Funny. From a "business" point of view the original decision may have been better (but evil). However the CEO made a decision for the business for his personal convenience.

I have seen this done before where we were forced to use technology that would support both Mac and Windows because the CTO had a Mac (and that was the only reason). So Silverlight it was :-/. Yes you can guess the year probably!
I'm pretty hesitant to use ZeroMQ for anything anymore. I was digging into what using ZeroMQ might look like in Rust and ran across a pretty interesting issue that eventually made me decide to drop it for AMQP - https://github.com/jean-airoldie/libzmq-rs/issues/125#issuec...
Back around 2009 when Facebook was first becoming ascendant, people wondered if social networks were generational. I.e., would each younger generation be willing to use the same social network as their parents?

I think the de facto surrender of Facebook to TikTok here is evidence that social networks ARE generational. That implies that TikTok may reign supreme for about 20 years, but thereabouts, they'll have to contend with yet another rising challenger.

This thread makes me wonder if the root of the problem is actually the lack of a local runner. I hypothesize that it's the length of the feedback loop that's the real issue.

Even if we had a local runner, if it takes a ton of time to start and complete every step, it'd be almost as painful to debug as a remote runner taking the same time. On the other hand, if the cloud runner is ridiculously fast, and completes steps on the order of single digit seconds, it would be fairly painless to debug.
Seinfeld is arguably the greatest sitcom, and also arguably the greatest television show of all time. If creating arguably the best thing of a thing is not success then what is?
If you look at platforms like Twitch, Substack, and Patreon, I think it's pretty clear people are willing to entertain other models in large enough volume to support the livelihoods of the recipients. I do find it curious why there isn't a "paid" option from services like Facebook where you pay a monthly fee to essentially opt out of being their product opposed to user and not get targeted with ads. I guess in their case the monetization prospects from the hyper targeting they are able to do is probably too lucrative to even give people the option to opt out of.
We have the answer. Peer reviews should include a separate team replicating the results (follow methods, without knowing the results). Those that are replicated go into a higher acceptability tier. Those that do not get published in another tier. If replicating is not possible (for instance in the case of the LHC), the paper should go through 3 independent and simultaneous peer reviews.

The problem is not enough “gatekeeping”. Accepting a publication should be more stringent.
As several others have pointed out, the primary reason is the concern/fear of legal liability. All the information is already put together for the Hire/NoHire decision, and the entire Interview Team is usually aware (though this may differ depending on the company).

If you are working with a recruiter, it may be useful for you to ask them - as a Hiring Manager, I shared candid feedback with the recruiter so that they could provide better candidates in the future. Alternately, if you connect with someone in the Interview Team, you may be able to get them to give you "off-the-record" feedback.

Please remember to accept all feedback without getting defensive or pushing back, even if you believe the Hiring Team didn't do the right thing. If you want to set the record straight, it is better to do so in a separate conversation.
Poor comparison. McDonalds and Taco Bell are not as culturally divisive as Tik Tok and Facebook. Governments don't request nearly as much sensitive data from fast food chains as they do from modern IT companies. It's more like China having too much power over American citizens and Facebook desperately trying to overtake their market share, either for control or for a platform to fall back on once, or if, Tik Tok were to go under.
Neither did life without Standard Oil.

It's much easier to catch up if you can compete on price to start with. Why would a company take a chance on a developer in a new location if they've got to pay just as much? Once there's a critical mass of employers hiring in my location, competition will raise salaries up to parity, but sharing the surplus is what incentivises that competition in the first place.

As far as I can tell nobody is stopping you from doing this. Just as you can legally hack iPhones if you figure out how, so can you hack your Tesla. The only slightly illegal thing might be the anti-circumvention provision of the DMCA, but you'd have to take that up with Howard Coble and the members of the 105th congress.

My comment is reasoning for why Tesla has a stake in protecting their reputation; if you don't like it, please don't support their practices by buying their cars.
Ireland's AIB reverses plan to make 70 banks cashless following ‘public unease’
Noisebridge is a registered non-profit California corporation, with IRS 501 charitable status. The secret sauce for non-profitable Makerspaces and such is to not be profitable, and structure as a charity, because that's what it most likely is. Noisebridge is volunteer-led, so no one is on salary. Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noisebridge

Running a hackerspace for profit is most likely a dead-end.
I have two Instagram accounts. One just for my friends and family. And one for mindless content feed, brands, entertainment, etc. The separation has helped me reduce the mindless scrolling amazingly. I log into my friends and family account and catch up in five minutes per day. I very rarely choose to switch to the other account. Splitting into two accounts has been really healthy for me.
What would you say the ethical persuasion of science is based upon?
I like the comparison with Wall-E, but I'm not sure TikTok is worse than watching/zapping television for an hour (regarding your 10% of last hour question). That's what a couple of generations of adults has been doing with their evenings already. Also, your 15 minutes timer seems like a good idea! I should try that.

>. Waiting for strong, crystal-clear evidence to act would be engaging in the same flawed thinking that led to the claim that “there is no evidence that masks work” which we heard last year—the costs of delays or inaction would be high.

We are getting a real time test to the question of if mask mandates work in the wild: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-07-22/nz-jacinda-ardern-cov...

Australia has no mask mandates, NZ does. NZ has a higher death and hospitalization rate than Australia. The answer is that it's health theater on par with shoe removal at airports.

Of course we have the typical bait and switch of pretending that masks as used in an operation theater are in any way the same as the crumpled cloth mask from your pocket.
This reminds me that some Chinese tech companies (Bilibili and JD.com for example) fired people recently with words like "graduate from the company" and "congrats" them. It's really grossing.
Well, most people remember who Seinfeld is and millions of people still quote the show, so reality disagrees with you on what is and is not forgettable, but go on raging against the machine, I guess.
Not nearly every school used this. Also - at least for my highschool- teachers had unrestricted intetnet, and could grant it to students. For my highschool journalism class, students in the class were granted unrestricted internet for me example. I don't think letting blender through would be too hard.

There is absolutely nothing that Google offers that you can’t get from somewhere else.

Very different operating modes are required depending on how many people you're trying to coordinate. The allegory to software development is pretty clear - sometimes you're working on a personal project and zero documentation is tolerable, but sometimes your work is going to be translated into 200 languages and distributed to a hundred million users the day after it ships, and it needs ten times as many lines of tests as lines of code.

It seems to me that our model of "collect the data and analyze it yourself" is a sort of "ten engineer startup" scale process. Now that many fields of science have four or five digits of PhDs collaborating between countries, there's an increasing need for specialization, specifically in creating reusable data. It'll make us less efficient on a small scale, but creating any artifact at all that can be reliably used by ten thousand people is much higher leverage than a fully packaged data+conclusion that's even odds to be nothing but noise.
Yes because giving government more power can never go wrong.
Stuck in a rut? Sick of scrolling through mediocre self-improvement articles with clickbait titles? Here’s one simple trick to break out of the slump and get moving again:

- Make and ship something in two hours.

- Make and ship something in a day.

If you’re still not ready to start your big project by this point, then make and ship something in a month.
There are many very "serious" ones, but they won't replace DAWs because the audience for a programming language tool for computer music looks is very different.

A few off the top of my head that are used and/or made by serious computer music people: Common Music, Nyquist, Euterpea, Open Music, Common Lisp Music, Snd, Csound, SuperCollider, Chuck, Perry Cook's STK, and my own Scheme for Max and Scheme for Pd.

My own Scheme for Max is (modesty aside) interesting because it takes one of the serious code tool lineages and enables running it in a DAW. It allows you to port Common Music algorithmic composition code into Ableton Live through Scheme for Max. You get the ability to work in and sync up with Live, but if you want it, all the potential complexity and power of Scheme and Common Music.

I came here wondering why anyone would build yet another desktop. Now that I've read your comments--particularly about the flat look--I'm wondering why the github site says "It is probably not well suited for beginners." It looks to me like it could be very well suited for beginners. (And maybe me, too, although I hope I'm not a beginner.)

But did you take it as a dimension? no way..! ! ! By the size of a pure sine wave inverter, we refer to its output. It would be a better idea to choose an inverter with more output than you need. This is so because the power of the inverter is 10-30% lower than the value they mention.
IMO it's better for our long-term interest if companies can pay what the market will bear. For now splitting the surplus is win-win; as remote work takes off then there wil be more competition and salaries will rise. Growing the pie is better than asking SV employers to overpay on some point of principle.
No snark intended; what does this place offer? Is it largely a "community" thing? I'm looking at the equipment they have listed and it's oddly deficient. There's absolutely no electronics or 3D printing equipment you wouldn't be able to field yourself if you can afford the $125/month subscription. There's some metalworking basics that might be worthwhile if you have no space and no way to get any (highly likely in Sacramento), but with single machines for a given role and no comment on the available tooling and other support, there could be pretty serious issues with reliably using any of it. If I read the website correctly, they have at least 3000 square feet dedicated to gussied up co-working space, but no lathes currently available. Is this not checking out for anybody else that's hearing about this place secondhand?
This is a horrible argument. If Google disappeared tomorrow the web wouldn’t lose anything but ads that I block anyway and you would go to another search engine.
This Axios „article“ is the written version of a TikTok session, in an ironic turn of events. The bite sized information and the excessive use of bullet points is designed to keep readers engaged in a world driven by ultra short attention spans.

> I don't think it's what people want, per se. I think it's what some metrics say people want

This is true and realistically this is what any business should be chasing. People don't know what they want is something I sincerely believe in.

I do agree that people are good a voicing problems, but not desires.
There are plenty of workloads where 20% slack in the workload would result in massive (both relative and in absolute terms) additional costs. In these sorts of workloads, it's incredibly common to run any individual server in the fleet very close to maximum capacity. And even if any individual workload isn't, virtualization and containers letting you bin-pack servers makes it even more common.
I absolutely took advantage of BMG in the 90s. I was super diligent about the cancellations and I. The end probably spent a grand total of $20-30 on over 100 CDs, most of which I still have to this day.

Fun fact. These CDs were special runs just for them, complete with small BMG branding/copyright printed on the labels!
Many of the problems with TCP are solved by QUIC: https://www.chromium.org/quic/

For example, it handles reconnect for you (it's based on UDP which is
connectionless), it even survives IP address change, multiple streams over one connections and other thigns. There're several high quality libraries which you could use in your code.
This doesn’t account for the write amplification factor, which is quite unlikely to be 1 with a naive wear leveling implementation and the most brutal write workload.
One thing worth adding to this is that what wg-quick does here - adding routes for each entry in AllowedIPs and a corresponding routing policy - is not part of wireguard itselfbut a wg-quick specific thing.

This can become important if you want to have redundant gateways or something like that - you can have overlapping AllowedIPs, it just won't work out of the box with wg-quick.

For example, systemd-networkd started also adding routes by default in v250 but (rightly so IMO[0]) reverted to not doing it in 250.3.

How does what I say validate all or any criticism of science, I just don't think that people who work in this industry get to take all progress though human history and put that on their own lapel.

Do you know this podcast decoding the guru, it is funny at times in breaking down internet persona like Jordan Peterson and Eric Weinstein but what annoys me about it though is this "researchers" talking about fringe internet phenomena. Sure you can find your cooks on the internet but maybe they should point their sharp criticism at their own sometimes and draw conclusions from it, as in stop funding it.

What do you call people that disagree to agree on something ... a research community.
For all the good science I know I can equally find you the most asinine navel gazing triviality repackaged and sold as groundbreaking progress. Please don't get me started on what experts in innovation management ISO 56002:2019 can do to help valorise all this knowledge as they piss on us from from the top floor of their ivory tower.
How does reality show us what is ethical persuasion, or that ethical persuasion is objectively the correct approach? You need to convince me this chain of questioning won't lead to either:

-Pointing to a historical line of moral tradition and figures that hold a feeling of authoritativeness to us

-"Reality is reality" and an implicit appeal to yourself and your aura of "rationalistic candor" as the authority

Either way, I predict you'll ad-hom me for daring to ask the question...
Because the most thoughtful option would be conceding that there's basically not a substantive enough basis for the virtue of ethical persuasion that makes it inherently part of science. And then, science isn't especially distinct in this way from any moral tradition that values ethical persuasion, and then your tribe loses some of its unique sense of popular appeal, and then society won't be as easily coerced into the shape you want it to be. And you understandably wouldn't want that.

You said in a cousin comment:

"It [science] is no more (or less) a religion than what we have now."

And I think this applies here also and flattens out the appeal to ethical persuasion into less of a rigid, dogmatic declaration of "reality". It's rather that you want to be ethically persuasive in your reporting and discourse of what we try to agree upon as scientific evidence, which I think is good of you as a matter of faith and instinct, but I do not accept as self-evidently inherent to the epistemological basis of science itself nor necessarily to reality if we try to approach this rationalistically and divorce ourselves from appeals to authority.

The only other direction I can see for you is to try to bum-rush past the Peripatetic Axiom, and say that something about "reality" is somehow bypassing the fallibility of our sense-data and instinctual human appeals to authority - and therefore absolutely rock-solid, utterly unmistakable to anyone sincere... And that would be like what we call "Divine Revelation" in the metaphysics business. Anything like it is a strictly religious dogma - anyone who questions that epistemology as some branches of philosophy do, becomes a heretic, someone who needs to just embrace the model and "get with the program" already.

> Trying to solve objcopy's ugliness

Hey, I wrote objcopy and objdump as debugging tools for developing bfd targets when I was designing bfd. Neither was (originally) intended as a production tool. OK I still use them myself, and I haven’t looked at the bfd source code in almost 30 years.

I forget who came up with the tool chain target names, which I think was your real complaint, though I remember when. Perhaps Ian Taylor (later author of gold, which was notable for, among other things, not using bfd).

Objdump should have a feature to generate assembly or c code for an arbitrary blob (with correct byte swap, if needed, of course).
I think LLMs are pretty useful already. For example, the gmail feature where it suggests you a phrase is likely implemented via language model, and is very widespread on other applications too.
Not sure I agree.. maybe shame and shyness are being conflated here. My read of the article was that this shamelessness was in context of society at large -- kind of sociopathic almost.

In dating, there is no shame that way -- it's a perfectly acceptable behaviour many people engage in.
But that's just what you'd say if you were doing the opposite! Both responses actually mean "yes," which is proof that it's happening.
