Thats true, but aircraft engines also run harder, must be lighter, and more reliable. It has been discussed elsewhere, and is a technically harder problem.

On top of that, general aviation makes up a much smaller part of the population motoring around every day, so probably less of a priority to gain political traction (until now).

That being said, I’m very happy to see an unleaded standard. It was my understanding that 100LL was not able to be transported via pipeline, which was part of the contribution to its higher cost.

i joined a startup in 2007 and we’ve had numerous pregnancies (one of our team leaders had 4 kids from 2007-2014), each followed by 6 months of maternity leave.

how did we handle it? people pick up the slack and it just works, it’s not even an option so you get by, end of story. it really is that simple.

That's true for the Federal government (although even that has loopholes you could drive a truck through, like exceptions for national security) but not for states. States have general police power and generally can regulate anything unless there it is forbidden.
Note that Lazarus isn't (yet) able to do web-based GUIs. Free Pascal only just added wasm support (not in a release yet, but it is part of the main branch), so all is needed (which TBH is kind of a big "all" :-P) is someone to make an LCL backend for it, so it might happen at some point.
I have spoken extensively with Border Patrol agents. While they were faking dog alerts, detaining me for 16+ hours, strip searching me, writing obscenely vulgur and false statements about the intimate parts of my body, and sharing it with judges and even the united states assistant attorney, cuffing and shackling me and driving me to multiple hospitals across my state for "internal examination" while doctors refused to respect my declining of consent, even though (for the first 12 hours) they had no warrant or legal mechanism to perform "medical care." While they were tossing me in jail cells, full of people I can't speak to, without being charged with any crime. While they made me perform my bodily functions in front of them, and they searched through the effects found thereafter. While they were fingerprinting / booking me without even being accused of a crime, nor arrested (which is normally only reserved for non-citizens).

They degraded me in almost every way possible, except penetrating me, and one other lady who they dragged to the same hospital as me wasn't even that lucky. Fuck em. Oh yes, I'm a US citizen (who looks white, middle class, speaks fluent hick english, normal), with an unquestionably valid passport who has never broken any border related law, and they never found anything. I would rather 100 illegals get through than any other single person be treated the way I have by border patrol. Border Patrol is a criminal organization, depriving rights under color of law and should be prosecuted under the RICO act.

Your logic doesn't hold any water. The pay gap has existed for decades. The reason they're coming now is because their countries are falling apart and they have no stability at all in their lives.

I've seen this pattern so many times in my time doing development (although I haven't done game development professionally), and why I tell people to avoid early development optimization. Trying to get things working correct and fast at the same time is an insane ammount of work, by the time you're done the requirements probably changed or the project flops, you'd be better off just getting something to satisfy minimum requirements first then make it fast.

This post had a big influence on me back in the day. When I first read it, I think it was discussed here in the context of Go, which was relatively new -- people were complaining about its use of capitalization to indicate visibility, its lack of operator overloading, and the tedium of its error handling compared to exceptions. Joel makes a good case for all three of those design choices here.

Only because the EU is preparing to force them. Apple is still very strongly against it. Recently they listed a bunch of reasons why they think it shouldn't exist.

But they know this is coming from the EU so they're probably trying to do it on their terms while they still can. Give as little as possible to the users to keep the EU off their back.
It’s time to rebrand this as the Universally Confusing Brand (UCB). The people behind USB do not understand the damage they have done to the moniker.
Great discussion here. As one of the co-authors of the paper, here is some additional information.

If you need both transactions and OLAP in the same system, the prevalent way to deliver high performance on this (HTAP) workload is to make two copies of the data. This is what we did in the SQLite3/HE work (paper: https://www.cidrdb.org/cidr2022/papers/p56-prammer.pdf; talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9bQyzm6JRU). That was quite clunky. This two copy approach not only wasted storage but makes the code complicated, and it would be very hard to maintain over time (we did not want to fork the SQLite code -- that is not nice).

So, we approached it in a different way and started to look for how we could get higher performance on OLAP queries working as closely with SQLite's native query processing and storage framework.

We went through a large number of options (many of them taken from the mechanisms we developed in an earlier Quickstep project (https://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~jignesh/publ/Quickstep.pdf) and concluded that the Bloom filter method (inspired by a more general technique called Look-ahead Information Passing https://www.vldb.org/pvldb/vol10/p889-zhu.pdf) gave us the biggest bang for the buck.

There is a lot of room for improvement here, and getting high OLAP and transaction performance in a single-copy database system is IMO a holy grail that many in the community are working on.

BTW - the SQLite team, namely Dr. Hipp (that is a cool name), Lawrence and Dan are amazing to work with. As an academic, I very much enjoyed how deeply academic they are in their thinking. No surprise that they have built an amazing data platform (I call it a data platform as it is much more than a database system, as it has many hooks for extensibility).
I’ve done this a few times. Boy do some people get mad.

In one particular case we had two implementations of some complex code with security implications. It wasn’t working with a new feature, and the author gave up and put me on the case. One implementation took an array, the other a single instance, a couple blocks were in different order and some variable names were different.

So I diff them against each other, got them identical except an outer loop, then fixed his bug.

His lead found me the next day, “why did you put this duplicate code here?” I didn’t. I just revealed it. “Oh”

Three hours later, “I removed that duplicate code.” I did not temple my fingers and say “excellent” except inside my own head.

And that is how I learned to use nerd sniping for good, not evil.
Well I called out the Model 3 specifically as it was supposed to have been the car for the masses. I consider it way too expensive for the masses, but it’s likely one of the most affordable pure EVs you can buy, even at the high price.

I suspect actual self driving to follow the Pareto principle. The last 20% will take 80% of the time. And I’m not even convinced we’ve hit the 80% yet, anyway.

I'm saying that the economics will drive adoption regardless of political structures. The folks in power will be surveilled too, whether they like it or not (if nothing else they have to surveil each other!) The more power you have, the more people study you.

The "constant and intrusive surveillance as a counterinsurgency tactic" is a side-effect. And frankly, we should be so lucky that it works (when it works.) I personally think the time for deciding things by violence-- any violence --has passed.

In re: political power, we'll see how it plays out in different systems. In China the question is, Will CCP members be subject to the Social Credit System?

In democracies we should be able to reshape our systems to take advantage of modern technology to make boring, functioning governing bodies that "just work", but we have to get from here to there.
Globalization made every good much, much cheaper. Yes, it made some people rich, and some people lost their job, but everyone benefited from either the cheap goods or better job opportunities.
Absolutely! Traffic calming can play a role. In fact I have been working with the County on traffic calming here. But their process is silly: paper ballots sent to homeowner’s (but not apartment renters!) along the road and a 67% turnout is required for a vote to pass.

We worked hard canvassing and educating and “only” got a 52% turnout and a 100% yes vote for traffic calming. So the vote failed.

I wrote a 10 page report on all of the ballot design failings, administrative issues, equity issues, etc and they are reforming the program and introducing digital ballots. Still working on that 67% requirement though (a recent 9 figure school bond passed with a 37% turnout).

As someone involved in election systems to some degree it was eye opening seeing something so poorly designed and executed.

That said traffic calming isn’t necessary if the roads are designed to prioritize pedestrians from the beginning. It is a patch to a bad design- or at least a design that prioritizes the wrong thing.
Conspiracy theories also work in ways that are unsettling.

'Kernel of Truth' is that obviously there are policing problems in the USA, much of race related. Surely Kaepernick's 'kneeling' was in good faith initially. But eventually, they made an icon out of him, and he had to keep the 'Faith'. His continued claims of NFL owners being like 'slavers' and specific aspects of the NFL recruiting process like that are basically repulsive, race-bating conspiracy theorizing. Netflix was happy to play along for the views, and the 'controversy' was likely to get them some attention.

Which points to the missing item in that very long list of items, and that is just marginal conspiratorialism is useful in all industries - particularly politics and entertainment. Controversy makes headlines, conspiratorial headlines are controversial.
This is why listings on Amazon are a million words long. They do an adequate job pulling important attributes into the metadata so you can filter on them, for some categories. For example, the size and type of TVs. But it's not really possible to do that for all product categories. Moreover, users can't easily see the attributes in the search page, so it's best to just put it all in the title. For things like motherboards, they get super dense with jargon.
If you live in Europe, then be specific. Directly comparing the US to EU doesn't make sense.

I think it makes sense if we can encourage people who would have otherwise traveled by car to try out the train. I mean that's the whole point, right? If we want to "give everyone a little something", we should increase capacity as well.
QEMU is incredibly helpful when debugging issues very early in OS startup (like before console prints work). This sort of debugging was invaluable when working on FreeBSD NUMA stuff and doing things like backing the vm page array with node-local physical memory.

My colleague, who is working on kboot for FreeBSD (to run the FreeBSD bootloader as a linux binary that kexec's into FreeBSD from a linuxboot environment) also found QEMU an invaluable tool.

In both cases, I think QEMU probably cut development time by 50% or more.

I've done this. I lead a lean team and took parental leave last year.

* Start now by trusting your team with absolutely anything you can. For about 2 months before my leave, I was extremely explicit with my team that I was attempting to deprecate myself. I wanted feedback on what they thought were risks.

* Consider using the time for someone else to "test try" your job. Think someone would be interested in being a manager, it's their time to try it. You will need to be explicitly clear that they own your job while you're out and they will need to make changes as they see fit.

* Ask your boss or peer to do 1:1's with the person stepping in your place

On my team, this was pretty successful. It created an opportunity for me to step to the next level and someone else to follow in behind me. That situation won't be true for all teams. However, startups are intended to grow. Grow your people now, so you're ready when you really need them.
