Maybe. But usually that means you spend more time at work. I have two family members with medical issues, so we hit the out of pocket max in medical bills every year (and possibly more due to some things being coded incorrectly and nobody being able to fix it).

Then there's the fact that you need concensus for things. Like can we move to another area? No, wife doesn't want to ever leave the county. Should buy an unaffordable house? No, that's financial suicide. Wife wants another kid, but also complains that I don't do enough (not going into it, but she's way off base). I don't want another kid due to all that I have to do for the current one and her (she needs help with many things).

In theory, we could each pretty much decide these things unilaterally. In practice, that's likely to result in divorce even if we have more money.
At 39 weeks the woman has known she has been pregnant for some time and intends to keep the baby. If an abortion happens at this point, it's an incredibly traumatic experience because something with the pregnancy has gone extremely wrong. You present a useless hypothetical that does nothing to advance the conversation. You're repeating a useless point that does nothing besides distract from the issues of the bodily autonomy of women, its disingenuous
There are plenty of reasons not to steal and extort, like personal ethics or a fear of getting caught. If it were easier to mine than steal or extort, gangs would be running mining operations instead of wasting their time with theft and ransomware. A hostile cyber army would need mining to be twice as effective at raising funds as theft or ransomware, since stealing 1 BTC drains your reserves and adds to theirs, whereas mining only adds to theirs.

> Such is the nature of the Bitcoin game.

I assume from this sentence in your comment and from your bio ("Character account — I only play a Bitcoin maximalist on the internet") that this is just performance art/trolling for you, so I'll wrap up my end of the discussion here.
There are plenty of things short of significant risk that would be useful to have a professional legal opinion on.

You are also making the faulty assumption that policy has sufficient coverage to avoid ambiguities and cover all events. It doesn't. Something not particularly risky, not covered by policy, but touching on a legal matter are not uncommon.

Your comment is rather strange in fact given the actual linked article's example.

Typically a woman will miss a period and take a pregnancy test. Because menstruation cycles are variable, it may be up to a week after her usual time when she tests and finds out she's pregnant. Healthcare professionals typically count weeks of pregnancy by your last period. The first day of the last period marks the beginning of the first week of pregnancy. By the very first day of a missed period, a woman is already considered 4 weeks pregnant.[1] So, five weeks or more.

Why do you ask?

Brilliant stuff. Isn't the XORing essentially just equivalent to a 1-time pad -- which isn't very hash-like. I'd think using a PRNG [1] with the initial hash value as the seed, to generate more values, would be more effective.

> I can't see the need for dedicated DevOps resources going away any time soon.

But is what you're describing just.... "ops" without any of the "dev"? I'm not saying that there is not a need for dedicated infrastructure and operations teams at a certain size (and in some industries), but that's not an excuse for devs to feel like they can chuck a new feature over the wall and say "Well, I'm done my job. Please run it and make sure it doesn't break".

Mechanical Keyboards Are Over, This Device Has Won
Devops is a failure only when you have the wrong people on the job. Which is nearly all the time because only 1 in 20 engineers has the ability to do both operational and development work to a standard high enough not to put your organisation at risk.

If you have several of those 1 in 20 people they will self organise into a methodology which roughly resembles it.
"Full stack developer" is a failure as well, which overlaps with DevOps. A very small percentage of developers are capable of this.

I still don’t really see the need to wake up every 4ms when all processes are suspended or killed.

Just halt the CPU permanently until the next interrupt.

4ms interrupts are only needed when there are multiple active threads that need preempting.
Yeah, one of the most problematic views indeed. "Don't touch the Lord's anointed ones" is a mandate commonly used for religious leaders to discourage any sort of criticism of their actions.

Sorry you are having issues, but I have found the support for multiple monitors to be great all the way back to a Mac IIci I got in 1989. At the moment I am running a 16" M1 MB Pro with an LG 5K over Thunderbolt. It finds the monitor and puts my spaces back to the right monitors every time I plug it in. It sleeps and wakes from sleep with no issues.

I have had Macs for over 30 years and never experienced these kinds of issues and have used laptops with external monitors (except for some random issues while running beta system software). I have to believe there is something about your software environment that is different. I hope you find the issue, but I can tell you from a large office full of Macs and my own personal experience that your situation is not typical. Good luck.

We need a new secular code-society, where we separate code from personal beliefs, and assign "societal points" only by merit.

2005: your infrastructure is automated using a handful of Bash, Perl and Python scripts written by two system administrators. They are custom, sometimes brittle and get rewritten every 5 years.

2022: your infrastructure is automated using 10 extremely complex devops tools. You automated the two system administrators away - but then had to hire 5 DevOps engineers paid 2x more. The total complexity is 10x.

They wrote YAML, TOML, plus Ansible, Pulumi, Terraform scripts. They are custom, sometimes brittle and get rewritten every 3 years.

EDIT: to the people claiming that today's infra does more things... No, I'm comparing stuff with the same levels of availability, same deployment times, same security updates.
I've decided "full stack" is just the 21st century was what we called "web developer" in the 20th, which usually mean "one person doing the work of two or three". Except now the expectation is to know a lot more.

I don't understand why people are so interested over this question? Why does it matter? We are going to explore the hell out of these systems whether they are sentient or not.

Major shifts won't happen all that quickly. You'll see them coming and have time to adapt and learn new things. There is generally also a long tail of companies that are slow to move that still need support.

The main thing I think about for future proofing isn't related to skills, but rather data. What file formats should I use to ensure I can still get access to me data a couple decades from now. When I was young my dad told me to use rtf for the papers I wrote, so I could open them anywhere, but I can't open those anymore on modern systems (or the files or corrupt). My thought is to use text files or markdown wherever and whenever possible, but then there is a question of ease of use. How much time will I spend trying to maintain a text based system vs just having to spend a few hours migrating every 5-10 years if there is a big shift in where/how I'm looking to store my data.
Same with their USB-C Pro dock, that is TB3 but works well on USB-C too. 2x4k@60Hz over TB3 and 2x1080P@60Hz over USB-C if on another machine. It charges well enough to not worry either. But again, yeah that recognition time is terrible on the same machine mostly(2020 MB Pro 16" Intel with the 8GB ATI)
I had a professor in college who was obsessed with Blade Runner and had us watch it in class. I just didn't get it. I mean I love sci-fi, but Blade Runner was just OK. Maybe in the context of its time it was great, pioneering, all that stuff. But in the context of now, or even back when I was in college (closer to the release of Blade Runner than present day, yikes), it didn't seem that special to me.

I guess now that I have kids I'll soon be on the other side trying to convince them that the old stuff I like is cool and special, and they'll prefer the new stuff.
That's really a non-sequiteur. The alternative to being critical of state and media propaganda is not the same as retiring from society altogether.
I don't think there's anything bad with gaming in your free time - at any age. In the end, why shouldn't one just enjoy whatever life's possibilities are? It's obviously important to keep all other areas of life under control, but what's bad about enjoying doing something - even if it's not productive - especially when you're young. This is quite philosphical, but I've found the idea of optimistic nihilism very helpful for having an overall more relaxed view on life https://you.com/search?q=optimistic+nihilism

It's not just the outlier beliefs about sentience though, the man clearly did not understand how these models work. There's parts of the conversation where he seems to think he has taught the system 'transcendental meditation', which is nonsensical given that these transformer models don't learn interactively through individual conversation but are trained on sets of data, and they don't do anything unless you query them.

It's not like Lambda sits around and ponders the nature of the universe when you're not talking to it.
I use an inexpensive USB dock with a single HDMI port for my M1 air, on a single 27 inch 4K monitor. It works with a single port and also provides gigabit network and power, and works at 60Hz.

It’s one that supports DisplayPort 1.4 for the link between the laptop, so it can fit 4k60 over the available lanes, but then HDMI to the display. There are many like it, but this is mine: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08SLS9W72 - the internal DP1.4 support is essential and relatively new.

Some more here about that, https://dancharblog.wordpress.com/2021/01/03/4k60-monitor-pl...

I’ve found that if I use it with a USB extension cable it works, but my wireless mouse stops working reliably - even on other computers. I think the extension cable throws off interference in the 2.4Ghz range. Apart from that, no issues.
With classic search engine indexing you can find and remove exact matches from the index, but with neural networks it's harder to make sure you removed every representation of a specific information from the parameters.
For example you remove somehow the exact username-name from the model parameters ( that doesn't seems to hard at first) but then it may still return the information if somebody ask the model differently.

So if you try to remove the information from a neural network model then it can still have it in different forms you may not even think of, for example in language models the same thing described with different words.

And on the other hand removing one thing may affect the models performance on other unrelated things too.
I wouldn't put automatic transmission in the same bucket as touchscreen buttons and whatnot. The former makes the life more convenient for the driver. The latter makes the life more convenient for the manufacturer and less convenient to the point of danger for the driver.
For those curious about terminology who like me may not know, the tail in 'long tail' does not refer to tail of a probability density/mass function, but rather the tail of a rank-size distribution which is closer to a (reversed) quantile function:

From a developer's point of view, it seems to me like the dominance of cloud and containers forced the change to devops. Hitherto your org would have a CM team and a separate group of admins/Ops for your deployment infrastructure. Much of it was manually done (follow procedure docs rather than scripting) and software released on a slower cadence.

So at the risk of seeing the past with rose-colored glasses, I'd say things were more straight-forward, less reproducible, slower, and (for developers) simpler.
So, if we allow people to live closer together there will somehow be less space?

Let me speedrun for you the results of all these technical "solutions" to the quite real biological problem - after banning for yourself "fancy_thing_A" you will get distracted on the "fancy_thing_B" and so on and so on. It is literally impossible to run out of thing to distract you. At various points in my life I was distracted reading some absolutely shitty and uninteresting books, reading an introduction tutorial to the absolutely unnecessary tech for me at that time, watching a very interesting and educational video, cleaning years old stuff in the storage, organizing Documents dir on the laptop, sharpening a knife, writing a todo list (the fiftieth one), and so on.

PS: I don't know a solution. Maybe meds, people suggest visiting a doc, but since I'm a professional at distractions I've yet to try it.

The Contributor Covenant is the gold standard for a reason: it is a response to the bigotry and harassment problems that were endemic to the open source communities. Alone it doesn't achieve much, but combined with a good faith enforcement board it helps keep a community a pleasant, joyful place to contribute to, for everyone. And that will increase software quality and attract quality people, aside from being, you know, the right thing to do.

The SQLite developers (developer?) are not interested in inviting more contributors to the table and that's fine, but for a functional public community the Contributor Covenant or something like it is pretty much table stakes.
> But for some reason companies seem to love the term.

It's possible that I'm just getting very pessimistic, but at this point I'm fairly confident that companies love it because it makes it way easier to attract candidates and describe one set of responsibilities/position in an interview process, and then bait-and-switch it into what is effectively a systems administrator role.
Corporations and accountable? Those things all too often don't belong into the same sentence in Western societies. Individuals get into prison all the time for transgressions much more minor than what corporations can get away with just by paying often a ridiculous fine. I'd say that individuals are much more beholden to accountability.
Agreed.

I think the key here is the regret. Is playing games alone, or with friends really that much different from some other activity, such as traveling, alone, or with friends? Sure you learn while traveling, but also get good at gaming the more you do it. You can even substitute traveling with some other hobby (playing the guitar, building legos, etc). Some may argue that the guitar is a "useful" skill but I'd argue that gaming can be a useful skill in the same sense.
I made a library in which state management started the same way. A simple approach is great for performance-sensitive parts and it's easy to write, but there is very little helpful structure to it. Reactivity fails very easily, consider a dependency graph like this:
a -> b
a -> c
b,c -> d
In this case, updating `a` would cause d to be calculated (and reactions run) twice. Also, update batching is absolutely necessary for anything non-trivial.

At least for what I made, I don't think it's too complex for what it provides. It transparently integrates with the event loop and only runs what it needs to, at the cost of (min-brotli) 432 bytes at the moment.

I think devops means something here, sysops would be about running infrastructure not dev infrastructure, devops would focus on producing dev envs, test envs, CI/CD. Not just setting up the runtime hardware / os configuration.

Yeah, I'm aware that old auto transmissions had what - valve bodies? - analog computers to apply logic on when to shift; they'd have to have something. I just don't think the linkage was all that important a feature - mechanical or electronic seem to both be flexible enough to do the job. I mostly drive manuals, but the column shifter for autos seems the most utterly logical way to put transmission control right at your hands. It seems like putting it on top of where a transmission hump might go (but probably doesn't in a modern car with a transverse engine) is just pretending to be something it isn't.
The main problem I see with DevOps is that it has become a dedicated profession.
