So I don't think I get your point. The stuff you've listed here just looks like stuff straight old Ops would do, set the parameters for Dev, and then things would just roll on. Saying "ops (or devops enablers)" like that is confusing me because the whole point of the original article (I thought) was to note that DevOps has basically become Ops, so what have we actually achieved?

i.e., that as soon as you distinguish between "devs" and "devops" people, you've basically already drawn a line between traditional dev and ops roles.
i would say it makes sense for a typed language, not sure if you can have it both in python. Why do they keep adding features upon features to the syntax of poor python? do they want to turn it into another kind of c++?
Assuming they read more than the title...
My guess--and I admit that it is just a guess--is that Amazon retail is only profitable if you have something unusual that you're selling, and the unusual aspect of it can be described by your potential buyers in words. As an example of something that can be described by words, I had a brass sextant on my wish-list (don't ask why), and a relative bought it for me recently; it was easy to find, didn't have to search through pages of hits, and was from what I suspect is a very small seller.

Otoh, I wanted to buy some sandals like the ones I had back in the <date omitted to hide old fogy's true age>. It appears there are 167 pages of hits for men's leather sandals, not enough ways to narrow the focus--and not all the hits are even sandals (some are ordinary shoes). Oddly, before I specified a size, it said there were 7 pages; when I told it my size, it jumped to 167 pages. (Go figure.) Worst, most are name brands; I can select name brands, but I can't say "anything but name brands." And while I said "men's" sandals in my search, women's sandals (labeled as such) are showing up.

In sum, Amazon does not make it easy to find small retailers' products, unless they're really niche products. (Books are different, because titles and authors are pretty unique.)
The reasoning still stands that two people will not always agree, and that difficult situations (medical) can exist in a relationship and reduce the viable options.

The issue is that with age your capacity to learn drops precipitously and you have to learn more and more on what you've already known, so there's great value in strategising your learning to build some skills that will be relevant in your later working years.
Not forbid, per se. Simply the theology of it was no longer considered to be grounded.

By curiosity, if a camera's body is just too impractical for a specific use, would it work with a body extension ?

I was thinking for instance about the extra grip that can be added on Canon/Nikon's middle range models that make them easier to manipulate for vertical shoots. While the top of the line comes built with grips in both directions, options exist for the smaller bodies.

Bladerunner was great and the sequel was also enjoyable.

but you know, these 80 sequels that have their characters stop and watch clips of the original movie are in the worst possible taste. it’s an admission that the current generation of directors are unable to compete w the former. this generation appears to be very much living in the shadows and riding the coattails of the last. it’s sad.

There's a trick here. I don't really want $1B. $2M is probably the max I'd need in my life. So I'd pay about max $0.99M.

> If you don't like the complexity of newer libraries and features, they're still optional aren't they?

Chances are you're not programming in a vacuum. These features will be used by third party libraries and you will have to read/understand this code.

Even in your in house codebase, there will always be co-workers that want to use these features.

The optionality of language features is not real. If they exist, they will be used, you will have to understand them, they will leak from other libraries, etc.

It can use less resources and can be faster than passing data between processes. There's really no reason to use multiple processes for IO-bound workloads, either, and even for some IO-bound workloads, a thread pool can be faster than processes.

The second you aren't just passing raw bytes around, you have to take into consideration what can and can't be sent between processes in Python, as some objects can't be pickled and thus can't be passed between processes.

You can concurrently load a lot more coroutines than processes and threads, as well.
I wonder if the "big on purpose" is because photographers got used to the size of previous generation cameras and would rather have a full-sized body to grip than the miniaturized technical wonders like the Sony APS-C cameras which, while highly capable cameras feel like well-built toys. I bought my a6400 because of the reviews on the eye-AF which is flat-out amazing. But I absolutely hate the feel of the body and wish I could have the electronics of an a7-III or a7-IV in the body of a Nikon D700... something that feels like it was designed by a photographer and not an electrical engineer with a specialty in compact design.

From the usability point of view the decision to enforce opening links in new tab violates one of the fundamental principles of the user interface design -- users should always be in control of the interface they are interacting with.

Depending on the context, it has its usability benefit and I have come to agreement with the later -- open in new tab (windows would still be no-no) but very selectively when the user need to stay on the page (filling up a form). I'm experimenting with opening all external links in a new tab on my personal website but I might just go back to not doing it.

I'm guessing the learnings from project loon are in play here.

The problem here is that for people like you, most of the time:

"Popular is NOT art",

it's this elitist attitude that "art" is above what is "popular" that I hate. We divide wealth into classes and now we have to divide tastes. Looks like your part of the 1%.

>> So I am not saying that a brute-forceable lock is not pickable
> You quite literally said it's not pickable and not even lockpicking at all

I think you have a problem with me communicating using (formal) logic.

If I say that A (lock is brute-forceable) is true, I am not making a statement on whether B (lock is pickable) is true: it could be either true or false. When I say that B is not true when A is, it means that B does not follow from A.

As an admittedly non-expert, I find it useless to consider something that's a tautology (always true, lock is bruteforceable) as a special skill (lock-picking), and I complain of the terminology. IOW, it is my personal opinion that this is a useless terminology if it's used like that.

> As far as I can determine, your opinion boils down to believing that successfully brute-forcing a lock with only 100 possible combinations does qualify as lockpicking

But I explicitly clarified my position, and you even quote that twice:

> but only when you are able to reduce the problem space from the full set of combinations would I say you are picking a lock.

Which means that a lock with 100 combinations, and you try all 100 of them, you are not lock picking, but if you reduce that to trying out 50 combinations, then you are (again, I hope I don't have to highlight how this is my opinion of the terminology: I am repeatedly claiming I am no authority, but I can still have an opinion on language, along with the argument I am presenting).

I apologize if my use of somewhat general language confuses you: my background in formal maths influences the way I communicate sometimes.

A peek into our template creation process
I largely agree with your sentiment: articles should educate, so it's important that the average reader ends up learning say in this case the dependency tree, i.e. knowledge that some species of organisms have the genetically coded skills to say fix nitrogen while others don't.

The problem is that for those who don't already know this, these article are typically not that educational, and that for those who already do, any potential advantage of these pigeon tower is not explicitly elucidated either.

For example I can come up with self-concocted explanations why this is senseless in the sense you describe: i.e. fundamentally the bird is not a nitrogen fixer, so it ate the fixed nitrogen compounds from which the compounds in its faeces derived.

On the other hand I can come up with explanations despite its not being a nitrogen fixer why it still might be a net positive decision: perhaps the land has some insect pests anyway (pigeon towers or not), so that having the pigeons around results in them eating predators of your crop, while recycling those predators into useful nitrogen compounds...

The problem is that I know its just a wild guess I make.

Ideally we would read an article and understand under which conditions the pigeon towers make a net positive versus a net negative.

I am not trying to take a dump on the article: I'd rather know such structures existed and know I don't fully understand when they make sense than to know nothing about it at all... understanding must start somewhere.

Telling developers to [do the ops team's job, the way the ops team would, assuming the ops people were actually doing their jobs and not just swamping the dev with weird high priority but boring bugs] is an extremely hard sell.

I greatly prefer it when the ops team tracks the time they spend on incidents, then stack ranks the ways in which my software sucks (in terms of hours of their time wasted), then asks me to fix it.

The same thing goes for $/perf discussions.

I don't care if they want to SCP or ftp or send my code over a QUIC tunnel through a bastion host on the moon.

If developers have to know there is a new or old way of doing that, then the CI/CD team has failed.

If you want me (the dev) to fix CI/CD, then I'll happily reimplement it with make and a fault tolerant NFS share. I'll even explain why that has been the best available approach since ~1985.

Tough to answer this directly, but the Lindy effect serves as a good guide. Things that are disproportionately old and still widely used are probably your best bet.

> in the operating system’s preferred representation

This is unfortunately misleading and a common misconception about OsStr. The documentation now explains:

> OsStr losslessly represents a borrowed reference to a platform string. However, this representation is not necessarily in a form native to the platform

What this means is that valid sequences of Unicode scalars are encoded as utf8 in OsStr on both Windows and Linux. The difference between OsStr and str is that the former can round-trip with the native encoding; that means that for Windows, there's a special way it encodes unpaired surrogates (wtf8) and on Linux it's actually just an arbitrary byte sequence.

This choice of representation means that on every platform: you can always borrow an OsStr from a str (as_ref) and you can sometimes borrow a str from an OsStr (to_str). This cross-borrowing wouldn't be possible if OsStr were UCS-2 on Windows.

You just described a hindsight bias. They key point here which has already been discussed above is “older you”.

You didnt have that information when you were young and your worldview is fluid.

The idea that you can operate with the same amount of information when you were young with your brain and social circles still in development is a fallacy in itself.

I did think the same way as you only to realize that my caring for intellectual and social stimulation was sparked due to its lack in the past.

You have no guarantee that you would develop it in the first place if you would have taken a different path.

This assumes that this was intended as a truly practical item. However, this is a product of a watch manufacturer. Its usefulness is also defined in social terms. It's an expensive novelty item, a status symbol, a conversation piece, an icebreaker, etc, then it's also a practical item. This one doesn't achieve these social functions by mechanical complications, a multitude of jewels or fine engravings by monk-like artisans, but by putting the product on the very forefront of modern technological development, something that would be hard to catch up on by more traditional watch manufacturers. It's also a contribution to the ever-ongoing competition between traditional mastery and modern inventiveness and the struggle for status. – That said, I love this product as a period piece.
