I'll bet they've put more thought into it than someone only just reading about it now. :P

It's not like huge underground tanks of petrol or high current electricity in close proximity of people are without risk either.

Seriously though, to operate one of these you'd have to have liability insurance. So the manufactured would have to put some engineering into making it an insurable risk before anyone will buy and install it.

One could speculate that they might even have started with the max amount of kinetic energy they could safely contain and worked backwards to get that 17,000rpm * half ton answer.

D3.js was a pleasure to read. Especially as a developer who was starting to get out of my junior phase and really understand what I was doing in terms of JS.

It’s a very simple code-base in many ways. At the time it was 10k lines of mostly short pure functions.

The code examples were also really nice and explained a lot about how to work with SVG.

I owe some Thanks to Mike Bostok and his fellow developers.
> you can't pay them enough so you can have dedicated 24/7 support by real humans.

You absolutely can pay them enough to have this. Nearly anyone giving Google $100k+ per year will have a rep assigned.

The problem is the rep is nearly powerless - lots of account problems the rep can't help solve - all they can do is issue refunds/goodwill-compensation in cases like this. They can internally message the team responsible, but in a bunch of cases they can't reverse auto-bans.
> I love working alone. You get to fully express yourself, and to work on what feels right, even if it's not the top priority right now.

I just started literally this and it is so liberating. I got so amazed by the whole Stable Diffusion movement that I started building a UI for making a more efficient workflow when it comes to image synthesis for myself. I'm building it 100% for myself, but I also sell the UI on Patreon for others to grab if they want it, and surprisingly, others like it too, even if I'm mainly building it for myself!

But the change of pace from "We need this ASAP, drop everything else" to "Hm, this feature sounds risky but fun to implement, lets give it a try" is so nice that I'm basically getting a high from working on the project.
Completely agree. If they are going to remove deadweight, Google's leaders must be the first to go. My friends have been telling me about these inefficiencies for years and they have done nothing about it. Google has one of the greatest concentrations of talented engineers of any business in history. What did Google's leadership position these engineers to build?

When you look at Sundar Pichai, what exactly has he brought to the table? Which unique insights and strategic decisions from the CEO have made Google richer? It's not enough to point at the profit growth; Google owns a historical money-making machine in its Ads business and any half decent administrator could have increased its profits over the past years.

Android phone: Probably - the worst that could happen is you get locked out of the play store and have to make a new account.

Ha ha that's exactly what would happen if FreeCAD was a company and had a product manager, but it's very unlikely that would happen organically.

Maybe some day a megacorp will get so pissed off by solidworks licensing that they fork FreeCAD, rewrite opencascade, fix the high priority bugs, and release code+binaries out of spite. A man can dream.

You (and many others) might well be using RAID1 mirrors without problems. I did as well. But the problems here are not encountered during day-to-day usage. They are bugs in the recovery codepaths following hardware failures. I suffered this due to a transient SATA cable glitch, but the instructions let you exactly reproduce this with qemu with a recent kernel. I've not tried the qemu approach myself; I moved over to ZFS a good while back now.

I've had a hunt for the specific instructions but I'm afraid I can't find it again with a search. The gist of it was to:

- create Btrfs mirror using two qemu virtual disks

- pull the (virtual) plug on one of the pair to disconnect it, then later reconnect it

- Btrfs ends up hosing both the outdated and current copies of the mirror, leading to complete dataloss of the entire mirror
This is entirely fair. Neglecting infrastructure investment is a business choice.

Agreed, I used to run enterprise hardware at home, and it was certainly fun to tinker with (Not to mention all of the blinking lights!).

Last year I ran some numbers and realized that it just wasn't worth it, as electricity costs alone make it fairly close to what Hetzner/OVH would charge for similar hardware. I also had power go down in my area, for probably first time in 5 years or so that I lived there, which I took as a sign to just migrate away.

I peer it into my internal network using WireGuard, so I barely notice a difference in my use and now that electricity costs are skyrocketing in Europe I'm certainly very happy I went this route.
The only differences you need to worry about:

1) OS version

2) CPU architecture - M1 vs x86

Besides that, the different models only differ in terms of processing power and specific peripherals (extra cores for hardware-accelerated ML, etc). You'd already know if any of those specific mattered to you.

Typical basic example where tailwind fails is styling text and i don't mean styling html generated from user markdown. (that is given - impossible to do with tw)

When you have any text on page like a heading - tailwind approach is for you to set ".text-xl .leading-tight .tracking-tight" ok fine. Your designer is then like. "Yeah on mobile the fontsize must be much smaller and thus tracking+leading bigger" (because these 3 are tightly related) then he will also want the heading even bigger on big screens (and decrease tracking+leading). Suddenly you are juggling 9 classes that also have some fixed value. So you look into Figma and see that on mobile the leading of this style of heading is 1.27. On laptops its 1.14 and on big screen it's 1.035. So what now - will you change the design or will you add new utility classes specifically for this heading?

So you realize the best approach is to create one class .text-heading-1 and use css - that solves all the issues and it's super easy to change moving forward when you need some fine grained responsive adjustment.

The great thing about TW is that it's very fine grained in html but on the other hand it's bad at being explicit and precise like css is. I think the reason people like TW so much is that huge chunk of web work is layouting. Flex here, justify there and add gap. No more pain to target/name element just because you need to add margin and flex.

Theming is OK to some point (like making dark version) but if you need to make broader changes between multiple themes it just crumbles.
It's absolutely fine and I'd argue essential to know Linux system administration even for people who mostly work in the cloud. From my recent experience sys admin skills seem to be a lost art - people no longer have to care about the underpinnings of a Linux system and when problems hit it shows.

It's interesting from a job market standpoint how little incentive there is to learn the basics when more and more we are seeing developers being made responsible for ops and admin tasks.

I can't even expand half the acronyms in this article. When do people have time to work on anything besides keeping their "system" up to date. python-is-python2? Maybe use sed to write all your code, too.
More clearly, "SAN certificates" aren't a thing. Since PKIX all certificates in the Web PKI were required to have the Internet's names on them as SANs. For several years now, web browsers only look at the SANs to make decisions. The Common Name from the X.500 system is only there for humans to look at, and for legacy software which still thinks that's a good idea decades after we explained why it isn't. Ideally we'd one day get rid of it (wastes bytes on the wire), but I won't hold my breath.

Unlike the Common Name, which is arbitrary human text (so e.g. " oops.example" is a valid name despite that space at the start, as are "c-programming.example\0\0\0" and "Ł0Ł.example") the SANs are defined so that it's harder to screw up and a machine can reliably just bit-for-bit compare the data. There are two main kinds: IpAddress SANs are defined for the IPv4 or IPv6 address just as bits, you can't express 200.300.400.500 as an IpAddress, whereas that's a (stupid but) valid Common Name; DnsName SANs are defined using a restricted character set and as specifically the ASCII LDH DNS hostname subset, which makes it much less tempting to try to incorrectly write a Unicode name here, what's actually required is the ASCII LDH name, ie Punycode.

True, but I often have to format for github and it's simply easier to have pandoc within my flow to do things like not escape underscores, control heading levels etc.
You can go for a Macbook Air without any issues, everything will work the same between the Air and the Pro (and iMac, and Mac Mini, etc.) since they all operate under the same operating system, macOS.

As a personal advice, you can go with a M1 or M2, depending on your budget, either are really fast processors. However, the standard 8 GiB of RAM really bothers me and I hate the fact Apple still sells some computers with so little memory. I you plan to use this computer ONLY for testing your Electron app, you can go with the basic 8 GiB of RAM, but I REALLY recommend you to upgrade to 16 GiB.

Also, if you're on a budget, check out Apple's refurb or Backmarket, but go with a M1/M2 processor anyway, there is no point to use a Intel chip today.

While being new is a factor within a group, many layoffs focus on which groups and roles to cut.

My general ordered preference is to try to be in a buisiness that won't be affected, then a group that isn't affected within a buisiness that is, then I may prefer to be a person that is affected within a group that is, it really depends on how miserable the job is going to be which may not actually compare favorably to finding a new one in a recession.

Julia mode for Emacs, Vim, and VSCode lets you to use LaTeX-like sequences: write \pm, press <TAB>, and you get ±

Of course, this only works if your editor supports this and you are using a language similar to Julia. But there are two more general methods that are applicable everywhere. The first was mentioned by db48x: I have customized my Xmodmap file so that greek letters and a few typographic characters I use often can be typed using AltGr combinations. (Unfortunately, this is much more complicated if you use Windows.)

Secondly, I heavily use Espanso [1], so that I can easily type complicated letters/sequences (e.g., my email address) for which it would be too overkill to assign an AltGr keybinding.

Finally, in Emacs and Kitty (my terminal emulator) there is a keybinding that asks for the name of an Unicode symbol and enters it. (In Emacs it's C-x 8 <Enter>, in Kitty Shift+Ctrl+u.)

From the point of view of my workflow, the problem of quickly typing Unicode characters is completely solved.

They apparently go for 20-60$/IP. That can tell us something about why large IP holders don't want IPv6, it would reduce their 'investment' to near 0.
Interesting. What about the opposite? "Similar from" sounds incorrect to me. So why do we prefer "different from" and "similar to" vs. "different to" and "similar from"? Why is there any implicit directionality?
Not the news articles generated by bots that take in words written by humans then run them through a lawnmower. Now that's what I consider a reliable source.
"Food" is a vastly broader category of possible substitutable commodities than water is. And it's a stretch to claim it's entirely the work of free markets that ensures our food supply - agriculture is pretty heavily subsidised in most modern economies.
I'm quite willing to accept that we would see some more innovative ways of supplying water to cities if there was less public control over it. I also agree that water should be more expensive in places that it's hard to supply to (which should help discourage too many people from living there) - but no government is going to let its voters die of thirst, and is just as strongly motivated to maintain supply as competing private enterprises might be.
At least ~half the 'BigCo is being unreasonable' stories here have another side where the poster was doing something terrible (eg. sharing child porn on their google drive account), and then complaining when their account gets blocked for 'no reason'.

The BigCo can't typically make any comment when this happens - merely say 'we have investigated and decided to uphold the ban', and then they look unreasonable.

Sometimes the unreasonable thing is done by malware on the users computer/phone, so even the user isn't aware, but from BigCo's perspective it all looks the same.

BigCo processes are still opaque, but often the outcomes aren't as unreasonable as they seem.

I worked in the domain name industry for 4 years. Be careful which TLD you rent (you never buy it). If it’s free, it’s a bad deal, just don’t take it. If it’s a ccTLD (2 characters) not of your own country, don’t take it. Eligibility rules routinely change and you could get kicked out overnight. UK residents lost eligibility to .eu with Brexit for instance. Be careful with sexy ccTLDs such as .io or .so, they belong to small countries which sometimes don’t have a proper resilient infrastructure, and you expose yourself to more DNS issues. A lot of new gTLDs (ie. tlds other than .com, .net, .org and .info) suck ass and were created by speculators. Be very careful. I would only buy a gTLD managed by Google (.app, .dev), Donuts.inc, or Radix. Most of the other crap is not reliable enough to me.

If you can, just stick to .com, .net, or the ccTLD of your country.

Use tailwind as much as possible until you feel like you need a class then use BEM for the naming/organisation. It's actually pretty practical system - with headwind the non TW classes sort to the front so you can immediately see if there is something more in css.
