team requests leave for me to review.

Brandur I think you left just before we started to have real headcount problems which I blame for our demise. I agree with pretty much everything you said but I think the technical and product problems you bring up were actually symptoms, not causes.

A few more people and we could've properly maintained the stacks. We should've had an entire team if not department dedicated to thinking about Docker. If I recall it was a part-time concern for like 2 of the language engineers (who had a ton of work on their plates).

Heroku should not have stopped at Cedar: it should've been the one to build something akin to k8s but with good DevEx.

As far as why we had headcount problems: it's because sfdc gave up on us. See Craig[0] and Adam[1]'s comments for more on that. We certainly did though: sfdc would have entire teams dedicated to similar roles we would have individuals handling part-time. Salesforce folks would tell you we were cocky assholes and they were right—but we also worked damn hard.

Yes that I was questioning the, to me, non-sensical 1==1. Why would you not for the normal form of the tautological statement, And if you don't go for the normal form, why choose 1==1 and not one of the infinite other forms.

I can reach those values by exercising or even constricting muscles (e.g. sphincter) but you wouldn’t say that I’m stressed. Stress as I understand it is a complex state characterized by among others, excess anxiety, increased basal metabolic rate, heightened awareness. Essentially an increase in most dimensions from a basal rest state.

When programming in the small, I can see where a robust type system might feel like it's adding complexity and "getting in the way".

When programming in the large, type systems are flat out an unmitigated win. The more you can confidently assert about your program before run time, the more time and money your team will save. If you are programming a large system and not using strong static typing, optimally with higher-level features like parametric types, then you are doing it wrong.
I work in an international company where that is absolutely not the case.

India and China development is limited for regulatory reasons, but we do employ as many people there as possible.
Men have throughout history had the strangest ideas about women despite, as you said, having sisters and so on. I agree that is weird.

Of course a willing male game dev could research anything necessary to portraying women accurately. Or, alternately, you could hire female game devs or at least some consultants and get on with actually making the game.
I'm wondering if they could technically lose their ability to display or market their devices as bluetooth-compatible if they don't follow the specs.
Depends on what you would consider a "wild amount".

Their app platforms' bandwidth pricing is pretty painful at 0.10$/GB. With these prices and considering the app platform lacks functionality like multi-regional droplets or VPC integration, they are a subpar choice even compared to Firebase or Amplify.
Fortunately, we now have Copilot to write it.

I'm not kidding. Go is at a very nice verbosity level as far as reading code goes, but writing it is indeed tedious occasionally. However, in practice, Copilot is able to handle those bits extremely well, giving us the best of both worlds.
After seeing your comment, I watched a TED Ed about it[1], and now I am convinced, for it to have survived for so long, it is a relic and time forgot why it was saved. It's Leonardo Da Vinci's childhood notebook, has to be, there is no other explanation for why it would have been kept since the 15th Century. So it's likely to be derivative of Italian, Latin, and other languages he spoke and wrote. No, wait... it very well could have been created by some other weird kid from the 15th Century no one's heard of. Come on.

There's no reason that each camera has to be focused on the same part of the grating, right? 4x cameras, point each at a different region and stitch it in software.
I definitely knew people who got PhDs mostly because of immigration law. "Well, I'm not going back to Iran and the mullahs, but I can't get a work visa, so..." It distorts the incentives.

It's amazing how US randomly chooses 50000 people every year through a lottery and provide them with green card but wouldn't provide the same number to backlogged skilled employees who are already in the country for 10+ years, paying taxes, contributing to the country, and vetted multiple times through interviews and immigration.

Apple explicitly documents that they ensure that private relay data is opaque to them, the also document the audits to show that they cannot spy on the data. As a result iCloud Private Relay is strictly more private than any other VPN service.
> You might say the standard natural numbers are those of the form 1 + ··· + 1, where we add 1 to itself some finite number of times. But what does 'finite number' mean here? It means a standard natural number! So this is circular.

Huh -_-a. Does anyone have a quick rundown?
An interesting question the article doesn’t address is the current state and fate of *.hk
While this is a technically correct answer, I can't help but think the US isn't at particular risk of being colonised by a militarily overwhelming foreign force that also has smallpox. Indeed, if this were a concern, mere immigration law would hardly help!
Would Indian want to work in China instead? I rest my case.

The thing is, that's the price you pay if you have to migrate to do well. I think India is changing, more Indian talent should focus their energy on making their country better.

I get a feeling that "Indians" is just a nation concept, it's actually made up of many ethnic groups. It's like Korea and Japan, and China being one country. That's India. If India were to split up then it might be better for the country.
I think the parent believes that code which allocates a lot and puts function calls in tight loops is an end unto itself, and he’s quite correct that Go isn’t going to perform well in those cases. Go’s memory management chooses expensive allocations and low latency over cheap allocations and high latency, which is appropriate because idiomatic Go doesn’t allocate often but as with anything, people who want to deviate from Go’s opinions experience a lot of friction and express frustration by characterizing Go as a bad language or in this case “a drawer full of dull knives”. One wonders if the parent gets frustrated that his blender is no good for driving nails or that his sink is too small to bathe in.

I know it's a joke, but positioning Bill Gates, especially early-'90s-era Bill Gates, as some sort of savior doesn't work for me.

Now, Knuth gave the world TeX, and I'm all on board for praising that contribution to humanity.
IIRC, homing pigeons use infrasound (sound waves below 20 Hz) to navigate, so it may be worth trying them instead of ultrasound in the hope common pigeons too would be sensitive to them. That would require some power and a bigger transducer (namely a subwoofer); still a lot better than having to deal with their excrement.

As I said in the comment above, I was doing that, it was kind of working although I wouldn't say well. But then it totally stopped working - "don't recommend channel" stopping working and I think "not interested" stopped working too. The only solution was to clear my watch history and start over.

If you search you'll find this is extremely common - I think there was even a HN post about it a few weeks ago.
