I agree with most of what you said. But the way "low" cost (not "lower" cost, which is the wording I'd use) is used to describe a $430 phone with these specs is a little disingenuous to me. Maybe it's not that this thing is cheap, but that spending $800+ on phones for the average person is absolutely ridiculous.

It bothers me that Apple has so much mindshare among the public that people only judge their phones/devices in comparison to Apple devices, while ignoring any non-Apple options.

It's a cool map, now i would really want to play. If i could color code the names by birthdate it would be possible to get a great new insight in regional relevance over time. Also switching between current residence and birth place would be very interesting as well as color coding the distance between birth and current residence to see where attractive places are or how much of a role to become famous the embedding from birth would be.

I tend to mope around a bit while everyone around me tries to be nice. It makes me feel immature, but whatever; I don't think a single day of immaturity is going to bother anything. It feels somehow cathartic.

>> Having a branch run for even 2-3 weeks means that you are not practicing continuous integration ... as originally conceived.

Unless you're updating the feature branch from the main branch frequently (at least daily), thereby continuously integrating your code from the mainline.

Problems arise when everyone's working on their own long-lived feature branch and the mainline doesn't move until they all try to merge their feature at the end of a sprint. Refactoring makes this worse.
What is considered a "very low write throughput"? Are we talking 10s of transactions per second? 100s of transactions per section? 1000s of transactions per second? 10,000s of transactions per second?

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35804884/sqlite-concurre... has some pretty interesting numbers in it. Particularly the difference between using WAL mode vs not. The other aspect to consider is that the concurrent writes limitations apply per database file. Presumably having a database file per tenant improves aggregate concurrent write throughput across tenants? Though at the end of the day the raw disk itself will become a bottleneck, and at least the sqlite client library I'm using does state that it can interact with many different database files concurrently, but that it does have limitations to around ~150 database files. Again, depending on the architecture you can queue up writes so they aren't happening concurrently. I'd be very interested to know given all the possible tools/techniques you could throw at it just how far you could truly push it and would that be woefully underpowered for a typical OLTP system, or would it absolutely blow people's minds at how much it could actually handle?

When it comes to SQLite performance claims I tend to see two categories of people that make quite different claims. One tends to be people who used it without knowing its quirks, got terrible performance out of it as a result, and then just wrote it off after that. The other tends to be people who for some reason or other learned the proper incantations required to make it perform at it's maximum throughput and were generally satisfied with its performance. The latter group appear to be people who initially made most of the same mistakes as the former, but simply stuck it out long enough to figure it out like this guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7WnQhwBwqA&ab_channel=Xamar...

I'm building an app using SQLite at the moment, but am not quite up to the point in the process where I've got the time to spent swapping it out for Postgres and then benchmarking the two, but I dare say I will, as I have a hard time trusting a lot of the claims people make about SQLite vs Postgres and I'm mainly doing it as a learning exercise.
Curious on your take of designing your own api rather than using Kubernetes.

Is it due to difficulties of containerizing gpus or is the api space of k8s too big and difficult for a small cloud provider to implement?

Maybe the workloads completely don’t make sense together. I’m just curious what others think about it.

Or, like forums with off-topic sections. Slow paced, the shared interests are obvious, you can private chat if you want and you can join multiple forums to meet your needs.

This is only my opinion, but I think forums do everything necessary really, with the only difficult things to manage being:

- good moderation

- site maintenance

Which Facebook et al really fail at with the former. I also personally dislike how Discourse attempts to make forums more like chat apps.

Did you know that if you laid all the economists in the world on the ground end-to-end, they’d still point in different directions? True fact.
Fukayama's perspective is a very Hegelian one. Some countries might be threatened by wars with other countries but he contends the dominant paradigm of liberal democratic capitalism doesn't have any real contenders against it and so capital H History in that sense is over. Countries might not all embrace this framework but unless large numbers of people come to embrace Putanism or Xi Jinping thought then it isn't proving anything that Fukiyama wrong.

Now, I think that this is a terrible perspective to have so I didn't like the book at all. And I have other beefs with it. But the book was never claiming that countries wouldn't invade each other or that there wouldn't be terrorist attacks or that significant events like that wouldn't continue to happen.
The niche brands fall into this, like Fairphone (have one and love it, also for the modularity guarantee of 5 years of OS updates!) or Swiftphone, which very much encourage use of alternative OS.

What I would really love is a way to disable all sound notifications on Windows 10 permanently. Right now on calls I get assaulted with sound notifications from random places every 15 minutes. How do I turn this sh!t off!
And it is "of its time" - it appeared in Windows 3.1 which was 1992. Which was the era of floppy disks as well.
Is there a duration field using the same units?
I've (also anecdotally) observed this as an employer and in social settings. It's almost as if there's a correlation between being a heavy Tiktok user (who are predominantly pretty young) and having trouble focusing. It feels like a more advanced case of what happens to me when I use my phone a lot for basically any reason.
Several spam calls per day here, also Australia.
I'm on the same boat as quite a few posters: I hate notifications and have a hard time understanding how people who pick up their devices all the time get anything done and keep their sanity.

My personal phone is a device with GrapheneOS (no Play Store and no Play services, so not even the temptation to install attention grabbing crap - not that I even have social media accounts anymore). It is used mostly for audiobooks, music, navigation, phone calls, as a device for notetaking, information gathering / referencing - and to have a backup of my most important data near me at all times. The only app I allow notifications on this device for is the one messenger I have installed - which I only use to chat with my partner, a group chat with some of my oldest friends and the very occasinal message to other contacts (almost exclusively to coordinate some real-world activity). At the beginning of my work day, I usually chuck the personal phone in my backpack and only remember to take it out in the evening when I usually have a call with my partner - or when I'd like to listen to some music during a break. If there is an emergency, my partner, my parents, etc. know to call me at work.

My work phone is a bit different. I have it with me at all times when I'm working and have notifications enabled for Matrix/Element (which we use as our team messenger) and for the calendar. Not E-Mail, though. I check that when I'm good and ready.

My partner has a permanent exception to Do Not Disturb mode on both my phones.

On my computers, it's Do Not Disturb / disable notifications all the way. If I want to be informed about stuff, I'll keep the respective app open. During a normal work day, for example, I have Element, Calendar and E-Mail open on a second monitor for glanceability - and I even close those apps depending on the kind of work I'm doing.

Edit: I forgot: I also have my government's disaster warning app installed on my phones and it's allowed notifications - for obvious reasons.

PermitFlow (YC W22) Is Hiring a Founding Software Engineer
The problem of removing applications together with their configurations is trivially solved in the various Linux-based systems where any software package is installed only inside a private directory.

Any files that would be expected to be in shared directories like /usr/bin, /usr/lib or /etc, are replaced by symbolic links. Except for symbolic links, the installation of a package must not change anything outside its private directory.

In my opinion this is the only sane way of managing software packages, because otherwise, also on Linux, but especially on Windows, I have wasted far too much time during the years with debugging various problems caused by the installation/uninstallation programs.

I think Ada Lovelace is actually the perfect example of what the OP is talking about. There are fewer famous women in history because women were given less opportunity to excel (and sometimes had achievements they did make stifled or their contribution hidden). Ada Lovelace was both an extraordinary person, and in a very privileged position. Had she just been extraordinary, she wouldn't have had the tools to leverage her abilities. Her pedigree and circumstances allowed her access to the private education and social circle that allowed her to apply her abilities and excel. The issue is that so fewer women were ever given the opportunity to excel, and that still remains the case!

I felt this was an interesting article about how women were stripped of the opportunities to get into software in the 80s to much the same effect as likely many women were stripped of their opportunities during Ada's time: https://www.npr.org/sections/money/2014/10/21/357629765/when...

Yeah, I agree. It's just that they can just run pre-commit manually if the hooks bother them that much
In addition to performance, I would switch when the idea is to have the whole codebase, or a specific part of it, typechecked at "compile time". This way it can be part of a ci pipeline or a precommit hook, instead of blowing up with a good descriptive error (typeguard) but at runtime.
On a more philosophical level, the Unix convention is the "liberal" one, giving application writers more freedoms. Liberty enables more flexible applications and more chaos at the same time. A highly structured approach might be beneficial in the short run, but it might prove to be burdening beyond its due date.

iPhones have a "Silence Unknown Callers" feature now which sends anyone not in contacts straight to voicemail. It's also a bit smarter so if you call someone it will allow them to call back even if they aren't in your contacts list.

TikTok is basically an algorithm to crowd source superficially engaging content in order to keep people staring at the app as long as possible to show ads (and propaganda) while the app hoovers up data.
I agree, but it is not enforced. When I see a @typechecked annotation I know that the tests touching that path will blow up if the type is not correct. With intellij or Visual Studio code it is more of an hint (pun intended) one cannot rely on.
The big guys are likely all monitoring it extensively. Knew a guy at one of the big guys and they had a google maps style web interface where you could view and monitor in real time the temperature of every rack throughout every datacenter and then even zoom into individual racks to view each servers temperature.

It was also automated so that techs would get issues assigned to them to investigate servers/racks that were running too hot or getting throttled in order to try and fix the issue.

I was thinking specifically of Apple's M1 and recent upgrades from AMD and Intel, which all "go wider" (more execution units) and it works well for them. In some cases, these units can't even possibly be fed in steady state, only e.g. while catching up from some misprediction or cache miss.
More likely a search or wiki index.

Eg. Phil Collins isn't shown in favour of a cricketer from the early 20th century?

If we go by the original usage of the term, then yes, it's different skillsets between Ops and DevOps. You can't announce an Ops position with a DevOps title since the two are different by definition.

However, even if we go by your definition that it is the same thing, then the "Dev" part is completely redundant and we should just call it "Ops", since it's by definition the same thing and it doesn't warrant a new title, because it's the exact same thing. However I doubt that's what the case the original article is talking about.
Your math is off. 30ms is 1.8 frames and 40ms is 2.4 frames.

Constant 30ms will jitter all by itself, and if anything 30 30 40 should reduce jitter or even eliminate it.
Well not every attempt at innovation will catch on - luck plays a role too. But in terms of positioning it offers something distinct from YT/FB/Twitter/Instagram with short form video, a focus on entertainment, and like the article points out, it doesn't depend on the social graph. That puts it in a strong position vs the incumbents who are struggling to compete since they assumed customer value required other things. The innovation, whether conscious or not, was in challenging the assumptions and conventions of social media.

The trouble the incumbents have is how to compete since they can't just change their core products without a backlash. They need to find a new niche. More likely another startup will compete better and FB will try to buy them. This is just like old media's battle with 'traditional' social media.
How does not liking notifications and engaging with messengers, social networks and other sources of high-volume input translate to not interacting with other people? There's still, you know, real life?!
But how would you make as much money as FB does off a very useful tool?
While it’s good to have the appropriate facts, that is only tangential to OPs point…
I'm sorry to disappoint you, but the so called high level languages like Python or Java are perfectly capable of working with bits and bytes, and countless developers have done so.

The gatekeeping card won't fly here. This is not some obscure implementation detail of C/C++.
Another issue is scrolling visual lines one by one that have been wrapped. (N)vim can only scroll by literal lines, so if a line is longer than the screen and wrapped, there is no way to step through line by visual line.

A weird little section in the talk page:

> What's the deal with there being a million edits on this page in one day?
> Articles get edited a lot, for all kinds of reasons… The fact that a page is being edited doesn't itself mean something crazy is going on. It usually means someone is replacing a colon with a semicolon.

Maybe in principle, but 1 million edits?? That’s like 12 a second. Not impossibly large, but it feels disingenuous to claim “something crazy” isn’t going on. I doubt many other pages get edited 12 times a second for 24hr straight.
Equilibrium is hard to maintain in complex adaptive systems. Butterfly effect, chaos theory, Gaia Hypothesis, and all that.

Umm they are literally putting up boards that they will fine people walking shirtless on islands. Apparently they can't actually fine them because it's not based on any laws - but it's cities putting up these signs.

> Also there have always been undesignated nudist zones everywhere.

Designated or not is a technically, how many people out of general population actually go there ? This notion that it's generally acceptable - it's not. When I've wondered into to those places on Pag as a kid it was almost exclusively tourists and the locals would talk about it very judgementally.

>It is maybe a bit more conservative than typical EU state which is still way more progressive than American notion of "conservative" let alone "very conservative".

A country where we have like 50% of people vaccinated for COVID because of conspiracy theories fuelled by religious community ? Where 86% of population declared as Chatolic ? Where no doctor would perform an abortion on fetus with brain tumor because of call to consciousness (even when it was legal) and a woman had to go to Slovenia ?

Croatia is a religious and conservative country, comparing to US pointless, but pretending we're some progressive nudist friendly country is just counterfactual. We have nudist beaches, and people get naked on boats.
