I don't think I can fully imagine; I prefer my ergonomic keyboard and massive monitor to be sure, so I dislike phone-first solutions (GRRR Whatsapp GRRR), or phone-priority design, and computers are definitely my hammer of choice.

But between Winnipeg winter storms and kids and experience of civil war and strife in a previous lifetime, mobile phones as a safety lifeline were a strong priority for me early in my life in late 90's; and then I was one of those nerdy guys with Palm Pilot (I used to read entire books... many many books... on a 320x320px screen - which is why I find it hilarious when people so righteously proclaim "Retina or bust" :), then Palm Treo then HTC G1 then Galaxy S2 and so on. I am too self-absorbed or something to worry about social media (I genuinely don't care what anybody else had for lunch or the cute picture of their cat or the latest copy pasted platitude that's 5 words but 3MB overcompressed JPEG grr!), so scrolling Facebook or twitter notification etc are not a real threat vector in a portable phone for me. Which is to say, I don't care one iota if anybody else has a portable phone or not, but I personally find it much too convenient; and I can see it impacting me if somebody else doesn't have a phone, not from status perspective but from practical perspective - there's a change of plans, but oh, Bob is still going to the CoolCafe and we can't tell him to meet us at the NiceRestaurant; or my tire is blown, how am I going to call anybody; etc. How do you handle stuff like that?

Yes, but that was neither my point nor the point of the person I replied to.

"Keep it simple and stupid" is a tried and true engineering principle. The higher tolerances a design uses, the easier it is to manufacture and to repair, and the less likely it is to fail from wear and tear in the first place.

A socialist economy, where waiting for a new car could take anywhere from five to twenty years (!), definitely has to prioritize simpler, more (fault-)tolerant designs even if that takes a bit more resources to account for said tolerance. For example, a modern car heavily using fibreglass and plastic in the chassis may weigh a good load less than your average Lada or whatever that was made out of metal, but it could easily be repaired by your average farmer using tools they had in their shed.

Random side fact, this is a major cause why farmers are paying record prices for tractors nearly half a century old [1]. Or why the Russians are currently using so much ages-old stuff in the Ukraine war - modern tanks require a lot of logistics for repair and spare parts, but these old Russian clunkers? You can piss into the tank and it will probably drive on it. (Yes, I know, the Russians haven't been maintaining their tanks properly, which is a major factor in why they were not able to take Kyiw)

The developer-first security angle is interesting – not sure if you include this in your categorization of security, but what I most frequently see SaaS companies / developers struggling with is data governance. For example, ensuring that they can comply with GDPR or CCPA deletion requests, store data in local geos, etc. A lot of this gets built by SaaS companies in-house.

The flexibility piece is different but comes up in sales more IME. Essentially every CRUD action in an enterprise SaaS app ought to be logged and accessible by API (which creates the same root problem of requiring a lot of developer time). But it manifests very differently in sales cycles from complying w/ GDPR:

* Regulatory compliance is often more of a box checking exercise for buyers (like SOC2)

* Having flexibility to log and manipulate everything via API is often a line-by-line evaluation of "can you meet X use case that we have for data integration" or "can you handle Y risk that we're worried about"

Good luck building Boxy!

It's understandable if you write the code for the program to understand. If it changes from deposits to credits tomorrow then your program breaks. Hence it's coupled to the server.

Except this taxation is supposedly going directly to spending on regular road maintenance. Which injects the funds directly back into the economy. Money supply isn’t changing here.

Even if it were, demand isn’t being reduced. They’re just forcing you to spend it on roads.
I hadn't thought about it, but yeah this headline captures it for sure.

The music / voice / connect construct of the spec seems to have improved this in the past few years so that it's possible in software to connect.

I downgraded from a flagship to a dirtpile phone, and now when I turn off Bluetooth from the Android Quick Settings, it turns itself back on exactly once, every. single. time.

Sending interactions is pretty reliable too for switching between devices. Pressing the call button on my car or my headphones signals my phone to instantly change audio contexts, but it's inconsistent, and some devices send "pause" signals at will.

It's probably an accident, but my car displays correct, up-to-date, scrubbing and metadata, and I can get audio from my ANC headphones at the same time.

Bottom line, I've seen the "Connect" button work, and there was even a Quick Settings panel listing paired devices for you to plug/unplug at your pleasure, but only if you've paid for an expensive phone.
I'm honestly wondering why software companies look into chips, especially ones with near to zero hardware experience. Can't they instead invest into optimization of software, or re-doing software for their specific need. Why don't we hear about new web-server, new filesystem, new kernel, et al, but hear about chips... Isn't the entry threshold for the chip industry is that low, or the benefits are that high?

The pyproject.toml is telling you what should work in terms of a range of package versions and the poetry.lock is telling you what my environment is in terms of exactly what is installed. You don't need the lock file, but without it there is no guarantee of what it will install so it may not be completely compatible.

Yes, those are choices.
French here.

My contract says that if on-calls are needed, I might have to be in the rotation. This clause increases my pay rate even if I'm not on-call.

If however I am actually on-call, I am paid more. And if the on-call rings, I'm again paid more on top of the on-call period. And as the French law mandates 11 consecutive hours of rest, if the on-call rings in the middle of the night, I'll usually come to work later the day after.

If you don't have advantages for being on-call, you're the one being taken advantage of.

I have a distinct feeling that neither of them have even the slightest clue what they are talking about. If they did understand processor design and had seen pages like this[0], they’d realize that a Goldmont cpu is not dramatically different from a other Intel cores and “microcoding” had virtually no bearing on “why it’s cheaper to make”. The real reasons it’s cheaper:

- only three instruction decoders

- max IPC of 3

- no AVX, AVX2, AVX512

- vector registers are limited to 128bit

- generally tops out below 2ghz as base clock with turbo boost into the mid 2s at best

- very basic integrated GPU on non-server versions running at 200-600mhz

Less registers, less IPC, lower clock frequencies, and less execution units = cheaper cost.

So explain how microcode had something to do with that again?

Well, so what is your post about? Make it work, then call back.
It may be motor noise but anecdotal evidence suggests that it happens even when the machines are off, eg on national holidays. Some kind of transmitter seems likely though. I know one construction site had analog video signals in the 2.4 Ghz range for their surveillance cameras. I accidentally found out when I did a range sweep on a video receiver for other reasons.

> Except for the thing about boys and divine pleasure that just about sounds like the founding of the United States to me.

That's probably not exactly true, but obviously universal-er suffrage has been a very long and fraught road. And it's undoubtedly very complex.

I would offer that the social and political norms of the early modern period do stand in contrast to those of Greece despite their obvious resemblance. As you point out at the founding of the US, the franchise was restricted (States were given the power to determine the franchise), and it wasn't until the early 20th century in the UK that land ownership rules were dropped (creating universal suffrage for males 21 and over).

At the same time, the social norms concerning marriage, pederasty, and slavery were also different. The religious background and perspective were utterly different. It is hard to imagine modern forms of representative democracy arising in Ancient Greece absent an intervention.

should impede it («Not all fonts installed on your computer are available to webpages»), but I am not sure, as I do not know the exact "which fonts to expose" rule.

Edit: in theory, it should allow only "«base»" fonts and not user installed. In practice, more details would be useful.
It's a common confusion, but when you contract with Google Cloud, the service is provided by "Google Cloud EMEA Limited, Ireland", which is an European company, and when they provide you with a datacenter in Europe they are totally an European company operating in Europe.

This is different for example to DigitalOcean LLC, that is a US-entity providing service to European customers (this example has to be verified, but that's what I remember).
Contemporary (mis)interpretation of 2A is relatively recent. Nothing is impossible in this realm.
For those who don't know, every 3db the energy is halved/doubled.

So at -10db the energy has been halved over 3 times.
One thing I understood a while ago is that any service claiming a lifetime license is it's either the lifetime of the product or the company, not the customer.

I tend to avoid it unless I'm fairly certain the product / company will last for longer than it would cost me per year of a subscription (to make sure my "investment" is worth it), and that I'll use it extensively.

Nothing is truely forever, and moreso in the world of software.
Absolutely none whatsoever.

Financial concerns didn’t weight at all on my mind when deciding to move here, so I can’t tell you if it’s better or worse.

I strongly doubt it’s better, especially for retirement, but I could be wrong.

So I’m not even sure why I’m arguing about cross border salaries or retirement benefits…
> Just a better alternative that fits all the evidence.

This is the problem. There is a real possibility that what is "really" going on only fits some of the evidence and there are other phenomena at play. The explanatory power of "unseeable distribution of arbitrary matter" is dangerously high.
Or dad.
I use Chrome Remote Desktop for personal use, works well enough for me.
This is a distinction that will be increasingly lost on EU regulators, more so than it already is today.
IMHO, extremely low. The DMA has passed final debate and review, so it's not changing now. The last step is basically a formality. The beauty of the EU is that corporate financial influence is far less pervasive than even in the governments of member nations. The level of abstraction is just too large. Apple, Google, Amazon, et al., can wage a PR campaign, but it's highly unlikely to succeed.
Its not a silly concept, but that render is a bit off.

If you want a ground effect plane, then you need your wings much closer to the floor. that plane looks like you'd need to be operating in really calm weather or not at all.

Also, I suspect that tail is nowhere near big enough, as its operating outside of ground effect.
Welp.
Let me put it somewhere else.

Crazy, in a way, that it wasn't already this way from the beginning.
If we revamp the fuel duty tax, why not introduce a carbon tax to pay for the impact of CO2 emissions on climate? This would make the fuel duty tax insignificant (the cost of climate change is more or less infinite now, given the current trends).

Then, we can rethink the whole system and realize road-based transportation with private cars is not sustainable. And then, we can forget about fuel duty / energy tax because we have whole societies to redesign :)
So far there is nothing saying old models are wrong. Only the mainstream dark matter hypotheses that matches all the evidence is some type of particle that is not interacting.

The difficulty is in detecting. Weakly interacting massive particles are by definition hard to detect directly.

MaCHOs, modified gravity etc. match some, never all the evidence.
I don't believe regular expressions are difficult, at least compared to structures that are a step up in expressiveness such as parser generators.

The ergonomic problems of parser generators are worth quite a bit of analysis, but the basic difference is that people can learn how to use regular expressions without understanding how regexes are implemented but practically you have to know how parser generators work to use a parser generator. Anybody who can write a parser generator can easily work around the things that are difficult with parser generators.

Yes, this approach has been implemented by many companies. But those plugins' use scope is limited to a company tool. What that folk did is expanded this approach to the 'any app' level.
It’s the same playbook. They hire ultra aggressive folks to sell because it’s hard to rip out.

Oracle eventually faded in relevance similar to IBM. So will Mongo. It will be around as a relic living by auditing the installed base.

I'm not saying every interaction has gone this way, but it's happened more than a couple times (over the course of... 15+ years).

The last interaction I had like this was a few years ago - someone had done lots of mockups in... figma (but it wasn't figma - I can't remember the tool, but it was relatively well-known). I had 100+ "screens" with example text/input/labels on every screen.

These were done by an agency, then handed off, and... there were multiple people who had worked on it. Screens/slides 1-40 had some font label in 12px, slides 41-95 were at 13px, and the rest were at 14px.

I pointed this out, and kept getting told "stop deviating - we've already approved these - we've spent weeks going over all of these - stop thinking you know better than an award-winning design agency!"

Making screen 41 and 40 look the same was "deviating" because someone reviewing "41" against the mockup was 'wrong'. So... I made each screen with same fonts as the mockups.

Two weeks later, in some review, someone 'complained' because jumping through all the screens, the font sizes kept changing. I pointed out this was exactly the same behaviour as jumping through all the mockups, sequentially. It was obvious, but ... it was only getting reviewed holistically weeks after everything was 'approved'.

Probably the worse 'designer-led' experience I've had, but a couple others have come close (just not as stretched out). But it reinforced that the 'design' portion really needs to be involved and iterative (and... they need to be open to feedback just as much as I have to be).
No one is going to waste the CPU time running Stockfish (or GPU with Leela) against each other at classical time controls long enough to see a decisive game which might never happen anyway so we will likely never know. I think current Stockfish on a modern ThreadRipper with classical time control will never be beaten. I am not 100% sure I am right but I don't expect (but would love to!) to be proven wrong.
Completely absence from this are the loss due to lower Benefit in Kind (BIK) for Electric vehicles, and First Year Allowances for EV purchases. Driving an EV means only paying 1-2% per year tax compared to 30-40% for a locally polluting vehicles. First Year allowances mean you claim back 100% of the cost of the EV to offset any taxable income.

These business rates mean owning an EV outright as a normal employee is very dumb. Would you rather pay £300 per month for a PCP on a Zoe, or £150 a month for a Taycan as a company car?
To lessen font enumeration attacks in Firefox, you can go to about:config and make sure privacy.resistFingerprinting is set to True.
Git branch is actually very similar to git tag[1]. For example, there are commands to point branch to completely different commit in different section of the commit graph, just like you can do it with tags.

[1] The main difference perhaps is that, if you create a new commit, the branch pointer will actually be moved to point to that latest commit (while tag stays fixed).
Occam demands not to dig deeper than it should be enough.

Bunch of people, who lives in the deeps of an agrarian country (and TV isn't available yet), sees something extremely out of regular order of things. And that is coming for them! Of course they would be afraid of this totally unfamiliar experience.

Some notes:

I'm not sure how far those people were from the point where Gagarin ejected, but they probably heard some strange sounds before the encounter.

Parachutes were a known thing by that time, though if you never seen it on the ground before you probably wouldn't recognize it as such.

Pilots were still flying in a pilot's flight gear[0], at least in the collective consciousness. Someone/something in a big round helmet and a bright orange suit doesn't register as a pilot's flight gear nor as something have seen before. You can see how (a decade before) some people perceived the "space suits", unsurprisingly - just a like a winter soldier gear. *grin*

By the '60s the understanding on how a space suit should look emerge, but it still was quite off the real deal: [2] (Be sure to check mini-Godzillas attack at ~1:00!)

As you can see [3] there were a bright red CCCP label on his helmet. Looks like that didn't helped much.

Ring also provides a persistent delivery check to cut down on fraud/theft. Not sure if you’ve seen it, but there’s internet video of a delivery driver setting the package down, taking a picture, and then picking it back up. With Ring, you can now monitor delivery drivers like the warehouse workers.
Successful execution.

One way of dealing with deadlines is fine-grained planning in the short term. You might not be able to plan 5 months in advance but if you can plan the next 5 days you can demonstrate competence in planning.

My read on the situation is that Magnus had two goals:

1) remain world champion

2) get to 2900 elo

#1 got in the way of #2 because all the elite grandmasters constantly focus throughout the year on preparing for Magnus, which creates a headwind in the non-world champion tournaments where he must perform well to reach 2900.

My guess is he will focus on 2900. Then, come back as world champion. Then, retire after 7 championships or his performance deteriorates.
