This article, like many on this topic, speak as if there is an absolute truth. Like agile vs waterfall vs "cool framework of the day TM," you will always be able to find successes and failures for each methodology. Each company is unique. There is no right or wrong. There is no evil conspiracy theory.

While markets are far from perfect, this does seem to be a problem capitalism can and will solve. Companies need to attract talent - engineers will vote with their feet if this is important to them. And, companies need to perform - if WFH truly doesn't work it will become apparent very soon (or conversely, if it works far better than in-office, the next crop of world class companies will all be remote).

One thing that is relatively undisputed common knowledge is that company culture and norms become ever more critical as a team scales. The startups and companies that navigate this the best will likely be highly intentional about whatever path they take, and both new and existing employees will be naturally repelled/attracted based on how much this suits them.

This should be a good thing. You, as an employee, get to pick whichever one you want. Just ask questions so you know what you are getting into.
Use a HUD.

I had a 90s Cadillac that had a FLIR HUD display. It was a little gimmicky but pretty cool and better than polluting the surroundings.
Does this apply also to laptop parts?
Agreed. We just need to manage the transition prudently to mininise impact to lives and economies.

This past weekend I found myself in a mall in the East Bay (Bishop Ranch in San Ramon) and holy carp was it bumping with people, like a mall from before the before times. A big open central courtyard with families hanging out all over this fake grass, kids riding the escalator to gawk at people from the second level, I was like "what year is this?" A lot of the shops and restaurants were more bougie than those of past malls, there was a big Williams Sonoma, eating options included The Slanted Door, Mendocino Farms, Delarosa Pizza, so a far cry from the Sbarro and Cinnabon style of the classic mall. Maybe that's their secret.
> Truth is a significant portion of employees, in my experience, advocate for work from home because they want the chance to slack off.

You don't need to be WFH to slack off. People have been slacking off in offices since the office was invented.

True. Clothes are perhaps the only thing that can be hard to shop online. However, getting the wrong fit when shopping online is kind of understandable. The real frustration for me comes from brands that fail to size their clothes properly. How hard is it to make all jeans models of your brand to measure the same waist-wise and length-wise?

This is almost certainly the sum and totality of it. Edge cases? Sure. But it's pretty obvious that portion size has something to do with it, when a standard "American breakfast" rocks in at near a thousand calories (before adding juice and sides).
In theory, just in theory, you can build into the RAM chip a small ROM section containing malicious code that is completely disconnected and undetectable from outside but kicks in and adds its own executable code when a magic word coming from the outside is written somewhere in the RAM.

That may sound weird, but it's actually off-the-shelf tech for a couple of decades now: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Light_Processing It's already the most common projector technology, not something new they're developing just for this.

1.3 million mirrors is actually low-resolution by modern standards.
F# is the closest I've found. A pro/con of F# is the .NET ecosystem which has many C#-isms which both accelerate library development and detract from functional styles.

- functional
- type inference (but not so much to slow down compilation)
- not too heavy on type abstraction
- multi-threaded
- local heaps for actors
- cross-platform

I'm also disappointed that Pony doesn't have as wide adoption as Rust or Zig.
I’ve spent few years trying to build my own browser engine ~15 years ago, when they were much much simpler.

You cannot make a useable, modern engine without such huge investments.

But it’s a cool hobby project.

In over 20 years of driving, even in rural areas with lots of deer and other critters, I can count on one hand the number of times I've intentionally turned on my hi-beams.

If your night vision is that bad, the solution isn't to blind other drivers by turning the road into the midday sun.
There is no rationale given as to “why plaintext.” HTML can be much more expressive in a shorter amount of authoring time.
Then produce distinct legislation that bans the specific practices used, otherwise it's just giving preference to currently entrenched forms of money laundering.

It's not illegal whatsoever to mix up my dollar bills with a group of other people and get the same amount out that I put in. Such a statement is ridiculous.

What do you mean "Tech is moving fast"? I am not asking for the routers to be equipped with new features support. Just the features it was shipped with to keep being usable.

One of the main reasons to buy these SMB routers over consumer grade devices is usable VPN support. A lot of those small companies use their routers only for Internet access in their offices plus router-based VPN for remote employee, support or admin access to intranet. In a lot of cases it is essentially the reason to choose these devices over anything else.
Our food chain has a lot to do with obesity. There are many studies on this stuff.

We eat 5 times as much meat on average as people did 100 years go. Animal based products are a major source of fat. People used to eat more fruits and vegetables. The fat type has shifted with more fat (which has higher calorie per gram amounts than carbs or protein) and fat moving from polyunsaturated fats to saturated fats (which causes lots of medical problems).

In there is the growth hormone. Kids "mature" physically at younger ages now than they used to. Kids to stop stop dairy or a lot of mean may physically mature at the older slower pace.

Eating less fruits, vegetables, and whole grains means less fiber. Most people (in the US anyway) are deficient in fiber. Fiber traps certain fats and cholesterols so they aren't absorbed. So, we absorb more fats.

Then there are processed foods.

So much about our diets have changed in the last 100 years. A lot is known and we even know how to eat to be really healthy. It's just not widely known by the general public.
Its not just checks and balances though. You have to pledge allegiance to these arbitrary people. No self-respecting individual would do that.

> I know this sounds floaty, but we live in a relatively stable country where transitions of power have traditionally been without great anxiety

Yeah... but that happens in many Republics too. It is not unique to Canada and is not a reason to have a monarchy.

> the Queen has been largely seen as a novelty, a nice decoration on a shelf.

We can get away with that because in reality that is what she is.

In these modern times there is no reason to have some special family enshrined to the the point you have to pledge allegiance to them or a country has to depend on them.
It's a service specifically designed for privacy. A human right.

> but there's nothing changing our metabolism.

Why would you be so confident when we know for a fact that hormone imbalances can absolutely impact our metabolism. Including signaling to your body to produce and store more fat than it normally would. Cortisol the hormone produced in stress responses is shown to do exactly that. Using yourself as an anecdote isn't useful in anyway.
Yes, it's bad in the US, but obesity is rising worldwide. Obesity, in general, correlates with GDP per capital.
I think maybe I didn't explain that well.

I didn't want to be in charge. I didn't want to be the boss. I didn't want to 'make hard decisions'. I love the front-line work.

But I also hate, hate, HATE being told what to do. I hated having shitty managers who had no idea what life was like for me, professionally or personally. I hated getting mandates from the company with no context.

So, the only way I saw to fix that for myself, and the people I work with, was to be the guy in charge.

I hope that clarifies. Because, I'm 100% with you. The worst managers I've ever had have been the people who absolutely, no question, wanted to be nothing but a manager for the title or responsibility and ability to be in charge.
Kind of hard to say they're "meant to be quiet" if opening a program is all it takes to make them... not quiet.
I totally agree with the premise that while technical knowledge is crucial, it shouldn't be the determining factor of whether someone is a Senior Engineer. What is also important is the ability to communicate effectively and mentor other developers.
I'll add to this: A lot of home cooks were taught to add a bit of sugar to the bread to help the yeast. I used to mix yeast, water, and a bit of sugar together to get the yeast started. I mostly did this because I learned to make bread before the internet, and this was common in instructions that I could access.
Let's imagine for a second that I owned a physical bricks-and-mortar business with a shopfront that took physical cash (USD banknotes), then mixed it up in a big laundry machine with banknotes from other customers, and then I give you back some other banknotes which are totally random (less a fee).

Let's also say I don't do any Know Your Customer checks (KYC).

Do you think that should be legal (like highways and SMS) or illegal (like money laundering)?

Not even Google started from scratch. They started from WebKit and used their billions to overhaul, maintain and change everything from the engine to the renderer.

That's what Servo said years ago. I don't see the progress or hype around that anymore.

Maybe Ladybird is different, but overall I'm very skeptical; but an alternative browser that is not Firefox, Chrome or Safari needs a high multi-person and project contribution for it to work.
> Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence, though.

It is evidence for it, but not proof.

There's an essay somewhere out there go into more detail on the matter.

Relevant to the article: is meme-based cognition net beneficial or harmful? What if examined across different dimensions?

Also: is it still net beneficial that humanity invests most of its resources in studying physical reality, or might studying metaphysical reality generate a larger return on investment?

Might there be a way to ~trick humanity into being able to discuss such ideas in a serious manner?
I partially agree. I think this system is useful, but only for very simple spatial data. Having the car project a line one car length ahead and flashing bars synced with the indicators would be a major improvement over a standard unagumented view; however once you start trying to be fancy with symbols, letters, and numbers I feel any improvement in spatial awareness would be canceled out by the extra cognitive power needed to parse those symbols combined with the extreme clutter created by every other car on the road doing the same thing
"Might be used for illegal purposes" is a significant understatement. The chief selling point of Tornado Cash is money laundering, which is in and of itself a crime in both the US and Netherlands.

Normally, there'd be an aspect of plausible deniability: torrent index operators can, for example, rightfully claim that they're facilitating legal filesharing, or that they're entirely agnostic to the content being shared (if all they're doing is sharing URLs). What's key in this case is that law enforcement claims that Pertsev was aware of the crimes his service was being used for. Whether or not that's actually true is up to a court to decide.
I've often thought that government-run "soup kitchens" providing basic nutritional food in small portions should be everywhere - no requirements to eat there, if Bill Gates and Buffet want to have lunch at the free soup kitchen who cares.
You're really saying; banks, money exchanges and hot dog stands have no other utility other than to "wash" money?
This article makes claims without any evidence. I assume they are just repeating marketing copy from Ford et al. In what world would projected symbols from passing cars help pedestrians? Turn signals maybe but the given example of warning surrounding pedestrians about slippery surfaces is laughable.

And then there’s this line: “Touchscreens were intended to reduce the level of distraction”. If anyone actually ever said that, then they were just lying.
Oh, thanks for the correction. I guess I got the incorrect idea that the Fed had access to IRS income data last time I looked at this paper a couple years ago. Hopefully the small sample size doesn’t do too much damage to the accuracy of the “income premium” of college education, and the basic point that people should be aware of the income premium before claiming that education is not worth the cost.
Yes, this will only be useful for servers, workstations, and performance nodes. I heavy doubt this will be useful for generic home computing any time soon.
Alice in Wonderlands, read 10x times when I was still a kid.
I am not sure I see the unbundling here. AI generated art may be a threat to generic stock photography and small jobs for custom blog art, but artists higher up on the food chain now have a new tool for them to use. They can quickly generate a bunch of concepts to tryout ideas, and polish those into a higher quality piece of art than if left to their own devices.
There's tons of perfectly functional corporate e-waste on eBay that supports openwrt, especially cloud-managed crap like Meraki that was junk when it was new. Nobody has any use for out-of-support routers, so really nice hardware (PoE, Wi-Fi 6, etc) can be had for $20 and an hour of pwning the stock image.

I hate on Meraki so much because it's the epitome of something that doesn't need to be a paid subscription except for juicing customers (the hardware is great). Ubiquiti does cloud-managed the right way; you can self host and the hardware isn't bricked if you let maintenance lapse.
Once could argue, we all should care about accessibility, hence we should all care about Semantic HTML.
But other drivers can see it as well. It could easily draw their attention and thus make them more distracted.

I think they meant 'leave the coal in the ground' or use it to make chemical things.

UK has basically phased out coal already for electricity, it's not going to be around much longer and is already a fallback choice. And I think the coal burned was mostly imported anyway.
And? Europe consumes more gas then it produces and thus it has no real control over the price of it.
All those countries, except Scotland and Wales, NI, Mann should do away with the monarchy. The UK may if the whish so, but other countries should have done so a long time ago.
Personally, I think it's within men's power to be attractive to most women. I know because I had that experience between the age of 30-40. But what is attractive is very difficult to achieve for most men, requires a lot of things to go right and a single misstep based on ignorance can set you back enough to be unrecoverable. Not to mention that women are constantly surrounded by men of high status (at work, social media, etc). These are all new problems.
A lot of it is from the natural gas combustion, but the food itself also contributes. The day I got an air quality sensor (to assess risk from wildfire smoke), I realized that my kitchen is basically an asthma factory for the kids. (I haven't actually assessed the risk from that, as its different from wildfires smoke, but j just keep the kids out of the kitchen now until the air clears)
It's not surprising, but I find very cute the fact that the further you are from the center the older the security cameras are.
This is true, it seems like the infinity fabric limits how low AMD cpus can idle. Intel invested pretty heavily in power saving tech during their 4 core

One other thing that hurts AMD here was the x570 chipset. It seems to be a hack job, basically installing the I/O from the CPU upside down and running it as a chipset. IIRC it uses like double the wattage of the x470 chipset it replaced.

Yeah. It's not difficult.

Unless you are poor, that is.
SAP is primarily an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) product. Salesforce does not have an ERP product.

ERP’s are operational efficiency tools that companies use. Core components of ERPs are financial (automating accounting), inventory, transportation management (finding the best route to get physical products from China to the USA for example), amongst other modules.

Some ERP companies have CRMs (Oracle Netsuite I know for sure does), but again Salesforce doesn’t.
intel's following AMD and introducing a "PPT" terminology for the boost value, since they routinely get compared against AMD's (non-boost) TDP values.

even in this thread you see people saying "wow intel pulls 250W against AMD's 105W processors"... when the comparable PPT number for AMD this generation is actually 230W, and their previous-gen number was 145W.

It's a huge marketing disadvantage, just like with node naming for fabs. Intel's 14nm is hugely better than GF 14/12nm or TSMC 16/12nm, and 10ESF is comparable to TSMC 7nm (although much later ofc). When the competitors are playing marketing games, to some extent you just have to start playing them too.

Desktop/HEDT TDPs used to pretty much cover boost clocks, the "tau" concept always officially existed but (eg) 5960X has a 143W idle-to-prime95 power delta as measured by Anandtech, so, the 140W tdp is pretty much sufficient to cover any "normal" non-prime95 AVX load at full boost clock. Similarly 4770K is a 85W TDP on paper and the measured idle-to-prime95 is 88W. Overclocked desktop loads could go higher of course, but most people overrode tau limits anyway in those cases. So in practice, tau limit was pretty much only a thing that existed on laptops in the intel world, because there was always enough TDP available to cover boost clocks, in a stock configuration.

https://images.anandtech.com/graphs/graph8426/67026.png

Then AMD came along with Ryzen and started marketing around base TDPs, and made their boost TDP this other higher number (but it's not a boost TDP guys, it's, uh, PPT, yeah!!!!)... and allowed it to boost to the higher number for an unlimited period of time. 9-series really started pushing it and Tau limits started becoming a problem, but it looks really bad to have a 145W TDP when the competition has 105W... even if it's the same actual power consumption in practive. So over time Intel more or less had to move to the same "TDP/PPT" concept as AMD.

It's really really noxious in laptops where AMD allows processors to boost to 50% (more than the desktop chips even!) above their configured TDP for an unlimited period of time. Yeah partners get to pick the cTDP for the particular laptop, but either way an AMD chip with a 15W cTDP gets to use 50% more power than an Intel with a 15W cTDP, for an unlimited duration, which is a huge functional advantage... basically a 15W AMD laptop is more comparable to a 25W Intel laptop in terms of power draw, and a 25W AMD will pull more power than a 35W Intel. So they move themselves up a whole power bracket through The Magic Of Technical Marketing (tm).

Ah! I see.

Could this be because they pre-transcode to different bitrates, and have to store each version?
Yes, broscience exaggerated the point, but they are not far from correct.

It depends on genetics and the amount and type of PUFA consumed. The Fatty Acid Destaurase genes will dictate how bad short chain PUFA's (Seed oil's) are for a person. These people should stick to fatty fish.

Omega 6 PUFAs are more inflammatory than long chain PUFA's.

It just so happens that most seed oils contain tremendous amounts of Short Chain Omega 6 fatty acids.
Thank you! I’ve installed it and will try it out soon. Looks good.
This is part of the reason why I'm agnostic towards the royal family: I simply have no faith that the process to replace the monarchy would result in something better. I guess I'm claiming my membership of the "better things aren't possible" party here but I'm imagining such a vacuum at the head of state level would be filled with something politically motivated that would be to the detriment of most.
Oh good, thanks for confirming! I am in the same situation as OP and not sure whether I need to buy two devices to start publishing.
I've given up on it dying. It's too entrenched. It does what it needs to in a way that isn't awful for the end user, and the barrier of entry is so low that developers are cheap and plentiful. And it's old enough that the ecosystem is really broad and can do what 99% of people require.

It's all awful code, of course.
