The USB host controller does the polling in hardware. The cpu does not get involved until a key is pressed (the host controller can interrupt the cpu, telling it that new data is available).
from the design I've seen, the user-dependent data is mostly in S3. EBS should only have a minimal involvement -- probably only used for active data (waiting to be written, or perhaps cached data to safe an S3 call for recently requested data)

Looking at the design they are going for, I expect they can scale horizontally really well. I'm really looking forward to this as a low-cost hobbyist DB

Who needs a PhD for a "junior python developer role". Is it really necessary. This "python developer" idea sounds like it only applies to a small slice of PhD programs, notably the ones focused solely on computers. For example, what percentage of PhDs in molecular biology choose to become "junior python developer". When someone who believes a computer performing pattern recognition equates to a child having feelings and sensations^1 can become a "senior software engineer" at Google,^2 why is a PhD needed.

If you can sell 100 shares today and use that money to buy buy 200 shares in 6 months then you are better off than if you had held 100 shares for that same six months as long as you buy back into the market.

Actually trying to time the market is largely a fools game, but people do get lucky. Or more often realize they shouldn’t try and time the market.
This was me. Didn’t even look overweight really. My blood told the story despite appearances. Went keto. After a month, all my blood tests came back within normal levels. Additionally, my allergies have been lessened by such a degree I was able to quit taking antihistamines every day, chronic pain in my legs disappeared, my sense of smell increased, my sense of taste increased, mental clarity improved, emotional regulation improved, and I also lost some weight. I find it easier to work out as well, I just have more energy.

Everyday, I worry there is some terrible trade off, but signs of pre-diabetes and pre-non-alcoholic-fatty-liver-syndrome were bad enough in my mind that whatever the trade off is likely won’t kill me faster than either of those.

We should switch on time travel debugging when it’s worthwhile, and be aware of its actual costs, rather than always paying for stack frames because they might serve as an incomplete history (missing loop iterations and calls that already returned).
> If you leave the company, your options will expire if you don’t exercise them. Let me repeat that: if you leave the company, your options will expire if you don’t exercise them. The exact timeline of how quickly they expire depends on option type and company policy, but the termination window is commonly as short as 90 days. So, exercising your options enables you to actually own what you helped build.

This is why I choose to not work for companies that do not have extended exercise windows -- and IMO neither should you.

Just because you make something that's a derivative of a public domain work doesn't mean you own the copyright to it. It also needs your changes to meet the threshold of originality. Just one pixel definitely wouldn't, and it's a gray area whether just adding your signature would.

Also, wouldn't they just be displaying their derivative work, and giving the buyers the original?
Yeah. When I first went keto I didn’t know this. Started feeling sick. Google quickly told me that I wasn’t getting salt or potassium, so I ate a salted avocado. All better.
It sounds like you have almost no knowledge of the ecosystem. I wonder why you feel it is appropriate to criticize.

Memory safety is the main thing though, and people were not normally practicing web development in C.

For concurrency safety, there are a number of approaches from functional programming/immutability, to the actor model, to even PHP's shared-nothing architecture.

And then there's the whole area of type safety, fancy type systems, dependent types, etc.

Rust doesn't seem to be a particular standout for web application correctness in the same way that it is for systems code (where memory safety issues are indeed a huge deal), although you could certainly do worse.
There isn't a ton of boiler plate here. I was pretty lucky in that unlike most patients I actually felt better when something was working.

That didn't mean it solved the problem but it did mean I had some hints as far as what might work and feed back to pass to my second, third and fourth opinions.

That said insurance hides behind "medically necessary" procedures and medications.

In the real world if you are a tech founder (I was) you are betting on your self and hoping to make the right decisions. I made just about enough to stay alive and not go bankrupt but no where near good decisions to give you or anyone else any advice on what might work (you could have any number of different co-infections which each would change the calculus on which drugs might help).
Intel hired over 20,000 people this year alone (likely a record for them both in terms of absolute and relative percentage). The freeze is similar to that of other companies: Uncertainty over economic conditions.
Yeah, good advice would provide insight into why it is hard. I am not sure the linked article succeeds.

One insight I have had lately is that some people struggle to write because their brains are not "wired" in the right way to make it easy. It would be good if we didn't shame ourselves and others about a lack of progress and instead accepting that it might just require more effort to do some tasks for some people.
I advise you to think 'if I had the value of these shares as cash would I spend 100% of it on shares of this company?' The loss already happened, that part is done. The shares have no memory and won't 'rebound' like a rubber-band just because they were down before. What matters is new things that the company does going forward, relative to all other companies.

The odds of correct operation are higher with Rust, and for some people that matters a lot to them.

There are plenty of good reasons not to use rust. If your use case doesn't care about security, fine use whatever. Or if time-to-market is critical, use go or whatever. Or if your organization can't handle the risk that when you leave they can't find another good rust developer, then don't use it.
It's not so much about animals as about everything else. It's dangerous because we over-simplify in terms of ourselves, and we often therefore lead each other astray from demonstable accuracy.

We might commit atrocities as we are very wasteful, but with a little more "seeing the universe in ourselves" and a little less "seeing ourselves in the universe", we might refrain from anthropomorphisation and just enjoy our extraordinary amazingness, without destroying the planet as an afterthought to our vanity.

Anthropomorphism is boring and lazy
Like I said, mining Bitcoin can be argued to be adding value. Pure speculation can't - except via the second-order effect of encouraging more mining - so we shouldn't be surprised when speculators lose their gamble.
You know, bimodal distributions [1] are a thing. This applies even for a single person ("I'm of two minds about this topic").

To simplify things down to a single opinion for a population (or even a person) is reductionism.

> The worst outcome is I make no money; the best is that I keep 70% of my shares without paying for them. They even pay AMT.

I'm not 100% sure about this, but IIRC these programs are typically structured as a tax-free loan to you. If the shares end up worthless, the loan is then forgiven.

So while you may not be out the principle of the loan, or the AMT, the forgiven loan may be taxed as income at some point in the future.

I'm sure Neon's design can handle the hobbyist wordpress DB or personal project DB for <=$10/month since it can scale down to 0, and it likely would not be terrible for a cold-start on a small personal website to be 1-3 seconds for the first page load -- sure, bad for SEO, but I think a LOT of people want a DB that is managed and simple for <$20/month -- and again, I'm very hopeful Neon will have a nice pricing number here when they figure out their model, since a very tiny shared tenant should be very inexpensive for their model.

People get PHD’s because they love the subject matter and can get loans etc. But they then have a PHD that might not actually be worth anything and still need to eat.

I used the average airline pilot salary according to glassdoor. I doubled all the labor costs to account for non-wage expenses.

I'm sorry that wasn't good enough for you in a comment where I repeatedly qualified things as "back of the envelope" and "very rough" and so on, and made it clear I picked one particular model out of the blue.

...and the difference between fuel and labor was an order of magnitude, which more than answered the parent commenter.

Also, pilot seniority / pay varies with the route and schedule, not airplane model.
My kids say otherwise…
Someone (Iran) did do it for Iraq. What was our response?

It's a startup before IPO, so not liquid (unless the company offers to buy-back).

Success doesn't just magically cross all elements of human life!

The most visible SV VCs don't do themselves any favors. Granting the "I can built a successful company" component, there are many who then claim to understand society, politics, philosophy, and everything in between. Then they loudly talk about their opinions. And then people see it, and think "wow, not super smart huh".

The cherry on the cake is how many of these VC people get mad about cancel culture, cuz it turns out that social media means they have way more people calling them stupid to their face (an experience they likely don't have in their day to day life, as the person with the money/firing capabilities). (To be fair I also don't have people calling me stupid to my face and it sounds unpleasant)

Of course there are many VCs who don't play this game, don't pretend to have seen behind the curtain of the universe, and people don't make fun of them on Twitter. And many of those people are plenty successful and fine.

But there are a couple who become the butt of jokes because they like saying the name Socrates

The hardware stack has always been a crutch that in retrospect was probably a bad idea. We use it for jobs it's not well-suited for (like parameter passing, local variables, and debugging) and it has held back better flow control mechanisms like delimited and first-class continuations. And of course TCO, which wouldn't even be a thing if everybody didn't automatically assume a stack pointer was involved with every call. (Hard to imagine? Yes, but plenty of other flow control models exist.)

Stacks are still useful for low-level jobs like register spilling and interrupt handlers, and they make memory management of such data easy. Nevertheless
on modern machines with multicore processors running message-passing programs, the limitations of what can be done in high-level code with a one-dimensional stack pointer should now be obvious.
I think that’s what the OP is getting at though. Writing can be really fun, but we like to play mind tricks on ourselves and inevitably make it harder
A cautionary tale for you - I burned through 8 months of savings in the 2008 crisis. While the I-Bond isn't subject to market fluctuations, I am glad that my emergency fund was in cash/CDs and not invested. Because it would have lost 40% of it's value just when I needed it the most.
I would even say this goes down further - the motivation to even finish a PhD program may disappear entirely after hearing piles and piles of such stories in the first few years. The lack of sufficient funding from above combined with oversaturation of the industry with PhDs has a long-lasting and chilling effect on the entire academia, and possibly the industry itself too.

#2 has been predicted forever. What is your basis for saying that this time it will replace "a good portion of the US labor force"? Why will the next 8 years be different from the last 100?

Technologically, what do you think is going to drive #3? It isn't going to happen on its own; there has to be some (human, technical) cause.

Sociologically, what do you think is going to drive #4? People are already craving genuine human contact, as society becomes more and more dehumanizing. Why would they want even more virtual stuff and even less real human contact?

The advantage of lithium batteries is energy/weight and energy/volume. With grid storage, neither weight nor volume is much of an issue.

A couple years back, "60 Minutes" ran a segment of somebody developing grid batteries with seawater and dirt. They didn't store much energy per weight and volume, but who cares for grid batteries. I wonder what happened to this technology.

A few family friends have had Lyme's, and it's an absolutely awful disease.

10k is not that much money. I know it takes a lot of effort to save, but its small change. If you have somewhere to store it, buy consumable goods.

- Several hundred dollars each of tuna, prosciutto, a wheel of Parmesan, jerky, rice, flour.

- If you have an oil/wood heater fill up the tank. If gas buy plenty of wool sweaters.

- If you have to drive to work, get a scooter.

- If you live in Czechia, or Finland, (you're not Swiss I gather) a rifle, shotgun and/or pistol. Otherwise upgrade your locks

- Any left over money (if any) buy an assortment of gold, silver and what not.

This might all seem doom gloom, and it is. But inflation is the least of our concerns. We're headed straight to an early 90s Soviet style collapse of our economies.
Mine was in Spain, where I am from. And I also had kids at the time, which made the lack of life planning even more dangerous.
Depends. Pennies from 1920? Beat inflation. $20 coin from 1924 ($20 was worth an ounce of gold, so it was just an ounce gold goin)? Beat inflation.

Dollar bill from 1922? Lose, but mostly because the fed reneged on their obligation of gold backing.

I believe If you held 100 years from 1805 to 1905 there wasn't much inflation at all.

So it really depends.
Seems like grid scale storage could "solve" this, in precisely the way it does for renewables (ie. Treat nuclear as a sun that shines 24/7 and build storage to allow you to generate a bit above the average and follow the actual usage curve with storage).

That is, assuming that grid scale storage is in fact viable.
I only had options at one firm which was Series D and had ~300 employees. The company issued them at a price which was rich, then steadily issued new options at lower price points. The management made it a practice to have periodic calls which would talk about how they were 12-18 months away from IPO and the price target was going to be ~5x the rich price. Then there would be talks where engineering management would pitch fantasies about how stock pricing worked for IPOs.

Meanwhile growth had stalled, and competition was getting stronger. I left all my options un-purchased. 6 years later when they had a Private Equity buyout I probably would have made somewhere between a -50% and 2x return (depending on liquidation preferences, subsequent issuance, and debt). At best.. I would have had an non-liquid 12% rate of return, losing out to the S&P500 over the last 6 years.
