Can't we go with MT? (millions of transistors per square millimeter)
Bingo, but it’s much more that hybrid is REALLY hard to get right. The remote employees are always at a disadvantage.. dealing with this now at my new job, I’m not remote, but my local office is not where most of my specific teammates are.

“Top talent” getting diluted by remote-ness may be not worth it. Hiring local to work in-person may be better if the less talented team can really communicate and get shit done.
The components used seems to affect your starting price as well.
The Raspberry Pi has found great success as a console and coinop arcade game emulator, so of course, a RPi is a turing device meaning it can run all the things that any other turing device can run.

It's great at emulating arcades! that's totally non-arm software.
If you were to ship a desktop app that stored its local data in relational format, would you bundle docker and postgres along with it?
A microcosm for me is not wanting to stand out in any way with the colors that I use to dress. More and more I fear people I encounter in train stations and down town. People are just nuttier and more radical. I don't know if it's the politics, COVID or increased drug usage.

Anyway, I dress in drab colors and try not to stand out. I avoid strong reds, yellows, greens, blues, or anything that could make me stand out like national flag colors or rainbow representations. Don't wanna accidentally call attention on myself by showing any kind of allegiance to anything.

Ironically, now I can afford clothes that I couldn't afford before but I no longer feel like I can spend money on things that are frivolous nor flashy for the reasons stated.
The entire reason the kingdom funga exists is to eat waste. You may have heard that dead trees piled up for millions of years before fungi came along, whereafter they carved a new niche for themselves in the ecosystem and consumed the detritus. Life finds a way ;)
I would love to see price tags added to them as well. Wheels? $100. Handle? $50. Pro handle? $1000.

That doesn't even explain what "Spectrum", "Jobs", or "Trending" mean. I have some idea what "Jobs" means, but not the other two.
I agree with your two points. It does seem to be targeted at a subset of folks and not the normies.

They rebranded from Atlast Food Inc in that blog section. They also mention going after the "alt-meat market".

Nothing wrong with more choices. However, nothing will ever really replace bacon.

Begs another question of how well a food start up does vs tech ones.
I would rather just use a plain for loop and manipulate the index in the loop body:

for(uint32_t i = 0; i < length; ++i) {
i = (length - 1) - i;
// ...
}

Much easier for me to understand, making it less likely to mess anything up.

> I genuinely don't think the city can fix that.

Not with California's caps on property taxes. A land value tax used to fund a citizen's dividend / basic income would absolutely fix that - but the ones who are wealthy enough to own land in California - and particularly those wealthy enough to own land in the Bay Area - are also the ones with political power, so until the people of California hit a breaking point that ain't likely to happen.

The problem, in other words, is statewide, but especially acute in SF and its metro area (and lately the metro areas surrounding it).

> The only thing I can see working is dramatic redistribution of wealth, which will probably crater the city finances as everyone with money leaves.

Driving everyone without money to leave would surely crater things just as badly. Indeed, it's no wonder that "nobody wants to work" when even Sacramento and Stockton are unaffordable and people are commuting in from Modesto and beyond.
You wrote: "ambient information"

This is a brilliant term. I never heard it before this post. (Thank you!) My whole career is working next to traders and sales at global investment banks.

Everytime I hear someone say: "Sales & traders can all work from home / [low cost] country X,Y,Z", I cringe. They fundamentally do not understand "ambient information".
> Upper layers deal with higher abstractions (objects, rows, whatever)

Right, I'm waiting for standard for a level above relational databases which is Object-databases. I know there are several ones already and there are Object-Relational mapping layers.

I think the key point there is that Object databases are a level ABOVE relational databases. They are not "better" but they deal with the higher level of objects rather than "tables", just like relational databases can be seen to be are a level above key-value -stores.

I would like Object databases to become better and easier to use and more standardized.

I think there is value in being able to see both level, the objects, and the relational data that makes up the objects.
Possibly - but pigs are fairly hardy, and have very few dietary limitations, so you can often buy very cheap feed, or just let them forage.

Basically - outside of the cost of the land, pork is really cheap to raise, even for small farmers. As low as $0.64/lb for commercial production, and around $2.50/lb for small farmers and families.

Current mushroom production methods are FAR more expensive (just the spore cost can be $0.50 to $1.00 per lb).

This might scale to make it cheaper, but I'd be pretty surprised. Mushrooms require much more intensive care and handling.
Don't you think that the actions of governments have a lot more to do with what happened here than Google's own policies?

1) Google is forced to do CSAM scanning and report any offending material to authorities by EU

2) they are forced to close accounts where they find this account

3) they are forced to delete any accounts so closed by GPDR regulations

This isn't Google, Facebook or LinkedIn doing this, the only thing Google has to do with this is that they're big enough to be one of the first targets of police forces of multiple nations to implement this.

How the police actually deals with these companies:

"Though the judge approved four consecutive non-disclosure orders, the court never acknowledged receipt of our motion to partially unseal, nor scheduled a hearing, and would not return counsel's phone calls seeking to schedule a hearing," Signal wrote.

Oh ... and of course, now many US states have decided that for the police's sacred duty to prevent abortions, the police do NOT have to respect their jurisdiction (they get to attack people for crimes, proven ... or not, committed elsewhere when related to abuse, like CSAM)... Sorry, but the problem here is not tech companies, except in the sense that you may be more or less exposed to this problem depending on how much private info you store with them.
The less 'real' music you listen to, the fewer royalties that Spotify has to pay to the record labels. If you're listening to more 'fake' music, then this saves Spotify money, and increases their profit margins. This is the exact same incentive behind their push into podcasts, another kind of audio content they don't have to pay royalties on. In this case, either because it's shared freely, or because they've acquired the original publisher themselves, e.g. Gimlet Media, Parcast and The Ringer.
Yes and part of the profits are generated by their fake MAU numbers (bots). They are fraudulent above all else.

I think it is a good article, technically it is "speaking diplomatically[1]" rather than "corpspeak" per se. And it is very important, and the author almost gets there.

Emotions don't belong in the workplace. They are there, but they too often don't help get things done. And yet, communicating is critical in order to both set expectations and to understand intent. Further, at least according to some references I've read, thinking diplomatically makes it possible to keep your emotions from interfering with your reasoning ability.

So if you're a manager or a leader, and you need people to work together that think poorly of each other, then you need a way to talk to them that won't amplify their negative emotions in the hope that you can maximize their ability to get stuff done. And if you are artful with it, you can have discussions about touchy subjects without getting dumped into an angry argument.

Poor leaders and managers use this to talk "over" people, generally young people who have yet to realize that conversations can have layers where what is being said on one layer is very different than the words that are coming out of the conversant's mouths. It is also popular to snipe at their fellow managers in this way.

That said, organizations that engage in a lot of "speaking in code" are often quite political, and that comes right from the top, the CEO. One of the great things about NetApp when I was there was that Dan Warmenhoven really didn't approve of that sort of crap and put a stop to it. At Google it was highly valued, and the politics reflected it[2].

An interesting warning flag is that if you are asked to say something (or hear something) that is a "bad thing" but clearly phrased in enough code to be deniable. An example would be "we need to move these employees into organizations that are more culturally compatible with the way they work." where the commonality of "these employees" is they are part of some protected class. Or "you need to get your team more focused on these deliverables" when team members have been speaking out about poor working conditions or, heaven forbid, labor actions.

At the end of the day, if a non-ambiguous statement would inflame emotions, it is going to interfere with getting stuff done. And in places where we are forced to work with people we might not normally choose not to associate with that means keeping things "diplomatic."

Interesting, I haven't heard the statement used in that way, seems like taking things a bit past their logical conclusion -- after all, the presence of a door implies that the researchers had actual offices.

I've been using PHP/SQL professionally for about 3 years with a custom framework at my workplace, and about 10 years as a hobbyist.

Today I learned there was a new company pretty much doing the SAAS we are doing, but using Firebase. I don't have that much experience with Firebase, but it got me wondering if the work we do to get data to and from the database with PHP is much more difficult than with a document like store that is used with Firebase. Do you think development platforms like Firebase have a advantages of development speed over our more traditional stack?
Leo Szilard created a petition to try and convince Japan to surrender instead of using nuclear weapons on them

I believe there were many attempts to convince Japan to surrender before using nuclear weapons on them. For example, the LeMay leaflets dropped before the bombing of Hiroshima:

Read this carefully as it may save your life or the life of a relative or friend. In the next few days, some or all of the cities named on the reverse side will be destroyed by American bombs. These cities contain military installations and workshops or factories which produce military goods. We are determined to destroy all of the tools of the military clique which they are using to prolong this useless war. But, unfortunately, bombs have no eyes. So, in accordance with America's humanitarian policies, the American Air Force, which does not wish to injure innocent people, now gives you warning to evacuate the cities named and save your lives. America is not fighting the Japanese people but is fighting the military clique which has enslaved the Japanese people. The peace which America will bring will free the people from the oppression of the military clique and mean the emergence of a new and better Japan. You can restore peace by demanding new and good leaders who will end the war. We cannot promise that only these cities will be among those attacked but some or all of them will be, so heed this warning and evacuate these cities immediately.

Then the second set of leaflets dropped before the bombing of Nagasaki:

TO THE JAPANESE PEOPLE:

America asks that you take immediate heed of what we say on this leaflet.

We are in possession of the most destructive explosive ever devised by man. A single one of our newly developed atomic bombs is actually the equivalent in explosive power to what 2000 of our giant B-29s can carry on a single mission. This awful fact is one for you to ponder and we solemnly assure you it is grimly accurate.

We have just begun to use this weapon against your homeland. If you still have any doubt, make inquiry as to what happened to Hiroshima when just one atomic bomb fell on that city.

Before using this bomb to destroy every resource of the military by which they are prolonging this useless war, we ask that you now petition the Emperor to end the war. Our president has outlined for you the thirteen consequences of an honorable surrender. We urge that you accept these consequences and begin the work of building a new, better and peace-loving Japan.

You should take steps now to cease military resistance. Otherwise, we shall resolutely employ this bomb and all our other superior weapons to promptly and forcefully end the war.

There's more than enough "I'm being attacked" signalling from the cells attacked by the actual bacteria the phage was meant to address - which is generally about where we also want the phage to be.

I don't care how painless "deployment" is when I have to manually update the ~5 different places in a single PHP script where a particular data schema is expected to be synchronized (SQL, HTML, JS).

It's really really easy to write and deploy unmaintainable code in PHP. Frankly, a little bit of friction in deployment is probably a good thing for code quality.
Pretty much by definition, that is what mushrooms and other fungi do.
GeekBench is intended as a cross-platform benchmark.

> Designed from the ground-up for cross-platform comparisons, Geekbench 5 allows you to compare system performance across devices, operating systems, and processor architectures. Geekbench 5 supports Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and Linux.

But it seems like there are a lot of other options.

https://www.phoronix.com/review/macos12-windows-linux

PC hardware sites are probably less concerned with "cross-platform" benchmarks. As long as the system hardware and operating system are the same, varying only the component you're testing, you can test with any benchmark that runs on the system.

Only two of the top six languages they list (C and C++) are associated with embedded programming.

They list their sources, it goes far beyond just IEEE's own job listings and publications. And even then, a casual perusal of IEEE's publications on the topics of computers and software will show they have a lot of non-embedded programming content. Check out the IEEE Computer Society, in particular, which has a lot of content in common with ACM's publications (in theme, at least).
Easy there. Kids may read this.

According to [0], this seems concerned with "taxation fairness"; basically making sure you don't take advantage of some possible lower tax rates (I suppose, I don't live in the UK) levied on companies instead of workers.

It's my understanding that, basically, if you're an "outsourced employee", you have to pay the same things as if you were an actual employee: so salary, income tax, whatever else HMRC requires, rather than milking the dividends... It doesn't seem to me that the actual setup is illegal.

edit: In France, I'm not aware of a similar law in regard to taxation. However, there's a "worker protection" law that says that if you're only working for a client, you are subordinate to them, and basically the only difference between an actual employee and you is that you're outsourced, you can then sue the company to be "promoted" to an internal employee, and you're basically guaranteed to win.
How can the customer demand anything with respect to surveillance if it's not clear that it's happening? Just because a certain advertising mechanism is more effective than others doesn't mean that consumers are "demanding" that advertising mechanism, especially if the data collection part of it is obfuscated from the consumer.

When you make someone head of security, there are a handful of ways they can go about it:

* They can be utterly ineffectual, ideally while looking good in the press and maintaining good relations across the company. The latter is easy when you never have to ask anyone to do anything.

* They can be effective, which requires the ability to draw on and coordinate resources far beyond security. Their ability to do this is reliant entirely on the support and backing they get from the top. This will make people angry, because it's inevitably going to lead to reshuffling priorities and making choices people dislike. It's possible to maintain good relationships while doing this, if you have strong backing and you at need to convincingly be empathetic about people's feeling while they do what you security and privacy demand.

* They can be ineffectual while trying work across the org and negotiate without backing. Eventually this just pisses people off because you're constantly asking for things and they just want you to go away.

As a security leader, your ability to maintain good relationships while being effective is contingent on how much backing you get. If you're not backed sufficiently, you cannot do both, and then you have to make awkward choices.
Hi. Great post. Thank you to raise the important topic of relevant ambient information. If you are pure tech writing new features for sales, you might want to sit right next to them. (Listen to how they use my software / interesting business problems.)

However, if you are working on credit card payment settlement, you do not give a sh-t about sales team golf scores / "amazing" drinking stories. It is a bother / nuisance. But maybe sitting next to the account team makes good sense!
