Unnecessary, and has been unnecessary for almost as long as we've had cars. Investigators (the NTSB) are fantastic at looking at wrecks and determining the underlying cause, even in the absence of the black and red boxes. There's no need for always-on-always-phoning-home telemetry.

And this is where I get annoyed - there's no value in companies having that data when their most public use of it is to get popular opinion on their side in a fatal wreck.

Seriously, fuck Elon Musk for that horseshit.
This pretty much nails it. The way I saw it put which feels fitting is, “Everybody who moves into San Francisco wants to be the last person to move into San Francisco”. Of course this isn’t a practical desire in any city, but that doesn’t stop people from trying to make it happen anyway.

>And no, "too bad, go live in the middle of nowhere" isn't an acceptable answer.

As someone who grew up in a small town, do you understand how condescending this is? People have homes there, have families there, work hard and live decent lives. Just because they live at a pace you're not accustomed to, doesn't make living there some kind of hellish existence. Many would say the same about a filthy, overcrowded, crime-ridden city, of which I've lived in several across the US.
> if the software is served over the Web or to any platform with automatic updates, E2EE is fundimentallu broken; and, first-party end-to-end encryption is snake oil.

This statement, and this way or extremist thinking is the classic no true soctsman fallacy. Taken to the extreme it goes back to trusting trust, and not everyone is a cryptographer who wants to verify the encryption is strong and implimented correctly.
Privacy is a sliding scale and people have different threat models.

The statement is also so broad that applying it as a specific issue with E2EE seems foolish - after all the same could be said for any website. You're trusting that Amazon doesn't maliciously update their website to start sending passwords or credit card numbers in plaintext. Hopefully this example demonstrates why encryption in transit is useful.

Just as encryption in transit has tradeoffs (mainly caching), so does E2EE. The benifit of E2EE is data at rest - the server owner cannot suddenly decide to decrypt your data for their means. As you've outlined, for strong privacy this requires tradeoffs (local calculation, more complex systems). As you've also outlined E2EE is also not a magic bullet (trust the client), but that doesn't suddenly discount all of the benifits.
This entire article came across as a winey rant. I've never been in a situation where "all the discussions were about alcohol" outside of when I worked for a liquor store and participated in industry events. Within the coding spear, alcohol is not discussed anywhere close to as frequently as nerdy topics.

Why didn't the author just take the "beer dispenser" and use it to dispense something else? The pipes, tubes, mechanisms don't only work for beer. Or just sell it or donate it if it bothered him that much.
Are you referring to the 7% cap on the number of people that can get a green card from any one country in a calendar year?
That might be true in the US, but there are plenty of cultures where it's common not to eat meat, or exclude certain kinds of meat. I remember the time white American co-worker told one of our Indian co-workers, a devout Hindu, that his food had beef in it. "Just a joke", right? Lots of east Asian countries have essentially no dairy products in their mainstream diets.
Second on Masters of Doom; my favorite part is near the beginning, when Carmack showed Romero the smooth scrolling on a PC, and Romero is running through the office trying to show everyone, only for most of them to be largely unimpressed. I thought it was telling that the only person who really understood what Carmack had made was Romero, and it showed why they (initially) made such a good team.

Whoever you are and in whatever stage of life, there will always be some popular thing that you can’t even fake being a part of. Might be alcohol, might be sports, might be heterosexuality, might be kids, might be money, career or a thousand other things.

The solution is not to sand all public life down to a smooth and seamless sameness. It is to treat each other respectfully, even if you are an -er hanging around are nots.

Sorry to this person for a few moments of feeling left out. We all have those moments, some more than others.
I don't know what to tell you. I just don't want to be surrounded by high-rise apartment buildings. I didn't buy a nice house in a nice suburb to stare at giant cement buildings. It's that simple.
I have, but not in a way that has me worried for myself. The cases of backfire I've seen it's been either horrid opinions or gross misconduct.

It's not vegans who are the ones building this - I'm pretty sure its corporations who are looking to make money on veganism and the changing dietary habits of the populations.

Most vegetarians/vegans don't try and mimic food like this. Just want you to target your statement to the right people --> companies trying to make money on niche/high margin items.
The more history of war I read, the more I realize how much it ends up looking like iterations of games -- which is to say that, it's not like this scary ever-increasing destructiveness. Certain ways of doing war just seem to go in and out of fashion.

All to say, for better or worse, this all could be just as scary RIGHT NOW, but for whatever reason it isn't. No reason to believe "uh oh, here comes potentially scary tech, better try to blanket ban it now."

People die before many things, that's not really relevant and it's just an emotional statement. Compare the length and rate to other countries for an actual assessment.

A lot countries I've looked into take 5-10 years for citizenship, the US is 14.5 months on average.

I'm talking about the amount of immigrants taken in vs other countries. Yes the US is large and can take in a lot of immigrants, and we do, by far.
Famously all the rich people have moved out of Manhattan.
You can lead a horse to water but you can‘t make it drink. Job poor areas in the US have no shortage of incentives or policies designed to lure companies there, but have had little success over the past few decades.

Does a duplex count as two? If so that means triplexs higher MUDs are illegal, which will harm low income housing options.

Can companies own property? If so then the problem is easily escapable with a simple LLC. If not, then either existing ones have to be grandfathered, or the housing market is going to be flooded with corporate housing.

The better approach is to increase taxes for non-primary residences. Address the root of the problem rather than legislating it away - if mass-investment of housing is unprofitable, the problem addresses itself.
There's a correlation between crime / neighborhood blight and low income residents.

That correlation may be because of historic and current structural racism, lack of access to mental health services and a social safety net, or a myriad of other socio-economic issues, but it doesn't change the fact that it exists.

Insinuating that anyone who brings up those issues is racist isn't helpful.

It would be more productive to say "Yes, I understand why neighborhoods might be resistant to denser, low-income tolerant development, and here are some ways we could incorporate that fact into a productive plan..." E.g. building more mixed-income developments.
What really bothers me is how this kind of language creeps into other areas of life besides work. It's nauseating listening to the pompous, obfuscating speech favored by a lot of American professionals.

Another disturbing phenomenon I've noticed is the use of more generic language on principle. A case in point is the phrase "sex worker" which seems like it's often used deliberately to blur the (many and important) distinctions between prostitutes, masseuses, bikini baristas, and what have you. And for what? Solidarity? Surely there are better ways of achieving that.

Alarmingly, this sort of thing has been showing up a lot in the discourse surrounding monkeypox. Spokespeople and journalists keep using the term "LGBT community," when surely the relevant group is specifically that of men who have sex with other men? Whatever purpose their wording serves, it sure isn't a public-health one.
The criticism is tying visa status to employer. No reason to do that unless you want to suppress wages for US residents.
I've never like the taste of beer but come to tolerate the low-bitterness wheat lager type. So if socially useful I just spend a long time drinking up one. If you don't mind the taste but do mind the alcohol, dealcoholized beers have come a long way to repectability. I was stunned to see them as a standard offer at the Viktualienmarkt in Munich of all places, and that was 9 years ago.

And finally the old stalwart: Ginger ale! If you don't put ice in it, it doesn't look much different from beer.
Sounds like they missed a chance to start drinking kombucha on tap.
Too perfect how? Because you disagree with the viewpoint? What are the good reasons that people shouldn't want high density low-income housing?
What's nuts is not just that investors get to buy homes, but that its tax advantaged to do so. Between prop 13 in California, to 1031 exchanges, there are plenty of reasons to invest in RE over even say the stock market. I don't get to do a 1031 exchange for my Meta stock into AAPL or something...
You are acting like owning a home entitles you to dictate how other people get to live. It does not. Owning a home shouldn't allow you to dictate that someone cannot build a home near you. Unfortunately it does in some places, but this is fixable.
How so? What am I not being candid about and how can it be flipped. I’m not assuming OP is anywhere, I’m pointing out what OPs opinion, in aggregate, does to job trends and the externalities and consequences are beyond a narrow “I miss going to the pub after work.”

Candidly, I believe that employees who advocate for RTO are playing into the hands of stakeholders who don’t care much at all about those employees interests and reasons for going in, and by extension it damages fellow employees who want to stay remote.

The issue is, and by extension my primitives:

- remote employees can stay remote without damaging RTO employees’ social connections as there are a mountain or ways to get those social connections outside of easy-mode work.

- if RTO employees start going back, remote employees get damaged. There is the binary in office/not in office option. demonstrated outcomes are RTO pressure from some leads to RTO pressure for all.

- so, remote employees aren’t infringing on RTO, but RTO infringes on remote. There is more than enough evidence of this. One is allowing whoever to do whatever, the other is infringing on one population to support the social needs of another. That doesn’t seem right for Pete’s sake.

Ultimately, between a person’s ability to get easy access to a pub in light of the above, vs the resulting damage on employees who just want to work via the internet connection in their homes vs the one in the office and as a result see their kids grow up and get to know their spouses outside of pre-8am and post-7pm… that seems like a clear greater good to orient around and to be aware of one’s views’ impacts. It’s more than just pub nights involved.
Maybe its a generational thing with us millenials having these devices. Almost everyone I know has a game system, either a PS4/5 or an xbox.

The only thing I could see it really preventing is a malicious employee making a commit with obviously bad code in someone else's name, but with branch protections enabled, it wouldn't go to prod without someone else catching it.
> Nothing good can come out of tech dominance.

The dance between hardware, software, and devices, and its consistency, is a measurable good. To me, this is the "magic sauce" of Apple that makes them successful.

But, to agree with your point, my general rule is: Apple hardware, with third party services (besides iCloud). And, a PC or console for gaming. :)

> Doubt there's much public transit out that way. Only 30 miles to a town I might be able to get a job in, though...

Lots of people in the SF area and lots of other big cities have commutes of 30 miles or more. And I'd bet the traffic on those commutes is a lot worse, so 30 miles in the Laketon area is likely equivalent to maybe 10 miles in SF.

I'd expect entertainment and cultural events are limited in Laketon, but it's a 100 mile drive to Indianapolis and 140 mile drive to Chicago. With all that you'd be saving on housing compared to SF weekend getaways to those cities should be affordable.
Healthcare in India also has one very negative aspect which is that more than half of the doctors have qualified due to some form of caste based affirmative action. More than 50% seats in Indian Medical colleges are reserved for "lower castes." It's much easier for a less hard working/bright student to get into the college if he belongs to the lower caste which reduces the quality of doctors so much that a lot of people refuse to get treated by doctors who have lower caste surnames. Atleast in America you are guaranteed you have mostly competent folks treating you, hard to do that in India without doing background checks on the caste of the doctor as well.
>I’m calling out the alcohol obsession we have in the tech industry

Having worked in the tech industry, publishing, academia, and medicine, I'd like to offer a correction. The tech industry does not have an alcohol obsession. The United States has an alcohol obsession. Drinking was certainly pervasive in tech, but no more than anywhere else.

>Having an event in a bar or a pub is problematic in and of itself.

Likewise, there is simply a lack of public social gathering places, in American cities period, that are not bars. And I don't particularly like bowling.

>If one needs alcohol to have a good time, then there’s a bigger problem to deal with.

My hypothesis is that alcohol supports a rapid transition from work to relaxation, in much the same way that caffeine supports a rapid transition from sleep to work. Under "normal" conditions, the mind is more "sticky".
declare function addClass(...classes: (string | string[] | (() => string))[]): void;

It's pretty straightforward in Typescript. And when you go to implement it, tsc will make sure you cover all the types your function claims to support.

> This is very useful to create a library like jquery that you can initialize straight away without needing (but also being able to use) the `new` keyword, just calling it like a function and always ensures it returns an instance.

Avoiding having to type "new" is not a very compelling reason to avoid Typescript, especially because Typescript won't let you make the mistake of calling the function without it. It's just not a problem.
> Are you referring to the 7% cap on the number of people that can get a green card from any one country in a calendar year?

No. I am talking about the constant asking for paperwork, processing times that vary from 2 months to over 2 years and preventing people from traveling to their home countries, lest they get locked out.

This is how criminals are treated.

> We have admin/root on normal PCs and nobody is complaining there.

That's true.
eh, as someone who was one and has been surrounded by wreckheads my entire life, this is absolutely not my first thought if someone doesn't want a drink or whatever. Also, compound cultural inputs - I'd full understand someone with a non-European family name not wanting to imbibe booze.

I'm perfectly ok with someone not wanting a drink. I wouldn't want to go out on the piss with them, mind, and I fully understand and respect the fact they'd not want to anyway... .
Maybe? Some of us have significant others, who believe staying close to family and whatnot is of some importance. I don't, but I am biased since I left mine thousands of miles away and have not looked back much.

If it was up to me, I would already have moved somewhere with lower taxes, but "kids, school and so on" currently takes priority over my selfish needs.

There are reasons to distribute DBs that do not need to be up constantly, e.g. distributing work (transactions or queries) across more resources than are available on one machine; or to bring a replica closer to some other service to reduce latency.

Kafka Streams is the first kind; the source-of-truth storage is HA (as HA as the Kafka topics it's backed with at least) but can only be queried with high consistency when the consumer is active, and it goes down for rebalances when you scale out or fail over (and in many operational setups also when you upgrade).

For an example of the second kind, see Fly.io's Litestream explanation - https://fly.io/blog/all-in-on-sqlite-litestream/.

That being said, I think the etcd etc. examples are just meant to be in contrast to stock Redis or Memcache, which offer very little HA support, generally just failover with minimal consistency guarantee.
