I've had every bike I've owned stolen from inside my house's garage.

I have to sleep at some point.

Though I guess a foldable scooter could just be brought inside the house.
> automatically-placed bounds checks on array accesses

That's exactly why I get annoyed. How will it be fast if it branches on every access

The compiler doesn't prove shit. It lets the optimizer do it. It's extremely easy to fool the optimizer

The ones that don't make false claims (so not v or rust) and don't insert code I don't want
Concorde is literally a museum piece that hasn't flown in 20 years, because even in retirement it was extremely old, and it is extremely noisy and gas-guzzling.

Maybe so, but they might just be willing to take MBS's money to nod and make cool designs that will probably never get built. Which, can't really blame them.
Even at Google's scale, they cannot afford to provide high-touch tech support for 1.5 billion users. The fact Gmail is possible is partially due to their ability to scale low-touch tech support for free by supplementing the cost from other sources and, sometimes, just providing best-effort support.

(Remember, the cost isn't "How do we field calls from a fraction of our 1.5 billion users," it's "How do we tell whether that phone call is an actual user, or just an attacker treating our phone service as yet another attack vector?")
Didn't they start losing in 1942? So that would be bigger catastrophe for them in past 80 years...
The daily signal is not a reputable source for anything, and most definitely not for trans related topics.

Keira Bell purposefully lied and ignored all guidance and gatekeeping she was given; as she has openly admitted. She proceeded with transitioning, and then decided she was wrong.

Kiera Bell won her initial court case against tavistock and got puberty blockers banned. This ruling has been overruled. The ruling was in direct contradiction Gillick competency, and made zero sense in light of all case law in the UK.

Re tavistock:

> In March, a review of gender identity services for young people led by the paediatrician Hilary Cass confirmed what everyone knew: that the service was under “unsustainable pressure” as demand outstripped capacity, resulting in overwhelmed staff and waiting lists of up to two years that left young people at considerable risk of distress and deteriorating mental health.

> Cass recommended the creation of a network of regional hubs to provide care and support, a recommendation accepted by the NHS.

You are still addressing outcome without given the cause. You citations are also not supporting your claims.

> Australia spent decades gearing their economy to China’s [0] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia%E2%80%93China_rela...

What's the point economic ties between 2 countries are tied from both ends. Are you suggesting Aus is friendly to CN, as friendly as CN is towards AUS?

I see no point of this in supporting any claim regarding AUS' change of political stance. All things considered, it should be clear that it was AUS that starts to act threateningly towards CN, without CN provoking.

> The fury that erupted due to Xi’s string of fuckups, from trade disputes [1]

to security encroachments after breaking its agreement with Hong Kong and threatening Taiwan [3]

Trade disputes was triggered by AUS' political stance. You got cause and effect wrong.

> domestic meddling [2]

This is amusing report. You cannot label natural increasing of influence with intentional political manipulation. That's why Hollywood can affect nation's sentiment and culture, so much so that modern young people are strikingly resemble each other at different countries. The countries affected by Hollywood can censor the movie, but they never claim Washington's "meddling", or that claim is anyway sensible.

But the same thing does not apply the reverse. Or any White countries.

Now you reveal where the white supermacy lives.

> security encroachments after breaking its agreement with Hong Kong and threatening Taiwan [3]

Those are domestic issues, let's not mudding the water by mixing international and domestic affairs.

But anyway, these are normal operation taken routinely by any sovereign nations. National security law, sovereign integrity, etc.

> significant enough that its people chose to incur economic pain for self preservation.

What? Where is the logical connection from someone becoming rich with someone else feeling unsafe?
Edit: Sorry about that duplicate. I couldn't see my other comment and thought my phone has failed submitting.

Yes, I totally agree. Often I upvote a comment I disagree with since it nevertheless is a thoughtful and important contribution to the discussion. I feel I learn most from people I disagree with.
This is what I mean about how they FUDed themselves. There is a thing called swarm that isn't supported anymore but there's no reason to think the newer thing called swarm is gonna go away, and the only way I think it matters if it gets new "features" is if docker as a whole does. If it started collecting new features unique to swarm it'd just become another k8s.
I also live in NYC, and the total closure of the city is clearly something that infringed on peoples' rights. The inability of people to earn a living was pretty serious. Freedom of assembly is written into the 1st amendment, and the city was literally arresting people for congregating outside in parks. This was especially prevalent in the Bronx in the spring of 2020. Bill de Blasio was literally having police arrest people for being near each other outside and cramming them into over crowded jails in the name of COVID safety, just think about that for a moment.

Security Guide for Startups: How to think about security while moving quickly
My colleague and I wrote this blog post last week because we're constantly being bombarded with questions about how to think about security before any other type of security work has been done.

Often times, the first type of security being brought into a startup is a PenTest (because of SOC2) but I feel like that provides little value to an early stage startup. Something as simple as using a hardware 2FA key for employees will never show up on a pen test, but it's extremely impactful for preventing phishing attacks. (The generated one-time code is signed to the domain, so even if it's phished successfully it's not useful.)

Anyway, is anybody aware of any similar resources on the internet that would be helpful to link to other founders or people running small projects? I'd love to find some more resources to help people better understand security.
> "significant negative impact" on social skills.

Social skills you see them at the micro level , not at the macro level. That is after the halo effect of all the paid for publicity (plus all the abomination that is modern day social media) vanishes.

Once the halo effect vanishes everybody nopes the hell out of Musk life, including his confidantes, children and wives. So he has significant negative impact on social skills.
Something that hadn’t occurred to me until I read your comment was that a single straight train line is very easy to control. Maybe the line is partially a bet on future instability and the need for authoritarian control over the population. Cities built organically have many roads and paths from point a to b.
Comparing a market for devices to all of computer hardware (including peripherals/components) is what's ridiculous. The more apt analogy is computers (PCs) to iPhones.
It doesn't follow. A system is a collection of distinct, separate, entities in a single body. They are not equivalent to the personas of most people. They are, to a greater or lesser extent, siloed off from one another, as distinct as you and I. That is the description given by a significant part of the systems community, and is not compatible with your view of identity. A system would likely take offence at your suggestion that each member is just a persona.
You missed the sarcasm/jest on my first examples. I should have tagged them or been clearer.

On the later the separation is:

“I’m depressed” = Sad or a variation of it.

“I have depression” = Diagnosis of a disorder
Right, I don't think you can beat buying the machines, of course.

Résumé/CV: https://amirmalik.net/resume

Email: amir@amirmalik.net

I have 10+ years experience implementing software systems. I'm a full-stack engineer and have experience in everything from low-level network protocol design to frontend UX/UI implementation. I highly value teams that are remote-first and operate in an asynchronous working style. I'm currently based in East Asia (but happy to travel anywhere on Earth to meet you) and prefer to work non-nocturnal working hours. If the team is based in the West, that means you get me as an on-call person during U.S. night time for free :)

Latest few projects:

* I worked with the folks at Uno https://uno.app on a few different cool things on automating browser and WebView logins using custom automations, React, and browser extensions.

* "Web3" side project: https://loginwith.xyz built in PHP (nostalgia ftw!), SQLite and Dockerized into a beautiful small container setup. Given time, I'll add WebAuthn support and deemphasize web3 wallet logins. It has a pretty neat Amazon-style email magic link login that's easy to integrate into your website. Just open-sourced it on GitHub.

* Main side business: https://kvdb.io built in Go. In-progress work includes replacing the Lua scripting engine with a JavaScript engine or possibly WebAssembly or a pool of sandboxed Deno worker processes. I think the app server paradigm of the 2000s will be back with a vengeance. Running for 4+ years and I intend to keep it running forever.
As I understand it, momentum doesn't change even as mass does. So no net force.

Some theses can be disproved by a single data point, not all, and I asked about a specific type of thesis.

I repeat: can you show how a single data point can contradict a statement about the absence of correlation originally claimed?
Just FUD while spreading FUD? Are you trying to say release mode doesn't have runtime checks inserted?

What I want is a check outside of the loop then every access inside a loop unchecked and fast. Which isn't what rust does. Then it throws your memory away if you did an oops and went out of bounds
If a part of the job is coordinating with people in a specific timezone who are ready to pay for availability during their own timezone then yes. We don't consider it abnormal that a waiter in Manhattan gets paid more than a waiter doing the same job in Prague. A more interesting question would be to ask how can we overcome these coordination hurdles between people in different regions and cultures in tech companies? It's a challenge for sure.
Even in unsafe blocks, rust automatically places bounds checks on array accesses. It's just that in unsafe blocks you get access to additional more verbose functions, such as "array.get_unchecked(idx)" instead of "array[i]", that don't perform bounds checks.

Unsafe blocks don't change the semantics of code, they just let you write code you couldn't write outside of them.
No, in fact we've gone running towards it after some initial success, especially when combined with ArgoCD for CD and Istio as a service mesh. My company has a lot of experience with running applications on VMs and Amazon's ECS. Our VM automation ultimately became expensive to maintain and ECS had its own set of issues I could probably fill up a blog post with.

From the Operations side, Kubernetes is scary. It's easy to screw things up and you can definitely run into problems. I understand why folks who work mostly on that side of the house are put off by the complexity of Kubernetes.

However, from the application side of things, our developers have been THRILLED with Kubernetes. For most developers my company provides a nice paved road experience with minimal customization required. For advanced use cases, we allow developers to use the Kubernetes API (along ArgoCD + GateKeeper policies) as a break glass type of approach. Istio gives the infra team the ability to easily move services between clusters and make policy changes easily. It also allows us to make use of Knative, although I think the Istio requirement is no longer there.

That said, you should be using managed Kubernetes wherever possible and not running your own clusters. That's where trouble lurks.
+1 I really enjoyed these books. I wish there were more books in this series
We have to thank the stars on our knees that they were not yet retrofitted, as most would have been retrofitted with a gas boiler, making everything even worse.

My landlord replaced the heating oil boiler this (!) summer with a gas one. :( :(
80 years? That seems an extreme statement for what will essentially be a recession and having to wear more clothing indoors. Do you have some basis that this will be worse than 2008?
All the Google Python libs are pretty brutal. They use lots of code generation techniques IIRC and have their own home rolled future implementation that is annoying to work with from standard python async.
1 to 60% was possible in 15 years. All the while we have had these cost curves for wind and solar. [1] So you're saying the last 40% is going to be completely impossible and wreck the grid?

Like, I just don't understand your negativity. Projecting to reach 85% renewable penetration in ~3 years and it is a bleak outlook? You're looking for a magic finger snap and it is 100% tomorrow?

> Imagine if Google's vendors stopped offering Google customer service. Janitor didn't show up today? Well, clean your own office toilet today, technie.

At their scale, this exact scenario happens all the time. The back-stop is that Google chooses to stop doing business with unreliable service providers.

This is also an option for Google users. Gmail competitors are just a click away.

Walmart may be a reputable retailer, but it is utterly disreputable in being a reliable arbiter of identity. It doesn't train its employees well, its employees are often not the brightest bolts an the box, and those that are often don't give a shit.

Thanks - Not implemented yet. I put the form on the page before implementing the backend for it.
A crap list. Why is there "Essential Scrum"?
It is not reasonable to demand that open-source developers build a product for one of the world's largest companies because it is "too hard" for that company to ship a functioning product.
Wow, my first comment on the thread, consisting entirely of a quote from expert analysts, and already I'm a "luddite Reformer". (Idiosyncratic capitalization also doesn't help you seem balanced and rational.)

This turkey was designed in the 1990s. The contract was awarded in 2001. The first f35 flew in 2006. When will this "technology" no longer be "new"? Presumably it will be some time, since the entire fleet was grounded again last week due to safety concerns.

> There solar and wind installations peaked and then steeply declined, as a consequence of the actions of the same government which had hastened the exit from nuclear.

The decline hasn't much to do with nuclear, but instead with the conservative government shafting the previous infrastructure projects and subsidies for wind and pv. It was so clearly visible in the stats that it got named after the politian responsible ("Altmaier-Knick").

A much different kind of backward compatibility would have been needed for it to have been more useful instead of unnecesarily wasteful.

Each version of Windows was designed to ideally trigger a purchase of new hardware as a concession to the hardware partners, while each purchase of more powerful hardware was designed to be prohibitively difficult for users to operate using previous Windows versions, triggering a new OS purchase.

Non-Microsoft software suffers more from this disadvantage, compared to the benefit of having some of the Microsoft non-OS software function fairly well across a few OS versions.

I understand how embarassing it would be for users in general to have become aware of how much higher performance they could have gotten from using a previous version of Windows on the next generation of hardware, so this was always made unnecessarily difficult if not impossible.

Also how much hardware could have been saved from scrap heaps if maximum utilization of hardware was given top priority?

When the main reason for growth in manufacturing was consumers purchasing their first computer, this is not as much of a problem.

Once computers are ubiquitous, each new purchase triggers a corresponding waste declaration event.

Accelerating growth pressure under these conditions, while failing to even provide archives for "outdated" code needed to operate remaining vintage hardware, amounts to an overall anti-reuse/anti-recycling strategy.
OK, now go look at the marketing for the product they bribed this guy to approve.

The TV commercial was trying to sell you something and you knew it. You don't know whether the moron on HN/Reddit/whatever actually believes what they're saying about a product or is lying to you to justify their own purchase.

You can find product specs much easier these days but subjective product information is no easier to come by. Well, it's easier to come by, but you can't easily pick it out from the sea of BS.
I've attempted this multiple times through the years.
