RSUs are better but you can't get them before a company goes public. RSUs will have non-zero value. Options might never be exercisable but they're the normal way you get a stake of ownership at a startup (you don't get stock). So if you want to own part of a company before it goes public and you're not an investor, options are usually the only way on offer.

> [nuclear has] produced vast amount of predictable carbon-free energy

We really can't describe a commercial nuclear power plant as "carbon-free".

Sure, responsible for much less carbon than coal or gas per kW/h, but taking into account the lifecycle, almost certainly way more carbon than renewables.([0] and other sources):

Its useful to think about natural selection like the R value for a virus. A gene + environment has an R value (like a virus + its environment. e.g. masks, geography, etc), if this value is higher than 1 it will, over time spread into the gene pool, and under 1 it will die out of the gene pool.

If you think a gene proliferated into the gene pool just because, your still saying its R is 1+, only that the environment played a larger part than the gene.. which is probably always the case anyway.

A few years ago I spent a couple of months using C# w/ vscode. The experience was indeed harrowing.

Omnisharp would take forever to start up (always downloading a new Omnisharp binary on every restart for some reason?!), type checking was unresponsive to the point of being unusable, and the whole thing would freeze and stop working entirely every once in a while, requiring me to reload the IDE. I tried various versions of Omnisharp (stable/beta) across many C# projects and several vscode deployments on multiple machines and never got it to work well. I eventually decided Omnisharp would never improve and abandoned vscode because of how uniformly bad it was for C#.
I'd say that most corporate-backed platforms will have similar issues.

> Public companies are inherently evil by default -- this is because the only goal of a public company is to strengthen the share price

I was hoping this was going to talk about the phases of database growth/cost as in the development of PostgreSQL but rather it's about the phases as a user.

Still a good article where the first phase lines up with my experience exactly but I kind of lost the point of the second phase. To me phase 2 is 1) indexes, 2) partioning/sharding (and maybe introducing a Postgres addon or switching Postgres vendors to support this), and 3) rethinking what gets stored in Postgres in the first place or 4) setting up processes to migrate old data out of Postgres into s3 or something.
How to Use Twig in Laravel
As I have said it on the original GitHub issue, there are multiple reasons for why the lives of .NET developers will always suck.

First of all every division at Microsoft needs to be cash positive. At DevDiv (developer devision) the main bread maker is Visual Studio. .NET is free and makes no money. VS Code is free and makes no money. OmniSharp is/was free and made no money. ASP.NET is free and makes no money. It's mostly SQL and Visual Studio licenses which pay the salaries of the .NET team. For that reason Microsoft can never let it happen that a free and open .NET extension can make VS Code a good enough experience for the vast majority of .NET developers. It's not by accident that despite Microsoft owning C#, .NET, VS Code and OmniSharp the C# experience on VS Code was the worst of its kind in comparison to any other programming language. It's by choice in order to push developers to use Visual Studio.

Another big reason is that Microsoft needs to keep a tight grip around their .NET developers, because .NET is the main driver to Azure adoption. Azure is an extremely unattractive product to any other development community. Azure is slow, it breaks, it over promises and under delivers and it is almost twice as expensive to AWS or GCP once you actually establish feature parity. It's mainly .NET devs who get cleverly pushed to Azure and siloed away from anything non-Microsoft by Microsoft. The world runs in the cloud nowadays and the cloud is a unix based environment. Microsoft has felt the bleed of its traditional Windows centric developer base migrating away to macOS and Linux and becoming more wise about their technology choices. In order to stop the bleed Microsoft tries hard to convince its remaining Windows developers to remain in the Windows/Azure silo by giving them just enough sugar coating so they never step outside. WSL, the new unix-like terminal in Windows, Windows containers, etc. are all attempts to keep Windows folks on Windows and therefore closer to Azure.

The irony with all of this is of course that if you are a software developer, you'll have a MUCH MUCH better experience with Microsoft owned products (GitHub, VS Code, etc.) if you choose any programming language which is NOT .NET, because (at least for now) they will not try to come after you to lock you into their Windows/Azure based silo.

Asset prices aren't that important on a day to day basis, what matters more is the cost.

If I have a 300k mortgage over 25 years at 7% that's $2121 a month

If I have a 500k mortgage over 25 years at 2% that's $2120 a month

The "price" doesn't really matter at that scale, it's the monthly payment, which hasn't gone up despite house prices increasing 67%

(More importantly with things constrained by zoning/land availability, the monthly price will be set to take all my spare case, as there's more demand than supply, so prices rise until the demand drops, which means people choosing not to live in that area. In other words the higher the salaries in a given area with fixed supply, the higher the cost of housing - be it mortgage or rent)

On the other hand if my weekly shop goes from $150 to $200, that's a 30% increase, and does make a difference.

For the app I work at the moment we use https://lokalise.com/. We add translation strings to a SaaS app, and then the translation team translate them. I've written a build tool that downloads the translation JSON files from the API using the CLI, or as part of our CI process. Other teams have tools that download their language packs for different iOS and Android apps. The translations are versioned in Lokalise and we using a branching strategy to manage the work. Lokalise has an option to generate xlf files (and JSON, xliff, arb, etc).

This is a very typical workflow. Most people are not out there modifying xlf files by opening them in a text editor. For a start, translations usually aren't done by developers.

(Huge shoutout to Lokalise btw. I can highly recommend it. It makes building a multi-lingual app across different platforms so much easier.)
Steam turbines are mature tech whose capex and opex are large and will not change. Likewise, high-pressure plumbing.

Thus, costs are not falling, and new starts are negligible. Even China, which asserts they will build 220 of them, has only started 10. The rest will be cancelled as their price is undercut, unless politics forces the matter. China is not cost- or value- driven. (Cf. "Ghost cities".)
You can also use someone else's ID and metadata, signing up to banking and Apple while remote desktopping in to a compromised windows computer near their postal code.

Compromised windows computers are listed by postal code on some market places.

This will pass practically all flagging on the transactional side.

(You can still use a company you formed as well, and DUNS number, for the public listing on the app store)

Not really that complicated.

Apple are down 26% ytd. It wouldn’t be unheard of in this market. What should hopefully be clear is that stocks such as Tesla are not particularly correlated to the fundamentals of the company, there are whole-economy effects driving price rises and drops.

What I see in Tesla:
- extremely profitable car manufacturing. industry beating profits per car driven by cheaper BOM than legacy manufacturers, in large part due to innovation. margin of 30.5%.
- Manufacturing limited - huge wait list despite accelerating production (Q1 2022 best quarter ever, 68% increase yoy).
- huge investments in manufacturing across the supply chain starting to pay off.
- for the first time, manufacturing investments that can rival premium legacies. With the factories in Berlin and Texas coming online, it’s believable that Tesla has capacity to produce in excess of a manufacturer like BMW.
- very high purchaser satisfaction (the product is good).
- large overall profit - already beating most in the industry.

The monolithic kernel has lost, only the FOSS UNIX clones haven't yet catch up to it.

OS X and Windows always had a hybrid architecture since the beginning, and with the push for user space drivers for third parties even more so.

Most commercial RTOS are microkernel based, like QNX and INTEGRITY.

Even Android imposes a fake microkernel like architecture since Project Treble, where since Android 8 classical Linux drivers are considered "legacy".

Then there is the whole irony that those that strongly argue for monolithic kennels, nowadays run Linux on top of a type 1 hypervisor, full of containers.

Well, in principle, you can operate with single-digit-microseconds latency via CUDA at least, it just involves breaking free of the normal kernel grid approach and using dedicated pre-spawned threads that run as persistent hardware threads on the GPU cores.

It's just that Windows resets the GPU driver if anything "hangs" for more than 5-10 seconds (like a persistent audio processing thread), and GPUs aren't always good at running multiple applications at the same time concurrently, so it may prevent graphics from happening while that audio thread is running (easily solved by not using that GPU to run any displays).

Edit: if anything, you can probably run harder real time code on a normal Nvidia GPU than on an Intel/AMD CPU, all of recent generation(s). Reason being that GPUs don't run management work on the application cores and have manually managed local scratchpad memory with bounded latency, but x86 CPUs have a system management mode for firmware/"BIOS" hooks that can interrupt the kernel at any time.
Is a MIT license a good fit for an open standard? What prevents any big nasty player adopting and sneakily subverting it with additions/changes in a truly EEE way?

> As we proceed beyond the initial set of extensions, we are committed to establishing a transparent process to govern the standard which allows participation from the entire audio software community. We welcome participation from the development community today, and we will share details of these processes and governing models over the second half of 2022.

That is a weird term for two reasons. First, isomorphism is an invertible structure-preserving mapping between two structures. While the trivial case of that mapping being an identity is technically also isomorphism, it renders the relationship between the two structures (here code bases for different environments) into an identity as well. At that point the multiple code bases you're talking about are identical, not just isomorphic. It's like calling humans "vertebrates". While technically correct, if you're talking for example about the consequences of wars, do you talk about the loss of human lives, or the loss of vertebrate lives? I imagine it's not the latter.

And second of course, "portable code" had been the accepted term for this "pattern" (if you can even call it this way) for decades already. I'm not quite sure why one would feel the need to randomly rename things that have already had perfectly functional names.
