It's not the knowledge - it's the increased complexity of the entire stack, all the way down to the hardware. A modern linux kernel image is easily bigger than 8MB, and that needs to be in memory at all times. Why? Because of all the functionality it has these days, to fit all the possible usecases people need. Windows 95 didn't have Swap, didn't support many filesystems, didn't have central logging, didn't have ASLR, let alone support for containers, and many other features I'm forgetting along the way.

Sure you could strip away a lot of that functionality, even at the distribution level (by for example not using an init system at all, instead just one shell script to initialize things), but then you'd end up with an operating system that's not general purpose for today's standards anymore.
We did, but it didn't help.
As a developer from Eastern Europe:

* it is true we are more blunt than a lot of our Western colleagues

* blunt does not mean impolite -- I always try to say what I mean with plenty of layers of courtesy, but I do not mince what I mean

* the guy in the article seems like an asshole by Eastern European standards too (mentioning "my charisma" is pretty egoistical no matter how you spin it)

> Eastern Europeans are already marginalized in the Western software world

Not completely wrong but I'd say the software industry is the place I have felt the least marginalized. I left Eastern Europe and finding a job in the software industry was very painless for me, while other places would wish for perfect command of the local language, or discriminated against me almost explicitly. Which leads me to your next point..

> English is a non-native language to them

While true, it is rather annoying to have people hold this over your head when you speak and think in English for decades. I'm more well-read than half my native English colleagues who haven't picked up a literature book since high school, yet being "non-native" means that I constantly have people doubting my ability to speak English. At least I no longer have to hand in TOEFL exams to prove I can speak the language that I think in 24/7, including when I'm talking with my workmates, girlfriend, showering, taking a shit etc..
I think just supporting UVC instead of doing some other mess is what people really want and need.

How does annoyance justify not allowing cyclist to use the road safely?

> Are you seriously saying that cyclists won't be annoyed if they were forced to share their route with much slower moving obstacles?

I'm sure they would. But it's much harder to kill a person with a bike during a road rage incident, than it is to kill a person with a car. That's the fundamental difference here, cyclist annoyance has never led to pedestrian death, can you honestly say the same is true of car drivers?
It'd be neat to extend the warc format and tooling to support cached http responses for things like REST endpoints. Then you could make sure everything you did in a session is recorded for later use.

From the specification it would appear fairly straightforward once an approach was chosen...

Here's the relevant extract from the warc spec that informed my difficulty estimate -
"The WARC (Web ARChive) file format offers a convention for concatenating multiple resource records (data objects), each consisting of a set of simple text headers and an arbitrary data block into one long file."

Edit: Upon 2 minutes of reflection I think the way to go for what I'm envisioning is some kind of browser session recording -> replayable archive solution.
If you’ve practiced a normal diet and do a seven day fast you’re going to be fine.

If you’re anorexic, fast for 40 days, and don’t supplement with salts (particularly potassium) you’re going to have refeeding syndrome.

If one’s worried about it, just get ones blood work done before one starts eating again. It takes about an hour and will show you exactly what you are low on what to supplement to get to baseline. To the extent people are advising one not to do an extended fast without medical supervision - eh - basically the extent of the medical supervision is "let's run a panel every few days and see if anything is dangerously out of whack" - and maybe confine you to a hospital for the duration - but if you're not outside and walking a normal amount and say confined to a room you absolutely will lose a large amount of muscle.

Maybe where you live, but certainly not where I live, and where I eat. Don't project the destructive ways of your culture on everyone else. Not everyone eats the way you do.

I for instance, have been brought up on a Mediterrannean diet since birth and I still cook and eat for myself and my people the same way. The Mediterrannean diet is a plant based diet rich in vegetables, fruit, pulses, legumes, and also fish and dairy and overflowing with rivers of extra virgin olive oil. 80% of the traditional dishes in my culture have no animal products in them, or they have only dairy. In my entire life I will probably consume less meat and fewer animal products than any citizen of an industrialised country who turned vegan in their twenties.

So I'll take no preaching from you about how I eat, thank you very much. Fix your world and don't mind mine. It's not my lifestyle that is "destroying our biosphere", it is yours, and that of the people who live around you.

... meat and dairy addiction ... Faah. What clueless garbage! Milk and dairy is the richess of my land. You exploit your land to death and then you blame everyone else for your own failings?
Lost interest in this conflict months ago, YAWN.
I know that there are always exceptions and that some, i repeat some, will have problems on a plant diet.

But it will be IMHO a miniscule percent/promile, not a majority.

Only if you configure it to do that. You can use Wants= and After= for your service to start it after the network, but not restart otherwise.

The behaviour you describe is not unreasonable to want: If your network device goes away, what exactly are you binding the socket to? How are you restoring the listening when it comes back up? But it's up to you to say which one you want.
So, dumb question: Why is TLS pushed so heavily if everyone is expected to use a CDN anyway, which would be in a position to see and modify all traffic?

Or put differently, why are ISPs hostile entities against which web traffic must be protected, but CDNs and hosting providers are just fine?
Nothing in the article content, however suggests the author had the competency to teach or lead. Everything in the article does suggest the author thought they were hiring experienced programmers on new programmer salaries and were amazed and probably credited nicely by their management team initially.
This is assuming that nothing productive comes out of crypto. If it starts turning a profit then new entrants aren't required.
I recommend Proofs by Jay Cummings as an exceedingly gentle introduction of proofs. It's not as serious as your typical math textbook; it has plenty of jokes to keep you entertained. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08T8JCVF1

If you still want a gentle introduction to proofs but would prefer if the author uses a more serious tone like traditional textbooks, I recommend Proof and the Art of Mathematics by Joel Hamkins. https://www.amazon.com/dp/0262539799
Exactly. I put couple of Ikea Torsbo(? or something similar, can't remember the exact model) next to my monitor and they provide nice soft light to the face, which amazes some people. Literally spending 20€ on some cheap tabletop lamps would improve the quality dramatically for most of the people. I don't even have any fancy cameras, just a Logitech Streamcam I bought from some discount sale.

Just last night the owner of the neighborhood convenience store was asking me to explain NFTs, as one of his other regulars was hyping them up earlier that day. This man has run his business for decades, understands commercial banking services, etc. I could not for the life of me fully convince them that with NFT's, "there's no there there." Like these things have been so hyped by so many people close enough to the main stream that the fomo style "those rich guys have to be onto something smart with this" assumption is incredibly hard to disprove. The closest I got was using beanie babies as an example.
Years ago, I rode from Boston to Seattle (with a nontrivial and unplanned detour through Canada) by myself. I may never do another cycling tour again (for a number of reasons) but it was one of the greatest experiences in my life.

It all started out when I heard about some friends (brothers) who did the same and I know that I personally motivated at least 3 other people to do similar rides.

Oh jeez, I could go on and on actually, but I will keep it brief, it was a wonderful experience overall. I am lucky and grateful that I was able to do something like that.
Well, i have Logitech C925e, which has MPEG encoding hardware, but as people switched to WebRTC in browsers, it is unlikely to get supported in software (browsers).

Since they moved macOS off version 10.x (finally), "Apple's crack marketing team" left the desert (Mojave) for the Pacific coast. Unfortunately, they didn't plan the trip carefully, so they started at Big Sur with macOS 11, went north to Monterey for macOS 12, then turned around and headed back south to Ventura for macOS 13. At least those locations are in alphabetical order -- but with Ventura they seem to have painted themselves into a corner.

So will macOS 14 be further south (Carlsbad?) or back north (Eureka?) -- stay tuned...
Research is fuzzy word in this bubble. I've seen people crafting their own tiny metric: twitter liveness, github activity, size of source code, website quality. White paper reading (I skimmed through a few, it felt like marketing speach most of the time). It only feels solid for newbs who never designed a system or seen math above HS level.

Hm. Interesting: you could put the battery in the screen making it quite a bit thicker, and then have the base thinner, that would change the balance though and it might not be as stable when sitting open on a desk. It'd be great to have a 20 hour life laptop though.
No, it needs to be better in every way. If it’s not, then what’s the fucking point? Popularity and a better replacement are two different things.
Taleb is basically a con artist imo. He writes about ideas which are obvious but obfuscated to seem insightful, then claims that mainstream experts don't agree with them, and implies that he was the first to understand it and that you must be a smart person because you see it all yourself. It's a vicious persuasive technique and it seems to be his entire MO. Constantly he will attack people by asserting they hold specific views and challenge them to defend them.

Not sure, but I smell intolerance for craft, and micromanaging. You’re going on with this “optimize for efficiency” and “good enough” rhetoric but tell me: how are you going to make a bunch of professionals care about your widgets if you keep mortifying their interest in them?

And let’s assume they deliver your acceptance criteria, do you really think you have enough requirements to keep them busy and interested?

Are you going to let them do what they’re good at? No because that’d be waste since it wasn’t vetted!

That is certainly not the "mathematical point of view" of what language is. Not sure if I completely agree with the other commenter, but languages are not just "a set of words".
To get to $100m you have to do so many things right and so many things wrong that it's hard to isolate any one or two things. But key is that the co-founder and CTO stuck to what he knew and focused on solving a business problem. Angular or React doesn't matter; could have gone the other way.

You probably mis-understand what I mean by "dumb" and why I put it in quotes. Things that are "dumb" are intentionally so; they are built on stacks using technologies and approaches that have low cognitive load. It almost feels boring because of how easy it is to build on the stack and extend the stack without shooting yourself in the foot. A very practical example is something like Google Cloud Run vs Google Cloud Functions with Cloud Run being more flexible, easier to deploy, easier to work with, and easier to reason about. It's stupid simple and rather boring.

But besides the fact, dumb things are generally easier to unfuck than complicated things. Complicated things with many dependencies built on complicated stacks are much harder to untangle and refactor.

They are. But the more programs you write, the better you get at it.

It also helps to devise a personal architecture or two for different projects. I have some that I lean on, and that means I can bootstrap myself fairly quickly. It took a while to get there though.
As someone pointed out elsewhere in the thread, so can systemd, your service did what it was configured to do. If you want the service to stay up when netdev goes down, then don't tell systemd that netdev is a hard requirement for your service.

In my country they are indeed the most heavily taxed group indeed. Isn't that the case in the us too?

The reason I'm confused is that whenever I hear the "tax the reach" argument, i hear talking about the Musks, the Bezoses, the Buffets of the world, not my doctor or whatnot .

If the USA really taxes more the poor than somebody who makes 200k then you guys really have a problem, but that problem is mostly a communication problem

Look, you are doing what I've just said not to do. I have nothing to say because the OP did most of claims already, you should directly respond to the OP.

And you are slightly altering the very claim you've already said; the OP specificially tests the claim that "V compiles [...] ~1 million (x86 and tcc backends) lines of code per second per CPU core", which I can easily verify on my machine (1m_helloworld.v took 25.5 and 15.5 seconds to compile under the same settings). To be fair these test files are edge cases you can easily dismiss (ProTip: you can make your advertisements more accurate), but edge cases show the weakness of your design and you should not confront them.

Although this is a nice idea, it's extremely difficult to get it completely right.

Consider a SPA where navigation happens via xhr or similar requests and updates are json that's patched into the DOM. Even browsers have a hard time figuring out how to make this a coherent session.

Now with warc, you get a single record per transfer, i.e. every json file, every image, every css is an individual record. It's completely up to the client/downstream tech to re-assemble this into a coherent page.

If you want to go down that road, my best suggestion would be to start with a browser's history - that's probably the most solid version of a session that we have right now.

Please do! Fascinating all these stories.
Many countries are! Talent bonanza.
Totally agreed there. Also condition keys have such a high cognitive load; I can never ever remember the exact spelling of them or whether I need StringEqual or StringIsEqualIfExists or whatever other operator. The documentation has tons of prose about what service-specific keys to expect, but nearly 100% of the time when I'm trying to do something non-trivial with IAM, I end up finding the answer on somebody's blog rather than the documentation.

All of this because the policy language and featureset started off simple enough that it was reasonable to describe policies in json. I sort of wish that they would keep the existing policy stuff as-is but have an escape hatch that let us write lua (or JS or eBPF or something) as "policies", and charge us for the compute time.
Sorry, can you elaborate? Some things in the STL require compiler support, so you can't really "provide" an implementation in the narrow sense.

Also, how does providing a concrete/reference implementation prevent the API problems? Hyrum's law [0] means that you would make the situation worse because now people will depend on every detail you can think of. And if you want to improve the implementation in a new version, you now are (most likely) breaking ABI on every platform at once, instead of giving different platforms the ability to find compromises as needed. Just look at the recent "no ABI break in C++23" discussions to see how contentious that topic is.

To go even further, I find a saying attributed to Aristotle to be quite true: "Those who know, do. Those that understand, teach."

I find that true experts are able to explain subject matter in their domain simply, they can ably distill complicated issues to their essence lest their pupil be bogged down in unnecessary side-details. I used to think Raymond Hettinger was just an awesome teacher because he could make certain programming tasks seem like things a 3rd grader could do with ease, then I discovered he's a big force behind the creation of py and he just sees and presents things at a very fundamental level.
IIRC when I experienced this the logs were all in some binary format that couldn't easily be less'd. tbh I didn't do much investigation other than to see the "delete all your logs" resolution suggestion. There could have been a better option.
The number of governments that have not had to deal with ethics concerns is exactly zero.

Rather than drawing a broad hand-wavy link between ethics concerns and respect for privacy, you'd be much more accurate in measuring privacy by directly considering their practical legal frameworks that protect privacy.
