Sure thing. It took me eight years of silence and age of 50 before I decided to take the plunge. And that’s after pouring over my entire life choices (introvert, extrovert, and in between).

So far, no headache but lots of positive gains. And I got the best of both worlds (silent and hearing).

Good luck. I can always relate.

If as you say, that Trump did not want to confront Russia in order to prevent nuclear war (I don't think that was his motivation, but let's roll with your argument for a sec) then Trump was an appeaser in the mold of Neville Chamberlain.

As for his actual motivations, I think it had a lot more to do with wanting to make money in Russia as well as his admiration of autocrats.

I think also that BSD (and later Linux) made UNIX free, and I assume Plan 9 was not.

UNIX was also written to run on minimal hardware. Even if Multics had been open-sourced, UNIX would still have won.
Agreed. What I particularly disliked is how absent of nuance it is. RC is a form of GC and all GC algorithms make tradeoffs. RC trades throughput for latency. Compacting mark and sweep trade latency (and usually memory) for throughput.

The rant at the end can be boiled down to "I use confirmation bias [1] to make my engineering decisions". The OP has already decided that "GC" is slow, so I'm sure every time a runtime with it misbehaves it's "Well, that darn GC, I knew it was bad!" and every time RC misbehaves it's likely "Oh, well you should have nulled out your link here to break the cycle dummy!"

I really don't like such absolutist thinking in software dev. All of software dev is about making tradeoffs. RC and GC aren't superior or inferior to each other, they are just different and either (or both) could be valid depending on the circumstance.

Yeah, soldered parts; but most manufacturers sell a windows pc with emmc storage that is pretty cheap. I have an older HP version with 2GB of Ram and 16GB eeMC storage. It fits in the tablet pocket of my backpack, is super light, long battery life, and runs opensuse like a champ, even with KDE.

But more seriously, what do you want from an OS? Cleaner design? Plan 9 comes to mind. QNX is very elegant, too.
Some microkernel thing? Fuchsia, but some say it's inelegant and overdesigned right off the bat. Minix has some nice properties but somehow nobody but Intel seems to use it. Also, QNX again (but as the name suggests it's similar to Unix)...
Distributed computing? I don't know, seems OK to run it mostly in user space.

My favorite alternatives are Plan 9, QNX and L4 (I know it's not an OS), of which QNX is the only one I have actually used. Shame about Fuchsia, I believe the negative opinions because I looked at some documentation and code before I read them and had a sort of "THAT is supposed to be Google's better OS?!" moment.

> I really can't imagine any situation where a younger gen z kid finds anything Facebook owns cool.

Really? Things must be different now, I remember Instagram being the most popular social media platform at my high school.
One reason to at least first suspect something other than educators is that education hasn't changed all that much in a long time. As far as I can tell at least the way elementary school and high school worked when I was in them circa 1970 is the same way it had been working for at least 20 years before that and the way it continued to work for the next 50 years until we had a year of pandemic disruptions.

When you've got something that has worked pretty much the same for 70+ years and something appears to go wrong in the last several years it makes sense that your primary suspects should be things that changed around the time that it started to go wrong.

That's my recollection as well (though I've not found evidence to support it). In fact, IIRC, as part of the python performance thing one of the topics was adding a proper generational GC into python for objects that don't refer to pinned memory.
Something that also tends to be under-appreciated is the constant bias towards successful A/B testing. Successful A/B tests lead to promotions and other positive employee outcomes - negative A/B tests can lead to dismissal in some places. As such people will naturally try to beef up the A/B testing result, or ship a "mixed" result and claim success.

I experienced this first hand at a previous job several years ago. We were all relatively capable, some more than others, so we didn't really _depend_ on SO 100%, but the disruption affected each one of us, we talked about it to others and soon enough it was the full open space that was down. It's not that we couldn't do anything without SO but that a critical part of our work environment was affecting the rest. Kind of like a bullwhip effect.

Pizza places are an example of what an efficient (low-cost) implementation might look like. They often bring in too many drivers for the dinner rush and let people go as demand tapers off, they'll cook pizzas in the right order so that a driver taking a double can have both items come off the line at once, and they have loading/serving stations optimized for getting the driver out the door faster. The net result is that drivers are making plenty of money since they're constantly busy, while there are usually enough of them to keep people from getting cold food.

Even in those circumstances, the fully loaded cost of the driver to the customer in some no-name suburbs was around $18/hr, split between on average no more than 3 customers. So on a $5 pizza you'd pay $11.50 for the pizza, tax, and delivery costs.

Contrast that model a bit with delivery apps:

(1) Doubles are rare, so the driver earns less per hour.

(2) There's still a back-and-forth between housing and food, but extra latency was tossed in since you have to wait after your delivery to figure out which place you're going to be grabbing food from. I.e., drivers make less per hour.

(3) Enough restaurants aren't fully optimized for fast deliveries that the drivers easily tack on an extra 5 minutes waiting for their food, resulting again in fewer deliveries per hour and less money.

(4) We can keep going on about why drivers are getting fewer deliveries per hour, but the consequence is that drivers need more compensation per order to be willing to do that over another job. Easily 50% more. Your $6 delivery cost is now $9.

(5) Combine that with the fact that they know the tip ahead of time. There are basically no consequences for skipping an order you don't want to take, so the only people getting hot food are on the high end of the tip scale, which is already higher than the pizza place average. Conservatively, bump this up to $12 per delivery, but when I tried DoorDash I was making $36+/hr for at most 2.2 deliveries per hour. You do the math.

(6) On top of all that, there's a middleman in the transaction with their own fixed costs they need to cover. The pizza place is happy just to sell more pizzas per hour by having a delivery option and charges a fee large enough to roughly offset the cost to them of providing drivers (included in that initial $6 estimate I provided). Uber Eats can't increase their profits _just_ by increasing orders per hour since they didn't have a cut of any of the initial transaction. They have to charge their own fees on top of everything else you're already paying.

I'm actually a little surprised the total bill was only $20. Was it cold?
I guess they couldn't afford the S3 costs?! :-)

Jokes aside, it makes sense to shut down, I can't imagine many Prime subscribers knew they had it, and it's probably a huge headache for them to worry about it being used for copyright infringement, etc... but it is odd timing to announce this now with the recent increase in Amazon Prime's membership fee.

Pivoting it to Photo/Video library archival is probably more useful to consumers (and cynically probably more useful data for Amazon...)
You can do similar on windows. However, the registry was turned into trying to solve a slightly different issue of roaming users, and centrally managed settings, split by machine and user, and using what became active directory. They started off with OLE and its central store of holding name value pairs in a tree. Basically making the registry do at least 4 different things. Only one of them it does 'ok' (COM/OLE lookups). In practice it became a huge mess because thousands of applications now keep their settings in there and poor cleanup practices like you see. When like 99% of the use cases out there would be perfectly well suited to just using the forever deprecated win32 INI API to manage settings and MS just saying 'put your config files in these places for different effects'. Instead they said 'put it all in the registry'. Looking back at it, it is now 100% clear it was a bad design decision.

This does make the fundamental assumption that train travel and driving are equal from a users perspective.

Train travel has the advantage of not needing to do the driving. You can spend that travel time doing something productive, rather than staring at tarmac. Additionally train travel is potentially more accessible (assuming proper investment in infrastructure). The obvious example being that blind people are never going drive anywhere, regardless of how “mobile” it makes them.

While your point about being close to train stations has some validity. For the vast majority of European urban, and sub-urban areas, a fast train connection is only 20-30mins away via local public transport. So living “close” in terms of time, doesn’t require you to be physically close to the train station.

Finally high-speed rail, is really fast. Up to 200mph fast, well over double what’s realistically safe in a private car. So while the train might not be direct, it’s going that much faster, you can still get to your destination quicker than a car.

To provide some context, many Amtrak lines are limited to 80mph, and only a small number can achieve Amtraks top speeds of 150mph. That’s ignoring the frequent delays due to track congestion and freight priority, which results in even slower average speeds. It’s not a surprise that trains look unappealing to many Americans, when the average US passenger train can only just keep up with a passenger car.
> Microsoft was about to release Windows 95, which everyone knew was going to require 8 megabytes of RAM to run reasonably, 16 megabytes of RAM to run well, and power users were going to want 32.

And here we are, 25 years later, doing mostly the same on our PCs (the typical desktop applications are the same today as they were then, ok, some of them now run in a browser, and instead of WinAmp playing your local MP3 files you have Spotify streaming from the cloud), but requiring 1024 times more memory to do it - 8 GB bare minimum, 16 GB ok, 32 GB for power users!

While I get your point, is there someone better to trust? Not every cryptographer works for the NSA, and I can't think of a way for a protocol to be looked at by as many cryptographers for flaws as the one chosen by NIST to be a standard. Maybe the runner-up that WASN'T chosen by NIST is possibly NOT the one the NSA knows about a flaw in?

The more rail improves the more I'm tempted to take it, with flying you have the additional time cost of just dealing with the airports, turn up an hour early, then get put in the metal tube where they won't serve you drink till they're up in the air, and you can't bring your own.

A train may take longer sometimes, but I find the whole thing much less stressful, you're not strapped to the seat, you have leg room, even a table, power sockets, bring your own food and drink, and the prices are competitive.

It still takes longer than I'd like to get from Switzerland to the UK, and that's mostly due to a lengthy change in Paris.

I think in France, and prob other countries too, their moving to ban domestic flights that can be done on rail instead
I agree that we should let density and demand drive construction of HSR.

That being said, there are plenty of plausible HSR routes in the US. We're a very sparsely populated country in our middle, but there's effectively a "string" of large cities right through our middle: NYC - Pittsburgh - Columbus - {Cincinnati, Indianapolis} - {Louisville, St. Louis} - Kansas City - Oklahoma City - Albuquerque - {Phoenix, Tucson} - Los Angeles.

All of the legs there should under 400 miles, and most should be under 200. There's also plenty of room for adjustment: Louisville - Nashville - Memphis - Dallas and then onward south, for example.
Simply because it's a lot nicer to say than "my predecessor did dumb stuff". Especially when the predecessor is still around and outranks you.

Yep.

Even the fastest trains Amtrak offers ("Acela") are zoned - or permitted, not sure what the right term is here - up to 150 MPH, and only on specific portions of the route.

Makes no sense at all.
This map is slightly misleading as the areas covered by the train stations are huge.
Yeah, well, that's what I'm saying really.

It's going to be slower and more expensive so not so many people are going to want to do it so why build more of it.

If the major stops are closer together, 'a journey' is shorter and cheaper and beats air travel, and many more people will pay for it.

I think it is a particularly hard character to build a game around. Danger/conflict for Superman boils down to a binary question - is kryptonite present or not? I think a later Superman game (for the XBox or XBox 360 generation, I believe) tried to use the health of Metropolis in lieu of a health gauge for Superman himself, which I thought was a novel idea.

There's also a lot of individual mechanics for Superman (flight, speed, strength, laser vision, etc.) that are probably challenging to get right. It's easier to work with more limited heroes.
Funnels can plug/jam, chains rarely fail.

Chainguns generally depend upon an external drive to pull ammunition through a gun -- whether a round in the chamber has fired or not, it will be extracted and a new one put in its place.
