"...in the USA."

I wonder if, when some teacher eventually does go on a spree, the training will allow them to rationally kill more 'than would have been previously expected".

Additional gun question. In religious schools would nuns, for example, be expected to be armed?

OP bought one set of season tickets to their favorite baseball team, went to the games they wanted to see, and sold tickets to the games they didn’t want to attend to other fans for less than face value and (presumably) without the outrageous fees that you’d pay at Ticketmaster, et al.

Every casual season ticket holder does this, but most of us don’t systematize it - we just send messages to our group chats, and if nobody wants the tickets for that game then the seats stay empty. There’s absolutely nothing scummy or untoward about OP’s approach.
I think every single person in my lab was on a J-1. This was in the 2006-2010 timeframe, the H1B process for post-docs may be different now. I can think of one case where a researcher burned out on 80 hour weeks, got divorced, and was asked to leave after their productivity dropped. They didn't have much choice other than to go home to their home country immediately.

We also had an untenured research scientist who did all of the PI's work and grant writing. After two 110+ hour weeks getting three grants written for several million dollars they went home to enjoy the weekend and dropped dead of a heart attack at 42. I miss him.
Do you machine-generate views and stored procs for reading/writing data?

How do you handle referential data? Like, order lines should have a foreign key linking them to the relevant order "head". Self-referential foreign key on the id table?

Also, how's performance on a single node with a wide-ish "table"? Like, say I need to insert 1k rows x 30 columns, a fairly common, light load for us.

edit: oh yeah, and what about indexing? We have a lot of indexes that touches 3-5 columns, and some even more, and almost all of those mix data types. For example we might have an (varchar, timestamp, varchar) index. Some of these are unique indexes, for consistency. These are crucial for normal operation.
The data from multiple sources is collected by aggregators. In theory, its "anonymous" because it doesn't have your name and address on it. But in reality it contains hundreds of data points including everything from your TV watching habits (from your smart TV and streaming services) to your credit card history (sold by the card companies and retailers) and much more.

Customers who match the criteria selected by advertisers can be targeted for other ads -- on different websites, streaming channels, by mail, etc. So this is how advertisers have access to information about you which they, themselves, did not collect.
> It it an open standard that gives developers what they need in a way that LV2 never will.

This is false. The biggest issue with LV2 from the perspective of the people most responsible for CLAP was the governance model and/or what is required to shape an already decade-old open source API/library project. LV2 is 100% capable of doing anything CLAP can do, but the most significant CLAP players didn't want to go through the process that would have been required to make that happen.

Also: per-note expression is not a problem caused by plugin APIs. It requires a completely different data model for musical performance (whether MIDI is involved or not) than has traditionally been the case. Adding it to a plugin API possibly makes it just a tiny bit easier, but compared to the challenge of providing the user with a way to edit this, that's a nothing burger. If you want a more technical analogy: any DAW can record and playback MPE already, because it's nothing more than MIDI data. But allowing the user to control the evolution of CC43 and CC57 for the 85th note ... that's a totally different ball of wax.
Well then, sounds like it may be time for the .NET foundation to create a fork of v6 and add hot reloading back.

Those days still exist! If you want your mind blown watch the Epic Games Nanite talk from last year's SIGGRAPH where the core rendering of the dense vertex data is done directly in Compute , IE software rendered, instead of using the hardware rasterization hardware which has a minimum 4 pixel invocation overhead which gets expensive with very small triangles.

This is but one example of this that's happening every day, there is much much more like hair rendering in EA FIFA soccer or automatic trading financial software running on GPUs.

There's a whole world of applications where people are still concerned with every last cycle of performance just like in the C64 days.

It probably depends on how you define "schema-less". I can't speak for all brands, but in Dynamic Relational, a draft RDBMS idea, if you issue "SELECT madeUpColumn FROM myTable", you'd get nulls for that column (assuming myTable has rows). Depending on settings, the table could also be made up (unused), in which case you'd get zero rows back.

You'd never get errors like "column doesn't exist" or "table does not exist" (unless you add constraints, which would be common as projects mature to ensure data integrity). You can only see if there is non-null data in a named slot. In such a case, there is no formal centralized schema. Any notion of schema would come from a survey of what data exists. Columns and tables are essentially "create on write" (UPDATE and INSERT).
Yachts aren't inherently scarce, they're just expensive to build and maintain. With more money, more yachts can be built.

And given that music is especially easy to copy with the internet, it doesn't follow that their popularity will decline, it simply means that fans will be limited to only watching via TV or the internet rather than being able to attend concerts.

Likewise with sports and sports teams.
This is true. None of Asimov's early male characters have actual gender.

Every time he tried to assign gender it was horrible. Susan Calvin as the distant, unfeeling woman who could only be a mother to a robot was one.

There was:

* the housewife who fell in love with her robot

* the mother who saved a robot instead of her biological child and was killed by her husband

* the woman who poisoned her genius husband after he created a temporary time-travel technology because she didn't believe he'd ever get the credit

* the wife who ruins her husband's chance to hook up with a real bombshell on Mars by showing up a little too early with her mother

* about five shrewish mothers who didn't trust robots around their children and were proven wrong

* "Little Miss", whose only achievement is being open-minded about her "male" robot being sentient

* Several stories about "intuitive robots" who had to be made feminine so that men would bother talking to them. I still remember the cringe-worthy line: “Listen, men respond to voices. At the most intimate moments, are they looking? It’s the voice in your ear.”

And I'm just going off the top of my head here. There's so much more.

Then Asimov took a three-decade break from fiction. When he came back every explicit woman was some kind of super-powered bimbo.

Asimov was at his best when you couldn't sense any gender. His notion of gender was deeply unsettling.

Strip malls are generally one story buildings with tons of parking. They’re exactly the sort of thing that even very strict zoning codes allow.

If you instead checked how much of the state allowed 6-story apartment buildings, you’d come to a very different conclusion. Doubly so if the building didn’t have a massive parking lot.

Something like 15% of all home sales over the past year were institutional buyers according to a report by the national association of realtors. [0]

It was more dramatic for some counties - Austin’s for example saw 41% of homes sold to institutional buyers.

As rates rise and a recession looms, time horizon before profitability shrinks and ability to pay rent falls into question, which puts these regions at risk of a crash in price as these parties may have to liquidate.

We have had a historic move up in rates but that is coming out of COVID with rates at levels that don't even make sense to lend at for 30 years with out the Fed.

It would seem hard to believe housing prices are not overvalued with that artificially low rate regime but it is also hard to see housing prices crash in a massive inflationary environment. I would think we have a small pull back and then a flat line as time catches up with price.

Of course, real estate price is always local so generalizing to the whole country doesn't mean so much.

Canada I think is more interesting than the US with all the adjustable rate mortgages. Obviously, that is not going to end well when those rates adjust as an adjustable rate mortgage is basically a bet on what is happening, not happening.

That is exactly how science works. The have presented a hypothesis that has not stood up to scrutiny and doesn't fit the evidence. Instead of looking for new hypothesis and they resubmit the same one with modified evidence each time. They are invested in the outcome, not they data, and they are as far from the spirit of science as people can be.

They were off on their comet impact crater age by 57,990,000 years. Thinking a crater was 10,000 years old when it's actually 57,000,000 year old is so fantastically incorrect that it should immediately disqualify the persons proposing it from further part in the discussion. Even if you remove the people from the discussion, no part of the theory stands up to scrutiny aside from a warming trend that's better fit by other less dramatic root causes.
That's a bit of a stretch of an interpretation - you can serve fonts via Google as long as you obtain permission, and it being illegal doesn't mean you're going to get put in jail. The case this came from finedthe company €100.
As I see it, the story here isn't "wow barbers in rhode island have too much power" the story is "why did we abandon them so badly they were driven to this extreme?"

This situation exists because barbers managed to organize enough to get their profession enshrined in law in a way that protects their wages. Making a skilled but underpaid profession into a reasonably well paid one.

If the US had decent baseline wages and protections for workers, barbers wouldn't have to go to great lengths to protect themselves at the cost of stupid hoops for anyone trying to enter the profession.

It's like in a western, where some town on the frontier - ignored by the government and civil society - turns to a gang of outlaws for protection. Extreme circumstances lead to extreme solutions.
wow, this is actually awesome! I had this exact problem at one point and would have loved this. Pretty weird market, though. I suspect you have two segments and the overall user base may be smaller than you think:

2. People at work (tech/consulting/finance mainly, mostly analysts) who have past experience with windows excel and currently use Macs. You may be underpriced here

The big deal is that two engine aircraft are now covering the routes that were once only practical (or legal, under ETOPS[0]) with three or four engine planes. This makes them more desirable and helps carriers phase out the larger planes they still have -- none of which are being manufactured anymore.

>As a AMD fanboy who loves seeing them back on top

I am not a fanboy, but a realistic dude.

AMD ruled the last years but Alder Lake overtook Vermeer on both performance and price/performance.

And that is with a process node difference, Intel using 10nm vs AMD using 7nm.

And the future looks like Intel will enhance the distance between its performance and AMD's.

> VST3 is the one that sticks out like a sore thumb, because it represented a radical change in how the user interface classes interact with the audio processor class. This created a massive problem because you had to assume that the UI and the processor were essentially running in separate processes and communicated via message passing through a specific interface or just plain text.

Adding VST3 support to Ardour/Mixbus, we did not experience this as a notable issue at all.

Far more problematic from a hosting perspective in VST3, though it has also been present in AU since the start, is multi-bus output. At the "processing audio" level, it's still pretty simple, but "allow the user to connect stuff" level, its far from simple, unless you just do what reaper has done and flatten all the busses.

VST2 was not "open" in a way that made it usable by libre software developers. AU doesn't really matter much since it's single platform.

I think it is also important to stress again that most plugin developers that do this stuff for anything close to a living have not targetted specific plugin APIs for years. As you noted, many will use a framework like JUCE, others have their own in-house equivalent, which lets them create the DSP and GUIs in a plugin-API agnostic way.
Arguably the 1980-81 era is a bit of an outlier, but perhaps instructive due to some of the similarities. The Fed under Volcker caused mortgage rates to rise to close to 20%. This was done to quell inflation that had proven persistent during the 70s. Back in '08 I recall looking at home sales data for my state (Oregon) during that era and there were quarters where the average selling price went down almost 20%. Of course, that's average selling price - it doesn't necessarily translate to home prices falling 20%, volume also fell (also consider that Oregon was very timber dependent then and there was suddenly a lot less home building going on). I suspect we'll see mortgage rates this time around hit 8% which really isn't an unusual rate historically, but given current prices that kind of rate will cause disruption. Bottom line: wait for rates to go higher - prices will fall. You can refinance the mortgage after rates go back down some, but I wouldn't expect to see 3% 30 year mortgages for a long time.
BindPlane OP
You have basically recreated your own datastore on top of an existing DBMS, on top of which you have to create your own database. You will have to translate queries and reimplement many features like schema/data migrations, constraints, ... to get to a similar product with worse performance but (hopefully) better suited for your deployment strategy.

Do what works for you I guess.

> What's the value of a monorepo if developers only ever check out a small subset of it?

There's a couple of different views of this:

If the subsets are overlapping then the monorepo has had great value. Let's say you've got modules A, B, C and D. Dev 1 is interested in A and B, Dev 2 is interested in B and C, etc. In a multirepo world you have to draw a line somewhere and if someone has concerns overlapping that line then they're going to have to play the 'updating two projects with versioning' game.

The other way of looking at it is "data model" vs "presentation". Too often with git we confuse the two. Spare checkout is a way of presenting the relevant subset to each user. It is nice to be able to consider that separately from whether we want to store all that data together.
It's possible to embed nodejs (or V8 or demo) in a Rust binary. So perhaps we could embed nodejs into the rust backend and just run a nodejs app.
