Well, I am reminded on this forum very often that any poor software product is most likely because developers are not compensated fairly for their work.
I don't remember the names of the books, but I loved the one where Bean started out as a city kid (Amsterdam maybe it was?)

I enjoyed the whole series. The first book is the best IMO, and the piggy world was the worst, but had some interesting ideas in it. I still think a lot about the sub-vocalization technology.

Bean was great, though. I think more than Ender.
It depends on your size of company. You might get a small company doing a one-off equalization that pays you way above the local rate but the reason most companies have presence in foreign markets is that labor is cheaper. When that labor increases then they move elsewhere to keep costs down. It's the whole reason for having foreign locations for most US companies. If it got to the stage where wages are starting to get such that the RoI isn't there then the company will pull out and bring the jobs home.
It's not in the general, constant sense that you have to worry about, but rather in specific applications. When you're out in public, "they" will have 3-meter-accuracy, more than enough. But when you're in stores, and malls, and other venues where UWB is set up, then that's where real problems begin. They'll be able to track which advertisements you linger around, and which sections you visit.

It's going to be a whole new category of passive location tracking.
I found getting a prescription for bupropion from my doctor made quitting much easier. That was 20 years ago now.
This is a specialty application. I don't think it's going to be big enough to drive consumer technology like gaming?

Particularly since cloud services are likely to be competitive and work for anyone.
If MS Outlook started refusing to communicate with 163.com, would it be fair to say that email had banned 163.com? Would it be fair to say that email users had to work around this block?

I think it's an issue with MS Outlook, not with email.

AFAIK, the two apps that blocked gab were Tusky and Toot!. This isn't like all email clients were doing this. The other thing is that local server admins blocked gab en masse. This is why you should find an instance that matches your requirements.
>LA county water districts are further busy cleaning recycled water enough to pump as potable,

San Diego started doing this decades ago, and it has worked out all right. "Toilet to tap," was the slogan the detractors came up with, and it stuck. My concern for LA would be industrial waste water in their waste streams.
Definitely a time for change, but that doesn't invalidate my argument about equal pay
Wages have never been based on value produced, at any time, in any industry.

Although there may be some coordination, coordination isn't necessary for wages to be unrelated to value produced, because that's the default condition. It would take some impressive central planning to have wages actually match value produced.

Doctrinaire economists used to argue that value produced sets an upper bound on pay, since why would a company pay someone more than the value they produce? But there are plenty of exceptions to that, discussed for instance in David Graeber's book Bullshit Jobs.
Does this same logic also apply to the price of goods and services you consume? For example, when you go to a restaurant in your location, do you pay them the same as an equivalent meal would cost in US/UK? The chef there is just as talented as one in the US, and the value of satisfying a human's hunger should be the same irrespective of location.
Interesting fact that under the hood it's based on tANS introduced by Jarosław Duda from Jagiellonian University:

Just days ago they said they regretted doing it before and wouldn't do it again. How on earth can anything Cloudflare say be trusted now - the CEO literally inverted his stated position within, what, a few days?
Good advice. I do think the arguments these companies use is ridiculous. I think it's possible that these companies are knowingly exploiting OP because he comes from a lower economic background. I say this as an Australian where tech jobs here pay about half or a third as much as a US startup job yet I've never had any startups try offer me an Australian rate.

I wonder if there's more to this story? E.g. does OP work for a consulting company, an outsourcing company, freelance, does he use project-based job marketplaces? I am just wondering the situation.
The 5 is okay.

After owning many Google phones since the Nexus era I think Google should really focus on making good mid-range phones and simply give up on the high-end entirely. It's not like they're really trying to sell hardware anyway (you can't buy them in most of the world) so I doubt it makes any real money. The fact the Pixel line looks like a hobby project year after year is just sad at this point.
There's also a lot of politics and social psychology involved in these things. From the government side, it can be decades between arranging, deploying and evaluating large scale, population-wide cancer screenings. These are timescales on which scientific consensus can easily change. Mammograms in particular are a touchy subject, since newer metastudies only show a statistically significant reduction in mortality for women above the age of 50 and below the age of 74 [1]. However, many policy makers still offer screenings starting at the age of 40 with no upper limit, despite evidence that annual mammograms will result in a false positive result over 10 years with up to 61% probability [2]. Below the age of 50, regular mammograms may even increase the risk of dying from breast cancer [3]. Ultrasound screenings on the other hand would be much safer from a radiation-exposure point of view and metastudies suggest they can detect cancers under difficult conditions more reliably, but they also suffer from more false positives [4]. This is where the social aspect comes in, where many woman fear getting their breasts removed for no reason. This is especially concerning when more than 50% of positive results are found to be false positives [5]. To summarize: It's really hard to figure out what amounts to "net positive benefit" when it comes to general public screenings.

"If the company is willing to pay me that amount in a different location, why can't it pay me the same here?"

Because capitalism. Or more specifically because your company has very little incentive to pay you more than the market rate in your locale, unless you give them one. You can either try to do that as an individual by basically saying "I'll quit if you don't pay me more" or you can try to do it collectively with your fellow devs by organising and engaging in collective bargaining. Both paths are risky because your local employer might call your bluff (how special are you?) or even if you manage to get a collective bargaining agreement, there is no guarantee the parent company won't take a look at your division, decide that the numbers no longer add up and offshore your job somewhere even cheaper.

"What would the company gain if I work from a different location that they would pay me more?"

Having you, pyrodactyl work from a different locations? Your employer would probably gain nothing. Having a presence and hence a team in another location with a pyrodactyl-like employee doing pyrodactyl-like things. Probably quite a lot. Which is why companies don't generally off shore the entirety of their development teams even though that would be cheaper.
The cost of living point is very valid. A great salary in Hanoi is most likely to be a very low wage in San Francisco. You can't expect an employer to pay way above the local market rate for a position. Bottom line, they will always find someone to work if they offer a bit above the local market rates. The salary, whatever miles away makes no difference.

As far as how to deal with it, look a round you I bet your salary is a very good wage for the area you live in. If not then find a job with a local company that pays better. Software developers get paid well all over the world relative to where they live.

BTW, even with the wages in Silicon Valley, most developers there can't afford a house close to where they work. Inability to buy a house with local wages is a common problem in the big cities of the world so it's not an issue related to your area alone.
You know there's a reason you don't offer even a single drink to a recovering alcoholic, right?

A single drink is unlikely to hurt anyone, as long as it stays a single drink.

There are a lot of people who can do a good job of not having that first drink, but have a really hard time stopping once they've had it.

And beer is the beverage of choice of a surprising number of alcoholics.

So yeah, for a lot of people, drinking a beer makes them want more.
Thanks for actually trying that out. Surprisingly few tits with those asses. The (animal) ass-tit chimeras are amusing.

>And nobody knows why it's connecting...

I highly doubt that. I'm sure the people that wrote the code know exactly what it is doing. Does the number of knowledgable coders vs the poplulation of the planet approach nobody when rounding?
Following this, their ISP, their electric company, their server hosting location, and presumably their government (with their monopoly on violence) also helped them run a DDoS network.

What's next, is the landscaper helping run the DDoS network because they cut the grass outside so people can access the building better?
Wasn't there a huge thread on this? I can't see that now.
I'm just pointing out the coordination because it's typical for employers to shame workers for talking pay while engaging in it themselves and lots of people I know believe it at face value. Owners shame people over it because they're scared of it because it works

I loved Graeber/Wengrow's last book, transformative, need to read BS Jobs (do other yc folks read graeber? I know for instance he tears down a few points others like andreessen and horowitz take for granted as axiomatic to their ideologies based on a recent interview with them; pardon the surprise to see you reference it)

That's at the heart of the issue. From a distance, it always feels uncharitable to many people to criticise anything about Wikipedia at all.

But bear in mind this criticism comes from Wikipedians – some of the people who actually wrote the encyclopedia you love, and did so for free – and it criticises Wikimedia, not Wikipedia. They are not the same thing.

Most of the Wikimedia executives are recent arrivals who only came once there was money. They have never written a Wikipedia article. Some can't even figure out how to leave a talk page message, and they couldn't tell you which side of a diff shows the new version of an article and which the old.
> There might be fewer use cases for it now

There are massive use cases for it, but not at the people level. Low latency tasks such as edge AI classification, IOT interaction, and game streaming are all currently limited to WiFi only.

> Once that infrastructure is built people will use it.

This is a fallacy.
There was, and nbcnews is really not the place to go for information on this sort of thing.
This was all very new to me and quite awesome. Are there any good companies to invest in who are going to be riding the wave of this tech?
So many people confuse it with an ‘f’. E.g. search for the word “Jagermeifter” for a good laugh :-)
Hah, I've reached 12 too and I'm currently stuck there with no idea how to move forward....
I’ve never hear of people going to a game to watch the same game on their phones. That’s not what it’s for. The real use case is for communicating with others and uploading selfie videos
Perhaps share the code privately with someone in another jurisdiction that is more suitable (reverse engineering laws, copyright, whatever), and that person can take the legal liability? Perhaps someone who owns a scanner like user yesimahuman in this thread?
> Sure, but will that be a better place to work?

If an employer doesn't give developers local admin rights on their machines, I'm quite certain it's not going to be a better place to work for me.
Huh, IQ Air does have specs and prices:

https://www.iqair.com/us/whole-house-air-purifiers/buy

That’s… a lot more expensive than Aprilaire for only slightly better performance. Two or three Aprilaire (or Lennox, etc) filters in parallel will dramatically outperform the Perfect 16 and will cost much less. Of course, that would require some custom sheet metal, but the Perfect 16 may also need some custom sheet metal.
What does it buy you or protect you from? You are totally irrelevant to Google as a datapoint as you are just another ID lost in the noise. It only matters when who you are suddenly becomes important. If you stay unimportant then who really cares?
It’s just because of spam. All open systems that do not impose a cost to participate are destroyed by spam.
DKIM and SPF, along with DMARC are more about authentication - they let you know that the message has come from where it says it does. This makes spoofing harder, not necessarily spam. Greylisting deals with most of the "spray and prey" spammers, though it does have it's own issues.
> If you are going for "unless The Pravda publishes it, it's all libelous lies and I'm not going to read it" - you are either grasping at straws or are willing to blind yourself for partisan reasons.

It's called vetting your sources. Also, funny you should mention Pravda, when Zero Hedge is actually pretty close to that caliber of publication from what I can tell.

> Just read the freaking emails

It's not about the e-mails, but the context around them. I can't trust a far-right rag that peddles conspiracy theories to provide analysis with any degree of nuance, and without omitting key facts. "Doing your own research" will more often than not just lead you into the dark, unless you have training and experience to select good sources, weed out BS and half-truths, and follow up on leads where necessary.

> Because you are going to ignore people who are actually willing to investigate things, and only believe "reputable" ones - i.e. ones who by definition are part of the system that implements the censorship

How are reputable investigative journalists "by definition" part of the system that implements censorship? There has been plenty of reputable investigative journalism of government wrongdoing over the past few years — even in the "MSM". Unless you believe that the government and media act as one giant, unanimous bloc? That's a bit crazy.

> There's no such thing as "gentleman's agreement" with the federal government that can destroy your business and your life.

Can you cite any examples of the government crushing a private company in recent times due to not acquiescing to their demands? Based on your tone, you seem to believe that the federal government is in a position to do something drastic like imprison a CEO or revoke a corporate charter when faced with resistance. I don't think that's remotely plausible, unless we're talking National Security Letters or something. (Which are a big issue, but not directly relevant here.)
As someone who invested in Amyris (heavily mentioned in these articles) last year with much the same thinking as the author… be very careful about betting against incumbent tech.
I think diversity is best done by making it lore friendly and not just retconning things.

Making characters and nations with real substance is far more fun than just going back and changing something for political reasons.

I would rather see an introduction of african type regions in allegory for empires like The malian empire, Abyssinian Empire, Ajuuran Sultanate, or others rather than throw blacks into european type settings.

Even if we wanted to add blacks into europe type settings we could at least add lore reasons.

Many blacks were in spain under muslim rule and even at times the rulers of muslim areas of spain were black.

Just say that part of the continent was invaded, bam you can add in non-whites in a european setting.

We can do these things tastefully and add interesting lore.

As a black man I find it insulting to be given token characters of no substance, I would rather no inclusion than low effort shoe-ins.
You're sort of circling around Kant's Categorical Imperative, which is articulated as, act only in such a way that one would be willing to see enacted as a universal moral law.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Categorical_imperative

When you let that percolate for a bit, you get to, "Treat others only in such a way as you yourself are alright with being treated.

Your self-defense example resonates with this way of life, as the person seeking to do you harm has telegraphed they are fine with you reacting in kind.

You cannot just murder anyone, as if no one is engaging in you, the idea is that one best should reciprocate only in kind. Most moral systems pre Kantian Categorical Imperative, are crippled by not being able to justify being moral as an end in and of itself just from the tenets within the system itself.

I would not, under the categorical imperative, censure either group in this case, as I am not willing to accept mob justice as something I am comfortable being applicable to me. Both parties, however, have have demonstrated that they are willing to accept being treated in that manner through their actions, though Transwomen moreso at this point than the users of KF. KF has merely existed.

Therefore, at this point, any follower of the Categorical Imperative can engage in mob/vigilante justice against either Transwomen/KF with clear conscience, as it has veen clearly evinced, that is how they wish to be dealt with, and this doesn't taint not engaging in mob justice/vigilantism against anyone else, as it is always the first mover that sets the level on which the interaction takes place.

It's where the Golden Rule "Treat others as you would have them do unto you" stems from.
Unreal Rust
My brother in laws sister was recently diagnosed with cancer. Before she was diagnosed, she quit her job with benefits to stay home and take care of her father with advanced Parkinson’s. Her cancer is treatable and has a high probability of being curable, but she doesn’t have and can’t get insurance and doesn’t qualify for government help. Her choice is death or go into such incredible debt that she will never have hope to pay it off. She is 29. She has chosen death.
I mostly used Cascade Complete powder (there was a point early in the pandemic when I had to grab whatever was on the shelf) and use Cascade Platinum packs.

A couple months back we ran out of packs and had some powder leftover, so I ran a load with the powder. I ended up having to run the load again once we got the packs.
Don't think grammatical ambiguity in the names of labor tactics is a significant bottleneck here.
Everything's relative. I've had about 8 MRIs in the last few years.

I also wouldn't bat an eye at spending $1k on preventative care each year. Many Americans are paying that annually for premium TV shows.
Python is and has been a go to language for writing vim plugins. We've seen its limitations in the vim community. The same is true for Javascript and Typescript (which I personally love).

NeoVim picked Lua and every Lua based plugin I've seen has been extremely impressive in its speed.

I don't love Lua - I don't know it so well and find it a little difficult to read and write - but I can't argue with the results. Python is not the right decision nor is JS.

Only other language I could see is rust given its speed, safety, and interoperability with C but Rust also has a lot of ceremony which is great but not as conducive to the plugin author community (a lot of additional overhead).
What other semantics could a TLSA record on a _25._tcp subdomain possibly have?
Quiet firing is also better know as organizational failure. Your employer has decided to pay below market wage so cannot hire or retain staff. Those willing to stay work at market equilibrium effectiveness
You might think that it's silly to complain about having to directly pay for an adversarial program to run, but try to imagine how it could bother other people.
Let’s not compare someone’s political/cultural stance to their choice of phones. One is fairly inconsequential, the other one directly affects others’ lives.
Yeah the tone has some arrogance thats for sure. Maybe it would be a wet dream of some startup CTO but in some bigger, more stable and older corporations this would just trigger Next! response.

The author is clearly experienced in very narrow set of IT reality and not much more, he would fall into promising junior category if he would skip the arrogant part.

For each question, I would point out our massive set of existing rigid processes and give back immediately: how would you improve on that while still being compliant on them? Companies are not there to baby sit juniors with big egos, they have products to deliver that mostly uses IT just as part of the overall process. They like improvements, but only those that keep things working seamlessly, on budget and time.

The article does provide interesting, educational details, but it also engages in a lot of gratuitous cheerleading of the BEIC and makes comparisons to modern day startups. Wonks celebrating imperialism for business lessons. It’s ghoulish and absurdly tasteless. You can expect something like that from say the War Nerd, but the style and framing of this article is just wildly inappropriate.
I usually put some in the prewash area.
It always depends on the area of focus. You can also consistently choose the default int type to signed while being fully aware of you lose half range but gain signed integer arithmetic. For me I am mostly doing system and networking so I tends to to unsigned. The key is to choose a consistent default while aware of that you are in a non-intuitive zone when that default type puts you in.
Also these people seem to not read much about the works they mess with, there are plenty of non-white factions in lotr that have less set lore about them.

We can easily add in lore friendly blacks and do it in a way that makes less spoken about factions more interesting.

Why do low effort tokenism when you can do something interesting and still diverse?

All it takes is a bit of effort.
