EC2 bare metal + running your own VMs would solve the latency issue; but now you’re going to have more complex rental dynamics.

That would be $0.05 per core for an hour… or $0.05 for 60 copies for a minute. (Price for m5.metal on demand; a1.metal is half the price; m6a.metal is around $0.04)

I think the idea is cool — and wish you the best of luck.

I’m just trying to share why as a senior SDE your product doesn’t make sense to me: 100 integration tests a day is a fairly substantial team… and you’re charging a lot for it, at $2-3k per month.
Which is initiated by...?
This gives me hope. It also makes me increasingly annoyed at the political forces that have stood in the way for the past few decades. It would merely be an annoying roadblock in a technological fantasy if it weren't the case that fossil fuels are totally fucking up the planet, and they fucking know that.
>It's kind of a surreal dreamscape of unbroken high density urbanity

the funny thing is Tokyo's not even that dense, about a third as dense as Paris or Barcelona, and very sprawlish and suburban (IIRC 75% of the city is suburbs) but transit is indeed excellent and at least they don't inhibit construction to run a housing value racket.

+1 for Kenji’s book “The Wok”. I use an inexpensive carbon steel, flat-bottomed wok on my regular old electric stove. Sure, a round-bottomed wok on a gas burner might work better but I can get good results on my setup.
In that case do not do a Ph.d in math at all. Do it within an engineering department instead, much more funding and you get paid accordingly. And then it is much easier to network your way into an industry job as well.

Frankly, there is nothing in math research that is going to be directly applied to industry. Even applied math is entirely theoretical. To get to the level of your work actually being used, you need to wait for it to siphon through to the engineering department.
That looks like a pretty cool book.

It is not the one I used though: the entire book was Alice in Wonderland themed.
The move away from nuclear and the move towards gas are more-or-less unconnected. After the (currently in place) decision to shut of nuclear from 2011, the gas part of the electricity first dipped a bit, then went a bit above 2010 levels after 2019. But it's not like our dependency on gas for electricity was radically different before the decision to exit nuclear (at least the current one) and right now.

If you prioritized getting away from fossil fuels, instead of nuclear, the current situations might look differently but I don't think that would've been politically feasible. If nuclear were just left running and providing 22% of german electricity, I don't think we'd be in a much better situation right now.

The major issue isn't electricity, but other forms of energy usage like heating. But that wasn't ever something done with electricity (at least on a large scale) in germany, even in the nuclear heyday (as opposed to france).

> It is not misused in the slightest, particularly where animals are concerned

Mandatory disclaimer: I'm not, in any way, shape, or form defending mistreatment of animals or humans, in this era or any other.

With that out of the way: yes, it IS misused. What you are saying is "it happened a lot."

But "commonplace" would means it happened all the time, everywhere. There are records of it happening, as you said, but there are no records, or very few, of it NOT happening: criminal acts which were not severely punished, say. Here's an example of what I mean:

If you look at "murders in Chicago" you find a lot, typically hundreds per month. Yet if you ask the random Chicago resident "How many people did you know who were murdered?" they might have one, or none. (Unless they live in certain neighborhoods.) I actually knew three, but that was over the course of an entire childhood.

The web was invented in 1989, and by 2002 we already had an entire dotcom explosion and collapse. Google was a four year old established company. Using the internet was completely mainstream. Everyone at every age was using it and had uses for it.

No, the early web was not primarily scams. Blockchain is well over a decade old and still searching for a way to be useful.

Early internet was mostly military or educational. No widespread usage among everyday people. No big scams that I’m aware of, but mostly because no one was using it or could use it.
What exactly is your basis for thinking it’s crazy to ship things from the other side of the planet? What cost benefit analysis have you done to come to this conclusion? Or are you just appealing to your own amateur intuitions?

If there’s an ecological cost that isn’t being accounted for, the solution is to adjust policies so the cost is reflected, e.g. via a carbon tax. And I’m sure if we had a carbon tax, we would eat more locally grown food because it would be more cost effective. On the other hand, different parts of the world vary widely in terms of what can be grown there and how efficiently it. It’s a complicated problem that can’t be solved top-down, and certainly can’t be solved by some armchair hippie going “the whole system is mad, man!”
Practically nobody writes classic HOWTOs anymore.

At best you get amateurs speaking authoritatively on subjects they've barely scratched the surface of in blog posts they can try monetize, at worst you get the same thing but in the form of a youtube video.
non stick pans use ptfe not pfoa, this has been a scare tactic by "holistic nutritionists" on the internet for ages. If your non-stick is from a name brand and less than 10 years old, they haven't used PFOA (or PFAs) in ages. Don't toss your stuff out.
I've cooked on both, many years on each and I'm an every-day kind of cook. In my experience, gas is better. Heats up faster, reacts much faster to control input, and by looking at the flame under the pan I can adjust exactly, and quickly.

I have not cooked on induction though, which might be a big improvement over the electric ranges I've used.

Another thing about gas ranges that is purely mechanical, is that I can slide pans around to get them off the burner when I need things to cool down fast and I don't want to turn the flame completely off. I have come to really rely on this. The electric ranges I've used have a glass top and it will get scratched up if you slide the pan around.

I don't get the whole premise of this article.

If they wanted to minimize the use of "antiquated" Fortran code, that's fine I guess. But why didn't they just use ZGEEV for both the real and the complex case? Instead, they went on great lengths to transform complex matrices into real matrices, and recover the eigenvalues of the original complex matrix somehow...
So why not static with the ability to ignore hinting or similar? C# does this.

I think function definitions should be statically defined, but the actual body of a function could easily stay largely dynamic.
I understand the meaning of a 'test-minute', but in OP you said however many tests, it ran under a minute. Not a minute per test. So if that's the case then fine.

(But also now there are 'tests that take longer than 1 minute'? It's gone from wow to not really clear what you're offering beyond managed test-running (that's otherwise equivalent to self-hosted) to be honest.)

Edit: do you mean they're parallelised, so they all complete in however long the longest one takes (which in OP is <1m but in comments might be more) and you'll charge for #concurrent jobs?

A very close relative suffered for years before she finally passed away. She passed away before medical assistance in death was available.

Watching that hardcore spark plug of a human be absolutely destroyed by a disease was awful and changed my view on medical assistance in death. We wouldn’t make a dog go through what she did. Offering her some control over her way out would have been much more humane than what she ended up going through.

> His application for euthanasia listed only one health condition as the reason for his request to die: hearing loss. Nichols’ family reported the case to police and health authorities, arguing that he lacked the capacity to understand the process and was not suffering unbearably — among the requirements for euthanasia. They say he was not taking needed medication, wasn’t using the cochlear implant that helped him hear, and that hospital staffers improperly helped him request euthanasia. “Alan was basically put to death,” his brother Gary Nichols said.

> Disability experts say the story is not unique in Canada, which arguably has the world’s most permissive euthanasia rules — allowing people with serious disabilities to choose to be killed in the absence of any other medical issue.
If there was a list of commercial VPN provider IP ranges, we’d block that too.

A key property of people who aren’t willing to relinquish their anonymity for even a moment in registering for your service, is that they’ll never be able to pay money for your service, either, because doing so would reveal their identity through their credit card.

(Yes, they can use Bitcoin or whatever, but then you’re basically signing up to be a dark web business, having to deal with being a money-laundering sink for stolen funds.)

So, if your goal in getting users to sign up, is to feed them through a funnel that eventually ends up with them paying you money, then you can take “signs up using a VPN” (or an email anonymization service, or…) as an immediate self-disqualification.

Of course, most such failed attempts are innocent first-time “I didn’t realize you cared” attempts; so we just throw a clear error message, telling them to try again with their real email+IP+etc.

But when a user responds to that error by just trying more and more email proxy domains, or repeatedly rotating their VPN country… well, that’s someone who’ll never be a customer. May as well just block them and be done with it.
I would say you can use Linux desktop, but after being convinced by some fanboys that the days of hardware incompatibilities are a past if you don't use the latest hardware - I tried installing it on my desktop. Downloaded fedora, booted into a black screen - won't even show display output on my Nvidia 1050 GPU with display port output. Unfortunately Windows has gone downhill with 11 and CLI is still shit on Windows, Powershell is wonky, cygwin and msys2 are a constant source of headache.

MacOS is just miles ahead of competition these days if you need a stable OS with nix userland, my only complaint is docker performance is garbage.
That sounds like an unnatural conversation to have with a partner. Sharing specific negative things about your immediate experience and then slapping “I am grateful that I don’t live in a war-torn country” on top.

Saying that, I agree that reminding _yourself_ of such things helps to keep a more healthy perspective, just not sure sharing that in a conversation is helpful.

The majority of that battery production is going into EVs. We will need much more to do both EVs and grid scale storage.

This is where different types of batteries that are too impractical for vehicle use might come into play, but we still don't have a clear idea which of those battery technologies will be appropriate and/or agreed upon for grid use, let alone who is going to pay for the mind boggling amount of them we will need.

First, sorry for being so rude in my previous comment, and what i might put here. There is a lot of misinformation out there (and in the article) and it hurts people in very tangible ways. Stigma and misinformation can very literally kill.

There is a lot of inaccurate information, and a lot of unknowns being taken as fact in this article.

For starters, almost any model of the mind based on ideas of wither Freud or Jung have been thoroughly... i won't say "disproven" because there is no proof for any of this within reach of humanity so far, but they are effectively useless. Those models don't account for a lot of things, lead to wrong outcomes in others, and overall they are a bad way to describe what's going on inside the psyche of a person.

Some characteristics of those models can be inherited into newer models, but basing anything off them will lead to routes that won't be representative of the way the mind of a person works, whether is neurotypical or not.

Having this in the middle of the article demolishes whatever credence one might hope to sustain about what it further develops.

As you point out, the "voices" that schizophrenic people might hear are not a simple auditory hallucination; though just saying it's reasonable to say they are actual selves is taking an idea in a very simplistic way. Here is where the issue begins, a person not versed whatsoever in psychology reads the article and believes as gospel what is said here in a very simplified way, the nuance is lost in the middle.

Whether the voices of a person with schizophrenia, schizotypal disorder, or schizoaffective disorder might actually be discriminated as having the same qualities as a disembodied being, is dependent on the specifics on the case, how is it treated, and how other comorbidities might interact with it. Things regarding mental illnesses are extremely messy and extremely hard to grasp even for trained professionals with specific experience in the area (years to find a psychiatrist qualified enough to treat my partner. years!).

The article contains a lot more bad sources, inaccurate understanding of the self and the inner dialogue (that not even everyone has) and has a haphazard mixture between pop-psych and neuroscience that conflates things that are pertinent to a certain domain as generalizable or universal.

I'm sorry but this is not good and it's not as simple as correcting a thing or two about schizophrenia, because when i read the whole thing it screams "i don't really know what i'm talking about but i will throw a bunch of sources and topics and pretend i do". Maybe you're knowledgeable about this stuff and just the process of simplifying things for the article butchered everything, or maybe you don't really have much idea about what you're writing. In any case if you want i can give you some books/papers/sources, or chat about the subject, feel free to contact me.

And again, sorry for being so rude earlier.

This is not my experience, it probably depends on the resilience of the seasoning. I use these things every day with either olive oil or butter so the seasoning get a reworking nearly every day - I have 4 different skillets in regular use so there tends to be a day or 2, 3 between each use per item. It takes a night in the scullery for that irony taste to develop.

That said I don't mind the fact that some iron makes its way into our food. I mainly cook vegetarian/pescetarian because my wife does not want to eat meat ever since she saw some practice in a slaughterhouse at age 16. This means it is harder to make sure our food contains enough iron. One of the ways of achieving that is to use cast iron cookware when cooking acidic foods. The longer the food is in the pan, the more iron makes its way into it. Eventually this leaves that metallic taste but that takes quite a while in a well-seasoned pan.

Wow. This post reminded me that I wrote a HOWTO 20+ years ago:

It's still sorta relevant, I guess...

What a blast from the past.
In a lot of cases the harm was known up-front, but then a handful of people in charge of the profits decided to scale up to “all of society” anyway. Cigarettes, leaded fuel, and fossil fuels are all in this category.

No individual manager at any corporation involved in this has a KPI that says: “Terminate the entire category of industry on which our profits are based.”

This is the problem, and governments these days are just an extension of the same broken system.

Chasing after profits will lead humanity off the edge of a cliff.
There is some confusion with different issues, you are right. There are several problems that create a perfect storm:

1. As you said, the water issue is just temporary. This is a non-issue for this winter.
2. The next generation NPP, the EPR, is late and is currently only planned for 2023
3. The current NPPs have been authorised to be used up to 50 years, under the condition of doing fairly important upgrades. This is what is ongoing. And because the decision to push these to 50 years was late, the upgrade schedule is quite tight.
4. This upgrade, and other normal maintenance have been impacted by COVID
5. As someone else said, corrosion was discovered during the maintenance of an NPP. Since the cause of the corrosion could not be explained, the operator decided to shut down all the NPPs with the same design. This is being currently analysed and it looks like the nuclear authority is happy with the proposal. The current work is to develop a reliable system to detect and monitor this corrosion, not a change in the design
6. The main operator is in the process of being fully nationalised and is suffering financially as it was basically asked to bail out its competitors this year due to the energy crisis.
7. The backup to NPPs in France is currently gas. And you may be aware of a small constraint on gas due to some issues with a country located further East. If Russia stops the delivery completely, gas supply could be an issue and therefore we need to plan to reopen coal plants that were closed because they were no longer useful.

I never really intended on publishing it until I showed it to a few friends who kept on encouraging me. I'm glad some of you are enjoying it!
