A lot of this stuff is written from the point of view of people pushing changes to a central repository. Git was actually designed from the point of view of people pulling changes between multiple forks and doing that at an enormous scale.

Team clean and team accurate both win here. If your git branch has an ugly history, you'll have a hard time convincing others to pull those ugly changes. They'll throw it back at you and tell you to clean that up using the tools that are available to you. That's why it's called a pull request and not a push demand. You are asking others to pull your changes and merge them.

Open source projects are a lot better at this than corporate projects where it is common for people to huddle around a central repository where everyone has write access like they are still using subversion 20 years ago.

With Linux, the only person that does not have to worry about people upstream from him is Linus Torvalds everybody else is pulling changes from others all the time and they are paranoid about making sure to not rewrite history. You only ever rebase your own changes and only before you share them with anyone else. Linus Torvalds runs a complex network of people from which lots of patches emerge (git patches, that is). If it's not clean, it won't get in. If it's not accurate, it won't get in. And they all pull changes from upstream. So if upstream no longer merges cleanly because you rewrote history on your fork, you have a problem. Simple solution: don't do that.

The linux commit history is an endless sequence of squashed merge commits (and some small commits). Some of them big, some of them small. It's both clean and accurate. And this simplifies the process of pulling those changes for the many forks. torvalds/linux actually has no branches, just an insane amount of forks (45k, and that's just on Github), which of course is the same thing in git. Some of those forks are where maintenance releases are created for older versions of linux.
For creators such as Summoning Salt, YouTube should offer an option to manually review a video _before_ it is made public allowing him to edit it appropriately. After manual review, YouTube should guarantee they won't restrict the video after it's published. They could make this a paid option with a legally binding agreement should either party fail to meet their obligations.

I've never heard of the MPAA slapping a new certification on an already approved movie and if they did, I would imagine lawyers would get involved.
Is your friend Samy Kamkar?
I think the technical term is "patronage". I am not very clear on the details. It is just, the bigger the budget, the more people you need on board pulling for it vs. every other project after the same money. Some people will support you because they agree with your priorities. Others need persuasion. You don't personally have the means for persuasion, but the project does, so it comes from that budget.

Of course, the more persuasion you need, the more it costs, and the more backing you need. So it is usually better to budget less and plan on overruns, instead. And, finishing on time would mean cutting off all those backers; thus, the schedule is overrun, too.

Thing is, most things somebody wants to spend $billions in public money on shouldn't proceed.

The problem is that the economy is not a very valid environment in which get useful & timely feedback. It's therefore almost impossible to become an expert. Moreover I think a large part of sucess is people skills.

But there are certainly some key aspects which do help a lot:

- Start with why(Simon Sinek)

- Move (preferably were there is higher return - similar to hill climbing algorithms)

- Discipline, Focus & Persistence

- Improve your social intelligence

- Learn about power dynamics (Power from Jeffrey Pfeffer)
In Haifa (Israel) there was a staircase race a few years ago, from sea level to the top of the city going up more than 1000 stairs. One version of this was doing it over and over so that the total is the height of the Everest. I'm pretty sure there were several runners who finished that successfully.

Yeah. ZFS on root is the primary reason I'm still continuing to use Ubuntu.

Hopefully the Kubuntu installer decides to incorporate it at some point, so I can just use that for desktops instead of standard Ubuntu with KDE installed afterwards. :)
>The distal cause is simple; the reactors suck. We've been designing them wrong for decades now, and we need to make rethink them from the ground up.

Obviously, the vast majority of nuclear power plants are of the suck type. If you want a regulatory blank slate you are going to have to shut them all down and replace them with good power plants. The regulations are there to deal with the "suck" of the nuclear industry. Get rid of the suck and you will make the nuclear industry very unhappy, in other words the legacy nuclear power industry is exactly the problem that drives regulations and costs up.

This is where Apple's implementation, where the info is split between them and a third party with neither of them able to read the traffic on their own is so smart. Especially since there are multiple counter-parties to Apple. It also negates the risk of an MITM attack. Yes of course they could collaborate with a counter-party to break the system, but it seems significantly less likely to happen, and if it was happening it would be significantly more likely to come to light.

Bruce also has 5 Daughters and given his Aphasia, his acting career is essentially over. "Selling out" with the Geezer Teaser movies and this deep fake thing to give his daughters and family as much money as possible is a brilliant move and far from being handled. It's quite the opposite, I strongly suspect he is very aware he's doing this plans to retire once the gravy train runs out. But since he make a 1-1.5 Million a pop for a Geezer Teaser and who knows how much for this deep fake thing he is still continuing.

And honestly, if true I congratulate him for it, he's setting up his family and children for live while ruining his "good name" in Hollywood without a second thought. Many actors would be too vain to go that route.
Sure. There is no great mystery to slavery either, it's a very straightforward concept.

To be fair Meloni belonged to a neo fascist group when she was young, and has publicly expressed admiration for Mussolini.

The term fascism is often misused, but I’d say not this time.
Oh I’m sure Putin pinky promised it was all just for security and he would go no further. If you fall for that crap, that’s the doormat strategy.

There is a line and to the right of the line Putin gets to have his way, and to the left he does not. That’s the border and if Putin remains behind his border he has nothing to fear. He has not been attacked, he has attacked.

Every Russian who can afford it prefers to spend as much time as possible in the west they paint as so decadent. It should be clear that whatever the rhetoric the Russians yearn for the freedom of the west and that’s dangerous for a dictator like Putin. But that is not to blame on the west, that is to blame on Putins dictatorship and is for him to deal with. Inside his borders.

If he wants a neutral zone between his territory and the west, he’s free to build it inside his borders. It’s ridiculous to think he gets to claim a sovereign nation for his own political plays.

And at the end of the line, countries are sovereign in their own borders which are defined as the part they can successfully defend. It’s pretty clear Russia has overextended its reach and now that its bluff has been called it should be happy if its tiresome nuclear threats suffice for keeping its borders as they were before they took Crimea. Perhaps if he comes to his senses quickly the west will even let Putin remain on his throne. Until he gets deposed by his own people, of course.
Tcl is another well-established language which has had full coroutine support for 10 years now. As with Lua, a Tcl coroutine has to explicitly yield for execution to switch to another coroutine. I would not see preemptive scheduling of coroutines as an advantage, it opens up all the unsafe concurrency issues you get with threads, but without getting threads' advantage of running on multiple cores to compensate. Coroutines in Tcl also integrate cleanly with the existing event system, this allows writing event-driven code without the awkwardness of control inversion, also known as callback hell.
Running multiple services on Dokku (and have them talk to each other)
Recently I was trying to spin up 2 Go services next to my main Django web app. I didn't want to leave Dokku, so this is how I get to enjoy Dokku's simplicity on a polyglot stack.
I'm working on an app that focuses on the "rituals" you mentioned, so I've been thinking a lot along these lines too.

Things and other similar apps are great for one-off tasks that possibly need to be done in the future ... the power to say "I want to do this in 3 weeks" but not have to think about it until then is hard to beat, and hard to properly articulate until you've experienced it. At the same time they aren't as good for routines where you want to tick off the same set of tasks every time, especially when the routine doesn't happen very often.

The app is in _very_ early alpha at the moment, but I'd love feedback if you're willing to give it a shot: https://checklists.fyi

in 1997 me and best friend ran Intel's DRG game lab at SC5, and had a huge lab for proving that a $1,000 gaming machine was possible - specifically on Celeron Procs...

We subjectively tested out all games and AGP, and the first iter of Unreal... in order to determine if the optimized instructions were actually working v AMD procs... such that Intel would give the gaming company $1,000,000 in marketing money to promote how much better their machines ran the games...

Thank you for your comment.
But they are expensive. And look dated. And everybody is using touchscreens.
When i first started programming in Basic on a PDP11 i wrote a program with a password embedded in it but it included deletion of the characters and typing over them with hashes as part of the password.

If you listed the program on the terminal it printed, deleted and printed hashes fast enough you could not read it, and if you printed out to the printer, it printed fast enough you could not read it and hashed out well enough you could not read it either..

>> It strikes me that people from the city have completely lost their sense of seasons and cycles. In the city you can’t really tell what season it is, and you’re not very aware of cyclicity, there’s not much of a difference between day and night, and the cycle of life and death isn’t very visible. Death, whether human or animal, is pushed away and kept out of sight. Another thing is a strange desire for sterility, which we see in some of the people who visit here. A requirement that anything human or social be kept strictly separate from what’s natural. Example: people come out here on a field trip, and a mom lets her kid play in the grass. What she’s familiar with is a close-cropped lawn with no insects or organic remnants. The kid gets stung by a bee, then falls into some chicken poop, and the mom gets upset with us for not having kept things properly separate. People want to enjoy the country, but without smells, blood, and suffering. Like going to the zoo, where everything is behind glass, it doesn’t smell, and you live in the illusion that the animals are just fine, but you don’t see what’s happening behind the scenes. I think the zoo is a good example of how people feel about nature.

Such a nice perspective I didn't expect.

Great stuff! No need for speed, just for enjoyment.
Surely they should be asking creators whether they classify their vids as kid friendly?

For young kids I wouldn't want any swearing or other allusions to adult themes (not that I want my young kids watching YouTube).

If you want to aim at young kids the rules should be a lot stricter than the current ones.

The current mess is too lax for young kids and too strict for anyone older. And seems to treat educational and entertainment content equally. I want kids to know about the Holocaust. I don't want them watching a possibly racist comedy sketch about gassing Jews though.
Indeed. Older, 'hackable' pumps actually sell for a substantial premium.
Intuit has no relevance if you don’t live in the US
Actually, scratch that (can't edit anymore) - looking closer at what you linked to, this appears to be a perfectly fine, data-capable USB 2.0 cable. It's just not a fully featured cable capable of Thunderbolt, and connecting two Macbooks is a feature that relies on Thunderbolt and doesn't work over USB. So, it's just like I said in my initial reply.

Really, unless you need to get the highest bandwidth available from latest USB standards, it's not that complicated at all. In most non-Thunderbolt cases, all you need to know is whether your cable is USB 2.0 only or not - and Thunderbolt cables tend to be obviously marked as such.

There's no difference between investing and trading for the average retail stock market dabbler. Anytime you trade money for a stock, you are speculating that the asset will go in the direction you want, mostly up. If someone is looking through financial statements and has intimate knowledge of the industry, more power to you since you are more likely to be the classical definition of an investor.

I can give you loads and loads of examples where you could have held and suffered much greater losses over time. Last year I "invested" in $FSLY. Look at the stock performance. It would need to go up 900% to get back to its 2021 peak. Can it happen? Sure. Would you buy the stock thinking it could do a 900%?
Aptly written. Yes, that's exactly what I meant. Thank you.

@mbrodersen I don't disagree with you. But at this stage I'm just trying to be content with whatever I have. I like my job, hopefully that's not going to be impacted. Just trying to take a break from overthinking.
it is the responsibility of a good interviewer that GP leaves the room having learned something. If GP left this interview still not knowing what a state machine is (or what the interviewer thinks a state machine is) or no closer to an implementation of a state machine then the interviewer has failed as much as the candidate.

I strongly disagree. An interview is an assessment, not a tutorial.

I have spent many days searching for the best JavaScript implementation of full text search that handles typos (substitutions) well. Implementing a good indexing algorithm for this is not easy. In particular if you are indexing large amounts of text (documents) instead of short strings.

I settled on MiniSearch. [0] It is fast & small enough and fairly feature complete.

Afterwards I made a few contributions to improve performance and implement a better scoring algorithm. So I'm probably a bit biased now. Take my recommendation with a grain of salt.

Personally I think that OP's library does not perform searches, fuzzy or otherwise. It's much more similar to 'grep'. Try searching for "mario adventures". It won't actually find the most obvious results, because the order of the keywords in the search string must match the order of the keywords in the indexed text.

> YouTube should offer an option to manually review a video _before_ it is made public

They already have a system like that, but the process is pretty crappy, for the reasons you outline:

- Youtube might add additional restrictions at any point without justification, so the early vetting process doesn't guarantee that the video is clear.

- Youtube requires that the video be set to "Limited" and vetters don't have access to "Private" videos (I think, I don't remember the exact details) which impacts viewing statistics of the video (basically Youtube thinks nobody watched the video for a while after its release and therefore it's not worth promoting).

I think "guarantee they won't restrict the video" isn't workable at Youtube's scale, but at the very least they should guarantee a proportional monetary compensation if additional restrictions are added after the fact.
I believe this happens more often than we think. It's nice to have some balance in life. I'm guessing only a few lucky ones truly get it right.
Firefox, with its full complement of full-time developers, could stay alive with a tiny fraction of what Mozilla earns in a year. Most of Mozilla's work is tangential to Firefox at best.
