Sort of the same thing happened to my mom's family. Her grandparents immigrated to another country (not US) and the natives were very hostile to them because of their last name.

They changed it to a native sounding last name and were able to integrate into society.

However, on her side of the family, some of the relatives choose to go back to the old last name, so when we have reunions there is a mix of people with the native and original last name.

I sometimes wonder if the move to microservices isn't just a weird consequence of Conway's law in reverse: make a department of each developer, let them have their thing.

Well, I'm focusing on business use cases – stock images and how Accomplice could be useful for marketing and content creation.

Etc etc. AI can make all this stuff easier. And you have a sense of ownership over what you create. All in one place where you can collaborate on all of it with your team. I feel like that's valuable. It's certainly a tool I've always wanted.

But, also, as a bit of an aside – if the Googles and OpenAIs of the world are just going to bite every artist's style anyway with a mostly black box service and training set… it feels like the option for an artist to train/finetune their own model, promote it and possibly make money off of that is worth trying.
I agree that risk is a good measure, but I think the question still stands. Since there aren't any laws saying "you can't have x if it could kill y amount of people", you still have the interpretive aspect of "how many people is okay to kill?" It sounds established that a number greater than 0 is okay, so again, where is the line drawn?
I can second that. You may also enjoy The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity[1] which goes into a ton of detail about the sate archeology regarding pre-Colombian peoples in the Americas.

One follow up question - does risk-with-ill-intent play into your calculus at all? EG if there was a gun that had same accident risk as a revolver but you could kill 1M people with it before being stopped, should that be legal? If not, where’s the limit of risk-with-Ill-intent.

A related, follow up question is your thoughts on requirements to get said items. Should background checks be required? Training?
> Wow Will was such a part of my childhood watching Star Trek. Obviously, he didn't appear often but he was memorable simply because there were so few people as young as him on the show.

Yeah, he's 5 years older than me, but I remember watching that show and daydreaming about how cool it would be to live on the Enterprise and how I would be best friends with Wesley Crusher.

I know adults loved to rag on the character and (re-watching it as an adult) I can see where some of the criticism of how he was written comes from. But there were so many parts of that show that have not aged well, and the "token genius kid" is still one of the least annoying to me.
Options have a tendency to disappear 90 days after cessation of employment. The point is to buy in when Stock is cheap, so that you're in a good position to reap the gravy train come IPO time.

You have to actually hold those shares at that time, ehich requires exercising. Exercising involves some level of risk. If you aren't sure your employer is going to make it, or is really aligned to do good for the market, it is entirely rational not to put your money on the line. Equity compensation is a way to, in theory, keep incentives aligned. You're in a position to eventually get out what you put in.

Taking out loans to buy more options than you are granted, or to cover the cost of exercising is basically adding a layer of confidence in success. Hard pill to swallow in this case though.

Yes, there is definitely a chance but it was wayyyy worse when I gave it more or unlimited ram. At least this way the machine was operational most of the time. I don't think it was swapping but since I think the limit I applied also affected the page cache it was likely reading it's data from disk a lot more often than it would of if it could own the whole page cache. But this is basically the same effect as swapping.

Maybe there is a Goldilocks value I could find, but I didn't really need IPFS running that much so I just removed it.

Apple to Keep iPhone Production Flat as Market Grows Tougher
Long ago (~year 2000), Perl 6 was announced with great fanfare. Larry Wall set out to start producing a bunch of specs ("Apocalypses", "Synopses" and "Exegeses"), while a bunch of people set out coding. Then two things went wrong.

First, the Perl 6 development had bad project management. According to the reports, the culture attracted experimentalists with interesting ideas, but didn't get along with boring people who wanted to do things like releases and steadily approaching functionality. So there were a number of projects, a number of which were abandoned. Things dragged on, and nobody was cracking the whip. It took 15 years for Perl 6 to finally announce its first official release.

Perl 6 also turned out to be too different from Perl 5. Different syntax, and no XS, which meant every Perl module interfacing with a library wouldn't work even if some sort of automatic conversion, or compatibility mode was possible. XS is tied to Perl 5's internals, and Perl 6 was an effort to make a new language from scratch, without using the old interpreter.

Meanwhile, people started abandoning Perl 5 reasoning that since Perl 6 was in development, 5 would eventually die, and the lack of compatibility would mean current efforts on 5 would be wasted.

It took a very long time but finally it was decided that Perl 6 wasn't really Perl 6, but some other, Perl-like language, and renamed to "Raku" to signal this. But by then it was already too late, most everyone had already moved on, and by the time when Perl 6 was finally released it was an extremely niche thing very few people had any interest in.

Meanwhile, Perl 5 development continued in the background, and they decided that it'd jump version from 5 to 7 to avoid confusion. Perl 7 is the direct descendant of Perl 5, with the same syntax, new features and very few deprecated things.
To be clear, this only limits who the government can do business with ("prohibited contracts with companies that discriminate against the firearm or ammunition industries")

> (b) Except as provided by Subsection (c) and Section 2274.003, a governmental entity may not enter into a contract with a company for the purchase of goods or services unless the contract contains a written verification from the company that it:

I think your general point is true but the personal blogs of devs angle is maybe not the most illustrative one.

We tend to apply industrial strength tools to our personal projects because it's some combination of what we already know, or we're trying to learn or refine an unfamiliar skill.

That's not consistent with the reality of the rest of the world. Australia banned guns in 1996 and has had one mass shooting since, compared to 66 in the US in April of this year.
Isn't that what you would expect in a private key encryption system? (in contrast to a public key encryption system like most of us are used to using)
Speaking from experience, no it's not. At least, the work is easy to pivot into, but finding the work is .... NOT.

Once you find a good one though, it's OH so much more rewarding than office work, for some people at least (including me). There's a lot more freedom and flexibility in how you get the work done, less (zero!) politics, and going above and beyond is more appreciated by a client than an employer. (which opens the door to repeat business!)

My career has been (to a first approximation) alternating between full time roles at startups and consulting work. When I'm doing consulting work, it's 1-2 months work, 3-5 months off, not the other way around. YMMV, this experience may be specific to my working style, and the sort of projects I do. I like to land a juicy project, work in long intense bursts until it's done, then collect the check (sometimes one halfway through). I've never billed per hour, almost always per-project, but occasionally per-week (for deep pocketed clients).

The hard part is finding clients. If anyone figures it out, do let me know.

I've used every strategy I can think of and I have yet to find something that reliably works, so you've got to do everything at once. Social connections, "professional networking", email lists, craigslist (in the mid 2000s), Many of the large projects come via "friend of a friend". Word gets to me through a friend that someone's day job involves them doing something I suspect I could improve, I arrange an introduction, and, well, work up the company's food chain, then try to get to yes :) That being said, the most lucrative project yet I found on reddit! 1 month of work, then 6 months off. :) [In that case, the tool I wrote replaced more than 50% of the client's work]

Finally, something you might want to consider is working with a contract placing firm. I've never done it myself, but I've gotten close during my most recent employment hunt (which ended days ago). I've talked with several of them, as well as outside recruiters, and if you're interested, I'd be happy to point you towards the people I liked (including the recruiter who landed me my new and awesome full time job, if our skills are similar.)

My email addr is in my profile.

I've often thought that there's still a missing market to be filled, somewhere where people with different skill sets can form loose associations, and then find opportunities together. "whole is greater than the sum of its parts" &c. The group can then sell to the client.

Liability insurance just means rich people have guns. the people who would most benefit from guns for self defense, low income people in high crime areas, would be excluded from gun ownership due to excessive costs. The police also aren't the answer as they have no duty to actually protect you, and have shown repeatedly that they will simply wait for overwhelming force while a shooter is killing people.

Gun registrations just tell the government, or anyone who can access the registration where to get guns. Registrations don't stop anything and only serve to create more criminals from otherwise innocent people if they don't file paperwork on time. Also, in the U.S. any form of government list of people is heavily suspect regardless of guns, a vast majority of people simply don't want anything that can let the government easily track them. Social Security is barely tolerated for keeping massive amounts of seniors from starving to death, even then the creation of the SSN was hugely controversial.
Only 10% of the domestic news reports on the mosque shootings in Christchurch, NZ in 2019 even mentioned the shooter by name[0]. News reports in other countires didn't follow suit, but there's at least one example where an effort was made to deny the shooter a platform.

>> Making guns illegal won’t stop anyone touched enough to shoot up a school/gay bar/concert/grocery store. They’re going to find a way to do it.

Somehow in my country (Poland) and in most of Europe they do not find a way to get the guns. Most of incidents of this class is done with knife or with some kind of vehicle (car or truck). I think that throughout history we had like literally one or two shootings in schools and I don't think in any one instance there was automatic weapon involved.

To think that this kind of prohibition of gun possession does not work You have to be really ignorant of what really is happening in other countries.
