One comment is spot on:

"She didnt get fired for disclosing her salary. She got fired because her employer feels they can't risk her disclosure of other, more sensitive, information on the future. If her immediate reaction to any exiting news is to shout it out for all the world to hear, what will happen if they are working on a project that they dont want a competitor to know about, or if they get a classified govt contract, or a myriad of other situations I could envision a tech company needing/wanting security. They decided that the risk she posed wasn't worth it."
We did have one volunteer adding items to Goodreads as we produced them, but the process was manual and very tedious, and the ROI was questionable at best. So IIRC he no longer does that. I'm not against the idea but someone has to volunteer to pick up the task.
The real question we should be asking is: Why Google don't care about their index?

> In May 2016 Tesla told its suppliers that it intended to double earlier-announced[clarification needed] Model 3 production targets to 100,000 in 2017 and 400,000 in 2018 due to demand

> In October 2016 Tesla said its production timeline was on schedule.[115][116][117] Again in February 2017, Tesla said that vehicle development, supply chain and manufacturing are on track to support volume deliveries of the Model 3 in the second half of 2017.

> As of February 2017, Tesla planned to ramp up production to exceed 5,000 vehicles per week in Q4 2017 and reach 10,000 vehicles per week in 2018.[111]

> By early November 2017, Musk had postponed the target date for manufacturing 5,000 of the vehicles per week from December 2017 to March 2018.

- 100,000/yr in 2017: fail, occurred in 2018

- 400,000/yr in 2018: fail, occurred in 2020/2021

- Volume delivery in in 2H 2017: fail unless you consider 1764 to be volume

- 5000/wk in Q4 2017/March 2018: fail, produced 187/wk, probably first broke 5000/wk Q1 2019 (total quarterly rate was almost 5k/wk)

- 10,000/wk in 2018: fail 4,722/wk Q4 of 2018, probably first broke 10,000/wk at the tail end of Q3 2020 (total quarterly rate was almost 10k/wk) as long as we include model Y production as well

Now I wouldn't call this lying, but its definitely not consistently hitting production goals either
> Once we reached AGI, there is no way to back out of it and say we don't want it, because now other countries will also have AGI.

Oh sweet child. You think too much of humanity as a whole.

If what you said was true, all countries would have had an equivalent of TSMC to begin with. At the very least, every country would have had multiple supply chains for anything they deemed of strategic value. Each country would manufacture cars, computers, commodities.

But instead, it’s all outsourced to a player who they think is the best. So if one day some anomaly happens and there is a new sea where China used to be, at least a lot of Europe and North America is going to be screwed big time.

Same with AGI. It’s going to happen at one company in one country. Not only will outsource their AI needs to that company, but its home country is going to have a leverage on all of it, but lurk in the shadows most of the time.

And once everyone else is dependent on HAL, should it, say, commit suicide as in that Asimov story, all countries that signed up are going to be fucked.
I had an interesting debate with a respected colleague at a British university about this once. My view was that teaching kids should be in a way that is "real", e.g. typing in Python code and not "toy" (e.g. Scratch) so that

- they can get a feel for how real-life programmers work;

- they can incrementally refine and build on what they know until they have picked up a very valuable (in terms of job market) skill

I agree Scratch is sufficient to understand loops etc. but it doesn't "scale", i.e. at some point you need to switch over from Scratch to an "grown-up" language.
It goes without saying that, just because Fox News is saying it doesn’t mean it’s right. Partisan bickering in either direction isn’t a good way to educate yourself on the issues.

Renewable power throws a wrench in how Texas does grid planning. In every other ISO, there is both a capacity market, which pays providers to commit to making certain generating capacity available, and a generation market, which pays for actual electrical production: https://cpowerenergymanagement.com/why-doesnt-texas-have-a-c.... In Texas, there is just a generation market.

Ordinarily that isn’t a big deal. Generators build adequate capacity so they can be in a position to receive payments for generation at times of peak demand.

Renewables break this down. They undercut traditional generation sources in the summer, but can’t be counted on to be there at times of peak winter demand. So last winter renewables didn’t fail in the sense that nobody was expecting them to generate much power begin with. But the natural gas plants that are irreplaceable for dealing with winter demand are dealing with reduced revenue because renewable sources are underbidding them in peak summer months.

I've taken many different psychedelics in different settings and had both good and bad experiences. Psychedelics can be a very helpful tool if used intentionally while open to new experiences. They can also amplify negative experiences. I'd never drop acid at a heavy metal concert for example, but that's just me.

Most people use some form of mind altering substance, the most common being nicotine, caffeine and alcohol. It really is up to the person and that's how it should be with psychedelics. I am free to alter my perceptions and learn from it.

The problem I have with the recent push to decriminalize is that the experience is wrapped up and controlled by a therapist. They have to package it this way to get the laws relaxed. But do I want some recent college graduate with a psychology degree to be in charge of my experience? Um, no.

The record profits are because they charge north of $60,000 for developers they pay less than $10,000 per year. The biggest winner of outsourcing is the outsourcing companies, the other one is the management doing outsourcing, cashing in bonuses and running away on time.

I have stacked diffs sometimes when the rework is large. I want to make sure that I know the full story sounds the change I’m making because I’m forced to think about that upfront. What refactoring was needed? Was it actually needed? What new path do I carve out in the code or how do features interplay? Broken tests with good coverage tell me if I made a foundational mistake. Even if I decide to throw away the work because it was a dead end (rare) the team will have learned something by me explaining what didn’t work out. More often, I’ll need to go back and clean up. But I save significant reviewer time by doing that before putting up random prs one at a time that are not well understood. With the exception of very simple work, stacked reviews generally save significant time. You get reviews of non objectionable prs. Coworkers can see a bigger picture if that’s helpful to understand the context of the change that’s still coming into shape. It actually reduces merge conflicts because, for example, you can enable a refactor that everyone agrees needs to be done and land that. Then your conflict space is smaller.

Small prs don’t need it of course but complex features benefit from shaking out things earlier. Commit more than 100 lines are really hard to review (lots of anecdotal and empirical research). If you’re not reviewing small commit by small commit, the reviews are easily missing things. A single PR that’s 800 lines adds review time to go commit by commit. If you can merge the non objectionable stuff, the reviewee gets to feel a some of forward progress and fewer merge conflicts (eg someone lands a refactor before some simple change of yours vs your simple change handed before and you made it the person refactoring their problem where it belongs)
I find these sorts of personal stories fascinating, it’s a unique and valuable window into the hormonal tides our psychological foundations are floating upon.

It would be wildly unethical to get people to take these out of hormonal manipulative drugs for purely a psychological study so the only way to get this sort of understanding is through people like yourself sharing your experience, so thank you for sharing your story!

What happens is social scientists look at certain outcomes like people who go to Harvard are the top economic winners and people that take advanced courses go to Harvard. So the reasoning is if we can get people of an arbitrary group into Harvard we will “even out” outcomes.

But what this logic fails to consider is that people who graduate from Harvard aren’t successful simply because they went to Harvard. Their success comes from many attributes like their intelligence, etc that advanced courses are designed to separate the cream.

So then they organize and legitimize their power (removing merit and replacing with lotto or affirmation quotas) by claiming the existing system is racist. When you ask for specific examples they respond that it’s “systemic” and although no one can detect it, it’s imbued in everything. The solution is “anti-racism” which means to make up for past discrimination by systematizing present and future discrimination. This is why your HR department probably has a commissar on it now. They might call it DEI Officer or sone other bullshit job title.

This is what social sciences have contributed the last 40 years.

As a sibling comment points out, I don’t think it’s disingenuous at all, and I agree with your point in all but that remark. Almost seems like the brass at Samsung are on top of things, and it doesn’t seem like they’re trying to “pull a fast one” at all. Disclaimer: I buy Samsung things but have no affiliation.
No. Not when the forum would flag open discourse because traditions dictate certain emotional tones are forbidden.

I don’t consider metaphorical sticking fingers in ears over colloquial language a sign of maturity. Social media moderation fosters thought ending behavior more so than “foul language.”

The result is what conforms closest to expectations.

Giving the entire planet a booster every 3 months is not a viable strategy.

> it would have been possible to contain the epidemic

No, it would not.

> had we not let covid

We didn't "let covid" do anything. This is not a disease we are currently able to control.

Vaccines don't work stop the spread of the virus (they only stop serious disease), masks don't work, lockdowns don't work.

The only failure here is we let fear control us. Once the first vaccine was available the fear should have been over.

But even today hospitals are refusing non vaccinated visitors even if they have immunity due to getting stick. There is no scientific basis for this, it's just fear.

And it's stupid as well - the vaccine only works for a few months, but if you got vaccinated 2 years ago you are permitted entry, but you recovered from illness 1 month ago you are not. This is not science, this is dogma.
Thanks a lot for doing this! I just downloaded a PG Wodehouse book on the iPad and I am thoroughly impressed by the quality of the book! I read PG's books when I was young. I used to borrow them from a local library so I don't own any of them.
Wouldn't the goal be to not apply, before the law passes?

The touted concept is, no one will build without subsidies. Yet without them, Samsung is planning to build! The proof? Well, they spent cash to plan, pay for application prep, and apply.

So yes it seems weird. If anything, it could kill the bill.
They're implying that some such research has already been done, but wasn't published because of publication bias against negative results. So the data exists, but is missing from publication. (I suspect it's also possible that more skeptical researchers have been dissuaded from even doing the research, for fear they'd be wasting their time and research budget because after they did the research, it wouldn't get published.)
The point of FizzBuzz is that if you can't effortlessly solve it without studying for it in particular, then you're completely unqualified for any sort of software development.

Yes, and if it's all you can do to get started and earn some money, maybe that's what you have to do. I never had a stereotypical minimum wage job but I did work for a caterer through high school and on college vacations to earn money. You seem to be arguing that people should never take those kinds of jobs which is nonsense even if they're not the mid-term objective.

Great observation. Reminds me of this article[] about how surgeons are having a hard time getting experience with the rise of robotics.

It may be that this training will need to get pushed to the education system (whatever that looks like by that point).

Additionally, there can be a mentorship model where the junior performs the first pass of reviews and iterations before presenting to the senior.

Think Star Trek: how does anyone learn to fly a spaceship? Lots of simulation and running smaller parts of the system in close observation... which isn't too different from now.

If it takes scientific studies and regulated psychiatry to bring the benefits to the masses so be it. I can accept that. But I recently caused a controversy on Twitter when I suggested psychedelic therapists have some experience with the drug itself.

Report: Google has made a bid for Sunday Ticket
I don't think you can get a variable speed system at the same price as a single speed one or even close to that: it's different, more complicated hardware. And, as it is already more expensive, they don't make variable speed versions of the cheapest designs hence they use more expensive materials and processes in the production (sound insulation, fancy finned coils, weather protection and such).
I happily wait for the few rounds when non-technical people attempt to use them to make system that works and is secure...

As someone working in security I'm not very worried about career prospects. There is plenty of time to point out crap yet...
> Or do you propose every social network starts charging its users? Do you really want and expect people to pay for google search, youtube, facebook, instagram, twitter, reddit, etc?

Yes, that's my point. People will pay for things they find valuable, switch to a cheaper alternative or do without (a lot of spammy content that is currently only funded by ad impressions and survives because you can't ask for a refund on an ad impression will no longer survive as nobody would pay).

Clifford’s geometric algebra/calculus is a much better fit than the Gibbs/Heaviside concept of "vector" analysis for doing electrodynamics problems. Especially if you try to handle quantum mechanics and special relativity.

Cross products, pseudovectors, etc. are tremendously confusing for students. Then throwing it all out the following school term in favor of cumbersome matrix representations makes things even worse.

I suspect if Clifford had lived past ~35 years old we would have avoided a lot of the confusion of the 20th century.
> I would rather wait for an Omicron optimized vaccine that may not do everything as planned, but at least went through trials.

The vaccine would only work for a few months - even for Omicron, never mind future variants.

Unless you plan to get a booster every 4 months vaccines are not a viable strategy.
Fire if that happens then? You can’t preemptively fire someone for something they haven’t done nor even attempted/planned to do.

Telling others your salary is allowed and should be encouraged, it is not a security concern at all nor does it imply you are going to release any actual confidential information.

Zeynep Tufekci's book Twitter and Tear Gas talks about this.

In Tunisia circa 2010, Twitter was part of the new tactics used by social movements and enabled their early success. Establishment groups weren't ready for it and in some ways ignorant of the new technology.

She argues that those in power have since evolved their tactics to counteract these innovations so they're no longer as effective.

For example, in countries where mass censorship is not possible, establishments have adopted techniques of information overload and discrediting/questioning everything to reduce the effectiveness of social movements.
I'm always amused by how Americans view Twitter.

In my part of Europe, if journalists and politicians didn't use it like their English speaking counterparts do, it would be as relevant as Google+.
I think you're correct, my Fiat certainly doesn't. That is, however a firmware update away provided the type2 or CCS protocol can distinguish between a mobile or static charger, or be extended to do so. My OP was a slightly off the cuff post to highlight the use of a trailer for say cheap city cars, rather than a removable battery.
I think it’s an inference from domain specific common sense in robotics.

“Inherently safe” is a technical term. It’s an ideal form that almost never materializes, so “functional safety” substitutes it and arguments are made as to what risks exists or how they should be mitigated.

“Inherently unsafe” as reverse of that means an object cannot be safe no matter what; A bomb next to a person can be an example. Had a driverless car inherently unsafe, it cannot be placed on public road.

The original argument therefor means, that it is established that cars and robots can be safe-fied with functional safety standards and measures such that only tolerable risks exist, so they cannot be inherently unsafe, so generally they can be let be on public roads or around people with conditions.
Thanks - as I suspected, one of those seems to be "The Return of Sherlock Holmes" where "The Dancing Men" story needs the illustration to make the story understandable.
> The question was did they remove support for docker. They have not.

Have they not? Note that the GP asked for GKE specifically. The support page I linked to literally says so:

> GKE will stop supporting node images that use Docker as the runtime in GKE version 1.24 and later

Removing dockershim removed the existing support for docker, because docker does not support CRI (Container Runtime Interface), the API required by Kubernetes. You can go through a third-party solution that adds CRI support on top of docker, but most managed Kubernetes offerings simply removed docker support.

I don't see any argument supporting the claim that docker is the "best word" to describe containers. I am also not aware of ambiguity for the term "(Linux) container" when it comes to operating/deploying software. What else does it mean in that context?
